It’s Episode 5 of The Blaze presented by Rivershore Golf Links and it will bring you up to date on the ongoing Kamloops Blazers, with an in-depth look into the team.
Our featured guest this week is 21-year-old Daylan Kuefler, who is continuing his recovery process after undergoing shoulder surgery in the off-season.
Kuefler, who is currently with the Bridgeport Islanders in the AHL, recalls his journey from a 10th round WHL bantam pick in 2017 to an NHL contract with the New York Islanders. He’ll share insight into how his personality helps him navigate new situations like pro hockey.
Host Jon Keen will also have another edition of “Minten Watch 2023” and find out about his Halloween costume with the Leafs.
It’s been a terrible week for Kamloops media with the closing of Kamloops This Week. This one hits close to home, as sports reporter Marty Hastings joins Jon to break it down.
As well, Jon Keen also says thank you to all his well wishers as he commemorates 20 years as a WHL broadcaster. He’ll recap his surprise in the broadcast booth from earlier this month.
The Blaze airs Friday evenings at 5 p.m. on Radio NL with a replay the following Sunday at 9 a.m.
