Barn Burner: Boomer & Pinder with Rhett Warrener - Rhett & Pinder LOSE IT Over Connor Zary’s Future With The Calgary Flames 😂 | BB Clips
Episode Date: October 7, 2026Boomer, Pinder and Rhett debate whether Connor Zary will ever play another game for the Calgary Flames after clearing waivers. Rhett believes the relationship has reached the point of no return — th...e bridges have been burned and there’s essentially no chance Zary finds his way back into Calgary’s lineup. Pinder isn’t ready to go that far and argues there’s still a scenario where Zary works his way back and gets another opportunity with the Flames. Naturally, a normal hockey debate turns into a classic Barn Burner argument, with Rhett getting increasingly pissed at Pinder as the two go back and forth over whether this relationship can actually be repaired. And after all the yelling? Rhett bought Pinder a taco to apologize. 🌮 Video Link: https://youtu.be/MlXfzD6zc54?si=Qbm1MwdfHJZzwQjb#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #calgaryflames Hosted on Acast.

Do you think that guy has any idea that three games into the next season he's going to be in the American League?
God, no.
I don't even think yesterday at 1159.
He thought he was going to the World of the League.
No, I think it would have sunk in real fast when Super agents, and I'm being jockey.
I don't know those agents.
It doesn't matter when his agents like, dude.
Yeah.
So have you booked a flight yet where Florida?
Where am I going?
L.A.
Where are we?
Mr. Agent, man.
Do I need Sunblock?
Where am I?
Contender?
You put one of those carts, actually.
Just like a cart.
It's wrong with this damn thing.
Yeah.
There's a shopping cart down the hall.
Had down the hallway.
It would be a door that says wranglers.
Your PM just got sliced a third.
Enjoy the bus rides, son.
I have a feeling that maybe the least surprised might be Craig Conroy.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I he's got the canvas league right available and you could choose to believe me or not I suppose
but I was not trying to hoodwink that's right this wasn't a ploy to send you off the set I was not
trying to hoodwink you when I said uh there's not much of a market for you son so maybe as bad as I
feel now but the thing is he's on a one-way deal he's going to get his yep he's on a second deal
to one way there's no way hs are a lot of times
times you go to the American League, you take that, like, like
what you were saying, for Stevedge.
It's like, geez, that's going to sting.
It's the pride that's good.
Oh, yeah, it's not the, not the pocket.
Yeah. Michael K.
The agent, I know you're. We don't.
Need to name names.
The Yankees play by play guy. I know it was the
ex-ary talented guy. See ya.
See ya. Indeed.
See that next year. Yeah.
See ya.
It is funny that it's being spoken of.
It was like, geez, as Conner's every played his last
game. What a sad end of the story.
When he goes to the Wranglers, you realize this is just a chapter.
They're not done with each other.
Right?
Like his job now is to dominate that level, work on the small details they've asked
them to, and he might be a good flame by Christmas.
No?
You said it yesterday or the day before.
Please.
What if the realm of reality?
What if he goes down there and is just okay?
Yeah, then he's in PTO land in two years.
Right?
Yep.
It's 27.
Because I, if I had to choose, I would probably agree with you.
I thought, you'll see him again.
He's going to come back up.
But I don't know how much.
You think he's not coming back up?
What the hell are you two talking about me?
You don't think he's coming back up?
No.
Okay.
I think he burned his own bridge.
The coach spoke complimentary about attitude and character.
But again, what are they going to say?
I don't know.
That doesn't mean there's drama there.
Let's go for a drink.
Oh my God.
I don't know where I'm at.
So you think zero games play for the flight?
planes moving forward. I don't think why
I'm just asking. No. Zero games
play. Yes, zero.
Okay. But I'm also
have an opinion and then you'll
backtrack of what you say. But
it's, why would they need them?
Because they're going to trade
some wingers for the end of the year.
Well, why the fuck don't they do it now
and then let him play? And why
did he burn his bridge and piss everybody off
and talk shit? Because he's not figured
out the details that the coaching staff asked him to.
So that's what he's going to go work on.
You know what?
You're pulling on your coach hat.
Congratulations.
I love your positive spin on things.
It's a bunch of bullshit.
He doesn't want to be.
There's not notes for him to work on from the coaching staff when he goes down?
So what?
He already called, they called his bluff.
They're like, dude, quit whining.
Do what you're told.
I'm not going to do it.
I'm told.
I'm going to turn pucks over.
So my question would be when the entire league says thanks, but no thanks
and you're playing in the American League.
Are you now more open to make those changes?
that's, I'm suggesting he would be, but we'll see.
He could have his pouty pants on too.
He very much, I think yesterday would be tough.
It's very nice of you to have the most positive of this is how it's going to work.
He'll be back by crew.
Oh, we should make a bet.
Zero games.
I'll take the over.
If you're that strong about it.
I just think that he's burned his bridges.
He may have.
He may have.
And maybe what happens is he plays well in the A and that allows him.
I don't know if I can handle his, my fence.
I'm going to walk the fine fence line.
here.
Great.
He might not work out, but he could work out, or might not, but he might
could, maybe more this.
Yeah, but if he does that or that, but he might not do that.
Okay, then make the back, Mr.
Zero games.
Make the bat.
100 bucks.
Okay, big fucking talker.
Here's a hundred dollars.
Like, you're just walking the fucking fence line again and again and again.
Well, we need, uh, Hansick's a great player, but he can't be too good because
maybe we, what about it?
What are the odds that Zeres is done because he was drafted in a certain
slotting and that's what he has.
has to be because he was slaughtered there.
Like you have all these stupid fucking breakdowns,
but you just won't fucking say what I think it's telling you exactly what I think
the flames are talking about right now,
which is how do we rehab this asset?
And you might be right.
He could go play well and maybe that allows them to trade him.
He's cleared waivers already.
But I think we'll see him in flame silks again.
And maybe I'm way wrong and you're right.
I'm an ab.
I don't think that's a crazy thing.
Show something so we can move your ass.
Potentially.
Yeah.
Well, potentially.
No, I mean, like, if he looks good, there's two options.
You trade him where you call him up, right?
Sure.
I don't think that's a crazy take, man.
Have it on Ryan today.
I'm going to snap.
I don't want to.
Okay, here, let's reset it.
I take it all back.
Conner's Erie's cooked.
He'll never play again for the flames.
It's 100% to zero.
And anyone that says otherwise, I'm going to yell at.
At least that's an opinion.
You're just telling everyone what they already fucking know.
Hey, it could be good or it could be bad or he might not be good, but he could be bad.
He could score or not score.
I wasn't saying
let's stamp and cement our predictions
for how it's going to go in the
I'm just saying like they're in the business
of rehabbing Conners there at the HL level now.
That's their business.
That's what they have to do
of your asset management.
Are you not?
That's business.
Yeah, I don't know.
Like, what do you think?
Does he play again for the flames dean?
I hadn't really thought about it.
And that's why I'm bringing it up.
It's an interesting thing to think about potentially.
I hadn't really.
Without knowing how badly
the bridges are burnt.
Like, to your point,
they put him on waivers after game three.
They benched him after opening night.
Yeah, that's how we got here.
Those would be things you do when you are done.
Agreed.
With the player. Yeah.
If he has cleared, the only, I guess the only thing is,
he's got what, two years left on his deal,
he's still going to be in your ecosystem.
And you're still going to want to get that money off if you can,
which means you've got to turn him back into a player.
People think he's worth the thing.
three point whatever or work on a tree
or eat some, yeah. Or you do a
problem for problem. And an
offman deal. You give us
your, your guy,
we give you this guy. It's happened before.
I don't know. I hadn't, honestly,
I hadn't really thought
about where it should he take too.
Put your stamp on it.
Yeah.
Fish on the fence, Dean, pick a side.
I mean, we don't know how it's going to go.
We're just talking about what could happen.
You think he's cooked as a Flynn. That's a
opinion to have. I'm not going to yell at you about it.
I wish you would. But if I'm, can I say he might play for the flames again? Or is that stupid?
I think it's stupid. I got that point. Yeah. But that's what they want to happen is for him to go be so good. It's undeniable. And the last time he was in the A, which was years ago, he was very good. And they had to call him up because it was like, he's ready to go to a new level. And he's playing a lot of NHL hockey since then. Like, I'm not going to be surprised if he's a point per game player there and looks good.
How many points per play?
I'm not alone now.
This is so tired of pain.
Well, no, it's honestly.
It's literally the conversation about Zari right now.
No.
Have it.
Have it.
Okay.
Like, that's what I would expect he,
you'd want him to be your best forward in the HL.
Well, he better be.
Yeah.
He better be.
Like I said, what if he,
what if he's not?
Yeah.
Then you've got a,
what if he is?
What if he is?
$3.75 million
American leaguer who's not
then he's eating up
ice time down there.
You don't need him in the American league.
Right?
Well, he'd be very helpful in the American league
given the wins and losses, but not,
he's taking ice away from kids you want to develop.
If you want to go look at the fourth line winger at the HLO,
I don't know that you're too worried with that guy's ice.
I just mean when he is added,
you're dumping your worst forward.
It's not someone that matters.
It's an HL.
So he's in the road in the NHL but wouldn't be in the American
League?
Correct.
Just food.
I felt bad for yelling at Pinders, so I bought him a talk.
Oh, nice.
Oh, come on.
I was trying to have to do that.
You brought the energy.
Yeah, you brought the energy.
Listen, if I had a tough time with you yell to me,
it wouldn't be the 15 years we've worked together now.
See, here's the thing.
Or 13.
Like, maybe.
Maybe.
So maybe was it a bit, you know, aggressive out today?
perhaps
there's a lot of days where he talks some stupid
shit and I just let aggressive too
it all balances oh
well taco time sounds like they're in answer
I don't know that I've had this before I think this is
the dill pickle one jack I thought they had the deal
pill pill
dill
this one here for you I know that you think you're healthy
and bet you don't eat before you go to the gym
and that's some way that'll
butt little protein and carbs for the gym jack
get the blood sugars in a good spot
it's important to eat it
spots still.
Still warm.
Sorry, Jack.
Talk, it's a lot in order.
