Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, welcome to our barn burner. Ryan Penderett, Warner and producer Jack, as the boom cat remains absent. I would love an update. People listening don't know what he's up to. We don't know what he's up to. Really?
Starting point is 00:00:29 We've got a general idea, but I would like some details. There's been some really good hockey. I really hope he hasn't missed any of the developments. Yeah. Week or so. for. Yeah, there's lots going on. Get you up to speed with all of it on the program today.
Starting point is 00:00:44 Also, we'll have Jay Rose Hill, friend of the show, star of the 2023, Drinky Christmas Holiday Spirit Show. Gosh, he was good. Really, really solid. Talk about big players and big spots. That's right. What a performance. Big game player.
Starting point is 00:00:58 He was excellent. We'll check in with him. I believe he's sunning himself in the Arizona desert. Well, getting sun like pool side. So, yeah, there's not strutting around naked in one of those. If he wants to, I don't know. Good God. To him.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Oh, way. I think he's with family. So I imagine he's got shorts on to the minimum. But it is really hot. We'll catch up with him in a moment. The program's brought to you by Bet365, our pals at Bet365. Our pals. At Bet, three, six, five.
Starting point is 00:01:28 They're mad at me right now. Because I keep pulling money out, baby. Oh, baby. We had the three-legged parley, the Fiala point, the Kempay point. the byfield point oh loving me some NHL playoffs uh we got a promo code for you it's nation use that very good have some fun nice time of year be responsible you know that you want to join the program jump into our comment section on youtube it's usually people bickering about dan vladar and the oilers and the curvature of the brims of my hat hats are big but if you want to get on
Starting point is 00:02:07 the show you can just do a super for chat where you attach a monetary amount to your comment. It'll show up on the show. And we'll take that money and give it directly to the youth centers of Calgary. YCC. Great cause for some great kids that get some after school support. Whether that's just a hot meal, playing with pals, meeting mentors, whatever it is, the youth centers of Calgary are there to take a little stress off the lives of young kids in our community.
Starting point is 00:02:32 The youths are our futures and such. It's supposed to sound deep. How am I doing? Yeah. I don't know. Like the politicians these days. I was listening to the radio on the way here, which is stupid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:43 It's painful. And they were talking about how kids aren't interested in doing a whole hell of a lot, especially school stuff with AI coming. It's kind of. You've been a big proponent of that. Your kid's not working and just doing AI instead of homework. So I'm sure that was. Might end up better.
Starting point is 00:03:01 That's, you're feeling good about your position on that. I'm, yeah. I'm not an educational consultant, but I don't know right you got AI for that and your kids are off or just some of them are off
Starting point is 00:03:13 they're off they're always off even when they're not off officially when they're on they're off yes they're still yeah the lights blinking I don't know it's it's wrong or off let's get into the action like how lighthearted we are yeah we're in a great great spirits good you know
Starting point is 00:03:32 just life's good jacked you know we got the draft God the draft is good on Thursday today's a great day The NFL drafts tonight. Jack is wearing his Steelers jersey. Oh, baby. Oh, I'm jacked. I did my rounds yesterday, Rhett.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Oh, you're doing some, okay. We need the jack cam going, by the way. Can we please get the jack cam? I'll come around on Sanders, guys. So you've decided that you don't hate all things, Pittsburgh and sports? He was quitting Pittsburgh yesterday. And we talked about Shudder Sanders, the son of Dion, who, uh, prime time.
Starting point is 00:04:07 apparently not incredibly humble, which does sort of, apples do fall out of the tree and level of the tree. That's all fake. And then, you know, there's some questions about how good his,
Starting point is 00:04:16 his game will, I guess, translate to the NFL game. But Jack yesterday said, I don't want any piece of this guy. Comes in today. What did you say, Jack? I've changed my mind.
Starting point is 00:04:27 I'm all in. I did my rounds. I talk to some people. I watch some highlight tapes. We're drafted our next franchise. Can I just tell you something? Yes. You're an idiot.
Starting point is 00:04:36 No, no, no, no, can I just tell you something? Never change. This is the jackalometer, Red. He was a zero out of ten yesterday. Now he's a ten. It's beautiful. I don't do a lot of research or rounds about the NFL draft, but I heard that the top rated quarterback
Starting point is 00:04:54 would have been like seven or eight last year. Yeah, it doesn't sound like a great crop. But again, you know, we always have ideas about draft classes and crops. Time will tell. In five years, Jack will know whether should there is a bum or not, maybe even three years. Maybe a crop duster. Maybe a crop duster.
Starting point is 00:05:11 We've got some results to get to, so why don't we do this? In what? Well, there's three games in the NHL last year, which I imagine. I wouldn't pay any attention to that. Aware of. Why don't we start in chronological order, meaning we're off to D.C. What's chronological mean? In the order of time.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Oh, that's K.I. If you're chronicling things, it'd be like, in the morning, I ate this. And then in lunch, I did this. and then I went for a walkway, and then I had dinner, then I went to bed. That would be chronological. Whereas if you went from, like,
Starting point is 00:05:41 greatest, you'd be like, oh my God, you should have seen the salsa I had for my nachos, but you know what? I did sleep really. It's not like in time order. I think it was so chronological. Let's go to the Habs and Capitals.
Starting point is 00:05:54 It's been an unusual series. Washington looked dominant in the first 40 minutes of game one. Last night was not that story in game two, as Logan Thompson put on a bleeping show. for the Washington cap. Sam Montembow at the other end was also excellent. The caps squeak outy three one victory. They're going back to Montreal. Down O two are the HABs. Friday night,
Starting point is 00:06:19 Bell Center, torch, failing hands. Language police, meat sandwiches. It's going to be good. We got some Logan Thompson. We got some Warner Whiteboards here to get us on our way. that Calgary kid kind of a quieter story in Vegas behind Aiden Hill, another Calgary kid.
Starting point is 00:06:46 This is late from Jake Evans, who they're thinking about a trade at the deadline. You know what? Let's keep this guy. Well, they should have traded him. We can't hit it open. Yeah, certainly can hit a post. And it looked in real time,
Starting point is 00:06:57 like this was a save from Logan Thompson. He does get two pieces of it and it stays out, but it hits the post first. More of a Jake Evans than a Logan Thompson, but he was sensational. And these are two of the best goalies going through two, three games at the, the goals saved above expected metric. It's been a very low scoring series, but mostly to do with the goaltenders.
Starting point is 00:07:17 They've been great holding their teams in it. We need some wins from Montreal just to keep the series going because it has been an enjoyable watch. I was looking Friday, they're dogs. They're at home on 365. And I think that's where we start to get a little interest in the series. The Habs go home and with that crazy wound up crowd. I like Le Habiton.
Starting point is 00:07:38 They are even money, plus 100 right now. And Pat, if you want to show up and play and put some effort in. Hey, it's Pat. We'll be sure to get you on the ice instead of just having you sit here beside me. Do you want to allow it?
Starting point is 00:07:51 This isn't Pat Roy, you're talking. No, Pat Roy. He's busy GM and probably the island now. Well, he wants that job. You're right. Lou Lamarillo, gosh, that's crazy. I don't know if we talked about it. 82 years young, huh?
Starting point is 00:08:04 Good on them, man. A hell of a career. Back to the other Pat. You're talking about Pat Linae, who, if you need his ice time for the third, Jack, you had the same. You had the same amount of shifts. Amazing. Yeah. And zero shots in those zero minutes in the third period.
Starting point is 00:08:23 It's hard to get one through. And in a tight game like that with a guy. That's the guy that could do something for you. But he's got it. he's got to play he's got another year i think it's some big money i was thinking after maybe it's biotime maybe they're like you know what we're not quite there yet let's see how the series goes but if montreal wants if they think they're it's like okay it's sound to contend they have to address this well or he should just show up and do what he can do i don't think he's not capable i think he's
Starting point is 00:08:58 doesn't give a shit 8.7 million next year and then a ufa well i wouldn't buy I don't know that just take it on for another year. Anyway, I'm not deep diving into that. All right. We got all summer for that nonsense, but line eight. But in a tight series like this? Could use them. You could be the,
Starting point is 00:09:18 you could be a god in Montreal. That's why it's disappointing. It's because you know he could at his best influence the series. If it's Jack out there for the third, you're like, yeah, he's no good. We have no expectations. Don't put him on. What we're expecting Jack to score,
Starting point is 00:09:31 but Liney, we do expect to make a difference. So Washington wins three one. They have a two, nothing series lead. Connor McMichael a pair of goals. He's been a really nice fine for them. Where was he drafted? Mid-20s. I think it was the Zeri draft or the
Starting point is 00:09:45 I was thinking about that. Did I mention that yesterday? Matt Boldie. Boldie was a good pick. 12. No, that's a little higher than the flames will probably be at this. They've done one at 12. I think that Z. William at 12. I'm just those are the ones.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Be good at the draft. Just be good at the draft. Frank. And hey, really good draft class last year. keep having a really good draft classes. Next game, Colorado, Dallas. This was the emotional one. Gabe Landisog, uh,
Starting point is 00:10:14 over a thousand days between games. Oh, lucky to live that long. First shift absolutely bulldozes Miko Rantan. You're like, this place is jumping. The warmups are chanting his name. He's got his kids out there.
Starting point is 00:10:28 His kids weren't even old enough to remember him playing hockey. That's a long it's been. You're on the glass banging. Oh, emotional. All the fields. was awesome. But we are going to have to do a little Warner whiteboard as this game needed overtime.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Well, let's go to the first game. Why nothing Colorado? Let's see what's happening here. Gosh, you're looking good. There's a lot of whiteboarding. All because of that.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Well, we like it. And you know what? It's like the littlest of mistakes in a regular season game. Whatever. This is the playoffs. Now, this one's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:10:59 It's four on four. Valencia just literally gets everyone confused. until he's on a breakway. Everyone has a man at one point here. Where? Stop. Who is that? Is that again?
Starting point is 00:11:15 Who's 85? Dushin. Dushin. Thank you. Yeah. So everyone's got a guy. Where are you going? And that's Tom Harley goes out.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Oh. Oh, you can't throw your arms up and discuss with anyone other than yourself. You know, it reminds me of watch Dushie. as he comes down in the middle and then, oh, at the dot. It's LeBron to J.R. Smith. Yeah. In the players,
Starting point is 00:11:43 I know, I'm not always supposed to be there, but you take them. Natchewski, huge goal. Place goes nuts. Oh. Kind of felt like they were going to run away this one. They did not. This was tight. This was low scoring. Dallas would tie this up. And in
Starting point is 00:12:01 the third again, and off to overtime, we go. Let's take a peek. at the OT winner. Someone had to be up to 1 in this series. Laid it ahead, Marchman, turning it off the wing. Mason Marchman on the forehand, pass, shot. Score! Score!
Starting point is 00:12:22 The Stars have done it! That is two overtime wins in a row for the Stars, and Jake Ottinger has been great. This high-scoring Aves team has been quieted, muted in games two and three. It's a hell of a series. We said that these are two teams that could stand. finally cut bound. And we were hoping that the stars weren't so banged up that they couldn't hang
Starting point is 00:12:43 around. They're hanging around and they're doing better than hanging around. They're up to one with a chance to come home with a stranglehold, hold if they can win game four. It's a hell of a play by Rantman there. Like he just out muscles this man. It gets it out. Those guys retired.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Taves plays this pretty well. He's physical. I'm watching it and I'm thinking about all the critique you've had for Bouchard. And I'm like, this is what you do. You've got to neutralize the guy. Eliminate him. Don't let that guy beat you. Time and space.
Starting point is 00:13:08 And he's a really. really nice play from Marchman and again there's a tiny little window there grabs it rips it yeah i can't decide if i want to save but it's just a hell of a shot or i mean sometimes you tip your cap and you could have a harder back check but you also had a dman there like look it's a good play oh blackwell had a chance to do it again i thought he was doing it back to back do have the amount of time dallas has been leading in the 70 seconds we do have that tweet i thought somewhere so dallas now has more wins in the series then they have minutes leading in the series.
Starting point is 00:13:44 That's wild. So the two wins came in overtime. So they have zero seconds leading in each of those games. And I think they might have had a lead for a moment in, is it game one or two? Or was it last night they scored. Yeah, last night they went. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Game two. Game two, they must have a lead for a heartbeat. Stars now have more wins in this series than minutes spent leading. We need Colorado to win game four. just to keep this Evie Stevie. Yeah, we want seven out of this. Yeah, I don't like the 3-1 going back to Dallas. Hayskinin's hanging around the team.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Robertson isn't. I don't know that that means he's going to enter this series. But if you got some chips on the Dallas Square on the game board, this is really good. Without your best forward and your best defenseman, you're here. They're good to one. And I'm not saying that missing those guys isn't hurting, but you can just, they're committed.
Starting point is 00:14:41 And if you're Colorado, they had a double minor call with 40 seconds left in this hockey game. Dallas did. Yeah, the power play for the Avalanche. Sorry. So they've got a ton of time. The final 40 seconds of regulation, okay, didn't score, moved it around a bit. Little accidentsical, little lack of urgency. I don't know if it's like.
Starting point is 00:15:05 And I'll give you one more thing. Sorry. Gabe Lannisogs out there to start overtime on that parable unit hasn't had a lot of reps there a bit of a botched zone entry and they just never really got set up and started shelling the Dallas net
Starting point is 00:15:20 like you hope they would with a chance to end the game and I think this sort of tied into what you were saying which is like look this Lannisg story is crazy but expectations are important here maybe that wasn't the time to elevate them yet I can't believe he played 13 minutes Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:36 I thought I saw at the end of the game. They had 13 minutes and change that he played. I was like, that's heavy for never a thousand days in between NHL games. Yeah, now he's been ramping up for a couple of years. I don't care. That's playoff hockey. And I saw him bauble that one play. And I'm like, man, if they keep that in there, now you've got McCar, McKinnon, Natchez, himself.
Starting point is 00:16:00 You know what? You try to score and win it on power play. If you're a Colorado fan, they had their chance to, win it with that power play and they didn't they didn't generate a whole bunch that's it's kind on it's on them it was there for it to take so give the stars credit all right let us get to our guest hotline it is a thursday not usually a guest day but hey anytime you can welcome in one of the stars of the nation network we we got to do it crystal waters presents the hotline it's a crystal clear choice for all residential plumbing heating and cooling services excuse me their mission to be the

Starting point is 00:16:58 There it is from Least Nation, but more importantly, from the 2023 show, the first star Jay Rose Hill, ladies and gentlemen. Rosie, how are you? Still recovering from not being able to take part in this seasons, but I think I'm going to make up for it here in 2025. It's on my list. That's for sure. We love a good comeback. What's up, boy? It's impressive, but Rose Hill back to the drinking show, that would also, that would move us. How are you? Where are you? We need an update. It's been a while.
Starting point is 00:17:26 I am good. I have just the life of a hockey parent. As you know, I am everywhere, and I have to be everywhere all at once. But things are good, man. Leif's up to rip and watching some playoff hockey. It seems like it comes every other night's quick. I know you guys aren't quite in that same boat. Unfortunately, I was rooting for you fellas on the Flamers. But things are pretty solid in Leif's land.
Starting point is 00:17:48 You on vacation? What's going on here? I see the art back there. Can we divulge your location? Are you in witness protection here? No, I wish. I'm just hotel room in it. I can't.
Starting point is 00:17:59 This spring hockey man. man, I don't know who took control of it. I don't know how we let the reins to the psycho hockey parents, but it is endless and I can't be everywhere, and lacrosse is no better. And I just live vicariously through my kids now, buddy. I thought you knew that. No, I did.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I saw you in a rink last spring because I think my nephew was playing against one of your kids. And we had a chat like, how did this happen? And I'm like, you played in the NHL. How much spring did you play, Jay? And you're like, not. It didn't exist. It was crazy. We played other sports.
Starting point is 00:18:28 And I'm like, and so do the other parents? that never played hockey. Do they ask you? Like, no, no, no. These psychos are running the asylum, aren't they? Well, I found out firsthand. To me, it's just too much of one thing. I love it. My kids are happy. It's awesome. But it's too much of one thing. And somehow the people who only want to do that one thing are in control of everything now. And I just look around when all these schedules come out. And it's like, oh, we have a Friday open. Better shove a exhibition game that'll end up winning or losing 19 to 1 in fucking, And Settler and I'm just like, this is wild boys. This is too much. But I feel like I'm just speaking to the wall half the time. People love it.
Starting point is 00:19:06 We can go to the park and they can play tag and we can drink a couple beers and just hang out guys. None of that. You needed an excuse to get together. No time for that. You got to put miles on, baby. The further you travel, the better it is? The better.
Starting point is 00:19:19 The further your kid's going to go for sure. Yeah. Totally. The greater the disappointment when he isn't the next Bedard. The Leafs look good right now, don't they? I would say they look pretty good, man. And they look, we were talking this morning. They've, they've got layers, they've got depth, they've got different positional things.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Obviously, they've always kind of had the big boys with their potential of offense. And I think they've shored up a lot of other things. And those guys look more confident. They're in a pretty good place. I mean, obviously the Sends haven't played a lot of playoff hockey lately. They've got some inexperience. And if they are lucky enough to get through the second round, they'll run into some powerhouse outfits. But there's a lot of reason people are saying this team looks different.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Okay, so we'll get to the news of the day and then we'll get to react to the first two games a little more. Max Patcher Ready skating on a third line with Max Domi. He has not played since December, if I'm correct, and a guy that has lost most of the last, the prior two seasons, I think with back-to-back Achilles or ACLs, I forget which. But it's been a while since we saw a healthy, I guess, regular rep Max Patcher Ready. But that guy was really good. Is this the right time to make a tweak? Or are we reading too much into just a morning skate? no i think they're tweaking it patches is going to be in and nick robertson is coming out i don't think
Starting point is 00:20:32 it's quite to december i think it's late january is the last time patch ready played um and people are making a big deal about that like oh but to me every single player in the league has to go through an off season every single year and then ramp back up to nchl speed pretty damn fast every single year so he's been skating he's been staying ready it hasn't it's not december it's been um two months i i i just I think with his level of experience and the veteran that he is, I think he can adjust on the fly. They needed to make a change. And the way he's been playing this year,
Starting point is 00:21:05 kind of reinventing himself in a lot of ways. I think by necessity, being on a PTO, making that team on a PTO, and he's been playing a physical game. I mean, I bet you have four of the five biggest hits of the season for the Maple Leafs were Max Pat Charedes. And I think he can invigorate that line. Like I said, the depth and the bottom six looks as good as it's ever been.
Starting point is 00:21:27 and I think that Max Patriot is a part of that. So I think he'll make it impact tonight. We haven't, I mean, we watch. I'm not as in depth with leaf coverage as you guys. Is Rob, is the line not playing well? Like,
Starting point is 00:21:38 I'm not worried about Patrick Reddy coming in or out. I just wonder about the, is it a necessity or just a, I don't think so, but I don't think Craig Brubay thinks, I don't think he's superstitious. I know he's not. I don't remember that from playing for him.
Starting point is 00:21:55 He needs to make a, a change. I mean, Nick Robertson was not very good in game two. He took a crucial penalty, which led to a goal, which allowed them back in the game. And I think that a change with for patchy ready for Nick Robertson is going to make the team better in game three. Simple as that. Again, it's not about superstitions. I don't think chief's a guy who just says, I absolutely cannot change the lineup if we have won the game previously. Some coaches are like that, like completely where it's like, geez, this guy's serious? Like what, like, you're superstitious about your smelly socks and stuff.
Starting point is 00:22:28 Like make a change if you need to make a change. And that's what Brubay's doing. And again, like I said, I think patches will make that third line a little better. Okay, so how do we get here? When you look at what your expectations for the series are versus what happened, who's stood out for you? Because if you said Matthews is going to score, it's like, yeah, we'd expect them to score. Oh, Tana's been good defensive.
Starting point is 00:22:46 We expected that. But there have been some guys that have impressed a ton. Who tops the list for you amongst the leaves? Well, maybe it falls in line with the expectation thing that you talk about. but I mean, Anthony Stolars has has stood on his head and been really, really solid. So I guess you could say that's expected. I expected that. I've been saying for a long time, I think he's going to start in the playoffs to be the number one and be really good.
Starting point is 00:23:07 You can count on one hand how many bad performances, even maybe bad goals that he's led. And he's been so solid. People have not been paying attention to the level that I think they should have with Anthony Stollars. But Morgan Riley, I mean, he's got two goals on the board already. And he's kind of had a struggle of a season. We talked today about Brandon Carlo coming in from Boston. I think that was a really solid move by Tree Living to bring him in. He's got a lot of experience in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:23:33 And I think he really settles Morgan Riley down. It seems to annoy me that Morgan, everyone talks about who can we bring in to make Morgan Riley better? And I'm always like, shouldn't Morgan Riley make his partner better? Everyone speaks about who's going to make Morgan Riley better. I mean, he's a seven-half million dollar defenseman. He's been an all-star. He should make anyone he plays with better. yet they're scrambling to find guys.
Starting point is 00:23:54 So it's been annoying and he hasn't been up to people's expectation this year. But whether he's getting the bounces or finding his mojo to have two goals, has got to give him a little bit of confidence here at the early part of this series. Yeah, no question. How different has this club been under Craig Barruby than it was under Sheldon Keefe last year? And I don't want to you to say this coach is good. This is bad sort of thing. But more like there's been some maturity.
Starting point is 00:24:18 I think each series they lose, there's probably some things to take away. from them from the playing group. They had the weird migraines with Nealander. Matthews wasn't 100%. Wool looked great and then he was suddenly out. There's just a lot of bad luck last year in a series where I thought they did out play Boston. But how different is this crew under a Brube now?
Starting point is 00:24:37 Yeah, I think even going back to the preseason, you could see how they're trying to establish a DNA that's a little bit different. I think that's a little bit more conducive to winning in the playoffs. And to me, the big thing is, you know, he calls it north-south hockey. But it's those 50-50. that, ah, this play that I want to make might be a little bit low percentage.
Starting point is 00:24:56 So I'm going to avoid it. They used to make that play all day. Even when the percentages were like, nil, they'd make it all day. And what I've really noticed through an 82 game slate in the first two games of playoffs is the odd man rushes. They have numbers. They're in lanes.
Starting point is 00:25:10 They're not scrambling. They're in position. And they've really tidied up, you know, the odd man rush is going the other way. Those used to be a heyday against the Leafs. And they would try to outscore their problems and win seven, six. And we just, we just all know that. road that that leads to and they seem to have cleaned that up they can win a game you know they can they can score two goals and and win two one or win three two and overtime and they're doing it that way
Starting point is 00:25:34 instead of trying to be fancy and having all these breakdowns and odd man rushes and the things that you just don't want to see especially in the playoffs they've cleaned that up so much and I just feel like everyone to a man from the big boys all the way down through the D they've adopted a mentality that I think is is working for them I think they were sorely missing. Play's been unreal. Was it a matter of time with all this skill? I look back to that Boston series. They could hardly score on the power play.
Starting point is 00:26:01 And here they are through two games. I think they got, what, five power play markers, more? I don't know. Yeah, it was an anomaly. Like a head scratcher, we were talking about what the problem was. But throughout the beginning part of the season, there was a good chunk of time where, I mean, they couldn't gain entry into the zone.
Starting point is 00:26:17 And they tried something different every time. It was pretty clear that they were winging it. They didn't have a plan. They didn't have a structure. And we're looking at the powers that be saying, what are you guys going to do anything about this? Like you said, there's way too much talent on that,
Starting point is 00:26:32 on that first unit to do anything but damage. And it cost them their season last year. They were 5% on the power play. I think they're like a couple for 21 opportunity, like pathetic. And I'm far from a power play specialist, as you know, but it has clicked. They have found it.
Starting point is 00:26:49 They have figured each other out. And, you know, they're at the five forwards. for the most part. And people had their question marks about that early on, but it's working. And that top line, like Nyes and Matthews and Mariner, what they don't get enough credit for is being pretty defensively responsible.
Starting point is 00:27:05 And it's not as bad as it sounds when you hear five guys on the power play. Those guys can take care of business and cover their lanes and cover their ass and not be caught, you know, five men low and whatnot. It's not blowing up in their face and they're scoring. LA's running a five man unit too. Because Menko's come in and they're, using Campi Fiala, he, Copatar, somebody else. It's like this, I feel like the tide's kind of turning.
Starting point is 00:27:28 At one point, there was 2D on every power play and just three forwards. And now the standard is four and one, but half the frick, we said it the other day, half the D are forwards anyway, too. And it's like, look, like, okay, you might allow a shorty every month, but like you got five guys with great offensive instincts out there. That's kind of the point of power play. Just start to implement that with the kids there. Just spring hockey, five men forward.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Not even five man forward. just there's no positions just wherever you end up play. Position of Lasaki. Oh, everyone's a superstar. Everyone's going to score goals and nobody has to play defense ever. I mean, that's the, that's the game plan, baby. You know that. I don't know how
Starting point is 00:28:05 much of the oilers you've caught. Rhett has had a few, he's got a bit of a heater here taking runs. They're making it so easy just to have hot takes and just rip them. It's great. Yeah, like it's a playoffs. Like, defensemen are allowed to play the body, right? I don't know, I'm putting you on the spot here,
Starting point is 00:28:22 but we're trying to figure out what the hell Evan Bouchard is or isn't and why it looks so bad right now, why it looks so good a playoff ago, and is it at home, is it him, is it body language, is he a weirdo that we're all misunderstanding? What the hell's happened here? Like, he's a turnover machine that it's really hurting the Oilers,
Starting point is 00:28:41 and they played him 28 minutes game one, because they don't, they're out other options. Oh, they're missing the guys that they had last year. They got top four game in there. They've lost and they're trying to, you know, facilitate the same type of play with so much less to work with. And the guy that you were calling an $11, $12 million defenseman last year, I mean, he looks like his controller disconnects on the Xbox.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Sometimes he's just looking and has no reaction, gets scored on. And then it looks really ugly. There's a couple of like world-class lowlights that people can't even believe what they're watching considering it's playoff hockey. And, you know, if you re-sign that guy to anywhere, what he wants, you're going to have him and, R&L Nurse at like $18 million when you look at the Leafs, they've got Tanev, McCabe, OEL, and
Starting point is 00:29:25 Carlo coming in about $16 million. I mean, it's shocking. I've been kind of vocal all year long, and I get the betting volume is what gets some of these lines going. But for the Edmonton earlier is to be favorites for the Stanley Cup for as long as they were this year, I think is a mockery. You're relying on two guys. You've lost key components of your D. And who expects Skinner to be what he was last year at certain points of the playoffs. I certainly didn't, and he's showing right now that they've sorely been missing a goaltender. So, yeah, shambles for the oilers. Okay, I go one last one, and then we'll let you and Rhett figure out spring hockey and solve
Starting point is 00:30:00 the world's problems. If the Ottawa centers make this a long series, not a short series, because I think we've seen the formula for the short series, leave stay hot in the power play, get better goaltaining than the Sends. How do the Sends get back in this thing? They do have home ice. They have not lost at home yet. You know, you can use the adage you like. You're not in trouble until you lose at home. Tonight's her at home, they need to win. What do they have to do differently? Well, I think scoring first is huge for them.
Starting point is 00:30:23 I don't have the exact stats right in front of me, but scoring first, they have a phenomenal record, and scoring first at home, it's even better. So I think they're going to be looking for a really hot start. They need to play 60 minutes and they need to stay out of the box. As you mentioned, they're a little bit inexperienced. I think they're real horny to be back in the playoffs and thought they were going to run the Possee Maple Leafs out of the barn.
Starting point is 00:30:42 Just a kind of a rookie move trying to do that in the playoffs. They paraded the penalty ball. Um, tonight they're going to have their, their home fans behind them. They're going to be excited. The barn will be filled with Maple Leaf fans too. They'll probably try to quiet them down. But I think having some of their veterans step up in leadership and show them how to play playoff hockey while staying on that side of the line.
Starting point is 00:31:03 So they're not parade into the box and giving that potent power play their opportunities. I think it's going to be pretty huge for him. I think this is going to be close to 50, 50 split. Maybe it's 40. Do you think? In the rink. But if you're part of that 40% of the travel, another city away, you're going to be I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:18 I'm trying to think back to the early 2000s when they were playing. I don't know. What was it in Buffalo when you were playing there? Because I know you had a series of the Leafs, they would cross the border for those. Could they get like a third of the barn blue? No. The Sabres fans would always give up tickets when the Leafs came to town for regular season.
Starting point is 00:31:39 But when we played them into playoffs, like, and in 99, there was no ticket. I was going to say, the secondary market was a little bit. 90s, yeah. Well, I think, I mean, you can look back to that Canadian Tire Center. They couldn't fill it up in like 2016 or 17 for a playoff game.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Pretty unbelievable. And I don't know, but compared to when I was playing for them, I feel like the Leafs fans travel even better than they used to. I don't know if that's because it's so much harder to get a ticket for, you know, to be in the Scotia Bank Center or what and they just jump on opportunities. But, I mean, their second last game of the season, obviously different than a playoff game. but I was hearing their chance louder than it was. Like, it's wild.
Starting point is 00:32:18 You forget what building you're in when the Leafs score, when they travel and try to pack the barn. So we were talking about that this morning, really interested to see what percentage it is, blue and white, and it's going to piss some people off on Ottawa, I think, regardless. You know, it makes for a better environment. Like we, in Calgary, there's a few annual games.
Starting point is 00:32:37 It doesn't matter, you can throw the standings out. It's just once a year Montreal visits, once a year Toronto visits, a couple times a year it's Edmonton and the Vancouver one can get to that level too. And it's just the games are just better. The fans are more invested. You feel momentum swings more. It gets the players engaged.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Wow, you know what? It's like, Rosie, you go into a dead building. Hard to get the emotions up. You get into a building that's buzzing. Let's play. Yeah, well, we did our nation vacation. We went down to Nashville and cruising down Broadway before the game. And I was like, oh, my God, there was a lot of blue and white down here.
Starting point is 00:33:08 And it's fun. Like, we're in there. We're watching. we're rowdy we go we get off to a two nothing start i'm looking back at these people laughing at the mocking them thinking i'm in the driver's seat they get five unanswered scored on them it was horrendous and they were piling on us so bad it was merciless it it made it super fun and a game at that time of the season where i don't think you'd have half the energy if there wasn't that that fan back and forth that's what it's about all about anyways it's all your fault it's all your
Starting point is 00:33:35 fault they do a great job there that's honestly if you haven't seen a game in national i think that's a top five barn for how much fun you're going to have that yeah they do it right it's and you can just step right off broadway right into the bridgestone arena it's phenomenal there's it doesn't hurt i i i think you guys on your flames vacations there might be a spot to go if you haven't already bender's done a lot of damage in nashville it wasn't with flames a there was a issues broken ribs lost wallet wrestling with n-h-l missed a show you could in the lobby yeah we did all right we That sounds like Vegas for me. I promised I'll never go back.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Oh, I got to hear that story sooner than later. We'll do it off the air, Jay. That's what we'll do. I believe it. I believe it. Enjoy that spring hockey. Congratulations, congratulate all those kids on your team of already being NHLers.
Starting point is 00:34:25 They're all going to make it. Maybe they're all going to make it. That's your agent card. You'll be representing just thousands of them. It'll be awesome. All going to be making NHL money. They're definitely not going to be grinding in the coast for $520 a week. That's great.
Starting point is 00:34:39 All of my clients would end up in the Southern professional league i'm sure thanks buddy appreciate it boys talk you later all right there's jose hill uh what i'm just trying to think uh it's leif's nation the show's on but it's morning take no leaps morning take least morning take thank you yeah just blanked all of a sudden uh jays always great on leave stuff of course played there played philly he and colton orr used to run show pretty good for the leaps because you could look across and be like hey ors he's got him Not quite the Oliwa Chris Simon tandem. You guys had no four, but not bad either.
Starting point is 00:35:17 There's some toughness there. The guest hotline brought you by Crystal Waters, Plumbing and Heeding. They're here for you, Barberner customers. Need new hot water heater. You need new AC, furnace. Got discounts for you and upgrades and up to a thousand bucks in them. Make sure you reach out, say hello to them. All solutions, solutions for all budgets,

It's your crystal clear choice for home comfort 403, 219, 4100, or just go to the web, Crystal, Clear, Calgary.com. What's up? I was actually just thinking about Seattle. And if we had mentioned that they needed a new coach.
Starting point is 00:36:08 You know what? There has been some news that sort of slipped out over the weekend and I wasn't here Monday and I don't, what the glamorillo got run. There's a Monday afternoon I want to say. Yeah, I don't even know. And it's not, I shouldn't say got run. His contract was up. It's time.
Starting point is 00:36:23 82. Dan Balsma one year in. That's a weird one, right? What is going on? And now Jason Botterill is, uh, GM. And they fired Ron Francis up to president. That's the gig you want. Yeah, that's even better than paid leave.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Mm-hmm. Was it Chris Jury that got an extension? Jerry got an extension, which is a little bit odd. Which we felt had to happen. I don't think it was all Laviolette. Poor Laviolette's fault. What did I do? He's like started last draft after we went to the semi-final.
Starting point is 00:36:55 The labs, they got to play better after we threatened to trade ball. I, yeah. One more game last night we did not get to. I don't think. No, I'm trying to remember the schedule. Later game. Late. Out West.
Starting point is 00:37:08 It's got to be out west, Ryan, because chronologically, it moves east to west. Sun rotating west. Circadian rhythms. Yeah. Rises in the east sets in the west. Vegas. Vegas. Was it Vegas.
Starting point is 00:37:23 It wasn't Vegas. Sharks aren't in. San Jose, Ducks. Utah's not in. Yeah. They just fired their coach. Vancouver.
Starting point is 00:37:31 It's got to be back coup. It's good. No, no. Okay. They're working on the Hughes deal. Out of ideas, Jack. Whatever it is. Let's play some highlights.
Starting point is 00:37:39 It's the late game last night. Oh, the Kings. Of course the Kings. Okay, let's pick it up. What nothing, LA at home over. Early. Edmonton. How about that?
Starting point is 00:37:53 Whoa, that's an open lane. Hang on, Jack. Wind it back. We need the whiteboard. All right. There we go, Rhett. Let's break this down here, everybody. Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Nice and slow, Jack. Okay. so we're against the wall. They've lost sight of the puck. Three on two there for the king. How far back can you go? Is this the start? This is the start.
Starting point is 00:38:16 I think the replay might wind of us back. All right. Shall we walk in. Go ahead. Stop. Oh, Darnell. Look at Darnell busting his ass to get back. That's great effort.
Starting point is 00:38:27 That's playoff hockey right there, Ryan. That's, you know what I mean? When you're down one and the guys walking in for a shot, you give it all. You just. Give it all. You dive in there, do anything to disrupt this play. Because it's two on one.
Starting point is 00:38:42 That's right. And your goal is a SIP. Probably should have been a two on, but it did turn on. So anyway, carry on slowly now. Now, stop.
Starting point is 00:38:49 I didn't even notice. No wonder. And I meant, I thought Darno came back real hard, but apparently he's not. But you know why? He's got full faith in the bush bomb. Oh,
Starting point is 00:38:59 the bush bombs right there. I will deal with this. I got this. You should start heading the other way. Because after I break up this two. one, I'll dish, I'll send a dish. We'll have numbers. A caprice of.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Yeah. A little sauce. I got this. Okay, go ahead. Oh, where are you going? Actually, it's not false. Kind of get some not to dry there. And you kind of, oh, I'll get that puck.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Oh, it's in? Oh, shit. Oh, well. Now, there is another version of this video. Maybe we get it in the replay jack, so let it keep going, but you can watch. That's in. I'll go look. Yeah, I think that it was the.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Look. He's pulling it out. A fresh one had more. Darnell, we pick it up as it's on the wall, but the play actually starts. That's usually what happens. And everyone's accounted for.
Starting point is 00:39:48 They've got numbers there, but suddenly it's a two on one out of a pile in the wall. Because Bouchard is the obvious, you know, he's got the bull's eye on him on that play. He's kind of a no man's land. Well, it is a two on one and I do tell,
Starting point is 00:39:59 like if I'm, I'm watching that. The goal, take the shot. The goal he's got to have the shot. Now, I don't know if you want to back up all that way. And you could slide across and take,
Starting point is 00:40:07 take away the pass and blah, blah, blah, play it differently. But it's not all his fault. Everything was under control. And then it was a two on one in tight. And Darnell Nurse is off the hook until we get the other version. But he will be on the hook when we see. I don't think Darnell Nurse or Bouchard are ever off the hook because I'm sure if we show some more highlights. There are a few more in this game.
Starting point is 00:40:30 So we'll let Jack get this version and then we'll go from that. That made it to nothing. It was interesting. Not unlike game. one. It felt like LA was going to run away. And it was like, uh-oh, don't leave the door cracked open a bit because Connor and Leon are going to pry this thing wide open and all those other dusts, dusters will follow them through. Uh, but this five-man power play, Kempe, Kopitar, Fiala, Kuzmanko has been an absolute enigma. You got it, Jack? Let's watch it the more extended
Starting point is 00:40:59 cut here. The barn burner exclusive extended. Now here we go. Pucks down below the goal line. Two oilers down there. Everything looks great. We're all good. Carrying. Stop. Back it up a little bit. It's like, how did we get caught there? More, more, more, more. All right. More, one more. I just want, I want to see where the puck is coming from. Do you know what I mean? Like, clearly it's rimmed all the way around because is that it in the corner there? Yeah, it's just under the VRBO sign. You just feel like you might want to skate and go get it.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Okay. Go ahead. Sorry. Don't care. Nurse completely stops. Just standing there. And that's the highlight that's so indicting for 25 because he's got everything in control and then he just doesn't hit.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Oh. I didn't compete for the puck. I didn't keep my feet moving. I didn't put a body on anyone. I didn't make a read. I'm standing still. I didn't stay between the puck and the net. And my poor D partner is just absolutely going to get aerated over this.
Starting point is 00:42:09 25, be better. No, don't. This is great. It's only nine in a quarter of year. That's going to feel a little bit less with inflation every year. If you're playing hockey in the playoffs, you can't spend that. We need that money in the economy. And if you're playing hockey, you're not spending it.
Starting point is 00:42:26 So get dusted and go spend. Could be a really nice summer to be a cart girl. So that was the two nothing goal. It's three two though. The Oilers build it up to three nothing. Get back in. 3-1 doesn't feel good. 3-2 is that they're doing it again.
Starting point is 00:42:43 It did feel that way, right? When it was 3-2, you're like, oh, God. They will never not feel that way until this team is eliminated. You don't want to one-go-le-le-leet. If you're up to a empty net with two minutes left, you're freaking out against you. Because it's just they have two of the best players on Earth. Not much after that, but that's what they have.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Let's go 3-2, one-goal game. Everyone's going to play in their best year, right? Well, you're right on the cusp. Yeah. Vic Arvinson. That didn't work. Okay. Oh, now that's Vic who they brought in for the from LA. Acumen now, dear. I kind of feel bad. She's just trying to mean to do that. It rolls off this thing. But back at Hop Jack. Oh, Jack. Come on. Jack. We're trying to watch. Stop. Okay. We're in great.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Everything's under control. Really good. Three, two. We've coming back. All right. What happens? into that puck he throws it up the middle it immediately gets slapped back but how stop pink it goes off the skate of copatat okay so i couldn't see it so there it is there so it bounces back in shitty block's copatar right here yeah and you know what it's like no worries no i still got it but it seems like he's little frazzled because now he's like oh shoot there's my buddy and i got to turn this around what who is that skating into him for uh his teammate cool yeah it's copatar with the pressure and coelax's de partner
Starting point is 00:44:09 just pure panic at that point yeah and then that's campay man camp he could shoot it i was listening on the radio at this point i actually watching him kempa in l.a i think he's having he's he's doing okay he's living a good life real good life yeah he's a hell of a player if yeah there's i don't think there's a lot of stress in kempa's life whoops shoots it all bob stopper was not happy with this I was listening. I think it's Bob Stauffer that's on the radio with... Does color with Mooner. With Camoon.
Starting point is 00:44:46 He was not happy. We might need a save. Yeah, and that's the thing is like they're giving up too many great A's, but your goalie is allowed to stop. It's okay. Like, Mickey Kepersoff, he didn't care what the grade letter was. No, I'd turn it over left and right. Like, that'd be a good time for one.
Starting point is 00:45:04 And Kempay's unbelievable score. You can't put it on Skinner, but it's like, yeah, if you did make the same, It's still a one goal game. If you make that save, I. Good for you. They may win the hockey game. Totally. But instead they didn't.
Starting point is 00:45:18 It was one more after that on Skinner. He gets the hook. Pickard comes in. And you're laughing all the way. He gets lit up by Kempai as well. Six to your final. Kempay, two goals, two helpers, four points. Onzee passed his prime Kopitar, four point game.
Starting point is 00:45:34 It's been a decade of me. Decade. This guy's slowing down. Very, very good. he's slowing down very slowly. Yeah. Still moving at an incredible rate. You know what? They've got all those longevity clinics out in California.
Starting point is 00:45:47 There it is. The vitamin D. Yes. Probably, uh, he walks his dog every day. He's out. Everyone's in a good mood. Salt water. My God, these lucky bastards.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yeah. Why did Retchie ever come back? Should have just. Shut. Huh? Yeah. You buy a house. You're there.
Starting point is 00:46:05 You may as well stay. Get some phony baloney job with the Kings. That's what they all do. Come on. I should go Blake. You should. Remember when your kid didn't know who he was? That's pretty fun. Do you remember the story, Jack?
Starting point is 00:46:18 Brett was living in Buffalo. No. And Buffalo's in some tournament. And of course, the LA Junior Kings are. Yeah, the Kings are playing savers. That's what it was.
Starting point is 00:46:26 And our kids are practicing at the rink that's across where all the teams stay. The hotel's there. The practice ranks all right attached to the big rank, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Boys are downstairs at Tim's getting a coffee and I don't think of my coffee donuts or whatever the hell else they're getting and I come down and I'm like Blake standing there beside them so I start talking to them and I introduced the boys the kids to Rob Blake yeah hey boys this is this is Mr. Rob Blake yeah so we go on at ice
Starting point is 00:46:56 at practice and I could tell by the look when I said it they're like thanks coach for introducing us to some fucking stranger and I'm like do you guys know who that is Just blank. Blank screens. Not a clue. Like when we asked Jack about who some country and western artists from the 40s is. And even if you don't know him as a player, he's the GM of the... All these kids go into the NHL.
Starting point is 00:47:24 They don't know enough about the NHL. Dumb. Yeah. Dumb. Whatever. Anyway, he likes it in L.A., I think. I think King... Sorry, the Kings and their employees like Rob Blake, they enjoy it there.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Love the organization, wishing them all the best. You know who else loves that? L.A. Cousmanco. Oh, Cousies crushing it in L.A. Okay, so Jack said this last night, and we need to get into it. What has gotten in to André Kuzmenko? Was this always there? I didn't see it in Philly.
Starting point is 00:47:52 I certainly didn't see it this year in Calgary. We saw it last year in Calgary. We saw it the first year in Vancouver. Not the second year of Vancouver. What is happening? Walk us through. Nervous. He's not a self-motivator.
Starting point is 00:48:03 That's what it is. You come and play here, and it's November. First year in Vancouver. Got to prove it. Nervous, excited. Got to prove it. All new, emotional. The emotions come easy.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Yeah. Year two, I got this. 39 is a rookie. Put me down for 50, coach. I'm over to Calgary. Oh, Jesus. I just got traded. That's never happened.
Starting point is 00:48:30 I'm nervous, excited, emotional again. That's all right. Come back to next year. Got this coach. I had like a half goal a game last year. put me down for 50 again anyway the emotion of the playoffs he's feeding up he likes playing and he likes having fun and when the emotion is there he's one hell of a player he just can't generate it for himself they got him a really nice spot too oh for sure five forward power play
Starting point is 00:48:56 units like this is the power play right here he's not a grind it out no but the hands are just electric i know that's what i'm saying when you set him up with the right guys and create some excitement he wants to make plays and have fun the other thing about him he doesn't move terribly well. I don't think he's a bad skater. He's more of stationary with hands flying around. And with all the guys around him, that could work. But if he has to be the central figure on a team,
Starting point is 00:49:20 it's just so easy to shut down. Yeah. And that five-man powerplay, scary. Like, just by-field, Fiala, Kempe, Kopitar, Kuzmanko. The Oilers penalty kill, not unreal. Last year. But even going into the player, I thought I heard. I'll look it up.
Starting point is 00:49:38 I just know that from last. Last year's, they were talking about it in the post game last night. I know last year, it would have been McLeod, Fogel, Ekholm. I just, I don't know about Brobert, but like totally new personnel in the playoffs. And the only, the playoff to playoff comp is that L.A. struggled against this penalty kill to score last year at this time. I think L.A. is probably a step better offensively. Oh, for sure. But the Oilers penalty kill is taking a monster step back.
Starting point is 00:50:05 There's no denying that. I like a pickard comment. It's coming in. Cal is coming in. I'm going to go regular seasons here for the penalty kill and see where the I just thought I remembered and I got CTE so I don't always remember right. But I thought they said the last half of the year. They're right in the middle of the pack of the league.
Starting point is 00:50:22 They're 16th in the league, 78%. I can't do the last half of the year. That may be true. It doesn't matter. But yeah, like it's an average penalty kill over the course of a full season and well below average here in the postseason. I mean, they're getting absolutely torched.
Starting point is 00:50:35 The LA Kings are clicking. well that's actually not about that's 24 25 anyway are they killing off 78% too how's that right that can't be right okay maybe it's exact same it looks elite LA zipping it around uh that was the final game 6-2 LA beats edmonton is there any like what did Craig Conray learn from the Andre Kuzmenko experience like if you if you if you're in another Eli Lindholm's spot. Do you take that player? Do you flip him sooner? I think he would learn. I think he would learn that sometimes you just have to make a trade
Starting point is 00:51:16 and accept the fact that you might not win it. Because I don't think Kuzmenko was going to resurrect or start playing like he is in L.A. here. And he didn't in Philly. And it's the same with Sam Bennett. I don't think if Sam Bennett stayed here, you're ever getting playoff Sam Bennett to that level, right? Certainly not. I don't believe so.
Starting point is 00:51:37 I could be wrong, but I think Sam Bennett needed a change and he found a spot and it's, it's gone well for him. I think Kuzmanko, if you hang on to him longer, I don't think you're getting more. I don't think he's going to play better and you might have to chew on the whole contract. Yeah, I think we looked at it this year around Christmas and you're like, what could you even get from? Exactly. I don't know. And he wasn't going to change on two goals. I don't understand how much, by the way.
Starting point is 00:52:06 you got close but he didn't get over 13 and a half. It doesn't be. Close. This account. Kind of hungry. I know you something. But maybe the move was, and this is totally hindsight. So I'm not saying Craig should have done this.
Starting point is 00:52:20 I'm just saying if you could look back and be like, what was the moment? He scores, I believe it was 14 goals and 29 games after the trade deadline last year. That's a half goal of game. That's a 40 goal pace. And his rookie year in the NHL, he's 39. At that point of his career, you can say, look he and Rick Tock it didn't get along and every other instance in his career in his career he's been a 40 goal ago now a lot of those things would say sign him but if you know what we know
Starting point is 00:52:47 now trade him in the summer yeah and that's hindsight 2020 I'm not saying Craig should have done it just like if you were going to pick his value it would have been like you might have got a second plus or you could trade him for a third line center I don't know but again I think the flames are happy with Morgan Frost you needed him to get Frost here I think we want to see more I don't think, but he's 24. I don't think Conray did poorly in that trade. I like the trade still. Those guys got to contribute more next year.
Starting point is 00:53:14 I still like it. And I don't think Kuzmanko's stock was going up by hanging on to him longer. No, I agree. And if we look at the big, big, big pitcher and zoom out even further, if you had traded Jacob Peltje and Elias Lindholm, look what they got back. It's Frost. It's Fairby. It's Gridden.
Starting point is 00:53:32 It's a third rounder. It's Bristevich. It's Yermot. Like it's it the trade tree is huge from that lint home deal. That's his best trade he's made. The marksham one's looking pretty close, but a lot of that has to do with Wolf. Either way, it's just fascinating because we knew he was a hot and cold player.
Starting point is 00:53:49 And then you just wondered, you know what? Maybe he's going to go be a hot and cold player in the KHL because it was awful in Calgary and Philly this year. Oh, and he gets to L.A. And you're like, holy shit, this guy's still doing it. Magic. Zipping it around.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Hands. Lightning fast. Front of the net. caring, smiling ear to ear. Love Sarmonicas too, Jack, I'm told. Big fan. All right. Yeah. Love Sarmonicas. King's up to O, heading back to Edmonton.
Starting point is 00:54:16 It is, I don't know that there's been in the last five years, a moment that probably feels this low for the Oilers. Like, there's more pain than this. Losing game seven to stand like a final. That's pain. But it's not a lot of, like, this is low. Maybe that's the wrong word to use. But the general attitude toward the Oilers and opinion on the Oilers is,
Starting point is 00:54:41 is kind of disdainful. They're like, you have two players and you've done F all to support them. You had one run where you almost want a cup and you should have two or three banners. Everyone else with two superstars does. Those guys again, in game one, proved how fucking good. Sorry. How good they are. And if you supported them at all and had a little bit of forward thinking.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Match some offer sheets. develop some kids. Don't trade firsts for prospects. Turn them into players that help now. And I'm still not convinced they can't come back because they have McDavid. They totally can't. They'll have last change and they got McDavid and Drysoe. They could combine for five points
Starting point is 00:55:17 on Friday night. What are they going to do for the anthem? And even if they do, I still don't believe that what management and what they've done up there is right. Of course not. Yeah. It's in spite of. You have been given so much
Starting point is 00:55:32 just through the bloody luck of a lot and the hockey god's smiling on you and Leon being available at three which is a hell of a pick there but it's not like they've managed their way to this spot like you look at Florida you're like LA Bill Zito team they're playing against yes has had to manage it and I think they're on the opinion last summer was you have to fire Blake he's an idiot turns PLD into Kemper great trade for both teams. Like, that's managing a team well. Yeah, the ins and outs
Starting point is 00:56:06 from July on in terms of like this player left, this player came in, it's a nightmare for the Oilers. McLeod Strong year, Fogel really good year, Broberg, huge year, Holloway, breakout star caliber season. They haven't even maximized the appeal of having McDavid and Dryside along their
Starting point is 00:56:23 team. Do you know what I mean as far as bringing in a quality individual and free agents? Who's come in well below market so that they could play with Connor. No one. No one. Not even his butter, but Connor Brown. They went and paid dustards good money to be support players. You're like, that is just a terrible move. That's terrible.
Starting point is 00:56:41 That's dumb. Why are you doing that? Who have they brought it and I didn't, I don't like the background of Kane, the attempt on bringing him in. I was okay with that. Resigning him was the problem. Exactly. And that's again, the management. Eckholm was a great trade. That's probably Ken Holland's best move. Hyman's a nice ad and free agency,
Starting point is 00:57:02 but they outbid everyone. It wasn't like it was sneaky. They just put more money on the table and good for the, it fits there. It's great. Yeah, you're fine with that. But there's a lot of swing and miss in there. And we got more time and they're not dead yet. They aren't. They haven't lost a home game. Sadly. It's, uh,
Starting point is 00:57:19 two wins is going to feel a long way away for the, for the Kings. Even again, as we said, if you're up to an empty net at the other end, it's still not over against Empton. They showed that in game one. uh when's jack buying his pizza never jack i got passed on to dean no it did not and dean's gone and there's no more i think it came back on you though for being a d right so today oh no it's beers they got beers on special today right rich men's it's kind of like oh yes oh no kind of like this is so good it's bad man food specials oh no i know tvs everywhere richmond's is your game
Starting point is 00:58:04 day place you know they got the sound on for the playoff games they're also serving up the delicious barn burner blonde from origin brewing all day game day special a little price uh yes place to be sports live at richmond's pub 39 19 richmond road in the article morgan what we like to do here pizza bets it's feel strongly about something like yeah i think shoulder sanders is going to be a star in the NFL. Ah, no way, he sucks, Jack. Let's put a pizza on it. And this is, this is the debt that Jack owes us.
Starting point is 00:58:34 He owes us a couple Richmond wheels. It's non-debatable too. It's phenomenal pizza. Like, let's go today. Today is a great day. Today's not a great day. Today's not a great day. It's a terrible day, actually.
Starting point is 00:58:45 I can't do it. Okay. Tomorrow. But if you say you went and bought pizzas and we didn't show up so we don't get any, it's our own damn fault. That'd be savvy. I won't be happy. Take yourself off the home.
Starting point is 00:58:55 that would be nice. Mondays, Monday, Bundy, love that. $10 burger and fries, Tuesdays, wings gone wild. God, they got so many good wing flavors. What's your move there, Jack? I know Dean loves a dill pickle. I'm always hot. Hot wings. Good, yeah. They're called Hot wings for a reason. Yep. When in doubt, just the original, the classic, where the burger named after the restaurant, like, just stick to what we know. Hot's hot. What are you guys good at? Maxi Mani on Wednesdays, $3 tacos. Today, it just says,
Starting point is 00:59:25 is. What's your special today? Beers. Love it. Thanks to Richmond's. We're going to get some wheels in soon. I got a lunch day, though, though, so I would.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Yeah. Yeah. It's not your fault. No, my fault. Jack, we're going to keep that tab running, though. We're not going to charge you interest. That's our deal. Maybe Monday.
Starting point is 00:59:45 Yeah, like Monday. Burger fries. Or election day? Yeah, we could go vote and go for it. Where's your voting station? Is it nearby there? Have you voted already or not? I'm done.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Are these polls know anything or not? I see different polls. They're totally waiting. Do politicians know anything? Oh, we know the answer to that. God. Please. That's my time about that kind of question.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Okay. Let's get to the Pender Report. Again, Richmond Road, 3919. Richmond's probably probably know that. The heart of Glamorgan, right by the best cheese buns in the city. GTS. Google that. Google that s.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Pender Report time. We do that for Village Honda. Yes. The Northwest Autoball. Your dealership. life and pretty sexy new 2025s up there right now. Anthony getting a little braggy at the playoff pool. Yeah, we won year one.
Starting point is 01:00:38 We got all kinds of in-stock inventory. Huh? Pre-owned brand new. We got it all, Viltana. It's true. What can we tell you? If you haven't been there in a while, nice little bump in new in-stock inventory on the ground,
Starting point is 01:00:55 That's great to hear. New vehicle bracing, MSRP. And of course, if you're looking to get rid of a vehicle or you turn it back in for a lease, don't do anything before you swing by a village hon and get them to take a look at it. They want to buy your pre-owned vehicle. All makes, all models. Appraisals are complimentary. If you get a deal done, you're paid in 24 hours.
Starting point is 01:01:13 That's a win. And also for a limited time, get a cruise voucher for two, just for selling them your car. They're already giving you cash now to throwing in a cruise voucher on top of it. Love it. Also, no obligation for more details. Let's get started at village honda.com. Okay, we start with some of the action. Last night, Jack, we begin in Washington again.
Starting point is 01:01:35 We went through the highlights. I think we have a nice coincidence. I remember Braden Holpsey of the capitals. Sasker. Sasker. Cup winner, I believe. He backstopped them. I am told one of these people is Logan Thompson,
Starting point is 01:01:52 and the other is Braden Holpey. are you bleeping kidney what Holpe is gone into witness protection changed his name and returned is Logan Thompson Brett which one is Holpey and which one is Thompson I'm going left
Starting point is 01:02:08 holtby when I'm looking at you killed the man side Holpby yeah I have no idea it's the same guy what's that meme from the office it's like we'd like to you to point out the differences
Starting point is 01:02:23 between these two photos, it's the same photo. It's the same guy. Please point out that, no, no, that's the same, it's the exact same photo. Wow. That's good karma for these caps. I like that very much. Next to the Dallas Colorado game, Gabe Landisgog remains a remarkable human. Really cool.
Starting point is 01:02:42 We talked about the warm up, the family. Just a little bit of time there. Landisg, the third NHL captain to return after missing a thousand games. Wow, thousand games. Who else would have done that? Sid Abel and Sill Apps who missed time while fighting in World War II. Okay. Cool little stat there.
Starting point is 01:03:02 Holy. Those are completely different worlds. Yes. Sid Abel, Sid App, heroes. God bless you. Indeed they are.
Starting point is 01:03:11 Yeah. Can you imagine someone? No. Yeah. I'm sorry, Gabe. What you've gone through has been tough and long and... It's good company, Gabe.
Starting point is 01:03:19 That's what we're telling you. Yeah. You're in really, really good company here. The other final bit, Coosie, we just talked about. Watch him with the harmonicas. They brought up back. He can't believe this is happening. He's like, didn't they just do this two days ago?
Starting point is 01:03:43 And I had to try not to laugh at the end. Old Korean ladies in L.A. Who! Getting frisky. Loving life. King's jerseys on that time. They apparently drive a hard bargain. Wanted to bring them back for game two.
Starting point is 01:03:56 Said, yeah, yeah. Rate changed. But we paid you that for game one. that was game one. You need us now. Our Monica's got you to win. They're there. You want us back?
Starting point is 01:04:05 They could be there for the next two months. I hope they are. That would be great. They're like, we all need jerseys. We'll give you our sizing. Our rate went up. And we need a little one-on-one time with Onze. The ladies want a signing session with Anzay.
Starting point is 01:04:20 We're not taking no for an answer. It can be in the summer. We need Anzai time. Did they do it every home game until they lose? I think they have to. Well, and I think once you get to a certain point, you might have to just do it anyway. You might build on this thing.
Starting point is 01:04:32 You might be bringing in like, Grammy artists to play harmonica with them. Like pack the ice. Get Will Ferrell singing with the harmonica. Yes. Give him a harmonica. You can be leading the truth. He should join the harmonica crew.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Oh, my God. That would be so good. It's L.A. What can't we do here? Oh, that would be gold. Just gold. And then Snoop and add a celebrity every game. And just drop them in and don't say a word. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Just is that, who's that old bird? Jeez, that looks like, Wilfrey. That is Wilfarrell! And then the next game like, is that Snoop Dog? Oh, my God, he's a Korean old lady. This is amazing. There's a serious question. L.A. gets through.
Starting point is 01:05:17 If they get through Edmonton. They will play the winner of Vegas, Minnesota. Understood. Okay. Are they better suited to win those games? Do you know what I mean? Like, I'm worried about them. beating Edmonton because dry
Starting point is 01:05:32 sidle and McDavid might go and win the series. But they might be better like Minnie's good and Vegas is good, whatever. They may be better suited to beat those teams. I think this is, if they can get through this, and they're up too old, but again, it's two of the best players in the world. If they get through the series, I think they're even money or favorites in round two.
Starting point is 01:05:55 I don't care who they're playing. Because it's like, what can't they do you've got kemper on this incredible run where he doesn't allow more than two game one obvious exception you've got a deep blue line they've dressed 7d last night in that mover are they didn't put him on the ice one shift he's not bad he's a decent player meanwhile the other side they had josh brown they couldn't put on for more than five minutes at the other end in game one um and i love their scoring depth like it's just they've got three lines that can score they win face-offs their centermen are all good if you look down the middle and you say okay we can
Starting point is 01:06:29 have copatard to know take every D's own face face off the whole game and when we're in the ozone there's Quentin Byfield like down the middle blue line and net yeah and the power place humming too yeah I love this team sorry for interrupt you know I interrupted at all it's great too but yeah I think to be favored against Vegas at this point if Vegas gets through in Minnesota absolutely their favorite uh well wait and see what happens they're not through yet either uh the full slate of results we talked about a bunch let's uh throw up the board interesting, there are only two series where both teams have got to win so far. One of them was last night's game three between Dallas and Colorado.
Starting point is 01:07:10 What? There's only two series. There's eight series ongoing and not all of them have played the same number of games. You only played once with Tampa, Florida. But of the seven series where they played two or more games, only two of them, both teams have a win. A lot of two O leads. Get my point or two one for down. I think what's the other series?
Starting point is 01:07:32 Carolina, Jersey, no. Minnesota. It's Minnesota Vegas. Yeah. Everyone else is up something, oh, in the series. Oh. I don't know if I've eloquently said that or I've, we're all dumber for having heard we speak.
Starting point is 01:07:46 Next. Next. Next. Tonight, let's take a look. You sound like a politician. I do. Word salad right there. Total word salad.
Starting point is 01:07:54 Can we count on your vote on the 28th? Here's the whole thing. This will probably. paint my picture better. Yes, that's what you needed. A lot of teams looking in good shape. The only series I'm not sure about in terms of who, who's in charge? Dallas, Colorado, game four will be in Colorado and Vegas, Minnesota. That scene switches to St. Paul tonight. From the city that never sleeps to the, might as well sleep while you're in the city. City while you sleep in, take an ab and tuck yourself in early.
Starting point is 01:08:23 Sleeping that always sleeps. Oh, sleepy St. Paul. St. Paul. Okay. Maybe even. Maybe even. venture out of your room and check out the lobby. St. Paul. Okay. Start in chronological order. I'm not telling you what that means. Florida, Tampa, game two.
Starting point is 01:08:38 This is a big one for the Bulls. They looked like a team that was not close in game one. They need to be better tonight. Mathi Kachuk, Nate Schmidt, each scored a pair in game one. Vasilevsky's got to be better as well. No question. Six is not an ideal. No.
Starting point is 01:08:53 Ask Stuart Skinner. A lot of winning happens when you let in six. It's tough. Real tough. Toronto, Ottawa. It'll be game two, the first game in Ottawa. And we got some news we told you about it'll be Max Patcher Ready, stepping in on a line with Max Domi and Bobby McMahon. Okay, a little tweak from Craig Barube up to Rip.
Starting point is 01:09:19 Sends will have last change, obviously. And it's the first time they've had last change in 200,000, 893 days in the playoffs. That's a while. That's a long time. That is a long time. I think I know exactly where I was the last time the senators played a playoff game. I was in Tokyo on my stag with a dozen idiots. We were streaming it on some guy's phone, who I hope had a data plan.
Starting point is 01:09:42 It was penguins, senators, game six or seven, win and you're into the final. Carlson had gone off that year. Don't know that they've been at home since. They've vending machines of beer. Yeah, I know. You told me that before I, because you were there when you were. kid like 15 14 16 the machine didn't idea
Starting point is 01:10:03 no you were able to purchase at will what how much is this one it's that's a red bill what's this worth oh my gosh look at all these beers coming out night game uh this is actually the third of four we got a good four game slate tonight Minnesota stole some momentum
Starting point is 01:10:22 in game two they're all square they're coming home best of five three of them in Minnesota potentially Caprizov is a bloody star. He might be the best player in this series. He's not saying something because Eichol and Stone and other guys at the other end. We'll see what the crowd's like.
Starting point is 01:10:37 Minnesota has been missing a lot of their best players for a lot of the season. Safe to say, if they can look like they're in game two, that place will be jumping. Nightcap is Winnipeg, St. Louis. Blues have actually been pretty good for a team that's down 2-0. They'll be at home. This has been maybe one of the most physical series
Starting point is 01:10:58 out there. Very physical, yeah. And I wonder if this isn't the night that the blues get one on the Jets. I don't know that they come back and make this a long series, but if you're going to win one, maybe it's tonight at home, ding, ding, ding, ding, with a stupid bell they hit after the goals. If the Jets want to make a statement, they could do it right now. The Jets want to really increase their odds of winning a championship. Make this a very short series and kick your feet up while you watch Dallas and Colorado bash each other over the head with iron pipes. I don't know who to think might win.
Starting point is 01:11:33 It's in the second round. They're up. No, right now. Tonight. Yeah, the jets are up to nothing. It feels coin tossy to me. It's fair. Both games have been tied in the final five minutes of the third.
Starting point is 01:11:45 Winnipeg's had made the one play. Doesn't mean they're going to make that play tonight. Maybe it's St. Louis. But yeah, Winnipeg's a good team. I like them in the series tonight. I kind of feel like the blues aren't bad. You'll love this. Speaking of politicians being idiots.
Starting point is 01:12:04 No more Go Habs Go on the Montreal City buses. Because of course the language police, which I had to explain to Jack are an actual thing, not a made up thing in Quebec, have said, well, go is English. Oh, that sounds good. Even though Habs is short for Habiton, which is not an English word.
Starting point is 01:12:24 Alley, Kenneger, L.A., not quite the same ring. And so what happens if you do say it? Well, then the language police will come and wag their language fingers at you. Okay, but what? Write you a language ticket. You can get a ticket? Oh, probably.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Well, let's go visit Montreal. I got a buddy red eye tonight. Breakfast laid out. You've made me annoying. I know it's annoying, but that building's going to be jump at the morrow, Rhett. You got to put up with some bullshit. Go Habs go. Shut the lights out on there.
Starting point is 01:12:54 Well, you can say it. You just can't have a sign. And if you do have a sign, the French has to be twice the font size. What if you're in the rink and you have the sign? You can wear a T-shirt. It's more about businesses than people. It's incredibly annoying.
Starting point is 01:13:05 They don't have the language. Back to the politicians or idiots talk. Yeah. Good God. It's a three-hour show today, and we're just scratching the service. So here's the full slate laid out for you. Tonight's games.
Starting point is 01:13:19 We love to see it. I don't know if we have a full slate. We don't have a full slate. We went, we've got a full slate. We've got a full slate. We've got a full slate. We've got enough. We got them all.
Starting point is 01:13:25 We got them all. So again, 4.30 start. Note the early start time in Tampa. Five to Ottawa, staggered by half an hour like that. Then we got Minnesota 7 p.m. St. Louis at 7.30. Four games. See where we're at tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:13:40 You're going to do a show tomorrow? I'd prefer not to, but probably, yeah. Are you going to be hungover? I got to do an event tonight with the regier and staging and cabby. You will be hung over. Cabby's coming. Where are you going, Red? La Palaz.
Starting point is 01:13:57 I don't know what. I don't know. Details. I've spent off air conversation. I think it's a private. I don't know. Secret party. Thanks to the invite, Red.
Starting point is 01:14:05 You're welcome. Cogger hitmen are done. I'm sorry. Ah, settle down, Lethbridge. The playoff train was just starting to roll. We're down too O in the series. I was feeling really good. Stanking hurricanes.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Windy-ass city. Your cheap booze and your college students that I was once upon a time one of. Ah, Lethbridge. My kid was there, said the hitman had a, was it a five minute power play in the third? No. Couldn't score.
Starting point is 01:14:38 They were zipping it around. Golly was good. Hitman were blocking shots. Happens quick, man. They would have been preparing for medicine, Manhattan instead. Oh, season's over. Just like that.
Starting point is 01:14:50 Did we show the goodbye to the 20s? Always nice to honor your 20-year-olds and junior. because they age out. Connor Vidson, Daniel Houser, Annette, Caleb Parker. They go. I guess it would have been different for you
Starting point is 01:15:06 because you, I was the NHL, but aging out's an emotional thing, apparently, I imagine. Jack, did you age out a junior? No.
Starting point is 01:15:14 No, I quit. Okay. It sets up a pretty titanic battle between two cities that are close in proximity and probably have a little hate toward each other. I wish it was medicine.
Starting point is 01:15:24 that Calgary but Lethbridge Medicine Hat, that'll get rowdy. Two smaller centers. Two good ranks. Well, supported. Yes. You might even see some fisticuffs between some fainting in the stands, right? It always encourages that. Remember, you want high ground? Don't say go-habs go?
Starting point is 01:15:41 Cains. It's okay. And you want high ground when you're fighting in the stands, right? Oh, four, shizzle. Get the high seats you can. Then your total controls. Go downhill. Downhill. Okay. The other final, by the way, Spokane, Portland, that's the Western Conference.
Starting point is 01:15:57 NFL draft day. Here's your order. Sounds like what, Jack. We got absolute locks at the first couple of picks here. Titans will pick one. They take the quarterback. Yeah, they'll take Cam Ward. Cam Ward. Browns are going to do.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Bad pick. Hunter? Yeah, okay. Maybe the guy that plays two ways. And then things get interesting to the Giants. Are they going to go quarterback? Are they not? Patriots. They want to trade back.
Starting point is 01:16:23 Get more assets. Doesn't sound the top ends amazing this year. You might get a similar caliber player in the top five as you get in the 20s. But again, that's just one scout saying something on Twitter. I only see one team up there, Ryan. What do you see? Where do they pick?
Starting point is 01:16:35 Number 30. Number 30, the Buffalo Bills. What do they need? Just champions? A champion. Just bringing champions. Chargers pick one after and look at this happening. A 21, almost every mock draft right now has Shadur Sanders going to this team.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Let's go. He's really. Talked himself into this. There was a point where he was supposed to go like one. Yeah. And where's he at now? What's that? Tell you.
Starting point is 01:17:02 He's played really well to get down to 20. Oh, yeah. Well, this guy that's really good. People watched him a lot. Yeah. Now we're going to pay attention to this guy. And we don't like him as much. So we don't rate him as highly.
Starting point is 01:17:13 But yeah, you go ahead. There is a 365. You can do some betting on the NFL draft, which is tonight. Team to draft Shudor Sanders. Pittsburgh, minus. one 10 what a roller coaster i thought i was going to have rogers a month ago and you don't want rogers either he's done he doesn't know what he wants he's he's absolutely twisting the wind the towel on getting a quarterback for this year that's going to be a difference maker build your team the other
Starting point is 01:17:42 way and next year if you can go find a quarterback go ahead that's what they said last year though yeah we're never bad enough though yeah if you draft shader you might be be bad enough, but then you've already drafted the quarter. That's going to be a tough one. Yeah, exactly. So let's draft. Replexing stuff. Anyway, good luck with Dion's kid. I'm sure he's very humble. Down to Earth.
Starting point is 01:18:08 Centred. Dion's humble. Let's jump to some dumb stuff. Let's get to, uh, got some good stuff out of Australia lately. With some kids in the backyard. We kids are dumb. Australian kids probably extra dumb, right? I don't know. Yours are. My kids are half Aussie.
Starting point is 01:18:23 Boy, some of the things they do, but this is really good. So we got, they're hanging out in the backyard. There's a barbecue. Someone's working on the old car there. And I think they're setting stuff on fire in the barbecue. They're testing different things. Let's have a listen. What the fuck is at this time?
Starting point is 01:18:38 Acetylene oxygen. Why is everybody's settling oxygen? Gone. Gone. I felt that in my fucking asshole. Holy shit. Bro, satellite oxygen. that Aussie accent, I'm mistaken.
Starting point is 01:19:06 What the fuck is at this time? Acetylene oxygen. Fuck is it this time. Acetylene oxygen. I don't know how this shows become part Aussie, but it really has. It has. We need Ozzy Brad DeWay, and it's been a while since.
Starting point is 01:19:19 It's good, though. Aussie influence is wonderful. He's singing John Deere Green last time we checked in. You and the shoveler, this is out in your chalet in the mountains, your mountaineer, and this tree is in the way. We need this tree to come down. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:31 You got Trevor the DUG there. That's your old man, your brother. As long as they pull that way while you're signed, the tree's going to land right on the... Oh! Who didn't let go? It's true? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:51 Veteran Doug realized it. This tree weighs probably a few thousand pounds. We'll just get two guys leaning this way. That'll help, right? Who's cutting the tree? That was you, you idiot. And finally, there's this workout place down the street. They're actually, they've said something.
Starting point is 01:20:12 You need to stop staying at the window. Sir, sir, we're getting blinds installed. You go ahead and install your blinds. I'll be here till then. It's a free world, lady. That's your PIN report on a 13th. is the Pilates. Ah, well, yeah, you're going to look at the technique.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Great technique. Wow. You know, you're an appreciator of athletes. I'm interested in signing up. That's right. Look for a membership. What's the, I just want to take my time here. I got a 10 punch pass.

Starting point is 01:21:55 I have no idea what the is. He said one other name. I'm trying to remember who it was. Stage. Stage moved out of the city, hasn't he? So he's got a nice big old estate now or something, man. When you're overpaid for two decades.
Starting point is 01:22:07 Oh, boy. A good agent, unlike you. That's my uncle, I think. Is that a true story? Yes. Yeah, my uncle was the big wheel for an agent in Saskatchewan for a while. He was just opening door. Probably a window there where he was, most kids out of sask.
Starting point is 01:22:25 He got him. Poor bastard. He's a good dude. Loves his golf. Sure does, Ryan. And hip surgeries, it turns out, but I don't think he likes those as much. Okay. We'll get some other things to do.
Starting point is 01:22:40 We need you to win a million bucks. That's probably a good thing to do. Yeah, before the weekend. This thing's ending. April 30, you've been telling you for two months. April 30, end of the contest. It's the service big share contest. Get going here, people, a million bucks.

Anyone can enter, just become a member at service. Start saving. Every 500 bucks you save gives you five entries into Big Share contest.

So if I wait a couple more, don't be a procrastinator. I explain this to my kids. I say, hey, when you get home, I want you to put your backpack away and empty your lunchbox. I said, yeah, dad, but I'm just taking my time. And I'm like, right. But when you were taking your time with your baseball backpack, it was still out three days later. Let's just get it done. And then it's off the list. If you know, you got to do it. sign up for the big share then we can go to the park empty your backpack then we can do video games
Starting point is 01:24:16 get it done what a motivational speak yeah thank you appreciate that uh okay rose hill today how was rosy rosy's always good it's weird his spring hockey team sounds like every spring hockey team doesn't it i i don't think he ever said where he was i kind of know where he is the fact that they're that far away is even crazy yeah it's you get the real We never got caught up in spring hockey, ever. You never went to one tournament last year in Philadelphia? Well, you're living in Buffalo. Yeah, that's exactly.
Starting point is 01:24:50 It's not six, seven. It's not. If you went to Philadelphia with a Calgary spring team, you should be dragged away from children's sport and put in their jail. Oh, they were teams from. Oh, boy. Last year. Big tournament.
Starting point is 01:25:04 Big tournament. If they make any money. Yeah, they do. Yeah, they charge a lot of money. Yeah. And these kids need shoes and hats and hoodies. Oh, yeah. Thundergoles are going to be rolling this with your gloves, pants shells, hair dye, everything. Why not? New helmets because you've got to have the helmet to match the.
Starting point is 01:25:28 We actually encourage you to go to this dealership, go to Village Honda. We've got the team colors for a vehicle. We need to drive that to the game. Yeah. So really reasonable asks, right? Um, this is the time of year. Love's in the air. It's spring.
Starting point is 01:25:40 You walk around. People have a little twinkle in their eyes. That's what I woke up. That's what I woke up for this morning. Yeah, I felt great today. The dreams I've been having after these kings wins, you would not play. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:25:52 Anzi and I are great pals. High five. And we're real popular in L.A. Gosh. I don't know if I'm a winger or a GM. Onze and there. We're pals now. Just great.
Starting point is 01:26:04 Honestly, just too bad for these oils. It's shame, isn't it? Yeah, it's hurtful. But there's love in the air this time of year. And that, I don't know that we'd recommend, let's say, proposing.
Starting point is 01:26:16 But if you've already made up your money, you are going to propose, we do have to tell you to go to Vinova because you're going to save a ton of money and come out with a diamond that might even be better than what you were going to buy dug out of the ground at a fraction of the price. You can be an idiot for proposing. Right. Don't be an idiot. Yeah, you can be dumb love.
Starting point is 01:26:35 We'll allow that. But we can't allow you to be a dumb consumer here. Vina Nova is Calgary's only. Lab grown specialists. 100% of the store, it's all they do. You're exclusively lab grown diamonds. Why does that matter? Well, because lab grown diamonds can be as much as 80% off the price of regular ass dirty mine diamonds.
Starting point is 01:26:54 That's a good deal. Vena Nova.com is the website. The showroom is moved from downtown, the old location up to market mall. You'd love to see that. And the lab grown diamond, it's not a fake diamond. It is literally the same chemical composition. Do you know the chemical composition of a diamond, Jack? It's very simple.
Starting point is 01:27:13 It is compressed carbon. It's just C. Carbon. The periodic table of elements. Yeah, I didn't get to that in high school. Carbon. Carbon. Carbon. Carbon. Carbon.
Starting point is 01:27:23 Carbon. It's still carbon. They're just doing it a lab. Not digging it out of the dinosaur skeleton. It's a carbon, Jack. Let's go. Carbon. Very sparkly.
Starting point is 01:27:34 That Sanders will have lots of... Lab grown of the same. hardness, light refraction is a natural diamond, and it's the largest selection of loose lab grown diamonds and jewelry in Calgary. Vena Nova up at Market Mall. I love to see that. And yeah, look, dumb love?
Starting point is 01:27:49 Sure. We're not going to let you be a dumb consumer. Save some money. Throw a little more into that DJ at the wedding. The live band. Bring in the Korean ladies with the harmonicus. Blowing it out. Big party. Best ever. Keep going, ladies. Get a hip cover band and the Korean
Starting point is 01:28:05 unbelievable. Seniors. Sarmatica Group. Let's go. Let's look at our bets for games tonight. We do our bets for our great pals at Bet365. You want to get in on the action for the Stanley Cup playoffs. Had Bet 365. They got you. Game props, player props, totals, money line.
Starting point is 01:28:24 We can even bet on futures like series winners, conference champions. Who's going to win the Cup? Stanley Cup champions. Bet on all that and much, much more. I found you can bet on politics even. Nice. Yeah. I mean, interesting.
Starting point is 01:28:36 That's all. very interesting. They're smarter than the politicians, which is just... I'm ignoring the polls. I'm actually looking at these odds makers. I feel like they got a real. They would absolutely. Whatever your bet is, it's never ordinary.
Starting point is 01:28:47 It's Bet 365. Download the app. Get in the game. An official partner, the Stanley Cup playoffs must be 19 or older. There's the slate tonight. What do you need to know? Sends favorite at home despite being down 2.0. Lightning favored at home despite being down 1.0.
Starting point is 01:29:03 Wild. Dogs at home after beating Vaggart. guess in game two. And the blues favored on the road, or excuse me, even money at home. Jets favored on the road. I like the wild there. I also do.
Starting point is 01:29:19 Have I said you my bets jacket or did I just literally not send them to you? You didn't send them. So I've got the Toronto money line. I just think, look, Ottawa's going to have a great run. It might not be this year. Not ready. Goaltender looks hot. And maybe it's a series, but the Leafs just have a poise.
Starting point is 01:29:37 about them. Maybe this is Fool's goal. It's two games, small sample. I like how they looked. I'm taking them at plus 110. Numbers too good to pass up. I also am with Rett. I'm taking the Minnesota Money Line against Vegas plus 130 for the team that was better in game two. Now they
Starting point is 01:29:54 head home to a charged up building. I don't know if they win this series, but I like them tonight in game three, wild and the Leafs. You can parlay those if you wanted, but it's plus 110 for Toronto, plus 130 for many. Those are back. That's for bet 365. Use a promo code nation.
Starting point is 01:30:11 I'm going to need a lot of TVs tonight. Yeah, it's stagered enough. It's a draft on 435, 7, 7.30. NFL draft, the beauty of that is, is they take their sweet-ass time. They do. Oh, my goodness. Like, round one will be, what,
Starting point is 01:30:26 three and a half hours? Minimum. Yeah, it's a whole thing. So set a timer for five minutes, check in. Give yourself the minute leading into the pick, switch back. And then obviously when it gets close to Steelers time,
Starting point is 01:30:37 that's your feature TV. I can't miss a second. What if there's a big trade, like they might have to move up. This is where the smart TV's coming, because you get the multiple screens. You can also pull up social media. You got a frickin' phone in your hand.
Starting point is 01:30:49 That works just fine. I was doing this one the other night. It was too much going on. And politicians. Standing up, but they got like a power play with a minute left here. This one's in overtime. It's a lot.
Starting point is 01:31:07 So whatever it is, never ordinary at Bet 365. Set an AI alarm. It'll keep you. updated a lot of trustings oh yeah yeah built me an alarm or anything anything anything stolen related please send me immediately that's a great idea rat i don't know that it's a thing but you could invent it maybe sell you a guy it's it's 100% of thing easy peasy so jack could monetize it yep it's the jack oometer
