Welcome to Episode 1 of Good People in Hockey — hosted by former pro player and coach Tatiana Rafter.
In this premiere, ESPN’s Arda Ocal joins to help introduce Tatiana as the host — and in true “good people” fashion, she flips the mic to share Arda’s journey, too.
You’ll hear about:
• Tatiana’s bold move to play in the women’s KHL in Russia
• Arda’s unlikely path from local Canadian TV to ESPN
• Behind-the-scenes moments from ESPN’s "Experience" trip
• The story behind launching Good People in Hockey
Produced by Michael Gerl, this episode sets the tone for a podcast that goes deeper than stats — into the real stories and people shaping hockey culture.
