Starting point is 00:00:03 All right. It is a Friday. Happy Hawaiian T-shirt dates. I was celebrate. I was gold. Well, you put an under layer on. You go Hawaiian shirt, top layer. Jack, what's Jack wearing? I always forget. Jack looks great. What's he got? Talk to talk to us. You can see the young man here. Well, Jack's got his Steelers. Steelers, Hawaiian T-shirt. The big game against the Bengals? Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Baltimore. The first divisional game of the year for the Steelers. Welcome to the program on a Friday. We'll have Darren Dregor in about 17 or so minutes time. It's right. Pinder alongside Rhett Warner and. Sly. Sly. Love you, Sly.
Starting point is 00:00:51 How we doing, bud? Kick an ass, Rambo. I mean, Rogge. Both, yeah. I mean, just put a little, what's the eye black? Rub that on your face? Man, he was tough. Either way.
Starting point is 00:01:03 He's a short guy, huh? Yeah, just not six three like five, ten somewhere. Yeah, just a little shit. A lot of those guys that look cute, Jothden. That's easier. Like Longberg, yeah, you seem to post game, tarps off doing interviews. You're like, that guy looks like the world's strongest man. Oh, you can fit me in your pocket, five nine.
Starting point is 00:01:20 He's a wee fella. Good fellow. What do we do? On a, on a game day, we ask people to sly. Is it a game? Sly, could you, uh, no he don't want to ruin his hair he's got the helmet right behind him too
Starting point is 00:01:37 it wouldn't be the hardest uh game be helmets on it is the flames and the predators tonight at the scotian bank saddled home and uh the prets did you catch any of their action last night did you watch football what do you got right watched connor score his thousandth and as much as I have disdain for the oilers yeah i thought it was pretty damn cool
Starting point is 00:02:00 it's very good hockey Yeah, the old man was there. Yeah, you sit back, you go, huh. So we're watching. You're not 28 yet, and you're at a thousand. A lot of points. So you've got another thousand probably because he's probably going to play at least 40. You kind of, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:14 He's got another 13 years, probably. I would take share of himself. Seems to. We don't see him, you know, whining and dining in L.A. in his time off. Did you see him wine and dying one time? Not wanting to dine. The time in Toronto. when he was all hammered up on Queen West.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Yeah. It's more of that video too. Careful now, fella. We had Thursday night football last night. The Preds will complete in Alberta back to back tonight when they're in the Scotian-Saddle-on last night. Back to back. Another third period blown leave for the Oilers, but of course they would win it in overtime
Starting point is 00:02:51 again, not unlike a couple other games you've seen. But they did it to the Islanders two nights prior. And if you're darnell nurse, it's a lovely army you've got there, Dean, I'm sure. it's nice to have a spitting backhand pass to your tape when you've got an empty backdoor look. That's, that was McDavid's other contribution on the night. Just, you know, that was the one I saw live.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Yeah, that's a tough spot for a backup goalie to try to stop that. Westwood. Wedgewood. Yeah, wedge salad. He was in there. Wow. And that means the flames will likely get UC Saros tonight. So the better goalie.
Starting point is 00:03:28 So they know who's hot in Alberta. Yeah, or they're like, hey, if we want two points in Alberta, what's our best shot? I don't know. Yeah, it is not been an undeniable. I'm awesome start for UC Saros. Oh, sir, you're sly. See you later, bud. Adios, macho.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Been a while since we saw him. Good to have him back. But, yeah, I think you could probably say that about most of the Predators. Stamco's eight points. They're 17 games. Hey. That's not what you were looking to get. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:04:00 and Roman Yossi's, the points are there. I'm sure he's been Roman Yossi, but it doesn't sound like he's fit in perfectly with Brady Shea was partnered with. They need centers badly. Ryan O'Reilly is not the cup winning version of himself. They've got the likes of Colton Sissons, Yuso Parsonin, and Mark Jankowski,
Starting point is 00:04:19 Michael McCarren. Jankowski still? Tommy Novak. Oh, my God. Good for him. They need some centers, yo. Nals McAdrieve, how do you like Broadway? Not yet.
Starting point is 00:04:29 I don't sit for that. Yeah, they'll be ditching, not adding the way they're playing. Yeah. Did you, uh, did you take any of the football last? I watched zero football. Zero football. Jack, you were going to, I'm hating myself. Are you too busy or what?
Starting point is 00:04:42 I've, down in the States the last two years, you didn't. Oh, it just takes over. It's in your face constantly. Yeah. Forgot it was on. Come on. Forgot it was on. Now, see, that can happen to me at times, but this new Thursday show with Jack, we are dialed
Starting point is 00:04:58 on the Thursdays. How is the fission chip? Officials is good. Two pieces. We went with college. Yeah, you got it too. Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:05:05 We went double double double. Double two piece. Oh, right. You owe me a pizza, by the way. Oh, that's right. Redster. A Richmond pub pizza for the Jackster.
Starting point is 00:05:18 I clipped it too. I got the video. Amazing. What was the score? Well, at halftime, it looked really close, Red. But at the end of the game, it sure didn't. Well, you haven't told me the score. So how would I?
Starting point is 00:05:28 by what, like 10? Well, we got a graphic. And it was 10 and a half. It was not 10. 10 and a half. 10 and a half. Right. Sure.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Come in here. It actually did move to four and a half right. It was three and a half the time the bet was made, I believe. No, it wasn't. It was definitely not three and a half. We're going to need that clip. I'm glad you kind of show it. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Really glad you clipped it. By the way, these are our opening comments. We always do for our good friends at McLeodlaw. I was actually texting with Peter Klein this morning. We're going to see him the more. Yeah. Very excited. You're going to see Tammy.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Did I say that different? I said, why did I do that? Opening statements. Come on now. Come on. Hold it together. Nobody statements. Seriously, pender.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Let's go. Peter Klein, look, you got some issues going on. Personal injury. You're paying for insurance. You're not getting paid. What the hell's going on here? Call Peter 403-254-3864. MacLeod-law.com.
Starting point is 00:06:24 They're on the social medias as well. Or mediums. Media? Media. Yeah. at McLeod Law, LLP, personal injury, of course, disability insurance claims as well. He's your go-to guy on that. Why would they refuse to pay you?
Starting point is 00:06:38 You've been paying for these benefits. They're literally, it's the peace of mind that you paid for. Get them. Talk to Peter if you're getting screwed around. It's the peace of mind you paid for. Also, Shane King, partner in the litigation and dispute resolution group. You've been terminated. You've got rights.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Make sure you're being treated appropriately and fairly as the law. law requires. Also, Shane, not going to bog you down with the legal mumbo-jumbo. Just a practical approach, playing language. Let's go. McLeod law, no matter what the issue is, whether your challenge is business or personal, they're in it with you, professionals with a common goal, helping clients meet their goals. We're going to see Tammy, we're seeing Peter tomorrow. I asked him about dress code. We're going to an event. His advice to me was don't dress like a lawyer, which I thought was interesting. I can't because I don't have. I don't feel like you got many lawyer outfits anymore. You're playing days. You might have had something you
Starting point is 00:07:28 wear in a courtroom. Yeah, I never looked good in it, but I could have wore something. Yeah. Now, were you not infamous for like five-day road trip, like one suit, two undies, like just like travel bag, not even a suitcase? I don't even understand how people packed correctly. Just less is more. Guys would read the GQ magazine and they'd have the fancy suit bag.
Starting point is 00:07:50 So that their teammates could see them get it all folded up on a plane. Yeah. Look sharp on the bus. Where to go? Check out my Cumberbund. Dude, you're like you're literally on a flight to Edmonton at 1 a.m. What are you doing? Is that a good change, you think?
Starting point is 00:08:05 Like we've seen some. I think it's already started. I think it's already started. Like the NBA guys do whatever they want. I'm not suggesting. Football for sure. I think what, Victor Wimbuniam always comes in dressed up with some crazy thing.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Baseball, nobody even, you come to go. You don't see him. Yeah, you don't see. Never seen him get off the bus in baseball. But hockey's still like, you go away the suits kids are tired. Look how sharp they look. Yeah, look at these good young kids. There was a lot of Don Cherry behind that. Oh, he loved it.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Yeah, yeah. No, you're right. But why did it? Well, you know what? Let's not discount the power of that intermission slot on Saturday nights. That was a national, cultural eight minutes of the week. It was, you had to watch it. You could disagree with every single thing he said and you'd still be wildly entertained.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Or you're like, yes, yes, give me more. Yes. I mean, he just was a great entertainer. I'm not suggesting that he's right about everything. But like, if you just looked at a TV product is like, is he entertaining? Oh my God, yeah. Him and Ron would get into it. Kind of miss that.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I mean, I, but not the suits. But yeah, there were some takes I didn't agree with. He also didn't like people from other places necessarily. Oh, he's sticking Russia. I don't have a good Canadian boy. That's part of being the entertainer. But I think it was entertaining. Always.
Starting point is 00:09:26 My good buddy, Marty. We had a hell of a tilt last night in the NHL. We'll get to that in the Pind Report. And Sly, are you ready to take the stage? Hi, guys. Oh, hey, Dean. How are we doing? What are we starting?
Starting point is 00:09:37 You're good. Hang on. What time is the 10 am. Show. Friday is Hawaiian shirt day. So, you know, if you want to, go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt and jeans. And I see Jack is wearing it. Look at it. Look closer.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Can you see? I can see. Is it beautiful? It's very nice. Yeah. Very happy, Jack. I love it. I'm ready for this game this weekend.
Starting point is 00:09:58 It's a big one. It is the game of the year for them. Oh, another game of the year. My goodness. What a role they're on. Yeah. Because now you could say,
Starting point is 00:10:06 oh, they beat the commanders. That was last week, right? Yeah, when the commanders lost again last night. So what are they? Are they,
Starting point is 00:10:12 you know, it's not. And here's the thing. They've owned Lamar and they're getting points. It's like, if they don't win here, I got serious questions about the Steelers.
Starting point is 00:10:23 You already have serious questions about the Steelers. I've played the, perfectly. We got our football picks today, Dean. It's just, I've found the happiness edge. It's still good. You're very mean to Jack. I love to his Steelers. But you really, you can't let him enjoy anything nice. If you can't tease your buddies about the teams, you're not good. There's seizing, but then there's just brow beating and just kind of insult.
Starting point is 00:10:42 You got a lot of math off the mat at some point. Why are you so stupid, Jack? There was one brow beating, I want to say three weeks ago, but he's kind of proven to be more right than I am about the Steelers, which often you don't see with the hardcore fans. Like last year the whole Kenny picket preseason. You told me they were the worst team in the division. Last year. No, this year.
Starting point is 00:11:02 I think they would have been, yeah. Cleveland was a disaster. It was rough. Yeah. It was rough. It was a sound beating. Well, and it was weird because they go to Russ when they're four and two. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yeah. What are you doing? But Tomlins obviously knows what he's doing. He is a genius. He is a genius. So we'll see if they could be Baltimore. They own Lamar. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:11:23 One of like four awesome. some games this weekend. So many good games. So many good games. So many good games. So last night, the football game that you missed. I did watch it. You didn't miss much of anything. It was, I think Eagles missed three field goals. Yeah, poor Jake Elliott or not consecutively, then two were back to back. It was not great. Bad weather. No, not really. It was a little breezy, like 10 mile an hour wins at one point. What's with kickers? Well, they're either really good or their shit. They've been really good till lately. And Jake Elliott, like, if you're looking for a pool boy someone to, you know, a little labor around the house.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Like he might be available for employment real quick here. That was an awful night. But then. Seven points left on the table. And no one likes them to begin with. Yeah, four or five minutes left. Sequin Barclay runs one in. I was go.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Then runs in another one. And then it was a flood. It was flood. Then it was Bob's your uncle. Yes. But it only ended up. And I had, it was four points. But then they, garbage time for the.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Garbage time touchdown, Daniels. Tried for a two point. Yeah. So they got within the, that was good. I liked that. Do you have that final score, Jack? That's flashed that final score for Rett's trying to get a pizza off here. I feel like that.
Starting point is 00:12:31 It's tough for Jack, though, because I am playing him in fantasy this week. And I had not a whole lot to speak of with Sequin last night until he ran in two in the last five minutes or so. Right. Yeah, I was ready to move off my team when I saw that. A quick 32 points for Seikwan. Oh, is it ended up that many? Because the yard is huge. And really, I think he was on pace for about 100 at the half and no touchdowns.
Starting point is 00:12:58 And he got tackled at the one in Jamarra. Yes. A tush push in and you're like, ha ha ha. And then second half, it was like two monster breakaway plays. Yeah. Do we have that stat how many times he's been tackled at the one? It's a lot. It was 10 before last night.
Starting point is 00:13:14 And it was 11 when you got to the house and they actually marked him down at the half yard line. And only three of the 10, I guess three of the 11 now, they've actually gone back to him and he's had the touchdown. All the other times they go to the quarterback hurts and it's touch, push in six. You said yesterday. He's probably MVP without those. You think about that if it's 10 or 11, even if half of those go in. That's another five touchdowns. Yeah, that would be my math.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Yeah. It's pretty good. Fellas. What? Get your helmet on. It's a game day. It's the Nashville Predators. I know you guys were kind of talking about it.
Starting point is 00:13:49 We tried to do it. It didn't work about you. This is shaping up great for the flames. Real good. Is it? Yeah. Okay, good. I'm going to tell you why.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Please. I went deep, deep deeper and deeper. Into the game notes this morning. I was looking at the game notes too. The flames on Fridays. One and O. Correction. Flames on Hawaiian shirt day.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Flames on Hawaiian shirt day, one and all. That's right. Fellas are feeling it. Flames on games when they've had two days of rest, two and all. And today is Hawaiian T-shirt Day. So you add that all together. And the flames coming off of.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And it's guaranteed wind night. And you know what? They're not wearing the blasties. Everyone loves the blasties. They're one and two in the blasties. They're four and one in their home reds. God, I love this reds. That was the red Lanny hoisted the cup in, friends.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I feel bad for Nashville. coming into the buzzsaw that is this flames team on two days rest on a Friday. The saddled. Oh, man. Intimidating place to play. Wow. And you think of all these revenge games, these spots. Like there's going to, how many money on the board tonight, fellas.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Justin Kirkland, the Nashville Predators draft. That's right. Against his old. A decade later. Revenge is best served cold. Dan Lambert. Four years as an assistant. Who?
Starting point is 00:15:17 That scared me about who. Sorry. That's okay. And then of course, Tyson Perry, they were helping scratch in it. Well, he might be able to scratch in that later. Nashville, one win in their last six. Keep it up. But points in three straight.
Starting point is 00:15:32 So, you know, however you want to look at. Mixed messages, Dean. 1-3 and 3 on the road. Somehow they have the number one penalty kill in the national hockey league. Do you see that? Nashville? Nashville has the number one penalty kill and the 12th ranked power play. Jesus, they're a massive 5-15.
Starting point is 00:15:48 And that's odd. I know. Hmm. I have to do some digging into that. Why would that? I think it was in their last six games. They've allowed two power play goals against. And they were both in the same game against Florida.
Starting point is 00:16:06 And the power play, I think, is cooled off. I think you're over for in the last couple of games. But 91.5% plus 21.4%. Oh, math. Oh, God. That's pretty good. It's pretty good. 90.
Starting point is 00:16:17 It was 21. it's more than 100. I know that. It is. Flames don't like that math game, by the way, the add the power play to the penalty kill. It doesn't go well for them. So anyway, that's kind of the story.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Do you want to know where they rank at five on five scoring in the NHM? I would now with that trotted out. I think you could guess it. Is it 30, 30, 30 somewhere in there? 30 seconds. 30 second, okay. When you have the top penalty kill in the league and a top third power play and your one point out of last in the NHL, you suck five on five.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And they, for every goal, they score at five on five, they're allowing essentially two. That's gross. And most of the game, by the way, for those not familiar, played five on five. That's what you want to be good at. Yeah. Special teams are fun, but you only get a few opportunities tonight. A lot of five on five out there. Come on Bruno.
Starting point is 00:17:05 And the thing is, you hear coaches saying that. We just like to play a little bit more five on five. Brunette would be the other way. If we could just spend a little more time on the PK. My Rav call penalty. You know, I'd like to really interrupt the flow of the game. like a few more calls. You like the rest to get really involved here.
Starting point is 00:17:17 They jump on the ice. Let's get a penalty. I don't want to get these lines rolling. And let's just get the special teams guys. Yeah. They're not crazy. And I guess when you think about Marsha So and Stamcoast and that maybe, okay, so the power play would be all right. Pedal.
Starting point is 00:17:30 What did you say? Stamcoz only has eight points four and four. Yeah. So worst in the league at five on five. Worst in the league, 30 seconds. They have 0.48 goals. For every goal they allow at 5 on 5. That is.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Dog shirt. Less than half. That's no good. No good. No good. Not great, Bob. Let's get to the insider hotline and presentation of Crystal Waters plumbing and heating.

Our insider, TSN Hockey Insider, Darren Dregger, joins us on a Friday. Dregs, how we do, you look a good, buddy. Look at you, new goggles there? No, you know what they are? They're cheaters. They're not even, and it bugs me because,
Starting point is 00:18:45 I've been to the eye doctor several times, and apparently my eyesight is still fine. I don't need glasses, but because I use them so much with the screens and everything else, it bugs me that so I'm maybe 18 inches away from my laptop from the camera. I can barely see you guys. And I want to see you. I mean, you're three good-looking dudes here. So these are just cheaters. Maybe you need to go back to that eye doctor.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Try out. Does she stress that? With some grease on your camera. What's that? I set you up for that. No, that's a good weekend ahead. I got up super early this morning and put the pork shoulder on the pit boss.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Oh. Here we are. We were just saying yesterday, it's brown liquor and slow cooking meat season. I'm good at that. Apparently, if you start with liquor and then switch to beer, you're okay. But if you do it the other way, then that's when the runaway start to happen. So it seems to go. I was studying with Rett in a group chat the other day.
Starting point is 00:19:53 We are fantasy football deadlines approaching. People are trying to bribe each other with brown liquor. Wrette had quit brown liquor but said, I'll give you McCaffrey and I think I'm back on the brown liquor. It's that time of year. Yes, absolutely. I ruined one Christmas because of brown liquor. It wasn't my fault. It was the brown liquor.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Maybe push her away. We got to try it again. Yeah. It's just like quitters around here? Yeah. Another thing we discussed, I think it was yesterday, is Rhett is the only guy who can ghost the crowd at his own house party. Where is he? Oh, he just went to bed.
Starting point is 00:20:27 You guys go to bed. Nighty night. That's fine. So when I moved to this house, the house that I mean like four years or so ago, I purposely rebuilt my entire garage. It's a nice street car garage, but I fully insulated and put the potlights, the big screen TV. Of course, you've got to have the fridge and all of that stuff and epoxy of the floor. And my wife said, why are you doing all this until the first family holiday? And then I wasn't actually in amongst the crowd.
Starting point is 00:21:01 I was in the garage. I was watching TV. A man cave. Yeah, she figured it out. Yeah. See? The great ones make it look easy, Dre. The great ones need to just have a way of doing things.
Starting point is 00:21:14 I mean, in no particular, we got a lot of anything we can talk about today. But we were just talking about Nashville. They're here tonight. They lose in Edmonton an extra time last night. But I was going through notes this morning and I had to, I'm not great. My brain, it takes a long time. And even at the best times when it's at full clip, it doesn't work very well. The predators who are near the bottom of the standings have the number one penalty kill and the 12th rank power play.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Yeah. So you would think, okay, so you have both sides of. the game of hockey kind of figured out, but five on five, 32nd, which is a big reason why they are. 32 teams still? I think there's still 30. So long, okay.
Starting point is 00:21:52 That's a tough one. I don't know what you pull from that, but I mean, I don't know. I mean, I saw that stat either yesterday the day before and I was like, I actually had to double check because I didn't think that could be real, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:08 But no, it's, it's, it's legit. I mean, I guess if you're Bruno, you're trying to draw the positives out of it, the coaching staff in that. Okay, well, special teams is working. So obviously we need to focus five on five. The problem is, and I'm not making excuses for any team, where do you practice that? You know, like nobody has practiced ice anymore. Teams are literally adding drills. Imagine this, Rhett.
Starting point is 00:22:37 You're kind of limping out there for a morning skate. you're just trying to get the legs moving a little bit warm up. You know, some guys consider it optional. Now teams are throwing drills into their morning skates. Oh, really? Yeah, because they, just because of the condensed schedule with the Four Nations coming up and then next year it'll be worse. They're taking 14 days out of, out of the calendar.
Starting point is 00:23:00 You know, I mean, they're going to be stretches next year where teams are playing five games in seven days. Oh, and we just watched the flames fifth and eight in Vancouver on Tuesday. Awful. Why is this okay? As a fan and as a player and as a league, I mean, I get the Olympic here. Okay. Maybe. Why is it okay? Because it's the most, we all know, as physical as sport as you can play, as fast and physical, it has way more games. You know what I mean? NBA guys just decide to take freaking days off left and right.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Is that what's going to, that's what's coming. That's what fans are going to get because of this. Because if Connor McDavid decides, you know what, I need a day. He won't because he's a hockey player and he's committed to play. But it's going to change because the culture of hockey is changing. And it's coming. And that's what fans are going to get. You're going to go to a game.
Starting point is 00:23:55 You bought a ticket. No Badaard. Yeah. Yeah. And those guys, well, we'll see you on Bader. But I mean, those guys are the guys that don't get a break during these major events. That's what I mean. They're going to be on those teams.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Yeah. I got to come back. and play the next game. And Pierre LeBrun did something in insider trading, but it made me chuckled because Canada and the U.S. went to the national hockey league and wanted to expand the roster, whatever the hell they wanted to do. And the league said, no, you can't, you can't do that. And the reason they wanted to do it is because they're worried that if one of the last
Starting point is 00:24:33 cuts books a holiday and somebody gets hurt, they're not, you know, I mean, is that guy giving up his holiday? well, probably. I mean, some players do it for All-Star, not all, but some do it. But the whole thing and what's most curious, so the reason I got on this this week, and obviously it's a bit of a hot button for you too, Rhett, and you can appreciate it because, okay, you're playing those games, you're traveling. Where's the recovery from a player perspective?
Starting point is 00:25:00 I mean, nobody wants to practice other than the coaches and the general managers, because like Bruno, he wants to figure out what the hell is going on five-on-five. with the National Predators. But this was slipped into a presentation on Tuesday to the general managers. And the only reason I found out about it was one of the GMs was smart enough to write down on a piece of paper. It was a line in a presentation that said, oh, by the way, expect the average number of games next season to go up to like 3355, 335 to 335 over a 70.
Starting point is 00:25:39 stretch. All right. And the manager at the time is like, I don't know how we're doing this. So then I go over to the Players Association because to your point, who's allowing this? They didn't know. PA didn't know. So now they're going to crunch the numbers and see if that's right. But the PA is hand in hand with the NHL because it's growth of the game.
Starting point is 00:26:00 And there has to be an Olympic break. And I don't know why they want to push ahead with the All-Star, but apparently they do. So there's an All-Star and Olympic such. an easy thing to get rid of in my opinion. I don't understand the, again, it has to be a financial benefit to the league or they're not going to do it. At some point. But imagine you're going out there for a morning skate and you've already, we've already established what the hell that that week looks like. You're tired. But some guys, they like the morning skate. It's part of their routine. They just go out for a quick twirl. And wow, the head coach is firing a couple of
Starting point is 00:26:37 practice drills into the equation because you haven't had time to match up and tune up for the night that you're about to face. I mean, that's what they do. Interesting, though, actually. So I don't know if this is a good comparison. I always said it when I retired, the goalies. You're on the road and you play in Colorado and then Phoenix. So you got your starting goal.
Starting point is 00:26:59 You always give him the second day off, but he's traveling anyway, and he's there, and he's at the rink, and he's going through all the hell that you have to go through to do. it, why not play him back to back and give him the Tuesday off? And now he's got a three or four day event. A morning skate. Oh, that's interesting. My question would be to everyone is maybe morning skates are the practices. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Well, they are in certain cases. You know what I mean? Take the day off before. Yeah. All day. Don't go to the rig. Yeah. Actually accomplish something with that.
Starting point is 00:27:32 Yeah. Give your body that rest. Because night, like you said, a bunch of guys want to skate in the morning. So if you practice day before, you're practicing again, morning skate, you're on the ice three times in less than 24 hours or in about, why not give them that day off and actually have a practice? Practices aren't that long. And I'll bet you the conditioning side of things.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Very rarely is there a conditioning aspect to practice nowadays anyway, just because of the schedule. You're probably not, I don't, there would have to be, that might be the way it goes. I don't like it. I don't like what you're saying, but I don't like it because they're practicing the day before and then having another practice for a morning skate. If you're only having practice the day of the morning skate, it might be an effective way to
Starting point is 00:28:18 maybe. Well, just to put a cap on it so you guys can fully understand how ridiculous is that I didn't know this, but it makes sense. So when general managers make requests for what their week looks like, when they go through the scheduling with the National Hockey, the majority of them want to jam up March and April. play as many games as possible in March and April. And it seems pretty obvious, I guess, that they would want to get tuned up for the playoffs, right? I mean, that's what you're doing.
Starting point is 00:28:48 But they don't want to play in October. And I know that the league considered starting next season in late September, and then had to squash it essentially because of network commitments, right? ESPN is up to a, you know what, in Major League Baseball. And so that's not going to work. So you're going to see a lot more games in October to start 25, 26. They just don't have a choice. They don't have enough calendar days to get it all in.
Starting point is 00:29:17 So, and again, this is because the Olympics. We've sort of, we're on both opposite ends of the spectrum on this show regarding four nations. Like I think this is a necessary evil. They need to build best on best. This isn't at all the finished product, but a necessary first step towards a good World Cup of hockey. Is the pinnacle for the league to not even be at Olympics,
Starting point is 00:29:35 but to have the World Cup bigger and better than, the Olympics. We don't need them because interrupting your season in the middle is no good. You know, I remember World Cups of hockey being played in September when it had a stage for hockey that, you know, you're not breaking up a season and saying, okay, two of your guys on the team are going to be rammed for two weeks on the other side of the world. The other 21, they have vacation. Like, it's just the middle of season is no good. Yeah, I'm with you. And I don't know what the split is. I was going to say, I bet the majority of NHL owners, not talking managers or coaches
Starting point is 00:30:06 because the managers are part of the decision-making process. So they can sit in the boardrooms with Colin Campbell and Gary Batman and Bill Daly and all the brass of the National Hockey League and easily get brain warped into thinking, okay, yes, it's best on best worldwide. And that's the Olympics. The players want it. Let's just do it.
Starting point is 00:30:27 If you pull every owner in the National Hockey League, I would bet that especially the guys who have been there for a while would say, no, you're interrupting momentum. In certain situations, you're, you're, you're, you're messing around with our gates. But the biggest issue, and this happened in Dallas Stars years ago, you remember? Well, the Islanders, too, think about it. When John DeVaris, you know, got hurt, was that Sosie? I think so.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the biggest issue, aside from the revenue streams and all of that that potentially can be interrupted. The owner is sitting there going, okay, well, let me figure this out. I'm sending my best asset. My top earning asset is going to play best on best of the Olympics. I can appreciate individually why that matters, but as a business person, I lose that player and maybe my playoffs and additional gate revenue just go up and smoke. And it's from an ownership perspective, it's challenging for sure. It's not as if the IFC's cutting a check for 10 million to borrow these guys, right? No, no. That's, that's a bigger part of it for sure. Bigger part of it.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Are you any more excited for it this week? We'll check it with every week because it's like it's coming up in February. So now we're mid-November. What's the four nation leader at for Dregs right now? Well, I get a daily dose of it because LeBron is like doing play by play of everything that isn't happening with Team Canada, right? He's invested in this thing. God love him. And I get the sense from Team Canada management through Pierre that they're just not showing their hand. You know, so we can talk about what's the gold tending group going to look like. You know, our good pal, Andy Strickland from St. Louis is making a case for Colton Perrako on the blue line for Team Canada.
Starting point is 00:32:19 I mean, go down the list. I mean, it's on and on and on. So I'm intrigued, if not amused by it. I'm going to watch. Of course I am. You know, Canada versus the United States. I mean, I'm in on that all day long. And, you know, let's see.
Starting point is 00:32:34 We are going to see, you know, McDavid and Sidney Crosby play on the same team. I mean, who doesn't want that? But I don't know. I don't know that it's going to create the buzz that the league hopes it will. But I do think that it will lead into what's next. And that's a full-fledged World Cup of hockey. And then that'll matter. I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:32:59 All right. I just don't. We just talked about how the Olympics throws a wrench and everything has to tighten up. And all it means to me is you're screwing the NHL product. It's not as good because of the risk of that. Yes. Why isn't the risk of the guy getting hurt at the four nations are concerned? Only at the Olympics were worried about it.
Starting point is 00:33:24 I get that the monies might not be. But if that gate revenue is gone because Connor McDavid, it breaks his ankle at four nations, it doesn't matter whether it's Olympics or four nations. He's out. You're right. You're right. Yeah. It's a fair point. We used to have a saying here, and this is,
Starting point is 00:33:41 it's not breaking news and it's not totally new, but just kind of scanning things. We would call it wild on a Tuesday. And you would go through your schedule and it just seemed like, Jacques Lamar's. Going back to Jacques Lamar and who is Harry Arms, the goalie? Nicholas Baxter. Nick Baxter would come in.
Starting point is 00:33:59 West Walls is back in town. Wild on a Tuesday. Wild on a Tuesday. Two one or one nothing? First two team to two. When's you have to take the points and we'll blow the whistle. And over the last couple of years, we've kind of talked about that dead cap money.
Starting point is 00:34:14 And you've talked about it more than anybody. $15 million. Souter and Priese, they signed those big deals and then they had to buy them out. They're going to have so much dead money. And they are what they are. They are tied with Winnipeg with two regulation losses. As great as Winnipeg has been, they're right there. 11, 2, and 3.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Caprizov is right behind McKinnon in the square. 10 goals, 30 points, and 16 games. And I didn't like the John Hines higher when they let Dean Eveson go. You go back because it was Boudreau, right? Boudreau was sour when he got gassed. And then Everson was sour because he got gassed. Yeah. I just, they're doing a hell of it.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Again, Billy Garon maybe, right? They're doing a hell of a job there, given all of that. because they've got some unreal young talent, and it's Rossi and it's boldy. Oh, yeah. They're an exciting frigging team now. Think about that cap pinch, forcing them to trade Fiala.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Oh, what a tough spot to be in. They turn it into Brock Faber. Yeah. That's a great deal. Not a bad player. I mean, that's what it is. You know, it's never one guy, but imagine the conversation that
Starting point is 00:35:22 Billy Garron would have had to have had with Leopold, the owner of Minnesota while going in there. Oh, by the way, I've got this idea. I want to buy out Parise and Ryan Souter. And we're going to take it right between the eyes for the next few years. But when the dust settles, you know, you're paying players that aren't, but when the dust settles, we're going to come out of it and we're going to be a better team. You know, I mean, that's credit to Bill of Guerin. That's a credit to ownership for trusting his management to do what's right. And sometimes you've got to spend money to make money.
Starting point is 00:35:59 And evidently, Billy Garron knows what he's doing as an NHL general manager. You guys, I'm sure, pay closer attention than most media and certainly fans do in the east of the Minnesota well, obviously because of the conference. Caprizov is a superstar in the national occupier. He just is. And we barely talk about him nationally. Can you imagine if he's in Montreal? Like, oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Yeah. Yeah, I mean, and how about the deal for Gustafson? You know, I watch that game last night. I mean, this guy just stops bucks. That's all he does. I mean, you know, Billy Garon, and that's it. Overall, I'm just, I'm trying to formulate the thought on, on, because I don't want to resell Billy. Like, every general manager makes mistakes.
Starting point is 00:36:47 And to be frank, he hasn't won anything yet. He's made some very bold decisions, but he is the, here's what I like best about Billy. I'll get to my point, is. He's a gunslinger. That's what he is. He knows what the end goal is. The end goal is to win a championship. And yeah, I mean, he's got to pay close attention to the finances.
Starting point is 00:37:07 And yeah, he had to convince his owner to take it in the team financially and all of that. But at the end of the day, he also knows what he's going to be judged by. And that's, okay, this is a good team. If they get bounced in the first round of the playoffs, guess he's going to be held accountable. I'm not saying he's in the crosshairs because he probably. isn't, but that's where he'll get to because he's not afraid to do what you have to do sometimes
Starting point is 00:37:32 to make your team better. Final year of that pain, 14.7 million in the Parisé suitor buyouts. Can you just explain what that means? So essentially, what's the cap this year, drags? Like, 87, 87, and a half? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, like they have more than 20% of
Starting point is 00:37:48 their cap dedicated to guys going away. Don't be here. Stop showing up. We'll keep paying you to go somewhere else. And that, essentially, their internal caps closer to $70 million than it is, $87 million, and they have one of the most competitive hockey clubs in the NHL. Because of the way that Souter and Prizé were structured with all the bonuses they had, there are some years that are incredibly punitive on the buyouts and others that are not.
Starting point is 00:38:11 This is the last punitive year. Next year, it's less than $2 million. The year after less than two year after less than two, right now it's almost $15 million, and they're good. But to your point, Triggs, that's quite a, okay, I'm going to go down the hall and talk to the owner. I need a hundred million bucks to pay people to go away. Not to help our team to maybe change the culture and get these guys out of here. Like that's wild.
Starting point is 00:38:31 It is. But look, I mean, you know, the math just didn't slap these guys upside the head one day. I mean, that's why you have a staff. And Billy's a sharp guy. And, you know, you would forecast and make sense of the transaction the way it was managed. Because you also know when you look at expiring contracts coming up for the Minnesota while, they're going to start paying guys. And they're going to start paying guys big numbers coming up.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Is this one more? One more. And he's a guy that'll slot in between dry sidle and pastor neck. He's going to be 12, 13, 14, because the cap keeps going up. And honestly, if you're doing an MVP vote today, he's the top three guy. Has to be. Has to be. Like, he's right there with McKinnon and points.
Starting point is 00:39:11 And his team's played much better than McKinnons. And everybody's biased to be. But you listen to some of the veteran players on that Minnesota Wild team talk about Capricet. Of course, they're biased. They're around them all the time. But it's not hard to find. teammate who says he's the best in the league. And that's saying a lot when you think of what McDavid is capable of.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And Sid is still right up there for me. And I mean, go down the list. But, you know, these are guys with Ziparrollo go down the list who played a ton of hockey who recognized the skill set of this guy. Boy, and you think about that team. I don't think, like you say, in the East, I know you guys don't think about the Minnesota Wild because we're close to it and we don't think about them. It's a great rank.
Starting point is 00:39:53 It's a great atmosphere. I've been to a game there. The crowd obviously is a state of hockey. The ranks sold out. They've got a great team, solid ownership. Yeah. It should be one of the prizes of the entire league. They miss one thing. They haven't had a playoff run, right?
Starting point is 00:40:08 You look back, it was probably what, since like Rollison, like it's been ages since they've gone deep. Yeah. If you want to make waves, you kind of got to be relevant in the spring. Carolina is an even more forgettable market, but because they've been in the final four and the final eight so often, they're front of mind with us. But that's the only in the missing in my mind. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:26 What about Carolina? Looks like they did the right thing by hanging on to Natchez. Oh, my God. Like that guy, I mean, there's another player, right? You know, I do the show with Ferreiro twice a week, and he loves Marty Natchez. Loves him more this year because of what we're seeing. But, you know, he reminded me the other day as we were talking about the Carolina Hurricanes of how Natchez was frustrated, right?
Starting point is 00:40:49 He didn't think that Brenda Moore was giving him enough ice. And then it gets down to that old, well, okay, the coach says, you want more ice, you got to play better. Well, give me more ice and I'll produce more. I mean, it's that back and forth. But they found the sweet spot with Marty Naches. And I'm more impressed with the Carolina Hurricanes this season than I think I've been in a long, long time.
Starting point is 00:41:13 Because I didn't think that they were going to fall off the map this year. I have too much respect for Brenda Warren and the talent that they have there. But given the pieces that were marched out, I did feel like there was going to be some growing pains, that there was going to be a shift. And for the most part, there really hasn't been. There hasn't been there. I still wonder about their goal tending.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Maybe that's unfair on the moment, given, you know, how collectively they're playing. But the one thing that continually impresses me, and again, I'm just given to all the credit to Rod Brindamore, they play the same way. It doesn't matter if it's the first line or the fourth line, man. They're just north-south, get going. Everything is about pace.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Everything is about the forecheck. Stay physical, grind them down, and they play that way to a tee. And that's impressive because there's some pretty good players. There are teams out there with really, really good coaches, but coaches that aren't able to get that message delivered or heard on a consistent pace. The natious, I guess, public stuff where his dad came out, there was a lot of like, oh, he could be a center.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Like, is this a fit for the flames? Oh, if he's a young centerman, you could lock him in. The ask was high. He's not playing center, but he's been incredibly dynamic. And that's, I mean, as Craig Conner moves forward, it's all about can I find a young center? Can I find a young center? You got a 35-year-old back on 34-year-old cadre and a bunch of question marks after that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Like just, do you see, like, when he's producing like this, he's just a winger now? You take it 30 draws all year. That's a winger. Yeah, I still think it's a little bit early for that. I mean, he's still relatively young, right? But he's got a lot more to go. I probably wouldn't take care of success. And end of the day.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Well, okay, let's just back up here a little bit. What's the statute of limitations on dad? Like, honest to God. Like, is it bantam hockey? Like, at what point does? I think it. Apparently it's worse, yeah. Like, seriously.
Starting point is 00:43:24 You know, I get it. I understand it. I mean, you never stop being the parent and you never stop wanting what's best for your kid. That kind of looks right. Huh? Like, she might have been right. Dad looks right. It's like play this guy in the top six.
Starting point is 00:43:36 I'll produce. Well, now it's happened. Chicken egg, I get it. But like, dad wasn't wrong. Yeah, well, that's fine. But maybe, you know, just leave Marty to have that conversation with his coach. How about just leave that to the player and the coach? the manager and if you want to talk if you want to talk your son off the ledge after every game
Starting point is 00:43:55 that's your job Warner does not agree with you whatsoever you got you got to be on these coaches drag you yeah I'm not saying I wasn't my kid played a pretty high level hockey and there were some conversations or text messages that if I could have a mulligan I would take it I would take it Our rule. Did you use the 24-hour rule? Yeah, for the most part.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Did you ever let them? Did you ever let him know? I'm going to take the 24-hour rule, so look forward to here. I'm going to tell you a quick story here. So I was doing the Winnipeg-Anaheim series, whatever year that was, Winnipeg got swept by the ducks. And my son was in triouts, AAA tryouts here in Whitby. And, I mean, it's a weird setup.
Starting point is 00:44:50 here in Whitby. I don't know if they've changed in Ontario, but the triouts are in spring, as opposed to when they should be in fall, when the kids have grown and all of this. And so my wife has to take my kid, and he was coming off a pretty good year, so he shouldn't have been on the bubble,
Starting point is 00:45:07 but one of the assistant coaches tip me off and said, hey, I'm just giving you the heads up here. And so I go to send another buddy a text, and I said, I think that C word, is going to cut him today. And I thought I was sending it to a buddy and then to my wife, so make sure you're there while I sent it to the head coach.
Starting point is 00:45:35 So this C word you're referencing. Yeah. Coach, see as coach. Yeah, that coach. Anyway. It's key words used on the show very liberally. Feel free to let it. No, no, he made the team in fairness.
Starting point is 00:45:48 There you go. It was a bit of an icebreaker. It was a bit of an icebreaker because the guy said, hey, well, like, what made you think that he was on the bubble? Well, now I can't, I can't sue the assistant coach. I don't know. I'm traveling unstressed out. It's funny.
Starting point is 00:46:07 The people closer to the hockey industry, you'd be like, okay, they'll be more rational. Yeah. I worked in Penticton for four years. We must have had like 15 former players kids roll through. They're the same psycho hockey dads as the guys never picked up a stick. It's wild. Dads cannot get this. We need to come up with some sort of dad hockey lobotomy
Starting point is 00:46:24 or remove a part of your brain so you can be rational about your children playing sports. Yeah, good luck. You'll be bazillionaire if you can come up with us. Who was the worst? Carl Lindrosse was legendary. Oh, God, was, yeah. For being hands-on.
Starting point is 00:46:36 I can give you... I could give you 15 names, and I'm not going to. But there's some pretty big-name players whose dads are pretty involved. It's one of that guys in Toronto, right? One of those kids? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:46:56 He much maligned guy in his last year. Okay, okay, all kidding aside. It's Paul Mariner. That's who you're talking about. And the reason I mention his name is because when I was reporting on Martin's last contract extension, I got to chuckle out of it. But Leifes fans were relentless. So every time I tweet something that was minor friendly in the negotiation updates,
Starting point is 00:47:19 they'd call me Paul because I'd get it. Thanks, Paul. Thanks, Paul. Because I thought I was doing Paul Marner's work. Yeah, part of the PR team. We never knew. That's amazing. How does that pay? No, I did. Not well enough. So walk us through this. So the pit boss, how much time? What are we, when the meat comes off, how are we, what are we doing here? Yeah, it's a bit of an ordeal, but it's, I enjoy it. I probably have another three more hours of the smoke. I'm going to get it to about 200, okay?
Starting point is 00:47:53 And then, and I've been basting with apple juice and a little bit of apple cider on the hour. So I'll get it to about 180 and then I'll wrap it. And then I'll bring it up to about 200, 205, then shut her down and let her rest for about 45 minutes. And then it's just fall off the bone. And then I dump a little, what is it called, sweet raise barbecue. And then you get the meat sweats for the rest of the night. That's genius. Settle into the couch.
Starting point is 00:48:28 I was going to ask you what was up for the weekend. I think it's pretty clear. Bills are Chiefs? Chiefs. Argos or Blue Bombers. What's that? Argos or Blue Bombers. I will never in my life cheer for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
Starting point is 00:48:48 And I don't care, but I'm just. saying Argos. Argos. It feels like there might be something there. A deep-seated emotion like that seems awfully.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I'm just going to say. Where's it from again? Good luck with that. Meet. Appreciate you, pal. All right, fellas. Have a great weekend. There you go. See you. There and Drager. Good guy. Crystal Clearcallegrody.com is the website
Starting point is 00:49:17 for, of course, Crystal Waters. plumbing and heating, your crystal clear choice for all residential plumbing, heating, and cooling services. And yeah, we keep saying it and sounds like, something's going to go sideways. It's your furnace. It's your hot water tank, whatever it is. Just it's in your head now, right? Crystal waters.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Crystal waters. You got somebody in the business. Barn burner customers, you need a new hot water heater, AC or furnace, receive discounts and upgrades of up to a thousand bucks in value. That's not nothing. Crystal waters, plumbing and heating. Crystal clear choice for your home comfort. 403, 219, 4100.
Starting point is 00:49:52 That's pretty elaborate. I was going to say, that's not his first time. This is a well-traveled path that's had success before. Yeah, he knows what he's doing. He's delivered the goods before. Dustin Wolf on the starters net. It's gate, no surprise there. I looked this morning, again, just getting into the,
Starting point is 00:50:13 so they have UC Soros listed at 511-180. I think he's probably bigger than Wolf, yeah. And Wolf 6 foot, 166 pounds. They had Wolf in the National Anthem next to guys that are six feet. He ain't six feet. But honestly, at this point, don't care. Are you stopping the puck? Yes, you are.
Starting point is 00:50:34 How well? As good as anyone, even strength. That's awesome. The power play in front of them being better. You guys want some trivia, some fun facts? Are they fun? I'm in for that. Are they depressing facts or fun facts?
Starting point is 00:50:49 I don't think they're overly depressing. They're just kind of stuff. Okay, some stuff? Yeah, just kind of some stuff. Who's leading the Calgary Flames and goals? Any idea who's got the team lead in goals as we sit here through whatever it is, 16, 17 games? Hugh B tied with someone? It's Jonathan Huberto.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Yeah. Six goals. Coronado and Cadre have five. Because I was looking at Minnesota, or I was Nashville. It's like, oh boy, they don't have anybody over a point of game. It's not where the flames are at. Yeah, Rasmus Anderson still leading the team with 11 points and 17 games. No one's really jumped up to grab that.
Starting point is 00:51:33 And Hubert O has six for the team lead. Remember when they had 16 goals for the first three games? Yeah. That was a long time ago. They're no 24th in goals scored per game in the NHL. So bottom third. And yeah, I kind of think this is more what they are. It's going to be hard work and lower scoring, not 6.5, like you saw on opening night.
Starting point is 00:51:52 Probably. Yeah, probably. We've been on the Joel Hanley watch. Handley watch. Is he in? Right? I feel like we're, I don't think so. Oh, I was. Well, Hanley Watch continues then. Yeah, it looks as the stakeout continues, boys. Could be proven wrong. But based on the lines we saw and we'll take a look here,
Starting point is 00:52:10 but it looks like tonight will be his ninth straight, healthy scratch. This year, the Joel Hanley line. played 1036 against Winnipeg. Jets. 1443 in Vegas. Loss. And that's it. Two games.
Starting point is 00:52:27 I played 32 last year. About 24, 25 minutes of ice. Total. Yeah, not per night. Yeah. But he's here, Rhett. He's been here the whole time. He's been here the whole time.
Starting point is 00:52:39 His salary's not high, but for the amount of ice he's getting, it's very, very efficient. It's a nice rate. He's a great hourly rate. He's played a half hour. made like a third of a million dollars unbelievable wow yeah i hadn't thought of that efficient why you guys shit talking handling i've been a big support i've been a big supporter and all of a sudden you guys are turning the screws to him you've been a witch of who putting the screws turn in the screws turn the screws on it turn to the screws on you're doing on you're doing i'm ordering a pizza for jack
Starting point is 00:53:10 because he's a i was going to say i'm talking to ret and it's going right through yes you can tell he's doing something. And I just kind of glanced down and I see a food delivery service. Okay, well, that's why I can't get through to the big boy because he's, he's getting some food ordered. What's the one called?
Starting point is 00:53:29 I lost a bet. I'm paying my, good for you. Like, noble. What's the name of that pizza that's got all the flavors on it? The Godfather. Godfather, yeah, that's the one. I think that's what I'll get. There's a special. Should I get the two pizzas and wings special or just order? Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:48 How are we going to give you any advice there? Don't worry. Carry on. Talk about handling. Back to you, dude. Give my back to you. Back to you, Dean. So Andrew Burnett, coach of the Preds.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Bruno. Yeah. He's the fourth coach all time for Nashville. Yeah. We all know Barry Trots was the first. Long time. Who are the other two? Who is that right after Barry?
Starting point is 00:54:16 Coaches? Barry. That's right. is Barry left to Washington. John Heinz. John Heinz. Before Bruno. Bilesma, who was it? No, it wasn't Balsma.
Starting point is 00:54:29 You can record. Oh, I can see his face. One of the winningest coaches in NHL history. American. Peter Labilette. That's right. I knew that. Yeah. That was one of the, I think I did know that, but had totally forgot.
Starting point is 00:54:45 The other thing that I, and Jack may remember this. the Predators were in the Stanley Cup final against Pittsburgh. Yep. Don't have almost no recall on that. And it was tied two games apiece after four. For Sid, that was part of the back to backs, I believe.
Starting point is 00:55:03 Yeah, that was the second of the back to backs. Sharks were the other. And I remember that was the coming out party for Nashville where it was like, hey, this cute little expansion team in a non-hockey market. And as that playoffs went on,
Starting point is 00:55:13 all these national media went through it, everyone was like, oh my God, you got to see a game at Nashville. And this is a hockey market. Don't be fooled. And you look at all these traditions they're doing. They're heckling the goalie. Because you'd see in the catfish and you'd watch the highlights.
Starting point is 00:55:26 But that to me was the arrival is instead of this like, oh my gosh, offer sheet them. They might not be able to afford Shea Weber. It was like, no, no, this is a hockey market forever now. Because remember, I don't know, did you bring this up? I was kind of remembering the care pad, whatever, the swag bag or the thing that they gave to the media had like a bottle of Jack Daniels, a bottle of Advil. I was going to say. They had all that. They know exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:48 that they're doing. Yeah. There are three former predators in the hockey Hall of Fame. Three former Preds in the Hall of. Horstsburg. She as of last week. Shea Weber. Forrestsburg.
Starting point is 00:55:59 Peter Forrestberg. I loved them. Wasn't it one of my favorite players growing up? Like a good player. Never stayed healthy. Korea. All Korea. Well done.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Yeah. See, and you think I'm distracted? I can, I'm multi-time. Well, I know you're distracted, but you did well there. It's going through credit card receipts now. Yeah. Bad, bad. tunnel we've lost him in.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Yeah, submit. The Predators have never had a first overall pick. Okay. Their first year. David Leguant. David Leguant, second overall. Arnaut would have been soon after, right? Uh, no.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Okay. Arna. Well, he's not, what? He was a, was he what, an Oilers pick? Yeah. Oh, no, you're right. And he played in New Jersey, too. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:56:40 I just think of that. Then they had a few in the, the six, seven range. The next highest, fourth overall in 2013, they took Seth Jones. Oh, that's right. He was there. Who they then traded for Ryan Johansson, who they then traded for Alex Galcenaic, who never played a game for them.
Starting point is 00:57:03 How did Matt Dushan arrive there? That was the Ottawa three-way deal with Denver. Because that was how Sam Girard went. Yes, that was a big one. Yeah, that was a big one. And that's how I believe McCar ended up in Colorado. Oosh. Yeah, that's a tough one for the sense.
Starting point is 00:57:18 UC Soros last year, his worst statistical season, still had a 2.86 and a 906 save percentage. Yeah. Worst. That's the low water market. Six years in a row, top six in Vesna votes, which isn't everything, but tells you he's good goaling every year. That's not what it says? That's what it says. So top six.
Starting point is 00:57:42 Well, I mean, I sort of think there's, you could make a list of 10 guys that are hard number one studs. And then after that, you kind of get into platoons. he's one of those guys it has been so recent 10 like I got a list here you want to list no stop he's just Jesus He's got a list that's shitty Sierken Serokee Basilevsky-Bavrovsky Hellebuk
Starting point is 00:58:03 All Mark Swayman Skinner on your Saros No one large from Demko Gusna we need the shirt I was fifth in Vesna voting Sixth in Vesna voting in 1617 Like I didn't even Yeah where's the
Starting point is 00:58:18 Oh, no. How far down? I don't. I like, I, goal is so weird, right? There's only, what? I received two second place votes for the Selke Award. Bang. Be another good one. Top nine, Selke votes, 2024. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:35 And their, and their goaltending story there, we always talk about the Rangers. You go Richter to Lundquist and now to Shasturka. And it's not a lot, and it's not as sexy, but they had Volcun for a five, six, seven year run. Go watch the scrap, folks. then they had Dan Ellis and Chris Mason kicking around for one season. But then Renee came in and took over. That was 13 years.
Starting point is 00:58:57 And now Saros has been the guy for the last, whatever it is, six or seven. Yeah. So that's basically three guys for a 20 year run. Pretty good to go Renee to Saros. And they almost ran that into Asgrove, but be a shark now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Their mascot is named Nash with a G at the start. Ganesh. Gnash. Like Gnachy? A gnashing of teeth. I like Gannock. Gnaki?
Starting point is 00:59:26 It's a good ginnock. So why is it nash? Well, of course, it's the predator, right? You know, we all know the logo. Is he tough? It's a saber-toothed cat. Yeah, that's tough. But doesn't the Oilers have a tough cat?
Starting point is 00:59:38 They got a lynx. I don't know what that Yeti thing is in Utah. I've got a Harvey update, too. I'm getting a little worried about him. So the saber-tooth cat logo it's an homage to a partial smilodon skeleton that was found beneath downtown
Starting point is 00:59:56 Nashville in 1971 during the construction of the first American National Tower. That's pretty good, actually. Shut the front door. So they had the logo before they had the name. Wow. Which I don't know if that's... It could have been in the saber tooths.
Starting point is 01:00:10 They had, they went down to three. They nailed it out. They were going to be the Ice Tigers, the Fury, or the attack. Yeah, they've been. picked the right one. Those suck. Craig Leopold, the team's owner said, what about Smilodon? What about predators?
Starting point is 01:00:26 You know what, boss? He added that to the submissions and it ultimately won. Oh, boy, boss. See, that's why he's a billion. Yeah. So it was a great idea because clearly. Look at the Smilodon. It is a big bastard. Is it? To be careful of these things. Yeah, so that's, so they found one of those suckers. The Ganesh. It was 1971. Great Ganeshers. Look at the thing.
Starting point is 01:00:45 They made it into real life one. Oh, that's scary. It looks No canoos is good canoos. You couldn't outrun this thing online. No, I wouldn't try. What about McMahon Stadium? No, no, no, no, I'm not going to do it. I don't think that that little pet links up at the cultural capital has any chance. I know.
Starting point is 01:01:05 It's a little puppy little kitten compared to Smilodon. And Roman Yosey is a stud. Wow. Honestly, you look at the points. Jim Hanley, Joe Hanley. He's no Joel Hanley. I believe. We do know his first name, so he's got a leg up on that department, too.
Starting point is 01:01:23 Yossi's second rounder in 08, 38th overall. Who did the flames select 13 picks earlier? What year? See that again? 2008. 2008. Roman Yosey goes in round 2, 38th overall. The flames picked in the first round 13 picks prior.
Starting point is 01:01:42 The goalie. Who did they select? Leland Irving. No, he was the first rounder. Well, this is a first rounder. Sorry, what you said? 13 picks earlier in the first round. You said second and I got confused.
Starting point is 01:01:53 I'm not at listening today for everything. Pelican. Craig Nemus. Oh, yes. Yes. Remember, he was writing shotgun with Taylor Hall and Windsor. Oh, yeah. With a championship.
Starting point is 01:02:06 Yeah. So is it just because he's playing with the good player? Is he part of it? He's part of it. He's the driver. That's why Taylor Hall's so good. How do he do? did we trade him?
Starting point is 01:02:18 He flamed out. I saw him in Habitsford. He was trying, but it just wasn't there. You know what? That Bednar guy that's supposed to be such a good coach, he failed him. I don't think he had Bednar there. He was post-Bedner. But damn.
Starting point is 01:02:31 What was the guy before? It was Troy G Ward that Nevis would have had. Do you hug? After every game. Big hug? Big win. It's like all Mark and Swatman. Hockey hugs.
Starting point is 01:02:42 And the last fun fact, because wow, that's a great second round pick. Second round pick. Second round is your key to success. That's where they got Shadeweber too. There's so many good second rounders out there. And remember Daryl, Darrell traded seconds. Thrace. Throwing away like any of sandwiches.
Starting point is 01:02:56 Bottled. The hell of any of us. So good job, Nashville. Great pick. Except they had two picks in the first round that weren't Roman Yosey. Oh, so. Colin Wilson at seven. He played.
Starting point is 01:03:12 Chet Pickard at 18. Chet? No, I know he played. flying a bed just like Brian Chet. So not Calvin Pickard, but Calvin's brother, Chet,
Starting point is 01:03:28 Cal, it's Nashville. You're not going to pick a Chet? It feels natural. Pickard, like, chat, Pickard. How'd Chet do?
Starting point is 01:03:37 I don't think Chet fared very well. Chet didn't do. He was kind of what Calvin was until last year, like number three in an organization. And Calvin might still be that. I think he is. He's had a good six months. You got himself another couple of years.
Starting point is 01:03:51 Chats a goal. Chats a goalie. Back to back goalies for the pick. Well, you know, when you got Chet and Cal, we'll have all this money rolling around. Yeah, we got to get them to share the gear. Hand me down. Are you going to go check the barn?
Starting point is 01:04:02 There'll be some unused use gear there. Hand me down pads. Pickers. What you need? Pickard. Yep, pickard. I bet you check to play mean steel guitar. No.
Starting point is 01:04:17 He wears square-toed boots. he ain't for real wouldn't last five minutes on the pedal steel it's in square with the real ones here at which ones don't wash the cast iron skill it don't do it don't drink a drive you'll spill it that's probably enough eh for uh i've got more did you like that loving these i didn't know there's saber tooth under downtown i didn't either america tower or something yeah smile it on smile it on yep i'm gonna get a tattoo of the smyledon like jailhouse or someone that knows what they're doing you can do it. We have a tattoo at the Christmas party.
Starting point is 01:04:55 Everyone that pops by gets a free tattoo. That is a great idea. We get tattoos at the Christmas show. Jesus. Oh my God. Jack. Idea again. In 2018, Nashville won the president's trophy.
Starting point is 01:05:08 In 2018. Wow. We were, because you remember Buffalo, it's hard to remember. Okay, yeah, the Buffalo had that team. Buffalo won. Nashville had a president's trophy winning team. They beat Colorado in round one and then lost in seven to win a pit. in round two.
Starting point is 01:05:24 What a series of Winnipeg went to round three to play Vegas that year. Vegas. Viva. And they got scared and lost. Ovi got them in the final. They got scared of Ryan Reeves and lost.
Starting point is 01:05:32 Yeah. Some P came out. And then they called it a day. The fountain dances in Washington. I think that's about the time I was like, they should really try to get Gerdano. Would have been a really good. To be fair,
Starting point is 01:05:45 you'd been trying to trade Gio for about a decade. The jets were the perfect spot. And the Predators, remember, I mean, we love Nashville. You love Nashville. And they're a great little story. I do. Yeah, we do. Jim Ballsley tried to take them to Hamilton.
Starting point is 01:06:02 Oh, those are so. Did you do both? It was Nashville. And then Boots del Baggio, he tried to take him to Kansas City. They thought Boots had money. He's a big fraudster. He's a big fraudster. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:14 There's some great stories about all these frauds. Sheister. Yeah. Sheister. There's a real. Yeah. Familiar with a shister, Jack? What's a shylo?
Starting point is 01:06:20 Uh, that's a great question. Jack, you get us a Shylock expert? I don't know if we want it. We got to figure what is this for show. How do I spell shylock? Exactly how it sounds. Oh, he's not good at spelling. Jesus.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Shy with like, okay. So anyway, that's a little, uh, Nashville stuff there for you. The world of Warcraft. Yeah. No, I don't want that. Keep going, Dean. It was a great step.
Starting point is 01:06:59 I'm kind of done with Nashville, but I was, I was realizing as well this morning. You were such a Nashvilleian. Why didn't you pick the Titans for your favorite team? Like you like they can stink. All the bears are just wowing you. They're accused of being a bandwagon jumper if you go to
Starting point is 01:07:11 yeah, I thought that was the whole point of your choice. You know what? You know why? It doesn't feel Tennessee Titans and they get with the light blue and silver. It's like they don't know what the logo is like a flaming thumbtack. Yeah. They don't know what they're doing.
Starting point is 01:07:24 I don't know what it is. What's a tit? What is a Titan? mythical. I can't wait for the pizza to get you. You know what we're wearing, and I noticed this morning? And you can tell me maybe we're not. My t-shirts.
Starting point is 01:07:37 I think we're wearing. Zeri goggles. For good or for bad? Well, he's got one point in his last nine games. Yesterday you were saying you got to give him the bag. And we frigging love the guy. Love the guy, but he's been. Careful with the bag.
Starting point is 01:07:52 He's getting lots of opportunities. We see him every night. He's making plays, but there's one goal, one point in his last nine games. How many opportunities is? nine do uh we're not we're not taking the piss on him i can shanked one wide open net three point field goal last night are we going to scream and yell it i mean they're around the net they're getting opportunity kids you got to support them support the kids not linear it's going to be uh you know fits and spells been using this a lot on and off the air what's that
Starting point is 01:08:24 non linear non linear there's development's not a straight line investments and jobs and development is this. Blood alcohol content. Lumpy. Yeah. And that word. Lumpy is part of your vocab. I hadn't heard you used Lumpy till this year.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Lumpy. The calls me Tubby. Tubby. It's not very nice. No, but like this very conversation is interesting because we like Robert Munich had the article. I want to say two months ago, a month and a half ago. Bobby Germany.
Starting point is 01:08:55 And he's like, pay this guy. Look at all these guys long term. Eight years. Seven million plus. If he's just a really creative 25 goal winger, that's not how you spend your money, boys. But if he's a 30 goal centerman, oh my God, that's not enough.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Like this is what we're seeing tonight for the first time. We're not going to learn everything tonight, but if he can stay at center, that's a very different asset than, like, look at all the wingers they have in the organization. Yeah. There are no centers. If he's a center, that is a huge, huge piece.
Starting point is 01:09:25 If he's not, trade him for a cent. I don't know, if he can. How many people train the centers? What? It's not doing anything. One goal in nine games. Get him out of here. Goggles are off, Dean.
Starting point is 01:09:36 He's like, Zary slander in this show. There's no, we love them. Goggles just came right off. We got to take advantage of our assets here. We've got to. Or they depreciate.
Starting point is 01:09:47 Love the vision, love the confidence, love the creativity. What's his goals expected above French? She and. You want to see if he's good underlines? His, his goals above French fries.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Yeah. Like, another guy and I don't know. Oh, Jesus. You and your bad attitude. Are we wearing Sharon Govich goggles? I'm not. I think he's.
Starting point is 01:10:07 10 games, two goals, no assists. He got. He has not looked himself. Top six minutes the whole way. He's getting power play time. Has not looked himself. What's his goals above? I can't go two at a time here.
Starting point is 01:10:19 Let's see. You know what? That shooting percentage is probably where you should start. Yeah. It's very simple. And we can understand who is due some puck luck and who is. Jack, what are you watching on YouTube over there?
Starting point is 01:10:30 while we're waiting, I'm going to tell you about outdoor dental. Because I know you snore. I was on the last night. I know you snore. Poor shoveler. Should kick you out of the bedroom or what? I didn't know the football game was on. Yeah, because you were out cold probably.
Starting point is 01:10:48 I sleep so good lately. Yeah? Lots of fresh air. Good for you. Outdoor dental. Dr. J. Patel was a few years ago and your brother was part of it. He's like, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to take a leap.
Starting point is 01:11:00 I'm going to make a huge investment in some technology. It's called the Soleil Laser, because I think that's where it's going. And it's no needles, no drills, no stress. It's great for the patients. And he was right. He was bang on. And not everybody has this Soleil Laser. In fact, I think there's maybe two of them in the city.
Starting point is 01:11:20 I could call my brother and ask. You ask them. The Solaya Laser, excellent solution for people that just have a hard time with even a dental phobia, but if it's just a hard thing for you, one to two minutes, you're relaxed, you're comfortable, pain free. Pinder, you've had it. Yep. It's just,
Starting point is 01:11:35 it's a little thing. It just kind of goes in there. It does, it takes, it does everything it needs to do completely pain free. It also can take care of your snoring. Two 15 minute treatments. The roof of your mouth increase the tension in the soft palate.
Starting point is 01:11:50 Because that's what, when you're on the, that's, and boy, with brown, garblin, brown liquor season coming. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:57 Get ahead of this, folks. Get ahead of it is right. Do it now. It's just like putting the glass of water by the bed. You can spend millions like dregs and building up your garage and sleep out there. Or two 50 minute treatments. And it's probably you get it taken care of with your extended benefits through your work.
Starting point is 01:12:18 Non-surgical pain free, reduce snoring. You sleep better. You get more sleep. People around. You're happier. You're more effective. You're more productive at work. You're a happier person.
Starting point is 01:12:25 Why wouldn't you do it? Outdoor. Dental is the website. Better yet, give them a call. Go online. Book an assessment. Get in for it. Just learn more about it.
Starting point is 01:12:34 then you can thank us after. Outdoor dental. Dr. Jay, some brown liquor. Yeah, brown liquor season. It's happening, people. Should get some shirts. Hello, and welcome to brown liquor season.
Starting point is 01:12:49 But this is the writing sale, like, smudged faces, logo. Yeah. What do we got? Yeah, just give me one minute and I'll have four good examples here. Shooting percentage doesn't get talked about enough.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Like, do we think Jonathan Euberos actually better at scoring this year? Or is it a heater? I don't even know if it's a heater. I just think reverting back to his normal. Well, every fourth shot's got in for Jonathan Hebride. Does that sound sustainable or no? No, but so what?
Starting point is 01:13:13 No, no. So what's normal? Well, the normal would be his career shooting average, his career, which is 12.5%. It's half of what he's shooting. Double. So he's been, wow.
Starting point is 01:13:25 You know, I'm not suggesting he hasn't played well, but there's been some puck luck involved would be a safe bet. On the flip side, Igor Sharon Govich, career shooting, 13 and a half. percent he's shooting at seven and a half so he's half of his normal he should have double the goals if he was just shooting at his career average did oh for zary he's 8 percent usually 13 although it's smaller career coronado also 23 percent he's almost every fourth shot going in as well so he's had some
Starting point is 01:13:50 puck clock you know what it is dean what's that it's lumpy it's yeah it's not guys are up linear it's not it's absolutely have everybody on the lumpy summer going to be up and down and sometimes you score two goals on two shots sometimes you go 15 shots and nothing goes in lumpy sometimes you shank it over the net sometimes you're too fat lazy to get up the ice to join the play coronado while you're kind of you are kind of shit talking them there not shit talking all just literally pointing out five points this last five games congratulations trade very good get a center no I uh don't trade him I'm I'm on the area train for a point tonight can fit him and cadre together find another way to get a center don't did you not hear
Starting point is 01:14:34 what Dregs just said. You have to have the mindset that Billy G. has. I should go work for him because we're in agreement. We're here to win. Who Dregs or Billy G? Billy G. We get some pals in that opposition. And while you're taking a run at Hubert O, 29 points and 29 career games against the Predators.
Starting point is 01:14:50 So pretty good. Be ready. Half of Leon's total, but good. He was in the East for a long time. Sorry. He doesn't have So he's not the second best player in the world. Sorry, he doesn't have Connor McDavid running riding shotgun all the time. The year traded for you but he had more points than dry siddle yeah without connor that's right it's right what yeah not just the whole trade those guys we have we're good player we have players that want to
Starting point is 01:15:25 play johnny johnny left but hey you know what look at this they really want to play here if you pay them i would argue the trade wasn't bad it's everything else oh we don't need to talk yeah you got a first i know it's just what do you do you do with it. Well, that's probably the movie. Shends me right now. Pinner report? Sure. Let's get it. Let's do it. Brought to you by Village Honda, located in
Starting point is 01:15:48 Northwest Automol and online at VillageHonda.com. If you haven't driven a Honda lately, what are you doing with yourself? Were you saying at the show there the last summer? It has the sweetest, most satisfying door slam, uh,
Starting point is 01:16:04 I'm going to say on the, on the auto market. So maybe a slam sort of just like a go. There's no slam. It's like a, fombo. I don't know what it is with the, you know, it's the rubber seals or whatever it is. It's something funny to see. Even if you just go in to have a coffee and then just start opening and closing doors on the passport of the CRV. Excuse me, sir. Can I help you?
Starting point is 01:16:28 No, I'm good. Just seeing if tubby knows what he's talking about. Seems to have a point here. Got to bang on. Speaking of the CRV. it's as though it was designed for Calgary and it's unpredictable weather. It's coming.
Starting point is 01:16:43 No matter what the conditions, the CRV sits atop the pack among compact SUVs. When the snow hits, you don't need to be going outside to lock the hubs and shifting into four by four. You don't need to do that. 49% of the population didn't know what the hell are you talking.
Starting point is 01:16:59 You can feel confident behind the wheel of your CRV as Honda has included a plethora of driver safety features that come standard. I was always excited when it was time to hop out and lock the hubs. Is the time to lock the hubs, Dad? Is it time to lock the hubs? Yeah, let's lock the hubs.
Starting point is 01:17:14 Yes. Northwest Auto Mall online at village honda.com. Ryan Pinder report. Fellas, it's game day. Let's go. The Nashville Predators fresh from their assent out of the NHL's basement. Now, one point clear. In Calgary, playing the second half of a back-to-back,
Starting point is 01:17:38 Flames had an incredibly vicious five games in five cities and eight days and three time zones. And we're coming off a second half of a back-to-back loss against the Canucks on Tuesday, but a couple days of rest. So this is a mismatch rest-wise. Calgary should be good. Should be no complaining from the flames. There should be lots of winging. And I told you about this Friday, two days rest, no Blasty jersey stuff.
Starting point is 01:18:02 I know. This is great. One and no on Fridays, two on two days rest. Blasties are under 500. Let's go. We're going to be five and one in the Reds. We get back four and one. Four,
Starting point is 01:18:11 soon to be five and one in the Reds. If we get in here out next week and they dropped it, Huska is, we're going to have to take him right out on the mat. Call him out. The woodshed? The carpet. Call him on the carpet.
Starting point is 01:18:23 Take him out of the mat. Take him back to the woodshed. You might whip our ass in the woodshed though. Yeah, it's hand-to-hand combat. It's probably not where I would excel. A lot of talk. I'm more of a,
Starting point is 01:18:34 ambush type of. Right. Sneak attacks. Some would call that like sucker. Yes. A sucker punch. Yeah. It's well thought out.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Yeah. It's an ambush if it's well thought out. Ambush. I got ambush. It's a tactical ambush. Wait a time you just sucker punched me. Tactical ambush. When's the last time you've been ambushed, Jack?
Starting point is 01:18:55 This has it been a while? Never. Never been ambushed by the booze last week. What are you talking about? Stick around here. It's matter of time. New lines of practice yesterday. We talked about it.
Starting point is 01:19:05 Let's look at them one more time. Conner's area. Are you a center? We're not going to find out tonight, but we get the first viewings in a long time. Cadry will stay with Kuzmenko, posthal slides on the left side. It'll be Hubert O and Sharon Govich.
Starting point is 01:19:17 The flanks on Zeri's line and the third and fourth line, as they're drawn up here, will remain the same. Bean in for Barry. Pahal has been the pillar on the right side of that third pair and your standard top four, Paul Anderson, Weiger, Miramanov. And I'm happy for Pahal because he's one of those guys you can tell. nothing's come easy to this guy.
Starting point is 01:19:38 He's had to work and dig. Was in Vegas. I'm in and out. I'm in and out. He did win a cop, which is nice. But now he's playing every night. He's earned it.
Starting point is 01:19:46 His coach trusts him, believes in him. He's not coming out. They're rotating everyone around and playing other people on their off sides. He's staying in there. Good for him. And like you said,
Starting point is 01:19:53 Rhett, when you're in that bottom pairing, just don't get on the highlights. Less is more. Don't be in the game film the next day when coach, okay, here's our defensive zone coverage now. What was the, definitely.
Starting point is 01:20:07 don't do this here. Just don't be that guy. Fellas, do you know who the third highest paid Calgary Flames defenseman is? Third highest. Because you'd obviously have Weiger and Anderson making big money. Is it TB8? No.
Starting point is 01:20:22 Jake Bean. Yes. How are we feeling about off-scratched 1.75 times two Jake Bean these days? He's back in tonight. I'm fine with 1.75 Jake Bean. I don't get. What are we going to do?
Starting point is 01:20:33 I'm not sure why he came out or why he's been out necessarily. I mean, he hasn't been undeniable. That's, at 1.75, I don't expect him to be on. I agree. It's just Pahal's at half that. And he's been much better. But he played in that, because we looked at it. He played against Carolina.
Starting point is 01:20:48 He scored. Scored against the canes and then sat for the next two. Bahal standing out on the sidewalk with a hell no, we won't go sign. Like, I need more money. Bahal's happy. Don't try to create controversy, bender. Love Bahaul. Don't start.
Starting point is 01:21:02 Bahaul's making the least amount of money of all eight. And he's making less. He's been unbelievable. He's taking a run at Bean. I'm asking where you're at. I'm really not anywhere. I would hope I'd to have seen more, but I also haven't really been disappointed.
Starting point is 01:21:17 I'm kind of lukewarm on B. It's kind of exactly what I, what you thought. And it's exactly why I wondered why it's two-year deal, right? Whatever. You got 20 million. It's not hurting you from doing anything. And you have Hanley.
Starting point is 01:21:30 You got a Hanley right there. He was on a two-year deal. You got a Hanley right there. He's making considerable business. We'll move. move to while the standings. We're with 1.75 is too much. For a guy that's your 6-7,
Starting point is 01:21:42 yeah. On this team? Oh, it's fine. It's just, if you're the oil. Look at the controversy he's trying to create for, it's not efficient. And Jake Bean is such a sweet boy. He's a lovely boy.
Starting point is 01:21:53 I think Bean is great. His dad on him. Yeah. How we came out. Hockey dogs. There they are holding the second wild card. Calgary Flames, of it to know he's all alberta wildcard friends
Starting point is 01:22:06 wouldn't have so did they get leapfrog by the oilers last night just fractions of percentage points what is it again the the un-dynasty is that what you call it the undinisty a wildcard yeah I mean sure they're going to crank it up and win 17 in a row again no problem guys it's easy to do uh as for the schedule coming up you're not going to show we're going to get there
Starting point is 01:22:30 questions we want to see Nashville we're going to get this taken down If this gets taken down, we need to literally shoot someone in the sun. We created this. Islanders will be second on the home standfall by the Rangers, then Minnesota. 2 o'clock start on Saturday next weekend. I guess we're doing the show for free today. And then we go. We get flag on YouTube and get it yanked down.
Starting point is 01:22:51 A four game road trip. And he knows this, right? Yeah, keeps throwing it up there. We're going to see if it gets flying there. We do this every day. Leave it up there longer. Do we know? So we really don't know.
Starting point is 01:23:05 We really don't know. And that's why I'm like moving. Hey guys. That thing got flagged. Do we know why? It's something to do with the schedule. Okay. So do we know why?
Starting point is 01:23:14 It's not something to do with the time. Okay. So let's not do it for a day and then I just start doing it again. See if you can flag. All right. Because it's a 50 second segment and the schedule was not all 50 seconds. Yeah. So we'll see.
Starting point is 01:23:28 Anyway, that's incredibly inside baseball. It means no sense to everyone watching for the four people in the room pertinent everyone else not national what do you got what the hell's happening here where are you let's take a look don't s talk anybody because they'll store who was the guy last time us so parsinganin who the hell i laughed they took a run at him and then he scored you know that jankowski jankowski if he's in tonight it's an anytime goal for sure but right now it looks like he's a healthy uh forsburg o're riley stamp coast that's a good looking line marsher show sissons nyquist okay I'm certain to see the issue now.
Starting point is 01:24:03 Sisson's number two center. Tomasito Parson and Evangelista. Love those guys. Sure. Young, hardworking. Okay, go get it. And then Leroux. Who are you, Lorenz?
Starting point is 01:24:13 With Francois, LaRourne. He's back? Former Havs first rounder. Keep your head up. Black Jack Shalak. And that is Cole Smith on the fourth line who tied the game against the Oilers last night in the third and fourth time. Frankie ran hot.
Starting point is 01:24:26 Francois. Calm down. Yeah. Shee and Yosi, the top pair, Lausanne, Carrier the second pair, Del Giazzo, and Shen, your third pair. Wedgwood started last night. It should be Saros tonight.
Starting point is 01:24:39 And as noted, Jankowski, Novak Willsby, the spares. Novak kind of heard. Genkowski, Novak sounds like a tennis player pro. Okay. If you combine those two. Yeah, kind of. Yeah. Novak, Jancovich. Yeah, sure.

Starting point is 01:25:07 Vitam at center. Went's the last time Halak was in the league. Three, four years ago. That's what I mean. That's the rare air. We're talking about six foot and under. Like you've got to literally. We've talked about Wolf being a small goalie.
Starting point is 01:25:18 It's been sorrow. He was in the system when the lack played. I'm sure he was. Now that Halak's gone. All you got. That's what I'm saying. Yes. Like who else is six feet in the league?
Starting point is 01:25:29 They were for sure comparing Wolf to Holack. seven years ago, but since he retired. Jack, when did Yarrowlack retire? Please take that a fresh. Yeah. It's not about that. Jack, who is, if we were going to talk about, if anyone's talked about Wolf being compared to a smaller goalie.
Starting point is 01:25:45 Yes. This is the first time I've heard Yarrow Halak's name come up. Yeah, he didn't talk to Kevin Woodley once a week for three years. I've heard a lot of fucking names. I'll tell you that for free. It's go to Nashville. What's going right? He's your buddy.

But it's okay for you to act like a... I'm not disparaging the great Calgary Flames alumni's name and brand with my Tom Fuler.
Starting point is 01:32:11 They want nothing to do with me. For me. A bit of range they can aim for between June of September. Too early to expect much more than a range at this point. But you know what they'd love to do? You know what they'd love to do? You can't get it. Open it up with a bunch of bangor concerts during Stampede Week.

Wayne did it in 424.
Starting point is 01:34:39 Wayne's second 1,000 points, like 1001 to 2000, also did in less than 500 games. Mario 513, bossy 656. Did you notice all the guys above them on this list? Have something that we'll keep on. Okay. Moving. So I'll rub it until it happens.
Starting point is 01:34:56 Curse the whole thing. You think? Moving. Keep moving. Brett's gone, getting pizza. Dedicated to his crab. Yeah, it's fourth fastest. Hell of a player.
Starting point is 01:35:05 We get it. Mike Bossy was quicker. Lemieux was quicker. Gretsky was quicker. 300 victories. Would you believe Andre Vasilevsky is the fastest in NHL history team? We were kind of talking about,
Starting point is 01:35:19 what was the Bobboski one that we were talking about? I don't know about the Bob one. Bobber? Yeah. Was it games played? Couldn't have been wins? I don't know what it was. Anyway,
Starting point is 01:35:29 but Brovsky just had a milestone. A milestone. own. Well, I'd say, first terrible. And as Ryan always tells you, don't take a goalie in the first round. I don't do sometimes. Just don't expect to work all the time. I would love to do it. You take every draft class from last 20 years and go first round goalie or undrafted goalie. Who's better? It'd be like 50, 50, 2 thirds, one third. I don't know. You're going to, I'll just, oh, man, you're going to have to. Really speed. I don't know what you got for snakes and crabs and stuff, but I just dump it. because you're going to need to get through this.
Starting point is 01:36:03 Let's watch Zadora of fight. Zaddy had a scrap last day. Actually, you know what? And Zadora would always drive your nuts because he wants to be tough guy, not good of fighting. This one went okay. How about Jamie Ben though? A thing of pieces.
Starting point is 01:36:13 Ben strength. He's always the match. He launched Carlo. Penalty coming. He's a mean. He is. He is. One of the last guys to go without the shield.
Starting point is 01:36:27 And he is a mean guy. wrapped up Nikita Zadora It's just a hold on fast here, but there will be some arms loose. He's firing left and he's not a left. But now Zadarov's got the right. Right's free. Look out. Now he's going left jabs. Great.
Starting point is 01:36:48 And you know what, though? I mean, we have fun. This is Zadorov's good at this. Yep. Defending teammates. Actually defending, not good. Defending teammates better. Right.
Starting point is 01:37:01 Yeah. Yeah, Carlo. I was, you hit it, actually. It was, that is Jamie, Ben, I'm a richer, you're going to get it.
Starting point is 01:37:08 Yeah. With intent. I mean, you see the way he, he's meeting. I did initiate a little bit with him, but there's that thing. If they put that,
Starting point is 01:37:18 that red, that red, octagony thing with those stops. Yeah. Yeah. You put that on there. Don't know that would have worked with old James.
Starting point is 01:37:25 It's not Ben's fault. Connor Dardt, returning home. First game of Vancouver of his career coming up. How did you not play? You guys get the best thing. Well, I thought you just meant returning.

Starting point is 01:38:05 It's not let's ride anymore. It's let's weld. Pants Browning. I'm sure that's it. That's what it is. It's lame. It's Russell Wilson. Great cups this weekend, fellas.
Starting point is 01:38:16 This is our last chance to dispel wisdom and insight on people. We think it's the Argos and the Blue Bombers. Argos open at 10, I think it's down nine and a half. Art. In what way? Sorry, the Blue Bombers are favored. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:32 And look at that. That's fancy art. Should a championship game have a near double digit over under a point spread? Well, I didn't work well for the stamps. So they were nearly double digit favorites in back-to-back great cups. It's loaded on Bo Levi in the group chat. Oh, Lord. Oh, Levi.
Starting point is 01:38:48 Didn't he have, it's like the Easter conference MVP or something this year? They didn't make the playoffs. Regular seat. Well, he had a really good deal. Oh, now you're back. No, no. He had, he was, I believe, in terms of passing test, and yardage. She was one of the best, if not the best.

With that little baby shoe, Nike thing, yeah. Who likes that? Dumb shit, let's go. A water buffalo tried to fuck around with a rhino. Let's go live for some footage here.
Starting point is 01:39:20 Water buffalo. Water buffalo and Ryan. The water buffalo thinks he's doing well. He's moving them back, moving him back. The rhino eventually just going to say, leave you. I'm done with this. A rhino different than a hip-ball.
Starting point is 01:39:41 Oh. And they're tossed. Why don't you get moving along again, man? Hey. See you. Yeah, big rhino didn't want us seeing that, but we're aware. Ow. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:55 Yeah. Risk reward. Talks about it with his kids. What's the payoff? And what are we risking to get that payoff? Let's watch this fellow and evaluate. Payoff would be an eight-second viral plus, right? Whoa.
Starting point is 01:40:11 What was the risk? You dive. Are we two in the air? Or what you'd be? On the top of the... Oh, that would be no good. Yeah, you're right. Oh, the lights out.
Starting point is 01:40:24 That's a right angle at the top there. That's no fun. Good night, Jim Kite. Well done. What if you just put on the wrong sweater and it slides too much? Whoa. Wow!

Starting point is 01:41:32 This guy's bunk side bunker? Bean? Seven wood. What do you do here? Bunk side greener. Um, I mean, I'm not in there.
Starting point is 01:41:41 If my ball goes in there, I'm leaving the ball and going back to the cars. This guy, different. Attitude 7 would. Kid me here? Ew. AI.
Starting point is 01:41:58 Did you hear the ew? Yeah. You give me a gross. This one. That's kind of gross. No way, dude. No way. Finally. Yeah, that's pretty good.
Starting point is 01:42:13 One more gross for us. I don't think it mattered what club he used, just his approach to it. Good angles. Gross. Looking for my. E. Ew. You got to know the greens.
Starting point is 01:42:27 Yeah, you do. Got to know him. This guy's having a day. We've all had days. Dean, you ever have days or just nothing's going right? I do. Twice. Jack does.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Probably everyone. Imagine you had two bags in the back of your car to bring to work in the morning. And a fucking bear climbs in your window and rips it out. And now your car is filled with fucking skunks. There's a bunch in there. that I don't... I'm not fucking dealing with this.
Starting point is 01:42:59 Oh, hey, buddy. What's up, dude? Could you fuck off? What? What is going on? That's tough. So... Special bags just for work in the back of the car.
Starting point is 01:43:14 Take them first thing in the morning. I'll get them to work. I got your boss. I'll do any favor. I'll get them to work first thing tomorrow. Bear climb, breaks your window, climbs in. Pulls the bags out.
Starting point is 01:43:23 Imagine you had two bags in the back of your car. to bring to work in the morning and a fucking bear climbs in your window and rips it out and now your car is filled with fucking skunks there's a bunch in there too that I don't
Starting point is 01:43:39 I'm not really I would just feel of this yeah I would just want to match hey buddy what's up dude could you fuck off someone in the comments he does kind of what's going on
Starting point is 01:43:54 I kind of want to know where this is because there's obviously some kind of a Canadian accent. Like if this is New Brunswick, I'm like, yep, I believe you. Scongs. Skonks in there, man. It's a tough one. So we're saying that the bear smashed the window. Or he left it open.
Starting point is 01:44:15 It's unclear, but what was in the cars now. But I have a hard time thinking that the bear is going to be so enticed by whatever's in this bag that he's going to smash the window. But, hey, tough day. Either way, bad day. I mean, it's, it's dawn here. The sun's just coming up. Yeah. This guy is already waist deep.
Starting point is 01:44:36 It's not a good start. Brown liquor. What do you do then? Brown liquor. Yeah, I guess. Not working today? What about those bags? Don't ask me.
Starting point is 01:44:44 I'll see you Monday. Glick. Yeah, you're taking the day off. It's not a good day. Can't get in. I can't get in today. I've got skunks in my car, guys. What?
Starting point is 01:44:54 That's the worst excuse I've ever. I'm serious. There's a snake in my boot. and a skunk in my car. That's your pin report for a Friday, Dean. Brought to you by Village Honda. Huge selection of used vehicles, all makes, all models, all budgets,

We say that, but it's not just a palaver. It's real. Your dealership for life, Village Honda in the Northwest Auto Mall. I already scratched that.
Starting point is 01:45:32 Is it time? Because we got some amends to make. Well, we've got to do our football picks. Oh, yep. That's the time. It's a week for the fellas. You were saying amends? Oh, I see what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:45:43 We got to rebounds. All of us one and two, Jack? Yeah, last week, everyone, one and two. And I don't love my picks this week. I was kind of scrambling around. I just kind of grabbed a couple. I'll throw out one when we're done. Okay.
Starting point is 01:45:56 Because I feel like you need to have one that just stinks that you hate. That's gross and you plug your nose and they end up coming through. It's, uh, gross. Girls. I really like that one. Bet 365 is the world's largest. Sports betting platform. Open an account with Bet365 today.

Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at Bet 365. So for last night, you had the commanders. And Jack had the Eagles. Eagles. And it wasn't just straight up.
Starting point is 01:46:34 there's the spread as well. So Jack had to lay like, was in that four, four and a half. Yeah. Yeah. You're not too broken up though. I'm not.
Starting point is 01:46:43 Because there's pizza here. Seems. Yeah. Okay. So that is where we sit through 10 weeks. Jack is just, he's lapping the field at 21 and 9. Hot knife through butter.
Starting point is 01:46:55 That's at one in two week. He's 21 and 9. Imagine if he was, because, well, truth be told, we're not betting all of the picks that we make here. Jack,
Starting point is 01:47:03 I mean, he'd be, uh, yeah, be doing a lot better than I am now. Browler season would have started months ago. 13 leg parles with kickers getting over 2 and a half field. He's not into
Starting point is 01:47:13 actually winning picks, which he has. Rhett is cruising at 18, 11, and 1 in the past, the bills, your love of the bills, you go, just, you're not. Big spot for the bills. They've sometimes hurt you. They've taken good care of you this year. 18, 11 and 1, Pinder 17, 12, and 1. I'm getting back. And I am
Starting point is 01:47:30 struggling at 14 and 16. It's all right. You're good week away. A lot of table or in your plate. Good week away. We'll see how it comes. So let's see what we've got as far as our point spread picks for the week ahead. I'll go first. All right. Packers heading into the windy city.
Starting point is 01:47:46 The bears are horrible. The Packers are coming off a by week. I like them to cover here on the road, five and a half. Boom, your bears are so bad. They are bad. Real bad. Falcons lost last week to the Saints. Bad loss.
Starting point is 01:48:01 We had a couple of you guys on the Falcons. And I don't know what happened. I didn't watch any of that game, but they're heading into Denver. They're dogs. I think they're a better football team. Denver can hang, but I don't think they win. And I like Atlanta as dogs here on the road. And then Detroit, they played a brutal game last week and they still won with golf for like four or five picks.
Starting point is 01:48:22 They won by three against Houston. So at home against the Jags, the Jags are so bad. No Lawrence. Brian Thomas is questionable. Mac Jones sucks. Fresh back from Europe. They will absolutely. annihilate the jack bars.
Starting point is 01:48:40 So there you go. Those are, hey, I like those. Jack's been red hot. How could you quibble? That Packers line almost feels too easy. Yeah. Which it scared me away from it. Because yeah, the bears, they fire their offensive coordinator.
Starting point is 01:48:54 I mean, the quarterback is getting sacked 10 times a game. Get rid of the ball. All right. So there's the jack picks. Rets up. Rets in second. Walk us through it, Retro. I got McCaffrey back, so I got to go Niners.
Starting point is 01:49:11 Falcon sucked last week. They got to get right, and the bills always win, and they're going to crush the Chiefs. Yeah, Brett was saying like 14 points. He's just, let's go. It's not going to be close. The Chiefs have won a bunch of football games that they maybe shouldn't. And, oh, it speaks to their pedigree.
Starting point is 01:49:26 No, it speaks to Fluke. The bills are going to pump them. Now. Chiefs are flukes. Fair to hear first. Okay, I'll go. I'm totally with Jack and all the same reasons for, Green Bay. I don't think Chicago's good. Packers coming off by. I'm taking the Chiefs here. I don't,
Starting point is 01:49:42 I actually think the bills are going to win. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Remember when you read us the stats on Mahomes and the Chiefs? Yeah. When they are dogs. It's, it's atrocious. 13 and 1 against the spread. If not more. Straight up. Straight up. It's bad. And against the spread, it's worse. I am taking just the numbers. I will be cheering for the bills, but I have Kansas City plus two and a half. I'll also take Jack's Steelers. Baltimore cannot defend the pass. I hate to say it. Mr. Unlimited.
Starting point is 01:50:11 Russell Wilson has actually been good. Pass on the ball. I think they can hang here. They shouldn't be getting three. Taking three points on the Steelers, Jack. It's weird to see the Ravens defense be so susceptible. To the pass, yeah. You're thinking about Ed Reed and Ray Lewis.
Starting point is 01:50:27 Like, this is not a lockdown D. They're saying you're not going to run, but pass all you want on us. Yeah, you'd think by now they'd figure it out, but I think they're just bad. Because what was it two weeks ago or three weeks ago? James Winston got them with the final play. Well, it was Cincinnati, the high scoring Thursday night or two weeks ago.
Starting point is 01:50:42 That was insane. They eke that one out somehow. Can't stop the pass. Those are mine. Let's weld. No. No. Here's where I'm going.
Starting point is 01:50:54 Niners, six and a half. They, without McCaffrey earlier this year, thumped Seattle already. On the road. I'll take six and a half at home. Denver would have beaten Kansas would have beaten the Chiefs a week ago Walked field goal and I
Starting point is 01:51:11 Again the Falcons I don't I'm not sure what they are I don't think they're that Great Denver at home minus two I'll take the Broncos And Monday nighter And this one again it almost feels like it's too Too simple the cowboys are complete trash Right now they can't get out of their own way
Starting point is 01:51:27 Nico Collins is coming back for the Texans And Stroud's been better They get Uh Knicks and the running back has been so good. He missed what two or three weeks. He came back and just picked up where he left off.
Starting point is 01:51:39 They should have been Detroit last week. And the Cowboys were hot trash. Not exactly a big road game here. It's like there's no travel. I'll give away seven and a half. I'll lay the number with the Texans in Dallas. Good luck, fellas. I got to go to Jack.
Starting point is 01:51:52 Now the one I was going to take. Okay, here we go. The one stinker. The lock that he wouldn't put on his picks. It's the Saints and the Browns. Oh, ugly. Saints at home minus one to Cleveland. I thought hot about this one too.
Starting point is 01:52:10 I just, I like the Browns in this spot. Yeah, I think the Browns win. I don't think there's no Olavé. There's no Shaheed. Oh, he's almost going to play him. And I'm not saying the Browns are any good. But in a straight up, you know what it is?
Starting point is 01:52:28 It's that game last week, New Orleans meets Atlanta. And I suddenly don't know what I believe about New Orleans, nor Atlanta. Like what the hell happens? Oh, Derek Carr and Marquez Valdez Scanton? No. No. No. So if the, if the Browns do cover, I get a bonus pick.
Starting point is 01:52:44 Greatest show on turf. You get a bonus. It's not the crazy show on. Bet 365, whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at bet three, six, five. Have fun like us. We're having fun. So much fun. Are we having fun?
Starting point is 01:52:57 We got pizza because of it today. Drys out another two points last night, having fun without bet. Yeah. Hit six of the last nine, five of the last six. Let's go. There you go. Woo. Yow!
Starting point is 01:53:09 That's a heck of a show today. Great job. Sorry, I was late, man. I'm sorry. Life happens. I don't even notice. Slide did a good job, filling in here.
Starting point is 01:53:17 Diled it in. It's weird, but parking tricky. What? Here? How to do it? They just open the other side of the street. I've decided to make my own. I've just started to move cones and.
Starting point is 01:53:27 Yeah. Yeah. Well, uh, because they're strewn about haphazardly anyway. There's no rhyme or reason for anything. Our esteemed salesperson was in a very early. this morning. She just threw the hazards on and said, yeah, you can just drive around me. I'm good. Works for half an hour. Got back in. Whoa. That's something. That's bold.
Starting point is 01:53:44 That is very bold. They don't have the balls to tick it around here. They're, they're too afraid. They already got lawsuits up the yinger. This construction disaster. You're not taking it. Just throw the hazards on. Park where you want. Middle of the street. Let's go. Uh, tonight, after burner. That's right. I think it is a Cammy and Mike show tonight. Goode. Like, Gouled. So watch the game and then flip up. on your YouTube's and check out a little afterburner with Cammy and Mike. Who do we like tonight? Took the flames. Matt Coronado and Dustin Wolf and the flames.
Starting point is 01:54:19 All right. Jack, do you agree? Do you concur? Are you saying the flames are dogs at home tonight? They are. They're even money. Nashville second half of back to back. It was like minus 125.
Starting point is 01:54:30 I want to say when I looked this morning. Flames are plus 110 to plus 100. I went on it. I'm not, you know, I don't bet on the home team a lot. lot, but this is a spot. Nashville should be tired. Yes, it's their better goalie, but flames two days rest. Harvey takes his shirt off. I feel like it's guaranteed win. It's kind up to Harv now. Or, or just everybody's so distracted. Imagine Wolf. He's like, a shirt. Oh, you got to get behind that Nashville bench. Don't. Get
Starting point is 01:54:57 So what are they seeing your nips? What are they seeing Nashville on the road last in Calgary minus one and a half. Well, I think if you had to say who's the better team between now and the end of the year, people will say Nashville. But and Saros, but I don't think, you know, I would take Wolf over Saros today. Yeah, Wolf's been good.
Starting point is 01:55:19 It's been very good. That's an interesting one. Go ahead. Bet against them at your own peril. Good words. You can bet it against whoever you want. 365, baby. Never dumb up. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:55:29 Good words, guys. Well, have a fine weekend. Enjoy yourselves. I'm going to end. This pizza still. The fun's over? I'm going to be sleeping on that couch. I'll be here for afterburner.
Starting point is 01:55:42 Rett's going to come in on Monday and brag about his new motorbike. Yes. On Monday. Stay tuned for that. Well, it's not your first Harley that you've voted in your life. Tell that story next week. See you, buddy.
