Episode 0324: IIHF Tournament; Lucic to Play Again?; Kaboom Trades; SCF Game 1 & Picks; Tkachuk in People; Penguins Collapse; Mike Babcock & More!

The Stanley Cup Final has begun!  Game one on Saturday night was entertaining and filled with action and physicality.  We start the show talking about another tournament...the IIHF World Championships.  The U.S. finished out of the medals after starting undefeated, at one point being 5,0,0,0.  We touched on various players for a few teams, but one in particular, Milan Lucic, wants to continue in the NHL but will he get a contract anywhere?  Mike and Chris both brought deals to the show for teams that we believe should have suffer an earth-shattering kaboom.  Which deal is more realistic and more helpful...we leave you to decide that.  We break down game one of the Final and make our pick for who will win.  Surprise...we don't agree.  Matthew Tkachuk was featured in People magazine, not to be named "Sexiest Man of the Year", but for an actual sports story about him and his career to this point.  The Two Man Forecheck then looked at the collapse of the Penguins as the result of an article in the Athletic and broke down why they really fell apart.  Finally, Mike Babcock may be making a return to the NHL as coach of the Blue Jackets.  Welcome to Cisco, the newest member of the Two Man Forecheck team.  A nine week old miniature Dachshund, he resides with Mike.  Lots to dive into during the final so give a listen and tell us what you think about the proposed trades or anything else hockey.  Enjoy the Show!
