Hockey talk and a bit of the Irish craic with NHL Historian/Author Liam Maguire and Go Hockey Media's Paul C. Cuthbert. Step up to the bar and let's talk some hockey! It's time for Sticks and Taps.

Episode 14 - Today on Sticks and Taps the story of the original bad boy of the NHL. A man who was on the cover of Sports Illustrated on January 28, 1963. He played in the Stanley Cup finals, he won championships in the minors, he tore a swath through a number of leagues, he at one time held the penalty minute record for one season in the NHL and on top of that he was an actor performing alongside the likes of Frank Sinatra, Tom Selleck and Emilio Estevez. We are talking about the one and only, Howard John Edward Young, better known as...….Howie Young.

Sticks and Taps Irish Song of the Week - Our Irish song today is dedicated to a friend of Liam's who passed away three years ago today, Greg Fagan, one of the best athletes in the history of the region of Ottawa-Carleton. Today, we play Finnigan's Wake, performed once again by the Clancy Brothers, an appropriate tune in Greg's memory.
