We continue our look at the Ontario Reign's excellent season by welcoming back Jared Shafran, Manager of Communications & Content for the team. Today we talk about veteran forward TJ Tynan's impact on the team, and the general mood around the room as a fairly young team gets set for a playoff appearance. With the Reign's last playoff coming in a first round exit in the 2017-18 season, how are players preparing for their next big challenge? Plus, we talk about goaltending for the Reign, with Matt Villalta taking over big minutes after Garret Sparks's injury, and what a potential return date for Sparks looks like. Jared also tells us about some players who have surprised him so far, and who needs to step up now that so many players have been called up to the Kings. Finally, we celebrate team captain Brett Sutter, who recently played in his 1000th professional game.
