Well, hey, look at us. Back under one roof. Feels good, doesn't it? Oh, so good. Yeah. St. Paddy's Day week. It is. What a party.

Kind of wait. Yeah, we were kind of talking about that before we got started here. The limiting of St. Patty's Day outing is now something we have to take into account. Limiting. At our advanced age. Right. It's also a Tuesday, which is no blenno. They got to do better.

with that. I don't know how. It's always on the same day, too. 17th. Weird. Tuesday? Tuesday isn't always the 17th. The 17th is always Penn Patrick's Day, but it, I'm not sure. We'll look into it, everyone. Welcome to the show, a presentation of Bet365,

official gaming partner of Barn, Burner. If you haven't got the app already, I suggest you do that. You get a little profile, get your account set up, use the code nation when you sign up, and then bet responsibly. And the super chat is up and running. Money raised today.

We'll go to the new centers of Calgary. Just right on over. That's how that's been going to go. Just right on over here. In the McLeod Law LLP studios, yeah, because we were not all under the same roof last time around on Friday. Well, we were concerned with our safety.

Yeah. Lives were in danger. Yeah. Any legal needs on the weekend? Oh, there was lots that came up, actually. Still burning down Peter Klein, his phone? McLeoddashlaw.com is, you know. Oh, I know it.

You need. Oh, I know it. Yeah. I, uh, I actually roofied one of them at that flames game. We were at a couple of weeks ago. Oh, good. Yeah. What am I see you? I grabbed, just grabbed a whole bunch of business cards out of their pocket.

So I've just been handing those suckers out. Yeah, if you need any help. Anybody would have just given you those fit ass. You don't have to roofie the lawyer. Really? Oh, dear. Oh, well. Three.

Beg for forgiveness better than that. That is, I am a big believer that flies. Yeah. cloud dash law.com. Are you given to people that your instincts are just telling you? You're like, I can see through your BS. You're going to read this. Yeah.

How is sweatpants land? I just like, get a bit of that. I like letting them know, letting them think that I know what I'm talking about or know what I'm doing. It's okay. Just case you. Fresh right. Friend of a friend.

It was good in that, uh, did not even hit the outskirts. Nice. Very much located in that Niskew. Okay. Airport. area. Is that that fancy rink that's supposed to be unbelievable?

We were never there. No. We were at the Willhawk beef jerky arena. I love beef jerky. What? There's a beef jerky arena? It's one of the

ice surfaces in like the complex. Okay. But that's, we played at the Wilhawk beef jerky. And actually one of the other dads, he's like, hey, just to give you heads up. The jerky place is only open till news. today. Get in there. This was on Saturday.

See, that's good team camaraderie there. Good to know. Pulling the rope to kick the kid out of the, yeah, grab your bag, hurry up. Go. Go get you good, have fun or whatever. Good luck. Yeah, got B-line. Guy, it's like, well, I think it's, they got some beef jerky, they got pepperonies and sausages. I was like, I don't know,

what do you get here? Guy in front of me. Let's say, I don't want to typecast or have a profile. You know, I hate that. Especially up there. That's not sure. Yeah. The man in front of me, I was going, I just kind of got the vibe. Being here before knows what he's doing.

Okay. That's good. Right? Good guy to be behind. Yeah. So he walked in and said, you know, of two of the $50 bags. Wow. I didn't really know.

So they grabbed two of these clear plastic things. It's like, but everything figured, well, who am I to? This guy's an expert. Who am I to divert from? I don't want to rock the boat. It's like at the soup. Hello, I'll have two of the $50 bags.

There's a shuffle on down. Amazing. So yeah, and Will Hawk beef jerky, free plug? Hock toa. Pretty friggin' good stuff. Related to the Hawk Tua?

Not the Hock Tua. Hoc Tua jerky is very different. Yeah, that's, you don't want that in your mouth. What a they ask you for that. Yeah. But I had the, the pepperonies.

The kid was very excited. I sent him the picture. I just took a photo from outside. Edith, just beef jerky. Oh, yeah. So in the 50-pounder, what are we talking about? Is it a clear plastic? I know, but like, so it's a mixed?

They only have the one kind. Okay. You don't get. You're not, you're not, Dill Pickle and salmonella. They're my, the salmonella I steered away from. Yeah, it was just, this is the beep. My guess is maybe they try and have some of them that are in a nice, shape form.

This was just kind of a bag full of some that were just, hey, I'm not a frou-frou jerky eater. No. You just put that in my yipper. This is the shape of the meat. How fancy are you? Very good. Yeah, it's very good.

It's very good. Like Jack and his family, like, as you can see right behind. Yeah. Still wrong. Still wrong. Oh, there you. And she's your other hand and that'll put it.

Putting two hands over the same shoulder. I know what you're getting at. Because they brought some peanuts for us. Yeah. I think they're fond of you guys. I don't know why. If you were, do you? Oh, shit.

No. Jerky? I'll bring some stuff in. How much did the kid get? Because a couple days later. Well, we had to. Now, can you over serve yourself on jerky? I've heard instances where maybe,

perhaps, the youngster, and it's usually a young kid, has got into the 50-pound bag. or such and really done some damage. I would assume. Suffered immensely. There'd be some sodium intake issues at some point for sure. I'll watch his water drinking habits here the next little bit.

But the jerky was good, all that sort of thing. La Duke was the Duke. It's not Edmonton. It's not Edmonton. Some other airports there, though, did you see Mark Raider? I did not see Mark Rader, no. Too bad. Who else would be?

Like, who else is that? Duke. Because he said, oh, well, St. Albert Sherwood Park, Scrooose Grove, you know, some people. I don't really know. I don't really in my orbit from, uh, you're a red deer south kind of guy. That's right.

That's where my cutoff line is. It's almost where my cutoff line was on Thursday. Some bad drivers out there. Bad roads. Bad roads, bad drivers. Yeah. But we made it. How was everybody else's weekend?

Piques of valleys, Dean. Yeah. Picks of valleys. Are you still? Did some birthday party? Yeah, you still. Week left. Got the overhang going or?

Yeah. Yeah. Well, I did it Friday. And then Saturday got stressful at a hockey game. And then Mike Grimes started buying me pills spurs. And all of a sudden. Grimy. All right.

Back at her. Ended up in the drop. Oh, wow. That can happen. I didn't know that. It's like four blocks. Yeah, I was going to say, listen. I didn't think about calling you.

I know. And I'm kind of glad you didn't because I actually slept a bit. Some of the nights. That was good. Still solo. Yeah. Because you're, uh, Red Solo?

No, not a ton. The wife's in some country that most people don't know a continent's on. It was Marrakesh. That's the city. Oh, she traveled to the Middle East. No, the Middle East,

the other side of Africa. This would be the, the Northwest part of Africa. It blows Spain. Morocco. Morocco sounds like a very kind of a Jack Hatterspoth. Jack,

kind of a foot daddy kind of. I feel like the the women and just everything. There's a real kind of sex of sex appeal. Yeah, Jack likes the covered shoulders. That's a big thing there.

You can't have your shoulders exposed. How was your weekend, Jack? Pretty tame. I really asked my back. What? I don't know what. I got a guy. You got a back guy?

I got a guy. I got a guy. Curling? Back daddy? I don't know what. It must have been something in the gym. I know what it was. I'm a single guy.

Backseat isn't the place for that nonsense, Jack. You're too old for that now. Lower back and it's really driving me nuts. Like I could not sleep last night. I was up at like four in the morning. I just said F it. I went to the gym. I just stretched.

Had a sauna. So you're exhausted. So I'm... You're how old? 20. 48. Every week we come in here. I feel like on Monday's,

He's aging at double time, I think. I feel like we have some direct connection to all of that. That's why I'm so curious why his family seems to shower us with Alabama peanuts. They're just so happy he's gone. I feel like we're letting you down, guys. You're giving us all these peanuts. One move to. Jack still can't read.

One move to like the southern U.S. The other ones, you know, different props. Hanging out with handsome Dan. I'm sure you'll be fine. Jack, sure he'll be fine. Well, get your helmets on. It's game day. The Calgary Flames still road tripping.

They're still playing. Still road tripping. I thought once the deadline hit, right to the lottery, they get a buyer. Oh, they got to play these games. Gary is a stickler. GM meetings after the trade deadline. I wouldn't mind attending the GM meetings or the location where the GM meetings take place.

You'd like to go there, but then steer clear of the hotel and the, They know how we went to Buffalo Mountain Lodge for the Olympics? We need to go to the same place in Florida for the Board of Governors' News and just not fair. You know what? There's a great music festival on in Fort Lauderdale, the Tortuga. The Tortuga. Right on the beach. Always been a fan of the Tortuga.

Everyone loves the Tortuga. A lot of Tortuga. Jack, yeah. It's been a while since. Of course, I'm too good. Does that dovetail right into Bartenders Week on the kids? Well, we can make it have. That's May long weekend.

We can make it out a bet. Okay. Where is, where are the, is it always Boca Ritonaut? home like where are these I thought it was in West Palm yeah there's many fancy places that they found it for you it's nice Dean

if it's the place where Mr. Jovanoski got married oh yeah we don't fit it's kind of a Moroccoish kind of right curious what they'd be discussing at the old board of government well they're gonna I know I'll tell you what to discuss

oh right well let's go wound up he ain't gonna stand for this the committee of discipline bullshit This is a fallacy and a farce and I don't like it. Jeez, those are strong words. Fallacy and farce. Five words. Big F words there.

Sharp's. They're going to announce that Calgary and Evanton are getting the World Cup of hockey in 28th. That's what I hear. Oh, great. So we've got to partner up with those dusters. Yeah, I know. It'd be better for it was not that.

But you are going to get the World Cup of hockey and you get the newer rig. So hopefully they can have Belarus against the media members? Can we get in? We're very, very journalistic. so I imagine that won't be a problem at all. And the league loves us. File the paperwork now? If they know us at all, they'd be fine with it

because if they gave three passes, they know maybe one would show up to a game ever. Yeah, and by the second period, that guy's in essence anyway. Yeah, seats empty. Yeah, seats empty for sure. We'll see how that plays out. I would assume, and I might be completely wrong, new building Calgary, Betone was just here,

like gold medal game, Calgary. That makes sense. Right. And again, like they're not, this isn't volunteer work. New buildings create more revenue. You have more ways to pull the money out of the wallets of the peoples that walk in.

And is there a, well, as long as we're still. A cash commitment to becoming a, a bid city and. I think the province has earmarked something around 15 million bucks. I thought the federalis even said they're going to throw some money.

Well, what's his name there? I don't say. That'd be great. Guy the traveler. Well, he cares about Alberta. He's always been a big Westerner. Yeah. Ford of

you saw you what wearing that Oilers jersey I'm worried about that final game now there's a lot of people that care

about Alberta running around in that Luduke area a lot of Alberta Alberta Alberta yeah a lot of very Alberta Alberta first

yeah yeah a lot of it going on it's awesome by the dog park yesterday getting some things signed they're trying I guess

I was like you running from air but you didn't go get the signatures yeah I need five on it's a lot gosh it's a lot of

for you for you Farcas yeah look out you phony Boney Barrow. So the flames are playing, I get, you know, before we get me further, I want to do this. Now it's, uh, so St.

Patty's Day. That's coming up tomorrow. I think tomorrow. Right. Palm Beach, by the way. Is it Tuesday tomorrow? Tomorrow's Tuesday. Tuesday, March 17th tomorrow. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's my sister's birthday. It's always on the 17th. Hey, no, happy birthday. Happy birthday. Yeah, happy and birthday. You really celebrated that a few years ago, didn't you? I did. You love her so much.

Yeah, love her so much. Your sister's, born on St. Patty's Day? Jack, that's what I just said. Jack, could you listen to the show you're producing it? That's like a bad as you're back. God, that's got to be some lucky. God, damn it.

Lucky in life. That makes today the 16th. Yeah. Good math, Dean. March 16th. Okay. 316. As we pay homage to the Texas

Rattlesnake himself. Thank you for this. Stone Cold Steve Austin. Now you could see videos of him doing stunners or putting people through tables. This is post career Steve Austin. He has a lot of money. He has a cat named Poncho.

He's very active on social media. This was him like you getting into the, you know, I want to take care of my body. I've got an infrared son of this. This was his first taste of a cold plunge. Ah ha ha. God damn it. Whoa.

Oh. Shit. Ah. Oh, that's the... God damn it. Did you hit the end of care of there? Hey, what's up, God damn it. Hey, what's up everybody?

It's Steve coming to the Broken Skull Ranch. I got this... Renew Therapy. Hey, what's up, everybody is Steve, coming to the Broken School Run. Hey, what's up, everybody is Steve coming to the Broken School Ranch. About to do my first cold plunge and Renew Therapy. My shop says 43 degrees right now, so I'm sure the water is sub 50. I was going to start off at 50.

It's going to be a little bit colder than that. And we're going three minutes here. Once you get on to 12 and five, four, three, two. Then we go, ha ha, ha, ha, son of a bitch. Whoa. Oh, Steve. I'm going to revisit this motherfucker. So there you go.

One of the toughest SOBs out there. He'd stomp a mud hole, Jack, if you're not careful, taking the cold pledge. Not as tough as red. God, he was good. To 316, and those who celebrate today. I don't follow it as much. To me, that was the golden era. It was pretty good.

They called it the attitude era. That's right, yeah. You had DX telling you to suck it. you had the Rock. Sloan do that or someone at the Dallas Stars Cup parade. Oh yeah, I think, yeah, it was big.

Like it's Anyway. Anyway, kids were doing it in school and getting kicked out. That's right, yeah. Telling their teacher to suck it. Right. The Rock wanted you to smell what he was cooking. Austin was stomping mud holes.

It doesn't matter what you. It was really good. It was a hell of a time, retro. It was a hell of a time. Undertaker was probably still one in all those Uh, Yeah, he was on,

it was still kicking him. He was on his, uh, WrestleMania streak. Yeah. Hogan came back near the end of it. Like then the NW and all that, because that was kind of,

I'd be like to get into it. NW. was good stuff. Holy. That was kind of the end. That's when the attitude era, they took over. It was like,

oh, so these guys in WCW are just old and making all the money and not very good. Oh. Then BX said he'd fight Andre the giant. I saw that. Really? Yeah. He's very brave.

I would not fight Andre the Giant. I would say sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Sadeen, but no, I'm not standing up for you. That's Andre the Giant there. It's a big massive man. What's wrong, Dean? Button's not working? No, that's working. Beer's a day.

Barn burner. We do have breaking news this morning. There it is. World Cup of hockey. What's that? 2028. We've got to wait for it, though, Retro. That's good, though. We're here. I hope we're here, Dean.

Because, Zach, you know why? We've got to wait. That rings don't wait. The new home of entertainment in Calgary, Scotia Place, and the state-of-the-art Rogers Place in Edmonton, both in Alberta, Canada, along with the world-class O-2 Arena in Prague, Czechia. Prague!

We'll host the next edition of the Best-on-Best. Well, we have to go to Prague if the World Cup's there. I wouldn't mind going to Prague. Yeah, let's go. We're excited for Calgary, but when's the next time international hockey is going to be in Prague? Well, we have to follow this. This is our business.

Get a hold of the Dom. He'll get us a suite. Calgary and Edmonton will jointly serve as hosts representing the province of Alberta. Calgary and Prague will each host seven games, six round robin, one elimination game, while two semi-final games

and the championship game will be held in Edmont. Go fuck your hat. What? I'm out. You got none of my support. I'll go to Prague. screw this thing in Alberta. Shouldn't have swore.

Edmondson disgusts me. I don't care if I, no. Uh-uh. Was it an F-bomb or just a swear? No, I, it was a hard one. Are you, so that dump up in Edmonton's is going to be nicer event-centered

to the host than ours? You're saying they're going to play the final of the Hippo tank when you got a brand new, shiny, it won't be better than the other race. So you're showing off the city of Edmonton over the city of Calgary for your final. finals. Great thinking, Gary.

Brilliant. I told you this was no good. This is going to affect our media accreditation. I don't care. I'm not going to, I'm not watching it. It's a shitty event anyway, and I'm out. So don't watch. You heard of here first, folks. Boring. It's interesting.

Obviously, I did not expect it to be that. I thought it would be the other way around myself as well. I thought it would be the other way around. And you know what? Folks in Calgary should be pissed right off. shot at you're right there. I would be livid. You really need that 50-50?

Like, what's the draw? I'm missing this year. Yeah, I'm trying to find anything further. There's not really any, just the way it's... It's going to be 15 years newer than the other one? Like, what are we talking about here? 10? Yeah, I mean, it's a couple years away. The ring is still relatively new.

I don't know. I just thought that would be the... That's your signature crown jewel event. You want to put it in the nice rink. If I was caught in the flames, I would actually phone and say, F off. Have it all. Known as Canada's Festival City and ranked Canada's number one sports city by Burson's 2025 Global Sports Cities Report. Bursons.

Edmonton's proven track record for hosting large-scale events include the Stanley Cup Final, the first ever Heritage Classic outdoor game in 2003, the 2023 NHL Heritage Classic, the double IHF world or the IHF world juniors, the FIFA women's world cup, the Juno's and more. Juno's. That's a huge Venn diagram overlap. I guess I'm way off on it's a dump.

I just hope nobody gets too stabby up there when I get all these celebrities from the World Cup. I will say it would be nice for the home team to win a big game in that rink with new hardware on the line. So hopefully the Canadians can do that in 28. but I'd rather have with you. I'm out. You lost,

McGare. Sorry. Poor care. The flames will be mad that we're not supportive of. If I was the flames, I'd be like, no. So we're second fiddle.

That's what they're telling you, folks. I want to go to Prague still. Yeah, I was fine with Frog. Might be awkward, though, when McDavid comes back as Canada's team captain to play in front of his old fan base. You know?

How are Euler fans? Are they going to welcome them back and their hearts is still be broke. They all have a big cry and they share them when they get back. There's all kinds of history to learn from here. Well, I, every good oiler ever left. It's a good learning experience for us today. Every day you learn something. I can't wait to get up to the festival city because that place is calling my name. I mean, from the roof. I need to find out more about Burson's 2025 Festival City report. What's Burson's first name and what neighborhood in Edmonton does he live in?

you know this is probably a good point in there i mean people around the world rave about clondike days and i feel like the stampede probably yes just it's a good point small little i've been waiting jack i figured at some point we turn the corner to that uh you know what they're crazy passionate drinks like no not yet can't okay okay nope i thought i thought maybe it was the clondike days now it can even say clondike it's k days now i don't even know I don't know. Klondike days. It's a freaking ice and brain days.

I see what I want. Sick of people telling me what I can. Well, you're on YouTube. And you're a renegade. Yeah. That is true. You can't say Klondike? I don't know.

It's a bar for. Isn't that ice cream? Yes. They're delicious, by the way. What would you do? What would you do for Klondon? I do remember that. I love him so much.

It's adorable. Oh, what do you mean you can't say that? What happened? I don't know. They changed. it. It didn't change. Our own show dog here is.

Like, ketamine? Like, is that what KDA stands for? I would not recommend doing that. Conductase. Don't do ketamine. It's possible I could be. Although, I've seen some shit in the ice district. Yeah, I wonder about ketamine. I can't wait to get more video of the losers in Edmonton

after around a championship game. That'll be wicked. It was fighting each other at the end of the win or lose. Yeah. Well, the festival city, didn't they brawl each other with all their orders, Jersey's own? they were fighting each other. That's correct.

Okay, good. It's a stabby. Great news. Dean, anything else for us today? Jack, let's get a drink. From 62 to 05, Klondike days. Edmonton's role in the Klondike gold rush. From 06 to 12, renamed Capital X,

reflecting the capital city theme, which resulted in a 15% drop in attendance. Ah, the festival city. And then 2013 to present K days after community consultation, K days was selected from a list of options. So good. How much did the losers that came up with that marketing get paid? Like millions of those. We're not sure.

What about K days or? They pulled the people right. It just, just edged out sweatpants days, which is a shame. Wear what you want days. Bajama fans and dress shoes days. Among the other 2,000 submissions from which K days was selected, Ed Fest. And River City Festival. Hold on.

I only have so many tourism dollars. Ed Fest would be tremendous. It would be better because it's actually kind of funny. It is. You could maybe roll with you. You can have a mascot, Ed. Some dude and cut off sweatpants from the summer. It's beautiful.

Some jorts. Yes. Some clam diggers. They're like, oh, this one's up to the cap. Oh, Ed. You're back part of it, eh? Hey, look, who's on for my own? Yeah.

Anyway, great news. Can't wait to go watch the eighth and ninth best hockey countries play World Cup hockey. That Kazakhstan-Belarus rivalry is really heating up. It's truck month. GMC, truck month.

That means it's your opportunity to get into a 2026 GMC Sierra 500 pro graphite crew cab at 0% financing for 72 months. Two inch factory lift, off-road suspension, powerful 5.3 liter B8 engine and a commanding presence that demands attention. Hurry in and see the Sierra 1500 pro graphite crew cab in person and take advantage before truck month comes to an end. And then he's 16th. So there you go.

They're going here. GMC truck month, the pro-graphite crew cab. I don't know. Maybe I should have held off in that news. I feel like there's... It's killed the mood. The tone of the mood of the show has taken in. I think it's actually helped because I was very low energy and I'm getting a good kick

out of it. I was really kind of searching for something else that would might sparky in that press release, but they're really trying to upsell it. Oh, which is all. Hey. And we're probably a little... Rats pisses me off. We've got a brand new rink and we're not allowed to host and you're going to go to

Edmonton. In my opinion, it's very clear. I think Calgary is a nice of city. I don't live in Edmonton. I've got no want to live in Edmonton. I don't give a shit about it. I'm a Calgary and very happy to be. A proud one.

Don't try to tell me that it's a great city in Edmonton. I lived in Saskatoon. They're the same city. There are six round robin games and one elimination game. So there are seven to the three. I would take the three all day, every day. Just for the argument's sake, like the Olympic tournament, you would have had like,

France and Italy. France, Italy. Like, the limit. But this is, this is an eight team tournament. Yeah. This is the World Cup of hockey. Oh, I'm aware what they're going to do here. So who's seventh and eighth place?

It would be Slovakia and they're all going to have to fight for eight. That's what you're getting. Yeah. You'll get some Canada and that's great, but. I think it's actually a D move on the NHL's part. Pick a city. You know what it is? It's the damn government, Brett.

Where's their head offices? Well, you know, oh, for sure it is. all the union we should start a union for podcasts I was thinking about that I don't know you seem like a big union head yeah let's go I think I don't like being told

to tell me what to do we should start a union there is no international competition in sports that matches the passion skill and excitement of hockey's best on best coming together to represent their countries is from Gary Penn how about Gary? We at the National Hockey League and our partners

at the National Hockey League Players Association can't wait to bring the World Cup of Hockey 28 to three spectacular venues in three cities that shine when staging big events. We know Calgary, Edmonton, and Prague will serve as fantastic hosts for hockey fans from all over the globe,

and that the greatest hockey players in the world will compete on a level that will make this event truly memorable. I think the tournament is going to be great. I'm pissed at the funnels and the semis are in Edmonton. I don't even understand how there's seven and one elimination game here and they're playing in Prague, but the big games are in Edmonton. So there's going to be two pools.

You'll have your Calgary pool and your Prague pool. There's only eight effing teams. Right. So you'll send the final four up to Edmonton, two from Calgary. I get it. But so how are we getting seven games? It's not far. You probably could have done semis here. What I'd like them to do, because I'm a nerd on this stuff,

and I love talking about the stuff like the Olympics ended, and I was already talking about stupid World Cup format because I'm a loser. But why would you not have one host city? Thank you. And then the whole hockey world travels there. because now you're going to have guys that are like, oh, I'm playing on a Tuesday in L.A.

And then I've got to fly over to Prague. Oh, and we won. Now I've got to fly all the way back over to sweatpants nation. Like, that's a lot of, oh, and then we pick up after the World Cup break

and we're in Miami. Like, Jack, can we get Gary? Well, no. So I went down there. They would ask a question. It's a good thing that press conference is this.

We see. He'd be called out onto the carpet. That's what happened there. well and we're we're usually very optimistic so it's odd to find us poo-pooing anything but we wouldn't do that especially not to much hey are you having the monday eating reps still somewhat hung over and haven't eaten jack's back is killing them i'm so a parenting so is the idea just to spread it around and like spread yeah i don't know so they they want to grow international hockey and they're not growing international hockey in

calgary and bidson right but what i was going to follow up with that's very important is they're getting a big check from the government to bring it here. I assure you, if if the state of Nevada wanted to throw 15 million at the league, we wouldn't be having this press conference today. So I have the question. So some of my tax dollars are paying to have some rich fucking NHOers going to play hockey here. And you get in Edmonton. Awesome.

Thanks. Government. Farkas. Fricking Nenshi. Nitch. I feel like Nenchi still. Menshi is a better. I shouldn't be mad, I guess.

What difference does it make? I'm not going to affect my life, probably. Who's going to be alive at that point anyway? Like, maybe John? Not me, God. We all might be American, so there's only one team by that point. That's going to be a boring-ass tournament if that happens. It'll be a solid squad.

That'll be a solid squad. 51 states of America beat Sweden 12-1. Fellas. Yep. This is a big game for the Detroit at Red Wings tonight. it now? It is. It actually really is. The Detroit Red Wings have fallen out of a playoff spot in their own division. They hold the final wild card tied for it in the Eastern conference. 80 points, one ahead of the Columbus Blue Jackets. But if you want a points

percentage that sum of a gun, I like to. It's my passion. Not ideal. Look at the 598 to 597 red. Game in hand for Lumbus, one point back. big big game for Detroit. And you know what Detroit's been doing lately? It's good. Not winning. Overtime loss, loss, loss, win, loss, overtime loss. I don't know.

It's one win in the last six if you need them. I don't dislike Detroit, but I don't need to see them in there. I would like to see that they've ever had it in that building. It's been a long time. I understand. But Buffalo's already got all my feels there. And I don't feel like Detroit's going to come in and be like, wait until you see this. And I don't know.

Like, we've talked to, who's on that squad that gets you excited? I was going to say, of the teams that today are in a playoff spot, take away points percentage, just because at a quick glance, only Seattle has scored fewer goals than have Detroit. Detroit to 21st in league scoring, yeah. I would rather see Columbus or Ottawa. I would actually like to see Columbus and Ottawa take the last two wildcard spots because I don't have any affinity for Boston.

I think they're boring. Ottawa to me is exciting. because I feel like they're a bunch of young guys. They're Canadian. Big Canadian. Can't wait. Poor Canada. I like...

Especially loves Ottawa. Yeah. Stutzel. Who else? Sanderson? That's German and American. Yeah. Normie Bassison's kid?

Yeah. That's inside a good year. And Columbus? They need to win, too. Goals for against Detroit minus six. The only team on the minus side in the east. Get him out of that. I'm sorry, Stevie Y.

Next year's year. What about Todd McClellan? He deserves. nice things. It's a nice little turn around there. Good job. It does feel in a way because it's so much. You know what else? Screw Jack. Get Pittsburgh out of there. They're back today.

They're back today. Dan the man. What? Skating today. Crosby's back today? Well, he had a different skate a week ago, but it wasn't I'm going to skate. I read this morning Malkin Crosby on the ice two day. Oh, Mark and Malcon was suspended. Are we no contact for Sid or contact jersey? Because I know Malcon's

suspension is on it now. Okay, I'll figure it. Yeah, do some digging. They got six or ten points without Malcon. That's quite impressive. It is quite press. Sorry. Ben Kendall. Yeah, the man.

Hey. Danny boy. He gets some Dan the man futures. I don't mind them making it. So anyway, that's the Detroit Red Wings story. Well, they'll come out swinging then.

They need a win. They're not getting a bunch of them. They should be going out swinging the last two weeks. So that's the thing that makes, there's a lot of nervous Nellys. I know the working man's a big Detroit fan. And he's just completely lost faith in this group. Yeah,

that's hard. Well, we can give them a win. We can have another solid effort and a, For the law of Athole tank continues. They're really looking, they figured this thing out.

At some point, they're just going to be out of gas, right? Like I'm talking about the flames or it's like, you've now been on the road for a week and. Yeah. Good Lord. Enough's enough.

Right? It looked like that early on Long Island when they were down three nothing after 20 minutes. Then they did the thing where they don't give up and keep working hard and play with great structure and make it close. And you're like, proud of the effort. Where to go, fellas? Where to go?

Good on you. Yeah. I'm seeing something to the tune of five wins in their last 16 for Detroit. I'm saying, coming out firing, that's what they should have been doing in the last two weeks. Not ideal, boy. Well, that's probably, like 50. Stevie didn't make any good trades. Falk again.

That's it. I can pay the right side. Yeah. Could use that parakeo. Were they in? Or it was Myers. That's the story. It was Tyler Myers.

Yeah. of both D-Men that had, did not wait to go to Atlantic teams. Meanwhile, the flames. A lot of bodies, Dean. Got a lot of guys. They've, uh, not a lot of wins. It's all kind of going according to plan. Yeah.

I guess our plan. Ethical tank, yeah. It's everyone's plan now. It is. Yeah. We've moved from Rebiggle to rebuild. I think we're all there. That's good.

I spilled them a re-biggle shirt this week. Oh, no. Was it a Caesar? because if we had them in red, that wouldn't be a problem. If only we had them in red. I didn't know if we could seize it. Boy, you look at that little run, kind of at the end, you know, beat the Oilers,

beat the sharks twice. Come on, fellas, beat the hurricanes. Why just beat the Oilers three or four this year? Yeah. What are we talking? I thought that was the flames. It's the host of the World Cup. The winds of few and far between, but even there,

come on, Evanston, you've got to be of sharks. Pumping your tires all season long. You'd look no good against the flame. for the most part. Anyway, it's the final of the five-game road trip that has been a one-and-three trip. The losses in Washington against the Rangers and then the Islanders on the weekend.

They beat Detroit, as Markstrom looked. Horrendous. They beat New Jersey. Is that what I said or no? You said Detroit. Sorry. New Jersey. And Markstrom did look horrendous.

New Jersey. Oh, my God. They could have cared less. It looked like a good tender that was a pouty. I'm very happy for John Beecher. That first goal has no business. is the school again. That's not NHO goal turning, right. Put the puck to the net. Love it. Good work, Johnny. Proud of you. Jacob? If you were Tommy Fitzgerald, Shorty,

you'd be some pissed off watching this guy for this guy. Well, I wonder about out there. I've seen the Sopranos. Markstrom got some shit going on. Is he, uh, it's got a land waste management property? It's like you had, uh, what did you have the overrunter at in this game? Oh, geez, I better list some goals in here. Hang on. I got an important question here. You mentioned New Jersey and all that. Jack, have you seen Sopranos? No, I haven't. Oh. I watched it a million times.

Is that top of the queue? My kid is in it right now. Really? How much is he enjoying it? Oh, you know what? He got most of the way through it, halfway three quarters through, and then, I don't know. So he's like, I got it. I'm doing it. So he went right back to the start. I did it. I watched it the first time I got quarantined. DVDs? Yeah. I started Mobland because I finished Landman. man. Well, this is...

Lob man, lamb man. Mob man. Yeah. Dan the man. When you don't have anything to watch, you just turn that on. Anyways, where was this going? Have you watched Speaky Blinders? Yes. Not the whole thing. What were we talking about? Well, Dean was saying, you know, Markstrom was so bad it looked like he was in on the lawn.

Holy shit. If you're on that squad and you're going... Jake the Snake, what's up, bud? Dude. So this is the guy we trade. This was our over the top. This was going to. This is the,

thank God we've got a goalie now. And they didn't pull them. I would have left them out there too. Like I don't know if they were two games back to back. It's like, oh, if you're going to stink this joint out, go ahead. That's good point. It's like, F you.

Where? Because like you say, it's not like they were breakdowns defensively. Oh, backdoor tap into. Wristers from the circles. I think that's what happened in Dallas to the Oilers. They let Jarger Stink staying for a full touchdown. I love that. That was so good.

It was really good. What did you call him? Jar Jar Sticks. Where did you hear that? Who came off with that? That's brilliant. Someone was saying Jar Jar Jar. I'd seen some sort of AI like Jar Jar Binks and Golly Gear.

I'm like, well, that's Jar Jar Jax. This guy is rotten because Ingram got hurt and they had to go back to him. And now they're saying Ingrams are one. When he gets back, he gets back. No kidding. We'll use him accordingly. You're like, well, isn't that great? You traded Skinner and Kulak and a second for a back of goalie when he

have the pig dog that was back of going. This is a master class. It is really good. Yeah. So anyway, that's So we'll watch tonight. Nice rank in Detroit. Apparently they took some of the queues off of the design.

That was one of the buildings that the flames that people here. They really like that Little Caesar. They like that Little Caesar's Arena. I think what I've heard about it is that there's lots of large communal gathering areas like concourses of things. So no matter whether you're a fancy pants like Rhett or just a casual, like Jack and I don't want to get bombed in the 300s.

You're going to be able to meet, whereas in Edmonton, you're like cordoned off by how much you pay. Who cares about Edmonton? No one's going to Edmonton. Well, it's going to Edmonton and they can see each other over and over. Nobody, nobody from outside Edmonton wants to go to it. We'll see you at KD's. Yeah.

Ed Fes. And all the other festivals, maybe. Yes. You really wanted to dig into this game, me? No. Well, you gave it a good try, Dean. Let's move on. Oh, just the phone.

I don't really know what, you just never know what's going to come through in your phone. I hope it's positive for you, Dean. Rarely, if ever. I like the time that that guy was trying to get you to extend your satellite radio. Yeah, yeah. For a half to show. Because the last car burned down, as I recall.

Carpurn. So, now, the one thing that I was going to just bring up, because the flames have, whatever it is, one win in their last. right? A couple wins. Two for March. They're two for March.

We talked about going into the trade deadline. You need to move these guys because if you move these guys, it's going to mean fewer wins. Yep. With what you're seeing, do you feel like if you were to flip it, how many more wins do you think they would have with Rasmus or Weeger or? The way they were playing? Playing some one goal games. I don't think you can just shrug it off. That's true.

like it's three two without those guys. And I'm sure we'll see the standings and I'm not, I don't care to get seen right now. One more win? Big deal. Yeah. Like it doesn't have to be seven more wins. Their last two games,

there have been one goal games. It did win one of them. They're losing to the Rangers anyway for nothing. Caps was three, three and then the bottom came out. I don't know. I feel like there's hell kind of max output. Like I, you can't debate it to one goal game.

Does an Osam-Codry shot or around? fast. Sure. Yeah. Sure, it could. Weager, yeah. It could absolutely happen. I feel so much more comfortable after the trades that they're going to be two or three from the bottom. And they were kind of floating around that four to six range. It was scary. Now, St. Louis is, we started winning the ranges of one. Chicago's picked up some points. So that's a part of it too. But they're, they're absolutely flooring it and playing their asses off. That's what I see. Again, and it's more credit to them. Yes. They, yes. Yes. I'm like, did that headphone

cut out or was that me that said that? That was you, yeah. That's me, okay. They traded away three leader popular guys, the whole thing, and they continue to work at... The culture is impressive.

Yeah, you can talk all you want about the lineup. Look at what's going on in Toronto. Oh, it's exactly not. Oh, but there's a whole heart in their chest. A lot of nights. The issue is that they kept their guys in a way. And what I was going to say is, full credit to Huska and the coaching staff

and everyone down at Saddleum Rizeway Place, they do work hard. But it's easier to get convinced as Huska as a coach. It's easier to convince a bunch of young guys to go work your ass off than it would be contra right now. And the new guys have been real for sure. The pet would be on. The other thing

too is like White Cloud and Mata they seem to be embracing the opportunity rather than being like, oh boy. Well, how rewarding would it be? Strom too. Between Strom and Mata, those are two guys they got healthy to bunch this year. Exactly.

Like, it's pretty nice to go to a city and start playing hockey. A lot of it, yeah. Right? Like, the minutes from Matt? Top dog hockey, right? Like, it's like, okay, I've not had this maybe ever in my career.

Like, you're a seven in Utah, and you're coming here and you're playing, like, what are you at 23 minutes? Matt have played 27 against the devil's, 21 the other night. Yeah, he's camp. The only issue I have, it's not an issue because I didn't know,

I didn't care to research it, blah, blah, blah. But get the query. Get the kids some. Yeah, I'd be playing. Right? I don't need. Awesome for Matt. Awesome that he's playing hard.

I don't need 27th of old, 27 minutes of all week. You know what it is? They got a lot of bodies right now. And so tonight it'll be because Netsov's sitting and a haulout. It's the first time they've run Bristewicz and Perrek, I think, since the Olympics in the same game. Perak didn't play against the ducks on March 1st. He didn't play against the Devils last week.

Outside of that, he's played. Yeah. His minutes are between 17 and 1908, 1914. And that's better than it was in the fall. And that's as it should be. But I'm kind of with red. I'm not afraid to see more. I don't, well, and that's odd.

I'm sure it's just how the games play. Maybe it's a lot of penalty kills or something. Yeah, about of 27 is high. They had them playing the right side too, which is weird because they have to find that's the outlier. It's been 20, it was 23, 54, then 20, 21, 21 against the Islander Saturday. but yeah, he was not playing. Basically.

Same as Strong. Before the trade. Yeah, and Strom's been, what, he's four points in four games. Play the shit out of those guys. Get them better and better. Bring along your young guys.

Move those guys in a year. Thank you very much. Yeah, Bristevich has played one in HL game since the 31st of January. Now he's been in the A. Yeah, they were called him after the deadline

and he's in tonight with Perak, which again, first time for both of those guys in, which means a vet's sitting and that happens to be Paul on the right side. And to that end, it's, we kind of forget about,

Like, Kuznetsoff. It's not like he's a grizzled veteran. No. This is his first go. This is all gravy for him. He needed waivers at the beginning of the year and you're like, man, is this going to be another failed process? No, he's been good.

But you're not at all a 30 year old. Like he's still. Yeah. So yeah, it's easier to get younger guys revved up and excited to play and all that or guys that were scrap heaped with other. Yeah, and there's a few of those. I would be concerned, more concerning than. Huska being able to push.

It's the actual schedule. It's terrible. Every other day. Well, and then you go, they're gone for 10 days, and then they're home for two weeks, and then you're gone for six, and it's like, oh, goodness. I believe it's what they did was five-game road trip,

they're going to finish tonight, six at home, and then five on the road. Yeah. Those are. Ugh. It's very quickly, that's what happened. with it's compressed like it is. It's very quickly become a nine-game

pointless streak for Conner's Erie. And is centering the fourth line tonight and was fourth line against Jersey on Thursday on the left side? 10 minutes, 41 seconds, Saturday against the Islanders, 12 and change against the Devils. I got a hot take care. 13 and a half. He played 18 against the Rangers,

but outside of that, the last handful of games have been reduced ice. If you have binoculars and we're really, really, really paying attention, you may have noticed Victor Oliveson since he's arrived. But that's eaten up Conner's area. Yeah, I'll need to borrow those binoculars. Like if you're not, then no.

Like peripheral has the shot. The weapon he's always had. He's gotten better defensively. How good is it to have a shot if you're no? He's gone anyways. He's a you this summer. Like I would, I understand you got him back and he's a, you know, you're probably doing a solid of the player saying you're going into free agency.

We want to give you the opportunity. But none of the expense of Conner's area, fellas. Yeah. He can sit. 100%. We've given you four games. You've got one measly assist. You have this Tyson Gross that's up. You're probably...

Well, the other issue, I actually wonder if Connor Zerri said if he's going... Yeah. What? So this guy's going to be here for two months. And I'm finally having a healthy year. Something odd about the Zeri situation, though. About last year, there's two injuries, man.

It's tough. Because they were... They ground him pretty hard on the contrary. track negotiations, right? And in hindsight, it's like, probably glad you did, but it's not easy on the player. You might be looking at different players' confidence if it didn't happen. Yeah, and he, I don't think

he, I don't know that he deserves the benefit of the doubt, as in getting more ice time, you know what I mean? But he don't get it. I don't know why I'm inclined to believe there's more there. I just, because we've seen it. We could get to the end of this thing. Here's a question. What's about Coronado's ice time being?

It's been much better than He's playing top six wing. And is he producing? The goals aren't there. He has, I mean, because everyone was talking about he had 10 shots and it's like, okay, well, that's great. Awesome.

He had six in, I think it was on Broadway when they played the Rangers in that loss. Or was it Jersey? Two assists, no goals in his last 14. So what's his ice time? And if you're, and I'm not fluctuating, again, probably special teams related.

1747 against the island. 13 against the devils. There's a couple 13s in... As he got the fourth on shoot. But you're right. You're close at 13. A little more runway. He's been spotty for me.

Like, I've noticed him some games like, man, he's really shooting it tonight. And then the next game, you're like, where is it? The issue will for Zeri or for Coronado will be if he doesn't have like get, I don't know, Zeri's a good disher. If he doesn't have someone dishing it to him, he's not a do it himself, God. He'll be with Frost. He's a shooter, too. So somebody better get him the puck and then maybe he can maximize.

I'm just pointing things out where it's like, if you're trying to find room for Zaria, there should be a spot you can find. Coronado to me very much looks more so like a, he's a shooter. Yes. Not a creator. Because there's a couple times in the last week

where he's had the puck and he's got to make a play or dump it in and chase it. And he's just flipped it over, dumped it in and chased it. Look at me, he buzzes in there and loses the foot race. And then it comes back to it. It's a turnover. Like he's turned a puck over. And that's fine.

That's not your. so you're not a shifty puck transporter. That's fine. You need shooters and the flames more than anybody else. It feels like needs shooters. But he still, he looks to me like a guy. It's not even a confidence thing.

I feel like when he gets goals, it's not a, well, yeah, because I'm a shooter. It's a, okay, that one went in. If that makes any sense.

This year it does. He looks like a guy, like, oh, okay, that's a really went in. Okay, that's good. As opposed to,

that was labeled. I knew where I was putting. I'm, I'm scoring. I'm scoring. I'm, I'm scoring right here. We're going to start seeing this with this roster and have this year, to be fair.

I checked today. They are 32nd in goals scored in the league this year. That'll get you there. 32nd and goals scored? Goals for per game, 32nd. 2.47, worst in the NHO. Less than everyone. Name a team, less.

They were kind of like 30. Well, I just feel like Vancouver's so terrible. Vancouver's right there. They're probably 30th, 31st. But the point being is, like, who is a natural playmaking center they have? Like, that's not Backland's calling card. Frost, you see the skill set. You want it to be that, but that's not what he does.

He's not a 50 assist guy. Like, he's a half point of game. He's a third line center. Strom has been that early in his career. He just arrived. They don't have a playmaking center. And that's why this rebuild was so important to get into because, you know, Nazum could play a bit of that role.

Less of a distributor, more of it. I'll take it to the score. area myself. But like, you start looking at this roster as an age, you're like, who's going to make the plays? Like, who's going to find Coronado when he's open? I don't see a natural playmaker here. Yeah, they lost. The last time they had a capable center. Well, I mean.

Top tier first lines. Look, when when Liddon played with Godro and Cichuk, that line was one of the best lines we've seen in the last 15 years. Is he a driver, though? He is not, but with those two wingers, he could do it enough. 100%. He's a plumber. I agree. Yeah.

But you're right. It's been a franchise need since, like, Newendike and Gilmore left. Like, he, like, drums. Right. It was for a couple of years, I guess. And the injuries got him. You're right. Bennett.

Never. Didn't find it until he was out of here. He's still less of that distributor and more of that I'm going to go to the hard areas. They haven't had one. Like, they're one C. Like, who is going to get me 60 assists that play center ice? Nobody. go out Connie

Good to work Everybody's so high on Peconrae Hey Keep them honest here Keep them honest It's Monday That means it's past the Mondays At the Prough

So mean. What was the law question? Will Conner's area get another contract with the Flames? Ooh, I thought another goal on the road trip. No, another contract. This guy's cost me money. I don't care. Come on, Jack.

What did he do to you, Jack? Lost a bet because of him. What? He got his rookie card. What does it matter to you if you win or lose a bet? Yeah, he'll pay your debts anyway, Jack. I mean, if you won it, I would have paid the, so he would. Yeah, he could have collected.

You're half the right. Is your pride so damaged because there's no repercussions otherwise. You deadbeat. I was very sewered him. Sad but true. Game day. All right, friends. It is Pinder Report time.

It's like you're there. I like the warm ups. I like Jody Shelley doing color. I like our boy, Adnan, N'VIR. Yes. Good crew. I like most cider. Most I was quite good, yeah.

Yeah, of all the failings of the Izer plan. And that was, remember our people's reaction when they drafted him at 5? Like, whoa, what? This is a, and he's like, no, I didn't think this was that line. We had him went off our list. He liked this guy a lot. It's big. Mo?

Yeah. Mo's the German. Okay. Flames Nation, what's cooking on the website? Well, okay. Look at the old lineup. Thank you, Jats. There you.

So we told you, fourth line, Zeri. There it is. Pospesal on the right side. What the hell is there he's supposed to do with that, Huska? I'm sorry. I can give me all the credit. Hot and cold today, Reds. Hasn't he eaten Huska?

Just go easy on him. Beach her out after the two-bowl game in Jersey. And Klapka will have a seat. Taksa still has the wading. The Klapka. Your pairs. White Cloud has returned on this road trip. He's healthy again.

He's playing with ball. They got Ole Mata with the youngster Brestevich and Hanley and Parek. First game post-Olympics, again, with both Perek and Brestevich. More of that, please. Are we enjoying where Porek's been spotted? All right. We think that's the right. You know what I mean?

Should he be someone else? Are we okay with this? Let's critique these guys a little bit. It's just been loving. Because that's the thing. I'm putting no parameter on. Is he playing? Playing minute?

Okay. Well, how's he playing? I don't know. Is he getting power play minutes? It's almost, I'm not even judging the mistakes or the. It's looked like Perak. You've seen the high IQ and you've seen the, oh, that's time and spot.

based in the D zone that he's not used to. But there probably are people that have watched... It's going to find his ass in the HL next year. Well, that's a problem. I don't think... That would be a fear, and I don't know that... It's not a fear for me. It's good for him.

Could be. I think... Well, I think he might play-wise deserve to be there. I don't imagine they send him there. If you... Well, that's, again, another's message for the kids. There's something funny. We've talked about it.

There's something funny. Here. You need to do what is best for the development of the player. You can't be serving anything ahead of that right now. Whatever it takes to get this guy into the best NHLer in five years, that's what you have to do. Screw feelings. Yeah.

Any of that. Okay. Wolfsman, he's going to start. He came in and relief Cooley. Go ahead. I'm just looking at the lineup of the guys that are sitting. Yeah.

So out on the back end, Pahal, and Kuznetsov out up front, Beecher, Klapka, and the newly signed gross. Oh gross He should get him I forgot that he was for I got to get into I did not realize The old man

Yeah I was I was going to say Is that not Kevin's kid? Yeah His old man Where have us for the team Come on Thank you Miss you

Gathrow here God bless Yeah she's Blah blah blah Trying to make conversation Is Kla Deserving of sitting Is Beecher

Like What's Beecherbean I don't care I'm not trying to. They've had too many bodies. But are they not all the same? I don't know. I mean, look, if you're Huska and you're playing meaningless games,

another, what, 17 times or whatever they got on their schedule, who's going? Who looked a little flat? I think that anything more than that's probably over analysis. Well, I'm getting at Klapka, I think it's going to be here a while. Oliveson can go away. Mr. Olifson is a spot where, right?

Like, let, I don't know what he's going to. be. But again, I still feel like he's not where he will end up. Or maybe it is. No, I agree with you. There's, there's, it's more than just, oh, this guy's a fourth line. Like, you see flashes of things are clap. We're like, wow, we can really affect games. Yeah. And the other guy, I'm like, again, maybe if you had the fox tracking glow thing around him, I'd notice his first three games. Well, if we have a power play and they put him out there to shoot, then you'll notice him. If he gets a pass to him, maybe. Maybe he's got a tickle. Maybe he's, yeah, and it's a game roguy. To your point. They've got

a bunch of bodies and a bunch of games. Like, well, don't pout because we play again in a day. Yeah, every other day. We'll be back in. Yeah. Okay, we'll keep moving. Elsewhere on Flames Nation. I'm going to hit my bonus, Dean. I got a bonus. Bonus. What's not about?

Okay, a little mock draft over. We're done that. We don't have to stay. Okay. Summer's off. Christ, how do they get second overall? They stayed put. But, uh, Stenberg, the comp, I don't know if you were on the show we mentioned the other day,

Gensel. I like Gensel. Sure. I thought you said Pannarin. Nope, Pinerin, was McKenna. Just a winger that elite vision, feet aren't electric, but just... Who's made this comparison?

Stephen Ellis, talking to a lot of scouts, that, those things sort of... You're talking to a lot of scouts? Yeah. Or he is? Both. Who? I'm not telling you my sources.

A lot, a lot of scouts? You're talking to a lot of scouts? Somebody else in our group is talking. In this draft class, I will inquire to three or four people that watch them for a living and just say, what do you see? What's a comp? Well, this is ridiculous talk. You're not good at pretend and this is pretend. Let's get off pretend.

And what else is on Flames Nation, Jack? Because I'm sure there's an excellent article. A Michael Backland scoring his 230th goal passing Kent Nelson. Screw you, Kent. Is it Kent Wilson or Kent Nelson? Oh, sorry. I love it. back.

Ron Kent, sorry, guys. Thanks for that day. Congratulations, Michael Beckland. Dean would have had you out of here in 2011. He did suggest the K, yeah. Oh, we just sacrificed a lot of winning, if that were the case. That's a good point.

We're into the final home stretch of the Saddle Doe, friends. Get your ass down. Florida is in town on, I believe, Thursday. There it is from Pike Bomb, yeah. Final 50 games. What do you have to sit around and think about to Pike.

That's what Pike's God love you, Pike. That's amazing. Like, that would never even enter my train of thought. I want to go to this one. I'm just doing the math. Yeah. Chuck will be there.

That's always spicy. If you go to, let's say, 10 games a year and how many beers? How many beers do I have left at the dome shack? 200. Yeah. That's about it. There's March.

Two wins in it. That is so. busy. And don't sleep on the fact that Feb 28th was not three days before the first read. It was a back-to-back that opened the pond. This is insane. It's so compressed.

Insane. I sit here and let's send some people to Prague. I look at that. I have to watch all those games. I don't have to play in them. I'm not working them. I'm not practicing or doing morning skates. There's four games I've got to watch that week.

16 games. in 30 days. It's too much hockey. It is. It feels too hard to play that often. Sorry. Detroit looks like this, fellas.

We'll take a peek. They are missing Dylan Larkin, the gold medalist. He is their 1C. He will be re-evaluated later in the week. What happened? Oh, no. He's hurt.

Don't you know? I didn't know. And that's why J.T. Comfer is their number one center tonight. Oh. Could I get to... Comfer the... Food statement.

If you came for the larkin, you're going to be disappointed. It's the roughnex once. Are they playing on St. Paddy's Day? They always do the rough mix. Is it this weekend? I don't think they would play on a Tuesday. No, but I mean, they'll have their St. Patrick's theme.

They did that on the weekend. Was it last weekend? No. Yeah, the weekend that just happened. Oh, we missed it. Son. Jack! Yeah.

Let's to do it twice. Nando that. De Brinket and Kane on the top line. Peron, Raymond, the wingerers from Marco Casper. Emmett Finney's a nice story. He's playing with JVR Stone League. and John Leonard, not to be confused with Ryan. Dominic Shine got his first

NHATO goal last week. Sheldon Drys and Mason Appleton on the fourth line. Deep pairs look like this. This is why I don't care if this team makes it. I know, I'm with you. It would help the Flark and Reserve, but still. This has been sobering. It's a good exercise.

I'm glad we've done this. Evanson's huge. Sider's good. Falk, whatever. Upgrades the red side. Was it an Okotokes, oiler? Yep. Jacob Bernard Docker

on the right side of the third pair. And in that, John Gibson's having a monster. He's the reason they're in a playoff spot. Don't be fooled. There's your injuries. I thought it was hurt. Who's that? Gibson.

Just came back. Oh, it was. They didn't know how serious it was, but he was returned and he's been awesome. Rasmussen, Cop, and Bransig Nygaard, also out for the D. It's. Let's look at the West Standings. A lot of times.

Times past since we're in the room together in terms of these standings. They're really good weight in the U.S. they should. We should do more shows? Yeah, that'd be a great idea. You pointed it out earlier, the San Jose Sharks, look at this. A game in hand and one point out of the final playoff spot. Also with their games in hand, three of them on the Oilers, only five points back.

They could catch the Oilers. If they just win their games in hand. And Vegas. L.A. still lurking. They're two points out of a playoff spot. Same games played as Seattle holding the final wild card. Okay. Oh, what a race.

It's going to be, Dean. The East is a little more exciting. We showed you the East earlier. Ottawa has been a team with excellent numbers everywhere up, sub-goaltending, where they've been league worst, Edmonton's second-legged worst. And Lumbus, under Bones, continues to roll, picking up points.

They are just mere tie-breaks difference from in or out. You want to go by points or out, points percentages are in. That's how close it is. Howie, whatever, what's going on with Montreal? Are they in good shape, you know? They're going to live. let foul or carry the ball for a bit, it sounds like in net.

Young Colmo gave that noodle said he's the best goal. I think he will be, yeah. They need him to be now because Dobish and DeKambi and Matumbo have been just a... Anyone impressed with the Islanders didn't we just play them?

The first period, yeah, and then I kind of tuned out because it was 3-0 and then they somehow won by one at the end. How is Columbus doing this? Who's putting up the points here? Werenski, no one talks about. And he's going to get a Norris finalist's spot, I think, and was last year.

Like, quietly from the back end, he just elite production. But yeah, it's probably your Marchankos and your Broncos. I think there's guys that you don't. Jack Reeves has been good in that, the Canadian, albeit young. That's a way to pay.

The other, Garland came over for second and a third. That's a win of a deal. I should just shut my mouth, but the TV was on and they showed how many points that the Bush bomb has. It's a lot. Oh, it's a staggering number.

Yeah. I'm not giving him any credit. I know. It's pretty impressive. He's also going to get Norris votes, but hopefully not enough to be a finalist. Okay. It would be awesome, actually, if Connor won like the Art Ross. Mm-hmm.

You will. Bush won the Norris. Yeah. And they still couldn't make... And Jari wins the hard. Giori wins the heart. Charger stinks, yeah. He's an heart and soldier, Dean.

This is where we go. What did we say last year? Focus. We're going to focus. Yeah, something like that. What do we? Come on, Chicago. Focus.

Focus. You're close to pulling away. Come on. Bedard, we love you. Let's go. Yes, make a statement. Show them how good you are, kid. No, kid, go get them.

Kid. Oh, geez, 11 point gap from Vancouver. God, Vancouver's bad, eh? They're really just putting on a clank. They're doing a TED talk on how to tank right here. This is great stuff. Didn't they? They won on the weekend, didn't they?

Like, holy shit. They did. Crazy. Who did they beat? I can take a look. Minnesota lost again. What's going on in Minnesota? I don't like the vibe out of Minnesota.

I mean, you could pick up from... We'll get to the finals from last night. Let's talk about it. Sorry, Ryan. No, no, that's all right. But I just... There's a Minnesota game in there, so we'll have context. We lost that old fees.

Oh. Leaves have actually reeled off a couple of wins. They won the game that Matthews got hurt. They obviously got a scolding from their coach and their general manager apparently was hot. Was scouting, was not there, and made some loud phone calls to players. Well, your captain just got run with a dirty D. I think about that point, it's great. You phoneed in your, it's too late. It's absolutely too late. Creatives. You know, if it's too late for our kids, it doesn't mean we'd stop trying to. Oh, I've had. What do you mean? I'm supposed to worry about other days, kids. Jets get a win over the Blues.

Would have a nice to see a tie there. Yeah, three-pointer would have a good. It would have a point, Monty. And the someone might make a save ball, sends win 7-4 over the Shocks, ducks back on track. They lost that game that Goudis smacked into Austin Matthews.

There without Radco for five games, no surprise there on the suspension. Oilers do win against Nashville, but those dry sighted got dinged up, drilled by Wiseblatt, hipth. Doesn't sound serious, was eligible to return.

We'll see how it goes. Really? Wonder what makes you eligible to return? Well, I think he's clear. I don't know if he did or not. I just don't want to speak here. I don't want to be loud as wrong.

But he was, it's not to the point where it's like Leon. I wanted Nashville to put on a charge. I know. And I didn't want Edmondson to get two more points. Seattle's, who we have no feelings for, just beat the Florida's 6 to 2.

Florida has packed it in and it beat up and injured. it's going to be okay. They're going to get those flip flops on and get on that golf card, zip right to the beach. Do they have their first rounder this year, though? No.

Who has Boston for the Marchand deal of on. Boston is sitting pretty. Well, and it may be protected too. We'll have to look at that. Yeah. Right, though? Like you were not trading Marchand.

Well, it was a conditional second, remember? And then if they won the cup, it's a first. And now they, you know, last year, the flames out of their first. It's 32nd. This year might be really good. pick. We'll be a really good pick. Jack, research that. Jack, would you get on that

please? You love the Sabres. You're going to love them more. I can't. Check this out and try not to love them more. Because you know, this generation of players a little different than the one you were part of it. Soft. And Rasmus Dahlin was asked about

how do you get the boys tighter as a group. Did you play a role in joining that as like the cast of a leader? Everybody's a part of it. I mean, I can't just be one guy. everybody to stand up for each other. It has to come within the group and I think everybody has done a great job. You're working together. Drink beer. No, it's a mix of everything. I mean you spend so much time with

each other and you really got to find ways to get the group together and really get to know each other on a deep level. That's different from just being a teammate. You know, that's, that kind of's, going to dinners. Like I said, drink, fish and beers. Talk, get to know each other. I love this kid. Oh, should I play this for my kids? And I don't know to talk?

If you played this to your generation, they're like, are you telling me water's wet and the sky's blue? Hello, obviously. But it's, I don't know, I don't want to, you know, over. Tail as oldest time, Gene. Exaggerate here, but it's kind of becoming a bit of a lost art. Like, that Leafs team didn't look like that. I got to say something to you. Okay, good.

All right, let's go back over the last few years. Yeah. Now, I don't know that Nate in Colorado was a big boost bag. So we'll take that Colorado win out. Okay. Let's go back to St. Louis. What was the catalyst? What was the catalyst?

A song on a jukebox in Philly. Drunken Brett Hall singing. To yellow. Oh, yeah. I got my number. What were the punch of the mouth Panthers kind of? built all around. Yeah.

They went to the elbow room. Yes. How did Washington was... Oh, Ovi. Did they like to have? Shift. Yeah. Were they in trouble to start?

Ovee. My daughter's got a recital. I'm not going to be able to get... Good one. You're coming with us. Trent. I'm pointing out a few things that's... We're all in the same page here.

We are. And it's St. Paris Day tomorrow. I mean, it doesn't... You know, he's not saying we go out every night. You can have water, too. You know where all the stems. It's because it happened in Toronto to Toronto's captain and all the media and Buffalo's right there.

Someone doesn't stick up for a teammate when he gets knee dirtily, which may or may not be a word. The captain, no less, your most important player, for sure, nothing happens. And then all these other people around the league asked, oh, so what did you think? How do you stick out? Like, well, how do you build that? You don't have to be like best man at my wedding to stick up for your teammate. And that's what's got everyone furious around that leaf situation. Well, if you're around it.

And it's two things. You saw, sorry, you saw the Buffalo Tampa Bay highlights. Yes. A team coming together. And then you saw a team that's clearly fractured. You don't even have to win the fights. And the boys were tighter after that one. Yeah.

Nice to win the game. That helps too for sure. Made a difference. Anzi Kopitar continues to climb the lists of things that are important in Los Angeles, like points. It was played. I actually found this list. Venice Beach.

Working out? I think probably Manhattan Beach. But yeah, not that far. Good on his bicycle. Uh? Cycle up to Muscle Beach. Yeah. Well, I don't know.

I'm out of California. You got rent bikes. Yeah. You got bike glades here. You don't even go to California. You don't need gears down there. It's just everything's the sea level. Nice and inch.

Uh, this is kind of cool. Most points by franchise. There's some odd ones in there. Utah sucks. Well, No, they're not taking the Arizona records because Gary said that's a dormant franchise. This is a new franchise. I see.

They're saving the Arizona records for whenever Darcy Hortichuk in is. The Leafs have never had. That's the scariest stat in the whole thing. A thousand point players. And they've had a team since the league started in 1917 or 18. What? Hoey. I would not have guessed Ron Francis.

They're keeping the heart for it clearly. Yes, that is the same franchise. This was a one-off. And if you see the... Pittsburgh, a fair bit. Oh, his games played is stupid. Sid, man. Impressive stuff.

Trying to look to see what I'm wording. Sid, Gordy How does? I think that's about it. Wow. Gordy played a bit, huh? Keep moving. If you ever needed more evidence that goaltending is impossible to forecast,

here is start of the season, the Olympic break, the blues second worst goaltending in the league, allowing 30 more goals than they should have based on the chances they allowed. Since the Olympic break, the best. What's GSAX? That's gold saved above expected. It's just a fancy way of saying, that was a backer tap

in that should go in versus that was a lot of the goaltending was good yesterday. Was it? City fine. Look out. I don't know. How do you figure this shit out? You get a good goaltender or not. Charger stinks was good in Pittsburgh. No skin dog is good in Pittsburgh. George Ars Stanks was never that good.

No, he wasn't. He was on waivers a year ago. It's a fair point. Hmm. Tonight. Games. Stan missed that part. Double header on Prime.

Prime. I'll let you take the wheel here, Dean. Calgary, Detroit. Oh. Because I go one more. There we go. Calgary, Detroit. I think we got it brought in to play with Rhett,

and it was maybe not the right time for that guy to come. I got an old timer. They want to cop and both. Yeah, I know one of him too, yeah. Hallfamer. And not Hallfamer. Really? Okay, so we got Vernon McCarty.

Who else are we talking about? What you mean? Okay. Brad McCriman. He coached Detroit. Did he play Detroit, too? He played in Detroit, yes. Boston, New Jersey.

New Jersey? I'm going to go paddle Zach. A handed truck again. Yeah, yeah. How long was he in Boston? Was oats in Jersey? No, don't think so. He's in St.

New York. and Washington. Kings Rangé, Gavracov, Gratsky, lots of G's. The Mammut. What about an older is like a Perrault?

Ferraro. Yeah. Sorry, now we can read. No, Ferraro never played Rangers. Islanders. Kings. That's what I said. Utah is in the Dallas's.

We will allow, hey, Mike Smith, how about that? Do you start this career? Do you talk checking me? Rick gave me a look. I was going to and then he... I'm not convinced

because I thought Ferrar did play it. He might have played for the Rangers. He did. He absolutely played Islanders and Kings. So I might be right.

You might be right. I think you are. Twice? I thought I played against him when he was a... Ramon Schen? I feel bad. Should know

whether or not Ray did. Ray's great. I've got the Ray Ron Francis update, by the way. Ronnie. Bitch can't wait for it. Dallas,

this is a, what, Alexie? Yeah, one year with the Rangers After being with the Islander Oh, oh, traitor. Goodness gracious. 9596, my first year. Yes.

That, Reds, didn't remember it. I said Mike Smith here. I believe he was a coyote and a star. You want to push back on that? Where are you? For all playing Dallas. Mike Smith was both, yeah. Okay, thank you.

And Pittsburgh, Colorado, Jack, we'll leave this to you. Biggie. Oh, good. good one. It's a weird one, but yeah. Yeah, it's a really sneaky one. Well done, Jack. You get great, Jack. Work everyone. What do you go? Yeah. We're getting too good at this. No, we're going to get drilled with some 15 games slate tomorrow. Well, there's four men in a room and five games.

See, you know. Sounds like the start of a joke. We'll move to the World Baseball Classic, which has been so good and at times, God, it can be so much better. Like, you know, this whole automatic balls and strikes that they're putting in for spring training games. Is it still going? They didn't want to take that to the WBC?

Dominican, USA, huge matchup. Where are they playing? They're playing in Miami. I had a guy that went to Japan to watch. And he said it was average. I thought it was in Edmonton. No, the festival of baseball. Well, they got that outdoor stadium.

Yeah. Right in the valley there. I think they got some Look in the river Yeah Pornocon or something's up there They're busy at the conventional This was called it

The final strike of the game Number eight there You think Dominican Well can I just Can I jump in here If we take a run at a ref What happens Ryan puts his guard

Yeah He's not taking a run at the end Disparage ref yeah Let me But okay you have the technology. It is incredibly hard to call balls and strikes. It's already happening in Cactus and Grapefruit League.

You didn't want to get more calls right at this tournament? You don't have to invent anything. It's already there. Turn it on. It's in a major league park. What the hell is going on here? Also, once so did the inning before. Struck out on a similar pitch.

that he did not swing at. Now, what are we doing here? Can I want to ask? Extra endings with these two teams. With this grid. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It looks low. Okay.

Isn't that below the knees, Dean? Yeah, if you catch the corner, they have a percentage of the guy's height that they adjust for the height of the batter. You don't know. It's very scientific. Go ahead, Ryan. We can find you the video.

It was a tough way to end what's been. So you're showing this and nothing else? Yes, that's correct. Oh, okay. What game is this? I need the video. We're good. It's USA Dominican.

It was a very, very good game. So it was a ball and they called it a strike? Quite a ball, Rhett, if you look at it. Well, like, this is your thing. Home plate umpire messes up call. Unnecessarily, despite the technology being available and not instituted for this. Dean. Do you have us a strike?

Thank you, Dean. Other semifinal goes tonight. It's Italy, Venezuela. Oh, man. Bacuccaracha. Yeah. Nothing like Aeronola, American born and bread playing for Italy

against somebody Montero. How long is this event? Calabrian. It will be over in a couple days. I imagine this is the second seven fun of Wednesdays. I was too drunk to understand this on Friday. Why are there so many Americans on Italy? Because they couldn't make the U.S.

We have a tournament. They just have passports. They all have Italy. Why don't we do that? Grandparents thing. Why can't the Canadian hockey? That was the Italian team of the Olympics. Well, it should be better.

Vancouver was their best player. I think, you know what the problem is? These bastards, an international hockey, once you play for a country, you can't flop. You're stuck. So they just needed ancestors that were. Yes, that's very loosey-goosey.

Freddie Freeman played for Canada, right? His mom's Canadian. I have no idea. Too young. Those are the odds. We'll definitely do an extensive 20 minute breakdown on the final when that day arrives. A still shot of a grid that had no...

It was just such a good game and you had the best players in the world going out of it. Mason Miller's throwing 102. He's the best closer in baseball. He's up against some of the best power hitters there in an incredible at bat. And with a full count and a runner on third with two outs and a two one game, it's an egregious mistake that's so easily fixed. And if you're not watching the game, it's like, I get it. What the fuck are we talking about here?

But it ruined the game. because they did it in the eighth and nine. I think the bigger problem is the fact that nobody was watching because no one has mentioned this to me. It'd be big in the U.S. I think it's huge everywhere outside the U.S. The Latin American country's many, many players saying this is bigger than a World Series. Julio Rodriguez,

I'm not going to be able to the World Cup for the World Cup. I can tell you. They screw up the World Cup of baseball. I'm not going. That's it. I'm not going to Edmonton for the fucking work. Yeah, that's it. It's World Cups.

Now, speaking of World Cups, One's got it right. What sport is it? You went. I love rugby. No, that's a good one. I'm telling you, if you went and watched the World Cup of Rugby, you'd be impressed. Seen Six Nations this weekend.

Excellent rugby. You're going to watch any. It's early in the morning. You're up. Okay. Puts and about. Yeah. Check it.

I also was watching Ozzy Rules football. Oh, I love Ozzie Rules. The Sydney Swans were taking a real. Beat down. They were kicking the piss. Oh, yeah. The Brisbane. Oh,

It was not even close. The NRL teams, the Brisbane Broncos, and the Lions, I believe is the NFL squad. I've never figured on how they get points. They kind of get them. They fumble the ball, but it's them putting it on the ground and they get points and they're not kicking it. Great sport. It's very complicated. It's a big oval.

There's so many guys out there. Anyone out there knows if there's a league for children to play this in Cal. Calgary, please DM me on my WhatsApp and socialists. Big on the socials. Or go surpinder. Thank you. You're welcome. Because I want to get my kids into it.

The real World Cup that knows what they're doing, we think, is the soccer one, which is being hosted in Canada, USA. They're the most corrupt. Absolutely the most corrupt. The term is phenomenal. Okay. And they just know what they're doing. Big time.

Yeah. When we know what we're doing, we'll be just kingpins of corruption with. Can we get tickets to this? New Jersey's today. New Jersey sent us the tickets. New Jersey. that's the red one very good and this is new the black one I haven't seen

Canada and black very often oh oh all right very good I'm excited that's a terrible picture that's a terrible it is a tough picture you can't even make up what you it is dark I'm not blaming you lashes of white paint let's get back to Australia because we're a black I bet if they took the picture from the

other side where it's lit because we get to see the shadow really highlighting how dark the jersey is I think team that's the it's a black jersey they really want you to know that well they could have just put up a black photo then because this is only slightly more reveal it. Okay. Here's the black jersey. Back to

Australia where they do things right. Yeah. Ozzy rules. Now there's a lot to like here. Hang on, Jack. Let's settle down. Ozzy's love their mullets. What's he wearing on his chest? He's got a Buffalo Bills t-shirt. This is one of the great co-labs of all time. Bill's

guy judging a mullet competition. Let's go, Jack. We're looking around the sideburn. These guys are awesome. This sounds like a sheep. And then they're going to give a little shake at the back. They're literally judging it. He's got a scorecard.

Look at that. Party in the back. Wow. Now, do you give extra points for the naturally curly hair? Yes, the bolitude is the most important factor in rating the bullet. I don't think. For the... It's just all to fit together, right?

it's the whole the sum of all the pieces is what matters. It doesn't have to be curly but if it is and it fits, great. Who's willing to commit right now? I did.

To a fall mullet competition. I can't grow hair. You're good in the back. Look at your back hair. It's going to be a skullet. That's fine.

Yeah, I can't. I used to, I had one. There's a photo somewhere. Really? Yeah. Can you provide that photo to the show? I'll try. I'll see if I can find you.

I can submit that. Because I had the naturally curly thing going to the point I saw a folks like, who is this? Oh my God, that's me. Really? Yeah. How well? I was a younger man then. Is that right? So even...

How does that work? The hair was even kind of... There is. There's Dean. God, you look good in Manitota. Jack, in? I could be in. Get some of your loser buddies to get in? That does look like one of your Lugan idiot buddies for sure. I got to get a flight to says good.

What's going on with wrestling? Inspiration. Finally, there's some good pranks on the old internet. Is it for the event in like a day or two? Mark Lawton, retirement. Yeah. Is it Friday? Just get my nephew to fly me over.

Yeah. It's so dumb, but I love it. This is so dumb. This is the beatkeeper getting on the New York subway. Let's roll it. This guy's dame. He's a legit pranks. He has an arm full of foxes.

He's got the high- while wearing a beekeeper out and look at the faces. Oh my God. It's a little far. It's dumb, but I like it. That's your Pined Report this Monday, March 16th. Village Honda reminding you the prelude is back at Village Honda. Legendary SportsCube's been reimagined as a hybrid.

We're talking about that first ever electrified prelude. It's there at Village Honda, Northwest Automobile. all village haunted.com, your dealership for life. I threw a couple things in there, Jack. One, it's Detroit tonight. Detroit is in Detroit at the arena. Little Caesars. Joe Lailas.

I don't know if you can catch a flight there in time for the game. It's not far. On the way to Saskatoon. It's not far. Yeah, it's not far. It was last year or maybe two years ago, I forget. It was around Thanksgiving, and they had the Detroit Red Wing Zamboni gravy boat. There were a number of teams that are doing.

the gravy boats in the shape of a Zamboni. And they figured, why stop there? They've been good with the Zambonies. People love the Zamboni gravy boat. Yep. What about the Zamboni chicken finger French fry basket? We have that down at the dome. I didn't go to the dome.

I'm not joking. I think the flames have something similar. The wings did the gravy boat and everyone said, why didn't we think of this? Then the penguins did it. It's phenomenal. did one last year. Have you met a child in your existence that doesn't love Zambonies? Like if a Zamboni pulls out onto the rank,

it is one of the great wonders of the world for these children. It's basically as interesting as a construction. It's like a backhoe. It's phenomenal. For like a six-year-old boy, there's nothing better than this. I get fries and chicken fingers and it's a Zamboni. It's a good. Isn't the flame film the popcorn?

By people. Yeah, I think of Vetskins. What do we think about the chicken finger to French fry ratio there, Jack? I need to know, oh, I'd say it's pretty fair. I'm fair with that. I want to see the bottom. What's in the container there? You're only teasing?

No, we're going to get three, maybe five chicken strips. It's a big difference. Well, but you're probably going to have to get a couple some bonus. Well, no, what I'm saying is that it's going to be on the, do you want three or five? Okay. You're not, it's not a randomness to the server's choice. I think you're cute, so you get five. It's not happening.

Two months in children, so probably get two zambonies and it'll all get eaten. And they get one each to take home and put in their rounds. I don't like showing me this today, though. Remember when, did you ever as a kid, you'd go, it was a dairy queen or whatever, where they had the baseball, the batter, the batter helmet. Sunday. They do that at a lot of ballparks. So good.

Jack? Well, and the sabers had the sword for the beers. Yeah. The saber of beer. But I'll tell you, for the kids, it's maybe cherry picking a little bit, but what kid doesn't love a Zamboni? And beer. They love them.

Yeah. I mean. Or red wine. Your kid's still in the, really solomoye? Is he moved on to Oak Chardonnays or where's he had? He's a big Rastmas Dahlene fan. It's all. Beers, though.

We want to have some beers. Trying to be a good team guy. Not that hurt. There will be some minor hockey teams in Buffalo. It'll be well. Well, that's Buffalo sober. after nests. No problem.

It's a problem here. It's in a camp. That's what that is. All right. Hearing loss clinic. Hearingloss.ca. I just want to. I mean,

we're working out the details. Me and Roadsie. Oh, you're working on something. You're like scanning the socials or just? We're going to have a jersey giveaway coming up. Really? Yeah.

We're going to have a jersey giveaway. We're going to have the details. I believe it'll be a, I don't know. I can't say it because again, you don't want to be up. Oh, see there again. Good. Somewhere, I can't say anymore.

No. Enough said. But there will be a Jersey giveaway. You'll need to be following the social medias of the hearing loss clinic. Plusiders. Yeah. Should be already. And that'll be coming up here.

Maybe even this week. It's only Monday. So we'll, uh, short week this week. Holidays? Sure. Yeah. Let's do that. Jack.

Short week. Let's get a drink on Friday. Yeah, tomorrow's drinking. Yeah, tomorrow's the drinking day. I don't want to be the snob, but green beer. Can we talk about it or is that tomorrow, chat? I'll do talk. I'll finish the read.

Custom ear protection, musician molds, inner stage monitors, just a little bit of what they do. Of course, they are about hearing loss, hearing impairment. It's about empowering people to be active, socially active. Maybe you avoid certain situations where you know you're kind of having to get people to repeat themselves. You can't avoid that all together. Hearing Loss Clinic locations in Calgary.

Green beer. If you see it or like, yes, give me one. And you're like, can we just get hammered like the Irish did, nut, but dye? I've never added dye to my beer. I just drink the beer. Thanks. I've been given one and drank it. Yeah, I didn't refuse it.

No, and that's fine. But if you're hell bent that like you're running around with the die and And I get why you're established. I'm usually drinking gizabeth, so. Die doesn't show up well in the goodness. Are they doing, do they put, it's green? So is it for St. Patty's Day in Chicago? The green, that's tomorrow.

It's already begun. Yeah, yeah. I saw some videos. Now, maybe they were using old footage, but it's a big deal in Chicago. It is a big deal here. Is it a big deal here? less than Chicago. I feel like we don't do

things big as other places. We're not the festival city. We don't do Pondike days very well. I know that. I think we've got a really big one in the summer that we do quite well. I agree that. And most focus is put on that.

Yep. Yeah. Hell yeah. I don't. I'm sure there's other things. I've heard a bit referred to as like, on a world level, this is kind of a big deal. Something like that.

I figured how it's the greatest outdoor. Something else, something. We're doing it. Get outside and check out our. It's good. Massive event. I believe so that goes. It's a little braggy, but I process it's a little braggy.

Here is your Ron Francis update. So, hmm. You had said, how did he play it? Because he was leading score for the franchise. Ah. Of the Carolina Hurricanes slash Hartford Whalers.

But he was in Pittsburgh. He played nine full seasons in Hartford. In the 10th season was traded to Pittsburgh. Got some rings. A couple. Spent seven years in Pittsburgh. Nine and seven. Sixty eight words.

In the seventh year, it goes back to Carolina. Which was Hartford. That's right. Six more there. Oh, he played it tough. And then Toronto for a year to end it. Yeah, you can do it up the last year.

Everything else is pretty good. Just a random Toronto there for 24th season. Yeah, 1,731 games. I think he's top three in games played or something. You know why he was able to? Because they didn't jam that damn schedule. It was 16 in March when Ronnie Francis was out there,

kick an ass. Games played 82, 80, 80, 82, 78, 82, 82, 82, 81, 71, 77, 82, 84. Oh, I love the 84. So, coming back. Marlowe 1779, Gordy Howe 1767, and obviously a lot of games in the WHA, they don't count. Messier 1756, Yagg 1733, Francis two behind him. Fifth all-time game split. I don't think he's going to catch Yoggs.

Going to be tough. Unless they start counting games as GM or president of the Cracken, he's in tough here. And he might not be there very long. That's the thing when you, if you only think, like if you're, if you were dead when this was happening. Like Jack. Like Jack. you'd be like, Ron Francis, GM of the Cracken. I don't know.

Was he any good. Did you why? I don't know. I don't really care for the Crackin. They're kind of boring. They're kind of boring. I'm not joking. This came up.

So the kids had their finals weekend, two weekends ago. And I bought supper for them. And then the coach was like, well, would you like to? And I brought up the 95, 96, we played them in the semifinals. Yeah. I said, do you guys know who? Well, I said, do you know who Johan Garpin Law is? And I named some of the Florida Panthers team.

I was Jody Hull. Mike Huff? I'm like, what are you talking? And said, well, do you know who Yarmier Yager? Oh, yeah. Yikes. Mario Lemieux. Oh, yeah.

Ron Francis. No. Blacks. Like, you don't know. Yeah. 1798 points. I was going to say. So there's the 1731 games played.

Oh, that's a lot. So what is he kind of just hanging around? He's over a point of game for his career and played all those games. So in the 22nd and 23rd season, he was still productive? Holy. Hey, Ron. You were a hell of the player. Kind of shy as a GM, but hell of a player.

I couldn't mind some of this work. Bobby McMahon. Bauderil's tech to the GM. Bobby's been on fire. He had to wait for his paperwork to get done. He missed like three or four games. He's worried yesterday. He's got five points in his first two games.

I was looking at the, at that game, that crackin game, because you know how we love the crackin. Yeah, we do, Dean. Put a six spot up last night. Okay, listen, they get a win. Let's get, let's get these guys there due, you know. Let's stop being a bunch of negative Nellys.

We wouldn't do that. Ben Myers scored for them. Sorry, who? Ben Myers got his seventh. Tyler's brother. Ryan Winterton also chipped in with a goal. He scored against the flames. And an assist.

At least to. Alexiak got a goal. Bobby McMahon on the power play. Capo caco. Ten goals. It's a nice little pickup, but he's not a star. 10 goals. I don't know if it is a nice pickup.

It had the potential to be a nice pickup. He had a good little run last year, and you're probably banking that the next five years is going to be better than a third or whatever you had to give up to get him. I'm not, not a star. When you drafted him at two, you wanted a star.

Wanted a star. Did it a little friend here. Let's do that one day, Dean. You love doing that stuff. Let's go through dusters. There are kids that are still young, but shitty. And just a couple years ago,

we're going to be franchise altering additions. Guys, and we could even put like a, you let me down. Oh, I thought, I went to that for you. I did my part. Hold up your end of the bar.

You're not doing yours. What the H? Jack don't pay his debts. Well, that's a doubt with Jack too. Now he's in. See, he's already started. We've lost him.

No, that's all right. I was just going to, Nazav Kodry has 41 points in 61 games for the flames. Okay. 41 points. Still leads the team you're saying? Yes.

Okay. Next closest is Michael Backland with 38. So he's going to lead the team in scoring. Three points. Well, I was going to say three points back. That'd be the first time he's left. This is crossed is nine points back. Is anyone catching cadre?

Oh, yeah. Oh, backland will, yeah. A little crossball. Frost. They look close. That's what you're going to ask. Bax has had a good year, and I give him a ton of credit, but there's no way that guy at his.

This judgment of his career should be leading a team in anything except like face off some penalty kills, right? Coleman, it's been about goals. He's your team leader with 16. No one's on pace to get to 20. Coleman has 16 goals, 10 assists from 26. So yeah. Missed time. 54 games, but.

That's right. They left them up for the Olympics for a while there. That's not, uh, overwhelming. Inspiring. It jives with that. Flames have the lowest number of goals scored in the NHL. I'm asking the supercomputer warehouses that we don't have to think anymore. We just use them if there's ever been an NHL team without a 20 goal player in a full season. It's probably been one or two, but a bunch of their dusty expansion teams like Ottawa and like 92, 93 or the sharks.

Those sharks when they came in were real bad. 7475 Washington Capitals expansion team 19 goals 7475 Kansas City Scouts The Scouts 19 Gets are on he shot on at 19 scouts Rest in peace It's very rare in the modern era teams have occasionally struggled to have 20 goals For the end of the year often driven by injuries to stop top scores rather than an absence of offense Whatever.

AI. Maybe mechanic could help. Capital Automotive Group, Capital Shev. Right over there on Lake Fraser Drive. 13103, Lake Fraser Drive southeast. They were telling you about it's truck month. You like, boom, driving beautiful Sierra Denali. Boom, Daddy.

Tell you. You don't want to go up there. But if you have to take the Donali to do it, to Muddsville there? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Look at that thing. Calgary's truck destination, capital.

Chevrolet Buick at GMC keeps the line up deep, hardworking silver autos and Sierra's, everyday commuters. You might have heard about the $99 lease. Oh, that's real. Big inventory, competitive pricing, and a team that knows how to keep things simple. Whether you need something built for winter roads or maybe a summer road trip. It's a kind of place where you walk in curious, leave confident trucks, deals, and a no-nonsense experience just the way Calgary likes it.

It's all at Capital Shev. Check about online. Capitalshev.ca. Or swing by the lot. 13103 Lake Fraser Drive southeast. Boom, Daddy. It's almost Corvette season. Oh, ho. You got a new drive there. You should go pick one up.

Get the snow off the roads. Get those street sweepers. I'll clean all that shit up. Yeah, it's going to go for that still. Come on, didn't she? Let's go here. A bit out there. It was a big car show this weekend, I guess.

really here in town the big auto the big car show not the classic but like all the new not as good as the emminton one obviously no no they have the big one this was the used car show the best in the pre-owned markets the kijiji car show oh let's do some bets you want to do some bets it's still rain today oh they're gonna hear us it's getting warm boys yeah shunuch coming in hot I heard from uh old friend. Which one? Old friend.

Well, I'll let you kind of, Jack can call it up there. Oh, if you're in Edmonton, I hope it's not that guy. Well, you know how it goes, right? Does he be busy, married and stuff? I don't think he even knew,

like it was whatever. I'll just call him, Andrew. Hello, I require two tickets for Flames Panthers Friday. Are you able to assist? We'd like to watch Bax and Lombaud Weeks and NAS.

So I just sent him the Ticketmaster link for a ticket. to which he responded, where, perfect, just what I wanted. Thanks, Dito.

Just try to help a guy out. You know, he doesn't live here. How do you get tickets to games? Well, some of these other cities, they have different ticket distributors. Yeah,

different ticket distributors. Yeah, and I could have just told him, but I went to the trouble of getting the actual. Now, he just has to press the button. He clicks that link,

it'll go right to that specific games. And he'll see a wide variety of seats. I imagine there's good seats available. It's a Friday, though. Thursday, but yeah. He said, yeah, I guess it's Friday. He doesn't, hope he doesn't go on Friday. Gosh, I should let him know.

That also would check out. Don't tell them more. Actually, you know what you do? You know what? What time are you getting here Friday? I've got your Friday started out. Don't worry about tickets on Friday. That would be good.

Anyway, figured maybe you guys would enjoy that. A little self-serving, but there it is. We can do our bet 365 bets of the day, the official gaming partner of Bar and Burner. Bet 365, download the app, get in in the game. They got it all there. It is all right there waiting for you. Got a couple of parlias today, boys.

Nice. Nothing too crazy. We were really chasing it last week, going big game hunting. Let's get back to basics here. Two shots, Patty Kane, two shots Blake Coleman, two shots Mad Vagrin. These players have been doing this quite regularly. This is a normal outcome for them. Three of those things all happened, bang, plus 210.

And are the stars in Colorado, are they winning games? Are they? Sure, all right. Yeah, we're going to take Colorado in regulation because Dan the man and Jack, They got some weird. Crosby may be back. Malkin is just a regulation. Stars keep doing what you're doing.

You're going to pound the mammoth at home because you were the best team in the NHL for like the last while. What are they, like 15-0-1 or something? It's gross. So that's the Colorado bet. Listen, you do the bets. I'm very happy.

Not huge odds. That's a parlay. So that moves it from plus 160, which I have with the Stars Buckline. It goes to 275. That's the part I omitted. I just wanted to spend part, how I'm out of just,

I'll put a little Jack Pepper here with a anti-Penguins bet. Just curious, because, I mean, minus 225, it's, no, and it is a parlay again, it gets it up to plus 275.

It was not a jack thought. It was that who are the safest bets to win in the NHL? And this year, it's been Colorado and Dallas. Gotcha. Get back to basics. Okay, okay?

We'll see what goes. I appreciate it. I appreciate it. There you go. Bet 365. It's game props, player props, totals,

whatever your bet is, it's never ordinary. I bet 365. Download the app, get in the game. And like Ryan said, you know, be responsible. Just responsible within your means. And we'll wrap with super chats on a Monday. If you're watching this thing as we do it live, which I still can't believe we do it.

What are we doing live for? Just record this thing. That's the way things are going, but that's Jack's file. He's the boss. Yeah. All the money here that comes in, courtesy of you, the viewers and listeners, we'll go to the U.S.

of Calgary as we get into it here. Working man. I have become full-on apathetic. Oh, no. Towards the Red Wings and the Izer Plan. You can see these march collapses coming and nothing changes. This nucleus ain't it.

You might be right. We were not super enthralled with that roster that we, that you threw up there. And I don't know what Justin Fulk is or isn't at this point of his career, but they paid a hefty price. Was it a first and a third for fall? You're like, ooh, he better be very good. Patrick Kane was a very good player.

One of the best in the game at one point. It's still how well ago. And again, when we look at the lineup without Larkin, it's going to look a whole lot shittier because that's just their best forward. He's a very good player. Yes. They feel like a team that's in, they're in the mix, but they don't feel like a team that's been rebuilding and have a bunch of

for a team that picked as high as they have and finished as low as they did for as long as they did where's the star power? This would be a little scary if you were going to say oh, this is what the flames is going to look like in five years. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Old goalie. Like I like Mo Cider, but like Lucas Ramis coming, but

that's it. Yeah, it's, it's, it's the brain cat. Maybe we're not giving him Chris. I like the cat a lot, but that was trade, not draft and he sort of flamed out. I don't care. I'm just saying overall how you got it. I'm just saying do you have a bunch of kids that are They're not a bad team, but to both your points, they're not incredibly sexy, nor are they like,

You gotta watch this guy. Sherat's not going to be good for long, is he? Isn't he? He's an old. Falk who's getting old. The Brinkat's 28. Yeah, it's still in the end of his prime there. They set 14th in power play, 20th and penalty kill, 21st in goals for, 12th goals against 24th, 5-on-5.

It's the John Gibson show. It's the only reason they're in the playoffs. Could I have a goalie. Got to have a goalie. Sorry, working man. I just You know what? They get the flames

tonight working, man. The ethical tank continues. Y, Y, Y, C. Boom, did you play Ladook? They beat us 50-0. We didn't get a chance to do that. There's some controversy. So how does you?

So the host team spent part of the year in the A division and then came back, came down to the B division. What a C fair? It's the trickle down out of that grease pit of Edmonton.

Ladook's too close. It just kind of seeps its way. So yeah, didn't have the fortunate, didn't have the good fortune to face. Some of these smaller centers have some real

juggernaut tears. That's the thing. They don't have enough kids play, especially in ringette is even to a greater extent. So if you've got nine, 12 people that want to play, you get to play. So you could be very bad or very good. And there are

some cases where this you know you're in because of community size you're a B level that player there that's an A player that's a triple A player oh dear and because you have no players she is out every second shift just scoring goals I will all game sorry about the 15 cob there but happens makes us stronger it's for the kids doesn't the left day and na na na no no no Talas! I'll be headed to LCA tonight for the game. Saw McKenna play on Saturday.

You can coach a D-Zone game, but not talent, and he has lots of that. Who do we need to pay off to win the water? As Gary, he was telling last week to get us check. Well, everything's going Calgary's way. Don't ask us to talk to Gary. We say too many disparaging. Maybe we have too many disparaging remarks.

Gary, we'll let Edmonton have the final, but we need McKenna. Maybe that's part of it. You like a good conspiracy theory? Islanders were nowhere near the bottom. They just got a new rank. They picked first. They got Schaefer.

Oilers never pick first. They'll look into it. Certainly not so many times in a row that they changed the draft lottery rules. That didn't happen. I was just looking at the Detroit draft thing because we've talked a little bit. It should be better. They've picked high, but not highest. Despite being last in the league in a few of those years.

I mean, last year 13th overall, 15th. They got Danielson at 9, Marco Casper at 8. Edmondson at six. Lucas Raymond at four. Mosider at six. Zadena didn't work out at six. He called Zadena. Raspison at nine.

So yeah, I mean, through that. They're NHLers. Through that valley, the highest they picked was fourth. And I'm going off top of my head, so don't loud wrong me here, but I believe multiple times dead last. And then ball, ball, ball, ball, slide, slide. Yeah. Because that was, there was three poles in the lottery.

There's no two. You could finish last and pick fourth. And they did it. Thank you, Edmond. At least once. Yeah. Thank you, Edmonton. Appreciate all that.

Yeah, the lot. Are we going to do that? Are we, did we pick a new? What's LCA? I don't know what. Yeah. Is it a rink somewhere? L.C.

Lthbridge community. Is that in Detroit? If he said, if he saw. Little Caesar's arena. That's what it is. LCA. Okay. Thank you.

hadn't heard that acronym. Yeah. Unless acronym's not the word for that. Yeah. synonym hominum. The LCA. Thanks, lefty. Appreciate the scouting report on this,

whoever this McKenna person. Let's know where the rink is. I'm going to start paying more attention to this McKenna guy. I'm going to find out. Well, homework. See if you like the cut of his jib?

We're getting there. Handsome Dan. $20, $10 for every Flane's goal. Handsom Dan this year donating a charity. Happy Monday, fellas. Hope your first meal after your fast is a good one. Did Jack make it to Chapter 3? Jack, which have you on?

No, I'm watching TV shows now. Okay. You had a good time reading though. What was it? One chapter? Do you only have so much time in the day? Three months, one chapter. You were up at four. Yeah, with your sore back, you could have

got into your tub and read a book or something. Yeah. Oh, God damn it. I'm addicted to fish and chips, by the way. Are you really? A good fish and chips is excellent. I am 100. Like, he said, hope, the first meal.

Where'd my brain go? Fish and chills. Is it safe to, Well, is it safe to say that's one of those things you would far more regularly have outside of the home? Oh, never make it home. It's not worth making it home. There's certain things you go out for, and that is one absolute. And you could make it at home, but it's probably going to be better else made in the outside.

French fries are the same? Buy that. The D or G makes homemade fries, and if you do it right, but it is a gross. Yeah, like they're just there. They're everywhere. They're not expensive. I would actually be interested in the fish and chips competition throughout the city

I was going to say what are we going is that is it just cod is that the default you get some soul halibut halibut cod haddock haddock really nice yeah flaky white fish right that's what you want for that's what I want that's what I'm ordering yeah god I want to halibut's good halibut's good fish what's that restaurant near bridgelander up the center street It's called, it's a fish and chips on the outside, but it's not fish and chips.

They took over the building. It was a fish and chip shop. A bunch of fucking liars. It was a fish and chips shop. I actually drove by it with my mom months ago, and I'm like, oh, we love, like we should. But then we came to find out, it's not fish and chips, but they just stuck with it. Anyone know? I'm going to look it up.

Keep going, dude. A bunch of it. The best fish for classic fish and chips are white, mild, and flake. Atlantic Cod and Haddock being the top choice. Is this according to the same company that did the Edminton study? Cod, the most popular choice known for its mild flavor and thick white flakes. Haddock, often favored in Scotland and Northern England, of course, Nordic countries. It's finer, more flavorful texture compared to cod, more flavor and texture.

Pollock. Riley? A cost-effective, sustainable and mild alternative that stands up well. See, I'm out in the league. I'm out on, don't, this is yourself. It's a cost-effective, sustainable and mild alternative. It stands up well.

No, no. What's the best? Hallibut, a premium, firm option that is very flaky, though more expensive. Don't give me your bullshit here, AI. Just tell me, I did. Halibut's good. It doesn't know if you're saving money or not what is the best. Not what is the I'm a cheap prick fish and chips.

Hallibut. Haddock. I've gone fishing for halibut. I was on a boat one day. This guy? Never mind. Is that it, yeah. Yeah.

So, right, what do you want to do you want to find the best fish and chips in the city? Yes. That'd be pretty fun. Where do we start? Cross the street. Just make sure. Yeah, make sure before you go in and start. order and that they are who they say they are.

Keep widening that sphere. Now, do we like the, do you like the option when you can have the one, two or three piece? Because that's usually a little smaller. Or do you like, bam, this is your fish and chips. There was, I had a, there was a joint in McKenzie Town that had a,

kind of a Dijon-y, musterty tartar sauce. And at first I'm like, no. And then after I was like, yes. I'm with it. I like tartar sauce. You get a bit of dill in that. Extra tartar sauce. You know what I like is the coleslaw,

and I use that for a dip for the fries. God, it's good. A little vinegar. Jack and I used to have fish and chips once a week. Oh, yeah. Jack hates you and won't go. Or they can't set that show, but whatever. Stick to that.

Next. There's Ken. 10 bucks. The switch from Rebiggle to Rebiggle to Rebuild. Oh, for Christ, say. Do we see Huska's the coach going forward? Yes.

He seems to heavily depend on veterans, and after this summer, there may be very few of them. You'll be guys graduating into veteran status. Ferby and Frost will be your veterans. White Cloud's your veteran. Don't start a conspiracy for no reason about Huska. He's got a bunch of players that he has working. He's got three third lines and a bunch of second and third. Well, he is not, he doesn't get to go up to Craig's office and Donnie's and say, hey, listen, can you, can you get me a celebrini here like for Friday?

Craig, it's Huska here. I've been watching this Oilers Power Play. They run their top guys, like the full two minutes I'm seeing Bouchard, Drysidal, and like the whole time. Can you give me some of those guys? A couple of those. Yeah, Ryan. Geez, gosh, trying for that in the next couple of droughts. What are the rest of the players showing up?

Connie, because we're running practice out there. I don't see any. There's a lot of bodies, but when is, what do you mean? That's, until when? Okay. So that's what I'm. Huska's got a long rain here as far as I'm concerned. We're being cheeky with you.

I don't think there's any issues. He plays what he has. Could you play the younger guys more? There's a fine line between giving them the bag without him earning it. And that could bite you too. I don't, I, I, I make fun. I have. There's some jockularity there, but it's, you know, it's sarcastic.

I'm glib at times, but I think Huskers does a great job. When we see a roster that is more talented than the output the team's getting, then you can talk about what changes. Yeah, when you have. That has not been the case here. They had 96 bleeping points last year, and they continue to work their tails off and get beaten by teams that have more skill. And if, yeah, and if you litter this roster with 50 goal guys,

and he learns how to turn them into 20 goal guys, then we have a conversation. I'm going to have to. It is a thing. One of our good friends. Texted me throughout the show. Come on. Seriously starting to wonder about husk. I'm not.

I just look at the roster. I'm like, is this, it's deck chairs. Even the guys that I've said play the piss out of, haven't played well enough to get the piss played out of it. That's the thing. As you look at that roster, well, what is that guy deserve, what done to deserve that? What does anybody, no one's unseated him or them in the,

those spots and wait for two days. Do they have a single player that could crack power play one on a contender? Did we go through the goal scoring? Did we talk about that? Yeah, we mentioned that. We mentioned that. Because how many teams are in the league? Because I saw there were 32.

Yeah. 20 seconds. Cadre has 41 points. I'm not sure if anyone's catching them. Ooh, tough year. Kind of. Yeah, kind of. And I'm not seeing any kids that are.

undeniable at this point. I like the kids and they're fine, but I'm not seeing any kids that are like, you need 25 minutes. Here's the best example. I think Matt Vigridden's shown a lot of jump and pop and he's going to play it a bunch. Like, if you're saying correct, just look at 92.

That's, that's Gridden. Like, that is the thing. If guys, every time this player is on the ice, you like what you see, but he can't get on the ice. Yeah. Like, we like Ristevich, but it's not been undeniable. No, and he probably settles out as a five in this league. Like, he's not a star.

maybe he's the second pair guy if he heads closer to his seal. There's a lot of people in town to think differently. Higher or lower? He's going to be way better to go into the flames. Pristavich. I like him. He's a good puck mover,

but I would just temper our expectations of touch when he's, go try to put him in a top four of a contender. It's like, oh, he's a kid. He's too young to Right. And so when he is in that age to do it, how many times have you now picked defense this is why you're a shitty dad

you're just ruining the kids dreams this is what you do I like him yeah you're fine but when in the timing I just think it's way too early to think about a lot of the D in this league like a guy like McKenzie Weger is a seventh rounder no one of saying anything

can Bristevich be a white cloud middle pairing guy I think he is I think he can be I think that's what he's tracking it towards gridden really like grudence fucking Huska.

How it is? 10 minutes and 55 seconds against New Jersey. What the hell is going? What about the next couple of games? It's only been one since, but 16, 23. Yeah, that's better. He's been to that 13, 15. Fine.

Hitting posts, getting shots. Yeah. He can't. I think he's a good player. He's a good player. A lot of tools. Time will tell. I'm not sure if you've heard that before.

That's an old saying from 1800s. way back said it off fellas well just tune into the earlier thoughts on the NHL selecting Edmonton to be hosted we don't have a lot of thoughts on it no indifferent it will be what it'll be

we're supportive of all Albertans and cities in Alberta when one of them makes the playoffs that's who we get in to a man I think we all agreed can't wait to get up there to watch the game well it is the festival city we've booked our rooms we've got our hotels we're ready Can't wait to get up there.

Exciting. Because again, if you weren't around for the start of the show, we did kind of reference it. Here's the thing. Forsytes, we've got some background information that when Gary was in town and they were negotiating, we wanted

some of the finals games from Gary said, listen, I'll slide you, McKenna. You slide that to Edmonton. let's all make this work. Yeah. I'd encourage you to check out Burson's 2025 Global Sports Cities Report. Burson McGillard.

Jack, could we get the link to that? We'll put it in the description below. I've got to go, guys. I'll put that in there. Tomorrow on the show, not in studio, but magically through the technology that exists.

Cassie Campbell Paskill will join us. She was in wherever the Olympics were. BAMF. She was over there doing that. Jack put on quite a show on BAMF. You got cold. Yeah. Yeah. We know, Cassidy's going to come on. We'll talk. We'll talk some flames. We'll talk some hockey. And the, uh, there's a big match, the women's game. There's an exhibition coming up that's almost sold out.

I'm seeing. That's huge crowd. You know what? We didn't do any. It's not to brag about about it. I'm proud of you. Silver medal. Paralympic. I didn't talk anything about the Paralympics. Curlers won gold. I was going to say, it was one of those, I was, I would like, can you show it? You can't show it. The Paralympic curling is unbelievable. How are you doing?

John Thurston got in one shot where you made five? What? Unbelievable. Threads this birth. It's one, sheds the other, sticks for five. You could give me a thousand years in men's league and I couldn't do it once. And he wasn't cheating either. No.

Right? Like he wasn't tut. There's the extra. No. No, no controversy there, which is nice for once. I did get to see

the curling gold medal on the weekend. Do we need a summit, though, and the hockey here? If you got outplayed, I'd say yes. I didn't feel that way

with the Mitz. But that's coming up. Our thrilling and scintillating reactions to the wings and flames. Well, you're going to do that breakdown in Italy, Venezuela.

I can't wait for it. Yeah. And I'll try to contain my outrage. Okay, do your best. I know it's the most should something arise. With your Venezuelan heritage, of course. You kind of nailed the, what was it, the devil's game?

You're like, I don't know. This is the one. Feels like where the flames, what's your? I feel strongly that Detroit has the best chance at success. Okay. Never mess with Rhett's gut. Last game of a trip. Detroit needs it badly.

Detroit needs it. Flames have to be. Give me out of here. Ethical tank, voice. And I mean, it's hard to bet against Oloffson and his heartbeat. Right. You can set your watch to that. There you go.

We're going to do. Are we doing a thing, Jack? We have more superchance first. Oh, my goodness gracious. Gotta go put a Victor Oliveson anytime goal down. Working man. Nothing will ever be. Oh, I was us.

Working man, that's called a skullet. Because you have very minimal hair, even some glare off the top. And then a just gorgeous moth. the back. That came to light during a NHL All-Star game. It was phenomenal. A skills competition and there you see it. It's party on the back. Yeah. But it's also kind of party

in the mid to front area. That's a good time. That's a new party there. That's different than now. Do we think that Al knew what was going on back there? If you look in the mirror, I don't know that you can see that. Because if it, depending. Jack? You think he knows? I don't know.

know I don't think he gives a shit no and he would rip darts this guy was in the he didn't care there was only one ally of Frady I had met him around 2012 or 13 he was in some stick business for a while yeah he was he was not feeling the vibe of the trade show I don't know that he chose that life I think it chose him yeah I was a tough best big time rip the puck jack like ripped in one of the hardest shots like him and al McKinnis probably the hardest two guys to shoot it with wood stick era one of the most lethal just a bomb from the point and as you say darts beers whatever 100 mile an hour slapers j c was yeah let's yeah that hair was him oh that was him and you know what looking back it's good

he wasn't playing today because that's his era yeah he was the correct darts and beers he was at the right time. Fellas, Pinder is right for once. The emojis. The baseball call was bad. I was just really

into the game and it's shitty when you were in. I don't debate for one second that the baseball call was bad. It's where he puts his flag in the ground that always has me interesting. Yeah, the level of outrage. And he's not wrong. You could just get it right.

I mean, you have the tech. There's no question. It's real. It's not a screw the alps. It's really hard. It's the, you can see they've been tracking it for decades. It's really hard when a guy throws 102 at the top of the zone and then has a breaking pitch at 90 at the bottom of the zone. That's why you made the ABS system to help them.

You have that box on TV for 20 years. Faining outrage. There's Paula Payne. No pain. We don't want to ask even anymore. Don't ask you. Tough. Any updates.

It's awesome. It can't be. good. I'm beyond nervous right now. I'm quite worried. Resigned? No, I have to, I have to admit, I've just kind of, you've always kind of been the connection there. It's conduit. The conduit to our, our friend.

Social media, email, and we've gone to even darker places to look for them. Does the social media still exist? Messages have been sent. Okay, so he's still, and received, but not read. Has he posted anything? No. Just start, okay.

So yeah, we're, I hope Trigger's okay. I hope Ozzy Brad's doing great. I hope he's enjoying. Maybe he's just, you know, he can't handle a rebuild. He might be off the grid for a bit. He just might need to. Maybe his pride won't allow him to. Yeah, maybe.

He's into the re-biggle. But yes, a, uh, the last update we had was Kachuk going back to back over McJ. And he was, he had strong feelings. Yeah. goody to check in, though, paid. It is, yeah, about to get, about to be a bummer or a downer,

but there was the only one that guy's hilarious, so I hope we hear from him soon. John Deere that one time. Oh, yeah. Welcome. Damn. Thanks a lot, Jack.

Energized, five bucks. On behalf of the Sends fans, we need Pallory to win. Jack's saying the same thing, because the penguinos are in that neighborhood, too. Let's go flame. Jack, how dare you? You have a job to get done here.

I don't want it to be, I don't want to be in the driver's seat here. I want it taken out of our hands. I want Chicago winning. Yes. I don't want any lack of judgment on Huska's part to influence our draft position. They're doing a great job, two for March. Just keep it going, boys. Three wins in March is, that's your quote.

That's, right? That's two in April. There's five more. What he likes to show off? You're allowed three. Or three more through the year. We can maybe do that tomorrow. We'll walk through the skid and find. Oh, it's a tough game.

We'll find the losses. Usually you find the, a year ago, it's like, where are we? How do you get to 97? How do you get the, how do you stay right where you're at? That's it for Super Chats. That's all. Thank you, folks. That money going to the U.

Centers of Calgary. We'll do a little tankathon. This is right where you wanted to be. I think we all agree. It's going to be hard to fall. as far as Vancouver has fallen and they continue to tumble. It's right there. Jack had an unusual request.

Well, we need to figure out what's lucky, what's not. Like, we need to be prepared for the actual lottery. That's right. And that's part of this. That's what this exercise is.

And it used to the odds. And it has not gone well. Yeah, we hit it once in like probably 25. Yeah, but that's probably, that's the math. Man.

Is that math? No, one in 25 would be 4%. But yes, it's definitely, if we hit one here, we'd probably be tracking. They've generally been in that 9.5% range. Yeah, they haven't always been at 13.

There was some 6.5. 4 and 5. I don't remember the last time we haven't dropped. Like, it feels like every single time we... 2 to 4, 2 to 4, 2 to 4. That's a stupid system. Or even 1, yeah. 13.6% chance.

And again, we're just putting our faith into this website, which could be Pinders' kids sitting at home without a parent right now. It is. How hard could it be with A. to come up with something like this. Oh my, come on. F your hat. The Leafs win, the draft lottery,

move to the number one spot. That really screws the burns is what that does, boys. Also, yeah, this Florida pick is the Seth Jones trade we were talking about earlier. Yeah. With Spencer Knight as well. Yeah. That's top 10. Flames would also pick at 19.

The Vegas pick is where that sits today. So that's another wrinkle to all of this that we can pay attention. Vegas could just. So 3 and 19. You're right. I had erroneously said that it was the Marshand pick. That's next summer. Last summer was the Flames Kachuk trade.

This summer is now the Seth Jones trade, you're saying, which makes sense for Chicago. And next year will be the Marchand first. But what happens if it's top 10 protected? And they just punt it a year and it goes unprotecting. It's typically what we see. That's what the conditions were on the Colorado pick that came back for Cadre. So the flames would pick third. Hey.

Top three. Top three is awesome. Top three. Three takes, I've said it all along. Three takes pressure off of Conrad. And in this room, I feel like there's great consensus. When you read the scouting community and talk to, there is not a hard one here. There are different players that different teams value and needs are different.

A big somewhere between Ekblad and Petrangelo right shot. defenseman that's got a bit of nasty is going to be higher on some teams list than McKenna. Oh, it's fine. Like you might get the guy you want to three is my point. I'm not suggesting you will, but it's not crazy. There is that much, there is that lack of a consensus. It's not like last year. Everyone who knew Shaver was going to want.

I hate being frustrated with all you dummies. It's not a one year fix. It's a two year deal. No, it's absolute least. It's a two year deal. Next year, as vitally important. important as this year bottoming out. Oh, I know. That's that's Mike the roster for.

And what you do here is you get a top three this year and a top three next year. And then you get a forward and a D at the higher end of things. You got second first rounders in both years and you have two of the first round 28 and you've got those four seconds this year. I would just see in that big centerman out of Quebec. I don't think you're going to be upset if you can get their hands on them. They're all good players. But if they get a player that's Jake Gensel, that's a good player.

Yep. Alex Petrava's a good player. Yep. It's not Maclin Celebrini. It's not, you know. But in Macklin Celebrini's draft, we didn't think he was going to be Maclin Celebrity. No, it's fair.

We thought Bedard was going to be that level of star. And you'd love a Bedard right now and you'd be going bananas over Celebrini. We are literally guessing what 17-year-old boys are going to look like as 25-year-old bet which is important to remember we only have to wait eight years yeah then we'll know yeah that pick that conroy got for cadre that kid's going to take his learners where is connie these days jack how was the show today very enjoyable fellas i i thought it was going to be one of those kind of monday shows where it was quick but well it's just that exciting news about the city of Jim Browning of Edmonton.

It puts some lead in our pencil early. It kind of powered us right through. So congrats to Edmonton on getting the... This just in. A study of Edmontonians lists Edmonton as best city ever. Three? Yeah. They get the... Calgary gets seven games.

Oh, I'll let go. It's great. It was hot. No, maybe it's rare that we do take runs at Edmonton, so maybe we... Yeah, I just, you know, every once in a while. Today while we're right there. Cassie tomorrow, we'll have Flames, Red Wings reactions. They walk deep into that capital city.

We'll see what other cities are really. I've got to go to Edmonton, clearly. Yeah. Ed days. Where else do we, Ed Fest? See you, buddy.
