Tank Talk: Joe Thornton & Patrick Marleau Part Two
In part two of Brodie Brazil’s conversation with Sharks legends Patrick Marleau and Joe Thornton, the trio discusses Macklin and Will’s talent, the direction of the Sharks, and answers fan questions.
Hey Brodie, It's a trip to look at these two now that their playing days are behind them. I remember when they were drafted 1 and 2 over all. I rememger thinking it would be amazing if we could somehow get both these players on the Sharks and then a few years later that happened!
I remember the fan fest Patty's rookie year by then the freshly turned 18 year old young Patrick sitting at a table adjacent to Daryl Sutter so Sutter could keep an eye on Patty.
And then I said something really stupid to Patrick. I said "Thanks for coming to San Jose" like he had a choice. hahaha Patty being the nice young man he was didn't really say anything but, just smiled .
Daryl on the other hand heard the whole thing and gave me a vintage Daryl Sutter stank eye which I definitely earned! hahaha
Thanks for this fun conversation with the boys Brodie.
