In the 20th episode of the PP3 podcast, the boys dive into their Western Conference predictions, early standouts and letdowns in the NHL preseason, a fresh update on the VIJHL, and the debut of this season’s "Getcha Stepping" segment.

This week’s special guest is Carter Johnson (*44:35*), a Winnipeg native who made waves after joining the Oceanside Generals in 2020. In his shortened first season during the pandemic, CJ still managed to put up 8 points in just 12 games. But it was in the 2021-2022 season that he truly exploded, racking up 92 points in 47 games, earning him the Top Forward Award in the VIJHL and leading the Generals to their first finals appearance since 2008. As a co-captain in his final year of Junior B, CJ outdid himself with 103 points in 42 games and scored the championship-clinching goal in Game 6 of the finals. Now playing university hockey with the Jamestown Jimmies in North Dakota, CJ capped off a strong freshman year with 22 points in 34 games.

In this episode, the boys sit down for an hour of locker room banter, touching on everything from CJ's Junior B hockey journey to his infamous high school moment where he racked up over $2,000 on his mom’s credit card buying HUT packs—and even the time he spent a night on the concrete floors inside a Nanaimo PD cell.

In this week's episode of the PP3 Podcast, the boys dive into and give their predictions on a revamped and exciting NHL Eastern Conference, Mitch Marner's expected play under Craig Berube, the Sharks' new 1-2 punch with Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, and visors being back in the Jungle.

The boys open up Season 2 with NHL top prospect and Kamloops, BC native Logan Stankoven (*46:55*). The Dallas Stars' 47th overall pick in 2021 has caught the attention of scouts and fans across the hockey world. Logan registered 323 points in 215 games over his 4-year tenure with his hometown Kamloops Blazers, where he captained the team for his final two years. Last year, "The Stank" recorded 57 points in 47 AHL games with the Texas Stars and 14 points in his first 24 games in the NHL, including 8 points in the postseason. Logan's impressive first year of pro hockey earned him AHL Rookie of the Year and 1st Team AHL All-Star honours.

We ask Logan about his days with Yale Hockey Academy, getting kicked out of a game for the first time with the Thompson Blazers, hosting the Memorial Cup with the Kamloops Blazers, winning back-to-back gold medals in the World Junior Championship (including assisting on the 2021 gold medal goal), and his early days of playing pro hockey in the state of Texas.
