Sacca: Oh, Fortnite, definitely.
TP: The Ryans said you guys were all into Fortnite, who do you think is the best player?

TP: OK final question, what do you think your spirit animal is?
Sacca: Let me say a lion.
TP: That’s very "Wolf of Wall Street"-esque.
Sacca: (laughs) If I’m on the ice I just like to go for it, like attack the puck and make plays, like a lion!
