Starting point is 00:00:14 You're very much pride. You don't have to come after. What if hell. Nothing slows you down, dude. It's true. Yep. Nothing going to slow you down. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:00:26 You got to keep a moving. I've been singing a lot lately, eh? Notice that on the show? That's Wild, Billy Wilder. What was his name? Who did break my stride? I feel like some crappy boy band, girl band thing. You go back to the 80s and there's some crap music,
Starting point is 00:00:43 but some, Some of the things they allowed them to sing about. Matthew Wilder. There we go. What sort of things, right? I don't want to bring it up. It's one of those. Sexual intercourse or hard drugs.
Starting point is 00:00:54 I want to call it woke, but just things where you're like, you shouldn't be saying that. Are you offended? I don't get offended about anything because I'm an idiot. Someone sent me a, it was a TV commercial from what I'm going to say is the early to mid-80s. And it was for a mattress store. And I, now again, we're on the internet. Pretty much anything goes here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:22 I don't, I'm not going to run it. You're not going to run it? It's too much. Really? Let me just say this that it's, it's one of those things like, hey, I'm Bill from Bill's mattress warehouse. Yeah. And you know, everybody loves me.
Starting point is 00:01:36 I'm Bill. I love everybody. I love all people. And everybody is welcome here. And then he decides to go through different. Oh, no. Yeah. So that's, there's costumes and accents and, uh, ooh, dig up.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Ooh, dude. Bella. I know what you're saying. That's a soft of the mattress. It's not subtle. It's a lot. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:59 Yeah. So we can have an Ozzy guy in his in his man cave ripping off like 50 C bombs and MFing the Oilers. But that mattress commercial that was on TV in the 80s can't do it. So I don't have the stomach for it. Now, we could, we could run it. I just feel like the climate that we're in in today's society. You got to be careful, Dean.
Starting point is 00:02:21 I'd just rather not. If you feel more comfortable with Ozzy Brad than this, I suggest we don't play. What do we talk about all the time? What do we talk about? We talk about risk and reward. Reward. You and your voice. Risk.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Reward. I got a risky and a root. Arms is so long. God, it's crazy. So long. Yeah. I'm going to say there's little reward. the odd chuckle and then
Starting point is 00:02:44 yeah it would be all downhill and it would be awkward chuckles oh oh okay oh dear I would have said that no I wouldn't yeah geez I'm not sure how many box springs I actually had to give the shovelers shit oh there's that word again sorry folks uh but some of the things
Starting point is 00:03:00 that she was sending to my child no remember you say shirt nudie pants maybe you should go shirt I can say shirt I can say shirt hey because you're you're a lot of and shirt was great on the show you had dogs shirt, horse shit, shirt. Lots of shirts, right? Yeah. Piece of shirt. Yeah. You know, it's get some fun of those.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Bull shirt, dog shirt, horse shirt. We should still do those. Piece of shirt. I think we stay shirt. All right. Jackie, you can take the explicit lyrics off the channel. We're good. No swearing. It's a family show. Shirts and giggles. Before we get into the meat of the show, I'm going to start today with the auction that is online at nationgear. I'm going to buy this bastard you probably should.
Starting point is 00:03:43 I'm going to if certainly doesn't step up their cheapness. That's right. So the auction is in support of our top shelf
Starting point is 00:03:52 Elf Christmas campaign. I understand it's a little bit early, but I can't, we can't be putting up an auction in December for a game that's being played
Starting point is 00:04:00 on November 1st. Wouldn't work, Dean. And I'm not going to tell John Winwick, hey, you know what? You take your 25 tickets and food vouchers.
Starting point is 00:04:09 you take them and we don't want them. We don't want your 25 mults. Not going to do it. ATB financial, John Winwick, have donated to our cause, the top shelf elf, a great game day experience.
Starting point is 00:04:21 25 press level tickets to Calgary versus New Jersey. Tickets that, idiot Jack went and... Idiot Jack. Anyway, overpaid for it. 25 tickets,
Starting point is 00:04:34 plus each ticket comes with a food and drink voucher. Popcorn, hot dog, drink, soft serve malt. A malt? The auction will end tomorrow. We're going to give you a week and change or whatever it's going to be.
Starting point is 00:04:49 You've got 29 hours left. Get things ready. I'm reading right now. 29 hours from now. And right now it's a steal of a deal. What's the top of it? Like 3.50. 3.50?
Starting point is 00:04:57 Come on. Let's get her going, guys. 25 tickets. If I did. 25 maltz. It's barely $10 a ticket. I don't know. It's pretty early for that.
Starting point is 00:05:10 It's just, oh, it's just, I'm still working on PVO. $11 a ticket. Okay. Regardless. Cheapest chips. Nationgear.ca. We can tell you what you can't do. You can't buy a bowl or a bucket of popcorn at the dome for, no, you're not.
Starting point is 00:05:25 10 bucks. You're not doing it. Maybe you can. Now, think if you, yeah, you wouldn't have, I mean, when you're not with a malt. I mean, underwear and socks these days, what are the $100 a pair? You've never bought yourself underwear a sock, have you. Don't wear. You're going to go with a whole bunch of people.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Now, maybe it's co-workers, maybe it's kids, sports teams, whatever group. Maybe it's your work pals. Maybe. Think of 25 of you guys sitting up there with your ice creams and your popcorns and whoop, whoop, whoop, you stink, Markstrom. Hey, Dale and a guy. I need another malt. You're terrible. You traitor.
Starting point is 00:06:04 They traded me. Still, don't like it. Run them. Run them. Boo. So that's what you can do. You do that. And all for a great cause.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Yeah, for the kids. And feel good about doing you guys. It's the adoptive family Christmas campaign. Awesome. I'd encourage you to heckle for the kids. What did we just talk about? Risk reward. Risk and reward.
Starting point is 00:06:33 There's zero risk and plenty of rewards. I've never seen arms this long. They're just like an octopus. Risk reward, folks. Always, always weigh the risks. and rewards. Feels like there's way more reward than risk in this scenario. Basically zero risk.
Starting point is 00:06:47 It's almost risk because it's a reward guarantee with zero risk. Yeah. Ooh! That's what you can do from the, that's right, from your seat. Devils. Not today, though.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Today it's the Carolina Hurricanes. So what's that mean? They're one and only visit. Just once until the Stanley Cup final. when, of course, the flames will play the Carolina Hurricanes. It'll be nice to have another final in the dome before they knock it down. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Well, there's a few years, a few years for that. So it's a game day. Get your helmet on. There it is. Get your helmet on. 5.01 flames taking on the 3 and 2 Carolina. Now, they would have played five games. Would have been six, but there was a. They got tamped out. A hurricane of some sort down near Tampa.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Probably the right move there. A weather event? Yeah. Significant weather. The hurricanes affected the lightning and the hurricanes. Yeah, natural disasters. Yeah. Careful what you wish for. Yeah, definitely that. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Was it earthquake and typhoon? Was that the natural disasters? Yes. Those are large men. Yeah. Harry men. John Tenta, I believe was the name of earthquake. And then there was, did he also turn into tugboat?
Starting point is 00:08:09 maybe. Jack. Jack? Was earthquake and tugboat the same guy? John Tento. Was he earthquake? Yeah, I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:17 That's what I heard anyways. Yeah. John Tenta. Dead. This is Tenticles. That's a different guy. Both of these teams coming off, huge extra time victories just two nights ago. Ahus of Truth.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Mahusive wins indeed. One in overtime, one in a shootout. Sebastian. Ah, ho. Both erasing deficits. Oh. got the overtime winner against the Oilers. Good boy.
Starting point is 00:08:44 And Justin Kirkland got the winner and then Justin Wolf got the save. Yeah, he did. They both kind of helped out there in the end. As the flames beat the Pittsburgh Penguins. Well, it's nice to get confirmation too because the debate's been raging for a while. Who's better?
Starting point is 00:08:59 Kirkland or Malkin. So that's been put to bed. You can move forward. Apparently Kirkland doesn't miss. 63% in the H.L. In the shootout in his career. So I think everyone was like, what the heck's Huska doing?
Starting point is 00:09:10 I'm like Huska knows. He's good at the shit. Husk knows. And maybe even more importantly, there would be no NHO goal. He's like, I know his move. I can tell you this.
Starting point is 00:09:21 No one would know my move either and it got jumped in the corner. Eric says 10th, John Tiv from Surrey, BC too, fun fact. I had no idea. Really? Canadian.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Everyone loved them. Surrey Eagles? I didn't like him. John. John. I don't even remember him. And Ken is saying that the tugboat
Starting point is 00:09:40 was a different wrestler altogether. so you you don't remember earthquake I kind of don't Jack can we pull like I don't want to put any pressure on you because I know you like to sit there and do nothing but if you could find tugboat or earthquake and typhoon
Starting point is 00:09:56 the natural disaster all three if yeah yeah there's no risk man imagine six man tag with those three who'd you want on the other side you need some big maybe Andre you know you gotta go quick Yokazuna and who else maybe King Kong Bundy or Big John stud both of those I liked Big Big
Starting point is 00:10:12 John Studd. Big John Stud was scared shitless of Andre. Who? Because Andre was, I'm Andre the giant. I am the big man. He's the biggest. And you're going to call your, Big John Stud? Can't do it. I don't think so. So whenever they would, Stud would be like, this is fun. He's going to fucking kill me. He's going to kill me. Because he was mahusive. He was mahusive. Just not as mahusive as Andre. You know, another guy.
Starting point is 00:10:40 And then Andre would get in there and say, I've got these cinder blocks for hands. I'm going to lay these right into your neck. So we'd get him in the corner and do one of those with the, and then just drop them right in. Rake across the chest. Yeah. Now, because the hands of Andre,
Starting point is 00:10:58 the famous image is him holding like, I believe, a Molson Canadian beer. And it looks like it's one of those little tiny airplane climados. Yeah, exactly. To make it seize it. Jack, and I like, oh, here's a little baby one.
Starting point is 00:11:10 like crazy how like nuts maybe that's everything was to scale but the hand was just mind blowing yeah he was uh another great guy everyone loved andre very sad though yeah it's a sad story it's uh it's a tragedy not a comedy yeah life was very difficult when it's a tragedy and a comedy a tragedy because it's romance comedy rom-com yeah camagie camagie cams Camadie. Camadie. Comjury. I just call it life, Dean. Risk reward. Once again. Who is the best announcer? Look at that. Look at it. That's the one. That is not AI, folks. Dude, it looks like one of those little climados you can ask for. It's tiny. And what's great about that one is it's not just his hand. You see somebody else is holding a can. Yes. Oh, it's so it's not a, like you say, a V8.
Starting point is 00:12:09 What are we doing here? And he would just drink cases of wine. Oh, that poor bastard's liver. Yeah. But how do you fly? How do you travel? How do you get around? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Got to be smashed. Sitting at a restaurant. That guy needs Crystal Waters anytime he goes number two. That's right. Crystal Waters is listening. Maybe not comes to my house. Crystal Waters. We might, uh, we may be going to.
Starting point is 00:12:39 the Crystal Waters hotline later in the show. Really? Yeah. Earthquake. We're hoping not, no. Tugboat. Are they all dead, Jack? All them.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Yeah. Isn't that the name of the famous podcast? What is Jack doing over there? Nothing. No, he found the picture. That was good. Yeah, I guess so. That's about as good as you know for far.
Starting point is 00:12:55 I guess so. Yeah. Yeah. He didn't have the overtime save, but he's. Okay. So you asked who was the best, who asked who was the best announcer? I didn't. I did.
Starting point is 00:13:05 I did. Because mean Gene's your best ringside reporter, like the interviewer. Yeah. we would call that. Jerry the King's phenomenal with Jim Ross. Who'd be better than that? I don't know. That felt like peak for my life.
Starting point is 00:13:17 But then again, I don't know if they were there for those like prime Super Bowl or sorry, WrestleMania 3 to 10. Back in those days, your main broadcast duo would have been Gorillamon soon and Jesse the body. Jesse the body, yes. And I did like Jesse because he was always a good foil.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Some sweat hog. Yeah. He was always the, The face, the baby face was always getting a unfair shake. Right. He was always. He picked his favorite. You know, Vince was good at the, at the main play by play.
Starting point is 00:13:48 How much did he do that? I never called that. Yeah, he did a fair bit until the business got to be quite, and then he had to, of course, get into the ring and take care of business. Before I put his kids in the ring. This D-Generation X and Steve Austin, they just, they needed to be put into their place. Rained in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:10 You've watched the dock, I imagine? Yeah. Recommend? Yeah. I mean, entertaining scumbugged? If you don't, if you have nothing,
Starting point is 00:14:17 no interest in wrestling, then you're probably not going to be interested. Yeah, no reference to it. So. You watch it? No, I don't watch TV,
Starting point is 00:14:28 YouTube podcast. So this morning, you got into the lake. You did your cold plunge, but you forgot to set your timer. Yeah, I got the clock out. And so what happened?
Starting point is 00:14:37 Uh, what happened was, There's a little bit of a frost, right? And so that wooden dog. Was the frost on the pumpkins? There was a little frost and that little dot, the docks on the wood. Whoa. I nearly Dixie.
Starting point is 00:14:53 You nearly broke your contract. Oh. Twinkle toes Flintstone barely saved it. So I got a little disheveled and rattled. And then I went in. and I thought I pushed to start, but the dinger never went off. And at the one point, I started to, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:15:18 I'm not really feeling anything anymore. That's a sign of, uh, it's maybe losing nerves. So I did 30 more seconds. I could do this. I was going to say, do you think you did more or less? I think I did about double.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I think I was at four to four and a half. So when you get in, your body starts screaming at you, like get out, get out, get out. you have to override all that. You have to focus on breathing slowly. Like, where do you go mentally?
Starting point is 00:15:43 Because you really need to distract your brain. Otherwise, it's obnoxious as hell. Yeah. Like, what do you think about? I mean, CTE helps in that case. It doesn't work correctly at the best of times. Right. So, yeah, just little things.
Starting point is 00:15:56 You know, I really focus on the show. I want to make sure I'm ready for the show. So it's a good two minutes in the lake. That's his prep, Dean, two and a half minutes every morning. It's efficient. Yeah. thinking about how that power play could improve because it was top five probably it was not great the other night for sure uh it's still sits 13th in the league is that right well we'll take it it's it's tray early but yeah and you know what did a game before i liked it i thought zary and kuzmanko were zipping it around and then last game and you and after that you said they can't take zary oh zary's got to live there i just think you there's certain amount of hockey IQ there that i don't know that uh anyone else has the ceiling that he does on it if you're going to have have already the staples of like a Kusmenko.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Yeah. The other parts, I don't know who's untouchable. Sharon Goldwich coming back and be nice. We kind of forgotten about him. Is he alive? Yeah. Good. Not skating yet, I don't believe.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Rooney has been skating, but Kirkland's been great. Less concerned about the rushing of Rooney. The Roondog. No question. No question. But you're right. I mean, Hansa Kina was plateauing pretty hard there before he got hurt. Sure was.
Starting point is 00:17:04 Coronado may at some point be a top line player in the league. He ain't that yet. that they could use a Sharongovich. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. And the other thing that was noted that I'd forgotten about that he was just automatic in the shootout. Remember all this dirty moves?
Starting point is 00:17:19 He like, Jesus, where did this guy come from? He was awesome in the shootout year. And it was two years ago, Daryl would look down and be like, none of these dusters can do this. Like, they were brutal. No one on the team even close to 30%. No Kirkland at his disposal. That's right. No Kirklands, no Sharongoviches, no Zeres.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Tough. feel for them. Imagine how good this team will be when they get Sharon Govich. What's their record? 5.0 and 1. Oh, they're undefeated. Best and their top scores out? That's right. Well, Codry was the score last year.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Not my goals, but points, yeah. Like, I think Sharon Govich was 32 bingoes last year. Bingoes. Bigos. A lot of goals. Look at that. Huh. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezing. Exactly what people.
Starting point is 00:18:07 People thought Anaheim and Calgary. We're going to cash those Bet365 division winners. That's in April. Might even have that locked the X in beside them or the Y to clinch maybe by what, Feb? Yeah. March. I think what's important is we all have a positive attitude and an outlook for it for tonight.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Tara says I, oh. I think it ends tonight. Terry. These don't. Not really the vibe we're looking for. She's probably going to get. No hell. It's on.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Get ready big game. Five on one. And I was, you know what? This is not your, your father's Carolina hurricanes. There's been many changes since you've seen them last. But they kind of are the same, though. Like the decor is totally different, but I'm looking at it. Still really hard to get shots against.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Still really strong defensively. It seems to me like the system's more important than the piece of the same. Literally Larry, hey, literal Larry here. Okay. Let's not talk what they did. So the 95. I was going to go. I said it's, they're not your.
Starting point is 00:19:09 father's Carolina hurricanes. I was just going to limp in with a so many different, a lot of guys are gone. Yeah. Is what, is what this comes down to. Tara Vinen was there for eight years. That's one shy of nine. One shy of.
Starting point is 00:19:25 And he's gone. He said, I'm going to go play with this Connor Bedard kid, I think. Where is that? Chicago. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. That's a nice city. Had 25 goals last year, career high, set him out.
Starting point is 00:19:39 So there's 25 goals off. Just gone for the Caird. The Cains, yeah. Because I want to go back. He came to Carolina. He was the sweetener in the Brian Bickle deal. When Chicago was like, we've got way too much dough.
Starting point is 00:19:53 We need, because somebody just take this, this lump. How was his contract? And his, his contract. It was Bickle Bad. It was Bickle Bad, for sure.
Starting point is 00:20:03 We'll give you, Tara Vine. And if you'll just take this off of our hands. For a decade, he was a very good middle, Let's explainer. Brett Pesci turned his back in the Carolina Hurricanes. Nine seasons he was there.
Starting point is 00:20:14 How many? It's two on the nose. Fairly steady. Top for her. 20 minute a night guy. He wants nine years. I'm going to New Jersey. New Jersey?
Starting point is 00:20:26 That's right. Brady Shea. He gone. They gave up a first to bring in Brady Shea. Great player. I love Morgan Wallen, he said. How many years was he there? Only four.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Morgan Wallen? he said he's going to Nashville oh I just hang out with old red yeah although seven times said has a great it's like a breakfast scramble poutine
Starting point is 00:20:52 do you know I need a nap after sorry that or the nurse cancel my 1 o'clock of course Tony Diangelo who he's gone too Richard noted Richard yeah he's gone
Starting point is 00:21:04 they gave up some stuff to bring in Jake Gensel and he didn't stick around either. Yeah, a second and like four prospects. Second, fifth, bunting and three bodies. Yeah. It's not that much, really, is it for against? A second fifth?
Starting point is 00:21:23 Well, it's two months against. So. Yeah. Yeah. Second fifth, three players. Pitt would do it again. They don't, they didn't lose it for nothing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Carolina, probably you do that again too because you're like, hey, we think we're a contender. Let's go out a guy that's won before and it's clutch. Top nine guys, Stefan Nason. had 15, what, 15 goals? He was a nice fine. Remember him just toiling in Anaheim and Ottawa and all these other places forever? Like, yeah, I guess he's not in the NHL.
Starting point is 00:21:47 That's a failed prospect bust, not going to happen. And then boom, two years ago at the playoff draft, we made fun of some guy for picking Stefan Nason on the team. And he was unbelievable. It was pretty good. 14 goals last year. So that's Terravine and Nason two out of your top nine for sure. Terravine, not their top guy, but one of their better players is 25 goals.
Starting point is 00:22:08 Be a key Cod. the blue line is the real overhaul. It is. And it's continued to happen because it's been a few years of them leaking some guys out, but it's still slaving. And, you know, they really like this Jalen Chatfield, who's big and physical, plays on the third pair. But it's the system that they play.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Because Shay's numbers in Nashville, I was reading this morning. Like his, when he's on the ice, puck's in his end way too much and not on the other end. And the chances are at one end and it's his. It's a rough start in Nashville. It's a worse start for him than it's been for Marshall's own Stamcoast and the underlying number. and there's a guy that you're like, look at that Carolina, he's such a great defender.
Starting point is 00:22:43 It's the Carolina system. And Shay, I'm sure we'll straighten things out a bit. But with Gostis Bear and Walker, two guys that we think offense first as a second pair, this group is doing the same thing they's always done defensively. They suppress a ton of shots. They don't give up a lot of chances and they get good goal to me. Gostis Bear leads them in goals, goals in four straight games. Jeez.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Signed a three-year deal, 3.2 per season on July 1. he had 56 points in 81 games last year with Detroit and I got looking basically since the kind of end of the lockout type thing, 2021 season. Carolina twice, Detroit, Arizona, Philly. 173 points in 284 games. So you're at about a point two? You're at about a point six.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Sorry Rasmus Anderson. You're not getting nine. Actually, I'm going to use Eric Carlson's. Yeah, I'm going to use a different comp, maybe. but Slavitt's the only got us left three years ago on this blue line. Like Burns has added trade from San Jose. Gosses Spare, you just talked about. Walker, new edition.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Chatfield's been in the miners has finally come up. Or Love, they had from Washington and trade a few years ago. Or in free agency after he was traded to Boston. So that's five of their six D men brand new. They still look like Carolina Hurricanes with the old blue line. Well, we'll see. The house. That's like six games.
Starting point is 00:24:01 But it's not your brother. Yeah. Father's hurricanes. Yeah, it's a lot of changes. A lot of changes. A lot of changes. some new faces. Freddie Anderson's still there.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Old Pete Kachetkel is still there. Those two? Yeah. Keep saying that's still there. Good tandem. Anderson's going to get hurt at some point. And then Kachikov holds the mail. I don't know that there's a megastod there, but the way they defend you don't need one
Starting point is 00:24:21 necessarily. Anderson so far. I don't guess what else they don't do. Win. 1.64 and a 939. Oh, that's tied. He was in for the Edmonton win. Cochette cough.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Again, these numbers, he's throw out. They play two games or whatever, but 305, 867 for Kochetkoff, who. is considerably younger, a decade younger, Freddie Anderson, 35 years old. They had the uncle auntie for a while there and some other fellows, just, who was it, maybe Rimer they brought in for a bit. Yeah, Rhymers for a bit. Buying low on guys having bad years saying goalies or voodoo, let's just bet on bouncebacks by time for Kachetkov.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And Anderson was always good in Toronto, had a bad playoffs. He's been good for them. It just hurt a lot. He had like blood clot issues last year, I think. Yeah. So he's 35. the blue line orlov 33 Slavin 30
Starting point is 00:25:11 Burns is 39 Gossus bear 31 Sean Walker's 29 Burns is 39 Burns is 39 Who You want to find Why is that surprising you
Starting point is 00:25:25 He's been around forever Well he's top pair It's just impressive Like Well I can skate So all you kids out there Because I know you're listening A lot of kids
Starting point is 00:25:34 Yeah it's a kid podcast And I stumbled into something last night that I did not know to be the case. Burns has played in 848 consecutive games. Is he your current iron memory? Second longest active streak in the NHL, seventh longest all time. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Phil Kessel, because he's not retired, is still considered active. And he's got that 1064 thing going. Take him out of the mix. And yes, Brent Burns is your longest active. Hasn't missed the game since 1314 in San Jose.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Really? Wow. And he plays 20 a night power play. 1314. 848 consecutive games. Is that the season they traded Jerome? Like that's how long ago? There's your look. That crazy? Just strikes me as a like, like you say, a good skater, but he is 39 years old. So he could crack top five, your boy, Patty Marlowe, maybe even top four, Gary Unger, if he stays healthy this year. Wild. And you two have a kinship, I would think. You both have, you're both very hairy and you love snakes. I'm not that hairy.
Starting point is 00:26:54 I have lots of hair. Take a shirt off. I'm not hairy. No, I have lots of hair. Like right here, there's lots of hair. Some hair. What about this area? Yeah, we have beards, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Yeah, you're both hairy. I don't have like a cashmere sweater. You know, some guys, I don't think he does either. I'm just saying he has a lot. Tad it up. Okay. Gosh. I'd never thought of it that way.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Yes, the beard for sure. You guys have a kinship. You both have a lot of hair from the neck up and in the facial and facial head top of your head region. And you both like snakes. Ryan is a lot of. to details, Dean? Context and details and accuracy.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Yeah. You know what? The most impressive out here is Craig McTavish, the helmetless one. That's right. 518 games. Like play that many with no helmet. Without a bucket. Using the clink for a bit too.
Starting point is 00:27:51 That would interrupt at a street potentially. What? What? Jack, am I wrong? Dean. Was it not in the clink? Dean. Short show.
Starting point is 00:28:06 No comment. Short show. Just keep a. tidy you dropped your paper red yeah that's okay so good on brent burns that's quite an accomplishment keep it up kid or dad i guess so is he the oldest active player in the league be close let's find it out right meow another guy you talk about uh well we're talking about beard so again gray beards jordan stall year 19 yeah national hockey league still stall still martinook still ahoh there's some career guys too
Starting point is 00:28:41 Flurian Souter oldest. For context, yeah, because he was, I think, the year prior, right? Jordan Stahl was taken second overall in 2006. So Jordan Stahl playing tonight. In that 06 draft, the flames drafted Leland Irving. Leland. That's a long time ago. Leland, Leeland.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Good golfer. Surprisingly, though. Really good. Yeah, he's a stick. I figured maybe this would be a, uh, Eric Johnson went first that year. He's still playing. Yeah, wow.
Starting point is 00:29:15 I didn't know. A lot of the Johnson's still going. Trevor Lewis, the first rounder that year. He's still playing. Semyon Varlamov, Jeff Petrie, Nick Folino, Claude Giroux, Brad Marchand, James Reimer,
Starting point is 00:29:28 all taken from that draft, all still playing. Wow. Holy smokes, Dean. Your boy, Gold, had a Trevor Lewis blast on afterward of the other team. Yeah, he did. He's, you know what it is?
Starting point is 00:29:41 he's got Pinder Envy. The longer I worked with him. Who, Gould? Yeah. I don't like saying that name. Anything he could do to. Can't say it right.
Starting point is 00:29:50 Gold. It's a rip the oilers. Coach Dwell. Yeah. He's got good mentorship. Good, good kid. But fellas.
Starting point is 00:29:58 We've come this far. We've talked about the Carolina hurricanes and we've not really talked about the most important part. Is it 80s night? It's Rod the Bod. Oh. Save of the best for last, Dean. Rod, Vanessa Williams, Rod Brindamore won a Stanley Cup as a Carolina hurricane.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Damn ready to do. Spent something like eight years behind the bench as an assistant is now into year seven, I believe, as the head coach. Third contract there with the, uh, the war. Hurricanes had missed the playoffs for nine straight seasons. You've had so many opportunities. Nine years. That's one. Don't worry, but it's too late now.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Nine times. The hurricanes had missed the playoffs. nine times consecutively hired Rod Brindamore as their head coach. They have made the playoffs in all six seasons since and won around at least around in all six years since Rod the Bond. They can't get over the hump.
Starting point is 00:30:58 They can't get over the hump with Rod. Not true. That's what's a tough look. That's what you're telling people? That's not what I'm telling people at all. I don't know that there'd be a team that has more wins in the regular season the last six years. I think Toronto might be in there, Boston might be in there.
Starting point is 00:31:12 I guess maybe like six years they won eight rounds it's good made it to the conference final twice remember what we used to say about san Jose similar really good just don't do well there kind of why is that wrong you know i'm not going to say i think that's apt that's kind of because you've now seen pashy's gone and slavent's gone you gave up picks to bring in gensel that didn't work they've i'm not saying the window's closing I don't think it is. But this is a win now, hurry up and win now kind of a team.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And not unlike San Jose that Rett's referencing. It was about a decade and a half of always being around contender, but never quite the gargantuan favorite or behemoth, right? They were never Goliath. They got a good system. They got good players. It all has to come together.
Starting point is 00:32:03 And then something falls. We'll add a piece of the deadline. We don't need to use all these picks. And then, yeah, out in the semis or the conference final. gray beards on the blue line, but fairly young up top. The thing,
Starting point is 00:32:18 they do a good job of, of shuffling the guys through. They lose a guy, they get someone else. Yeah. They do play a system. They do play a system. It's a,
Starting point is 00:32:28 there's Svechnikov. He and Kotkenyemi. They're 24 years old, each of them in year seven in the NHL. That offer sheet was one of the weirdest ones ever, the Kuckin'i. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:41 And then they tried to take Ajo and all did was really. They just got Aho locked into the deal. Thanks for that. That was the stupidest thing I've ever seen version of man. You're like, huh? You signed Aho to a team friendly deal and thought you'd get the player. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Ooh, go get them, bud. So Ross Lovic came in as a unrestricted free agent, as did William Carrier, one of the original Vegas Golden Knights. Jackson Blake, that's Jason's son. The two guys are. But he can skate. He can. He's got a, I think he has a couple of goals already this year. You know who else can skate.
Starting point is 00:33:13 brother of a former flames icon on this forward group. Brother? I think about it. I'm sure that you're... Brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother. Brother, brother, brother. It's, it's, no one's gonna know.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Eric Robinson is one of the speedier guys you'll find league. Brother was Buddy Robinson. Buddy Robinson. Robinson. I mean, of course, was high school pals of Johnny. That's right. And it was funny because it was like, take your kid to school because he was so bloody big and John, as Johnny says.
Starting point is 00:33:49 You see those lines again there, Jack. I'm sorry. So Ross, Natius is young, Kotkinemi, Svetnikov, Aho, Seth Jarvis, just signed a fat new contract in the offseason. Of course, yeah. Stahl, we told he is not. Jack Drury. And the other thing that's interesting here, it's like Chris is, it's not. So Ajo, Kotkenyemi, Stahl, Drury, all centers. Seth Jarvis play center
Starting point is 00:34:14 Marty Natchez plays center Roslovick also might as well I think so they play center but because of the depth yes they're they're pushed to the wing here so it's very similar to Calgary is
Starting point is 00:34:27 because Calgary is so many wingers they actually have to push guys to center like you know last year our boy Sharon Gilvich yeah is that what this is or do they actually have they've got lots of center they have pure centers plethora yeah I would say this if nature
Starting point is 00:34:42 or Jarvis were in Calgary, they are centering a line. Agreed. And that's what championship teams do. They're not a championship team. Don't say that. Well, they're of that caliber. No, they're not. What do you mean you're of that caliber? You're either the champion or you're not.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Fair. So I'm not saying they're the champion. If you're saying that, then the Oilers are a championship team. They're a championship caliber team. Don't say that. It sucks, but it's true. At least it was last year. Or having that, it would be the trade of a championship team, even though they're not.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Yeah. So, for example, you'd have like Nuggen Hopkins on the wing a ton. rather than down the middle because you're just so deep in the center. Pittsburgh center, center, like when they were great. Center, center, centers. All these teams deep down the middle. That's the one area of the flames.
Starting point is 00:35:20 What's wrong with that Nugent Hopkins too? Like, why would you- Let's not talk about the oilers. I know that's our default all the time. So, the Marty Natchez, Calgary, they were linked for a little bit before. Oh, he's a center. How do these linking start?
Starting point is 00:35:36 Well, I think it's just like, rumors and innuendos. Here's Calgary that really could use some centers. Here's Carolina that has. has a whole bunch of centers. And then the guy's dad goes into the media in Europe and says, you know, they should be playing my boy down the middle and the contract's not going to. And everyone says, oh, they're not going to sign. They're not going to sign.
Starting point is 00:35:54 You better trade him. He's got our brains. I'm going to text my boys kids or coach. And so get your. I'm on. Is that what you're going to do? That's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:01 That always helps. Thanks. Carl Lindross. That'll work out well. I know you loved it last year in Buffalo. And the parents had pointers for you about their own children's ice time. I text all the dads the other day. said I miss you fellows.
Starting point is 00:36:13 All of your BS and junkiness was wonderful. Kept me on my toes. What are we talking about? You only see them once. We don't see Carolina here very often. And they're also one of those teams. I don't think it's like Ottawa. Are there a bunch of hurricanes fans?
Starting point is 00:36:30 They are these San Jose of the East. Yeah. Honestly, non-traditional market. When San Jose was good forever, yeah. They'd come into town. You're like,
Starting point is 00:36:39 this is a really good team. Are you excited to go watch them? No, not really. A little bit, but yeah, not a top 10. It wasn't a, I have to get sharks coming to town. It's not the Habs visit. It's not. Marlow and Lorton, which were superstars.
Starting point is 00:36:54 You still weren't. We got new Flames Line combos. Oh, like they're skating. Why are you, 5.1 and you're changing? Well, there's just some guys coming, return to health. Now I've got to test. Huska. Look who's back, boys.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Look, who's back. who you gotta keep scanning it lower lower i don't want that who's out well we're's uh pospals up to the top line so coronado drops to the fourth so hot clapka comes out kirklin's been so good he's the third line center and the roondog likely to be activated off iR today would slide into fourth line center and play with the lomburgainee and what if we'd have told you that by game six or game seven of the year Kirkland would be center of Huberto and Mantha. You'd probably think
Starting point is 00:37:44 that top five pick would be looking pretty good. Tell us more with this James Hagan's fellow. I still think that I don't like this. But don't you like talking about? Well, there's tinkering going on and that means that the coach is seeing some things. Yeah, and to be fair, like if you On a 5-0-1 squad. If you look at their last two games,
Starting point is 00:38:03 Seattle and then obviously the opener of the homestand, there was not nearly the jump and offensive chances created that saw through the first, which it was obviously, they weren't going to score 16 goals every three games or whatever, but they've needed a shuffle. They benched Pospicil off that third line, Dean, for the whole second period last game after two penalties. The shovel of the deck isn't surprising.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Yeah. I just mentioned Coronado is a little tired up top. It's probably what all the undefeated teams are doing is shuffling the deck. It makes sense. He is maybe getting in front of it. I was the guy that sat here yesterday and said, you know, it's starting to get a little sloppy. It's not quite. They're winning.
Starting point is 00:38:42 it feels like they're prime for a performance that doesn't end in a W. I guess just looking at those lines, it's the Pospisal rather than going to a fourth line with Lomburg goes to the top line, if you want to call it that with Caudry. Wow, you were going to rip Codry the other day. If you want to bring, it's not so much Codry, but if you're going to bring Rooney back,
Starting point is 00:39:04 all right, he's a send him and get him in there, Kirkland while he's play, I guess. It's just that Pospisal gets that, at least to start that spot on. the Cadry. That's got some piss and vinegar. Possiposol and Cadry have done things together. Remember last year it was those two in Zeri
Starting point is 00:39:18 that became the line that helped pull this team out of the muck after that horrible, horrible shirty stare. And Coronado hasn't been undeniable by any of this. Not at all. And Klapka hasn't either. So he comes out. Coronado slides into his spot. Kirkland, you've got to leave in the way he's going and the Rundog's healthy.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And just a preview of tomorrow's show that if the flames do drop this, Rhett will be reinforcing his, why would you tinker with a 501 roster? right to get ahead of it until it doesn't work. Well, hey, look, if it's not working, you can switch back to the regular ones after 20 or whatever.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Yeah, that's the thing. These aren't concrete. You two idiots don't know what you're talking. That's correct, but we've been doing that for 10 years. Coming up tomorrow, speaking of tomorrow, we are going to be, you know, it's a fluid situation. I don't lie to you. What's fluid because it's beer?
Starting point is 00:40:05 It's a liquid situation. Is that what you're saying? Is that the... It's a delicious fluid carbonated... I love how. You did that. Well, the show might be fluid. The situation also is fluid.
Starting point is 00:40:18 There's going to be a show tomorrow. You're the worst. You said it, brother. There's going to be a show tomorrow. You tell them, Dino. That may or may not be here in studio. Details. But for sure, there will be, we'll be doing something.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Oh, it would be a post-game analysis, guaranteed. Indeed. At Origin, the OC, the brand new spot. Oh, yeah. For Origin, malting and brewing. It's the grand opening, don't you know? The doors open at 12 noon right there. They got beer specials.
Starting point is 00:40:50 They got food. They got games. They got music. And they got barn burner. Can we get them to open just a touch early so we can get set up? Yeah, I want to make sure that we have, you know, the glasses washed and the kegs are flowing nicely before we just open the doors. I know Rett's going to want to run that Ethernet cable. Make sure that we're, uh, you said Ether.
Starting point is 00:41:09 that speed that you know the speed test make sure we're 943 23 28th Street Northeast come join us it's like a come and go tea except I'm not a big tea guy I know we got some yeah British enough some Welsh in my background but Welsh is a Welsh name
Starting point is 00:41:28 do we want to talk out the situation surrounding tomorrow? Offer at honor I would say be there at noon and we'll we're going to live stream and have some fun and we're going to mess about. No, I'm not guaranteeing a Christmas show performance, but I would say we'll probably have the bills paid and our requirements, you know, of the show show, done. And then we can just hang out and have beer and not worry about offending anyone. Is that fair? I don't know what he just said.
Starting point is 00:41:55 Sure. So do a pre-show show show and then another show show show. Fos show. I like, like I said, do you like it? I'm an ideas guy. I don't get bogged down by these details. Dean gets bogged down, though. Well, because shit doesn't get done unless Dean gets bog down. My word. We yeah, we need to just figure out what we're doing. Here's what we're doing. Because we could do the show. Boss,
Starting point is 00:42:24 we could do the show there. No, no, no, no, no. He just, or we could not do the show. We're going to the show here at 930 to 10. Dragger's going to join the show. We're going to do a normal show. Do we get a half hour show? No, it'll go to till 930 to 10 start. Maybe we start a little bit early. With a window.
Starting point is 00:42:43 We're not a short show. A normal show. We'll have drag around. It'll be a good show. Great show. And we'll pack our stuff. It's a great show. Hawaiian shirt.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Ratings are very high. It's a popular show. Much more popular than failing Oprah show. You just cut their mics and let us know what's going to happen. They're being idiots. And then when we're done here, we'll go to origin and we'll do another show. Might not really be a show. It might not be a good show.
Starting point is 00:43:10 No, it'll be a good show. It'll be a hell of a show. That's not how you're teasing this show tomorrow. You don't say it's probably not. It might not be any good. It's going to be great. Okay. It'll be great.
Starting point is 00:43:20 That's why you want people to come. I've got another idea. All right. Why don't you two come do the show show, and then I'll go to origin to do the other show. We have drags. It's not the worst idea of heard. And you set everything up for us, right?
Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah, because I just said, I love Ethernet cables. And then I'll just get early start on my weekend. Yeah, you can head off early. Nice. Sounds good. I'll get a little start on my weekend, too. I'll be lying on the floor of origin by two, three in the afternoon looking at the lights. Don't you lie.
Starting point is 00:43:46 I know what you're not going to. You've got no free windows this week. It's weird because it's gone from, well, it can't be a runaway because of this. And then it's like, I'm going to be on the floor. Okay. Well, it's right by before o'clock. I've bought some time, but I do have to be irresponsible, a human. Just drop the turds in my house.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Who cares? He doesn't know. know them that well. Dirt. You know what I live with? No, but I don't, I think you're... Here's the other thing. Do your kids have older brothers?
Starting point is 00:44:21 Do you want them to get straightened out? Because they can come to my house and my kids can kick the snot out of them. I'm cool with that. That's also an option because if your boys get out of hand, I've got two Yahoo's that might lay the spectre. Yahoo? The other ones out of town. Yeah, I just don't discount the loony tunny lunatic quotient.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Or they might get along glowingly. It's all kinds of them. Thieves. The next thing you know, your docks are floating at the center of life. Well, that was a great discussion. It was. What's the, uh, so tomorrow. Text line thinking.
Starting point is 00:44:55 What do they recommend? They're talking about whether Zeri should be a center. Oh, Jesus. That is deep. Deep. You know what will happen? I'm going to tell all the folks out there that are wondered. There will come a point in time during the 24, 25 season.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Yep. There's a thing called the injury bug. There's a illness. It will show up. And Zari or Zeri or Connor, Calgary Connor will play center. He will get his opportunity. Do you have a breaking news?
Starting point is 00:45:29 I don't. Not for that. That's why you tune in on daily. Crazy. Scary old injury. Zary. Illness. Connor, Calgary.
Starting point is 00:45:41 I'm going to start. calling them. Or Calgary Connor. Which, why is it better that way? Connor Calgary? Let's do the Pinder report. It's probably good idea. Located in the Northwest Auto Mall online at village honda.com in stock inventory.
Starting point is 00:45:56 This is, we talked about the CRV. The Honda pilot was redesigned a couple years ago. And everything is standard. Everything you could want. All of the safety features, I mean, basically. It parks itself for you. It lets you know you're getting too close. Hey, stupid, don't park there.
Starting point is 00:46:17 There's something in your rear view. Seated heats. They have seated heats. It's, uh, do you remember that one? You know, technology and stuff. It's got so much of that. Right. In the new, uh, the Honda pilot.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Take one for a rip. Village Honda, your dealership for life. I'm not real, uh, technologically smart. Well, it's what they are. Yeah, that's why you trust the pilot. It's your dealership for life. Ryan Pind, Ryan Pindo.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Godfay's game day. Oh, if you like the blasties, it's a double down. Nice. Yeah, there he is. A.I. Looking good out there in number two. It's Blake Coleman.
Starting point is 00:47:02 And yes, it's the only visit the season for the Cains, which you've talked about. Resting on their laurels with the jerseys? They're making lineup changes. Resting? Staying hot. Okay. You see that last semester.
Starting point is 00:47:13 minute game time goal and empty it behind them. Oh, I do. Drama and overtime. You can't be changing the jerseys. You change the lines, right? Yeah, that makes way more sense. Don't change your underwear or your jerseys. Change the lines. There they are. The Kings of the Pacific, Dan.
Starting point is 00:47:28 I like that. 11 points and six games. The L.A. plays there. That's why it's confusing, because shit. I say Kings of the Pacific. You might look at the fourth place team. Kings, I thought. What about the Knights of the? No, that doesn't work either. Okay. Their first place, 5-0-1-1.
Starting point is 00:47:42 We'll see how long they can go with the a regulation loss. And they've started their three game home stand with a point, one of two. Got Winnipeg coming up. This is not an easy little homestand. Three good two. Three good guys.
Starting point is 00:47:55 Nobody gets hurt. It's true. We'll see it counts. Here's your skid. And there's the rest of the homestand. And then that little two game roadie. They got to win this game so that Saturday night is a face off between undefined squads.
Starting point is 00:48:11 And I'll be at back. I'll be at that games. Will you? I'm not going to be at that game. Do note the early start time for that game. Five. Five on Saturday, seven tonight, before they head out for,
Starting point is 00:48:22 what would you call that a desert swing, Vegas to Salt Lake? I wouldn't. Really? Well, you say desert. Oh, dessert? Delicious. I've got ice cream cake in the freezer,
Starting point is 00:48:34 if you guys want to. You've mentioned this ice cream cake. I thought I want to get rid of it. You were not an ice cream cake. I'm not. That's why I shouldn't get rid of it. That's why it's still there. He was a fan.
Starting point is 00:48:42 It'd be gone. Send your kids. over. They can have some ice? I get farty. Yeah, the dairy. I don't know. Milk was a bad idea. Do you prefer regular cake or ice cream cake? Some people really like the ice cream. No way.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Angel food is my sneaky dark. My pants last night. Will you speak English to me? Angel food cake. No. All right. I'll move on. What are you at 12? Delicious light. Is there money in the cake? Fluffy? I hope not. That's dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty,
Starting point is 00:49:11 dirty, dirty. Dime. Greasy, dirty. Grisy dirty. Doug out of the ground. Did you ever have that though? Yes, of course you do. Breaking your teeth. Jack, did you ever have that in your birthday cake?
Starting point is 00:49:19 Loons and tunes? No. Loons and tunes. This was before the loons and nickels. Maybe some quarters. Get some blue noses in there. You got a quarter. You had the best piece.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Mom knew where the quarter was and that was for the birthday boy. Right. People know what we're talking about, don't they? I think so. People over the age of 40, dude. Yeah, when we were kids for whatever reason. Can you imagine the shit? Maybe you'd get in now.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Have the old bowl with the, the cake batter in there. And then just dump a handful of change in there, I guess is what you do. Yeah, like some good luck pawn with poifish. You just flip some coins in there. And then when you're eating the birthday, you got your party. Well, like that all your buddies are over. There might be some, might be a surprise in the cake there for you. Oh.
Starting point is 00:50:05 God. Who put this shirt in here? You would get thrown in jail now. I was just going to say you would do time. Yeah. Because some kid would swallow it and then they. Yeah. I was allergic to nickel.
Starting point is 00:50:20 What is that saying about shit and nickels? I don't know. I'll Google it. Ryan, back to you. Shirting Nichols. Carolina, we looked at their lines and pairs. Let's just zip right through to the,
Starting point is 00:50:32 uh, the Metro division. The Kings of the Metro. Hey. Well, not really. They're kind of in the middle of the pack, but this division I don't think is very good. I think the Rangers, devils, and hurricanes are good.
Starting point is 00:50:44 I have a lot of questions about the rest here. Carolina, just look at the games played column. That'll tell a bit of the story. They aren't mid. They just haven't played much. This is their division with the Rangers and the Devils to fight over. Yeah, I guess so. We missed it.
Starting point is 00:51:02 I'm not as, again, they're the San Jose. I'm not as excited about the Keynes. I respect them. Yeah, I agree. Good. If the Rangers come to town, damn right. Yeah, if the range is, oh my gosh, okay, you get with Adam fought. Look at this guy here.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Yeah. Spinichick and fire it. Oh, man, Panarin, the best goal in league. Carolina, like, yeah, they're just a good team. Yeah. That's that should be this high flying snipers. Yeah, I mean, 25, 30, not 45, 50. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Go watch. Go watch. You have a show after tonight? Go watch your structure. I'm doing the show tonight. Oh. Cammy and myself tonight for Afterburning. Lock in on that.
Starting point is 00:51:39 We missed a great scrap a couple nights ago. I didn't. You didn't miss it? So you watched it or you're not missing it? I wouldn't say I was missing it. Exactly. How about a couple of big boys here? We got Dylan McElrath.
Starting point is 00:51:53 First job. Yeah, they didn't want Cam Fowler to run a power play for a decade and a half, so they went and took Dylan McElrath. And then, yeah, Glenn said they went up to do upper management stuff after that. Well, Nick's tough. He is great. That tilt with him and Rampé last year, fight of the year. With that massive welt on his forehead.
Starting point is 00:52:12 These are big boys. This was part of the frenzy. I think, yeah, you might have to see that. This is the, this is how the frenzy kicked up. That's how you do it. Oh, they throw on them, boys.
Starting point is 00:52:27 It is some kind of a tilt. Kind of a tilt. One of the worst adjectives, some kind of a, to describe anything. To me, it's a Lubardiism. It is, this is some kind of special.
Starting point is 00:52:44 That's some kind of, blank was always a little. We should call Lou. Love Lou. We should call Lou. Jack, give Lou on the call Lou. Call Lou. Call Lou. Not Lamarillo. He'd never answer. Yeah. Did you hear the story about his phone
Starting point is 00:52:59 in Jersey? No. No. So he got the job in Toronto. He moved from New Jersey to Toronto. He's like, okay, did you put the, uh, you know, that the, the cord in so my phone line can't get tapped? You're like, uh, no, sir, I don't know what that is. And they're like, in New Jersey, had a special. cord so the phone couldn't be tapped so no one can listen to my phone calls. I'd like you to install that into my new phone here in Toronto as I'm going to be the general manager. Right. So the Toronto, to IT guys, like, I don't know anything. So they literally called
Starting point is 00:53:26 yours like, yeah, we just put a red cord and it goes nowhere under his death told him at the same house. Hi, I just wondering, where is my closet of murder and hammers? You got any, uh, because I, you know, in Jersey, I had a, yeah, closet of hammers. I used to murder people. Right. I don't want to talk about. There's going to be horror stories come out after years. Oh, don't. That's Ryan Bucks.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Ominous. That's the saddest right. Ryan Baxter. Well, we had Mac T in the clink and now we got loose. Hey, what? I'm stating facts. He is wildly speculating. I'm not speculating about anything.
Starting point is 00:54:05 You know what would be the kind of speculation we like around here? Speculating on a hot young prospect player. because when you're 15 years old, you're not supposed to be this good at hockey. Landon DuPont, three assists last night, his second three-point game in the last two weeks, 16 points in 11 games, 15 years old,
Starting point is 00:54:27 and no, not a forward dean, a defenseman in the Western League. He's ninth in league scoring at 15 years of age. This is bonkers. I was going to say selfish, but their assists. Not selfish. even better. Brett.
Starting point is 00:54:46 I can't. What are you? How much you can. I was only, I was going to add to this was go buy your tickets to the W. H.L game because he's going to sell out. Like what do you? He's 15.
Starting point is 00:54:59 He's already very good. By next year he'll be too good for this league. I still not draft. He's still not. Go play in Switzerland. Like Austin. What are you going to do? Is dad played there?
Starting point is 00:55:09 That's true. Dad was a great pro in your. He might be Swiss. He could. do he's got a passport i bet he's got a passport wow which would suck for for the four nations cup when he's playing
Starting point is 00:55:22 for switzerland no no it's just true uh mckenna had two goals last night i believe as well and for medicine hat or the night before Steve young young kids so good I've got a great story medicine hats uh plays
Starting point is 00:55:38 the hitman on the day before Halloween the 30th and there's people are very excited about the game. You got Basha. Lidstrom's hurt again, of course. Basha where I had a talk with like McKenna. Is that right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Good kid. Real motivator. Yeah, it was against the, the hitman. I don't know when it was, but it was last night. McKenna. A couple of balls,
Starting point is 00:55:57 Bashes. Kenna. Yeah. Basha. Linsstrom's hurt again. Yeah, the Columbus took over. Bad back?
Starting point is 00:56:03 Yes. Well, I wanted him to come here. Maybe we're lucky. You know, cause your Achilles, by the way. Don't know. I'm mine.
Starting point is 00:56:13 I think it's a goutish type thing. You're a little, why can't it be? Because gout's a joint issue. No, it's not. That is a misconception. So it is not uric acid buildup in a joint. It crystallized it can be uric acid buildup.
Starting point is 00:56:29 It doesn't have to be in a joint. Okay. So you're thinking I have tendon uric acid buildup? Why not? I don't know. I'm not a doctor. Exactly. And I am.
Starting point is 00:56:37 You seem to kind of, you seem to be fairly sure that it's not. Well, I've just never heard of gout, not in a joint. so maybe I'm out. You are a gody though. I'm hobbly. But you are, you are prone to goate.
Starting point is 00:56:48 You've had flare-ups. What do you mean? I've had Rick flare-ups. Woo! That's right. That was him coming up the stairs today. Every other step. Woo!
Starting point is 00:57:02 Woo! Woo! Woo! Oh, I faded. It was back. Woo! All right.
Starting point is 00:57:09 It's a long staircase. Back to you. Thank to me. Thursday night football tonight, fellas. It's an interesting one. Juggernaut? Well, look you have here. You got the castaway, Sam Darnold,
Starting point is 00:57:21 and the nearly undefeated Vikings, who took one in the teeth late against Detroit. So close. And Matt Stafford, who couldn't win in that division, came to L.A., won a Super Bowl. But the Rams are kind of flirting with the idea of maybe her rebuilding on the fly if they don't get a win here tonight.
Starting point is 00:57:38 Cup has been linked to teams that want a wide receiver. We've seen three significant, at Y receiver trades already this year. Steelers. Steelers are in on everything. They just don't actually get the guy. Ask Jack. They got Tom when they don't need.
Starting point is 00:57:50 That's right. Tom, we can go play Y receiver. And the interesting thing, Stafford has been linked to these Vikings. But if Darno plays well tonight, there's a better chance of that trade actually happening because then a Rams lost, they'd be actually in sell mode, not a game out of first in the division. It's wild. Nice art though there.
Starting point is 00:58:10 Sam, up for him. VP Darnold? Yeah, because they drafted JJ McCarthy was going to be their guy next year, you'd think, right? Dino, like done for the year, but you'd take them in the very high in the first round. There was no, I mean, even those guys, there's no way you could see what Darnold.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Oh, I've always respect to the talent. How's your fantasy team, no? That's okay. You still don't want to trade for James Cook, I thought you were best. I don't trust that anything you offer me is of best intent. He will not accept a trade Even if it was like, hey,
Starting point is 00:58:44 Ray, take this guy for free. He's a bill. Like, I mean, you're a, you are a crumb. You think, you're thinking seven steps ahead and I'm looking. Oh, cook, because he's a bill. I'd like that. It's like, a pinter is, send you a trade offer. It's like, well, how.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Delete. Where do I? How obnoxious is this going to be? The trade offers of nauseous is. God bless you. Back to me, Dean. We have a, no, every, every, every week. week there's an injury report for teams because mostly gambling but also because you want to
Starting point is 00:59:16 it would be nice to have that before the christian mccarthy injury report that's drawn some heat never seen this before there's a foot shoulder ankle wrist knee shown or fun uh other jury duty that's brandon aubrey the kicker for the cowboys missing practice for jury duty jerry juddy's jerry judy i thought he played for claifor jerry did he was working with the owner Jared. That's called in for a real. Cowboys were trying to get him out because he's, if not the best,
Starting point is 00:59:48 one of the top two or three kickers in the league. Jerry said, oh, we got to get you out of this. I'm a citizen. This is just what I do. It's debt to society. It's right.
Starting point is 00:59:59 It's a terrible thing. You fucking idiot. You're our kicker. We're coming off a buy. We need a goddamn win. Hope you. Ed was. I got the media all over my ass.
Starting point is 01:00:09 You go of jury duty. Your goddamn head was. in it. Diablo sandwich. So yeah, that's, you know what, Ryan? That's crazy stuff right there. Jury duty. Oh, crazy. Man, I can't believe it. I don't know what kind of case it is. Yeah, I don't know. Hopefully it's not sticky. Because then you know what they got to do. They got to do some sequestering. You don't want it hung jury. No. I would take them a lot of time. And you'd be pissed off. If you take, you got to go, you go through all that and then the jury gets hung. Well, what was this? What was? Oh, we just wasted all the time. This is kind of for nothing.
Starting point is 01:00:41 at square one, D. Oh, is that good for the defendant? I mean, I'd better than mean, I'm guilty. Do they hang people in Texas still? I don't think so. Probably on the ballot this year. I think they do, but I don't think you. Yeah, maybe that's why he's there.
Starting point is 01:00:57 If you missed it, Pat Mahomes, not the favorite to win MVP, but why is team six and O, Dean? And what the hell's seven touchdowns, eight picks? What? There's six and oh. Imagine the guy's playing well. You talk about.
Starting point is 01:01:11 personnel and scheme and because they have not looked great. No, every game you're like, eh. Mahomes has avert your eyes, but they got it done somehow. Six and all. Find ways to do it. Jerks. No, it's the same as before. Andy Reid.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Yeah. Coaching matters. Tom Brady. It's Bill Bill. It's not Randy Reed. It's Andy Reid. He's good. He knows what he's doing.
Starting point is 01:01:36 Who's Randy Reed? Well, you can't trust Randy. That's my point. What about Tara Reid? Remember her? Yes. She kind of spun off, though. She on Baywatch?
Starting point is 01:01:46 L.A. No. Don't think so. She'd fit in on Baywatch? She'd have fit in, yeah. Blonde and then got into the darts on the wild turkey. Really? Some of those Baywatch girls did, though.
Starting point is 01:02:00 The Clippers got a brand new arena just for basketball. What do we call? I don't know. Event center, stadium. Stadium. Yeah, it's a structure. It's a multi-sport. complex.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Billions and billions and billions. Now, there's lots of little features about this. Remember when the Atlanta Falcons opened, what is it, Mercedes-Benz? They're huge one and it had that ring. So rather than a jump-or-tron in the middle, it's just a ring, no more where you're sitting, you look across into the ring. This has got that in an event center, which is super fancy. And they have this thing called the wall, which is a super steep area behind one of the hoops,
Starting point is 01:02:33 which is essentially standing room right behind one of the nets where the craziest fans go. And so Steve Ballmer, who's an insane certified human, certified insane human and massively wealthy very excited about his new rink and he's again weird funny hilarious loves his clippers let's go here games going crazy ah let's go clippers resonating or you know he's not our guy whatever you can see what the view is of the scoreboard yeah there is just no bad place this is it man we've been working on this for nine years but i can just hear going. Food,
Starting point is 01:03:12 Proofers, the building to rough. The ball goes up. Boom. We're telling the story to everybody of what's going on up on this scoreboard.
Starting point is 01:03:20 Boom. We get a little bit of a lead. Boom. The other side comes back. Our fans get into it. They help propel our guys and boom. Clips win.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Game one. He's got the same drug dealers as John Gruden. That's all I know. That's awesome. That man is worth over $150 billion. You've got to have
Starting point is 01:03:38 the energy, Dean. Man, Don't hang holding you back. Remember what curse used to tell you could be that guy if you'd listen to Kersh. That's not an energy. You got to have energy, Dean. Bring the energy.
Starting point is 01:03:49 God, almighty. You know what I remember him saying? Right. Energy. Because Microsoft, right? That was where he made his money. Technology.
Starting point is 01:03:58 Not Kirsch. But the input. Definitely not curse. Not curse. Yeah. But they, you know what? I'll jump in because we don't need to talk.
Starting point is 01:04:10 about the Intuit Dome twice. Yeah, yeah, I know. Because I was, he was researching too. It's amazing. It's nuts. He went, they visited over 100 arenas worldwide,
Starting point is 01:04:22 nine years to put it together. That halo thing. How many times could we have done? I mean, Jesus. Nine times. Amazing how often it's come up today. It does.
Starting point is 01:04:31 It's wild. It is. There's the wall. And look at this thing. The ring. They call it, they call it the halo. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:38 It's dual-sided. So it's not like you're just seeing it. Really? So the nosebleeds look on the outside. And if you're down low, you look up into the inside. Is it backwards? It's not backwards.
Starting point is 01:04:47 No, there's two sides to it. They have the exact same as the Atlanta one, which was the first NFL stadium to have it. They have a bunch of t-shirt cannons on the top of the thing that can hit. They made sure can hit every seat in the building. That is, I like that because some seats are no good for getting the t-shirt.
Starting point is 01:05:01 Every seat can, and there's the wall, which is 51 rows, no suites. There's a, there's a small kind of a, an aisle where you can walk by. But he wanted no
Starting point is 01:05:14 disturbance to a wall of fans. You have to have a season pass, can't sell the tickets. It's hardcore. You can't wear the other teams jerseys. They'll make you change. You have to buy it through the Clippers fan. Blah, blah, blah. You don't have your pass.
Starting point is 01:05:27 You don't get in. Can't sell them. And they're the hardcores right there. Two billion dollar arena. Now this is great. James Dolan, who's the Knicks owner. Buster. Filed a lawsuit to stop the arena's
Starting point is 01:05:39 construction because he owns the Great Western Forum. Also is part of the group that owns the sphere in Vegas, owns Madison Square Garden. He's like, I got the form. I don't need you building this. Better than this Intuit dome within five miles of my. So he sued him. So what do you do when you're a billionaire and you've got F you money?
Starting point is 01:05:58 Pay them and build it anyway. I'm just going to buy the forum off of you. Here's $400 million in cash. bought the forum to get rid of Dolan and legal issue. Go away, you investor. What is it going to cost?
Starting point is 01:06:14 It's going to be like 400 million. Do you take cash? Like, holy shit. Can I e-transfer that much? Or what do I do? Do you have PayPal? They signed a 23-year naming rights deal with Induit worth 500 million.
Starting point is 01:06:26 Look at the screen. The arena has 1160 toilets, three times more than the average NBA. It's one toilet for every 15 seems. Come on, Flames Arena. it does feel like one of those things if dumb guys like us, well, what do you want?
Starting point is 01:06:40 Well, I'm going to need some shitters. For sure. How big is the screen? You're going to be bigger. Bigger. Bigger. It's the biggest in the world. Bigger.
Starting point is 01:06:45 And T-shirt cannons that can hit it. Every seat. Sir, you're a lunatic. You can, they've got the facial recognition for your con, for your concessions. You walk in and just walk in. Just walk in.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Take what you want. They spent millions to upgrade the traffic control. So it's, Easy to get it. They've even dealt with the roadways. Yeah. Yeah, 51 rows of uninterrupted seating from floor to ceiling. And, yeah, double-sided 360-degree scoreboard.
Starting point is 01:07:23 And all the seats are heated with USB charging ports. And they have seated heats. Yeah. And they have like a controller, like almost like an Xbox or whatever controller. So you can play games during. stoppages and vote. Oh, so yeah. Like, hey, yeah. It's the powerboat race.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Is it the green boat or the red boat? You got to pick one. There's a little thing on your. That was this thing. He said, I don't want people standing in line for a shitter. And I don't, stay in your seats in the suites. In the suites. As soon as the game's on, the TV's shut off. Amazing. Get out there and watch. You're here for the. You're here to watch the game. Get out there and watch.
Starting point is 01:07:59 So this is basically a preview of the new saddle alone, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. 1,100. No expense spared? I read something else. I think they estimated five to six kitchens is what the norm is. For a facility. For a facility like that,
Starting point is 01:08:15 for the different types. I have like 30 kitchens. Well, I like variety. This is great. When you're a billionaire, I've got 152. This is going to cost you two billion.
Starting point is 01:08:26 Oh, is it? He's 15 to 18% of a trillionaire. Like, billionaire kind of feels light. That's not doing them justice. Like, holy cow. So I think,
Starting point is 01:08:36 I think I think it's cool. All because of the curse's advice. Yeah. Energy. And people take runs out of this guy. You know what? He loves his team and he wants to do everything they can. They even have when the visiting team walks in, they have the digital boards that put their logos and shit up.
Starting point is 01:08:52 They have unmatched in the dressing room. They have the whole spas, the whole thing. With technology. They don't have to jump in the lake. Yeah. For the colds up. So when they come, this is amazing. Don't want to leave.
Starting point is 01:09:06 far locker rooms like this. What's the home locker room like? It's pretty cool. I was actually thinking about this. That's why Kauai left Toronto because he wanted to be a part of this thing. If you were a player, when are they going to start adding homes? Homes?
Starting point is 01:09:23 Right to the. Well, they got in Edmonton, the hotel's attached to the rink, kind of. So if you're there from the trade deadline on, you probably just live there. I'm talking about, you don't need to buy a house.
Starting point is 01:09:34 There's a house. walk up. Yeah, it's right there. I would think you would encourage people to not live at war. Like if the flames, if Murray bought that hill behind the dome there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Built all the fellows some shacks. A whole team, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Who's driving? Don't have to drive. Party at whose house today. These stairs. The worst seat at that rink or whatever you want to call at that arena compared to the, what, jobbing.com, whatever it is, where the Clippers used to play. worst seat to worst seat, 55 feet closer at this new place. So no matter what it is.
Starting point is 01:10:09 Is that what crypto is now? Worst is there? Yeah, because it went to crypto. Is it crypto? In downtown LA, yeah. You see Staples before that. Yeah. So the worst seat at Staples Center.
Starting point is 01:10:19 Yeah. 55 feet closer to the action. Well, and we're seeing that a bunch. Brooklyn and in Salt Lake, you have basketball specific rinks. and what happens we put hockey in? Ah, it's too tight. We can't see one of the nets. So when you're just an NBA one, you can make it tighter than Staples slash crypto, which has to be everything for everyone and can't be as tight. True. To each.
Starting point is 01:10:44 Looks like somebody landed. I've got a roaming notification. Ryan, back to you. Yeah. Love the dome there, whatever they're calling that thing, the Intuit Dome thing. Stadium. In place. Had some soccer, some footy yesterday, not only a big day in Champions League, but also the CPL semi quarter sort of final. The four versus five match.
Starting point is 01:11:05 York ends Pacific season. They'll go to Athletico, Ottawa this weekend. And the big one coming up this weekend. Saw a few of the fellas yesterday, two members of the team. Cavary goes to Hamilton this weekend to play Forge winner, host the final. Loser will host the winner of that quarterfinal between Athletico and York. They're feeling good. It's a long year, but they're ready to go kick some ass in Hamilton.
Starting point is 01:11:30 a year they play once in a year. You guys just contradicted each other there. Well, it's a long year. They're not busy. I thought like you got the season is long. It's not long because they drag it out. It's true. Play more.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Maybe just play like 30 days in a row and then have the season over a month. You go. And the finals is going to be on TV, which is kind of cool. CBC sports can carry that. It's not been easy to find the product on the cables. But there it is. November 9, your final. Let's hope that one's a cavalry, and it is...
Starting point is 01:12:01 Nine times. And cold, and whichever group of jerks comes in gets their asses handed them by the cab. Yeah. Yeah. Finally, we've reinvented the Pind Report. Too much negativity. The wheel.
Starting point is 01:12:15 Surprisingly, of all people, the negativity coming from Dean about the content of the Pind Report. And we do take feedback here, and I'm open to feedback. Ret, I know you've been making suggestions. So moving forth, here's a suggestion for the Pindraport. reports. Fat guy singing, bring back the snakes and Aussies. Thank you, Carl. Beat it, Carl. You're duster.
Starting point is 01:12:39 It's Carl, it's Carl Lindrossiger. Yep. Carl Alsner, good guy. Carl Dikos. So some guy named Carl sends you a message and that's, that's the Trump card. No, that was one that got sent to Jack. It was in the comments. That was in the comments of last show. Oh. I left about it because we were singing yesterday. Were we singing? You wanted snakes.
Starting point is 01:13:00 We said be singing like a week straight. I don't remember you. Fuck off, Carl. Yeah, that's your Pinder Report. Brought to you by Village Honda. Huge selection of used vehicles pre-owned, in fact. All makes all models, all budgets. Over 90 on site access to more than 500 more inside.
Starting point is 01:13:14 The dealership group, it is why Village Honda is your one-stop automotive destination in Calgary. There weren't the trip. Village Honda, Northwest Automah. Yeah. Isn't there a Rob Kerr, FU, something earlier? Yeah, that's Randy. Hey, Pat. Yeah, that was a...
Starting point is 01:13:30 That's Randy. Hey, Pat, fuck up. Yeah, bring back Ron. Not nice. Randy was, yeah, in a mood. Not nice. I'm guessing the flames lost that night. The total of the calls really change when that happens.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Because you know what? You can't just take when people message, it's like, oh, well, this is a normal person. This is a very nice message. It's a rational human for sure. Like, I grabbed a couple of things. Well, I grabbed the one off of, I guess somebody on Twitter or whatever. Wanted people that they were going to celebrate with great news. that a family member had been sick,
Starting point is 01:14:04 but they had, you know, so you go and, because you expect people, that's great. That's heartwarming. That's tremendous. But this is, this is for people like Carl, this is what happens when guys like Carl get involved. My aunt woke up from a 13 year coma. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:14:19 She's missed Zero Sabres playoff games. Oh, my God. I mean, Oh, my God. That is so epic. 13 years. Guys, we didn't work together 13 years ago. For Brooke,
Starting point is 01:14:38 Bruch's got the blue check mark. I guess he can just pay for that. And if you all from the guys of Barnburner. Welcome back. That's great for your aunt. Welcome back, Auntie. Your aunt. 13 years is a long time.
Starting point is 01:14:51 That doesn't seem real. And I didn't fact check the Sabres thing, but it was beyond the fact. It's just that's kind of in poor taste. Ret, when was your last season? You got a paycheck in the NHTS? Okay, so not quite. Joel McGillowell was captain in the flames when
Starting point is 01:15:06 went into that. Twittering. Not sure. We'll do our football picks tomorrow. Yes. But is it still looking like Tua? We'll be back for the Dolphins. They're tracking.
Starting point is 01:15:20 And Tyreek held a press conference who said, we back, baby. We're back in business. I would have, too. I didn't know. They're also playing the Cardinals. And guess what game comes out today or is out? Cod.
Starting point is 01:15:34 Yeah, Cod. And Kyler's. And so he was it. Before he got his duty, Colo duty, it's all good. It's a great. Shoot him up. Fish. I don't steal the videos.
Starting point is 01:15:44 Boom Scott. But essentially, he was sort of outed as a cod addict right around the time he needed the contract extension. The team was kind of like, well, I wish you had those weird stipulations. Yeah, we would pay, Kyler, but I don't know. Doesn't do a lot of game film. And then they kind of looked around and we're like, it's actually way better than anyone else we've got. And now he's actually a poster boy.
Starting point is 01:16:03 and a paid spokesman for God. So they've got him kneeling on the sideline. That's right. So yeah, Tyree, you, um, exciting. Yeah, he was excited. Because if you are in fantasy football and you've had Tyreek or if you've had Jalen Waddle or if you've had any of the members of the offense, it's been a rough go.
Starting point is 01:16:24 So the hope is with Tuoback, all of them will spring back to life. Tyreek is confident. We're back, baby. strike up the fucking band we're back start me this week baby let's go do you have tyriek no he's a dolphin can't stand the dolphins

Starting point is 01:17:15 I mean, it's his decision to make, not ours. How about this? As somebody who appreciates this sort of thing, what if somebody figured they were going to tell you how to run your life? Somebody that had maybe little to no affiliation. I wish I'd have had someone come into my life and say, if you just tidied it up now I'm not talking 50%
Starting point is 01:17:39 I'm talking 10 you can really extend things and feel better about yourself I'm here to tell you what I was going to say are you sure that there wasn't or did you just tell them to beat it?

Starting point is 01:19:11 Pinder keeps stringing like a fish. He'll need to wear a guardian cap. Well, yeah. I'd love it. Maybe you need somebody to just step in and have a talk with you. What do they call that? Intervention. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:26 Great show. This is from Mark. At one point, Rhett mentioned a hip cover band. What was the name of that? band what are the chances b b could wood hold an event with them as a draw to the show i've thought about it for years uh but i'm just an idea guy so every year around stampede i'm like i should bring the strictly hip that's the name of the band out to calgary to play a couple shows because they can also do some country cover and they're exalante and if you do recall i believe it was about six to eight
Starting point is 01:20:00 stampedes ago, Rhett did open a honky talk with his pals. That's right. His worst wet country. Yes, it did. Yes, it did. Here's the other catch to that question is when I marry my next wife, they played at my first wedding. Just as a tradition, I will include them.
Starting point is 01:20:17 I'll invite them back. Jeremy Hoyle and the boys. So you're more loyal to the band. What the hell are you talking about your second wife? We'll pass the boot around and pay the band. Is that what you do? Yes. Pass the boot around.
Starting point is 01:20:33 Wasn't an empty bottle of whiskey? You'd roll up some 20s into? Whatever. You got to smash it. You all right? Did you know, I ran a honky talk on Stan Pete? Did you have to tinkle? He'd pick the most interactive segment of the show to go and...
Starting point is 01:20:46 Yeah, I really had to tinkle. Timings everything. This is from Russ. I was having a conversation with my two teenage daughters. I made a reference of kryptonite, blank stares, and crickets. It was at that moment I realized. I had failed them. I started to think,
Starting point is 01:21:03 what else have I missed? So far on the watch list is Superman, Rocky, and Dumb and Dumber. Jack, have you seen the original Superman? I think I have,
Starting point is 01:21:12 but I don't remember it. That's from Russ. He's asking, if I've seen it? Yes, I have. I believe so. Keep the other ones too,
Starting point is 01:21:19 because there's an important one in there that we need to have ever seen. And then he's asking, fellas, what old school movies would you recommend? That's from Russ and the deer go bill. Can I say this? Our version of old school
Starting point is 01:21:30 is really old school. Yeah, dumb and dumber is new school. Like to suggest that's old school. Yeah, that was, that's in my regular rotation. Jack, please tell me you've seen dumb and dumber. Like if, yeah, those aren't that old. Okay, I was getting worried.
Starting point is 01:21:45 94. So Tommy Boyd be of that era. Wayne's World Tommy Boy, that's sort of like, if you're worried about your daughters, being brought up right, those are good ones to throw in there. I think if it is, movies where people are going to have references.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Commando. I was thinking about having the kids watch Commando. Three boys to get wound up. Yeah, yeah. Because there's comedies and then there's the war movies. But then there's just others that are kind of iconic. Shawshank redemption is people are going to be referencing Shawshank or Titanic, whatever.
Starting point is 01:22:21 Just a great show. So I don't know. I think he was going. Then there's their slap shot. Oh. What age is. appropriate to start integrating Slapshot into your...
Starting point is 01:22:34 Wonderful lady. 45. It's fairly off. You had to grow up without a phone. Otherwise you're going to be offended by this. It's so awesome. That might be just make sure it's maybe not the first time the kid has ever heard the C-bomb.
Starting point is 01:22:50 Yeah. When they're at the... They have to be ready for it. At the bar, I have to soap on. And now, that being said, we are overprotective of our children. They can handle more than we think. I've mentioned it before. I was on a flight and tried watch Blazing Saddles again. I couldn't get three minutes in. I was like, holy, how did they make this? You can't say any of this stuff. No, no. Oh, that blankety blank hit me with a shovel. You can't do it.
Starting point is 01:23:15 No, you can't. No, you cannot do it. Um, yeah, Blazing Saddles. I wouldn't put that on this list. No, I would not. That's going to scare you. Yeah. It's going to scar your kids. Rocky is an old movie for sure. Is it any good? Rudy. Rudy. Rudy. one you got to see. Yeah, it's a great underdog tail. Yeah, yeah. I don't have daughters, so I don't know what to watch. Russ.
Starting point is 01:23:40 What's the best of those war movies? Like there's full metal, I guess that's more of her. Full metal jacket's a tough one for sure. Hamburger Hill. Yeah. I'm always confused. There's a few. I'm not sure if we helped out there.
Starting point is 01:23:57 No, I don't think. There's a few in that mix. A lot of movies, eh? A lot of movies. Yeah. What will happen is my kid will see something. in a movie and then be, oh, that's from Family Guy. Nope.
Starting point is 01:24:09 Family Guy did it because of the movie. That's a trickle-down, right? It's like, oh, because I saw it on Family Guy. Maybe that's the answer. Just let your kids watch Family Guy. They'll see the references and then when they get sprinkled in in their original form, they'll figure all that out. I have a video to go along with this one.
Starting point is 01:24:28 I have a video submission. A video submission. It's shush, dude. This is from George video of my kids. We were watching the game of Wolf's shootout win. We watched the game in the morning from Preston, England. No way. Cheers from George.

Starting point is 01:25:29 uh, great clips inbox from E. Ernest Elder. Do you take part in the Costco triple thread? The dog, the pizza slays, and the putteen. That's a heavy, heavy order.
Starting point is 01:25:41 No, that's, uh, it's gluttony. Yeah. That's going to put you deep into the couch that one. At that point, it just feels like you're just doing it because it's a good deal. I did that the one summer when I was supposed to be a professional athlete where it was, again, another one of those last days of eating what I want before I got real serious about my training. Right. That's the kind of thing that you'd go out. You'd be the protein from two different places and some hot dogs and some pizzas from some of your favorite establishments.

Starting point is 01:29:02 Guys can't lose. They're going 82 and O. I hate that guy, though. He is a loser. But I don't want to talk about him. Let's talk about something more positive. We don't need to talk about him. No. So you're in the desert? I'm in the desert right now, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:17 Just got out of the gym, taking care of the dog. No hockey games to go to here. I guess ASU can do that. Same rank, that's easy. Same rank, yeah, same rank, you know. Seats are both the same as far as available, but there's plenty available. But it's good. What are you guys doing?
Starting point is 01:29:36 Oh, we're good. Flames are on fire or they don't want that lottery pick up. No, we just rebuild stuff. We don't believe in it. It's already over. That's right. Do you think you still do the parade route where the stamp root is or where do you go down 17? What do you do?
Starting point is 01:29:50 Oh, yeah. I don't know. You probably have both. Why not? That's right. Just keep going until it gets dark. Not to get serious, but do you run into people at all that are upset that the coyotes are gone? There's a void in their life.
Starting point is 01:30:05 It's early in the season, I guess. It's the beautiful weather down there. It is. The Las Vegas nights are just taking. over the radio here too. It's all I hear on sports radio is night's hockey on whatever it is. I read that. I read the way. They're moving in.
Starting point is 01:30:20 I think Utah's trying to. You know, yeah. Not a ton, but yeah. I will say, honestly, there's a group of guys that I, like, there's a group of guys that got a little, most importantly, they've got cash. And I think they've already started like
Starting point is 01:30:41 the flirting. Yeah, but they know, I mean, that owner, obviously, the old guy's an idiot. He's gone. Like, he's not going to have anything to do with any of it. And they know they need to get a rank. And so, look, I got no, I mean, they also said, hey, would you want to be a part of it and help run it? I'm like, help run what? The social media department?
Starting point is 01:31:03 What do you want me to run? I don't get the game anymore. I can't run the D. I don't know what you want me to run. But, so, yeah, yeah, I don't know. I would think, honestly, though, gun to my. head, I bet you at 10 years from now, they're back. Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 01:31:17 Something's bad. It'll work down here. You just got to get it. I know it's easier said than done, but you just got to get a rig. It's a, it's a checklist of two. You need a non-shitty owner and a non-shitty facility. You get both those things that works in Phoenix, I believe. Location.
Starting point is 01:31:30 Yes, for sure. Location on a, yeah. I mean, yeah, that's part of it. The facility in Glendale is great. It's just in the wrong part of town. Yeah. It's just, yeah, it's right out there where all the massage parlors are. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:31:44 That's not where. See, that's why I didn't stay out there. That's why I started at the W. Distance yourself. Can't be affiliated. Can't be around that. Yeah. Quickly in and out of there.
Starting point is 01:31:57 Go on. So how did just with Carol, I was like, who do we know Carolina? Oh, my God. How did it come to be that you joined the Carolina hurricanes back in the day? Darrell couldn't wait to get rid of me. Jeez. That's actually kind of a lie.
Starting point is 01:32:12 I'll take that. back. I had a really, I'll take that back. I think Daryl liked me. The year after we went to the finals, the next year was the full year lockout. So I headed there right after Rhett and I got wasted at the Flames golf tournament, greatest golf tournament to kick off a season ever. As you know, Rhett knew, I didn't know, I'm young. I don't have anything to do with the union. I know I've told this story before. Long story short, I'm taking this all serious like the first three holes, thinking I'm going to be doing that bike test the next morning. The VO2. Yeah, the VO2, like where you're pushing those watts,
Starting point is 01:32:48 and I've worked out hard all summer. So my group's like, hey, you want to drink on the first hole? I'm like, no, no, I got testing, you know, testing in the morning. They're like, thought you guys aren't playing. I go, nah, I'm like, come on. I mean, no NHL hockey. That's not going to happen. And I think it was after my third hole, there was a Bacardi tent after my third hole.
Starting point is 01:33:07 And I walked in there, and there was three guys. Rhett for sure was there. And the other, I think it was Rhett, Stefanell, and maybe Robin Regier. The other two, but I know for a fact Rhett was there, and they are smashing Bacardi rum. And I'm sitting there, I'm like, first I'm like, oh, Rett's getting wasted.
Starting point is 01:33:26 I'm like, maybe I can find some ice time around here. But he's like, I go in and go, what are you guys doing? They're like, have a drink, Mike. The season's over. I'm like, really? They're like, yeah, here you go. And I think Wrette gave me a couple rums. I'm like, all right.
Starting point is 01:33:41 And so, and then that was, I don't remember the last nine holes. That's. But we had a good time. It's a hell of a bit time. Oh, but anyways, to answer your question, I get a little sidetrack. The next year after we went to the finals, I knew I needed to play. So I called, I thought I should be paid a little, you know, I'd been in the American League for a decent amount of time.
Starting point is 01:33:59 So I called Darrell, like, after being in Calgary, after that tournament for a couple weeks, I'm like, I got to get out of here. Like, this is not good for my career. I'm 25 years old. Like, I got to play somewhere. So I called Darrell and he's like, yeah, I got a spot for you in Lull. I'm like, well, you know, like I should be making like six figures. Like I'm a veteran.
Starting point is 01:34:17 Like he's like I'll pay you 50 grand, take it or leave it. If you don't like English or else, I'm like 50, 50 grand in Loll. Like after 10, that doesn't cover like I paid to play. Like that's not even covered my rent, my rental car out there. So went out there and I actually had a really, really good year. And good team with good team. Every team was good in the league except for spring. Springfield was awful.
Starting point is 01:34:41 The rest of the league was like good. The top six forwards and top three, four D were all in the NHL the next year, pretty much. And I had a really good year. And we split the team with Carolina. And so, you know, the flames weren't out there all that much just because it's so far. But the Keynes were there. Labuillette was there all the time. Rutherford was there.
Starting point is 01:35:00 And so at the end of the year, they traded for me. So, you know what? I'd say, you know, I got traded. A couple of trades probably didn't work out. I would say that ended up working out pretty good for the Carolina Hurricanes. They paid the minimum wage. They got three years, two and a half years of my service. They got a cup ring.
Starting point is 01:35:19 And it cost them a third or fourth round pick. Who I don't even know who the flames picked. It doesn't matter. You also have to build your brand, though. There's you. There's housecoats. That was the beginning of your persona around the league. I guess, yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:35 I mean, might have started in Calgary a little bit, but yeah. Yeah, the hurricanes help. But, yeah, so I'm grateful for my time in Carolina. I cheer for the Carolina hurricanes and the flames and the few guys that I still know that are playing. Yeah, I see they're having a tough time scoring these days. Flames might just spank them tonight, no? Do you guys want them to win?
Starting point is 01:35:56 Have we decided what way we want the flames to go yet? It's very confusing at the moment, to be honest with you. It is. Somebody asked. Go ahead, sorry. The shoes going to, whatever, something's going to fall off and they're not going to be as good for a long, you know, when they start to lose, it might just continue. Right. But you don't want to run on the parade, but you're also, you don't want to be negative.
Starting point is 01:36:20 Pretty flat the last two games and two overtimes. I know. I got asked about the game. Yeah. It's fun to win. Yeah, everybody loves winning. I know somebody asks me down here, hey, how about your flames? I'm like, yeah, they're cruising right for that 12th overall pitch.
Starting point is 01:36:35 Well, that's the shitty part. Is that I think the pieces were put in place to make sure we had a top 10 pick at least. And now we're like, come on, you guys. Do it right. Six games. It's fun. I haven't seen a whole lot of it. I'm assuming the guys are working hard.
Starting point is 01:36:50 They must be. I think they're having fun because it's the old underdog and we're actually doing it. Us against the world. F you. Yeah. You all you guys think we suck. Watch this. Yeah, like work ethic structure and the culture.
Starting point is 01:37:03 Like two years ago, we looked at this team under Daryl that people picked to win the cup and be better than Emmington and it was dysfunctional, whether that was one person's fault or everyone's fault or whatever reason didn't matter. They just didn't look like a group that liked being together. This is the exact opposite. They're cheering on these incredible, you know, like, is Justin Kirkland going to turn into the pumpkin at midnight or not? Who knows? But it's a fairy tale so far. Everyone's bought in. They love being around each other this year so far. Yeah. Everybody likes coming to the rank. There's something to be said for that. I mean, at the end of the day, I think it's the game of hockey. I mean, it is a game.
Starting point is 01:37:36 You're supposed to have fun doing it. You know, at least once in a while. It shouldn't be painful constantly. It doesn't need to remember. Two days a month, it's definitely not painful when you get your paycheck, no matter what. Those are guaranteed winter days. Oh, you're going to have two great days a month for sure. Pinder mentioned the house code.
Starting point is 01:37:55 We don't need to do all of this memory. But I'm trying to remember, how did that, was it just something that you decided to wear in the locker room? Because then fans were wearing it in the crowd, and they were, what was some point? It was pure, pure pressure. Well, it was a gift from the Carolina Hurricanes. I got a little pamphlet, you know, pick what you want.
Starting point is 01:38:12 You know, I was single living by myself. I mean, not much has changed. And, yeah. So I'm like looking at this thing. I'm like, what am I going to do with the barbecue set? I eat out all the time. I'm like, like a wine set. I'm like, what the hell am I going to do with a wine set?
Starting point is 01:38:31 So the only thing on there was like a house coat. So a couple months later, it came in, came to the rank. So I, like, put it on in, like, the little change room or whatever. And Glenn Wesley came in, and he's like, oh, Mike, you look great. I'm like, oh, really, Glenn? He's like, oh, yeah. He's like, you should get your numbers stitched on that. I'm like, that's a little forward.
Starting point is 01:38:51 Isn't Glenn, I was going to just take this thing home or I don't know. He goes, no, no, no, no. Get your numbers stitched on there and then wear it around the room. I'm like, all right. I mean, at this point, Glenn Wesley played like 1,400 games in the NHL. I've probably been around since 75. I'm like, hey man, this guy knows what he's talking about. So sure, Glenn, I'll do whatever you want.
Starting point is 01:39:09 And so I just took off from there. And I just would wear it during my real extenuous warmups when I'm drinking coffee. I do a couple high knees in it and then go put my gear on and go play. Did you do media in it? Did you wear it to media scrubs? Yeah, yeah, during the playoffs I did. Yeah, yeah, I did once it got going. And then, yeah, I'll never, I didn't really know what was going on in the stands too much.
Starting point is 01:39:31 And then my dad came down for a game. Might have been during the second round or something like that. Anyways, it doesn't matter. But he came down. And after the game, he's like, Mike, what the hell is going on around here? What do you mean? He's like, I'm walking around the concourse. And he goes, there's a bunch of life-sized cutouts of you in a bathrobe.
Starting point is 01:39:51 I'm like, yeah, my dad, look. They're looking for things to talk about around here. Don't look into it too much. So when you look back, do you think it was good? I just wanted was Wesley trying to make it take the piss out of you? He said, oh, no, Mike, you should definitely get your number embroidered on this. I mean, he's wearing it around all the time. You look great in it.
Starting point is 01:40:13 Feels like maybe he was having fun at your expense. I think so, yeah. I think there was some good, I don't think it was like he was being rude to me. Yeah, I mean, Jesus. What a real. That is rude looking, I will say that. I look skinny, though. I'll say that.
Starting point is 01:40:28 Yeah. So you were single in those days. say really yeah yeah those are the days i tell you what nc state college parties right there jes those are the days god i missed that i looked like an idiot but yeah glen was looking back glen was probably having some fun with me thanks glen they all worked out though in the end i've got a guy in the hall of fame now in the basement now but yeah i swear to god it was i they told me it was on display for one full year. You know, I think where they put the gear and stuff,
Starting point is 01:41:03 and then obviously they were probably lying to me. They probably had it up for a hot minute and then threw it in the basement. But yeah, anyways, I don't have anything else for the whole thing, so I'll take it. Well, you run that new franchise in Arizona for a couple decades. That will get you in there. Yeah, yeah. You guys, you guys, I'll keep you guys in mind. We're going to need a crew down here.
Starting point is 01:41:29 There you go. Let me know. I'll be looking to do some iron. Yeah. Yeah, well, the co. We'll do a couple of last shows. So we, the guys, I, I dig Rod Brindamore. You see him in the room with the guys.
Starting point is 01:41:42 A great coach. He was a teammate of yours, lifts the cup, cap, and that whole thing. It seems like he's the same guy now as he was then. What about any, any tales? This is, here, plays the whole game, plays 25 minutes, then is throwing friggin around for an hour in the wait room after the game. Like, he's, he's a maniac. right? He's a maniac.
Starting point is 01:42:02 Like, I had heard stories about him from his Notre Dame days and then playing with him. Yeah, I mean, he was a maniac. I mean, I would say he's the exact same person, except now that he's a coach, he talks way more. Like, you can tell how he's kind of jumpy and, like, I don't think it's, like, supernatural for Rod to, like, get up in front of people and speak and stuff. Like, I don't, like, as a cap, as a player, I mean, maybe he just didn't talk to me. I don't know. but I was in the room after games. Obviously, I was around him a lot, and he was quiet.
Starting point is 01:42:34 He was one of those guys that, like, led by example. But, yeah, it'd be like he'd play a game, you know, and he was playing 25, like you said, 25 minutes, playing hard minutes too. Like, he played in both ends of the ice. And, you know, after the game, it was like, it was a guarantee he'd be, like, pumping an insane amount of iron and then get on those, like, rude, like, those stationary bikes. I can't remember the name of them, but they were like dark or like light brown and like kind of made a noise. It was just like they were painful to ride.
Starting point is 01:43:07 Like the fan is the front wheel? Like one of those. It wasn't the fan. I can't remember. It was like light brown. It wasn't the fan one. But it was like, like just peddling the thing was awful. The resistance.
Starting point is 01:43:21 I think it was the Sybex. Yeah. You go 900, 1200, 1,500, 1, 1,800, 1,000, 2100. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:27 Yeah. distance. There was nothing. He turned that dial and it goes from zero to a thousand and like, and he's just grinding on that thing for, can't remember he was like 45 minutes. Oh. Oh, yeah. After every home game, every home game he was in there, it's crushed. You got to get that out. Yeah, he was, I'll tell you what, he was ripped. I mean, you could put him on a, I mean, he probably still is not very, I like calling him chunky when I, he actually still keeps in touch with me, which I actually appreciate. Like, of all the guys, I thought
Starting point is 01:43:59 he'd gas me, but he's actually a guy keeping touch with very regularly. I like calling him chunky. It makes me laugh. His one thing is one little vice. You know, he ate very healthy. Like, he'd have a beer once in a while, but, like, you know, Rett's probably not calling him on a Saturday night.
Starting point is 01:44:15 I'll put it like that. And, uh... In a business relationship. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I didn't see, I didn't see Rod too much. He wasn't at the NC St. He was gone at the college parties that I was at. Rod had some better things to do,
Starting point is 01:44:30 but his one vice was he loved those red vines. You know, like the Twizzlers? Yes. Oh, yeah. So I had, you know, I'd come, obviously for the first, like, year I was there. I didn't say anything to him. But like, and he kind of try and hide it a little bit,
Starting point is 01:44:46 but he would just vacuum those things back. So after I got to know him a little bit, then I started. So, like, every once in a while, I'll just, that's what I call him. how those red vines going down. Why didn't that? The little things for me. Why did he go to Notre Dame, Saskatchewa?
Starting point is 01:45:02 Like, what was that, Wilcox? Yeah. Good question. Why, I'm not sure. I'm sure it was just purely sport-related. Oh. There's stories about him there, too, like, because the dean was, um, was the dad of a guy, a couple brothers that I played, or I don't know if he's the dean back then,
Starting point is 01:45:20 but he was, he was a teacher at the school and there's all kinds of stories about them having a, he'd have to, like, lock him out of the weight room there. I was going to say, he's probably just been one of those all in guys right from the beginning. So it's a school in the middle of nowhere, but all we do is play hockey. And okay, I'm in. Yeah. Play hockey. He would go to school and he would
Starting point is 01:45:36 lift weights. And to the point, like, I heard it from a few people where they would, like, like, legitimately lock him out of the gym. So as he'd go back to his dorm room and he'd, like, fill up, like, like, milk jugs or water jugs or whatever. That's what I is.
Starting point is 01:45:53 too. He's like, taking it from the chair, like doing curls and stuff. I don't know what the hell he was doing. I mean, whatever it was worked, obviously. But yeah, he's an animal. So you've sort of set some roots here. You used to be the man that owned nothing and traveled to wherever you wanted at any moment.
Starting point is 01:46:09 Now I hear you have a dog. Like, you're notpping back to Calgary much lately. What the hell's going on? We miss you up here. Yeah, I miss you guys, too. Thank you for saying that. Yeah, I mean, I got some things to figure out. I mean, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:46:22 You know what I mean? I love the dog. The dog's great. I got all. Yeah, no, I didn't explain any of it. This thing isn't going to air in Arizona, is it? No, next topic. All right.
Starting point is 01:46:33 Yeah, let's just say I have some things to figure out. All right. Yeah. There's lots of thoughts going through my mind. Are you, uh, constantly. I'm trying to remember because you would go on the annual golf trip. Is that still a thing? The big, uh, the Swedes against, yeah, you had the Ryder Cup or the
Starting point is 01:46:50 North Carolina. COVID killed that, too. Oh, come on. You can bring that back. It's Dan Cleary's show and Sean Horcough, sorry. Yeah, I think we're going to try, I think this summer, just with four guys just to see. But, you know, once you miss something, you know, they canceled our trip. It's true.
Starting point is 01:47:08 It's true. And then all of a sudden it's like, well, I have a headache to get going. So are you still going to the Ken Holland annual one? Because that's the most psycho golf trip I've ever heard you talk about. Because you've got a bunch of these. You've got all kinds of different guys trips. but like tips no gimmies have to walk no cards 10 rounds in seven days band and dunes i remember you're like i don't want to look at a golf club for two months i hate the sport until next year
Starting point is 01:47:34 yeah ken's still doing it now that he's retired he's just sent me an email today and he's a member at the golf course i'm at here so now he's like you know we've done this whisper rock thing for the last couple years it's like three and a half days of golf 36 a day except for the half day and yeah it's like two-man best ball. One ball count. So if your partner's doing better, like if you're out of the hole, you're out of the hole. That's fine. Then it's all in your partner. The counting ball has to go in the hole. I've been telling him this because like at some places like band and dudes. Now they just let us get away with it because we're bringing in a quarter million bucks or whatever. But you know, when you call them all in and you got 24 guys, but like max net quadruple on a hole. Like that is rude. I've been like begging them. I'm like, hey, Ken, can we do like, can we like, like, And that double, that double is plenty. But he doesn't listen to anything, I have to say. But yeah, still doing that. I think this year, he's got like three going on down here.
Starting point is 01:48:30 He's like, hey, Mike, I'm coming down here, here and here. I'm going to need you to go up and how many guys you want. Go, Ken, I'll give you one. He's a nut. He can't get enough golf. Can't get enough golf. Yeah, he loves it. But I think we're going back to Europe this summer.
Starting point is 01:48:44 So it'll be interesting to see, I mean, I love Ken. He's a good dude. Even though he screwed me in Detroit, I still love him. He's a good guy. I mean, I should hate him. I've told him this right to his face. I'm like, I don't even know why I'm on these golf trips. I'm like, I shouldn't want nothing to do with you, but he is a good dude.
Starting point is 01:49:01 So it'll be interesting to see he'll be doing something next year. I told him he's like, oh, I'm just going to relax. I'm like, you're going to relax. I'm like, you're going to come down here sometime this winter. Three weeks into it, everybody at Whisperock's going to hate you because you're taking too many strokes and you're playing from tease you shouldn't and you won't pick your ball up. I'm like, they're all going to hate you and you're going to want to leave. So he'll be doing something.
Starting point is 01:49:25 I mean, is he like consulting for the NHL right now, just getting another paycheck? He's Biden's time. He wants one of those cushy president gigs or a VP with a buddy or something. That's cool. No, you know what? I think I thought that too. He'll be a GM, I bet. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:49:40 So you should, he'd like to. So you should hate Kenny Holland. Is that similar to how maybe James Neal should hate you after you gave him that advice to come to Calgary? Hey, I told James The first thing I told James I go, do you want to play in Canada? His first immediate, no. I go, James, there's your answer.
Starting point is 01:49:59 So he didn't know Calgary's in Canada? What the fuck, Jamie? Get him a blow? I literally, I'm like, James. I'm like, you love it in Vegas. Like you're from Canada. You know what goes on it. Do you want to play in Canada?
Starting point is 01:50:11 No. And the flames. I mean, end the story. And then Tre Living came over the top with just an office. offer that next day I knew. I didn't think he was coming. Next thing I know it's signed. I'm like, oh, God. Please go well, James Senate. Yeah. What well for him? Yeah, they did preseason in China. I think by the time they're flying home
Starting point is 01:50:31 from preseason in China, it already had not gone well and he was off Johnny's line. So that's how it went through. Yeah, I wouldn't say him and Bill Peters got along too great. No. I wouldn't, no. No, players and coaches. I hear relationships can be tough. Yeah, they can. They can be good, too. But yeah, they can be tough. Michael, short notice, we appreciate you to jumping on here today. Any excuse we can use to get you on is a good, we'll take. More common for sure. Well, just let me know, fellas.
Starting point is 01:50:59 What kind of dog? What are you doing with the dog? What do we got for a dog? We got an Irish doodle. So it's an Irish setter and a poodle mix. No shedding? Henry, no shedding. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:12 I wanted to rescue a dog, but it wasn't my decision. but I will say he is a good boy. This thing runs my show, though. I've never had like a puppy. Dummy. I don't play that much golf anymore. I feel like I'm slammed. Like,
Starting point is 01:51:27 I know I'm not. Like, I don't have kids. I'm like, I get it. But I've lived my entire life just taking care of me and I can care less about anybody else. Really?
Starting point is 01:51:35 This dog runs my show. Just find someone, you know, drop it off at his house and then never pick it up. Work for it. That would break my heart, though. I do love the little.
Starting point is 01:51:44 You don't have a heart. It's hard. I got a heart for dogs. I found that out. Thanks, Michael. All right. See you guys. Thanks for having me.

You think he picked the half-poodle, non-shed breed?
Starting point is 01:52:35 Doesn't sound like. Doesn't feel like it. The exact conversation I've had for two years. Sure would like a rescue. And the thing about that is, I mean, no kids, kind of, it's, it's, Ultimate freedom for Mike for years. Decades, life. Puppies are hard for everyone.
Starting point is 01:52:52 You could have kids. You could have a dog, dogs your whole life. Jesus, that would be a shock to his system. Oh my God, I got to let it out. It eats twice a day. I got to put food out for this dog.
Starting point is 01:53:05 I just go from the golf course to the airport. Yeah. Ah, good old Mikey. Miss him. used to be around a bunch. Yeah, he's a good boy. Is he still doing that show? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 01:53:21 Well, very, very occasional guest, right? It's not like a regimented schedule. Well, no, he does a thing with, uh, with Savalski. The goal. Yeah. Someone was going to be the host of that show, but there was a conflict.
Starting point is 01:53:36 Not of my business. Should have done that one. Don't have to less as much to be fair. A lot of live shows on that one. Time for, uh, about three, The world's largest sports betting platform.

Starting point is 01:54:03 Yeah. So there's multiple NHL games tonight. There was only one last night. There was no NFL games last night. And tonight. That changes it. So tonight. What do you want?
Starting point is 01:54:14 What are you want? I got some flames. Let's go. Let's do it. Let's do it. Who do we love here, friends? Well, there's your game lines. So if you're just curious,
Starting point is 01:54:21 Keynes on the money line minus 180, flames plus 150, the over-under set for six. And yeah, the puck line number is interesting. Carolina minus one and a half. Okay. Interesting flames plus one and a half,
Starting point is 01:54:32 not much value there. I like your Conner's area gets a point bet, plus 110 for over half a point. And Andrezmanko's been solid, but what, just the one goal? One goal. He's ready for another, boys.
Starting point is 01:54:45 the plus 260 is an implied probability of around 25%. He's scoring a quarter of your games, that's 20 goal pace. He's better than that. He's better than a 20 goal guy. Let's jump on that number. If it stays at that number all year, we're going to keep betting it.
Starting point is 01:54:57 You know what? Sorry, Jack, throw that up. I might, out of all that there, I feel under a total of six goals. I felt under in the Penguins game, and it looked great until it didn't. I'm going to say under the six there for this matchup tonight.
Starting point is 01:55:13 I'm with you. Goaltending has been good. Both teams right now. The goal scoring has gone down a little bit. Both elite defensive teams, seventh and fifth in the league in terms of goals against so far. Very early. I saw a stat.
Starting point is 01:55:28 At bet 365. Whatever the sport, whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at bet 365. The app is great. Play along. Games already started. Get in there.
Starting point is 01:55:36 And then, of course, there's the football tonight as well. The Fuzballs. Vikings and the Rams. It's only three for the football. Vikings and the Rams tried their hearts to lose to the Raiders last week. Meanwhile, the Vikings almost beat Detroit. It does feel odd, but you got Cooper Cup theoretically returning for the Rams that would
Starting point is 01:55:57 help Stafford a ton. Sure. Kyrin scored in nine straight games with a touchdown. That's wild. I can ask for it. Nine times. It is a lot. It's been so many.
Starting point is 01:56:14 It feels kind of like, digging, leaning into it. It feels like it's kind of been organic and it's just been coming up. just been coming up. Last in the league for hits, I think I saw the Carolina Hurricanes. Two ways to look at that. So some rinks, the hits not a hit.
Starting point is 01:56:32 It's super subjective. And so certain barns teams get credit for way more hits than they do on the road. And you're like, that's a bullshit barn. I don't know that's the case with or without some of the other teams in there. If Carolina's the hardest place to get credit for a hit. The other thing is if you have the puck all night,
Starting point is 01:56:46 how many hits do you get when you have the puck? They are a good possession team typically. So I don't know if that means much. I'm looking forward to the game. Yeah. Going? No. I got responsibilities.
Starting point is 01:57:00 Thursdays. I'm a very busy guy. Very busy. Cammy and I got Afterburner? Nice. Yeah. Excited? Jacko, who's producing?
