State of Canadian Teams in the Stanley Cup Playoffs

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by Hockey Night in Canada and Sportsnet's David Amber (5:50) to chat about the state of the Canadian NHL teams in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. They get into late hits across the league in Round 1, the Montreal Canadiens' bright future, and why Dallas Stars could become Stanley Cup favourites if they take down the Colorado Avalanche. Then, Nick, Justin and Sam McKee discuss Scott Arniel and Jim Montgomery's testy comments about Brayden Schenn's hit on Mark Scheifele, Jon Cooper's future behind the bench for the Tampa Bay Lightning, and the Aquilini family considering selling their part of Canucks ownership.
