We break down a massive day of NHL news, starting with Patrick Kane passing Mike Modano to become the highest‑scoring American‑born player in league history. We also dive into Rasmus Dahlin’s frustration with the huge number of Canadiens fans in Buffalo, the upcoming Stadium Series matchup in Tampa Bay, and Linus Ullmark’s return to the Ottawa Senators.
From there, we look at the Columbus Blue Jackets’ surge under new head coach Rick Bowness and why the Eastern Conference playoff race has turned into complete chaos. To wrap things up, we run through every major NHL award race and where things stand right now.

The eastern conference is impossible to pick which teams will be in the Playoffs. Only the Lightning an Canes are a lock for my eastern conference playoff bracket that I believe 100% will make it. Every other team, minus the Rangers are still realistically the only team in the east that has no shot. 18 points out of a playoff spot with more games played in the league, other then any team, minus a few. Which is why I still think the trade deadline being massive. While I don't think a lot of blockbuster trades will be made. I do think, teams in playoff contention will look to add a piece or two. I do think Schneider from the Rangers, will be part of some big trade. I know a lot of teams would love to have him, then locked him down on a long term extension. I see the Red Wings making a big push for him.
