In episode 148, host Sarah Avampato (Line to the Throne) looks at the career and accomplishments of former Los Angeles Kings forward Tony Granato, who will be inducted into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. Then things take a turn towards the serious as we look at the hockey history that's lost by having historical games be largely inaccessible to new fans. And a listener pointed out that New York Islanders defenseman and former Kings prospect Thomas Hickey is, in fact, in the bubble, which sends us all on a spiral down that 2007 NHL Draft and Hickey's inability to catch on in LA.
