DESPERATION: The Islanders Fire Patrick Roy While the Jets and Blue Jackets Battle for the Playoffs

The New York Islanders fired head coach Patrick Roy on Sunday and replaced him with veteran Peter DeBoer in a last ditch attempt to make the playoffs.

JD Young asks Gil Martin what this means for the Islanders short term and long term and why Roy was let go with just four games left in the regular season.

The Winnipeg Jets were left for dead at the Olympic break but have finished the season strong and are now battling for one of the final playoff spots in the West.

Harrison Lee of Locked On Winnipeg Jets joins us to discuss what's behind the late season surge and what it will take for the Jets to get into the playoffs.

The Columbus Blue Jackets were the hottest team in the league a month ago but have since stumbled and hit a wall as they battle for one of the final playoff spots in the Eastern Conference.

Jay Forster of Locked On Blue Jackets joins us to break down why the team is slumping and what it will take to turn things around before it's too late.
