Hockey players show up at the rink and think the lights come on as if on their own, and you play. But behind all the magic of our game, especially at the NHL level, is a huge machine made of multiple moving parts, a master illusionist that pulls off complicated and interconnected feats to make players and fans unaware of anything beyond excitement and fun.

The boys are back without a guest this week to take on a series of questions with plenty of back-and-forth. They hit on such topics as:
-Will McDavid finish with more career points than Sid?
-Doesn't it seem like McDavid's been scoring at an 80s-esque pace? Yet how is it that Sid was scoring at that pace through 369 games?

When the boys think of junior hockey years in Truro, they think of much more than on-ice thrills and energetic fan support. It's the life that goes on the many hours and days off the ice, in billet homes, in the community, in school, and hanging with the friends who become friends for life.

We expected some fun stories looking back with former teammate and friend Geoff Carter, but what we didn't know about his experience in hockey, including right within our own playing days with him, fascinated us more anything we had been looking forward to.
