Episode 41 The Next Generation Behind the Bench with Nick Walters
Sep 1, 202301:36:52Tap to summarizeThe talented pool of Alaskan hockey coaches continues to breed the next generation. After many years of tutelage from some of the best, Nick Walters takes over behind the bench of the Anchorage Wolverines for the 2023-2024 season. Nick has assisted under Rodney Wild (CHS), Matt Curley (UAA) and Evan Trupp (Wolverines). His service under Matt Thomas (UAA) as Director of Hockey Operations and two years with Joel Johnson (USA Hockey) as a Video Coach further increased his development and accent up the coaching ladder. He now blends all of his experience of X’s and O’s, management, recruiting and leader of young men to stand center stage behind the bench at Ben Boeke and in arenas across the county in the NAHL.The pre-interview round table heats up as the Dumpers find themselves in the studio for the first time in 2023.

Transcribe →Episode 40: The Runt of the Litter with Tim Molle
Nov 11, 202201:25:01Tap to summarizeAt 6’ 5” Tim was the runt in the Molle family growing up in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He just didn’t have the physical mass to follow in his brothers footsteps of professional football and Olympic wrestling. Thus, he took the less violent path of…ice hockey. Tim was a larger than life gentle giant in the locker room and on road trips. But, he journeyed from junior to UAA to pro filling all the columns in the box score along the way. Goals, assists and of course, PIMs. After a wild ride in the minors with the Oilers and Canucks organizations he returned “home” to Alaska to assistant coach at UAA and finish out his career with the Anchorage Aces. At that time he joined the Anchorage Fire Department as both a fireman and a player/coach on AFD’s new hockey team. In 2014 Tim Molle was elected into the University of Alaska-Anchorage Hall of Fame.#AFD #SJHL #UAA #IHL #AHL #anchorageaces #draftkings #3lm #dumpnchangepodcast*Stay tuned to the end of the pod for some bonus material from the recording.

He was also an assistant bench boss to Brush Christianson at UAA in the early 80’s and took the helm of the Anchorage Aces for the 1992-1993 season.

Nov 1, 202101:14:07Tap to summarizeDick and his wife Jeannie said to each other back in 1970, “Let’s do something crazy.” The “crazy” was to pick up and move from their home state of Minnesota to Alaska…or Australia!

Hailing from Baudette, MN Coach Thompson played for The Lake of the Woods High School Bears before moving on to the powerhouse University of Minnesota-Duluth. After landing a job at Dimond High School he would assist Head Coach Bernie Simon flooding the rink and drawing up the X’s and O’s.
