Kristina is still learning how to use the NHL app (progress is… questionable), we’re still struggling to stay on topic (sorry, Barb), and we couldn’t be happier because hockey season is officially back!

We’re breaking down the opening games across the league, sharing our first impressions, early hot takes, and a few questionable predictions. Kristina also announces her dream interview with Logan Thompson’s parents because if she ever got to talk to the big man himself, she’d probably just sit there in stunned silence.

The energy is high, the chaos is real, and the obsession is back in full force. Let’s dive in because it’s hockey season again!

This week on Rock The Roar, we’re diving into final rosters and all the chaos brewing in the Metropolitan Division. It’s officially Kristina’s turn to absolutely butcher players’ names, while Candace begs her to stop calling Brock Faber “Nerd Alert” before legal action becomes a real possibility. Plus, Kristina might be a little too thrilled about her new phrase “NHL Debuties.” Hockey season is finally here! It’s October, the games are on, and we’re ready to roar.

Disclaimer: Kristina knows how to pronounce Jonathan Toews’ last name, but she just refuses to, because it’s dumb.

This week on Rock the Roar, Kristina and Candace take a deep dive into the world of Nepo Babies in Hockey, the last names that just keep popping up, the Hughes brother dynasty that’s poised to take over the league, and our tips to keep track of which sibling is which on the ice. We also recap the first half of the Washington Capitals preseason, complete with hot takes, emotional whiplash, and our “dinner” with Clay… where we definitely didn’t overreact. (Okay, maybe just a smidge and Kristina might've literally thrown her phone at one point.) It’s chaos, laughter, and no seriousness whatsoever ever, but that’s just another week at Rock the Roar! Disclaimer: No brothers, phones, or Clays were harmed in the making of this episode. Listener discretion is advised if you’ve ever sat next to a very famous hockey goalie in an empty dinning room and tried not to lose your shit.
