    Episode 161 Justin Schmit

    EPISODE 161 – JUSTIN SCHMIT Some guys play hockey. Some guys LIVE hockey. Justin Schmit is about as old school as they come. We went back to his Midget AAA days, playing for the legendary Hounds at a private school in Saskatchewan, where he racked up 15 fights. And if you thought things were going to slow down in junior hockey, think again. Over 200 PIMs later, he carried that same mentality into the SPHL. Justin is the ultimate teammate. First guy to show up, lives for being at the rink with the boys, and always has his teammates’ backs. It’s never been about the spotlight for him. It’s about the game, the friendships and the memories. He’s currently waiting on his visa to get back to the Fed, while already making his mark in the Quebec league with 6 fights in 8 games. Some things never change! But there’s a much deeper story to Justin. This summer, he’s taking on an incredible challenge: rollerblading across Canada in support of suicide awareness, in memory of his brother who he tragically lost. We shared some stories in this episode that will hit you right in the heart. There are laughs, some unbelievable hockey stories, and moments that might leave you reaching for the tissues. This one’s bigger than hockey. Tune in for Episode 161 of Between the Benches with RallSauce Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Episode 157 Peter & Taylor Boudaj

    EPISODE 157 – PETER & TAYLOR BUDAJ 🏒🔥 Presented by COOL Blonde Lager 🍺 Beauties and Rockstars, we’ve got a first for Between the Benches! Our first-ever husband and wife duo, Peter and Taylor Budaj. Peter takes us through his road to the NHL, from being a European draft pick to playing OHL hockey in Toronto, making his NHL debut, and sharing the room with some absolute legends between the pipes: Patrick Roy, Carey Price and Jonathan Quick. He also gives us some stories from his days in Colorado and what it was like playing in Montreal. But Taylor’s got her own all-star stories. She takes us back to her first NHL game… three years after Peter’s debut, and what life was really like inside the wives’ club. We get into moving 13 different times, new teams, new schools, and raising two AAA hockey boys while following the hockey life across the country. Philly became home base because it put Peter in a good spot to see the boys when he was travelling on the road. And then there’s their first date. Peter was ignoring Taylor, so she grabbed his phone and put her number in herself. THAT’S an all-star move right there! One’s an NHL goalie who played with legends. The other’s a hockey mom who’s been navigating the chaos of hockey life for years. Different roles, same team, and making the distance work one season at a time. This one’s got hockey stories, family life, laughs and a whole lot of realness. 🎙️ Episode 157 is live! 🍺 Presented by COOL Blonde Lager #BetweenTheBenches #RallSauce #PeterBudaj #HockeyLife #COOLBlondeLager Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 155 John Perretta

    Beauties and Rockstars, WHAT AN EPISODE! 🔥 We kicked things off with some Toronto Maple Leafs talk before Deeds joined me to sit down with New York City firefighter John Perretta. Johnny’s the definition of a beauty, living his childhood dream and following in the family footsteps. Running into burning buildings, using the Jaws of Life at car crashes, responding to overdoses and even rescuing 2 cats from trees so far in his career. From the start of his shift to the finish, Johnny is out there answering the call and helping New Yorkers when they need it most. But when he’s not fighting fires, he’s bringing that same intensity to the hockey rink! 🏒 Johnny played junior hockey growing up and now suits up for the New York Fire Fighters vs. New York Police charity hockey game. And Beauties, don’t think this is some friendly skate where everyone takes it easy! These guys train ALL YEAR for this game. Big hits, cheap shots, chirping and fights this is their Stanley Cup, and bragging rights are EVERYTHING! Johnny broke down what this rivalry means, told us about one of his fights that Deeds actually did a play-by-play on, and gave us a behind the scenes look at just how serious these guys take it. The best part? They’re raising money for a great cause while putting on a show so entertaining they’re selling out NHL arenas! Huge respect to Johnny and all the firefighters and police officers who put their lives on the line every day and still find time to give back to their communities. This one’s got hockey, firefighting stories, rivalries and some absolute GOLD.

    Episode 154 Kurtis Gabriel

    EPISODE 154 — KURTIS GABRIEL BETWEEN THE BENCHES WITH RALLSAUCE We kick things off with a Toronto Maple Leafs update after the boys take down the San Jose Sharks at home! Gavin McKenna shows off those soft hands in tight, burying the game-winner. COOL BLONDE LAGER PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Auston Matthews! He’s putting up points, sitting at 16 points, and showing great leadership while helping bring McKenna along. Then we sit down with Kurtis Gabriel and what a story this guy has. From battling his way into the NHL to playing with the Minnesota Wild, New Jersey Devils and San Jose Sharks, Kurtis made it clear that nothing was going to stop him from reaching his dream. He fought for every opportunity and left everything out there. Unfortunately, a hand injury ultimately brought his playing career to an end. But that wasn’t the end of his story. Kurtis opens up about life after hockey, the tough times he faced in retirement, and how he’s turning those experiences into something positive by helping other athletes and people who need support. Through Locker Room Talk, he’s using what he’s learned to help others navigate life, find direction and realize they’re not alone. This is a great conversation about hockey, adversity, identity and finding your purpose when the game you’ve dedicated your life to comes to an end. Check out Kurtis’s work here: 🔗 https://the-next-arena.mykajabi.com/locker-room 🎙️ Between the Benches with RallSauce Real conversations. Hockey. Life.

    🎙️ Welcome back BEAUTYS and rockstars to another episode of Between the Benches with RallSauce! This week we’re going full throttle with a TRUE GRIZZLY — a 20-year vet of the game and an absolute legend — Justin Schmit. 🏒🔥 Fresh off a championship win, Justin’s packing his bags and heading straight to Topeka, Kansas, where he’s stepping into a brand-new role as assistant coach AND player. Yup… we’re talking full Reggie Dunlop from Slap Shot vibes here — the boys are about to learn from a guy who’s lived every inch of the hockey life. If you’ve seen Goon, you already know the type — this man eats, sleeps, and breathes hockey. 💪 He’s the guy who’d do anything for the team, always has the boys’ backs, and pours his heart into every shift. A fan favourite everywhere he goes, both on the ice and in the room, Justin brings that old-school toughness and passion that’s missing from today’s game. So saddle up, folks — this one’s a wild ride. 🍻 Strap in for stories from two decades in the trenches, raw locker room tales, and the mindset of a man who’s still lacing ‘em up for the love of the game.
