The 2019 IIHF World Championships are well underway in Slovakia, and with that comes another year of the prestigious Dreger Cafe.

If you haven't heard by now, the TSN Hockey Insider fine dines some of the best hockey players in the world for a one-on-one sit-down interview on a number of different topics.

This year, we've already seen the Hughes brothers, Mark Stone and now Matt Murray hit up the cafe for some snacks and refreshments while fielding questions.

The popularity of Dregs' Cafe is reaching new all-time highs, so much so that now t-shirts are being made about it.

The best part? All the proceeds of the sales are going to a very good cause.

Former NHL defenceman Carlo Colaiacovo, who now works as a morning show co-host on TSN 1050's First Up with Michael Landsberg, threw the 'Dreger Cafe' logo onto the shirts.

The source of the inspiration came from when Carlo's two-year-old son, Leo, was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow. 

Thankfully, little Leo is in remission, and now Colaiacovo wants to help kids out like Leo at the Ronald McDonald House of Canada in honour of his son. 


As of yesterday, 35 shirts were sold at $19.99 each. There are 22 different colours in stock, and Carlo is hoping to reach 100 sales.
