This week on Enjoying Orange Slices with Jeff & Ian 🍊🏒

Round 1 is officially in full swing, and Jeff and Bagg break down what's stood out so far — the sweeps, the tight games, the overtime details that decide everything, and the weird/funny stuff happening around the rink that only playoff hockey brings.

In This Episode:

• Colorado and Carolina finishing business early — and the "rest vs rust" debate once you're waiting a week to play
• Edmonton rediscovering their identity: pace, pushback, and why they're a nightmare when they're on
• Boston vs Buffalo: discipline, goaltending moments, and why overtime becomes a game of line changes + puck management
• Minnesota vs Dallas: razor-thin margins, Boldy stepping up, and why the Wild might be built for a real run
• Ottawa in the spotlight: Canadian-market noise, why the story becomes "who's leaving," and why Sanderson is turning into a superstar
• Montreal vs Tampa: young talent vs veteran "been there" experience (plus the obligatory Corey Perry chirp)
• Vegas vs Utah: what Utah's building, what Vegas tests you with, and why organizational cohesion matters
• Playoff pool update with Emi: standings, beard vows, and lessons learned from picking with your heart 😅
• A heartfelt tribute to John Garrett ("Cheech") and the voices that make hockey feel like home
