April 15, 2021 | The Hockey Betting Podcast

Around here, the first rule of Fight Club is: Follow the rotation numbers. And so, the guys drop their gloves as the puck hits the ice on the April 15, 2021 episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. In his defence, Brian Blessing claims, "The hopped-up, sugar guy got me all nuts to the point where I missed the first game, so blame me - have another drumstick." Keep your guard up as the guys stay punchy until the very end, and if you think the guys were on fire in the last episode, the guys are in rare form this week. Feeling good, Louis! Trading places with Brian, Cam Stewart takes the host's chair halfway through the show and sings a few songs in his debut. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's NHL picks predictions, situational betting angles, and lots of laughs.
