With Jesse Granger golfing Torry Pines this week, Rob and Sara welcome Sean Shapiro, the Athletic's business hockey reporter to fill in on the roundtable.
The crew discusses NHL teams being allowed to sell advertising on jerseys in time for this coming season, Mark Scheifele walking back his harsh comments on the Jets after the season, the NHL-PA searching for a new Executive director, Jack Johnson signing in Chicago, Joel Martin becoming the second black head coach for a North American men's hockey league, as he takes over in Kalamazoo of the ECHL and Jakob Chychrun being linked to the Ottawa Senators.
Kevin Kurz joins the roundtable from Long Island to discuss his oral history on the Eric Lindros deal from Quebec to Philadelphia 30 years ago, the controversy that came with it, Jay Snider's manila envelope and a 1992 cell phone, plus Kurzy provides an update on the work still to be done with the Islanders in negotiations with Noah Dobson and Alex Romoanov and those pesky Nazem Kadri rumours that won't go away.
