Cascadia Hockey Podcast

Summer is here...so we're dipping out for a bit. We bring an eventful season 2 of Cascadia Hockey to a close in the latest episode. Hopefully when we return, so will have hockey. Ferda!

It's not the heat, it's the humidity. NHL teams started hitting the ice this week for limited activity. Everett Silvertips netminder Dustin Wolf wins yet another award. Some players have decided they've had enough of the culture and have decided to do something about it. All of this on this week's episode. Ferda!

After a few weeks off, we're back with a little bit of a deeper episode of West Side Story. We welcome a special guest, author Angie Abdou, whose book "Home Ice: Reflections of a Reluctant Hockey Mom" dives into the story of the culture of hockey families raising young athletes. The conversation took some different routes, but all seemed to lead to some meaningful conversations. Give it a listen!

We are tired...so tired. Not really, just being dramatic. But as this all drags on, so do we! The National League issued a statement about relaunch plans. Did Seattle miss its opportunity to make a big deal about their branding reveal? Who knows? Join us. Reach out to us! hello@buriedpuckthreads.com Ferda! Music Courtesy of Strange Famous Records

Some sports are beginning to show signs of life, while others are back at it. Where does hockey fall in that spectrum? We have no clue, but on this week's podcast episode, we do our best to make you think we do. It's entertaining at the very least. Ferda! Please like and share with your friends and enemies!

The "Regular Guy" was struggling this week...with his allergies. Scouts honor. Week 3...or 4...whatever the hell it is now in quarantine has brought about the usual shenanigans. Banter topics include, how the NHL should resume, how California loves street hockey and ultimate frisbee, and we take listener questions live thanks to Houtzenstein and his Twitch expertise.

On this week’s episode of Cascadia Hockey, a familiar voice joins the crew for a reunion. In the Western League, there are 3 players expected to apply for exceptional status at this year’s Batam draft. Is that good? And, Brandon Manning faced the music after his suspension ended.

We delve into quite a bit this week. The ugly side of humanity that rears its head from time-to-time, a weekend winning streak, NHL winners and losers so far, and of course...season 7 of Letterkenny is now live in the States. Ferda! Opening and Closing music courtesy of Strange Famous Records
