Do you C what I C? A captain, one from Finland, is named by the Panthers, Sasha Barkov. Jacob & TJ are back to discuss captain Barkov (TJ has a mildly hot take about it) as well as the Panthers' first 3 pre-season games, the beginning of training camp, and the way the lines appear to be shaking out. We wag our fingers at the DoPS, because come on what the heck are those folks doing.

Joining us for the interview at about the 34:10 mark is Dom Luszczyszyn of The Athletic. Dom talks to the PTP boys about how his projection model sizes up the Panthers, how he thinks the team can improve their chances going into the season, his thoughts on what Aaron Ekblad needs to work on in his game, and how difficult it is to know every player in the NHL's handedness at the same time (the brain can only store so much information.) Dom's season preview series can be read at The Athletic, and you can follow him on twitter at @DomLuszczyszyn.
