The Big Dog Hockey Podcast

Breaking down all of tonight's games, getting the playoffs started in fine BIGDOG fashion, baby.

Why in the world do people deny climate change? Oh you thought I couldn't be preachy, well you thought wrong (I know you didnt think that). First season without a shutout for Henrik. Sens will be in playoffs again in 2021. Giroux is a badass and JVR is either sometimes lazy or extremely inconsistent and The Penguins are a God damn model franchise.

I'm talking Habs and whether or not they make the playoffs, how deep the Preds go this year, the Devils and the season I'm sure they want to forget and the fact that the Islanders have already peaked and will be ending the season quietly.

Today we talk about the Oilers, the Panthers being ready to take the next step toward success in 2020, the terrible contract of Dion Phaneuf and the general mess of the LA Kings season and why the Wild wont make the playoffs.

Good news and Today in history and then we get into the Avs, Blue Jackets, Dallas Stars and the Detroit Red Wings. I predict which of the teams will make the playoffs, including one that I name as my dark horse/ spoiler and I also look at what the off season and next season may have in store for these clubs.

On this episode I talk about why the Emera skating Oval in Halifax is so great (0.00), the fact that the Flames wont make it past round 2 of the playoffs (2.16), how the Duchene trade should make Carolina 'sellers' at the deadline (8.57), why I think Chicago will be a playoff team this year (16.52). I discuss the games on tap tonight in the CWHL and why you should be there (23.30) and before I go I give my take on why the Duchene trade was pointless and the Coyle trade is a gift for Charlie Coyle (26.20)
