On this week's Block Party Podcast presented by Jai Alai IPA, Greg Wolf and Braydon Coburn are joined by Tampa Bay Lightning Head Coach Jon Cooper at the Cigar City Taproom. They discuss why he's paying for Paul Kennedy's dry cleaning, his transition from lacrosse to hockey as a youth, his coaching style and inspirations, how they've integrated new players into the team year after year, and the importance of accountability. Coach Cooper also talks about the greatness of the players he has coached and the challenges of making tough decisions as a coach, why he's never won the Jack Adams Trophy as the top coach and the impact his charity work has made on pediatric cancer research.
