For episode 68, you would think the Jaromir Jagr would come up once, but he wasn’t the story when it came to the Flyers.  James O’Brien and I talk about Pronger and the impact his injury may have on visors, as well as what is going on in this crazy league, where the Stars are on top, the Leafs are a playoff team, and one of the best goalies in the league just isn’t good enough for some people.

I am honored to be joined by Dmitry Chesnokov, best known in North America for his interviews and writing on Puck Daddy.  Dmitry is what I consider the the King of Russian hockey, and is here to remind me of how little I really know about the KHL, Russian players and the hockey culture of Russia.

One series of round 2 wraps up while Tom and I record the podcast. the Capitals force game 7, and there is still a lot more to talk about.  The Bruins take the beating while winning. there is other talk about movement, and we get in a lightning round, at least, as much of one as Tom and I do.
