Sound of Hockey is still in quarantine, but that doesn’t mean it will stop putting out great content!

This week, John, Andy, and Darren welcome Jason Berger, Equipment Manager for the Tampa Bay Lightning, for a light-hearted look into his world working behind the scenes of an NHL franchise. 

With Jason, the guys take a journey down the road that he followed to get to the NHL, which coincidentally led him to Seattle at one point. Along the way, Jason shares some funny stories of his experiences taking care of pro athletes, how Equipment Managers go about multi-stop road trips, and some of the trials and tribulations associated with “picking things up and putting them down.” 

Brief segments this week include Goalie Gear Corner and Weekly One-Timers.

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...
