I mean, how do you not invite Captain Roman Josi out to the golf course. It may be tough to get him out of the house, given he has a new little one at home, much like Rinne, but Josi would easily be my next call if he can make the time.

To have the chance to speak to Josi about how he processes the game, his thoughts about what the team needs from a player’s perspective to take the next step, fun topics about his love of Tennis, and his honeymoon in Africa. There are so many topics to discuss with the Swiss superstar that I don’t know if one round would be enough.

Being the natural athlete and fierce competitor he is, Josi seems like he swings with the latest trends, much like his fashion choices. I bet he rocks a complete set of new Taylormade SIM2’s (my dream set)!

Josi seems like a very analytical player who makes the smart plays but picks his spots to take risks and pull off some otherworldly shots. In other words, I bet his golf game is much like his game on the ice, silky smooth with some highlight-reel quality shots.

I figure with this playing style, Josi is about an 8-handicap and finishes the round with an even 80, finishing 2nd in the group!

If I could ask Josi a non-hockey-related question, it would have to be what his favorite television show of all time is. He seems like the kind of guy that enjoys the odd Netflix binge and has pretty good taste in television and movies!
