In today's episode we review some of the latest performances of our Asians in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, I introduce a little bit of my own hockey background, and we take a brief overview of the life and career of one of the greatest women's hockey players of the modern era, Julie Chu.
A professional hockey player, former captain of the US National Women's Team, IIHF gold medalist, Olympic silver medalist, and now a college hockey coach, Julie Chu is one of the most decorated players in the sport.
To wrap things up, I have a conversation with my friend Scott Okamoto, one of the three co-hosts and a producer of the Asians in Baseball podcast. We talk a bit about his show, some of the differences between baseball and hockey, and the unique experiences of Asians in sports.
