Summary

Jeff kicks off a “laid back’ edition of the program with former defenceman turned Devils colour analyst, Ken Daneyko! They discuss how he recorded over 2000+ PIMs without being suspended and how the game has evolved from a physical standpoint over the years. Next, Josh Ho-Sang chats about his return to pro hockey with the ECHL’s Florida Everblades, as well as his ventures off the ice including a new app and rap album (32:40). Later on, former NHL referee and ESPN's lead rules analyst, Dave Jackson answers your questions on officiating including John Tortorella's ejection, what qualifies as goalie interference, how to become a referee, and much more (50:05)! Then, former Thrashers social media and website manager, Ben Wright discusses Anson Carter’s bid for the NHL to expand to Atlanta, when he began to hear the rumours, if he believes a team could thrive in Atlanta for a third time, and what went wrong in previous attempts (01:27:30). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
