Episode 56 - Better Or Worse: How The East & West Will Match Up In Season 2017-2018

Tonight we talk all things expansion (of course)! GMGM has performed admirably in his role as an expansion overlord, locking down a solid defense, above average net minding and a competent forward core. Don't sweat though fans, there's more moves on the way! Oh yeah, the NHL handed out some awards today, some that mattered and some that are, quite simply, shithouse. Powered as always by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 55 - GMGM: A Solid Vegas A+

AND WE'RE TIED AT TWO! On tonight's show we (obviously) dissect the 2-2 Nashville vs Pittsburgh series. Who takes it? Is PK for real? Is the Pens' defense the issue or have the boys from Tennessee found a way to neutralise that forward posse? Throw in Charles Barkley, Vegas, the Stop Concussions team, Calgary & Ovi rumours and yep, we've got a show! Presented as always, by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 54 - Nashville: You sad or you mad?

THE ICE DOGS IN THE HOUSE! On tonight's show we catch up with Scott Stephenson, captain of the AIHL's Sydney Ice Dogs. We talk a little hockey, a lot of shit and most importantly, we collectively respect the sidebar. Dawson's Creek? Check. Junior A aspirations? Check. A love of inappropriate older women thanks to Miss McGill? Check In addition we toast the Preds and roast the Ducks (see what we did there), after Nashville's stonking Western Conference victory has carried them to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time. Throw in some quick (and not so shit) hits, along with a little not-so-good news and we've got ourselves one hell of a show! Presented as always by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 53 - Interview with Scott Stephenson of the Sydney Ice Dogs (AIHL)

SECOND EPISODE IN ONE NIGHT? YEAH! On Episode 52 of the Holy Puck Podcast, we preview the upcoming game 7s between those perennial losers outta Anaheim and the plucky, young Oilers, as well as geeing up Jon about Washington's pending implosion against the Penguins in their own game 7 matchup. Are the Preds America's team in the hockey landscape (eight ball says "yes"), can the Senators outlast the Rangers (we hope so)? Are the Vegas Golden Knights getting lazy with their colour scheme (probably). All this and more on Episode 52! Powered as always by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 52 - The Washington Capitals - No Pucks Given

Surprise friends! Tonight you're getting not one but two episodes of the Holy Puck podcast. First up is our chat with Kerry Goulet, who is of course the man behind Stop Concussions and the Ice Hockey Classic tour that hits Australia each June. Kerry has a ton of great stories from his years as a player and an advocate of the game, so strap yourselves in for one hell of a chat! Oh yeah, make sure you listen closely, as there's a few tips as to which NHL players are making their way down under this June...

Episode 51 - Interview with Kerry Goulet, The Ice Hockey Classic 2017 Australian Tour

THE POST SEASON SURELY DOES DREDGE UP SOME ISSUES... Hooly dooly, there's a little bit going on at the moment, both on and off the ice. We tackle about the league's public marks regarding recreational drug use, the OHL's mammoth lawsuit and of course, we mercilessly mock those who came off worst in this year's NHL draft lottery. Also, the Pittsburgh media seems to have lost its marbles over the Sid hit. Put the tin foil hats away, boys. Oh yeah, we talk about the third week of the 2016-17 Stanley Cup playoff action as well and where we see the chips falling. Presented (as always) by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 50 - Lawsuits? Drugs? The blame game & Trotz The Hatchet Man? What Is This?!

ROUND 2 IS HERE! Jack Eichel's influence over the Buffalo Sabres and discuss the LA Kings coaching decision and of course, we've made time for some quick (and not so shit) hits. Presented (as always) by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 49 - Round 2 Is Set, Jack Calls The Shots & LA Gets A New Top Dog

IT'S THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR! On tonight's show, we dish out some quick (and not so shit) hits before tackling the Week 1 Playoff action. Who saw the 'Hawks reeling this badly? Columbus getting manhandled by a Matt Murray & Kris Letang-less Penguins outfit? Turns out that we - along with the rest of the hockey media - truly know nothing. Presented as always by Cheapskate Hockey.

Episode 48 - A Week In Review: How To Not Pick Playoff Winners

2 GIRLS 1 PUCK ON HOLY PUCK? On tonight's show we catch up with Maddy of the 2 Girls 1 Puck hockey club and learn a little more about the mythical Perth street hockey league. In addition, we drop our round 1 playoff preview, finalise our individual award winners and discuss Cam's very public Fantasy Hockey failure. Presented by Cheapskate Hockey

Episode 47 - Interview with Maddy (2 Girls 1 Puck) and the Holy Puck playoff preview.

NO OLYMPICS? SURELY THERE ARE NO WINNERS HERE... The IOC. The NHL. The NHLPA. Villain? Victim? Crooks? You be the judge!

Episode 46 - A Gaggle Of Morons: How The IOC, NHL & NHLPA Cooked It

WHAT'S THIS? ANOTHER SPECIAL GUEST! On tonight's episode we catch up with our new pal JFK aka John Kennedy. John is a bit of an all-rounder, splitting his time between playing for the Newcastle North Stars, coordinating all things NSA Hockey and did we mention he's a former Yank now Australian citizen and playing for our national team? Clearly, he's a legend. In addition, we dish out some HOLY PUCK awards, as well as shooting the shit with our quick and, well, not so shit hits. Episode 45, get around it.

Episode 45 - Interview with John Kennedy (Newcastle North Stars / NSA Hockey)

BUFFALO, NOW WITH ADDED SUCCESS! Why hasn't the sports writing community embraced the Beauts' win and elevated them from the bottom of the sports loserdom ladder? Will NBA fans please (no seriously, please) stop getting excited about "fights" and "tough" moments in 2017 and most importantly, is Brucey B the Party Pie King?

Episode 44 - The Buffalo Beauts: A Win For Both Team & Town

LOOSEY GOOSEY IS HERE TO STAY! On tonight's show we rant hard. Maybe even harder than normal. Why are Bettman and co trying to suck the fun out of the expansion draft? Well, it's because they're actually spuds, that's why. It's ok though, we're going to breathe some life into the league's end of season awards speculation circuit, so buckle up, you're in for a bumpy one!

Episode 43 - The Blurred Lines Between Our Weekly Waffle & Baseless Bullshit Banter

ANOTHER GUEST FOR EPISODE 42! This episode we catch up with new friend of the poddy Bert Haines who gives us the low down on his hockey journey, thoughts on the Vancouver Canucks, the state of the New Zealand hockey community and who he is backing for the cup this year. We also cover off the trade deadline: the winners, the losers, the highs and lows, the fans who were jibbed and what GMGM’s plans are leading through his first signing and beyond. Some big awards this week, which is basically another chance for us to rubbish Marc Bergevin! Huge episode, get on board!

Episode 42 – Interview with Bert Haines, Captain of the New Zealand Ice Blacks
