Not a patch on last seasons post game offering

14/12/2022

🇬🇧 hockey fan

This show replaced Brent Gunnings show this season offering post game reaction to leafs games and since then I’ve been left really disappointed by its lack of post game interviews and content whilst at the same time the number of technical difficulties they’ve experienced due to the show being conducted online is horrendous. The latest episode I listened to was cut short at 17 minutes as presumably the internet went down on one of the presenters. Poor poor production and the sound quality is rubbish also.
