BIG Surprises in Lightning's EA Sports NHL 27 Ratings | Does Raddysh Make Maple Leafs a Contender?

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 21 Aug 2026 21:21:30 GMT

Tampa Bay Lightning's NHL 27 player ratings spark debate—does Nikita Kucherov deserve to top Connor McDavid as the game's only 99 overall? Nick Morgan and Greg Stephen scrutinize EA Sports’ rankings, question Andrei Vasilevskiy’s 94 despite being the league’s top goalie, and dissect whether Victor Hedman’s “legacy” 91 still fits. Is Brandon Hagel underrated at 90? The hosts dig into how these numbers align with fan expectations and NHL trends, spotlighting which Lightning stars could make the biggest rating leap next season.

Eyes then turn to the Toronto Maple Leafs as the fallout from Darren Raddysh’s blockbuster contract takes center stage. Is Raddysh primed to replicate his Lightning production without Nikita Kucherov on the Leafs’ power play? Nick Morgan and Greg Stephen debate if Toronto’s bet on the puck-moving defenseman is a potential difference-maker or an all-too-familiar gamble. The episode wraps with a bold playoff proposal: should the NHL seed the entire postseason 1–16, conference-free?

Looking beyond the Bolts, the hosts assess the Florida Panthers’ push for a third Stanley Cup in four years. Will a healthy Barkov-Tkachuk duo and new adds like Brady Tkachuk and Jacob Markstrom give Florida the edge over Tampa? Plus, a fiery hot take: Could Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers actually miss the playoffs?
