Plenty of Fight in Florida

Real Kyper & Bourne

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start with a look at the NHL's playoff picture as the Islanders claw their way back into contention on the back of a 6-game winning streak. They are joined by Panthers analyst Jeff Chychrun (2:19), who weighs in on Paul Maurice's impact on the team, Florida's physical presence, what Vlad Tarasenko brings and where Barkov ranks among the best players in the league. Then, he looks at what went wrong for his son, Jakob, and the Sens this season. Then, they regroup with Sam to chat about how the cap puts Canadian teams at a disadvantage and how the divide can be fixed. Finally, news and notes - the Wild pull their goalie in OT for a gutsy 2 points, Tortorella receives a 2-game suspension and the Canucks lose Demko to injury.
