Expectations were high heading into a second round match up between the Winnipeg Jets and Nashville Predators. Many pundits thought the top two teams would force a game seven but not too many would have predicted four out of the first six games going to the road team. Is home ice really an advantage in this series? Will the Jets continue the trend of winning the odd numbered games?
Both teams have made some lineup changes throughout the series that has caused some confusion. How will the lines look when it matters the most?
The Eastern Conference final is set, and the Vegas Golden Knights are getting ready to start the West final on Saturday. On today’s show the guys will preview the match ups.
