Ice is ready and welcome to the Empty Netters Podcast! We're brothers who played hockey in global showcases, elite prep schools, and top level juniors, before flaming out into the beer leaguers who sit before you. Now we're podcast hosts bringing you the best news, analysis, & interviews in the hockey world.

From Jack Eichel to PK Subban to Jeremy Swayman to Chris Chelios, Empty Netters is the place where the biggest names in the sport come to talk hockey, play games, and snap it around tape to tape. Welcome to your favorite NHL player's favorite podcast.

We've got the effortless chemistry (and pure hatred) that only years on the ice can build. Do you think Datsyuk has the best hands in the history of the league? Do you think Sidney Crosby is somehow underrated? Do you think every goalie should have to wear the Hasek helmet? Same. Let's hang.

We drop new pod episodes every Monday and Wednesday, along with plenty of other YouTube content. Hit us up any time. Until then, skate hard.

Empty Netters Podcast

Beer league beauties and NHL fanatics, Dan & Chris Powers, bring their absurdity and humor to all things hockey. Covering topics from the NHL, all the way down to the beer leagues, with a dash of everything else in between. 

Chris and Dan Powers are hockey players from York, Maine. 
An adventurer at heart, Chris is fluent in zero languages and still cries when he gets his haircut. He tried to kill Dan in the womb, despite being two years older than him. According to one anonymous source, he’s never lost a Super Smash Bros free-for-all.

Dan is convinced fire isn’t real, a belief that has cost him thousands in property damage. At age 3, he invented the “low five” but has yet to receive credit to this day. He can eat more shrimp cocktail than any living creature.
