Pronger, held me on his lap at age 4 in Cleveland Ohio. I was the youngest player in their hockey camp to ever play. Between the years with Pronger being a celebrity coach & the Harkins brothers, running those camps, I am so grateful My brother almost went pro at 16, after USA Selects & I was a late bloomer at age 22. God, doesn’t make mistakes.. injuries kept us from the Show, but you and Harkins gave us training we will never forget. Thank you Chris.

Get you somebody that looks at you like Whitney looks at Pronger

Imagine if Mcdavid had a defender like pronger on his back end..

How good of a guy is Pronger. Not just thought-through answers to absolutely everything but even when talking and wrapped up in a story he makes sure to make eye contact with the guy who asked it. I know he's media trained but still. All these podcasts just make me appreciate everyone so much more once you get to know what they're like off the ice too. Killer interview and a pure beast on the ice. Grant Fuhr (and Sean Burke just as much of a favorite) used to be my heroes back when I was a young goalie so hearing these stories and how he threw a little shade to the replacement goalies that season after Fuhr got injured in St. Louis was on point and I hadn't thought of that in forever, haha. You guys put out some great content.

You guys are the only reason I’m making it through quarantine right now! Thanks for such awesome interviews!

30min to 52min is all on Edmonton Oilers. Best part in the whole podcast. Well done boys. Edit: had to watch that series again. Wow Edmonton was very exciting. There fans are amazing. It will be nice if they make playoffs again. Hockey is just better with Edmonton in playoffs. As an outsider, by far one of best fans and organizations. So much history.

Easily one of the best defenseman my eyes have ever watched. I would stay up late (on the east coast) to watch him and Niedermeyer play in Anaheim. Maybe the tough love from Keene early on molded him into a legendary player!

Without a doubt, one of the best defenseman of the last 25 years. Also, seems like a good dude to be buddies with.
