Larkin Up The Wrong Tree
Connor Hellebuyck has finally been traded...and apparently Dylan Larkin took that personally. Nikita Kucherov decided to remind the league that not only U.S. Olympic team members can request a trade. The Home Town Remix Jerseys come out on Monday (and they are awesome). The Wild are pretty good,...
-
This league makes no sense
We are back, and just like the Minnesota Wild we were both week to week with upper-body injuries (hence why we took a break). The NHL is off to it's usual weird and wacky start. Good teams are great, bad teams are bad, and the Flyers are....yeah. Also...Vegas and Minnesota met for the first time...
-
The one about the money
The regular season is on the horizon...literally...and there is still a lot worth talking about. From Vegas to Minnesota, from Larkin to Hellebuyck, and from the NHL board of governors to the Federal Governments probe into Mark Walter....we cover a lot of ground on this episode.

Back to school day
NHL training camp has officially opened for the 26-27 season. It is just like back to school day for every NHL name you know and love....except for Dylan Larkin and Connor Hellebuyck. On this episode, we talk at length about the weird and honestly funny stuff that goes on at the early days of NHL...

The Free-est of Agents
NHL free agency has come and gone...a month ago now (but this was recorded shortly after free agency... Vegas had a good time, and Minnesota had a ... time
-
Draft Disaster, CBA Changes, and Mitch
The NHL draft has come and gone with little to no joy around it.... Proposed changes to the CBA for the 26-27 season have been leaked and they look...interesting... Finally...Mitch and Vegas....I wonder how this will turn out...
-
Florida Does It Again...
The Florida Panthers have won the Stanley Cup...Again...because of course they did. We are all pretty happy to not see McDavid hoist the cup for various different reasons, and now we can move on to the most interesting part of the year...that weird phase between the cup, the draft, and free…

So...about where we've been
It's been 6 months, and a lot of hockey has happened. On this episode we break down the first 2 games of the 2025 SCF, why both conference finals losing coaches probably should be fired, the series between Vegas and Minnesota that nearly ended the podcast, and the way too early predictions about...
-
Blockbuster Deals and "what is a superstar?"
McDavid has been suspended for 3 games for his cross-check to the face. Corry Perry said one thing then immediately did the opposite. Carolina and Colorado make a blockbuster trade (Chicago was there too kinda). Vegas still sucks Minnesota still sucks
-
He Can't Keep Getting Away With It
Welp...we are back from our break and better then ever. Vegas sucks, Minnesota sucks, refs suck, and more on this week's podcast.
-
4 Nations Fiasco
The Minnesota Wild won in OT last night, the Golden Knights were involved in a stat line that hasn't happened in 80 years...but screw all that because the 4 Nations Faceoff rosters are out. Instant analysis, reactions, and who got snubbed.
-
Best in the West
Some how at the 1/4 mark of the NHL season...*Checks notes*...Minnesota Wild are the best team in the NHL and are making blockbuster trades. The Golden Knights are somehow atop the Pacific Division (despite getting their clock cleaned by Utah), PWHL Season 2 is off and running as the Minnesota...
-
Someone was more cutthroat then Vegas?!?
For once we found someone that was more cutthroat then the Vegas front office. The Bruins fire their coach, Ovi is hurt, the Winter Classic jerseys are out, Vegas still sucks, Minnesota is off to their best ever start, and the PWHL missed out on a major opportunity.
-
The Good, The Bad, and the Wild...(and the Knights)
The regular season is fully in swing, the Knights are...ok...the Wild are...ok...and the Jets are still stupid good. The PWHL has launched their new uniforms (top 6 incoming). There was a lot of good, bad, and ugly stories around the Hockey universe this week, and we tried to cover some of the…

Falls from Grace
Things are going a little too well for both the Golden Knights and the Wild. the VGK still can't win on the road, and the Wild have only played on the road. McDavid is hurt for a few weeks, the Preds and Avs still stuck, the Jets finally lost...and the NHL is pretty much on its usual early season...
-
Role Reversal
When we last talked, Ian was thrilled because his precious VGK were sitting pretty, and Erin was unbelieveably upset because the Wild had lost a game... Fast forward a week and now Erin is content with the Wild (since they figured out how to be a good team), and Ian...well...Ian just likes to…

Irregularly Scheduled Program
The regular season is under way, and the Wild are already on the receiving end of bad officiating. The Knights are shockingly a good team. Edmonton is in 31st, and all is right with the world.
-
'Twas the Knight before
On the second day of the NHL season, the eve of the Knights kicking off their season, and on the day before the Wild get under way, there is always news to unpack that has nothing to do with those teams at all (Boston and New York Rangers mostly).
-
It's almost time to do this for real
We are getting dangerously close to the start of the regular season. The Knights have been busy with a crowded bottom 6, and the Wild...well they are shockingly chill right now.
-
8's is Wild
Time to check in on the Vegas and Minnesota pre-season happenings. Apparently if you aren't scoring 8 goals in a game you are doing something very wrong.
-
Frost Warning
After a short break, we are back with our regularly scheduled programming. On today's docket, the PWHL has announced the new names of the inaugural 6 teams...and only some of them are good, Askarov was finally traded, Leon made entirely too much money, and Ian forgets to turn the A/C off.
-
For Johnny
This is an episode I never wanted us to have to make. Johnny Hockey left a mark on the hockey community that will last for years to come...I only hope we do right by him.
