  • Terrific

    The strength of The Pipeline Show is the diversity of the leagues covered and the stellar guests that you will hear talk about them. There is no bias between CHL or NCAA. You get USHL and CJHL and NAHL too. Lots of players and coaches and GMs and media as guests. Can’t ask for much more than that.

  • Solid Hockey Prospects Pod!

    Guy does an amazing job and look forward to listening to this show every week to get my fix of what’s in fact coming down the pipeline of hockey at the developmental levels.

    I started listening to this seasoned hockey content veteran about six years ago and haven’t regretted since.

    Guy always brings it and has unbelievable guests.

    Keep up the great work bud and stay safe!
