Joel returns to the show and has some big news, but he won't tell us. But he will hint at the news the entire show. The show starts with cleaning out the Rant Shack for Carl so that he can step into it and share his thoughts about the Los Angeles Kings and Jonathon Quick's treatment of the concussion protocol. What is the point in a concussion protocol if no one follows it? Roman Polak is back on the Toronto Maple Leafs. Will Joel at least acknowledge that it's happening? The Montreal Canadiens continue to struggle. What is the solution? Is there a solution? Antti Niemi's time as the Pittsburgh Penguins' backup goaltender has come to an end.

Why did it take so long and what exactly are the Red Wings doing? The guys also pick the Pavel Bure Must Watch Games of the Week, for which you can play Game Winning Goal Hi Sticking!
