Just when we thought the first round of NHL postseason was going to be a snoozer, series across the league popped off Tuesday night leaving us with a jam-packed Wednesday episode of the Locked On Fantasy Hockey Podcast that features a dive into what went wrong for Connor Hellebuyck and the Winnipeg Jets, as they bow out in five games to a loaded offensive crew in the Colorado Avalanche who look poised to take another series run at the Stanley Cup.

We continue our playoff coverage with breakdowns of the Carolina Hurricanes rolling though the New York islanders and the Nashville Predators pushing their series with the Vancouver Canucks to a sixth game. Can the Toronto Maple Leafs win on home ice in the Game 6 against the Boston Bruins? Tune in and find out.

The NHL's postseason rolls on and so does our daily coverage of all the major storylines from across the hockey world, including what is the next move for Tampa Bay Lightning captain Steven Stamkos and where does his Lightning team go from here in terms of the next contract for their 40-goal veteran?

We discuss Tampa Bay bowing out to the Florida Panthers along with what's on tap for Game 5 between the Vegas Golden Knights and Dallas Stars - the Stars once again with a big response and performance from young gun Wyatt Johnston. Flip and Steele also take a look into Game 5 between the Edmonton Oilers and L.A. Kings while discussing Stuart Skinner and what it will take for the Kings to turn this series around and force a Game 6.

Considering how one-sided this NHL postseason has been so far, it's no wonder that some fans in a lot of fan bases are already preparing for the worst, with the Nashville Predators, Winnipeg Jets, Toronto Maple Leafs, and New York Islanders all on the brink of elimination in what have all been series lacking in serious competition. Meaning the Boston Bruins, Colorado Avalanche, Carolina Hurricanes, and Vancouver Canucks all have complete strangleholds on their opportunities to punch a ticket through to the second round of the NHL's chase for the Stanley Cup.
