We're in it. Barn burner on a Tuesday, boomer, Pinder, Rhett Warner. Warner's got the goggles on today. Great to have Brett today. You decided that you look better with your glasses on than off. So it's just a fashion statement today. Is that it? Well, it's multifaceted.

I mean, it does help my eyesight. There's a bit of a glare, I guess. Yeah. And those are just for... Yeah, it makes my bulbous nose look less bulbous. We have what's called. We're calling it. family.

Yeah. We're calling it the pre-show. We end up... I've got the... While we're getting all of our ducks in a row with Alex and all of the stuff for the channel, getting it set for show time. We have a little discussion. We will probably put it up somewhere, if only the audio portion.

Not today's, but yeah. But you were... One of the first remarks you made was how unhappy you are with the size of your nose. Your appearance that you thought, how in the world this guy with this nose could get anything done in life? well and the fact that I've got one of those families where the nose continues to grow as you age like it just expands don't they say the nose in your ears are the only things that just continue to I know I know my nose is growing for sure I got I got something going on here what you're measuring it's something I can just tell I got far more going on here than I used to more bridge that the bridge is expanding across got a little bit more water cartilage. Yeah.

Got some flood mitigation work going on. We're getting a bigger bridge here. I hope it doesn't turn all frigging vainy in that. Gets some of the trap in holes in there. Park marked. Right? Some of those old dudes are all pockmarked in all the veins. It's all purple.

It's like you could drain it and then drink what comes out of it. Be like straight liquor. Uncle Vic. Love you, Uncle Vic. So you got a whiskey nose? I got that in the family. Really? Yeah.

nose. It's whiskey or rum? I thought it was always a rum nose. Dean's been saying whiskey nose for a while. Yeah, I don't know. But I'm sure both make a good point. Yeah. So you wouldn't want to drink the what comes out of somebody's big nose? I showed you a picture of head cheese and you almost vomited in studio. How are you talking about draining a nose and not being revolted?

Yeah. Some nose secretion. Good start. You know what else was nice in the pregame or the pre-show? Whatever the hell we're calling it. Alex talking about his Ottawa senators. We were kind of bugging Alex because last night. Yeah, they had the big ceremony. What is it?

The hall of wall of fucking whatever in Ottawa there. Wade Redden. The I don't know who played there or cared. Yeah, that's why they needed. We were once relevant wall of honor. I remember we used to do a contest called Name that Senator. And it was hard. We'd go back over the course of time.

he was traded for this and this is a, oh God, I don't know. Donald Audet or some, oh, God, is he a senator? I don't even know. Bob Kedelski. Yeah. All the good ones leave.

All the good ones leave. All right. It's stone. Havlet. Hosa. Hosa. But you mentioned. Carlson.

Chara. That's the biggest one of all time. It's the greatest free agent signing in the history of this league. Usually they all flop and it's too much money and too much term. And instead, he became a franchise pillar for like what another 15 years or something hilarious. And then you did.

And you could argue, although they did they trade Hosa? Because then Hosa goes and he bounces around between Pittsburgh and Detroit, but then lands in Chicago, wins three cups. It's a nice number of cups to win. Good work, Ottawa. Yeah. So Flames lose last night.

Maybe get a goalie, Ottawa, Patty Lillim, sorry. Damien Rose. He was first out of the gate, right? Wasn't he the expansion? I feel like there's a Tommy Sauterstrom in there early. Ooh, boy. Islanders for sure. Was Sauterstrom an oiler as well?

I'm thinking Tommy Sallow. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Sauterstrom had a big, a big friggin bees, like he's a beekeeper with that mask it is. He wasn't in Ottawa. That's my fault. I'm thinking of someone else. He was shit.

Damn it. Yeah. So the flames lost last night. Their goal he was better than. Johnny Sauterstrom. He's terrible at hockey. He's brutal at hockey. It's been pretty darn good.

It'll ain't of hockey, to be honest. It could use some run support for sure, though. His last four games, one goal, one goal, one goal, one goal, zero goals. That's his run support. Yeah, could use some run support for sure as they lose by a score of two to one in a shootout last night. Shoot, the whatever it is, the bell center there in Montreal. Habs, Habs do it again. Back-to-back wins over the flames.

Back-to-back, Jake Allen, or is that too strong? wrong for last night. First one was Jake Allen. Last night, not so much. I would say not Jake Allen. Canadians. Buzzin. And when your third pair becomes your second pair, life gets a little trickier.

And your third line center becomes your top line center. Or Candians, as we have there. Candians. Whatever. Candidians. Is that you, Alex? You, Senator Lover. Can't spell Canadians.

Anyway. Um, I, here's the thing. Gutsy. Say what you want about the result, the road trip, Markstrom. Markstrom was great last night. But a gutsy effort, weager sick, Lindholm out to start the game. Upper body. Mackie shouldn't be fighting.

Fights. A lot of things you shouldn't be doing this. Why? Misses for five minutes. Then has to go to concussion protocol. Codry has to go to concussion protocol. Tanev takes that shot to the side of the neck, head, ear, leaves. He go.

They had to dig for everything they got last night, and they do lose, but it's easy to jump on. I give him credit for digging in 31 minutes and 30 seconds, career high night for Rasmus Anderson. It's a ton because it was middle of the second period. A little bit unfit, a little bit lazy. Not more. He's fit now.

So that's a grind, they had to dig in. They get a point. They come home. They play again tomorrow. We don't have any, because today is an off day for the flames. We don't have anything on what, on what Tan have, Tan have, or doesn't have. What did the team say?

It's all tests. All tests have shown negative. He traveled with the team to Calgary. It's not positive, guys. So I don't know what they test, yeah, what they test them for. They ask me if the gloss is half full or empty. Sore dome. It's like when you hit your head, boom, you touch.

Does it hurt here? Yeah. Here or they? There. Thoughts on the game retro? Markstrom was phenomenal. That's the different. That's,

there's your point. Special team, scoring a power play. Maybe you win. Not a good one. Like you said, they had some guys out. I thought Mackie was doing

all right in the fight until he took one in the kisser. I appreciate what he was trying to do, actually. I don't know that he's going to win those, but it is he's brave to do it. He's trying to do it. to keep his job if you think about it because you know what Dennis Gilbert would have done there.

So don't fight because you think you're going to get caoed every time? No, no. I'm saying give him credit because if he doesn't fight, they're thinking about a guy they have in the A that would be fighting. I don't know that he's better than Dennis Gilbert so much as that they wonder if he clear waivers. I don't feel bad for the kid. It happens to everyone. He was, you know, the retster. Watching the tilt here.

Boom, boom, boom. Clung. But you see, he tucked his head right into it. Yeah. leaned right into it. He doesn't know what he's doing. Keep your head back. He doesn't know what he's doing.

This guy's loving it, though. Have the arm or the chest. What do you do? Special teams, you mentioned, you could use a power play goal. You could also stand to not be short-handed 36 seconds in, not short-handed for four minutes in overtime. You essentially give yourself no chance to win a hockey game in overtime with a four minutes. That's three over-times in a row.

They've taken at least a penalty. Seven for seven hours. on the penalty kill, which is great. But again, they have been taken, they took seven last night, six against the Leafs. Seven against Columbus. Four against,

uh, in Minnesota before that. It's 24. There's your math. That's on. Well, I had to write it down. Yeah.

I think I could do that off the top of my head. So the penalty kill's been very good. Did you do this? But come on. Yeah. You can't play shortheaded for a period of a game. Sorry. No,

it's, it's been a big problem. And they're all caught. I think they're all penalties. I think they're mostly penalties. It's not chintzy stuff. I thought it was either Suzuki or Caulfield. One of them did the, oh, I feel a little something.

I'll drop to my knees and get back up. That was like, okay, like, come on. But the rest, it's like, get your stick out of guys' faces. I also, here's my beef, because I complained about Gio when he hooked the. Here's my beef brought to you by Bontan Meat Market, Bon Tonin Meets. Go ahead. Since 1921. I told you guys.

I said, we have flame guy. I forget who it was. He's going for a breakaway and Gio reaches out with a stick and slows him down. And then Murray came to sliding out in the Toronto game. Last night, Haniffin at least has body position. And they call him for interference. That's BS. It's one or the other.

Be consistent, fellas. That's the request. And I don't know that we've ever seen it. We'd love them to be consistent. It's a sport that's officiated rather poorly. and totally not consistently forever. It sucks. It's really annoying because the threshold is just changing all the time

and oh, they're really going to let them play tonight. Oh, I can't believe they're calling that. Like, it's, it must be mind numbing. Can, and am I off in thinking, like, what do your guys? Are they taking the penalties because they're slow? Their sticks are too high. I just think of how many high sticks they've had. Why are you using your, why are you, it's a typical story for,

from 10-year-old hockey all the way through. If you're moving slower, you've got to use your stick more. If there's trips and hooks, I'm with you. But what I've seen is a lot of battling for pucks and the stick pops up into a guy's face. Like you think about the Tofoli one, he's not losing a foot race. He's just battling for a puck and a quick lift to the stick and bong. I definitely don't think they're the fastest team in the NHL. I'm not saying that.

But I don't know that I correlate the high sticking calls with being slow. No, and I'm not trying to, but it does become a trend. These analytics guys should be able to figure this out. I can't, but I was just wondering. I'm not saying they are. Interference, trip, trip, trip, delay a game, roughing, high stick double minor. That was last night.

There's lots of trips in there, to your point. Let's talk, because we do, I think we do have the shot of it. The Tanev injury, it was during, because it's the minute 40 of a five on three power play, And it's a shot that, in a way, he almost, and he doesn't get all of it. Suzuki kind of, I don't know if it's fluttering because it goes straight up there. I don't know if he gets all of it, if it's going to go that high, that fast. But it clunks him.

And I mean, he's out right there. Is he not? I have no idea what he's going through, but when that guy's down that long, it is not good. I don't know that there's players in this league to play through more than what he plays through. Less than 100 already and then that. Oh, if you're out, it ain't no way. He wasn't not. I think he was just hurting.

I bet he was hurting. And if it's anybody else but Tanev, I'd be thinking, I'm going to stay down because it'll kill off the rest of this five on three. Get a whistle. But that guy's probably getting back up. That guy plays through more than 99% of the league. I'd venture to guess. All this former teammates adore him.

And when they were taking him off, he was on rubber legs. Rubberlegs street. I got to thinking as well. Never been on rubber legs. It's not good. You don't want to be there, right? Remember the shot that Damon Lankow took to the back of the neck? He missed a better part of a year.

He was out a long time. A very long time. He broke his neck. I'm going to say it again. It broke his neck. So yeah, he was out for a while. Missed, uh, that was at the end of the 2010 season. Missed the first 78 games of the 10-11 season.

So you only got back for four games the following year. Then went to Phoenix, played one final season there, that was it. But yeah, broken, got a dart in your neck. Broke his fucking neck. Fertibre? So you hope that it's nothing that serious with Tanniv. You know who else came to town and got hurt and just like disappeared for like two years? Remember Brad Warenka?

Yeah. Like that was almost two seasons. Yeah, that was a concussion. Yeah. Fireman? That was a concussion. I don't think from, from my perspective, it didn't look like it was in the neck. I think it was hit him in the head.

Yeah. Yeah, right? Like when Lanka got hit, he was laying flat on the ice and it hit the back of it. Yeah, he kind of ducked forward. He saw the shot coming and just tried to. The other thing. He got cross-checked and pushed forward. With Tanna, he braces himself as he falls.

If he's out, he's not braced himself. True that. Yeah. Not to quibble about how hurt he is. He's clearly hurt. So suck it up. Signed Ryan Pinder. A couple of professionals here.

What the hell is wrong with you? You're supposed to be tough, Dan. Let's go. Did I ever ask you what the highest minute total you played in a single game was? Now granted 31.30 for Rasmus, that's a lot on the, he played half of the short-handed overtime. All say there's over there.

Yeah, there go. Right, so. But Rasmus wasn't out till four in the morning and sleeping in his old trainer's hotel room in the same bed. Well, we don't know. We're assuming he. So you could give us the details. This would be great. What are you talking about?

The Florida Pantera. came to town. I'd just been traded. It was the next year. And, uh, my good buddy, Scotty Tinkler, who I've brought up on occasion. Now a lot of those things daily company down in Miami. If you, uh, ever need a limo, Scotty Tinkler will take care of you. Still? You think still? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, absolutely. I know. I talked to Jovo about it. 100%. Anyway, he came to town, so we went out and got absolutely blitzed. We, uh, I was so inebriated. I had to sleep over.

We were in the cabin. I'm dropping them off and I'm like, I lived a half hour away from where we were. I'm like, I'm not going anywhere. I've got to be back down here in six hours for morning skate. So I just crashed in his room. Paul Oz in the morning.

He was up in the lobby. I'm walking out. And he's like, what in the, are you doing here? Just wearing yesterday's clothes. Not much, Paul. How are you?

And the only saving grace was, I went to the morning skate and Lindy Ruff made it optional and I was back in my truck like within minutes heading home like, oh. It's like the hockey gods. Shined upon red. I took out the window on the freeway. I got more sleep that afternoon than I did night of the game. That's beautiful.

Then I played 27 because Richard Schmellick heard himself in the first shift. Dick Schmellick out early. Big Dick Schmellick. Hate to miss him. Yeah. You need him, Dean. He runs a kennel down here. Who, Scott Tinkler?

Very popular. Or Big Dick Schmellick. No, Dickie Schmellick. Yeah. You need him. He runs a kennel down here. Yes, because Dean was just planning a dog trip to Buffalo. Actually, in hindsight, you are the one that could have used.

That sounds a little warmer. Big Dick Schmellick, yeah. I should, I could have. Yeah. Yeah. He's like high end trainer. Like he trains a special. dog that's those German

Shepherds and stuff. Really smart. Specialty dogs, yeah. Like, you're dumb dogs. Anything else from last night? If Marksler plays like that, we don't need Vladar. Trade Vladar. See, there it is. The best thing to have would be three goalies

that had really good years to, you know, do what you need to do in the offseason. And I think this has been pretty good form from Markstrom in the last four. He's just not getting any runs. I think you've got to remember there's a couple posts in there. There's a two on O, they don't score nor even really get a shot off.

Like, fellas, that's the, that's two points right there. You could have done that's good. Yeah, you two could have done that. Was it Dubay or Manjapani that tries to play back to Carter? Back to Boomer. Oh, dumps it in. Yeah, we might even get a shot off. We might not try to get too cute and just another save for Allen.

It was a, it was a poor effort all the way. That back to back to back, the passing. No, give the guy, break away. and next guy come in and clean up the rebound. Come to the middle. Try to go five-hole. Next guy gets to the change. Let's go.

Now, if he's a right shot, because what is it, Dubay with him with Cadry? Yeah. If he's a right shot. It doesn't matter. The play is, listen, do I have to tell you how to do this?

I'm asking you how to do this. The guy with the puck, the guy with the puck cuts across the crease in front of the net. And a goalie, guess what he has to do? He's got to follow him, right, doesn't he? He has to honor that. So he has to slide with you. If he doesn't slide with you, you tuck it in.

If he does slide with you, put it back the other side. Ping! Top cheddar goal every time. That damn ref was getting in the way. They were going to do that, weren't they? How does that go again? What's that sound that makes?

I don't know. Do it. Pink. Ding. Yeah, something like that. Vancouver, St. Louis. Tomorrow, Friday. Yeah, I'm not here tomorrow, guys.

Are you in Pittsburgh? Fingerprints. Fingerprinting at 1 o'clock. Okay. So no show tomorrow back Thursday. No show. And we'll do Ask right Thursday.

We always do Ask right Thursday. That's perfect. You'll be back for Thursday? Day we do it. Okay. And just pay us for your share of tomorrow. I hope it doesn't take that long for fingerprints. Unless they arrest me.

If they arrest me, I can't promise anything. Now, what are they going to find with those fingerprints? Is there any cold cases? cold cases that might get reopened once they got your thumb. Yeah, you kind of... There's been a 17 huge beerstein stolen from the Buffalo German beer shack. We got them.

Ten years later, we got them. You spent a lot of your formative years in that country. That's seeing all kinds of unsavory things. Some shaky, shaky behavior down there. There were some poor choices. For sure there was. Yeah, for sure there was. Put enough.

One of the best at poor choices, we're told, though. If you've got to make poor choices, a student with rent. Putting a turkey in a hot tub. Don't even get us started. Can you imagine? Where you were putting your turkey. Hmm.

I think that's about all I got on this. I mean, I think what's important is who's available here? You don't want Lindholm out a while. I know that. You certainly don't want Uighur Tana about a while. That's two of your top four. I don't want to see Connor Mackey in the top four.

Zad Dogg, you can see it. Less is more. He was pretty good last night, wasn't he? He was crushing guys. Totally. And then it's one play, and you're like, your last man back, what are you doing? Just make the simple play.

But you're right. And then he's like, dances everyone and gets a shot, and you're like, this is the roller coaster. Well, you watch that shift that Anderson scores on. Poor Michael Stone. He's just doing the, he's trying his best. That's a lot more Michael Stone. He's just running around.

He's here. He's there. It's a cross. He's better and small. It's a hard shot. Yeah, you got a hard shot. It's got a hard shot. No, I would get Gilbert.

I would get Gilbert back if you're going to be with O-10F for any amount of time. Yes, you will be. Someone's got to be out significant amount of time for the cap to be easy. Otherwise, it'd be a little bit difficult. I don't want to see Maddie Phillips go down. I guess if... Those guys were fine again. Yeah, they were all right.

I'm happy with that. And the other... Hits a post on the power play. A other post. Yeah. That late power play. And they actually hummed it around on that one. They hummed it around and then Hanifin misses the net.

The first power play of the game was the worst I've ever seen. You know, you know what? I was going to comment on that power play. First of all, did you notice how they've changed the entry? Yeah. It's not always the dropback. And they're getting in the zone, which is better. But I don't like where the Huberto was.

Not front? He's not getting the puck enough. Or left wall there. He's the past. It should all run through Hebrew. I was thinking that. I don't need Rasmus playing it to the right. Always through Eubato.

Like if he's not open, that's great. But when he's wide open, like that is your playmaker. So who, let's set it up because I'm with you. I don't, I want to fully to shoot more when he's on the left side being a right shot. But I definitely don't want him on the left side as a right shot. Because I think, I like when he and Caudry are on the opposite sides on that power play, who do you want is your net front guy i mean coddra's kind of the net front guy isn't he front guy who the hell cares about the net front guy the net front guy stands there and screens

the goalie i don't know what difference does it make you not always because if you go from the hash marks below the goal you get the guy in the slot he's got to have the ability to one time that thing if you can connect that pass if you play in the nchl you should be fine right like who on the flames top nine can't be a net front guy. Well, I mean, commit to it.

Start scoring. Tip puck, screen goalies. Yeah. I'm not worried about net front guy. The only thing put, give Huber the puck on a half wall. Yeah,

I don't see. He's such a pass first guy and you've got some other trigger men. It starts there. And Raspus can shoot it. He says, he can shoot it. Just let Euberto start with the thing. Yes.

Give you. And he's got a good enough. where the goal, he can't just ignore it like they did with Godrope. I'd like him be used a little more, to be honest. It feels like it's, if you're past first, great. But shoot every once in a while just to like, you know, the element of surprise. Yeah. Everything's past first.

My big complaint is the fact that you have a chance to win the game and you don't get hit. He didn't have the puck on his stick hardly at all that power play. And he was going. He was going. Been better. Hubey. It's probably what around. 10 points last 10 something like that.

And you're like, okay. First goal in seven for Hubert O, but the points have been there. And again, like he's a 20 goal guy that might get you 70 helpers. That's kind of, it's not like the goals or everything. He's setting up a lot of action. So again, so again, if you're on the power play, probably. Give it to your passing guy. Run the thing through that guy.

Because right, every time there's an assist. There's a goal. Hmm. Every time. So let's backtrack. How do we, so we're okay. with the effort. Obviously, March was great last night.

We're okay with last night. You get another bounce, you win that game. Toronto, blown leads, power play. They get three power play goals. I like the effort there as well. It's really good team. Yeah. Toronto hasn't lost since like November 11 or something like that.

They lose three one against the blue jackets. That's the one that got away. And if you, if you'd won that one, you come away with four points. Your math's a little off, but yeah, you'd have four points out of six. but that's the one that kills you. That's the last place team in the East. You played like crap. They got shellacked the game before like 9 to 1, wasn't it?

Buffalo was in California. Just snot bubbled them. Who killed them? Was it? Florida? I'm sure I remember. Buffalo. Buffalo, thank you.

That was the Tage Knight. Yeah, okay, okay, okay. Prior to that, they beat the Wild 5-3. Before that, they beat Arizona 3 to 2. It was a 4-1 homestand. It was a really good homestand. The one they didn't win, they got Jake Allen. and they outplayed the hubs.

So I didn't have a problem with the homestand, but that Columbus game just sinks your battleship on the road trip because Toronto's good and you end up playing minus a lot of significant parts in Montreal. It's like losing to Ottawa during the lockout or the COVID year. Oh, they're the two-point guarantee. There's nothing guaranteed that year. That's rough. I think the big takeaway will be who's healthy.

Who's available for tomorrow and Friday? You don't want to play without your number one center and two of your top four defensemen. A lot of hockey, right, eh? Four games and six with travel all over the place. How many did they play when you were in the league? Two that they get through. And then they had that,

didn't they have a big break at one point? A lot of games. Gosh, a lot of games. I think it's early Feb. Well, they got to have, 10 days. We got to get some Christmas time off at Christmas and the All-Star break and the Olympic break.

And the Olympic, we've got to get time off and the mandatory week off and all that. BS. Yeah, jam all the other games in there. friggin' 8 o'clock start tomorrow, by the way, if you're keeping track. Is it? I don't wonder I'm not. Yeah.

Home game, Vancouver in town. We have got a chance for you to win tickets. I hope you're on Twitter. And if you're not on Twitter and you message me somewhere else, what if we don't have Twitter? The answer is get Twitter. Because this is a Twitter contest. You have to be following Madrose Pub.

All right? Mad Rose R.O. Stans for Royal Oak. Madrose R.O. On Twitter. Tag two friends. Put them in there. And we'll go about doing the old, the Twitter search.

We'll grab a pair of tickets and we'll grab one of you and send you off to see the Canox. Granted, it's an 8 o'clock start, but you may still want to go, even though it's an 8 o'clock start. I think you did it wrong. What? I'm looking at Madros R.O. on Twitter. That's a human. That ain't a pub. Okay.

That's just doing what I was told. Well, I think it was Instagram is the one that's R.O. But it's all right. We'll figure it out. It's hard to get good info. you guys get your ass together. Yeah, I know, right? Come on.

No, it's good. Madrose Pub R.O. There we are. Madrose Pub R.O. Whatever the fuck it is. Tag them. Tag friends. Tag them.

Eat pizza and beer. Win tickets. Mad Rose Pub R.O. There we go. Christ almighty. Someone named Leanne was the other. That's not it. Don't follow Leanne.

Really? I don't know. Guartheed Leanne has a rose tattoo. She gets a little bit crazy. They got her. Mad Rose. Guaranteed. So we've been talking about,

I went and did some looking online because I don't know if I did a good job of explaining the outdoor dental. Like they've got this laser. They got the laser. This laser does everything. Yeah, it cuts through fillings and it's,

you don't need to go through. Use it on your eyes. I was saying, you don't need to do the old archaic way with the trays and the goop and the stuff. I don't know if you guys knew what I was talking. Have you ever done that? I've done the trays in the goop.

I don't like it. But for, yeah, have you gotten crowns and that? This is what I'm talking about. Get that shit out of here. So that thing is made of metal. Look at the gybs on that. Look at them. They're firing that thing into your yapper.

Get out of there. Look how happy he looks. Hey, look how happy that guy is with all that sputes going into his yip. And I can leave at an hour. That's what you avoid by going. to outdoor dental. Frigg off. Look at big metal bedpan going into your trap.

That's why you go to outdoor dental because that's, you don't do that anymore. Is that remind you a drinking blue curse are at? Yes, it makes me want to vomit. Doesn't that look like medieval stuff? That looks like some medieval torture stuff. I had that in 2022. because I did not go to outdoor dental.

In addition to the dental work and the laser, they've got the treatments for your snoring. And that's kind of when we were talking to Dr. Jay, Dr. J. Patel. It's the, it's the snoring. The snoring with the laser. Look on the right. The poor shoveler just trying to get some sleep.

And the Rettsters just saw and logs of the heavy-duty Huscavarner. Just no fair. Yeah. And I think there was the other, the other grab there talking about how you go in, two treatments, 15 minutes, and look,

there it is. That's the, that's the laser. That thing saves you from the goop? Yeah. Love it. And the snoring and all of that. Outdoor.

Dot dental. Can we fix the rat's nose with that thing or no? Have you talked to Treff? Non-surgical pain free. Go to their website, Outdoor. Dot dental. Or you can email

reception at Outdoor. Dental Get yourself booked in. Go. Get yourself booked in and yeah. You don't have to go to that dudgeon with the metal tools

or you've been gone. Good times. Do you snore, Rhett? Do you use a machine? Damn right. Yeah. I'm excellent. I had the machine.

Stopped using the machine. I should use the machine. Or no. I should go to outdoor dental Yeah, you should go see that. Not worry about using. Once you're allowed back in the country. Tomorrow, 10 p.m.

we're going to wrap up the top shelf elf Christmas campaign. That's coming up quick. Yep. We did it for, what, I guess, 10 days, a couple weeks. Either way. Tomorrow night, 10 o'clock, we will stop the auctions and stop the donations and take all of that money and hand it over to closer to home. They in turn will spin it into the adoptive family initiative,

which is going to, just quite simply, provide Christmas for families that otherwise would not have Christmas. And on our auction site, things are, I don't know how this is going to go, because I'm putting myself, I would think if it were me, I would probably just kind of slow play it. I wouldn't necessarily go and bang, bang, bang, be hitting this thing. Pretty late for a slow play. These seem to be climbing in the last 24 hours. I wonder if the final day, the final 12 hours is going to be, is going to be wild. There are 10 experiences in all.

Our buddies with the windmill group and launch pad are in, Mercado and Hope Street, combining for a New Year's Eve experience. The St. Eugene, beautiful resort out by Cranbrook. Eugen. My name is Eugene. ATB Financial in with the top shelf experience and the team builder experience. The Cody Snyder Bull Bustin is in. Cavalry FC has a special one there as well.

And I know you're not really thinking about your summertime, get together. others right now. But it was probably, boy, I'm going to say 10 years because you throw COVID in there. People in our neighborhood, they did a pig roast in the little cul-de-sac. It's like, really, Zach? It was one of the best weekends of the entire summer. They had all the, they brought out tables. We had tunes, chairs, drinks, all this sort of thing.

And I don't think I would be able to, I like cooking. I don't know that I'm doing a whole pig. I'm not sure how that goes. You need a lot of gear too. How do I do it? I don't know. The Bonton experience is up for grabs there. 6.50.

Think about, you get a few families together? Plan a weekend. What's 600? 50 pound barbecue hog and the free use of the pig roaster. 50 pounds of hog. That is, book it for your long weekend. Figure out a weekend now. Get some families together.

Get that bad boy. All the money goes to closer to home. You're welcome. The Rettster had the best idea. You get that in, the stamps package. you tailgate with the pig roast The stamps package Four tickets to the home

opener, four retro jerseys A parking pass so you can do some tailgating I don't know if you need to do the pig at the tailgate I'd probably say don't do the pig of the tailgate It's because you're a coward I'd do it at the tailgate I wasn't right? Why not do a pig at the tailgate

Four pregame What's your problem with it? Sideline passes 100 bucks in food and beverages That one's at 620. Come on. Let's get her going here. Come on. 10 p.m. tomorrow.

And the donations. These are starting to creep in. And I know we've been talking a lot about these experience because we're so thankful to everybody who chipped in and donated. Also big thanks to South Street Burger and Gem Bikerti. The donations will go till 10 o'clock tomorrow. Anything 10 bucks or more?

A free burger from South Street Burger at any one of their Calgary locations. Over 25 bucks. We entered into the draws. We have two of them. One for a men's watch, one for a women's watch. Tiso watches by Gem Bicarity. That's nice watches.

Two winners there. And there'll be some other, some other prizes that we'll be giving away. Bontan Meets came in with some stuff. Just randomly, we're going to take some people who donated. So get those in, because those are actually as or more important

than the auction stuff. If you can, we'd sure appreciate it. If you could. Appreciate that. Time for the Pinder report. Now you were saying, kind of how the Pinder report, it's from when we started, what, it's two and a half months ago.

So if you listen to the old show at the old place, it was just a lot of audio that we can't really use here. And it was music, which we can't use on the YouTube's because there's copyright stuff. So we had to sort of reinvent what the hell the Pinder Report was. And I feel like we're starting to find our feet. And we knew it was going to take time because I don't want to work that hard, but it'll figure itself out. Right. Because you were saying it started kind of as a, And here's what the arbitration filings were in the NL board. Yeah, no, I don't need that. Because it was news, sports stories and news,

and maybe a little kind of a silly thing at the end. And then it was news and then the silly stuff. And now it's basically a couple stories and then just some dumb shit. Yeah, yeah. We want to do something that looks like it's something to do with sports. And then after that, let's talk about some missing digits. The Pinder report brought to you by Village Honda, proudly serving Calgary, an area for over 30 years.

one-stop automotive destination in Calgary. There you see it, the $2 million buying event has been extended to the end of the month. $2 million to buy your used cars. Princey's trying to steal some of the way is. I know he is. Crazy bastard. Hey, does that, Anthony, do you think he's got two million for me? I would sell my truck for two million.

Two point five. Get there before a prince he does. Northwest Automall or online at village honda.com for village honda. All right. The spend report. We start, Maureon. Or Montreale. all if you're some American brand guys.

How do you say it, Rhett? What do you say it? La Pellville. Montreal. Montreal. Very good. Love it. It's Christmas season.

Our friends are iconic who do the great work on the social media posts. Look what they made here. Zoom in, Alex. This is genius. Brett, did you see this? That's you?

Bringing all the top shelf goodies. That's really something. That's Dean pointing out that that that mug of eggnog. is actually half empty, and then that's me saying how much, how many shots of rum were in the egg knock? The guy that does this for iconic. I don't know. He's missed his calling.

Unbelievable work. You should be, uh, for those. Yeah. If you're not on the YouTube's, he's taken kind of the movie poster for the old classic Santa Claus the movie. And he's put red in the Santa suit, Pinder's an elf. And it's perfect because your mouth is a, you're in, yeah, you're a, yeah, you're a typical. you're very much Pinderesque. And then I've got, I'm on the other side.

Stokey going there. Yeah, it looks like a stogie. All right. But the, the work is, is amazing. I was surprised that for once, I wasn't the fat guy.

That's a departure. Usually if there's a fat guy, it's going to be boom in the suit. And you know what? Brett, Santa's jovial. It's not fat. Your nose is looking big there, though.

Yeah. You know, Skid. It is. Get that laser on it. Cricket. So that's the scene set for Montreal, my friends, where, oh, zero, zero, you know how you fire up the boys? A little tilt at Center Ice.

Connor Mackey, keep a job in the league. But maybe next time do a little scouting because this guy can toss him, Pisetta. He's just kind of hanging on. He's awesome. Oh, dear. Oh, dear, oh, dear. Zebras are in there. Don't put stick your chin out there.

Trying to catch one? You'll bite his hand off? Yeah. We're on that in a moment. Do you like the celebrating to the crest? out, Rhett, when you, uh, trying to whip them up? No, but I know what it's like when you nail a guy. You're fired up, yeah.

And it's the Bell Center and it's zero, zero. You're trying to get things going here. If you're Pizzetta, and to be fair, don't know how many other ways you can really affect things on the ice. So good on them, doing what he can. Markstrom was very good last night. Here are some saves. I think even just from overtime, we've collected them.

Like, dude, dude was, uh, sensational. He made six saves on the man advantage in overtime. Oh, I was going to say it would sound like a slight. on the flames, but it was a four-minute power play in overtime for the habs. Your goal scores in regulation, Eubertoe for the flames, and that it was future flame, Josh Anderson that tied it up, as you like to say, Dean. And yeah, save, save, saves from Markstrom. He's been great.

You know what hasn't been great is run support. Last four games combined, they've scored three goals for him. Three times a single goal, once didn't score. Tough to win if you're a goalie if you need zero to get a W. And he's lost four straight. Been good, though. It's good news. We love big save Dan.

Jacob? But you're going to need Jacob. He's still your guy. Big save, Jake. Whatever. Fladar. We like Fla Dar. I like two goalies going.

Those are good problems, Dino. Better than the opposite. So flames do fall. They're coming home. It's Vancouver tomorrow. First time all year they've played their division arrival. and then St. Louis for their only visit to Calgary before they play two in St. Louis

over a few nights in the Feb. Back to the games in St. Louis. It's like the San Jose thing. It's weird. This is a new schedule thing. It's like the spreadsheet had an error. PC load letter. The hell is that mean?

They did that a few years ago, 20 years ago. I don't like it if I'm a season ticket holder, but less travel. Cut down on the travel. Games are flat. Fair. Hey, you want some organizational? Hey, you've seen the Zahorna.

You've heard about the wolf. You know that, you know, Peltier at some point going to be an HR. You've seen the Phillips. Have you seen the Forsberg from Emilio Pedersen? Check out this breakaway. Why, there was some breakaways in this club? Nice line change, San Diego. Yeah, this was the Sunday afternoon game, right?

Oh, yes, sir. we missed yesterday. I thought we showed to you today. The poor gulls are just awful. Well, remember Emilio Pedersen was one of those kids. He was a YouTube sensation when he was a little kid. A lot of skills. Is he Norwegian? I feel like they had a Norwegian kid. That might be him. Ufta. Anyway, that's pretty. And if you look, and the beginning of it is the best. The line change is just absolutely atrocious. Yeah, because you see the highlights. They're peeling off as he goes out.

So this is in, there's people going. This is in the shootout? No, no. No, no. No. No, that's just, yeah. So there you go. It's only matter of time. There's a coach there for San Diego, because they must be losing their marbles. Like, that guy just... That's the worst change I've seen all year in any level of hockey. It's pretty good. Okay, NHL.

That's Swedish or that's Norwegian. And Lepsa. I had someone text me about some Lepsa that was being fresh made in Calgary. I wanted to know if I was home. Is that like Lutifisk? No, you don't want the ludicc. It's gross. You're going to work your way up to that.

Hideous. Have you had that? No, Christ. I never heard of it until you brought it up, and then you brought up pictures and I was barfing. Some news from NHL Board of Governors' meetings. Apparently, uh, over a dozen groups.

Very interested in the senators. How about this? And, uh, yeah, you can go look at their books. Go see what, uh, give him to Ryan Reynolds. Give him to Ryan Reynolds. Well, I think there's a, strong interest that whoever they want to own the team bring on Ryan Reynolds in a minority role. Certainly couldn't hurt.

They're going to go from Canada and like the most me, unemotional. I have no feelings about the auto senators to like a brand new downtown rink. Ryan Reynolds. They're going to spin off some series. It's going to be a team people care about outside of Greater Ottawa, which is going to be something you've never been able to say about the senators. Sorry, Alex. How would you feel about that if you were a billionaire trying to buy a hockey team and the league is

like, oh, by the way, we'd really like you to have Ryan Reynolds involved. Well, I think the thing that the league wants him for would be the same thing you would want him for as a majority guy, which is it's going to be good for the bottom line, so do this. Okay, I'll make more money. I'm in. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know how I feel about Ryan Reynolds. I get he's a movie star.

I don't know that it's, you know, seems to be a fun guy. What the hell are you talking about you don't feel anything about Ryan Reynolds? Watch Deadpool. He's awesome. There you go. He's a Jim Carrey wannabe. What about the welcome to Rexum or whatever? Watch Ryan Reynolds.

Jim Carrey makes face. Watch Ryan Reynolds. What are you talking about? It's all Jim Carrey. It's okay. It's not right. It's not Jim Carrey at all. You start watching.

You'll never see it. You'll never not see it. You'll never not see it. Listen, Jim Carrey went off the deep end because he did that show, man on the moon. Yeah, Stanley Coffman. Cuckoo. Not Stanley Conn. Damn it.

Who was it? No. Stanley Coopheck? Stanley Kubrick? No. Damn it. It's not Stanley Co. I know the,

I just like watching you. Mixed two things. It's okay. Go ahead. We'll move along. It's not important. Gary Beckman. While you're thinking about it,

the shovelers, that's Ryan Reynolds is one of her, get free cards. Oh, it's free pass. Free pass. Hall pass. How's that work? Does she submit it?

Does she let you know? Or is it just, she starts traveling. He's all gray and... Oh, he's going... Whatever. Salt and pepper. What's he got that you got?

You got to do it. And he knows how to do it. What are you... Hey? Not a big bulb of snows, but... Well, he's wishing he could get one. I guess.

Gary Bettman's talked about the cap growing next year as much as four or more million dollars or just one million dollar. Which does seem odd, because there is middle ground there that he seems to be ignoring and isn't an option. It looks as if If there has to be one or the other and no middle ground,

it'll probably be the $1 million with the way revenues are projected. That's not good for the flames. Have a look. If it goes up by $1 million, the flames will need to fill five roster spots with less than $2 million, which of course would be two league minimum contracts and three invisible people not making money that can't play on your team. Well, maybe the, gosh, maybe the flames aren't going to be able to play next year.

I feel like it won't go up by $1 million either. There's going to be a lot of pressure and a deal to make with the PA. and it'll be somewhere between one and four. But either way, that's your cap growth news for the day, which I know. Cap tax? Can you go over and pay the tax? That would be luxury tax,

which is not a hard cap, which Gary has locked everyone into. Blue Jays have signed a pitcher. Chris Bassett's coming in. Let's have a read of this tweet, which will tell us a lot about what we need to know about Chris Bassett. He's settled on a three-year deal after shaking off a one-year deal,

then a four-year deal, and then a two-year deal. He takes a long. time to work and he always shakes off pitches. Always not what it is. I get it. They're a good middle of rotation guy. I don't they have a new rule? Isn't there new rules in?

You can't do that? Pitch clock, yeah. Take it forever. Career ERA of 3, 4, 5, solid. We'll see how she goes. Decent looking rotation. If Kikuchi can not be a complete abomination. What else can we tell you? Hey, you know what's fun?

When animals invade a building, like rats, old Florida rink. Aren't rats the most adorable thing? Remember, then they're going to make the plastic rats. We love rats. Yay, rats. I wish we had rats in our house, mom. Dad, can we get rats? Okay, well, that's not true. But if you said the same thing about foxes at a baseball stadium, it would be true. Because look at this. The Colorado out of Rockies have been invaded by some cute foxes or foxes, whatever we say. You know who else likes foxes? Foxes or is a fox? Kate Beckinsale.

All right. Let's take a look at some of these photos. Let's stop talking about Fox. Let's just look at Foxxel. Beautiful. Look, stretching, hey? Oh, love it. Yeah.

My back is killing me. Yeah. Oh. So are you going to have to get them out of there at some point? Anytime soon. Yeah, sometimes you've got to shoot the Fox. Fox and the Hound, right? That tail would make a nice hat.

Let's move along. NFL, it was a Monday night between the Patriots and the Arizona Cardinals. Kyler Murray hurt. The Mannings had no words. And you always grimace when you see someone go down on the non-contact. Here's Kyler.

And then it's roll over. And the opponent, immediately calls to the sideline. And so the Arizona Cardinals are now done the rookie contract of Kyla Murray, accomplishing almost nothing before they're into the huge money next year. And of course, should have played ball. No, Paul, he'd be making a half million bucks a year still.

Blow your knee out and you'll never make a million bucks in your life. This is different. And of course, you know, the internet being such a warm and fuzzy place as we know what to be. Yeah, probably. It didn't take long before the memes were. We're out talking about what Kyler might be up to during rehab. There he is off to play war zone. Come on.

Jeez. Since week eight of last season, Arizona at home, one and 12. The Arizona Cardinals. Do you remember how exciting they were at one point when he arrived? And then the playoffs last year, it's like, is this guy lost?

What happened? Kyler, they bring in Hopkins. J.J. Watt was an exciting thing for a moment. one and 12 just yuck yeah yeah you're staff season tickets but I'm not doing that anymore

not fucking Kyle I'm a lot of a lot of video game guys nice stadium right we got him

we got them we got them that crypto billionaire jerk money laundering I saw you took someone down

we got them man we're great was it Sam something something something banks something Bankman Friedman that's yes Elliot Friedman Banks that's who was we got him yes took him down have a little look there

statement from the Attorney General of the Bahamas Senator Ryan Pinder on the arrest of Sam Bankman Bank fried chicken fried fried Elliot Friedman 32 thoughts Do people have any idea what you're talking about Well there's a song that can remind them

if they need to remember I have a namesake in the Bahamas, who was a politician and moved into the private sector, is now Attorney General, and his election song we used five days a week on the old show. Alex, do you have the Ryan Pinder song? We'd love a listen. Because this is the man that took down Friedman, Span, Banking, Banking, Frank and Friday, Freed, Sammy, that's what I mean. Center. Attorney General.

He should have hit the Bahamas instead of here, I guess. I feel like when there's billions missing, they're going to find you. You got to fake your death or something. It's not the move. Well, I don't have to worry about that. It's a good problem to have. What about hundreds? What about hundreds?

Do they come out? He's a thousand dare. Where's he hiding? All right, we don't have the song. That's fine. We'll move along. That's right. That's our boy.

Ain't no turn them back. Elizabeth in the back. I'm kind of switching. F and them be snunking. F and them be dissing. So P. O'P. Bro.

We go win this election. F and them be joking. F&M ain't checking. All right. There we are. That's our boy. Let's see what they're singing about. Took them down.

Well done. And you're welcome, everyone. Good work. All the thank you's on Twitter. Well, let's circle back to the brawl. in Arizona. Remember the Mullet Arena Tilt retro? I was like,

oh, geez, that chick's a girl, man. Whoa, that chick's a chick, bro. More details emerging courtesy

the front man for that crooked owner in Arizona. It wasn't just the tilt, but there's some things missing after the fight, including a finger. Wait, what? Yes. So this was the tilt.

And at Board of Governor meetings, I believe it was Gutierrez, who runs the business for the coyote's owners that noted, yeah, that was a bit of a melee. And I don't know if he's hyping this up like Vince McMahon, that, you know, Sunday, Sunday, Royal Rumble. But he said someone's finger got bit off there. Yeah, there it is.

Coyote's CEO, Xavier Gutierrez, says someone had a part of their finger bitten off during that San Pratt. Mallet Arena. Yeah! I want to go even more! Well, now here's the thing. I was going to say you probably feel like poor guy the gut is, or whatever, poor person that got their finger.

I would think so. They're probably trying to fish hook them. You can't be fish hook. You were probably trying to fucking fish hook them. No fish hooking allowed. No, I gouging, no fish hooks. It's simple. Come on.

Guaranteed fish hooking for sure in there. Not going to say you deserve it, but. I had a guy try to bite my finger midget triple A. Were you fish hooking? You deserved it. Fish hooking son of a gun? I was just holding him down. I had my, like, I had my hand on his face because he was on the ice.

He fell down. There was a brawl. And so I had my hand on his face and he started wiggling his face. And then my finger fell into his, and then I got mad. Yeah. Fell into his. Pasternak takes one. I elbow dropped him.

Fish hook. I elbow dropped him. Redd, you're okay if we show a little visual of the shoveler. That's all right. Yeah. So she's not afraid to flaunt it. The young fellers. This is, I believe, Buffalo Junior Sabres.

And not unlike when you were trying to let Trev know that there's two men on the ice, she had a few words of wisdom for some of the play on the ice. It must have been either your middle kid. I'm not sure. So keep an eye on the ref on the right here as the shoveler comes to straighten out. North town center. Yeah, there. See?

Yeah, I'm just, uh. Yeah, excuse me. My husband's bite of the NFL. That's too many men. He said too many, Tram. Oh, my God. No, no, no. She was trying to get my kid the assist.

Oh, there. Yeah, yeah. She's chisling. There's an assist. Yes. Oh, this she characters would be proud. Number four had the assist. Jeez.

Oh. Did you do any research on this? I'm proud of her. You let that zebra know what's up. No, you're right. She's probably very justified in that behavior. That's true. A very good reason.

She told the guy. The clock's not running. Who cares? The clock isn't running. You're right. He's running. It's not. Why are we outraged?

That's all she was doing. Wonderful. I even pointed. He wasn't upset. As long as she doesn't, I gouge your fish ruck, that's totally illegal. That's fine.

Right, Dean? If she's looks, she gets close. In the ear, absolutely. But not a big deal. She's hammered. Not taking shots at her.

Even hammered she's doing a jump there. She doesn't have a drink at her hand. There was a girl in, where were the other day? Oh, man. that Wilkesbury. Utica. Right ripped.

Full of white claws. Just smashed. Screaming. Awesome. Old man and Wilkesbury Scranton the other day. You know like I got, when the crowd got behind me?

Trevor. Get a little confidence. This guy, same thing. The wraps were terrible. So he let loose. And once he crested and broke through the barrier of being vocal.

Now they're with us. Yeah, yeah. He let her go. Oh, it was awesome. Yeah, you tell them. I don't know why we get so upset. Who cares? He's yelling at the rest. Oh, they're going to scare off the rest.

Well, the refs are two per day. And this is a good thing to talk about because it's the holiday time of year. There's lots of parties that, you know, what are the etiquettes around drinking this time of year? As we are going to be out festive and social. Or the merrier. So two drinks per day, unless you've already had three in which case, fuck it. So that's an oldie but a goodie from the Beaverton for 2018. So for your Christmas parties, Red, just remember that little.

ship that lost count I'm at three go for it yeah there you are well I already had three cancel my cancel my Wednesday nurse yeah that's pretty good there you can I tell you guys something all right yeah there's something

after Christmas my oldest has a tournament in Toronto and I can't go so the whole squad is leaving town I'm on my own like from the 27th to the 30th three days. Joya Noel.

I hadn't seen that one. The Health Canada really kind of landed on the line there. It's good to know. You should probably consider this. Good to know. But I want to tell you about Jasper. Want to tell you about Jasper? Jasper.

It's a good dame for a dog, isn't it? I had a buddy named his dog Jasper. Big St. Bernard people. Yeah, me too. I called him Jaspy. Jaspy. Hey, Jaspi. Good dog.

God love you. Jaspi. That's terrible. God was he nice. Jasper. dot travel slash winter dash cabins you can celebrate in the mountains it's the cabin capital of Canada yes for sure it is triple C relax beside a roaring fire treat yourself to a spa day comfort food galore you make some smorse oh yeah be having some smorse for sure out there cabin properties some of them are open year round available

for rent, Jasper. Dot Travel slash winter dash cabins for more information. Tell us about the mountains near Buffalo. They look like that. No. Ellicottville is certainly not Jasper and is certainly not the Rocky Mountains. So when you're back, if you're flipping a coin,

don't bother flipping, just go to Jasper. You should hear how many people in this part of the world. They tell, oh, you're back from how I would really want to get out to the Rocky Mountains. Boy, those mountains have been calling me. for a few decades now. And when Herb and I get this sorted out with the lawyer, we're off. It's beautiful, you idiot, you arrogant American prick. Go.

Jasper dot travel. And good day to the district attorney who will be fingerprinting you tomorrow if you're listening. Let's, uh, go I do some betwe bets? Oh, yeah. Flames off till tomorrow, but what are there? 12 games tonight in the national hockey league. Two dozen. That's right.

Wow. That's a lot. I can start us off. Do you want? Fire away. We're going to start in Winnipeg where the Jets are hosting the Vegas Golden Knights. What a game. Vegas is loving the Jets.

Look at this, Vegas, 12, 2 and 1 on the road, plus 120, money line. Plus money on Vegas? This is Boomer covering his ass because he's a huge jet span. And if the Knights win, he's still happy. So that's all he's doing. This is the happiness edge. You're right. for value.

Looking for value. So the Leafs are playing a AAA midget team. Oh, they're minus 70,000. Yeah, okay, you can bet that. Plus money on the Golden Knights, 12, 2 and 1 on the road. The Arizona Coyotes are at the San Jose sharks. Both teams not very good. Yeah, that's true.

Coyotes money line plus 145. They're coming off wins over Philadelphia and the Boston Bruins are the coyotes. The Bruins? The sharks beat Anaheim six to one, but prior to that, that loss of Vancouver, Buffalo, and Ottawa. Gross. Coyotes, money line, plus 145. Those are my betway bets of the day.

I like them. I also hope that you know that Jack Eichl's out and Alex Petrangelo's out, but good luck to you. I like the knights on the road. I'm not saying I'm betting my house. I'm saying there's value. It's a happiness hedge and there's value. It's a double whammy.

I like plus. I like pluses. You want pluses? Get a load of these. I got some pluses for you. How about the awful, awful, awful, Ducks of Anaheim.

They have one regulation win this year. It's almost fucking Christmas. They have one regulation wing. That's staggering. One. That's staggering. One. You know who's going to go off?

The Leafs. Nealander and Matthews both to score. Nealander's on the absolute heater. He did this five-point game on the weekend. Score in a ton, not just passing. Matthews won best pure score in the game today, probably. Plus 250.

Yeah. And then Mitch Marner, just won measy little point. and the power plate. Made two, sure, but just one. That's all we need. Plus 105. Bet we bet's the day.

And he's still streaking, right? Oh, still streaking. Still streaking. Crosby and Kane, the only two active players with longer point streaks than what Marner's got active right now. Leaves are having a hell of a season.

After that rough start, the one on the road, that the California swing, weren't that kid? 18, 5, and 6. And wasn't everyone going to get fired? It was a classic, we're 10 games in.

Let's overreact. But also the lost Murray and then Samson, I've got hurt. And it was Shalgren coming. You're thinking, oh, boy, this is not what they had drawn up on the whiteboard in the offseason. Can you say the flames had someone that was around today? Someone that was around today.

But me, boom and I were like, who? Oh, no, I was, uh, Eric Gustafson. I was getting these alerts coming in as game day skates happen. So I was like, oh, Mauna hands out two to three weeks. This player's not at morning skate. Eric Gustafson is back for the capitals. And I was just like, oh, yeah, Eric Gustafson. He had like a two, two month.

little window with the flames. 2019, I think. Yeah, that was on the pre-show. Yeah, COVID. Got to sell the pre-show. That was on the pre-show. It was COVID in 2020. Pre-show gets out.

We're done. I'm going to say something that pisses someone on. Want to mention this before we go. Thursday is the second and final opportunity for one of the South Street Burger free skates. Oh, right on. Family Skates YY.com is their website. New York fries, South Street Burger.

Brian DeHon, our buddy's got. both of those kind of rolling for you. Thursday, Max Bell, 530 until 6.30. Max Bell, yeah. It's all free. Go for a free twirl with your kids. Is this the penultimate skate you're saying? This is the ultimate.

Oh, the ultimate. In a way, it's the penultimate, but I'll tell you why in a moment. So that's Thursday, 530 to 630 at Max Bell. Prizes, they're giving, raising money and doing stuff for kids sport. You know, burgers, all that's a great time. It's a great time. And then, I guess, the ultimate would be December 20. I don't know how the big man's doing it.

Santa? I don't know how he's doing it. The 23rd, if we can go back to that graphic, the skate out in, out in Airdrie. Get out of here, Santa. Yeah, out at the Genesis Place there. Whoa. Public skate.

Santa's going to be there for almost three hours. Free skate with Santa. Hot chocolate. That's French. Look at the big man there. Yeah, I'm like a chocoholic, but it's with booze. Yeah. Skate with Santa. So good job for Sell Street Burger and New York fries. Very festive. Are you in... It's a big get.

Are you in the festive season, retro? I know sometimes it's hard, life's busy, or are you right into it? I haven't been as festive as I'd like. I am going to Courage of Carly Christmas Festival today at Roswell Park, which is a cancer institute. And Courage of Carly is a... charity that I started with a good friend when I played here. So I'm doing that. But no, I haven't been really, I haven't had as much festive drinks as I would have thought. But I'm going to change that.

I've got to get back in the swing of things here. Well, and you told us yesterday, how drunk you'll be on the 25th. I feel like this is a different vibe in the States because you've got that huge party week, Thanksgiving. And then it's like, you don't have a lot of time to recover for. It's Christmas party season. This is a very different experience down there. It's a 20 pound month. It's a 20 pound month if you really go for it.

Just stack it 8,000 calorie days. Yeah, you're crushing Thanksgiving. And then it rolls right into December and Christmas party, Christmas party. I mean, for us, it's team parties and kids stuff, but it's still hard not to, they drink a lot of beer down here. They love to be intoxicated. Weird. Yeah, weird. Where we're going for lunch today?

So no show tomorrow, back Thursday. Ask Rett. No show tomorrow? No, all Rett? Oh, Rett said, we can't do a show that Rett. We're a team. Damn it, Red. So, okay, so tomorrow they play.

You guys, they're a day off. Take a day off. Tomorrow's game day. So Thursday, we'll look back on the Vancouver game. Oh, boy. St. Louis on Friday. That's a lot. It's going to be busy shows.

And Ask Rett in there? And Ask Rett. And our NFL picks. Friday. Yeah, Friday. We'll do the NFL picks. That's a lot. No need to tee up a show coming up next.

Stay right here on the Flames Nation YouTube. Don't go anywhere else. Just stay here. Your messages, Rhett, you'd like to pass along? I need ideas for Christmas presents for me. So if anyone wants to send me some. You can email AskRet at Flamesnation.ca. To ask them what suggestions.

That's an email that you can use to then send your ideas. Sorry to hear that. It was three days, though, the 27th to the 30th. I mean, you should be giving yourself a little gift there. Don't need pants. I actually go skiing or maybe I'll go fishing in Florida. Oh. Are we doing the show?

Not that day. Well, we had the phone convo the other day and Rett's like, oh, maybe, you know, I'll be just kicking around. I'll be some shows. I'll be some shows. That all of a sudden it's, where's Red? I don't know. How then would that be on YouTube?

The Redster just nailing Mahi, mahi, mahis. What's that sound? Is that waves lapping on the beach? Crashing? Ah, geez, birds chirping. Well, there you go. Yeah, that's a show. I guess we'll see you Thursday.

That's what we do. We'll see you Thursday, everybody. What a show. Love the oilers, don't you're at? Nothing. All right. Wow.
