Crowded Competition in the Central

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start in Florida where the GMs are meeting to play some golf (and also attend GM meetings, apparently). They are joined by Sportsnet's Sean Reynolds, (5:22) live in Florida to share what's being discussed at the GM meetings and what isn't. Then, he shares his thoughts on the tightening playoff race in the Central division with the Jets, Avs and Stars all tied at 91 points for first in the division and if any teams on the outside can put pressure on Vegas in the West. Finally, they regroup with Sam McKee for news & notes - Dmitry Kulikov gets a hearing for his hit to Conor Sheary's head, Wayne Simmonds announces his retirement and the latest development in Arizona's search for a new arena.
