TCA Ep759: with Hailey Salvian
On today's show Matt goes one on one with the new kid on the block in Ottawa sports media - Hailey Salvian of The Athletic.
Please take a moment to support the show by leaving a rating and review on your podcast app.
Hailey speaks to us about her fascinating journey to the NHL beat, her great years spent with the Oshawa Generals, getting the call to return home to Toronto after living in Saskatchewan, the importance of having done "real" news early in her career before moving over to sports, having a chance with her platform to help shine a light on the women's game, being dropped in to Ottawa to cover her first NHL season with he Senators just weeks before it started, her thoughts on the off season the Ottawa Senators have had, what this coming hockey season might look like and tons more.
You can tell by the way Hailey's colleagues talk about her that she makes a positive impression everywhere she goes and just a few minutes in to our show today it's not hard to see why. It was a wonderful chat with a reporter who has a fresh perspective and a great personality. We think you'll enjoy this one a great deal.
