In episode three of Frankly Speaking, Frank Seravalli sits down with Josh Morrissey at NHL All-Star weekend to talk about the defenseman's strong start to the season, which has given him the nickname 'Josh Norris-sey'. Josh talked about what's changed in his game and how new Head Coach Rick Bowness has not only sparked his game, but also changed the team's mindset. The Jets are having a great bounceback season but it didn't seem like this kind of turnaround could happen. Josh spoke about the culture in the room and other things that have contributed to this turnaround. Frank also asked him about the idea of one day potentially being named Captain of the team.
