Then, former NHLer Brad May discusses the pressure on the Leafs and how they deal with it, wearing down an opponent and how Toronto matches Tampa's energy (45:04). Finally, Andrew Raycroft of NESN gives a full preview for the Bruins/Panthers series, Linus Ullmark's playoff outlook, where Boston is strongest and where they are weakest (1:06:45). The guys wrap with picks and previews for tonight's playoff action.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
