Ice Is Slippery – Details, episodes & analysis

This week on Ice is Slippery, the Colorado Avalanche have written a compelling hockey narrative with the return of Gabe Landeskog and Kate has concerns for her beloved Dallas Stars. Fred? He's just nodding and smiling. We're also sending some non-playoff teams to summer camp for a little enrichment. Why do the Boston Bruins need music therapy camp? Listen to find out!         

This week on Ice is Slippery, we watched hockey history as Alexander Ovechkin broke Wayne Gretzky's goal scoring record. The Dallas Stars are ADHD icons, but they're starting to reaching the finding out portion of FAFO. Also, we cast NHL players as highly-specific Great British Baking Show contestant archetypes. 

This week on Ice is Slippery, Kate and Fred talk about trade news around the NHL (particularly changes that affected the Stars and the Flyers). We also talked about this week's funniest/pettiest NHL moment, and remembered why Vegas is so villainous.   Note: This week we also recorded an episode with Over the Glass hockey podcast! They're LGBTQ+ Sharks fans talking all things hockey, fan culture, and good vibes. Find them here (https://overtheglasshockey.wordpress.com/) and be on the lookout for our episode, coming out soon! 

Kate is recovering from dental surgery but she's DOING HER BEST, OKAY? Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin are becoming dads together (but not like, TOGETHER), Lian Bichsel is back, and have you heard Robo is on a heater? Finally, Fred would just like everyone to shut up.

This week on Ice is Slippery, we talk about conflicts in hockey both on and off the ice. The NHL is trying to do a heckin' capitalism on YouTube content creators, Fred's a little burned out on sports, but Kate is more excited about hockey than ever after attending the Stars-Avs game (let's not talk about the final score though). 

This week on Ice is Slippery, Kate is feeling pretty positive about the Stars as long as we ignore the first 12 minutes of the Rangers game! In other news, the Flyers crushed the Ducks in Philly, and now Cutter Gauthier is just somebody that we used to know. 

This week on Ice is Slippery, Kate has overcome her fear of Sharks as long as they come from San Jose and Joe Pavelski should consider a post-hockey career as a hair model. We also discuss hockey player archetypes and identify a major missing piece for the Dallas Stars. 

This week on Ice is Slippery, we catch up on some news and games from the shortened holiday week and make New Year's resolutions on behalf of some NHL teams and players. Kate would also like people to please stop breaking Mason Marchment's face. 

This week on Ice is Slippery, we make some important scientific discoveries and desperately look for something special about the Dallas Stars special teams. We're also happy our ex Scott Wedgewood is living his best life, but we wish we hadn't been foolish enough to let him go. 

This week on Ice is Slippery, it's a Lian Bichsel lovefest! We talk about the Dallas Stars defenseman's NHL debut, take a spin on the Colorado Avalanche goalie carousel, and feel vindicated in our admiration of Scott Laughton. We also add the San Jose Sharks to our holiday playlist and give some rare praise to the NHL marketing team.
