Jay Stevens is joined by Richard Chernomaz via phone to talk about his hockey career beginning in British Columbia, getting drafted by the Colorado Rockies in 1981, and moving up from the junior level to pro,

We also dive into his time in Salt Lake City, UT for the Golden Eagles and how he was expected to be a developmental guy with NHL aspirations. We reminisce about Rich's years playing and how some of his fondest memories with skill players and protectors shifted his coaching mentality.

Then we talk about how the game has shifted towards speed and whether or not his style would be a better fit for the modern game and what it was like to share a locker room with NHL Stanley Cup champion and Olympic Gold Medalist, Theoren Fleury.
