Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie, Toronto Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews, Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman and head coach Jon Cooper, and St. Louis Blues forward Ryan O'Reilly will be among the guests who sit down with the inimitable Bennett.
"Men in Blazers On Ice joins a robust slate of NHL content that focuses on storytelling and showcases the personalities of our players and coaches," said NHL Chief Content Officer & Executive Vice President Steve Mayer. "What sets this series apart is Roger Bennett's playful but inquisitive interview style. His engaging and fun conversations with some of our biggest stars are a must watch for our audience. I learn something new every time Roger does an interview."
"I fell in love with the NHL the moment I moved from England to the United States, thanks to the magical Washington Capitals' collective of Olaf Kolzig, Peter Bondra and Craig Berube," said Bennett. "It is a total delight to sit down with the iconic figures of today's game and discuss the life lessons they've gleaned from career arcs so tenacious and human they transcend sport."
"The beauty of Roger is his passion, swagger, and ability to tell an irreverent story," said Chris Peddy, CMO of Jägermeister. "We are long-term partners with both Men in Blazers and the NHL. The way in which they bring people together to showcase the beauty and passion of sports comes through in this series."
