Right now, Donnie and Dolly playoff post game immediately after the connection Predators tonight.
But there are some things that our customers should know about Ryan. Yeah,
not only am I explaining this to the customers. I know I'm also
explaining it to you guys as well. We're not that smart. So tonight,
due to scheduling conflicts, the show will be live moments after the game,
but streaming on the Checkplus app as well as our YouTube channel. And
if you want the direct link to the YouTube live Twitter stream, by the
way, you can find it on our Twitter account. That link right there
on the bottom will take you to the live stream on YouTube as well as
Checkplus, as well as our audio stream. Then at eight o'clock. Again,
this is barring any kind of overtime or anything. As long as everything
ends as it should, we could come on normally, yes and check after
eight if there's over yes, if not. I knew that the postgame will
air at eight o'clock on check. It'll also air as a replay at eleven
thirty on Check tonight, and of course we'll have the podcast as usual and
our interview with John John Garrett on YouTube to watch on demand as well if
you miss it live. Yeah, in case people don't know, John Garrett
joining us on each and every show, Tany and Delly playoff postgame. And
this is all because we can't get in the way of Wheel of Fortune and
Jeopardy. Yeah, so we're getting bumped because the Wheel of Fortune, which
I showed that I grew up watching. I really enjoyed it. I still
watch it. Excuse for the brain and Jeopardy. You know what, maybe
you should watch it some more. Yeah, and you should watch it twice
a day, yeah, three times. Okay, So much news coming out
of Nashville Game six Canucks and Predators, and of course the Canucks with the
three to one series lead at one point, and you look at what's happening
with the Leafs in Boston. I'm not saying this is going to happen,
but buckle up, uh connok fans, this is going to be interesting.
So the big news coming out of there other than the fact that there's a
game four o'clock start. By the way, Thomas Drantz tweeting this out a
little while ago, within the last hour, do we have this our friend
Thomas Drantz is going to join us on tomorrow's Donnie Dully the team on check
Archer's join us in the next segment. I was gonna join us in the
next segment. Sorry that there's a lot going on here. Yeah, right,
Archer's coming tomorrow if you want. I don't know if Trance will be
here, but you can come in, don't you know I normally come in
to do extra work. Just talk, just talk to nobody. There's nothing
new. I do that a lot, getting people's names wrong, left and
right. That's the story for off the camera Archer's Sea loss. The first
goalie off the ice at Knock's practice this morning, the morning skate, your
projected game six starter is Archer's Sea loss. Casey to Smith will be his
backup. And I know Ricky had a problem this. No, I didn't
not surprised though, Donny. I was told talking about what I told you.
I had it early this morning that the Sea Loves was going to start.
Donny you know that. I know well you had that, but you
said you had a problem with it because you're worried about the Conducks having your
resign stop. I will say this this Smith lost his job because he was
injured, a minor injury. But I there's two things you gotta do.
Is you got to listen to Rick Talckett, uh really really hard. I
forgot the word I was going to use. Listen are you talking yesterday.
All this guy does talk at his rave about Sea LOFs all the time.
Yeah, Ian Clark drafted Sea Loves, talking loves Sea Loves the poor.
Uh to Smith, he didn't have a chance, and you know he didn't
have a chance. It was going to be Sea Loves in the last game.
It was going to be well, there was there was no reason.
Like like Smith and losing a job because of injury, it happens, Well,
it does happen. It happens, don it happens. Look up Tom
Brady in the world of sports I'm talking about. But the Smith that did
nothing wrong losing his job to injury, but has archer Sea laws give you
any reason to think that he can't handle the situation, Like, nobody's blaming
him. Uh, you know certainly for the game five loss, absolutely blow
one one nothing lead at home, a goal that you know may or may
not or should have not been challenged. No, so nobody's blaming him.
So I'm not surprised at all, although you're going with somebody with less experience.
Yeah, and if he takes the ball and runs with this stunny they
win tonight, or let's say he wins in game seven. It changes the
dynamics of who's going to back up next year for Dempkop. You can't now
now you're getting into what I want to get telling you it could change the
dynamics two weeks ago. Two weeks ago, I told you the conoc we're
going to take a good, long, hard run at the Smith to resign
him. But if Sea Loves gets the ball and runs with it here,
I think he's your backup next year. Hold on a second, isn't hasn't
it already changed? It is no matter what happens, the Offis are telling
you that the organization and the goalie, coach and the coaching staff are loving
Sea Lobs right now. I was looking forward to the old fashioned talk show
argument. Here. I'm telling you that's what I told you. I think
this Sealovs kid is changing the perception. And you said an hour ago you
thought that you were making a mistake here. I didn't say that. I
told you Sea Lobs was going to get in Talktt loves him, me and
Clark loves him, and he's got to let in like five bad goals Donnie
left for him to get kicked. Let's get down to Nashville, Rick Cockett,
and more on Rick Cockett in a second. Here's Rick Cockett on the
decision to start Archer's she LOFs. Do we have that clip? Do we
have that clip? Do we have that clip? Did you get that?
You told me we had the clip. No, I told you we had
the tweet. Okay, let's go to the tweet dead. We already showed
the tweet from Drants said we had a clip. No, no, no,
oh sorry sorry sorry, this is my fault. This is my fault.
Oh, I said was talk. It was very funny at the starter's
media availability. But he said the same thing he said yesterday, which is
I'm not saying anything about my goalies. Is game time decision. That's it.
I didn't cut that clip. I cut the clip about him talking about
the Jack Adams and him talking about another Cannucks. So we got Thomas Drants
coming in today and tomorrow, and we also have a phantom Rick tocket clip.
Yeah. I think we're a little too wired for this game tonight.
This is the result of doing all these post games, you know, putting
in fourteen, sixteen, eighteen, nineteen hour days. This is the result
here, right here, you want Rick talking. This is Rick talktt Yes,
like an hour ago in Nashville on the goalie subject, don't ask it
please? Are you are you prepared to tell us about your starter? No?
No, What do you like about the idea of starting Archer's Sea loss?
Well, I think he's I think he's played really well for us,
you know, just like Casey's played well. I mean, goalten has been
a strong part for this organization all year, and uh, it's something that
we're getting. We're getting good goaltend into calmness, a lot of calmness.
He keeps bringing that up a lot. Well, No, I think he
values that. Well, it's not just the goaltending position, but uh,
he, like a lot of coaches at any level, really value that quality
in any player, but especially when you're talking about NHL playoff game, first
round, second round, whatever the case may be. Being calm and cool.
You have to stop the puck first of all. But I think they
really really value that. I know they do. And he's only twenty three.
He's showing nerves and he's not showing nerves. Yeah, well, he's
showing you that he does. He the big moment isn't getting to him.
He's not showing here. Yeah, he's not showing nerves and he's not letting
the big moment get to him. He's twenty three years and by the way,
he didn't have a great year in Absford this year. You know,
he's had his ups and downs in Absford this year. But for him to
come in like he has in Game four, he's been super since that.
For sure. We'll remember that goal that we showed again from center ice when
he was in Absford and the thinking was, well, it's I mean a
long time before he gets back into the National Hockey League and here he is
starting playoff games. You know, also showing nerves, is I think young
Ryan Henderson Henderson is, yes, you told me we had the clip and
then we didn't have that GEP and then yes, it took a while the
end. We want things to run smoothly here, right When are we going
to start that? Right now? Okay? Okay? Meanwhile, also,
by the way, before we go any further, any other lineup changes,
I know he looks like especially a practice yesterday, Dawn, we're not going
to look at any lineup changes. And some people are Look, they've got
twelve goals in five games. They got eighteen shots per game in the series,
very low numbers. But he's not changing any thing. He's going with
the same lines as the same lineup. So despite the only despite the problems
with the offense, he's sticking with the same lineup. Were much choice,
right, Well, he can. He can mix it up, you can
change it up, you can put it right. Okay, you can put
the lotto line together if you want to. But in terms of events,
you know, you know, but he's going to stick with the same lineup.
Meanwhile, our lineup might change on Monday, who knows, or Saturday,
which apparently we're going to be working. Rick Tocket. Meanwhile, today,
and this is no surprise, gets nominated for the Jack Adams Award Coach
of the Year in the National Hockey League, up against Rick Bonus with the
Knuck connection there and the coach he's been facing in this series, his friend
Andrew Burnett of the Nashville Predators. Two Knuck coaches have won previously the Adams
Award, Pat Quinn in ninety two and ROBERTA. Lauongo in seven. Remember
Elaine Vino's speech, oh right, right, right right. Vignoe has been
up for it twice Tony, you know, in the other but he wonted
O seven and let me just explain here, he said afterwards, this is
Roberto's I remember that award that was you know. Arguably they were Roberto's past
season as a vancover canucksle a Vino wins and then pack Quinn in ninety two.
Pac Quinn also won with the Flyers back in nineteen eighty. Donny,
if Talkeett doesn't win this, I'll be shocked. I I will be shocked
if he doesn't win this. Nobody expected the Caducks to do what they did
this year. He's the reason why he changed the culture through teaching and accountability.
You know, he didn't let them read their press press clippings when they
were number one of the NHL doted and he kept him even keol So,
Bonus and Brunett didn't do the same thing as in Winnipeg, and God bless
him. They did good jobs too, but I don't think they did the
job Talckett did. The corps responded to him for the first time in the
last three coaches. This corps responded to this coach more than they responded to
the last two corps. Right from training camp, and he also was willing
to give up on a thirty nine goal scorer because he wasn't playing the right
way. Not many coaches do that. No, that's a great point.
I think the expectations for the Canucks were nowhere, to the point, why
not nowhere, but to the point where their grand puba, the man in
charge of the team, the president said, and I'm you know, paraphrasing
here, everything had to go right for them just to make the playoffs,
a twenty six point improvement over last season, and also spending a large and
Winnipeg could say the same thing, I guess, spending a large part of
the season in first place overall, which nobody, nobody ever would have guessed.
And I think we had a couple of poll questions something to the effect
of do you really want the Canucks to win the President's Trophy because there seems
to be a curse involved with that. But that's where they were for a
large part of the season, in first place overall. You know, forget
making the playoffs, that was that was a done deal a long time ago.
Absolutely, they were right on top of the league and some people picking
them to win the Stanley Cup before the playoffs started. I think first think
you're right. I mean, I think got the first best move since you
got here. I forget about all the trades, the draft picks, everything.
It was hiring talkt do we have Rick Talkett talking about the Adams Award.
We have this clip, okay, rock and roll. Yeah, I
mean it's honestly, it's an organizational award for me. I mean it's the
GM, you know, the ownership, the assistant coaches, I mean,
players like you know, you're a piece of the puzzle. It's just not
you know, I think it's an organizational type of trophy. You know,
I got a huge support group. It helps me. So yeah, yeah,
that's that's the way I look at it. And honestly, you know,
I'm just thinking about the game tonight, to be honest you he'll enjoy
it later on, maybe after he's done, as I had guess. And
that's Rick Talckett in a nutshell. Hey, I don't care about this award.
It's about the crest on the front of the jersey. It's about the
team. He doesn't want to talk about it. He was asked about it,
which is fair, but he didn't want to talk about it. Yeah,
I just love to see somebody win an award and just take all the
credits, just because it would be better for our show, for all media.
Really, that's what it's all about, isn't it. You know what,
I deserve this award. I really didn't have a lot of help.
It was all me. Yeah, because all the way Ryan feels about working
with us, Yeah, it's all me. It's all me. Check had
nothing to do with Don and Rick do nothing. I just would like to
see that once there's no Iron Team. It's funny. Can I sneak this
in about Andrew Burnett because he's nominated? He looked at it a bit differently
when he spoke to them. He took all the credit himself. No,
he said, it's a tremendous honor. The last time it didn't go so
well. I think I lost my job a little while later, So I
don't know how to take it anymore Florida. But it's interesting there's all this
talk about Rick Bonez right in his future in Winnipeg, and so you know,
it's not always the best thing. And when and you said hacks doll
Dave Hashtell last year, right, Yeah, now he's got that. You
wouldn't be the first guy like that. It was interesting with Andrew Burnett.
He took over from Joel Quinville and really difficult situation, did a pretty good
job with Florida. He gets let go and at that point, I think
myself and a lot of people just thought, well, he's inexperienced and maybe
that was that was the reason why. And he had a pretty good team
and Joel kind of set him up. But then he goes to Nashville and
has all this success, so obviously he knows what he's doing. But streakier
than like to me. To Rick's point, talk at one to eighty two,
more consistent results than Nashville or Winnipeg. There they were streaking. I
mean Nashville, it's every since you too. Everybody keeps you bringing it up,
the you two thing. It wasn't all year with Nashville. Okay,
So I'll bring something else and we're gonna talk more about Game six. By
the way, we'll have a more clips courtesy of Ryan from Nashville and tune
into tomorrow show. Well, I'm looking at Vegas odds for all the awards,
and Rick Talckett leads the way when it comes to the Adams Award,
Quinn Hughes. When it comes to the Norris not so much. That's your
DEMPCO. When it comes to the Vesna, that's going to be Connor Hallibook
when he got and then Lo and Behold. I look at a couple of
you know these places, you know whatever? You know? Casino Connie with
three ends? Does it schieve a casino for yeah, with the beach pies?
Okay, out of nowhere, I thought you're getting Connie. Maybe your
tongue with the con spike. Connie. Hey, this has been our worst
segment ever and that's something. Okay, where was I I don't know?
Lo and Behold the best odds for the Jim Gregory Award General Manager of the
Year. You make fun of me about this. Help you guys do Patrick
Alvin to the Canucks, right. I still don't get why they don't,
not like why it's not part of this thing, like they're not because the
awards announced for like the next ten days or whatever, and it's not.
But when I brought that up, you guys are looking at me like I
had two heads, because it's because you brought it up yourself. Because everybody
believes it's arguing with you were in a way because everybody believes rut Theford and
right and wrong. I brought that up exactly, so I think that's why
a lot of people. Yeah, but that a lot of people might not
be aware of that. Who are doing the voting? You think they would
be. I think they are. But look at all the moves that Connects
have made, that's the you have to think he was in on at least
half of them. Well you said you disagreed with Rick and I, but
we say Connocks are the best story in the NHL. Well, you have
to give no matter what happens here in this postseason, this regular season,
the best story. Yes, you said at twenty six points they got in
the playoffs to you know, winning their division. Come on, we just
had a massive argument to bring about Jack Edwards, who did his last broadcast
for that's justin Bruins. The last thing being a homer. Well, you
guys are talking, it's kind of homer ish. I think the best news
in the NHL this year, and the Canucks would be second. Get the
hell out of Phoenix. They finally did it. Maybe it's a recency bias.
Yeah, it's hard being right all the time, all right? Is
it just me? DTMZ Coming up in the next hour, Scottie Upshaw is
going to join us just after eleven o'clock. He's been doing what's the name
of the podcast, Dropping the Gloves podcast, Missing Curfew, Missing Curfew?
You killed that? There's so far man, Missing Missing Curfew and Dropping the
Gloves and Dropping the Gloves both feel that Patrick Elvigan will win the Jim Gregory
Award. By the way, can I get this in trade? The golf
on the Fairy Worker Voting for the Jim Gregory happens after the second round of
the playoffs. That's true, So that's why put that in your pipe and
spoke again. That's so weird to me. Every other award regular season,
this one? Why is this one? I guess it's it's an indication of
the moves you might have made of the deadline. Okay, wicking out?
I mean height smoke, Big Ride coming up, well, unless he leaves
the studio. Are you paying attention to here? You're paying attention, you
bet you? Big Ride the Twitter guy coming up later this segment and up
next and also appearing on Saturday. Apparently Thomas Drants from the Athletic. He's
down in Nashville. He's going to join us next. It's going to be
a long day. It already is Donny and Dolly the team. I checked
Dottie and Dolly. The team is supported by Abelauctions dot ca A closing your
business where you can help. It is Friday, and all of our guests
today, including Thomas Drants from the Athletics, standing by in Nashville, brought
to you by our friends Al Chris Manson and co. At the Whistler Golf
Club Opening day, May tenth. Oh. Yes, Connuction Predators Tonight Game
six, Archer Sea LOFs will start in goal, not surprisingly for the Canucks.
Joining us now again from Tennessee the volunteer State Thomas Grants, who,
by the way, will be joining us tomorrow as well. According to me
moments ago, Thomas, how are you sir? Well, I have to
prey up my schedule tomorrow. I land around three pm and tell my wife's
birthday party. But I can fit you guys in a in a narrow window.
I'm sure perfect. That's good. I had a brain fart moments ago.
Okay, oh absolutely, And people who watch this show know that not
when you're on only when we're on Thomas. Do you understand why the Conducts
are putting so much faith in Archer Sea LOFs Well, I mean he's performed
to a level that you certainly do understand it. I mean he has been
good in his two starts, although I don't know that he's hit the level
that Desmith did in Game three, where where I thought he kind of thieved
a pretty key win for this team in that game. You know, it's
interesting, it's interesting for sure. Of course Sea Loves as the starter,
not officially confirmed by Rick Talckett, but they weren't hiding it like at Game
five, they were really trying to do the hide the tell of who's starting.
But I stuck behind while the Canucks did player availabilities to watch the goaltenders
because I wanted to know. To me, that's kind of the story of
the day, you know, not whatever a player quote, we get out
of the room. So I stuck around and watched it. And there's really
no doubt in my mind Sea Loves was going through preparation to start. All
indications are that, and I don't think the Canucks are really hiding it.
They're just not officially confirming it, and I guess that makes sense. You
know, there's enough stylistic differences between de Smith and Sea Loves that maybe there's
some value there, although we're way past the point where league should require teams
to disclose their starter like officially you know from the team's pr staff, the
way they would confirm a starting lineup in the NBA an hour before tip,
or you know the way the NFL does injury reports. I mean, it
is a bit of a ludicrous pantomime and I don't think one that talk it
would do if it were in an organizational decision that hey, there might be
some small edge here in keeping the Predators somewhat in the dark until the warm
up s game Thomas. Every time you hear Rick talk about the two goaltenders
he has available right now, when he mentions Archer Seilovs, he always mentions
the word calm or cool and or cool. How much cooler and calmer is
Archer Seelaws versus Casey? To Smith, in your opinion, you know,
it's an interesting one. I think the moment isn't too big for him.
I do think to Smith because of the size, because of what the lack
of size caused him to do in Net. I think he can be a
little bit more vulnerable to like rebounds, permitting rebounds than a larger, more
athletic, younger goaltender like Sea Lobs. I suspect that that's what Takit is
referring to with the word calm when he when he uses the word cool,
I assume he's talking about Sea Lobs's Hugo Boss dress shirt the But the calmness,
my guess would be that he's talking about the rebound control and perhaps the
sense that you know, TALKI gets. I mean, the other thing that
talking always comments on when he talks about Sea loves his size, right,
he looks big in Net, and so I wonder I wonder too if the
calmness that Talket's referring to might be projected somewhat that talk It feels somewhat more
calm with Sea Lobs in Net. You know, Dismiss played well, we
all know that. And yet in the second half of the season, we
did see him start somewhat less frequently than we did at the start of the
year, right, I mean through about January, you know, January February,
like Demko was on pace for fifty five ish starts, and then the
club started to use Demco more heavily, and the Smith starts kind of they
didn't evaporate, but they became fewer and further between. And then, of
course, once he had the ball and had an opportunity to run with it.
I do think there was a moment in time where stee Lovs was kind
of option one for Vancouver and then we're seeing that play out again in the
playoffs. So you know, they have three good goaltenders. You need three
good goaltenders. I do think this just reflects the fact that in the coaching
staff's estimation, the margin between Sea Lobs and the Smith in terms of their
ability to give this club a level of goaltending that permits them to win,
you know, is non existent. Thomas twelve goals in five games, eighteen
shots per game. Are you surprised he's not mixing things up to try and
create more offense? A little bit? A little bit, I mean,
there aren't a lot of buttons to push, Rick, That's my honest opinion.
You know, I they send Pod Colson down to the American League.
I mean, I guess you could flip flop Pod Pleson in for Phil d
Jusseppi. But what does that really do? Right, It's it's not like
the Canucks have a bunch of you know, high end younger forwards who are
just you know, on the fringes of the roster because of experience. You
know, you need offense. Neils a Mon's not the answer, right,
Like we all know that. And then in terms of mixing the lines up,
you know, if you if you don't want to separate Joshua and Garland,
and this team's shown us that they clearly do not, you know,
I mean, what other options do you have to sort of like give Peterson
more help or find a player who can convert on a higher percentage of their
chances with Besser and Miller, you know that there's just not a lot of
options with the way that this roster is constructed. You know, this team,
this team hasn't generated enough volume in terms of shots, shot attempts,
scoring chances all season. Right, they've really dined out on being hyper efficient.
They've they've really dined out on converting perimeter shots into interior shots off of
rebounds and deflections and and sort of second stick finishing and Honestly, some of
that's worked for them in this series, Like they have shot a high percentage
right, they have made Sorrows look silly on occasion, so a lot of
their game still has translated. But when you look at the overall shot totals,
when you look at sort of the process behind this team's offensive generation,
you know they don't profile like a contender from an offensive standpoint, just just
from a from the standpoint of what they can generate. They obviously profile like
a contender in terms of just how glitzy there their top of the roster star
talent is, but that that's kind of different from the way the team goes
about creating offense, and you can kind of see that, you know,
as you watch other series, So you know this team does need to generate
more. They're gonna need to test Sorrows more frequently than they have in most
of the games this series. Tonight, I think, especially given that Sorrows
is now coming off of his best game and you know, you definitely don't
want the Predator's starter to feel like he has traction, right, you know,
you don't want to go into the second half of Game six tonight and
have Sorrow's feeling really good about his game. You definitely don't want to go
into Game seven on Sunday and having Sorrow's feeling really good about his game.
So, you know, the club does need to make life harder on the
Predator's goaltender. They need to generate more. And yet, you know,
I think a lot of what has worked for them all season has also worked
for them this series. It's just that margins get tighter when you're facing the
same opponent seven times or six a maximum seven times over a two week span,
and they have the ability to really, like hone in on how to
prevent you from getting chances Thomas Nashville won sixty percent of the face offs in
the last game. If this happens again tonight, the Canucks are going to
spend a good chunk of the game chasing the game, I mean the faceoff
circle. They got to get a whole lot better tonight. Yeah, and
this team's been good on draws all season. You know, I don't know
that I'd expect a sixty forty edge for the Predators again. At the end
of the day, the faceoffs matter, and they especially matter in leverage.
Right that the offensive zone draw or the key offensive or defensive zone draws late
in the game, end of the period started the power play. I mean,
there are individual draws that matter a ton, but there's also a lot
of them where, you know, sixty percent at the end of the day,
it's one puck battle, like it's it's one puck battle, right,
and there's going to be ten more within a minute, and the results of
those matter just as much. So I'm not dwelling on the face offs personally.
It's more important to me that the Canucks win the key draws than it
is that they win sixty percent or fifty percent or hold their own. From
a percentage standpoint, you know, partly why some of the best face off
men in this league, like don't even use their best moves in the neutral
zone. They save them for when it really matters. It's really about the
individual draws, the individual moments. Those are the ones that are key.
You know, the overall percentage I don't think is going to dictate the outcome
tonight and very quick. Thomas Bonus Burnette Talkeett, who wins the Adams Award.
It's gonna be talk, come on, I mean, and it should
be. This was an incredible coaching job. I think Talcket designed a narrow
path, a specific script for how this team could win games, how they
could disguise in some ways, the lack of mobility on the back end,
how they could create offense without taking chances that would leave them vulnerable off the
rush. I mean, when you talk about Canucks hockey, when you talk
about this team's identity, it's so well defined, Like you know how they're
gonna come out, you know how they're gonna for check. You know how
they're going to use that neutral zone wedge to try and counter, you know
how they play with the lead. This is one of the most impressive year
over year, like single season defensive turnarounds we've ever seen. He's gotten this
team organized and we know exactly what this team wants to do. It's a
credit to him, and I appreciated his quote sort of sharing the shine with
his players, his coaching staff, the general manager, even ownership. You
know. I thought that was a classy way to handle it, especially on
the day of a crucial game for him and his team. Thomas Dude,
the person who designed Arch's shirt, also designed the artwork in Behind You.
It looks eerily similar. Yeah, yeah, you're not wrong. Oh my
gosh, Wow, look at that. That is exact replication straight from Yeah,
they got it straight from Dan Flashes. A perfect print for your dression.
A perfect way to end this interview. Thank you, Thomas, and
we'll talk to you next week, not tomorrow. You're off the hook.
I got to say that that moment, by the way, where my windows
started compressing, that was that was actually quite terrifying. I felt like I
needed to like push back. You you do that again, Ryan, You
worked your way through it, Thomas. You're a pro. No awesome,
buddy, Thomas drants in Nashville, Tennessee. Yesterday at practice, the Canucks
two for thirteen on the power play. Oh for two, last time out.
They need to work on the powerplay. That's exactly what they did yesterday.
As we go to break and get ready to introduce the poll question,
the first I can't even remember now we're going to introduce the poll question next.
And as we go to break, here's Rick Talckett talking about yesterday's practice
and what they worked on regarding the power play. Well, we had to
do some entries. Obviously, the entries were as Mills, he said awful,
And it really just takes one or two broken plays or players to know.
I'm not picking on anybody to really put a wrench in it. I
think so, I think for us as the execution, but after that,
I mean, actually I really pedied it. He was very decisive with a
puckey, scored a copy. I know it's practice. He scored a couple.
He made a couple of good plays because he was decisive. So that's
a good sign for us. Able Auctions specializes in helping British Columbia based business

Canucks Predators Game six tonight, Donnie and Delly playoff post game or right
after Watlin Dog poll question. Arthur Schilocks will start tonight. We believe it's
not official, but all indications point to that. A visit one of Victoria's
favorite pubs where you can enjoy twenty taps at twenty screens. You're home for
the connection, UFC. Come sit and stay at the Dog today, Rick
Mooddeling Dog Pop Paul question, is Rick talking making the right call? Starting?
She loves over to Smith tonight for game six? Whopping eighty eight percent
say yes, twelve percent say no. Eleven hundred votes already even again.
Rick Talckett noncommittal after the morning skate, but again all indication she lost.
Was the first goaltender to leave the morning skate today and that's usually an indication
that he's going to start. That's not the only goaltending news when it comes
to the Connucks. We'll get to that in a second. But first,
some business, Ellis Kitchen and Bath in Penticton, has gone bankrupt and able
Auctions has been instructed to sell it all late Model Woods Shop equipment. Watch
it Late model Wood Shop equipment including an Omnitech CNC roder, a Holtz her
Sprint edge bander, a Ganno Matt CNC parametric drill and clapping machine, high
end compressors, and Niedermann Central dust collection system. Delivery trucks trucks, and
a whole lot more and again we have a theory as to why this business
went out of business. It's called Ellis Kitchen and Bath. Looks like they
just do capitetry. Yeah, so I'm thinking fawcets and sinks. I'm thinking
tubbs, sinks, Fawcetts, everything pipes, bidets pipes. For information on
this. For information on this cabinet shop bankruptcy auction or to get your cabinet

E Auctions dot c A. Thatcher dempco Rick on the ice. Yeah,
so thatf Who's going to Den? Murphy's got the video here it is.
We're going to credit Den doing a great job in Nashville. DEMPK go on
the ice yesterday, DEMPK go on the ice today. Rick talkin said he
is skating and generally progressing, but not participating in invasive drills, which means
it's very early in the stages. I was told still a long way to
go for demp goo uh, but this is a positive sign for him to
be on the ice. I'm not sure this is the first time he's been
on the ice. I think there's the he was on the ice in Vancouver,
but not with the team. Yeah, and no one else got video
this they got video. He's in Nashville. This is good. It's a
positive sign. You're starting goaltender is on the ice. Don round two.
If they get past this round, we're not We're not counting our chickens are
hatching them or whatever. Yet. Well, the Bruins aren't counting their That's
it. And the Caducks fans could take a big time lesson for what the
Bruins are going through. They could be the first team in history two years
in a row to be a have a three to one series lead and blow
it. Do so. Anyways, Dempko, it's a good sign he's on
the ice. Okay, we refer to this in the Thomas Drants interview,
and I want to run these clips. We've got them back to back to
back. But we talked about this yesterday about J T. Miller try kind
of loosen up the boys. Yea, I guess Archer Shee LOFs came in
with this. Thomas transfferred to it as a hugo boss while but crazy questionable
choice. I would say so, JT. Miller I guess obviously she lots
had gone on the ice, grabs the shirt, puts it on, takes
a few laps, and wears it at the start of practice and eventually eventually
teaches having some having some fun and annoying the temperature of the team, annoying,
the pressure that is involved, and the conducts don't have a ton of
NHL playoff experience. The Nashville's got quite a bit more. This is a
guy who's been in the Eastern Conference Final with the Rangers. This is a
guy that knows what it takes to go far. And Lucy Goosey get the
boys loosened up. This is a brilliant move by JT. Miller, And
I got to say, I understand why they were picking apart the shirt,
just just looking at it. Anyway, after that practice was over yesterday,
here are some of the boys talking about j T. Miller wearing that shirt.
Is it fair for she loves to be mocked like that with a shirt?
Oh? Yeah, there was. I didn't do it. I don't
know, It's not a question for me. What do you think of the
shirt? Well, I mean, he's gonna know better. He's not a
nightclub and the regal lay, Well, that's good loose the guys. I
think it was already I think that's already's. Is that his a golf shirt
or something? What is that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I look
good on him, you know, something like different than every single day with
the guys giving you two for the shirt? Is that why JT decided to
tread it around like that? I mean they didn't say too much, but
like I guess they liked it so much they wanted to bring it on their
eyes. There were no words for that shirt. So what's gonna happen?
If the Canucks advance and she LOFs is still in goal sales of that shirt.
If somebody's gonna jump on this, much like Butts Row back in the
day with the white towels, that thing is gonna take off. Maybe maybe
fans will start waving replicas of that shirt versus the white towel, or you'll
have people showing up at Rogers Arena wearing replicas of that shirt that you watch.
It will happen, and it shit, it's all It's a whole lot
of fun, don't you like uh talk. It's Lucy Goosey laughing with the
media, you know, Miller's doing that, Donnie. Uh. They understand
the pressure that's coming with Game six and a possible Game seven. They're trying
to you know, Lucy goosey it up. I like it, okay,
before we go to break and again Canucks Predators tonight Game six, Donny a
delay playoff post game afterwards. A couple of things here. First of all,
congratulations to our friend far Hand, Logy joins us every Tuesday, normally
from T s N and who you wanted to send this out to him.
Congratulations he's being inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame. And keep in
mind with Farhand that it's not just about being an outstanding broadcaster and obviously caring
so much about the CFL and the NFL all levels of football. Also longtime
coach of the New sal he knows what he's he knows what he's talking about
when it comes to the game of football. But also mention another friend of
ours, I don't know how well you were wrong. I remember Steve im
but Steve Daniels also getting into the gzz Vancouver guy well, and in this
case Steve worked with the Grizzlies for a long, long time basketball statistician,
worked with numbers all his life, eventually gone on to the CFL. Really
important, really important member of the CFL fraternity when it comes to statistics,
he just does. He does a great job. So congratulations to Steve and
Farhand. Also thoughts pray we talked to him yesterday. We didn't know about
this, but to BC Allons co GM. Neil McAvoy, a friend of
ours for years and years and years, worked his way up through the Lions
organization much like Bobby Ackles did. I can't imagine how proud his father,
Clay was of Neil. Clay passed away earlier this week. So thoughts and
prayers to the entire McAvoy family. A break, big ride the Twitter Guy
next, just I had a big ride the Twitter Guy, brought to you
by the Waddling Dog. The Lady's Okay. Taryn Langley Inbox, Lyle in
Centerville, Nova Scotia. I'm looking forward to your Saturday show. Hope it
becomes a regular event. I slipped up and said Thomas Drans was going to

Some ideas, a bad idea, Yeah, so action, I'm not sure.
Big Ride the Twitter Guy, Big Ride, the Twitter Guy. Brought

Let's head to Florida. First of all, we got a photo earlier today
from Ezra vacation in Orlando, Florida for a couple of weeks. He's at
Universal Studios. Decide to wear one of my two Donny Doll these shirts I
brought on the trip. Keep up the great work, guys. Thank you
Ezra for bringing that black shirt too. So it might be a little warm
for you, but hopefully your trip is good. I hope you enjoy your
Thank you Ezra. You have a good time on your trip. Thank you,
Big e. Yeah. Absolutely, Okay, we've talked about tomorrow in
this city gonna be very busy and a reminder to everyone. White Caps fiftieth
anniversary match Tomorrow night, seven thirty kickoff. They take on Austin FC.
They've already sold thirty set thirty thousand tickets. That number is gonna go up,
so arrive early. Street party outside BC Place begins at three o'clock.
They're gonna have a special ceremony before they match around seven fifteen to honor one
hundred plus alumni yeah of the of the white Caps. So it's gonna be
a great night. But a reminder of Pearl Jams also in town at Rodgers
Arena, so it's gonna be very busy downtown. So if you're going to
either of these things, leave early. And it's also the BEMO Marathon on
Sunday, so there's extra people in town as well, So it's gonna be
very being a sports fan. You're going to the white Caps Skish, Yeah,
I'm not. I'm going to Pearl Jam all night. I'm very much
looking forward to and I'm going on Monday as well. But unreal, yeah,
unrel Why do people do that? But oh here's the thing though,
Pearl Jam one of the artists that I know. They're gonna play two different
set lists both nights. I'm gonna see different sets in that. So it's
not like these the same show. No, it's not two times in three
days, same songs. They don't got six h songs, right, they
have a lot of songs. Good luck to the white Caps tomorrow night as
they take on Austin FC. Okay, let's talk a little NBA, and
let's talk about a guy that I called a clown last night on Twitter.
Oh yeah, Patrick Beverly of the Milwaukee Bucks slipped up twice. Here's the
first instance. He throws a ball he's highlighted here on the right, trying
to hit a fan. He instead hits a young girl who laughs it off,
fan throws it back. He decides to throw it back at the fan
for a second time. Of course, then his other players get involved security
as well. So first of all, I feel awful for that young girl
who's doing nothing but just you know, trying to watch the game. Then
he decides to do it a second time. There's the guy in the muscle
shirt or muscle the jersey with no shirt underneath, so I can guarantee he
was trying to be a tough guy. Shams he is the report here that
apparently in all a stem from this one fan in Indie last night escalated,
escalated things. The bucks were breaking, huddle and the fan you have can
coon can coon on three? Yeah, and that pissed off Pat Bev because
okay, that is not tid for tat. No, you're gonna hurt something
exact. You can't do that. That's bad. So that was no.
Yeah, that's a good line. It's very good. It's very I don't
care what your situation is, it is that's funny. Yeah. Yeah,
the Pacers were up. We knew what was gonna happen if this game six
the Pacers end up winning the advance. So Pat Bev decides to double down
on that stupidity and comes up with this in the locker room post game.
I'm sorry, you subscribe to so you can't interview me in no disrespect.
Subscribe. Okay, cool, that's cool again. There were a couple of
times, within a bucket or two in previous games they all been it will
kind of get over that humber. Maybe was it anything they did in particular,
or was it just one of those where the bucket didn't go down.
There wasn't the stop they made one what kind of prevented that you all from
me able to get over kind of like you haven't the best the mood that
might please or just get out the circle please for me, please, ma'am.
If you're not subscribed to my pod, I appreciate it that thank you.
Oh man, what are we so? The woman he's talking to is
Melinda Adams. She's a well respected producer with ESPN. The list of people
that have come out talking about her work is very lengthy. She tweeted this
morning. I want to thank everyone for their kind words and support. I'm
humbled. Patrick Beverley just called me and apologize. I appreciate it and accepted.
The Bucks also reached out to apologize as well. Have been news for
forty years and kindness and grace always wins. I wrote it. Yeah,
so she takes the classy, classy root in this whole thing. First of
all, I'd never even heard about Patrick Beverley having a podcast before this clip
last night, And that's not the way the media works. Exactly, subscribe
to somebody's podcast in order to interview them. That was the moment. I've
never heard of it. I've never heard of that. I've been in the
I know I'm old and I'm out of touch and all of that. I've
never heard of that. It's like, you need permission to talk to me.
But nothing. Nobody was talking to you about your podcast. They were
talking about the game that you participated in. That all of those people that
are in the locker room are paid to cover. They're not covering your podcast.
Not only that, but doing an interview. And no matter you know
who's whatever reporters in front of you, all of them are helping you out.
They're helping your podcast out. Jactly, first he throws balls at fans
and now he's he's ripping reporters. I mean, is this the new wave
athlete? Or this is this what the college is? University? Donnie.
There's bad athletes everywhere, But I just these guys all went to college,
they went to university. How about being humble and how about being appreciative of
the fact it's a privilege to play in the NBA, it's a privilege to
play in the National Hockey League, in the NFL and Major League Baseball.
This stuff is just horrendous. Yeah, he's all, well, it sounds
like he's got problems with anger, and it sounds also, like you know,
on second thought, he knows he's screwed up. He's bounced around the
NBA, He's had other instances that's not not like this. No, it's
not. It's not at all Rick, and neither is I'm sorry. No
matter what a fan says to you, outside of something you know, racial
or something very derogatory, there's no excuse for that. She didn't say anything.
The worst part of it is that he could have hurt somebody. Yes,
like that situation, the situation with the locker, that's going to happen.
It's emotional. Here's the other thing. It's you know, it's great
for our show and it's not necessarily bad for the media when something like that
happens. But when it gets physical, yes, when there's a problem,
yes, yes, And I mean look at any kind of encounter with an
NBA player in fans. The first thing that's all always brought up every single
time, even though this is nothing like that is the malice of the palace,
and the NBA is trying to run away from that as much as possible
because you don't want fans and players getting mingled. That's bad, that's very
bad, And so I think that Pat beav Is. He's a free agent.
By the way, he was on a one year deal with the Bucks,
so he's or with the I think he's with the seventy six ers actually,
but he got traded to the Box anyway. Bottom line is he's gonna
be a UFA. He's thirty five years old. Might be the end of
the road for him anyway. I think the NBA is gonna levy a pretty
heavy suspension. So even if he does get picked up, I think he's
gonna be because I mean, again, you're right, Donny. The reporter
thing, as bad as it was, it was a bad look whatever,
you know, like it just has been told to f off or whatever the
case may be. And fine, Oftentimes a clip like that, like we
saw it just now, it's gonna make its way to the airwaves. It's
edgy and it's different. But again, you can't get physical, no,
like, there's no real consequences to that. You throwing a ball and hitting
a young fan first of all, and then doing it a second time,
well much like them, Allison, Well not much like because I don't know
all the details. But you know our test had the wrong person, Yes
you know, yes, you know, yes it was. I don't know,
we don't know who who yelled at was the oldest jacklone there. I'm
not sure exactly exactly. So it was just just despicable last night. And
so we'll see what happens. Like I said, the NBA likely gonna throw
down a pretty big suspension if Patrick Beverley's in the league next year. The
NBA is so different from hockey, especially hockey, but well everything football,
baseball. There's just no barriers, no literally so different there. Yeah,
okay, coming up next, Big eleven o'clock hour is ahead, Scottie Upshaw.

in Scotty Upshaw to talk some more hockey, Scotti, Thanks for doing this,
sir. How are you? How are you enjoying the world of broadcasting
your podcast as well? That's a little easier on the body than it was
it was playing, especially this time of year, but not not as as
much excitement, you know, unless we get caught saying something we shouldn't.
But you know, it's great. Obie and I have a great time doing
Missing Kirkfew. Uh you know, we get to blend with our with our
listeners who enjoy our Tuesday you know, our Tuesday Friday broadcast. So it's
fun to be on this side of the thing. And we love the fact
that we had Channe on the show and both the BC connections, so we
we love that. Hey, your old Nashville team. What makes them so
hard to play against, Scottie? The connection you're having trouble with them?
Yeah, it seems like they haven't changed much since you know, the early
two thousands when Trotzy implemented uh, you know, let's let's sit back,
let's play tight checking, let's uh you know, let's make it hard on
the other team. And you know, I give credit to just you know,
guys like Ryan O'Reilly coming in there and helping out their leadership group.
You know, a guy like Roman Yosi who basically as a defenseman, it
looks like he plays, you know, some sort of rover position in hockey.
He's you know, he scored a big goal in the last game to
push it to Game six, and you just got to give them credit,
right, They're a hard team to play against. They found a way to
stay in this series. And you know, now they're back home for a
Piobol Game six with a chance to to bring this series back to Vancouver for
Game seven. Uh and Scott of this was a big topic on our show,
as you would imagine here in Vancouver. But tell us why, And
I was on your Twitter account. You're of the opinion the connect should have
challenged the Roman Yosi speaking of Roman Yosi should have challenged the Roman Yosi goal
the other day. Yeah, there's just been a lot of controversy right over
this. You know, the goaltending and you know the conversation that John Cooper
had when Tampa Bay happened to lose. You know in five to Florida,
I apologize for this dog barking in the background. No, I thought I
thought it was Shane. Yeah, it's usually that he's not as he's not
as annoying as as this little one. But yeah, well listen, No,
you know, I thought Roman Yosi was you know, he he drove
the net. He went in the net hard, like like anyone should.
And I thought the forward coming up, you know, I forget who it
was right now, But the puck was laying in, you know, goalies
lying on top of the puck and and they come in. You know,
whether the puck's covered or not, you got to go for the puck.
You don't hit the puck and you hit the goalie. You know, there's
there's something wrong with that. That's that's to me, interference. It's a
really tricky spot. I think when you're tied late in the game, I
think it's worth going for the challenge. You know, you're on you're already
on the penalty. You know you're I think you're already on the penalty kill.
And for me, it's, uh, you know, it could be
a really deciding factor in this series. It wasn't that game and you know,
let's just hope it doesn't come back to bite. The Cannucks need your
dog and the fore check you're not letting up. Yeah, I take care
of him. If you want to give me one second here, go ahead,
go go for Hey, this is the first on Donny and Donny.
I guess making sure that the dog doesn't hinder the interview we've had. You've
gone through this, you know I've never done it. You've done podcasts or
the dog bark in the background. Come on, I've never done a podcast
where all we can see is a chair and a picture of a honeybird.
There we go. Okay, Oh my god. I don't know what kind
of lady dog was out front there, but yeahogi problem. We've seen it
all the world of podcasting from your house. We usually got it in the
studio, but I to bring my dog to work anymore. We both have
dogs. Don't worry about it. We both have dogs. Don't worry about
it. Scotti. Yet, I was gonna ask you about you see Mitch
Marner getting the heat in Toronto, right, and you see Peterson getting the
heat in Vancouver. Uh. And then you saw the Boston Bruins coach last
night, saying pastor next, gotta be better. Boy. These top players,
when they don't perform in the playoffs and they're expected to scotty, they're
getting a lot of heat. Yeah, boys, listen. I know you
guys are a Vancouver podcast, right, and you know we're really hard on
our star players in Canada. It's just the way it is. It's the
way it's always been. Go back to Matt sundeen days, yep, Marcus
naslind days right for two. You know, I look at Petterson and I
had a chance to text, you know, I shot Rick Talkeett and Mike
yoa text this morning and just said good luck boys, get it done.
Me and Obi hope to see you guys for round two up in Vancouver.
And I just a little back and forth with Josie, who takes care of
the forwards. You know, I said, Petterson, if he only just
shot more, I think he's got such a great shot. He's trying to
find the back door. He's trying to find those lanes back door from the
half wall. I go, if he just shot the puck a couple of
times early, you know in the game, maybe you know, maybe he
breaks an ankle. You know, a guy goes down to block the shot,
that's when things will start to open up for him. But if you
go back to you know, I think whoever scores three goals tonight in this
Vancouver game will win the game. Whoever's power play clicks and scores a goal
might win the game. And Peterson's everything goes through him and hughes and you
know, just for me, it's got to be a shot first mentality.
When things don't go well, you got to put guys in front of the
net and you got to just you know, playoff hockey. If you look
at the way the goals are scored, it's from the point down to the
goalie, rebound, get in front of him, score a goal, big
goal, garbage goal, call it what it is. That could be the
difference. And it starts with Petterson. So I just you know, if
you look at the Mitch Marner situation, I think it's a little different.
I think the Mitch Marner thing, people are trying to call him out for
being soft, for not wanting to engage in areas, in areas of the
rink that you I don't care if you make, you know, if you're
making a thousand dollars or you're making eleven million dollars. That should not get
Your compete level should always be high this time of year. You strive to
be an NHL player playing in the playoffs. It's there's no question about that.
But it's it comes down to compete. I think in the Pederson situation,
you know, scoring or scoring a big goal for this guy or setting
up a nice play might get him over the edge, but it just starts
by shooting the puck, getting back to what works. And you know he's
a he's an All Star. So you get to the second round, people
forget what happened in this round. You get a new, fresh fleet.
And that's what we expect the Canucks to do tonight, Scottie. It doesn't
matter who comes out of Vancouver, Nashville when they play the Owners, they
better stay out of the box. Nine for twenty in the opening round.
And actually they should have had two more power play goals. Kings player was
just coming out. It could have been eleven. What about the Owners special
teams, I mean their power plays incredible. Yeah, yeah, you said
it right there. Their special teams are special. You know, they really
are. Had a chance on Friday last week to go watch him play in
La I brought my lovely wife here and we went up and watched. You
know, Connor and Leon basically play some of the best hockey I've seen two
guys ever, you know, put skates on and go play. They they
moved the puck so well. Zach Hyman is. You know what a contribution
he's been able to be for their power play and for their organization. He's
you know, everything's everything's happening for this guy, and he deserves it.
Well, it's it's a reason why, you know, scoring goals in this
league doesn't always have to be pretty. You know, even when Connor McDavid's
out there, stand in front of the net. Pucks go off your butt,
puck, pucks go off your leg, your stick. They all count.
But you got to You're right, you got to stay off no matter
what. You got to stay out of the penalty box against these guys.
They're riding, you know, some confident hockey right now. The fans in
Edmonton, we all see the building. You know, I think Canada is
striving for a championship right now, whether it's Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto.
I mean I think every Canadians cheering for Canadian teams, and you know it's
gonna be a great series, no matter if it's Nashville or if it's no
matter if it's Nashville or Edmonton, these guys or Nashville or Vancouver. The
next round, whoever plays Edmonton is they got their hands full. I'm looking
at this as as Edmonton's got the best chance to you know, to make
it, you know, into the Stanley Cup Final, as they've ever had.
And I think when Connor and Leon smell that it's dangerous. Okay,
we're a bit over time. I'm your Scotty, but I want to throw
in one more question because you mentioned Mike Yo and he's a holdover from when
Bruce Boudreau was here in Vancouver. You see Rick Cockett on the bench talking
to him all the time. How much do you think and you he was
your coach, if I'm not mistaken in Saint Louis, how much do you
think he has to do with the Caduck success. I think he you know,
he's a big contributor to what, you know what success they've had this
year. And I think the guys, I think the guys can relate to
a guy like Mike Yo. Like Mike Yo played hockey, he played tough
hockey. You know, he's very direct with his team, with his team,
and you know, you look at Rick Tockic getting that Jack Adams,
you know that that award today, to be not to be nominated for the
award today, that that says a lot about not just what Talk has been
able to do, but what his coaching staff and his support staff have done.
And you're right, you guys, you do see you know, you
do see Josie on his you know, on his zer piece a lot,
and then Talk always going to him. He's a guy that you know,
you can relate all different situations to him. Penalty kill, power play,
what type of for check, you know, how do we switch things up?
What kind of personnel you put out there? You know, Talks is
a great leader, and he's he's the guy you want to listen to.
But Josie is a guy he's ex'es and o's you know, he was great
for us in Saint Louis. And you know that coaching staff. They've got
a great coaching staff there right now with Footter and you know, they got
just good guys there. So that's uh, that's a big you know,
a big tip the cap to those boys. What's your dog's name? Scottie
Ruby driving me nuts? Say hi to Ruby for us and thanks thanks for
that above and beyond. Thanks so much, Scottie. Thank you appreciate it
any anytime, Fellaws. Yeah you bet, Scotty. I'mchalla joining us from
the Mission Curfew podcast. And he talked about Mike Yo. I just I
forgot that he had played for a Mike. You always see Rick talk Talk
talking to Mike Yo. And he's right, he did play hockey. If
you have a second, check out Mike yo hockey dB page all sorts of
penalty mentes in the minors. Like you said, he played tough hockey.
We're gonna update the poll question next. Donnie Delling the team on't Jack,
Dolly and Dolly. The team is supported by Abelauctions dot ca A Closing your
Business where you can help there Hoff Alex Edler playing the points Edler for Michael
Samuel Side Who's out this game? Hendrick Sadeen Kessler and Fun who's put Daniel
scores? Kessler sit on another one and Daniel Sadeine has his first goal of
this series two nothing Vancouver. That was the last time. That was May
ninth, twenty eleven. That was the last time Canucks and Predators played a
game six in Nashville, Canucks winning by a score of two to one in
that series at the Canucks one in six. Daniel Sadein and Mason Raymond are
the goal scorer for the Conducs in that game. I remember that. Not
surprisingly, Ryan Kessler with assists on both goals. He had eleven points in
six games for the Canucks over the Predators in six and much like this year,
extremely close. People forget all well promty six games. Five of them
were one goal games. The other game was a two goal game that featured
an empty net goal. Very very close, very very similar to what we're
seeing now, and of course, Knnuck fans hoping that like twenty eleven,
this series ends in six games. Strange to see the Predators in those navy
blue uniforms. Yes, that is true, and the last three games in
this series done one goal games. Just like you mentioned, it's been tight.
Let's update the waddling dog pull question. Visit one of Victoria's favorite pubs
where you can enjoy twenty taps and twenty screens. You're home for the Canucks
in UFC. Come sit and stay at the dog today. Nothing official,
but all signs point to Archer she loves getting to start again for the Canucks
tonight in Nashville, Tennessee. All right, get her up our waddling Dog.
Pub poll question, is Rick talking making the right call sea Loves over
to Smith tonight? He is going to start Sea Looves said tonight? Eighty
eight percent say that Yes, he's making the right call. Twelve percent say
no, almost thirteen hundred votes already. Also, we should mention that Thatcher
Dempko was on the ice today. He was on the ice today and on
the ice yesterday. Still told he's got a long ways to go, but
positive, very positive, folks. He's on the ice and here he is
Dan Murphy courtesy the video, and there is Dempko work it out, which
is a great sign. But I think there's a lot of work to do
before he gets back playing a game. And you're concerned that not starting Casey
the Smith could mean that Casey de Smith won't want to come back. I
never said that. Don don't breiate, don't puote words in my mouth the
way the talkingt Raves about Sea loves no surprise, and I and Clark drafted
him. He loves him the Oregon I is falling in love with sea Lobs
right now, right before your eyes. Done. Well, no, but
it is surprised when you look back to the start of the series. Nobody,
when nobody would have guessed this, And Donnie sea Lobs again did not
have a great year in Absbert. I have to Yeah, you and I
you were ripping them for that goalie let in from center ice. And I'm
sure I was the only one. Well you were. You were ripping on
me let in a goal in the American League from crofessional goaltender. Let's in
a goal from center ice. You don't know what there could have been a
reason for it. Don Yeah, he made a mistake. You don't think
there's some players in the dressing room that feel bad for the Smith. Oh
sure, there's a ton of him that feel bad all year he didn't.
You know, it is an interesting choice from that point of view. I
mean, he didn't do anything wrong. He actually got a minor injury that
kept him out of a game. Now he can't get back in the lineup
because the coaches and the goalie coach have fallen in love with Sea loves bottom
line and seals is fine, but it's not like he's pitching shutouts and it's
like, oh my god, look at this guy. Like but he also
is not to blame for a lot of the goals, but neither was the
Smith in my opinion, and the Smith go ahead, Donny, well sorry,
go ahead. The Smith won them the division title with the big game
in Edbmonton. Yep. Then Game three goes in, they only had twelve
shots, They win thirty one says because of him, and now the new
flavor of the month is getting in. Keep in mind though, that that
game he won in Edmonton that broke a long string, Well, he wasn't
successful for a significant period of time being up to that, but doesn't matter.
He wanted to be apparently apparently does matter. And keep in mind too,
this isn't just Rick Talkin's decision. It's Ian Clark. It's he and
Clark, and Ian Clark's the guy that drafted him, and you know,
so he's obviously got some motivation to play him. But I know he don't
want to talk about this, but they can't worry about the Smith in the
offseason. No, they can't, No, they can't. It's about today.
It's about today in the present. And hey, de Smith said it
in the paper yesterday. He said, I'm not you know, so I'm
not. He's not doing cartwheels. He's a little disappointing the competitor. Yeah,
he's disappointed he can't get back in the line up. And he said
it. And he also said something interesting. He says, I don't know
who's making the call, is it Clark or Tackett. So I thought that
was interesting as well. Okay, also of interest is and I know we
talk about this a lot, but Rick Talker had more to say during yesterday
or after yes yesterday's practice. And that's Ias Peterson's struggles. One goal in
his last eighteen games going back to the regular season. Yeah, zero goals
in the series. Do only seven shots in five games? People want to
see him shoot Shcottie Upshaw just said it, shoot more. People want to
see him move his feet more. People want to see him shoot more.
And okay, if you're going to struggle five on five, that's great.
A lot of players struggle five on five. It's hard to score five on
five in the playoffs. But when you're on the power play, you know,
take advantage of the time and space. That's where he should be dominating.
Still is Petterson on the power play, But that's where a lot of
the concern is. Okay, you mentioned moving his feet, which again I
find alarming. Rick talking yesterday with some positive news on what he feels is
Elias Petterson's biggest issue. It's the best thing I heard today. And he
came out to me. You know, we did a video today. He
said to me talk, I got to move my feet. So I told
him, I don't care what you say after that, just do that.
He knows how to play the game, he knows how to play defense,
he knows our system. That was music in my ears. He said it.
I didn't have to tell him. Are there better positions that can his
teammates can get him into or his linemates get him into, to allow him
to be more productive, to allow him to do all those things that make
him special. Sure, but I don't care if you don't move your feet,
don't care you're playing with Wayne Gretzki or Marilynmeal. You got to move
your feet. There you go, bang on, and I will say it
again. This is just alarming at the NHL level, At the NHL,
well not just the NHL level. Your expectation for any national hockey player is
that they move their feet. That's a requirement for anybody who's going to have
success in the National Hockey League. They're paying them eleven point six million dollars
a year, and you know this is something that you talk to minor hockey
players about. Yep. So that's very interesting for sure. It is.
So I want to I want to run this Jim Montgo Montgomery clip from yesterday
as well, because I'll tell you something. I wonder what Rick talk it
is saying about Elias Petterson behind closed doors, right but he has not come
out, and he's talking about moving his feet and trying to help him along.
It's been extremely positive when it comes to the head coach, not ripped
him talking about a star player that that's struggling. Versus last night, Jim
Montgomery post game, the Leafs beat Jim Montgomery's Bruins, and boy, I
thought, and I think a lot of people thought, Jim Montgomery had a
message for number eighty eight David Pasternak. Your best players need to be your
best players this time here, I think the effort is tremendous. They need
to come through with some big time plays and big time moments. I think
Marshawn has done that in the series. Boston needs a step up. Just
one goal and no assists, so one point in the last four games of
that series two and two overall for past an act. But the last four
games he's he's disappeared. And it's just, you know, coaches usually and
Jim mctgommy is a smart guy. Rick Tockett is a smart guy. They
know their players big time. So Jim Montgomery's approach is to come up publicly
and challenge one of, if not his best player. Rick Tockett's taking another
approach with with Elias Petterson. Yep. Yeah, but the player and Patterson
and Mitch Marner, they already know that they got to be producing more.
Just it's come it's become public now when the coach comes out like he did
and it says Pastornac's got to be better. But but you know, it's
it's just he obviously feels Montgomery that the Passernak will respond to that. That
versus what we see in Vancouver. Coaches try a softer approach by by Rick
Dodkin. Coaches, try that if I rip the guy publicly, will he
respond? How will he respond on? We'll see how pastorn Neck responds in
Game seven. Don't forget talk. It's been burned here. Remember in January
or whatever he said what he said Paterson game? And then remember a day
later whatever he said he got mad at the media. Yeah, you guys
ran with it. And I can't remember the phrase. Remember, I'd have
to look it up. But yeah, if there was a headline that was
then taken out of context talking got mad about that. And maybe it's the
difference between a Canadian market and an American books to the Boston cares a whole
lot about as you say, Boston isn't different Carolina like there's or Columbus.
Yeah, Boston's a great hockey market. Just I mean, they love their
hockey there. There's no offense and much about it. How about this game
seven, by the way, for the Leafs and Ruins, like the Streaks
going into this thing, it'll be Boston's up to six and clinching games now,
so that record's there, yeah, and their six games, yeah,
and the Leafs can't beat the Bruins. They're win seven or whatever it is
against the Bruins in in Game seven. Well, I think that the strangest
part of the series, it to me, is that the Leafs have been
able to come back win two straight games without Austin Without Austin Matthews, Is
he the problem tonight six o'clock. What that's gonna be the headline, the
story headline a news tonight at six more maybe in Toronto? Yeah, yeah,
Is Austin Matthews the problem? And stay tuned for Thomas Drans's interview on
Donnie Delly the Saturday. Because they're three and oh, because they won the
game in the regular season two three and oh the Leafs are without Matthews.
Yeah, Okay, they're not going into the saying, oh, we're gonna
win because Austin's not You don't think people they're not saying that. You don't
think people in Leaf's nation are saying that. And they're still playing and they're
winning without Marner producing. Still, yeah, nothing for you know who looks
great for the Leafs Goalie Husi and Domi and nobody was saying that at the
start of the season. That looked like a mistake. They look really good
playing with Marner. Yeah, I mean they do. They also paid that
money to Reeves and he was at the lineup last night, so yeah,
yeah. I wonder if Matthews comes back and I'm like, people are talking
about a possible concussion there right, there's all sorts of speculation. Yeah,
I don't know what you've heard, all sorts of speculation. Uh there.
I wonder if he comes back and if he is just hurting him, maybe
just play the power play. I wonder if that will maybe. Matthew Nis
has been very good. By the way, for the leafs out of Arizona.
