Hi, my buddies. Welcome to the show as we get into it here on a beautiful Friday. That's Friday, Friday. Yeah, of course it is. What day, what else? What other day is it? I thought we're going to Nashville on Friday. What are you talking about? We are going. As soon as we wrap this thing up, we're hopping on a bird. We got to go. We got to go. Oh, got to make it quick, guys. What a game last night as the, Calgary players.

Well, we'll get into it. Welcome to the program. It's a presentation of Bet365. Yeah. Should have grabbed my liners. It's weird that I wouldn't be. Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at Bet365. That's right, right, rat, whether it's the money line.

Promocode, perhaps. Nation. Nation. Much bigger logo for that on the old afterburner. Why is that, Jack? Any idea? I think they heard you. They must have heard you.

Yeah, not on this show. Don't. On the other show. Maybe on the other show. Bet365. Official gaming partner, great partner of Barnburner. And of course, we're here in the McLeod Law, LLP studios, maclod dashlaw.com. I hope we're not having to text Peter Klein or Austin or any.

Can't discount that chance. I'm in the back of it. Can you still call, collect international? I don't know how that works. You know zero or how do you do it? Peter, what's a bail bondsman and how do I get one? There's a chance we may need someone in the litigation and dispute resolution group. Luckily, Shane King is one of those.

We know him well. If it works for us, it can work for you. Shane, what do you know about Tennessee law? for inebriation. Oh, your intended, that's the word. You couldn't have picked the worst. Tennessee. I don't know why.

You guys, it just couldn't have worked out worse for you. It's terrible. It's terrible. We decided today we're not going to do super chats. So no horn, no super chats. Oh, geez. What about the kids? We cut that fat check already this week.

I saw last night, you raised a lot of money for the kids. We did well last night. We'll call it. Yeah, we'll just kind of, that's how that'll work. That's how that'll work. Yeah. Do you actually remember to bring home? Well, I take them with, I have a bag that I take with me to work.

It's got a computer in it and some pens. And I put my headphones in there. Yeah. And on this early morning, you didn't. Notepad. Yeah. Carry around my game sheet from that game last night. So I can tell you that Igor Sharon Govich won zero faceoffs.

Zero. That seems low for a centerman. For a centerman. Well, how many did he have? Six. Jeez. Jeez, Louise. Yeah, he was 0 for six in the faceoff dot, which I have it here. Zero percent, boys.

Didn't our Igor score as well, though? Well, he does score, yeah. You want to score goals and win face off? I'm not, like, I'm just, the numbers are what they are, Ryan. I'm not reading in. They just are what they are. Sure. So they led one nothing.

They let two to one. Same things happened in Toronto. Three to two. Lost four to three. Good on you, boys. Yeah, it's an RBW right there. Is it?

An RVW. Like I was, because we're all talking about the success or what, how can you rail on the team or coaching decisions or things if, when you're happy with it with a loss? It's a tightrope, I'll tell you that. But the pros can do it. That's why we're the best, Dino.

That's why we're the best. I wouldn't ask any schmose to try to do it. Yeah. There was a question on afterburners. Well, how can you bitch about Bean and Hanley? And then you'll be sour if they win or happy when they... Well, that's a very good point. I don't really have an answer for it.

But I was... It's a single point. It's not a show on philosophy, Dean. This isn't a philosophical show. We're here just to, like you said, we're giving you the truth. The numbers don't lie. Whatever our emotions are, that's the way we.

Yeah. We don't make things up. It's not a bunch of hot takes in here that we're not feeling. We wouldn't do that to you. Wouldn't do it to you. I guess thoughts, there was a lot of emotion on the Thursday show about, you know, Zane Perak and Connor Zeri, as it turns out, Perick has an injury

Relent to believe. Not bad enough that he couldn't skate yesterday or this morning going late, but an injury. It's an injury. Connor's very healthy scratch. Hey, you do you. To me, that just reeks of this is how we've done it in the NHL and we can sit younger guys with no

qualms. Yeah. The words can come after us. They're kids. And we'll take less shit if we say he's injured. And if I sit a backland or somebody else not saying you should have. Yeah, yeah. Then the questions are asked and it's

very much a hot seat and somebody's upset and there, then it's so we'll just, we're going to take someone out. This is a younger guy. This is done. Young guys out. Yeah. Three and four. We'll see on the weekend. Lots of games left.

Was there a winning? A lot of the young guy and go, hey, you're just learning. You're still coming along. Don't worry about it. What are you got to play? lineup. They're going to play 82. You got to play all 80. Oh, God, no.

So greedy. So greedy. Pass it around. Let some other guys have some fun in it. One regulation win in 12 games. It's not a lot. Did they get a lot of overtime wins? One.

So two total. It's still tight, though. You look at the standings. It's still tight. Well, yeah, okay. In fairness, it's an extra. A shootout. the Euler game went to eight rounds of a shootout.

So they don't have an overtime when they do have a shootout when they have a regulation win. How many ties? Well, they don't do ties anymore. Oh, shoot. Yeah, they put you through the three on three overtime unless you take a penalty that it's four on three. Yes, I noticed that last night. Yeah. Okay, we're pissing around.

What did you think of cooling? Because he has been. I was good. He's the guy that I got the job. be backed in to what he guys know good just because Prasvatov was the shits, this guy, he's,

he's been, he's been fine too good. Has to be, he's probably got a 9-10, say percentage, like a 9-20. Like, it's two games.

He's been shelled and he's allowed four goals on like 60 shots. Like, that's great. He's fine. Plus. And yeah, he was dog shit in the preseason and so was

Prasvot. It would a really nice weekend in the A. Like, okay, good, not an issue. You don't need to go trading for a goalie. No, not at this point. No, made some big saves in the overtime. Coolies horse shit for a month.

Maybe Prasotov comes up for a bit. Like it's such a non-event when they've played two of 12. When they've won two at 12. The backup. Like it's literally like, oh, this guy might get 14 games. Like, who cares? Although it might help Wolfout. It should.

It should. Right? Like. Yeah. And you got a back-to-back to back. this weekend, like you might see, I think you will see Cooley in one of those two games, Nashville or Philly, probably Philly. Probably Philly. Probably Philly. Don't care. Whatever. Play against Lidar. Shovlidar. Hey, we don't miss you at all. Hey, tall guy. How good I am. No, this guy's tall too. These guys are way better off with me. Instead of you. Two wins. Yeah.

I honestly, like, I shit you not. I don't know how we're going to do this all year. Oh, it'll be fine. I do. The less we have to talk about, the better of the show. I'm a firm believer in that. I really am. Some of the worst shows is when there's so much sports, we can't fuck around. But on that's what we're best at. But yesterday on the show,

you guys got, you got red all hot and bothered. You got them all wound up. Yeah. That was our job. You know, whatever. It lost. It's probably for the best.

When's the next game? Oh, Saturday? All right. Well, we'll see how. Saturday afternoon. I'll stay even deal. So you go from like being like F-bomb, loud

arguing you can't like this I'm trying to prove a point to the listeners and the fans that they can sit whoever they want

because they're not that good yeah it doesn't and so you can say Zari or Coronado or Klapka or this guy or that I don't care they're taking the easy guy out

and that's fine I don't care but anyone could leave that lineup maybe not caught you right now Yeah, Cadries look good. That's another, and I like that line. Like, I don't, Fubertoe's okay, but like Frost has come to life there.

He's been really, really meager offensively since arriving. Now he's not. And he's come in and take faceoffs because he's better than Cadre did face off. So it's like, okay, that's one line. And the Hansick Coleman Backland, those guys seem to know what they're doing together. There's another line. And the rest, it's like, well, we got Toronto. Not saying they're good necessarily, but I mean, they get a goal to,

to offset the big mistake that led to the goal. I don't think they were good in Winnipeg. They were good at home against the Rangers. Like it's been a better stretch of that line. I had to remind myself watching this game. Oh, yeah, Hansick got a goal. How is he? It was the middle of the third period.

Like there was nothing backland to Coleman Hansick. There was no, that was such low event hockey that there was no. That is what they play. They are the kings of low event. I was a little surprised in the, in the senators because they had scored, Well, they had seven. They had 13 or 14 goals. I think the senators are dragged into the flames.

I think they were on the road, weren't they? I think this might have been their second game. No, you know, there's Chicago. In Chicago, they got a pump by a dart. Dude. First came back, Brett. 10 years ago, 12 years ago, what was our worst game of the season?

First game? Minnesota on a Tuesday. Yeah. That's what the flames are. It's flames on a Thursday. The sands are not going on. Oh, I keep reference. it. They put the lineup on the wall.

No one's walking by that lineup going, holy shit. I'm not going to be able to sleep this afternoon. No, they're basically saying, guys, can we not screw this up, please? And then three, two and the third and they're like, guys, we weren't going to screw this up. You know, that's what it was after two periods. Because Flames actually looked like the better team. I thought through two periods, it looked very sleepy for the senators. And then the first two or three minutes of the third is,

Sean, Reeb and coolly was stand on his head. and they're flying around. I mean, yeah, that was, if I was to guess, if you were to ask Travis Green, probably one of their poorest efforts of the season. We always talk about this from the other side of the coin. Like when the flames had the top line of the league and it was Kachuk and Kedro and Lindholm

and you were in first place in your division and you won the West or whatever. It was like, oh, and I don't overlook this last place team. You know, I know you got Edmonton on the weekend, but you've got to go into San Jose. Like, don't be sleep. The flames of that team now. they're in 32nd.

They have the weakest limp noodle offense in the NHL. They are the team that is going to throw their backup in at you and say, boys don't screw it up. If we just put in 60 minutes, we're fine. That's the team the flames are on the out of town scoreboard now.

They don't want to hear it, but it's true. They didn't play Hellabuck once last year. It doesn't sound nice when you say it out loud. But it's true. But, Dean, you started the show saying, And 0 for 6, just not taking a shot at them. It's what they are.

This is their last place. They're last place. You can pretend that, whoa, well, Coronado's good. Okay. Cadre's good.

Okay. Backlands, okay. Compared to who? Yeah, they're definitely NHELers. I said this, you know, I was saying this to Gould that when you look at, so they've played whatever,

12 games. So let's say it's six and six. and six, the games that led game against Vegas, there were some shoddy efforts. They were getting blown out. They couldn't score. They just, they looked disinterested. I would say they look more competitive,

more interested. They have played better. They have scored more goals. They have the same number of wins in those six games as they did in the first six. So it's, even with noticeable improvements. Yeah.

across the board, it's not done anything for the wind column. But what are you improving from? A historically bad offense that was going to be worse than the same person. If the teachers, yeah, if the teachers grading you, you started out at an F, you're at a D minus. That's better. That's improvement. There's a go. Way to dig in. Baby steps.

Maybe next month we'll get a C minus. But no, like I think when you look at the beginning of the homestand, because it was an ugly road trip, Utah, Vegas. You know, they got heavily pumped. Cooley saves their bacon or that one could have been ugly. But it was a good effort against Winnipeg at home. You know, I thought the Grangers, they score five. That's great. You score three in Winnipeg. That's not easy. You get another three in Toronto, three tonight. Like, at least it's not the, just get, you know, my goalie allowed two and we're losing. Like, they're better, but they're still, it's like what Red says. They're, They're now not the worst offense in the history of the league.

They're just a bad team this year. Does it scream of a team that's desperate to dig out of the hole they're in? Or does it scream of a team that's we are what we are? This is just. It's definitely more of the latter for sure. But at the same time, it's just like, I don't know what it looks like when they try really hard in the sense that it's like, there's just not a lot of skill guys.

Like, who's going to score three tonight and put them on their back? Yeah, that's my point. It's that I don't, have they been okay? Yeah, they've been fine, whatever. Yeah, and that's still not good enough. Over that, you have one win. That's it. Yeah.

We're going to lose it. So, okay. Let's pro rate this then. Oh, boy. Is this what? I think the last four, 16 wins. The last four is closer to what they were last year than,

the first seven, because I'm trying to do math on the fly here. Like, I like their effort. They lose to Winnipeg at home. You know, they beat New York. They get three in Winnipeg. There's another home game I'm forgetting about. And then, you know, like Toronto Ottawa, they're in these games. They have one-nothing and two-one leads in both games.

They have a lead with five minutes left in the third tonight. Like, I don't like Ottawa was anywhere near the best, but, you know, you could have won that game. But I guess that's just what I'm saying. So even how, well, minus the 12 games already. They got 70 left. They're not winning half. Yeah, I have in the Penderboard, but let's throw it to it now.

96 points they had last year. Okay, maybe it's just a bad start. So what do you need to do to get back to where you were last year? I thought, Brett, didn't you say to him stop talking about 96 points? No, and this isn't for us. We know, but just to remind this team, they have to play at a 643 pace. 543. And no, it's not impossible.

You know, there's a team in last place in January that won the cup, the St. Louis Blues in like 2019 or, but like, this is where you get mad at Pike now. This is insane. You have to go 643 the rest of the way. They're not going. Of course they are. But like, even for the scriptical 500 would be like incredibly impressive given the start.

Like they are firmly, firmly stuck in the bottom five of this league. me it's going to take a run to get out of the bottom five in this league. To me that like to me the comparable is not about 96 points. No. It's about. Oh. If they just let's say, hey, if they trade Rasmus-Sanchez. If they trade Nazap Codry, they've played 12.

Like you say, they got 70 left. They got two in the first 12th. How much better does it get? They've not played Colorado or like they haven't played some of the elite teams yet. There will. When you are that bad, there will be teams that don't show up. Yeah, the worst team in the league by Miles still has like 25, 30 wins. This is not like...

I would think that that's, it is something. Do they get 30 wins? Yeah. 30 wins that put you from now or total? Like total that means... Well, even total, that's 28 more. That's seven under 500. Mm-hmm.

Close. So, yeah, 14. they're not a historically bad NHL team, but they absolutely are a bottom dweller. What if Chicago and San Jose? Even just look at the schedule now. Like Nashville, that's close to their skill level at least. Philly, close to their skill level at least.

Chicago, Columbus, when you come home, close to their skill. And I'm not saying they're going to win them all, but like you go 500, you get an extra balance or Wolf steals one, you go three and one. Like, that's not crazy for this group. They'll have stretches where they, go seven and five through 12 but there's going to be a lot of three and nines out of 12.

See, this is where we're, I told you, I was looking at the standings and I'm worried about other. Is it scoreboard watching season? Yes, I'm worried about other, it's still white, it's tight out there. We're both sharks tonight. There's better teams playing the sharks. We were both

you have, you have to be careful. Do you? Don't you, yes. In this back to back on. No, you. You cannot let up. You do not let up.

Don't. Like last year, I was just, just go back a year ago. The Nashville Predators, 30 wins. Yeah. Chicago had 25. The sharks had 20. They had 20.

How many overtime setbacks? I'm trying to think how many points they had? They had 14 regulation wins. So they're 54 points? 52 points. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I think they're better than that. but that's last.

That's last. Are they a 60, 70, or 80 point team? They're not. I think they're, yeah, I think they're right on the cusp of 60 and 70. I put them right on the bridge there. Yeah. I looked at the earlier in the week at the Bet365 projected point total,

so you can bet the over the under and it's like 71. That feels about right. Yeah. And it was like Chicago, San Jose, Pittsburgh, Boston, we're in the neighborhood. And only two are worst. First place, don't shit talk,

Pittsburgh. Well, that number will be bigger tomorrow. They update it every day. Is that true? Like, you, you said that in the,

in the pre-show, is that accurate? Well, Jack's the big, honk. It is accurate, boys. 18 points.

12 more. Than the cafe. Dan the man. Hoie. Dan the man. Dan the man? Is he doing this? He's got some juice.

Gino's got some juice. They've got to be getting saved. otherwise this doesn't happen. Like, Shilov has probably been good. I'm not watching them. She'll always been good. Jari's been good as well. This is the problem with Cooley playing well.

Now Wolf gets a rest, then he plays better. Soul rested and playing great. See what I'm telling you? You got to play the bag off of him. Come on Husk. Don't worry. Good goaltending matchup on Saturday.

He can go back to back. He just had a night off. Yes. Aros and Wolf. That's, take the under on Saturday afternoon. So I'm trying to frame how this goes. because it's not Thursday night.

Of course, it's Friday as we do this. Correct. So the flames would have played Thursday night. Right, last night. And then would have flown to Nashville. What did they do last night, Rhett? Yeah, would they have gone out last night with today, Friday, not being a game day? Well, being in last place, you may as well.

Right. There's two schools of thought. There's the, let's like put our tail between our legs and whimper off to our rooms and get some shut eye and watch some video of us losing again tomorrow or there's the Mike Commodore you owe it to your teammates to go out and bleeping floor it and play guilty on set I got a bad I'm clearly I'm on the Mike Commodore track but I got a feeling that the people in that room and with that coaching staff as tight as they are they're not saying go have a beer I don't

think the coaches are telling than that I agree and maybe 12 games in again I disagree though I 100% I'm disagree, but... Yeah, I'm with you. I think they should. I don't think they will. Retro, I have no doubt that captain is grabbing guys by the scruff of the neck and saying, boys, we're going.

Let's go. We're going to... You know what? Morgan Wallens. If he says, go or not go, he's the leader, you got to... That's the man you follow. I think he's probably delegating, like, good leaders do.

Weigs, take the rowdies. I'm going to better. I'm getting keep numbers of my eyes. I need to rest up. Yeah, everyone's got their job. Yeah, I mean, Cadre, Hubert O Frost, that liked it. Caudry's got three goals in his last four.

Hubert O points in three straight. Frost is points in four straight. Good. Give me a other. I mean, it's their three best players. So stands the reason. And they've got two victories to show for it. It's their two best centers and their best winger.

a lot. And I'm not joking. It's true. It's like, oh, so you're spending, uh, 22 million on this line. I hope it does score some goals. I got looking at the, I had the computer. I was like, Jesus, what, what's the fate? I think they showed it on the broadcast. Face offs were like 65%. It was like, holy cow, they are getting just absolutely snot bubbled. Oh, how's, how's our eager doing in the dot? over six. Well, that'll that'll get you to the 66.34

deficit in the draw department. You've got an invader in the back there. What was that? Oh. Saying goodbye before Dean goes to Nashville. That's right. I'm sure that was your son. And then I saw the painted fingernails.

That's not your son. Night daddy. Good night, dad. That's why you never stayed down. Weird for her to do that on a Friday morning show. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're off to Nashville.

Babe, why aren't you in school? Babe, all right, so it's Thursday night. We're taking, yeah, all right. Because we got it to Nashville. You're welcome for doing a show. You're welcome. I just talk to Gould for an hour and I get to do it all over again.

About that game. I get to talk about it twice and a three-hour span. We should just talk about Gould because that's more interesting. You get Gold Senior now. You just said, junior. Investment. That's why we're here. and tell you about our great sponsors. Investmed, invest dashmed.c.cad.c. Design for people.

Maybe you've got some concerns or maybe you just want to take care of your long-term health. Think I'm close to retirement age. I'm getting towards retirement age. You'd hate to get this far and then all of a sudden have some medical issues. Now you can't travel. You can't do the things that you love to do. Well, come on now. InvestMed is where they come in. A physician, a little one-hour consultation, $199,000. You walk through your, kind of your health history. Okay, well, this is something we should look at. We're probably good there. Then you get into the comprehensive proactive screening battery,

potential health risks and mitigation of those life-ending diseases before they start or before they get, you know, untreatable. And if something comes up, you work at it together. They don't just, yeah, you've got some rust on your understanding. undercarriage here. Go get that looked at it. No, no. They're going to work out with you.

Mitigate your risk for developing a serious illness and feel good about feeling good as you get older. Invest dashmedd.ca. Calgary, proud Canadian company. Right here in our city. Best to do it before you have concerns. Yeah, yeah. Before the little things that we can get ahead of turn into the big things that you can't get. I said it the other day where it's kind of like there are stages in life.

Yeah. 20 is something and 30 is different and then 40 is, ooh, and 50. It's birthday's going to change again. And it's weird. You hear that. There's certain things you hear, oh, kids, you know, they grow up so fast.

Oh, well, growing old stuff. Yeah. As you then become the person walking that path, you, yeah, 40 feels different than 30. Oh, 50. 50's a number. All right. There's some things that.

I had lots of things I want to do. still. I get this bucket list. Yeah. How do I make sure I stay healthy longer? Yeah. I want to keep doing podcasts. I don't make sure my health is in good order. If I want to be doing this when I'm 70, 80 years old. Wow, you've got that DNR rule. So you want to stay away for yourself.

You bastards. Get out of here. Get out of here. You're taking responsibility for your health and well-being. I'll invest med. Invest.d.commed.ca is a website. go and check that out. I'm going to sell everyone on this trip that when they get home from. Yeah.

Yeah. Go check. Let's, let's, that was fun. Now let's make sure we can do it again in 10 years. Yeah, that's right.

Get on the good health path. I saw something the other day. I'll see. You guys could talk amongst yourselves here if I, I'm worried about this. No, it's not bad. It's not bad.

It's the other day and it hasn't made it on a show yet. Well, I'm a forgetful guy is what it comes. Friday. morning and he hasn't done it yet. I forget certain. Yeah. I'll have it on the Friday morning show. Right.

What it comes down to is. Anything else from this hockey game, you guys are done or no? It was so bad. The power play actually scored twice. The problem is it gave up a shorty in the middle, but they hadn't done that all year. But weren't they against a real good

power or a penalty killing unit? I think they were against a good power play unit. Oh, well, either way they. Special teams is not a unmitigated disaster tonight. There's been a lot of nights in the first nine games or he said that. Salomberg line good?

Not after the beating they took. On yesterday. But we're not wrong. It's harsh, but fair. I hope so, yeah. If you want an energy line, we'll be a good team before you worry about getting energy lines.

if you have enough goals and you're winning, it's like, oh, now what we could use is to have a little bit of piss and vinegar in our game. I'm dreaming of a time when this team is very good, and they're spending a lot of money on star players because they've got so many. And it's like, hey,

we can't afford middle six wingers just hanging out on the fourth line. Let's take some league minimum bangers and crashers, and that can be the identity of the fourth one. Yeah, and I don't even care about the money. I just, I want the coaches to go, our top three are so stacked.

have the ice time to give to other guys that should have we need some we'll get some guys who can push piles if we need them we use them and then you flip it over and it feels really unfair to say hey longberg your costing this team wins sure isn't if it wasn't who is the guy in edmonton wasn't it bob nicholson said boy you know if toby reader yeah had a goal it would really be like jeez poor to buy Reader taking a stray. It does feel like maybe Longberg's taken a bit of some stray

bullets here. If it feels that way, it's not intended that way. It is not a shot at Longberg or anything he brings because you could put him back on the Florida Panthers and you would instantly be praising him. His game doesn't change. He goes about it the same way. It's that the need for this is not

And again, he wins a cup there. He played eight of their probably 20 some playoff games. Don't care. I'm not getting a shot at Lombard. So when you're good, he's a 13th forward that you love having in your lineup. But it's just you've got so many good players above them. You're going to swap him in when there's an injury or okay, there's a matchup where he could work.

This team's not there. And the other problem that Malamberg has in this lineup is that they can't score. Yes, there's been a short run here where it's been much better. Way to go. Awesome. But they can't score. And so to put Lomberg in to bring. energy, but you still can't score.

Well, you know, that it's that tilty thing. Look at my camera. I see it. It's trying to see. It's so what the flames lines are like. They're uneven. They're changing every day. Left and right, up and down. Igor, you're in the middle. Igor, you're a scratch. Igor left wing.

Igor right. So Longwood is Longburg. Longberg is a wonderful Longberg, and we love Lomburg. And I got a Lomberg jersey, but Lomburg is just Lomburg. What you've got

Opsicle's back. Another way. Pospicil coming back would be wonderful if he's Pospicil. Yeah. My concern is that Pospicil, this is getting real lame, but Pospicil is not Pospicil anymore, right?

Well, yeah, it's his rookie year. Remember, they got off to a dreadful start. It was Huska's first year's head coach. They went out dressed like Dexie's Midnight Runners in Edmonton and got pumped in that outdoor game and then they bring up zary posspso put them both with cadre it's codry and the kids that gave them some life and they got back to like a respectable level of play but pospacil was an entire

shit had a whole year you had multiple conversations with george peros and aren't one of player safety and you know rightfully or wrongfully that has made him a little more cautious about finding out where that edge is because he's got to play on it I was kind of curious about, because I did not watch him before he got drafted. But I'm betting he got drafted as much for this guy is a cantankerous, a hole as it is, oh, he's a big strong power forward who can score some goals. So Luke Strand. That's because he found, he made trouble.

Luke Strand had him in, I think, Sue City in the USHL. and he said it's one of my favorite players I've ever coached. And this guy that's coached a million levels, bunch kids, whatever. He's running Minnesota State right now. We had him to show the summer. And he said, I didn't have him a lot because he's either hurt or suspended. But every time he was out there, he was stirring shit up, completely throwing the other team off their game plan.

That's him at his best. That's what we saw the rookie year. Unfortunately, a little less the last couple of years, but that's what you want to see when he comes back. And guess what if he is in that? He gets the Zeri, Igor, Coronado Popcorn Treater. Yeah. And that extension I don't really get either.

We don't know what the conversations are behind closed doors, but with a young player like that, and we've talked a lot about it. It seemed, maybe Huska seemed to come out and say, you know, guy took a bad penalty. You can't be doing that.

And then, you know, it's gone south. You know, so you get, you're on a conference call or whatever with whatever, Bill Daly. I don't know, who with the league is going to be disciplined.

George, George, we're going to, you know, we're here with Marty and he's, learned his lesson. You hang up the phone. You hang up the phone.

You turn to Marty and be like, don't fucking worry about what that just you will pay fines. Don't fucking worry. You're Rafi Torres, your Sean Avery, your Alex Burroughs of the world, let them be them. Don't rain that in.

Because without that, what is he? Remember when Furland had that amazing run in the playoffs? Yeah, and then over the summer, and then he came back, he goes, I have to learn how to brain it in,

basically yeah i nearly fainted i'm like what yeah yeah yeah i mean some of those were charges that don't get called in the place don't care but like literally you went from fourth liner to like bxas calling you furclan you're becoming a folk hero like hello he was part of tilting that entire series yes and not everyone like so few guys have that ability even if they choose to do it correct he did and you know that's possible possible possible kind of has that in them too. But the rest of the team has to go also

when the team's, yeah, I'll pay your fines, you keep it up. And the other rest of the team has to go, we're going to kill these penalties for you, bud. Don't worry about it. You be you. They sure don't have much. I mean, they lost a lot of it, obviously, when Cachuk left, because he was that guy.

And if Pospisal's not playing that way, you just look around like, what line? Rasmus has got some stink, but not Kevin Ball's a Kevin Ball is a gentleman You know, Hanley is a gentleman Well, the captain's a gentleman

I think Blake Coleman's at a point in his life Where it's like, ah, I've You'll play honestly hard Honest and hard, but you need some pricks as your point. Yes. I'm saying it. The lineup goes on the other team's wall And Klapka, keep your gloves on.

I appreciate you. But don't fight anymore. You got to go. through the learning curve, Dino. You got to go. It's okay. You got to live it. It's hard to watch it.

It's fat. Curtis Foth. Curtis Foth. Central Butte, Saskatch run. A little puke. All of us, junior hockey, all of a sudden he's showing up and trying to fight

and getting his just ass whooped. Yeah. And then a couple of years ago, I saw the ice gladiators or whatever, some special. Yeah, yeah. He's still fighting out in the minors. Just mucking her out.

You got to lose. a few, Dino? Jake Bean? He's got in that part town. No, gentlemen. Beaner, bean salad? Are we finding Hansik? Are we finding Grissel?

Coronado? No. It's a new game, Dino. Fair be fought in the preseason. He's been good, but no. I mean, Paha. Yeah. But he never plays.

Yeah, apparently not. We liked him last year, I thought. Dude, I still like him. They just have four righties. If they're refusing to put Uighur on his left, this is what happens. It's either him or correct that comes out. Yeah. And I don't like that.

You could just slide Wigger to the left, which the coach seems to think is a bigger issue than Wigger does because he's played more left than right in his career, like literally the left side of Aaron Eckblad in Florida, his whole time there. And then literally the left side the whole time before they traded Hannafin, and Tannam, because they're both right. He's like, what are we talking about here?

He can play the left, sliding one up the right, keep Pahal and Parek in the lineup, bean salad, go to the cafeteria. Do you know why I'm laughing? Because there is nothing this team can do that we...

Well, just not going to crush him for it. I love... Like, I love Lomburg. Yeah, get him out of the... Yeah, you go. You can sit. Oh, man. These are last place problems. We're not trying to be doing.

We love Huska. One of the nicest guys. You're last. You run into Husk at the rink. You have a great conversation. You want to give him a hug and a high five when you walk away. You're last on this short. What are you thinking?

You listen, coach. This is sleeping old school shit. You should check that. Dumpkin, you beat. You've got these deck chairs. Totally in the wrong spot here on the Titanic. I can't believe you've got these deck chairs where they are. He's on a flight to National go, get me off this plane.

Backland raises tens of thousands for charity, nicest guy in the world. This fucking guy. What a dead is. I see. I just hope it's clear to the people that make decisions as it is to us. I'm telling you, this is so hard. People don't understand how hard this is. It's hard for you.

You think it's just a bunch of jack- is sitting around and flapping their gums. No, no. There's a method to this. We're smart. We collectively have been in and around the game for a long time. We're very wise. I'm trying to think about that.

This is a slippery one. Yeah. Homer and the Simpsons gets punished and he has to like, he's got like a cuff around his neck with a huge like 100 kilogram rock and he just has to drag it around. Like, nothing's doing like, like yeah, that's, that's Huska right now. Like he's got this roster. He needs to do the Bobby the Brain Heen and come to the rink with a neck brace on so people

have some, ah, I can't rip on him. Poor guy's got a neck brace on. Well, you know, Hoska's doing his best out there. Yes, yes. Giving him neck pain. Sharon Govich, you know, don't, who cares faceoffs? What's the big deal? You keep them at centers.

He's good. That's what they need to do. Start currying favor with this. The real challenge is that they are going to tear this down a bit. They are a bit. And we'll see how much and we'll see where the standings are. But like it's just going to take months before that happens, plural. And that's the challenge is like, I believe they'll do a lot of the right things.

It's just the three months between now and then are it's going to be like, what are we doing here? But if you want to get your good returns on your Rasmus deal on your theoretical Hanley, Fairby, Coleman, cadre, whoever else you can move out because you got way too many fucking wingers. Like you're not going to get good prices on them until you're into the second half of the year and injuries crop up and teams are like, we're in. We need to add.

No one's saying we need to add right now. Like who's out there saying we got to get a winger. We're a fairbie away. Who's saying that right now? Canucks are injured. Yeah, they need a center. You know, the Philippa gets concussions all the time. Poor bastard.

They could use another center. It's kind of like you're making a pizza. It's like, all right. Here's our dough and we've got to put some stuff on this pizza. Ah, here's some pepperoni. What else we got? Some more pepperoni. Oh, okay.

Well, great. Double. We've kind of got a lot of pepperoni. Okay, so that's good. Like, but what else?

I think there's a whole bunch of bowls of talk. How about some pepperoni? Jesus. Do you have any cheese? Is this all we've got here is? Like, it's just, we're making beats.

Come on. Well, you could put some pepperoni on top of the cheese. Yeah, I understand, but at some point, you don't need any more pepperoni. They're full.

pizza. Gould was talking about he's like, you got Coronado and Zeri and Sherigovich and Farabia. You're like double stacked on depth guys that are all kind of, if you had one of each, that'd be great. But you have like seven of them.

And it's true. I'm telling you, that's why you got to bring the fun back into it. I've decided that perhaps it's not a bingo thing. Okay. Perhaps it's a spinning wheel and a dart. And the player gets to throw the dart in or and it's in or out, in or out, in or out, in or out, all the way around. Or something of that nature, center, winger, D, right?

And whatever you hit, that's what you're playing that. Lomburg's on D. Boy, he tried. He's the best Lomburg you can be. It would be so awesome. You'd be the talk of the league. Oh, yeah, in a good way, I'm sure. Look at these guys.

You do it live. You do it a Twitter feed. and on Instagram and TikTok. This is like Barstool after dark. I loved it. When I was working in Red Daird, it would happen if the team was playing like shit. You'd start the third period. It's like, okay, there's D-Man, D-Man, D-Man, D-man, okay, so it's all D-Men.

One's playing center, one's a couple on the wing is just, I don't know what the next shift's going to look like, but, okay, good, here we go. And that was not out of fun. That was something a little different. Their message being sent, perhaps. Here's the thing. We are clearly established as people that think this team needs to get bad before it gets competitive. I think in training camp, this room, this organization thought, no, they're like 96 points last year.

Why would we tear down? And I think the vast majority, in fact, I'm having a very difficult time finding fans that are like, no, no, no, no. They're turning this around. It seems like we have consensus. And with that in mind, may I direct your attention to nationgear.ca. You never have merch. Absumbed. Have we finally got merch?

I think we might have merch. Jack, are you eating? Jack said before we started that he ordered food so long ago. Jack's just hammering pad tie on the front step. And it's locked himself out. Yeah, he locked himself. He's on the front step, banging on his own. Lord's door.

Taking a dump. I was getting my food. What I missed? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Did I leave it the absolute wrong time? I get a WhatsApp message. Ryan, bring this up now. Like 1% battery.

It's trying to die on me. And he had a big message. I got to read it. He had a big buildup. Oh, a big soliloquay. He led up to it. It was very barn burner. Yeah.

It was kind of like our first episode. The intention was great. Rob, Ray, what about this firing? The hell you're talking about? What are you talking about? And with that, let me direct your attention to nationgear.c.curtains. Showtime. I got it.

Good again, Ryan. Tees up. But what do you think people are thinking out there? They're like, fans figure this is all going to just work itself out. You need some hope to cling to. And maybe it's not even someone on this roster. Maybe it's not even someone in this organization. Maybe the hope out there is that this franchise that can't seem to get a bounce or any luck ever, this could be our year.

Let us introduce to you, the Mission McKenna T-shirts. Nice, buddy. I believe we have multiple colors as well. Red one and a white one. Well, there you go. We did it. Wear them loud and proud. Let people know where you're at.

Okay, they are. Black and red. And if you weren't convinced that we, the biggest assholes, go on. No, this cements it. We love a lot of these guys, but we're fawning over someone that doesn't even have a home in the NHL yet. Wouldn't it be amazing if an offensively gifted mega stud came to a team

that were celebrating a three and a half goal rate over four games? Where is that young man from? He, I believe, is from, uh, is you know, Whitehorse as well? This is from the Yukon, Dean. We don't want to get lost down in that deep old America. No, it's a terrible. A Flames fan played his junior in medicine hats.

Yes, we've got, we don't want me being bamboozled or then damn Yankees. And just in case any lawyers are watching, we went to the phone book. There's lots of McKenna. This could really be anyone. He might be. Yeah, this could be anybody. Josh McHenna. What a wrestler.

There's a girl in my kid's school. Her name is McKenna. I mean, there you are. you don't know what we're talking, huh? Give me any McCall. But if you'd like the shirt, you're available at Navy Geard Outs. I wish I could have got one for the trip.

I know. Well, that was good. Not sure how I feel about it. Did we wear our Barner t-shirts or afterburn? So the chicks know who we are. Yeah. What are you dressed up as a fat loser? My costume.

Jackal like this. The Oilers people, they do lots of tricks. And our company was starting them. And they do things a certain way there. And they just sort of assume that whatever is cool in Eminton's clearly the vibe. And they're like, and then you can head out these stickers and put them on places. And they say Flames Nation and you'll even see some Oilers Nation stickers are out.

Yeah, they're very proud. If you go into that bar, you'll look at the back. There's an Oilers Nation sticker up there. Okay. Cool. Way to go, guys. I'll put my sticker on your sticker. you've got to go back.

What's the dick? Come on. Nice. Wow. Great. We'll get those stickers going. I got them. They're packed in my bag.

Yeah, that's why he needs to carry on. You got fucking stickers. Ten kilograms. Well, you guys remember we went to a, or Phoenix. Isn't that the last, what was the last year? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Two years ago.

The Mullet Arena. Oh. I still got those. still in it their original Packeting. Not been open day. You haven't found a place in three years. I forgot to give all those away.

I could have put up in. I could start sticking them on cars. Hmm. No? You got to go to cool places. Then people see them driving around. Hey, babe. Would you like a Barnberg sticker?

I'm one of the losers on the bottom there. Why are we just assholes? That's all we can do. I'm going to be sticking them on some. Patriots at the bar. You're a burn, it'll be like the sandwich meat at the old dances back home.

So what's on my shoulder? Oh, fuck. To me, that's a compliment. That's it. You're a burn burner. Yeah. And thank you all involved for setting up today. So these guys in Calgary,

we'll do something nice. We'll get some stickers made and we'll send them to them so they could take them on the trip. And what do they do? They go on their show and make fun. Just absolutely carve us. If we would have done absolutely nothing,

we'd have been better off than actually going to the effort of trying to do something. That's correct. Hey, you know what you were buying. What forest say? Stupid is. It's stupid does or something. Yeah, something like that.

It's time for the Pinda report. We do it for Village Honda. Our good friends in the Northwest Auto Mall and online at VillageHonda.com. It is the 2025, demo clear out right now. We're talking low kilometer vehicles.

Brand spanking new. Take it for around the block. Go. Can bring it back. Clean it up again. How many times this carbon wash? It's beautiful. Peckable.

Saving thousands of dollars. D thousands. Check it out. Villagonda.com. dealership for life. Flames Nation. Pike is on the road. Rett, if you thought Pike was working

last week, you don't even know. Mike will be at the pub in Nashville. Look at this. I got Golden Pike already. Some articles up. Our Yigur 2. From last night, yeah. Why wouldn't they be up by now?

That's true. I don't even know what time zone is over there. Gain a point is one way to frame losing a 3-2 lead with five minutes left in the third. Are Yegor, 200? Congrats. Oh, boy, Igor. Actually, liked him tonight.

I didn't see the face-off staff. It's a little. Last night. Yeah, last night. Either way. No, I liked him tonight because he's going to be getting to bed early for the game. So it's tomorrow. That's what you liked him.

So whenever that was. His game against the senators. Hmm. What was that? But he even ran into a few bodies. He said he didn't hear BX in or doesn't pay attention. Playing in the right way. Who's the jerk that's asking about that?

Sheesh. Asking about. So did you say on Hocken-on-Han-Kin-A-Ked? What do you think, Kevin B-X is, uh, shit-talking you there? I don't know who it is that I'm not trying to sling her. I don't know he's. is there a chance of the same person? Like, so, Dustin Wohl, if you made 48 saves,

you'll have one and you lost one nothing. What can we do about this offense? I've just, I've envisioned being in the scrub, because when you're in the scrub and you're a reporter, you just kind of get looking at the person, you just zone out. And you don't look at the people who are asking questions. I would do a spit take if I,

hey, I don't know, Kevin B.X, I'm a shit talking you there on hockey. Hey, Igor, how's your end? Did you hear him shit talking in English? Shit talking. That would be so great. Maybe we could get or maybe we could get on them. Maybe we could get passes, media passes to go down after game in Nashville, do some interviews.

Yeah. Hey, the Euler station honks would be real impressed by that way. Yeah. Do you see those guys? There's a breathalyzer to get in. We're not getting in there. So I'm not too worried with that. I told you about the multiple power play goals.

Pike confirms first time this year. year multiple power play goals it can happen look how happy isn't that's that after phone pike well the problem with pike he even has a recap video from last night on his way out of the uh can't in the he's in ontario reporting live on the streets what in the that's his he was walking through the go train station after the game against Toronto, whatever night. He does a, it's a post game walk and chat. Have you never seen him do his walk and chat after games?

They're on the YouTube's, Rhett. What if you walk into the street? Oh, he's a pro at walking. Oh, he's good. He's done of his whole life. Well versed. Here's the schedule. Last night was the first three and four.

Yep. The third and fourth come tomorrow and Sunday, as it is the Preds. Matt and nay. Nope, the start time. and the flyers. The big bad flyers. Garnet Hathaway, Dan Bedard, Morgan Frost,

Joel Farabee, Gritty, Harvey, Greg McTamish. Will they do a Farabee Frost montage? Oh, yeah. I do wonder if they got back there last year. That's a,

it would say yes unless they did it last year, but that trade wasn't until I want to say like, what, February? Yeah. And they might have been out early. I don't remember. so I apologize. God damn a pender.

Remember Walker Dure? I said his name wrong. I apologize. Remember how we say his name? Rocking Dure. Rocker is cutting his teeth down in Tucson. Here is the Tucson Arena,

empty netter. Let's pluck it away. Oh, God. What? He missed the wide open net. Please don't go score. Walker's playing for the moose, eh? The MD.

Not for long. Especially the worst-in-rest. Thank you. Yeah. Sorry, I forgot my white shirt today, your boys. Not for long. Let's get some action from last night

in the NHL, shall we? Well, I love last night's games. Welcome to a thousand club, Tyler. That's right. Only two jerseys, I guess. Yeah. It's a lot of years. A lot of injuries piled up. Pretty been pretty good last couple of years.

What if you got him as a second overall pick? You'd be happy. Does Taylor Hall played a thousand? I would think so. Prove it. Jack? Prove it. So, yeah, that's another one of those things.

Don't ask a question that you know your co-hosts can't answer. That's what Jack's for. Because it puts everyone in an awkward position. I'm just trying to think because, like, Sagan missed a lot of of time with injury and I don't I think Taylor's been rather durable. Am I crazy saying that? So I assume he's hit the milestones since Sagan's just hitting it now. But you don't know.

I'm guessing. We're playing the guessing game while Jack Googles. If he even knows who Taylor. Oh, he's eating. He's played 909. Oh, he's way back. Did Taylor miss time? What the hell happened to Taylor?

Yeah, he got conked. Oh, all right. And then woke up and then woke up as a buffalo saber. I've had a thousand beers since then. No wonder I thought he played a thousand games. Boy, our hearts went out to this player when he told us about his seasonally affected disorder. The weather in California didn't like it. Now he's in Philly and look at Trevor Zegrasco.

11 points in 10 games. He's the first flyer skater with 10 points or 10 games since JVR. 15, 16 years ago. Wow. Is this going to be one of those things where we talked about? why don't they get Zegris? You could get Zegris. Why don't you get Zegris?

And then he's going to be a good player. Could. And we laugh, but maybe he's the one guy on earth that doesn't like California's weather because he really did blame that. It's distracting, Ryan. Have you ever had to go to the rink when your team is shit? I will say this. There were a lot of distractions in L.A.

Maybe he can not be as distracted in Philly. So far, so good. The Whales rib was the exact opposite direction from the arena. Yeah, that's tough, eh? But yet, it called your name. God, he looks taller and older and meaner there. Doesn't look like a wimpy little. I worry that Zegris, he was lights up when he first went to Anaheim.

Yeah, he was really good. You're like when there's a little fire under his ass somewhere new and... It's got talk. Talk's preaching. Might be good. Three or four years from now. Comfortable. Now, if you like that walker to her empty net, rat,

let me take you to last night's shootout between can I interrupt you I don't like the walker doer emptying that and I don't like that walker doer is a perfect example of what we were talking about earlier if you just played with some piss and vinegar guess what you'd be in the NHL and then you went and topped it off and get married oh dear sorry mrs doer I'm sure you're wondering I think probably the lack of piss and vinegar in the game is well more why he's in Winnipeg playing for the HL team. Let's go to the blues and the caducks in the shootout, shall we? Maybe his wife, I don't know.

No one scored yet, round three. Is this Paran? Oh, Oh, Bringsha. Shendog. Shendog.

He lost the handle on it. He was just falling in love with those Sast two blades colors. He was enamored, Rhett. And he was a blade. He was a bladler. That'll have to the best of the best of the state.

That's why I scored on my breakway. I didn't, on a penalty shot. So if we're going to play the joke the same way, I'm going to say, he plays for the blues, right? Not for long.

Not for long. It is game six of the World Series tonight in Toronto. Can't wait for the night's game. Toronto. Oh, Kevin Gossman. You're going to start. There are the trophies.

Well, they get a third trophy. Can you go three for three in three World Series appearances? That is the task placed at the James, No, you go three for three. We need to do these shows always this early in the morning. We're very punchy this time of morning. I wonder what it would be like to go three for three.

He'll start opposite Yamamoto is coming up back-to-back, complete games in the playoffs. That's insane. John Schneider's fired up. If you thought the Rogers Center was insane for the Yankees series. Was it, Ryan? You're there? No, isn't you know.

Or the beginning of the World Series. Well, I would expect another level. I can't wait to see what this place is like tomorrow. That, of course, was way back on Thursday, Red. Yeah. You kind of want to start the game right now. I get it, Jenny. They got two cuts doing a World Series.

Don't drag it out. Place. What kind of plane do these guys fly home? A nice charter. An Ali Alejandro. Corp. You know what? You might get a trophy somewhere.

you might get a street named after you're somewhere else, but in Tijuana, you get a underpass spray painted with your mug. How good is that? Kirkie. Yeah. National treasure. Made it. Tijuana's finest.

Good stuff. George Springer may be available tonight for the contest. Hmm. Here's some reporting from Jay's people. Mike? Look, he was very much employed. He's in Ontario. He's in Ontario.

Five. and has passed all the physical tests so far, might be Deachian. So that's a good. To stay tuned for the lineup. Does put an interesting spot because Bo Deachene is gone. You're comfy with Bow staying in second. You're going to pinch around for him again.

Keep Bow in. Remember that 18-80-in game? Could have used a bow. Could have used a bow. Could use the bow. That's a big one. 608 Mountain. We'll be in Nashville.

Later, three or four sports bars later today, depending on which one emails us back and says, yes, because they don't know who we are. They knew this. We promise not to put stickers on your recliners in your VIP sports section. Just kidding.

Thursday, would any bunch of jack and apes have these? This is what you're dealing with. That's not us, sir. That must have been some other guys. The final from the Ravens and the Dolphins last night in Miami.

Not even close. Stupid Boomer wouldn't let us do picks yesterday. I wanted to take the Ravens. We all took them anyway. We talked about it on the show yesterday. Jack can't take the Ravens. No, but he definitely knew they were going to pound the fish. Yeah.

Lamar's back. Jack, how are we feeling? Not great, Ryan. Four touchdown passes. That's a few. Really? Probably more than Cooper Rush and Snoop Huntley combined for a month. By a lot.

I love that you went to get food from the door at the exact and only moment that Ryan called for something outside of the Pinder report. I got to go back and watch that. That's hilarious. What did you order? Um, Opa. I got a Peter wrap and French fries. Yeah.

Delicious. Pretty good. Chinese. No. What? Grine back to you. Love Indian food. I love chops to me.

Get me pecorah with that? Awesome. Bye week for the Bucks, you know what that means? Nope, but now you do. Baker Mayfield in the house last night for the Tampa Bay Lightning. Cool. We love Baker, so there's a good excuse.

Don't know as much about Tristan Morf, but he looks like a huge, strong man. Football play. Ew. It's got a Stanley Cup emblem on an intrusion. Ew. Oh, rat. Shoot.

That's the year. Tristan. Look at the logo. I guess it's the year. That is the year. Stam Peters in action tomorrow 5.30 at British Columbia. You want to get pumped up? Watch this.

Experts can't play football. It's all about the Calgary Stam Peters. It's all about playing the best three plays of football for us. And right now we're just prepared. We know it's at stake. We know it's when to go home. So we're ready to play some football come Saturday. A lot of that's going to be with the noise.

Can we handle that? Can we stay on side? Can we still play fast? If we do those type of things, We've got a good team too. I mean, we'll go out there and compete. 5.30. PC place.

Hippies. Hockey sacks. People with joints over their ears. And by the way, Stan Peters all CFL team members. Congrats, fellas. Zach Williams. Jalen Hutchins,

Clarence Hicks, and some other guys. Hixie. That also is fun to mock Vassett. He's got a real boot on them. And I have it on pretty good authority. Mm-hmm. The BC Lions are a bunch of nervous Nellies right now.

Oh, I've heard they were shaking in their boots yesterday. They, yep. Also on very good authority. All right. Good. Good to hear. Hey, Jack, come back to me. Go get them, boys.

Go get them boys. Just like, you know what? It's like, oh, we got the stampeters coming in. Well, how do against them this year? Oh, we put up a 50 burger one game. It was no problem. Perfect. Good.

Keep thinking that. Hey, Dean, that's the way we like it. It's just the way we like it. I like that the Stamps TV, they're doing a good job with this stuff. I don't. I almost want to go play myself. Put on a helmet and get out there and start. You missed the beginning.

It says experts don't play. You'll have Ryan tackle you in Nashville. He's good at that. He is. Watch your ribs. Ribs. Not the only Calgary team with a playoff game this weekend. Cowberry FC.

In the hammer. To face, Stinking Forge. Get hyped up. Sunday, the Canadian Premier League playoffs. Forge stumbled against Athlete, but still chasing destiny. Cavalry, dismantled York United, charging up the mouth. They've met before in the play. off fire. And here they stand

Well, it's the guy that used to do our stuff. Yes. Yeah. PTSD. I thought I recognized. Yeah. I think they'll have that on at the bar? Calvary?

Yeah. Shit, yeah. Homer and the guys are talking sports. It's Boomer. Boomer and the guys are talking sports. Music we threw up with. Grew up with. Music we grew up with.

And now time. It's for the artist of the day. Stop it, you guys. There's no one untouchable. Everyone's taking it. Clean it up. F, I'm old. Dude.

Ali Moosey, third year in a row, he's been voted by his counterparts. The players. Nominated for the player of the year. Congrats to him. It's the player's nominee. None of the experts. They don't play. They don't play.

And the manager of the month for the month of October happens to be the guy with the nicest hair in the CPL. Oh, Tommy. God. You must be going to invest, Matt. He is aging gracefully. Look at this guy. He's getting younger. Who.

How about Tommy? Go get them, boys. two o'clock sunday stinking hamilton it's a big weekend it is teams wearing red in the playoffs who knew teams hate each other yeah they do hate forge sticking forge beat him in the final last year i had to say see you jack that's like all the ones yeah finally we remember the pizza mcdonald's jack's too young for that the mic pizza yeah oh yeah i think the ms were like the zeds God, it was a really good marketing, yeah.

And we don't endorse this, and it may be AI, but let's have a look. AI. Is it? I don't know. Well, when in the wrong? It definitely battered up pretty quickly. quick. Well, it popped in the wrong friar.

Like it goes down and comes out the other. Oh, don't like that other way. But it might be open under the under like it. That could be. Oh. Either way, we can stop watching it. Yeah, the Mick Rats probably not real. That's it for your pinned report on this.

It's Friday, Dean. For our friends at Philadelphia, Honda. It's too early for these types of videos. That's right. I was going to say, didn't last year we had this rat? phase for like a solid month. Yeah, we were in India a lot where there's a lot of rats hanging out, people making food.

It's not a great combo. Food and rats, no. It's like what comes up in your algorithm doesn't have to come on the Pinder report. I used to have like eight of these things. We're down to one, all right? You're welcome. Thanks. I could have shown you someone getting their leg.

No, I've got an alligator. Real good. Thanks. We have a plane to catch. We don't have that kind of time. In stock inventory, lots of new stuff on the lot. not to mention over 90 pre-owned units and all makes, on models, or budgets, they got the dealer group.

Access to over 500 vehicles. All your automotive adventures begin at Village Honda in the Northwest Automall and online at VillageHonda.com. It's your dealership for life. I wanted to tell you just a little bit more because we brought up the other day and I just wanted to tell you about Temple Golden Logger, which again, we're talking, we're going to Nashville, we're going to have a good time. it would be good to have, you know, a little spacer, the weekends coming up.

Never a bad idea, a non-alcoholic beer that actually tastes like a beer. With Temple Golden Logger, you get all the experience with none of the alcohol, whether you're abstaining or simply pacing yourself, don't sacrifice on the joy of raising a cold one with friends. It's a big, maybe the Blue Jays are going to have a big weekend. You want to toast and celebrate and have a good time. Nervous Nellie. It's only the third inning. It's where Temple comes in. quality ingredients and time-honored flavors to create a non-alcoholic, proudly Canadian, soon to be classic.

Consume without compromise, available now at liquor stores in Calgary and online at drinktempel.com. That's T-E-M-P-L drink-temple.com. Even at this early hour, Dean, no guilt. It's fine. No judging. So there you have it. What does it taste like? It's golden lager, Dean.

Golden logger. Yeah. And I know you would have just brushed your teeth being it's morning. So is it, uh, does it taste funny? No. Good. Temple. And they have it in a bunch of places.

I was on the website. Because I did a bar today. They're looking for a non-alcan I said, I know a guy. And then maybe you drink it up. They're all over the bloody place. Yes. There are. Good job by those guys.

You don't need to have 70,000. drinks in a day. It's true. So beers, don't need the alcohol. Yeah, that is true. I better have Temple on Tabin National. So time for our football picks. Week 9.

This is our week. I can feel it, boys. Finally feeling good about things, you know. Brought you by Bet365, the official gaming partner of Barnburner and Flames Nation. We love them. You'll love them. Get them on your phone. Get the app.

Get in in the game. You must be 19 or older. Whatever your bet is, it's never ordinary. We had bet three, six, five. I said this the other day. We just like to kind of partake in this. Every week, we'll go through the sked and look at the, look at the lines and the over, under and point spread and that sort of thing.

We pick some games and I, for sure. Every time I say we, you guys, hey, speak for you. I've had a rough run considering there's two outcomes to each game. Yeah. This is like you're either on this side or you're on the other side. You're getting the points or you're giving the points. Yeah, it's, whatever it is. I've been on the wrong side a lot.

You know. There's no red out there, Dean. No red. Not yet. So we all went with four. Odd. Yeah, we didn't even talk about that. Maybe that's our new number.

We went what just organically came about. We've loved to pick with Thursday night. Jack and I have some similarities here. So, Jack, can you pull up the games boom? Because we've got all our picks. I want to make sure we know who's, playing who. I know we'll start with you because I know the Rams heavy favorites against the Saints. They're going to that Tyler

show or shug or something, the new rookie and the Rams defense, the pass rush, nasty. Puka sounds like he might be back. Big number. I'll walk you through. Here's what I'm just my thought process this week is just who's going to win? Who's good? Who's clearly better? And these are my picks. The Rams clearly better than the New Orleans Saints. Correct. Minus 14. It's a lot of points. I'm not going to they're better.

The Rams are better. Go get at Rams. The Lions. They just signed old Hutchinson. They're all fired up. They're playing the Vikings. Vikings have got McCarthy back in. They're not for lions are better.

Minus eight and a half. Better. Chargers are going to be at this game. Kind of got to take the, you know, chargers are better than the Titans. Yeah, I think so. They're better.

Nine and a half. And the Seattle Sea Hawks are better than the Washington commanders. They have one of the best. receivers in the entire NFL. And yeah, I know Jaden, he's coming back. Seahawks minus three against the commanders.

Four for four. We'll get me. It's going to be a big week. 19.25 and one is going to feel so great. God. So good. So great. Retro, what do you got there? Well, Dean, I notice a trend here. Yeah. And the trend is that usually teams at

home that are getting points are dusters. But I also know is that the bills are at home getting points. And getting points. So that can't be true. So maybe the rest of these teams that are at home getting points

aren't dusters either. Okay. And hence retro's picks. I will always take the bills. You guys don't take any of your teams because you're losers. Bills plus one and a half against the up and charge and

Chiefs. Nobody circles wagons, Dino. Nobody. Nobody does. Where are we when we're going to watch this on Sunday football? Well, some of us are going to be in Nashville. We're in Tennessee. The team in Tennessee is called the Titans, and they're getting nine and a half? Nine and a half? Are you shitting me with our inspirational speech?

Please. That's going to get the room, get the pregame. Yes. We're going to give them a, let's see the stickers. They'll be wound tight. Yeah. We're going to go out in the room. Make sure you put a sticker up in the locker room.

Yeah. Yeah. They got the Chargers. Washington, they're called the commanders in their command of their own destiny, Dean. Is that right? Three points at home? Yes. Yes, absolutely.

I don't know who they're playing. It doesn't matter. Seattle. Seattle, that's right. I hate Seattle. Yeah. Hit me stop them. Can't be cheer for Seattle.

The Steelers. Yeah. Those more. Oh, boy. Their defense. is one of the best in the league, though. I heard it. I heard it many times.

Yes. I can't say yes. Yes. Titans, yes. Bill's yes. Washington. Yes. And Jack Steelers,

absolutely yes. Wow. Those dusters that are playing at home and getting points, they're not dusters. I don't hate it. They're going to crush. I feel like he's going to go four for four. I don't know.

He made sense, but he's inspired me. I like it a lot. lot. I have no idea if those teams were at home, but I thought they were. Yeah. Help me out with the schedule, fellas. I really like the Patriots are up against a better team. I think they went five in a row. Drake May is getting MVP votes. Yeah. They're home to the Atlanta Falcons.

Falcons were dog shit last week, but dark shirt, excuse me, last week against the Miami's. I think the Pat's handle. Drake May's been great. And it sounds like they're going to start working Trevion and Henderson in a little more. I like that. Broncos, the notorious slow starters have looked better of late. They're getting a point and a half. Oh? In Houston against the Texans, no... This feels so trappish. No Certan for the Broncos.

Yeah, I guess that's a thing. And Old Watts's his name is back. The receiver, I'm drawn a blank. Nico. Nico calls it's so early. It's so early. So early. Tired, I guess.

God, you never... Third show today. Packers, it's a lot of points. It's so many points. It's the Panthers, I believe, and they are straight shirt. Packers, at home minus 13 to the Panthers. Pakistan take care of business.

And Red, I'm sorry. We're going to be in Tennessee. I'm going to be reping my number 17 baby blue Philip Rivers jersey, which will get garbage thrown in me. But I'm okay with that if my chargers cover nine and a half. They're getting a little healthier. And I just like Herbert against a bad team. Go chargers.

All right. Go chargers. Jack. You boy. I've got the Niners minus two and a half against the Giants. The Giants are without. Cam Scattenboot. He's like the heartbeat of that team. It's their spirit animal. Yeah, really is.

So I'll take them. Lions and Chargers, big favorites. The Titans are awful. I know we're going to be at that game. I kind of want a good football game, but I don't think we'll get one. Lions, who are they playing again? Minnesota. J.J. McCarthy back in the fold, I think.

And he's, yeah, I mean, he hasn't played in weeks. Yeah. Lines destroying. This Broncos, Houston, it feels like the Broncos should be favorites the way they've been before. I agree. Yeah. That's a certain thing is probably.

probably bigger than we're giving it across. It's like, what do they know? What do they know? Why is it there? They know. So I'm going to take the Broncos and I'll probably regret it on Monday. I'm with the Jack. We're going to regret a lot of things on Monday. That's what everybody's doing.

So there you go. You could take our picks. You can go. You could fade us. You can ride whatever you or just do your own thing altogether. Which probably. Player props. Player props over under.

Lamar four touchdowns. I would have paid Hansomoo last night. Colts Steelers, over under is 50 and a half. Whoa. Expecting a shootout despite having the best defense in the NFL involved in that game. So despite it being noon in Nashville, that's the morning slate we'll watch.

Jack, you and I got to find a cozy little place with the bunch of football on for the afternoon on Sunday. Yeah, we got him. I think that's the move. It's a responsible thing to do. America. Yeah. I think I'll probably be finding somewhere

cozy as well. It'll be called a bed. No, no, it'll be there'll be some guitar pickers and fiddle players with Eddie Locke. All right, well that sounds good too. We'll see you after. Yeah, it's gonna be good.

What's our night game? You have that handy by chance? I do. Is that Casey Buff or no? No, that's an afternoon. game. God, they should have flexed that. What are they doing? The evening game is Seattle, Washington. Yeah, we'll meet you at the honky tonk after that's late. And then the Monday nighter, the Cowboys

hosting the Cardinals coming off a by. Charlie, did Kyleor, Carlton, Carlum didn't play the last two weeks before the by? Correct. Cool duty tournament? Something. Oh. Yeah. Something. Like what else are you been doing for three weeks? What? What? Yeah, that's what he's been doing.

Sitting around doing nothing. Great game, Dean. Call the duty? Really into it. Yeah. You're a gamer. You're a gamer. That's going to be a banger.

It is going to be a banger. Those games are never born. Like you said on yesterday's show, though, Chiefs don't really have much of a run game right now. Pacheco's week to week. He wasn't really their guy anyway. Because the bills do have a hard time with the run game. They have a hard time with defense, Dean.

Yeah. Rashi Rice has been good since he's back, but if you can cover him, I like Josh Allen. They can't cover it. But they're the bills. Well, Welp, I guess we should get to the airport and get,

we're going to get to the airport. Did you pack your big bag, Jack? Yep. I don't know. Ready to go. Have you waited on the scale? You don't want to be charged because it's so full with stuff for four days.

Is that a thing? Oh my God. Okay. Jack, how was the show today? This morning. How's the Indian food? How's the Picora? Vindaloo.

See ya, buddies.
