This episode is another journey in our Hearing History series, taking full advantage of the podcast format by exploring local history through sound. Today’s sound is the slap shot, a powerful hockey shot heard for a century on the streets, frozen ponds, and in the arenas of St. Catharines. This episode tracks the history of the slap shot, but also explores the story hockey in St. Catharines. From early community play, to the Garden City Arena, to Stan Mikita and the St. Catharines Teepees, this city has been on the power play for generations!
