NHL Legend & Hall of Famer CHRIS PRONGER
Спорт
A household name for all hockey fans during the 2000's and member of the Hockey Hall of Fame class of 2015, Chris Pronger joins the podcast to chat with Bob and John.
The three start the podcast talking about a recent twitter thread authored by Chris shedding some light on the financial struggles many NHL players face post NHL career. The three discuss the lack of financial knowledge and help players have when entering the league which leads to a rude awakening once these athletes stop competing.
We also talk with Chris about his career, the cities he played in and what he thinks about the NHL today as we get closer and closer to the NHL playoffs.

I met Chris Pronger promoting his new Canadian Whiskey release last month. Was awesome. Can't remember this dude being that tall... Huge. His Brother Sean is a great gentleman as well. Best of luck you two! Cheers!
Thanks for posting this. It made my time washing the dishes fly by. Keep ‘‘em coming.
Getting stronger with Chris Pronger.
Excellent interview. The money retention aspect reminds of some of the horror stories told about people in the entertainment business (like MC Hammer for instance).
Great interview!!!
One of the biggest hockey object lessons: Bobby Orr and R. Alan Eagleson.
There are hundreds of financial advisors to help players. Can't help people who don't want help.
Lets be kinda honest please. Doesn't the NHLPA have union agreements with clubs regarding reimbursement costs? In the same union, don't they have accredited Lawyers and Accountants running around there that 'know' tax implications, and various other backgrounds? (from backgrounds like Harvard, Yale, etc etc etc?)
This has been happening since the WHA ask guys like Derek Sandreson. The NHLPA has been talking about it but has done nothing
USA education system does not teach how to manage financials, your money. Families may or may not talk about money.
Poor Chris 😢his wife was spending all his money on fancy dresses and dinner party’s.

I don't watch your Podcast - you don't have one and never will, cause you are too afraid.
From Thu night game Leads vs Caps: When Nylander missed a seemingly easy chance to score up close…a few shifts later his teammate skated up ice and gave a long awesome pass to Nylander..he took a hard shot from a distance and scored. Awesome teamwork..and that’s a sign Leaf’s are winners. A failed moment turned into a memorable one. 🥅🏒🎯🏆✅💙
