Chapter 1: Who are the hosts and guests featured on The Hockey Show Playoff Preview?
Chapter 2: What are the key Stanley Cup Playoff matchups this season?
This isn't on the show. No, that's just Jason. That's Jason's way of telling everybody to shut the fuck up. Sorry. It is playoff time, ladies and gentlemen. Stanley Cup playoffs starts this weekend. This is the Hockey Show. My name is Roy Bellamy. That's David Dwork, Hockey News. Rosie and Ethan in the other studio. Playoffs! Playoffs are here. Yes! Here are the matchups.
Toronto, Ottawa, Tampa, Florida, Washington, Montreal, Carolina, New Jersey, in the West, Winnipeg, St. Louis, Dallas, Colorado, Vegas, Minnesota, and... Los Angeles and Edmonton.
When was the last one again?
Los Angeles and Edmonton. What year is it? Four.
Oh, my gosh. I'm excited, though. I think the Kings are going to do it this year. Oh, wow. That would be great. It's right off the bat.
I want to pick them so bad, and I just can't bring myself to do it. Because hasn't everybody said for the last three years, now this is the year the Kings are going to do it. They're going to take down the Oilers. I don't know. And then Drysaddle scored 54 goals or whatever it was this year, and McDavid 100 points is in in like 70 games.
The good news, if the Kings make it, the Oilers don't. So we don't have to go.
We don't have to go to Edmonton.
Yeah, exactly.

Chapter 3: What are the highlights from the end of the NHL regular season?
I have a question. So these two guys, their team is the Panthers undeniably. Which one is your team? Is your team the Oilers, DJ, and Pete yours? I don't know which one.
It's the Bruins, right, Pete? My other Bruins, they are nowhere to be found over the next couple of months. So don't have to worry about that.
Oh, that's why you hate Marchand.
I don't hate Marchand. Pete hates Marchand.
No, he doesn't hate Marchand.
I love Marchand.
We have Marchand now. You guys are on a full rebuild now, aren't you?
Yeah, I would say that. The front office says no. They say it's a retool and it might be a hybrid retool rebuild, but there's not a whole lot to look forward to at this point. So I would call that a rebuild.
Are you supposed to have your second round pick when you're in a rebuild or do you not need those? I don't know. I'm not in charge of rebuilds. Right. But I'm saying like they're entering this rebuild and the only thing they have, they have some later picks and everything. They have like second round picks that are later in the round. Like they don't even have their own second round pick.
