Description
It's playoff game day! Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee look at the long-awaited Game 1 between Tampa and Toronto, the different feel from last season, balancing discipline with physicality, a game of 'Leafs, Lightning, or Wash,' and how seriously to take the Lightning's end of season struggles. They are joined by Craig Simpson (44:33) who will be calling tonight's game, and he gets into the difference in officiating in the regular season vs. the playoffs, managing postseason anxiety and if the Lightning can flip the switch. Then, Leafs' legend Wendel Clark shares his thoughts on Michael Bunting picking his battles, what the new additions have brought from a physical standpoint and pressure on the core four (1:06:13). From Lightninginsider.com, Erik Erlendsson provides insight on Tampa's Game 1 lineup, the teams struggles to end the season and Jon Cooper's mind games (1:15:58). The guys close with a look at the action from Day 1 of the playoffs last night.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.
