Down the Frozen River

Nick and Connor discuss the lack of NHL players in the 2018 Winter Games, Brad Marchand and his antics, the battle for the final playoff spot and a Western Conference playoff prediction edition of the podcast. Calgary Flames puns are made and a feeble attempt at becoming commentators of The Masters are included.

Nick and Connor discuss topics from this week in the NHL, including the floundering San Jose Sharks, uprising Carolina Hurricanes and more playoff potential storylines. Also discussed, Randy Moss and the Charlotte Independence. We know that's soccer, but it's our podcast so we do what we want.

In a surprisingly Pittsburgh filled edition of the DTFR Podcast, Nick and Connor discuss Sidney Crosby's antics, wild card situations, Bruins stuff and more. *Does not actually contain any natural or artificial flavors of penguin.

Nick and Connor discuss recent hot streaks in the NHL, including the Calgary Flames 10-game winning streak that was disrupted Wednesday night by the Boston Bruins, as well as Canada's playoff chances, divisional outlooks, favorite Stanley Cup quirks and Nick fails to remember the very important 1905 Challenge for the Cup between the Dawson City Nuggets and Ottawa Hockey Club (the original Ottawa Senators). Per Wikipedia, the Nuggets lost 9-2 in Game One and 23-2 in Game Two (thereby losing the challenge to the reigning Cup champion Senators). After the traditional banquet between the two teams, Dawson City players attempted to dropkick the Cup over the Rideau Canal to be lost forever (they failed).

In the first DTFR Podcast in over a month (whoops), Nick and Connor discuss Josh Ho-Sang, the annual general manager's meetings in Boca Raton, 2016-2017 trophy predictions and where they'd like to see the NHL go for team number 32 someday.

In a haste, Nick offers his view on the 2017 Honda NHL All Star Weekend, the current standings of the Atlantic Division and more on Wednesday's first regular episode.

In a special surprise- special edition- of the DTFR Podcast, Nick and Colby discuss Calder Trophy favorites, coaching changes, trade deadline predictions and more.

Nick recaps all of the important stuff from the DTFR Podcast's annual winter hiatus and explains how things might work in 2017. Also discussed, adidas jerseys and All Star Game selections.

Colby and Nick discuss the firing of Gerard Gallant, the Vegas Golden Knights and more as they agree to disagree on many things in this episode. Also appearing, whatever our suitemates were doing in the background that may or may not have been picked up on the microphone (our apologies).

We should not have done a podcast this week in hindsight. Operating on little sleep, Colby and Nick discuss the Arizona Coyotes new arena deal, NHL Olympic participation, the Carolina Hurricanes organization woes and more. Next week is a week off for the Down the Frozen River Podcast, so look forward to actually having to talk to your relatives on Thanksgiving instead of listening to us.
