Alongside her co-hosts, including former NHL players and hockey analysts, Julie provides an accessible and engaging discussion about the sport that both casual fans and die-hard enthusiasts can appreciate.
“Puck Talk is about much more than just what happens on the ice,” said Julie in a recent interview. “We want to bring fans inside the rink, showing the people and stories that often get overlooked.

In addition to the more serious discussions, Puck Talk also features lighter segments, such as funny anecdotes from the locker room, player traditions, and interviews with both current and former NHL stars. These moments of levity balance out the more serious discussions about the state of the game and the future of the sport. Julie’s role as a co-host allows her to pull back the curtain on the less glamorous side of the NHL, while still celebrating the passion and thrill of the game.
