A Sunrise Trip for the Leafs

Justin Bourne and Brent Gunning (filling in for Nick Kypreos) open the show by previewing the Toronto Maple Leafs' first trip to Sunrise, as they get set to take on the Florida Panthers. First, former NHL D-Man and Panthers TV Analyst for Bally Sports, Ed Jovanovski (20:24), joins the guys to talk about the importance of this game for both teams, how the cats have been battling through close games recently, and gives his thoughts on if Florida can sneak up on some teams in the postseason hunt. Shortly after, author for Maple Leafs hotstove.com and writer at Yahoo Sports Canada, Anthony Petrielli (41:11) hops on to discuss how the lineup can shake out down the final stretch of the season, and what guys like Ryan O'Reilly need to do to help the team succeed in a playoff series. Finally, former Sportsnet NHL analyst and former NHLer Anthony Stewart (1:05:41) joins the boys in the studio to share what he's going to be keeping an eye on from the Leafs if they want to beat Tampa in a playoff series and gives a prediction on who he thinks will upset the Boston Bruins in the 1st round!
