| 0:00.0 | Is Felgrin-Maz your favorite afternoon show? |
| 0:03.6 | Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. |
| 0:06.8 | Oh, Belgar and Mazz. |
| 0:12.5 | The Gets for Joey, checked on the play. |
| 0:18.0 | Puck cleared, empty net. |
| 0:20.2 | Dylan Cousins to Pinto, and back to Cousins to wrap up the season. |
| 0:25.6 | The Ottawa Senators will head into the playoffs on a very positive winning note. |

| 2:05.8 | After losing last night, the Maple Leafs finished the year with seven straight losses, |
