Summary

Jeff and Elliotte discuss interesting rule changes in the Champions League, people griping about a team like the Panthers getting to the Cup final and how the NHL needs to be aware of its “golden goose” (1:12). Next, the guys talk about the winning goal between the Panthers and Hurricanes, why they didn’t think Jordan Staal should have been penalized late in the game and Matthew Tkachuk being a big-game player (8:10). In closing, Jeff and Elliotte weigh in on what Carolina’s off-season plans look like, which goalie they decide to keep and some news and notes around coaching and GM searches (20:34). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
