‘Marty’s Illegal Stick’ spotlights local hockey players in the Mohawk Valley of New York, and people that have connections to the NHL.
In this episode of Marty’s Illegal Stick, we chat with former New York Ranger and Los Angeles King Tom Laidlaw! We talk about his time, teammates and rivals from his time in NY, being traded to Los Angeles, and the hysteria of Wayne Gretzky’s arrival - including celebrities in the locker room and being in on Gretzky tying Gordie Howe’ all-time scoring record! We also discuss Tom’s current project www.truegritlife.com!
In Hot Takes we cover changes to the draft lottery and the referee Tim Peel situation, and The Zamboni Time Machine takes us back to when the tradition of a sea creature being thrown on the ice started in the Motor City!
