What a week in the NWHL! We got two hat tricks, the first shutout of the season, and one solid comeback win! Erica breaks down last week, previews Week 7, and answers a few listener questions.

Also on this episode, Taylor Accursi (Buffalo Beauts) chats goal celebrations and Sam Walther (Metropolitan Riveters) discusses staying sharp after a long break.

Finally, bless all of you who got the HAIM reference in the title.
