## Resource

Episode 149 of The Larry & Big Man Show features Pittsburgh Penguins legend and longtime broadcaster Phil Bourque joining Larry and Jay Caufield, for a loaded hockey conversation. The guys break down a wild NHL free agency period, including the massive Leo Carlsson offer sheet from Philadelphia, what it means for Anaheim, and how a move like that can change the salary structure across the league. Phil and Jay also dive into the Penguins’ offseason moves, the Yegor Chinakhov signing, Arturs Silovs betting on himself, the Robertson arbitration situation, and what Kyle Dubas still may need to do before training camp. Plus, Phil shares his first impressions of the new Penguins ownership group, the Hoffman family’s early message to Pittsburgh, and why having Mario Lemieux more involved could change the entire feel around the organization. The show also covers Paul Skenes and the MLB All-Star conversation, Big Man’s perfect game pitching debate, World Cup soccer drama, golf talk, wedding traditions, and more.
