Pete and Rob are joined by guest Nick Alberga of Sportsnet to break down the first three days of the Stanley Cup Playoffs with storylines, injury updates, surprises and leanings on each series. The guys discuss the return of elite wing Nikita Kucherov and the Lightning’s futures appeal with their big five healthy. The guys react to Chris Driedger getting the call and Sam Bennett being suspended for Game 2, big performances from rookie goalies Alex Nedeljkovic and Ilya Sorokin and why the Golden Knights have been struggling to finish games when they have 40+ shots. The guys are also joined by Action Network betting analyst Michael Leboff for his Tuesday and Wednesday picks and insight on why the Islanders are undervalued so often in the playoff betting landscape.
