Calgary Tries To Close And The Leafs Lose Muzzin
Listen now
Description
No 2020 Stanley Cup Qualifier has had more drama than the Flames-Jets series. Eric Francis joins Ryan and Rory to break down the first three tilts and look ahead to Game 4. While the top line has shown well, Francis believes the Flames’ best unit remains Mikael Backlund with Matthew Tkachuk and Andrew Mangiapane. As someone who’s been around Tkachuk since the start of his NHL career, what has Francis learned about one of hockey’s most pot-stirring figures? With the news that Jake Muzzin will be sidelined for the duration of Toronto’s series versus Columbus, the boys discuss what the Leafs blue line might look like for Game 3 and how Muzzin’s absence will affect the Buds. Also, with Brock Boeser back on the No. 1 trio in Vancouver, the Canucks are looking to take control of their set with the Wild in what has become a best-of-three showdown.
