Description: Laz and guest cohost Jesse Granger break down the wild card races in both conferences, picking which teams they want to make the playoffs and which ones will actually make it.

Plus, a look at Jesse’s goaltending tandem power rankings and this offseason’s lackluster free agent goalie crop to close the show.Hosts: Mark Lazerus and Jesse GrangerExecutive Producer: Chris FlanneryProducer: Chris Flannery Hosted on Acast.
