EPISODE 159 – RALLSAUCE & DEEDS

The boys are back, and there’s plenty to get into!

Tampa Bay might have a bigger problem than a power-play drought, with Nikita Kucherov reportedly saying he won’t be re-signing when his contract is up. Meanwhile, things aren’t looking much better in Detroit, with Dylan Larkin done playing and sitting out until his trade situation gets sorted.

We also get into Halloween night plans, what RallSauce and Deeds are getting up to once the costumes go on, and whether Toronto’s most fashionable gangsters are going to behave themselves.

To wrap things up, we’re making our Saturday Night Picks and putting our hockey knowledge and possibly our reputations on the line.

Hockey drama, Halloween plans and a few questionable predictions. Just another Saturday with RallSauce & Deeds.

🎙️ Between the Benches with RallSauce — Episode 158 featuring Justin Mulligan

Beauty’s and Rockstars, we’ve got a good one for you! Justin Mulligan joins us for a conversation covering everything from morning workouts to private flights with the boys.

Justin shares the story of crossing one off the bucket list with a trip to a Playboy Mansion party, and we chat about the upcoming Motionball charity event and giving back.

But behind the lifestyle, Justin’s all about family. From matching outfits with his son to being an amazing husband and setting the right example as a father, he’s showing what it’s all about when the cameras are off.

Good stories, a few laughs, and a look at the man behind the lifestyle. This one’s got a bit of everything.

Episode 158 with Justin Mulligan is out now!

EPISODE 157 – PETER & TAYLOR BUDAJ 🏒🔥

Presented by COOL Blonde Lager 🍺

Beauties and Rockstars, we’ve got a first for Between the Benches! Our first-ever husband and wife duo, Peter and Taylor Budaj.

Peter takes us through his road to the NHL, from being a European draft pick to playing OHL hockey in Toronto, making his NHL debut, and sharing the room with some absolute legends between the pipes: Patrick Roy, Carey Price and Jonathan Quick. He also gives us some stories from his days in Colorado and what it was like playing in Montreal.

But Taylor’s got her own all-star stories. She takes us back to her first NHL game… three years after Peter’s debut, and what life was really like inside the wives’ club.

We get into moving 13 different times, new teams, new schools, and raising two AAA hockey boys while following the hockey life across the country. Philly became home base because it put Peter in a good spot to see the boys when he was travelling on the road.

And then there’s their first date. Peter was ignoring Taylor, so she grabbed his phone and put her number in herself. THAT’S an all-star move right there!

One’s an NHL goalie who played with legends. The other’s a hockey mom who’s been navigating the chaos of hockey life for years. Different roles, same team, and making the distance work one season at a time.

This one’s got hockey stories, family life, laughs and a whole lot of realness.

🎙️ Episode 157 is live!

What’s going on Beauties and Rockstars!

RallSauce and Deeds are back between the benches for another Saturday recap, breaking down Saturday night’s games, catching up on what’s been happening, and looking ahead at some upcoming guests we’ve got lined up.

We also got into the important stuff… apparently it’s prime time for squirrels to be running around collecting their last-minute acorns before winter hits. If you thought NHL GMs were making moves before the deadline, you should see these little guys scrambling to get their pantry stocked.

Hockey, laughs, upcoming guests, and a couple of beauties behind the mic. Just another Saturday with RallSauce and Deeds.

Crack a cold one, sit back, and enjoy Episode 156

EPISODE 154 — KURTIS GABRIEL BETWEEN THE BENCHES WITH RALLSAUCE

We kick things off with a Toronto Maple Leafs update after the boys take down the San Jose Sharks at home! Gavin McKenna shows off those soft hands in tight, burying the game-winner.

COOL BLONDE LAGER PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Auston Matthews! He’s putting up points, sitting at 16 points, and showing great leadership while helping bring McKenna along.

Then we sit down with Kurtis Gabriel and what a story this guy has.

From battling his way into the NHL to playing with the Minnesota Wild, New Jersey Devils and San Jose Sharks, Kurtis made it clear that nothing was going to stop him from reaching his dream. He fought for every opportunity and left everything out there.

Unfortunately, a hand injury ultimately brought his playing career to an end. But that wasn’t the end of his story.

Kurtis opens up about life after hockey, the tough times he faced in retirement, and how he’s turning those experiences into something positive by helping other athletes and people who need support.

Through Locker Room Talk, he’s using what he’s learned to help others navigate life, find direction and realize they’re not alone.

This is a great conversation about hockey, adversity, identity and finding your purpose when the game you’ve dedicated your life to comes to an end.
