Starting point is 00:00:15 We are underway. It's the show that we call Barnburner. It's Boomer. It's Pinder here in the Tower Chrysler Studios. And they're in his kitchen, the Redster. Ret Warner, who is giving us a visual. There's a new ad. You have candy canes on each side of your microphone.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Oh, look at that. It's the elf. Goofy little bastard. What's he doing? Was he up to some shenanigans? Chenette. Well, he's spying on me, the little, bugger.
Starting point is 00:00:46 I know. He's got the wrong mic again. Are you on the wrong mic? Do you want to tap your mic? Yeah, nailed it. Yeah, wrong mic. You could switch the mics there. How does this happen?
Starting point is 00:01:02 Well, I can't be blamed. Now they can boom. Yeah. We were just talking. Yeah. Well, but I, yeah. We have a lot to get to today. We'll talk about the California.
Starting point is 00:01:14 Flames looking for their third straight win as they are at home to the Minnesota Wild. They can go four and five. Four or five on the Stamstead. Today Wednesday? So this is a wild on a Wednesday? This is a wild on a Wednesday. Wow. With a superstar.
Starting point is 00:01:29 We always would have fun at the expense. It'd be, oh, boy, it's the wild on a Wednesday. Jacques LaMere and Nick Baxter would come to town with Marion Gabbrick. Hopefully you'd get a Gabbrick. and not much else. A lot of West Walls. Yeah, there's a lot of West Walls. Who else?
Starting point is 00:01:50 I mean, God, those were dreadful times. I expect it'll be more exciting tonight. Caprizov is a legit superstar in this league. He has goals in six straight, a 12-game point streak. He's doing things that no wild player has done before. Yeah, he's beyond anything the Wilde's ever had. And he's now in that category of like, Okay, so we have Connor, we have Austin Matthews, we have now Robertson into the fray,
Starting point is 00:02:18 we have Panarin, I think he's there. I think he's the best Russian player in the league. He's an absolute force, every shift out there. It's, I think Flames fans who haven't seen him live will be in for a treat tonight if they're there. He's playing well, the team is playing well. I mentioned he had 12 points in 12 straight, 19 points in those 12 games. He has nine power play goals. That's second only to Leon.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Leo. And right now the Wild as a team are playing very well. They've won four in a row. It's their best stretch of the season. And we know it'll be Mark Andre Fleury in the Nets for the Wild. He's been their starter. He's been their guy. No shock there.
Starting point is 00:02:58 As he's still got it. And they survived a bit of a scare at the hands of the Dallas Stars on Sunday. They haven't played since Sunday. They were down 5-1 in that game. Or sorry, they were up 5 to 1. And then Dallas roared all the way back. said they were playing while. I'm like, hang on. Didn't Dallas come back of them? But they did close that out and win it.
Starting point is 00:03:14 They did win that. And it was ugly, but they got past Anaheim, which is kind of how games against teams like Anaheim go often. We saw it with Arizona and the flames a couple nights ago. One six of seven is where the wilder at coming into this game. And they've needed to. They didn't get off to a hot start. They're also missing some bodies.
Starting point is 00:03:31 No Ryan Hartman. We just had a monster year for them last year. Jonas Brodine out for a while. I believe is expected to miss this game tonight. But, you know, I mean, we're very sportsy to start this show. I'm sorry, very sporty. Rhett, what's going on in your world?
Starting point is 00:03:46 We got the, again, the pre-show. I feel like at some point we'll be doing at least five minutes of the pre-show. If you'd like to sponsor the pre-show, talk to the Wolverine. All you need to do is contact our sales, Wolverine. Sponsorship opportunities. You got the bad news regarding Vaughn Miller of the Buffalo Bills. Snaped. My bills are in trouble.
Starting point is 00:04:08 I heard a big F-Bull. I heard a big F-Buller out for the year. I wasn't sure if he'd spilt his coffee on his lap or what had happened. Yeah. Hurt my hand, actually. I smashed the table. I'm not excited. I'm not happy.
Starting point is 00:04:21 He was making big plays when the bills needed him. So it's just another bill's season. Tumultuous. It is tumultuous. This is the NFL. You're going to lose good players. Every team does. It stinks.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Now they're getting a little healthier too, though. Tredavius whiteback. So how's, How's the shoveler? Because of course, she's a Bill's fan, but also a Yankees fan. And the news coming down this morning that Aaron Judge is returning to the pinstripes. She must be elated. Didn't even realize that.
Starting point is 00:04:52 The shoveler was busy with Christmas gifts this morning, so I don't think she got the news. But I'm sure when she pops into Grandpa's house, he'll let her know and they'll celebrate with a shot. She was drinking Crown Royal at her grandmas the other day. Really. Interesting move. Around 11.30 a.m. With Nona.
Starting point is 00:05:15 She's one of us now. That's a good Canadian rye. That is a good Canadian rye. So what? She sent me a picture. Special occasion or... Drinky, drinky. Monday. Just waltzing out the door with the purple velvet bag.
Starting point is 00:05:31 You're like, what's going on here? I was looking, have you had... They've expanded their lineup. They got into the apples and the caramels and stuff. What's a blended rye? Because that's one of their new ones. It's the blended.
Starting point is 00:05:46 They got the classic. It's like a smoothie. Is it? You have a couple different ryes you're putting together, but I don't know what you're accomplishing or what the label would indicate about the taste. Probably it's smoother, right? I like that's good call.
Starting point is 00:05:59 I guess what I'm saying is, I feel like we need to. Kind of got to maybe investigate. A blended rye whiskey is a mix of of whiskeys, which 51% of which must be a straight rye whiskey. These quality of blends run the gamut from those made by economical blending, less than stellar spirits, to creative craft spirits made by artfully mingling great whiskeys. Well, I mean, you're a mingler. You would know about the mingling.
Starting point is 00:06:27 I'm an artful mingling. You are an artful, artful mingler. So are we, so is that, are we saying that's not as good? It's, yeah. I think they're saying it could be both. There you go. You could mix some trash. together or you could have two whiskeys that make magic together.
Starting point is 00:06:43 I think it's very Canadian. Is it? So what do they got there? Is that the regular, just the straight crown? Oh, yeah. Crown or is it? Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo and New Orleans to the biggest Crown Royal consuming communities in the whole US of A.
Starting point is 00:07:00 And Buffalo makes sense being like a almost adopted Canadian type place. But New Orleans didn't see that coming. But they, but they drink it. straight. Yeah. Like the first time I went out in Buffalo, McKee's like, what's absolutely,
Starting point is 00:07:19 you want to do a shot and you're young, right? So absolutely I want to do a shot. It's like, Crown Royal. I'm like, what? Crown Royal.
Starting point is 00:07:26 What are you talking about? Yeah. So that's what they do. Call my shot with ginger ale and six ice cubes, please. My brother has puked more Crown Royal shots than any
Starting point is 00:07:39 dental rep in the history. Oh, Trev. Good for him. I didn't know that that was a stat that they came to track. That's amazing. Yeah. And like you said, shot, because you know, you're young, so of course you say yes.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Or Pinder six days ago. Six days ago, Thursday. Yeah. Roughly. Do you get excited Pinder and order shots? I don't ever order them, but they always end up arriving. It's not me. It's the company.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Do you don't say no? I can't say no. Like, I feel like once it cross the 40 threshold, if you're ordering shots, you're just, you're guaranteeing blackout. I, I, you're ruining a day, probably two. Yeah. And so I'm not ordering. Cross the threshold. But even if you drink them, I know that's all.
Starting point is 00:08:29 I mean, if you want next level, get retro the redster to have a couple shots and look out. Yeah. The party's going to go up a notch. Yeah. I rarely, rarely, rarely, rarely do it. I watched Canada, Spain with Tim the Booze guy. And he always, as per Tim the Booz guy rules, orders a round of Jameson's, I'm like, dude, no, no dude. It's noon and it's soccer.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I don't need this. Now, I guess shots you can have into your 40s or 50s or whatever, but I feel like when we were dumb young, it was always about the prairie fire, sex on a beach. It was the goofy shots, right? Now you can have a shot at tequila or bourbon or like you say Irish whiskey or whatever. It's maybe the more mature shots. Or just having things neat in a sniffers glass or something. Yeah. But you're right.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Before it was like sugary and crazy and what a name. I need one of those. But you're right. You could just have. Baja roads. Yeah, exactly. You don't need to. You could just have it on some ice.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Or just neat. And just drink it. Yeah. Yeah. And not ram it in your gullet. Yeah. When's the last time you've done shots? Although you guys are lots of fun.
Starting point is 00:09:44 I feel like it was with Tim the booze guy. Last St. Paddy's Day. It was. We were on a heater that day. I was sleeping in a lobby. Oh, boy. So, okay, now, because I need to ask you then.
Starting point is 00:09:57 So you're down on shots. Is that what you're saying? You're saying, watch out. I'm not down. I've, I've aged through shots. Then let me ask you. about jello shots because I know you do
Starting point is 00:10:11 completely different I'd see you do like the jello shot you're not shooting it's different it's it's booze candy that's what that is different category yeah I don't know that I'll do like
Starting point is 00:10:22 the jello shots or the vodka gummies that people just pour don't you just soak the gummies and vodka doesn't that feel like Bill's tailgating expertise right there oh I was at Bondo's Christmas party the one year and did the jello shots and the gummy bear
Starting point is 00:10:38 vodka, whatever things, and I ralphed all over my driveway. Oh, boy. Yeah, could hardly get out the door. Because I, if I'm not mistaken, I seem to think that you, you would encourage the jello shots.
Starting point is 00:10:54 I was like, just some jello shots. It's good times. It's good times. Your birthday, the stupid birthday. There's jello shots. Oh, there was definitely, yeah. That's a, that's long time ago, my birthday. That was when you crossed the 40 threshold. that's right
Starting point is 00:11:07 there you go that's right I feel like though if you went to a Christmas shot if you went to a Christmas party and there were green and red jello shots you'd probably have one of each just to say you did
Starting point is 00:11:19 you would and he'd say look out everyone I'm doing shots I'm gonna grab on for the ride or get out of the way Ralph in my driveway put on those yeah
Starting point is 00:11:31 what do we want to do first talk about you or these tickets for tonight's wild flames matchup. You want something serious and happy, or do you want something disappointing and nonsense? So then let's do this. Tonight, Mad Rose Pub has been our hookup for Flames tickets and great food and good times. I don't know if...
Starting point is 00:11:51 20 beers on time? I don't know if cello shots are on the... I don't think they're allowed to. On the menu there. But today, we threw it out there on the social media. It is Canadian Armed Forces Night over at the dome, the 50-50 drop. is going to go towards supporting the veterans. And on the old Twitter, we just did Twitter today,
Starting point is 00:12:12 I think it was just on the Twitter. The tweet. The pair of tickets for tonight's game going to Kerry. Congratulations to Carrie Stevens. Carrie nominated her husband. So Andrews got the tickets, but it's Carrie that brought it to our attention. Thank you, Carrie.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Thank you, Carrie. Thank you very much. So the Wolverine will be stalking you to get you those tickets. And because now after tonight's the end of that, five-game homestand, that dreaded five-game homestand that was complaining about. St. Louis on the 16th? Yeah, three, three-game roadie coming up, Friday, Saturday, Monday. Columbus, Toronto, Montreal, and Hartford. Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh. That's right, Hartford. So, so congrats, Kerry. Stay tuned for your next chance to win.
Starting point is 00:12:58 While we're really kind of, because we got very sporty, now we've diverted, now I need back to real life. Two days ago, or was it yesterday, you began your juice cleanse? On Monday's show, I told you at the end of the Pender Report, I was going to be an asshole for three days beginning yesterday. Yesterday was day one of my juice cleanse, which I got guilted into doing because I stumbled home hung over and were drunk and I couldn't say no to anything. So an asshole only because you were starting the juice cleanse.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Like you were kind of calling your shot as if before maybe you weren't? Like, if there's a normal asshole barometer, I would be, like, moving towards the red. Yeah, peaking on the asshole. So this is, this video we're about to watch is yesterday at dinner time. This is day one. So, so how did it start? Was, was, is it for out of health? Is it because the holiday season's coming and you just want to get in front of it?
Starting point is 00:13:54 Or what was the Genesis? Oh, yeah. What? The Aussie Sheila saw it on sale and thought, this is a good time to do this. And I was in no position to refuse. Redd, have you ever done a juice cleanse? Have you ever kind of... It's not a fast as we're going to find out, but a juice cleanse?
Starting point is 00:14:12 Many a cleanse. Look at this, the temple. Many cleanses through this temple. Like I said, I just yacked after the jello shots. Cleansed. Then you cleanse right after. That's right. That's a cleanse.
Starting point is 00:14:24 I've done lots of cleanses. So how productive were the cleanses? I did a pill fat kind of cleanse and... I got so dehydrated. I got up at three in the morning because it hits you fast, right? And you got a sprint to the can. Right?
Starting point is 00:14:42 So you hop out of bed and then you get the woozies and I face planted right into the door. Oh dear. The shoveler thought it. The shoveler thought it was over. The big man went down. Face first. Just headbutting my.
Starting point is 00:14:57 He's dead. I'm moving back to Buffalo. We're rich. Yeah, I thought you'd be more broken up, honey. Anyway, so you started the juice cleanse. How is it going? I'm fine. No complaints.
Starting point is 00:15:13 I wish I could have coffee. No coffee. So you have the bottles of juice. You buy the kit for the week or whatever it is, right? It's just eight juices every two hours or six of them a day. So every two hours, for 12 hours, you have a juice. That's it. There are different little juices, whatever.
Starting point is 00:15:29 And then I'm allowed to drink tea and water, and that's it. Herbal tea, no caffeine. And the other 12 hours? I'm sleeping. Nothing. No. Shut the mill down. No more.
Starting point is 00:15:39 All right. So I'm going to wandering into the pantry being like, this is a pretty useless space now. I keep walking in here out of habit, but I can't do anything here. But it was your wife. It's her idea. I'm like, okay, I'm with you on this. You know, I'm not going to bail on you. Talked about it for a while.
Starting point is 00:15:54 Get mentally prepared. Right. We're going to do this. It might not be easy, but we're going to do it. So we've got your update. As we go back to yesterday, we have video. evidence of how your wife is doing. You have news?
Starting point is 00:16:11 I can't do it. Can't do what? I'm hungry. I'm angry and I have a headache. It's a fast. You're supposed to be hungry. It's not a fast. It's a cleanse. And I can't do it. I'm out. I need dinner.
Starting point is 00:16:25 I need ice cream tonight. That's great. It's not a fast. It's a pulled shoot. That's what it is. That's what that is. Right. Through that in the old family chat. That's not even 24 hours. No, she couldn't get to dinner time. Soft. I need ice cream. Now. I need dinner immediately. I'm having ice cream now. Yeah. That being said, she probably doesn't need the cleanse as much as you. Certainly not if it's about liver health.
Starting point is 00:16:59 I sent you a message back when you forwarded that to me. There was, again, one of those things just kind of got too much time in your hands. something. My wife is this cabbage soup diet that, right, that people, if they're going in for surgery or whatever, you have this soup for a week and you drop away, whatever. There's a wild rose one that people do. Yeah, soup sounds great. I love soup. Let's do it. Make the soup. Had it for lunch. I think by suppertime, about the same amount of time in. Day one. My wife very similar. No, without carbs. I need carbs. I need food. food now. I'm not doing it.
Starting point is 00:17:40 It's like, this, this was kind of your idea. Shut up. I'm hungry. Get out of my way. To eat. So it was a very, very parallel universes there. Yeah, I was not shocked to see that. She was talking to big game.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Yeah. And so then I met the, the crossroads of, she's like, well, are you, what we'll do is we'll just freeze them and have a juice every morning. What do you mean, we? She said, well, are you going to do it? I'm like, well, I don't know. I kind of been prepared it. And I've, like, done nothing on my count.
Starting point is 00:18:07 calendar for two days. Yeah. So do I like throw it in her face? Like it's a cakewalk super easy for me or do I like, okay, I'll have some dinner with you. I don't know what you should do. She's just got to change her. Just keep it up because it's not throwing it.
Starting point is 00:18:20 She's got to change her perspective on this. There you go. You're proving to her that she could handle it and do it. Also a certain little dominance. That wouldn't be the worst. Yeah. Oh, that thing you quit? Like 10 hours in?
Starting point is 00:18:34 Yeah. No sweat. Yeah. So did she have some? Oh. Food and ice cream? Oh, it couldn't. So it's over.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Put some rice on. I'm going to reheat this. So the boys fed. It's good. I put the rice on. I thought those were the kids. You didn't say you're quitting. The first time you're usually the first time.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Like the first time I did it, I was not happy. And it was more of that cabbage soup kind of one. It wasn't exactly that, but it was some book this natural path gave me. And I started it. And literally by dinner, I was hallucinating. My head is. spinning headaches, you drooling. It was not good.
Starting point is 00:19:10 This is a pretty common thing for me. You usually drink so much you don't want to eat for a full day. So really today it begins. Now it starts. So you're still on. Yeah. I'm doing okay now. Like no,
Starting point is 00:19:22 you think it'd be nice, but it's not like I've been hungry. I don't really feel hungry. I just don't want to think about it. You should have, you should have started it on after your, you shouldn't have that last meal. Why?
Starting point is 00:19:36 Like, Why does it have to start? Because you could have had supper and then had a juice before bed and then you'd be, you could eat tomorrow. I don't know how it works. Just three days. That's all. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Three days and not eating. So you're golden then. I don't know. It should get harder. It hasn't really been hard yet. It's kind of annoying. That's all. Have you had, because somebody said, if you see food commercials on TV,
Starting point is 00:20:01 a lot of that, are people, are you around others eating? I had to make. dinner for the boys last night and I'm like reheating stuff in the pan. I'm like, oh God, this smells amazing. Yeah, that would be hard. And then normally you'd like lick a spatula and then put it in the sink or something.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I'm like, ugh. Oh, you're tough. You're tough, I believe in you. I know you can do it. I keep thinking about Friday. Netherlands, Argentina, Haitian pizzas, pints of beer.
Starting point is 00:20:32 But see, that's the whole thing. You completely. ruin like that's the other thing about both. No, this isn't about a cleanse that I need. This is about doing it and getting it done. Yeah, this is, I'm like what's happening here. I'm very nervous about this.
Starting point is 00:20:46 What do you mean? Boom, you're going to do it? You're getting it of juice, boom? You're having a juice pinder? Some Richard behavior here. Is that the juice? Did you buy it? The worst thing would be is if somebody
Starting point is 00:21:01 starts eating in front of you, you know? That'd be rough, right? Oh. What is this? What is this? This looks like. I haven't smelled anything yet. It looks like a box from our buddy.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Oh, no. It looks like a box from our buddy. It's Bondon. Oh, it's a potato salad. No. What do you mean? No. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Dig in, Dean. Digging, big fella. I don't want to hear it. Give him the juice to go as a pender. Crowfoot Circle Northwest. Bonton Meatmarket.com. I can't eat. Can I swing a hammer when I'm doing this cleanse? Drop a shovel on this guy's forehead.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Do you want to do the Pinda Report while I eat or what you want to do? Sure. See, here's the thing about Greg. Now, before you get, just... I know, I know. I'm not going to do this to you the whole time. Here you see it on the screen. 28, 12 foot circle.
Starting point is 00:22:18 You know, Rhett, when you're eating some of this, and Greg, Greg Keller, our buddy, puts in the extra bacon. You have the bacon. You got to go extra bacon. Oh, sorry, are we on? Okay. He also, he wanted to get it.
Starting point is 00:22:35 No, it's good because let, let Pender stay busy. He can do the Pender report. You continue. I will. But before I go, he said it's easy if he stays busy. Before I go further, though.
Starting point is 00:22:46 So he wanted to take a run at you. Good. Yeah. He also kind of wanted to include you, Red. I mean, this was, uh, equal, equal shots. Getting some hunger pangs. Oh!
Starting point is 00:23:01 What I've done. Those are the best. Those, Rhett? Yeah, those are the best. Oh, my. Our Wagu. Yeah, right there. Tomahawks.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Oh, Yves. Geez. They say Ryan on them. I like that. There you go, Ryan. I once had a smoker with my name on it. There's your.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Oh, man. Oh, and he puts a, look at that. Couple thorough. I doubled the order by accident. Why? Whoops. Look that, hey? Oh, it says,
Starting point is 00:23:32 Boomer? Does it say Boomer on there? Oh, it does. A bunch of meatheads? Oh. I better dive back in and see if there's one for Red. I didn't see it. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Can you send meat across the board? I don't know you can. Son of a. It's not looking good, Red. Oh, dear. But what he did include, something for you? Yeah, something for Red. Something for Red.
Starting point is 00:24:09 You've always wanted a flames jersey. I've been to watch out. I want to get any of this delicious potato salad on this jersey. Four of the Barnburner Studios, Greg from Bonton, one of our first and proud sponsors. We know what. Topshel! Top shell!
Starting point is 00:24:34 Top shell! Top shell! Top shell! I love it. So we'll be putting that up in the studios. We'll get you to sign it if and when you ever come back. Yeah, somewhere on the top shelf. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:46 So there you go. Well, the bills aren't winning, so I'm coming home. I think that this, I thought about when Greg was talking about the, we might, it's Mary Beefmas. We might need to bring, we're bringing beefness back. We do the turkey and I love turkey. We talk about this. I love Turkey.
Starting point is 00:25:06 But if you get one of those prime rib roasts, get a nice big roast. Yes, that's, the UG does that all the time. He's like, why am I doing turkey? I'm going with the prime ribs. rib roast. Come on. You kid me? And now he's going to, you guys are going to do a a wigoo? Oh man.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Yes, please. Those are huge. Yeah, they are monsters. That's work a great, Dean. That remote is dynamite. I got two. Well, I got a good meal set up for when the fast is over. It's not a fast. Yeah, only what, a couple more days? Yeah, that's fun. I'm going to eat. I'm starving. I haven't eaten. You do what you got to do. That's fun.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Can we do the Pinder report now? Let's do it. Okay, well, it's out of sequence. I'm throwing Alex and everybody for a loop, but I didn't realize how hungry I was until I started eating there. Yeah, some of us don't realize how hungry we are until certain things happen. That's right. We'll do the Pinder report.
Starting point is 00:26:02 A presentation of Village Honda. They've extended. It's two months, they're two months or the two, whatever it is. I'm sad I'm rattle. Two million dollar buy an event for one more month. They had two million dollar budget. They're buying used cars. you want used, you know where to go.
Starting point is 00:26:17 You could also win a cruise for two only at Village Honda in the Northwest Auto Mall, 76, 63, 110th Ave, Northwest, and online at VillageHonda.com. You know what those cruises usually have? What's up? Oh, free food. All you can eat. All you can eat. A buffet. Damn it.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Everybody's coming up food. Ah! All right, we'll start with Calgary Flames. Start any time. We'll do this. Just quit, Pender. You won. You won, man. I'm still quick. Honestly, if I get into any point where it feels difficult, then I will quit.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Okay, now, hang on. Hang on. Oh, I know what's going. There's one here for you, too. I'll just hand that over to you now, just so you've got it there with you. That is like a good 20 pounds of potato salad. Because it'd be one thing if he sent one potato salad for us to kind of share, but, Frigg, you did dive in like a caveman, so. This is making it harder now.
Starting point is 00:27:22 All right, flames are in action tonight. And you can't eat potato salad unless you've kind of got like a fork and a... Okay, I'll leave this for Friday morning. Friday morning. We'll hammer that. I don't know if it's any more tempting or hard because it's like right beside you now. It's Greg's potato salad. This is going to be the Mount Everest of Climes here.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Greg, this might be the best potato salad you've ever made. He's such an asshole. There's so much bacon and dill in it. It's so good. Dill. Good news in Flames Land yesterday, potentially, about what could be happening next. season in the NHL fellows.
Starting point is 00:27:56 I don't know if you caught wind of this, but news coming out of Edmonton, potentially good for the flames. Oh! Well, looks like a Heritage Classic could be
Starting point is 00:28:05 coming to Edmonton next year. Not a done deal at all. The Heritage Classic, of course, you saw Calgary play against Winnipeg Jets 2019 and Regina in the fall. The original was in 2003,
Starting point is 00:28:16 I believe, between the Oilers and the Habs. And why is this good news for the Calgary Flames? Well, apparently, according to Jason and Gregor, they might be the lead candidates to play opponent against the Calgary Flames. Ryan Pike has more.
Starting point is 00:28:33 So does Gregor or someone else with a tweet. There's three tweets on this. All right. So the Flames might be there. There we are. Jason Greger notes Flames likely to be the opponent, not that it's a done deal, but that it's very plausible. So get your bags packed.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Get your border issues solved. Pay off the CIA or CIS or whatever it is, Rhett, and be ready for. potentially Battle of Alberta outdoors in Edmonton as soon as next fall. That'd be kind of fun. Do you remember the original? Especially if it's not, yes, because I know the guy that streaked that game. Oh, dear. Yeah, it was minus 18, which doesn't feel that bad, but with the wind chill, it was around
Starting point is 00:29:15 minus 30. And the moment that sun tucked around the corner of Commonwealth. And they also decided to play the alumni game for two and a half hours before the three-hour game. that's a long time outside. Ooh. Good times. A little long, little tedious.
Starting point is 00:29:32 My brothers go, I think I'll just wear jeans and running shoes. I'm like, you idiot, wear everything you own. Pretend you're going skiing for a week. What the hell's wrong with Bob? Smart enough, Bob. He was young back then.
Starting point is 00:29:43 He was a first year university student. A lot of malted hops and bong resin in his dome. All right, let's move along there. There's the, that's not Carrie Price. It was Jose Teodor with the toque. Thank you for that. And a lot of historic moments.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Tonight, it's the Flames and the Wild. They've shared a lot, Minnesota and Calgary over the years. Your good pal who won't call you back. A couple milestones against the Wild. Goal number 300 and 500 against Minnesota. So the crack smoking staff or the crack, what do we call here? The Crack Staff at Flames Nation, found the goals. Let's have a watch.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Verse number 300. That'd be good. Oh, yeah. That looks like a Jerome there. Yeah, just threw it on that. Not even pretty. Was I on the ice? I think you scored in that game,
Starting point is 00:30:38 but someone else's weren't fours. So look out. Butzies there's so. Oh, boy, you didn't score in that game. Sorry, Rhett. I think that's the... That might have been 500? Yeah, and this would be 300.
Starting point is 00:30:50 This is the game you scored in, yeah. Look at that. That's my pass. Was that me passing? Oh, look, can you join the rush? It says. F3, Warner? Oh!
Starting point is 00:30:58 Oh, man. Whoa, that was a goal. Top shell. Top shell. Top shell. What was going? Dude, what are you doing after? I've never seen you this place on the ice.
Starting point is 00:31:08 And then that led to this, which was Jerome's 300th. Wow. How about that? Top shelf. Manny for Nass. Emmanuel. Manny's going to manny. There you are.
Starting point is 00:31:23 So a little history. That was Noah Adler from the Flames Nation account letting us know goals. What about the smoothness of that? stride. Yeah, that pass right there. Wow. Wow. And just keep going.
Starting point is 00:31:36 And unlike Kevin Rooney, you got into the offensive zone. You knew what you were doing. Short-handed, by the way. Short-handed. There, folks. Just just so you know. Looks like a Calgary Powerplay, but okay. No, that was the next goal.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Oh, sorry. Yeah, okay. This is the next goal. Very good. I take it back. Power Play Stud. Yeah. You always moaned.
Starting point is 00:32:01 They never put you in the power plate. I've handed stud. I have like four short-handed goals in my career. Really? So not just Jerome's big goals, but Jerome also had a special night against the wild. They sent number 12 to the rafters on March 2nd. Here we go. 2019.
Starting point is 00:32:21 It was a great night. Everyone was out on the red carpet. And in honor, Mike Smith, just before COVID, set a campfire on the ice in this honor. Oh. This is a year before COVID. It was. Remember this?
Starting point is 00:32:34 A one potato, two potato, three potato, four. A five potato, six potato, seven potato more. I got to play this. Potato. It's the last thing I do in my first. Oh, man. See, this is a Pinder backpack item. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:32:50 He's literally maturing the number 12. What are you doing? What are you doing? Jeez. And it gives Hanif you to look. Like, Get out of the way. He should be long gone.
Starting point is 00:33:02 How's wrong with you? Oh, boy. As soon as your D-Man comes back and has more or less body position, you can now go. You didn't need to be here at all, and now you can go. Oh. Three, potato.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Why are we putting this on the $5 bill? Honestly, you can make a campfire in that a matter of time. No, in fairness. Look at the effort to get back. He really committed to, look at, Okay, go now, go now, go now, go now, go now, go now. Oh, boy. Now I'm going.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Oh. It looks worse every time. That made it two to one. You make it sound as though Mike Smith ruined the entire night. He did. After that goal of that caliber, just takes the wind out of the building. Poor Jerome. Screwed by Mike Smith.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Sorry, Jerome. I didn't realize. But not out of Dinger. Dinger had lots of wind that night. He was talking about Dinger. Letting us know about life. Yeah. There's a few fellas that were on a bit of shift that weekend.
Starting point is 00:33:58 That was a good run. Yeah. Even Todd Simpson. Wow. Todd. Captain Todd. Todd. Todd.
Starting point is 00:34:08 I haven't seen an announcement on a starting goal yet, Princey. Is that fair? Or do we have it now? It's Vladar again. Okay. So it'll be Dan Vladar tonight. They're on the ice right now as we do the show. It'll be Mark Andre Fleury on the other side for the Minnesota while.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Just a quick thought on Disco Dan Vladar. This will be what, six of seven of nine or six of eight? Is that what it is now? he has gone five of seven. Six of eight. That's what we'll be. Six of eight. And yes, five of six.
Starting point is 00:34:35 He deserves it. Yep. He deserves it. And I know that Jamie McClennan, former Flame, Noodles, buddy, was on TSN the other day
Starting point is 00:34:46 saying this is great. Yep. Because it allows Markstrom just kind of, if they're not, if Lidar's letting them in left, right and center, then Markstrom's got to go in
Starting point is 00:34:55 and there's more pressure and more criticism. What the hell does that old hack? No, he used to play. for the wild. And the only reason he played in the league is because they could trap it up and slow it down. Love those expansion teams. He said, this is, this is great. You can get wins without your number one while he can figure things out. That's great. It's awesome that your number one is so bad they can't put him in. It's excellent. He wasn't that bad against me. Totally.
Starting point is 00:35:21 Minnesota lines look like this real quick glance here. Crapper. No Hartman, no Brodine. And Sam Steele making what, like 900K, K over? from Anaheim, centering the top line with Caprisov and Zuccarello. That's some skill to work with some really skilled wingers. That's a nice little find for them is the ducks. Another one of their guys showing up elsewhere. We saw Josh Mahura playing top four in Florida. Like, man, what are the ducks doing? It's not good. What do they call that? Spreading out your offense? Well, bet. It allows you to have Joel Erickson Eck slide down. Yeah, it's sort of a, depending where you look, which line is the second and the third. I've seen the, the Eck, Felino, and Greenway line listed as
Starting point is 00:35:59 the second. That's probably fair given last year's scoring totals. But boldie's been great. Freddie Goddreau has moved around this lineup and Nick Batanz in because of injury. Erickson X 10 points in his last six games. Humman. Yeah. Yeah. Good player. Right now, like I said it, this is the best they have played the entire year and they're playing very well. Yeah. And power play right now has got goals in six straight. I don't think they're going to get fat and sassy either because they just blew a four goal lead against Dallas. They did hang on to win, but like I think it could be a focus group tonight. They've been off since Sunday and look bottom right. If you're hoping for a Milan lucci,
Starting point is 00:36:32 scratching, it ain't happening tonight because there's another nuclear deterrent, bottom right, Ryan Reeves. They're a physical team. They got Greenway in there, Falino on the right side. They add Reeves for a fifth round pick. You need those Zuccarello small. You don't want guys taking liberties with Caprize off. I make sense for them.
Starting point is 00:36:52 And they've always had a big guy. Like they brought in Deloree. That worked just fine for them. Six o'clock puck drop tonight. Six. Then why do you call for Lutechich to be out of the lineup? We're not calling. We're asking where the breaking point is.
Starting point is 00:37:06 I mean, the first non-Ryan Reeves opponent could work, right? What are they? Columbus? Unless you want him to fight goodie? Got to get a goodie? I don't think he's fighting good. I'd love him to run good girl.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Not that one, the other one. But yeah. Other NHL news, let's quickly jump to what we were waiting for it and waiting for it, and we saw it in the American League. We'll see it at the World Juniors. We might see it in junior again next year, but we finally saw Shane Wright score
Starting point is 00:37:29 in the National Hockey League. Against the team? To the power play, one more look at history. Just a good feed, but I like the position he gets himself into. You see him get down on one knee to create a little bit more leverage. We are. Cracking goal. They'd lose for two to the habs.
Starting point is 00:37:47 No goals in the third. Those turds need to give me one goal to hit the over. That's it. Six the total. One more. I was hoping for you. Yeah, well, nailed that Philopronic prop, so we're okay. elsewhere, let's head to Major League Baseball.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Dino, uh, big fat overpaid. Uh, da, uh, Aaron Judge, 360 million over nine years.
Starting point is 00:38:14 That's $40 million a year. Coming off an MVP season. All he has to do is keep having MVP seasons. This will not be a problem. Six, seven months ago, they offered him what, 216 or whatever it was? You have a read.
Starting point is 00:38:31 213. Has there been any, is there ever been a better example of leverage, using leverage? Bet on yourself. Than that? Pretty damn good. Yeah, I could have taken the 213. I managed to get another 146 million. 146 in about eight months.
Starting point is 00:38:52 On top, like it's unbelievable. And if you're the Yankees, you're like, How dumb are we? Yeah. We were trying to out fox, you know, you're the big, big stack at the table, and we're trying to get cute. This guy thinks he's getting $300 million. What an idiot.
Starting point is 00:39:05 And he was wrong. He gets $360 million. Like, it's, it's crazy. Truly, it's, they overpay. You had to in a way because the Giants. And the Padreys made a push. Padres came late. The Giants were all over.
Starting point is 00:39:21 The Giants were all over. The same kind of money. So if you're the Yankees, it's like, okay, we're going to lose it for nothing, or we're paying with these other people. we're going to pay. And so the two thoughts for a non-Yankees fan in the division, whether it's the Wolverine churn for the socks or many Canadians churned for the Blue Jays, leave the division or get so overpaid that it becomes cumbersome for the Yankees to deal with.
Starting point is 00:39:41 I think we got one of the two. Yeah, sure. But he's going to be good for a while still. Okay. Elsewhere, man, we're very serious about our hockey in this country. Do you notice that, Rhett? It's like, if you ever don't win the Olympics, you need a summit. And it's, oh, you know, we'd like, we'd like, we'd like,
Starting point is 00:39:57 We've got to bring in some storytellers from the 70s. Let's go to the top-rated sports intermission show in the U.S., which happens to be, what, NBA on TNT? T&T. Lots of fun, less serious. Have to see if you notice how they're less serious. Don't cheat. Oh, that was bad right there.
Starting point is 00:40:22 That was bad. Jack gets tossed into a massive tree. Biggie, get out of the tree. You basically. You need big men to pull him out of that tree. You got Chuck and, yeah, you need three guys and a forklift to get him out of there. Holy. My favorite part is he's laughing while he's in the tree.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Just got tossed in there. Just rolls with it. It's probably a $15,000 suit. If you're not watching on video, he gets bodied into this huge Christmas tree. And he goes head first right into it. Like could easily, I'm stunned he didn't come out with scratches or sap or scars. blood. It's right into it.
Starting point is 00:41:04 How does the tree not fall over? It's like 350 pounds. Oh, man. Oh, that's a good one. Now, why did, when you say, I watched Iggy in the Christmas tree, why, what does, uh, what does that mean? Because Aggie and Dono at my Christmas party fought in the Christmas tree. In.
Starting point is 00:41:21 So. Yeah. Tackled it in on and around. Body slams. Yeah. All of, all of it and above and everything else. It was. And then there was chili being tossed around.
Starting point is 00:41:34 It was very festive. I turned into the food fight. Is that right? Mm-hmm. Oh, man. Gross. You're single at the time? No.
Starting point is 00:41:47 Shoveler was. How happy was she? She lost a few family ornaments that she was less than impressed about. Airlooms. Yeah, that's what they're called. That's what they're called. I watched the NHL, the Dallas and Toronto game on U.S. coverage down here. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:08 And it's exactly what you said. It was old Barry Melrose and some other old guy, gray-haired guy, just talking serious. He's a good Western hockey kid, and I hope he does well. And it's a good game, and they're competing out there. And good luck to all. It's just not as fun. No, smile. Even just the suits in versus wearing what you want.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Like it's just, where's the fun? Right here. It's okay to smile, folks. Yeah. It's okay to lap. Yeah. Stupid potato salad over my shoulder. That's your pinned to report, Dean.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Thanks. Thanks for your help. Have a bite. Come and experience the all new redesigned 2023 Honda CRV at Village Honda, your dealership for life, the Northwest Auto Mall, and online at VillageHonda.com. Did you spill? Don't do it.
Starting point is 00:43:00 It smells some good. stuck his nose in there. Don't do it. Smells good. It's a good one to this time too. They're always good, but they're just, sometimes it's like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but if you eat that, it'll be so great because when the show's over,
Starting point is 00:43:16 you'll be stuffed and just ready for a nap. But I'm sure the Wolverine has a nice couch in there. Mm-hmm. Couple. And it's good at the best of times. Don't tell her. She doesn't need to know. At the best of times, that potato salad is so good.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Imagine when you haven't eaten for over a day. Right now. Right now. And what? Can tomorrow be fair? What's your obligation? She quit on you. She quit on you.
Starting point is 00:43:39 You don't have to tell her. I'm asserting dominance. Are you listening? What? Yeah, she don't tell her. What happens in the studio, stays in the studio. And on the internet. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:53 But after the show, right? Well, we could shut the cameras off. Yeah. Tomorrow on the program, Ask Ret, a presentation of Hope Street, rental property management. Get your questions in. Start firing them in now.
Starting point is 00:44:07 Ask Rhett at Flamesnation.com. You can go hashtag on Twitter. It'll get to us that way as well. I'm drilling like a St. Bernard right now. This is such. Look a virtual meeting online. Let Hope Street get to work for you. Canada's property manager of the year locations in Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary,

We got a night set up, courtesy shaman and some other pals. We do. And we kind of picking one a day or just monitoring what's going on. This one, the bull bustin one is,

VIP parking, the pre-event bash indoors at Grey Eagle, then you go out to the VIP seating section and some food and beverage tickets. And we'll be there. I mean, the laughs you'll have, the good times that you'll have, the bulls, you're going to be right there. you're going to meet world champion Cody Snyder

Starting point is 00:46:06 I'm sure he'll like that. Nationgear.ca is the website, and you'll see other Flames Nation. It'll be the auction. You go in that way. And that's just one of, what, we got 10 auctions on the go? We got 10 now.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Wow. I think that's where we're at. I'm looking. It's a lot. We're going to raise some money for the adopt-a-family initiative by way of closer to home, local charity.
Starting point is 00:46:28 and we're getting down to it here. About a few days left, about a week. And then right after that, whatever money is raised from the auction and the donations, which I'll talk about in a moment, all that money, there it is, is going to go directly and quickly to closer to home. They then provide gift cards to families that have enlisted with them.
Starting point is 00:46:52 And then they get to go out and get gifts and food and all the great stuff that goes hand in hand with Christmas. So we're adopting families for Christmas with the top shelf elf. And you saw there on the donation page, if you donate $10 or more, free burger, courtesy of South Street Burger, that is awesome.
Starting point is 00:47:11 And our buddy Justin, gem by Karate, for any donation over $25, you're entered into one of two draws. Well, you're in both, but you could win one men's brand new watch or a women's watch. Ta-Sot. T-sot.
Starting point is 00:47:29 That's how that goes, right? T-so. So high-end watches, and at the end of the day, it's about helping out this cause. As we get closer and closer to Christmas, and you start thinking, oh, I've got to get my shopping,
Starting point is 00:47:41 you start thinking, just go a little bit deeper, and you think there's a way, there's a way we can do a little bit more. I like it. Got about a week left. So get on that. How'd you doing your Betway last night?
Starting point is 00:47:55 You bet we bets of the day. Oh, I was happy to see that bedtime, because I'm, you know, I'm not interesting. I'm boring. I go to bed early because sleeping is more exciting than being awake now. It was four to habs through 40 minutes against Seattle. So I was like, I don't know, anyone scores one in the third. We hit the over there. I already saw the Philiparonic assist that we needed.
Starting point is 00:48:13 You got two of them. Perfect day. They didn't score in the third, the turds. So we saw it off last night. No empty netters. That's brutal. Yeah. Come on, guys.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Come on, guys. I had the Because it was where The cowards parlays When we were making our bets yesterday As we were doing it The odds changed The Jets in regulation was
Starting point is 00:48:34 Or money line It was a plus It went to minus 160 or even Like fast Yeah Went with the money line in Or sorry The regulation win for the Jets
Starting point is 00:48:43 It hit I had Carolina to win They lost I had a Jersey to win Yeah So Splitsies Splitsies
Starting point is 00:48:51 But you hit a plus Number so you're better Better than even Betway bets of the day, we will go with the flames. They're taking on the Minnesota Wild tonight, you may have heard. I'll start us off. Now, the thing with the Wild is, they've won four in a row. They've won six of seven.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Carol Caprizobs on this. Scoreed goal six. I mean, he's... Oh, ho. I don't like to do it. Dino. I don't like to do it. A curse upon your house.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Any kind of a Minnesota Wild win tonight pays plus 125. It's plus money. It is plus money. So I'm on that one. Keryl Kepresoff and Elias Lindholm, each to get one or more points. I don't mind that at all. That's a plus 100. Lindholm has goals in three straight.
Starting point is 00:49:41 We talked about Capri So our play's starting to look good for the flames. Feels like it could be. So I like both of those tonight. Those are my bets of the day for Bedway. I'm going to ride the hot hand for the Calgary Flames, who happens to be Nazim Kodry. One assist plays plus 135. Yeah. Okay, that works for me.
Starting point is 00:49:57 That line's been good. He's getting some, as we noted, power play reps looking good with PP1 all of a sudden. And Coral Kaprizov sticking with the man advantage up a single power play point. That's all. He's going to have like three or four most nights. Not that many, but he's very good. Plus money as well, plus 105. Those are the betway bets of the day.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Look at us. Just humping Caprizov's leg. Gosh, get off him already. Goodness gracious. Only three years till he's a free agent. the curl sweepstakes let them begin. Is that what it's going to be? We did that.
Starting point is 00:50:31 I wanted to mention about our buddies over at Tower. Chrysler. Food donations, non-perishable food items, drop it off at the showroom. They are then going to take it to the food bank. You'll be entered into a draw to win four tickets to the Calgary Roughneck season opener on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:50:47 That'll be fun. Today's Wednesday. You got a couple days to do that. Drop off some food. You could get a little love there from the folks at Tower. are cries. Who are they playing?
Starting point is 00:50:55 Do we know who they're playing? Sure they got on. It's the... Come for the party, stay for the game. Rochester... Winnebago? Hoop dogs. Nighthawks.
Starting point is 00:51:04 The Whistler Jacks. The Whistler Jacks. The Whistler Jacks. The Honeybears? Defending champions. First place in the overall standings for the... If you say so. Hoop dogs.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Now, you were talking about Philip Horonic, and he's been going on about it. My boy. Because I got him in fantasy, so I'm just in love right now. And you were saying that you didn't know who this guy was. He's actually very good. I saw this morning. He's the first Detroit Red Wing to get a point in all of their first 11 road games. That's D-Man.
Starting point is 00:51:42 And he has 15 points in 11 road games. That's the best for a blue liner since Paul Coffey in 86. Oh, coffee. And they got Mo Cider. and Lucas Raymond and Dylan Larkin. Look at those monsters. And that vaccine hating Tyler Bertuzi. He's hurt right now, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:03 It's a good team. We talked about it yesterday. Stevie Y. He knows what he's doing. That was a good deal for them. Yep. And they beat Tampa last night. Is that right?
Starting point is 00:52:12 Yeah. So did St. Louis stay with Bennington? No, I don't think they could have moved his deal. I think like the book was out that like when he's good, he's good, but you're putting up with a lot of headaches. So it's like, hey, well, just trade. Binnington and Kippo. It's like, okay, well, how are you going to get a Bennington trade done? Like, who's clamoring for that? Too much.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Yeah, it looked like Peruvry was pumped to have Bennington. Didn't it? Yeah. Can we get working on an extension, hey? Nah. Toronto wins. Sorry, Toronto wins last night. 9-0 and 3 in their last 12 games. Mitch Marner now points in 20 straight games. Jason Robertson's streak ends. And the number and quality of chances created, it's the highest quality shut out by some goaltending metric in like 15 years. I watched the extended highlights this morning. Matt Marie was unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:53:04 He was so good. And it's just the perfect Pierre Dorian touch. They bring him in, he's broken, they fire the goalie coach, he gets a new one, he starts to get on track, they eat the salary, send him out with picks for futures, and now he looks like Matt Murray again. So that's how you're going to spin that one. It's not on Matt Murray at all. It's a Pierre Dorian thing. Well, I, the only reason, I don't want to be a stickler here. We had Woodley on every single week for three years, and he completely hit this on the head the whole way through, and he's getting a lot of love on Twitter today
Starting point is 00:53:32 after last night's shutout. What he said was the way that Matt Murray was playing at the end in Pittsburgh was not going to work in today's NHL. There's way more lateral movement for a goalie and chances across the crease where you got to move. He wasn't good at it. He was really weak at it. The numbers get bad.
Starting point is 00:53:46 He goes to Ottawa. Ottawa should know this as a project. He's not great right now. They give him too much money. They give up assets to get them. And they think he's just going to be good. It's like, no, no, this is a project. And so you need to invest time in it.
Starting point is 00:53:59 They fire the goalie coach a year in. And then as it takes time that it needs to get better, it starts to. And they said, we're cutting bait. We'll eat his salary. Here's some picks with him. We're giving you nothing. We're taking nothing back. Take him.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Now, you've been on both. You have been anti-Matt Murray and anti-Ottawa senators. Yes. So which one are you picking now? If Murray's good now, are you off Matt Murray? I always yield to Woodley and he always said he can be good again. And I just thought, I don't know. It's been a pretty ugly fall from grace for him in Pittsburgh and into Ottawa.
Starting point is 00:54:34 But he kept saying he can do this. They just have to rebuild him. So you're in. I'm in on Murray being good. I drafted him in fantasy this year, kind of. Okay. I took the Matt Murray that was in Dallas. I didn't know there was a Matt Murray in Dallas.
Starting point is 00:54:44 This is so you. You kind of. He's good. But I'm in because somebody else said he's good. Wittley's almost always right on goalies, man. but he wasn't very good and it's been terrible. They'd rebuild him. Yeah, when they signed him in Ottawa,
Starting point is 00:55:00 what in the age are they thinking this? That's what I thought. And he was awful. The deal was bad. It was. They gave up assets and paid him way too much money. Like you knew, okay,
Starting point is 00:55:13 there's a chance it could work out. But what you gave up for him, it's like, this isn't a slam dunk. I don't know if I agree with the project. I know what you're saying, but he'd already won a cup. he had a number of years
Starting point is 00:55:24 at the NHL level under his belt. It's not like he was an unknown commodity. No, he had to play differently than he had earlier in his career. And that's not me telling you that, that's the goalie people. But that doesn't happen very often. Probably not.
Starting point is 00:55:41 Like, right? Like you've seen pitchers reinvent themselves the odd time. But usually once you've been good and you falter and fall that far from grace, it's tough to climb. back. He's also not been available a lot. He's been hurt. And that's something that fair or not, it's a part of your value. If you can't be there to be healthy, you can't help a team and you also
Starting point is 00:56:02 can't work on rebuilding yourself if that's a thing, right? Chordano is a thing. Chordano was very excited last night. Gio. Big win. Marner extending his points, streak, Austin Matthews scoring goals. Gio was right in the middle of all of it. I wish Gio wasn't there. Then I could just despise Toronto again. I thought you hated Gio, though. What's the story of that? You hate Gio, so why can't you hate the lease? I just wanted to trade him if they had a trade a Gio at any point.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Geo is such a nice guy. In return, it's probably better than what happened. All Gio does is just give back and give back. Great community guy. Everybody loves them, separate. Take off the summers and not play playoff hockey. Demoted them to the A in there too, remember that? Something like that.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Farad the goalie coach, send him to the A. Good work, guys. We have a new leader in the overall standings in the NHL. Dole? The New Jersey Devils. Feels like they've been coming for a while, but Boston lost on home ice. 43 points first overall. They now have 10 home wins and 10 road wins.
Starting point is 00:57:04 How many games in hand for Boston? You got a few, I think. Yeah, they are 11 and 1 on the road. And 10, 3 and 1 at home. Jersey's good, man. I know that was part of the seven-game skid, and you're like, how are they losing a jersey? but it's like,
Starting point is 00:57:21 Jersey's good. Jeez. Yeah, Boston's got two games and had two points back. 21, 4 and 1 plus 39. Is it that gold differential?
Starting point is 00:57:32 Vanichick had the shutout last night. They've had Schmidt in there. Blackwood's been heard. It doesn't really seem to matter. Their goal differential is so good. It's not a lot of one-goal games they're playing in. They've scored 39 more goals than their opponents. Goal and a half a game.
Starting point is 00:57:48 And not slowing down. We've been talking about it. It feels like every week we get Sarajevoire. We start this really. How many games do you need? They may not be five regulation losses all year. Good. There are four already, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:03 But I mean, this is, this is something. Jack Hughes, ripping it up. I can see the narrative already, and I kind of believe it. Like, this team can win their division and probably will, and they'll get to the playoffs, and it'll be like, look out, this isn't a regular season anymore. And they have a big decor, not necessarily physical. but it's a rather,
Starting point is 00:58:22 it's a small skilled forward group that we'll have to prove they can win in the playoffs. Hughes 13 goals, 31 points in 26 games. Tage Thompson, your boy up? Does he?
Starting point is 00:58:38 I got a guy named Randy following me right now. Really? Randy Moeller? Randy Johnson? Randy Duquette. Big unit? Beat it Randy.
Starting point is 00:58:49 Do you know Tage Thompson's on pace for 50 and 100? Why not? Unreal. If you watch him play, you're not shocked at all. Huge wingspan. Dancing. Well, the wingspan, but the skill level is right there.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Like, it's unbelievable. And he shoots it like Ovi. The stunner. If he gets that puck in one-timer, anywhere on that side of the ice, it's going in. You can't stop it. How has it taken until last year? That's the real stunner.
Starting point is 00:59:19 Because like you said, it's not like he just figured out, skating and figured out hands. He's always been super high skilled. He was the centerpiece of the O'Reilly deal with a first rounder and a couple of guys, what, Sabotka and someone else that screwed off? He was a huge piece. Bergland. Thank you. Why didn't it click? And it's the weirdest thing. Often you'll see center is too tedious for a player. They move him to a wing that frees him up and you can, they moved him to the middle last year and it's like everything changed. I've never seen that. He's very lanky.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Does it just take that long to catch up to the length of your limbs? I mean, in agreement, you'd look at Zadano Chara's career path. Took him a long time, but a huge frame that you could dream on. But his skills so high end, I don't get it. Yeah. Because you're right, right. It's not just standing in front of the net and then using his long arms to tuck pucks in. No.
Starting point is 01:00:14 He's shooting it. He's doing it all. Dason. And Rass is a dolly? Boy, those sabers. Everyone loves Dylan. Cousins. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 01:00:22 Unbelievable. These. Cousins is great. Cousins, the Yukon boy. Pick him up. So is Tate Thompson getting on the old, if there's an Olympics he'd play on the team type good? Like, if he's flirting 50, 100.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Might be early. Well, the good news is there's no Olympics on the horizon with that. But guys get old. Guys get old fast. Not worried about Tage getting old. I haven't, I just, because guys, you think, well, he'd be, Maybe he isn't. Maybe Stamcoast isn't, right?
Starting point is 01:00:54 Maybe he isn't. How are you? You're good with Vlodar getting the call again? Don't care? No way. Just go. Markstrom back in. I'm a Markstrom guy.
Starting point is 01:01:09 Big fan. Stir in the potty. So he'll play one of the... Long-term contracts over $6 million a year. You've got to play this guy. Get him out of his funk. Get him out of his own head. You're going to need him down the stretch and into the playoffs.
Starting point is 01:01:24 You want to have success. who is this Vladar guy. So he's had a nice run. Too bad. So sad. I don't even know what he's talking about. I don't know either. He's being such a smart ass.
Starting point is 01:01:36 I don't even know what he's saying. It's like a freestyle rapper. Like I hear the words, but it's not really telling a story. It's like, okay. The frog is on the bog and there's a log. Okay. What are you saying here?
Starting point is 01:01:50 Yeah. Clear one of eight goals. I say you try and get as many wins as possible right now. So that's Vladar. as your guy. Have at her. And this isn't super uncommon. Like, it would be for Saros and it would be for Vasilevsky and even Shasturkin.
Starting point is 01:02:05 But most teams would have a run where the guy you would call the backup, it's his crease for a couple weeks. Here we are. Would it also coincide with the other guy struggling? Probably, right? It would have to. I don't know. If one guy's a little off and the other guys dialed in, why not? For example, to back up this claim of yours, but I don't have anything to refute it,
Starting point is 01:02:27 so I guess I'm just going to let it sit there. Oh, that feels good. Massive Wadley. Yeah, Woodley, no. Woodley? Is he here? Is he here? Call it. Well, and I would look back to that last year he had in Vancouver with Demco,
Starting point is 01:02:40 because that's when he emerged. And Markstrom was dinged up in the bubble. They ended up handing the reins to Demko in that second round playoff series. But there was probably some considerable runs for Demco in that season. You didn't play small You're just guessing. No, no, that was a bigger split than he's ever had in Calgary in terms of games played.
Starting point is 01:03:01 He played less that year than any year in Calgary. All right. It's fourth invesant voting that year. Shitty D in front of him. How about the Kinnocks right now? What do you mean? Troy Stetcher. Everyone wanted Troy Stetcher.
Starting point is 01:03:17 Stetcher was just in town. That's my boy. One guy wanted Troy Stetcher. Well, he's a 6-7. That's where he's playing in Arizona. It's like him and Valamaki. Who's another one of your boys that scored for Florida last night? Florida.
Starting point is 01:03:31 Wasn't it Florida? I didn't see the box score. They scored two against the Jets. You were yipping about him this morning. Lomburgany? No. Dalps! Oh, is that Dalping? Yes.
Starting point is 01:03:41 Oh, he was a Penticton V, my first year in the BC League. I'm down in the hall. All I hear is, DELPS! Delps! I'm not expecting anyone else to know this. I'm just proud of the kid. He's a really hard worker. He's a great guy, and he's been in the American League forever.
Starting point is 01:03:54 So good to see him up. Josh Lavo scored last night. Yes. Wow, he's up. He was in Carolina last year. Where's he this year? St. Louis? St. Louis.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Didn't be much scoring here. He scored more even strength goals than Sean Monaghan his last year here. How many was that? Like four? Yeah. Yeah. Not a lot. Show tomorrow Thursday.
