On Monday’s episode of THE WINDOW Podcast, Matt Russell (@mrussauthentic on X) looks back at the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Stars and Hurricanes have punched their ticket to their respective conference finals, as Dallas puts away the Jets in six games after Carolina took care of the Capitals in five. Why the return of Miro Heiskanen might end up being the difference-maker we had hoped.
The Oilers finished off the Golden Knights, on the strength of… wait… the goaltending of Stuart Skinner??
All of those results pales in comparison to the Panthers and Maple Leafs going the distance. Matt breaks down what’s happening in Toronto, and why the fervour in the market is why expectations may never be met. The key players were the right ones when they were acquired, but do they have “It”? Is it a cultural issue or are the wrong people hired to move the chess pieces around? Or, is it just a matter of bad “puck luck” when it comes to timing for this group?
Then, Matt looks back at the PGA Championship as it provided a really good example of why waiting to bet outrights is the right move, even in a loss.
It’s time to head to THE WINDOW, let’s go!
