show Monday through Fundy ten am to
noon on check. You're in local sports

3
00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:21.079
coverage laves here? Well, why
am I watching it? Because it's on

4
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:26.039
TV where Don Taylor cucumber is the
worst vegetable out there, no lasting power,

5
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:29.600
no staying power. And Rick Dully
Wall forty five minutes in front of

6
00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:35.799
a mirror. I banged it years. Donnie and Dolly ten o'clock in downtown

7
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:39.600
Vancouver run the Paul Carson Studio.
Thanks for tuning in, Folks. It's

8
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:42.640
Donny and Dolly the team on Check. Don Taylor, along with Brick Dully

9
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:45.799
Wall. Ryan Henderson is our producer. He's the man of the control is

10
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:50.359
our director. The voice of God
is Derek Wong. How are you couldn't

11
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:55.520
be better? Abbots for Canucks host
the Calgary Wranglers tonight. The Wranglers,

12
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:59.679
who finished with the best record in
the American Hockey League up to nothing on

13
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:07.280
after a couple of overtime wins in
Alberta, so they play again tonight.

14
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:11.439
So it's the best of five.
Calgary can wrap it up. If Abbotsford

15
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.799
ends up winning, they play another
game on Friday. If they win again,

16
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.799
then there's a game five fifty deciding
game Sunday in Abbotsford. Here's what

17
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.840
I like, Donny. In game
two it was the young kids that scored

18
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.879
our Steeve Danes two shorthanded goals on
the same Calgary power play unheard of?

19
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.079
When is you know that doesn't happen
every day of the week. And Tristan

20
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:34.519
Nielsen, the Fort Saint John kid, the good The young kids scored Donny

21
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.000
in a pressure pack situation against the
best team. But Abbotsford better get their

22
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.560
power play, going down over nine
in the first two games over seven in

23
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:45.879
the second game. You can't beat
the best team in the American league if

24
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.920
you're gonna go over on the power
play with the other thing. Niels Hoglander,

25
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:51.879
who is who has you know been
arguably their best player? Yeah?

26
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.280
Ibbots for the best player in the
playoffs. He's running into penalty troubles in

27
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.560
this series so far, so obviously
he's got to stay out of the sin

28
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.519
bit. They need him on the
ice. I don't know. I think

29
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:02.200
there's some tickets still available. I
know we've been through this before. It's

30
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:07.879
a Wednesday night and we know junior
hockey in the American League day best nights

31
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.719
or Fridays and Saturdays. But pack
that rank tonight, Abbsburg. Let's stick

32
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:19.080
on the theme of the Canucks Vancouver
version this time. Tyler Myers is going

33
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:23.960
overseas Finland and Latvia for the World
Championships to represent Canada. He won't be

34
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.360
the only Canuck defenseman. You know
that. Ethan Barry committed to Team Canada.

35
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:31.560
So Tyler Myers goes over. Why
does this make sense for him?

36
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:34.360
Oh, it makes a lot of
sense for him, just you know,

37
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:37.319
he keeps it's a good experience.
Yeah, Donnie, we don't get to

38
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:38.199
go to Finland every day of the
week. You know, you take your

39
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:42.240
family, you have a good time, you go play some hockey. It's

40
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:46.800
a good opportunity for him to keep
going. And Ethan Bear and Tyler Myers

41
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.479
to the Cannucks defenseman going. Connor
Garland's going as well for the Americans.

42
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:53.960
So some good representation by Vancouver.
Now some local guys that are not going,

43
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.240
Donnie. Troy Stetcher was asked,
he said, no, I think

44
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:00.960
Troy Stetcher is in the UFA.
He's a UFA this summer again. So

45
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.159
I think that played a role,
and I think that Devon Tave's a kid

46
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:08.560
out of Absburg, Colorado Avalanche second
in the NHL don for NHL points for

47
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:13.520
defenseman Devon Day. Tave said no
to Canada, He's not gonna go.

48
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:17.680
So Stecher said no, Tave said
no, and Myers said yes, Canada

49
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:23.280
versus Latya. That's our country's opener. It's on May twelfth. Does that

50
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:27.240
say something? Look, I'm not
knocking anybody who's made it to the National

51
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.560
hockeyy. You have to be a
superior athlete to do so. But let's

52
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:34.039
face that the Canucks were exactly a
defense of Juggernai this. Yes, does

53
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.639
it say something about Canada's defense if
Tyler Meyer is an Ethan Barrett part of

54
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.599
it? Yeah, I I I'll
just tell you that a lot of a

55
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:45.879
lot of players said no. A
lot of players said no to the Americans.

56
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:47.840
A lot of players said nohere the
Canadians, Donnie, after you said

57
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:52.759
it yesterday before the show, after
a grind of an NHL season, you

58
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:54.639
want to you want to relax.
You don't want to hop on a plane

59
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.919
go overseas. You know. So
anyways, that there is that factor but

60
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.719
some guys go, Lucit just going
to a good Vancouver kid. He's gonna

61
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:06.120
go to Finland and he's a UA. He's a UFA, he's a you

62
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:11.280
know. I heard Bruff and Rough
talking about Lucit this morning, if you'll

63
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:13.759
come to Vancouver. They had it
wrong, both of them. But anyways,

64
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:15.759
that's okay. What do you mean
they they had it wrong. They

65
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:18.120
were saying Lucas is gonna retire.
He's not gonna retire. I talked to

66
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.199
his agent, Jerry Johansson, good
guy. They're gonna try and get another

67
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:25.839
contract. Donnie. I think luch
still wants to play, and they're asking

68
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:30.000
about if Luca and Vancouver works.
I don't know what you're done. But

69
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:32.160
if Lucit is gonna play in Vancouver
and signed with the Canucks, he's got

70
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:36.000
to be an everyday player. He
was an healthy scratch in Calgary this year.

71
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:40.120
I think if you're gonna play that
role for the Vancouver Canucks and Rick

72
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:43.319
Tarckett, you gotta be an everyday
player. You can't be bouncing in and

73
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:46.439
out of the press box. Well
that's easier said than done at this stage

74
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.199
of his career. Yeah, but
he's still tough. He still defends his

75
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:53.199
teammates and he's still one of the
toughest guys in the NHL. Don and

76
00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:56.319
you know that, so their team, there will be interest in Milan,

77
00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:00.319
Lucite. I take it to the
bank with Milan with Tyler Meyer, and

78
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:03.360
I'm not sure of their history internationally, but I think as you get older

79
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:09.120
in later in your career, I
think representing your country no matter what the

80
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.920
event is, it's it's bucket list, isn't it. Let's get this done.

81
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:14.879
I want I want to get this. I want to do this at

82
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:17.600
least once or you know, twice
during my career. Yeah, it's important.

83
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:21.000
I think that's true, and that
trip and everything that you represent the

84
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:26.480
country. There's no better feeling.
Um, let's stick with the Canucks here.

85
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.839
Elias Petterson, Well, first of
all, I'll do this lady being.

86
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.800
I know you were excited about that
yesterday, Lady Being finalists announced yesterday,

87
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:39.879
but also the Selkie finalists were announced
yesterday for best defensive forward in the

88
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:45.240
National Hockey League. The three finalists
are Patriot Spurge Run. Everybody just assumes

89
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.079
he's going to win. Another one
of the Selkies. Who should name the

90
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:55.120
award after him, Nico Heischer and
Mitch Marner on no shortage of people in

91
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:59.240
connect Nation. Upset that Elias Petterson
wasn't We don't know how many votes he

92
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:01.560
got. We don't it wasn't named
one of the three finalists. I'm sure

93
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:04.000
he got voted on. His day
will come. It doesn't have to be

94
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:06.360
this year. I mean, look
at the finalists. I mean, can

95
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:11.560
you complain with any of the finalists
on well, because he's a league and

96
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:15.879
he's a winger. Most guys that
win this are centerman because no one has

97
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:20.120
more responsibility defensively more than a centerman. So there are surprises that Marner got

98
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:24.600
it simply because he's a winger.
Not many wingers win this award. But

99
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.800
Petterson will win it someday. Down
someday he'll get there. He'll be in

100
00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:31.560
the final three. Not this year. He was plus sixteen. He had

101
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:36.399
five shorthanded goals after moving to p
K one hundred and two points. Not

102
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:40.319
that that plays a whole. I
think they want an all around game,

103
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:44.680
so points do play some part into
it. But you talk about being a

104
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:46.360
center iceman. If you're going to
be a center iceman, if you are

105
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.079
a centi riceman in the National Hockey
League, and you want to win the

106
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:54.319
Selkie Trophy, you have to be
pretty good at faceoffs forty three percent for

107
00:06:54.519 --> 00:07:00.439
EP forty. That doesn't get it
done. Then there's team performance absolutely twenty

108
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:05.040
fifth in goals against per game not
good enough. And then the pek which

109
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:09.279
Elias was part of. I know
he's not the only problem out there,

110
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:12.920
and I don't think it was a
problem at all, but dead last,

111
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:16.600
that's a thirty second a pk.
So it's it's not just what he's doing

112
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.959
out there, that's what the whole
team is doing. The thing is with

113
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:24.480
Elias Patterson, and this isn't going
to be the case with a lot of

114
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:28.079
the voters, many of whom,
most of whom are situated back East.

115
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:32.199
You really have to see him play
live to appreciate what he does. Defensively.

116
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:36.600
That's a good point. Is he
is really conscientious when it comes to

117
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:41.720
backchecking. Backchecking he is there's a
lot of hustle there. When you think

118
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:44.519
Elias Petterson, you think of him
with the puck, you think of his

119
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:48.319
creativity offensively, but when you see
him live and it just doesn't you know,

120
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:51.319
you don't always pick this up on
television. That's like you rarely do

121
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:56.160
you see him, like you really
notice how much he cares about backchecking right

122
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.959
from his first one. That's one
of the reasons why he's in the conversation

123
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.000
at the very least. But not
a finalist this time finalist team has to

124
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:07.800
be better than all three finalists,
all three of those all three of those

125
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:09.680
teams made the playoffs. Yea,
No, that's a good point, and

126
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:15.040
he'll get there someday. And his
backchecking game one in the NHL, you

127
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:18.839
see you saw it in game one, Holy smokes, this guy cares first

128
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:22.040
guy back We'll deal with the kracking
and Stars. So the two games last

129
00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:26.040
night is the second round gotten underway. We'll deal with the kracking and Stars

130
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:31.120
a little bit later when we deal
with our poll question. It is somewhat

131
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:35.279
Stars related and we're gonna relate it
to the Canucks. But Florida also beats

132
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:39.519
the Leaves by a score of four
to two. You just assume there was

133
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.679
going to be some sort of emotional
letdown for Florida after what they did against

134
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:46.080
the Boston Bruins, and that wasn't
the case. They were great, They're

135
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:50.279
fast, and I think the Leafs
are going to have trouble with that.

136
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:54.480
They certainly did last night. Panthers
over the Lease by a score of four

137
00:08:54.480 --> 00:09:01.039
to two. Matthew Kachuck three assists, he also had nine. You know

138
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.679
what a leader he is. And
the thing is with him last night,

139
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:09.039
and I think this must have been
part of the Leafs a game plan,

140
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:13.399
in particularly Luke Chen's. He got
hit a lot. He was giving out,

141
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.799
he had, he got any.
Part of their plan was let's,

142
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.720
you know, let's let's drive that
guy into the ground. It didn't work.

143
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.559
He got he got the three assists, and I think he's the type

144
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:24.080
of player. A lot of great
players are like this, and he is

145
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.840
a great player. You hit them, it gets them more involved. He

146
00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:33.600
was just a fine last night.
He was he was outstanding. Luke Schen

147
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:35.360
six hits last night, Donni fourteen
minutes. He didn't play a ton.

148
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.480
But you know again in three block
shots, his price on July first is

149
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:43.200
going to go up. And if
the Canucks want to get Luke Schen back,

150
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:45.960
it's the price point is going up. I'm telling you that much.

151
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.320
Right now. I have a couple
of friends, I'm sure you do,

152
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.840
two who are big Leaf fans,
and they laughed when the Canucks probably when

153
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:54.360
their team. When the Leaves picked
up Luke Chen, It's like, what's

154
00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.600
he gonna do? What He's sure
he was good with the Canucks, but

155
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.720
the Leaves are so much better.
And they all they both admit that,

156
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.639
hey, great he's been he's been
great, and you're right. His his

157
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:07.559
cost is is because price point is
up. Luke Schen is what what what

158
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:11.080
Luke Schen costs? Two months ago
in July? First, Donny, that's

159
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:13.600
not the price anymore. The other
player I want to talk about. I

160
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:18.200
remember being at a game at Rogers
Arena, Uh Canucks versus the Ducks,

161
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:24.200
and I couldn't believe how good this
kid named Brandon Montour was good lacrosse player

162
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.159
too, by the way, but
um, but about how good he was

163
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.399
on the ice, and kind of
a strange career after that, never lived

164
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.679
up to the expectations, went from
Anaheim to Buffalo. But that talent was

165
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:41.279
there, like the skating was there, the offensive potential was there. So

166
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:45.360
he's got four goals in three games. He scored again last night. He

167
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:50.000
scores twice in Game seven. If
I'm not mistaken against Boston is he one

168
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.519
of the most underrated players in the
hits seventy three points in the regular season.

169
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:58.200
It was his it was it was
his career best six goals in eight

170
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.320
playoff games. John And as a
player, the previous regime in Vancouver was

171
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.639
trying to get for a while too, so especially when he was in Buffalo.

172
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.399
So he's having one hell of a
playoff. Brandon montour Man, oh

173
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:16.200
Man All defenseman by long shot.
So two openers tonight in round two,

174
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:20.480
the All Red and Black series,
and you know that bothers me. Somebody

175
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.080
cares about uniforms too much, too
much. Get Away from a Devil's at

176
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:28.639
Carolina tonight, Oilers at Vegas.
I think that's the series most people are

177
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.759
looking forward. Yes didn't have that
poll question yesterday. It's all a blur.

178
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:37.600
It was all so much going on
in this head that I can't keep

179
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:39.279
trap. But that was our poll
question yesterday. I think most people are

180
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.720
interested in the Oilers in Vegas.
I think a lot of people feel that

181
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.600
one of those two teams are the
favorites to win the Stanley Cup. Maybe

182
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:50.679
maybe the Leafs. So they lost
last night. I think Vegas, the

183
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:56.360
city has had the Leafs as the
favorite. There's our poll from yesterday.

184
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:00.960
Yeah, it's forty four percent.
Oilers, Golden Nights, no surprise,

185
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:05.960
No Panthers only right behind them.
But it brings together in a playoff series

186
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:11.600
the two top draft picks from twenty
fifteen, which is a fabulous draft class

187
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.080
up there with un three is one
of the best of all time, and

188
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:20.720
it's and it's early relatively speaking.
Yeah, but Connor McDavid versus Jack Eichel,

189
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:24.360
would you take Jack Eichel? Would
you still take Jack Eichel? Not

190
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.919
second overall? Oh? Oh you
being second? Yeah, I think you

191
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:33.200
would. You told me off the
air that you've been doing doing a lot

192
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:35.759
of thinking, and you said to
me that, no question, you would

193
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:41.240
take Connor McDavid still, oh,
boy said but Donnie, look at the

194
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:46.480
two fifteen draft. Look after Eichel, there's I would take Marner ahead of

195
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.639
him. Well, okay, let
me throw some numbers out here. Yeah,

196
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:52.559
Iichael, And there have been injuries, which is part of it,

197
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:54.600
you know, Kenny, Kenny stay
healthy and of course he wasn't all that

198
00:12:54.600 --> 00:13:01.039
happy in Buffalo, but he's fifth
amongst the twenty fifth Dean Draft picks.

199
00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:05.840
In points Marner's ahead of him obviously, McDavid, Marner, Ranton in um

200
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:11.799
Sebastian Aho is ahead of him.
I think, uh yeah, I think

201
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:16.200
I've got that right. And then
also in that draft, so it's yeah,

202
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:18.200
sorry, so McDavid, Marner,
Ranton and Aho ahead of him.

203
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:22.960
He's fifth. Rupey Hints was also
in that draft. That's the best first

204
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.720
round in the NHL draft. Well, Hints wasn't in the first round.

205
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:28.039
He wasn't in the first but that
two fifteen that's where brock Besser went,

206
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:33.039
and that's Barzel's in there. Barzel's
and they're Thomas Shabad, who's unreal is

207
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:35.759
in there. Yeah, Kyle Connor's
in there, Eric Sinak, who's been

208
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.960
a very good player. I mean, it's such a loaded first round they

209
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:45.399
there, there's so much Yeah,
that's right. Uh, there's so much

210
00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.960
with that twenty fifteen draft. And
the thing for me that you know,

211
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:54.080
sticks out almost as much as McDavid
and Michael being taken one two. Boston

212
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:58.440
kind of blew it all. They
blew there three in the first round and

213
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:03.000
the only one that's made any uh
you know, and any sort of punch

214
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:07.000
in the National Hockey League impact in
the National Hockey League is Debrusk the other

215
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:11.159
two. They passed on Burzel,
they didn't pick Shabbat. They could have

216
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.679
had brock Best or it would have
been a great pick for them. There

217
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:18.519
unbelievable. Best ER's tenth all time
or tenth all time, but tenth.

218
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:20.559
I think maybe people would find this
surprising. And when it comes to that

219
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:26.519
twenty fifteen draft, rock best or
tenth on that list night if they redid

220
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:30.679
it. Ninth goals, No,
he has the tenth most most points amongst

221
00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:35.080
all those twenty fifteen draft picks.
So Chael versus mcdavids, Vegas and the

222
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:39.039
Oilers tonight down there in Vegas,
there should be a whole lot of fun.

223
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:43.159
It was fun again last night.
That that again, we'll deal with

224
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:46.519
it later. But that crack in
Dallas game was tremendous. And I've said

225
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.639
this before in the show. I
really like watching games in Dallas. That

226
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:54.360
crowd is really into it. The
camera angles there, it's very opinion are

227
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:56.159
fabulous, and they stand, they
stand and start. You can't see all

228
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.919
the ice, but it kind of
brings you in, it draws you,

229
00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:03.919
and I really enjoy agree. Here's
what's coming up on the show a DTMZ

230
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:07.159
is it just me? We want
to talk about the CFL draft as well,

231
00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:11.600
so we'll do that later. BC
Lions picked up seven players. Vanny

232
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:16.320
Sartini is going to join us from
the Vancouver Whitecaps. They are unbeaten in

233
00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:20.240
their last seven MLS matches now five
of those ended up in draws, but

234
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:24.080
and in beaten streaks, an unbeaten
streak. They host Minnesota on Saturday.

235
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:28.039
We love having Vannie on the show. He's going to join us just after

236
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:31.440
eleven o'clock. Big Ride, The
t Quitter Guy coming up later this hour

237
00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:37.480
and up next from Sakara Surprice to
talk about the Connucks and yeah, I

238
00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:39.799
know he wanted us to talk about
the Vancouver Cannucks and the Abbotsford connuckstion.

239
00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:43.320
Jeff used to work in cam Loops. O. Cam Loops wins last night

240
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:48.919
beats the Seattle Thunderbirds four one,
so that series is at two one now

241
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:52.360
in favor of the t Birds.
And like I said, Jeff used to

242
00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:54.559
work there, so I think he'll
have some thoughts on that. Jeff is

243
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:58.000
next from Sacaris and Price. It's
Donny and to only the team on check

244
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.919
on the end, like the team
is supported by Abel Auctions dot c A.

245
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:15.559
Closing your business where you can.
Helm Wednesday, Oliver our guest today,

246
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:18.759
brought to you by Able Auctions,
Able Auctions dot c A. We

247
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:23.240
talked yesterday a lot during GTMZ about
Gordon Lightfoot. I just want to say

248
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:27.879
hats off to Hockey and Canters dated
a whole lot about the late great Gordon

249
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:34.679
Lightfoot during yesterday's broadcasts. Gordon and
Chris leaving us earlier this week, Jeff

250
00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:38.559
Pattison joins us now from Sacaris and
Price, The Rink Why podcast and The

251
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.799
Hockey News. Jeff, thanks so
much for doing this. How are you,

252
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:45.679
sir? I hear you're headed out
to Abbitts for tonight. I am.

253
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:48.679
I'm gonna leave right after the broadcast
here. Hopefully I get there by

254
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.879
the drop of the pot. Yeah, looking forward to it. It might

255
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:55.960
be the final night of professional hockey
in this province for a while, so

256
00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:57.639
we'll see what happens. Abby.
Canucks have been closed in both of their

257
00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:00.240
games. You were talking about specialty
teams. Those have been a massive issue.

258
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.519
And Yeah, the Nil's whole letter
thing is fascinating to me. I

259
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:08.039
mean, it's so good in that
opening round against Bakersfield and four separate stick

260
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:12.319
fouls in Game two and in the
penalty box for the overtime winner the other

261
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:17.039
night. So yeah, he's got
sta out of the box discipline obviously against

262
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:18.920
the best team in the American Hockey
League. And I'm really curious with Jeremy

263
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.599
Carlton's going to do in goal.
He's been rotating Spencer Martin and Arthur Sillovs

264
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.640
if it was up to me,
and Jeremy hasn't consulted me on this,

265
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.440
but I'll give him some free advice
on Donny and Dolly. Arthur Sillovs with

266
00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:33.359
the Team MVP, I think in
the big picture for Sillovs and the organization,

267
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:38.599
playing in elimination games probably matters more
for the development of Arthur Sillovs and

268
00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:42.839
it does Spencer Martin. So I
would ride the Team MVP from this point

269
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:45.599
forward. If he gets a win
tonight, then do it again on Friday

270
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:49.079
and see where it goes from there. But I mean, it doesn't seem

271
00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:52.000
like there's much to pick between the
two goaltenders. They both can perform at

272
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.000
the American Hockey League level. But
if you leave your MVP on the bench.

273
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:57.599
It's going to take me back to
that two thousand and four Gray Cup

274
00:17:57.640 --> 00:18:03.559
when Whalley went with over Casey Printers. Yeah, yeah, I remember it

275
00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:07.400
well. We're hearing from our sources
e. Chris Faber that it will be

276
00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:12.799
Spencer Martin tonight. Jeff. Interesting
and I think a lot of people are

277
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.519
given what happened in Vancouver, We're
a little surprised to see Spencer plays so

278
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:19.720
well so far in these playoffs,
So it looks like it's going to be

279
00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:25.599
him. Elias Petterson not a finalist
for the Selkie. Can you understand why?

280
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.279
Jeff, Yeah, one hundred percent. And I saw a lot of

281
00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:32.640
chatter on social vote of being a
snub and Connucks Twitter is Conducks Twitter and

282
00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:36.000
takes a lot of things personally.
Look if Elias Petterson and we won't know

283
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:40.119
the final votes until the awards show
the week of the draft, my hunters

284
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:44.160
that Elias Petterson is going to get
some votes. If Elias Petterson is on

285
00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:48.920
the radar, let's say he finishes
somewhere between five and ten in the voting.

286
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:52.400
He's one of the top ten defensive
players in the National Hockey League.

287
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:55.480
That's something to builbond for a twenty
four year old who's only getting better.

288
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:59.880
But is he one of the three
best defensive players in the NHL right now?

289
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.440
I would say no to that.
Patrice Bergeron the Perennial finalists again.

290
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:07.680
If he wins this year's twelfth nomination, this would be a sixth win,

291
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:10.839
and it kind of feels like he's
gonna, you know, it'll be a

292
00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:15.200
Lifetime Achievement Awards sort of. If
he announces his requirement between now and the

293
00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:18.480
awards, then it'll be sort of, you know. Again, the career

294
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.319
body of work speaks for itself,
but even at this stage of his career,

295
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:26.920
Bergeron's winning sixty one percent of his
faceoff He was on the ice for

296
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:32.119
eighteen five on five bold against all
season. Think about that, playing against

297
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:34.799
the best players around the National Hockey
League. Miko Heisher, who was the

298
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.640
first overall picked in Peterson's draft class
so certainly one of his peers, set

299
00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:44.359
records for the New Jersey Devil's this
year in faceoffs taken and faceoffs one and

300
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:48.319
was a huge part of their penalty
kill. And Mitch Martyr led the National

301
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:51.960
Hockey League in takeaways and you guys
talked about him earlier that you know he's

302
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:56.680
a winger, not the conventional sulky
finalist perhaps, but one hundred and seven

303
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.599
takeaways one of fully, I think
it's seven guys, since they to tracking

304
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:04.960
takeaways as a statistic to reach that
hundred takeaway mark. So you know he's

305
00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:07.920
a thief out there on the ice, doing it a little bit differently.

306
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:11.480
And the common thread for all three
of those guys the Bruins had the best

307
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:15.960
penalty kill in the NHL, the
Devil's had the third best penalty kill,

308
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:19.759
and Toronto was fourth, and so
Pederson, you know, he showed that

309
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:23.000
he could bring an element of a
power kill to the Cadocks. But he's

310
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:27.400
guilty by association because they had the
worst penalty kill, they didn't make the

311
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:32.440
playoffs, and so again there's no
shame. This is no snub. He's

312
00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:36.079
trending in that direction. He does
so many good things. But another point

313
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:38.519
that you mentioned on where you know
you sort of say you have to see

314
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:42.200
him in Courson to see some of
the things away from the pot. Well,

315
00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:45.799
look, this is an award that's
voted on by the Professional Hockey Writers

316
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:52.799
Association. Fewer media members than ever
are traveling these days to see these players

317
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:56.240
home and away, and I would
say with new media, the voters are

318
00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:00.519
younger than they've ever been before,
and that probably lends itself to more stats

319
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:07.640
driven analysis when it comes to these
players. And so Elias Pederson had better

320
00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:12.200
than fifty percent in individual metrics of
possession you know, COURSI and shots four

321
00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:18.119
and goals and all the expected goals. Like his metrics are terrific. But

322
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:22.640
he's not one of the top three
this year. So no snob, but

323
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:26.519
certainly in years to come, I
could see him working himself into the conversation

324
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:29.960
Jeff down the high Highway. I
can't. I can tell you it's fun

325
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.960
watching Seattle. Boy, you know, they're missing their top two guys,

326
00:21:33.079 --> 00:21:37.519
mccannon, Barrokowski dropped four goals last
night, eleven shots first period. This

327
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:40.799
is a fun team to watch and
I you know, I the best thing

328
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.480
in the world would have been for
Pavelski to score overtime last night. But

329
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.319
they're Seattle again. Another victory and
they just keep rolling right along. Yeah,

330
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.279
they are relentless. The speed and
I don't know, in the first

331
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:56.839
period, cracking, we're killing a
penalty and Brandon Tannev put the afterburners on

332
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.000
and beat Miro High School and it's
one of the great theaters in the National

333
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.519
Hockey League in Tanna. With a
zoop just right past them created a great

334
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:07.640
scoring chance, and so it is
incredible. I mean, those guys are

335
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:12.799
dog on bone in every facet of
the game, whether it's defensively, uh

336
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:17.359
in on the four check, turning
pucks over. You saw what happened obviously

337
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:21.480
on the game winner, Jake got
injured. Per halfs would like another chance

338
00:22:21.559 --> 00:22:26.480
it punching that puck sort of back
out into the slot area, but hey

339
00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:30.039
bounced around and you know, pinballed
its way into the net. Whatever the

340
00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:33.039
case. You know, these guys
in the road record they did it in

341
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:36.880
Colorado in the first round, and
now they've got a win and a leg

342
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:40.519
up. Yeah, They've been fun
to watch it, and you know,

343
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:44.319
people keep thinking that somehow this is
a you know, a mirage and it's

344
00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:48.359
gonna just vanish all of a sudden. I think there is some sting power.

345
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:49.720
I'm not saying that the Crackers are
gonna do what Vegas did in its

346
00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:53.039
first season, but they've got one
round under their belt and off to a

347
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:56.920
good start here in round number two, Pavelski is thirty eight years old.

348
00:22:57.000 --> 00:23:00.720
Don had the good tweet last night
about j T. Miller. He's going

349
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:03.000
to be thirty eight some day and
it could be still playing for the Vancouver

350
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.519
Canucks. Set. By the way, at thirty eight, there's eighteen players

351
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.440
in the NHL this year that we're
thirty seven years or older. So Pavelski

352
00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:15.559
doing what he did last night with
Jeff was so at his age. It

353
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.640
was so fun to watch. Yeah, and certainly the part of the storyline

354
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:22.799
about him coming back from injury and
making the work that he did, And

355
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:25.960
wouldn't that have been something if he
had capped it with the winner and a

356
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:30.079
fifth goal all five goals for the
Stars. So it was an incredible night,

357
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:33.400
but not a storybook night ultimately for
Joe Pavelski and his hockey club.

358
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:37.240
But guys, it's not just Joe
Pavelski. Like you look. Ricky mentioned

359
00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:41.240
the fact that there are some you
know, graveyards in the National Hockey League.

360
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:45.319
Sidney Crosby in the nineties this year
for points. Yeah, his teammate

361
00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:48.720
of game Hulk and not far behind
Flowed Guru had an incredible season in Ottawa.

362
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:52.240
NJE Copetar did great things down to
Los Angeles Pavelski. Of course,

363
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:57.480
alexo Vetchkin is Alexovetchkin, and now
we're talking about some legends of the game

364
00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:00.079
there. I get that, But
all of the players that I just mentioned

365
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:03.559
are over thirty five, and they
all had seventy or more points to this

366
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:07.279
season. So it can be done. And I think a lot of people

367
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:10.599
would have said when Miller signed that
contract, if you could have a fifty

368
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:14.240
point JT. Miller for the last
couple of seasons, you know you would

369
00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:17.480
take that if you knew that he
could be that productive to that level.

370
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:19.960
We'll see how it all plays out, but I do think that these guys

371
00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:23.160
are in better shape than ever and
they keep themselves in better shape. And

372
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:27.440
JT. Miller certainly is a guy
that looks like he treats this seriously.

373
00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:30.920
And you know, the new deal
kicks in. Let's see how it goes

374
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:33.119
in the early part. But I
mean, there is potential. I suppose

375
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:37.599
nobody's got a crystal ball, but
there's a chance at J. Miller.

376
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:40.279
I'm not saying that he's gonna be
a seventy plus point guy at the back

377
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:41.960
end of the contract, but just
the way that he plays and as productive

378
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:45.559
as he's been as a Vancouver caduct, I think it's possible that he could

379
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:51.680
give you fifty to sixty points towards
the back end of this deal. Jeff

380
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:56.359
Rick wanted me to remind you that
you're hit with US is next to Wednesday,

381
00:24:56.519 --> 00:25:00.720
so we expect you to come up
with some sort of formula as to

382
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:04.200
where Connor Badard is going to fit
in the Cannucks lineup after they win the

383
00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:07.880
lottery? Is it torture at this
point for Connect fans to watch the draft

384
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:12.960
lottery? Don't you think most Connect
fans are just resigned to the fact that

385
00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:18.680
the lottery asolutely not gonna so,
so I don't sense torture in this fan

386
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:22.480
base. I think there's some degree
of resignation and people have set the bar

387
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:26.640
so low that you know it would
be an incredible surprise, obviously. And

388
00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:30.720
yeah, number one with Connor Badard, and I think we all just watched

389
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:33.680
what Macklin Cellabrini did and said over
the U eighteen, so we're gonna go

390
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:37.720
through this again next year perhaps.
But the thing about this draft class,

391
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.559
guys, is, I mean,
Badar gets all the focus, and understandably

392
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.519
so, but you know, talking
to people that watch the prospects a lot

393
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.759
closer than I do, like whether
it's Fantility, whether it's Leo Carlson,

394
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:52.079
Like, these guys would be top
picks first overall in a lot of draft

395
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:55.799
years. So you know, even
if you don't win the draft lottery,

396
00:25:55.799 --> 00:25:57.039
but you have the second pick or
the third pick like those teams, I

397
00:25:57.039 --> 00:26:00.920
think are gonna be pretty happy as
well because they're going to land game breakers

398
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.920
and game changers. But yeah,
I mean, we could be in for

399
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.920
a sizement shift here on the West
Coast if the lottery balls fall the way

400
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:12.519
that they're expected to. Anaheim adding
Connor Bdard through an incredible pipeline that they've

401
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:15.480
already got there in place, and
then you know, team like Sad Jose

402
00:26:15.799 --> 00:26:19.640
obviously I could use an injection of
a player like Connor Badard. So let's

403
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:22.839
see if he's setting up shop in
the NHL on the West Coast when those

404
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:26.440
lottery vall fall. Lottery balls fall
on Monday night, three percent chance of

405
00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:32.000
landing Connor Bdard ninety seven percent chance
if my math is correct, of not

406
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:34.160
landing Connorbinard. Keep that in mind, Jeff, thanks for this. We'll

407
00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:37.880
talk to you next week. All

thirty five, thirty seven thirty eighteen
players over the age of thirty seven in

423
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:07.279
the NHLUM, I want to say
this to you, don Ryan Suter last

424
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:11.759
night is thirty eight twenty seven minutes
on the blue line for Dallas. Corey

425
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:15.319
Perry's thirty seven seventy eight playoff games
in the last four years. Zach prez

426
00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:21.119
A thirty eight twenty one goals,
Giordanold thirty nine, Doney maple leafs.

427
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.200
He's in the lineup every day.
He's not being healthy. Scratch. Look

428
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:27.680
are they the exception or their rule? Well, I'm telling you eighteen players

429
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:30.599
is pretty good. Thirty there's a
lot of players who are that age who

430
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:34.880
aren't producing all that while or retired. There's true, that's true. But

431
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:40.160
I'm I want to say, with
nutrition and eating and specialized coaching, these

432
00:28:40.200 --> 00:28:42.440
guys are prolonging their's careers. But
they have to do it right. They

433
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:48.960
have to eat right. Uh No
Krispy Kreme stuff in in the summer twelve

434
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:53.039
months of the year. UM.
Joe Pavelski gets the four goals last night,

435
00:28:53.480 --> 00:28:56.160
which is a great story in of
itself. They did. They did

436
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:02.240
lose the game, though, but
he's coming off the injury two weeks previous.

437
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:08.599
In the Minnesota series, he gets
knocked out and literally and he comes

438
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:12.000
back that way, gets four goals. He all scored it in overtime as

439
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:15.240
well. But it wasn't just about
last night with Joe Pavelski and he turned

440
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:18.759
thirty nine, well just round the
corner in July, but his last two

441
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:22.960
seasons eighty one and seventy seven points. The point is, and I tweeted

442
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:26.960
it out last night as well,
you know, the point is that you

443
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:30.920
know, offensive production quality, offensive
production. It could be done in today's

444
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:34.759
National Hockey League, even at a
so called advanced age. So I just

445
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:40.880
thought maybe that would make knock fans
buying large, who buying large weren't thrilled

446
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:44.279
with the JT. Millers contract.
Maybe it makes him feel better because that

447
00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:45.440
was the knock, you know,
like, what's he going to be doing?

448
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:49.519
And he had a decent season this
year offensively, not ninety nine points

449
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:52.480
but in the eighty two, which
is fine. Maybe makes him feel better

450
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:56.559
what he can do in in the
future. All JT. Miller's ever done

451
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.960
in the city since the day he
arrived on his produce. I think he's

452
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:03.759
over a point per game in the
four years. He's been phenomenal that way.

453
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:07.799
And let's wait a couple of years
before we start predicting what he's going

454
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:10.599
to be at thirty five, thirty
six, thirty seven. I think this

455
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:12.960
guy's got a lot left in the
tank. He's a beast. Talket loves

456
00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:15.680
him, and I you know what, let's take it a year by year

457
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:19.440
with JT. I think he just
said something there that's the key, and

458
00:30:19.480 --> 00:30:23.799
that's Rick Talkett loves him well.
And I also think that he goes the

459
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:26.720
other way. I think that's the
more important thing that I think. I

460
00:30:27.039 --> 00:30:30.799
think JT. Miller this is nothing
against Boudreau or Travis Green. I think

461
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:34.039
he has a whole lot of respect
for Rick Talkett. He has talked a

462
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:41.359
lot about how Rick Talkett can understand
the type of player he is because it's

463
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:45.720
similar to the way that he plays. Yeah, JT. Miller isn't dropping

464
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:49.240
the gloves like Rick Tockett. He
used a different era, but you get

465
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.880
the feeling that he really likes playing
for him, and you know, Rick

466
00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:59.799
Rick Towkett clearly somebody who likes JT. Miller because we all remember at the

467
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:03.559
art of Rick Hawkett's tenure and with
Vancouver he made a point of saying,

468
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:06.799
I'm not going to overplay my stars. That's right. What happens he takes

469
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:11.200
a look at JT. Miller playing
and ends up arguably overplaying twenty plus every

470
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:15.680
night. And all these guys on
Twitter that are predicting JT. Miller's going

471
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:18.319
to go to the Rangers going to
go to Boston. Every team that drops

472
00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:21.839
out now is going JT. Miller's
going there, apparently on conducts Twitter.

473
00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:25.480
Let me ask you something. They're
top two centers, Johnny, they're looking

474
00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:27.359
for a third line center. You
know why they're looking for as the third

475
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:30.680
line center. The depth up the
middle took a hit when Orvette left.

476
00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:37.200
If you're gonna trade JT. Miller, you have to get back and absolutely

477
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:40.200
phenomenal, top sixth center. You
think those guys grow on trees? Do

478
00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:41.720
you think the other teams J T. Millers don't even supposed to be a

479
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:45.920
center? Yeah? Right, and
so's And there's another big reason to keep

480
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:49.480
JT. Miller. When Peterson needed
one hundred points, what did Taka do?

481
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:52.960
He moved Miller to the wing.
These guys don't grow on trees,

482
00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:57.359
And what are you expecting to get
in return for Miller just out of curiosity?

483
00:31:57.519 --> 00:32:00.079
You better get a top six center
back from Miller or else you get

484
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:06.039
you're screwed up the middle again.
Well, and that talk about Miller going

485
00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:09.839
to Boston almost started immediately after two
seconds. Ye Cannucks Twitter, Okay,

486
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:13.359
Miller to Boston. Boston has got
no draft picks left. They got no

487
00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:16.200
draft picks. That's you know,
well, as as somebody's followed the Canucks

488
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:19.960
for a long time, that's what
I would expect in return. You mentioned

489
00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:24.359
a top sixth center, but uh
no, the young center. They've got

490
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:28.359
nothing there. He's got nothing,
nothing on the farm. That's just there's

491
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:30.119
the other problem the Canucks at Donnie, they got no young kid on the

492
00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:35.720
farm ready to challenge for a center
spot. So the depth in the organization

493
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:38.799
is not going to allow them to
make a Miller trade. But it's everyone's

494
00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:42.400
got him going to every city in
the NHL Miller. So we're talking so

495
00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:45.880
much about Joe Pavelski, we forget
that. The cracking story is incredible.

496
00:32:47.079 --> 00:32:51.200
You know. I think one of
the reasons we're not talking a lot about

497
00:32:51.200 --> 00:32:54.839
it is because of what happened with
that was that was the incredible expansion story.

498
00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:58.720
You know, twenty eighteen, you
make a Stanley Cup final in your

499
00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:02.920
first year of existence. This is
this is peanuts compared to that. But

500
00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:09.079
the Kracking with their speed and uh
balanced like their balanced drug, their four

501
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:14.400
line. They also I thought the
big stat from last night other than the

502
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:16.400
final score and that was a lucky
goal. But bottom line, they did

503
00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:20.599
they did score. I'll get back
to that in a second. But the

504
00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:24.000
Cracking out hit the Stars forty seven
nineteen. Oh, you don't think of

505
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:30.200
them this overly aggressive team, but
that that's stat's really significant gored for you

506
00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:32.519
know, first of all, outen
your punched the puck back out into the

507
00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:37.440
fray. Maybe he Jeff mentioned he'd
like to have that one back. Gordon

508
00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:38.920
was passing the puck back to the
point. That's what he was doing.

509
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:42.960
Hits the shin pat and the back
on a stick and into the net it

510
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.599
goes. So there was a real
goal element of luck there. But they're

511
00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:51.960
up one nothing and who knows what
could happen with the Cracking you have,

512
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:54.839
Like honestly, you could sit and
say Ambon is gonna win the cup,

513
00:33:55.279 --> 00:34:00.680
Leaf's gonna win the Cup. Anybody
do you really know? Nobody, it's

514
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:04.400
guesswork. It's guesswork. There's injuries
to happen yet, there's injuries we don't

515
00:34:04.400 --> 00:34:07.920
know about. Possible injuries coming up
to any team in the next week or

516
00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:09.960
so. It's hard to predict right
now, Donnie, okay, um,

517
00:34:10.519 --> 00:34:14.880
let's do this. Uh. Speaking
of Rick Talckett, he was what's the

518
00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:16.320
name of this? Why we have
talked to you yet? Ryan? How

519
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:21.400
are you? By the way,
Missing Curfew? He was on Missing Curfew?

520
00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:27.519
That's with an apostrophe Missing Curfew podcast. They managed to get Rick Talkett.

521
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:30.840
Does anybody here have any idea what
it's like to have a Canack guest?

522
00:34:31.880 --> 00:34:35.239
We don't know. Kannaka is a
guest that we know. No,

523
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:38.480
we're on the bleep list. We've
asked for Rick Talket for months and months.

524
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:44.199
We don't get them. It's just
it's pretty bad. We criticize the

525
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:47.480
power play one day. It's probably
my fault to talk about the seats.

526
00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:51.840
Well, they probably are you more
than anyone else, Ryan, But what

527
00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:54.880
they got I don't think. We've
asked for Canuck's guests for weeks and weeks

528
00:34:54.880 --> 00:35:00.159
and weeks on end, and it's
just embarrassingly like just toss our Well,

529
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:01.519
we don't want to whine, We
don't want to whine, but why not

530
00:35:01.679 --> 00:35:07.360
gone? Why not be honest?
It's it's pretty bad. Yeah, we'll

531
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:10.280
just continue promoting their product day after
day after after day. It's just they

532
00:35:10.360 --> 00:35:14.679
we request something, they just toss
it in the garbage and off they go.

533
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:19.360
Beautiful, beautiful way to conduct business. We're not rights holders and that's

534
00:35:19.400 --> 00:35:22.960
maybe the way he thinks these days. But it's can you get check to

535
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:27.280
get the right first one? But
Missing Curfew got him? Yeah? Oh

536
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:30.280
yeah, miss Curfew? How long
has that podcast? Beauty? Are they

537
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:32.280
Vancouver based? What are they based? Shane O'Brien is channel Brian is the

538
00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:36.079
main host, good guy. I
don't know if he's the main host or

539
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:37.800
not. They have like seven hosts. Yeah, they're one of these podcasts

540
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:42.760
that have fifteen hosts. Yeah right, it's him in Scotty Upshell. Okay,

541
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:45.400
well too then yeah close, No, but I think there are others

542
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:49.880
involved in it. But yeah,
they're two main characters. So Rick talk

543
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:52.960
it and yesterday I want to say
this that, um, yesterday we had

544
00:35:53.079 --> 00:35:57.639
was it? Yesterday? We had
Bruce on Monday Bruce spoodro was Monday,

545
00:35:57.800 --> 00:36:00.239
Yeah, Monday, Okay. We
had him on and there were some issues

546
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:05.199
with his camera. It was an
extreme close up and I don't know what

547
00:36:05.239 --> 00:36:07.800
it is with kind of coaches,
ex coaches, current coach, coach.

548
00:36:08.159 --> 00:36:13.719
This was not much better. There's
a lighting issue here, but you get

549
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:16.559
the idea. You can hear what
he's saying. Here's Rick Cockett from it

550
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:20.159
earlier this week. I'm really up
on this thing. Yeah, you know,

551
00:36:20.199 --> 00:36:22.760
it was Monday, Monday, Monday. Was it Monday, which would

552
00:36:22.760 --> 00:36:24.480
be earlier this week? Yeah,
yeah, that's right. Single. This

553
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:28.920
is Rick Tockett. We got this, Derek. This would be the Quinn

554
00:36:28.960 --> 00:36:34.559
Hughes clipp This is Rick Tockett on
the possibility of Quinn Hughes being named Canucks

555
00:36:34.599 --> 00:36:37.960
captain. I don't know what I'm
gonna do yet. We're not we're not

556
00:36:37.000 --> 00:36:39.719
in a huge rush. But if
you if, if if I can tell

557
00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:43.320
you and I'm only here, like
I said, been there four months from

558
00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:46.159
day one to day you know,
the fourth day and the like what was

559
00:36:46.199 --> 00:36:51.639
that one hundred and twenty days later, Huggy has really kind of made that

560
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:54.960
that tra directory to be a captain, like he's he's done some things that

561
00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:59.480
are uncomfortable. Like he said,
some things that are uncomfortable you have to

562
00:36:59.480 --> 00:37:01.320
do, to say to teammates,
order a coach, or to put your

563
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:06.000
balls on the line. That's what
captain's do. It's not just about organizing

564
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:09.480
a team party. It's about putting
your teammates first and also being able to

565
00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:12.840
go into a coach officers, hey, man, talk, you got to

566
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:15.320
back off and practice. I got
this, well, I guarantee you the

567
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:19.280
next game we'll be ready to play. So I love that about him.

568
00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:23.280
There you go. I think it
is mostly about organizing the team party,

569
00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:28.480
but there are other things that come
into consideration. I think the big hint

570
00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:32.159
with Queen Hughes was him talking,
grabbing the microphone, talking to the fans.

571
00:37:32.199 --> 00:37:36.480
Yeah, final home game of the
regular season. I think that final

572
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:38.559
home game of the season period.
I think that was the indication that that's

573
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:43.719
the direction that connects are leaning.
More so than Elias Patterson, I think

574
00:37:43.719 --> 00:37:46.199
it's gonna be maybe even JT.
Miller. I think it's gonna be Quinn.

575
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:50.119
Think Miller's candidate as captain will be
Quinn Hughes. There. I think

576
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:52.800
that's the way it's leaning for sure, Okay, for sure, So we

577
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:57.480
got to kind of clip on and
we thank Rick for that. Speaking of

578
00:37:57.559 --> 00:38:00.719
ricks, you've got some business to
do, all right, all. Arnold

579
00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:04.599
Palmer designed Worcester Golf Club is getting
ready to open May twelfth, and there's

580
00:38:04.719 --> 00:38:08.079

00:38:08.119 --> 00:38:12.800
Dolly around at golf for two at

We will announce the winner this Friday,

585
00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:30.320
yep, yep, a couple of
days from now, this Friday. So

586
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:34.800
we golf on the Saturday? Is
it right on the Saturday up at Worcester,

587
00:38:35.159 --> 00:38:38.360
and we think al for that.
I prefer to have a guy in

588
00:38:38.440 --> 00:38:42.960
my cart that's not very good,
well, because it makes me feel better.

589
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:45.679
Yeah, you don't like golfing.
I don't like golfing with good golfers,

590
00:38:45.719 --> 00:38:49.880
Donne, because they hit four hundred
yards and then you come in and

591
00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:52.480
then you know, then you're trying
to hit a four hundred yards and it

592
00:38:52.480 --> 00:38:55.079
goes five feet left and you do
hit it four hundred yards the other way.

593
00:38:55.239 --> 00:38:59.679
No. Yeah, So anyways,
I prefer to have a hacker slasher,

594
00:39:00.119 --> 00:39:02.559
you know. Can we put that
in the contest somewhere? Yeah,

595
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:08.559
and trick a hackers rolls and regulations. Taylor's good. Taylor wants to handicap.

596
00:39:08.920 --> 00:39:14.119
Yeah, okay, uh not true. Can we put that in there

597
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:17.639
somewhere in this board? You could? You could? You have to have

598
00:39:17.760 --> 00:39:22.079
never have played golf. You have
to submit your recent scorecard. No,

599
00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:27.119

brand new golog yet there right people who

600
00:39:27.159 --> 00:39:31.840

00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:36.719

Rich and Richmond last night might have been

630
00:41:36.760 --> 00:41:39.760
a first. The referees for the
Lease Pathers game both from Richmond, Kelly

631
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:46.159
Sutherland and Trevor Hanson. Good work
by both Richmond Minor Hockey uh PRIBB.

632
00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:54.880
Good work by both RMHA alumni Richmond
Minor hockeyst Richmond Minor try steyan Yeah,

633
00:41:55.519 --> 00:42:01.280
among others. Okay, there's a
controversy guarding the Oilers Vegas Golden Knights series

634
00:42:01.559 --> 00:42:06.719
that has people in a bit of
a tiff. They're angry. Games one

635
00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:13.239
and two of the Golden Knights series. We're announced to take place tonight for

636
00:42:13.400 --> 00:42:20.519
Game one, Game two on Friday, Yesterday, after much time had passed,

637
00:42:20.679 --> 00:42:24.880
the NHL finally released the entire schedule
for the second round and there was

638
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:30.519
a change. Game two in Vegas
pushed to Saturday. So this is Daniel

639
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:36.000
Nuja Bowman from the Athletic in Edmonton. You'll notice Game two, originally scheduled

640
00:42:36.000 --> 00:42:37.599
for Friday, has been moved to
Saturday. This is a colossal screw up

641
00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:42.159
in the NHL. Many oil fans
have already traveled to Vegas. That made

642
00:42:42.199 --> 00:42:46.480
plans for a Friday game to change
now is amateurish. And on top of

643
00:42:46.559 --> 00:42:51.159
this, there's been no explanation as
to why there's a move. It's not

644
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:57.920
building availability, no problem there.
I don't even think it's TV because well

645
00:42:57.960 --> 00:43:00.719
I'll get to that in a second. There's a lot of over the TV.

646
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:04.719
But ESPN is the basketball and Friday
Night, not T and T,

647
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:07.199
and this game was supposed to be
on T ANDT, so it can't be

648
00:43:07.320 --> 00:43:10.159
that. So I don't know why
this occurred, but I could understand why

649
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:15.559
a lot of people are angry,
and a lot of people were a lot

650
00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:16.559
of people were saying, you know, did Dan oh they got to stay

651
00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:19.760
another day in Vegas? Well,
hold on a second, that can cost

652
00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:22.840
people a lot of money to change
flights, another night in a hotel,

653
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:25.440
more spending money. All that,
I understand, Vegas is a nice place

654
00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:30.960
to be in terms of travel too, but there are certain expenses l catering

655
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:36.519
to the road fans of the home
fans. Well, there's people. There's

656
00:43:36.559 --> 00:43:39.199
people. When the Nights tweeted this
out, there's people in Vegas tweeting going,

657
00:43:39.280 --> 00:43:43.199
hey, I planned, like,
I cleared my schedule for Friday night.

658
00:43:43.239 --> 00:43:45.960
What's going on? So people weren't
exactly thrilled in Vegas either that this

659
00:43:46.039 --> 00:43:51.039
occurred, but there was a lot
of people critical because the NHL took a

660
00:43:51.119 --> 00:43:53.400
long time to put out their schedule. It was moments before the first games

661
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:58.480
last night. And this is your
job, Johnny. The Toronto Maple Leafs

662
00:43:58.480 --> 00:44:00.159
are not playing on a Saturday night
and round, which is strange. I'll

663
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:05.559
give you that. So your entire
sports and that paid eight billion or whatever

664
00:44:05.559 --> 00:44:08.440
the hell they shade history. They
pay all that money to the NHL and

665
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:14.320
all year long, Hockey Night in
Canada is Saturday night in this country and

666
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:19.119
the biggest team in this country.
Now the league goes mah, who cares,

667
00:44:19.360 --> 00:44:21.920
We don't care. About that the
biggest team in this country. It

668
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:23.039
is, it is. It's gross
for me to say it, but it

669
00:44:23.119 --> 00:44:25.800
is. Let's be honest, it
is. You're becoming a least fan.

670
00:44:27.000 --> 00:44:29.800
Yeah, what are they successful?
Now? You're gonna wear a hat tomorrow.

671
00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.639
I'm being truthful and honest here.
But the bottom line is TNT and

672
00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:37.519
ESPN didn't want that, and so
as usual the NHL, well, what

673
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:40.599
do you need? Well, anything
you want, no problem. There's Canadian

674
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:44.440
fans who cares. Screw them,
it doesn't matter. Well, that's part

675
00:44:44.840 --> 00:44:49.920
it's part of it. There,
there's no question the NHL knows. Gary

676
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:54.519
Bettman knows it could be played midnight
on a Tuesday and up here we're gonna

677
00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:58.920
watch exactly right, and the game
could be a yellow Knife Yeah, and

678
00:44:59.039 --> 00:45:00.800
you know, and people show up
and then and they'll watch. Don't know

679
00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:04.599
that and they're there, are there, they and they take advantage of it

680
00:45:04.719 --> 00:45:07.760
and they've ran into and don't get
me wrong, I know it's not easy

681
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:13.280
because all these buildings are multi use
buildings. Shania twains in Edmonton for two

682
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:16.280
nights, so that's become a problem. They've actually had to cancel another concert

683
00:45:16.320 --> 00:45:21.239
in Edmonton disturbed. As in Edmonton, they've already had to move that because

684
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:25.079
of to get this Oiler's gaming,
they gets disturbed, not for Roger's place.

685
00:45:25.119 --> 00:45:29.719
Apparently climate pledges a ton of events, so they've been dancing around that.

686
00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:32.639
And we saw what happened in the
NBA. Janet Jackson's concert in Atlanta

687
00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:37.280
got pushed. Yeah because of the
Hawks. Yeah, because the Hawks were

688
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:40.960
able to force I think there was
a game six. Yeah, anyway,

689
00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:45.159
it gets the Celtics, so that
happened. Look, you should text Kelly

690
00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:47.199
mcremmon, a friend of the show, find out what the hell happened.

691
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:52.159
Yeah, I am very cures.
Maybe you should. Anyways, you should

692
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:55.960
text Kelly mccremmon a lasker. I'm
curious. Hey, you know right,

693
00:45:57.840 --> 00:46:00.079
I am curious, and I do
feel bad are the Oilers fans that would

694
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:05.079
have traveled again. It's a destination
place and now all of a sudden,

695
00:46:05.159 --> 00:46:07.840
the NHL just goes, oh no, we're just going to change it for

696
00:46:07.880 --> 00:46:09.239
another night. Really, and there's
nothing for Oiler fans. Wow. Well,

697
00:46:09.280 --> 00:46:13.239
because you know what's really cheap,
Brian, is a plane ticket of

698
00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:17.199
Vegas. It's not cheese to change
a plane ticket if you if you fly

699
00:46:17.360 --> 00:46:20.920
out of Bellingham. Yeah, I'm
talking about us. I'm not. I

700
00:46:20.960 --> 00:46:23.559
don't know what it is from Edmonton, but it's relatively very cheap to go

701
00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:27.159
fly out of Bellingham. But the
change of plans, what if, like,

702
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:32.719
you know, there's the hotel to
change a vacation. Can you have

703
00:46:32.800 --> 00:46:37.360
an Oiler shirt on underneath Superman?
I'm just the uproar would be the same

704
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:40.760
here. If this was involving the
Vancouver Conox, it would also be a

705
00:46:40.760 --> 00:46:45.840
problem. Only one gate a game
on Friday night in the NHL with the

706
00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:49.440
second round schedule, and that's the
Devil's game, and by the way,

707
00:46:49.599 --> 00:46:54.000
and like and now, after ripping
into the the television coverage and all of

708
00:46:54.079 --> 00:46:59.880
that, there's this. Uh.
This is from the NHL yesterday, Round

709
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.639
one of the twenty twenty three Stanley
Cup Playoffs, the most watched first round

710
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:09.639
of all time across North America.
So what Taylor said, They could have

711
00:47:10.599 --> 00:47:13.760
the game in the middle of the
night, it would have no problem at

712
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:17.280
all. More than ten million viewers
across North America watched the Sunday game sevens

713
00:47:17.960 --> 00:47:22.320
Florida and Boston and then Seattle and
Colorado, and the list goes on to

714
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:25.480
other things. So the amount of
respect the sound like up playoffs get from

715
00:47:25.519 --> 00:47:29.480
people who aren't necessarily hockey fans,
or least you don't think they are,

716
00:47:30.039 --> 00:47:34.559
it's pretty eye opening. Yeah.
Multiple times Charles Barkley has been on T

717
00:47:34.760 --> 00:47:37.880
and T and said he's not watching
the game, he's paying more attention to

718
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:42.360
the hockey. I mean he's a
huge hockey fan. He's made it very

719
00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:46.280
good. Yeah, Nasty sees buddies
with the head coach of the Rick Well,

720
00:47:46.280 --> 00:47:49.960
he's also buddies with the head coach
in Tampa to John Cooper, John

721
00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:53.239
Cooper. Yeah, yeah, but
Rick and him played in Philadelphia around the

722
00:47:53.280 --> 00:47:57.559
same time. Yeah. In fact, Rick Talker will be on Charles Barkley's

723
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:05.639
podcast next week. That's a joke
because the missing curfew. Wow, shot

724
00:48:05.920 --> 00:48:08.880
a little shot anyway, I think
we're done for shots at them for the

725
00:48:09.000 --> 00:48:15.719
day coming up next. White Caps
manage might have been the lowest. Ye,

726
00:48:15.159 --> 00:48:19.199
it's all about the audience. I
heard Nina laughed over there. Vanny

727
00:48:19.239 --> 00:48:22.559
Sartini, white Caps manager. He's
gonna join you guys next. The Caps

728
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:27.360
are hot when it comes to being
unbeaten. That is seven ye seven games

729
00:48:27.400 --> 00:48:30.719
in a row. Yeah, there's
also an interesting quote from Girard Gallant.

730
00:48:30.800 --> 00:48:32.679
We'll get to maybe later in this
second hour that just came out. The

731
00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:37.039
Rangers are cleaning up their lockers right
now and Gerard Gallant not happy to be

732
00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:40.719
asked about his future in New York. We'll talk about that more in the

733
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:49.280
second hour. Donny Dolly, the
team out check Wednesday, and all of

734
00:48:49.320 --> 00:48:53.119
our guests today, I brought you

head coach of the white Caps,
a regular on our show, Vanni Sartini.

739
00:49:14.599 --> 00:49:16.760
Vanni, thanks for doing this,
sir. How are you very good?

740
00:49:16.800 --> 00:49:22.599
Guys? How are you very very
well? Unbeaten in seven MLS matches?

741
00:49:22.679 --> 00:49:23.920
Vanni? What do you like about
the way your team is playing right

742
00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:30.320
now? A lot of teams,
I would say the two main things are

743
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:35.280
the quality of our game. So
we are in every game that we played

744
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:39.360
of this unbeaten streak, we've been
the team that played more than the oppositions

745
00:49:39.679 --> 00:49:45.559
shot more to gold than the opposition. We tried to be always i would

746
00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:52.360
say, on the front foot,
keeping possession going forward, but also our

747
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:58.039
solidity, that our tactical shape,
our tactical solidity defensively when we lost the

748
00:49:58.119 --> 00:50:05.920
ball, we rarely consider chances to
to the opponent's team. We didn't concede

749
00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:09.159
goal in the last four games.
So yeah, those are the two things

750
00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:14.280
I want to anticipate. You what
I'd like to see more. I'd like

751
00:50:14.360 --> 00:50:17.320
to see my team scored more goals. Yeah. But but but it's not

752
00:50:17.639 --> 00:50:22.320
just that value, it's the whole
the whole league. Goal scoring is down.

753
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:27.960
What do you have to do to
put the ball on it more?

754
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:32.480
And maybe explain why this is a
trend in MLS. I think I think

755
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:37.639
it's a very good point. I
think the trend in MLS it's because,

756
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:47.800
I would say, the level of
quality intents of the quality of the game,

757
00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:53.199
the attention then the coaches puts on
the detail went on the roof in

758
00:50:53.320 --> 00:50:58.280
MLS. If we compare with I
came to North American in twenty sixteen,

759
00:50:58.719 --> 00:51:02.599
in seven years, it's like,
literally there's no there's no comparison on how

760
00:51:02.719 --> 00:51:07.599
the teams are much more organized now
than it was before, and and the

761
00:51:07.719 --> 00:51:12.639
quality of the of the game as
going up and up and up. So

762
00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:15.880
at the same time, you need
to find solution and you need to find

763
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:22.639
more chances for your players to be
closer to the goal and trying to score.

764
00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:25.639
Trying to score goals. I think
we are actually doing. I think

765
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:30.559
the numbers are saying to us that
we had the team who create we're creating

766
00:51:30.639 --> 00:51:37.119
more chances in the in the league. And does the stats it's called the

767
00:51:37.199 --> 00:51:44.320
expected goals. It means that it
gives you a percentage of goals on every

768
00:51:44.360 --> 00:51:47.199
shot that you take, and we
are the highest and the expected goals in

769
00:51:47.239 --> 00:51:51.199
the league, so it means that
we are arriving there. It's uh,

770
00:51:51.559 --> 00:51:57.079
it's it's a matter of being i
would say more clinical on the box and

771
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:02.039
sometimes even to do the right it
passes when when we are we are close

772
00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:07.119
to the close to the goal,
because sometimes we maybe there's an option that

773
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.719
is even better and we choose the
wrong option. So that's one of the

774
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:15.440
things that we're working on this week
in training. Vanny seven goals against the

775
00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:19.960
nine games, that is second best
in all of Major League Soccer. Four

776
00:52:20.039 --> 00:52:23.400
straight shout outs. You gotta be
happy with those numbers. Yes, yes,

777
00:52:23.519 --> 00:52:30.320
I am. And of course I'm
happy with our defensive game. That

778
00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:35.519
is not meaning that I'm just happy
with my defense line. Like in soccer,

779
00:52:35.679 --> 00:52:38.639
when you defend, eleven players are
defending, and the way that you

780
00:52:38.719 --> 00:52:43.719
defend is totally related to the way
to you attack. And of course if

781
00:52:44.360 --> 00:52:46.679
our back line and our goalkeeper they
have to face Like I don't know,

782
00:52:46.840 --> 00:52:52.039
I always say ten situations instead of
thirty situation a game. It's easier for

783
00:52:52.199 --> 00:52:59.480
them to make a good performance.
But those are numbers that make me very

784
00:52:59.519 --> 00:53:07.360
happy because if we keep continue this, if we keep if we keep maintaining

785
00:53:07.559 --> 00:53:12.280
our average gold conceded less than one
goal per games, for sure we und

786
00:53:12.320 --> 00:53:14.960
the play off at the end of
the year. Vanny. In some sports

787
00:53:15.039 --> 00:53:20.400
they say it ties like kissing your
sister. You got five ties second in

788
00:53:20.519 --> 00:53:22.880
the Major League soccer, even a
couple of wins out of those ties,

789
00:53:22.920 --> 00:53:25.800
and you're higher up in the rankings. Um, you want to get rid

790
00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:29.920
of some of those ties and turn
them into wins. Yeah. Yeah.

791
00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:34.679
First of all, I'm an only
child, so I don't know what kisses.

792
00:53:36.519 --> 00:53:38.760
College football, they say a tie
is like kissing your sister. I

793
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:44.239
know, I know, I know, I know, I know. Yeah,

794
00:53:44.760 --> 00:53:47.639
yeah, I would have loved especially
I don't mind, to be honest,

795
00:53:47.719 --> 00:53:51.639
the ties that we did the way, the three ties that we did

796
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:57.960
in in Minnesota, Austin, and
LA. Because it's really really hard to

797
00:53:58.039 --> 00:54:01.440
win away in the league, and
every points that you do away it's I

798
00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:07.519
would say it's a gain point.
I'm a little bit frustrated for especially the

799
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:10.119
last one in Colorado because against Dallas
at home, it was an open game.

800
00:54:10.480 --> 00:54:13.840
Dallas is a very good team.
You can tie with them. The

801
00:54:13.920 --> 00:54:19.960
last one against Colorado we definitely should
have won. We were the best team

802
00:54:20.000 --> 00:54:24.480
in the in the on the field, and I think we had to transform

803
00:54:24.599 --> 00:54:30.320
those ties in wins when we had
clearly the best team and trying to win

804
00:54:30.840 --> 00:54:36.079
twin more games. Then we talk
about scoring more goals before we let you

805
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:40.039
go. Have you seen much of
Levante Johnson who has been popping in goals

806
00:54:40.159 --> 00:54:45.559
left and right for WFC two this
season and episode? Do you think he

807
00:54:45.639 --> 00:54:49.960
can help? Yeah? I saw
well. Actually, Levante came with us

808
00:54:50.000 --> 00:54:57.079
in preseason, so we spent all
the preseason with us because we believe a

809
00:54:57.159 --> 00:55:00.559
lot in him. We offered him
a contract with the second team and we

810
00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:05.119
hope that he's gonna do the same
path that Hally Ahmed and Simon Bacher they

811
00:55:05.360 --> 00:55:07.480
did last year and coming to the
first team. He's doing very well.

812
00:55:08.840 --> 00:55:16.039
I'm gonna give you a scoop or
next week. We love scoops. Next

813
00:55:16.119 --> 00:55:21.800
week we're gonna play in the Canadian
Championship in York and it will be the

814
00:55:21.880 --> 00:55:28.079
first time that Levante will be part
of the the team of the first team.

815
00:55:28.199 --> 00:55:29.800
I don't know if it will start. No, I don't know if

816
00:55:29.800 --> 00:55:32.119
you play or no, but it
will be with us next Wednesday in New

817
00:55:32.159 --> 00:55:38.360
York to play the Canadian Championship.
Guys, does know that Vannier or Scoop

818
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:43.440
actually doesn't? You are guys?
You are the first Oh my godness?

819
00:55:43.719 --> 00:55:50.000
Yeah wow. Are we gonna have
to start paying you? No, no,

820
00:55:50.199 --> 00:55:53.559
guys, I'm I I'm all in
for the circulation of good news.

821
00:55:53.679 --> 00:55:58.840
So that's the very nice Hey Vannie
for summer. It sounds like your team

822
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:02.079
hasn't played its best yet. Have
I got that right? Yeah? Well,

823
00:56:02.079 --> 00:56:07.079
I would say that we're playing a
very good brand of soccer. We

824
00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:08.760
need to just have the I would
say to go to the next level and

825
00:56:09.039 --> 00:56:15.280
capitalize the chances. When we'll do
it, I think we're gonna really really

826
00:56:15.360 --> 00:56:20.320
start to I would say, have
fun. I invite a lot of people

827
00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:23.880
to count to busy plays and see
our games because we're really really close.

828
00:56:24.199 --> 00:56:27.719
I think that this is here.
This is the year where we can make

829
00:56:27.760 --> 00:56:30.840
something special here. Thanks for this, Thanks for the scoop. Vannie checks

830
00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:35.519
in the mail check ate it.
Thank you, Thank you, Bet,

831
00:56:35.840 --> 00:56:38.920
Vanni Sartini. It's fun to talk
to you, coach of the White Camps.

832
00:56:38.960 --> 00:56:43.239
We mentioned there are goal scoring issues, and again this is a trend

833
00:56:43.559 --> 00:56:47.519
all around a major league soccer Eleven
goals in nine matches so far. Five

834
00:56:47.559 --> 00:56:51.559
of those goals game in one game
that was the five Neil victory. That's

835
00:56:51.639 --> 00:56:55.840
right against Montreal again. The White
Camps host Minnesota on Saturday at PC Place.

836
00:56:57.159 --> 00:56:59.760
Paul question, we'll update it.
That's next. Donnie Dolly the team

837
00:56:59.840 --> 00:57:05.760
much, Donny and Dolly. The
team is supported by able Auctions dot c

838
00:57:05.960 --> 00:57:14.400
A closing your business where you can
help. I'm not too sure. Well,

00:57:14.400 --> 00:57:16.760

We're gonna take you with this pick

840
00:57:16.880 --> 00:57:22.920
right now. Thank you. Appreciate
it, really appreciate the world to me.

841
00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:25.239
We are thrilled to get you.
We were surprising you fell this far

842
00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:28.960

wait to have you. And we'll be

843
00:57:29.039 --> 00:57:31.199

00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:36.159
as coming to camp, which starts
quickly, so um, well, we'll

845
00:57:36.199 --> 00:57:40.440
be in touch with you, all
right, all right, So congrats there.

846
00:57:42.000 --> 00:57:44.239
They're gonna announce it in a couple
of minutes, so you can keep

847
00:57:44.280 --> 00:57:49.599
it quiet till they announce it on
TV. That'd be great. Awesome,

848
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:55.320
have a good one. That was
yesterday CFL draft. Rick Campbell, Lion's

849
00:57:55.360 --> 00:58:01.559
head coach, co general manager,
talking with France Is Bemmy the Lions first

850
00:58:01.599 --> 00:58:07.039
pick. He was picking a ninth
overall defensive lineman Southern Utah for Montreal.

851
00:58:07.079 --> 00:58:08.440
I grew up an Alouettes fan.
I think I'll be able to make that

852
00:58:09.679 --> 00:58:15.119
move to caring about the Orange and
Black. So they ended up picking seven

853
00:58:15.199 --> 00:58:17.639
players, six on defense, six
on defense, and they do expect Bemmy

854
00:58:17.719 --> 00:58:22.159
a camp next week, you know, barring an NFL contract, but he

855
00:58:22.320 --> 00:58:24.840
is expected to fight for a spot
on this team. Donny three defensive backs,

856
00:58:24.880 --> 00:58:29.199
two linebackers, one d lineman and
one offensive lineman. Is what the

857
00:58:29.239 --> 00:58:31.639
lines took in the CFL draft yesterday. Took a lot of offensive guys.

858
00:58:31.719 --> 00:58:36.320
Last year. They went this way
to help with special teams. Special teams

859
00:58:36.440 --> 00:58:38.119
was a big problem for the lines
this year. So they want to address

860
00:58:38.159 --> 00:58:44.920
this year year. And we should
mention that picked first overall offensive lineman out

861
00:58:44.960 --> 00:58:49.480
of Fresno State. He's an offensive
lineman. Is this like the best name

862
00:58:49.559 --> 00:58:53.440
ever? Dante Bull? And one
of the reasons we well, the reasons

863
00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:57.840
we bring this up is because we
want to keep our jobs. He's from

864
00:58:57.960 --> 00:59:02.159
Victoria, Victoria Native where Check is
located. Check. Congratulations to boss,

865
00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:08.440
friends and family, and to Dante
himself. Dante Bull picked first overall by

866
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:12.320
the Red Blacks. Was he allowed
to play any position? Any other positions?

867
00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:15.119
No? No, it was a
rule, like honest, Bull,

868
00:59:15.360 --> 00:59:19.360
your offense, you could be a
defensive lineman. Yeah, but like I

869
00:59:19.519 --> 00:59:22.599
just don't, you know, punter, I don't really. Unfortunately, sorry,

870
00:59:22.679 --> 00:59:25.679
Dante, You're not allowed to play. You're not allowed to be a

871
00:59:25.719 --> 00:59:30.199
punt back. In the day,
guys played a lot of positions. Not

872
00:59:30.360 --> 00:59:32.159
anymore. Yeah, but Bull.
This has to do with the name though

873
00:59:32.239 --> 00:59:36.480
I know, I get it.
Yeah, back on the leather helmets days,

874
00:59:36.760 --> 00:59:39.239
we understand that guys played on both
sides of the ball. It was

875
00:59:39.320 --> 00:59:43.320
the back in the old days.
Yeah, leather helmets though, face cards,

876
00:59:43.440 --> 00:59:47.159
yeah right right, the leather helmet
like, well, it's all they

877
00:59:47.239 --> 00:59:51.199
had back It's innovation. That's how
things start running. I guess. Yeah.

878
00:59:51.480 --> 00:59:54.239
You know what's unbelievable is that.
And I didn't play football as a

879
00:59:54.320 --> 00:59:58.159
kid. Did you know, Ryan, you didn't play anything? Yes,

880
00:59:58.280 --> 01:00:04.000
I did soccer, been over this
intramural No, no, no, sorry,

881
01:00:04.719 --> 01:00:06.960
okay, okay, I know he
did. Okay, I played on

882
01:00:07.039 --> 01:00:12.320
a soccer team, yes you seven
eight nine, Okay, I didn't play

883
01:00:12.400 --> 01:00:15.599
football. So like one of my
kids, we go to the Lions and

884
01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:20.599
it's a great, great event where
they sell off their equipment. Yeah right,

885
01:00:20.960 --> 01:00:23.440
usually just before Christmas after their season
is and I end up getting a

886
01:00:23.519 --> 01:00:28.480
helmet for the thing is like five
hundred pounds. Oh they are, I

887
01:00:28.719 --> 01:00:30.559
know. I don't know how they
do it versus the leather helmet, which

888
01:00:30.559 --> 01:00:35.320
I'm guessing was in five hundred pounds. Quite amazing. You can want not

889
01:00:35.440 --> 01:00:38.679
just we walk around, it'd be
enough to just walk around flying down a

890
01:00:38.760 --> 01:00:43.280
football field hitting people their weapons,
Donny, Donny's right. I was at

891
01:00:43.320 --> 01:00:45.239
a Lions practice and one of the
guys to a helmet on me. Heavy

892
01:00:46.320 --> 01:00:51.719
vision is covered. Hold on a
second, Why would I asked? I

893
01:00:51.840 --> 01:00:53.000
was at a practice, I asked
the guy. I said, let me

894
01:00:53.320 --> 01:00:57.159
try helmet on. So I tried
the helmet on the mid practice, not

895
01:00:57.599 --> 01:00:59.880
before the practice. You know how
the media get together on the side.

896
01:01:00.239 --> 01:01:04.119
Back in the day, we had
more than five media in Vancouver for sports.

897
01:01:04.400 --> 01:01:06.840
Anyways, I put it on,
Donnie, and it was heavy as

898
01:01:06.880 --> 01:01:09.239
hell, and and the vision,
your vision is cut right off. I

899
01:01:09.360 --> 01:01:14.000
don't know how these guys play football. Your vision, You're just like you

900
01:01:14.079 --> 01:01:15.880
can't see anywhere. You imagine Ricky
puts on the helm at the coach,

901
01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:20.400
Hey you over there, get in
there, yeah, or forgets to take

902
01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:22.119
it off, drives home. I
could. I could be a kicker.

903
01:01:22.519 --> 01:01:27.559
A kicker. I could be.
Have you ever kicked in football? Not

904
01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:30.880
because the kickers are usually you know, skinny guys that you know, they

905
01:01:30.920 --> 01:01:31.760
don't run around. You don't have
to run it right, you have to,

906
01:01:32.199 --> 01:01:35.880
you know, kickers, that's the
job anyone could do. Donna,

907
01:01:35.880 --> 01:01:42.000
did you tell Louis Pasaca that anybody
could do that? Are you serious?

908
01:01:43.039 --> 01:01:45.400
Are you anybody could do that job? Most people can be a kicker.

909
01:01:45.519 --> 01:01:49.280
Come on, how far do you
think what I'm talking about? Kickers don't

910
01:01:49.360 --> 01:01:52.400
They're not want to be a kicker. Not Kickers are the number one reason

911
01:01:52.480 --> 01:01:53.320
I wouldn't want to be a kicker. You don't want to miss the game

912
01:01:53.360 --> 01:01:57.800
winning field goal and and walk and
you mentioned you know you're the smallest guy

913
01:01:57.880 --> 01:02:00.840
on the team. You walk into
that locker room and you blew it thirty

914
01:02:00.880 --> 01:02:05.599
five yards and super I don't want
to walk into that locker Why are you

915
01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:08.119
thinking of the glass half half empty
thing? There was a chance to be

916
01:02:09.639 --> 01:02:15.000
but I thought the pressure on a
kicker versus a lot of other positions in

917
01:02:15.119 --> 01:02:17.840
sport, it's enormous. Hey don't
he look at the Lions kicker last year

918
01:02:17.840 --> 01:02:21.760
they brought him in. He lasted
what four weeks? He missed a lot

919
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:23.679
of few goals, So Bingle,
it's it's a tough position. That was

920
01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:29.000
so I'm talking physically physically I could
pull off you know you couldn't. Yeah,

921
01:02:29.039 --> 01:02:32.559
I'm not more okay, you gotta
have leg string, Like how far

922
01:02:32.719 --> 01:02:36.719
can you lift your leg to kick. I was. I played soccer.

923
01:02:36.800 --> 01:02:38.360
I was a striker, so I
know a little bit about I go out.

924
01:02:38.440 --> 01:02:43.400
If I was a kicker, i'd
go old school toll punch right like

925
01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:47.280
like a dropkick, not not a
not a soccer style kicker. Oh yeah,

926
01:02:47.320 --> 01:02:51.159
okayld school head on, straight on
kicker. Don't a lot of the

927
01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:57.599
kickers name cutler tying up the shoe? Remember that you tie that used to

928
01:02:57.920 --> 01:03:02.280
curl the uh the up of his
boot up? No, sorry, I'm

929
01:03:02.320 --> 01:03:06.519
not I'm not familiar. Okay.
Wouldn't it make sense to wear steel toad

930
01:03:06.559 --> 01:03:08.320
boots? I think it would,
right, It would add a little extra,

931
01:03:09.320 --> 01:03:14.199
it would be happy. The steel
boot is heavy, dumb, dumb.

932
01:03:14.280 --> 01:03:16.840
Those the helmet they managed the kicker. You don't want a heavy foot,

933
01:03:16.880 --> 01:03:21.960
I want you nice lightfoot. But
think of the extra power yet with

934
01:03:22.079 --> 01:03:25.000
the steel. What about the guys
like Rich Carlos comes to mind, Jason

935
01:03:25.079 --> 01:03:29.960
Elam the barefoot kickers? Yes se, remember the bare foot kickers? How

936
01:03:30.000 --> 01:03:31.519
do they do it? Like?
Good lords? Franklin? I think I

937
01:03:31.559 --> 01:03:37.280
think I've got some many like I
have no idea what the philosophy was there,

938
01:03:37.760 --> 01:03:40.599
especially like when you're playing like it's
got a rain bay in Decemba,

939
01:03:42.079 --> 01:03:46.599
it's got a hurt barefoot kicking.
And yet you see she was a kickery

940
01:03:46.920 --> 01:03:52.119
that well. At fact, that's
where she lost her shoe. It would

941
01:03:52.199 --> 01:03:54.239
flying into the stands one day.
He never got it back. This from

942
01:03:54.280 --> 01:03:58.840
Tyler Rick couldn't kick a fifteen yard
field goal. I've kicked forty yards and

943
01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:01.360
was a toad kicker. No,
I disagree to kicker. I was on

944
01:04:01.480 --> 01:04:05.280
BC Place on the fuel once,
me and the helmet. Now Colin Metcap,

945
01:04:05.320 --> 01:04:08.239
the PR guy. We did a
one hundred yard dash. I beat

946
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:11.840
him. That that's not kicking.
I know. I'm just telling you I

947
01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:13.599
could do it. I could do
it. I could pull it off.

948
01:04:13.639 --> 01:04:17.880
I'm telling you right now you could
kick how far you think? Yeah,

949
01:04:18.280 --> 01:04:23.000
that's not getting it done. But
you're saying that a pro football you could

950
01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:27.880
be a kicker. Not in pro
I'm just saying at the park, Ryan,

951
01:04:28.039 --> 01:04:30.159
you could play offensive line, you
could probably do defensive line. I'm

952
01:04:30.199 --> 01:04:33.360
just saying I'd be a good kicker. That's all I'm saying. You get

953
01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:38.440
choked up about this. I got
a frog in my throat. You've got

954
01:04:38.519 --> 01:04:41.920
a pull question to deal with.
Yeah, let's take care of that frog,

955
01:04:42.079 --> 01:04:45.119
and let's hear the bet ninety nine
dot in at poll question. All

956
01:04:45.159 --> 01:04:47.440
right here here it is the bet
ninety nine dot that poll question. Joe

957
01:04:47.480 --> 01:04:51.960
Pavelski's thirty eight years old vancoor fans, any chance that makes you feel better

958
01:04:53.159 --> 01:04:59.559
about JT. Miller's contract? Sexty
six percent say no, uh. JT's

959
01:04:59.639 --> 01:05:03.840
new deal kicks in next year,
and let's take it year by year before

960
01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:09.039
we predict Donnie what he's gonna be
like in seven years, which is impossible.

961
01:05:09.079 --> 01:05:11.599
What would he be like? What
it was steel toad, boots on

962
01:05:13.239 --> 01:05:15.599
undeath? What would JT. Miller
be a good kicker for the BC lines?

963
01:05:15.719 --> 01:05:18.400
I don't know, but anyways,
yeah, okay, go ahead,

964
01:05:18.440 --> 01:05:23.559
Hey, look at kickers though they're
thirty nine, thirty nine, forty,

965
01:05:24.000 --> 01:05:28.679
that's the one position in sports.
Pavelski He's gonna be thirty nine in July

966
01:05:29.159 --> 01:05:32.039
and he's still playing the Stanley Cup
playoffs and excelling. Yeah, he could

967
01:05:32.119 --> 01:05:36.559
retire that fans should feel better about
that given Pavelski's success. Yes, he

968
01:05:36.599 --> 01:05:40.239
could retire from the Stars and he
could be kicker for the Cowboys. I

969
01:05:40.320 --> 01:05:44.079
mean the problems well, apparently it's
easy. Yeah, anybody could do it.

970
01:05:44.199 --> 01:05:46.480
Anybody. Have you talked to the
Cowboys at all? No? I

971
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:50.840
haven't. I'm just seeing in football
such a tough sport. I can't play

972
01:05:50.880 --> 01:05:54.480
the hitting positions. I think I
could pull it off as a kicker,

973
01:05:54.559 --> 01:05:57.480
That's all I said. I'm gonna
text Matt Baker, get you out to

974
01:05:57.559 --> 01:06:01.280
the line already. Probably. I
think I can hit thirty thirty five in

975
01:06:01.440 --> 01:06:06.760
equipment? What's equipment a football riot? They still don't have anything other than

976
01:06:06.880 --> 01:06:13.280
shoulder pads. They still wear pants
pads making go all the way there to

977
01:06:13.440 --> 01:06:16.960
make it look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Yeah. Anyways, so mid practice,

978
01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:23.239
you asked a guy for a who
was before me? One time it was

979
01:06:23.400 --> 01:06:27.920
Dan Payne. I was a Lions
practice. What's the name of the park

980
01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:32.840
over here? Um? Livingstone Park? Is it over across Chilling? Not

981
01:06:33.039 --> 01:06:36.159
dude, Chill. I don't want
to go on that route that's right behind

982
01:06:36.239 --> 01:06:39.880
us. It's two feet away.
Okay, Yeah, and the Lions actually

983
01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:43.320
used to practice, now they used
to. Dan Payne starts talking to me,

984
01:06:43.360 --> 01:06:46.960
I'm I'm a reporter. And this
is when Greg Mons volcanic. Greg

985
01:06:47.039 --> 01:06:51.039
Mints my favorite. He had just
taken over the Lions, and Dan Payne

986
01:06:51.079 --> 01:06:55.519
starts talking to me like in report. We're you know, we have mutual

987
01:06:55.599 --> 01:06:58.559
friends. We're tighting. The offensive
lineman for the Lions used to be a

988
01:06:58.760 --> 01:07:01.440
wrestler as well. Where we're talking, all of a sudden they hear this

989
01:07:01.519 --> 01:07:09.119
whistle to stop. The tire.
Practice stops. Report your guy, never

990
01:07:09.320 --> 01:07:14.119
do that again. I look over. Dan Payne is left laughing. The

991
01:07:14.239 --> 01:07:19.079
whole thing, the whole practice stop
again. Reporter. Yeah, that's what

992
01:07:19.239 --> 01:07:24.079
he called me. Foot tall.
Mons would yell at me on the phone

993
01:07:24.079 --> 01:07:26.639
all the time. You always say
to me, don't let the facts get

994
01:07:26.679 --> 01:07:29.159
in the way of a good story. Dollyway. This was in front of

995
01:07:29.400 --> 01:07:33.039
several athletes. It was extreme.
How big did you feel like? Yeah?

996
01:07:33.360 --> 01:07:38.400
Maybe Greg was. Yeah, I
had steal to the boots on Greg

997
01:07:38.519 --> 01:07:41.559
monst He was a good, good, good guy. What are you doing

01:08:09.079 --> 01:08:12.719
they do in fact, like game
Warren, Yeah, we have. I

1005
01:08:12.760 --> 01:08:15.320
think I took some photos before.
I don't think Derek has them anymore,

1006
01:08:15.320 --> 01:08:16.880
but there were. I don't know
if they're game warm but there were.

1007
01:08:17.479 --> 01:08:20.000
They have the mini helmets, but
they also have a full size to get

1008
01:08:20.079 --> 01:08:24.399
those on the mini helmets, we
should have a lions helmet, right,

1009
01:08:24.960 --> 01:08:29.199
you should wear a mini Alma throughout
the entire show. I've got this visual

1010
01:08:29.199 --> 01:08:32.159
of making a leather helmet running on
the field, gonna kick his field goal.

1011
01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:36.359
School music playing marching band. They
do have helmets there. I know

1012
01:08:36.399 --> 01:08:40.159
they do because they have helmets there. I've seen them, but in front

1013
01:08:40.159 --> 01:08:42.720
of the laptop, not the big
ones. Not the ones they do.

1014
01:08:42.760 --> 01:08:45.560
They have a full sized helmet full
Well, why don't you get one so

1015
01:08:45.680 --> 01:08:47.600
we can put one on the table
though. We Matt, we talked at

1016
01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:51.720
Matt Peaker when he was here dropping
off the jerseys. He's gonna get you

1017
01:08:51.800 --> 01:08:55.880
a lins helmet. He's working at
that helmet weighs more than Baker. I

1018
01:08:55.920 --> 01:08:58.680
don't think you can bring it in. Get some offensive lineman to bring it

1019
01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:01.640
in in front of the laptop pain. He was a good guy like that.

1020
01:09:02.119 --> 01:09:05.560
Did you know Jascite Park the box
of series two upper deck hockey cards,

1021
01:09:05.760 --> 01:09:11.760
the card of the Day Thomas Tatar
of the New Jersey Devils. Devil's

1022
01:09:11.800 --> 01:09:15.159
series gets underway this evening. Yeahs
by the way, you were, you're

1023
01:09:15.239 --> 01:09:19.039
angry about this black and red matchup, like, yeah, both teams.

1024
01:09:19.520 --> 01:09:23.840
Did you not feel that way about
the lightning? Yeah? It was bad,

1025
01:09:23.960 --> 01:09:26.159
right, Blue and white, yeah, it's and it is quite came.

1026
01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:29.000
Yeah, I didn't like it.
I hated it when Buffalo used to

1027
01:09:29.000 --> 01:09:31.960
be black and read the Hawks those
sabers. Yeah, Hurricanes better with the

1028
01:09:32.119 --> 01:09:35.720
yellow and blue Devils. Yeah,
but no, just there was too much.

1029
01:09:35.920 --> 01:09:40.680
Yeah, it was a trend.
Yeah, much like teal teal was

1030
01:09:40.680 --> 01:09:45.479
a trend, way too much till
Yeah, the Grizzlies jumped on that,

1031
01:09:45.560 --> 01:09:51.560
although they called there's turquoise. Does
anyone remember the Detroit Pistols wearing with that

1032
01:09:51.680 --> 01:09:57.439
horsehead horrible Chris Flames. That was
during the Grizzlies era when they in here

1033
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:00.840
and like, come on, the
red and blue what happened? Man?

1197
01:23:21.000 --> 01:23:27.199
right into it? Yeah? Okay, This one is all about Pavelski all

1198
01:23:27.199 --> 01:23:30.159
the new training science diets. Players
are getting better younger. We could probably

1199
01:23:30.199 --> 01:23:35.119
apply that to players extending their careers
barring significant injuries. Miller will be fine.

1200

Josh in Nanaimo. Everybody's different,

still playing at thirty eight thirty nine,

1203
01:23:47.680 --> 01:23:51.079
God bless you and you're doing a
good job. Donnie, Is it just

1204
01:23:51.279 --> 01:23:55.800
me? Mbai Raj? Is it
just me? But didn't Bing Crosby used

1205
01:23:55.840 --> 01:23:59.000
to spend a lot of time in
Vancouver. In fact, I believe he

1206
01:23:59.079 --> 01:24:02.680
actually invented the Canadian tuxedo. So
we'll look into that. Look into that,

1207
01:24:02.880 --> 01:24:05.880
the all denim. Look you want
to google that, right, We'll

1208
01:24:05.920 --> 01:24:09.840
get right, We'll get right on
that. What do you got? Is

1209
01:24:09.880 --> 01:24:12.960
it just me? Did anyone catch
the signal that Paul Maurice sent to the

1210
01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:15.800
officials at the end of the Leafs
game five one on power plays? What

1211
01:24:15.920 --> 01:24:19.720
else is nowon dawn and sickamoose?
You know what? A little bit upset

1212
01:24:19.800 --> 01:24:24.319
of Maurice was with the officiating and
made a little hint that the Leaves are

1213
01:24:24.359 --> 01:24:27.560
going to get the brakes from here
on in. Well, we saw him

1214
01:24:27.600 --> 01:24:30.680
with the don't if you have the
picture here Ryan, but the hands signals

1215
01:24:30.319 --> 01:24:38.079
very discreetly at the bench. Ye
numbering saw that the power plays uh Toronto

1216
01:24:38.199 --> 01:24:41.640
versus Flora wasn't happy. He wasn't
happy, est shop any chance little game

1217
01:24:41.720 --> 01:24:45.279
and Chip well, and then post
game he said five to one, he

1218
01:24:45.399 --> 01:24:47.479
said we as opposed to waving his
arms and screaming. That's good. I

1219
01:24:47.600 --> 01:24:50.159
like that. Post game he said, we need to be prepared to always

1220
01:24:50.199 --> 01:24:56.720
have more killing penalties more than the
opposition. Well, keep in mind who

1221
01:24:56.880 --> 01:24:59.399
was the head coach of the Leaves
at one point. Yeah, and also

1222
01:24:59.520 --> 01:25:03.159
I will he gave this symbol after
Ryan O'Riley got smacked. Like that was

1223
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:06.680
a clear high stick. The officials
originally missed it, but it was a

1224
01:25:06.760 --> 01:25:10.279
clear high stick, Like, I
don't know, you thought this was some

1225
01:25:10.399 --> 01:25:13.000
sort of gang symbol at one point, I think, well, I thought

1226
01:25:13.000 --> 01:25:16.079
it was something for the Van Buren
boys. Yeah. By the way,

1227
01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:21.640
so I'm looking this up that a
company historian the roots of the double denim

1228
01:25:21.720 --> 01:25:28.279
can be traced back to nineteen fifty
one, and in fact one Bing Crosby

1229
01:25:28.439 --> 01:25:31.239
wearing the old denim. Look it's
black and white, but that was the

1230
01:25:31.479 --> 01:25:34.560
photo of Bing. Is that when
he was in Vancouver? Yeah yeah,

1231
01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:39.520
piss Vancouver ban. But no,
the d D, the all denim,

1232
01:25:39.600 --> 01:25:45.479
the Canadian tuxedo to me is the
denim shirt with jeans. Yeah right,

1233
01:25:45.600 --> 01:25:49.439
yeah, Well this is I guess
that's a denim jacket and jeans. Yeah,

1234
01:25:50.520 --> 01:25:54.239
it's the word, Derek. You
have something to say if the jeans

1235
01:25:54.319 --> 01:25:59.920
jacket and jeans Canada with them the
denim shirt. I guess ooh yeah,

1236

1255
01:27:28.680 --> 01:27:30.199
Is it just me? Or?
Was the first round the most watched

1256
01:27:30.199 --> 01:27:35.199
in North America because most people wanted
to witness another Leafs choke? How sweet

1257
01:27:35.239 --> 01:27:39.319
it would have been. It's a
good point, very good point. It

1258
01:27:39.399 --> 01:27:41.199
might have been. You know,
the other way too. A lot of

1259
01:27:41.239 --> 01:27:44.960
people want to see the Leafs win. But that was definitely part of it.

1260
01:27:45.199 --> 01:27:46.640
I would think for some people.
Anyway, we got a big time.

1261
01:27:47.600 --> 01:27:50.199
Is it just me? Or?
Should JT. Miller be traded to

1262
01:27:50.279 --> 01:27:55.079
the Rangers precisely because they have a
young center and the fregner that we could

1263
01:27:55.119 --> 01:28:00.279
get. That's from Mike Roch from
Burnaby. H. I'm gonna tell you

1264
01:28:00.359 --> 01:28:06.000
right now Lafrenie had zero points against
the Devils and seven what oh did I?

1265
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:11.000
Mike? What what I say?
We'll say it again, Mike Rotch

1266
01:28:12.359 --> 01:28:15.159
say it at faster? Never mind, No, don't. Oh why do

1267
01:28:15.279 --> 01:28:18.720
these guys do this? Like?
It's just that's why? Why? Because

1268
01:28:18.840 --> 01:28:21.279
you know people sit there? How
do you come up with this? Who

1269
01:28:21.399 --> 01:28:24.640
shits there with a pen and paper? I you know, I went through

1270
01:28:24.720 --> 01:28:27.600
the dickenside. Who reads it?
You know, I went through all this

1271
01:28:27.680 --> 01:28:30.079
stuff. You know, since since
these inboxes started people, why do you

1272
01:28:30.199 --> 01:28:33.239
do it? I thought it was
a serious question. I was gonna re

1273
01:28:33.800 --> 01:28:39.720
never Mike from Burnaby's Burnaby, what
are your guys for crying out loud?

1274
01:28:39.920 --> 01:28:43.920
Anyways? Listen, let me say
something. We try to recover. No,

1275
01:28:44.039 --> 01:28:45.439
I'm not You don't want to gonna
move on from Mike. No,

1276
01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:48.079
it actually was a good submission.
Though it actually was a good submission.

1277
01:28:48.159 --> 01:28:53.560
It was remember Lefrenier for Miller that
first of all, that's not happening.

1278
01:28:53.800 --> 01:28:57.880
Second of all, Lefreni had zero
points against the Devils, zero zero?

1279
01:28:58.000 --> 01:29:00.720
Can I say, can you spell
zero a capital? Who's his form?

1280
01:29:00.079 --> 01:29:02.720
Mike? Yeah? And he's not
a full time center man. He plays

1281
01:29:02.760 --> 01:29:06.159
mostly on the wings anyway. Yeah, that's not gonna happen. Jakie Miller

1282
01:29:06.279 --> 01:29:12.720
drafted by the who's his former agent? Who's the friend? His former agent?

1283
01:29:13.600 --> 01:29:16.560
Emily Cast on game the Canucks had
interest in the friend you early in

1284
01:29:16.600 --> 01:29:19.319
the season. They tried really hard
to get him. I don't see him

1285
01:29:19.399 --> 01:29:25.079
trying to go on to go after
him anymore. All Right, I trusted

1286

that to me. Maybe our messiest show
