We're in it. We're ready to roll. Ready to go. We're in one? Oh, we're in it. Oh, baby. Big day. It's raining out, Dean.

Kind of. Yeah, kind of spitting. There is a, there's a, there's a precipitation, possibility of precipitation in the, in the general area for the better part of the day. You know what, though? No rain on our parade. No way. Not today.

Absolutely not. Nope, big one. You're feeling it. To tell you're in it. Oh, Woo! Uh, yeah.

Yep. Jack's got his, Jack is geared up. I'm cold though because I didn't take. Yeah, you took your, we were matching. We were matching.

So it looked a little. You said we look like a couple of assholes. It's like, well, be more than the shirt. More than a wardrobe change to change that, Rhett. You still have,

like, I don't know why you're not. Huh? A gangster. Like, just top button that all the way yes and then maybe unbuttoned the lower ones to let the gut out that's what the gangsters do what's that called when you got the top button done up and the rest are jack who you're talking when we ask you about yoko ono do you know anything no because i did

hips school hard knocks over here streets yeah mean streets of rural manitoba This program is a presentation of Bet365, whatever the moment. It's never ordinary at Bet365. You can count on that. Use the promo code nation. Get into the game, be 19 or older, and play responsibly. And let up and rolling. It's in the YouTube chat.

Put some money down. We'll send it over to the youth centers of Calgary. And then we'll put your comment on the show. Yep. What a day. Well, I'm going to interrupt you because just, you know, when these things pop in your brain, I've become quite the wuss. Because you said it's kind of, there's precipitation in the end.

And so in my brain, I've got a whole bunch of things I need to accomplish. Not even in my brain, but like there's a bunch of stuff to do. But there's. Can't do it now. What are we talking? It's like spitting out. It's there's precipitation. I can't be doing anything.

Yeah. I got to go straight home. Yeah, I got to get. Stay safe. Soup day. It's a soup day. Can't be expected to do anything. the hell today well now it is uh i mean it's opening day for baseball it's a flame's game day

should we go watch an inning could is that's it is raining it's raining though is that's i feel like i may just want to get straight home oh it's kind of surprised we even left the host jack what now you've got your uh it's interesting because he shit talks the pirates 360 some odd days of the year there's a lot of hope today d Today. Today. The hat is on. The hat is on.

The jersey is on. Paul Skeens is on the mound. Yes, he is. There is a lot of hope. He's a fireballer. He is. Yeah. Did a guy throw 104 the other day?

Could have. I thought I saw a pitcher zip one in there at 104. Yeah. Anyway. Is that your guy? I don't know. Anyway. So you're hopeful?

How many more years for Skeens in Pittsburgh? do you think before he how long is the rookie deal yeah nothing against Pittsburgh it just feels like one of those things where yeah so okay here's a question and I'm serious Sidney Crosby yeah can't leave love Pittsburgh great

why would I ever leave Pittsburgh it's Pittsburgh wonderful spot this guy he's run into the door immediately and maybe he's not but it feels no but there's a lot of players well Ben Rothlisberger's I guess football. I guess Mario. But Mario was,

if he wanted to get paid, he kind of had to hang around. That was the deal there. We don't have the money to pay you. Yeah. But, you know, we'd give you some of the stuff.

Do you want some hats and shirts? Like, if I'm ever going to get paid, I can't leave. I think he's right in the end, though, hey? Like, shares in the team and then.

Yeah. That's what we need. Shares. in what? I don't know, but there's got to be good shit. Like Amazon would have been great. Yeah, it would have been good. Yeah, would have been good.

It was like, uh, that'd be, I think we talked, did we talk about on this show? When, uh, Shaq was talking about it. He was offered, uh, Starbucks. He's like, black people don't drink coffee. Um, that's, it's not a thing. Coffee. What are we talking about? It's like, oops.

He's made out okay. Shack's doing just fine. Yeah, he's doing just fine. Yeah, he's doing just. fine. So fine. So good luck today. Go. The, uh, the, uh, the, uh, the buckos. Are you, uh, what's, what's, even despite the rain, uh,

do you have plans today? Uh, I do not have plans to watch the game. They're in Miami, uh, 2 o'clock, I believe. I'm going to the flames game tonight, boots on the ground in the dome. Holy smokes. You and Cole. Wow. Boots and cowboy had. Yeah. Yeah. Spurs. Get your chaps. Go hang out with Trent.

Call at the dome tonight. Yeah, it's a game day. Get your helmet on, Jack. Get it on. Calgary Flames. But can I, I keep, I'm used to it.

I know, but he's going, when he goes to the game, how does he act? I'm with my dad, so I got to. And he's a degenerate. So for sure they're going to get,

fall down drunk. And then he's going to be sick again. Uh, right? There's a pattern. There's a pattern here. And whether you're with your dad or not, if your dad doesn't approve of it,

you'll be hiding in the bathroom, shotgun, and cold ones. Just. It's a very small town thing where the dad is still like a big boozer. And like the kid is old enough to be like, dad, you don't need to, like, oh. Probably. Me and dad are going to the game. I mean, he's probably going to get into a fight.

Like, might be drunk tank. We'll see how it goes. Clark will. We always used to go fishing. His dad was leaving the fire pit and he couldn't walk. He had a few too many. He likes like, Dad, you're 50 years old. Like, come on.

Dad, clean it up. Dude. Well, we'll find out. I mean, there's disappointment because we had talked a long time about the 999 opening day and then. Can we do it? Should we? Should we step up?

I could never do it. Nine beers, nine inning. No, I'd be asleep. First of all, your launch point is terrible. My attitude before you even. What would I? What could you do? Boy, nine beers is a lot for me at this point.

Well, that's what the challenge is. You either have to accept it and do your damnedest or you, or you avoid the precipitation. It feels like a spectator sport for me. Pinder again has let us down. He's not here. Yeah, it's going to be great. We're going to do it.

I'm going to get a jersey, you're going. Oh, no, we can't do it. All right. Well, let's show how things go. He says we'll do it on another day when it doesn't matter. So that's good. But today you are going to the, so day drinking with dad for the buckos and then straight to the dome.

To the dome. I believe we're going to go to the casino for some dinner. Sure you are. Cowboys Casino. Casino for dinner or? drinks and dinner oh yeah maybe it'll tickle the felt hey play some piano play little cards maybe for a big day it's exciting i'm happy for you tomorrow i'm out shooter before tomorrow i hope dad doesn't leave you on the front step with your fishing pole oh dad said we were going this time

i'm how i can't wait for tomorrow now to hear all the uh why didn't you bring your dad in yeah i can bring him in tomorrow not don't tomorrow tomorrow Hung over. You all hung over. Stinking. Black eye, blood all over his clothes. Tonight, get your helmet on, Flames game day.

It's the Dallas Stars. Stars last night. Had a nice big, fat lead on the Edmonton Oilers and then let it slip late, but did find a way to win. They did win. That's what we wanted.

Stars win, so they weren't honorary when they came to Calgary. Old Jake Ottinger was in net. Who's the other guy there? 41 saves. Casey DeSmith. Oh.

Who it feels like you might say. Is it Casey or Casey? Casey like Finnegan. Who's? Remember? Casey. Casey up to bat? Wasn't Casey and Mr. Dressup?

Was that Casey and Finnegan? It does sound somewhat familiar, but I'm like with a C? When you don't support me, it's not that I'm big trouble. Stars of one, three in a row, points in six straight. however the flames say hey just hold on a sec just wait a tick those dusters we're not too shabby yeah it's casey and finnigan bud oh god remember we had to watch that i know terrible yeah so the stars are good stars are good flames are good they need to win yeah like i mean for the stars they're set 96 points 46 wins points percentage however you want to cut it favorites in the west

Third overall in the national hockey league. I guess Winnipeg's real good and Vegas is real good. Edmonton's supposed to be good when their top two guys are playing. Top four. So give me those in your, if you had a confidence poll. Who in Colorado. I forgot about Colorado.

Colorado's there too. What were they 13, one and one or something? Yeah, going into tonight. They're real good. Look up, way up. And I'll call Rusty.

Vegas? Friendly giant. Vegas, Colorado, Dallas, Edmonton, Winnipeg. You don't trust Winnipeg. Kind of hard to. They've been like Jack's dad. They've left you at the...

Tell you got all these big plans, how much fun it's going to be. It's going to be great. First round. The white out in June. Yeah, not never... It's going to be amazing. Never going to happen. Not happening.

The abs are... And then the un-talked about Vegas Golden Knights. Yeah. We're just really good. Yeah. Oh, we forgot. Would you like to know mine?

Yeah. Dallas, Dallas, Vegas, Colorado, Winnipeg, Edmonton. The top, the top, I mean, Dallas,

I just think it's their time. They've been to, what, the Western Conference final, how many times? Yeah, they're always, weren't they in the final,

like a bubble or something? They were there in bubble. They've had some runs. Winnipeg is not. The Oilers were a win away last year from glory but it feels like i don't start to say the oilers i don't want to say anything they play on saturday don't i get all jinxy that's not saturday no stars are good they have not lost more

than two consecutive games all season consistent yeah boys run it this is a terrible streak oh back to back yes this is i've had it Jim nils freaking out. We get, we lose three. DeBoar is in trouble. Oh, they're good.

Well, they can go get torts. Rantanin, starting to mix in a little bit. I believe it's, you know, he's not quite a point per game, but he's still very good.

He will help them. I would think down the stretch. Jason Robertson had a second period natural hat trick. Rupert had three assists. He's a real close score of that, Roberts. Yeah,

it looked like maybe he was, oh, he's not going to be as good, is he? And then now he's, he's got 23 goals in 2025. 2025, not the season. Since January 1st, 23 goals.

Oh, that's what he's done in his last 24 games. Pick him up. Yeah, he's feeling it. I think the last time, because the flames played these guys on that road trip. Remember the sixth game, Rodey, the, what was it, Huska's nightmare? It was the last game, and they did lose an overtime, but it was a gallant effort. Great job, Flames. But we kind of walked through how Robertson,

and certainly Thomas Harley and Wyatt Johnston how these guys from basically January 1 on just on unbelievable runs and that's just continuing they're still all really loving life loving it yeah

they've beaten the flames twice already this season it will be Dustin Wolf in the flame net tonight yow Are we shocked? Not at all. No, it shouldn't be. Are we hopeful on this game? Are we skeptical?

Are we worried? Are we excited? Is it a Bogotty or just a game? I don't like it. You're not convinced this sets up well for the... I don't like the way it's setting up. No. It's not just because it's the stars, right?

Yes, because they've... Now, you are hopeful because you were not going to have that ottinger. You're not going to have ottinger. I wouldn't think. What is to Smith? I looked this morning. But they're just good, right? He's 12, 6, and 1.

Oh, so. 2.39 goals against the 916 save percentage. That's the thing, the, everybody else in front of him still plays. So, so you'll still have hard. So go through that backup goaltenders numbers? Because usually the backup's terrible.

Right. 916 save percentage is actually better than Ottinger. Smaller body, of course, it's good to happen sometimes. What's the record? 12 wins, six losses, one over time. That's like a 750 win percentage, right? 700? Yeah.

Goals against say percentage both better than Ottinger. But again, Ottinger's played way more games. Yeah, but I don't care about Ottinger. I know. It's just in general. Yeah. Doesn't seem like that big of a callback. Here's another thing you can, because you played, right?

Long time ago. Okay. Different era. They are top five in the NHL, the Dallas Stars. Goals four and goals against. Oh, yeah, well, that'll, that'll balance out then, Dean. It's good to balance some things out. Sometimes you're really good at one, but you're horseshit at the other.

You don't want to be tippy. Yeah, they're fifth in goals four, fourth in goals against. Bastards. Come on, goals, four. You know, it's better. So they've got good things. Meryl Haskin, one of the best D in the world. He's been out since January.

or something. No Tyler's saying again. We did this against Washington. I'm telling them how good they are. Yes. Great strategy, Dean. You're welcome. I can't believe the flames don't employ you.

Pay your big box guaranteed win nights. Yeah. So they're unbeatable. It's impossible. No chance. Go get them. They have the game notes that they put out on a game day. It's like, okay, well, I know he's good.

Yeah, he's good. Of course he's good. And then you get a little bit deeper. It's like, Jesus. Do we have? McHale Granlin has 37 points in 31 road games. What? Like this is Granlin.

How frigging deep are these guys? Yeah, I don't like it, Rhett. Don't love it. Find a way flames. Good luck, Jack. I hope you're, uh, you're the missing piece to the puzzle tonight down at the dome. Me too. I don't think they've won a game I've been to this year.

So. a couple over times. Well, that's great, Jack. God damn it. What time is this game? Seven tonight? Yeah. Hopefully Jack shows up around nine.

Seven o'clock. So you're not the good luck charm. Oh, no. Maybe you should sell those tickets. I didn't buy them. Are the good seats? No one, no one you're. I don't know.

I don't know. I'll sweet. No, when your deadbeat dad, you're probably up in the. rafters. Which is fine. Nothing wrong with being the rafters, I suppose. How do you feel about this game?

I'm... Are you optimistic? I'm optimistic because of Huska's nightmare when they went into Dallas and I think they've played Dallas hard. And they were, that game gave me, maybe they know how to play this team. But then they lost.

Well, you know, but they had, They had a lead. They were up two to nothing. But they lost. Yeah. And right now we're not about moral victories. We've had plenty of moral victories. Lots of moral victories.

We need points. Tenth sucks. Get eighth. See, here's a great question coming in from Adam. But did Huska wear the same tie last game? Well, if you mean two nights ago, yes. Did he wear his lucky tie when they played Dallas? I don't think he did.

I wish I had something lucky. Yeah, you have nothing going your way. I know. Life's been a real shit. A sort of token that says, well, I'm sure he'll have the tie on tonight, so whether he wore it last game doesn't matter. That's right.

It's on tonight, guaranteed win night. Do you think there's a certain number of wins in the tie? Like, are you just using them all up here? I feel like there are. That's what I've always found when I started to get superstitious. because then once you lose a couple of times, you're done with it. Right now you're...

Well, if he loses, say he wears it tonight and he loses, is it still... Yeah. You don't wear it again in the next game. So, yeah. That's a good question. Now, was it new when he bought it? That I don't know.

Or did he go way back in the closet? I got ties. Somebody wants to wear one. Thinks it'll be lucky. Yeah. doubt it. All right. Yeah, kind of doubt it.

So anyway, that's the story. Nazim Cadry has been red hot. You can't stop. You can only hope to contain him. Five, he's got a four game, like, goal streak, not just goals. Five in those four games. So better than Robertson? Better than, well, Robertson had three last night.

Oh, and then. Anyway, but I'm wondering, I'm willing to bet he probably does have more than five in his last four games just based on the fact that he had three last night. But it's not important. It's not important. It's not important. Sharon Govich is going to come out flying tonight. Yep.

I got a good feeling about that. We're too pessimistic. We need someone with some optimism to come in. What it is is I just feel like the stars are, I just told, I had them in my, do you see my ranking? I did the thing there. I had the right at the top. So. Do you feel?

better about this or the Battle of Alberta on Saturday? Alberta Saturday. Really? Yeah. Yeah, I do. I just don't think these guys are fun at all. The play against. No. Because I think you can be very good.

Isn't there some mud we could sling at them? Like, I heard that some of the staff are screwing over minor hockey people. What? I'm not joking. Oh, my goodness. There's an article somewhere. And all these guys do it. all these organizations, they run tournaments and then they make arrangements with the hotels, a little kickback.

Oh, is that right? A little kickback. It's a stay to play. If you're not staying at the Hudson Inn there, you're not allowed to step on the ice. Really? Really? That seems crooked. Yeah.

All right. I think there's a lot out of there. See it? Did you pull it up? No, what I have, here's the, what I'm going to throw your way. you ready jack not a fastball i'm i'm not good with pete d'bore is the head coach of the dallas stars now last night his stars had a four-nothing lead they pissed it away they won four three they held on this is what pete d'bore had to say about his team last night oh it's a hard league to win in

and i haven't had many disappointing wins in my career but this would be one of them i thought we played a really immature, sloppy game tonight, especially in the first and third. It's concerning. It's late in the season and playoffs are around the corner. It's a concerning trend here lately. Send in a message. How much more hope do you want than that? Send in a message.

You think? Is that hope or is that bad? Because it's getting addressed by the coach. And he's saying, get off, quit pissing around here. Let's get it going. That's true. Son of my. Wait till after this case.

and say that Deboor. Yeah, you can, I hope he has another dis- an encouraging loss tonight. Maybe things turn around, but it ends up in- they work harder, but they don't win.

So what was the final score? I looked at it. It was four-nothing, Dallas. Yeah, they scored three. In the second half of the third period. Wow. Yeah. So your homework, Jack.

Yeah, Jack. We'll talk about the Pinder Report. Well, coming up in a little bit. I hope Huska can get that discouraged. tonight. I didn't like the win at all. It's a hard league to win it and I just

I'm usually I'm not critical of wins but I'm beside myself we're going to be here early tomorrow to figure out how to work well, banks gate. Do you think Greg Keller is watching? Why was texting me earlier? Was he? My food's right? And I saw he was upset about torts

we'll talk about that. I don't think torts is upset. No, I don't think he is at all. He's like, thank God. Thank you. We're going to just throw a wrench into the whole thing. We're doing a super chat right now because I saw it. It's so good. You're Senators of Calgary.

You're about to get paid. Here you go. Oh, 699 from Gavin. Boys, finally made it to Bon Ton. The potato salad was amazing. It's amazing. We kidding.

Yep. We're kidding. Greg doesn't like it. I know he doesn't like it. He doesn't like that we talk about it. or he doesn't like it actually. I think I, he thinks that his shop is more than potato salad.

I would agree. I think that's true. And I'm proving that by going and taking piles of beef. Yeah. Yeah. I think I'm trying to think of, of an analogy. If you have like a,

your car company and you make some of the best sports cars. And then at the back, you kind of got this kind of a hatchback. But man, it does everything you want it to. It's reliable. Ferrari. A to point.

Guys, do you see what's in the showroom out front? Like I got all this. And all you guys can talk about is the forebanger out back. I got something special for you. I don't know if you heard about her. If we've talked about it, but I got CTE, so I sometimes forget. He's making soup. Is he?

He's making soup. Well, I knew he was doing the bone broth. Is that like? He texts me. He goes, I got some soup I want you to try. We love it. soup. He texted me the other day too about something. I don't even know how to feel about the.

Look at this. Salad samples. Well, yeah, I send you samples of our new in-store made soup. Oh, ho. I did get some chili. I did get some store-made chili in one of the reasons. He was very impressed with your order. I think he's always very impressed with the order that you put in. Uh, he said it probably deserves maybe a little potato salad on the side.

Can I order that package again? 20 pounds. Beef, pork, turkey. So that's how you're 20 pounds. Oh my goodness. It's more impressive to see it in print. Can you send that to Jack? This is how you do it, folks.

Don't piss around. Get it done. One time. Today's a tough day. He loves torts. Torts is out. We'll talk about it in the Pinder Report. I suppose we'll talk about it.

Well, torts, but I had to. What are you going to do? Well, the team was playing terribly. They weren't inspired for him. He didn't want to come down on him. He was in a position of no. And after the last game, he's like, I'm terrible and I don't want to be here. What do you do if you're Breyer?

It's kind of, I, yeah. And there again, we said yesterday, I like the honesty. He knew what was coming. Torz totally new. Been around the block. He's not saying that if he's worried at all about losing his spot. No, he's got all the money he needs. He's,

it's not a team that he's interested in coaching. I mean, it's not what he's after. That's, I think Sarajevoie had it this morning. He's got one more year left on his contract. I was not going to stay anyway in a year's time. So. Yeah.

And he shouldn't be in that spot. Torrance is a take you over the top coach. Yeah. It was like Sutter. You're going to sign Sutter up for a rebuild? No, I don't think so. Bontan meat, Margaret. 28, Crowfitz Circle Northwest, proud to be Calgary,

and Southern Alberta's Consumer's Choice Award winner for Best Meat and Deli for 24 consecutive years. So that order that you get, what is it like, truly, what does it look like in terms of boxes? It's four boxes. Four boxes. Look at this. Yay. Can I order a package again? 22 pound packs of ground beef

22 pound packs of ground pork 22 pound backs of ground turkey 25 double packs of skinless chicken breast that's a lot of chickens so good the chicken got to have the chicken DUG will only eat the chicken from the banta

25 New York strips 25 filets 12 baseball ribbi two four packs of beef short ribs two prime rib roast size to feed eight does this make sense how'd you like the game last night that is unbelievable you could copy that he should have that up that should be the warner yeah yeah do the warner how quickly do you go through that well i got one in in october yeah in november so that got you through the winter i could look yeah most of the winter yeah no no burgers i make burgers yeah

Yeah. I made turkey burgers last night. They were phenomenal. Boys were raving. Chris is impressed. Does this make sense? For a whole year, yes. No, no. That's probably a third of this year. Four months. So how does that, I mean, I guess I know the answer. It goes in the deep freeze. How many deep? What's your, I got a standup free. Yeah. And then chest freezer. I don't mess around. What am I going to do? Go down to the Sev and pick up some... No, I don't... No disrespect to Sev. What, Cam?

freezer not sure how that's gonna go uh well to the pender part we gotta look at the bracket you know what i was thinking we were gonna we could do what because you would kind of you and a i i a little bit at odds yesterday between the 93 and the 95. It's a battle. Because we're almost through the month of March. After tonight's game, they're going to road trip for three games, and then you're into April. And I just want to see how many points.

Where it all comes? Well, just start with, what do you think? How do you think it's going to go? And then we can do some math after the fact. Rather than looking for the math, just take the vibe of the schedule, and then add it to the current total. and see if it gets you start adding it.

Because I think if you go in looking for numbers, okay, that's five, that's seven, and that's, you're going to really start to squint maybe. Or maybe if you get a bunch, then you feel, ah, then at the back end,

I don't really need them. Yeah, get soft. Yeah. Is there any way we can do that, Jack? Just kind of call up the, uh,

the schedule. Yeah. Now remember, I said 90, AI and I are in great shape together. Like I said 95 and you're in. Yeah. Doesn't mean the.

Okay, yeah. Right, like get to 95. You're cruising. So you're thinking 93 or 95. 93 is a battle. There might be a tie. There might be right. 95.

Coasting, cruising. Yes. Yes. All right. There we go. I'll do some wins. Oh, my goodness. Jackie, I mean, you're going to have to, do you have the calendar version?

Like on the website? I'll do wins. losses extra time losses in fairness i sprung this on you yeah um well we can do the last three of this month or let me grab screenshots first game is the oilers rat or no dallas tonight it's Dallas tonight we're going to have a tie okay you get a one point all right edmonton win then it is Colorado on Monday loss Utah Utah win, which then gets us all go over here. Do what Jack can't do, which is kind of just bring up a bloody calendar.

So there's the Utah. Then you got Anaheim at home. Why can't you put that on there? I know. You can't? Well, I can't. He's driving the bus. Sorry, what did you say?

Anaheim at home. After the three-game trip. They're playing okay. 7.30. See, this is the thing. You're going to have a win where you didn't think, and then they're going to have a loss where you should. But we'll just take the teams we should beat.

Anaheim is a win. Vegas. Loss. On the road, San Jose. They're going to lose one of those two games. It's either San Jose or Anaheim. Splittes? Yeah, I'll go win in San Jose.

No, loss in San Jose win in Anaheim. Is there a, is there, okay. What? On the road, Minnesota, or sorry, back at home, Minnesota. Must win. Bugatti. So is a win or is a must win? Okay.

Because it has to be. San Jose. Win. Vegas. Loss. Last game of the season. Lost. So you got them five, five, and two.

That's not going to do it. That's 12 points. That's 12 points. Where are we at? That's going to be real close. So that's 12. On top of their 79. 91 doesn't do it.

You got any arguments with my choices? Not really. You might mix in one of those losses might be an overtime. I was going to say if anything, if. Right, maybe it's 5, 4, and 3. So now you're at 92. Like, it's going to be tight in there. because even if you take all the teams that you're supposed to beat

I know it's not enough right San Jose twice that's two Anaheim twice four Utah five I don't know how you feel about Edmonton with where those other teams are all right like you maybe have five teams that are below you enough where you expect to win and the rest of them just this week like you could lose the next three real easily

and play very well. Hence they should have won in St. Louis. I was going to see, you look back to that two games set in St. Louis. Because you know what the catch on that is? What is the catch? The catch is that St. Louis would be playing as hard. They got the points that kept them in it. If they were.

Because there's where we sit today. Ladies and gentlemen, Vancouver does win last night. So they, in essence, leapfrog the flames, despite the games played. Flames have a better points percentage than Vancouver. but not St. Louis. They don't? St. Louis has a 568. Calgary has a 564.

Now, maybe that math works out differently, but because I wondered if that was maybe how I was going to go. It's 95, 93, and then you go through, okay, well, let's look at the sked. So what gets you to where? Oh, that's not 93 or 95. You need seven or eight wins out of your next 12.

So you need 12. Seven is four. gets your, yeah, 93. Or you hope that St. Louis, seven-game win streak. I don't think it matters because somebody is going to get points, right? I know. That's stupid Utah. You know what I mean?

They play them. If they're hanging around, that's going to be a battle. Indeed it will, Rep. Indeed it will, Dean. Nice to see Anaheim tuned. I'm not really, like, this is, and it was not my intent to put people in a poopy mood. it's not poopy it's just a the work is not done so what you've done so far we applaud you for if you think for one moment yeah for one second like huska better be in that room drill sergeant saying

this is a must you win game it's a baguadie biggest game of the year if you don't know what baguadie means boys that's what it means get it tattooed on your forehead because that's what it is the rest of the way out what it is the whole way okay Here's the lines, Dean. This one's for Pat. Codry and the kids. Huberto, Frost, Coronado. What's going on in the back end?

Farby has, does he miss one or two? He was not well. He's, it looks like there's a backland in there as well. So potentially big changes here. Clapka scored last game, Arunee. Bombard. On the back end, Hanley, Weiger, Ball, Pahal, Bean,

Miramanov, your observation is where's the Swede? No Raspus Anderson. Where's the Swede? Swede's taking the morning off. There's a bug going around, Dean. People are sick. Could be. Keep my fingers crossed. Doesn't help with Anderson out.

To look at that in print, going against a top four offense in the league. If we have the other lineup, Jebus. Hanley-Weiger, It's like Weger sitting around. No, who are you guys?

Try to keep up. I don't think he's that kind of guy. No, I don't, but I think he'd be sitting at home. He'd be thinking much better than I ever gave him crying. I'm the only NHL guy on this blue line. Kevin Ball's like, hey, what the fuck? Easy. Okay, maybe.

All right, Kev, settle out. Settle out. All week's will be in there at the end of the year, just ripping Conroy. Yeah. Give me someone to play with. Would you please. Spend some of that money. Get off your wallet.

worrying about forwards stupid forwards well well that's i mean good news about the other suite if backland is bank you know i guess that's good right oh but oh my guy i said was going to be good he's not right our yager yeah our yigore is also not in there um no it's morning skate doesn't mean nothing and maybe you know what it is maybe it's kind of Upterfuge. Hey, look who we're not playing and look who is playing. And then the game comes around and it's like, you are a lion sack. And DeBoers over there rattled.

Holy. What the age is going on? You can't do that, can you? Call Gary. Backland, this again, according to, um, Hey, Pat, fuck up. Uh, Backland says he's in tonight versus Dallas. He'll return after missing six games with an upper.

Rass was Anderson not taking morning skate took a twirl without pads or stick prior to main skate. You ever do that? Prior to morning skate, go out without that. That means you're not sick. It's not a flu bug that's hit you because you're not going out there if that's the case. You might just take the day off, do that to try out a new stick. Right. Check the edges on those blades.

Can you do an option for a morning skate before a, before a, Bogotty? I loved options. Yeah. They should all be options. Everything. Coming in here should be optional. Fridays should be optional.

Morning skates always optional. Well, you hope it's nothing serious. Well, the thing with that, he's me blocking shots. He's in it all the time. I bet he plays. I bet he plays. He knows what's on the line. If he doesn't play, then trade his ass out of here because he doesn't

I don't know what with having absolutely no info on it well why don't I also think he's gonna buy is our intrepid do we have anyone down at the dome nah no pike he's always kicking around isn't he I don't know if it's morning skate stuff yeah I won't text him we'll figure it out outdoor dental don't snore why snore when you don't have to snore would seem to be kind be just the rationale here. It's the Solea laser, which is cutting edge, state of the art. There it is. You use it for your dental treatments, relaxed, comfortable, pain free. If you're tired of people in your dental office, if you're not at outdoor dental that are in there with hooks and they're scraping and chisling away in there, then you've not been to outdoor dental because it's the way to do it.

In addition to the relaxed dental work, it's also used for snoring. Two 15-minute treatments increase the tension in the soft palate. Reduce snoring, non-surgical pain-free. Two-15-minute treatments. Easy-beast. Hardly. You can't even fall asleep. I know it's kind of spitting outside, but today might be the day for it.

If you're going to put everything else on the back burner, today's a day to take care of some health. Sleep better, deeper sleep, more sleep, sleeping longer. feeling better, more energy, more energy the whole thing. So how about it? Outdoor.dental is the website. And they don't do it outdoors. That's just the name of the... He's a very outdoorsy guy.

Yeah, and there again, it's about health and longevity and being productive and... That's right. Like us, I guess. Doing what's right for the body. Yep. Going straight home. Whoa. That's what's right for the body

because there's precipitation and we've got to be safe. That's right. Doors? The sniffles. We'll do the Pinda report. It's presentation of Village Honda. One million dollar buy an event is back. We've been telling you about it.

Your pre-owned vehicle. Have you thought about it? Have you contacted Village Honda? Have you gone online to start the free appraisal process? Stress-free. Complementary payment within 24 hours if you get into, if you find yourself a deal that you like with Village Honda. If you're returning a lease to another

another dealership, just, just, whoa, pump the brakes. Breaks. Let Village Honda have a crack first. VillageHonda.com and, of course, located in the Northwest Automall. Ryan Pinda. Ryan Pinda.

Yep. Pinder report. Back tomorrow, he says, Oh, good. How was the week alone? With him? I think it's trying for you. I know.

Let's not bogger. self's down. Flames and stars game day. Helmets on. Flames are riding a four game win streak. Four consecutive come from behind victories, Red. That's right. The four game stretch of comeback wins. The third longest stretch in team history. I don't recommend you continue that trend. Yeah. Well, if you are down in the game, continue. Yeah. But if you're if you're, start better get a lead and then just hang on to it the whole way would the wind streak part's good yeah team record is six in that fashion back in 1617 was that the findaway flames might have been and there were five back in 88 89 what a year red what a year to be yeah we never hear about it

yeah uh stars four three winners in evans and last night oilers three times in the final 10 minutes and 20 seconds but could not get the time goal too bad all ottinger may 4841 saves a second period natural hat trick for Jason Robertson so he's all scored out he's a puckhug group A hints three assists he's not just dishin just dish now these two teams played four weeks ago pretty much to the day it was the final game of the six game trip they lost in overtime they led to nothing in the second period Dan Vladar 24 saves and the loss flames have been real good since though five two and one some of their best best hockey of the season. So maybe they owe the Dallas Stars. Maybe they owe that road trip. We thought the road trip was going to be the big torpedo. Yeah.

I'll take them down. It's not been the case. Come on, hockey gods. Let's have a win here. Yeah, come on. Deserved the last one against the Stars. Sure did. Three game road trip after tonight.

Edmonton Saturday, Colorado, Monday, Utah, as we showed you. As for that game last night in Edmonton, Dallas Stars with the win. More bad news for the the Edmonton Oilers. It was last Thursday when Stu Skinner got clunked in the game against Winnipeg, had to leave.

It was concussion protocol, didn't come back. O'Cal Pickard had to finish that game. He was injured again last night. Need in the head by Miko Rantman. Now, did I put this in, Jack? He's a dirty prick that Rantman. So I don't know how deliberate it is. There's Rantinan kind of at the left side of the goal.

As we look at it, he cuts through the top of the crease going for the puck and clips Skinner. Is he dead? So he catches him on the right ear. I can tell you. It looks worse from that angle. Goleys in the 80s weren't. Mike Vernon wasn't laying there wounded. Coach Knoblock suggested that Skinner would not be traveling to Seattle today for their game, or last night, for their games.

against the crack and they play there tonight so they will be uh jettisoning in another go if he's not able to go i don't think he is and it'll be pickered against the crackin not sure what that means for the b o a on saturday hope he's okay no you don't want anyone be in the knock you don't maybe it's just a kink hope he's okay you like the kinks no not really hit and miss there's some bangers uh uh robertson becomes the sixth play in team history to have three 30 goal seasons at the age of 25 or younger. There's a Broughton in there. I think there's a Cicerole.

There's a Medano in there. Some good players, yeah. The Vancouver Canucks are also kind of in this thing that the flames have going with. I'm trying to forget about these guys. I know. They scored three times in a 706 stretch, scored four unanswered to beat the Islanders five to two. Kiefer Sherwood, two goals.

an assist. Thatcher Demko has been oft injured. He is back. He's played two games. He has won them both. And look good in doing it. And yes, and thus the Canucks have moved past the flames. Into that wild card. It's 80 points, flames of 79 and two games. You know what? Math. Cadux visit Columbus on Saturday. I'm glad the Islanders lost, though, because they're so boring. They are kind of boring. And then they're all of a sudden they're sticking. you're like get out of the way get like don't do something else like get out no let Montreal finish in that spot yes uh devils beat the hawks five three chicago's lost eight of nine hawks anaheim six two over the bruins bruins have really packed it in it's uh the positive vibe

that they had the uh we're going to go for it even though it's stupid idea it's really working out they have lost seven straight have the bruns let's let's bring in these heart And solers. Last time they were winless in seven is when they lost 10 straight in 2010. So it's been a while since they've been this smelly. Shots were 155 Anaheim in the first period. Way to be ready, boys. That's the minute's packing it in.

You got to, you got to applaud it. Yeah, they're not faking it. We're not going to try your work. Now Zedoroff wasn't with the team. He had a personal matter. Anyway, I just went last night. But I'm just thinking how. how Morale is in the room.

Because we know what kind of... Yeah, heart and solars they brought. How they were feeling last year. Yeah. Well, enjoy. Tonight, who's getting fired at the staff? With the Bruins? Probably nobody.

No? Oh, I think somebody should. I don't think it's Sweeney. I don't think it's Neely. But like Pinders said, he's like, who's your Western scout? Well, yeah. You're an idiot.

I think that's, you know what it is? Or maybe that guy was ranting and flipping out so you don't, don't. Maybe. Yeah, you could have been. I just think that's big city blinders sometimes. Yeah, they were, that's Calgary. We bring them in here. It's Boston.

It's our good. And then they're like, no, no, we're kind of shitty, actually. Boston, Calgary, wherever you want to put us, we're probably just. You know, Philly. has been terrible lately and they fire torts, but Boston's intriguing because two years ago set a record.

A record for victories and points in the season. So here we are. Total dischamble. Or shambles now. Where Chicago and Boston, ew, Toronto. Toast.

Toast of the league. Yep. Ten games tonight. Flames will be keeping an eye on St. Louis versus Nashville. Blues are cruising. A little help here would be great, guys. What a day for Jack.

The pirates. And then the Sabres penguins. What a lot. Just crushing, hey? Please lose. Please lose. Both teams are just praying for loss. But in true Sabres fashion, they're playing some of their best hockey.

Oh, why not? That one, it's terrible. So, yeah, that's, Nashville would be awesome with some help. out there for the flames and their fans. Kings' abs could be a banger here. Kings since February 1st, 14, 4, and 3. I told you yesterday.

You said their home record. Their home record is terrific. Where is it here? So February 1st, L.A. trailed Edmonton by 10 points. They're now two ahead of the Oilers with a game in hand. They've made some real ground, is what I'm telling you there. Habs want to get back on track against the flyers. senators likewise they've got Detroit.

Alex O'atchkin will continue his pursuit of the all-time goals record in St. Paul against the wild. Score three, Alex. He's on a five-game point streak, six goals shy of passing. Wouldn't it be nice for him to get a three because it helps because the wild lose again, if you probably? And we can just get this over with this year? Probably, yeah, I think they would all like that.

I don't want to chip away one at a time. I want a big jump and then Yeah. I think either way he's probably going to do it. Even if he has to come back next year. Maybe it's better to do it. These two goals away, do you think he can do it? Probably.

So that's it for that there, I suppose. Now, do we still have the John Tortorella from two days ago? The Flyers were manhandled by Toronto and Torrance was asked after the game. It's kind of. Well, I think it was back to back. They gave up a touchdown. Yeah, you guys are really having a hard time.

It's the end of the year. This whole sort of thing. And he basically said, this is on me for games like this. It's on the coach to get guys ready. We do, we'll go back. Here's torts from two days ago. It's my job to prepare this team in this type of situation. Haven't done a good enough job past couple of games.

these last two games. Are you sensing frustration setting in? Maybe it's a cumulative effect from last week playing well and not getting results? Well, when you're in this type of situation and you're losing all the time and there's nothing at the end of the tunnel for you, there's certainly going to be some frustration. But this falls on me. I'm not really interested in learning how to coach this type in this type of season where we're at right now. But I have to do a better job. So this falls on me getting the team prepared to play the proper way until we get to the end. So that's two days ago.

This morning, the Philadelphia Flyers release a press release or a statement of sorts. The Philadelphia Flyers announced today the team has relieved John Tortorello of his duties as head coach. Philadelphia Flyers associate coach Brad Shaw has been named interim head coach and will assume duties immediately. And then Danny Breyer, who is the GM, who would have made the, ultimately been part of the decision making anyway and made the. The announcement also had a statement.

Today I made the very difficult decision to move on from John as our head coach. John played a vital role in our rebuild, set a standard of play and reestablish what it means to be a Philadelphia flyer. His passion on the bench was only equaled by his charitable work in our community. As we move into the next chapter of this rebuild, I felt this was the best for our team to move forward. I'd like to thank John for his tireless work and commitment to the flyers. I'm sure he wrote that. AI? Or somebody downstairs.

Either way. So John is out. There's the Sarajevole tweet. As a coach ever fired himself before? I'm not really interested in learning how to coach in this type of season where we're at right now. That's one for the books. He had one year left at $4 million. He did.

It was. Yeah. Honesty. Always the best policy. I don't know that it was, do you think it was premeditated? I'm going to come out tonight and I think. I don't know why, but for some reason I feel like I've seen Tortorillo behind the bench now for the last month and he's

that's the top. John Tortarella has an aura about him even when you're watching him from your living room in Calgary. He had none of that. There was no fire. There was no passion. He's looking, he's not even mad at the goaltenders who are horseshit.

We're letting in sieve goals. He's just looking down there. Well, yeah, the flame saw it first hand. Yeah, it was like it. Right? Like that's not torts. Like he should be in the media afterwards flipping out. That's towards, but he knows that this team

isn't in a spot to win and can't win. Because he had that fire. I was going through clips this morning, just kind of looking for things. And remember when he was yelling at the ref, he's like, I'm not leaving. Yes. He's like, you're kicked out.

I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving. That fire burns. But you can see how it would how it would keep squeezing on those guys that aren't capable of winning in the NHL right now. Yeah.

Couldn't they perform better? Absolutely. So I know we're close. I get the feeling this was kind of one of those things. I don't know that there was even a, well, John, we kind of. You kind of said. No, I know.

I expected whether it's now or at the end of the season or whatever. Well, we can't. I can't have this out there. It's only whatever 10 games left, but you've kind of said you're not interested in coaching the team anyway. But they should. I don't. They'll have plenty of options.

He's going to be back, though. right i don't know sarch uh i talked to me the other day and he goes it's he we talked about torts and they had their reunion thing in in tampa a couple years ago was last whatever it was yeah and he talked about torts and how he's changed like he was so strict and you get dressed up and you do your hair and you show up at the rink and he and now he's wearing a sweater yeah bench right like he's aging to and i don't care it's just i i don't know i've never coach. I don't know what point. Like, is Lindy rough?

He's 66. I mean, he's not old at all. Sixty six is still a reasonable age where you're going, do I need to fly around the country and do this? Like, I've, you know, and for other guys that haven't won,

there's that accomplishment part where you want to have been in this for so long. I'm not giving up. Whereas this guy's one. I don't know. I don't know. You love having him around.

I think he's awesome. But not the way he was in Philly for the last two months. There is he here. You looking up the all-time? Yeah, just in terms of wins, he is ninth. Games played or games coached, I just, I told, I get where you're looking at. It's, it's an amazing career. Do those matter?

you know what I mean for him to come back is he got to come back because he's like well I want to be no top five I guess what I'm saying is in there done that yeah I'm top five I'm top 10 and wins I'm top five or six in games coached I've got a champ more importantly I got grandkids and I want to spend time with because I can tell you as a man who's aging shit that mattered before there's a lot of it's like I precipitation do I could really give or take it just doesn't really matter I and I've got a lot of time for the guy. I'd dig him. I don't know if I'd want to work for him or that sort of thing. I think you'd love work. You probably would. I think eyes wide open, you have to know what you're getting into.

I would imagine that John Tortorella, you know, in that shitty statement that Breyer, it's not shitty. It's just, yeah, he didn't do it. But I think John is behind the scenes a caring human being. Yeah. I think that he would probably have done as much behind the scenes. for people as he has for teams in coaching. Well, he's like you. He's a big animal lover.

Have you seen he takes in dogs and his foster? Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh. I know. I give dogs new homes. Yeah, you do. Yeah, you find new homes.

So there it is. That's in terms of win. So he's ninth all time in front of Big D. And look, everybody, that's, he's a Hall of Famer. However you want to slice it. Yeah. He's got a Stanley Cup. He's one, I'm guessing is one in Jack Adams somewhere along the way.

He does leave with flames coming out of keyboards. Vancouver, I'm going in to fight Bob Hartley. Philadelphia. I'm not sure I really want to coach this anymore. The New York Rangers. I guess that's what I'm telling you, Brooksie. He does find a way to make an exit. I loved him in New York.

Yeah. It was because he had some real swag. He got his cup. Still young, full of piss and vinegar. Now he's in New York City. Shit, yeah. I guess that's what I'm telling you, Brooksie. Fuck off.

Telling reporters to F off and strung. Yes. Yes. Yes, he's tortsy. All right. Leon Drysidal took part in skate yesterday. Of course, Oilers' flames coming up on Saturday. Take another couple days.

Drysidal is still always, is still a little bit away. McDavid is further away from return than is McDavid, but it's still sounding like maybe neither will be in the game on Saturday against Calgary. And now you wonder about skin dog. Brad Marchand. Sorry, just to circle back to all the things, Oiler, they let those kids go, they're kicking ass in St. Louis.

They bring in a bunch of guys they don't need. Everyone tells them their goaltending is questionable. you should probably address that right don't bother like if you don't win it is very easy as a fan as a pundit as a reporter to go you guys are a bunch of ass hats aren't you like who is running this stupid organization and if you're mac david if you were smart and had your eyes wide open you'd be like what in the f is going on here yeah are my really sticking around for this bullshit because we knew our D

was no good. We needed youth and speed and players and we had guys that played in Game 7 and Stanley Cup finals with us and we let them just go. We've been to bring in a bunch of old bastards that aren't helping. I'll say this. Our goal tendings average and we'll just leave it. If they find a way

to turn it all around and they go all the way, they win this thing this year, it will be. It'll be on the backs of McDavid and Drysettled with no help from anyone else and that's fine, but Does it, do you, even an oil or honk has to be going, There has to be some real. I don't like how this is lining up, right?

Like those goofy all in all the time, nothing can go wrong. Oilers fans have to be thinking, oh, wish we'd have handled this differently. Yeah. It's been a, we were real close last year. And sitting these two guys down now. It's like we're going to make playoffs. Okay, we're on the road, whatever we're in.

Just get fucking healthy because the only way we're going to win is if you two donkeys can do it. Brad Marchand could make his Florida Panther debut Friday. He got traded. Do you remember? Trade deadline day. All the way out trade out March 7th. But he's been out since March 1st. Baker.

Upper body. Panthers have also been without Maddie Kachuk. He's got a lower body injury. Got himself heard of the Four Nations. That'll happen. So, uh, Marshan. in Panthers colors could happen as soon as tomorrow. Dirtbag.

He's going to love it in Florida. He's going to love it down there. He's going to stay there and play for cheap. Well, he's not going back to Boston, it would seem. That went south fast. As soon as, who was the captain before? Charo. Berseron.

As soon as Berseron kind of started to get out of there, it was like, ooh, this, this house is crumbling. seeing that video when all the Marchand stuff was going down when they had the best team in hockey in the regular season and that got bounced and that kind of and remember Bergeron played that stupid game and Montreal hurt his back? Yeah. And then when they're done the handshake line

and they're hugging at the bench and it's like your career is over. This season should have ended into Stanley Cup and we're done in round one. We're like we're not, we're never playing together again. This blows. this is the worst possible end to this whole thing. So yeah, and then in the Atlantic, it's a dog fight. It's a dog fight.

Toronto, Florida, Tampa Bay, all right there. Knuck and knock, nick and nick. And two out of those three teams don't give a damn where they end up, probably. Probably not. They prefer to be at home, but they're going to be, like, Toronto's the only one that probably has some, I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Well, you wouldn't want to play one of the other two. please let me finish so I can get Montreal or Ottawa or whoever it ends up being.

It has to be those two teams, please. Yeah. And Toronto. Please let it be Toronto and Montreal or Ottawa. Montreal or Ottawa and then the Florida teams do their thing. That's a great. Feels like it's too much to ask. Life's been good to us, Dean.

So why would we expect? Yeah. That's true. Jack's got his gear on that can only mean one thing the Pittsburgh pirates haven't lost multiple games yet undefeated undefeated

opening day 14 games on the go today what do you have every team play on opening well they started in was Japan they started in the thing so all they started already yeah there they are that's great the trouts maybe it's the trouts

maybe it's the trouts year the trouts are terrible Trouts have never been No one they always go and sign these guys It's funny You feel bad for trout yeah You talk about well Guys gotta get out of there and go win

Mike trout might be that guy Trout trout Trout is a little trout Yeah The Blue Jays host the Baltimore Trashbirds As Ryan would say if he were here It's Jose Burrios

I would love to have some Pinder Blue Jay honking Yeah right It would be great right now to hear hear how unbelievable this team, the potential they have. Well, and remember these early season games. Now, do they matter or they don't matter? I don't think they do.

Okay. I'm still unclear as to when they matter. Because I was reading Shy Davides article at Sportsnet, and he said he's gone to fan graphs or whatever, and looking at the projections, the Jays played 29 of their first 32 games against legit contenders with projected records above 500. Well, at least they don't matter. Orioles, Red Sox twice. Then it's the Mets, Yankees, Astros, Mariners, and Braves. Now, I didn't dig too, but I do think games in March and April do count towards your end

of season record. So shy was saying, a good start here. Can you go 500? Well, Pender would argue that. Yeah. He didn't debate you on that point about your statement about mattering. Probably. Meanwhile, ESPN's Buster Old has reported that the Jays have made another offer to Vlad Guerrero. Really? Trying to get it. Want to get it done?

Old Shapiro said, we're going to get this signed. We're going to get an extension. That's that he's manifesting positivity. He is. Yeah. I guarantee you it could get done.

Yeah. Real. Like that. Yeah. There's probably a number that gets it done. Well, and he'll sign and you just walk in. Now that's your number.

Yeah. Done. However. only also only says as well a gap still remains I hate gaps you can't jump over him can't do it mind the gap and our buddy Mike Soroka heading into the season he's got one of the top five small he's got us he's got the fifth spot looks like in the rotation for the Washington nationals he's 27 has had multiple setbacks

and gut wrenching injuries but this is his you get it back back on track you're manifest in a great season great season for for our buddy Mike Michael Soroka of the Washington Nationals. That's what we should do this year. Go and see our, we keep saying that. And of course, the problem,

Pinder's really gotten into way of us being buddies with Soroka, though. Because any time that Soroka's name is mentioned, yeah, he jumps in front of it. Oh yeah, we're best friends.

Guys are like, no, I want to hang out. Yeah, yeah, that's all that goes. So are we excited for baseball? Is it nice to have that on as well?

sure do you watch it or pay any attention i got a yankees hat on here i was going to say i won't lie to you this whole soto thing really really took the starch out of out of things and then that's yankees got two starters hurt cole and yeah it's but they're projected there's a lot of the love projection gonna win the al east they aren't terrible right they're not terrible it would be a lot better if they had that guy. What happened there? He was so good.

He hates Judge. I heard they. Judge seems like a guy that's hateable for sure. Yeah, a hot feud. How of a difference difference do you think he is? He's like the Russell Wilson of baseball. Oh, Judge?

Yeah. Oh, shucks guys. Hey, hold. Hey, let me cook. Other than the same city, they can hang out. Yeah. Judge B. I saw somebody yesterday in New York, one of the reporters,

like, I would rather him play for the Mets or the Yankees than play for the Giants. This is friggin terrible. Nope. Safeway, my NHL picks. It's your chance to win some big prizes, like a trip for four to the season opener. NHL season opener of your choice for the 25, 26 season. It's Thursday, which means a new slate of games opens up. You've got from now until next Wednesday.

I think they get this victory Who did Montreal get the St. Louis Louis right? The Blues beat the crap out of them the other night So Montreal over Philly tonight Friday Panthers at Utah Maybe it's the Marshan game Vegas versus Chicago give you the nights

also give me the nights against the Preds and then Dallas against Seattle. So my whole five, it's by Saturday night, I'll know how I'm doing. It should be easy for you, right? Like this is your profession. I'm so smart. Yeah.

Yeah. Talk about hockey every day to pick only five games. Do you like my picks? What do you think? Yeah. Thanks. Right, Jack? I wouldn't argue anything.

Okay. Solidarity. I wonder what Pinder would think. he wouldn't offer he wouldn't even offer an opinion yeah I have an idea of what he would think but you know

hey get the app Safeway app super easy to do then you link your your scene account over to it get those points going right in there Jack can go to the

when he goes to the theater to pick up just popcorn and not stay for the movie sounds good today Anna can you use your precipitation that way yeah it's the Safeway my NHL picks contest very little time left very because the season's over in

month less than three weeks four call it four okay we got that weird LA game I guess yeah yeah I'm gonna have a sip of coffee do it trouble is there somebody's insane Nashville there are some of these teams that aren't good but they have no that's the scary part right now picking teams because Like Buffalo screwed me. Nashville got me once. They overlook those teams that are supposed to not try. And those other teams,

I can tell you what one of the best games I ever played in the regular season was our final game. Maybe, yeah, was our final game. I forget what year it was in Buffalo. And we weren't making the playoffs. So we were in Montreal. I was very loose.

Yeah. I did a spinorama just inside our blue line. I beat a guy. I'm like, right? Like, yeah, there is no pressure here. Let's play. You've got your end of season. Okay, so clean out the lockers on the 18th.

And then maybe there will be meetings on the 19th. By the 20th, I can for sure be in Turks. Wherever. Yeah. I'll be one of those cabins over top of the water with the glass floor watching handsome sharks. That's right. Yeah, that's true. Maybe I should.

We didn't really think of that. I just thought what which teams say. You just don't know that's the problem is picking those games. They're hard to. I'm not going to doubt myself though. I'm going to stay true to myself. That's what you do. We gave, we had a winner earlier this

week with the hearing loss clinic. It was a Raspas Anderson jersey and a nice little bottle of wine and it was donated by the good people namely old Trave, Rhodesy and Sabrina over at the hearing loss clinic. But they they love to give back. They love to, they're big on social media,

getting people engaged and involved, and they are doing it again. How would you like one of these? McKenzie Weger jersey. Oh, take a look. See, Wigs. Look at that. Number 52.

You don't get the earhole cans. I think so, do you? No, not sure why it's her. Looks good. Just making sure I wondered if they threw that in, No, you don't get the headphones. You do get the wine and the jersey. What a night.

What a night. Another giveaway for you. It is courtesy of the hearing loss clinic to get involved. Go on Instagram. You got to be following us at Flames Nation. Probably follow Barnburner too, right? Follow the Barnburner account. Oh, yeah.

Get in there. Definitely hearing loss. All the details, how to enter will be on our social media. I like that one. Oh, you said the other day, that's your one. That's what I'm going to get. Yeah, it was the start of last season, I think it was. And I saw a lasty,

Weger jersey. I nearly pulled my wallet out. Jeez, that thing looks, because like you see it on TV or yeah, they're wearing it. But then when you see them, and even these in real, real life in front of you, looks so good when they got the names,

the name. bars and the numbers on them so that one could be yours today is thursday well you know monday tuesday middle of next week summer we're going to give you some time to get some entries in for that one there let's call it wednesday let's do wednesday wednesday love that's a way to take control jack love it thank you hearing loss and while you're at it go to hearingloss dot ca book yourself in i feel like i need to go down side lots of upside lots of upside yeah i like i like it when guys just keep their number? Because that's probably a training camp number.

I would imagine. I could go back and check. Well, no. Who else where's 52? Where the hell did Weger even come from? He's Canadian, right? Ontario guy. Ottawa? Right?

I think he's from Ottawa. He kind of showed up on the scene. He's in Florida, didn't he? And obviously you're like, well, it's a, it's a unique name. So yeah, I remember him showing up to Florida's Weeger 52. Who is this plug?

how bad are the Panthers? They're so awful. These guys are terrible. Stanley Cup, Uighur, Flan's, one of Flan's best players. Shoveler's got picks. What? Oh, safe wood?

Nice. So there you go. Hearingloss.orgia, truly, it is one of those things we've talked about. And we are both, what would you say? Customers, clients, we are patients at the hearing loss clinic. Patience would be problem. we are patience with five locations in Calgary, five in BC, book yourself in, do yourself a solid.

Maybe when it's not raining. Maybe. Maybe. So some things that are going on, the candy bracket continues for handsome Dan's vacation rentals and crystal waters plumbing and heating. We haven't focused on it a ton this week. I kind of feel bad.

let's get after it here because the voting ends tomorrow morning mid show around 11 11 o'clock the votes will come to a close I don't know

I feel like if we talk about it it kind of what are you talking about everyone's going to have their own opinion if you're listening to us you're an idiot so on anything else you're not worried about it but this you are if you ask and I know you were

for sure asking me my thoughts I'll start at the 2-7. I feel like this is fuzzy peaches all the way. I was so pissed off at that showboat from Toronto yesterday and saying the fuzzy peaches are just peaches. No, noodles. Get your head out of your hoop. They're fuzzy peaches and they're delicious.

Now, for me, if there is a bowl of both, I'm going for the sour-soothers first. But I do respect the power of the peach. three versus six gummy bears sour patch kids it's so hard to tell because it's a it's a sour versus a complete polar opposites almost you will not mistake a gummy bear for a sour patch kid and really the that's the loan you could i guess argue if the peaches get through there's kind of a sour but i wouldn't no peaches are and sour. The sweet candies have

really it's paved the way is paved for them. I think so. That's, I mean, do kids like gummy bears, Jack? I mean,

are people, are people buying gummy bears still? If you sent money, if you gave a kid a quarter, I'm buying the sour patch kids way before gummy bears. My kids are too. It's kind of what I think.

But when they get the gummy bear, they're firing it in. They're not. Yeah. Stomping on it. ground and saying get this garbage out of here in the one eight i feel it's cola bottles i'll tell you what you can eliminate that whole bracket i'm with jack this is terrible the one eight well you tasted it the other day no the fact i'm with the people from the last time the cola one not a noodle said

it's lazy it was a cinderella story it's lazy i think that the one seed advances again they they have the shark, the blue whales. I don't know if you're talking. I think you're being emotional. Well, I think if you had both, I think those blue whales are kind of, because they've got, you've got the dorsal fin.

I can say this. And the tips of the tails and they get a little hard, right? Those are the first. They're kind of really turn rock hard. It's like, these things are shit. I tried both of those the other day, spit them both out. Might speak to my love for candy, but. You're really not the guy.

Boy, what if we were talking about pies? Oh, we're gonna, we're salty meats. We're not stopping with this. And then the four, five coin flip. Yeah. 100% coin flip. Jack, you've, you have, you're privy to the numbers, the voting. I've got all the data.

Is there anything that, if you were to kind of glean from it? Is there any election interference? Yeah, is there any, is anyone? Which match. you guys think is the closest. Well, you can't tell us. I won't tell you. I just want you to guess.

I don't want to say anything too much because I have everything. If I had to guess, I think it's the four or five. I bet I think it's a close. I'll go two seven. Fuzzies and Sowers. Is there one? Is there a lopsided one and is there one that's super close? There's one very lopsided.

Two are starting to get away and one is very, very close. Wow. Well, tell us because we need to tell you. I can't tell you no. Why? You can't. How does that? It's the mystery.

Oh. So one is very close. Two are getting away and one is lopsided. Which one is lopsided? Gosh. Nibs. Actually, I think it's the Skittles. I think the Skittles are kicking the shit on the Swedish.

Do you really? I think it's a soft spot in everyone's heart, rightfully or wrongfully. And you can, even without the soft spot, it might have been anyway. It might have been in any way. I am going to say that the lopside, the runaway is the peaches over the soothers. That's going to be my, that's my guess.

I can't wait for tomorrow now. I just think that the people that like sour, like sour and they will vote sour against the rest. You may be right, but I don't know. Those damn peaches. Woo! Got any? Yeah. You want some?

Yes. Really? I have replaced faucets. So I've got one and I was considering now, this is a project. Do I step up to the plate and waste two days trying to figure it out? and potential ruin? Or do I call crystal water?

Well, in this case, I would say call crystal waters. What's the, like how, it's a leak where? What do we put on my, the boy's bathroom, the tub in there, the shower. And I'm never in there. So I don't notice it once every six months. So I go in there and flush the toilet because it's a very hard to flush the toilet. It is. Yeah.

We're just hanging. Should we have the approach of getting pender as piled up as possible or not? That's, I mean. Or do we have any control? You have no control. And that kind of goes without saying.

It's bound to have. happen and we're thinking that um uh how would you describe it jack you're kind of plotting yeah it's been a process i don't really here's the thing we had some stuff in year one and it was okay and then the next round of stuff we we weren't happy with it so we just stopped selling it because we didn't want people to be paying money for stuff quality we're Trying to provide some quality. Yeah. And it was actually at Richmond.

Somebody came up and said, hey, the shirt, yeah, it's kind of, kind of thin the materials. Like, well, yeah, we, we're not, we're not selling those anymore. So we're really trying to find it's, there's, we want it to look good. And we want the quality to be good, which, and we're making it out to be the most impossible of tasks. Yeah, no one else sells merchandise. No one does hoodies or shirts or hats. no one does it no other business it's cutting edge ideas so i mean it's just it's taken a little longer than we'd like but if you're going to shoot a rocket into space yeah but there's been

musk must built a rocket ship and rescued people that's right yeah from the space station yeah you guys got any hats well see here's the thing. We got some free shit over there if you want. No, I mean, it was talked about again yesterday. Yeah. We'll get there. We just want to do it right.

You know what? I would say it's kind of a front burner issue. Not a barn burner. Mid burner. It's a mid burner. We need to be, oh, there's another thing we got to do as well by Friday, I guess by Friday. That's front burner.

We as in on the show, we or as in separately together. Right. Off show, but about the show. I'll tell you. That's not bad. No, it's... That's your opinion. No, it's cool.

All right. Could be big. Yeah. Could be real big. So anyway, yeah. I've always wanted to be big time. Yep. Me too.

Ken, we're on it. Quit yelling. Okay, Ken. For Christ, sakes, geez. Got it. Woof. Well, that'll do it.

Snap our fingers and poof, it's here. I've got After Burner tonight with someone. Lucky you. I'll do it for it with you if you want. You don't want to do it. I don't at all. Then tomorrow we'll have dregs.

and I don't care. Okay. The final four is going on. And if you were in America doing sports show and you did not make mention of the actual tournament, of the basketball event taking place, you are fired. Yeah,

probably. We have not mentioned one of the biggest sporting events in North America. Is it in the final four already? No. Oh, I mean, we're into it. But regardless,

like, We've never, we didn't even say Gonzaga won. Like, yeah. Well, that, I mean, that's our timing. Yeah, that's our timing. We knew four games tonight. But it's time to talk brackets. We'll be ready.

So yeah, that'll be, uh, hey, I know it's kind of spitting outside. Be careful. Get straight home, okay? Stay safe. Stay safe. Stay safe. We'll be doing anything. See you, buddies.
