S2 Ep. 11 - Offsides? New Pucks? MVP? Mar 05, 2020

Show notes

A lot of questions around the league and we have the answers. The NHL has developed a new puck filled with equipment for player and data tracking that it will implement starting in the playoffs. Is this a good idea or a disaster waiting to happen? The GMs have met and agreed to amend the offside replay review, but did they do enough? And who is the NHL MVP with less than a quarter of the season left the race may not be as tight as it seems.

S2 Ep. 5 - Pucks and Ponies with the Great Eddie Olczyk Jan 28, 2020

Show notes

The boys interview the NHL's lead color commentator and one of the best broadcasters and in all of sports Mr. Eddie Olczyk.

Edzo is a former 1st round pick of the Chicago Blackhawks, who scored in his very 1st NHL game, then went on to play 16 seasons in the NHL, a US olympian, former head coach, a member of the US Hockey Hall of fame and a member of the 1994 Stanley Cup winning New York Rangers.

Edzo recently released a very personal and detailed book “Eddie Olczyk: Beating the Odds in Hockey and in Life" available on amazon and anywhere books are sold. From shooting hundreds of tennis balls at a goal in his childhood living room to the ups and downs of his improbable hockey career to rollicking stories from the booth and the backstretch, Olczyk guides readers on his journey toward his ultimate test: a battle against Stage 3 colon cancer. For years, Olczyk's goal was to be the best husband, father, broadcaster, and handicapper he could be. Today he has a new one: to bring as much awareness and support to those fighting cancer as he possibly can. In this emotional but often hilarious autobiography, you'll learn why the people who know Eddie Olczyk best might describe him as "tremendously tremendous."
