Darren Pang: The Little Goalie and a Playoff Push

Obie and Updogg are joined in studio this week by the shortest goalie to ever suit up in the NHL and current broadcaster Darren Pang (@Panger40)! They discuss a range of topics, including the best chirpers in the game today, the prevalence of power plays in today's NHL, and the impressive play of Clayton Keller. Pang also shares his experiences meeting the legendary Wayne Gretzky, the NHL's TNT broadcasting deal, and even includes a look at some of Pang's most memorable goalie gear.
