Hello Hockey Fans! In our latest episode Tucker & Mark recap the trade deadline for the Habs, the week that was (including a loss to the Vancouver Canucks), the month that was (which included a loss to the Vancouver Canucks) and what #Habs fans can look forward to (the kids!) and what to expect from now until the end of the season.

Hello Hockey Fans! This interview is sure to be one of our favourites for a long time. Tucker actually shows up for an interview and what follows is pure gold. John may have only played 5 NHL games in his career but his story is one for the ages. Listen to how he came through the BCHL, Sunshine Hockey League (we'd never heard of that one either), ECHL, IHL & AHL to suit up for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and sitting between Mats Sundin & Wendel Clark. He discusses having faced racism his whole life and tells a couple of shockers from his time playing in the DEL in Germany. Who knew 88 was a risky jersey number? Enjoy & be sure to SUBSCRIBE!

Hello Hockey Fans! Part 2 of our trade deadline coverage is all about the Canucks and sees a visit from the Pope of the Church of Pettersson. Also Mark's terrible imitation of Eric Church. #GrownAssMan #Canucks #PuckBuddies #PuckBuddyHockey REMEMBER TO SUBSCRIBE

Did you know that Eddie Martin of the Coloured Hockey League's Halifax Eurekas is now the first person credited with taking a slapshot? Have you even heard of the Maritime Coloured Hockey League? Kwame is shakes up the history of hockey by revealing the forgotten side of Canada's game.
