Originally from North Battleford SK. Greg was undrafted but found a way onto the Red Deer Rebels. He spent 3 seasons there putting up back to back seasons of 90+ points. After his junior career he travels from Quebec of the IHL to South Carolina, Colorado & Pee Dee of the ECHL. He won a Kelly Cup while with South Carolina and talks of the journey & shenanigans that happen in life in the minor leagues. He finally spent 8 years playing in Germany where both of his kids ended up starting school & playing their sports. FInally he gives a lot of credit to his wife Sarah who all through his journey was by his side. Pretty cool story. Thanks again Greg.

This was a very cool episode. Darryl played for the Lloydminster Lancers back in the 80's when they were still apart of the SJHL. While with the Lancers he posted a franchise record 121 points in a single season. He played 4 years NCAA Division 1 with the Northern Michigan Wildcats where he would win a national championship. He spent 6 years with the Seattle Thunderbirds of the WHL 2 as an assistant coach & 4 more as the head scout. Since then he has spent 22 years in the NHL scouting: 8 with the Buffalo Sabres, 2 with the Pittsburgh Penguins & currently in his 12th year with the Tampa Bay lightning.

He spent time with the Saskatoon Blades, Swift Current Broncos & finally the Moose Jaw Warriors in the WHL. With Moose Jaw he set a team record with 70 goals in 71 games. He was drafted 52 overall by the Hartford Whalers in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft. He was also selected in two different expansion drafts first by the Ottawa Senators in 1992 & then by the Nashville Predators in 1998. His first real opportunity to play in the big league came with the St. Louis Blues who were coached by Joel Quenneville with star players such as Hull, Pronger & MacInnis.

Born in 1929. He went through the dirty thirties & remembers the struggles of WWII. He has been married for 65 years, has 11 children and has just a wealth of knowledge. Unreal to sit down with Terence and walk back through a great life. We discussed his love of horses, all things Lloydminster & hunting with dogs ... and no gun.... seriously

Leo originally from Dalmeny SK. spent 30 years officiating doing over 3500 games. He also was a ref assignor & at one point was assigning for 12 different Junior & Senior leagues while doing all of Lloydminster Minor Hockey. He was the inaugural President of the Humboldt Broncos, has been inducted into the Alberta Hockey Hall of Fame as well as the Saskatchewan Baseball Hall of Fame. 

Undrafted, made his NHL debut in 1983 for the Pittsburgh Penguins. He made a name for himself when he was traded to the Edmonton Oilers and took over the nickname "Gretzky's Bodyguard". Once there he would be a part of two Stanley Cups and the infamous trade that sent Gretzky to the Los Angeles Kings. Such a great dude. This one will not disappoint.

Born & raised in Lloydminster. He played for the Spruce Grove Saints of the AJHL winning back to back championships. He won a World Junior 'A' Gold medal in 2015 and has been with ASU for the past 4 years.

Born and raised in Lloydminster Lance played his juniors with the Red Deer Rebels. He was drafted twice into the NHL once 10th overall by the New Jersey Devils in 1996 and then again 64th overall by the Florida Panthers in 1998 you may be scratching your head as to how that's possible but I promise that is exactly what happened.  Other highlights: - Stanley Cup Finals with the Anaheim Mighty Ducks - Mike Babcock & Iron Mike Keenen - Fighting Owen Nolan & Zdeno Chara - 1st Goal in Madison Square Gardens - Getting chirped by Mario
