A lot of the places, even if it's on sale, still get to 15% off the on sale already. On top of. You guys are familiar with grocery stores? Like, it's not a.

Starting point is 00:02:24 I spend 50 in butter every, every first Tuesday. Yeah. Isn't there like a seniors day as well? Does that overlap? I think it's early in the day. I think they get there early. They're old back.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Now you're almost there too. You're even old. Yeah, that's right. We should have a financial guy. Come on and tell us and we can start collecting some of that old age shit that we're going to be. God damn. Are we old? Yeah, you fell on your tailbone, you loser.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Yeah, like what's in Cairo yesterday? Broke my hip. On your tailbone? A pelvis. I don't want to break my pelvis. No, I didn't break it. It's one of my fears. It's it.
Starting point is 00:03:03 It's what you wake up. cup at the night. Well, like, when, think about if you, it's a guy popped a cat. What can you do if you break your pelvis? You would love it. You fucking sit on your air. Yeah, but I mean, watch TV. Sorry, still. Stay in your basement. What would change? Sorry, kids. You got a broken pelvis.
Starting point is 00:03:22 What happens when you got to take a shit? Where is it going? Aren't you in some sort of cast? Like a whole cast thing? It's not a broken innards. It's a broken pelvis. Oh, I'm sure the innards are working, but if they got like a poop shoot on the back of the cast on you gotta get a bidet is all clean you right up you had a bidet no I ordered a bidet
Starting point is 00:03:40 and nobody would install the damn thing I was too injured to do it myself you know who I could call now crystal waters you're damn the water's plumbing and heating that's right that is the next thing Jesus I am writing that that down you're gonna see I saw that Costco the other day you got
Starting point is 00:03:56 I had so far crystal waters I had to get a exhaust fan replaced in my bathroom Got my furnace all figured out. Get that garage heater. Garage heater's up. Is that the one from Rhett's dad?
Starting point is 00:04:11 That kid, Rick, figures out. That kid's like 6'5 now. Jeez. Gross. You. Jack, have you ever heard the Rett's dad story? No, please tell it.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Well, that's been a while. Well, as I harken back to days of your one of the neighbors, They had a son roughly about the age of my middle child at the time and they would hang out at the park or whatever but they weren't really acquaintances, they would do whatever
Starting point is 00:04:45 play together. I wouldn't say they were friends. I was home one day doing whatever it is that I do at my house when I hear from upstairs. Rats dad. What the
Starting point is 00:05:05 Rets dad? Yeah? You're out of toilet paper. So the neighbor kid, rather than, you know, I got to drop one. Maybe I'll run home. No. I'm just going to give her one here. Maybe I like the away game.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And now there's no TP. And who. Play at any arena. I guess he's, he maybe tried the rat, like maybe called for him first. But he doesn't know what my name is. That's dead. And he was in distress for sure. It's dead.
Starting point is 00:05:38 It's like, okay. Well. I've left five rolls outside the door. You wait, give me 30 seconds to leave before you open the door. Gross. He's 6'5 now. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:53 He's got to shit a second pile to get off the first one now. Is he still like a good road game? I probably. Not afraid. I love this show. There was a second part of that. There was something else that he did too. I thought he clogged her up.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Well, that could have been it. Maybe that is the story. I just remember being yelled at it from inside through a bathroom. Brett's dad. Good times. What a show we've got for you today. What a show. Welcome to the McLeod Law, LLP Studios.
Starting point is 00:06:24 McLeod-Dash law. You need legal assistance, whether it's personal or business, big or small challenges are their business. Maybe you're trapped to someone else's washer. Whatever it is. I don't know. There's probably limits. I'm not sure Peter Klein's going to know is the rules. We know.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Uber to your house. They'd give you a quick answer, though. Drop some, okay. My cloud law. I saw Pete on the weekend. Did you? I dropped off one of our Jasper Pod Hockey jerseys with a beautiful Macau-Ly line. You don't give them a re-biggle?
Starting point is 00:06:56 We're running tight on re-biggles. Did you give any of the boys a rebuk? No, we're too tight for that. My kid loves the re-biggle. Let's take it off. Good. I think it's hilarious. I saw some people horning in on our action.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Yeah, yeah. Those bastards. We talked about it last week. We got to get them on the case. A bunch of pricks. That's the sign of actually a good idea on a t-shirt that someone else steals it immediately in the internet in 2026. We never did put a, is our logo? It's backman.
Starting point is 00:07:21 It's on the back. And then the eye of Reebiggle is the little barn burner look. I see. So I got one for you, but you were embarrassed if we did it. So I don't know how you, do you want it or not? No, I'm fine. I'm sorry. I said you're wearing it.
Starting point is 00:07:34 I don't even, uh, I don't even have one. What do you mean, my t-shirts? My understanding is I know where this is going I don't remember what I've talked about Well, you've been on vacation for about most of the last two weeks, but yes, people are aware.
Starting point is 00:07:55 It's been brought up. Yeah. You can't get higher on the food chain. So they, yes. So the Calgary Flames, they not only play, but the employees work at the Saddle Dome on Saddle Dome Rise Way. Yeah. Whatever it's called there.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yeah. Word. They have access to the internet. Is that right? High speed? Yeah. Even at that old barn?
Starting point is 00:08:16 Yeah. I think it's telling. You got the fiber. Oh, yeah. They're aware of the shirts that were on, on multiple levels. There's the guys that work downstairs. The hardworking guys. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:30 So those shirts. You go up the levels. Oh, there's some of the, you know, the staff. White colors. So. Got any shirts? Right. Go right to the tippy top.

Starting point is 00:09:01 No, what I meant, Jack? Some sort of a special number. I feel like we got boastful and said it was 20, and then it's like, ooh, 1988. Did we get ahead of ourselves a little bit? No, we're cruising now. Were we presumptuous in our, our totals. Anyway, yeah, they're aware of the shirts and there is kind of a
Starting point is 00:09:18 tongue and cheek. I was going to buy so-and-so. Oh, there's a certain guy. A re-biggle shirt. So if I got, how many shirts should I get? Do you think it would be it? So there's that kind of, you know, playful sorts of thing. I got to enjoy life. Once we get in red, we'll be flying. Just out of red shirts. It's up to do. That red dye. It's poisonous, that red dye. How did you ever get that? like oh yeah this is from years ago

Starting point is 00:10:05 Get you can make god damn it You know what though They can't do this No This that we got here Yeah talk about broken I can't do it. Those guys can't do it.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Old goat stories. We're good at that. I actually have a F I'm old. Good. I feel like that's all we are now. I can't decide if it's my, my slippers or what's going on, but I woke up with a major booboo on my foot.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Booboo. Check out these new slippers, by the way, folks. Right here. On your, on your hoof. That's not a hole. That's a, it's a piece of fluff. Right there. Woke up out.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Hmm. Goat? There's a lot of bones in there. You've got tarsals and metatarsals. I got a lot of shit going on your far. I think I have a broken bone. It's all that training I'm doing. Yeah, you're working so hard, guys.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Yeah. I've still got the, I've still got the mark of my toe on my big toe from when I dropped a board on it when I was tearing the deck out last summer. That's right. It's slowly starting to grow its way out. You guys want to see it? No, I'm good. Thanks. I'm reading the box that Rabaxis.
Starting point is 00:11:13 that's so many beers I can have at the dome with the leash. I'm like, this really is taking the wind out of my sales. Aren't you home alone? Yeah, babysitter for three hours, so I can go to the game. What kind of world are we left? Babysitter, that's not new. That's what happened in forever, man.
Starting point is 00:11:27 I didn't ever abandon my children with some skin fucking per babysitter to go to a hockey game. It's their friend's older sister. They're fine. Shit happened. I cook parogies. I left the house. I said, put them in bed to the book in nine. I'll be back after Because he needed to hammer some robaxes.
Starting point is 00:11:47 And get real. Nine beer and back. Some heroin gear down at the film. You are getting into that spot because it's a tricky place where you're at. Yeah. Because you're now not eating one day a week, but you also have to eat. It's the anthem of old people. I need to eat so I can take my pills.
Starting point is 00:12:08 When are you taking your pills if you're not eating? You're supposed to eat with your pills? You're supposed to have. You don't do it on an empty stomach. It's got pills here. You want to bet? Grouch cat. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:12:19 This guy's a pusher, right? Oh my God. He's threw the little down the hatch. Oh, my God. What is going on? I think you missed some. Some went flying over the shoulder. So what do we got in there?
Starting point is 00:12:31 Get some percocet. Got some Ollie. I have Newt, tongue of bat. Tongot, Ollie. Get some knockoff Viagra in there. What the hell's happening, rat? I don't know. My deck's hard and I can't see.
Starting point is 00:12:43 so it's working that's perfect it's like y'all see it buddy Jack let's go for a drink These Corona's like this is what they do This is on they've started
Starting point is 00:12:58 Is this a sports Mickey Safe travel scourgo Get stabbed up there David Alter Toronto sports legends Legends in our midst
Starting point is 00:13:09 here today Just talk slower if they don't understand So were you in your seats in time for the 1-0 goal? Yeah, it's all the time, man. Of course, because he wouldn't. Because he wouldn't be in the bar. It didn't take long.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I guess it's more of the point I'm getting it. Willie styles on a breakway pretty quick, yeah. 35 seconds in. What do you do with the puck just inside your blue line, Red? I like this backhand sauce. Fuck around with it, yeah. Try something that people wouldn't suspect. As a former NHLer, you played in the Western,
Starting point is 00:13:43 league. I sure did. Now the hockey league. And you've, since you've been coaching boys of many age. World Junior Star. How to play the game.
Starting point is 00:13:51 I got told I was an idiot. I think we need to wipe. Have you ever, have you ever recommended the blind backhand sauce across the blue line? It's a select few that I add to offer that advice to.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Do you have the job? Post-Apex Todd Bertuzzi. Love that one. Jonathan Hubertoe got a knack for that backhand sauce with the neutral zone. Here's what it is. When you can't, get there with your speed, you try to adapt, and then you F up.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Right. It's kind of like when Keenan started to sit in me, and I'm like, why would he sit me? And it's because, well, you're not hitting anyone and you can't skate with the puck. So really, what are you doing out here? Good in the room. Huh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:29 So where is our boys? They're still doing the lines here. Oh, it's 30 seconds. Yeah. Fresh start. Fresh ice. Yeah. Got the fresh ice.
Starting point is 00:14:37 So, uh, Dr. Wolf. Okay. Let's watch this. Let her go, Jack. Yeah. Frosty. Oh, no. QB.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Okay, let's back that up. Well, shit. Stop the pock wolf. Great seat for that. Yeah, right there. Okay, so right there you're. Going the wrong way. Definitely going the wrong way.
Starting point is 00:14:55 If he had a white jersey on, it'd be like, oh, shit, they got numbers. Well, you've got to get yourself open, Dean. Maybe that's part of it. Okay, just slowly. You know what? Here's the thing. It's brilliant defense. Yeah, you get four guys around.
Starting point is 00:15:11 What is what hell is you supposed to do with it? I'm surrounded, Dean. And I like Neander. He's like, he's going to backhand sauce this. I'm totally, this guy is. I'm making a jail break here. I bet I'd know it. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:15:25 You know what? You could laugh. Well, I can't decide if you can laugh about it now because it happens a lot or if you'd laugh about it more if it happened. I also wonder, I'm sorry, I know this is Warner's Whiteboard. I wonder what's going through the D pairings. Oh, no, no, no, don't, no, don't, whatever you, you're not going to. You're not going to eat it. Eat it.
Starting point is 00:15:47 It's like, why are you facing me, by the way? And. Netsov, get your ass back. What is Hughby going to do here? This guy at 150 points. Don't worry. He's going to.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Oh, dear. See you. Oct it out of the air. It's a good play. But it's totally unnecessary. Good on, Kuzi. Diving, nearly gets the stick on it. Take a seat, kid.
Starting point is 00:16:11 And Johnny says, ooh, Zootalori. Almost gets it. You're right, dude. I actually think he got his, like, slowly. I think he actually, and it's screwed up Wolf because I'm not joking. I feel like, well, Brent Cron in the Shorzie game, stopping this shot. You got to give some credit to, like, one of the top 10 scores in the last half decade.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Shut up. Cronin, what had it? Cronin at 20 minutes in the league, like 20, not 21, not nice. 20 minutes, like one. Cronter would have just windmill death. No problem. He's the man that I can no longer speak of. Grana.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Oh, it's all right. He sent me a nice note. Dave was all hammered at the poker tournament trying to butter me up. Yeah. Well, he knows where his bread is buttered. He does. Speaking of butter, a lot of butter. A lot of butter.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Is it even a thing? Well, sorry, I know we're going to carry on with this, this game and this storyline, but it's not even a thing that Huberto does that because that's just. That was the play where I noticed Hubertoe last night. That's a $10.5 million dollar occupant. The rest was just a guy. it's honestly we kind of talk about it bad it's a lot of that where it's here comes i can't like you say i'm not going to be able to get there so i have to make a play with the puck and it's backhand sauces
Starting point is 00:17:30 that are waist level yeah missing guys like what am i what am i doing with that thank you you may we'll just dump it in the corner and change. It's safer than what you're doing. It is so bad and it's a conversation that we've seen coming for so long and it started so poorly and then there was an eight-year extension after that year. It's just the difference between Calgary and Toronto is that this guy would be torn to shreds and everyone would be calling him, you know, horrible things. And here it's just we're pretending it's not happening.
Starting point is 00:18:00 We're pretending it's not happening. I don't disagree. But. what would in defense of us if we were going to come on every day and have the Hubert old blast what would it accomplish nothing because we all know
Starting point is 00:18:13 we're living with it I'm not I'm not accusing anyone to care of doing anything wrong I'm just saying like yelling at the guy's not going to fix it we know you're fucked for the next five years with this guy it's totally full of signing bonus money is there any he's a completely an effective player
Starting point is 00:18:27 we're screwed to buying out no what is the buyout when let's do the buyout you want to save 600 grand a year, let's do it. But honestly, pay them for eight years now or 10 years? If it's a sunk cost. So any signing bonus money cannot be bought out.
Starting point is 00:18:42 And we'll walk you through the signing bonus money on this contract. Because if you got relief from signing bonus money, absolutely buy them up for sure. Knock that cap it down from 10 to 3 and double the term. But let's just because I go through the process. Yeah, I'll kind of buy some time because I'm totally putting you on the spot here. But I do see some people, it's another year in. Does it make more sense? now even if you look beyond the cap because you're without 10 and a half million for the next
Starting point is 00:19:09 five years it's just gone sunk cost if you recoup any of it and don't have to put that guy in the ice wow is there any value to it or remember the double the term thing right right so you're married to this issue if it's five more years now it's 10 if you buy them out and so I like are they going to be good between five and 10 years I fucking hope so right like Like you almost want to just eat all the pain now so that when you're coming into the second and third contracts of good players that you're drafting high the next few years, then he's not on the books. You don't need the cap space the next four or five years. What kind of dude is he is he good in the room? Because if he's fine in the room and good with the young guys, you're not in a position where you need the 10 and a half.
Starting point is 00:19:55 So his signing bonus is $9.5 million, $9.5 million, $7 million, $9.5 million, $5 million. So you could buy it the last year and it would help you. The rest is pretty much you're saving a few hundred grand. Yeah, not good at all. His base salary $1 million, $1 million, $3.5.5. So the last year, why would you do that? Because it's a benefit for the player
Starting point is 00:20:18 because he's getting... Because Alan Walsh had Bradshaw living over a barrel and he did something emotional, which is something we talk about GMs always... It's bad when you do that. He wanted to prove someone with signing cavalry. I know. So that's how you got it. Alan Walsh. I understand.
Starting point is 00:20:32 that he this is a bad contract but what's the benefit to the player from the signing bonus instead of getting two-thirds of the money when the buy-mode he's going to get all this money so maybe the last is it just is that so it's just more as buyout proof yeah that's okay that's all i'm asking no i was trying to talk down to you at all i just think like we've called a buy-up proof since the moment it was signed because it's the vast majority of this money is in bonuses which cannot be bought out see i didn't there's but there's a lot of players that have that kind of structure No. Not to that extent.
Starting point is 00:21:02 There's maybe a dozen in the list. Luchich was the same thing when Edmondson signed him. Which was one of the worst signs of all time. I'm saying, there's no one else that the flames have signed ever with anything similar to this. But I think organizationally, it's one of one. Do you think, but I'm being serious, do you think Huberto is having fun?
Starting point is 00:21:22 No, I think he's putting on a brave face and trying to be a leader. What I'm getting at is he's going to get older. He's going to feel more removed from it, but he's going to feel worse. Well, unless he finds the fountain of youth and rejuvenates, I don't see that coming. He's going to get hurt.
Starting point is 00:21:42 If there was ever a Robeda Island, Carrey Price, Avaldads, like, yeah. It's going to be one of those, I got a bad back. Oh,
Starting point is 00:21:51 yeah, go see the doctor. Checking over here. Yeah, was the doctor going to tell you got, your back's not bad? Nope. Bad back. I'm out.
Starting point is 00:21:59 So if, again, it's a little conspiracy theory, but if that were the case. Seriously. He's going to get his money. Yep. But it's insured, so it's LTIR.
Starting point is 00:22:09 Who cares if it's insured? Is an ownership. What I mean is he's getting his money. And you get the cap space. But the team would get the cap space. He's going to get his money no matter what because of the way the contract is structured, blah, blah, blah. It sounds like there's no real threat of losing.
Starting point is 00:22:22 If he ever gets to a point where he's so frustrated with how he's playing and then maybe that's. The last year would be there would be some savings from a bio. And there's no rush to get there because we're, I think you watched the game last thing. They're not close. They're not. I did any sort of. No.
Starting point is 00:22:40 No. It's almost. So they've got three years before they need that 10 and a half. And even then, what's the cap out? Probably $130 million. Are you in a car? Are you paying the cap? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:52 What's interesting? I just want to. What's he on pace for? He's less than 40 points. Less than 40. He has less than 24. He's 24 points. He has nine goals.
Starting point is 00:23:04 I thought we were high. Less than 40. Yeah, he's on pace to miss the 40. You know what, though? He's got the break coming. He's going to come back rejuvenated like the boom, like the boom cat. I was also, and again, it does,
Starting point is 00:23:17 so he's like, why are we pilot on Hubey? It's, look, it's a daily show. The other thing, we don't pile on you. I don't. I haven't mentioned his name. Like, it's just we have to go on. And to that end, I don't ever see him doing interviews. Do you?
Starting point is 00:23:29 What do you want to talk to him about? Well, it's just he's He's the highest paid player. He's one of the leaders. He's a lot of games. I see Cadry and Uighur and back. Like I see a lot of the other veteran guys talking. I never see him in front of a game.
Starting point is 00:23:44 No, Anglic. The PR people also put people's 99 points. So you know who doesn't get the points. You guys used to be down there and request guys, right? Well, that's what it is. There's a combination. You had to, the reporter still go in the room. You can ask for guys.
Starting point is 00:24:02 You asked for guys and they come home. would you like. We're going to give you this guy and that guy. So last night, for example, oh, you're going to get Perak. You're going to hear Cadreux, obviously the former Lee, Fonterio. Can I make a special point here? Yeah, fire. Can we not talk about load management for Zane Perak on the show? Yeah, I'm kidding.
Starting point is 00:24:19 I know you've got it circled and you want to, but it is just. Load management. Play the piss out of this kid the rest of the way. Fuck, we talk. But that's how you're going to get there is by talking about Tommy Minnesty plays. You may not start with load management. Just doing it last night. That's the first time all year.
Starting point is 00:24:31 They've just played them. Perfect. Why is that a topic and why does it have to be? No, just good. Just go. Everywhere I turned yesterday was, oh, there's going to be a load. What are we talking about? It has been. It's honestly, it's been so oddly and weirdly delicate.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Yes. With this player. He's not playing it off. Does the coach put him in the right spots? He's injured. Is he going to where is he going to play? Well, how do you play him? Who do you go into gym for 10 days?
Starting point is 00:24:59 Holy smokes. Can I do a little quick breakdown on this? You're in the bottom. bottom five in the NHL. You got like less than 30 games left. 27. You have the top prospect in your organization who has played 11 games before last night. Damn right.
Starting point is 00:25:14 And he is best suited to create offense. Last night you saw him on Power Play 1. You saw him out for the vast majority of the last two minutes. And he had over 20 minutes total. Just keep doing that. Don't overthink this. It's not that hard. I'm just going to give it to him.
Starting point is 00:25:31 We agree on that. We agree on that. Yeah. Because like how we got here and what they should have done and what plan, just play them. But that's not what they're telling you. No, but they can tell us whatever they want. They told us this team is competitive and winning culture. They tell you all kinds of nonsense.
Starting point is 00:25:44 But the thing is, that's the plan until he gets knocked. That is, oh, well, he handled the rigors. He's injured again. Now he has to sit. Kenny, he's rushing him back. So the only way he's going to adapt to different time and space in the NHL, which is why he's getting it, is to play. Like, the more I watched the outside,
Starting point is 00:26:04 the more I'm thinking about that. And it's like, he wasn't great last. night, but he showed you why he's a special player. He's a unique player. Yeah. Like, the skill set is so rare and like, is he perfect? Absolutely not. Does he have some like next level skills that 90% of the league doesn't have? Yeah, he does. So you just got
Starting point is 00:26:19 to let him play and figure it out. There were a couple of plays where he had the puck and really got rid of it in a hurry. He doesn't want to make the mistake. You can tell he's got some nerves. As that calms down, you need to have the puck son. You're the guy who can make things happen with it when that starts to happen. But yeah, it's, it's, it's,
Starting point is 00:26:38 it feels like everybody's just there's nervous energy around. Well, and to be fair, like, I think when you have the first five months of the year that he's had, that's how we get here. Because they didn't just play the piss out of it. It's also the desperation of a franchise that needs a star player to pan out. They have to make sure vibes are great, and I get that. I get that. But again, like, he played seven minutes his last game back in November.
Starting point is 00:27:03 It's been that long. So maybe it's the standings now. And maybe because, you know, he played 10 of his 11 games in a miserable month where they were the worst team in the NHL on pace to have like the lowest scoring season ever. But like, yeah, that was a while ago. Teams in a different spot. D-Corps looks a little different. There's no Rasmus. So maybe it's great.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Power play one. Maybe it's one of those just give the coaching staff a bit of a break. The situation's different. Yeah. If they use them like last night, there's no complaints. All right. So judge by their actions. They played the, they played the piss out of them, end of the hockey game in need of a goal.
Starting point is 00:27:35 He's out there. I have no. issue with his usage I don't there's a million different ways that they could have used them they will use them what do you think about his load management that's the it's like why do you have to tell me about this why am I why when I turn the radio on them I hearing about this kid that's way too much radio I do a lot of driving I got kids going here and there what am we to look at the jacobilder country posts you heard of a pot I do listen then I get down crazy
Starting point is 00:28:02 trained and then I get wound up so then I have to shut it off yes well there are others beyond JR. Oh, I don't hardly, I was weird. I was driving the other team. Like,
Starting point is 00:28:12 I have a lesson of Rogan in a while. Got to find him. Yeah. I don't know. He should play. Buy him. Do what you want. This notion that he's going to put on a bunch of muscle and be a
Starting point is 00:28:25 Venice beach over the Olympic break. Well, they've got a 10 day break. He's going to be in the gym. He's like, cool. So how much weight could you put on in 10 days? Like 16.
Starting point is 00:28:34 And you want to read and put on? on in 10 days. And if you want to read into that, it's just in Cabo. Cuffets were delicious. If you want to read into that, that to me, because it doesn't make sense, like, okay, well, he's going to work. Great. Does that mean he's never been in a gym before?
Starting point is 00:28:49 No, it means he's gone from playing against boys to the top league in the world, and he needs to add mass and everyone knows it. He had a whole summer last year. It sounds like he didn't do it then. It'll take a bunch of summers for this guy. He's a slender, slight kid, for sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:05 and all those pills but no I don't think anyone's saying okay like here's finished product Zane Perak like everyone Zane team fans knows this guy's gonna have to add like five to 15 pounds of mass but I think it's not to repeat my own point because I think I'm right about it
Starting point is 00:29:24 but I do I think the team is because it's more than just vibes they need the relationship with this player they need this to work out they really really do I thought it's the best prospect they've had in that like since kichuk like it does have to work what were you going to say house well i read the paper this morning because i get up here tradition media cat you brain rabbit ears in your tv were you watching i got that implant that neurolink that's good
Starting point is 00:29:49 so i don't have to and uh i forget what i was going to say some of hirilinks i thought it was interesting he's like well that's what he gets paid to do and it was one of his quotes when talking about paracama offense yeah yeah Yeah, I watched the Huska post game on Prex interesting because he was such a focal point. I was not. I had like two beers, but I was a little loopy on the Roebaks set. Well, I'll tell you, a guy that we've talked about a little bit is Weiger. He, there was a play last, it's just he, and it's not letting him off the hook.
Starting point is 00:30:26 He's now a minus 32 for the season. Comey's got him way up top of that green jacket leaderboard. There was, and the reason I recognize it is because I feel like, like I relate to it. There's not much about being a pro athlete or any of that that I can relate to. But he's standing beside the net and there was a quick play and he went, had to turn to it. I think it was
Starting point is 00:30:45 his right. And as he did it, it was kind of one of those old man. Like it was, you could see like his hip or something. Oh, he had one of those. It's like, oh yeah, there's, there's this guy, no one in that locker room is more ready for a three
Starting point is 00:31:00 week break than McKenzie Weeger mentally and physically. He's He's still playing 20 plus every night getting worked and ground into dust. It's a tough year. I give him credit because you can see he's working, but God, is it anything that can will go wrong,
Starting point is 00:31:17 it seems when he's on the ice right now. Even the awful Huberto back, of course, Uyghurs getting, collecting a dash on it. Of course. That's just how it's going for him this year. Have you gone through stretches like that,
Starting point is 00:31:28 and I'm not even taking the piss out here, but where it just feels, no, where it's like, I can't believe, okay, this was a shit game, next one will be better. And then maybe the next one's worse. Like we have those days and runs in life and stuff, but I think we're, you're on such a huge stage.
Starting point is 00:31:44 Everyone's watching you and judging you, not as a person, but as a player. It's, it's got to be tough for him because he went into Team Canada camp this summer. Did he know? Yes. Like there was very high, high hopes here. There were a lot of people saying, I like we're going to be on the
Starting point is 00:32:00 Four nations. Maybe is Paraco? Is it him? about the Charlie kids. A trillion miles away from that now. Right. How quickly it turns. And again, I don't think it's lack of effort. No.
Starting point is 00:32:13 We don't harp on, well, we're a good sports show because we make fun of management and that's about it. But we don't harp on Huberdo. We've questioned the correct stuff a little bit and not understanding what's going on. Really aren't that hard on weaker. You minus 32, you could be. Right? Like, there's a lot of guys on this team where you could go, hmm. Any, what I'm getting at is
Starting point is 00:32:36 We're very fair. What a great show we are. All the above, but fair shake. I've mentioned it. We're worried about Codry getting older and slower. All these veteran guys we have. Are we sure this isn't what we're seeing out of weaker? How old is he?
Starting point is 00:32:54 32. That's when it happens. It could be. Quite often. It happens as a defense. It can start then. No, no question. No, it does.
Starting point is 00:33:02 I'm telling you, you go to their history and the games change because guys are in better shape, take better care of themselves. 32 as a defenseman was always like, are you going to stick around? Are you done? You're asking someone to be an outlier to get better after that point? Like, Gio wanted 35 or whatever, which is insane, Norris. But, like, yeah, there's not many players in the NHL that have seasons at 32 that are not declining from the prime.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Like, almost all of them are. You have to be a real outlier. Now, that said, where one year, uh, removed from Rasmus looking cooked and Uighur is absolutely the best D man. And now it's the role reversal this year. Like, I think there's a lot of bad luck and like everything that can go wrong will go wrong. Murphy's Law shit.
Starting point is 00:33:43 There's a better player than we're watching. But yeah, he's aging. Like he's not going to get faster. Three years to the good. Right. But my point is just how quickly it changed year over year with Rasmus, right? Because again,
Starting point is 00:33:55 this maybe didn't take place last night. But you do that kind of mind your role play. Okay, weaker, here we go. All right, boys. Fuck, let's get a wind here. The Leafs, they're struggling. Screw these guys. And then Huberto throws a sauce.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Oh, I would be. And it's back the other one. Zing, you're like, I'm going. I couldn't get a minute into my first. Can't even get off the ground. I couldn't get it. My first shift, I'm dash one. You'd be just like.
Starting point is 00:34:20 He's yelling at Jack. Jack. Let's get that out of a good for a drink. Then all the guys in the blue shirts are up yelling and dancing. Hey, Hubey. Thanks, pal. Thanks, bye. I wonder if there is some frustration down there.
Starting point is 00:34:37 I think that the... There's room or... Yeah, well, and I mean, I'm making this up as just... Yeah, you're wondering. You know, we're struggling. Huberto can't feel good about where he's at. Coleman's out, which he was having a good year. Like, what's the vibe like down there?
Starting point is 00:34:55 Well, they're a good group. Yeah, okay. I'm not questioning. I actually think this group is... The fact this group doesn't have to tell us that they get along. It means they probably get along pretty good. But if you are Uyghur, you are having a shitty year and you watch
Starting point is 00:35:11 that first, Pat, and you're like, there has to be some competitive nature where, and further, is Hubert don't get in his ass set? Yeah. Did it a mystery one game, lower body thing where he was gone and then you, uh, if,
Starting point is 00:35:29 if Zame Perak made that pass? Oh God, yeah. Have a seat. Which, I'll say this. Like at the poker tournament last week, you get a chance to mix and mingle, see you guys interact and chatted with a bunch of the vets. And they know what they are. They also see huge value in making sure that this is a great incubator
Starting point is 00:35:48 for young players. And like speaking with Uigh or particular, he's like, look, from his mouth to my ears. Like, we need this to be a place where kids can come in and it's a positive environment. And that's what that leadership group is focused on. They understand they're going to win a cup guys. They do.
Starting point is 00:36:05 And he's frustrated about the season he's having. I can't decide if I like that or not. I'm not letting that culture get to a point where, like, guys don't want to come to the room. We have to keep it late in fun. That's what you said with the bingo balls earlier in the year. Like, keep it like. You know,
Starting point is 00:36:19 but if that's your sole objective as a fucking hockey player, well, shame on you. It's a sole objective. But they understand where they're at and they understand that to get this organization to the next level, part of their job is shepherding young players. Mad, yo, Pinder. It ain't Pinder's fault.
Starting point is 00:36:34 if that's what they've created, then what the, are they selling to us? It's the hashtag winning culture. Yeah, what are you selling to us? This is the re-biggle. So if the players know and they think they're shit,
Starting point is 00:36:46 then we're not allowed. It's saying they're saying they're shit. They know where they are on the stage. They just said that they know. They understand they are not a cup contender, as everyone does. The standings are freely available for everyone to see. They understand where they're at.
Starting point is 00:36:58 They understand, like, who's having a career out of this group? Like, to your point, like, who's having a good time. Nause is way down from last year's career. I can tell you right now, that this is a bunch of BS, that yes, I don't disagree with what you're saying, that they're trying to sell this. It makes it more BS,
Starting point is 00:37:12 in my opinion, because it's like, well, if you know that, what are your hopes for next year then in getting better? Caudry, I'm not playing well, and I'm only going to get worse. I'm not playing well. But we're going to make it nice for the kids. I think what's happening is I'm paraphrasing a conversation. Your takeaways aren't really the conversation
Starting point is 00:37:28 that I had somehow, which is not your fault or mine. but the point was like you're asking about frustration in the room. I think they're frustrated that they're not good. I don't think they're stunned. They're not good. I think they all understood with the roster on paper they had. This was at some point not going to be a 96 point team, whether that was a year down the road or now.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Everything went right last year and away, didn't it? I just think that it's great that they can say it's positive right now. Lose for a couple years and see. Yeah, well, they have been. It's four years. And I don't think that's them being. okay with losing. I think that's them understanding. Well, let's ask that question.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Let's throw it out there. No one gives a shit what we think. But is that a winning culture? Do they have a group of, like, it's a positive culture. It's San Juan, a winning culture. I also think it's a conversation you have at a charity event with somebody he's going to say the right thing. No, and I, like, I'm not here trying to say, like, here's the quotes
Starting point is 00:38:24 of the conversation. The just I got was he's frustrated. He knows he's not playing well. He also understands part of his job as a letter player. is to make sure this is an environment where Zane Preck comes in and can develop as a player and be turned into a good NHL. And part of that is not being like screaming after you lose. When you know, you're just not as good as the other team. I'm not saying they're throwing their hands up and quit.
Starting point is 00:38:45 And I'm not saying it doesn't bug them that they're not winning. I'll say this and there's two things that it just, I don't know why. It's about not just making things okay for the kids, but it's also making, keeping them accountable. Yes. Teach them to work. You were one of those guys. I saw it firsthand in the locker room one day after a morning skate.
Starting point is 00:39:08 There was a younger first round drafted forward who was in the room and the media was in there. And I believe it was something to do with picking up pucks at the end of the skate or something. And you kind of let the guy know. It's probably something to first year guy helped the coaches out with it was something along those lines. So it's not just a, hey, everything's going to be fun, buddy. It's a, we're going through it, the good and the bad. There's some, this is how we become pro. Well, you know what?
Starting point is 00:39:40 I want them to be a little more frustrated then. Maybe they are. And you look all of a sudden on this blue line. Like, Kuznetsov. Guys, 23? Can't believe they're running Bristavits out of town. Brestovic is what, 21 per X 19? My point is you got three guys in the first 50 NHHO games.
Starting point is 00:40:02 of their career. Teaching them how to work, how to win, as much as they can on a team that's not winning. And, you know, it's also not totally their job either to. No, I'm just saying they understand that part of leadership is helping these young kids. And maybe that's saying, don't pick up, pick up, because I feel like saying, don't beat yourself up on a turnover. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 00:40:21 But they understand their job here is to help three good young defensemen in the first 50 games of their career playing decent minutes. Was it Columbus where Weiger put the, what, pumped the one up back up the wall, it was basically three guys coming the other way. It's like, oh, fucking Uyghur's terrible. It's like, yeah, bad play. Yeah, bad year. Also, would love some help there.
Starting point is 00:40:40 Where's everybody else? But it's on me. I feel like shit. I'm minus 32. The Olympics are an absolute, like, that I was ever in that conversation is a joke. I'm as bare as I was. We're not getting to the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Rasmus is probably leaving. And my hips killing me. They're won four and two since the Rasmus trade. For whatever that's worth. What were they before that? So are the Vegas's, by the way. But what were they before that? Well, they'd had a bit of a better run than that.
Starting point is 00:41:08 The January was awful. They lost six to seven here now. And I don't see how it really. It's all fine. And again, they were three, eight and two in January before they beat the sharks. So they finished four eight and two. They've lost, they've won once in their last seven. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:24 And Vegas has been shit with Rasmus. I mean, it's small samples. It doesn't mean it doesn't mean it's not going to fit there. But it's, what are they? they need there's some guys that need some need to get away from the rank for a little bit because it's what they can say whatever they want that ain't fun no it isn't fun
Starting point is 00:41:42 I'll tell you what you want to make McKenzie Weger's life a little bit easier maybe don't play them with a waiver claim B a replacement of a player or see a guy in his first 15th is it's the only pairs he's had for two years that was what he was here for like better for it well I mean it's not all in nothings I'm just saying like Kevin Ball's right there and you're going to put,
Starting point is 00:42:02 hang on, no, no, but hang, let me finish. There's one guy on the right side who I really think is superb in his own end and doesn't need a security blanket. That's, like, White Cloud. Guess who they're playing him with? It's not quite cloud. And I get it.
Starting point is 00:42:15 It's like, Rasmus out of this guy in. But like, you can either put him with a rookie and help him his own zone or maybe let McKenzie Weger play with a guy that hasn't been on waivers or is a fringy NHL or in his first 50 games. That's his last two years.
Starting point is 00:42:27 And I'm not saying that's the whole thing. Put your coach's hat. Yeah, I'm not playing White Cloud and ball together. You're going to try and spread some shit out. It's just that every time they spread out the last two years, it's Murrow and it's Hanley. And now it's because that's of what I like, but God,
Starting point is 00:42:44 like how many games does he play? 20-something? I think he's okay. He's fine. It's just, we never gets a guy. Like he spent his whole fucking career playing with Eckblad in Florida. And when it was Hanofin and Tannav and Rasmus Anderson here,
Starting point is 00:42:59 that's a top four defenseman. None of the guys I named are tough were defensemen in the NHL. So they act. They played last night and lost four to two. I don't know if we talked. Oh, the actual. The flames.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Flandre and a goal and an assist. Perfect. 18 saves. They had chances, boys. That would not have played Wolf because I would have played him against Edmonton. Now you're going to play him three in a row and then Kooley's going to sit there.
Starting point is 00:43:24 No, they're going to be coolie and tomorrow ago. Does that make any sense? They've been alternating. that broke the alternation. I think it was nine in a row. They alternated until last night. So I don't think it was right.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Yeah. It said, well, now it's three in a row. And look, like, we could talk quality of shots. Hey, welcome to the game, Dustin. Here's a breakaway 35 seconds in or whatever it is. I kicked myself immediately. But I was like, how did we not take Nylander for an anytime goal? He kills the flames.
Starting point is 00:43:52 And Bobby McMahon, who is Shelburton and Nolves against his old team. Like, I just, oh yeah, Neelander overtime goal in Toronto. Oh, Neil Adder. He absolutely feasts on these guys. It was right there for the taking. McMahon, Cadre, and Nealander were so obvious in hindsight. I don't know if the Leafs are any good. I'm not sure they are.
Starting point is 00:44:11 They're terrible in their own end. They got some saves. We showed it last week. They're like the worst in the league at most defensive metrics in their own end. Like slot chances, high quality chances, cycle chances. This was just a look at some of the stuff that the flames had. Not that they deserved to win this game, but it was there on the stick of a few guys. Matt Coronado is another guy that we've not
Starting point is 00:44:31 flying. Talked a lot about. Best game in a while. White Cloud with the pass. It feels like that almost kind of went off a stick funny. I don't know. There's the crossbar and stays out again from Coronado. Who just has to feel like when's the plane leave?
Starting point is 00:44:51 You've been back on chopping. Misses it by like two inches. New Yorker. One goal game. Eight left in the third. Here's the weird one that goes off side. Is this the only angle there is on this replay? No, there's no overhead on this one too. There we go. So it kind of goes off the, somehow. He actually misses it short side. Yeah. It's still a hell of a play by wall. If he doesn't,
Starting point is 00:45:15 is that how you fell on your tailbone? Close. Close. Didn't have as much padding on. Oh, that'll get you. I don't get you. I'll put a hitch in your giddy up. Yeah. That's what that'll do. So yeah, I mean, the tank gods are smiling last thing. Yeah. Because he usually could have stole a point and they were down three nothing and they worked like it was a classic ethical classic flames game get down early don't stop working get back into it could add a few more bounces other team scored three that means we had to score four we can't really do that yeah they did that once in january that's that would be tough that one play that neelander makes on the machilli goal the two nothing
Starting point is 00:45:51 goal yeah like frost is below the goal with the puck okay i'm gonna make a play here yeah and somehow Now, Nealander comes in, gets the puck, shoot out to the slot. Okay, I guess I don't have the puck now. It's in my net. Well, and then look at Wolf. Like, what's he supposed to do? This guy wide open on Main Street here. So here's Frost.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Weigs goes for escape behind the net. I've got position. The puck's in front of Frost. And Nealander finds Machelli alone. There's Weigs, our buddy again. Tough, tough, tough. And so if you're Dustin Wolf, like, look at those two quality of chances. Clear breakaway and guy wide open from.
Starting point is 00:46:29 below the hash. You need to defend Wolf. No one's giving them. No, and I'm not saying you guys are, but it's just like, when you look at the numbers, they're not great. Like, this is why.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Look at the quality of chance here. Well, give your boy grinned shit. What the hell's he doing? Well, I don't know that the winger is supposed to cover the slagher. He's got a good seat.
Starting point is 00:46:45 Yeah, but he's watching and he's there. He's watching. Dino nails it. Everyone thinks Frost got under control, and that's why Uighur abandons a friend of another thing. But it's just poor goalie.
Starting point is 00:46:56 Fuck, that's tough. I don't feel bad for why. It's quite a nice contract. He'll be fine. I'm a goalie dad. I got sympathy now. I got crap from a goalie this morning.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Said that drills were shit. There is that. Just you think everyone's at me like, wow, there's not enough pucks with the goalies. No, there were too many. Oh, too many. Too many, Trevor. Too many, Chuck. Too many.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Shit. Love you, boys. Outdoor dental. Treve. Get your teeth looked at. Too many. Get your teeth looked at. Get your life figure.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Hear it out. Dr. J Patel, outdoor dot dental is the website. It's leading, it's like cutting edge leading class. The solea laser. It's amazing what they can do with technology. And we've been talking about this for years and it's still revolutionizing the dental field. And what we've, I mean, we've been kind of talking about the snoring treatments. Maybe sleeping on the fat house. I was soaring last night.
Starting point is 00:47:57 That it's done amazing things for just like dental implants and treatment. all that sort of thing. But the snoring treatments, they take the Soleil Laser, increases the tension in the soft palate, reduces snoring, you do two 15-minute treatments, and all of a sudden,
Starting point is 00:48:11 you're sleeping better, you're having more sleep, longer sleep, more sound, and deeper, they're getting better rest, you're in a better mood. Just makes perfect sense.
Starting point is 00:48:20 Go see Dr.J, outdoor. dot dental is the website. If they can help that basis from that reggae band, they can help anyone. That's right. You look so much better.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Better now. Oh, yeah. Because hey, listen, everyone's got their opinions, but I've got, I get both. You think he looked better there? No. Now. Yeah. Civilian hair I call this.
Starting point is 00:48:42 Which is interesting because you're, you know, your kids are probably challenging you more now than they would have been then. It's a different type of a challenge. I don't think he says it's a mugger. I just think he likes their hair better this length. Yeah. I thought it was very sloppy. I don't know what.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Yeah. Oh, well, it's, you know what? It's summer. So he's got some tan going. But I'm just talking Two years of hair though That's not a season It's a lot of flow
Starting point is 00:49:05 I don't know It does really like interestingly Like I could give a shit What anyone does with their hair It really offended a lot of people To their core Really yeah I do love people that have opinions on
Starting point is 00:49:15 Other people Yeah I can tell by that way What he's doing Man bun Man buns do Yeah guys Really twisted up
Starting point is 00:49:25 It's like what do you How would you care Gosh it's the Yankees thing How dare you Have facial hair on this sports team Hurr Like what
Starting point is 00:49:38 What See when I hear stuff like that It almost makes me feel good About how little Shit I give about just about everything Yeah Like I just don't care up the purses That some of these
Starting point is 00:49:49 Or the merces or whatever Those sidebags When they run Matthews out of town We had another highlight real A J on him Did he really? What did he say? spending more time with their earrings and their purses and necklaces than getting ready for the
Starting point is 00:50:05 game and I'm like this guy's on fire old man from olds alberta old's man yeah old's man weighs in on matthews it's good never born how was the vibe a lot of blue seemed very rowdy for the first period on tv and then it kind of felt flatter I don't know that I've ever been to a Monday 8 p.m. game. Like, you'll see the 8s, but Monday. Oh. And so everyone's kind of like, okay, are we doing this? And then it's like the Leafs come up for warm up. Okay, yeah, we get it. You come to one game of year. You're excited.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Nice brand new jersey. You always love Michelli. I get it. But then they score early so the Leafs fans are going. Then the flames clawed in. And then everyone's lubricated by the third. And it was a good crowd. Did you get the, your, the Pinder ISO cam on Austin, Matthews much just to watch. I noticed him twice. He really was not a quiet factor. Quieter than Huberto.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah. And I think we talked about it. We had him for shots. I was watching. But, like, Nealander was dynamic last night. I was kind of isocamming on Zane because it was first game since early November in the league. And who else that had?
Starting point is 00:51:23 I thought Coronado really had a lot of jump. Like, yeah, I think he finished with seven shots, 13 attempts. but he had a ton of um corn i was the only one that stood out in a really positive positive man i thought the team played well enough it's not a not even trying to be no but critical but corinato okay that guy was and obviously caught your revenge spot you could see that happening i don't know if it's revenge anymore no it's just you know he's going to get up for the whole i used to play for this team i'm from ontario like the least surprising thing to happen last night was nazim having a good game against the least yeah right good for him
Starting point is 00:51:57 I shouldn't eat all those pills the earliest earlier last night. Yeah. I saw it. I guess I, yeah, I did read it. I think it was from their DFO live or whatever the show is. Carter Hutton was talking about Austin Matthews. And what's his, he's like the thing that different about him. I think part of it was who's going to be the next American to maybe now that Patrick
Starting point is 00:52:22 Kane is overtake, who's the next. Or just in terms of goal scoring. He's like, if you look at. some of the best players. You look at Ovechkin, and he was a power forward, like fast. And Connor McDavid now is so fast. Not to say Matthews is slow,
Starting point is 00:52:38 but he doesn't give you that electrifying speed, blazing speed kind of a feel to get to places to score. It's, I'm open, I'm in a spot and my shot is lethal. I can beat goalies standing still, but.
Starting point is 00:52:53 He's more of like the size, hands release guy. Yeah. He's not the blazing speed. I don't know why it's popped my head, but like, I think of like Milan Hayduke, like powerful, great hands, heavy shot. Milan. I just popped in my head. I don't know why. But like, you're right.
Starting point is 00:53:09 Like, because a lot of the superstars are just blazing speed in today's game. Like you watch McKinnon and McDavid, and you're like, holy shit, these guys just fly. And Sid is like this blue color superstar where you just out grits and out works everyone. And then you've got these super high and finesse guys. And Matthews is just kind of this blend of size and finesse. And he's certainly not slow. but he's not a burner. He can be as great as he wants to be.
Starting point is 00:53:32 And honestly, he's got a shot at Ovi's number if he wants to play till he's 40, whatever, and can keep going at a high rate. He's at that kind of start to his career where he's tracking for that. I don't think anyone's going to live up. He's been hurt a lot. But he's the only guy that's taking a run at 70 goals
Starting point is 00:53:49 in like 25 years. There is no denying how good he can be. But if you're not, the Leaves and what does he go? 47 points. It's not good enough as the captain of the Leaves and a team that's supposed to... Slow start,
Starting point is 00:54:09 been a lot better lately, but he doesn't give you that feel. You're not allowed to have slow starts and be shitty. Like, no one makes, McKinnon doesn't come to the ranks and make excuses. He's not making an excuse, but what I'm saying is this is not a consummate
Starting point is 00:54:24 leader of men. I think he's a very good player, but it's not like we're watching Sidney Crosby. And that doesn't mean he can't be a great player and have success and win a lot in this league. But his greatest skill is not leadership. It's not his will to win. I think it's probably quite adequate, but he's going to be compared with Hall of Famers, not average NHLers.
Starting point is 00:54:48 It's tough when, like you say, he has all that ability. It's not tough. You'd love it. We'll take them. But 50 games, 26 goals, 47. point. So he's not quite a point of game. And there are the injuries. He didn't get that when he got clunked there by his door off or whatever. So he's not a real leader and he's not a burner and he's under a point of game and he's making so much money. You, you kind of wish there was more. And this is probably like a career worst year type of thing, right? Like this is everything going wrong. It's not a career. It's not about a one season thing. It's about the fact
Starting point is 00:55:21 we talked about it. I'm not the hell do I care about Matthews not helping the Leafs win. but he's not showed up in the big games and made a difference when he's had the opportunity. There have been big games where you could have made, you could have been, he probably will have a bloody statue anyway, but they would have been naming streets after you. Like him and Leon aren't that dissimilar,
Starting point is 00:55:44 but one guy's got the signature performances in big spots and the other doesn't. Yeah. And it takes one year, whatever is the flames. One year, if he scores the big goal, it all,
Starting point is 00:55:55 it all changes. But to your point, it was what, eight or nine or ten post seasons in a row where those spots kept coming up
Starting point is 00:56:01 and more often than not, we were left wanting more. And I don't know where he wants to be considered in the hierarchy of the NHL's best,
Starting point is 00:56:13 but very rarely to the best, McKinnon, McDavid, Crosby, give you a flat effort. And I don't think that last night
Starting point is 00:56:24 is a one-off for Matthew. I agree to that. Right? You know what I mean? Like, yep, you're not going to be great every game. But I don't think last night was unique for him. He's probably more Alex McGilney than he is Sidney Crosby, right? Like elite score, but there's some nights off in there. Like elite elite shooting. And I would move God's green earth to have a monarch.
Starting point is 00:56:46 That's right. That's the other thing, right? Because it's like, run this guy out of town. I was like, well, why do you ever going to put it in? I like this. I think you have to have them in the right spot. I don't think where in the sea. it seems like the right thing and you want him to take that leadership role but it doesn't
Starting point is 00:57:00 i don't know that's natural and i don't even give a shit about the but the rest of the guys have to at least be leaders around him not would have to be a figurehead when they take it off of tveras or taveras gives it up or whatever it's like what pawny does it here with jerome and that's okay i don't think you worried about jerome being the leader but here it's maybe this will give austin yeah and maybe behind closed doors it has or maybe it's gone the opposite way where he doesn't like it. It just doesn't. It could be the same.
Starting point is 00:57:29 It's just window dressing. And again, they're not missing signature season from Austin Matthews and that's keeping them out of the playoffs. That goal tending, decor injuries, can't move the puck up, not enough depth scoring,
Starting point is 00:57:44 and they're having down years from the Nealenders and Matthews. And how much of that is linked to losing their best playmaker? Yeah, probably quite a bit. Yeah. Interesting with McDavid, like you say, he'll have a game or two in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Oh, geez, no points. So, man, this guy, what the hell? And then he comes back with nine points in that stage. Okay, fair enough. There it is. McDavid has 95 points in 56 games. Sardine, what's that? 95 points in 56 games.
Starting point is 00:58:12 McKinnon has hit the 40 goal mark. He has 40 goals and 91 points in 54 games. 90-effing five? 95 in 56. He could get to 100 before. by the Olympic break. It's not inconceive. They play the Leafs tonight and then the flames tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Yeah. Like if you get a two and a three point night, go look at the numbers of Bet 365. Like they're not crazy. It's like, oh, plus 600. No, that's pretty standard operating procedure. 12 and a half. McKinnon is plus 44.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Yeah. So he was on pace for about plus 70, plus 60. So it's not scoring them all in the power play game. That's the thing. He's got 40 goals, but 51 helpers. So there's some other guys that are, 500 for a month like that's what is I I don't look at into the Pinder report the abs lost last night two nothing yeah they don't stayer game for Detroit
Starting point is 00:59:04 John Gibson shed a statement game everyone that's the thing everyone's like come Colorado comes down like oh shit target come and I think Colorado's flat right wings lost where nothing to the abs on Saturday or sorry five nothing that's because the abs it's not they are two four and one in their last seven. Do you. Since Landiscaug left, five, six, and two.
Starting point is 00:59:30 That's a long stretch. Five wins out of 13 games. Yeah. I think they're fine. I do too. I think of a shitload of Olympians. Devon Taves came back. He missed 13 games,
Starting point is 00:59:42 so he'll be able to team can. Is it Devon or Devon? Neither are. You know what you're talking about. Yeah. No, I was curious. Devin toes? Is it a rat or Rhett?
Starting point is 00:59:51 There's no A in there. A got it. Yeah. I hear that sometime. Winston. You know what I did last night on the coach? Because that guy beaked me about my Wendell Clark comment. I was watching Wendell Clark.
Starting point is 01:00:05 Yeah, he said. Guy in front of me is Rinald-Clercler jersey. The Wendell Clark was a... So Matthews got a little bit of the business and went down soft. They said Wendell wouldn't go down like that. He's like, you're right. Oh! I'm telling you, that's as hard as you can get hit in a hockey game.
Starting point is 01:00:19 That's running into a brick wall. Get a window. Boom! Oh. Oh. Who is that? Eric Weinner? Craig Mutey.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Oh, Craig. Heads up. Look at him. Just throwing shoulders. And then it's like, who hit me? You know what? We're going to go. Nope.
Starting point is 01:00:40 That's not a good idea. Don't do that. Just take the hit. Pick up your teeth. That was, I don't know, everyone hates the leaves. That team in 93. Oh, they were awesome. Dougie and Wendell and, I mean.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Randichuk. Who's on D? McCowan? Sylvain Lafabe Todd Gill And how big is Wendell Clark He's not 7 510
Starting point is 01:01:11 See little guys They could play back then Beauty Anyway Anyway I did I was like that guy Beaked me about my Wendell Clark
Starting point is 01:01:22 And then I started You took it to heart Hey I didn't take it to heart I was just like Even Rhett has feelings Wow And the thing about those hits
Starting point is 01:01:30 It's not like Wendell Clark Skates away From the collision It's like I felt nothing Oh Wendell Imagine the knights were being like, we were to lockout and he was in Saskatoon and skate with the blades.
Starting point is 01:01:40 And it was like he was at the rink for hours just getting us back to do enough to go and practice. It's nice to reminisce. It is. Final clerk pity. Let's go. Nice to reminisce. We'll get into it in the scoreboard, but I was thinking about you yesterday. When I heard about, uh, uh, so Sam Bennett left the game for Florida.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Injured. Bradmarshan. Injured. Barko's still out. They lost to the Sabres. Sabers are good. We had the Sabers. Josh Stone scored again.
Starting point is 01:02:18 He's good. Did you see Thompson scored again? Did you see the Bobber? Yeah, sometimes you're trying too hard, maybe. We saw that lacrosse thing yesterday where the goalie came out to hit a guy and then fight. I'm not sure what Bobber was doing, but it's way out there. That's the circle. Yep. Well, okay.
Starting point is 01:02:40 Well, he's defending. At least finish from Benson there. Five hole, eh? Bobber. This opens them up and then he slides her home. Yeah, good. The, uh, huh. I wonder what.
Starting point is 01:02:56 The Panthers have lost four straight. I wonder what Paul said. They are 10 back of Buffalo for the first wild card. Nine back of Boston for the second. Not happening. Well, they need, they got to turn it around. for sure. But you said yesterday they're out. Out.
Starting point is 01:03:15 We were looking at the standings. Those five teams are at the top of the Atlantic or the five teams. Ottawa is not. Toronto's not. Three playoff teams last year. Speaking of Florida, we do have news on Sam Bennett. Anthony Sorrelli left last night's game
Starting point is 01:03:31 and he has been named as an Olympic replacement for him. It felt like that was down to the last. A couple. Yeah, Sorrelli got hurt in the outdoor game two nights ago. left. He's out. Bennett, the replacement, but he also left last night. Well, it's obviously not a lot of concern around the bad injury. Yeah, if they're making the assessment. Rested up for the Olympics. Had a boy, Sammy.
Starting point is 01:03:54 So of all the Hugh and cry and the, this is so bullshit. Just take a beat and there you go. Yeah, and there might be more. Might be more. Like there's some guys, points that hasn't practiced, won't play before the Olympics, but still could go. What do you do? Hegel, I think also a good thing.
Starting point is 01:04:12 What do you do? There. Because Pointe ain't saying. No, I can't play. And who's the coach? Coup. Who has interest in how he plays outside of the Olympics? And the other thing is, fellas, you got Conradart sitting right there.
Starting point is 01:04:26 No, I don't think that has anything to do with Conradard. I think it has all it to do with the Tampa Bay Lightning, and Point is not like. I just mean if there's any sort of like, we're unsure. It's like, well, just take the healthy guy. There's eight, I know, but what I'm saying, there's a hundred guys you can choose. The cupboard is full of the guys you can fill with. Is point going to be, Kachuk, four nations last year? Stand on the bench, don't play.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Should not have been in the lineup. God Connors in the rough. Point going to go, yeah, I'm not good enough to go? Or this was my one and only chance to win an Olympic gold medal. It's an Olympic gold medal. It's not, you've already won a Stanley Cups. And it was one of the original group names. And so, like, here's a good question for you.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Let's say, you know, he's not ready for the beginning of the Olympics, but you think he could be healthy for, like, say, the medal. Like, that's a tough spot. The good news is John Cooper knows the medicals. Yes, but is John Cooper going to sell him out? Would you be as, he's your, to your point, if I can bring Bedard in and let point be ready, maybe I win a gold medal, and then I got my lightning team,
Starting point is 01:05:31 which are red fucking hot. Or are you going to piss off points from the route? Yeah. It's a lot there. It's a lot there. Yeah, and I don't think it's the all or nothing thing. I think they're always like all these different permutations. How do we do this?
Starting point is 01:05:45 What's our better option? I don't know. Prack was awesome last. He's the best defenseman we've ever had. All right, let's look at this Rantanin'n and goal. Do you see the Rattan and goal last night? Is this Pinder report stuff or you're just doing the Pender report? What are you worried about?
Starting point is 01:06:03 Just take it off my hands. Somewhere to be, going to take a ship. Sit there, shut up. All the pills. Pute. Blameick. Go right now, Rhett. Just do it.
Starting point is 01:06:17 Who is this defense? Oh, it's our, but it's Luke Shen. Schenner. No, he's going to move. It's not very nice to do. We really kind of took the piss of Bouchard yesterday. Why? What are we going to do?
Starting point is 01:06:30 He got Brock favored, you know? You need us to go and point and laugh at him. Luke Shen's a nice guy. He's a good to ask him. I can't wait to get there. This must play is ready to get there. You're pumped, right? So pumped.
Starting point is 01:06:42 To the stern minus 20 or to the tavernor gonna be that cold there And it's like this here anyway Last night Jets stars Miko Rantman Pretty good player So if he picks up the puck and then gives it one of these I'm around you and then
Starting point is 01:06:59 Well that was the move I wanted to do it I'm around That is that that's the war on range there's the shot though a little better than you did Oh so I'm gonna go one handed here and now I'm oh See in the old days Brian McCabe would have can opener Yeah right onto his keyster but Shander didn't want a penalty. This guy's so good. It is weird.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Like right here, most guys are shooting it right before he goes to the back. I was going to say, because when you watch that in slow motion and you stop it, right? There's a shot. It's like, how is that going in off the other post? He's got it on his forehand. You're like, he's clearly going to...
Starting point is 01:07:35 Right there. Most guys are going to try and chip that. Edges, Dean. You've got to control... Look at his edges. He's on one foot. He's changing direction. He's outside edge there.
Starting point is 01:07:46 He's on one foot, shifting his weight. Outside edge on his right foot. Impressive. I think, I don't want to hijack this. Jason Robertson's time in Dallas, I think, might be coming up here. I don't think they can afford to pay him and Rattan. And, end, end, and, and, and, and, and, and, because everyone else has got extensions there.
Starting point is 01:08:09 White Johnson's, your rope pay henses, your. Robertson God, gold. Number is 31. last night. Yes. And so he's an incredibly valuable player. What's he going to say? Me? You don't have a little chat? Oh, no. I'm just, he's on pace to score another 50. And I think they're like, yeah, we like him with all of them. And we like rant and more. And we think that money that he's going to cost us, we can find something that fits us better. It's crazy as that sounds. You already got Johnston there?
Starting point is 01:08:43 Yeah. And it's dangerous, but again, I think they're looking at being like, what if we brought in Panarin? They're both up at the end of the year, and we pay one of them and not the other. Panarin's quite a bit older, but Robertson does not play with great pace. He was left off the American team for a reason.
Starting point is 01:08:58 I'm not saying it's a great move, but there are enough flies in the ointment in this game, like holes that they're like, ah, we don't know if that's going to work against the fastest team on Earth that should be team Canada with. McKinnon, McDavid, McCarr, etc. Wyatt Johnston scored his 18th power play goal. Holy Scheiza.
Starting point is 01:09:18 The flames of 18 all year? Right? He's got 13. 13 leads the flames. Johnson has 18 power play goals, 29 total. Yeah, the Robertson. RFA. It's been there.
Starting point is 01:09:31 So they kind of have to make their decisions. He's one year away from UFA. It's not like he's walking, but you've got to make your call this summer. Is there a secondary layer to this case that you're building aside from throwing it out there. Give us more.
Starting point is 01:09:44 Well, no, and I'm not trying to say he's coming to Calgary like that. I don't think Calgary's a fit. But why?
Starting point is 01:09:50 It's just odd when you see Rantan in there and you're like, yeah, like that's, I think who everyone thought
Starting point is 01:09:59 Robertson was. Well, and they signed them. This is their guy. Rantan's locked up. Johnson's locked up. And they will balk at the same number for Robertson as Rantin. And even though the production's similar.
Starting point is 01:10:07 Like, he's going to want Kyle Conner money? Like that's 12 plus. that can't afford them. No, he's a six, three, two, 30.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Robertson, big boy, but his is the shot that beats you. I don't want to get him here. Oh, you could, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:26 Well, don't sell yourself short. I don't know what that looks like, what a trade. Like, I don't think Craig should be in the business of trading futures for players yet.
Starting point is 01:10:35 26. So it's quite a bit younger than you think. If you got the next eight years of his career, that would be the end of his prime and some tail off at the end which is fine.
Starting point is 01:10:47 Well, eight years. But I, yeah, it was kind of like the Zegris thing last year where it's like, why don't you go get Zegars? I'm, well,
Starting point is 01:10:53 I don't know that he fits their window to be good because he could come here and be good, but you're still bad and then by the time you're good, it's like, uh,
Starting point is 01:11:00 like Philly hasn't resigned him yet. He might just go. Right? Should have got Zegris because then if you had Zegras and Robertson now we're done. Now we're cooking with Pied. Part of it was Zegris was
Starting point is 01:11:09 you were kind of not pennies on the dollar, but a discount potentially for the player. Eventually it was. For years, they wouldn't and then they didn't get them moved. So they had to eventually say, yeah, okay, you're not getting the first. What an odd thing though if you're Jimmy Nill. Totally. And they're in this window where it's like, 26 year old, when's their window to win a cup? Now. Right now. And if you're, Panarans like, well, it's contingent on an extension.
Starting point is 01:11:35 Rasmus, well, you wanted it to make sure you get, you can't get anyone signed for next year until you sort of what the hell you're doing with Robert. What's cap friendly? What's the cap thing? They are such a good team. They're very, very good. They suck it right defense.
Starting point is 01:11:47 It depends what you think of Ottinger. Like I know Noodle's always been. Oh, what is it? He's on the Olympic team. We saw him at his best. That series against the flames of 22. He was unbelievable. Like 960 shit.
Starting point is 01:12:00 You have that guy in net. Mero Hayskin and Thomas Hartley on the back end. two of the best, two of the finest guys in the league. Yeah, two Olympians. Rantin, Johnston, Robertson, Rupé Hintz, Matt Duches. Yeah. It's against Hurt.
Starting point is 01:12:16 They still got Ben the leader. And in a position to add. So they've got 3.8.2 million cap space. So for next year they'd have more, but you've got to make that jump in Robertson's paycheck just on a one year deal. Never mind if you were going to extend them long term. Robertson's making 7.7.7. he's going to ask for almost double eyes, 12 to 13, I think.
Starting point is 01:12:40 Which I get, he scores 50. Is that the, again, we're kind of really just assuming cap hit, that would be one of the big swings that Conroy would take. Is that the big swings? I don't know the time's right yet. Yeah, I don't either. Because you could, but I just say like, do we even know if per X a core piece or not yet?
Starting point is 01:13:00 You're certainly hoping he is, but no, you don't know. Do you know exactly what Cole Reschney is? God, no, he's playing college. Like, they've got a lot of nice, really good-looking prospects, but they haven't arrived yet. So when they start arriving and they're on entry level, now is your time. Just like Montreal did with Dobson, right?
Starting point is 01:13:16 Once you knew that, okay, here's what Hudson is, here's what Demodov is. We know Suzuki's a leader. Caulfield score in a 10. Now we're going to take two picks in the top 20 and move them for a top four defense. I've been sitting on this for a while. Oh, all of Mexico?
Starting point is 01:13:30 No, well, it's even longer than that. Really? we have these conversations when the building's ready and who you draft and what are you going to do is there's one thing it's not Jason Robertson
Starting point is 01:13:43 it's not Trevor Zegro's not that it's like the number one when Connie tucks himself into bed at night the sun rises and sets with Kale Makar.
Starting point is 01:14:06 That is the Golden Goose, new building. Take your picks, your cap space, move heaven and earth for the Calgary kid who loved the flames growing up and will be a free agent, has won a Stanley Cup. It's, and there's Mission McKenna, but there is no mission greater than Kail Makar. Mission McCar. we'll come up with something better.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Dude, where's McCar? That's the one. Yeah, and it's tough because why? Outbid, everybody. Well, it's not even no bid. Colorado's going to sit him down July 1, 26, a year before he's out and say, here's 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 a year. Are they?
Starting point is 01:14:57 They're cheap bastards, sir. Well, they've been cheap because they know that McCar's coming up. But they've got some money that they've spent and will continue. They're wealthy, but they're cheap. I'll tell you, they will not be surprised and or taken aback by his contractual. But here's the thing. Connie can't control that. Nope.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Those teams are going to do what they do. All you can do is be the sexiest son of a gun that you can be. That's right. Newfound is a string there, your man's diney on and strut around. Yep. Get yourself all waxed up there, Connie and trim and proper. Get a nice new suit. Nails are done.
Starting point is 01:15:31 Or dye some of that gray. That's your hair did. That's the one. You're drunk, hey? No, I'm serious. It's a great idea. It's just a never- I'm a...
Starting point is 01:15:40 Calgary guy. So basically what you're saying is what Leifes fans have been saying for five years about McDavid? Yes. Got it. Eberley? Everley?
Starting point is 01:15:52 Well, these guys, there's Calgary guys. No, no, no, no, no. We're talking about Superstar. Superstar. Prime. You're drunk. I thought drunk. You're drunk.
Starting point is 01:16:02 You don't want Kail McCarr? I want you. Of course you want him. It's just like I can want Cindy Crawford. It doesn't mean I'm getting Cindy Crawford. She liked me once. Really? Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:16:11 I've got to hear that story. Let's go for a drink. Carl Crawford. It was in my neurolinks. Playing for the Marlins. That was Corey Crawford. Of course. You want him.
Starting point is 01:16:23 Everyone should want him. You know what? Yes. You know what? That's brilliant. I believe. I believe. Do you have inside track?
Starting point is 01:16:30 Have you been talked to people? I think he would like to play here. I also think it's tough to leave the spot he's in. because it's tough again those things you can't control all you can control is the case that you bill that's why come on farcus get this city going let's go let's go we already bought the billionaire a new rink what else you need him to do the freaking fucking parkis that's that rolls off the time friggin ninchy yeah yeah no i think there'd be an appetite i don't think it's again is it is it a swing yeah it's take shot but
Starting point is 01:17:05 And who's your prohibitive favorite to win a cup this year? Abs. Good. Win another cup. Now you go. Win another one. Perfect. Don't need to stick around here, done it.
Starting point is 01:17:15 That's how it works. I'm trying to think of an example of a superstar on a team winning cups that does decide to leave when that team is still in their competitive window. To come to Calgary. Oh, just anywhere. Like hometown, sure. Because there's guys that want to play places. And I get that. And there's guys that are superstars and leave.
Starting point is 01:17:34 but to see a superstar leave Jonathan Taves He didn't go anywhere else Their window was closed It was well closed It would be like Taves leaving After the second cup That's what you're asking for
Starting point is 01:17:47 He stayed for three But he had the long-term deal And I'm telling you That's what the abs are trying to get with Kail No but he wasn't in that spot Anyway When they were in right in the thick of all that They had four or five years left
Starting point is 01:18:01 In their hands room Can't we have nice things here? Love nice things Huh? Have some nice things. Yeah. Got a new rank. Look, I love that idea.
Starting point is 01:18:10 New pipe. Water pipe. Like, I'll ask you, what's the probability? Out of 100. Or scale of 1 to 10. Jackometer style. How confident are you that could happen? Five is like 50, 50,
Starting point is 01:18:23 10 is it's got to happen. Zero is no chance in all. Pick a number. Because we all love the dream. We do. 10% chance. I feel like, for what, whatever reason.
Starting point is 01:18:36 I feel like this one, because, yeah, got an inkling? I do. You got an inkling? Ordinary, I'd be just, oh, yeah, that's nice. Yeah, we'll talk to continue. We're not going to Calvary.
Starting point is 01:18:45 I do think there is a, there's an intriguing side to the, to the player about being a Calvary flame. I think you would like to be a flame at some point in his life. I agree with that. That's what I'm glad to believe. Give us a number out of 10. That's what you do to us, remember.
Starting point is 01:18:59 50-50s, like, that's pretty good. Oh, hell, hell yeah. 50-50, like, you've really. really got the guy thinking. Now hedge of tails could determine this whole thing. That's real good. That's why this is on Conroy. You're right. Don't drop the ball, Connie. Don't get me wrong. I got con evidence,
Starting point is 01:19:14 but that I'll go a smidge lower. I'll go sorry. Sorry, do you say further thoroughly? Yeah. Oh, okay. So it's three and a half. I'm going to stick to that until further notice. I speak waffle ease.
Starting point is 01:19:32 That's a three and a half. Am I right, Dean, or am I right? God, it's time for that. That's so much to talk about it. I'm so much. I didn't eat yesterday. Yeah, I haven't eaten yet today either. Everybody just don't eat today.
Starting point is 01:19:53 Brought to my village Honda Hills. The winter ready SUV event is on now. Check their inventory at villagehonda.com. The prelude is in. Get up to the North West Auto Mall. And the prelude is in. The prelude is on site. Rets, hot chicks in high school.
Starting point is 01:20:09 Take out. The prelude is out. Rose. Go for a curse. Let's cruise. She back. Yeah, loves you.
Starting point is 01:20:15 Did you elaborate in this story? We talked about a while. She's been gone a lot lately. Cindy Crawford? No,
Starting point is 01:20:22 Rhett said the prelude. It was always the hot chicken high school. Oh, no, I know that, but you, I mean,
Starting point is 01:20:27 you just threw out one of the world's most famous Super Bowl. And you just threw one of the world's most famous hockey defenseman
Starting point is 01:20:31 ever. That was the whole point. It's like, we could all dream about Cindy Crawford and Camacar. But were you here when he said,
Starting point is 01:20:39 she liked me. Yeah, and then he blamed that's what, I don't know if he was. I twitched out. Like, were you ever in the same room? No.
Starting point is 01:20:48 Have you ever communicated with her? No, it was mine. Yeah, see, there you go. It's not me some false. You're going to be careful. You got to be able to decipher that. Can you throw it back to Ryan? Back to you, Ryan.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Thank you, rat, villageada.com, your dealership for life. Go get a preload. Go get a prelude. We'll tell you about the window ready SUVs later. Don't worry about that. Let's go. Flames Nation, what's going on? Lots of flash is winning in Pike.
Starting point is 01:21:11 The old wrench is in there telling you know, Yeah, they lost the Leafs last night. It was actually a really good night for the tank. They worked hard. They made some nice place. You saw some young kids and some big minutes. And it was pretty much good toll and empty netter from Bobby McMahon. Ended this thing.
Starting point is 01:21:27 Ripped it at 4 to 2. He could really scoop down the ice there, old Bobby. Yeah. Zane Preck was a man of interest last night. His first game since early November back when this team really, really sucked, not like fourth on the bottom. Sox, wait to that later. I have no idea what that.
Starting point is 01:21:43 20 minutes a nice time, a season high. One block shot, no points. The expected goal is not great, but what I was impressed to us, he flashed the skills that flashed Stevens? No, he flashed the skills that you hope will make him an elite player in this league. You could see there are some special attributes out there. Lots of ice on late, ran power play.
Starting point is 01:22:03 One at one point. There's Bobby Germany, perfect tank game. Lots of excitement. Boys come up short. That is a perfect tank game. Zane Prech's best game of the season. Decision making a lot quicker. more urgency. Thank you, Bobby.
Starting point is 01:22:16 Good. Appreciate Bob. Preish. Brish. Wrangler's trade. If I told you the Flames and Stars made a deal, you get all excited. Blake Coleman's from Plano and this and that. Well, it's Jeremy Porreier for Gavin White,
Starting point is 01:22:32 23-year-old defenseman swap. Do you have any more on it? Because I do have a question. Just real quick, Porre, left shot, needs waivers. He goes to Dallas. hasn't been the same since an arm slice really for his year, two years ago, too bad. He was on track for a call up and White does not yet need waivers and there's a right shot, D, where they actually do have a dearth of the HL level as opposed to the NHL level where they have five
Starting point is 01:22:55 redies. Back to you, D. No, it, yeah, for Poria, tough, he was, like you said, was right on the cusp of coming up and had a arm injury. Nasty. So, because this is, this is an HL deal. Yes. So is this, um, Brad Pascal talking to the Dallas AGM or is this Conroy Jim Nill? Like, is there, I did, I think, I thought about that as well. Like, if you were working on a bigger deal and you'd had chats about Rasmus and maybe you're having chats about Nazim or Blake or Zach White Cloud.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Yeah. You're going to mention other pieces to try to even out deals. Yeah. And you say, hey, we got a glut of this. You got a glut of that. Let's add this to the deal. Yeah. Maybe we even it out.
Starting point is 01:23:40 You give us a second. We'll give that. And maybe it's just like, you know what? Let's just do this thing right now. Let's do this before the Olympic break because then they can go and play. They're in the middle of the deal later. I did think about that. I have no way to tell you if that's the case or not, but I thought about it as well.
Starting point is 01:23:55 Friends of trade deadline tomorrow? There is a roster freeze from Wednesday at 9.59 p.m. Mountain. A minute before midnight eastern. Sneeze check. All the way through till I think the 22nd. Oh, look who's sick now. 3 p.m. Eastern Wednesday. No trades permitted until 11.59 p.m. Eastern Feb 22.
Starting point is 01:24:22 Sorry, I got the times wrong. 22nd is your midnight eastern deadline. So if anything's happening, it's the next, you know. She's happening quick. The next 30 hours or so. Yeah, I could fast for that. Did you fart when you sneezed? Because, okay, we'll just keep moving.
Starting point is 01:24:41 Oilers are up next. So, do you? I just smelled so. That's all. Not purposefully. No. But it has been known to happen. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:50 Maybe you got around a bunch of muscle relaxants and things just. Well, yeah. Who knows? I mean, the lower back's awfully close to the shoot. Maybe you took a handful of pills out of your pocket and you didn't have anything. You can't be so relaxed right here, but then all of a sudden. Aye, aye, Captain. No, you probably sleep on the watch, the night watch there.
Starting point is 01:25:10 Sunday there. I'm not sure us have that. Did he sneeze? Oilers and Flames tomorrow night, the final game for the Calgary Flames and Ebiton Oilers. There's always in action tonight against the Leafs. There it is. The final Battle of Alberta of the season, Flames have two wins, one via the gift from the old skin flute on night one of the season.
Starting point is 01:25:37 And they split the set around Christmas. Which you and you cost the Flay. You wonder why the Tankathon is doing. what it's doing there's plenty of you made the deal with the devil i'll take it back i'm going to take that back i want them to lose tomorrow you can't down no take it's too late sorry taking it back i buckle up for an exciting three weeks gentlemen beyond wednesday uh hoof whoof that's a hey you forgot to populate the calendar uh no there's just no games for three weeks why there's there's games get your pie recipes in
Starting point is 01:26:17 Get your gravy talk going. Guys might be doing some pickleball at the resort that they're at. Tell us about your gout conspiracy fixes. We'll open phone. Phones. We'll do something. We'll talk about we're going to Malian. We'll talk about it.
Starting point is 01:26:34 Get your passports ready. Doing a trip. I'm in. Looking good. Found this Kulalarin B. D. Italy. Is that where it is?
Starting point is 01:26:47 Vitali. Milano Cortina. It's in the Alps, Dean. Come on, Dean. Get your shit together. Here's your over under for, you can find this on Bet365. Every team, they basically said over or under,
Starting point is 01:26:58 you can wager on it. Flames currently sitting at 75 and a half that is tied from third from the worst. Thank you. Canucks at 65.5. The lowest. Blues at 74 and a half. And then the Hawks and Flames.
Starting point is 01:27:19 tied for third from the bottom with 75.5. That's bad. That's how you get high picks. It's kind of how it works. Bottom 10. There it is. There she blows. Flames up a slot with the loss last night.
Starting point is 01:27:33 We're down. Up a down or up a... You know, it's a bizarre world, right? What's up is down? What's good as bad? What's their winning for size? 455. 65. Make it in?
Starting point is 01:27:47 Cabo wobbo. know how many games played. We told you there was 27 games left. They played. They played 55. I played that 55 times in a row on Afterburner one thing. So I was sure I took it. How did you keep track?
Starting point is 01:28:04 You count it. Am I at one? Two. Boomers get a math. Who knows? Although I think I did lose track. You have 85 is a lot. There's no way you made it to 55.
Starting point is 01:28:14 I think I put a couple extra in just to be safe. It's almost a full minute. Now here's the standing through like, let's say, 55 games. and we don't know what's going to happen in the final 27, but the folks of the athletic have a lovely model that projects how things are going to go. They run like 10,000 simulations. And this is great. Look at this.
Starting point is 01:28:33 13% chance at first overall. 83% they pick in the top five. So does that include strength of schedule? It certainly would. Now, what it doesn't include is trades that teams might make. It does include the schedule, I guess. But this is okay. 10,000 simulations of the remainder of the schedule.
Starting point is 01:28:52 Why is Seattle so? They don't like that roster as much as the standings do. What are the standings to show you there? They're closer to a wild card than the bottom. And the league standings are retro? So what you're talking about? So what they're seeing here is the Jets are going to get on a bit of a roller here and then Rangers Black, West Blues will see.
Starting point is 01:29:08 Jesus Christ. I'm cracking her way up there. J. Yeah. What the hell? Model doesn't like them. Models like Rhett. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:17 That's what I've heard. Cindy Crawford likes an Errolink. Or a Rhett Lake Cindy. We'll never know which one that is. Keep moving. Both can be true. Finals from last night. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:29:26 A lot of action here. I have notes. I don't want to jump around too much, so let's go chronologically, Dean. Bruin, or sorry, Buffalo Sabres, another win over Florida. You talked about the injury. Sabers won six of seven. I saw this, and it made me wonder, because you were a saber. For Alex Lyon, who made 38 saves.
Starting point is 01:29:45 X X. 11 wins in his last 12 starts. Wow. He's won eight. straight road wins. It's eight straight road wins. Longest run ever by a Sabres goalie. Clint Milarchuk? Like, Hashek never won.
Starting point is 01:29:58 You say it is the longest? Yeah. Alex Lyon now has... We had him at I believe. Dom didn't play on the road. Right. He just stayed home. Where's Dom? I don't know. The playoffs start tonight. Toronto. Where's Dom? Was that round two?
Starting point is 01:30:14 Oh. Josh Stone's 17 goals. Jeez. Tage 29? 29. You're good. Sends get a big win. And Florida, sorry, Florida's sunk. Reeling.
Starting point is 01:30:27 Reeling in a big way. Reeling. Yeah. They should sell. They got it until March 6th, figure it out. Who are they going to sell? Ghostbusters. If they just do the...
Starting point is 01:30:39 That's who you're going to call. Oh, who are you going to sell? Just do the one year, boys. Yes. We're taking a beat. We've been to three straight cup finals. We've got some rings. Enjoy it.
Starting point is 01:30:49 Back in. in September. September, Barkoff will be back. We'll be ready to frigging go. I'd have to look at their lineup. There'd be guys. Obrowski's the guy, right?
Starting point is 01:30:57 He's... Is you? Yeah. You could trade him and come back there and sign. That'd be nasty. Trade him to the Oilers? Don't, do you know, not Evanton. Shush.
Starting point is 01:31:07 Brett. How many ideas up there? You know, they watch. Ottawa beats Pittsburgh three to two. Do you know? Oh, Jeff. Sorry. Stand the man.
Starting point is 01:31:15 Six game wins straight games. Only six in a row, yeah. What are they going to do, at the deadline. I'm going to move out. I said Roberts. Robo would be a good fit there. Yeah, but what do you get rid of
Starting point is 01:31:27 to get Robo? Do you have browsers in the first? Do you know, sure. If it's browsers and the first. Do they have any like it'd be Kindle, right? No, no, no. They had three first last year.
Starting point is 01:31:39 They're not moving this guy. I don't. But move your future first. I move a future first. What does Dallas want for this guy? Do they want like not browsers in it first? Exactly.
Starting point is 01:31:49 Yeah, the first is going to win. They're trying to win. They might be a summer move with Robo. It would make more sense, wouldn't it? Islanders fall to the Capitals, 4 to 1. Caps, third straight win for 1 and 1 in their last 6. Ovi point number 1670. Just.
Starting point is 01:32:08 To pass Wayne for fifth most points with a single franchise. Jeez. 1670. That's a gross number. That's a lot of points. Quinn Hughes continues his assault on. the record books in Minnesota. They win four, three in overtime.
Starting point is 01:32:23 Yeah, but who's he assaulting? I'm not taking a bigger way. Like, who, I have me a dumb? Here's the stat I'll give you. And I sent it to Jack. It's later in the Pinned Report, Quinn Hughes note, I think it's number 11. Quinn Hughes and Ryan Souter are now tied for the franchise lead.
Starting point is 01:32:40 He's been there for like two months. What? Three assist games. He's got five of them already. It's been a great fit. He's a mega stud. and he's starting to click with their best players, the boldies,
Starting point is 01:32:51 Caprizov, the Corrello's. Four in a row, 501 in their last six. Who's the nine game point streak has 16 points in the nine games. Caprizov's as lethal shooters or is in the game. Blues were up 5-1.
Starting point is 01:33:05 Worst lead hockey, boys. Saw it at the outdoor game two nights ago. Anytime you're up 5-1, you may as well to make it to end over the two points. Extra time. I know. That would have been a great overtime for the tank. God damn it, Blues.
Starting point is 01:33:17 Blues have lost seven of eight. Oh, They're so good at this. The flames literally have one win in their last seven, and they're losing ground to these jerks. Stammer, two goals, and the third passes Dino Cicerelli for 20th all time. 609 goals. Six minute abs.
Starting point is 01:33:32 Six minute abs. Blackhawk, six three, win over the sharks. They have been just in. Winless in their previous five. Ryan Donato, four points. McKay of four points. Sharks now winless in three. Come on, Macklin.
Starting point is 01:33:46 Get her going, bud. Go on an assist. Maybe it's not his fault. Mike Greer, go get a guy. Go get Panarin. Sol this thing. Let's just stab at it. Where's the standings?
Starting point is 01:33:55 We'll get the standings in moment. Okay, sorry. Jets, losing overtime. In Dallas, we showed you the ranting goal. That's the chance of trying so hard the schedules is but a nightmare for them. The jets are, to look up as another contender. They're just not going to.
Starting point is 01:34:10 They're just not going to. Nice. The perfect storm. The jets are, they're not getting, it's not going to let us. Stars five in a row, six. the seven. John Gibson shut out the abs, shuts out the abs. You noted the abs under 500, their last 13.
Starting point is 01:34:24 Yeah, it's, uh, 5, 62. 2, 4 and one of the last seven. They've been, uh, not great since Landis Cog left, but yeah, Detroit. John Gibson, that is one of the stories of the season for sure. Both their goal has been good. He's been dino mite. Canucks, they, we, uh, went right back to the well. They won, uh, last week once, but they don't do it often. No. The youths pumped them. Six-two mammoth over, uh,
Starting point is 01:34:47 abs in Utah. Have you seen the crowd there these days? No. It's unreal. If you catch a high, oh yeah, 7-1 and one in their last nine at home, they've got it. They're pumping at home. Something going on there. And they want, they want playoffs. Again, it's, it's early there. The owner is talking about winning. You know, they're doing all the things off the ice right. But if there is a team that might pay a little extra to get something, a big splash down at the deadline, I think Utah's in that category. You already patooed any kind of a tijigan thing. So we can't even talk about that. You put, cold water on that thing.
Starting point is 01:35:19 With the flames? We brought it up. Well, we talked about the flame side of it, not the Utah thing. Yeah, but I've just, if Utah's going to add, what are the, oh, yeah, tons of prospects and picks. And, yeah, some sort of blue team, be it a red team at the bottom, right? We talked about that one a fair amount. Boo.
Starting point is 01:35:33 Let's keep moving. I mean, yeah. Sure. Yeah, up is down. Whatever. That is good. Yeah, is boo. Bolt's injuries.
Starting point is 01:35:41 This is not good for Team Canada, nor the red hot Tampa Bay Lightning, who I believe, are 17-1-1-1-11. for team carry. Yeah, print points. Not great news. Anthony Sorrelli, you could tell me there's better fits. Sure.
Starting point is 01:35:54 I like big checking center, but Sam Bennett can do that too. Still hope they can play in Milan though, although now today we get the news that Bennett's replacing Sorrelli. So Sorrelli done, not good. That was the Sunday outdoor game.
Starting point is 01:36:10 You think Chris Johnson would be on this? Well, this is yesterday's tweet, and then Jack updated it earlier today with the latest. So probably could have gassed it. So this is day old news. And speaking of the day old news, you're ready to farm some clips? You want to get some engagements going here? Guys, did you know that Connor McDavid, the hockey player,
Starting point is 01:36:30 had a thing where he said he wrote a thing and they put it on the internet? It probably wasn't him that wrote it, but it was basically stuff he said to a guy that's an actual writer. Then they posted that and then people will take quotes out of it and we can react and get a bunch of clicks on our YouTube channel. What did you just say? Connor. I'm 11 years into my career.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Of course I think about my legacy. I want to be remembered as a winner, but just not anywhere here in Edmonton. To be in this city during a cup run, to feel that buzz, it just wouldn't be the same somewhere else, signed Connor McDavid's public relation. No,
Starting point is 01:37:02 just Connor, sorry. I know it's hard for Ryan. It's hard for him to see that. Nothing says I want to stay in Emmett to forever. Like Saturday would get a three-year deal. I don't bring that up. Jack says we had to do it.
Starting point is 01:37:16 Boss. It's just, it's the best. Well, Jack said, boom, boom, you had to have, Jack. you can ask Jack how this is up don't talk about the Oilers he's got 97,000 points this year
Starting point is 01:37:29 God it's depressing there you can see him tomorrow night too I gotta go to that one this was not on my Pinda report list but Jackson's we should probably hit this that's big news yesterday everyone was it all the Oilers hogs some ghostwriter goes on all the oiler losers
Starting point is 01:37:44 were excited that Connor said he wants to win it weird I thought he'd say he'd want to win somewhere else when he was under contract from the oilers. I signed for cheap so that they could trade me. Odd to want to win on the team. I remember when we were talking about that three, four months ago?
Starting point is 01:38:00 Yeah. Man, that was more excited. Can you give me a goddamn it. Yeah, we can do that, sure. God damn. It's really turned up there, the cultural capital. Still one three in a row this year, I don't think. The hell's going on in Nashville?
Starting point is 01:38:15 Yeah. It's weird. You tanking. You're trying to talk to today. He said, what the hell's going on in Nashville? How's going on in national? Exactly what he said. So this is yesterday.
Starting point is 01:38:25 Okay, we get it. Preds announced Barry Trots will retire once the successor is found. Yeah, yeah, that's an agency that represents players and coaches. They're going to do the search. So why let the Preds look for their next GM if they're going to help them? New owner, I guess. Okay. This is later Greg Wyshinsky, Puck Daddy.
Starting point is 01:38:47 Predators owner, Bill Haslam, new owner, guys, says that Barry Trots is the general manager, he's in charge of the trade deadline. Another layer. Moron. This is Jay Fresh, one of my favorite stats, guys. Trots was in an awkward spot joining the team with three mid to late prime franchise players, Forsbrook 29, Yosy 33, Saras 28, and a mid set of prospects. Cautionary tale about building through UFA.
Starting point is 01:39:14 RET saw it first. I don't know. Where we have a truck? I just thought that they brought in a, good coach and he got him to play well and then they chased it didn't have to go bring those guys yeah and then what he's referring to is chasing via ufa yeah yeah yeah yeah he got absolutely he was being given the GM of the year when he did it i'm not always be wary of the people that were the widely regarded GM win be weary everyone thought the flames soaked weary or
Starting point is 01:39:51 Very. Both. The Panthers in that. There's not a mess. He's in a grass. Getting tight. Stamcoast has 27 goals this year. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:00 I mean, it's ours was nine. Ew. How many? Uh, nine. Wow, he doesn't like the snow. Are you wary or weary of pressing that?
Starting point is 01:40:11 Wary. Not weary? Uh, yeah, I don't know. Shit. Feel for Trotsy. That's clearly the owner. What's the good.
Starting point is 01:40:20 You get to, you take over his GM. You want to make a splash. Team kind of was playing well. You get some free agents that will come to Nashville. That's not always the case. Money to spend. We've got this young group that made the playoffs.
Starting point is 01:40:32 We're not a cap team. We're at cap space. We got money to bring these guys in. What the hell? Didn't work. Didn't work. I worked this year. Did we see this?
Starting point is 01:40:43 Did we see this happen? Saw what happened in Buffalo when you fire the GM. Yeah. Should have done that. Halfass. Vote of Confidence stuff. Tonight's games. Let's play the game.
Starting point is 01:40:52 of tonight's games. Oh, Columbus, New Jersey. Oh, tricky. Damon Severson. Wow. Just thought of that. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:41:10 Jack, can you verify that? Keith Jones played for the campus. How about you want to bet? Zero. Put your money where your mouth is. Nope, I'm afraid. I'm a huge coward, and you're right. Senators, Keynes.
Starting point is 01:41:20 Oh, boy. That's going to be tough. Hamannick, did he ever play in Carolina? No, goalie. Oh, sallow. Huh? Tommy sallow, a senator? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Artist Irby, Irby meant. Urby was a cane for sure. I don't think he was a senator. Is he not a senator? Tommy Soderstrom. Help me out here. Who was wearing the cage? He was a flyer.
Starting point is 01:41:46 Pass. Next. Sabers, Lightning. Dave Anderchuk. Excellent. Nice. Brian Trudges. Islanders, done.
Starting point is 01:41:55 Brian, Trotry. Leafs, Oilers, Zach Hyman. Craig Simpson. Seattle's and the Ducks. A leaf. Seattle's not. Seattle's and the Ducks. Crockett are so young, eh?
Starting point is 01:42:13 It's how do you? You got to think about that expansion around. It's almost unfair for this game. It's got to be someone, doesn't it? It has to be one, at least one, probably two. Oh, no, it was Buffalo. You're right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:29 Shit. Which one? Keith Jones? Or Craig Simpson? Craig Simpson. What's worse? That you were wrong or that I was right? Which hurts?
Starting point is 01:42:40 It's both. Yeah, damn it. Seattle Ducks, stay focused here. You stay focused. It's a Pinder report. Seattle's a lot of, because it's not even to relocate. Like, you can say, well, can we go back to Phoenix for the chest. You can't even.
Starting point is 01:42:52 What are you going to do there? take someone in that stupid expansion route. Who did they test? It is the test. Everley? No. Who is it? Some duster.
Starting point is 01:43:03 Yeah. Some plug D or something. Some sort of West Coast Bill Borgon. Yes. Yeah. That was Buffalo. I know. Crap.
Starting point is 01:43:13 We passed on Senators Cains. We did. Did Jeff Sanderson play in Ottawa? Noah's Sun plays there. he never played in Carolina either Sanderson? Well, Hartford. Oh, sorry, yeah. Same franchise.
Starting point is 01:43:34 We do allow that, right? Yeah, you're right. This is, yeah, Frenchos history. Who? Ba-ba-ba. No. I'm cheating now. Are you?
Starting point is 01:43:49 Yeah. I don't mind. Chandler Stevenson. That bottom one is going to be real hard. Yeah, Jack, you got a good. Oh, the bottom one, very good. Just because we're just, Brandon Montprenson. Oh, I'm on tour.
Starting point is 01:44:00 Yes. Excellent. Very good one. That's a very good one. I would like to not have help on, like the Sends have been around long enough. Yeah, we should forget this. Degg? Can you have Carolina? Bunk? Redden?
Starting point is 01:44:14 Commodore. Chara? Come on, guys. Guys. Come on guys. Last one. Yeah, chat. Help us in the chat.
Starting point is 01:44:29 Sends cans. And I don't want it to be fringy. I get that out of there. No, we're doing it. Ray Amory. Do you lack? No. No.

Starting point is 01:44:51 But you're going to cheat. Well, I, at least it's. Yes, chat, no. But I want it to be more of it because these are two older teams. Yeah, we should be doing better. I think I nailed it on one of those goal. It is confused them all. Irbe for Soderstrom, for.
Starting point is 01:45:01 for. No, you didn't. Salo. One of those guys played both teams, I swear. Jack, just yellowed. Was it Irme? Both? Did Irby not play this? Is anyone getting it, Jack? I don't know the answers. You're not on the chat? There's no. Well, they're just saying names. I don't know if they're right. Oh.
Starting point is 01:45:17 That's a good point. Nelson Emerson played for both. Yeah. There should be one that makes us be like, yes. I agree. Derek Stepon. No. Yep.
Starting point is 01:45:31 It doesn't make us feel good. Curtis Luschishin. Yeah, decision. That's a decent. Do we feel all right about that? I love it. They call him kid. His nickname's kid.
Starting point is 01:45:39 He's awesome. Third overall, Sasastein Blades. taught me a lot about fitness. Did he? Yeah. Good stuff. He was fit and I wasn't.
Starting point is 01:45:54 Patrick Eve. Joe Corvo. Oh, Patrick E's my boy. Corvo? Joe Corvo's all right. I guess. Joe Corvo's good. All right.
Starting point is 01:46:03 Next. Ryan back to you. We're getting really into this game, aren't we? Really disappointed. Yeah, that was not our best today, boys. Jesus. Random on tour, eh? We should have got that.
Starting point is 01:46:14 Are you excited about the Sabres, boys? Because all of a sudden, I was on 365 this morning, and look at this. Oh. To be, get to the first round and no further. Not even even money. Missed playoffs plus 320. Second round plus 350. Conference finals plus 12-odd, runner up the cup 25 to want to win the damn
Starting point is 01:46:34 thing 40 to 1. Well, Buffalo can't win, but they might get runner out. Mm-hmm. Let's go Sabers. Getting excited. One final hockey note. There's your trade freeze. Wednesday. One PMM. Melton.
Starting point is 01:46:53 There it is. Job, Pierre. Finally, the AI is getting good. Dead guys, the used to host game shows. They're now talking to managers of NFL football teams. Have a look. You both have just won a trip to Cancun.

Starting point is 01:47:42 You said it first. Also, we are going to get another blast of winter at some point. I don't know when, but we are. It's Feb, guys. Don't get cocky. It's Calgary. You need that winter ready SUV. 4x4s, all-wheel drives, village honor.com for the inventory.
Starting point is 01:47:57 Check out the lot. Northwest Outtaudan-day's only high plus six. Chances of snow. We got to get these ODRs. Overnight lows. What are we doing for the Super Bowl? Never heard of it. Dean's still looking for guys.
Starting point is 01:48:10 There has to be one that's like, oh. What hell is wrong with Joe Corvo? It's okay. Yeah. You want one that just feels good. So we're going to spend the rest of the day. Yes, we are. I'm out of here.
Starting point is 01:48:21 Okay, well, see tomorrow. Where do you got to be? Food. Aside from down the hall after taking all those pills in an empty stomach. No, I had a question, but I can't remember what it was. This is boring for people, though. I get the list right here. We're in great shape here.
Starting point is 01:48:38 Ron Hainesie, Justin Williams, Danny Heatley. Is Heatley there? Justin Williams was a senator? Justin Williams. A senator? Apparently. No. Are you using AI?
Starting point is 01:48:52 Yeah, AI is. You can't use AI? Okay, so that was just a quick first thing that popped up. Here we go. Telling you guys. You have to do the hard research like Dean here. It's like to stall out for the poor list. That's right.
Starting point is 01:49:05 It's just dead air. Drag this from on. God damn it No are we doing anything for Super Bowl Jack I've got no plans Well we should make plans I love Super Bowl You and Rhett live stream for me That sounds great

Starting point is 01:50:15 You also told us we were gonna have to work You gotta pick a lane here Which one is it? Well AI you can't do Jack How is the show today? Great show really We have picks
Starting point is 01:50:32 Bet 365 picks Yeah we got we got best One of picks I'm just gonna take this right to the end to these two losers. Sean Hill Brassel was a king
Starting point is 01:50:44 not a cane. Anton Forrestberg. Let's see those Kevin Deneen. Derry Cohen. It's a horrible corporation. What are you doing? You bet this if
Starting point is 01:50:55 oh yeah, that 365. Game props, player, prox, sodals and the money line. Whatever your bet it is. It's never ordinary at Bet 365.
Starting point is 01:51:04 Boys were cooking a monster parlay. Look at this up in Edmonton. Leafs. A little bit lazy, little bit tired, a little bit unfit. I don't like the first one. You know, Connor gets fired up to play his old doll. I grew up in Toronto.
Starting point is 01:51:20 Mr. Leaves' pajamas, huh? I love this game. Let's hit everything. Three shots, Matthews, three shots McDavid, three shots trisaddle, three shots, Bush, Bobbs, three shots, Hyman, three shots William Dielder, plus 12. Great game hunting.
Starting point is 01:51:38 And we like the sabers because we love the sabers. Lightning, dinged up, coming off that high of the outdoor game. Back to back for Buffalo, this is a good test. Hey, you young punks, you think you're tough? Yeah, we do. Hey, we'll find out tonight. Punks? And Kutjaro's like, I feel fine.
Starting point is 01:51:54 I'm going to get five tonight. Stikers right to wear the same suit. Kenders Tup. Fasselovsky. Bring cigars. Download the app, get the game. It's never an ordinary. Bet, 365.
Starting point is 01:52:05 Must be 19 or older. 1250. Correct. Overset at six and a half in that game. Over under. And it's like you'll lay a lot of money for the over. People have to be high scoring. Toronto,
Starting point is 01:52:22 Evanton. Well, they don't excel at defense. No, no. So probably it'll be too. Brock Faber's not going to be in that game. So maybe Bush will be. Stout defense. Bush will play Neelander differently than favor.
Starting point is 01:52:40 Anyway. Same same. It's out. Hard to say. We end the show today with a little bit of the super chat action. It's all because of you people. You put a comment into the YouTube as we're live. We take the money and get it to the U-Sin-Satica.
Starting point is 01:52:55 And then it's kind of a get-and-take. We take your comment. React to it on the show. Two goals equals $20. Handsome Dan, vacation rentals, $10 for every flame's goal this year. Jack, I was looking forward to the book review. What happened?
Starting point is 01:53:10 You can't promise things and then not do that. We have the book review. you can do the book review I've been letting a lot of people down like at work or in life well how have you let rep down aside from the book there's a lot of things
Starting point is 01:53:26 I'll read some lasagna yeah pizza yeah you own pizza and lasagna it's tough you know what then I've got a we've got the break coming up oh yeah three week break hit the hills it's a book and you and weger

Starting point is 01:53:50 Okay. Gotcha. Can I come? I can breathe there. Sure. Where are you going? What are you doing? What are you doing?
Starting point is 01:53:55 We're going to go to the mountains. Going to Toronto? Oh. Is it Family Day weekend this weekend? It's the one after. Yeah. You got to get some mountains, don't you? Mountains?
Starting point is 01:54:10 South of the mountains. Anyway. Thank you, handsome, Dan. RBX-V-5-6-9-9-9-9. Rhett as a solid shutdown D-Man. What are your thoughts on Machelli's goal? If Perak made the mistake Weiger did, he'd be scratched Wednesday wee biggle. Which goal is that?
Starting point is 01:54:29 That's one where he's wide open below the hash. Everyone read that Frost was going to get the puck so they jumped to get open for him and it got turned over. The free stream is a real tough look. Oh, yeah. But it's you nailed to you. I did that in game six against Pittsburgh Penguins. Mario. Yeah, to me it's more honest in game seven.
Starting point is 01:54:46 Frost, we got it, we're good, we're good, great, grand, what? Frost turns that buck over. Why isn't he and shit? Oh, that's in our net. Because it's not a Frost Biggle, it's a wee biggle. That's right. Yeah, R&B is on a mission here. RB's been on a mission all year.
Starting point is 01:55:00 All last night. All last night. I think like five super chess. And look, it's just feeding the kids. It's the worst year of McKenzie Wigger's, worst year of his career. I can't imagine. Not having fun, no. Is it okay?
Starting point is 01:55:17 My partner has gone there. Slide into me. I'll be perfect. Oh, dear. Just kind of reverse here. I'll all right. Shoot. I thought Machelli really put it home.
Starting point is 01:55:28 Great shot. It's on the goalie. Golly's got to make some saves for you. Wouldn't hurt earn that dough. Ow. Oh. Can you give us? I can't beat that one.
Starting point is 01:55:37 Come on. Oh, Bill Holman. Oh, Billy. For a na-na-na-na-na. Perak was cooking at the end of the game with his passing and skating, specifically his sea cuts Mohawk turns and transitions with speed Those are things
Starting point is 01:55:56 people say when they want to sound knowledgeable I was impressed with the ocean C cuts those lake cuts The sea cuts Rivers and stream Like the letter Mohaw's turn So you ever have a mohawk?
Starting point is 01:56:11 I tried not to My hair Oh yeah I like that Chris Simon made us all the sigh is scary. Sy and McGratton. Two all-time Mohawks. And maybe two of the most intimidating people
Starting point is 01:56:25 ever. Like spooky. A lot of times you'd look at some skinny punk rock band guy. He's nervous here. But other guys do it. It's like, Oh.
Starting point is 01:56:37 If you kill me, you'll go to jail. That's all the defense I have. My only hope is that there are authorities that can solve this crime of how you don't want to go to jail. Because you can and ease. would if you wanted to. It would not be a problem for you if you wanted to burn right now. C cuts.
Starting point is 01:56:56 Scott Kerr, five dollars. Cursey. That's Rob's brother. You guys need to get Stauffer on and debate him on Bouchard. It was on 590 and fully believes he should be on the Olympic team and is good in his own end. Give yourself a head. Stoffer is not allowed to come on our show. I talked to many times.
Starting point is 01:57:13 He's a big fan of the show, loves the show. And keep in mind, Stoffer has been in this game a long time. We talked about butter. He's playing chess. So the Oilers, broadcaster and employee was on a national media and said. They're literally cut by the Edmonton Oilers. And he said something positive about a. If Jack was paying me, there's no way I'd shit talk him as much as it.
Starting point is 01:57:37 That's right. Have you guys seen Jack lately? He's been in the gym. Like, I am talking washboard abs. Like the hens are lined up on 34 acres, just waiting for him to leave. He's looking out for you by keeping that lasagna. from you he's interested you know i'm going to see a two a zero and a five one way or the other on that scale one way or you know why jack hasn't read that book he's waiting for the olympic break
Starting point is 01:58:01 what are the what are the two paths one way i'm guessing just being dedicated to fitness and eating healthy the other would be uh deadly illness oh because i could go the other way i could just start eating and i could definitely have a two a five It depends on the order. That's what I know. 205 or 2.50. On the one side, I have two months to live. On the other side, I did get dip under two bills for the first time in a long time.
Starting point is 01:58:36 Halffold, D. That's weird. I would love to have Stauffer on, though. Stoffer's great entertainment. Is it welcome any time? Utah, Jeremy Barbagello. Barbegette. Utah probably wants Wyatt
Starting point is 01:58:52 Johnston. I think everyone wants Wyatt Johnson. I do too. Did you have any premonitions about McCar and Johnson or just Macar? Johnson's not from here. He's not he doesn't even know where Calgary is. Can't find it on the map. And Jeremy, about it bagelette. He spelled his name right. About Abigail. It's John Stun.
Starting point is 01:59:08 How dare you? How dare you? He's talking about someone else. Oh! Is there another Johnson? Wyatt Johnson. That's the hotel chain, isn't it? Oh, that's a great place to stand out. The Waijo You're all right That's it right
Starting point is 01:59:30 Tag it on Yeah take it on Let's take it boys I'm out Tagathon another loss for the flames Would seemingly improve their mathematical Probability of winning it There you see it
Starting point is 01:59:41 They got the fourth best It's a 9.5 It was 95 yesterday wasn't it This thing is bullshit It's my bullshit Well it was their math is the same Yeah All those teams played last night
Starting point is 01:59:52 St. Louis I'm like nothing is still 9.5. It's the seating. It's not having the points over such much. All right. I love how you just don't trust anything. Well, this website's got to be wrong.
Starting point is 02:00:04 Like, why would it be wrong? Oh, Hawks again. It draws the hawks. This thing does love the greasy hot. Rangers too. To the point, you almost wonder. So does Gary.
Starting point is 02:00:19 This is worst case scenario. What do you like it for that? You're in the center at least, right? I'm going to get Tynin or the Mahalter, probably Mahaltor, which is fine. But we can't drop below that. No, we need that tough five, Dene. That's big. Tough five is important.
Starting point is 02:00:34 Huge. I don't even know who the six guys and I do all kinds of research on this. Probably can't read them. I don't need another defenseman. A luff shot you can take. Oh, okay. Love it care. All right, Jack, enough freebies for these.
Starting point is 02:00:47 Yeah. Sorry. Advertise just on tank. Is this the only website that's doing this shit? Nope. Maybe find one with less than a thousand ads. Do our bosses do it? Because we don't have any pop-ups in our network websites.
Starting point is 02:00:59 We don't stand for that. No, there wouldn't be videos that just start. And then you close that. Another one that opens. Is Connor Ingram the best pairing for Kristen Jari? The perfect badge. Tomorrow on the show, no Jamie McClennon, apologies.
Starting point is 02:01:13 That sucks. But. But in lieu of noodles. Take heart, good hockey friends. because Darren Dregor. Bob Stoffer? Bobby. That makes me feel better.
Starting point is 02:01:29 I like Drake's too. Dregs in tomorrow. Noodles on Thursday. I love the fact that Dregs is going ice fishing. That's cool. I respect us. He had a bunch of fancy phone. Why don't we go?
Starting point is 02:01:39 Are we doing the? Why don't we go? Because it's too nice here. Or not here. Of course it's not going to manage it. You can't fish here anyway. No, he's saying it's so he doesn't want to leave this to go to Manitoba weather. I'm not saying.
Starting point is 02:01:52 We don't go to Manitoba. How are you talking about it? I said, let's go. What are you missing? You want ice fish? It's too nice here. Go right through. Come over.

Starting point is 02:03:31 over there. Where they came from. Off and darts left. It's that smoke in here, Jeff. It's ripping like a chimney in here. So, yeah, tomorrow it'll be a game day.
