    This week on the podcast, we're adding one of the greatest sports game of all time to the Endless List in NHL '94. Depending on where and when you grew up, this might have been a staple in your gaming repetoire in the '90s. The game brought improvements like one-timers and full goalie control to the NHL series. It was also the first time the NHL series had both the NHL license for teams and the NHLPA license for players. And there was one of the all time sports video game characters: Jeremy Roenick. Where did it land on the Endless List? Find out on the podcast or check out the complete Endless List here.
