Patrick Sharp makes his podcast debut along with Kathryn Tappen and Keith Jones. They discuss the pros and cons of Roman Josi’s massive extension, whether Alex Ovechkin hit a nerve with his comments about the Leafs, and the recent trend of veteran players getting healthy scratched. Pierre McGuire sits down with Lightning GM Julien BriseBois, who has an interesting story about how he ended up working in sports. And finally, Jones and Sharp tell their best Halloween stories, including a certain player in Dallas practicing in his Conan O’Brien costume from the night before.
