Nazem Kadri answers threats with epic Game 4 hat trick, Tampa Bay Lightning sweep Florida Panthers, looking ahead to Hurricanes-Rangers and Flames-Oilers, favorite backup goalies in NHL history, and more

No Ian? No Hailey? No worries! First up, guest cohosts Julian McKenzie and Sean Gentille break down Nazem Kadri’s legendary performance for the Colorado Avalanche in Game 4 against the St. Louis Blues, scoring his first career playoff hat trick en route to a 6-3 Avs win, and 3-1 series lead, and discuss the racist threats and backlash he faced after his controversial collision with Blues goalie Jordan Binnington in Game 3, as well as reports that the Florida Panthers partied into the wee hours of the morning at a strip club following their Game 3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, and more.

Then, The Athletic’s Joe Smith joins the show to talk about the two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning eliminating the Florida Panthers in their first sweep of the Jon Cooper era, Andrei Vasilevskiy playing at the height of his powers right now, a potentially long layoff for the Lightning before the start of the Eastern Conference Final, the latest on Brayden Point’s injury, and more.

Plus, the guys wrap things up looking ahead to tonight’s pair of pivotal Game 4s between the Carolina Hurricanes and New York Rangers and the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers, and reveal the answers to the Twitter question of the day: who are your favorite backup goalies in NHL history?
