Connor McDavid crosses 60-goal mark, discussing the wild card races, and a deep dive on goalie gear

Ian and Sean discuss Connor McDavid scoring his 60th goal of the season, and if hitting the 70-goal mark is possible for him as the regular season winds down. Then, a look at the wild card race in the Eastern Conference, and who looks like they could squeeze their way in between the Penguins, Panthers and Islanders. In the West, do either the Kraken or Jets have a chance at upsetting a division leader?

Then in "Granger Things", Jesse Granger geeks out on goalie gear and gives the guys a deep dive into that world. To wrap up, a listener shares thoughts on fighting after clean hits in the mailbag, and a look back with "This Week in Hockey History'.
