Starting point is 00:00:00 We are up and rolling here on Thursday edition of Barnburner in the Barnburner Studios alongside Ryan Pinder. It's Boomer. And there in, there's the Redster. The Redster. Yeah, there he is. Sitting in his kitchen, ready for a game day edition of the program. Hey, where are the goggles?
Starting point is 00:00:38 I can't find the face shades. Face shades. You've been on fire. I don't want you switching your underwear. You're not allowed to shower. Same socks. Keep those goggles on. My hair all.
Starting point is 00:00:49 I got something going on there. Calick, huh? When's the last shower? Not that long ago. That's very big. 24 for sure. Really? That's good then.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Because I was going to say that doesn't look like got out of the shower an hour ago kind of a thing. Even with the time change. It wasn't this morning. Yeah. It wasn't this morning. So. Have you seen my kitchen yet?
Starting point is 00:01:17 Do you want to see it? Not really. Okay. What's this is it? That's fine, Pinder. I'll let's see what he did there. You weren't watching. He gave you the middle finger.
Starting point is 00:01:29 Yeah, he's sneaky. But he was pretending like he was rubbing his eye. Right, yeah, yeah. But he used his middle finger to do it. My eyes are tired because I don't have. No, no, show us your kitchen, right? That's my eye's not going. You know what I do?
Starting point is 00:01:40 You have a fridge? Because you're in a rental home. This isn't your normal place of, whatever you call it. Residents. Yeah, sure. Okay. Well, we'll pass through area there.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Are those some goblets? What's in the goblets? Port. Those goblets were handed out at the, the, uh, the, uh, Bills game. Oh, really? Really?
Starting point is 00:02:02 I thought you were going to say October Fest. I was, I was sitting with cheese. Yeah. James McKee. He's a big timer, so he sat in some fancy, sweetened. that right.
Starting point is 00:02:16 They gave us shitty plastic golf. That's fancy. That's fancy Buffalo Buffalo Dealing right there. They don't
Starting point is 00:02:25 they don't screw around. Now, I don't want to jump the gun too much on anything. Are you going to an NHL hockey
Starting point is 00:02:31 game tonight? I am not. Duh. I have to run a practice. Right. It would be a good game.
Starting point is 00:02:40 I could go. I could go. I could go across after. Could be game of the year. Yeah. Last year,
Starting point is 00:02:44 it was game of the year. I got a feeling Eichel's I got it No it wasn't Generette's game was game of the year
Starting point is 00:02:50 Okay so Yeah Ryan Could be game of the year Is what the man said But everyone that's listening And is going What the hell are they talking about? That's right
Starting point is 00:03:01 The Jack Attack is back Eichael returns to Buffalo Where last year he was very Butthurt Post game if you recall He had those Yep He was very
Starting point is 00:03:13 It was very harumph poor Jack wealthy Jack and his team's in first place in his division Jack was not going to forget how to play hockey and maybe
Starting point is 00:03:23 maybe somewhere along the way a little less about Jack we'll see maybe so he's had a lot of hardships the last two three years got to look inward
Starting point is 00:03:34 I got a feeling Jack's gonna Jack's gonna lay the boots to the old sabers tonight they're good I mean the sabers are kind of good too
Starting point is 00:03:44 it's interesting The shine is coming off the sabers. Okay. But again, it's a marathon. It's not a sprint. It's very early. It's very early. It's still time to have the shine come off and then shine them back up again.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Give them some faith, Rhett. Geez. Well, they played 13 games, 12 games. Come on. Dean, it's Buffalo. Buffalo, right? Yeah. It's Buffalo.
Starting point is 00:04:10 It's over a decade. At least, hey? At least a decade. Like Ryan Miller, the last time they were competitive postseason. And thanks to Rhett for that. You recall how they got Ryan Miller. And by the way, Ryan Miller inducted into the Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame last night. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:31 prestigious event. I believe you. 530 to 9.30. I was not invited. Oh. When did you get inducted? Did they know who's in town? Yeah, when was yours?
Starting point is 00:04:40 This is nonsense. Because not just Sabres? You're saying the city, the whole. whole city of Buffalo. That's not just a hockey thing. Be low, baby. Be low, baby. Right. Another very good hockey team, gentlemen, the Boston Bruins. Tonight's opponent for the Calgary Flames, it is a Flames game day. Get your helmet on.
Starting point is 00:05:01 They, uh, none of this is good. They were good two weeks ago before they got Marchand back. Bruins are 11 and 2 overall. They've won eight of their last nine. They're 7 and 0 at home. 5 and O versus the West. Their record of 11 and 2, that's 22 points, ties for the best start through 13 games that they've had in franchise history.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Franchise, been around for a while. Yeah, I was going to say, it's a bit of runway there. It's not quite Seattle's franchise records, right? They have allowed 13 goals in 13 games. Oh, dear. In the first and third periods combined. So if you can get them in the second, really strike.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Long change, get them. And while the flames are rolling out once again tonight, Nick D. Simone and Dennis Gilbert. The Buffalo duo. The Buffalo Boys. Yeah. Bruins are welcoming back, Charlie McAvoy.
Starting point is 00:05:59 McAvoy back, right? Tonight, just for you. He's on the chat. Yeah, he's not paying attention. If you're texting. If you're going, no, no, no. If you're going to beat the best, that's good.
Starting point is 00:06:12 If you're going to come out of a slump, you come out with a statement. Going to Boston, smack them around a little bit. This is a very different tone. Lutche and Vlodar. It is yesterday. It will be Dan Vlodar, the former Bruy and Nett. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying they will.
Starting point is 00:06:28 I'm saying if you're going to do it, this would be a nice statement game. This would be like one of those games in the NFL when you're doing point spread. I don't see any way that this is going to go. There's certain it. All, everything points this direction. Goes the other. So you got to go You got to go the other way.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Against the grain. Now, what was it paying? I know you were looking at the Betway numbers. Well, it was at plus 150 for a flames anytime wins. So that's the money line. That has jumped to plus 160 on the news that McAvoy's back, which broke at about an hour to 90 minutes before we started broadcasting here. Oh, he's not that.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Tower Studios. Come on. Well, he's not that bad. And it takes someone that's probably really not that good and puts them in the rafters. They're definitely a lot better with their best defensemen. His name is Charlie McAvoy. Because it was Mike Riley, right?
Starting point is 00:07:20 He was already on waivers once this year. I believe he was back on waivers to make room. He just makes too much money. You should be getting claimed. It's just salary stuff, right? Can we do the Michael Riley joke? Fire away. Matt Riley.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Well, I don't know how to do it. You guys are good. That was it. That was it. That was it. It's your volumes low. You need to do it again. Sorry, Mike Riley.
Starting point is 00:07:42 That's it. That's better. Got it that time. Mike. Mike Riley. Mac Riley. Macer Riley. Are it better? Yeah, it's not what it was, but it's good. Yeah. You got to want it. Go get it. Now, the Bruins 2 losses, interestingly. They hate Canadians. I think Jack Edwards comes in, gets them all talking about tea and the C and all that.
Starting point is 00:08:02 The senators, barf, they only have four wins, and the Leafs with their third string goaltender. Two nights ago, I think they held them like 20 shots. Got them right where they want them. Got them right where they want them. Not really that. There's more of the Pender Report. The flames have been dealt a very difficult hand, not just with injuries, not just with, you know, a lot of new faces, but schedule's been mean.
Starting point is 00:08:23 This will be the second of three games in a row against division leaders. Devils, Bruins, Jets. Bing, Bing, Bing. That's BS. That is pure BS. The fact that they got to place up the best teams in the league, I don't agree with that at all. Who's making this schedule?
Starting point is 00:08:41 What's going on here? You know, they better start putting some bad teams later in the schedule. They're getting all these good teams at the beginning, huh? And those bad teams better stay bad. Don't go getting good. Can't be getting good. Now you're bad for them. That's right.
Starting point is 00:08:54 You're bad when the Oilers played you. That's right. Damn schedule maker. I was like the COVID year. Ottawa bad against everybody else. Then you go beating the flames. Yeah. That's some bullshit.
Starting point is 00:09:07 That's some bullshit. The Bruins have, it's Lienus, right? Lienis, Olmar. Hellinus. 9 and 1. 2.05 goals against and a tidy 932 save. Very good. And then the sway dog came in and he was good. And then he got hurt. And in a night that Olmark was getting errated, I think it was the name, the penguins blew a huge lead to the Bruins.
Starting point is 00:09:31 They put Olmark back in because swimming got hurt. And they stormed back and won the game. And Olmer got to win anyway. Yeah. Fuck. We got us to watch it. Look, there's so street burger. I'm good till December 1. And if you want to call things down for the holidays, I don't do it. It's not December 1. I got a bit of a...
Starting point is 00:09:48 We may have to pivot. We'll cut the check and we'll do something else. It's for the fucking kids. Come on. No? Hopefully there's no kids in the car when somebody's listening to this thing. Truck. Yeah, no kidding.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Ruins have the number one penalty kill in the league. They've allowed three... Well, three power play goals against. 45 tries. And they haven't just played Columbus the whole? season because we talked about they didn't have a power play goal the last time we talked about Columbus three that's it three and adding maccoy to that first i sound more hopeful than you you do but you were they were being ignorant yesterday you were being you were poopy pants you had
Starting point is 00:10:33 poop in your pants i liked it he was great again and i think a lot of what ret said absolutely has some truth to it it's just we got to see this how this plays out it's 12 games right validity that's right there's some validity there. It's not. Now, you did some stone, some homework. That's Pinder Report? Pinder Report will get into it. Like 12 games is certainly not nothing.
Starting point is 00:10:56 And we're getting real close to that American Thanksgiving. Like, oh, crap. But there's a lot of teams on November 10th a year ago that were in the playoffs that, well, I'm going to use the jar again. They stunk. So we'll just, we'll see. We got a lot of play out. And look, they've had a tough schedule and they're missing three of their
Starting point is 00:11:16 regular sixth defenseman and Hubertos now out. Like this is, I don't know that I'd expect a team missing those kinds of parts and talent in a tough portion of their schedule to just be rolling. But it's also other things. Like to Rett's points,
Starting point is 00:11:31 like there's a lot that looks a little odd the way they play. It doesn't look like Daryl. It feels like the coach is overstirring. They don't look comfortable with leads in the third like they did in years past. New guys haven't really got fully acclimatized yet. So I understand there's a lot of,
Starting point is 00:11:46 lot of, uh, concern and trepidation. You okay there? Kazunate. They're coming in force. Who's going down today? He's going down for sure. You have a, you have a mute button. I don't have a mute button. He's trying so hard not to make this a four pack. Every time he sneezed once today, he sneezed four times. All I have is this. That's what I could do. I could just cover the mic. I was trying to get, uh, that's like your truck from the garage. I was trying to send a smoke signal to Prince of it. He wasn't, uh, he wasn't, because the mute buttons all the way at another table across the room. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:20 I was fine and then all of a sudden, I'm not sure what it was, but it was like, Kapi, Kapo, Kapai, Kabo! So yeah, if it comes, it's... Are you allergic to snow? I don't know what I'm allergic to. Before we go any further, Tower Cries or Studios. How's your rig?
Starting point is 00:12:38 Oh, man. I'm getting noticed out there. I've got people giving me the wave. I'm seeing the hashtag Nation truck out there on the interwe. I got the dad's pointing to their sons, be like, that's the one right there. Like, yep, school drop off is a hit. My kids want to get there early
Starting point is 00:12:54 and just stand by the car to talk to their friends. I was going to ask. This is our new truck. It's cool. I was going to ask how that goes over when you wheel up to the school. Yeah. And they hop out.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Do they need like a step ladder to get out of that thing? Yeah. You need the ledge thing. Like, I'm not short and I need that. The step side, yeah. The step side is like, yeah, absolutely. It's like getting into a boat.
Starting point is 00:13:17 You need the, step for sure. Yeah, you're not, you're not just going to quietly fit in with that big boy. So, uh, one of my turds, uh, Kaczynski, he's like, we have to wait until my teacher comes out because I told her she has to see the truck. Like he's not telling everyone. I'm like, it's minus 20. We're not waiting half an hour for your teacher to come outside to see the truck. We're going to drive this for like years, you know? This isn't a one week special. I went by, uh, tower because they, The splash pads, the all season or the winter time. Four mats.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Four mats. Had to pick those up. And they got some, they're getting some feedback in social media. People are seeing what's going on. So that's awesome. Tower Kreiser Studios from the seventh to the 12th, the guys over at Tower, guys and girls, 100 bucks from every car deal that they make will go towards the Veterans Food Bank. And as well, if you want to, if you want to donate to the Veterans Food Bank and you're not,
Starting point is 00:14:14 they're taking, just drive up to the front door. They're coming out there, grabbing bags of groceries. They've got the box set up there. They've been emptying it throughout the day. Check out that Jeep, too. That's there for a couple days still. And they brought in that old war Jeep. It's in the showroom.
Starting point is 00:14:26 It is a, it's a cool thing to check out as well. There's not many of those around. That was like, whoa, okay. Yeah. Take a look. Man, there it is. It's just me or those tires remind you a black licorice. Like, it's not the same as tires.
Starting point is 00:14:42 I don't know what do you get through with those tires? If you're hungry, do you eat one? I don't know. I was going to, now again, this is, I don't want to do this because Rhett's accusing me of being negative. He's the positive guy and I don't want to necessarily do it. But I'm going to, let's do an exercise. And it's, you decide if it's positive or negative. I'm not, I'm not leading you in any direction.
Starting point is 00:15:09 It's just the facts are what they are. Do you have a writing apparatus, Rhett, a pen of some sort? Apparatus. Some instrument that you can use. A pencil just over there. Can you get a piece of paper as well? Something to write on. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Okay, there he goes. Watch your headphones. They're going to go flying off your head. So what I want to do, being that this is the whatever of November, the 10th. And you mentioned American Thanksgiving. Statistically, unofficially, but statistically has shown that November,
Starting point is 00:15:48 that late November, American Thanksgiving. If you are out of a playoff spot by then, tough time getting back in. If you're in, better shape. You're on the other side of that. That's good news, obviously. So what I want to do, Retro, I'm going to give you the remaining games for the flames in the month of November.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Oh boy, I don't like the sounds of this. And let's just go wins or losses. So coming into tonight's game, they are 5, 5, and 2. 5. Hunt. Okay. Tonight, the Boston Bruins final of a three-game road trip. Win or loss? At Boston.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Yeah, at Boston. It's going to take a while. I was going to say there's a few of these games. We don't... If you say loss, it doesn't make you bad. I know you're really trying to... You can say one point. I don't know. You're trying to fight the good fight, but...
Starting point is 00:16:46 I am trying to fight the good fight. I know you are. Well, Boston's a better team. It's a loss. Okay. Ryan? I want to go to the one point variety. I think it's a heroic three-point road trip with,
Starting point is 00:16:57 or two-point road trip with two overtimes. Saturday night, home versus Winnipeg. Oh, first game back, Redd. First place, Jets. Win. So this is, I want you to write these down. I've got Rets and, do you?
Starting point is 00:17:16 Okay. It's easier, I think, when you kind of look at it and you see what you've got. I'll say loss. So I have to write the names of the teams or can I just make a win-loss column? You can, right? I'm giving you. that. I think it's part of when you make that decision on a winner loss,
Starting point is 00:17:30 the opponent. I'm keeping track of his stuff. The Los Angeles Kings at the dome. They're home for a quick two- two-banger. Win. I got a win too. All right. Then it's old team. Chris Sutter's going to be fired up. Back on the road
Starting point is 00:17:47 for six at Tampa. They're feeling good going to Florida. You get the sunshine, Dean, the vitamin D, the hurricane will be gone by then. They're going on a three-game win streak. Win. I'll get more than Tampa. I mean,
Starting point is 00:18:08 Edmonton beat Tampa. They can't be that good. Okay, so. Jack Campbell beat Tampa. There you go. Two nights later at the Florida Panthers. This is the Chuckie Bowl, by the way. Extra spicy.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Yeah, he'll be wound up. Maybe Herbert all will be back by then. I would hope so. Is it a back-to-back? No, it's not a back-to-back. It's the first time it's not a back-to-back in Florida in like a billion years. Yeah, 17th of Tampa, 19th at Florida.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Little time off in FLA. No, for sure go out and get smashed. So a loss. Of all the guys to suggest that. Like, this is a hungover hall of famer on the show with us. Here's what you, this is what you're getting wrong, Pender. I'm all four of them going out and doing this stuff. But the problem is the new generation.
Starting point is 00:19:00 old man talking they can't show up and play they just went on a six game losing street because i got drunk for halloween whoa are you almost over your hangover come on fellows so you've always been a proponent of having the bash of getting off the rails i thought it was to turn things around in the win loss column it's just what it's just a team builder is that all it's for what he's saying is these guys are soft now they can't do it and that's how you used to fix it but they're all Nancy's now. That's how you do it. You'd get back on,
Starting point is 00:19:33 you'd get off the Schneide with a rip snorter. I recall like four years ago, the Oilers were in a serious trough and Comey got on Twitter. He's like, these boys need to fire it up in Montreal before the halves. Mandatory team banger will come out of this tailspin.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Like it's one of those sort of things, right? You'd come me would have got along. That still can play true when you're on a bad bent or on a bad streak in the game. So we can still get to that point. They maybe should have went out last night. Then guaranteed win. We're really kind of tiptoeing around this.
Starting point is 00:20:05 So Florida, you got the loss. I'll give them another overtime point. Matthew Kuchukh, overtime winner rips their heart out. All right. From Florida, off day, then into Philadelphia to play the Flyers. Oh, they beat Philly. Win. Two days later at Pittsburgh.
Starting point is 00:20:21 They handle Pittsburgh nicely. Pittsburgh's been off a bit. You got a loss to Pittsburgh? I'll give them away. Yeah. Okay. Then two days later, Washington. Loss.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Loss. And then the next day, and I don't have here start time. It's back to back to close the roadie, right? Yeah. At Carolina. I just wonder if that's one of those weird 1 p.m. And then they get on the plane after, but whatever. It may not, yeah, it may not matter with Carolina.
Starting point is 00:20:53 So that takes you to, sorry, so then they come home, and the final game of the month, the Florida Panthers. Six game, Roady. At home. First game back at home against Florida, who they would have seen the week prior. They win at home. The crowd is upside down.
Starting point is 00:21:12 That's an electric barn for Chuckie return. They will win one of the Florida games. So you've got to give them this one then. Okay. So Rhett has them at five and five in those ten games you laid out. I've got them at five. three and two. So to Retz math, 10, 10, and two is where they'll be by months end.
Starting point is 00:21:37 And without having the crystal ball, I guess the question is, where does that put you in the division? Where does that put you in the conference? And are you on the right side of that in or out playoff line and that measurement that we use that some people use anyway, if you're in or out by American Thanksgiving, you learn a lot. Yeah, and you know what? Like if you're a point out of a wild card,
Starting point is 00:22:01 I don't think it's, but Elliot always talks about if you're like more than four back or whatever. Like you got to be in the mix at that point, I think is generally the rule of thumb. It isn't a hard, while you were one point out. You're just as screwed as everyone. Well, no.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I mean, but, but yeah, like they've got a tough schedule to get to American Thanksgiving. They do. And they've had a really tough schedule to this point. And even with my math or win loss, if I am correct, I think that's right where they'll be within striking distance, if not. I was going to say, because you look back, sorry,
Starting point is 00:22:35 you look back at this season, I don't know that you had them beating Vegas or Colorado. Carolina's really good right there. Edmonton and Edmonton. Didn't see them losing two. Seattle, Buffalo, Nashville, perhaps. Certainly when Nashville came through, the state that they were in when they came through.
Starting point is 00:22:50 So where they're, you are what your record says, you are 5, 5 and 2, but it is interesting to look at the way that they got to that 5, 5. And we don't know where they're going to be health-wise. You like them a whole lot more with Chris Tannav in the lineup. How have they been since he left? They've lost all four. And it's not obviously everything.
Starting point is 00:23:07 The Rett told me the other day the Tenev's no big deal. I think what Rett's saying is that if Tannov doesn't mean you win everything, but it's a lot more Nikita Zedorov, and then it means someone that's in the rafters comes down and plays rather than being in the rafters. It's sort of the trickle-down. It affects two pairs. Five and three with Tanev in the lineup, O2 and two without him.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Well, I think that Pender is correct. That is what I said about TANF, and it was in reference to a specific loss. He wasn't the difference in that winning loss. I'm trying to. Long term, it's better to have him in. The other thing we need to think about is who's going to catch him? In the standings?
Starting point is 00:23:50 Anaheim, San Jose, Vancouver, Nashville. Well, yeah, they're one spot out of a wild card. They're tied for the second wild card right now. Arizona? that. Okay, well, whatever. My point, I think you get my point,
Starting point is 00:24:02 right? Totally. Who's climbing the ladder? I don't see anyone behind them climbing the ladder. Over the next. Like, St. Louis is the very basement, and I would see them getting better.
Starting point is 00:24:13 That's a long way for them to go. But Anaheim, San Jose, Vancouver, Nashville, Arizona, Chicago are the teams behind Calgary and above St. Louis? Are any of those teams that scream playoffs? No. Could there be one? Maybe Vancouver gets their shit together,
Starting point is 00:24:27 but like, Nashville, it feels like just another year older. I don't know. I wonder. And to be fair, Seattle's still above the standings. Do you think they can catch Seattle? Well, yeah. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:42 And it sounds like a homer thing, but I just, I'll say it again. I just don't think they're, in a way I feel like they're not, they're not the team that we've been watching. But I was going to say this, wipe out your memory. Yep. Take everything out. Yep. Up until.
Starting point is 00:24:57 I'm good at that, Dean. Yeah. Can Cessions help? With how they've been playing, if you only watched the last three nights, and yeah, they're 0-1 and 2 or whatever it is. But if the efforts against New Jersey, the Islanders, and the Devils, would you be really unhappy with what you've seen? You'd be disappointed at the collapses, but generally speaking, you've controlled the play in all three of those games.
Starting point is 00:25:21 I think you'd be happy. And I think... Points in two of the three. Yeah. Well, you could have won't. I feel like you're turning down. Truly. I do look at this game a oddly, and I do wonder if they can find away tonight.
Starting point is 00:25:32 You rallied from down 3-1 in the first game, and you led in the others, if I'm correct, Devils, yeah. Well, five of their six losses, they had the leads. They led in all three games. And again, if you told me you had to do that with your ninth and tenth defensemen as a third pair, I'd say that's not the worst. You could expect worse than that. No Tannuf, no Shillington, no stone.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Melosh, too expensive to call up. It's that results versus process. It's exactly that. you think we know what the results are, but retro, where are they in your mind as far as the process? And we, there's individuals and Daryl never wants to talk about individuals. The lines are going to stay together. Rozichkus is, looks like he's going to be back with Lindholm and To Foley. Top line, Rosie. Dubay, Cadry and Coleman, Manjapani, Backlin, Lewis, and then the fourth line is the same. DeSimona Gilbert, as we mentioned both back in and Vladar and Net. Do you feel
Starting point is 00:26:27 watching these last few games, or even though? ones, the Islanders and Devils on this road trip because it was about do they need to get away from home? Take those two games where do you feel like their overall game is at? The last two games the process has been
Starting point is 00:26:43 no issues at all. No problem. But the results are clearly not there. Yep. Even if you get that impenders, right? You get that point against Jersey even in a tie, even if you lose an overtime. And now you have a chance It's a tough, obviously Boston's good, but if you win, you got four out of six on the road.
Starting point is 00:27:04 That's a nice road trick. If you get the win, you're 500 on the road. That's what everybody's asking for. If they come up with three points somehow, some way with what they're dealing with right now. Yeah. Their first periods were tremendous. And the first periods have been a big issue at the end of that homestand. So that's not an issue.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Apparently. Apparently. All right. All right. We have tickets to give away. I'm going to bring in Princey. we've been with our partners, Mad Rose Pub, giving tickets away all season long.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And tonight was one of the nights we're, or I guess coming up, but we are going to be given away tickets today for the game in two nights' time against Winnipeg, that first game back home. And we get you on social media. You got to tag a couple people and get Mad Rose into your followers and all that.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Flooding the mentions yesterday. I can't look at my phone. The buzzing people trying to get free tickets. Business is picking up. So a $50 gift card and a pair of tickets to the Jets game on the line here. Prince don't tell us you won or not. Oh yeah, I'm looking at right now.
Starting point is 00:28:04 This happens every single time we do this. I get a DM from the person as you're doing the segment. It's very strange. It's almost as though you told them they were winning tickets or you're in cahoots or something. I tell them, you know, right first thing in the morning, I tell them, get some time in, and then the minute the segment starts,
Starting point is 00:28:20 I get a DM from them. Like, no joke right now. I got the DM. So, Kegan, Bartram, is our winner today. Kiggs. Keegs? He mess? Is he one of our boys? I don't know. That was one of our interns. I recognize that. You guys recognize it. He was not one of our interns. He's one of your boys.
Starting point is 00:28:37 I mean, he probably would be better off than what they thought he was going to be. So, Kegan, he's going to go to the game Saturday, Winnipeg Jets. He's got to go to Madrose, pick up that $50 gift card. He had to get some clearance for his job. He was waiting. He left me hanging there a little bit, but he got it. He got Saturday night off. So he's... Figure it out, Kegan. He's going to go have a time. This is our boy. I do it. Don't be.
Starting point is 00:28:58 What? He did play by play for Mount Royal men's hockey and women's hockey. Uh-huh. And was an intern for us. He looks like, he was the skinny guy that looked like a roadie for Metallica. Remember? We had a few skinny, rough-looking donkeys come through there.
Starting point is 00:29:16 He's a beauty. Well, that's good. Well, that's good. Well, congrats to, to Kegan on that. See it, Denny's. And here's the thing. Plan, don't just walk in, hey, I'm here for my gift card.
Starting point is 00:29:25 Set it up. So when you're going, You're staying. You're having a couple beers. You're having something to eat some lunch, some dinner, make a night out of it. Do it. Figure it out. Madrose Pub.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Royal Oak, more than 20 beers on tap. They rotate. Rotate throughout the months and weeks and all of that. They have got a dynamite menu, some of the best pizza you're going to have in the city. Fresh dough and sauce made daily. Their pizzas are, they're renowned. And if you're a bit of a D-Gen, a drink special every day. There you have it.
Starting point is 00:29:57 15 Royal Vista Place. Madrose Pub. Next game, Chucky Bowl. The Chucky Bowl. Because they're going on the road here, obviously they got the Jets and Kings going to come back. November 29, a Thursday, I want to say.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Whoa. Chuckie Bowl. So I wonder, we may have to do something special with those days. We're going to give you some homework on that. We have to, beyond just tagging people, why don't you shoot a little video for us? Do something.
Starting point is 00:30:25 We've got to make some little spice here. want to go to Kachuk Bull. Good call. Yeah. Make you work for it. Who's fighting him, by the way? He's not going to fight. Because that's what, that's what, right?
Starting point is 00:30:36 That's what everybody wants to see. It was like when they would go to Cassian, oh, he's going to fight him. Finally did, but it took a lot. Took a lot. I think his old man had to sit him now. Let me ask you, Rhett. What's the mood towards him in the Flames locker room? You know how fans feel.
Starting point is 00:30:54 You'd probably know how the coach or the GM, well, coach, whatever, but the GM probably has a certain eye how do the guys in the room feel knowing that he wanted out that wow i think they probably don't give it down to be honest with you yeah right like it will be it the rally cry will be let's get uh show them and this and that but it down deep nobody's really whatever you're lucky bugger playing in florida well and here's the other thing though if you're a tax free if you're a team made his and you got along and it was fine, but maybe you're like, why isn't there more we?
Starting point is 00:31:33 Why is it always me with him? Like, you're probably not saying anything, but when you're on the ice and he's in the corner, now we're going to see who really didn't like, Chuckie. Because he's Keith in mindset, whereas Brady's Keith and body. It would be one of those things. It would be very difficult if you were going to,
Starting point is 00:31:52 if you had a bit of a beef. And like you say, you get into the corner, you're going to chirp him and say, See? So this is what you wanted, hey? Yeah. Careful what you wish for, Mr. 9.5 million for the rest of your life and living in Florida, driving Lamborghinis and stuff.
Starting point is 00:32:07 If the Zad Dog wants to break him through a paint of glass, I'd be down with that. Like Bill's Mafia style, just crashing right through. Yeah, it'd be all right. Let's do it. Be all right. Let's do the Pinder Report, shall we? Pinda Report is a presentation of Village Honda.
Starting point is 00:32:20 Come and see why Calgarians are making the trip to Village Honda, your dealership for life for life. It's hard to do. It's almost like the two legit to quit. Northwest Auto Mall. That's right. Reached out to Anthony yesterday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:37 We got something coming very quickly. Regarding. Can't say. Oh. You know, we've been talking about a little bit. We're going to do a bit of a pivot. We got something coming up. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:48 He wants in. I think he's going to be in. Awesome. Oh, he's going to be fired up. I know. 10 days from World Cup right now? Yeah. Just sweating.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Just flop sweat. If there's a sweaty guy at Village Honda, just leave him. Tommy's got 10 days to sleep because he's not going to sleep once that tournament starts. You see some of those kickoffs? 5 a.m.
Starting point is 00:33:07 For Village Honda. Here we go. It's the Pander Report. Calgary Flames in action tonight, 5, 5 and 2 through 12 games. Well, what's 5, 5 and 2? And what is 12 games? I mean, is 500 through 12 games
Starting point is 00:33:22 a death sentence? Are they screwed? Crunch some numbers this morning. on, okay, you know, the final four teams in the playoffs last year, East and West finalists, as well as the President's trophy winners, and also went and looked at the standings exactly a year ago through 12 games, essentially. It's not as indicting as it might feel like in Calgary. Maybe that's just the weight of expectation.
Starting point is 00:33:46 But let's have a look at, well, what the standings looks like a year ago, either that or the records of said contenders teams that we think, Oh, well, no one's worried there. They're obviously going to be just fine. I think you're going to want to do a restart. Restart. Just give it a reconnect there. Am I dead?
Starting point is 00:34:05 Just give it one of those things. There's some, well, it's cold outside, right? So there's some freezing. And I can never tell with Rhett because he's staring at his kitchen table. He's on his phone or he's on the chat there. There he is. I could ever tell if you're frozen or if you're deep in thought. I'm back.
Starting point is 00:34:20 You're back in the New York groove. Excuse me. Got your retro. You can hear us and everything's good. You all good? Okay. All good. I thought I was all screwed up.
Starting point is 00:34:31 12 games in 5, 5 and 2. Let's take a look. What does that mean? What do we got? 5.5 and 2 mean anything. I have numbers for you, my friends. In fact, I'll just read them if we can't pull them up. That's fine too.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Colorado won the cup last year. Good at hockey, right? Kail McCarer, Nathan McKinnon, all the stars. Cadre was there. La-di-da. They were 6-5-1 through 12 games last year. How does that make you feel, Rat? 6-5-1.
Starting point is 00:34:57 They basically won one of those overtime games. Now you're moving my cameras. Well, I'm trying to move yours. You're way off kilter. Just focus on your numbers. Tampa, Eastern Conference finalist last year. 6-3-3-5. Rangers, 6-3-3-3.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Oilers, very good, 9-2-1. So, whatever. Elsewhere, if you're worried about where things are at on November 10th, Don't be. Here's what we know last year on November 10th. San Jose, Anaheim, Columbus, New Jersey, Philly, and Winnipeg were all in playoff spots. None of them made it. Those were some bad hockey teams.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Philly was awful. Columbus was horrible. San Jose and Anaheim were dog shirt. Winnipeg tailed off. Only 85.4% of the season remains, right? You're very level-headed. I'm trying to be. When I hear irrational things, I would try to, no, it doesn't mean they're, they can't
Starting point is 00:35:53 miss. Of course they can't. Are there problems? Yes. But if you told me that they're 12 games in and they're missing the guys they're missing and they're 500, I'm not panicking. There we go. Look at that. It'd be nice. If you would not panic, Warner is what he's kind of, people come to you. He's not panicking today. Because you play and you're a hockey guru and a genius. And then when you're riffing on how the shouldn't assign this guy and you shouldn't assign that guy and you should have to this guy. I said to you, you don't marry someone
Starting point is 00:36:29 because you're scared, you're going to lose them. You're happy with that. Then you said you had to marry Goddrault by the first because you didn't want to lose them. That's what you said about Godreau, though. But you did say that don't marry him
Starting point is 00:36:41 about the Florida guys. If you do want to get a little worried, though, Boston tonight, tough opponent. Oh, pardon my words. Top spot in the Eastern Conference, you can go listen to the show. Still no Tanna, Stone, or Euberdo, or Shillington for them,
Starting point is 00:36:55 matter we know. Vladar will start. You shut out the Bruins 4-0 last year in Boston. He's 1 in 0 all time. He's batting 1,000 against the Bruins. There's your lineup for Boston. Notice anything different in there? Maybe the right side of the top pairing. There's Charlie McAvoy, some thought he wouldn't be back till well into December the new year. He back tonight. He's their best defenseman. Spent a lot of time next to Lindholm after they picked him up from Anaheim last year. Excellent pairing there.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Looks like they're separated at skate today, but they're better with them then with Odom, and the Bruins have been rolling. Pass to off the perfection line. They've got DeBrusk up there. And yeah, that's a scary looking lineup. And we know why they're good. They're good because they're very good and they're healthier than we thought they'd be. Also, on the flames and who they're playing, strength of schedule has been an absolute nightmare.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Nobody has played a tougher schedule than the flames have through 12 games, and it's not even close. Their opponents are prejudiced. to get to 98 points this year, almost closer to 99. The winning percentage at the time they've played their opponents, second highest in the NHL, five-on-five goal percentage, tops in the NHL. I knew it was coming. I knew he wouldn't be able to do it.
Starting point is 00:38:13 This, you stuck a bar right into fucking Warner spokes. He went right over the handlebars. That's so good. This shit that you're doing here, What's the winning percentage? Tell me what shit. I'm ready. All of this goals percentage and the tug.
Starting point is 00:38:30 So this is really simple. I don't want to confuse you. At five on five, their opponents this year are scoring 53.5% of the goals. That's a very strong number. The whole teams, where they were playing them and the winning percentage and strike the schedule
Starting point is 00:38:46 and projected points and all of that. The eye roll hit. I knew it was coming. I was locked right in. Retro, come on. point being they've played a tough schedule whether you believe in data or not those are all
Starting point is 00:38:58 those are real that's Pinder will give you honest real data data percentages numbers it's he's not lying about any of it I just don't know what it means that's that's honest and that's fair
Starting point is 00:39:13 it means they played really good hockey teams and to be fair we thought Seattle would suck they've been a lot better we thought Buffalo was a dormant they were a lot better when they rolled through Calgary Nashville kind of still sucks but that's really only the soft the opponent they played. Crazy. Buffalo.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Yeah. Okay. And, yeah, McAvoy's back. The Bruins were happy to throw out a hair flip giff as if to say,
Starting point is 00:39:35 yeah. Yeah, we back. We're in first, and we're getting bolstered with Marchand back and now MacAvoy tonight. Hey? Read their own press clippings,
Starting point is 00:39:43 Rhett. Getting all cocky. Hey, Red? Five o'clock puck drop. That's seven savers time, Red. I don't know if, can I go 24-hour
Starting point is 00:39:53 o'clock or is that too much for you? 1,700 savers time. Well, you know what? That'll be good for me because I could tape it and zip through the ads. Tape it. Tap it. VHS or beta? Flames or big dogs here?
Starting point is 00:40:09 Plus 150 before the McAvoy News now, plus 160 on Betway. And yeah, the Bruins are feeling good today. Feeling good. Can't talk about the NHL, though, mentioning the best goal that never counted in NHL history. Shall we take a look at Trevor Ziegress and the Anaheim ducks.
Starting point is 00:40:27 I mean, the play was offside when it started, but Zegroes doesn't know and he's still Michigan's this past. I think that's the nicest one we've seen. It's just so smooth and effortless. It's not like he's like, eh, straining. It's just, wow, that, he, why wouldn't you do that if you could do that? And rips it in there.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Totally, obviously, it doesn't happen by accident. But you wonder how far out from the net does his brain clicks I'm gonna well watch it again I think it gets on edge behind the net and that's where he's like oh yeah this is exactly what I do because a puck on edge he's scooping yeah
Starting point is 00:41:02 see how it's rolling there it's not flat she's like yoink see ya zing huh just after he's laying down on the ice doing yeah he's like that's Zegris don't take the bottom of the net you dummy that's the Warner
Starting point is 00:41:15 Zegers did the Michigan the Warner that's like Chris Russell look at that starfish in front of the net Nice goal. That's pretty great. Didn't count. Shame it didn't.
Starting point is 00:41:27 It would have hit my bet because it was a Minnesota regulation win and I needed that goal to hit the over. Son of them. Yeah. Big one in Buffalo tonight. Eichle Bowl last year. Remember it was tuck putting on a show. Peyton Krebs, I believe even chipped in as they beat the Vegas goal in nights in Eichol's return in a season that was lost for the golden nights. They missed the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:41:48 Very different story this year. Nights come in top of the Pacific Division. rolling and Eichols looked very good. Last year, fine, understanding he'd missed a ton of time. This year, back to, well, he's going to the All-Star game and he might be one of the best five senators in the league type status. What's the buzz over in Beelo? Or is it just all DeSimone and Gilbert talk?
Starting point is 00:42:11 Yeah, that's all the talk about junior savers playing tonight in Boston. Buffalo Junior Sabers and there's lots, yeah. I think people are still fairly bitter. They don't like that guy. Yeah. I think it was the further away we get from that, the more we just are like, yep, he hated the organization
Starting point is 00:42:30 and the organization hated him. It was bitter, bitter, anger, vindictive. Like, it was bad. You think that could Chuck pissed people off leaving Calgary. Like this is, it's 10 times. Yeah. Well, and infighting, and I don't like this.
Starting point is 00:42:49 coach, I like that. I don't worry much about Kachukuk on that front. So where do we fall in now? He's had the surgery. Controversial, whatever you want to call it. It was. Risky or whatever it is. But the recovery was seemed speedy and on schedule.
Starting point is 00:43:07 He seems to be just fine. Why then was Buffalo so reluctant? To screw him. Was it to screw him? But I'm saying is, was that just to make themselves give them. It was a big, it was a screw job. It was a big middle finger.
Starting point is 00:43:24 You've been such a CNX Tuesday. Yeah. You sit. We're not going to let you do that surgery. And I have, my dad buddy from grade one last year had the exact surgery. The exact same one. And I've talked to a medical rep that is very familiar with the procedure. It ain't controversial.
Starting point is 00:43:41 It just doesn't have a 15 year shelf life. Yeah, yeah. So if you're super conservative or you want to screw someone, you don't have it. but it's like it's not like woo risky he's going to die no it wasn't hard to research and find out that the surgery was really good yeah it's an improvement on what used to happen anyway it's a weird one for sure it's your franchise player it's not weird because you know what happens behind closed doors and stuff it's it's like my dad the first time he read the i was playing in florida and he's reading the newspaper and he's it's like gospel to him he thinks that
Starting point is 00:44:17 you know, if it's reported in the news, that must be the story. And it's like, well, that's not even remotely close to what was taking place. So we all know that. This would be, you think they sell out the building for Eichel? I know it hasn't been high tide for interest. No, they don't sell it the building because I actually just looked online because you can get tickets. Lots of tickets. Still tickets available.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Yeah. NFL, another scintillating primetime game of two shodd, football teams. They were, it was exciting one last week, for whatever it was. Was it, Philly Houston?
Starting point is 00:44:54 I mean, it was competitive. No, no, I mean, these two teams. Oh, okay, I thought you meant the
Starting point is 00:44:58 primetime game. That was a hell of a, it was not, it was not perfectly executed football. Yeah, no, don't take your helmet off. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:45:05 it's a run of prime time games that have disappointed, I see. Generally speaking, but this one does have a little zip to it because of how bad the NFC South is, everyone's still in it, and Panthers,
Starting point is 00:45:16 Falcons. Was that the game where we had the huge bomb that you love from PJ Walker, the missed extra point? Incredible catch. Wild finish in overtime. Takes his helmet off. They push the, you know, that's a penalty. That's unspoorily push it back. Whatever was 15 yards. Guy misses the extra point. They go to overtime. Incredible. It was awesome. I'm going to check that way for the latest. It's kind of dancing between two and a half and three points where Atlanta's favored in Carolina. Think about a neutral side. Are they six points better than Carolina? But Atlanta's past defense, not great. We'll see if PJ Walker is good enough to exploit that or not.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Phil. Phil Walker. Peanut butter jelly Walker. That's right. PJ Walker. I need to put my glasses on. And the line's still two and a half. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:46:01 That's tonight. And hey, Carolina, check out the Unis. You're going to like this. You remember the Marvel movie Black Panther? Yeah, yeah. This is the vibe they're given out with these, the Carolina jerseys at home tonight. Really?
Starting point is 00:46:14 Very sexy. Like black, black, black, black. black and then a little bit of that teal blue they got in the unit they always wore black not that much what do you think oh okay it's better it's kind of like the stamps on labor day when they went to their black you're like oh yeah that's just a little when you're dealing with teal there's only so much you can do yeah less is probably and less is that's all right I'm going to allow it Ryan yeah like it not bad okay very good and finally I know Rhett has been biting his tongue and really wanting to unleash on American politics.
Starting point is 00:46:48 So I've got a soundbite that you can react to, Rhett, if you're ready. And I don't, I just want your honest reaction. Okay, here we go. Look at this, very proper. We're getting a slight increase in the number of doses that we'll be getting to the state. They are, we're getting a slight increase
Starting point is 00:47:12 in the number of doses that we'll be getting to the state. They are, we're getting a, Just, excuse me, slide. Oh, my. Okay. That's got to be doctor. Everyone in the replies is saying that's got to be doctor.
Starting point is 00:47:27 But the guy who's video says it's not. It's not. Now, maybe it is. No way. The level of the. It feels louder. She doesn't get closer to the microphone. That's a, it stinks there.
Starting point is 00:47:41 I know that. But that's dubbed or not. You are like burying your nose in your, in your, the elbow, your sweater. See? And I didn't hear K.I. His name recently. What do we talk?
Starting point is 00:47:53 Like, no, it just gave you a chance to talk politics. I hope you all right with that. I really want to believe it's true. I do too. That's why I put it in.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I'm like, this is 90% for sure real. Thanks, Rhett. Yeah, got it. Let's go, American. Awesome. Team America.
Starting point is 00:48:09 No, it's not the flag. Can't you read it? No, we can't read shit. Let's go, Brandon. Dubinsky? Week, Kings? Yeah. Really good player.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Davidson? Yeah. All right. That's Pinder Report. I like Brandon Davidson. You're asking me? No, I did. I liked Brandon.
Starting point is 00:48:33 I thought he was a solid guy. Well, the guy you really liked, Rosie's top line, top peeps again tonight. So what do you expect? I don't mind seeing some of these guys with skill. But what's the, what's the, what's the way say about that? Is that in there?
Starting point is 00:48:48 And anytime goal for Rosie? Can dig that up for you. Two points. Two points. Jeez. Tuck it under your belt. Let's... Can I wrap this?
Starting point is 00:49:00 Yeah, you can read the text. All right, very good. Village Honda brings you the Pinder Report every Monday through Friday, your one-stop automotive destination in Calgary. Visit Village Honda in the Northwest Auto Mall, your dealership for life. They don't even know he's a human. That's insignificant. against the old Rosie is.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Oh, I really want that, uh, that belch to be real, but I just, too. I don't think it can be, like she did something, right?
Starting point is 00:49:27 Because she did excuse me. There might be a hiccup. Someone dubs over. It's just a, maybe it was just one of those, that's a serious belch. We're going to do Ask Brett coming up in, uh,
Starting point is 00:49:42 in a few minutes. Are you ready for it? Buckle up. Let's go. Yeah, you ready for it? Last Ask Red of the week. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Let's go. Let's do it. I'm not sure you're ready. I need your full attention. You've been going on, you've been in the chat, and you've been trying to suck up to viewers and listeners. Boom's creeping on it.
Starting point is 00:50:06 He's got the, he's reading the chat saying, what's right. Red knows what he's saying. Redd says it like it is. It's the people's channel. Hey? You're sucking up to the,
Starting point is 00:50:19 what? To the listeners and the viewers. I don't, I don't think that I am at all. No. No. It's a man of the people. He is a man of the people. I'd rather interact with them
Starting point is 00:50:33 with Pender talks and just listen to them. Well, that's the problem is because I want you to interact when I say something like, oh, Charlie McAvoy's back for the Bruins. You know, hey, here's McAvoy. He does these things well. I know when a player I played with Return to the lineup, we got a boost. But instead it's like, I like to marinate it for two hours
Starting point is 00:50:50 and then let it sit. You know what? He doesn't have his goggles on. I know. He's awful today. It's the last show of the day. He's been on fire for a week. He's going to lose him.
Starting point is 00:51:00 His mood has been so good. The shows have been awesome. Ever since he got that tongue-washing. I know he is. I said, we're going to... Poopy pants. Don't be poopy. Come on.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Let's go. You said we're going to do Ask Brett. You haven't asked anything. You two have talked to each other like a bunch of idiots. Wait, and... I've inserted the theme of the shows for a decade. It's a couple of eight. It's talking to you.
Starting point is 00:51:30 It is Hope Street property management. Canada's property manager of the year locations in Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary. Online, hopestreet.com. You got that property. You got a few properties. You're like, oh, it's some headache, man. I got to chase after these people and trying to get everything. I heard there was a water main break in the one place.
Starting point is 00:51:54 Don't deal with that. Get a hold of Hope. Street. They do it all for you. Rest easy, my friends. Hohsuit.orgheim. With hopestreet.ca. You can get your questions in. Ask ret at flamesnation.ca.
Starting point is 00:52:11 And you say you're ready. So away we go. Rett, what was your favorite road trip as a member of the Sabers? People always ask, where's your favorite city? Where's your favorite road trip? It depends on how good your team is. And it's weird.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Like when we played in Buffalo and in Florida, rarely did we spend a night in Chicago. Out of conference, right? We played in Calgary. We always felt like we had a night off in Chicago. So Chicago's a great city. Lots of fun. When we were in Florida,
Starting point is 00:52:53 we always had nights off in Montreal. Oh, hard to argue with Montreal being a, bad town to go to right so my favorite barn to play in was always philly because they are so intense you saw it in the in the baseball and stuff but any of the original six buildings were pretty special old leaves garden i played in the the forum but road trip and i would have to say Nashville yeah we've heard enough stories from Nashville yeah yeah yeah i'll always had fun in Nashville. Now, you said whether you're good or not.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Like, is there certain cities where if it's your first place team, let's go? And it's like, who the hell are you? Like, I could see LA being like that. You're like, who are these losers? You're like, oh, wow, that's the sabers. Again, it's changed significantly since I played. It's a long time ago. And even at the end of my career, it was different than at the start.
Starting point is 00:53:53 But it used to, they, the fellas used to go continuously. A road trip, every road trip was very similar. We've land and you'd go to an establishment. And you'd play the next day. Yeah. So. But my favorite barn to play in was Philly because they hated you. And they wanted you to hurt and to lose.
Starting point is 00:54:20 And if you did it right, they'd hate the flyers by the time the night was over. Yeah, you could really swing them. You could spin them. Yeah. Hey, Rhett. Where do you? stand on racquetball oh interesting question uh actually somewhat similar story i signed uh my younger two boys up for tennis racket sport uh because i think they're great for people also i was club champ
Starting point is 00:54:46 at the riverside uh racket club in saskatoon as a young 12 year old lad which sport could really shuffle around and move so a big fan of and you know what else the preacher from the roast the Yeah, yeah. That said the blessing. Yeah. He also a big racquetball guy. Love racquetball. Racquet ball.
Starting point is 00:55:06 And again, you need the eye glare. You need the eye wear for the racquetball. You got to be careful. So do you slide into squash ever? Is it like a big war? Racquetball versus squash. I get any sort of racket. I'm good with squash is so much harder.
Starting point is 00:55:19 You got to move. The racquet ball is bouncing around. That squash ball. It doesn't bounce. That thing hates bounce. Yeah. And if you're not wearing eye protection, that ball could hit you right in there.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Suck your eyes. ball right out of your, right out of your head. And Saskatoon lost one the other. Oh. Like that. Not funny. So do you think with your shoulders? Because I would think your long arms would make you very, you would be deadly in
Starting point is 00:55:46 racquetball. But man, your shoulders, I would think now would be a real issue. I would be, I would be less effective today than I was as a young lad for sure. Look at this live action. Yeah, we've got some on the U-Tubes here. This is... Oh, diving for it. Oh, he's got the knee coverage.
Starting point is 00:56:05 Yeah, look at this. Very showy. No one wears knee coverage and that's smart. Come on. What's pickleball? Pickle ball is on a tennis court where basically you knock it off at the service, or not the service line, the T-line.
Starting point is 00:56:20 And then, yeah, it's like ping pong standing up. It's small court. It's tennis with a wiffle ball. Yeah. It's basically like a blend between, ping pong where you're a giant and it's on the front half of the tennis court. Is it easier than tits? Why is it so popular?
Starting point is 00:56:37 So it's easier than tennis? Oh, way easier. Yeah. If you're 70 on bad knees, you can still play pickleball. Really? Don't go play tennis. Have you pickled balled? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Love pickleball. Big fan of the tennis. You've never pickleballed. I've pickleball. What? When I was traveling two years ago, there's a tennis court just down the street from here. We played pickleball almost every day. So that line, everything in front of that line,
Starting point is 00:56:58 where these people are standing, that's the kitchen. You got to stay out of the kitchen. You can't hit overhand in the kitchen. So if you're going to hit overhand, you've got to be behind that line. And it's got to bounce, I think, for the first couple points for anyone can hit it without a bounce. But you can you move forward to that line and do a little tip, like a little tip, tip-y-tip? If it bounces in there, absolutely go hit it.
Starting point is 00:57:15 But you can't smash out of the air. I can't smash. Yeah. If you're in the kitchen, you got to let it bounce. Because there's like pro leagues. No front park spikes there. Didn't LeBron just invest in one? I think I saw it was.
Starting point is 00:57:26 Tom Brady? I thought Mark Cuban didn't he? do one. All these people with way too much money are investing in all these new leagues. Pickleball League. Pickleball. Sounds delicious, but I don't know that I want to play. It's a great sport. They had me. Even you can do it. Yeah. What the fuck does that mean? Well, even you. What do you talk? What sports do you play regularly? Bit of a shot? What sports do you play regularly? Um, and what is your go-to? Not a shot. Morning, Rhett. Are you going to be able to join me at the Bill's Lions Thanksgiving Day
Starting point is 00:57:58 in Detroit Rock City. I may have an extra ticket. Come on. From Steve up in St. Albert. I'm not going to go. No way. There's too much food to be eaten and then I'm going to crash on the couch football all day. I don't want no, I can't. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:58:16 I love it. It's awesome. But I want to go to Nona's and crush food and then just melt into the couch. Fantastic point. It might be the most overrated NFL game to go to because you miss loafing around all day eating food. And you're hungover as hell because that Wednesday before is an absolute smash fest. What are we going to do this year?
Starting point is 00:58:39 Talk about it off here. All right. Got something cooking. Hey, Rhett. Friends in high places. Can you give us a better understanding of what Daryl Sutter is like behind closed doors? Is he kicking garbage cans across the room or is he very low key? The less you know, the worse it is.
Starting point is 00:58:56 do you have an example of it's like, oh, he's really mad this time? And then he has a follow. Well, it goes, no one direction that you know he's going to go in. Because I do recall a berating that he gave to guys in Edmonton once that he would never get away with again. Oh, dear. Sounds honest. I don't know that he kicks a lot of cans. But sometimes the side, it's like a good parent, right?
Starting point is 00:59:25 sometimes the silence is the worst part. You know you're into it when there's just that cold, silent and the look. And you're like, oh, oh. Because he's never really a big jovial backslapper kind of guy. He's always in kind of that, you know, fairly consistent. So you're out of the right. It would take a few minutes to be like, is he? Where is he at today?
Starting point is 00:59:47 Oh, he's pissed today. Oh, he's good today. Take a minute. Follow up question. Maybe not so much one for you, but maybe somebody else in your, household. I'm in the market for a new shovel. Does the shoveler have any recommendations?
Starting point is 01:00:01 E ergonomic, overrated, how wide is too wide? He's got some serious questions. Plastic steel, aluminum, what are you doing? This one came in a few days ago, so we've had the snow. I feel this guy's been all alone out there. I could use this advice shopping for shovels without this kind of advice. Poor bastard. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:16 The problem is that that I would know, but then the show, we would have to talk enough to get to the understanding. any of what she likes. So we don't discuss a whole lot. So the shoveler and I have never talked about what she prefers as a, as a lifting device. So I can look into it for you. I could tweet it out or perhaps I could put her to work.
Starting point is 01:00:42 She's got, isn't it, doesn't she have a Twitter account? She does. I think it would be quite something special. If you could just film a little seminar with her after the first dump of snow in Buffalo, do a quick little one minute do's and don'ts of shoveling with the shoveler. That'd be we put on our YouTube channel. And she would appreciate that. And she would appreciate that because that would give her an excuse to go buy a new outfit to put on for this.
Starting point is 01:01:04 100%. Let's do it. We'll get a sponsor. Yeah, that's right. Because I think when you go for shoveling, you could get sucked into buying the big one. It's bigger. Less time spent. More snow.
Starting point is 01:01:14 It takes more. It's the harder it is. Oh, gosh. Yeah, but it's. You don't need it too big. Sometimes smaller. Right? Gets the job, Doug.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Yeah, that's not. No. No. Oh, see, that you can't. Try to lift that. You're thinking that's a great idea, right? Yeah. No.
Starting point is 01:01:31 Wait till there's four feet of snow outside your driveway in Buffalo. And where are you putting that thing? It's too big for your shed. You know where that belongs? That belongs in an arena. That's it. Zamboni broke. Okay, we're taking these.
Starting point is 01:01:43 What is that even for? That's it. Those shovel-making A-holes. They're trying to suck you in with that thing. Look how easy it's going to be. That thing's a nightmare. They're in cahoots with the medical community and the chiropractors.
Starting point is 01:01:56 That's right. It's big shovel and big medicine. Teaming up. Fucking big shovel. We could get to the bottom of this conspiracy. Are we done? No. We're getting there.
Starting point is 01:02:20 We got stuff to do. We got a good one for you at the end, too. Which former teammate could handle their booze the best and worst? Oh, boy. Jamie McClendon was a real, expert a real professional about his uh vodka intake thorough yeah thorough pro very good at it yep Tim Connolly may be the worst oh dear TC Timmy Timmy too excited to wound up too rambunctious and then just too much too soon yeah he believed it you know what it was overconfident
Starting point is 01:03:00 overconfident figured he could handle it take it all down I'll drink as much as Patrick Coletta problem the last one for it today on Ask Ret we have some video to share with you so if you're listening on the podcast after the case then definitely go on you but no go on the YouTube go on the YouTube's and find it I don't even know what the question was let's just let's just say hey
Starting point is 01:03:26 Rhett do you remember this whammo It's a slap shot from Warner back in the Buffalo days. It's nowhere close. That's a gold judge. Remember when you used to have those? Tell your kids about gold judges. They're like cabooses.
Starting point is 01:03:45 You'll never see them again. Now, that was that, that was not tipped. Correct. That was just, look at the poor kid crying. They were all crying. That bag,
Starting point is 01:03:53 the glass, the gold jug, I don't really remember it, but someone brought it up since I got back here. And they were like, that gold judge got glass all down. Well, look, watch the, watch this poor gold judge.
Starting point is 01:04:04 Oh, it rains on them. You're right. Oh, it keeps coming. Four waves. Went down his shirt and stuff. Not good. And trust me, it's not because I could shoot the puck hard.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Something was wrong with that piece of glass. That is legendary. Poor kid. Now, Wret, knowing you, I'm sure you did something nice for that kid. Warner's Corner.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Maybe take him out for a stinger sub. What'd you say? I think I got beat up that game too. I wonder you don't remember it, eh? They're going to call it early at the intermission here, guys. Holesinger's heading down the alley. That's Askeret for you today. You can email your questions in.
Starting point is 01:04:46 We do it every Thursday. Askeret at Flamesnation.ca. Presentation of Hope Street property management. Earn your premium rental rates while resting easy, knowing that your property is safe and protected and that everything is being done the right way. Book a virtual meeting online. Let Hope Street get there.
Starting point is 01:05:03 to work for you, Canada's property manager of the year, Hopestreet.ca. Hope street dot CA. Football picks and we're out? Yeah, geez, man, we had a lot today. I know, we got a lot today. God, the Penderport sucked and was short. We needed to get out of there anyway. Well, and imagine if he wasn't distracted, it was actually contributing.
Starting point is 01:05:25 It could have been a nightmare. He'd still be talking. Honestly, he saved the show again. I could take a week off and still have more All-Star points on YouTube, dummies. That's true. Yeah. Yeah, it's MVP. And I think, to be fair, he did take that week off before he started the MVP run.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Yeah. Just mailing it in the basement. You guys couldn't figure out how the cameras were. Everything was a disaster. I'll tell you. The first day. One thing we did today that we figured out about you, you, you, Dean made the analogy. What is Rett like?
Starting point is 01:05:54 If you had to compare Rett to something. We took them out of the basement. We put them upstairs in the kitchen. Oh, yeah. The dining room table. You're a delicate flower. You can't be putting flowers, expect them to grow in the basement.
Starting point is 01:06:07 All dark. Let's get you up here. We're going to put you, get you some sunlight. Get you by some trees. We're going to talk to you, talk nice. Hey, buddy, how are we doing today? You're not allowed back in that dungeon.
Starting point is 01:06:18 Have a little something to drink. Get you hydrated? Yeah, a little drink. Look at you now. Unbelievable. You look really good. He's a first line. Got color?
Starting point is 01:06:28 All star since he's been upstairs. I took my shirt off for you guys earlier. Yeah, please don't do. Don't do that for the show. Yeah, don't do that again. It is the, we usually do it on a Friday. We are off tomorrow because of Remembrance Day and we'll do it today. NFL picks with Betway, your Betway Betts of the day.
Starting point is 01:06:49 I forget which ones, because I got a bunch here. There's a lot of games. Ooh, I like them. I like them a lot. I've got the picks right here. If you want me to lead off, I'm going to take whoever wants to, we'll throw one up and we'll go from there. Yeah, that's fair. You got them.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Okay. I forgot about the boards. We got boards. But the NFL picks. There you. go let's go okay there i'm gonna play the thursday nighter because we don't we're not doing a show tomorrow pay some respect for those that serve for our country continue to do so uh we can actually throw a pick in on uh the thursday nighter i like the sneaky carolina panthers who have been
Starting point is 01:07:18 awful the last two weeks getting thumped dean i think has been getting beaten up taking them in the points but i'm going to do that against atlanta tonight they're at home and atlanta can't stop the pass we'll see if uh peanut butter jelly uh walker can string some passes together here I'm taking the points at home with the Pantaros in Charlotte. Bucks in Munich. Tom Brady, that last minute drive to pull one out of the fire. Can they beat a really plucky Seattle club? I like Seattle a lot.
Starting point is 01:07:51 It's a big gap between money and tickets here. I'm going to follow the people smarter than me who think Tampa's going to cover two and a half. And I really like the Browns who play some defense. And Miami's been getting a shootouts lately. Nick Chubb, have a day. Let's go. Brown's plus three and a half at Miami. There you go. Yeah, Munich. I mean, the bucks have been so bad. They have been so bad. I was looking at that game.
Starting point is 01:08:13 And a win would probably give them the division, right? Like, it's, that's how, like, they'll, be in sole possession of first, depending on tonight's outcome. Like, they could be in first, as bad as they've been. Because everything about that game makes me want to take the Seahawks. They've won four in a row. Their defense is good. Gino looks better than Tom. So then you go the other way and take the bucks, but I just can't do it. Brady stinks. team's awful. I got three picks for you. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:08:37 I am not doing the game tonight, although I'm hoping for an exciting high scoring. If anything, I would take the over. I don't even know what the... There's also going to be some rain and the wind. There's a storm coming in there. So it's not nasty, but it's going to be a little bit wet. Because it is...
Starting point is 01:08:51 Not that I'm not like some Hall of Famers coming back, but Sam Darnold may be close to returning. It may not be Phil from start to finish tonight. Anyway, here's what I've got for my... three picks. Denver, their defense is very good. Their offense has been terrible. The, the Titans are six and two against the spread. Their defense 10th, their team defense 10th in the National Football League, and I just, they're just going to run this thing. They're going to run it right down Denver's throat. They look great against Kansas City, all things considered on the Sunday
Starting point is 01:09:26 night or didn't that? Give up nothing. Under, a lot of places have it. Three or more, Betway, two and a half. I like the hook. Give me the. the Titans minus two and a half at home. Even better. The New York Giants coming off a buy against Houston. The Texans, I believe, have the worst run defense in the NFL. They hung in for about like two and a half quarters and then finally got walled by Philly. They played a week ago last Thursday.
Starting point is 01:09:50 Yeah, Texans allow most rushing yards through nine weeks. Sequoan have a day. Five, four and a half are coming off the buy. Give me the Giants. Give away the points. I'm taking favorites this week, I guess. And then it's Green Bay. They have not looked right.
Starting point is 01:10:04 No. Every week you keep waiting. That's Aaron Rogers, right? He's going to find a way. He's going to find a way. This rookie's looking good. Hurt. Romeo Dobbs out.
Starting point is 01:10:10 Christian Watson out. Cobb out. Dallas, their defense is so strong. I'm going to take the Cowboys on the road in Green Bay, minus four and a half. So those are my picks for us this week. Rhett, you're going to take the bills. This is quite interesting.
Starting point is 01:10:27 They are favored by three and a half against Minnesota, what, a seven and one football club? And it might be Faith Daniels. Case Keenham. Bates right. Faith, Keenum. Talk to us. Keenom might play, but everyone in Buffalo is happy that they said,
Starting point is 01:10:46 Alan, he's not having surgery. So it's the bills. You've got to have faith in your team. You stick with them. Unlike you, too. I could also go with, I like some of these picks that you guys have. And maybe, yeah, no. I have that.
Starting point is 01:11:03 Just the bills. Well, we're going to put up a graphic for Rett's picks, and it's always just going to be bills, like locked in with chains wrapped around it, and that's just his one pick every week. Just bills. Whatever the number is, bills. That's your betway bets of the day.
Starting point is 01:11:20 Before we go, two things. One, how do we feel about this game tonight? We've talked about it. Sometimes things go, you think they're going one way, it's got to go this way, and then whoop, didn't see it coming, could happen. They've had two of the best starts we've seen all season on this road trip and they haven't closed it out.
Starting point is 01:11:36 This is the best team they'll face on the road trip. I think you get a really, really good game from the Calgary Flames. I still don't know if it's enough. Hopefully they get to overtime, we get a point. That's the scary part, right? You can play one hell of a game and still come home with that. There's the perfection line. It was tied late.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Game over. Yeah. It's going to be close, though. They're going to, the process will be there. the process the process the work ethic all that will be fine i'm not convinced about the result what did i pick actually oh you picked i said a loss so i don't know well i mean there's the perfection line but there's also the buffalo duo you get de simone and gilbert out there just shut it down throw a blanking on it yeah the junior sabre's going to show up in a big big way yeah i i have a weird i feel like
Starting point is 01:12:28 it's too easy to just go boston rough shot on this i i wonder if they find a way to get a point. It would be impressive. With a solid one here tonight. And, I mean, that'll do it for the show today. Thanks to everybody for tuning in. Thanks for listening. Thanks to all of our sponsors.
Starting point is 01:12:42 Big week next week. Greg at Bontan, we're coming to see you. South Street Burger. We are going to do a pivot with those guys. Swear jar is taking a beating. It's overlap. I wonder how long it would take. It was kind of the,
Starting point is 01:12:54 pst, uh, may need to switch it up. It's a great news for your kids' sport. Not so good for South Street Burger and New York fries, but nonetheless. And I know from around the horn, do take time tomorrow, as it is November 11th. We are not doing a show
Starting point is 01:13:09 and we stop and give thanks and think of those who let us do dumb stuff like this for a living. No kidding. I think of my two grandfathers who both served for our country in World War II, who have both gone now
Starting point is 01:13:22 and just think about what gets people upset these days and what those men had to do in their teens. It's an incredible. incredible people. In retro, I know that just everything kind of military is close to you and your family as well.
Starting point is 01:13:39 Yeah, no, that's definitely something that is well, it hits real close to. Yeah. You can't get any closer. We give thanks to, sorry, Redd, we give thanks to those before us and those for listening and watching and have a great weekend. We'll be back
Starting point is 01:13:56 on Monday. Oilers Nation every day coming up next on YouTube. See you. And the oilers also suck. That is true. See you, buddies.
