This week started off by going off the rails and ended by going off the rails. In between, we talked about being abandoned by Philip Holm, all of our teams are broken, and Collin Delia being good at goalie-ing again. Oh, and Courtney may have shipped Corey Crawford out in a trade. We love these teams but they make us sad.

Did you know that ice is cold? We chat about recent hockey news. But, then we put a nice bow on this golden decade of Blackhawks Hockey. It's been a wild ride and deserves to be remembered. We go over the playoffs, the signings, the trades, and so much more.

We accidentally took two weeks off. BUT WE'RE BACK! We talk about our adventure to the East Coast and whatever the heck the Blackhawks are doing. The IceHogs are doing pretty okay though!

We hoped for a peaceful week, but a peaceful week is not what we got. We talk about more coach accusations with Babcock, Bill Peters, and Marc Crawford. The IceHogs are on a two game winning streak and have a new captain. The Blackhawks are still broken, and Courtney is still convinced they need a new captin.

This is a short episode today. We are sitting on a hard floor under a blanket. It wasn't super comfortable. Plus, things are going well in HawkHog land. We talk Versteeg, Gilbert, the three goalie system, and the off anf on wins for the Hogs. We also chat a win streak, some point streaks, and Kirbaliciousness for the Hawks!

On this week's episode we discover that the IceHogs can only win at home when Courtney is there. They break their winning streak but begin a new one against the Wolves. The Blackhawks are still broken, but at least they're getting points. We figure they may as well stack their players on top of each other to make a double-sided player. Yes - really. Just listen!

In this episode of From Center Ice, we take you around the league with 'Twitter Takes'. Then, we settle in to talk about our teams. What has gone good and bad for the Blackhawks. What has gone very, very wrong for the IceHogs. It's only a few games into the season, but we are losing our minds already.

The season starts in two days, and the NHL is already on its nonsense. We have to, unfortunately, cover more racism in hockey in this episode. And the Auston Matthews ordeal. Then, we try to take it lighter by covering the RFA signings, Blackhawks preseason, and our predictions for the year! Hang in there. We go all around the league and back.

On the best episode of From Center Ice to date, Cat Silverman (The Athletic, InGoal) joins us to chat about goalies.

HOCKEY IS BACK AND WE ARE THRILLED. And also stressed out. Of course we go over the recent signings and some Twitter takes. But, this one is more of what the heart of From Center Ice is - an IceHogs/Blackhawks podcast. We were at the Training Camp Festival, so we cover that as well as the first preseason game!
