Optimism is hard to come by, but we try our best this episode with podcast super fan Sam R. Covering the Blues and Thunderbirds isn’t great considering they have a combined 10 wins on the season. We try to find some bright spots and look ahead as positive trends are developing for both teams. We quickly cover Logan Mailloux being returned to STL and Texier heading to MTL. Sam then picks her seat at a Thanksgiving dinner with Veterans, Rookies, and Goalies.
