The phenomenon that is the Vegas Golden Knights is moving to next-level intensity as the historic first-year NHL franchise slides into the Stanley Cup playoffs. We are exploring Vegas hockey madness with Ken Boehlke, a local radio veteran who got the jump on this topic when he created the Sin Bin podcast and website way back in 2015. No one knows the city’s first major league pro sports team and organization more intimately than Ken and he’s got a lot to say about why the Golden Knights are so good and how they’ve impacted the community.
We also talk about the historic night of October 10 when the Knights played their first regular-season home game days after the tragic shooting on the Strip, Mark’s hockey history, the process of evolving the Sin Bin, the magic that happens at T-Mobile Arena, why we’re all obsessed with William Karlsson’s blonde mane and much more.
EPISODE 4: THE VEGAS YOU NEED
Ken gives a shout-out to the amazing Pinball Hall of Fame, an awesome place full of old-school fun for the whole family.
Mark is sticking with the hockey theme. He wants you to go to City National Arena’s energetic pub, Mackenzie River Pizza, and even gives the official Canadian stamp of approval to the poutine there.
Brock is becoming obsessed with China Tang, the new fancy Chinese restaurant at MGM Grand, because it’s upbeat and energetic and not intimidating but still has super delicious food.
