Episode 4

S1E4: Round 1 Roundup, Hockey Jargon, and Paul Kariya

In today's episode we catch up with our Asians in the playoffs!

I thought it might be helpful to provide a little bit of a glossary for hockey jargon, so in the second period, I read out definitions for some of the more unusual terms. What are some terms you want defined? Let me know on social media!

I also give a list of some of my favorite hockey movies and documentaries. What about you? What are your favorite hockey movies? Should I do some hockey movie reviews over the summer? Send me your thoughts at asiansinhockey@gmail.com.

In the third period, we delve into the career of the legendary captain of the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim: Paul Tetsuhiko Kariya.
