Theo Fleury joins us in this episode. He and Russ swap memories of battling in the 1989 Stanley Cup (Theo's Flames beat Russ's Habs) then being teammates two years later in the Canada Cup. Theo talks a little about the Hall of Fame, saying being asked about it is one of his least favourite questions. He discusses how he had to create room for himself on the ice by getting creative. Some opponents would get his stick work, while others would get flattery. Theo and Russ are no fans of former referee Kerry Fraser. We discuss the game today versus the game in the 90s. An amazing story about the time Alan Eagleson came out of the stands, calling a timeout and then asking the American bench to help Canada. Theo talks about how his career might be different if a star teammate hadn't gotten injured. He also gets into his love of baseball and the Blue Jays. And finally he talks candidly about his youth and the all-too-common cycle of trauma, mental health and addiction, a cycle that came incredibly close to Theo taking his own life.

Hockey refs, much like the athletes they ensure play within the rules, are a tough bunch. On today's show we have one of the toughest and hardest working refs to ever lace up skates in the NHL, Kerry Fraser. Our guest this week, who retired in 2010 after a 30+ year career in the NHL where he reffed the most regular season games in league history, regales our hosts Kari Janisse and Mike Walsh with stories from his days on the ice, but also what made him the man he was then, and how he was blessed with a conversion in the mid-1990's that brought him closer to God and into full communion in the Catholic faith. It's a powerful conversation that speaks to the desire in all of us to find spiritual closeness with God, where it can come at any time, perhaps even on a drive along the Pennsylvania Turnpike as you're heading to ref a game in Pittsburgh.

A hot-button topic recently, just this past week there were countless instances where calls weren't being made, where stars were getting frustrated with the inconsistency in the games and one coach addressed the state of the NHL towards star players as troubling. It made sense to go straight to someone who would really know how to put a label on the problem. Our special guest this week was former NHL referee, Kerry Fraser.
On episode 40 of the Team Stripes podcast, we got to speak with the legend himself, Mr. Kerry Fraser! Kerry is one of the NHL's most accomplished referees, having worked almost 2000 NHL games, 250+ playoff games, and 13 Stanley Cup Finals. This is perhaps one of our most insightful interviews we've conducted. Be sure to share this interview to other referees! The knowledge that Kerry shares is outstanding. Hope you enjoy!
The 1992-93 Campbell Conference Final was riveting. 7 games in all, the series between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Los Angeles Kings had all the elements of high drama. In his new book, The Last Good Year (Viking / Penguin Random House), veteran sportswriter Damien Cox (Toronto Star, Sportsnet) revisits the events that took place on and off the ice a quarter-century after he covered them as a beat writer. Marty McSorley slugging it out with Wendel Clark. Pat Burns’ hot pursuit toward Barry Melrose. Don Cherry kissing Doug Gilmour on the cheek. Glenn Anderson’s OT winner. Game 6, Kerry Fraser, a high stick and a non-call, followed by “the best game” of Wayne Gretzky’s career two nights later at Maple Leaf Gardens. It’s all there, presented under the overarching theme that what transpired eventually marked a dividing line. The game was about to change under a newly hired commissioner and those 13 nights in May, define a now by-gone era. Lend us your ears for a conversation with Cox about what unfolded 25 years ago, that for so many, is as vivid as yesterday.

After almost two thousand games and thirty years of wearing the Stripes, legendary NHL official Fraser dropped his final puck at the end of the 2009/2010 season and relives his colourful career officiating hockey in his candid book. After thirty years in the NHL, legendary referee Kerry Fraser has decided to hang up his skates and enjoy the game from the other side of the boards. Never shy about offering his opinion, nor afraid to step in and separate an on-ice fight, the diminutive Fraser is without question one of the most respected officials in today's NHL. Fraser entered officiating after recognizing that his size would limit his chances as a player. Over the course of the almost two thousand NHL contests, he has shown himself to be an exemplary referee. In The Final Call, Fraser uses the seventy two games he is officiating in his farewell season as the centre piece of his story. He relives candid memories from each city he visits, such as the night he was pulled from the ice by the Boston police after a threat was made that if he skated out for the second period he would be shot. Fraser offers a colourful, behind-the-scenes portrait of our national game, recounting stories of pulling apart enraged 250-lb men in on-ice battles and divulging the politics behind which games are assigned to which refs. Although a referee's job and story may not appear as glamorous as that of a superstar player, it is every bit as entertaining!
When you evaluate a trade in sports years down the line if you'd still make the same trade again, that usually tells you which team won the exchange.In the case of the Kings sending Bernie Nicholls to the New York Rangers for Tomas Sandstrom and Tony Granato, of course they'd do that deal again.The offensive duo helped propel the Kings to new heights in the early '90s, including a trip to the Stanley Cup Finals in 1993.These days Granato is an assistant coach with the Pittsburgh Penguins. In the podcast below we cover a wide range of topics...On coaching, Granato talks about what it takes to be successful in the current NHL, what he learned from Barry Melrose and if he was ready to be a head coach when the Colorado Avalanche hired him.Regarding his days on the ice, he talks about playing in New York with Marcel Dionne, being traded to LA and the Kings 1993 playoff run - including the Marty McSorley stick incident.Other topics explored feature travel challenges in the Eastern vs. Western Conference, Staples Center vs. the Forum and choosing his jersey number.As if all that isn't enough, Granato also weighs in on the 'Should Rob Blake's number be retired in LA?' debate.Audio player available here.There were also two supplementary articles published this week with Granato. First, he talks about this year's Kings team and GM Dean Lombardi from his days in San Jose (linked here). Second, we play word association using many of his former teammates, a MayorsManor favorite (linked here).The Mayorwww.twitter.com/Mayor119 www.facebook.com/MayorsManor Other PODCASTS available:Audio interview with Ian LaperriereAudio interview with Kerry Fraser
Very few people in the world of hockey ever become as well known as the players on the ice.Then again, there aren't many people like Kerry Fraser either.He's perhaps the most recognizable referee in the history of hockey. In his 30-year career he managed to get under the skin of fans in nearly every NHL city. Yet, he was simply doing his job in most cases.At the end of last season he hung up his whistle after more than 2,000 games all across North America. He penned a book, The Final Call, while taking those last laps in stripes. It's a telling memoir featuring candid insight and often provides the emotion behind stories fans may not have otherwise been privy to.In the podcast below Fraser shares some of those memories. He talks about lecturing a young Mario Lemieux and the friction it created, allowing Mark Messier a little latitude when taking care of a situation on the ice and recalls a crushed Theo Fleury asking him for help.Of course, he also talks about several key events involving the Kings - including the non-call on Wayne Gretzky in the '93 playoffs vs. Toronto, Marty McSorley's illegal stick in the Stanley Cup Finals, coach Tom Webster throwing a stick at him and quite a bit more.He shares the experiences of receiving death threats, contemplates rule changes and offers opinions on calling penalties in the final minutes of play.Like many MayorsManor interviews, we also play word association and you may not believe what he has to say about guys like Gary Bettman, Chris Pronger, Sean Avery, Patrick Roy and several others. The most shocking though may be his comments on Alex Ovechkin.Take a listen here:http://www.mayorsmanor.com/2011/02/mayorsmanor-podcast-featuring-kerry.htmlAfter hearing his vivid accounts of the game, the players and the moments that have helped shape the last 30 years of hockey, you'll probably want to pick up a copy of his book, The Final Call.
