When Goalies Were Weird

by Score Media and Gaming

‘When Goalies Were Weird’ is a six-part narrative podcast from theScore about some of the most fascinating characters in NHL history. Host John Matisz profiles unforgettable ‘90s-era goalies by talking to former NHL stars, Hockey Hall of Famers, coaches, broadcasters, and executives. These goalies played when the position was undergoing a revolution in style and substance - the butterfly goalie replaced the stand-up, and equipment got bigger and lighter. The old guard's quirks and the new guard's innovations melded together to produce an era of pure chaos inside and outside the blue paint.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

4.5/5 ONLY because you have Glen Healy admitting to being a bagpiper in the CUJO cast and you don’t have any follow up on it?!?!?🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, though, I’m glad I found this podcast and would have loved more episodes!
