Episode description

Retired NHL Superstar Mike Cammalleri talks about his upcoming induction into the Richmond Hill Sports Hall of Fame [along with WWF Diva Trish Stratus!], his status as one of the greatest Jewish hockey players of all time [and his shared Italian heritage], playing for the University of Michigan Wolverines in front of 75,000 in the outdoor ‘Cold War’ game against Michigan State, his memories of being drafted by/scoring first goal for the Los Angeles Kings [and heading straight from practice to the beach], getting traded MID-GAME from the Habs to the Flames [“one team couldn’t wait to get rid of me, the other couldn’t wait to add me!”], scoring the NHL’s first ever goal in Europe, closing his career in Edmonton as teammates with Connor McDavid & Leon Draisaitl, and training with the late Charlie Francis after a serendipitous meetup at a Golden Griddle!
