107: Kelly Chase Talks Blues Hockey, Alumni Support, and His Next Chapter in Hockey.

On today’s 100% Hockey , John Shannon and Daren Millard welcome former St. Louis Blues forward Kelly Chase for one of the most personal and wide-ranging conversations we’ve had on the show. Kelly opens up about his ongoing battle with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , reflecting on the physical and mental toll of treatment, the fight to stay positive, and the perspective he’s gained along the way. The conversation then shifts to his next chapter: the launch of his new podcast, set to debut this Saturday, where he continues sharing stories with the same honesty and grit he brought to the ice. From there, the trio turns their attention to the Blues and why St. Louis has become one of hockey’s true hotbeds in the U.S. Kelly weighs in on what he believes is the league’s top goaltending tandem, the shifting roles in today’s game, and the surprising resurgence of the “tough guy” identity that defined much of his career. They also discuss the growing medical assistance available to NHL alumni and how that support is making a difference for former players. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a Kelly Chase appearance without a few unforgettable stories from his playing days sprinkled throughout.
