Dan Herrejon filling in for Chris gives his thoughts on VGK as we exit the break and goes in depth on the Lightning and the Eastern Conference.

Chris and Mark take stock around the league at the break.

Chris and Mark go inside the firing od Head Coach Gerard Gallant and Assistant Coach Mike Kelley

So, if I told you the Golden Knights would fire Gerard Gallant today you would have given me a good kick in the pants. If I told you that they would drag him through customs and dump him in Ottawa you would have split my head open. If I told you they would replace him with clown coach Pete DeBoer who was fired from the Knights hated rival less than a month ago for coaching a dreadfully underperforming Sharks team, you would have had me committed. Well hockey fans, break out the straight jacket because thats exactly what they did.

There is something off with the Golden Knights. Entering tonight's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets, VGK has given up the first goal, (and then some) in their last 5 games. Dropping their last two games of the current 7 game homestand, the Knights need to beat the red hot Blue Jackets to make this homestand a success. In our guest of the week segment, PHWA writer Russ Cohen joins the show to look at the Flyers, Rangers, World Junior Championships, and a sneak peek at the top prospects available for the 2020 Amateur Draft.
