A puzzling goalie decision in Las Vegas, Alex Ovechkin scores 50th goal, NHL Global Series to return

Ian and Sean kick off the show with thoughts on Pete DeBoer pulling Robin Lehner after the first period of Wednesday's Golden Knights-Capitals game. Speaking of the Capitals, Ovi passed the 50-goal mark for the 9th time in his career, did this time feel understated? Also, the NHL's announcement that the Global Series will return.

Next in "Granger Things", Jesse Granger shares his thoughts on the goalie controversy, and Evgenii Dadonov's production following that voided trade. Sean and Ian wrap up with some listener questions in the mailbag, and discuss games with nicknames in "This Week in Hockey History"
