  • Keep it on Hockey

    Leave your left leaning politics out of the podcast and stick to poorly covering all college hockey except the northeast hockey teams.

  • Owen Power is not good

    Wow Owen Power was truly one of the worst players on the ice vs ND all weekend. He plays with low effort, no emotion, and mistake prone. Was excited to see him play but now feel awful for Buffalo…
