Friends and Rivals Podcast

It's the 30th episode of FRIENDS AND RIVALS! What do we think of when we think of the number 30? Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur! What do we think of when we think of Martin Broduer? Divorcing one sister so that you can marry the other! Friends and Rivals is a family affair, so grab your wife and your sister-in-law, especially if they are two different people, and tune in! We got everything you need to know in round 3 of these NHL playoffs. What nonsensical double standard is keeping Mathew Barzal from getting suspended for making a pinata out of his opponent's head? How do the Islanders move on from an 8-0 game 5 loss? Is Marc-Andre Fleury blowing the semi-finals for Vegas? And of course, the Rangers can't go one week without trying to make it all about them. They hired a coach. Whoopty-do. See you on the unemployment line in 2-3 seasons Gerard. We also finish part 2 of the worst game ever played which I hate, hate, HATE, and no, it's not because I got one out of 14 correct, when even if I guessed I should have gotten at least 25% correct because it's multiple choice! Although, I did have one write-in vote, which doesn't seem smart, in retrospect. There's a lot we need to cover is what I'm sayin', so tune in to FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 30 RIGHT....NOW!!!!

It's Episode 32 of FRIENDS AND RIVALS and this is your one-stop shop for everything tangentially related to the NHL! You have made us your trusted source for hockey news in our inaugural 2020-21 NHL season coverage, and why WOULDN'T you? The season is over; Tampa has won the Stanley Cup, and in this episode you will hear about making preparations for hurricanes in western Florida, the fascinating geysers of Yellowstone National Park, trolling your own children, joke-time with Steve, and a special segment about grill care. What other NHL show will do that for you? Certainly not all of those "successful" NHL podcasts. Chiclets, shmiclets. You know where it's at. It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 32! And we DO bring up the Lightning vs Canadiens by the way.

It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 28 and it's as holy as it gets! Nick's New York Saints are one game away sending the whining Boston Bruins home for the summer and lining up their semi-final matchup against the Lightning. We talk about what we learned from the expansion drafts of the past, and who we want to see our teams protect when the Kraken come knockin'. Play along with Trivia with Bill to test your geographical knowledge north of the border; it's Tom's new favorite segment! Steve asks "How many Hughes does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a Devils tootsie pop?" Can I have a taste of your ICE CREAM?! It's the blessed 28th episode of Friends and Rivals, and it's a real SLAPSHOT!

Its FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 27! The number 27 is significant to all of us at Friends and Rivals, as we remember the greatest player ever to wear number 27 on the New Jersey Devils. Of course we are talking about the one and only Mike Mottau, who also played for the Rangers and Islanders! That number now hangs from the rafters of the Prudential Center. In today's episode, our number 1 fan joins us, Nick tells us why he's the last man standing, Steve ends the Maple Leafs' season, Tom tells us something we didn't know about the Dallas Cowboys (mostly because it's completely untrue), and Bill puts his trust in Ron Hextall (god help him). It's a real Slapshot! That's our Mottau, for Episode 27 of FRIENDS AND RIVALS!

Beware if you are a smallish NHL player just trying to do your day to day errands! Tom will find you...Nick's Islanders are still riding the lightning, and he does 7 impressions for the price of one! The Devils' document their love affair with rival Mark Messier, which has Steve and all Devils fans super-excited. Billy doesn't bother the former NHL star that HE saw last weekend, which Tom cannot understand. This episode is so classy, you can play it loud and proud even when you are staying in the Guy Lafleur suite! It's EPISODE 29 of FRIENDS AND RIVALS, now go! Mind your own business!
