Here's your host, Duane Calendar.

Welcome to the show everyone.

Got quite a bit going on with the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs and the

NBA playoffs so I'm just going to give my thoughts on what I've seen thus far I mean and to begin I'm going to just start off with the

NHL just because I want to talk about that more just how interesting these

series look because realistically you, everyone was talking about Toronto after they beat the lightning,

but this was the caveat of, you know, you get the big win, but sometimes for certain teams, that second

round is harder than the first round because they almost have to play as the favorite as opposed to everyone expecting

them to lose now Toronto's got pressure on them and it's showing because not

only are they losing to the Florida Panthers it's pretty decisive how they're losing in my opinion

Barrowski stole game two but even if you look at it the pace of play was still favoring what Florida wants to do as opposed to what

Toronto wants to do which is force power plays and kind of get Florida on their back heels

It wasn't necessarily that you You know, they're throwing

pucks on net at Bobrowski, but they're not necessarily putting Florida. So yeah,

the shot disparity is favoring Toronto but it's not the pace of play to me isn't really

dictating concerns of what the what Florida has to worry about so to me this I mean again this feels as though

Florida is in the driver's seat and you know I look at this you

Toronto drops the first two at home they got to go into Florida

I don't like how this is looking for Toronto. I think maybe they get one game out of Florida
