    It's a trip back to one of the most surreal moments in hockey history! Guest host Dave Campbell steps in for a special segment of Inside Sports and welcomes NHL insider John Shannon to the show. Together, they revisit the 5th anniversary of the NHL's unprecedented COVID playoff bubble in Toronto and Edmonton — a time when hockey pressed on in empty arenas, under strict protocols, and with the Stanley Cup on the line. What worked? What didn't? How did the league pull off such a massive undertaking? And what lasting impact did the bubble have on the NHL, the players, and the two Canadian host cities? Whether you lived it, watched it, or forgot it happened entirely — this is a must-listen deep dive into a chapter of hockey history we'll never forget.
