This is such a tedious podcast. Elliotte believes everything he utters is podcast gold. It’s not. Every sentence does not need to be emphasized by repetition. The content for the most part is fine but not exactly revelatory and the delivery of it makes me yearn for a more entertaining hockey podcast or for sleep to finally come.

I totally disagree w your take on the fact that it is non NHL players responsibility not to injure NHL players. It’s just crazy to ask these kids to play hard and physical but don’t hurt a veteran? That’s a stupid request of anyone that plays physical. As fast as this game moves and it’s getting faster year to year there are going to be injuries. Making it even more simple it is a contact sport and should remain a contact sport and injuries happen. You never want to see players injured but what’s the alternative make it a non contact sport if that’s even possible
