In the feature interview, presented by Sense Arena, Levi talked to us as part of a lengthy Pro Reads session that spun off into longer conversations at three different points, walking us through the benefits of the somewhat unique training he does with Raimondo on the 3-on-3 rinks at Quartier Hockey in Montreal, as well as sharing insights into his late season NHL debut and some of his unique rituals (like meditating during TV timeouts) that during attention during that successful stint.
