🏒 SOUND OF HOCKEY FEST 2026 — Sept. 19 · 2–5PM · Gantry Public House Arena RSVP Now →
Episode 47 – Numerical Disrespect

Sound of Hockey is a back to a more traditional format this week, breaking down the latest in Seattle, CHL/WHL, and NHL news. 

The biggest bombshell of the week came from Darren’s beloved Minnesota Wild, which opted to relieve General Manager Paul Fenton of his duties after just 14 months at the helm of the franchise. Sure, it’s probably #Minnutiae, but deal with it, because it’s a pretty big and interesting story, and John, Andy, and Darren do a good job discussing what led to the surprising firing. 

In addition to the Wild news, the guys discuss a big-time hiring in the CHL, share their thoughts from the World Junior Summer Showcase, and rip on the Ottawa Senators (again). Oh, and by the way, lots of chatter on this episode about proper jersey number selection etiquette, which has recently become a hot topic. 

Segments in this episode include Explain It To Us, Weekly One-Timers, and Tweets of the Week. 

SUBSCRIBE! ENJOY! REVIEW!

Three Takeaways – Kraken go down with a whimper in 5-1 loss to Wild

Much of the Seattle Kraken’s success this season has come from playing from ahead, building a lead and then holding on—sometimes for dear life—or even blowing said lead before bouncing back. In a 5-1 loss to the Minnesota Wild on Saturday, the Kraken were chasing from...
