Well, ho, ho, how are we doing, everyone?
Welcome back to another week of Barn Burner here with Flames Nation on the YouTube's
and wherever you take it into your ear face holes.
Snow day.
Yes.
You're at home?
There is so much parking in Mardaloup today.
We had two-way traffic open on the two avenues.
Wow.
You are full of shit.
I can only imagine how shitty it would be.
No, no one's here.
No one's leaving their house.
On top of it.
They're doing what you're doing.
I parked right in front of the studio today.
If you can get there, Dean, it'd be great.
You'd get here.
You're screwed, but if you could.
I could have got there.
But I felt it was kind of like,
this feels like one of those days you could use it to your advantage.
I'm pretty snowy, hey, guys?
I drove my kid south.
Where were you?
I was early.
I drove my kid south east school.
They have skate.
So went to the rink.
And going south was no problem, but that north.
bound to your foot.
Yeah.
Gee, gosh,
wouldn't,
wouldn't recommend it
for sure, yeah,
yeah.
Have the brand new snow tires
on the,
on the vehicle,
like no excuse,
absolutely could have.
Yeah,
Pinder too,
he's ready to go.
Yeah,
how are the,
how are the winners?
You know what,
Dean,
I'm going to press pause
on that,
and for the sake of my marriage,
we're going to move
to the next topic.
Thank you.
Back to you,
Dean.
Well, who could have seen it coming?
In fairness.
Just time a year?
Like late November?
Yeah.
We never get snow.
Third week of November.
Now, I've had the quote for a couple of weeks.
Well, you got to mold that stuff over.
You really do.
Yeah.
When you say a couple weeks.
There's a couple, two, a few three.
Let's see.
Is it under a month?
You know who is happy, Dean?
Who's that?
Shovelerino.
I bet she is.
She woke up to a birthday snowfall.
Oh, wow.
Is it a birthday?
Birthday.
Oh my gosh.
You get, you know what?
You give her a little tickle for me, would you?
A little chivalrino.
Nice.
Yeah, you, uh, you set the photo there.
I was wasting no time.
Oh.
So nice.
Yeah.
Just looking at the date.
It was a month ago, exactly.
Okay.
So, yeah.
So a couple weeks.
A couple weeks, two to four to five to three being few.
Yeah, okay.
Because I remember I seem to think it's like,
I think we started talking about winter tires.
about the same time.
And anyway,
you know what?
It won't be busy now, I'm sure.
Yeah, I did have the,
I'm going to be that guy and send you this text today.
So just, you know,
Paul, you mentioned the,
what's about to follow.
But.
Yeah.
You mentioned the,
the wife.
What,
um,
what's that situation?
What is that?
Back to you, Dean.
Good.
At least you got Witter tires on her vehicle.
Yeah, yeah.
For sure, right?
Oh, boy.
Well, um, traveling from Vancouver.
They'll arrive Wednesday.
Yeah, okay.
Like, end of the week.
No sweat.
No sweat.
Stay home a couple days and don't,
you should be out there anyway.
That's a family in danger.
I hit seven blocks to school.
Yeah.
Well, I can, you know what?
Here's one that's almost better.
Oh.
We, uh,
got home yesterday.
The one vehicle is,
in the driveway. The other vehicle
we are in.
And the dumb kid parked
in the driveway. So there's two vehicles in
the driveway. Ordinarily, we'd put
Mama's vehicle in. But we just parked
on the street.
Kind of forgot that, you know, the kids
got his truck out there.
Woke up this morning, snow.
So
four vehicles,
all of them with a foot of snow on them,
empty garage.
Four. You guys are collecting them all.
That's not real.
It's stupid.
How's the insurance costs?
It's not great.
Oh, dear.
The thing is, though, when they're all shitboxes,
there's an 06 and there's a 2010, so it's not like it's a extravagant set of circumstances over here,
but still, it's, yeah, it's dumb.
How was everyone's weekend?
How do we do?
Everyone all right?
Link time.
A lot of humphlets.
Yeah.
Saw retro on Saturday.
We were both at the same event.
Our pals of the Cloud Law.
Let's see them.
That was good.
Speaking of the shoveler,
there's a bit of something's going on here.
I knew something was up when he was always ripping on her for being.
He.
And then Calgary's hottest couple apparently.
Yeah.
The photographer of the event came up and said,
I've been looking for you two all night to the shoveler.
And I said, you are the hottest couple at the whole party.
And I said, you and the shoveler.
That's right.
Yeah.
And then we both had a big smile.
And I said, isn't it amazing?
Her dad's here too as well.
She's like, that's so lovely.
I'm proud of you guys.
Yeah, that's funny for a while.
Yeah, I would have been funny for a little bit, for sure.
I get a kick out of it.
Yeah.
Come on in.
A little tighter.
Let's go, you two.
You mean she didn't automatically throw the brakes on and say, no, no, my husband is right here.
No, no, she liked it too.
It was pretty fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So did you win?
So it was a, was it a McLeodlaw event or we were there on their behalf or how did that work?
McLeod Law sponsored.
A charitable event that Rhett and I attended.
It's the 12th annual, but I think it's early for McLeod and their sponsorship of said events.
So they were excited to be there.
Big crew.
Good to see Peter and a bunch of the other crew that were used to, Tammy and company.
So it was great to catch up with them, a great cause.
And I almost won just massive, obnoxious, inflatable Santa Claus riding a motorbike that I'd have on the front step.
And my wife would have had another reason to delete me.
So luckily I lost the bid on that at the last month.
That's too bad.
That's too bad.
So no one won a motorbike?
I was a motorcycle thing?
I didn't.
I haven't heard yet.
They're probably-
I donated my golden ticket.
Did you?
I didn't think it was right to.
Well, yeah, you're probably right.
Jeez, feel bad now.
Smoker, we'll give it away.
He doesn't seem right.
Well, there was a lot on the go.
we had a great cup. We had a
farce of a heavyweight fight.
We had NFL football.
Kickers can't, kickers are so
great until Sunday and then they couldn't kick
yesterday. They were so good all year. Everyone
was automatic from mid-50s and then yesterday
you're seeing like 20, 30, 40-yarders getting
missed. Yeah.
Anthony Richardson,
incredible quarterback.
Geno Smith, unbelievable.
Wicked. Yeah. Some real
impressive performances yesterday.
But
as laid out on this show multiple times last week by the brash and confident,
Rhett Warner,
the Buffalo Bills,
hand the Kansas City Chiefs their first loss of the season.
Yeah, they stopped them.
Just like I said they would.
They said, don't worry about the number.
There's going to be an ass whooping and the bills are going to deliver it.
So only sad part about it was I was not in attendance.
I would have been rip,
I just, well, I won't talk about it today.
Yeah.
I'd be hurt.
Snow day in Buffalo.
Dry road snow day.
And I wonder if it's snowing in Buffalo.
I think bass is still horseshit.
Do you?
I don't like him.
I don't trust them.
Kickers are weird like that.
He's felt so money just a couple of years ago, but it's fickle.
I know.
I was excited.
This guy's good.
Ooh, you, uh, you missed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, he was in good company.
There were a lot.
It was, uh, McPherson missed a couple or three last night.
Your bears almost had a win.
Bears like, well, you know, blocked at least, not the kickers fan, sincerely.
So if you're keeping track in the last three weeks, a Hail Mary to lose on the last play of the game and a blocked field goal to win.
I will say this, though.
Entertain.
It's it's sunk its hooks into me.
Because I literally had the butterflies.
I'm like, okay, come on.
Let's go.
Let's go.
He hits a dunes A for the big, for the big.
That's got to be it.
That's absolutely.
You're there.
This is unbelievable.
right here we go and from that angle it's so far away the kick is up i don't see where'd the ball
go all it's blocked uh of course blocked and then it was like okay so so i so i am sour and i was
kind of i was into it and yeah it's yeah it's this is so now i i'm officially a part of the bears
bears nation i guess whatever you want to call it sure it's like yeah well of course it didn't go in
course didn't go in. Chargers looked good.
Until they didn't. That was reminiscent of the 28-0
nothing screw up in the playoffs against the Jags a few years ago. Remember
that debacle?
Second half was a nightmare.
Yeah. They did get a score in the second half, but not
before they allowed Cincinnati 21 points in a row,
which is almost double what they're averaging per game against.
But they held on win, which is kind of on Charger Z.
Well, I know, this new coach is helping.
I'm afraid they're actually good.
They're seven and three.
That's ridiculous.
You're afraid they're good?
Well, it's just, you don't, this team breaks your heart so often.
You don't want to get sucked in because then they're going to hurt you again.
I'm ready to get hurt again now, I guess, because I think they might be good.
Get hurt again.
I didn't know that the hurting had stopped.
Well, you just quit.
They're so bad.
You're like, all right, just be awful and get a high pick.
We're going to have Frank Sarah Valley joining us, one of our hockey insiders in 8, 10 minutes, 10, 12 minutes.
somewhere in there.
We'll have the Pinder report today.
I'm guessing a very busy one.
We need to check in with our buddy Jack.
I don't know if we didn't know if we're going to do the Jackometer today or tomorrow,
but man, oh man, the Steelers.
Wagon.
Ravens?
No big deal.
Not a problem.
Jack was not worried about Lamar.
He was right.
Commanders.
Next.
They're legit.
Jack, how are you feeling, buddy?
I slept like a baby last night.
Yeah.
my Steelers, BJs.
Yeah.
I told you guys, Lamar's the shits against the Steelers.
He was terrible.
The Browns lose.
The Bengals lose.
The Ravens lose.
I'm still in my pajamas.
This is a great day.
26 and 10, Tomlin moves to, or sorry, 16 and 10 he moves to against Arbaugh?
Am I off by a bit?
Yeah, and I think it's nine and one in their last 10.
Oh.
And you're not wrong.
Lamar's numbers against the Steelers, specifically in Pittsburgh.
No good.
No good.
One in four now?
One in five.
five.
One in four, yeah.
And we've got one of those kickers, man, he is good.
He might be the best kick in the league.
Wow.
Throwing things around this morning.
You are.
He's so consistent.
I don't think he's got the best leg, but he doesn't miss.
You are in the pajamas.
I can tell.
No one's happy here for a snow day than Jack.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
You're going to rewatch it today?
There's a thing, though, Jack.
A lot of.
pressure on them now.
A lot of pressure on them.
A lot of pressure.
It's the best kicker I've ever seen.
A lot of pressure on them now.
Now they've got these layup games.
Oh, you can't get to destroy the Browns.
They're going to absolutely wall up the Bengals.
Let's go.
They're good.
I wasn't sure.
The schedule is softer than puppy crap, but that's two really big wins in a row.
And you look at what you said, Dean with Washington and Jane Daniels,
who's got the rookie of the year wrapped up already on the offensive side of the football.
And then, yeah, like, Baltimore's a good team.
They're a playoff team.
Now Steelers have the inside line.
for the division.
Unbelievable.
Happy for you, Jack.
Happy for you, Paul.
A lot went on this weekend.
Some of it important, some of it not so much.
We'll cover it here in a moment.
It is a presentation of the hearing loss clinic.
Locally owned and operated here to help.
It's not just about hearing loss or impairment.
It's about empowering everyone to be socially active,
more connected with loved ones and confident in every aspect of their life.
When you can't hear when you're missing out,
you kind of shelter yourself, you back away from social situations,
that sort of thing. This brings you in. I'm hearing things. I'm involved in all the conversation.
And on top of all of it, studies show health risks like dementia, depression, and others have been linked to untreated hearing loss.
Get it done today. Five locations in Calgary, including the sparkling, shiny new one, the Chinook location at the corner of Glenmore McLeod.
And five locations in British Columbia. Go to hearingloss.ca to find the location nearest you and get yourself book.
in for an assessment today.
That's a little bit, some sounds of the weekend here for hearing loss.
I don't want to go to the post-season.
That's what this shit means.
Yes, sir.
They put in their hometown, fuck them.
Yeah.
Rosby's got a chance to get the pens even again.
Score!
Honestly, I got like a ritual.
Like, when we lose, I ain't even getting a shower until early this morning.
I just be mad. I just brush my teeth.
But it's like, I don't deserve soap.
I don't deserve to do all that.
I just, I'm just focused on, like, trying to
and get back creating greatness here you know i dig it coach enjoy your shower all right betty yeah i'm
to get wise i know that winters get washed oh that's good sweep me word to the front the carum
hits pay dirt ovechkin celebrates again and away comes washington with ovechkin closing alix fires he's
god to dora fia turned back protis lobs it ahead ovetkin for the hat trick here his 31st career hat trick
seals the deal
that one fired across it and ricochet's back maybe a break
for him again he's in he scores
you're setting a monumental opportunity for kids my age to see
the legend mike tyson in the ring for the first time
so after such a successful career what type of legacy would you like to leave
behind when it's all set and done
how what's the adapter i think i want people to think about me when i'm gone
who the fuck cares about me
when I'm gone.
Herbert's been great to this point in his career.
He's better now.
You just watch him.
Everything's under control for them out there right now.
Except that he's past behind.
Nobody can do that like I do that.
That is unbelievable.
You are undefeated.
And now Drysettle turns it in past Tavares.
That's broken up.
Back the other way.
2-1.
Marder and Tumaris,
who shard back.
Marger, straws.
The winner.
Please do us the honors. Check, check. I have to ask, right? Who, uh, what do you want?
All right, Toronto.
And Dorothea. Michael, could have centered and out. Barbershop put it right through the crease.
And Thompson covers it.
Now, Barbershop put it back out the other side looking to tie it.
Tom Brady is calling for us on Fox right here at the top of the hour and through the magic of television.
Look, there he is.
I got to say, this technology is incredible.
I feel like you're here, man.
I feel like you're looking good.
Hey, this is insane.
Two big customers here.
Well, this is a little more entertaining than something in Dallas last night.
Oh, Olivier Jack Guy both landed on that one.
You idiot, it's about how that's about.
I can say what I want.
What are you, Marcus?
Hey, sit the fuck now.
He should have five more points.
What game were you?
Get another bite!
Get another bite!
Oh, more?
Not wrong.
I meant to look.
How old's Bill Kauer?
Oh, he mean, Jesus.
He did not come up short there.
He was all in.
67.
Is he really?
68 on May 8.
Sheesh.
It's going to hurt your,
that's going to put something out there.
You got slip a disc or something.
In the hot-ups, a minute after that.
That's the sights and sounds of the weekend, a presentation of hearing loss clinic.
Again, five locations in Calgary, the new Chinook location, she's a beauty, she's a
few.
Five locations in BC.
Helping you hear better is simply their way of helping you live better.
Book and assessment today, hearing loss.com.
I feel like that kick to the face and pickleball was excessive.
I like that.
I didn't see that.
That's good stuff.
You're going to do that earlier, though.
Well, yeah, I think obviously he was very excited.
Too excited.
Fuck yeah.
And went through the high five and guy just kind of, he was going to tap brackets there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he went with the high five and knocked it out of his hand.
And I guess that was the breaking point for buddy.
I feel like if that's America, somebody's getting sued.
Think?
All two people.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dool in lawsuits at this point.
And dude, because you almost have to watch that a few times, which I did, putting it together.
Because his buddy comes over.
He was like, hey, ho, hey, what do you?
What is?
Oh, hey, hey.
And the guy's kind of like,
whatever.
But the guy who does receive the boot,
he's, uh,
he's cuckoo for cocoa puffs.
He is.
He's lit.
So jack.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Tap brackets.
Oh, you're pretty aggressive.
Oh.
And dude.
I mean, dude is.
Please do it.
Oh.
The hat is good.
There's a lot there.
There's a lot there.
Did you like the,
the coin toss for the,
the great cup?
It was great.
Now, here we go with the,
this will be heads and this will be tails.
And I guess I need to ask one of you,
which side of the coin you're going to be picking.
I'm never done a coin toss before.
Congress of the Toronto Argonauts, by the way,
on a, I believe they won yesterday.
Nobody does mess.
and wins the Grey Cup like the Argos.
It is unbelievable how many years they'll wheel in at like 9 and 9 or some shit and then
they're lifting it.
Yeah, I don't even know.
No one cares if it was Regina, it'd be pandemonium.
No one cares in Toronto today.
Yeah, Toronto has three wins on the season, but came in through the West.
And we'll make it to the Great Cup.
And congratulations in the in the Grey Cup and no one cares.
They got like a 700 winning percentage in Great Cups.
They just, anytime they go, they just win.
What do they do?
10 points spread at the start of the week.
Is there a parade?
Do they have a ceremony?
Because I'll tell you what, there'd be nothing sadder than a parade for the Argos in Toronto.
The wrong city for a parade for the CF.
Raptors said a good one.
But yeah.
Maybe a tailgate, Rhett?
Hey, we'll meet at.
Tailgate, that might be good.
That would be good enough.
They should go to Buffalo and watch the bills play.
Tailgate party, no parade.
Let's go.
Parade down to Buffalo.
You guys might be on your own here.
Oh, you're good.
You're good.
My wife only, she did about a three-hour Zoom thing the other night.
No problem.
Yeah, buddy.
Really?
I'm batting about a thousand on this one.
Anyway, hey, you know what we got?
Got our hockey insider.
Oh, good.
Back by popular demand.
band as well. He's doing some good work today for, I'll get to in a moment, but the literal theme of
his show today, right up early. Is that right? I believe so. I saw the headlines in the teaser on
the YouTube's. Beautiful. It is time to go to the insider hotline presentation of Crystal

From DFO Live, from DFO Tonight, from DFO After Dark, from DFO, from DFO Daily.
DFO Cribs, Frank Serriveli.
Hello, Frank.
For Barnburner.
Whatever it needs, whatever it takes.
Whatever you need, whatever it takes.
Whatever it needs, whatever it takes.
So, okay, so let me end what's going on.
Pinder set, yeah.
What was your show topic today?
What's happening?
Well, we had a great many topics.
We did spend a chunk of time talking about the Boston Bruins.
You talked about the Washington Capitals and Alex Ovechkin
and his assault on the record books.
We talked about the.
Ryan Reeves hit.
Talked about the Chicago Blackhawks and Connor Redard's inability to score.
What else did we weigh in on?
I don't know.
Anything happening is what that's what happened.
Okay.
Maybe I was looking at our show.
Either way, this is quality.
It's great.
Nothing like a heavy tease of minimal research.
Yeah.
That's what I've done for us here, guys.
Over promise under deliver.
It's what we're good at.
Every day.
I guess we can get in on.
on any of those things.
Why don't we start with.
Heavy tease.
I feel like there's something to unpack there.
Wait a lot of what Franks got today.
You know what?
Let's,
we haven't talked about it yet.
The Ryan Reeves hit on Darnel Nurse.
Five games.
And it's not,
I mean,
it's an ugly one.
He's out cold.
Or at least he is severely concussed.
I don't know how long he's going to be out.
It's a it's a it's a, you can take runs at not literal runs, although it was here, uh, as what to
darnel nurse is and isn't, but the oilers can ill afford to have him gone for any amount of time.
You hope he's okay.
What's the fallout?
What's your sense on the, I guess the length of suspension?
Because that's what we do.
We know, is it too much?
Is it the right amount, whatever?
Or just thoughts on the hit, the intent, all of it.
Look, this was a really poorly executed, poorly timed hit.
do I think Ryan Reeves barreled down the ice thinking that he's going to get Darnel Nurse right in the chin?
No, no, I don't.
I think the suspension was appropriate in length and it was a clear cut shot to the head.
We've made an example out of hits like this for years.
Ryan Reeves knew it at the exact moment in time.
And he also made his way down the hallway at Scotia Bank Arena to apologize to darn
nurse during the third period in person for the hit.
So always like to see that.
But is a guy who plays on the edge and clearly cross the line.
Yeah.
If he's not, I'm going to say, if it doesn't look as bad as it does,
if there's not blood on the visor, if he's not concussed,
if it's not as graphic, is it still five or do you have to,
because some are saying, there should be 10.
I don't know.
Warner, you took a look at it.
What's, I don't know.
It's, he's going in for a head and he gets him on the chin.
And like Frank said, I don't think, very rarely do I think guys deliberately get after a guy's head, right?
Like, I don't think that's even part of the process.
So, but you still do it.
So I heard about it over the weekend and people are screaming.
He's going to be out forever.
I'm sure he's got some sort of history with the discipline committee.
but how do you determine whether it's five or ten?
Can we actually,
can we roll this one more time?
Because I want to ask Rhett what he sees here.
When Nurse is rounding the net,
and look, timing is so much of this, you know, this game.
But when you look at it from,
uh,
from Reeves perspective,
does he take the,
like one more half stride from Nurse?
and just to be totally candid and clear,
like at no point am I blaming Darnel nurse,
the onus is squarely on Ryan Reeves.
But does it look like he,
he kind of sees him coming at the last second
and holds up just a bit?
And that's when his,
his head is,
is right there for the picking.
Am I missing that?
Yeah.
I almost look at,
does he ever take a shoulder check here to see?
Like, kind of there, I guess.
But he's really,
he really,
not take a look up the ice. We say it all the time. And it's not, it's not even a shot.
It's not it. The players are so used to not getting hit anymore. They, they, you fall into a
spot where you're just, you're just playing. You're just playing the game. You're out there.
You're not even thinking. I think for a lot of the, you're not even thinking about it getting
t-boned anymore. And then all of a sudden, on one particular shift, one player decides,
I'm going to level this guy. It's going to be more than just separating the player from the puck.
I'm going to hit this guy.
And then that's,
that's what happens.
It's not anybody's fault,
but I just think that's where the game's at.
I think that's a huge part of it.
He does not look.
He goes back into a corner,
picks up a puck as a defenseman,
and never takes a look.
Reeves is on the ice.
You should know where he is,
right?
Especially if you're back getting a puck.
And again,
we're not blaming the victim here.
Like Reeves,
you got to find a way to not take the head here.
I think five's totally appropriate.
But you guys are right.
Like most of the hits.
we see up for suspension, guys are totally not ready to get hit and they have the puck.
We are three-tenths of a second there from that being a shoulder-to-shoulder monstrous hit.
Yeah.
A clean one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, get well, get well, darnel nurse.
I don't know what the oil.
Five to ten days, they said.
Yeah.
This morning.
So not exactly what they need there.
We were talking with dregs on Friday.
It was about a year ago.
six months ago,
Marty Nachis is on the,
basically whoever wants Martin Natchez,
you can just call up
whoever is the GM at the time
and get him out of there.
He is now the fastest player
to 30 points in franchise history.
He is on an unbelievable tear.
He's a monster.
He's top five in scoring.
It's quite a turnaround.
Obviously, guys are good,
guys are,
but to be basically trade bait
to top five,
in league scoring in the first month of the season, pretty rare.
I'd say borderline unprecedented.
I mean, we're talking about a guy who during draft week last June was on his way to
the Buffalo Sabres for a deal completed in principle in which he turned around and did
the unthinkable for Rhett and said, I don't want to play in Buffalo.
Don't want to sign here.
So this is a guy that the Hurricanes knew was a really talented.
player that was asking for more opportunity and ice time that has also signed an incredibly
inexpensive two-year contract relative to production so far that the only thing I'm left
wondering at the end of this is what's his actual ceiling here his previous career high is 71 points
and he's like almost halfway there,
not even a quarter of the way into this season.
So can this guy, can he get to 100?
He had 53 and 77 games last year.
He's got 30 and 17.
His career average over an 82 game stretch is 52 points.
I mean, he already has 30 again in 17 games.
So I would argue that a lot of what we've seen to this point
is probably not sustainable,
but what if this is just different?
What if this is a guy who in his sixth full NHL season
and there's probably a long list of these guys
that find a way to break out and become,
for lack of a better term, game breakers?
That's exactly what the Carolina hurricanes have been missing
the last few years.
What if he is that?
And you know what around Carolina,
we were never going to trade this guy.
We knew.
No, they're not flat earthers.
They're not deniers.
Well, and they got a decision to make, like, as soon as this summer.
That's when you can extend them now.
It's six and a half this year, six and a half next year.
They bridged to make the problem go away.
He wanted a long-term deal.
They weren't comfy.
That's where this all started.
The old man shimes in.
Now they do have to make a decision this summer.
Walk this guy to UFA, trade them, sign them.
I think it's the best possible position you could ever be.
And if you think about your roster construction,
the way the Carolina Hurricanes do,
you mean we could buy two insanely cheap years of Marty Nature's production
and then potentially let him go?
or trade him.
I mean,
they're in a no lose situation.
And have two more years to really feel like you know what you're buying or not buying.
Yeah.
How much are we going to be?
It's real good right now.
But to your point,
he's been a 50.
Yeah.
If he stays at 50 points,
six and a half steep for a winger because he's not playing the middle.
He's had like 30 draws all year,
which is basically the amount of winger would have when your center gets thrown out or penalty killing and shit.
So he's still not a center.
But this production,
no one saw coming.
I don't think Marty saw this coming.
how could you?
What would what would you hang your hat on to say,
oh yeah,
I predict this.
Right.
What's going to happen in Boston?
I know,
we're kind of,
we've been circling around these guys,
but they,
they're not really pulling themselves.
They're eight,
eight and three.
They lost an overtime Saturday,
but we're beating seven two in Dallas on Thursday.
With everything that's going on,
we had the goalie stuff before the season.
They traded the other goalie.
There's just a lot going on there.
I just,
feels like Monti's got to go.
That's the word code, you know,
just the drumbeat coming from a lot of the fans and the people in Boston
and it's just it's time.
He's got to go.
I don't know that I buy into that.
I mean,
did he just wake up and all of a sudden
forgot how to be a good coach?
Like I don't think that happened so far this year.
When you hear some of the things that come out of his mouth after games,
he's almost exasperated.
I mean,
he was critical this weekend of his team's quote,
lack of juice. Like, where does that, that comes from the players inside the room, the guys
that the skates on, not the coaching staff. And I guess through the, through the whole, like,
take a holistic 30,000 foot view here. My big thing is, the Boston Bruins need to put a steak
in the ground. You're either extending this guy who's a lame duck and in the last year of his deal,
you're either saying right now, Jim Montgomery's not going anywhere. We are keeping him, get used to it,
or you make the change now and you've got plenty of runway left for your team to rebound under a different coach to be better to make sure that you make the playoffs and have an opportunity to win.
So do it right now.
Don't wait longer, but one way or the other, it doesn't, I don't know that there's one path is better than the other, but just do it now.
I guess the other thing is too.
Are they, are they better than an eight, eight and three hockey team?
Of course they are.
To what end?
Look at that, well, how often are the Boston Bruins with Jeremy Swamen and Nett?
Are they going to be the 26th ranked team and goals against?
He's kicking in 888 this season.
They've also tried to play Zedorov as a top pair guy.
That's a disaster.
Even top fours can be a little much.
I mean, you have to acknowledge there are, there's some more weakness here than there was last year, no?
He's a four.
He's a number four in the NHL.
Okay.
Fair or foul?
Yeah, I mean, that I think that's probably fair, but they had to play with McAvoy.
23 minutes a night at one point.
That's a mistake.
And look, guess what?
Lindholm has really struggled in his own right.
If you listen to Lindholm, he sounds not too far away from like Brzgalov lost in the woods
need iPhone compass.
Like he said, I'm out here just skating up and down the ice and I don't even know what's
happening.
So he's really struggled to make the transition.
But then again, am I concerned?
Not really.
Like, remember what he said when he arrived in Vancouver last year?
It was very similar, like not too long after getting there.
and he struggled.
But then he turned it around and was unbelievable for the Canucks in the playoffs.
So I, to me, I think this team finds a way to sort it out.
I think Swamen and their defense are too good not to.
And you mean to tell me that the best producing line for the Bruins for the remainder of the year
is going to continue to be their fourth line?
Like at some point, Pasternak, Lindholm, Zaka, like all these guys are going to start to
click, I would think.
And they, they're still 500.
It's not like they're way far out of it.
They're two wins away from being in second place in the,
in the division.
Where do you rank them in that division?
Because I mean, Toronto's fits and spells.
Florida looks great.
Tampa, I think people were down on, but it looked strong at times.
I have a third.
The young team's pushing.
Who do you have them ahead of out of that group?
The lightning.
And I know Tampa has been kind of hot of late.
But for me, I think,
Tampa is still like a 98, 9900 point team.
I think the Bruins can be slightly ahead of that.
So Warner give the side eye with the,
Elias Linton's lost, retro.
He's just got to, he's got to find his way.
I feel terrible for him.
I feel terrible.
What did he ever do to you?
He asked for 90 year times eight.
That probably was the breaking point.
It's still kind of amazing through all of that
that he ended up getting what he got.
I agree.
we thought he cost himself 20, 30 million.
It might only have been like 10, but, like, he was just okay for the Canucks down the stretch,
better in the playoffs, but they played him as a 3C with like Garland and Dakota, Joshua.
It wasn't like he was, you know, top six running the power play.
Like he's, I sort of think of him as like a super plumber, like a really, really good secondary piece.
But if he's your 1C, I don't know, man.
I really don't.
That's why I'm not as bullish on Boston.
What if he was a winger?
But what do he, right?
Like, what does he get paid if he's a,
winger.
What if, like, the Bruins did better last year with Coil and...
Zaka.
Yeah, I mean, you can't...
I don't know how you could argue for me that the Bruins on paper roster-wise,
and then go look at Linus Hallmark's numbers in Ottawa.
I don't know how you could look at them on paper and say the Bruins are worse than they
were last year.
Well, Nashville...
Is Nashville?
Right?
Like,
different pieces matter.
Yeah,
and on paper,
you're right.
But sometimes it doesn't always equate.
Anyway,
I don't want to overlook
Debrusk leaving and Hinen and JVR.
And like,
they did certainly lose some goals for sure.
But I think the Bruins are better than they've shown.
I just wonder about Lindholm just because like,
fine,
you want nine million.
You're here last year.
You have a,
your year to prove it.
your way out the door. Like you didn't even
talk to play. I don't understand.
You should be, if you're a Flames fan,
you should be over the name. I am happy with
it. My point is now he's in Boston.
What kind of person and teammate is he?
Like he has,
for me in Calgary,
when things are great, he was,
oh yeah, if I'm with the two best players,
I can be okay.
And as soon as that, he actually
needs to produce.
I don't think he's a drive.
Isn't that nice. That's my biggest beef about
all these guys that think they're good.
Yeah, I'm good if I'm with McDavid and Drysidal.
Oh, well, no shit.
If you're good, you drive the bus.
You're not a freaking passenger.
All of which brings us to Connor Bardard.
Overrated.
Oh, jeez.
No goals in nine games,
four goals in his last 31 dating back to last season.
Didn't they just healthy Taylor Hall too?
I see that.
And that's where I'm at,
with this not to first time his career yeah he gets a healthy scratch
tavo terra vinen started with seven points in his first five he has one in his last 13
and tyler bertuzzi is on a milk carton and yet because it was in van
because badard is from north van all the sudden read all the coverage and look at everything
over the last 48 to 72 hours all the sudden now the black hawks are back at our
pet's heads are falling off stage and I just refuse to believe that that's the case.
So what?
They're still bad.
You didn't expect them to be good?
Like, walking through your position here.
Yeah, I would say that this team, let's say they have the same record, but Baderd is
piling up points.
Does anyone even notice?
No.
Let's say they get two more wins and they're eight, nine, and one.
They hang on against the Winnipeg Jets earlier in the year, give them one of their few losses.
And Baderd still is where he's at.
is anyone sounding the alarm bell?
Probably not.
They're like, oh, whatever.
The Hawks are on pace for 63 or 64 points.
Last year they had 52,
taking a small step forward,
but they're also at a moment in time
when Bernard isn't producing.
He's going to find a way.
Well, I think it works out better for the Hawks this way.
I mean, I know if you're in Hawksland,
you might not like it, but,
and if they're benching guy,
I don't know, I don't know what the approach is.
Oh, my God, I forgot the coach's name.
Luke Richardson.
I was going to say Robitai, but I don't know what.
I mean, I guess if guys are floating and you're trying to just establish a,
we have to at least work hard here.
I don't watch the Hawks, but I would think at the end of the year,
the Hawks fans should be excited if they're, if they shit the bed the rest of the way.
You don't want to see Bedard fail forever, but do you really?
Yeah, but do you really believe, if you believe that, well, you go ahead.
I don't.
Yeah, I take that spot where you've got Baderd already in the,
in the locker room.
Yeah.
And let's shoot off.
Yeah.
And we've got another high pick coming.
It'll be all right.
I want to ask you.
If you'd like to move them, you could.
Yeah, I think probably be good.
Yeah.
The centers.
Can you get a high.
I know you don't watch the Hawks, but if you get a chance,
watch Alex Vlasic on the back end, I think he's like the next.
Is that the same spelling as Mark?
Like, that's not a.
He's huge.
He was he 6 to 6 to?
he's monster.
He's not 6-8, but he's also not the heir to the Vlasic pickle throne,
which we did have to figure out with Mark Edward.
But he should be on the team US Olympic team in 2020.
He's that good.
It's a perfect shutdown guy.
That's your view on him?
I think he's really well balanced.
I think he does just about everything well and he doesn't stink at anything.
There you go, Rhett.
Homework assignment.
Hawks, Vlasic.
Plus you get to listen to Rick Ball.
We'll reconvene.
And you get to listen to Rick Ball.
Yeah.
Another team, I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention to just kind of going through
looking at Stanings, the Detroit Red Wings.
We talk a lot about the senators.
When are you guys turning things around?
Buffalo.
It's been bad forever.
It's not to the same extent for Detroit.
But Stevie Y goes in, you know, trades guys away.
You're going to get younger.
You're going to high picks, this and that.
They're one point out of last in the east.
31st in goals four.
Only Anaheim is worse.
The ducks beat them Friday night.
but they're 12th in goals against Cam Talbot,
53 and 1 with a 2.42 and a 927 or something.
Dylan Larkin's got 10 goals in 17 games.
De Brinkett and Raymond are just off a point per game.
What's going on in Detroit?
Is it clearly not just goaltending?
They've got some nice pieces on the back end.
I think everybody loves Mo Cider,
and then up front there's some pieces there.
Why are they scraping the bottom of the conference?
Because they're not a very well-built team.
I mean, so you're going to tell me that the team of five goalies in camp is struggling in
net and the team that has two high quality NHL defensemen is struggling to defend.
And then the rest of the forward group, which has been surrounded by vets that are not cheap
that they've essentially tried to buy support for, you mean to tell me that doesn't work?
I mean, the drafting part of this, if you actually go through pick by pick, the wings have done a pretty nice job.
But I think the development part and then filling out the roster, they're trying to put band-aids on a bunch of different holes.
It's actually kind of like that scene in Vegas vacation where Chevy Chase is walking through the Hoover Dam with the piece of gum.
Like every time you try and plug one leak, you've got another.
one somewhere else. And I don't know what their path out of this is because their defense,
as much as you want to say, hey, you know, Mo Cider and then throw in Simon Edvinson,
those two guys cannot carry a whole defense corps. They're not, they don't have the makings
anywhere close of a playoff ready defense. And that's their biggest weakness. And then add in the
goaltending factor.
Yeah.
Or contributes to it.
Yeah, I was kind of surprised that Talbot's numbers were as good as they were.
Because I, so yeah, Billy Hussaud, not good.
They, Jack Campbell, they put him on, on waivers and all that's happening with him.
But for Talbot to actually not be all that bad.
I just, uh, not losing faith in Stevie Y.
It's maybe not a Stevie Y thing, but just everybody loves especially, you can imagine
up here, Stevie Y.
He's almost like a captain Canada kind of guy.
Everybody, he went, goes to Tampa.
Tampa's great team.
Goes to Detroit.
He's going to turn them around.
just hasn't happened maybe as quickly as we thought it was going to.
Is there any chance?
Like, I'm not asking this to be an asshole.
Is there any chance that Julian Breezebaugh was a big part of their success?
Absolutely there is.
Detroit's been a disaster for Stevie Y.
Like the point the shines come off.
It doesn't mean they can't be good.
But like signing Ben Chirot as a UFA at the time seemed idiotic.
They lose Jake Wallman for a giveaway a second with him.
You could have got a second for him.
Like there's been some really head-scratching moves.
I couldn't agree more.
And the fact that also with the level of goaltending that's available every summer,
you haven't found one possible replacement to at least carry this team until Sebastian
Kosa can take over, not acceptable.
What's up with Montreal?
They're all of a sudden at the bottom.
And I think a lot of people had them pegged for a step forward this year.
They're young.
Everyone loves the coach.
Some people were suggesting Sam Montepo would go to the Four Nations.
He might need to go to the A.
He can go to Laval perhaps.
I don't know.
Like it's been ugly.
It has, but I'd also say read Matt Larkin's piece on Daily Faceoff last week about the death of the 900 goalie,
and then look at the quality of shots and volume of shots that Sam Montenbo has faced this year.
He's actually been pretty good, believe it.
Yeah, the blue line's green, isn't it?
And that's exactly the root of their issue is.
So they had a bunch of guys that they were trying to assimilate into their lineup.
up. And then, oh, by the way, Mike Matheson misses time with a back spasm and Caden Gully is hurt.
And all of a sudden, a thin group is over at skis in short order because they just don't have enough there.
And the guys, some of the other young guys that they want to see more from, you know, Logan Mayu is not ready to step in and be an NHL defenseman at this exact moment in time.
David Reinbacher is hurt. And so they're basically trying to kill time or buy time.
and it becomes this scenario in which the Canadians needed to take a step forward this year,
they say to themselves, should we go out and trade for someone that could help us right in the here and now,
but that we really only have in our plans for one or two years?
Is that the best use of assets?
And I think they've all sat back right now and said, probably not.
It's painful right now.
And our fan base has been really patient.
And so as our owner, we're hoping that that patience doesn't run out.
but it doesn't make sense to throw good money or good assets after bad they tried and took a
swing on a few things hope that patrick liney would work out he's been hurt another example um you know
they they need to make a move and and trade kovssevich in the summer because they have too many blue
liners david reinbockers heard and the other injuries that i mentioned like it just nothing has gone
right so far this season in montreal and their best players haven't been their best players i don't
care what his point total has been. Nick Suzuki has played some of the worst hockey of his career
in a 10 or 12 games stretch this season. So they've got a lot of work to do and they should have
been taking a step forward. Okay. So you talked about Matt Larkin's article. Essentially,
the just of it, fellas, is that league average goaltending is flirting with 900 again after, you know,
10 years ago would have been around 915 or so. Meanwhile in Calgary, you've got a Calder eligible
player who's leading the league in five-on-five save percentage. Why is there no buzz about
Wolf for Calder. I'm hearing all kinds of stuff about guys that are not nearly as impactful as the
guy that's leading the league and save percentage of even string. Well, then you didn't listen to the
DFO rundown today with Jason Greger because I talked about exactly that. Thank you.
And look, for me, Dustin Wolf, if I'm voting today, is in my top three for Calder.
The question will be, how many games does he end up playing? And what does that save percentage
end up looking like as we get later in the year.
We know, and Ryan Clark wrote a great story about this on ESPN.com last week.
And in fact, you should have him on your show because he's a friend of the show and he's good.
He said, why has it been since Steve Mason that it's taken so long for someone, a goalie,
to win the calder?
And I think one of the big sticking points for voters is games played, impact, right?
and a lot's also going to depend on where are the flames and the standings relative to all of it when it's all said and done.
But I'll take it one step further.
Not only should he be in the mix for the Calder, but if he continues to play at this level, the Calgary Flames are going to make the playoffs.
Rhett said it.
The one thing that undermines a rebuild is elite gold tendings.
He's a really good goalie.
They've gotten it from him.
They really have.
He's six, two and one.
By the way, Vladom,
Our hasn't been bad either.
No, he's had the tougher matchups too.
Cool.
He's been ridiculous in the HAL.
And they have some structure.
We didn't think they'd be good in front of them,
but defensively they've been fine.
It's offensively they've actually been struggling.
Friggin' Conroy.
If Dustin Wolf continues to play
at a 920, 921 save percentage,
the flames will be in and the Kings will be out.
That's wild.
It's not hard to imagine at this point.
I kind of agree.
And I think Wolf is,
just starting to feel it.
I agree.
So what's an ideal total of games played?
50 plus.
If he plays that way, how don't you play him 50 plus?
Like you kind of have to, I think.
I mean, it's good as Vladara has been and you can't criticize him at all.
I just think if Wolf is going to put up those numbers,
you're going to jump on board because the question was,
can he do it at this level?
He's doing it.
He's going to be your guy.
And if he's going to go and show you that he's got it
and wants it and is just starting to take,
you're going to ride him.
You're quickly going to ride.
Because he's not 20, right?
That's the other thing.
He's been seasoned.
He doesn't,
50 year pro.
Yeah.
How many games was he playing in the minors?
A ton, like a shit.
So the other thing, like,
Olmark wins the Vezna with 48 starts two years ago.
And people all of a sudden,
the Calder care about that.
Like, that's ridiculous.
I'm just,
don't, don't shoot the message.
No, no, no.
And I'm not blaming you, Frank,
because you're level headed out.
You always, like, I agree with a lot of your
voting stances. You've made people publish their voting as the press. I think you've done a lot of
good work there. But it's just, it's so weird to me that you'd give away the best award for
goaltending with a 48 game starter. No one has a qualm about it. And now all of a sudden because
it's the call there people care. Like, huh? Well, and you also can't like look at the rest of the class
too, right? Like, Celebrini was hurt for felt like almost a month. And then Stankovin has been good,
but has what, four goals to this point? And Mitchcoff has been a healthy scratch already. So it's
not like the rest of the
the rookie class has been absolutely lighting
the world on fire. Why isn't Wolf
getting more love? I don't want to keep you for too long
Frankie because I know you got stuff.
You got to you're okay for a bit.
I guess just my only other thing was
the argument is the teams that he's
played. His wins this year,
Nashville, Los Angeles, Montreal,
Pittsburgh, Chicago, and
Philly. Not a playoff
team in that group except
maybe the LA Kings. But
it's not his fault.
he's put in the net and he's been he's performed extremely well i think it's now has won 10 of his last
12 going back to last season you can't ask for much more from anybody okay this was by design too right
like the flames go back to you know what the message was before ladar started the season
opener the flames are going to use him selectively and in spots to make sure that he has the
best possible chance for success it's when you get off to a start like this and you put up consistent
numbers and you start to feel really confident, then you can begin to take the training wheels off
and throw them in there for big moments against big teams in big spots.
Yeah, if he starts Tuesday, it'll be five of the last seven.
That would be a distinct change from the alternation we started the season with.
Well, let you get out of here.
Appreciate you, Frankie.
Have a good week.
See you guys.
Later.
There he is.
Daily Faceoff, our hockey insider.
He's just talking about Wolf.
And then I tried to tease him into it at the start and he didn't bring up Wolf.
Well, you didn't remember what you.
Oh, I knew.
I just, he went through the topics and never got to Wolf.
And I'm like, oh, I thought.
You could have thrown him a little.
Is there a goalie?
Yeah, flames goalie, maybe.
I'm trying to ban it a little bit.

Still coming.
Crystal clear Calgary.com is the website.
My furnace is cruising.
Just chugging away.
Purring.
Yeah.
The Wolf's opponent's thing is interesting because, again, it feels like it's a different
standard for goalies, right?
Like, I'm not here saying you should be the Vezna guy.
That's ludicrous.
But do you think Mishkov gets loaded with DZone starts against other teams top lines?
No, I know.
No, I understand.
He does like they don't.
They just don't.
Like that's how you treat rookies.
You bring them into the league and put them in spots to succeed.
And, you know, that shouldn't hurt Wolf.
It's exactly what everyone does.
You got a rookie defenseman?
You're putting them out there against McDavid all night?
Are you trying to keep them away from McDavid?
And there's little thing.
They didn't even let me play against Gretzky the first thing.
What the hell is this?
I'm not new.
That was Wayne, though.
He had, you know, when Wayne asks, you just respect the great one.
And there's other things that happen inside of that game.
It's like, yes, it's, it's, it's, it's,
it's Nashville and yes he ends up shutting
though but in the first period the flames were horse shit
and they were turning the puck over and they were
scoring chance I know the shock clocked it
you let in two or three in the first
and okay well now you're out now Vladar is in and now okay
well Vladar is going to get the next start if he can
he just he hasn't really given them much of a chance
to say okay we're going back to the other guy
he's been consistently strong when you think about
his last two starts the only thing that's beat him
they needed to go to like a four minute review
of the cameras in the net to see if it
cross the line by a quarter inch.
They only scored two in each of those games.
One's an empty netter.
Like, they lose both those games if you get mediocre net.
It just looks like a guy that's dialed in.
Like you, right?
Like, it just looks like he's totally comfortable being out there.
What are you going to?
I'm here.
Like, you're not going to play me?
Come on.
I know.
I, it's, I, I, I'm with you 100% and I don't know how many points that equals or
people that are on the other side.
In the playoffs.
Or Schock fans or Stanko, whatever.
But I don't give a shit about, I mean, it matters and it'll be happy for the kid to win the Calder, but.
Yeah, the bigger story is that he can play in the league.
Yeah.
Oh.
And that's an understatement.
That if this is, if he continues to be strong and confident and play like this,
you've got a decade.
Don't you feel like you've got an incredibly safe floor and you're still really excited that he hasn't really gotten close to the ceiling?
Like, yeah, there's still a lot upside here.
Yeah.
And then it's like, oh, well, is this an anomaly?
And you look at his crew and you're like, no, he's literally done this in every single
league he's played it.
Every single league he's played it.
And he's been too good for that league.
Probably the exact same scenario, sure if I cut you off Ryan, but I guarantee you,
he went to junior as too small a goalie that had to be kind of, well, earned it.
And he did.
And then the American league, okay, well, this is different men now.
This is pro.
We're in the A.
Goli of the year.
wire on this guy, maybe give him a, no, no, no, I got it.
Looks good.
Does look good.
And he's screwing up this whole first round draft pick thing.
Yeah, but it's okay.
If you found a goaltender, that's going to.
Yeah.
So the other thing it does is it, because the start that Kuzmenko's had, it's not like you're
like, okay, we're going to keep him now because, you know, we're flirting with the, like,
he's, he's been rather ineffective this year.
You're still selling him at the deadline.
even if you are in a playoffs.
I think the more important thing is that you, he's,
and you got to remember Vladar has done it too.
He's been really good.
The goaltending tandem have made those average defensemen real comfortable.
Yeah, I agree.
Right?
Like they don't.
So steady.
Impressed with him a lot.
Just play solid.
Let me see it.
I'll deal with the rest.
And I'm trying to remember.
Was it the Nyquist partial break where Weeger has it and he kind of fluffs on and
then falls down and he's diving at his feet?
It's like, Jesus.
Even, even, like, Uighurs making mistakes out there.
But I, I mean, I'm, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I like you say, I just, it's, he's, you're going to have to, though, allow him to have some bad games.
Because all goalies have, right?
All goalies have them.
And if in January or February, he has a shitty week to 10 days, a couple bad starts, like, oh, boy, I don't know.
Who cares?
Everyone does it.
Yeah.
Everybody does it.
And you know, it's funny you mentioned, and it's not looking to shit in the guy,
but Kuzmenko, I actually meant to bring it up last week.
And that you made the point.
I was going to say, we're past the point of, I'll give him a contract, right?
No matter what kind of a run he goes on or what kind of points he puts up or how good the power play gets because of him,
you're now past any consideration of signing him long term, right?
Unless he's played himself into some sort of bargue of a deal.
But I just think you've already got too many wingers.
you want to see what Hansick's going to look like in the spring.
If Jacob Peltier is putting in the work,
you'd love to get a look at him.
You're going to have guys coming in on ATO.
Guy like Stromperin,
you'd love to kick tires on.
There's just, look, when he's hot,
he can be a really dynamic player.
You're not building around him.
He's not a corpeze.
And he's going to turn 30 the first year of that new deal.
See ya.
And I said, we weren't going to shit on him.
That's kind of shit.
Is that shit on it?
Very nice fellow.
Great sense of humor.
Love his fashion sense.
Love him.
Love the fashion.
Yeah, he's very,
I think he's probably great in the room.
He's not the only veteran not having a great year.
But yeah, like it's the forward group that we thought was maybe their greatest strength
that's kind of let them down since the hot start.
They're not scoring a lot.
We weren't.
We weren't wrong, were we?
You know, the forwards are going to be just fine.
You know, special teams probably going to be, you know, be okay.
Yeah, but I think by the defense and the goaltending.
Eek, hang on.
They are just fine, though.
Like, the forwards are just fine.
They aren't as good as they were.
They're fine.
I texted Pinder a screenshot about the power play and how shitty it's been.
And your comment, if they had special teams,
dude,
they're winning the same thing as everyone.
If you have,
if you have elite level goaltending and five superstar defensemen and special teams that are like,
of course,
you're talking about,
you don't have a $20 million salary cap of space.
to use. Like if you have everything,
you're not battling for
eighth in a wild card spot.
Like, yeah. You're leading this division
right now. No one's run away. Like LA's not
that good. Vancouver's been just okay.
Vegas has come back to Earth. Edmonton's hanging around
but have not been good. Like they're leading this division
if they have special teams. Yeah, like even if it's
just middle of the pack or not
that. They're the worst in the league at special teams
goals percentage is what we're showing.
If you're just listening, not watching. Like it's them
Boston, Utah tied
of all the special teams' goals
in the games they've played this season,
they've got 30%.
That means 70%'s been the teams they've played.
It's killed them.
But yet it hasn't because they're still in terms of overall,
they've scored seven on 52 tries for 13.5%.
That's 30th in the league.
They've allowed three shorties.
So seven to the good,
plus four.
Three to the bad.
And that five on three might have been the two worst minutes
I've seen.
Oh, my God.
And that'd be tough competition.
There's been some dog.
of power plays.
You know, the joke,
oh,
you spent a lot.
You were not a power play guy.
But we,
you,
I have to believe that when a team is struggling on the power play,
and then you get an extended five on three,
you're almost like,
oh, fuck.
As opposed to be like,
let's go get them, boys.
Be like,
Christ.
No, no,
I disagree.
A five on a shot in a minute 47 of five on three here.
A muffin from 60s.
That's their only shot.
A five out three should be a different situation.
Like you.
One.
a shot score on half or better five oh fellas come on as soon as i saw five one three like no one
wants to be out there uh no i i got a skate problem coach i like where's depot i need a new blade
i need something for my stick and poor kail mclean's now tasked with this crew that
that cost marks of art any interest in doing it in calgary
oh wow it'll come around it did last year once
things didn't matter anymore and you could have really come around to what was called kuzmanko it was it was
it was the kuzmanko office well but again if and if kuzmanko wanted to play the power play is probably
better totally agree right he wants to do that for a month and a half and you could pump him for another
round higher of a pick at the deadline that'd be great now becoming more difficult to move
i just want to go back and i'm not looking to barry frank at all but i just you are i'm not i'm not saying
are the flames play up like really well his stipulation was if wolf keeps playing like this and i agree
if you're going to get 920 goal 10 you're but that's not some crazy outlandish thing like all of a
sudden if this guy gets 30 goals and if that guy gets 100 points it's if the goaltending can
they've had two dogs they've had two dogs for games back to back yeah vegas they were back
and the and the concern came out we jumped right on it we're like oh here
it is. Here it is. It's going to get ugly now.
Here's the Deadsville where the effort
and everything falls apart.
Other than that, they've put in the effort. Any team
in the NHL, it's the history of the game of hockey,
if you go out and work and compete, you have a chance.
Their goaltending's been excellent.
If it continues, they're going to be in games.
They aren't so shitty.
Again, most of the injuries they've had
haven't been to key components. And I don't,
you know what I mean? You lose a weiger.
or an Anderson.
Well, okay.
Trouble.
Yeah.
Right.
But same with the center.
You lose Coddia back.
If you stay healthy and your goaltending continues, there's always, yes, of course you're
in it.
Of course.
You've proven that you can.
And they played like 20 plus percent of the season here, fellas.
This is not like we're, we're a week away from November or U.S. Thanksgiving.
Like that's sort of when it's like, okay, small samples aren't small anymore.
they aren't out of games.
Like to Rett's point,
they got pumped in Vegas and Utah on one road trip.
They've been in every other game.
Like they played Carolina tough.
They played Winnipeg right to the final moments.
Boston was an overtime game.
And that's the thing.
Because we remember the Carolina game,
Carolina was better.
The Winnipeg game,
Jets deserved to win.
But they weren't getting their doors blown off.
And those are two of the top teams in the NHL overall standings.
We're not talking about the flames being at that level.
No.
Are you, are the, they're getting some backups still and all that, but that's fine.
You can't control that.
They've played with enough structure, work ethic, and goaltending that they just don't get manhandled.
They don't.
I think they're coached well.
I agree.
And look, is, is Codry unbelievable right now?
No, he's struggling.
Is Hubertoe looking good?
Not really.
Like, there's still, could special teams stay this bad?
Probably not.
They're so bad they have to get better.
Like, there are a lot of areas.
It's going to go on a heater.
He always does.
right share go which will get hot and then caught you'll come around yeah zeri hasn't scored
yeah lumpy lumpy lumpy it's a little lumpy he's lumpy that's how that goes i don't know it's not where i
thought we'd be i've had four or five people over the weekend come up and go i really enjoy watching
this team i think they've got a chance of making it oh yeah and again it's as fickle as
goaltending is, right? If you stop getting saves, this could get ugly. But for 18 games,
they've had good goaltending for all but two. I don't see the goaltending going away. I'm buying
in. He's proven it's it's, it's too consistent a pattern to, can things go wrong? Sure. Can you
have a bad game? Absolutely. It's too consistent a pattern though, and it's a long enough
viewing period. He's, he's capable and he wants it. He's, and he's, and I, and I, and I, and I,
I've seen in the comments.
It's a lot of talking about it.
Like, I spoke to someone in the organization about it.
Expectations are a huge thing.
For whatever reason, whenever this team is expected to be good, they've struggled.
Whenever people want to write this team off, they've been very good.
First year of Darrell, they're probably not a playoff team.
Win the division.
They make the big trades.
Okay.
People have them beating the Oilers coming out of the West playing in the cup final.
So deep.
So deep.
But expectations are a thing.
How easy is it to say no one believes in us, bleep them house money?
Or is just like.
my gosh, we're supposed to win the division this year.
Don't discount.
I mean, last year was a bad year.
But I wonder how far back it goes with guys wanting to get out of here.
There's just so many of them, right?
It was a dark cloud.
Exactly.
You have a team.
What is it?
10 guys?
It's seven at least.
Like that and seven core pieces that I don't give a shit.
There had to be rumblings in there.
I'm going to probably bugger.
off here at the end of this year.
He's non-state, right?
Like it makes a difference.
The other thing, these young guys,
I think Longbird's been a huge piece
because he just goes out and has fun and works his ass off.
I think he sends a message to the,
this is okay.
Like you can just go play hard and have fun.
If you lose, you lose, it doesn't matter.
And I think those,
there's been a bunch of kids that have played
in the minors together.
There's a bond there, right?
I agree.
I think they have.
I bet you that room is way better
than the last two, three years.
So let's go back to,
Dean, you and I were in Nashville
for the draft two summers ago.
We're on the flight.
They trade to Foley.
There's your first free agent.
Michael Backland ends up resigning that summer.
Oliver Shillington,
it was kind of a weird space,
but he was a UFA.
And then three of your top five defensemen,
Hanof, Tannav, Zedorov.
Like, Lindholm on top.
There's seven.
Like, that's the job Craig Conroy inherited here.
there's no way you can show up to work and think things are normal when a third of the roster and a lot of core parts like Lindholm your second pair like they're all saying like are they here are they not everyone's hey Craig it's like it's like the old trades yeah they're really gonna other GMs are going to help you these players are like listen Craig love it here just pay me a million or a million and half over market value yeah yeah I'm committed yeah I'm committed yeah yeah
we kind of said it the sooner you can move past all of that bullshit and almost just hand the keys to the kids yeah
there's none of that don't worry about those guys anymore there's some older guy but whatever this you can see
what's happening and then what makes it worse slash better now there's some wins and the kids are a part
of it oh look at coronado you got some goals hey oh zara you're playing top top minutes and
number one power play oh everybody pospousal you're at center then you're here you're a big
part of what we're doing.
Hmm.
I guess it is our,
it kind of is our team, isn't it?
And then you make the playoffs or come close to it,
finish nine. You got to, you know,
I'm making quite a statement here. There's
top 10 teams, there's middle 10 teams and there's
bottom 10 teams, even though there's 32.
But, right?
You're going to end up in the middle with this.
This feels like a middle 10 team. Now, listen, you can
do some things to affect that. And
goaltending is crazy. What can
you do? Nancy Kerrigan,
Wolf's knee.
What do we?
You trade Rasmus' answer for two first.
Oh,
I see.
The problem is,
yeah,
the problem is you're still too close to the playoffs.
You're not moving any of those guys.
Oh,
you're not touching you to this till March or February,
whenever the deadline is.
At the earliest.
And you're still going to end up in the middle.
But the problem is you might end up in the middle outside looking in.
Remember I had that middle drop at the station?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Something McBride.
I was in that right now.
No,
it's,
what's her name?
She showed off her thing at the,
She was on stage.
She's straight.
Is that her?
No,
she's just her.
That's whatever.
I have something for you,
Rat.
And you too,
Ryan.
But we brought this,
I brought this up the other day,
a guy that we forget about.
You talk about all the players
that you used to play in the league
and some of them live here in Calgary and go,
whatever.
And as us,
we forget,
I guess that guy was pretty good.
Now,
Marty Natchis,
Carolina Hurricanes,
four point night against St.
Los,
He's got a 13-game point streak.
25 points in 13 games.
That is the third most points during a point streak
at any point during the season in franchise history.
Third best.
Second best, Mike Rogers had 39 points in 18 games in 1980, 81.
Second best.
Number one, Mike Rogers had 39.
points in 17 games in 79 80.
Mike friggin Rogers.
Weapon.
Unbelievable.
I think it was maybe the day you weren't here.
Were you here when we were talking about Rogers?
It was last week or the week before.
I was like, you forget how good,
friggin Mike Rogers was.
Mike Rogers was unbelievable.
And I didn't know it halfway through my first year in Calgary.
I'm like, oh, you played?
Oh, that's nice.
Good for you.
that could not be like, played.
I was the same way when I,
kind of when I got here,
Mike's doing color with Peter Marr,
it's like, Mike Rogers,
he probably played, I guess,
a former player, yeah.
Oh, shit,
captain in the NHL,
New York Rangers,
okay, oh, wow,
a lot of points there.
Okay,
I,
I need you to apologize to you.
You don't know why,
but I just have to,
because I was not giving you the respect
you clearly desert.
Awesome.
Well, correct me if I'm wrong.
Like,
that's the WHA era,
and I think he had some time
outside of the,
league and that just kills these guys the same reason like the whole marlow games played thing feels
hokey because like gordy had hundreds in a league that was like this much worse than the
n hl it's kind of screws up the legacy a bit right he's playing in hartford w h a h a quick taking
shots at marlowe what do you you know yeah that's me that's hardford whalers join the league in
79 80 he has 44 goals and 105 points in 80 games geez what does he do the next year 40 goals 105 points
in games gets sent to the rangers well maybe different 30 goals 103 points in 80 games
this year some injuries 76 points in 71 games okay i i'm sorry sir you were very good
So if you add his six seasons in the WHA, I mean, the resume is pretty special.
Yeah, it's something.
And a hell of a good guy and loves Tutsis.
Does he?
Who does it?
That's like a character test.
Someone doesn't like Tutsi's like, we're down with you.
He and Rico, they were packing the cowboy boots and Western shirts for the road trips where they were in Nashville.
As you should.
As you would.
There's some other stuff.
I'll save for later, I guess.
Yeah, we've got more lots of days to talk about it.
Lots, yeah.
We do this every day.
Do we?
Even if it's more, we'll do it.
That's game day.
Got to do it, helmets and everything.
Isles.
Yeah.
The old Islanders.
Do you see Brent,
that orange and blue?
What do you think?
Who?
Who is Michael?
Are they trade them there?
Yeah.
Oh, I see.
I saw Brent.
Sutter is going to be inducted into their Hall of Fame.
Wow. Nice.
The Islanders Hall of Fame. There's some good players in that.
It's an interesting club. Mike Bossy's name coming up in the people to get to a thousand
points faster than McDavid. Eyebrow raising. A reminder.
Short, but dominant career. Yeah. And another one of those things, because we were talking with
Dwayne Sutter, he had a six four defenseman on his back all the time. Just water skiing,
slashing, whacking, 50 goals, 50 goals. I mean, it's crazy.
You can go and take a look at it. It's a good player.
Pinner, let's do it.
Actually, you know what I want to say our buddy Justin over at Vinova.
Go and check out the brand new location at Market Mall because now that the snow is coming
down, it's like, oh, well, I guess Christmas is because we're stupid.
Sometimes we need, you know, we wait to get our winter tires put on.
on until the snow comes.
We wait until it's really close to Christmas before we start buying Christmas gifts.
You don't need to be stupid.
Don't need to be.
Vina Nova takes away.
They'll help mitigate some of that stupidity.
Because they're there for you with their lab grown diamonds.
New market mall location opened earlier this month.
They want to thank the Barnburner community again for the support, easier access, better hours.
Love it for everybody over there.
and it's lab growing diamonds they're made in the lab they're pristine they're perfect and isn't that what you want to give the significant other in your life the lover your lover lava lava lava
you want to give some dirty dirty i think there's like a specka looks like rat poop and what is in this diamond
oh they dug it out of the ground well why would i give this to my significant my love a lover lover
I don't want to give my love of this.
It's got bird droppings in there.
Oh, probably.
It came out of the ground.
They dug it out of the ground.
What's something nicer?
Well, we have these here that they were made in a diamond lab and they wear coats and they're very, it's very clean and fancy and perfect.
Well, that sounds better to be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they're, and they're more affordable?
Yeah.
Well, that sounds stupid.
Yeah.
we're waiting for there to be a market correction, but for right now, the perfect ones are cheaper than the ones with the, the mouse poop in them.
Platteanova.com.
Market mall.
Check them out.
Christmas is coming.
Got about five weeks.
It's coming quick, Dean.
You know what we did here at the highs?
I said, somebody get a piece, a big piece of paper.
And then my, the woman that I live with ended up doing it.
Can you, can we just do like a, here's what's happening in everyone's life?
It's called a calendar, by the way, D.
I need to.
You don't even.
When are you?
New concept.
Yeah.
Write it down.
Oh, well, we're going to be.
Oh, yeah, Taylor Swift.
And write it down.
Oh, I've got to turn a minute.
Write it down.
Because if you don't, you're going to be sitting here like some other jack and ape who
waited until the snow hit the ground.
for his winter tires.
You're going to be, it's Christmas Eve.
I've not bought any.
I don't have any.
Don't be stupid.
Don't be stupid.
Don't be stupid.
Don't be stupid.
Blah, love, love.
Are they, so this is next weekend for the Ares tour or was this past weekend?
Because they're doing like six days in a row or something crazy.
Well, she, I think seven, seven shows at, like at the stadium, not the rink.
Yeah, no, the 50 plus.
thousand place yeah yeah uh the i think they're i don't know if it's three last weekend and then
they're two and two i'm not sure what it is but it's a big deal it's a big deal people very excited
about that some they were away yesterday which i was okay with but uh had to do uh wristbands or
whatever the oh the french at braced something yeah had to make a bunch of those because you don't
just make you don't make them you don't make them for yourself you make them and then you trade
them and you give them to other people.
So that's nice.
Sounds like camp.
There's,
there's outfits and cost, I don't know,
like they're wearing specific and special stuff.
Hey.
It's a club.
We're not invited, apparently.
Yeah.
It's all right.
It's all right.
You know what, though?
It's probably one of those things.
Oh, you're all cool.
I hear the show's flipping amazing.
Yeah.
It's three and a half hours.
How to flip, man.
I don't do anything for three and a half hours.
I wake up.
I mean, I got to get up.
up when I'm sleeping for three and a half hours. I can't do this anymore.
What you're saying is you could do nothing for three and a half hours. That's about it.
Well, even the nothing. Even nothing. That it starts to hurt.
Can you sing or what?
I get tight. It's like, I haven't moved in three hours and now. Oh, this is no good.
It's not good.
Fellas. The Honda Ridge Line. The convenience of an all-wheel drive pickup with the comfort
and smooth ride of a sedan. Car and Driver Magazine ranked the interior of the Ridgeline
in its class in terms of practicality and comfort.
And right now, get the new 2025 Ridgeline Black Edition
and get a $2,000 Honda bonus
and qualified Honda owners get an additional $2,000 loyalty bonus.
It's like they're begging you to do it.
Good idea.
Why resist?
Northwest Automal online at villagehonda.com,
our buddies at Village.
Ryan Pinda.
Rindindu.
Bring her the Pindraport.
All right, boys.
Well, it's been some time.
We talked about busy that schedule was five times and eight days and five cities and three time zones and three and four and back to back to travel.
Yeah, one game between the Tuesdays.
You saw it Friday.
Maybe it was Nashville.
And we've actually done a big rebranding.
I don't know if you guys saw the web.
It is now Wolf Nation, not Flames Nation.
We have multiple recaps of what's going on in Flamesland.
All of them featuring Dustin Wolf.
Goaltending duo first shutout, Wolf shutout.
He's become the story of the flames over the last week.
And if he starts tomorrow against the Islanders,
the second of this four game homestand,
it would be five of the last seven starts going to Wolf.
I can't see them going to Vlodar.
Just you've seen exemplary performances from both Lidar and Wolf
rewarded with the second straight start.
What do you guys feel?
I don't know what about Flash Stevens.
Flash.
We've got some flashing later.
That's the on the, he, she on the, are they on the,
payroll. I was not familiar that I didn't know.
We had flash.
F.S. I wonder about that.
I mean, you, you probably,
you definitely have a plan in place with the flexibility and the,
hey, I've got the power to deviate from this plan.
But I wonder how much this look,
if they set it out in September,
October, how different is the workload,
what we've seen now through 20 games as to what they had kind of
planned out at the start of the season?
They've only alternated from alternating.
twice. And it was coming off
great victories by a goal.
So that's kind of
why I think you'll see him on Tuesday.
Vladar had a shutout, played the next game.
Wolf just had a shutout.
They've also given him the softer
of matchups,
Rangers versus Islanders.
What arrows pointed at Wolf tomorrow, in my opinion?
I'd agree.
I would agree. Let's go to the standings.
Where are they at? What's going on? We'll start with
the West. Flamesfell
fellas.
Jeez.
It's a lot of games to play at 18.
Yeah.
All right.
Who's behind him that's coming up and is any of a problem?
Okay.
Colorado's in.
So boilers I'd expect.
And then you're in bubble pain.
It didn't take much to it.
I had some bubble pain in the weekend.
Did you?
Garlic or hot sauce or?
I don't know.
You know what?
I think it was too much meat.
Where were you?
There's not a bit.
Oh.
So sorry.
Told us all about Bruce
Grover, St. Albert. This place must
wherever you went this time must have been pretty high end. You don't want to
St. Louis? Just eat hamburger barbecue? What's going on here?
Very important. I'm a pretty important person. Here's the east.
Why am I showing you the East boys?
I don't know. Next eight games for the Calgary Flames, seven against Eastern
foes. Oh. Let's have a little peaks you here.
Islanders and Rangers they're next to. Hartford and Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh.
real high friend uh aisles as you can see uh they're there coming in outside of a playoff spot
rangers shisterkin panarin boo fox trouba it's good players there the friend you're coming into his
own and of course yeah they get other guys that scored 50 goals in the league like chris crider
i'll ask this sorry without knowing what the other team schedules are yeah do the islanders rangers
wild do they play the flames as the soft touch we've kind of talked about this you know
that you're starting your guy against the Oilers
and McDavid.
Vancouver, not great at home right now, but they're
are you still going to get the backup
treatment?
Islanders, you noted
we're out here last week. They played the Oilers
last week. They've been to Seattle. They're swinging
around. They will play Calgary after being off since
Saturday and then not again until the
Detroit Thursday. So you'll probably
see their best. We'll slowly
go through this.
Guess if you want. Which would be Sorokin.
guessing.
Yeah,
absolutely.
Is Wade
Dublevitt's still there?
It's Karlamov
still.
Yeah.
Is it not
noodles?
DiPietro and his
18 foot pads?
No.
Because we saw that
video of noodles as an
Islander there last week.
I believe he was not employed.
It was sensational
after that.
Yeah.
Rangers see Calgary
after Vancouver and before
Edmonton,
but no unusual rest day off
in between nothing too crazy there
and then Minnesota
they'll wrap the
homestand with their first meeting
against the wild have been off to a great start this year.
Goaltending, Faber, Caprizov, been a really nice start.
They come to Calgary, having played two days before in Evanton.
So they don't get the second half of a back-to-back under you.
Anyway, I just kind of thrown out.
Yeah.
You know what?
Ryan back to you.
Thanks, buddy.
Preach.
Let us move.
Alex Ovechkin doing Alex Ovechkin things.
Please observe.
39 years old with a half.
At a boy. Pretty good. Not a lot of guys since, you know, 1980, 81 have done that. Ovi at 39 years and 61 days. Joe Thornton, 39 in change. Shane Donne, 39 and change. Your Armory, Yager 42. Ageless wandered days away from his 43rd birthday, his last hat trick. Tamu did it at 40. Nick Lidstrom? Wow. At 40, New and I can Robitai also did it at age 39. So, impressive.
Not first time ever stuff. Go ahead, Dean.
I was going to say in addition, just he has 13 and 17 and has become the first player age 39 or older in NHL history to lead the league in goals outright or tied minimum 10.
This is kind of, he's also seven now, what, seven shy of his 20th, 20 goal season?
Yeah, I'm not worried about 20 for him.
that's uh by Christmas there it is all days youngest guy correction oldest guy to be leading the league in goals
minimum of 10 games it's a minimum of 10 goals it's uh yeah you see who he's tied with it's good company
sam reinhart can't miss pretty good talent who else is stuck at 13 stuck
cold coffee let up I just had it and blanked out I was like I'm not going to
Write this down.
I'm going to remember this.
Sure you are, stupid.
Dry side of the 17.
There it is.
Boomer told you just earlier.
Write it down.
Write it down.
If only you had some pens.
Got lots of different colors.
Black pen, J.T. Miller,
scratched.
He's in the lineup.
But how about his career low
in Vancouver for ice time?
Two shifts in the third.
That was it.
Yeah.
Rick Tockett, though.
I just one of the guys
that I thought could get us back in the game.
Oh, does that have anything to do with a J.T. Miller injury, Rick?
No.
God, he's blunt. I love him.
That's bad.
Yeah.
It's harsh.
They're still good, though, Vancouver.
I thought there seems like there's a bit of turmoil there, but.
Patterson's now going, but now JT. isn't.
Would you like to hear something?
Please.
And this is one of the thing I thought we talked about tomorrow, but we're in it.
they are six and one on the road.
Stellar.
Canucks.
They've lost seven of ten at home.
Three, four, and three on home ice
and have allowed at least five goals
and five of those ten.
Rocks are skitt.
What's that seasonally adjusted mental health?
Can't see the sun.
Are they doing too much of that hacky sackin down by the seawall?
Getting all high.
They're high.
They might play better.
Maybe.
Some depressed with them.
Chill out.
Talk it.
Have a gummy, dude.
I just thought we'd play some guys who were going to get us back into the game.
See, you read the quote.
You don't know how, you don't know what this context.
Context's important.
I don't know.
I just thought I'd play some guys that might get us back in it.
Here's the slate tonight's jackets at Bruins,
avalanche at Flyers, Oilers in Montreal.
We'll revisit that with our bet 365 bets later.
Interesting little trends showing up for that game.
Ducks and Stars, caps and Utes, and then the aforementioned Red Wings with Frank,
this could be a really nice rock bottom.
The team you gave Jake Wallman to with a second rounder in their house.
That could be fun tonight if you like paying.
Yeah, the wings are no good.
Nicket.
No good.
Everyone does love Stevie, but I think there's a lot of people asking questions all of a sudden.
What's going on there, Steve?
You've been there a while now.
Who is their coach?
I was going to say something.
It's not nice.
No, don't do that.
if you don't have something nice to say
it's probably
going to be set on Barnburner
probably how it's going to go yeah
Calgary Wranglers having a pretty good time
long stretch of games on the road
they were in San Jose on the weekend
they blew a lead last night
but did get the point for overtime
that's three of a possible four against the
Barracuda they'll keep traveling
through California in the desert
Barracuda
Dung do get a dump Pinder
which the barracuda yeah i think they play the shark tank
i believe you're right they do facility but there are some dumps i don't know that
bakerfield's nice yeah the barracuda you're right i was thinking it's san diego no it's nice
they dumped a bunch of money renovated it like 15 years ago yeah people rave about it they got
cheap beer night on friday it's a party let's go let's go san diego let's go beautiful place get
out of here the whales hell out of here yeah see world all that yeah
look at all the yellow fellows are on the road for a half month
I mean, they'll probably come home after Tucson, but still, they're, uh,
they're getting those air miles for boys, aren't they?
Nope.
Nope.
Those are all buss rides.
Ouch.
They're busing from Calgary to Tucson.
Son of a.
Terrible.
Oh, dear.
Tucson not spelled like how you'd think of be pronounced, eh?
Here's the thing, Devin Cooley boy slipping.
I know he's at a hot start, but look at this.
He gave up two goals.
Come on.
Come on, yes.
Two goals on the weekend.
That's right.
Say percent is down from 954 to 953.
Won't stand for it.
Come get your pick pink slip son.
You're done.
It was Walter Ignatjav in net last night.
Gross.
Come on.
He's a very nice guy.
You talk about you.
You like them.
You have a little swagger.
Almost like the empty netter in Penticton.
Oh.
Ew.
So good.
It sounds like the real guy.
NFL.
Another busy.
Sunday in the roof of mirror yesterday some classics, but here's something that had never
happened before.
Look at this.
Now it's on the internet.
It's got to be true.
No way I could fact check this.
Yeah.
Why bother?
Why would you?
Jordan Schultz says it's the case.
It's the Schultz report.
He's spent eight bucks a month.
You can't lie to us.
Uh, Joe Burrow, Pat Mahomes and Lamar Jackson all losing.
Never happened on the same week before.
Never happened.
Don't bother looking into it.
Didn't happen.
No.
Nope.
Never did.
Never.
And that's good news for Rick.
means his boy Josh Allen won.
We'll get to that in a sec.
Here's Joe Burrow, though, and the Bengals losses.
Like 18 to 2, how do you like that ratio?
Good.
Like that 2200 passing yards nearly.
Could we get this guy like a defense or an offensive line?
What are we doing here?
And I think Jamar Chase's numbers are about as gaudy.
They've had some bad beats for sure.
Oh, cheer for teams.
We don't want to have.
success. No one cares about Cincinnati. I do like Joe Burrow. I'm trying to get him out of there.
He's a rose weirdo with his dumb suits. Yeah, Marty loves the bank. I saw on Good Morning football.
Oh. What's her name? The host. I forget what her name is. Jan Erdo. Okay. She was saying,
let's take a look. So she took a side by side. It's here. Remember Burrow had the shaved,
kind of the blonde hair. Yeah. At the start of the year. Yeah, I mean, I'm looking at him. And then
looking at him now and he's still got just a little bit of the blonde left on the top.
Ross the tips.
I know about hair.
And he's trying to tell you that,
oh, it's just the blonde growing out.
I just haven't.
No, no.
You're frosting your tips, dude.
Oh, big time.
Yeah.
You're frosting your tips.
Don't give us this bullshit about,
oh,
I just haven't had I even cut it down yet.
It works.
We had a chat Saturday.
You would have loved it, Dean,
myself, retro and the shoveler,
all three of us,
basically in agreement he needs to frost his tips again.
Oh, really?
It works.
The hair is unbelievable.
What if you did like,
the Hogan stash beard, like go blonde with the handlebar and then black.
I've got a pickable tournament coming up next weekend.
Maybe.
It'll get kicked in the mouth.
Yeah.
We're doing a kicking if you got the Hulk outfit.
That's good.
Elsewhere.
You got the pythons.
Oh, big, I've been doing curls.
I'm in a gym right now.
Yeah, I see that.
Hey, yeah.
Yeah.
Merrick Thanksgiving, two weeks away in the NFL.
And look at this.
Like, talk about Cooper Rush, Tommy DeVito.
reconnecting families across the country
who would otherwise be ignoring each other to watch football.
Isn't that beautiful?
It's so good.
Classy.
Yeah.
And yeah, Danny Dimes is benched.
He's cooked.
He's three on the death chart today.
Hope he enjoyed your time in New York, son.
Tommy Cutlets.
He's back.
Until he's not.
Drew Locke's breathing down his neck, Dean.
Yeah, I kind of thought it was,
Locke was the guy.
And then I read this morning, DeVito.
Well,
cutlets.
You've seen some weird stuff signed.
Brett, what's the oddest thing you put a signature on?
Played the fifth.
Okay.
Well, here's Devonthe Adams.
I do, right?
Okay, there's a football.
There's a hamburger.
What the hell's going to?
I mean, it's one of one to the...
No, is there any meat in there?
Maybe he's carb conscious.
Some of them burger joints, nothing goes bad.
So it's fun.
Come on now.
Nice jacket, Devante. Wow, geez.
Rest of stuff.
Sign button.
get everyone to see it for it turns green
kind of happy they stink sign some buttons rat is that
that's that what I heard
did you see their record since they let Sala go
it's like one in five or whatever they are one and four
since they gun solid and the players are like yeah
our defense probably not as good as it was at the start
of the season wasn't a record breaking defense
yeah well he was their defensive guy
great and send fire me I guess let the 40 year old
quarterback run shit
you can bring his friends in.
That'll make things better, right?
Any more friends left?
No.
Ah, shoot.
Let's go to the big game north of the border as BC place was bumping, fellas,
for the Argonauts and the blue bombers.
Well, hang on.
Let's start with the positive before anyone takes any runs at the CFL here.
Let's give them credit for an incredible night that we'll all remember forever because of one
of the greatest streakers we've seen in the last five to ten years.
I don't know if anyone's seen this video, but it's exceptional.
and really want to congratulate the streaker on giving Great Cup 111, something we'll never forget.
Was it John Bender?
That is not John.
And that is the one moment, a flapping fur jacket covered all the things we need to cover to show you this photo.
Did you see this or no?
No, I did not see it.
Oh, my goodness.
Pender's watches it for hours.
Turns around, trips, falls over, big spill, gets up, drops the phone, son is around.
The security slowly walk up.
Like in the U.S., they'll absolutely break your arm for streaking.
She got to do a little twirl there.
And then they even let her put her jacket on before she was escorted out.
Unbelievable stuff.
So it's a lady?
It's a lady.
That's hair flying that.
Yeah.
She's a lady.
She's a lady.
She,
yeah.
On the other side, there were some forgettable moments.
I think the CFL has got a new trophy.
The MVP of the game.
game gets well that whatever that is um very is it's a soap stone is that a soap scope what do we
got here soap scope that's uh the reference that's the size of james the three year olds like
yeah that's mine where's daddies yeah congrats Nick Arbuckle former stamp yeah there's
a lot of former stamps over there.
Yeah.
I don't know if you saw this morning, but
former NFL running back.
Had a really nice run of four years here.
It's not
mincing words about where the issues
lied in Calgary. Oh, dear.
Yeah. You know,
you can't say anything nice.
You just won the Great Cup. It doesn't
have to be about Calgary and getting
that final shot in. You can go celebrate
with your boys. Say that.
Move along.
everyone enjoyed their fight on Friday, I'm sure.
Because it definitely was a fight
and it definitely was in high resolution.
To be fair, when I played
Mike Dyson's punch out on Nintendo
Entertainment system, it kind of looked like this.
It was exactly
what we all feared it could be, which was
an incredibly awful con job
of ludicrous
proportions. I'm suggesting
it might have even been worse than McGregor Mayweather,
which was an absolute
heist of people's money, the only difference.
We were already already paying for Netflix, I suppose.
I still think McGregor was trying to win in that fight at least.
I didn't see a lot of trying in any of those two fights or any of the four fighters.
There was no trying in this one.
No.
That's for sure.
And that's kind of a premise of martial arts is actually trying to hit your opponent.
Well, and it's sad because I've been a proponent of if you two are arguing with each other,
we should
politicians, you want to argue?
Getting right.
Sorted out.
No, Jack,
had an idea on the weekend.
Jack,
you turn your mic,
tell us what you were,
you were marinating on here
because I think it's a great idea.
If we can just have fights
and no one actually tries to hurt each other,
why the hell can't we get in on this
absolute,
you know,
windfall of cash?
Yeah,
I was saying you,
boom and Pender,
we should set up a fight
and we'd probably sell up the dome.
It seems simple enough.
It seems simple enough.
It's wanting to throw at each other.
No one has to try.
We'll just take the money
and everyone's going to be like,
yeah,
well,
the money too and no one's even mad at them. If I got you two in a ring, you're not getting out.
You get us in the cage, you're just going to lock it. Bye. Yeah, you're done. I was so angry.
I was not sober, but I was angry. I just thought this was so pathetic. And this is one of the main
reasons boxing is so dead is that this is what all the promotional effort goes towards.
And this will be a lot of people's first boxing match you've ever seen. You're like, so people care about
that, huh? Hmm. All right. Now, catch.
yourself a little bit what did they bring in what's 60 million they got paid between two of them
if that's your okay yeah so they got paid what at netflix what did the see the the ticket seller
yeah a lot of people made some serious oh here and how many people watched well didn't they say it was
tons but this my point is that you might be mad about it and you don't like the the competition
and the lack of compete or whatever the the ridiculous
of it.
They're going to do it again and guess what?
You know what, though?
And this, because if he fights Mayweather, people are going to
friggin watch it.
But there is some kind of a statute of limitations.
Okay, well, you fought this guy who's not a fighter.
All right.
You fought an MMA guy.
And then so it's Tyson who looked at being great shape and you watch all the videos.
To the point that it was it, was it baked?
Was it, you know, is it a fix?
Mike did not try and hit him.
and in fair, he didn't really try and hit Mike.
They were all very much at arm's length.
To the point, you could, you could buy it if somebody said it was,
it was a con job.
We're going to go to the distance and no one gets hurt.
Yeah, and I'm not disputing its popularity.
What I'm saying is a lot of people will feel burnt and say bleep boxing.
I'm out for the next one.
I think a lot of people just do the same thing, especially when it's free on Netflix.
Yeah, there is that.
I mean, which is, I guess it's not free, but do you know,
You're not coughing up a hundo.
That would be the other thing.
I'm curious, well, they did a good job, right?
Mike looked good and he was back and everybody wants Jake Paul to get knocked the F out.
How much Jake Paul willing to, I mean, he might have enough money now where he's like, I don't need to.
He's got tons.
My point was like, if he's going to get 50 million, are you going to risk getting knocked out?
Well, why would he fight anyone that's good?
He doesn't have to clearly.
And it doesn't have to be him.
Like, he's a tool, but he's not a, he's not a.
He's a good businessman. No, no, he's a good businessman. And no one's saying these aren't good
businessmen. What we're saying is this is why the credibility of the sports in the shitter.
But that's not, sorry, I'm defending boxing, but that's not boxing.
I agree. I feel like there are good cards. It's just that those ones don't get attention.
That's sort of what I'm sad about. I was, I got, yeah, I was texting front and just it's like a
side show event, right? It's, yeah, carnival type thing. If you want to buy things to see the bearded
lady. People love seeing stupid.
shit.
Hence the Pender report.
I mean, really.
And the thing is, like his bet,
Jake, he's just good enough
a boxer to make it look
like he can box.
You know what I mean?
You had tens of millions of dollars
and you trained for five years and you went to someone
and said, make me into the best boxer you can make me?
I'd hope you'd be able to beat up a near six-year-old guy
with a seizure eight months ago or whatever the hell.
There's natural ability in all sports and stuff.
But boxing is the same as you can train for it.
Yes.
If you want it.
Yeah.
Oh, you're going to compensate me 50 Schmell?
I'm going to put some time into this.
Yeah, I'm going to, okay.
So I'd almost, we'd almost rather watch two people that don't know how to box.
Get in there and let's go.
You can do that and it's online.
Yeah.
And they're usually in a, there's some bales.
There's the bales.
We could have that kind of event too.
But I watched it.
I did.
I got, yeah.
Of course, I bet on it.
I was in.
I bet on it too.
People love watching stupid shit.
That is the thing.
And with that in mind, back to the ladders.
We had a long spell without ladders, Dean.
But yes.
Got to get back to the, got to play the hits, guys.
Yeah, you got to play.
Back into the wheelhouse, ladders and snakes, all the good stuff.
Here we are.
Let's take a look.
See, that's plot twist, Dean.
Wasn't the ladder.
God.
Pick the power drill in the forehead.
Oh.
Oh.
I think he forgot it was up there.
See, this is why ladders get a bad name.
There's nothing to do with ladders.
Yeah, that was not about ladders.
Ouch.
Sorry.
Damn.
Now, risk reward.
Red talks about it with his kids.
What'd you do, bud?
Stap myself with a knife.
Risk reward.
Was it worth it?
Mm-mm.
How about this?
Is this worth it?
This seems high.
I don't like heights.
A lot of altitude here.
And, yeah, there's not a.
Jesus.
People praise Tom Cruise for doing his own stunts.
Hire this guy.
Hare this guy for he's gone.
Yeah, he ain't last long.
You got to have anything.
Clearly you've got nothing to live for if that's your.
It's so sad.
I can't believe.
What do you mean?
You can't believe it.
I can believe it.
He was jumping from buildings in a single bound until he didn't.
Now, this is good.
Speaking of jumping from buildings in a single bound.
Wait to let this all play out and really soak in the audio here, Dean.
This is, uh, it looks like some sort of apartment building in Florida.
A.I.
Cool.
There's a gentleman up top, contemplating.
Big splash.
Keep sound up.
Hey, man.
You gotta stop doing that stupid shit.
Ah, it's Tuesday.
That idiots jumping off the roof again into the pool for four stories.
Man.
Let me do it here.
Dude.
I just want to feel alive.
You just keep jumping in the lake, rat.

If you look in the bottom right corner, you're humming.
There's 148 clicks, red.
Slow down.
And then, oh, dear.
Nice.
Oh, yeah, they are.
Well done.
Yeah, stuck the landing.
Nice work, correct.
You said coming north, does there more traffic?
Yeah.
Yeah, this was headed south, so there was some openings for me to weave out of,
weave in and out of, so all the way back, no options.
Well done.
Nice.
I met
I was introduced
to my mortal enemy
on the weekend
this ass hat in San Francisco
is a Bay Area super fan
who claims to have invented
the wave
that's an easy self proclamation
like what
I'm back into this
fake fighting thing
let's let's sell out the dome
I just turd up to Calgary
let's go
crazy George
you're going to fight crazy George
wasn't there a crazy George
in BC big Lions fan
and he had the drums
there's lots of crazy George's
this guy I mean
If Jake Paul can fight guy's 30 years older than him, this guy's not 30 years older than me.
Maybe he is, whatever.
Whop your ass.
Ryan, I'm telling you right now, if you want to get into a fight with someone, I will help in any way possible.
And you get crazy, George, to Calgary?
I'll do whatever it takes.
This guy costs Wolf a shout out last week on Monday.
Yeah, George.
Ass.
Keep moving.
Invented the wave.
I'm going to get on social media and just start putting just stuff.
Go to your Wikipedia page.
Brett Warner, invented democracy.
Wow, that's a incredible invention.
Well done, man.
Traveled, first person
to cross the Atlantic. Amazing.
It's like in curb.
Mike Rampa invented the Cobb salad.
Oh, Bob Cobb at the Brown Derby restaurant.
Raccoons are adorable.
Raccoons.
No.
So cute.
Ricky on trailer park boys calls him Rekins.
That's what Jack spells it as well.
But this is a raccoon.
Let's take it.
You're so stupid, Jack.
garbage is right there.
It looks like a little
Hollywood cracked.
A puppy.
That's
threatened like that.
Patient.
Again,
sharp teeth.
Who could have seen it coming?
What do you just like more?
Snakes or spiders, Dean?
Well, I'm going to see both.
So just roll the clip.

Help out.
Bet 365.
The world's largest sports betting platform.
form. I was on it a lot yesterday. I won't lie to you.
There were some games doing a little bit of this, right? It's like,
oh, big lead. Oh, is it going away? Oh, look, here come the Bengals. What's going to
happen. Can they hang? Who, who, who? Download the app. Use the promo code nation when you
sign up. Huge range of markets. It's not a tons. So they got hockey and football.
Yeah, no, no, everything you've ever heard of. Stuff you haven't even heard of. Yeah. I,
like Red said, I was, we were in on.
the fake fight the other night.
Yeah.
Fight the last three and a half rounds. Jake Paul win?
Yes, please.
Winner.
Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at bet 365.
Let's take a look, see.
That's all I was going to hone in on Oilers Habs.
This is your Amazon game of the night.
Two Canadian teams always fun.
Now, starting with a tie.
This sounds like an odd bet.
It is big game hunting.
Why would I think there's going to be a tie?
while friends, the last three
Edmonton Oilers games
have all gone to overtime.
Oh.
What about the last two times they played the Montreal Canadiens, Dean?
Well, they also have gone
to overtime. We'll see if that
odd trend sticks for one more
night and if it does a healthy
plus 375,
the Oilers and Habs, get past
regulation. Also, Leon Driesidal,
it's six of the last eight games. He's hit two points.
He's been on an absolute tear. This was
plus 170 last week.
So the ons makers are starting to pay attention.
But plus 125 for a two point dry saddle.
I keep hitting it until it stops working.
Let's go.
Not to put you on the spot, but where does that compare to a McDavid two plus points?
He's minus like 150.
Right.
It's not even close.
So it's a big swing for a guy that gets about the same number of points.
If McDavid has two, Leon probably has two as well.
They are somewhat tied at the hip.
Power play production, same line a lot of the time.
All that stuff.
Yeah.
Very nice.
Hot tear from Leon.
And, of course, we got a football game tonight.
Do we have a feel on the footballs tonight?
Um.
One team's good and one team's terrible.
Yeah, one team's pretty good, I think.
Yeah.
And the other team doesn't feel like they're any good at all.
That would lead me to believe that the line is a significant line.
Yeah, we're, because I think actually we do our.
picks. I think I'm on this one tonight, which is why we can't do our picks yet.
Yeah, it was seven and a half when you made the pick. It's now down to seven. The Houston
Texans are in the house of the chair built. You're getting seven and a half because you picked
Friday. I'll give you the seven with that. Hardly seems fair.
They're going to blow the doors off the Cowboys. They're absolute trash. So you don't have to
sweat this line here. That's my feel on this. Loser buys pizza. I love this pizza bed thing.
that Rhett's like this is freaking fantastic.
Oh.
I love it a lot.
Points,
Rhett?
Yeah, I love it a lot.
Yeah, Jack, who we get,
just get some pizza bets going.
Come on,
Jack, I'll have a bet with you.
No problem.
You owe me.
All right, let's do.
What do you want to bet?
You owe me.
You owe me.
I lost that bet.
Now, you owe me losing a bet.
Yeah.
You'll be the opportunity to get it back.
That's right.
All right.
What do you want to bet?
Pizza.
Okay.
What side are you taking?
Such a dope.
Are we doing tonight's game?
Let's do every Thursday game and then Friday will.
All right.
Ready pizza?
Dealers are the Thursday night or this week.
If we have the patience,
Jack will be so bent out of shape by Thursday for this game against the Browns.
It's going to be unbelievable.
I'm going to take advantage of his excitement.
So tonight it is, it's an even seven.
Cowboys at home to the Texans.
Is Nico Collins back?
He was removed from the injury list.
Right?
Yeah.
And Mixon has got at least a game under his belt.
And Tankdale had a pretty good game last week.
I don't want that guy to do good.
This just screams.
It's too easy, right?
Yeah.
Kind of like when we saw 14 points for Detroit against Jacksonville.
Yeah.
That's a lot of points.
How about that?
Is there any part of that?
Because what it was, Jameson Williams dives into the end zone grabbing his crotch.
doing the
DeMarshan Lynch.
It's like 35 to 6.
And they weren't even close to done.
Maybe.
Yeah, I think 52.
Is that what the end was?
52 sticks or something like that?
They ended up with 52 points.
The Jaguars less than a touchdown converted.
Is there any party that worries about the football gods that
you're just flexing a little too hard that it's going to come back and get you in the
Tuckus?
My concern is not surrounding.
the Lions.
The Jaguars are straight shit.
Yeah, they don't look at.
Trevor Lawrence is supposed to be their savior.
Oh,
best quarterback prospects since Peyton Manning.
Like,
he's a guy.
He's hurt.
Like,
are they just always going to be bad?
Can this,
is this team allowed to be good?
They're moving to the CFL.
They're going to be.
That's exciting.
Hey?
Get relegated.
Yeah.
Well,
what's like a few years ago,
their defense was really good and it's like,
they got this Lawrence.
He's going to.
Yes.
Alan.
Yes.
Yeah,
Josh Allen.
Allen.
Allen, who added a hyphenated last name.
Hasn't worked out.
No.
I do you have a nog update for you, Rhett, if we're ready to move on.
Just, is there anybody who's tempted to take the seven with the home side?
Seven seems light.
You really do.
Right?
Cooper Rush guys.
It's not like it's Dak.
Dax healthy seven feels fair.
Yeah.
I'll do chicken.
I'll take the Cowboys.
Seven.
Oh, you're.
Get out.
Jack, are we in?
Or does someone else make the bet?
You don't want chicken.
Anyway, sorry, right.
There you go.
Bet 365.
Have fun like us.
Look at this.
Look at the Tom Foolery we're having here.
Wouldn't you like to be just like us?
Bet 365, all kinds of sports.
It's right there on your phone.
The app is awesome.
Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at bet three, 65.
When you download the app and sign up, use the promo code nation.
You threw it out there.
We're in Calgary.
There's theoretically, lots of,
a great dairy around.
You'd cows everywhere.
Nog, festive season, holidays.
Yeah, yeah.
We need a good Christmas nog.
And you'd mention it, and I blanked, not thinking.
The Ship and Anchor, one of the more famous pubs in the history of the city, does an annual eggnog that is entirely to benefit charity.
And I'm back channeling us to get maybe a couple bottles.
So a reminder, get your Christmas nog, goes to a great cause.
And there is great nog in the city.
we will have more in your hands soon, Red.
Shoveler bought some yesterday.
I actually told her,
don't bother with that.
Because it's subpar.
He thought there was no good dog in the city.
We're on a mission to prove them wrong.
I like that.
Yeah, I like that.
You ever heard of the radio show Opie and Anthony?
It was kind of,
they were based in New York.
They were on New York radio,
and then they were on XM for a long time.
and then somehow kind of got canceled,
even though they were on satellite.
Anyway,
the one year,
it was called the baby bird.
And they had one,
it was at Christmas.
So they would,
they would,
careful.
So they get set up in the studio.
There'd be a dude sitting in a chair,
and there's garbage bags all around.
And there'd be one other large gentleman.
And he would drink egg dog.
smut
eggnog
until he would
vomit
and then
baby bird
would open his mouth
okay
for the
Jack
it's on the internet
if you want to
probably if you search
Opie Anthony
baby bird eggnog
dude drank a lot of eggnog
and somehow
it feels like
more eggnog
came out of him
than he drank
oh dear
I don't know how it was possible, but it was really something.
See, you're at.
Have a good day.
We'll chat tomorrow.
Great show, guys.
No, there's more to do yet.
Just hang on.
But I like that.
Like some eggs,
you know, eggnog.
Yeah.
So are you saying you want to do this?
You can be the good.
No, no, no.
It's just kind of whatever I hear eggnog and we're talking.
Oh, boy, remember that eggnog challenge thing.
That was no good.
Can I ask a question?
If I're sneezes.
Letter Buck.
Don't hold that in.
I blocked that one.
I don't know how.
Did you?
Do we like the eggnog
with the booze,
boozy eggnog?
Yes.
Yeah.
It's got to be done right.
We've had it in the studio before
and it was delicious.
Yeah.
Really?
Nice.
It's a nice drum.
One of my favorite things at Starbucks
used to be an eggnog latte.
And I don't,
five years ago,
four years ago,
he's like,
where's the eggnog latte?
What are we doing here?
We got gingerbread this and
peppermint snap that and all
this you got all these other things no eggnaug latte what the h it's not like you don't have
dairy in there we got creams and they have it in the states all the time my wife would slap the
s out of you and tell you how much sugar's in those things well i mean tasty i bet i'm pretty
aware yeah it's guilty pleasure but uh do we not like is it i can't i'm just trying to think
is it because they weren't selling them was it not a popular item i find it hard to believe
I find it hard to believe.
I think it's one of the...
Hmm.
Shoveler won't be happy if they're not out there.
And if you do, if they have them somewhere,
maybe they have some other places.
I just know what's the one place you was going to.
