Nashville’s Roman Empire

Roman Josi of the Nashville Predators joins the podcast for episode #200! He chats with Jeff and Elliotte (53:00) about the conversations amongst his teammates leading up to the trade deadline, what it’s like playing in front of Pekka Rinne, how meditation has helped him on and off the ice, and what he took away from each of his coaches in Nashville. They then talk about Ryan Miller’s retirement (10:30), the AHL deciding not to hold playoffs except for the Pacific division (18:50), U.S. rights deal, Jonathan Drouin taking an indefinite leave of absence from the Canadiens (40:45), and Chris Johnston joins the podcast (28:45) to talk about his marathon run. Plus, some #Ask31 to wrap things up!
