Friday Feb 24, 2017
If you're only a casual NHL fan, you may not know what to expect come deadline day. We've brought someone in to correct that. The man, the myth, the legend, Brad Vonknsky is back to drop some knowledge. Like, all of it. We also manage to squeeze in a nod to Slap Shot on the 40th anniversary of its release, and a celebration of Hockey Week in America. Grab a pen and paper. You might want to take notes.

Friday Feb 10, 2017
"45, 45, yay 45!" My high school physics teacher once said that. Long story. He also thought Mark Messier should be arrested for assaulting people, so what did he know? Anyway...
You have made a wise choice, my friend. This show is packed. We will get to know Superfan Sue, chat about Charles Oakley and passion in sports, and Happy Anniversary to us! I think you're going to enjoy this one.

Friday Feb 03, 2017
Friday Feb 03, 2017
This week is entirely devoted to a roundtable discussion of the NHL's 100 Greatest Players list. Gary and James are joined by Mike and Professor Brad as we debate who belongs, who doesn't, and who can upset the most listeners with their opinions. I like our chances.
