Barn Burner: Boomer & Pinder with Rhett Warrener - Cale Makar Isn't Going Anywhere 😞 | BB Clips

Episode Date: June 12, 2026

Boomer, Pinder and Rhett react to Joe Sakic's emphatic comments about Cale Makar's future in Colorado after the Avalanche legend made it crystal clear that the franchise has no intention of letting their superstar defenseman go anywhere. Sakic stated that he fully expects Makar to finish his career with the Avalanche and revealed that discussions with his agent have already taken place regarding a long-term extension. The guys discuss what Makar means to the organization, why locking him up is the easiest decision Colorado will ever make, and whether there is any realistic scenario where one of the NHL's best players would ever consider leaving.Video Link: https://youtu.be/7DMdQ8BhcJc#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #coloradoavalanche CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8📲 Follow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fnbarnburner/X (Twitter): https://x.com/barnburnerfn?lang=en🎧 Listen on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/barn-burner-boomer-pinder-with-rhett-warrener/id1648562889Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Mc6Qd5U22R2zbMlQ7RxIiProducer: Jack Haverstock Hosted on Acast.

They had their exit interviews and all that thing. Met with the media, of course. He's going to be the GM, I guess. Taking over now. McFarland's in Nashville. Media asking their questions. And they asked, obviously, no, Kail McCar, Calgary, you've been calling, you know, come on home.

He's got one more year on his deal. As of July 1st, Colorado can start negotiating on a new contract. But of course, we've been, come on now. Kian, come on. Kail knows better. This is what Joe was talking. I mean, listen, Kail's going to finish his career here. I mean, I mean, we're already talked to his agent,

so we're confident that something's going to get worked at some point. I mean, he's got another year, but this summer we expect to have him signed. Is that Joe, Sackick always sounded? That's AI. It's got to be a fake. God, damn it. that's that that chrisley farlin he's like well you know we we got to keep this our number

we can't pass this number with you get the hell out of here AI that was joe joe that's that what it was a i joe i didn't know joe sound g i joe that was mosec different guy altogether it's his brother would you keep him i would try why did they'd want to i i'm sure joe i'd dip a toe in and see if he was interested in thing, yeah. It's a bold cut, bold strategy cotton. We'll see if it pays off. Wait a minute. It's your contract up right away? Cool. Like in a year?

We better get going here. I mean, if you want to think about hanging around or what do you think? What do you think? Somebody asked Mike Greer about the celebrania. You could start talk. I don't know if we'll even talk. I'm not sure. Here's one for you. Now,

in the art of negotiation, the leverage just swung over to the agent now, is essentially saying we're getting it done. There's no art to this. This is a superstar, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. This is Dean negotiating his contract. Here, we'll give you this.

Okay, thank you. But if you wanted to say, I'm the top D out there, I'm going to reset the market. What's the AAV on a full term deal? Eight years. Or I guess it'll be eight probably. I'm the wrong guy to talk to. 20?

Every time these come out, I'm like, what? Here's the thing. I think it's worth more than Caprizov if he wants to be. Because he's at 17. I was going to say 17. But he says all, I don't know what goes through guys' minds that are that high end. Because we never had, there were salary caps at the end of my career, but it wasn't. Wasn't like this.

Yeah. Like, are you going, well, I could take it all. You could praise off. Or I could leave a little on the table and I'll still be fine. Connor. Right? That's a lot of the table. Yeah.

Like, there's a huge variance. And I'm not saying that he's going to be a guy that. goes max value. But if he wanted to, I think they'd say yes, up to 20. Because let's remember next year, Caps 104, the year after is 115. What else do they have? He's going into a cap universe at $150 million. Caprizov came at the $94 million cap universe. You're nerd talking now. Just what's he worth? Give another 20% is over the top paid guy in the league and he doesn't even move the bar up,

is what I'm saying. I think he's worth 20. It's also one of those things where. And that's fine. That's probably managed. You're going to have a hot debate with you. No, no. It's the best defense. It's just we always get sticker shock. And I'm always like, what would shock me? Would it be something that starts with a two?

Well, if you tell me first what the max is, oh, that's going to be 22, then anything. Well, yeah, he's that. We've never seen a max player. No, boy. That would be shocked. I'm all wound up. I know. Calculator.

It's just takes tens of it. But it's also one of those things, too. Like you say, from your day, it's all this. Where, where can I. sign it for how much? Well, you can probably sign wherever you want for all the money in the world. Okay. Well, how old am I now? I'm 28 and how much money do I have? You have all the money in the world. You have 50 million. You've made 54 million. How do you, how do you, every time you go to the ATM, there's millions of dollars in your checking. It's just I, I get it. It has to be more than dull when it's that much money. When it's more than you can, it's all of it. Like you say, then it's, well, I want to win. so what's the smart thing to do if i i don't want to take

too less so that i feel like 97 up the road and they're like buying bags of magic beans is a kind of guy is he a short like i'm thinking so say and when when what if you just i want a hundred million and i'll just do five of your deal or go get i think you'd sign it yeah 23 million a hair under 23 million and they're under 23 is the max and then what if they said, well, instead of 100, we'll give you 90. What does that even mean? That's like me and Jack looking at a globe. I'm not going to feel that difference

in my life. A hundred percent, I agree. You know what your agent's going to tell you? These billionaire owners, they're going to make it if you're not. You know what? You know what? It stood out to charity. You know what? You know what stood out to me? It's a personal thing. I can't stand my brother.

But that 10 million is what you think, well, if I don't want it, there's other people in my family that might. Sure. Well, you're, and even, even hating your brother? Even a hated brother you'd share that with. Wow.

Yeah. I'm not saying I would. Oh, okay. You would have the option, I guess. He'll get so deep, I think. He'd be pissed if you know. What do you think about Richie Reggear? What do you hear is about Robin turning down?

Dickie's killing it in Saskatoon right now. Really? Oh, yeah. He's one of the best skills coaches out there. Actually, if the flames weren't so, I'm shouldn't see. They got smart. They'd hire Dickie. Bring him in. He's good.

This guy's amazing. But yeah. Because everything changed. It is the simplest contract in the world. I've told the story about mine. I went into Daryl's office. There was two. There was a three year and a four year.

He said, you pick. So I've called the agent and said, here's your 3%. I'll take that. Prick. The other thing that's a little unique about the situation in Colorado is that you've got a McKinnon deal that's coming on. the pike two I don't

I can't it's too it's Friday I don't want to go we don't need to go deep I'm curious if you just say like who's more important to that team if you had it let's let him finish yeah I'm thinking about kale McCar as a what's Nathan McKinnon like to play with totally that's

I don't give a shit what Nate wants so I'm going to Joe Sackick's probably thinking the same thing right like Joe Thackett Sackick's thinking, what's your number? Let's go. This is boy. That's what he's thinking.

K.L. Are we keeping this coach? And what's the next coach? Because if I'm signing seven years, that means A, what are we doing? Am I going to win it? I don't even know if you care about the coach because what coach in the world is not going to put him on the ice. Yeah. Oh, so you're not going to play me?

Well, take my hundred shmill and go somewhere else, I guess. And you know where it is different in the corners? He has a ring. And it's not necessarily he doesn't want another, but it doesn't feel like his hair is on fire that he's screwed everything up. That's my life's going to be a failure, but I'll get a cup. That's the Vannis. Can I say something else? He's not in Edmonton.

That's true. You know my love of Edmonton? I do. Big on my list of places to be. I love festival. Not everyone can live there. And the river, but not everyone wants, right? He's not in Edmonton.

You don't have to overpay him to stay in Denver. Mushrooms, weed, whatever you need. Oh, baby. Whatever you need.
