216. Stanley Cup Stories and Wilderness Adventures with Tim Hunter

On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors podcast, we sit down with Tim Hunter — a name well-known to hockey fans for his role as one of the NHL’s toughest enforcers and as a member of the 1989 Stanley Cup-winning Calgary Flames. But beyond the ice, Tim has lived a life full of grit, exploration, and passion for the outdoors. We kick things off by talking about that iconic '89 Stanley Cup run, as Tim shares behind-the-scenes stories from a legendary Flames team, and how the game has changed since his playing days. He reflects on the highs and challenges of his NHL career, offering insight into the role of the enforcer and the culture of hockey in the 80s and 90s. As the conversation shifts to life after hockey, Tim opens up about his love for fly fishing, how he got into flying airplanes, and his unexpected journey into the world of cowboying and ranch life. Whether he's casting a line on a remote stream or piloting a small aircraft into the backcountry, Tim's post-hockey pursuits reflect a lifelong sense of adventure and a deep connection to nature. This episode is a rare blend of sports history, outdoor passion, and personal storytelling from a man who has lived multiple lives with intensity and heart. Whether you're a hockey fan, an angler, or just love a good story, there’s something here for you. Thank you to our sponsors:
