Game night will never be the same. Shop now on Walmart.com. Me and Ryan have been officially welcomed to the jungle that is possible sports. I brought it toward the coyotes and I asked him if it was okay if I joined a spitt chicklets podcast full time. No little bit, no. Ryan Whitney's got a pink Whitney out there now. I'm just a man-bagger. Get that on camera. He can handle the song, man. It's a full-time member. Marley just got this. This is from Chris Bate. Whoa, where buzzing right now. What is up folks? Welcome to episode 676 and Biz is already dancing. Pinkies up, that's right. But no, Reese's boys, Halloween's coming. I believe right now 16 days from today, it is Thursday, October 15th, early in the afternoon, and Reese's is on my mind. It's everywhere in my house. They sent me hundreds and hundreds of peanut butter cups. Thinking I'd give them out. No, I eat them. I get them cold and I eat them. I put them in my mouth and I eat them. That sounds a little odd but I love Reese's. So everyone out there for Halloween, support the kids because you know that's what they want. They don't want other stuff. They want Reese's. Pieces, peanut butter cups. There's a bunch of different Reese's you can go grab. So go out and grab them. Once again, the presenting sponsor of spittin' chicklets. I know, I know. We made it. The benefit to having Reese's as a presenting sponsor is I get to be the hero on the block handing out the big candy bars. I might even get them to send the four-banger packs and be like, "Hey kid, just remember, don't be egging my house next year or even the rest of this year around the first time." The first thing I said when I signed my six times four million dollar deal, thanks Sid, was I'll forever now be a guy handing out full size candy on Halloween. I will not be one of those people giving miniature candies out and no offense to any of you people, but when you sign a six times. You people? You sign a six times. Last time you said that, I got them fired. You say six when you sign a six times four 24 total. You're handing out full size candy bars, okay? So, Bizz, welcome to my world and bring it on. Bizz, you know what a nice play is to do on Halloween with the Reese's? I don't know if you're actually going to be out there handing them out and whatnot. Get yourself a nice little cooler. Get some ice and keep them on the cooler for the kid. So when they get it, it's a little chill the way you like it. Okay. That's a great idea. That's a great idea. That's a great idea. That's what I'd hell of an idea, brother. Maybe get a little cooler idea, dummy. I know you didn't think of it. Last thing I'll mention about Halloween. Have you guys thought of any, any maybe costumes? I mean, maybe I'll go as Don Cherry considering you just robbed the U-peeps with a and have a huge poppy on the on the jacket. Just like a reason. So it's like a poppy jacket. The print would be all poppies. I think this thing just worked out perfectly for your Halloween costume. Why it's being a baseball player? Ryder wanted to be a naval like a naval officer. We ordered the costume. You know, one of those like $30 costumes. Then he saw it and he's like, I don't want to be that anymore. I was like, this costume's busted. Are you signed six year? Four million dollars. You don't buy a $30 costume. Yeah, what the fuck with? You and listen in the Navy. No, no, no, no, you're costume. And then, no, you buy about 20 of them and let them choose which 20 wants. That's what you do with those six times. Four. No, I don't know what he's going to be. Ideally, he would be a baseball player to the two boy baseball players. I don't know though. Halloween. Keith knows Keith's probably hard is aching right now because it's it's a day that's pretty special. All of a sudden, when your kids are a little older, my guess would be it's like, oh, thanks. I remember running around with them in the excitement and the wonderment. How's that word biz? Don't know it. You know, kid motherfucker. The wonderment. The wonderment of children is just a hell of a night. You know, it's it's and and I don't know what I'm going to be yet, but it'll be something. It'll be something. We do have these giant like octopus squid arms that we put on the windows and then they like there's air blowing in them so they're all like it's like it's in the house and it's yeah, it's great. It's great. We were thought we weren't going to do it this year and then why it asked for it's like, oh, that's a long afternoon setting those up. But, you know, that's what you do for the kids on Halloween because at some point they're going to not even want to see you. They're going to be out there shaving creaming people's cars. Here's this for recess contest. How about all you chicken fans who are listening. You tag our our social media and you send us how you decorated your house for Halloween ahead of Halloween and we'll send you a couple boxes so you can hand out the big boy candy bars on behalf of us, the peanut butter cup world and recess of course. I love it or eat them yourself or eat them yourself. You know what ever you want with them. Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, it's any any ideas for what maybe you might go for Halloween this year. You love going love love Halloween. I like to keep mine a little bit quiet till the day or two because I like to scare people. I like to go around my neighborhood and a lot of people in the neighborhood listen to the show. So, you know, I like to just kind of blend in and scare some people get the people going a little bit. So I'm going to keep my costume on the hush hush. Just just so I can scare those, you know, 20 people in the neighborhood that listen. My favorite part of Halloween is obviously the girls who dress in absolutely nothing. I knew I won't go too much into it. Okay, Shane Gillis. Yeah, Shane, but yeah, I'm excited for this Halloween. I'm undecided. I think that the early front runner in order to pay homage would be Mike Dickah. And I know we didn't really talk about his death on this podcast. We're not a football podcast, but I just like obviously like it's like horrible news because he's such a legend in the sport of football and even like even if you weren't a football fan, you knew my culture and pop culture and all like the comedy skits in which they did on SNL. He was in that kicking screaming movie with Will Ferrell, but like, but just like hearing the old school football guys tell stories about him, like how he was in the locker room and the old school accountability, like him snapping on reporters, asking stupid questions, like he was like a larger than life character who I'm surprised we didn't get an obituary from from R.A. Because usually he's the death guy, but considering we're talking about Halloween costumes, I would imagine that his kind of resurface as a as a pop contender because because of his recent passing. I had a question for you of something you might be willing to do. And this is after four different regular listen, listeners of the pod reached out about this one former player, my guy, Maxine Lapeja. Oh, Lisa, Fabian, Cuba Conoc, motherfucker to play against. He was another person who said, I need more Pierre. So I was wondering how your cousin Pierre's doing. Go to your front door if Pierre was electric. And if you think he's not showing up for fucking recess on Halloween, you're out of your mind, bro. He's going to come as a Ferrari driver with his car out front. I might go as Pierre. Okay. So a couple crazy things. After we were finishing recording that podcast, I sat with him until he ended up leaving because he was waiting for me to leave first because he's such a classy guy. Like, and I'm not exaggerating. Pierre is, he's taught notch, man. Well, I told you I was walking in the hotel. He didn't see me. He's valeing his car and the guys like, what room? And he's like, no, no, no, no, no, I don't want to put it on room. I want to pay for it. And then he whipped out like some loonies and tunies and the guys like, that's not going to work and that's he was trying to pay and not just roll up the rim gift cards here. He tried to play and that Reese's jersey that you had on. Yeah. Well, I did give him one of those. Okay. So like, obviously, like, he's my cousin, right? And like, we're close to the point where, you know, when I see him, we hang out. Am I interacting and texting with him all the time? No, I don't think he's much of a texture. Obviously not considering wanting to give him the fucking heads up that he's coming to check. Let's go back to that. You know, his number saved. I mean, I get that. And I probably would have thought I was some kebac. Oh, I tell a marketer. So, I go, Pierre, how old are you now? And he goes 47 on the wait, 48. Cause and when he said, on the wait, 48, he looked at his phone. It was his birthday weekend. No, he didn't even, buddy, he didn't even fucking tell us that it was even no possibly. That's the thing, though, till he looked at his phone. Maybe that was his surprise for himself birthday. Okay, he looks great for 48. Awesome. Other than the huge barrel, like he swallowed the airbag. That's all right. But he's French, he's French Canadian. And he's, you know, put in good. So I told him, I said, Pierre, I said, Hey, man, like, Do you mind like giving me the heads up for next year check let's go because we're probably going to be doing it here again like I'd love to have you and like we'll coordinate like we'll get you a flight we'll get your car service We'll have a hotel prepared for you. You don't have to pay the valet guy and roll up the rim to win gifts certificates It'll all be set up for you buddy And you'll even be the GM of whatever team that I come with next next year. Oh, no, but I know I like to I like to surprise you And I and then we got into the the flight conversation and maybe why he didn't flat fly down This is the craziest thing that I have ever heard He has been on one flight in his life his whole life his whole life The only place that he has ever flown to is Columbia Columbia, bro Because because and how this all came up is he goes oh Like he's like oh, you know, he's like it's kind of a pain in the ass going home because they always stop me and give me a hard time because of my passport and I'm like what's up with your passport? He's like oh like the the the only stamp I have is his Columbia And I'm like why is the only stamp you have Columbia? And he's like well, that's the only place. He's buddy He the only time he's ever been in an airplane He's never got on an airplane to fly somewhere in his own country. He's forty eight years old He's never flown to the United States, buddy But he ripped it up with some pure Columbia and magic for one week in Bogota one year. What did he do there? I never asked hugs. He went to surprise the cartel And they were gonna kill but like this guy's two guys too too cool. He's like the he's the best. Oh, he is something else Dude, he is I also overheard as I was leaving Keith business was like, Hey Pierre, where's the weed? He's like I gave it to the old guy. He's like Oh, he's like the old guy from the podcast And he just like I look over in R a's like over in the corner of the lobby of the hotel wrong joint This like go get it back Hey, and you know what though? So I had a so me R a and Pierre went out and we we had a few talks It was the first time that I had a few talks in the last two weeks But other than that like I'm trying to go off the weed. I've felt good. It's hard It's been the hardest thing to kick like booze. No problem. Obviously. I'm off the sauce now. I'm going no weed. Okay. Yeah You're the booze is you still have the weed and then now to go nothing. It's like all of a sudden you get nothing that wow I know more. Okay, it's like a whack-a-mole Like a whack-a-mole and if you somehow quit that too, it's like all of a sudden. There's just like Biz just like naked in the middle of a Walmart losing his goddamn mind like what happened this guy? Oh, he quit booze Beaton it in marijuana. It's like oh Jesus the triple crown. You got to have at least one vice. Yeah And and you could pick from a bunch just how about we get I mean what like what's another vice? No, I know what it is What are you CHL team that's going to become my new vice? You're actually going there aren't you today? I'm here tomorrow I'm here.

I don't know if you guys know, but I was a true time ECHL all star and they were trying to take me off my game like I wouldn't fight defend myself So what did I do? I fucking grabbed that little rat and I fucking pounded his skull in And then the next game was in wheeling and I told our boy Billy Higgins our our trainer slash Fush driver social mediated bus driver He helped with the ticket sales. He pretty much did it all Billy Higgins. He bugged. I said Billy I said you know the player of the game the the WWE belt we give away I said go put that on the bench is when I go up for warm up I'm gonna let those fuckers for redding no exactly whose boss why I went out there for warm up I put that belt on my shoulder.

I sat down. He said biz you had a hell of a weekend. I love how you fight and compete for this team But the redding royals those scumbags put in the video the surveillance video of the arena to show that you brought out that WWE belt and you're gonna get suspended for a game and you're fine a hundred and fifty dollars from the league And if you don't have a if you don't have a cat a hundred and fifty bucks that was fucking those are my groceries in the ECH That's true.

I wouldn't talk him am I a hater maybe it made me feel a little better That he has no idea what he's doing in terms of pitching a baseball to a catcher bent over in a squat being you Paul Bissonette That was pathetic his wind up was pretty good like bringing it back into the stretch the throw was horrendous Did it hit you in the knee biz? I saw you grabbing your knee. Yeah, I'm on crutches right now But going back who's was worse his or Colby Armstrong's during the yak throwing a football or or 50% or 50 cent Um, so Hank's blaming around the thread count.

So I don't know what that was But uh, I made up for it. Do you see mine yours was pretty good. Thank you bullet I signed a one-day pto for the well and jack fish uh the lowest level of minor league baseball and well And then I challenged the other teams bench Um, that didn't go over well I was ejected and then and then once again had to pay the league $150. So I'm pretty I'm down bad when it comes to the lower levels of Prosper that's your vice now. Just paying 150 dollar fines. That's it. That's what you should do. Give speeding tickets parking tickets That'll be what you that's your new vice uh back to the frozen friends Incredible night incredible. They're doing another one in April. Are they gonna tell us? Okay, so that's the thing now We recorded we recorded here tonight. What else? What else did La Pierre want from Pierre like what else? La Pierre I just need more Pierre. I just Want more Pierre in my life. I said, I get it. Hey, it's our our race world is on fucking And we got sent down. We got pigeon toss. We got Pierre's world. I need Pierre Oldie and memes doing a roadtrip show and I think it would work out good because Pierre hasn't seen any of the world besides No, no Columbia and Boston, but they can only drive there in Pierre's Ferrari. Yeah He's got the kit. He's got the Honda Civic with the with the Ferrari kit. He's got everything in terms of close For cars. I don't know if the cars represent like him is as well as the clothes do But if you see him walking down the street, he's an F1 driver But the frozen frenzy we recorded Sunday and then usually record Monday's Mondays I'm hanging out and and I said wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm checking the schedule. I'm like Every team plays tomorrow night. What the and then I'm looking yeah frozen frenzy There was not one piece of advertisement for this to the point where like I think when games were Starting people were like, oh shit, it's frozen frenzy, like they figured out it was frozen frenzy by putting on ESPN And just seeing a huge frozen frenzy sign or highlight whatever. I don't understand the thought behind that I thought that before we got a frozen frenzy we would know seven to ten days prior Get ready. It's common. We got a six day countdown a five day countdown every team in the league playing staggered starts Here we go. So the advertisement of it was just piss boar, but the night never disappoints. It really doesn't I don't know who started it off The devil's the new Jersey Devils. Oh, that's a Brady devil's the floor. No, that that was the next game You know, it was actually a buffalo against Florida and actually Josh don't got us first of the year in that game No, hold on. Oh, sorry. Sorry. I was I'm thinking of money. It was Detroit Jersey was the first game. All right. That was in Detroit Then the Florida Panthers were in Columbus. We'll get into the Columbus Blue Jackets guys and and Rick bonus But did Detroit devil's game was electric on track? Hughes posh posh was just text in the group non stop a sick OT winner Detroit look good I mean an exciting night and was it before or after the game we heard Of the cat and he's I don't think it was until after it was after it was like right after It came out and the next morning is when I saw it right after the game. I think he's done it boys. What a what a deal unreal I was kind of shocked at the number. I'm just shocked at everything the wings are doing right now and not to say it's not Deserve not to say that's not what the market price is. I mean the brinket is earned it. He unbelievable guy off the ice He's so well-liked on 40 goal guy right. He's gotten 40 goals and in the league before he's pretty much last year Yeah, he's pretty much automatic for 30 35 goals and that's what the going rate for goals is I'm just kind of shocked that You're you're getting that locked in early in the season and that's a a main focus for you is extending a guy who I Believe is 29 years old at this point. He turns 29 in December. Okay. Yeah, he's turned it 29 and Yet you like still haven't figured out this Edvinson thing like if you're looking towards the future of the Detroit Red Wings like in You know in four or five years maybe when they're good if they're if they're somehow able to manage their way out of this ugly situation That they're in maybe who knows larkin still around maybe Edmonds in sign is like is The brinket still in his prime and able to do that and should it be a main focus at this point compared to an Up-and-coming defenseman it really seems like they're in the mentality of like the old days of like we're not fucking paying you shit until you prove it And I don't know exactly where that's gonna get you With where they're at right now. What do you guys think? I think that could be I think him Corcoff signing to brinket is kind of getting the ball going for the Detroit Red Wings I think it's him making a presence. I sign the guy Get things going and Edvinson's next. I think they're all in trying to get them done My guess is they want somebody to offer sheet them so they can just match it and get it all done I know I think it till December right you could offer sheet them but From what I've been told and what I'm hearing is that it's their priority to get him done Get him done as soon as possible because I think everybody knows like the more he's sitting out Like the more it takes him time to get going in the in the league So you got to get this done ASAP if I'm showing Horcoff I'm either flying over to his hometown or wherever he is if he's over here having lunch with him You got to get this done you got to get this done ASAP especially which is having signed to brinket So you're saying you're saying have you heard this too with that they're hoping to get an offer sheet so then I just I have not heard I didn't say I didn't say they're hoping I would just imagine that they're like okay Perfect and the deal is already there and they can just sign the dot and get it done as opposed the deal It's just saying fucking sign them for whatever he's asking for yeah What is he asking for do you guys know no idea what you think is reasonable for him to ask for? I bet he's asking for ten million a year. I'll say this for what he's done I would not say he's I don't know where he gets off ask it for ten million a year. What look what's cider? What is cider make? Cider makes gain change. I mean Edvinson has 175 games 60 points. What is La Combs deal 9.25 or 9.5 or Somewhere around there giving that same thing. No, I think if you offered him seven times nine and he's not taking it He's a fucking asshole and I would have went up with that number Okay, yeah, make it even uglier now why not you're telling me that if you he's getting offered that much money after proving what he's Pro like he hasn't he hasn't done what La Combs done La Combs a better player than him At least at least what from what we've seen shut down McDavid playoffs I think that they'll or he signed before that right usually when contract negotiations going on like you hear a number Whether it's from one side or rather we haven't heard anything are they you just heard bridge term long term There, you know, but you're right. Hork him him signing to bring it shows like all right He could do that. They're allowing him to do that so hopefully he gets he gets the job I mean if you're gonna let him sign to bring it then I feel like you're like aren't I'm comfortable with this guy being the full-time GM now To bring it. I had no idea I saw the number right very high yes terms of salary, but then you look 41 last year 39 the year before it's his tenth season He's played 82 games in seven of them, I think wow okay long-jeivity and Really miss games not come wood for the wings fans. Okay. Holy fuck hold on man It's just like holy shit. That's what that's what you get now if you're if you're a 30 40 goal guy So more than anything it was good news the wings head fans have no good news. It was good news All right, we got our guy. He's not leaving after this year Is it more important to sign Edmonds in at seven times nine then to bring it at seven times thirteen? Yes, of course, but you have to get the deal done equally as important okay, no You don't you don't think you need Edvinson more like as a younger thing is like they're not in a winning window now It seems like they're not gonna make playoffs It's like you're not even looking for for this year next year make me like maybe a few years down the road Like it's gonna we're still looking at some time here unless they somehow get the full band like Edvinson and Larkin stays there the whole year And maybe they squeak in are they a sustainable winning team like are they like a Colorado where it's like automatic playoffs And then and then they have the chance of going on a run some people would say oh well They fucking lost out first or second around for how many years since they won it But it's like come on here. We're like we're talking about a cup contender coming into every year So I'm happy to have some studs coming biz and they and they have a goalie coming at some point I okay, so where do you think they are in their rebuild of Larkin is gone and then Edvinson's not there Depends on the return okay, and I don't I do not think Edvinson will be on another. I don't think they're trading them I don't think that or cough literally said we're not trading them. There you go There you go. There you go. Now another another bright spot for Wings fans I know they lost this game. So shadow posh in the devil and I don't want this to take away from from the brinkets deal It's just it's a conversation that has to happen because I think that for some people it is a little bit of the head scratch You're like 13 for seven for a 29 year old or 30 29 December and then Edvinson still sit at home That's a lot of money that could have went to signing this guy who's still at home Yeah, well You guys you guys know of mbn on the red wings Michael Brands egg Nighguard you guys been nice him playing yet Yes, that guy is very nice and he's mbn. It's a great. It's a great knitting What's the guy in the Seahawks who's disgusting J. S and J. S and B and it's like I like that nickname Is it a nickname or is it just his initials? You'd be the judge of that I like that and there's more comment. So Wings the negativity around the Wings Which we've been a part of as everyone has been a part of who talks NHL for a living I think we got to start thinking to print that sign Edvinson will be on the team I think in the next couple weeks. Okay, thanks At the end looking great. Yeah, weeks. I believe. I believe so. I believe so I think he left Sweden and he's like back over here skating with somebody somewhere So he's in he's on the continent that he needs to be on to be playing the Detroit Red Wings Showed out showed out also the devil's one that game posh a nice win It's a mid team That was a middle day. They lost Monday to Ottawa That was a must win for them playing the bottom feeder Detroit Red Wings Yeah, it's just like I'm like am I doing this because I can't stand posh. Maybe it's just a mid team This guy I just had busy said I'm so sick of posh to talk about this team It's like yeah, not a bad team not a great team It's a mid it's a middle of the road NHL hockey team. Okay. I got a question about the uh to brink at contract and you see everything online people Not complaining, but like questioning how much money. Why is hockey the only sport where people like question How much money guys make like no way they don't that's not the only sport. I think that's maybe what's hitting your algorithm Okay, I'll go I've never seen anybody like Up in arms about an NBA signing or a NFL signing like it's always like. Oh, okay. Nice. Yeah. Oh, they got him Like and like nf NHL places what they do have a soft cap Who does NBA? I believe it has a soft cap. Oh, they did NBA money I feel like I see people question contracts a lot. I think they're like what now granted they play like 60 games of the 290 million some of them, but And NHL the new the new deals we're seeing it is going to be a little bit of like holy shit It's more like sticker shock. It is because if I so if I said you to break it Just got a seven year deal. What would you have guessed you would assign for I probably would again nine or 10 Yeah, like what Adrian Kemp had got Yeah Talk about a mid hockey team Kings they might be less than mid, but What else we got to move on for I'm so hot and we have to move on and we got to move on to to Florida Who's just been kind of inconsistent and then they go into Columbus and that's where you need to be going right now if your team needs a W And boom boom boom Brady Kitchock so cool question auto a centers fans of the loving life as their team looks phenomenal and Brady hadn't scored And he gets a hactorick all assisted prize brother that that's one of the the sicker things I've ever seen that is unreal I think Matthew ended up with five assists Brady had another assist he had four points Matthew has five points and The Panthers they looked they looked unstoppable But the news of the night after that was bones And this press conference. He's man better the headline hog. I believe he said like this if this doesn't embarrass some I don't know what will and right away our group chat was popping. It's like bones. I Don't think you could keep doing this man. No how many bullets can do you have how many times is he had one of these press conferences after these games Like six it's you have one at the end of the year get the guys ready to come in shape be ready for training camp You have one during training camp saying some guys are out of shape. Don't want to be there or whatever. They trade they trade a guy out And that like you throw a stinker out there you have a bad game You knew Florida was gonna come with a good game. They haven't been playing the best that everybody thought they could get to They have a stinker. You're gonna have those row to 84 game thing and I'm all for a coach calling the team out Do it in the locker room go into the guy. You don't need the media to Imagine how many times I didn't talk about that. Oh, yeah, if that's what we're getting imagine what's going on in the locker room He's got the banana clip. Hey, I'll say like Calgary Chicago some of these teams that are not good teams and are very bad teams van Although, you know, they've had some exciting games on the watch. There's no place No place that that I'd want to be less than Columbus right now. It seems miserable it's see and and that is not a shot at like the organization or the fan to the rink. It's just boys, they're just a roster's flawed Their coach hates their guts He tells the fans constantly how much he hates their guts and every day walking in that room must just be the walk of death I did it in Edmonton boys. I did it in minus 40 degree weather walking interacts all here comes another loss And they're doing it in Columbus and their coaches carving them constantly. So I don't know what they do. Yeah Okay, so going back to last year at the end of the season. I guess like I know like that I think the last like whatever five eight games were we're not good. Maybe it was a little bit longer than that But you can't forget when he took over they went on a run where they won like 11 or 12 in a row So like they battled for him to get to help get them back into like playoff contention And I know they missed and they fizzled out, but I mean, after you go on a run like that, man I would imagine you're you're pretty gash you're putting everything you can into it and keep in mind like the personnel That's the one thing that I think is being lost here is like if you look at their team on paper They're not I don't think they're a playoff team. I don't think any of us do so you'd have to play way beyond expectations Everything would have to go according to plan and write and and you'd have to have all this positive juju. Well I probably wouldn't have handled the end of that season I know he's probably trying to light a spark out of these guys off So they go in Rocky Balboa into the offseason and have the training offseason of their life and they all come back and swinging Well, buddy, you come back and not only in the midst of the summer was their captain trying to get out of there Then there's this weird like he nixed the nixed the deal after they had one in place He's got to kind of come back kind of like larkin to save face with them after nixing it It's his head really in the game there or is he looking to greener pastures and then your top forward Is getting asked like do you like playing hockey and do you want to play hockey in Columbus and he says I like playing hockey and And your other top four wasn't signed Yeah, that's in fan tillies. So like it was a bit of a shit show off the ice Then you get the comments like you said about the in like not in shape and training camp. So like You could keep trying to squeeze the nickel so tight the bivirals shit But if it's just not a good enough group and on top of that They haven't even been able to gain momentum from a play perspective because I think they had a five day gap in between games Where everybody else is playing every other night. So they're getting their game leg. So I don't know how many more bullets that bones has left and obviously if there's a guy who knows a locker room and knows what needs to be said and done It's him I just don't know if he keeps doing it. He's gonna get the results that he wants with this group and I think that if this continues boys I think Werenzki's gone and I think he's gonna be a Toronto mate believe that that's the thing like you don't laugh like don't laugh at me like that I wasn't laughing when you said that. It's that you just like that Toronto mate but but I think he ends up in Utah this year I could see him gone. I could see him gone with the deadline right now unless he had no desire Whatsoever to play in Dallas and live in Texas he could right now be like fuck Why don't know what had I mixed that what I don't know, man No state tax hell of a team Fuck great weather. We're getting called up by bones every day. You would think bones have tied up or something Maybe they maybe bones is doing this so he asks out so they can get more draft picks and tank They out they they were they lost that game to go to like two and three they win that game there above 500 You would think he'd go away and be like we didn't have it like you might have to start going full positivity When he did when he came in I know I know and end in the season He could have been like want to run. We had we ran out of gas. We're gonna be better He's just going Any chill cold style or Brooks or pushing the face over and over verbally and and now it's like guys They don't have much there. I bones. There's not let's try to get this group together and have a little fun Because I know everyone's just waiting to see my press conference and guys are just shaking their head here We go again tomorrow another bags game and boys. They're two and three. It's yeah, we're five games in here We've had he's called out the team three fucking times now Like every it's happened more than half the amount of games. So I mean, I don't know man like I think maybe maybe some meditation some yoga. Maybe we get him on and get his side of things But boys, I can't see where Rensky there till the end of the year. No, no, not if it keeps up like this. We don't Well, I also want to bring up a Carolina Washington from frozen frenzy Caroline is now one six in a row. They look incredible some tough news man Jordan's stall A calf tear or something like that. He's out like two months. It happened in warm up Like I don't even on not on the ice either I think like warming up for the game off ice. I wonder if it was soccer or one of those injuries we've seen from From sewer ball. I hope not. I'm just kind of speculating there But that sucks and then Taylor Hall got hurt I don't even has there been a timeline on himgy Because I think it's just said it didn't look. I think Brynmore said it doesn't look good Yeah, it would that's either like ribs or shoulder. That was a heavy hit I don't want to along the boards right on the bench. I think so and then I saw Nadoa Bradley Nadoa got called up. He was really good at main So we'll see if he can light it up no timeline yet for for Hall But Carolina looks they look phenomenal again and interestingly enough in that game Ryan Leonard who every time I've watched Washington looks sick Like a reason he was signed to that huge deal He got benched after He got took a dumb penalty Spectre cough scored to make it three two with like seven minutes to go in the third Spectre coughs second. I think he might have six goals already. He's positive. Yeah, he's but Leonard didn't play another shift. Carberry talked about it after he's like he he actually mentioned he put he did some great things out there He played well, but like we're not scaling with stupid penalties like that that point again kind of like the little old school there right like all right buddy Like you're a young player. You're a hell, but he also he also said the good things that he did. Yes. Yes. Yeah, you get you got to send them to the miners like Redding you got especially now with like the younger players you got to do some positive stuff and then some and I'm sure it like that group in in Washington You know obviously they got some older guys If you're taking stupid penalties are making stupid plays to hurt your team The guys are going to call you out too So I'm sure he's getting it You know in a good way from his players like hey stay in there and next time don't take that penalty and then he hears it from the coach a little a bit too, but those are teaching moments. It's not like he's getting up at the pony. You can be like, can't apply him. This guy stinks. He's taking penalties. He's costing our team games. Like you got to learn, you got to learn how these guys, you know, work and the way that these young guys do it is some positivity and some criticism. Well, one, if there's one young guy who I feel can take that type of thing, it's Ryan Leonard. Two, if there's one team that can afford to sit a young guy to learn his lesson, it's them because they are stocked with guys up front. Like if they healthy scratch them for a game, they wouldn't even notice. Like not, not in like a negative way towards him, but they just have their stock right now. I mean, Alex talks about buzzing the way that he is. Like Wilson's flying around. I was scored. Yeah. They got, they, yeah, Kairu's kind of getting going a little bit. Have you guys noticed a bit of the inconsistency with Kairu? No, but I've seen some capital's fans mention, maybe like I see why St. Louis Blues fans were frustrated by him. I was more surprised to see it was the same tweet I was reading. I think he was average and like 10 minutes of game. And I know he played more Wednesday night. I think he played around 15, 16 minutes and scored. But yeah, I mean, maybe a little bit of an outside perimeter player is supposed to car bury in what he wants with how big that team is like playing on the inside. The speed is so good that it's like if you can just get him a little more physically involved, I think Danny really pops off and car bury kind of like can picture this happening. But I was surprised to see he was playing that little early on in the few games leading up. It's also too. You're going to a new team. You see it with Brady. You see, I mean, him, boom, Jenner, Kairu, like guys on new teams, you're going to not often you come in right away. And it just clicks like you used to play in a certain type of way. You used to, you know, playing with certain players like he's playing with new players guys he's never played with. It's getting used to guys tendencies and stuff like that. So I think if you're on a new team, you got to give if you're the fan base, new player comes in, you got to give them a five to 10 game grace period where they get to feel it out. And like you said, if you don't like the bones, if he's only playing 10 minutes and then he gets rewarded with the 15 minutes is because last game I saw him. He was getting to the middle of the ice. He was going to the net. He was making plays inside the blue line. Like, you know, when you're kind of just perimeter and your team is set up like Washington is, Carberry's not going to reward you with minutes on the ice. Also, the watching talk, I'm like, man, I wonder if there's any Buffalo regret there. Like he looks unreal. And I know he's a little bit older, but he still is so fast. That no look shot. I think it was his first goal coming down the off wing. He's looking. He's looking over. And I do love now. Is it new? Where they're immediately showing how fast the shot was when it goes in the net. Right? Is it went in? It was 88 miles an hour and dude, it was just a quick snapshot. I'm like, he gave it the bar golf and training camp where he was like, he started looking past and it was off this thick and no time. And even the second one, he scored was a beauty. Yeah, it was. And he missed the wide open net of empty netter for the hat trick with the goalie pulled loser loser. But yeah, Washington looks good. Lane Hudson. He's the game against Buffalo frozen frenzy and last night and Cole Hudson, those two are unreal. They are. And they're so different too. It's crazy. Like their brothers and have different they play, but Lane Hudson, like that play Tuesday night against Buffalo. Slavkowski passed it across the coffee. He'll be scored a sick one time goal. It was so smart of Hudson to let it go. Like maybe it doesn't look like much. And obviously he knows coffee fields over there. But when you really look at it, like it was right on his tape and he let's it go right by coffee. Why is that one pass? But Buffalo who've had, you know, just a so, so start. I was thinking like, God, they could have just, like, Tuck wanted to resign there. We all heard. And now he's in Washington. But what else from Tuesday night? Oh, I was going to go ahead, but so Cole Hudson, he ends like, I know you're the OG, but this guy is trying to dethrone you as the song master. He's the new song master. I said, he's not saying it. He's not saying it. Well, you better start. Yeah. I sent him the crown. I mean, especially now, like the cameras are so good. They're all right there. Like he's, he's on prime time majority of the night. So yeah, it's all his and he's great at it. He's absolutely. It's wager that that kid had, did you see the mic that they had him mic'd up against Montreal? Him and Lane just seemed so much different. Like he's barking the whole game. And like, even before they're taking a pitch, he's like, Hey, I'm mic'd up. And Lane just like, sits there just ready to go play the game. He just seems like he has that different mentality where it's the fine line between cocky and conference where he's just like, I know I'm the shit. I'm going to play like I'm the shit. And he does it every night. And he's talking to go with even cocky. You could go with cocky. Is that a younger brother quality? I think that's just like, I've been the best player on every team I've been on since I was four. Well, Lane could say the same. When we did the chick, let's be with him. We did the chick, let's you with them. And he said, walking into the ring every day with swagger. It's almost like a thing that he turns on. Like he said, he actually said it's really, really important for him to play with like this cocky aura because he plays way better with it. And he's the only guy you probably have to have that, right? Yeah. Yeah, I can't wait to see those negotiations go down. Yeah, while she gets more than anyone, Lane makes considering what Lane makes is like all right. Just another Montreal contract that looks incredible. But frozen frenzy, back frozen frenzy. The brews are good. Yeah, really good. And maybe, maybe the sharks aren't what we thought they'd be early in the year. And they got some serious talent there. But the brews too, they like, it might be Datsuke. He meant it might be Datsuke. He might have called right. I mean, all he does is say a good at golf. He is. He stinks at golf. No, friends. You stink. All you do is tell me how good you are. But you did say that that Fraser meant and was like, Pavel, Datsuke, and he looks incredible. And they worked over the, they worked over the sharks. And Zodorov is the door of top three toughest guys in the NHL. But nobody reads back. Apparently. He'd beat him with a newspaper. Yeah, he does. This one's for sure is punching him. You know, C. Darnell gets thrown around like that. I don't know if he's top three toughest, but he's definitely top three strongest. Yeah. Like if you're a ragdolling guy and you know, you can just grab someone like this, you were fighting guys. No offense way bigger, way stronger than you. And like to have that for him to just know, hey, if anything goes wrong, I can just grab one and hold on. Like you can fight anyone and he's willing to do it, man, I respect his game so much. Well, Morgan's been awesome too. They got him from the Rangers this summer. I think that was a trade that a lot of Bruins fans rip, but the guy just doesn't make mistakes. I think he's, he's been awesome on that right side. A bit of an upgrade over Andrew Peek from last year. Yeah. His, his, he scored his first goal, which is one of those goals that's the best. He just cleared the puck out of the zone with the goalie pole didn't happen to go in. And then McAvoy gets a goal in his first game back to you. Love to see that for him. I had no idea that last year, the amount of points McAvoy had, I think it was 61 points was the most points by a Bruins defense since Ray Boer, 30 years prior. Yeah, that's crazy. Really. Z never had. I think crew, crew came close. I'm not mistaken. But I was a, wow, I would say Zadano had the most goals as the defenseman since he had a 20 goal year once, I believe. Yeah, I guess he wasn't really like a huge point guy. He'd get 50. Yeah, a lot of those years, I put a swarney, what I got 60, but yeah, I mean, the, the Bru, I don't know. You also had Patrice Bergeron leading their team and scoring at like 70 points all those years. True. They were still nasty, but they just weren't the team that had a lot of, a lot of point guys. Charles is the last time a Bruins player got over 100 points. I guess pasta, right? Pasta. Pasta does it every year, but it's like pasta at 100. Next guy, 55, 60 points, everything. It's crazy. Yeah, it's crazy. So Paturka's looked awesome too. I think he's been added. Yeah, smart move for them. Yeah, for sure. Why do I see his name being thrown out there for so many trades then? Oh, Paturka. No, he just didn't. No, no, I know, but like the flipping him again. Yeah, I'll fuck off him in Zaka. That's all I see. That might be posh. That might be posh. I see, I see Zaka everywhere. They don't want to sign and they want to cause Zaka's going to sign a deal that we're all going to be like, whoa, 13. What the fuck? Yeah, but there could be a team that massively overpays for him at the deadline, only a four mil cap hit. Like teams need centers. He can play center. He can play left wing, play up the lineup. They could get a handful of prospects for him at the deadline, which would be great. I would. Yeah, I would put Boston up there with the way that they've handled their free age and signings and my outside of Lynn home, maybe who I don't know if he's been impressing you a little bit more. Like I think a lot of people call carved as a door of deal. I think we're all shocked when they paid the. Tanner Geno. They pay. No, Geno's been great for them. It's been awesome. He's assistant captain. He's getting paid two million bucks a year. No, he makes like four and a half. Is it? Yeah, he signed that four and a half deal. But a pastorling. He's a barooons guy. 3.5 he's even got a couple points to 3.4 is his cap it. Okay. No bad. Yeah, which is nothing now, but no man The Bruins are a thing man. I thought I thought they were gonna be we say it every year Yeah, Swainman's been incredible too. Yeah, that's that that's the catalyst that we should have mentioned right away Barringer's the other night the crackin and the flyers whoo That is a hot ticket in town, man. Oh boy flyers fans are losing their mind there and we keep saying it at some point They got to get a w they got to do something here. No, they don't see Zegra scored Zegra's made it two to two in that game They still lost they were down to nothing And then the rumor or the news comes out That the front office is unhappy with Kineckney and it's like oh my god You have all this disaster on ice product going on and then you have rumors flying around about like them Not wanting Kineckney anymore. He signed to a huge deal for I think six more years. He's got Or right around that and it's like this place isn't is a dumpster fire But you know what is everyone says online talks just gonna cause friends in the media and pump his tires to go ahead go ahead I haven't talked to him. I think I'm blocked at this point Well, I am going Adam Tony escargo are going over game plans and who should be playing what minutes here what minutes there guys I would just say this before the season did anyone think that this was a playoff team. No, I think they'd have a win by now They're fans. They're fans. Yeah false hope last year was all false hope They need anything I thought that there would be a bottom five team this year. Yes, that was more likely than playoffs These guys. I don't know what these fans were expecting. They got no no center iceman They made sure I was going to do what he did last year. I didn't think so You had a bad he hasn't been bad either and and and and apparently now the fucking D med have been fucking true and rougiets All all all in between periods. They're too horny all the They've scored ten goals in eight games. They're leading scorer has three points. They're goal differential is minus 21 one eight games I think I got the man. I got him getting in late season run That I maybe you know, maybe I take back my Columbus That's the last place I want to be right now and then I switch it over to the flyers. Yeah, that's just and that and those fans Columbus fans are like positive. They're like and they've been going through this year after year flyers fans They want people's head on a steak. I think they were born them when they were coming out onto the ice for warm-ups Like come on and then I think that they was was it a who they just sign who they just sign No, it was Leo, but they didn't get him And then go Jay, but they didn't get him either he want to know Michael Bunting. They just Bunting was on the first power play in practice. So people are snowing about that Can't do anything right there. Oh, man right before we started the show Colby texted a little theory in our group chat that Mitch cough could be traded to the Edmonton Oilers. What were your thoughts behind that? I mean, oh guy came to throw a football through a hole four feet in front of them Not wearing about meech cough on the flyers the flyers need to trade everyone that they can for all these draft picks or prospects and Completely rip it down and start over But I think we've said this since the show started Yeah, I would personally like there's obviously a ton of rumors out there going around What's your favorite one fun to see the meltdown if they traded meech God for like a third-rounder I would personally future considerations. I Would personally do it. I would even have them throw in like a bus If you were a GM of a team Would you trade a first-rounder for the Meech Cobb man? If you're silly though and you trade him to a good team where he's surrounded by good And you have to pack him to pop off. Oh, then they're burning down the building. Oh, I burn it all down It's it meets up went to another team and was unreal that would that would be it Like I don't know if there'd be a fan at the games anymore Because mech was their guy world. It's it's an Anaheim. He's playing on on cutter. Go chase line For for for a late second It was already had Yakopov. We don't need mech cough. True. You wouldn't be okay Wait if if if they were saying give us a late first-rounder you wouldn't trade for mech Cobb No You know fast our team is lost 30 pounds. I mean we seen we seen the oilers play hockey there so for weight That guy's keep you guys stick that he's keeping up with that team You guys know the only team who hasn't lost the regulation yet Edmonton. Oh, you believe it. No. Can you believe it, Piz? Yeah, I think you questioned him this year Still early still early, but and and let me tell you frozen frenzy night I was like, oh boys. This is like I had to be up early Wednesday, but you know the late start and The first period it's like nothing. I mean mcdavid is flying around Unbelievable mock-ten he has three points in the first period Bouchard has another two points and once again no Savoy No Hyman no newton Hopkins Just imagine what to do with the first line look at the first line. That's it. So if we're missing three great forwards And we have we have stuff coming on. This is a great day for me my team hasn't lost in regulation and we have basically the most respected man and hockey coming on Bob Stoffer, so I wanted to get into something else about frozen pants. Okay, the Rangers We were down in the dumps for all the Rangers fans out there who we love business now boys with the owner's son And and then they loose your sturkin. They're not slowing down and the frontier He has seven goals already on business. You said it on the on the on the group chat He's it was those two empty netters. Oh, baby, but like it doesn't matter now Hey, you finished the year with 36 goals. Nobody's talking about the first two being empty netters the confidence is there I'm on the stat sheet and I will maybe do a little posh here. I looked it up His shooting percentage right now. I think it's 37%. That's a standable. That's that's not exactly sustainable Whereas Dora Feeev who usually shoots around 16% he's at like four So it's almost fine that the frontiers is gonna come down But you know the sphere is he's gonna come back up. It is weird though that he's he's struggled the way he has I thought he was kind of gonna light it up this year, but the Rangers. There's no quit there no quit at all and What's the goal? He's named great. How do you say granted? I I get a rank got random. I can't say it I he's three and one like how happy are they to have a guy? They put him on waivers this year, right? Yep, or is that the other kid? Yeah, happy to have his own waivers. Yeah, so that I mean he's three and one if they can String some games together get him feeling good about I just like the way that they're playing like You know, Sully's a defensive-minded coach, but it seems like they're doing it the right way this year They're not like like last year was just like slow and defensive. They're playing fast and defensive this year They they're doing a really good job like of just getting in transition moving pucks out of their zone I like the way they've looked and if they can continue to get goal-tending from Garand they're gonna be all right that Albert Smith who's playing as an 18-year-old just draft at this summer He doesn't have a point, but he like that's just you're bringing in like a guy a young guy who could skate and Adam Fox I'm a Bouchard guy, right? And Bouchard if he doesn't win the Norris this year is a disgrace to the entire sport But Adam Fox is unreal. He's unreal and you saw all the injuries that he's had to deal with so him being back Yeah, like I maybe maybe maybe this continues they play the devils tonight So that would be that that's a must watch for all like I get to just Rude on the the Rangers and just text pops to every goal the Rangers score. Hopefully. I think this podcast has made more Rangers fans in the Rangers organization themselves just from letting posh again on the mic and that's another one Patterson Patterson They are uh, it's a different team. It's different team Fox has got a little bit of bush in them where you know Sometimes it looks like they're not like trying their hardest I guess like because they're not flying around like I could see how fans don't appreciate that, but they just get it done man. Hey, I actually The skill set I I sense that um while sometimes you know fans get on Bouchard even oilers fans because a couple of his famous pizzas and stuff Rangers fans are obsessed with Fox. I never hear Rangers fans dog in him and I think they're all well aware That when he's playing like we got a chance to win. He's that good and he looks that way because he's not very fast Yeah, he's so smart and his head fakes in the shoulder fakes so ridiculous also I think years ago we mentioned on the pod If a puck is shot out to his point in the air he knocks it down nine out of 10 times. Yeah, I just you can't you can't flip flip a puck by that guy I think he won a Norris pretty early in his career too. I think that that gives you a little bit longer. Yeah true Just like knowing that you have player who can win the Norris. And I believe he's only making nine million. So you kind of put up with the injuries and the off years, especially while the team's going through him. And here you are. I mean, they're right back in the mix now. And yeah, they're playing awesome. I'm, that's probably the. I would probably say I'm the most surprised about them having such a good start. - I was gonna ask you. - I was gonna ask you not to put you on the spot of your kind of your biggest surprise through seven, eight games. - New York Rangers. They're playing hockey. I think they beat Tampa two times a home. I don't think they've lost on home ice so far, especially the way that last year went with their home ice. Yes, they're the most surprised. And outside of Doraphia, I would have said, like, who did they get that's gonna make them better? - How do you, is it Cartier? What's that? How do you say that kid's name? He's good. - Cartier, Cartier. - It's like the bracelets. - He's awesome. - Yeah. - He's awesome. - And then Keith, I'll go to you. My surprise so far is Winnipeg. - Yeah. - Yeah, and they put it on Minnesota the other night. Her fetty looks unreal. - Good for him. - Kyle Connor scored a goal in that game that maybe it was just horrendous, defensive zone coverage, but he still looked unbelievable doing these. He's doing spin-around with tight turns like at the top of the circle. Nobody near him, where's the winger? Where is the winger for the wild? - He was at the blue. - Then he buries it. So Winnipeg, they've just listened to all the bullshit that he's like I said. - Yeah, they have a lot of good storylines right now. - Yeah. - And they're keeping it positive, unlike all of them. - And now, you know, the hella buck thing, the website, the hella box tracker. How much money is losing every day? - That gave me fucking anxiety looking at that thing. - No shit. - For those of you who don't know what's talking about, there's a running tab of like it just counts it by the second of how much money he's losing by sitting at home. And we pull it up live on, like, live as we're going right now to show what it's at. It's got to be close to a million bucks now. - In Biz was complaining about the 300 he got fined in the coast. - Yeah, 150, but I hear ya. - Well. - Well, with inflation, it's 300 now. - While he's trying to pull that up, my two surprises, and it kind of both it goes into your guys' pick. Mine is La Frenier and Cole Perfetti. I think in the beginning of the year, we said, if these teams are gonna do anything, these guys have to have pop off years. They're both drafted the same year. The same year is byfield as well. But this is their time, man. And I reached out to Scott Arneal, their coach, and he just said, I think he's getting used to playing with his linemates. He's getting used to playing with shifly and Connor, like just getting to know their habits, the way they want pox and he's taking advantage of it. And I think, oh, here we go. Oh, man, Biz. - 642 grand already. - 650 Gs, boys. That's a lot of money. - 38,000 a day. 38K. - Do you think that there could be hella buck like saying to his agent? And now, no, by the way, maybe his agent was like, hey, just go play and hella buck didn't want to. Maybe the agent said, hey, don't play, don't show up. But no matter what, how did they do this without, no, like there should have been like, hey, you're going to get traded to this team or this team. It's going to happen, like, unless they thought that they were sure of it, now it hasn't happened. It's been kind of fumble-fucked here. - Oh, they can't spare this thing. - So give it good advice all the time. Talk to Klingberg. - True, but it's just, like, how does this happen? - Some of them, they're fucking egos getting the way too. They forget it's about their client, not them. - And we're not even saying if we know for sure. I just thought of it. - Well, I'm not saying it was his decision, but if I'm his agent, I'm saying you go your team, collect your money and it'll figure itself out. Like, look what Larkin's doing. That's the path. He took it on the chin. And now it's like, I would say at this point, I don't think there's much booing going on. It's kind of went away. There might be a little bit of it. - Oh, to Larkin, yeah. - Couple of turban t-shirts in the crowd, but that's about it. - Yeah, like you mentioned, oh, yeah. And it's like a cool prophetic and laughing year. Great, great season so far. Confidence is clicking at an all time. And also if you're like a young guy who's kind of been up and down and never really known like, hey, man, you're in that spot and that's your spot. Playing with the confidence that you belong, that's another thing too. Like, not gonna talk and go get put up there for three, four games. And then things then go great for a game. You're coming off. It's like, to have that confidence to be like, no, I belong here. And yeah, if I have an off night, I'm still gonna be there the next day on that top line. It's a pretty comforting feeling. And of course, playing with those two guys who are just, I mean, Shiteface coming off a hundred point season. The con man's, I mean, the gingerbread cookie's unbelievable. - Yeah, I think it was Shane Nightie during the broadcast said that they skate, the hues skate with Connor in the summer. And they're trying to mimic the way that Connor shoots the puck. - Oh, he whips it. - It's insane to his release. - Yeah, that's what it's like. - But Dard back in the lineup, look pretty good. I think he got an assist. The thing. - Yeah, beautiful. - So one touch, a little one touch apple. - That frondell's gonna be sick. - He's putting up some numbers. - He's a moose. He could skate that looks like it's gonna be a pretty special draft pick for them. And I guess another surprise. The No Watch Kings, Seattle. - They're five weeks. - They'll quickly go back to that Chicago Pittsburgh game, though. - Yes, yes, go ahead. - Sid had two. They pulled their goalie. And I was just so happy to be watching the end of that game. And Sid kind of scooped the puck on his backhand. And he just like threw it to the other side of the ice. It must have went over three different black hawks, guys. And landed right, I believe on LeTang or somebody's tape. And he ends. I think you texted a group chat right ago. You see, you see that backhand sauce? It wasn't really a sauce. It was one of those things where you're like, how the fuck did he just do that? - He's the only guy who that can do it 'cause of his blade, the way that doesn't have the, you know, the big hook like everybody. That was one of the most, and I was just praying that they ended up scoring on that. Because it would have been like, "Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah." But like, still when you appreciate the game and see little things like that, especially when Sid's still doing it, and he's just still so good. - Yeah. - He's a joke. And we didn't even mention. - He's dirty of the bloody blues pussy. - That guy. - The tilt. The Nate dog is, more I tie. More I tie Nate. Who more? - This one. More. More I tie Nate. This one went a little different. This one went a little different because he fought a Finnish lunatic who caught him with a bomb, right. And the dog was bleeding. The dog giving that interview though, saying the guy seemed to like it. Maybe I'll do it a couple more times. Fedner might be like, "Nah, nah, nah." He goes, "Yeah, I've got a couple this year. I think I'm done." And then in his head during the interview, he's like, "Well, the guy's like it. I might want to do it more." I think he's in that sicko mode right now, Biz. Like, he is out for blood this year. - He was going it. He wanted that, right? He kind of went ahead. - So there's a little bit of a history, yeah. - There's some history with him and hence. And I didn't know hints through hammers like that. Hints throw in hand. - Finnish guys are tough as shit. - Yeah, they are. They like their vodka. They like their head on music. And he says he does a little bit of like not martial arts, but like MMA style fighting in the summer. But he said it's more for the training aspect of it. That's Rupé saying that. And as far as Nate, I guess Nate's a real huge UFC guy. And he, I kept getting tagged in the trainer of the Muay Thai trainers videos. He, I think Nate's all in. He went from Scuba's Steve to Jean-Claude Van Dam over the summer time. And here we are where he's in his blood sport era. - He had another quote recently about, they were asking about sleep. And then something about sleeping with your socks on. I got to get, I got to go back and look at it. - He's out of his wash. Something that's brilliant. - And then he said like, yeah, actually like, if I'm doing to do something the real right way or something, I would actually wake up at 3 a.m. And then he like stopped himself. He's like, no, I'm not going to go into that. So I don't know what to do. - He's like, business is going to run with this. I better shut up. - He's like, I'm fucking with my socks on now. I refuse to take my socks off when I fuck. - What were you saying to my pants? - I pulled my dick through my boxer hole. I don't get my boxing off my bang. - How did you, how did you bring up hair replacement surgery in Turkey with Manson on the interview? - Because they were like, they said like, oh, Manson's ready. And then they never threw it to the interview and they're in our ear. And then eventually he came on camera and they got the end of, when just when they put them on you could see he kind of adjusted his hat and he had his hat on, which is right after warm up. So I'm like, oh, I'm like, he had to put his hat on. And he's like, yeah, I'm getting a little bit thin up top on the top. And I said, oh, fuck, I said we're going to have to send you to Turkey like Brad Marshall with that five head of his and get you that procedure. So you're looking good. - Marshall's injured and you're just throwing out nooks at him. - Oh, buddy, oh yeah, when I got my fucking next snap by the Irish travelers, he was the first one to pounce. - He was there. - He was there, right? - He was one of them. - It was one of them. - What do you mean? That guy's rode my obituary a few times, Brad Marshall. What do you, he's carving out the tombstone. We do. So we're going to get back to a little bit but a few more of the frozen frenzy games. We got a special guest. I have to take a piss as we bring him in right now. I got a, I got no, you're just afraid of him. You're just afraid of a little bit right now. You may complain to me when I talk about the oilers, okay? And you may be like, when it starts on about the oilers, I press the fast forward button, but we'll bring it on a guy. We're bringing on a guy right now that even if you don't like the oilers, it's impossible not to love him. Don't be stoff. Show me my guy. Shadow Pink Whitney. We're going to talk about them quick. Pinkies up football season, college and pro NHL's dripping NBA is going to be around soon. It's Pink Whitney season. Every season doesn't matter what temperature it is outside. Doesn't matter where you live. Although we really got to get back in Canada. Shadow Pink Whitney. Shadow the nips. Shadow the big bottle. Shadow the Mickey and we have, we have every size available. And if you want to just warm up. If you're playing golf, if you're playing a fall golf round, you need to warm up a little bit. Boom, Pink Whitney. That's how I do it. Pinkies up. Shadow Pink Whitney. We love them and we love you if you drink it. Thank you so much. Pinkies up. We got to talk Reese's right now. As I mentioned at the beginning of the show, Halloween season right now go, go get your Halloween candy for everyone, preferably the big ones. But if not, just the singular Reese's peanut butter cups, that will be the one that gets eaten up and taken up first in your house. I'm telling you, every kid goes through the bucket and boom, they find Reese's. That's what they take and all of a sudden you got to restock even more. So triple quadruple up on the Reese's buys and just get them in there in your big, like pumpkin plastic thing that the kids grab the candy out of. And that's what it's all about. It's Reese's. It's Halloween. And it doesn't even matter Christmas. You get the Reese's that are shaped like Christmas trees every season, every holiday. It's Reese's. So we love them and we appreciate them being part of our show. I'm going to go have one right now. There he is. Look at that background stuff. Is that working for you or what? That's his house. Holy shit. Jesus. Well, last time I think we were in your room and you had the drawers open and now you're just in Euler'sville with like Babcock in town. And God damn is this team. Look good, Bob. This is the Hall of Fame room Ryan, as you know, here at Rogers Place. Yeah, I'm in there. Yeah, I'm going to throw this your way. The next time we do one from my condo next to the arena, my main man, Jack Hudson from Prime Sports is going to hook me up with a Ryan Whitney Euler's jersey and a Ryan Whitney Euler's photo. And, you know, we're going to pre-endery because pre-endery players never more vulnerable than when they get hurt. We know that. And it obviously hugely impacted your career, but you have more fans in the oil country than most people realize. Certainly more fans in the oil country than business has in Toronto. Oh, oh, God, yeah. Oh, God, yeah. Stuff. I've been to Witt's house. He's got a little shrine of you at his house. Why do you not return the favor? He is. He just said he is. I know, but he should already have it. Well, like, like, yeah, it's like, is it bad that I don't have any pictures of my wife and kids in my condo, but I got a picture of it, like, seriously, is that, is that a bad thing? No. No, bleed blue. There you go. And he was, you know what? And I met what I said, and I was very platter that you read the text, Ryan, you were smart defense and smart defense, but let the puck, I mean, keep you played over what, 1100 games in the NHL because you can move the puck. And the puck does the work for the best defenseman, right? That's, everybody knows it and there's a subtly to how some defenseman play. And, you know, Ryan was a guy who you had to have an appreciation for his game, but he got the puck up the ice. He made a place. And that's what Bouchard does. And that's why I've always been sort of in the pro Bouchard camp since day one. And now it's sort of come to fruition that he's amongst the elite players elite. So, yeah, we're having some fun with it. Did you guys talk? What was it? The Irish travelers? Yeah, they beat up biz a few years back. Yeah. I went on the Bobby Sands diet, by the way, for those of you that I was going to say, I was just going to say, you look unbelievable. Your hair looks great. Like, how much weight have you lost as of this morning? And we just went on a nine day road trip, free games. That's hard. That's hard. The beauty is when you do 12 to 14,000 steps in the morning, you can still have a couple at night. You know what I'm saying? And I'm from that generation, you know, you would obviously know Craig Lupel, Ryan. We didn't get cheated any at bats back in the 80s if you know what I'm saying. So I still had a couple, but I'm down about 51 to 52 pounds. Bucking a stuff, couple of clicks, everybody and real, and this is one of your wives. This is one of those hockey boys. Everything's coming up, Edmonds. Your viewers know that the Bobby Sands diet, I still let line from Dennis Miller, Bobby Sands was in the IRA, ended at a hunger strike, and unfortunately passed away. So that's the sort of line on the bot. But I wanted to tie it in to pay homage to the Irish travelers. You took care of those guys, biz. That was some of your friends. The whole I didn't. You defended yourself with on real good. I still can't turn my neck. I got to hit up the tie Ruben Tugs back in Scottsdale to fix that up. I've been traveling all these flights here. But this team, man, I mean, outside of that game, one, they've been buzzing. It's been, it's been fun to watch and make David. I think he's on pace right now for what is it 280 points? Is there a possibility that this guy beats Wayne Gretzky's record of the single season points? No. Okay. He's the most advanced player that's ever lived. And if you put him back in when Wayne played with all due respect, the Wayne, because I've actually had, I know you've had this, like, there's no bigger fan of yours, biz than Wayne, just, you know, I love Wayne. Okay. He loves you. And I've had this conversation with Wayne in it. I'm like, so if you took back David speed and talent skill and took that back in a 19, you know, 82, 83, 300 points season without the yellow, not a chance. He could have done that. Absolutely. But he's, we're watching the most advanced player that's ever lived. We've never seen a guy this fast, this skilled, nice. He's happy. He's had a great. He does look happy. Like he's, you know, let's, you gotta give, hey, players of the first to know, it's a player's league, Josh Allen played a factor in who got hard and Buffalo's head coach. You guys know the story now with Connor and Leon and Zach Hyman and they wanted Babs and Mike Babcock is, he's having fun. And I don't know what the winners are yet because of the injuries, but they're off to a pretty good start. Fucking right. And stuff. So we kind of wondered, Levi, I saw him in Northeastern and it was like, this kid's going to be an NHL goalie. How good is he going to be? I'm not sure. And then things don't work out in Buffalo and he's traded. I think for Florida and the Ryan Hart deal and he gets another chance. And he looks phenomenal. I mean, LA, I don't know if there was a ton of high danger scoring chances for LA in that game, but they had 43 shots or whatever it was. And the kid's attitude is to what me seems like it's infectious. He's, he's very, very grateful for the chance he has right now. And he seems to be dialed in, no? So look at you guys going down the advanced analytics. I know when people think of shows out there right now, they think of spit and check, let's say the advanced analytics. Thank you. So it was a cautious fault. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to, I'm going to go silly put calls and Glenn Gelson is the head coach now as you guys know, Dallas three days in a letters practice in 24 stuff. We stole this guy. There you go. He goes, he works his ass off like you're like, you know, and so I started here, you know, again, I live right across the street down here. They're in their captain's gates, stand contact with the, the right guys and they're telling me Bob, the work rate on definitely by never quits on a, we're talking cat like those tend to be pretty loose. Those captain's gates. It's not a lot of defense. And he competed on every shot. And that has manifested into, he got through a tough first start Vancouver. It was going in. It did matter which team was shooting at that game in Vancouver. That the order's ending was 97 or whatever it was. The puck was going in that night, but he overcame it. And since then, the last three starts, he's at a 9.56, he's a percentage, and he's made critical stops against Seattle. When Edmonton was tied 1-1 against Anaheim when the ducks were, they were going early in that game. They got two power play goals and he robbed him a couple times in the final eight minutes of that first period. And then the oiders years perked up after a boot shared goal. And the other night against L.A., and you're right, wait, like they didn't have a ton of great aides, but they had lots of shot volume and still got to be sharp. And he was sharp. And he's competitive. Big players have to prove they can't play smaller guys have to prove they can't, especially goalies. And so he's now, they're facing a different animal tonight. This is a good team. Utah, Edmonton's got a lot of guys banged up. Maybe more than we were thinking before the day started Dickinson left practice today. I'm not sure he's going to be able to go. Could have five of their top nine forwards out tonight against Utah, but the bottom line here is Levi's get the start again tonight. He's played pretty well and you mentioned pod closing quick, what's he got seven goals and six games? And you know, people will say, oh, he gets the play with McDavid and dry side, but how many guys get to do that and how many guys are able to contribute and he's doing it? What would you, you know, if you looked at his game, what would you say that makes him able to fit with those two? So well, work rate, competitiveness, you know what, the order is worse to play off series last two years were Florida in the 25 final and last year against Anaheim. and Podzie was a plus player in both series. Like he just, he never, and he's honest. He's, he's developed, you know, he's surprised guys. He sticks up for his teammates. He's a pretty good fight. He's a strong guy. He's well built. Little bit of an old-school Russian in him. Okay. And which I kind of admire. Track suit to cigarettes. Track suits. Hard. Hard competitive player. But lots to like in his game. And you know, they gave up a fourth round or to get him. He's on a three year extension of 2.95 million. He's already helped. This is your one of that deal. Like he's already helped perform. Yeah. He's, he's a legitimate top six forward all day. Oh, I was just saying, like Stan Bowman's got, like I feel like he's gotten criticized quite a bit. But if you look at his offseason in the way, he's able to, been able to reshape this team. I think he's made a lot of great moves. Shay coming in and I feel like his deal is very low considering what all these other guys are signing for. Who are the ones you're most excited about and who he brought in? And I guess you can kind of run through the list of guys that have helped contribute early on. Shay's those playing 23 minutes a night. Yeah. What do you sign for? That's the number one one for me. Like, you know, and they had a lot of proskeouts. They got a guy named Nick Korak that grew up with Connor. That his been, he's one of the younger guys that's sort of in the mix and he's based out East. And they were in on, they were in on Shay, you know. Kyle Dewis does a good job in Pittsburgh. Not quite sure why they didn't get him extended there. You know, he was, what was he last year at 35 points and was plus 30? It's a pretty good year. Yeah. Stand drafted. I mean, Chicago didn't sign him. But he's, you know, he's owned his craft and worked his way up and was in Texas. Rince a pretty good, you know, Dallas got a good farm team and he was there for a few years. He's been, and he's a great fit. Like, no, no, you go and the right sort of guy for this market and he is playing a ton. And so what they have is they have echo him in, in Booshard. We get a play with McTave, a dry settle and Pucosan. Like, like Booshard's 15 goals for five on five to against. Okay, so he's been on the ice for 15, five on five goals this year. Half the teams in the lead don't have 15 goals, five on five. And he orders only played six players. They'll get there by Christmas. Well, that's, that's another conversation. I mean, hey, just, we all love talk. But first, Pucosan and I'll meet you off. Like, you start to look at it a little bit. So completely different players, I get it, right? Like, but both Russia, very different players. Anyway, it's about to show you. He's done a great job and shame, Murphy have really solidified the second pairing for Evans. And, and they play a lot of the heavy minutes, a lot of the top minutes against, you know, teams have a choice. Do we go ahead to head against McDavid, dry settle and Pucosan or do we send a check in line out against them? And on the road, the opposition teams put check in lines against those guys. So, you know, she and Murphy got the number one line matchups against some emerging California teams. Like, you know, and I'm in San Jose. Those are going to be good teams here in the future. Good teams right now. Bob, question for you, Isaac Howard. They make the deal they trade. I think it's Samo Riley. And I saw Isaac Howard at Michigan State if lies compete, it seems. What, what's he almost missing? I thought maybe at this point, you'd have a chance on a top line. And it seems like he's kind of stuck four fine here and there. Like, is there a chance this kid still turns into a score in a top six player? Would you trade meach call for him? Ha. Lots of, I don't think, I mean, fill it up. Top five pick. Does this belly do that realistically? In Isaac's case, it wasn't just Isaac Howard. The order is traded. Or, Riley, who is a right shot center that they believed in. The Scouts believed in. But they had a beat on a guy named Owen Michaels. And they got a guy named Kelly Larson in the development side. And he told me about Owen Michaels two years ago. He'd won a national championship at Western Michigan and said, we have the perfect fourth line right shot center. A guy who's going to come in, accept his role, not think that he should be enough. So he goes, if we do this deal, we think we have a fallback here. And the fallback was Owen Michaels, who is, you know, been a bit of a surprise. I saw Owen last year at the end of the year. And I was, I was like, there's no way he's playing in the NHL next season. Really? And he came in a development camp and he looked great. Like, he'd had a great off season training. So as for Howard, I personally think Howard probably could play a little higher in the lineup right now. Like, I'm a little bit surprised that he's become a worker, sort of like Savoy became a worker last year, right? Like, you'd think, you know, he's a little bit of a flashy dresser when he was drafted and a little bit of like, was he a cock? I don't, all I'm telling you is I watched a transformation of him last year. I watched all Bakers fields games in the NHL. And he works hard. And he's been OK. And wait, I'm with you. I, it wouldn't surprise me when Amazon gets healthier. If he might get an opportunity higher in the lineup, because they might have a little bit more center depth at that time. I was going to ask you that too when, you know, Newton Hyman come back, do you think? And I know that they do it throughout the year. They put, you know, Leon and Connor together. But do you think with the way it's going right now, they keep that line together with him, Paul Coleson? And Leon? So Stan's dad was the greatest coach in the history of the game, Scotty Bowman. And the clock, who's in Edmonton now? Oh, sorry, well, and who? At the clock. Oh, here we go. What? He's wondering where can fucking talk? He's got his slong and his mouth a lot. He's won everything in hockey. Sorry that we were behind him getting released from Columbus only to then play the long game and have him in Edmonton now. That's what you wanted. Oh, I can't wait till we get on our conversation about how Canada blew the gold medal. That's it. But he's either in your ass. Scotty Bowman played Gila Flurr, Steve Shot, Jockelmare Montreal's three best forwards together. You know, I had these conversations to stand last year. I thought Edmonton should have loaded McDavid and dry settle up more to answer your question. Absolutely. I think they're going to continue to, where's Connor going to play with the better player with Leon dry settle? And where is he going to have a better transition defenseman? They have a boot shirt. And now he's got Pat Coleson, who goes and gets the puck and is an honest player. And if somebody, you know, he can keep the flies off. I'm not saying he's business, he tough, but he has not a couple guys out in his career. Like no, he's probably way tougher. He's from Chernobyl. Yeah. You survive that. You can survive anywhere. He's at a typical St. Petersburg player is what you're saying. Yes. And then you guys still got Hyman coming back. Another guy who pretty much does the same thing, but maybe a little bit more, would you say a little bit more skill or better around the net? I think Zach, I don't think Zach, well, Zach's not playing tonight, but I think Zach will be the first of those guys back. I mean, Zach Hyman and Vasilie Pat Coleson are workers. And there are lessons in this for players like Colton doc, right? And potentially for Howard, don't forget Savoy. Savoy really came on last year after the Olympics. He was a pretty useful player. You know, it's funny. People are like, oh, you didn't have a great playoff. Oh, yeah. I don't want that. I watched Pavel Datsuit with Detroit, lose to Leoiders in '06. He had 15 points in his first 44 playoff games. It's just like John Cooper. Like John Cooper's a great coach, right? John Cooper's two and 10 at home in the last four years on the playoffs in Tampa. And you can make numbers work anywhere you want. He's still a hell of a coach. So two and 10 at home in the playoffs with Tampa. So anyways, they've got more guys coming. We don't know what Edmonton is yet. They're playing with better structure and process in their game. They're getting some stops from Levi. And they got three superstar players, with David Drys settle and Boushard. And they are killing it to start the year. - Stop. You are Edmonton. You're a oiler. - You bleed orange. - Here it comes. - But you're also, no, you're also an NH. This guy knows the league. Anything else you're seeing there. We were just talking before he came on about things that are surprising us so far. Anything that you've noticed or teams, you're like, wow, this team looks pretty good. I mean, Utah's in the barn tonight. They look nice. - Oh, yeah. - Utah and San Jose are the best position of the teams in the West, long term, to potentially go out and bring in another top flight player. You know, like you look at Utah and over the last three years, they drafted, again, La Dinoia and Belches, who's playing at Michigan State right now. Those are, you know, Belches was a top five pick that dropped into the mid first round. And then you look at San Jose and they got Stemberg, which scored his first goal. They got Verhoff and they got Ryan Lynn. And those are gonna be their deal of the future. So I look at, you know, not to mention me so the year before. I look at San Jose and Utah. Those are two really exciting teams. And don't discount Anaheim, right? Like we know, yeah, just, I know what we talked about, Bush not making the Olympic team. You want a bigger, you know, stupid decision on the part of hockey in Canada. They didn't have Beckett, Santa Cone, the world, junior team. - How was that? - Yeah, third overall. - Wow. Like only Canada would not have that guy on their team. Like that guy is a, you know, the next theory outscored every single player that was on Canada's world junior team by a mile at the NHL level. So Anaheim is gonna be really good. So there's some exciting teams. I'll mention the West because we've been out West all year. You know, in the East, I am surprised the Flyers are struggling. As far as you know, I'm surprised they beat Pittsburgh last year in the opening round. That's, that's serious surprise. They got good goal tenning. I think they got stops last year. Come back down to Earth. Their analytics are like with a capital U. So we'll see if they can get a turn around at some point. They might be a team to watch here for potential movement with some top six guys in the field. - Stop. You mentioned you guys were out West. And when you in the locker room for the Darnel nurse and everybody the breed spec comment. - Oh, that face. [BLANK_AUDIO] made. What's that? Yeah, you know, I, I did, I had a very pleasant conversation with Darnell. Yeah, I feel for Darnell. He, he got paid in a year where all the defensemen got paid. He was unreal at year in the Scotiabank North Division, right? He had 16 goals, 36 points. The others lost the Winnipeg. I think the final game went in a triple over time. He played half the game. Cleft Mom's career was over in Larson. Had a real brutal personal thing occur and he elected to leave, which is what is, because the orders keep the majority of their players as you guys know. So Darnell got paid and then Bouchard jumped ahead of him to play it in the first unit and also played five on five with McDavid. And that changed the complexion a bit for Darnell. Darnell played hard. He was a competitive player. He was an honest player. He's, you know, he's a good guy. His teammates loved him. There's no question about that. But it was probably time for change for both parties. So, you know, I used to, spec used to do my show for years. You reap what you sell, right? People interpret what they want to interpret. There's an old saying, right? If you deal from a position of positivity, you rarely have a negative response. The beautiful quote. Breach. Not as beautiful as what you wrote with the other day, but that's right. That's a beautiful quote. The guy, the guy's a poet, boys. You are. And he knows the lead. And he knows this league. And he knows the oil. There's eight years of post-secondary education and Canadian taxpayers paid for it. So, I was a wonderful. I might have been taken a hose. I might have been taken a hose when Whit asks his question. But if he hasn't, how impressed have you been with how like Babcock has handled himself walking on thin ice? He's giving interviews. There's no thin ice, bro. He's interviewing people. Can I finish my question? You went at the cock, dude. You know, you're going to get a response. I didn't fucking go at the cock. You mentioned his name. I'm asking staff how impressed he's been by the, by the new cock. I'm not at all surprised. I'll tell you why. I marched the 14th when the order is announced to Chris Nobler. I wasn't coming back. I said, uh, I believe his Yamatoaters will target a coach with gravitas with experience. I remember that word. I remember a structure and process and a team's game. And a guy that's want to stand like up before. And on June the 9th, I said that on our show, I said, I could go on the air and BS. Oh, they're just looking at it. I said, no, Mike Babcock's their guy from ownership, the management to the players. One of the biggest things for me was the players. And I'm going to reference the players. I have buddies that played it. Read your college in the late 80s and the left bridge went into national title. They're 94 to this day. They love Mike Babcock because they're from an era where they want to guys telling them the way it is. No BS. This is how, how do I get better? How do I improve every single day? I air check my show. How do I get better? I'm going to watch this and go stock. You should have handled this question. Like that's, that's what the best do. You want to be good. You're grind away to continue. That's why a coals and don't put limits on what he can do as a player because he works at high. I'm not surprised. Mike's had the impact. He has this team was ready to be coached by a guy like that. He's also taken a little bit of time away to reevaluate. They did a lot of studying some of the best organizations in the league the last couple of years. And again, I don't 100% know where this group collectively can go because I haven't seen them 100% healthy, but I'm liking the structure and process and I love the energy early in the season with you. I don't like it. Can you say you love the cock? I don't think, don't say that. That's my line. Stop and we're not going to put you in a spot. Well, he can go back and reevaluate that when he watches back. I was just going to tell him. I don't think there's ever been a thing he's said or done on this show that he could ever improve upon what he's agreed here here. The guy's a professional Bob Stoffer. Our man in oil country. We appreciate and we will talk to you soon, stuff. Thank you so much. Last question. Has he asked to see your phone? That's the last question I have. Don't answer that. Don't answer that. Good question. I told you, Daniel Cleary, Stanley Cup champ. He started to win everybody over. Stanley Cup champ. The trade wedding said, I love Mike Babcock. Thanks for having me. See you later.

And then it's like you actually have to eat 48 pizzas to get one free. So when I heard about the shelf, you rewards program. I was I was skeptical. Shocking. I know me skeptical.

He's just a radio show host. He's not just a knower of all things hockey. More importantly, his health. He looks a fucking pound dude. Good for him. Couple clicks for the stuff. Once again, I mean, we've seen the picture. He looked like a Hollywood actor when he was 20. So it's all coming back now. He might get booked for a movie. Who knows? You think you think he's on the LG? What are they called? GLP once. No, I think he straight up natural note cheating. Just not eating, walking his dick off or 14,000 steps a day, boys walking his cock off. There should be a show. Stop in the cock. And he, you know, he gets to talk to stuff in the cock. Stop in the cock. Stop in the cock. Boom. Or stop in the cock. That could end up on the Edmonton airwaves pretty soon. All right. Let's bring in our guy. Love people know him as R.A. A. K. A. The Wart hog, A. K. A. Rear Admiral. A. K. A. Brian McGonagall. Oh, he's got his fucking mic muted. I can't believe it. I can't believe it. It's like he muted. It's it's not working. As Mike was muted at the live show for home by three. All right. We got it. We got, I don't know what we got to do here. Well, we can't hear you, big guy. He's got the 617 locals Jersey hanging. Hello, everybody. Welcome to our raise world here on the spit and chick. Let's podcast. That'll make difficulty there. You got them right. Yeah, though, I got the 617 locals Jersey there. I did not give those gals enough of a shuttle last step. I got a little. Oh, you did. Yeah, you did. No, no, I didn't know. I didn't know it at all. I forgot security Mike guy. By the way, that's security guys of the other, the best. The best. Good call. Absolutely. Best. I don't know if we shot him out last step. He came out to be after the game. We got knocked out in the semis. He said, I read. I just want to know by five. That was the best game of this whole fucking tournament. My girls were throwing shots, taking shots. Like, like, it's unfortunate. We didn't have a camera on site. No, like, it was the most violent game of the chick. Let's cup. And we did lose. No, you know, I see you smirk. Talk to anybody. Talk to Terry off the target. I saw woodsie shank somebody in our game, buddy. Well, my girl shot somebody. All right. One of my girls shot somebody. I'm just saying these, these deals were the best. I should have given them a bit more of a shadow. But yeah, uh, but also to one of my players, Skylar Irvin, AK Scurvy, she won the PWHL Cup last year with the Montreal Victois. So a little shadow to them. But yeah, security Mike, no less a man than a former NYPD club. That's redundant. But he said it was the best game of the tournament. So thank you for putting that out. You guys don't make thunder already. I come in having the Boston goddamn Bruins five and two. Firstly Atlantic Jeremy Swamon. You know, he's already what number eight on the all-time wins list for Bruins, goalies. And interestingly, this comes from my friend Kurt Ludecki, uh, great guy, great scout. Before Swamon, the most Boston wins by a goalie that the Bruins drafted was Bill Randford with 52 wins. Swamon's up to 137. Just passed Joe Joe Bay. The great Joe Joe Bay, uh, guy, or number one for the team as well. Uh, next up is uh, Kobe's good friend Eddie Johnston at 182. So love with this team. Who's number one? Tuka. Tuka 308. Uh, tiny Thompson, Frankie Bremseck, uh, Jerry Chivas. that Timmy Thompson, Timmy Thomas, Timmy Thomas, and Eric Johnston, there's, there's Johnston, Thomas and Johnston, there's a lot of, Dan, I would, it's kind of like the all time leaders and goals for the New York Rangers. Like you're a little underwhelmed by the original six goalie, like the best, the most winning as goalie, only having what three or eight, you said? Yeah, great. Yeah, exactly. That's a great point, Chris, for, for such a story, long time, franchise, you think the numbers might be a little bit higher. And I was shocked when, when Kirk told me that was the most Boston ones by a guy drafted by Boston, only 52. And he's, you know, he's got 137 right now. So you guys got one cup in 54 years. Like when we're talking of this, you guys, you're a Bruins fan, what about now? I am not. And I'm telling you right now, Bruins fans act like this historical, it's like, you got one cup in 50, 54 years. Okay. All right. Can I ask a question to G or, or Fishy or anybody back there? Shut up to our production crew. You guys are the best. Um, we did this for the highest goal scores for all the original six. Can we get the most winning as goalies in each organization, organization's history? Like which organization of original six led the way with the goalie having the most wins? It might be, I mean, rangers might have it with long quest. Yeah. Yeah. Chocomo. Chocomo will be out there. I would say 20th. Maybe, dry, Kenny Dryden. I mean, but he only played eight years. Yeah. He played. Yeah. I'm a carry price. They're good. They were so good. They're good that they carry price up some wins. I was, wow, it's Hank. Hank, guys, the most winning is goalie in original six history with 459 wins. Who Chicago's at E.B. Esposito is Chicago with 400. There we go. I wasn't too far off there. Toronto. I have no idea who Toronto's would be. Terry shock with Detroit, throw it in 50. I think I was basically. So Toronto's actually last. I'm a list. Yeah. Yeah. But no, seriously, about the, above the bees, I mean, Paturca just, I'm, I'd real move to like upgrade from avid sense to him. Would he's brought the energy, the score and whatnot? Swaman Stella picking up where he left off last year, phrase it, that's who is G-Cosm. Been unreal so far. Mason Lora. I think having like McAvoy suspended at the start, the M might have been like even good for him and some guys. He kind of got the jump out play the way he's playing. Hagen's four goals and seven games. Ben, I fucking love this team. I can't wait to see what happens this year. And another way you stole my thunder tool was Dylan Garant. Yeah, Garant, I'm sorry. The goal tender for the ranges. This guy was on wave is on September 27th. Any fucking team in the league could have had him right now. He's, I mean, he, he goes from third string. His, his number one gets hurt. His number two gets hurt, call up a salo. He's three and one with a 1.15, a nine five, one, say, percentage in a shadow. And the MSG creases his. This give us one fucking wave is September 27th. And now the MSG creases his. It's an awesome story. I know Rangers fans don't like me too much, but I'm giving you his props here. The parody and goal pinning is like anything. It's like it's never been this good. Like look at bus. You could say. Yeah. No, no, it's good. Right off the hop. But like, I think it was bad the last year or two with this year. The numbers are off the chain. I know it's only a few games in, but what we'll see now to go is insane this year. Oh, and there's been buzzing. Are apparently Hagen's only has two goals, but still you've been. No, I said two, two and four, four points and seven games. Okay. I heard what G fuck off. I suck on that. But either way, no, I love what this obviously goal union and all that stuff. But I love what this kid is doing. Because I love what you guys did on TNT last night. You got all the number 91s around the league to which Willie O'Ree happy 91st. Well, I didn't do it, but they did it. That's awesome that they did it. Yeah. You know, I mean, man, it was awesome to see it. I love how they had you guys celebrating the 50 anniversary together. And they had all your faces on babies. And weino's faces on a baby, but the body was a little black baby. I don't. Yeah. I think that that was supposed to be Anton's baby. Oh, no, obviously, I said that little wing. I was like, little Wayne Gretzky. I thought it was pretty funny, but yeah, whatever. I mean, he does live in Florida now. So maybe it was a hand. Also, I missed this last week. Obviously, check out this couple of like going on. Congrats to Matt Dumber. He retired 13 NHL seasons played for five different teams. 261 points and 748 games and other 54 in the playoffs. Like I said, we always like to salute the guys who left the national. I can leave. So congrats to Matt Dumber on a hell of a career. Great stuff. I want to say you're welcome to a lot of the NHL social media counsel there who really liked the movement and talk last week because they obviously used that as a drop at our point for some of their questions this week. You have team Biz or your former team, the Toronto Maple Leafs asked conspiracy theories and way too many guys answered the Moonland, but I thought it was pretty funny. Gabriel Landis with out buddy, Johnny Lazarus. Same thing. I don't know. I thought it was kind of funny. We talked about the Moonland. Oh, you say that it was funny or you want them dead? Yeah. Yeah. No, no, I think I know. I think I think it's funny that our A's world talk about the Moonland. Obviously he had an obvious ripple effect heat with other other teams and I was. I don't know. I don't know. So it's a calm and like, so you're saying that was all you. So it's a coincidence that a week after I snapped about people being assholes about land on the moon that other like our coach just happened to talk about it. Maybe it is a coincidence with. I don't know. Either way, I'd be shocked. What are you lean towards? All right. You're taking credit for it. They did land on the moon. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I yeah, Biz. I think the fact that, you know, we talked about the Moonland. They're going to spit and check with us last week and then it becomes. Okay. Well, I'm news for you here. Yeah. Let's have it. Johnny Lazarus Gabriel Landiscarg segment about landing on the moon was filmed in September. Yeah. Okay. Okay. But the Toronto blue blue James may believe one wasn't so. Okay. Either way, if not, if not, I'm glad. Do you want me to reach out to Leafs Admin? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, no, I mean, no, I can check in if need be. I'm just saying it was. I thought it was funny a week. I want to broke the ice. You're saying you are the needles. What you're saying? No, no, no, no, buddy. Guy, I'm not, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying I thought it was funny that our moonland and talk led to like more moon landing talk a week later. Maybe they were sitting on it. Maybe not. I would say that was your moon landing talk as opposed to ours. Okay. All right. In a non amusing way, because maybe you would think that this conspiracy would actually be true. What would be your favorite conspiracy theory that you actually believe to be might be true? This could be we are. We're not going to be talking about this soon. So go ahead. Well, well, I mean, it's talked about as a conspiracy, but it's really not. And that's, I mean, and I mentioned it when we talked about a week ago, but obviously the moon was to talk, you know, it was JFK assassination. I mean, there's no conspiracy. I mean, there was a conspiracy there, but that's one that is actually true. There was a conspiracy to kill the at the time, sitting president of the United States of America. And like, yeah, I mean, there's that he didn't, if you've ever been to Dele plaza in Dallas, and I was there for a stars game years ago in the past played in Dallas back in the droop, let's wear a if you stand on that fifth floor of the the schoolbook deposit story, and you realize we have a house without a whom fucking straight headshot for 15 seconds until he turns. Now, if he was a one man like a assassin, he would have like, you know, done it right away. And they waited. He waited until he turned and then I wouldn't stood on the grass, you know, and you can stand there. And it's the most airy fucking thing I've ever felt Paul my life. When you stand there and they have X's mocked on the road where like the two shots struck Kennedy. And when you stand there, you and to see his head go back into the left, I mean, quote, the movie there from all of us, don't when you stand there, you realize, oh my god, like, this is it's so simple when you stand there because behind you, it's this like sort of old railroad guy with like sewer covers that lead down to ladders that lead down to roads to get the fuck out there as quick as possible. And like, like, when I went to daily plaza man, I always believe, yeah, I never believed Oswald back to alone, but to be there to stand on those spots, to stand on the spot behind where Oswald was in the depository. And then to be on the grass, you know, you have to have like thousands of rocks in your head to think that like one guy acted alone on that. Wow. Okay. So the okay, so the so currently is it reported and documented that this guy was on a solo mission to assassinate him? Well, well, no, well, the government commiss, uh, back in the day, they they put the Warren commission together, which was this big like huge book. And like, they concluded like joking itself that like Oswald acted alone. That was the official like investigation, but you know, I mean, there's dreams and dreams of fucking paper evidence. I'll do a biz like the idea that this guy stood there and like wanted to kill like JFK. And he had prior like Russian connections or whatever. Of course, he got shot on Camry was murdered literally on live TV by Jack Ruby. And it was like the biggest like rig game of all time. So yeah, I mean, to think that uh, something like other than what happened for JFK to JFK, it's crazy. He was he was clearly murdered. I mean, it is. I know you know, the biggest history guy. Basically, it was his election versus Nixon in 1960. It was, it was well, Titus, whatever analogy you want to come up in your mind. There's a nuns con. There you go. So his, his old man had tons of mafia connections and he leaned on CMG and Conor in Chicago to like make, make sure everybody in Chicago voted for JFK. So it was swing the election. And it really did. But then after he gets in, his brother RFK is the attorney general. And he goes after the mafia. It's like, motherfucker, you want to have this job because these guys just got you your brother elected. And he went right after them. And like, you know, it's awful like his America could have been in a different place. And you know, who knows how history would have played out then again, who knows who of us would have been here by now. I'm going to have to do like, stop and listen back. because I kind of lost you there with the x's on the road. But it's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot. It's what I'm in your gears today. All right. Nothing, buddy. I actually know what's going on my giz is I a lot of fans reaching out lady. It's the streaming and the blackouts. I know, buddy. I know you're probably. Oh, that's what it's it's it's it's it's it's it's on behalf of the listeners on behalf of the fans. You know, I hear from fans in Canada, the streaming. They can't watch games like wherever they go. I'm hearing people in Minnesota. They go. They want to watch the wild at the bottom. They cannot do that. I hear from fans in Arizona who already lost their fucking teams already. Yeah. That's me. I can't watch Utah man with games. They can't watch Utah. They can't watch Colorado. They can't watch Vegas. That's that's unjust. It's it's crazy that this still happens that these many fans are being shut out. Just make it easy for our fans to watch the game. I'm begging you, Gary NHL, whatever. I know, money takes presence, but these blackout restrictions, these blackout zones, they're old. They're from the 1960s. They don't need to be there anymore. Let fans watch the game. So that that's grand in my gaze on behalf of all the other fans out there. Okay. I thought it was going to be the like a requesting tickets and then not showing up for tickets. All right. You know what? We're on the Cincinnati. Like I said, like I said, the I talk, I talk. I was going to try to surprise you. They must be recording themselves. I was going to surprise you with the home by three guys to like have like, you know, make a joke and make light of it. Okay. Yeah. I love those. I know, but I think they might be recording right now. Okay. We try to get a hold of them. But I guess as like a like a, you know, you did ask for tickets. Didn't show up. I can't. It's not the biggest deal in the world. We got to promote their show coming up because they do these live for live shows, which they did in Boston. I don't know if they maybe they did tune Boston. Their next one's going to be December 3rd in Chicago where apparently their crowd gets pretty rowdy. Like they're all on dust. Like they, they chant. We want dust. We want to come up. There might be doing a young off with the yak with Dana Beers. So all right. When you actually requested the tickets, what ended up happening? Why you couldn't make it? Well, honestly, when I die, I feel like this one of those things like I'm like, if you guys want to know, I could talk to you after. But it's just like the heads down to a checklist. It's like, I mean, I talked to those guys off campus. Like, yeah, bro, it's just a like whatever. Whatever a prior matter is that if I get to one question, then again, it's a two one three and four. Yeah. Like we had a show. I had a lot of last minute requests. People didn't show up. Whatever. Things happen. I didn't get mad about it. I didn't throw in the bus. Whatever. I talked to, I talked to heat daddy for 15 minutes and we had an awesome conversation. It was just, you know, I wasn't able to make it because I was unable to make it. It was stay between us and whatever. I don't feel like I don't know. If you guys want to talk to me after, but I don't know the fucking internet. I don't know what an answer is for what happened to my personal time. So it wasn't anything bad. It was just, you know, shit happens. Like, you know, sort of literally like what is alluded to. So I don't know. I feel like it's a slope like, I don't know. It wasn't a work related thing. And like, I literally asked for the day before. I had all intentions to go and things came up where it was like, okay, I can't make this right now. And I didn't want to text them ten minutes before because I know they have enough on their mind. Yeah. You don't want throw them off. Yeah. Exactly. We've had these similar shows and I dropped the ball and not get back some in a quick amount of time. But I had, I had it on the list of checklists to get into them. And yeah, it's between me, those guys, I think where I'm square with them and whatever. You know, I don't think we need to waste time. That's a good apology. And it's a good way to break it down. Yeah. Yeah. I love those guys. I mean, like said, me and he had an awesome chat with just, you know, whatever. Life happens. And I mean, I obviously would not have asked for a ticket the day before the show if I was not going to get the coke shots. Yeah. I'm fucking around. Do it. Come on. I know. I know. He took a bullet man. You can fuck a joke. Have you really never heard people complain about like any chill? I'm sorry, NBA, NFL, major league baseball, hours before never. Honestly, it's a good thing that people are sat in a complaint about hockey. That means that they're getting up there and stuff. Bizz, I did send you a DM the other night. You know, over the weekend, we had the blind hockey players. Yes. It was an awesome, awesome demonstration. Everybody loved it. Just to see the smiles that one young girl with the glasses on. And I say, having fun out there and the way her face lit up and smiled that she was out there playing hockey. And another one of the players gave me a little something to give to you, but we never ended up meeting up later. The gummies. So I took them at a concert. I sent you a DM the other night. Yeah. That's right. You did about how good they were. Oh, my God. Well, was that the night of the live show? Yeah, I must have been. No, no, no, no, no, this, this was Tuesday because I bought the ticket for it. It's Sturgial Simpson. He's great country rock. It's like a delicatus. And like, he, he took on this new name, like, you know, like sort of what God Brooks did when he went to Chris Gaines years ago. He's like, Johnny blue skies and the doc clouds. And he was doing a show with the guy. And I bought a second months ago and like sort of forgot because it was so long. I'm like, Oh, shit, I got this concert. So I took two of those like gummies before I left the house to grab the bus over a bit. By the time I got to my seat, I was seeing the dance and dance already. I was like, holy fuck. And I suppose a blind guy's making much from gummies. They're going to have a little intensity to them. And it would an absolute show with an absolute awesome concert. They come out at eight o'clock, plates 11, 10, no breaks, no open is just an unreal show. I'm going, but I'm going on a Brooklyn. I always say Sturgial Simpson is one of the most undercover artists on the planet. Like the everyone's like, Oh, Morgan, all in this guy culture. I always say he fucking crushes those people really. Sturgial Simpson is nasty. He turned the guy into like a like a psychedelic rock disco the other night. Like with the disco ball going, it was absolutely insane. Obviously, I was, you know, you know, the effects of whatever, but the show isn't so good. I'm going, I'm driving on a Brooklyn. I'm getting the grandma key out of the fucking, out of the fucking ice groups or whatever, taking it down a Brooklyn. I'm driving to see him again. That's how good the show is. I want to see it. I got a ticket in the pit. So I'll just go up there by himself. Is he like a one man show? No, he's got a band. He's got a band with him. Yeah. And like I said, he started out as a sort of country like rock type. And he came up with an album last year. And it was like the head, like a disco inflection to it, but all at rock at the same time. And the show was unreal the other night. So I want to give props to Johnny Blue skies and the back clouds. And yeah, I'll be down Brooklyn. See you again. Yeah. Shifting it back to hockey. I'm reminder, Gaines, you sent this to the group. Matthew Schaefer. I think he's played 90 NHL games. And he's had how many multi-point games so far? 16 or something, right? Yeah, 14 or 16 multi-point games for me, Schaefer. He had another one, you know, he's got to be young defenseman. I just see here now Z. Buyam healthy scratch tonight for Vancouver. I know it hasn't been a great star for him. It wasn't going to be great at any point. I'm bullish on him, though, man. When you see guys dominate world juniors like that, I'm sure there's a ton of examples of maybe that's actually a bad example. But the way that that guy played at the international level, you 20 and in college hockey, I refuse to believe he's not going to be awesome in the NHL. And you know, so I was surprised to see that though that he's getting scratched. I just want to remind people some of my early preseason predictions. I've had the wild missing playoffs. They were leading the central the other day. Realka pre-soft eight goals. He leads the league. And they're just playing some good hockey. So fuck that one up. Also had the Vegas golden nights having a slow start. Last I checked, they were leading the Pacific. Maybe they'd been taken over at this point, but off to a really good start. So another L there. And I mean, yeah, I did. Hills playing good for them is getting gold tending from both guys. Actually, no song. No song. I have a couple of other notes NHL as well. I do. I do want to give out shout outs to Utah and Seattle for the great stats. Seattle getting great golden from Grubao and our buddy Joey DeCord. Utah not getting the great gold tending, but they they're just doing a pie committee right now. It's great to see those teams kind of jump out to a nice early start and continue with the music theme, my classic recommendation for the week. It's a new classic. It just come out of the theater. It's the Oasis documentary. Don't look back at Anga. I went to the tour out in Chicago last year. And it's phenomenal. I've said it before. I've been to three concerts in the last few weeks. The strokes Russian and now Johnny Blue skies and how how like you know, we talk about sports can be powerful and and and enjoy and and music is the same way, man. It's just like a live show can just like inject you with this sort of energy and just like we get feel a little less it's heat daddy and schmoutsy. But yeah, anyway, I have a I played a game that you would love. I actually bought the game. No free ads. What it's called hitster. Okay. And it's a deck of cards. And so each team gets a card with a year on it. All right. Then you scam the next card and a song pops up and you have to say, I've seen that game. Was it before after the year? Then you get then you get two cards. So then the next one, you got to go is it between those two or you know, before the other one. And you have to get 10 cards to win. Excellent game. Right. I feel like it'd be right. up your alley. It's awesome. And then it's funny because while playing the game, you hearing songs and you have to, you have to think back to where you were in life when you, when this song came out. That's how you can kind of figure out the year, what year it's between. You scan the QR code to place a song, right? Yeah, of the next card. And then you're able to flip that card over and it shows where that was. That was a great game. Good shit. And our buddy, gee, he was down. Quinnipiac doing the latest chick that you, gee, jump on and let us know a couple of fellows who are talking to buddy. Yeah, we did it with Ethan Whittenback, Calgary Flames, draft pick. We had Mason Marcellus come on. He's the kid who, uh, the picture went viral of him. He's just got no hair on the top of his head. Oh, yeah. But we actually, yeah, it was tough, but he's an awesome kid. And we actually spent 24 hours in the arena. We did, we slept, showered, eat, did everything in there. It's pretty cool. 3 a.m. We're out on the ice shooting pox going over the basketball arena throwing up shots. So it's pretty cool. And then, uh, you got dummy to golf, right? Yeah. I ran, kicked a shit out of me and golf. And the worst part is his middle of the round. I'm down like five or six holes to him. And then I get a notification on my phone that hangs on PMT. And he's calling me out too, saying I suck at golf. So I got, I got to get better at golf. I'll beat Rand in the rematch, but I guarantee you a granelli guarantee, I beat Hank when he play that guy. I, I, I would really like to host you guys for not only a sandbagger, but also the Hank and, and G match, uh, next summer in Victoria. I don't know if you guys would ever travel that far in the summer. That would be amazing. Would you travel, be honest? Would you travel that far for me? I, I do anything for you, buddy. I do anything for you. I go the moonfly of this. Thanks, baby. Biz, um, I don't know. I don't know what you were, you was such a Jay Z fan, you and Pierre, but this documentary out right now, it's Jay Z and Rick Rubin. Oh, cool. Uh, they kind of like go, they play lyrics from songs, then they kind of break it down. I think you'd really like it. Okay. Thank you. Yeah. The, the, I, the last rap one I saw was the defiant ones. Credible with, yeah, Dr. Dre. Um, that was Jay, I mean, yeah, the M&M was in it a little bit. Uh, did you guys see Mitch Marner, touches assistant coaches, penis? I did see that little system culture security. Oh, I thought I was, I thought I was trying to get some bullets different. Yeah, big difference. Little sack whack never hurt. And you know, I mean, I guess it does hurt occasionally, but, I wouldn't do more laughs at my joke. I would join the club. All right. Yeah. So you're just off the Brooklyn. Just just to trip, trip your dick off and go to a concert. Well, no, I mean, I could be mangled for a night. No, no, this is actually where I'm in the pit. Uh, I'll probably, uh, and I'm driving to and fro. Uh, I'll probably just lock in like, I, I, I don't even bear ahead of them. It was a guy next to me brought me back one, but I know, but you were on psychedelic drugs. No, I was. So which, which means like, I probably won't be that, I won't be this, this night because I'm going to be so up close that, uh, like, that'll be the high. The high will be seen. There's been from fucking 20 feet away. You know what I mean? You're going to call bullshit. Okay. You're telling me you're going to be stone cold sober at this concert. All right. I mean, if you smoke in a joint, I mean, obviously, I'll, you know, I'll, I'll like, like marijuana comes. Yeah. No, no shit. But no, I mean, I, unless chip plans change that I can leave my customer and I stay a man had for the night or whatever. What are you going to try back after the, yeah, I mean, well, I got a, I got a spot for hooked up, shout out after you and why I take care of my boy with the, with the spot, a pocket spot down there. And then yeah, I literally went like, I mean, I'm just like right now, the focus is go to the concert. If, if I, if they're like, hey, you can leave your car here until tomorrow, then I'll take the subway over to Manhattan and have a, have a time. And then, you know, whatever, get a room, sleep it off. But right now, the focus is just getting to the show. And then my brother doesn't use car back till Sunday. So yeah, um, who knows. But no, why don't you just, um, get a hotel room and valet the car at the hotel and then go to the concert because, because I'm fly by night, buddy, I don't like, I already arranged for a pocket spot at a firehouse. So, you know, like, I, I think it's good change. I mean, someone might reach out and say, hey, I already heard you're in town. Let's get together and I could be right back on the, on the island of Manhattan right after. But right now, the focus is Johnny Bloom's guys and the dark clouds. And I'm going to be there with bells on in the fucking pit. And what night is this all right Friday night tomorrow night. And then, okay. And then I'll come out watch and whatever watch the, the Bruins at the ducks. I'll catch that afterwards. Like, like, like, I did the other night, the shocks.
