10 dollars solid game for canada overall not confident in bittington he was leaky all night except for overtime but it should never have gotten overtime in the first place would you go with Hill versus the US of A. You got a coin? I don't have a coin. We've talked about this a lot lately. I don't know why anybody would have coins. It is a short tournament. Like, you absolutely could go to Hill. It's just

if he doesn't play well, now what? You got two guys you don't want to play? Like, you know what? The real question is? Is that a hill you're prepared to die on? Oh, ha. Oh my God. Come on today, boys. Here's the other question I have.

So you don't trust Binnington, but now you're not even trusting the other guy that's supposed to be just as good? Like your fear is that your goaltenders are shit. Well, it's been the fear someone's been talking about for five years. But the... Is that you, Ryan? Cooper said... Are you the one that's been talking about this for five years? Well, someone's been hit me over the head like I'm an idiot about it.

And now all of a sudden, everyone's talking about it. So I feel vindicated. Ryan Wright, vindicated. Boom. Now look, there's one goal he'd love that back, right? not good two maybe two but the other one's kind of crossbar in and the deep pairs of an absolute disaster in front of them um one for sure but then he's awesome in overtime you're okay but i i thought i was going to start game one like that was the guy i thought they'd go with but cooper said

we're not going to be rotating guys like we want to ride a guy and he won it was great in overtime so they're going to keep riding i don't think cooper will change yeah and i don't know if the super chat doesn't what we're saying or what we're predicting to do but team can't it's not going to change goalie right i don't think so especially after he said it yeah and who said something on the show after well maybe that was just uh not just for bennington's mindset to settle well what's that if he throws hill in all the goaltenders are oh well it's more the opponent on saturday like that's gonna be the highest octane offense Canadian goalie face right and i think they're all americans i've heard that actually although jake sanderson played for spring bank here i'm a little concerned

about his paperwork. Great Calgary minor hockey products. Buffalo. I was going to say that. Whitefish. Nealander kid. He was playing for Sweden last night. Another.

Just traders all over. Born to Calgary. Prick. Anyway. I think Bennington to answer the superchard. That's my vote. Yeah. I'd like them in over time.

I would have loved to see he'll start game one, but whoever Cooper picked is going to be the guy until he really falls in his face. It's probably too late at that point. Yeah. Short tournament. Is it? Four games max. Huh.

You don't say. Yeah. Because there's only four nations facing off. Yeah. Yeah. I saw about a thousand memes yesterday that you would have hated every single one of them. So we're going to see them. So they were all not funny.

So we're going to see them later today. So stay tuned. I was like, Jack, do we could do 26 that. No, none of them. Lumer would hate it, but that's the only payoff. I don't dislike memes. There's a lot of memes that I think are very funny. See, here's the thing.

your gift game, right? You know, and you would, I've always said, very strong. One of the best in the game. My meme game, not as strong. It's not as strong. No. No. You're jumping on them too early, I think. Like the baking thing? It came across your plate and he threw it in there.

Yeah, it was. I've seen some weird ones. Anyway. Opening statements from a Cloud Law. Oh, here we go. Yeah. I need a lawyer. Do you? I got a guy for you. Got a couple guys. and gals.

I was lying in bed thinking about who I could sue. Does what you do? Lying in bed, just like Brian and Rose in the bed. Oh, damn it. McLeod-Dashlaw.com. That's who you need. Wow.

It's who you need. Whether it's per serious, got some serious legal issues, or no, in order to make this purchase, I need a lawyer to sign off on the paperwork. Or maybe just some nighttime fun. suing like Brett wants to do. Yeah. That's

Matt Sue. I'm going to get that. I'm going to get that son of bitch. Bastard done me wrong. Yeah. Canada wins four three. Who, that's a game. Over the Swedish Olympic national team. Ice hockey federation.

Trade Croner's. In hovertime, before we get too deep into it, there's a couple things. Now, again, this is not particularly funny, but just observations made on the old internet about the, the, uh, the four nations face off. Yeah.

Um, so I throw a couple things in there. Um, it's in Montreal. So everything's French, eh? Hey. Viva France. Yeah, Viva France. Vive la Quebec Libra. And for a good chunk of the game felt like this big, big, big, big,

big, big Canada win. And then for a while, it's like, ooh, are they going to hang on now? Shit, shit, shit the bend here. What's going to happen? Oh, now. Which then gives you, uh, what's going to happen here with this, with this tournament? Because we've talked a lot about, oh, oh, do you care about it, whatever.

I'm not sure if we care and this sort of thing. And this one was sent my way last night. Well, it depends, I suppose. Right. Did Canada win it? Yes. Hockey is Canada's best. It's our sport.

We live and breathe it. Ra, rah, rah. Oh, did we lose? The stupid tournament. Dumb thing. Made up bullshit. I would just drive. Yeah.

I do actually think the game that we did see would help. Because if they won 6-1, you'd be like, it may as well just be. Rider Cup Canada USA. I think it took forever to Sweden to get any chances in the first. It felt like we had to blow it on our hands for a while. But that not happening, I think, helped because

we had incredibly entertaining that final third and overtime. That goal tending made it a hockey game. It's true. If Connor Hellbuck is in that, this might not have been close at all. This might not have been a very good game at all. We'd be very much even Logan Thompson. Who knows? Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's true.

You pick this team. Um, but we had boots on the ground or what did they call it with the something on the whatever. How do you say that in French Jack? Boots on the ground. What was our daily face off? Zapato's Donla.

Oh, we had someone there? Shit yeah. Because we're Four nations. We're big time off. Yeah. At Four nations. Our buddy Sterling from Origin Brewing. No. He was there. I got a buddy taking his

kid on Saturday. Gosh, dang it. Awful seats too, which you would expect for a guy like Starr or not. That's pretty flipping good. It's the Confrontation de four nations. Wow. Sounds more hostile, isn't it? It does. Violent. Confrontation.

So, yeah, he was there. How do you say four in French? Cat. Cat nations. Yeah. Yeah. Troistersion de Catnation. I did reach out. So how was the match? Have not heard back. I wonder if the Le Brewery was.

was lebusy la belleville swallowed him that's right yeah there's uh if you don't hear back from someone in Montreal just give him a day yeah they're recovering but yeah i mean this is what this tournament needed yes they needed eyeballs some drama and to your point it was two nothing before the swedes got a shot on goal it's this is going to be a runaway but there are still cool things you're right the game in general but there let me even let's let's beaum coming out Mario. Crosby with that pass. Yeah.

Get the, out of here. How many seconds into the power play? You're like, yeah, okay, this could be fun. That was wicked.

Oh my God, McKinnon down the wall. The booing of Matthews was also great. That's the thing about Montreal. It's perfect. They, they take it really seriously. I wish he'd have hammed it up a little more.

It's done like a, yeah, do like a, thank you very much. Appreciate it. Yeah, just really lean into the, And no enrol.

But then, yeah, the Swedes got going, and I would guess it's probably natural a little bit. First, like you say, short tournament, first game together as a group. Not everything's going to be cohesive and smooth and all of that. But then the Swedes kind of got it going. Well, we knew what we were going. And kind of snug.

We had a game plan. Snugged right up. And of course, everybody's main takeaway above all else was, could we get 10 minutes of overtime in the NHL? Which immediately post-game Nathan McKinnon said, I have no interest in doing this. I'm gassed, but also Nathan McKinnom is going one on three every overtime. That's right.

He was flying. Nate, here's an idea. If you give it to the other superstars, you don't have to try to go one on three for a whole shift. Yeah, he was, I mean, he was done. I don't know. We've talked about it. You've kind of, in terms of going to 10. Injuries, concern about, no, we're not going to 10.

Is it an actual conversation? 100% of it's going to 10. They're not, NHL's not going to 10 minutes. It's too long for, no. And how exciting is three on, it's a little different when he got Crosby, then Marner, then McDavid, and then McCar, like, when you put

out Lomberg, sorry, not as cool. And now Backland Coleman and Anderson, not the same. No, it's five minutes. It's not changed. Lomberg's on a beach somewhere. They've taken strays. They've coached the boring in the end of three. There's still some that are great. Yeah. But when it started, it's only great

when there's a mistake made and they they get the ability to start trading. chances. Once you get an odd man rush, it's just a track meet until someone's course. Until that happens. Before that, it's just possession. They need an over and back row before they have time. It's not changing. That's not, I don't even stop it. Oh, he's upset. Wow. That, out of that game, that's what we're going to do. That's our takeaway. That's our takeaways. How many more? The Canadian fans decided that we need a 10 minute three on three. Let's just play three on three then on short ice. What's interesting is it is the NHL and the PA that comes

together makes the rules. No way. Who does? Well, I know they do. I'm just, I think they put it at 10 for a reason. I think they're curious to how it looks. I don't think that means to your point that they're going to go to 10

in the NHL. I think Gary's very conscious of how long a game is. You don't want three hour games. You don't want the, you know, majoring baseball's going way out of their way to change rules to tighten things up because they understand people's attention spans. But by the time, sorry, by the time you do a shootout in terms of real time,

are you saving time? No, the challenge is if you play 10 minutes of 3 and you still have to do a shootout. That's the issue. I would be curious to know. They usually go to the show. Yeah, they usually in the HL kind of guinea pig this stuff. If they were to put it in, how many games would end in the five,

in the second five minute frame. I'm just, I have a feeling and I could be completely wrong. I think this is going to be something you're going to hear about people talk. I agree. 10 minutes. It was already. Players were asked about it. I think McKinn is the only guy who said he said he's,

And here's another take then. If that's what they said. Dumbass reporters are asking after a game like that, shame on you. They're not, dude. Shame on you. Of the things that came up. The reason you'd bring it up is because the winner came outside of the five minute three out three.

And if they played NHL rules, it would have gone to a shootout, which would have been disappointing in my mind. Right. Are you giving me a, what are you talking? It's a normal talking point. It's not a stupid question.

That's your take. It's not the biggest takeaway. So you, after that game as a reporting, a walking hitter. Hey, you guys want to play 10-minute overtimes in the NHL? Wouldn't that be great? No, you'd probably talk about the game for four or five minutes and then say, hey, that was a longer overtime.

That winner came after overtime would have expired. Then you're a hockey nerd that needs to chill the F out. I don't think you understand the media's job. I do understand. There's enough to talk about it. Don't ask about it? No. Okay.

Till Gary says, hey, because you know who doesn't need to decide? Some dork sitting in the stands. So why? from the top road. They're asking McKinnon his thoughts on it. If they don't ask McKinnon, they're coming up with

the idea. They're asking the questions. So you don't think that had any part of the game last night. That's how it ended. To your point, is it because they have the best players of the world? You're probably right. Well, not probably right. I am right. That's why it was good. But it was

fucking amazing to watch. So, Jack, if you're not bored over there, go pull up the last three on three overtime game the n-h out you don't need to do you don't need to be an asshole about it i'm just saying this like i'm not saying you're wrong i'm just saying people are talking about it's not fucking crazy you don't have to love it the more of that instead of a shoot out that instead of the game is you're making it sound like that's the only thing they're talking about not talking about instead of the game they're talking about the game they talked about crosbie

crosbie they talked about all that shit but overtime was pretty okay we've beat it to death it's right let's talk about it how do you deep do we want to go in it? I brought it up as I should I should have waited to bring it up. I'm sorry. I should have things item like itemized in terms of importance. How is Sid, Rhett? Sid was real good. I brought it up already. Jesus. Awesome. It's better than the 10 minute overtime. Yeah, much better. Sid was way better than the 10 minute over time. You know what? A lot of people are talking about it. If we get Frank, if Frank does come on, tell, fuck, warn them. Do not bring up 10 minutes of overtime. Or talk about it. Bore everyone. So they should.

shut the show off. It's a friggin' time bomb waiting to go off. You fighting is with each other. That's good for ratings. I just, we have to ask Frank about it now. You make it sound like the first thing that was like all anybody talked about. Okay, Canada wins. Now, are we changing overtime length in the N8? No. No. No. It was overtime was pretty exciting. And it was. It was the best part of the game. And that's, that's it. I don't understand how my take is wrong.

You're suggesting this is everyone's lead. It's not. This is not anyone's lead. It's not the big takeaway. It's been our hottest topic. No, it's not. We talked about goaltending already. We talked about the tournament.

I think, honestly, the credibility of the tournament. There's a lot of people that said, this is going to suck. It's going to be like an all-strike game. Last night's game did a lot to distance itself from that take. The first half was not was, yeah. Yeah, yeah, it might have been the best flames game of the year.

Like the first half was, but we're not comparing it to a flames game. We're comparing it to best on best nine years since we've seen it. But again, it was the first game of the tournament and all of that. I just, if they don't tie it, what does the game look like? Like you say, if it gets to three, nothing, three, two. We can play the, if this happened game, all we know is that we had one game, we judged that one game. I thought it was an awesome bleeping game. The first, I mean, you get that early power play, and it was that friggin pass and then goal.

Crosby was amazing. Yes. Last night. He was the best player in the nurse. Jack, you're right. Crossby's amazing. Oh, maybe he's not going to be on the team. Is he too old?

Well, I guess he'll wear the sea. Should McDavid wear the sea? He owned the night. It's time to pass the, no. He owned the night. You're thinking of this like avalanche GM, Chris McFarlane. is he up there kind of, where's Dubus at? Stubis up here.

Just wondering. I know Sid said he's not really interested, but that's what he's going to say. You know, trade deadlines coming up. That's at the end of the tournament when he's played with this McKinnon fellow for four games. We don't have anybody wearing 87 in Colorado. You could probably make that work if, you know, Sid was interested. But could I sell you? Yeah, Casey Middlestadt.

But it was awesome. for to watch him because it's also awesome because the fans were so behind they were so behind him chatting his name Mario comes out Sid takes over I mean it is kind of storybook stuff big time but does it happen anywhere like I don't know I was going to say maybe if it's Toronto you bring someone else out but Mario in Montreal like the World Cup was announced yesterday which is no surprise you're going to go stagger it every even numbered year that's not Olympics as we expected they want to get back to this. every two years is best on best. There's a thought that, okay, 2028, you've got a World Cup. Man, Calgary and Emmerich who are going to have two of the newer rinks on earth. There's going to be some games in North America, some of Europe.

Could you have something here? And I was thinking, if you had one in Calgary, who would come out? You're like, well, it's got to be a Ginglinl. Like, imagine him coming out in front of a team Canada game, and you can talk about the golden goal. And you, but Mario in Montreal was the perfect, perfect spark for that building to go off in a tournament

where people really, I don't know how convinced. they're going to be, it was going to be great or not. Yeah. But with that was, there couldn't have been a better start than Mario in Montreal. The crowd was a big part of it. Right. Yes. They do it right. Yes. I don't always love the abs. I know. Sometimes I understand this. The you from failing hands. We pass. Okay. We get it. But it's the ceremony. It's the. I'll tell you what, though, even the festival environment, Dan Fuss, all the guys that play there, not everyone, I guess. But there is a certain level of,

mystique mystique and class that is associated with those players and how they handle it's a royalty right yes it's funny you brought that up because I was as you're watching this guy played this former Montreal Canadian captain

Vincent da Fus oh yeah I guess he still thought maybe it'd be Sakukoi or somebody more exciting for us but yeah poor poor I'm Carvey. Well, I mean, we've talked about the goal tent. I don't know.

The Kempe shot shouldn't go in. Correct. And I just wonder about the Brodeen. Now it's off his shoulder, but it's kind of in the middle of the net. I almost wonder how did he still, how did he miss it? You're not going to beat Connor Hallibuck with that shot. That's who they play on Saturday. Now, some big saves in overtime, but generally speaking, man.

probably shouldn't need overtime. Yeah. But for the entertainment value of the game, through the roof. Yeah, just in terms of the goaltending. He makes the big save in overtime. He looked more dialed in and active in overtime.

Yeah. It's like he was. And he didn't see a lot of rubber early to be fair. That's true. It's probably game one. It's the one thing, yeah. So they had a scoring chance or something like,

ooh. It's the one thing probably Cooper didn't need. It's a great night. Unbelievable. But it's, as great if that doesn't happen though either right yeah i guess one victory is a fairly standard what we expected okay but for his guts it's like do i go with bennington well yeah oh yeah he's my guy didn't like the kempie goal well i would be interested because it's armstrong running things right

yeah how much i'm sure and it's all together and but in the back of cooper's head he's like he's freaking guys because that happened and i again all the world Cups and Olympics kind of get jumbled together for me. But when Pat Quinn was coaching team Canada and went with what, Luongo over Kujo and then Kujo was pissed. I remember they came back to Toronto and their first night back, hey, gold, our gold medal winning Canada team and so and so and Curtis Joseph back,

and you could see because Joseph didn't touch the net. And he was fucking sour with Quinn. That's kind of real. There is some real stuff there. Because wasn't it Marty St. we got sour with Stevie Y when he was in Tampa about not making Team Canada there. Well, and I don't know that Colton Pareko makes this team with 31 other GMs running it. I mean, maybe five of them he does.

There's better players in Colton Pereko, but it's Doug Armstrong's guy. He's huge and defensively sound, except on that disaster goal. That feels like I know that player well. I've gone to war with him pick rather than absolutely one of the best six Canadian defenseman pick. Yeah. I didn't even look at the D that obviously we talked about goaltending and that's a short conversation. And then up for a while should Shifley be there.

There were some names there. There's always going to be questions when you have this caliber of team. And I don't think I have an opinion that they did play take players that aren't the highest caliber. Sorelli Kine Bennett would be that. Right. And that's fine. That's fine. And if they win, it won't matter.

But. And last night was awesome. Got everybody interested. very excited. If they blow it and by blow it, lose. They don't win the thing. If they don't win, the bullseye, it's coming. Yeah. It is coming.

Yeah. And it's, I don't care how good they play. It's coming. Yeah. Yeah. And I like those selections. And I think they're also guys in markets that don't get enough love in Canada. Like, I think if you had Hagel playing in Edmonton or Toronto, people wouldn't shut up about them. Do we have the Marchand goal by chance?

Jarvis had a hell of the night. I've got all the highlights. I just don't. We got in trouble last. Oh, okay. Should I show it quickly? Yeah. I guess we'll find out. Yeah. If you're, uh, just take it. We'll just come back and join us. Just take down the just, just have our pretty faces on there and then go straight to the vid. No sponsors or whatever. Um, it's kind of a neat part of this play.

You know, Seth Jarvis was he Winnipeg kid. He played Carolina. A young guy. He's got a big contract. The play that is made. So Perico moves it up. He's on the wall here. Is it? You can't really tell in Sloan what's just kind of. off the skate and he's got headman right on top of him. It's a good pass. Off the skate, right onto the tape. All your kids out there headbag the puck, eh?

And there you see it. It's two nothing at that point. Swedes don't have a shot. Just right here. I'm going to just. Right on them. Zink. Point's good, man.

God. Are they going to trade Marchand if they fall out? No. I think they'll lose them for nothing rather than trade them. They're too hard-headed. to think he'd sign elsewhere, in my opinion, the Bruins. Been a weird year there. Yep.

Doesn't feel right anymore, does it? They've not really instilled a lot of confidence in the front office with the decisions they've made of the last six months. Again, the internet being what it is, like, if Brad Marchand moves, the Oilers would be a destination. No. Don't do it. I like you, Brad Marchand. I really do.

It took a while, but I'm there. Don't go do this to me now. Don't do it. Not now. Don't do this to me. So the game today is the, uh, the,

the dirty, dirty yanks. Yep. Is that what it is? Deep dirty, dirty yanks. Yeah. Against the squeaky clean fins.

The limping fins. Yeah. Limping fin. Is that what it is? There it is. Yeah. I, uh, now listen,

not sure we're going to see overtime tonight. Our faces are on the screen. We have no, no room to laugh at any. anybody anyone's head shots but from from left to right i'm not i mean that's i call almost it kind of looks like he's on the muppit show or something yeah he does sure is fossey bear there's something there vibes yeah i don't know about like austin is it's kind of got that chinese dictator hair the mouss et dung or whatever like it's kind of getting up high in the corners

definitely got a vibe yeah he and you know what he was one of the first of the the new young guys to the mustache. It was like, that's weird. And it was a little vote for Pedro high school mustache for a while too. She's tick now. Tick, tick, but tick. Yeah. And that's Sebastian Ahho. Good hair. Good looking guy.

Must hair on the screen. He's kind of giving you very much a sideways glance as though you farted in church or something. Do you not know that is my girlfriend? Why are you talking to her? Are you kidding me right now? With that? And then the captain, Sasha Barkoff. He's like, that was me. I voted.

he's just that's me when's uh when when are we eating jello he's just kind of happy go lucky young anyway so it was going to be a hell of it's going to be great bangor it's going to be a great game they're missing hayskin in like uh the desert misses the rain dean you know who's got a nice decor not the fin are you talking nest there you'd be in swedes oh yeah yeah they were good there like Yeah. Rasmus and I were both eating popcorn watching that one last night. Did you check in with Rass? How's he doing? Ah, he's sour. Yeah, he thought sour was sort of. Why are you so pissy, Rasmus?

He said, fuck off. What is this? How'd you get my number? Fat boy, what are you doing? Hey, tubby, shut it. Um, so not totally. Well, and the decor tonight without Quinn Hughes is pretty incredible as well. Like, Slavin, Fox, Werencky, McAvoy, Hanifin, Faber, Sanderson's the seven. imagine Quinn Hughes in there. You had to punt one of those guys out. That's right.

We're good to go. We have boots on the ground as we head to the Crystal Waters. Inside her hotline. Our buddy Frank Sarajevois joins us. Yes. From La Belle Provence. I'm asking them too, buddy. All right?

Okay. For sure. Crystal Waters, crystal clear choice for, just say, come in and just make sure we're all good. Do you make sure my house is okay? They're at my house yesterday, checking things. So, there is at my house a lot. Sounds like it.

Wait a minute. When you're not there, I'm never home. 403, 219, 4100. Check him out crystal clear Calgary.com. Let's go and say hello to Frank Sarah Valley, who was there last night. Frankie boy. I'm Mr. Frank. There he is.

The, we were just kind of, the things we were talking about. It was a, I don't know if you want to call it genius, but having Montreal as a host city, really, the fans in the building, I think, made it. a difference last night as they brought the juice early and it was there throughout the game. And I, obviously, the game came through with an overtime and it was exciting. But there's something about games in Montreal and just their passion that on television, on radio, it comes through. You can feel it. Yeah, look, I think John Cooper said it best after the game.

He said Montreal just does hockey right. And there's really no place quite like it. It's a million things. It's the mystique of this franchise that inhabits this building. When you look up and you can see Stanley Cup champion 1918, like, that's crazy. But it's also the way that this building, the volume in here, it's the attention to detail that fans have to the game. like they are so in tune with every little aspect of the game it's i don't it's not that they know hockey better it's just that they're not surfing on their phones they're so zoned in on the game

that i think it just provides the atmosphere that you get in other canadian markets during a playoff game but they do that here in the regular season then you add in on top of it the way they do pomp and circumstance ceremony and uh you know know the NHL bringing out some of the legends that they did led with lay magnific himself in Mario Lemieux. It just, it's, it makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up. No place does hockey quite like Montreal. And I say that with all due respect to every other market. It's just not the same. And for a tournament that there were a lot of us, you know, skeptical on the fence. I let's see if the hockey's good, that sort of thing. Mario comes out and

the crowd's engaged and the Canada scores early. Sid puts on a short. show they're chanting Sydney's name. I'm sure they'd be chanting Crosby or something in Montreal, maybe, or in Toronto. But in Montreal, you can feel it. Like they are from the bottom of their guts and heart. They're cheering and rooting for Sidney Crosby. This has to be a dream come true for Gary and all the people at the league and everyone who put this together because people are engaged now.

Even if you were on the fence, like, yeah, Canada, U.S., for sure, Saturday. It's now an appointment if maybe it wasn't before. Look, I don't understand where the hate for this tournament came from to begin with. It's everything we've been asking for for a long time with the exception of, okay, so we don't know the name of the trophy and exactly what they're playing for other than bragging rights. Maybe that's the way that it should be. Do the Olympic rings mean something more?

Does the World Cup of hockey mean something less? I guess in your own eye, but good luck telling Sidney Crosby or Connor McDavid or Nathan McKinnon that this doesn't mean anything. I knew from the second these teams started to come together that you were going to get their best effort and you were going to get real hockey. The type of people that are complaining about this event saying it means nothing and it's fake and made believe, first off, the NHEL isn't really making. a profit on this. They're just hoping, I think, and praying to break even with what they're spending to put it on. And two, they're the same people that would complain during sex.

So there you're... What's the... Sex. Oh, we would need to have it first, Frank. To then complain about it in fairness. That's a you problem. Oh, that's... It is a few problem.

Sex. But you, and you forget that there's nine years and this whole thing. since the last time. I don't think Seth Jarvis here. It's longer than that. It's 11. I mean, because guess what?

Connor McDavid and Austin Matthews didn't get the play for their countries then. Last night is the first time in his life. Connor McDavid's worn a Canada jersey and best on best. That's a crime. Yeah. Since juniors. I can say that I was poo-poo in this and I'm very happy to watch it now. It takes a big man to wear that.

Well done. No, was it the atmosphere? Was it the compete? Like, what did it? We've talked about it. Montreal adding on, Lemieux walking out,

you said it. It gave me goosebumps. Like it's, he's unbelievable. The Crosby support. The way the guys played. Like it's, yeah,

I was not excited about it. I did not care about it. I made sure I watched it. Now, I also think that I was going to ask you, when we talked about it and everyone is, three one game, the same result?

Are we as passionate about it today if it's a 3-1 ending and that game never comes together for the overtime that we got well you can thank jordan bittington for that um because they should have locked it down at 3-1 but um here's the truth in any international tournament whether it's the olympics or what have you there's a real good chance tonight's game between the u.s and finland is a blowout yeah had had we opened the tournament in boston and that was the first game would everyone feel differently about it maybe does the drama of the game add another element or layer to it. Yes, but I would argue still all the things you just mentioned, Lemieux followed by that early power play goal, followed by, you know, this team

being ready to play and, and flying, that there probably would have still been a fair amount of pride and, um, and excitement about the way that it played out, you know, even just getting to that with the way that Sweden had locked it down. What do you, what's your, I guess, two things. What would you do or what sense do you get the Cooper will do in net going into the game on Saturday? Okay, so there are two different things. What I think Team Canada will do is ride with Jordan Bennington. For one, John Cooper hinted kind of at the beginning of this tournament that in his perfect world, he'd have the same guy roll all the way through. It's four games at most. And now Canada has two off days before getting to the U.S. on Saturday. And he was also pretty complimentary of Binnington after the game and presented what he's,

his message to him was very simple. You know, maybe you get a save that you normally otherwise wouldn't make, but just make the saves that you should. And that's really all Team Canada is asking of their goaltending because of the firepower that they have is give us a chance to win. Don't sink us. And it's,

it's not all that different than the proposition that a lot of teams in the NHL have on the salary cap is we're not looking. for one of the five or seven super elite net minders, we're looking for league average. Unfortunately for Canada, that's exactly what they got was very average from Jordan Binnington, which brings me to what I would do, which is I'd turn to Aden Hill.

I know it's a pressure cooker against the Americans, and I know that things will be hot, and you're going to want to run with the feistiness that Jordan Binnington brings, not just in his fake tough guy scheme that he's got going trying to fake fight everyone, but also in the confidence that he exudes. He's got this sort of mamba mentality thing going on where,

regardless of what the actual reality is, he thinks he's the best in the world. And that's a powerful drug having that confidence as a pro athlete. That said, again, 3-1 should have locked it down, and I didn't love some of the goals. I didn't love the Kempai goal on the one on two, regardless of how poor Drew Doughty's gap was on that play. And I would make the change and go with a guy who's won a Stanley Cup more recently.

It's not a huge difference, but what if Jordan or what if Aiden Hill gives you a better run in game two against the Americans? It gives you optionality that I think if somehow Canada loses Saturday with Binnington and net and he gets shelled, turning to Aiden Hill, yes, it's against Finland to close out your round Robin and might be easier. but turning to Aiden Hill in that spot who hasn't played in the tournament, by the way, winner we're out, that's a whole other ball of wax. Yeah,

I think you laid it out perfectly. I'm with you. I think I'd prefer Aiden Hill, but they've picked their guy and he gets to start against the Americans and we'll see from there. Rhett, would you have liked to have gotten your hands

on Jordan Bennington back in the day? As in fake fight? I'll love to fake fight too. Yeah, they would have been great dance partners. You weren't a real. Let me add them. I got to throw a few fall. Oh, I slipped.

Son of a bitch. We've discussed it already on the show. So I'll just kind of get you in here. The goal that won the game was scored in overtime. I guess, is there any, do you know why they decided to go with 10 minute overtime periods as opposed to five in the NHL regular season? Well, I think they really wanted to try and do everything they can to avoid a shootout. Right.

which should be the name of the game in the NHL. And I've been a staunch advocate for 10 minute three on three going back 10 years. They deleted all my old articles at TSN, but one of the things that I wrote kind of early on in my tenure there was now that we have three on three and can look at the expected goals, the math, it's just a math problem. The math will tell you increasing three on three overtime to nine minutes will produce a goal 90.

93% of the time. How many unbelievable chances did Nathan McKinnon have in that OT? And of course, he was the guy sort of fake complaining after the game that he was gassed. Well, he didn't pass the puck and he also didn't get off the ice. So I can imagine why he was gasped. But why did they go to that? Because they didn't want to have an anticlimactic shootout that ends a game, particularly one as competitive as the one we saw last night.

It's just kind of a letdown that everyone walks out of the building. Like, oh, man, that could have ended so much different. differently. So I think also a trial balloon. Let's see how the players react to this because ultimately at the end of the day, the NHLPA is going to have to agree to a rule change like this. And they'd have to have the players on board. And you did hear lots of positive comments from the Canadian players after the game saying, hey, we'd be all for that. I think there's just a different strategy involved when it would come to something like that. Yeah. And to be fair, in a tournament, you don't want the shootout settling your game on a Tuesday in February in Game 58 of

maybe you do want to get out the door a little quicker. And the way they play the game in the end of the end of course. Because I'm with you. I think I'd be in, I'd want to say I'd be up for seeing 10 minutes. But would that just be another five minutes of playing. I'm in. Now I'm going to skate it back out and now we'll change.

Because it can be a lot of that some nights. But let me just allow, like let me wet your appetite for a second though. Next Thursday, a week from tonight in Boston championship game. It goes to Stanley Cup play. playoffs over time, which is play till there's a winner. Can you imagine what that would be like next Thursday?

Yeah. I love that's how it should be. You're lifting a trophy. That's how it should go. The HF has screwed this up royally. Yeah, I mean, it's a talking point today because it was exciting as like it was crazy. But you had the best players in the world and they were clearly trying to win. They were not, let's get to.

It was. McKinnon, McDavid and McCar. Yeah. On the ice for like three to four minutes. of the 606 that were played insane. How does it, like, I was thinking about Dowdy last night. Now, he hasn't played lots. Six games.

This guy has been a stud his whole life and the guy. Well, didn't he say afterwards, this is the fastest game I've ever played into my life. Yeah, I'm just saying that then you're watching McCar. Yeah. And you're sitting on the bench. It's not a criticism. It's just a, how does a guy like Dowdy who's being the guy, probably, yeah, 99% of the games he's played in.

Now he's watching other guys take over. I don't think he's not going to make this team. Wow. There's some rough games coming back from injury. So John Cooper actually talked about this post game last night, and he said it's always a tough situation as a coach because you're taking guys that play 20 minutes a night for their team. And in Dowdy's case, a lot more.

and you're stapling them to the bench, you're shortening your bench for a period of time as the game gets super close. He said the amazing part about doing that last night was that those guys that normally would be the guy were the loudest guys on the bench cheering their teammates on. And he said, he looked around for a second

and thought, hey, this is a really short tournament. We're only together for 10, 12 days. We had two practices leading into this. He said, we might actually have a really tight team. Now, I get it. You're going to hear every country say that at this tournament. But if that is true and an accurate portrayal of what the bench was actually like, probably a pretty good indication for Team Canada, not just at this tournament,

but as, you know, the sort of peeling back the first layer on the onion of what the 2026 Olympics look like. The thing of, I'm trying to think of for a guy like Doughty is like, of course you're going to be supportive, not just because you're playing for Canada, this or that, but you know what it's like. when you're the guy on the ice you don't need to come to the bench and have some guy effing mopen because he hasn't been out there right like you know how disheartening is like where are you I'm out like this is what it is let's go so I would think that every team but if they're not like that I'd be more shocked right like then it's it's inevitable that someone will be though someone will be the prick because that's just how life works you're gonna see someone

that's sour, whether it's on Finland, Sweden, US, or and how do you think the guys felt watching from the press box last night? Yeah. I think those guys should be more butt hurt than the other guys than sitting on the bench. That'd be hard. Rasmus Anderson, you're a second pair guy at skate.

But even that. Ferslin gets healthy now you're watching. Sam Bennett, Stanley Cup winner. I mean, like, you're like being on that ice with those players. Well, you could make the argument he didn't earn the right to be on the team to begin with. But there was a heavy dose of recency bias from playoffs and the cup.

And a good start to the year. And I think they really tried to build that bottom six with like real dog on bone players, not the highest skill players. Okay. Yeah. But we left off like one of the best dog on bone players that also happens to be a great finisher in Zach Hyman. But I know you're not allowed to say that.

This is a CalGELGEL. Talk about that, Frank. Thanks for bringing that up, Frank. We got to let you go. Yeah. It does, it does have the feel of what. it could be a blowout tonight.

What's the vibe there as the Americans get ready for the Finns? I just think there's so much to prove. And you're not going to learn anything by playing Finland. But I was talking to Mike Arruzioni for a story on Daily Face Off today. And he came up here and went to dinner with this US team on Monday night, which everyone knows about now and Gigajaro and they brought him in and Rob McClanahan and Mike Bedano. This is the best, this is his words and his quote. This is the best collection of American talent that's ever been on an ice surface.

And that's also not really shocking because the U.S. has been building to this moment for a long time. Mike Ruzioni played on the best team because of what they accomplished, but they were a group of college kids. And then you had the 1996 World Cup of Hockey team, which was right in the middle of Rett's era and world. And they helped shape a generation of hockey players that resulted. in the Austin Matthews type players. They open the score, yeah. Right. But now it's time to deliver.

I don't want to hear any more about silver medals in Salt Lake or in Vancouver. Getting close and not winning doesn't matter anymore. This program has been built to a point with the firepower that they have to go toe to toe with the 800-pound gorilla in the room that is Team Canada. and until they can slay that beast, until they can be the team that stands at the top of the mountain and celebrate, whether it's with a fake trophy or not, whether it's getting set and sending that message ahead of the 20206 Olympics or not, they've got their work cut out for them. And again, all this talk about how far the U.S. has come and how they're right there with Canada, I don't want to hear the words anymore.

It's about delivering. And I think that's the pressure that they're feeling, knowing that everyone's watching them now to say, you know, you've got a little bit of Toronto Maple Leafs in you right now. You've been there. You've gotten close. You've had really good players,

but you haven't gotten over the hump. So Quinn Hughes is hurt, but it's still a great blue line. You talked about some of the curious emissions for Team Canada. You mentioned Hyman. I know a lot of people like Shifley for the offense. What are the sort of talking points around the American roster? Is there somebody sitting at home?

You're like, damn, that guy, they're going to rue that decision. Yeah, I think there was a lot of recency bias also in leaving Jason Robertson off. Remember, he had a really poor start to the year. And in talking to team USA executives, he actually played his way off of the team. And they were all very surprised. So this is a guy that the U.S. has gotten to a point where they could leave a 45, 50 goal score, and 120 point player off of their roster. And no one even batted an eye.

They were like, oh, Jason Robertson, didn't make it. Yeah, yeah, okay, makes sense. When on earth would that have ever been the case for any American-born player that's had that level of success in the NHL? And also been part of a lot of deep playoff runs with the Dallas Stars. This isn't a guy that, you know, just, hey, he was a flash in the pan and one good season. No. Jason Robertson's one guy I would look at it. And I don't think you can overestimate the material significant change that the U.S.

has to their roster with Quinn Hughes gone. This is a heart trophy candidate this year that it'd be deleting Kail McCar from Canada. It's just not the same team. And I think that's a huge storyline heading into this that they've got to find a way. Yeah, Adam Fox can run a power play and he's got a Norris trophy on his shelf. But he ain't Quinn Hughes. You're not related to Brock Nelson, are you? I feel seen with all the criticism that he's had.

I mean, obviously, I'm close to the, you know, body fat percentage that Brock Nelson is. But the prematureing gray is just, man, everyone's saying who invited someone's grandpa of this tournament and who would say that. Jeez. Internet. Assholes would say that. Hey, so much like watching Crosby and Doughty lead the way for the next wave, you're there with guys like Yeremchuk and some other young guys.

Are you doing the same like Chey Pari and. I'm a Sutra. St. Catherine's. Are you doing the yeoman's work out there? I'm trying. I'm trying to be a leader on and off the ice. And just I feel like sometimes just providing a, you know, putting the card down on the table does the trick too.

Funny. Sure does. How that works. You need to tell us how great the Eagles are at all or can we? No, I'm good. I had that time, Artie. It's pretty clear. So you took your kid.

Hey, you got your boy. That's, it's not much better than having a kid who's a huge fan of a team and watching them win a championship. that's unreal but i'll tell you what was the coolest part uh like experiencing it with my kid yes um lifetime memory insanely fortunate to be able to do it uh but looking around in a sea of eagles green in the upper deck at the super dome third quarter eagles are up 34 nothing and me and my son are just doing the mock casey chant yes just rubbing it nothing like truly nothing better Very Philly.

Yeah, very nice. Frank, and then, by the way, right after that, Mahomes threw an absolute dart to Xavier worthy and they scored. And the guy next to me,

also from Philly, he goes, maybe we better sit the hell down. Karma. Bad karma. It's not ruin this. Appreciate you, Frank.

We'll reach out, I guess good luck for the Americans tonight. I don't root, but it'll be an interesting game. Should be. Thanks, Frank. See you guys. There you go.

Frank, Sare Valley. And. complaining during sex yeah you shouldn't it's not a good much like bad karma yes but if you're

you do the super bowl your team might not make the Super Bowl again start doing that during it's just you know opportunities could run out yeah that's the insider hotline presentation of our good friends at Crystal Waters plumbing and heating if you are a barn burner listener watcher fan

dare I say hot water heater AC furnace you'll discounts and upgrades up to a thousand bucks in value. Why? Because they care. They care. Care about Rhett. Care about Ryan. Even Jack. Not many people do, but they do. It must feel good, Jack. I care about you. They're not judging. Crystalclearcallagery.com. Nice. It's good of Frank to come on with us. It is good. Frank. Good old Frank. Frankster, Franklin. Good old Frank. Do you really care of Hyman's on the two? No. He has, you know what? I think is a consistent thread of all the guys that Frank talked about slow starts

and GM's overhandle because of a two month sample that's still two months away from the tournament. In hindsight, you probably want Robertson, you probably want Hyman. You probably don't need Sam Bennett as much as you thought you did when he got off to a hot start. But that's

this guy's the part of the job. And then on the same, Sam Bennett cost Canada, anything yet by being there? No. I don't think that's stupid penalties. No, yeah, absolutely not. it's if he gets in, there's going to be some, how would Hyman do?

But again, like every team has these questions. I don't think it's a huge, how dare you? But there are some great, if you did a, we weren't wanted team. Could we make one more team?

Hell yeah. The castoffs. I mean, you'd have Weger tan of, home the Hanks. Shifley Hyman Robertson. That's a pretty good starting five right there. Wilson.

Demco and Nett. Thompson backing them up. That's a good team. Just like Brian Rosen Two already. Two in the first hour. It's maybe overdone. Never.

No. And we are going to see Travis Sandheim, which that is an interesting decision as well. Because Theodore done for the tournament. He got hurt last night. What happened to him? Wrist looked like, hey, got kind of hit on the, it wasn't a huge hit necessarily.

Week to week was announced by the Golden Knights this morning. Kind of bracing himself against the glass. Are they doing it again, the bastards? No. Well, they've already got, could really use a blue liner. Petrangelo off on the sidelines. Get some cap space. We'll go out of stud defense.

Quinn Hughes to Vegas. Oh, geez. How? I thought it was Miller and Patterson. How did you? Crimin. Real good. But they're on the flip side, Vegas going to be a playoff team.

McCriman would have been sour last night. Mother. That's why I told Alex he can't go. There is that on the same team as the great. Totally. Yeah. And Rick Talkett's assistant on team Canada. He had to sit down with Quinn Hughes.

Stay home. Jack. Sorry. What were you? No, yeah. What's up? Big yank, big day. What was it like watching Sid last night? You're a penguins guy. It was amazing. Because I'll tell you what. I didn't need to. I kind of fell back in love with Sid

last night. Sid. He's my favorite. We know he's the great. He's Sid the kid, the whole thing. Oh, he's point per game. Guys, having a great season. We know that.

But then to sit. But the penguins are garbage, so I don't want to watch him. This is brute. That guy's amazing. Fell in love with Sid again last night. Sid fell in love with winning again because he doesn't have to finish in Pittsburgh. No, you can move on. It's your choice.

Now I'm with you, people will sit out of there. Yes, thank you. But that was the whole thing. If Sidney Crosby wants a trade, he's going to get it. 100%. Yeah, no question. I don't think anyone would debate that. You got, like, Frank will say,

you got McKinnon and McCar and Crosby on the ice at the same time. And McDade. So what if you had three of those four? I'd say go hang another banner. Like, that's what we're talking about here. Like, Sid, tell Dubis, that's where we want to go. You'll go there and then you get to do this again. because what if they have about two

there's three games left potentially if they're electric I mean he's the best player on the ice last for another three games two games why wouldn't they be electric they're two of the best five players on earth yeah everyone everyone and even

like Colorado they did it with Ray Bork yep they brought in Patrick Waugh David Anderchuk yeah Davey Iggy yeah tags But that would be one of those things. Would you look at it and say this,

this is all time. Oh yeah. Hockey legend type stuff. Yeah. Is there any way we can get Sidney Crosby in Colorado? There's one way and he just has to say, get me to Colorado. Yeah.

The rest will get figured out. Like you said, if he says it, it's happening. And they're going to do. Say no to him. And you wonder if you knew the, oh, it's chemistry. Yeah, well, they spend the summers together. They train. Yeah, they're both very good players.

but if it could and it was a power play obviously but there's so what the two played in the same if they're having a friggin blast and scoring goals and winning it's like you know sid we should do how if there's any other way we could do this we'll do this in a this is four games we don't have to wait till the olympics next year sid yeah so already you got a PJ going back to colorado after this thing let's hop on and you know david is saying that sid is very clear he's not leaving pit. I know. That's what he said publicly. I know. Just like that's what you have. Jerome will always be a flame. You have to. Can't trade Jerome again. Jerome's

a career flame. He'll only be a flame. He's on a career flame until he wasn't. He has to say that. He's the captain. He's the face of the franchise. Been that guy. He's like, oh, I don't know, maybe. And he has. The way he's wired, it's not like he's sitting in November. Like, geez, I don't know if we're good. He's like, no, no, we can still do this. He's the most competitive guy ever. It's going to take him. He might be saying, I will make us good. That's just fine. I don't need you dusters.

Until they're eliminated, he believes. That's kind of the guy he is, isn't it? So at that point, he'll say shit. What are my other options? Jack, he still believes. See, I feel bad. I jumped in on Jack. Oh, Jack.

What was it like watching Sid? It was amazing watching Crosby. And yeah, like the last couple of years has been dog shit. And that guy loves to compete. He loves to win. And I was hooked right from the beginning after that first goal. I really was watching just to watch Crosby. he was the best player on the ice all night long

and he wants it so bad I approve of the trade to Colorado. I think you would be heart-pressed to find a Penguins fan that wouldn't want him to go to Colorado at this point. He's done enough for you. Same as the Bork with the Bruins, right? Yeah, because it's like, A, you love the player. You'd never question their loyalty.

You don't want them to feel guilty because fans want you there. And if you're the Penguins, you want to be good again. It's not hanging on to Sid for another three years. It's think about what you could get back, like two, three first rounders, middle stat and a prospect, something like that. And that's how you get good again. The Boston Bork thing was, well, go win. Sid, Sid's brought cups to Pittsburgh.

Yes. It was like they ever won with Bork in Boston. You got a lot of mileage out of Sid. Let him go have fun. That's why all the, I think Pence fans would be entirely supportive of that. It'd be like parent, like being a parent, go outside and play with your friends. Don't make them stay inside and do homework. Dubus, don't punish.

Let him play with his pal. Don't punish your kid. McKinnon's on the lawn. He deserves nice things. Yeah, this is a Cid deal. He orchestrates it. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. They are going to, in Montreal, boo the shit out of the Americans. Yes, they are. Yes. Well, and Saturday will be an incredible master class of booing, and there's going to be an anthem. That's going to be a disaster.

Like between what's going on in the world. Yes, which is a big thing. Plus, just it's the Americans. There's going to be a lot of love for the Finns tonight. I'm telling you, fellas, we are embarking on the best rivalry we've seen in the sport for a long time. Canada, USA is going to be gnarly for the next decade. You spell that with a G. Gnarly.

I don't know why. The Russians. It's like when was Canada or Russia a good rivalry? When last was that? Like, you give a seven-year-old that word? Spell narly. Why would they add a G? I don't know.

Give a 12-year-old that you'd have some problems still. Narls Barkley? G. Gnarles. What else is there? A gnat? The bug. Nash.

Nash your teeth. Yeah, if you gnash-gash-ing teeth. Yeah. Gnuckie. Isn't that the name of the predator's mascot? Nash. His name bar is Genn- No, G- No, G-

there's G, but no, you don't say it. Silence is what they call it. Someone do some research on this. Those plays by Crosby. Stone gets a hell of a shot off. Incredible that he gets it. He's totally covered. I don't know how he's ready for it.

It's like, oh shit, there it is. And it's just on his tape and he flicks his wrist. It's incredible. Like watch Sid. Watch Sid on, because this is Foresling, right? He doesn't beat, he doesn't blow the doors off of him. But he's got, bang. That is so fast.

Stone's got two guys with an arm length of them. And he's like, yeah, there's no way Sid's going to, oh, shit, this is on my tape. How did he do that? Watch how covered stone. Give me some whiteboard. I'm the Swedish defenseman. I got Sid, okay, I got, okay, good shape. I cut him off.

I got it covered for everyone's all. Who is that? And they scored. So he takes, you could see it. He takes the peak. He knows he's got Stonewell. I mean, he takes the head, the head man pass from him. But there's not a lot of.

space for watch how covered stone gets as he's set to make this pass he literally threads the needle here like it's just out of the reach of the defenseman you probably want a better stick from zabinajad i think wow the other issue you have as a defender you're so concerned with sid yeah yeah oh shit yeah and forsling plays it great yeah but all of a sudden it's a button hook and in your net now we're now we're just watching hockey what's he 38 37 but that Yeah, and then the overtime winner. Dude, see a heady play. You know, is these guys need to change.

That, that bump back past thing. It's not like he just kind of, far. Far. What if it's, if you turn that over, it's, and then gets himself back on side. That was the thing for me. It's like, oh, he's offside. He knows he needs to change and he's just like, all through here.

It's like a two zone bump back. Hell of a shot for sure. I think if you're Swedes, you're like, stop that puck, please. Yeah, yeah, probably. Right? And he had made some saves. That blocker save he makes. Like that one's not the one you want to lose on.

It's a hell of a shot and he's in the slot. But what's going through Sid's head here? There's nothing but yellow shirts. I'm just going to dump it. I don't anyone else thinks to do that. I really don't. Because they're like, I'm one on three. My guys are changing.

And since like, if I see all three yellows. Everyone else is going to turn up and hang on to it. a perfect shot too. So yeah, give us the whiteboard. Sid's brain. What's in Sid's brain? Well, how the F would I know? Because I'm just the scared guy sitting on the bench.

But most guys are going to take this into that open lane on the left or right side and wait for their guys to join. Yeah. Or like you say, regular season, you maybe dump it because you're gassed. You don't want to turn it. You don't want to turn it over. Well, dump is a turnover in three and three. I know, but it's. You go eat

it in the corner and try to pass it. No, you're going to go you're going to take it wide somewhere and hang on to it and wait for someone to join you. Or circle it back out yourself. Sure. That's labeled. Anyway. Anyway. I think we're into this tournament, fellas.

I hate to break it to people. So yeah, Sid, loved it. And screw you, Pinder for being right again. Damn. We got lots in the Pender report that dovetails right into this. I don't want to push anywhere, but there's some great data and memes to follow up everything we've just talked about. Yeah. Some data.

And not say the game helped in a big way. Totally. If it's 6-1, if Canada. I'll be honest. Because it would have had that World Junior, the first few games at World Junior, like, when do they play? When does it matter? When is it good? Let me know.

I had to tape it. They took the kid to soccer. And I walked back in and I was going, I had my plan, just like you were busy. I had my plan. I was going to make popcorn, watch the game. I had gone radio silent. Yeah, dark. walk into the house dumbass billy bob's got the game on with the bowl of popcorn already and it's

three one like oh let's take it right out of dad's go on bill billy be doing yeah and at that point i was like and then the other dumb ass forgot his shoes at the soccer center as you do yeah so back i go come back it's an f and overtime did he leave barefooted or they got to take the shoes to switch to But you PVR it, so you can go back and watch if you want. Did you set the timer on your VCR? I guess the point I was getting at was that at 3.1, I'm like, well, this is exactly what we thought. And then two nothing before they had a shot on net.

Yeah. It was like, America, Saturday should be good though. Yeah, you're kind of thinking this is the Babcock, just strangle your opponent and win three nothing despite a chance in the show. What? What about the 1980? 80 American team. Like the Finns are shit

because they're hurt and this and that. You know what the Finns do? And the Swedes last night. They have guys that are stars. And you said yesterday, pesky. Pesky. They know how to play. They're very good hockey players.

They're better than the 80 Olympics squad that got thrown together. And I'm just using it because Frank brought it up. Why is it like? They would be. that equivalent. It would be some hot gold tending. And you could get it with sorrow. So why not? Yes, of course.

I'd love to see a competitive game tonight. It's just when you look at that American roster, you're like, that's the Soviets in 1980. There's no way anyone could beat these guys. But of course, at some point. So just how does the tournament go? They each play each other once and then the finals on Thursday with the top two records. So the top

two teams play each other. We're expecting Canada and the USA. Somebody's losing Saturday night. Yep. And so So somebody will be one, sitting on two or three points. So the next game will be. Monday, Canada plays Finland. Sweden plays USA.

So same night. You could literally, if the Swedes, let's play it out. Like those Monday games for Canada or USA are going to be. You're going to need to win. But tightners. Yeah.

Right? Like it's. And that's when we say short term. And what it means is like you just don't, it isn't the world juniors. You don't get to play Kazakhstan and Belarus and get loose. Head to head. Like, you're into it already.

I'm guessing it's head to head moves on. It'll be point total. So Canada has two because they won. I know, but in term of tie break. Tie break could probably go a differential. But it could be head to head. Hard to say, yeah.

Yeah, I'll look it up. Whatever. But yeah. But tightener indeed. Butt tightening, but tightener. Tegels. Butt tightener. Yeah, I mean, look,

the Americans could be feeling real good about themselves and lose to the Swedes and all of a sudden you're into tiebreak land, right? Yeah. So know this big win for Canada last night. That they didn't completely shit themselves. It was there to happen. Kind of was, yeah. Yeah, two rep without a shot for the other guys.

I thought in overtime, I was like, like Bittington made that. I'm like, yeah, that was significant. They followed Gary's script. Is that what it was? Get everybody excited early, then have the sweets come back and then. Tiebreakers, page four. Oh, God.

head-to-head result between those two teams is the first tie breaker. If they tie, then it gets annoying. There you go. Do you think the anti-McDavid crowd even watched last night, like the in the dome? We got to check in with those guys.

They are like. Legends, imagine hating McDavid that much. That's incredible. I'm not sure for Canada. I don't want Canada win. Stupid Big David. You're really missing out. Really.

Just to boycott an event because of that. that's take some stones i'm not but i take my hat off to you ladies and gentlemen it was the perfect game for those guys mac david didn't really do anything yeah it was canada won yeah there's some games left though i i fear yeah only got one point yeah what an awful night to the office he too can skate probably i was funny they had him and mckinan out there three at the same time at one point it's like these guys have never played with anyone else that can skate with them they don't know what to do with each other yeah macdavid normally gains the zone and then looks for help.

And McKinnon's doing the same like, shit, these guys are the same. Yeah. They're both in the fast lane. I've never had to do this before. It's like you're saying, Bolt having a mirror image of himself, approaching 90 meters.

Like what? Someone's with me here. That's right. Fellas, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Ryan's got it all figured out. Valentine's Day tomorrow. Yeah, it looks like you're prepped and ready to run.

at least we're not busy for between now and tomorrow. Nothing going on except what for you, get kids packed up, maybe pick up a vehicle from the dealership and then drive to BC. Grab a vehicle, drive to BC,

pack a car, unpack a car. You're good. Aces. It's probably best that you wait until now. Yeah, I'll be efficient. Market Mall. Yeah. It's where you go.

Go directly. Do not pass go. Just straight to Market Mall and Venova. Lab grown diamonds. And I know what you're saying. Like you guys have been taught. Thank you for keeping us in the loop and reminding us over and over about Vinova.

It's what we do. But you know what? It gets better. There's already the savings that you have on the lab grown diamonds over the whatever. I don't even know. Are they a thing anymore? Anyway, the perfect lab grown, right now, if you use the promo code, V-day 20 or V-day-30. on the website,

extra savings at venanova.com. Justin. What a guy. And of course, I think pretty much as always, you go and it's like, hey,

Barnburner, wink, you get some love there too. But if you go to their website, it's all kind of laid out there, just what lab grown diamonds are, why they are superior, why they're great,

and they just happen to be at a significant savings over that of the mind diamond. Like that a lot. V-day 20, V-day-30, the promo codes you can use online or in store. V-day 30? I mean, if you go into, I'm trying to think. Burger a giant?

Yeah, if you go into food court, free pickle. They're not going to know what the hell you're talking about. There's one store in Market Mall that we'll know. And that's being an Ova. It's the move. I went there the other day just to park. Oh, really? that good yeah backed in a few jerk straight in a few sat around for a while just kind of

it's just like stretching out you know so come a massage check yeah go in grab a root beer come back out i'm gonna go to the other end i'm gonna go down here in park look that spot right there looks tight actually you know what nope it's just fine perfect damn good times yeah good times indeed the Pinder report. I feel bad. Our nation's baking off. I feel bad because I, I, we, I have been critical. But I also appreciate how much work goes into the Pinder report.

You always want feedback, don't you? I don't know if he does. Not this type of feedback. More support, less feedback. Maybe, yeah. The wonky sports. I got some more wonky sports. What they call it constructive criticism.

It's just kind of a lot of bitching. There's not a lot of offers to help. There's not a lot of it. The sandwich thing is good, bad, good. This is just the bad in the middle. There's not average bad. Is there any way I can assist you? That doesn't ever come up from us.

We just kind of. It's good, though, because the other side of it is we do like to annoy our co-hosts in the Pender report. That's actually one of the goals of its accomplishment. Village Honda, working on Ryan's car as we speak. Hopefully it's ready. They will be. They're always good.

They are always good. dang insurance company that's been giving me the wrong. Oh, really? Peter Klein on him. So VillageHonda.com, Northwest Automall, and of course the proud presenting sponsor of Ryan Pindy.

Well, we should do the O.T. winner, but you haven't seen this angle, fellas. How about from the rafters? Mitch Marner's winner, aided by Sidney Crosby in overtime against the sweets. It's amazing. Janet Crosby,

listening this is the Sweden's chance to win two on one and over two how does he do like what's he doing you're like turn over oh no that's what have the pop for me we like the horn it's a solid horn but it's not up to Montreal standards where you'd put them in every other power i love i like having a bit more base yeah yeah buffalo's got an elite

buffalo is great dallas is Dallas, good horn. Then they got that one in Evan. Awful. It's nasely, one of the worst horns in the league. Of course, in Washington, you get the siren. Yeah. That's a hell the goal.

A lot of Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Crosby. Let's start with Crosby doesn't lose. In the last 15 years, the team Canada, 26. That's Cam Robinson. And he's a, he's a legend. Apparently. Him and Crosby. Sid's a legend.

That is legend status. Cam, has nailed this year. Now, someone got very antsy in the comments. It actually, it was 14 years, 11 months and 6 days. You're right. It wasn't over the, it was less than 15 years. Why would you do that? How could you do that?

Because I know how you are as thickly. Come on Cam. Don't do that to us. More Crosby. What else did we got on Crosby? Because he's kind of the best player. Oh, isn't this cute? I know. He's still doing it for us. Yeah.

Iggy, Iggy, pass the puck. I love that. A golden gold. And we've all grown up young Homer too. Love young Homer. Look at all the hope he still has. He's been beaten out of him by society. Did you ever see the one where Homer's in the army?

My kid asked me about that last night. I don't remember that. I don't know. They're still doing that show, aren't they? You sure he wasn't on that adult website? Easy. Got more crowds before you. Look at all top selling jersey.

What else would you want but a candidate 87, hey? That's definitely my choice. I'm surprised it wasn't that four nations, uh, color. That's a slock that we saw yesterday. Yeah, very reasonable rate for that. I'm surprised that's not top sell credible rate, Harry. Credible rate. Deservably so.

And he won't get a cut of that, Willie. I mean, he's part of the PA. He'll get a cut. Really? I hope so. Dude. Dude. Dude.

Dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. I forgot of a dude.

Dude is fun. Dude. Dude. Dude. We need to do dude. I don't know if we need to do it. I have a feeling the next couple months, we might,

we could use some stuff like dude. We'll see how Huska's nightmare road trip goes. We might need dude to break the tension. Dude. Dude. Jack doesn't know what dude is. Do you know what dude is? No, what's all right.

What's dude? Jack, shut up. We'll let you off. Drew Dowdy had this to say about last night's contest. Dude, Doughty. dude said this that's the fastest hockey game i've ever played in and 35 not suggesting he's old but that he's played a lot of hockey like probably 20 years of elite some of the biggest matches you're sitting on the bench watching this happen a car doughty you're up you're up

no good i'm all right coop coop a loop Coop a loop. Get that oxygen tank anywhere? Coupe. Let's take a look at some four nation memes because we love them. Nice. Very good.

Four nations facing off. That's my favorite one out of the 30. That's the hair I'm talking about with Austin. What the hell's going on here? He looks like a Chinese dictator. Is that the Ming Dynasty haircut? What did you ask for, Austin? Like high in the corner.

He's working with what he's got. What is it? He's working with what he's got. I mean, Sometimes not working with that is, you can do what he wants. You'd be able to pull off that. Your hair lines hilarious.

Oh, is it? Well, yeah, I mean, what are you doing? Right now, I'm just lighting $100 bills on fire. Yeah. No, I just actually got a direct deposit for $307,000. You got a light and some folks. Sorry, my PJs leaving. I got to go.

Yeah, nothing like $100 million to make you sleep better at night. makes your hair look better too, Dean. There's your standings, not three points, which they would have had for a regulation win. Oh, oh. Dude. Dude, dude, dude, dude. That's what you want in this tournament.

You want a do, do, do, do, do. You want a two, twat, twat, twat. I like twa. Three points. Better than two. I guess. We'll see how many points are given away tonight. Well, it'll be three points given away.

How many go to the American, so many go to the fence. I do like that about this tournament, that each game has the same number of points in it. NHL regular season. No, we don't do that. This game's worth three. This one's two, whatever you want. The other thing about this tournament,

while it's really, really fun watching these great players, it also reminds you how much of slop we watch a year. Best on Best Hockey really makes you realize how much players in your favorite team are straight garbage. That was a Wednesday night last night. Yeah. Could have been the crack. Of the years, guys, we've watched a lot of Wednesday nights.

Tuesdays, Wednesdays. Wow. West Walls has played for the wild still. Hey, wow. right let's buckle up guys go they're in the n hl they're the best in the world wow what a great league what a great league who's the captain oh geez who else took them straight oh lombard long lombard took one earlier now poor west walls love west river flagg jeez sorry west you know why these guys are so fired up because mario was out there and they also started talking about the history of team canada they showed this card uh ret

in the world juniors that really fired up the boys. They were wondering what he was doing, wearing a goalie's number, the white cage. And Hachick's helmet. What are we doing, red? Oh, I designed the helmet,

white cage, black pants, goalie number. That is the least swaggy setup I've ever seen. I put together that ensemble. No, you need to blame someone who did. Who did put that together?

The black blades. Oh, maybe I could have got away from them. But they work. Cool. They make you look slow. And that didn't help. Didn't help. And was that before?

Canadian. Look at that. It's a Canadian stick. Because you're wearing half-visor and junior, but at the international tournament, it's still full cage. Gross. Is that how that was back then, I believe? I was playing pro.

18-year-old. Is that what it was? Well, it was high-fizers and junior. Yeah. Because I seem to think, anyway. Because remember when Sid, even when Sid played, he kind of had that half-viser, half-caged deal. I thought it was because he was underage.

Yeah, I don't know. rules have changed. Anyway, Redd, you inspired the fellow. You know what? F you, we won. I'm telling you. Good for you, Red. You've inspired a generation.

Hey, horrible setup. Kicked the shit out of the American 7-2 when they were finally going to be good. Take that. Jack. Jack. Jack, a dirty yank. Dick. That's why I wrote Dickhead down on the board.

That's right. For Jack. Definitely for Jack. Not one of us. Stupid Jack. Hey, Jack, your stupid team plays the Finns tonight. you this. Huh? Yeah. Yeah. I don't need to see that. Six Mountain. Are you watching this one or no? No. Yep. Oh, what did you just say?

Are you talking to me? You said, what? I'll throw it on. It'll be all. I have to run kids around and stuff, but if I'm around, I'll watch, I'll throw it on. It'll watch me probably. Yeah, good. And then if it gets good, you'll be able to say, hey, me, I'm going to go watch it for a watch. That's kind of, in fairness, kind of how last night that's perfect so if it's three three and the third yeah stop what you're doing get over there yeah if it's six one by all means let it watch you uh all right there's another one with a capes and skating but we get the idea it's Canada Finland tonight the one thing what the Americans that I feel like they're a tight group because I think they've been cutting each other's hair uh what's going on are they passing the shears around like what do you find out of

fox top left great hair Matthews what do we doing here. It looks like Jack Igold cut the right side of his head, but not the left. Chuckie, that's a, you can cut your hair at home. You should be critiquing anyone on looks or hair. I think I could play with the Americans with this mom. Let's, let's see where we're at here. Can I be on the American team? Yeah, poor bastards just came off the ice and their hair is not. I'd fit right in. Am I not running the second peep unit? Let's go. No, you're not. Come on. Sorry. Can I at least sharpen skate or something? I've seen, I've seen you play and I have been complimentary of your ability.

Not as good enough for that. Not quite there. You don't have the right passport. As for the American team. Yet. More hair? No. We talked about it with Frank.

They had some legends join them for dinner. It's a group that probably has the bit of weight of expectations, co-favorites in this team. I think we have one more American thing, Jack, or do we not? Yes, we do. All right. This is Frank Story up at daily faceoff.com. Mike Eruzioni, which is not a household name in Canada,

but absolutely is in the States part of that miracle on ice team. Didn't mince words. This is the best collection of American talent ever put on the ice, end quote. And yes, he was the captain of the team that scored the greatest school in American hockey history. It's up to this generation to deliver. You can see they've got Godreau's jersey there. And Frank can BS us and say he's not. Oh, he's not cheering.

Oh, don't cheer. I'm just wearing his stars and stripes on these. I can see you too, Jack. You traitor. dickhead. I got some D heads in my house, too, that play the... Oh, no. Both ways.

You can do that, eh? Yeah. It's a little on it. They like to... None of them were born there. They're all passported up. Trump, he's so persuasive. He's got away with words.

He does. Zane Perikovin season. Still rolling. Is he playing like Dave Cameron's team every night? Because he's been fired up of late. He needs four more goals to become the first defenseman ever in the OHL with multiple 30 goals seasons. That's not nothing, fellas. And four goals with the amount of runway left, I like his chances.

26 on the year. That one shot probably should have been saved last night, but I'm not here to pick away. It is weird. He kind of like slings the puck. Yeah. He's got a very unique release and he uses the defender's a screen, but it doesn't look like he's a bomb. Rett's already out on him.

Trade him now. all the stocks high. Fender loves him. Let's check in with the Eagles kids. I believe this is Frank's boy? Franks, Frank. You all right?

Dirk? Look, Carmen. Eagles! Look. And mom is right there. So proud of him. Yeah,

he's a good kid. You know, the teacher says he works hard. He loves, he loves spelling. Love spelling beast. Yeah. It's a good spelling.

We're really proud. Yeah. Might be the first grand kid to go to college. We're excited for him. Timmy has a bright future. That's right. Jack thought he was done with James Winston. He's so wrong.

I've got a montage of all these Super Bowl action from Louisiana. Oh, I thought he was in. Here we are. Let's get right into it. Once she said it 100 times this season. If we're going to do it big, we're going to do it big then. How big is this moment? It's the biggest.

It's nothing better than it. Right. Who do you find me some bierre? I'm a boss, post, post, fund it. I just learned. I've had a lot of bike today. I got it. Yeah, that's a buzz.

Bert. That's got quite a barrel. It's a lot of James. I know Jack's a huge fan. You are a fan because that's your approach to going out. Yeah, that's me. That is you right there. In the pirate hat, standing on the bar offering shots.

That is you. parochia in LA. Yeah. Yeah. This is, this was his week last week. He did, it was nonstop. Slide to the right. Slide to the right. Yeah, he's still going here. It's a boat. Now it's, uh, Yari's a pirate. Yeah, this is exhausting. Is this me? That's really annoying. Jesus. Oh, holy. It just hit me. That's not good at all. There's dance with strangers on the street. Oh, my God, this is me. No. Jack. Why do you hate me? he's lucky he didn't get punched in the face he's a lovable guy though

kind of this not as lovable as this next fella because he wrote a song about the Super Bowl and he's an Eagles fan it's a good one Kansas City is a dynasty no more because of what happened on Sunday Patrick Mahoney hasn't seen this before in the pocket he looks so uncomforte oh and every time you turn around

another sex, sex, sex, sex, sack. You ought to know by now. Now who needs a photo to a her bird of love? My Coupie is chilling at Disney. Whoa, the Eagles took felt to ass, and that's what it's all about. Good to run from the cheese,

but you just got blown out. Candy Andy. I think you blown out. Frank was saying 34-0 at one point. I forgot it was that bad. It was bad. It was excellent. Yeah.

Very good. And finally, we'll wrap our NFL segment with something for Jack. The Steelers apparently have inquired about trading. Former first overall pick Trevor Lawrence from the Jags. T.L. The alleged proposal included their first and second round picks. Jack, back to you. Yeah, this was a bit of surprise this morning.

I'm out on Lawrence. I think he's a cornball. A what? What is a cornball? He's just a corny guy. I don't like the hair. Like maybe if he shaved his head, I'd be in on him.

But that's his feet is about hair. Yeah, I mean, he's been fine. I feel like he's been way overhyped. Freckin Jacksonville. What are you going to do in Jacksonville? Yeah, I mean,

maybe he gets a change of. scenery, but I'm out on, I don't, a 20, 25 first and second. Let's just be bad in draft quarterback. He's on team tank. Look at this. Not with Tomlin. Not with Tomlin. Not with T.J. Watt.

And Aaron Rogers. The hell's wrong with you, Jack. Devante Adams. They're in a flamesy spot here. Not going to do it. Hickens. I don't know, Jack. Yeah, I don't know what to think about that guy.

I mean, he's clearly not as great as he was. supposed to be the best two years before his draft. NFL already. He was supposed to be the next Peyton. He's not been the next Peyton. No, not really. You're not Peyton. Pighton.

I think it was last year we showed his stats to like Daniel Jones's stats and they weren't that much different. Gross. You could probably get Daniel Jones. Danny Dimes. Danny Dimes. That'll help you tank. Yeah. There's a lot of bad quarterbacks out there that could probably be Steelers this year.

They're not going to bring back fields or Wilson, early. Doesn't look that way right now, no. Dusters. I just can't wait for the roller coaster next year. I mean, we're all getting excited about football, but just the jackometer alone is my... He's in a low point right now, though.

Yeah, it's not great. It's tough. I wonder what it'll be in that because it was kind of like a, like a graph. Yeah, yeah. And then there was the rocket ship. I wonder what the meter will look like next year. It would be like a, like a temperature,

like a thermometer, maybe goes up and down, gets icy and then red hot kind of thing. Oh, the graphics was. Yeah, yeah. I'm curious where he'll start because you know what's going to happen. They're going to sign some guys. That's true. Yeah.

Drafts. He's going to play well in a preseason game and he's going to be all in on him. Like, Kenny Pickett, Super Bowl champ. Here's my guess is that it, let's just say, it is a thermometer. It's either going to be like sweaty hot or ice cold. Yeah. It's either going to be like the surface of the sun or like my absolute zero. Yeah.

It's coming out of Jack's face on the graphic. It'll be great, Jack. It will be great. Two years ago was so awesome because the preseason, Kenny Pickett looked like such a start. And then the first game, I think they had one yard at half. That's the jack-home. But here we are today.

Super Bowl champion, Kenny Pickett. Hey, you like winners? Love them. That's why we like Kenny Pickett. And that's why we're like Tommy Wilden Jr. And his Cavalry FC in Mexico City. It's funny. Mexico.

haircut changed, totally changed away again. That's Charlie Trafford. Got it. Chuck. scored a nice goal. Go Chuck. C.T. Pumas.

hosting them at a stadium holds about 35 to 50,000 people. I would be a little intimidated if I was there, I'd be honest. I did go look at the odds on 365 because we've told it's a wide range of markets. Now they're underdogs. What do you think an underdog should be? Like, you're playing a Mexican side. It's in Mexico. You won in Canada.

They're going to host you. You're at altitude. It's their fans. Their bags of piss being thrown on your head. Plus 100. That would be even money. So not much of an underdog. plus 1,800.

Oh, no. Whoa. Pick them up. Yeah, that's, uh, wow. Oh, considerable underdogs. I know, no faith that. Even a draw. Hey.

They're going to get pumped. I did text Tommy because Rhett had some sage advice yesterday. I'm going to pull it up. I don't want to, um, Rett says, quote, just win. And I put it in all caps and sent it to Tommy. He said, I love his advice. He's so wise.

You can use that, Tom. So I think you've motivated the group. Just win. Just win. Score more goals in them. Aggregate BS. They also released their 2025 regular season schedule. The home opener Friday, April 18.

You can see the Red Games are at home. Three at home in June. Three at home in August. And most of the months, you get two. One in July when it's nice here. I think you've got a horse jumping season. Oh, they got the donkeys rolling through there. That's right.

People with Rolexes have to get on their fancy horses that ride jets. Get out of. That's, that's fine. Go get us and horses. Go get them, fellas. Go go. Have fun tonight. They don't put them on the pitch, do they?

That stays a soccer. They used to, not anymore. But it's just, yeah, a lot of events there. You can't park. No parking. No parking. Stop hitting them. What are you talking about?

Two one is the score on aggregate. The winner on aggregate after tonight's game will advance. If it's tied away goes is the tiger. Just go in. Just win. Just win. Just win. So wise.

So wise. Calvary FC. Just win. Trademark that. You could sell it to him. Yep. Ret's a big ski juggler. We saw him earlier in the year, ripping down some corduroy runs, juggling and skiing at the same time.

It was terrible the first time. People thought, you know what, Rhett, this is lame. Anyone can ski a groomed run. And if I practice long enough, I could probably even juggle on said groomed run. This person is either a billionaire with nothing. like inherited a gajillion dollars and has nothing better to do with this life? Yeah. Or the biggest loser we don't know.

It's the biggest loser we don't know. Let's put it to the ball. Lives in a band. It's back. Live and horsey catch. Yeah. Yeah. Listen to the guy from this camera.

Oh. How many takes did that take you, Jack? What pink. He's here to see against points? Yeah. He's not used to getting it. I wish you got it right in the head. Right there.

Doink. Woo. Yes. So we could finally go in. This loser finally caught it. Waiting for Epry to ski for three hours here. This one says cut rope.

I cut some rope this morning. That's what it's. Now you're going to do. Rock paper scissors, right? Here we are. Ready. One, two, three. Okay, you got two scissors, one rock.

So they're all kind of leaning. There's a mud pit below them. They got a bunch of ropes on them. And he's him to lose at rock people's scissors. You get one rope cuts. I don't know why they wear masks. I was going to say they're wearing masks for blindfolds. I don't think they know how many ropes they have.

They have the tension is just felt. Oh, no. Oh, he's cocked. He's cocked. It's pretty dumb, but I like it. Oh, he can't laugh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Live studio audience.

All right, last one. Let's send him. No, how much is left, Jack? It's got to be almost done. Yeah, there it is. Yeah. I'm going to call that mud pit rock paper scissors. You didn't end on a high note if that's where you're ending.

No, because you know what? I was going to end there. And then you sent me that video from Cairo yesterday because you had that thing in your back. Egypt getting your back chiropractor oh yeah this is your guy remember got it yeah looks bad it's it really finally got it you went in to get your shoulder worked on I don't know what he's doing back there that ain't real not it's not it's not real okay well Rhett's got a swing in his back here this for sure is real I was gonna say swing it's a lot of swinging at your place there's the shoveler

Get your kids involved. This is that big road trip he did in the sun. With your RVing. Yeah. It was. Yeah. Because he had that flat tire. And you'd seen that thing in the internet where they just light the thing and it

fills up. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, this is back, once you got back from the swing set there. Right. So there's the flat. tire yeah just hit his head oh billy up and running again saw this on the internet once it's a lot of oil

uh kind of thinking this is a bad idea buddy she's gonna work all right you're gonna get her back up and running tonight the jimmy was with you there yeah yeah oh geez i didn't work at all damn it all it did was break the fucking window and blow my tire apart. Weird. Kids don't do that at home. Don't do that. I thought for sure.

But I saw the pin report. It just built up the tire. It was great. Oh, dear. Sorry about that vacation. That would have been tough. It's a new RV. Do you sell RVs at Village Honda or no?

No. Probably just next time just load up with a Honda Odyssey or Ridgeline. Or get, I mean, tire changes to swap them in the spring in the fall. Let Honda do that for you. Silly to do it that way. 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid named winner of the North American car of the year for a record setting fourth time. Four. It's like you said.

Yeah, he's got a deal. Very close relationship with the barberer for sure. Are that good? I like the barbershop, actually. I never go, but once I'm in there. Damn, we're very close to one.

There's one nearby. There's lots of barbershops. I'm talking about it. Is that a swing and a miss for us? I go get my beard trim once a month. I feel like we should have a barbershop on the show. I tell myself once a week or month that you should dress better and take care of yourself and not just slob around.

In Buffalo, though, you're, it's like you may as well be wearing a tuxedo right now. Slob around. Slob up, slob up. I never do it, though. No. Like when I have to actually not wear a hat, I am pissed. I hate it. Pest.

I'm having breath that deeper. I thought it was pizza day. I didn't order pizza yesterday. I know you did. Somebody said we were having pizza today. It doesn't appear to be a pizza day. It's not pizza day. It can be.

I'm not waiting around for you, dead beats. He's leaving. Yeah, he's got to go. Jack's boring. Yeah, you're unreliable. If Ryan's not going to be here, then the rest of us, let's definitely not have pizza without them.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'll take the calf. You'll take the Tommy. Oh, 18.1. Are you taking the, uh, with the big unit, the big unit. So draw was plus 650. the Cavs win today's plus 1,800.

I might put 25 or 50 on the draw and on the win. Man, that makes sense. Now, see, the nice thing about Bet365 is do it responsibly. Right. Do whatever you're comfortable, have you. You're unit size. Make sure it's proper. That's right.

World's largest sports betting platform. Get the account open if you haven't got one. We keep saying it, I would guess by now you have. Come on. If you haven't. Love to have you join us. We just use the code nation. It's great.

Fun for you. Real fun for you. Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at Bet365. Here is what Pinders got today. I like the Americans in a route today. Maybe it doesn't happen. I'd love it not to happen in the sense that we'd get good hockey,

but if it does, at least don't get paid. Minus two and a half win by three retro. Plus 1.30. And if you're looking at goal scores, the Americans lead the way. Austin Matthews, Cal Connor, Jack Eichle, Jack Hughes, Jake Gensel, all smaller odds to score than Miko Ranton

and the most favorite Finn to score. He's playing? Because I know they were talking about him being injured and whatnot. Yeah, 365 is not messing around. Yeah. Nice. And that's just a, you know what that is? That's just a sniff, right, of what you can find there.

Oh, yeah, all kinds of different bets in there. Yeah. But I just thought flashing the goal scores. Always gets you thinking about the players. Sure does. We really like to, Brayden Point yesterday. I said. Any time and first, I had Reinhardt that did not materialize.

Yeah, Ryan, too, I like to. Don't overthink it stupid. It was McDavid. Where is it? McKinnon. McKinnon. McKinnan. From.

Marner. Crosby. Mm-hmm. Man, that save on Theodore or on Taves was incredible. Do we really appreciate what we saw from Sid yesterday? It wasn't just that, like, he made the playoffs with the Penguins and had a great game. It was a great performance. he was on the ice with some of the best in the world and still

best player controlled it all he's the best player on this and he's got two MVP well we'll see i don't know he's the drive like it's there i don't know if he can he can access it or not drive some real pain to the ass apparently yeah trapped crazy um also another thing we got to do jack where's the soundboard Come on, Jack. Trying to handle some shows. Where's my deal? Really?

Oh, we're going to be here all day and open. Oh, my gosh. That's what. Hey, can't see. Did you ever ask that question? No. Don't need to. Got next week.

And then Monday is a holiday. I believe it's summer. kind of, what is it, Governor's Day? Hammered Teacher Day. Got it? Going on strike. I think, well,

do what you want, teachers. Yeah, somebody's saying, we just heard the Super Chat button five times. They're hearing it. It's going through the, we're not here. But not through the board, Jack. Jack?

We don't want that. That means there could be a hot mic moment and we wouldn't even know it. And sometimes, Binder. Slanders people. We heard a click. There's a big. Big click, Jack.

Big, big click. Like when I stood up? Yes. You stood up and you took the spark. Flap top. I wonder if it jimmied the... You son of a guy. Do we care now?

Because they heard the super chat. Yeah, I guess so. Start the super chat. They told you. Super chat. During the course of the show, if you're in the YouTube's, you can put a little comment in there.

And if you do accompany that comment with a cash donation, we send the money to the U-Sanors of Calgary. And then we say, you know what? We're going to show that on the show that on the show that. show for you. Yeah, we are. It's like you're one of the, you're a co-host. You're a co-host, Frank Sarrevelli. You're a content creator. One of us.

So now that the laptops over there, you can't access the drive, right? You can't see the drive. Oh, no, I have your photo. You're all right? I don't know. I'm waiting to see what the details are. I don't really get it. Anyway, uh, super chat. Let's, uh, get to the super chat. Do the super chat.

Do the super chat. Do the super chat. Yeah. We did John. We did that one. There is there. Yeah, did that one. There's a Lindy. Thanks, Lindy. 279. Lindy had an okay game last night. Probably pressed click before the comment went in.

And it was like, oh, darn it. Well, I'll put the comment in now, but then we don't read it because it's not right there. Jesus, tough on Linda. Darn. Gentle. 699, thank you. Three on three equals a back ice violation should be put in place. saying we're referencing three and over and back as we're talking about once you cross the red line you can't

move the puck back or you give up possession thoughts yep if you're going to the 10 minute maybe i don't think though it's a problem in the five minute one i know that i think even if you just gain the blue line you should you do blue yeah because it's even kind of a when yeah the red line's too far yeah they have possession as soon as somebody takes it out i think the whole crowd just gain the blue line you shouldn't be able to carry it out on your own you can't carry it out so then if you're hooped there's intense pressure. Okay, well, dump it. Now we get a turnover,

which we like. That's when we get chances in three out three. There's turnovers, not when it's just possession, possession, possession, skate, skate, skate, skate, reload, reload, reload, reload, regroup, regroup, change, reload. So, hey, we'll,

we'll think about it. Thanks, gentle. Those are our thoughts that we're going to give it some more thoughts. That'll boy, gentle. Down the line. Our thoughts, $10. I love all caps.

Love four nations. Was amazing. experience to watch. Plus, we need to cherish Sidney Corsobe. Corsobe. Courseau B.C.C. Canada moments. Before they're gone. Let's get hyped. Ca, car, car, Canada. And then mountains. Mountains.

assume because we know they're hearing it's it's our board it would be i think you sparked to the bull. You spark the board. Can we get you a power cord so you don't have to get up? Yeah, probably yeah. I thought Rhett was,

Hey, Oh, Hey, oh, Jeremy, which was very funny. Hilarious. Over and over and over. Over again.

I'll be honest. I don't have, I don't really feel any dislike towards the Americans as far as this game on. I will want Canada to win on Saturday,
