    Glenn Healy on what playing with GRETZKY was REALLY LIKE and MORE... CTC 96

    Stanley Cup champion, broadcaster, and current President of the NHL Alumni Association Glenn Healy joins the Clearing the Crease podcast! Heels shares unbelievable, hilarious, and raw stories from across his hockey journey—from being an undrafted goalie out of Western Michigan to landing in LA right as Wayne Gretzky arrived, the legendary 1993 Islanders playoff run, winning the 1994 Stanley Cup with the New York Rangers, and literally misplacing the Cup after the parade. Plus, Glenn dives deep into the vital work the NHL Alumni Association is doing to support retired players with medical, transition, and mental wellness programs, and the boys answer a fan question about what the dynamic between NHL enforcers is really like behind closed doors.
