  Send us Fan Mail Both Southern California teams are in the NHL playoffs, and the vibe is equal parts disbelief and full-on rivalry. We jump straight into what that actually means for the Anaheim Ducks and the Los Angeles Kings right now, not in abstract “playoff hockey” clichés, but in real matchups, recent form, and the little warning signs that showed up in the final week of the regular season. We start with Ducks news, from San Diego’s Calder Cup push to roster movement and the trade cond...
• Bonus Episode: Phil Hulett Interview 15.04.2026 1h 3min

  Send us Fan Mail One voice can change the temperature of an entire arena, and Anaheim Ducks public address announcer Phil Hulett has been proving that for years. We talk with Phil about the real job behind the mic, the moments fans remember, and the invisible pressure of getting every detail right when 17,000 people are listening and the game is moving at full speed. Phil tells the origin story that still feels unreal: a simple cold call that led to an Angels tryout, a mentor who taugh...

  Send us Fan Mail One minute we’re celebrating a birthday and planning meetups at the pond with stickers in hand, and the next we’re deep into the kind of end-of-season hockey chaos that makes the NHL feel like a daily soap opera. We talk LA Kings roster movement and why entry-level signings and college free agents matter right now, especially with the long-term question hanging over the lineup: who eventually takes the reins when Anze Kopitar is done.

That’s the energy we bring to Royally Quacked Episode 106, with a full ride through the week’s NHL news, Pacific Division chaos, and the real stress test of a late-season playoff push. We start with ...
• Episode 105: The Cardiac Comeback Kids Lead Pacific, Kings Still In Playoff Hunt! 30.03.2026 1h 25min

  Send us Fan Mail A goal gets challenged, the replay looks obvious, and somehow the call still goes the other way. That kind of week sets the tone as we grab coffee early, trade a little baseball trash talk, and then sprint through two full weeks of Anaheim Ducks hockey and LA Kings hockey before heading to the Ducks watch party at Brewery X. We talk legacy and momentum on the Kings side, starting with Anze Kopitar hitting 1,500 games and taking over as the all-time points leader for the LA K...

  Send us Fan Mail You can learn a lot about hockey by watching highlights, but you learn even more by listening to someone who’s lived every layer of the game. We’re joined by Daryl Evans, LA Kings radio analyst, lifelong skating teacher, and the man who scored the overtime winner in the Miracle On Manchester. He takes us back to street hockey roots, a first season where he could barely skate, and the power-skating breakthrough that flipped his entire path. We also get practical advice for beg...

Then we get into the hockey, beginning with Anaheim Ducks news and Ryan Strome’s classy farewell before the conversation turns sharp. The heart of the show is our deep dive on the Radko Gudas suspension and the fallout ...
