Our first guest of the new season is Canada's "Minister of Defense", Tristian Lindberg! We discuss his insight about what it's like to grow up playing hockey at a high level - then to transition into blind hockey -, how he got his chance to wear the national team jersey, and how he would get someone to try blind hockey!

The boys have wild deja vu in realizing they owe you a Tony update podcast. Background about the shortened Season 8 as well as the crazy schedule The Dented Puck has had over the summer months.

As is the usual, the attempt was to record the episode before we left on Sunday, but that never happens. It made it a much more important episode when we found out both Mark DeMontis, who we had been playing with all weekend, and Kelsey McGuire were BOTH nominated for the Willie O'Ree Community Hero award!

We had to have Kelsey on to help promote her campaign of American voters to add to our recap of our weekend in Calgary!

For those in the US, please vote for Kelsey and those in Canada, please vote for Mark. DAILY

What an awesome experience!

(For everyone but Drew)

We were so lucky to be able to highlight international blind hockey live at the American Dream Mall in front of thousands of hockey fans as we hosted a live Dented Puck episode that ended up being guest hosted like a beast by Blake Steinecke.

We chatted with Jukka Pulkkiinen from Finland and Nathan Tree from the United Kingdom.

After a long, active, break, we are back! The releases of this episode was scheduled for 3/22, but technical difficulties pushed us back a week!

We sat down with USA Blind Hockey Team member Nick Kalyan before the break and discussed growing up in hockey and a possible youth rivalry with a current teammate. We also discuss how Nick got back into hockey and why Josh is mega jealous of Nick's job.

"You're killing me, Kory!" - Drew

Today, we have a unique episode - possibly the most mentally taxing episode for the boys. We'd like to introduce our producer, Kory Shinohara! He has been the man behind the camera for the Dented Pucks for almost 3 years, now he's the one in front of it. We discuss how he got into hockey as a sport, how he got into broadcasting at the University of Kansas, why he's a Knights fan (opposed to his hometown Hawks), how he discovered blind hockey, and where he wants to take us to in the future!
