Johnny Hockey and the Columbus Blue Jackets, Sharks-Preds set to open NHL regular season in Czechia, Taylor Hall week-to-week with injury, Multiple Choice Madness, and more

Ian and Julian discuss the San Jose Sharks and Nashville Predators kicking off the regular season schedule with a “home and home” from the Czech Republic on Friday and Saturday, if the ship has sailed on NHL expansion into Europe, more injury trouble for the Boston Bruins with Taylor Hall set to miss the start of the regular season, and a little Multiple Choice Madness to close things out. 

Plus, The Athletic’s own Aaron Portzline joins the show from the media room at Nationwide Arena to talk about one of the biggest storylines heading into the regular season: Johnny Hockey and the Columbus Blue Jackets.
