of rain coming up, says the guy who prides himself on having lived up
north for a long time. Doesn't matter, where's the sunshine? You know
what next is June. Thanks for that update on the calendar. Canucks in
Nashville on Friday, two days between games here four o'clock Pacific start. I
mean, we want to get this information out about our playoff postgame show.
Donnia Dolly. Playoff postgame show will air immediately but not necessarily on check TV.
Ryan, you have the details on that. How are you I s
So the details on this are due to a conflict with we the Fortunate Jeopardy.
We are planning on being live moments after the game on check Plus,
the Checkplus app, as well as on YouTube. If you have a smart
TV, any kind, Apple TV, anything like that, you can either
watch us on the YouTube app or download the check Plus app, which,
by the way, you can watch every one of our shows through as well.
So we're goen. We be streaming live in both those places. We're
also going to have our audio stream which we normally have for the show running
at the same time, so we're streaming only at around seven o'clock, ten
to seven something like that, as long as everything goes normal with the game.
Overtime though, will change things, but would would change things, so
there's a chance we'd be on at eight or after eight, depending on how
long the overtime. The bottom line is, this show will not be on
check until at least eight pm. If you want to see us live immediately
after the game, catch us on traditional television streaming service. Yeah, okay,
and then it'll be replayed actually tomorrow night as well late. And thanks
for that, because you know, Rick and I can. We don't just
streaming stuff and Apple stuff. I'm out. I'm out. Okay, I'm
out. We've had tons of people on the on our YouTube streaming it,
so I appreciate that everyone in the chat so far it's been fantastic. No,
it's it's been just a tremendous response. We can't thank people enough.
Okay, So, cannucks in Nashville on Friday. Goaltenders, what's going to
happen? I just assume Archer Sheeloff's is going to start, but that not
necessarily the case. Rick, what you what are you hearing? So?
Rick Talkott had a media availability last night in Nashville Donnie, and he was
asked about the goaltending and Sea Lov's going to get his third straight start.
He said he is still working on who's going to start and goal seeloves are
a Smith. But think about it. Don you want Nashville to prepare for
two goaltenders. You don't want to give him a two day heads up on
who's starting goal, especially when you know Talckett might be thinking and along with
Ian Clark. Ian Clark's got a big say in that you know who starts
right, Maybe Ian Clark is saying there's a you know, maybe we should
go back to the Smith. Don you know de Smith in the last month
and I'm going to go back to the regular season. Two huge wins,
the one in Edmonton to clinch the division and then the one of course in
Nashville when he came in or sorry, when he came in after a demko
he had another big win. So right outside and loss though, Yeah,
the Caducks are not ready to announce they're a goaltender for Game six, and
it's very simple. They want to it's game gamesmanshipped on. They don't.
They don't want that. They want Nashville to keep thinking who's starting to that?
Okay, but is there not still a health issue with Casey dismissed,
No, No, he was. He could have played last game. He
backed up. There's no way don he would have been the backup if if
if if he wasn't ready to be the starter. So I I believe he
had the lower body injury, and I believe it was very minor and he's
ready to go. There's no issues here. Did you hear anybody, including
anybody on this show, complain about Arcur he lost performance the last two games?
No, I didn't. You look at the two goals that beat him
the other night in game five. One was controversial. You could argue that
one shouldn't have counted, and the other was through a maze of bodies that
you know was understandable that that that went in. Yeah, it was a
well placed shot by Carrier, and you got to give him credit for getting
it through. There was only a little space and he got it through.
Selvs has been excellent. He's twenty three year old. Twenty three years old,
Donnie, young kid. He's not showing the nerves and as as as
Pocket keeps telling everyone, he's not allowing the big moment to get to him.
So that's a good thing for a goaltender, a young goaltender, both
goaltenders, those two goaltenders obviously that Thatcher Dempko's on the shelf, both both
one and one both have won in Nashville. Yes, and how great for
the Caducks to have two goaltenders that you know, your starter goes down and
the world was it was supposed to be all over demp Goo. The Caducks
have lost Dempko series over the Caducks. Can't you know? They can't get
through the injury a Demko. Both these guys have been great since they've come
in. Yeah, I mean that's the positive here. Yes, they're up
three to two in the series. Hard for some people to remember that,
you know, given the way things have gone on the fact their favorite to
win this series. But they are up three too, and I think what's
happening with the goaltending situation? Again, positive, we try to be positive
around here, you know me, mister positive, mister positivity. Is this
speaks to some organizational depth that they didn't have not that long ago. Even
in Absberg, they're down to their third string goalie Sachenko, who's been good.
They didn't win last night, but he's been good and he's been in
the starting position for Abspur down there and he's been good. So all the
way through they've had good organizational depth and goal abbits for losing its opener in
the series second round Series AHL two Ontario last night down in California's three to
one, Maxison got the loan abitspe and Vasili pod Colson four shots team high.
Also we wanted to show this as well, focusing again on Game six
between the Canucks and Nashville and Tennessee to more a clip from Predators reporter Alex
Doherty. We've had him on the show. If we're not right, we
haven't had him on the show. Who am I thinking of? Obviously not
Alex out of Nashville. We had our good pal Max herbs Okay, which
is nothing like Alex. Well, in my mind it is this so you
know what, though it was there was a tweet from Alex we have shown.
Oh that's why you think. There you go. There's a lot going
on here. As you know, Alex was. None of it has to
do with work. Alex was the one complaining about coming to Vancouver to try
and really embrace hockey and there was a country music fast hotel. He was
not exactly thrilled about that. Well, I'll tell you what Alex has complained
about as well, Because I was looking through his Twitter account over the past
couple of hours and the travel between Nashville and Vancouver. We mentioned the distance,
what was it again, But it's not so much about the distance,
it's that there are any direct flights. And we know people in our business
have not not complained, but they've mentioned that that's what they have to go
through. It is there no direct you know, I know he used to
be an airline pilot. God help him. No direct flights. It's not
an hour away down It's not Toronto or California. But there are you know,
two pretty uh significant cities. I just thought maybe there would be.
My wife is going to Nashville next week and she's going from Vancouver to Chicago
to Nashville coming home. She's going Nashville, Washington, d C. Home
backwards. Explain that to me on a map. That is some wild stuff.
Anyway, let's get to Alex's tweet. Yeah, we should. You
wanted to say something more about your wife's travel to your point, Nashville is
booming, is a destination, and yet in Vancouver's Vancouver, Like really,
I'm surprised now the tweet fine, Alex Dougherty, And I don't even know
if I'm pronouncing his name right, Okay, no, op, right there,
it's Dougherty. You could see it, how would you su it could
be Dorothy right, No, the t's at the end, none of the
in the middle. Moving on, Alex d with the tweet friends, reporter
Rick, you to the honors, all right? You know how to pronounce
his name. I know him. He's a good guy. Andrew Burnett says
Luke schen is still day to day illness and says there's a little bit of
an illness going around the room. Knucks were having the same issue. So
it's that time of the year, I guess, and and Donny. As
we know with minor hockey teams, one kid gets you know, with the
springtime. It's not just you know, it's everywhere any team, one kid
gets it and everybody gets it. Well school. But I work he's throwing
that in about the Canucks because Myers mis Game two with the flu was that
Edwards were there. I'm not hearing that the flu is going through the Canocks
dressing room. I have not heard that. That's what I was going for
here. I just don't see it. I haven't heard it. I don't
see evidence of it. You see the Canucks posting videos and you know we
live in a Their Twitter account is really good, don It gives you insight
into the dressing room we wouldn't have had twenty thirty years ago covering a hockey
team. But I don't see you see them in the post game after every
game. I don't see it. And I've been told that the flu is
not going through the team. And if you can see that tweet again,
if you don't mind Ryan Doherty, it is Doughty Doherty. Yeah, yeah,
so I was way on Orty. If you were off, Dorty was
not even close. How would do you think he was closer than me?
I just looked it up. As we move on, is there any chance
Andrew bannann is saying this sort of thing as part of what you just talked
about, James, You know what, we're not one hundred percent here.
I don't know how we're gonna do whatever it takes, right because because coaches
I always remember a laying Vino talking about this. You know, even if
it's just the most minute thing the league is. This is back a while
ago. I think the league's even more even these days, there's more more
parody it just the littlest thing could make a difference. So maybe, you
know, maybe it's Andrew Benette saying, hey, you for one hundred percent,
even though they they might very well be except for Luke jan Yeah,
I don't know why you throw the Canucks thing in there. I just don't
know why he's put that in the tweet. It's because of the Myers Game
two. But I just again, don I am not hearing the Canucks dressing
room is ravished with the flu. I have no ideas as we move on
looking ahead to UH Game six in Nashville on Friday, I have no idea.
I don't know if you do know if Ryan does even even Derek there,
And I just see even Derek, because he's a technical person, doesn't
necessarily involve himself in the sports conversations. All he blows you guys away when
it comes to guessing birthdays. But I have no idea what to expect.
Like, honestly, you look at all five games so far, and the
road team has won all all the last four game, last four game.
It's not like Vegas and Dallas, where you know, up until last night
the road team had won all the games. But you look at all five
games so far, all of them could have ended differently. Canucks in the
in the first game they win, they trailed in the third period, of
course. Game two, Pretz win, they gave up eighty four shot attempts.
Game three, Canucks on the road, just twelve shots. They win.
Game four, Canucks down to late two goals with a goaltender pulled.
They win in overtime. That could have gone the other way. And then
you know, last game, the Predators trailing, won nothing on the road.
Canucks had a won nothing lead and they booke their the third period.
So I have no idea what to expect. These are like Nashville finished ten
points behind the Canucks in the regular season. But this, this series has
been way more even than I think any any even the biggest Knuck fan thought
it would be. And your bang on and but we did expect six or
seven games, and that's what we got. Nobody expected a sweep, Nobody
expected this over in five this everyone predicted early six or seven. That's what
we got. On The biggest thing that I did not again, I think
so I did the majority of people in Vancouver picks. I did not see
anyone predicting a four, maybe five, but six or seven. I saw
a lot of people predicting the Canucks and six or seven. The thing that
has surprised me is the lack of Canucks gools twelve goals in five games,
and you saw what the shots and shots last in the eighteen They're only averaging
eighteen shots. I'm very surprised at a team that scored at a very good
clip during the regular season. I'm very surprised. There's only one guy going
Besser, and he got his four goals in those two games in Nashville.
The other one you saw the Owners last night, Donny twenty two goals in
five games. Now the Owners are shitting back and they beat the Kings.
They got the winner. They are gonna get their rest Edmonton's gonna get the
rest, and then they're gonna hope and pray for Nashville on Friday night because
they need these two to go to seven games and you know, knock them
out go seven games and with that travel, that's what the owners are wishing
for. Oilers advanced five against the LA, clinching it last night. Their
power play is working out forty five percent, their p K one hundred percent.
And last night they get two goals right after a power play had ended,
so it might might as well have been a power play. This's just
and they've got some pretty good players five offensively five Canucks were four and oh
against Edmonton this year. Just remember and that goes back a bit. Okay,
Well you mentioned that you mentioned the game, lay, are we to
ignore that? Ryan? You're gonna ignore that? Rick? How did they
do? But you're gonna Rick, how did they do against Nashville in the
regular season? The Canucks? What was it? Well? They were they
did very well. Yeah, thanks, thank you very much. Now,
but all those games were before December and before well, the majority of the
games you were talking about against the Oilers games early in the years. Gonna
have in Edmonton October one, that to clinch the division three four weeks ago,
October eleventh, October fourteenth, November sixth, and then April thirteenth.
Come on, happened to mine? When you preview a series, you always
ask how did the two teams do in the regular No? Not, and
so many times it means nothing like this series here. Yes, but we're
supposed to ignore that they Yes, you could talk about it and say it
means nothing, Bryan. They beat them eight one, Yes, scored and
in October nineteen fifty nine. Yeah, but got three power plays, fired
their best had four goals in that game. They fired their coach. It's
I can't even uh, we can't come off. But in the back,
we're not even there yet. They got they got to get past. That's
a very good, very good point, very good point. Okay, we've
got We're gonna hear. We hope to hear from Rick Talkeett and yesterday's media
vail. Okay, down in down in Nashville. That'll be later DTMC is
it just me? Coming up later in the show, John Shannon is going
to join us just after eleven o'clock. He's going to talk about the NHL
playoffs, But John is in Saint John's, Newfoundland. Bob Cole's funeral takes
place tomorrow on the Rock Big Ride. The Quitter Guy coming up later this
hour and up next from TSN. He hosted the CFL Draft on TSN earlier
this week. He can talk about the NFL and I'll tell you what.
Kristin Covington from Vancouver has played the last eight seasons in the National Football League
he has signed with the BC Allions. Farhank can talk about that and about
what's happening with the Canucks. He's next. Thanks so much for tuning in,
Folks, Donny and Dolly the team on check Dollie and Dolly the team
is supported by Abelauctions dot Ca. So I was in your business where you
can help Thursday in All of today's guest including Farhand, Lolsey standing by brought
to you by the Vancouver Giants. Giants now taking deposits for the twenty four
to twenty five campaign. Put your deposit down before May third receive a complimentary
Giants hat. For more information, head to vancoverag Giants dot com or call
six oh four for Giants. Just before we get to Farhand, logy from
TSN A day from Lake College, and why aren't the Canucks putting big Zed
as a net presence on the bar? Play have EP forty on the point
filtering risters through. I think maybe you want Quinn Hughes there, as what
they are presently doing is the definition of insanity. We had people talking yesterday
about replacing Pedersen with Heronic, although some people are down on Heronic as well.
Let's see what Farhand thinks, he joins us from Tsan Farhand. Thanks
for doing this, sir. How are you? I'm good. How you
guys doing very well? Any idea what to expect in this series? That
were in game six, maybe a game seven. We talked about this in
the first segment of Farhand. Every game could have ended differently with a different
result, with a different team winning very easily. Any idea what to expect.
I expect very few Vancouver Canucks shots. I expect probably very few Vancouver
Canuck goals, whether or not it's enough to win the game. I mean,
they can still win a two to one hockey game. I don't think
that. I don't think that would shock anybody. I'm not suggesting to lose,
but yeah, it's just the margins have been so fine in this series,
and you're right, I mean every one of them, as much as
the Canucks, you know, scored those two late goals in Game four and
really stole it. Certainly Nashville stole Game two, and you know game I
thought Game five was pretty even, but certainly the Canucks had the lead,
and we know how good the Canucks are when they have a lead. I
wouldn't expect a ton of power play goals, right, It's not like Nashville's
power play was snapping it around. They got a fortunate goal. You know,
they could have been called back. It kind of almost came against the
run of the play. It kind of came out of nowhere right when you
when you really look at it in terms of how the game flow is going.
So it's hard to know what to expect. You know, I've always
said momentum is fleeting. There doesn't exist in the playoffs. So I through
Nashville, you feel pretty good, but you probably felt horrible the other day
and you came back. So maybe Vancouver can flip the switch the same way
or flipped the script the same way here. Do you think the Canucks have
come close to playing their best hockey in this series or does that just say
a lot about Nashville. Look, you got to give Nashville a certain amount
of credit, but like Nashville is not a team that has prevented shots all
season. I think they were the tenth worst in the league. They were
giving up over thirty shots a game, so the Canucks should be able to
generate more. But I think the Canucks are playing good defensive hockey, right.
I mean, you also look at a national team that was scoring really
effectively out of the All Star break. Their power play was really effective out
of the All Star break, and the Canucks have taken a lot of that
away. But you know, the problems we saw with Vancouver late in the
season with what their their own power play looked like and how little they were
generating offensively, I think that's kind of rooded ugly head along with just the
tightness of playoff hockey. So it's you know, the problems we saw late
in the season that a lot of people decided to dismiss and say, hey,
let's just get to the playoffs. Probably not real, right, you
know, And it just it reminds me so much of twenty twelve guys like
I and it just shows that we're all aging here. But you go back
to twenty twelve and the Canucks, we're scoring less coming out of the All
Star break, and we would go into talk to Hendrick and Daniel and they
would tell us this is how you got to play in the playoffs, right,
these low scoring games are setting us up for the playoffs. And saw
what happened in that first round, right, So I just think we're seeing
a carryover. We're seeing a carryover with Petterson, you know, even the
Lindholm Joshua Garland line, right like, they look so good in Game one,
got the overtime goal. But in terms of you know, in terms
of consistency of generating pressure and things like that, there's only one line and
the Canucks have going right now, and that's the Miller line. They're active,
they're noticeable. Everybody else has been quiet. Somebody's got to step up
tonight. All right, Canucks fever in town. We know this. But
the BC Lions with a big move as well. Side Christian Covington nine years
in the NFL. He's a home boy, you know, Vancouver College.
His dad's in the CFL Hall of Fame. Grover, your thoughts on the
Lions signing a pretty significant name. I think it's big, I really do.
And you know, you can debate what the Lions did or didn't get
out of the draft, but knowing that they had this in their back bucket
to announce the next day, I'm sure had something to do with some of
their decisions. And I just got off a conference call with Christian, you
know, who I've known since he was literally in the third grade. And
I know you guys are going to have him on a little bit later,
but you know, the one thing with him is that he just believes he's
got a lot of football left in the tank. This isn't a victory tour
right where he can just, you know, call it quits at the age
of thirty one a year from now after playing one year in the CFL and
having it like that, So he still wants to play some more, whether
all of that is here or whether or not it parlays into an opportunity back
down there, you know, who knows. But I think he's hungry,
and I think he's motivated, and he's not like just an NFL player that's
come up here that thinks it's going to be easy. He understands what this
league looks like and knows it a good league. And his dad, having
had the success that he had, certainly gives him every bit of education that
he needs. And the legacy of his father and his family name also matters,
right, So I do think that he's proud and he's going to bring
that pride with him to the Lions. And I think it's said it's a
massive addition for this team in this d line that lost Matthew Betts. I
think you got to feel great about being able to roll Christian Covington out there.
You know, the Lions drafted Covington in twenty fifteen. They never let
go of his CFL rights, and then they kept in touch with him,
and then a couple of months ago Covington, you know, called the Lions
and said, hey, you don't want to You know, I talked to
my dad and one now I know why the Lions drafted in the CFL draft
THEO Benedette second round, despite the fact he sided with the Chicago Bears.
What did you think of that draft pick? Didn't like it? And let
me let's be clear, I love the player, right, Like if everybody
thought THEO Bennett was going to play in the CFL, he probably would have
gone number one overall. So I'm glad they took him. It was smart
in business, just not in the second round. Like look at where they's
a Christian, right, so you know, and he's not a case of
they didn't let go of his rights. Like if you're a drafted player,
his rights are maintained unless he ever comes up here signs a contract and then
gets released. So that was just theirs and it was fortunate, you know,
Christian, Let's let's not call the unusual the norm, right, Like,
this doesn't happen, Christian. You know, most guys play nine years,
they make their millions, they don't want to do any more damage to
their body, and they're done with football before they come back to the CFL.
So this is not the norm, and and it's worked out for them.
If it's me, I take THEO Bennett and round four, round five,
you know, and if he ever comes back, great, But I
mean he got a significant signing bonus, so he's going to at least be
in the NFL for a couple of seasons. You know, in the aligneman
get a longer shelf life. Like you look at a guy like Carter O'Donnell,
who you know, spent five years down there, he didn't get a
sniff of game action. And now he actually got a little bit of time
with the Cardinals last year because those guys have a little bit longer runway to
develop, especially now with expanded practice rosters in the NFL. So again,
love THEO Bennett the player. Let me be clear, and if he ever
comes here, call me wrong, that's great, right, like if he
comes here in any short order. But to me, if I was the
Lions, I would have taken him a little bit later. That was a
really good defensive lilignment with a lot of upside named Luke Brubaker from Wilfrid Laurier
who got taken with the next pick. And also understand the Lions had the
nineteenth pick, so you know, which was a bonus pick. They could
have potentially gone with THEO there. Nobody else was going to take him in
between. So again, great player, but I'm not sure I would have
taken him that high. Let's talk about the NFL Draft for a second.
Last week on this station, you made a prediction or a forecast that the
Patriots were going to take Drake May out of North Carolina quarterback. You didn't
like that idea. They lo and Behold went out and did that. Do
you still feel the same way? Do you still feel they they made a
big mistake, keeping in mind Nathan Rourke is there as well, not factoring
Nathan Rourke in at all, like a separate discussion. I hated the Patriots
taking a quarter of back in three and I have tons of questions about Drake
May. Drake May misses a lot of the easy throws, right, Like,
he's got so much physical talent. He can run, he's big,
he's got a strong arm, he's got so much of that. But there's
a lot of easy layup throws, shorter throws that you just like, simple
ones that he misses and down the field. His numbers against man coverage are
not good, and I don't necessarily like his decision making in critical situations.
So just tons of tools would make any scout drool. But the film has
as many questions as it does greatness, so I'm not a fan. And
then from a patriot perspective, that roster's horrible, right whether you're whether you're
Jacoby Brissett, whether you're Drake May, whether you're Nathan Orke, it's gonna
be tough to have success with the lack of offensive weapons that New England has.
When you look at some of these other teams, like the Bears,
like the Vikings, their rosters are set up to bring a quarterback in,
put them in the greatest possibility to succeed and take advantage of his rookie salary,
right like, you got a great team and a quarterback and you can
you can prop them up. And you know, the Patriots were not ready
to take a quarterback at that spot. Like the player, if he is
forced in early, is going to fail. And and yeah, I mean
they're gonna be back in the spot next year. So hopefully they do the
right thing by Drake Mann, letting Jacoby Brissette play and not throwing Drake made
of the Wolves with a terrible team around him. Okay, far ahead as
we let you go here. You can tell your bosses at TSN that if
the Canucks advance and they play the Oilers, that the Canucks will win that
series because they beat them a couple of times in a core time four and
oh that that means according to Rick, that means that sweep the Oilers.
Tell your boss that, but we're just going to ignore that. Look.
Rick also thinks every player should get paid big. We know this. I
I wonder why the door off Milstein keep an eye on it, get paid,
ironic paid. No, he and Cole I have clearly said heronic asking
for eight million is ridiculous and too much and the conduct shouldn't do that.
Okay, but that's because you're setting the conducts have to pay seven point seven.
That means he doesn't get along with Ronic's agent. No no, no,
no no no no fire. Thanks for this. See boys, tell
your bosses. Yeah, okay. Up next is who is a nice?
By the way, Oh, it's open. We haven't introduced the poll question.
Yeah, Kristin Coventon is going to join us just after eleven o'clock or
on eleven fifteen, John Shannon at the top of the hour. Up next

question has to do as you might expect with the Predators and Canucks. Here's
one of Victoria's favorite pubs where you can enjoy twenty taps, twenty screens your
home for the Canucks and UFC comp sit and stay at the dog today,
Rick all right, ry get her up the waddling dog pop pole question?
Should Nikita is a door off be more of a priority for the Canucks to
extend than Philip peronic a wopping? Seventy six percent say yes and uh twenty
four percent say no. Already twelve hundred votes. It's hoping, it's popping,
it's not stopping, it's it's going. It's a good question, keeping
in mind that it's a different situation here. Nikita z a door off UFA,
Philip Paronic r f A restricted Delaney's okay. Taron Langley inbox has been
full of complaints about Philip Heronic. Oh, a lot of criticism. And
I think what's at play here? And I know you disagree with this,
but you know, here's somebody looking for a lot of money. Yeah right,
you talk to his agent, I think right, And he's looking for
a lot of money and that plays into it. People expect expectations. Well
now you're agreeing with well, we's you know what Peterson, The contract asking
demand obviously plays into it. Don But he's asking for each according to you,
people just criticized because he doesn't start making six till next year. But
but he's at four point four right now. I think Coronia is and he's
asking for over eight, which is the Canucks are nowhere near that. If
the Canucks thought eight million was okay for heronic data sign the deal by now,
the fact that deal's not done tells you they got some serious issues about
saying yes to that. Nikita's a draw off as a cult hero, right,
Oh, forget forget about cult. Everybody in Connivation loves this guy right
now. He's been outstanding the playoffs and when they what they acquire him in
November, right, and I thought he was really he's obviously noticeable given his
size. Whether he was bad or good in Calgary, I think he's gotten
better. And I think that says a lot about Adam Footen, most Serge
Gonshar and Rick Tockett. And look at how much he's being played by Rick
Hockett in the postseason and how effective he's been and how much the crowd loves
him. Guy sells tickets on top of everything. At top of being effective
on the ice, He's great for business. He's had clearly the biggest hits
in the series. He had a team leading four for all defense. My
last game. JT. Miller had all players with seven hits last game.
But look at the hits on one on McDonough oh one, and look at
the hits on Look at the twenty one minutes last game, his minutes from
the regular season to the playoffs. Look at his minutes. But I keep
saying this year, and I'm sorry, you're gonna have to say this to
Knuck fans. He's a left shot defenseman. The Canucks have Susie and Hughes
with term and money on the left side. They're set on the left side.
Don they don't have issues on the Susie can play right. I'm gonna
get to that. But look at the right circle, Cole, the Heronic
RFA, Myers UFA. They are playing a left shot defenseman, Cole on
the right side and juleson a right shot defenseman, is sitting out. Their
issues are on the right side. They need to stable the right side,
and that's where the money's gonna go. It's not gonna go to the left
side of the defense, unfortunately for zador Off. And here's the other one
for you Milstein. You know, Milstein's he's licking his chops right now.
He's gonna get away. He's gonna get big offer, He's gonna get offers.
There's gonna be a lineup to get zador Off on July first if he
doesn't sign in Vancouver, and Milstein is looking for term and I'm not talking
three or four years. I'm talking term, and I'm talking big term.
And he's gonna get over five million. He's licking his chops. Caducks can't
do that. Caducks can't have him five you know. And then what are
you gonna do with the Myers? What are you gonna do with Theronic?
It's a verybe somebody else moves on from that left side. That makes he
makes allows you to fit zador Off in. And a couple of things.
Number one, Quinn Hughes is having a Norris Trophy caliber season. Yes,
likely to win the Norrith Trophy. I think we've all we would all agree
with that. Who's his partner for most of the season. That helps his
his negotiations, no question about that. The other thing is, and I'll
let the cat out of the bag. You know, you go on and
on about the Canucks getting Brandon Dylon from Winnipeg. He's a hometown Caddy said
UFA, No, and we brand is the nicest guy in the world.
Like you know, he's been such a solid hockey player for so long from
Surrey. He shoot right or left. Oh he shoots left. Five But
that's okay. Can't get him. Just stop. He's not gonna get five
play million, don He's going to be at a lower rate. He's going
to be at a much lower rate than the door off. And the other
thing you made a good point of ironic. You have to give him credit
for being a right shot first pair d in Vancouver and playing with Quinn Hughes.
You could put ten guys with can use Quinn Hughes. They may not
have the skating and they may not have the hockey sense to play with Quinny
Hughes. He's pulled it off. Give him credit. But you also are
going to outprice yourself in the market, and that happened with Borehovett. What
happened with Horvett, Donny trade it. If you outprice yourself in any market,
the possibility of a trade is there, and that's something we have to
look at. If he continues to ask for a you could also argue this
is stretching it a lot, that you could put a pylon on the right
side and it would do well with Quinn Hughes on the left side. I
wouldn't go that far. I'm joking, right, but hey, remember BJ
McDonald, I you you were gonna say that. Remember what they said about
BJ McDonald. Who said it, Glenn say that? Yeah? Yeah,
because BJ scored fifty plus goals with Wayne Gretzky in Edmonton in the eighties.
Yeah, Fire Hydrant, I think that's what say. Either said a comparison,
he was fifty with Gretzky. Okay, there's some news in Ryan Henderson.
You can thank help us out and we thank you for this. The
watch party tomorrow at Rogers Arena. It's been in an off and on situation
there because of concerts, but it's on again tomorrow four o'clock. You understand
the response has been overwhelming. It's so overwhelming that it's sold out there.
You go, wow, it is sold out. They put tickets on sale
like later yesterday. That is when I saw the release and then it was
announced this morning, the Canucks announcing that it's sold out. The only thing
I don't know. He is at eighteen thousand, I don't know. I
don't know what exactly that means. How many tickets they put on sale.
Did they put upper and lower? Did they just put lower? I'm not
sure. Them saying sold out though, leads me to believe it's the whole
building only because if it wasn't the whole building, they would have just been
adding on. They would have said, hey, lower bowls sold out like
they did. I think for the first the first game, the only other
watch party, Hey, Louris bowls that sold out. We're now selling into
the upper down. And that's what they did. So yeah, the second
second road game, there was a con there was a concert there that was
who was the Timberlake? That was Timberlake, Yeah, Timberlake. Yeah,
so that was not possible for they lowered the scoreboard. It's it's quite an
exten I believe they handed out towels and the whole thing and the concessions are
open. Yeah, I mean I knew fifteen Bucks. I knew a few
people that went, and you know it was they said it was a really
good atmosphere inside and the main theme with everyone going was, Hey, this
is our way of feeling like we're part of this Knuck playoff run because we're
never gonna be able to This is our way of being able to afford going
to Rogers. Does that mean, yeah, you're never gonna be able to
afford getting into an actual game, so at least you're in there being able
to, you know, have the vibe within the Knuck fans while watching the
game. I got at home man cave zoned in. Well not right now?
Well here, yeah, we're here usually get what I'm talking about.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, same, But I mean there's there's fans out
there they enjoy this sort of thing. Yeah, they enjoy the vibe.
Yeah, and you know there's hard enough of a vibe by myself. Yeah.
Well, and I know you'd usually do what a great hockey market,
though not every not every city could do this. They can't, I'm sorry,
but if you did the viewing, the Canadian cities can do this.
And also, uh, a Canadian city that has been deprived of the playoffs
for nine years, you know, because of you know, COVID the playoffs
that that didn't count, but nine years of a fan base that got denied
and now just a really good story. They have celebrated like this since that
eight win or eight one win over Ebinson and stop it, stop it.
Uh, I'm gonna do Able Auctions here. We're gonna talk about about our
title sponsor. We're gonna do some business and then we're gonna hear from Rick
talking to break Elis Kitchen and Bath in pent Elis Kitchen and bathicted. It's
gone bankrupt. They weren't selling enough product, I guess, and Able Auctions
has been instructed to sell it all late model wood shop equipment, including an
omnitext and seat. You're good omnitext CNC router. You see that button beside
you, the cough button. We got to fix the button. Come on,
no, I pushed it. Look I put it hard like put that
on auction. Holds her, That's what it says. Here, I know
I don't get it. Here holds her sprint edge bander, a Gatto Matt
CNC parametric drill and clamping machine, high end compressors. I'm looking for a
faucet here, what's I'm looking for? Tubs? And uh, you know,
shower screens. What's going on? Shower screen shower curtain, curtain curtains.
Anyways, I didn't see any of that. A Niederman central dust collection
system, uh, delivery trucks, and a whole lot more. I guess
this is what Maybe that's what they went out of business. Hey, we've
got a kitchen in bath story here. We also sell dust collection systems.
What's going on here? They've got to build. This is like a custom
company, right, Okay, so they've got to build the stuff they need.
So they're the ones building the tops. Well not the top maybe necessarily.
But when you hear kitchen and bolence, you're thinking toilets, shinks.
I'm not often dust collection systems. If your pipes, okay, pipes,
well that's true. But if you're building cabinets, yeah, for information on
this cabinet shop bankruptcy auction or to get your cab cabinets now it makes sense,
right, or to get your cabinet shops yuess they should have pre read
this. Huh. To get your cabinet shops sold at auction, go to
abele Auctions dot CAA, b l E Auctions dot c A. As we
go to break here, I'm gonna hear from Rick Talckett just as we get
ready for Big Rye, the quitter guy. Nashville better on the road,
and we've seen evidence of that. They won two games at Rodgers Arena in
this series. Better on the road than at home during the regular season Canucks,
and much better at home than on the road, but still solid on
the road road twenty three, fourteen and four fifty points on the road for
the Canucks. Excellent in a couple of wins in this series. I talking
mentioned last night in Nashville that we are a very good road team. Yes,
we're gonna hear from him in the second law as I mentioned, very
good road record this year for the Canucks, as they as they just mentioned,
so Ricktockett, as we go to break get ready for Big Rye.
Rick Talckett on winning two games in Nashville so far are and being very comfortable
away from home. Yeah, we've been a pretty good road team all year,
So I think we're comfortable playing outside our building. You know, sometimes
we play actually better on the road, but uh, you know this is
a tough building. You know that we know that there's a couple of games
there maybe we didn't deserve, just like you know, we thought game five
we deserve. So it's one of those series that doesn't really matter. It's
who wins the game. And you've talked about the closed out game of a
series and the hardest accomplish beyond the obvious of just the desperation level of the
other team. What makes it so difficult to get that done well? I
think that obviously the desperation or the other team is a big one, and
I think you have to match it, and you have to be comfortable in
a tight game. I think that's really important. You have a zero zero
late in the game, even if it's one nothing, you know, going
in the third. I think you've got to be very comfortable playing in that
and just you know, by your time for your chances. I think sometimes
when you when you want to close out, you push the envelope too much
and the next you know you're giving up Biden Man Rush its power plays,
you know, and things like that. The Bayside Resort is a boutique luxury

had a big ride the Twitter guy Delaney's ok Tyran Langley inbox, and we're
getting a lot of this Phil and Langley. I have a trip booked to
Nashville flying direct from Vancouver on west Jet. So there are direct flights from
Vancouver to Nashville thanks to west Jet. We weren't aware of that. Everything
we hear from people in our business, So what are people in our business
though that there weren't any direct flights. But it's not just Phil. There
are other people in the Delaney's Okay Aryan Langley inbox saying the same thing.
I'd be curious to find out when Phil booked that, because I do wonder
because we've seen this with other places. Phil, We've seen this with other
places as well. If a team gets involved in you know, they'll make
accommodations. So that's a special route, right we saw a boy be that
much demand. Well, I mean they're I guess they're banking on it in
between media people like other people and fans. I guess probably. Like I
say, I'm just surprised to start a year round thing by now, because
i'd like to go. I've never been there. I'd like to go,
not necessarily as a hockey fan. You've never been there. I guarantee that
I have not. But you've been to a honey talk right? What honey
North? Didn't you you did some line dancing? Right? Oh? Yeah?
Yeah? Half the bars are up North or country bars? What about
the old wooden barrel in the US Burnaby border? No? No, it

now it's been sitting there for like dormant, pre pandemic, just chilling to
the bull there. Yeah, yes, and I believe you went on at
topless. It was when the topless bull riding I think was like Wednesday nights
or something like that. Yeah, what I was never there for that.
It's a good workout. I maintained no disrespect to anyone. I'm not exactly
fabio. The people that usually partake in that sort of thing are people you
don't necessarily want to see topless male or female. I'm not so sure I
want to see fabio. It'd be better than some Okay, let's head to
Nashville. Now we're talking about the direct flights. We're gonna go to that.
Speaking of a topless bull riding, here's a tweet from Thomas Drants.
Uh oh, first, a bad site. The Canucks are a scheduled to
practice in six minutes at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. Here's the first bit of
infoy. Drants Casey to Smith out on the ice ahead of practice, working
with Ian Clark, and you see that photo there. This is bad for
the podcast, so I apologize, can't do that. He's doing the full
on stretch, the full on splits, so I mean that lower body injury,
lower body injury is gone. But the story here, the focus is
he's likely not going to be starting. Yeah, that's what you guys read
into this right well before Game five, the practice or sorry of the game
day. He came out early with Ian Clark as well, so this kind
of leads you to believe that Ian's working with him. How's the injury,
you know, trying to get him in you know, to come back from
an injury. I think this tells us the Sea Laws is probably getting to
start tomorrow night, which I don't think would be considered as surprise. No,
no, no, he's got the hot hand. He's you know,
he's won back or sorry. In the two games he's played, he has
not looked bad. Donnie Solid, I've got another tweet, and this is
We're gonna have to find out more of this after practice. But JT.
Miller, and this is a piece of video critics Thomas drants. JT.
Miller is wearing a pink patterned custom practice jersey, which Murphy is now reporting
is actually Arthur Sea Love's dress shirt that Miller for some reason is wearing for
today's practice in Nashville. So maybe they're, you know, trying to have
a little fun. Everything's okay. They're still off a game in the series,
so we'll obviously have to wait for more after practice. But I like
it. That's leadership. That's a veteran guy. You know, he played
in the Eastern Conference Final with the Rangers. Yeah, but there's a guy
that's got some playoff experience, and I still think he's the emotional leader of
the Caducks. I don't you're alone on that. Oh no kidding, but
he is. So you're not alone on that. I'm not alone on that.
I know that he is for me, the emotional leader. He's the
guy that puts the team on the back. That's a great move. Have
you seen this Gretzky clip the Tallahassee Smith clip. No, no, it's
really good. It's from the T and T broadcast. They got to nowhere,
pressure filled situation. They were the oilers were on the road and say,
there brings in this cowboy, this old grizzled cowboy for a inspirational wow
speech Tallahassee Smith out of nowhere. It was so outrageous. Everybody laughed and
loosened them up and on they went to another Stanley Cup. It's quite good,
and same sort of thing, you know, just do something outrageous and
just just loose. It's, you know, quick, it's not that serious
a game. Let's focus, let's win. Yeah, yep, yeah,
no, definitely definitely good movie. Okay, you know what I'm gonna call
a little bit of an audible. Derek only played this second clip, not
the first clip, just the second clip. I don't know if you guys
have seen this Matt Hilton story. He's a bee keeper. Hold on,
I need the crow. Ah, I should have had some bees instead.
So the other night, Tuesday night, Diamondbacks Dodgers, two hours delay because
bees gathered behind home plate. Here's playing to the crowd, this bee keeper.
He comes and he gets rid of it. Look this massive quality of
bees. Yeah, the Dodgers game delayed two hours. There he is sucking
them up after smoking him out. So again, this guy's having the time
of his life. They end up asking him to throw out a new first
pitch because the game had been delayed for so long two hours. So he
throws out the first pitch, and he was at his son's t ball game
when he got the call that he had to go out perfect and help out.
So a lot of people are He had a media conference, a press
conference as well. After throwing out the first pitch. People are having a
lot of fun with it, including the folks at TOPS. How about this.
They've signed a deal with Matt Hilton and they're making autograph cards from his
all time great performance get Away again. So they're having again. Tops is
very good at doing customizable fun cards. The other night, New York Mets
sold the most amount of loony dogs in history forty forty two thousand, something
like that. And they've had a card now from that game. They're having
fun these little collectibles, right. But this Matt Hilton, and he's a
confident guy. If you look it up, you see some of his clips
where he was talking about he was playing to the crowd. The spotlight felt
hot on him when he was trying to get rid of the bees. Just
this whole thing. But it was a scary sight and they had to evacuate
the entire section behind home plate because the colony just kept growing and growing and
growing. And then they delayed the game. They made the announcement two hour
delay. So scary stuff. I don't forget. Remember that Indian Wells tournament
a match tennis match. Remember there was the bees during that, like a
month ago, and they were just flying all over the place that it was
like all of a sudden, these bees came in. It's a scary thing
and bees. I don't like him. And of course I tell my famous
story little Ryan in the day, Oh yeah, in Fleetwood, hit by
a bike, youngster. I'm a youngster hit by a bike. You were
walking. I was just walking. My buddy was on his bike and he
was just you know, riding around. I'm not paying attention. I'm probably
like under ten. I get hit by the bike. I'm crying walking home
to see you know, mister and Missus Henderson. I get stung by a
bee as well, So then I just go on the level of being upset.
So that's my traumatic bee story. So I'm gonna tell that to young
Max. You know, you gotta be careful with these bees. They don't
mess around. So that Matt Hilton was around, I would have been saved.
I would have been saved. Coming up next, big eleven o'clock hour
ahead, we've got newest member of the BC Lions, Christian Covington, coming
up at eleven fifteen. But up next John Shannon. He's on his way
to the funeral service for Bob Cole happening in Saint John's on Friday. So
we talked to John about that as well as what's happening with the Canucks and
Predators and the orders advancing last night as well. It's all ahead, Sonny
the team on check. Hey everyone, it's Donnie and Dolly and we're looking
to partner with your company. We have several packages and price points to fit

Giants is John Shannon joins us NHL analyst Coast of the Bob McCollen podcast,
and he joins us from Saint John's, Newfoundland, where he will be attending
the funeral for Bob Coole, the late Great Bob Cole. John. Thanks
for doing this, sir, making time for us today, are you always?
I'm great. By the way, if Toygo gave away a triple Oberger
with the hat, you'd get more season ticket all due. Yeah, Well,
maybe he'll double up next year. After that suggestion, Hey, John,
in all seriousness, I would imagine today Bob Cole's funeral, as I
state the obvious here will be emotional for you saying goodbye to a friend,
and as as a Canadian kid, it'll be It'll be tough, Yeah,
it will be. You know. Visitation is today, funeral is actually on
Friday, so it's a family time to connect with his former wife Karen and
the the four kids. It's fascinating though, guys. You know, it
was a week ago that we learned that Bob had passed away. But because
of technology and YouTube and social media, his talents and his skill and his
passion for hockey have lived through this week and we'll live forever. And it's
one of the great positives about being alive in twenty twenty four. So generations
a lot longer than the three of us can enjoy what Bob Cole did.
God bless them. We'll take a tough turn here, John and talk about
what's going on in the NHL playoffs, But just your opinion of the job
the Predators are doing, giving the Cannucks so much trouble in this first round,
Well, it's the only way they're going to win. And when you
compare the way the other series have gone, the Oiler series, the Jets
series, they're a lot faster, and I'm sure the Canucks would like to
play a lot faster, but Andrew Burnett has his team playing away that it's
the only way they're going to succeed and beat the Vancouver Canucks. And it's
not pretty at times. But for Predators fans, I'm sure they're quite satisfied.
I still think and maintain the Canucks will win this series. They have
better talent, they have a better will to win in my mind, and
that was the measure of Besser and Miller in Game four. So this is
just a matter of time and in my opinion, postponing the inevitable of having
a victory, which means we're going to get a Canadian Canadian series in the
next round, which means a Canadian team will be in the final four.
You mentioned Andrew Burnett there, and we all know that he was ousted in
Florida his first ground as a head coach. What's the general consensus on him
as a bench boss? Oh, I think that there's a few teams that
interviewed Burnett after he left Florida, and maybe even the Devils themselves who hired
him as an associate coach that are regretting that they let him go or didn't
hire him at the time, he interviewed very well for a few teams,
and the relationship that he had with Barry Trotz and with the city of Nashville,
consider he played for the Predators, I think one out. He's a
modern day coach, understands what players need and players want. He has a
good tactical lie and he's also hard fisted and heavy handed when he needs to
be. You know, the best example of that is the discussion and decision
that he and Trotz made about the trip to the Sphere that seemed to have
changed this fortune for this hockey club earlier this season. But Andrew Bennett's a
you know, it's hard to talk about a guy being young in his forties,
but Andrew Bennett's a good young coach. John whoever comes out of Vancouver
Nashville, they're gonna have to be really aware of the Oiler's power play nine
for twenty in the first round against the Kings. I mean, they didn't
even give up a power play goal that entire series five on five was even.
But the special teams is the reason they are moving on and the Kings
are not. Well. You can I don't have my notes in front of
me, Rick, but I don't think the Oilers allowed to a penalty power
play goal for twelve. Kings were all for twelve. Yeah, So I
mean, not only was their power play lethal and it didn't get credit for
two goals last night that occurred two or three seconds after the guy left the
box, but their penalty kill was very good too. It appears that this
is an Evanson Eider team that has come of age. Now it's five games
and they have certainly dealt the King's a big blow. But there seems to
be that extra effort that not only are the Stars giving, but everybody's giving,
and they are getting good goaltending. Stuart Skinner has been very good.
That was a fluky goalie had to give up last night at one one,
but Skinner's been solid through the whole playoff series. All eyes on Toronto tonight,
We're told this morning Matthews and no go Can they do it again?
John the Leafs tonight? Why not? You know, Danton Heine is not
going to play for the Bruins either. I'm not sure that that's a fair
trade off if you're a Bruin fan. But you know, I actually think
Rick that there's a ton more pressure on Jim Montgomery right now than there is
on Sheldon Keith simply. And I know it's fifty seven years and I know
that it's heartache for Maple Leaf fans, But with no Matthews and William Leylander
obviously is at one. Jim Montgomery's been down this road before last year,
up three to one, lose at home in overtime at that both times,
and then go on the road and lose on the road, and then lose
at home again. The only thing I think that is in better shape for
the Bruins this time is there isn't a question who the better goalie is for
Boston. We know it's Slayman. He's going to play, He's going to
be the key. And Brad mar Shant, who has been a huge different
maker in the games in Toronto, you have to think that he's going to
be a difference maker tonight again as well. Can you put into words how
disappointing the Winnipeg Jets early exit was. Oh, it was shocking, And
if you hear the postgame comments and then the exit meeting comments from the players,
I think it was shocking to them too. It wasn't for lack of
effort. It wasn't for lack of trying. Connor Hallibuck said, in fact,
that he was really dialed in and playing great goal and couldn't see the
pocket times they were shooting it so well. That talks to the elite level
of five or six members of the Colorado Avalanche. That we're playing at a
much higher, much more complete level than anybody on the Winnipeg Jets. Again,
not a criticism of the Jets, but anybody in the Western Conference just
beware. Colorado's focused like this for the next round, in the round after
that, they're going to be a tough out. This story is making the
rounds even though we're into the playoffs. But can you envision Rod Brindemore,
whose contract is about to end. Can you envision him leaving Carolina? No,
I don't understand the storyline coming out now. Rod yesterday a local television
addressed it. He was very comfortable in talking about it. You know,
it's important to this time of year to be able to compartmentalize what you have
to do as a coach as a player. And this is another one of
those times for rod Ridnemore that after every post game now between the time and
when they finished, the Hurricanes do that. He's going to be asked the
coaching question. But I would hope that he's able to stay focused on the
task at hand for the Hurricanes. Rod Brindimore and the Hurricanes were you know,
they were made for each other. He was made for that franchise,
he was made for that city. I'd be shocked in some form of manner
that he left at this key time. John, thanks for this and all
the best of the Cole family, and thank you boys. Have a great
day, and yes we'll be thinking about Robert cecil Cole. Thanks, John,
appreciate it. Talk to you next week. John Shannon on his way

I am excellent? Good to say good to talk to both of you
again. You bet you've been on our show before. What led to this?
You must be excited? What led to this decision? Christin? It
was a lot of prayer, a lot of just wisdom guidance that I took
from my family. This just was a moment for me to be able to
continue, you know, this football journey. You know, this game has
given me so much, It's blessed me with so much, and I just
know I'm still I'm still at the you know, top of my game right
now. I have so much left in the tank. I know, football
for me is just I'm not done with this game, and I know it's
not done with me, and it just so happens that, you know,
I feel like, you know, this is just a part of the journey
right now, part of my personal journey, this path that God put me
on to be able to take my talents you know, back home, and
I'm just so glad and fortunate to be able to, you know, suit
up for the Lions. I never thought, yeah, I never thought that
this day would come, but here it is, and I'm excited to get
to get to work. Lions drafted you in twenty fifteen at the CFL draft,
of course, So how did all this happen? And did you stay
in touch with the Lions through the years in recent years, Yes, I've
been obviously I've been keeping i mean keeping my eye on the team for many
years. You know, They've always had my support from you know, from
the South, from the South, and I've been a big fan of this
team for a long time obviously. You know, it's a team that I
grew up watching, you know, you know, whether I was at the
game or you know, on the television, you know, this is this
team that's always you know, been in been in my heart. And so
just yeah, just you know, fortune would have it that, you know,
everything lined itself up to have me, uh, you know, have
me give me the opportunity to you know be able to play you know with
you know in my home, in my hometown, right in my you know,
right in my backyard. You know. It's just one of those things
where I've been, you know, for the past year and a half,
I haven't really played, you know, in an organized game in the year
and a half. You know, the previous season, I was you know,
recovering from a torn peck. Last season, it was a humbling season
of just being you know, on a practice squad. And you know,
even though I was you know, in shape, still be doing football,
It's just you know, when you're not able to actually play. You know,
it takes it. It could take a toll on you from a mental
standpoint, from an emotional standpoint, because you know, I've been this is
a game I've been playing since I was eleven twelve years old, you know,
So for me, this is just an opportunity for me to be able
to get back into the game that I love. This is a game that
I've been you know, as I said, I've been playing since I was
a child, and this is an opportunity for me to be able to do
so. Right to my hometown Christian nine years in the NFL, Well,
I wanted to ask you what the perception of the CFL is down South.
Did you ever talk to some players who tried the CFL came down or maybe
they asked you for advice. What's the perception of the CFL down South?
For NFL players? The CFL has its respect at the end of the day,
we know that this is at the end of the day. Football is
a difficult game. It is a physical game. It's a challenging game.
It meant it's not meant for the week of you know, physically weak or
mentally weak, and it's a game that will test you to your limits.
They will test you to your breaking point. And at the end of the
day, people know that whatever league you're in, you are a professional.
At the end of the day, you are pro. You are playing this
game and being compensated as such. Now, you know, obviously you know
the you know, there is you know, main differences between you know,
the NFL, the UH just the sheer numbers and the viewership and whatnot,
you know, worldwide, But you know there the respect is there for you
know, the players, for the league itself. I've played with so many
guys who have you know, gone back and forth between both leagues. Obviously
this is going to be my first time, you know, and you know,
but it's it's also one of those things where it's the league has always
have my respect. It's always everybody I've talked to is always you know,
there's always been a reverence for it because at the end of the day,
it's like you're talking from one professional to another. I know this this game
of football. You know, at the end of the day, it's a
it's it's from a player's perspective, it is a brotherhood and we you know,
we it's A. There's not there's not that many of us playing Christian
and Donnie and I remember your dad loved watching him on TV. He was
obviously a CFL Hall of Famer. Uh did he play a role in in
you signing a BC, because I think I saw a quote from you saying
I talked to my dad about it, but I did. Did did that
go down? I did? No? I just that was just a that
was just me confiding in him, right, my. You know, he's
been my coach since day one. He's been my mentor since day one.
Anything when it comes to football, I go to both him and my mother.
They've been you know, my they've been by my side through high school,
through university as well as my you know, NFL career, and so
this is just something where I knew that I was definitely going to confide in
him, and he knew that this is just a step in my journey that
I wanted to take to be able to continue with my playing career. He
knows that I have he knows that I have so much left in the tank,
and he's yeah, I know, he's thrilled from me. He's excited
for me to be able to you know, come into the league that he
himself was able to you know, dominate and make a name for himself.
I want to, you know, I want to do him proud. And
and you've got the necklace there with your dad's old number number seventy seven,
Rick, and I remember that from his days. So yes, Hamilton Tiger
Cats when he was terrorizing the BC Lions back of the day. Christian,
Hey, you're you're looking lean, you're looking trim. And there's adjustments that
every player has to make when they go from the NFL to the CFL.
You know, the twenty second clock, there's that one year and off the
ball. What adjustments do you feel you have to make? Oh? So
it was told to me by you know, our you know CoA general manager,
Ryan mcgrig maiden. Like, I've had great talks with him these past
weeks, and that was actually one of the things he told me was,
Hey, remember passing league twenty second clock. We need you to get your
conditioning right, We need we need you to be able to get right.
Hey, as soon as that ball is thrown deep, you already know you're
gonna have to get lined up and get ready to go again. But again,
those are just those are aspects of the game of the CFL game that
I've known forever. You know, it's a it is a passing league,
it is a bigger field a lot. You know, it's very explosive on
you know, on both sides of the ball. So this is just something
that I know there are going to be adjustments come training camp, and I
know that I'm not going to be ignorant to that fact. But I know
from the perspective of being a Canadian who's grown up watching this team, watching
this game, I know the I know the differences, I know the rule.
I know there are going to be real changes and it's just going to
take a little bit of an of an adjustment. But yeah, no,
that twenty As soon as he said that, you know, a twenty second
play clock, you got the ready to go. No, I took that.
I took that to heart. Like my last season with the Chargers,
I was hovering around three hundred and ten pounds three fifteen you know, throughout
the seat. You know, really the past two seed, the past three
years with the Chargers, I was like anywhere between my weight has been weird.
I'm able to over my career, I'm be able to fluctuate everything three
h five to three fifteen. I heck, I've been three thirty in the
past. I will never be that ever again in my life. However,
now I am to eighty, so I am fast. I'm feeling explosive,
and I know that's I'm gonna get said at the end of the day.
I know that's what is required of the defensive players in the CFL. You
said you sound excited. What was the NFL experience like for you? Christian?
We hear about the grind of the NFL. I mean, you're playing
at the pinnacle, at the top of the heap, You're in the National
Football League, but it is a business. What was that experience like for
you? Blessing? At the end of the day, it was a blessing.
It was a dream come true to be able to you know, come
from where I come from, to go to the to go the route that
I went through with university, going to Rice, to be drafted to you
know, play nine years. You know, at the end of the day,
I don't take anything for granted. It's been a blessing. It's been,
but it's also been eye opening due to as you said, it is
you do see the business side of things play out. I've you know,
seen that firsthand. It's something that a lot of people are blind to when
they come into when they come into league because they everybody, every it's everybody
is victim to it. They all say, oh, it's it's not gonna
be me. It's not gonna I'm not gonna be those guys. But it's
you know, at the end of the day, it happens the best.
It happens to everybody, you know, at the top of the rosters to
the bottom of the roster. It's it's something that unfortunately a lot of guys
have to go through the business side of things. But you can't take personal.
You have to be able to go through these battles, go through the
hills, go through the valleys of you know, of life of the football,
of that football world. And I just I know that that the mental
strengths that I've gained from it, the mental toughness that I've been able to
build from, you know, being able to you know, play that long
and endure that long, you know, I know that is what I'm going
to bring to the BC lines. And as I said earlier today, like
I am my my My tank is not empty. Like I am. As
I said, I just turned thirty, I am. I am as as
motivated as ever. I'm as uh physical, physical as ever, I am
as aggressive as ever. I am as motive, motivated and hungry as ever
because I know at the end of the day, I know what I'm trying
to do. My and my goal right now is as a b C line
is to win a great Cup. So that's what I want to do and
do whatever it takes to help this team. You know, it's goal and
the great Cups at BC place this year. Christen, I'll say it again.
We can hear the excitement, we can see the excitement that you have
right now. This is going to be fun. Thanks so much for joining
us. This has been great. Thank you both so much. Appreciate it.
Christian Covington of the BC Lions, thirty years old. Eight seasons in
the National Football League, nine if you count last season when he had some
injury issues. They lost Matthew Bets, right, Donnie, Yeah, this
is going to help e some of the Matthew Bets departure. But there is
still game left in Christian Covington. This guy's coming here and this is just
not a well, let's sign the local guy. No, this is a
really good signing and I expect him to be an impact player some business.
And then people have tweeted out the Cannucks lines in Nashville. All right,
past Time Sports celebrating thirty years of being BC's number one Carden member. Billy
a shop. Check out the spring sale happening at all for Past Time Sports
locations online at pastime sports dot Ca over five hundred items, mark down online

up to date on the latest card dropping signings and more Pastime Sports dots or
there's social channels. Something special in front of the laptop today, Yeah,
Vancouver. One of Vancouver's favorite players is the card of the day Brad Marshat
as she and the Bruins look to eliminate the Leafs tonight back in Toronto and
the box of cards, the OPG twenty four cards, and we should mention
no, Austin Matthews again for the Leafs. The last game it was believed
that had an illness and now we're hearing and Elliott Friedman is one of the
people reporting this, it goes beyond that illness and some sort of injury as
well. He's obviously banged up Donnie, and that's a huge loss for Room.
But they won the last game without them, and this time they're at
home tonight. I believe on the year they're two and oh without the Leaves
without Matthew. Yeah, including that game. The other night lines in Nashville.
There drants with the tweet. No changes to the Canucks lineup, as
they've shown it in drills at practice here, So Suitor Miller Besser, even
though he's mentioned he's missing an r on Besser, he's too fast. He's
got to concentrate Suter Miller Besser, top line, Homelander, Petterson, mchaf,
second line, PDG Blue Girt, Lafferty is your third line, Joshua
Lindholm Garland technically your fourth line. Amon is the extra and your d pairs
the same as well. Hughes Heronic Sussy, Meyers, Zadoroff, Cole Friedman,
Juwison your extras and of course if you have missed it, no Pud
Coleson mentioned here because facility's back with Abbotsford. They lost last night in Game
one to abbots to Ontario Vitario range two to one. And if you missed
it earlier as well, we should show what JT. Miller's been up to
in practice unless you want to talk about this, well, did you mention
the goaltender? Sorry, I know we didn't mention the goaltenders said, and
there's no confirmation yet. It looks like is going to start. Yes,
that's what it looks like. And if you miss missed it before, this
is what JT Miller was wearing at the start of practice. He ended up
taking it off and changing over to just a regularly that's a better shot there
that a Sea Lows dress shirt see Love's dress shirt is apparently what JT was
having fun with that thing. Yeah, so JT decided to start practice wearing
this, and I'm sure his scrum after practice will be entertaining talking about what
he was up to with this dress shirt for the first part of practice today.
And Nash Lows needs some help. Yeah, I'm not, it's everyone's
style. Maybe maybe he's more of a flashyr guy with his clothing. I'm
not. I'm bland, but you get a lot of compliments in your rock
and roll t shirts. Yeah, my rock and Roll t shirts what the
kids call rock and roll DTMZ. Next, Donnie Dull had the team on

As we delve into the world of sports and entertainment, I guess you
could call this entertainment. Did you see this guy? And apparently he has
a history of this and I wasn't made aware of it, or a lot
of people weren't made aware of it until yesterday. It's the playoffs. Focus
on the Dallas Stars in their home games. The gentleman's name is Nick Marach
or moroach Okay. I guess he's a season ticket holder in behind the glass
at Dallas Stars home games, I think the opposition glass for two periods and
there he was front and center. Last night we visuals here banging on the
glass, holding signs, wearing you know, a jacket and a shirt that
you know allows everybody to notice him. Did you see this banging on the
glass. It's like, guy, we're not here to see you like.
It's just doing anything he can for attention. You look at his Twitter account.
It's all about him getting attention. You know what he's getting it.
That's the world we live in today. That's that's all you have to do
is dressed like that, hold up a sign and bang on the glass.
Now, I have enough problem with the glass bangers at games. I don't
get it. There's a battle along the boards and somebody usually on a date,
and he's trying to impress his date. I don't know. Banging on
the glass. You see it a lot, but this guy takes it as
a step further. But he's getting all sorts of attention. I'm sure an
endorsement deal is just around the corner. He's a loon tune well, he's
also he's also in the crosshairs of Paul and he he loves that he is.
By the way too. His bio includes the fact ye Bissonet is taking
runs at I mean and so him and Misson is a guy who never tries
to get attended him and go back and forth with all the stars games and
I just like, I mean, we're we're part of the problem because we're
furthering his cause. I was just gonna say, what are we doing here?
But it's like, man like, if you're around this, dude,
like, that's the other thing I pay as much as you You're not the
show. Yes, exactly. I understand being excited, but you know,
if I'm excited at a game, I'm excited because of what's happening on the
ice right, not because of what I'm doing in the stands right or what
someone else is doing in the stand And you nail that he's got a Twitter
account. We live in the Twitter world where videos and pictures are you know,
everywhere. He's furthering, he's trying to get likes, and he's probably
you know, doing pretty well on the on the Twitter account. That's that's
life. Now. Would anybody be surprised if made the Stanley Cup Final.
I know there's a long way to go. Colorado's well, they have to
get rid of Vegas first, But Colorado would be up next to a tough
road. But I don't think anybody would be shocked. I might see a
lot of old Nick there, yep. And you can just imagine, you
know, what he's going to be up to at that point, and how
much more attention he's gonna get. And you know what else, Let's get
off this story because we're giving him to sixty one hundred followers on Twitter at
sixty sixty one hundred. That's all that's going up. That's going up.
That's not bad, it's it's gonna go up. And he's got a website
and everything, and the two worst words in the history of the English language
are in his bio content creator. Yeah, all right, birthdays May second.
We've got seven birthdays. The line is set at six. Did you
have something else you can know? I'm just waiting for you. The line
is set at six by Big Bad Connie's Homemade Peach Pies and Casino in Dixon,

Colts punter out of West Bay. You're cheating, there's no question. But
what punter are you going to reference on this show? Well, there's an
idiot kicker exactly Clippers thirty four year old forward slash guard out of Fresno State.

that was That's not a bad clue. That's good. That's huh.
That's good. That's good. I'm really proud of that one. That's good.
That's good. It's my life, you know. Speaking to documentaries,
I've watched the first bit of Saving Sakk. It's pretty good. It's not
that well known as story in the National League. I remember the story.
It was a big deal for a short period of time, but a lot
of money involved. The Rangers were remember Rangers were trying to buy everybody back
then, and including Joe Sakk. It's pretty good. It's pretty good.

Had to file a missing person's report on Elliots Patterson. Hopefully they find him
soon so he can show up for game six. That's Ryan and Victoria or
it could have been from either one of YouTube. Well you're not notice what
are you're not noticing? There? I told you he's got to be better.
There's no questions. So the three of us then, well mostly YouTube.
There was a and Ryan refuses to run this for some reason, but
there was an example of him not getting to a puck. Uh. I
think Hoglander gives him an area past two defenders are there, he could have
split between his and he kind of hesitated. I think he's hurt. You
sat to find out about it. You said it, and the question is
why didn't Why wasn't he sitting out late in the regular seceason? Greats goes
back to the regular season. Another great question? Is it just me?
Dwight Jukebox Hero love It, Foreigner rocks, zz Top and Toop Snake Boogie
also rocks. And I'm reading that because Ryan criticized my choice of Foreigner.
Beautiful songs. Oh as we went to break on DTMZ there jukebox hero is
an anthem, Ryan, have it? You know, go home tonight fine,
turned down the lights and listen to it just a little. I don't
know why you have to anthem for me. I don't know. It's just
a little. It's nineteen eighties music, Ryan, what do you want to
be good? It's fine, It's fine. Toop snake boogie, good tune,
Oh legs Zeezy topped legs was good song? Best song? What do
you got? Is it just me? But I'm gonna solve the Canucks right
side defense issues. Trade Heronic signed Christanna, get him at a cheaper price
and less term. Tanef could help bring Willander along in the future. Don
De from Namo, It's a very good du submission by Don De. He
really is because he puts in the Wellander connection. And and who was here
when Quinn Hughes got here and played a big role. S's christannev Don Yeah.
And if tannef can do the same what I was thinking, I was
thinking right handers? Yeah? No, But what I what what Donde saying,
which is great? Is your mentor a mentor? And and Quinn Hughes
absolutely loves Chris Hanna for that reason on and off, on and off the
ice, the great Friends. Ronic can't be a mentor to Lander, not
like Chris Hand. No, is it just me from Surrey? Ryan?
Maybe you have this tweet from Thomas from Surrey, Ryan? Is it just
me? Thomas Drants misses the R on Besser, but nails the accent of
leedy Colin and applet in Hoglander that epitomizes Grants. Did he mess up by
putting he missed? He missed the R because Thomas would mention to us when
we screw up. So I feel comfortable to this, No R on Besser.
He pasted the Hooglander from somewhere else. You could tell because he's not
putting the two dots in there. There's no way. Eh No, No,
that's pasted. Eh uh No, oh yes he is. And he's
got the what's what's above the A in the first the first A? And
I'm on there, same thing that's pasted. Because if whether it's pasted or
not, when you google him on and Hoglander, you get that. You
you could do you know this, dude, because I have, so you
get Besser without an R too. I'm telling you right now. Could he
not have just put Hoglander in without the two dots. Yes, he could
have. He pasted at Don. I'm having some fun with a friend of
ourselves. I'll tell you something. How does he forget the r don?
I have no idea what point you're making, but go ahead. I want
to get this one. Is it just me? Brendan Dillon's career started in
junior being Hope with the Icebreakers. I was living there at the time.
It would go to the games regular Sea lasted two seasons. Let me finish
Andy Mallett in New s I want to tell the quick story of Brendan Dillon
was playing. Uh, he just did midget a three on all these parents
Bloomer, yeah, late bloom all these parents that think your kid's got to
be a stud. At fourteen, Brendan Dillon was playing a three midget in
Surrey Hope ice Breakers Junior b then went to Seattle, then had twenty two
teams after him as a nineteen year old out of Seattle. Loved that guy,
Brendan Dillon. And he's gonna be a UFA. You're saying he's coming
to Vancouver, DoD. I didn't say he's coming to Vancouver, but I'm
saying the Canucks should look into him. Okay, break and then we'll wrap
up the show and the poll question next. Donnie Dillon the team on check.
