  • Miss the old Pod

    AJ and Rudo are professionals who know this game in and out. I respect what Eric was able to do as a player in pro hockey but he adds nothing but rambles that drag on WAY too long about how the game used to be or piggybacking off Rudo or AJs opinions cause he doesn’t know the way this game functions anymore. He has some occasional good insights on personalities in the league, but otherwise cut the dude’s mic lol.

  • How is AJ still employed?

    Eric is just terrible. Rambles on and on. AJ finds every excuse to not work which is a shame cause the show would be good if it were just him and Rudo. Find a way to get AJ to do his job and get Eric off the show permanently and we’ll be in business.

Who Are the Avalanche's TOP 5 TARGETS in the 2026 NHL Draft? | w/ Draft Expert Brad Francis
Q: Brad, thank you for coming on. We'll see. Hopefully we can get you out and do some of the live draft day stuff.
Brad expresses enthusiasm for future live coverage and collaboration, while outlining a plan to analyse draft targets as the event approaches.
Bailey Curtis sits down with Hurricanes play-by-play broadcaster Mike Maniscalco- UNCUT
Q: What have you seen from the Hurricanes' end that stands out as this series progresses?
Maniscalco highlights the team's depth, the effectiveness of their 200-foot game, and how the goaltending situation evolved with Bussey stepping in, which has kept the Canes in every game and allowed them to push through despite challenges.
Remembering Claude Lemieux with guest Eric Lacroix | DNVR Avalanche Podcast
Q: What do you want Claude to be remembered for when people think of him?
The guests describe Claude Lemieux as someone who valued family, was relentlessly focused on winning, and had a big heart; he was a legendary competitor who built lasting relationships and inspired teammates and others in the league through both his on-ice impact and off-ice leadership.
The Success (and failures) of the Colorado Avalanche depth | DNVR Avalanche Podcast
Q: How does Parker Kelly's breakout influence decisions on contracts for fourth-line players?
Kelly's surprising 20-goal season showed that a fourth-line player can have a meaningful offensive impact, which could justify keeping him long-term if the return on investment is favorable compared to alternative signings.
The Success (and failures) of the Colorado Avalanche depth | DNVR Avalanche Podcast
Q: What stands out most about the fourth line's impact this season?
The line offered reliable possession presence, was capable of contributing offense, and often pressed defensively and in the forecheck, making them a backbone of the team even when the top line struggled.
