Happy Wednesday, Internet friends, and welcome to another chapter of your ol’ pal Baggedmilk’s adventures in local radio as we work through the final week of the NHL season. As I do every week, I jumped on the air with the boys on The Locker Room for a quick segment to talk about McDavid and Draisaitl’s minutes, playoff matchups, and anything else that’s going on in the world of the Edmonton Oilers.
Kicking off this week’s appearance, we jumped in with a look at Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl and whether or not I think they’ll play much over these last couple of games on the schedule. With only two meaningless games left to go, I think that Dave Tippett will dress both guys but how much they play is anyone’s guess. How important is it to keep them sharp over making sure they’re both healthy? From there, we walked through the playoff matchups and took a few guesses as to how those will play out. Here in the North Division, the Oilers will be looking at a dance with the Winnipeg Jets and I believe this is the best possible opponent for round one. From there, I finished off this week’s appearance by explaining why I want the Leafs to win and don’t really care if we got a McDavid vs Matthews matchup in round two.
Listen to this week’s appearance below:
