Hidden Houston Hockey History: The Museum Hiding in Plain Sight

This is another one of those episodes where I don't know how it'll translate to audio-only.It's a shorter episode, Sir - but it checks out.Scenes from a Memory of Houston Hockey History! On this special episode of Mission Control: Houston's Hockey Podcast, we head up to the top floor of the Aerodrome Ice Skating Complex with General Manager T.C. Lewis for a tour of Houston's hidden hockey museum. T.C. was kind enough to talk about the original artifacts dating all the way back to the 1940s. We explore the golden eras of Houston professional hockey, viewing a massive collection of WHA and IHL Aeros memorabilia, AVCO and Turner Cup artifacts, and legendary pieces donated by players and former owner Chuck Watson. There's even a few pieces from the Huskies and the Apollos. This is the ultimate walk down memory lane for any Houston hockey fan.00:00 - the 1940s origins of Houston hockey02:52 - The Apollos, Aeros, and Huskies (we think)07:08 - WHA artifacts09:48 - Everybody Loves Chilly11:10 - The Actual Hidden StuffMission Control can be found at http://www.mchockeypodcast.com - you can get sexy merch there, too.Follow on X! https://x.com/MCHockeyPodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mchockeypodcast/Add on Discord - @MCHockeyPodcastFor more on Aerodrome Ice Skating Complex: https://www.aerodromes.com/University of Houston: https://www.uhicehockey.orgRice University: https://www.instagram.com/ricehockeyInterscholastic Hockey League: http://www.ishl.orgHouston Junior Aeros: https://www.houstonjunioraeros.com/The NHL isn't in Houston - but the Hockey Fans Are!If you've been obsessing over every rumor about a potential NHL hockey franchise in Houston, you've found your people.

Livestream with Bill Meltzer and Mike Augello of Hockey Hot Stove on Building an Expansion Franchise

In this episode of Mission Control, we bring in the experts from Hockey Hot Stove: Chief Operating Officer Bill Meltzer (Philadelphia Flyers) and Chief Content Officer Mike Augello (Toronto Maple Leafs/Buffalo Sabres). We get a national perspective on Space City's hockey viability and why insiders firmly believe Houston and Atlanta are the next two cities in line. The panel breaks down the fatal flaws of slapping NHL ice into shared NBA arenas, the critical importance of hiring scouting-focused GMs for an expansion draft, and why Quebec City continues to be left on the outside looking in. Plus, Matt expounds on the latest local rumors about the old Astroworld site and naturally, we talk about a bit about Hockey Day in Houston 2027! 00:00 - Matt poo-poo's the Astroworld talk10:18 - Asking Mike: Why is Houston a Hockey Town?19:26 - Mike and Matt discuss arenas28:51 - Bill joins to discuss early indicators of success or failure37:45 - Houston, Atlanta, Phoenix... who's going to be the 36th franchise?

Touring the Construction of Deep South Ice & Sports Complex - Future Home of the Bulls

For my audio-only friends: I don't know how well this one's going to translate. Video is posted on YouTube, Rumble, and Spotify.Friends and neighbors, we are taking you behind the scenes for a construction tour of the brand-new Deep South Ice & Sports Complex in Richmond, Texas! TC Lewis graciously walks Mission Control through the massive construction site to check on the progress ahead of the facility's August grand opening and the NAHL Houston Bulls' home opener on October 2nd. We get a first look at the state-of-the-art main arena, featuring 10 luxury suites, a massive party deck, and a uniquely designed press box that brings the crowd noise straight to the broadcasters. TC also shows off the sites of the facility's massive pro shop, the incoming restaurant and sports bar, the 4-court volleyball center, and the dedicated practice rink featuring seamless sled-hockey access. Houston is getting another world-class ice facility! You've been wondering what it looks like in there, so let's check it out!I was asked not to film workers, so where you see a video loop, or the camera going down - that's where I inadvertently filmed someone working, and edited accordingly....and if the mic picked up business being conducted, I muted it. Seemed like the thing to do.(and I'm learning about exposure - that's not the lights dimming, that's the camera)Thanks to TC for letting us in!00:00 - Getting Started / The Practice Rink06:20 - Locker Rooms09:22 - Lower Level - Main Arena18:13 - Second Floor - Arena Access / Party Deck24:00 - Third Floor - Machinery / SuitesFor more on Deep South Ice: https://www.deepsouthice.com/Support Local Hockey!Houston Bulls: https://www.houstonbullsnahl.comUniversity of Houston: https://www.uhicehockey.orgRice University: https://www.instagram.com/ricehockeyInterscholastic Hockey League: http://www.ishl.orgHouston Junior Aeros: https://www.houstonjunioraeros.com/HTX Storm: http://https://www.htxstorm.com/Get you some sexy Mission Control merch at: http://www.mchockeypodcast.com - there's also an events calendar, too.Follow on X! https://x.com/MCHockeyPodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mchockeypodcast/Add on Discord - @MCHockeyPodcastThe NHL isn't in Houston - but the Hockey Fans Are!If you've been obsessing over every rumor about a potential NHL hockey franchise in Houston, you've found your people.
