Avs on the Brink + Kimi Takes Control Of Title Battle - May 25th, 2026 - Hour 1

Salas and Gage kick off the show breaking down one of the most shocking turns of the Stanley Cup Playoffs so far as the Vegas Golden Knights now have the Colorado Avalanche on the brink of elimination after a wild 5-3 comeback win in Game 3 of the Western Conference Final. Joining the show is Evan Rawal from the Denver Gazette to talk about what's gone wrong for Colorado in this series and whether there's any path back for the Presidents' Trophy winners. They also dive into the "Presidents' Trophy curse," the pressure mounting on Jared Bednar, and whether the Avs should turn to Mackenzie Blackwood in a desperation move as the season hangs in the balance. The show also recaps the Canadian Grand Prix from Montreal, where rookie sensation Kimi Antonelli delivered another massive statement victory. Salas and Gage discuss how impressive Antonelli has been under pressure, what this means for the championship race moving forward, and whether F1 has officially found its next superstar.
