And then they'll shoot out loss.
You know, those bastard wranglers from the rebuffs down the quadrant, southeast.
And you're off to Murray Copa.
I got a Murray Copa tomorrow.
What a sighting that'll be.
I don't know how to sleep tonight.
No, you.
Between this hockey game and my Copot anticipation, it's going to be a tough, tough night to get some Zs in.
I made a bold proclamation before the show started.
I threw out a question that should.
need no debate and up until recently had no debate in my mind what is the best steak to eat
jack quickly the first one to chime in yeah was jack jack jack quickly chimed in with kind of and almost
with some sass well and up until i would say the last six months i would have had the same what are you
an idiot it's the rib eye that marbling leafy fat delicious i cooked to new york
last night.
Ha!
Look out.
Shut the front door.
Yeah.
Shut the front door.
I might be switching.
Dean.
I guess my question would be this.
When you're at the controls, I mean, you know what you're doing there.
You go to a restaurant.
You assume they know what they're doing in the kitchen.
It's not always the case.
Maybe it's the guy's first night, whatever.
Where is the greater error, the margin for error, with the strip or with the ribeye?
With the strip.
For sure.
because I wonder if just if you're going to go batting average
restaurant to restaurant I'm going to get five New York five rebis
has a little more pork choppy thing to it where you can dry it out faster
well it is it's leaner yeah it's leaner my old man was always partial
of the T-bone that was his move oh that's traditional Western Canadian plastic
growing up yeah I like to fillet because I'm fancy pants I guess but it's like not as much
but God is that the most tender most it is the most tender yeah um I don't have to
ready for boner.
That's what you want.
You're here for the meat.
There's the meat.
I don't want to throw a wrench in two.
You want to continue?
I was just going to say this and then we can move on.
No, I got some else for once on.
If you were to put a New York and a
ribeye on your grill, you prepare both,
like maybe not the same.
That has done the way I like it.
That has done the way I like it.
Comes out on the platter.
And you have both.
Even when they're at their best.
goodbye.
Is that right?
Yeah.
I think the most important thing is don't sleep on the New York.
Yes, that's, feel free, slide one into your rotation once in a while.
Like I was saying, there's a nut, you go a little peppercorn, New York.
That's probably the point that I'm getting at is that you're right.
If the platter comes out and they're both sitting there.
Yeah.
And they're going to have a hard time.
I'll enjoy both, but probably I'm going to, oh, this is, but throwing the New York.
in there.
The Kansas.
Yeah.
Kansas City.
What's Kansas City?
Similar to New York.
Very much the same thing.
If not the same.
It's cooked a different way probably.
If not the same thing.
Yeah.
I was surprised one time.
I went to a,
we were in Vegas,
you and I.
We went to dinner with Rob Ray
to one of the nice
steakhouses, I think it's
Mandalay,
something like that anyway.
And they had this steak.
And you know the rabbi,
you've got your main chunk
and then there's the kind of rim
of front.
And then there's the kind of rim of food.
And then
there's the crown of the meat, which is so, it's almost like fall apart tender.
They had taken the whole big thing and sliced that crown off.
And that was your steak.
I used to buy those.
And you were so excited.
It's like, this is, this is going to be unbelievable.
Partly because Rob was paying and partly because of the meat.
I feel like I paid.
Rob paid?
That doesn't check.
That was a Robert.
Really?
Wow.
That was, that was, I shouldn't say this.
Rob was going to punch me in the face.
it's when the sabres were trying to overhaul their image
and that and Mr. Pagula wanted
he'll take people out treat them right here's the
company card and that sort of thing so Rob was
very generous anyway
you were kind of let down
that's the problem
you pay a lot of money I've never been more
to let down on a stake than when we were in Nashville
what of absolute
with foot daddy
Daddy.
An absolute disaster.
We owe him.
Yes.
Both of them.
He and JJ and JJ.
JJ.
I mean,
she took us off.
She'd pick up the meal at the afternoon.
They're here in February.
Jeez,
we got to take them out.
Next month,
are they coming?
They're coming in February.
That'll be here next month.
Steve's back in the drop.
Oh,
we can start with him.
What daddy will come out with us.
We're buying a mistake.
I might cook a mistake.
Would you rather go out or come over?
Does the shovel there?
There's always a little.
Oh,
The shrubber will be all dulled up.
She's her.
What, Jack?
She's ready.
Terrace Major.
Who?
The Terrace Major muscle on the cow.
Oh, okay.
Cheaper than the flay.
Similar.
Also, the Denver, but.
Tougher to cook.
Speaking of.
Denver and Denver.
Are you, uh, are you Denver bound?
Because a week ago, you were pumped.
I was.
You got on your fall.
I could go with my, you were doing, I think you were doing some of this stuff.
It was.
Yeah.
if I went back on my text
I'd be ashamed of myself
I wouldn't because I'm
I'm the
you never fully commit
I'm the plastic bag
I actually had a
I'm 100% in if the bills are there
I didn't know that the
always the U15
AA Rangers were going to rush
on their way through
going to Cinderella run yeah
like what am I going to I'm going to miss this
this is epic now do you have a conflict issue
are you going to be able to put a nice little back to back
together with bills and the SO finals.
What I'm pumped about is a championship
victory on
Saturday. Tough team we've got to face.
Tough, the gold.
The gold. I don't know why they're from.
Gold members.
They're gold.
Holland. Anyway, apparently they're big,
they're rough there.
This is a matchup.
We're going to have to overcome.
We've got to climb a mountain here.
But we're going to win that bastard.
And celebration party.
We have let this team down as a
family.
Okay.
When I'm looking inside, I'm looking in the mirror, I'm looking at myself here.
And my idiot kid for getting hurt because we were going to have the team party on a Friday night.
And the big dope came home with the staff infection.
We were in the hospital.
Well, you can't have a party.
The hospital.
So I owe the team a party.
So we're going to win that championship.
We're going to bring out the gold medal, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, traips around the lake, which is more of a pond right now.
Yeah, I hear there's people falling in to lakes.
That's not ideal.
Silly goosey.
And then we're going to have a big party.
So if you're listening, U15,
double rangers.
Let's go get them.
My house.
After the game.
If?
After the Max Bell celebration.
Right.
And if we lose, we'll get drunk to drown our sorrows because that's what the
U15s do.
Yeah, win or lose.
We're on the booze.
Yeah.
It's all that works.
Good.
Maybe some.
Other.
Sure.
Yeah.
Spice it up.
See what the moms are into.
We're all.
are we today what's this what's the Thursday Dean and it's the McLeod Law studio it's a beautiful beautiful
spot that the good folks down in a McLeod lot two spots in town two locations that's right one of
McLeod Trail so one downtown beautiful building cross from the old shop actually yeah that's true
close to the old Chicago state house remember that place oh that's right and it's shut down how
these places closed down charge I saw on the McLeod Law socials yesterday what's going on
a big hello and welcome to Matthew Warren.
Mdubs, what up?
Matthew Lauren, Associate, Employment Law, litigation, and dispute resolution.
He's joined the McLeod Law team.
I'll tell you what, Matthew.
Two things.
The bar has been raised for you now because you're at McLeod Law.
Expectations are high, but also get ready for a lot of winning.
That's right.
Get your winning hat on.
Yep.
I hope that's what they do.
Because you're with some great people.
Now, do you warn him to be humble in all of his victories?
Like, don't let it get your head, right?
I think they're probably in the hiring process.
They'd weed out the egomaniacs.
That's good point.
Humble until they get to Warner's celebration party after you win,
and then you can let loose and strut around.
Yeah.
You're in the shovel.
Open house, so let's go.
Fellas, it's a game day.
You're damn right at 18 and it's a big one.
This road trip has been going on forever.
That's hellish, hellish.
Oh, man.
I'll tell you what, we've been wrong about almost everything we've ever said.
But clarity at the end of the road trip, it feels like the people closest to the team think
Erasmus deal is very tidy.
And here we are at the end of the road trip.
Would that not be clarity for this team for the final two and a half months?
When you say tight, it's here and tidy?
What do you?
Erasmus deal is, it's getting close.
Okay.
And wouldn't that be tidy if like the end of the road trip, got a clear direction of where you're going?
Like, make no mistakes about it.
If you're training Rasmus now, I don't think it's like,
let's get that eight seed in the West.
Well, the coach will be saying that.
But I mean, this is what we want.
We asked for this for two years,
or full year at least.
You can send the poho back out to let us know that we're now going fantasy land.
It's shopping.
This is good.
Re-digal enacted.
It's what you've been asking for.
Now you get it.
Yeah.
Hope it doesn't suck.
Quick.
Okay, so quick.
Jack, remember what we were talking about.
We had to talk about the Rasmus.
Chicago flag.
It's like things are good.
You can get it.
Road trip.
Um, just quick.
The re-biggle t-shirts.
Yeah.
How do we feel about it?
I got some texts.
Yeah, I did too.
They love them.
Yeah.
People like it.
Yeah.
I got people setting orders in.
I feel like your texts were different.
Uh, no, they were, they were all that as well.
Yeah.
Which just has me concerned.
That we cross the line.
Well, people like them and that's, you're concerned?
You wanted people not to like them?
No, it's, we offered this up.
So the good folks,
They had down a Calgary,
Flames, Sattledown,
town,
and we're not going to sit around on our hands.
You know us.
We get shit done.
We're not just idea people.
They had first ready refusal.
Yes.
They did not jump on it.
We gave them the idea.
Could have been their money.
And I cleared it with McLeod Law.
We're good.
Sorry, Jack.
I know it's.
Can I?
Because I got a text again this morning.
Good.
And I feel like between the Mission McKenna and the re-biggle that we're starting to tread dangerously close to the team just saying, fuck you guys.
Us?
Yeah.
Oh, did the team reach out?
Have they not said?
I thought you said everyone was complimentary about it.
All of a sudden you got some bad reviews?
No, it's all been complimentary.
So can I, sorry.
Can I make a side note or a request?
What are you weird of Flames games?
It's the Sea of Red.
Come on.
We're dropping the ball here.
Yeah, I can do that.
Get these bastards in red.
To let people do we learn.
Tomorrow will be one in red. That's easy.
Okay.
Now am I pushing the envelope people?
No, no, no.
No, everyone likes these shirts. I don't know what Dean sucks.
These are great.
No, I go ahead. Dean, what did you have to say?
I'm just wondering if we're getting too cheeky.
correct yeah and look like if anyone that watches this show understands that there's a heavy
quantity of sarcasm and like you're not here to uh this isn't you know the broadcast of the parliament
sessions we're here to have some fun and poke but you know if you're going to say the thing
and we just quote you that's on you we no one knew the fucking word re biggle till the flame said it
And now we're just helping out.
This is the part.
It's a little bit down there.
No, that's because I'm saying it's not, if it just said re-biggle, it'd be like, oh,
I'd, if you know, you know, but we've then gone to, I mean, it becomes, it's very cheeky slash smarmy.
They didn't have to vote and say these things.
To put the word on it and then explain.
Well, it's a dictionary.
That's the whole.
I get it.
Oh, okay, good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I do understand.
I don't know.
I mean, if it just said re-bigel.
Do you like Kansas City Steaks or New Yorks or rib-eyes?
Everybody's into their own thing, Dean.
What are we going to do?
Brian, can you read this just for the listeners?
Yeah, sure.
So rebiggle, verb, informal, stupid.
To endeavor to construct a competitive or least respectable hockey team,
but to fail so comprehensively that a full rebuild inadvertently occurs.
Is that not what we've watched for the last three years?
Just continue.
Second definition.
To publicly profess playoff ambition while occupying the lowest positions in the standings
for prolonged periods to reframe collapse as development and failure as a plan.
Used in a sentence.
After finishing in what observers described peak sadness, Calgary's management finally admitted
the re-biggle was on.
Rebiggle might be on as soon as today.
They did this to them.
It's a win.
No, you can't blame and you can't be.
This is just a wonderful thing we're doing.
We're providing levity.
Yes.
To a situation where you could find sadness.
right we're this is a glass half full we're taking a negative and turning it into a positive
we are sad into a funny and again if they fucking listen they could be doing it red's digging up here
we're doing great if they they could be doing it and they could take the dough and give it to charity
do it you all with it instead of instead we're taking out to this is we don't piss around
and death be upon you that don't cheer for us.
All the city wants is a sustainable contender,
and I think that's what they want to build,
but they're just talking down to their fans.
Can I also say that what people want is to be entertained and have,
come on, say it with me now, fun.
It's okay.
Yeah, entertainment.
Let's be entertained and have some fun.
When I go to the comedy show,
when I told out all that money for Chappelle,
I was hoping to be entertained,
go with my friends and have a little.
How about we do that?
Then there's some of the crowd,
I don't think that's funny.
That sounds like my uncle.
I don't know if that's fair.
So is that your take?
That is not my take.
We got them, Matt.
Nope, that is.
I want you to send Jack those text messages
so we can get to the bottom.
We'll have to make some new shirts if this one is a good enough,
Dean.
Don't worry, I'm on it.
So what did you,
did you stand up for us or did you cower like a,
I didn't say a whole lot.
You know, I was really involved in the design.
Yeah, so it didn't have any input, didn't know they were coming in pure Ryan fashion.
He loves to surprise rather than talk things out or prepare.
You know what I've learned over the years is that if I bring something to Dean, he will mull over the options and find that he's paralyzed by the decision-making process.
In times of the essence, the rebeggle could be happening at any moment.
And it could be over quickly.
And so when I sent the re-bigel idea, all I said was we need the word re-biggle.
I don't know how, but there's got to be some design element that makes it catchy.
And the designer, RJ, was brilliant, came up with the dictionary definition.
And, you know, that was, there we are.
It's basically on blaming him.
Yeah.
They could also call us and talk to us.
I don't have a specific example.
I guess it might be this when it started.
We talked about the re-biggle.
There are some times where we'll discuss.
something and we're all more or less in agreement.
But then the bottle collector, as he coined himself before the start of the show,
he says he's got a bit of...
Don't mind if I rummed it through your house.
Some bottle collector vibes going.
A little bottle collector.
Sometimes the bottle collector, it feels like, because he's so passionate,
he'll kind of, he'll put a little, you know what, he'll put a little pepper
on the insults or the criticism.
And it's like, oh, well, you don't, well, that's personal.
I mean, well, you don't need to go quite that far.
I like Rebiggle.
Yeah.
The description.
That's what it's been going on here.
Well, you weren't part of the-
That would be the Pinder Pepper.
Yeah.
That I thought maybe we could do with that.
And you may think it was the Pinder-Peper.
I only said Re-Biggle.
The rest is the creative genius.
And we've taken, because we put the word Calgary in there,
we've removed any, it could be anyone, room for doubt.
I don't want this.
I don't want, this is talking about the surge, are we?
I don't want Utah to take this.
Right.
This is ours.
These are we biggle.
All right.
I mean, it's just, I'm sure that's a commonly used phrase.
It's upsetting that some people are upset and a bunch of wimps.
Well, I don't know if anyone is upset, but Dean's worried that people are.
I feel like Dean got some feedback that may be people, because I also got some texting yesterday from people.
So it must have been a topic of discussion.
Well, do they want some free?
shirts you can send them a shirt i said i was going to send some shirts you're already ducking husk
in the hallways no it was maloney we'd see your nose stands you've got your re-biggle shirt on
yeah don't moh tonight it's the black hawks as the flames wrap up a grueling road trip
on nationgear dot c a for the rebiggill shirt nation gear dot c'd spread the word yeah get some red ones
so we'll wear them to the game flames have lost five of six
they have lost twice to the Hawks already this season.
Not close either, 4-0-0-0-5-2.
Bedard put on an absolute show the last time.
I feel like after the last time we lost to me,
that was one of my comments.
I was like, see, the flame can grind away,
but then there's someone else that has high-end talent
that can make a difference.
It's tougher.
Also, back to Wolf, probably too much.
Still, eh?
Not since.
I did some thinking about that.
It's like, well,
Keper played 76 games.
Some guys do play more.
You look at the Hullabucks and the Vasselovskys,
but it just feels in this type of year,
are you really wanting to rack up the odometer as much as they have?
I'm not wanting to rack up the odometer.
And I think he has to be a very active goalie to be good.
Maybe you take some time to get up to 76 games for Wolf before we.
Yeah, because last year was, did he just get to 50?
It was like a split until the new year.
Did he even start the year here?
Yeah, he did.
He and Villadar, it was his open battle, and then they gave Lidar a lot of the tougher
matchup second to back to backs.
And then by the new year, it was like, all right.
We're in this thing.
We're going to ride Wolf a bit.
I don't like how it sets up for our flames.
This year or long term?
Tonight.
Oh, I see.
Tonight.
In Chicago, I feel like it's been a long road trip.
I think there's a lot of background noise.
It does feel like it's the Rasmus thing is coming to a head.
And it looked like a group, as much credit as we give them for coming back and losing the perfect game.
They got to be tired, sick of being on the road and just.
Yeah.
And while fans can be like, that was the perfect game, they worked hard.
They came back.
They didn't quit.
You saw, you know, like this, boy, you got to give them credit.
They worked the tails off.
They're just not skilled enough.
But for that group, it's like, holy bleep, how do we lose a, like, we had a point.
We're two minutes away from a point.
Yeah.
I feel like they're just, McKenzie Weeger having his.
face on they really showed that for a long time too he really good it was compelling tv in fairness
i would have done the same thing there's some disheartened in that as well that's what i was
going to say i care i'm trying i feel like i messed up even though he didn't really and holy
we work so hard and we don't get anywhere i feel like there's some of that going on right
The guys who generally you can count on for that upbeat and the emotion right now,
Codry's gone ice cold.
Weiger, as you mentioned.
I mean, Rasmus is doing his thing,
but Codry has one point in his last 11.
That's a really tough stretch.
Because that's the guy that's points, right?
Tenacity and points.
That's who you count on.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I kind of, I feel the same way.
I assume they go back to Wolf.
They better not.
Really?
Good.
I
well I just got a default to that
wouldn't surprise me but I think that's poor
I still think that the person that makes the decision on this
which is probably at the end of the day
the head coach is saying like look this team's
X number of points ahead us in the playoffs it's a four point game
who's giving us the best chance to win
I don't agree with it to your point Rhett
and then this is the tough spot that Ryan Husk is in
Would he like a more talented group?
Hell yeah.
Does he have one?
No.
Does he understand where they are in their life cycle?
Yeah, he does.
Does he lay down the sword and try to lose?
Absolutely not.
So that's where Huska is.
It's a tough spot.
You know what?
I'm going to take a shot at another one of the coaches.
Oh, good.
Here we go.
Yeah.
Careful.
God love you, Churn, Cole.
But get, we don't need a perfect power penalty kill.
It's very good.
You're doing too good.
Yeah, it was awful.
You're too good.
Damn it, Cole.
Rain it in.
You're a cowboy.
That's horse.
That would help.
Cooley's starting, by the way.
Yes.
There we are.
Good.
Okay.
Told you, Dean.
Well, I just, I've just gotten used to kind of defaulting to.
Well, you should default to my opinion.
That's what you should default to.
Told you by Friday.
We'll know the clear.
Clarity, baby.
The team's going to have a lot of day.
Well, yeah, he, yes, there's.
The workload would suggest a coolie start.
I think if you,
Well, would make sense.
I know who's a goalie guru?
Anyone? Is there a goal? Is it too hard?
Not in this room. I mean, we could call some guys.
But I think you watch that Columbus game and you're like,
that guy looks tired. He looks tired and wore out.
And I think the point you make is a good one. He's not J.S. Jaguer,
who's a blocker. No.
Who just kind of finds his angles and lets the puck hit him.
He is an athletic.
East, west, bopped down goal.
Water movement, skating a ton, yeah?
So that's a good point.
It's not a big blocker.
That ain't him.
What is,
I mean, Wolf's story is the,
you know, the numbers are the numbers.
But yeah, he's among the, you showed up the staties.
Among the league leaders.
One guy's famous chart.
And it's and all that sort of thing.
As for the Hawks,
they lost to Edmonton on Monday,
four to one.
And I've lost two of three,
but the bigger, you go just a little bit wider.
Points in six of eight,
they won five of seven.
before Christmas they had lost
I think it was six in a row
but since then points in seven of
ten, but Ard is back.
Now he missed the 12 games, came back for two
and then he got the poops.
Yeah, he said it was all coming.
It's going around.
It's going around.
So he got a fluy deal,
but is expected to play tonight.
Terra Vinen was injured
in the last game.
He's not expected to play.
So, he's...
He's, right, Nazar looks like he's
knicked up too.
Yeah, Nazar's been out for 11, like 11 games.
And he's a center.
So with Tara Vinen and him gone, it's,
they're getting a little thin down the middle.
Sam Dickinson is their second line center.
Oh, Sammy boy.
Yeah.
Oh, Sammy boy.
They got some young guys that are exciting.
They got some, I'm not sure I know a ton about this guy,
but boy, that's a big young athletic hockey player.
We'll see what they look like.
And Spencer Knight's been a huge, huge addition for them.
The Seth Jones deal last year.
They get Florida's first this year, which has done
really well in our tankathons and they got Spencer night that's right a nice little swap for
set Jones uh night 2.6 three goals against nine 10 say percentage nine 10's tidy tight it's uh
it's not a bad number yeah that uh art him lev schoonov second overall he's he's young and he is
he's dynamic i i feel like what i feel like i haven't watched a lot but if i happen to be skimming
through like it's lebs chunov's playing a ton uh okay what's he got 18
53 average of ice.
Okay.
But that has changed in the last month.
He's playing 20, 22, 22, 23, 24.
He just continues to.
And they got a state championship football player, too.
What was that?
Their first round.
Okay.
Who hasn't decided if he's going to be a hockey player football player.
Oh, is that right?
Did you hear about this?
No.
No.
Don't you remember at the draft?
It was kind of a
He's an athlete
They drafted this guy in the first round
And it was like
This guy's not sure if he wants to be a quarterback
Or Mason West
Yeah West
That's right
What round did they pick on?
First 20th overall
That was kind of a
I don't know if it was a flyer
But it wasn't really a
Are you sure
What you want to do?
Maybe it's one of those things that you tell teams that you don't want to get drafted by.
It's like, I'm not sure.
I might play football.
Yeah, I love bowling.
Football.
You're a, you're a first round.
What are you talking about?
But then he went on to win.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he's good at that too.
Nice to be him.
Kids.
Two sport athletes.
Parents.
More than one, more than one sport.
Do it.
Do them all.
Yeah, two a more.
High jump.
So don't play hockey 12 months a year and get your hip.
It's done on your routine.
Hard on the hipth.
They don't lie.
Special teams good for the Chicago Blackhawks.
I was kind of surprised.
They are top 10 in both.
Really?
Their P.K. right now is splendid.
They have the second ranked PK in the national hockey.
That is surprising.
You don't usually see that with a young team.
16 for 16 in their last 7, 85.2%.
Oh, that doesn't bode well.
Their power play is seventh in the NHL.
That's pretty good.
It's not bad.
Yeah.
It's not bad.
Is that up to add up?
Yeah.
We're 85 and 22.
Very good.
We're in good shape.
Yeah.
Over 100 do you like boys?
Yeah.
Flames are not.
No.
Worst power play in the NHL.
Is it?
Although, well, three for three, that might have bumped them up.
I think it's, I think there's 30th now.
Yeah.
Out of the three for the big night in Columbus.
Yeah.
And good on them for that long overdue.
First time they've scored three.
And you know, you may want to take, like, I, I, I know the point that would be the same.
I mean, you're giving shit to Trent call.
They got a top 10 penalty.
Well, this goes back to the re-biggled t-shirts and all the other stuff that we're just kind of full shit.
We're just joking.
We're not allowed to have fun.
Very serious.
You're being cheeky.
Cheeky.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The flames power play up to 30s, you know, now 15.4%, 0.2% better than the Islanders last place powerplay.
They'll be in town for the opener of a five-game homestand on the weekend.
It's Perak play.
Perks definitely got to watch a lot of hockey on this five-game road trip.
Correct playing.
Jack is correct playing?
I don't know.
Oh, well, you knew if Kuli was.
They got five right-hand D, and they're playing three at a time.
Pristavich has also sort of been the odd man out as they've used Pahal a bit here and there.
I feel bad for Pahal, because I like how Pahal play.
The Hall is an ass that you should probably move, given how many right shots you got.
He comes in and plays his ass off.
He's great.
And then is the first one to go up.
And again, it's just a five.
function of having so many bleeping righties.
It's Uyghur. It's Anderson. It's Paul himself.
It's Brestevich. It's Perak who's return. That's five righties.
Most teams have one or two.
Like it's, they're, it's very unique to have this many writings.
It's a embarrassment of riches.
Uh, you could be is the young guys develop.
And it's not a common theme around the league because right handers are
hard to rare.
Uh, if, if we fast forward one month to today and you have not.
bought a Valentine's Day gift.
Oh, buddies, buddies.
Today's a dark day.
February 15th.
Tough day.
It will be a tough day if you do not get your poop in a group and get something bought.
And we tell you every time an occasion comes, we just tell you in general.
But with a month away, market mall, it's just over there.
Just over there.
I've been there.
Over there.
Vinova, Calgary's labgrown diamond specialists, the showroom.
has the largest selection of lab-grown diamonds in our fine country.
Earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets, all of them with lab-grown diamonds, the same chemical
composition and crystal structure as an earth-mine diamond.
In some cases, they're even more pristine and perfect in nature.
Yet still, 50, 60, 70% less than that stuff they're digging out of the ground.
Sounds wrong. Take advantage while you can.
Yeah, those bottle collectors or whatever they got to do it.
Shovelers, right?
Is that what you want?
You want this guy showing up?
Hey, you want to buy rock.
You got a shovel and a bindle?
Kind of rock.
You don't want any bindle diamonds.
Trust you.
Then you got Justin and the wonderful staff of Vina Nova.
Those are people you can trust.
Showroom and market mall.
Grab it, get it done.
Tuck it away.
Then on the 14th, you pass along this love.
Here you go.
They will be so impressed and so surprised.
Yeah, because you're probably.
Because yeah, you're probably an idiot.
fail a lot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is a win.
This is a guaranteed win.
There's not many of them in life.
Take it.
Take the easy win.
Easy dub.
Do it.
Lotspark.
Marketball.
Venanova.com.
I got looking this morning.
Uh-oh.
Had some things.
Is that why you were late?
I guess I'm easy.
Kind of was, actually.
Like, oh, I got time to take a look at this.
I'm not sure it was worth it.
But, um.
because I was like
well Bernard still leads the hawks
and scoring even though he missed like 12 games
he's still tops and scoring
very good it's like I wonder
it's like well yeah because we keep
trotting it out sorry Nazam we keep
just like one point in his last eight one of his last
nine one is last one is last 11 games
still leads the flames in scoring
really
32
but the run he never goes on he hasn't caught him
I know
that's the same kind of run Naz is
on that's why. Yeah, similar runs. Same line. So yeah, it's kind of, yeah, I guess.
That's kind of how that goes. Blake Coleman has missed a couple of games, still leading them
in goals. Let's see that. What are you 13? So you don't like the re-biggle, but now you're doing
it. Oh, they can have a guy hit 20 goals. I'm not, well, I was going to say, I, I'm not
complaint. It's just, again, this is almost kind of cheeky building the case as to what
need what this this looks like a team that needs to take a certain path.
To give you the information.
You can do it that.
Yeah.
And then you can decide what kind of recipe you want to.
13 goals for Coleman.
Coronado has 12, backland 11.
Coronado will get you 20.
Coleman will be traded.
So no.
Coleman traded?
So that was one of the things that I was like, are they going to have a 20 goal guy this
year?
So Coleman needs seven.
I'm trying to think of if a team ever had it.
like a season without a 20 goal guy like a full season like there's gotta be an
insolence well we're playing here because they were terrible god that's
straggs how we've got kale house jersey yeah like bonnard ward are you gonna bump
all your buddy at willman there huh is your buddy willam in that group oh I said
oh did you're yeah yeah terrible uh so yeah it feels like coronado would be the
the best hope for 20.
He'll get there. He'll get you 20. He's got to get eight in the next half of season, roughly,
a little less than half. He's probably right on paste. He's right there. He's probably,
but he's also on IR. Just on that clear. Coronado.
Coronado? Sorry, I thought you're talking. No. So we'll talk about. Coronado. Yeah, he's sort
of been trending around 25 most of the year after that's the start. I like, because I don't, I don't
think Blake gets there. Obviously, he's got to not be traded. And I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Playing helps.
I don't think that he
I don't think we should have
The last time it happened was in 08-09
The Islanders
Oh the islanders I was like the flames
I'm like Iggy was here there's no time before that
0304 Carolina Hurricanes and then the 01 wild
But like when you're talking about those early 2000s
That's the lowest scoring era of hockey
Like that's the dead puck era
Which made Iggy's 51 or 52
Like incredibly impressive like pro rated
That's like high 60s
incredible rate
Harry, yeah.
So then I went a step further.
I just thought is there,
and this one isn't as important,
you could just kind of think,
well, where are some of the teams in the bottom?
With Cadry, 32 points to lead the team in points,
and the 13 goals for Coleman,
what other team out there has a leading goal score
with as many or fewer?
Or do they rank in the league?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you could probably, well,
what's probably one of the worst teams, and you'd be right.
I was stunned to see Vancouver.
Elias Pedersen leads Vancouver in scoring with 28 points.
It's missed time two, I think. That is a rough total.
Yeah, so he's got 28 and 38, but no one else has picked up the slack.
Kiefer Sherwood has 17 goals.
And that's a great story.
That's a bottom six guy that's a banger that's scoring a ton.
But the garlands and Bessers and the rest have not.
It's not been tremendous.
Also, Jordan Eberle leads the crack, and he has 30 points.
So those will be the two teams who's leading point getter has fewer than.
Ebs is a bit of a heater.
Is it a really nice run that's coincidental.
He also has games.
Yeah.
So points per game, it's better for them individually, but for the team.
Nonetheless, from the team's perspective, those are some low scoring teams, low event hockey.
And as far as the goal scoring,
Coleman has 13
the St. Louis Blues
have three men tied with
11 for the team
Oh dear. Robert Thomas
Justin Falk and Jake Neighbors
Oh dear
Each have 11 goals
St. Louis in a rough way man
And we talked about it the other day
It's like you just played the coach card
Last fall
So like what do you do here
Kind of feels like it's the GM's time to
And he came out and he said
Look like we didn't mind our coach
They had their HL guy come up from like it's Springfield
when a guy of Montgomery's ilk is available, plans change.
You can't just pivot from that a year later.
It makes you look like the dumb, dumb.
Right?
And it feels like the coach has kind of played some cards.
Cairo, you're a healthy scratch.
You're back in, the goalie, this, that.
And the GM again saying everyone's.
I'm doing too much, coach.
Because I remember him in Boston, one of the best teams.
And it was like his face was melting.
he was bound tight as they collect 128 points yeah
guys are like chill out
yeah ease up on the on the gas coach
maybe not eight coffees coach but anyway so then and seconds away from
beating winnipeg last year
yeah and loved how they played big physical head they ran the
piss out of winnipeg right yeah it was bang
crash, smashing everyone.
Like it was great.
Not for a miraculous finish during round two.
And I don't know.
Is it how surprised should we be?
They, as we all know, very well documented,
they finished tied in points with the flames,
we got in on a tie break so that they are now
this season in the same point, you know,
bracketing, I guess,
same area of the standings as the flames are.
Maybe we shouldn't be that surprised.
I just look at that.
I think there's more talent there.
And that's why this is more shocking.
like Coltrane was going in the Olympics like Kyru Thomas those those are guys
you're like yeah those are really good players you'd love to have those guys you know
Philip Broberg's a good young player Holloway is a good you know in middle six
piece whether it's wing or center like I'm surprised that they've struggled that
they've they're right there with the flames and goal scoring at the bottom like it's
that that that is not what I would have guessed what about Vancouver they're done
you pros man no I understand that drilling it
You brought it up yesterday.
I don't think you were talking about the flames necessarily,
but Elias Pedersen with great young player, struggles.
Oh, God, could be available.
Maybe this is how you get one of those.
You don't often get it.
Then is play Alibati.
So, well, you, maybe we, maybe you slept on getting Pedersen out of Vancouver.
They may have done a deal.
That, but those, that ship is back in port.
I believe the ship has, yeah, I don't think.
Anyone since that connoxious with J.T. Miller would have offered a trade that suggested they think he could get back to an $11.6 million player.
Because people just want to see it.
There's been too much noise around that.
But if they see it, they ain't getting them.
Fair.
Or it's like, hey, we're willing to pay your ask, but he's got to start looking like a 1C again.
And you talk about it all the time.
116 is still 116, but with an increasing cap.
Is there a team that maybe is like, well, that's, that's,
116
and 2027
28 is that
I do wonder
he has to get back
to what he was
before the
drama with J.T. Miller
But you talk
I'm just telling you
just try and pretend a little bit
because we sit here
and you cannot get
Franchise Center
you can't get these guys
You are taking a massive swing
Yeah
You're taking a big cut
With your driver
or your
Whatever the bats
Are made of
Maple
Maple
You want to start again
Oh why
Good analogy
Keep going
You're taking a big swing, regardless of the instrument.
Yes.
And the upside would be if he comes around, brilliant.
Like, freaking brilliant.
But the downside is you've got 11.5 of 28 points.
Imagine if you've got this Pedersen or last year's Pedersen and someone like
you were, you're like, that's 22 million box.
Well, yeah, no one's going to have two dogs.
No, but I'm just saying like the risk is so high.
I understand why it hasn't.
We're playing pretend.
I just think there's so many questions around them.
I do too.
Does he love hockey?
Is he talented at it?
Is he a nice guy to get along with?
Does he burn to win?
I don't know the answer.
It's not the type of questions that fall almost one sees, right?
I'm with you.
I'm with you guys.
But I just see that it's like, oh, Vancouver.
There's a time.
Maybe they would.
Okay.
Well, we saw the Zegras thing.
No one's going to touch Zegaris.
Oh, well, a bit of a rejuvenation there.
Could this guy do it?
The other thing is too, he's already.
27. Yeah. Right. It's not. Should be prime. You're, yeah, you're, you're getting some prime years, but you're also getting some back.
You're getting some. Well, again, if he plays the way he's supposed to play, you're not worried about that.
The question becomes, okay, I want pet it. What are you going to give up? Because that answers your questions, right? You're running a team.
And so when the price is what Zegras was last summer, go do it. Yeah. But what they asked for Zeggris for three years before that, no one said yes to. It had to get so bad.
Yeah, like right now, if I'm running a team, would I take him?
Sure.
Are you giving them to me?
Right.
What?
You want a first and a player in return?
Well, I'd be asking them to retain.
Yeah.
Like who's got 12 million bucks just sitting there not being used?
No contenders.
No, I would have to be a creative type of a deal.
Vancouver would have to really want to get rid of.
How many stipulations could he put into the deal too?
And that's why he's probably just going to stay in van, right?
because it's going to be a painful deal for them to make.
And the best thing they can do is try to get him back to where he was.
Then you get back, then they've got them.
They've got a one seat.
Or the assets, yeah.
Well, if you get Pedersen back to an 80 or 100 point guy, why are you giving him off?
Well, maybe you're just like in the throes of a really deep rebuild, right?
And it's like we can get more first.
But again, if you've got the 100 point guy, then you've already crossed.
You're not in the throws anymore.
If he's at anyway.
To me, it would be like Ryan says.
If you are, but it's not the different crew, but if you're in there and you're running things and you've decided, this guy doesn't burn to win.
We're not winning with this guy.
He can get a bunch of points.
Then the postseason comes around.
He's pouting at press conferences and I just, I need to get out from under this.
Kind of like they did with OEL, right?
We just need to move on.
That's Dylan Gunther scoring a lot of goals to give up the pick from.
Yeah.
So, I mean, dissimilar from a buyout.
It would be, well, we're going to make a trade.
just to get out from under this.
And in that instance, at this point,
you're eating salary and you're taking a problem back.
That's no fun.
And it's like, we're already bad.
Like, what do we?
You need an Arizona district where you can dump them
and they expand.
They got bribed to take some bad contracts for a while there,
just to get to the floor.
So that's that.
That's the scoop out there.
And like you say, they are,
whatever that hybrid.
rebuild that they're doing.
It's,
it is on.
Heronics, a huge
trade share for them.
He's a really good defenseman.
He's a point behind Pedersen,
and he's not like a,
just old fence.
Like, if you move him and then it's like,
well, now you've probably got to move the brus
because he's on the back nine and like he could help a contender,
but he's not going to help you in a rebuild.
No.
Like,
it kind of looks like despite the owners can,
like refusal to rebuild,
they might be forced into it there.
steel our shoes or shirts.
We'll have to
hybrid rebuild.
That's the shirt out there. Hybrid rebuild.
You can't do a hybrid rebuild.
We can here.
Well, if Demp goes
healthy playing the way he's supposed to, you
can do a hybrid rebuild.
Yeah. And on a moving
Heronic and moving
Patterson.
Keyfer Sherwood.
Whoever you, the assets you have
you can get things in return
and rebuild.
But if you don't have a goalie,
there's no hybrid
rebuild and that's the
that's the
truly truly believe that's the
flame's biggest asset whatever
you know what I mean like you're not
one of the hardest pieces it's not scorched earth
you've got the toughest piece to find
yeah one of them it's like top center and goalie
they go and a goalie can win
when a top center
a goalie can win you games on his own
a top center can't unless
he's a superstar
Super, super, like, your O4 team did not have a number one center.
And that's not a shot at the end.
One top 20 forward.
Wow, that's being pretty critical.
But like, it was, it was an incredible, some of the parts,
greater than the individual pieces.
But you went to the cup final without a number one center.
Like, Connie on a contending team would be a two C and a great one.
It's not a shot of Connie.
It's just that even if you just go back post like that 89 when that whole group dissolved,
like since they got rid of the New Indykes and the Gilmore's like,
Have they ever had a number one center?
Like Monaghan flashed it for a bit, but the injuries were always looming.
Lindholm, we thought was for a moment, but it was because Godrow and Kachukkah were on his wings.
Like, they haven't had a number one center for, it feels like three decades.
They tried with Yokinen.
He wasn't it.
That was a poor try, Darrow.
We tried a couple times.
That went back to the well.
And it's interesting with Vancouver, and I don't know, is it their run through the playoffs two seasons ago,
that maybe gave them the impression.
because you've got
they were on their way
Debrusca's in year two
of a seven year deal
Veronica is in year two
of an eight year deal
and Besser just signed
a seven year deal
he's in year one
and Pedersen's got
how many left?
Ah, that's five maybe
it's five-ish
he is in year two of eight
yeah so he's got
six years left
so they've got
he got a lot of guys
signed up for a long time
that's cat all
just because
let's be honest
the Pedersons got to be better.
That's going to be a real boat anchor out there for them.
But they're drafting in the top three guaranteed this year.
It seems like it.
There's no way they're not.
Yeah.
They're not taken out of it.
They're last and they're going to stay last.
It seems that way.
Unless Demko gets back.
And you nailed it with the Demko health thing.
It's just no one knows what they're going to get.
He could be healthy the rest of the year.
He could never play another game.
Like it's been two years of the strangest, weirdest, no timeline injury.
stuff. And if that's going to be
one of your core pieces, which he absolutely is
when he's right, like, I don't know what
you're going to get from him. I don't know he's going to play again this year.
I don't know he's going to play 20 games. Like, how do you?
I do not trust that he's coming back this year.
The history is horrifying. And if you're
the, he's right, he's great.
If you're at the GM and the corner, you're not
playing. I don't care if you feel good.
Yeah, you're right for the fall.
Last. And I can
hear the people in Vancouver's, oh,
you're Padresia. What about Hubberto?
100%. Yeah, no, you're right.
I would make that swap.
Sure you would.
Any conversation ends with the, yeah, but what about Huberto?
And we more than anyone realize that.
The only difference to the point, it's irrelevant.
We don't talk about it because it's immovable objects.
Yeah, it's gravity.
It's just here.
We don't talk about it.
He's 32.
He makes 10 and a half.
He has five years left.
It's the worst contract in in.
Can't buy it out.
Can't trade it.
You're married to it.
Yeah.
So yes.
You win.
My back.
That would help.
But the difference to where Vancouver's at and where Calgary's at is that Calgary has done a really nice job of the last two years in the draft of just collecting young players where the Canucks have been in trade and try to pretend we're a playoff caliber team mode.
There are a few seasons behind Calgary in terms of building that pipeline of kids that might be good NHL players.
They got a project on their hands for sure.
They do. And the owner's tough. It's similar but dissimilar to here.
Like there's a really, really hard time for the owner to commit to rebuild.
But the difference is you hear from them a lot, whereas the owner here we never hear from, which is his prerogative.
That's fine.
Jack, what do you think?
I mean, we need a Huberto Island.
I'm curious your thoughts.
Bro it up just the world.
State of affairs.
State of affairs in the world?
Yeah.
Not great.
Thanks, John.
Not great.
Back to you, Dean.
I'm going to text Greg with your New York.
steak he was sending me the haggis video he's loving it i got to try it i'm one of those guys
i'll try it i'll try anything but i uh you know it's it is funny because like we everyone is hot
dogs no one wants to know other made with haggis everyone gets explicitly shown and told how it's made
and it's like we don't need that we don't need it it does it taste good i don't need to know it and i've
still yet to have anyone come up to me and say this is delicious that's the only thing is because a hot dog
people love hot dogs
they're at ball games
it's everywhere you go
the thing with Agus
you don't hear what the flavor
or it's similar to this
it's oh you know what it's made out of
and what they pack it in
so it does have you know what bad optics
if they were serving
the Haggis PR firm
has some real damage
Big Hagas got to step it up
Big Haggis come on
if they were serving
Hagas at the ballpark
or the football games
foot long Hagas
yeah go to
go to Green Bay and have Haggis.
Okay.
Maybe this is somewhere.
Philly cheese steak.
Chili Haggis, yeah.
A rugby game in Scotland?
Yeah, I'll have one.
Yeah, yeah.
It's kind of like the...
Haggis pie.
What's the Stampede delicacy on the bowl?
Prairie oysters.
Like, if you just had a tasting tray of meats, you wouldn't care.
You'd be like, okay, sure, it's all meat.
But you find out, and it's like, why did you tell me that?
Now I have to think about that.
Right.
Yeah.
You're kind of setting up for failure.
Bad marketing.
Big Agas.
They really, yeah, they need to fire their entire PR staff.
Their marketing has been.
Big Haggis, spent some money on Barmer.
We're going to be horrendous.
Rebrand this thing.
If you love Hagas and who doesn't,
Bontan meat market is the place to go.
Delicious.
Send us all your pictures of you guys crushing your Bon Ton
Haggis.
Yeah.
True.
When you're having Hagas, send us the photos.
We want to see it.
Robbie Burns Day, two weeks, I think.
With all those smiling faces and satisfied filled bellies around your Robbie Burns table.
It's heart warner.
Do the flames just don't want to pace for 50 points?
Done with the bontone?
Because, you know, I love me some bonton.
Bonton.
I do know you love you some bonton.
Because you made that, I mean, the New York's he had last night for bonton.
28 crowfoot circle.
In the Northwest, yes, Hagus plus, of course, all the
AAA Alberta beef, fresh-raised port, which you brine, tip by you.
Brian, your pork chops.
Oh, got it.
So good.
And that stops them from getting dry or is in flavor or both?
Both.
That's a win.
Yeah, it's a two-banger.
Free-range chicken, turkey, lamb, veal, in-store made salads.
Don't sleep on the salads, delicious desserts.
And, of course, the meat pies,
legendary 28 crowfoot circle in northwest, 25 straight years of Alberta's consumer choice award
winner for best meat and deli. Ryan told me something that he's going to next week. And I want
him to wear a re-biggle to that event. That's probably not going to go over a while.
Please. It's a dress-up party. So they don't. But it's, you can come and wear it. That's fine.
We should set up outside and sell them. So the fact that you would be,
sheepish in being seen wearing one in a certain...
Does that speak to the nature of the...
It's a certain event and kind of rubbing it in face a little bit.
I think, you know, we...
The way I view this show, stuttering, I'm rebeggling.
I know. Do you are?
Like, people come here to be part of a fan base and share pain with us and enjoy entertainment.
That's different than waving something in someone's face.
Okay.
we walk it we're walking a bit of a fine line so and again like behind people's backs no less than that
but it's more just like i don't have a problem with 90 plus percent of this flames roster in terms of
the players are now hard they work they're doing the best they can i'm not looking at guys i'm like
why are you so worse than you should be there's probably one exception we don't even need to name it
because everyone knows um everyone is doing the best they can they didn't build this roster the GM now didn't
build this roster. He's had to deal with what was left. And, you know, everything is completely
lining up the way we wanted to go except for one interview in November, which completely either
was tone deaf, idiotic, or not what they're actually doing. That's the problem. That's the pepper.
That doesn't match with everything else they're doing. Idiotic. Pepper. But why would you let that guy do
that? Okay. Well, you've established your point many times. Whether it's pepper or not, it's true, right?
ill-advised.
But it's the terminology that you use sometimes to get your point across.
It's the pepper.
And it's some of the stuff in the re-bigel shirt that is the pepper.
It's fine.
It's good.
But it's also, he loves context, right?
And so the context of it is we have an opinion on how they should approach things because of the past,
track of the history of how this team is operated.
And we don't proclaim to be perfect.
But our opinion is different than how they're operating at Saddle Dome Riseway.
And part of the problem I go back to is they should be,
we shouldn't be sheepish about wearing a re-biggle shirt to that because they should laugh about it.
The problem that I sometimes have with the organization is there is an air of importance and greatness and seriousness that does not match their track record.
When you look at the last 30 plus years,
they've essentially gotten into the top quarter of the league like twice.
If you get to the second round of the playoffs, you're in the top quartile.
And I don't think if I objectively look at results I have in something,
and I know they're well below average, in fact, over time probably near the bottom,
that I would carry myself the same way.
And I don't think everyone in the organization does, but at certain points,
you're just like, why is there arrogance?
What are you proud of?
You've been so incredibly below average for three decades.
Like twice you've made it to the second round since 2004.
Twice.
That's 22 years now that'll be.
Can we ask for more than twice than 22 years for you to get into the top quarter of the league?
We're not even asking you to the number one.
That'd be unbelievable.
Like this fan base wants hope.
You know this is all, this, like we're all in agreement.
And I'm not trying to convince you, but this is the context of where,
I don't really get like if someone's going to be like well how could you do that was like well look at your track record how could you do that
there's another side to it too is that all organizations want some control over the narrative yeah and so if you want to hear the content you get a listen to yeah there's not ram it down anyone's throat not forced people to buy these yeah and again I just kind of let you go of course that's all that is that's very level headed and well thought up you know
out very thoughtful.
You didn't call anyone stupid or an idiot.
I haven't called.
I'd said the decision was,
and I think they would acknowledge that.
People in the organization have said that to me,
that that was really not a smart decision
to allow what was said to be said
on a game that was broadcast for everyone to see.
Yeah, yeah.
Amid, you know, a season where they remain in the bottom three
for almost the entirety of the season so far.
Like to talk about winning culture,
when your history is the exact opposite of that,
would look a little silly.
Yeah, if you're an NFL team
with the same track record,
like if you're the Cleveland Browns
and you're talking about your winning culture,
people are going to make some t-shirts.
Just, you know,
and then we'll move on
because I'm just kind of taking the piss out of it.
There's going to just to kind of keep
the Hagas
analogy going.
Sure.
We could just have Rebiggle
without the descriptor.
No, I like the script.
You could have, you know,
it's like, just tell us about haggis.
Yeah, we don't need to know how it's made.
you know what I mean it's sometimes less is more when you give an artist a project you have to give them creative
all right leeway okay and that's right and if you can't laugh at that I'm sorry it's not for the owner of
the t-shirt you'd probably get tired be like what is re-biggle for people that don't know it's just right there
it's right there it's smaller font too so there uh let's um someone's got to be out of here
That's early.
I think he's just trying to move things along.
Taxman.
Yeah, January.
Okay.
Hey, spend report for Village Honda.
The Winter Ready SUV event is on.
It may feel like summer out there.
Don't be fooled.
We have a matter of moments before it's icy roads and snow again.
Four by four is all-wheel drives.
Check out their inventory at VillageHonda.com.
Get up to the lot in the Northwest Auto Mall.
It's your dealership for life.
We start on a game day.
Hawks have had the Flames number this year.
Are the Flames due or the Hawks?
Going to do it again.
We find out at 6.30 p.m. Mountain, right?
You're all over this.
Oh, I love mountain time.
It's bottom of the clock start time.
There you go.
There's Connor Zeri.
He's been playing great of late.
He'll be up against Connor Bedard's hawks.
Turn the corner seemingly coming out of the holidays without him.
Now he's back.
I'm kind of anticipating a, oh, Britain points hurt.
Remember me?
Type of play from Bedard from now until the Olympic
roster free.
Remember me?
Top four in scoring when I got hurt.
And this guy here on the screen,
he has played only three games.
Last game was one of them.
He played 1743 just the third time
he's had more than 17 minutes of ice.
Keep going.
He's playing it.
Right now, four points in three games
since December 29th,
seven points in his last eight.
He had 10 in the first 36.
Play this guy.
Keep playing him.
Keep playing him.
100%.
This knee is finally feeling better.
He's starting to come around.
feeling better. He's got a, you know, limber. He was celebrating the goal by Columbus the other night.
He said, why is here? He got his arms in the air. He's in full re-biggle mode. I don't know that that's what I think he was probably gesturing towards the referee for a miss.
Well, refs for idiots. We know that. Yeah. So, with that said, many people close to the team that aren't buying re-biggle t-shirts have suggested the time is right for the flames to trade Rastom Sanderson. That's the title of the Eric Francis article.
reputable. This is someone that
when trades are about to go,
he always hears about it first. He's around the team.
And it's not him. It's Pat Steinberg who was
postgame in Columbus talking about
top Rasmus moments, 24 to
48 hour window. This could be coming to a head.
Why don't you call one of those guys that was texting you and find out
what the hell's going on? Yeah, what the inside
school? Did love to share an info. Tell them, we'll pull the
come, we'll pull the
shirts. Give us a scoop.
You're suggesting that it's someone
who would have that kind of knowledge. I'm not
saying you're tight.
Go ahead, Ryan.
Well, the folks over at Flames Nation aren't sleeping either.
In fact, we've got an entire series on what a Rasmus Anderson train could look like with multiple different teams.
One from Liam, Liam and me.
Mable.
I see you rolled your way into the semis.
Let me tell you something, Pandejo.
Okay.
There's the Boston Burns one.
There's other teams that would be interested in Rasmus Anderson.
Dallas Stars.
What would that look like?
There's probably even more.
Same guy wrote it.
What else is going on?
Liam. Oh, it's Adrian Kiss.
Oh, Kissmaster. What about Detroit Redwigs? What would that look like?
Parker up. Kisserino. Oh, Robert Delaney.
Delaney. I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died. Delaney done.
Dick you done.
Well, I don't. Charlie Pry.
Vegas Golden Knights, another team. Those are all teams that have been mentioned a lot. Detroit, Boston, Vegas, and Dallas. All for different reasons in the sense, is it fit? Is it a place that we've heard to the grapevine? He's willing to extend.
Is it a team that is a right shot top four away from feeling like a wagon?
I love that the reaction online is just immediately, don't do Vegas.
Not knowing it could be nine first rounders.
Just don't trade, no, don't trade him to Vegas.
There's some of that.
I feel like they should trade him to Vegas because he's going to be horseshit when it gets older.
And that's, oh, when's that going to be?
That's chess, not checkers.
Right.
Good.
Got it.
I like it.
That's a harsh word.
So he might not be.
Probably one of those 14 or 15 year olds, he'd be getting a bad.
Problem with Vegas is.
You want a 17 or 18-year-old.
They're sneaky bastards.
They'll give your first rounder,
and it'll be a 12-year-olds.
You know what Vegas?
The talk about being sneaky bastards.
They have 16 regulation wins.
It's a horrid number.
Flames have 15.
And yet they're leading the division.
How?
Overtime, friends.
They beat the Kings in overtime last night again.
So are you good enough to win a regulation?
No.
Is that how good?
Is that how teams do it?
Benzman would have 22 minutes
to night.
Do you miss Petrangelo?
Because he was a rite show.
He and Hannifan.
They had an existing relationship.
He could probably just stay at his house.
Well, if he wants scouting reports,
he's got friends in Boston,
Lid Holmes at Oro.
He's clearly got Hanofin who we spent time
playing with a bunch in Calgary.
Old friends.
All right.
Well, who do you like?
Where do you want him to go?
Out of conference.
Best offer, don't care.
Yeah.
Can I see what the offers are?
Well, if you called your buddy, you might know.
It's a be all leaky pants telling you all the deals.
Oh,
you big scoop for Barm Burr and Dean.
Come on.
Really big.
Come on.
That would fault us to the top of the podcast.
Universe.
Yeah.
Universe.
Suck it, Rogan.
There's some big podcasts out there, guys.
So amongst us or even.
Well, we're amongst them in that I guess we're a podcast.
We're also on YouTube.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's but we're the similarity.
Now we talked about it.
Blake Coleman put on IR.
Open's a roster spot.
Go ahead.
Joe Rogan.
What would they over under be on this happening in the next 24?
I don't have any feel on this.
I'm just,
when I see Francis An Steinberg saying that this is close,
I believe that.
Yeah, like it's just to people.
No, I, I, it's, it would only be against 40%.
I have no, like what would, what would, throw a dart.
I don't know.
I said Friday.
I've, I've staked my claim, gold claim.
Put a flag in it.
Yeah.
Ribby steak or?
I would have a.
Yeah.
I'm going with New York today.
That's tomorrow.
So that would be in the next 24 hours.
This afternoon.
So let's say this.
They play in the afternoon on Saturday against the Islanders.
Does the deal get done before the Islanders game?
No one has any intel.
Let's randomly guess at the future.
That's right.
Yeah.
Basing it on nothing, it's a, yeah.
Just say the word yes or say the word no.
Jack?
Yes.
Right, right?
Yes.
No.
No.
That's good radio right there.
That's, isn't that great?
That's why people tune in.
Man, think about how much people have learned.
You should have heard them bickering on after that barn burner thing today.
It's like two guys said yes and two said no.
It was heated.
Whoa.
We need a fifth.
Call Bobby Munich.
Who eats Bobby.
Germany, what are you doing?
Get off the cuck chair.
Get over here.
We need a fifth vote.
Jesus.
What?
The words you use,
I swear you don't even know you're saying.
I'm talking about the size of old.
Ryan, go ahead, dryers.
Let's go.
Deep moving.
So when in need,
it's hunting.
It is.
Driving Hunt.
Kelvin back out, boys.
See, this is the problem.
I was going to bring this up
in a conversation earlier.
I don't think we dislike
any of the people or players
or what they offer as players
individually.
I don't dislike Dryden Hunt.
I want Dryden Hunt to do well.
He's the best Dryden Hunt
can be.
It's a fine Dryden Hunt.
The problem being, I have no reason to add him to my roster if I'm the Calgary Flames.
Now, would part of this be he's recently cleared waivers and wouldn't have?
Like, is that?
Well, Gridden doesn't require waivers and Hunt's in the miners.
So I'm saying over because I think they're just leaving Gridden.
Well, that was instead of a Rory Karens or somebody else who would have.
Again, maybe.
All I'm saying is maybe.
Hunt will come in on the right side.
Klapka moves up to the top line.
Who's missing here?
Who's missing here?
Huberto is away from Cadry.
so that's a thing
Kirkland
Stramgren out hunting
there you
poor husk was at the
Viaggar triangle last day
just tried to figure out why
I'm like what do I do here
Brestevich back
Brestovitch in for Pahal
they've been rotating
still no Perek
I hope you enjoyed your five game
road trip get healthy
if you're not healthy
I don't know what's good
Yeah if he's hurt
that's fine
but is that what they're proclaiming
they're saying he's hurt
Oh all right well
And if that's the case and you wanted to fly him into Montreal to get him with the fellas, cool.
But why is he just traveling now?
Is he not better working on rehabbing or, you know?
Is he on the road?
Do we know that?
Yeah, well, he was with him in Montreal.
It doesn't matter if he was in Montreal because it wasn't they were on the road?
Yeah, maybe they sent him home.
That's fair.
I don't know that.
That's not the case.
That's fair.
I'm assuming he's on the road.
I don't know that.
There's your schedule.
A lot of games, Ryan.
Well, it's five in a row at home after the Chicago game.
And it is eight of their next nine at home.
Bellas.
Bellas.
Very good home team.
Don't.
Oh, do you need the camera?
Sorry.
Fellas.
Ryan's monologuing.
I've seen your road record.
320 points percentage on the road.
Miserable.
Hey, that's okay.
Not your fault.
Home team.
Don't.
Don't screw this up.
Just the question.
Just the question.
Get the wheels of motion quickly here.
Stronger need to come out for Hunter.
That's the other part of it.
where Pinder was very excited about Strombard.
I would like to see Stromgren, but they just aren't going to play him.
So it's like, okay, well, if you're not going to play him, then it, but even here,
even if it's eight minutes, two minutes, shouldn't you be pulling the, I would much
prefer Stromgren.
I also understand that Ryan Husker probably has a strong preference for hunt at this point
because he's still trying to get.
Strombon sucks so bad hunting season.
I didn't see anything negative about Stromven's game, but I really like, get this
plug out of here.
And it's probably the least impactful.
minutes of the entire. Well, it should be more impactful because Husk needs to play these
guys because the other dusters aren't doing it. We'd like to see the kids. And you know what?
There's probably lots of time for that this season. Bill Stromgren would bring in motion and energy.
Well, passion. Yeah. I don't. There may, there may be a easily, he's sick. He got, I don't know.
He's played three games. He's averaging seven minutes and 17 cents. Yeah. And it's not the end of the
world, it's not about a win or loss tonight.
It's not the end of the world. It's not about the
winner or loss, but it is about knowing what your
player is, and this is a wonderful opportunity
for you to find out at the NHL level.
A conscious decision was made to remove one guy
to put the other guy in. I'm just curious.
Why? Dick.
Dick Stromgren? Yeah.
Dougged. Dury Dick.
Swedes. Nice fellas. I don't know. The Swedes lately
have been winers in my opinion. Okay.
I should move on. I'm going to get run out of here.
Let's look at Chicago and we'll see a red can
Boles for you, buddy.
Aquavit restaurant when you're in New York City,
if it's still open,
check it out.
The best meat.
We're just heading over to IKEA to grab some shelves.
You cannot come in here.
Yeah.
It's getting blacklisted in Vegas.
Yeah, this case.
But our top center,
Bertuzi in the Nazar slot,
it's not a great team,
but they've got some good young players coming.
Hurtuzzi's up the 20 story, right?
24 goals.
Great here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you noted that strong stuff.
24?
24 goals.
That's a 40-gold base.
That's pretty good.
That's real good.
Not bad at all.
D-Man, let's take a peek of that.
Lefshunov, the second overall pick they really like.
He's getting more minutes, as you noted.
Blasick's a big galute, left-shot guy.
And they got a couple grizzled vets on the third pair, grizzled and Murphy.
Well, D-partner's nephew.
Who was it?
Alan.
Maybe he's an extra there.
He was up there last year, wasn't it?
in net and injuries
Spencer Knight
Sodder Blums the backup
and Nazar and Tarvine and
out
Badard's been day to day
I expect him he'll be in tonight
Yeah he was he missed the one game
In Edmonton
Because he was under the weather
But was that practice yesterday
He'll play as those three guys at the bottom
That's a fairly integral part of
That's a good line
Good players yeah
That could be a teleline
Both goalies have beaten the flames this year too
Hawks are two and all
both guys were in.
4-0-0-5-2.
And if you're looking in the bottom 10,
Hawks are in there.
Flames very close to getting into that 31 hole.
Winnipeg's playing much better.
Winnipeg's the only one I feel comfortable.
Or Vancouver's the only one I feel comfortable with staying where they are.
If I had to project the bottom three,
I'm going Vancouver, Calvary, St. Louis.
Rangers putting on a bit of a show, though, right now.
And at the other edge, like that's 50 now for the devils, right?
I think they won last night.
all of a sudden, 42, 41, 30.
Because it was, oh, we're a couple points away from a wild card,
and we're a couple points out of the basement.
It's starting to spread out a bit.
Yeah, spread, spread, spread, spread, spread.
It's in mid-January, I suppose that's natural.
But it's, it was kind of interesting how close to both ends.
Everything was despite being late December.
Totally.
Finals from last night.
We'll take a peek at those.
So we had a lighter slate.
Good to the last drop, the Vegas Golden Knights and Kings go to overtime at the bottom.
Sends piled on the.
Rangers, they're in a tough way. Your boy, Mike Sullivan's getting air rated on the socials, Jack.
What's happening in New York? Told you guys. We were, we were early to that. He's no good. He's done.
Solly's cooked? He's cooked. Where do you get a five years? Rangers have lost five in a row.
They are five, 13, and four. That's five wins in 22 home games. They're their worst home team in the
NHL. They've given up 30 goals in their five game losing Skid. They were down for nothing in the first last night.
That's quick.
Something's awry with that score.
We hit the minus one and a half by a fair amount with the Sends.
We can be disappointed in the flames and how they're approaching things,
but the Rangers feel like a team that just doesn't give it.
They can have a yard sale.
The flames actually come across, well, not come across.
They play like they care.
It's interesting because the captain and the GM kind of have that same sulky attitude.
Well, what it is, it's American arrogance.
Oh, is that is.
Yeah.
Jack.
JT Miller.
JT just wants to go to Milan.
He's like, give me off.
I've seen lots of it.
I live with it.
Buffalo,
another big win.
That's over Philly,
who is also vying for a playoff spot.
How many people are going to get on the Sabres train here?
Join it, boys.
I was on.
Jack,
come on.
Let's go out.
The Sabers have won 14 of 16.
Oh,
yeah.
They got five on 14 shots.
So if you can rely on that,
Bladar gave up two on five,
I guess hurt his spirit and left the game.
Yeah, he might be hurt someone was saying,
but I'd ever be seen it from an official story.
And Norris got hurt again.
I do have that.
Yeah.
A cross check in the Haribs.
Now, Ribs is better than shoulders.
Shoulders have been the big problem he's had.
And then I missed the first final there, Jackson.
If they were up 4 to 2, that might be, you don't know when that happened.
Devil's got to win.
You mentioned that.
How come you go bottom to the top?
I just, I watched the King's Knights last night.
So I started.
He's your two goals.
Devil's back to back after a four games skid.
Darpell, Jacob, Markstrom, 15 saves for the Cracken.
First regulation loss in 13 games.
Over time.
Crazy.
Well, they have one regulation loss in the last 13.
Nine, one and three points along the way, yeah.
And Ebs has been really good for them lately, as we noted.
They might be a playout team in the last.
They're going to need some scoring.
They should be making moves.
And I think Ron Francis is probably in the spot where he's ready to make some moves.
Okay.
I guess he's the president now, it's Jason Botterill, that's the GM.
That's right.
You know what I mean.
Okay, well, keep moving.
We should be able to win a trade.
We showed you the Norris news.
That's not great for the ribs.
You hope that's for them that you hope that's short term.
Okay.
Here we go.
I've not been cheating.
I've looked ahead.
Who is the Ullette player?
Doug Gilmore.
Very good.
Nice.
Flyers, Penguinos.
Some of these teams they play,
because I go back to Max Talbot.
It's kind of the first on the pause in my head there.
Sharks and Capitals.
That's tricky.
John Erskine.
No, he was Dallas.
Uh, next.
Okay, moving on.
Canucks, uh, blue jackets, uh, the defense one that was here.
Uh, good Branson.
Good Branson. Good work.
Next one's tough too because Seattle's lost.
Better go to the expansion draft.
It would be, yeah, like some.
It's geeky.
Dantanhine.
Yeah.
Is it the same geeky?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Uh, would a pig mini.
Do they not, uh, think you have a journeyman centerman.
Would it have been.
Tough.
Next.
Uh,
Flameshawks.
Smith.
Okay.
Steve.
What?
Big anniversary.
Steve Smith.
For Mark Smith.
No.
Dallas and the Uts.
Think of Arizona that'll help probably.
Dallas and the Uts.
I feel like there was a backup goal that played for both.
Mike Smith.
Good.
Yeah.
Smithy.
Lavender's oilers.
I'll read rivals back in the day.
He wouldn't be caught dead in the other.
It's Jersey back in the early 80s.
Ryan Smith, obviously.
There you go.
Ryan Smith.
Well done.
And it's the Marna Bowl tonight.
We will talk about that.
Do you want to revisit the top ones?
Jets Wild?
The Jets added a center for our first rounder like five, six years ago at the deadline.
Maybe it was St. Louis.
It wasn't.
I was thinking of the trade.
You think it's cheating, but it's my shortcut.
No, it's okay.
But when it's this, if we're struggling, then you've got to allow it.
I don't remember the wild like they brought in.
We're struggling here.
Need the comments, Jack.
comment section. Who played for the Wild and the Jets?
Danny Heatley.
Oh, Atlanta franchise. Well done.
Wow. Okay. And then we need San Jose
Washington.
Johan Carpetloon.
Oh, he played for the caps.
I appreciate the cut of your jib.
Zach Bogosian.
Did Bogosian?
Cogal for the sharks? Oh, sorry. I'm still on the one.
I'm not reading the wild.
You got to go shark.
Caps shark.
Sorry, I'm reading the comments.
Bogiogian is good.
Yeah, that's right.
You can't just read the comp.
Well, we're, we're in trouble.
I think he should read more.
Okay.
Yeah, really is it.
Is it a book club?
Uh, shoot, sharks, caps, guys.
Oh.
Oh.
No.
Potty ever playing?
Pody?
Alexin Polly.
I know.
So many allergies he had to go in the restaurants.
Joel Ward.
Oh, that's it for sure.
That's from the comments.
Excellent.
Well done comments.
We keep moving.
Thank you for that.
We were going to be stuck all day on that.
Medicine Hat Tigers got the WHL Championship rings yesterday.
Retro, look at these.
Beauty.
I didn't know they did that.
Nice.
Those are really nice.
What is a good orange stone?
Like, you know, the sapphires are blue, emeralds are green.
Is there a famous orange stone that you used?
Like what, Topaz?
Maybe.
Good stuff.
Wise Blat, Tigers.
Boom.
Nice rings.
I think they won again last night.
Don't you forget about me.
That's what they play.
Look at the final, hey.
4-1, 4-Zip, 4-Zip, 4-1 sweep.
That's pretty good.
Yeah, they should kick teams.
And they're good again this year, top 10 in the country.
Overtime, win in Edmonton last night for the first place.
Wow.
I think they're talking.
There's a 20 in a row.
Bashia 8 points in four games.
He's playing center for the Tigers since you've been sent down.
Look, you wanted them to be in the A and dominate.
That didn't happen.
But if you're not going to do that, playing center in dominating
in the dub good like to see that play play play play play the piss out of the kid
let's get to the NFL it's happened john harbaugh has landed hey we never oh sorry uh five
years 100 million hundred million that's a hundred jack hundred now famously i believe john
gruden signed a hundred million dollar coaching contract that was a 10 year deal now it's a
five year deal getting the coach to 100 20 sheets a year year that a boy that's
I don't know. I can't believe it's New York. You want that? It's a lot of pressure.
It's a hundred million. For a hundred million, I'll take the small. That's what John is.
And you imagine it all. And they got dirt and they got, obviously, Malik neighbors will be healthy next year. They got scataboo. It's a nice young core that they've got. Like for you as a bottle.
A bottle collector. Yeah. If somebody's like, here, this is a hundred million dollars. And we're going to give a list of job duties and the criteria.
Done. Not even reading it. How low you would go before it be like, okay, I don't think. I don't think.
I think I can do that.
Unless you got 95 to go to Miami,
yeah, you're taking the dough.
I saw the stat today.
No NFL coach has won a Super Bowl with two
different teams. It's a head coach.
Really?
Yeah.
I agree.
I did see it.
Who's the guy that won in New York?
Tom Coughlin?
He went to Jacksonville after.
But before that.
I don't know.
Hey.
AI that Jack.
That's an incredible piece of trivia if it's true.
Make sure it's true.
So that leaves some openings.
About a third of the league does not have a head coach.
One spot filled.
Steelers, Ravens, Browns, Titans, Falcons, Cardinals, Raiders,
dolphins.
It's like the whole draft lottery is looking for a coach.
Jack?
Jack.
Have you had time to digest,
to internalize,
to think it through?
Who are the Steelers going after?
Well, and here's the thing.
If you...
We talk with a wide range of markets on Bet365.
I bet you didn't know they had this.
I bet you didn't know they had this.
grandson of Don Chula.
So you can literally make money if you know who the next coach of the
I wanted to have young defensive coordinator.
They don't want you to chat with that.
Sheel Hayes.
Yeah.
He was,
he's the Rams passing game guy,
which obviously McVatry.
He can bring him to.
But Daniel?
No,
I don't want McDaniel.
You want a first time.
First timer.
Chris Chula.
I said this the other day.
Like Kevin Stefansky could be a great coach.
We'd never know.
He spent five years in Cleveland.
at 87 quarterbacks.
That is true.
Like, and maybe he's awful.
What, though?
If Chris Shula goes there, he's a, what, defensive guy?
Yep.
Bring in your staff.
Get some guys.
Jesse Minter is the Chargers de-coordinator.
Robert Salah was just in the Jets and went back to San Francisco where he was a
decontator before.
He's still alive playing this weekend against Seattle.
It's weird, but I could, I see Brian Flores on, in the,
Pittsburgh.
Oh, Jack.
Yeah, Flores spent some time in Pittsburgh two years ago.
Fish?
No, after he was head coach in Miami.
You're on to.
I truly believe it'll be a first time head coach.
I think it's going to be Chris.
They had the video circulating.
The big thank you to Mike Tomlin on the Steelers socials last few days.
He was a young pup and he left 20 years later and those are coachineers.
if they can be half as good as their last tire, they'll be fine.
But it feels like it's turning over of an era here,
turn page for the Steelers.
Here are your odds. They haven't moved a bunch.
Another half. Extra half point. Now, remember, they started his favorites,
but it didn't last long. As soon as they posted odds,
it immediately swung to Denver. That was Sunday or Monday,
and it's been Denver minus one until today, Denver minus one and a half.
Seattle's still laying seven and a half at home. That is your evening game on Saturday.
The morning game on Sunday,
It's favored by three and the bears are still getting three and a half against the Rams.
That is your Sunday afternoon game.
Dean. We'll focus on the Saturday games because we got a couple.
Yeah, this is the couple doozies.
Alan against Nick's.
What time this team is? What do you think the?
Hey, Bo, cheer up.
Yeah.
He kind of looks like that fitness instructor.
I don't know if I could trust him with my wife.
Yes.
Today we're going to do Pilates.
Just back up.
Stance off for ass.
Next.
The other Saturday game,
it's a NFC grudge match.
These two teams, I believe, met in week 18.
Seattle was all over them.
If the Niners had won that game,
they would have had home field for the entirety of the playoffs
because the Super Bowl is next to the electrical power plant in Sanctuary.
And it does not look good for the Niners on the injury front,
but it's been that way all year.
Seattle's Wall Rested, got a great D.
Nothing new.
What's the problem?
Well, what time do you think that both games?
Oh, no.
Oh, dear.
So you couldn't go to Denver because of your children and your father of the year.
Full shot on, Rep.
This is now another swing in the, it's another level up.
You know what you are right now?
Disheveled.
You're flummoxed.
You know, just when you think you got life figured out, two games at the same.
on.
Yeah.
God damn it.
That's a good one.
That's a good one.
I can't control everything in life, Ryan.
Back to you.
Chicago's got a big game there hosting on Sunday,
Dino and your boy, the Ice Man.
Is that going to stick?
It's a little big.
You know that?
Made ice.
Yeah.
Is that a nickname they're working on,
or is that just first I've heard of it?
Very.
Okay.
So maybe I feel like you just made that up.
Might have.
Well, he's pretty clutch when it matters.
That would be Iceman.
Is that, are we getting winter weather?
Yeah, that's real.
We're getting winter weather in Chicago this weekend?
Dude, you got to be looking at the weather forecasts.
Do you have not been looking at the weather.
I have not been looking at that.
I'm not planning on going.
Um, you should go.
So I haven't really.
Come on now.
I'm looking at the forecast.
Chicago, Illinois.
Minus seven rate now in Celsius.
That is chilly.
And on the weekend, we are looking at minus seven still.
the high
oh baby
had some winter football
soldier come on in Rams
Southern California
softies dean
that's softies dude
staff daddy my hands are cold
I'm reserving all comments
all right don't change saying
that's fine I see you working
Bill's fans are always charged up
we're giving you lots of Bill's Mafia
to get you all pumped up throughout the playoffs
this guy's busted this is not good
he's at his nieces
baptism
after they're good pictures
I think it's fine
Yeah
He doesn't seem too worried
He's like look
It's on mute
What are you're right
It's after
They're doing
Oh there are pictures
That's fine
Yeah
It doesn't look
Like he'd just turn it on either though
I was gonna say
We don't know that that's
Could have been running for a while
Yeah
Bill's Mafia
Are you gonna have that on the bench
I don't know what to do
What's the right approach
Are you coaching this team or no
I need the professional
of our listeners of my esteemed colleagues.
Start times.
215 hockey, 230 football, I believe.
Boy, how long are the ice times?
Hour and a half?
Oh, there.
R15?
Well, can you do that?
Can you do what buddy is doing there?
Set up along the glass?
Get the phone.
I don't find enjoyment in that.
Yeah, then you don't really watch either game.
Yeah, now.
Kind of watch both.
How were they?
I don't really know.
I was watching the other game too.
You scored, what?
Oh, no.
Right, you can't miss the Bill's game.
It says, son, you don't have kids.
That's a minor hockey, gold medal matchup.
Are you?
You can't even start your blue bin.
What do you mean?
You're telling us I do with kids.
Am I capable of taping this,
going radio silent and getting home?
No.
Impossible.
The only way you do that is you have to stand away from the stands,
behind one of the nets,
and immediately head for the exits,
and a shoveler does drug home.
Kid has to get his own ride home.
Yeah.
That's the only way you're doing this.
Get the hoodie over the head,
look angry.
I don't take no for an answer.
Sunlasses and doors.
Go full.
boomer. I was going to say you'll have to
how you'd have to conduct yourself
but it's probably not a lot different than otherwise.
If somebody comes up to talk to you, you'd just be like, just to stay
with it. Don't. Don't talk to. Wow, my concern
now is that I've thrown it out there that
this is what I might try to accomplish and I'm going to
have a lot of jerks.
Yeah, people will texting and I'll
just glance. You'll be ready for that
Niners Seattle game.
That'd be a hell of a game, right?
Looks nice and seen. Then I'll have the whole team over. We'll get
pissed and watch it. Can you do live barn on
the I had home and double screen it.
The game's there.
You wouldn't do that.
You wouldn't do that, even if your Bears were playing.
I think your best bet is to try and go silent,
try and go dark.
Unless the kid's team's getting shit kicked and I can just leave it.
That's right, yeah.
10 degrees in sunny in Seattle, cold and shit.
4.0 after one.
Yeah, good try, guys.
You know what?
I'm bad luck.
I got to get out of here.
My fault.
Sorry, guys.
finally it's a birthday today i believe today so let's uh thanks right say happy birthday and watch a little
this is rudy on duty this is rudy on duty from how about it coach who's between he's a fight tonight

We've been fishing and sweat.
We got peace in the crease, and we're feeling all right.
Telly Rudy's on duty tonight.
But all right.
The best part of this baby is that his birthday was two days.
Thank you.
Yep.
We have to ask us.
We'll be screaming as he twits and whirles and bend.
Is this real?
We must be dreaming.
Have you checked our goals again?
He was just awesome.
Sigger.
Rudy and Elton.
Oh, man.
Anna.
Helmets.
Brent Ash to go out of the net.
That's a big man.
Crash and the crease.
These guys are awesome.
Awesome.
This is what we're going as Halloween next year.
Rudy on duty.
Or maybe this is what the team needs from us.
Maybe this is how we kind of make up for the bagel shirts.
I'll tell you so.
Head to the parking lot, start doing some lip sync.
Let's do a domo the poho.
Hey, listen.
I told Jack, it's, Jack's upset.
that his Steelers lost, but he needs to look at a mirror.
I told him after we had the, who did this sort of thing?
You played it.
The Packers.
The Packers guy did the song.
I suggest, Gingerbeard.
You need to do a song.
No, because the song is the ultimate jinx.
Yeah, the Packers lost.
Oh, how'd it go?
How'd it go?
They got shit on.
How did the Steelers do?
Not good.
There he go.
But did the Texans have a song?
I could have had it in the holster, at least ready to pull out if needed,
played it at half time.
Who you want to be, Dean?
I'm not sure.
A belated happy birthday to Kelly Rudy.
Belated happy birthday.
Better late than never.
That's right.
And the video was too good not to show.
That is gorgeous.
Some shipping issues.
The gift arrives a little late.
Yeah, it's still good.
HBD.
Beauty.
That's your pit report on this Thursday, January 15th, halfway through the miserable month of January.
good fun,
Calgary,
but they're still winter looming.
Check out the pre-owned vehicle

or head up to the Northwest Auto Mall.
It's your dealership for life.
Very nice.
Very nice.
Rudy on duty.
Like to get stuck in the old,
uh,
Jack was dead when that song came out.
Yeah,
you were dead.
Very dead.
We've got,
uh,
six months.
minutes until red has to go.
Yeah, let's go.
I don't believe he has to get
text. That's 365,
official gaming partner of the program.
We love them.
The app is the best.
We talked about it all.
It's all right there for you.
Steelers head coaching futures.
Yeah.
Anything.
I love it.
It's crazy.
Bet 365.
It's never ordinary at Bet365.
Download the app.
Get in the game.
Must be 19 or older.
Bet 365.
Best app.
best in the business.
Best, best, best.
It's the Marner Bowl tonight, boys.
Mitchie back in Toronto, or excuse me, hosting Toronto.
They're on there, doing their western swing.
They'd just be Colorado, lost to Utah, a second half,
back to back.
Toronto swings through Vegas.
Marner with a point, two shots, even money.
And Mark Stone has quietly put together an incredibly efficient season.
While he has missed time when he's healthy, he's putting up points.
Nice heater.
I think he's about 85% of the games he's played.
He's getting points.
Three shots in one point plus two, 10.
Stone last night had the overtime winner,
has a nine game point streak, 14 points in the nine game.
I would go hard on the Leafs.
Really?
Okay, but these can still hit.
That's fine.
Yeah, these can.
Absolutely.
Do you want to take a look to the least?
What's the, because they're coming?
What's the rush?
I just think they're playing well.
I think this is a big game for Marner,
not the Knights, and the Knights played last night.
Knights did play.
They didn't eat.
Overtime wins.
They'll be a little fatigé.
Leaves are plus 115.
Vegas Golden Knights minus 135.
You're over under set at six.
There you go.
That, some bets.
But again, huge, huge range of markets.
You could literally bet on the Cleveland Brown's next head coach.
This one will get it right.
Yeah, this time they're, yeah.
Yeah.
This is a good, to get the quarterback and the coach you're going to.
Mike Tomlin.
So interestingly, because people are saying,
Oh, you know, Harbao got fired.
The Steelers did not fire Mike Tomlin.
He has one year left.
If anyone wants to hire Mike Tomlin,
they have to trade for his rights.
So the clearest path for Mike Tomlin is to go to TV for a year,
keep getting paid.
I think he's done coaching.
Might be.
Cower was when he left,
but he was also older than Tomlin is now, if I'm correct.
Will Tomlin be good on TV?
I think we don't know until he gets there.
On a panel, he's great.
I don't think he's an analyst, in-game kind of thing.
He's an opinionated, like, react to things.
I think on a panel, he'd be really good.
What?
Because you see Cower and Rex Ryan, a bunch of others of the former coaches on desks, they're really good.
Yeah.
Get Terry Bradshaw out of there.
Oh, Terry.
I'm fine with that.
Back it up, Terry.
Yeah.
Put Tom on it now.
Yeah.
Terry.
Did you have something you wanted to say?
No.
You sure?
Yeah.
Got a lot, Rhett.
Youth centers of Calgary.

Maddie Hugh, five bucks.
If Rasmus was a steak, what cut would he be?
He's got some gristle to him.
He's a flank.
Yeah.
Is that disrespectful or is it high enough quality?
It's tough because, yeah, if you think.
Because he's got some gristle, but he's also a very nice kind of meat.
He could be in New York.
I think he could be in New York.
New York strip.
Good.
Good question, Mattie.
five bucks for the kids.
Handsome Dan.
Handsome Dan.
Yes.
Maloney should post a selfie of he and Rhett wearing re-biggle shirts.
You can be the butt of the joke or in on it,
but the joke was born and he said the word.
So may as well roll with it for fun PR.
Thank you, handsome Dan.
Always the voice of reason.
Yes.
Some bad takes with the country music,
but actually the voice of music.

It'll be my first time in Calgary
What are y'all's recommendations for food bars
Etcetera
I'll handle the poster
I can handle the pre
Red Mile
We're eating
It's all sir.
Red mile.
Is it going to be rolling?
All in everything you need.
There's restaurants,
there's bars.
There's a tradition to it.
If you're flames,
phoenix.
And you just walk across 17th now.
They figured out that sea train crossing.
Easy way to get into the door from 17th now.
Lots of restaurants on 17th.
You got to go to Dutton's post game.
Have to.
Don't be slack and get out of your seat.
Hustle now.
It'll line up sometimes.
I've never gone to Dutton's spot.
Oh, it's just the best.
He may not want to leave his seat.
He says his first game.
I'm saying once it's
done, don't be lingering.
Post. I see.
Final horn, get moving. You'll be fine.
Because you, I mean, you're not
beyond leaving with, you know, 5, 8,
10, 20, 30. 4-0
Chicago, it's time to go, yeah.
40 minutes left in the game.
All right.
There we go.
Yeah. And then if you like to play cards,
you could always have a couple shoes
at the Nino nearby.
Lots of options.
You know, Phil. Loss. Did it as a cowboy.
You should stop in the Cowboys.
It's a historical.
Landmark.
Yeah.
like the old one too.
Old one's gone, yeah.
$10.
Ownership has coasted.
Soul of a dead machine, 10 bucks.
Coasted on loyal fans and sponsors to stay profitable.
Rather than accept a few lean years, they believe a quick re-biggle will pacify us.
Oh, and Jack deserves a one-cent raise.
No.
All right.
I think it starts with the name.
I feel like you know that it's not half full that glass.
Look at the episode.
Soul of a dead machine.
It's Harvey.
He's got Harve.
That's in a calendar post from Harv there.
Dead machine.
All right.
$10.
That's very generous.
Willie Holden.
9.
I did it once already.
Hubey needs size on his line and a good PP to be good.
Look at Hubie's PP numbers and the team PP numbers last season.
Hubey can succeed there.
A good P.P.
with Perek quarterbacking.
I would like to see Perak on top powerfully in it, you know, maybe.
At all.
This argument to vote top players.
If that, if you're.
supposed to be the top player,
then you're the driving force that makes everyone else.
I agree with that,
but I think the ship has sailed on Hubbard or top player.
That's the thing.
To me it comes down to,
you know,
this guy,
what we need to do is put him on
when there's fewer players of the opposite team on the ice.
That's when he's at his best
is when there's less opposition on the ice to play against.
Okay.
I believe you.
Hope it works.
Because when there's the same number,
it's not as good.
That's not his position of strength.
But when you look at his skill set,
that could be a very, very deadly
power play piece.
It was when he was in Florida.
But yeah, like,
you've got a couple of ridgills today.
I have.
Thinking about this poker turn.
I'm fine with that.
Put Perak out there,
give her.
I think what it is is when you,
even when you know you're talking shit,
it's like,
I think Huberdoll could be a really good player.
Like your hard drive starts to spark.
You find the tape of me saying that.
Yikes.
Well, like, that's kind of...
Stop for he was just doing.
No, I had said the ship sailed
to him being a top player.
But then you went into
explain about...
He's got a good skill set for the power blade,
but the last part playing way, yeah.
That is so perfect.
It's unbelievable.
He's a talented player, but
it's not happening.
He's not a top player anymore.
But he's tell.
It should work better than it has,
but you're also not using your best guys there.
That's not.
So good.
You're not.
Why is Zain Perak not got a ton of power player?
Brady's got a brain bleed or something.
Did you fall?
It's very icy.
I am so concussed.
That's why we didn't do tankathon.
Hit us of a zinger.
Yeah, we're concussed.
Come on.
All right.
Let it though.
Oh, back in.
Hubey and Weger,
skating and edgework has been bad this season.
It shows they're both chasing the game
and struggling with pace of play.
Hubey especially needs a figure skating code.
What fuck are you talking?
the 2026 summer.
Bill, I love.
Billy's a big fan.
You can tell you.
I know, but edge work?
So you're qualified to, to,
no, he's trying to, he's trying to find
a solution. Diagnosing.
He's like, let's get Hughby on the power play,
get some size of his wing, get these guys
some skating lessons.
Bill, no.
These are 32-year-old men.
How many 32-year-olds find a next gear on their
skating? We'll start the list with.
Their edge work, is there edge work?
And I don't know that you're qualified to
To decipher their edge work.
No, he might be making a point on pace of play.
Okay.
Fair.
But no, I don't know if figure skating coach is going to unlock 115.
This is where we preface it.
We'll show you comment on the show and we'll donate on the end.
We may talk to your budget.
It's this part of it, Billy.
We appreciate you being part of the show.
Thanks for the kids, Bill.
It's a great donation for the kids.
Paul Hauser, 744.
Felt!
Humer Lightenup.
I'll be wearing my.
re-biggle shirt when the flames come to Dallas in April.
744 is a very interesting way.
We get the ball handling. What's the
Marth, why 744? Is it a
Warner 44? Maybe.
Yeah, it's, it's an interesting
total. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That'll be a hit in
Dallas. Dallas and Dallas in Dallas. Dallas and I saw
Are they still traveling the drive?
No, but I was just to, he was like, unbelievable.
Oh, yeah.
We all know and we all hear the bell's going to choose to go to a game.
That's got to be a bucket list.
You should really consider head into Montreal.
And the beauty of going to Montreal, it's Montreal.
It doesn't matter what game.
Yeah, when you leave the rank, Montreal's outside.
Yeah.
And it could be a Tuesday against Columbus.
It's still a race.
It feels like Stanley Cup final.
It's like, is this round two?
No, it's game 37.
Yeah.
Oh.
Which is actually the second of a back-to-back,
and this is the last place team in the West.
It's wound tight.
I thought it was 0-4 in Calgary.
January 8th.
Yeah.
How do you feel about a nation vacation in Montreal?
Sure.
Like, no other portions.
I think it'd be all.
I've never been to an NHL game there.
I would love to.
Yeah.
Because I think the big three right now,
in terms of just the zaniness and atmosphere,
it's the newer ones.
Like, Nashville is like unlike anything else.
Vegas is the same.
It's kind of like the nightclub.
But Montreal is the religious experience.
It has to be done.
Jack is still good at Parley Vu franais.
Right.
You'd be right of all.
That would be a great idea.
Tell foot daddy to be ready.
Oh, come on.
Foot daddy.
He's got the American dollar.
He'll be living in a king there.
Thank you, Paul.
Wear it with pride, I guess, would be the answer.
Six and a na-na-na-a-no-boomer.
I bought myself a stand mixer over the holidays
and tried your bun recipe to test it out
The buns were amazing.
We need a charity cookbook.
Nice.
I'll put the bean salad.
Good for you there, Firefox.
I happy that it worked out for you.
I felt bad when I saw the Warner photos.
Did you see the photos of people?
I saw those and I'm like, something's gone on.
You know what it is?
It looked like the photos that Keller send them to Pagas.
It's all brown and just.
I'm like, the color's not right.
The consistency's not right.
What has happened here?
How did Red Bungle this?
Oh, yeah.
Or did Dean sabotage him with a bad recipe?
I felt, I legit.
Oh, no.
I was going to call like, what, what you do?
I wanted to come over and help.
I knew it was wrong.
What happened?
It didn't use the right flour.
You can't.
That's the thing about those is once you're putting that much butter and stuff in it,
it's not going to be a healthy deal.
You're not going to have to embrace the fact that it's white buns.
And it's, uh, they're chewy and delicious.
They warm our hearts.
Good job, Firefox.
Enjoy that stand mixer.
Shreve on the Bobby.
Make it 10 super chats.
Where's my kangaroo video?
Two days ago.
Thank you, shrimp in the Barbie.
Garbage.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Shrimp on the Barbie.
Thank you, thank you.
All right, there it is.
That's the, uh,
don't forget the tankathon.
That's the Thursday edition of the super chat.
And time for the tankathon.
What is the tagathon?
Well, it's a, uh, a website that we had just kind of,
it's a scientific, uh, we just believe knows what it's doing.
It's kind of like this podcast.
I think they know what they're talking about.
Yeah, I wouldn't do that far.
Mathematical probabilities and science and, uh, the, the, uh, the, the environment.
The atmosphere pressure all goes into this.
This is yesterday's spin first.
With a click of the button, it goes through all the permutations and tells you who is going to win the draft lottery and who will pick first overall.
Now, the beauty of us missing yesterday is these standings are the same odds as yesterday.
So the first spin will be yesterday's.
Fair enough.
The second one will be today's because none of the numbers are probably.
So for the 14th of January, we give it a spin.
And congratulations to the Vancouver Congress.
Rogers bumped up there.
Rangers move to number two as the big winners.
Flames in fourth.
That ties for our best result yet.
Still haven't got a top three, but we got to spend for today now.
All right.
Let's, there it is, reset.
Calgary sitting third.
Come on.
Can they stay or improve something for the 15th of January,
spin it and.
They stayed three.
Okay.
They stayed three.
That's a very off stumbary, McEntaghton.
Nobody moved.
So who.
Jets stayed at two.
So the Vancouver and Winnipeg,
they get the check marks.
They would have won the two.
do they stay where they are.
Cool.
All right.
I can live with that.
I do think the big three is a thing.
Yep.
Stenberg, Verhof, or McKenna.
Big, going third.
All the pressure off of Conroy.
100% and the player, to be fair.
I don't really like that.
I mean, let's pick first.
I'm with you picking first.
I'm saying I'm a glass half full guy.
Yeah, you are.
And no pressure on Conroy or management on who they're picking.
whoever's left.
I'm going to start calling the question, this website.
I don't know if these guys, no, gosh.
We've got a bunch of fives, a couple fours, and money, three.
It's getting better.
Yeah.
Turning the right way.
Just keep the jets going.
They won three in a row.
Keep winning jets.
I'm late paying my taxes.
I don't want to.
We'll do it tomorrow.
Tonight's game, got to have a big impact on.
Oh, come on, guys.
Eyes on the prize.
Guys, think of the tankathon.
Think of it.
Think of us.
Think of us.
See the sadness that.
we're heading right now? You don't want that.
We care about you.
Buy a shirt. Jack,
how is the show today?
Great show. Well done, boys. Get your rebagle shirts.
Get them all the hot. Get them all the hot.
Hot off the press.
Drager tomorrow.
Flames road trip comes to an egg. We'll have our reaction.
We're going to know where they are.
We're going to know.
clarity. Is that so we can
our definitive statement and conclusions
tomorrow? I will revisit the Anderson
trade and our trade.
grades will be it wow I've never stood by anything I'm excited for that that sounds like a
great show yeah sure it will be but I can't wait for us be yeah see you buddies
