Episode 19: Playoff Picks & Tryout Thoughts

The post-season is finally here! This week, the guys dive into the NHL Playoff bracket, breaking down the first-round matchups and locking in their official picks. They also share their excitement for the podcast’s Bracket Challenge and the chance to host a lucky listener as a guest star. The conversation shifts to the PWHL, where the playoff field is now officially set and the race for the Walter Cup is heating up. Closer to home, the son shares the big news from a stressful tryout season: he’s officially returning to his team as a veteran second-year player, with plenty of familiar teammates joining him for another run! Finally, they recount a "small world" encounter at a local ice cream shop with a player tied to the Jaden Schwartz family, proving once again that the hockey community is a very tight-knit circle.(Recorded 4/21/26)
