First Round Matchups By The Numbers + Flames Final Push

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne welcome in MSG analyst Steve Valiquette (6:11) to dig into the potential goaltending matchup between the Maple Leafs and Ottawa Senators, how goalscoring changes in the postseason, which teams have improved their defence against the rush, how Mattias Ekholm's absence affects Stuart Skinner in net and whether Connor Hellebuyck can find postseason success with 60+ games under his belt. Then, Cory Sarich, former NHLer and Calgary Flames analyst stops by (30:55) to chat about Calgary's chances of sneaking into the playoffs and what they'll need to prioritize when they reach the offseason. Finally, Nick, Justin and Sam McKee discuss Darnell Nurse's game misconduct, Ivan Demidov's eventful debut in Montreal and Gabriel Landeskog getting called back up to the Avalanche ahead of Game 1.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
