Starting point is 00:00:00 Ah, here we go. It's a Friday. Friday is Hawaiian shirt day. So, you know, if you want to, go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt and jeans. It's beautiful, kind of. This is, yeah. It's tropical vibes, right? That counts us Hawaiian. We're stretching a little.
Starting point is 00:00:16 Last week we had the Blue Jays chapicature. I really like it. It's baseball season, guys. Yeah, thank you. Appreciate the sport. Yeah. When's that start? Not yet.
Starting point is 00:00:26 I know that. It definitely hasn't happened yet because there has. hasn't been an extremely crushing Blue Jays loss yet where they use like five relievers and lose by 10. Hasn't happen yet. Probably today, I guess. In game shape. Got to get into game shape. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Welcome to the show. It's a presentation of Bet365. The biggest and best gaming platform in the world. Bigestestest. Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at Bet365. and Youth Centers of Calgary will benefit from your generosity
Starting point is 00:01:07 inside the YouTube chat. You put a little money down, you have a comment, we'll show it on the show, and then we'll move the money over to the good folks at youth centers of Calgary. We are here together, once again.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Feels good, right, to be back together again? What do I mean? Ryan wasn't here for two days. I don't think so. The last couple, he was... Today's not Monday? This is a good Monday. I thought for sure he was.
Starting point is 00:01:34 His voice lingers. Is that what it is? Remember being annoyed and something obnoxious in there? Jack, what the hell are you doing? Arguing for no reason. Yeah, that's right. I mean, for the sake of arguing. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:44 That's the fun. It's good for the show. I have just a little, uh, it is nice to be back together. Yeah, it is nice, isn't it? Yeah. The band. Yesterday, Brett and I tried to keep the mood up.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Half full. I'm not going to tell you about how great palace it is. I think we trotted out some facts. That's that maybe would suggest that Dallas is really good in Calgary was waiting. Some facts and figures. I'm not sure what there is today for us to be rosy about, you know. Speaking of Rosie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:36 One row four seats to the right of me last night. Stinking Rosie and his kid. What a beauty. Tough night. Jerusalem. Is it not? Off night. And, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:57 I think it was our fault? No, I'm just, I guess what I'm saying is. Should we have bragged it up more and then we wouldn't have been as disappointed? I think we could, what I'm saying, what I mean is we could come on today and try and, you know, do the whole, hey, no, don't worry. Yeah, three games in hand. Oh, no. People don't expect that, Dean. No.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Here? No. Not today. tune in for Dean. Dean. Shit. Did they play poorly the Flames? No.
Starting point is 00:03:31 It might have been their best game of the year. They were great. They were great. Final results. Matter. Yeah. The results matter. The process was good.
Starting point is 00:03:44 I love process. Process. So good. How many points do they get in the process column last night, Jack? Zero. Oh, shit. shit what are you talking about they got lots of process sure isn't it i don't like you know what that was a very dark start with that music it's going to be hard to pull out of now dean
Starting point is 00:04:14 that'll help more of it oh did i play this one already okay let's see if i have some there's still 11 games left. No, that's not good. This guy here is dead. Oh. Ew. It's really an ew, but Hello.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Yeah, that's a hello. You know what it is? It's the realization that peak pain is on the horizon. They were so good. They had shots and chances and Woo! What was the score 5? Two. It was three to two for a while, Dean. It should have been 3-1 the other way for a while, too, which, you know.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Yeah, those refs screwing us. Yeah, bastards. Pricks. A bunch of pricks. All right. Are they flipping coins? What are they doing? Opening statements for McLeod law. We need Peter Klein on the case.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Yeah, we do. Get them, Peter. Oh, me. Called Gary. That's a lot of money that's going to leave in our city. Because right. Refs. Gary, you're in for some litigating. Stinking zebras.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah, you got some litigation on your hands. McLeod Law, whether it's referees or maybe it's a neighbor or maybe you just need some legal assistance. Co-worker. Yeah, co-worker, or whatever it is. If you need to, if you need some legal assistance, some legal help, why go anywhere else? But McLeodlaw, it's Calgary. They're Calgarians. They're here.
Starting point is 00:05:46 They're here for you. McLeod-dashlaw.com. They are the best. part of an event we're doing tomorrow as well. They give back. It's great folks. Great folks. Five two, the final.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Stars beat the flames. Four game win streak snapped. Snarped. Codry continues to score at an incredible rate, Harry. God, he's been good job, Harry. I mean, back to back, two goal games. The seven over his last five, is that the check out? Yeah, that does check.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Yeah. Yeah, he's helping with the peak pain. He had two goals. the flames had two non-goals. Yeah. God, I don't know what the hell they're doing on these things. For the second night in a row for Dallas,
Starting point is 00:06:33 Miko Rantanen sends a player to the locker room with injury. I didn't realize how dirty he was. Dirty, dirty, dirty bastard. Yeah, there's lots to get upset about actually last night. Yeah, there's a ton. Then you start kind of.
Starting point is 00:06:49 St. Louis was really not doing much of anything in Nashville. And then Dylan Holloway decided, he's got nuclear may as well win it 26 goals now 26 I think he's got more than McDavid I mean McDaniel lost it's just wonderful yeah last night but I mean anytime you can get Vic Arvinson when he's on the 16th T-box go get it oh the sabres bought on this guy he must be awesome yeah um well where do we want to start I guess as we break this down the final is five to two the flames do not gain any ground. In fact, with the St. Louis
Starting point is 00:07:29 victory that ended up happening, they fall further back. Let's start with generalities. In general, the flames played very well, correct? They had a nice showing, lots of shot attempts and shots. And scoring chances,
Starting point is 00:07:42 not just this BS on the outside. So, in general, nice performance. That was a process night. The coach would have, and listening to his post game, he was happy with everything that happened. Yeah, there was a couple of miscues,
Starting point is 00:07:55 but they did enough to win that game nine times out of ten. For the second time in like a month, really played Dallas hard and well. Yes. Yeah, that's right, because that was the last of the six game road trip. They should have been gassed. They were. They worked their tails off. Not intimidated by the Dallas stars.
Starting point is 00:08:12 They've got one point out of four and should have four in the efforts that they've put in against us. That's right. The last two, yeah. But now we can go into the details. That's where it ends. Yeah, the details are 5-2 stars. Pospesal was better. Like Posposol was running around, making it, you know?
Starting point is 00:08:35 Good. How many near bleeping goals did not go in? Like, who is the defense owner of the stick that's going in? So another one hit the top of the net. Oh, it's three or four backdoor tap-ins that somehow just got missed or a stick or a whiff. The one was frost. The shot goes off of kind of the arm, shoulder area of DeSmith. and then is fluttering into the net.
Starting point is 00:08:57 But Harley decides, I'm going to get just enough of it to put it off the post and out. Coronado goalpost. Then whiffs on the one-timer, and Dallas comes down and scores on one of their only chances in about 30 minutes. Totally against the runoff. You know what?
Starting point is 00:09:16 I was going to say, it's the NHL Wolf. Stay awake. you just you felt for you feel for him because that in terms of if you just didn't show the scorebug and watch showed all the highlights like shit that team and if you nerd and those nerd stats theme you'd have a lot of nerd love you got a big nerd win last night's your expected goals were through the roof nerd win for the flames the problem is they didn't get too poor no they didn't and they've done the opposite to teams they've they've done the role open up the other way where they get totally outplayed, Wolf stands on his head. Like they beat Montreal 1-0 on Hockey Night and Canada. It's scored one goal and won. But it just,
Starting point is 00:09:58 it stings when it's, okay, this is last dozen games of the year. St. Louis is roaring and it's a really good team you've outplayed. That doesn't happen a lot this year. They've hung with some good teams, but to be as one-sided in the chances department as that was last night,
Starting point is 00:10:12 that's really rare. That one stings a lot because those would have been two very hard-earned points. and the fucking ruffs did playoffs don't talk about playoffs you kidding me playoffs I just hope we can win a game yeah
Starting point is 00:10:32 was that fairby in front on the goaltender interference thank you dark did he not brush his teeth was a bad breath what was it that got him um did he fart went into the blue yeah on his own accord and may have even brushed the goalie
Starting point is 00:10:47 but we're not sure the stick is I mean the stick is in there it's a great play there by back then he makes the turnover off the kind of only thinks it's in a weak rim yeah the goal is not thinking it's goalie interference that's the other we're talking with kead last night on on after birder if the goalie kicks up a stink it's like well I guess we'll maybe go upstairs but dismiss like oh okay that's good so so we're now at the point where there's zero like incidental contact like I get if it gets bold over sure but geez is that minor it doesn't really is It doesn't impede his push in any way. He's there to make the save. And then Farby says the referees after this tell him, well, blocker side, it was going to be one thing. And if it was a glove side, it was going to be a different call. And you're like, oh, my God, they're just making the shit up as they go.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Oh, it matters what side of the net it is. Like, he's clearly, if it was going to stand on a different side of the net, he could not have been that impeded. Is it a bad look for the league? Yes, it's horrible. Do they care? Same with the kicking one. Like I don't we've seen so many ones that are guys like that's kicking motion.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Oh no, it was off a shin. You're not kicking with a shin and like crazy stuff like that. And why don't you just make it black and white and get rid of all the shitty interpretation that you're not good at? Because we never know. So that's the kicking motion. Is it? Like is it? Because he's definitely like trying to deflect it in.
Starting point is 00:12:10 But that's allowed. That's not a swing of the foot. He's placed it there to deflect it. Yeah. Looks like his blade is on the ice. And so what the league needs are clear rules, which are exactly like that. If your skate is on the ice, totally fair game. Because you don't want guys swinging their feet.
Starting point is 00:12:26 You don't want guys lifting the blades. Sure, of course. So if your skates on the ice, do whatever the fuck you want. That's an easy rule. Then we're not into this interpretation of, oh, what's a kicking motion? Is he stopping? Is he kicking? He's totally deflecting.
Starting point is 00:12:40 But that's not a kicking motion. He's literally placed it there to deflect it in. You want goals? Let them just serious. Is it in? It's a goal. you can't throw it in and then you watch the Blake Coleman one
Starting point is 00:12:52 from two years ago in the playoffs that might have been the worst call I've ever seen on the kick like it's just it's a disaster you know what it does is on a day like today it feels like sour grapes probably for people that would be from some other cities that's just because you lost you're sour yeah we are I'm not saying it should have stood
Starting point is 00:13:09 I'm saying the leagion of rules that makes sense and we know what they're going to call you may as well flip a coin at this point it shouldn't be hard to figure we should know when we look at it my kids were outraged last night And I said that I've been screwed over by refs my whole life. Way harder saying that, yeah. You want to talk about real bad. And the kids are like, oh, God.
Starting point is 00:13:25 We're going to again. Oh, man, who asked him about Dallas. The year was 1999. Yappy Mouthy. You can use that song now. You know what? And it was the same damn team. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:38 The Dallas Stars. Cheat, they're cheaters. That goddamn Brett Hall. Stinking Bell McCrary, that Zee. brides, skating out. I knew we were screwed. Skating the crease.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Skating the crease. No sons of bitches. That's actually the perfect anecdote because that, you know, they change these fucking rules all the time. The one they counted against you guys in 99, it was completely against everything they called that. Full garbage. Total garbage. In the most important game, the league literally flip-flop.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Ryan, right. Not doing it again. Just let it go. Yeah, let it go. It's not the time. What about the, are we breaking down? the game more? No, we got to go and talk to a guy.
Starting point is 00:14:21 This is depressing. And we haven't even talked about there's a lot to still get into. Let's get to the insider hotline. It's a presentation of Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating, your crystal clear choice for all residential plumbing, heating, and cooling services. If you watch, listen to Barnburner, then hey, listen
Starting point is 00:14:37 up. A thousand bucks could be coming your way in terms of discounts or upgrades if you need a new hot water heater, AC, or furnace. Crystal Clearcalgary.com. is the website as this guy will cheer us up. TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dregor. He's a cross on the insider hotline.
Starting point is 00:14:55 Morale is down. The vibe here in Calgary, Dregs. Tough one. Yeah, I caught part of it. So I'm guessing that we have concerns with the officiating review, all of that. Well, we were saying that Rhett's kids said, the refs screwed us.
Starting point is 00:15:15 and Rhett said, let me tell you something. Grab a chair. Hop on old dad's knee if you want to hear about getting screwed by the phone the crease. I was there. The HHS tepper tape right over there. The one that says 99. I was in the building.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I saw it firsthand. I was there for that. I mean, look, if we're referring to the kicked in goal last night, that wasn't or the goal of interference, all of that. I mean, for me, it goes hand in hand. It's the intensified time.
Starting point is 00:15:45 So the players, you know, they're running full octane. Likewise for the coaches. At least, you know, that's the acknowledgement that I get from hockey operations of the National Hockey League and from the head of officiating on an annual basis. And this year is known different. The only thing I will submit. And so I have no problem with hearing from the flames dressing room and their concerns. That's being honest.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I mean, you feel like you got cheated. You feel that way, right? heat of the moment, that's how you see it. And then Brandon Gallagher last night, post game in Montreal, after that loss to the Flyers, I mean, he went off like a rocket. I don't know if you guys heard that sound, but I, you know, he called him incompetent. You know, he went hard and talked. I think he was talking about the situation room in stating that they don't know the game.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Well, okay, that's where it's not my job to defend, but I can push back on that a little bit. Because, you know, you've got Colin Campbell, who is the head of that department. You can argue maybe he shouldn't be anymore, right? I mean, make the full-scale changes, get fresh thinkers, eyes, everything in there. But he was a long-time player, coach, was in management, now has been in the office of hockey operations at the NHL level forever. Chris King, former player, has been in hockey ops for a long, long time. Kay Whitmore, former goalie in hockey ops for a long, long time. time. Broad pass, I mean, go down the list here, right? And all of these men have been involved
Starting point is 00:17:19 since the adopting of the video review process. So they were the guys that this whole process was kind of built around to oversee. And then let's fast forward to last week, right? And you've got the general managers in a room. Craig Conroy was there. Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadians, they were there. They looked at those 54 goal of interference plays. And, agreed in a majority fashion with 52 of the 54. So the takeaway was now the room is calling it the way that it should be called. And if the call on the ice is no goal or good goal, make sure you've got the irrefutable evidence to overturn that call on the ice,
Starting point is 00:18:04 to overturn the judgment of the on-ice crew. And, you know, all managers were basically in lockstep. So now you come to this week. where's the disconnect here? Is that messaging not moving down from the manager to the coach and then to the players? Like I, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:22 the moments are so high, right? Yeah, time of year. It wouldn't move down either to answer your question. Conroy wouldn't come down and tell the guys they're doing a good job of calling from the playroom. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:35 But, you know, I think it was Gallagher who referenced the Palmary disallowed goal. on Merzleekins, right? The Anders and the Blue Jackets last week. And I mean, everybody looks at that and goes, well, how is that not a goal?
Starting point is 00:18:52 But again, and I don't want to sound like I'm defending the league in this. I just, I went through that whole process with them last week, and it opened my eyes a little bit. That doesn't mean that that whole process shouldn't be scrutinized moving forward. I mean, the obvious step for me would be to, you know, bring all coaches into that room and go through that same process. So every coach can look at the 50 toughest goalie interference calls that they've gone to this year.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Do it in the off season so these guys aren't worrying about stuff they shouldn't have to worry about. But then get their viewpoint on it. And then, you know, send every clip you have to send. Like those issues that we saw last night involving the flames and then involving Montreal Canadians, why wouldn't you isolate those clips with a full on? explanation and either send them out with a full video. They do explain briefly.
Starting point is 00:19:46 And I think Eric Francis actually quoted Rod Pasman, right, from the situation room. Send that to every goalie. And I don't care if those goalies get a hundred of them a year. Okay, here's a two-minute video explanation of why this was called goalie interference in this game, you know, between the Islanders and the Blue Jackets. And maybe the goalie then can look at it and go, okay, I, I, I don't necessarily agree with it, but at least I understand it. And I think that's where the breakdown happens across the league,
Starting point is 00:20:16 from player to coach, from coach player to management to the head office of the national hockey league. Did you see the comments from Fairby last night? Because you had mentioned the, go to the room, I don't know if that was just the gallery reference of the flames reference from last night. Well, what do you know? He just said if the, the ref told me if it was love side, it would have been a goal, but it was locked inside, so it's not a goal.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Yeah, I, I, I, I, didn't quite understand that. Yeah. Sounds like. Now. Now maybe he's what, I just heard something, but it's just,
Starting point is 00:20:47 yeah, it feels like there's so much interpretation. You know, we can move on. It's kind of, it's, this is an age old thing.
Starting point is 00:20:54 It is age old. Especially this time of years, you said, Boomer. Every, every year we go through. It's just what makes it more absurd is that they,
Starting point is 00:21:03 the league just went through it in an exhaustive fashion with their general managers. And yet, here we are going through what happened at that meeting kind of like when we talk about this the GMs just come
Starting point is 00:21:17 yeah well they all in favor aye do we go for lunch is that yes good on Tuesday Tuesday on TSN we're having this argument Jeff when you know what they were watching in that meeting those meetings cartoons that's that's what they weren't watching cartoons
Starting point is 00:21:37 they weren't watching cartoons you had a on your ex this morning regarding Connor Zeri, who it was second time this year. He has gone down with a knee injury or a leg injury. It's the same leg. And he has been writhing in pain. It's been hard to watch. The first one ended up being maybe not as catastrophic as maybe we thought at first.
Starting point is 00:21:59 And maybe the same here. What are you hearing? Well, and I had to couch and qualify it a little bit because, again, it's pending further testing and imaging, right? So, you know, they've got to get a full structural look, a picture of is their damage and if so, how much? So the initial assessment, my understanding is that they felt like both the MCL and the ACL were still intact. So that would have been the initial assessment. To me, that sounds like good news when you see how that play unfolded.
Starting point is 00:22:32 And then, yeah, to your point, you see Connor's area writhing in pain and clutching that knee, you know, the same knee that he injured. in January. So we'll see where it goes after they go through the full medical process. But initially, they were encouraged that maybe it isn't going to be as bad as it looked. Either way, it feels like that's a season ender, being that there's 11 games left. Maybe. The whole thing, it was you had the injury. You had an incredible effort, 106 or seven shot attempts on net.
Starting point is 00:23:06 You had goalposts and all of this. And then you come back to it. they still lost to the stars. And it was the same week or a month ago. They went into Dallas on the road trip. Last game, we had it as one of those, Garrett,
Starting point is 00:23:19 you know, scheduled loss and they played very well. And they did lose. They got a point out of it. Elite teams, the stars got two goals in a minute 16. And then with all the pressure on their goalie, one chance comes down the ice.
Starting point is 00:23:32 And a world, all world player puts it in the roof, Miko Ranton. Yeah. It's why it's, that's where you want to, And I get that DeBoer is pissed off because the same thing happened at Eminson where they had a lead and then they pissed it away. But elite teams find a way.
Starting point is 00:23:49 That's what I'm proud to. It's hard, but it's frustrating sometimes. Yeah. But I think I see Dallas as being that. I see Dallas being an elite level team. And I don't think any of us would be surprised if they found a way to march to the conference final, maybe to the Stanley Cup final. But that, you know, it's going to be a tough path when you look at what's coming out of the West potentially or going into the playoffs. anyway with the likes of, you know, Vegas who are top notch, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:15 the Oilers seem to be kind of kicking themselves in the shins. And now they too are going through some injury issues. What is Colorado going to be with all the fresh faces that they have there and the changes that they made in Colorado and go down the list, the Winnipeg Jets? You know, I'm still vividly reminded by a conversation we had with Scott Arniel in the first half of the year where they went on that toward pace. right out of the gate and, you know, talked about,
Starting point is 00:24:43 was the team not much better than they were in the playoffs? And he said, no, but what's fueling us was, is a level of embarrassment. We were embarrassed in the first round of the Stanley can playoffs. And so that's a, that's a deep-rooted motivator. And Winnipeg seems to be continuing to feed off that. So Dallas is in that group, but it does feel from the crease out that Dallas now,
Starting point is 00:25:06 especially with Miko Ranton, and even the ads of Granlin and Cody Cici, when they brought those two guys in in sneaky fashion from the San Jose Sharks. Hey, it's a well-built team from top to bottom and well-coached on top of that. Do you have a timeline on when Hayeskin is going to return? There is now some whispering, you know, it's a bit of round one. And they got Colorado. I don't know how they don't face each other round one, given that Winfix flying
Starting point is 00:25:28 and Minnesota's slid closer to wildcard two than, you know, third in that division. That would be a huge blow for them to have to face Colorado without them. Yeah, and it's possible to be. fair. You know, I haven't checked this week. I'll be honest with you, but the measurement was that Toder Sagan would probably be first and then Mero Hayskinin would come in right after that. But is it, you know, a few days? Is it a week? Is it two, three games of a playoff series? I don't know, but, you know, when Hayskin comes back, then they're basically up to full compliment, be a huge boost.
Starting point is 00:26:07 I brought it up the other day and it's just when you're you know what it's like you're going through notes and it's probably should have known this we do a show every day but it just kind of struck me as we get ready for what looks to be a Kings Oilers first round and it may be the Kings at home
Starting point is 00:26:21 the Kings have three regulation home losses all year 26, three and four good heavens. Crazy. Yeah it's a wild one and also large. Yeah. Yeah. It's also part of why, okay, I live in the greater Toronto area. So anytime the Toronto Maple Leafs lose a game that they just can't lose, shouldn't lose,
Starting point is 00:26:46 as they did last night and losing the San Jose charts again, you know, it just turns this market upside down. And that was the case this morning on morning radio, but less to do with a game that you shouldn't lose, obviously the worst team in the league in San Jose, but more about what you've got coming right around the corner. And next stop for Toronto is L.A. and, you know, L.A. at home, as you guys have just, you know, amplified is just lights out good. But that, too, is a good team.
Starting point is 00:27:15 I kind of glossed over the teams in the West, but how do you look beyond the Los Angeles Kings and the possibilities there? Yeah, there may be not quite as deep as some of the better teams, but it looks like they're well positioned and well built. And given how stingy they can be defensively and how well they protect their own sheet, I mean, L.A. is going to be a tough out. And you're right. I think it looks like they play the Oilers, right? And, you know, Craig Button, who I got to love him. He's never afraid to just, you know, throw it out there.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Trade deadline day just announced because he put up all the brackets. Okay, here's what round one looks like today. Edmonton's playing L.A. Sorry, Oilers fans. The Oilers are going to lose in the first round of the playoffs. Just bang, like that. But it's plausible. right it is so but to me that that is more to do with um the la kings from positive perspective than it
Starting point is 00:28:13 does you know the oilers stumbling and bumbling in a series like that like i can only imagine what it must be like out there and it's those disrespect when we talk about in the east east how many of the sharks kings get like who's the coach of the la kings like i got to google this stuff the kings had three regulation loss that's unbelievable um got a bunch at home left too like seven left at home part of the flames woes right now and i know we talked about it last week and we wondered about you know offer sheets and that but st louis yeah they've kind of done this before where we we're not really all that good and then we go on an incredible run yeah and then look at us go it's what 15 two and two or whatever it is they want eight straight another come from behind win
Starting point is 00:28:58 last night which also hurts the flames yeah all the way is on an unreal tear and broberg continues the other night. Fowler's been playing great. They added him. Earlier in the year, he had a big, he's done an incredible run with, and Pareko's not been there right now. No. I mean, you talk about teams getting hot at the right time. And if, if you're Winnipeg or Vegas, play St. Louis in round one, stinks. Not exactly what you play all season to finish first for. They could go the other way, obviously. But damn, that's a hot team if they can keep this going for another 10, 11 games and head into the playoffs like this. Yeah. I mean, that's fair. And,
Starting point is 00:29:36 you know, you look at Cairo and Thomas and the middle of the pack guys who they absolutely needed this year to find a way to step up. And it's been a while. Like that has been a development ladder that's been tough to climb for those two guys. But it looks like they're well on their way. And I think we've talked about this before. I, you know, I just admire the way that Doug Armstrong goes about doing his business. You know, not just because how well the offer sheet scenarios have played out.
Starting point is 00:30:04 but, you know, he clearly looked at at Holloway and looked at Broberg and thought, okay, well, those are two guys in their 20s. We're going to fit nicely in our age demographic here as we try and transition on the fly. So maybe I'm going to have to pay Broberg a bit more than I want, but I think there's more there than what we saw in Edmonton. And he's 100% right, okay?
Starting point is 00:30:27 So then you get Port Gru Manister, who by all accounts is a pretty good coach. I mean, decent coach, the American League level earned his stripes to get the NHL bench. Jamie Montgomery gets plugged by the Boston Bruins and Army's like, that guy's better. So I'm going to get him. And just dispatches Drew Bannister.
Starting point is 00:30:49 And Montgomery is a hell of a coach and he deserves the credit. But then you go further down the path. And I think it was in January when Army didn't like the way that this team was trending. And basically went into the room and said, okay, we're going to make some changes here. Some of you guys aren't going to like it. And some of you have trade protection. Don't care.
Starting point is 00:31:09 I'm going to find a way. I'm going to find a way. So the message was that if you guys want to go through a renovation, then you're going to force me into that position. I don't think we need to do that. I think that we can improve, add some pieces here, but we do have the core of a team, a nucleus of a team that needs to be and should be much better.
Starting point is 00:31:31 And it took off. And that's also why, guys, now to bring you into my world a little bit, like all the stuff around Braden Chin was 100% accurate about him being in play. Now, you get into that game of semantics. Was Armstrong shopping him or was he just listening? Well, he was listening. You know, he's this captain. Yeah, and a real good piece of that organization.
Starting point is 00:31:52 But if somebody would have stepped up with an offer that he had to consider, of course he would have. But I also think that he's devious enough to like the idea. of Braden and everybody in that room being uncomfortable with the possibility that the captain of the Blues could get traded on March 7. He was fine with that as a manager because it just squeezed a little bit more juice out of certain guys. You know what else too is we're really smart.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Hey, Draggs. Like we sit here, we do a show every day. We know. And we'll sit, Camp Fowler, I don't know what thought are. Are they old? Are they young?
Starting point is 00:32:26 What are they? Kind of question. I was just thinking of as you were talking there. He got out from under the brand. and sod contract. Try to train and put him on waivers. Terminate the contract, sure. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:38 So he saved the money off the cap. He's not even eating dough there. They're way better off without sod. It's gone his way as of late for sure. Yeah. Sorry, Ryan. Did you have something there? I mean, look,
Starting point is 00:32:49 the blues are the hottest team in the league. They look unreal right now. And I think one of these things are these deep playoff races. You got, what, four or five, six teams in the east, three or four in the west. Whoever gets in a lot one. Like, there's never any easy matchups. So that's why this tournament's so great.
Starting point is 00:33:03 We literally saw the greatest regular season team ever. Yeah. And eight seed in round one two years ago. Yeah. And look, I mean, every year at the GM meetings in March, Bettman has asked about playoff expansion and changing the playoff scenario, right? Changing the matchups so that you can avoid some of what we're going to see in the first round. And to his credit, he always says the same thing.
Starting point is 00:33:26 I don't know why we keep asking the same question. But he's like, what, you know, if you look at the regular season, and how it's going to finish. It's playoff hockey and has been since, what, February? That's the way it's been. So what is wrong with that? And then, yeah, it's unfortunate that good teams are going to get dispatched in round one. But last time I checked, to hoist us down the cup,
Starting point is 00:33:52 you've got to beat the best teams, whether that's in round one or it's in round four. So I don't think that hockey fans are suffering when a team like the Edmonton Ointers gets bumped by the Los Angeles Kings in a seven game series. Okay, well, sorry, but if that is what comes to fruition,
Starting point is 00:34:10 that just means that the Oiters weren't better. They weren't good enough, even though they're loaded with stars. So, I mean, I think it's going to be a fascinating finish in the regular season. And then, yeah, the way it looks right now, that first-round matchup, on both sides of the conference.
Starting point is 00:34:27 You think Toronto, wants to go after Tampa Bay again in round one or even Florida. I mean, the advantage here is that Toronto doesn't have to play Boston again. That's the only advantage. But they piss away a point versus San Jose. So it doesn't appear like they're overly motivated to win their division. But again, that's all part of the intrigue and the drama that builds going into the postseason. Give us a little more on torts being relieved of his dues.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Yeah. I've talked about it a bunch the last couple of days. but there's been sort of a new layer to that today where it sounded like he and Cam York got into an incredibly heated dispute to the point where I think the team's going to discipline York but couldn't their last game because you're not allowed to play short-handed
Starting point is 00:35:10 by a certain number. Well, they had to address him and he sat on the bench and never played a shift. Yeah. So can you imagine that? Like, uh, Rob Ray moves. He did that.
Starting point is 00:35:21 It's so old school. Like, like 17 games without a shift. Really? Oh, that many? So, yeah, I mean, what I was told, and I saw Kevin Kerr from the athletic, you know, was very specific. It said that there was some sort of verbal altercation between Cam York and John Torterall. So automatically, I'm like, well, I better dig a little deeper.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Like, no one put hands on anyone here, Tim. And of course, not. That didn't happen. But what I was told was that, and I think Kerr's used this same line, and I was told the same thing, so maybe we have the same source, that lines were crossed here. And, you know, it wasn't just the comments from Torterall on Tuesday after the loss to the leaves.
Starting point is 00:36:13 But, I mean, he basically said, I'm not a coach to coach this type of team in this type of scenario at this point of the season. It was a public acknowledgement that I, I think I'm going to get fired. And then you go into Wednesday. And I think that that's where the exchange between York and Tortorolla happened. And all I was told was that management had no choice at that point.
Starting point is 00:36:38 They had to step in and they had to say, Torts, you're done. Because as of trade deadline, they still felt like they were going to get to the offseason. And then they were going to have a conversation with John Tordrella about what he wanted to do. because you remember when Breyer and Jones came on board, Torts, all that. And, you know, they acknowledge that Torts had a chair at the management table, which is a bit weird. You know, lots of coaches in the NHL have heavy influence. But the thinking was that when he was done coaching,
Starting point is 00:37:10 maybe he would morph into management in some capacity. Well, that's not happening now. He's been kicked to the curb in a big way. So it got pretty salty on Wednesday in Philadelphia, no doubt about that. So where are you add on him? He's got one year left at $4 million. We often see that coaches take that year, take the money, get some vitamin D as Brett would recommend,
Starting point is 00:37:29 and then return to, is he still a guy that you would put in that top class of coaches? Is it like, ah, this is one too many? Like when Bob Hartley left here, you knew that was it. And next thing you know, it's the K and it's Latvia. But then the other side, I saw someone online saying, this is the perfect guy for the Rangers right now.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Yeah, yeah. Well, like veterans. Yeah, I could. see that. Chris Kreider's like, Jesus. Yeah. It's like, look, I'll make it miserable, but we'll play well. Like the problem towards, this was a young team. It never worked for me. Yeah. Like, is he, to that point, is he still a guy
Starting point is 00:38:01 that maybe a team, we weren't thinking of, we were maybe going to go into next year with this coach and see how it starts, but maybe we'll make a change this offseason and bring in towards. Yeah. Well, I mean, for me, the New York Rangers are the only team that right now makes sense. And the reason I feel like
Starting point is 00:38:17 that is no disrespect to Peter Labelette. It's because I know James James Dolan, the owner of the New York Rangers loves John Torrella. And that owner has a ton of clout. So, you know, let's see what happens. If they miss the playoffs in New York, all bets are off. I mean, I don't, maybe Chris Durie has some sort of vote of confidence that he's coming back as general manager, but I can't be sure of that. I don't know that to be certain.
Starting point is 00:38:43 What I do know is that, again, you've got a very hands-on, volatile owner who is not going to sit back and go, now okay yeah status quo that works you know i'm comfortable with the way things are um and and you know he does like john toterola so that would be a scenario that does make some sense and given the fact that the team is still largely a veteran based team it might make sense from torts perspective as well beyond that though you know i thought that when when things went completely off the rail so quickly in vancouver with tortura he was done there i i thought that he was going to mold and wear that one for ever. And lo and behold, it didn't take that long. Bang, he's back in the league and he's carried on every sense. The true thing that I admire about the man, though, is he just goes
Starting point is 00:39:32 down swinging every single time. And it's my way or the highway. And I think he has evolved and changed over time in terms of how the game is changed and how you can't play that same style anymore. But in terms of his attitude and his approach with players and all of that, He knows that he's got a shelf life as a coach, and I don't think he loses a second to sleepover. Well, you were talking to Sarich the other day about the dress code, and you talked about evolving and changing. Oh, yeah, he was real strict about all that.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Torz was, you look sharp, you come to the rink, all dialed up. I swear to sweater be on the bench. Yeah, yeah, the little truck suit and sweater behind the bench. Things have changed. Can I ask you, I've asked noodles this on Wednesday, and I think I asked you last, well, it wasn't last. last week, however long ago, about Chicago and Chicago being a destination.
Starting point is 00:40:26 And now Bader's everyone's riled up and he's not going to resign, what the hell is going on? This feels like a huge disaster, just waiting to, like. Yeah, it feels that. It does. And look, we had a real quick conversation with Kyle Davidson, the general manager, last week in Florida. And in fairness, it was more, not to get too personal. with him, but he's talked about it openly, publicly, about a congenital heart issue that he has that he just recently had to get, you know, checked on and there was a procedure.
Starting point is 00:41:02 So he's got a lot going on in his life, let alone trying to manage everything that's all over the place with the Chicago Blackhawks. So don't take this as inside information, but there is a sense around those who are reasonably close to the Chicago Blackhawks that there's got to be some form of change coming. And what does that mean? I really feel like Kyle Davidson needed a veteran voice, right? Like he absolutely needed that. When he was named general manager, they should have named, you know, a president of hockey operations first.
Starting point is 00:41:39 And then let that guy person go down that path and then decide if Kyle Davidson's the right candidate, perfect. That's fine. the two-headed monster, in my opinion, works, right? You know, Craig Connery is surrounded by experience management types, right? I wouldn't think there'd be too many days where he doesn't lean on Maloney or Dave known us and, you know, he's got Brad Pascal. I mean, different voices. Like, and Davidson has some of that.
Starting point is 00:42:07 But that's such a hockey, a hockey rich market that to think that Kyle Davidson is going to be able to put all the pieces back, to get this team to a place where we're not now questioning the future of Connor Bedard with the Blackhawks at that age. It feels like help is required. Experienced veteran help. Kenny Holland's name has always been drifting out there, right? Like just how we know he wants to get back into the league. I know that there are teams that have approached him recently about an advisory role, something like that. Maybe he'd be a real good fit there in some capacity.
Starting point is 00:42:45 but that's kind of some of the change that I see. He could be bigger than that. Maybe it's less in Chicago, but there's got to be something coming in the off season. Another high pick coming in this off season. Yeah, some good players. Chicago and San Jose, that's shape or good.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Honestly, I look at them, man. They're going to be really good. I don't think it's that far away. Yeah, no, San Jose. I agree. And I know Greer's taking some heat, like especially on the CC deal because it helped Evanton get out of a jam and no one wanted to see that.
Starting point is 00:43:12 But you look at what he took for getting Jake Wallman a second, turns it around, adds a first from Edmund. Yeah. All of a sudden is a really nice stable young players, a bunch of picks still, and he's going to have another top three pick. And I already like the young guys they have. DeFoehlia is a good signing. Yeah, but it's like Boomer said earlier, you know,
Starting point is 00:43:31 L.A. is in a way different place than the San Jose Sharks. But most hockey fans, unless you're a diehard, aren't paying close attention to what Mike Greer and the San Jose Sharks are doing outside of the obvious. Like, Maclin Celebrini is going to be a. superstar in the National Hockey League. We can kind of see that already. I think Greer's a sharp
Starting point is 00:43:51 general manager. I do. He just goes about his business. He's got a real good ownership support there. But, you know, there's a ton of work that needs to be done, obviously. But I'm with you guys. I don't think San Jose's that far away anymore. I don't. I was going to call up
Starting point is 00:44:07 Rhett, we have a meat market here in town that we're big fans of Bondon. It's Greg Keller's great. And Rhett puts in, can we call, I mean, we've got the, the order, the list of what it was. And then you went and it was literally kind of a hand crate or a hand cart on wheels that you needed to. Not a basket, drags. Get this all sucked out there. You were going to get.
Starting point is 00:44:37 So, I mean, it's how many chickens it's, do you have it there? Oh, the list. I sent this to Jack. Because I was going to say, do you go to a, it's like I need. So many pounds of ground beef and chicken and turkey because you're going to fill the freezer. You're a meat connoisseur, as we know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've got a guy.
Starting point is 00:44:53 I got a guy. About an hour away who has grass-fed beef. And I'm not, I'm not, you know, into the organic stuff. Like, I mean, how can it be 100% organic? Who knows what these creatures are eating? Anyway, I do, I'm looking at the order here, Rutt's order. very, very, very similar. Very similar.
Starting point is 00:45:16 So, yes. I mean, maybe not as significant. This is a big order. This is a very, very big order. But I'm just... I'm, soak it all in. But you have three young boys. You know, you got three teenage boys.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Yeah. Yeah. We do have a listening audience, Dean. Yeah. Right. So it's, yeah, we're 22 pound packs of ground beef and then 10 ground pork turkey, 25 double packs of skinless chicken breast, 25 New York scripts, 25 filets, a dozen baseball rib eyes, four beef ribs, two prime rib roasts, size to feet eight.
Starting point is 00:45:51 I like it. And you're, how happy were they to see you? I understand maybe you're maybe going to be able to help fund them. I'll leave you guys with this because I know we're up against it, but you wouldn't do it with the prime rib roast, but Rhett, you're going to love this. I just bought this meat slicer. Oh, I have one.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Do you? Oh. Oh. So I just put a roast in the smoker this week. Oh. And just thin, razor thin slice roast beef. Oh, boys. Stack it up.
Starting point is 00:46:27 I got a slicer, too, Drake. If we ever get you out here, I know Greg's going to want to, he'd want to put on a show with some meat for you. So I figured you'd appreciate that. That's fantastic. Take care of your. off, bud. Good to talk to you as always. All right, guys, have a great week.
Starting point is 00:46:44 You bet. Darren Dregor, TSN Hockey Insider, our insider here on the Crystal Waters, plumbing and feeding. Come on. Slice it thin. It's just, oh, it's the same with cheese. The thinner you slice of the better taste. It was Kramer, right? When he was slicing the meat there in Jerry's kitchen.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Did he got to get some good muscle inside? You know, I was going to say it's good when you find your pocket, your people, right? It takes a little while. But there you go. Your meat buddies. You and tricks. Meat buddies, absolutely. Crystal Waters, pumping and heating.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Crystal Clear Calgary.com is the website. Good old drags. I want to tell you about, we've talked about summer hockey. It doesn't feel like summer right now, but it is coming. Hopefully. Hockey North America, Calgary's best run adult recreational hockey league since 1988, summer hockey team sign up is open now.

Starting point is 00:48:22 In what, a tournament or the league? The league. Well, define win. A game or the league. Boy, that's a lot of GM work in the summer. They both love to play. Are you asking us to play? They're both players. Jack, are you ready to play? You're still sick. This guy's outside of Prittis. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:40 I'm in, yeah. What's, what? It's going to be Jack's Lugan buddies. That's what it's going to be. I don't care who it is. You think you know hockey?
Starting point is 00:48:49 Put together a squad, go into a league, play. No, I'm guessing there's different, um, bunch of big models. Well, that there's different levels.
Starting point is 00:48:56 It's like, I don't care what level. You just get whatever division they're in. They need to win or they have to pay you back. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I don't know what we're trying to prove.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I worry about your schedule. That's my thing. Summer's busy. I'm not planning for. I'm happy to hang the skates up. You're going to come watch. Jack is not busy. You've got all kinds of.
Starting point is 00:49:21 I need coach. I need to work on my coaching so I can get behind a bench. All right. I'm in. Let's talk about it. There's your QR code. QR right there. Get that QR code.
Starting point is 00:49:31 HNA, sorry, hNA.com hockey North America is, let's put that on. Proven a point because he's there a big talker. Shit. There is a bit of talk. How's their championship cooler from the Bondock tournament?
Starting point is 00:49:45 It's great. The tournament you didn't come to. Really, really good. It's full of meat. I did put in a photo. I mean, it's a little close to it. So you guys will be able to pick it up.
Starting point is 00:49:55 But if you were to show this to somebody, maybe you went to had some soft ice cream, maybe a Sunday, you know, when you're finished, you get right into the bottom and you scoop all of it out here. I got sent this photo yesterday. And I was thinking, if you showed this to probably 10,
Starting point is 00:50:11 people, eight or nine out of the 10 would say, oh, is that a peanut buster parfe? You know, is that some, like a fudge Sunday with nuts? What do you got in there? I know what that is. You do know what that is. Ryan, what are we looking at right there? There's only one potato salads we're talking about. It's a bontan potato salad.
Starting point is 00:50:28 And that is a man that's filled a cup with potato salad and eaten it with a spoon. I almost ate both of the containers of potato salad by myself. How do you feel? Greg was asking, so did Rhett bring in, did he share some of the potato salad? It was spectacularly good yesterday. Do you see what I'm seeing, Jack? You almost could. Yeah, it looks like ice cream or something.
Starting point is 00:50:49 Oh, that's maybe a nice little, was there chocolate at the bottom, some fudge? No, we know how about it than that. No, that's an entire, and it's not a cup, to be fair. So that's a liter. That's a ton of the leaders. Yeah, that's one of the, that's a one liter deal. How long did it last?
Starting point is 00:51:06 The first one, like that one there. You crash through it, then you. then I graze. It's the walk by have a bite. Have a couple spoonfuls, put it back in. Here's the real question. Guaranteed he had this out in his rig when he's driving home. Was he done the first leader before he turned off Crowchild?
Starting point is 00:51:25 Or did he take the ring road home? Did he take the right room? You got to leave a spoon in the console, right? Come on. I feel like the spoon wouldn't hold you back necessarily. If it's a plastic spoon, he'd break it. He needs a metal one. You could take a couple of digits in there.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Take care of yourself. Yeah, you probably pull that off. Trying the soup today. Good for you. Soup day, yeah, it is a soup day. And a clean soup. So you and your family can eat it too. It's clean, like healthy.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Healthy. Really? Yeah. I've been working with, because we didn't know about the soup, do about the bone broth. Greg and I have kind of been planning because we want to, we really feel like,
Starting point is 00:52:09 and we talked about it here about baloney. the forgotten sandwich meat and Greg is in and I know we're in and he said you know we could do a soup and sandwich day with the fried baloney however we do it plus have some soups I was thinking I've been researching different mustard there's some local companies that make
Starting point is 00:52:30 their own kind of well you know what'll end up happening then we're going to end up with a restaurant are we Brett's done this before he's owned restaurants yeah bars We're going to, I mean, are you kidding me? We're going to have us out there talking about it, eating it.
Starting point is 00:52:46 It will be delicious. Then people are going to hear about it. And they're like, will show up and try it. And they're like, why don't we? Why don't you guys open up a, then we'll have a food truck. God, I'm going to be busy. I don't like this idea. You can't coach hockey this summer.
Starting point is 00:52:59 Sorry, Jack. You've got your baloney truck. That was mortadella. Oh, so good. No, you know what? That's a good question. I feel like it's in the, it might be a very high-end Italian. Bologna.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Remember that sandwich I made you having Penticton? That had Mordidale on it. Delicious. Does Greg have? Oh, yeah. I almost got some. Yes. That's what I was asking. I almost said.

Starting point is 00:53:44 And then some don't and they, then they, how can I help you? And I say, well, I got to take order back. They're kind of like, what? You know that pallet you thought was for loading the freezer? He goes, yes, it's. Do you own a catering company? Oh, you got a wedding this weekend, huh?
Starting point is 00:54:06 You're really treating everyone. It must be a big wedding. That's a lot of, that's a lot of meat. 150 people? Bontan meat market from prime rib to bologna it's everything you want it's everything you want and anything in between that's right don't ask about the potato salad just have it just have it did red share any of the potato salad share almost did a spit take Greg you know better i think he does just you know wind up oh yeah a little bit sam bennett stuff yeah uh we will get to uh

So a prime rib roast that would feed eight. Is that bigger than a loaf of bread? Yeah, it's, yeah, it's significant. Service big share contest. Anyone can enter.

I, I spent a lot of money on tickets, trying to get in there.
Starting point is 00:55:55 I thought I had that 50, 50, 50 locked down. It was a strategy. It was foolproof. If I buy this many. Right. Yeah, that works. How much did you spend on all of that? Here, you're actually just saving money.
Starting point is 00:56:08 It's, it's really quite a. So I can't serve a credit union. Smart. Tiver of the Pinder report. It's a presentation. So what's the mood and tenor of this? Because there's still some things about the flames, quite honestly, we haven't talked to.
Starting point is 00:56:23 There's lots of flame stuff there. We have lots of flames prospects coming up. The Calgary Hitman open up tonight. And then a smattering of dumb stuff at the end. And our friend down under is checked in. Nice. Nice. A little jealous.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Because I was, I figured there's no way to bring it up without being like a you know, I told you so, or you or pointing fingers or whatever, but where are you on your buddy, Miramanoff? Like, are we I don't know why he's starting? I don't know why he started. Paul hurt? Because it's been what, four or five in a row? Like, again, well, he was back in a game ago. Was he not in the,
Starting point is 00:56:58 Paul hasn't played since I don't think the Toronto game. Which is crazy to me. Like Miramanov has just been a staple. And I, he hasn't, to be fair, really had a run of, third pair of minutes because Bahaul's been good all year. So I just don't know if Bahaul's hurt or not. But yeah, like he's a six, seven at best. That's what we've learned this year.
Starting point is 00:57:19 He and Bean, we showed the Bean highlight the other. He just will put in his own net. Like he shot it off of his own post. Bean makes double and Bean's the first rounder and Bean got two years, not one. I mean, Miramado, you're going to see what it was. It was a kick of the tires on a toolsy guy.
Starting point is 00:57:36 I think they're both sevens on a good team. because I just, it's, and Hanley's been the opposite. This guy rotted for two months. He played in the Islander game. Yeah, he played 1742 against the Islanders. Pahal? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:51 So that was the one and that was, okay. So he played in Toronto, then missed a couple, then he was in against the Islanders. So he's played one of the last five. Weird, hey?
Starting point is 00:58:01 He's been the, I'm with you, Dean. A movable force. I'm not back in Miro here. I'm not saying he's playing well. I'm wondering why Pahal's not in. We've all loved Pahal. Hall most of the year.
Starting point is 00:58:12 Could I just cut to the chase? Yes. The hell difference doesn't make. Oh. Those three games that we had in hand that we're going to re-prong in here. I still got three games, yeah, but it doesn't leap frog into shit. No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:58:33 You're already in the shit. Now you've just got to be Colorado in Colorado in the first half of a back-to-back. Terns right now. Damn it. Zari's out. We don't score. Zari's out. We don't score.
Starting point is 00:58:44 That doesn't help. Yeah. things at all. Like, Jack, do you have that goal? Because coaches have completely lost their marbles. They don't know what they're doing anymore. Paul's in. I mean, Maramano's in, Paul's in the stands. Miramano, what?
Starting point is 00:58:59 Do you need a headbutt? Do you have to start having our headbutts again? Maybe that lucky ties on a little too tight. He's not wearing that one again. Take it to the cleaner. That one's going, that's cooked. Oh, baby. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:13 The other thing on, like, again, I'd love to see the goal again, but why freaking Johnson? Well, first Miramatov doesn't get it out at the point. Yeah. It's got to be out. And then he gets absolutely walked, turnstiled. And Bean's like, holy shit, this guy's good, watching him putting his own rebound in the friggin' room. Wolf makes an unreal save to stop the first one.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Real save. Well, you guys aren't making it any better. And I don't know what Rooney's doing on the Granlin goal. Some guys are coming at you on Twitter saying, hey, these are all Connie boys. Well, I signed all these guys. So they're coming at you? It's not exact. Yeah, it's my fault that Trillivings signed Rooney. So right here, got to be a harder play there.
Starting point is 00:59:58 And it's just, what are we doing? That's how they teach the kids to play D now. Is that right? I thought Mirro was older than that. Oh, look at that. Swipe there. Is he casting? Is that a fishing rod?
Starting point is 01:00:10 That feels like you. What was that game that we were, I was, we talked about. the D were, it was against Philly, I think, and the flames. And they were really, really soft, like, don't hit anyone. Yeah, it was the four. It's a contact sport, but we don't. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:26 Yes. Look, like we said it all year. There's three guys on this blue line that don't crack. Like, for the stars blue line when they're healthy. It's insane that they're in the spot with Joel bleeping hand. Well, we looked at it yesterday morning because Anderson didn't take part. in the morning skate. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:46 So it was like, Hanley and your man off being, Jesus, H. Christ. Yeah. How, how? How? And then the people in Montreal, like, oh, I can't believe
Starting point is 01:00:57 Lane Hudson's not going to win. Just because the flames have a good D car. Like, what are you looking at? Joel bleeping Hanley, waiver claim, top pair. That is, do you think they should sign ball?
Starting point is 01:01:08 I think they should sign ball. I don't know that there's anyone suggesting you shouldn't, yeah. Just start. an actual NHL defensemen, yeah. You know what? You guys have roamed it again. We have dregs on
Starting point is 01:01:22 and we get to talking about meats and deli slices. Things are good. We show some potato salad. We're cruising. We had our down moment. Now we're building out of it. And now cablamo right back into shitter. You know what I've got that's going to make you happy?
Starting point is 01:01:37 I didn't know how I was ever really going to incorporate this in. But I found something. It just kind of was like, this is, you know what this is going to do? this is going to make Rhett very happy someday and it feels like maybe we could use a bit of a you're damn right we could Dean all right you're ready for it well pender doesn't know what the hell's going no idea some fat sweat hog from the audience is in the ring there you go I found a better
Starting point is 01:02:01 quality some fat sweat hog yeah to go dean yeah thanks I you never ceased to amaze things that you'll work at can I how long did you work on that rob ray clip because you had to tie you that one The swearing one? Yeah. Oh, fuck. That one was quick. Yeah. That one was quick.
Starting point is 01:02:21 But the problem was the other one. That's from the audience. Way 80s. Like 86, I think, is what it's from. Some fat sweat hog from the audience is in the ring. Yeah. And it was actually. Every time.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Jack, it was actually Adrian Adonis. Yeah. Who was sitting in the front row in a dress and a wig. Why. Who was coming in to interfere in the match. It, in fact, wasn't a fat sweat hog. Some fat sweat hog from the audience is in the ring. Oh, Jesse the body.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Beautiful. Jesse the body. All right. It's time for the Pinda report, a presentation of Village Honda. The $1 million buying is, it's here. Do it.
Starting point is 01:03:01 I can't help but wonder. Today's the 28th of March, if maybe. Clock's ticking on this. Yeah. Do you think they're just going to have money sitting around to buy your used vehicle? I'll get to it in July or August. I wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:03:15 I wouldn't. let Village Honda appraise your vehicle, complementary appraisals. You can begin at all. The process starts online at villagehonda.com. We'll present the PINDA report. All right, let's go over to Flames Nation, see what's going on after the Flames hosted to Dallas Stars last night
Starting point is 01:03:32 to cap a brief two-game homestand. Our boy Flash has really summed this one up nicely. Cogry Flames put together one of their most solid team efforts all season, lose. Boo! Damn it. Yeah. Is that a pooch with Flash there?
Starting point is 01:03:50 It's a good looking pooch. Yeah, looks like my dog. My stupid kids. Dad, can we get a dog? Do you know, it's, it's our dog's birthday today. Really? Yeah. Good for him.
Starting point is 01:04:05 We got to go for pup cups and stuff later. The dog with two names, his birthday. Yep. He's such a good boy. Louis Buster Douglas. Weirdly how your kids still want a dog after you ripped their hearts out by giving their dog away? I hated that dog. We had to get rid of it.
Starting point is 01:04:20 It's not true. Jeez. Yeah, it's a cruel game, all right. Old Bobby Germany was weighing in on that as well. The screenshot says it all, folks. Shots 48 to 20. Dallas 5. Godry 2.
Starting point is 01:04:35 That's a, wolf sucked. Oh, man. How many backdoor tapins did they have guys? That's the thing. 106 shot attempts. Filpipis. How many do you need? to get more than two goals. And yes, you had to disallowed, but goodness gracious.
Starting point is 01:04:54 Yeah, like what do it? So we need 200. Do you need 200 to get four or five? 200 shots? That's a lot of shooting in a 60 minute match. If the rest are screwing us, we need 200 shots. We need to average three shot attempts per minute. You want another one? Against their backup. Uh, yeah, the backup looked pretty damn good. You've tried out, you trotted out his numbers. And no Miro hasten it no mirror and his second back no okay just check the real bad news wasn't that they lost it's that they likely lost connor zerry for a long time our boy dregs we just had on tweeted this this morning at 837 further testing and imaging required to determine the extent of the injury however the initial assessment offered some encouragement regarding connor zary's knee
Starting point is 01:05:43 tough scene last night following an awkward collision he's fine he's effing gumby this guy well I mean there's degrees of fine is he done for six months or is it just a few weeks it was good it was the it was the same knee and it's not intentional I mean we have the vid here
Starting point is 01:06:00 it's just ranting and loses an edge blows out his legs as he's cutting in there and zary with the skate blade gets stuck in the ice and he just rolls back but it's like to watch any of else have you say get up what pardon me
Starting point is 01:06:15 when you're watching this really get up oh no I was not. I was like, he's hurt badly. I was. You know what I was saying? God, damn it. You're a hockey player. From Western Canada. That's not what you were saying. That's exactly. You can text my kids and ask.
Starting point is 01:06:29 Oh, yeah, you're a black heart. Gave away your dog. It's not. Just get up. What do you do? It can lay there? It's not going to help. Just ruined his knee probably. So I don't know. It's hard to get up on one life. Is it going to not be ruined? If you're going to lay there longer? I don't know. It's 11 games left. It's not the tact.
Starting point is 01:06:47 expecting from red well i'm i'm not saying that it's not an injury is he insulting don cherry by being hurt on the ice and not getting off in less than 10 seconds get off get looked at it get fixed let the trainer tell you whether you get up or not trainers are idiots drunk all night
Starting point is 01:07:06 this is where you say ryan back to you back to you right thanks red let's take a look at the western conference wildcard is it just me or is it is now Minnesota the theater the blues have won eight in a row eight in a row God they're good
Starting point is 01:07:28 stupid summer of Jeff my ass that's hurting the flames as much as it's hurting the Oilers that's bad still the game in handle of the Canucks which doesn't really matter I mean yeah the ninth place bowl peak sadness I guess you really would
Starting point is 01:07:43 want to finish although no maybe peak that sadness would be 11th from the book sadness is coming. We are lining up exquisitely. Yeah. You want that combo of giving away a high pick to Montreal and missing the playoffs? There's a little window here. You're going to thread that.
Starting point is 01:08:02 You've got it. It's going to happen. Oh, 100. Yeah. It's 95% chance of happening. Right? Like, it is a high, high likelihood. It's not.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Very hard to fall into the bottom 10. Who's catching you? No one in the position. That's the Pacific division. I bring this up because they play the Oilers. My back up on Saturday. Oilers have had a real rough go. They got absolutely shellacked by the cracking last night.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Could be six back of the Oilers. We could catch the Oilers. Feels more likely to catch the blows at this point. It really does. And they're without dry sidel and there without McDavid and there without Trent Frederick who hasn't played yet. You know what? That's our goal.
Starting point is 01:08:44 Let's reset our goals, Dean. Do you ever reset your goals? You sit down. Get the Oilers. Fix your goals, your dream board. Claw back. The Oilers. Surely to fuck we can deal with this.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Right. Eight back. Game in hand. Four pointer on Saturday. Six back. We play them with a game in hand. Four back. And then McDavid and dry.
Starting point is 01:09:09 No, no. We're going to win the game in hand. So that's 81. So now we're six back. Now we play them. Yeah. Yeah, we're four back. Just basically four back.
Starting point is 01:09:16 You're a blue. you just just what what word verbal die word salads here you're this is what see this is what it is now you're you're you're talking you're taking crazy pills this is like when it's uh one a m and you're you're like i should probably go home now the reasons you come up yeah this is continue to stay until the lights come on but this brilliant no no no this guy's granny karaoke i need to hear a couple this brilliant conversation yeah this is definitely drunk up too late kind of talk i should buy a brewery I feel great. I'm not going to be hungover at all tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:09:50 If I get three hours, I'll be fine. I think shots are a great idea. That's 180 minutes. We're totally catching the oilers. Foxe-Lewis is the Oilers now. Yeah. And then my car's going to sign with ease up. You're going to bring point back.
Starting point is 01:10:08 Shively's got easy. You got it. They're going to come in the ring. Right? Yes. Close. Yeah. We're treading into that.
Starting point is 01:10:17 territory yes oh jessy cody the enthusiasm we'll be wanting to do a show after the it's true drinks tomorrow night in the battle he's a calgary guy yeah i don't know
Starting point is 01:10:33 he likes a cow car here schedule we showed you it's it's not a lot left in march there's one back to back left it is a monday tuesday you won't see it there the monday games at colorado is a tough stretch dallas contender outplay him and lose Edmonton contender missing their two superstars.
Starting point is 01:10:51 Colorado, wagon, playing really well. And then Utah on a Tuesday night, the day after, second after they've never played well in Utah. I believe you're correct. They got doors blown off in the fall there. Yeah, they've never played well. And if you look at April fellas, it's odd numbers only every other day. First, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, 11th, 13th, 15, 17th, game over.
Starting point is 01:11:14 So you like that set it and forget it rhythm? they got it there. Two Anaheims, two Vegases, two San Jose's, and a stinking Kings game that's been moved from the fires in the fall to the last day of this season. That was 95 look. 95.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Might catch Minnesota or Evanston. It's not catching the blues. No, we went through it yesterday. Because Redd it thrown out the 95. And I said, rather than try and find the points, just look at the. dead. Yeah. And think in terms of wins and loss is then take whatever points you draw from that and put it against
Starting point is 01:11:54 it's like, okay, well, win, lost, that point, that's up, what, 91. No, shit. Um, that's not 95. So we're gonna need some more. We have to rejig this. But in fairness, I don't think we, I think we had last night as a loss. We did. So we're right on track for the 91. Yeah. To miss it? Which doesn't help. Got it.
Starting point is 01:12:14 Let's look at the east. So we can still we can still hit our. 91. Yeah. Are you still going to hit that peak sadness, hey? Yeah. Case closed. Eastern Conference. Got some great races last night.
Starting point is 01:12:25 Leaf scored two with an empty net in the final minute and then lost in a shootout to the sharks last night. If you haven't seen the highlights, Celebrini and Will Smith in the shootout. We have the highlights. We also have the, uh, was it Eklund? William, is that his name? We have the William Ecclin goal. I don't know if you saw that one.
Starting point is 01:12:41 His brother's going to go in the top 10 this year. It's, uh, high skill. That's the thing because Eklin was a, I think he's a, I think he's a, a first round pick, right? San Jose. A pick going back. Look at the skill here from Eklund on Joseph Wall, the Leafs golly. Not everybody can score it this way, but
Starting point is 01:13:01 you see, that's a kicking motion. I don't know why that's... I can't believe they allowed it. Right? So it's... It's the exact same as a Cornell, but I don't... He's placing his foot there to deflect it. This one did count, I believe. I also have a question Tannav's commitment to defense here. Like, he was gliding
Starting point is 01:13:17 away. It was not a good night for Wall. He had two of those. And then had to, here we go. Then at the Will Smith. Youngster in the shootout. That's okay.
Starting point is 01:13:31 Real good. Was he 21? 20? What is that? Yeah. And then Celebrini, who was also good. He's just 18, right? Yeah, he's just.
Starting point is 01:13:43 It's just a puppy from Vancouver. Good enough for the league yet, not sure. Also went to watch for side after a thousand. thousand moves in 10 seconds. Joseph Wall was doing the break dancing. Denny Lemieux. He was falling into the stick rack, freaking out. It's like sitting on Coles there. He's just trying to get out.
Starting point is 01:14:01 They're good. They're real good. And still last. Points wise in the league, right? And still going to add like one of the most talented players in the world. Like, I don't know if you could pick a team to be a fan of for like the next 15 years. I can't cheer for that team. I'm not saying, I'm just like goal horn and the think, think, think after they scored still this you're allowed to hate them they have a nice collection of young players yes and the jersey suck back to the east great chase is going on
Starting point is 01:14:25 here to you right somebody's going to win the wildcard in the east that i don't think's good montreal is really trying to spit the bit the islanders islanders sold and they're still in the mix the rangers they're going to gas fire trade everyone Columbus has come on hard times Columbus Detroit's still in the mix oh boy someone's limping in here now look you got three weeks to get this straight note. But a couple other interesting chases. Look at the Atlantic. You've got one point separating
Starting point is 01:14:54 first from second and third. The two, three there is no good. And first place might have to play the senators, which might also be no good. Lots to play for there. Not so much in the metro. Everyone's locked in. No one's moving. Let's keep going.
Starting point is 01:15:12 Torts run. A couple days ago, I'm sure you guys talked about that a bunch. Weird. A guy that we know is good at coaching veterans and not great with kids didn't work with a really young team. It is odd. Yeah. Huh. I don't know how that could have been.
Starting point is 01:15:26 Kevin Kurtz of the athletic. It's fair to say something happened between Cam York and John Tortorella in Toronto. They contributed to the coach's dismissal. They probably both crossed the line. Okay. Weird. Cindy Crosby still good at hockey? I'm going to ask a question.
Starting point is 01:15:46 So in a situation like this, things are shitty in Philly. It's not going well, and it's a rebuild, and blah, blah, blah. You've got a coach who's a hothead or was anyway. I don't know if he's as hot as he used to, but it has the ability to run hot. And you've got a young kid. Now, they clearly are getting in an argument. Who's in the wrong?
Starting point is 01:16:12 Yeah, we don't know. No, no, no. I guess I'm old school and saying, can you can't as a kid can you tell the coach you suck and i'm going to argue with you i mean the bottom line is the literal bottom line of the quote which is they probably both cross the line um i i don't know that coaches have free rein like they used to like you can't come and insult me and take cheap shots without me saying i don't think that's fair and here's why you're screwing this team i mean i think we really don't know no we don't and so they both probably both closed across the line
Starting point is 01:16:46 is the quote from the source. So I don't think we can start giving free passes to one side of the other wagon fingers. They both crossed the line. It seems like one got fired, the other got benched. Maybe York was saying, hey, put on a suit. Where's your lucky tie? Hey, sweater boy. Torts.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Yeah. Tarts will get to drink peanut coloss next year for $4 million. It'll be okay. All right. Yeah. Cindy Crosby still good? Wow. Has either been the best player in the NHL or in the small group just below the best.
Starting point is 01:17:18 on every single season since he entered the league. It is 20 point per game seasons. One more than Wayne, three more than Gordy Howell, five more than Evgeny Malcon, five more than Mario, five more than Messier, five more than Marcel Dion, five more than Joe Sackick and Ron Francis. I'm as a unbelievable. Incredible. The fact that Malkin is right there.
Starting point is 01:17:40 I think Sid has abandoned that. For sure. I mean, they're both great players. It's not like Gratzky didn't play with anyone. It's true. All these guys. real. The consistency is really amazing. And when you
Starting point is 01:17:52 switch to points per game, it gives you a little wiggle room for the concussion in the outdoor game season and some other stuff. Because, you know, you've had lockout shortened, pandemic shortened, all that stuff. But 20 point per game seasons, goodness. Jack, your boy, screwing up this rebuild. He's to go.
Starting point is 01:18:08 They got killed yesterday. Yeah, it really did. Tristan Jari is so back. He's been yanked his last two stars. Good for him. That he's bad. All right. next from one goat to another Alex Ovechkin
Starting point is 01:18:22 we'll get to this in a moment called his whole team out to shake Mark Andre Fleury's hand after losing to the wild blowing a lead literally pulled guys out of the tunnel and shook hands at center ice it's Flurry's swan song season we don't know when Ovis is he's still got six to go
Starting point is 01:18:40 so the wild win this game yeah they blow a lead to the cows and Ovis hey hey hey we're not going anywhere fellas. Don't, don't. There's enough hot water in the showers. Just don't put out here. Hey.
Starting point is 01:18:55 Alex Ovechkin got the guys out of the tunnel. Brought them back on the ice and said, no. We have to go shake hands. I'm going to put some boogs on my shaker hand here. Yeah, get some boogs, load them up. Yep. Wipe it on the pant. There we are.
Starting point is 01:19:11 Oh, it's nice. I mean, it's incredible. And look, This guy gets so much about hockey that we, I think, take for granted. There's been a lot of really highly talented, talented players from Russia that come over, and it feels like they're mercenaries. Alex Ovechkin is a fabric of the game guy. And Chris Johnson wrote a piece the last few days talking about how impressed Barry Trots
Starting point is 01:19:36 was him in Washington, that you could go hard at him and he would not react poorly or mope or come back at you. like this he may as well be john simpson from saskatchewan like he is a heart and soul hockey guy the way we don't expect russians to be i agree i agree with you 100% and i don't know if it not i think that obviously there's a maturation that happens i think when he broke into the league there was this guy's kind of a prima donna you know this guy could it's going to be able to win are they going to be able to win with this guy? But he's just he's done it all, obviously now.
Starting point is 01:20:19 And everybody loves him. For a long time, it was, if you liked Sid, you couldn't like Ovi. That was part of the problem. It was this Russian guy with, you know, couldn't like him both. Tinted advisor. And it was,
Starting point is 01:20:31 it was almost like there was kind of a, I don't know, fabricated rivalry. It just, it was like, you can't like Ovi if you, like Sid and who can't like Sid. He's Canadian. Look how great he is. Whereas again, if the guy's name is John Smith from Saskatchewan, you love everything about this guy from day one. What I like about that is you see handshakes, but in the playoffs, it's, that's what you do. That's, you know, that's going out of your way to do something.
Starting point is 01:20:58 What if they see each other in the finals? Good. They will for sure, yeah. Yeah. Matter of time. Kate, that's, I think that we had one more jack there. You'd notice. did it yesterday, I think, fellas, that Brad Marchand, who took morning skate, like right after the trade, finally to make his Panthers debut. I was blown away when I saw debut tonight because he was, he took that morning skate against Boston. Remember, he came out at the comments? Oh, you took a morning skate four weeks ago and has some play. Get used to the sun. You got to get the base. You got to build the base. Yeah. Maybe that's what it was. Couldn't put his shoulder pads on. That's what I heard. Katie's got a good base. Look at it. Rich the elbow room. No, just a lot of sun down there.
Starting point is 01:21:43 What's that? I'm going to check this on the up-ity-up. All right. Very good. Yeah, good tan. Everyone's tan down there. We're looking pretty pacey. Jack, what do you smile on us?
Starting point is 01:21:54 Johnny Zoom cam. Easy. We got some Flames prospect news. I'm bouncing around on you, Jack. Let's go to the, I'dar Sunni have had an incredible day yesterday. Now, he's a player at UMass. Had a monster year, second year in
Starting point is 01:22:11 college. He was drafted when we were in Nashville. Do you know as part of the Toffoli deal? Third rounder scored a goal game with Penticton in the BC League. It is 3-1 at one point for Minnesota who are heavily favored here. They've seeded them one through four in the in the quadrant, but it's really like three against 13. It's a goal from Sunniyev here brings them to within one. And he was done because this game needed overtime.
Starting point is 01:22:37 soon you have a lethal finisher, up to 20 goals on the season. And it's just stuff like this. He gets a shot he doesn't miss. Let's get to overtime where things got even better. Sound up for this one. And he gets tripped up at center ice. No call. And the Minnesota Fates will throw their hands up into the air.
Starting point is 01:22:57 Don's Lashmillis moving in on a backhand Lishmillsmills, score. And UMass is stunned Minnesota in overtime. So do you have second of the game? They move on. They're in the finals of their quadrant. Pretty good. Heartbreak.
Starting point is 01:23:15 Heartbreak. Lots of heartbreak. A friend of the show, Luke Strand's Nakedo. Yeah. Lost in Wattowt last night. Luke Strut. Coach of the year, CCHA. I think that's a tough one for Jimmy Snuggieroot, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:23:29 Wow, there's three or four drafted players on this highly. I love to debate you. I don't think he did F all. That was one. Hell of a pass. It really was. And I was sound up for this one. Well, it's overtime.
Starting point is 01:23:43 As to the back door and they scar. I thought, I thought he was going. Listen to the excitement. Jack, sound up on this one. On a backhand, Lishmilla, score. And UMass is stunned Minnesota in overtime. It's a big goal.
Starting point is 01:23:59 That is a nice pass. Whether it's a tap in back door or not, it's a big goal, it's a big word. A lot of them this year. The flames are going to push to sign this guy this spring. now be Michigan State. 16 against one. Oh, the folks.
Starting point is 01:24:14 UMass was a big upset. 13 over 5. There's the double O.T we talked about. As for the action today, another Flames prospect in action. Arseni Sergiv, the net miner for Penn State's been really good this year. Amongst the leaders in the nation for goal saved, but we've expected. They got four seed Maine. So that won't be easy.
Starting point is 01:24:34 But, hey, lots upset so far. Flies got anybody, I quit a Piac? No. the only two guys in the tournament of the two events. Okay. Yeah. Bobcats, good jerseys.
Starting point is 01:24:46 Got some WHL news for you. Well, it's college news too. Remember Caden Linser of fourth overall? I do. Hasn't played a game this year for Medicine Hat? Oh, no. He'll come back for his 19-year-old year. Nope.
Starting point is 01:24:57 Off to Michigan State. Oh, ho! Fourth overall. Wow. And yeah, of course, Michigan, Ohio, the big rivalry there. That's a Columbus perspective. but if you're the Western League,
Starting point is 01:25:10 this is where you start getting nervous. This is an absolute superstar in your league who was well over a point per game in his draft year as a 17 year old. Sounds like he'll. It might not be the only. Tiger departing medicine hat this summer. They're good team.
Starting point is 01:25:26 Might be it for their window, though. What are you saying? There's a lot of shit going down, Dean. Lots happening. Well, I guess that. But you're talking about the tigers. Who are you? I mean, well, Gavin is probably too good.
Starting point is 01:25:38 for the dub now. That would be my thought. And if, you know, you can find a way to get some NAL money, square or not, get to play against older men in a better league, work out on Mondays, play twice a week, fly everywhere, don't ride the losses for 15 hours. Playing your summer hockey league team.
Starting point is 01:25:55 What a... I take Caden Linser on that team. You need to shake the rest. He hasn't played all year. Yeah. What a cushy schedule. As with the Calgary Hitman, no cushy schedule here. They get started tonight. Oh, ho. It is the Blades and the hitman first time in a quarter century, these two clubs have met. Is this the first time?
Starting point is 01:26:13 I was in bed thinking about this last thing. Well, see, I did some research where I couldn't figure it out. It says the first time in 25 years of they met. So I don't know if that's when the hitman came in or if they played 26 years. Came in. What year to the hit? 26 years ago because it's 2025, Dean, right now. Okay.
Starting point is 01:26:29 Thank you. I think the hitman came in around 97. Oh, yeah. So probably once late 90s is my guess. Lades with a shit. And look at this. Hunter Lang, Lang, Flames, prospect son of former
Starting point is 01:26:41 Abasterty Captain Quentin Lang, also from Washington Capitol. And there's Hurtig as well. What the hell are these reference names? Just flames. Our buddy, of course, yeah, it's all right. So this Lang is certainly a flames reference,
Starting point is 01:26:56 but I don't know what the other three people's names. So Lang is the son of a former Flames farm hand. That's not. The hell's a farm hand. Ryan worked in the A. So knows that this kid's dad played in the in the in the a okay axel hertig was drafted by the flames he plays for the hitman we saw hunter lang in uh pentictictin he's big six six he's got 25 goals this year a lot of very very good seasons
Starting point is 01:27:23 for the 25 draft 24 draft class uh in the flames system so where is your bread buttered here rat let's ask it too oh what screw that makes sense i guess Sean hopross run in his mouth come down there and slap you upside the head. Yeah, you will. Arm wrestling, you big galo. It's got bad shoulders. I have been requested to attend one of these illustrious games and perhaps give us speech.
Starting point is 01:27:52 Just saying. By which team and who asked you from that team? The hitman won you nowhere near them in the playoffs. That's fine. That's right. Flames and the hitmen. They don't want me around. That's fine.
Starting point is 01:28:05 That's fine. I'll be in the visiting room. Pop it up the place. That's right. They love me and maybe they'll retire my number one. Hey, what do you think about retiring my number, fellow? Hey, fellas, I can make a speech. What do you say about old four is going to the rafters?
Starting point is 01:28:16 Who's this guy with the stash? What's he talking about? I think he's drunk. He's talking about chasing the oilers and the standings or something for the flight. I don't know what he's talking about. He's going to start a soup and sandwich shop. He's doing a lot. This guy's hammered.
Starting point is 01:28:30 Moving to Buffalo on him. Two days notice. Here's the rest of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Medicine Hat beat Calgary, the last game of the rest. regular season to get topsy. That's how close they were. They get Swift Current, PA, Edmonton, and the hurricanes, Southbridge. They've got the Brandon Wheatking.
Starting point is 01:28:47 Have fun, Swifty. Yeah. All we need here is Rhett not to get in the way of Calgary Medicine Hat in the second round. That's all we need here. What do you tell? That would be unbelievable. Draft eligible kids, top two teams in the entire league this year. Has to move on and your Hunter Lang's dad will be upset with you. Hunter's dad. Hunter's dad will be happy. And the blades win.
Starting point is 01:29:12 He coached with Jerome last year. Quentin Lange. Yeah. Please. All right. I like my anecdotes. You know what? And Iggy, if I send you a note, you get back to me.
Starting point is 01:29:25 He's not watching the show. He's had enough of your bullshit. The number you have is like from 2005. I did have an old Iggy number. It's a cat. What is this? He's moved to Boston and Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh and Colorado and Camloops.
Starting point is 01:29:40 I was texting it and the person was responding with, it's not who you think it is. And I'm like, oh, they're like, stop texting me. Then what do you have to do then? Tell them the free guy. Then you're just relentless. Yeah. Do you want into my startup?
Starting point is 01:29:59 I've got this great. Yeah, I got the soup and sandwich shop. You're going to love it. Real thin. Slice is a thin. I'll send you a business plan. Yeah. Uh, good news. Apparently the baseball season did start yesterday.
Starting point is 01:30:11 Uh, and the blue jays, phenomenal on opening day. In fact, coming into action yesterday, the only team in the major leagues to win every single opening day game of the 2020s. Probably short work of the stinking trash birds. The Orioles. You losers. Uh, 12-0s. Oh. And, uh, that's, it seems early, but, you know, advanced metrics these days, probability model.
Starting point is 01:30:37 getting pretty good. Jay's 11th. That's tough story. And those early games don't usually call it? Barn burner. Breaking news. It's tough. Ah, geez. How long has he been doing them?
Starting point is 01:30:53 Too long. He's got to go. Okay, yeah. I was going to say because he's going to get fired, right? 100%. Yeah. They need some scapegoats if they don't get these guys signed. He's bringing in torts. Yeah, totally. And the beauty is, if you worked yesterday and you couldn't
Starting point is 01:31:07 watch the game because it was a 1 p.m. start mount tonight, Apple TV, not on cable. Thanks, MLB. Really let us get settled in. They might be doing you a favor. They might be. After that. You know what I'm going to grind to find it just to get disappointed. Kevin Gosman on the bump for the Jays tonight. We'll revisit in our bet three, six, five bets in the day.
Starting point is 01:31:29 Let's get some dumb stuff. Well, hey, Jack, it was a great start for skeins. Great start for skeins. Was it? How do you do it? It was awesome. A couple of Ks. comes out of the game and they blow it. It's okay. They're rebuilt. They're all solo made. How'd they do?
Starting point is 01:31:44 Win. They're so humble. Interleague to start, that's clunky, isn't it? Everyone's odd. You're picking a team or you still got five teams at your hero? What's up? Do I have a team? Yeah, you do with the Yankees, buddy.
Starting point is 01:32:00 I thought you were hanging out with Donaldson. What the hell? You had your Yankee hat on yesterday. I did have it on, but I'm not really. You know, you really, you're a good frontrunner. You should cheer for the Dodgers. No, I don't like that. You don't like that show?
Starting point is 01:32:12 Pretty good. I like the Padres because I like that. Yeah, the fathers are good. Let's go, dads. Great barn. Mets. That's got a lot, though. Fuck the Mets.
Starting point is 01:32:22 I'm in on the Mets this year. I piss off boom. And the kids. I used to like the Islanders. How can't I like the Mets? The same colors. So easy. Spoiler colors.
Starting point is 01:32:33 Ask the Sutter's about the go to Mets game. Steve brothers is a Shay stayed in oh boy rough okay speaking of baseball the yard goats they're getting their season

Starting point is 01:33:09 No. You're a goat milk fan? No. Jack, you into goat milk? No. Where is this? A Hartford. You need anything to spice up your day.
Starting point is 01:33:24 What a dump. That's where you got drafted? Yes, it's terrible. Isn't there you like in a mall or something? Yes. Oh, dear. And not high-end mall, like strip mall. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:45 Fantasy football in our league is three-time winner. You don't have to worry about this kind of stuff, but people that finish last, you've got to do things. This league's got to figure it out. This is the devil punishment we need. It all is tipped. There you are. It's kind of.
Starting point is 01:34:01 Now, obviously more. Seems dangerous. You know, what would you call it? more tropical weather, more, uh, inclement. No, Clement, water around. There's water around.
Starting point is 01:34:13 It's not as cold. I don't know how to say that. What the hell am I missing words, Jack? I don't know what the, you're talking about. They've set up a floating barge. That takes a lot of work and effort for a week.
Starting point is 01:34:23 Yeah. You just got, look, he's got the life jacket on. He's taking calls. He has on a Zoom. Ah, Q4.
Starting point is 01:34:28 We got, he's got the chair there. If you have to have a face-to-face meeting with this. You got to do any casting? This clown is a challenge. Maybe it'd be nice. Maybe. I think it'd be real nice with the first two hours.
Starting point is 01:34:41 And you're like, what the hell I can do for that six days? Bring a nice lunch. That meat slicer out there. Hold up a sign when the boat slow down. Don't rock. That's right. My office. The jukebox.

Starting point is 01:35:10 planks. Kind of went through the plywood. Once again, I don't know what your what's your finishing move. Where you? You know what? If you've ever had hands on a piece of like
Starting point is 01:35:29 plywood and that's maybe not even ply, that's some kind of, it's not like it's like super smooth. No. You've got. some rash abrasions yeah you've got some splinterage yeah in the shoulder neck face cheek region scrapy scrapy yeah like road rash which serves it up but keep it up yeah kids are skateboarding your kids your kids are skateboarding right red never never seen this move before i mean we've

Starting point is 01:36:25 Some people are really fucking stupid. Now, shutters are around some of it. Well, she's off. And I missed, I missed the beginning of this. But let's try new things. First off, I don't know. You can't park there. I don't know how, but Rat was, you had to get the car back.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Wait, what the? A little, uh, let's foot. Oh, it's a freeway stop. It's submerged. I need you to go get the car. All right, well, where is it? Sober up, sweetheart. Too many apple martinis.
Starting point is 01:37:17 No, don't a drink goes, make you sick. Puk all over Los Angeles Boulevard. Appletes? Appletes? delicious. How did they get the car up there? That's why I'm asking Reds. Rett? I'm not ever going to spill the beans.
Starting point is 01:37:36 Insurance will find too embarrassing. Cloud laws on it right now. Finally, a good pal checked in. Friend of the show, do you know, you hate that? It's Aussie Brad. Ben, Ben, Vinda, Red Trial, Lulis.
Starting point is 01:37:54 Back and living a drive, Guys, got out of New York. Wolfie's the fucking man. I reckon we're fucking up and a man of Wolfie. I reckon he's going to get me over. And the problem's there. Look at the moment. Boom.
Starting point is 01:38:22 So good. Tell her ready. Oh, John. The lost wheel there. Oh. Can we just watch them? Why did we play this all day? Jeez.
Starting point is 01:38:44 It's unbelievable. He's in the bag. Imagine if he has neighbors. And he has John Day, out in the tractor, singing and yelling at his phone. That was one of the hardest ones because of the engine is to actually hear
Starting point is 01:38:57 what he was saying. He's talking about Wolfie because he's got the 30 to one Wolf Calder ticket. If Wolf wins the Calder, he's coming over. And then, of course, the others get Shalak last night. I get these at like three in the morning, which would be like Friday,
Starting point is 01:39:11 a happy hour, it looks like for him. Yeah, he did come. You got the oiler shots, some wolfie, keep punching, bum, red. The John Deere Green's a nice, a nice touch. What a legend. And then at the very end, he almost loses the wizard. Oh, yeah. O'clock.
Starting point is 01:39:26 Oh, I got the beer in the hand. Oh, no one to go to. Game Pounder! Oh, hey. Oh, hey. No better way to end up into a part on a Friday, fellas. Tremendous. Tremendous.
Starting point is 01:39:42 That's, yeah, that's Village Honda. bringing you the Pinder Report on a Friday. Ozzie Brett. Gosh, love it. God bless. Oh, had some tears going there.
Starting point is 01:39:52 That's a good one. One last little clip. This was, so now Russell Wilson, this is, I don't know, how do you feel about, we talked about,
Starting point is 01:40:01 I think maybe you were gone, Mason Rudolph is still the only guy. That's unbelievable. All these quarterbacks have been signed. It's just, does Pittsburgh know they need one? I'm not sure. Russ is a New York giant.
Starting point is 01:40:13 What if you have, James? What if it was Russ and Rudolph? Would you feel better? No. You're done with them? Yeah, I'm done. He talked himself into Russ, but that, that was bad for me. It was good for two weeks and then it went straight downhill. Well, you know what it's like when you go to a new, especially in New York when they bring in a new athlete and say, hey, you're going to go. So, Russ was at the Knicks game. Do the tour. Yeah, they had him court side. And so here was Russ doing the sign on autographs and being a celebrity. That's good. Has to get rid of me to that. Picked off.
Starting point is 01:40:55 He on the way. Madeline Humphrey, pick six. Marlon was there. So quick. What are the odds? Already. Jeez.
Starting point is 01:41:03 He'll be a great giant. Yeah. Love affair over. Already. That is too bad. Where did Danny Dimesland? Is he indie? Yep.
Starting point is 01:41:10 Indy. He's a cult. Because there's not, like, again, it's musical chairs and the Steelers still. Maybe they're better off. Like, do I have a sign?
Starting point is 01:41:19 Save the money, give it to charity. Is that what happens? Well, it's better than giving Rogers 45 Schmell. Yeah, the Rogers thing feels like it's going to be rust but even worse. Yeah, like they really should. They're fans and the people would be more appreciative. Listen, don't sign that guy. Just go with what you got.
Starting point is 01:41:42 Take the 20 million and divide it out to some nice charities. Thank you. What an organization. And bought them out and pick someone. Go get your next. It's been stopping. Cap guys for too long here. Plan it out for next year because
Starting point is 01:41:55 whoever you get now ain't helping you. Hand the ball off, run, play defense. Flacco, yeah. Joe Flacco. Joe Flacco. Are you seen the Cleveland Browns thing where it's like the list of all the quarterbacks that played for the last?
Starting point is 01:42:11 Yeah, we're building that now. Kind of are, yeah. The challenge is that there's enough good players. They can't really bottom out. So it's like, oh, yeah, you just be bad for your draft quarterback. but like T.J. Watt's not going to let you lose that much. And he probably wants out if you're going to actually be bad.
Starting point is 01:42:24 I don't know. This is a weird spot. Big year though, Jack. Big year. Big year for the Jack. Jackometer. You wait. Someone will draft a quarterback that we weren't expecting and they'll slide in and
Starting point is 01:42:35 snipe a quarterback. Give the money to charity. Jack. Give it to charity. It's time to get caught up with the bracket. Oh. The candy bracket continues. We went from 16.
Starting point is 01:42:49 to eight, the elite eight, down to the final four. The votes have been pouring in. We got a bit of a kind of, and we didn't want, we had a bit of a veiled update yesterday that some of these were getting a little lopsided. There's some that were close, but it was still anybody's game in terms of the candy bracket. Voting closed less than an hour ago. Maybe. And we, I mean, we had kind of some predictions yesterday.
Starting point is 01:43:19 Um, if you had to guess now with it, because we don't know. And even the people that vote because it doesn't show you. The one seed cola bottles were taking on nibs. Thoughts. You, I feel it's cola bottles. Bottles roll. I was joining Jack and just eliminating that whole section. I would, I didn't like the coal bottle.
Starting point is 01:43:45 I'll go nibs. Sayin nibs. Uh, the, it was Skittles versus Swedish berries. It's the year of the skittles. I'm telling you. Yeah, you might be right. Are we doing, are we trying to predict who's going to
Starting point is 01:43:57 I just get, who do you think one? Or who do we want? Who do you think one? I think Skittles will pull that out. It appeals to too many people. Swedish berries is excellent, but it's just a big,
Starting point is 01:44:06 more niche. Yeah. It was peaches, the fuzzy peaches versus the sour soothers. This one's tough. I'm told you from the start. I'm a peach guy. I think it's peaches.
Starting point is 01:44:16 And the bottom one was gummy bears and sour patch kids. Like the kids. I think it's kids. I think it's kids too. and I don't think that's, hence, part of my reason the peaches move on, because I need the peaches against the kids. Can't have two sours.
Starting point is 01:44:30 All right, Jack, I'm, man, I'm excited. We have a final four. Are you nervous? I am. Can you smell my pants? Okay, here it is the one versus eight. One V8 bottles, nibs. Defending champs.
Starting point is 01:44:47 Can they, are they in a, go back to back? Yes. There you go. Staying alive. The bottles, 485 to 306. A healthy margin there is a healthy margin. 50% more. Convincing.
Starting point is 01:45:01 Convincing win for the one seed. So there again, all the people, oh, cola bottles, one sit. They're into the final four. And maybe it's because you're a high seed. Maybe the opposition hasn't been challenged, but it's been lopsided. Not a fluke is what we're learning.
Starting point is 01:45:18 That's right. All right, Jack. So now where do we want to go? We got to go to the other side. There we go. 27. The 27 peaches. Soursoothers.
Starting point is 01:45:26 Rhett is praying to the candy gods for his peaches. I bet you this is tight. Oh, it's a walloping. Boom. 485. Putsch 306. Jeez.
Starting point is 01:45:39 Domination. Yesterday. And then it just. Oh, people rock the peach. They got out there. Yeah. Job people.
Starting point is 01:45:47 All smart people. Wow. So again, we've yet to see our first upset. It's crazy. In the bracket. So, yeah, we're talking 10 in a row or the favorites. So now it is up to, I think it's the gummy bears and.
Starting point is 01:46:01 Gittles are sour patch. And the, uh, the berries. Sour Patch kids, three six. I guess is it right here. I think we have an upset. Come on, kids. Those gummy bears. It's making us weight this prick.
Starting point is 01:46:13 Yeah. It is. There it is. A little tighter. The sour patch kids. Oh, yes. Can't be trusted. We should, we may have to check.
Starting point is 01:46:23 voting because yeah they're a devious they're not above cheating no 445 to 347 so the kids advance the gummy bears are gone it's too soft to there's fiends pukes these kids yeah just a little too soft rats like this last one was our closest one oh wow skittles come on
Starting point is 01:46:43 skittles versus Swedish berries don't tell me jack and the berries were the higher seat yeah four berries were four berries are four Skittles are five. Well, I mean, honest, come on. Swedish berries v. Skittles. Closest match going into the final day. And we end up, oh, man.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Yeah. Skittles, 404. 17 votes. 387. Is that my great math? That's whatever. Yep. What he said.
Starting point is 01:47:16 Wow. That's incredibly close. I would. I love the berry. but I would have expected the Skittles to have a bigger support group. Boys, we've got a final four. Look at this. There it is.
Starting point is 01:47:27 Finally, a couple of upsets. Skittles and Sour Patch Kids. Oh, this is such a good final four. I'm glad we get to ruminate on this over the weekend. Like, let's make sure we really dive in and sample. We'll open up the voting on Monday. Cola bottles versus Skittles, one versus five on the, uh,
Starting point is 01:47:51 You should test all the ones that were eliminated just to. Yeah, yeah. I wonder how we could do that. They're clearing out their lockers. That's what they're doing. Full of them. And then the fuzzy peaches versus the sour patch kids. And again,

To your point. Bet you wish you had some of these right now, I, Jack. Oh. Not super fresh, but I did buy them a month ago. All right.
