We are nearly a full week into the 2021-22 NHL regular season . . . and the Chicago Blackhawks are a dumpster fire on ice. Let’s talk goaltending? and defense? The IceHogs are 1-1, though. And the Toronto Maple Leafs are playing pretty well, but they keep getting goalie’d. Especially by Anton FREAKIN Forsberg. Are you ready for an early season Stanley Cup Champ hot take? You better be!

9.5. 9.5. 9.5. That’s all we can think about. The Blackhawks signing Seth Jones for 9.5 million dollars. But also, why do we have Daylight Savings Time? And why do some states not have it? Nothing makes sense - especially the Chicago Blackhawks. We still have 7 goaltenders to figure out. Time is ticking!

This episode is all about how our teams torture us (mostly the IceHogs). The IceHogs lost 94 to Grand Rapids. The Blackhawks had a loss to Detroit, but then they had a wonderful game against them. Patrick Kane hit 400. The IceHogs might have a new owner soon. Oh, and Brandon Pirri is an IceHogs. All that and more!
