The NHL playoff race is heating up and there’s a lot to unpack.

We kick off the podcast discussing the Olympics and growing injury concerns for Team USA and Sweden — and how international play could impact NHL teams as the season hits its most important stretch.

The Minnesota Wild are rolling, but questions remain. Do they need a true center to make a deep playoff run? And could a goalie be moved at the trade deadline to make it happen?

We also dive into how the game is analyzed differently depending on camera angles and perspectives, and debate how the NHL could improve its broadcasts to better serve fans and players.

The Buffalo Sabres look primed to bring playoff hockey back to Buffalo, creating separation from the Florida Panthers in the Eastern Wild Card race — but are they ready for the pressure?
