Summary
Hello, dear listeners, this is "Talk with Tad". In this week's episode I met two men who just finished their long and successful careers in the NHL. One was born in Russia, the other in Canada. They met because of hockey and fell in love with each other. They were outed against their will and the whole world learned about their relationship. They never openly talked about their love story, never wanted to be defined by the fact that they were the first married couple in the NHL. They let their performance on the ice speak for itself, and today they are two of the most successful and highly decorated players of all time. It was a great honor for me to sit down with these legends and talk with them about their lives, their relationship and their future. We spoke about the problems they had to face inside and outside of their relationship, mental health and therapy and, of course, I asked them about their next steps. They revealed more than we ever knew about them, so, stay tuned if you want to learn more about two of the greatest hockey player of all time.
