2026 Playoffs Week 5

That was single handedly one of the best game 7’s I’ve ever seen and it was between some of the youngest teams in recent Stanley Cup playoff history. The future is looking bright but is it bright enough to take down the juggernaut in Carolina? But before we discuss game 7 we still have to discuss game 6 which was a mirror of game 5. But before we even talk about the east we have to talk about the west and that’s where your Colorado Avalanche and VGK are facing off in game 1 of the WCF. Dom from the tank takes stock of other playoffs and other hockey competition. Of course, we’re also doing our weekly bracket check in. The Conference Finals have officially begun and only 4 teams remain.

2026 Playoffs Week 4

You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here because this series is over. For the first time since 2022 the Colorado Avalanche are headed back to the Western Conference Final to face either Vegas or Anaheim. Tonight's contest could tell all or leave us in suspense. We’ll reflect on games 4 and 5, the series as a whole, as well as narrowing in on specific points, players, stats, the works. But regardless, your Colorado Avalanche are advancing once again in a rather convincing fashion. Meanwhile the Carolina Hurricanes patiently await their opponent in what is shaping up to be a series full of fireworks. 8 down and 8 to go today on the Captain Avalanche Fancast.
