Duke Can and maybe you've seen Duke Cannon

2:01

products and Target, Walmart, your local

2:03

2:05

introduce you. Duke Cannon makes a

2:07

variety of men's grooming goods, the

2:09

big ass brick of soap, thick

2:11

body wash, beard care stuff, clones,

2:13

and hair wash. They also donate

2:15

money to veterans causes each year

2:18

through the Duke Cannon Veterans Fund.

2:20

Simply put, they give a damn.

2:22

They do. And their products work hard

2:25

and smell terrific. Most of the year,

2:27

I'm a saw-to-thick body wash guy murals,

2:29

you know, got to scrub it down,

2:31

unless I'm at the Ritz Carlton and

2:34

Montreal, then I get on the bidet,

2:36

and I mean, that's lights out. But

2:38

usually the thick body wash. Then in

2:40

the fall, I like the buffalo trace

2:43

soaps. But during the holiday season, which

2:45

is pretty much here, I put their

2:47

big ass lump of coal soap on

2:49

my wish soap on my wish list.

2:52

It's. Shop now at Duke Cannon.com. Amazon

2:54

in Target or at Walmart. They are

2:56

everywhere. Go forth and save up to

2:59

20% on Yule Tide, soap bundles and

3:01

gift sets, the products, the packaging. You

3:03

won't find better gifts for the men

3:05

on your list this year, Merle's. Beautifully

3:08

done. Thank you, Duke Cannon. But yeah,

3:10

I'm in Montreal, big boy. I like

3:12

it. Shit kicking last night. What a

3:14

game. I was all over that one.

3:17

Five and a row now. Yeah, I

3:19

saw you listed that out there. The

3:21

big green checkmark came out on socials.

3:23

You were just buzzing them off last

3:26

night. You're all over it. And that

3:28

game was three two going into the

3:30

third period. You know what changed it?

3:34

No, I didn't see it. Me. I ate

3:36

two, I ate two Sheehan shows at the

3:38

second period in her mission. The Sheehan shows,

3:40

the hot dogs at the Bell Center. All

3:42

the dogs, legendary dogs. Buddy, I got after

3:44

it. I even ate one on, I even

3:47

ate one on TV. We did a little

3:49

segment on it. I just pounded a Sheehan

3:51

show on TV. But just an absolute dog

3:53

to the people, the people I didn't play

3:55

in the NHL or haven't been to a

3:57

Montreal Canadian. It's what the pressed bond and

3:59

everything? The pressed bond and it's toasted too.

4:01

It's the weirdest bond because it looks like

4:04

a regular piece of bread murals but it's

4:06

folded over these little hot dogs and it's

4:08

that's the secret is the bond. The pressed

4:10

bond is the secret. Yeah they put it

4:12

in like what is it what are those

4:14

things called? What's it called? What do they

4:16

make on there? What kind of sound like

4:18

those Cuban sandwiches? You know how they press

4:21

it on those things? Yeah, that's kind of,

4:23

yeah, Panini. It's like a Panini thing, they,

4:25

I think, that they, that they toast them

4:27

up with. And it gives like a little

4:29

crunchy outside, little mustard on that unit, away

4:31

you go, just pounding them. They're just so

4:33

easy to eat. Try it at home if

4:35

you can. Toast your bun. That's the bell

4:38

center. Got to toast your bun on any

4:40

hot dog or hamburger, but I mean, I

4:42

was a kid going Montreal for him and

4:44

I knew about the dogs there. And then

4:46

when you get to the NHL, I think

4:48

maybe some places we'd get pizza right away

4:50

in the room, which maybe it was just

4:52

Pittsburgh because we were such a joke, but

4:55

we would have two dozen dogs in the

4:57

room after Montreal games and it was the

4:59

best thing ever. Remember those boxes they'd bring

5:01

in with this? They were stacked up hot

5:03

dogs in these boxes and they'd lay them

5:05

on that table thing in the middle of

5:07

the room where all the tape is and

5:09

they just put them there and like guys

5:12

aren't even out of their gear yet and

5:14

they're just hammering housing housing hot dogs. Like

5:16

is that just auts like the tanking team

5:18

or is that all the teams in the

5:20

league? Yeah I think that's I think that's

5:22

everyone because like when you go to Buffalo

5:24

did you get chicken wings? I

5:27

can't remember, I only played in Buffalo once,

5:29

I don't think so. Buddy, when I used

5:31

to come off the ice, like when you're

5:34

coming down the hallway to go to the

5:36

dressing room in Buffalo, my eyes would start

5:38

watering from like the buffalo sauce, getting into

5:40

the dressing room, like the dressing room, like

5:43

the buffalo sauce, getting into the dressing room,

5:45

like the meaty would be in there, there'd

5:47

be like five trays of wings, but Montreal

5:50

with the hot dogs, but that was a

5:52

beat down. three two going into the third

5:54

and they just open up the floodgates. The

5:56

Sids line just went crazy. Brian Russ with

5:59

a hatcher. Hudson, who I love watching by

6:01

the way, I want to get him on

6:03

our show, I hope we can get him

6:06

on the show, it's so fun to

6:08

watch though, he's so fun to watch his

6:10

point streak ended, he broke Chris Cheleos's rookie

6:12

defenseman point streak, so that ended last game,

6:15

just not a good game for Montreal Merlemerls,

6:17

just battle, badder. They like they shouldn't be

6:19

that bad, but they're that bad. It's it

6:21

was created. It was bad last night, but

6:24

I'm in Montreal, Merles. Have you ever I

6:26

guess you're Europe in Sweden, you ride the

6:28

train a lot? Like that's very common life.

6:31

a cool thing that teams have started doing

6:33

and I think the penguins kind of copied

6:35

this. I don't know if they've done this

6:37

in the past since I'm new to doing

6:40

color and traveling with the team in the

6:42

last couple years. We're taking a train from

6:44

Montreal to Ottawa. So we're heading there right

6:47

after the show here today. I'm taking a

6:49

train beyond the train. It'll be kind of

6:51

cool experience riding the train like we're like

6:53

European or something. And then we're going to

6:56

get in there and set up and

6:58

get her going. But that's it, buddy. That's

7:00

what I got going on. I'm in Montreal.

7:02

And I'm at a buddy mine. I met

7:05

him. His name's Dan Lavie and Dan Mallers,

7:07

another guy. They took me out for dinner

7:09

tonight before, Satay brothers here in Montreal. Great

7:11

spot. Like, kind of like Asian street food

7:14

7:16

skewers, the meat, the spices, all this crap.

7:18

7:37

office so I'm broadcasting right now today from

7:39

7:41

is in downtown Montreal. It's like such a

7:44

sick setup. Guy, best guys ever. I'm

7:46

gonna have to get to know these guys.

7:48

I got invited to a Men's League tournament

7:50

up there in April in Montreal. So when

7:52

you're coming, I can somehow pull it off.

7:55

I don't know, depending on the schedules and

7:57

8:22

I sent myself to the minzies last week

8:25

The prayers have been answered, Merle's. I

8:27

saw they were answered. Happy for you.

8:29

Can you believe it? I saved Christmas.

8:31

I saved being a dad. I saved

8:33

my family. I'm going to be able

8:35

to create memories. Look at that tree,

8:37

first of all. Yeah, professionally decorated that.

8:40

She's unreal at decorating the tree. Still

8:42

got the ladder set up there. I

8:44

got the netting up. See the lighting

8:46

and the lighting in the trees there.

8:48

Got that baby in serious rank. Now

8:50

I get home I got to lay

8:52

the liner in it's looks like it's

8:54

going to cool off when I get

8:56

home on Sunday lay the liner in

8:58

there and start filling it up and

9:00

get ready to make some memories on

9:02

the ice shout out to nice rinks

9:04

for that nice nice rink and the

9:07

nice memories I'm going to make but

9:09

everybody prayers around thank you in the

9:11

chat thank you for all the prayers

9:13

Love you guys. You went from Mindsies

9:15

to the show just a week there.

9:17

I mean, I couldn't have done it

9:19

without the thoughts and prayers murals. I

9:21

couldn't have done it because I was

9:23

in the I was in the soup.

9:25

I was in the soup. I went

9:27

under the hood on the penguins because

9:29

I knew you were up there and

9:31

I found a great staff from Josh

9:34

Johi. The pens have 36 goals in

9:36

their last eight games. Do you know

9:38

how many Sid and Geno have combined

9:40

of those? eight games, maybe one or

9:42

zero, because I know they're both riding

9:44

really like, like, Sid has like two

9:46

goals in his last, like 15 or

9:48

16 games. Geno, like kind of the

9:50

same deal. So yeah, they're not doing

9:52

majority of the scoring. Great stat. One

9:54

goal, but I mean, obviously Sid's doing

9:56

everything else, but that's an under the

9:58

hood stat. Hopefully we're gonna get a

10:00

segment from Pasha who will get to

10:03

in a second, but first we gotta

10:05

check in with G. Find out what's.

10:07

is going great this this time of

10:09

year we have a lot planned but

10:11

most importantly we had the live show

10:13

so we announced a live show this

10:15

past week oh we announced our first

10:17

guest Tim Stapleton Stakes so we got

10:19

confirmation this morning about a monster monster

10:21

monster guest so that'll be announced next

10:23

pod to we're actually announcing two guest

10:25

next pod so I'm very excited to

10:27

get out to Chicago and guys I

10:30

was gonna save this for my show

10:32

but Chichlet's World, I think this matters.

10:34

One Pasha Eske has a birthday on

10:36

Sunday this week. So happy birthday to

10:38

Pasha Eske. Gotta give him a little

10:40

stick taps from the chat here, but

10:42

yeah, that's what's going on in Chichkelet's

10:44

World right now. What does the, uh,

10:46

a boy in here? Get him in

10:48

here. What does this guy want? What

10:50

does a Grinch want for his birthday?

10:52

I always wonder that. I want the

10:54

Devils to continue winning and the Rangers

10:57

to continue to meltdown. He wants Alex

10:59

Tuck. I think that's what he wants.

11:01

You were talking a week about Alex

11:03

Tuck getting coming to the Devils. I

11:05

think that's a nice birthday. I think

11:07

Tuck would be a really nice piece.

11:09

You know, they need sort of a

11:11

scoring winner that can skate with some

11:13

size. I think he'd be perfect and

11:15

we all know Buffalo ain't doing shit

11:17

this year. So I think Tuck is

11:19

on my Christmas slash birthday gift list.

11:21

for a guy that has his birthday

11:24

so close to christmas and and and

11:26

a guy that hates christmas as much

11:28

as you do no no no i

11:30

don't i don't hate christmas i just

11:32

like it's kind of whatever you hate

11:34

christmas no i don't this is like

11:36

you say i hate the cannot just

11:38

because i don't love something doesn't mean

11:40

i hate it hey pasha while we

11:42

have you on here some big news

11:44

last night Vancouver it looks like you're

11:46

back there now i don't see the

11:48

lady walking in the back like normal

11:50

like normal like normal but uh j

11:53

t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t- I was at the game for

11:55

nothing win. Do you take anything because

11:57

there is rumblings that all of a

11:59

sudden, Elias Peterson dominating, dominating, all of

12:01

a sudden, first game back. Miller, Patterson,

12:03

zero points. Uh, listen, yeah, I don't

12:05

think it's a coincidence. I think everybody

12:07

could see how much lighter PD looked,

12:09

how much more fun he was having

12:11

the game. It's the worst kept secret

12:13

in hockey. Those guys don't get along.

12:15

I'm not blaming one side of the

12:17

other. I think it's just opposite. In

12:20

hockey, those guys don't get along. I'm

12:22

not blaming one side of the other.

12:24

I think it's just opposite. I'm not

12:26

blaming one side of the other. Like

12:28

I'm not blaming blaming it. They should

12:30

let Petey dress in another dressing room,

12:32

like give him a safe space. Give

12:34

him a safe space to get dressed

12:36

and get ready for the game and

12:38

then he can come out. It's like

12:40

the Eagles when they got back together.

12:42

They all had to walk out to

12:44

the stage, that band. They'll walk out

12:47

of the stage separately. They got out

12:49

there, they played, then they left. They

12:51

all hated each other kind of so

12:53

just give a safe space. That's

12:56

like those baseball players that get the

12:58

contracts they don't take the team playing

13:00

they don't they stay in a different

13:02

hotel all that kind of nonsense so

13:05

hey and and they and they and

13:07

they I know why you were at

13:09

the game last night you were sniffing

13:11

Sammy Reinhart's jock strap that's why as

13:13

they got shot out got to go

13:16

support the kid it was it was

13:18

a brutal game all around like just

13:20

low event it was boring even the

13:22

Canucks goals it was just like one

13:24

of the more boring games I've seen

13:27

a long time Well, I watched the

13:29

most boring game and I'm sorry Biz,

13:31

it was the TNT game Wednesday in

13:33

Buffalo, Buffalo Rangers. That was the worst

13:36

hockey. It reminded me of when I

13:38

played in the NHL in 2003, there

13:40

was just like Hawks dumped in the

13:42

whole game, pox along the yellow the

13:44

entire time. Guys couldn't pass, power couldn't

13:47

stick handle, it was embarrassing to watch.

13:49

How about Adams talking about the palm

13:51

trees? That's just a tough, tough response

13:53

there. When taxes. I want to get

13:55

to that in a little bit, but

13:58

let's talk some other stuff on the

14:00

NHL first army. I'm gonna get to

14:02

Buffalo, but first up, Board of Governors

14:04

meeting, looks like they're gonna raise the

14:07

salary cap up. What's your thoughts on

14:09

that? 92.5 million or higher, whichever is

14:11

negotiated in the new collective bargaining agreement.

14:13

Apparently, Gary said, and I read on

14:15

32 thoughts, Elliot Friedman came out with

14:18

a nice little thing yesterday, written 32

14:20

thoughts, but it was updated on the

14:22

Board of Governors with the salary cap

14:24

and he wants to have everything done.

14:26

by I believe like the final to

14:29

have the deal in place and everything

14:31

all kind of sorted out with the

14:33

league and and the players association so

14:35

hopefully that can all kind of come

14:37

easy we don't want to lose hockey

14:40

we don't we don't need anything like

14:42

the money's going up the players are

14:44

are making some more yes it should

14:46

be more money still but with the

14:49

health of the league and everything coming

14:51

like it's on an upward trajectories we

14:53

got we got you know, we got

14:55

teams that are worth two billion dollars

14:57

like most every team is in the

15:00

billion dollars what Pasha came out without

15:02

a Forbes list right. So. I

15:05

think this is something to get done. So

15:07

maybe it's higher than that. Maybe the cap

15:09

goes up higher than that. I think it

15:11

will personally. And so we'll wait and see

15:14

another thing that came out of there, Merles.

15:16

I don't know if you have any thoughts

15:18

on the cap, but outdoor game. Well, first

15:20

of all, the caps going up, but we

15:23

still don't have player, player health insurance for

15:25

all the alumni, the guys that built the

15:27

league, the guys that played for. Guys played

15:29

for 100,000, plays for 70,000 back in the

15:31

70s, 80s, let alone what we played for.

15:34

Get everybody health insurance. How many players can

15:36

there be? Can't be that much. It's just

15:38

insane. But yeah, I want to talk about

15:40

it. Glenn Healy said that at the All-Star

15:43

last year, when we had him on chiklets

15:45

for an interview, it was a great interview,

15:47

and he broke down the numbers. It's not

15:49

that much. It really isn't. So maybe that

15:52

can be pushed in there with with the

15:54

alumni association get that you know they've been

15:56

getting their hands dirty trying to push for

15:58

that. That's a great point murals 100% take

16:00

care. crazy, all this talk of all this

16:03

other stuff, just get the players that. And

16:05

speaking of NHL alumni association, I see you

16:07

got your t-shirt on there, the arm dog.

16:09

I lost it, I got it sent to

16:12

me, I got a few things, I think

16:14

G sent us out some stuff there before

16:16

around Thanksgiving, you got yours, yeah, there it

16:18

is. You see NHL alumni logo, great material,

16:20

I bought one of every size, I gave

16:23

them to my nephews, my brother, bunch of

16:25

my friends, everyone talking about the quality. You

16:27

know, my nephews, my brother's wife, you know,

16:29

I didn't get her one. It's like, it'd

16:32

be kind of weird. You're walking around with

16:34

my face. But she's like, wow, that's really

16:36

good quality. You got the kids. I'm like,

16:38

oh, you're the best here. That's a bit

16:41

in chicklets. Yeah, really good quality. The guy's

16:43

place I'm out here, I showed him out

16:45

here, I showed him out here, I'm out

16:47

here, really good quality. The guy's place I'm

16:49

out here, the guy's place I'm out here,

16:52

the guy's place I'm out here, I'm out

16:54

here, the guy's, the guy's, the guy's, the

16:56

guy's, the guy's, the guy's, the guy's, the

16:58

guy's, the guy's, the guy's, the guy's, the

17:01

guy's, the place, the place, the guy's, the

17:03

place, the place, the, the, the, the, the,

17:05

the, the Yeah, it's all great. There's a

17:07

great. What do you make of an outdoor

17:09

game in Florida though, Merle's? I mean, we

17:12

can't get away from the beach. First, it

17:14

was the all-star game a few years ago,

17:16

we went down there and tore it up.

17:18

Then we end up in the finals there

17:21

the last two years. And now we're gonna

17:23

have another reason to go back to my

17:25

favorite city, maybe on the whole circuit, Fort

17:27

Lickardale, next year. I'm assuming it's not in

17:30

more in March. Yeah. Right. So that's gonna

17:32

be sick. I'm all I'm always up for

17:34

a trip to Lickerdale. You know that. Oh,

17:36

murals. I think it's Miami though. I don't

17:38

think Miami Marlins. It's Miami Marlins big boy.

17:41

Yeah. Like I don't want to be in

17:43

a Miami hotel. Send me back north. 20

17:45

minutes north. Put me in Lauderdale. Put me

17:47

on the strip. Nice cheap hotel for me.

17:50

Get murals in the club in Miami hanging

17:52

from the swing sets up there in the

17:54

roof at these things. Fire coming off the

17:56

bottle service. I think I'm going to do

17:59

my bachelor party in Miami. So maybe we

18:01

just attach it to this and oh gee

18:03

gee gee you do. only drink shots out

18:05

of plastic cups that you can throw on

18:07

the floor after. I've been out with, I

18:10

mean, we did elbow room with you, tequila

18:12

right away out the gates, like just a

18:14

horrible decision. Warm tequila from the elbow room

18:16

in a plastic shooter cup. That's your bachelor

18:19

party. You're gonna be at Lickardale. You're gonna

18:21

be at Lickardale. Morning, morning ocean dips to

18:23

get the body revived right back to elbow

18:25

grease falling up. Bury me

18:27

in the elbow room. That's all I can

18:30

say. Yep. More in H.L. News. Luke Richardson

18:32

let go. You know, it's kind of old

18:34

news now, but I was wondering if you

18:37

had any thoughts. I had somebody tell me

18:39

they think it's partly due to the lack

18:41

of development from Bedard. He's the big rookie.

18:43

He's supposed to be this generational talent. We're

18:46

all starting to talk. Is he that good?

18:48

Is he like these other guys? And then

18:50

the firing comes immediately after he doesn't make

18:53

Team Canada. Yeah. You think this has anything

18:55

to do with him not making team candid?

18:57

Like, what are we doing here? You had

18:59

this guy and you're not getting it done.

19:02

Because it's clearly not because of the wins

19:04

or losses, they know they're going to stink.

19:06

Yeah they just lost to the islanders he

19:08

scored a goal last night on the power

19:11

play big celebration for his six of the

19:13

season but man I did that game like

19:15

a week when was it like a week

19:18

and a half ago now or a week

19:20

ago last week I did that Bruins Blackhawks

19:22

game down between the benches and he was

19:24

playing he's playing online with Bertuzzi and Taylor

19:27

Hall and like they are not on the

19:29

same page those guys they're playing better now

19:31

they're starting to score a little bit Bertuzzy

19:34

and Taylor Hall but they're like When's

19:37

the GM going to take any heat for

19:39

this? I think I seen chief make a

19:41

thing of like he's pissed at Davidson now

19:44

for this is his name, right? What's his

19:46

name? Yeah, I went on I was on

19:48

chief show and that's what we talked about

19:50

and then and then the next day the

19:53

coach got fired because I was saying like

19:55

Davidson hasn't really done anything. He's one

19:57

of these stats nerds and just the players

19:59

he brought in he brought in more. little

20:02

guys and it's just not getting done. It's

20:04

just not good. They're not good complement players

20:06

for a biddard. It's just, it's a

20:08

mess. Yeah, and biddard's like kind of like

20:10

a one dimensional guy a little bit with

20:13

his game, right? Like he's opportunistic, he's good

20:15

when the pucks on his stick, he's not

20:17

a guy that, you know, wants. off the

20:20

rush to get he wants to get the

20:22

inside get a shot but like it's hard

20:24

for him like he doesn't want to get

20:26

hit so he needs to play with

20:28

guys that can that can you know hang

20:31

on the pox and open up these opportunities

20:33

for him but like they're so bad like

20:35

i look at Santa's emeralds on the rebuilding

20:38

situation and what celebrating is and how fucking

20:40

good celebration cellabrine cellabrine is stuck and and

20:42

Smith is there but they have guys around

20:44

them that play a game that can like

20:47

you know pick these guys up but

20:49

celebrating can drive you know he can drive

20:51

too but like there's his situation comparatively which

20:53

is crazy right because looking at San Jose

20:56

from last year and what they were to

20:58

like what they have a little bit

21:00

this year like they're kind of fun to

21:02

watch Chicago not even close Chicago brutal like

21:04

they got they got nothing going on so

21:07

it's way I think a way harder situation

21:09

which brings me to the GM it's like

21:11

you've got to get better guys in here

21:14

you've got to develop and I know they

21:16

have some guys in the minors coming up

21:18

they have that nays are yeah I

21:20

think he got called up today They got

21:22

to bring up some of these guys. They

21:25

just got to start doing it. Who cares?

21:27

You know, if Chicago Blackhawks are developmental team,

21:29

so be it. You can't have it. You

21:32

can't be this bad. You can't just, you

21:34

got to bring guys around them. They're going

21:36

to play and develop together and that's on

21:38

the GM to start making that happen.

21:40

He's got nothing around them. Yeah, you got

21:43

to find somebody he has chemistry with and

21:45

it's not always like the super skilled player.

21:47

We all know about Sid. He played better

21:50

with with different complementary players. You got

21:52

to just keep trying to find guys. Maybe

21:54

this is our kid. He plays the right

21:56

way for Bredard and try him as other

21:58

other ways is not working. Cost of the

22:01

coaches job. I just thought maybe they were

22:03

getting frustrated with the development and and the

22:05

coach took the hit there, but a team

22:08

going in the other direction. I wanted to

22:10

talk about this team, Washington Capitals, 10

22:12

straight road victories, and I got the graphic

22:14

there, and you see there, the record is

22:16

12, and we've got a graphic up there

22:19

that was listening at home, and you see

22:21

a bunch of teams on up there with

22:23

11 or 12 are all recent teams, and

22:26

I was wondering. Is this because, one, the

22:28

guys are not going out boozing on the

22:30

road like we did in the old

22:32

days? Or two, most rinks are basically the

22:35

same now, where you're coming into these beautiful

22:37

locker rooms, beautiful arenas, they're all the same

22:39

size, where back in the old days, I

22:41

mean, you went into the Philly spectrum,

22:43

you weren't coming out of there, no matter

22:46

what, with the old Boston garden, Detroit had

22:48

a different rink, you know, which one do

22:50

you think? attributing more to these records

22:52

coming closer and closer. Like a home winning streak records

22:55

you're talking about? Road winning. It's road winning. It's the

22:57

road. Haps are on a 10 game road win streak.

22:59

Yeah, it's I don't know what it is, but I

23:01

think it's just, I think it's teams, like, look at,

23:04

look at Minnesota too, look at their, look at their

23:06

team, like these guys are, have a GM and Billy

23:08

Garen, I know we give them tons of credit, but

23:10

like, it's the culture thing, like these guys are beauties,

23:12

look at Tom Wilson, these guys, like, you don't think,

23:15

you don't think, I saw that video of like, Hartman

23:17

and Zucarello and Zucarello and these guys going in and

23:19

waking and waking and waking and waking and waking and

23:21

waking, and waking, like, and waking, like, and waking, and

23:24

waking, like, like, like, like, I, like, like, like, like,

23:26

I, like, like, I, like, like, like, like, like, like,

23:28

like, like, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

23:30

like, like, like, like, like, I Like you don't tell

23:32

me this this guy here Tom Wilson gets hit in

23:35

the face with a puck his head almost is exploding.

23:37

Look at that thing. Look at that thing. Thank you

23:39

sports net for that picture and that interview. He didn't

23:41

interview after with this built different guys that are built

23:43

different off the ice. Their dresser rooms are alive. We

23:46

see these great videos coming out like from. from Minnesota

23:48

and from Washington and Carberry and these guys in the

23:50

room and just how close and if they are and

23:52

like doing extra shit like this like taking pox to

23:55

the face and just coming back. being two goals

23:57

in that game to it

23:59

it guys are guys are just

24:01

finding ways down a goal

24:03

going into the come back and

24:06

win like Washington is just just a

24:08

team that is dug they've dug

24:10

dug in just a just a different vibe and that just

24:12

goes to show you show you can have all these

24:14

great players and stuff. But if you don't play hard

24:16

for each other, you don't play the right way. other

24:18

you don't play don't have don't have

24:20

the and mentality around your group in

24:22

your room your room of a brotherhood and family and

24:25

like, you know, you're not all in like

24:27

that, like it's amazing what you can do

24:29

when you have those things. But if you

24:31

don't, it's amazing how much inconsistency and shit

24:33

you can have. can have. Yeah,

24:35

I I great a great quote. was

24:37

more about the NFL where the team takes

24:39

takes on the character of their

24:41

head coach they were they were talking

24:43

about the Lions, how their coach is. I love him.

24:45

He's nuts. And now the team is nuts. And then they now

24:48

the team is nuts. And then they

24:50

were talking about some other team, like Miami

24:52

coach. He's like coach, he's like a little soft,

24:54

wants to be guy. cool guy. And that's

24:56

how the way way the Dolphins play. It

24:58

doesn't get it done. My it done. My best

25:00

team in the league, best player in the

25:03

league, same thing. coach, in mean, he makes

25:05

some horrible decisions, but he's hard he he's

25:07

tough. And that's how the team's playing. but

25:09

And seeing it in the NHL. This

25:11

Carberry is doing a phenomenal job there. I

25:13

remember my friend, NHL. This I was in

25:15

Toronto at the All -Stars. job went

25:18

for lunch with him my he played with

25:20

him, I think in Carolina or at the All-Star

25:22

I remember. He's like, I went

25:24

to lunch Trust me. I didn't

25:26

believe with him. I thought Washington was

25:28

washed. They are not. They are

25:30

awesome. them to them. streak. Next

25:32

streak. whenever it game, it is, I'm on gonna try

25:34

I'm going to try to get them,

25:36

ride them to the you have, you have, anyone,

25:38

I know and I know it's probably hard

25:40

to pull up and put you on the

25:42

spot, but put you our, our picks for our

25:44

picks for playoffs, no way we had,

25:46

anyone had the caps in there. caps

25:48

after the push they had the push one

25:51

guy year. One had it? Who had here we

25:53

go. we go. Where's

25:55

the under the hood? Where's the

25:57

under the hood? the hood? The under the

25:59

is. is. being made. It's a work

26:01

in progress. Yeah, that's where you need to

26:03

pop that on. The hood comes up and

26:06

all these numbers and equations start popping up

26:08

and then your face pops on there. Yeah,

26:10

oh yeah, that's a good idea for the

26:12

graphic. Yeah, the hood pops up, numbers and

26:14

equations pop up and Pasha's head just slowly

26:17

rises out of like a cartoon Pasha head.

26:19

Pasha, I've got to ask you though about

26:21

even about your devil's in referring to this

26:23

in referring to this. Yeah. The following statements

26:25

are about to be made by a deranged

26:28

devil's fan. The views expressed are his and

26:30

his only. Take everything you hear with a

26:32

grain of salt because, remember, he is a

26:34

deranged devil's fan. Thank you for that shit.

26:37

Never gets old. The way to go, yeah,

26:39

thank God G, you got that on there.

26:41

Yeah, they've been not so good at home.

26:43

Although I will say a couple of the

26:45

last home losses, they dominated like the Toronto

26:48

game. They were completely dominating and they, you

26:50

know, they should have won that game. But

26:52

yeah, kind of a concerning trend the last

26:54

couple years at home. I don't know if

26:56

it's just the atmosphere is not the best

26:59

in there. You were saying you think the

27:01

barn is just too big. So like, it's

27:03

not that loud. Yeah, definitely would like to

27:05

see them be better at home. Yeah. Pasha,

27:07

tell us more about that game you went

27:10

to, Biz and Frank the Tank, behind the

27:12

scenes stories from that. Yeah, that was awesome.

27:14

Last Friday we went with G and Frank

27:16

the Tank and Biz and Janks, who's Frank's

27:18

guy to the Devils game. And it was

27:21

awesome. We just kind of sat up there

27:23

and Frank and I were kind of just...

27:25

doing our deranged devil's talk and business sitting

27:27

there rolling his eyes, but we had a

27:30

great time. Devils rattle off a win, obviously,

27:32

they're a wagon, and it was great. I

27:34

love Frank, that was by far the most

27:36

time I'd spent with him. And you know,

27:38

there'd be a few times where Janks would

27:41

lean over and be like, you guys are

27:43

the same person, like we're both just like

27:45

screaming about the same player, like, you know,

27:47

doing certain things, but yeah, we had a

27:49

great time. All right, so I just see

27:52

in the chats, bit and check, let's TV

27:54

is coming with the whole thing. So don't

27:56

want to give any spoilers away there. I

27:58

do got to say posh. we

28:01

were sitting there with Frank during the,

28:03

right when the, you know when the

28:05

thing pops on the jumbotron where they

28:07

put like a, hide something under, like

28:09

a ball under the cup move? Frank

28:11

knows the algorithm. Frank has the, before

28:13

it even started, he goes, oh, this

28:15

will be one. And we're like, what?

28:17

And he's like, oh, when they, when

28:20

they have like this letter up on

28:22

screen, like it's always one when they

28:24

have, it's always three when they have

28:26

like this letter up on screen. And

28:28

we're like, what the fuck? How'd you

28:30

know this? Lo and behold, he was

28:32

right. Then me and Pasha went to

28:34

the game two nights later, two nights

28:36

later, same thing hits. It's, it's crazy.

28:39

Frank could make some money on that.

28:41

You should make some money. Hey Frank's

28:43

a carnie hey if you know those

28:45

things like those are like things you

28:47

gotta know he's a vet. He's a

28:49

vet. His trivia he knows everything I

28:51

remember the first time I met him

28:53

he was in there I think he

28:55

knew my NHL stats somehow like buddy

28:58

nobody knows those and he knows everything

29:00

every stat who would they play the

29:02

Leafs that night? They played the oh

29:04

no Seattle the game we all went

29:06

together they played Seattle yeah. Yeah we

29:08

want to talk some leaves. Yeah, the

29:10

Leafs stole that game, but now they

29:12

got some bad news and their goalie

29:14

was hurt, stole ours last game possibly.

29:17

What you're like the best school tending

29:19

in the league, right? Like that's been

29:21

like one of the things that they've

29:23

got. I mean, I think they're D

29:25

or playing a lot better. Like I

29:27

hate to say it, but like the

29:29

Leafs are pretty legit. And like, even

29:31

in games they lose, like the Penguins

29:33

beat them, the Penguins played the best

29:36

game of the year a few nights

29:38

ago. the execution playmaking and speed and

29:40

skill of this team plus the physicality

29:42

like they're a way more physical team

29:44

there's no question this thing the identity

29:46

of their coach yes and and I

29:48

think this stings was stole ours been

29:50

a great story career kind of backup

29:52

guy journeymen bounced around but he's been

29:55

unbelievable in Toronto so this is gonna

29:57

be something that's tough for them you

29:59

know to I mean they got guys

30:01

and then like their team they have

30:03

to depend on their team play a

30:05

little bit more, but the Leafs this

30:07

year like I think they're trending towards

30:09

a style of hockey that is. able

30:12

to win in the playoffs and that's

30:14

I think the ultimate goal and that's

30:16

what I see when I watch them.

30:18

So wins are great obviously for them

30:20

and like having a healthy team you

30:22

got to have that and the goal

30:24

tending story has been really good but

30:26

the style of play wins and losses

30:28

aside is like for me if you

30:31

if you hate the Leafs you better

30:33

go oh no they're going to be

30:35

here in a lot of biz if

30:37

this looking at the standings like There's

30:39

some good teams and then there's a

30:41

lot of teams that aren't good. And

30:43

so when I look at the standings

30:45

like the Leafs are in the teams

30:47

that are good and they're up there

30:50

and I look at the teams that

30:52

are not good it's going to be

30:54

a cage match for those wild card

30:56

spots. Yeah, but it's not going to

30:58

want to hear that, but I am

31:00

going to give with these stats he's

31:02

going to like to hear. The other

31:04

Canadian goalie, Stuart Skinner, four and one,

31:06

one, one, four, one goals against his

31:09

last few games. The Oilers are back.

31:11

They are firing on all cylinders. Was

31:13

it eight and two in their last

31:15

10 games? Four wins in a row

31:17

for the oil right now. Yeah, they're

31:19

on fire. I saw an amazing tweet

31:21

and I'm always I was the one

31:23

that said put darnell nurse on forward

31:25

and then he did score that oat

31:28

winner the tweet I saw he's been

31:30

awesome he has been awesome and somebody

31:32

tweeted since that injury is stats or

31:34

since that hit on Reeves it said

31:36

Reeves knocked hockey sense in the world

31:38

hockey I know it's funny as you

31:40

know what I think of comes right

31:42

to my head right away is Fred

31:44

Flynnstone. I remember like being a kid

31:47

watching that at lunch time Go home,

31:49

turn it on, eat my lunch in

31:51

school. And he get hit in the

31:53

head and he get that big egg,

31:55

goose egg, come up and he's like

31:57

speaking Spanish. And then he get hit

31:59

in the head again later in the

32:01

show and he can speak English again.

32:03

It's like one of those things, hey?

32:06

Reeds like knock the player right into

32:08

him. He's been awesome. So I got

32:10

to get. him some some props since

32:12

I'm always working working hard against him.

32:14

You're grinding him. You're grinding him. Great.

32:16

He's awesome. That team is awesome. They're

32:18

gonna be, it pains me to say

32:20

because I got my Vegas future, but

32:22

Edmonton is looking like they got it

32:25

figured out. Also out Western Canada, great

32:27

story. This guy's former penguin, Teddy Bluger.

32:29

You want to get into that story?

32:31

Former penguin, former Golden Night. Now Vancouver

32:33

Canucks, his mom came on a little

32:35

trip and came to visit, played the

32:37

50-50 at the game the other day.

32:39

Amazing story. She wins $105,000 50-50 winner

32:41

at the game. Like she won the

32:44

lottery going to the game. I saw

32:46

a list come out of like credit

32:48

of like the amounts that they've won.

32:50

I don't think that's close to like

32:52

what Edmonton does like Edmonton you walk

32:54

away or a millionaire. It's crazy what

32:56

Edmonton does, but 105 grand is still

32:58

unbelievable for his mom watching his her

33:01

son play in the NHL who's a

33:03

millionaire and she wins a hundred and

33:05

five thousand dollars of playing the 50-50.

33:07

I saw the list though from Vancouver

33:09

was like like one of the highest

33:11

ones. on this little string I saw

33:13

some of them were like for 50

33:15

grand some of them were for like

33:17

60 grand some of them for 30

33:20

grand and then there was a few

33:22

for a hundred grand one was like

33:24

for 125 but she got one of

33:26

the bigger ones at a hundred and

33:28

five thousand dollars that's a massive win

33:30

unbelievable story and like that's a big

33:32

cat move like I was with big

33:34

cat was rattled he I saw his

33:36

tweet he's like not fair her first

33:39

time her first say I can you

33:41

imagine he's probably lost a hundred grand

33:43

well he buys like I've been with

33:45

him at the NYPD FNY game I

33:47

bought 50-50 tickets with him at that

33:49

game he bought like $300 worth of

33:51

50-50 tickets it was insane the amount

33:53

of receipt like the length of the

33:55

receipt like the length of the an

33:58

avid 50-50 guy and she walks in

34:00

dances in watching her boy play and

34:02

she wins a 50. cherry on top.

34:04

So congratulations, Mrs. Bluger. I got a

34:06

good question. What's the, what's the level

34:08

of money you have to win where

34:10

you don't have to donate it back?

34:12

So I was out of benefit when

34:14

I was home for our buddy Bill

34:17

Anselah that passed away. So there's a

34:19

big benefit 50-50. And I just, I

34:21

had a lease, I just gave my

34:23

tickets and just donate it back. You

34:25

have to donate it back almost every

34:27

scenario. What point do you have to

34:29

not donate it back you think? Oh,

34:31

that's 100 grand you don't have to

34:33

donate back, correct? No, no, no, no,

34:36

no. For her, you're 100% you keep

34:38

that guy like wet. Yeah, he probably

34:40

got to donate that back, you know,

34:42

money guy 100 grand? I

34:44

don't know what you can give like 10

34:47

grand back maybe off of that right be

34:49

a good guy. What's the chat? Let's get

34:51

this a good chat question. It's a great

34:53

track coach because I think if you're a

34:56

nine to five or you're grinding your balls

34:58

off and you win like 10 grand you're

35:00

not giving that back you're not giving five

35:02

grand back. You know what I mean at

35:05

these charity things are you? I'm keeping it.

35:09

Yeah, I think you I think you

35:11

keep it like if you're if you're

35:13

already kind of wealthy you might donate

35:15

some back. Yeah, 5k. Let's make sure

35:18

she pays the Canadian taxes on that,

35:20

doesn't get out of the country with

35:22

all that money like Juan Soto is

35:24

doing in New York. Juan Soto should

35:27

be able to, you're talking about trains

35:29

earlier? The taxes we should get from

35:31

that in the state of New York

35:34

should pay for the new train system.

35:36

Can we get some upgrades to Amtrak

35:38

please? In New York though if you're

35:40

going to ride the train you also

35:43

he should donate his money and upgrade

35:45

and everyone gets like a metal neck

35:47

device so you don't get your neck

35:49

stabbed on this on the train body

35:52

armor you get full body armor when

35:54

you go on there. get a body

35:56

armor, a great sponsor. Not that body

35:58

armor, real, full-approved vest. All right, that's

36:01

enough that. We're going on to the

36:03

next segment, new segment. I've used it

36:05

once before. It's Ask Army, our hockey.

36:08

hockey expert because he's at every NHL

36:10

game, he sees these teams live more

36:12

than I get a chance to do.

36:14

There's three teams, we've all been waiting

36:17

to turn the corner, sabers, red wing

36:19

senators, quick little, one thing you would

36:21

do for each team. We'll start with

36:23

the sabers. If you're the GM there,

36:26

what's one thing you would think about

36:28

doing? If I'm the GM, what I

36:30

do is, is I get my player

36:33

development guys. and I get my coach

36:35

and I say hey we're are clamping

36:37

it down no country club no actually

36:39

this goes for all the teams murals

36:42

I'm gonna group it all in here

36:44

all these teams that you've listed that

36:46

you think we should get to what

36:48

are they sabers red wing senators yep

36:51

Get them all, clamp it down, tighten

36:53

the ship up. This is what's expected.

36:55

I don't give a fuck if we

36:58

score a goal. Nothing. We're tightening it

37:00

up. We're playing this style of hockey.

37:02

And if you don't want to hit,

37:04

play physical, dig in, and you don't

37:07

want to play this way, you're gone.

37:09

You're gone. I let the league know,

37:11

everyone's available. Up to you, dig in.

37:13

Then I go down the American League.

37:16

I catch the first train in New

37:18

York to the down a roach wherever

37:20

the hell every American League. I'll take

37:22

the train in New York. I'll take

37:25

you too long. Put on my body

37:27

armor and get down there and I

37:29

walk into that room and I say

37:32

listen you little shits. You guys want

37:34

to be pros. You guys want to

37:36

play in the NHL. You can have

37:38

it. You can play. The doors wide

37:41

open, no jobs are safe, but you

37:43

have to play like a piece of

37:45

shit. We gotta start playing better, harder,

37:47

more ingrained into our bones and our

37:50

fibers of a fucking hockey player than

37:52

fucking float dog around being fake skilled.

37:54

not getting anything done. And I would

37:57

say the doors open, it's up to

37:59

you. Do you want to play in

38:01

the NHL or not? This is a

38:03

line drawn in the sand. All of

38:06

our prospects, I start flying to wherever

38:08

the hell our prospects are. I go,

38:10

hey, you want to play here? Same

38:12

thing. Deliver the message. It's up to

38:15

you. This is across the board, all

38:17

these teams. And then I fucking kick

38:19

him in the ass, I send the

38:22

message and I leave and I let

38:24

them figure it out. And if they

38:26

don't, adios amigos, we made a mistake,

38:28

you're gone, get something, you're gone, get

38:31

something, I'm not sitting around waiting. Because

38:33

I think doing a rebuild and everything,

38:35

I think what we've come to see

38:37

is sometimes it's harder than you think.

38:40

It takes maybe some cases you have

38:42

to get lucky, it's longer than you

38:44

think. On the flip side. You

38:47

have to draft really well, you have to

38:49

develop really well, and you have to have

38:52

the culture that is dialed in. I think

38:54

no question in some of these places, the

38:56

culture is just like, this is the way

38:58

it is, it's junk, we're gonna lose. I

39:01

was in Atlanta, there was no expectations, we're

39:03

just junk. That's how it was, it was

39:05

like drove him nuts. Yeah, it used to

39:07

be like that. Yep. And then changed. We

39:10

got to find a way to change it.

39:12

That'd be my message if I'm a GM.

39:14

And I know one's safe. I would just

39:16

start fucking laying the hammer down on all

39:19

my guys. You play this way with what

39:21

you already have. You don't change and you

39:23

don't give me more of what I want.

39:25

You're out of here. I'm not accepting it.

39:28

You'll never put on that Jersey. You, your

39:30

decision. Come ready to come ready to ready

39:32

to go, boys. Army you say you'd ship

39:34

people out that's interesting because Merle started this

39:37

this this topic off with Buffalo and Elliot

39:39

Friedman had an interesting piece in 32 thoughts

39:41

this morning which is teams are circling like

39:43

vultures on Dylan Cousins and a lot of

39:46

teams are calling and ask about him five

39:48

more seasons at 7.1 mil a the very

39:50

you know two years removed from a 30

39:52

goal season. A lot of teams probably want

39:55

that guy and the way things are going

39:57

in Buffalo, I don't know, would you guys

39:59

deal him? Is he depleted, Merle's? Is he

40:01

just like, oh, this sucks? It's a culture

40:04

thing. Like, he's the workhorse from. great bringing

40:06

that up gee unbelievable like this guy is

40:08

a commodity because I think he's versatile you

40:10

can play him anywhere you can put him

40:13

on PK he can go to the net

40:15

he's like Tom Wilsony kind of style compliments

40:17

guys he can make good plays he can

40:19

be a stud for you if you get

40:22

him in the right environment and you get

40:24

him around the right people and you give

40:26

him the right expectations and. Who would want

40:28

a guy like that? Everybody would want him.

40:31

Everybody would want him. Everybody would want, like

40:33

Pasha said, talk in Thompson. Everybody wants these

40:35

guys, but some reason they can't do it

40:37

together there. They cannot get through it. I

40:40

don't know what it is. I remember in

40:42

Pittsburgh, the culture was so bad and part

40:44

of it was because of the equipment managers

40:46

and the trainers. They had to just like

40:49

the negative attitude. I remember I couldn't even

40:51

get my skate sharpened. It was like, oh,

40:53

can you sharp my skates? It was just

40:55

a losing mentality. It was nothing was done.

40:58

The workouts we talked about. So Pittsburgh came

41:00

in and cleared everything out and changed everything

41:02

and that was a new culture. You need

41:04

a captain or something to take over like

41:07

Bergeron was in Boston and Chara. They talked

41:09

about that. They need some, yeah, and if

41:11

you got to trade somebody big like that,

41:13

then like you said, you got to do

41:16

it and yeah, we took a loss on

41:18

that one, but something need to change. Minnesota

41:20

did, we talked to Billy Garin, he's like,

41:22

I had to do it, I didn't care

41:25

about that, I needed to do it, I

41:27

didn't care about that, I needed to do

41:29

it, I didn't care about that, I needed,

41:31

I didn't matter how foolish they looked by

41:34

doing it, he did, he did it, and

41:36

you got to dig in on it and

41:38

you know it yes it starts also with

41:40

your leadership like we had Crosby right like

41:43

he's drove the ship he came in practice

41:45

he didn't care if he stepped on the

41:47

older guy's toes he came in he was

41:49

ready to work and he did he did

41:52

shit that like you have to do like

41:54

he was on pux he won battles he

41:56

got to the net he chipped his teeth

41:58

he was bleeding compete level was off the

42:01

charts, whether we were losing or not. Like

42:03

he just changed it just because of his

42:05

will. They need more guys with a bigger

42:07

will and a drive, and it's up to

42:10

them. And I would send that message, and

42:12

obviously they know that, but I'd be harder.

42:14

I think it's handled with kids gloves a

42:16

little bit now with these guys and these

42:19

players, and you can't do that anymore. You

42:21

know why you can't do it? because you

42:23

say so, no, you can still do it.

42:25

You can still do it. And some of

42:28

these places they have to with some of

42:30

these teams and some of these players and

42:32

some of the mentality I think too. So

42:34

that's something that needs to change in some

42:37

of these places probably is just harder messaging

42:39

and laying the clamps down on it and.

42:41

The expectation is a hard line. It's a

42:43

hard line. You're in this organization. This is

42:46

what we, I don't care how good you

42:48

think you fucking are. I don't care if

42:50

your dad calls you after the game and

42:52

says great fucking game. I'll decide and you

42:55

have to fucking play this way or you're

42:57

gone. We're not doing it anymore. And yeah,

42:59

good decision by Billy G. Hard decision, but

43:01

great decision. Look where they are now. Yep.

43:04

They need to hire Terry and or one

43:06

of the Sutter brothers as an advisor to

43:08

these teams and just just have send them

43:10

around to their prospects and to the minors

43:13

just hold meetings with them. They need Terry

43:15

and come in there. Yeah, Terry and so

43:17

I love this ask army segment. You got

43:19

might have a GM in your future, but

43:22

quickly. Yes, no answer. Bruins make the playoffs.

43:24

Make the playoffs. No. Wow, right? Did I

43:26

have them in the playoffs? I might have

43:28

had them in. I had them out last

43:31

year. I might have got mine fucked in

43:33

letting them back in the door. And these

43:35

are, this is the situation of these teams,

43:37

Merle's, this is the machine of these teams,

43:40

Merle, but who's gonna be the best in

43:42

the mushy middle? Who's gonna be the best

43:44

in the mushy middle? Who's gonna be the

43:46

best in the mushy middle? Who's going to

43:49

be? I just don't know. I don't think

43:51

they do. I've been all over them. They

43:53

haven't. a good team since

43:55

SACO took over. They're

43:58

beating up on all

44:00

these other bad teams, Montreal

44:02

Buffalo, Pittsburgh that we've

44:04

talked about. And let's

44:07

see if you you had

44:09

in everybody has Boston in yeah

44:11

next team team obviously everybody had

44:14

the Rangers in the the going to get in are

44:16

they going to keep going gonna keep going might

44:18

keep going down. going The only thing that

44:20

might save him, I think, I is is He's

44:22

he's like chance. only chance with

44:24

the way they are, they're right there

44:27

like Boston, they look like. when you watch

44:29

you watch them play, it's just it's crazy. and

44:31

I and I don't know, like move like

44:33

like they already got traded. got traded their to

44:35

shake it shake it up. also just announced

44:37

announced Kiandre on the IR the IR

44:39

an upper an injury. injury so. So

44:42

maybe he's been he's been so bad a might

44:44

be a blessing in he was playing hurt

44:46

though. Maybe he had something. Maybe that's

44:48

why he's been bad. So So I don't

44:50

know. Yeah, what's tough about this job. When

44:52

we job when we or something, or or playing

44:54

or we don't playing going. They could be

44:56

in that they're going. They is it? That what

44:59

is it? That sling? Yeah. They could be playing in that like we used

45:01

be playing in that why we used

45:03

to and that's why we stink. why

45:05

we stink. Last one, one you're the expert

45:07

have been, would have been all been

45:09

know all year on this But

45:12

there's something happening in Pittsburgh Pittsburgh plus

45:14

to make the playoffs on draft kings. Is it

45:16

Is that worth sprinkling something on

45:18

that? that? I I think they'll

45:20

make it. I think they will. I think in the

45:22

last in the last so, they've games

45:24

or so they've been so much

45:26

better. Buntings I think on. They've come on.

45:29

They've got this Lazad in there.

45:31

They're little guys, but they Thomasino, it's almost

45:33

everything. Fire and and energy and got got

45:35

it going right now. is seemingly battled

45:37

out of seemingly battled out of like

45:39

the great game not a great game against

45:41

Colorado the other day, know, but know,

45:43

had to stop breakaways night against against. Yeah,

45:45

it's it's Five points, I five points, I think

45:47

for in and by the in that game, a by

45:49

the way, and a for for in his 600th game

45:52

is just just like They're aliens. And And then McCarr

45:54

was dancing around only had one had one

45:56

but I'm like, I'm like, oh he was all

45:58

over the ice, over the ice. but he bounced back. I

46:00

think the process of him finding himself,

46:02

he's getting back there. Their power play

46:04

has been sneaky, pretty good, comparatively, obviously

46:07

last year they're brutal, but like it's

46:09

getting the job done. They've, you know,

46:11

thrown some wrinkles in with personnel on

46:13

certain units and it's changing it all

46:16

up. So that's starting to come through.

46:18

But like if they can just stay

46:20

consistently. consist like they can't

46:22

have like the rest of these teams they

46:24

have to be just better than the rest

46:27

of those teams the Boston the Rangers the

46:29

teams are all down in that area and

46:31

I think they can get in just because

46:33

of the style that they play when they're

46:36

playing well they played their best game of

46:38

the year against Toronto a few nights ago.

46:40

Um, and, and, you know, drop the next

46:42

game to Colorado and then just absolutely destroyed

46:45

the Canadians last night. So it'll be interesting

46:47

tomorrow to see how they handle Ottawa coming

46:49

off a win like that. But they've got

46:51

to stay consistent with their game. They've got

46:54

to be in games. They've got to, they've

46:56

got to collect points. And that's what I

46:58

think you could, their team that can do

47:00

that with what they have. Yeah, they've gotten

47:03

right back into it. You know, Philly's in

47:05

right now. Boston's in right now. That could

47:07

all change. It's really, it's really fun. It's

47:09

come a tight race, but enough of Ask

47:12

Army. We're going to move on to the

47:14

all Game Notes team of the week. Shout

47:16

out again to our guy Max who got

47:18

this to me. I've been super jet lagged

47:21

over here. I've been kids are sleeping three

47:23

hours, four hours, so I didn't get this

47:25

to them until a few hours ago until

47:28

a few hours ago, and he got it

47:30

right back back back back to me. First

47:32

up, I got Kucharov on there, six points

47:34

last night, to make it eight on the

47:37

week, just he's something else every night. And

47:39

then we got Braden point, this guy's unbelievable.

47:41

He just makes everything happen. Three games, nine

47:43

points, including three goals, Braden point, all time,

47:46

stud. Yeah, and I talked

47:48

about the Oilers, of course, Leon, three

47:50

games, two goals, six assists. I put

47:52

him on there because he was plus

47:54

five. I like that. You love that.

47:56

And a lot of points right now.

47:58

Starting to see some goals coming back,

48:00

the overs. still tough to find but

48:02

there is starting to be some more

48:05

than there was say a week or

48:07

two ago. Quinn Hughes with the bubble

48:09

on four games one goal for assist

48:11

plus five Fox same stats by the

48:13

way if you're wondering Rangers fans same

48:15

stats minus one. Yeah, that's

48:17

why he didn't make it. That's why

48:20

he did not make it. They didn't

48:22

like seeing that minus one on there

48:24

with all the points. He did get

48:26

his first goal the season, 200 foot

48:29

empty net goal, which was nice for

48:31

him. Hopefully that gets him going. But

48:33

they were talking on chiklets that he's

48:35

trade bait. Who's the Larry Brooks? And

48:38

he was trade bait. So we'll see

48:40

what happens there. Not the Rangers, but

48:42

the Islanders, no adoption. We don't get

48:44

to talk about the Islanders enough. Four

48:47

games, one goal, three assists, a plus

48:49

three. I like seeing that plus three,

48:51

but their coach wasn't happy with them

48:53

last night. He went nuts. Nuts, nuts.

48:56

And I love no adoption, by the

48:58

way. Just a hockey IQ, smart, good,

49:00

solid player. and we don't talk about

49:03

him enough, never mind the islanders, but

49:05

he's he's fucking good. Charlie Lindgren, Washington

49:07

Capitals, hello, stand up, what is, what

49:09

is Darren Pang column, Chuckie Sideburns, he

49:12

calls him. Two and all, two goals,

49:14

I don't know, in St. Louis days,

49:16

two and all, two goals against Charlie

49:18

Lindgren, Washington Capitals, stand up. Nice.

49:21

All right. And rookie of the week,

49:23

he tried a Michigan last night. I

49:25

have him over one and a half.

49:27

He still doesn't have one. I think

49:29

he's tried three or four, but... That

49:32

was his best one. Four games, two

49:34

goals, three assists, and I got him

49:36

here again. Plus four, a rookie playing

49:38

at a plus four like that throughout

49:40

the week is nice to see. If

49:42

I miss somebody on there, I'm sorry,

49:44

but I like those guys. I like

49:46

the pluses and do better if you

49:48

want to get on there. Yeah, do

49:50

better. Yeah, you want to get on

49:52

our list. Do better. Thank you, Max.

49:54

Unbelievable. Game Notes team of the week.

49:57

Did I tell you? My mom got

49:59

me some Duke Cannon. She got me

50:01

some Duke. I was. wanted the Zip

50:03

neck there to Q-Zep, Chiklets. I lost

50:05

my Chiklets Q-Zep, but she ended up

50:07

getting me the Duke Cannon because she

50:09

wanted me to be all presented during

50:11

our videos like this, but it got,

50:13

it didn't make the cut home. None

50:15

of my underwear, none of my socks,

50:17

a lot of my stuff didn't make

50:19

the suitcases home because my mom went

50:22

crazy on Christmas and the suitcases were

50:24

filled up with Christmas toys and cookies

50:26

and cookies. So they didn't make it

50:28

this strips. I'll get some in Chicago

50:30

to bring back for the rest of

50:32

these. So that's the Game Notes team

50:34

in the week. Time to move on

50:36

to riding the bus. And you know,

50:38

college is better than the CHL, so

50:40

we'll start with college army. Go for

50:42

it. You got your college player, players

50:44

or player or team of the of

50:47

the week. What do you go? Yeah,

50:49

I went with two players. I went

50:51

with the goalies from the University of

50:53

Minnesota, Liam Solier and Nathan Airy. I

50:55

thought you would like me trying to

50:57

pronounce those names, but they also each

50:59

had a shutout versus Michigan this past

51:01

weekend. So they split time. They both

51:03

got the shutout. Michigan's a powerhouse team.

51:05

I think they were number six in

51:07

the country. Pons of offense there. So

51:09

to get shutouts there, I thought was

51:12

pretty neat. I love the

51:14

I love anytime I can get

51:16

you. What did you say? The

51:18

zipneck? The zipneck. We got a

51:20

zipneck. We got the names getting

51:22

butchered. And I'm a little chatlagged

51:24

and skip. to the CHL

52:01

now. No, no, nothing really happened to

52:03

CHL other than like World Juniors is

52:05

on. So, you know, all the best

52:08

players, the CHL primarily are all at

52:10

their, you know, tryouts for team Canada

52:12

right now. They played the youth sports.

52:14

All-Stars, which is like Canadian University hockey

52:16

all-stars and just beat up on them

52:19

five too. So we'll keep track of

52:21

that. We're gonna have to have a

52:23

guest on maybe to discuss and tee

52:25

up as it is that time of

52:27

the season when Christmas comes along. We

52:30

get the boxing day game and the

52:32

tournament kicks off and World Juniors will

52:34

be on the go and we get.

52:36

to look at some of these junior

52:38

players before the stars of tomorrow today

52:41

will be arriving. So those camps are

52:43

going on. We'll have to keep track

52:45

of that. And Merle's last week, we

52:47

gave a huge shout out obviously to

52:49

Easton Cowan and the point streak record

52:51

that he had carried over from two

52:54

seasons, unofficially trying to beat, actually tied

52:56

Doug Gilmore. As soon as we gave

52:58

him the shout out, they played that

53:00

night a week ago, Friday. He gets

53:02

absolutely wallpaper to the neutral zone with

53:05

a huge hit. and doesn't get up

53:07

registering a point. Also they had won

53:09

London nights at one 19 games in

53:11

a row. They were just on fire

53:13

and then they lose that game as

53:16

well. And James, the, the, the, the,

53:18

the, the, the, the, the, the, the,

53:20

the, the, the, the, Yeah, speaking of

53:22

rural juniors, I assume James Higgins will

53:24

be on the U.S. team and I

53:27

mean everybody's talked about him being number

53:29

one pick and I was just I

53:31

was sniffing around draft kings today. I

53:33

saw I saw they had a little

53:35

prop bet you can pick him or

53:38

the field for number one overall next

53:40

year's draft minus 140. I mean, I

53:42

thought that was automatic. I thought it

53:44

was a lock but now I'm here

53:46

in Matthew Schaefer if you're looking for

53:49

a Misa. I've heard Michael Misa too.

53:51

A lot of people are talking about

53:53

him. I've seen him on some. Porter,

53:55

Martone, I believe is his name, Porter.

53:57

I think he has brothers that play

53:59

as well, but he's supposed to be

54:02

up there like a big hulking power

54:04

forward type guy like with skill. So

54:06

yeah, maybe look good looking at some

54:08

of those odds and have your pick.

54:10

Yeah, I just saw it today. I

54:13

saw it maybe an hour before we

54:15

came on. So I haven't even got

54:17

to ask any scouts or GMs that

54:19

I know to try to get some

54:21

scoops on that. Hey, I'm gonna ask

54:24

you, World Juniors, I think you've told

54:26

this story before, did you try out,

54:28

you got cut, did you get cut?

54:30

And that's why you hate USA hockey

54:32

a little bit, it's like a. It's

54:35

like you read my mind, but I

54:37

had this, I had it for show,

54:39

but I'm gonna have to get into

54:41

it now. So today, I get this

54:43

package, a hockey package. and look what

54:46

it is look what it is it's

54:48

it's the three croners i got three

54:50

corners hats oh they know you're the

54:52

world junior guy from the last world

54:54

like you were all over it so

54:56

i'm like where is this coming from

54:59

i ask a couple guys like what

55:01

did you send me all this what

55:03

is this Swedish stuff and and i'm

55:05

i don't know so i finally i

55:07

get a little note it's from here's

55:10

from martin sofi he goes here's a

55:12

little christmas gift from uh CCM and

55:14

Swedish ice hockey association. I said, well,

55:16

you know I'm the four nations guy.

55:18

He said he saw me with the

55:21

three croners and as the Swedish expert

55:23

on chiklets. So I said, well, I

55:25

am, I'm the world junior Swedish guy.

55:27

Now I'm officially the four nations guy.

55:30

What have I ever gotten from USA

55:32

Hockey? I had this already all set.

55:34

I said, they cut me from a

55:37

15 team. They banned me from playing

55:39

in the state tournament when I was

55:41

a squirt because I changed organizations. And

55:43

then they cut me from the rural

55:45

junior team that I should have been

55:47

on as leading the nation in scoring

55:49

of players eligible in college. And they

55:52

cut me. So I have nothing to

55:54

do with USA Hockey. I'm officially three

55:56

croners. Wow, that is absolutely huge. Amazing

55:58

on the Sweden national program. to pay

56:00

attention that you're their guy you're gonna

56:02

be pumping the tires you're gonna be

56:05

boots on the ground and you know

56:07

obviously with an axe to grind on

56:09

team USA I got cut too from

56:11

team Canada at this trial come on

56:13

over I got an extra hat I

56:15

did play for team Canada later at

56:18

world championships. All right. I will be

56:20

I will be quick to replace them

56:22

though, maybe with USA as I did

56:24

last year. Remember last year I jumped

56:26

ship pretty quick when USA took off

56:28

but. I got cut, I got like

56:31

that, I think they called us at

56:33

like 5 in the morning or 5.30

56:35

a.m. Team Canada phone call to say

56:37

come down and you're cut. So I

56:39

got that when I was in junior.

56:41

So I'm with you there, Merles, but

56:44

politics, buddy, you got politics out of

56:46

there. You got politics, right out of

56:48

there. Brutal. USA hockey. I'm

56:50

all Swedish, can't wait for that foreign age,

56:53

can't wait for rural juniors. I had a

56:55

blast last year at it. I don't think

56:57

we'll get there this year, we'll be in

56:59

Chicago with the big boys, it's time for

57:01

Chicklets, chirps, Biz, and Whit, they've taken over

57:03

the internet. First up, we gotta talk Biz,

57:05

fight tapes, they got released, and I know

57:07

it's been seen, and talked about a lot,

57:10

but we gotta cover it quickly. Yeah, Biz

57:12

fights tapes released everyone on the internet was

57:14

waiting for this to come out Chase Stevens

57:16

doing the underground under the hood digging on

57:18

everything to do with the attackers of Biz

57:20

and getting into their world and going into

57:22

the dark web and finding everything but Yeah,

57:24

it came out and like, you know, I

57:27

know Biz described it was pretty much exactly

57:29

what he said. Like this is a great

57:31

first shot of him coming over. and I

57:33

can't leave out quick this part was where

57:35

he's walks over and it wasn't even that

57:37

long. Just boom. The fuse was the fuse

57:39

was lit and you know he's backpedaling out

57:42

of there pretty quickly but like it looks

57:44

like Biz walks over pretty that's how Biz

57:46

walks though like Biz walks like that like

57:48

he's a you know he's an alpha that's

57:50

just the way he walks when he wheels

57:52

over but. in, told in, told

57:54

him to calm down,

57:56

a sudden a sudden everything

57:59

loose. loose. I think

58:01

there's more than than or

58:03

seven guys though, guys

58:05

like though, like Biz at Like

58:07

there's no question. like there's no

58:09

at the door. you

58:11

can out the door. looking at the door,

58:13

things out of this. One, two the guy

58:15

that holds the door. like the guy that

58:18

holds the door, like, it's like, what is

58:20

is this? How do you know hold the door and

58:22

then door? And then the thing that scare me is

58:24

how calmly. the other guys of the

58:26

Irish guys walk out there, like they've

58:28

done this a hundred times. Yeah,

58:30

so for people listening, not watching on

58:32

not watching on YouTube or being held open, the

58:35

fight's still inside now. fight still

58:37

biz walked over and now he's coming out there

58:39

pulling on a shirt shirt guy that out a

58:41

lot is right at the front and there's

58:43

just a pack of them coming out of your

58:45

troops a shirt if that was guy be running out

58:47

there but they're just calmly walking like you've

58:49

done this on your times. and there's just a one thing

58:51

I noticed from all these videos that have

58:53

come out running out is like no one jumped to help

58:55

visit all no one not one person not even in

58:57

the parking lot like I think I saw saw

59:00

a video one guy and like one of the

59:02

older older guys like pushes them up against against

59:04

car was a confirmed confirmed guy did try in

59:06

the restaurant to help but his wife oh I

59:08

saw yeah saw that he tried to saw that he tried

59:10

to get in there twice I'll give him

59:12

for for that pulled wife pulled him out of

59:14

there twice which she's probably smart but good

59:17

on that guy for trying to get in

59:19

there but if that was me I'm dead

59:21

on the ground In the In the restaurant, once

59:23

they him in in that little lane, that might've been

59:25

the only thing that would've saved me because they

59:27

all me at me, but once Biz got outside,

59:29

it was like once Biz got outside, it he gets outside.

59:31

So now we're showing footage of So now we're just

1:00:57

care of, of, but a more

1:00:59

positive stuff on the on the internet,

1:01:02

Whit and Biz, surviving Barstool. I I been been

1:01:04

a fan of a show, like

1:01:06

a reality show. And I don't

1:01:08

know how long I am completely

1:01:10

hooked on this. I ends, I hate when

1:01:12

it ends, I hate that I can't

1:01:14

binge. If you haven't watched it, you are

1:01:16

so lucky now you can go now and

1:01:18

watch six straight episodes. it's awesome is,

1:01:21

it's awesome stuff have been stars of the stars

1:01:23

of the show so far. Yeah, and

1:01:25

like knew Whit such a great athlete.

1:01:27

Like he's throwing throwing, the clips

1:01:29

that are coming out on the coming

1:01:31

out He, he's, he's amazing. Plus

1:01:33

he's a great like talker, we We all

1:01:35

know this. He's, he's, he's funny.

1:01:37

quick, he's but he's quick, be of, be

1:01:39

cut but but he's really savvy. He's

1:01:41

really, really smart too. So from So the

1:01:43

the clips I'm seeing, Whit is just

1:01:45

a star right now. Witt is like

1:01:47

a stud and he's he's stirring it up

1:01:49

and it's just like, it's been electric

1:01:51

to watch all the behind the

1:01:53

scenes scenes side, like things things that's happening

1:01:55

in there and the deals being

1:01:57

cut. pretty So pretty army you're you're kind of

1:01:59

under playing throwing thing because he said this

1:02:01

on a name show this morning he threw

1:02:04

he throws a baseball righty but he throws

1:02:06

a football lefty so he was debating whether

1:02:08

to do his football throw or his baseball

1:02:10

throw and he chose his football throw like

1:02:12

wits never just mention the fact that he's

1:02:15

like fully ampidextrous and can hum a ball

1:02:17

each way it's crazy He's a complex human

1:02:19

and like it looked crazy when he was

1:02:21

throwing it like you in that in that

1:02:24

game that they were showing you have to

1:02:26

stand on a little red circle two feet

1:02:28

on it and you have pretty much have

1:02:30

to stand planted like you can't like crow

1:02:32

hop into it or throw and it's like

1:02:35

a dodge ball. into a net with a

1:02:37

guy playing net. But he was like, he's

1:02:39

so gangly, like, you see how long wit

1:02:41

is? Like, Whit's a big dude, first of

1:02:43

all, he's tall, but he's gangly as shit,

1:02:46

like his legs, his arms, so like he

1:02:48

would throw in his shoulder was leading and

1:02:50

then his arm would whip around and he

1:02:52

was just placing him in the areas. Yeah,

1:02:55

he was like, he was like a gumby

1:02:57

guy, like how do you read that? you

1:02:59

know if you have you ever seen european

1:03:01

handball that's exactly it that's how it is

1:03:03

that's how their penalty shots are you should

1:03:06

they should hire him as a just a

1:03:08

penalty penalty shooter over here are there nets

1:03:10

are bigger though are there nets are bigger

1:03:12

i think in hand i would think they're

1:03:14

bigger than that and i think the ball's

1:03:17

a little little bit smaller too so easier

1:03:19

to like grab and hum i think too

1:03:21

but i i think the goal is are

1:03:23

better than the the net ball players that

1:03:26

looked like they were a little scared of

1:03:28

it Oh, we forget we forget how big

1:03:30

like biz and wit are even like going

1:03:32

back to the fight like these are big

1:03:34

guys compared to normal humans especially in business.

1:03:37

Like we're used to being around bigger guys

1:03:39

the NHL that's how it was back then

1:03:41

and then you always see them two next

1:03:43

to each other so you don't realize how

1:03:45

big they are till you see this stuff

1:03:48

and. there I liked how big cat I

1:03:50

mean this was taped before the brawl there's

1:03:52

no way he goes no bucket against biz

1:03:54

oh in the joust he kind of had

1:03:57

no choice you know like big cat tease

1:03:59

it up from the clip I saw you

1:04:01

gotta go check out on social media and

1:04:03

then check out this show obviously surviving barstool

1:04:05

but Biz just goes up there he's zened

1:04:08

like he's in his zone you know how

1:04:10

he gets all like zoned in he's gonna

1:04:12

do something awesome in that jousting thing no

1:04:14

bucky on he has like the head thing

1:04:16

on like they do on Survivor and then

1:04:19

and then Big Cat goes, oh, you're not

1:04:21

going to wear a buck, you're not going

1:04:23

to wear a helmet, and Biz doesn't even

1:04:25

really answer. And so Big Cat then, like,

1:04:28

you know, Alpha Man style, he's like, yeah,

1:04:30

me neither. Like, I would have probably done

1:04:32

the same thing, but he took a bomb.

1:04:34

This rock, brutal, brutal. All right, I see

1:04:36

some people in the chatter game upset because

1:04:39

they haven't watched it yet. So no more

1:04:41

spoilers and we'll get on to the important

1:04:43

stuff, the gambling. We need to make some

1:04:45

money. Unfortunately, there's only one NHL game tonight,

1:04:47

which kind of is brutal since it's Friday

1:04:50

night. You think that would be a good

1:04:52

night to get the kids to go to

1:04:54

a game. They don't have school tomorrow, especially

1:04:56

around the holidays. But it's Friday to 13.

1:04:59

Ottawa at Carolina. We just talked how bad

1:05:01

Ottawa is. So I'm going on Carolina three-way

1:05:03

minus 140. I was under the hood. Again,

1:05:05

I'm under the hood now. Pasha's got me

1:05:07

looking under the hood. The Keynes have won

1:05:10

six out of seven versus the sends. A

1:05:12

lot of them by minus one and a

1:05:14

half. So, Keynes three way. I'm going to

1:05:16

take Ajo anytime goal plus 175. He seems

1:05:18

to have a knack for scoring whenever I'm

1:05:21

betting them and watching them. But I'm also

1:05:23

going to go the other way. So this

1:05:25

is a nice little parla if you put

1:05:27

all three, if you put all three together.

1:05:30

If you put all three together. because you're

1:05:32

taking a guy on Ottawa and it's Batherson.

1:05:34

This guy over a half a point is

1:05:36

only minus 140. He's he's got a point

1:05:38

in 14 out of 16 games. He's coming

1:05:41

off a hat trick and one assist game.

1:05:43

So if they're going to score a goal,

1:05:45

I'm sure he's going to be part of

1:05:47

it. So those are my three plays. If

1:05:49

you want to cook them up in a

1:05:52

nice little parlay, like Singh's he probably is

1:05:54

or Libby or Laura, then they can post

1:05:56

those odds. there in the chat and I'll

1:05:58

let you know what that is. Yeah, don't

1:06:01

be, don't be shy to sprinkle and Svetchnikov

1:06:03

in there. He's, he's starting to produce, but

1:06:05

yeah, your guy Batherson, eight points in his

1:06:07

last five games played. So, great pick, Merle's.

1:06:09

I like the way he plays, Playmaker can

1:06:12

score, big body guy gets to hard areas,

1:06:14

good player. I'll be watching that for the

1:06:16

preschool for my game against the pens tomorrow.

1:06:18

Again, like a good player that would anybody

1:06:20

would want, but they have all these good,

1:06:23

but they just don't win. They don't have

1:06:25

it together, same as the Sabres. But since

1:06:27

there's only one NHL game, we got to

1:06:29

watch the college. College has the, has the

1:06:32

spotlight on them tonight, a couple games. I

1:06:34

looked at G. I don't know if you've

1:06:36

looked at the card yet. Yeah, I mean

1:06:38

I'm cold as ice right now. I think

1:06:40

I said, take Michigan last Friday night, they

1:06:43

lost six nothing. So I wouldn't necessarily listen

1:06:45

to me, but I do like North Dakota

1:06:47

tonight over St. Cloud. And I only say

1:06:49

that because I looked at the board and

1:06:51

I'm like, you know what, I kind of

1:06:54

like a St. Cloud up set tonight. So

1:06:56

I just went the other way. I love

1:06:58

Gene Prawn, so I took North Dakota. And

1:07:00

then I like Denver over Colorado College too

1:07:03

on the money line. Yeah,

1:07:05

Denver. That's a big rivalry game there. Nick

1:07:07

Davis is in the chat saying CCV DU

1:07:09

tonight. So you're on that one. That a

1:07:11

boy. Is that Davis? Is that the goalie

1:07:13

from Denver? Yeah. Is that his name? He's

1:07:16

in the chat. Hey, he was a player

1:07:18

the week one one week. I think. Yeah,

1:07:20

you got him. Absolutely. You like right now

1:07:22

though, because a lot of guys are at

1:07:24

world juniors camps right now. You know, it's

1:07:26

winter break at a lot of these schools,

1:07:29

a lot of, you know. I

1:07:32

so I'm kind of in your thinking

1:07:34

I did the same thing I just

1:07:36

because Michigan got housed last week in

1:07:38

Wisconsin one who did Wisconsin beat they

1:07:40

beat Michigan State last week big upset

1:07:42

over the number one now they come

1:07:44

down with a letdown Michigan bounces back

1:07:46

three way minus 150 and then I

1:07:49

just talked about the Minnesota goalies so

1:07:51

I got a ride the shutout streak

1:07:53

so I'm just going to take under

1:07:55

six there not a great bet but

1:07:57

I mean I just talked about how

1:07:59

these goalies are great. So I'm gonna

1:08:01

ride the under in that game. And

1:08:03

a boy, I love that. Hey, funny,

1:08:05

funny thing here, Merle's for you. Patrick

1:08:07

Pearson in the chat is saying that

1:08:10

end, endos in the chat, chain, endo,

1:08:12

is that true? Is it? Oh, geez,

1:08:14

O. Egel, legend. He's the first guy

1:08:16

ever knew that went to Japan. Yeah,

1:08:18

I ended up going to the same

1:08:20

team as him. Endo. I spent more

1:08:22

time in that hot tub rookie year

1:08:24

in Wilkesbury with Endo than I did

1:08:26

anything else. Love Endo. I heard his

1:08:28

boys are playing hockey. There's studs. That's

1:08:31

what I heard back scoop coming out

1:08:33

of Saskatoon. Oh, some guy just said

1:08:35

song. And he'll start the chat. He's

1:08:37

got better things to do. Come on.

1:08:39

This guy, Merle's address, taking Bruin's day

1:08:41

games off EBR, then watching them win.

1:08:43

Ah, that was a good move by

1:08:45

me. I don't know if you caught

1:08:47

that one on Saturday afternoon. I have

1:08:49

my rule and I made the video

1:08:52

deleting it officially from the rules to

1:08:54

turn the game. And it went back.

1:08:56

Oh, they went right back and won

1:08:58

the reverse mush. Always works. I love

1:09:00

how you do that. Some people are

1:09:02

rookies. They don't get what I'm doing.

1:09:04

Oh, you can't come back on now.

1:09:06

That was a great video. So I

1:09:08

loved laughing my ass off with that

1:09:10

one. Doug Deep, dug deep for that

1:09:13

one to turn the game. Sometimes you

1:09:15

gotta dig real deep and do all

1:09:17

sorts of crazy stuff to get going.

1:09:19

Just like when you're playing, to break

1:09:21

a goal scoring streak, the stuff I

1:09:23

would do. Love Buster, anything. Geez. Sleep

1:09:25

upside down, drink a beer before the

1:09:27

game, everything. It doesn't matter. Sleep with

1:09:29

your stick. Yeah, it was nuts. It

1:09:31

was nuts. All right, show, Mindz. I

1:09:34

did a lot of that in the

1:09:36

Mindz. Army, show, what do you got.

1:09:43

I forgot about our great intro, my

1:09:46

bad, my bad, my bad. I saw

1:09:48

this clip on the internet though. I

1:09:50

thought it was just awesome. It's the

1:09:52

biggest rock star thing ever too. But

1:09:54

Charles Barkley, hockey guy, loves it. Went

1:09:56

to a college hockey game outside a

1:09:58

buffalo like Furdonia. like SUNY? Do you

1:10:00

know where that is, Merle's? Do you

1:10:02

understand where this area? He was? Alpha

1:10:05

Buffalo on the way to Pittsburgh. Yeah,

1:10:07

I get Division three school now. Division

1:10:09

three school, he went there, he said,

1:10:11

he made an announce, he's seen and

1:10:13

he's at a bar post game. Two

1:10:15

nothing win for the home team. Everybody,

1:10:17

you know in that area, they're getting

1:10:19

slammed. And he does the biggest legendary

1:10:22

move ever. I think we have the

1:10:24

video of it, of his little announcement.

1:10:26

Here it. If

1:10:32

you imagine these college kids going

1:10:34

up there, give me five of

1:10:36

those, give me some music that

1:10:39

I listen to right now, and

1:10:41

for the next, for the next

1:10:43

five songs, for the next five

1:10:46

songs, all the drinks are free

1:10:48

at the bar. Hey, the explosion

1:10:50

from those kids is unbelievable. I'm

1:10:52

like, that's the biggest legendary move.

1:10:55

Goes to these little hole in

1:10:57

the wall, bar, the little hole

1:10:59

in the wall college in Western

1:11:02

New York, and just does that.

1:11:04

Five songs, that's a lot of

1:11:06

drinks, that's a long time. Like,

1:11:09

what is that? Four, three to

1:11:11

five minutes a song? 20 minutes,

1:11:13

25 minutes. We used to have

1:11:15

a place in Albany, it was

1:11:18

quarter drafts on Friday, say from

1:11:20

four to six. And when it

1:11:22

turned 555, it was give me

1:11:25

20, give me 30, and they

1:11:27

would just line them up on

1:11:29

the bar so then you could

1:11:32

just drink for free the rest

1:11:34

of the night. That was awesome.

1:11:36

What a Charles Barkley though to

1:11:38

the show, the biggest beauty move

1:11:41

ever, showing up, partying with the

1:11:43

people, a man of the people,

1:11:45

and then. And then give them

1:11:48

a little treat with, you know, pretty much 20

1:11:50

minutes to drink on him at the bar. People

1:11:52

just went nuts. It's like that gift when they

1:11:54

put that big screen TV and everyone goes crazy.

1:11:56

Everyone has to put it. It's that. what

1:11:58

it was the reaction

1:12:00

shout out to out to the shout

1:12:03

But it's, yeah, I'm just so

1:14:47

proud of her. Tough as nails

1:14:49

powerful up there delivering and yes

1:14:51

Amazing cause especially because you guys

1:14:53

are living through it. So yeah

1:14:55

to her what a man you

1:14:57

got a tough strong woman you

1:14:59

better not an animal you can't

1:15:01

fuck that up I mean you're

1:15:03

not the brightest but like no

1:15:05

chance that you do anything to

1:15:07

mess that one up buddy. No,

1:15:09

it's soft as baby shit. Yeah.

1:15:11

She's so much tougher than me.

1:15:13

So, and gets up there and

1:15:15

battled cancer and all this stuff

1:15:18

and then does that? I mean,

1:15:20

Jesus. Total threat, all the threats.

1:15:22

What do they call that? She's

1:15:24

a five, she's a five tool

1:15:26

athlete. There it is. Yes. I

1:15:28

got nothing to follow that one

1:15:30

up and I already used my

1:15:32

show, wouldn't even come close to

1:15:34

that. That one's in the Hall

1:15:36

of Fame. Alana's in the Hall

1:15:38

of Famous shows. We're just going

1:15:40

to go right to the Mindsies

1:15:42

after that. What do you got

1:15:44

army? What are you sending down?

1:15:46

Well, the one thing that my

1:15:48

wife called me the other day

1:15:50

and she was all bent out

1:15:52

of shape about this and I

1:15:54

think everyone would be, everyone in

1:15:57

the chat would be. I know

1:15:59

you guys will TV

1:16:04

subscription prices are just going through the

1:16:06

roof they're killing everybody right now with

1:16:08

this it's almost like everyone was cutting

1:16:10

their chords and getting all these subscriptions

1:16:12

and now they're like they're they're them

1:16:15

yeah exactly that i went to them

1:16:17

they were 25 bucks and you could

1:16:19

have like four TVs on it so

1:16:21

it was it was awesome And it

1:16:24

was just so easy to navigate. So

1:16:26

now I'm hooked on it. I'm not

1:16:28

going to change. They know what they're

1:16:30

doing. Yeah, that's how they do it.

1:16:32

That's how the cell phone companies do

1:16:35

it. That's how they do it. But

1:16:37

right now, YouTube TV is on my

1:16:39

radar with this thing. Mine. Mine. I

1:16:41

saw a lot of people complaining too.

1:16:43

You should get a YouTube premium account

1:16:46

at least. if you are paying the

1:16:48

YouTube TV because you got to pay

1:16:50

I think eight nine bucks for that

1:16:52

so they can at least throw that

1:16:54

in for the eighty three dollars or

1:16:57

whatever they moved it up to but

1:16:59

uh moving on from that pasha mindsies

1:17:01

and I see it's not the rangers

1:17:03

again thankfully it's It's not the Rangers.

1:17:06

I had to run down as the

1:17:08

Bruins, but we kind of talked about

1:17:10

them earlier in the show and you

1:17:12

know, I don't want to just keep

1:17:14

harp on them. But just five seconds

1:17:17

ago, it popped into my head. So

1:17:19

my mind's ease is the son of

1:17:21

the lawyer that Irish travelers hired. I

1:17:23

don't know if you saw this, but

1:17:25

I guess he DM that Shea Stevens

1:17:28

guy, something along the lines of like,

1:17:30

fuck you, you Canadian Pussy or whatever.

1:17:32

And then like obviously Shea Stevens posted

1:17:34

it. well worded which you know his

1:17:37

dad wrote like apology of you know

1:17:39

I thought my mistake for what I

1:17:41

said blah blah blah so just all-time

1:17:43

dumb move by the son and you

1:17:45

know the dad sitting there being like

1:17:48

what like son what are you doing

1:17:50

here like come on so well for

1:17:52

sure the dad wrote that I read

1:17:54

it I like for sure that's not

1:17:56

like some like dork kid at Arizona

1:17:59

State. Like that's a dad lawyer writing

1:18:01

it. 100% so like what is that

1:18:03

kid doing? What a clown. And it

1:18:05

just adds like another wrinkle to this

1:18:07

never ending saga. I feel like every

1:18:10

day there's just like you can't make

1:18:12

this storyline up. So yeah. That's

1:18:14

a story that never seems to end.

1:18:16

Gee, what do you got going to

1:18:19

the Mindsies? Jesus, speaking of stories you

1:18:21

can't make up. I want to call

1:18:23

the state of New Jersey to the

1:18:25

Mindsies. Boys, there are drones everywhere and

1:18:27

nobody knows what the hell is going

1:18:29

on. It's crazy. Pentagon doesn't know what's

1:18:31

going on. The senators in New Jersey

1:18:33

don't know what's going on. I don't

1:18:35

understand why we aren't shooting these suckers

1:18:37

down immediately. President Trump's got a house

1:18:40

here in New Jersey. Like what the

1:18:42

hell is going on? We got New

1:18:44

Jersey senators saying it's a it's Iran.

1:18:46

They got a mother ship outside the

1:18:48

country. So much shit happening here in

1:18:50

New Jersey. Everyone's freaking out and they

1:18:52

just keep telling us they don't know

1:18:54

what's going on. Army's telling me before

1:18:56

this. It's Project Blue Beam. Get the

1:18:58

tin foil, wrap it around the head,

1:19:01

that's even crazier. I don't know what's

1:19:03

going on, but army, why aren't we

1:19:05

shooting these things down? No, why are

1:19:07

we? Don't worry, gee, it's just Tommy

1:19:09

Fitzplatt's planning the parade route, it's all

1:19:11

good. I'm seeing videos on social media.

1:19:13

Have you seen any of them out

1:19:15

in your area, gee, have you spotted

1:19:17

them in the skies at all? Are

1:19:19

you hearing first? the council? I'm in

1:19:22

the city so I haven't but I

1:19:24

have buddies Alanis families in Bridgewater they're

1:19:26

seeing them there all up and down

1:19:28

the Jersey shore people are seeing them

1:19:30

it is and they're saying they're like

1:19:32

20 foot long drones and and there's

1:19:34

a lot of threat to public safety

1:19:36

yeah but we also don't know what

1:19:38

it is so you saw the the

1:19:40

lady pressing the lady at the Pentagon

1:19:43

she's like wait so how can you

1:19:45

say you don't know that it's a

1:19:47

threat to society? but you also in

1:19:49

the same sentence say you don't know

1:19:51

who it is and where it's coming

1:19:53

from. It's unbelievably wild like I'm like

1:19:55

clicking it's like the biggest thing right

1:19:57

now like everyone's following it there's like

1:19:59

no answers. know, people are saying, they

1:20:01

have two words, what is it, UFO

1:20:04

and UAP or something? Yeah, that's like,

1:20:06

what the fuck is that? Like, what

1:20:08

is it? Like, figure it out, like,

1:20:10

whack these things out of the sky.

1:20:12

I've seen videos of people trying to

1:20:14

fly their own personal little home drones,

1:20:16

the ones that are like normal, not

1:20:18

ones that are size of a minivan

1:20:20

that are up there, and they can't

1:20:22

even fly them, like their batteries are

1:20:25

getting zapped. Yeah, any time you, like

1:20:27

when we go do a sandbag or

1:20:29

like all these drones and Pasha could

1:20:31

probably speak more on it, but like

1:20:33

all these drones are like registered in

1:20:35

a system, right? So the second like

1:20:37

Pasha puts his drone up, the government

1:20:39

like can shut it down at any

1:20:41

time. So like the fact that we

1:20:43

can't shut these big fucking 20 foot

1:20:46

drones down and we're not shooting them

1:20:48

down? If this was happening like Texas

1:20:50

or something, I'll like all the guys

1:20:52

out in front with this. in their

1:20:54

backyard trying to shoot these back. Well,

1:20:56

think how many airports are there too,

1:20:58

like in that surrounding area of like

1:21:00

New York, New Jersey, Philly, like everything

1:21:02

around, it's highly active, like how are

1:21:04

they letting planes flying around with these

1:21:07

fucking pigs flying in the air all

1:21:09

over the place? Are they orbs? Are

1:21:11

they drones? Are they drones? Do we

1:21:13

know? I've seen some videos that looks

1:21:15

like a drone. There's weird lighting on

1:21:17

it. Like it might be a drone,

1:21:19

like it might be a drone. No

1:21:21

fucking answers. And the government thinks we're

1:21:23

stupid. The like the way they talk

1:21:25

to us, they're just like you guys.

1:21:28

Oh, it's nothing. Don't worry about it.

1:21:30

No biggie. It's like, what do you

1:21:32

mean? No biggie? There's a 20 foot

1:21:34

drone flying over my house right now

1:21:36

and you're saying you don't know where

1:21:38

it came from. Yeah, there's a thousand

1:21:40

of them. They're all buzzing around all

1:21:42

over the place together. What are they

1:21:44

doing? I'm glad I'm in Sweden.

1:21:47

It's so dark here you wouldn't be able

1:21:49

to see any drones at all anyway. Mindsies though,

1:21:51

that is so interesting to me. morals, that's the

1:21:53

thing, they're only coming out at night. And

1:21:55

then when you get a light on them, they

1:21:57

just go dark, they instantly go dark. That's the

1:22:00

crazy. I haven't heard about it. at all.

1:22:02

I've been in a time warp the last few

1:22:04

days. I got I got to research this after

1:22:06

the show. Someone said it call the grams. Interesting.

1:22:08

Very interesting. Good minds he's

1:22:10

there gee my minds is the video I

1:22:13

got sent what's the guy's name that sent

1:22:15

it to me where to go Kevin on

1:22:17

Instagram he sent me this video he was

1:22:19

at a Seattle cracking game and first he

1:22:22

just explained it to me he said one

1:22:24

of the pucks went up behind the net

1:22:26

it hit the net and you know how

1:22:28

it can like dribble down and then it

1:22:31

falls between the glass and the net so

1:22:33

that as this puck was doing this this

1:22:35

guy from the fourth row does a Superman

1:22:37

dive over two other rows into the front

1:22:40

row on the guy fighting for the puck.

1:22:42

So that behavior is mindsies. I tried to

1:22:44

get the video, it didn't come out good,

1:22:46

but normally it's, he didn't give the puck

1:22:49

to a kid. That's what I thought he

1:22:51

was gonna say. I was like, well, that

1:22:53

happens all the time. That's, that's not getting

1:22:55

on game notes. Minds, then he sent me

1:22:58

the video of it, the guy jumping over.

1:23:00

buckles this guy from behind and it's just

1:23:02

oh if that happened behavior sitting there with

1:23:04

my family front row and a guy pancakes

1:23:07

me down so like my my knees are

1:23:09

over my head I'm bent in half I'd

1:23:11

get them down I just start walloping up

1:23:13

a wall of them yeah I would I'd

1:23:16

be red-shirt guy in that brawl just kicking

1:23:18

away I'm going to give G

1:23:20

the win today on show Mindes. Two

1:23:22

incredible ones. I'm going to take the

1:23:24

L. I was pathetic. And I'm going

1:23:26

to change that around though by giving

1:23:29

you some good picks for Saturday. Yeah

1:23:31

Saturday picks murals 15 games. I love

1:23:33

it. We got a full slate. We

1:23:35

got it all happening. We got it

1:23:37

all going on. Everything. Lots to pick

1:23:39

from. Where are you going with this?

1:23:41

You know me? Especially when I'm in

1:23:43

Europe. I'm on the early games because

1:23:45

they're prime time time time here. Pasha,

1:23:48

Devils minus one and a half minus

1:23:50

106 first the Blackhawks. We talked how

1:23:52

bad the Blackhawks are, we love how

1:23:54

the Devils are at home during the

1:23:56

afternoon. Jasper Bratwood, an empty net gold.

1:23:58

at least like worst case scenario, that's

1:24:00

what it comes down to if they're

1:24:02

not blowing them out by then. I

1:24:05

agree. Next one up. I had apologized.

1:24:07

I did apologize. Kings are good. Kings

1:24:09

are going to make the playoffs. I

1:24:11

was completely wrong about them. Lost. Who

1:24:13

did they lose to? New Jersey? Three

1:24:15

one last night, but they were right

1:24:17

there. That team is good. Fiala. Then

1:24:19

D man, a young D man. Clark.

1:24:21

What a stud he is. Oh, so

1:24:24

I'm on them. We talked about other

1:24:26

rangers. Everything's going wrong for them until

1:24:28

they can prove it turned around. I'm

1:24:30

on the Kings. I'm still waiting for

1:24:32

love. You let to get his walking

1:24:34

papers on the airplane. So I don't

1:24:36

want it after that game. I want

1:24:38

it like he gave it to me

1:24:41

on the airplane. Next up, Vegas Oilers

1:24:43

under six and a half. One nothing

1:24:45

murals and I'll say with no penalties

1:24:47

too. I think it was the first

1:24:49

time in like, I don't know how

1:24:51

many years since I ever happened in

1:24:53

the NHL. Yeah, that's when you gave

1:24:55

me the low event hockey, the correct

1:24:57

term, low event hockey. And next up,

1:25:00

just the theme of the show, I'm

1:25:02

on Vancouver Moneyline minus 116, home against

1:25:04

the Bruins, till you can prove they

1:25:06

have not beaten a team that's in

1:25:08

a playoff position since Joe Sacko took

1:25:10

over. You're going to have to do

1:25:12

it. I'm going to keep fading you.

1:25:14

I'm going to keep riding that streak

1:25:16

and keep cashing tickets against you, Bruins.

1:25:19

Sorry, G. Oh, G's going to be

1:25:21

upset about that. Yeah, we know. We

1:25:23

know. But he's a realist too. He

1:25:25

sees it. He's a super fan. Bruins

1:25:27

have lost two in a row. So

1:25:29

we'll see come Saturday, pick and win

1:25:31

a row. Eight one, five one. Vancouver

1:25:33

just beat him, two, two, two, two,

1:25:36

nothing two, two, two, two, two. Minus.

1:25:38

Minus 23. Minus 23, two, two, two,

1:25:40

two, two, three, two, two, two, two,

1:25:42

two, two, two, two, two, two, two,

1:27:36

it up it up live the gift that

1:27:38

keeps on giving murals I have a great

1:27:40

story. I just thought of it about

1:27:42

that. We were in We Antonio and

1:27:45

I was was with Ryan Caldwell. We were

1:27:47

playing the Chicago the Chicago They had everybody,

1:27:49

everybody, Krog, Hadar, you know, know, $10 million payroll. We

1:27:51

had a We had a great team,

1:27:53

huge weekend down in San Antonio, two

1:27:55

games. We had all the fighters.

1:27:57

We had had and we had we had vandals.

1:28:00

was a cage match and we just

1:28:02

pummeled them. We dummied this team. And

1:28:04

they were number one in the league.

1:28:06

But at one point, Andre Devoe's stick

1:28:08

ends up in our bench. And he's

1:28:10

calling over, he's that big meat too.

1:28:12

And he's looking over like, hey guys

1:28:14

got my stick, you guys got my

1:28:16

stick. And this is right when that's

1:28:18

like CCM deal came where everybody had

1:28:20

to use CCM, but you could pay

1:28:23

your own way and use Easton. Caldwell

1:28:26

looks at him and he goes, oh, this

1:28:28

year stick, boom, like that, snaps it. The

1:28:30

guy's face, it was almost in tears, like,

1:28:32

dude, I have to pay for my own

1:28:34

sticks because I'm using Easton. He

1:28:37

had the exempt. Yeah, you get the

1:28:39

guys that get the exempt, but you

1:28:41

have to do something for it like

1:28:43

that. Yeah, I remember that. That was

1:28:45

he was devastated called breaks it right

1:28:47

in his face. But that was just

1:28:49

kind of the kind of series we

1:28:51

were having. We're just we're just being

1:28:53

like ruthless to each other, just crab

1:28:55

and hey, our vaniers, just grabbing, hey,

1:28:57

it was just a chaos in the

1:28:59

Mindsees. But I'm really heroes. Don't do

1:29:01

that, I got some plays before. Actually,

1:29:03

I think they're after my bills. My

1:29:05

bills have a huge game. Yeah, you

1:29:07

got five games on Sunday murals. Let's

1:29:09

go. Give it to us. Yeah, I

1:29:12

mean, Bill's Lions, that's gonna be a

1:29:14

tough game. Bill's are the best team

1:29:16

in the league. Josh Allen's the best

1:29:18

player ever to play football. But, um.

1:29:20

Taking your Toronto Maple Leafs, minus one

1:29:22

and a half versus Sabres, plus 120.

1:29:24

We've talked about the Sabres. I watched

1:29:26

them Wednesday. I can't believe my eyes

1:29:28

how bad they were. And the main

1:29:30

reason I'm on the minus one and

1:29:32

a half instead of just money line

1:29:34

or three way. I had the Leafs

1:29:36

last night minus one and a half

1:29:38

live when I woke up in the

1:29:40

middle of the night to bet and

1:29:42

watch them. Marner had two glorious looks

1:29:44

at it. One missed by an inch

1:29:46

and then the other one I just

1:29:48

don't know how we missed the net.

1:29:50

Because Tavares could have scored it. He's

1:29:52

like, oh, I'll give it to Marner.

1:29:54

It's going to be easier. So I

1:29:56

know how the gambling works. They'll cover

1:29:58

minus one and a half. They've

1:30:01

covered against the jackets four in a

1:30:03

row at home minus one and a

1:30:05

half again under the hood stats I'm

1:30:07

going with and here it is theme

1:30:09

of the whole show Ranger stink and

1:30:11

you know I love the blues the

1:30:13

pesky blues they're in the hunt again

1:30:15

they got back in the playoff hunt

1:30:17

just like our penguins blues money line

1:30:19

plus 125 at home they just lost

1:30:21

last night to the shark so you

1:30:23

know they'll be ready to play on

1:30:25

Sunday. And you know what I'm thinking

1:30:27

1:30:29

1:30:31

1:30:33
