Matt Marchese and Mike Futa dive into this edition of The FAN Hockey Show looking back on Wednesday's playoff-style battle between the Canucks and Flames with Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman. They discuss key factors that swung the game in Vancouver's favour, Quinn Hughes' comments about his team's captain Elias Pettersson, and Connor Zary's pending hearing. Friedge weighs in on the Panthers' road ahead with a shorthanded lineup and how they stack up in tonight's clash with the Maple Leafs, before zooming out on the NHL playoff format and discussing if it needs a change. The trio wrap up with thoughts on tonight's battle between former Bruins tandem Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman, Brad Marchand leaving the door open for a potential return to Boston, and Seattle's victory over Montreal in overtime.
