How it works is we got the live show here. We’re doing this live. You’re watching live YouTube chat. You put in a comment with some money.

We did a little audit. So, thank you to the viewers on the YouTube live. That’s uh almost 7,500 bucks for the kids. That’s way better than, you know, buying another hat or something stupid, right? Thought you meant. Yeah, that’s awesome. I I’ I’d be okay with taking money, but not from the kids. You won’t. I guess so. I got a lot of seven grand. Do you know Bandit Run? Tickets to the Jay’s. No, he hates the Jays. I got a lot of bills right now. That’s less fun. Well, maybe you shouldn’t be vacationing all over the place then. Big Spinda. Hey, Bigs. But and then what was everyone after uh super chatting about? What was the Was there a theme? Was it McKenna? Mission McKenna. What were they going on and on about last night? That’s usually what happens. You get a topic and people need to weigh in. They’re like, “I’ll pay a couple bucks to get on this topic and help the kids. I’ll pay two bucks to make all you other people look like idiots.” That’s right. That’s right. I’m going to show you guys. We actually had a couple where it was the uh the donation then no message. They kind of That happens. Your old thought bubble happens. I’m not sure what happens. But anyway, well, we’re here in the uh in the Brisk Mloud Law LLP studios today. We should check that thermostat. Is it just red or is it the whole place? Cuz I know he’s cold. He might just be My toes are radiating cool. It’s either diabetes or my toes are frozen. Like it’s I feel it in my fingers. I feel it in my toes. We could maybe turn up the uh the old thermostat if that cheap prick from downstairs keeps coming up here when we’re not around and jimmying with the old thermostat. Feeling my plums. [ย __ย ] you guys. Right down in the plums. You want heat, you start playing your own utilities, you bastards. Uh a lot to get into. We’ve got some baseball. We got some hockey. We got some other things. yesterday. New mayor. Well, I was going to say yesterday. I get home and I uh I had to stop and buy some dog food. I had so I got my arms full. I’m going up to the front door to open the door. Probably buying that rich dog and I kind of look uh out of my old periffs. My eyes don’t work so good, but a little bit like there’s some dude. Uh hi, I’m uh Bill Trilliger. I’m uh running for uh the Calgary City Council. I’ve got a little off my I’ve got a pample here. Oh. Oh, yeah. So, drop the freaking dog, dude. Uhhuh. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You know, I’m I’m tired of paying for blue rings and bad uh some art stuff around the city. We’re got to be done with that. We’re gonna do this. Okay. Door to door. All right. Well, I Yeah, you got my vote, buddy. Take take the path. Yeah. Okay. Well, that’s great. He’s like said the pl the polls close at 8. So, I said to I was like, “Oh, is that today?” No. Literally, I’ve been thinking about and I’m a bad I’m a bad Calgaryian, I guess. Oh. Oh, is that today? Yes, it’s today. The polls close at 8. He’s got his He’s doing door to door. He’s got his pamphlets. This has been his whole life and soul for months and months and some [ย __ย ] And Chapperel is like, “Oh, is that today?” Yes, it’s today. Hello, McFly. Oh god, the closing. Hurry. So you zipped over there? No. Come on, Dino. Democracy duties and your rights and privilege. You get a ticket in Australia, they can put you in jail if you don’t vote. Well, really can throw me in jail. Congrats to Neni. Did it again. Ni crushing Ni. Always crushing it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It looks like we’ll have a new mayor, but I know they’re counting a bunch of the advanced voting and stuff. It’s not confirmed yet. I thought the old mayor already new mayor, but it’s a new mayor. We don’t know which one. Which one? Yeah, one and two are not the incumbent. The old one said, “Uh, hey, I’m out of here.” I guess, uh, you guys don’t like me, so I’m out. So, good luck to whoever wants this thing. So, she’s not wrong. She’s out. You know what? I’ll give her credit for that. Yeah, she gone. The way you operated, Marta loop, you should be fired. Yeah. Well, she was popular for about 8 minutes. It was right around the election. That was her eight minutes. People voted a year ago. There was the vote, but then she spoke and then the it went downhill after. We’re in a climate emergency. A what? Okay. First words out of your mouth. There we go. All right. Anyway, not to get too political. Um, glad you got out and voted. I got a I voted. Did you rock the vote? I got an I voted sticker I was going to bring in. Dude, life is so easy if you just pay attention. Like they had a week of advanced voting with no lines and then it was like three hours yesterday. Really? I walked in. That’s good. That’s good. But I know a lot of people are like, “It’s the lines.” I’m like, “Well, you had a week. No lines.” I think people like hearing getting preached ad about stuff like that. So, they’ll appreciate you. Well, if you want the life hack, there it is. They’ll appreciate that. The advanced voting is a dream. Mhm. He’s got it all. Then when someone changes their policy in the last week, you’re hooped. But at least you got your vote. Yeah. They come out and say, “Yeah, it’s like an injury.” Yeah. About that thing I was going to do. Just kidding. Haha. It’s like your fantasy team playing on a Sunday night setting your lineup on Monday morning. Do I put them in or not? I don’t know. So, I don’t want to ask who you voted for. Awfully personality. Were they for or against bean salad? Uh, against. Everyone’s against bean salad. Are they? Yes. Except my one kid. You just promoted the bean salad. I wasn’t promoting. I was putting out fires. I got a kid that’s apparently not sick enough to go to bed early when the Blue Jays are on, but too sick to go to hockey and to his hockey camp. Do you want to recreate the the phone call? Phone call. I don’t I think we need to let people in on what happened this morning. I thought that’s Yeah, I can I can do it for you verbatim. Uh, hey Ry, it’s your old man. Uh, I’m looking in the lunch box here. Is this missing a sandwich or something? It’s looking pretty light. Uh, yeah. You know, there’s half a thing of bean salad and there’s some Thai food that’s cold. He can pick one. Yeah. Okay. Because it doesn’t look like a lot. He thought he had a sandwich. Yeah. Ryan’s one one kid uh was needing some lunch and Ryan’s options were uh some leftover Thai food or the bean salad that was in the fridge. Flip a coin, Dean. You’re not going to be disappointed. Everyone in the room kind of looked at each other. Bean salad for the 10-year-old. for the kid. It’s from the nice Italian market. It’s actually good. Yeah. See, again, you can pump that up. You can try and sell it as I’m telling you, I don’t like bean salad. I’m going to go to this joint cuz there’s one by my house. I’m going to try this GD bean salad. I can tell you right now, it’s not going to it’s not going to fly. If I put this on the table tonight, Dean, a big film, please. Big old big bowl of bean salad. Dig in and watch the people just tear into it. But when you first told people about Bontton’s potato salad, they’re potato salad cool, but I don’t like potato salad and you’re like, “No, no, you haven’t had this potato salad.” Disagree with you to a certain extent. There are certain dill. It’s bacon. It’s amazing. We understand. So, how much bacon is in the bean salad? Not as much. Right. Decidedly lots. Yeah. And dill and none. Sour cream. Yeah. None. Anyway, it’s not a perfect comp now that you down that way. It isn’t covered in a pool. It’s just good. We How many bean salad? How many parents are feeding their kids bean salad? I was out of options. They wanted the pastel again. Here’s the other’s catch. Sorry. Why were you Sorry. So he I don’t know if you were here when he said after the Jay’s one, I’m like, “Oh, I’m go.” Who’s they’ll be calling? I got to go have to go for a pint. Celebratory beverage. Oh, I can’t go. I gotta make lunch for the kids. Yeah. Yeah. And now he’s telling us that leftover bean salad. Yeah, cuz he Dad had to go have a pint. Dad did not have a pint, sadly. But dad did. You didn’t create meal either. The kiwi make the yogurt. No, I just put that all in the thing. Oh jeez. To clean the place, too. Laundry. Yes. Oh, what? Deciding to turn an event in Australia into a two week thing. Come on now. I’m not going to Australia for Yes. If I’m going to Australia, I’m going for a minimum of two weeks. probably four solo dad. Another person we know has been in out of town for an extended period of time without uh a return flight. I can’t really. Yeah. Is this part to do with hyping up that movie? The No. No. No. This isn’t a media run for the Bills love story. No, this is a Yeah, we’ll talk about it after the car wash. Isn’t that what it is? You go around, you talk to all the media outlets. It’s Hollywood. Then we’re going to Buffalo. We’re going to promoting Bill Maher and then Joe Rogan America. Yeah. Well, what Flames on home ice fall to the Winnipeg Jets by a score of two to one. Did they go to OT? I I thought they were going to I did too. Son of I was three with an empty netter. Those guys let me down. Five uh five minutes left. Say this. We’re going we’re going overtime for sure. But uh damn, a little twoon one Kyle Connor to Mark Shley back of the net. Made it two to one and they tucked that thing in. I said yesterday and I’m sticking to my guns. Dustin Wolf is the least of this team’s problems. And after having some games that were probably in the just okay category, I thought he was again their best player like he was in their only win of the season in Edmonton. I knew they’d play harder. Yes. And I knew they’d work harder and and put out a good effort. So I watched the Jay’s game. Yes, we knew how that was going to go. Yeah. I could only watch so many champagne soaked interviews before I jumped over to a one-1 tie midway through the I was amazed at how fast they put up the stands in the field. I thought that was tough. That’s good work. That was real high-end stuff that they were crying. It’s good stuff. Yeah, it was real. But I I did listen to you uh on your Afterburner Oh, yes. podcast. Yeah. So, uh, I feel like I’m well informed. You’re up to date on what took place. A lot of Jays in that postgame show to be honest. Oh, Cammy couldn’t wait to talk about the Jays. She had the highlights all ready to roll. She Okay, Jack, do you have the home run? Yeah. Well, there was only one goal that the Flames scored. Well, that’s that’s kind of the one it’s the one point that I made, and I’ll maybe throw it out there to the group here today. Feels like it’s a tall order for your goalie when you score one. Yeah, in order to win, he can’t really let any in. Hey, if you want to win in regulation, at least, you know. Is this team challenged to score goals? Yes. No. Were they last year? Early. Yes. Did we expect them to be challenged to score goals? Yes. Does your goalie have to be pretty much the best player for you to beat a good team if they’re on? Yes. It’s just early. I played against Hella Buck. He’s a good goalie. He’s a good goalie. He makes some good saves there late. He’s also huge. I don’t know how many are good saves versus just like, damn, there’s no room for that puck to go in. And it also just seemed like a constant fire drill around Wol’s net. It’s like, well, now I’ve lost my stick and I’m still making kick saves. And it’s like a it’s a [ย __ย ] pinball machine over here, guys. Could we clear a goddamn puck? Maybe once in a while. Um, I got a text from uh one Julian McKenzie, you may recall. Oh, yeah. The uh too too legit to kick. He dropped two kickers in our league. Yeah. Back to back. Yeah. Never have enough kickers. Can’t have enough. And he his thing was when did the Flames get this bad? I feel like I’m throwing him under the bus here, but he’s like, “Jesus, don’t can you get me up?” And it’s uh it’s like I think they’ve always been this bad. Yeah. It’s just right now the the puck’s really not going in. It’s never going to go in at an incredible rate, Harry. Right. But at this point, it’s not going their way. It is it is now six games in a row that they’ve lost. Now, over the course of a season, when you look at a six-game losing streak, a lot of teams will say, “That was the low point of our season.” You’re damn right it was. And right now, the Flames will say, “No, that’s pretty much our season cuz they’ve played seven games.” Oh. So, since they had the off the skate, high stick shouldn’t have counted, Steu Skinner gift. They’ve gone one goal, two goal, two goal, one goal, one goal, one goal. Don’t get smmy. Well, I’m just saying like they have not hit three goals since opening night when to be fair, they probably should have had zero. I feel like last year we had this conversation and they were still winning, but they they scored a bunch at the early part of the season. No, but there was I remember Pinder going we haven’t gotten to over three in a month since four of 82. They were three or less. But three seems like a tall task now. Last year three was like, “Okay, we can get to three, but the fourth is impossible.” This year, three only happened when trap it up. Trap your [ย __ย ] up. I mean, trapping doesn’t lead to goals is the problem. You can trap all you want. No, but you’re just you you have to sometimes listen, I am not a uh a bean salad guy. But when bean salad is part of your defense that you’re re relying on, when Jake bean salad is part of your trap defense, Jake bean salad. Uh that makes things difficult. It’s Yeah, that was a great defensive effort. Yeah, they held the Jets to two goals. That’s the team that won the West. You want to win that Except you you you didn’t didn’t. Last year we came in and suspected that the defense and the goalending was going to be an issue and a they’ll get enough goals and then it was oh boy they can score a lot of goals and then it started to regress and right you could see how that came to be. Now you’re trying to squint and see, okay, it’s the this they’re on track to be one of the worst offensive teams potentially ever at a one to two goal a night pace. Dean, how but the the hard part is now so how does it how does this improve cuz it won’t be this bad all year. There’s going to be stretches where they score and they win and you just know that’s going to happen. But it doesn’t feel like they’re I I don’t It was 33 shots. I don’t think Hella Buck at the end of the night was like, “Hey, I don’t know who we’re playing next, but I need that night off cuz I’m I got shelled tonight.” No, but he was good. Yeah, I agree though. He wasn’t like Yeah, they don’t create enough. They don’t finish enough. They don’t create enough. And it’s probably a function of having to be so good defensively that you’re trading off the chance for an oddman rush to trap it up. And I’m oversimplifying, but and again like who won this team would you write down in pen and say that guy’s getting us 30? Nobody. Can you show me the lineup? Like in pencil you could say maybe Cadre does it again. Maybe Coronado F. I don’t want to rely on Cadri at 35 or 36. And so that’s why it’s not in pen. They don’t have a guy you can put down for 30. Do you think they’re doing any hand ringing down at the I said it well I kind of brought up with you yesterday and I said it to Cammy last night but then so here’s another day. You’ve lost six in a row. What’s Huska? What are you are we playing music during practice and having cake? Remember was Are we lining up for like Jeff Ward playing ABBA at practice? Lighten the mood. Are we getting paddled before like I throwing a stick into the 10th row? Yeah. Crumple crumble. Crumbles in crumble. Crumble. It’s October 21st. It’s real early. You’re having to spin all of your your coaching po and techniques. Every night there’s a lineup tweak. Always a new pair here and a different wing combination there. He’s trying to shake some offense out. But it’s just like going to the chef and giving them shitty ingredients. You can’t make filet minion not I think you should take the coaching out of the coach’s hands and go into the room and say you guys write the goddamn lineup on. Yeah. Straight up. Figure out what you want to do. Pull names from a hat or flag or put the sticks in the middle. I don’t care how you could whatever. Whatever. We don’t have to have a Well, you don’t have a one, two, and one, two, three, four line, right? You have You have a second line of medicine. Yes. Do you think if Lombberg’s on the top line that or whatever you’re considering the top line is that it’s significantly handicapped? No. No, I say you get to the rink. Husk. Get to the rink. Sticks at center. Blindfold. One, two, three. That’s one line. Two, three. One, two, three. One, two, three. That’s four lines. That’s eight fingers, but four lines. And you have a little scrimmage. And uh buy some pizza. Yeah. Sammies. Love Sammy. And get the f out of there. Henley, you’re center tonight. Sorry. Those were just the forward. I didn’t do the D. I didn’t do the D. Yeah, those are just the forwards. Uh Cammy was asking last night, what do you do now with Sharon Goic? You lost. Do you Is there a lesson that’s been sent or a message that’s been sent? And you know, I just want to repeat myself. He’s he’s one of the few guys that you feel like might be able to score for you and you desperately need goals. You desperately need to score. Why am I on D? So I think you have it’s like okay play him on D with weaker. You’re back in. You got to get play on D with weaker. I don’t know that. And the other spurse the other wrinkle cuz Miro’s on waivers is that which Miro top four cheapest top four defenseman mirror a 78 Deiro on waivers. Uh the get last year’s first 30 October 21st they gave it a try. It got turn styly but it does lead the team at plus minus still. They didn’t put him on waiverss a month ago and they could have kept Slovia who’s in Colorado. Uh Pospus is going to rejoin this asset management. What’s Pospus going to do? Well, you got to find a spot for him now, too. That’s the problem. It’s like maybe you’re ready to put Sharon Go back in for somebody. Oh, okay. It’s a problem. How big a problem are we talking? Like if Husk is not losing sleep over this problem, he’s got to call me. I’m going to walk him off the ledge here. you you don’t have to walk the plank. Don’t lose any sleep over this. Put someone in the lineup. It doesn’t make a difference. Yeah, I agree. It’s just the problem is they’ve collected a ton of bottom six wingers. Yeah. And so now it’s just like which shuffle is going to be overslotted on the second line. This one or that one? I would love it. I would and I would do it and then I’d get fired cuz owners are too serious. I would actually go in there with the bingo machine with everyone’s number and the ball in there and have it pop. All right, you’re in and you’re out. Sorry. Under the B10, that’s the guys. Holy [ย __ย ] is this happen? Yes, this is happening cuz I don’t know what to do. You guys are terrible. G47, that’s Zary. Okay. Um, and B1 back Zary and Hubo. There’s the line. fun with it cuz it’s stressing out is not Oh god, where do I put Sherry go? Popcorn again. I don’t know. No, I’m not losing any sleep. It doesn’t matter. I’m just I’m sending Jack the uh the lines from last night. So, short of a bingo machine because do we have the bingo? I’ve always wanted to get a kino machine. I’ve always wanted to get I got the hand cranker one because when we had co you had to play bingo online with your family so we could do like a Okay, so number here number two is a kick in the ass or whatever and just kind of okay whatever you want to do with that bingo machine I20 Blake Coleman have a lot of fun with that. Yeah, again I think this is was said before the show. They have a lot of wingers and unless the NHL is there’s are there 30 teams looking for middle to bottom six wingers. So that’s there you go. I like this uh lineup card though. Yeah, it fits on the screen. Who did that? Uh Jack wasn’t Jack. You did. I didn’t make that. That’s great. It kind of has a retro feel to it. It kind of does. And you can see everyone. It’s good. So Kirkland at center. He came in as Sharon Govich went out. And then if pospil is soon to be back, assuming you want Sharon Govich and Pospasel in the lineup again, it’s not hard, but there are two men who will be coming out. Uh you can send Hanzik down and get him some minutes in the A. That’s fine. He doesn’t need waiverss. That’s not going to be a problem if he’s anti that move. I’m I’m the other way. Yeah, Farabby has been snake bit. I’d leave. Well, again, I’m using the bingo machine, so I don’t know who’s going in and out, but none of you are staying in cuz you deserve it. But you you told Husk to give you a call. Yeah. So, let’s just Hey. Hey, Red. It’s Husk. So, you you were saying that you like, what do I do here? Okay. So, what are my problem? What am I What am I dealing with? You want to get You’re probably going to want to get Sharon Govich back in and Pospel. All right. Sharon Govich and Pospus. Kirkland’s out. Who’s playing the middle? Zary because he wants to be a centerman. Okay. So Zary goes 4C. Yeah. And the other the other two uh can play with Frost and then scratch Hanza. Hanza comes out or Clapka. Yeah. Was there any passengers last night? Like that felt like a good team effort. Like was there anyone that was like ah this guy like have a seat. That’s the problem you have when you’re trying to bring someone in from the rafters is someone has to come out. Again not Husk’s biggest problem. His biggest problem is his team is not skilled enough to score much in this league. Well, if 11 didn’t have the C on his jersey and an extension, I’d consider sitting his ass, too. But you got You need centers. That’s the thing. Well, what are you talking about? We don’t Those are centers. How are they helping? Put Zary at center and Hanzik at center. Who What’s the difference going to be? We’re going to score less goals. You’re going to lose more draws for sure. And And you’re going to not have the puck as much. Oh, God forbid. Yeah. Well, I mean, look, I’m not saying these guys are playing well. I’m just saying the one area they’re flooded is wing, and the one area they’re have a der of is centers. So, that’s why Justin Kirkland’s in the NHL. How many teams does Justin Kirkland play center in the NHL? Lack of like a Yeah. A void. Yeah. So, get some of these dumbass, sorry, they’re not dumbass. Get some of these guys to be able to play center. Yeah. And so, we have too many winners. You just said I agree. So, my point would be if you’re going to send Hosic to the A, play the ass out of them at center ice. Now you and you might have something for the second half of the year. You said just more on Hanzik. Ryan had said send him down. You’re like no. You said no. I’m at the point where we’re still faking that we’re going to be good this year if we’re trying to put the best put the kids in the damn lineup. That’s what I’m getting at. If you don’t want to and if you want to pretend that you’re going to put a charge on and win 10 games in a row, okay, well that’s your prerogative. Go ahead. But you’re only you’re not going to hurt your playoff chances by playing Hanzik. And who’s the kid that’s already down there? Gridden. Yeah. Yeah. Or Karen’s. Yeah. Like you could definitely go way younger and it would not hurt your chances of getting McKenna. I’ll tell you that. Or make the playoffs because you’re not you’re not. It’s It’s not the odds. Do we have the odds guy? I just I got it in the pin report. We talked about on bet 365 that the team total for the season was around 83 and a half, 84, whatever. Different books, different spots. Uh they now uh they update these every night 77 and a half. Where do you think that ranks amongst the 32 NHL teams? 29th. It is tied for third from the bottom, which would be 29th30th. Them and Pittsburgh at 77 and a half. The only teams projected to get fewer points by the unemotional, unbiased sports book, Chicago and San Jose. Like, believe it or not, you are right in the thick of Mission McKenna right now. Don’t miss that. Don’t think you’re something you’re not. You are in the McKenna sweep stakes. Operate as such. So, to Rhett’s point, I understand coaches are paid to win. You just got a nice extension. Everyone in the organization has to understand that being bad for a short amount of time will make you much better in the long term. Picking 10th this year does not turn the ship around in time for a new building. That kid’s not in the NHL in two years. Picking first, second, or third, that kid might get a a season in the Saddle Dome before he goes to the new building. I I I don’t like I don’t disagree with it, but there is you still have to get to the bit of the lottery balls. But but it’s game seven. I know. Yeah, but you pissed them all away. So what? It’s not our fault. So we’re supposed to lie and say, “Oh, you guys are going to turn the corner. It’s just, oh, you guys are right on the cusp.” And and to flip that around, we talk about the 96 points they had. Tell me about their 50 and one start and those 11 points they got. Like if they don’t have those 11, let’s say they got six, we’re talking about a team that’s not even close to being in a tie breakoff, I guess. Just understand, I’m I’m not saying they’re better than they are. I’m just saying as the coach’s job is to try and win. Correct. You’ve played seven coaches. So, what do you do? Coaches and Sorry, I cut you off. Do you want to keep going? No, I You’ve got a locker room full of guys who are like, I don’t give a [ย __ย ] about a rebuild. Yeah, you’re right. You’re right. I want to beat the Habs tomorrow. Okay. Well, I don’t know how excited they are to be taps. Make it fun. And I’m not Yes, it’s a ridiculous and they’d never do it because it’s professional sports, but you know what they should do? They should bring the bingo thing into the room and do use it. Make it fun. Yeah. Because there’s nothing that’s going to rally these guys as far as a carrot or give them a carrot cuz the stick ain’t working. Yeah. It’s not going to work. They aren’t talented enough for a stick to work. It’s just keep beating the dead horse. Like, come on, hurry. We gota go. You better make it enjoyable for these guys to be at the rink. I think that’s part of it. And like a year ago, it was everything went great and then we’re 96, the whole thing. They were rallying cuz it was fun. Watching some of the watching Blake Coleman talk after a game. It’s dead weight, right? They they know. They know. Yes, they know. The deeper this trough gets, the sooner I think from Owner through to the AHL, they understand what the mission is this season. I understand if they’re not there yet. I get it. But you’ve scored more than two goals once and you should not have. It was a gift. And I said this before and I think it’s probably something to just be Craig Conroy, the GM, says some things and and does some things. Pay attention to what he’s doing more than what he’s saying because he’s gonna say the right things, right? We Oh, if we can add some scoring help, if we can get some player, he’s gonna say these things. That’s doing your job. If we could get some defense, we’d really like to help this team. We got to make a push. We want to make the playoffs. We think we’re a playoff. He is going to tell you these things. But he did not add a big name on July 1st. He like this. He knows what he’s got here. Yeah, he does. He knows what he’s got. The question I have is does the owner and but and that we don’t we don’t hear but it’s headed towards being so vividly clear unmistakable what they are. This franchise has never rebuilt by choice. They’ve only been forced into it because the team was so bad. And it appears that this season could go that way too. Very likely. They took two too many men on the ice penalties in the second period last night in a six, seven minute span. Well, don’t they call they went 0 for five on the power play. They scored one goal. Yeah, the game’s there if you’re get some more talent. But it’s just they got the Habs, then the Jets, Rangers, then the Rangers. We’re good on the road. The trough could get deep. Good. So what? Good. Then then they can be forced into some good decisions. Yeah. For the organization, like long term, that’s the best thing to happen. And by organization, I mean management and up. Make it crystal clear. We’ve got no options here, fellas. How’s it going to be going in Ontario once you’re done with the Rangers? How would you like to be in the bingo for McKenna and trade Anderson for another first and be like, “Yeah.” Okay. And have the chat with Coleman and have the chat with Codri and move Hanley at the deadline and have like and and and Yeah. And this team in the spring might be fun. I don’t know that they’ll be structured and good, but like you bring up a breast, you have a grid in Andrew Basha, maybe you’re ready to play. Like maybe Hanzix’s in the middle. Like you can start to see this roster turning over because for all the talk of a rebuild, like they really didn’t sell a single piece until it was that one year where it was Lindholm, Tanv, Hannifan, Zidorov, like to your point, they stood pat. They didn’t sell last year. Status quo. It’s the same rosters as last year minus the backup goalie. Yeah. And they they did what they usually do, which is get to the deadline where if you were going to sell anything, you probably aren’t going to because you think you’re a playoff. Sorry, Jack. Can you throw that back up? God, Jack just gets so fancy pants. Well, he wants to get out of here. Guess. So, yeah, it’s the Habs who are one of the They are rolling right now. They’re offensively gifted. They are uh they’re having fun. They’re having fun. Uh the Jets will play Thursday and then Friday. So the Flames will go in there catching them on a backto back I guess is maybe not Hella how you would frame that. I don’t know what the Rangers are. It seems like they’re there’s some turmoil there as well as they win and lose and the they’re taking a lot of heat for being three four and one. Yeah. It’s because all their losses are at home that’s why. And then it’s it’s a road trip into Toronto. And yeah, I I it doesn’t matter. Schedule is a schedule and there’s good games coming up and some But if you’ve had looking for tapins when you’re in the last place, good luck. There aren’t any. If you’ve had if you had your your seven or eight game losing streak in your first nine or 10 games, they might do it twice, right? I it’s not I know it’s disheartening and it’s going to make for one hell of a long season, but where are you expecting this to go? Like long seasons end with high draft picks, boys. I’m ready for one. It’s like I said to the kids when they were trying out for their teams, Dean, I said, listen, you go out there, you give her your all, you do your best, whatever happens happens. There’s no downside, Dean. You know why? Because if you get cut from that team, you get dad to coach you. So if they play bad rats coming in, that’s called a balance. Like that that’s a balancing act, Dino. Mhm. Eevee Stevie. And they work their tails off to make those kids motivated after that. Yo, my dog. Yeah, I got called out on that the other day. You lied to me about the dog. Well, you did. I mean, I said prove it. That is circumstantial. Time is doesn’t stand still. There’s still no smoking gun. Where’s the recorded it? Oh, well, you know, um Zayn Perk got hit again last night. Get out of the way, kid. Along the boards again. I don’t I The Sisons hit going back to the game Vegas played here. Caught him at the at the blue line. Did we think that was a Is that a He kind of gave it to the old chicken wing. Maybe a little bit, but maybe that’s what you do to kind of help it along. He also pre What’s he doing? He’s just the head’s down there, right? What’s the noise he made? Well, he’s looking at the puck down there. Okay, that’s fair. I’m not saying I just I think smarter. What are you trying? You were just off mic. That’s all. He was off killed explain. Yeah, I because I didn’t think it was a egregious or dirty hit. And last night, Neidon needer comes in and finish finishes him along the boards again. I think maybe Zayn was a little unaware and uh left the game, did come back, two hits in three games. Yeah. Yeah. It’s a young man finding his way. I don’t know if is this you have to learn how to take a hit cuz you’re talking that you’re going to get hit. You better learn who you’re out against. Yeah, at all levels we don’t we’ve talked about it. There doesn’t seem to be as much physicality or big hitting anymore. Tell that to my kid. And then and then in I would guess in junior where he’s so many levels skillwise. I’m talking about the one in No, I I Yeah, I know what you’re talking. Okay. Uh oh, you’re talking back to back to Pre back to me, Rat. Um, do you worry at all? Cuz all it would take if it’s Tom Wilson and not Nino Netherritider. If it’s somebody who’s looking to make an impact and I’m going to I’m going to finish this hard. I worry about a lot of things, Dino, and this is not one of them. Honestly, the whole thing about this season with Perk is it’s a guy that should be in the A that’s not allowed to go to the A and so he’s going to figure out what works and what doesn’t in this league. And he’s smart. We know that. I would expect him to figure out time and space are different in this league. You weren’t going to get hit there in the O, you are in the NHL. If it happens every third game, I’ll be worried. But he’s figuring out how what works and what doesn’t here. Yeah. Per Gustafson used to get crushed in Florida all the time as a 26 year old. So it doesn’t matter if you’re young or old. You just got to get used to leaked, you know. Figure it out. Figure it out. Better to not take those hits. Figure it out, dude. I’m looking at the goals for this is very fair. What? just seven. What do you look how Yeah. How How much time can you spend looking at all of the goals? Four. Well, the Rangers are second last in the league. They’re even two goals a game. The Flames are almost uh at one and a half. I I still don’t know what what are you trying to find solace that things are going to come around? Are we some weirdo scientificy [ย __ย ] that’ll tell us that Well, they’re not getting any puck luck. That’s awesome. And the goals against and the Frank of beans is uh Yeah, the the expected bean salad per 60 is a little high. No, they’re going to more of these pucks are going to go in, but just they they might get to two and a half a game, but they’re not like they’re not a going to be a top third 25 in the league scoring team. They don’t have the horses. They didn’t last year. They finished 29th last year out of 32 teams. Bean salad’s going to stick around for a little bit, I think, whenever things aren’t going well. What is a photo? I’ll tell you what, last night. A lot of [ย __ย ] bean salad going on out there. I was watching champagne and filet minion and I switched over to the flames game and it was bean salad. Bean salad. That’s that was my night. Weirdo scientificy [ย __ย ] Don’t you have any of that talking about? Yeah. The country’s not going to be stuck at zero goals with the zero shooting percentage. We know that he’s going to get his 20. He was sure shooting a lot yesterday. That’s what you got to do. Three minutes. I saw who uh Zayn Perk, you’re saying. Oh, Godrey. But honestly, we’ve sat here for three years talking about you probably need to look in the mirror and be honest about what you are. This is your chance. somebody on the like I guess it was last night on the uh on the post game was kind of talking about that they’ve got young players but there’s no game breakers and you saw that even like with the Jets last night it’s tie game five minutes left we got a chance Connor Shley bang game breakers yeah high-end talent guys that can change the game with just like that and yeah does not feel like the flames are close to having that maybe it’s a goal post. Maybe you get a shot on net. Yeah. And some posts will start going in, but you’re still going to be incredibly you’re still hindered. I don’t even want to say it. I’m getting cheeky. But McKenna is the greatest thing that could ever happen. And I I understand you need to win a lottery. And I understand that Chicago and Pittsburgh and San McKenna. Maybe it’s the next best off. Yeah. are pretty. You want a 6’5 right shot top pair D? Yeah, I do. Let’s go. But point being, like if you can start the wheels turning a little sooner on this, it’s going to help your odds. It’s not guaranteeing anything. It doesn’t make things simple, but you basically want to have the safest bet you’ve got at getting a good player at the draft in June. So if there’s a deal that’s fair for Rasmus in December, do you need to wait three months? You don’t. Yeah, that’ll be like deletion is addition long term. As soon as you start pulling away these guys that are NHLers, that’s going to hurt you in the point column because they’re not going to, you know, win one out of every seven. They’ll be better than that. Nobody’s this bad. The Sabres tanking for McDavid weren’t this bad through and a if you want to pro rate seven games over the whole year. Well, what’s 71 points? Is that what they have Matt now? 77 and a half was the bet 365 total. And they’ve got How many points do you get for a win? You get two. So 35 times two is 70. Yeah. Are they going to get 35 wins? And no. Jack made a noise. I don’t know if you came over the mic or not. Honestly, now is not the time, right? They they they’re not scoring. They’re Well, I mean, this this could end truly this could be the worst part of their season. They may not lose six in a row. Get worse than this. What are you talking about? I’m just You mix in some W. Maybe you lose four of six. If Jack has the schedule there, it’s like Nashville, Chicago. Like, there’s some teams that aren’t division leaders coming up. If you have the effort you did last night and the goalending you had last night and it’s not Kyler how hell at the other end, those could be wins. You’re going to win some games, but don’t go getting yourself in the mucky middle again. Get ahead of this. Like Flyers, Predators, Blue Jackets, Black, that’s four in a row. Those are all winnable games to this team in the sense that if you have the better goalie, you outwork them, you can win those. You can outwork and have the better goalender in the games before that and still lose because you just they’re so much more talented than you. The talent gap is much smaller with the Preds, Flyers, Blue Jackets, or Blackhawks. Plus, we’re going to be in Nashville for that one. They’re going to be They’re going to be so excited to have us. They’re going to be so excited. Be so pumped to We is going to come and give Red a hug. He loves hugs. Wearing wearing our breazeers and cowboy hats. Can’t wait. Can’t wait. Still in our Halloween costumes from the night before. The other thing that tomorrow could be, we know what the Habs experience is like at the dome at the best of times. Now the Flames are on a skid and the the Hab fans are excited. Like last night, the Blue Jays got a bigger roar than the Flames did at any part of Not even close. This is this the hard it could be what I’m saying is it could be bordering on kind of embarrassing morale busting for the Flames. People as fans need to stop and I maybe stop’s not the one shot. Don’t do you want whatever. I’m just saying that we’ll be smmy and we can laugh about it but don’t go to the dome and throw a jersey on the ice. It’s what they are. Yeah. Yeah. It’s what they are. Let’s think about with the our eyes wide open, our brain actually working. Well, they don’t score. They’re not offensively gifted. They’ve got no high-end talent. They’re getting older with a bunch of guys. They’ve got some real good second, third line guys. Anderson wants out of here. They’re playing them with Bean or Hanley or whoever else. Like, recognize what the team is and don’t don’t piss and moan about it. I think there’s such a huge portion of this fan base that is ready to sacrifice. I know, but that’s the that’s where it gets shitty as a player and as a fan because it’s we’re seven games in kind throwing in the towel, however you want to describe it. Don’t go to the dome and boo. Don’t go to the Yes, it’s your right to to cheer or or criticize, but I just This isn’t the players. I’m with you. You know, go ahead, boot, don’t throw [ย __ย ] in the ice. Don’t be wearing Yeah. This is not a team that should be at a, you know, tremendous levels. This isn’t last year’s Rangers, right? This isn’t a group that should that won the President’s Trophy that looks like underperforming. Yeah, they are what they are. And this might be the best thing for you as a fan. I think most people get that. I really do. But you question paper bags. Uh, yeah. Don’t wear a early early for paper bags early. No, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s not embarrassing. It might be disappointing. It might be, you know, darn. This is a lost season. Except if you win the lottery. Yeah. When game 82 is over, except that in three years if you’re significantly better because you didn’t have a good season, just don’t be ignorant about it. Like, and we will be because we have to talk. We’re [ย __ย ] We you know what we need to do truly and you brought it up earlier and I think it’s great. It’s all coming together now. You’re an idea guy. Idea. We do need to invest in a bingo machine. Yeah. Because with the draft lottery and all that, we’re going to be doing so much bingo ball talk and everything. We should really get a bingo ball machine. Jack, run that up the flag pole. See if the bosses we can pull off $7. See if we can get that purchase. Is there some sort of a Kinsman group that’s got an old one you’re trying to get rid of? Probably. Great idea. A kino thing from channel 8 20 years ago. There’s some some uh community charity group out there because yeah, there’s probably one that’s sitting there. Are we gonna got to get rid of this goddamn But I actually mean it. Like I I know that we have fun and we take cheap shots. You call whatever you want. I don’t care that they’re bad. Would I prefer they’re good? Yeah, but I prefer they’re really good. And in this midling good in this year, your actual big picture preference is to be god awful and get McKenna. I’m sorry. That’s it. That would that this is the best case scenario. Two years, great. The next two years, get studs. Get studs. High end. Keep picking, grabbing first rounders. Keep getting rid of guys that are on the wrong side of 30. Keep amassing young talents. Keep having strong drafts. Keep developing kids in the A. And finally hit a superstar at the top of the draft. Finally, stop giving out friend contracts. But I’ll take a job if you because you’re a friend. I get it now. I know it’s funny that works double standard of sorts. H love to work for you guys. Be great. Not sure. You say a lot of things. What? Just on this on this show. Well, it’s what we paid.

This is much like the I’m sorry. This is much like the flames in this season where you have to accept what it is and live with it. I’m at my salary cap. I can’t No, no, no, no, no. You have to realize that you have to sacrifice now for the long-term good. You’re not going to be able to live with yourself if you don’t go. And who the f cares? They might never get back in your lifetime. How old are you? Uh, I forget. 44. So when was the how many years ago was the last time? Last time in the World Series I 12. There’s no way you’re surviving. Correct. At the incredible rate that you’re going at, Harry, to see them go again. I don’t dis This is your one and only opportunity. I am at peace with being there. You’ll be at peace when you’re going into ground and they’re like, “This idiot didn’t even go to the World Series.” You be laying there for three grand. Step it up. If I could have only step it up. Get one of those rich assw white friends of yours that lives around here and have them get the jet fired. Let’s go. Are those the type of beans? Like a broad bean. They’re beige, but they’re broad.

The wild card round the DS. It’s the World Series. I had four people ask me last night. Four. Different people, different cities, different modes of transportation, different games. Get in your rig and just hit the road, man. Which is closer. Like, listen. Drive in LA probably. 10 hours. I don’t like you. I get that. Yeah. I like when shitty things happen to you. I don’t I You’re the reason I can’t cheer for the Blue Jays in this series. Like, you understand that? And even as I sit here, dude, you need to go. All right, Joe [ย __ย ] Carter. Like, that could be something that happens here. And it’s trending that way. They certainly feel like a team of destiny, don’t they? They’re They are. Yeah, there’s there’s some You can’t get stomped. You’re certainly Do you want to go in? We’ll just go Sunset Gate A on Ben Scully Boulevard. 23 hours. It’s less than a day. You and three buddies road trip. Are you kidding me? How far from Nashville to Oh, not close. No, that’s across continent. Cuz you’ll already be be across. Is it called the Sky Dome? Rogers Center. Oh god. Super happy for Rogers that Blue Jay speak. Yeah. For Atkins and Chapyro and Rogers. It’s just so heartwarming that they’re all being able to enjoy together. Uh center parking. Center parking. Well, let’s do the pitter report while he’s uh Oh, it’s uh it’s about eight hours further to Toronto. That’s what I figured. But Canadian dollar, I don’t know that that’ll matter in the sense that it’ll be very expensive in Toronto. But if you’re paying for gas, you know how much gas is in LA? You got to fill up before you cross the border. California. Yeah. Take that I-15 South or whatever it is. When you said you had people reaching out, were they saying, “We’re going. Are you coming?” Or were they just asking, “Are you going to go?” I’m going to Toronto. Game blank. Are you there? Hey, I’m going to LA for games blank. Are you there? Do both. Do what I did. Toronto and like Boston, New York. Yeah, absolutely. Toronto. LA. Do it. What are you going to do? Just put my kids in a bunker. Leave them with a bunch of bean salad. Let them rock. Yeah. Just pour a bunch of beans in your kitchen. All right, guys. You want to play a Roblox brain rod? Get at it. Here’s your iPads. There’s the charging cord. Here’s your kids for what’s coming. If he’s that bad of a Apple, he’s going to be have to learn to be locked up. Yeah. What was I doing? Oh, tickets. I’ll buy you a ticket. I’ll pay for your ticket. It is one of those things. It That’s gonna be a thousand. It will find a way. You just find a way to do it because it’s not gonna happen. You’re talking me into it. Like you realize there are Cubs fans that went hundred years. Do you think it like Jack Jack is a Pirates fan? Seattle has never gone to the World Series ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. You know this these Oh, maybe. Hey Jack, how many times have you seen the Jays in the World Series? Zero. Like it’s just cuz you weren’t watching or No, I just wasn’t live. Yeah, you were dead. I was dead. Yeah, this guy. This guy here is dead. That’ll be me the next time they’re in the World Series. I You got to go. You got to go. You’re an idiot. I always knew you were an idiot. We’ve always all known I was an idiot. Just once. There are some obstacles. The kids were flying to LA on the 5th of November. That’s like a what the hell in life isn’t an obstacle. You got to get up. You got to make solutions. Bean salad for your kids lunch. Life presents problems. And we’re problem solvers. Let’s blow up the schedule. Cuz even even the wife, my wife, even the wife would have to say, you know what? There comes a point where I don’t care. I don’t have to. Yes, we’re married, but that doesn’t give you It’s not You’re not reigning over me. Understand this. Yeah. Like I feel like she and I are on the same level. We both hate you and don’t want you to have good things. [ย __ย ] but not really supportive of Could we make that smaller? Uh, there is a better version of that without the big banner at the top. I sent one this morning. I cut all that other Capital One [ย __ย ] out of there, Jack. For [ย __ย ] sakes. Jack, take it easy. So, they’re in Toronto Friday, Saturday, off day, Sunday, and Friday, Saturday. Three in LA, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Where would you rather go? LA. Really? Yes. Why? Um, I don’t know. That’s a stupid answer. I was just in C. I like the the You know what it is? This fan base is so huge that you don’t there’s not a hundred people that go to the visiting park. He likes to be an [ย __ย ] Yeah, he’s so used to play the heel. He wants to be a heel. That’s the only reason. Yeah, but what is this? And who’s the sponsor of this? Oh, is this World Ser I’d go to Toronto, too. I would definitely go to Toronto. I think Toronto makes more sense for you if you can get away. You have done it. Yes. Do you roll the dice on Friday, October? Well, you can’t because you’re going to Nashville, I guess. This makes no sense. You told me they were in Oh, they’re in LA on Friday. 232 here. They start in Toronto, three in LA. I know that home team’s on the our bosses, whoever these people are, and even if they exist, I don’t know that there is, but they would love to have some boots on the ground. They have some intrepid reporting. So, I would run this up. They’ve got Nate Burlson or some ex Blue Jay who’s a podcast, that guy doing a thing now. And in fairness, if you are going to remain on our Nashville trip, games six and seven, if necessary, are off the table. You’ll be in Nashville, which gives you five. Three in LA, two in Toronto. And to be fair, if I was going to pick a game, I’d want one of the first five because it’s not a guarantee every series is a seven gamer. You could have a ticket for a game six or seven that might not happen. You still want to go to the World Series. I think you need to find a way to get to LA for games four and five. Yeah, my wife gets back the day of game four. There you go. So, there’s a small window here. You fly out Tuesday. Get to LA for games. A week today. You’re on a plane. Are they in Toronto to start? Yes. Straight to Chavez Ravine. No, no, that’s Will Vince Skully Drive, right? Yeah. That too. Then straight from LA to Nashville. Have to rejig that flight. They can. That’s what people do. Okay.

I often act like I know whatever that was. It was spot on. Incredibly profound. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And for more profound time report, we do it for Village Honda.

They recommend you follow the speed limits in whichever state you may be in and or province.

Let’s start with our friends at Flames Nation recapping the action from the dome last night. We all sat here and said they will be better against Winnipeg. They were, but six losses in a row, have not passed two goals in any of those games. Do you think it would feel longer in the middle of the season losing six or at the start? I think the startifies everything. I feel like it’s gone by quickly though. I guess maybe we’re distracted by Yeah. Yeah. I think it feels longer mid-season January, February, there’s less going on. Yeah. Yeah. This Oh, what is it? Have they Yeah. The flames start season started already? Yeah. You think about post Super Bowl cold. You got nothing to do but watch these damn games. They drop six. You’re like again it’s dark. Yeah. Yeah. I’m with you. The old season is a decent amount of six. A six game losing streak. You like six is uh it’s not 13, but it’s uh nothing to thumb your nose at. I wanted to ask you this the other day. I want to ask before I forget. What was the worst team you were on? And like what did it feel like going to work? That team where 13 losses in a row. What year was it? January. I think it was 99 maybe. No, 97 98. So the finals my first year, lost to the Rangers my second year and missed the playoffs my third year. They fired Doug Mlan early on for god knows what reason. And Brian Murray came in as GM and took over as GM and coach. He wasn’t stressed at all, I bet. And she was a [ย __ย ] [ย __ย ] Mhm. And you’re just discouraged and you can tell that you want to believe. You’d like Yeah. to believe, but you can look at the standings go where? Was it John Madden? Like this is not happening. You are what your record says you are. That is the other thing with this team is yeah 2-1. You were close. You could have bounce, but it doesn’t feel like they’re close to being a playoff team or Oh, they can win a game. They’re going to win some games for sure. They are. Yeah. Not enough or just the right amount if you ask us. side of things. Oh, you hate saying goodbye to old friends. Someone dead. This guy here is dead. Uh Denil Miro Manadov placed on waiverss yesterday according to James Myrtle, the athletic friend of the show. Love you, James. Friend of the show. Red text last night. Jimmy who? Uh this is top four78 Denil Mirrammanov who was not placed on waiverss when Ilia Sloviov was. They must hate Salov if they I think they actually kind of like them. Doesn’t make sense. Well, did they f up? I think yes. It’s a minor. Not as No, but like did they actually oops like did they send it in and go wait let’s take that back? like like I wonder did they think they had a trade on the hook for this guy or I mean we were having some fun with you but throughout last year it just this it seemed very clear that this is not a player who’s yeah you had to give it a try and they did and it was passable at times then clearly not good enough to the point where Joel Hanley played the last twothirds of the season and this guy rotted and when it was passable it was clearly a nod to McKenzie Weaguer It was not because he’s suddenly a top four guy. It was just how McKenzie Wager was able to keep this guy’s head above water. Same thing for Joel Hanley. He went to free agency, did not get paid to be a top four guy. Yes. Yeah. I I don’t know what the the story is. Maybe they were fine with potentially losing Slovio or they thought they had a trade, but maybe they think Slovia’s [ย __ย ] It all kind of ends up where we’re at here. I think they hoped he would sneak through. And to be fair, when it’s Colorado that claims him, he almost got through. They would have been one of the last teams in waiver. Screw you, Joe. Stealing our guys. Yeah. Oh well. Thanks, Joe. If that’s our biggest issue, and it’s not. Happy trails, Denal. Godspeed. You know what? Lifty will get him going. Dave Lifet. Yeah. So, you’re saying he’s not going to get claimed by another NHL? I don’t feel there’s much. I don’t know who’s dinged up on the right side and if this guy’s a placeholder for bit or not, but I think if everyone’s healthy, he’s not. But yeah, maybe there’s a team down two right shot guys that could use a month. I don’t know. They’re already not playing Pahal. Oh, yeah. I’d prefer PL a lot to this, right? So, I don’t know. I’m talking about other teams. He’s on way other teams will have the chance to get him for free or whatever. 50 grand for a claim and a roster spot. That’s it. One of your contracts, whatever. We’ll keep moving. Uh Pike pointed this out. Uh if it felt like there was a lot of saves on the uh penalty kill last night. It’s a Pike point. Uh boy was it ever. Holy Saint 20 power play shots against. Five more than they ever allowed in a single game. Five on four. Now there is another game where they had five on threes and a four on three. But point being if it felt like Dustin Wolf made a lot of saves on the PK last night, he did. This feels like some of that weirdo scientificy [ย __ย ] That’s right. Did you write that down? weirdo scientific [ย __ย ] I showed you the projection 23 PP against Detroit 12v5 V I did I I didn’t sign up for algebra buddy take that wrench I think Pike’s point was that a lot of the shots the Jets were getting were coming on the power play five on five you just said that well then you want to know what kind of power play was five on three why are there so many shots you know I get when you say power play I understand what it is when one team has more players on the ice than the other team what’s natural stat trick thanks that’s a website that does all the that’s the scientific Yeah. Uh schedule real quick. Uh next three, take a peek. Jack, let’s get out of here. Go for a drink. Yeah. Schedule maker must been having a drink here. This has been a tough start for the Flames. Canadians. I’m fine with it. This is perfect. This is perfect. Worst thing to happen this year was with them starting 4 and0. If we’re being honest with ourselves long term, God, that’d be a nightmare. Friday night in Winnipeg. I think it’s a Winnipeg early before the uh minus 30th wind. Good stuff. Good idea. And then the Raj in Calgary on Sunday. I’ll be at the next two home games. Really? I don’t know what I’m doing, but I’m supposed to be there. Yeah. Writing your name on young ladies bazers. What’s the story here? Oh god. Could only. Oh god. No. On their bazers. Signing bras. You know pro alete stuff. I’m not a pro alete. So Oh, he once was. He once was a good signer last night. Haven’t had that offer as a podcaster. Uh, five games. There they are. You see them. That Vegas Carolina one we hyped as being well gez. Two of the best teams. Vegas continues to roll. Another goal for Jack Eel. He is absolutely running away with the scoring lead. Albeit yes very early. Habs score four. Remember that friends. They’re top seven in the league in goals four per game. And the Rangers lose at home because that’s what they do. LOL. 0 and four at home. Three and0 on the road. Is Seattle having a good year, too? Decent start. I think they’re coming back to us pretty quick. Asian. They’re 3-1 and two. Yeah. So, they’re three and three with some loser points. Uh, but yes, much better than probably Jack. I’m not sure if he picked up on Dora. He also picked Buffalo to be better than Montreal. Early. Very early. Very early. Montreal was in last place in the NHL in November last year. What the hell’s that got to do with that? Buffalo needs to be that team for me to not look like an idiot. Unbold predictions, which is obviously very dumb to begin with. Check this out from the ABS. They’re going to wear these seven times this year. It’s the 30th anniversary of the team moving from Quebec City to Denver. Oh, I like these. These are sexy as hell. Oh, hey, that’s Calgary boy. He’d look good in some red in the new building, wouldn’t he? Show some other guys, shall we? There’s the See the whole catalog. Now you can see the shoulders. Look. See the good stuff. Those are great jerseys. They are great jerseys. That’s not a powder blue. Is that a royal blue? No. What is it? It’s not navy. No, that’s a great blue. It’s a great blue. That is a great blue. My boy blue. Tonight’s schedule. Lots of games. Want to pick one or not? Smacker. Pantos. Marand. Oo, a couple teams that got a win. Bruins, Edmonton, and Ottawa. We hate cropping things for sure. Mhm. Big time. Like I get it’s the NHL schedule. I know it’s today’s I’ll crop it better next time. That’s on me. Half the page. Why do they put the word schedule so massive? What’s and then and then the games that matter. They make they shrink. Schedule. It’s like we can’t send an email, Jack. Tell him to get there. Tell Gary to get his [ย __ย ] together straightened out. Let’s go to baseball. It was incredible. We haven’t even talked about baseball of history last night. We’ve all Canadian history was made. That is correct. MLB history was made as well. Let’s remove the broadcast audio and listen to 45,000 people in a two-run game with the winning run at the plate and the tying run at second base. People forget he was punked in Seattle. They cheered cuz they hate him. No, you’re talking to us against This smartphone watching audio only part of the broadcast talking Touch them all, George. You’ll never hit a bigger one. Uh, incredible. Act like you’ve been there. Jumping around all excited. Game’s not over. It’s not like it was a walk-off, right? Oh my god. So this is wild. The Jays have a walk-on in the World Series. Joe Carter. The Jays have a home run seventh inning or later in the wild card they did in extra innings with Edwin against the Orioles in 16. Jose Batista’s bat flip was a decisive game five in the DS in the seventh inning. And last night again late seventh inning in the championship series. That’s all four rounds of Major League Baseball playoffs. They’ve hit a home run that decided the series at home and probably all those magical moments are over. So, no need to go to any World Series games. I’ve been talking to other ideas. Smarter people than me have stepped in. Now, I saw some Do you walk Springer? No. No. Because then you put Vlatty closer to coming up. You don’t want Vlatty more than you want Springer. Just pitch better. Yeah, that was not supposed to be cutting into his barrel right down the pipe. Yeah, we love the art, but make it sports. This guy never misses. Yes, we do. That’s great. I can’t get enough of him. That’s guido there. Yeah. Do we have the David Ortiz Cancun? Please tell me we have it because I sent it to Jack, but we we’re now at 26. We need big Poppy here cuz Poppy of course did the die Yankees lose. He always does. I’m sorry, Dino. He’s a Red Sox legend. Loves seeing the Yankees lose. He had the thing where Yankees, you’re going to Cancun. So Jay’s win postgame on the Fox broadcast last night. We know that there is a group that is going to Cancun today. Jay Buunner. Look at these lights popping. Griffy, Edgar, Martinez, Ichro. When did we get a disco check in here? Mike Cameron, Louis Soho. These lights are really cool. L Pinelloo. Where are they going? Poppy. Cancun. But it’s time to celebrate because my rooms in Cancun, Poppy. Ego Martinez going to Cancun. Randy Johnson. Non Shorton. Jay Buunner. Jay Buunner. Jamie Moyer. Jamie Moyer. Do we have the Wow. We have the sombrero. We got cigars. Okay. Great. Salute to them. Come on, guys. Salute. Salute. Salute. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. Here we go. You don’t know what I don’t know what’s in there. Cancun. Enjoy. It’s quite a bit he’s got. Is he doing a good job? I think he’s doing a great job. Are we enjoying is the baseball coverage? It’s certainly not Shaq. And A-Rod’s a dud. Is he? He’s a loser. No one ever liked A-Rod. Like he’s he’s hell of a ball player, but I mean he’s Yeah, he’s a loser. Uh Jeter obviously is the consmate pro and him on a panel with Ortiz who hates the Yankees and him being Mr. Yankee. There’s some nice friction there. There’s some Yeah. But yeah, but everyone loves Poppy, but it’s not as fun as But I don’t Yeah, they’re trying. I give the That’s a fun bit. You’re trying. Yes. Like maybe get to it quicker, but it was long and you played it all. Lupanella back to back. J Buer Jamie Moyer. I like just listen to talk. I love it. Very good. Uh Jay’s postgame. They have the nightclub going. loves this average the new renovations of this. Where is this? And you’re not going. Is this at 11 in Miami? No, this is their dressing room. What? The fellas are fired up. Vegas club. Bit of a different vibe. Yeah. When they did the Renos, they definitely upgraded the uh the locker room. That ain’t the 9293 locker room. And you’d get right in there. Oh, I would not be allowed down there. Sorry, Jack. I need to uh I got to go down and celebrate with the fellows. I’m calling in a favor from Ardan’s dwelling. I got to get down there. Uh M’s postgame was a little different. Somber group. They knew how close they were. They blew the 20 lead. They blew the 3-2 lead. Uh this is Brian Woo who was an allstar. Came in off the IIL and worked out of the bullpen in the series. Having gone further than any other team in franchise history. That legacy is Yeah, that’s uh one of his teammates screaming in the background if you missed that. Yeah. Why do I think that’s further than any other team in franchise history? I was probably thinking about that lead they had late in the game or your Josh Naylor like how much more do I have to do for you donkeys? I had like a hit every at bat this series for giving up a home run. World Series odds Dodgers heavy favorites got and that is no indictment of the Toronto Blue Jays. It is all about Otani, Betts, Freeman, Kershaw, like all stars everywhere seemingly. And you see how they their celebration after rather muted after a sweep of the Brew Crew. Fly out to right to end the series. Just kind of throws the the game-winning ball at the crowd. Hey, congratulations. Yeah. Back to Well, we went last year, so and the year before. Yeah, we’re and at 3. I don’t know that they were surprised they got there. Not a lot of tension in that series. I was hoping the Brewer could put up a better fight. They did not. Jay’s are only slight dogs for game one being at home. But in the series, Dodgers, you’re going to have to drop 220 to make a 100. That’s a huge favorite for a World Series and rightfully so. Jays do have home field by virtue of one more win. And we’re doing it again, boys. We’re doing it again. Game one, Friday at Greta. Doors at three. First pitch shortly after six. You need a ticket for this. I’ve sent Jack the link. He will put it in the show description. It is a free ticket. We just need to get control of numbers because it is going to be bonkers.

Is that what we’re uh Well, he owns a lot of HClad. No. And I don’t know how much he’s sold since we last checked, but he basically knew that they would get relegated if he didn’t play for them and thus continued to play. What a beauty. Look at that legend. Remember when Denil Mirmanov was leading a bad team in plus minus? Yeah, Joerger’s here in Calgary where he lasted like two weeks. Led the team in plus minus. He was so redfaced.

I thought we were just going to say we did picks and then carry on. Boom. Walk us through your picks. All right. Got 10 minutes. It started great because remember the Bengals? Yes. Thursday. On Thursday five and a half. Uh, I’m not. Boy, the Dolphins won in hindsight, right? That’s the thing about hindsight. It can uh be the 2012 that time machine. You still got to keep tinkering. Uh, Bears, Seahawks. Yeah, Buccaneers disappointing last night. Yeah, Lions look dominant. Rushed them. Yeah, they lose Mike Evans again. Broken collar bone. So, he is done. Could have been there, Mike. Uh, Commanders quarterback gets injured. No, Debo. They weren’t close. Cards, Giants, Bengals. Yeah, Jags. You know what? You know what it was? Part of this was it was just if I have a chance, I’m going to plug my nose and take some gross teams. That’s where the Dolphins and Jags and Jets fell in. And both teams got obliterated. Uh certainly the Jags and Jets. Uh Chiefs covering 12. Nicely done. By about 19. They covered that. Yep. Yeah. Uh Chargers. Woof. Woof. And the Titans didn’t work out. Yeah. Eagles 49ers. So eight and seven over 500. 500. It’s a bounce back. Huge bounce back week. Big bounce back week. We’re going to take it. Feeling strong going into week eight. Are you going to have to pick them all from now on? No, we’re going to Now we can shake it up a little bit. See, I got 14 wins under the belt. I see what he’s doing here. 14 to lead the pack. Excited for the upcoming week. I don’t trust what Jack is up here. I audited this morning. This is being BS. Did you because we have fully audited. I want to go back to the start. It’s all on the internet, right? Go get it. So, we all had How did I Tennessee? You’re going to new coach. Oh, new coach. Yeah, not really. And it’s the seven We’re the Patriots 7 point favorites on the road. It’s Yeah, Kabby was made a really good point on Friday. He said, “Look, like the move is to fade us. Don’t get mad. Just fade us.” Yep. It’s, you know, this show is about entertainment, right? How how fun is it if we just win all the time? I mean, if you’re telling us I would prefer it. I think I’d enjoy it, actually. I like rubbing people. Boy, the Raiders are awful. Awful. The Jags got their doors blown off. Bucks Jags were coming along. Wasn’t that the misconception that we all believed for a while? Yeah, you guys made some bad picks. I don’t know why I picked the Jets. I don’t know either. I forgot that video ride of that kid. I’m going to grab that. The Jets fan. We can close on that. That’s good. Boy, the Jets are bad. Real bad, Dean. Real bad. Real bad. Real bad. Real bad. Like across the board. So the Dolphins across the board. The the ones that we lost weren’t nip and tuck. No, they weren’t really. There’s a lot of blowouts this week. The Denver game was the game of the week. They had the huge comeback. We’re down 18 nothing, like 30 some points in the fourth quarter. Impressive stuff. Well, you guys got to start asking before we pick the Chargers. This team’s so fraudulent until they’re healthy. Yeah, cuz you’re doing so well. Yeah, we got to ask you. Nine and 13. Just about the Chargers. Oh, if I need to know about the Bills, I talked to Rhett. Do you think we should start? Did you see Josh wearing the Blue Jays? You into it. What a guy. Austin Matthews is wearing the Blue Jays like, “Oh, this is no good.” And then Vlatty comes in at least like no I thought that was Josh Allen like I love him but like if you want to get close and not win the Bills are that I mean gh shut your mouth when you’re talking just historically speaking I love Josh Allen. I hope they’re in the Super Bowl this year. Bills are back off of buy this week. Couple losses going in. Hope in a group. Yeah they will be rejuvenated. Play some defense. Get back to running the ball. I was going to have a bold prediction. I’ll go at it. I don’t like doing this dude because there’s some history that I don’t agree with. McDermott’s gone. Bill Bichc boom to the Bills. Really? Oh, we That’s a heel turn in division. Man, the scald [ย __ย ] ain’t working out. And Josh’s girlfriend and Bill’s girlfriend can hang wife and they can hang out. Bill’s got to get rid of that girlfriend. All works. Such a bad thing. This all works. It’s all gone poor. Girls, you go out. We’re going to go to work. We’ll meet you after. It’s perfect. This girlfriend of Bill said, “No one ever wants to. It’s free advice. It’s free. Run with it.” Yeah, we don’t charge for this. God, two hours every day. We don’t charge for this. You’re welcome. You want to super chat? That’s an option. That’s your choice. Yeah. Bill Belchick winning in big moments ever. He’s done that without Tom. Well, he’s got Josh. Okay. And the girls are hanging out together, so everybody’s Can we get Bill a new girl? Josh, Brady, you know, a couple of big winners. Yes. You got that Jets vid that you’re Yeah. Yeah. Let’s get the hell out. I’m Are you worried about the Patriots at all, though? [ย __ย ] They’re pretty good. No. No. Okay. I think they’re a good team. I think they’re playoff team, but I don’t think the Bills are like, “Oh, shoot. Well, that there goes our Super Bowl. Oh, we’re I’m more worried that the Bills defense is terrible and McDermott runs the defense and he can’t win big games. Hence, Bill is coming in and we’re going to whatever. Try and get Vable. He seems like he’s a pretty good coach. Did he in Tennessee? Seems to have made a positive impact. Patriots, he was out drinking too much Tennessee. And I can tell you having just been in Tennessee, the uh they like him, they miss him. They miss him dearly. Yeah, they already fired his replacement. So that hasn’t gone well. Yeah, there were a lot of things that people said they would do if they could just get Braves back. Yeah, he does seem like like the money you put on the headset, you’re like, that’s a coach. You spent a lot of time talking Titans football when you were down there, Dino. No, you know what was uh going on though? Um so it was Patriots were in town to play the Titans. Uh Pred’s out of town, but uh LSU was playing Vanderbilt. Yeah. Right. And Vanderbilt’s campus is right there. Vanderbilt’s campus is right there. And for the first time almost ever, they they were ranked hosting. Uh so this is a big deal. Top 10. They get the Tigers. Vandy beat them. Yeah. Remember last year we had they beat Alabama. Alabama tore the uprights and they walked down Broadway threw them in the water in the old Cumberland River. So they’re I like the name of that river. I think that’s they’re loving the uh Vanderbilt whatever they are. Yeah. You like Kyhuga better. That’s a good one for sure. Cumberland is they like the Commodores. Yeah, that’s what it is. Easy like Sunday morning. Play your dumb Jod. This is great. What is it? The saddest fan ever. Y’all see I get your thoughts on the game. I hate this team. I was born into this and I I’m not going to ever I’m always a Jets fan, but like I just I hate this team. Yeah. 0 and seven. That’s uh that’s from the heart. The comments on that one were wild, too.

Is that what uh kind of Yeah. We’re part of it and the guys in Edmonton, they’re part of it. Rosie and the Toronto guys, they’re part of it and all that. It’s Price Vancouver. Yeah. They keep adding uh shows to the network. That’s what a network is when there’s more than one. It’s just it’s a conglomeration of assets. And there is a uh a very popular podcast in our nation to the south that originates from Boston somewhere in the Boston area. It’s Boston. Uh couple of former radio personalities, TV, you know, reporters, legit media guys say it’s enough of this mainstream media stuff. Pump the brakes. Let’s do our own thing. The podcast is called What Chaos. DJ Bean and Pete Blackburn. We’ve had Pete on the show before. They are funny guys, talented guys. They don’t take it too serious. They have some fun. They do great work. And they now are part of the nation network. So, welcome to the What Chaos podcast is being part of our group. Good to have them on board. Oh, yeah. Could use some people that are that aren’t a bunch of losers because there’s a bunch of losers. A lot of nerds in the network. Finally got some cool guys. I think Frederick should be playing more on the second line. Cool. A break. DJ Bean, Pete Blackburn, What Chaos podcast joining the network. Joined Pinder earlier today. Well, we got some new friends. We got to tell you all about them. And welcome on to the network. It is What Chaos DJ Bean Pete Blackburn officially joining the nation’s network. What the hell is going on? We got more dummies on the network and I love it. How are you fellas? Great. Yeah, we’re uh I was going to say we’re trying to like not let our stupidity take over the place, but we’ve seen since we’ve joined the nation, a bunch of people we’ve been getting like a lot of like one of us texts from people at the nation. So, I’m like, “Okay, you guys want this. All right, careful what you ask for.” Specifically you guys, too, because we just did the Leaf show and they were like they were trying to describe the vibe of of our show and they were like, “They’re kind of like those those idiots at Barn Burner.” Like that’s the highest compliment we can think of for you guys. So, well, and likewise, yeah, that that’s amazing. We to for us to be affiliated now. Our stupidity can combine and, you know, watch this thing grow even greater. Uh, welcome aboard, fellas. For people that don’t know you, uh, tell us about the show, how you got started, uh, and you’re obviously you are located in Boston. I’ll I’ll tell that part, but the rest is yours. How did you dummies get together to create this magic? We are a uh daily NHL show Monday through Thursday that you can get here on the What Chaos YouTube. And we started this show two seasons ago. And before that, we’d had a pop culture podcast. So, we’ve been doing stuff together forever. But, uh yeah, I used to be a Bruins beat writer. And Pete and I got connected that way because Pete was the uh the preeminent Bruins person just like Bruins [ย __ย ] on Twitter. We didn’t know we didn’t know who he was, how old he was, anything, but we were like, we must find this person. And uh from there, we’ve just done a million things together. And uh yeah, this is our latest and greatest endeavor. And it’s the most fun we’ve had. We talk to players, we talk to coaches. It’s uh not to do the like our show is a little different thing, but uh our show is for sure a little different. We the the comments on the videos we post with players are like those two hosts are absolute idiots, but this video was really but but they’re lucky the player was uh was really cool with them. So like that’s the vibe we’re going for. We want you to like the people we have on, not necessarily us. Yeah. Our show works that way, too. It’s the We’re going to be a great fit together, fellas. I appreciate it. I remember Pete being on Twitter. I’m like, I don’t know if this guy’s like 13 to 42, but like he’s funny and he seems to be the go-to for Brunes Intel. So, uh, Pete, you can keep your secret of your age. Teens to 40 somewhere in there. We love you. Great. Correct. It’s a wide birth. Yeah. And like I I’ve worked in hockey for a little while at this point and uh somehow like I’ve gotten laid off a few times, but I’ve get never gotten fired, which I’m hoping to keep that streak going. Uh and yeah, I think that we just like to have fun and kind of bridge the gap between like being a fan and like actually taking the sport seriously and we like to meet somewhere in the middle and just have fun with it and we’ve been able to do that. You guys also have been doing some in some serious investigative journalism. I’ve been noticing. I didn’t know this this [ย __ย ] was happening, but down in the States, it’s a little different than it is up here. ESPN’s got the rights for the the package of games in the US. Here in Canada, Sportsnet Plus has everything. You can always watch all the games there, but in the States, it’s ESPN Plus. And they were doing some shady ass [ย __ย ] with their commercial breaks. Tell us how you figured this out. And apparently, they’re now going to fix it. You guys are legends. So, if it gets fixed, I I’ve said every time we’ve been asked about this, I don’t want anyone fired. I don’t want anyone suing me. I don’t want any like I All I want is for it to be fixed because I have missed 45 seconds of Jack Michaels and Louis de Brusk every time it comes back from commercial and I have to fast forward to catch up to live action. And what if a team scores a goal in that time? Basically, what’s happening, we think, is uh when ESPN Plus goes to commercial, the break that you end up experiencing, and this is worse on some devices than others, so I don’t want to put it all on ESPN Plus, but the break that you end up experiencing is longer than the actual broadcasts commercial break. So, say I’m watching a game on SportsNet and they have a 90-second break. what I might end up getting watching on ESPN Plus on a Samsung TV ends up being two minutes and then it returns to the game after, but it returns to where they come back from break. So, I don’t know that I’ve just lost 30 seconds and I have to manually check and fast forward to catch up. We brought this I I texted Pete and our producer Sean about it last week like, “Hey, is this happening to you?” And Pete checked and he was like, “Holy smokes, it’s happening to me.” So, we talked about it the next day on our podcast and we have so many people fans experiencing it. Uh, engineers explaining what might be happening and we’re not just trying to like sling feces. I’m like I’ve been calling ESPN support being like let’s get to the bottom of this. Not mad at you. Let’s just get to the bottom of it. It doesn’t speak for me. I’m mad at ESPN. Yes. Thank you. Me too. Yeah. But but ESPN did uh reach out to Awful Announcing and said like, “Hey, we know what they’re talking about. We’re working on it. So, I’ll tell you what, my experience, it’s not fixed yet. An important part, too, an important part here, too, is that it accumulates. So, like you miss 30 seconds and then like if you don’t notice, you’ll miss another 30 seconds down the road. And like by the second or third period, you’re 4 minutes behind where the game actually is. Imagine trying to like you’re like, “Oh [ย __ย ] look at the odds here. They’re only down by one. I can get plus 210. Let’s [ย __ย ] jump.” Like, what are we doing here? That is so greasy. That’s where it gets tough. the betting and just how embarrassing it was. Uh, a couple Saturdays ago against the Canucks, Noah Phelps scored a goal for the Oilers. So, I went to make a lame joke about him making winning the Calder on Twitter. And when I went to tweet it, there was already video of that goal posted like by the NHL like six minutes earlier and I was like, “Fuck, what am I doing?” And I this was before I realized what was going on and I was like I must have hit pause at some point like a dummy when I ran to the kitchen or something and oh no it’s just uh it’s it’s embarrassing to to think that you’re making a fresh joke about something that everyone has moved on from minutes ago. Humiliating. I got to come clean. This has nothing to do with ESPN Plus. These are our tariffs on hockey [ย __ย ] All right. that would rule. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. That sucks though. And like honestly, you’re like there’s just an assumption when you’re watching sports and you haven’t touched pause. It’s bleeping live. It better be like, okay, you got to 30 seconds for the digital board ad so Gary can make another half B. Whatever. We get it. But it’s generally speaking live. As we say on this show a lot, you would think. Yeah. So you you say so you say that you would think and that’s where we investigate. So why is it not happening? We’ve also gotten quite up to speed on the uh the theory of like inshitification. Do are you aware of that? Please enlighten me Pete. It’s where like com It’s the like the theory that like companies like roll something out and gradually gradually make it worse and worse and worse and it just becomes commonly accepted and then everything is shitty and like that is that is where we are and I will not stand for it. It drives me insane. Yeah, it’s just uh it’s like the food we ate 50 years ago versus now probably. Yeah, I’m with you there. Okay, fair. Uh want to talk Bruins with you. The Bruins have some interesting tieins to the Calgary Flames. Uh because we we got to watch Nikita Zidorov and Elias Lindholm ask for more money than they were worth and watch them put their pouty pants on or have their agent go into Toronto and say that Nikita Zidorov is the best defenseman on a team that’s got Chris Tanov, Noah Hannifan, Rasmus Anderson, McKenzie Weaguer. It was quite a show. Uh luckily Craig Conroy either his owner was in the air and couldn’t answer his phone or said no to such extensions. And then uh promptly both went to Vancouver for two months of underwhelming hockey. I guess Nikita about four months. And finally though, they’re getting what they deserve. Nikita, the sixth team is the team that’s going to respect you the most and pay you what you deserve. Uh although I hear Elias is off to a better start this year. Elias has been pretty good. And like Nikita Zidorov, he might not be the best of the defenseman that you name, but he’s by far the coolest. Like he is absolutely the coolest guy probably on the Bruins, maybe in the league. He’s an insane person. Plug for this show. Watch our interview with Nikita Zidorov. Okay. He is He’s the greatest. And I I used to cover the Bruins, but like I’m not I I wouldn’t call myself like a Bruins fan, whatever. So, I don’t really have a lot of skin in the game. I champion the absolute Christ out of Nikita Zidorov kind of for all the reasons that you just listed. He pisses so many people off. And he came in last year and I think probably thought that maybe he was like kind of wearing an invisible letter on his jersey, which is something that’s happened at some stops throughout his career. I love it for him. He came on our show, did research on both of us, which no guest we’ve ever had has known who we were. Uh we just had Jim Hiller on at the end he was like well guys I gotta be honest I’d never heard of you but our people said that uh you guys are doing a great thing and we I should come on your show so I’m doing it. Nikita Zidorov came on and hammered Pete with like 600 short jokes. He made fun of me for being an Oilers fan. He’s incredible. And I’m like, like we’re going to the Marshon game tonight. And I told Pete, I’m like, “You need to you need to to to do anything you can to restrain me from buying a Nikita Zorov jersey because I want to be the only person who owns one.” He’s the highest event hockey player I’ve ever seen. Uh, joining the rush. So, we discuss this on our show. Avent Bousard, as Pete calls him, number one, puts it Bard doesn’t have the physicality element and won’t like saw off a fight with someone 20 pounds lighter. like the kid does everything entertainment will he will tap out of a chokeold sometimes which is that’s just final we uh we went to the Oilers game last year the Bruins Oilers and Nikita Zidorov had a partial break and we’re like we’re like oh my god this is it you’ll never guess how this breakaway ended and do you know what he did he ran over Stu Skinner and got a and got a penalty took a penalty got a goalender interference penalty on a breakaway didn’t didn’t shoot, didn’t do. It was the best. Oh, that is Peak. We used to We call him the Zad Dog around here cuz, you know, he’s that cool. And it was the the Zidorov roller coaster, like the flashes of brilliance slash like insanity. He’s just like some evil professor up to things that human minds can’t comprehend. Um, I I enjoyed the show. I just wasn’t really willing for this team to fork over the term and the dollars. Like you’re going to pay him to be a 23. You’re going to be disappointed, but it won’t be boring. Wouldn’t he be like fourth on the flames in scoring this season though? He’d be first probably. There’s this lowest like they’re my producer Jack here looked it up. They are on pace now very early to be the lowest scoring team since the cap. The 14 Sabres who I believe were tanking the [ย __ย ] out of the league for McDavid had like 1.7 goals a game. They’re under that. It’s impressive stuff. Have you guys started talking about McKenna yet? all the time and he grew up a Calgary guy played in Medicine Hat which is like two three hours away like his story is been been talked about for ages and then the one the next year is Landon Dupon who is a son of Mickey grows up in Calgary he was a flames farm man would have played in the league except that was the water ski through the neutral zone clutch and hold era he went to Europe and was a stud there and then the year after that is Maddx Schultz who’s playing in Regina from Regina like Western Canada is kicking out some mega studs lately even further back, Celabbrini, North Vancouver, Bernard, V, like it’s just there’s factories of amazing young players and the Flame is like, you know, but what if we could finish ninth in the West? So, this is like the war we’re fighting here. Like, just suck it up and suck for one, maybe two years. You got a decent stable of support pieces. You have no stars. You got a goalie that has to be first star if you’re going to win. I I heard Elliot talking about it on 32 thoughts and he brought up like is there going to be motivation with the new building to say like oh like let’s put off on a rebuild. I think it’s the opposite in a way you’re two years away if you but if you get a Gavin McKenna or something like that’s what’s bringing people to the building. Yes. No one’s like, say you end up like working something out for I’ll just pick a name of a player who’s on a bad team. Like say you end up getting like Stamco so you can limp into the playoffs this year or something like that. Stop. Yeah. Just No. Are is that bringing people to the building in a couple years? I don’t think so. God, no. No. And it’s like already you’re married to Jonathan Hubedo for another six years making superstar money to be like a second line winger. We also like him. uh he good player but again just ignore the contract and how biop proof it is like it was right after Johnny left and Kachchuck left and it was the we’ll prove someone will sign here by signing an awful deal like we’ve never signed before that’s buyout proof it it was it was a nightmare but it like they’re not bad they just don’t have any dynamic young stud player they’ve got a bunch of good wingers coming up through the system they got a bunch of good young D but you need someone to sell tickets and this owner is obsessed with the bottom line. It’s like, fella, you’re going to ask people like double the price for the same beer and the same seat. It better not be the same team or people aren’t going to buy it. Like, this new building should help them want to rebuild. They’ve got a really good system. They have two firsts this year. Make one of them really bleeping high. Get the Vehoff kid out of North Dakota. Get McKenna. Like, let’s go here, fellas. It’s not this complicated. But, I mean, it’s never that simple here. They’ll get on some stupid sixgame heater in the spring and totally screw their lottery odds. That’s how it works. I love it. I love it so much. I We were talking about it last night. Like I don’t know why McKenna kind of slipped our like radar for for Calgary, but like even even if it’s just McDavid and McKenna in like the battle of Alberta for like the next like handful of years that’s got juice. I just I need I need Calgary to be back in the mix in terms of a team worth taking seriously. Like what are they the worst at scoring? Yeah. What is he? He’s like western Canadian cooerov. He’s a winger that just creates off. Like it’s so perfect that it can’t work for this franchise because they’re doomed. Uh yeah. And no picks ever in the top three. Highest pick ever number four. That’s Bennett. They found a way to screw that up. Like it’s they picked the top five like twice in 30 years. Like if any team actually deserves it on merit, not some lottery ball [ย __ย ] that DJ Bean’s all about like four first and seven years. Like this team needs and deserves McKenna. That’s my rant. I also thought that uh I had this idea in my mind that they were deep prospectwise and I checked the other day and I was like they have three of the top 100 prospects per the athletic which isn’t terrible. No list to list it sh it changes but like I would say like perex arrived so I don’t count him or not. Rashny at North Dakota was a pick in the teens last year. He’s a center which they have none of which is great. Grin made the team out of camp looks to be really good. You got Burstic, one-year pro under his belt. He’ll jump onto the blue line soon. You’ve got Muse playing at Penn State. They got another kid there. Like, it’s a good system. It’s missing a star. And they’ve got that like that kid playing at uh where is it? Marry or something. Like the 5’6 kid that they got in the fourth round. He’s unreal. Anyway, yeah, I didn’t go to Marramac, but yes, it was Mary, but not you. Not you. But similar stature, more offense. Anyway, Whitten, they’re missing the star. That’s what it is. It’s like lots of B prospects, all of them, but not a lot of A’s. Fellas, welcome to the network. I’ve allowed you to rant. I’ve gotten things off my chest and uh we’re friends now. Okay. Love it. Always. Go J. America’s team. That’s right. Yes. Welcome, boys. See you later. Kind of got going there, eh? Both of us was good. We got everything off our chest. They’re beauties. They’re shows like ours. I didn’t think we’d get into the Wittenback Marmac. Uh I think it’s Give a dog a bone. Yeah. Part of the uh podcast, but yet there it is. I like that they they see as people in the other side of the continent in a different country. They’re like, “No, it’s just the league’s a little better when Calgary’s got some.” I’m like, “Okay, good.” What chaos is the podcast? They get great guests. They are again, they’re they’re funny guys. They’re they’re okay taking shots at themselves and uh they don’t take it too serious. You can check that out. uh YouTubes, audio, you know how it is. And you’ll see a lot coming up on the uh on our socials and that about how to follow and enjoy the What Chaos podcast. We’ll be checking in when the Flames have their two visits either home or away with the Bruins as well. Makes sense to connect with those fells. They’re good guys. They it very funny. You guys did you do have that Zidorov thing that you can bond over which is nice. They love him. He’s not boring. Never has been. We’ll wrap this show with a little visit on the uh oh, hit the horns, baby. Little super chat for the youth centers of Calgary. As we go live, you put comments into the comment section. We’ll then talk about them and react on the show and give the money to a great charity. Hey, hey, the working man. The working man. I saw the working man was on the what chaos show yesterday coming. He’s he’s checking in everywhere. What a He’s working, man. He is working. You would think the working man would have a job. He’s working the YouTubes. Remember when the Flames had elite goal scorers like Flurry Newandike and Iggy? Pepperage Farm remembers. That’s right. Even Jack like that one. Yeah, we do. We do. Fond memories of all of those. And there was lots more like you had Joe Mullen American. I think he’s Flur with 50. You had Sergey Mackarov. Good players, man. Late 80s. Woo. Pepperage Farms remembers. Yeah. Good icing on the top of those things. Nice and thick. Voyager 2. Let’s trade for some goal scorers and go for a run. Sounds like a rat last January. Don’t do it. Why don’t you go for a run off a short pier? Something like that. See you. I know what he’s saying. Yeah. No, that doesn’t feel like it’s uh in the cards anytime soon. I hope not. Feels like it would hurt more than it would help. Yeah. You know, it’s a new building and no one’s buying these expensive seats, but we did finish 10th that year because we got that guy that was definitely downhill at 32. The guy that sits here and has to do a show every day part of me is like, it’s going to be a long, but it it feels more clear than ever. Ever. And yeah, it’s only it it’s early, but it’s so what happened? Nothing happened. It’s just the bounces aren’t happening. They’re not getting wins where they shouldn’t. all of that sort of thing. I cuz I don’t know that they deserve to be better than one and six. They I feel like they’ve earned that. They put together some 60-minute efforts in the first six maybe, but they hadn’t until last night. Really? Yeah. Lucky they got the one perhaps. For back end 699. Uh how many points did Hubo have in his first year as a Flame? He had the famous drop off, the biggest one season drop in point total in the history of the NHL. You want to Google it? 115. So this is from uh so yeah went from 115 in his last year in Florida then gets involved in the trade then comes to Calgary. So that first year because he’s in year three of being a flames go back a couple of years better last year than had a better year last year in his first year as a flame. Voyager 2 is saying 55 points 60 less. Hoy. He had 30 more assists the year prior than he did points his first year in Calgary. I think what he’s getting at is he wanted to hear the drone. I’m now getting that. Yeah. Farah Wandler. I’m a Wandler. Yeah, I’m a Wandler. I’ve been around. Didn’t think I would say Pinder is right, but I think Calgary wants to be in the running to win the McKenna sweep stakes. Make McKenna a flamer. They said Mike McKenna. I was like hard pass. No, he’s retired. Yeah. Yeah. It’s you’re going to need some luck. You You need a lot of things to go your way for sure. Somebody is going to pick first overall and it seems like they’re going to take McKenna at that first. There’s there’s two phases. Are you bad enough to be in the mix? Yes. Seems like it. Are you the lucky one team that gets to pick him? Stay tuned till June. That’s right. Oh dear. Oh, Voyager 2. He was in twice already, so he knows how to do. I hope when they make Voyager 3, they work out the kinks. Iron Bay 699. Bring Daryl back as president of hockey ops and trade Weaguer. Will Bexa need to call Weaguer out to change your opinion on him? Boomer. Go Jay’s. We were in it last night. He uh he is in the trade Weaguer keep Anderson department whereas I’m on the other side. I I feel like Weaguer is the better defenseman and there’s less term remaining. Like if you can get Rasmus on a three-year deal, hell yeah, do that. But like at least in the summer Rasmus wants a maximum deal. So it’s like that’s eight here plus the years. You want nine years of Anderson versus like four of weaguer, five of nine. And it’s been made no mistake and Weaguer said it as much the other day. It’s not been a good start for him, but I still think like when you look at that blue line group, I’m going to take weager playing with. Who’s he playing with? Top of that list. It’s a bean. It’s Brad. It’s What is the Jay’s record for watch parties? ALCS. Jay’s 4-0 when I watch for my coach. 0 and3 when not. Guess where my ass will be on Friday. Brad Miller time. You do whatever you need to do. Whatever. It’s all I know is that they’re two and0 and I’m in the building in the playoffs, right? You’re welcome. How bad do you want it? How bad do you want a World Series championship? Get my ass to Toronto. Probably do. Nick, that’s a big one. Oh, we 27.99. Fellas, to answer your question, I’m having a girl. New new parent, Nick. Yeah, but please pray for her. Mom and dad and all in-laws are Oilers. Honks go. I will try best to get her to root for the good guys. Oilers stink. Keep punching. Yeah. Don’t worry about the onesies and the the soothers with the logos. By the time she’ll remember the earliest days of her life, McDavid will be long gone. It’s fine. Totally fine. Yeah. Speaking of keep punching. Where’s Aussie Brad? Boy, I don’t know. I’m still This is getting Yeah. Yeah. I am going to uh I have his email address. Worried a little bit. Worried a lot. Yeah, nefarious activities. Team Eats five bean Pinder. I bet you can get bean salad at the ballpark if you go to one of the games in LA. Nine innings, nine bean salads, nine matches. My wife would like the matches. Hey, the match of tea, some bean salads. Party on. G, got any rhubarb I could chew here at the seventh inning stretch? One of them Jins Singh drinks. No, I’m good. Stick to the beer and hot dogs. Got a lot of good stuff today. They had a turkey leg like in Seattle, Dino. Yeah. Oh, like slow roasted barbecue sauce. Like people love that. The onion or the whatever it is, the bloom and onion that onion thing in Seattle. I garlic fries. Big one there. Yeah, it stinks up half that quarter section of the ballpark. It’s like I was not in an eat mood those two days. We had lunch. That was about it. You don’t eat at all anyway. I’ll eat. It’s just when we’re on a bender, we don’t eat. Yeah. Eating cheap. Taking space. Yeah. What are we doing here? Why are we doing this? Yeah. Is that it, Jack? That’s all. Stuck around for that, eh? Well, that was pretty good. That’s all right. $27.99. Yeah. So, big big money coming in. It’s a new dad, Nick. That’s what it’s all about. Grants. Yeah. Coming up. Yeah, that’s what it’s all about. Well, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Big one tomorrow. Who we getting on tomorrow? Noodles. The Habs already. The Habs are in town. Yeah. Yeah. What if my buddy Scotty Malo will be making the trip down from Red Deer? Seems like he always gets the one game. See his beloved Habs. Yeah, they’re fun. Yeah, it’s always it may the potential the recipe is there for it not to be super fun for Flame fans tomorrow. Correct. I think there’s a lot of potential for fan HBS fans to have a great time. Yeah. It’d be like when Pinder and Jay’s fans show up at Yeah. You invade the ballpark mobile take over their space with your chance and your boozy breath and your mushroom mints. Anyway, your bean salad ziplockc bags of bean salad for the for the stretch. Yeah. Yeah. Something like that. Because they uh they get excited. They come out for the even the warm-up half hour before puck drop. You know what they’re doing? They’re hooting and hollering. Yeah, they are hooting and then hollering. Yeah, that’s what happens. So, that’s tomorrow. Big show. Any former Flames we can bet on tomorrow? I haven’t looked. We’ll check that for tomorrow’s show. Is there some I scanned that Winnipeg roster. Amal Heinman or Heinman’s moved on. He’s on the island now. He scored the other day. Well, anyway, that’s tomorrow. We look forward to having you. Should we be good? We look forward and you know what? We appreciate you supporting the causes, supporting us, youths, supporting Jack. Yeah. Keeping me alive. Oh, we got one more. Almost didn’t keep him alive this weekend. Disaster. Yeah. Not keeping Ras. Trade both. Weaguer first. Mission McKenna. I’m trying to imagine what your top pair would be after that trade. Like you would be bad. I do. I will give you that R&B. Yeah. I like a ball per top pair or like a Yeah, our top four is a ball, Bean, Mirram, Bahal, and Perk. Yeah, I stroll them the wolves. How How far do you want to strip it down? How far can you How far do you want to? What makes the most sense? Yeah. The notion of being good in 27, I don’t think is outlandish. Not like good good, but like heading in the right direction on the way up. And a weaguer would be helpful at that point. That’s kind of what they’re trying to balance. And I still like I I I get it, but the the building is too false. It’s like what if there isn’t a building? Are you not trying to get better now? Like I just I think the building is just a plea to the owner that if you look at the financials, all of a sudden you’re talking his language. And when you start asking people more money for the same beer, the same hot dog to watch the same team. Yeah. It’s gonna not go well. Like the team’s better. Like I say, I get that. But if you’re building a hockey roster, if you’re general manager, like I build it or don’t build it, I could the team that I’m given there there’s a path that I’m going to take. And right now it’s pretty clear that path is we’re going to have to shed some assets and we’re going to be bad for a bit. And let’s try and get better. And if that’s when the new building opens or if it’s open for a year or two, you know, a McKenna, that’s that’s that’s the bigger thing. Getting a top two or three pick, that’s what it is over Yeah. over a building. The hope is that because we watched this ownership group refuse to do that at the end of the Iggy years when it was so clearly obvious to everyone what they should be doing and didn’t until they were forced into it. Is that maybe this other angle of oh, and there’ll be added financial gain if you do it properly. That could help. But you’re right, you should always be trying to build a contender. Yeah. Is there any breaking news going on? Is anything happening out there? What’s going on on Twitter’s? See, my kid’s eating his bean salad. Just get the hell out of here, probably. I do that. Yeah, I think I’m going to press the button. All right. Well, we’ll do it again tomorrow. All right. Button. Button. Button.

  8. Tankathon is a great site to sim the lottery (all sports).

    Iโ€™d be shocked if Calgary ends up with more points than my Blackhawks as we have more top end young talent and Spencer Knight like Wolf is a good mid 20s goalie. I say this as someone who still would love to luck into a top2 pick in 2026 draft bc McKenna & Verhoeff both game wreckers who have the upside to be top1-5 at their position!

    In a perfect world my Blackhawks and your Flames will get the top2 picks! If any team deserves it itโ€™s the Flames with ZERO top3 picks in 45 years!
    My Pacers have never gotten the #1 pick in 60yrs in 60yr history and no Top5 pick since the 80s which annoys me as an early 80s baby so I feel your pain! So many drafts I wanted a higher pick and instead we ended up 10-14 somewhere! You can find studs there but the odds in the top3 go way up!

  9. Habs fan, not sure why I watch this show sometimes but I think you guys hit an absolute Homerun with Reschny + Parekh. If you pair them with Mckenna (or someone of the like) you'll have the rebuild everyone wanted.

  12. I attended a fundraiser for the Marijuana Policy Project at The Playboy Mansion in 2009. The hosts were model Adrianne Curry and musician Perry Farrell of Jane's Addiction. I shared some herb with Danny Glover. Every man should go there at least once, it's quite the venue.
