Brandon Hagel led the charge for the Lightning with a Gordie Howe hat trick and Nikita Kucherov snapped a 16-game playoff goal drought as the Lightning tied their series with the Habs. Sean and Sean recap night four of the Stanley Cup playoffs, including Morgan Geekie’s center ice goal vs. the Sabres, a historic win for the Mammoth, and a glass-breaking overtime win for the Avs over the Kings. The boys welcome Josh Yohe to discuss the Penguins’ sluggish start in the Battle of Pennsylvania and forecast a huge game for Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in game two for the Oilers vs. the Ducks tonight.
