This is the beginning of the slow but inevitable transition of Eck just becoming the Moosehead's social media manager.

as a fellow Halifax native, you're an absolute legend for this channel & what you're doing with the Moosehead 🤝 Keep up the grind man 💪

damn I never would've guessed a starwars youtuber would one day get a press pass for a CHL game. shows how much this channel has grown keep up the good work Eck

I'm a student at Dal and my roommates and I have been trying to get to as many Mooseheads games as possible. It's a great place to be to get the night started a little earlier on the weekends but is still fun to go to on a weekday night. Hope to see more Mooseheads content on the channel!

as a former junior hockey and NCAA player, I hope this type of content grows throughout the junior hockey world. In the US, junior hockey is not as well known to normal people.

The fact that I know about the NHL is already a miracle (I live in the Netherlands lmao) but learning more about more of hockey is so cool, I love to hear more about the Mooseheads

As a halifax local, you've done such a good job portraying our city. Thank you for the video and I hope you continue this sort of content!

Its cool to see you cover the chl! Ive gone to Rockets games for as long as i can remember and its always cool to see the young talent coming up.

Really like the CHL coverage. Great initiative. I think that if you focus a bit on the NHL prospects, it would help draw in a wider audience of more casual hockey fans that would otherwise only pay attention to the big league. (also, just generally really like the format and content you offer. Thanks!)

My first hockey game was an Everett Silvertips game about 6 or 7 years ago, and I have followed the WHL and the CHL ever since. Love to see you covering this side of hockey!

More Mooseheads content! Love getting a glimpse into different hockey

I support the "Moosehead Minute". As a west coast AHL fan, I had no clue about any of this and find it incredibly interesting. Your reporting and video editing from the game was top notch. Good note taking there! Please continue to show us the media booth rooms from all the arenas you end up going to! Appreciate what you do, you share all parts of hockey I would normally never see!

Yes more hockey content, please 😁

As a Cape Bretoner who loves Q games, KEEP THIS GOING, I'm beyond hyped for this in the future. Can't wait for the next battle of NS lol

hi! canadian here, although my regional league would be the OHL. a lot of people where i live dont follow the league super closely, but are aware of it. a big part of it is just coverage, people dont know where to watch games online and its not broadcast on tv, so it doesnt get much exposure. the fans of our city OHL team are also fewer than the fans of our city NHL team, so less community around the minor games. Overall i would love to see more CHL coverage, to hopefully fuel the love for them! i do believe their games are super interesting and more people would watch if they knew more about it, so the work you do is super important. love what youre doing with your chanel, cheers

As a California resident, your enthusiasm is infectious and i'm loving hearing about hockey in Canada.

Hey Eck, just want to say great content man. I live/work in England but from Canada, and love watching your videos every morning with my breakfast. NHL stuff is fantastic, but I really like how you’ve covered CHL things as well - it reminds me of the great hockey culture we have in Canada and how much I miss home. So keep going with all the fantastic content, and thank you so much for all the effort you put in

I absolutely love this, Halifax seems like my kind of place! Please keep it up, junior hockey, especially the CHL and NCAA, is really underrated and I'd love to be able to keep up. Great stuff.

Eck I love the videos!Ive been watching for a while and I think you should keep doing these videos😁

As someone who moved to Halifax from Ontario, I love Halifax, the Mooseheads, and everything about Hockey in this city!!! Eck, keep up the good work buddy!

We used to have the Texas Tornados down where I played growing up, and their games always started about 20 minutes after our practices ended, always was a great time going over there after. Completely different then going to a Stars game. Love these sorts of videos.

Didn’t know too much about the CHL but now I can’t wait for more of this content!

As someone who deeply loves Halifax and supports the Mooseheads even while living in Calgary, please keep this up

I love the idea for the Moosehead Minute. Honestly, I'm not sure how much I'll tune in just because I already work for an ECHL team and I'm just not sure how many more hockey leagues I can pay attention to but i love that you're trying new things and it seems like a fun time!

Really appreciate some Mooseheads coverage. Moved to Canada at the age of 12 for two years and watched my first ever ice hockey game at the metro centre (Didn't even know how many periods there were ☺️). 20 years later still a hockey fan but living in New Zealand. It's channel's like yours where I get a lot of my hockey coverage so getting an added dose of Moose nostalgia is great.

I really liked this video! I think having some perspective on your first press experience was nice, but I think focussing on whichever particular game, the players, what NHL teams they've been drafted to, etc. would be best for future videos. What I think would also be cool would be talking a bit about what the Mooseheads players do for the community - for instance, when I was growing up, the Kelowna Rockets came to elementary schools every year to read to kids and play hockey at lunch hour, they do community skate every year, stuff like that. I think that component of a hockey player's emotional development is becoming increasingly more important with social media and the pedestals that young kids put these guys are.

Great video. You actually had me googling airfares from my town to Halifax …

I'm over here in Washington State; Eck, if you talk about ***any*** hockey stuff, I'll listen because it's you. That said, you talking about this opened a definite interest in CHL hockey, and in fact with visiting Halifax at some point to see a game and see the city. It just looks like so much fun to just be in city, let alone getting hockey on top of that. So I'm definitely into hearing more about the Mooseheads and what's going on with them.

I love this idea. As someone from the states who knows nothing about the chl, it’s really cool to learn about it from someone who knows so much about it and has grown up with it. I think the only comment I have on it is I would like more background information on the chl teams and cultures, like if there are any rivalries, etc. I understand if you can’t due to viewer retention but I would find that really cool. Keep up the good work!

I’m down in St. Louis where we have the Blues, but for a number of years we had a team, the Missouri River Otters, in the, now defunct, UHL. During my college years attending college hockey and Otters games were an every weekend activity because they were affordable on a college student budget. The thing was, the more I attended the more I fell in love with all minor league sports. The games almost always have a better atmosphere than the major leagues and are far more family friendly. I’m now in my mid-40s and I still can’t afford to attend more than 1-2 Blues games a season and I really miss the joy that came with minor league hockey in my hometown.

Yes. This video format is absolutely perfect. Your longer form content is fun to watch and this video was paced very well. Cheers 🍻

5:32 Child hero goalie save, let's goooo! Great vid, glad you got this opportunity and documented it for us plebs.

Love juniors! And that Mooseheads song is perfect 😂

I love watching your content. Your Hot takes and opinions in the NHL and Canadian Leagues. I live in New York, so learning about other leagues and my hometown and your experiences with them really gets me interested, especially the moosehead minutes. Most importantly though, I love your descriptions of your experiences, being there as a fan, as a pressbox reporter. Its cool. Keep it up.

would love to hear a quick blurb on their opponents too. Their top players, how their season is going or at least their last few games and maybe some notable alumni who had notable NHL careers or are active in the NHL... love the CHL coverage keep it up thanks

Keep this content going!! Been going to games since I was 5 drove hours to watch them play. Love to see my province team on videos like this and get some more pub as they deserve!

Really appreciate this kind of content, hope you can do more stuff like that in the future!

Fantastic video, wasn’t even bothered by the length, glad you’re able to talk about the moose heads in the chl, I’ve always wanted to know what’s going on in the other chl leagues. Whether it’s just a minute at the end of your nhl videos or their own video I’m still gonna watch and enjoy it either way!! Keep it up!

I actually started following the QMJHL this year so seeing you cover it is awesome! I would love to see more. Looking forward to see which team will come out on top this season (Your Mooseheads or my Quebec Remparts)!

Damn you, Eck! I live in New England and have tons of family in Cape Breton. I've always wanted to visit Halifax but family reunions have always caused me to pass it up. You just gave me like 15 new reasons to visit!

love any content you cover dude, keep it up!

I love this type of content man, keep up the great work!

Reminds me of the Michigan Tech Macinnes ice Arena with a few thousand packing the stands and all the boxes on the end, which is a cool way to watch if you've never been up there. Having half of the stadium full of college students just makes the experience that much louder and fun

Star Wars fan from the main channel, but i played hockey in elementary and middle school in the US so I am loving the content. keep it going Eck!

You're clearly passionate about these kind of videos, and it comes through in the content. Keep em coming brother.

love your videos Eck! always do a fantastic job!

I love this! It reminds me of my hometown of Erie and the Erie Otters! Our town is very supportive of the Otters, especially after we had Conner McDavid and when we won the championship in 2017. I've been going to games since I was born and was at the Championship winning game! Definitely an electric atmosphere when the arena is packed!

Love this new format. There's so much content about the NHL but not about the minor leagues. So please continue, especially including background infos.

i'm here to learn more about hockey and you're doing great. i'd love to see more of Mooseheads!

i liked the little bit of history and comtext of the cities culture around the team. gave me a reason to be invested

I was at that game as well. You could see the skill and size that Sherbrooke has which will work well in a playoff series. Halifax will need to improve defensively. Rousseau made some huge saves at critical times. You good feel the Cataford vs Fleming scrap coming. Great game!

Looking forward to more CHL coverage

So excited for more Mooseheads content! Keep up the great work man and congratulations on getting press credials dude!

Hi Elk, I follow you on this channel since oct 7 2022 (Your video: WTF the NHL doing?) Since then I didn’t miss any of your videos, always left a LIKE, and this is my first comment. I first enjoyed how much content you gave us in a short 1-3 minutes video. That’s why I subscribed from the start !! What I appreciate about your content is: -the perspective you gave us on any topic you develop is always interesting. I enjoy listening to your point of view. -your deep and strong knowledge of the game (Anyone can easily acknowledge that you LOVE THE SPORT OF Hockey, and not only NHL hockey). -your series of videos on the Junior World Championship, make me follow the event closer than ever. Your passion of the game is contagious , I can testify my friend. What I appreciate about you is: -Whenever you give your opinion, your humility have a way to make it sound like ; it’s not an absolute and anyone who thinks different from you is not stupid. On the technical level here’s what I think : - Your audio is excellent! - Your pace and tone is captivating! - The format “short and sweet” is what hooked me up. - And in your longer video (more than 3 minutes), the fact that you annonce right at the beginning of the video the “time stamp” of different points of content is a great option you give your audience. (Even if I personally never skip a part. ) I’m happy for you with the opportunity of the press gallery!! Thank you sir for all the time and effort you put in your work!! It’s really appreciate!! I’m glad I discovered your channel buddy !! Keep it up !!! I wish your Mooseheads and Rangers a great end of season and a good playoff run ! - From a Bruins fan from south shore of Montreal (Yep it’s possible!! Risky, but possible…)

I loved this video. I have been to Halifax and loved it and would love to go to a Moosehead's game, plus I always enjoy hearing about what is happening in the leagues below the NHL. I have not been to a game in the QMJHL, but that is high on my bucket list as is going to a game in the WHL. I have been to games in the OHL, NHL, ECHL, AHL, NAHL, some junior games in Vancouver and started my love of hockey in the old WHL with the San Diego Gulls when the Canucks and Portland Buckeroos were the teams to beat. One of my bucket list items would be to go to games in Europe. Go Mooseheads!

This is great it really does show the average fan a new dynamic and deep dive to where some of the best nhl players come from.

Me as a Swede would love some Q updates! always love learning more about hockey over the atlantic!

Personally, I loved this video and am actually finding myself kind of interested in the Moose. I'd love to see the MM become a regular thing at the end. I don't think it would be too intrusive and nor would the occasional only-Moosehead video. Love that you mentioned who the Moose's top prospects are and to whom their rights belong.

Love the Moosehead minute. As a Moncton native. I've been to quite a few Wildcat vs Moosehead games and they are always entertaining! Would love to see more videos on the Q too!

As a Czech, really looking forward to (hopefully!) your analysis of the Bruins/Flyers 6:0 win. :-)

That's huge man Congrats! I gotta get out to a game this year the team looks stacked especially with great forwards. Hopefully they can make a run to the Memorial Cup, would be awesome if they could win on the 10th anniversary of our first victory in 2013 with Mackinnon and Drouin

Great content. I used to go to as many Red Deer Rebels games as possible, back in the college aged years. Me and a buddy would just go to the foyer of the Centrium and without fail someone would see us poor looking college kids and give us spare tickets that they had on hand. Its a tragic shame how much it costs now, i think its north of $25 to get in, which is a bit much. I don't need the flash and dazzle, the jumbotron or whatever else, just give me the junior hockey. Any ways, back when I was going was when the Rebels were a wagon, Phaneuf, Colby Armstrong, Martin Erat, Just Mapletoft, Jim Vandermeer...wow what a team!

Very cool video, Halifax is on my must to go list to watch a game. I remember in 2013 (or 2012) when the Remparts blew 0-3 lead against the Moosheads. Still hurts, but I respect this organisation. As far as I’m concerned, you can do more CHL video

Yeah keep covering these games/content like this alongside NHL videos etc. Love the videos!!

this is a next level video, keep it up! being from hfx, ive always wanted to learn more about our team!! go moose go🤙

Your channel is amazing. You've got something in you, highly related to creating content, keep it up.

Hey buddy, congrats I love that you got the press pass! I really enjoy your videos, the breakdowns of games/events in the NHL have been really awesome to watch and look forward to. As for Mooseheads content, I enjoyed the Minutes in this video but would say that as someone who doesn't particularly follow any specific Q teams I would be interested in hearing more about story lines such as which teams in the Q/CHL are contending for their championship/have the best shot at making the Memorial Cup, which players are standing out in the league and which rookies are making headway. The specifics of the Mooseheads games is entertaining and for your own sake I think you should definitely put your all into it, I just follow the WHL more (I'm from Victoria) so just my two cents.

Great video. It's awesome to see detailed coverage of minor league hockey. Your attention to detail and explaining the tiers and leagues is great. Awesome view of the city as well. Keep up the good work and enjoy that press pass.

Great video nice to learn some stuff about the Mooseheads that I didn't really know I live in PEI and am a fan of the Charlottetown Islanders but to be honest I don't really follow them that much I usually go to a couple of games during the season just wanted to let you know that it's great to see stuff about the QMJHL on here and love all your other videos too

Cape Breton native here love your videos hope all goes well and exited to see where this channel is headed

As a Halifax native I would LOVE more Mooseheads content

Fantastic! The best thing people may not be aware of is that there’s no music during gameplay like many other sports. This makes it a great way to just get out for the evening and socialize without having to raise your voice too much! Glad to see the content! Great way to introduce people to the Moose.

Back in 96 or 97 did a port visit(USN) to Halifax. Was about 2 dozen ships for 5 or 6 Navies and first night out we were all in our dress uniforms. Had a great time in your city other then finding out you can't see a movie on Sundays.

"SLAPSHOT, SHOOT, SCORE, YOU JUST CANT STOP THE MOOSE!"

Definitely keep up CHL coverage especially since you're so passionate about it. Also appreciate the nod to Nfld with Atlantic provinces 👍

Love these new videos Eck, especially the fact that they’re longer.

I'm from Chicago but a huge hockey fan and know about the CHL and how it works but would love to learn more so this video is awesome, would love to see more

Always loved hockey but never watched anything outside of the NHL. Love all the hockey content brotha! 2023 is your year💙

I really liked this video for the local culture bit. I don't really know a lot about Halifax and I love learning new things about culture and geography, especially when it can be related to hockey :)

I'm super pumped to see more videos like this.

Being form montreal i enjoy hearing whats up in the qjmhl! i enjoy everything you make and when you said that you were older than I thought in another video you really got me. i could have sworn you were like 25 🤣 anyways keep up the vids!! thanks for the content to watch!

Definitely need to cover more chl content, they dont get enough publicity as it is which is a shame because there’s a lot of great hockey/young talent that most people miss out on and it helps prospects get more attention that they deserve! Love the content keep up the good work!

Love the CHL content and love the longer form content too. Also glad to know I’m not the only hockey loving Star Wars nerd

First time commenter here, this channel is great. Over the past 6 months I’ve gotten really into hockey for the first time in years now i am following more than j my fav teams. But I don’t care at all about moose heads. Like at all

I love the moose heads! So cool to see this insider scoop! Hopefully we can get more!

wow that building fan in the intro looks amazing. great drone shot

As a Haligonian, I love it! It's harder to follow the mooseheads and this is awesome

I don't know if this is a good idea, but it would be interesting to see the Moosehead Minute segment as a KZfaq Shorts series. Love hearing about this experience though, I would totally travel to see a game.

I dont care much about the CHL but I do like listening to you talk about your experiences with it and all about Halifax

Nice work. The Q needs a bit more love in Canada. I'm an OHL guy but I follow all 3 leagues. Maybe your Mooseheads will battle my Spitfires for the Memorial Cup this year? I'm pulling for Halifax. Got some friends there and that's their boys!

Love the qmjhl content keep the good work!

Chl content is awesome! Would love to have your recaps on the memorial cup or CHL leagues playoffs

I think you should make videos like this occasionally and always have the minute thing at the end. Also you should make content your passionate about, you obviously love the moose heads so why not dedicate at least some time to it, nobody will stop watching you. Your the best hockey Chanel on YT.

The Timbits exhibitions during the intermission is a complete W.

I’d love to see some CHL coverage, I think the best way to format would be focus on what you know best(mooseheads), but also cover some other interesting parts of the CHL

I’m from Cape Breton so it’s cool to see a big hockey channel covering the Q

Hi! Things that are interesting about this rink! (Played in there on Tuesday following world jr's) 1. The glass and boards are 'dead'. No bounce from them, which keeps the puck in the zone. You can hear the glass- it has a lower pitch clunk. 2. There is rubber on top of the boards. The boards and players bench have a rubber on the top. It kind of grabs you as you get checked. 3. The seats are dark blue. When the puck goes up in the air it is quite difficult to find as a camouflages with the background. Maybe it's different with fans? There were zero people in the seats when I played in there. Zero. Less than zero. 4. The players benches move!! Both players benches have like 6 inches of travel forward and backward. It's surprising! And been like that for a long time. It must not bother the players🤷‍♂️ Eck!! Let me know if you want me to get you in there to play some pick up hockey.!

Dude congratulations on all your success on your channel. Go moose Go

More CHL content would be awesome. Knowing what's up in the leagues I can't go to games in (WHL, QMJHL) would be awesome

I’m gonna love this series!
