Chinnesota Wild GM Bill Guerin Joins The Show

All right, everybody welcome into the show.

This show is brought to you by Lucy.

It's a 100% pure nicotine and it's always tobacco free.

It's not sometimes tobacco free.

It's always tobacco free.

Lucy breakers are nicotine batches.

It's an extra surprise the fucking set yourself up with a subscription and have Lucy

delivered straight to your doorstep in a discreet package so your wife doesn't know you're

on nicotine.

Here comes the fine print Lucy products are only for adults of legal age and every order

is age verified warning.

This product contains nicotine and guess what nicotine is an addictive chemical but it's

good to be addicted to things these days.

It keeps you focused.

I'm not supposed to say that.

Use code chin caps lock for 20% off your first order.

Jamie edit that out.

I'm just saying it's good to be consistent with something.

She might as well be addicted.

Welcome into the show everybody.

Let's see repetition.

Those are two things you can do with Lucy nicotine is put it in your lip.

It is luggage.

You can travel with it.

You can go through TSA with something in your lip and it fits in a travel size bag especially

when you bring three logs.

I don't know if you can say chew but yeah I was supposed to say chew like they have all

these guidelines and rules.

Nicotine responsibly I think they say I almost said chew responsibly.

But do duster responsibly we got Bill Garen coming on the show today I'm actually really

pumped about that.

I'm going to ask him a lot of things.

Why isn't pride night every night?

Why isn't it?

Yeah.

Can we get more pride tape on the bench?

Why are there no black eyes on the team Bill?

There should be no black or white tape.

It should be just a straight rainbow.

Can you please tell him that?

Yeah.

It should be clear tape because clear tape is offensive to people that are all bino and

pale skin.

Yeah.

So I would say there should be, well there should be mulatto tape because that would be pretty

sweet.

Imagine you had mulatto tape.

Like a tan tape.

Yeah.

Kind of like a packy color.

Yeah.

Like that mat dumba tape.

Bill why did you guys, did you trade mat dumba because he's Filipino?

Right.

And was he there for that?

Was that thing?

I think that was a, I can't remember.

I don't know if he traded dums or would have been the Chuck E. Fletch and the boys.

Maybe he traded dumba.

I don't know.

So that was the first Hispanic player in NHL of any Hispanic descent.

Garam?

Yeah.

He's Hispanic.

He has like a little bit of Nicaragua in him.

I researched it last night.

I was doing my heart hitting research because we're interviewers now.

And apparently, yeah, I guess I can see a little bit.

Yeah.

I feel like that doesn't count.

No.

I mean, that would be like saying Nick Schmaltz is like one of the first Indian players

to it.

Yeah.

Is it from all the first, I think it's either between him or that guy that always gets

concussions?

Ju Harcahara.

Yeah.

I would say he's more.

Nick?

He's got more tent.

I think he's more Indian than I would say.

The Nick.

He's from that community in British Columbia and Surrey.

They're all just Indian.

Are they Indian?

Natives are.

No.

Real.

Yeah.

Okay.

Well, they're both real, but yeah.

They both count.

Yeah.

They both count.

But yeah, I'm pumped to have them on.

They seems like a guy that he, he's a no BS kind of guy, not the no BS that the Rangers

have.

Remember, before the season, the Rangers went on custom ink.

They had those no bullshit t-shirts made up and then they missed playoffs by 300 points.

That was sick.

Raiders had eight shots on goal last night.

I respect that.

Were they at home at the garden?

Oh, yeah.

I didn't even watch the game.

I just turned it on.

Turned my TV on.

It was NHL network was on and the game was finishing up.

It was 2-1 at the end of the third and I look up and the Rangers are pulling their

goalie.

Six on five.

They have eight shots on that.

I respect that.

Well, it's insane, dude.

Imagine you just make it to the league.

You step on that ice at Madison Square Garden and you just get eight shots on that.

That's 2.5 shots per period.

I could have got a math.

I could have played in that game.

I think you could have got at least you could have played in that game because no one had

any shots on the night.

I mean, I think if you just go stand in front of the net, you're probably getting three

for the Rangers.

How do you not get fired up to play at MSG even if it's like a random Tuesday in November?

You know what I mean?

It's Madison Square Garden.

I know.

I know it's Monday night.

It's the only game in the league and it's Mika, Zabinajah, Aoki's 1000th game.

You're all going to little sister actor.

He's doing a set.

John Summon's going to stop by.

He's going to play into the wee hours of the night and then you're going to catch

Deli.

I don't know how you don't get fired up for that game to go snap it with your boy when

you know he's got a full set afterwards at the box.

Zabinajah, you know he was going to play somewhere after.

Are you going to have fired up for him?

Let's face it, the Rangers aren't good anymore.

Breaking news.

They're not.

They suck.

And Sully, like, I don't even know what you do.

I think Sully's going to pay like seven, eight million.

What?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, Sully's making a big.

God, dude.

He's, I can't wait to ask Billy G about Sully.

I mean, they go way back.

Like, are they boys?

Oh, yeah.

They got to be boys.

There's a BU guy, right?

Sully's a BU guy.

Yeah.

And Garen's a BC guy.

Garen is a BC guy.

They're masked guys.

They're masked guys.

They came up to the Pittsburgh ranks.

Billy Garen was the assistant GM and Pittsburgh.

At the time, Mike Sullivan was coaching in Wilkespaer.

And before Sully got called up in one, two mugs, you know, they spent a lot of time on

the farm together.

Yeah, that's cool, man.

But yeah, the Rangers, what an absolute disaster.

We're never going to see them win a cup again.

I was laughing out loud at, I don't want a name drop, but there was a journalist that

did this whole Sully liquid about the Leafs.

And like, this is like, and I was like, you know what, dude, we're all going to be dead

one day.

Like, you don't have to dissect the team that much.

They missed the playoffs.

Yeah.

It's just like, listen, they missed the playoffs.

Let's just have fun with the rest of the season.

Let's have a good summer.

And we'll try again next year.

You don't need to like, kind of take a deep dive into this depressing article about like,

what's wrong?

What's broken with the Leafs?

None of this is going to matter.

Never.

Speaking of the Leafs, too, for our, no, you're right.

I mean, what can you do?

You can't just chalk it up and move on.

Collect your $200.

It's like Monopoly, man.

You just keep playing.

But an official chin review, Anthony Stolars warm ups, you got to stay talk there.

I didn't see what happened because I've been watching tennis.

He got hit with a wrist shot by William D. Lander in warm ups.

He had to exit the game because it struck him literally on the chin.

Oh, it wasn't that hard of a shot.

I mean, I don't know, you know, I'm not here to be the concussion spotter or tell guys

that things don't hurt and I've never gotten hit in the face with a goalie mask on.

But yeah, man, he, uh, he was untucked in, in building Lander caught on.

He kind of came in like right around the top of the circles, let it, it wasn't a twisted

wristard.

It had a little, little spicy mayo on it.

But I would say, you know, it wasn't crazy fast caught him in the chin, man.

He went out, he was out for the game in warm ups.

How many articles got written about that 1,000?

Yes.

Um, well, Chris John stoned and Mark Masters had 12 each about it and they dissected it.

And curious yesterday I was talking on his show and saying, you can't get hurt off that

play. So now, now Toronto media is telling people when and when and when they can't get

hurt.

He's like, you can't go out after that.

Why do goalies not wear that big thing that Pat Watt used to wear?

Remember those, and I always wonder this, they, there's a lot of exposed face on their

neck.

And I can't believe some guys don't cover up their chin and they don't wear that thing.

And it is allowed like it dangles around it.

You can't hear with that thing.

A lot of people that haven't played goalie before I played in roller hockey a handful of

times.

And when that fiberglass, uh, chin and neck protector is swinging around.

It's like, um, you can't hear shit, it's annoying.

Yeah.

It sucks.

They are crazy for doing that, like even deflections.

I don't know how more guys don't get hurt.

I think for some reason, McAvoy is getting all the bad luck this year and no one else is.

But the fact that more goalies don't get hit in the neck is mindbathling.

And I'm glad they don't, but it's crazy.

Yeah, I would say those net minors, I don't know why they don't wear it.

I mean, some, I don't think anyone really wear it anymore.

They're used to be like Jiggy Shiger wore it.

There was a few guys.

I think Mark Country Ferta for a bit or one in Pittsburgh.

But I don't know, it's even like that cat eye to, though, man, that mask, um,

a puck can get stuck in the eyelid.

Like if it was the perfect shot, it can get stuck in your eyelid.

So those, even those cat eyes, like they don't let junior players wear them.

Oh, they don't let college players wear them that cat eye, man.

That, that thing's sneaky dangerous, too.

You can get killed.

Marty Fert gets called up for like a night in Detroit and blast a 125 mile an hour

slap shot in your head.

And so speaking of getting killed, um, AJ Greer almost murdered.

A guy and I, listen, I don't have any dog in this fight.

I don't know what AJ Greer.

I don't know what's it.

Connor is Erie.

Uh, Connor Gary.

Yeah, yeah, Gary Connor Gary Connor.

That is the most dangerous play in sports.

And if you have never sat near the ice, it might not look like he's going in

harder or anything like that, but, uh, that could have paralyzed.

That's the paralyzer right there.

And they're just like, yeah, uh, three games.

Yeah.

I couldn't believe it.

I just thought it was funny.

I'm not upset about it.

Um, I just could not believe that that's a three game.

Or I want to hear what you thought about that because that is such a dangerous play.

Yeah.

I mean, he pushed AJ Greer was going full speed.

He sees numbers.

He speeds up.

And it's one of those plays where, uh, Gary Connor or Zari is going into the corner.

And you can tell that he's going to set his feet and turn up the ice a little bit.

So even right there is dangerous because at that split second,

he's going to be on one edge and getting into his other edge.

So what I mean by that is he's getting from his outside to his inside edge,

so his feet are turning.

Yeah.

And he turns a little like he looks a little, so he looks a little bit.

So now he's, you know, off his rocker on his left skate and Greer sees that

and speeds up and hits them in the back of the numbers where that's a classic

play.

You know, you always say just joking around.

You see numbers speed up.

He literally did that.

And he pushed him like right on the back, man, where it's such a dangerous play.

I mean, dude, you could literally paralyze the guy in perilous.

I don't even think those guys watch the play.

They're like, yeah, give him three games.

We call Kelly and, um, you know, we talked to Craig Conway.

Sorry, he seems like he's our rising and playing the next few days.

Let's give him three games.

Doesn't really matter though.

I don't know how he's not more hurt.

That is a play where that's a career ending.

That could be a career ending play.

Yeah, 100%.

Now does Gary Conner should he put himself in that position?

Absolutely not.

But it's kind of like tick tock hockey these days a little bit where guys like

are more willing to put their backs towards other guys' chains.

Back in the day, you have to look.

You just don't think you're going to get you're going to get pressed on the back

like that if you're sorry because he did have he did create space.

He was going hard into to shake that biscuit to be at first on the puck to get

first touch established, obviously, possession.

I don't think you think when you're going in that hot, you're going to get

touched to be honest.

If anything, you think once you get to the puck, I think you think Greer is on

you. He's going to hit you when you finally get closer to the boards.

You're in the dangerous zone there.

You don't. Yeah.

I just don't think you're going to I personally, for me, I know it's Greer.

I know he's a reckless player, but even still, I'd you don't think you're going

to get hit there.

You really like now, like you don't think you're going to get pressed on the back

like that.

Well, maybe it's easy for you to I played in leagues that were full

well and retarded.

So you assume you're going to get hit from behind.

Yeah.

I'm saying like, I think if I'm going in for that puck, I would slow up if I'm

sorry, and I would get Greer on my back.

So I would on the back, he's closer.

Yeah.

So I would invite him into me.

So now I I minimize that separation.

And now he can't really hit me.

You know, he's going to rub me off that kind of tug me off into the boards.

Okay.

But then you're just going to ride that in and then you're ultimately able to make

a play where if you go in hot like that, you do risk, obviously the worst possible

situation of a guy that just doesn't even give a fuck about you and just

slams you into the boards from behind like that.

I want to get a check.

I just on the show and just be like, too, yeah.

Like for me, if I if I knew that was Greer and I'm a defenseman, obviously,

Zary's a four, but it's the same thing when you're going in for a puck in the corner.

I would have invited him in to get into my back.

So I would have stopped up, got body position.

And now he can't hit me and I'm low on my edges.

And I can still make that pop play or spin off him where Zary was like,

I'm just going to fly in there.

He's probably not going to touch me.

If anything, I'm going to get hit along the wall.

But that's exactly what didn't happen.

And he got fucking tagged, man.

I mean, that's a you just don't think you're going to get like shoved like that

from behind.

I mean, that's a, that's a really dangerous.

It's like really bad play.

Yeah.

I thought it was also funny that Beckett, Seneca, you got fined $2,000 for diving

when like a couple of weeks ago, they're like, dude, you got to stop diving,

but he's still diving.

I think that should be a $200,000 fine.

I think that should be a 20 game suspension.

Get that shit out of there.

Set the precedent like we're playing hockey.

Yeah.

This is a hot, this is hockey.

This is not like you get touched and you go and see the way you went down.

He was like, uh, and he like put his finger out.

Like, you know, okay, guys do that thing where they go like this.

Yeah.

They're in the coffee shop just like that.

Like it was just the gayest dive.

And I saw it this morning.

And I was like, that can't be $2,000.

That has to be $200,000 and a suspension.

I hate diving almost more than the Greer hit.

Yeah, diving's tough.

I didn't even see that play with Bennett, Seneca.

Yeah, Beckett, Seneca, he has one of those new, like, Gen Z names.

Josh Beckett, Seneca, yeah, I didn't see the play.

Bennett, Seneca, I'll have to watch it.

But yeah, when you do that thing with your wrist, I'm already out on you.

He would like, he barely got touched.

They're going, he didn't even have the puck.

I think he got rid of the puck and they're both heading up the zone.

And he got like clipped on his arm a little bit and you went like, and I heard

the mic on the board.

He went like, uh, yeah, I was like, dude, that's the gayest.

That was worse than Blandese's famous embellishment.

When you got shot by that, uh, whoever killed Kirksy.

Yeah, it was John Wilkes Booth speaking of Kirk.

Actually, we don't have to get in our cursing Kirk segment.

But, um, uh, Blandese had one of the most flamboyant

dives of all time.

But Santa Ferta is up there.

Yeah, it was just.

This is a Gen Z dive dude.

It was a muff dive.

What do you do?

Yeah, that's not even helping the team.

You're losing aura.

Even if they call the trip there and you get the penalty for your team, it's still gay.

Yeah, that's like the dude walking, yeah, he's walking all the way across the Olympic

size pool in a speed of getting on the high dive and doing something really

gay.

Yeah, doing a pencil dive.

That's gay dude.

It's speaking of gay.

I had the gayest tweet on Saturday and I didn't come out, right?

I was, uh, for some reason I had this scenario in my head, like how funny it would

be if you set up a proposal and like the wife had a dildo in your, I don't

want to say it, but in your playing a prank on the photographers.

Yeah.

Um, and for some reason I tweeted and woke up the next day and I was like, what the

fuck?

I had a bunch of text people like, dude, are you good?

Yeah, you good to it.

Did you see that?

I didn't know.

Don't read it.

I didn't delete it.

You didn't delete it.

Yeah, I know.

I was, I was sheets early on on Saturday.

I didn't, I didn't see it.

I assume it came in that a later hour.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, it came in pretty late, but it was super.

I don't know if it was gay or then Beckett said, I don't know the kid's name.

Seneca, Seneca, Santa night.

I don't even know.

Yeah.

I don't know what's going on.

Chinnacock.

Bennett, Chinnacock.

He's an absolute, yeah, he's 100% native.

Um, speaking of games, did you see the game?

He's been like the rapper.

He's been sending out absolute just how married he is.

So like, yeah, I guess he's gotten caught a bunch doing the same pick up line

where he'll just send it into a chick on Instagram and just say F three.

And they're like, what?

And he's like, Oh, shit.

I thought this was a vending machine.

You be a snack.

Oh my God.

So the game is still wheeling.

He's 46 years old.

Um, probably has over under 70 kids.

Um, he's still out there.

He must be on the, yeah, I must be on those blue pills.

But why is he receiving hatred for that because he's using the same mind?

I don't see a problem with that.

No, yeah, I think, um, yeah, I know.

That's what I think he was just getting some criticism that he was using the same line.

It's kind of like a ridiculous line like, Oh, three.

Oh, I thought this was a vending machine.

Yeah, because you'd be a snack.

He said he, he came out and he said something.

I think he tweeted or he put out an Instagram story where he's like, yo, um, that's it.

For now with F three, um, we got to come up with a new pick up plan.

I'm going to F four.

Yeah, I don't know if that would work on me.

I suppose a girl.

Yeah, I mean, it's weird to think that guys with face tattoos are wheeling in DMs.

Yeah, that are almost 50.

Yeah.

I mean, I don't know how that works.

I don't know either.

Do you wheel when you're 50?

I think on Instagram, I guess.

I guess I probably should have the game.

Yeah, you might as well.

You're verified.

You got face tattoos.

Um, but if you're the game, you just go to like a, like a bar.

You go to a magic city.

Yeah, go to a strip club.

Yeah, wheeled strippers, 100%.

Yeah, I just thought that was funny.

Yeah, I mean, I don't, I don't hate the game figuratively and good early for using the same line.

Like if you have a good line, you wear it out, right?

Like, yeah, I mean, it's, yeah, it's just like fishing, right?

Yeah, if you got good bait or if you, you know, you got a really good play.

Like the Philly special or spider, two wide banana, John Gruden.

Like you use that play and whenever you need it.

Yeah, I don't know.

The Instagram, the Instagram DM game is, is weird.

It's watered down.

It's, yeah, it's really watered down.

It's, um, it's just weird.

I don't know.

It's very sad.

It's who you are.

It's very saturated.

I would say, I think in what's not saturated is, it's, it's chin to chin wheeling.

Now, chin to chin wheeling stock is really low.

No one's doing it.

They're not a lot of people are doing it.

Not a lot of people are doing it.

I would say, you know, I would say most people, maybe even are DMing at a bar that they

know someone's at.

They're not even going up to their face or just like, where you at?

Then the other person's like, no, where you at?

I just like slide.

I just can't get a good vibe off of DM.

Like, I don't know if you're crazy.

Like, obviously, I'm not going to get into it, but I've had a couple bad experiences

with people ended up, um, just being not who they really are a couple of times.

Like, yeah, not that they're like, they're trans or something, but they seem

cool and like, you have mutuals and then they're just not, but also they can say the same

thing about me.

But there's nothing like chin on chin contact in person.

You get that energy from them.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, you could still end up with a borderline sociopath, but at least, um, you know,

you've seen it.

What do you mean?

Like seen him in person?

Yeah, you've seen him person.

So you can rule out maybe, you know, percentage wise, you're going to have a better

chance.

You know, like, you can still get back to their place and you could, you know, be cut

up into 14 different pieces, but at least you saw the first side of them.

You know what I mean?

Like you met them in person.

You were able to make a judgment calling in up from there.

It's, it's up to you, dude.

Yeah.

Like good luck.

Yeah.

I mean, now that this is a relationship, I guess, I don't even know how that works anymore.

I don't know if you're supposed to meet people online.

I don't know if you're just the meet people on a coffee shop and a grocery store, like

all those gym chicks are always like, oh my god, this guy's staring at me in the gym,

but like, he won't come up to me, but then you have the gym chicks that are like, don't

bother me when I'm working out.

It's like everything is just so confusing now.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

It's like a, you're mad that I didn't come up to you in the gym, but you're, you're

snorting creativity and like, yeah, like, what do you want me to do?

You're putting your phone in your back pocket and it's recording me looking at your ass

and then you're posting it on TikTok.

Yes.

Yes.

Why did you do that?

Some people literally just go to the gym and take pics.

100%.

Yeah.

It's good lighting, usually.

Yeah.

I just don't know.

You know what I'm talking about.

I know.

Bill Garen's coming on.

Bill Garen's coming on at the top of the hour.

Folks.

I'm trying to think what else is going on, man?

How much?

What else is going on?

Dude, we're going to Vegas on Thursday.

We are doing the siren, I believe, between one of the periods, maybe before the game or

before before the game before we get the first tug.

We got the first tug home by three celebrities of the game.

The biggest z-listers in the world going in and out to Vegas, like a Fiddler's Elbow.

I forgot it was March Madness to that place.

This is going to be absolutely homin.

Oh, it's going to be disgusting.

Yeah.

It's going to be fat peep.

There's going to be so many people with residue all over their fingers.

There's going to be fried foods everywhere.

Sports books are just going to be just jared.

I'm a dudes burping, falling asleep.

Oh, dude.

I didn't think Wake dudes up in the sports book.

Yeah.

That is funny.

Well, yeah, because they got to spend money.

You know what I want to do is I want to go to that, your brother actually mentioned it last

time we were there.

The win buffet.

Is it good?

Have you had it?

I have not went there.

But I know that the Asians love it.

They're usually dialed in on what's actually good and what's not.

Because you can get anything there.

It's like a playground.

You know the food.

I mean, it was crazy.

You know, you can go from, you know, orange chicken right into an omelette.

Yeah.

That's pretty crazy.

It's like a legendary buffet.

They have everything.

And apparently it's kind of cheap.

And the reason I brought up the Asian comment is because they change smoke cigarettes and

don't get cancer from it.

Yeah.

So they just know their way around food and they're always at that buffet.

So we should try that.

Yeah.

I would.

Because you, I mean, it's like I said, I think it's like a mortgage board of just like

they got everything and they got charcoot rebords.

I'm pretty sure they have a couple Coke dealers in there.

I think you can, it's all inclusive too, right?

It's 100 bucks.

I think it's you in the door.

You can just go eat whatever you want.

You can start with dessert.

You go to the omelette guy.

They got the Belgian waffles.

They got the grapes.

Underlined, dust Hawaiian pizza.

I mean it's the options are endless there, he's like wheel on there chicken wings.

Hunger, cheese.

Damn yeah, like some imitation crab, too because it's not real.

What is imitation crab?

It's other fishgy that are acting as a trans fish.

Method actor fish.

So it's like you get imitation crab and you're you're eating like carp.

But what's the point cheaper?

they stuff it in sushi. So a lot of places they'll do imitation crab just because then you know

they can lower their rate on their roll. Yeah it's just a cheap fish into a yeah it's like they say

it's crab. Yeah I mean if you look like if you go pick up like a sushi at a grocery store or you

pick up sushi at a not a great place it'll say like in fine print imitation crab then it'll be like

shellfish, jellyfish, jelly rollfish and then jellyfish. Yeah and then there'll be like a

like piranha. Bro that's disgusting. They put piranha in there too. Yeah man. That is

amazing. That is even piranha. Yeah it's gross. There's something seriously wrong with

the food in this country. It's disgusting. Like dude I'm at Dutch Bros today and I'm not even

kidding. There was a latte called like the cookie butter cream latte with chocolate fudge.

Dude just what? Yeah it was uh I was a butter sign. I actually wrote it down. I was at

butters on Sunday which is just a breakfast spot in Scottsdale and people were funneling

some more pancakes. Like dude come on. Like gross. I'm not trying to be like you're mad

but you should just get executed. You're 422 pounds. You're funneling some more pancakes. You

can't even do just like normal pancakes that are not even good for you with syrup on it.

You get to get some more pancakes dude. How fat are you? They're trying to kill us. That's what

they're trying to do. It's like it's crazy. Okay this is what it was. The cookie blast. I don't

know. The iced brown. This is a real drink. The iced brown butter chocolate chip latte and you

can get a chocolate soft top crunch. Soft top. Just take out an unlicensed hangout and shoot me in

the fucking head if I ever were to that. Yeah. That's insane. How was that giggle? Well how do you

starting your morning with a 3000 calorie coffee? Oh my god and you're sitting behind some

desk all day just farting and then the other one was a fruit punch latte with a sour candy

straw. Yeah you might as well just go over to dairy queen and get yourself an ice cream cake

and muck the entire thing. The straw is candy. Oh dude. Oh. What is going on in this country?

This is nasty. Holy Aaron Carter I want candy. Did he die? No but he was related to Anson.

No he wasn't. And Jimmy. Anson Carter is related to... And Chris. There's a lot of

Carter's out there. Yeah. Carter's a sick name. Who's the guy that's eating babies?

The rapper?

GZ. Is that his last name Carter? No. Weezy's is though. Oh is it? Yeah. Weezy's Akata. Shout out to

a little bit. Carter doc. Carter four. Yeah. Classic. Yeah he's a Carter baby. Yeah the food out here

is fucking it's so disgusting. Yeah you gotta be careful man. The cookie butter crunch. Yeah.

Like what? Yeah the best piece of advice I actually got when it was from a fat nutritionist

ironically was when you go to the grocery store don't shop in the aisles. Generally everything

in the aisles is all shitty for you. So you shop on the outside. That's usually stuff that's

good for you. It's whole foods. It's meat. It's not seed oil stuff. It doesn't have any ditty oil.

Usually that is a general I guess tip of the shopping is if you shop on the outside if you keep

it on the outside of the Indy 500 right. So you walk into like whole foods you got all the fresh

produce the fruits and then you go into the fish the meats and then usually on that other side is

you know stuff that's generally not too bad for you. But if you start diving in just into the guts

of the grocery store here on aisle seven man you're picking up fruit loops you're picking up just

GMO filled granola the next thing you know you muck that whole bag and then you look on the back

and it says only 225 calories and you realize that there's 19 servings of it. Yeah that always

gets me and then you have to pull out your calculator because you're so high and you realize I just

took down 8000 calories of granola. Yeah I don't blame fat people for being fat as fuck it's not

their fault. Everything's very misleading. Yeah well it's a great point. The middle of the grocery

store is a war zone. Oh dude that's yeah I've always kind of been cognizant of that. No I will dive

in because I do need some you know different things but that's usually a good rule of thumb.

All those freezers too there's like four probably more like aisles two to nine are just all frozen

like potato skins and blue bunny ice cream and hoggadaz and fucking dejorno. Yeah I'm nasty.

These are rules. Look it tastes good in your mouth but you can't look me in the face and say

that if you have dejorno and skittles, twix flavored ice cream or whatever you feel good after

that. Like you're on the toilet and it's like affecting your marriage now because she's hearing

what's going on. It's like a disaster. Yeah man you anytime you muck you know what I

for a while there maybe like two or three years ago my kryptonite was those pretzel the peanut butter

filled pretzel bites. You know you muck it is just peanut butter peanut butter is so bad for you

people don't realize how bad peanut butter is for you. This isn't a Gary Brett Kapakas but

it is now think about when peanut butter is it's peanut butter and it just latches on to the

insides of your intestines and it's just this goo that builds up in your midsection of just

disgusting fucking butter that is just oh it's literally just goo inside of you man. How do they

check us into thinking peanut butter is healthy though go the protein because there's one gram

of protein per fucking can, dude. And it's goo. It's literally just goo sitting in your barrel.

Like skippy peanut butter. I mean growing up my mom was actually she wouldn't let us drink soda

which is crazy because I just grew up doing dust and smoke and cigarettes but

Skippy was always in the pantry because it was perceived to be healthy. Yeah well that's the thing

is people like it was so funny there would be people like you you know you're in college you're

playing D1 sports whatever they'll be like oh yeah just go take a scoop of peanut butter

and some guys would just go yo yeah muck it with a spoon and just table spoons of peanut butter.

Oh it's brown butter. It's brown butter that is just ultra processed so many oils in it

preservatives and it just sits in your stomach it just goo. Yeah it's just guys put it on their

ball like it's nasty. Oh yeah peanut butter is nasty. Yeah guys that are you know have dogs

and they're single yeah they put it all over themselves. Why was peanut butter and jelly such an

American thing you know what I mean yeah growing up it's always like peanut butter and jelly and you

have the wonder bread which is like the official bread of racist people and the white wonder bread

the jelly the smuckers yeah none of it even sounds like it should be in your mouth. Smuckers jiffy

and wonder bread. Oh yeah yeah those incrustables too so good. I don't know why that that you know

I don't know why that combination came together it's like lamb and tuna fish as they say in big

daddy I don't know dude I mean it's it's good. It just goes to show how stupid Americans are. It

was good though like in your plan like a hot day you're like a you soccer tournament you need some

sugar peanut butter and jelly. Yeah no it was a it was a classic dude. I think it that it would

kind of like spike your blood pressure a little bit and you know sometimes you get light headed

from being outside and and playing sports I think there was just a quick way to get some calories

in you. We got to have the most jammers per capita in the world. Oh yeah like America must be we

are the Michael Jordan of heart attack. Yeah yeah I was actually looking the other day I just

on the US map looking at the continental lower 48 I was looking at the heart attack heart attack belt

because there's the silicone belt which stretches you know through Florida right through the

Bible belt of Dallas and then in the Scottsdale up through Newport Beach in the Diddywood but

the you'll elaborate on what that is for the silicone belt. Yeah the silicone belt is just the

fake set belt. You know there's the Bible belt the silicone belt is where people get bolt on

for more or less jammers or nukes. You're still not even speaking English right now.

Let me get it installed. So fake sets fake sets are silicone you know titties. So the silicone belt

where the most fake sets are starts in Florida starts in Miami goes over to Tampa Bay then it

goes into Dallas Texas which is a sneaky hotbed for silicone. Yeah a lot of fake tips there.

Goes into well Scottsdale Arizona just to the west finishes off up to Newport Beach right through

Diddywood so it's kind of just like it's almost like a upside down J if you will. Yeah it's just a

belt of women. Yeah you nailed it. It's just and Scottsdale like girls get fake tips for their

Kentanyara. Yeah they have dude I saw like you had a graduation party.

You're 18 year olds yeah with fake tips. I'm not looking at them but it's just that's like the

culture here. Yes so yeah I would say that is that's the silicone belt the heart attack belt we

can get to but folks without further ado the pride of Boston Massachusetts team USA general manager

working now trying to win a Stanley Cup for the Minnesota Wild as the general manager

well this is hockey royalty Bob this is a big one for us please welcome to the stage

William Garen Billy G how are we doing brother thank you for taking the time to come on

the biggest hockey show in Northeast Scottsdale. Oh that's that's what I've heard that's all I hear

this is the biggest hockey show so thanks for having me on. Yeah no we we were talking to your

people the PR team and we're like hey we're not going to hit Billy with any of the hard hitting

questions we're not going to ask him to start up a day here in Minnesota we just want to talk

about simply just things all things hockey so where are we at right now Billy are we on the road?

Yeah we are in Tampa okay nice we play the lightning tonight then we go to play the panthers

and we go play the Bruins um but my my son texted me the last night he said are you going on

home by three tomorrow you guys those guys are fucking awesome yeah so yeah big fat yeah we appreciate

that man and and we just want to you know just take it back a little bit and talk you know a

little bit about the Olympics and things like that and like you know I thought the coolest

quote coming out of that because we were over there for about 10 days watching boys play snap

it around and you know obviously Sully you work closely with him dating back to your Pittsburgh days

and when you're assembling that team Billy like Sully's quote after the tournament was we have

you know a lot of whiskey drinkers on our team so how do you really dive into to find in you know

that balance of like glue guys heart and soul kind of guys guys that'll sit around you know late

night and you know have a one rock old fashioned like versus you know maybe some milk drinkers like

is that just you know doing your pre scout your due diligence yeah and you know what it was great

because we had the four nations year before so we kind of got a good look under the hood on

on all these guys um you know we all have different different ideas of what it takes to win or

what can win but you know Mike and I are pretty in line on on what we think because we've been through

it together before and you you can't you can't go into this uh high stakes hockey uh you know

Olympic hockey Stanley Cup finals all that stuff and be feina you know be feina heart like you've got

a you know what you got to be that whiskey drinking cowboy at the end of the bar ready for a fight

at a moments notice and you know I I love the analogy I mean it's great you know you can't

you just can't have too many or any milk drinkers and um you know except for Slaven of course he

keeps but um yeah you just need guys that are ready to just get in the fight

yeah a hundred percent speaking and getting in the fight bill it's nice to meet you over the

internet um when you played for the islanders I grew up watching the islanders and um not to make

this entire show about me but it was right around when I was in middle school and basically um

you know I was just dealing with one of my parents was taking me to court all the time to make

fall statements against my other parent and there's a bunch of domestic stuff going on so I was an

angry kid and I need an outlet and that like Islander hockey team the islanders that you're the

captain of really got me into hockey and it was an outlet for me I'm like you know what I

I fucking love this sport I'm gonna play so I started playing um for the worst double 18 my

long island and uh I just fell in love with the sport because of how gritty it is how you can

get in the corners you know hit somebody and take out that aggression so that was big for me

and you were like one of the probably most memorable power forwards for me so I want to know like

how the hell did you play 18 seasons with that physical style like were you playing banged up

did you just get lucky and not get hurt that much like how did you how did you have that longevity

in the league playing the style you played yeah well first of all I'm glad the game was good to you

in that way because I can't imagine how how tough that was but uh hockey's a great game for you

know I look I was I was a crazy kid and hockey was the one place where I could get my my uh my

energy out my anger and all that stuff but it was it's just such a great game and you know as

for playing the style that I played um you know I was a Bruins fan growing up and I loved

Terry O'Reilly uh loved Cam Nilly just wanted to be that type of player and um you know if you

last that long you you you learn how to handle yourself you learn how to protect yourself um and

then you get lucky too you know I had I did have some injuries along the way uh but nothing that

that really um you know kept me out like for a full year or anything like that I never missed

a full year I missed you know but you got to be lucky too and um you know you learn I think the

biggest thing is you learn how to protect yourself you know who's out there who's going to come

for the big hit uh use your stick to protect yourself use your elbows to protect yourself and then

be able to protect yourself in a in a fight yeah Billy speaking of using your stick I wanted to ask

you now we have this saying on our show and it kind of bled into actually the team USA lock

when we're fortunate to be buddies with some of those guys um it's a saying that doesn't really

make sense but we've kind of brought it to our show and it's taken a life of its own is that's

baseball now I'm gonna take you back to the Dallas stars training back to the day my son said

and the taxi goes that's baseball and I'm like what what are you talking about yeah so now this

is making sense all right yeah yeah we just basically you know anything can happen in life you just

chalk it up to that's baseball right so it's a saying that yeah you gotta yeah I dropped it

in the near view we got a bunch of guys saying that my brother said at the other night in the game

after he scored two goals um but I wanted to ask you about that play you're speaking of using

your stick and talk about the definition of baseball take me back to that training camp when

you just absolutely went hacksaw gym dugins on a guy and just tomahawked him right across the

chin um Billy that's how you bring the criminal element and I love that and I would have been

scared shitless of you probably for my entire career if I was on the other side of that uh yeah

just maybe a little misjudgment on my on my part or a little knee jerk reaction maybe

maybe went off the rails a little bit but my first camp with Dallas you know just signed a

big free agent contract I was all charged up and ready to go and I just didn't like the way

the kid took a run at me or felt he took a run at me and I just uh that's old school NHL

reacted the way I reacted and it was like we were up in Breckenridge Colorado and like there was

no media there except for one day the one day RDS uh from Quebec came down to film our training

camp they they caught that hunt oh that's baseball though honestly I think well I think the media

should be not allowed in the ring for times like that like got you know what I'm saying like

there's just too much media now yeah it's just crazy like it just can't you can't hide you can't

hide no you like they're in the showers these days it's like it's overkill everything's getting

micro dissected um but yeah I that play it just cracks me up I I tweeted a couple of times I'm

sorry I just love the the aggression like that's hockey it's a gladiator sport like we always

talk about like people forget sometimes like the sport is uh it's meant to be intimidating it's

physical um but I kind of want to switch gears real quick I loved what you said when uh you sat

down with Carill and you said he better be happy I just love that you kind of just said what was

on your mind like that when there's a negotiation going on for the number 17 million like what's the

are you hearing that here's like Jesus or like how how does that work because that's a huge number

not a lot of GMs would have the balls to to sign a guy to a ticket like that like what's the

thought process when you're here in the number 17 no that's a lot of money but but krill's an elite

player he's he's one of the best players in the league and look he he had he had leverage

and they used it and you have to weigh the hey what what's better is it better to pay

krill 17 million or is it better letting him walk yeah so paying the money like that

we're just better with him here and and they're I mean we could have let him walk with then

then that would have that would have put us way back way back like years and we've been working hard

to you know for the last seven years to to get us to where we are and keep building and krill's

been a big part of that and you know the the caps going up we'll figure it out it's you know

hockey's hockey's in a really good spot you know the the you know revenues are doing a great

teams are you know mark markets are having success and the popularity of the games going so

you know I did what I had to do to keep them yeah I love that I feel like you're you're damned if

you do you damned if you don't but in this case I think like that's the right decision for I mean

I don't know shit about anything but I love that I love the signing and then like when

you's coming in like it's just an electric roster now it's I love the way that like you kind of

hey we're gonna keep this electric hockey player on our team and I think it's gonna work out but

yeah I just I guess being in Arizona I was so used to seeing the coyotes not want to pay guys

it's kind of it's it's awesome seeing guys get paid it's out it all stems you know starts at the

top it stems from ownership and and Craig Leopold's great owner he he wants to win and there's a

difference between wanting to win and then doing whatever it takes to win and you know what Craig

Craig's an owner that is willing to do whatever it takes to win and that means

that means paying paying players a certain amount of money and and I have to figure that out

and how the puzzle works but Craig's willing to put the money in yeah Billy I just wanted to

to kind of parlay that and and just say you know I respect so much what you do you you put your nuts

on the line you one would say you even wheel barrel them in at times and and just the move you made

with with Quinn Hughes I mean fortune does favor the bowl that I just you know like anything

like gambling or whatever you're not going to get rich or win playing you know minimum five

dollar hands you you got to go Johnny Channing and go all in and just I want you to talk about Quinn

Hughes because I mean I you know I'd watch the kid of a bunch obviously being out here on the

West Coast you catch late games but you get him in you know I would say just a U.S. market you're

able to see him more I mean this dude is incredible like the way he can just twirl and just twinkle

toe his way around these I think it's obviously elevated favors game to even push to be better like

that kid man he's he's unbelievable like I mean yeah it can glaze them all day but he's he's

truly insane yeah somebody asked me a question like what's the one thing that you've learned about

Clint since he's got in Minnesota my answer was he's better than I thought like I knew he was good

is he is so good I mean like elite like elite like I he can control the pace of the game like you

just see just he's a step ahead his executions incredible his skating yeah he's just a he's a he's

a unbelievable hockey player like he and he has done so much for our team like you said like when

him him and faves are we're playing together like you could see like faves kind of like light up

and be like oh wow like I can you can skate like that and like kind of move and then next thing you

know faves is shot out of a cannon like every game up in the play like join in the rush all that's

and then you know the forwards are are you know just have another puck move indeed that's elite like

getting it on their tape getting us up ice he he's really and then power plays like he's ridiculous

and willing to shoot the puck which I which I love but he's done so much for our team and our

market the fan base like I think we're we're backed up we like with Quinn Hughes jersey orders

by like 700 holy shit like it's great like it's insane and it's uh yeah it's awesome having

he's been great for us yeah and I just want to and you know you got the superstar power now I think

you know at times and years past people would maybe criticize Minnesota for for being a boring club

that's not the case anymore but Billy I just think though the one cool move in a subtle thing

you did right when you got there was you locked up a lot of your guys in your middle six the

Falinos the Hartmans the guys that are just you know willing to go to war every night right and

Hartman's a friend of the show he played at the Chicago mission same as me growing up and I love

this dude we always talk about it Billy over here well first of all you got to keep your chin tucked

and you got to have a granite chin to play in the league and Hart sees one of those guys that can

just slot all around your lineup and you know he's he's the first guy in the fight he's got a little

bit of rat nastiness to him but just talk about that player how how just he's just such a key piece

he's like a utility player you can play anywhere in the field if we're talking baseball and he's

got a heavy chin too yeah I mean that's baseball it is no you nailed it Hartsy is a

Hartsy is just a miserable little chroma genie prick yeah he is and I and I and I say that with all

love for the kid like I just yeah he just he just arrives to the rank in a bad mood and he's like

plays with that edge and he's a prick he really is and the thing that I love about him is that he

shows up when the stakes are the highest he gets better as the stakes get higher and as we move on

during the year his game picks up because he won't he's that guy he's a whiskey drinker yeah and

that's what you need and you know I think he's had a really good year for us and yeah he's he's

one of the guys that's got the you know the heart he doesn't say he doesn't say anything he just

lets his he lets his actions you know speak for themselves and but yeah he's a big part of

uh big part of our team would you say like in player interviews you'd rather have a guy that's

like that than a guy that's a little bit too nice like maybe he holds the door for you on the way

in the office like ah this kid's too nice would you rather have a guy show up just so fucking pissed

like yeah like that so that's better yes so for example you want listen um that's the one thing

like our guys like they're like even guy like heartsy they're they're gentlemen you know like

they treat people great they're there's no there's no room for that there's no room for

for like a true asshole like you want these guys they're they're gentlemen they treat everybody

properly and you know um all that stuff they're good guys but then you know you want them arrive

into the rank with a chip on their shoulder and and um you know he does that each and every night

and it's it's it's if he doesn't play like that he's not as effective and we've talked about that

before him and I have had a lot of conversations same with Felino um you have to play a certain way

to be effective I know because I was at same type player I wanted hey look I wanted to dangle and be

like you know the skilled guy and wheel around the perimeter I just wasn't good enough to do that

wasn't that wasn't the type of player I was I had to get in the corners and in front of the net

and play physical and hit and all that stuff to have success and and you know guys guys like that

they they just need reminders every now and then but those are the guys that I I really like

yeah it's almost like you need them to have that switch that just turns on and off like when

they get it's almost like you want to maybe recruit bipolar kids almost like you want to but make

sure they're respectful gentlemen but also make sure that like if you know they're going to flip

the puck over the D's head and then just crush them in the corner because you know they somebody

was rear-rending them on the way to the rank like you know what I'm saying so yeah I feel like

that's a big big big big big big yeah they have a switch and you know

hearts you've done a good job of kind of controlling when that switch goes off or when that

you know controlling his temperate times and not crossing the line but you

when you have that it's it's it's it's it's just another club in your bag you know it's

just another tool you can use you know to to you know get the better your opponent

for sure that's why I think McKenna stock went up yeah oh yeah yeah I mean there was questions

is he gonna be first overall after that happens 100% I'm taking first right absolutely yeah I just

think the look if he was just out drinking and did it randomly that's one thing when you're

protecting your mom or standing up for your mom and your family that's another thing like that

that to me is the sign of character and and and encourage yeah yeah I know no kidding

Billy I wanted to ask you you know I just kind of backing up to your playing days a little bit now

you're obviously a manager yourself what did you learn from a guy like the Providence Gangster

Lou Lamarillo back in the day when you're New Jersey days other than having to shave your face and

your bush what did you learn from him you know what I mean like that guy is as gangster as it

gets man yeah yeah he's you know Lou's been a friend in a mentor for you know close to 40 years

now and I learned I learned a lot from him like as a player it's it's not about you it's not about

you it's about the team and it's about winning that's it and we have to have discipline we have to

we have to sacrifice we have to do certain things in order to help us win and then post-playing

career he's really helped me you know as a GM you know every step of the way from my first

for my first year to even now he's you know he's he's not a general manager anymore but he's

still somebody that I call to to balance things off of like he helped me you know with I had hard

decisions to make with the Olympic team he's he's one of the guys that I called to get you know

advice from and you know what make your decision put everybody else in the rearview mirror and

move on and stand by it and yeah there's no there's no better mentor to have than than him and

I always say he's the most loyal person like I I played for him for almost seven years

if I ever got a jam in any city any country in the world and you call him he's gonna

help you out and get you out of it he's he's he's just he's just that way like

he if there's something wrong with in in your family or your personal life and you don't call

him he's gonna be pissed at you because he wants to help you and that's for anybody like he's

just he's just he's there's I know the the reputation of of of Lou but when you when you peel things

back he is he's there for you man he's got a huge heart yeah those guys are hard to find too like

my uncle used to be like that when I wanted to skip high school you you would pick me up I just

call him and you would pick me up drunk as hell but I still enjoyed this school and he was there for me

but anyway that Olympic roster I was gonna ask you how fun is that to assemble obviously you don't

have to deal with a cap you get a selection of just incredible players is it fun to do is it more

stressful to do because some guys are gonna get snubbed how does that process roll out for you I

mean there's you know there's gonna be snub every time you're picking the world's best but what

does that process like when does it start I'm pretty bad interviewing so I don't know how to

cap off that question but yeah I just wanted to hear your thoughts on that now you're doing fine

you're doing fine you're thank you now you know what it was fun it was a lot of fun

there you know what the I don't think anybody got snubbed listen there were there was a lot of

thought and process that went into these decisions like the guys that didn't get picked it's not

like they were never considered or not talked about or just cast aside that's not true like

we probably put more time into those guys than than anyone because we had to make the

tough decision but going back to it it was a blast I got to work with some amazing people some my

general manager peers and the coaching staff and people from USA hockey it was awesome

and the camaraderie that we had as a staff was was great some of the dinners that we would have were

just not stopped laughter and just comedy it was just it was great and then you know it was kind

of funny like make the decisions then you got away you got away you got away and then you're at

the Olympics you're like oh shit really hope we did this right and we did so it was it was a lot

of fun a great experience and I'll never forget it was it was really incredible yeah Billy when

you're having those hot stoves and maybe the rouges is flown or the whiskey and you're making

trying to make these decisions on certain guys does it ever come to blows where you know a guy is

lobbying for one player and you know it turns into kind of a motherfucking match or is it pretty you

know do we keep it gentleman's code or it's like you know it can get hostile and because ultimately

you want guys around you that are going to give you a pushback and you know strive to to make

this team what it is and to win a championship so I was just curious like does it

is it ever get heated in those and in for the right way obviously yeah it was martinis yeah

or was as we've called my my my daughter nicknamed my my martini soul takers because they

they take your soul they're so strong so the whole you know we got Julian Keller on him now

um but there are no no like no there's no like FU matches I don't I don't believe in that I don't

yeah I feel that's counterproductive like if you're if you're disrespecting each other that much

that you're going to be yelling and motherfucking each other like that that that that that works

against the group so no but they were like these guys would you know it's more like hey well what

about this what about this how about this guy he does this they would challenge me on on all the

decisions you know some they look you know there was what five of us and you know two two would

agree with me and two wouldn't or three wouldn't and yeah they they would question and they would

challenge like you know we we just have great conversations and like just because you're the GM

doesn't mean you think of everything or know everything so there are things that are going on in

their mind that that I you know I can't I can't read so they'd say it and it's like oh wow okay

I hadn't thought of that but then you so you have you have myself you have Chris Keller who was our

director of player personnel then you have Stan Bowman those you know Chris Surrey and top

this Gerald all these general managers who all have a different way of thinking all their they all

we all have our own style we all have our own thought process and stuff like that but if you you

put us together as a group it it was it was pretty cool pretty cool to be a part of and and

hear everybody and how they think was there ever a time where you guys were on the martinis and

you're arguing for one player and then you wake up the next day like ass shit like I was just drunk

like maybe they're right about that guy no no maybe that's got to be a fun process though like

you know yeah it's got to be it was a blast it was like that's what I mean like the camaraderie

and the chemistry between the group hold on once say

that was so funny if team USA was assembled and they were all shit faced when they made the team

yeah it worked on the soul takers you should come up with a drink the soul taker the

Billy gear at the excel center yeah the Billy gear and the Billy G soul taker the soul taker it would

be a rock on rock they're selling that yeah they're just they're selling those at the the

well it's not the excel anymore but it's the casino arena and everyone's just getting

stretched out of there after the second period my soul my daughter Grace took a sip and she goes

Jesus yeah she's like these things take your soul away though like that that Christmas my kids

got me martini glasses that had soul taker etched in the side that is unreal they should make

that a drink they should yeah yeah she should can that up Billy we don't want to take too much

of your time brother my last one for you is this playoff format night to be the best you got

ultimately beat the best but you know do you do you agree with this this playoff format that the

NHL is running right now obviously got to play in division or you're more of an old school guy

with one to eight you know I'm hitting with the heavy hitters over here and I'm gonna clip this

and send it right to Gary Bruce Batman so yeah it's one of those things that you you listen we

chop these things up at the GM meetings too when we talk about it um yeah I mean look at I

I would probably go one through eight but again nothing guarantees you a win the only thing

I was saying is just it just happens at this year you know we've got these three teams in one

division who are going to play against each other and someone's gonna go home early and we

but like again if we went one through eight who we're going to play a good team that has the

ability to knock us out anyway so yeah it almost doesn't you gotta I've always said this too be

careful what you wish for yeah because that's like I said it just doesn't get it doesn't guarantee you

anything but yeah one would say it doesn't really guarantee you you know something

that's ball that is baseball that is baseball I'm gonna use that a lot now yeah yeah you're gonna have

to hit it in your next interview just just drop of that space ball you know it's that's kind of like

run burgundy like when in Rome like yeah I don't really know when to use it yet yeah but you'll

figure it out yeah you'll you you're already using it good you know I mean that that first one

was a natural drop you had you just you know you paused and you just that's baseball so it was great

Bobby got anything else no I don't want to take up too much of your time Bill thank you for

coming on and giving us the time of day like I said man I learned your team that got me so into hockey

as a kid so I appreciate that and no thanks for coming on this is huge for us and it was a lot of fun

yeah thanks for having me on fellas it's uh I like your show it's a lot of fun

appreciate it Bill yeah thanks a lot and I will be cheering for the wild my friends so thanks

again bro appreciate it you guys get yourself a soul taker right after this yeah we will

yeah we want to ride to the bar 100% all right take care see you boys

folks that was Bill Garen on home by three what a legend absolute legend yeah

soul takers talking about that's a great question you have where you know you decide on a player

and you're a little drunk and you wake up and you don't know if you were just drunk talking

out of your ass or you really stuck by your point and he was like nah uh maybe yeah like what

if you're hammered on martinis and you're like you're you're like someone's like hey Jason Robertson

should be on the team and you're so drunk you're like he's not even American and they're like

yet he is he's just Asian but he's American and then you wake up the next day like

fuck yeah stop Asian hate he is American um but yeah what a legend uh that was cool sometimes like

in the he the moment like I I'm not that good of interviewing so I don't know if it gets out but

that's what I was trying to say like yeah like if you're at dinner and you're having some mind

erasers some soul takers and you're like really high on a guy and you just you're not gonna back

down and then next day you're like you know what color uh you're right um

someone so should be on this team imagine how well like oh oh just fun that would be though like

be awesome dude you're you're literally just you're just picking out like your favorite cars ever

and just like it's just like a it's like a video game dude you're like all right yeah uh you're

just citing on like coalcoff field or Clayton Keller like both are amazing players like

coalcoff is got 43 goals this year he wasn't even on the team and then you know Clayton Keller is

a guy that had 90 points last year it's just so funny to think about like your fringe players are

you know some of these guys are like borderline hall of femurs what it's all said and done

I like what he said about how there's no snubs because that's such a fan perspective and like me

as a fan you could say like oh this guy got snub I actually kind of I agree with them in that

like it like dude they're not just snubs because a snub would be somebody that is disregarded or

disrespected what he's saying from what I took from that is that no one snub like they put a lot

of thought into this yeah the team was built intentionally there wasn't a guy that there's like

ah you know what I mean but it's hard it's fucking I can't imagine they should extend the roster

it's like make it 30 guys have two teams have two of them have a beat division yeah put Italy in

there Italy just every international Italy team no one's Italian no it was so fun I mean the one

kid I actually play with with the Marley's for a cup of coffee he was actually playing for the

Newfoundland growlers um he was kind enough to have us at his table at the dolomite there was

uh Matt Bradley Matt Bradley was playing for the Italian team a guy named Matthew Brad Matthew Bradley

dude international team yeah I didn't like the baseball dude the baseball didn't they beat like

Venice or Japan uh the Italian baseball team beat somebody good yeah they they well they were in

the semi-final they were playing uh Venice for them but they beat somebody south american before

that yeah like whoa whoa I was like there's no way this team is Italian you're looking it up it's

like all the guys are from Georgia and Alabama yeah now a ton of guys even just from like upstate

New York some Rome New York yeah what pita lawnsles on this team I thought he only does home run derby's

like you can't you can't be on team Italy baseball just because you grew up a little bit Italian no

I yeah and you'd like a chicken cull it like congrats yeah noona has a really good sauce we get it

your dad cheats on your mom yeah we he's a hothead and he does dust dude speaking of hotheads

and doing dust I'm actually kind of tired of seeing dudes disrespect their wife and public yeah I've

been seeing it everywhere we saw it in Miami which is common um I saw it the other day here

it's like dudes are and like they're always like these like ugly fat guys like just berating their

wife and I was like with a really shiny gold chain yeah and it's like I'm not trying to

pander to women right now because a lot of kids are like oh dude I hope she sees his bro

I'm just tired of saying it like bro that's your wife yeah I wouldn't say like oh it's degrading

stop degrading your wife yeah before I step in and I start dating her you step in you get knocked out

I get flat lined on the sidewalk you get the sole takeer right to your chin oh my god I get flat

lined outside of a penelope there's nothing worse than when the guy steps into a fight and he's

doing it for the right reasons and he gets absolutely packed I would never step into fights I don't

know fuck no hell no hell no the last thing you do if you see a street fight is getting involved remember

in Dallas yeah there's two homeless guys oh my god I was I was scared just like across the street

yeah dude they were just swinging at each other's chin and a guy got like crippled and he falls

down gets back up it was outside of that hoors yeah and you just don't get involved in fights

what do you do though like your you see a chick getting mugged uh you turn your head and look the

other way my arms get you I don't know but it depends on the guy yeah because the cops are

going to show up you know probably not was in at least three three to five minutes in Los Angeles

they want to show up in all the liberal cities they're not even going to be there you called 911

not Los Angeles that actually hot roads you to an uber each driver yeah they put you on hold yeah

they like hold sure is this an emergency okay hold no someone's dying okay um do you want

jack in the box or in and out you call 911 and they ask you if you'd rather have a call back

yeah there's a long wait time but I don't know if I saw a girl getting mugged or rob I would

probably you have to say like if he's by yourself I'm trying to do so I think if it's dude dude

on dude unless it's a let's just like a huge black guy like in this looks like a huge advantage

the guy like I feel like you got to you got to do something I'll go over there and be like come on

I'm gonna take my shit yeah here you go here's my and then you just go in wallet card and cancel it

right after right yeah I would try to help her especially if she was hot yeah give her give the

dude like your social security try to get laid from it yeah yeah yeah you want to get out of here

oh no I just got sucker punched I want to go to the hospital no you got to help out a chick I

give she's getting you got to help chicks in general like because they're just man it would be so

terrifying to be a girl these days um pretty much all the days actually I told you a story

about my mom in a UCF yeah oh my god I don't know she wants you me saying this on the air but

basically got stalked and something really bad almost happened but yeah that's then that's

the back of the days with no cell phone no no internet that's the days we could really kill people

and she couldn't lock her door because her roommate was still at the bar and you can't there's no

cell phones it's not like hey I'll call you come open the door or whatever reason her roommate

didn't have a key we're not gonna spend a lot of time on this but someone intruded in the house

and it's just hard like that's dude that is crazy I can't I if the dude did that to me and I'm a dude

I'm scared yeah I'll be like I think you just got to go full gay with it will you say you lock

your bedroom even too right oh I lock up yeah I lock the fuck well dude I've had so much shit

broken into yeah I know I would too you got a lock I can't believe you don't lock your bedroom door

that's crazy to me well the thing is is they got to get through the front building then they got

to get up the elevator it would have to be like a literally a staged attack man you know I mean

like but you I guess you don't know that that door though is pretty sick it is a you do have a good

door I got a good door it's not like you know you're you'd have to literally take like a fucking like

a metal TPX rubber drop three bat to that thing yeah still CNT in the back of the day like 32 29

drop three um but yeah you know I mean it goes you never know dude I mean fuck people are crazy

out there there's bad dust there's good dust there's yeah there's soul snatchers that's it

it was soul snatcher right mm-hmm okay I keep thinking soul taker it was soul snatcher

soul taker soul taker okay yeah soul taker yeah that's a great name for a drink too yeah

yeah especially for a GM have six of those and make a trade yeah I love how open you was like

yeah we want guys are like Ryan Hartman comes to the rink he's fucking pissed yeah like that I know

right I've always had that thought though and we've talked about it before but you you can't have

too many good guys like you can't have two if you want to win a championship in hockey you can't

be too good of a guy yeah you can't have like a bunch of like I don't want to I wasn't gonna say

to leave and I was gonna say somebody else but you could have one or two slavans but I'm just saying

you can't have too many good dudes you have to have some criminals on your team that's just how it

works in hockey when the stakes get raised I mean like a medic a truck man you got to have some

of Andrew Keynes some of the times it depends yes and his girlfriends on the glass no you I would

I don't know about that I wish he was at that random game in Detroit oh it's funny anyways

it's always good it's always a good sign when your relationship is getting so bad that it's on

Instagram live like multiple times a week always fight for custody of your kids publicly yeah well

always settle your domestic disputes publicly yeah like if my parents at Instagram live oh my god

they'd be probably famous by now yeah I mean there's that was like AB 2 when he was going through

his shit like you just always go live go live you're not kids bitch let the world know man that's

that's smart it's it's a very mature way to hash things out all then everyone sees it

because then you have some video game evidence man it's you you always have to have tape whether

it's sex game film domestics always manipulate always go live it's like when you get pulled over

by a cop you have gas late the cop you know and then when he gets mad then you click record yeah and

then you're like look at this cop he's mad for no reason I can't believe this even though you

just resisted arrest for 45 minutes and now he's bashing in your window but the smart thing to do

is click record right after you bait and switch him now he's the bad guy now he's a bad guy now it's

racial well you're a hundred percent Caucasian I should ask him about that Minnesota I because

tourism's got to be down with ice with fucking small things like and he's by signing Carole by

having Quinn he's on the team by making this team electric he's counteracting all the bad shit

that's going on in Minnesota so in a way they're bringing Minnesota back I mean I would go on I'm

not trying to glaze the guy but I would go on the record and say Billy gear and

has single-handedly increased the Minnesota wild franchise value by a couple hundred million

just making that critical freeze-off signing now you had to sign them for one one 40 but the

longevity now if he gets Quinn Hughes that valuation of that team if he gets him long term yeah that

team is worth at easily another 300 million yeah like Billy gear might be the most underpaid guy

in the league is what I'm trying to say I don't think it's glazing them so one of the

the chat I fucking read oh you're glazing them when I was telling him that like his style play when

he was the captain of the Islander drew me into hockey I'm like I'm just being an honest guy like

yeah I'm saying fuck you but can't compliment guys anymore it's crazy you can't even compliment

and do it anymore like dude you're bouncing on it well first of all what's that even you're doing

tricks on it what do you mean I'm doing tricks on it I'm I'm just extending

positive affirmations to another man that has nothing to do with me bouncing on just dick no

don't people just look for anything can't even compliment dudes anymore bring back

complimenting guys like but would you agree with that though he would be if he gets Quinn Hughes

signed long term he's the most underpaid guy in the league whatever that franchise valuation

like it literally will go up 300 million and then you know what you do after that you find a way to get

ready to control you get one more center that's what you need Matthews you get Matthews

to come there I want Matthews to go Salt Lake City dude that would be it I see he aligns with Ryan

Smith did I tweet that I don't I don't know if you don't know I don't think I did but you're thinking

out I was thinking that the other day when I was talking to my brother after the game and

sound like we're trying to recruit him now that he signed an eight by eight we're not tampering

but I was just thinking get Matthews and then you know he go get you go get JB snow for your

holy dude I would love to expect of a Melco but no but you know Bennington is Bennington

business of business that's porn man imagine they got imagine like would you do now let's

say we're talking a ton of hockey would you do if you're you tell would you do

coolie and a piece for Matthews yes yes but it is tough to get rid of coolie I know but I'm

nasty and I love that he talk about guys chip on shoulder yes but I'm just saying like if you

want to go get a tone you're gonna have to give up probably coolie because he's a centerman

and then probably give up honestly probably something else whether it's prospects or picks but

that would be the big piece going the other way yeah I would do it I mean the guy scored 69

fucking goals get him out of Canada and I know we have a lot of Canadian listeners but like

you guys have to look in the mirror and understand where I don't even know what that

you got to understand just get the mirror and get naked and sometimes you just have to get naked

and look at yourself in the mirror while you're naked not a lot of people could do that people are

eating peanut butter and cookie lattes and people are afraid of themselves naked yeah yeah they are

how about this and we can go over the patreon too soon but my last hot about that my last hockey

bit is James Haggins signing they could just be runes escape in the ATO I didn't understand that

I didn't I'm not like I said I've watched like three games this year what so they didn't sign them

directly to NHL because it would burn a year of his contract so game of amateur tryout so you sign

the ATO and then you know if he plays well in the Providence to the point where they think he could

be an NHL option come playoff time you sign to an NHL deal but that now kicks in and burns

a year so his entry-level contract would become two years instead of three so the Bruins

are being cheap well it's just the classic Bruins are like yeah well we did this with McAvoy back in

2015 we did this with you know so and so a pasta played the A version on played the A yet version

on played the A in 2003 James Haggins is a seventh overall pick just throw him into the fire and see

if he can play like bro just sign the kid well he's not going to be I would say he's better than

Lucas Rikle right now who's playing for the Bruins no releasing the Jack I go no or Kirby

Rikle call up Jake Smalls bro sign him call up fucking Jake Smalls we're not trying to tamper on

here but so essentially what you're saying is the Bruins are being cheap bucks well it's just a way

for them to control the player for more years as a restricted free agent I don't like that because

if they don't sign them now that he can just write it out you know if you sign an ATO and it's

never been done before but if you sign an amateur trial as a guy coming out of college and you

don't sign the NHL deal theoretically you could go back to college what yeah because it's you're

not getting paid but it's an amateur trial playing in games yeah what it's an it's an ATO it's like

a adult film that you do at home you know you don't get paid for it but you upload it online you

could get paid for it yeah if it gets enough use so or what's the situation where he can go

full Jimmy V.C. and hold out on 19 different teams yeah then I say that with respect he would

have to wait till his senior year till three okay so three years are up yeah because like V.C. signed

after his senior year so yeah after you're drafted in college you get you get it's it's four years

until you're free agent so he wouldn't want to do that because I mean the kids seventh overall

pick he's got nothing to prove at that level yeah the Bruins just they they that organization is

mind-boggling to me and I've talked to Grinnelly about it before especially with the whole March

anthem and because Grinnelly's obviously super passionate about the team and all that and there's

so many things that they do that and I'm a dumbass but I look at it and I'm just like I don't

understand that yeah they nickel and dime I just don't understand it though yeah okay I don't it's

not working no it's the last time they won a cup 2011 yep that's 50 years ago 100% in TikTok time

that's that's 200 years ago whatever they're doing is not working most kids on TikTok weren't even

born in 2011 dude does a kid that won a Miami Open Match he was born in oh nine Jesus wait no

there's oh seven no it was oh nine oh nine this year qualifier on I was like what's that's insane

dude that's seven years after the big 9-11 or eight years but yeah that's fucked but yeah that

sucks for that hey if you're Hagen are you rattled at that well it's just you don't I mean you

want to get the relationship off to a good start you know and I I don't care what you did with

McAvoy and you know it worked out because Tory Krueg ended up getting hurt and McWay came up and it

was inserted into the playoffs and played and POS or not had to spend time in the A and I just think

like man the new NHL is like let's just see what you got and let's who cares if we burn a year if

he can be a valuable piece to our team and come in and he can prove he can play like let's do it and

and people don't really understand Bob the age on the NHL are two different games like this

kid might go down the age on he might struggle but if you put him up with better players than NHL

he might thrive because it's a cleaner game you know like there's a lot of guys I remember I've

been barbershop we were scratching him in the American league I was like this guy it's like around

pick he's fucking never gonna play look at him now he's an absolute horse so I just think like

it's such a different game where when you have elite players like that and especially a guy that

you took seventh overall why not just throw him in the fire yeah I think that you can prove

yourself in the league right away you know you don't have to go that no look at what that Cole

Hudson kids doing he's fucking tearing it up who's that I don't know but he's doing well but that's

that's what it's all about though like putting him into the fire seeing if he can perform well

and then going like from there and I think it says a lot if you take him what seventh you said yeah

and you give him that trust like right away exactly damn dude fuck I love the Bruins I love playing

here bro they put me in the NHL right away like fuck you dude I'm gonna try really hard now right

and and and say like who cares if you have to go back to negotiations a year earlier man you still

control all of his rights he has arbitration yes but like I just like I don't ask to do in this

pussy shit yeah come on see bad I mean now that we're breaking down a ton of hockey but it's just like

you know that's porn dude yeah sometimes talking hockey I get confused because I just don't know

anything anymore yeah you know what I mean like I'm not like focused on I'm not dialed in as I

used to be with like who's getting signed and what's going on like it's just all I gotta say is

be like Bill get it Billy G's a beauty sign capers off the 17 mil and then sit down be like yeah

he better fucking like it cuz it's true yeah and you better play hard and then give Quinn

you 17 and then circumvent the cap through Somalian daycares yes do what the Euler's owner is doing

and somehow pay Mcdaven out of the table for taking 12 and a half because there's no fucking way

that guy's not getting money out of the table why is it mixed even say making 12 why is

Mcstevens making four million bro Mcdaven's worth 35 million dollars here yeah I've got pre-subs

17 with all due respect he's worth double yeah I like the while I gotta say something about the

while I always say that they're in the past I was like oh their business models did not get past

the second round I fully retract those statements what it was it was yeah back in the day yeah

but I just want to be clear that what they're doing right now is really good for hockey it's really

good for the state of Minnesota um Minnesota is getting taken advantage of man it's like

that nice chick that they to do douchebag she's getting cheated on she's getting treated like shit

Minnesota is supposed to be this like wholesome state of hockey where everyone's friendly and now people

are getting shot in the head and traffic and it's just like you know what maybe if the hockey

teams better everything will be better yeah no I agree I agree I hate the state but I love Billy G

all right guys uh we're gonna head over to patreon um we're in Vegas we're the I can't believe
