In this podcast James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay discuss the new look of the team following the trade deadline, who’s hot and who’s not, and they say a fond farewell to some now former Avs. Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff in episode #149 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Thanks for your support, Avs friends!

James’ favorite hockey things since the last show:

Jagr Bobblehead Giveaway Postponed: 25,000 Jaromir Jagr bobbleheads are nowhere to be found. Going to be interesting to see where the story goes from here.

5 on 5 Goalie Madness: They know how to party in Bellingham, Washington. This sounds awesome. Here’s the link to a Reddit post as well.

Jay’s favorite hockey things since the last show:

Where are you going, Bo?: Bo Byram’s debut on Buffalo’s PP1 almost needed the Benny Hill theme music over the top of it. If you’re on X make sure to read the comments as well. Some great stuff in there.

Patrick Roy is a man of the people: Patrick Roy makes sure to take care of the fan behind the Islanders bench who is wearing a vintage Patrick Roy Avalanche t-shirt. Good hockey stuff.

“Chill, fellas.” – Big Z, probably: Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar punish a Canucks player while trying to dislodge a puck that’s actually 150 feet away. Welcome to the league, kid.

In this podcast, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay discuss some of the many strange things that have happened so far this season, players getting back into the lineup as the team gets healthier, and Nathan MacKinnon bringing the noise in historic fashion. Those topics and a whole bunch more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode #148 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Happy 2024 All-Star break, friends!

James and Jay’s favorite hockey things since their last show:

James: NPR documented a rookie goaltender’s journey in professional hockey. Part one is here and part two is here.

There HAS to be cleaner places to wash your mouth guard, but oh well.

Jay: The Condor returns to Ball Arena on December 13, 2023

Nathan MacKinnon gets us to love him even more with this pass.

In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay discuss a never boring month of Avalanche hockey, two gorgeous overtime game winning goals, all-star players (and a coach too), and Jay shares some seriously smokin’ hot takes. Those topics and plenty more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode #134 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Happy New Year and thanks for the support, friends!

How about some throwback hockey? We don’t get to see heavyweight bouts like this one between Kurtis MacDermid and Ryan Reaves (on December 14) very often at all anymore.

Cale Makar had a chance to end overtime on January 4 in Chicago and he did NOT disappoint. What a goal.
Too many men in Nashville on January 11th? It might be worth another look.

Check out Kukla’s Korner. It’s a good hockey resource which has been around for a very long time.

Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode #133 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Thanks for listening, friends!

Cale Makar’s out here making more history and being mentioned with the greats of the game. He’s just getting started too.
Congrats to The Captain for joining some exclusive Avalanche company.
