Episodes

Ep. 97: We Didn't Do It, Joe 08.06.2024

A new episode? In less than two weeks? Surely we jest. We've got a whole lot to say about the end of the PWHL season as Minnesota wins the Walter Cup and then immediately tarnishes their victory. In other news we've got soliloquys for Joe Pavelski, who announced his retirement, the rumored Major League Hockey 3 on 3 league, the continued wild ride of Valeri Nichushkin, jokes about Drake, M...

Ep. 96: Hot Girl Summer of Marner 31.05.2024

What? Only two weeks in between episodes? Somebody must have some down time. In this one we talk about all the playoffs, the PWHL is wrapping up, the NHL is heating up, the coaching carousel has been up and we play a new game: Who Says No? The Mitch Marner Edition. All this, tons of jokes, talk about hot dogs and Evan tells a story about Dutch windmills. Thanks for listening!

Ep. 95: Yotes On The Run 16.05.2024

The NHL does everything five years too late. Getting rid of two line passes, putting out NFTs and now moving the Yotes out of the Phoenix metro area up to SLC. We talk all about this, the ongoing NHL and PWHL playoffs, the NHL coaching carousel, the perpetual news cycle that has become Valeri Nichushkin's life, upcoming dates for the Canadian 2018 World Junior Team and all sorts of other silly...

Ep. 94: Cocaine Reels and Trade Feels 09.03.2024

Six weeks is a legit time between episodes, yeah? We are back and we've got Adam Ruzicka's White Pony moment, Matthew Rempe's quest for relevance, fired coaches, a brief synopsis of the trades that happened before deadline day, PWHL trades, MGM getting cut, Upper Deck and the PWHL becoming trading card bedfellows, jokes and other miscellanea for your thirsty hockey brains. Thanks for l...

Ep. 93: Roy Pourquoi? 01.02.2024

Evan and Jake talk about the only thing that's mattered in Portland over the last month with a dialogue on crappy weather but then actually get into the hockey taking a deep dive on the 2018 Canadian World Junior arrests, some PWHL news, the Islanders hiring Patrick Roy as head coach, the University of Michigan exploring a D1 women's hockey program, more players entering the player assista...

Ep. 92: Broken Jaws and Broken Philly Hearts 12.01.2024

Episode 92 is here and also it is here. Philly looses Cutter Gauthier before ever even signing him. Philly fans, of course, send him death threats. PWHL takes off, breaking records showing off the true skill, speed and physicality of the game. Lame bros everywhere still try and tell everyone that nobody will watch. USA#1 as they dominate their way through the World Juniors. Connor Bedard gets welc...

Ep. 91: Patrick Kane and Other Things That Bring Jake Pain 15.12.2023

Perfect Baby Dylan Larkin is hurt. Patrick Kane is a Red Wing. Jake is all up in his feelings. In non Detroit news we talk about Sanni Hakala's life changing injury, PWHL roster updates and ticket sales updates, the Capitals moving out of the capital, Nino Niederreiter's new deal, John Tavares hits 1000 and, as always, lots of chuckles. Thank you for listening and stay handsome!

Ep. 90. Gary's Balls of Mold 05.12.2023

Episode 90 is here and it's a quick listen for your earholes and you're damn right we've got Corey Perry hot takes. The NHL fails us once again by telling Marc Andre Fleury to not wear a mask celebrating Indigenous Heritage Night and honoring his wife, also with its always changing definition of what is suspension worthy and what is A-O-K, Jacob Trouba. The Red Wings also disappoint by...

Ep. 89: Beer League Jerseys Are Better 16.11.2023

We're back! Arrests are made in the wake of Adam Johnson's death, the Chicago Hockey Team gets sued again, the Oilers are super bad, and the PWHL doesn't seem to be doing anything right. We've got all that and some quick hits on Patrick Kane, Jaromir Jagr, Laila Edwards and more. Thanks for listening

Ep. 88: Season Previews Are for Chumps 04.11.2023

If you can't tell by the title, we didn't bother with a season preview this season. We were busy. Leave us alone. Hockey started without us and the Senators keep making headlines. We talk about the downfalls of Pierre Dorion and Shane Pinto, Pride Tape, Adam Johnson's tragic passing, the PWHL's supposed team names, Vancouver's hot start, Edmonton's wet fart, the Calder race...

Ep. 87: No Lunch For You 30.09.2023

It's new episode time. We've got the eternal Mike Babcock jokes galore, we've got PWHL draft, lots of jokes about hockey players making silly mistakes with the women in their lives and Biosteel going bankrupt. Thank you for listening and we hope you enjoy.

Ep. 86: No One Really Ever Dies 07.09.2023

You may be asking yourself, "is this a new episode of the Handsome Hockey Podcast?" Yes. The answer is yes. Jake and Evan have been traversing this broad land to and fro but they are back to proselytize hockey and get bummed about hockey culture. That said, we're talking Bill Peters, Rocky Wirtz, and Mitchell Miller. But we've also got good stuff. The PWHL has signed players! Puckd...

Ep. 85: In Russian Scottsdale Galchenyuks You 28.07.2023

Vacations are momentarily done and we are back! Episode 85 is here and, when we were able to rein it in from our many tired tangents, you may have guessed that we've got more hot takes on the murder and execution of the PHF by the PWHPA. We also definitely don't make fun of Alex Galchenyuk because we want to keep our kidneys. We also talk about some recent transactions, more David Reinbach...

Ep 84: I'm In Mergers & Acquisitions 07.07.2023

Sometimes in the offseason you acquire players through the draft, sometimes you acquire players through free agency, and sometimes you swallow whole hockey leagues like you're Kirby. In this episode, we cover all three of these situations as the NHL gets into the offseason swing, and seismic shifts occur in the Women's professional hockey landscape.

Ep. 83: Misfits Talking Misfits 22.06.2023

Did you know that Vegas won the Stanley Cup? If not, we're sorry for that spoiler. In this episode we recap the Finals, including Marchessault's Conn Smythe, Jack Eichel's redemption arc, Phil Kessel because we love him and a fun Portland connection. We also talk about Jesper Bratt's new contract, OEL's lack of contract, the Rangers making weird coaching hires, and a whole lot...

Ep. 82: The One With The Taylor Swift References 09.06.2023

Looky, looky, a new episode. We are back with discourse on Katey Stone's "retirement" from Harvard, the Ivan Provorov trade, a bunch of hiring and firing including Kyle Dubas and Brad Treliving, Andrew Shaw showing his whole ass and more fun in the Arizona desert. Oh yeah! And the Stanley Cup Finals are happening. We've got recaps of the conference finals and the first three games...

Ep. 81: The NHL is Rigged and Other Sentiments 19.05.2023

Hi there, friends. As you might guess from the title, we are talking about the totally rigged and bullshit NHL draft lottery. Evan tries to be sensible but Jake's rage will not be contained. We also talk Stanley Cup Playoffs, PHF free agency make ALL CAPS BIG MOVES, the Yotes seemingly inevitable relocations (move to Anchorage!), the Portland Winterhawks drafting the first American woman in WH...

Ep. 80: Kittens Came Out to Play 06.05.2023

Oh hey there, friends. We're still alive and we did that recording thing again. In this episode we talk about NHL firings, bad antics within the Niagara IceDogs, Hilary Knight going plaid and USA#1. We then dive into the Stanley Cup Playoffs, recapping the first round and kinda talking about the second, including the Pretty Kitty Florida Panthers working everyone, PK Subban and Eddie Olczyk pu...

Ep. 79: You're Saying There's a Chance 15.04.2023

Quick episode for you this week. Evan has words about Jonathan Toews understated last game for Chicago. Jake disagrees with most of it even when he's being completely rational. We talk about the Bruins having the best regular season ever, the women's world championship, preview the playoffs, update on tankathon, Keith Tkachuk, Gabe Landeskog and Carson Briere. All that and more in this one...

Ep. 78: No Reimer Reason 31.03.2023

Hi there, Handsome Friends! We got lots a women's hockey. Toronto takes a cup home (no, it's not the Leafs), Harvard women's hockey comes under the eye of Katie Strang and Hailey Salvian. OHL organizations have been accepting bribes to draft people's sons. Lori Laughlin could have told them how this ends. We then have a long discourse on NHL Pride Nights, James Reimer's religio...

Ep. 77: Chest Hair and Hockey 11.03.2023

New episode alert! It has been a couple weeks so we have a lot to catch up on. The Kraken will wear indigenous-made sweater patches next year, Spencer Knight is in the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program, the PHF announces their finals destination, Shannon Turner hangs em up, the PWHPA will eventually announce something, and Loren Gabel is unsurprisingly awesome. The NHL trade deadline happened, K...

Ep. 76: Regional Drug Podcast 17.02.2023

Look at that, back to back weeks for the Handsome Boys. This week we touch on all the trade news thus far, juniors in Canada including the Daniel Carcillo report coming out, Zachary L'Heureux's 9th suspension and some reprieve from everything for a young Ukrainian team. There's also Tim Peel's bad behavior, Jakub Vrana's odyssey and why you never push someone onto your goalie....

Ep. 75: Boo You Horvat! 09.02.2023

Hi there, Handsome Friends! Episode 75 is upon you. As you may have guessed from the title we talk about the Bo Horvat trade, the NYR Pride Night debacle, the NHL ratings drop, Gary Bettman's lifetime achievement award, Robin Lehner Redux and we both profess our love for Montreal Force's Indigenous Women's jerseys. All this and a whole bunch of other shenanigans for your listening plea...

Ep. 74: Snakes and Homophobia 28.01.2023

What's this? Do my ears deceive me? It would appear that there's a new episode of the Handsome Hockey Podcast. In this one we plead with our listeners - and everyone, really - to help support The Ice Garden, and women's hockey in general, as they try and secure funding for their site. We also talk about Daryl Watts' new deal, Nela Lopušanová and the future women's hockey, Robin...

Ep. 73: Handsome Hockey's Naughty or Nice List 17.12.2022

We are in a festive mood and, in honor of Jake's prematurely white beard, felt like it was time to talk about our naughty or nice list. We create an award for Jordan Binnington, fans brawling in Winnipeg, fingers being bitten off in Tempe, Hockey Canada, MPP as the Canadian athlete of the year, Shane Wright gets his first goal, Wayne Simmonds being a stand up human and Corinne Schroeder doing...
