Description:

In this episode of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman open with Elliotte’s travel mishap getting to Vancouver, before diving into a league where every game is starting to feel more meaningful as the playoff races tighten. They discuss the Columbus Blue Jackets holding a playoff spot under Rick Bowness (8:45), Edmonton’s disappointing loss to Florida and Kris Knoblauch’s measured response (13:25), and Brady Tkachuk's heart-to-heart with coach Green leading Ottawa to a big win over the Islanders (16:40). The guys also get into heated discussions from the GM meetings around the NHL playoff format (26:45), Auston Matthews undergoing surgery on his MCL with a lengthy recovery ahead (32:00), and Nashville’s accelerating GM search (35:45). The Final Thought focuses on player safety discussions at the GM meetings, where headshots were addressed but goalie interference proved to be the most contentious topic (37:30).

Kyle and Elliotte answer listener questions in the Thoughtline (47:02).

Today we highlight Hamilton-based singer-songwriter and screen composer Alex Whorms and her track PARANOID! Check her music out here.
