Shutting Down The Las Vegas Strip

Steve Mayer is the Chief Content Officer at the NHL. He’s responsible for organizing all the big league events including outdoor games, the draft and All-Star weekend.

Steve joins Jeff and Elliotte to talk about some of the challenges with organizing an event in Las Vegas, how they are using the Bellagio Fountain and why they are shutting down the strip, adding ball hockey to the festivities, future outdoor games (including Florida), and what it will take to get backwards skating into the skills competition.

This podcast is produced and mixed by Amil Delic, and hosted by Jeff Marek and Elliotte Friedman.
