If you had one shot… one opportunity… to interview a ton of Bauer hockey players all in one hectic sitting… would you capture it… or just let it slip? YO.

 

The NHL All Star festivities took place in Toronto last weekend, and there were no shortage of events, pop-ups, collaborations, and hype. With the festivities happening so close to home, you KNEW BarDown was going to be involved.

 

We teamed up with Bauer Hockey to host a bunch of certified Bauer athletes in a fun-filled event downtown T.O.

During the event, BarDown actually managed to host a podcast episode, with more big-name guests than we ever thought possible.

The long list of guests includes… *takes a deep breath*

Abby Roque, Lee Stechlein, Ella Shelton, Jake Oettinger, David Pastrnak, Cale Makar, Nick Suzuki, Brianne Jenner, Alina Muller, Marie-Philip Poulin, Quinn Hughes, Elias Pettersson, Laura Stacey, Jack Hughes, Sebastian Aho, and Renata Fast.

*Exhales*

How’s that for a lineup?

The theme of the podcast was ranking past NHL All-Star jerseys, although there were a lot of highlights beyond that. Corwin finally faced Jake Oettinger after claiming he could score five goals on 100 shots (to which Otter thought he was downplaying himself!), Elias Pettersson clarified the true pronunciation of his name, and Marie-Philip Poulin giving her thoughts on the early days of the PWHL.

 

@bardown This is how you properly pronounce Elias Pettersson’s name 😯🇸🇪 #hockey #nhl #vancouver #sweden ♬ original sound - BarDown
