On this episode of the "House of Hockey" Podcast, Rae Rae is joined by hockey journalist Allan Kreda, diving deep into the latest NHL news, PWHL news and sharing candid opinions on the hottest topics in the hockey world. Breezy is on the podcast’s IR. Allan Kreda is a long time writer who’s covered the three major NHL teams in the greater New York area, New York Rangers, New York Islanders and the New Jersey Devils. He’s spent almost two decades with the Associated Press. He’s covered money and banking, the National Hockey League and the sports media business.  First up, let's talk about the thrill of back-to-back games in the Stadium Series. It's a bold move, but what are the thoughts swirling around the league? Does the excitement of consecutive games add to the spectacle, or does it dilute the impact? And what about the decision to allow other games to be played simultaneously? How does that affect the overall experience for fans and players alike? But it's not all smooth skating in the Stadium Series. Merchandise availability, particularly concerning the NJ Devils is notable and Allan shares his perspective on what the NHL does well with these outdoor hockey festivals. Shifting gears to the on-ice action…Allan shares the general response from players and fans about outdoor games like the Stadium Series.  Turning our attention to the New York hockey scene, how's the Coach Patrick Roy era treating the New York Islanders? And we review the current states of the Rangers, Devils, and Flyers. What's the pulse of each team, and what can we expect from them moving forward? In a heartwarming twist, the Rangers and Islanders recently shared the Stadium Series stage with local heroes: firefighters and policemen. Donning jerseys representing their respective departments, these players honored the brave men and women who serve their communities. Meanwhile, the Flyers and Devils brought some pop culture flair, dressing as Rocky and Tony Soprano, respectively. It's moments like these that remind us why hockey is more than just a game—it's a platform for unity and celebration. Looking ahead, Allan shares some fascinating anecdotes about rubbing elbows with hockey legends like Adam Graves and Rodrigue Gabriel Gilbert. Plus, he's co-authoring a memoir with Ken Morrow, a true hockey icon with multiple Stanley Cups and a spot on the 1980 USA Olympic Miracle on Ice team. With stories like these, it's clear that the spirit of hockey lives on both on and off the ice.
