To some, he's the greatest of all time, but today he's the focus and title of of this episode that we call The Orr, as in Robert Gordon Orr, in honour of the best 4 to play the game!We also talk about the NHL's misguided decision to ban pride tape, along with a bunch of other cool jersey initiatives, give you a little GHL update - all teams have names now!! And a Jet's update after 2 games of the young season!

Season 6 Episode 4 - THE ORR

Hello out there, we're on the air! 
It's your ol' pals co-host Tom and co-host Jared, and it's time to talk some hockey.
We don't pretend to be insiders or know-it-all experts, no, we are just two pretty regular dudes who play hockey, watch hockey and talk hockey! 
Tune in each week to hear the fellas talkin': fun facts about your favourite players from bygone eras; discussion of current events and hot topics; beer league chatter and rinkside banter; the occasional guest (check the archives for when we had lots of guests over the pandemic era) ... and much more! 
Plus, we always have some great tunes to spin on the show, lots of can-con and bangers galore.
Hope you can join us, and remember - keep your stick on the ice!

We're back this week talking about offensively gifted defenseman, a great #28, Steve Duchesne! He may have kept his suitcase packed, but he put up a lot of points for a few teams, and seemed like a heckuva nice guy!
We also discuss the playoffs to date, as we wait for the 4th partner to join the final four dance on the eve of the Canucks-Oilers game 7. We do a quick recap of the PWHL and the World Hockey Championships...
Pack-A-Day this week is 1990 Score and we pull some real beauties!

Season 6 Episode 28 - THE DUCHESNE

Back at it tell you about a fine number 27 - the great Gilles Meloche! This mustachioed tendy patrolled the pipes for the likes of the California Golden Seals, Cleveland Barons and Minnesota North Stars, so you know he felt the sting of more than a few biscuits to the side of the head! He currently sits at 4th all-time in the Goalie loss leaders, where he's got some pretty good company.
We also get caught up on Round Two playoff action, look at some head coaching vacancies and debut our brand new pack-a-day segment!

Season 6 Episode 27 - THE MELOCHE

Back for another week to talk about game we all know and love, we're here with episode 26 - The Milbury! The boys tell you all about rugged defenseman Mike Milbury, who was a bit of a shoe aficionado, then later a subpar GM with the Isles and a longtime commentator with some questionable hot takes!
We break down a predictable round one of the NHL playoffs - the teams you think would win won, and the won we wanted to win didn't. But the Leafs lost again, and that's okay!
And then we start to dissect what will happen with your Winnipeg Jets offseason - will Old Bones stay? Do any of the UFA's make Winnipeg their home? And does Nik Ehlers take his drycleaning to a new city - we've got thoughts as always...

Season 6 Episode 26 - THE MILBURY

After last week's live Pledge-O-Rama show, your favourite hosts are back and recording the show from comfortable confines. We break down the great career of one Mr. Joseph Nieuwendyk - this hall of famer won cups with 3(!!!) different teams, helped bring the gold back to Canada in the 2002 Olympics and proved to be an excellent two-way centreman.
Then we talk about the playoffs - first trying to dissect exactly what's gone wrong for your Winnipeg Jets and then talking about some of our other favourite playoff highlights and stories.
No music today - instead we play you some of our favourite calls from the late, great Bob Cole. Truly Mr. Saturday Night, may he rest in peace.
