    WOW. What a great interview!!! Sopel was a warrior for the Blackhawks when they won the Cup in 2010, but I had no idea that he was battling those demons. The truth always finds a way to surface during these Raw Knuckles Podcasts. GREAT INSIGHT!!!

    I knew that Chris Nilan went to college but watching all of these interviews gives you an insight to just how articulate (or ahticulate as he'd say) he really is. Him getting fired over a vaccine was tough for him but it's been great for the rest of us with this podcast. Keep up the good work, Chris!

    Very sobering episode that transcends hockey today. Sopel doesn't pull any punches here. Leaves the boys speechless at times. Must watch for fans of this podcast.

    Another beauty. Feel tremendous empathy for this athlete who was brutality honest. Here’s a guy who won a cup and was extremely lonely fighting demons. Great podcast gentleman. Keep up the great work.

    It was very informative listening to Brent talk about his life it made me question my life and the struggles I've had with addiction I'm doing prison time I know that I am not psychologically well and I probably need help because I could relate what Brent spoke about and if you remember me knuckles you'll understand why what happened between us happened that was so unfortunate I thought I was making a friend instead I lost a friend it was a great podcast really enjoyed it😢😢😢

    How’re we supposed to grow the game if we have the mindset of don’t show skill or else you’ll get a stick in the face?
    Is it disrespectful in basketball to do an alley-oop or dunk? If not why in hockey do we have to hold the league back?
