    On today's show:

    - Forget this season; can the Pittsburgh Penguins actually turn things around next year? 

    - The New York Islanders are hot and pushing for a playoff spot. Are they a dark horse to cause trouble in the post-season?

    - The Minnesota Wild pulled their goalie in OT and scored. If they had lost, they would have also lost their loser point. Do we like the risk? 

    - John Tortorella was suspended two games for refusing to leave bench after getting tossed. The Philadelphia Flyers backed him up, but did he go too far, and will it hurt a team that can't miss a beat right now? 

    - Max Miller of The Hockey News' San Jose Sharks site joins the show to discuss what the vibe is in town after the trade deadline. What's Logan Couture's status? Have any of the kids impressed this season?

    - Jared Ostroff and the hosts open up some 2023-24 Upper Deck Series 2 card packs. You won't believe what they found.

    - Rapid Fire questions on the Toronto St. Pat's uniforms, Ottawa Senators forward Josh Norris undergoing a third shoulder surgery, the Detroit Red wings and more.
