Brownie looks back on his incredible scoring career, from record-setting junior numbers with Kamloops to his unforgettable 1988-89 season in Pittsburgh, where he scored 49 goals and 115 points while playing alongside Mario Lemieux. Rob shares what made Mario so special, why playing with number 66 felt like a dream come true, and how Lemieux’s vision, stride, size, and skill separated him from almost everyone else in hockey history. He also revisits one of the most famous moments of his career: Ron Hextall chasing him down the ice after a playoff goal celebration. Plus, Rob and Jay swap stories from the minor league grind, Kalamazoo, Ken Hitchcock, colored ice, tough guys, and what it meant for Rob to return to Pittsburgh later in his career and reinvent himself as a different kind of player. The conversation also covers Rob’s work with the Edmonton Oilers, coaching young players, his podcast, watching Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl up close, and why Pittsburgh still feels like home every time he comes through the tunnel into downtown.
