He is best known as Wayne Gretzky’s “protector” both with the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings., was a key part of the infamous 1988 trade that brought Gretzky to the Los Angeles Kings. Beyond being a straight enforcer, McSorley had some notable offensive skills and assisted on Gretzky’s goal that broke Gordie Howe’s all time NHL points record in March of 1994.  Marty was also on the wrong side of the most impactful “Illegal stick” calls in NHL Stanley Cup history during the 1993 Stanley Cup final against the Montreal Canadians.  McSorely tells some great stories about all of these and much more!

Proud to have our good friend Glenn Healy join us this week! Glen is a Stanley Cup Champion with the 1994 New York Rangers, is 15 year year NHL veteran, and his ‘stand-on-his-head” goaltending was largely responsible for one of the biggest upsets in NHL history when the New York Islanders knocked off the 2 time defending Stanley Cup Champions, Pittsburgh Penguins led by legends Mario Lemieux & Jaromir Jagr in the 2nd round of the 1993 Stanley Cup Playoffs.  Even with all of his success on the ice as a player, Healy is creating an even better legacy as the Executive Director and President of the NHL Alumni Association. Since being hired in 2017, Healy has  focused on creating a successful mandate & structure in helping all NHL Alumni members transition from on-ice careers to successful, healthy lives away from the game. Not an easy task - chronic pain, addictions, mental health, and financial challenges are challenges for many players, particularly the NHL players who played before big salaries became more prevalent in the past few years… A tremendous player, and many say an even better leader in his capacity as leader of the NHL Alumni Association!!  - so pleased to have Glenn Healy join our show this week!

We are so excited to have a “Miracle on Ice” - Olympic Gold Medalist – Ken Morrow join us today!!  He was the first player in hockey history to win an Olympic Gold Medal and a Stanley Cup in the same season! After the most epic season a player could possible have, Ken didn’t  rest on his laurels - he went on to win 4 straight Stanley Cups as an integral part of the New York Islanders dynasty in the 1980s..!! He was one of the most dependable and reliable defensemen of his era, and  was inducted into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame in 1995! However, despite his 4 Stanley Cups and his ‘Miracle On Ice' Olympic Gold Medal, he has yet to receive the same recognition in the Hockey Hall of Fame. Morrow shares some very interesting insights on how a group of U.S. College players were able to knock off the feared Soviet National Olympic team, and how that experience helped groom a 9 year NHL career with 4 Stanley Cups..! Enjoy!!
