Episode Description from the Publisher

Brandon Hagel powers the Tampa Bay Lightning as they battle the Montreal Canadiens in a tightly contested playoff series, raising the question: Is Hagel the most underrated fantasy asset in hockey? Steele Rodin analyzes Hagel’s breakout performances, comparing him to elite multi-category contributors like Joel Eriksson Ek and Zach Hyman, and breaks down why his fantasy value should rise in next season’s drafts. The episode spotlights Tampa Bay’s dominance at even strength versus Montreal’s lethal power play, with key insights into Anthony Cirelli’s shutdown role and the struggles of Montreal’s top line at five-on-five. Discussions expand to the Colorado Avalanche’s sweep of the LA Kings and the Edmonton Oilers’ goaltending woes against the surging Anaheim Ducks, highlighting fantasy gold mines, fading stars, and emerging young talents like Cutter Gauthier and Jackson LaCombe. Big-time betting angles and strategic advice round out this fast-paced playoff update. Thanks for making Locked On Fantasy Hockey your 1st listen, every day.
