Canadiens dominate, but lose in Game 2 vs Lightning, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins signs extension with Oilers, and more

Ian Mendes and Sean McIndoe discuss Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday and Blake Coleman's soul-crushing goal in the last moments of the 2nd period. If the Lightning do go back to back, is it time to consider them a dynasty? Also, Ryan Nugent Hopkins' extension with the Edmonton Oilers, is this contract a sign of things to come for a softer market this summer?

Then, Jesse Granger hops on to discuss the evolution of betting lines over the season for the top four NHL Awards categories, the duo hit the mailbag to discuss expanded playoffs and cross-checking, and in "This Week in Hockey History" a look back at fascinating trade drama involving Eric Lindros and more.
