Western Conference Playoffs Check-in

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by Rob Brown (4:49), former NHL forward and Edmonton Oilers analyst for CHED to give his take on Edmonton's Round 1 matchup against the L.A. Kings. The guys discuss the impact of Evander Kane and John Klingberg returning to the lineup, the Oilers' early struggles, what needs to change for them to stay alive and how much credit the Kings deserve through 2 games. Then, Marty Turco (30:27), former NHL goaltender and Special Assistant to the President of the Dallas Stars, shares his thoughts on the Stars' 2-1 series lead over the Colorado Avalanche, Jamie Benn’s leadership, Jake Oettinger’s presence in net, the significance of Gabriel Landeskog’s return, and how Mikko Rantanen is adapting to his first playoff run with Dallas.
