We interviewed Jazmine Miley - pro hockey player and coach and founder of the Hockey Players of Color Movement ("HPOC") - right before she went to Finland to join her hockey team. She explains how she got her start in hockey at age 13(!), but despite her late start (by traditional standards) in the game became an elite defender, played collegiately…

We're a little late posting this one, so much has transpired since we recorded it. The NHL is back and so are we...after a long break. Hear about 1/2 of our grand return to the ice. Other topics include what's happening on the women's hockey front, including the NWHL and PWHPA landscape, the overlooked truth that women's hockey came back before the…

We recorded this last Friday. Honestly, we don't care if anyone listens nor do we expect anyone to listen. We're putting it out here because it exists. It covers some women's hockey and discusses the NHL's return to play. We also devote a significant amount of time to discussing hockey culture, racism in hockey, and the murder of George Floyd. The …

We interviewed 2-time Olympic gold medalist, 1-time Olympic silver medalist, and 2-time comeback boss Meaghan Mikkelson!! She talked about her beginnings in hockey, that intimidating style of play, her path to the Canadian National Women's Hockey Team, and the grueling road to the Olympics. Hint: we don't know the half of what it takes to train to …

Well...The hockey world has ground to a halt, but we still had PLENTY to talk about: our own hockey shenanigans, including Mary's grand return to the ice. There's all the things that happened when hockey still existed: Caps and Pens trade deadline moves, the Isobel Cup playoffs, PWHPA action, and a lookback now that women's hockey has pretty much c…

We memorialize our first birthday . . . and other things and look back at our first year of existence. We also discuss Mary's return to the ice. In women's hockey, we revisit the Buffalo Believes Classic & that thing (or four) that happened in the third period, THE WHALE'S FIRST WIN, Denna Day & the NWHL's mid-season signings. We also discuss that …

This episode is very late and very full of tangents, but hopefully they're the funny kind? Anyways, we got caught up in the holiday rush and recorded this before the holidays but didn't get around to posting it. But it's of course, still worth a listen! Do endearing stories about Flower ever get old? Hear about Leah's hockey nemesis and about Mary'…

This is the mother of all episodes because it's our first non-interview episode since Mary's return from maternity leave! And because it's our longest episode yet because we had lots to catch up on. In addition to talking about our own hockey shenanigans, we talk about women's hockey, including the Team USA/Canada training camp in Pittsburgh & thos…

We had the privilege of interviewing Rhonda Leeman Taylor, who recently released Offside, a memoir of her experiences as a trailblazing woman in hockey. Not only did she play hockey back when very few women were doing it, her work influenced women's hockey worldwide and shaped women's and girl's hockey in Canada. She was the first woman to sit on t…

This episode is vintage due to our summer break and the interviews we conducted. Anyways, ever been mad at your best friend? That's our relationship with hockey right now. We talk about things from the hockey men we have to deal with to our former fave Auston Matthews. We also provide our impressions of the first few games of the Caps and Pens seas…

We sat down with Anya Packer for a wide-ranging interview that covered everything from her beginnings in hockey all the way to playing in NWHL's inaugural game and her retirement and transition into her current role. She previewed the season: who's gonna win it all, players to watch & what each team has going for it this year. She also gave some in…

Welcome to Season 2! We've been unbenched (kinda), and talk about being back on the ice and "coaching." We live our best lives thriving on petty NHL drama and marketing foibles. Also hear confessions from the resident Caps fan about Sid the Kid. In women's hockey, we discuss For Framtiden (For the Future), the Swedish women's hockey team boycott, d…

We interviewed Mel Desrochers, a defender for Les Canadiennes de Montreal of the CWHL and member of the PWPHA. Not only did we talk about the future of pro women's hockey, but her path to becoming an elite player, from her first experiences playing all the way to the Clarkson Cup final. Warning: leg hair was mentioned.. .…

Our longest episode yet. Even though this is a hockey podcast, we talk about the USWNT World Cup victory, and then get into sad off-season moves: that Kessel trade, the newest Penguin with a 6-year (screams) contract, and the departure of Brett Connolly. In other random NHL news, we discuss the Lisa McLeod-ing of Eugene Melnyk and the brazen Breadm…

We were wrong, much to Mary's chagrin! About Phil Kessel getting traded. Which happened the day after we recorded, so will be covered in our next episode. In other NHL news, we talk about the Burakovsky trade, Athletic's shit-stirring AGAIN with all of those Pens rumors and about that Kadri article, the NHL Awards & the draft. In women's hockey new…

We provide too much information about why we're both benched from hockey. We also cover the Stanley Cup final which FINALLY concluded and that post-season injury list. We also discuss the first major off-season trade to affect one of our teams and the death of those baseless Pens trade rumors. And last but definitely not least, we discuss what's go…

We had the privilege of sitting down with Jeff Boyd, who has been involved with the Beauts from day one and has been the team's play-by-play announcer since the second season. Hear what it's like to do play-by-play and what goes into putting a broadcast together. Jeff also talks about some of his most memorable times with the Beauts and the NWHL, i…

Hear about Leah's season ending injury in excruciating(ly) funny(?) detail and how Mary dutifully carried out her hockey wife responsibilities. We also talk about the NHL playoffs, which are kinda dead to us for obvious reasons and complain about all of the people whining about officiating. We'd be whining if our teams were in, but now we can just …

We had the privilege of talking to Tammi Lynch, who founded Players Against Hate. Its mission is "to increase awareness and stop racism and name-calling by youth athletes, their teams and coaches, their families, and spectators," and was founded in response to racist taunts targeted at Divyne Apollon II, one of her son's teammates. Because of her w…

We're back after a long hiatus! Stupid weddings. So much happened: Women's Worlds, the NHL playoffs, and more fallout from the CWHL's closing. We've got some firsthand information about Women's Worlds from someone who was there! Also included in this bottle of Yikes Hard Lemonade are our takes on the not so great fates of the Caps & Pens, the CWHL …

Before we dive into the madness that is playoffs, here (at long last) is our interview with Maryland Black Bears front office staff. We talk with Black Bears President Robyn Remick and Director of Game Day Operations Kristine Perry, about their background in hockey, the Black Bears’ inaugural season, and how we can get more women involved in the ho…

A thing happened last Sunday. The CWHL dissolved, breaking our women's hockey loving hearts. And then lots of shit went down in the following week. We give our reactions to all that has happened, bring you up to date on where things stand, explain why there's bad blood between the NWHL & CWHL, talk about the future of women's hockey, and give our t…

We recorded this right before the news broke about the CWHL folding. So here's a flashback to when things were better. We talk about Leah's four hours of hockey for charity. In NHL news, we discuss our many feelings about the Caps visit to the White House (spoiler, we hated it), MacKinnon & Tavares in the shootout, and that NHLPA poll. And saving t…

We talk about the epic Caps/Pens showdown. And our darling stepchild Leafs: the awesome Leafs fans we know and that disallowed goal, i.e., that cheating Delia. The NHL investigation of the slur that really wasn't: a lawyerly take & the disappointment of uninquisitive journalists. The NWHL & CWHL playoffs. And why is everyone beating up each other a…

We should probably apologize for our first story? #sorrynotsorry In this episode we discuss some potential rule changes (don’t worry, we manage to make that dirty too), geek out over the women’s playoffs, rate Holtby’s facial hair, and discuss the appropriate use of the hockey is for everyone hashtag.…

This week we talk about playing like garbage (both on the personal level and on the NHL side), hockey continues to hate one of us, the trade deadline is a (bad) thing that happened, and the CWHL is fighting over us. We’re super popular, folks.By Saucy Rockets

In this week’s episode we eat our feelings and vent about how hockey’s done us wrong. Featuring: a whole lot of (deserved) suckage from the Penguins, the Capitals may as well change their tagline to ALLTRADES, one of us goes to the final Rivalry Series game, we deal with more mansplaining, and the Caps liked it enough to put a ring on it (“it” bein…

This week, we talk about what happened when one of your co-hosts drank a bottle of wine before our game. Most importantly, we talked about the NWHL Allstar Game & Skills Comp, the Rivalry Series. Least importantly, we talked about the latest shenanigans in the NHL.By Saucy Rockets

Sometimes being a woman who plays hockey means you deal with bachelorette party planning on the bench. Sometimes it means you have rage blackouts on the ice. Sometimes one leads to the other! Either way, it's a good time. Also we talk about William Nylander and that whole contract standoff.By Saucy Rockets

Guys, we don't want you to let us have the puck, okay? We'll take it from you ourselves just fine. This week we discuss the Capitals and their ride on the struggle bus and declare Mikko Koskinen our new hero.By Saucy Rockets

NHL All Star Weekend! We spent the weekend in San Jose stalking Gritty, fangirling over Kendall Coyne and Brianna Decker, and debating conspiracy theories involving Nathan MacKinnon and Sidney Crosby.By Saucy Rockets

AKA sloppy seconds: Or that time our recorder stopped doing its job 15 minutes into an episode and we got to record it twice! This week we talk about mansplaining and boob-grabbing on the bench, and how we don't actually appreciate either of those two things. One of us also has lots of (angry) feelings about the Penguins' goalie situation, we find …

Welcome to the Saucy Rockets Podcast! We're women, players, coaches, and fans, and man do we have a lot of opinions about hockey. In this episode we talk about Columbus Blue Jackets' Sergei Bobrovsky and his mantrum, That Time Austin Watson Got Punched In The Face And We Liked It, and a whole lot of other nonsense.…
