Having spent 16 seasons with 6 different teams as an NHL player, ‘Edzo’ knows the game. But, did you know he’s also a horse-racing enthusiast?? In fact, the Seattle Kraken and NHL on TNT broadcaster actually started his TV career in horse-racing! Olczyk spoke on his journey from the NHL to broadcasting, stories from playing and covering the game, and a short stint as Ray Ferraro’s teammate that included a ‘Grand Slam’ bet payday courtesy of Bobby Bonilla. Plus, how the Seattle Kraken pulled off their improbable victory over the Colorado Avalanche, ‘misfits’ making an impact on the sophomore team, and Seattle’s chances against Oettinger and the Stars.

In Headlines, the guys discuss Game 7 between the Devils and Rangers, Ray explains why Jacob Trouba’s MASSIVE hit on Timo Meier was clean, and the possibility of the NHL adopting International head contact rules. Plus, a disappointing end for a star-studded Rangers squad, splashy additions not making a difference, and if major changes are coming to New York.

Ray compares the Bruins collapse to his wife Cammi Granato’s 2002 USA hockey team’s run of dominance that came to an abrupt end; did a lack of ‘adversity’ play a factor in the Bruins demise? The firing of Calgary Flames head coach Darryl Sutter, the impact of player exit-meetings, and a disappointing season for the Flames rounds out Headlines.

Kris Abbott joins the pod and talks his ‘bank account’ reflecting a not-so-good average in his 1st round selections. However, it didn’t go much better for the guys in a WILD start to the NHL playoffs. The pod makes their Round 2 picks ahead of puck-drop tonight, and Kris lays out some under-the-radar bets that are worth a look on Betano.ca.
