On Episode 4 of Crunch Chronicles Lukas Favale is joined by Eddie Pasquale. Pasquale played two seasons for the Syracuse Crunch in 2017-18 and 2018-19 after he was acquired by the Tampa Bay Lightning in a trade on February 1, 2018. Eddie posted a 10-1-3 record with the Crunch after joining the team that season and he helped them advance to the North Division Finals. He returned for a second season in the organization and grabbed the number one goaltender spot, going 27-12-6 in 2018-19. He guided the Crunch to the North Division title in the regular season and earned the Harry 'Hap' Holmes Memorial Award as the Crunch led the AHL in goals against per game.
 
Over the course of two seasons, Pasquale recorded a 37-13-9 record with a 2.20 goals-against average and a .921 save percentage. His 37 wins are tied for sixth all time in Crunch history. His 2.20 goals-against average is the best among Crunch goalies who have played a minimum of 25 games and his .921 save percentage ranks fourth among that group.  
 
The Toronto native also made his NHL debut with the Tampa Bay Lightning during his time in the organization and he went 2-1-0 in three appearances in 2018-19. Following his time in Syracuse, Pasquale has spent the last three seasons in the KHL; he won the KHL's goaltender of the year award in 2020-21.
 
On the show, Pasquale discusses how he enjoyed playing in Syracuse, both as a visitor and as a member of the Crunch, making his NHL debut with the Lightning and his new venture in the KHL.
