    Stanley Cup Playoff Preview with Jeff Marek & Steven Ellis

    The playoff picture is set—and we’re diving all the way in. We kick things off with a brand new listener bracket, before getting into front office movement around the league. What’s next for Vancouver? Is the job Ryan Johnson’s to lose, or are the Canucks casting a wider net? Plus, Sunny Mehta lands in New Jersey, and we check in on the latest rumblings in Toronto—including a surprising Mats Sundin mention. Then it’s all about the playoffs. If you could only watch one series, which would it be? We make our picks and start breaking down the most compelling matchups—including potential upsets in the Pacific with young, rising teams like Anaheim and Utah. Steven Ellis joins for The Next Wave to spotlight the names you need to know: Jacob Dobes, Ivan Demidov, Beckett Sennecke, Matthew Savoie, Porter Martone, and more. We dig into the youth movement in Montreal, debate which prospect has impressed most between Martone and Zayne Parekh/Kindel, and look at how Savoie fits into the Oilers’ plans. We also preview the “Battle of Pennsylvania,” highlight must-watch storylines across the bracket, and take your questions in #AskDFO. To wrap things up: betting angles with bet365, early Conn Smythe and Stanley Cup odds, and a little Garbage Time—including Macklin Celebrini chasing history (and yes, bottle sprays are discussed). 👍🏼Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.

Plus, we dive into a fascinating trend surrounding the Colorado Avalanche and their push toward the 120-point mark. Connor McDavid officially captures another Art Ross Trophy, tying for the second-most scoring titles in NHL history. How many more scoring titles could he realistically win — and what does that mean for his legacy? We also discuss Rick Bowness’ future in Columbus following recent reports, and whether the Chicago Blackhawks could realistically take a step toward becoming a playoff team next season. With the NHL Draft Lottery now set, the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers lock into 28th and 29th overall odds — but which franchise needs lottery luck more?

    Bones Has Beef In Columbus & More Eastern Matchups Get Locked In

    Welcome to Daily Faceoff Live! Rick Bowness didn’t hold back. After Game 82, Bowness publicly called out the Columbus Blue Jackets — and now the big question is what changes could be coming in Columbus this summer. We break down what went wrong and which moves could reshape the Blue Jackets heading into next season. In the Western Conference, injury concerns are already creating uncertainty. The Dallas Stars will be without Roope Hintz for Games 1 and 2, and Miro Heiskanen’s status remains unclear. How much does this shift the balance in the Stars vs Wild series — and does Minnesota suddenly become the favorite? We also rank the NHL’s biggest disappointments and debate which teams — Toronto, Winnipeg, Nashville, Detroit, and New Jersey — will look the most different next season. In The Film Room, we take a closer look at key playoff matchups, including Pittsburgh vs Philadelphia and Montreal vs Tampa Bay. Which teams hold the biggest advantages, and what will it take for underdogs to pull off an upset? 👍🏼Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.

    Welcome to Daily Faceoff Live! The NHL playoff picture is officially set — and the Los Angeles Kings and Philadelphia Flyers are heading to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. We break down the Kings clinching their fifth straight playoff berth and what it means for the Western Conference, plus the fallout from the Nashville Predators missing the postseason. Could we be headed for another Oilers vs Kings showdown? In the East, the Flyers have officially punched their ticket and locked in a first-round matchup with the Pittsburgh Penguins. We share early thoughts on the series and what could decide the outcome. Plus, the Buffalo Sabres clinch the Atlantic Division for the first time since the 2009-10 season.

    50-Goal Cole & The Penguins Are Back In The Playoffs!

    Cole Caufield has made history in Montreal — and the playoff picture continues to shift across the NHL. Today we break down Cole Caufield becoming the first Montreal Canadien since 1990 to score 50 goals in a season, and what his milestone says about the Canadiens' growing depth — including another strong season from Juraj Slafkovský. We also take a look at the Ottawa Senators inching closer to a playoff berth, with their odds climbing to 92% after a key win — while Detroit’s late push might be coming just a little too late. Plus, the Pittsburgh Penguins are back in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2021–22. We dive into what fueled their turnaround, Sidney Crosby’s motivation to bring playoff hockey back to Pittsburgh, and why this team might be more dangerous than expected — even if some of their success raises sustainability questions. 👍🏼Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.

    Ducks Slide Continues and Blue Jackets Stay Alive

    The playoff race is tightening across the NHL, and the pressure is starting to show. The Edmonton Oilers continue to hold their ground in the Pacific, but all eyes are on the Anaheim Ducks as their late-season slide raises serious questions about whether they can hang on. With teams like Los Angeles pushing, the division race is far from settled. In the Eastern Conference, the Columbus Blue Jackets keep their slim playoff hopes alive with another big result, while the Detroit Red Wings face growing uncertainty after costly late-game performances. We take a closer look at the wild card picture and ask which potential 8-seed could actually make noise in the first round. We also dive into some major offseason storylines already starting to form, including what could be a busy summer for the New Jersey Devils and Toronto Maple Leafs. From roster decisions to key departures, there’s plenty to unpack as teams look ahead. Plus, with fresh headlines surrounding Alex Ovechkin, we revisit the big question—will he be back next season? And in the Islanders segment, we break down what recent changes could mean for the team. 👍🏼Powered by @bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.

    Big Changes In New Jersey: Devils Fire Fitzgerald

    The New Jersey Devils make a major front-office shakeup, firing Tom Fitzgerald after missing the playoffs in four of the last six seasons — and now the pressure shifts to what comes next. We break down where things went wrong, including the key roster decisions that defined his tenure, and debate the big question: what are the chances Sheldon Keefe ends up behind the Devils bench next season? Plus, the ripple effects around the league could just be getting started. Could more general manager changes be on the horizon before summer, and which teams — including Detroit — should be watched closely? We also hit the biggest games on the slate, including crucial matchups for San Jose, Los Angeles, and Nashville that could shape the playoff picture. On the Toronto front, the Leafs add Neil Glasberg to help lead their front office, raising new questions about Brendan Shanahan’s future, the Predators’ GM search, and what the latest buzz means for Toronto’s long-term direction. Plenty of moving pieces — and this could be just the beginning. 👍🏼Powered by @bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout. When your team goes up three, you get paid.
