THE #ESHOW episodes

  • Chopping Towards September | Episode 165

    On this week's episode of the #EShow we work our way north and feature the Vermont Lumberjacks. Jake Basile chats with Seth Gustin ahead of his third season with the program and second year at the helm of the EHL team. The Lumberjacks are coming off another solid season at both levels, having advanced some of their players onto top programs in NCAA Division III hockey. Looking ahead to the 2023-24 campaign, Gustin is hoping Vermont can duplicate what they did back in the 2020-21 season and bring both teams all the way to the Frozen Finals.

  • Central in Sight | Episode 164

    On this week's episode of the #EShow, we head to the Central Division and feature a club that has been right on the verge of reaching the EHL Frozen Finals for the past two seasons. Jake Basile chats with Greg Heffernan as he gears up for his third campaign with the Connecticut Chiefs. Heffernan brought with him to the Chiefs a resume that includes a 12-year stint as the Head Coach at Western New England University, and five additional seasons serving as an Assistant Coach at both SUNY Fredonia and Mercyhurst University. The veteran coach gives a lot of credit to the relationships that he made at the collegiate level as a big reason why he's been able to push 16 players and counting into the NCAA ranks from the Chiefs.

  • A Week to Remember | Episode 161

    On this week's episode of the #EShow, we recap the 2023 EHL Frozen Finals, the 5th edition of the league's annual championship event. It was a week to remember in Providence, RI, as the EHL and EHLP combined to bring us tremendous action throughout the five-day stretch. Ultimately it was the Boston Jr. Rangers winning it all in the EHL, and the New Jersey 87's skating away victoriously in the EHLP. With each championship, both the Rangers and 87's franchises have each now won three titles in three years with the Rangers going EHL-EHLP-EHL and the 87's going EHLP-EHL-EHLP.
