Cost Per Pointcast Ep. 21: Early Season Impressions with James Gordon

The Athletic writer James Gordon joins the podcast for a second time to talk about the first eight games of the season for the Ottawa Senators

Finally, some games to talk about on the podcast.

Writer for the Athletic James Gordon joins the show once again to talk about the first 8 games of the Ottawa Senators season! This was recorded before the game on Tuesday and I tweeted out the link, but it was too late in the day to have a blog post for it.

Topics include:

-Erik Karlsson's impact

-Guy Boucher's use of rookies

-Team possession numbers

-Kyle Turris' contract situation

-Divisional outlook

It's a shorter episode today, but there's plenty of content and insight from James.
