Locked On NHL - Daily Podcast On The National Hockey LeagueAbout this episode
The Washington Capitals became the first NHL team to clinch a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and Alex Ovechkin got to within seven goals of Wayne Gretzky's all-time scoring record. We break down the Caps surprisingly strong season and how they turned things around. Plus, the New York Islanders edged the Montreal Canadiens in overtime to tighten things up in the Eastern Conference wild card race. We discuss that win plus the wild card races in both conferences with things tightening up as we enter the final month of the season. And the NHL is talking expansion again with a new potential ownership group making itself known in Houston. We discuss that and what the expansion situation means for the NHL and hockey fans.
