| Bonus Episode: Daryl Evans Interview | 23 Mar 2026 | 01:53:40 | |
You can learn a lot about hockey by watching highlights, but you learn even more by listening to someone who’s lived every layer of the game. We’re joined by Daryl Evans, LA Kings radio analyst, lifelong skating teacher, and the man who scored the overtime winner in the Miracle On Manchester. He takes us back to street hockey roots, a first season where he could barely skate, and the power-skating breakthrough that flipped his entire path. We also get practical advice for beginners and adult skaters, including why learning how to fall safely is often the first real skill that unlocks confidence. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 104: Suspension in Anaheim, Playoff Pressure in LA | 16 Mar 2026 | 01:18:16 | |
A single reckless moment can change a season, and the way fans react can change the sport. We start with some quick life updates and a heads-up about next week: there’s no live stream, but we’ve got a special pre-recorded drop coming that you’ll want to hear.

| Episode 103: Ducks / Kings Buy? Sell? Why Not Both! | 09 Mar 2026 | 01:56:04 | |
Trade phones buzzed, goal lights flashed, and SoCal hockey found two different gears. We break down why Anaheim keeps thriving in tight games—powered by elite shootout execution, a surge from Cutter Gauthier and Beckett Sennecke, and a bold blue line swing for John Carlson—while Los Angeles leans into a culture reset: DJ Smith steps behind the bench, Matt Greene joins the staff, and the front office turns aging miles into valuable draft picks and a needed center in Scott Laughton. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Bonus Episode: 2026 Trade Deadline Recap | 08 Mar 2026 | 01:48:15 | |
Trades don’t just move players—they reveal how teams see their window. We dig into a wild NHL trade deadline where bold gambles, clever cap work, and gritty depth bets collided. The headline moves delivered plenty to unpack: Anaheim snagged John Carlson to stabilize a young blue line and supercharge special teams, Colorado reunited with Nazem Kadri to weaponize center depth, and Utah landed MacKenzie Weegar to anchor a defense with real identity. Behind those splashes were the quieter deals that decide spring hockey: Buffalo loading up on size and snarl, Dallas balancing reach with scoring touch, Minnesota stacking veteran blue line help, and Vegas hinting at a future goalie splash by shifting their pipeline. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 102: Ducks Soar, Kings Stink and USA Sweeps Gold! | 02 Mar 2026 | 02:15:39 | |
A golden goal, a louder save, and a flood of emotions that felt like destiny. We open with USA–Canada and live inside the game’s thinnest margins: why Canada’s shot share didn’t matter, how Hellebuyck’s angles and patience turned chaos into order, and the split‑second stick that erased a sure goal. Jack Hughes finishes the script, families hit the ice, and yes, there were tears. We balance the awe with detail—MVP chatter, all‑tournament picks, and the small decisions that win tournaments, from who dresses to who sits. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 101: Panarin in Kings Gear, Ducks Back Skating, USA vs Canada for Gold | 23 Feb 2026 | 01:34:31 | |
Coffee at dawn, hockey at full throttle. We dive into a week where the USA women authored a masterclass in control and composure, capped by Hilary Knight’s last-minute equalizer and Megan Keller’s smooth OT winner over Canada. Aerin Frankel’s poise set the tone, the skaters did the rest, and a new core proved they’re ready to keep the standard high even as a legend bows out. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 100: Olympic Chaos, Kings Injuries, Ducks RFAs & The Ultimate SoCal Super Team | 16 Feb 2026 | 01:39:17 | |
A hundred episodes in, we decided to swing for the fences. We start with a quick pulse check on Los Angeles—Artemi Panarin will wear 72—and the tough news that Kevin Fiala underwent season-ending surgery, then dig into what that means for the Kings’ playoff odds, power-play rotations, and cap flexibility. From there, we zoom out to contract strategy: why a Brandt Clarke long-term deal at a rising cap might age beautifully, and how the Ducks can lock in Leo Carlsson and Cutter Gauthier without choking future space. Bridge deals for developing defense, bigger bets for cornerstone talent—this is where smart teams separate themselves. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 99- Panarin Joins the Kings, Ducks Plot Their Push, Olympic Hockey Arrives! | 09 Feb 2026 | 01:45:23 | |
A quiet week off? Not even close. We came back to a league on tilt: Artemi Panarin chose Los Angeles, signed a buyout-proof two-year deal, and instantly changed how the Kings attack the stretch run. Meanwhile, the Ducks balanced a heartfelt farewell to a beloved superfan with a gritty push to keep a playoff spot, riding big nights from Cutter Gauthier, Mikael Granlund, and Jackson LaCombe while grinding through a maddening shutout loss and a satisfying sweep of Vegas. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 98- LaCombe to Team USA, Goalie Saves, Goalie Goals and Goalie Fight! | 26 Jan 2026 | 01:41:04 | |
A late-night show with early-morning energy: we open with laughs and jump straight into the week’s biggest swings for Ducks and Kings fans. Leo Carlsson’s thigh procedure casts doubt over Sweden’s Olympic plans, Mason McTavish exits late with an upper-body issue, and Jackson Lacombe earns a deserved call to Team USA thanks to smart role-for-role roster thinking. On the Kings side, trade watch heats up with Connor Garland and Evander Kane rumors, while Brandt Clark finds his groove and Quinton Byfield gets a firm challenge to drive play like a second-overall pick. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 97- Ducks and Kings Breakdown: OT Drama & Trade Rumors | 19 Jan 2026 | 01:48:39 | |
The Freeway Faceoff delivered everything we love about SoCal hockey: pace, pushback, and a shootout finish that felt like a high-wire act. We break down how Mason McTavish turned patience into a hammer, how Beckett Sennecke’s hands changed the angle, and why Brandt Clarke’s confidence matters late. From tight 5-on-5 details to the psychology of slowing a goalie’s read, we unpack the moments that swung a rivalry game. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 96: Kings Banged Up, Ducks Spiraling, and Utah Goes Outdoor | 12 Jan 2026 | 01:45:30 | |
A brutal stretch for SoCal hockey turns into a candid therapy session and a scouting report rolled into one. We open with the Ducks’ eight-game slide and the growing nerves around Cutter Gauthier’s extension, then challenge the logic of chasing the wrong trade targets while scratching one of the few consistent forwards in Ryan Strome. Waivers for Nikita Nesterenko and a goalie shuffle with Mrazek to IR and Husso back up only added to the churn. The pattern is clear: Anaheim often strikes first, then drifts, and a fragile middle frame buries them. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 95- Ducks Are Sinking, Kings Get Kuemper Olympic Rosters Revealed! | 05 Jan 2026 | 01:44:56 | |
A rivalry rout, a painful pattern, and a few bright sparks set the stage for one of our most candid shows yet. We open on the Kings’ 6–1 statement over the Ducks and the Sharks’ five-goals-on-13-shots stunner, then rewind the tape to ask why Anaheim keeps spotting teams the first goal and how that habit wrecks structure, special teams, and momentum. On the other side, we talk through the Kings’ identity tug-of-war: a reliable defensive base that still needs more bite on the power play and a stronger finishing mindset from their big bodies and young skill. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 94: World Juniors Kick Off, Ducks Eye Trades & Kings Lose Bergevin to Buffalo | 29 Dec 2025 | 01:17:36 | |
Southern California hockey brought big feelings this week: a front-office shakeup in LA, trade buzz in Anaheim, and a pair of games that showed how special teams and shot quality can flip a scoreboard. We start with community—holiday check-ins, shoutouts, and a push to hit our subscriber goal—then head straight into the real changes. Marc Bergevin heads to Buffalo for a bigger role, while Jim Hiller steps into direct power play control. It’s overdue, and the timing says it all: the Kings can’t keep living on one or two goals and expect deep spring hockey. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| ’Twas the Night Before Christmas — Royally Quacked Edition | 25 Dec 2025 | 00:04:21 | |
’Twas the Night Before Christmas — Royally Quacked Edition A Ducks vs. Kings Holiday Tale ’Twas the night before Christmas across Southern CA, Where two hockey worlds lived just a freeway away. The bright lights of Los Angeles shimmered with pride, While Orange County glowed softly with coastline beside. The sweaters were hung in the locker rooms with care, In hopes that a rivalry showdown soon would be there. The Ducks were nestled in Anaheim, snug in their beds, While visions of breakaways danced in their heads. Carlsson with his mitts, and Dostal in net, Dreamed of highlight‑reel moments they hadn’t pulled off yet. McTavish was ready, his shot sharp and true, Terry imagined the magic he’d soon skate into. Mintyukov and Zellweger, blue‑line youth on the rise, Brought speed and creativity that dazzled the eyes. Gauthier’s fierce stride, Gudas’s tough tone, And LaCombe, steady‑skating in a style of his own. All guided by Coach Q, with his confident plan, Shaping a Ducks squad with belief in each man. Up north in L.A., the Kings rested too, Plotting crisp zone entries and a forecheck or two. Kopitar’s leadership, Byfield’s long stride, And Clarke’s booming slapshot filled them with pride. Kempe dreamed of snipes, Fiala of flair, While Kuemper stood ready with a calm, steady stare. Moore brought the hustle, Turcotte brought the speed, And Anderson defended with toughness the Kings always need. All sharpened by Coach Jim Hiller’s guiding mind, Steering the Kings toward the goals they’d designed. When out on the ice there arose such a clatter, Both teams hit the rink to see what was the matter. The Zamboni lights glowed, the arena hummed low, And two familiar figures glided out in the snow. It was Bailey, mane flowing, with a mischievous grin, Strutting to center ice like he knew he would win. And Wild Wing, descending from the rafters on a zip line so clean, Landing in style like the star of the scene. Together they hollered with unfiltered delight, “Royally Quacked fans, gather ’round for the night!” They spoke of a season both fierce and electric, Of overtime thrillers and goals so poetic. Of Ducks youth ris -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 93: The Return, The Injury, The Trade and Christmas Wishes! | 22 Dec 2025 | 01:33:06 | |
Hockey rarely grants tidy weeks, and this one came wrapped in chaos. We kick off with festive energy and a spotlight on creators keeping SoCal fans informed before diving straight into the turbulence: Anaheim’s goalie shuffle as Petr Mrazek returns and Lukas Dostal reclaims the net, Leo Carlson’s tear that evokes Teemu-era memories, and a hard-but-fair fine for Frank Vatrano after a dust-up with Jason Robertson. Then we celebrate a franchise voice—Steve Carroll’s 2,000th Ducks call—because some milestones deserve a loud cheer. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 92- Clutch Ducks, Scoring Kings and a Wild Trade! | 15 Dec 2025 | 01:30:42 | |
A shorthanded equalizer with 0.1 on the clock, a 6–0 shutout, and a tripping call on a goalie that flipped a finish—this week had everything. We dive into the Ducks’ offensive burst behind Leo Carlsson, Beckett Sennecke, and Troy Terry, plus Lukáš Dostál’s return and the delicate waiver dance with Ville Husso. On the other side, the Kings finally uncorked goals against Chicago and leaned on Brandt Clarke’s surge from the blue line, only to see late-game whistles cloud a gritty trip to Seattle. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

| Episode 90- Freeway Face Off, Perry s Return & Thankful Thanksgiving | 01 Dec 2025 | 01:46:25 | |
The Pacific Division just got spicy again. A chaotic Orange Friday shootout, an OT heist against Vegas, and a razor-thin loss to Vancouver set the stage for a week where identity and execution mattered on every shift. We break down why Anaheim suddenly scores in waves—Leo Carlsson threading passes, Jackson Lacombe and Olen Zellweger jumping into lanes, and Cutter Gauthier punishing turnovers—and how Troy Terry and Chris Kreider are reshaping the power play into a real threat. With Lukáš Dostál sidelined, we dig into Ville Husso’s timely composure, Petr Mrazek’s steadiness, and the quiet fingerprints of goalie coach Peter Budaj on every key save. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.

We get into why that number and term make sense relative to his two-way value, how the no-move and no-trade protections frame the next era, and what it signals about retool talk. Then the plot twists: Doughty’s toe puts Brant Clarke center stage, the defensive metrics trend up, but timely finishing and special teams decide three razor-thin results. -Links to all our socials and where to find the podcast: https://linktr.ee/royallyquacked Iron+Steel Threads: Use code RQ10 to save 10% on your order.
