Montreal Canadiens extend Stanley Cup final vs Tampa Bay Lightning. Grading the job NBC Sports did in covering the NHL and Joe Smith's report card on the Bolts game four performance.

On the Tuesday edition of the Athletic Hockey Show, Craig Custance and Sean Gentille look back on game four of the Stanley Cup Final between Tampa Bay and Montreal, with Joe Smith.

Plus the guys look at the value of Ryan McDonagh, and if he should be protected by Tampa for the expansion draft, and if he should be named to team USA at the 2022 Winter Olympics.

The guys grade the job of NBC Sports, covering the NHL, as the contract with the network and the league is coming to an end at the conclusion of the Cup final.

Custance and Gentille dissect Corey Pronman's latest column, on what 20 NHL scouts and executives really think of the top prospects leading up to the draft later this month.

Finally, Craig and Sean pay tribute to Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Matīss Kivlenieks who tragically lost his life in an unfortunate accident on the July 4th weekend, and the boys tap their sticks for Stephen Johns who recently wrapped up his rollerblading across the United States to raise awareness for mental health.
