Hosted by Kyle Knopp and Matthew Zator, The Hockey Writers Podcast is where your favourite THW contributors discuss the hottest topics around the NHL and hockey world, five days a week (Monday to Friday). In today’s episode, Matthew is joined by Central Division specialist Patrick Brown (Arizona Coyotes/Detroit Red Wings) and Metro Division specialist Matt Grazel to discuss the still-pending Central and Metro Division matchups and Pat's discussion with Shane Doan and various media members as he prepared to write his article about the top moments and memories from Gila River Arena.
First, Pat gives his thoughts on whether the Predators or Stars could upset the Avalanche and then gets into his experience talking with Doan and the long-time media in Arizona about Gila River Arena as it prepares to close its doors later tonight (Friday). Going out East to the Metro, Matt talks about the ideal opponent for the Rangers in the first round and whether the Penguins or Capitals could potentially upset the Presidents' Trophy-winning Florida Panthers. Finally, the crew present their picks for their article of the day.
