Battle of first place teams: VGK meets Maple Leafs tonight at Fortress

VGK and Toronto meet tonight in a battle of top teams in the Pacific and Atlantic Divisions. After a rough start against teams from the East, VGK has won three straight and is riding an eight-game home points streak. We talk about the firepower of the Maple Leafs and whether they are a legit Cup contender. We also talk about their difficulties defensively and their slide in defending high danger chances. The trade chips might have begun to fall in the Pacific as the Oilers picked up Trent Frederic in a three-team trade. He will add more on the forecheck for Edmonton when healthy and is a good add-on for the Bottom Six. Does that deal start the dominoes falling as the trade deadline looms in a couple of days? We also have our Locks of the Knight and Predictions. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
