The 4th Line is back and ready to discuss the news of the week in the NHL!

With the playoffs one week away, we look at the playoff picture and who will or will not make the playoffs. Will it be Colorado or Arizona in the West? Who will win the duel between the Montreal Canadiens, Carolina Hurricanes and Columbus Bluejackets? 

The last 2 teams are put in the Elimination Station. How can the Canadiens and Flyers adjust what they did this year to make the playoffs in 2020?

The CWHL disbanded this week, leaving many wondering what the future of women's professional hockey is. What does the future of the NWHL look like now?

The Detroit Red Wings have left the tank behind and started winning games. Is this better than tanking for a better pick? Is there a better lottery pick system that could provide better end of season results from teams?

The final Pavel Bure Must Watch Games of the week are also selected.

All this and more on episode 225 of the 4th Line Hockey Podcast!
