Doug Weight Reflects on Tavares' Work Ethic + Are the Sharks Actually Good?

Jeff is joined by Sportsnet’s Iain MacIntyre to the show as they discuss his Q&A with Canucks President of Hockey Operations, Jim Rutherford. They get into the potential turnover that the Canucks could face after this season, contract talks with Elias Pettersson, how the team can approach the trade deadline, and more. Then, USA Hockey Hall Of Famer and Stanley Cup Champion Doug Weight reflects on his time playing and coaching John Tavares, the grudge that Islanders fans still carry towards their former captain, and how Tavares continues to train and improve (18:07). Finally, San Jose Sharks analyst Drew Remenda stops by to answer the question: are the Sharks actually good (51:18). They break down the mentality from the coaching staff this season which has led to some success as of late, how Tomas Hertl has evolved as a leader both on and off the ice, and the state of San Jose as a hockey market.
