    Captain Korbinian

    A championship captain, a beloved former Duck, and the next chapter of a hockey life. On Episode 15 of The Mask & The Mic, Guy Hebert and Kent French welcome former Anaheim Ducks defenseman Korbinian Holzer to the show following one of the most memorable seasons of his career. Korbinian recently captained the Moser Medical Graz99ers to the first championship in franchise history in Austria’s ICE Hockey League — an accomplishment that meant everything to the players, coaching staff, ownership, and the city of Graz. He reflects on the emotional championship run, the unforgettable celebration that followed, and the incredible gift the team owner gave the players after winning it all. The conversation also marks the close of an incredible professional hockey journey, as Korbinian recently announced his retirement after 20 years of professional hockey. Guy and Kent revisit Korbinian’s NHL career, including the moment he was traded to Anaheim and what it was like spending five seasons with the Ducks organization. Korbinian also opens up about what comes next — stepping into coaching and management as the future coach and GM of Germany’s U20 Junior Team. He shares how he’s preparing for the role, the lessons he learned throughout his playing career, and which former Ducks head coach has become an important mentor during the transition. And yes… the guys also revisit some of the more unforgettable moments away from the rink — including photo shoots featuring Korbinian dressed as a circus conductor. This episode is about leadership, reinvention, championships, and what it means to walk away from the game on top. Subscribe to TheMaskTheMic YouTube Channel

    Stanley Cup Playoffs - Second Round!

    The playoff intensity keeps rising — and so do the stories. On Episode 14 of The Mask & The Mic, Guy Hebert and Kent French continue their deep dive into Anaheim Ducks playoff hockey as the Ducks move from an emotional first-round victory over the Edmonton Oilers into a second-round battle with the Vegas Golden Knights. Guy shares what it was like experiencing Game 6 of the Ducks/Oilers series from the stands instead of the crease — and proves that once you’re a goalie, you’re always a goalie. During a tense moment late in the game, Guy admits he was still trying to make saves from his seat… resulting in spilled wine on the fan behind him. The conversation then shifts to Game 1 against Vegas, where the Ducks suffered a tough loss despite outplaying the Golden Knights for much of the night. Guy and Kent break down two key turning points — young Ducks defenseman Jackson LaCombe passing instead of shooting at an open net, and the controversial no-icing call that directly led to the game-winning goal. The guys also recap the wild Game 1 matchup between the Minnesota Wild and Colorado Avalanche, where the Avalanche survived an old-school playoff shootout with a 9–6 victory. To close the episode, Guy previews the upcoming Anaheim Ducks Alumni Golf Tournament at Pelican Hill Golf Club in Newport Beach and shares which former Ducks legends are expected to attend. From playoff drama to alumni stories and behind-the-scenes moments, Episode 14 brings you inside the Stanley Cup Playoffs through the eyes of a former NHL goaltender and broadcaster.

    Shoot or Get Off The Pond!

    A throwback mindset for a modern playoff run. Episode 13 of The Mask & The Mic takes its title from a classic 1997 Mighty Ducks playoff t-shirt — “Shoot or Get Off The Pond!” — featuring Guy Hebert. And the message couldn’t be more relevant as the Anaheim Ducks push for a deep run in the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs. At the time of recording, the Ducks lead their first-round series 3–1 against the Edmonton Oilers and head back to Edmonton for a pivotal Game 5. Guy Hebert and Kent French break down the first four games of the series, including the controversial overtime winner by Ryan Poehling, the rising impact of role players in the postseason, and the standout play of young Ducks defenseman Jackson LaCombe. The conversation also dives into how Anaheim has managed to defend one of the game’s most dynamic players, Connor McDavid, and what role goaltending will play as the series continues. Is the window to win closing in Edmonton? Can the Ducks close it out on the road? And what does the bigger Western Conference playoff picture look like? This episode is a deep dive into playoff hockey — where execution, depth, and mindset define everything. Subscribe to TheMaskTheMic YouTube Channel

    The Continentals & NHL Chaos

    A championship, some late-season drama, and headlines across the sports world — Episode 9 has it all. We open this week’s episode by celebrating a historic moment for Hamilton College Continentals as the men’s hockey team captures its first-ever Division III NCAA National Championship. For Guy Hebert, this one hits close to home. As a proud alumnus, Guy shares what it meant to watch the game unfold — made even more special as a true family affair, with both he and his wife attending Hamilton, and his daughter representing Hobart College Statesmen, the very team Hamilton defeated in the final. From there, we shift to the rapidly approaching end of the NHL regular season — and the headlines are heating up. The Vegas Golden Knights make a surprising move, parting ways with head coach Bruce Cassidy and bringing in veteran coach John Tortorella. Meanwhile, the Toronto Maple Leafs shake up their front office, moving on from general manager Brad Treliving as the postseason looms. We also head to Major League Baseball, where the Seattle Mariners make waves by signing 20-year-old prospect Colt Emerson to a massive $95 million contract extension — the largest ever for a player yet to make his MLB debut. What does this mean for the future of the game? All that and more on this week’s episode of The Mask & The Mic — where we break down the stories, the moments, and everything in between.

Guy takes us inside the Pacific Life Celebrity Classic, the marquee kickoff to Hoag Classic week, where over 70 professional athletes and celebrities come together for a one-day charity tournament supporting the Hoag Hospital Foundation. Paired with former Ducks goaltender Ryan Miller, Guy shares what it was like walking the fairways, engaging with fans, and teeing it up alongside icons — including NFL Hall of Famer Jerry Rice. And yes… we break down the “butter cut” — that perfectly struck fade off the first tee. Meanwhile, Kent heads south to Petco Park with his family for their first experience with the Savannah Bananas — and quickly discovers that Banana Ball is more than a game… it’s a full-blown phenomenon. From nonstop entertainment to fan interaction and on-field antics, Kent recaps the energy and magic that’s redefining what a baseball experience can be.
