Period One
Pope Passes Away

Chelmsford Cech In
Former Guildford Phoenix, and er… Arsenal and Chelsea net minder/goalie Petr Cech steps up a league and moves to Chelmsford Chieftains.
EIHA’s Spordle Debacle Gets Worse
After last podcasts discussion around the seeming mis-management and delay in bringing on board a new game management system, it now appears that all is not well, or as transparent as previously believed.
Some excellent work HERE by Anthony at Banners On The Wall.
Penalty Box
Ruddy (MAN) & Critchlow (MAN) both fined for altercations v Sheffield.
DeLuca (MAN) 1 Game Suspension + Fine for Spearing.

Miller No Longer a Bruin
The much-discussed signing of Mitchell Miller by Boston is off – although the player will be sent to their AHL affiliate, but it’s unclear if he will be eligible to play their either.
Ottowa Deadpools??
You heard us. Ryan Reynolds is interested in bidding for the ‘for sale’ NHL franchise!
We demand a logo change!
Period Three - (Nockey News)
Caps Come Home to Murrayfield, But Check Out The BAR!
If, like us you’ve ever stepped foot in Murrayfield Ice Arena – you’ll know how big a deal this is!
Boomerang Corner Spread The Word
This past weekend in Belfast, the good people of BC spread a positive message of support for anyone who’s ever struggled with their mental health, like many of us do from time to time.
Their meagre is an important one, and like they said – In The Land Of The Giants, It’s Not Weak To Speak.
WHAT A NIGHT AND RESULT!
Know what else is amazing?
1,500 Mental Health Awareness leaflets handed out to both the Teal Army and away fans.
MASSIVE thank you to the org, charities & everyone for the support throughout.
