15: Long Live the Rat King

OMG They Were Teammates!

(August 7, 2022) Three hosts kvetch about signings, trades, and other off season content, then reveal their ~backstories.~ And, just for the record: yes, you could totally bless lemonade.

Social media

• Named for a legend: MPP the horse.
• Chase Priskie, big LinkedIn guy
• Jack Campbell makes a young goalie’s day.
• Joonas Donskoi saves a local skate park. His jersey’s in the rafters.
• Habs culture, a segment by Jess. Talk about a potential Cole number switch please.
• Christina Marleau roasts her husband.
• K’Andre Miller makes a lifelong fan.
• The Russians all hang out in the off-season. For *charity*.
• Ty and Dylan Jackson, Leafs prospects and twins, finish each other’s… sentences.
• Mikko Lehtonen. The roasting of Steve will never end.
• Sedins used to switch jerseys and used their twin powers for *chaos*.

Representation station

• Luke Prokop, 1 year after coming out

Trades and signings:

• Beat reporters, sharing the tea after trades. Dylan Strome talks fast.
• The Matthew Tkachuk trade. At least one joke about how Puff can say his name in Edmonton now. Brady has opinions. Probably because Matthew stole his thunder. Sportsnet article about asking for a trade.
• Do we have thoughts and comments on any of the other trades? Which ones do we like/hate/etc?

Avs Stanley Cup tour

• It wasn’t just ice cream: Jack Johnson’s kids baptized in Stanley Cup.
• Darcy Kuemper taking the cup to a local hospital and showing it to the kids.

Games and off-season content

• Who are we, what are our teams and how did we get there
• Goal songs for players, our suggestions.
