Matt and Tommy combine for perhaps their shortest podcast together (but tight, taut and packed with great talk) to preview the 2024 Stanley Cup Final from all angles. How do you contain McDavid and Draisaitl? How do you stop that Power Play? Can the Panthers maintain their even keel? Who has the goaltending advantage? We talk about all of that and more.

Matt chats with Miami Marlins PA announcer (and of many other jobs) Josh Appel about many different Florida Panthers topics, including their evolution, their place in South Florida sports, what is most fun about this particular team and more. It's a different kind of show, a little more off the cuff and less structured but still a fun chat. Enjoy the show!
