 The boys go around the Stanley Cup Playoffs, including best series, eliminated teams and Tuukka Rask's shocking departure; do some big-name free-agent shopping; talk playoff officiating; lament the latest Jack Edwards, Mike Milbury and Pierre McGuire controversies; say goodbye to Dale Hawerchuk; play another excited game of $25,000 Pierre-amid; and have a spirited discussion about the best and worst kinds of pasta. Mangia!

Playoff Pasta

We're Sean "Down Goes Brown" McIndoe of The Athletic and Ryan Lambert of EP Rinkside and this is a hockey podcast, in the sense that we talk about hockey, both on the ice and about fan culture. That’s the “puck.” This is also a podcast about movies, TV, fast food, life lessons and general idiocy. That’s the “soup.” Unless you ordered the minestrone.
