About the Movers-And-Shakers

Here’s a run-down of our full-time members:

  • Liam effectively serves as editor-in-chief, with the creative writing and journalistic background, and looks at the game not too differently from his highly esteemed new GM Danny Briere. He evaluates teams looking at the big picture and thorough impacts while reconciling that with stats and talent as a wordsmith and also specializes in prospects in the North American major junior leagues (with plenty of insight on players in both the USHL and CHL) and in Europe (particularly Sweden, Finland, and Russia). He is a Flyers fan and has proven his mettle by surviving through multiple attempts at rebuilding.
  • Christian is more or less our chief operating officer. He is a great communicator with a great eye for data analytics and other such number crunching. He could be a team’s director of scouting, probably, and he has a finger on the pulse of the current trends in and direction of NCAA hockey (both Divisions I and III) that is quite remarkable. He is also our primary PWHL contributor and a large presence in the women’s hockey community. He steers the ship in many of our branding respects and is our best at networking. He is a Ducks fan and has only ever cried at sports once and it was after that one hit on Paul Kariya.
  • Erek is a newer contributor to our pod and site. He is a bit of a classic Bruins fan with a fiery temperament which can also be seen in how he approaches the forward role. Definitely our classic grinder/enforcer type both in games and in analysis, he specializes in historical/current NHL player comparisons and identifies this as his biggest passion.
  • Matthew (with two t’s) is also a Bruins fan and a new member of the team. He has competitive experience at the goalie position and effectively serves as our own Darren Pang and has plenty of insight and perspective to provide on the position. He is definitely like Erek in bringing some of the “goon” to our brand but the contributions of both will be very valued.

Lastly, our current part-timer:

  • Mathew (with one t) is a current NCAA goaltender who is our field consultant as to what the environment is like right now. He has prep school and junior hockey experience. He is the third Bruins fan member of our contingent and always brings a great energy to the room whenever he is around to participate in discourse with us.
