Craig Custance and Sean Gentille are reunited and it feels so good. The boys discuss the sale of the Pittsburgh Penguins to Fenway Sports Group and what the sale means to the franchise and the fans of the Steel city. The guys also review the top ten richest American franchises in the NHL.
Shawn Thornton, a two time Stanley Cup Champion with the Anaheim Ducks and the Boston Bruins joins Craig and Sean to discuss his new book 'Fighting My Way to the Top' which profiles his long hard journey from career minor leaguer to fan favorite in Boston with the Bruins. Shawn also discusses his job on the business side with the Florida Panthers, helping grow that franchise, off the ice.
With Craig back, Gentille and Custance renew their Athletic Hockey Show USA comments segment, with topics touching on which US based team will get the most points vs Canadian teams this season, the national TV deal in the United States and the pod leaving out the New Jersey Devils on teams to watch in the metro division. Plus, Craig's family gives him a new nickname over Thanksgiving, and it's awesome!!
