On Episode 84, the crew talked about the NHL trade deadline deals made on Monday including, Claude Giroux to the Florida Panthers, Marc-Andre Fleury to the Minnesota Wild, and Max Domi to the Carolina Hurricanes; and yet another beer league teammate of Jon’s scored an empty net goal this week and well, Jon is not happy about it.
On the first Beers in The Lot bonus episode, One More Beer, Jonny and Rigs discussed Auston Matthews and other NHL stars, snapping on the ice and complaining about recent NHL officiating; Darryl Sutter implying his Calgary Flames team would probably be swept in the first round if they face the Colorado Avalanche as a wild card team in the Stanley Cup Playoffs; and Jack Eichel’s comments about the less than warm welcome he received in his return to Buffalo as a Vegas Golden Knights player.
On Episode 83, the Beers in The Lot crew is joined by original Old Fat Bald Guys Hockey League goalie, Gregg Gellman. He talked about having fun in the local beer leagues; the OFBG seasonal award for best goaltender named after him-the Gellmanzina; his naval career and serving now in a more diplomatic capacity after starting in the Medical Service Corps; playing hockey in various forms all over the world; working as a local fire captain and paramedic in the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service; and his incredible experience working as a medic on set during the filming of Mighty Ducks 2.
On Episode 82 of Beers in The Lot, Rigs made his comeback to the podcast after a health scare; he explained what was going on and what he learned from his experience; and the crew tried to get the message across that your health should be a priority and not taken for granted.

On Episode 81, Jon started us off with his side of the rough stuff from his Monday night game, then as the conversation moved toward Mitch Marner’s great fantasy night vs the Red Wings, Daniel and Aaron re-iterated their indifference to the fantasy standings. We broke one of our rules and very briefly touched on non-hockey current events, and rounded things off talking about fast food.
Episode 80 had a unique start, but Aaron, Danny, and Jon figured it out eventually despite Rigs’ absence again. This is probably the last you’ll hear us talk about the olympics for a while, but certainly not the last time we’ll rip on Philly and take shots at the Yotes while we talk about other clubs. In this case, it was Montreal. Jon also had a bit to say about his game on Sunday night and the extra room on the ice.
