Description

On a supersized roundtable, Rob, Jesse and Mike marvel at the wonder that is Alexander Ovechkin, who continues his assault of the NHL's all-time goal scoring record held by Wayne Gretzky. The guys discuss Mitch Marner's impressive 23 game point streak and go over some of the bigger storylines from the just wrapped board of governor meetings, including news on the salary cap, playoff format and the Ottawa Senators ownership interest.
John Shannon, the legendary executive producer of NHL hockey, who went in front of the camera later in life as a hockey insider, talks about his first book 'Evolve or Die', a look behind the scenes of working in broadcasting for the NHL, Hockey Night in Canada and Sportsnet during his storied career.
The boys also give their take on Bo Horvat, Darryl Sutter, Jack Eichel and the beast that is Tage Thompson in another edition of rapid fire.
