#31: The Difference Mike Sullivan Can Make (With Jon Basti, SHU Lacrosse Coach)
This week, Joe and Eric are joined by Jon Basti, the head coach of the Sacred Heart University men's lacrosse team, as they discuss Mike Sullivan and the kind of difference new—and good—coaching can make. Will Sullivan be enough to keep Chris Kreider around? Does he believe he can fix Mika Zibanejad? Also, how on earth has Joe seen "A Clockwork Orange" but not "Back to the Future"?!?

Joe and Eric prepare to welcome Mike Sullivan as the next head coach of the New York Rangers. What does that mean for Chris Drury? What does that mean for the roster? Will John Tortorella join as an assistant? Plus, why does Canucks president Jim Rutherford keep talking? He knows he can stop before he talks Quinn Hughes out of town, right?
