Was this the best first-round weekend in NHL playoff history?
About this episode
This year’s Stanley Cup playoffs opening round closed with a pair of thrilling Game 7’s, beginning Saturday night with Mikko Rantanen and the Dallas Stars ousting the Colorado Avalanche in stunning fashion and ending Sunday night with the Winnipeg Jets making a miracle comeback to eliminate the St. Louis Blues in double overtime in the third-longest Game 7 in NHL history. Max and Laz break down both games and then close the show with a quick look at all four second-round matchups, including the latest Stanley Cup odds from our friends at BetMGM.
