The NHL offseason has us missing hockey... so naturally, we've decided to fix the league ourselves. 😏 This week on Crease and Desist, we're tackling the dreaded offseason blues before settling one very important debate: which NHL goalies have the most swagger?

From rules we'd happily send to the penalty box forever to brand-new ideas that would make the game even more exciting (or completely chaotic), nothing is off-limits. Whether you're counting down the days until puck drop or just looking for some hockey laughs, this episode is packed with hot takes, friendly debates, and plenty of goalie love. 🥅 Which goalie oozes the most swagger? 🚨 Which NHL rules deserve to be benched? 🎉 And what fun new rules would make hockey even better? Join us for another laugh-filled episode of Crease and Desist, where hockey is always the main event—even in the offseason. #NHL #HockeyPodcast #NHLGoalies #GoalieLife #Offseason #IceHockey #SportsPodcast #HockeyFans #CreaseAndDesist #NHLTalk
