Well, here we are. Thursday edition of Barnburner, Boomer, Pinder Warner, here on Flamesnation.C.A. on our YouTube channel. Subscribe if you would. That'd be great. Just give us five stars. That's all. It's all free. It's all free. Just give it a, give it a subscribe there. We'd sure, we'd sure appreciate that. We've got a lot to do today. We've got a lot to get into. So no dilly-dallying around. We're here in the Tower Criesor studios today. Reminder, that over at Tower for the month of February, mustard cussars.

Seed, beneficiary of choice right now for Nikki and everybody at Tower, asking you to stop by the dealership with any winter clothes, winter items, coats, boots, mitts, gloves, you know what we're talking about. They got a ram all set up in the showroom. We're going to fill that thing and then wheel it over to the mustard seat at the end of the month. And if you do so, not only will you get to see that beautiful new ram in the showroom. Oh, you know, you're going to enter into a prize for a lovely prize package to be determined. But it'll be a decent one for sure. Don't be fooled by the warm weather.

It's still Feb. We're going to get another couple blasts of it. And it's not really about the prize package. It's about doing the right thing. That's correct. Which is, that's what Tower does. Tower Kreiser Studios. There is, we'll get into the game,

because it is a game day. Get your helmet on. Detroit Red Wings, the host of the Calgary Flames tonight. But diving right into it. We're new with McLeod Law, our new friends over at McLeod. Usually we kind of take some time, we get into the show, and then we'll kind of massage them in. But today, and not good news, unfortunately, but for McLeod Law, we start the show today with the injury report.

And it takes big news on the injury report to get ahead of what we know will be a soup update for Rett on a rainy day in Buffalo around the Great Lakes. And it's not good news from Detroit where it's also rainy. Rasmus Anderson is not going to play tonight. at his day to day. He was struck by a vehicle when scootering through a crosswalk last night at 6 p.m. Detroit time on his way to dinner. He was alone. He has sent pictures of himself in the hospital to his teammates. And it sounds like, you know, he's not in perfect shape, but certainly feels like a

bullet was dodged here in the sense that you can get hit by a vehicle and things can go very poorly. We don't have to probably explain that in great detail. Day to day, not going to play. And a lot of corresponding moves. because he's probably your best defenseman. He logs massive minutes. He's on a top pair.

He runs a power play. And of course, I guess the best part of it is it sounds like he's avoided significant injury. And this isn't a he's done for the season or worse. It's a day-to-day situation for the flames. Yeah. I mean, that's obviously the most important. Reached out to the team this morning. And pretty much the story is dodged a major bullet here,

was hit by a truck on a scooter. and like you say day to day, but just the common thread is guys very lucky. So like you say, they've made other moves. Somebody else will play on the top pair, but kind of shakes you when you hear that. I could tell by your reaction,

the retro you hadn't heard that as that kind of started to come out late last night early this morning. I had no idea. Not a clue. And see, it's funny. I'm glad he's dodged the bullet. but when I got hurt in Chicago

on St. Patty's Day, everyone made fun of me and they weren't really concerned with my health, but everyone here seems to be, have the right intentions and want genuine concern. When I got, yeah, when I got hurt, it was, you're an idiot.

Yeah, well, rolling your ankle when you're drunk getting out of a cab, a little bit different than it's getting struck by a vehicle. No. Or not, I don't know. It wasn't drunk yet. Okay. Was drunk yet.

It was St. Patrick's, was not. But he was, as far as Rasmus and see, there it is, even years later, you're still not getting the, still defending that, yeah. The attention you deserve was going, the team had gone to dinner, was at a restaurant

and whatever, you know, it didn't go with, with the group, he was by himself when he was hit. So not that it makes it any less significant, but be scared out of your mind. Taking by ambulance to hospital. You're laying there and no one, all by yourself, anyway, Because you forget it.

In some case, still a kid in his 20s, right? These are young guys. You forget that there's some youth. You were an old goat when you hurt yourself, Red. Rasmus Anderson. He's a young man. What year was that?

Is that one of your last few? 2009, I think. Anyway, that sucks. I had no clue. Like, where is it? 6 p.m. Wednesday. Yeah. So, uh, released,

from hospital last night. That's good. And day-to-day, we're still with the team. So there it is. It is good news, given the news. It's the injury report for McLeod Law.

Good people, deep Calgary roots, caring for Calgarians. McLeod Law. Very good. Also quick add-ons in the injury world. Jack Hughes announced this morning week to week. He's out, the top center for the New Jersey Devils. And Kail McCarr, who took that not so clean Jeff Carter hit two nights ago, is done for the rest of this week.

So that means he's going to miss tonight in the rematch between. the bolts and the abs, it's Stanley Cup rematch, a red tonight in, I believe, Tampa. Jack Hughes, having a year. We talked about him, what, last week? He was in a spot to get some heart votes. It's been quite a campaign for the resurgent devils. Jack Hughes, he is ninth in league scoring,

67 points in 50 games. It's good. It's all right. It's good. Now, speaking of injuries in Detroit, remind me, before we get into the details on this game today between the flames and Red Wings, Was it you that ended Eiserman's career or Eiserman ended your career?

It's foggy. Bad blood. Well, I tried to sell it as it was me ending Eiserman's career, but someone in Edmonton kiboshed that. Is that right? Because my memory was foggy and I was maybe, well, because I thought Eiserman didn't come back and play after the lockout year, which meant that after he got.

hitting a face from the puck off my leg. Right. That would have ended his career, but apparently played one more year. Now, but he hurt you too, right? Is that how that went?

It was retribution? Well, he stuck me in the eye. He's a stick man. Stickman. He's always been a stick man. He's always, he's a ninja as a younger child.

And he stuck me in the eye with a stick. Had to take out the top D man for the flames that year. And that's what he did, mission accomplished. He's like her game. Regier got hurt. Ernie McCracken with the fluck of the Take your eye with the flick of the wrist, just like Steve Eisenman.

So he stuck you, and then years later, a puck went off your leg into his face, settling the score. No, three games. Yeah. Three games later. It was the same series that my eye got obliterated in game two and in game five, I decided to ricochet went off his noggin and crush his face. It was not pretty. Goal is probably just. neither occurrence, actually.

Lucky it wasn't ricochained them in the net. Could have changed the game. Could have, yeah. I was scared shitless because I'd never been hit in the eye like that. Punched in the face a few times and this and that and cut my, you know, kind of in the eyebrow area. But that was right in the eye. That is different. Like a bone's going to heal and there's a timetable.

And eyes like I might not ever see. Like this is a sense that's being threatened here. It's not good. Well, and it's immediately it was like, I can't see. it's watering and what's happening and it was like you're you get scared your instincts take over you're like where am i going you're trying to try to get off the ice it was not good and then the the puck that hit iserman who that was ugly too like that that that was full on he didn't see it coming and slap shot off my shin pad right oh and he was nowhere near the net right like it wasn't

yeah anyway it sounded gross it looked gross and you knew right away there was trouble. Did you say who shot it? I'm trying to. Quite sure. I'm not. Littsum point shot off you. Sure, yeah.

Just one of those hall famous who was playing with him. Kirk Malp. So McLeod Law really getting their money's worth on the injury report. I didn't know Steve Eiserman and Rhett Warner would show up on the injury report, but yet here we are. It's deep, deep dives back to the late double O's. You're welcome, McLeod Law. Peter Klein.

They like that nostalgia, though. Yeah, they sure do. So it's the wings and the flames tonight. first meeting of the season. The Red Wings back-to-back losses. They fell to the Islanders to Zip. Edmonton, their most recent game, five to two,

and of course the Flames, a thrilling, if you want to call it that. I guess it was. Five-four loss in OT. Great game, exciting back and forth. I don't expect similar similar excitement tonight, given the two teams, so maybe I'm wrong.

I don't think Detroit's boring, but that's kind of the high water mark for the regular season, never mind the flames. A lot of people. that were not associated with the Flames of Rangers called that game of the year. Could be a record-setting night for one member of the Calgary Flames, Ryan.

It absolutely could. Rett, who is it? And what kind of record are we toppling tonight? Well, Dan Vlodar is getting the start tonight, and we believe if he can get a couple points that he's going to set the record. Yeah! A single point.

Even a single. Yes. He's gone 13 games of the point, Ret, tying Brian Elliott, Moose and Bernie Bernie 13 game points streaks for those two 10-0-13 in his last 13 games So just don't lose and right?

I like this year I'm shocked I know that I don't know how I know that That was an absolute stab in the dark But glad to come out ahead You're good man Just had a stroke or something It's how good you are

You don't know how good you are We but we I got two because the game was Monday I'm trying to think So on Tuesday, we kind of threw it out just so who's getting the start in Detroit. And I agreed with Ret when he said it's going to be Markstrom because he was actually, despite the loss, I thought quite good in that game. I like this.

And I know that Darrell wants Markstrom to be his guy, but I also know that Darrell has functioning eyeballs and can, you know, remember when goals go in. Unlike Eisenman and Rutts Warner. That's right. So it's turds. It's been early goals on Markstrom a lot this year. and I don't think he's been awful. It's just that he's put the team in tough spots being behind early a ton. And I think if you're Darrell, it might be time to say if you win, you just stay in the net.

And if we have back-to-backs and travel, we'll deal with those when we get there. But they're really not, they don't have the luxury of playing the long game necessarily as much as he might want to. I don't know that that's what he's doing, but we've seen a whole lot more of Ladar before coming back from the All-Star break. So as they closed out in Seattle, he had five. of the previous eight starts in net, Vlodar. So this will be six of 11. It's not a decided edge, but the needle's certainly swinging towards,

from Markham 1, Vlodar 2, to a split work share. And if FlaDR wins, like, I don't think anyone would be concerned internally, externally, anywhere that if you just ride a hot goalie, please be that guy, Dan. They need it.

Or are we overthinking it? Sorry, I was going to say, are we overthinking? Detroit, they're out of the playoff picture, they're a weaker opponent, you start your backup against the weaker opponent. That's the rest of the road trip, though, right? Is that... Buffalo, I don't know, I don't

kind of feel like they're... They're almost that different. They're out of the playoffs. I think they're both dangerous clubs. I think we're underestimating. I was going to say, I actually think all three of these teams. I'm here bragging about how well the sabres have played, but probably

Detroit and Buffalo are very similar. Both on the up and up? both probably feeling good about themselves, both young teams that probably play with significant pace. And Ottawa's the same. That's three in a row against, you know, you're better than. But I don't think any of these opponents are easy. These are all tricky. But what I truly think has happening in net is that Darrell has eyed Dustin Wolf and his love of young players has taken over.

And he's trying to run marks from out of town so that he can get Wolfie into the line of someone. Yeah. Yeah. That's not the case. And I was just throwing that out because I agree with you. Prove it. Prove it, Dean. What?

Prove it. Yeah, prove that Daryl doesn't young, young players. I mean, there's no evidence out there. Come on, Dean. Prove it. If this is a year ago, I don't think there's any way you see Vlodar. No. Because we're now, you know what, in what season we're in?

The best players play season. This is not, oh, let's tinker mess around for Daryl Sutter. We're in February. We need the points. We're on the road. you play your best. I think it is significant that Vidalar goes here. I agree.

Two days break from, sorry, I can you jump two days between games. This was set up as a Markstrom game for sure. Yeah. And remember, this isn't a dissimilar spot from where they were when, you know,

they're on that road trip where it was Chicago, St. Louis, St. Louis, Dallas. And you're like, well, I mean, Markstrom's not performing here.

Why aren't you putting Vlidar in? And then it's the, well, it's a Saturday matinee, obviously use your backup. That's the, that's the Buffalo game on Saturday. You could see how this was going to line.

up if it was a month ago. But I'm kind of with you. I think it's not a time to play favorites. It's time to go with results. And 10.0 and 3 in his last 13, it's fucking legendary results. It's about to set a franchise record if you can get a point tonight.

Yeah. I think people are happy. Who are they knocking out of the playoffs? Minnesota. It's my new team. I'm hating on. What? Do you see this Danix today?

You've got that you love tattoo on your hoop. I like Minnesota. Something's not right there this year. I don't know if they're getting the goaltending. Ryan Hartman's gone for a 30 goal guy to like, like, healthy scratch here the night or something like that or way down the lineup. Healthy scratch? I'm trying to see what it was.

Something caught my eye with Hartman. Go get him. Well, I mean, I don't know what the money is, and I don't know that they dislike him. I think it's just a bad, tough season for him after a career year. Like, he had a monster year last year, remember? Well, he'd fit in and it'd be good.

He'd fit in in Calgary. He'd join the crew with tough seasons. Great. Coming off a career year? Yep. Did he sign a mahuso deal in the summer? I don't know what's the deal. I don't know that that's the case.

While you're looking that up, Madrose Pub, our ticket provider, supplier, for people that watch and listen to Barnburn. The next game, because it's home games, right, is going to be, oddly enough, against Detroit. That's coming up next week. Madrose Pub, up in Royal Oak, Royal Vista Place, daily specials.

Today, we were talking before, it's, I believe it's a souvlaki wrap and chicken rice soup. Really? I like that. Soup, there's your segue. 20 beers on tap, kid friendly on Saturday,

Sunday, Monday, the dough for the pizza and the sauce made fresh every single day. Great spot. Take our word for it. It's Madrose Pub. Madrose.

com online. 15 Royal Vista Place. So Ryan Hartman is riding the... Sorry. What? No. Go ahead.

Just the shooting percentage. Like last year, he's on a heater this year. It's the cooler. It's the, truce in the middle somewhere. Probably not a third goal guy. Also probably not a 10 goal guy. And he was healthy scratch earlier this week, scored the other night, had it disallowed. It's kind of the season he's having. Healthy scratch. That's something.

I had chicken noodle soup and it was phenomenal. The lady at the till tried to talk me into this fancy chicken parm soup. And I'm like, what are we talking about here? What are we talking about here? It's a tomato base. It's breaded chicken, chopped up. Get the hell out of here with this chicken palm soup. You're using old shitty chicken and threw it in a pot and you're trying to sell it to me. Give me the chicken noodle. I want the chicken noodle. It's delicious.

I don't have to steer away from that. Come on. Is it a two banger today? Are you doing a soup two banger? Back to back soups, baby. Back to back soups, chicken noodle soup for lunch. And I'm going with the old hamburger soup, Dean, that you've grown to love for supper. and a grilled cheese because you got to have grilled cheese with that hamburger.

So good. What do you say about the great ones? They make it look easy. Double soup. Double soup. The old soup. They should see the rain out there. Well, show us.

It's pouring. Is it like cats and dogs? It's like Vancouver. Yeah. Oh, that's not good. It's pouring rain. And it, no. I don't know where it all goes.

It's like a swamp. You know those great lakes nearby? I'm guessing it ends up there. Oh, I suppose. I was, I was given the heads up, right? Hence that, hence that big waterfall thing.

That's the one. Where's that water come from? Where's that water keeps coming from? Unbelievable. That's a lot of water. Is there a faucet back there? Who built that? Is it like the Bellagio?

Like, is it just, do they cycle it through? Or how does this work? I was giving the heads up. Do they have down? Major, major Pinder report today. So we're going to get right to it. I'm not dragging my feet.

There lots of news, lots of drunkenness. NBA's upside down with trades. Can I just listen and get a coffee or do I have to like watch? Can you do both? Visuals I need. Yeah, there's some good vis. I like it. I always like the red involvement.

Yes, I do too. Okay, then I won't stand up. Just kind of sprinkle some redisms in there. I thought of Rhett a bunch today when cobbling together. What would you call it? Curating? Curating the Pinder. Curated by Ryan Pinda. I have one that will change your life, guaranteed. And it's kind of something that you've been flirting with, but you just don't know enough. You need more info. Like, how close are we to this? Well, we're fucking close. So that's coming up. And also,

I want to get you to break something down for me from the tennis world, which I think you're going to love. The Pinder report is a presentation of Village, Honda, a stop in. Why don't you take that CRV hybrid out for a wheel? Give that thing a taste. How about that passport trail sport? It's in stock. It's brand new for 2023. All in the Northwest Automall at Village Honda, your dealership for life. Here is the Pinder Report.

Boys, we start with the news. We opened the show with Rasmus Anderson in hospital yesterday after getting struck by a vehicle while on a scooter on his way to dinner. Let's sift through some of the information we do have provided. This all broke this morning, courtesy the flames on Twitter, announcing the incident that Rasmus is day to day. That was followed up by quotes as well from Brad Schilliving. Yeah, we'll get to that in a second. And I, you never know, you hear these things and you wonder when it's online. Is this, is this legit? What is this? But it, we touched base with the team this morning. It was a truck and it was, there was, there was very much potential, as you would guess, right?

But sometimes, you know, oh, you got hit by, who was it, Jeff Kent or whatever, he got hit on his motorbike. It's all, what were you doing? Oh, I was waxing my truck and I fell. This one could have been really bad. It was a truck. This is a scooter. This was in, this was not high speed, but this wasn't, this wasn't insignificant.

Raspus Anderson, very lucky. No major injuries is what we're led to believe. He's day to day. He's going to stay with the team. But I think, team's shaken up by it, as, as you would expect they would be. How could you not be? Yeah. So it's easy. Now you hear it the next morning, oh, he got hit by a thing.

Oh, is he okay? Yeah, he's okay. This was some scary times last night for the team and for Rasmus. Yeah, so we see the tweets from the flames there. We saw the quotes from the general manager who went out of his way to thank the medical people not only with the team, but also at the hospital where Rasmus was taken by ambulance. You saw Ryan Pikes to it as well. He's got an Iron Man streak of over 300 games. One of the things Rasmus Anderson doesn't get a lot of credit for is just being available all the time. 300 plus games in a row stretching back multiple seasons, obviously, to get to that number, 323, November 2018. They're going to miss them tonight as there's a lot of things he does. You probably just take for granted. And when you have something like this occur, it maybe reminds you of the hierarchy of

who's important in the sense that when they're gone, you notice. We've seen that with Chris Tanna, when he's gone, you're like, oh, shit. We'll see how they do with Erasmus tonight. who has a lot of responsibilities on his job description. Backland had this to say on the incident. He was chatting with what, Sean Shapiro, I believe, who said Rasmus sent selfies from the hospital, that light in the mood.

Everyone's like, okay, if you were a little bit better in that. And then Backland also said there were things Anderson couldn't remember about the collision itself. So that would lead you to believe that, okay, might be in concussion territory. Not remembering things, not a great sign. although that is sort of anecdotal from second-hand source. Anecdotal, but yeah, like he could have been quite a bit worse.

That, of course, necessitates another defenseman for the Calgary Flames. Dennis Gilbert recalled from the Wranglers. He was just sent down earlier this week. He was up for the Monday, yeah, Gilber. He was started with the team for the New York and then zip back to Calgary. They would have gone, I believe, to San Francisco yesterday, but they're just coming out of the All-Star break in the American League. They fly today to get to San Jose.

So Gilbert would have yesterday been alerted to this and as actually playing tonight on a pair with Michael Stone. We've seen a lot of this. Gilbert might not be number seven on the NHL versus HL pecking order. But if he gets up into the big squad, he's playing ahead of Mackey a fair amount. And I don't mind that. He's been very good. And I'm good with it too, retro. But what is that, not that there's a message to be sent,

but what is the takeaway for Connor Mackey where injury last night, Gilbert jettisoned in at the 11th hour and we'll play today whereas Mackey, I've been with the team, I've been practicing, I've been pre-game skates, I've been with the team, but this guy comes in and 10 minutes later is going to start tonight,

not ideal for Connor Mackey. Well, I think it's a pretty clear indicator that you better pull up your socks, right? I don't think any of us have liked how he's played. No, I'm not shocked. It's been dreadful at times. you can say, well, I'm just okay at others. He can say, I'm here practicing, but part of the reason he might be with the flames and practicing

with them as opposed to with the Wranglers is because it's the same thing with the Wranglers. Mitch Love might prefer having Dennis Gilbert in the lineup. And it's, you know what I mean? Waivers. He's an expendable piece, right? So not a great feel if you're him, but only he can control how he plays. Gilbert's cleared and you've got a certain amount of time. time and games before you have to

re-clear waivers and he's still within that window, Mackie is not. So that, I think, is why you're seeing him up on the big squad and yet Gilbert playing ahead of him. I don't think they want to lose Mackey for nothing. They like him a lot. They picked him ahead of Alamaki who just got an extension from Phoenix. So that's

my, you know, sifting through trying to make sense of it because it's certainly not best for Connor Mackey to not play all year, but if they could get him to the A and back without waivers, I think they would have. I can't imagine he's a threat to be lost on waivers. Yeah, I don't know.

That's a good question. It certainly felt like Valamaki was younger, right? More upside there. Okay, we mentioned Dan Vladar looking for a team record. 10-0 and 3 in his last 13. We talked about that before. We'll leave that alone. Here are the lines for tonight's contest for the Calgary Flames.

It'll be the new jazz standards. The top nine is the top nine. You got Peltje with Euberto and Cadre. line's the top line. Back on line continues to be their best, most consistent line, since they've been put back together. And the fourth line looks like a fourth line. There's Luch, Roach, and Louie. Going back to that now because he's planning on. I think we need that number 49 to get his S together and start producing. I was just going to say, hey, they got caved in. They got caved in on Monday. That line was awful. And, you know, Cadre got rocked a couple times, turned it over. Ubertoe is hard to find

these days. That solo pregame tilt where you went out all by yourself and everyone, hey, look, there he is, 49. Skinrun. It was a while ago. Yeah. Do yourself. Do the cause of favor.

Be good tonight. Let's go. Because you're right. That line was nothing special against the rangers. Pairs looked like this. Hanofin with Tanna, Zedorov and Uyghur back together. You know what you have too much coffee and a little bit jittery like that? It's kind of like to watch Zedaroff.

A weeker's like, yeah. I'm not sure I'm going to like this. Are you back to... We need to give him some turkey gravy. Is that what you're saying with the Zad Dog? It's the Zad Dog. I mean, good luck to that pair. I hope they do great things.

Gilbert in with Stone we talked about and yes, Vladar is in net tonight. Detroit quickly, we'll glance at them. Lucas Raymond on the top line with Dylan Larkin and Tyler Bertuzzi. They have Kubelik out Zadena in and Jordan Oshelie will sit for Hague on The back end, Billy Huso, the former Blue, had a great season last year, starts in net. Okay. Standings.

I mentioned Minnesota. They lost last night to Dallas, rather handily. The Western Conference looks as such. All of a sudden, that wildcard, Colorado jumps into the top three in the Central, where we know they're going to finish the year. They're too good not to. And Minnesota, tied with the flames and points, they played just once more. If that doesn't feel like a new target for the Calgary Flames, I don't know what does,

because Edmonton doesn't, and for all to talk about the Kings, the games played are way off there, and the points are also not close. Feels like that's right now, you want to catch a team, focus on the wild. I mean, Oilers are four points. It's not like,

it's not the distance. It's that the Oilers are finally getting goaltending and playing well, and their schedule is softer than puppy poop right now. So that's my thought on that one. You know, we want some Flames content, Rhett. You love, I know you love getting out in the community, and you're really endearing yourself to a city. Oscar dance, back up.

This toughest job in the America League, backing up Dustin Wolf. You're never going to play. You've got to work the gate the whole season. His new mask, he went to the Ronald McDonald House in Calgary and got kids' drawings and incorporated that into his mask. How cool is that? Let's take a look at it. I love it.

So there's little drawings everywhere that he's tied in, factoring in the Wranglers and cartoons and kids. The kids drew those? Or pick? There's kids' drawings, and then the artist for the mask incorporated the kids' drawings in their style. As you can see, isn't that unbelievable? You know what? It's always been my thing.

Goleys don't have enough fun with their masks. Some guys do. Another one's like, hey, look, it's an evil thing blowing fire. Have some fun. Yeah. That is real cool. Yeah. And dance, you know, journeyman goaltender that's been over in Europe.

They brought him back. And that's not a easy gig in the A. He's not going to play a ton. He's behind a top prospect. but look at that. You didn't have to endure himself to the community this way. That's phenomenal. Spent time in the Ronald McDonald's hosting with kids

that obviously would have been just elated to have a pro hockey player there sharing time of them. Good for him. Nice. In more comical and less heartwarming news, Laddie Schmead had this update on his wife on Twitter. It's really good. The former flame?

The former laddie, your kids. My wife left around 2 p.m. to get her lips tattooed for the first. first time. I think it's the thing, like the inside of lips, you can get that tattooed. 6.58 p.m. front door opened and I was like, holy shit, am I in Disneyland? There she stood. Donald Duck. I'm married to a celebrity now. Laddie from the top rope on his wife. Wow. Well, that is something. I guess I'm out of touch. I'm not familiar with the lip tattooing. And you can get something tattooed in. You get ridden upside down. And then you're holly of this like a

How does it go? Like that. You get the tattoo outside down and then you open up like this. I could say like, go things. I don't know. Is that what it would say? Or the Rettster or something like that. Is it a different attempt that you're making your lips look?

Well, short term, it would certainly be that. I don't know that, I don't know. Probably other ways to do it than the tattoo. Yeah, we can talk to the Ozzy Sheila. She'd know this stuff inside out. I'll get a little report for you tomorrow. Let's move on. NHL.

we mentioned it, Jack Hughes, week to week. That's not good news for the Devils. They're in great shape in the standings, but this is, without a doubt, their most important forward, having a great year, and we'll see when he's back and how he looks.

My theory on the Devils guys, great regular season, they aren't huge up front. They do have some big D-Men. This is a team that's going to be under the microscope in round one. A, it's analytics, B, they're smaller forwards.

Everyone will be ready to crush these guys if they lose in the first round. Get them back, get them. I'm ready. No danger of falling out. No. They're second in the metro. They had that unbelievable start.

Yeah. We're going to keep that up. But I just, I feel for the kid. Yeah. So he was having an unbelievable season. It's, uh, also, what do you feel for the kid?

I, I kind of like the kid. He first overall pick. Okay, but what are you talking about? You feel for the kid. So his first overall pick is going to make a gazillion dollars and he has, he's going to miss a week of hockey. Like what the half for you?

There's layers of my. Tough break. How are you going to get, through this. Like my God, it's over for the gift. You're right. You know what? Fuck it is. Yeah, let's amend that. Fuck Jack. Now he's got how many weeks off to just rig and lay around? How many effing quins are out there too?

Get lost. Huses. There's three. Hughes is for sure. There's some quins. I know one coaches. You know what that happens. There's Jack Quinn and Quinn. Quinn in Buffalo. I know. I know. David Quinn coaching in San Jose. Tonight. This lip thing is not. It's not the jailhouse.

Okay. So a different tattoo on your gums. It's actually try, yeah, it's like trying to make you have fat lips. And honestly, Latvia, like it's right there. It's Daisy Duck. You didn't have to go that low. Hey, come on. It's right there, Daisy. Final NHL, a couple notes here, Stanley Cup rematch tonight. Bolt's abs. No McCar, we noted. Bolts don't look quite right either. They got pumped by Florida and then blew a 3-1 lead, 2-1 lead to the sharks the other night. three one I think they're just bored they were so wasted over the break that they got to play hockey well they'll be fired up tonight I guess at home Stanley Cup rematch uh last time they played here's what it looked like we got the you'll remember this I read you can close your eyes if you want I know you don't like this stuff three two one and throw your stick so is this when john cooper was

crying about uh tap about uh Colorado cheating with too many men or I'm sorry which game was that Offside. I don't know. I didn't really feel like that was close. I felt like the best team won that trophy. Oh, that's a shame. You know what? The silver lining and everything, eh?

Cory Perry didn't win. Also lost with Montreal. I'm happy. Screw you, Tampa. I've been in that rink feeling like that. Oh, sorry, bud. Suck it. Final NHL note.

I like when fans can think outside the box and problem solve. Uh-huh. And so Islanders, of course, bring in Horvat and you know guys will have jerseys of the players that got traded Anthony Bolivier. Bovilliers, excuse me, was an islander that went to Vancouver. Now, it's not the exact number, but how about this for creativity? Not bad.

And someone would call that a jersey fail. I call that a jersey fix. I like that a lot. Explain to the listeners. It's B-E-A-U from Bo-Villier, and they leave that, Bo. And then instead of Villiers, it's tape over and Horvatt written down. Bo, Horvatt. it was like the

the Godreau deal here but the front end yeah you kind of do the thing there you go not bad hasn't worked out sure hasn't

NBA big deals yesterday Rhett are you just ESPN must be just NBA nonstop around the clock right now just craziness insanity I couldn't work out today

because yeah I was in the gym today and all this NBA breakdown stuff was happening about the trades I couldn't work out too much stop the watch

it was amazing Kevin to the desert. He joins the Sons. This just, what, a couple days after Kyrie Irving swapped out to Dallas. That wasn't it. We also saw Russell Westbrook get swapped again. So let's rewind the clock on Westbrook here. I don't expect us to be all NBA insiders like me, obviously, but Redd signs a record five-year deal. So let's see what's happened since that deal was signed for Russell Westbrook. It's been a lot. No, that's not it.

That's the portal trade. We'll get there. So year one, okay, so huge extension. I played for the team that gave him the extension. Year two, traded to rockets. Year three, traded to Wizards. Year four, traded to Lakers. Year five, traded to Jazz.

Good in the room. Great in the room. Got to be a good guy in the room. Yeah, it's a lot. The NBA is drunk. The NBA was drunk yesterday. You were going to jump in, right? Fire.

What's he making? Oh, huge dough. Probably 40 plus a year. Two or three? Yeah. Yeah. Does not care. Two or three units of McDavid a year.

That's at least that, right? Three McDavid's a year? Yeah, he'd be making more than three McDavid's year, I guess. You're right, though. It's so much money. You don't care. You don't care. You can't care.

It's too much money to, yeah. Nope. Other trade, Raptors did indeed get Jacob or Jacob Pothel back. He was a Raptor left in the DeRosen trade. He back. So they got a center. All right.

Raptors, I don't know how far north here are these days, rat, but it's been a tough go this year. They won last night, but it is not pretty. I'm not far enough to get clam. Cam. Cram in my throat. What?

Cam? Cam, Birch. Tall. No, I don't have. The Raptors are only an hour and a half way. I may have packed it on the north. Okay. Well, now they go to center.

Let's hope that they can, you know, get this thing back on the right foot. Well, we have apparently a superstar power play expert, and he's horseshit. So I don't put a lot of stock of just saying that we have a center, so we're going to be good. Yeah, there's a lot that's gone wrong there. Let's go to golf. No, no, no. We're not done yet. Sorry.

It's going to become the worst flames deal in history. Come on. Carry on. It hasn't even started yet. All this judgment. The deal has not. even begun. So because it hasn't started, can you can you just take it back? Yeah, you got to we have still the receipt tree? Take that back to we haven't you you we haven't reused it. It's all here. You need to go the

speed of light for six months in one direction and then turn around and come back and then you could get rid of his contract. You need the time machine. Grab the pen out of his hand, punch him in the face, knock him out, knock him out, rip up the contract. Get that out of here. I don't know, man. I don't Quickly train them to Montreal for Suzuki. We were talking about movies and then you fell asleep. Weird, I could have sworn we were signing a contract. And so with all those drunken and NBA deals yesterday, NHL fans moaning, there's not enough interesting trades out there.

So if you're an NHL fan hoping for a deadline similar to the NBA begins Jeff Beliette. This entire league is either no cap space or is tanking and the biggest names are mostly depth guys and every GMs petrified of trading futures. So don't expect OV to move at the deadline like Durant just did, right? Late 30s superstar. Horvatt, that's not top tier. That's kind of next tier down. If Patrick Kane moves and if Jonathan Taves moves.

They're expiring deals, but yes, 100% star power. Those guys are both move, won't they? Kane still has star power. Jeff. Jeff. Dave's Jeff. I'm with Jeff, though. And I want a question for you to do, because you are very jemmish.

Or owner, you're owners, more owners. This is a question for the owners. What percentage of owners wish the CBA was a little bit different where you could actually go over the cap and add to your team? I think the- Most of what percentage you're like- Yeah, what you're talking about is a luxury tax versus a hard cap. And I think a lot of owners are competitive and want to win,

and it would solve a lot of their problems. But that's how we got to the place where Gary said, we need a hard cap. You idiot owners can't control your own spending. You brilliant business people can't stick to a budget when it comes to pro sports. So I feel like there's kind of that Jekyll Hyde part of it. I just think the players deserve more money. Yeah, there you go.

Right, Rhett? Thanks, Dean. You'd be a great agent. And his LPA, me and that Boston mayor, neck and neck. Wally-Booten-Hod. The TV in the states you're watching, Red, probably not only NBA trades, but I believe it is Hoops season for the NCAA.

Hoops. Hoop, Daddy. So in that spirit, here's number six Tennessee, getting knocked off by a buzzer beater. We love these, right? Buzzard beaters for days. Four point eight to go. Robbins has it.

Here comes Mignon with a path. Outside to Lawrence for the win. Oh, God damn Vanderbilt. You were up too, and you left them wide open for three. Oh, boy. I love a buzzer beater, hey, Red? That tournament's not far off. That's great.

Have you booked your vasectomy yet? I feel like that's the move. I can watch 18 college hoops games a day. It's everywhere. I'm just glad these amateur athletes are getting some exposure. Okay.

Let's go to golf. It is the signature event. Not for purse necessarily, although it's huge. Not for maybe your resume if you're a golfer, but for drunks, Dean, and for party scenes. It is the waste management Phoenix Open.

Every year on Super Bowl weekend. We have a bunch of Canadians in the field. Look at this. Good state of Canadian golf right there. McKenzie Hughes, Adam Svensson, Nick Taylor, Adam Hadwin, Corey Connors, Taylor Pendrith, who was T7 last week. Good Canadian contingent.

Ready to get beer spilled all over him on the stadium hole. What is the number 16? And if you need a reminder of how things can get in Phoenix during waste management, here's from our producer Alex. this was uh who who would that be it looks like me

on him my hair was short he's faking well just just stay with it he's going upstream here he's got a big phone call there he's uh

he's good he's good oh oh steady steady I can tell you from experience with curbs

yeah When you're that, I'd be careful yet. Lasered, you ain't going up and down that curb four or five times. It's going to get you. That's calling it a fake. All right. Well, you know, it was the same guy. There was a different clip where he does fall to the ground.

Yeah. The gravity eventually wins this epic struggle. Yeah. I don't feel like he's winning that battle much longer. The video does end. I don't think he stays upright. I'm surprised in a way that golf allows the waste management thing to take place. It's perfect.

It's the one thing golf doesn't have, right? But it's perfect for fans, right? Yeah, it is perfect. But it's, how hasn't some stuffed shirt idiot? Well, we can't have this for our game. I'm sure there's lots saying that. The fun suckers, the fun police step in. There's lots in golf too.

Many of them, they don't go play it. I think you probably got 30 to 45 decent events a year. So you just say, hey, the rod up your ass can settle down for one week out of the whole season. or don't attend. Exactly. And some players don't. 18 of the top 20 in the world. It's a $20 million purse.

One of the things the PGA's done with Live coming on, backed by all that Saudi money. They've upped the purse in certain number of events. This goes from like 12 to 20. So a huge, best field ever for this tournament. Should be fun. I just want the golfers to make more money. I just want the golfers to shotgun beers on the tea like real men do at golf tournaments.

Is that right now? Right now we'll see that. Okay, Rhett, we're into your segment. Bertie Chugs. You guys do the Bertie Chugs, don't you? Bertie Chugs. If you have Bertie Chugs, take a shot. Sure, yeah.

Right? You got to, come on. Three Puts chugs, out of bounds off the T chugs. Last Place, chugs. You know how I feel about golf. Yeah. I'm all, yes. Yeah.

Okay, to the Rett segment of the program. Yeah. First, you were a pugilist, a noted pugilist, Brett in your time. Can we get you to break down this fight between two fans in Dallas? Now, I don't know if someone's in the wrong seats here, but let's have a watch, walk us through this. This, this some sort of rodent here in the Dallas jersey. Yeah, the ferret's in trouble here. I'm impressed with the girlfriend's coming. Now the bounce straight back. That guy took a punch. He did. That's a big man with higher ground. That's a tough start. And this is good here. Listen to this.

Little boy. No, fuck that. Pardon the language. No, fuck that. So, A, you don't let someone high ground swing. You can't give up high ground. Credit for bouncing back, but you can't get more humiliated than being pinned by a larger

human, whisking his hands through your mullet. Saying little boy, little boy. I mean, you got worked. Your girlfriend's embarrassed. You tried to jump in and help you. That's a tough L. Now the move there. That's never good.

I only had that happen once in my life and it was not a good scene. Okay, pause. Finish that. The move there is for the mulleted stars jersey wearer. The ferret. If you're going, commit to it and you need to drill, you need to drill golf shirt guy right in the balls.

He will then double over. Then you jersey pull. Look at this right here. Oh, yeah, he gets tagged here. That's... He's looking. There's a little where his hands are. Get your hands up, son.

Where's your defense? He's got drinking his hands still. That's not going to last. Guy throws a hard right. Bang. It's on the button too. Yeah. He doesn't miss there.

I mean, it's balls, then jersey pull or, or uppercuts. You got to get them down to your level. You got to go knees, balls, something on the lower half to get him down a stair. And he did ask him, why don't you come down here and give up your... Yeah.

And Johnny Business Call with the earbuds. And it's like, I'm not going anywhere. I got high ground. You're right, Red. How did he pop back up? He's just like plasticism. Just gumby bouncing back up. Yes.

Yes. Now, in fairness, I was expecting when that punch went, that hit that kid was done. Yeah. And the thing is, you think his bell would be wrong. He's very rational.

He hit me first. Yeah, he said, no, no, right? Right. Fuck that. He just trying to kick me out. He took it like a champ.

It's impressive. Now, some days, you know, like Monday for, Rhett, it's just not your day. You're a little bit grumpy. You're not having it, and you just need to

unload somehow. For Red on Monday, it was leaving the group chat for this professional tennis player yesterday. Well, let's just have a viewing as frustrates. Very frustrates. Oh, really? Yeah. Good news is he's got plenty of other rackets.

No, that's good. As you know if he broke one. Oh, that's going to get the treatment as well. Three, four. Four. That's even done in five. Okay. Oh.

Well, this is getting out of hand now. I think that gives us a little indication of where his mindset is at right now. It's the most professional broadcasting and the largest tantrum I've ever seen a grown man. I have in tennis. I think that gives us a little insider as to where his headspaces. Well, luckily he does have more of that. I like that he spun the racket so he could smash it in different places. Yeah.

Did you do that? Both sides. This is a great move. It has happened before when someone goes to the equipment bag and continues to smash additional rackets. This is a Nick Curio special. Nick does this all the time. Well done. I don't know who this Barre is, but that's a temper tantrum top five in tennis I've seen.

My new favorite. You had a curios. Who else would be in that? Makes John McEnroll clearly to have a couple in there. Finally, Rhett, it's happened. Tattooed on my lip. All this. phony baloney schoolwork ret thing of the past.

Now we've told you about this chat thing on the internet. You can write essays for you. You haven't told me shit. I've told you. Okay. The AI. The link that I sent to you in the chat. That is the chat bot.

The problem is like, you know, if it's typed, well, people are just going to say, well, it's the chat bot. So what you need to do is attach the chat bot to the 3D printer and have a viewing of this. This is the few. of Rhett's children never do it work. That is an essay from chatbot written with a pen from a 3D printer. Your kids will never have to open another textbook, Red. Look at this.

Ryan Pike, you're on notice. Yeah, you watch your ass. Get this machine cooking in the back office. You'll be out of a gig. Look at that. If those teachers at my kid's school knew how much chat, the AI bot, was used in our home, they would be appalled.

Did he buy the high end? I got the report card right here, fellas, I think. Yeah. I got it right here from one of the young lads. Where to go? Oh, no. Lost it.

There was impressive. Yeah, great essay writing. Almost a robotic skill set. Ninety four. Wow. Yeah. So no more concerns about school the rest of your parenthood,

Rhett. That's the Pender Report. Pinda report. Take your kids out of school quickly and get them learned up on that AI. There you go. Village Honda does not condone this message. The views expressed by Red Warner are strictly those of Red Warner. Village Honda wants to buy your car.

Sell it to them. You'll get paid in 24 hours. No hassle. Get your no obligation appraisal today up at the Northwest Auto Mall. It's your dealership for life. You see them online at villagehonda.com. good people, taking care of good people. Well, luckily he's got more rackets over here.

I clearly see there. He's got, uh, you can see there's mindset as that. Uh, we are another day closer to the big game this weekend. Right me. Two paragraph, two paragraph, six year old or nine year olds version, a book essay on, I survived the Grizzly attacks of 1967. We had a lovely essay handed it in top marks. Top marks.

Again, we do not endorse Rett's recommendations. Don't condone it, but listen, you're going to send your kids to school, and then when they're done school after 20 years, they're going to have to go out and learn how to do the AI stuff. So I'm just going to skip the wasted 20 and go straight to the AI. You know what? No computer, no AI is going to be able to ever do and replace? This soup.

The smarts, the comedy, the knowledge, the expertise. We're good as gold, gentlemen. The odors that permeate through the walls here. Yeah. Major Tuddy. Major Tuddies. This Sunday, it is the big game. Where else are you going to be but at Grey Eagle Resort and Casino?

Pinder, Boomer, the Bar and Burner boys, Tan Man. Tan Man's just throwing back those pictures. We are going to be there on Sunday afternoon. We want you to be there with us. The pitcher and wings. special. $12 gets you a pitcher of beer and a plate of wings at the stage bar. If there's going to be overflow, that's the thing. There's no reserve seating. So you're going to want to get there, get there early, get your spot and be ready. They have blaze bar and grill, which will handle the

overflow crowd. But it's going to be a good day. I'm looking forward to it. But yeah, 12 bucks for a pitcher of beer and plate of wings. That's ridiculous. And some prizes as well. They've got the 65 inch Samsung TV and sound bar. You can go to the the website for Grey Eagle and get the details there. But yeah, after the game, we'll give away that TV and soundbar. Four draws for 100 bucks each for slot play. And you get to a pet Pinder's hair. Or high kick contests.

Can't do both. That's true. Half time. What's the over under? What's the over under for Pinder pitcher wing order? Well, I'm not driving there. So if someone wants to take the nation truck. Right.

That's great. I won't be driving it back. Well, the thing he's already said, if you want to go... I'll be giving you free wings. He'll be... Yeah, he'll have some wings, but at some point, there's going to be too many extra wings hanging around, getting in the way of the pictures.

I don't need all these wings in here. I've had a plight of wings. That's lovely. Again, everyone, we don't condone... This is the Griegel Park lot. We don't condone the moves of Ryan Pinder, his attitude. Attitude.

So come and be responsible. Have some fun with us. Be a normal human at Grey Eagle. This Sunday. That's their slogan. That's right. Be normal, be human. Unlike Pinder.

Soup, it's the big watch party. Lots of reason to come there. You said there's soup? Soup, wings, pictures of beer. It's all there for you. We'll see you on Sunday. And tomorrow we'll give away the spot at our VIP table. We've got a little reserved spot.

If you want to get in on that, still time. Send either to Pinders, social media, my social media, the Flames Nation, social media. Let's see what you got going. What are you wearing? One guy who, boy, I feel like he might be in the lead. He had five or six Eagles jerseys. Yeah, I saw that too.

It was like a Kevin Cobb jersey. Some bad jerseys, like some awesome ones. Oh, linemen, yeah. It might be, you know who he's cheering for. If he does win, you know who he's rooting for. I just don't know that we need super fans at the table. I'd almost prefer like a Jacksonville fan and a Vikings fan. Well, you'll be doing high kicks and spilling beer

and he'll be trying to watch the game. That's right. Yeah. You don't want to interrupt some. one's big game. Grey Eagle. Be human. Have fun.

Grey Eagle resort and casino. Also, some events coming up live at the Grey Eagle. Have some dates to announce in the near future. Really? So keep your ears to the ground, your eyes peeled, get your teeth wet. What do we say here? All of that is what you say for sure. Cut your feet.

Yeah, that's definitely what you do. Are you, how are you, you're in a good headspace, right? It's time for Ask Ret. Oh. How's my headspace ever change? It's one, there's only so much space. Except Monday when you left two group chats. Yeah, that was a different headspace.

There was a little irritable that day. Today I feel like you're in a good spot. I agree. I haven't eaten. You've had your chicken noodle soup, so you're in a good spot. Hope Street rental property management. Sayman and his staff locations Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary. They're the best at it.

They will find you. tenants, they will get you premium rental rates for your property. Everything that needs to be handled that is a nuisance to you that you want no part of. It's just, I wish I could get somebody just to handle all of that for me. Then Hope Street is for you. You can book a virtual meeting online, let Hope Street get after it for you. Canada's property manager of the year, the website for all the details and to get hooked up with Hope Street, Rhett. Sing it.

Hopestreet.com. There it is. Throughout the week, whenever something comes up in your life and you need, it's like, geez, I'm going to have to remember to,

just email it through. Askrette at Flamesnation.com. You don't need to wait till today or yes to do any time. Because I know, I'm, God, I wonder how you do that.

Askrette at flamesnation. com. I should just email ask rat. Hey, Rhett, is it okay if you come home from walking the dog and your kid is roasting

marshmallows over the toaster and ham, hammering s'mores. Oh, I don't see what's wrong with it. I would be impressed. I would ask for the next one. And, yeah, pour me a drink while you're out, a kid. Let's go.

What's the problem with having a prodigy? I feel like that'd be a huge boon to the family, wouldn't it? Boosy smores. Am I going to be upset with the kid for being, you know, using his noggin and brain and figuring shit out? No. Kudos to that young lad. I feel like the toaster is.

Is your toaster going to be able to, I need an open flame You're going to need more heat You know what? You know what? You know what? If you're not a person that likes them burnt It's probably great You're probably not going to risk burning

Of golden brown Catching them on fire I'm not sure I like the smores They're fine But people get so excited We gotta make s'm make s'mores I mean it's the experience is fun Because you get the kids

Are on the fire And they're doing the thing But it's It gets sticky on your fingers It's not. not it's not the smore that's overrated it's the marshmallow yeah might be i can get down with the graham cracker and i can get down with the chocolate i cannot get down with the whatever that's part of makes up a marshmallow that's difficult yeah the marshmallow yeah what is marshmallow made of

sugar and what what exactly we ever seen those jars oh i have you get that the puff the marshmallow puff in the jar? Yes, the jar. Back when I was a teenager back at the hometown, I was working at the grocery store. That was my job. I don't like this.

I dumped a case of marshmallow puff. It fell. I was stacking up because I had to go stock the shelf. So you had kind of the cart and you're putting boxes, boxes, boxes, boxes. And one of the boxes that was near the bottom wasn't full. Didn't know, right?

But somebody had taken like a bunch of the jars out. So I put the next box on there. Funk, it goes down. poof, jars of marshmallow puff glass and puff all over the... Oh dear. Not ideal. Because that shit's sticky, right? That's not going to clean up easy.

You're not just kind of, oh, I'll just get a broom. No. The broom will be stuck in it. Like tetherball off that thing. Luckily, though, I remember I was making about $3.50 an hour. Yeah. So, you know, I'll say it for your hard work. When you're bringing in that kind of dough, you've got to do some shit jobs.

It's quit. It's a hired gun. It's quit. Yep. Hey, Rhett. best Super Bowl party you've been to. Holy Super Bowl party.

Because it would be during the hockey season. Maybe you're on a road trip. It's just the one that Lance Balma and Johnny and Sean Rat? Was that Super Bowl? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I was. That's right. I don't know that I've had a lot of great

Super Bowl parties. Like, we watched the Super Bowl one year in a hotel restaurant in San Jose. We had a Super Bowl party at my house one day, but it wasn't overly exciting in Calgary. Really got to have those off days line up, I'd think, wouldn't you? To really get at it. Exactly.

Like, they're not typically the league, the NHL, even if you don't play on that day, you play the night before or the day after. They don't put a lot of stock and giving you a couple days to recuperate in between. So it was never a focal point. I bet you're your best Super Bowl parties post-playing. days it's got to be my best super bowl party was the great cup when the riders won and ridgeway kicked

that field goal against hamilton and they wore those sticky gloves right me and my buddy trevor ludeau were a three 10 gusted crescent and saskatoon hammering nachos and some pepperoni sticks and then the riders won and they hadn't won forever hallelujah what a super bowl it was a great Super Bowl. I'd rather be a rider than ever. Yeah, stink it. Was that the one where you got thrown out for peeing in a plant? Oh.

No, it was in 89. I wasn't quite old enough to get rip-roar and pissed and stand in a cop car with a sign rider flag. So no, I didn't, it wasn't asked to leave that. No, not that one. Hey, Rhett, is Luchich going to tune in? What? Troops?

Trobes, thank you. Is Luchich going to tune in Troops when the Rangers come to town next week? Next Saturday. Good game. If I'm Troops, I'll probably ignore the big men. What if you're Sammy Blay? That's not a hit him.

Excuse me. Sammy Blay should scrap them. Is Sammy Blay a scrapper, though? I don't know, but Sammy Blay's fighting for roster spots. They're pretty deep over there. I'd watch that. They got rid of Reeves, right? They did.

Yeah. Sammy Blay should not fight Luch. No one should fight Luch. I mean, Reeves should fight Luch. You what, Sammy Blay? He's not a fighter. He's a hard hitter. Yeah.

He's a punishing hitter. And he caught Luch, so get ready. But no, don't, I wouldn't be doing that. Wouldn't be doing that? There's no code anymore. You don't have to fight. You just can't, right? Like, what are you going to grab a guy, take an extra two?

I think, no. I think Luch will mention to Truba, I'm going to get you, or even that blaze, but I don't know the Truva has to or will answer that bell. We got a Frank bomb. Do you realize that?

Let's go. Frank bomb, Frank Baum, Franksar Valley, daily faceoff.com, our NHL insider, reporting that the St. Louis Blues are trading Vladimir Teresenko to the New York Rangers. Interesting. Rangers were already pretty good at putting the puck in the net. The power play did not actually rank that well,

compared to all the tools they have. Teresenko's wanted out of St. Louis for a while, but it's kind of played nice. They're out of it this year, looking to move some assets, tank had a no move of sorts. And I don't know that you can be much happier than heading to the Rangers right now

with how they've looked the last few games and where they're at in the standings. That's a big ad. Right side, correct? Yeah, right shooter. You have Jimmy V.C., Barclay, Capo, Caco, and Sammy Blay on that right side. So, wow.

Would he fit it? in was Zabanajad and Panarin or Trocheck and Crieder. Yep. We'll get to see him. Yes. Anywhere on the right there. So great news for Flames Fats. You get to see that show next week.

Well, I think, to be fair, he's going to the east. So, you know, one game aside, that's not a guy going to Edmonton. That's not a guy going to Minnesota or wherever else theoretically could align. Everybody bishing about the trades. That's two big names that have been dealt. Yeah. Granted, it's weeks away. Yeah.

I don't know. Everyone likes to be outraged, so whatever. Oh, there are no big trades in the NHL. I was like, we just had the wildest offseason ever for trades. We had our first sign and trade in the NHL with obviously Kachuk, inked, and then sent out. You know, there was no lack of big trades. It's just everything happened in the NBA yesterday, and people need to be outraged before they go to bed. So I guess I'll be outraged at the NHL.

You can shoot it. I was going to say between Crider and Panarin and Zabandajad and Teresenko, you talk about finishers. there's a few there 10 goals and 38 games this year 29 points you can shoot it I think he's sort of dispelled some of those concerns

around his shoulder when he came back last season had a really productive year 34 goals he's a big tank too 6-1-228 you tick boy you're in that nickname yeah

and for the Rangers that's a good point you make about the right-handedness there that's an asset they didn't necessarily have. Well, there you go. Frank Baum. Look at that photo. He's left handed, but they do play him on the right side.

Okay, so he places off one. My apologies. But there again. Can rip it. All right. Very nice. Ripping out. And last one for Ask Rett for Hope Street.

This one came up. I have no idea. I don't know that we've talked about it. Hey, Rhett, do you like Bingo? Oh. I don't know if I like Bingo. As a kid, my grandma played it all the time. I have fun memories of playing bingo with her.

She'd help you with the card and stuff. I have frustration. I can't. It's slow moving. My attention span isn't great. I remember buying bingo cards when, yeah, it was on TV. That's Saturday nights, I believe. Yeah.

You know what the move is now? You buy your cards at the store. Yeah. Because you're right. people kill time activity. It's not riveting. It takes a while. It's an excuse to get in the Buick and drive down to the community hall and next to you know, it's back. It's dinner time. What you're seeing now in the 2020s read, they will do this at pumps with punk rock music blaring and dudes covered in tattoos screaming out numbers and prizes are like tattoo gift

certificates and sex toys. It's unbelievable. Punk rock big look it up. We have always been the one. It's no disrespect. Everybody, you know, golf tournaments, golf tournaments. That has been on my list. Yeah. Let's do a make a bingo extravaganza. But how are,

let's spin it. Tunes, prizes, dumb, bleep, good food, something. I think it could be fun. Because you can drink while you play. You can listen to tunes while you play.

You can probably hammer a dart if you're in the right place and play. Come up with whatever games. Let's go. First person to get the, it's not like playing chess. You don't need silence here. It's time for the postage stamp.

I'd kick your ass at chess. Jess. I haven't played for about 20 years. He probably would, yeah. Very cerebral. Get the AI machine. So no, I don't like, I guess traditional bingo, not for me, but what you guys are talking about. Drunk bingo?

Shooters. Yes. Shooters. Yeah. Bingo. Yeah. Let's do. Boosy bingo.

You know what you always drink for. Under the O. 69. Thanks, grunk. It's Ascrat, a presentation of Hope Street rental property manager. We've been talking about them. They continue to grow. They're active on social media.

They are busy than they've ever been. They are Canada's property manager of the year. Sincerely, if you're looking to rent or looking to have a property rented, it is hopestreet.ca locations in Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary. It only took shame in like three weeks to get back. Remember I said he sent me a January 25th. He's busy. He answered him.

He finally got back to me yesterday. And how to go? Good news? Not for me, probably for someone else. I'm the middleman right now. I'm massaging different angles here for him, making things happen. Got it. It's a masseuse.

In the cut, five points. Just a little bit for the Redster. Just a taste. Just a taste. Friend bus is full. How about a point for Rhett? I have a feeling, even though we've been talking about it all week, and before we go, we'll do our bet-way bets for the Flames and Red Wings game here and get our final thoughts on it.

Thursday, Valentine's Day is coming up. I guarantee you nobody's really gone and done it yet. Have you? No. Have you? Valentine's Day's coming. No, I don't have. Every year I go buy cards and then I put them away, but I buy more than one, right?

Because then I don't have to go next year. And then you can't find the damn thing. Yeah. So at some location in my house in Calgary, there's a stack of cards that are meant to be used for Christmas, birthdays and valentines. And nothing. So you could break into Rett's house or... Give us that address.

We'll wheel buy. We'll grab those. But no, because Justin at Vina Nova, he set up the... He's like, why do we just do something? Come on in to the store. I mentioned Barnburner. Go on the website.

Try to make it as easy as possible. Venanova.com. Put Barnburner in the promo code. We'll throw in a fancy high-end box of chocolates to go along with your... lab-grown diamond purchase. As we've established, lab-grown diamonds. 80% in some cases, cheaper than an actual diamond.

And it's saying actual isn't even the right word because it's the same thing. The composition, it's all the same. It just makes more sense. And as you said, either spend less or you get more for what you're prepared to spend. Yeah. You got a budget. Knock the socks off that thing with big old diamonds all over the place. You want to save some money?

Get the same-sized diamond for. Boyle us. Chemically and physically, the same as a natural diamond. In some cases, the gemologists cannot tell the difference, even with their peepers. Looking there, I can't say. The peeper. I can't tell. That's right, because they're amazing.

It's labgrown diamonds. Venanova.com. The Stephen Avenue Place, second floor, go and see them. Do it quickly. Delivery options for you. They will walk you through all that. But again, use the barn burner promo code online or mention it when you go in and you'll get that box oh chocolates in addition.

Be a hero. Be a hero. Like us. With Viener Nova. Now we met's. Hit on that kind of wild trifecta thing that I threw out yesterday. I got one too.

It was, what, Rangers to win. Over six and a half. Over six and a half goals. And is Zabinajad snipe? A Zabinajad goal. Goal, yeah, there you go. And he got the last one, yeah. He got the last goal.

For the Rangers. I think. and we got it within one. Some late one, but yeah, good for... So what we're telling you. So we're so smart. So genius. We're smart when it comes to the Betway bets of the day.

Didn't you hit your other two? Because you had Dallas minus one and a half. 4-1 final? And I had that Caprisov, Panera, and Pedersen all getting points. Folks, I mean, I don't know what to tell you. I can't come to your house and make the bet for you. It's costing you money not to do it. Maybe not, but yeah.

It's probably not the right way. go about it. Be responsible. Be responsible. Betway bets of the day. Detroit Red Wings host the Calgary Flames tonight. I don't know how I feel about this thing. Oddly, is the team shaken up a little bit by this Rasmus Anderson thing?

They're moving guys around on that back end. Power play, top power play. You know what Weeger is going to step in, we think? Emotional game Monday in New York, lots of fights. It feels very much like a litmus test where this group's out tonight. Kind of struggled to find some realistic value.

So I'm just going to kind of limp in, here. The power play, it's more on the Detroit penalty kill. Their penalty kill is 21st in the league. Their special teams, Detroit, not great. 21st. Codry gave up that puck, breakaway goal the other night.

He got rocked. I think his attention is... He handled it like a man. Yeah. He did say he handled like a man. I think he'll be on point. I think he'll be on point tonight. I'm going to take a Flames money line win and one point from Cadre to get me a plus 150. And the power

play. Cadry, get a power play point plus 200. Okay, I'm the same game, obviously, and I have found the value. I know you're enough time. It's because I was very busy.

Yeah. I found that value. So we're going to go, Andrew Mangupani over two and a half shots. This line's been sensational. Coleman 8 time goals, Backland's scoring, three point nights here.

Manjipani's looking like not first half mangy panney, as we'd hoped. Two and a half shots. He's hit five of the last eight games. Plus 125? Yeah. Yeah.

And Moe Sider, 11 points his last 10 games. 10 of them have been assists plus 140 for a single helper. He's on a heater. Mo Sider. Betway bets of the day. A good player.

Yeah, and a great name. Great name. Yeah, I don't like the Ritz part there. You can Mo. Come on. The nickname like Mo, you better use it. Bellway bets of the day. Get the app.

Be 19. Be responsible. The Betway bets of the day. So what are we talking? Five o'clock start, Calgary time. Yep. That's seven. neighbors time, Rhett, and you and I for the burner tonight.

After burn. We're going to have to be a little bit, a little bit later than normal. Okay. Good. We're talking about it. I got to play catch up. So this will be done it, let's say, 7.40-ish-caldry time. We could be rolling if we're patient, maybe eight-ish, but so that's 10 Eastern.

You want to start 10-30? 10.30? No, close to 10, 15. You'll be just fine then. Yeah, great. It's not worth me. It's fine. Now, what are you guys talking about this?

What is this? What is this? What is this? What is this? So this is after burner. This is a show that is, in fact, you've been involved in about half them. After burner? And it's after Flames games.

You want a little recap? What happened in that game last night? Because I saw the show, but that was before the game. And I need something new to listen to all my drive in. There's nothing else is any good. You need the boys here. You don't need to do that. See, there are these my kids yelling in the back room.

Oh, I see. Yeah. playing stupid top 40 shirt. Come on. I need something to listen to. Get the afterburner for you. I'll be talking flames, wings, second of a five game road trip. Third.

Third of a five game road trip, second of a four game road trip, which everyone is. And look at this. Here's after a road trip. You must have had a concussion since then. This was the last afterburner right there. So after every game on YouTube on the Flames Nation, YouTube channel. That's right. Afterburner with an assortment of you or me or Red, it'll be a combo.

And then if you want to watch it on you, YouTube you can, but also you can download it to listen to on your drive to work in the morning. It'll show up wherever you find Barnburner, Dean. If that's Spotify, Apple, any other podcatchers you use, go get it. I don't know whose idea that was, but it's a pretty good one. It's a good logo too. Subscribe and like and like and five star and we'll talk to tomorrow or tonight, depending how much of a night out of you are and when this thing gets done. Got a feel on it, retro? I don't like it. Oh, boy. What is our after burner record? I don't think it's very good. I can do it for you. I have the schedule right here. Afterburner 1, Jan 3.

Winnipeg. They lose in regulation. Afterburner 2. Chicago, first of the road trip, they fall in overtime. Right. Markstrom Hook and Vlodar comes in. St. Louis, they blow a two-goal lead after 40 minutes, fall in overtime. St. Louis, again, they get a victory.

That moves us to 1 in 3. Nashville, they lose 1 in 4. Colorado, they lose 1 in 5. Columbus, the Eco to win. two and five. Chicago somehow they lose. One in six. And then they lose to the Rangers.

They've had one goddamn win. Yeah, after St. Louis. The second St. Louis won, the one they didn't blow. Now, you've got some loser points in there. Yeah, I mean, as long as you come home, more points than games. More points.

So you don't like it. You don't like it. I understand why it isn't like it now that we just revisited that. Yeah. It's the afterburner effect. Jesus. Can we cancel after Burnett tonight? I'll go ahead.

Go ahead. I'm just, Anderson being out is a huge hole. That's a lot of minutes to fill with muck. And Detroit is not a pushover. No. They're fighting to stay in it. I just,

I don't know. I mean, it's great. Vlodar's on a heater, but it's never been done. So that's speaking of accomplishing it. And it's Detroit. You've been in Detroit for two F and days.

And yuck. Get a. Got to win one for Rasmus. Get one for the... Maybe. Rasmus. Maybe. Go get it.

Well, Dar. After Burner tonight, download it, subscribe. You got it in the morning. We'll be back with the Friday show with further thoughts. That's going to do it for us today. Thanks for being a part of it. Appreciate you. Take care.

yourself all the best felt oilers suck see you buddies
