All 60: Or Is It All 75?

All 60: Or Is It All 75?

Author: Steve McLean November 7, 2024 Duration: 1:12:10

Steve might be home from his WHL trip but that doesn't mean the WHL talk has to stop!

Ryan Switzer is back and is eager to hear about Steve's trip out west as they discuss their experiences in each place. Why do some fans in Kent get a bad reputation? More players are leaving the USHL for the CHL with the NCAA set to lift the ban any day now. Would it even be possible for more USHL teams to latch onto the CHL?

Tri City and Everett are rolling but Ryan is pretty happy with Swift Current's start as well.

Hitting the road with a mission that blends a love for the game with a deep curiosity about the places it's played, All 60: A CHL Podcast is the audio journey of super fan Steve McLean. This isn't just a studio roundtable; it's an evolving travelogue anchored by weekly conversations. Steve connects directly with voices embedded in the three major junior leagues-the QMJHL, OHL, and WHL-turning correspondents into guides for what's happening on the ice and in their hometowns. You'll hear the immediate buzz about draft prospects, trades, and playoff races, but the discussions often veer into the texture of the journey itself: planning routes, finding the best local spots, and what makes each stop unique. The underlying goal-visiting every one of the 61 CHL arenas-provides a constant, compelling thread, making each episode a step closer to that complete picture. It’s a podcast for those who see hockey as a gateway to understanding communities across Canada, where analysis of a weekend slate of games sits comfortably beside tales of the road. The result is a show that captures the culture and sheer scale of major junior hockey, one conversation and one mile at a time.
