NHL Eastern Landscape + Leafs Fixes

The FAN Morning Show

Brent Gunning and Daniele Franceschi wrap up this week on The FAN Morning Show with a look at the NHL’s Eastern Conference and the teams fighting for the final Wild Card playoff spot. The hosts enlist the help of Sportsnet’s own Ryan Dixon for his thoughts on who has the upper leg to claim that spot and who could be a big threat if they get in. The trio also discuss some potential landing spots for Canucks centre J.T. Miller and how it would change the landscape of the East if he switched conferences. Next up, SN590’s Sam McKee stops by to preview Saturday’s ‘Battle of Ontario’ between the Maple Leafs and Senators (27:25). They dive into Toronto’s goaltending situation, how the lineup looks without Matthew Knies, how to get Max Domi going, and who should be paired with Morgan Rielly.
