Fusion; An Hockey Podcast

Nadia Popovici is a hero, the IIHF are really bad at this, Alex lives near a World Junior legend, and also claims the rights to the 2013 Norris trophy. Also Taisei made a very mediocre quiz. Instagram: fusionanhockeypodcast Twitter: @Alexsnewhandle @taiseifu

We talk very, very briefly about the Minnesota Wild, and then a deeper dive into Score: A Hockey Musical, and then the rise in Covid cases, and then Paul Maurice resigning, and the a Christmas Songs Draft. Instagram: fusionanhockeypodcast Twitter: @Alexsnewhandle @taiseifu

This week we discuss the Islanders, the Canucks' front office changes, the Flyers' coaching changes, the Coyotes' arena situation, the viral Zegras/Milano goal, a terrible hockey movie, and Guess Who: Anaheim Instagram: fusionanhockeypodcast Twitter: @Alexsnewhandle @taiseifu

This week is Kraken week. After mulling over the surprise incompetence of Philipp Grubauer, we dissect the newest additions to the ugly-jersey club, discuss the stunning omission of Brandt Clarke from Canada’s WJC preliminary roster, and partake in an extremely one-sided self-indulgent quiz.
