Episode 41 The Next Generation Behind the Bench with Nick Walters
The 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.

Episode 40: The Runt of the Litter with Tim Molle
At 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.

Episode 39: What’s Juniors? with Mike Ashley
The star of his Nunaka Valley Elementary School club team in the 60’s, Mike Ashley went on to cut his teeth in the Saskatchewan Junior League for the Weyburn Red Rings. That rough and tumble, rise and grind experience would pay dividends when he traded his stick for a clipboard. Coach Ashley amassed 10 state high school championships during his tenure behind the bench at Dimond (head), Service (assistant) and South Anchorage (head). 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.
Now retired from both coaching and teaching Mike is still heavily involved with USA Hockey as a Pacific District Evaluator for Alaska. He officiates youth/adult hockey and volunteers at high school hockey games as an off-ice official.
The 2019 Alaska High School Hall of Fame inductee has honest and intelligent takes on all the hot button topics about the state of Alaska hockey. Forever the rink rat, this rat has stories. A lot of stories!
