Protect Sammy at all costs!
Sammy is a gem to the leafs community, always straight bangers with him! Kyper is an OG beauty and Bourney is elite. Honestly listening to these 3 go back and forth everyday is better then half the leafs games I watch.
Keep it up boys, thanks for bringing great takes and just an all around fun atmosphere to a wild fan base
Best Hockey Talk Show
Huge fan of the show! I love what Nick, Justin and of course Sammy! Bring to each episode, as they most of the time have different opinions on hockey topics, which keeps things fresh and can change your perspective once you’ve heard each side of they’re arguments, as Kyper and Bourne bring the expertise in the hockey subjects and Sammy has more of a fans point of view, which they all complement each other the best of any hockey talk show available!
Love the show guys!
Kyper is awful
Just going to say it. One too many concussions for Kypreos. His takes are just awful. He's incoherent. Bourne find someone else to pod with.
