Episode 76: Luke Esposito. Luke comes from quite the bloodline of hockey players. His grandfather Doug Messier played in the WHL-Sr, uncle Paul Messier had a long pro career that included 6 seasons here in Mannheim and of course, his other uncle Mark Messier, whose career and Hall of Fame NHL resume speaks for itself. I first saw Luke play last season when he was in Augsburg and I really liked his game. An undersized player with lots of skill, but he also plays the game the right way and isn't afraid to play hard/with grit. We talked about his upbringing in USA and his journey through high school hockey. Luke would play 1 season in the BCHL before earning the chance to attend D1 Harvard University. Harvard is a prestigious school known for its academics and I was interested to talk to Luke about how he juggled both hockey and academics. We also talked about the strong teams he was apart of at Harvard that included 2 ECAC Championships, multiple players going on to have NHL careers and former prohockeypod guest and Luke's roommate, Tyler Moy. After graduating Harvard, Luke would begin his NA pro grind where he played 6 seasons in the AHL for Grand Rapids and Bakersfield. Luke went into detail about the things he learned in the AHL and taking on different roles on teams. We discussed how most teams in the AHL have many guys who could play top 6 roles but aren't giving the chance for multiple reasons, so like Luke, they have to find a way to contribute and help the team each night. After his 6th season in NA, Luke would venture over to Germany and join Augsburg in the DEL. He proved he could put up points in Germany and be an impact player, which earned him a contract here in Mannheim. We also talked a bit about Luke's love for the sport of golf and why he is so interested in it. Hope you enjoy!

First for those not familiar with today's topic, let's take a second to set some context. Currently the NCAA does not allow players to play DIV 1 that are considered pro or have played pro hockey. This has included the CHL (WHL, OHL, QMJHL) This is why players like Macklin Celebrini play in leagues like the USHL, BCHL etc and maintain their NCAA eligibility. So what has happened to potentially change this, why now? If this change happens, it will drastically change the landscape of junior hockey and the player development path, in literally every league! Currency the CHL/NHL agreement prevents players from joining the AHL. Some players like Shane Wright and recently Mitch Marner were good examples of tweeners - too good for OHL, not quite ready for NHL. Many think the AHL would be a good place for them to develop. If the NCAA becomes an option do you think we could see 19 year old players playing in the NCAA vs older competition for better development. And if this becomes a reality, does the CHL/NHL transfer agreement get revisited as a result? The USHL is a feeder league for the NCAA, if the CHL soon becomes a feeder league, could there be a union where the jr hockey map is completely redrawn that includes the CHL leagues and the USHL? If so could we see theMemorial Cup replace the host city (which is heavily flawed) with the USHL champions and simply have a host city?
