00:00As first of all Islanders, you know, I buried a few weeks ago really I thought rightfully so but they've come back

00:06From the dead. They've now won six in a row. They shut out the flyers three nothing in philly last night

00:11Another shutout for sorokin islanders are getting contributions all over the place right now, which is amazing to see

00:17Uh when you consider where they were a few weeks back

00:21But now sitting with 53 points only four back of that last playoff spot

00:25They jumped a few teams last night with montreal and the rangers. So suddenly the islanders

00:30After a really strong homestand have themselves in the mix, uh to do some damage elsewhere last night

00:36Winnipeg goes into boston six to win for them. Uh, no problem whatsoever, man

00:41The bruins have really had a rough year. They're now falling out

00:44Of a playoff spot sitting at 56 points. They're uh, five

00:48They've lost two games in a row both those games at home games that they should have won

00:53Uh, you know look well winnipeg's a tough squad but still boston has been so miserable on home ice this year

00:59Uh hard to believe next up from last night

01:03What a scene in montreal

01:05As the wild beat, uh, the canadians for nothing, but marc-andre flurry was the story

01:09We know that he's going to be retiring at the end of the year, uh, amazing stuff a shutout for flower. I believe I saw

01:16Uh, you know, he had a shutout there in his teens now gets a shutout there in his 40s

01:20Uh pretty amazing stuff, uh from him and what a job by the canadian all came out shook his hand afterwards

01:26First star shutout, uh great stuff for the flower

01:30Uh as minnesota back-to-back nights there they went in toronto

01:33On wednesday night and then they go into montreal the next night good couple games for them as they now find themselves second

01:40In the central they jump over dallas. Uh, they're still uh, chasing winnipeg nine points back of them as we sit here today

01:48Sens beat the caps 5-4 in overtime. The senators have gotten involved. They are now third in the atlantic

01:55Uh with how hot they've been seven two and one in their last ten. They've won three games in a row

02:00Uh, so and they were up in this game blew the lead had to go to overtime, but they still get it done

02:06Ovi did score last night. He's now 19 away

02:10From breaking the gretzky record, but it was not enough in the game as the senators still get themselves a victory

02:16It's been a tough couple days for the los angeles kings. They did the double in florida

02:22They lost three nothing to the panthers wednesday night. They lost three nothing to the lightning on thursday night

02:28So not good to go down and get shut out in both games in the sunshine

02:31It's like they don't even get to stay there for uh for too long

02:34Like that's a quick trip. Usually, you know, they'll space that out for you these west coast teams

02:38You know, they get to spend a couple days down in fla. Uh, no get in and get out for the kings

02:43It looks like they should be happy to leave the way that they played

02:46Uh down in that place carolina beat chicago three two

02:50Here miko rantanen with a goal for carolina and that was our big trade

02:55Since we were last together now, we're still got

02:58A good five six weeks till the nhl trade deadline, you know, usually a lot later than everyone else's

03:03It's quite a difference from the nba whose trade deadline is next week

03:07The nhl holds all the way into march until they do their trade deadline really do play a good 75 80 percent of the season

03:15Before they have their trade deadline, but a big deal

03:18Uh a week ago with miko rantanen going from colorado to carolina

03:23Taylor hall goes to carolina as well via chicago

03:26Chicago is really just holding a lot of the uh, the money or some of the money to make the deal work

03:31You had nacious go back to colorado. He's already played pretty well from them

03:35As well, but rantanen's the type of guy

03:39You know carolina's been favorites. We talk about them a lot. They needed another guy

03:43They thought last year would be gentle to put them over the top didn't quite do it

03:48Now they're going to try again this year with rantanen who's going to be a ufa at the end of the year

03:52They lost gentle nothing. They've given up a significant amount for rantanen. I do think that this will help carolina

03:59regular season wise into maybe once again being

04:03Winning the metro maybe winning the president's trophy, but I still don't know if it's enough to get them over that hump

04:09Uh in terms of winning the cup, they are the new favorites. I saw it out this morning six to one

04:13Uh is where carolina is after making this trade, uh and getting hall and rantanen in the building

04:19We'll see how it serves them going forward
