Yzerplan Meets the Shanaplan

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee begin with the Leafs' 2-1 win over the Nashville Predators, one of the best performances all season from Matt Murray and Sheldon Keefe trying William Nylander at centre in Auston Matthews' absence. They also discuss Kyper's newest article about Jake Muzzin, and if the Leafs need a new Muzzin before the playoffs begin. They are joined by Maple Leafs radio colour analyst Jim Ralph (42:39) who breaks down Murray's game yesterday, the NHL debut from Bobby McMann, and his experience working with Jim Bowen.  Four-time Stanley Cup winner with the Red Wings, Woodward Sports Network's Darren McCarty joins the show (1:05:06) to talk about Detroit's recent stretch ahead of their game tonight against the Leafs, their path back to being a Cup contender and the "Yzerplan." The guys close with a coversation about the All-Star game, Canucks' Oliver Ekman-Larsson being a healthy scratch, and league meetings about goalies knocking the nets off.
