What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I never miss this Podcast and it is the best place to get all the information on the NHL. If you love hockey then this is a must listen twice a week.

steelerbhk · Aug 2026

I look forward to each & every episode. This show essential listening for all hockey fans everywhere! It’s fun and honest. The reporting & conversations are great but the chemistry between Elliotte & Kyle is what really makes this show tick. The guys are so much fun to listen to, I’d listen even if the “pod” was about Raccoons, “erect nipples”or something else I might not normally consider of interest in a hockey podcast. Keep the hits coming guys & “Let’s Go Islanders!”

Gertrude da Goat · Feb 2026

Appreciate Elliotte’s insider info, however rest of the podcast has gone downhill. Editing is terrible - at least once a podcast we hear Elliotte repeat a point (which I’m sure is due to multiple takes of the same point being missed/left in). Nothing against Kyle as an individual, but he doesn’t bring anything extra to the podcast. Jeff brought a lot of hockey history and out there ideas which contributed to the entertainment factor, whereas nothing would be lost if Elliotte was doing this solo. Hoping they figure things out or I may look elsewhere for my hockey news.

Hands down best Hockey pod…Will miss Jeff a ton. But excited this show is back. Must listen for serious hockey fans

MackT94 · Sep 2024

I enjoy this show for the unique insight into the goings-on around the NHL, but putting out this episode without any mention of Mitchell Miller is absurd. Even if it didn’t come up in the interview, it should have been mentioned in the pre-recorded insert. That is the story in the league right now, and it reminds me of this show’s hesitation to discuss Kyle Beach during that time last year. Do better.

RobbWalk · Nov 2022

Show has declined in recent years. Kyle is just okay, but he such a sycophant for Elliotte. Dom is a below average producer who can’t seem to figure out how to cut the dead air. I miss the actual banter and especially (!) the lack of outro songs from the Amil days. I mostly listened for the hockey insider news, but the show has become so bland I had to jump ship.
