Been waiting for guests? If you said yes, then this episode is the one to listen. Another humble Canadian import joins us to talk about his junior days in the WHL (Champ and an All-Star - not a big deal), rocky road from the Cheese Toast to Europe and what he's gone through so far in his young career. He also is under the fire in the fan favourites: The Snapshots and the Trifecta and reveals to us, his off-season training secret. If you want to skip some of the segments during the episode, timestamps can be found underneath for your pleasure. It was a treat to chat with this guy and I wish him nothing but the best for the remainder of the season. (And I'm sorry for the interview's audio quality - the official editor was unfortunately out of reach, so that's why the quality is pretty sub-par, but this is the benefit of a low-budget production!) After the interview, I will announce my trophy predictions for the ongoing NHL season, so stick until the very end to hear my take on the Stanley Cup hunt.
