EP 131 - TOM DUNDON on changing the culture of the Carolina Hurricanes

Majority Owner of the Carolina Hurricanes, TOM DUNDON stops by to talk about his team but first the gentleman discuss another one of his business ventures - Top Golf.

Then it's all hockey talk, as Bob and John ask about the owners plans with their current head coach, Rod Brind'Amour, and his expiring contract. Will he be back? Or will the canes have a different boss behind the bench next season?

Dundon stresses the importance of finding a balance between Analytics and the age old "Eye test" when it comes to building an NHL team, and talks about some of the surprises he's faced as a team owner.

To wrap up, Tom shares his strategy for building the game in North Carolina - focusing more on the entertainment value in a non traditional hockey market like Raleigh, leading us to the origin of their famous "Storm Surge" celebration.
