Hello everybody. Welcome to the show on a Friday. You listen to the lyrics there. It's like,

so who are we saying? I think we're keeping losers. I like to think that that's them saying

all of us. We're all effing losers. The collective, the royal way. Yeah, it's not like we're sitting

here on some high and mighty perch, some pedestal looking down upon others and saying, you, you effing

losers. We're all losers together, people. That's right. Stick together. It's the big bunch of

big times of need. How's our sick loser doing? I'm a little worried about him. I'm dying today.

I'm way worse than yesterday. I sound worse. He's sound horrible. Hey Jack, kiss my ass.

How many call over? Let's go for a drink. Oh, a lot of that idea.

Is he weakened? Is it a little Edmonton? No, no. I'm going to go to Calgary. We call it shit.

Now you got to go to the Amos. That's no good. Oh, retro. Hello. It's not good. It's not good.

to be responsible for those as well. Yeah, I mean, yeah, less so. Less so, I guess. But here we are

in the suddenly chilly McLeod law LLP studios. McLeod law, we had the heat pumping in here yesterday.

It was hot. I had to crack open windows sunny. Who loose guy loose guy city rep?

It's okay. It's like city. It's like a sad country song out there today.

There's clouds. You're in the sky. Dog died. Sometimes I got a shoe in dogs.

Can't have sun every day. Something like that. Is it bad out? I haven't been outside. It's pissy.

I saw that. Yeah, pissy pissy rain chilly. Yeah, why are you so pissy? Why are you so pissy?

Yeah. Yeah.

So anyway, that's what I'm going on. Yeah, it'd be a soup day, stew day. What's the weekend though?

Because if you make chances are you make chili or stew or so you're going to have leftovers.

Need some time. Don't don't be sure it's cited on it.

No, it's going to be chilly here for a little bit. What?

Tomorrow high like not not freezing cold. But high of eight, high seven, high of two,

high of eight. Yeah, it's yeah, it's flat fucked right? Yeah, we're yeah.

There's a zero and foggy. It says here there's a yellow advisory for fog. I mean,

Oh, I hope there's a shoe so they're heading north.

Goodness gracious. Yellow moderate.

Hey, if I'm a candidate settle the fuck down. It's pretty wise foggy out. Life or property?

And or yellow advisory fog severity moderate possible threat to as far as

Traffable be hazardous in some location rat. There might be a significant impact on rough hour traffic.

Rough hour rush hour.

Fire mechanic take just, you know what? Mix, mix one in, mix a water in, just cool down. Just hit

a temple with bare mechanic settle down. We got a lot of to go on today. We got a trigger coming up.

I believe, believe Drake's going to join us coming up here. It is a Calgary Flames game day.

Get your helmet on. The two-time rating. Defending Stanley Cup champion. Back to back.

Florida Panthers are in town tonight to take on the Calgary Flakes.

They're doing God's work. They sure are. They're doing great work out there. We're proud of them.

Always good to see old friends. Good to see AJ Greer yesterday. Look at this.

There they are. Yeah. Yeah. Brown dog for a second. Yeah, I freaked out. I'm like, is he all right?

Love. Wow. Yes. Oh, retro.

What's chunk? Think of that. The big cat. Has it get intimidated? Got to size them up.

Yeah, this is himself a little bit. Yeah, you're big prick. You should.

Uh, cats are in town. Look out. Cats in the cradle. That's what they say.

The, uh, the Panteros, the Panthers, the Floridians themselves.

Four-nothing win last night in Edmonton over the Oilers.

Well, the chicks take the Panteros when they win on the road, Dean. That's what happens.

I heard that. Yeah. Your buddy, Bob, or 21, save shut out.

This 53rd career shut out.

Jesus, that feels like a lot. It's a lot. It may. They may hate Edmonton more than we do.

I just love that in a lost year when nothing went right and their captain hasn't played

a single game, they still just mop Edmonton. Just looking across social media last night,

it was, it was humbling for the hawks up there. Oh, it's, uh, very uninspired, very flat.

You know, it was just not, uh, way, way. It was a way. Yeah. The, uh,

and the Panthers, I mean, they're just okay right now. They're okay.

They're okay. I mean, like right now, like I was looking this morning, they, uh,

they have around 500 here last four and two in their last six. Sure.

With that prior to that, they were two and nine. They're out of the playoffs.

So like, they're just okay right now. Yeah. And made, uh, fairly easy work of the Oilers.

AJ Greer is in the top nine. That's all you need to know. God bless him.

Fourth liner. I don't want to get this to dig to it. It's more about the Panthers and the Flans.

It's not about the Oilers, but they did play last night. The Oil? Yeah. Right. So I don't want to get

that franchise still hanging around it. When McDavid, which he was last night in a shuttle

loss, when he is held off the score sheet. Yeah. Yeah. This season, the Oilers are O-10 and two.

Huh. You can stick that right in my veins, do you know?

Yeah. And I don't want to make it about them. It's not about them.

O-10 and two. Yeah. I'm right. That down. Look at that. He's writing it down.

Like on one hand, there's only 12 games that he's been held off the score sheet. But on the other,

but on the other, they're they're one zero. They're fucking brutal without it.

Yeah. It's, it's weird because it almost feels like they just won a lottery and don't know how to

run a hockey team, but think they're good. Doesn't it feel like that sometimes? What is he thinking?

Get me the out of here. Because, you know, somebody he's he'd be reading that stat somewhere.

He would come up saying, are we O-10 and two?

The hell am I doing here? On health. Jesus.

Even he's like, hello, Jesus. O-10, it's fellas. Fellas, O-10, O-10, not one,

nine or two. If I'm not lifting, I take one day off in 82. No.

Well, it's not about them. It's about the flames of the panties. That's a real shame. I'm

broken up about that. I figured you might be. Yeah. I figured you might be. The flames,

they beat the path. There's already this season. That sounds fake, but I'll accept it. Oh, remember

that at all. Oh, yeah. They did that old Southeast swing where they usually go in three.

November 28th, as we harken. Good harkening on a Friday. Yeah. Five, three was the final score.

The Panthers. They were up to nothing early. Was this the coolie thing where we let the first two

shots in? Two nothing early. Two fifty eight in. Then Devon Cooley said,

Fuck you guys. Lock the darts. Thirty eight saves, stood in his head. Flames get the first NHL

goal from Cooznetz off. Then it's some weager, some frosts, some cadre. Martianne would make it.

Four to three. Joel Fairby said, is that an empty net? I love those things. It was count. And they

count the same. So I'm going to put it right in there. Five, three, final. Do your boy. Yeah.

So that'll mean a lot tonight. Was that a revenge? I'll be on their mind.

Was that American Thanksgiving then? Was that when we were sitting at the house here?

November 28th might have been. And that's close. Yeah. I'm not sure.

I thought I had enough detail there. I don't know what day of the week it was. No,

but we did. It's been banged up at Red Soes. Jack was sifting through the laundry. We had a great

day at Red Soes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I said, we know this about the Panthers.

Not about Jack and panty droids, but we know this about the Panthers, banged up.

Then I've been a banged up kind of year. They're dinged up, do you know?

They got banged up after the cup win. In the cup. Yes.

And then in the cup win afterwards at the elbow room, they were banged up for a long time.

And the season started. It's like, ooh, Sasha went down in three seasons.

It's not. We haven't started games yet. Barca was out for, ooh, that's not good.

Like a chuck missed a bunch of time. Didn't listen back to what Christmas. Yeah. After Christmas.

Um, Sam Reinhart, one of the, one of the Panthers who has been healthy.

Leads the team in goals, assists, points, power play goals,

power play points, shorthanded goals, everything, game winning goals and shots on goal.

And he's probably having it down here. Yeah. I think it's probably okay. He's about 15

of the year, but it tells you he's got 29 goals. Oh, uh, fine. Jeez. Yeah. He's been,

that's been a good year for Bennett. He, I think last night, it's now a career high in points

for him this year. He's got 25 goals, which ties a career high, but he's got up to, uh,

I think he hit 53 last night. So that's a new high for him. I'm here with the eggs.

So yeah, it signs the big deal. It's like, oh, it's, that's not going to be money well spent.

And I, that's early, but yeah, it's early. It's so far so good. But yeah, the Panthers,

the run is, uh, the run is going to come to an end. There'll be a new Stanley Cup champion this year.

Are we all on board? That's safe to say. There's certain things I need to have, but yeah.

I'll accept uh, 30 other teams. Right. Yeah. Not so much the Panthers. Yeah. This is what I'm kind of

getting on. Yeah. So what about this flames team? Uh, right, you're into the Kookie science.

What is that Mars mission start? Cause I'm going to sign a little application for Vic Olives in

there. Oh, you don't like Vic Olives? And he's a shooter. I just think you need to start.

Anyone can explore the intergalactic universe and such. I feel like Vic's the guy for us. He can

go away. Slick Vic. I don't know what to make of the flames. The flames, uh, they got to be careful

here. We can't be climbing the standings. Here's the thing. They've got the three wins. They've

hit the quota. Don't be show off now. We were allowing you three wins in March. There's a lot of

march. Lot of lots of worried that the Panthers would have any lost season had a maybe some

emotional attachment to beating the Oilers. Yeah. That's, uh, that's, that was big. That was the

last night. I just worry that maybe tonight it might be a flat-fuck Friday, as they say.

Hmm. I also have the sphere. By the way, what are you hammering? You get Ivermectin or all of it.

Yeah. All of it really. There was vitamins A through Z. Yeah. All not that I am not ingesting

and shooting into my body. It's really helping. Are you at all concerned that, uh, it's like

Jack and Nashville, that you're able to get to these levels of illness with how, I mean, you're,

you're a science experiment. I would be worse. Like I said, I think I would actually be worse if

I wasn't doing all of it. What did you change from yesterday? You seem a lot. I did not sleep

last night, Ryan. I had a terrible sleep. The sleep is a, it's integral. I can't just breathe.

Couldn't breathe it. You're too nervous about having drag around today or what?

Wow. I love hearing drag stories. I wish with drags would be part of our, uh, candy or

chocolate bracket. Oh, we could show. We'll get us thoughts. No question about it. Yeah, we'll get us

thoughts. Um, yeah, I'd, I'd wolf time. Coolie last time. I think probably you're attempting to

sell this game in some way, shape or form. Well, we have, we're here to inform you decide.

No, I just, uh, we're all on the same page. Everyone is. I've not met a single person that's

not on this page, right? And I don't want to cheer a little bit. It's like, okay, well,

you could have handily beaten St. Louis the other night. Yeah, those, those,

this a lot of goals, they were all in and some of them were quite nice. That blizzed video judge,

uh, the goal, right? The, the Faribi goal was a nice goal, Sharon Govich, nice shot. There were

some nice goals. It could have been a four one hockey game very easily.

Settle down. Settle down. You had a fun night the other night. You didn't want to went out. You

had some wings. Maybe after that game, wings had some wings on a Wednesday. Just settle back into,

just, it's jury out. It's, it's raining. You're not going out tonight. Panthers got to get on a

plane and leave afterwards. Anyway, they may as well take the wind and go where they go on.

Vancouver. I think you're going back home. They're done. I think they were in Vancouver already. Yeah.

Yeah. I like kind of this jib. Anyone go under this game tonight?

Reinhardt is out or at least has not played on this road trip. Which one? Cole or, uh,

Sam? Not cool. I'll think probably both. Um, calls it in the fourth line. Uh, I'm thinking of

Schwint. I'm thinking of, yeah, there's two Reinhardts because Schwint is injured. There's two

calls and two Reinhardts. It's so hard to keep up. Yeah. Um, just don't get, don't get cute.

Play hard, entertain the fans. It's a Friday night. Are you going to get an all, uh,

beard up? No, I took care of that last night. You did, eh?

All right. Home alone. He did.

Jack says, yes, he did. Were you, were you part of that part of it? Or were you getting

updates? Are we kidding me? Regularly. Yeah. Jack and I know more about each other than we let

you guys know about us. I believe the text was, I should not be at the ship right now. Right now.

Right now. It was 106 with a table full of drinks. Are you not parenting solo right now? Yes,

scene. Zip it. Brian met some boys from Montana. Yeah, there's some losers up from Montana

on their spring break. They're so excited about cheap drinks where you had to entertain them.

Yep. Didn't have to, but you know, it's another time to just look like what is it? I was

out with Commissioner boobs. We were having a time. Oh, what a guy. He's still drunk.

Let's go to the insider hot. Yeah, it's probably good idea. See, no way to go to this.

This is not a way to go to drags. No, we're sorry, Dr. We don't want to circle you into this.

And then it was one o'clock and I was at the ship, but it's like, who's at home with my kids right now?

All right, Zip it. Time for the insider hotline, a proud presentation of Crystal Waters plumbing and

Crystal clear Calgary.com. As we check in, there is with the insider Darren Drager.

Hello, Jigs. He got me boys. He got me. We got you. Were you out of the ship and anchor at

104 AM or? No, is that just one of us on screen? Well, it feels like I was because I mean,

I'm not a tech savvy guy even a little bit. And I'm surprised you can hear me because I can only

kind of hear you. And I've got some computer audio nonsense going on here that I like the next

thing that's going to happen is this laptop is going through the window. That's what's going to happen.

Maybe I was. Maybe I was in the bar until two in the morning. It kind of feels like I mean,

it's just a viewer or a drag. Do you want to take a minute? Because we can hear you fly.

Okay, now we're good. Your asses. This is going full of labyrinthous because

Peter Labyrinthous, we love. Friend of the show. Let it. Anything with like a chip in it.

Not good. Yeah. Lubos struggled with the technology. Walks was another one. It was so yeah,

it was tough. Yeah, it was tough to handle. So you were at the general manager's meetings.

How did you do it? I was. Yeah, it's been on you the whole time. I heard it was not good weather.

Now, weather was lousy. I mean, it's better than what I'm looking at right now in southern Ontario,

but Wednesday was near Hurricane Force winds. Teaming rain. All the nonsense. But you know what?

You're in a nice resort. You know, it's it's not heavy lifting. Even though we actually had some

stuff to talk about, which can be a tad unusual with these meetings. But once he had all that

cleaned up by mid afternoon, it was warm enough to at least straddle up to the pool bar,

where there were several unnamed NHL general managers. So. Right. Yeah. And it's tough to

recognize. Yeah. Yeah. You can always tell the guys who are locks in the playoffs.

They're they're great, man. They're they're golden. And then you've got the guys who are not

even anywhere close to the cut line. And they're okay. They're disappointed. But,

you know, there's no stress. What are you going to do? You'll deal with that in the offseason.

The guys that are in the fight right now to try and claw their way in.

They're nowhere near that pool bar. They're. You can't be. You can't be.

The rules trying to keep the wolves at bay. That's what I did see. Greg Conroy wasn't one of

the several that I saw at the pool bar. But I did see Connie a couple of times. You guys

are going to be impressed. I saw him when we checked in. He was right behind me and checked in

on Sunday night. And then the next time I saw him, he was in the gym. And he was working out.

Well, he's walking. He needs. He needs. I was going to say, were you were you spotting him or was

he spotting you tarps off? How do we do in here? No, I see. It's kind of a weird setup. It's one

of those hotels where all right, you've got the ocean and the pools and everything on this side.

And it's a glass hallway. So you walk through. You look to your left or look to your right. You

see the water and the pools. You look to the other side. And there is a run of treadmills and

steppers and all of that. So it's kind of the walk of shame. And every time I walk through there,

you've got because most of the managers are pretty active still, right? They're all the majority

of them are former athletes, former NHL players. And they're still after it. So I walk through

there, are waddle through there. And these guys are all grinded in a way. And I'm like, okay,

this is a walk of shame. Now, with I remember, it was not that long ago, that it was actually the

old dog, Jeff O'Neill, I think on his Twitter gave you some praise and say, hey, you know what?

Saw drags crushing it on the on the treadmill this morning. And I mean, he had a fair clip too.

Well, don't drags doing some. Why? Just complete BS. Is that right?

None of it. And even though people were sour that there was a rating system and they weren't

being named to any of Jeff O'Neill's ratings, the dog wasn't in that gym. No,

no, dogs. You might have been, you might have been in the diner across the street, but he wasn't in

the gym. The dog. I find some of the stuff that comes, I'll do respect it. I pinder kind of

gets into it. And some of the stuff that comes out of port of governors or GM's meetings,

it's like, oh, boy, I just, yeah, I kind of glaze over his, okay, because at the end of the day,

it just feels like nothing's going to happen. It felt like it was, there was some tension this week.

We heard about some tension between maybe a general manager or two and Gary Bettman,

whether it be players, you know, hits to the head, the playoffs and the playoff rankings,

Billy Garen's kind of, yeah, not going to feel great to be the third best team in the league and

be out after round one potentially. No. Is that kind of, did it, did that just become kind of

public knowledge this time? Or is there some contention when these things get together?

I think it's more about, it just became public. And I don't think that there, it was hot or

contentious. I don't, I, you know, I mean, the guy we're talking about here is Eric Tulski

of the Carolina Hurricanes. And my understanding is he may have questioned the consistency around

rule 48, you know, contact with the head. And I think he was pretty much told that by the commissioner,

we're calling it the way we've called it. And nothing has changed in that regard.

So I don't think it was hot or overly contentious, but there was a point of order. I think that

was established. There was ample decision or discussion on goal interference. I mean, to a point

we're all kind of confused because, you know, one game you'll see this, another game you'll see

that and the two are similar, but they're called completely differently. And that's almost a

staple of GM meetings to be fair. And I don't think it was hotly debated because I think hockey

operations just, you know, clarifies by saying, look, there's, there are no two goal interference

incidents that are the same. They may look similar, but they're not identically the same. They

can't be. And because of that, it boils down to a judgment call. So there was, there was some

discussion on that. You know, kind of what, what fueled some of the, the fire going in was the

Radco good as five game suspension right before the GM meetings, right? Because then George

Perales came under fire because Judm all day for the agent went after him, went after the

Department of Player Safety, Connor McDavid, you know, came out just before the meetings and he

indicated that he at least would like some questions answered and a little bit more work done

to see if there is a better means of, of, of dispensing supplemental disciplines. So those were the

primary things. And you guys can walk through any direction you want here, but what didn't get as

much attention as it deserved. And it's not a sexy item, but it's a big one because they spent

two plus days talking about it is the fact that 19 year old players from the Canadian hockey leagues

will be able to play in the American League next year. And again, two full days, those general

managers talked about it. And they gave it that amount of weight out of respect to the CHL.

And we're not having this conversation. If the NCAA doesn't open its, you know, guidelines to,

yeah, to allow CHL players to play division one, right? So what does a 19 year old do if he's been

in major junior hockey for three years, he's drafted by the NHL. And he doesn't think that there's

a whole lot of growth for him, developmentally in junior hockey. Well, he's going to play college,

right? He'll have that option now. Or wait a minute, the National Hockey League who owns your

playing rights professionally. Now they have a spot for you at the American Hockey League. Why,

why is that such a bad thing? So we don't know how many players, how many 19 year olds per team

yet are going to be allowed to play. I don't think we're going to see a flood of 19 year olds

to the American League. I don't. But I do think that they're working on the details still.

I want to see what that framework looks like. But I do think that it is a step of progression.

I'm kind of hesitating in saying that because I've been a big believer in the Canadian Hockey League

by entire life. And I'm not changing now. But I think it's just a stomach and it's bread from

changes at other levels of hockey. I could dive into this for hours with you. And I think we'd

bore everyone. But I think that you can argue the opposite way too. And I don't know if I'm

making sense when I say that is it. The WHO love it. I'm supposed to go to Saskatoon, see Chaser

tomorrow, Mark Walton, their new retirement jerseys, blah blah blah. There's no reason the WHO

needs five seasons of your life. 16 year old kids. You shouldn't be able to play in a junior

hockey at 15 at all. You don't need to. There are kids that can do it, but it's not a necessity

for their development. At 16, you can play, but you still don't need to. And if you push that talent

down and keep it together for longer, then people aren't racing to get out of there. But because

we splintered and taken the top kids, now everyone else thinks, well, I got to be a top kid,

so I got to leave the league that's really good for me. So I don't think that opening it up

is a bad idea. But I think slowing kids down is a good idea too. There's no one to listen,

but it's a race. And a lot of kids suffer because it is a race. And you don't need it to be a race.

I think it's better off your point on the younger players is a valid one. And

multiple general managers raised that as an area of concern. That, yeah, let's look at the

western hockey league. You bring up the Saskatoon blades. The western hockey league for years has

pushed back at these younger kids, you know, and said, no, we're not there. You're 15. Now,

go play mentioned hockey, do whatever you 15, whatever they call it now, all of that. And the

fear among managers, NHL managers is that the CHL has become is going to become almost like a

tier two system where the league will be younger, right? So the western league, the Ontario league,

the Quebec league, now they'll have those kids at 16, 17 and maybe 18, but how long

before things loosen up even a little bit and not just Gavin McKenna goes to college hockey.

Maybe you, you look at that two ways. Maybe 15, very good draft eligible players go into college

hockey. You know, the hope is that no, it's the opposite. Gavin McKenna in medicine at this

year gets what? 125 points. Well, I did 50. Yeah. You know, so he's going to finish in Penn

State with what? 60. Now, obviously, it's just that much harder of a league to play in. You're playing

against 21, 22, 23 year old men. And there are some who, you know, McKenna's likely going first

over all. But if you're an 18 year old, are you willing to risk that you're not going to be

as dynamic at college? So there's all kinds of layers to this entire feeder system conversation.

There is all kinds of layers and it goes back even further to minor hockey where I'm going to

bring it up again because I'm a believer in it. The Americans play year of birth, play year of

birth. Yeah. You don't need to combine these years. Right. Kids going through it and you get kids

are physically able and it's a, it's a mess for them and it's, it's, there's enough kids out there.

You do not need two years of, of, of to make a team. You don't need to combine them. Yeah,

we're not sure it on players. That's fair. Yeah. Anyway, I don't. Yeah. Back to junior. I was

Saskatoon. The blades put it on. Chaser's going to be there. That's awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

Where did you play in that old barn? Or was that past? No, I watched the old barn. I used to go

watch Chaser and Twister and all those bastards. Yeah. Kevin Kaminsky and Jeff Hodgers once fought

in that old building. Like at least twice in one game. They might have been 16, 17 at that age.

And I mean, I happen to be there because I was going to school. I think it was like 86 or 87,

something like that. And I, to the wildest flights I've ever seen Wolverines attacking each other.

Oh my God. That was a great. And we're talking. This is ancient history and a very small

percentage of the people know what the hell we're talking about. But Kevin Kaminsky,

how old would he have been at 16 or 17 pound for pound the most fearless guy maybe ever to play

in the Western League? Yeah. Just bananas. Like killer. You get the nickname. Yeah. It's not bad,

you know, you earned that. Hey, his family has a, their small town arena in Churchbridge,

Saskatchewan is, is named after the Kaminsky family. Yeah. Kaminsky. Yeah.

We're back to the 19 year old rule just for a second. Cause yeah. In this, in this city,

and like that rule has been a pet peeve mind forever. And I get that it's a major developmental

artery. It's just less than less percentage of the NHL has passed through it. I see the leverage

changing whatever. That's that. But we're watching Zane Perek here who is one of the top prospects

in the sport. And he compiles 30 goals and 100 points as a demon in the old. And to your point

earlier, there's nothing left to learn. You're probably only going to collect bad habits if you

go back to what Saginaw or whatever. This would have been the perfect year to place this kid in the

American hockey league and play. Well, and once he signs, he can't go. But yes, if he'd known that

if that was laid out, he might not have signed. Right. And the rules remark you at that time.

That's a fair point by you. But if this guy could be playing top-air minutes in the American league

for 70 games, that's the thing. I think this is one of those situations where the player,

Saginaw, everybody would look at it and say, well, this is just clearly makes the most sense.

It's just there's going to come at a time where it's, well, that kid wouldn't is not necessarily

better off playing there than he would be here. I mean, it's clear as day with with Perek,

but it's always how. And so what you have is like one of the most important pieces in this, you know,

architecture worked the Connery has done overhauling this roster. And he's not ready for the NHL

in a lot of ways. I think you can see what's going to theoretically make him special. But you also

just were like, well, he's not strong enough and time and space are not there for him. And it just

feels like that almost a lost season developmentally. And then what are your top prospects that's worth

millions of dollars to this franchise for what he could potentially be? It just feels like a lost

season. Like, I think this is a very interesting thing. Yeah. Or what if you have, and again,

we have to that eventually they're going to publicize the framework of what the agreement is between

the NHL and the CHL specific to this issue. You know, what if you had a deadline or a moving mark?

Okay. We all know that they've got to play nine 10 games, right? The NHL level and then your

entry level contract comes in a question. But what if then it shifted to the American league,

where you had until maybe the world juniors? Sure. That comes your cut off. And then the NHL club

dislike. So you go from your NHL nine 10 games to the American league, you played out until the

world juniors. And then the NHL club decides, okay, well, you slept a little bit in your last 10

games of the year, the American league before playing at the world juniors, or you slept period.

And we want you to go back to major junior because we want you to feel good,

dominate in the remainder of the year and then come back and we're all ready to go. I mean,

all of those things, those parameters could be employed here. But there is, there's one outlier.

And I think that this also has encouraged the NHL to act on this as quickly as they're going to

in time for next year. You guys know Prodash, Alexei Prodash who plays with Washington capitals.

His younger brother is a 19 year old playing in the American Hockey League and doing very, very well.

But he's a 19 year old playing there because he came out of the USHL. So now you've got again,

so the national Hockey League, and it isn't bullying, I think what they're trying to do,

I know what they're trying to do, to remove, think, I know what they're trying to do.

They're trying to align all of their feeder systems to march as one. And so this is why,

all of a sudden you get people who conjure up the idea of, hey, maybe the USHL and the CHL

will merge one day. You know, how interesting would that be? And man, throw that at the president

of the CHL, Dan McKenzie, and look out because you're getting a blast coming back. They're so protective.

But they do have to align the rules and what you can and can do. It's a double standard.

Like, gridden's the same age as Perrek, and he's allowed to play in the year this year

because he was drafted out of the USHL. You played one year and the people wasn't drafted out of it.

And Perrek was in the, oh, isn't allowed. It's just like, to your point, yeah, they're the same

birth year. They'll figure it out. That's what it is, right? And it's just frustrating that it's not,

it's a double standard. This kid can, this kid can. The question I, wow, the only other thing I

question I do have is, yes, they want to align it in the USHL and the CHL. They can probably have

some pretty good sway or the colleges willing to listen. And is that part, is that part of the

alignment that you're discussing or you're mentioning? Like, because the colleges to me are like,

we don't give a shit. We're, I don't think that's ever going to change. Yeah. So you're, but that's

just it. Like the NHL wants to streamline and have the pipeline work together. Yes, the colleges

are kind of outliers where they're not going to fall in line without some real convincing.

I don't look at it at a college anytime. That's the difference. No, I mean, the MCAA is going to

march to the beat of its owner. They're just going, yeah, we're going to do whatever we want to do.

I think that, you know, when, when the process was developing whereby major junior players could

go to the NCAA, the hope of the expectation was that they'd develop relationships, right?

From one major junior team to a specific college. So it does become almost a developmental chain,

right? You keep this kid for three years, maybe four, and then we'll take him at 1920.

I'm not so sure it's going to play out that way. And it didn't take long. Did it for it not to

play out that way with Gavin McKenna going to Penn State as an 18 year old.

Let's shift gears a little bit. I'm curious now. I think we were talking maybe yesterday

of the day before that just the whole, the doldrums, the dog days, the Olympic break, you come back so

many games, we're playing every other night, but you're starting to get that math. It's the way,

at least how it works for me. It's okay. It's a 68 gauge. Once you get to 72, oh, we got 10 left.

Now you can really start to kind of compare, cart, pet, whatever it is,

compartmentalize it. Some teams need to get their shit together. And it's like, we really do need

to hurry. And some other teams are like, we're out a bit of a wobble here, but we're fine. Don't

don't worry about it. I think of it's, I think of it's team like Vegas. They lose again. They

they're not playing well at all right now. I don't think they're going to miss. But it's like,

is this how you're going to go into the playoffs? The oilers probably the same way.

Then there's some other teams Columbus. They can't, they couldn't, they didn't want the

Olympic break. And they can't get the playoffs here fast enough because right now they're in it

for one, but they they're just not losing games. What teams were you the most right now as we're

in that neighborhood of 12-ish games across the board away from the things started?

Well, I'm under a bottle off for sure. They kind of, they'll take a step forward and then

they'll shoot themselves in the foot. Like last night, there were incredible swings, particularly

in the Eastern Conference with the wins and the losses last night. And for me, it looks now like

the Ottawa Senators are just flat out going to run out of runway. And that's too bad because

that's a team that for the most part this year has played well enough to be in the Eastern

Conference playoff equation. They may not be. And if they don't qualify, then you know the knives

are going to come out because Steve's day else is going to, he's going to have some explaining to

do and it's not his fault. You know, I mean, he acquired Linus Almark paid a price, you know,

extended the goalie, thinking that all right, we've got to prove in that mind you're here, our

goalie problems are over. And yet pretty much all this season, the instability in goal is plagued

the Ottawa Senators. So that's a team that I wonder about Detroit because of the injuries that

they had to lark and and cop, you know, will they find a way like they did last night, you know,

I guess we'll see. But they're kind of on the edge. I know Winnipeg was was turning into what was

going to be arguably one of the better second half stories we've had in a while because they

not long that long with Winnipeg jets were 11 points out of the playoff spot. And you know,

then all of a sudden they've clawed their way all the way back to four. And then they took it in

the teeth last night. So there's a number of teams. I mean, the reason Gary Batman keeps pushing

back at any sort of scheduling tinkering or change is because of what we're experiencing, right?

Incredible playoff races, right down to game 82. And then you get just off the charts, playoff

intensity in the first round and often in the second round, you know, the sad reality and the

cost of doing that is that two or three or four really good teams get bounced in the first two

rounds. And that's why we continue to push for a better way. But it's impossible to argue against

the playoff entertainment that we're already feeling now. Do you see any real opportunity for

change because it feels like Gary's dug his heels in on that? I would say there isn't. And I know

that the general manager executive committee raised it one more time on Sunday,

informally in an informal meeting, not all managers are there with Batman and daily.

It was basically glossed over and they got the same sort of response that they always get

from the commissioner. No, it's not broken. There's no need to fix it. I guess the one thing that

I always come back to though is because I hear from owners, I hear from general managers,

I hear from players that they all want the idea of change thoroughly discussed, not speculated on.

Let's have a discussion about it. Who wouldn't want to see rather than 84 regular season games?

Wouldn't you like to see 80 or 82 leave it the way it is and then a play in round?

Like who wouldn't watch play in hockey? Of course we would. I mean the eyeballs would be tremendous.

Hockey revenue would increase and receding into the playoffs or one versus eight, I don't know.

I think anything you can do to protect the better teams who have gone through the blood,

sweat and tears of an 80 plus game regular season should get a little bit more bang for their buck.

But all the people I've talked about, billionaires, both powerful men in hockey have not been able

to convince commissioner Batman that this is a good idea. So I guess it's up to us in the media

just to continue to chew on the coyotes and phoenix for 20 years. I mean it's going to take

true. It's going to take a while. He's taking it. Yeah. He had a cell is going back to Arizona.

They will they'll they'll find it right back. Yeah. They got to get a ring on the right part of

town. I know it'll be a yes. I think we all feel that way. We went to that college rink and you're

just like it's so sad that it got to because if you just plunked one in Scottsdale it'd be a winner.

Yeah. Agreed. Yeah. I guess the Leafs just because you're there that's a season that feels like

that one can't end soon enough for everybody there. What's your take? I saw somebody was like

expect a new captain, new GM and new coach. That's quite an offseason. We've been changed.

Does one of the three happen before next season? Well I appreciate the speculation and I think

that it's fair. I mean so if you're the owners may believe sports and entertainment and you more

or less have made the decision that Bradshaw living needs to be fired. You know then do it.

He's signing college kids. He's doing what general managers do every single day. That doesn't seem

to me like a man who's walking on broken ice. Now there has to be an end of season review and maybe

MLS he says all right Keith Polly didn't work out sorry we are going to bring in a president of hockey

operations and then we'll leave it up to the president to decide if he wants a manager change

and if he wants a coaching change. You know so all of that has to come under fire and come under

an audit which will happen at the end of the year. The only way Austin Matthews isn't back is if

Austin Matthews says I don't believe in in the direction we're going here but guys I'm not in

that cap that thinks Toronto needs to take it to the studs. I don't I think Trilib has got to

find a way and he's got some assets. I thought he did pretty well to be fair at the trade deadline

in acquiring some of the pieces. Now you can re-invest in the market maybe attach a player here or

there to it and get some like change the look of the team. Maybe get lucky at the draft or the lottery.

100% and now off you go again. So if Austin Matthews decides okay I don't know this doesn't

sound right to me I'm going to pull you the Quinn Hughes card I'm going to I'm two years out

and I'm not extending here so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. If you think you can get

more for me now and we have to agree on where I would end up then let's have that conversation

with that team and let's make that decision this off season. For me that's that's the only way

Matthews futures called in the question at this point. It feels like what they have to wrap their

heads around Toronto is is this an off year or do we need to rebuild and if you feel like it's

an off year you probably are like well Trilib he's going to stay or coach is going to stay whatever it

is Austin's here it was just a bad year but if it's the opposite you now have to ask yourself

do we have the right person to start from square one and build a contender right well I don't know

what game it was like number of game was it 64 65 of the regular season when Radco Goudus took out

the knee of Austin Matthews but to that point it was an off year right and that incident and

their lack of response has injected some courage into the group because they have played

entirely different from the third period of that hockey game to the point of this conversation

so if you can continue on with that and you can pull together the group of players that are

leading you in how the team is playing now all right I think you can find a way to get through it

I'm not convinced that that's that's possible I look at Morgan Riley as an example

I think he's screaming for a change of scenery yeah based on his play the key takes

heat in the market but it's mostly media heat and it's based on his game it's not playing well

he didn't play well enough last year or this year this year what is his market value look like

and it may not be much yeah that might be a tough contract to move but it's deals like that

where they've got to get they've got to change the look of the team and bring in players if Greg

Barubi is still the coach that are going to play the game that he wants them to play

a couple things before we let you go uh everyone loves this is March Madness and now we've got

our own March Madness starting a year ago we did our candy bracket we uh who did win the

who won our candles were up there but I don't think it was Coke was Coke we're at the radio station

they love patch kids I think I can't even uh gosh it's all kind of good so we're doing the

chocolate championship this time around we've got uh it's going to be the top 16 we've got to play

in round it'll start early next week it's a little small there but we can maybe kind of make out

what we got there we got some Reese is the one see it's a heavyweight there are defending champ

they're the defending champ the eight line score versus Twix uh my wife she's like I think

wonder bars got I just don't think they're getting by Kit Kat I don't know um the M&M's might have

a advantage we just kind of lumped them in as a group maybe it's peanut maybe it's chocolate

there's in different variations but the Mars bar is it's a classic what do I guess just thoughts

on the championship which starts next week yeah um well I'm a child and I've always been a child

um and you can think of the pranks that I played with the old Henry bar back in the day

yeah we suck at each other yeah yeah so that's a no go um my top three my top three would be

Snickers Kit Kat and the Caramelt bar there you go wow and we still don't know the Caramelt secret

now all those years later yeah how do they get it in there walking key Dean it's in a safe somewhere

there we go and we'll let you go with uh with the old dog I found the I found the tweet and you say

it's not it's not kind of makes me sad now uh don't be shot to see Darren Drager on the next power

rankings treadmill incline at 15 speed at six mile per hour great job Darren oh boy oh

yeah the old Henry bar yeah if you're not paying close enough attention it's gonna make you look

reasonable fact similarly it is a reasonable fact we are doing the chocolate I'm not a sweet

guy at all so when I walk into a convenience store it's chips yeah I don't go down the sweet

style are you going in getting chocolate or candy or depending on a day Jack it's kind of switched

for me recently I was always a chocolate guy but then I pivoted to the candies for a bit so I don't

remember last time I bought a chocolate bar interesting in my old age I am finding myself because I'm

I'm I'm like you I'm a salty I want chips I want that sort of thing I just remember

you'd be having dinner with you know you're in laws or dramas and correct it's like well what's dinner's

done well what's for dessert and we would we would just never there would be no dessert or whatever

but it was like well you're having dinner so what's dessert is it pie is it cake what's the you

know like the older generation you always had dessert it's like I don't know if I really but I

find now as soon as I'm kind of does I could really use a sweet really could maybe it's an old person

thing um are we going to sample are we going to feel the fiber here well I don't know you tell me

this is your baby I'd like to oh okay I'll grab a brown bill and go buy some chocolate you can get

those bags with the individual Halloween size yeah yeah yeah it's well it's Halloween

season for sure um I go back and forth I'll be honest sometimes might be both

might be some some candies I'm going to limit yourself let's get a little shot depends on how long the

drive is right you do yeah right my going to the Duke that jerky so good takes a while to get

the other you need some on the way good need some good definitely gonna need a sweet on the way

home yeah what's your go to candy right now Jack the sour jolly ranchers jolly ranchers like gummies

but I do like the hard jolly ranchers they're hard to find though I found uh

topical they had a bag of the all reds so the cherry and the watermelons just those

that's how do you steer clear though at least look out man god damn it

the uh the dry the uh chocolate championship we'll start up next week

can we we'll get it going we got the playing round

I'm interested to see the big turk because there is falls there's going to be so it's a weird one

or hatred I have half feels like half the people are like how did this even what are you talking about

and the other half or how was this not in the top 16 it's a vocal minor hard job for the big

jerk yeah or maybe for the rollo maybe the rollo either way I've just yeah yeah it's a banger to

start I'll tell you that and then on the other side the two wild cards one of big turk and rollo will

move on and only one of dairy milk the classic and the lovable smarties the vet against the kids

it is yeah it's a generational thing really is we'll really know what our demographics here

on this podcast you will know a lot more about everybody I've never had a rollo or big turk what

give me some jack get off your ass and get out there

the rollo comes in a roll and inside it's like they're kind of stacked together they're little bite

sized chocolate covered it's like a caramel a caramel but it's it's hard like think think

caramel but the inside is harder yeah but not as true not as hard as maybe you you might think

a caramel to be right I'll tell you what I like in rollo ice cream oh yeah the rollo ice cream

is so good the phenomenal yeah that's a winner so you're an ice cream guy but not a sweet guy

I'm not a sweet guy at all or ice cream or but I mean I'm also not a fool well said

kept trails haven't got him yet he's still not a fool I'm no fool I know what the rollo ice cream is

about yeah I don't need to be a sweet guy to know that that's legit hey that's the bag

shit dealing with some flunky over here no

ready to talk about is that conversation with drags because that conversation in the league

is a big conversation the CHL yes it's like that's a big that's a big deal for people listening

is that just here like you know it's not baseball for sure yeah it's it's if you're a casual

that is what are we talking yeah people are like it's so as big David goes for a trade is what's

going on we call a rato it's but it is crucial because it's like look it's but it's the top league

in the world where the kids come from we got to make sure that system oh okay now you're doubling

up on it see no but I don't think people care I agree with you yeah like tell me give me a trade

rumor what was awesome after he's going like that's the sexy stuff that is not a sexy conversation

but it's crucial to the league to your point yeah and you know what I who I feel for is the man in

his new Yankee hat behind the screen because after the show he goes in and grabs clips like the zingers

the hard hitters the click baity stuff the people gonna oh what dragger was on today well I'm

gonna have to go and see that I need more of that yeah that's not it sorry jack that's all right

you're good like cutting someone at that one I guess you're the least stuff hey jack see if

brief that could do yeah along the lines of that looking you know looking young and he does it

very strapping young lad old Georgie sweetlin there um so too Paul Maurice he is set to coach

in I believe last night was 1998 what a year second all time in terms of games coached he is

143 behind Scotty Bowman for most all time you don't know he's like a kid coach in his 30s you know

like look at this young at the time he was the fifth youngest head coach ever 28 years old 281

days so a little shy of being 29 but is behind the bench as a head coach as a 28 year old in Hartford

Jack how old are you 27 or 27 27 can you imagine coaching an in-shell team in like a year no that's

insane how does it 28 year old going to Jackson man in detention of men yeah I'm compared to Jack I

could tell you right now Paul Maurice can read yeah I don't doubt it yeah he's he's a bookworm for

sure is that the youngest any chill coach ever no he was the fifth youngest that the youngest so

I mean it's close right once you're at 28 yeah in that 27 xx number of days kind of thing but

but he was the youngest guy for it's not just oh today for years because then he was 29 and 30

and 31 and 32 and was still by far and away the youngest head coach in the national hockey league

but and looked you know it looks good Lindy Ruff still giving her two yeah Lindy's got some

gray hair in that but we we talked about Conroy and you know how the the years are just piling up

agent like a president we're right or just

Paul Maurice I mean he doesn't uh doesn't look like it's affecting him the same way as it maybe

does others Gary green at 26 with the capitals green that was an in-season replacement wasn't

their guy in Chicago the other a couple years ago that was from Calgary yes but he was not

he wouldn't have in 20s but he played on the same world junior team that super team during the

lockout no 405 that like Seahbrook and Jeff Glass were on he was like literally coaching his

buddies it's that's crazy when you're there yeah

Paul Maurice in town tonight here tonight didn't see him at the ship we got him on

yeah could have got him on yeah could have got him on

could have maybe

coaching in the NHL at 20 at your age Jack yeah I'm trying to comprehend this right now I did

to you can't even clean your kitchen you can't even make a meal you can't read a book how the

hell you're gonna go to team I don't really think you're passing out judgment drunky pants with

kids at home is that true that you can't cook either or no I can cook and clean well if you can

cook where's my damn was on you it's rare I can cook a steak on a pan that's not a meal that's

like the main course though in a pan I'm telling you I'm worried you don't know a fried steak

is no idea if it's fine but then don't put in a pan for all the things empty the oh my god

the things empty yeah the thing is empty Rhett we can't buy over here well there's a few things empty

at Jackson

sure look here like because but I'm a Reese so no I just with with Maurice so he comes in at 28

I'm 27 26 25 24 23 he was an OHL assistant in like 22 21 22 years old a head coach

geez to be a head coach in your mid 20s in the Ontario league okay want a championship with the

Detroit junior Redwings the year before Detroit he he goes to Hartford and becomes an assistant

do you get the two lids of Pierre McGuire along the way or no let me see it was Paul Holmgren

okay was there and then obviously he got would have got bounced like what are guys like

Jeff Sanderson and Brendan Shanahan Shanahan would have been the same age like this is our coach

huh give me out of Hartford what the fuck are you doing here fellas this guy's 26 years old yeah

I am in a rental car in the States and he's coaching our team what are we doing

three years in Hartford they then moved to Carolina one two three four five six seven years

there around 10 years of the year yeah spent missed a year one year coaching the Marlies

right to the Leafs for two years back to Carolina for four wow was in Winnipeg for a ton

three four five six seven eight nine 10 years in Winnipeg 10 years in Winnipeg

20 13 14 wow I wouldn't that's more than I and then left in the 21 22 through his hands I remember

that he's a quitter better not a quitter right I don't think he was getting along with

old Blake Wheeler and company there they had to get some people out of there that didn't want

to be either and he was right he was absolutely right yeah and they got real good once those

guys left left Winnipeg went to Florida lost in the finals won a cup won a cup and this is his

fourth year as the Panthers had that cup was a big thing because it's like to be a young coach

and coach a lot unreal but like it's you need that crown jewel in the in the resume right and that

22 23 that was the year they beat Boston round one yeah right top team in the regular because they

lost in the final eight points or whatever they had down three one in the series version on

gets hurt game 82 and place or injury and then they claw back and game seven down

bobber came in right yeah Alex line started that he got them into the playoffs and then

Bob went nuclear for the next month nine fifty and they went all the way to the cup final

my goodness what a resume I mean it's Jack then you're at 94 95 that's you right now coach

I was dead when he started

are you gonna win in the original championship this year Jack oh I know dead

holy that's it I don't think that the Detroit is in the OHL even anymore isn't no god no

crazy that's how you get to be uh second all time

why did he coach in the K here that's that's usually where you go and you get gas so you see

that little mark in the season above like you would have got gas mid season okay and

they just pay you big dough and then you'll wait for the red opening Winnipeg apparently it was at

for 10 years wow he'd have spent a lot of time at Polo Park down at the Forks maybe Ray and Jerry's

steakhouse retro Salisbury house these all Detroit watching some no Winnipeg you went to winnipeg

for 10 years I don't know any of those places right which I was saying what to winnipeg so then he

would be familiar with it okay yeah all right outdoors you want to take the trip on the road

we're gonna go to winnipeg enough to work no that's a tough so no no no might have committed to that

last night damn it so what happened Thursday's the best day of the week I'm not gonna our Thursday's

family friend house sitter babysitter the the fellas is a musician and he had a show last night so

people in your life very important to be able to get out I do not put a chair by the bed and watch

them sleep I apologize do you at least put like a nanny cam on when you're when you've left them

what that's what it's about the hearing loss clinic it's about getting people back out being social

and being active with friends and family Travis Rhodes great guy Rhodes he he is he's about

given back to the community and he's also about making sure that every clinic is the very best they

have five in Calgary they have five in BC they continue to grow they continue to improve and get

better and change people's lives they've they've talked about this just things like dimension depression

if you're if you're putting it off the brain is a funny thing health risks like that can arise if

you're putting off uh hearing loss or hearing damage no reason to do it hearing loss dot c a the

website's there there's a location near you book yourself in for an assessment today hearing loss

town retro and tarot's feeling the cradle silver spin the uh yeah that tarot's one on the road

did they florida the ludic airport last night red or did they stay in emerton what's the move here

oh no they would have flown out right under that beautiful ludic airport once when i was with the

panthers we flew out of the ludic airport got about 10 minutes in and turned around and went

landed again because uh it was too cold and the flaps wouldn't come down right yeah it was no good

need the flaps maybe they should have just gone to the rum jungle or whatever that place was

oh i love the rum jungle so good jack you've been to the rum jungle great people no oh friendly place

super blonde and yeah it's good stuff set over to the website flames nation what's going on what

are the writers writing about now oh pikes lobbying for us to cheer for vegas it's pipe drunk too

with you last night because there's two things here because you either want them to be awful or great

you do not want the middle ground if they win the cup you get another first rounder that is the

condition on that second rounder they that was already with the first right vegas i'm happy to

cheer for them to win the cup i just don't look at them right now and see any chance they look like

or should yeah it's not been a good regular season for them and they have not been getting saved

some interesting numbers coming up when we go through the other town scoreboard for last night we'll

get to that in a second the the other side is well if they're really really bad you do hold

their first this year and you could have another dart in the old deal that's the way the ping-pong says

the lottery deals yeah i'm with you deep and as you need the oh yeah that would be great hey two

picks in the top 16 whoo Connie Connie but instead because they are not winning at an incredible rate

hurry right now and it's not like they deserve to win and have been uh

foiled by their netminder like Ottawa that drags talked about it's just they look uninspired

they are not the physical intimidating team that i think that wanted their DNA to be

stern unravelled for killing the gun there and Ursula one off

it's a good question i want to call you a clean house and just uproot everyone i don't think he's

well he's not hesitant to do it but the more guys you get on the wrong side of 30 locked into

huge money deals the harder that game becomes um he's also ruthless but i don't know what like

what's your market for a tomash hurdle for example if you had i mean fair enough but he's also a guy

if i was looking at the team we made the decision okay we need to pivot he's the GM or one of

them that i would want to yep oh 100% pull the strings on it's it's been a miserable year and i

think they missed two years ago it's the only year they missed the playoffs in franchise history

this would be two of three fingers crossed fingers crossed i don't think they're going to miss but

yeah i don't say i i don't think they're going to win the copy you know what LA is sneakily just

picking up points here they uh we'll look at the out of town score by the fire the coach

brought him paneron finally out under that from under their goofy coach yeah old Jim heller

just playing 4d in the playoffs in the seven game series against big David how'd that go

oh challenge that hey yeah you definitely want that team on the power play again

okay uh here's the flame stat from bobby germany now we know that the backline always does the heavy

lifting for this team there are only three players on the flames who have outscored their opponents

in five on five there's a lot of guys that suited up with the the the red jersey this year

backland colman pahal have outscored competition competition on a team that is 30 second and

scoring in the NHL and underdogs most nights impressive results for those three it is a bit odd

that uh you know they're stacked on the right with young guys you've got for stevich sir you've got

correct there you've had white cloud weger and anderson all ready's all has it like he's have it's

probably an okay year and yet he's buried here yeah they don't play him a ton for sure i thought he

was a super candidate to move the deadline in denham well i did too but i guess i didn't uh

i didn't really great seven somewhere right like just late pick get him a spot where you're

getting in the playoffs you're gonna run in the injuries you need a guy ret knows oh four you

couldn't have enough to go to another year i i didn't realize like a 1.187 is that it's tiny money

doesn't feel like it's a lot to take on but i guess ditto handlies kind of run into the same thing

on the left side now that you got only mad at ball and the emerges because that's up anyway interesting

stats there that's an impressive feather in the cap of colman backlin pahol to be above sea level on

this team this year uh we'll keep moving one of the prospects uh we have not talked about a lot

this year's henry mues he's a phenomenal right shot d-man that uh well had a season ending injury

in the fall uh he was one of the top prospects in the organization it's kind of forgotten with all the

the depth of the organization and him not playing games and not being up for awards and not

you know where's he gonna play next year uh skating last week all right this is a good player ret i

think he's in any cellar i know that it's a ways away and he's missed an important developmental

year with injury but uh they could they could continue to have kids on the right that look like

any cellars on the blue line yeah third round in the perec grid and draft that draft looks unreal man

vasha the taglia who they've traded yeah and then mues in round three i guess this would fall

into the mues news category mues news let's go to the schedule three wins in march we set it settle

down huska they got the panthers tonight lightning kings ducks canucks that closes the six game

homestand they then go on a six game road trip two trips to denver on the one road trip also

vegas anaheim dallas Seattle it's not an easy one we keep losing fellas but keep working hard that

airline a win is looking no good i think that that was a we we just got a big win in ebinton and uh

who's next i don't want to let these guys i have to stop looking right at what it doesn't mean i

like it no i agree they scored five well they don't lose them and they score guaranteed with

things score three fifty four and a row or something crazy uh let's take a look at the panthers they

are limping in terms of uh the bodies they've been missing no barcov moves everyone up a slot in

the middle that was probably the envy of the league down the middle when you could go barcov

then at lendell uh no they don't have barcov all year they have half a year without math you could

chuck and there's been other significant injuries as well old friend a j greer was a good flying but

he uh what busted a bone in his leg or sprained something they couldn't turn him into an asset of

the deadline he left as a free agent he's been great as a panther uh scored last night i believe yeah

it was 48 games for conchuck that he missed marchand is out now no barcov all year uh

ryanhardt has missed three so and there's cool there's there's they're thin right now but other

ryanhardt coming off a lopsided win it at the time they are returning some bodies as well set

jones has missed a bunch of time but he's finally back on the blue line he's been their best be

defenseman when he's been healthy this year but uh his missed significant time let's take a look at

the deep hairs since i've talked about defenseman jack you're awesome uh forestling actla had meekala

jones is back kula kula kula also missed significant time this year they have been

just absolutely ravaged and you get it three years and are you playing the cup final

you got all these guys going to play olympics meekala for finland for example

they had ten players at the olympics formation exactly yeah like a lot of hockey for the screw um

they're not a young team they don't have much in the prospect covered but i don't know that they're

dead yet because this is just playing more hockey than anyone else in the league the last three

years was going to catch up to you at some point gold tenders bobber set a bit of an off year

terrace of they brought in from columbus russian net minor that was highly tutored uh with cvj and

toolsy we'll see bark how about shwinto gajavik tough as nails he's out marchand their acquisition

of the deadline cup champ uh twice over now and rinehart did a day and this is them healthy

relatively speaking because they just got set jones back and could chuck came back before the

olympics uh we'll keep moving the west standings look like this today fellas take a look at the

bottom the kings are in seados out we're waiting for it no one believes in the cracking

and the kings doing just enough to get in there uh don't go look at these point totals and try to

get them in the playoffs in the east that ain't going to work but i don't mind l a bnn that's a

interesting i'd rather l a with copestar than seattle with no one i know

yeah seattle is just the most melbatos team in the nhl there's no emotions go away and for a while

it was that remember about a month ago we looked at the three six five projections and they had

seattle nowhere it wasn't even in that all the models hated them and they were in a playoff spot

they're on the dribbly at the top three in the beset for a while i still wonder about the sand

they sharks they've had a couple tough ones last night they get blank by buffalo and they also

lost in ebbenton which really would have tightened the gap and given the chance uh they might

just be out of fuel fellas and they are young and sell and celebrate clearly the emotion is

showing you shattering your sticks at the end of losses but uh it just might not be yet for this

up and clear what two points back with the game in hand they can do it

i fully came in to fully got hurt last night it i'll say this if you want to go just straight

vibes entertainment Colorado San Jose would be epic in round one if they can get to wildcard too

sure like might not be a long series but it will not be boring and i mean you tall looks like

you can buy your playoff tickets no question there's enough gap there and they will get the one

seed in the pacific that they probably have decent odds to have a better regular season then you

look at the point total uh they played one more game than anaheim they have the same number of points

you're one's a wildcard they seem theoretically could be winning the division it's crazy uh don't

look past that wildcard one versus specific winner because closer than the standings would uh

oh it's wildcard this will be a walkover now let's go to the east crazy things are happening out

there uh last year we saw the Calvary Flims miss the playoffs of 96 points look at the pace

here fellas they are like what 12 points clear the cutoff in the west whoo Boston Detroit still

clinging to those wildcard CBJ slides into the three hole in the metro the aisles are out

oh i kind of want to see shape from the playoffs boys in that new rank but it uh

could we get rid of Boston and Detroit please that's gonna be a

winning big game yeah it's gonna be a screous and let up hella buck and look at the percentage you

imagine mission the playoffs that 600 points percentage that this never happened in the league before

which brings us uh let's get to this point the pacific cutoff uh yeah the top team in the pacific

would be uh 11th in the east i don't know what this accomplishes i it just shows that i understand it

yeah unbalanced but they don't no teams will play each other until the cup final no it's just like if

you're like the New York Islanders might get they're on pace for 99 points and missing

96 is the record the flames tied at last year by losing a tie break to like it is that is just

bad luck when you can have a 99 point season and miss somehow now look they're

might get their shit together and someone also fall off but we are going to see a very very good team

miss in the east because of how good it's been and in the west it's like yeah you barely over 500

while you get home ice in the pacific it's wild yeah and again it doesn't mean anything it's just an

odd thing to note uh bottom bottom ten let's look at the flames Chicago doing some more class

and i didn't know hey go on oh my look at the Chicago get out of there beat the wild well done

three points out of four against uh the wild because they went to beyond regulation at first

to the back to back and three points separating the rangers and the flames bit of a cushion there

I like it but the two flames do have a game in hand so settle down tonight huska that's right that's

right uh finals from last night dean tell us about the hockey we watched there was so much of it

while we talk about the Bruins uh two oh and two in their last four passes on a 12 game point

streak the jets they know with the the lost four six they're they're on the program the senators

got a game when you're out of uh ready to chuck with 13 seconds left um regulations the aisles

that far from a point that close I should say auto a three of four and 12 three and two in their

last 17 it was uh the rhyme dog in that for the uh the sands there he's been actually fine

because he hardly played he was a spengler cup and was not like on a team in the fall like

drager it said sands were very good last night shots eleven one auto i in the third period

Matthew Schaeffer scores he's got 21 goals and hits the 50 point mark he is two goals away

from tying the demand goal scoring record that was Brian leach it was 23 yeah and he didn't do it

as an 18 year old fire call yeah uh red wings they beat the habs so if you're wanting this boss

then Detroit thing to go away it's not how it's going uh wings of one back to back habs of

loss three of four Columbus it's an 11 game point streak seven or four fan tilly lace two goals

were ansky three helpers grieves 22 saves an L third in the metro tied with the islanders with

83 points but a game in hand you mentioned the hawks they win uh caprice off a scratch day-to-day

lower body injury wild of lost 405 and they get the hottest team in the NHL potentially in Dallas

around one they got to get it going when he's been quietly uh good job preads they beat the

Kraken Kraken have lost back to back it's except eight we don't we don't like them uh panthers

we talked about four nothing over the oilers kujo win bobber win 454 tying him with kujo for

seventh all time in terms of goal he wins uh Tampa getting right kuch and cerelli one goal and

two helpers kutcher of eight points it is last two games he second and league scoring three ahead

of nade one back of mcnew one back yeah hope and yet you get that said the other day last 45

games hottest run since mario yeah it's we've not seen anything like this in a long time the four

back of buffalo and four had a Montreal somewhere in hand on buffalo too Jake Gensel your buddy Jackie boy

hit 30 goals last night he had 41 last year probably don't talk enough about I guess a lot of goals

in your first two seasons as a free agent signing when you look back at them deciding between

keeping stamco scene and gensel they look smart and stamco is having a great year but yes

gensel yes headman did miss the second and third he was injured before the Olympics went to

the Olympics then wasn't playing and then so there's something up there uh Utah for nothing they

beat vegas killer with two in the first period vimelka 28 saves uh aiden hill out three goals on

three shots that's uh so perfect yikes flanks have that first vegas has been black uh blanked

in back-to-back games at home oh man they lost to uh the vibes are off there big time not great what

is up a stone is he coming back he returned but at this time of year we see ice melt on the streets

and stone go to IR on and off sabers three in a row 11 of 12 back-to-back shut out wins they beat

vegas to nothing the other night she's lie in 23 saves he's one 10 straight road starts goodness

so that's impressive and uh you get ahead we need to make our itinerary for buffalo we need a full

wing rest of your car you're on it you're good full confidence there uh 401 in their last five

are the flyers there six back of Detroit kings are four three and two since they fired their head

coach i can't have points but not as we saw they uh get some leapfrogging of the crack in

in the division uh here's one for you we know Colorado was uh lights out the first half of the year

just okay coming out of the Olympics still trying to figure out where Nas fits all that stuff

they're not at uh fifth gear yet but um yeah they can clinch today yeah they're very good

oh yeah if you just get a point tonight and i think they got the hawks we'll we'll check the schedule

in a sec i spitball i think it's a hawk's but a point we'll get them in it's been an incredible year

despite what's been just an ordinary run for them the last month or so yeah like their last 10

is six three and one and that feels and that feels yeah that's true and months before they had three

regulation losses uh look at the game style you hit the tunes dean off plays all right all right

palm or east bowl at the top but let's find a place it definitely is the palm or east bowl

run frances all very good jeffo kneel patrick marlowe that cost them Seth

Jarvis the pick that they went with marlowe to dump the cap didn't play for it yeah correct

well seen by the hoist on kajijis i thought those are ramps oh i would love a hoist

oh god that'd be great i can't fit it can't do it not a firm new garage you need a shop

if anyone has a shop they'd like to donate to hoist it's a cone this guy's got this guy's gonna

sir abris this fella nattix and Nike just put out a new shirt for the Pittsburgh pirates that says

hoist the cone i'm gonna pirate spend my entire life i don't know hoist the cone

means uh our friends at Pittsburgh clothing company are the ones that caught this um they suggest

maybe this is a callback to 2019 when they served bold pork and barbecue sauce and barogies

in a waffle cone i mean pirates hoist colors right the pirates hoist the colors maybe there's a

copyright issue in there you know pirates of the Caribbean can't really say that whatever i don't

know but i also don't know what hoist the cone means there's nothing in like Pittsburgh culture

or lore that involves a cone oh and on top of not knowing what this means it's gonna cost you

45 bucks so jack i'm excited for the pirates they're gonna be young and exciting but no one has

a clue what the hell they're slogan is that's a million dollars to jack i'd get you one but that's

merit that's a lot of no that's like 60 bucks i'm gonna find you some vintage gear because i'm not

time for the uh bets of the day for bet three six five hockey fans tired of waiting for the end of

the game to get paid ready to move on to the next puck drop yep that's why bet three six five

an official partner the NHL has three goal early payout if the team your riding goes up three

goals at any point in the game they'll pay your bet out early hockey moves fast now with three goal

early payout there's one less thing you have to wait around for it's bet three six five download the

app and see what early payouts all about must be nineteen or older please play responsibly uh fell

us it's unavoidable math that checks back in town and we know how he rolls you loved it here you

showed it out flames you also did get the hell out of here when you wanted to and uh he has a way

of being math that you could check that no one else really can do I'm hitting the anytime goal

of plus 180 we'll see if it happens tonight and I've liked the cut of young mat they gridden's

chib of late the line was buzzing against Detroit didn't play a ton in the opener of the homestan

but did get that shootout winner feels like the mow is flowing it's got the the good karma going

right now we're gonna have two shots in a point partly those plus two 75 two shots come on

does my best don't feel like it's easy yeah good bets we all we hit last night as well because we

have the Columbus and Buffalo both puck lines minus one and a half no sweat outscored the opponents I

think eight two will take it on next little week hockey moves fast it's the three goal early payout

one less thing to worry about bet three six five download the app and see what early payouts all

about must be nineteen or older please play responsibly panteros town and you're not going to see

the panteros your teams in town god you're missing the panteros it's no

miss and they want me there i don't want to be a rude and an ageist are trying to make you look old

but is there a person in the organization that was there when you were played that's still there

because they've gone through a bunch of owners and a lot it's not been a it's been steady for what

five to six years but prior to that tumultuous highly doubtful i wouldn't yes because like well

Buffalo comes in you still got some guys that are in the world 30 years ago yeah we're Buffalo too

though right it's a long time ago there's been lots of changes i would i know i'm like

Georgie's obviously in in Buffalo but i and Lindy did you play with barcoff of cheddar remember

yeah yeah he's out yeah he was probably not born he was dead yeah you didn't play with

Mackie Samuskevich no Mackie no his dad yeah and his dad i think Mackie was probably like

even if he'd been dead then too probably yeah you ever think about that like jack was dead when you

were playing well i'm soon to be dead by the looks of it so i mean oh you'll be better tomorrow huh

let's do this no one got any uh fancy stuff i should take i'm open to

suggest to say you got everything any already yeah you're the you're the man for the fancy stuff

oh dear five dollars the oil is getting after their own barn is amazing to see yeah hey

before nothing yet i'm okay with it and i it's just a little extra salt with it being the panteros

in a season where they've been miserable just looking like themselves for one night beautiful stuff

i didn't pay attention to it but i had it on and it did look very lobsided

one team was better again than the other team well conno doesn't want to get points they're not

going to windy and you told us to say it's almost time to oh ten and two to fire out that uh

Vulcan's got the old starcheck thing going over there too yeah that's nice jack

well good job like look at that jack taber lake i don't know if you want to swim in that

logus it looks nice on a map looks beautiful there yeah don't see go for a ditty cabins on it i'm

wondering what's happening here it's hard to say slew private private area private a taber lake

don't want you going out there no god no uh with your boom box make it a bunch of noise jack

with a shirt off yeah Jared ten box palace will you be attending the Darryl Sutter farm

equipment sale and late june and Viking tractors balers livestock equipment no joke

tinfoil had time what what does that mean um are you

coming and making a return to hockey he needs to sell all of his uh farm equipment uh

i think he's probably got nice shiny new stuff he's getting rid of the old stuff

that'd be a banger of an event up to bike in there i blame brit

yeah if he wasn't so worried about being a coach it can be passed on the farm on down

right yeah it's your own fault kid short-sighted is he wondering what a tinfoil hat is referenced

to like he's trying to ask what that alludes to i think he's saying conspiracy theory what does

this mean i see where you're saying okay yeah yeah i think it just means he's got a new gear

i think he's probably retiring maybe i think you can rent out the land and sure you know but you

can sell off your gear and uh you know uh Darryl you got fired before that last contract kicked in

i'm not sure it's not hard up for cash i'm guessing well i just wonder is that contract over

just we love your big D had a point that he does and you know what big D don't go ahead yuck it up

i'm the one who's getting paid to wash up my tractors and get them ready for the big sale

to smell the brook coffee and look out over the hills not bad

is that it yeah yeah there you go super chat for the use centers of calgary

you people want to do the thing you were gonna do the math for us so i'll walk us through the

tecithon math no huh no you said you said yesterday it's important to set the precedent of me

disappointing you and not falling through oh okay we got another super chat so i figured it out

right whoa hey guys to give you one of the yeah just imagine what amazing team the flames could be

as a premier destination only about two more weeks to sign the Alberta petition for

human that's interested i'm not sure that ties into the hockey team but okay i'm not even sure

what he's talking about is there something

wins have changed in their wins of change or has hangar so you it's you you didn't do the math

you don't need to it's the tecithon what it does is every day there's hockey games played and

those results impact the overall any tall standings and those overall standings of course

well that's what you factor in when you're doing the draft lottery if you're gary betman

so he's like cracking they lose oh really that's interesting Nashville they went oh really

Chicago oh okay now the flames were idle but they do sit there in the 31st spot in the national

hockey league which means they are second on this list at a good day yesterday the probability of

picking first overall 13.6 percent the flames won this son of a gun yesterday

no we're so good yesterday did you figure out the numbers Ryan

uh you have a 13 let's go jack let's take a look and see

i win a peg wins the draft lottery saying Lewis gets a uh major bump

as vancouver falls to three from the one spot and the flames dropped to four

which has been the most likely outcome yep and yes which you can't going back to yesterday that

my only point was just it would talk to people and maybe it's the people that i talked to

was that so if you don't win the lottery does that mean we're falling to four and it seems like

you're falling to four the thing that is hard to wrap your head around is you're like oh the

team at the bottom has the best odds of winning the lottery but they're still like 75 percent

most likely it's not with the lottery that's the part that's hard to whether the best odds

but the rest of the field is three times more likely than them to win which is very

anything that's it feels like it's a bit of a bummer we'll see how the lottery balls bounce

how much should they put in that envelope for gary when he's in town gary's got her back

i think so you like that new profit center the building there yeah well we saw it with the world

couple hockey got those big right pre-tournament games to look forward to they're gonna be dynamite

yep loves it Calgary can't wait for Kazakhstan and Belarus

no kidding man sign me our unicorn media passes for that i'd start queueing up right now

yep i would two five five five satellite on way rise place no i would two

well folks have have a fantastic oh good another one like that

oh there's suck there is six and nine and just right on the wire right on the wire

guess that's it hey is there anything else uh no i think it's time right

championship starts next week yep flames cruising through the homestand

hopefully uh some sobriety and good health no one of the two finds its way to the show

and uh i'm going to do everything i can dean thanks buddy get well we missed some sunshine state

boys Florida Tampa during the weekend there you go all right how was the show today jack
