Good morning, Rhian. Jack, lovely to see you. Lovely to see you too. Hey, Jack. Hey, Ryan. How you doing? I'm doing well. Who's this GVM over by Dean's seat? I'm not familiar. Take a look at his shot there. Let's get the great video maker. It's a light. Dean's Seats. That's a nice light. It's the light of our life. It's a game day and this show is a presentation of Bet365. Make sure you download the app and enter

that code nation. It's never ordinary. I bet 365 Calgary Flames will take on the Anheim Ducks tonight. We're worried about this one. You are worried about this one. I mean, I played tough last week with you saying, well, they would never.

There's eight points available. What's that goalie's name? Well, Dostal, he's really good. Gibson's hurt again. Gibson had diarrhea. And by the way, if you want to get involved in the program. Super chats. As always a great way to do so, attach monetary value

to any comments live in the YouTube chat. We'll make sure it gets around on the show today. It all supports the youth centers of Calgary. A safe place for kids after school. Hot meal. Play with friends. Maybe you're playing chess or backgammon. You have a particular board game you like. We've been into Catan.

I'm good at all. Your board games typically. A guru? I excel. Any and all. So you're like the jigsaw outlaw is boomer he's with puzzles he's a puzzler he's a puzzler i'm a gamer okay either way but not a hooper or dimer either way whatever the kids are doing after school at the you centers of calgary we uh thank them for that and all your super chat money we'll head there

oh that's a bit of a grimace oh hi guys oh dean hey guys welcome back hey bill good to see you back to you dean everything all everything's fine yeah right everything great great How great? Things are great. Bad? But they're so good. You know what? They're so good.

You look so good. So good. Matchy matchy. You're a big date today? Big fella. No. Go to Flambas. Me and the Italian special.

No, no. Not today. Not today. Fellas. We already did the gets. Did you do the bet three six five? Yeah. And we did the new centers.

Yeah. Did you do the super chats? I don't know if you play the horn? Do we say helmets? Yeah, like, like, horn, Super chat. Get into the old super chat.

You centers, Calgary money, good stuff, messages on the show. Pwap, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay. Get your helmet on.

Yeah, And I said I was worried about the bagotty. Because he was playing tough. Tough, like last week, well, flants would never come out flat. I believe. He was just like, Peter,

you're not anatholic. You know, what do you mean? Human nature? You're going to dominate these teams. You're still talking. So he said. That's kind of what I said,

which is also true. I've done it. They're four for four in points. Yeah. It was pretty, but I'm worried about that goalie they got. Not Gibson, the hurt bag,

the other guy. Well, the other guy. Billy played the last game. Lucas Dostal. That guy. He, he's good.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What did he, what did he end up doing the other day? He had 45 saves. It's a lot of saves against the, the oilers.

We're not generating 45 shots. No, no, the mighty oil. That's, that's equal. Flames are three and all against the ducks this year. Oh, they're looking. They're looking. Is that right?

What's that? They're looking, I see. They've scored 11 goals in those three games have the flames. Okay, so more than three games. Very good. That's good. All right.

For you guys, that's great. So do they have six in one? No. One came in overtime. We'll take it. I'm trying to, I'm trying to flip the script. Don't be, you know, don't, the flames at the Honda center.

Remember, it couldn't win. Couldn't go there to win. Couldn't do it. Nine and one in their last 10 visits. Tables have turned, Dean. Tables that, you know what? They've shifted their focus. They've shifted.

So it's guaranteed win, night. I'm just saying, don't be apprehensive. Don't be, uh, whatever he are. They've taken care of business. Uh, if you asked us seven minutes into the third period against the sharks if they're taking care of business, you would have got a different answer, but, uh, they got around to taking care of business. Here's the thing. At this point, right now, Bogotis, don't care about style points. All you have left is Bogotty. There's no process points. We are, it's, it isn't November. This is all about results. And I'm worried about the results. I'm worried about the results.

Okay. Although in my brain, I was thinking about this this morning. Every year in every sport, there's a, there's a drive to make it, right? Or a tense or a battle for the last spot, right? Sure. Isn't there? Sure, yeah, like a playoff chase.

Yeah. Last year, Detroit came right down to it. And out east, there's not going to be. No, no. So that's all. In fairness, it's been a good chase for the last month. Montreal and that the whole thing. Yeah, but it's not.

It's not going to be down to the wire. No, it's not. coming down to the wire. So this. Jack's Penguins lost game 82 a couple years in a row to knock it in. Yeah. They lost to Chicago and not allowed the Panthers to get in with less points in the flames and go to the cup final.

Fun league. Yeah. So, so what do you say? So because there's no. I can't remember, but yeah. I was saying that it's inevitable that Friday night's going to be a massive game.

It's a banger. So Bogotti tonight, good vibes, positive vibes. It's right. Maybe I should get tickets for Friday. You guys want to be. go no I'm a lot of people he was already talking take jack these guys were talking about tickets

well they're rich I guess these guys I guess so see I'm surprised to have this for hear this for you because if if pitterbin I or me I don't know you'd be you soft bunch of pussays I got your shit I'd be you be giving it to us because when we did the win loss O T shoot it's like sound was like when anaheim when you were very emphatic you were very confident about the goalie I want Gibson in. What if it's who so? Veele? Then I'm not as

worried. I don't have confirmation. I didn't do my rounds last. I know. Last night. First time in a while. Even though the wife's out of town. Yeah.

Not canvassing your legs. Now listen, the ducks, they, uh, throwing it out. Much like San Jose have some good young talent.

They're not quite yet a good young team. They have good young players. You look at Ottawa. You know, maybe they're a good young talent. team. The Marr-R-Ur-S game? Yeah, they kind of remind you auto of like three,

four years ago where you're like, I can see why this team will be good, but they certainly aren't yet. Them or us game? I mean, I take the flames in a seven-game series today. I think this roster, moving forward,

I'm talking about, okay, here's the keys to two franchises. It's Anna. Based, if you're just purely on personnel. Well, Wolf here. You do have Walt,

but they got Dossus had a great year, too, so I'd give you a slight edge with Wolf, but they've already got three, four, really young, defenseman incorporated and three or four really good young players and they actually have centers. So why? We got our buddy. Do we have the bet three six five for tonight?

It's preckin? No, we don't. I can grab a quick. Well, don't worry about it. If we had it, I get up. You sure.

Get to throw it up. You sure. We got our buddy. We got our buddy. It's more distracting than it's worth. We got our buddy. Oh. As you would call him the noodler.

Like when he comes on out to say anything. The noodler's seen a lot of bad sense hockey. And he'll be conflicted because on one hand, they lost last night. But on the other side, they're punched their ticket to the playoffs. I wonder how he's feeling about it. Is he excited, though?

He might be pissed off. That means more work for him. I think he likes it regardless. He's don't know that, like, because he's at TSN, and they won't have any playoff stuff. Oh.

But he'll be probably doing more desk work, I guess, but still, like there's no post games. There's no TSN's regional stuff ends at the end of the end. He's so popular, though. He's doing radio and he's how he's in there. Two of the Insider. We go. It's a presentation of crystal waters, plumbing and heating.

you know a a kit like it's cove mixed or whatever so So there was like some unique flavors in there. There was a raspberry. So I'm going to try it out. It tastes pretty good. Nice. And Pinder, you're right. I'm going to tell people this all the time.

I call Ottawa Senator games. I love the organization, love a lot of the players, the really good guys. I've gotten to know them over the years. But being in broadcasting and calling a game, as long as I don't swear on air, I sleep well at night. I, whether they lose or win or whatever, I go back to my room, I watch other games, and that's it. So I'm happy for the Ottawa Senators organization, obviously, because it's, you know, I do 50 other games. And like I said, Dave Poulins and dear friend, Steve Stales, I played with, you know, I love Brady Kuch and Tim Stutzler. I think they're really good guys and good players.

But I have friends throughout the league. You guys know I have a soft spot for the Flames. Obviously, with, you know, you guys and Peter Hanlon being my best friend. Well, we found it last year. You love the Oilers. No, I don't love the Oilers. I found out last year that I, a lot of my friends actually love the Oilers, but I actually liked their team last year.

I thought their team was a pretty good team. I still think they actually, if they get healthy, you never know. But that L.A. team is pretty solid. Like that's it. And I look at some out west teams. But I heard you talking about Anaheim. I heard you talking about San Jose and Anaheim's, you can't sleep on them. That's the like for tonight.

Like that's the thing. They're not playing for lots. They're loose. You're right. Lucas Dostell, if you look at his goal saved above expectation, I believe he's top five. Is he not Pinder? Like he's in Walth would be in that same category, like top 10 guys, depending on how the last few games have gone. And, you know, they got young talent.

Like Anaheim's going to be a force probably within. two, three years that that cutter. What the hell is his name? Cutter. Mason McAvish has been over a point of game here for the last 20 some odd games. He's just Carlson's still a teenager? Like they're

there. There. And the thing is too is apparently so I've talked to the guys, the broadcasting team and stuff apparently their owner's unbelievable. Like he just his hands off and allows the manager to be the manager and apparently he's got deep pockets

so it's not going to like if he wants suspend to the cap and add to this group. It would be interesting. I would look at Anaheim as a team that might add this summer to try and round out their group. I still think San Jose might be the best out of all of them when it's all said and done. I really, that's all really really special. And, you know, Smith and they've got some good players. And if the goalie, the Russian carry price gets his act together, the Asker off. Yeah. He's good. They're going to pick the top three again. Like that's the thing with the sharks. So like yeah we dip down for one year and got a star like no no you're going to have like a large group of young studs.

That'd be another one too and off the top of my head I don't know the number but we were like with Buffalo they they are going to miss the playoffs and that's now what 14 straight years and we just talked about teams but seven years or eight years even in san Jose you knew it was coming because Doug Wilson went all in and we're bringing in Carlson and we've got the old boys and we're going to try and push this through and then almost beat st. Louis Eric Carlson's limping around and And then the blues ended up winning the cup. I don't think they've been back since. Yeah, it's been a long haul. But you look at it, there has been a long haul. I've always felt that San Jose were the Toronto Maple Leafs of the West. Yeah. You know, really good.

Everyone loved them, you know, cup contenders and stuff. They never got it done for years. And then there was some dissension. He took the captain away, all of that type of stuff. And but they were always a good team. And I always bet on them. And I was like, God, they're good and regularly. And then they just couldn't get through.

But I look at some of these teams now, and you're like, okay, you can make a pathway or a case. I could actually make a case and a pathway for the flames to make the playoffs. I was going to just say, you're a smart guy, eh? You were just saying, you know who I really? This was just, I'm kind of paraphrasing before the show. I'm really happy that Jamie is coming on today. You didn't even know I was coming on the show. I'm very happy that Jamie will be joining us in the program today.

It sounds like what Red says, too. He doesn't know what day is. The one thing that I really respect about Jamie, James, I think maybe he called it. The one thing I really respect about James is just his in-depth knowledge and ability to converse with the listener and the audience. We've been kind of doing a win loss. We've been trying to, because there's math. Yes. And there's probabilities and there's home and this whole thing.

Let me hear pinders first because he's. usually measured with the numbers. No, I just, because the flames have five games left. I said all long, 95 and you're in. Okay. Is that a fair assessment?

Traditionally, that's a good number. We'll see. The AI, you told us AI said 93. That's fine. Who am I to argue with AI? But I'm going to be right. 95 is tough. It might be 96. Don't show, don't show the wild card yet. Can we do the schedule? Let's do this. Because we're going to play. This is our game.

When? Loss. or maybe a point. Yeah. Win loss or maybe a point with Jamie McLennan. Win against San Jose. Now, we all called that. Yes. Worst team in the league, you better do that.

Tonight, now you can win, loss or maybe a point. Anaheim. I got to say win, it's a must win. I'm sorry. It's a must win for the Calgary Flames tonight. You have to win because then you can smell it against Minnesota Friday. Like, that's the biggest thing. That's Friday's the biggest game of the season if you win tonight.

And you have to win tonight. It's a winnable game. Anaheim will be kind of sitting fat and happy that they beat Edmonton the other day, even though the goal he made, what, 48 saves or whatever it was. But they've got timely goals. And, you know, that Goethe is a player. McAvish is a player. They've got some players there.

But Calgary should be the desperate team. The problem is, and this goes back to Rhett, you and our day, is the team stinks in Anaheim, did they not? They won 9 and 10 there, so that ship is sailed. Okay, so good. And we're calling them, by the way,

the bagati, biggest game of the year. This is like Bogotty 10. Yeah, this is about the 10th. All right, let's start to happen. Okay, so we got, so you win. When? I say win.

You guys are saying get a point. And then Friday. Friday is Hawaiian shirt day. It's also the Minnesota Wild. The team you're trying to catch. Yes. The team in your crosshairs. Oh, but you can loss or maybe a point.

I'm saying win. I say the next two games are wins. That's massive huge. Oh my God. The next two games are wins. Actually, I'm sure. Oh, let's go. Let's go.

All right. The next three are wins and have to be wins. San Jose, two on Sunday, the 13th. Three in a row. That means they've won four in a row, Dean. They're running the table. No, no. because then

Okay, so. Including the San Jose game, it's four. It would be four in a row, but here's the thing. Vegas, L.A. Now, here's something creepy. Here's my thoughts, okay? I think they get one of those games, Vegas or L.A.

because L.A. or Vegas will be resting players. Keep in mind, you're not going to get those teams best potentially, okay? but the sad part is, is I'm calling it, but they might beat Vegas, but they might lose to San Jose at home. One of these things is going to be like, that's a slam dunk win and it's not. Because if they win in Anaheim tonight and they have a huge game against Minnesota on Friday, they might take their foot off the couch and go, that's just San Jose. We got these two points.

We're looking ahead to Vegas. And that's where they come up short on a Sunday. that's what scares me for this group. If you're asking me to be honest and look at that, there's going to be a disappointing loss in there somewhere. All right. So you're saying with five games left, they're going four and one or three,

three one and one? Three one and one. I think there's a point somewhere to be had. But it just, I say Anaheim win. I say Minnesota win. San Jose should be a win, but that might be the,

hey, we pissed one away at the end and got a point. And then, you know, Vegas and L.A., I think you win one of those games. All right. So let's do the math. So three wins. Three times two is six. Okay, what is it? Six and then plus one. An overtime is seven.

Seven. Seven. And that's where we are at. So let's go to the standings. Let's go to the standings. So seven points added to the flame's current total will bring them. Ninety four. Son of them. God. Yeah.

A.I said 30. A.I. said 93. ABA is right. Yeah, I said 95. That means, but that we've been playing this game. Minnesota only has to win one game. If we'll pay all the can do. The thing is that Minnesota has the tie break.

So any number that Minnesota you think will comfortably get to, you got to be one better. Jack. They've got Anaheim, San Jose, and Dead Canucks team and the Flames. Let's be honest for something. If they go 500, that puts them at 95. And they have the tie break, which means the flames have to get to 96. The flames will probably have to get to 96. 95, it's an asshole number.

Jamie, we've been trying for two weeks straight here to figure out. And we've been squinting a little bit. It's like, okay, so nine in a row, they can do it. Sure, yeah. Well, if you make that, if you take the OT law, if you go four and one, you can get to 95 the problem being Minnesota needs two wins to get to 95 and you're and they got sharks in the

decks and the Canucks. The Canucks will be tough though because Calgary plays many on Friday night and that will be a highly emotional must win kind of thing for both third and four days. It's a back to back and it's a back to back to back. I think the Vancouver game is a tougher game for

Minnesota than the Friday game. Well Vancouver might have a bit of juice for what they did last night too right? You know? That is crazy. We have going to talk to it yet, but, uh, that was, that's, because I, I, I called the game in Columbus last night and I had a 6 a.m. flight, so I wanted to get a bit of sleep. And, and I, uh, I went to bed going, okay, Dallas is rinsing them, like, I can shut this one off. And I wake up and I'm like,

I'm seeing this right. Like, you know, you wake up four hours later. You're like, is that right? You know, I always like that's not right. And then, and then, and then I, I'm seeing, you know, I'm seeing, like, you know, see something, I can't remember on Twitter or something like that, comebacks like an NHL record. And you're like, that's crazy. And you see Studer on the game tangle, he had no emotion in the scrum. Go back to the scrum. Yeah, we'll show it.

Did this just happen? Like, what the hell's going on here? Like he was actually in shock that this all went down. I actually thought it was hilarious. All right, Jamie, stay focused. We don't care about the Canucks. We're talking about the planes. Are you watching out of comments?

This is not your Toronto show. There's a stock about whatever you want. You listen to, we're honestly, we'll tell you what it. It's not Sycarus and Price. All right, all right.

So now, again, just to make it, I don't for me, when I can, if it's a visual aid, it helps. Yes.

It comes to, you know, permutations and stuff. Yeah. Here's, this one is, we used AI, our best people.

We put to work here. Okay. So there's wild wins. You figure this one out with. Jamie, you can, walk us through this here. Let us know what they need here, Jimmy.

Flames wins. So wild wins. So let's, they're four left. Don't explain it. Let Jamie, Jamie knows. Jamie's, Jamie's going to take us through it. So clearly. In 411, California, Minnesota. So that's April 11.

Mm-hmm. Right. So why, okay, hold on a second here. This is cold. These are five games. So you're looking at the game. and you're going, okay, so you cross that out, 411, somebody has to win, that's a coin flip. So that's the black ones, right?

That's right. Yeah. Excellent. All done. So then the flames, the red is, the black is going to win that. And so the one and two are the losses that or potential points that they leave on the table for the flames, correct? The numbers are the wins that they would.

have. Yeah, there's from zero to five wins. You can win zero, one, two, three, four of five. And the wild have four games left. They could have zero to four wins. It's not true.

We've been having some fun with this. So basically the flames need five games, five wins, no. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And Minnesota, that's where they jump ahead of the two. So if you go the two for Minnesota, yes. And you slide across Calgary, is ahead of them in the five spot because they they won out nailed it you want to use this on your show today this small fee this is like my my seven-year-old would be able to watch the oh dogs better than our dog would love this so i do see yes that's the red the pathway in the red

that is the flames pathway if minnesota perhaps the bed basically and that and that's Two wins doesn't get it done. Three, if Minnie only wins one, four if Minnie wins two. And if Minnie wins three or four, they're done, basically. Yeah, the part that hurts is that Minnesota winning two of their last four seems like, okay. My head hurts from this. You would have to run the table if Minnesota wins just two games. Are we all focused on Minnesota?

Is St. Louis losing out not a problem or what? They only have three games left. No, we've, you know what, Jamie, last week? We shifted our focus. Shift it. Shift. Yeah. The Wild didn't know.

They had no idea. Whoever their coach is, we can't remember. Whoever their coach is, he had no idea. Yeah. But we shifted our focus. The, the, the hunted. Bigel. Whatever is the mix.

That's the thing. Well, here's the thing with St. Louis. They have the same number of points as the Oilers. So if St. Louis is still in the mix. Oh. Guys. games in hand. There's a big game tonight.

Stay focused. Five games left, don't they? How they do? Which teams played better for the last, you know, two and a half months? It's not close. Jack, can you pull up the oilers flames chart that we have in the blues? They play each other?

Never mind. Anyway. Wouldn't that be grand if Calgary caught Abington? Well, that's, there's not enough Kleenex and Lubbreder on planet. scenario the oilers are in a position to clinch a playoff spot tonight so they are yeah but in

in essence flames fans like i witnessed this last night ottawa fans were cheering for the montreal canadians to win last night are flames fans cheering for edmonton to win tonight because that that chunks off one game against st louis or sorry one st louis i don't rather the Emmington loss. They just don't look right at all. They started Olivier Rodriguez net. Like what are we talking about here? That's the team. Pickard needs to correct. I mean, you can't run Pickard in case you have to play them. But I think Skinner's good. I just before I was on with you guys, I was just talking to Ryan Rashog and asked him like status update of some, some of the guys up there. I think they've shot everybody down for the play, getting to the playoffs,

last couple games and then ramp it up. You know, like regular season. I don't think Evanton cares. They know they're playing LA potentially, or most likely, unless they completely lose all five and Calgary goes on a run. But I think they've got to get healthy before they can do anything to try and compete against L.A. L.A. is a good team.

Let's, I just, and I know when you come on, we probably talk a, probably an unfair amount of Ottawa senators for people that live in, no, we like to senators now. But for the first time, since 16, 17, they're going to the playoffs. Yeah. And we may get a juicy first round matchup,

depending what happens in the next week. A weird one. You lose five to two, but what was the post game? Like, you're not popping bottles and celebrating, but there had to have been some kind of, I'm just trying to think game wise timing. Were they all aware that they had qualified by the time the game was over?

Well, literally, as, so as Ottawa's game was ending, Yeah. There was still a minute left in the Montreal game, but they scored an empty netter. So I would imagine as they're walking down the tunnel after, you know, Columbus beat the hell out of them, they would be walking in and somebody would have given them, hey, you know, Detroit lost, we're in. So Steve Steyos, I watched an interview with him this morning, and he was saying that it was bittersweet because he said that he felt that his team played their worst game in a long time last night. which is true. But he said,

I talked to him before the game in the media lounge and he just said like, it's still nerve-wracking because until you see that X beside your name, you don't know, right? So I think for a lot of these guys, it's been, I did on my sports center head afterwards.

I just said it's a body of work. So you can be happy even on a night where you had a loss because if you look at the season, you know, Lena Sommark was out for two months. They had a kidney, levy Maryland and play a net for them. You know, they could have been a lot different spot.

They've had injuries that have inconsistencies, but they found a way. And, you know, I'm happy for their fan base. And that's why you guys know, I'm watching every flames minute going, I can see a pathway, but, you know, there's some, they need help and there's some obstacles in front of them. So, you know, that's the biggest challenge. I was checking to see if that kid was going to play tonight, I'm drawing a blank on his name because I've, Straber.

Yeah. Correct. Yeah, but I don't think he's going to play. I don't believe. Can we jump in on that? Yeah, like just for context, this has been a huge debate in Calgary amongst hardcore fans that some people are outraged. The flames aren't going to immediately put him in the lineup. And other people are like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Like, you've got maybe 15, 20 years of this kid. He can wait a week till they're eliminated. Like, he's a defenseman. He's coming from junior, not from college or the pro ranks. Where do you shake out on this? You'll know in two games kind of thing. Like tonight, like I'm fine. Give him some pro experience.

And you're right. This isn't like, hey, we are decimated with injuries or whatever. You've got to force beat him in. And I, you know, it sounds like he's going to be a hell of a player. But why place him in that situation where you're in such a massive crunch? Well, what does it say to the other guys? Exactly. The guys who have blood and sweat and tears, the guys who have block shots and been doing everything.

To me, it's the right thing. I understand from the outside. Yeah. Like, you know, us with our Joe fans hat on, I get it. But from the inside, I don't even think there would be a debate. Like from Huska and then, you know, Connie goes, hey, we got this young guy coming in. Great. Let's give them the pro experience.

but we're trying to make the playoffs here with this group, you know, and to me, so I understand it. And just like you guys laid out, if they have a dud tonight or, you know, and they lose to Minnesota on Friday or something like that, then it looks different. Have at it. Give them the last couple games and free looks.

But I don't think it's the right play to put them in right now. It's different. I think when Montreal is going to get that damage off. kid or whatever. And, you know, it sounds like he's, I think he's more NHL ready. It's playing against men all year, like 65 games in the K is not the OHL. Right. You know, you're playing against men. And, you know, there's guys with no sleeves on, handing out pills after the game in the KHL. There's doctor no sleeves. There's, uh, older, was my GM. He never wore a shirt. He just had like a muscle shirt on and walked around

or about a million bucks in a bag and handed it out. I mean, that guy's seen some stuff. In junior, you're just worrying about, you know, your nutrition and, you know, high school and stuff like that, you know. And so when you say pro experience, just for clarity, you're talking about being around the team, watching these guys operate. I mean, there's no practices right now either.

This stage of the season they're playing every other day. They're getting guys rest. Guys are playing through injuries. I feel like you're throwing a kid in the deep end. If he hasn't practiced and you're asking him to come in and play minutes. To me, it's a zero chance that he's. should play like for example tonight like i just don't i think you get them acclimated to like hey staying in a hotel with the guys your pregames your morning skate you're you're you're doing all of

these things of like hey we're giving you like this is house money this kids get in house money experience on a on a really in a really intense environment too give in mind like i you know it's it's a so what's going on here it's prex agent he's pissed no it's uh but anyways it's The point being, to me, you're getting, like, experience on the job. And I think it's invaluable for him. So I don't think there should be. And I understand from a fan's perspective, you want to see the shiny new toy. You can see him in a week or maybe not.

If they make the playoffs, he's around and he's an injury away, you know, like that type of stuff. So I think there's lots of bandwidth for him to play. Put it that way. I've got lots of questions, but they can probably wait until next week when we have a clearer picture. of what's going on. They'll give us clarity. You brought up swearing on the air as you're only,

if you don't swear, you've done a good job, you can sleep at night. Like, Rob Bray just cusses left and right on the air. I thought you were as big a deal as Rob Bray. Why can't you get away with it? He's bigger than me.

He's way bigger. Like, you remember, I had someone text me the other day and say Razors Massives, but they were actually talking about his girth and his weight. I did the game in, in Ottawa the other day and he stood beside me in between the benches.

I don't know if you guys saw it. There was a clown. Some guy who lost a fantasy football. He had to dress up like a clown. So there was a clown behind me and Rob Ray beside me. Rob Ray is twice the size of me, twice. And his head, like I don't have a tiny head. I'm not Beetlejuice.

I'm not Christian Hucilius. I, like Rob Ray's head is twice the size of mine. And his body, he's just, this massive man and does he i don't think he swears on air does he well he did swear on air but he got hit with a puck didn't he i was that was going to be part of my question do you have the self-control that or lack of so to not swear in that situation there's a video of me was that last year or two years ago i got a slash in the face here in between the bench it chipped my cheekbone and um the cameramen, like, turned and was, they were trying to put me on camera.

And I went on the talk back and I said, I think I'm hurt here. Like, don't, you know, they were like, hey, let's go to Jamie. He just got chopped in the face. This would be great. And Butch Goring saw on the broadcast for the Islanders, the play-by-play guy goes, I think Jamie McClennon got hit in between the benches. And he goes, he goes, I've coached him twice. He's never been hit by anything.

He just got right under the arm, too. Yeah. It was awesome. But I had a black guy. And then another one, I got a concussion. Mark Boravietzky chopped me over the head. And that wasn't. I've had two concussions or two head injuries as a broadcaster in between the benches.

I had two concussions as a pro goal tender in 17 years. I told TSN, I said, if I get anything again, I'm upstairs the duration. I've had enough. And I love the Buffalo broadcast. The next broadcast, they put Razor in the 300 levels. It was awesome. It was awesome. But, yeah, I would try not to swear.

I know there's been times like Brad Marchand. I did the Florida game the other day. And Marchand was going at it with Stootsla and a couple of those guys. And he was, there was some language there. And I was on the mute button. Who was he calling fat? Yeah, I don't know. You know.

You know. I think he was calling Zetterlin fat. I don't know. That Zetrelin is he's thick. He's thick. But yeah, he was giving it to a few of them. But he was pretty funny. I

just sit there in between the benches. I have no skin in the game. So you're just kind of, all right, let's watch this unfold. And it's kind of funny. Did you want to? Oh, well, you know, yeah, Rob Ray when he I mean, if you take a puck to the jibs,

that might be the first thing you say. But there's no, like for me, like there's no way he should get in trouble for that. And he didn't. And everyone knows him. No, but everybody knows him. The broadcast could, like they could, you know, if he decided he's like, hey, I'm, you know,

you guys have put me in a tough spot here. Like to me, I think he might have sat to sign a waiver or whatever to be in there, The point being is it just, it's raw emotion. You can mute that out. And if somebody who's woke or upset about swearing on air, I think that the team would take a bullet for him and say, you know, let's look at the context here of that. But I thought it, you know, what is that website,

awful announcing or whatever they, you know, they ran it and a bunch of ran it. I thought it was awesome. Like I think we ran it on TSN and just obviously leaped it out. But it was great. I think 99.9% of society loved that. And I was like, I hope Rob's okay, but like, that's awesome F-bomb. I really can't imagine someone being upset.

Like, you must be mad at the sun for coming up. Well, and I like that they had Tage Thompson or whoever was miced on the bench. Like, is the puck okay? Yeah. So true, though, because nothing can hurt that guy. Like, he just, he was, like, more annoyed. If you look at his face, he's annoyed. Like, he had a-

blowing up as the game goes on. Like he's almost in the back bump. And just because, I mean, we probably talk too much senators, maybe, and too much sabres. But just because it happened last night, Rhett, you'll be happy to know that the Sabres have won seven straight at home for the first time since October, November of 1999. They're on a heater. They're killing themselves. They're literally killing themselves. Eight and one in their last nine.

They climbed over Boston the other day. Now Boston's going to get a better pick. They're killing themselves. And now what's going to happen is it's fools gold in Buffalo. People are going to go, man, you know, let's stick with the same team because he got it. And they got James Reimer standing on his head at 37 years old. Like, and I love the guy, but like at some point you're going to have to go, we, you know, and I'm sure Kevin's got a plan.

Maybe he doesn't. I don't know. But I think Kevin Adams has a plan there to go, okay, our team is getting there. Like, I like, we've said this before. We've talked too much about Buffalo. I like a lot of their players, a lot of them. Like they're good. They got a bunch of good players there.

They just, I don't know what's going on. And now they're 8 and 1 and 1 or whatever, whatever they are. They're so good. Rhymer's when his last seven starts. They're just run in his life. He was unbelievable last week. He stood on his head. Like Ottawa destroyed them.

And like it was 5-2. Rhymer's making saves. He's like, it was just unbelievable. Like a young nude. Yeah, like a young noodler. No, I don't know about that. He has flags. You were talking about it.

And we'll get into, we'll get out, get Jamie out of here because he was up early. But the fun in games, there's a good, things are going to get real. I think of teams like Toronto, Florida, snapped a five games skid last night. All the, hey, it's been a good season. What a great time. Hey, another win. All that shit is going to be old news in about, you know, whatever. Yeah, all the field days.

right now. We'll quit, yeah, two weeks from now, quickly change. Hey, you've got a great year. Game one starts. The Jets, you're busy reading your headlines? How's it going to go if you get game one, it gets the wild and get pumped? Should we, any unique thoughts on OV or has been talked about enough? No, you know what?

I initially, my initial reaction watching him tie it against Chicago, two things. I was like good on Spencer night because Ovi had about three shots after the kid, that Leonard kid put in the empty netter, which was like, I was shocked. I'm like, why is that kid shooting the puck in the empty net? Dump it in and get OV on the ice for the empty netter. And then I find out that Ovi didn't want to go on the ice for the empty netter. So I'm like, good for the kid. I'm happy for you to start your career.

But then I went to bed that night going, careful what you wish for. It's an afternoon game against the Islanders. if he goes on a dry streak for six games and he turned down an opportunity to get on the ice for an empty netter or he gets a slap shot in the foot or something happens. I kept thinking to myself, he might have screwed himself. Well, what does he do halfway through the game? He goes and breaks it on a beautiful goal actually, like legit, beautiful goal. I thought the league did an unbelievable job. I think it's incredibly difficult to shut a game down halfway through and do a 20-minute, you know,

ceremony. I thought the Islanders, the most just about is Lou Lamarillo and Patrick Gwa would be, they're two of the crustiest people in the NHL. Like, can you imagine that happened against their organization and they're having to sit there and watch this while they're trying to make the playoffs? I thought Sorokin was very gracious. He's buddies with Ovi, obviously, and all of that. But that's tough because he's in the history books and be on that video forever. But I, I, Brett's he was awesome. I thought Wayne was amazing. I loved, there was one comment.

I don't know how you guys feel about it, but Wayne was interviewed, I think the next day. Can't remember by who, but he brought up a great point. They were talking about, well, if Gretzky played in today's game and if Ovi played back then. And, you know, Wayne brought something up. And I think it was kind of just a subtle like, hey, like, you know, just so you know, Wayne said two,

two things. He goes, like, nobody shadowed Ovi. Like, he goes, he constantly had shadows. And he goes, I didn't get to play any overtime games. Like, you know, three on three over. Could you imagine those oilers in three on three on three? Four on four. Like, they just, they did, they'd have a straight tie for most of those. These oilers are no fun. Yeah. Three on three, let alone those oilers. And look, like, you can go look at the adjusted numbers. You can find out how many average goals are per game and adjusted. And that puts Ovi way ahead. And then you can say, well, Wayne had a pro season in the WHA and old Gordy House been a decade. It's never going to be perfect apple to apples, but I'm glad he got the sunlight.

And everyone knows Wayne's points is the real. As parents, it's the neat thing because, oh, so this guy's got more goals. Yeah. Wayne also has more assists than anyone has points. So how many back is over? Like 12? What? How does that work?

You walk through. Oh, my God. Yeah. Yeah. I know it's, I thought it was awesome. I loved everything about it. I thought Wayne was gracious, you know, Janet giving the gift to the wife. And, you know, it just, and the other thing, too, I read this yesterday.

Apparently Ovi could have stayed in New York and done the whole tour on the Tonight Show and all of that. And he turned it all down and said, I want to, I got to, we're in a stretch here. We got to play hockey. Well, they're also Thursday. I was sure they were going to have canceled the charter and party in New York. and he's like no no business and what's also cool is it didn't drag out over these three away for two or three weeks he went got it he went and got it six games in a row five games in a row yeah yeah awesome yeah it just i think the league would be happy too that you don't have gretsky just

following this guy around for five games how happy is wayne right he's probably happy too yeah he just one or two more nights of the suites the suites no pj i think he's i mean especially in new york you'll enjoy it but i i just think it i think they did a great job. And, you know, there's there's always, again, I always look at it 90, 10. For the most part, 90% of people are just happy and all that. The 10% will never be happy with anything and they're very loud. Gary's not happy. Gary, Gary's like, Wayne, would you like some pot stickers? Oh, is it, oh, darn, Sharon, sweet time with the great one. Gary's not as cool as he was a week ago. Yeah.

His last name is Leonis, not Leonis. I liked when they were walking out, they started booed them, and he kind of gives the old, yeah, that's about right. They just kind of shrugs it off. Okay, now the most important part, the candy bracket, we're down to the final, buddy. We are down to the final two. It was the Coke bottles and Skittles on one side. It was Peaches v. Sour Patch Kids on the other.

Yes. There's your final. The fifth and sixth seeds. Didn't I call it? I called Skittles Sour Patch, because I said, Fuzzy peaches are lazy. It's just one flavor. Sour Patch has a multitude of flavors,

and I felt like the cola got jammed up on that as well. Skittles has multiple colors and colors. They did get jammed up. Almost feels unfair. Let's go back to the Telestageria. You can see the cola bottles get jammed up here with the Skittles. Totally got jammed. But the path, undeniable for the Skittles,

they beat the Twizzlers who, I don't know where you sat, but you were kind of defending the Twizzlers in round one. I like the Twizzler, the multiple flavor twislers, like orange cream, all of that. Not just your traditional. But the Twizzlers were good. Listen, I'm in agreeance. Am I allowed to call the winner? Yeah, you give us your opinion.

Absolutely. Skittles are winning. Wow. Because not everybody likes sour patch. That's good point. You put a sour patch in and you get a bad one. You get that look on your face. Not everybody likes a sour patch.

Now everybody likes Skittles. All right. My debate with you would be, I don't like candy in general, period. but we've been taste testing and I was anti-sour patch because of what you said I'm like well even if it is red green yellow purple it's sour it's all you get yeah

not that sour but the candies are kind of these will be with suck off the the candy on the outside and then you're into the juju part that's where you got to cut the mic the rock right you can't swear my goodness

So Sour Patch Kids, it will be in Nudels versus the Skittles. Skittles. Yeah. Skittles will win. All right. We're good pros. We've been testing here.

We're not just going to, you know, go flying out without doing some homework. Make sure your kid votes. I've got my voting. I just got him today, the electrician or election. How not the real for the candy bracket. Candy bracket. Oh,

you're talking about voting in. Oh, it's our show. We have a decent government. That's real life. I was like, at that you vote, I'm like, is the boat next week? I know it's a couple weeks from now, and I just got Elections Canada in the mail. So anyway. You're the bad.

I got a business meeting Friday morning and fly back Saturday and then fly to Ottawa Saturday night because I got a game 1 o'clock Sunday. fly home Monday for overdrive and all that fly back to Ottawa Tuesday for a game fly back

Really classy guy. Like, you know, he used this term, and it stuck with me when he bought the team. He said, I want to change this organization or, you know, have it. And he uses the words best in class.

So he's like, I'm going to get the, you know, I want the best trainers. I want the best everything. And you know what? It's taken him a while, but he's really made an impact on the community. you know, I think he's hired some great people. He's been an awesome owner, and he's a fantastic person. He's around the team, but he's not like one of those owners that wants to be front and center. He's just a really, I think it's a fan at heart, right?

I think he's fantastic. He's a great human. I really got a lot of time for him. You had a lot of time for us. We appreciate you, Pat. Thank you. Have a good one, guys. We'll chat soon.

I do want to take you through just some of the out-of-town stuff from last night. We got the Pinder Report coming up. Can you go to, maybe don't need to do it on on screen.

But we, I had said yesterday at flamesnation.ca, if you go to the website, you'll find the candy bracket. Yeah. Where the place to, the place to vote. This is the final week.

It's going to be a banger right to the finish. We'll find out Friday morning. Class of champions. But you have been putting together kind of short essays, write-ups. Articles. To capture the spirit of what's happening.

You're the Dickie Dunn. Of the candy bracket. That's right. And I had said, I was wondering if maybe you could kind of share, read aloud to the class, because I know you would have put a lot of time and effort into this. Could you share the little article? You want me just to read my article?

Yeah, just read aloud to the class of your work here. All right, let's go. Start with the title. I can't even see it. Because there's a. Yeah, okay, no title. After a Sugarfield Showdown that's seen fan favorite candies go, head to head in heated batchups.

We finally officially reached the final round of the barburning candy bracket. Through a finely in there, but I'm sorry. It's all come down to Skittles versus Sour Patch Kids, two powerhouse sweets that chewed through the competition with ease. I like that. I worked to chew. You know,

I was doing. Yeah. Sound Patch Kids. Cruise past the gummy bears, Mike and Ikes and the fuzzy peaches, proving that sour, then sweet is a winning formula. Clever.

Skittles battled through the Twizzlers, Swedish berries, and always popular cola bottles to claim their spot in the final. The full bracket shows a wild ride of upsets, bloats, and razor-thin victories from gummy bears versus thirds to cola bottles, dominating blue whales.

Check out the attached bracket. Now it's up to you to crown the ultimate candy champion. It will be the rainbow chew of Skittles or the tangy punch. What is it? Tangi? Tangy?

Tangy. It's here we're a... Tangy. punch of Sourbatch Kitch. Derby? Monday, April 7th at 10 a.m. until Friday, April 11th, at 11 a.m. This is it.

No second chances. Only one candy will reign supreme. Let the finals. Let the finals begin. Thank you, Jack. That was very well done. I know you put a lot of time. I closed my eyes and tried to imagine I was in like a classroom. Yeah, teacher reading to. Yeah, it was real good, Jack. Thanks, right.

It will be interesting. Who appreciates that tangy punch of the sour patch as opposed to the, and it's the texture and everything. Nice job, buddy. Thank you. You're not supposed to drink that tang, are you? I don't know. We should have it at Auntie Karen's house all the time,

but that's because the water was so awful. Well, remember there was a fast food place where they would set you up. It was just called orange drink. Yes. The cooler full of orange drink. Oh, what's in it? That was never asked. Orange?

Thank you. Thank you for the orange drink. Handsome Dan's vacation rentals and Crystal Waters plumbing and heating, proud sponsors. I'm assuming proud sponsors. The candybar, yeah. I'd say so. Handsdans.ca. Vacation rentals over on the island in the Vancouver, British Columbia area, that general region.

Salish Sea. And, of course, Crystal Waters. They just continue to do. I do it all for us. I thought it was big of you to kind of, you didn't even, not even walk it back, but just to, just to admit what the,

what the, uh, sour patch kids, how maybe you would underestimate it or gotten, I'm not a candy guy at all. Brett and I are pros. We sat here Friday. We put both them in front of us and it's like, you're not picking. You're just listening to your tongue's down.

So what was, was it instantly? Did it take? Did you have to kind of let it, well, like a good Somali. I, like, tasted it. It's batted out. Then I put a little more. Right.

And swish it. Yeah. Yeah. But I savored. I savored. I'm not just hammering them back. No, you can't.

And they both have so many of them flavors. You needed to have kind of a handful of each. Yeah. And the lemon lime can go to hell. Yeah. We decided the yellow. Any and all. Do we want an update on the voting?

Can we? I just, just because I feel like you're, you want to go back and visit a Skiddle here quick? in the in just in the interest of fair play get that other bag which the sour back see there's a yellow here i've got no interest it's going to it's going do i have to take the yellow into consideration see the bat i don't like it i like the red so oh a sugar that sorry ryan sorry sorry sorry well i spilled sugar i'm sorry well i spilled sugar all right again don't like yellow don't like green want one you can have v oh thank you we're talking about a lot of these canies have so many different flavors red's always one of the best flavors if not the best always always and yellow we know to starbursts they'll sell just the reddish like the pink and the reds they know now if sour is not your thing it's not like eating a freaking lemon it's not that sound we're talking about sour suitors are seven more sound

What helps this too is this particular package of Sour Patch Kids is very fresh. I don't know why, though, because it's been open for. I'm going orange and orange. Where do you want me to start? Go to Sour Patch Kids. It's the sugar that's the sour part on the kids. The candies, I believe the candy is sweet, but it's the sour, which I'm sure is good. It's probably good for it.

I wish I had some water to cleanse the palate. Got beer for you if you want. Jack? Beer? All right. Now, the Skittle. Is the voting tight? I hope it's 24 votes separate.

What? I'm going to tell you right now. I don't know what you do right there. Right? It's on. I don't know what you do. You think you're going a certain way and then you kind of reset. Okay, let's, you can't sleep on the Skittles.

And I'll tell you what else. Everyone voting? Rock the vote. Do your thing. Definitely rock the vote. Rock the vote. Vote or die. Before you do, if you can, if it's a possibility, do what we're doing here.

Take some time. Put in the work. Sit down in front of your candy and your bracket. Taste test that shit. This is not a throwaway decision. No. This is haphazard. Oh, they said to vote, so I'm going to vote.

And when I was six, I stepped on a skittles. So I'm going to. I'll tell you what, for me, not trying to sway anybody. I like the Skittles as a traveling slash road trip snack. Excellent. Whereas the Sour Patch Kids, because of, we saw it here. The sugar, there's powder. If you're taking the bag and putting it, you know,

Can you imagine there's a pizza sitting in front of you and you're just hung over watching golf? Yes. Yes. Free to enter the pool. Flamesnation.ca. Do it today. Yeah, please. Come on.

Don't miss out. You have less than 24 hours. Less. Yeah. And again, it's Eastern Time Zone up there. It's in Augusta. Yeah. They're going to tee off in the morning.

You got to get your picks in tonight. Yeah, you're not getting. You are not getting up at five in the morning. No. Don't kid yourself. You're not doing it. You're not doing it. I'm addicted to the lasagna, Dean.

God, it's good. Really? I love it. Remember the individual, non-individual ones? That's four in two weeks. I've crushed. Really? Yeah, I eat it.

Then I'm like, okay, that's enough, big fella. So you're like deleting like a two to four person. Usually it's on a son. Sunday night because I'm hung over. So Sunday night, I'll crush one of those. Is that when you're an Indus? Regardless.

Well, that's Friday night. Yeah, Fridays. Indus to win this. Then by Thursday, I'm like, that farmer's market. Probably ready to do it again. I'm like, I'm walking right by.

It's right there. And probably I'm going to be hung over again on Sunday. Then it gets home and then I eat it on Thursday. Right. Well, then I am hung over again on Sunday. Yeah. So I head on back.

There's a pattern. It feels like it. You're a man of rhythm. You do like lasagna. Garfield. The which? That cat, the fat cat, Garfield. Odie.

Got it. Odie was the dog. Yeah. I want to show you a little something that happened. So we've talked about Buffalo and the great run that they're on. I don't want to hear about it. No, it's, it's not.

It's, I just thought, hey, since October, November of 99, they've won seven straight at home. I wasn't even there. 14th 14th consecutive season they'll miss the playoff

14 years Florida got a win over Toronto Paul Maurice win number 914 tying with Barry Trots for third most ever for head coaches in the NHL the Bruins they beat New Jersey it's just their second win in their last 13

New Jersey so there's a few things here so the Bruins bad Jamie talked about it the sabres of leapfrog that they've moved on. Meanwhile, Pasta, Pasternak, has been in on each of their last 13 goals. Jeez.

He has 16 points in their last seven games, and they're still shit. Well done, Boston. They scored seven on Jacob Markstrom. Marky's had tough go since Four Nations. Seven on 23. I passed at 100 points, too. on that miserable outfit.

Yeah. A third straight year that he gets to 100. Seven. I was looking because the flames have New Jersey's first rounder. The flames have Florida's first rounder. The flames have their own. One of Florida or the flames will go to Montreal. We know it's very likely to be the flames pick.

New Jersey's two points up on the flames. Those picks could be like right next to each other in the draft, which would make it less painful giving one away to Montreal. Dougie Hamilton is skating. There's some belief now that he might be ready for the playoffs. But it still feels like. We don't care about them. It just still feels like it's not.

And Carolina's who they got a face. It's not like there's a minnow. Like Carolina. It's a boring matchup, isn't it? I feel like we've seen it's not sexy markets. But again, if it's an overtime, I'm not going to hate you. I'll come over and watch. Big win for Pittsburgh.

Jack's Penguins get it done. Five nothing. They shut out the Blackhawks. Eric Carlson, the second Swedish-born Dman. ever to score 200 goals. Okay. Him and Bobby Born? Swedish. Born, yep.

The Hawks have lost 13 to 15. Sid, 14 game home ice point street. Stud. Stud. How about the old boys showing everybody how it's done? I got a little Sid stat for you too in the Pinn report. It's impressive at his age, what he's doing.

And you'll remember the other day, and I bring it up from time. time to time and I kind of trumpet the fact that I bring it up. How important and maybe underrated the empty net goal is. You get the empty net goal to pad your lead. Can help you. Jesus, quite a take. I'm just, you got a thing on your microphone. I don't care.

Just a thing. You know, you get the, you get the empty netter. Stress level gone. Yeah. You're tucking it to bed. Last night, Dallas, taking on Vancouver, Granland, empty net goal. goal four two becomes five two perfect shut her down boys nice we're now big win

for the Dallas stars just over a minute to play as we pick it up by the Smith stealing the puck back is Marcus Peders and feeds the side they score at you Rachu able to put that one home Hughes Peronic down for Garland doesn't shoot it puts it in front they score Pew Sooner. Don't go away just yet. Sooner off the setup from Garland. Bessert back to Garland. Connor Garland to Quinn Hughes. Ten seconds left.

His shot. Oh, Horonick dismisses at the side. That's the door. Hughes Sooner's got another one. Can you believe this? The Canucks three straight goals in the final minute, and the game is tied at five. Hughes again.

Heronic near side had to take it off his skate. Strip to the puck by Harley Dumba check behind the neck Garland. Senters, they score. Kiefer Sherwood, with a minute 16 to go and overtime. The Canucks complete.

Trailed 5-2. A minute left. With a minute left. That's a, you know what? Two things. A stunned crowd in Dallas. Yes. And I'm just going through my hockey terminology.

That, I believe, is referred to as shitting the bed. Oh, right. Or shitting yourself. Soil. Yeah. Of some sort. Pete DeBoer.

Remember he was talking back with the flames over the last few weeks. Not really loving the way we're playing. We're getting some results, but would really, our game needs to. Five to two. Five two lead.

Had the empty netter. Got a point. Yeah. Had the empty netter. No. That's good. They play each other this weekend. That's better.

You don't want them to catch one. It depends what you're looking for. But yeah, Colorado, Dallas is going to be a war. I'm all for it happening at any point, first or second round, whatever. Is anyone? I'm saying a West Coast time.

Going to San Antonio? Oh, for late games. For late games. That's good point. Phoenix, Arizona. Seattle's not in the two other California teams. I'd love to go to San Antonio. Good spot.

Riverwalk. You'd love it, Dean. I keep hearing about it. We got some video from San Antonio coming up. Really? Yeah. Not making that up. Literally a guy.

Just like us talking about San Antonio. As if we're not living in a AI designed. This is, we're not. This is not really real. You passed out on the couch before the show. I was whispering stuff in your ear. Anyway, uh, yeah, San Antonio coming up. Charlie Pride, rest in peace.

Let's do the Pinder report, shall we? Pinda report, a presentation of Village Honda, located in the Northwest Auto Mall. It's your dealership for life. It is. Yeah. How's your vehicles? Still good, right?

The best. Yeah. The best. Is it brand new? It's like, September. But it's still good, right? Great.

Reliability. Just had the first oil change. That's a new. Because a lot of them, you take them off the lot, they just start smoke coming out from under the hood. Tires are like boom, boom,

falling off. Not some bold. Didn't Jughead? He had a jalopy. Yeah, joluppies. They're not selling any jalopies up there. Jack. Jughead?

Jughead? Jughead? What's the jughead? Oh, fuck. This might be one of my favorite things. Here's Ryan Pinder with the Pinder Report. All right, boys, it's game day. Calgary Flames.

Hey, good luck and have a season. Nice. Can I say something? I know it's the Pinder Report, but I had it in my notes. Please do. He hasn't missed the game as a Calgary Flay. He's been incredibly terrible. He's been in everyone this year.

he scored 24 goals, 29 last year, up to 31 this year. Well, if you don't get involved, you can skate through it. Yeah. He's won away from matching his career high goals with 32. He's supposed to stop doing that.

Sorry. He's having a great year. I'm making things up. He's being full down, Nas, sat down. One away from a career high, he hit 32 back to back years as a Maple Leaf.

So if he gets two, oh, quite impressed. Parades. I just never thought he's not missed the game. He's been. been very good. You can.

They all stretch and the pick for with Monaghan to get Cadre there's that part of it. Yeah. But Nazim Cadry's signing on as a Calgary flame, putting on that jersey. It's been a pretty good. Once he and Daryl didn't have to see each other

daily, he's been great. Yeah. I'm sure Daryl's been good too, but whatever. Yeah, Darrell's moves. It's probably fine. Both moved on. He bounced back. Is he still getting paid? I think he is, yeah. Last year. Jeez, that's a good gig, eh.

It's almost up, though. Middle of April. Yeah. God. Hopefully he's been smart with his money. Maybe some service credit union. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Suts. There's not Calvin. He's checking things out there. Yeah. Okay, let's go to flames nation. What's what's going on on the website? Well, the debate of all debates right now is the case for or against

same per rec. It's playing politics. Right now. I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died. That hit me. And then as I was saying, and I'm like, that's not Charlie.

pride because you're talking about how weird it's Tom T. Hall. Yeah. Shit. Tom T. Hall. I was actually in my brain. I was like, what was I going to do?

Question you. I've done this debate. I did it online for two hours last night. I'm done with this debate. Go read more at Flamination.com. What are you doing online on like on the internet? I was at Twitter and someone had made some. Look at all these forwards playing college going to their teams.

It's like, well, he's a defense from the old. It's weird that you would get involved in something like that. I don't have a hard passive. I don't have strong opinions. And ignore your children just to I found out of the argument. I saw you and Bobby were going back and forth.

Bob's Germany. You and Bob Germany. Bobby's very pro, put him in tonight. And I'm like, dude, you're on the road. He hasn't practiced.

The other team has last change. It's your most important game of the year. And he's a left shot. He's not a left shot. But, you know, there's reasons to believe you could help us team now too. I do get where he's coming from.

Now I don't know what you're telling me. Are you playing them or not. They're not playing them. It's not a debate in Calgary is kind of what. We were talking before the show. 8.30 start two nights ago. Pinder and Pike on the post game. About 8.30, that'd be a late start.

Wonder how long. An hour seven, they went on afterburner afterwards. It's not even close to like a non-cur record. No, it just kind of felt like his, oh, well, we were talking about prospects and contract status. Contract status and this sort of thing. Tonight, Ryan Pike and I on Afterburner, nowhere near an hour seven. You're going to mention that entry level slide on Zane's deal because he's not going to be 20 by December 20th next year? I won't.

Okay. It may come up, but I won't. But I look forward to, uh, you know, the wrench, flapping, flapping gums tonight with, uh, with the wrench. With the wrench. I got it. I almost feel like I should just do it myself. I feel bad that these people have to stay up late. Oh, for.

No. Come on. Pike loves it. Not everyone is just bitter and pissed off. Lames and ducks on a Wednesday night. It's 1145. This is the biggest game. It is a baguadi.

It is a baguaddy. It is a baguji. It must win. You know what it is? It's an hour earlier. I'm feeding off that tone that you brought into the show. I would be pumped if this was a seven o'clock day, but because it's eight. Yeah.

Justin Kirkland got the nod fellas for the Bill Master. Award from the flames. Something shitty has happened to me. Yeah, something real shitty. Nearly died, the car accident. And then, of course, the ACL this year. But great guy, beloved in the room. I know they've been new to Calgary in the second stint.

Last time, it was a lot of time in Stockton. But has already endeared himself in the community a lot of ways. I know they don't go out and do things to get talked about. But I can tell you there's charities around that very appreciative of the Kirklands are here. Because it's been so long, I think, we do forget. And there's no way of knowing if he would still be having that impact. No fucking Klapka right now if we had Kirkland.

Well, I don't know if that's more again every day. I know. But that was when he came in and obviously Huska knowing him previously in that and then starts scoring big goals and then the shootout, that was a pretty cool coming of age story. Yeah. Then you throw in the car accident like you mentioned. It's all you'll be able to find it. I don't tell you're talking about car accident.

You go to Flames Nation. I see a great right up there for you. Who rode at the wrench? I think there's a few guys. It might have been, could be flashed the wrench. Or maybe it was a flash of the wrench. Don't flash the wrench anywhere.

It was a, not in public. They co-labbed on it. It was a flashed the wrench. They'll put you in the backseat of a car. Real fast. My brother did that once in Invermere, didn't it? That he did.

Jesus, come on, Bob. Let's get her moving. Close games. That's what it's all about this time of year, right? You go on golf and it. Ray Wolf? I can't. As long as a rip and pan,

so you like close games. How about this? Games tied or within a goal? They're up down. Tide! No team in the NHL has spent more time within a goal or tied this season than the Calgary Flames. They love drama.

They love it. And things that no one gives up about. Winning by a bunch is boring. It's dull. Well, it just does tell you, like, there's not a lot of room for error with this. group is there and one more goal the game would help you a lot on the football we have this to confirm that we have been unable to pull away in any game we don't do it can't stop won't stop and by the way the friday night baguaddy after they

have a baguadie tonight that's the fourth place team i hope it's a baguaddy whoever's done after burney brach it'll be baguaddy no matter what won't it so if we lose tonight we win the next four what if what if the wild win tonight but he's still have to win. You had to be. The road gets a loss. Do we have a graph? Jack,

they can show it with some wins. What's the schedule? Didn't the wrench whip something together? Let's say, you want to schedule? Give them the schedule. We'll do the schedule first. Can we do that to drags on Friday? The graph.

God, no, please. Yes. Yes, right? We'll have an updated one after that one today. I'll be honest. That was not, we did not give any heads up to Jamie on that. It was apparent. It went exactly as I hoped it would.

Yeah, it was good. Okay. So that's all right. You've got, so there's two. And so someone has to win four, 11th. So that's April 11th. So then if there's two, it was perfect. It was very good.

Jamie doesn't miss. And I'm Minnesota, San Jose, Vegas, L.A., end of season. There it is. That's it. That's all every other day, all month. Buckle up for Baguades the rest of the way. Four and one is that what we decided earlier? It has to be because that only gets you to 95 and 95 is two wins for Minnesota.

again the wild schedule if they win two they'll be at 95 points yeah why's my audio nothing right now they could lose they could lose the 11th and 12th yeah back to back those other two

maybe they'll slip on a banana what's your feel tonight San Jose is in St. Paul I got some news for you on that see the wild it looks like well it's a possibility that Carrel Caprice off

and Joel Air and Eck could return to the lineup tonight. God, damn it. Although it's not confirmed. Before they have play the flames, I'm guessing. I don't like the shark's chances. It's my audio playing. I'm not here.

Press up. I'm not here today. Grosch. God damn it. Yeah, that's. You guys are hearing it? Yeah. Okay.

Good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Let's look at that wildcard chase one more time. game in hand plus you play them but playoffs yeah

hey well no more tomorrow I was going to go it new graph tomorrow what were you going to do nothing come on talk it out I was going to do it with noodles earlier I'm going to wait till Wednesday of next week come on very good I don't have to wait a week you're going to forget on people

can I write it down 24 forget 24 you won't forget you won't forget it's the same shit I've talked about all year All right. Why didn't they go get a score? Kind of. All right. It's like you have a backpack.

It's the post-mortem thing. What I've done is I started the, if you don't make it, this is the breakdown of what people are going to be talking about. I just started it early like in October. Okay. I look forward to next Wednesday. So we're in a playoffs.

Ten years ago, very special day. What happened? well it was the first time in a long time the cowgars lames got back to the stanley cup playoffs teith stands his ground and keeps it outside good game good draw and monaghan or awesome look at the crowd me and weems were high-fiving it's right up in that corner look at the crowd fellas that's what ending up playoff draw looks like and sounds like and feels like it would upset of vancouver and around one that year or a Tuesday in Montreal. Similar.

Yeah. That as well. That's the thing about not making the playoffs a bunch is that when it happens, it's a big deal. Yep. It's a big deal. In Colorado, Vegas, they're not doing this. Well, you've got teams out there right now.

Resting guys. Yeah. Florida. Difference does it make. Benny, sit down. First, second round, not a big deal. Fat cats. The Panthers, weird.

Hoods. Cats, fat. I have no shoes on. I'm sorry. Vegas. What a place, man. What a place. All right, let's get some news around the league.

I do want you to key in on the Atlantic Division for a moment. Pretty first goal on a head of a drone. They had it going. Toronto really fumbled the bag a bit last night, fellas. They had the Panthers without like seven of their best players found a way to lose and now they get Tampa tonight on the second half of a back to back. They're idiots.

They are idiots. They had their chance right last night. And useless. Tell me more. They could have sealed top spot basically in the division. Top spot and then you're playing Ottawa or Montreal, which is what everyone in the world wants to see. Yes.

But no, we'll get all up and. Tampa's been pumped by Tampa or Florida in the first round. Good. I hope you get speed bag. I hope you get absolutely dummy. Yeah, I don't, that I can take relief. But if I don't F up, Leafs versus one of those two and the Florida battle. Don't do it.

No, look, Montreal's going to have to get ahead of Ottawa. It's all things Eastern Canada. They're idiots. That's true. We're so much smarter out here. That whole area. Just listen. Ed out of ass, people.

Let's go. Panthers have won three versus three of the four. They played against Toronto this year. So that's a good omen if they play each other. Great omen. Yeah, that they do, right? Look who's skating, not with the avalanche, but with their HL affiliate Colorado Eagles.

I love the Eagles. He's been skating forever. The band? Man, I just hate the Eagles. All right, get your old band's half. Take it easy. Take it. Loaned on conditioning assignment.

I imagine this conditioning will get them ready for game one of the playoffs. I am not excited. I'm happy for him. I expect nothing. This guy will be worse than adding correct to your lineup. You don't go like, what are we talking about? He hasn't played in how long? Since they lifted the cup.

That's three years. It will be a three year anniversary of the summer of that. Like. Because it was Vegas and Florida, the last two cup winners. I'm sorry. Talk about game speed. I'll say if somehow, some way he can even be a fourth line winger,

it's an incredible achievement. I'm not talking about the achievement. Two different things for sure. And again, what you're saying, I'm with you, we have to keep expectations very low. If he can be their best fourth line, right, left winger, like, that's still better than nothing. The human element of it is impressive.

If you've seen any of the videos or the photos of the stuff that he has gone through and then no question, the training and everything. So is it only because he's an athlete that we give him kudos? But like if I went and did that, can I get a high a praise from you? No, it's because he's an athlete. but he's trying to really do something other than just kind of walk around he's trying to rat limping up the stairs to the studio does not give me the feels the same way this does well and i

also think that there's a lot of people to just be like like no chance we wrote him off they do you know how serious this surgery was no one's ever done it cartilage replacement in his knee oh it's not he's a seriousness of it it's the lack of it's never happened before it's Or maybe he's an egomaniac. Or maybe he'll be straight shit. Kail McCar is like, that's okay. I'm just probably the best. Here would be my, I mean, I guess he's going on in the conditioning and we'll find out if he can even play.

Yeah. You don't want a Kachuk situation. Yeah, you don't want him in where you could have someone functional in that line-up spot for sure. I think if you're the team in Gabe Landiscag, you both have to be very, very honest about where things are at. And if he's like, you know what, I'm probably about 50s. 50%. It's like, Gabe, we can't do 50. I don't think 50% is, yeah. We can't do it. It's not good enough for the NHL.

But that's what the conditioning stands for. It'd be a cool story. I do agree. It's going to be hard for him to come back and look like the captain that won the cup. Almost impossible. Okay, Cindy Crosby, we talked about the season he's having. And Randon said he was going to run him first game because he hates me. Oh, jeez, I'm making it up.

Miko. This is what I do. That's getting clicks. Good for business. Miko Rattenan threatens to take off. Gabe Ladisog's head. As soon as he started the show like he was coming back, I wanted out of Colorado.

I couldn't take it. I think that'll be a storyline at all if Dallas plays Colorado and around? What? Miko Ranton against his former team. Probably over it, everyone yet. No, he got traded to Carolina. It's not the last thing. I'll write that down to make sure we don't forget.

Yeah, you don't want to gloss over that part. Yeah. Sometimes you forget his teams, yeah, try to play a lot of. So many series in round one. Guys move around a bit. Yeah. Sidney Crosby, achievement, achievement. This is for players in a age 37 plus season.

Most points. Gordi Howe at 103. Goodness. Sackick 100. Johnny Bucick, 93. Stupid Joe, Sack. Mario 91. It's 37 or older.

I did say 37 plus. But I'm saying, Gordy Howe, 103. Maybe he did it when he was 70. That would be very impressive. Wayne 90. Sid could pass Wayne's best 37 plus season this year. Just Gretzky root. just that why do we have
