Not today.
Jack,
you've really rallied to the troops.
Have I?
What a job.
This is why before game one,
we're like,
what's your plan here?
Because he finally committed to actually cheering on his team in game four.
And they've won two in a row.
They're back in the series.
Completely abandoned your health and longevity for the short term.
That's what it takes.
What did you tell me yesterday?
Your buddies,
there will read a die for that.
Yes.
Got to give her.
It was a line.
It was another night.
Must win scenario at the PPP.
Paint.
G, paint, arena.
Power plate, gold.
Paints, Paints, arena.
Let's take a look.
The question is, Jack was dialed in,
but were the penguins dialed in?
Damn, man.
It starts with number 87.
Oh!
It was wearing the mic.
And you could tell early that he was ready to go.
Points.
Tonight for the captain and look at that look.
Look at this band.
Look at this.
That is a look.
should terrify everybody on the eastern side of this state.
No, Kindle, he's a young fella, but he's smart.
His Memphis, the assembly pass, stroke!
Soderblum on the first shatty knife.
Fadar to the far corner.
Flyers on their heels.
Crosby got it off.
And that one hit the goal post.
The Penns think it went in.
The crowd is celebrating.
The referee waved it off and no goal.
But the officials are conferring now as the crowd goes crazy,
and Pittsburgh celebrates what they believe is a goal by Connor Diller.
Game four, he's now tied to block and with the team leading goals.
Here's the response.
Alex Bump has his first career playoff goal.
There's an extra layer of traffic here.
He's in that high spot for the ice.
Oh, man, that hurts.
That'll just, your legs completely dead.
I can't believe he got up, actually.
I've been hit there before.
Back over to Sanai.
Moving in.
Luckling, shoot scores.
Let it go as the Flyers with all kinds of pressure.
They've tied this game with under five minutes left in the second.
Corosby back to the line for the Tang.
And another strange Cam is crazy.
Brings bouncing a go-ahead goal.
Here to center.
Forster gloves you down.
Crosby gets you back.
What answer to them?
No, off the purse again.
You've got to be kidding me.
Loose in the quarter.
Gerard Pigs it.
You better make pads.
It's for it.
We're going to win for game six on Wednesday night.
Game five.
They won two in a row, and they'll force of game six.
That's the Youngstam-Mort in the 39-year-old,
Latang tied up.
That's not.
tone.
Must grab the hair.
Get a little hair.
So it took a while.
But we've finally got some bad blood and we've got a series.
You know what our greatest regret should be right now?
Not doing the jackometer for this series.
Because he was 10 to start, Pittsburgh and a sweep.
Oh, he had been, yeah.
After two games, is like, they're cooked.
And then three, he's like, I'm not watching anymore.
I'm off.
And then he was below ground level.
Yeah, he was at the core of the earth.
And then he was at the NFL draft.
Yeah.
And he rallies through games.
gone completely that's right.
That was our wide receiver. Fat Mike wanted
him. Yeah, but then you turned it around.
He decided, you know what, tonight's a Saturday.
It took some motivation from your friends.
My buddies had to bail me out
like they always do.
Love those idiots.
That was a good little connect me there
in the back of Sid. I don't know if you could find
that there, but it was
kind of subtle.
But not really.
Just enough to not get. Just enough to kind of
That's the dark arts, isn't it?
Connectney is good at that stuff.
I like Connectney.
You've liked them right since the draft year,
and I think the Flames did two.
Flames did too.
Yeah, Flames did too that year.
I like the, uh, I like it.
We're fine.
We were right, as we most often are.
No, we wanted this series.
We wanted it bad.
We did.
And then through two, three games,
we're like, what the hell?
This is, I can't believe this is,
we asked for this.
Waste of eight days.
Yeah.
This is a waste of a plea to the hockey gods.
Could have saved it for the draft lottery.
Yeah.
But we asked.
We said, no, give us some penguins.
come on, give it to us.
And finally it's starting to come together.
Malkin back hand flips a puck into the flyers,
and she zips on right past talk its head.
He's like,
that thing almost said me in the head.
What do you mean?
You didn't see it.
That's a penalty.
I think the flyers are rattled now.
I think so too.
They did look,
and what we said after three games is like,
well,
the penguins are quite a bit older and this youth and enthusiasm of the
flyers.
And now we're saying like all of the nerves,
the vets have been through this before the kids have it.
Steely nerves.
It cuts both ways,
it's a pair.
Steely, Steely, veterans, stalwart.
Jack, where is the jackometer today?
It's out of ten.
It has.
Once again, the scale goes 0-110.
That's all we have.
There's no numbers in the middle.
We've completely figured it out.
It's just Dan the man.
Completely, completely.
We've got the voodoo.
We've got Stuart Skinner, the hell out of the net.
Crosby's playing his game.
Everything's coming together.
If you are that sure, I'm going to,
tell you what the odds are on the old bet
365 for win the series.
Jack's positive. He knows what he's talking.
Penguins are the sixth team. Now it's
since 2016, so whatever.
10 years. You know, they're the sixth team to come
back and force at least the game six after being
down 0. Yeah, we saw Ottawa do it against Toronto
last year. Oilers
come back 3-0 in that Stanley
Cup two years ago. It made forces 7 and all that's
different. Plus 240 the penguins to win
the series. Okay.
I'm not going to bet, but.
You can't curse it. No, you can't do it. Yeah. You got to keep doing
anything different. He hasn't changed his clothes.
Well, I was going to say, stinky ginch on.
I was walking in. I saw this,
this person walking in a grubby
looking Jerome Gindler
Penguins jersey. It's like, oh, this
small window. It's got to be Jack.
It did get washed yesterday before the game.
Okay. It was,
so that has some victory in it.
It does, yeah. Good, good.
Yeah, Saturday was a full send for him. It needed to wash.
I bet it would be. Yeah, let's take
a look. I know I called for it, so he always will look
at it. Connect me.
So the game's over.
No, big.
Actually, it happened before that.
Yeah, it's coming up right here.
Oh.
And, uh,
Boob.
Like, hey, you're a first ballot Hall of Famer and probably a
Mount Rushmore player.
Why don't you have a seat?
Took a while for him to get up, too.
I think he just kind of laid there hoping not to get stepped on.
Just minding my own business.
Yeah.
Hey, guys, big win.
And speaking of Steely, how about the Sid's stare?
Like you, they've got to be feeling real good right now.
Oh, I love this.
Oh.
I love that Red is the least fan that I know.
And Jack is the biggest fan that I know.
It is true.
We've got both ends of the spectrum.
Yeah, it's great.
How do you not love that retro?
Come on.
He's just looking at the ring.
He's just thinking, my back is so fucking sore.
He's already like timing in his head, the linesman's hand for puck drops.
Like, dude, it's in king.
One second.
He drops at 2.2 seconds.
All right.
I got to be ready to face it.
What if you looked at the guy beside him?
What would his look be like?
You're doped out.
I'd say 70% of that.
No, I'm with you, Jack.
He's ready to go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What about the hair pull at the end?
Is there any a bit of a fine there for Ryan Ross?
The rusty razor.
It's not something you're supposed to do, Dean.
No.
They frown on it?
It's like biting fingers, pulling hair.
Yeah.
That's the code.
The old eye gouge.
Now, you talked about how, I know there was one screenshot there, Jack, on, because you talked about old.
You know, maybe the young guys are a little frazzled and are the old, are the old boys starting to kind of takes a while.
It's just in life for us old guys.
Get a warm up.
Wake up in the morning.
Oh, boy.
How many hours is Mika stretching before games the end of his career?
Hours.
Watching movies.
Four, game five.
Let's just take a little while.
Letang just turned 39.
Did you know what?
Yeah.
20 years they've been together.
Wow.
It's amazing.
This was the one stat.
First team ever with three players aged 38 or older to score in the same series.
There you go.
There you go.
Sustainable.
And how much younger is Carlson?
Because he's not exactly.
Yeah.
It's wild.
He's mid 30s too.
All this time.
Your teams nowadays.
Yeah, we've been talking about all this youth movement getting younger.
I guess maybe we're.
maybe we didn't know what the hell we were talking about.
They're going to get shit pumped in Philly.
Oh, no.
Reds!
I called Philly in six.
What are I going to do?
Change now?
I don't know.
All the pressure's on Philly now.
Pressure.
No pressure?
No pressure.
I mean, I would understand you feeling no pressure, but I look at some of those kids that,
and for Philly, they might feel some pressure.
No.
You're a GEDER arrogant.
They don't think about shit.
So they're not thinking about blowing 3-0?
No.
Okay. Now, question for it, because I don't know the answer.
I know you've been behind in series and rallied. Have you been up big and watched it trickle away from you?
I don't think so, no.
That's a different feeling. I just like I had it and I'm losing my...
We were up. We went into San Jose, the win at the final. We won games one and two,
and we came back here and lost three and four, and that was a bit of a worker.
Yeah.
This is...
We were going to... And I actually think that F'd us for the...
It totally did.
It was more games you need to play.
You split at home, you can be done that series in five.
Or just win them both.
Or just win now.
Yeah.
What happened three and four?
I'm trying to remember that series.
Chris Simon decided to be a nut job.
He's living in the penalty box.
Or Mika was four, five, the whole night.
You wouldn't say that if he was in the room?
Nope. I wouldn't.
Peace of Chris.
What a guy.
Yeah.
God love you.
I think it's somewhere in between.
mean, I think that there has to be some feeling of the hunter becoming the hunted.
And obviously, what happens early in game six?
I'm going to say this. Sorry, my.
You're good.
Dan, the man, two, or what, I don't know who, the guy on the ice, Dan the man on the ice.
Shit goal game four.
Yeah.
Shit goal game five. One goal differences.
Bob's your uncle.
Now you laughed when that highlight came up of him missing the,
the line drive.
And then it bounces
out the end of when I let
Lemieux score.
We don't need to go there.
Brought that else. You left this.
You left a room down.
Yeah.
Good.
And you know what?
Like this is what we do.
We come in every day we talk about games.
It's always narrative street.
So it's the young, plucky flyers through three.
And then it's the steely vets of Pittsburgh after four and five.
How many times?
What if it's just a good series and we alternate wins and losses?
Yeah.
Like we're still going to game six.
Well, personally, they would have alternated wins and losses.
Then we would have more attention.
Yeah, because it looked very one-sided for three games.
Right.
And it kind of turned around.
So I'm glad we got a six because this felt like a sweep coming.
How often did Pittsburgh win four in a row during the season?
Probably how many teams did?
It's a good question.
I think almost the whole league.
It's extreme, I know, but it's extremely hard to rattle off four in row.
Sure.
At any point.
And never mind against good opponents.
which is this time of year.
Yeah.
Right.
You go Chicago,
whoever out, like,
you know what Sid's saying, though.
It's not four in a row.
Sid don't talk.
He just gives you the,
it's one win at a time.
Well, there was one other clip.
And I didn't grab,
I guess I could have grabbed.
Was he out drinking last thing?
No, he had the,
he had the mic on.
He goes up to Shilovs.
Yeah.
Gives one of these like,
hey, we're not done yet.
I'm not done.
Don't you love that,
Red,
don't you love that?
Red,
how don't you love that?
Rhett, why do you hate Sidney
C Crosby.
I think Shoeba is one of the most
easiest people to respect in the game.
Now, she loves a bit of an S-Burger on that first goal.
Yes.
Yeah, like the league's 12 seconds after they take the two-lussing lead.
Who else was going?
Why didn't we put money on bump to score after we had a bit of a comment?
Yeah.
Well, what it was is they took Mishkov out and I cast it.
Well, anytime you can get Alex bump in you.
I got it.
Yeah.
I got it.
That's the score.
It's first ever play out of goal.
I just, you know what?
maybe I'm the only one.
Pittsburgh, sorry, Philadelphia felt so irrelevant in the last two months because it was just like,
no, no, no, it'll be Columbus or it'll be Washington or it'll be Detroit or one of these other
Islanders for sure.
They were 12 points up at one point.
I just was like, this is a team in the mucky middle.
They're going to be, you know, not quite interesting in the draft lottery, not in the playoffs.
Why would I pay attention?
And they sneakily were one of the best two teams in the league the last two months.
And it's like, shit, they've arrived.
a bit with some of these young guys. More tone
helps. They get the D zone locked up with
DeBoer. Like that's, I
missed it. They're actually
a good team. I think I said that
when we brought up to Boer. How's the D coach
feel? Yeah, yeah.
He's getting no credit.
You're more shit. Let's go to DeBoer.
It's some, you know, just
off the cuff conversation
the talk it has with
another guy. We're going to change things.
Oh, what? Yeah. Just watch
this and just try this. We'll be fine.
try this on your resume but that was that was debor
wasn't it? I read debor did all that
yeah
I'd take credit
I don't want Jack to cry in his
I don't either I want good things for Jack
and is it getting a little penguins jersey
yes I don't want tear stains on that
no I think he screwed us that I'll tell you what
Jack the one thing you need to be writ
is gritty
yeah
yeah you think Sid's got eyes
seriously
gritty is going to be wound up
Yeah, he was
Last game, he was throwing penguins off the
I know he was.
Yeah, Peter was upset, I think.
Like, it's a fucking cost.
Settled down.
He'll be pulling all the stuff, cakes.
Oh, yeah.
Like, he'll be,
full Harlem Globetrotter shit.
Mm-hmm.
Full on.
So we asked Jack about game one.
He was not ready.
He was not prepared.
He was hung over.
He was in bed.
He was soft.
You need to have a plan that you are ready to press go on.
Like the red flashing button
needs to be hit if they win game six.
We need you in Pittsburgh.
I got a guy with a motor home.
He said he'll give it to you.
You and your buddies want to hit the road.
It's all yours.
I don't know if we can leave now.
What do you mean?
Like, because we've won back to back here.
We've had a plan.
We've had the same group of guys.
You got game seven on home ice with your team.
You don't want to cheer them on.
Give your head a shake.
Keep half-assing it, Jack.
You're right.
I haven't been half-assing it.
I promise you.
Didn't see any pictures.
as last night.
Oh, you gave me shit for sending too many.
So you kind of flooded us.
So what did you do last night?
Same group of guys, same vibe,
bar no sound.
You got to go through with no sound.
No.
Some of that.
No.
He said Ron and was this?
No.
Did you take that thing?
Yep.
Bullshit.
I don't believe you.
No, you did.
You left it a set.
And now he realized he fucked it.
You just remembered.
Oh, yeah, I didn't say it.
No, I left it here.
Yep.
but it works there too
right behind you
that it exists
is a good thing
it's out there in the world
