So who had the J.J. Moser/Nick Roy parlay in their overtime goal pool Tuesday?

That's just a start re-capping a night where the temperature came up considerably in all four series with three of those guaranteed to go at lease five games.

We'll also look ahead to the three Wednesday matchups as Ottawa and Pittsburgh look to get themselves off the ropes.

For the sixth consecutive spring, the Columbus Blue Jackets are out of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. What started poorly was replaced to an incredible run to playoff position after a coaching change, only to falter at the end for the second straight season.

Vic and Neil, look back at what went wrong and look ahead with plenty of decisions for GM Don Waddell.

While the Stanley Cup Playoffs are a two month physical battle of attrition, the mental component plays an equally significant role in determining the fate of clubs.

Monday, Pittsburgh, Ottawa and Anaheim all went down in very different ways and are going to be challenged to get themselves back in their respective series.

Elsewhere, Dallas avoided a 2-0 hole against Minnesota and we look ahead, to four games on the games on the Tuesday schedule where the Lightning, Bruins, Mammoth and Kings will try to even their series.

Let the plots begin to unfold as the Stanley Cup Playoffs opened over the weekend with seven of the eight series beginning to tell their respective stories. Perhaps no tale was better than in Buffalo where, after a decade-an-a-half of waiting, fans in Western New York were treated to a stirring comeback at the hands of the rival Bruins.

Elsewhere, some favorites held serve as expected while a couple of others stunned their hosts.

Finally, the number of hits more than doubled from that of a regular season game according to stats compiled by the NHL. Really? Let's get to the definition of a hit and go from there.

The NHL Wraparound Spring Cleaning series continues on Quick Takes with the New York Islanders.

Primed to make the playoffs in late March, the Isles collapsed and that cost head coach Patrick Roy his job.

While some improvements were made in 2025-26, much lies ahead for Mathieu Darche in the off-season.
