Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey PEDEOCast with your host, Dmitri

Filipovich.

Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast.

My name's Dmitra Filipovich and joining me for the second show of the day is my good buddy, Jack Hahn. Jack, what's going on, man?

So we're looking forward to some actual hockey. It'll be fun. Round two is in the books, conference finals, kickoff on Tuesday evening, exciting times. It's not only a pair of great matchups, but I love the conference finals.

You get one game every night.

You get to really focus in on it.

I feel like this is our opportunity to shine, and it all starts here by getting everyone

ready.

Today we're going to do some series previews for both the West and the East Final, you know, dig into what to look

for, tactical things we've seen so far this postseason, strengths and weaknesses, key

head-to-head matchups, all that good stuff. Let's start with Oilers' stars, a rematch of last

year's West Final, obviously two different teams this year in terms of a lot of new personnel,

especially for the stars.

What's the thing you're keying on here in this matchup in terms of either the most

interesting component or a strength for its weakness or kind of an exploitable area for

either team?

So I'm really excited for this one because, as you mentioned,

both teams have very noticeable strength and weaknesses.

And over a seven game series,

it's going to be the team that finds the other team's weakness with their strength better.

That's going to come out on top,
