Welcome to the, welcome to the old show, the, the show Rooney.

The alpinist.
Yeah.
Chop of trees.
The fire's going.
Nice.
Things are good.
Things are good.
Dropping trees.
Is that a real fire?
Is that like an AI fire?
It doesn't matter, but whatever really.
You can't hard to throw any logs in that.
Yeah.
I mean, you could try.
I know there's got to be some logs around there somewhere.
Yeah.
Plenty of log.
A lot of logging.
Plenty of logs.
Mm.
Yeah.
Boggy, though.
Foggy doggie.
Kind of dreary.
Is that what happens in the mountains?
Can be.
You get that little valley cloud that sets right in there and all the systems move over the top.
It's like a little blanket insulating the valley.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Get used to that where you're going to do more of that.
Hey, this show is a presentation of Bet365.

And.
Yeah, sir.
We got the Super Chat.
If you're involved in the Super Chat on, if you're in the chat on the YouTube,
If you're watching live on the YouTube and you get your chats in there and you put a little money, Dan,
we'll take the money and we'll get it to the youth centers of Calgary.
And then we'll take your comments.
Put them on the show.
Yeah.
Put them around the show.
Men, fellas, biggest game of the year.
It is biggest game of the year 1.0.
I'm going to keep track.
We now officially have a biggest game of the year.
And depending on the outcome, there may be more.
There will be for sure more.
Here's hope.
It's just 1.0.
here's hoping.
Biggest game of the year.
Vancouver in town, right?
It's here.
Calgary.
Vancouver's in town.
I can tell I've got plans to go.
Come on off a back to back.
Vancouver is here.
It's like an half of a back to back.
Yeah.
Get your helmet on.
Biggest game of the year.
Oh, Mama.
In Calgary.
Oh, mama.
I'm hoping it's the only biggest game of the year.
No?
how would that work?
Well, they would win.
They'd be up by three with a game in hand.
Then they'd win the next game.
That would put them up by five and they're with Salem.
Yeah, I was looking at St. Louis.
They're actually coming.
They're seven, one and two in their last 10.
The games played aren't in their favor, but they're rolling a bit.
But they also just lost Pareko.
I get a sense we got a lot more biggest game of the years,
but I'm kind of with you.
It'd be easier on the blood pressure, but it wasn't that way.
What you don't want is April 17th makeup game in L.A.
Remember the Wildfires knocked out with that game in L.A.
That's when you.
you don't want to have to mean something.
Because that's two days after your season was supposed to end.
And I'm okay with biggest games of the year if you're having success in said biggest games, right?
Right.
Like, lose tonight's not ideal to, we definitely have more biggest games of the year.
It's tight, boys.
Look at that.
How tight?
I mean, three teams separated by one point tight.
You know what it is?
It's so tight.
It's tight.
It's tight, man.
I'll tell you who tight Vancouver lost last night yeah yeah that was a kick in the
can I bring that up the Shuffler's comment right now yeah or do we have a guest today we do
but he's he's minutes away we're minutes away from I'll wait for the guests because I really want
his take on that Shubbler's question sorry fair enough because we were we were sitting in the pub
having a pizza and a beer watching the game some interesting observation
reservations came up terminology yeah village idiot great pizza had a great pizza how about
no origin though hmm oh wow I mean the global takeover it's going to take time yeah
starting Strathmore yeah start to build out from there we're into Calgary you know
starting to really sink our sink our hook's into try and get out to like southern alberta get a
little further south.
Yeah.
You get,
yeah, the liquor store distribution.
You can get it up in Edmonton.
You get down on medicine.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Spread the word while you're out there.
You should have taken.
You should have took some product.
Yes.
Tooking some with you.
Taken.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had some too.
I had a big red Yetty cooler full.
I bet.
Yeah.
You did.
Yeah, you did.
I forgot it.
Mm-hmm.
Great cooler.
Flames.
Points in four straight.
Is that right?
Lost back to back.
They've lost six of nine.
One team kind of reeling.
The other maybe starting to go a little bit.
Crossroads?
A sword fight.
What do we?
X.
Huh?
Exhibitor?
Maybe.
I'll say this.
Now, you saw the standings.
Yeah.
Don't get overly cocky, all right?
Because remember there was a road trip they were on.
it was the nightmare and the whole thing and crushing defeats and this whole thing.
Was it yesterday?
That was your homework assignment?
Pinder was to come up with some kind of a,
we were going to have a title or a name for this next road trip.
We got to get through this one first, but we'll have it by Monday.
Monday they're in Toronto to kick off a four game and six nights.
Yeah.
A swing.
They'll be playing the St.
Pat's on Monday I saw this morning.
Oh, yeah.
The Greens.
That makes sense.
Right?
Yeah.
So they get to where their home reds on the road.
I'm sure the boys are just jacked.
I can't even focus on Vancouver tonight
because I get to wear the Reds
and Monday in Toronto.
Leaves, Rangers,
devils,
Islanders.
How do you feel about that road trip?
I think we're jumping ahead of our...
I think we're really jumping our head of ourselves.
I don't think they're thinking about it at all.
And I'm kind of with Red here.
Like you get the biggest game of the year tonight.
You get a wagon on Friday.
And then I think you're like,
okay.
Did those dusters score a goal last night in Vancouver?
They did.
It took them a while, I think.
Actually, at least Pedersen actually scored.
That's twice now in the last.
Two in his last three games after going 15 without.
So he's, he's heating up.
Yeah, they were down three nothing and came back to make it three to two,
empty net, four to two, and that's it.
Now, good news for the Canucks.
Quinn Hughes has missed some hockey this year.
Yeah.
Did not play last night?
Rick Toshea said afterwards, we expect,
we expect he'll be on the going Calgary.
Maybe in.
No, we'll wait for confirmation of morning skate today,
but he wore the red non-contact jersey.
That's right.
Skate yesterday.
A good possibility.
I don't know what that probability is.
That's head game.
They're playing headgame.
He's beating around the old bush, hey?
Come on, Rick.
So a good possibility is a 35% 50, 60%.
where do we put a good possibility?
55, 70.
55!
There we go.
Works for me.
And I suspect
it's going to be Dustin Wolf in the net
for the Calgary Flame.
Confirmed at Skate minutes ago.
Hughes might help their offense, right?
Hughes might be an MVP finalist.
He completely changes this team
from unwatchable and dreadful to just pass a
I don't like hearing that he might be back then.
I don't either.
Unless you're on Team Tank, it's all very confusing.
We just,
as long as we get clarity here at some point.
We're getting late in the year for this team tank.
I know.
Oh, God.
It's going to be hard to turn the ship around.
Then I was on a Jewel's team tank yesterday.
They went out and just slaughtered Columbus.
Yes.
Yeah.
Come on,
guys.
We're doing.
Yeah.
So dumb.
Curious who's going to start net for the,
uh,
the Canucks.
It's Lankan in last night.
He's terrible.
Lankan, well, just
Archer Silov says, hold my beer.
Lankan, it's been what, five?
I think he's gone five straight.
Lost last night.
22, 12, and 7, a 2.54 and a 905.
Those are solid numbers for a guy that did not have a job
September 1st.
Not too shabby, pal.
So he's not terrible.
He's definitely not Thatcher Demp.
Not a brand, yeah?
I thought it was not too shi.
possibility that maybe he's not terrible.
Yeah.
Arters.
Archer Seelovs, the other net minor,
because remember there was Thatcher Demko, who's quite good,
but he's hurt again.
Yeah, quietly hurt.
Not a lot of chatter.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um,
his record is one, six and one.
With a 3.85 goals against,
then an 8.58 to save percentage.
8.58.
Oh.
He has lost his last four starts,
and his lone win came back in November.
Jeez.
24.
Goosh.
Everybody came in in that series against Nashville and Edmonton.
This is a goalie of the future.
She loves.
Hey.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he was good.
He played his,
the numbers.
He played his hoop off there for a short.
Yeah.
you know, sort of a short amount of time.
Goleys, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But to me, you know what?
It's all about the flames tonight.
This is about the flames.
Okay.
Good effort in Dallas.
Another good effort in your first game home after the blown road trip.
You've taken some potential excuses.
And you've said,
those aren't drugs.
Tisk.
Don't eat them.
Don't want them.
We're not buying what you're selling.
That they got a day off.
finally.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
And now, do you think they're saying, whatever, their morning skater, do you think
they're doing the, boys, this is the biggest game of the year tonight?
Yes, I did see that in the Canucks Media, biggest game of the year tonight.
No, the flames.
Flames.
No, Flames.
Huska is going to just sit after.
Let's predict what Huska says in the scrum after.
We just got to go out and play.
Worry about ourselves.
it's going to be right into the playoff chatter, right?
Well, they've been watching this show.
And they know that Rhett was crushing them for those back-to-back games against St. Louis,
or they could have buried loose.
We're not soft as puppy poo, but you are, but we will play soft as puppy poo.
So.
Which was the puppy poo game?
Was that Tampa?
Carolina.
I think it was the Florida stuff.
Yeah, it was definitely, yeah, Carolina.
That was a rough stretch there.
Remember there was three games?
They scored one total goal.
Yeah, they had one shot in the first period after.
are going scoreless in two games.
They're not 12-1 for a bit there in the shot clock,
36 to 9 at one point.
It's not ideal.
And they have responded with five of a possible six points.
If it was after the,
I think it was after,
well, no, it couldn't have been.
What?
It was after Carolina.
Yeah.
And then they went to Dallas.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I was just trying to,
because I know there was the Tampa game.
That was not very fun.
But I was trying to just,
did they respond to you calling them out?
Yes.
Was it your tongue lashing and lamb basting that?
Clearly.
There's a new philosophy out there, Dean, that.
Colorla.
Shots were 328 against Florida in the second period at one point.
In the flames?
Yeah.
No, not for the flames.
Yeah, I think you might need to find that one on the PVR
if you're not sure who that was for.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a, it's a biggest.
Now, would the Canucks be considered a
a wounded animal coming in?
Are they desperate?
Both teams should be desperate.
They played last night.
There's plenty of desperation for sure.
Who wants it more?
I'm just too excited.
I don't know if I can continue doing the show today.
I'm crack in a beat over here.
What's time you guys getting down there?
Man.
Yeah, where are your seats?
Well, we'll meet up for a bear it after the first.
I'll meet a Duttons before the game, Dean.
Come on.
Oh, yeah.
Time to go to the insider hotline presentation of Crystal Waters plumbing and heating your
crystal clear choice for home comfort.
Hey, if you're a barn burner watcher or listener, you need a new hot water heater, an AC
or a furnace, you'll get discounts and upgrades up to $1,000 in value just for being
a part of this thing.
This right here.
Crazy, right?
403-219, 4,100.
Check them out at crystal clear, Calgary.com.
He from TSN, from the hugely popular afternoon show, Overdrive, from the sidelines, from the, between the benches with the Ottawa senators.
St. Albert Salier.
Yeah.
Charging senators.
Yeah.
As my buddy Cam Moon likes to tell me, the, the St. Albert native, Jamie McLennan joins us here on the program.
Why is that for me?
It just, yeah, I've always been called a native of St. Albert, right?
I don't know why, but I am.
I am a native of St. Albert, so there you go.
Well, yeah, that's, I mean, there's no lies there.
I know, it's just it's.
Truth bombs, that's it.
Yes, it's true bombs.
And I love Cam Moon to death, a dear friend, which it's weird the older we get.
I've known Mooner since I was like 16 years old.
So it's crazy that we're all in our 50s now.
Or some of us are.
I mean, Rhett, what are you?
40-something?
Yeah, I'm knocking on the door, buddy.
I'm knocking on the door.
And Hinder, you're like 30-something, aren't you?
What are you?
No, I just act like I'm 12.
That's what I'm doing here.
If you just cut through my legs, you can count the rings like trees.
I'm probably in my mid-40s, I think.
There you go.
See, you guys are young still.
And Boomer, you're just turned.
So we all work.
Yeah, got good numbers.
It was a joyous day.
He worked from home.
Yeah.
Now, we got retro.
Retro's out in British Columbia.
He's enjoying some time away from the city.
Now, what did you have, Retro?
You said you were watching with your lovely bride last night.
Yeah, we were at the pub pizzeria joint,
The Village Idiot last night.
We went for some pizza on the way out to Penticton.
Nice.
The Canucks were playing the Habs.
And the shoveler made a, she was curious who the beer leaguer was that was playing on the HAB's team.
And who was that?
Well, if we have video, it would be great because Savard is massive.
Yes.
And he looks like a beer leager movie.
Like, he is that, I didn't know who it was.
She's like, who is that fat guy?
She was calling him a contest winner, basically.
Yes, yes.
I think there was a marketplace for him at the deadline too.
I mean, I don't know if he's a bad player,
but I was stunned at the size of the man.
Well, what it is, if you, I mean,
you guys are around players all the time.
Everybody is so thin and gaunt, right?
Like it just, it's a vast league, right?
So it's when you see a guy who's carrying some meat,
you're like, that guy, that's like a outlier.
You know, a guy who's 225, 230 type of thing.
Those guys are outliers because everybody is now tall and lean.
They're 6-2, 185, 190, 200.
You know, that's what you're dealing with.
But you get a guy who's 6-2, 6-3 and he's too.
Like, Ovi's an outlier.
Ovi looks like a trailer out there.
He's so big.
And he's got the, you know, the gray hair and there's no gel.
It's just like he's got a chia pet head.
And it just, you know, whatever happens there.
But I was hoping he got three assists last night.
I was watching that game.
I had that, I had the Vancouver game on as well that Montreal.
Montreal won't go away.
They're trying to make the playoffs.
I don't know what the hell's going on there.
But, you know, this Lane Hudson is really, and that top line is, is, is that top lines
really come together for them.
Cawfield, I think, scored what was his 32nd last night.
He's.
Suzuki's got 15 in his last eight.
Yeah, I mean, and Slevkosky scored.
I didn't love the goal he scored.
I mean, from Lankan standpoint, but they're trying.
So I heard you before I came in, and Vancouver should be a wounded animal.
They should be, you know, this should be all hands on deck between Vancouver, Calgary.
Like, this is a playoff spot right there for you.
It's for the taken.
So in my opinion, the Canucks have changed that they played.
Since the J.T. Miller deal, they're trying to win low scoring games, probably because they can't score.
But when you brought in Marcus Pedersen, like, it's turned into a very low event group.
They've got Drew O'Connor on their top line potentially tonight.
They have a real tough time getting to three, four goals.
This is the style of hockey, the flames have played all year long.
Like getting to four, plan a parade for this group.
They scored once on Hockey Night Canada and won because of Wolf on Saturday.
Yeah.
I just feel like if it's going to be a low,
event best goalie wins,
Flames should be really comfortable with this matchup tonight.
About 100%.
100%.
You know, and it's in Calgary, right?
So home ice and, you know, you've got a lot of different things.
Wolf's record remind me on home ice is quite ridiculous.
You know, so I do believe if you're just going, okay, who should win this game?
Just based on the stuff you just laid out, that's who it looks like for me.
me.
Yeah, back-to-back is not good for Vancouver.
If they roll with She-Lovs, it's even worse for Vancouver.
Flame seemed to be feeling good.
Dean, you talked about it.
The Canucks are reeling a bit here.
Patterson is starting to show some signs of life, though.
He went over a month without more than one shot in a single game,
and now it's two goals in his last three.
Yeah, I mean, he is starting to come around.
The one thing I've noticed about him is he's trying to shoot Pucksmore.
That's the thing.
You need to shoot.
That guy is a
It wasn't that long ago
He had a lethal shot
Like a scary shot
And you know
I don't know
This isn't me
There's feedback in there
This isn't me
Is somebody in a dumpster
Is it is it Redd?
No, Rhett's in a Tim Hortons
Yeah
Someone's
Oh is Tim Hortons
Well I'm on the road
Show the art
Show the art
I'm on the road too
I'm sitting in my car
Like I
You're
You're
Silled up with a bunch of
senior citizens at a Tim Hortons.
Don't worry about it.
I got a nice picture back there.
Look at that.
I'm going, is their feedback?
What's going on? Is that me?
Like, I'm like, there's not a party going on in my car here.
Okay, so now I know there is some noise from the guy.
But yeah, I think of going back, honestly, this sets up nicely for the Calgary Flames.
But you, again, you can't, this is the weird thing.
And I think this has been consistent all season long.
The minute you think it's going to be a two, one,
Somehow it's a 7-6 tonight.
And, you know, somebody has an off game, a goalie pull.
You know, Nazim Cadry scores a hat trick out of nowhere, like stuff like that.
You know, top players show up.
And this peterson, you know, I know there's three Pedersons on Vancouver,
but the one that they're paying 11.6 million, that guy can be dangerous if he ever got his game back.
And you never want to be the team that goes, okay, we help jumpstart get.
this guy career back or his season back on on track so you're going to have to pay attention to
him because he can be dangerous if you give him time and space i got the wolf uh home numbers for
you 2.17 goals against a 928 three shutouts all on home ice 15 6 and 2 yeah i mean that i know there's
a spirited debate uh about who's going to win rookie of the year and i actually had it last
night off air with some people in Philadelphia. I called the Philadelphia Ottawa game.
And, you know, you're watching the Meachkoff kid there. So they're all biased in Philadelphia,
right? And so I said, I just simply said, I'm in the media room and you're surrounded by
lots of Philadelphia media. And I said, well, Dustin Wolf wins it for me if Calgary gets into
the playoffs. I just said, I'm sorry. That's, that's, and of course, you're a goalie hugger. You
used to play for the flames, all of that type of stuff. Yes, I said, I agree. I'm not going to,
you know, argue on that point. But also, he's been their MVP. He has been their best player,
their most consistent. I mean, am I wrong with that assessment? No, they're a bottom five team
without them, in my opinion. Right. So, you know, that is the definition of somebody who's been
special, had a special season. And it's no slight on Meachkoff. It's no slight on Lane Hudson.
no slight on Celebrini, who I think is an absolute superstar stud.
It's just, if there is a separator, if those four are all lined up, you know, maybe Montreal
makes the playoffs.
So you got to go Lane Hudson.
You got to, now should the playoffs, I guess my question back to you three is should
the playoffs be a separator?
I think for Wolf, it has to be just because he's carrying the load.
I feel less so about Celebrini, Mishkov and Lane Hudson.
Like Mishkov is getting put in the rafters,
tort.
Like them not being a
playoff team,
I don't put that on him.
I agree.
But it just,
that was the biggest argument
is saying,
okay,
so what if Wolf
stands on his head
and Calgary misses
by one point?
Do you take it away from him?
And I said,
it's actually a great argument
because then now he,
to me that,
I just said the playoffs
could be the separator for him.
That was my argument.
If they don't make the playoffs,
if all four of these guys
don't make the playoffs,
Now it's a crapshoot.
Then it's whoever's voting, whoever feels, I still am leaning Wolf,
but I could see the other three winning as well.
They've all been fantastic in their first seasons.
But that's why I'm leaning.
Okay, if Calgary can make the playoffs, for me, that's Wolf slam dunk for me.
Okay, so build me the case why anyone should vote for Mishkov over Celebrini.
Because I think Celebrini missed time and has impressed more as a younger man
on a worse team.
Yeah, I mean, I would have to look at their, I don't have their stats right in front of me,
but I think we said last night, Mischoff has seven power play goals, I think.
So he's not getting, you know, Torch has not given him the power play time and all of that.
I believe that was the stat we used last night.
So he is getting some five-on-five play.
There is the, you know, bad team scenario.
Same thing as San Jose.
I personally, having watched both of the.
them live, you know, now several times, I would give it to Celebrini over Meachkoff,
personally, because I think Celebrini does more. And I think Celebrini being 18, what is
Meachcroft? 20, 21. Yeah, it just played 10 less games. You got better numbers across the board.
Yeah, like, so. Celebrini is, it would be every day of the week for me, because I think
Celebrini is more of a complete player. You know, you dig into his analytics. I remember looking,
I think at one point in the, he was number one.
one in loose puck recoveries in the league.
Yeah.
As an 18-year-old, which is, that's an unreal stat.
That could be a separator for me with Salabrini.
You know, and Lane Hudson, I look at him, I don't think he had a great defensive start,
but he's really started to settle in as an everyday player playing big minutes.
And every time he's on the ice, he is a guy that brings you to the edge of your seat.
He does have that Quinn Hughes vibe, like where it's like, this guy can create something out of nothing.
and he's playing with a ton of confidence.
So if I had to rank them just personally,
I go Wolf, Celebrini, Hudson, Meetschkoff.
But I don't, like there isn't,
it's a thin, razor thin margin.
Hudson's got so many points.
If he is a rookie, that's going to be tough to beat.
I do think, I agree with the news.
I think he's got,
the flames have to make the playoffs for Wolf to win this award, I think.
Yeah.
Not for you, but to get everyone else's votes.
I'm trying to make some noise about it,
because I just feel like
goaltenders, they're afterthought,
but I'm, you know, I agree with you,
Pender, like, where is the Calgary
Flames without Dustin Wolf?
We had the Vladar
argument or debate last week,
right? Like, if Lidar
is the number one for the
season, you know, for the season, and Wolf
has played 18 games,
20 games, like then
the flames are not where they are in the standings.
They're just not. We're asking you about Michael
Mesa, if that's the case, right? Like,
Yeah.
I'm not sure.
I was just checking.
I don't see his name.
Ivan Fidotov.
Is he a rookie?
Would he be up for the Calder?
Because you watched him play in that Flyers net last night.
The mutant.
That like six foot eight mute, like,
holy smokes.
Like, you know,
remember that show Harry and the Henderson's that when they drive him around,
they'd strap that guy to the roof?
Like,
I felt like they just brought this guy out and put this monster in the net.
Like, it was,
he is so big.
And bad.
Well, listen, that team is like, you know, we were looking at it.
They've got some nice pieces.
Noah Cates is the number one centerman.
You know, like they're, and, and,
and Caturier agent and Miles have caught up to him.
I really like Connect me.
I think they've got some really nice pieces.
Forrester's a nice player.
Owen Tipp, it's a nice player.
you know we saw what Travis Anheim is is capable of doing really good player they've got a few nice pieces but there there is a reason why they were in a retool like they're they've got a ton and we ran a board of it last night a ton of picks three first rounders next year and like four second round stuff like that so I think Danny Breyer is going to have to be proactive at training or at the draft this year and turn that into live players and not just draft a bunch of people like when you're were you between the bench
last night or were you up top?
I was up top and I could still see how big that guy was.
Well, but I was going to say where you did because if you're between the benches,
you want to look over at torts.
Because I mean, the Kachuk, it's a, it's a good shot, but probably stopped that.
The Cleven from the point, I mean, definitely stopped that.
There were at least three that went through him that were awful.
And the flames were just there.
And it was the Erson guy.
Sam Erson was in it.
And he was no frigging good.
Yeah.
I mean, poor torts.
Well, Orson actually has decent stats.
The Fedotov guy, that guy's stats are no good.
And so we also ran aboard, too, of his goal support.
So the goaltenders that played last night, Anton Forsberg and Ivan Fedotov,
that's what we were using last night, have the least goal support in the league this year.
It's just over 20 or something like that.
now maybe the team is scared to have him in net so they play differently i i've felt that
you know ret can speak to that he was terrified when i was in the net but it's more um i i i just
don't think like he's 28 listen let's you know the elephant in the room is is carter
heart is not available to them right that's just you know that was their guy um i don't think
he'll ever play again i don't know i'm not going to head down that road
but they haven't been able to replace him consistently.
You know what?
I just,
I sent you the text this morning because I watched,
I went back and I was watching the highlights from the games last night.
I was like,
ooh,
that's a stinker.
That's a staker.
And then they showed,
they showed towards you.
Yeah.
Just steaming behind the bench cannot get a save.
I will say.
And I sent you a text.
I'd be like,
you should be in the flyers net.
He's like,
yeah,
if you're flying home from Philly,
I'll be at home for the show today.
I was like, well, you could probably get that flyer gig.
But you had a very valid point.
I didn't realize you can't because.
I'm still suspended.
You're still suspended.
So I owe the league four games.
They'll never get them from me because I can barely touch my toes now.
So it's, you know, the flexibility, it never was there, but now it's even worse at 53 coming 54.
Does Terry like scow at you when you see him in hallways at convention centers and league events?
Like, do he knows you're still in the rap list there?
You know what?
And I've had a beer with with.
Bill Daley.
We have talked about it because it's funny.
Pierre Dorian came to me one time years ago when he was the manager in Ottawa and said in a pinch,
you know, would you be an e-bug type of thing?
Because we were in Florida.
I don't know if you guys remember.
I think it was Ottawa, Florida.
And Luongo got hurt.
Their backup Al Montoya came in and blew out his groin.
the e-bug.
Like I think Scotty Upshull
had the gear on in the
dressing room.
And the joke was like
Noodles, would you be the e-bug?
And I just said to them.
I'm like, I'm still suspended.
So there, like,
I remember Pierre Dorian came to me
and he said, you know, on your behalf,
like would I be able to ask, like, should I ask
the league if they would wave
and you could be an e-bug?
And I was like, I don't know, man.
Like, like it would be,
It would be kind of funny, but I was like, keep in mind, like, I don't really want to play a goal anymore.
Like, I don't, you know, I wouldn't be any good and I wouldn't be any better than any eBug coming in.
So it would be a good story.
It would be great for the media.
But, but Pierre did ask me, and I kind of chuckled, but I, I've seen Gary.
I've seen Bill.
You know, it's another lifetime, right?
So they, they, I'm sure they don't even remember.
I'm not, like, I've heard of, I'm trying to think of what it would be.
Now, there's buyers remorse.
it's when you buy something.
It's like, oh, I shouldn't have done it.
Maybe you have sellers remorse or I shouldn't have sold that.
For Craig Conroy, where you were maybe going to be a buyer and then you weren't as non-buyer's remorse because I'm watching Dylan Cousins in a senator's jersey.
And we heard for weeks about how the flames were in on Dylan Cousins.
Like, man, it feels like that'd be great if you could get that guy.
I don't know how the trade.
I don't know that it makes sense in any way for these two teams.
But boy, he'd be, he'd be a good fit as a flame.
he's like a dirty shirt
watching him score we talked about it
Sanderson with that pass two games ago
the one timer into the empty net and the way they celebrated
it's like they've got something cooking now boy
yeah offalo I mean there's
what's Buffalo doing and cousins just feels like
here we go him and Kachuk two peas and a pod these guys
well and he moved in right away with Batherson
because they had they were friends from World Junior
and, you know, so that there's some of a familiarity about it.
I don't want, I feel bad for Buffalo because is this going to be another guy that leaves Buffalo and flourishes?
Yes.
Why do you feel bad for them?
They're painful.
Well, it just at some point, like I kept thinking like.
Well, they do it to themselves.
Don't say at some point, because at some point it's been over 14 years, 14 years.
14. Right. It's going to be 14 years, no, no playoffs. And here's a 24-year-old, 6-foot-3,
right-shot centerman. You know, he's had... Locked in with a contract.
Within a contract. He's got 18 hits in three games. Now, he's not going to beat people up,
but he will show up. Everyone's pointing, you know, cocky and Emmy beat him up. I'm like,
hey, you know what? It happens. But the guy wasn't afraid to drop.
the gloves. He plays, you know, a spirited game. Beautiful goal last night. You can't really blame
Fidoff on that one, Boomer. It's a nice giveaway from behind the net. I mean, goodness,
gracious. Incredibly, it was, yeah, it was nonsense what was going on. Like I say, Torz's head
changed a lot of different shades of color last night. I will say, I'm going to go back quickly.
John Tortorella has changed his fashion sense on the bench, and I love it. He's got the
sweaters on now. The coaches have
sweaters on. So it's almost like an NBA
situation. Like, I want to get to
a point where coaches are wearing track suits.
He's going to quarter zip. That's what he's done.
I said it when I retired. When I started
coaching in the NHL, I'm wearing a
track suit. That's it. I'm Bill Belichick.
Yeah, I mean, you would wear
yeah, you'd be Belichick. It'd be the cutoff
sleeves. You'd be Andy
Reed. Remember Andy Reid during COVID?
He had
he had the plastic
mask? The big window?
It was fogging up, and all the memes on the internet were like X's and O's.
It was the greatest.
I will say the internet is undefeited when it comes to, like, ridiculous things like that.
Like Andy Reid talking to Mahomes, and his face shield is all fogged up, and you're like, this guy is not even watching the game.
So I don't know how to get off track, but Dylan Cousins is a great fit for Ottawa.
they had to give up. I mean, everyone loves Josh Norris.
And, you know, Josh Norris was on display against Edmonton the other night because Evan
Bouchard went back and in his usual lawn chair and turn the puck.
And there it was. Norris turned that puck over.
And, yeah, Norris was able to poke away and Thompson went in and scored the game winning goal right there.
So, you know, I think I'm hoping for both organizations, that's a win-win for a trade.
Because I really love Josh Norris, too.
Second rounder is going to be the killer.
Guarantee you that second round pick is going to turn into just a stalwart.
Pavlbadoot, Pabledatz, suk, or somebody like that, right?
I were laughing.
It was just like, of course the second rounder is going from Buffalo to Ottawa.
Like, of course, the guy whose shoulders can fall off at any moment,
you got to throw in the extra second to get him when you're giving away your cost-controlled,
young 20s, huge leader that's already flirted with 70 points.
Make sure you throw in that extra second.
We're taking some shots of the Sabres,
but they do deserve it, do they not?
Have you heard rational?
Like, I have not been able to understand the move.
Even if you like Norris, the second rounder, going the other.
I don't get it.
Like, does it make sense?
Am I just being, am I too emotionally attached?
I don't, I think we're all emotionally attached.
When you watch organizations and go, what the hell's going on?
Like, I think you're just, you're looking at it,
and you see guys leave there and flourish,
and you're like, boy, it would be nice for them to have this guy.
It'd be nice for them.
Like, even in my mind, now, Norris is 25.
So it's a swapping out of Sanderman, you know, on paper, Norris is a better goal score,
which I do believe he is.
But, you know, he's also had the luxury of that one-timer position on the power play
and Ottawa's had a really good power play, you know, the last couple years.
So I just think a change of scenery, you know, is a good thing.
and the one thing that I kind of get the messaging out of Ottawa now too is
they don't want to just be content to go,
hey, we can make the playoffs.
They're trying to build a winner there.
And they shook the core up.
You saw the emotion from Brady Kachuk.
Like that was his best friend.
Like that core drafted, developed, lived together,
come up together, sign these big contracts together.
I think they felt, and again,
I have not gotten confirmation from the organization on that,
that maybe there was a little too comfortable there.
And we needed to, you know, have a little jolt,
a little cattle prod on the core and say,
just so you know, you guys have long-term deals,
but you got to live up to them and earn them.
And, you know, it shook the room.
There's no doubt about it.
You could even from Travis Green's media to Brady Kachucks,
but you saw what Brady did the next day.
24 hours later, he's, you know,
yelling and screaming with the crowd and his media,
after with Claire Hanna.
You know, he scores a game-winning goal.
Like it was awesome.
But that's Brady in a nutshell.
He's an emotional guy.
And you want him as your leader.
And I think Cousins is going to be a great fit there.
Shane Pinto's a player.
You know, Stutzler's for me as a superstar.
I just, I watch him as he gets more and more experienced control play.
You know, Sanderson's a superstar.
And if the goal he can hold up, they might have something there in Ottawa.
Battle of Ontario, that'd be nice to see.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if the Leafs will end up first.
I've always thought they were going to be third in the Atlantic,
but I thought Tampa was going to end up first.
Florida left, they pissed away two points last night.
They were up two nothing, I think, with 10 minutes left or 16 minutes left.
So I think it's tomorrow, it's Toronto, Florida.
That's a big game in Toronto.
So, you know, at the end of the day, we're going to be scored board watching right down the stretch here, including, you know, the flames looking at their schedule, looking at Vancouver schedule.
Is there anybody else that won't go away there?
St. Louis.
Utah is even close.
Well, Utah is around, but St. Louis is like 7-1 and 2 in their last 10.
That's a team that is actually playing some good hockey.
I think everyone likes Montgomery, the coach, and, yeah, they're missing some guys.
but it's just the game's played.
They're right there with points, noodles.
Have a peek.
Yeah.
Well, that's the biggest thing.
I don't know if people are trying to give it away,
but that spot is up for grabs.
So who's getting it?
That's basically what it is.
Who's going to get it?
You know, I think Calgary can do it,
but the stars have to align.
Because like you said, it's a race to four.
Four is a big number.
Cool.
I just, it's, that's not a, that's not a realistic number daily,
or, you know, nightly for them to get to four.
Can I ask, can I ask you about Brindamore and the Keynes and the rantin and stuff?
Like, are you, did you look at that like, like, that was a shot at ownership from Brindamore?
A hundred percent.
Like, it was, I was like, is that a shot at ownership?
Is that a shot at Tulski and Delo or like the analytics guys?
He's basically saying, like, you probably should have known this before you acquire this asset.
And the fact that he kind of outed and said, yeah, the guy showed up and said there's four teams I want to sign with, and you guys aren't one of them.
Like, that's like, oh.
And we always have this saying, our, oh, dog, on our show, always have this saying, like, fireable offense.
You know, but it's not a fireable offense if the owner is in lockstep with the general.
manager. And that's what it seems like. So, like, in their, in their mind, they, they turned,
um, which is NACES into Stancoven and some firsts and, you know, they got picks and all of that.
So they're going to swing again or use the, the picks as currency. So I get it. I understand it from
a business standpoint. They're like, okay, natures, we didn't love. Probably wasn't, you know,
they had a problem with the dad and it was a pain in the ass and all of that. Um, they turned
into Stancoven, but that's a weird way to get to Stan Coven.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, that's, that, that wasn't, that's plan C.
That wasn't plan A, you know, and we talked about it on Friday.
The vibes, you could just see the, the vibes were no good with Rantan in there.
That was, they had to.
You could have, hey, we're going to go and we'll worry about your contract when the season's
over.
We're going to go for the cup.
I don't think they were winning shit with Rantan in there.
He didn't want to be there.
It wasn't work.
what they got in return, the picks,
and they had to make that trade,
even though, like you said,
they did well in the end for kind of being back into a corner.
I think they did well,
but I think there's probably a few things that,
you know,
if you had made everybody sit in a room and drink truth serum,
would you talk to Ranton in and his agent and say,
okay,
would you have taken 12 in Colorado on an eight-year deal?
and just call it a day and stay in a comfortable setting.
Now, I don't know what Colorado was offering,
but I don't think they were offering him $6 million a year.
I'm sure they probably could have gotten.
They were offering to make him the highest paid winger in the league,
which would put him in the mid-11s.
It puts him ahead of Asternac.
Obviously, Leon's a center.
He's the same agency, but he wasn't going to get to the 14.
So you're in that 12 conversation.
Oh, yeah.
So every day.
He's getting quite a bit more than what they offered.
caller, I don't know. Right. So like at the end of the day, I just feel like you, you know,
this is where maybe I'm wrong on this. I feel like some agents have to have a little bit of a
check here and go like, what is best for the player? Not there's the financial thing. What is best for
the player and his life and his comfortability? And I would, I would say to the player too,
if you don't like what you're seeing, you know, stand up to your agent. Your agent works for you. You
be in lockstep with the agent. Because I see
sometimes, you know, guys,
you hear stories, too, of guys
turning down deals. You're like,
why the hell that guy turned that deal down?
And then they get a lesser deal
somewhere else. And you're like,
what the hell? Like, who's
selling you a bill of goods that you're worked
that amount? And all of a sudden, now you're
flushed out of the league or you sign
a crappy deal somewhere else on a starter deal.
So Ferris is notorious for this. Is he not?
It's a max dollar, max term,
on my how I do it.
Is that a situation where a guy like
Marner should be going to chill out.
I don't need to be the highest paid.
I like where I am. We have a chance to win.
I don't want to go anywhere. Let's
pull the reins in a bit.
You're right. And Darren Ferris
has a lot of,
he has Sam Bennett as well. So I think it's going to
be, you know, there's always
going to be, and I get it. Term
money. I'm not
going to sit and tell a guy, hey, take
less for anything. You get as
much as you can. Good on you. No, but you're not, but the agent is just what you said.
The agents should say, you have to weigh that out. The player. But exactly. It's, okay, so you just
brought up Mitch Marner. Mitch Marner is certainly in the driver's seat from an unrestricted
for agent scenario. But, you know, are you going to get 14 million from Utah? Because I don't
know if you're going to get it from the Leafs. Maybe you will. I don't know. But in the end,
he comes out the other day. And this is where it's a little bit.
bit of a storm is it's like I you know I love the leaves want to be here and people like okay
we'll sign a contract then you know like get it done like that it's well I want to I want to just
focus on this season and all of that like to me it's the lip service that's what bothers me they ask
him to wave he doesn't want to wave again this is all reported stuff you're you're closer to it
does he come across as a guy that's just giving you the lip service or is this direction's
from the agent I think it's from the camp
Like, you know, I think...
The dads and you too, right?
I believe there's just...
As we all know nowadays,
these young players are these star players,
you're not just getting the player,
you're getting the brand and the package.
And with the package, we don't, you know,
if the parents are involved, the wife, the girlfriends,
all of...
And I'm not talking Mitch Martyr.
I'm just talking every player now.
Because you have to factor that in.
You hear stories of like,
yeah, the guy loved it,
the wife didn't like the city. So, you know, you're, and you're like, oh, my God. Like,
you know, that's, but that comes with the package nowadays. So that's why I use the term. And the
agent is a big part of the package. And if the parents are wedged in there and the wife and
if they've got kids and the city, like there's, you know, brothers and sisters, like it's a,
it's a whole, you know, posse or it's a whole situation now. It's just, I was talking to somebody
the other day. And I don't even know. I think my parents met my agent like a couple times. I don't even
think they talked to them, like ever. And nowadays you hear the agent talks to the father all the time
and talks with the player and you're like, I guess it's just a different world. And I have to respect
that. But it is a little bit weird. And it comes back to what you're saying. Right. Like at some point,
the player has to stand up and go, I want to play here, get the deal done, and let's move on. And whenever the
time frame that is, that's what we'll
see with Mitch Marner or Sam Bennett
or all these other players that are coming up
that are unrestricted free agents.
Are there any of these entourages have openings that I could
apply for? It sounds like pretty good. You just
hang around to zillion air. So
you would be like, what's that
show? Entourage would you be
turtle? Would you be?
I'm in the pool at 2 a.m.
Johnny drama.
Johnny drama is like, hey, I'm a
D-List actor, you know? Like
the one guy, kept
Connolly, he's a big Islander fan.
He's huge hockey fan.
Yeah, so that's E.
Isn't that?
Was it E?
That's the name?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you know what?
I would, I mean, being part of an, I was part of Rett Warner's entourage.
There you go.
Very good.
Very, very.
I came to Calgary and I know who was the lead of our entourage.
It was not.
Robin Regier, I can't believe that guy was the leader of our entourage.
Gosh, no, we had a good, we had a good little, who was Vinny then?
Who would be Vinny?
I think Rhett was Vinny.
Iggy?
Yeah, Iggy didn't.
Iggy's a star.
Iggy was a star, but Iggy wasn't, you know, Iggy wasn't involved in, you know, other stuff.
I think, I think, I think, I think, it was, it was Rhett.
Rhett was the star of the show.
Monty.
Yeah, Steve Monti.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, Mika, yeah, but yeah.
Mika was a part-time.
It was Monty.
Yeah, it was Steve Montador.
Steve Mondador in his mind could do anything.
Like, anything.
Like, he was the Uncle Rico from, what's that called?
Anything.
Yeah.
What was that, what's that show?
Napoleon Dynamite.
Yeah.
I can throw this football over that mountain.
That was Steve Montador.
It was the fight.
Like, he was the best.
I love that, man.
All right, brother.
We appreciate you.
Good to have you.
And, man, if this ebug thing, I think this got some legs.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, we'll get to clear your name.
Yeah, we're going to clear your name.
I would like to clear my name.
I would like to apply.
I wonder if you could get a pardon.
Yes.
Yes.
That's what I'm talking about.
Okay, I'm going to ask for a pardon.
Then we can work on the hall.
But first.
Imagine, if you're doing.
the broadcast, then all of a sudden there's like, like the red phone or something.
It's like bring.
Yeah.
I'm going in.
Better get ready.
I'm going in.
It would be the best.
Fellas, I got to go.
I got.
Then you're between the benches.
You got your lowers on.
You got the pads and the standing there.
Stretching out.
Be awesome.
I would make a skate save too.
I would.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right, guys.
Have a good one.
You too.
There is.

Noodles, new man since he went away on that vacation.
I didn't sound like he was enjoying the sun or the sun.
No, he's miserable.
He's happy to be back.
But that system just absorbed that vitamin D, Dean.
It's just coursing through his veins.
Yeah, it really is.
He is, he's feeling it.
Yeah, watching those, I mean, cousin scores again.
They're rolling.
I mean, hey, good.
They've been, they've been bad for a long time.
They got some good young players.
You wondered when they were going to be able to turn the corner.
There's another good young player there.
Not that Norris wasn't, I guess, but.
He just so much better fits what they're trying to do.
I haven't seen a lot of Josh Norris.
I understand there's impressive years, but the injury track record is alarming and disturbing.
And if you can get out from under that and get the better player and have someone give you a second rounder,
God.
Yeah.
I just, that's the thing.
Yeah.
So I don't know how Calgary was going to get the deal done.
Well, if you knew it was also coming with a second round pick.
Oh, okay, we'll dig a little deeper to see how we can get this thing going.
I mean, yeah, who's the comparable?
It's more than Zeri.
It's more than Coronado.
Like, it's not a deal they could make.
There's no one that fits that.
I mean, that's assuming Buffalo had a plan here.
Maybe they're just being idiots.
Like, what is they?
But, I mean, if they were looking for a mid-20s guy that could score 40,
like the flames don't have one of those.
Yeah.
Norris has that a couple of years.
Yeah, like there's some skill there.
But, I mean, playoffs are what?
Physical or not physical?
Remind us, like, do injuries pile up or no?
I feel like it gets physical and the whistles kind of.
You know what?
Josh Norseme, perfect, in Buffalo.
They don't have to worry about playoff hockey.
Yes.
So, yes.
Don't worry about these hard physical series.
You just play 82 regular season games for 60.

How does that work?
Dean, you'd be the expert here.
Well, I...
You got a scan.
Yeah.
I don't want to side.
I believe it's maybe a little double-dippet.
I don't know the rules.
Go to your own.
Let's see what the thing is away with.
The shoveler steals all my online.
Yeah. Yeah. All your things there.
So a couple things we've got to get.
to before the,
the Pinder report.
We'll start, uh, we'll start here.
Coming up on Monday.
Monday is St.
Patty's Day.
It's also a game day.
Flames on the road in Tarana to play the St.
Pat's.
St. Pat's. Yeah.
Yeah.
So to, uh, it's just there's, there's a confluence of events.
A lot going on here.
A lot going on there.
St. Patty's Day. It's a game day. It's a thing.
We're jumping on it with Cowboys Casino.
We're doing it.
We are going to be taking this program, this show live to Cowboys.
On Monday, March 17th, we're going to, it's going to be a little bit later.
We're going to let you sleep in.
Oh, baby.
We're going at 3.30.
It's a 5 o'clock start local for Calgary and Toronto, Eastern Time Zone.
So we're going to head over to the legendary Cowboys Casinos, head to the sports lounge set up there.
Do Barnburner about 330.
30.
She's like a little pregame show.
Maybe we'll have some boots on the ground.
You just never know.
We might have some boots on the ground.
We will.
And you know what we're going to do being at St.
Paddy's Day?
We may hang out, have a few drinks, watch the game.
So we'd love to come and join us.
Yeah.
Come for a hang at Cowboys this coming Monday,
St. Patty's Day.
We'll have some green beers and then watch the match.
And you get to watch this thing.
Yeah, I don't know.
that that's the draw, but I mean, it feels like it's far down, right? Like St. Paddy's Day,
big game, Toronto, lots of leave fans, flames fans, all that. It's in there somewhere, I'm sure.
For people, right? To, I mean, if you drink enough green beer, it might be really entertaining
this show. Yeah, that's true. That was my thought. Yeah, that's true. Maybe if we drink a.
And you see at the bottom there, a presentation of Fountain Tire. Good old Fountain Tire. One near you.
I need, I, I, I, you know what? Uh-oh.
I might need a couple sets, actually, as it turns out.
So the summers are done and the winners don't have much left?
Is that what I'm hearing?
Well, no, the winters are good.
Okay.
But we kind of coasted through summer.
It's like, well, we know we're going to get the winners and come spring.
You know, we'll get the new ones.
So thank goodness for Fountain Tire.
Yeah.
They're going to be able to set you up.
You're going to set me up.
I can set you up too.
So we're looking forward to that on Monday.
That's going to be a heck of a day.
That's going to be a big game.
I mean, I think, you know, Toronto's made some big moves.
You're always going to have the Tre Living's teams.
Where's Calgary at?
What's going on with the new squad?
And look, they're fighting for to not face a Tampa or Florida in round one.
As good as their year's been.
I don't know that I love them against either of those teams right now.
Both those teams bulked up big time at the deadline.
If you can somehow win the Atlantic, now you're talking about a wildcard team and not two teams that combined have, what, four cups?
three cups in the last little bit yeah i was just thinking more of green beer
i'm sure the game's going to be something i mean you know it's early start you like that
yeah st patty's day great girl you love you love st patty's day i do love st patty's day
is the green beer for uh for total phonies and fakers or is are you totally in for the green
beer i don't have a clue why it's just beer is fine thanks i don't need any just they'll die
green no do you have any of that allure red c
F 40s.
The old shamrock piss or the leprechaun piss.
I don't need it.
I mean, it's up to you.
It's whatever you want to do.
But we will be there on Monday afternoon.
3.30.
Come and join us, would you?
Now, yesterday about this time, we started the,
because we have the candy bracket.
Which is underway.
And we told you that we had the 16,
the bracket of 16, but we were short two.
Yeah.
Because we had four, four kind of, the selection committee, they felt what would be the most fair thing to do is just have a quick little wild card, just a play in round, four candies, two winners, those two move on to the main bracket.
And we lost Jack halfway through the show yesterday.
Yeah.
We just, we had the voting started and he was watching it.
And we recall for something.
I can't focus.
Jack, I mean.
did you spend all day just watching the votes come in on the wild cards?
Yes, I did.
Well, one of the matchups, as you'll see, kind of was a bit of a blowout.
But this one came right, the other one came right down to the end.
Right down.
I was getting updates, sir, today.
So can you remind us then what the, uh, the two matchups were?
Yeah, let's run through the graphics.
All right.
Let's run through the graphics.
The dinosaurs and the airheads.
Now we know what the dinosaurs are.
Right.
Delicious.
and I mean not crazy sour
but like a tinge right like not like some of the like sour patch kids are real sour
it's just kind of a little just a little sour in there
the airheads feels like it's a kid more for the younger generation
unlike us old guys my daughter loves them it's like a I get it's like strips of taffy
kind of thing they're popular but who better than us
I mean come on let's let the people have their their voices heard to the
votes we go for the dinosaurs and the airheads. Is this the,
is this the blowout? Oh, we'll find out. And the other one had the blue whales taking on the
high choose. Oppos to the spectrum right here. You're talking about a tried test in true
blue whale and the massive variety in the huge range of markets for the high choose.
There was some, uh, there was some thought that maybe the blue whales is starting to tiptoe
into the Worthers Scotch Mintz territory of being an old person candy.
I'm not sure if that's fair.
I know you,
I know you're a big proponent of the blue whales.
Uh,
high choose is clearly,
it's a today deal.
This is,
this is the,
this is a kid's,
uh,
kid's kind of candy.
So only two will advance.
My heart's beaten.
My heart's beaten.
The candy bracket.
Oh,
yes, yes, yes.
Whoa.
Suck it, boom.
You told me the whales and the sours weren't worthy.
Boom.
Eat it.
The high shoes.
Man, that's, is there any, is there any need for a recount?
Do we need to, uh, that is a battle.
That's close.
This morning at one point and it was within two.
Wow.
It was tied yesterday around dinnertime.
Like this was very close.
And the airheads got absolutely throttled.
Yeah.
Congrats to the dinosaurs.
That's a decisive win,
and that probably gives them a little bit of helium
heading into the bracket, boys.
I was going to say they're going to have some real swagger
now going into this main bracket.
Even though they're going to have
one of the top people to contend.
Oh, man.
Oh.
But there it is.
Can we take the BB down?
I'm not sure how it works.
It's kind of covering up the two versus 50.
There we go.
So the dinosaur.
They advance in convincing fashion.
They get the fuzzy peaches.
That's going to be.
That's a reward.
Jeez.
That is a rough pull, but like you say,
they got to be feeling it.
Definitely.
And then the blue whales,
can they keep it rolling against the cola bottles?
Look at that bracket.
Isn't it beautiful?
It's so nice.
It's so beautiful.
And how about the blue whales and the cola?
is like we're talking about two of the original like five cent bin candies that are still relevant today that's it that's an old school matchup there it's a yeah it's a bulk
at your gas station you could probably go right now and start yeah using little little tongy deals and having some blue whales and some cola bottles there was some controversy there was some thoughts as so why cola bottles when we did the original candy bros
racket four or five years ago, and we've talked about this, we were stunned.
We were to the point we thought the people were maybe trying to hijack the vote.
Because the cola bottles kept winning and winning and decisively winning and advancing.
Are they going to be able to win this whole thing?
And they absolutely did.
They were the undisputed champion the first time around.
Now, they earned the number one seat.
Has too much time passed?
Hard to say.
Don't know.
Let's learn a little bit more, maybe, about the defending champion, the cola bottles.
Cola bottles.
They hear it.
Oh, yeah, they hear it.
The blatant disrespect.
All the skeptics asking why, how are the cola bottles the number one ranked candy?
You want to know what?
They're not going to dignify your doubt with a.
Now, they're gonna let their candy bracket championship rings do the talking.
The nature boy said it best.
To be the man, you gotta beat the man.
And the bottles are the treat to beat.
Can they go back to bank?
They had every reason not to win.
They were playing on back to back nights.
Do you believe in miracles?
Because the cola bottles do.
Can they go back to back?
Only time will tell.
They have the blue whales to contend with in round number one.
Wow.
Wow.
Is right.
Dude.
How'd you do it?
I don't know.
I don't know.
How did you do that?
I wrote this, I wrote, I wrote, I had the stuff written for a while.
So I went to put it together last night.
And then, um,
I saw the two back to back to back and that's just how we say it.
He's back.
And after I did the Rick Flair, I'm like, well, I should find a, when I say back to back, I'll put up an RJ still.
And just as I was searching for RJ Broadhead, a video clip comes up and he says back to back, eight seconds into the clip.
On boll bottles.
Everything's going their way.
It's just so good.
Back to back.
So we have it set.
We can throw it up there one more time.
The candy bracket is a presentation of our good friends at Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating.
We're going to have some fun with it.
We hope everybody can have some fun with it as well.
Are guys ever going to talk sports?
These guys ever going to talk about hockey?

There goes red.
Barefooting.
Look at it.
Oh.
That's good.
That is nice.
That is nice.
Damn boy.
Damn boy.
All right.
We got a lot to do here because it's a game day.
And it's the, we said it already.
It's the biggest.
game of the season.
Huge.
Massive.
Massive.
Village Honda, it's the $1 million

It's bank.

All right, boys, game day. Let's go as the Vancouver Canucks make their final visit to the
Scotia Bank Saddle Dome of the season. There's, uh, look it. Fair to be.
B, the buzzer be the buzzer be. The Bizz of buzzer B, be. Fairby. I like them.
Been very good of late since the Philly game, maybe getting home. It wasn't got to back games, Ryan.
Back to back.
Very good.
Let's go get it.
Should be a fun one.
Of course, the Canucks coming off a back to back.
And Nazam, Brock.
All right.
Let's go.
This will be fun.
7 o'clock mountain is your start time.
And the flames do have a little bit of news as they have done some things.
They summoned Adam Klopka from the miners, which makes some sense.
They were rolling with just 12 forwards.
I don't know if that means he goes.
in tonight. They've had an unusual combination of Lomburg,
Roondog, and Zeri on the fourth line.
And Pospasal has been lifted up to play with Frost and Lego Man.
So we'll see if that stays or if that changes with clap coming up. Other news,
Pike's got an interesting article, as he always does, as well as this tweet.
It's a bit of a pike bomb, but maybe it isn't because we know a Calgary regulation win.
We'd leave them three up on Vancouver.
If you want an overtime, you'd be two up on Vancouver.
If Vancouver prevails in extra time, you'd be tied,
but hold a tiebreaker with one fewer game played.
And if Vancouver regulation win,
would put them one point up with the flames with the Calgary Flames,
holding a game in hand.
There's a lot of outcomes for the biggest game of the year, 1.0.
I'm going to say it's not a pike bomb.
It's some research.
I feel like the bombs, the breaking news.
I don't know.
I'm with you.
That's kind of just stating the obvious.
That's R&D right there.
He's our research and development.
That's right.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Dustin Wolf's been excellent.
I mentioned his home numbers when Noodles was on 15, 6, and 2, a 928, all three shutouts and a 2.
0.2.
Those are dirty, chipper-esque numbers.
Here's his five-on-five numbers on your screen.
High-danger save percentage, best in the league.
goals against average, third.
Save percentage.
Third.
Goals save above expected.
Third.
Call me crazy, fellas.
That kind of looks like a guy that should be getting some Vesna votes.
Top three in three significant categories and even strength.
I mean, it's still 19 games, but nicely done.
I've got them in my bet three, six, five for the, uh, there's no.
So come on, let's go.
Let's go.
We talked about it.
Was it yesterday the day before we talked about it?
And then guys that are in the chat, hey, tell.
the brakes boomer. Hey, got it.
So I don't know. You can't win.
He can never win, that's for sure.
As for the opponent tonight, it is the Vancouver Canucks.
We showed you the standings multiple times.
We've talked about the outcomes.
The biggest thing for the Canucks is where's our best player at?
No, not J.T. Miller, but Quinn Hughes,
who, well, we don't know yet.
I imagine in the next half hour we'll get some sort of a comment
from the Canucks following the morning skate.
But at this point, I don't see any confirmation that he will or won't play.
at minimum it's probably safe to say he's a game time decision.
And I'm just guessing they wouldn't morning skate being that they would travel late
right game last night.
So damn.
We may not know.
We'll have to be looking for an Ian bomb.
A true IMAC game time decision bomb.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Canucks haven't been great.
They probably want Quinn Hughes back.
He is leading them in scoring this year, even though he's only played 16 of their 27 games.
Oh, that's an indictment on the rest of that crew.
Nobody at a half point per game out of the rest of that crew.
Are we taking the under tonight?
Is it two on the nose or?
I am all over like a clown's nose.
I'm all over it.
It's very on the nose and I'm hammering it.
What if she loves is in that though?
Well, the flames, if they could score four, I'd worry about the over.
Yeah.
Maybe it's one of those nights.
There haven't been many.
I'll stay tuned for the, uh, three, six, five.
That's the day.
It's going to be good.
Can't wait.
To you, Ryan.
Canucks the lines look like this.
Hey, Drew O'Connor, you fourth liner.
Welcome to Vancouver and why don't you jump up with Elias and Brock?
We thought that Brock would enjoy someone named Drew.
You know, like.
Okay.
We get the lines, Jack?
We have the lines somewhere.
One second.
Tell us about the second line, Ryan.
second line would be who we got.
Philip Heedle's actually been quite good since he arrived in trade.
I think he's close to a point per game since arriving in Vancouver.
This is just a hollowed out offense.
They've got Jonathan Lechore Mackey up from Abbotsford.
He played against the Wranglers last weekend.
Jake DeBrusc on the last side of that line.
The third and fourth line looked like third and fourth lines.
It's just there's some holes up top from the group that last year scored a ton of goals.
Debrusk leads them.
22 goals on the year.
He's, I guess,
has been good, right? That's what you sign for.
Yeah. Yeah.
Besser's been quiet.
He's gone eight or nine now with,
without much of a sniff.
See?
Does he get the Brock Lobster
treatment or no?
He might have wanted out of there at the trade deadline.
Let's see if it fits.
Let's try it on for size.
I don't know.
Oh, might it?
Nelson is better.
Ultimately we decide, right?
Right.
It sounded like the kings were close to getting them,
Rhett, and that the ask was a first plus for Brock Besser for two months.
That Patrick Alvin, he's crazy.
He's walking again.
He might be crazy.
Yeah, he might be because he's going to lose him for nothing.
It's crazy.
Yeah, we could have got a first, but we wanted a first plus,
and instead we're going to hold a hand and walk him out.
the door for nothing.
Was this the burkey?
I'm not going to be bullied.
Where you pretend that a first rounder is not as good as drawing a line in imaginary
sand?
Interesting.
Well,
if we take a first now,
next year,
they might say in a totally different market with different players,
we're not giving you more than a first.
Take the first.
I don't know if that was exactly.
I think that's...
Camelary.
Yes.
I don't think he was getting offers of firsts and said,
I think it was like he wasn't getting that.
Yeah.
I mean, what?
Was Brian Burke going to be the GM in here?
He was literally hiring a GM at that point.
Get out of here.
Okay.
We were ready for lines.
Yeah, they're there.
Thank you.
Good.
Deep pairs jump to that.
Come on, Jack.
Where's the lines?
Oh, no, he's good.
That's a different,
Elias Patterson.
God bless him.
That's probably what you call the Quinn Hughes hole
if he plays tonight right there.
Hieronic on the right side of the top pair.
Myers and a different Patterson.
It's very confusing.
There's a holy,
I'm rid of Pedersons they've collected.
And then sugar slash need more
Bort license plates in the gift shop.
Left side of the third pair with Victor Mancini.
He came over in the Miller deal.
Mancini.
Vic.
Chicken or stirred, Rhett?
You like olives in your Mancini?
Yeah.
Talk about this respect.
Putting Vic on the third pair.
As long as it's not the sour apple.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's fair.
It's all comes back to the candy brackets somehow.
Sure does.
Demko's hurt.
Julesen's injured.
We'll see about Hughes tonight.
Nils Amin is there 13th forward right now?
Whatever.
Quinn is the big one.
No one else is going to surprise us by jumping into the lineup.
And to your point, probably not skating today.
So we'll have to wait until warmies, what, half an hour before a puck drop.
Okay?
Let's keep moving.
Good Flames prospect news.
If you like Flames Prospects, it's a good time to be a flames,
prospect like her.
That'd be Gridden's having a really nice year.
Got Idaer Sunni of lighting it up at UMass.
And of course, Zane Perak said another standout year.
Over 100 points as a defenseman with Saginaw.
Pike's got a great article talking about who could arrive at the race.
That is more of a pike bomb.
I agree.
Do you want it?
Pike bomb, Pike bomb.
It's a pike bomb.
Go on, Rhett.
Pike bomb.
Big Mike bomb, Pike bomb, Pike bomb.
It's a pike bomb. Get ready for a big pike bomb.
That's an article he researched and wrote about.
That's not a Pike bomb. A Pike bomb is a tweet that's relevant right now.
Could start playing pro.
This is big news.
So maybe.
There actually was a pike bomb about a Flames prospect today.
Pike confirming that.
that Matt Vigridden, who was drafted out of the U.S.HL before going to the QMGJHL,
will be eligible playing in the American League next year.
Subject to the CHL 19-year-old role.
Very exciting, I know.
There is.
You want some old flame on old flame crime, right?
This is a good one.
And two guys, I actually, I would, yeah, I'll give you five bucks to watch this.
It's Bennett and Zedorov last night, Florida, Boston, rivals, and watch the
the front of the net here we got zaddy and benny.
Blocked away from salisket.
Here we go.
This is mind fighting.
He was just not very good at it usually.
He just took control there and eggs could never really get set.
It all starts with a slash and the ankle, too,
that I don't know that we saw at the beginning.
So size matters is kind of.
It looks like it can at times.
It hasn't really worked for a lot of his fights.
It did there.
I think if Benny gets a stick tied up, he'd like to start that again.
He just never gets set.
Listen, you are, you think Benny's a heavyweight.
I just don't.
Those are the kinds of fights that he can lose.
I agree.
He is not.
He's given up a lot of reach and size and weight there.
I would say that looked like a guy who was disinterested in fighting right there.
He didn't get his gloves off very quickly, I'll say.
No, his stick gets all tangled.
Ah, shit.
That's like the game's over.
We're not going to win this thing.
They were up to rip for a long time in that game.
Like, that was a very late.
Lots of rough stuff at the end, wasn't it?
Bruins got three and just over seven minutes to kind of pull the rug out.
Now, I showed you the fight two nights ago, yesterday's show,
where it was, what, Benoit and Toronto doing the Super Punch?
Yeah.
We've seen BX to do that in his career.
Well, this is an account that we love, the art, but sports,
the phenomenal work here.
Look at this.
This guy doesn't miss.
It's unbelievable.
He's doing some smiting.
Kane, smiting, Abel.
with God's expulsion of Cain from the Garden of Eden by Sebastiano and Marco Ricci 1716.
Is that a piece of art?
It's pretty good.
Guys, very good.
Very good.
Very good.
Keep moving.
Crosby doing Crosby things last night, getting a pair in a Penguins victory over Vegas, I believe, Jack.
Completely screwing the tank job now.
Yeah, Jari's back from the A, ruining this whole thing, making the thing.
the picks worse. Jack's beside himself.
Beat Minnesota and Vegas?
Gross. Now,
Crosby has scored
multiple goals in the same game
against 31 different franchises.
Obviously, he hasn't done against the penguins.
And they're saying Utah's not
a franchise, but he did it against Arizona.
Pretty damn good.
He's got 70 points.
Sorry, he's got 70 points in 65 games.
Remember that stat that we trotted out?
Yeah. If he can be over a point of game,
he'll have the most point per game or better seasons in NHL history.
I was trying to explain that to my kid yesterday.
He used to do a passion project at school.
And unbeknownst to me until yesterday,
he'd selected Sidney Crosby for his passion.
Very passionate.
Wow.
Love it.
He must have been paying attention to the Four Nations or something.
I'd explain the Triple Gold Club.
I'd explain what the world championships are.
I was trying to explain the point per game thing.
And in terms of multi-goal games, look where he ranks here.
Only the grade eight has more multi-goal games.
games active in the NHL.
105. Goodness.
Yeah.
Very good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, we still going.
Do you see Obey last night, by the way?
Empty Ned on the ice,
Rhett?
What does he do?
Very unselfish.
Look at that.
Every assist, Rhett.
Every assist, Dean.
That would be great if Protost does a little button hook.
Yes.
It sets him up for a one timer into the empty net.
Oh, he just absolutely claps.
Wouldn't it be great if Ovi's got the jets on right there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Look it, eh, that's a good teammate.
Boys on the apples, Patrick for Protis.
That's there, Alexi from Belarus.
Yeah.
I don't know that anyone gets those callbacks but me, but I like them.
The Russian, this is a surprising stat.
Artemi Panarin, 40 assists.
10 years in a row.
No one else has done that since it's playing today.
Crosby's not done it.
David's not done it.
Martyr.
Leon.
Really?
I mean, 10's a lot.
But that's incredible.
I would not have had Panarin on my bingo card there.
Selfish.
Today's player, hey, Rhett?
Jerks.
So selfish.
Hogging all the assists to himself.
Yeah.
John, they quick got a new deal?
Speaking of the Rangers.
the American happy is
jacked
he's like man I thought I was cooked three years ago
they're still paying me and I'm in Broadway
and it's just Sturkin I hardly
play I don't have to play if I don't
it's just great I see this
schedule to tell me the one game a month I'm going to play
the rest I'm just hanging out with the boys
I had Motsam ball soup last night after
it was so good
we walked to the ring
there's taxis everywhere the city's amazing
I love it
tonight's games let's get to them
not many but some good ones
what
not many but you're saying
there are some good ones there are good ones
there's one uh okay
walk us through this uh Ryan
okay well the bubble sabers they've won
one in a row by my count
and red wings are rolling after
a tough tough loss to the
senators despite 49 shots on
lina sole mark and a goal at the buzzer
that didn't count yeah
it's straight losses right for Detroit I think
winner of the Calgary Vancouver game.
Playoff spot is yours.
Go get it. That's a big one for seating in the second wildcard in the West.
Obviously, we've talked about it. The ducks are trying to stay relevant, as are the Utah's.
And Montreal continues their Western roads.
They played Calgary. Tough lost one. Nothing beat Vancouver.
And now, geez, three and four for them. That's a lot of Montreal.
Six, one and one in their last eight.
They're coming.
They're two points back of the wild card.
And they got Shane Wright and the Cracken.
Remember, it was the Habs hosting the draft.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
It was the Slaff Dog, Slavkovsky.
Two and a helper last night, three point night for Slavs.
Could we have the Habs and senators taking the two wild cards?
We could.
Be so good.
You have to fall out of there, but that's all right.
Come on.
Now, stay with me here.
If that happens, all but one Canadian team probably makes the play.
playoffs.
That would be quite impressive.
I'm forgetting anyone, am I?
Don't think so, Ryan.
Maybe Minnesota steps on a banana peel,
Vancouver and Calgary. You have all the
Canadian teams in?
I don't think that's going to happen, Ryan.
I don't know. Let's keep moving.
All right. Yeah.
Let's just jump right to the football
because Jack hasn't been able
to sleep for two nights because he just needs
to know who is quarterback is.
The thing is, there's a bit of a game of musical
chairs are at in the NFL because there's only so many
guys that are actually good at quarterback and there's only so many jobs where you can start.
Could you say there's some guys that think they're good but aren't and are pretending to be good?
Okay.
Yeah.
We saw Danny Dime sign yesterday in Indy.
There's, so who's left and what are we doing here?
Because if it's not Aaron Rogers, is there anyone left that actually can throw the football?
Can Russell Wilson still throw the football?
Wilson, Rogers.
Or do we have?
the ultimate plot twist and Jack's most hated human.
Anoying James Winston.
Oh.
For the Jackometer, we can't lose here.
It's either sussie for Russi again.
It's the circus of Aaron Rogers or it's the guy he can't stand quarterbacking his team
and James Winston with the cheese and the pregame speeches and the,
oh, are the cameras on?
Why don't I regale you with the tale of grandeur?
I'd quit.
I wouldn't watch.
Oh, you would.
He'd throw five touchdowns in week one and you'd be on the, like,
famous James boys.
I was telling you all summer.
Five.
Five downs.
He's not dull.
No,
he's not dull.
And the,
the Steelers offense has been dull.
And they just had a decay.
They already have pickings.
I mean,
James is a sweet boy.
He went to the world.
He was paid by box to go and do goofy stuff,
which he did.
So,
how long before Metcalf is pissed
for signing in Pittsburgh?
I need to know which quarterback.
He's already past.
Yeah. Might be already.
It's like, so it's Rogers
or the,
why am I here?
Trade me.
You just got traded.
The ink hasn't dried on your contract.
What do you mean, trade me?
Okay.
This is from a great listener of the show
who wants to remain anonymous.
We go to
Boisivant, Manitoba.
It's not close.
No.
Ah, damn it.
Can you give us one?
Boisevan.
It's Boisevan.
That sounds close.
Well, it's not, you know.
Boas event.
If I gave it to Jack, you'd say, boy seven.
But Jack's an idiot.
Right.
So who's the friend of the show?
So why are we getting the back?
Like, we were talking about the huge things in small,
this is the giant turtle.
We don't have a place is.
No.
frontal shots of the the turtles it's not it's going to get us taken down from youtube i heard it's
quite a show so we only get the shell oh no full frontals job is jack's policy if you've got more
small town monuments please do send them into the pender report yes please but we need them it's
very important also if you have any bear videos we do like those there is uh it all kind of
not totally nearby but uh to boys but there is in glasasasas
Lenborough, Manitoba, Sarah the camel.
A camel in Manitoba.
It's true.
Yeah, back in the day, Ryan.
How many humps?
All right.
For me, not a lot lately.
Okay.
No, Sarah, I was asking, but we'll leave her alone.
Let's get to, well, yeah, if you said,
if you have any Russian bear videos, you can send those in, too.
This is great stuff.
The red.
Did you ride a bear in India?
I did.
Is that you and Joey Juno?
Look at you so happy.
He's waving.
Look at the time of his life.
Just out with the boys.
Hey.
We're going to go for beers.
See you there.
How good is this?
That's you, Rhett, in India.
That is a guard dog right there.
That's the equivalent of the dog hanging his head out the car window.
Yes, except the dog is like 2,000 pounds.
Look how he is.
They've got him so drugged.
Now, we go to a live TV report from local news where they've done a human interest story, a feel-good story on a pig that got hurt and they had to replace its back legs.
But it's safe to say he couldn't.
This is quite a setup.
Now to the story of a pig that is inspiring others.
One pot belly pig.
I certainly entered his share of problems.
Crispy Bacon was born without the use of his cycle.
My game.
You have to read this story.
Chrisby bacon.
We cannot.
Oh, my God.
It's Jack in four years.
You have to end on that clip, Ryan.
You can be like, Krispy Bacon has to be the end.
I got something better.
because it's it's even fits you better.
You've got so many more clips here.
Three more.
That's it.
We really hyped up this Aussie cricket.
You get it?
He's not going to live up to it.
His first name was Chris.
His last name was Bacon,
but his middle initial was P.
Middle initial.
Like for person,
we don't know.
Chris.
Dean.
P.
Bacon.
That's your Pinned report.
On a Wednesday.
There you go.
We're missing this clip again.
Yeah.
Push this.
it's tomorrow.
Village Honda.
They're your dealership for life,
part of the Wood Automotive Group.
You go to the lot.
Maybe you don't see exactly
what you're looking for.
Talk to the sales staff.
They'll take you inside,
get you a cup of coffee,
and they'll take a look through the database.
Look at all the vehicles inside our dealership group.
It's why we are your dealership for life.
There you go.
I know it's Wednesday,
and it may not feel like the end of the week,
but it kind of is.
One day work week.
Yes.
Safeways, my NHL picks.
The weekly chance for you to win big prizes,
like a trip for four to the 2025 NHL season opener of your choice.
You get the Safeway app every Thursday.
A new game starts.
The game, if you will, I'm using air quotes,
runs for a week.
So you've got Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
full week of games to pick five.
Five.
That's it.
Correct.
You predict the winners of five matchups.
Each correct pick gets you an entry into the grand prize draw.
You can earn scene points.
You can get bonus entries.
You'll get grocery offers.
But you need to download the Safeway app and start playing today for your chance to win.
So today's Wednesday, we're wrapping up the current game.
I had a good week, boys.
Did you?
Let's take a look at this. Lightning beat the sabers. Golden Knights beat the Penguins.
This was obviously Friday, not last night's game.
Panthers over the sabers, cabs beat the cracking and Stinking Vegas.
Dropped one to L.A.
One goal, though. Tight one.
One goaler. So that's four wins. I add to my total. I'm up to 10 on the year.
Keep track of it right here on my little lap. I'm unlocking scene plus offers and seen.
You know what I'm seeing? Because last week, you went with the Jets to do some winning.
that kind of didn't work. Here you've gone with the sabers to do some losing.
That's been more tried tested and true.
Very good. Yeah, very good. I did not have the Oilers beating them though. That would
have been the pitfall. Four for five, we'll take it. We'll move along.
Rub it into the shoveler if I got more than there. There you go. So again, get that
Safeway up. Look for the my NHL picks contest.
Got a whole week. The whole slate of games opens up every Thursday. So congratulations.
Grats in your week there, Ryan.
Thanks, buddy.
We're going to go, Ryan.
Oh, boy, Ryan.
I go redeem my offer.
Steal with it.
Chance to win the grand prize of a trip for four to the 2025 NHL season opener of your choice.
Are they going overseas next year?
Is there any?
Yeah, it'd be rude not to.
Yeah.
You're always doing that, aren't they?
They're going back to Australia.
We can check in with Ozzy Brad.
Yeah.
Meldit, mate.
I just had a cyclone down there.
Very scary stuff.
A what?
It's a
hurricane that twists the other way.
My goodness.
I haven't heard that word used in a long time.
Oh, yeah.
It's a southern hemisphere hurricane.
They just spin the other way.
Just like the toilet goes the other way.
Was that a,
was it the Cincinnati cyclones?
Cyclones, yeah.
So does I mean, are the toilets going?
Which way are they going in Cincinnati?
Not sure.
Good question.
Thanks.
Google it, I guess.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Anyway, I'm sure the beaches will be back to normal by the
time we're down there when I win that contest.
I can't wait to go.
I'm excited for it.
I've never been.
Yeah, we know.
Road trip.
Fighting kangaroos and the snakes and the spiders.
You are putting on the brave face of being keen to go to Australia.
I feel like if I've got someone like Ozzy Brad to point you in the right direction,
like we're not going walking in tall grass with bare feet.
We're not hiking.
Well, Trigger will be there to help
Trigger's going to be there.
Stay out of the brush, mate? Stay out of the brush.
Yes, like I suspect the beer fridge is going to be full.
Oh, yeah, a man cave.
We're not, this is not some big wilderness.
You're not doing a walkabout?
No, we're not doing a walkabout.
Not doing it.

That sounds great.
It's a lot of money.
It really is a lot of money.
And I'll tell you what,
I've really kind of keyed into how many of these service credit unions there are now
since we've been talking about it.
Everywhere.
They're everywhere.
It's great.
It's pretty handy then, if you're a member, huh?
I don't want all these darn services.
service charges for taking money out at the ATM.
I'm a service credit.
Oh, well, there's one.
Well, that's great.
When's the last time you took cash out of an ATM unrelated?
I do it about once a month.
Yeah?
Just a list of purchases and things you need cash these days.
Yeah, that's true.
Don't want to be tracked down for anything.
There are, I'm trying to think what it is.
I think there's a couple cash only places that I still go to for food that are old school as hell.
Like, no, you know what it is?
there's a bagel place that I love.
Montreal's club bagels,
cash only.
So that's my monthly go to the cash for you.
So a money laundering operation.
With the best bagels in town.
I mean,
you wouldn't believe how delicious they are.
And I'm like, yes, sir,
you go wash this money and you don't give any of it to the government
and keep making these great bagels.
God bless you.
We'll see you next weekend.
The bagel business is thriving.
People really do love bagels.
Let's do our bet three.
Bets of the day. Breaking news coming in from Bet365, where every nail biting overtime win is a barn burner.
Every face off, hat trick, power play, shot on goal, penalty shot, and every suspenseful minute in between is amazing.
Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at Bet 365.
Official partner of the NHL download the Bet 365 app today and use the Code Nation to get in the game.
Must be 19 or older. Please play responsibly.
All right. Let's do it, boys.
was the under two on the nose?
How about under a half goal,
a.k.a. don't say it, but we're saying it.
Game total, five and a half. I'm taking the under. The Vancouver team total
under a half goal. Don't say it, but we're saying it.
Are you saying it? Not saying it.
Feels like you're saying it. I'm saying under 0.5.
All right.
They want to score 0.4 goals.
Go get it.
It's a big game hunter there for sure.
Yeah.
I do like the team total.
It's a reasonable outcome.
Both these teams have struggled mightily to score goals.
Any on the, uh, anytime goal scores you like, Rhett?
The Farby line's been hot.
No, no, you gotta go someone that's an unsung type of hero.
I, Joel Joe Hanley.
That's the, there's an unsung hero for you.
He's a free age.
You've got to lock them up, hey, Red?
That would be really unsung.
What about the Rune dog?
Could the Rune dog...
This is some big game hunting, all right?
Yes.
Big game hunting.
See, I feel like I just want to check here.
I love the answer.
Man, it's...
I'll worry about what Noodles said.
When you think it's a low-scoring game,
then you're going to get a 7-5.
I mean, you can play the over if you want.
I don't disagree with them.
Just when you think you have a feel,
sometimes you're totally wrong.
But...
remember McKenzie Weger was on that he had a seven game assist streak yeah plus 128 for an
assist I like that plus 625 for two assists if you're getting greedy that's the fun of it
other goal scores 180 for Nazim cadre Hubert O plus 240 Lego man plus 240 Coleman plus 280 zary
plus 280 coronado plus 280 coronado plus 280 is a big number i'm gonna have to jump on that
i'm taking a wolf shut out is the jinx in there's stupid everywhere ryan i had too much
stupid Brett's done he's done with stupid more stupid are you going to be able to avoid stupid stupid
stupid stupid stupid and don't be stupid stupid bus is full today maybe i'm the stupid one
some people are really fucking stupid what were you thinking
I wasn't really thinking.
Ryan did the thing where he said, I'm not,
did you see what his bet was?
Multiple times.
Canucks under 0.5 team.
Ah.
Two S words.
One of them is stupid.
That's right.
I parlayed it with the saves.
That makes any difference.
To more on the show.
I guess we'll recapting tonight's
looking forward to.
We should make.
Jack have to put in superchats if he's going to contribute.
Right?
Then we could read it and make sure it's relevant.
It can be used.
Yeah, Jack, you're going to have to pay to talk on the show now.
Because it's weird.
Because, I mean, in some ways, you're kind of,
it's kind of, you're funny dumb.
You know, you can't spell and your English is not great.
But you're, you're not street smart dumb.
you're not common sense normal like just man okay well um yeah that's it super chats
nope see tomorrow yeah i guess so sorry sorry please get us right see you buddies
