Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hour 2 Overdrive continues. Powered by FanDuel. Bringing you everything from the opening line to the final score. Brian Hayes, Jamie Noodles, McLennan, Dave Festruck of the Toronto Star. Jay's Cavs tonight. Habs Lightning tonight.
Chapter 2: What are the highlights of the Stanley Cup Playoffs discussed?
Oilers in Anaheim tonight. You're going to see Vegas and Utah. I guess the owner down in Utah is... asking people in the market to exchange Golden Knight jerseys for Mammoth jerseys.
Did you see the lineup of that, too?
Yeah.
Did you see the lineup down the street? I don't know. Who's a Vegas Golden Knight fan that's like, okay, I'm just going to go trade my jersey in for a brand new... But I guess you would because the Golden Knights have been around for like...
Ten years. How big of a stranglehold can they have on Salt Lake City? That's a good question. It is.
That Ryan Smith's done a good job there in Utah. I've been there a few times. I played there twice in pro hockey in the 90s. It's a decent setup, smaller market, but there's lots of money there, lots of money.
Well, the Jazz aren't very good, so the Mammoth have an opportunity there in that market.
It's amazing the impression you can make just with a few little social media clips, like that one where he's walking through the parking lot shaking hands with people and just looking like a regular guy, even though he's a regular billionaire. That goes a long way, right?
And you kind of contrast that with the way Tom Dundon, who owns the Carolina Hurricanes and now is introducing himself to the fans in Portland as the new owner of the NBA Trailblazers. And they're pissed at him. They can't stand this guy around. He's putting his foot in his mouth every five minutes, right? And all the little nickel and dime stuff.

Chapter 3: What are the next steps for the Maple Leafs' front office?
Well, the smart money would be two. One team would be up 2-1 because I gave both options. I don't think they both win. Probably not. Those are toss-up series, so for them to both win is about a 25% chance. But for one of them to win, it's probably a 75% chance. So I look at it that way. Tampa at Montreal is exactly what we expected. Very close, very tight, very physical and chippy.
Tampa trying to assert their will. Montreal pushing back. Montreal star players got to probably get a bit more effective five-on-five to win this series. And Tampa, or at Edmonton-Anaheim, guys, that one is fascinating to me because if Edmonton doesn't win tonight, Then it's like, wait a second time.
I think we are all so confident in Edmonton because of their past and not as much because of their present that we are giving them the benefit of the doubt that they will figure it out. McDavid will get it going. They'll just find a way because they've been really good. If they lose tonight, go down 2-1, going into Game 4 in Anaheim, It's a way different conversation for the Oilers tomorrow.
But, I mean, yeah. So I guess I'll say one of the two teams will win tonight.
I mean, when you make it... Sorry, Dave. Sorry, go ahead. Follow that quickly. Do you think McDavid has a chance to... I mean, at some point he's going to pop. Do you not think?
How's the ankle, though, right? Or whatever it is. Yeah. We'll find out tonight.
I'm showing videos.
He wasn't hurting there. He was... He was limping. He was grimacing. I mean, he played and did his postgame and stuff, but he was bothered by it at the very least. It's been strange watching him because, you know, he's been fine. He's been better than fine. He's been excellent. But by his crazy standards, there's been some puck play that has been...
uncharacteristic of him not just the giveaway while shorthanded that allowed the paling goal but just some of his own entries haven't been as seamless as they usually are for him so of course i'm going to say yes he averages like 2.3 points per game against the ducks the last 10 years so you'd assume it's coming but i don't know i mean it hasn't yet and

Chapter 4: How is Connor McDavid performing in the playoffs?
Exactly. Down the court side for a game. All right, Keith Pelley at five. Who do you have at four?
Boy, I got a guy the Blue Jays sorely miss right now who's, to me, the heart and soul of this team that went to the World Series last year, and it's George Springer. Okay. I mean, we're six years in.
When I think about people who love this team, that I know people walking down the street, when I watch the crowd walking into the Blue Jays game from Union Station on a regular basis, you know, Springer's a jersey you see a lot of. And when you think about iconic moments... I mean, the Springer-Dinger in Game 7 of the ALCS last year, that's right up there in franchise lore.
Chapter 5: What are the key factors affecting the Senators' playoff performance?
And this team, that team, that did what it did and got as close as you could ever get to winning without winning, to me, he was the engine that drove it for a lot of that season.
Yeah, he had a phenomenal year. They're missing him desperately. I guess there was a report he's put his house up for sale. That's right.
I was joking earlier. I mean, you're allowed to move.
Well, his deal's up too, right? Exactly. He's not a young guy. He's not from Toronto. He's not planning, I would guess, to spend the rest of his life here. That doesn't mean it's definitive he's not coming back or they're not going to resign him. But I don't think it's a guarantee they will. There's no guarantee. George isn't a young guy.
And prior to last year, two years ago, they were like, how do we get out from underneath this contract? It's not going so well for us. So, yeah, I like that. George at four. Again, that's a big shift. This time last year, George was nowhere close to the top five. Nowhere close. But you have a magical season like he did. Yeah. You mentioned that home run in the seventh inning, game seven.
That is going to live around here for the rest of the time.
Yeah, and we're talking about the faces of the moment, right? Absolutely. We're not talking about the all-time faces here. I like it.
We're talking about the faces of the moment. Okay, Springer at four. Who do you have at three?
At three, we have Mr. Scotty Barnes. Okay, interesting. And, you know, to me, like last night, this is a little bit of recency bias maybe, but last night to me, like he put that team on his back and said, you know what, you know, there's a scheme here. Like Darko wants us to pass, pass, pass, pass, pass. And there's a game plan. But my plan, the best player on this team's plan,
