Purple Reign

It's been a very dark start for the sake of hockey in Minnesota but the Frost were determined to provide the much needed light especially as they had their first visit from the expansion sisters the Torrent & Goldeneyes

As much as this Democrat avoids politics we will throughout the show reference the cold blooded murders that ICE committed in Minneapolis and my heart and prayers go out to the victims loved ones

As this is the last episode before Milan I'll be joined by my fellow Purple Trio members Pluto & Lady to rundown all of the Frost players going to Italy and I will also share my plans throughout the games

We then round out the show with the points leaders taking a closer look at the standings as the first half of the season draws to a close

In this bitesize edition of the Purple Reign podcast I share all of my good luck messages to all of the olympians heading to Italy from our Minnesota Frost

With one day to go before the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics we recap the 2022 edition in Beijing which was a very difficult Games for me as we were still dealing with COVID19 restrictions

With 24 hours until the fun and games in the italian snow begin there's just enough time to tell you all about the Olympics Portal that the PWHL has set up throughout the gamesOne of the interesting things about it is that Tessa & Julia will be on the ground with episodes of Jocks in Jills which puts our show to shame as we are taking a break so I can soak in all of the Olympics as normalCheck out our Italy 2026 Hub here - https://www.thepwhl.com/en/olympics

With two days to go before the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics we recap the 2018 edition in PyeongChang which was an amazing advertisement for a sport on a whole despite Canada not taking it graciously in what was supposed to be a changing of the guard moment

With three days to go before the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics we recap the 2014 edition in Sochi which Me and Lady still haven't got over given the heartbreak that Team USA inflicted on itself

The big thing that has annoyed the Purple Trio about the Sirens for years is how they handle their netminding but this season has really taken the biscuit as the majority of their starts have come from Kaylee Osborne At the time of recording our thoughts she made 13 starts in a row ad we wonder is their lack of faith in the Sirens roster with regards to their other netminders

With four days to go before the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics we recap the 2010 edition in Vancouver which marked a huge moment in my life as my involvement with the women's game began

As the league got ready to pause for Milano-Cortina there was just enough time for our Back to Back Walter Cup champions Minnesota Frost recieve their second championship ringsAnd I can't believe I'm saying this but they're even better than the ones we got last year and I think that's largely due to the fact our identity could be seen visible on those bad girls
