Kevin Sawyer returns for another visit on GROUND CONTROL!
But this time — host Jamie Thomas and Sawyer are crushing a pound of hot wings in the middle of their conversation.
Before Kev was an analyst for the Jets on TSN, he was a physical player going toe-to-toe with the likes of Bob Probert. We go in-depth on the psychology behind fighting in hockey, and how it compares to his nerves before a broadcast.
Plus he's got some great stories to share from his time in St. Louis with Brett Hull, playing hockey before the holidays, and much more while battling the spicy wings!
