In the Stanley Cup Final, you need to keep your skills as sharp as a knife! Good thing we’ve got another Stick N Puck session to do just that. Keits shares about the awesome trip he took Beeks’ Rangers jersey on. He raps about their fun times out on the east coast. Next we chat about a little Stanley Cup Final excitement and look at the astronomical price tickets are going for. So as always, tie up those skates, re-tape your stick and enjoy another session of Stick N Puck!

This week the boys on the bench celebrate the Stanley Cup final by taking a dive into a few of the NHL’s curses, myths and traditions that come with every hockey fan’s favourite time of the year. Get the backstories of the playoff beard, the curse of the President’s Trophy and find out whether you and your team should touch the Prince of Wales Trophy or the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl.

Who knew a chance encounter at a local pub would turn into such a great OTBWB episode? In this episode the boys on the bench sit down with a local Avalanche lover, Jake Cohen! He lays it all out for us from having cancer, shingles, a stroke (all within the his first three years on this earth!) and eventually going blind. We get into his major hockey fandom as he explains what the hockey community means to him. Later on he and his, Dave Cohen, introduces us to the innovative invention that lets Jake still puck even off of the ice. For a chance encounter… yeah this eppy is a barn barner, for sure! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣
