I just watched my first episode of Peter Puck. They just ran it on LeafsTV during the first intermission of tonights Leafs game in Tampa Bay. I remember hearing about Peter Puck as a kid, and I had a Peter Puck colouring book, but I had never caught his little educational series that I recall.
Tonight Peter Puck taught us about icing and offsides. These were created for NBC in the 70s to teach Americans about NHL hockey, but they're great for kids. I can't wait for the next episode.

To their credit though, they just showed a brief interview with TB's goaltending coach, Jeff Reese.
Now, I remember watching him play a bunch of times as a kid when the Leafs AHL club was the Newmarket Saints. Good times, those.

I remember Peter Puck watching Sabre's games on Channel 2.

It's funny you mentioned Peter Puck.
Just the other day I looked him up on youtube. There were a few episodes.
Lucky you. I'm watching the Tampa broadcast and these guys are hacks. Whoever the colour guy is has mispronounced Toskala and Ponikarovsky numerous times already.
