Can Anyone Catch the Cats?

Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start the second hour with a look at the Eastern Conference playoff picture as the Panthers continue to pull away from the pack after their comeback win over the Stars last night in which they trailed 3-0. ESPN's Kristen Shilton (4:09) shares her thoughts on the battle at the top of the Eastern Conference, Atlanta expansion rumours, Bedard embracing the 'next face of the league' role and whether Crosby would ever leave Pittsburgh to chase another cup. Later, news and notes from around the NHL - the Predators continue their 12-game point streak, Byram getting comfortable in Buffalo and the Sabres lack a response after UPL got run over.
