John?
Yeah.
Oh, hey, Rhett.
Watching a chocolate sword.
A what?
Excalibur and chocolate.
You know, you are not one of those people that does well with idle time, I don't think.
No.
He's, uh, you'll see him once he gets in that reclined phone up position, there's all kinds of news he's scrolling through.
It's like, geez, do you know what else will kill you?
Fake news, all kinds of.
French dip tacos.
These look good, too.
There's something else that'll cause high blood pressure.
Can you believe that?
I have blood pressure, please.
Yes.
There we go.
Welcome to the show,
Barnburner Wednesday.
It's,
we're here in the Tower Chrysler Studios,
Tower Chrysler,
Consumer Choice Award winner.
Just, you know,
voted Calgary's favorite
Chrysler Dodge dealer.
Just the best.
That's all there is.
Yeah.
Just the favorite,
just their,
if they had to pick out of any of them,
they pick Tower Chryser.
What's their motto?
The best there is,
the best there was,
the best there of the Robby?
That's, yeah,
that's right.
Tower.
For sure.
Yeah.
Nailed it.
So, rumor that we may be actually at Tower tomorrow,
that the Tower Chrysler Studios may actually emanate right from Tower Chrysler.
Where are we hearing this rumor?
I love it.
It sounds amazing.
Why not?
Nice to stop in.
Say how to the fellas?
How did Nicky, Serge?
Boys will be excited.
Big goofy Aaron will be easier to take because oilers are out.
Oh, God, I'll be happy to see him for all that.
Yeah.
If they were playing right now,
I'd be easier to take or will they be on you about it?
About what?
No, if they were still in.
I mean, he's a nice guy, but it's...
He's an honest fly.
You just know it, right?
It's like when...
It's just a little easier.
Remember how beautiful it was here Monday?
Hop, skipping a jump in everyone's step and just no more nattering of, man,
the second dynasty, you know?
Like, it's just nice to be done with that shit.
Yeah.
Not as nice out there now.
No, it's not.
It's gross.
Taking a couple stepbacks from Monday.
Yeah, kind of gross.
So how do you, if you could back, like, trace like the breadcrumbs?
How did you get to a chocolate sword?
I don't know.
I was just, is it a movie?
Is it a physical piece of chocolate?
Is it a sword?
It's like a massive, yeah.
It's quite.
Like Bernard Calibo.
They put too much effort into it, though.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, why are you making this massive X caliber duplicated?
Is it just massive retail price?
is this a collectible item?
Who the hell's buying it?
Well, you're looking at it.
You're closer than we are to buying it.
It was pure boredom because sitting here talking to you idiots, it's not rather stare at my phone.
Jack's no better.
I only said about three or four times.
So, hey, what do we want to talk about today?
Anything we want to talk about?
Crickets.
No, I see we've got to rock the vote.
You've got to rock the vote.
Rock the vote?
What are we?
There's a big vote coming up.
Is there?
We're rocking the vote for the coyotes arena?
I feel like we've missed.
Somebody didn't rock the vote last.
That one got rocked.
They did.
It got rock slid.
That thing is caved in now.
Not good.
Not for hockey fans.
Well, let's wait.
Well, yeah, if you're a fan of the coyotes, I guess it's not good.
But maybe it's excellent for the league.
I think big pitcher, it was only going to work in that market if you got a real NHL rank,
which is like, it sounds like you're the word.
That's not hyperbole.
Same as Calgary.
They were playing way out in the suburbs.
It wasn't the rink that was a problem.
It's not the 4,500.
They've got shady-ass ownership group.
But long-term big pitcher, if you have a contributing NHL-sized rink in the league is, you know, 32 of 32, not 31 of 32.
That would be a good thing for the league.
And it's not going to happen there anytime soon.
So the question will be where and when?
It's got a Houston.
Houston's ready to moral.
Like, remember how quick when Stephen Brunt moved the jets back?
to Winnipeg?
Yeah.
Like that was moving vans overnight and it was done.
That's what they should be doing this morning.
They can do that this offseason with Houston.
And I'm hearing a lot of names like, oh, Salt Lake City and all Kansas City's got a rink.
And, oh, Quebec's got one.
And well, Atlanta might build one.
Houston has everything.
And it's the biggest market of all, massive.
I was just monitoring your accent or your impression there.
Because usually your mouth-breathing hockey fan is different.
Yeah.
They're going to.
They haven't built the rink yet.
They got away three, four years of that.
Let's go.
What about the rink the thrashers are playing in?
I don't know.
That's a good question.
Trashers aren't playing in.
Yeah.
No, but that rink still exists, to Dean's point.
But what was interesting is that Kevin Weeks is tweeting about Atlanta
a month or two ago and you're like,
they have a rink already.
What is a new ring?
Who's coming out to the west?
You can't have the numbers are finally.
Let me take a look.
We're almost balanced now.
Like once you get, if you moved,
it's another reason why Houston works so well.
They're actually a central zone.
Is Arizona in the west?
Yes, that's correct.
Yeah, they moved from the Pacific to the central.
So if they move to Atlanta, we'd want to take an Eastern conference team.
We don't want to move to Atlanta.
That's a Nashville.
Nashville's already in the west.
Detroit could come back in theory.
Columbus?
Really happy.
Seabus.
Oof, they'd hate that.
Yeah, it's just really easy.
Houston checks all the boxes.
You don't need to realign.
They have a billionaire that's interested in a,
NHL team. The rink is perfect for hockey. You don't have to make a single change to the building,
unlike a lot of these other NBA buildings with impeded hockey views. There's only 4,000 seats you can
see one of the next. What is the building? It's Toyota Center. It's where the Rockets play. It's
downtown Houston. The HL had a hockey team there for a long time that drew very nicely at big events.
They have a rich hockey history. The Houston Aeros were there. Gordie Howe played there.
Gordy Howe did. WHA championships. Houston's a sneaky solid hockey market. There's nothing
missing. And yes, of course, they love going to the rank in Quebec City, but what about Gary
Betman tells you he's going to move a team to Quebec City? From Scottsdale. Yeah. And again,
you got alignment issues. They do have a rank in Quebec City. That doesn't mean Gary wants to
put a team there. Do they have corporate dollars that'll fund? Not as much as you have in Houston,
but there is, I mean, it would be Winnipeg all over with a little less corporate maybe, which is
Like you can do, but you're not adding a potentially dynamic team.
Houston could be a monster.
Quebec is not in the running.
No, they're there to be a threat for teams.
When shit goes sideways, you can threaten to move to Quebec and get Rina's built.
Looking at a map here of Houston.
Yeah, yeah.
That rink is right downtown.
Like I said, right downtown in Houston.
Yeah.
And it says here, capacity for hockey, 17,800.
Yeah.
It's a hockey rink.
It's a perfect NHR ring.
opened in 2003.
I've been there a dozen times.
It's a great hockey rink.
I just want, if we're going to do this,
we'll rubber stamp it here and just get it done.
Call Gary.
So,
because you know what,
Gary's,
this is a big loss for Gary.
Gary's had to put in some shasty ownership groups for a long time,
one after another,
to try to keep this thing papered together
and duct taped together in Phoenix.
It's the first time last night.
He's publicly spoken about a future not in,
Phoenix. We're like, we're steadfast committed, we're remain committed.
There was none of that comment.
Move that team. It's ready to move.
Done. They're ready to move. The discussion is
over. That was it. That was the coyotes yesterday.
They're dead now. The arena
has also hosted the ninth annual
Latin Grammy Awards back in 2008.
Smooth. Shakira, Shakira.
Gabriel Iglesias, Netflix special,
one show fits all was filmed there in 2019.
You don't say? Yeah.
That's Enrico's boy.
Is it?
the Kellogg's tour of gymnastics champions was there in 2016.
It's a who's who.
Dominique does.
Yeah, yeah.
Some UFC events.
Many, many, many have been held there.
And it is one of the, uh, I looked this morning, one of the most populated cities in the United States.
Greater area is the top five in the States.
Seems to check a lot of boxes.
Now, I guess the thing.
Taxes are good.
That's an natural arrival for Dallas.
I mean, is there tax?
Is that Texas?
There's no state tax.
Taxes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No state taxes.
Humid though, Dean.
Is it?
Humid in the summer.
You're going to be swimming.
You're not going to like it.
Two shirts.
You're near Galveston.
Isn't that right?
Fuck, I nearly said, let's, we're moving the barn.
We're going.
Let's go.
And then you said,
what's what Francis said about 15 years ago here, right?
I was going to say, look at you, hey,
you crushed Francis all those years about
team moving to Houston, now here we are.
Well, I never said, why did you yell at Alex today.
I got awkward.
I had to take my headset off.
I was telling me there's lots of rinks like Ottawa
way out in the middle of nowhere.
You aren't going to have any of that either, were you?
Two now.
You fucking grabbed them by the throat and put him through a table.
Yes.
Over his rink take.
What kind of?
It was pure pender.
Pulled your feet to the fire on that shit.
Was that, Alex?
How dare you?
About that.
He tried to suggest that the Philadelphia ring.
The Canucks don't fucking play in Aftown town.
That's right.
Not Chilawak.
Jesus.
Not hope.
Sorry.
Not Langley.
God almighty.
Not Poco, not Richmond, not White Rock.
These are the types of things that do oddly stir your pot.
I know.
And it's just because I think there's some two-foot puts in pro sports that this league misses.
And when you allow people to buy teams.
It's not Alex's fault.
No, no, I know.
But this is why I get heated about rinks.
He's sitting in his house in Ottawa with dogs and he's got his best young child.
Alex was an innocent bystander in my anger against the league.
And I'm sorry.
It was friendly fire.
Scattered.
but like it's there's a template of how things work and when you allow owners to come in and use a team as a pawn for a real estate play don't be surprised when it doesn't work that's what's happened in Phoenix and again I'm just it's the level to which you're invested in all of it that yeah the you get really in Lendale has you outraged now the real question well there's three for me but the first is are we going to be able to get to that fucking rink and tempi that we want to go to before they're out of there no or have they played their last game gone they're why we're why we
would you go back for a year?
And this is,
I agree with you.
I think if they can get it done,
they get it done.
So now the other two questions are,
okay,
this owner's a scumbag
and they've helped propped up the team
and no one wants to go in business with this guy,
which I think is a big reason
why this vote failed.
The city of Glendale literally said,
we will stop taking your money,
like take less money in
to not have to deal with you.
That's how much of a turdy is.
What does the league do selling this thing?
Because they don't want him
going to a bigger market.
Can you force him to sell it?
Is the league already covering some of his costs?
And then what would a relocation fee be?
Because recall the league did charge the Winnipeg group relocating from Atlanta to Winnipeg.
So there's a few ways Gary can get this to a nice number that he wants, which would be probably
around a billion dollars.
You can say, okay, it's 600 for the team, 400 million relocation fee.
And also a relocation fee would be split amongst owners, which everyone would like,
whereas the owner himself would be like, no, no, no, I want the big franchise number.
So this is minor stuff, but like that's what I'm curious about.
Not where they're gone.
Like, I think they're gone.
Well, you did just ask if they were going to play in that rink again.
They're gone.
Yeah, when and where?
That's, that was the, is it Houston and is it next year?
I'd be great with that.
I still wonder if there's part of Gary that it's like, there's got to be one more crack here.
This was it.
I was listening to Friedman this morning talking the big Johnny Big Bucks that bought the Phoenix Suns there recently.
It's like, do you approach him with the overtures?
Hey, what if we, you've got the building.
It's not great for hockey, but over the next two years,
if we retrofit that thing and get up to speed,
they just renovated it.
They just removed that thing in there.
The footprint center, I believe it's called.
They just sunk a bunch of money in a rental.
And so if you have 3,000 seats that don't see one of the nets,
is that helping hockey?
Or is it the same joke that they left?
I don't know how you reno it.
It's, yeah, it's hundreds of millions if you're going to try to make it big enough for hockey.
I mean, if you're talking about moving,
if he's going to be the NHL team owner
and if that's a thing, then yeah, you would
invest in that.
If I'm Gary, I would have exercised
that option a long time ago
and I know there's been a change in the Sun's ownership
but there's been no interest from the Suns
in prior ownership to do have anything to do with.
Which is why they're saying.
This guy has just been installed.
He's the new owner.
Is there an appetite?
Feels like a long shot.
Yeah.
And again, it was the only time
we've heard Gary make a comment about
an arena situation in Phoenix and not reiterate his commitment to the market.
He didn't do that yesterday.
First time ever.
Did they get...
I know.
Sorry.
Moving to Houston, calm the arrows.
Dallas has a natural rival.
Let's go.
Yeah.
My apnea is kicking in.
I heard it.
Updoor dental.
Jesus.
You've been in town for how long you have not gone to see Dr. Jay?
It's two-fifteen.
God, figured out.
It's two-fifth.
Pain-free.
Topical.
It's a lair-lator laser.
So, yeah, that's,
That's great.
Yeah.
Can't believe I didn't get to vote on that.
Rock the vote.
I'd say it was a bunch of old blue hairs that went and did all the voting.
Apparently Tempe's pretty old.
Well, old people always vote.
Yeah, that's the thing.
Where's the young vote?
And it's like what else is going on?
Oh shit, was that today?
I was out, you know, hacky sack and skateboarding.
Yeah, or you're like, kind of used your vote, kid.
Your hair's on fire with three kids doing shit.
Who knows?
But yeah, old people vote.
That's not just in Tempe.
Good thing they moved out of Winnipeg, though.
if we want to really go back to square one.
If we really want that's really winding it back.
What year was that?
96.
97.
So that's a Gary move.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because we talked about yesterday.
The Final Four is all comprised of Gary fingerprint Sunbelt teams.
God, you hate Batman.
Don't hate him at all.
Just pointing out.
You talk about him all the time.
There's heavy disdain when you mention.
You always talk.
Gary.
Well, how many other teams, oh, other leagues, how much money they've made.
You hate Batman.
hate would be the wrong word.
I just think that people say he's the greatest commissioner in this and I'm like, nah,
there's a lot of mistakes.
Like, again, what have you done and you've been committed to this 15, 20 years in Phoenix?
How's it gone?
You don't care about this stuff.
I do.
And I'm not trying to make you care about it, but I'm interested in the business of pro sport.
Some people, they just want to turn on the TV and see the team colors.
To where it was, that team, they weren't getting a rink in Winnipeg.
I mean, they had to move them somewhere.
Phoenix has always been one of the more
desirable
cities every other sports team
is there
it's a good market
see why they try
it's not a market issue
and then every time it failed
there was a pretty good reason why
it was either the building or the owner
or can we get a built
all that sort of thing so I get why they tried
to get it done but
it has a lot of swings
it's a lot of owners
well and it's not just owners
but the type of owner
there's a lot of savvy business people.
They weren't looking for them.
There's been a lot of poor ownership.
The Calgary group throughout the league.
Yeah.
That's right.
The boots still baggio.
There's a pursuit in Long Island.
Yeah.
Well, that's how they ended up with Bearaway in Phoenix.
So he was involved with trying to get the islanders around the time that Charles
Wang was there, failed, and then got into some sort of yelling match with the league.
He wanted to sue them over some negotiation.
And they said, oh, no, no, no, come here.
We got a team for you knowing it was a tire fire and he was a moron.
And they basically bankrupted him and took over more and more of the team as they paid its bills and didn't have to deal with his legal shit anymore.
So then question, if the coyotes are going to move to Houston and into this building.
Shane Donne's going to be pissed.
Oh, poor Shane Don't.
And his kid got drafted.
They were waiting for his kid.
I feel for the fans, I don't want any of this to come across as this city doesn't deserve it.
They're not good enough fans.
It's none of that shit.
They've had awful ownership and bad ring situations the whole time.
So if they're going to move to Houston,
when the NDP win the election and shut down the building,
the new building here, they kibosh that,
and then the flames move, now where are they moving?
Because I thought they were moving to Houston.
It was a line item in their budget.
You're not paying attention.
I don't think it gets kiboshed.
Pike was tweeting yesterday.
I'm not equivalent with Pike on arena stuff.
Yeah, it's believe politicians.
I'll get you far.
Well, they're on both sides.
Not one party of politicians.
I'm not picking, you know,
here are the good guys, here are the bad guys.
Like, I think no matter who gets in,
this rink's done.
Like getting done, not good.
No, I'm with you.
I hope I'm with you.
God.
I'm hoping here to see it.
Talking with Pike about it,
like this is a really big thing for the city.
There are massive infrastructure transit issues
around where they're going to put the rink.
It needs to get done.
It isn't,
and that's why I,
think the way that this this arena deal came together with the provincial money,
none of the provincial money is for the rink or the practice facility or anything that
theoretically is tied to something the flames are monetizing. It's, hey, Calgary has this
infrastructure issue in Victoria Park. They need a couple more underpasses under the rail lines,
easier access in and out of Stampede Park. That's a flames issue, but it's a stampede issue.
It's an area issue. The city wants this done, period. And they have some leverage with the
province saying, hey, we have infrastructure needs.
Victoria Parks a priority.
So I think it's too simple to say one party rink gets done, other party rink doesn't get
done.
Yeah, you idiot.
Why did you say that?
Yeah, I don't know why I said that.
Sorry, Ryan.
Anyway, Ryan Pike, Flings Nation, all things ring.
He's got the-all-Ryan's no, just find a Ryan.
He's writing a book on a rink.
So, 96-97.
Did you just say he's writing a book on a rink?
he's documented the entire process from 2004 till today on how this is coming together.
I'm going to talk to this boy.
Well, they might put you to sleep or you might love it.
Depends on Keenya.
I'm not going to love it.
I'm going to talk to him about making better choices in life.
He has some interesting choices in life.
He's unique.
It's definitely nothing I'd expect you to do.
It's very much something I'd expect Pike to do.
He's not an old blue hair that needs to be writing books on arenas.
He's also writing a book, I think, on the...
the history of GMs over the course of the history of this franchise as well.
He's got like shitty GMs.
Come on, fun.
Some good ones too.
Coming in on Friday?
So the coyotes.
Off they go, Phoenix.
96, 97, their first season.
And if this is their final season in 22, 23,
they won two playoff series both coming in the same post season.
They got to the Western Conference Final with Mike Smith and Net.
Dustin Brown and the LA Kings rolled them up.
2011-12 season.
They beat Chicago round one, Predators Round 2,
and then lost in five to the Kings.
That's it for series wins, all time.
That is it.
Frank had it in an article that he wrote.
I want to see if I can pull it up,
but the opening paragraph was quite something.
He talked about in the history of the coyotes,
today is the biggest day.
And then he went on to say,
and it's not a really rich history,
given they've had more bankruptcies
than playoff series wins
and more owners than, you know, trips to the play.
It was, it's, it's been tough.
It's been a real tough.
Made the playoffs in each of the first four seasons got bounced in round one each year.
Then missed, back in, lost in the first round of San Jose.
Miss, miss, lockout, four more years of missing.
Jesus, that's like seven years.
Gratz.
Oh, man.
Yeah, Wainer was there.
That was part of the real estate play.
We'll get Wayne out there.
We'll build a bunch of condos and some malls and shopping centers.
Who cares with this hockey team?
We've got to build this community.
2010, losing 7 in round one to Detroit.
2011, swept by Detroit in round one.
Then that run.
Oh, man.
They win against Chicago and Nashville.
It's a good Chicago team that year to give them credit.
And then miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss.
Won the qualifying round.
that little playin, uh, playing little dealie there.
Where they forgot to bring per diem for the players.
Whoops.
Beat Nashville.
Oh, we,
all were the players spending it on.
They don't need it.
Well,
I think it was team meals and things like it.
Like it was,
it was a complete cluster.
And that's kind of been consistent with this ownership group.
They had their own vendors suing them.
Oh.
And this year.
Uh,
well,
and then,
yeah,
so then they won that play in round,
then lost in round one to the avalanche.
and then three straight misses on the way out.
Man, that's tough.
It is not a rich history for the review.
And I've found the frank quote.
Tuesday is the biggest day in Arizona Coyotes franchise history.
Granted, there haven't been many to write home about in 27 years.
More bankruptcies than playoff series wins
and nearly as many postseason appearances as ownership groups.
The Coyotes have been the NFL's definition of an also-ran
propped up by Betman's steadfast commitment to keeping hockey
in the fifth biggest market in the U.S.
It's hard to be focused on hockey.
It's nice out.
The courses are open.
God, and you know what?
I was just thinking about it because,
and you know how I love to do it.
Of all those years where you were that shitty,
you didn't pick first overall once.
Then they never pick one.
They didn't pick first overall once.
I wonder who their highest pick would be of all time, Dean.
Third overall this last year, Logan Cooley,
11th overall, fifth overall.
Keller was what, seven?
seventh overall in 2015
Dylan Strom third overall
I took a while
Max Domey 12
Perlini 12
Henrik Samuelson 27
Brandon Gormley
Flame pick
13th
I'll tell you what
OEL 6th
Kyle Turris 3
so the highest is a third overall
pick twice
Goosh
yeah you pick third overall
you get Strom and Turris
that's not exactly
Leon Drysidl at 3 is it
I don't feel bad for the coyotes.
I think if you got a new owner into Houston and next year,
I think this team is like primed to be good very quickly.
Yes, they have so much cap space.
They have a bajillion draft picks.
And they've got to get to the cap floor,
all these dead bodies they've collected that their contracts are rolling off the books
in the next now, next year, year after.
Like it's actually a really, really good spot.
if you had an owner willing to spend.
They don't have that because they're playing in a 4,500 seat arena and the owner's cheap.
That could all change like that.
You been to Houston?
Never been to Houston.
Yeah, it's not as sexy as Austin or is necessarily as cool as Dallas, but...
San Antonio is a very small little spot you want to be in San Antonio, like the Riverwalk area is gorgeous and all that.
You got the Alamo.
It feels like a tiny place, but it sprawls forever, apparently.
So not Houston, though.
No, Houston's, it's a good city.
Houston's a busy city.
Yeah.
It's big.
Huge energy.
Yeah.
It's lots of Houston, Calgary ties.
They go, Katie, Texas is close to Houston.
No, it's greater Dallas, isn't it?
Is it?
Yeah.
I just remember him because he was.
He's a Houston guy.
Houston guy.
I'll check you.
You might be right now.
Well, okay.
I'm fine.
I mean, what the hell difference is, I like.
Scottstale's great, but I want.
I wasn't driving out to Glendale to watch a game,
and the 4,600-seat arena would have been fun,
but I can watch the college play.
People have said it for 20 years.
Just put a rink in Scottsdale.
They never got it done, and now they're gone.
If it's in Scottsdale, there's no problem with hockey.
Yeah, Alex, you idiot?
Put your outskirts.
It doesn't work.
I stayed in a hotel.
We went to a Monday night football game in Glendale,
and it was booked like crazy.
Oh, football works out, too.
That's right.
So eight times year people will go there.
That's, yeah.
Yeah, Rhett.
Eight times year.
So, you idiot?
I know.
I mean, alternate.
You idiot.
Yeah, it's eight and a half a year.
So we wanted a hotel at a reasonable rate.
It was the first game of the year for the Cardinals, Cardinals Chargers.
We were maybe a kilometer from the football stadium.
So like walking distance.
That's where I was supposed to stay.
And it was like, are we going to get shanked on the way here?
and why has the deadbolt been pushed through the frame in four different spots already?
Like how many times has the door been kicked in?
Why would you drive for 40 minutes from Scottsdale to go there on a Tuesday night to watch Carolina's only visit?
Or better yet.
Why did you get off your wallet, you tight prick?
I said it was busy day.
Yeah, I hear you.
We were golfing.
I wouldn't stay out there either, pinner.
I stayed at W.
You did stay.
That's right.
You told SportsNets, stick it.
I'm staying at the W.
51st.
Can we go through that again?
No.
We've done it a lot, even on this show.
I'm just trying to, because where did you fly in from?
California.
And then it was Dallas afterwards, right?
I skipped that.
Yeah, you were done at that point.
I think you were supposed to go there.
Fly into Arizona.
No.
Flew into California.
Then how'd you get the?
I had to fly to.
To Phoenix.
Yeah.
Oh, I see from California.
So you fly from.
You fly into Phoenix.
He's doing color on the broadcasts.
Yeah.
The team hotel is beside the rink at Glendale.
You're like,
uh,
kind of like the W.
So you get a room at the W and stay there.
Which is not close to the club.
Not close.
It's again,
what, 40 minutes,
half an hour?
So you have a room sitting empty.
It's well worth it.
Oh,
at the Renaissance.
You're at the dub.
And then you submit the receipt
for your room at the W
on top of the empty room
at the Renaissance.
No, I don't want to see that.
I thought I called and canceled.
I don't know.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
And then you worked the game against the coyotes.
Mm-hmm.
And then the team went to Dallas.
I'm good.
And you're like, eh, I'm going home.
You know what?
When you find your spot and you find your people, you don't want to leave.
He was in his happy place at the W.
God.
That pool is supposed to be sensational.
What insight was I going to give in Dallas that was going to be so hard hitting?
I might as well go home.
Did you go home or did you stay at the W another day or two?
The bomber was in town.
I ran to the bomber.
Oh, bomber.
He'd be bombed.
Oh, he was.
Oh, wow.
Bomber loves it.
Yeah.
He cooked the old goose.
Well, see you, coyotes.
It's fine.
Didn't like the...
I never went to a game there.
I wish we got to that damn rink and tempi.
That's my only regret about this whole thing.
You know what, though?
It would have been one of those things.
Go watch the Calgary Canucks.
That's the people.
People who went to the exact opposite.
They're like, it's nuts.
Go if you can.
Yeah, I'm not those people, though.
That's true.
You have to want to leave your home and go to live sporting events to want to go to the rink.
Wow, this is small rink.
And it's loud and there is, it's great.
By the third period, it's like, this is the flames and the coyotes.
That is exactly what this is.
That is exactly what this is.
So.
All right, let's go through the greatest coyotes ever.
I was thinking, there's the highlight.
A round three appearance once.
Shane Don't has to be the greatest coyote ever.
Yep.
Second.
However, you have to then think, because a lot of those
wasn't, wasn't Datsuk and Pronger
and weren't some of those guys.
Yeah, they never put the gear on, but they were on payroll.
The very, very illustrious group of Hall of Famers
that they ate dead men.
money. Hosa? Did Hosa get there? Maybe even Hosa?
Maybe.
Yeah, it was, uh, the most
Hall of Famers without ever skating in a game.
So this year they have Jacob Vorichek, Shea Weber, Andrew Ladd and Brian Little.
Come on, really? Oh, yeah, this year.
They get $20 million.
They also are retaining salary on Patrick Kane, who worked through there before on his
way to the New York Rangers. I mean, what a star-studded lineup.
Yeah.
And it was the Datsuk one where I think it was the swap first rounders and Arizona had to take Datsuk.
With that pick, they took Chikrin and Detroit ended up getting a different demand.
It's just the money laundering center.
It's really awesome.
It's a transactional.
Yeah, it's, yeah, totally.
It's like, we'll take our 5% and here's your early payday advance.
And it was Dennis Cholololololovsky that got taken by Detroit.
That's interesting.
They were so committed to winning.
They tried to cheat with the combines or the test.
That's right, yeah.
Yeah.
We got to get these guys in the ice.
The John.
Four,
you do not care about winning and losing.
The Janka chapter, yeah.
What the hell are you?
Like what?
27-year-old GM.
He could have cheat?
We just really need some extra.
We're here to win.
Like Belichick, damn it.
I'll find a way to get a good.
It's like a kid's team.
It's like, well, we got some ice.
We don't really, we play a game already that day.
Ah, but we can't waste the ice.
You can't waste.
But I see you, I think you'd appreciate that.
It's not even.
circumventing the cap. It's within the rules of the cap that they went to great lengths.
It was a lot of brains that found that. If you're Bill Armstrong, you've done a great job of getting
to the floor, not spending much of your owner's money and accumulating draft picks.
It's just tough if you're a fan. You've really not a lot of...
Bill, your whole role of success is about to change because you're going to have to work this team now.
You're actually got some money to spend.
Like shit happened. Yeah. You... It's like when
Slats left Edmonton and went to the Rangers.
Just an open checkbook.
Seven ownership groups in Phoenix.
Who was your favorite?
Three bankruptcies.
Like the Calgary guys,
they were the only guys that knew what they?
Calgary guys.
Yeah, but that was a total shit play.
They got mad at us.
Oh, it was brilliant.
It was genius.
You know, Bob, before you go talking about stuff,
you should really.
All right.
What did you say about them?
They weren't going to fucking make it work.
It was a financial play.
They were able to get it cheap and sell it for more.
That's all.
They were like, yeah, let's buy it for $130 and sell it for two.
I like the trucker, Jerry Moyes.
He went bankrupt.
That was the financial or with the real estate collapse that got him.
He got screwed by the big, yeah.
But he was the owner, I believe, that they turned this whole thing into a real estate play
and paid Wayne to coach and all that.
It was around the time that his wife was caught gambling.
Remember that?
Yeah, talk it too.
Talk.
Yeah, go ahead.
It's fine now.
We just bet on us to lose all the time.
It's like Pete Rose Benton to win.
We just knew the coyotes were going to lose.
anyways we're bad one to lose so so happy boolin he was good for a while oh el was very good for a while
how long was erinick there that would be chuck i remember he went there i think like right at right
when they moved because as what people in winnipeg were like oh sure now you get out of you guys like
fucking roanick of course um roanick was not going to winnipeg sir no chance no zero no no
That's fair.
I'm going to pull up the all-time leading scores for the franchise.
That would help narrow with the conversation.
Big Walt.
Shane Dome.
It's not a long list.
It's not really a very long list.
And again, when you've made it out of the first round once in 27 years,
like that's got to be the most futile record in pro sports over the last quarter century.
Well, the saber is setting records for it.
like the time between playoff appearances.
But overall, I think they've been there more over the last,
well, since the coyotes have been there in Phoenix,
for sure the Sabres have been to the playoffs more.
Again, it's not a...
Shane Donne, OEL, Jeremy Roanick, top three scores of all time.
And it's chain and then the Grand Canyon in second place.
Donne has almost a thousand.
Grand Canyon is close, too.
It is. Take a chopper into there.
It's closer to Vegas.
Awesome, really.
OEL has 600 points back almost of Dohn and he's second all time.
Such a good guy too, eh?
Shane Done?
Fuck, I love that guy.
Huge ass.
Lots of squats.
His trunk is massive.
Clayton Keller's climbing that list.
I was going to say Keller's probably top five.
Nipping up there.
Just past Keith Kachuk.
Did you see the tweet he put out yesterday?
Oh, he's sad.
It's in the Pender, brother.
There's a nice snarky response to it.
So, Holmes's going for sale.
Maybe we'll get a deal.
Ladislav Nagy, Keith Yandel,
Damon Lankow.
Lankow.
Thanks.
Derek Morris went there, former Flames grade.
Yeah.
Goligowski.
Jovo cop.
How long was Joe?
He paid so much money not to play.
Antoine Vermet.
He's destined that contract retro.
Lori Kropakovsky.
Jovo played there.
What are you talking?
No, I'm saying, what was that contract?
Because he was basically done and then they threw.
$16 million.
for the back for like the teeing off on the 17th hole of this career wow
is new hips that jovanosky yeah like how do you get how do you get that's a bad
gym probably my goodness gracious he actually went on and played after phoenix that's wild
yeah he played to florida he just lost three seasons for florida 4.1 million dollars
all right per we're bored yet jack there's your
memory lane for the coyotes.
We don't need to continue this.
T's and P's moving to Houston. There's no sense
having this out in the interwebs.
This is us doing nothing.
What do you want to talk about?
Fender.
You want to talk about me?
I think you should get a haircut.
Green drop.
Get green drop in your life.
Have the best looking yard in the neighborhood.
It's super easy because there's nothing to it.
You just go on greendrop.com.ca.
and I'll take the
this package right there
and then they come
and it's the micronutrients
and it's the weed control
and it's 100% guaranteed
the greenkeepers roll up
in one of those fancy rigs
application done
safe for pets
a couple minutes they're in and out
and all you need to do is water
and cut and it will be lush
and healthy and thick
and ooh baby
they pop by a couple days ago
the signs up yes
yeah
buzz boss too
get rid of cut my grass
hmm
they don't know
to cut
Like that.
They've got the soil booster.
If you get in for the beautiful premium package,
a little aeration, some overseeding.
The overseeding, that's what keeps it healthy.
You think, oh, it's my lawn.
Why do I need to, come on.
Greendrop.com at Greendrop LTD on the,
on the Soche.
And if you are on YouTube's,
click that QR code.
It's going to save you a little bit of money there for being a fan
of the show. Is anybody really a fan of this show?
You don't think so,
but yes.
Green drop.
Gibby,
when are we golfing?
Oh,
he's been asking us for three years
and you said no every single year.
Well, this is,
I mean,
this new life we're in.
Oh,
okay.
I'm not getting up at three
in the goddamn morning.
He's a golf shirt on.
He's ready to.
Let's go.
That's on the record,
right?
He can't take that back now.
He'll fake an injury or something.
Like when you race the cow?
Shoulders.
It wasn't faked.
I'm still crippled up from the,
I don't have the flexibility I used to
because I was sprinting.
Don't sprint.
Remember we were talking
as last week?
Clark Welham was in a car accident.
Yes.
What's the...
When?
Is he all right?
Mother's Day.
Got absolutely...
Like days ago.
Smoked.
All the kids, three boys in the back.
I'm gonna decide him.
Everyone okay?
A couple loop-de-loops.
Yeah, they all walked away.
Holy.
Crazy.
You ever had a...
Did he haul the driver out and fucking dummy him?
I think he knew the guy.
Dumbium?
So, answer the question.
If I didn't have bad hoofs, I'd chase you down and beat the piss up.
Are they good hoofs now?
They're all healed up.
You ever been in a big bang up?
Not a car wreck.
Of course, I was hit on my bicycle when I was a child.
What?
Please do tell.
No, that's all right.
Yeah.
What?
Me?
No, not yet.
We hit the ditch at like 1.30 trying to pass a car.
Lockwood.
Pardon me?
There.
Jack.
Up in Fort St. John and a radio.
station vehicle when the morning guy was aggressively trying to pass on icy roads, but it was fine.
It was like into the snow.
Yeah.
But definitely could have hit the car instead.
But that's not a wreck.
That's hitting the ditch.
Exactly.
I was saying that's like as close as I've been for two months.
There was a girl when I was in grade 12.
She rolled, it felt like a car a week.
It's like, what are you doing?
Because we would drive stupid as kids.
I don't even know how you could, how you'd do it.
Like you'd have to almost on purpose, mad it and then just crank the wheel.
Yeah, going into the ditch.
How the hell?
It's the third car you've rolled since Christmas.
God.
She's fine.
Crazy.
How's her insurance, right?
Yeah, I'm not sure.
It's very good.
So anyway, remember, Liz, were we here?
It was earlier this week, was that?
I don't know what you were saying,
I hope that's not the case.
We were really hoping that the rumors about the Calgary Flames
not allowing permission to Brad for living to interview for other jobs.
It would be unfortunate if it was true.
If that were true,
really hoping that's not the case.
And we don't know.
Oh, now we do.
We don't know.
But we don't know.
Because we were talking about this.
You were part of this conversation.
Yeah, it wasn't this week.
It was last week.
I just feel like I was looking at you with me.
I was looking on the screen.
Anyway, because we were really, really hoping.
Pierre Lebrun from the Athletic and TSN,
he has been able to confirm a number of candidates for the Pittsburgh
Penguin's vacant job.
Mark Bergevin, Eric Tulski.
Tulski.
Tulski!
Tulski!
Get into my office! Tulski!
Peter Shirelli, Stifle, laughter,
Jason Carmanos, and then some other people.
Also, he was told, this is, I'm going to read it,
so I'll give it one of these air quotes.
This is LeBron.
I was also told the Penguins wanted to include Brad Trilliving
as part of their first wave of Zoom interviews,
but the flames denied them permission, apparently,
telling Pittsburgh it would have to wait
until Trillivings contract expired June 30th.
Which is annoying because the draft is two days before that.
Three days before that, 27th, 28th.
That's when you want to have your GM in place.
As the flames have talked about,
amateur meetings coming up in the next week or so,
they want to have a GM in place.
I'll now finish the quote.
Christ.
Which, well, is a little bizarre of the flames.
you ask me, Trilliving is leaving the organization, so why would they care? End quote,
from Pierre LeBron. It doesn't really line up with how business is usually done in this league.
And never mind when someone's worked their tail off for you for what is it, nine years.
Now, what if Brad has crazy intel on who they're drafting?
The amateur meetings are like this week. I don't think that's where you'd finalize your list.
We're really hoping that Pierre LeBron is wrong. Well, I think Sarah Valley,
said the same thing.
Like there's too many insiders here that are...
It'd be odd that he wouldn't be interviewing.
Even if they're wrong,
you would think that Pittsburgh would want to talk to him.
If they aren't.
Well, they certainly, it seems like they do.
So then...
But they can't because they don't...
So something must be up.
By my detective...
Detectiving.
I...
Yeah.
You're sleuthing?
Heavy-duty sleuthing on the matter?
You'd love to be surprised to hear it,
but it's not so out of character
for this organization
that it's not surprising, sadly.
There's a lot of people that they keep on one-year deals all the time
and will not negotiate with until weeks before.
I'm guessing there's still lots of people down there without jobs.
I think.
After June 30th.
I think there's a lot of people that have only got it done in the last month,
but that's a really stressful spot to put a family in.
And if you are good at your job and you love what you do
and you feel like you want to be appreciated at work,
you shouldn't have to be a month away from your contract expiring
before you can get a new one.
and to be fair, like, did Bradshaw Living work his tail off his entire time here?
Yeah, he did.
And did the press release say the mutually parted ways?
Yeah, it did.
So optically, it looks like you're not treating someone well when you had the chance to.
Either to hear Bradshaw Living say, you know what?
That last month.
Don't be.
Keep it.
I will.
If that's the issue, I don't think, yeah, like 112th of his annual salary.
That,
I think you'd trade that for a chance to get.
Like, Maloney said in...
Bologna or Maloney?
Don Maloney, delicious.
When's the last time?
Probably at Mum's house a couple summers ago.
Right?
It's a while ago, geez.
Just a sandwich?
Roll them up.
Are you ever tempted?
You're at the deli?
Yes, I heard someone talking about baloney the other day.
So remember that tire fire press conference they did, John Bean and Don Maloney.
He said, oh, yeah, I think Brad's just...
You know what it does?
it takes me back to school.
I would have baloney and mustard sandwiches.
Lettuce?
On special occasion?
Yeah.
I'd probably yank it off of there.
I liked the crunch.
God.
Mustard?
Is it too late to go back to bologna?
Is bologna out or are we good at bologna?
Bologna's back.
You go buy deli turkey?
Frickin empty your wallet.
Jack, we need shirts made up.
Bologna's back.
Barn burner bologna.
It's back.
My bologna?
Yeah.
You ever had a fried bologna jank?
No, I have not.
You got to snip it.
You got to cut it because it's...
You got to cut it because it'll cone up on you.
I'll have to try it.
Because the outside's different, eh?
Yeah.
Tighten up.
It's like little...
My mom, my dad brought someone home from her work when we were young, like a teenager.
Yeah.
And he didn't tell my mom.
Oh, no.
And all she had was bologna.
Yeah.
But the guy, he was good.
He's like, that is good bologna.
That's great.
I like a good bologna.
Yeah.
You know, baloney gets a bad rap, but if it's a good bologna.
Good people.
It's good bologna.
We got to talk to Greg from Bontan.
Look, they're even on the screen right there.
He's coming down here.
I know.
We got to talk to bring some bologna.
Bontan meets Calgary tradition.
Here is take.
I know.
Since 1921, it's been 10 years.
Come visit at 28 Crowfoot Circle Northwest.
Whether you want bologna or, you've talked gibberish all morning.
AAA Alberta beef, free range poultry, grain fed,
Alberta lamb milk fed veal.
Once again,
Bon Ton voted Calgary Consumer Choice Award winner.
I say.
For best deli meat market.
We get a propane stove out front one day.
Blackstone.
Oh, that's a little, that's pretty high end.
Let's go.
I'll chip in.
We made of money?
I'll chip in.
I'm not, but anyway.
So we get one of the,
if we get a blackstone out front,
burn a blackstone.
We start firing up some baloney.
You see how popular we are.
Oh, man.
Mardaloupe wouldn't know what hit them.
Cops would be pissed.
Which fucking hillbillies are in our frou-frew-nibro neighborhood?
You don't have a license to be heading out.
No, no, no.
There's a time and a place.
There's a Mardi Gras, which happens every summer.
It's a community festival where all the businesses are allowed to participate.
Fried Bologna, courtesy the nation's Flames Nation guys.
We're big community supporters.
We love the community.
Huge in the community.
Who more than us?
No one.
That's who.
What's your Bologna take?
I mean, it's going to be tough to wind things down from that incredible food take.
Pitta report for, of course, Village Honda in the Northwest Automall.
They're your dealership for life up at Village and, of course, that million dollar.
It's a lot of money.
Buy an event continues.
Buying your used vehicle, paying top dollar.
They'll even throw in a tropical cruise to build.
VillageHonda.com is the website.
Inacolatus.
Village Honda presents the Pinder Report.
Mama, my, balona.
My tie?
I'm telling you, you got to watch the Weird Al movie.
It was awesome.
White bread?
Weird Al?
I don't know.
No, trust me.
Because you're thinking like, oh, but it's funny.
He's in on the joke.
Oh, it's so good.
It's so good.
Okay.
Like Madonna's all over him the whole movie.
It's perfect.
Like, it's amazing.
Oh.
Like Madonna in 2023?
It's sort of going back in time, revisiting earlier parts of his career when Madonna would have been maybe the most, you know, eligible bachelor's out on earth kind of thing.
She was a sex symbol.
That's correct, which is why it's funny because we're now played the, not bagpipe, the other way, the accordion.
So.
Yeah.
Very sexual Madonna back in the day.
Like a virgin.
Yeah.
Remember she had the very first time.
The cone bra.
Vogue.
Yeah.
She was in a movie, too.
Body of evidence.
Yeah.
Yes, she was.
Is that Sharon Stone Basic Instinct desk?
It was very much.
You should watch out or she could kill you.
Hell of a time getting there, though.
Fun right till the end.
Until the dying part.
You had to wait, eh?
Yeah.
Then when she kills you, it's probably not as great, but.
Fair.
It's a good way to go out, though, I guess.
Leading up to a hell of time.
It's a Calgary Rangler's game day in Palm Springs.
Dino.
It definitely could have been.
But Mitch Love said, pick your poison.
Although he had to pick, and the poison he picked was playing the first two at home.
It is indeed the second game in the Coachella Valley.
Last one going to triple overtime, a three-two win for the firebirds.
Ranglers need to win to keep their season alive.
If they do, they'll play Friday if they don't.
Curtains.
That would be good for Mitch, though, because then he can interview for the job,
although there's no GMs.
What the hell are they naming a GM?
Like, who are they talking to here?
Why is no one leaking that?
I've got five names for you.
Okay.
Craig Conroy, Brad Pascall, Mark Hunter, Dave Nones, Brandon Prittam.
That's no one new?
Yeah, the Nones one is kind of new.
I don't know that I've also, it's been mentioned they've talked to over.
Vancouver?
Or was he in Toronto?
Both.
They've talked to over 30 people is what is being reported in some spots.
Talk to 30 people?
What for?
It's a lot of free audits.
It's a lot of ideas on the table.
If you were up for, would you be sharing your real hardcore ideas?
I,
what I think we should really start to draft really good players.
If you can draft well.
Yeah.
We're really going to,
because the draft happens every year.
And I think every year,
let's go to the draft.
If you go look back over the history of it,
if you draft well,
you typically.
So if you just pick the good players,
not the bad ones.
Because I've looked here at your draft history,
there's a few misses.
Let's hit on all of our draft picks.
So 30 guys have said that.
that. But to be fair, I mean, you are going to have to try to stand out and say, why would I be
the one for this one of 32 seats for this job in the world? So do give us your best ideas. It's
probably a good idea. That's a game we should play. Give us your best idea. Your interview?
Yeah. We could interview Pinder. You can be Don and I'll be being.
Bologna? Because you're terrible at numbers and that's not bad. So if you don't cut the edges,
it curls, you said. It curls. It curls. Like the little,
pepperoni's on a pizza.
You know how they kind of cup upwards?
You don't want your baloney doing that.
It's great when it's pepperoni.
Can't go flat on the bread.
So, uh, pro scout meetings, right?
Remember, uh,
amateur scotton, Don, Don,
don't, don't,
last week or two weeks ago.
And said, we want to have the, uh, the scouting meeting.
It's going to be hard to get them on.
Get the G.
So it's, uh,
one of the GM installed before.
Yeah, which is, which is in the next week.
The scouting meetings, they start Tuesday.
Tuesday?
It's what day?
It's, today is Wednesday.
So in theory, in a week, you could have a GM in place.
Now, it won't be one of those things where they want to slide it through, right?
It'll be a big announcement.
So they'll do it Friday morning.
It depends.
They hire.
And as Elliot, if it's a, ooh, what the hell are they doing here?
That's the Friday afternoon.
If you're really proud of it, it's nice and early on, you know, Thursday night.
You're announced Friday morning.
We're going to have a.
Aha.
That's right.
Yeah.
Elliot had it.
And of course, I had it.
it as well.
But you know, because not a lot.
I can't believe Elliot with everything he says.
But it is the second cycle.
Yes.
The wide net has been cast and now it's the tight group of finalists.
We zoomed you.
Now let's get you in.
You think they zoomed to Connie or they just walked him down the hall?
He was overseas.
He was in Switzerland for a while there.
What about Brad Pascal?
Is he in the hall or is he in Switzerland too?
The boss in Switzerland?
The boss in Switzerland.
Paskell should be in Palm Desert or wherever that home.
That's true.
He probably is.
There's a bunch of staff down there or a Pacific Division final.
Dave, no one to say.
I think there's a lot of names when you go 30 plus that are about getting their names back in the news cycle.
And Dave noticed would be more of that to me than a real finalist candidate.
Brett, you love meetings.
Oh, 30.
No effing way.
How many days has it been since Maloney had the press conference?
The tire fire press conference?
What day was that?
Was that 30 days ago?
Like, no.
Like max?
So you're doing Zoom calls every bloody day.
Check the date, Jack.
Oh, punch me in the face.
And you know that 98% of them are wasted.
Yeah, okay.
So who we got at one o'clock?
Oh, uh,
well,
and that's why we,
the old guy we're never going to hire.
Okay, good.
Because we had John who were never going to hire.
Yeah.
Well, and like, so Ray Whitney's an interesting example of that.
Like, I've not heard his name as a.
Well, Ray played for Don.
Don.
And so if you're going that wide to like 30 plus,
okay, absolutely talk to Ray.
But if you only hear Ray and two of their names,
you think he's a finalist,
I'm like,
oh, that's probably a little misleading.
What the hell's Ray's name and it's running in mine?
Like, where's my effort?
Well, did you send in that cover letter we made for you?
You're supposed to.
You're my agent.
You just called him Don Ballone.
It was a chance now.
It was exactly a month ago today.
So one a day, easy.
There you go.
It's like the vitamin.
God.
Oh, thanks.
Yeah, well, I can't do that either.
Not forever.
I get.
No way.
Fight him in a day?
Right?
No chance.
So how do you think that one goes with Ray Whitney?
Oh,
so you still got your place in the Mountain Hills?
Oh, yeah.
So how are the kids?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Well, I looked at the...
Hey, Ray, good talking to you.
Are we going to talk about the GM job?
Yep, talk to you later.
Thanks, Ray.
We interview.
Stay in the shade.
We talk to Ray Whitney.
We talk to 30 people.
Well, and the reason...
I like Ray. I do, too.
And he may be great.
The wizard.
The interesting thing being, he has...
has three years of NHL scouting, two is a pro scout,
which isn't a ton at all,
and then three years with junior AAA hockey in the Phoenix area.
His kid's big, like six.
So he's probably coached his kid along the way.
And then he was an assistant GM for a Spengler Cup team once.
Put him in your backpack.
That's a tiny resume for a GM, right?
I think scored goals as a little guy
when you couldn't score goals as a little guy.
Well, remember in junior, right?
No.
Junior.
Yeah, spokane.
Yeah, with old fat balloon.
Old Patty.
Yeah.
And everybody's all jacked up about Pat Falloon.
Who ended up having the hell of a career?
The answer is not Pat Falloon.
Ray Whitney, first game is a Florida Panther in Buffalo after being picked up off the waiver wires from Edmonton.
Yeah.
That was a swing to miss for the Oilers.
And his dad was like the training room, like the dressing room attendant.
Should have listen to the old man.
He was a stick boy when he was a kid.
loves the team.
Was he a sick by when he was a man?
Fort Sask?
I think so.
Yeah.
Strong ties to Alberta.
He'll be a great GM.
He was a great Western Lager.
Holy shit.
1085 points, one year.
Dude.
Yep.
Anyway.
You hear?
I was just telling you.
That's a lot of points.
We'll move along if that's all right.
From the AHL slash GM conversation of the Calgary Flames over to...
Go.
Ranglers.
What's happening overseas?
We're in...
No, I don't want to talk about this.
gave a shit, they're out.
Well, we're going to make fun of them for that.
But first,
Firebirds getting some reinforcements here.
Now that the Cracken have been eliminated,
Ty Cartier, who was pretty damn impressive for a guy
we hadn't heard a lot about before the playoffs.
He's coming down.
I would expect he plays.
Chris Dreger's coming down,
but Joey DeCord was sensational in that victory.
I think this is great for the Wranglers.
It's going to disrupt the room for Coachella.
And if you want to get sinister here,
Yesper Froden, the third name on that tweet.
don't know who he is.
He's got a clear waivers to go down.
Flames should just claim him.
Fuck that.
Can't pull.
Take that.
That's GM it.
Right there.
Give me the job.
Right there.
Oh, Brad Passon's going to do it.
If he doesn't, he's not worthy of the NHL job.
Well, I don't know.
Maybe they won't claim them.
We'll see what happens.
Overseas, Matthew Coronado continues to play well for Team USA.
Who cares?
Helper today.
USA undefeated in the tournament.
And we got a Coronado board.
Someone else on another show was talking on
enough about Matthew Coronado that they have one bill.
Look at this.
I didn't ask for this.
Three games, goal and an assist, plus one.
All right.
What's that?
Are we allowed to show it?
Are we allowed to show it?
Is this going to get us taken off?
Yeah, by the way, double IHF?
Take the stick out of your hood.
Did it hurt your brand that we talked about the tournament and even showed a highlight?
Did that skewer the interest in your tournament?
Dumbass.
The fuck.
Settle down, Dick Pound.
Seriously, it's not Dick Pound or Rennie Fousel or something like that.
Dick Pound's IOC.
It's all Switzerland idiots.
We'll move to NHL news.
Yeah, we talked about it.
Did you just call the Swiss idiots?
The IOC and FIFA and the double IHF.
Yes.
Betman, listen to this statement.
Terribly disappointed by the public referenda.
Referenda!
Regarding the Coyotes Arena Project in Tempe,
not referendum.
Referenda.
Gymnasium, gymnasia.
Referendum, referenda.
It's Latin, I think.
It's exciting stuff.
We. None.
So that's not great.
Here is their spokesperson, Javier Gutierrez.
What's next for the coyotes will be evaluated by the team and the league in coming weeks.
Visibly shaken.
Ooh, leaving the podium.
We have a relocation to announce.
He also said this.
F you, you, you MFers.
You didn't listen to the mayor.
Just double guns on the way out.
This was the best arena.
deal in the history of Arizona,
which to be fair,
doesn't mean it's a good arena deal.
The pet loss.
Yeah, doesn't mean it's a bit of shit.
In the entire state,
this arena deal
was the best.
Well, yeah,
all the other ones fucking killed you.
They were awful.
What's the competition here?
Moving to the fucking suburbs is the real estate play?
Jesus.
Alex.
Alex, tick that.
Clayton Keller's upset.
Fifth and all time scoring,
sad face.
But good news,
Phoenix is the headquarters of U.
Hall.
Oh, you have access.
Good deals.
Yeah, that's right, because then he'll be, because they'll be leaving.
I wonder if their move is covered.
The players, right?
Well, is Haviar still going to be footing the bill?
Havier's, not his money.
It's Alex Morello's money, and he don't like footing any bills.
So maybe the new owner could help the fellas out.
If that Jerry Moyes didn't get bankrupt, he had the trucking business.
This is the player's fault?
I got to move to Houston.
I got to pay for this.
What if you get traded?
Do you get paid?
How does that work?
I don't know the answer.
If you get traded, whatever.
And if it's as humid as you say, you're going from a very dry climate.
Oh, yeah, dry area.
Great for your skin.
You'll be able to water your grass.
Horrible for your pits.
My pits have taken a beating over the years.
Gold bond, buddy.
Oh, man.
But doesn't it just turns into like, don't?
No, no, not gold bond.
Huh?
Cold bond is good.
Medicated.
Are you just talking about swash solutions here?
Yeah.
It's a gold bond.
It's not flour.
Wasn't it Ross when he was wearing the?
leather pants and friends he has the gold bond.
That's stupid shelf.
Andy Strickland, who we know.
So what does it do?
Does it keep you from sweating?
Does it soak up the sweat?
It just soaks up the moisture.
Like it just, it's power, right?
It's just gets everywhere.
You know that when the things get packaged and put in boxes of those little silica things?
Just sucks in all the moisture.
It's got some mint to it too.
There's a little spice.
My voice could use a little bit.
Tiggly.
Ooh, minty.
Can you guys smell that?
No, is it just me?
Wow, we're on a ride here.
Andy Strickland.
The Cam and Strick podcast, Andy Strickland, who is well-connected around the league.
Options the league are exploring for the coyotes include this coming season.
No shit.
There is a chance they have already played their final game in the desert.
Hitting dingers.
Middle, middle fastball.
Andy, you scoop.
Brett by minutes.
How did you get?
Such insight.
Speaking of middle, middle fastballs,
or maybe a sixth slider in a row,
the Yankees have been,
well, chastised for their behavior in Toronto,
Dean, as they've played now two of a four-game set.
They've won them both.
The first game had the baseball world
wondering what Aaron Judge was looking at in the dugout.
Buster only got to the bottom of that,
and this is about as democratically,
and you can state that someone is, you know,
signaling what pitches is coming,
which is not illegal and is part of the game.
There was an assumption on the Jay's side
that their pitcher-catcher were betraying the identity
of the forthcoming pitches.
That's tipping pitches.
Betraying the identity of the forthcoming pitches.
So Judge was asked about it.
He made up some phony baloney story
about guys chirping in the dugout.
Okay, that was Monday.
Who cares?
Who cares?
It's a one-off.
Why is it phony baloney?
And this is,
It, dingers.
What's that?
Why is what?
So Aaron Judge, it was phony baloney.
His answer was, yeah.
They were tipping pitches.
That's not what he said when he was asked what he was looking at.
And this is,
this is fact from Buster Only?
He's very...
Assumption means what?
There is an assumption.
So the Jays believe they were tipping their pitches.
I'm sure the Jays do.
Which is, yeah.
And so...
Well, you Yankee honk.
What are you sticking up for them?
Well, here's the thing.
It could just be a one-off and they're not cheating.
But then the very next day, Rhett,
here's what happens to their stuff.
starter. Diego German, yeah, had the same opinion as the other umpires that tossed them
through three innings. Shiny, extremely sticky. It's the worst hand we've ever felt during a game.
If you're going to fake or cheat, cheat, well, come on. Like, and like, these idiot pitchers know
they're getting checked now. Every inning they check these guys. How dumb are you? The day after
you're trying to dispel any concerns about how square you play the game, you sap up your
hands, you dummy. He doesn't speak the language.
poor Domingo her mom
German Herman
10 games
he's got some chew at the front
some sticky stuff on the hip there
just from placing his hand on his hip
I like the effort
you're trying
try harder you don't get caught
it's safety
it's for the batter's own good
yeah can't control the ball
can't control where it goes
you want to kill somebody
it's a class organization
no moustaches cheat as much as you want
actually you are allowed moustaches
it's beards right
how many home runs the judge have in the
Yeah.
Three more than World Series.
He's won.
So that's the count.
It's three in the series.
Got it.
How is the series, by the way?
Two other Yankees, as I stated.
Two to go.
Tonight is a doozy with Garrett Cole up against Chris Bassett coming off the first
complete game shutout in like ages.
Good.
He got lit up in his first game, like nine runs and three innings or something.
And since then, opponents are hitting like 138 off him.
It's wild.
I don't know how he does against the Yankees tonight.
And judges on a game.
heater to your point.
Was he the one in the
Doinkel?
The Tiger King movie?
Bassett?
Cheryl.
Carol Baskin?
Oh, that bitch, Carol Baskin?
That was Bassett.
Different.
She was female.
He's a pitcher in the majors.
Former Oakland A.
Matt.
Is he still in jail, old Tiger guy?
Man, he's making all this money, too, with his fame, I'd think.
If you can only get out of the hole,
he might be out.
What did you do?
I will never recover from this financially.
Because he plotted to kill him.
old Bassett there, the Basset Hound.
I thought they hooked up.
What?
No, she killed her husband and he was trying to, I mean, what?
Yeah, you got to pay attention.
Come on, Dean, take notes.
I remember, I just remember she had her husband.
He disappeared.
Did he?
Yes.
He's a pilot.
All of a sudden he's gone.
And then she was talking about, I don't know, if he really wanted to get the tigers
to eat someone, you just put some peanut butter on their feet.
And you're like, oh, my God.
Jesus Christ.
Wow.
That bitch, Carol Baskin?
Let's go to a tilt in Cleveland.
I know to be subscribed.
Can't you just give me the facts?
Yeah, don't suppose.
Let's,
Dean have a little viewing here.
This is in Cleveland.
And I,
before we start it,
Alex,
before we start it,
there are a couple people
you need to pay attention to.
So Cleveland Rocks with the
nacho cheese chips.
He's going to be one of the primaries,
but it's his wife
that really gets the ball rolling.
Watch about five seconds.
Hang on.
Now first,
before you even get into it.
Okay.
First thing that I notice,
calf.
Tattoo.
Dude's got a sizable calf and runners.
And the tat on it.
Caff tat and runners is a look.
With some dad runners.
Cackies.
Right.
So I'm shades on the lid.
It's like, okay.
I'm digging this guy.
I get where this is going.
And yeah,
you can just see the front of her.
Yeah.
You can just see the front of her rotund belly.
Yeah.
eat and there's clearly been a little bit of chirping going on here. So here he's getting back.
And then the other guy you want to watch is Johnny Red shirt on the left side. Yeah,
the row in front. See that he's put out. The two Reds are going to. Yeah. And there's,
there's been some back and forth here. You can tell this isn't the first interaction between Big Red and
and Nacho Man and Nacho Man. And he does not want to. He's just bought these nachos.
He's ready to chow. Ret, you will appreciate this. I just got back from the concession.
I got a brand new tray of nachos. I've dumped the salsa into my cheese sauce. I'm ready to
Hammer some.
Things like 13 bucks.
Let me eat my nachos.
And then this shit happens.
There we go.
Look at this.
Come on, guys.
You're really building up the suspense here.
Really are.
Yeah.
So again, the nachos.
What do you think those run you at a ballpark now?
Depends where you are.
Cleveland might be affordable.
Yankee Stadium, my bet you is 12.
1199.
Yeah.
1112 bucks.
Extra cheese.
What is the tattoo of?
Can you make that out?
Is that a canoe with a
big piece of cheese in it?
What the hell is that a bird?
The Arizona Cardinals.
The football team.
Can we push play?
I think we're waiting for Alex to push play here.
Alex is pissed at you.
We're building it up pretty good here.
Oh, he drops some.
So he sat down, gets up.
Whoa.
Oh.
She comes in for a little...
See, I'm frozen here.
I've got to reconnect.
A little Tet-a-Tette.
And, I mean, dude takes a swing out of it.
Now, you can't do that.
That doesn't seem right at all.
You can't do that.
And if we could, again, I feel like we need to watch it two or three times.
So watch the guy in the red shirt.
Red lady is going to spit.
Red lady is going to give him a bang.
Whoop.
Hoc-pituy.
Did she spit?
She spits on him there.
And he's like, that's the line.
And then she's got a bug in her hair and he goes to like flip it away.
Is that what it is?
Yeah.
I thought he was swatner.
No, it's a moth.
Moth in her hair.
Oh, this poor big red's losing the shirt.
Look at the person down on their ground behind this guy trying to hold on to the
Yeah.
Hold her.
So watch again.
Again, it's the spit, then the moth flip.
And old man potato, old man nacho chips is like, doesn't want to do this, but he has to.
Yeah, we'll watch the, oh, okay, chips are done.
Is that?
Poor old guy takes one here.
Yeah.
He's spout on someone.
And then the last one is, is really.
There's some heft in that fight there.
The fate of the nachos.
Yeah, it's too bad.
It's a full tray.
Oh.
And he hangs on until the last possible moment.
Then he has to defend the.
Don't.
I think the move would be to...
Watch the nachos.
Here we go.
This is good.
Huck-pituy coming up.
So dude sits down.
Then somebody says something.
Oh, is that right?
One chip falls already.
You're pissed off.
She wax them with the spit.
Moth.
Nachos.
I can't see this moth you're talking about.
He's got good eyes.
Yeah.
That's what he says.
That's what I got.
That's all those lasers.
Anyway, good tilt in Cleveland.
Speaking of baseball fights,
there was a pretty famous one,
seven years and two days ago.
Oh, really?
May we?
Now, can I,
as far as the law is concerned,
once you've started down the path,
do you might as well just finish it
or does it get worse the more you do?
I don't know the answer to that.
So what is it again?
What's the fight started?
If you throw and you've already
had the assault charge, right?
Get your money's worth?
Yeah.
Do you go for it or do you,
You probably do, but here's the thing.
If someone spits on you, your eyes roll back in your head, right?
Oh, I know.
You just fuck.
You're gone off.
All bets are off.
Yeah.
Well, and the other thing is,
Lionel Nelson.
Someone spits on you.
I spit on me as a young man.
Oh, how'd that go?
Not good for him.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
He called me a city slicker.
Whoa.
You, you?
Lionel, get ready.
And then then spit or?
Oh, spit before.
Spit, city slicker.
Oh, you.
Outside now.
That reach advantage, retro total essence.
Because I feel like there's not much you can do to flip someone switch, then spit on.
Spits right there.
You almost should be forgiven for whatever happens afterwards if you get spit on.
I agree.
Now, the other thing that's a big taboo, you can't be hitting the lady.
That's true.
But she does spit.
So now everyone around is like there's been two cardinal rules broken here.
Yeah.
And so it's full chaos.
That's Cleveland.
Cleveland.
You can't trust Cleveland.
So back to another famous baseball fight.
Seven years and two days ago.
This was seven months, actually, after, well, you don't flip your bat like that.
Last inning or last that bat for Batista in the entire season against Texas.
And they waited seven months to put a fastball on his ribs.
Thought him.
That's weak, says Pat Tabler.
And they love it in Texas.
Remember, of course, there was the Jose bat flip.
They came back from 2-0 to dominate.
And then, oh, you got a ground ball.
I'm going to slide hard in a second, you turds.
And Rudnett says, not in my house.
Wagga!
Sunglasses!
Now, Batista stays on his feet.
I remember that was a nice punch to take.
He landed it, but to be fair, Jose takes it well.
Yeah.
I know Kevin Pilar's in the mix.
You're going to be worried if you threw that one,
and the guy's still standing there.
Well, and then you're lucky you got the whole bullpen protecting you all of a sudden here.
Ed Carnassion's livid in here, number 10.
He's running around.
trying to tackle him.
Boy, there again, what have we been saying through all these videos?
Get your hands up.
Because Jose comes in leading with the chin.
Eye contact.
It's going on.
Shove.
Clunk.
But look, he's good.
Okay, now his hands are up.
His hands are up right away.
Once he's hit, he's like, okay, I'm ready.
I'm in the fight here.
And then the Rangers are in there.
That's an incredible punch.
And Texas Rangers fans love this.
But really, I mean, it was two years in a row.
They got absolutely crushed by the Jays in the playoffs.
You get out of that whole scenario.
That's all they got.
That's all they had.
And I get it.
And you know what?
You didn't even get the spikes in him.
You chained.
Before you know what?
Odor?
That's a guy who's,
that's not his first.
No, he's punched people before.
When you,
when you're that quick in that environment,
like that's not a bar.
Another underrated thing.
Watch his necklace do the loop to loop around his neck as he throws the punch.
Velocene.
Yeah, it's like a hula hooping thing.
When we get back to the beginning again on the next pass,
because he,
there's some serious momentum on this.
What do you call that torque?
It's a lot of torque.
There's a lot of torque there.
And it's going the opposite way.
It's kind of like a party trick you'd see at some sort of...
Oh, Gibby.
How about Gibby?
Yeah.
They beat us, but we punched them.
Oh, a little more.
Okay.
A lot of luck.
And here we go again.
Call the game.
Oh, that's a good rivalry.
Oh, Prince Fielder.
That's a big quad.
Can't miss that one.
How do you miss?
Almost impossible.
I like Prince Fielder, though.
Yeah, he had the health.
issues. That's too bad. He was a great player.
He doesn't fit in with the rest of those Texas guys. Those are turrets.
I liked Prince. Well, and you know what? I like Beltray.
Yeah. Okay. No problem, Beltray.
Don't touch his head. Was he the guy that orchestrated all the cheating or was that
Beltron? That's Carlos Beltron. Good. You don't want to confuse those two.
One of them was a history.
Adrian Beltrade. Thank you. Let's go to some NBA stuff. First, last night, we found
out the San Antonio Spurs experts at tanking and winning championships did it again.
Was it Victor I wantonabay?
something along those lines.
Seven foot five Frenchmen,
eight foot wingspan.
They win the lottery.
Guys good.
So the Spurs get another generational superstar.
What does it look like?
Well, this is playing against men in France,
and it's like he's moving like a point guard here.
He's 7.5.
Like, this guy could ease cereal off Shaq's head.
This is crazy how big this kid is.
Mom 6-3, former pro basketball player.
Dad's 6-6, 7-footers on his dad's side.
He's got Warner.
This is the next Super Bowl.
Warner like windspan, eight feet.
A warner hand.
What were you?
7-11, 8-2, what was your wingspan?
I'm shooting threes.
This is not an under-the-hoop guy.
Apparently great defender as well.
Well, how hard is it?
I mean, you should be great if you're an athletic in that size.
Yes, I mean, I don't want to take anything away from him.
There's a few things on the nose and the old Pinder report today, but that's all right.
And he can dunk.
You know, I don't know that I've seen dunk a lot, but still is very good at basketball.
I don't know when this was filmed, but if you think, Steph Curry, why?
Boy, he sure can do it.
Shutes it pretty well.
How about when it's not in a game and there's no defender with a mitt in his face?
Because Steph ain't seven foot five.
This is warm-ups one game.
So, okay, he goes, a little tear drop, no big deal.
Fowel line, you expect them to make that.
Okay, top of the key, makes that, just inside three-point line, makes that.
Now we're in three-point land, makes that, back it up.
Okay, you're a couple feet past now.
Bang, another.
Doesn't he do this every game?
But he doesn't miss.
This is insane.
Now he's basically the logo at mid-court.
He's still draining them.
He's not the logo.
That's hard to defend.
I mean, he doesn't miss if there's not a defense.
This is wild.
So he just gets to get to half court and then.
And then he just comes back in and does them all over again.
He's showing off.
It's a robot.
It was like you before you hurt your foot.
High kicking?
And my shoulder.
Kids playing hoops.
Oh.
I've had many, you know what?
Basketball's not been good to me.
It's a tough sport.
I got kicked out of games.
I rolled my ankle on the guy's foot.
I hurt myself and streetball.
I'm done with basketball.
You're taking it too serious, maybe.
Yeah, I got tossed out of a game one time.
It's not great.
Really?
There's a story.
We don't need to tell it.
That's usually how it goes.
It's a tough story about him.
With you, we do pride out with me and serrated.
Dean, I think we'll just take the high road on this one.
A bit of a snap. Snapshow.
Yeah.
Big game. Big snap.
Regionales, yeah.
Oh.
Yeah. And we were getting.
Who were you playing?
Dothan.
Pricks.
D.R.
Jason. CSS or some bullshit.
Jerks.
And they were just fucking pumping us.
Like.
Running it up.
Running it up.
Fuck.
I don't want to tell this story.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
So it's the final thing, right?
They got one guy, and he's Johnny Dunks a lot.
He's great.
And he's going to go and hammer one down at the buzzer.
And I see this.
So he goes up and he's hanging from the friggin' rim.
And everybody's, woo!
And as he comes down, I kind of get underneath them.
Oh, yeah.
Have a ride.
And he does the ass over tea kettle backwards, balk on the back of his head.
They weren't happy in Dauphin.
Oh, it's on the road, too.
Yeah.
Bold of you.
You got out of there, save?
It was dodgy.
Yeah, they were some sour.
Bit of a skirmish after that, I'd suggest.
Yeah, they were not.
Rush tried to toss you immediately.
Benches clear.
You got a team bus?
Or did you have the IROC?
No, it was, it was not the IROC.
It was the old yellow, the yellow machine outside, yeah.
We didn't win regionals.
Yeah.
Oh, you're trying.
Yeah.
You'd be a good Yankee.
It's not shocking to hear, seeing as you were on the team.
Yeah.
Final bit of news.
for the Pender Report.
We want to make two things clear.
Number one, the Pinder Report does not condone
any driving while under the influence of vehicles,
but also the Pinder Report does not condone
letting your dog drive the car.
This is a story from Colorado.
I don't know what happened.
The police have some serious work to get down to, Rhett.
Somebody did one of those two things.
We just don't know which.
If it's one of those self-driving electric vehicles,
it's fun.
A driver in Colorado tried to switch
seats with this dog to avoid a DUI arrest, police say.
I mean, maybe, or maybe the dog was driving the whole time.
We don't condone that either.
Don't do either of these things.
If it's a self-driving.
Hey, you got Buster riding shotgun up front there.
Keeping an eye on things?
I'm a little tired.
Or you're diving into the backseat and then firing him up front to really make the point
that you weren't driving.
Auto drive and then put the dog in there.
He loves driving officer.
I don't know what to tell you.
It's a service dog.
he's got his learners.
I'm in the back.
He's got his learners.
I don't see a problem, Ossifer.
That's your PIN report.
That feels like a driver in Florida.
Yeah, Florida man.
This is a Florida man story.

VillageHonda.com.
Yeah, you want to hear, I read something this morning.
Ryan Suter, Dallas Star.
For a long time.
1,470 games.
That is a ton.
Round three for the first time.
Is that right?
right has never been out of round two. He wasn't in Nashville when they went to the final and
Minnesota I would have thought got to one final everybody might not have been there yet. It was way
back probably in the joclomerid days that they got to their west final. That's a lot, eh?
Holy. Good for him.
He was one of those putsas in Minnesota though. I was like Wyatt Johnston and Ryan Suter are off
to the second row. Well yeah that's opposite ends of the spectrum there. Yeah no I think what the issue
was in Minnesota is that when he and Parisi signed those billion year deals, they kicked their feet up.
It was retirement land. And when Bulgarian came in, it was, this is going to hurt. We're going to have
massive cap hits. There's a lot of signing bonus. The buyout's going to hurt. But we have to reset the
culture. And they're not bad players, but these can't be the guys running the room. Their feet are up.
And both have gone on and played well in other markets since. But that was the decision making in
Minnesota at the time.
Because it wasn't like they were bad.
Like you bought them out for other reasons.
I remember Suter was pretty good for a while.
Really good.
Yeah.
Suter is set to eclipse.
So the last longest stretch.
Roman Hammerlick.
The Hammer.
Played 1,317 games.
God, he played a lot.
Before 2010, conference final.
With who?
2010.
Oh, that's just what it says here.
Is that a
The Hammer in 2010.
Isn't it sad?
Who won the Stanley Cup in 2010?
Chicago.
Arizona.
No.
Can't believe they'll move that team.
That's such a rich.
Are they doing that?
We should talk about that.
St. Eugene.
Beautiful spot.
Cranbrook, British Columbia.
You imagine right now.
I wish.
So great.
Championship golf course, casino, spa, restaurants.
It's all there.
You go, you stay.
You enjoy yourself.
Have the time of your life.
And book now.
St. Eugene.
Dot, uh,
St.ugine.ca is the website on Twitter,
on Instagram at
St. Eugene.
Saint Eugene Resort.
But, um,
busy.
So go online and,
and get booking on this.
Get your shirt together.
Yeah.
It's not like we're the only ones that know about this place because it's got a lot
to offer.
Beautiful spot.
Mountains all around you.
And,
And it's a little paradise, a little tranquility
that we could probably all use in our life.
Excited.
We're going to get out there.
We're going to have some fun.
Can't wait?
Just turn the volume down.
Just everything just a little bit.
What we'll do is we'll get me in one group and Dean and the other group.
At least the volume.
Yeah, so that it's turned down for him.
Because I'll up the volume up.
That's right.
Yeah, we'll do the rowdy group and the lame group.
You will be separated.
Two more years on Souter's deal.
He's already at, what do we say, 1480?
1470.
So that's another theoretical 150 games that he could pile on.
That's a, ooh.
Like you had a wail of a career.
That's double.
That's crazy how much hockey's played.
Like, boom.
It doesn't have any of the stories.
I don't know.
I can't speak to that.
I know you do have some world-class stories.
Who, Hammerlick or a suitor?
Hammerlick would have some stories.
Hammerlick has all the deodorant.
Early on.
First overall?
Very high pick.
I don't know if he was first, but he was way up there.
Hammerlick.
First overall, 1992.
Is it the first pick in Tampa history?
I don't know.
Was Tampa Bay 92?
I think it was.
2010, Montreal.
Round three with Montreal.
What a loss to the Rangers or somebody in a conference final.
Does that sound right?
Lundquist, maybe.
Played 19 games.
Great.
Great.
Yeah.
Sweet.
So no hockey tonight.
We'll take a look.
tomorrow.
Yeah, round three starts tomorrow
with the east
and then Friday with the West
and we're one game of night now.
I'm not missing a bit.
A lot of these kind of shows
all of a sudden.
Oh, fuck.
Bologna shows.
I don't know.
We should get the Bologna.
If we had the Bologna,
I'd be fine with.
We get Don Bologian studio.
We could kill a couple hours.
Let's go.
They said not until after the search.
I get that.
But still.
Cains, Panthers.
Gary's Sunbelt teams.
Oh, Gary.
How's going for you, Gary?
Fucking Betman.
I don't think it's a bad thing.
Peter DeBoer, Dallas coach against Vegas, his former team,
Paul Maurice, Florida coach, Carolina former team.
A little fresher for one than the other.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I think Daddanov is well against his old team.
Remember Vegas tried to screw him with his no trade?
He did.
And now he's in Dallas playing, so it's Debor and Daddy against the Knights.
Again, well, you know, and there will be two things.
Who do we think will win and who do we want to?
win. Who would you guess
the betting favorite would be in the Carolina
Hurricanes, Florida Panthers?
Carolina. Canes, slight favorites, I'd guess
like minus 130 maybe. Well, we have
it here for you. We could take a look. We have a little graphic
as we went, you know what I did? I went to the betway up.
Oh, good. Went to the betway up this morning to take a look. And
there you have it. Carolina,
minus 1.30, Florida, a plus 110.
Red!
Hello! You-hoo! Retro!
And then you can pick
the number of games, if you would like.
That would be for, yeah, just, okay,
doesn't matter who wins.
Just doesn't matter who wins.
Interesting.
Yeah, and look, like, they're missing guys,
but they haven't really done anything
but make short work of their opponents.
They destroyed the Islanders.
They made quick work of a devil's team
that had won four in a row.
Like, Florida was a bounce away
from being out and round one in a non-story.
Does this feel like a long break for Florida?
It's only a day or two more than Carolina, right?
I just mean for that rhythm that they've been in.
Probably less.
They should have been playing tonight.
The other side, obviously, in the West.
Stars, nights.
It's close.
Are we at Pickham territory here?
Vegas and Dallas.
How do we feel?
Does that roll off the tongue when you think,
does that feel like a Western conference final?
It's happened before.
Oh, look at that.
Vegas considerable favorites.
So I don't know
I can't help but wonder if maybe
They both had some high scoring wild
Zany series
Like you look at just the last round
Both of them were win big lose big
Win big win big lose big
Like back and forth it went
I don't think this is boring hockey here
I hope you're right
Yeah yeah yeah
You could also have some closer games too
We didn't have a close game in that Dallas series
Until game seven
Well in game one it was over time
Yeah
Plus two out
I'd watch game seven there
Yeah I'll take that
So there you go
that's round three.
Picks tomorrow.
Picks tomorrow.
Go Yotes.
How did we do in a round two?
I was the shits.
You were terrible.
You had one and retina each had two,
which is not good
because a coin could get two out of four,
I think, pretty easily.
None of us are...
Got me.
None of us are on a heater,
is what I'm saying.
It's Wednesday.
Madrose Pub?
What are we told you about?
What's good?
What's nice?
Every day, the sauce and the delus.
Have you had the soup yet?
I haven't.
That's our next stop.
I know.
Pizza. Matt Rose Pub, the pizza. Wednesday, 25% off.
I don't say, I don't know what Matt's doing up there.
Pizza?
I hope he's doing okay.
On sale?
25% off.
And I can't tell you exactly what it is because, you know, liquor laws and stuff.
But you know the captain there.
I, I, I captain.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow, all aboard.
That's a drink special today.
And I know you both, because this came up yesterday.
We were talking about it.
if you grab yourself a banded peak pint,
also on special today.
I love that.
25% of pizza.
I'm telling you.
Yeah.
Get two.
Get two.
So you'd have 200% of the pizza and 50% on it.
Yeah, don't eat the whole thing.
Go ahead and eat the whole thing.
Or eat the whole thing.
Just don't beat the piss out of yourself.
I was going to say, if you eat a whole pizza once,
you don't need to drag your entire mindset into the gutter for a week over it.
You were hungry and you move along.
Mad Rose Pub and Royal Oak, 20 beers on tap kid, friendly Saturday, Sunday, Monday.
Great food, great people.
And you're going to say that, but truly, these have, we've met some really awesome people since we started this thing.
And Matt is at the top of that list.
And having gone there a number of times, the people there are so, so generous and so nice to us every time we go there.
So Mad Rose Pub, 15 Royal Vista Place online, madrose.com.
Keep sending us pictures of your food orders up there as well.
hit us on socials. I love that. It makes my mouth sweat and it reminds me I need to get
it back up there sooner than later. And we laughed the one day and it is. Every picture you see
looks just like. Yes. That pizza down there. We had a photo. It's the exact same. That's what's on
your table. Just slightly singed cheese. Oh, so good. Bubble. Betway Betts of the day and we'll call
it a show for you today. Do we have any results from Kazakhstan, Canada yet? That was our bets of the day
yesterday. Betway bets. Get the Betway app on your phone. Play along. Bet the responsible way.
if you're Ontario, only 19 years of age,
responsible.
I'm going with some American
Hockey League tonight.
The Wranglers at the Firebirds.
I'm going regulation win
for the Ranglers.
They're favorite. They're the favorite,
but you get a little extra juice if you go
regulations plus $1.25.
Let's go Ranglers.
I want the dancing horse on the show tomorrow.
Yeah, I want the dancing horse on the show too.
Yes, please.
I like that.
going to, well, right back to the AL East 10th series.
Yeah, they're in it.
It's, uh, the, the benches are barking each other.
You're a third base coach standing too close.
Your third base coach can't be standing if you're up for making a third base coach.
Hey, shut up, fat boy.
Yeah, there you go.
Yelling at somebody in the other dugout.
Really?
It's not very sportsman like.
Booney and he are, Booney's not fat, though.
No, no, I just, the two of them have been very chirpy here.
After that game one, very chirpy intense yesterday.
So my bets, how about this?
Bassett coming off, his best start is the Blue Jay about a mile.
He goes, nine innings shutout.
That doesn't happen since like 2015 for the Blue Jays.
That's ages.
If he and Garrett Cole, strikeout machine both get six Ks, plus 175.
So pitchers, dual is kind of what I'm seeing here.
And I'm going to take the under on seven-half hits.
We don't know if Vladdy's in because he had that MRI yesterday
after the awkward landing on the play at first.
Cole's good.
I smell a low-scoring one.
I'm going to go plus money for the Jay's under seven and a half hits.
You've cheered for both teams so far this season.
Who do you like?
I was going to say.
Jay's got to get it on the wind.
Get one in the wind column here.
Just in case he's out there next weekend.
Yeah, that's right.
So come on.
All right.
They got, yeah, game four will be tomorrow.
And then the Orioles in town for three when you're there.
Be great.
So great.
Get hot, baby.
Are you going to Toronto?
Trash birds.
You're going to stay there for a while?
You just kind of, yeah.
Speaking of that, we are, we're done for the day.
Are we done?
I think so.
That's the Wednesday show.
Did we talk about Phoenix?
Here they're in trouble.
Coyotes suck.
Wow.
It's hard out.
All right.
So what are we doing tomorrow?
Tomorrow.
Rumors.
Boomers, rumors.
Truly, here's the thing.
We're not expecting to be a regular start time tomorrow.
We are not going to be starting at the regular start time.
We are not going to, yeah.
For everybody who gets a regular start time.
gets in on the YouTube,
and we appreciate you and you sit there
and you wait for the show,
but tomorrow's going to be a longer wait.
We're going to be an afternoon start.
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow.
And we'll,
you know what we'll do?
We'll get on the socials
and we'll advise.
But,
and for good reason.
Don't think we're getting lazy or anything.
Similar good reason to yesterday's
lead start time.
We'll have a great show for you tomorrow.
Live on location.
Live, I guess.
Again, depending.
I don't know how this.
On location.
For sure on location.
That'll do it, buddies.
We'll see you tomorrow.
La-la-l-l-Lut.
Oilers suck.
Sorry,
