Robin and Wyatt (and occasionally Scott and his beautiful singing voice) hop on the podcast to discuss the Entry Draft as the picks come in, while also touching on the expansion draft and how Seattle is doing so far, and all the wild trades coming in over the last couple days. They go until pick 18 (Jets) and then mercifully sign off after almost two hours.

Let's Get Pucked Up

S2E15 - Draft and Trade Extravaganza

Scott Dowler and Wyatt Danowski join as guests to make their picks for the Seattle Kraken expansion draft now that the official protection lists are available to the public. Robin and Scott have made quite a few changes from their previous go-around a week ago, while Wyatt is going pure chaos by making his picks live, on-the-spot, and stipulating that he will not pick a single player either Robin or Scott takes. They have also tasked themselves with making hypothetical trades with other teams who may need some help from the Kraken to alleviate cap issues, or who just want to make a good old fashioned hockey trade. In any case, there are a lot of moving parts and variables, but the end results prove that the Kraken should be able to put together a playoff-calibre team this year, proving yet again how favourable this expansion draft formula truly is.

S2E14 - Mock Expansion Draft 2.0 - Chaos Ensues

Scott Dowler joins the podcast for a Seattle Kraken mock expansion draft. We went to CapFriendly, set our protected lists and picked our teams, and now we're comparing them against each other, as well as a panel of three experts who did a mock draft at The Athletic. *Note: This episode was recorded the evening prior to the Duncan Keith trade, so, yes, we are psychic.

S2E13 - Mock Expansion Draft

Guest Wyatt Danowski joins host Robin Kooymans for a massive content dump on the first episode of Let's Get Pucked Up in over a month. We talk the Lightning winning a cup, the Conn Smythe debate, Kucherov's epic presser/airing of grievances, our own airing of NHL grievances for things that have annoyed us in the past month, the magical run the Habs had and how they might do next year, can Tampa three-peat?, NHL awards, the untimely passing of Matiss Kivlenieks, and lastly how excited we are for the expansion draft, NHL draft, and free agency at the end of July.

S2E12 - Airing of Grievances

Having hit rock bottom from the Leafs' epic collapse the night before, host Robin Kooymans turns, perhaps unwisely on one account, to the company of friends for some cheering up. He is joined by Wyatt Danowski in Winnipeg and Devan Grainger in China to try and figure out what the hell the Leafs do after their fifth straight first round exit. After exploring a number of Mitch Marner trade options, the trio turns to discussing the newly announced Vezina finalists, previewing the Habs/Jets series, and for once taking a look around the rest of the league to discuss how the playoffs are going stateside and who they like moving forward.

S2E11 - What Now? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Wyatt Danowski and Devan Grainger join from Winnipeg, Canada and Xian, China, respectively, to deliver spicy hot takes on the Jets' recent sweep of the Oilers, and the Leafs building a commanding 3-1 lead over the Habs.

S2E6 - Jets > Thrashers

Scott "Prowler" Dowler and Ryan "Cousin" Kooymans join as guests this episode to discuss a wide range of topics including which NHL fan base is suffering the most right now, is Sidney Crosby a top 5 hockey G.O.A.T., Claude Julien's firing, other coaches on the hot seat, and if the Canucks still have any hope at making the playoffs. Oh, and also, Mike Babcock drops by yet again to tell us about his new job and his changed ways. Listen, won't you?

S2E3 - Tone-Deaf DeAngelo

Wyatt Danowski and Devan Grainger stop by as guests to discuss the state of the Jets and Leafs following one of many delightful matches to come between our favourite teams. We are then greeted by new NBC Hockey Analyst and friend of the podcast, Mike Babcock, to discuss his new role on NBC, the Edmonton Oilers, and his new line of merchandise he&#x27;ll be selling through NBC among other things. We finish things off by talking about our top surprises of the new season, and make a set of ridiculously early spicy hot takes based on data gathered from the first few games of the season.

S2E1 - Let Me Put on My Prognosticator's Hat

A podcast where Canadian stereotypes meet and are perpetuated to a sickening degree, as your host, Robin Kooymans, invites friends to his cozy Yellowknife abode to drink beer, talk hockey, and accept his apologies when he talks too much about hockey minutiae rather than being a good host.
