Dan and Shawn are joined by longtime hockey executive Brian Burke (13:55). Burke is currently an analyst for NHL Network so the guys peppered him with questions on both the Eastern and Western Conference Final and got some great answers on Matthew Tkachuk's ability to overcome "average" skating, Jack Eichel's unique skating style, Sergei Bobrovsky being "in the zone" and Jamie Benn's undisciplined play in Game 4. Plus, he shared his thoughts on the growth of the NHL in non traditional markets, the GM opening in Toronto, potential landing spots for Brad Treliving and how the size of the Vegas Golden Knights have impacted their opponents play. The guys opened up the episode talking about each Conference Final series and whether or not they believe the Dallas Stars or Carolina Hurricanes can overcome a 3-0 deficit. They wrapped the episode with some news and notes, including their reaction on Kyle Dubas and the Maple Leafs parting ways and the Calgary Flames hiring their new GM.
