Zone exit, season 5 | Episode 65: The Panthers’ triumph analyzed

The Panthers are the Stanley Cup champions. What exactly happened to lead to this result? Our experts dissect this final while talking, among others, about Leon Draisaitl, who has not been seen very often. Connor McDavid, for his part, continues to be talked about for his decision not to go for the Conn-Smythe Trophy… With all this, the Canadian clubs find themselves without a cup since that of the Canadian, in 1993, and we are trying to find explanations for this situation.


Meanwhile, the Canadian is preparing to move (or not) for the draft, some big names could have to move to the NHL, and we come back to Jean-François Houle, who was supposed to stay in Laval before choosing to leave.

Host: Jérémie Rainville Guests: Richard Labbé, Simon Olivier-Lorange and Antoine Roussel

Simon-Olivier Lorange

It is against my company policy to give the Conn-Smythe to a player who loses in the final. […] However, it was so much on another level that we had no choice.

Antoine Roussel

He has so many draft picks on his hands […]I think Kent Hughes has assets to compromise.
