BLTShow

Our heroes regroup in the beer closet after a frustrating weekend of hockey interrupted by Christmas parties. When attempts to force teammates to reevaluate their priorities failed, short benches were the only option. To get more into the holiday spirit, they turned to what hockey gifts they'd love to see under the tree this year.

Fresh off a plane from California, Nick dashed back to the beer closet to make sure we don’t miss an episode for you lovely fans. Or is it because he can’t miss an opportunity to talk about another A Final win? We may never know. Christmas came early on BLT as a giant package made its way to our hosts – much bigger than April’s box. And the crew talks about their hockey pet peeves, following up on a Question of the Day Dani posted last week #WarriorVIP

The BLT crew is back with plenty to rant about. Their irate GM personas come out in full force with sub player etiquette getting the blood boiling lately. And no one is surprised when Nick asks if there's ever a time he's allowed to run a goalie. Dani answers to some fans who called her out on our last episode for tracking her plus-minus.

Why is beer league special to you?

Trimming the Westy field down to the top 8 teams was so hard that we actually couldn’t do it – watch to see why one extra team squeaked into the next round. Plus, we hear from a listener why hockey is special to them, as their sports family rallies for an inspiring cause. The girls vent about a reoccurring issue in the shower and concerns are rising for Dani as her tot addiction starts to spiral out of control.

What's your weirdest excuse for missing hockey.

Baffling excuses for missing hockey popped up this week as some of the BLT crew struggled to fill their game benches. Luckily it didn’t come to blows, but that does lead to another hot topic: Who thinks there should be fighting in beer league? We weigh the pros and cons; tune in to see where each of us landed on the issue. Plus, the Westy rolls into the Top 16 round and we see what people are willing to do to win our votes!
