This week on the Founding 4 Podcast Mike and Erica help set the stage for the 2019 NWHL All-Star Game and the Skills Competition in the Music City! Who do we think will come away as the winners for the Fastest Skater, the Hardest Shot, and the other skillful showdowns? You’ll have to listen in to find out!

On this week’s show we also recap last weekend’s NWHL regular season action. We saw the Pride add a player before facing off against a familiar face who tended goal for the Whale and we saw the Buffalo Beauts continue their winning streak at the expense of the Metropolitan Riveters. We have insight and analysis on those games, a Pride signing, and plenty more on this week’s show!

Stick around after the show to hear Madison Packer discuss the Kyle Pavone Foundation, established to honor of her childhood friend and provide free counseling services to musicians.

It’s cold up here in the Northeast, but that hasn’t stopped us from bringing you your favorite NWHL-centric podcast this week.

On this week’s show, Mike and Erica discuss a wide range of topics including a couple of NWHL stars shining bright at the NHL All-Star Skills Competition in San Jose, a roster move made by the Boston Pride, some roster moves that could (and probably should) be coming for the Connecticut Whale and Buffalo Beauts. Some of this news has already been officially reported, so listen to the hypotheticals this week and the post-analysis next week!

But that’s not all!

We also catch up with our listener mailbag, plug some must-read NWHL stories, cover a very full news week, and offer intriguing inside information and analysis on the latest week of NWHL action.

Last Saturday’s game between the Metropolitan Riveters and the Boston Pride may have been postponed due to a winter storm, but we still have a FULL episode of the Founding 4 Podcast for you covering the latest week of the 2018-19 NWHL season.

This week we recap the Minnesota Whitecaps’ two big victories over the Connecticut Whale, we discuss the scary collision that knocked Meeri Räisänen out of Sunday’s game, what the league’s standings look like heading into the upcoming weekend, and a whole bunch of news.

We also answer a question from TIG contributor Nathan Vaughan, who asked which current NCAA underclassmen might be players who play in the NWHL in coming years. Oh, and we coin a new phrase that we definitely need to turn into merchandise or something. It’s pretty fantastic.

This week, Hannah and Michelle pick their All-time All-Star teams. There were rules. Each team could only have 12 forwards, six defenders, and three goalies. We were allowed to pick a player from a specific era (aka, Daryl Watts Patty Kaz Year, Alina Muller’s Olympic performance). Each team needed two coaches as well. They can be either existing coaches (ie: Katie King Crowley) or players you’d like to see as coaches (ie: Meghan Duggan. We questioned each others picks, debated merits, and struggled a lot. Stick through to the end because instead of our usual bloopers, you’ll get to hear excerpts of us trying to pick our teams.

This week Michelle and Hannah focus on Sunday’s CWHL All Star game. They chat who’s in and who’s not, the three different sets of coaches, and, maybe most importantly, the Barenaked Ladies. Hannah introduces a new segment called “Michelle tries to spell” and also tries to turn Barenaked Ladies songs into women’s hockey parodies.
