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

Filipovich.

Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast.

My name is Dimitri Filippovich, and joining me is good buddy, Jack Khan. Jack, what's going on, man?

So, final four time. It is final four time. Indeed. We've taken this journey together so far. We started off before round one. We had to preview 16 different teams. It was quite the exercise. Now we whittled it down to the final four. And it's a fitting final four

because, in my opinion, they're comfortably the best teams in each of their divisions. They're

representing respectively. So it's going to make for a really fun conference finals. And the plan for

today is for you and I to do what we've done before every round. We're going to hopefully get people

ready for the conference finals by just loading you up with as much information as we can. Everything you need to know

about the matchups, what to look for when you're watching the games and all that good stuff. So

we'll break them down one at a time. And let's start up with the E-Series, Panthers, Rangers. I was just

saying to you before we went on the air that I got to the office this morning.

I started doing my notes, doing my prep, getting into it. And I was actually a bit surprised

to find that I just had more stuff to say, I think, on Panthers Rangers. I think it's a very

fascinating matchup. I'm really excited to dive into it with you. Certainly, we'll have a lot on

on Stars Oilers in part in the second half of today's show as

well.

But let's start off with that one.

What is the most interesting part of Panthers Rangers to you, either from what you saw

from them in round two or just kind of how you figure they stack up against each other

head to head?

So my pick to come out of the east originally was Carolina, and obviously they lost the Rangers.
