The Hockey Show - Episode Twenty-One

The Hockey Show is proud to present a fellow blogger to the show today as we welcome Jeff Barak from the Third String Goalie site to the show! Jeff does great work in finding old hockey jerseys and stories and posting them on his site where he imparts some incredible information about the person who wore the sweater or was responsible for some major revelation in hockey history. Needless to say, Third String Goalie is a favorite site of mine, and I stop by quite regularly to see what Jeff has found.

One of the best things about knowing Jeff is his passion for the game of hockey itself. He lives in Minnesota, meaning he lives, eats, breathes, and sleeps hockey. He's a passionate Minnesota Wild fan. He loves watching the NCAA's Golden Gophers dismantle the rest of collegiate hockey. His knowledge and love of hockey history is phenomenal, and I am happy to call him a friend. In short, Jeff is a die-hard hockey fan, and I believe that will show in the interview tonight. The man knows his puck.

We'll be talking to Jeff about the NHL, the loss of the North Stars, the rise of the Dallas Stars as Stanley Cup champions, the return of NHL hockey to Minnesota in the Wild, Gopher hockey and a possible run in the Frozen Four this season, and, of course, hockey sweaters. If you have questions you'd like to ask Jeff, I encourage you to tweet them to me at @TeebzHBIC or email them in at HockeyShowUMFM@shaw.ca. We're going to squeeze as many questions into our half hour as possible, so join us tonight at 6PM on 101.5 UMFM to hear Jeff Barak of the Third String Goalie site give us the low-down on his view of the hockey world!

Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!
