Oh, buddies, it's the Friday edition of Barn Burner here on the YouTube's. And in your earholes, wherever you choose to listen today, welcome to the Tower, Chrysler Studios, Tower Chrysler. They sell Dodge, they sell Jeep, they sell RAM, they sell Chrysler. Maybe you want, do you want a minivan? Do you want a four-wheel drive? Do you want a big, strong, reliable sport utility vehicle? Do you want a Jeep that you can take the top off of and bomb around and have a great summer in, reliability, and fun? That's all they offer at Tower Chrysner.

The Hellcat thing? What was that? I don't want to lose. The Hellcat. It'll handle the Hellcat. It'll stir your drink. Yeah, it'll stir your drink. Then there's the demon. It's a lot of horsepower.

It's a lot of horsepower. It's a lot of horsepower. Just talk to search. He'll straighten you out on the Hellcat stuff. He will. Yeah. He won't eat sugar. but he'll sell you one hell of a

one hell of a vehicle over a car driver. He can tell let me see if I got the latest update. State Club? He's trying to put my my concerns at ease. He's like, I don't know, don't worry, even though I am off the, he's on

I don't want to brag for search, you know, but he's down, let's just say he's down a few LBs. 18. Holy 18. I need to enjoy this because he's off the sugar. and he's off apparently the red meat. He claims to be off the sugar. Claims.

Debatable. Yeah. He says, steak club. Now, steak club every once a week. Everyone at they have their, it's an elite group. You talk about VIPs. It doesn't even do it justice. There's an elite group in the steak club with Tower Chrysler.

And every week, they try a steak sandwich from a different location in the city. And this is one of those things we had talked about. You know, where do you find? I feel like especially Alberta steak. Steak sand. about sandwiches, we need to find the best steak sandwich. Well, they've been on this. They beat us to the punch on it. Yep. State Club will be back. It's just on a little break right now. I need to enjoy this a little longer before I go on a full relapse. Oh, so he's planning a relapse. That's great to hear.

It's a meat cleanse, I guess, or the opposite of a meat cleanse. I don't know how that works. So whatever works for you. I would think summer's got to be the hardest time, wouldn't it be? It's a barbecue season. If this guy waits too long, I'm starting to stay at the club of my own. Let's go, Serge. Come on, buddy. Just jump the queue.

It's a brilliant idea, and I do like it. And as we saw yesterday in our Warner weekend forecast, the forecast calls for meat this weekend. It's a very high precipitation of meat. And now that you speak of it, if I was to make a steak sandwich, like a little of a fillet. slice it up onto some garlic toast with a layer of bourson cheese.

Oh, the puck. Underneath. My kid says to me, like he's, like, this is some sort of a revelation. It's like I had, uh, buddy of my made a steak. I was at his place we were having a barbecue and he put like garlic butter on top of the steak. Like, oh my God, it was so good. It's like, go to a, go out once in a while, have a steak at her. I guess he's just a young punk.

Dean telling people to go out. This is fucking awesome. Go to a restaurant and have a good steak. Clown, it'll be a... Where are we on the blue cheese? You like the blue cheese in top of the steak? Yep. I do.

I like blue cheese, so... It's a little scary, but in the right spot, right? Here's the question I have, and it's to do with a lot of the toppings. If you've got a quality cut of meat, you don't need salt and pepper. You don't need no blue cheese. I think the blue cheese and everything else, is used to, you know, maybe a lesser cut or a lesser cut. No disrespect to people who enjoy it, but my buddy beef, we would go out to a,

it doesn't matter, run of the mill, average or high-end steak place, he's going to ask the wait staff for HP sauce. And it's just, it's atrocious. And I've told him, if you need HP sauce for your steak, if what you're eating, you need HP sauce, What you should do is just take the steak and throw it on the floor and give it to the dog because it's shit. If you need to be putting HP on it to enjoy it, you shouldn't be eating it. Okay.

So if that's the case, you must be even more outraged at ketchup because to be fair, I agree with the HP, but ketchup's even worse. Is it not? Here's the story. That guy, Scott, that tinkler guy from Florida. Yeah, Tinkleberry. The trainer. when we were he was

drink, we're Peter Lugar's steak joint famous steakhouse in New York City catch up please. And you know they have it and it's like

you go back to the kitchen and the staff are like we got another one of these asses. Appalled. What are they doing? That's all the time. Yeah, you need like the soup Nazi

or right who would just say no steak for you and told me get out. Get out. That's right. That's right. Are you on your deck? Where are you? Who, me?

No, Ryan's in the studio. Yeah, I see that. I just got the, it's Friday, Dean. Oh, I see. I'm very proud. This was a Lilac Festival purchased $26. I don't know who the creep wearing it before was, but this is a deal. Wow.

And retro, I see you're also wearing some bright colors today. Sport the cause team. Yeah. It's quite a chest you've got, Red. It really is. Bountiful rack. Yeah. It's quite a rack.

Yeah. What a bosom. Yeah. A buddy of mine back in Winnipeg. He also had a barrel chest. And he was Mr. U.P. Purbody.

That was his official name. Mr. U.P. Purbody. Here for, here for business. So we'll get through it. You got a plane to catch. we got a weekend to get into we have a few things to obviously talk about it's UFC weekend i saw

did anybody see the uh our buddy mike malott was on the mic yesterday representing canada is he still charming as ever jeez ah shucks canadian yeah he was apologizing for beating people up and stuff he's had a little more lead in his pencil of the okay good thing he was like let's go this is our this is our event it's not for anybody else it's for canadians let's go the whole bunch of people in front of me at the uh security line off to Vancouver for the UFC event. Really? Well, we may as well tell you

about it while we're talking about it. Sure. Hey, Jack. Now that you've whetted our appetite, retro. UFC 2. UFC 289?

Buffers, you know what? Yeah. Because it's his brother, right? Is it brother's cousin that was Michael Buffer? It was the original, let's get ready to rumble. And this is Bruce, and he's been the UFC guy. He really was riding brother's

coatt tails, but I know. A hell of a racket. And now Michael, it's like, You've got a catchphrase? That's it. The other, Bruce is unbelievable. I love some of, because you'll see some of the, some of the, they have like a best of Bruce Buffer or whatever. Really? He's like right in their face.

From Washington, he is the defending. And he's like shouting right in their face. And they're like, yeah, come on, bring it. Come on. Let's go. That's me. He's unbelievable. He's unbelievable.

Anyway, UFC, 289 in Vancouver, Nunez versus Aldana. Olivera versus Benil Darius. There's a couple, I think, there's a lot of questions about Charles Olivera. Longtime champ, lost the belt, lost again,

well, lost the belt because he didn't make weight and then got his ass beat. It's the scales, Dean. It was the scales. Yeah, those Arizonaans fucking around. Joe Rogan has a little take on it. He's like, you can't trust these people. So now they, Rogan was saying

they literally have 24-hour security watching the scales. Really? Because, I don't know. Listen, I'm way beyond this. But Rogan was saying it's something about some of the European fighters and how they're in, what is it, stone, right? However, they're, right? It's the different measurements of weight.

So they adjust the scale. And then when they put it back, was it a half pound off? Oliver and get screwed on it. Anyway, so now it's like, listen, we're in America, we're in Canada, it's pounds, this is how we do it, get over it. So they have people that literally 24 hours a day, apparently watch the, apparently watch the scales. Anyway, I'm not worried about that in Vancouver. I'm sure Dana White's got everything. I think Vancouver is known for great scales, not a concern. And I do have some background on Bruce. Apparently, Michael's is half brother. In 1989, they were introduced when their birth father contacted Michael after seeing him on.

TV. So Michael is the first announcer, gets famous. And then it's like, hey, I'm your dad. Come meet your half-brother in the mid-90s. And then Bruce managed Michael in 1990. And they started Buffer partnerships. Michael Buffer was, we had him

and the first Panthers run. Really? Like all the games. The cats are, the rats have been back. Does that, do you like that? Or is it feel like it's cheesy? Love it. I love it. Okay. almost didn't see them. A number of Canadians on this UFC card.

Mike Malott is from the Contender Series, got himself the contract, taking on Adam Fuggett. Out of Eugene. Out of Eugene, Oregon! Let's go, Mike. Beat his ass. Come on, Mike. And six Canadians have been added to this card,

which will take place in Vancouver, tomorrow night, June 10th, Saturday. It is available on pay-per-view. Could you say Vancouver like Bruce Bufferwood? Six and-O Canada. Vancouver, Canada. Vancouver? Six-and-O Canada?

The writing. Defending! He's great. And you know what, his brother, that Michael, people won't know this, but coming from the broadcast world that we used to live in, If you, he's copyrighted or whatever, saying, let's get ready to rumble.

So that's his thing. And he'll sue you. And he'll sue you. That's right. He has the legal rights to the let's get ready to run. So if you, rumble, if you play it or if you have it, he'll sue you. That's like that. Didn't the, like, Phil Jackson, like, copyright three Pete or something like that?

These guys know what they're doing. They're sharp. Yeah. Businessman, Dean. Nunes Aldana. There you go. UFC, 289. in Vancouver.

Where do we want to start first? Well, I would like to allow Rhett an opportunity, Dino, because he's not super active on the social medias, but on Twitter last night, he had cranked up the heat. It was on broil mode. He was roasting. There's the best ad in the world.

Good to work, Dino. Roasting the officials. Come on, refs, let him play. You were hyped up for this game if my Twitter alerts were correct. Wow, it is true. The refs were brutal. Like, it's the Stanley Cup finals, right? I'm just glad it's consistent because everyone's saying it's been brutal since you're

up with the puck in the playoffs. I wouldn't want them to start getting good now. At least it's still NFL, NHL officials here, right? That's a good point. Yeah. Everybody's like, your conspiracies in. I'm like, there's no conspiracy. They've been so incompetent you couldn't run a conspiracy through them.

They're not that good. They're off. No, no feel at all for the game. Zero. They've completely lost their feel for hockey. And they don't. The overtime one was tough because it's, full speed. I'm like, oh, boy, they upended it.

But in slow moor, you're like, oh, that is such a die. Yeah. Even at, but at that point in a game, I don't care, was he on a breakaway? Then it's not a penalty. Come on. That's true. And McLean had the weirdest take. He's like, well, look at it. It's a scoring chance. I said, no, it's not. He's on his ass.

Like, there's no scoring chance at all. It's not a two-on-one. He's on his back. He's a one-on-two, trying to split guys. He falls. Oh, penalty. Honestly, I'm I typically don't bother with refs, except in kids hockey. But these guys, Jesus.

Too many. Too many. Nuts. Yeah. Too many, Trev. But we got a series. That's the great takeaway. Well, we got a series, but no one came to watch the refs.

No one came. No one came to watch the refs. Stay out of it. God. Do we have a series? Or did the, or did the Panthers win the one game they will win by the hair of the chinny, chin, I mean, we don't know, but at least there's a chance we have a series. If they'd lost last night, this thing is fucking dead.

We know that. So at least there's hope that there could be a series. And I know you're big on hope, Dean. No, well, I just, I- That's a huge F-up by Vegas. It really is. They control that. You have the Stanley Cup that you can start sizing rings.

If you control the last three minutes of that game, then you blow it. Now it is this one off night for Hill and who knows, right? Like, that's all it takes at this point. If Brobsky wants to just go lights out. And if the effing refs, and honestly, if the effing refs can stay out of the effing way, then that changes things do. Because good, God. Florida is playing pretty good, and then it gets penalty trouble.

Vegas hits a couple goalposts. Bobrovsky is out of his mind again. First time in the funnel. Both of them, I mean, both of the Vegas goals come in the power play, I suppose. But again, this was still a game where Vegas led late. Florida needed that out of his mind, goaltending, and they get an overtime winner. I don't know.

I still feel like if I'm Vegas, I'm not really cracking the bead yet. Stick with the process. Pretty good about it. Just, hey, win the next one and we'll lift it at home. They were saying on the broadcast, like there couldn't have been more than a couple quality scoring chances until Kachuktize the game.

Like, it was that steady, really, really stout defensive effort that we've come to expect from Vegas over the last two months here. They just didn't win it. Both teams are in the same situation. Win the next game. Yeah, that's fair. We've got to win the next one.

You don't hope two, two. The vibes are not good if you're Vegas. No, especially giving away that last, the one last thing. So I don't know who's going to win the next game, but I'm glad they scored because it seemed like it was a series that was over. That meant like the last two rounds of the playoffs were duds. I watch Vegas and I catch myself wondering, why the hell, why have I struggled or we whatever?

Why have I struggled to give this team credit or to recognize them as what they are? They play with pace. They come at you. They forecheck. I don't, I guess, you know what, if you pay close, enough attention, maybe you do, but I probably am guilty of

spending too much time in the lack of name value in their goaltender certainly this year. It just felt like without a goaltender, it doesn't matter what the rest of it is. Totally. They're not going to win. Or maybe you're just good enough of a team. You play a good enough team game that if your goaltender doesn't

shit himself, you might have a chance to win. Marsha So is out of his mind. He scores again last night. and Eichel with another point. Those two have something, have something going. Chandler-Stevenson, great play. It's just, it's a very good team.

And I don't know why I'm so stupid. And that's 13 and 13 for Marshall Show. It's unbelievable. And to be fair, like goaltending on does a lot of teams. It's not like everyone looked at that team before the season started. What are they going to get? Like, are you kidding me?

This Logan Thompson and Laurent Brasua, and then those guys get hurt and it's like, Hill, like what? Yeah. But I think we're starting to look at them like we look at Carolina where you just sort of ignore the name bar of the goalie. Like Reimer, Kachukh, Kachukov, Ranta, Freddie Anderson. It doesn't matter.

We're starting to understand that it's that structure just like Carolina that allows any goalie to come in and have a much safer environment to operate in, right? Watch he'll shit himself in three straight. Now it'll be like, boy, if only they had a goalie, they'd, uh, can I just bring up an interesting point that Ryan says there, just to kind of connect the dots between Vegas and Carolina. The two teams that don't show loyalty to anyone.

True. Yep. And in different ways, like, Vegas has been so savage in terms of trades and exploiting, like, any sort of LTIR wiggle room they have. And it's, look, you're allowed to do it. It's in the book. Like, you may as well use any advantage you can get. And they'll spend whatever it takes to get what they need to get done, done,

including, like, trying to trade a guy with a no trade and pretending they didn't know. Like, that's ridiculous shit with Daddanov two years ago. And Carolina is the other way. It was just like, no, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's not value. We're only interested in value. See you later. We'll use the casp space elsewhere and we'll buy low on goalies because we know they're voodoo. And, you know, Vegas is spend to win at all costs.

And Carolina is like, hunt for value at all costs and always keep cap space so we can peel off a patcher ready or a burns for peanuts. But there's no loyalty on either side. I agree. Like, Dougie Hamilton probably would have loved to stay. They're like, cool. Norris trophy candidate. Good. See you later.

No, we'll go buy low on. Tony DeAngelo and then trade him for something. Like, we're good. Carter Verheghi gets the overtime winner again. He has, I saw somebody tweet about it last night. And it was the knock with Florida is

how did they let Marcia So and Riley Smith go? And on the flip side, I guess they've won some championships, but man, Carter Verheagie is a guy that got away for the Tampa Bay Lightning. They had him, didn't qualify him, because he was chances where he was going to make some money in arbitration. And as we know, Tampa can't afford to pay anybody.

Their cap doesn't happen every year. So for Hage, he goes to Florida. Last year, he had two overtime winners, had three game winning goals in the series against Washington. Two of them in overtime, the one goal wins the series, if you recall. Already this year, four game winning goals, two overtime goals. The one put Boston out. He had, I think, had the game winner against the Leafs.

in that series. The guy is, uh, it just, just scores big goals, had 42 in the regular season. Wow. And gets the,

uh, the overtime winner in it. We may look, who knows, we may look back. This could be the goal that saves their season and their cup, the whole thing. But he,

sir, he sure has a pension, I suppose, as they say, for, uh, for getting big goals. Well, and beyond that, like a hot playoffs is one thing.

You noted the regular season for, for even strength goals. There's three guys. that score more than him. McDavid, Ranton and Pasternak. That's it. Because, like, McDavid had 20-some power play goals, 18 for Pasternak,

13 for Rantan. And, like, for Heggy, most of his goals are at even strength. He's not a powerplay merchant. Like, that's a sneaky underrated player. Like, you kidding me? 40 plus and fourth and even strength goals in the entire league? More than Robertson, more than Hughes,

more than dry-sidal. Like, are you kidding me? That's a heady group he's in. Not a big dude. just very very lean kind of a little lean guy not a power forward by any means just scores so

I don't know I listen let's get seven games one I didn't know friggin investment in this thing one way yeah why you're cheering for Vegas now you know Vegas just to walk all over the poor Panthers? No I don't care for all right there's yeah you know me I don't give a shit yeah but we got to have something to watch

when we're sitting on our asses if it's going to be over let's get it over if we're going to go seven then good let's go seven. But if we're just going to, hey, game four. Swing swing game here, fellas. Now, my concern being, fellas,

wins game six? Like, what do I got to, like? So they break for a day off on top of the travel day every time they change scenes. Next Friday. Yeah. Can you pull the kid out of school? How are you going to do that? I have to go tomorrow. I got a big tournament

the boys next weekend in Buffalo. I don't know if I can miss that. I don't know if they'll want to miss it. When's game seven? Monday. That's going to be in Florida. Vegas. Sorry, in Vegas.

That's a different point. I'll just go to Vegas and then come up to Calgary. Saturday, Tuesday, Friday, Monday. Yeah, just wait for game seven. Buy those tickets now. Going to get expensive if there's a game seven. And right now it doesn't look like it's going to happen. So maybe, hmm?

Well, Warner's at the airport. Another opportunity come and gone to get you over to Dr. J. Patel. that outdoor dental and get that big gullate of yours looked at. Snoring treatments, two 15-minute treatments, increase the tension in the soft palate, reduces snoring, non-surgical pain-free. Maybe you've tried all these things. There's mouthguards and sleep machines and nose clips and all this stuff,

and it just doesn't work. Then you need to go and see Dr. J. Patel at outdoor dental. They have the solea laser. It's used for their dentistry practice, obviously. no needles, no drills, no stress. It is the way of doing business in the dental thing nowadays. And in addition to that, they can use this to treat snoring. Pain-free, non-surgical. And who knows? Maybe it works for you.

Maybe it works better than you can even imagine. You're getting more sleep. It's quality sleep. You feel better. People around you, like, this guy's less of a jerk than it used to be. This is unbelievable. It's worth your time. It's worth the effort.

Book an assessment, book a consultation right now with the people over at Outdoor Dental. The website, Outdoor. Dental. What's the hurt and trying? Give it a shot. Go get it done. Summer's coming. You're going to be a deadbeat booze bag all summer, which is going to mean more snoring. Save the other people in your home.

The agony of going three months without sleep. Yeah. Go see Dr. Jane. When you're passed out in the backyard. Yeah. What a chainsaw? No, it's not a chainsaw. It's dad.

Yeah. Why is that lawnmour on it 2 a.m.? Isn't there a noise? What's the noise violation? That's the bylaw. Oh, wait. That's Bob in the backyard, hammered up on whiskey sours.

Outdoor.dental is the website. Maybe next time, hey, you're at. Now, speaking of stuff. We need a gout update. Three days in, I worry. And I don't know if you know, but I think your roommate, the woman you live with, had submitted a photo.

Jesus Christ. I'm worried. It doesn't look good. It doesn't look good, Dave. So I love your carpet, but, oh, that looks painful. Yeah, that's just the area. It's the area rug that I have here. That's a, yeah.

Knock down the person. Yeah, well, it's just for, uh, It's more for the noise proofing. Keep the echo down in here. I can see why you're complaining, man. That doesn't not look good. That single sheet on the bed must feel like a grand piano on your toe there, Dean. It does not look good at all.

Can you pop it? Don't pop it. Don't pop. No. It's not. No, no. See why I didn't come up the stairs the other day. Jesus. No, we're not close to that.

I'm more, and for mine, that looks like it's closer to the toenail. Mine's further south. I'm more in the knuckle. The knuck. You're the toe knuck. I'm in the toe knuck. Yeah. Not great.

Do we want to, how do we want to do this? Do we want to talk about the potential Calgary Flame, well, the Flames coaching rumor situation now or in the Pinder report? Rhett's shaking it off. I don't, Red, what's going on here? Well, I just, we can, it's great. Elliot came out and said, or whoever said, I don't know, broke the news. Yeah, I tell it.

Huska's the favorite. We've discussed Huska and love, it seems like. So announce it. And then come on the show and tell us how you're going to coach these guys. Yeah. And make them not be a bunch of sissies. Let's go. No sissies allowed.

Let's make sure that that's not even the right word. What I'm trying to search it for a word, they're going to show up and play every game, right, Mr. Huska? I think everyone knows what you're getting at, Rhett. The coaching excuse is no longer there. There's a new coach, whether it's Love or Husker or someone else, and it sounds like it's going to be Huska. Now it's work boots and lunch pail time.

There's no more whining and complaining. Now's the time for this core to show up and work their tails off. It's amazing how much poll a Genla has. I was going to say, I was going to say, boy, that's long. Once a blazer, always a blazer, I guess. Is that how it goes? that freaking team is still haunting

people all these years later if Wayne can get all his pals into the hall this is pretty minor on the scale of you know yeah towing the line for pals I think it's and again who are we to say we don't know how Mitch Love coached just last year or would coach coming up or how the interview process went

but obviously Huska's been in the mix for a long time So, yeah, give him a shot. Give her, man. And in the best case, for those that don't know what the hell we're talking about, last night during the hockey game, Elliot Friedman came on and said that, while nothing is done,

and I'm paraphrasing, things are pointing towards Huska being hired as the new head coach, the Calgary Flames. Now, we had talked about it as recently as yesterday, saying that this feels like about the time where, here's, we want you to take the job, let's get a contract figured out. Over the weekend, we, you know,

get yourself set and then Monday press conference perhaps. That's kind of how we saw this potentially playing out, so not stun. The only reason I bring it up, Retro, is I don't know that, I think that we, I know for myself, I was kind of focused. It just felt like, okay, Mitch Love's going to be the guy. And then the question was, well, why love more than Husker or somebody else? Has he done something that they haven't? And it's, I mean, it's different resumes, yeah.

Different resumes, but the path is kind of the same. Junior to Western League, to HL, to. You don't know, and we don't, again, we don't know what Huska's relationship with the guys in the room is. That might be the biggest piece of the puzzle, right? The other thing that's tough is like, okay, so they were super tight in the D zone two years ago, and, you know, they were right there for the Jennings until the end of the year.

I think they allowed the fewest even strength goals in the league two years ago. And you're like, wow, Ryan Huska's coach in the D. And then this year they were shit in their own zone. But we also don't know what, like, Daryl's overruling. on no, no, no, we have to do it this way. And it's the same with the power play. It's like trying to assign credit to AGMs for shit. You never know whether he was like banging his fist on the table.

Don't do this or like we have to get this done. It's really tough to assign credit to assistance because everything's running through the head guy anyway, whether that's GMs or coaches. But the penalty kill's been superb for a while and that's his department. I mean, it's just hard to sip through what's his department versus what the coach is saying, no, no, no, we have to do it this way. all those things are important for me I've talked about it for decades since I retired

the guys it's more about making sure you get the most of your players because you can give them this system or that if they're not showing up with the energy to do the job with the excitement to want to play and with the passion to want to win the rest of that shit don't manage yeah he's got a room to fix doesn't he yes fix the room that's your first I don't care what you do on the

only kill. If your room is no good, you ain't way to that's fair. I think in this day and age, there aren't many coaches that don't know the game. Right? It's, maybe there was a time and we talked to Matt Stage

in yesterday, an interview that'll be coming out, and he talked about Pat Quinn, and really it was less about and then Keenan was the same way, right? It was less about fundamentals and X's and O's. It was more of the, you know, which sounds, you know, kind of silly. The other thing, Archaic.

I was going to say, guys, the guys, coaches know how to coach. It's like you say, it's the relationships. How can you get through to players? The other thing that, sorry,

I interrupted you there, but the other thing that with coaching nowadays is there's so much info for the guys to get on their own. Do you know what I mean? Like, everything is readily available.

Hey, I got to see that play I just made. Or I want to see what they did on that two on one. Or what are they doing on a penalty kill or the power, right? it's instant availability. Most of the guys

I would think would have access to all that stuff. Hey, you're sitting at home board. I'm going to check out that who do they play to one on Phoenix? I'm going to check out their penalty count. Right? Like, those are all things that are easily available for the players now. So I think it's almost, yes, there's X's and O's and there's systems you want to implement and their style you want to play. But it's,

I think it's about creating energy and passion. and excitement. They've got that. The other stuff's there. You look at John Cooper in Tampa, the first half of that, I don't even want to call it, dynasty or this era of Tampa hockey.

Rick Bonas was the assistant, and Rick was really strong on X's and O's, and John's job was to, you know, relate to the player and get them to buy in. You don't have to be, I think of it similar to Connie. Like, he doesn't have to understand the nuances of every corner of the CBA

and be a wizard and LTIR. You just need someone around you that you can empower and trust. to Rett's point, it's about for the coach, like this room wasn't right. And there's some ingredients that have been to why it wasn't right that aren't here anymore, but there's still some that remain.

Connie might move a couple more in or out. We'll see. But your job is to somehow get all these guys to come back together in the fall and start harmoniously. You've got to get this. You can't let this fester into a second season. We had the Huska resume up on screen.

For those that have just listening, the track record, five years, assistant coach with the Colonna Rockets in the Western League. Then seven years as Rockets head coach winning a championship in there. Comes to the flames four years as the head coach between Adirondack, aterondack, and then three years in Stockton. So four years head coach of the AHL affiliate and since five years behind the bench as an assistant. So 11 across the Western League and pro, 11 years as a head coach, five years NHL assistant coach, and yes,

teammate of Jerome McGinla for a couple of years back to his playing days in Camloops. So, Brad Lukowitz and Randy Petruck and Ashley Buckberger, soon to be joining the franchise. Rod Branch, wasn't he the goalie? That's right. Yeah, yeah. What about your buddy out at the Edge School? Is the Edge School going to be looking for a coach?

Because DuPont, didn't he play in, didn't Mickey DuPont play? Did he play there too? I think he was a Blazer, if I'm not mistaken. I could be wrong about that. I don't know. I'm getting old. But, you know, maybe, maybe it makes sense. Maybe there's something there.

So I wonder what, we don't know a ton about Mitch Love, aside that he's had four really good years in a row coaching whatever he's coached. Are you hopeful they can bring them up? him associate, would you rather leave him in the A as the head? Like, there's not a lot of openings right now. I don't know that the risk of him leaving now is super high, but you also, just like you worried about if you gave it to love what happens to

Huska, I think there's even more concern about what happens to love if it is going to be Huska or do you promote him? Do you leave him? What are your thoughts right? Well, I think you leave them and it's going to be up to him too, right? If he's pursuing a head coaching job, sometimes going, like it's, it doesn't always happen what like it did for

Huska where you're the assistant and then step into head coaching, right? And he don't know sometimes once you start the assistant coaching path you get stuck in that role so it'll depend it's up to love the other thing you got to remember is that these aren't assets that you get to keep and trade and move around you can't hold a guy back if he's if he's destined to be good you made a decision to to to go with ryan huska you go with it and you you can't try and keep a guy in the wings just a case down the road right so i i agree You make a choice at the time when you have to make it.

And listen, coaching's not going to die. It's not like there's not going to be another coach that comes along. Ryan Huska probably won't be the coach of the flames for 15, 20 years. There'll be new coaches, right? Guys get in it and they're good or bad. There's always coaches out there. Yeah, you just don't want this to be the one that got away. And I'm not saying he is.

But I also look at those points percentages. And it's like you probably had some good teams, but damn it, he wins every year. look at 721, 579, 729, 729, 713, and then this year is 736. That's tidy, tidy numbers. I look at it if Huska's your guy, he's your guy. And like I'm kind of with red on that. I'm sure Mitch Love is a great coach and maybe you look down the road and think,

man, you had the second coming of Scotty Bowman and he left. My concern would be if it's Huska, Huska, what do you want? Yeah, that's fair. What is the position? Who are the guys you need to succeed? Let's put everything we can to help you as a first time head coach in place and let's all win together. And if that's Mitch Love, if it's not whatever.

And he has paid his dues in some way maybe I haven't or we haven't given enough respect to Huska. because if Conroy was put in a position to ascend and then take over, then certainly Huska has. That's, he's been a number of years. It's traditionally goes, right? That's not,

it's not a normal path. I get what you're saying. And I don't, it's fine. And I think Huska, if that's the choice, that's a choice. But like,

what other team is always going, oh, you work in the minors and then you work in, it's not like players. You don't draft them and hang on to him as asset. They don't work their way up the ladder. I guess all I'm saying is that my argument was, if now isn't the time for Conroy,

then when is it going to be? You could argue it's the same for Huska. If he's passed over here for say Mitch Love, the question would have to be, well, what if I'm not the head coach now, how many, I've been five years assistant, how many, what else do I need to do? That's what I was, that's what I was, trying to say if Mitch Love comes in, how does Huska hang around there?

Like, I, it's, that would have been, anyway. Yeah, the one thing I'll say is knowing Huska a little, and like, he joined me weekly for three of those four years in the American League, if not all four, I think, just talking America, like, this is a guy with zero ego and that is team first guy. I don't worry about bruised egos here, and Huska's getting the job. So in the flip situation, I wasn't worried about him as much as maybe some others were, but I also don't think he's going to be afraid if he thinks Mitch Love is going to be able to help this team to be like, ooh, this guy's going to be a hot contender. I can't have them on my

bench. That's not the way Ryanoska's wired. There is incredible humility and no ego. What? Because we talked about this a little bit off the show retro. How much, how important is NHL experience? And you can't get an HL experience unless you're in the NHL. And that's a, right? It's that slippery slope. How do you get that experience without actually getting there? but the rigors, the schedule, just everything that goes into the ups and downs, managing, wins, losses, personalities, egos, all of that. Huska's been in the league for five years. Yes, as an assistant, but he's been doing this for five years.

How much better off is he just for having been in that environment, the shit that happens that you just don't know happens until you're there? well i think he's way better off because all those little things that Dallas echin said it when he got canned from edmonton he wanted to walk in and kind of just take over and this and that it's like well these guys are different you're not dealing with junior hockey players that are trying to move on you're not dealing with a hl guys that are trying to move up these guys are established players you'll get a handful maybe of young kids but you can't push them around and and

and make the demands that maybe you can in junior in the AHL, the travel stuff, all the little things that go with it. Most of these guys, not most, but a lot of these guys, they'll have wives and kids and stuff. You don't get as much of that in the A of junior hockey. So all of those things are little things that you have to learn about. And again,

I still think the hardest part for him will be the adjustment from how are you viewed as an assistant so now you're the heavy right like could you make that yep can you make that switch it's we've talked about it it's it feels like the list of guys that try to go assistant to head it's a really really poor success rate we saw the gym play fair here there's numerous other instances it doesn't mean it's not going to work and i think they clearly have weighed that in they have to really like ryan house going to do this understanding there's a risk there um And to be fair, like you talk about NHL experience, Dean, like if they were to hire love,

I think they would bring in a guy that's got a lot of experience to help. And because Huska's been in the league for five years, I don't see necessarily as great a need to go out and get a Rick Bonas type associate or a Jeff Ward type guy that they brought in at other junctures. Like, and five years in the league isn't that long. I mean, he knows what's up. But there's guys that have spent 15 that haven't got a sniff at head. I don't feel like it's now or never. I see Jamie Compton on the bench in Florida with Paul Maurice.

and they worked in Winnipeg at least five years together. And so like there's guys that have done over a decade as assistance. And it doesn't mean, you know, if it wasn't going to happen now, it was never going to happen for Ryan. But if they think he's ready and it's like he understands this league, nothing's going to surprise him. You don't need to go get that established NHL. I've seen this for two decades guy and put him on the staff.

If it was Mitch Love, I think you would want that guy. You brought it up and I'm not like I'm not coming at you because it's, Jim playfair, right? And it's his tenure as a head coach or him as an NHL head coach. That's viewed as, you know, it was not a success, obviously. He probably, safe to say, Rhett deserved more of an opportunity. He had one year. The team was not terrible. And then Mike Keenan came in. Darrell obviously sees something you would have seen it, I guess. But one year is not a lot. I mean, you're trying to make that transition from assistant to head. You're finding your way.

He has that NHL experience. I just, I feel bad sometimes that Jim is viewed as a guy that didn't, that couldn't do it as an NHL head coach, when really I think probably fair to suggest he deserved a little more time than one season. I don't know what Darrell was thinking that Keenan was going to be an upgrade over Jim play for. Sorry. And Jimmy was in a tough spot because,

Darrell was GM had been coach, had a certain style. Jimmy wanted to do a certain style. It felt like he probably couldn't because Darrell had been heavy on guys, so it felt like he had to be a softer coach that it was a, I bet you asked Jimmy and say looking back, would you take that job again? And he'd say no. Also, wasn't it right out of the lockout, red?

Like, I feel like that was a dynamic too. You had everyone off for a year and then that's a weird thing. It's not like, hey, we were just here three months ago. It's like, who's in shape, who's here? Some contracts have rolled off the books. Guys are a year and a half older than when we last saw you. Yeah, it was a, it was a goofy situation for him. It wasn't a good, not that the fit was bad.

It was just a tough spot for him to even go into. And I think it's a lot, Husk is going to have a lot better time working for a guy like Conroy than Darrell. Yeah. Well, there you go. And we'll see. Today is Friday. I would expect we'll hear more about it today. chances are early next week, if not Monday, expect an official announcement on that.

Let's do the Pinder Report. We'll get to it here. It's a presentation of Village Honda, located in the Northwest Auto Mall. I've been hearing how difficult it is to get to rental cars and used cars. The used car market is red hot, and they want to buy your used vehicle. They'll pay top dollar, a million-dollar buying event up at Village Honda. Northwest Auto Mall, they buy your car. Even if you don't buy, there's the buyer-use car. You get the cash, you get a tropical cruise, and the money, like 24 hours, turn around. Get it, but bang, bang, bang. That's how that goes.

Bing, Bing, Bing, Bing, from the sounds of it. Your dealership for life exclusively at village honnetta.com, Village presents the Pinder report. Hey, I'm going to get on a plane. Have a great weekend. All right, Retro, appreciate you. There is one thing at the very end that you're going to miss, but someone took our baloney food advice to heart.

So we'll have, we'll fire it up on the. YouTube when you get to Buffalo, all right? When I land, I'll look. Okay. Chow. Exceptional work, by the way. We saved the best for last, so that'll be our last item on the pit of Bye, boom. Oh, there you are. Okay. We start with where the Huska fire began spreading. This is Elliot Friedman live from game three on Hockey Night in Canada with his update at the intermission.

Yeah, so the Calgary Flames are one of two teams right now without a head coach, the New York Rangers or the other. Nothing is done until it's done, but the word is that Ryan Huska, who is, has been an assistant coach for the flames for the past five seasons is the leading contender, but nothing is done until. Yeah, so not done yet, but a leading contender. And if it follows the script of Conroy, well, internally the decision made is late in the week. It leaks before the weekend, and they have the press conference early after the weekend.

That's what happened with Connie, and it feels really similar because it's Friday already, and they haven't announced a press conference. Don't want people working on a beautiful June weekend. Oh my God, be it a day yesterday. It was great. Connie, if you want to endear yourself to the local media, you'll wait until Monday. Ruin our weekend.

Do it right, Connie. Yeah, figure it out. Okay, so obviously Huska, we've talked about his resume a bunch. Here's something you might not know, Dean. Clearly, he's a Huberto whisperer. There you are. 2012, U-20 team in the World Junior's Day.

Problem solved, dude. Thank goodness. Put him down for 115 points again. Yeah. No problems here. Nothing at all to worry about. Let's go to the NHL game three. We mentioned it was a late game tying goal from Matthew Kluchuk,

whatever we're calling him here. And then yes, an overtime winner from Carter Verhagie, seven and O in overtimes. That's got like Team of Destiny feels about it. Only problem is it's been three games in a row where they've definitely looked like the second best team on the ice. They did not create much in the way of scoring chances before tying it very late. And as you alluded to, some posts from Vegas.

This could have been 3-0 very easily last night. They need to, obviously, they still need to win the next game, like Rhett was saying. But I would think Vegas has got to be feeling very good in their own skin. It still kind of has that feel of a, what is it, the gentleman sweep kind of thing? It could it be where they win it at home? But this is how Florida has done it the whole way. they win some games. They don't deserve winning. And you mentioned 7 and 0.

You have something going your way when you're 7 and 0, whether it's, you know, Destiny or Cinderella, whatever it is. But I liked Vegas just fine. It felt to me like this was going to be 3-0 right until the end. Bradshaw Living must be smiling today, Dean. He will now, because it's happened again, be known as the grandfather of the sign-in trade. Damon Severson getting moved today. The second sign and trade in NHL

history less than a year after Matthew Kachuk was signed and then traded to Florida. You need to pull it out of your backpack. It's gone now. Well, I'm excited. It makes things spicier. I just, the backpack item was people talking about something that had never happened. Like if I was, if I spent every day talking about dragons and like, dude, no one's seen a dragon. You've got to stop talking about dragons all day. Now we've found the dragon. Bigfoot has been spotted. Now it's a rational conversation piece, right? I laughed this morning. I was reading about it. Some blue jacket fan was like, oh, geez, better draft Mishkoff, because we got all these Russians coming in and blah, blah, blah, blah. Aaron Porcelain is like, Damon Severson is from Saskatchew.

He's from Melville. What the fuck are you talking about? But all of a sudden. Melville, not medallor. Yeah, that's right. So Severson and Provorov and Werensky, and they've got, I don't know, maybe. Hey, look, any team that didn't get gold. goaltending, if they are a gold tending the next year, they'll be better.

And that Texier French kid that was in player assistance, if he's back, that's a weapon. I don't think you saw the best of Johnny or Patrick Linae last year. Whoever they get at number three, he's got a really good shot of making the roster. I'm not here to say they're going to be good, but it'd be tougher than to be worse. Christ. It's easier now to kind of squint and see it than it has been in quite a while. Sure. Shane don't got hired by the just mentioned.

Calgary Flames? Another McGillet former team? No. No, why would Shane Dohn? Now, there's probably a tie-in back to the desert which are living work, but think about this angle. Shane Done's entire job to walk around the lease facility and loudly proclaim,

wow, we never got anything like this in Arizona in front of Austin Matthews five times a day. Yeah, this is way better than Phoenix. My goodness. You guys have a chef here? Oh, in Arizona. We didn't even get bagged lunches. No.

Poor Phoenix. An upper bowl. We didn't have an upper ball in Arizona. This is wild. One of hockey's all-time good guys, Shane. Yes. Yeah, great. And left, I think it was about a year ago.

And it was, geez, how could you do that to a franchise icon? Well, then you look at the owners of Arizona, and they've done that with every relationship they've had seemingly. So this is probably for the better for Shane. They've got deeper pockets in Toronto. And I think they're not moving from Toronto anytime soon, Dean. Who knows what that one wants? The senators have been too sexy

And it felt a little off How could this huge cavernous Crappy old rinkin canada Crazy owner Just okay market Like how is this a sexy sexy thing Like they're just uncensy right now It would be like the CFL actually adding a 10th team

It would make too much sense Uncf le Uncfly Uncensy Wow there's some sends coming back And the sensey vibes around the sale as a second bidder, the presumptive top bidder, has pulled away his bid and walked in frustration.

This is the, this is that how they, this is me walking away in frustration. Oh, rum, frum, fuck, god, son of a gut, gee, scop, butter, so frustrated with this. Ottawa Senator's people. I'm going to, I'm going to Monaco. I can't handle a shit anymore. I'm the presumptive top bidder and I'm frustrated. Over a billion dollars. This is the Toronto billionaire,

the apostatapalal Lappapalapal. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And got to be frustrated. The second group out of four that were deemed finalists. Tell you what? Hey, old Deadpool might be back around yet. A little sexy boy. Still Senzie.

I was starting to get Sinsie. It was all just a little too squeaky clean. Hmm. We'll have that to follow up on as the weeks. And for those of you keeping track at home, that's back to back, pinder shots at Phoenix and then Ottawa. Yeah. You're on your game today. Put your rink in the suburbs.

Two for two. Just profit. Step one. Put your rink in the suburbs. Step two profit. That's how we work here. RBC Canadian Open is in Toronto and there are a ton of Canadians in the field as always. But what's unique?

How about this? Corey Conner is leading the way at five under heading into today's action. 67 and four Canadians in the top 20, Dino. You'd love to see it. You don't care. Okay. Move along. Stampedeters opened their season last night, hosting the BC Lions.

If you saw my on Betway on the feed yesterday, why aren't we taking the Lions plus two and a half? Well, we did. And yeah, we turned 25 cents into 37. Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm.

Mm. It wasn't good. The offense looked completely discombopulated. Here's Danny Austin from our very own live at the 55 that debuted yesterday. It's a minor miracle. The Stampeders escaped that half only down 10. I do feel like you're seeing what being down three starting O lineman from last year does to a team. Passing game, just not connecting.

It was not pretty last 19. And they needed, oh, we'll just get a touchdown here and convert and then a field goal. And then we'll get another touchdown and convert that. No, this just, I was texting people. to know more than me about football. Is there a single elite tool that Jake Mayer has, or is this just a guy? It doesn't feel like this is the next in the line of future Hall of Famers, whether it was Dickinson, Garcia, Burris, Flutie, even Bow, you know, goes down as one of the greats.

Is this a placeholder or is this going to be a franchise guy for a while? It's so hard to tell, right? You know what it is, though, is if you're a Stam Peter fan and you follow this team, It's just you just have that belief. And I don't know if it was just ball or whatever. But over the years, you just felt like the offense, you need some points. They're going to get you some points.

So you're in this game. It never had that feel to Danny Austin's point there, that they were down by tennis. Like, geez, this is, hmm, I'm not sure. You kept waiting for that next drive to come through and be like, okay, now they're humming, here they go. And never really got the traction they needed. That's how you felt in the playoffs last year when they finally went to Bo.

And he started moving the chains. It's an interesting year to be sure. And a not great crowd of 17,000 in change, Dean. That's a miserable number. Thursdays are a tough draw for the stamps. We know that. Sound like a final was on. It's a beautiful day in Calgary,

which probably should have helped. But my understanding is the 17 announced might have been a little generous as well. Really. Well, I know in the fourth quarter there was a lot less than 17 when they were down a couple scores. who better luck next home game fellas and let's get out there come on i know it's an old there's days of shit tailgating straight like you say it's yeah it's the home opener it's a nice night

and i get that but they got riders on a weekend they got there there's a bunch of good ones out there we'll drag you out to one dino because we know our boy was tailgating last night i know he was he was there two hours early yeah i guess it was vodka i was told it was vodka was the yeah he said no uh no light beers he was switching gears away from right to the vodka. That's an aggressive pace for some. We'll see. We'll go to Cavalry FC.

They are hosting Vancouver FC on Sunday afternoon. Here's Tommy Wilden, Jr. talking about Calgary Minor Soccer Association Day at the pitch on Sunday. MSA game. We've talked about, you know, the players that have played in CMSA. And now the kids that walk out with our teams from our club program, they feel a part of it. You know, my kid's 13.

And he spent his 13 birthday with its CMS team behind the goal. he's going to spend his 14th birthday doing the same thing. Sunday 3 o'clock. So that'll be fun. All you young kickers out there, you sweepers and strikers and keepers. Get out there, watch the Calgary Pro Club. And hey, it looks like a great weekend to be doing anything outside, Dean.

I'm still stuck on the bontan vodka and the tailgate last night. I was just trying to think what he would have had in the tailgate. I think vodka pairs well with, um, Staggering? Flurry. What is it? Yeah.

It would probably be pork ribs, right? You go with the, because you go red wine with the beef and maybe some pork ribs. Honestly, if I've got a couple stiff vodka somethings in, all of Greg's food is only tasting better, and it's starting at the top of the totem pole anyway. Yeah, maybe. Tonight, I will be attending my first Calgary Surge game.

I'm very excited about the C.EBL side. Three and one. They get Ottawa. tonight. The black jacks. Blackjack? Okay. Surge three and one. They've been good. And at Winsport, 7 o'clock start. I've heard good things. I have not been.

And I'm going to take the young fellas and what? Who I think played netball growing up. So she'll be dialed in. What is netball? There's no backboard. And it's a hit in Australia, mate. Yeah. No backboard. So it's just like this weird little, oh, it's like a laundry bin, but 10 feet high. Well, I'm curious to get your assessment, your review after this.

Our boy, Bob Kerr is doing their community relations stuff. And Cammy, who we also see around the studio helping out on Rob's show. She does their sideline reporting. And yeah, there'll be a lot of people. Bob Kerr. Bobby. Yeah. Boy, Bob.

What is it? Robert, Rob, Bob, Bobby. Bobby Kerr. Yeah. It's actually not, but he doesn't, you know, we don't need to talk about it. Oh, okay. Do you want to those fake radio names from the 80s? Yeah, it's like.

His name's like Jim Kazlowski or something. Something like that, yeah? Yeah. Okay, you're going to like this. Oh, this is for stupid rat and he left. He always does that. Penderport is like, nice, I can get the hell out of here. I don't need to talk.

Yeah. Ass hat. Did you ever notice this with the Panthers jerseys? So this is the, they remade them like, what, four or five years ago? Mm-hmm. Look above the actual Panther. and read what it says. On the white jersey, it says Florida.

On the red jersey, it says Panthers. Yeah. Oh. Today was the day. Baseball, right? I learned that. Yeah, baseball does that. Exactly.

Very good. Didn't know that. Very impressed. And finally, the boys that watch the show, God bless you. I don't know why the hell you do it, but you do and you've got our backs. And we've been making a push for Bologna Dean.

Here is what came up in my feet on Instagram. at some point yesterday. Tonight's dinner inspired by Flames Nation fried BBC salad. Careful. Bologna, broccoli and cappin.

Get off the porn hub Pinder, Jesus. She thinks it's tofu. Hashtag bring baloney back. Bring baloney back. If you can poop your wife in eating bologna telling her it's tofu, send a picture into the show.

This is amazing. I like it. I bring a baloney back. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's Friday. A little BBC for everybody. That's right.

Yeah. Can you do BBC at work or is that order going to take order? I don't know. I don't know. Some things you eat at lunch protocols at work. Don't bring fish to work, right? And speaking of Keller, I think we need to be ready for a, I don't know, a BBC. Really?

But he, I mean, he's at, he is all in with us bringing baloney back. Yeah. I think it's, we may be seeing a baloney platter coming by the, uh, the studios next week. I'm horrified and excited.

I think it's, uh, we can't tell my wife. That's the, that's the, I don't know. It does look delicious. Yeah.

I know. I'll see that photo again. Go back. Because that looks like a healthy ass salad. And if you told the lady, that was tofu. Look at it. I like that he's,

that they're trying to hoodwink the chicken to think that it's, that's the best part. I mean, that in the BBC. Yeah. Now, you see at the top there, that's Hank's original. No free plugs, but Hank's original. That's Okotok's.

They've got like seasoning for your popcorn. Really? Go and check out Hank's original. Hanks, whatever it is there, Hanks. Dot original. Free plug, apparently, for the boys at Hanks. I see them every once in a while at the old farmer's markets and stuff. Good stuff.

All right. That's BBC. We got a better name. Yeah, I've watched the letter. CBB or something. You can't be naming your salad after that news network in England, Dean. We can't have people thinking it's something that's not. You're going to get a whole lot of, can we make that our social clip today?

I feel like we'll get lots of clip today. I feel like we'll get pulled down. Everything's getting pulled down these days. Oh, man, I'm so excited. Is it too late? It's already June. Is it too late for 2023 to be the year of the baloney of the baloney comeback? No one is ever going to say no to an amazing underdog story.

Everyone loves a Cinderella. Bologna Fest, 2023. We have to call it something else. The big Bologna is for the boys. Bologna's for the boys. Bologna for the boys. Fridays for the Bologna for the boys.

That's your Pinned Report on a Friday for Village Honda, D. Oh, man. Village Honda, Northwest Auto, while online at VillageHonda.com. Yes, the million-dollar buy-in event continues. They'll buy your used vehicle. It's cash.

It's a tropical cruise for two. They want to jam their lot full of quality used vehicles, and they're putting their money where their mouth is. Village Honda, your dealership for life. Good people. And obviously, looking to put a little money in your pocket if you are so inclined. Wanted to mention Vinanova.

I got to get a hold of Justin, because Justin, it's funny how it all kind of comes together. We did the Christmas, the top shelf elf Christmas campaign for ghosted a home and the adoptive family. One of the prizes that we had was donated from Bontan Meets. It was the pig roast. Oh, yeah. A full pig and the pig roaster from Bonton Meets. It was actually Justin from Vina Nova.

Come on. Who was the winning bidder? I didn't realize until afterwards. We were doing all the backlog on it and contacting the winners. Like, geez, Justin. So, Justin? Have you seen Justin? Doesn't seem like a guy that'd be, you know,

he's like I've never done it. It sounds like a great idea. I'm not sure he's going to be, you know, chewing on the, on the, what is it, a hawk, a pork hawk right off of the pig, but nonetheless.

The vegans choice. And there again, don't ask too many questions. It's like hot dogs. Do you like hot dogs? I sure do. What's in them? No. Shut up.

Shut up. Stop. Don't. Just shush. It's not important. It's not important. See, so many people want information and they want to educate themselves.

Sometimes you just want to, Just don't worry about it. Ignorance is bliss. Bless is more, do you know? That's what they say. That's what they say. You know who I bet? I, too, an elder millennial, am pro baloney.

We need everybody to be a little bit more pro baloney. They are. I bet you Peter Klein loves himself a good baloney sandwich, hey? Over at McLeod Law? He's not too fancy. I know some law firms they'd be too good for baloney. That's right. Not McLeod Law.

He's a man of the people. They are there. They're on the same level as all of us. They're all humans, Dean. We all like baloney. We're all breathing the same air. When I go and I want to associate myself with just good, hard work and honest people who aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves and dig into a big old bologna and mustard sandwich every once in a while. And that's the kind of person.

Peter Klein is. He is one of the best of the best. You know he's the personal injury guy, but did you know he's also the go-to guy in Calgary for your disability insurance? claim. If your long-term disability insurance company is refusing to pay insurance benefits to you, it's one simple move. Contact Peter at McLeod Law. He will get you the disability benefits you paid for and that you deserve. He gets your peace of mind back, the peace of mind that you paid for. Good, honest, and we're having so fun, just good, honest people. There's no, it's, it was one of the first things I felt when we walked in there was that there's no pre, it's just, they're just good

Bologna is what the show is full of. Oh, you watch your mouth. That's a, oh, hey, hey, get us taken off the air here with that kind of talk. Now, this is not scripted.

well done boys well done that's going over in the chat well too love it yeah you know five 10 years from now we might actually have this friggin show up and rolling you know be nice

we might actually have something going on step one take five to 10 years to get things rolling step two profit yeah profit yeah well you know what what happened to Jack's

rig yesterday. This is very behind the curtain. Jack sent a photo to our group chat yesterday of his shitbox of a Honda. Yeah, the flagship shipbox. That's what it's... And it looks like somebody took a samurai sword to your fender and just

peeled the metal back from the fender well. What happened? I don't really... I was just driving home on Stoney and then like the plastic that like goes over the tire. Yeah. Like The wheel well guard or whatever. Just shot out.

So I literally drove home like that in it. Like this piece is just sticking out. People are fucking trying to wade me down. Looks like complete shit. Let me get the photo. Yeah. So it's actually the inside of the fender well. Yes.

Okay. I couldn't tell. I thought it looked like you'd run into something. It just peeled your actual fender back. That's not bad. Would Village pay for that? Because they're saying use cars. That's in some kind of disrepair, though.

Anthony does not want that. Yeah. I know they got a million bucks. You're not going to get much of it with that, buddy. And you know what? You don't get a million bucks in the first place by making those kinds of deals. That's true. That's not ideal.

Well, why didn't you pull over, Jack? I did pull over. And then I tried to yank the thing out and I couldn't. I just fucking drove off. And, you know, if we are going to have a Flames Nation shitmobile, RJ could do some graphic work for it because he's so good at that. stuff yeah yeah I had flew off daddy yeah let's do some uh some betway and get the h out of here shall we well before I do that I think he's got the photo already so let's

let's let's dance on this uh all right let's see what this nation shipmobile which I mean listen hey I'm not it sounds like I'm being I don't mean to be mean oh dear yeah that's not supposed to be there so like what's but what's in dragon what's in front of your week your front tire are you not missing part of your fender oh yeah like that was already did a monster take a bite out of your car look at this what the hell is happening dude what is going on in your world it does it looks like there's been a shock attack um seriously jaws came in and just took the front off this car here well i wonder i can see why the inside of your fender well came flying out

can you did you speaking of which did you see that video of the shark attack what Dude, it's gone viral. Good or not good? It's not good. Is it a happy ending or do we need to not talk about it? Nothing's good about it. Okay. Where was this?

I took the... It's going to be in Australia because that's, of course, where my kids will be swimming in the ocean at some point. No, I saw the video at first. It was like, oh, that's not good. And then I saw, I think it was on TMC this morning. They went and got the shark that killed this guy. And it looks like it's a scene out of just.

It's just offshore. And you see a guy swimming and he's yelling for help. Oh, shit. Dean, why are you doing this on a Friday? We got Monday in like three days. Dropping this on us now? Shark attack authorities. Capture and kill shark responsible for killing a man in Egypt.

Videos popped up late Thursday showing the massive animal brought to shore by heavy duty nets. Animal, not killing machine. Odd terminology. Terrifying video of the attack hit the internet from the Egyptian Red Sea. In it you can see a man identified as fighting for his life as the shark continues to attack. This is not going to do any good for me. No, it's not getting better.

Dig up stupid. I don't like sharks. That whole thing. Oh, I want to do it. That's right. I don't want to go. Swim with the sharks and get in a shark cage. Are you fucking crazy?

Me? Helpless onlookers could only watch as the man was thrown about by the shark at one point completely bringing his legs above the water in a handstand-like position. Finally, it appears the shark grabbed him by the upper torso before he disappeared below the surface. You happy? Not happy about it. I had to finish that, didn't you? This is going great. This is going great. I was listening, you know.

Stay out of the water, I guess. Some Betway bets of the day. Okay, here we go. I didn't play the video. Jack's getting a little nervous here. He made a mistake. I'm very excited. This is my favorite part when Jack knows.

Did he make a mistake? Did you F up the Betway bets? It's a moment of truth. I have no idea. And I'm very excited because today he played right into it. It's been a while. It's only every five days. There's a weekend.

It's been a while since we've been able to go back to this old jazz standard. Get the Betway up on your phone. Bet the responsible way with Betway in Ontario 19 and over. It is Betway, our proud betting partner of Barnburn and the Nation Network. I'll start with the... You want to start with yours? I do, because this is what I'm excited to see. Baseball tonight, Minnesota in Toronto.

So next week. Well, I love that press conference announcing Huska on Monday. It sounds like. Yeah. I mean, if we're guessing. Well, I mean, it's Elliot, right? Elliot's not usually wrong about that stuff. Well, it's only about 99.9.9 accuracy.

It's a good guy. You know what? We'll say. We'll talk about it next week. Yeah. You can't, because I think you're instantly, does he feel like a head coach? Does this guy feel like a head coach?

Find out pretty quick. You find out. And my guess is there's probably a number of head coaches who have been very good, chances are maybe some of them didn't feel like head coaches at the start. I'm guessing Paul Maurice probably at the time didn't feel like a head coach.

I'm guessing John Cooper, soft-spoken John Cooper, despite success, there was some who would have looked at his upbringing or his road through traditional hockey. I'm not sure this guy's a head coach. You heard the story how he got into it, eh? He needed to fill a certain amount of volunteer hours to get a posting to help some judge

because he was a lawyer coming up. There was some summer posting where he was going to help out a judge and one of the things was okay, but I'd love you to get in the community and there's this hockey team. If you wanted to help out with that, that could help your case. He just won at every level since. Yeah. All the way to the top, baby.

You like good things happening to good people. And if Ryan Huska is the new head coach of the team, then that is certainly the case. Have a great weekend, everybody. Get your bologna on. We'll be back on Monday. and, yeah, press conference. We'll have a cup.

We'll have a cup champion next week, right? It's going to be because it's 3-1 or 22 next time we do a show. 2-2. That's different universes. There you go. Have a great weekend, everybody. Adios. Appreciate you.

I would say go cats. Yeah.
