**This is a classic re-release of episode 32 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from October 28, 2021**
This week we take a break from talking about Sports Memorabilia to talk about an entirely different realm of sports occupation.
We're joined by ex Winnipeg Jets Captain and current Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations Kris King as he recounts NOT ONLY his 14 year playing career, but his 20+ year career working in Hockey Ops for the NHL.
He opens up the doors to the NHL War Room to give us some inside information on what goes on each and every night as calls are sent to them for review.

**This is a classic re-release of episode 22 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from August 19, 2021**
They called him "The Entertainer" for a reason. Eddie Shack was as exciting on the ice as he was off of it.
For a man who grew up illiterate, he managed to chart a path which brought him more success and accolades than some of the most well-read people out there.
Along the way he couldn't help but be loved by just about everyone he came across, and as a result his life's story could fill an entire book.
In 2019 Brian Ehrenworth, the President of Frameworth Sports Marketing and Frameworth Publishing, recruited Ken Reid to help tell the story of Eddie's life.
Before the end of the year, they were touring across Canada celebrating The Entertainer's return to the limelight.
In this episode we sit down to recount everything that went into making the book--from the exhaustion to the exhilaration.
You can purchase copies of this book in your local bookstore, or by following this link: https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/books/eddie-shack-hockeys-most-entertaining/9781999209803-item.html

**This is a classic re-release of episode 20 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from August 5th, 2021**
When we started this podcast we set out to give our listeners an inside look at the world of Sports Marketing. There is a lot of hard work that goes into our industry, but we wanted to make sure we also showed the lighter side.
As is the case with all industries, as an oasis in the middle of our more difficult times we have the luxury of taking part in events, meet interesting people, and let loose with some of the most incredible characters around.
In this episode we wanted to make a point to highlight some of these moments by outlining some of the funniest stories we've experienced over the years.
We plan on revisiting this formula plenty of times in the future, so let us know what you think!

**This is a classic re-release of episode 3 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from April of 2021**
Some of the most interesting names in sports are the ones you may have never heard of. This week, we're joined by someone who is living proof.
If you know the name "Rocket," it's either because you've been on the wrong side of an athlete interaction, or the right one.
Rocket has worked in the field of Athlete Security and Concierge services for decades, and he's known in the industry for having some of the most amazing stories from the inside.
We learn how he got involved in this business, and he shares some of his most memorable experiences.

**This is a classic re-release of episode 13 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from June of 2021**
It's almost impossible to talk about the best teams or players to ever take to the ice without someone bringing up the fact that "the game is way too different today to start comparing eras."
While that might be true in a general sense, one aspect of the current NHL seems to be overlooked quite frequently: toughness.
Are modern NHL players less tough than the breed of athlete we used to see decades ago? Or have the rules changed so much around them that that type of play simply doesn't work anymore?
Who better to ask than one of the most well rounded, toughest players to ever lace up the skates? We're joined in studio by Wendel Clark to get his perspective on the modern NHL, and how the league uses the idea of "toughness" as a selling point to attract new viewers.

**This is a classic re-release of episode 19 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast from July of 2021**
We all know Wayne Gretzky as "The Great One," but who does HE consider to be great?
We're joined by lifelong friend and self proclaimed "Male Groupie" of Wayne Gretzky -- "Jungle" Jim Jerome -- as he regales us with hilarious stories from a life spent hanging out with the NHL elite.
He's been described by Wayne Gretzky as "The funniest person in the world" and he's no stranger to broadcasting in his own right, with several successful podcasts including "The Suspendables" with Russ Courtnall, and "Inside Curling" on Sportsnet's podcast network.
If you're up for a laugh, this is one you can't afford to miss. We get into marketing and memorabilia, but this is a lighter episode compared to our usual tone.

*This is a re-release of episode 7 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast*
No matter how hard you try, and how careful you are, every so often something is going to slip through the cracks.
This is a story of one of those times when the worst case scenario comes to light. When given an NHL Superstar's collection of his own game worn jerseys for framing, they somehow managed to seemingly vanish off the face of the earth.
Every element of this story is mind blowing: from how they disappeared, to the steps we had to take in order to rectify the issue.
Believe it or not: this is one of the stories which made us consider starting a podcast in the first place, and after listening to this episode you'll know why.

Jon Mirasty has had quite a career, and it only seems to be getting more notorious as time goes on.
You'll know Jon "Nasty" Mirasty from his unending YouTube fight clips, or his massive archive on hockeyfights.com, but his cult following only increased after the release of the Netflix documentary Untold: Crime and Penalties which followed the Danbury Trashers, as well as the new hit TV show Shoresy in which he plays someone akin to a modern day Hanson brother with an even meaner streak.
This week he joins the podcast to give his thoughts on how the game of hockey has changed along with the decreasing presence of fighting and enforcers.

*This is a re-release of episode 23 of The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast*
We wanted to throw in a few revisits to past episodes in order to highlight some of our earlier interviews for those who are new to the podcast. This is part one of two, which was released in August of 2021. You can find part two (episode 24) earlier in our episode feed!
This week we're joined by an absolute legend in the world of Sports Management. It's a man who helped write the book on sports agency, and taught players how to fight back against unfair contracts.
Before the world of superagencies, Gus Badali was a man who gave young players a voice, helped give rise to the WHA, and ultimately forever changed the way that contracts for younger players entering the NHL would be written.
In this first of 2 parts, Gus walks us through his rise to stardom from a young player to one of the biggest agents in the sport (representing the likes of Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux). He also sheds light on the major contract dispute between the NHL and John Tonelli which had the major members of the league try to sue him for $2 Million.

This week we're joined by Paul Patskou who is known as one of the NHL's foremost authorities in history, archiving, video, writing, and more.
He's dedicated his life to preserving, recreating, and sourcing some of the most iconic moments in hockey history. Without his help, and his expertise in archived footage, it's likely that we would not have the videos which have allowed fans to relive moments like the 1972 Summit Series, the breaking of the NHL's "colour barrier," and Bill Barilko's Stanley Cup winning overtime goal for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
He shares some of the most fascinating stories we've heard to date. If you're a fan of the history of this great game, then this is one episode you certainly don't want to miss.

Nowadays hockey players are bonafide celebrities, and they receive the same praise and adoration as the likes of musicians and movie starts.
However, it wasn't really until the 1970s that NHL players were seen in the same circles as the world's most popular people.
At the forefront of this movement was this week's guest on the podcast: Ron Duguay. He's a man who was written about as often in the tabloids as he was in the sports section, and he relished every minute of it.
He joins us to talk about what it was like creating an image for himself, and for the league, both on and off the ice.
You can find his podcast "Up in the Blue Seats: A NY Rangers Podcast" alongside Mollie Walker and Larry Brooks on any podcast platform!

We may see them as Superstars when the likes Mitch Marner, Sidney Crosby, and Connor McDavid break into the NHL, but what we don't get to see is the amount of hard work, training, advice, and development they had to subject themselves to in their life leading up to The Show.
This week we're joined by Lindsay Hofford, the Founder and CEO of Pro Hockey Development Group who has spent time as a head coach for the London Knights, a scout for The Toronto Maple Leafs, and an Assistant GM for the Arizona Coyotes.
Lindsay and Pro Hockey Development will be working with Frameworth to find a way to help some of the world's top prospects better memorialize their paths to professional hockey through memorabilia.

When it comes to hockey, Wayne Gretzky is considered The Great One.
But when it comes to wines? We'd look to John Peller: President and CEO of Andrew Peller Limited, and a mastermind behind Wayne Gretzky Estates which has become one of the most popular wineries and distilleries in the entire world!

He even shares some stories about what it's like to play on the same line. It's The Great One, and The Grape One!

Back by popular demand: industry experts Brian and Mikey Ehrenworth sit down with some of your questions about the industry of Sports Collecting and Sports Marketing!
It's much more of a "collectors" focused episode as we talk about some of the issues that go into maintaining exclusive relationships, some of our best and worst experiences with NHL, NBA, and MLB athletes, and what we do with signatures which don't quite meet our standards of quality.

For those of us growing up in North America watching the NHL, it's easy to forget that the world of hockey extends well beyond the borders of this continent.

So what was it like as a Canadian born athlete playing hockey AGAINST Team Canada in the Olympics? And what has his experience been playing in the KHL over the past few years?
Ethan shares this story and many more this week on The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast.
