The fact that you guys even debated who is the greatest penguin Mario or Sydney is a joke! Talk about recency bias. You lost credibility just even having this discussion. “ I sort of lean towards Lemieux“ Get real! I genuinely question if they subconsciously have an anti-French, anti-Quebec bias!

Used to listen regularly and used to be great. Now the pods come out very irregularly and I don’t listen anymore after several talent changes

I’ve been listening to this podcast for three or four years now and it just keeps getting worse. Rapidfire is horrible and stupid. The sound quality has not improved over many years. You never know when it’s coming out and when it does, it’s often outdated. It’s actually embarrassing that the...Read full review »

These guys sound liked they are buddies who smoked up and say whatever thing comes to mind. Dude. So many statements framed with: I suppose, I guess, kind of, etc. a bit lacking for guys who have studied professional journalism.

Like the content - enjoy the chit chat of the guys who are on the verge of making NHL lineups. Need more hockey talk and more Ryan in general and less Mike talking about random stuff.

I like the breakdown you provided for the western conference, but please work on player name pronunciation. It was like listening to Don Cherry pronounce non North American names.
Jagermiester123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/23
I miss these guys doing draft coverage and also the mailbag like back in the day! You guys need bring that back!!

So another decent podcast ruined by the woke generation. I want to hear hockey news. Not half baked opinions. These guys are better in print, listening to them is maddening. Stop “like, like, liking” so much. As for the “other” added podcasts to the lineup. What a bunch of turds. Unfortunately...Read full review »

I enjoy this podcast but really miss Ken Campbell and Matt Larkin. The volume is too low and I cannot listen to it when I am outdoors.
SharksFan1947 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/23
Love this pod, but as a subscriber to the hockey news magazine, this podcast leaves much to be desired—I was initially surprised that the esteemed and well-respected Hockey News publication would put their name on a show with such bad production. It sounds like it’s recorded on totally casual,...Read full review »

Was good

I like the ECHL episodes, but please learn how to pronounce Worcester (“WUH-stah”).

I can’t handle sound quality. Sounds like u guys are in a cave... microphones guys...invest..until then cheers
ptoroyboy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/22
Fantastic Contant however the latest episode sounds as though it was recorded on my seven year old daughters karaoke machine…
steve515151 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/22
Love the podcast, but I thought I should bring it to your attention that it won’t download unless I’m connected to wifi. Every other podcast aside from yours I’m able to download using my data wherever I happen to be.
KingCongdon via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/30/22
Knowledgeable hosts (for the most part). A bit “hot takes” but otherwise good. Guys, I just listened to a recent podcast and you’re both coughing and sniffing throughout. For God’s sake spare us and take a sick day…
Podcast reviewerrr via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/06/22
Podcast is really starting to find its footing since Ken Campbell & Matt Larkin left. Stephen Ellis is impossible to decipher and incredibly frustrating to listen to a lot of the time however — he’s gotten closer to the mic (maybe too close) in recent episodes but *please slow down* no one...Read full review »

Informative, professional and overall a very solid listen. I do miss Ken Campbell and Matt Larkin. Campbell, Larkin and Kennedy were a great trio. Kennedy and Larkin were good too.
pdidds83 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/22
Lol no mention of Andrew Copp with regards to deadline success evaluations. Cmon ! Agree w others re : audio qual as well. Xo
lil'gastrolith via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/22
Inconsistent volume between hosts, audio issues occur far too often and the page downloads far too many episodes onto my phone than is worth it. Even though they turn out good podcasts between a lot of brutal takes I’m considering unfollowing.
bdankys via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/15/22
They cover all aspects of hockey the hosts are interesting and fun to hear. The only issue is sometimes their volume is not consistent between the hosts or so it’s hard toFind a comfortable volume level.
Bruins42Rule via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/22
Please get better audio huge difference between hosts and then there is somebody in background that i can never hear
skiny ninja via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/28/22
Great hockey content, but please, please, please can you adjust the volume of the guys microphone s? Ryan has a loud booming voice and Steven kinda mumbles. Makes it hard to listen without constantly adjusting my headphone volume. Thanks
JXCD Ron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/22
Love the show guys, love the depth, national and international look on Ice Hockey. One suggestion please turn your mic volume up, I can barely hear you guys and have to turn my volume all the way up & even then it’s hard to hear.
gggg596 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/22
This is an informative podcast. However, the subtle cheap shots have gotten a bit annoying about people that aren’t willing to be vaccinated, accept lockdowns and the differences between the US and Canada. Longtime subscriber and supporter signing off for good.
JordanSamson1984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/22
Great podcast, very entertaining. Only complaint is that there is a huge difference in the loudness of the 2 hosts. This is consistently an issue, I can barely hear the one guy and then the other one starts speaking and it’s really loud.
tower 22 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/01/21
Great insights and very helpful for fantasy players, but the audio is sketchy most of the time. It either cuts out, or as with today’s podcast…echo echo echo.
GlutenBane via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/14/21
I enjoy the content but only get half of it because the audio cuts out so frequently. Figure it out boys. Incredibly frustrating!
ms lovely82 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/22/21
The content is decent, but get Ryan Kennedy internet from this decade, it cuts out constantly
hockeyguy222222 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/21
Audio quality getting really crappy. Understanding Zoom is how this is being done, but it’s god awful. Pauses, dead space, glitches. Clean this up. Could be 5 stars again
Bobby-O30 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/21/21
Seriously. Kennedy cuts out consistently for 3-8 seconds. It’s unbearable. Give the man a raise so he can get faster internet.
Princeofjupiter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/21
It’s stunning how consistently bad the audio quality is for this podcast.
WorldWideWinder via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/21
Whatever these guys predict the opposite will happen lol. How do these guys even have a show? Bottom of the barrel and all they will talk about is the Toronto Maple Leafs. Not good
Glslickshooter via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/11/21
It’s really annoying when podcast hosts talk ‘under their breath’ because when they do so you can’t understand what they say! Also, during long discussions about a player, it would be great if they repeat that players name rather than just saying “he” and 30 to 45 seconds later you have to go...Read full review »

Love The Hockey News magazine, but this podcast isn’t very good. They’re so negative on so many cases and belittle their listeners sometimes. I only listen to it occasionally when I’m waiting for the next Spittin Chiclets episode to come out
SK9595 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/21
The bias is unfathomable. Once I heard them say the east is the “worst division in hockey” hard to take anything seriously. This is basically the Fox News of Hockey podcasts.
cschools via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/21
So I’ve downloaded a lot of new podcasts in the last 12 months, this being one of the newest as I attempted to expand my Winter Sports library. I don’t know much about Ice Hockey, but the topics and news talked about here are good, clear and precise in such a way that it’s easy for a hockey...Read full review »

I think the podcast is ok not bad not good, but I think the takes are pretty ehh. The podcast is kinda like your overprotective mom who you love and does some things right but you don’t really like her. So overall it’s ok.
patrick tserpes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/21
Love the pod but the one guy needs to get better internet, his audio cuts out on every episode.
Rissa30 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/21
Bad hosts lacking knowledge of the topics
Patrick Ihnat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/20
The original show is great, the other 2 or 3 random side shows they throw in are annoying, don’t remember subscribing to iron mike Keenan
oilsaretrash via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/10/20
It ‘was’ a decent podcast but now it’s a variety hour podcast with some pretty obnoxious alternatives to be completely honest.
......allnicknamesaretaken via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/20
Like a lot of hockey podcasts, it’s all useless cliches without any insight. Just a boring podcast
akdiebdia d s via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/20
Funny pd keep up the good work
Renegades 11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/20
Top NHL analysis. Need to stick to what they know best and skip the politics.
Woke Scolded via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/20
This podcast is a breath of fresh air compared to Fantasy on Ice, they’re not biased which is important. I’ll continue to listen.
