John Farinacci knew about the fitness tests that he was going to take at the 2019 National Hockey League Scouting Combine. He had a general idea of the questions that he was going to be asked during the interview stage of the event.
What the center from Chatham, N.J., didn’t realize was that he was going to have to channel his inner comedian at one point.
“One team told me to tell them a joke,” revealed Farinacci, who recorded 33 points (12-21-33) in 16 games at Dexter School this past season, his second at the school and first as captain.
