That's absolutely what you wear at home.

I don't know if you wear it when you're on a show on a YouTube's. Very famous. Very serious. On this very famous podcast, what's my, it's my, it's my Nashville shirt. I got it in Nashville. So are you getting Nashville shirts? I'm excited about the growing BCE items like that I'm anticipating that. Do you want to get right?

Is that already today? Yeah, let's get right into that. Like, I'm excited. Can you fix this TV? Because I can't. This is, the monitor. Ladies and gentlemen, the spirits, the spirits are high. It's, we are, we are tracking towards,

and I realize it's only the third of December. I realize it's only the third. And we got a long way to go and things can go. March it sticks. But right now, we are tracking towards the B.C.E. Best Christmas ever. And every day, I am going to take it upon myself to have just a little something that you can incorporate into your life, into your holiday spirit, into your, you know, the lead up, the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season. Now, maybe here's, so for today, what do we, what does everybody have a Christmas?

Everybody's going to have, you know, presents. A drunk uncle. Boos. Oter hockey. Yes. Snow, shoveling. Hangovers. I hang over Christmas tree.

Oh. You're going to need a Christmas tree. You know it. I know it. Yeah. We all know it. So you can, uh, you can go down into the basement or up into the attic and haul that dusty son of a bitch out and spread out the branches and do all that sort of thing. And then the branches fall off and you curse and you swear.

Ah, that's, yeah. Or you could get, you could be like Clark W. Griswold and the Griswolds. You can go get. yourself a real tree. Do it. This, Jack,

do you have the stuff I sent you? Jack, he needs you. Don't worry about it. That's my fault. I've been, I distract him, the camera thing here.

Oh, I see. The monitor, yeah. I see. But he's back. He's back. So now he's back.

Good. So you wouldn't have heard anything I was saying? Nope. Christmas tree. Christmas trees. Clark Griswold, the Griswolds, they go to,

um. Did you go to a, there's going to be. lots in town. You can go to a store. You can find it. Or you can be like Clark W. You can throw everybody into the old wagon. You can head out to the mountains and find a Christmas tree of your own. That's right. This year, to help make it the best Christmas ever. Big old tree. Let's go out and get our own Christmas trees, man. Yes. Oh, if that's advice you can give. Let's get our own Christmas trees. I don't know if you're allowed to do that. If you go to the National

Parkstein, you might get thrown in jail for 30 years. You like it's going to be frowned upon. Man, here's a thing. That's why I thought of that. And we are law-abiding citizens. McLeod Law. We just get McLeod. We got them on our side.

Well, what you're going to need, guys? I mean, I'm here to tell you. You're going to need a TM66. TM66. There it is right there. Oh, my goodness. You just need to get your. You just need to get your.

You have TM 66 right there. Your personal use forest products permit. Wow. Dino. Issued for the removal. Issued for the removal of the following forest products. Three trees. Three. You can get three under two and a half meters tall.

That's lots. That's 10. Maximum three, right? To be cut from the Calgary area. Now when you go on there, because when you go online, you find the permit, you can do it online. It's free. and you got a month.

You see, I got till January 2nd to go get myself three trees. Oh, so late until then, deal. It's all the late, yeah. Then you crack the permits map. It gives you the maps. I'm telling you, if you just head out west towards, you know, Canamascus, you're going to be in the, you're going to be in the Calgary forest area.

And there are some particulars about the trees. I mean, it's a little bit laid out there, but there are tree rules. Oh. A permittee that holds a personal use forest products, permanent grove your eyes is cut and remove trees. Trees shall cut no more than three. Gritsmanx. Cut trees less than two and a half

meters, approximately eight feet in height. It's good height. Not cut the tops off the trees taller than two and a half meters. Don't do that. I see you working there, yeah. Some kind of shit head out there cutting to talk. Who's doing that? Don't cut trees. They have a stump width of 15 centimeters or

less and utilize all the trees. You're not just cut. I mean, you're going to use these things. You're not just chopping down to get your jollies off. Don't just leave them there. Got to use them. And if there's power lines, if, you know, acceptable. If it's safe to do so. Right. So you go online, you get yourself.

And you're going to need that on your person. Because of some forest, uh, forest, forest ranger, Mr. Ranger, sir comes up and says, hey, you got a permit. You pull that some bitch out and say, what do you mean like a TM 66? You god damn right. I do. Your God damn right. Now, why is your credit card number? I'm kidding.

I just took the address, you know. I'm famous, right? I don't have the Jamie McLennan security system in my house. How often can you do this? I would think annually. They said the window is early December to early Jan. It gives you a month from when you filed. But can you go like, you know how much fire would cost these days?

It's on there, bud. It's on there. I know. Wow. There's different, you need the separate permit. That's a TM 67? I think that, yeah, I'm not sure if it's the TM 67, but there was, you need your firewood, you're needing this, you're doing that.

And the other part is maybe you're going out there to chop down a tree. Maybe you're going out there to cobble together some of the fallen trees. You're just going to go and I'm not doing that. Not much for cobbling. Collect dead wood. I don't know. Probably not going to burn that well. Yeah, I don't know.

Deadwood? Yes. Ryan, you're out to lunch. Don't speak about things you don't know. It's got snow. Anyway. What? There you have it, folks.

We are tracking towards the best Christmas ever. So who's with me? Who's going online to get their TM66 today? Hey? Load all the kids in the in the, in the, the, the jolopy.

Grab yourself a, a nice, uh, toasty warm beverage. Head out. Dang dog, Lott. I saw it.

You know, it's out there, baby. Damn right. So I'm just looking at the list. You're cobbling here for the CB. We got the bumbo. That's right. White fudge dip Dorios. And,

We got our tree permit so we can go full. Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Hacksaw Jim Duggan out there and get the tree. You got to get going on this tree. This should be very high in your program. There's going to be a lot of people out there now, you know, promoting this. That's right.

66. Huge. You're going to be fighting crowds. Yeah. A lot of crowds. We, when we were coming on the tree. I saw it first.

We were coming back from the mountains. Did the thing through a Bragg Creek, stopped in there just, you know, got to look around. Beautiful. There were a lot of people out getting their Christmas. trees. A lot of pickup trucks with the tree angled in the back, you know, some of these. Hey, we got in our tree thing.

You could get one for Jack. I'm not sure if Jack either. Jack's going to be at Ratsh's house for Christmas anyway. He can go to my house, Jack. Do you have adoption papers as well? Not well, we're doing some paperwork. Because I feel like Jack's best self is at Ritz House. I'm trying to help Jack out. You too.

Can you adopt someone that's the age of majority? I don't need to adopt him. His dad is a wonderful human. Wow, but he's, I'm just going to take him under my wing, you know. As long as he doesn't pass me the puck, I got a curious George. Curse George?

I caught myself. Oh, no, no. Jeez. Do you want to go have a talk? You got some things going on? After the show, if we could get this over with it. Yeah. Life's not that bad, bud.

Yeah. Everything's good. We'll get, we'll get, we'll get, we'll get to that. We'll go out and get you Christmas tree. Pick up your spirits. You go do it and bring it all. over and set it up. You got one for the studio.

You got three. I told you last time I had a real Christmas tree. It didn't tackle the damn thing. It didn't go well. I would hurt like a bugger, I would think. Needles were everywhere. Yeah. Oh, and that smell, though.

That's so good. You got to water that sun again. They're thirsty when you get them, too. Sure. That's all right. We love the water every day. Otherwise, you're going to lose all those little prickles. They're going to fall right over.

Just when you're feeding your, when you're feeding and water in your dog, just put some water on your tree. Yeah, as long as the dog's hard. Dead. And then what you can do is you can just fire it out on the street And the city of Calgary, the good people, the city of Calgary sanitation department, They're going to pick that some bitch up. They probably use that one too.

The recycling then a good, yeah, they take and they throw it through the, Oh, is that your friend in the wood chipper? Yeah. That's your friend in the wood chipper there. Prouler needs a jump. Nobody knows. Three of us too. Everybody does.

He'll know. And you have a question for noodles today. Yeah, I got it written down. You're going to write it down? Johnny LaRue, we've got to figure out what the hell of the stories here. Yeah, that's right. That's right. We go to the Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating inside or hotline.

Crystal Waters, if you're an idiot and you left a step ladder against the power, can you wonder why it doesn't turn on? Maybe even spending too much time reading advanced stats and not figure out how basic items work in your home, they can help. Or they can also install a new garage heater into your garage. Furness, air conditioning. Maybe you are a, maybe you're a home builder and you need like a high volume professional mechanical subcontractors. They do it better than anybody else.

They are the very best. Crystal Waters, your crystal clear choice. Home comfort is kind of what it comes down to. And on the insider hotline with Crystal Waters, Jaby McLennon joins us. Hello, James. Hi, guys. We're doing great. This is that I'll make Christmas great.

Oh, man. Imagine you got noodles on Christmas. He's been to some of my Christmas parties. Fireside stories, making sure everyone's got their drinks topped up. Dragging me out of my hot tub. We had a team party December 18th at my house. I think it was 03. And we had a post-party pre-bar.

It was like 6 o'clock at night at a rager. Usually, yeah, but after-party, we had a pre-bar party that was out of control that spilled over to the regal beagle. Oh, dear. And to, what was the country place on 9th there? Not Cowboys, but there one. Roadhouse, no. Roadhouse.

Oh, yeah. Roadhouse. Yeah. And then spilled back to my house afterwards. There's a lot of things that happened that night. Yes. Enlighten us, right? I can't.

They're not good. Can't be discussed. Damn it. There's trouble to be had. I need the unplugged version of this. Come on. But it was fun. That was the one thing that Kenby said was that Sean Donovan went Christmas shopping that day

and showed up at Noodle's house, I believe, with this gift for his wife. Five o'clock. The party was to start at six, and he said, I got to go to Chinook and get tree a Christmas. I think your name is Treesick, correct? Yeah. I got to get tree a Christmas present. So he showed up at five o'clock. It was me, Rhett and Robin sitting at the house.

And Dono rose in at 5 p.m. and goes, I bought her a sewing machine. Oh, jeez. Oh, I mean, hockey players could be dumb, but that is next level dumb. It was awesome, though. And you know what? We, he was, we shouldn't have had that extra hour before everybody thought that. That's the problem because he was Frank the tank by the time 6 o'clock rolled around. It didn't take John along to turn into Frank.

that was good stuff so fun he made a margarita in my kitchen with no lid on it so the soup and it was not i don't think i was at that party i was doing something else and you showed up at my house and dragged me out we did i remember that what were you doing red i was i was concussed i had a and we were concerned about him so we made sure he was all right and we went and grabbed him right out of the house. Literally, fireman carried him over to our place, or to the bar, that's where it was. We went to the bar, yes.

Then the stories we cannot speak of. I'm not convinced that's not the night that we were, me and my little buddy were in the back of a cop car. Well, no, that was another night. Was it? Okay. I wasn't sure. With the keys that went down there.

Very unhappy taxi driver. We can't have to cryptic conversations without, I mean, We've told this story to a lot of people. We can't share. We can't share. Anyway, what do you got for me? We did a 12-hour live stream on Thanksgiving Thursday, and your common buddy came in and ripped a bunch of stories,

and there was a few gems in there. If you ever have 12 hours, you're not busy, which doesn't exist in your universe, it was quite something. Chester? Chester. Kelly Chesla came up. Well, Kelly Chesla came up. Yes.

He had some stories. We had a late night visit. When you are team services and you've seen some things, right? Like those guys should have to sign NDAs. See, and I did need, yeah, there was one story and I needed some clarification because I've heard it one way and he kind of remembers it a different way.

When the goaltender needed a helicopter ride in Vancouver, were you with him in the helicopter or were you at the bus? And it's like, Noodles, where's your buddy? You were in charge of your buddy. I was not on the copter, but I was responsibly on the bus, but terrified of the timing of all of that. And then how he showed up, not looking healthy. Healthy. There were some weird things going on.

Yeah. I wasn't aware he had the helicopter service as well. No, I left earlier. That's the problem. I left earlier because I was a responsible human. And, no, I, yeah, there was, that whole, that was a blur. I'll just, I just remember out of all of that, somebody got their, you know, you're going one day road trip and you bring one suit. And one of the guys decided to rip the arms off, the guy's suit.

So he goes to get on. on the bus to get on the plane and he had no suit and he came on with his dress shirt on and was firing lasers at me and I was like, what's your problem? And he's like, you ruined my suit. I said,

why would I, I go think about this and he goes, Kipper told me you ripped the arms off of my suit. I said, oh, okay. Well, hell of that. Case closed. Done. So they ripped the arms off of his suit and blamed it on me. So he owed me $1,000.

I said, that wasn't me get the right person. And then the two guys that did it were hiding at the back of the bus laughing. So anyways, that's the, you can't leave your, that's the problem with guys who are idiots. They'll, like, they leave their dress, you know, you leave your dress coat at a bar on a hook or something. something like that and guys mess with it. They don't just tie the arms anymore. Now they'll rip the arms right off. Yeah.

Jeez. You think this is still happening? Do you think? While the flames were in Nashville, they had Sunday night in Nashville. And last night, they stayed over. Well, they played like it. I was going to say they're playing guilty because if that wasn't,

it's much distant. If you're going to play that bad, you may as well get hammered. Yeah, I mean. They were gassed. Yeah. Listen. I just did Ottawa just had a seven game road trip

I think I did five of the seven games I did the Dallas game like they had nothing in the tank and I actually talked to a few of the guys after the game I ran into them at a restaurant and they were just like we don't even know what city where it's just it's every team

it's catching up the schedule I was actually talking to a GM last night and I said you know the weird part and I might have said this with you guys last week, but I know I've said it a few times and somebody from the league reached out was like, can you just dial it back a bit?

I just said, I feel like the product hasn't been very good this year. Like it's more common to watch a bad game than it is to watch a good game. We've had so much overtime. They're on pace for the most loser points ever. So you can call it parity. You can also call it mediocrity.

And you can also see teams now the scoring chance rates drop off the table in the final five minutes of their time. Both teams just play possession, dump change. I did, I did Ottawa, Montreal last night, and it was actually pretty good game. Ottawa got the better of them by the end,

but it was emotional. There were hits. They were scoring chances. There were good saves by both goalies. Like, it was a good, a good game for whatever it was. What was at, a Tuesday night in early December. Like, it was a pretty good game. But it's been rare.

I've been watching either whether it's Ottawa or other teams, their opponents, on a night where it's like that game's a dog. Like it's a dog of a game. Yeah, somebody gets two points like you said, Bender, maybe it's three points because it's just a race to overtime. But I've witnessed more games like that I feel like early on this season than I've seen in past season. Maybe I'm wrong. Can I just jump in on overtime really quick and then we can get to news the day? I think they need an over and back rule so bad for the offensive blue line. Like three on three when it came into the league was electric.

And like everything else in the league, coaches have figured it out. And now it's just huge reloads. Never lose the puck. Don't settle for a great A minus chance. It's got to be a grade A. Oh, we're changing back to our goalie behind.

Like, I don't think it's that hard. And I think it's a really quick fix to bring the pace and excitement back of three and three. It used to be trading two on ones. And now it's just one team reloading for two and a half minutes. And you get, you know what to add on that you'd get a you'd get a finish in those five minutes yeah exactly we don't

watch shootouts not more of them you know now i feel like there's i don't know have the numbers but i feel like there's been more shootouts as opposed to just goals in overtime i don't know if that's true or not or i feel like there's a formula there but you're right like the the puck possession hey we want to try a look it's not there so circle back at head out of the zone throw it back to the goalie get the change. You're right. It's been overthought and overcoached and there probably is a fix there at some point. I've got a fix.

So when I get my coaching gig, we're going to win the face off. I could have the D do a pronger and just take it back and stand behind the net, nice and calm. Just wait. I'm pulling the goalie. Oh! Four on three. Other teams not going to touch the puck. Wang.

going for it. It's not a bad. I'll tell you to break a tie. I'll tell you that. The problem that I would have with that, wreck, is some of these buildings, the ice is crappy.

So you go to make a pass and it bounces over a stick and you lose possession and the guy just wires in and they open net and you're... You got to go for it. You know what? We've whistied everything.

We're going for it. Come on. Get behind me with this. Come on. I'll be rational. I want. Listen, it's hard to be irrational, but I'm saying it's a good thought process, and I don't mind people thinking outside the box.

I just feel like that's the only thing. I was in St. Louis the other day. The ice was so, and I played in St. Louis. The ice is known as not very great. For some reason, it felt like another level of bad the other night. And it was tough. It was a dog of a game, and it was tough to have two passes in a row. and that that sucks

it's a it's maybe a boring conversation for people to hear the players are that good on that ice right like you you underestimate the the difficulty of accomplishing

these things at the best of times and then throw shitty ice on there and go oh yeah he just put that puck up no problem and get stride shot it and you know some buildings are known to have some crappy ice, whether it's the Rangers, you know, because they- Anaheim used to be awful, too.

Anaheim, we had a game one time in Anaheim where it was a seven o'clock game, and at 6.15, they still had the boards on the ice. And what had happened, they had put the boards on the ice when the ice was wet. Oh. So the boards had stuck into the ice. So they had 300 people on the ice. chipping the boards off. Just 300 workers on the ice,

chipping the boards off. And I was like, we were sitting there going we're probably not going to have a game. We started like eight minutes late. It was unbelievable. They got all of it cleared off. They had one Zamboni,

and that was it. Way we go. I was starting that night going, I don't know if we're going to play. And then we play. And I guarantee you we lost because I never felt like we had good. With the Flames, we never had any success in Anaheim.

Wasn't there a bad streak fair? 20s for a decade. Yeah. I might have contributed to that. Everyone did noodles, wasn't you? We'll ask you about a couple teams. Sure. Flames will see the wild tomorrow night.

They had a miserable October and have now won nine in a row. They're 11-0-1 in their last 12, and their two goalies are absolutely in the groove. Yeah. Gustafsson, was a horrendous deal by Ottawa. That was a Talbot for Gustafin, one for one deal.

And this Esper Walshead that they drafted high, what, three or four years ago, has finally arrived. Just thoughts on the wild through the flames we'll see tomorrow. You know, Minnesota's always had a bad rap from when I was there

as this defensive, like, boring team. And then you add in favor, you add in Boldie, you add in CapriSov, even a little Zuccarello. Like, there is some, some sneaky skill there.

They still have some guys who, you know, the Middletons and guys like that will lean on you. But that's one thing in looking at that team. They are quite structured, but they've got some skill to add to it. And that goalie, I watched that game last night, that goalie,

and I know it's funny because it's a sore spot in Edmonton because they passed on him. They could have drafted him. And, you know, we taught, you see what all the struggles of Skinner or not Skinner, all of that. This guy comes in and stands on his head, puts up a one-nothing win. And it's funny because four shutouts in six games is not sustainable.

There's going to be a market correction for him. But when you look at the actual fiber of the actual goalie, there's something there. You know what he reminds me of is Jacob Markstrom a little bit? 6-6, good feet, big. You know, when Markey was on his game, he had one big season in Calgary, did he not? Marky? Yeah.

Reminds me of that. He had two, I think, big seasons in Vancouver where he was their MVP and it might have been back-to-back years. But like, tough to beat. Like you're looking at, even if it's a grade A chance, you might not get it by this guy. He had a couple, we'll call it luckily or favorable bounces last night. But he looked like he was, they weren't going to get a pee by him.

And he looked in position, calm, handled the puck. On the penalty kill, he fired it down the middle of the ice, overcrow everybody's head. Like it was just, I was like, this guy is feeling it. But thinking of, you know, Minnesota in a back-to-back, right, is it tonight or tomorrow? Sorry. Tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow.

They are a team that they kind of got a little bit of everything. So I wouldn't sleep on them. You're right. The points in 12 straight. And the one game they lost was to Buffalo, I think it was. Wasn't it the other day? I don't remember. Yeah.

They had an overtime or shootout loss. That's it. They'd be Colorado too. It was right. Here's the crazy thing. But I should apologize for it. I watched that game. Minnesota Buffalo.

I don't know why I watched it, but I watched it. I was watching it the other day. And, you know, Buffalo got the win on that one. It was in shootout, I think. But the point being is you look at it, and they're a very well-rounded team. Well, coach, I would still say, having watched Colorado Live,

having watched Dallas Live the other night, I think they're below those two teams, but not by much. Put it that way. I think those, the other two, I think, could be the two best teams in the league, Dallas and Colorado. But Minnesota is probably a tier below it, but not much. They're pretty solid. Are we worried about the Panthers?

I think you have to be. I think, you know, you're looking at the standings now. Toronto beats them last night and now they are in sole position of that last place. but you're you're uh seven wins out of 10 from being right there in the mix the problem is is the guys they do have in the roster not all the they had an injury list last night as long as my arm and six regulars out and weird injuries guy gets barbecue burnt or something i i can't even i don't want to laugh about it because i have no idea the nature but like that's tough to put up on the LTIR barbecue injury.

It was literally on, it was faunted last night on the broadcast. I was watching the U.S. side of it on my phone during my game. And it was faunted. You could see barbecue injury on top of Barcoff being out and Kutch being out. I think you have to be concerned because maybe this is one of those years where it's just an outlier year. and the parity is there and they can't catch up to the points or can't catch up to their injuries get them.

I think they make an excuse for them, you know. Maybe more important because they've had so much success and they've got all these injuries and yeah, blah, blah, blah. We're talking about parity and whether it's, what did you call it? Mediocrity. Mediocrity, whatever it is. Are some of these teams and GMs going to have to accept down years with a good team.

Do you know what I mean? Like I think the Leafs are a good team. They've had some injuries. They've had this. There's parity or mediocrity. Like, are we just going to have to bite the bullet on some of this and go, yeah, we're not going to be able to go for 10 years in a row or whatever it might be, right? Like I'm thinking about the Leaf specifically.

Yeah. And I'm looking, I'm going, maybe it's, you know, because Trillivings, you know, on a hot in the hot seat whatever you want to listen that this and that goalies have been out their back there are they any good i don't know they're probably better than their record is but maybe it's a year where it just doesn't come together are are they going to allow that to happen and keep their i don't even know if they have a first round pick but get a kid and draft or they do you know what i mean i i i think you have to let it play out a little bit because of how close everything is out there.

But I would say last week, if you would ask me, I feel like they're having a Boston from last year's season. Yeah. Just things, you know, everything caught up, injuries, all of that type of stuff. Now, they've won two in a row.

It's really funny. The fan base shifts on a dime. Like, you can already see two in a row beat the cup champions. Now, you know, hey, we're right back. I don't. I want to reserve my judgment a little farther to see if they can get a little bit more healthier. The problem is, is Tenev? I'm really concerned about him, guys. We all love

Chris Tamp. There's no timeline, is there? There's no timeline. And even if there is one, that injury was very scary for me, like watching him stretchered off on somewhat, I wouldn't say it was an innocent hit, but it wasn't the most egregious hit you've ever seen in your life. So you wonder how close is that for another one, if there is any. type of thing. Can I jump in there? And I'll let you keep going. But I think we forget, there was a point here

where he was going to see specialists about things. It was kind of like, well, the injury in the playoffs in 22 lingered. Oh, that shoulder. I think it was a shoulder in the playoffs.

He was basically a duct tape on him. I get it. The guy's a warrior and I love him. But, you know, they got their number one, although wolves played very well, stole our sudden skated since November 11.

It's a weird injury. Like they just came out the first and we haven't seen them since. Brandon Carlo was sent home. You know, yesterday they announced that he was sent home like Toronto home or home like Goffin. Send home from the road. Because there is either a setback or something that they are pondering surgery for. So there's your two top right shots.

defenseman on an already older and we'll call it slower defensive core that they had this year. You know, Stetcher's been a nice little breath of fresh air, but he's, you know. He's George Stetcher. At the best of times, I think he's a six, you know, I think he's a, but you look at it. They've got, you know, Matthews has been, had these injuries and now he's back. and, you know, it just, they've got a good enough team, I think, to be a playoff team, but is it any, does it stop there? You know, I don't know.

I look at them and that's why I'm trying to remove emotion and look at it and say, can they go on a five-game winning streak and get themselves right back into the mix? Absolutely. But what does it mean? Like, you know, are they deep enough? They got some depth scoring last night. finally, you know, it's been the last couple games. They've scored some goals. Scoring hasn't been the problem. Keeping out of their own net has been a problem.

And also, I just, I look at it and there's just such a drop-off for me. I don't know how you guys feel, but a drop-up. When you look at that roster after guys named Matthews, Nielander, Tavares, you know, it's Bobby McMahon, it's Max Domey, it's Callie Yarn Croke, it's Scott Lawton, And with all due respect, every team has those types of players. And you know what I can't steal his saying, but I'm going to say it, and we should probably use the reference. O'Dog uses this reference called J-A-G, just a guy. And a lot of teams have guys that are just a guy.

Like they're good players, they're NHL players. But if you put them, they're all interchangeable. Take that fourth line from you named Team X and put them with Team Y. You got to just the guys, fill in jerseys on each side. And the good teams don't have them. The good teams have depth. They have, you know, purpose with a third line, a fourth line, that type of stuff. But there's too many teams I see in this league where they're interchangeable parts.

And really you're relying on your stars to pull you through. Here's a good question. I think if this is true. Well, great enough. This is a good. Sega and out for the year. And if you're Jim Nill, how are you treating that? Who are you going after?

You've got the cap space. You've got cab space. And I think that's cap space that can be better used than on Tyler's. So, okay, so have we established, I see what your shirt is there. We established, and I think it's a good question, have we established in your mind, are there four or five teams that have a store, front that says open for business right now. To sell or to buy?

To sell. For Jim Neal to go shopping and walking in and go, give me Jordan Cairo. Give me. St. Louis, Calgary. Should be in there. I don't know if they are in there. I think they are in there.

They're just not admitting it. Nashville. I'd have to look out. Vancouver's already put the sign up. That's over. Okay. So there, there. There you go.

That's your selling. So I think the team, Teams from Florida up still believe they're there. 500 and up, yeah, I agree. Fine. Four at the bottom. Then St. Louis Van, Nashville, Calgary. So then if you've got the storefront and you're Jim Nill,

then you're going and looking for, I mean, Sagan's actually played quite well for them. Like I watched him the other day, and he seems to have a bit of a resurgence. He was 33 years old. So is it Marsha, so? is it Stamcoast

those guys have term I'd be looking at maybe somebody that you could use as a rental one year Yeah because they got to deal with Roberts in the summer anyway You probably don't want

to start eating next year's cap So it's guys on the last year of their deal or somebody you believe that you could flip you know in the off season or something like that so then you know

Who are you looking at Keith for Sherwood? I was just going to say Sherwood but it's if Sherwood having one of those years. Few of them.

So what? Go ahead and have that here as long as you're on my team. And we, I don't know. And you still got another five million to spend elsewhere out of Ben's money. Like that's what thing like if I just, if you,

what, what, what, what's sure what are you getting? The one that was in Nashville who's, you know, hardworking and or. Hey,

gee, just a guy. Or is, like that's the thing. He, that's the, but to your point, he doesn't make a lot.

So you might be able to get him and. You would. for sure. Through a combination. Here's like Ryan O'Reilly, somebody like that who can be versatile for you. Like I looked at that Dallas team has a really good mix of old and new, right?

Because Wyatt Johnston's a rock star and he's a kid. Maverick Bork is a really good young player. You know, they're missing two or three D. Harley and Bachel, that's a, that was during my game the other day. It looked like he broke his ankle or leg or whatever it was. But they've got depth in all positions. And if you look at it, they've got older, which was the Sagins and Magistine's not even playing yet. He's coming back. Like, you know, and then the Jamie bends. And then you go into the Rupa Hintzes, Ranton in the late 20s,

and then you've got the early 20s. So you can go and get a Sherwood. You can go and get or Ryan O'Reilly who would fit in. I'm just saying Ryan O'Reilly because I think he's a versatile. Maybe Braden Shed. Somebody like that. You know, that then play center or the wing can give you some goals, but also give you some leadership and has won and been there before. And like you say, you've got the luxury of cap space and prospects and picks to go and

add to your group. So, you know, if you're looking at that, I think that's where you have to be shopping. If you're looking at Calgary, maybe a guy like Blake Coleman. I don't know. I think he's a very nice. He's from Texas. That would be a lovely fit. Yep, from Plano, Texas. So, you know, I think those are the, that's where you're calling those managers and seeing if it's not a king's ransom to get him out of there.

Yeah, it sure would only makes one and a half. So even if you did add him, you got $8 million to play without if we know that Sagan's done for the year. It's an ACL surgery, so it's long term. But maybe they pull the Barkov thing with like, well, maybe he'll be ready in spring. We're not going to put them on LTIR or whatever. Right, right. We'll see. We'll ask with the Jets, one in five in their last six. And I think that times up really uncoincidentally with the absence of Connor Hallibuck. Yeah. Well, it's funny. I will say I had a good chat with Chevy last night because he was

there and they're in Montreal tonight. And I played with Chevy. And, you know, we usually just catch up on life because I try not to talk too much. hockey with some of my friends that are in those positions. But it was interesting because I didn't, you know, we weren't really talking hockey, but I just said how things been going. And he said, Jamie, our team hasn't played very well. Like he said, there's, he goes, you can easily use the excuse of all the goalie, but he goes, we, it was catching up to us.

He goes, our play wasn't playing well. He goes, we've got players that have come back off of injury. We've got player. So he just basically said, I'm not going to, I'm not giving these guys a pass. because the back-to-back business winners out. Our team's not playing well. So he said like that's, you know, it's tough to assess because you're sitting there looking at,

well, yeah, the goalie masks a lot. But he goes, I'd like to see our team play a little bit more consistent in the game within the game. And then you start to assess what you have. So, you know, it's funny when you talk to people that are measured as opposed to fans, right? Like the fans are trade, sell, you know, do all the. And you talk to a manager and go, I'd like to see, you know, we had a tough week.

I remember, I'll never forget this. And this is why I want to bring it up. Down the stretch last year, Florida was hemorrhaging. Like they were, you know, they had injuries. And it was almost like they were resting. You could see them resting on the fly down the stretch. And they didn't care if they were first, second or third in the Atlantic. They're like, we're a playoff team.

We just need to get healthy. They traded for Marchand, Marchand coming off of an injury, hadn't settled in, they kind of had a lot of disjointed things going on. And I remember talking to Paul Maurice before the game. They were playing in Ottawa. And he said, yeah, you know, I'm fine. He goes, we're fine. He just said, like, we got to get through these games.

We got to get healthy. Like, they just, they had a sense of, like, confidence of what they feel their group is and their group isn't there. So they just admitted it. Our group's not there, but we will be. We're fine. And it's just, but you know,

you're sitting there worried about that night. Like I'm sitting there going, are you worried about tonight? Are you going to win or lose? And it's like, whether we win or lose, I'm more trying to get them to a point where I feel like we're comfortable.

I got that sense from Winnipeg last night. It's like, hey, we're not playing well, but we're a better team than this. So it'd be interesting to see because they've got a tough road trip and they've got some tough teams coming up. so if they can get it pointed in the right direction.

But it does, from the outside, it just is like, hey, they need some saves. Well, you need a lot more than saves for them to get it turned around. I wonder how hard it is for a coach or a GM in that spot where I think that's probably accurate. Yeah, it's been they're playing more poorly. And then the goalie goes out to tell the room, listen, we need to play better. Like the goalie is one thing. And the guys would be like, he's a heart trophy winner. Like he's, like, it's, okay, we can try and play a little bit better,

but one in five or whatever it is in six, and we're without maybe the best goalie in the world. Okay. We'll try to coach. Even mentally, though. Like I always joke, but if you, you know, you took Kipersoft out of our lineup for what that year, what was it, six weeks or whatever?

Six weeks, yeah. Like, we banded together. And the team, guys were blocked and shot. Like it was, it actually helped galvanize our team because it was like me and Danny Sabrin or something because Roman was on the shelf too. Yeah. You know, so it was like, okay, we're going to sink or swim here. And, you know, the team could feel it. Like, you, you know, it's like we don't have a Vesna winner in there.

You've got somebody who's going to try hard and work hard. Eric Comrie's a good goalie and really, and really. He's a jag. Yeah, but he's exactly, just the guy, right, compared to the other, the guy who won the heart last year. So, so that's the thing. The team has to band together and play. You can't play with reckless abandon.

Like, that's where you're trying to win two, one, three, two. You know, it's like, we're going to get our goals, but let's make sure we don't expose a scenario where we don't get a save from a guy that isn't capable of making the saves that the other guy can, which is fair. one last quick one one last quick one because yeah that coolly started six or seven i think here does it doesn't matter do we care like the last start wolf had was against tampa bay he got absolutely torched again maybe not all his fault but is there anything there to worry about think about i mean it's in a long 10 years from now we're probably not even remembering but would you

treated it differently? I'm happy about it, which is weird to say, because this is the growing pains of an elite starter. And there isn't just a jersey filler. There's a guy who's trying to play behind him to earn a contract, to be an everyday NHL or all of the types of things. So Cooley, getting the lion's share of starts right now, is creating a little bit of a healthy competition.

We know who the number one guy is. We know who the star is. But he's not playing at the top of his game. And it's all right for him to work on his game while Cooley plays. And when I saw that he was getting another start, I'm like, oh, good. You know, good for him because you can see he's excited to play. And the team is, you know, when you go on a little bit of a role, it's nice. it's not just the same.

Sometimes you know where they say, like, you play well, you'll get the net. You play, you know, you play well, we'll put you right back out there. But then the coach is like, I'm not putting that guy out there. I need my, you know, I need my starter. I need my star.

But here is a scenario. If you play well, you get an opportunity to play. I would like to see if, you know, name me a player that's farther down in the lineup and start scoring or starts producing. and Huska's like, sorry, I got to find more ice time for him. So why should you have that in the net? And I don't think it changes the status of Dustin Wolf whatsoever.

Not in my mind. It shouldn't change the fan base or the organization. What it does is it helps him grow to the point where it's like, yeah, I want that net back. That's my net. And I want to push myself. And he gets time to work with the goaltending coach and work on his game in a season where it's not going to go perfect. Last year seemed to just go,

showed up, he made a bunch of saves and got them 96 points. This year, it's different. People are preparing for him. And maybe he doesn't get the bounce. Maybe it doesn't hit the crossbar and go over the glass. Now it hits the crossbar and goes in. So he's got some adversity. So it's a long-winded answer. I'm not worried about him, but I think it's good for the bigger picture of Dustin Wolf and his progression as an elite number one. Because in my mind, he's still an elite number one. But I remember Yarra Halak playing in front of Kerry Price. You know, a young Jamie McLennan got a few extra starts in front of Grant Fear until they smartened out.

Like all these types of things that happen. And it's for the bigger picture. Put it out. When you go to, because you travel a lot. And when you go to these NHL cities, everyone loves you. Do you have like a list? It's like so this, you know, I can't go out for dinner with you this time, but next time I'm back in town.

Like do you have like a maybe an assistant to log all of your social calendar? I mean, you're on the road. It's like, well, okay. Okay, prongs. I'll try and squeeze you in. You want to have dinner. Sure. And Thanksgiving.

That was a while ago. And I flew in, and I was supposed to get in earlier, but because there was a bunch of storms and stuff like that, I missed his actual Thanksgiving dinner, but he had some there. And it was just me and his family, his three kids and his wife. And we watched Joe Burrow play. You can see him in the background. I see him. So, yeah, it was nice to catch up. But we had planned that a while ago on the schedule.

And Chris had come two weekends ago to my house when he was doing Amazon Prime in Toronto. He did hockey night on a Saturday night and he did Amazon Prime on a Monday. And on the Sunday, him and a guy named Mike Dick who coaches the Marley's, Moby, we call him. Moby, my dear friend, Moby and Prongs came out to the house to watch some football. So my social calendar just basically fits if I can fit. in with their lives. But to be honest, like last night, I had, I did my game and I had games to watch. I had Calgary to watch.

I had Evanton to watch. I had, you know, and I was tired. I had a, whatever, it was a 6am flight. So I had to be up early this morning and right back at it. This guy's a worker. We've got to let you go. It's all, I mean, it's, right. Anytime.

I understand that. It is Chris Pronger. You know, it's not, uh, not, uh, heading over. to, you know, Blair Attenham's host. Jamie Rivers or something. I played with Yolkin Heck. He was my... He literally, I lived in a shoebox in Clayton, Missouri.

And right across the hall, Yolkin and his wife, I think he was his girlfriend, but I think they're married now, obviously 25 years later. But they lived across the hall for me. And I was a big DVD guy. I remember for that. And they were like a German... really lovely German couple.

But one time we went on the road and I came back and Yoken's girlfriend's like, hey, here's your DVDs back. And I was like, how'd you get those? And she goes, I had the landlord open your condo. And I grabbed a bunch of DVDs. I was like, all right, that's kind of unique.

But anyways, like Yolkin, heck. Did you have those weird blades when it was playing? Yes. They made this weird. Like they had the, and they made that noise when he was. Yeah. He was a good player. He was like sturdy and that gritty German player.

I liked him. But his wife, she was no nonsense, man. Like DVDs or not, she laid it down. She's like, that's it. Taking those out of your condo. How did she know like that maybe I didn't have somebody in the condo? You're a movie. What kind of movies you had to either?

That could have been dangerous. I had 3,000 DVDs still to this day. sitting in the house of DVDs. I don't know what to do with them. I did the whole thing. I was telling the boys this winter. We went through and we cleaned it cleaned out our basement. Ceds and DVDs that you've collected that meant so much to you over the years. And now they're just sitting there. Is it just the dumpster? Oh, no. There's movies in their weekend at Bernice. I'm not throwing that one out. Can you not stream that on one of the many services you subscribe to? Not a growing weekend at Bernie's out or bad Santa or any of these like classics that I lived and breathed back in the day. Can I throw out my friend's set of nine seasons? Yes.

Don't throw out Sopranos, too good. Spranos, the wire. When the apocalypse comes, you might need those. We won't be able to get on the internet. I don't know what to do with them, but they are literally filling giant cupboards in my basement. and I'm not lying 3,000 of them. What do I do? We should do Jamie Movie Club.

Just grab one every week. And before we go, it's like this week we're going to watch. And it's just like some creepy. What's that clockwork orange? Yeah, that was a banger. That was a weird one. So next week we need your top five Christmas movies. There's your homework assignment.

I think bad stuff. No, no, no, no. You got to get out of it. We'll get some sleep. I got to go. I got to go. All right, Jay. me. There you go. He is noodles. He's doing us on the, as always, on the Crystal Waters plumbing and heating insider hotline.

Garage heaters professionally installed. You don't even need to, it's a life change. Maybe you're putting, like Dreg said, you're putting TVs in the wall and you're treating it like a man cave because, you know, in the house, I don't want your guy stuff on the wall. I don't need your dumb jerseys hanging. Do it in the garage. All right. Get the garage heater in there all of a sudden. you got your own little spot there. Sure. Or if anything goes sideways with your hot water heaters, your furnace, anything. The first thing that pops into your mind, crystal waters, plumbing and heating, crystal clear Calgary.

Dot com. And shameless plug for the top shelf elf because they got a hell of a prize in there. Goodness. Yeah. And I don't want to take away from anybody else's donation because everybody that is donated to our top shelf, I'll go to nationgear.ca. That's the website. It's our Christmas charity auction in support of closer to home, the charity

here in town, it's a smaller little charity and they do such great work. It's their adoptive family campaign and some friends and sponsors and that have donated different things. They are all up for grabs. We're about a week out from the auction's ending. And just earlier this week, the fellas at Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating came through with a prize pack in the spirit of 12 days of Christmas.

It's a $12,000 air conditioner and furnace package. That's you're building a house. Like that's, oh, goodness. It's, yeah, it's, it's a mahusive prize. And there are more coming. There are more coming. Encourage you to go and check them all out at nationgear.ca. It's kind of overwhelming, actually, the support that comes in.

And there's more coming in. that handsome Dan, he's like, hey, we did it last. I kind of forget what it was if it was, because he did the candy bracket. He did, yeah. So he's got a package just going up. I know we've got, uh, Pinery, golfin. Got some together as well, date night.

Yeah. That'll become. So we were good. We got about a week, got about a week left. And as Jack is showing you there on screen, we also have a donation link. You can obviously make business. but maybe you want to help out in the event you don't win something in the auction. You can make a straight donation and every all of it.

It comes into whatever this account is and it is wired directly to closer to home. And they go out and buy gift cards and grocery gift certificates and stuff. And then in the days leading up to Christmas, they drop off all these little packages so that the families can go out and do some shopping and buy stuff. They get their lists together and then go out and do the shopping. And have a great Christmas. So happy to be a part of all that. And I think it kind of took us a little bit, not by surprise, but it was like, ooh, so there's 500 plus families. They've taken care of quite a number already.

And there's still an incredible number. And with that comes a significant need for funds. So it will go to a great place, we assure you. Uh, we'll, I want to tell you about InvestMed. That's another thing. I don't, I don't know if it's a, I don't know how that goes off if it's under the tree. Like Benner, you were saying it's a great Christmas gift. Stock it's, um, stocking for sure.

Yeah, that's a move. But it's, it's a heck of a gift. Uh, if it, if it's, and talking about life longevity, that sort of thing. InvestMed is Canada's first and only private medical testing company. it's testing unlike anything that's being done. You're not getting it done at a clinic. They go and they do the blood work and they do deep dives.

And then you go and it's the battery of screening tests that are done that's done in being proactive. Maintaining your level of health as you age, mitigating your risk for developing serious illness and enjoying life now and as you age. We all hear the stories. I wish I don't know.

It's too bad. If you know what else is something is that we all know people and we should probably say, hey, you. Yeah, I did that for my wife. I think about what our lives would be like if she had been had a body scan 10 years ago. That mass that turned into a big problem might have been, oh, we can deal with us. It's gone. Like, yeah, that's the preventative stuff that you just don't have access to elsewhere.

And maybe it's the Clean Bill of Health. And isn't that great? Yeah. Even better. What if it's a tiny little issue that in a decade is a monster. issue. You can book a one hour consultation with an invest med physician today. It's just $199.

And you'll find out from there how to protect your future health. Proudly Canadian. No traveling to, no getting on a plane to get specialized treatment. It's done right here in our city. Invest dashmed. We didn't talk a lot about the game. I was a little bit late getting in here.

Apologies, boys. And then I had to tell you about Christmas trees. Is there a Tuesday night? Tuesday night or yeah? I was a wedding. Yeah. I, uh, I think we were all at the same event last night. So we were a great catch up to catch highlights or watch condescending.

I made it off the PBR until about the 10 minute mark of the third. And then, uh, the cozy faux bearskin thing that I was lying on just took me. I was. Yeah. You made it that long and bad? Yeah. And honestly, like I wanted to. get to the point where we got to the final score and there was a tilt in there and that's a very

tired team at the end of a long road trip and it's also just there's so many barred painters like on a night like that if you could have a guy that could make a play yeah that separates you i think of the he would a break away early that was a chance to maybe alter the game script a bit um they are remain the most offensively challenged team in hockey and that's not leaving them a lot of room for success when you're tired in game five of a five game roadie in three different time zones. Does that is it starting, we're seeing a direct correlation between scoring and winning. And winning.

Yeah. I mean, you need to also not let them in your own net. They're okay at that to good at it. But yeah, if you don't score, like we saw it with cool the other day, just get me one, fellas.

One. One. Couldn't do it. So they closed the rose trip with one goal and two games. Yeah, like we talk about those scheduled losses, this end of a five game trip and the travel being, yeah, it's going to be a lot. It compounds itself when you're a team that struggles to score. Totally. Yeah.

So let's say you're Minnesota at the end of this. Caprizo might undress a guy and make a play and like, that's a superstar. They don't have that guy. They don't. Yeah. They looked. They don't have it. They don't have the deal.

The D man. You had the, I think the graphic yesterday of the ice time and shifts of that of the ball, Anderson and Uyghurs of the world. They were out of gas. It was defensively as much as anything last night where the predators of all teams had kind of had them in the rent cycle. Well, that's part of the problem of your defense is if your defensemen are going to play that much, you better be damn well good enough to give them some shifts where it's soft.

Right. Right. And that is not Flames hockey. You know what I mean? Those are, they're not gifted offensively enough for the Andersons and the Uighurs to advance it up to the forwards. And then there's 40 seconds of offensive zone time where they're just controlling it. It's, you know, kind of. They're hard minutes.

They're hard minutes. You're grinding. You're grinding. So home today, game tomorrow against the Red Hot Wild. Are we worried about that for every reason in the book? My God. That does not line up well either. No, it's the hottest team in the NHL.

And it's the first game back after a monster roadie with all the distractions of Christmas time and shoveling the walk and kids and all that for your veterans. Look, if this was the middle of a home stand and you've been home for a month, this is still the toughest out in the league right now. And Minnesota is good at what you struggle at. Stretching. Are you getting a... DC? Your lower back sore from the... Oh, tight.

From the seat last night? Yeah. Concerts. Yeah, tough one. Tough one for sure. I'm sure that'll be some details, but dig too deep. All right, boys, it's time for the Pinder Report for Village Honda. They have their winter ready used SUV event going on now.

We're talking four by fours, all-wheel drive vehicles built for our city's winter. Check out the selection online at VillageHonda.com or get up to the Northwest Auto Mall. Take a peek yourself. Dino set it. Test drive weather. Go get it. We've played it before and we'll play it again. we probably could be using this more.

I don't know that's good, but it's accurate. And the flames lost again with a lack of scoring punch, and they are in the McKenna's sweepstakes. End. It's been a lot of those this year, like a lot. That was months ago. It feels like it at least. Let's go to the website.

They watched for the keener eye than we did off PVR last night. Devoured by Predators and Road Trip finale. Pike's got that one. There's another article as well. I mean devour it's quite a word right well it's yeah and you're playing into the team name I like that yeah yeah savvy headline writing over doesn't leave a lot it's kind of so was nail biteer close type type type now I didn't know when the goals were I was getting the alerts and was late to arrive to the event we were at so I knew it was like already out of reach for the lowest

scoring team in hockey but it actually was a close game well into this contest like one nothing lasted for a long time last night. But at the end, the team that created the chances and was not exhausted, it was a rather easy skate at the park. Next line, go. Well, it's going to happen. Cooley got pulled. Wolf came in.

You allowed one early. It finishes with 11 saves on 12 shots. There is a lot of pulling going on. Is this? There is a lot of pulling going on. And there's been a lot of early goals. The first shot against Vancouver went in to start the road trip. The first two, or sorry, four, the first six went in against Tampa, the first two on Cooley in Florida.

Like, the starts have been tough. And this wasn't necessarily one of those. Like, it was, it wasn't the first shot. But, yeah, it's, I think you got Wolf a little bit of puck touch before he goes into the net against Minnesota. Because they're not practicing today. They is travel day. They stayed overnight. They fly today.

So Wolf will be allowed. to in that third period get some reps. It's not like he's got practice today before he plays against Minnesota. I think that's the plan. I'm sure it's science and they have reasons for doing the things they do. I don't get that one. Get the F home. So now you're going to spend another night on the road with an hour time change to your benefit coming back here.

Unless it was Tutsi's time. Maybe they're not going to, I don't believe. If that's the case, that's fine. But typically you're not going. think that's the crew and I don't think that's a coach's mandate and I don't think you do it on a Tuesday when you're playing on Thursday after if you were going to do it it was Sunday night. Yeah. And again, like the sleep doctors in a vacuum can say this is a better scenario.

But if I'm if I've just got off the ice and I don't fly until 11 out of the next day, I might go out what other ones say what is. Well, and even if the sleep doctors have there, there's more to it than just hours of sleep. There's lifestyle and there's waking up in the. city where you live and there's kids that you haven't seen for a long like they're it's a busier day yeah yeah don't

razor says this all the time where they can Buffalo they got so consumed by the fucking scientists that they everything went to pot and there's no clue about anything and they're all the science I don't give a shit

sometimes you just have to do the right thing we're going to let them stay in in extra night. Oh, shoot. They didn't sleep. Damn. Well, that wasn't good science. Expect them to go out if they're in Vegas. Okay, so we'll continue to move the schedule. It looks as such. It's a busy month of November, December, excuse me, 13

games. They do have a nice stretch at home here. It's four in a row before two on the road and then a two-game homestand to get to Christmas. That's idiotic. Six of their next eight at home. The more I think about it, this is so stupid. State of Nashville last night? Shake your heads, fellas. Come on.

anybody that has traveled on a holiday or whatever you know what that travel day home is like it's just another lost day you're not a lost day and it it is because you don't you don't okay what time is it i got to get up oh i got to get i'm got to get up got to get my room again even for the n8 where you have your private plane and stuff you're still taking a bus you get to the airport you got to do the bullshit you got to get home what i would want to do it last night i'm wide awake after the game it's a what four hour flight-ish. Not four hours.

Three and... Let's just get home. Get me home hour earlier. Now, would you rather be landing at like... Been on the road for how long? What the f. Are you thinking? Tell him, Rhett.

Dumb. There's the homestand. Wild who've been red hot. Mammoth are just okay. They've crept into the bottom 10 as we'll show you in a bit. Buffalo's playing much better of late, but still in that bottom 10. And Detroit's had a nice little year. Two years ago, they just missed the playoff.

last game of the year. And last year they were close, but not close enough. The Eiser plan may be working. It just took a lot longer than people thought. And they really got screwed at the lottery ball luck, finishing last, drafting fourth, shit like that. They've changed the rules again since then. But that's not a group of dormats.

There's a very, the hottest team in the NHL and then three teams that are playing relatively well. Late games on the road in California and then three before Christmas. I love that Christmas is bookended by Oilers games. That would be great atmosphere. That's the long ways out. You're walking through it and that's good. There's no one on this list of teams that you can take light.

No one in the league you can. You're looking up at the rest of the league. The team you thought you might be able to take lightly was the one you played last night and they spanked you. Devoured you. And yeah, you were tired, but you got devoured. And it's odd because you look, who are the teams that they've beaten? Well, they beat the Florida Panthers. Dallas was a goalie one.

Florida, that's not the real Florida. They're missing six. It maybe is Florida. They're not doing so well. Yeah, I mean. Got everybody out for sure, but that's what it is. That's who they are. You can't control of the team's injuries.

You've got to play the team that they ice. I get it. It's just like their signature quote signature wins. You'd think, okay, well, you beat Edmonton. Well, I was a gift. They're up 3-0 and they kicked it and Cruz and Stuart Skinner gave an early Christmas present.

Like, Florida's missing Kachukh, and Barkoff and Listerine. 30 seconds. And, and, and, and. 30 seconds. You're 30 second. None of these are easy. Hoy.

Time for some home cooking. We're all on same page, Wolf tomorrow. No, we don't want to get the home cooking too soon. Let's stay one more night on the road. Right. One more continental breakfast threat. Who's smar me now?

Who's got a girlfriend in Nashville and wanted to stay over? That's what I'm wondering. Who the hell's pulling this? This is the sleep. Dr. Come on. Sleep doctor. He's got a side piece.

And if you don't have a girlfriend in Nashville, I mean, how do you ever find one there? That'd be tough, wouldn't it? That's a good point, too. Jeez.

Well, keep moving. Bottom 10. This is the Misery Bowl. There really is a bit of separation. Like, I look at everything above St. Louis and I say,

you're 500, you're a four-game winning street from being in a really good spot. Florida's got the health issues. Buffalo's played better of late, miserable start. Oilers are starting. starting to get some goaltending.

They got shut out last night, one nothing. Utah's a solid team. Toronto's looking better. Jets are without Hellebuck. The bottom four are the teams that misery knows well. And look at that. Back to the bottom.

And I still feel like St. Louis. Because again, we're looking at the bottom. St. Louis, what are they, one point back of a wild card? I just don't see that team,

Armstrong. I agree. Montgomery. I don't think they're, I think they're, I think it's great that he comes out. Yeah, I'll all friggin' trade anyone. I think their appetite is still to go north. I don't know, I don't know about those bottom three.

Will Buffalo join the pack? Potentially. But I, yeah, I feel like those bottom three. Yep. I looked at the projected standings on Beth through 6.5. They pull these down while games are on at night. But once the finals come in, you can see them until buck drop the next. next day. Flames project the over under for

point 75 and a half. That is 32nd in the league. Nashville 76 and a half, one point more, 31st. And San Jose, who isn't even on this list, they're projected for 76 and half, then Chicago at 78, they're not on this list either. I'm taking the over. That might be a nice thing. You could hit the over if you'd like. So as of last night's crucial four point loss. The performance.

The pro forma. That has the flames. one point lower than the projected total of Nashville. The unemotional, unbiased sports book have them tracking for last. Nice t-shirt, Red. I don't know where I got this. This is an early Christmas gift, I think. No, somebody dropped. Yeah, appreciate it very much.

Jack, you want to do that one, San Jose? You and me? Since we're buddies. Yeah, let's go. I'm looking for hobbies. Wait, what day of the week is that on? No, Jack. We're going to don't bet 365.

Take San Jose in the over. Total point. Jack wants to go on a trip with you. So when are we going? We're going to move in. I'm going to cut out a trip. What am I cooking you dinner? TM66.

That's right. Here are your finals from last night. Rangers got a rare home win. That doesn't have much at all this year. And Chicago fell in the shootout to Vegas. But Dard had another incredible goal. Take him to Italy. Take him to Italy.

peak is the young star was on it again. Big defending. Good ship by Vegas, but good defending by Chicago. Briswick got just been off of the body of the stick. Now we're going to break the other way. Look out. There's 98. It is Badaard. Cote and Schultz and scores. Are you kidding me? Yeah, I'm not kidding you. That's real.

And a year ago. What that hell? What about Bajor? What about Bard? He's not going to be that good. Oh, Kant. Maybe give the guy a minute in the league. Look at this. What do you do? Like, this doesn't play it poorly.

It's just this guy's better than you. And that's Shea Theodore. That's the number one defenseman. He has an incredible shot. It's an incredible shot. Yeah. Well, you know, I don't know about his penalty killer. We can't take him to Italy.

Stop it. Take him. Just a little goal. Play him from. And then scored a beauty in the shootout, which they lost, but had a shootout. Carter Hart was in net. He robbed Bidar in overtime.

He's bad. He's bright. and boy, that's good. Another milestone last night, Jamie Ben. Oh, B, E, E, N, Ben, Ben, Ben, 1200 games, Rhett.

With what team? And that's something. Single franchise. I remember sitting at the dome watching Hitman playoffs as he was a Colonna rocket. Who's quite good. Your reign's good.

effective. Yeah. Mean. Remember to cross that guy's face right? He is very mean. That is a guy you want in a seven game series. He's son of a, yes. 1,200.

Did he win an Art Ross the one year? Can you lead the league? The one year of the monster. Yeah, 105 points from more. It's the Pinda report. Yeah. We'll effort that. Let's look at tonight's slate while we Google.

I'll do that. You focus on the task attack. Art Ross, 2014, 15. Where do you go, Dino? Not a point. God. Speaking of the stars. Or that memory of yours.

Maybe the game of the night is in New Jersey. Sorry, go ahead. No, it's fine. It was the lowest total. Yeah, 87 points and 82 games.

But he edge out of Cedine that year? I feel like he did. Probably. My memory of that. I can't let it go. Well, please do. Okay.

So a game of the night, probably Dallas, a Jersey, two teams that are really, really good that we expect to be playing deep into spring. Jersey was ravaged with injuries last year. Did you guys see tip of the cap to a friend of the show, Brendan Dillon,

played his thousandth game a couple nights ago. Brendan Dillon? Yes. Oh, Brandon. Unrafted. Playing Junior B when he was like 17 and zinc,000 games. They love him.

He got clunked in the game by that big donkey, Varancov from Columbus. So speedy recovery to him in game number 1,000. Good one in the sports net tonight. Jets, reeling. Habs played last. night but at home. And then great late night.

Anytime you can get the orange of the ducks or the teal of the sharks late at night, you will not be disappointed. Two of the most entertaining watches and hockey is. They don't really defend that well and they can score a lot. Not that you mentioned the middle one. I don't mind the middle one. It's just the fifth of five. 2014-15, Jamie Ben, 87 points and 82 games.

One point better than John Tavares is 86. Sid had 84 and 77 Ovi and Vorechek. Wow, Jacob. It's a round of the top five. Very good. Thank you. NFL, we'll get to the playoff pitchers.

We tried to do yesterday. It didn't work. Here's exactly what we're looking at here, friend. You sure? Because yes. Yeah, this is fresh. This is after week nine of the playoff picture. After week 13.

There it is the tide. All right. Okay. Your buys go to two second year quarterbacks. Drake May and Caleb Williams, who had that on their bingo cards? Wow. Excellent NFC West matchup would be the Rams and the Niners.

Soft schedule for the Niners, but they're starting to get a little healthier. And they've found ways to win games. Green Bay, Philly would be fun. And Seattle and that nasty defense would get a much healthier Tampa Bay crew. It looks like Jalen McMillan and Mike Evans returned to practice this week. Not sure they're going to go this weekend, but the Bucks are starting to get healthy. at the wide receiver position. They already have a mechakbuka,

and I think Godwin's still healthy. Is that right? Yep. So look out for that offense with Baker when they return those two receiving weapons. On the AFC side, the bills would go to Denver. Mile high, Rhett.

I'm in. Oh, Buffalo's against horses. Love to see it. Speaking of horses, the Colts would go to Jaguars. That's an AFC South matchup. And the Chargers would go to Baltimore, not Pittsburgh, Jack.

What's Pittsburgh? They're not there. Where's Pittsburgh? If they win the division, the Charlene. Pittsburgh. Oh, Pittsburgh's not. No, Baltimore.

Oh, not yet. Purpleburg. It's only week 13, Jack. We got you this week. Got a great Thursday night here on tap, a really, really good one. I don't know that anyone's more entertaining than the Cowboys right now with that offense. The defense is suddenly passable,

and the lions have underperformed but have star power. Jameson Williams has gone nuclear without M on Raw, and Gibbs is electric. This looks like a gem of a game. We've got the number for you. 54 and a half. Put the over on my bed slip. That's like a, we got like a projected like 29, 26, something like that.

Like it's, there should be some points on Thursday. If you got fantasy players on Thursday, you'll know how your final week of the league regular season is going by the time you get to the weekend. Fantasy, good luck to everyone last week. Yeah, good luck to everybody in fantasy. Big week. Big. Big. Yeah, YouTube. Finally, it's not golf weather here. But if you ever take a trip in the winter, boy, people love just warm weather, go down south, forget about winter altogether.

Oh, I hear you. This is a non-traditional technique we're starting to see for reading putts. Let's take a look here. Oh, thank you, man. I'm thinking just outside, right? Maybe just maybe just ball out right. It's like, just like that. Just stuff about it.

Anyway, it must be fun to be in the warm weather and out of the snow. There's your pinned report for this Wednesday, December 3rd. I heard. Jack liked it at least. It's so stupid. For Village Honda. The preludes coming back. How excited are people with that? It's got the hybrid engine.

Great memories. It took it away for a while. Now it's back. The nostalgia's grown. Oh, can't wait. Arriving soon at Village Honda, your dealership for life located in the Northwest Auto Mall and online at village honda.com.

There you go. This is not good. What are you looking at? I don't know if I'm making the playoffs. You're in tight. Injured. You guys go ahead. I've got to figure this up.

Yeah, Rhett's got a, he just missed waivers yesterday. Oh, no, what? You know, to watch for a waiver.

What are those? Exactly. Uh, there you go. Outdoor dental, dentistry with no needles, no drills, and thus,

no stress. The Solaya laser, revolutionizing the way it's done. Yet there's so few places that you can find it. There it is. Pinder found it right there. Pia, Poo,

I'm going tomorrow. Are you? Are you? I don't go back. Every couple of years, you can get it done. Retighten that soft, floppy tissue in the back of your throat, soft palate, you call it. I know what you're saying.

I thought this is a dental office. Well, yeah, but also the laser works to prevent and help, I don't know, cure, but eliminate snoring. Like you said, the soft palate tightens things up. Now you're sleeping better. More sleep and better sleep. That's a double. It's a double whammy for you right there.

in a good way. And they're on the person next to you. More sleep, better sleep for them too. Everybody's happy. Win, win, win. It's a great gift for your wife. I'm hoping. Outdoor.

Dot Dental is the website to find out more. Maybe you've got those benefits all stacked up. Yeah. Get them in before the end of the year. Dr. Jay Patel, he'll squeeze you in. Say, yeah, I know, I know that Rhett Warner. He said, uh, you could get me in. Hey, Doc Jay.

Good to go out you, retro. You know it. You know both of them are boys. You can drop either Warner name there. That's right. That is correct. Yeah. That's right.

The last two Flames games, there has been very little. One was a one nothing game, low event. And last night was a blowout. I don't want it. Now some Codra got tangled up with Jonathan Marsh or so there. That didn't look good. Yeah, that did look a little nasty. Tangled up awkwardly and it looked like there's some pressure on the right knee.

That's not ideal. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We saw what was it, the, the scrap between Coleman and. What's been doing fighting the old prick? Yeah, you didn't like what happened.

You got to run. Yeah, I didn't mind him. You did you. A little high volume. Yeah, it was quick. Quick. Jabs. Yeah, yeah.

A lot of jabs. It might be. What do you think will be on that flight today for Grubb? Retro. What would you be, what would be on the charge? or home today. There'd be ribs.

It would all, it would be a lot of barbecue. Unless they ate that last night. Because they don't now. Do you want ribs on an airplane? We haven't been on the charters. You have. It's messy.

It's what it is, man. They live in rooms together all the time. That's their dressing room. Airplanes. Yeah. I would think ribs. I would think it's,

you want me to find out? Yes. It's bluff. Speaking of ribs. Can you get some more of those ribs, Rick? Oh,

God, Jack. Yeah, I would have liked to try one, Jack. That'll be honest. They're gone. These are the hell we're talking about.

Very quickly, these were deleted by Jack's Tommy. Jack ate a rack of ribs in the hour of the day. Did I ever? Not pork, beef ribs. Mm-hmm. A rack.

Big. Fred Flintstone. Yeah. Yes, Brontosaurus burger. And it did look like buzzards had come and swooped through the kitchen because it was just animal bones left laying on the counter. Just a bet 365 bets for you here. Game props, player props, totals, the money line, whatever your bet is,

never ordinary at bet 365. Download the app, get in the game. Pinder, we're showing you those odds and all that, the over under. Yeah, it's pretty high over-under. Point totals, yeah. You still want the over on that Thursday night football game? Maybe take the under. Could Dallas's defense do a little something?

That's tomorrow. How about tonight? Yeah, big one tomorrow, but tonight, lots of hockey. Macklin-Celebrini has been an absolute revelation this season. He's been phenomenal. He's coming off a three-point night. They're at home. Put the kids to bed, throw on the sharks.

You won't be disappointed. And I'm really curious about this Jets team. I know Montreal played yesterday, but they're at home. I'm going to take the puck line. line, which is the habs to win by two or more. Maybe it's a new netter, maybe they just blow the doors off these nondescript, just a guy, goaltenders playing in Hullibuck spot. There you go.

Two teams that need a win. Yeah. Yeah, the habs, it was all, uh, they were all hot, everybody all hot and bothered for them at the start of the year. November. That's why they play 82, man. It's Montembow made a strong case for. He sure hasn't.

And, uh, he won't be going to the Olympics. And Jacob Dobin. who took his job in October has been very pedestrian of late. And they also have this Fowler kid in LaValle. Not Ricky. Oh. Not Ricky Bobby or Ricky Fowler. I don't know what they're going to do in that.

Like they're still very young with some vets. Like it's not the push the chips in. You don't have to do that for the habs, but also they could use a Nazim cadre. Yeah, the habs, there again, funny when a team struggling, what's going on? What's going on in net? Montembow has an 861.

That's no good, Dean. Dobish and 888. That's better, but still weak. And that's coming off the first month of the year where he's probably on the other side of 900, so it's been really ugly of late. Montembowa 3.61 goals against Dobish 322.

Yeah, three wins in their last 10 games. That'll happen. Not enough. That'll happen. Let's see if they go in tonight against Winnipeg. All right, there you go. That's the bet 365. and we said we'd do it.

We said off the start we'd do it. So. Super chat. We collect all of your scintillating comments that were accompanied by a cash donation. And then we fire them up here. Make some more scintillating.

Before the end of the program. This was some last night. Hey, hey. Oh, working man. Last night from after burner. After burner one. Couldn't find it. But working man's a good man.

So there you go. Oilers getting shot out by the goalie they didn't want is the most Oilers thing ever. Rhett killed me yesterday with the high danger dump-ins comment. Hashtag Oilers suck. Hashtag McDone. Superchat. I said that. You were making fun of the stats saying the high danger dump-in percentage or something like that.

Your high-danger dump-in per 60. Yeah. Something like that. Yeah, the Walsstet thing is not sitting well. It's been great. Depends of where you're entirely Perspective

Yep A-OK with it Here Don't know what it's like in South Calgary Marta Loop Big fans of Wallstead Big fan, huge fan

Yeah Wonder if the Flam C he or Gustavson They're both rolling Augustus in the lesser of the two Two shoutouts this year 906, 274

Wallstead Kipper-like numbers He's under 2, 1.74 A 944 that's unsustainably a sensational and four shutouts.

I don't think you can pull the goalie after it gets a shutout, though. Like, I think it's written in the Joan of Arc book. The goalie handbook. Both been hanging zeros lately. Yeah, but he just got it. Yeah, that's why I ask. I don't know what we'll say. Well, you're a goalie, dad.

For Christ's sakes, if anyone. I have no idea what I'm doing with my goalie. I'm not a goalie guy. You're terrible reference. Dallas Ska, $10. I hate pluggers. The oilers are toilet pluggers. Can I get a matching $10 in the name of those no good toilet abusers?

Oh, and it likes a toilet plugger. So Dallas is in with 10 bucks and is looking for somebody to meet or match or best. Dallas is 10 dollars. Dallas, Saskatchewan. It's like we're doing a telethon or something. I cannot confirm or deny the toilet plugging accusations. Yeah. But they're looking more like toilet pluggers than couples.

uplifters of this month. How is the enjoyment? Because the last time I saw McDavid's face, I haven't studied it for a while. It was not good. I sent some, but I shared the photos with you guys on our group chat. Yeah,

the post game after getting shalacked again. Is it still? The goaltending is better and all the questions in those scrums are about the goaltending because they got shellacked again. Now, then the media's got no talk about. You talk about lack of offense all of a sudden, but that's only one night.

So we'll see. I thought that's, the bush was just one night. Yeah, it was one nothing lost last night. right? And the prior to that, they won four. You blanked the Seattle's on the weekend. Yeah. Before that, they lost to Dallas eight to three.

And then they beat Florida. So I mean, it's, it's got a Seattle one. Yeah. Yeah. Who gives a shit. What else we got? Handsome Dan. Ten dollarinos. Times are hard all over Canada right now, but those in need feel it most. Any little bit we can do help someone have a better life. Good on you guys and the Bar and Burner community for stepping up. Oh, thank you, Dan. Well, sir. Handsome Dan's vacation rentals, they have donated a $1,000 gift certificate towards a

vacation rental. West Coast. Handsomdans.ca. I don't think it's up on the top shelf site just yet. We'll soon be in it up there today. Should be up. It should be up. We will get it up there.

We will get it up there. You've got a week or so to go. Continue to check in. The bids will change. be more items going up. Correct. Correct. Blackfoot.

Oh, Blackfoot. Have a good one. Yeah, he's trying to, you know. Curring favor. Figuring it out. He's figuring it out. You have a good one too, Blackfoot 27. Have a good one.

Now that emoji, is that kind of. That's the okay. Yeah. What does that mean? okay just okay is it a K if we really want to do a deep dive

not the two letters to work okay I don't think anybody wants to do a deep dive at all because I've heard it's something else that's bad that's if you put it in a different direction of it. Oh so the next okay so yeah next one

team eats did your boys already talk about the Olympic ice possible being three to four feet smaller source Peter de Boer does the NHL pull out with all these complications? Okay, so I could dive into this. We had Drag around a month ago, and he had noted it's not Olympic ice. In fact, it's actually smaller than NHL ice by four feet in length,

which is two feet per end, which is a very, very small modification. The AAHF approved this months ago. This is not new. Pete DeBoer did not know this and mentioned it yesterday, and it joined the news cycle, as if this was a, oh, my God, they made this huge mistake. No, drags told us a month ago it was smaller than NHL ice. Now, in fairness, you can include me in the dummy category because I thought when we talked to him, it's the Olympics, double IHF, so it's Olympic sized ice. No, he'd noted the opposite.

And then it was no, it's NHL sized ice. And then, well, actually, it's smaller than NHL sized ice. Yeah. And two feet at each end is pretty minuscule. I mean, you want to look at like the Boston Gardens, a guy that doesn't have any speedsters coming down on them. I mean, it might help Tom Wilson's case if you believe those two feet per half of ice mean a lot.

Well, two plus two is four, Ryan. Thank you. But again, like in this league itself, not long ago, you had rinks way smaller than this than NHL teams been played in every night. But I think about Ryan is, you never have to try and read into

what he might be thinking about something. I'm just seeing the big outcry because Pete DeBoard didn't know this, but this isn't news. This was a month ago. this was all report. Why do you hate Pete DeBoole? I don't. I just see people reacting to it. Like, news. I don't have time for this in the news cycle. This is bullshit.

It's just people that weren't aware. I'm with you. This is misinformation. Oh, you're going to play in Switzerland. No, they're not. There's no plan B. They're paying you. Pay attention, everyone. That's right. It's the Olympics. Get your phones out. Start doing some some goddamn reading. How you're doing with your free time?

All you have to do is watch Barnburner. We have the guests on. They're telling you this. Here you are in December 1st or second to ask it. So wait. is smaller? For Christ's sake. That's right. We had drags on a week ago. You know what? Can't some of us even listen to them?

Fell us. The fuck are we doing? Not your brisket TV. Got no goddamn time. The double IHF, they fucking approved this months ago. And now we're in December having this conversation.

Get your goddamn head out of your ass. Got no time for shit. I got shopping to do. My garage heater doesn't work for some fucking reason. I need just push alerts from phony baloney news.

I'm busy. I'm sorry, Ryan. I'm sorry. No one should have to deal with this kind of stuff. I hope this doesn't take away from the best part of year. Team Eats, your band. No, no. No, we love team.

He meets. He's just reporting. Wasted our fucking time with these. I disagree. No, no. I like teammates. Steve. Island's here.

I don't know why we're talking about this. Why is this a story? The fuck is the matter with everybody. Christ almighty, I got a dentist appointment. I too. I got a sales meeting I got to have. Wrap this up. And I'm talking about two goddamn feet at one either end.

Like, what are? Oh, it's on. Jesus Christ. So sorry, team eats. Does it? Until further notice. We got to. No.

Still further brisket. This is a nice move by Boehmer. Until further brisket, there's a. Until further brisket. Yeah. It's a harsh penalty, but fair. Yeah. It's a last one, but I got a freebie because I want to know the answer to this as well.

We got to figure this out. from Chris, how do we convince Greg to start selling the sausage stuffed turkey breast at Bontan? I would buy at least two for the holidays. And the turkey thigh, too. Goodness, it was going to. You know what? I got a bad fit. Just hold you guys go ahead and talk.

I think that's what it is, is the turkey that we had was a turkey breast and thigh meat. So he had taken the thighs, deboned it, and then took the breast and then stuffed it with Italian sauce. And then, you know, as they do, being their professionals, the butcher string and they tie it all up nice. So when you cook it, it all stays together. A nice, nice. Apparently people do watch because Greg reached out yesterday and said that he also had somebody in. I just got a call from a guy who loves a show wants the same turkey breast roast as you did for Thanksgiving. Amazing.

It was fair. I said if Red can do, do it, so can he. I don't know what that means, but I'll be able to cook. I just follow. I really didn't. I would think if you went to, I don't know if they're going to do that. Don't promote this because I just got my order in. Don't talk about it.

Wait at least 24 hours till I get to the front of the line. Right. I think you could probably make a request, right? You know what? Can I just, I'll answer this in all, honestly. You don't, you're not the best meat shop at southern Alberta for decades and decades. If you can't handle this, I'm sure if you showed up there and said, listen, Greg or whoever, because Greg wasn't even there when I showed up.

They know what to do. Greg Carey. And requested this, pretty sure. They're the best. And again, don't be strolling in on the 22nd. No, no, no, no, no. But you got some time here. Don't be doing that.

You got no time for that. Rolling in the 24th. Well, the other thing is it'll be so damn jam pack. she will. It's nuts. Yeah. Wind up. Get ahead of it.

Get ahead of it. Lined up. All right, fellas. It's probably it, eh? Jack, how was the show today? Great show. Got a little heated at the end there, but. Sting a Pete's a boar.

Hot top. I have to get hot Pete. Frigan T. Meets. There's enough stuff in the news cycle. When are we doing this to board a thing? Whatever reporter decided to put this thing out there? That's not a light him up. Can you find out who that is, right?

I want to see. I guarantee you he is going after him. I literally read the article. I said, no, this is new. This is brutal. But yeah, but did you? It's brutal. It's brutal.

Find his name. Got a bear ass career. Yeah, bear him right. Yeah. News to Pete. Jack, we'll go soon. We'll get you out to the mountains, buddy. Can we just get a last night we all went to an event.

Do we want to mention what we thought? or what we like to anything because I think that was a big thing in town. Love Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle. Funny man. It's, uh, he's one of one. Right. It's like there's an arena for a comedy show is a different animal.

Yeah. I've been to a, I've been to many different comedy shows over the years, but I was thinking I went last year, I guess it was last year to see Shane Gillis and Chappelle. those are the two. Those are, that's a different challenge. Oh, I would think for a stand up. There's a lot of people to keep in,

in line and in check and entertained and, and all of that. A definite rock star vibe around that guy. Someone had mentioned to me, like, oh yeah, you can't smoke in the dome, blah, blah, blah.

I'm like, why are all these, what keeps talking about cigarettes? Then it's like, soon as Dave got out there, dart one. Oh, he's, yeah.

Three. for like that guy ripped the whole deck at the morayes before the end of the show it was incredible yeah in real yeah it's the thing do we do we know why uh because it was announced what two weeks ago yeah it was like a nine a m or tickets on sales at noon and the guys here in two weeks didn't affect anything no it did not i guess the other thing so i'm just going to go and stand out in the middle of the building with a microphone in two weeks from now yeah we can do that sold sold out. Oh my God. What? It was a live nation event and I think the moral of the story is they don't need to market that guy.

Just announce it. Like you don't need to put up a billboard. You don't need six months build up. Yeah. Well, I'm glad you got tickets, right? Because you were kind of the first one to bring it up and then I was getting started. Brett and I both left the studio that day with tickets in our possession. He's faking this card's not working. This damn thing. The internet's not. I was very upset. But yes. Got in. Yeah. Greased your way in.

I did not grease my way in. I paid for tickets. I went with Rhett. It was good times. There was eight of us. A little markup on those tickets, Retro. Just a tough ticket to get.

I looked yesterday. Jeez, Red's asking me a hundred more than what they're selling for now. I haven't committed. What do I do here? Yeah. I'm like,

you know, I did drink about a hundred bucks of booze out of Rhett's cabinet the other day. That's another hundred a hundred a few. It's probably a little more. All's clear. Yeah. Awesome.

Awesome. That was a, I don't know if it was bucket list, but pretty, it's pretty high on my list. Happy to, happy to say, yeah, that we saw him. Happy to say, for sure. I told my wife, Merry Christmas on the way home. Nice. I think she got it. Yeah. That'll fly on the 25th. I remember we went to, here's a selfie of, nope, can't use your phone, never mind. I remember when we went? I used it for the birthday. Yeah. That was for you. Yeah. Have you been to the with the no camera things before or no.

Is that new to you or no? I know a lot of people are like, what? You got to put your phone in a case? Can't use your phone? Because obviously comedians don't want to get canceled. They want to be able to have some risky jokes or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, that was my first time like that.

Okay. There was there were other like little like small things, like a movie premiere where you leave your freaking phone at the door or something. But. Okay. No enough. And I think that's standard now. I know.

I would think so. Yeah. Kevin Hart does that all the time. and Chappelle for sure. I do wonder what it's, for those who don't know what we're talking about, when you walk in, they give you like a,

if you think of like a coozy for your, for your can, it's kind of that smushy material. It's just a sleeve. You put your phone in there and then some kind of a lock. Yeah, magnetic door. You got to get the. Yeah.

So you can't access your phone. So is it so that you're present and just only paying attention during the show or is it so you're not recording? the. And so you don't record these guys in a joke out of context gets them canceled or a media firestorm. I don't think Dave's worried about getting canceled anymore. No.

He's been canceled and came back. It's probably good policy for comics though. Do we and I, is that, are they recording stuff for a special? I wonder. Like that Netflix said that Netflix intro kind of thing. I don't know. Yeah. That guy in the upper deck though.

He sure did. That was half the night. They say at the start, hey. No phones and shut the F up. Don't be calling and cat calling and heckle just shut up. I got in a listen. Five seconds. Oh, gosh,

G. Mike, I went with my kid. He's like, what is wrong with people? Why do people have? I don't know. I don't know. So one guy staggering out. I'm like, is that the guy that yelled?

That could be him. Hey, yeah, you're bad, man. Shut the, shut on. It's probably Pete DeBoer. There's not Pete. There. up. Hey, Pete, shut up. Get a job, Pete. Hey, get a job. Tomorrow is Thursday.

We got a great Thursday nighter. Thanksgiving. Thursday night football. Going to Rets house. Going back to Rets? Yeah, man. Yeah, live stream. Yeah, wait. Go until 2 a.m.

Jack, the shovel is going to be there. Should just mind your piece and cues. Control yourself, for Christ's sakes. There you go. All good? That's probably fine. See you buddies.
