Yeah I like Farrell as well...yes he mentions hockey a lot, but i was more meaning about actual guests and interviews. Rome, by a mile, gets more in depth than anyone else in his position.
He often has Eddie Olcyzk on as a guest and its a must listen every time. Those interviews have waned quite a bit the last year because of Eddies current battle, but he will be back and if you want honest and intellectual hockey talk, its hard to beat.
As for the Rome/GG segment, I thought it was top notch. He didnt even mention the stick toss until well into the piece and even then it was in context with getting guys attention when needed and led into the (as described above) "emotional account" he opens with all his players.
It was pretty clear that when he did snap and go javelin thrower that day, it was directed at his veterans almost entirely. That was interesting and he also mentioned they responded which is a magnificent sign about how close the club is as a whole.
