It's Charles Barkley here with Wayfair.

and grill accessories, Wayfair's got it all

When there's a player like Josh Allen

that makes the game look easy when it isn't.

Yeah, when you see number 17 throwing the ball

the way he does, running with the ball the way he does,

that is the characteristic of a great.

He makes it look simple.

The downside to that is sometimes when you beat your Superman,

you think you can do it on your own

or in some cases you think you have to do it all on your own.

And I think the next step in his character

is trusting in his teammate.

Mantiteo.

Welcome to our show Mantiteo right there.

I'm gonna play the Sammy P card.

Hey, it's March. I don't know.

I have nothing to add.

Football, what's that?

Not today.

Not just the tournament, but the Sabers

continue to amaze.

I know, listen to me.

If I have nothing last night

I was up making mozzarella sticks late in the night.

Oh, well, who wasn't?

Well, I don't know who wasn't.

It's a mozzarella stick season.

Everyone's sorry.

My son had a challenge at school

and he prepped and I did the deep frying

and everything like that, watched the game from the kitchen.

It was really fun to work with him on that.

Yeah, cool.

I'm not a professional.

They did not turn out like you'd expect to see at a restaurant.

I don't have a deep fry or anyway.

Like that's not a move I usually turn to.

But great night.

Helps you to stay up if you're active.

You know, you're working, doing something.

Precisely.

Yeah, but my wife was sitting next to me

on the couch from the time the Saber game started

until it ended.

And if she hadn't been there,

I would have easily fallen asleep.

Not that we're talking through the whole game,

but just like her being there.

At one point I did sort of put the head back

and I'm like this and she's like,

what are you doing?

I'm like just resting.

That's not a good idea.

That's the end.

I thought to myself, I'd better stop resting

and I sat right back up.

If she hadn't been there, I would have definitely faded.

Hey y'all, it's Kelly Clarkson with Wayfair.

Ever order furniture online and wonder what if?

Like, what if it is a bit?

Little to the left, the width.

Yep, should have gone with Wayfair.

Or what if it doesn't hold up?

That's so far was four days old.

Should have ordered from Wayfair.

Or what if it's that material that makes that noise?

It was a sofa, I swear.

With Wayfair, there's no what it.

Just style you love, quality you can trust,

and furniture that actually fits your life.

But once that starts, you're done.

Yeah, there's no resting at like 11.30 night.

You're not getting a nap?

And it closed my eyes during the second intermission

and wake up for the third?

Nah, yeah, no, never works.

But I didn't want to turn it off, right?

I mean, three nothing, going into the third,

like, I want to, there's so much fun to watch.

I guess I don't want to miss it.

Let's go to Matt here, I'm at.

Hey guys, thanks for taking the call.

You're welcome.

Callin' in from the bullpen here,

but just wanted to talk about the Sabers

and as everybody has.

Just how refreshing it's been.

I mean, everyone said this already,

but they've just been so draining,

my entire adult life has just been

to missing the playoffs, I'm 31.

So finally, I have to try and figure out

how I can plan around work and things

I worked straight afternoons.

So now I have playoff games, I need to watch.

They're must see TV right now.

And I know I'm thinking a little ahead to the playoffs,

but I just the last time they were good,

I was not 18 and I remember being at the party

and the plaza and the last one of those,

I was at was, I got to remember it,

when Boychuk flash Vannex and E against Boston

and they knew they had to take Vannex out

because he was a Bruin killer,

but just throw back there.

And also how they're winning games this year,

especially lately, the last 40 games in different ways.

They're having Barnburner games,

they're playing tight, two to one, two nothing

like the other night, goalie stealing games,

they're coming back from behind

and then they're blowing teams out too.

And it's just like, there's so many different ways

they're playing.

I can't see, it sounds crazy.

I almost can't see how they could lose a series against the team.

I know that's insane, but it's like,

what can't they do, however, a team wants to play,

it's like they can match it.

And they have a lot of good problems.

They have a good goal tending problem,

they have a good defense problem in a way,

like they have too many defensemen that are ready to go

and the good problems to have, right?

So that's kind of all I had to say, but thank you.

All right, good job, Matt.

Way to wrap the bullpen.

The bullpen is the chat on the YouTube stream,

by the way, if people don't know.

Do we have a bullpen car?

We should get a bullpen car.

What would it do?

I don't know, I don't like Matt around.

I don't know, but I want a bullpen, I love bullpen cars.

Bullpen cars, helmet cars, like any, bring it on.

The lost phenomenon.

The bullpen car.

Love, love, love that, yeah.

Love the bullpen car.

No, the way we started here today,

the way that they're winning is just so funny

that this river hockey quote made the rounds

in the last 24 hours from some anonymous player

through Elliott Friedman, that will this hold up

in the playoffs, there's a point in river hockey,

they're good at it, but we'll see.

And I mean, I don't think it's appropriate.

I don't think it's accurate at all.

It tells me you're not paying attention.

I think it's a Tampa player

because that's the closest game to like a wide open

Donnie Brook type game, as you'll see.

I mean, with the fighting and everything,

it was like a game from 1978.

I think it's Hagel.

Okay, let's just say it is.

Let's make that so.

And then we can hate him even more.

Put your name on it, right?

Hagel, you punk, you two-bit punk.

You X-Saber's epic.

Goon, you just tell us.

Yeah, let's do it all.

We're gonna just jealous of the same thing.

Full Paul Newman on the radio and slap shot.

I don't know the bit well enough to quote it entirely.

Anyway, I can't help you.

They, I just, they're not a river hockey team.

They're not an offensive juggernaut.

They are, I think to my eyes, a complete team.

They've got, the gold tending has done more than held up.

The gold tending is as chiefly responsible.

It's been great, but their defending overall is very good.

These one, nothing, two, nothing, two, one, three, one games

that they buckled down in the third period.

There have been numerous games this year

where you can't, you don't even need fingers

to count the scoring chances.

The other team gets in a third period

where they're not all the time.

They've given up some late goals and whatnot,

but like mostly they are buttoned up.

When they need to be buttoned up,

I'm thinking of the quote from Kekalainen very early on

in his tenure as GM, saying something along the lines of,

when you're up four to one,

you don't necessarily have to be trying to score your fifth goal.

Just, you know, you've got, you've got the game,

you're in control, you know,

it sounds a little too close to, you know,

going into a shell for some people maybe,

but it's right, like you don't have to take chances

to try to score another goal.

You've got the game.

Just be responsible, cover, cover your stuff up

in the defensive zone, and you're going to win the game.

And they've done that.

So any idea that there's some sort of fluky one hit wonder

because they beat Tampa eight to seven is silliness.

Like to me, the more you see that,

if that takes hold, it makes the rounds,

don't get mad at it, just laugh at it,

because it's wrong.

What the person saying that is telling you

is that they don't watch the Buffalo Sabers play hockey.

I guess, I mean, I understand why it's an insult

or meant as one, but I don't have to take it as one.

I mean, I could do what you say, which is just like dismiss it.

Or I could, you know, kind of love it.

River hockey, that sounds cool.

Well, I'm not going to entirely dismiss it.

I want to lean in, I want to, I want to have my share of fun

with the, with the whole thing.

Yes.

But I'm not, I'm, none of it is because I'm mad about it.

So I think thank you for, for throwing us another thing

that we can hang our hats on in this unprecedented hockey

season we're having.

Niagara River hockey, even better.

NRH River songs.

You're working on your favorite river song ideas.

You know, it isn't the best choice.

The song River by, I think, Joni Mitchell.

It's a Christmas song.

No, okay. Yeah.

Know it?

No.

I might know it if you want to sing it for me.

No.

But I'm listening to it in my head right now.

Yeah, I don't know.

It might be one of these songs I know without, you know,

I don't know it by name, but I might know it if I hear it.

You know, like, oh, of course, that's long.

You know what I mean?

That kind of thing.

But I don't know it by song by a woman.

It's really kind of sad and self-defeating.

Yeah, that doesn't really fit.

No, I don't think you want that.

No.

You don't want a sad Christmas song as your river song.

No, you want, yeah, you want, you want, yeah, proud Mary.

Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river is perfect.

Take me to the river.

A friend of mine texted me earlier today, that, that works.

It's, you know, whether it's the talking heads or whatever.

It's totally, Al Green, I'll say his name.

Sorry, I need to roll by that.

Roll by that.

Like, people are not going to know what I meant.

Let's stay together.

You're right.

Al Green.

So, yeah, I'm trying to decide if I want to,

I love the Tina Turner CCR thing with, with proud Mary.

But there's lots of, you can get pretty deep into river songs.

Francine's got a, like, probably a box that of river songs.

Make that the goal song.

Right.

That's what I think.

How great would that vibe be?

Get, get, get, get, get, get, start my heart out of here.

All of them.

And just get, and get team now.

Give me, I can Tina Turner.

That would be so hot.

I know.

I agree.

God.

Are we too old?

Incredible.

I would love that.

Yeah.

I mean, if you want to make it CCR fine, I don't care, but just,

to me goal, that song belongs to the Tina Turner.

Forging, rid it.

Dada, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da,

the place would go, oh, my God!

You can't hear that.

See, that's why, I think it's, it's,

I can Tina Turner not CCR.

Definitely, I see her dancing and the, and the I got,

standing and like the, the whole thing like, that's it.

idea that's that that is there's they own that song sorry John Fogarty and big

CCR fans and he sue you like you soon expand oh no but it is they at Wednesday

when they host the Bruins they should have that locked and loaded if they know

what the hell they're doing over there oh let's go I'm weak you over here you

got me so excited when you just hum that that one the the bars of the intro

that's on I mean I'm so good all the brass yeah oh well we got to make this

happen river hockey soak it in I love it I was saying dismiss it or whatever do

what you want I yeah fun is good usually in sports fun is seen as bad we want

to not make mistakes hockey maybe most of all goals are bad plays by the other

team you know like just yep hockey has that sort of ethos that mentality that

goals are mistakes and how you win is to limit those mistakes but goals are fun

goals are important and valuable and mean the sabers are kind of good at both I

guess goal song how about how about they come out to that anything like the

start of the game the arena that like you give me Tina Turner dancing on the

jumbo tron I don't need to see her I just want to hear it all right I'm not

somebody who looks at the scoreboard anyway you could enhance it if you want to

but like that it's better without goal for it sabers work I can Tina Turner or

Tina Turner solo whatever it proud me work it in there's a place for that

somewhere I can't be the only geaser who when he read the comment about river

hockey that he immediately went to like rolling rolling I said that's what my

brain did as soon as it happened like perfect we've got a theme song Tina Turner

by the way was used in our song draft I drafted a Tina Turner song did you

draft what's love got to do it no it was also I can Tina and it had the same

all mountain river deep bound high river deep river river deep bound high again

just the options are pletiful keep it going I don't think that's as good of a

choice but no me either but it's so much fun to listen to all right Brian
