00:00Colorado's in Tampa against the Lightning, the Caps and the Panthers down in Sunrise.

00:07Nashville is in New Jersey against the Devils.

00:10The Blues are at the Garden against the Rangers.

00:13So the Blues, on their New York trip, fired their coach and they immediately hired Montgomery

00:20who was fired by the Bruins a couple of days prior.

00:23Yeah, it's always good, Joe, and I think that's the second or third time in a row that's happened

00:27to the Bruins.

00:28If you fire your coach and someone else hires him less than a week later, that usually means

00:33he's probably a pretty good coach and well-respected around the league and you might make a mistake.

00:38And also the guy was like 30 games over 500 in the regular season as Bruin coach.

00:43So Montgomery wasn't out of work quick.

00:44He'll make his Blue debut tonight at the Garden.

00:47Yeah, and I believe it worked for Boston, though, as crazy as it was.

00:51I think they won that first game out after they fired him.

00:54And like you said here, St. Louis fires him, hires their new coach.

00:58Sure, I'll take St. Louis tonight.

01:00No problem.

01:01I'll also take the Florida Panthers here tonight who have lost three straight, five of their

01:07last six.

01:09And I can't think of any better way to get back on track than to play this Washington

01:14team minus Ovechkin, which in fact Florida has won the last 10 meetings between these

01:19two teams.

01:20I'll take the Panthers in regulation and get it back on track.

01:25Heavy hitter game tonight in Carolina.

01:26You don't get the stars at plus money very often, but you're doing it tonight.

01:31Two of the best Dallas and Carolina getting together.

01:33The Islanders are at the horse track against Detroit.

01:36Remember they lost to them last week as they did what they usually do, give up a goal in

01:40the final minute to lose.

01:42Winnipeg and Minnesota together tonight.

01:43Vegas still out, Easter in Philadelphia.

01:46I think I'm with you, Joe, with this Dallas team with a little plus money.

01:50Yeah.

01:51And Carolina's lost what, two in a row now?

01:53They're already down their top goalie, right?

01:55Frederick Anderson is gone.

01:58They're going to have their backup I think has also suffered an injury there in overtime

02:03on Saturday.

02:04So yeah, not looking good for Carolina here.

02:07I like Dallas.

02:08And there are some late night games in California.

02:11There you go.

02:12You have the Kraken and the Ducks, the Kings and the Sharks.

02:14I like the Sharks at home tonight with that fat number to upset the Kings.

02:19The Sharks have been playing some pretty good hockey.
