Jonathan Toews will not return to Chicago Blackhawks next season, NHL playoff teams are set, and Pittsburgh Penguins' postseason streak ends
Ian Mendes and Sean McIndoe discuss Jonathan Toews playing his final game for the Blackhawks on Thursday night, and both Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin missing the playoffs this year. Also, is there any hotter seat than Penguins GM Ron Hextall's, and the futures of Dallas Eakins in Anaheim and Pierre Dorion and DJ Smith in Ottawa. Next, Ian gives DGB powers to pick the playoff matchups, and the many goalie concerns for playoff teams. To wrap up, they answer listener questions in the mailbag, and discuss what could possibly be the best name in sports in "This Week in Hockey History".
