Is the Hockey Guy the best Hockey YouTuber

[Coffey]

God no, this guy is so boring, so vanilla, so Canadian.

This. I like guys that show clips. Like Eck, Hockey Psychology or Jonathan Hawkey.

THG seems like a good guy and years ago I watched/listened to quite a bit of his stuff. I’d say he’s very productive, but his it’s all very bare bones and I don’t know what I get from his videos.

Pro Hockey Alumni is a Youtube hockey account I can vouch for if you’re interested in well-made videos on interesting characters in hockey history:

Pro Hockey Alumni

The Pro Hockey Alumni channel is celebrates the legends of hockey's golden era: 1967 -1993 We started this channel with one goal: to help preserve some of the greatest stories this game has to tell. These are the stories of the NHL and WHA legends that made us fall in love with the game. We...

Most prolific? Maybe. Best? Not even remotely close.

Reading HockeyDB and box scores is not "good" content.

 

[Felidae]

He's probably the most popular, but my personal favourite is HockeyPDOcast. They are more on discussing specific players and analyzing their game.

Not to mention the highlight videos that accompany them which showcases the players strengths. For example, his Barkov mix has steals, zone entries, passes, scoring chances and defense sections.

 

[The Nuge]

Nope. He just kind of rambles on without really saying anything.

The only one I watch with any sort of regularity is Jonathan Hawkey

 

[ijuka]

Absolute vanilla, I don't understand what people get out of watching his videos.

 

[ViD]

Lol he's a Canuck homer masked as a massive hockey Aficianado. It makes him money so why not.
His all time defenseman ratings was comical.
Not even close to the best hockey youtuber.

If he isn’t, tell us who that is then

 

[MyNameIsTaken]

He’s an excellent centralized news source. Puts out SO many videos. I’m just dying for some actual analysis though so I always leave disappointed.

HockeyPsychology has been interesting to me recently so I can vote no, but honestly youtube is not a hockey hotbed, so it’s almost a yes because there isn’t any competition.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I watch his power rankings when the Rangers are doing well and once in a while watch his recaps. But he's got no personality and adds literally nothing to his "analysis". He just describes what happened in the games and literally anyone can go on NHL.com and watch the videos of the goals. The fact that this is even a question demonstrates how poor the hockey podcasting options are.

 

[GettingYourMoms]

I don´t know if he´s the best but he is certainly very likeable and i enjoy his analysis. Czech channel called Icing TV is by far the best and most professional especially Matěj Hejda, guys have connections to clubs in the NHL and are extremely funny, they are czech language only though...

 

[Bouboumaster]

Yes

I would prefer a bit more analysis from his part, but at the same time, I guess he don't want to deal with f***ing morons blasting him in the comment section because they didn't like something he said

 

[blundluntman]

I agree with everyone here. Watched him a bit in the past but his hockey content is very bare-bone. He's a good guy though and his non-hockey content on his other channel is pretty cool. The only hockey videos of his I really watch nowadays are the ones about players I wasn't around to watch. Sometimes it gives you a decent idea of how the average fan felt during the time.
