4
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:25.760
TV where Don Taylor cucumber is the
worst vegetable out there, no lasting power,

5
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:29.359
no staying power. And Rick Dully
Wall forty five minutes in front of

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:35.079

11
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:54.119
lovely? Nice day out there?
Before we get into what's happening in the

12
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:59.119
National Hockey League, a couple of
things. First of all, Whitecaps lose

13
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.159
last night in Dallas, two ones. The two straight losses for the white

14
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:07.760
Caps, who had gone unbeaten in
eight straight MLS matches before that. They

15
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:12.760
host Seattle Big Game Saturday at BC
Place. Also, you wanted to talk

16
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:18.920
about the BCHL and the powerhouse been
ticked in vs. They wrapped it up

17
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.560
last night. Donny pent Tickton swept
al Bernie Valley last night to win the

18
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:27.640
BC Hockey League title, second straight
year, fourth title in the last seven

19
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.480
years. Look at these kids.
You won't find anything better on TV today.

20
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:37.400
Look at this fourteenth franchise championship,
Donnie last night the VS. One

21
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:42.319
four one fifty three oh and one
in the regular season, sixteen one of

22
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:47.920
the playoffs. Just a dominant,
dominant team. So they lost five games

23
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:52.000
all year oh year, Yeah,
Donnie all year long. And Scott Niedermayer's

24
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:56.359
kid, Joe Newendike's kid, Mike
Richter's kid all played on this team at

25
00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:00.879
a channel I ch had a chance
to watch him earlier this year. Just

26
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:07.240
a really good team. Where'd you
watch them in West coloona And beautiful uniforms,

27
00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:10.599
by the way to take on the
Leafs unions, beautiful blue, beautiful

28
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.879
blue. Okay. Also we should
mention that this is going to hurt a

29
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:22.800
bit Canuck fans. Seattle wins four
two in the Western Hockey League Final down

30
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:27.960
in Kent, Washington, beating Winnipeg. So they're up three one, Dylan

31
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:32.439
Gunther gets the winning goal. He
has sixteen goals in the Western Hockey League

32
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:37.319
playoffs and they can wrap it up
on Friday. Of course, Gunther,

33
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.879
we saw what he did for a
team Canada at the World Juniors. You

34
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.520
know, the player a lot of
people feel would have been available had the

35
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:47.159
Canucks not made a certain trade.
Arizona used the first run pick they got

36
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:52.080
from the Canucks in the oil trade
to take Gunther. We don't know if

37
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.680
the Canucks would have taken Gunther,
but what it tells you is the quality

38
00:02:54.719 --> 00:03:00.000
of the player available at nine.
Here you go, thank you. Unbelievable

39
00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:04.800
And you know, Western Hockey League
success does a necessarily meaning NHL played in

40
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.360
the nh But it hurts a bit
for connection, of course, it hurts

41
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:15.919
among other things NHL. All right, Panthers at Carolina Game one, Eastern

42
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:23.479
Conference Final tonight in Carolina, Dallas
at Vegas game one on Friday. Before

43
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:28.080
we get into the meat of this, I want to show some footage from

44
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.800
yesterday, guys, if you don't
mind. Rod Brenda Moore, head coach

45
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:37.280
of the Carolina Hurricanes, arguably the
best coach in hockey right now. This

46
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:42.159
is the day before his team plays
in the National Hockey League Eastern Conference Final,

47
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:46.639
opening up the Final four. Here
he is yesterday at P and C

48
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:50.080
Arena. What's without the footage here? It's all stretched out here? What's

49
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:54.240
going on? Rod? Looks like
he's a little wider here, looks like

50
00:03:54.360 --> 00:04:00.000
those we set this up beforehand.
I thought it was okay, this looks

51
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.520
like something out of the House of
Mirrors. Yeah, the p and right

52
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:08.840
there you yeah, there you go. Yeah, the wrong death there.

53
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.680
It scared me for a second.
I thought we had the wrong footage.

54
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.199
But there he is on the ice
with his kids and Max Patcherretti's kid,

55
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:23.240
you know, doing a little coaching, relaxing. So my point here is

56
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:28.600
that is this not proof how much? And I know everybody who plays hockey

57
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.959
loves hockey to some extent, but
this just shows you how much this guy,

58
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:38.079
who's considered again by many to be
the best coach going, this shows

59
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:41.720
you how much he loves hockey,
loves hockey. I mean, he talked

60
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:44.120
about coaching minor hockey the other day
and he said, you know what,

61
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.000
guys, it's not much different than
the NHL. Let's just go out there

62
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:50.000
teach the kids. Look at this
though. I mean, the biggest game

63
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:54.480
of the year is coming up against
Florida today, this is yesterday, and

64
00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:58.279
he's out with a bunch of the
kids. Believable. Yeah yeah, again

65
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:02.160
shows you his love for the game. Campbell, Rivers, Rod Brenda Moore.

66
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:05.000
So good. All right, let's
get rich to the poll question.

67
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:12.000
It's the Panthers at Carolina tonight again
Dallas at Vegas on Friday. Betty nine

68
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:16.240
dot net poll question, Ryan and
I and you are arguing about this question

69
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:21.720
earlier bet ninety nine dot net poll
question. Every game begins at betty nine

70
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:26.160
dot net. Rick, all right, our bet ninety nine dot net poll

71
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.000
question, how would you describe your
interest level in the NHL Conference Finals?

72
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:35.519
Oh? Boy? Seventy seven percent
say low. That's not good. That's

73
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:41.720
not good at all? Yourself,
it's low? Why what do you mean?

74
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:45.720
Don I mean the team's left don't
do anything for me, especially the

75
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.920
Eastern Final the Western Final. I
have a bit more uh investment in I

76
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:53.079
just I think they're better teams.
But these guys, I'm not there,

77
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:55.759
and the weather's playing a factor too. Done. I'm not gonna lie.

78
00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:59.879
But hold on a second. Like
people talk about the weather being a factor.

79
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:03.720
It is for me when I look
back at the Canucks runs. One

80
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:08.360
of the great things about those runs
is that you often watch the games when

81
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:13.680
the weather is nice outside. It
just when when the weather is nice outside

82
00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:16.160
and your team still that's a good
that's a good combination. I don't think

83
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:19.439
it's a big deal. I'm used
to that now. The other thing,

84
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:24.040
are you a hockey found or not? Yeah? These are four yeah,

85
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:27.399
yeah, so you should be interesting. Yeah. These two teams don't do

86
00:06:27.439 --> 00:06:30.160
anything for me. If it was
Boston in Toronto, yeah, I'm in

87
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:32.759
there. I'm in there. You
better believe I'm in there. You can't

88
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:35.680
change with the times at all.
I need a Boston, I need a

89
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.519
Toronto. I need one of those
teams in the Eastern Conference. Fire.

90
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:44.720
You don't want to see what brod
Brenda more people don't, you know,

91
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.959
want to watch a coaches a coach. But I'm interested seeing Brent Burns.

92
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:53.240
I think he's had a great season. Carolina doing what they're doing with all

93
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:57.319
those injured stars of theirs, that's
really really impressive. Maybe the Canucks could

94
00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:00.519
learn a thing or two off the
Matthew could Chuck Broscue, what he's up

95
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:05.639
to on the other side of Vegas
with with Jack Keel the Stars. Hay

96
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:09.279
Skin is one of the best players
in the National Hockey League, even with

97
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:15.279
a cheek that's inflated five hundred times
its size thirty two minutes last game for

98
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.439
higher So are you interested or it
sounds like series? I'm moor into that

99
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.639
group bands. I'm a hockey fan. Of course I'm interested. My interest

100
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:27.000
level is high. Ryan, I
know you feel diff well. This is

101
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:30.680
the same person that wasn't so interested
in the second round of the playoffs.

102
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.279
I don't remember myself. You said
that. I'll dig up the tape.

103
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:35.800
I'll get my best people on it. By the way, this whole thing.

104
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:39.040
First of all, Ricky is bang
on about the weather. It does

105
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:45.519
matter. It's the Canucks aren't involved, so I don't care going on team

106
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:47.680
is not involved. No, Donny, we sit through eight months a year

107
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.680
of rain and now it's a nice
stretch of hold on a sets factor.

108
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:56.319
Good point. You guys, especially
you Ryan, Ye go on and on

109
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.560
about how much you hate the heat. So what's the big deal about going

110
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:03.759
inside and watching a hockey The hate
the heat, but I'm just not driven

111
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:07.199
to watch hockey when the weather is
like this, especially Saturdays and Sundays four

112
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.639
o'clove. Are you going to sit
there and say it's Saturday, it's beautiful

113
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:16.480
outside, and you're gonna say,
oh, it's four o'clock. Give me

114
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:20.600
up. This is just in the
season doesn't end in March or April anymore.

115
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:22.480
When when the weather gets better,
that to me is a sign of

116
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:28.600
some important hockey around coming around,
and it reminds me of ninety four and

117
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:31.120
twenty eleven. I don't have a
problem with it at all. I've i

118
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:37.879
unlike you too. I've adjusted.
It's not I'm open minded about it.

119
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.200
It's not just you too. When
we're almost at four hundred votes. If

120
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:45.039
Taylor ever retweets this pole question again, I did. I didn't. I

121
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:48.440
have his kidding. Seventy seven percent
of the people are saying low. It's

122
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.000
not just Rick and I. The
majority of people are saying Loo and Nord.

123
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:52.440
I think the other thing comes into
play here that I do think so.

124
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:56.519
I think it's how bad turn in
your passport? How bad hockey has

125
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:00.519
been for the Vancouver Conoxy in this
market. Also another another fact, like

126
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:05.720
how disconnecting fact that you are sad
is how much this market right now revolves

127
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:09.720
around a trade deadline, a draft, free agency, and that's it.

128
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:13.200
They don't care about anything on the
ice because there hasn't been anything on the

129
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:18.840
hockey or not. I appreciate solid, stolidly playoff hockey. I don't mind

130
00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:22.440
that. I will give you this
though, but it's not just hockey.

131
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.399
It's the NFL, uh, the
NBA. Maybe not baseball so much because

132
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:31.440
the draft isn't as big a deal, but the off ice news no matter

133
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:33.879
how well your team is playing,
you know, if it's playing great hockey,

134
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.559
poor hockey, the off ice,
use the draft, free agency.

135
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:39.840
That's coming up, controversies, Yeah, that's coming up in June. I'm

136
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:46.840
I'm saying that the sports has evolved
to the point where off ice news is

137
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.559
almost that's to more entertaining than what's
going on, not just on the ice,

138
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:52.600
but on the plane. And that's
how I think a lot of that's

139
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:56.840
seventy seven percent feel in the pole
question today, like they would be fine

140
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:01.480
to just breeze break past this conference
final on Stanley Cup final to get to

141
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.320
the off season. And I think
the same thing's happening in Toronto. How

142
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.279
fast did that conversation change from anything
the Leafs did this year and the first

143
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:11.960
round win to everything happening in the
off season. It was like that.

144
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:16.000
It was instant. They're still doing
a post game as they're speak and the

145
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.080
other thing that comes into play,
and you're not gonna want to hear this.

146
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:24.960
The NBA the conference finals blow away
the NHL conference They do they do?

147
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.000
How do you know they haven't played
yet? Way, what do you

148
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:31.679
mean there's been two there's been NHL
Conference finals yet. I can, for

149
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:35.000
one, the star power on papers
there that the NHL does not have.

150
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.399
And that's the NBA is n could
do. But it sorry right, the

151
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.440
NBA is lucked out that way that
that's been the final four. He make

152
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.440
a good point about it. It
rains for a make good. It makes

153
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:48.480
a good point. It rains for
eight months of the city. And finally

154
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.320
you want to golf. You want
to go to the lake, Donnie,

155
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:54.200
You want to sit on your deck
with a nice cool, you know,

156
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.279
drink. We don't want to wash
the car. Wash the car. You

157
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.399
can wash the car while the water
restricts don't get me in trouble. I

158
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:05.519
did wash it yesterday. Anyways,
there's a ton of stuff to do yourself

159
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:09.240
for the car. After eight months
of reign in the city, you take

160
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.120
an advantage of the sun. So
I thought you were talking about the point

161
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:15.120
he made about the NBA. No, I don't care about the NBA.

162
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:20.000
Bobby and Vancouver Good morning, guys, all agree one with Donnie Weather a

163
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:22.360
factor. Please. It's the best
four teams left and if you're a hockey

164
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.039
fan, you will be tuning in. Just because the cities aren't big and

165
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:30.679
flat flashy doesn't factor into how good
the teams are. People are talking like

166
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.720
it's gonna be boring. These series
will be great. We'll see if that's

167
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:35.960
true. But yeah, well,
how do you compare them at this point

168
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.440
when they haven't played yet? You
know, I can't they go lebronze,

169
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.159
They're great whatever. Diving the other
night, I guess you like Jimmy Butler

170
00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:48.720
has been unbelievable. Thirty five points
they went game one, Yola, Denver,

171
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.000
come on, there's no doubt about
it. If hockey hasn't started yet.

172
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.279
And I don't say blah though about
the markets like Dallas for every reason,

173
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:00.639
I know there's talent there. Dallas
is blah in my opinion. Right,

174
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:03.879
let me go back to last year. Not a hockey fan, Donny

175
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:07.919
Rangers and Lightning. I was into
that last year Rangers jumped out to nothing.

176
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:13.720
Seriously, Madison Square, I love
watching games open different. Doesn't have

177
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.200
to be the Bruins, the Canocks, the League Connocks doesn't count. It

178
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.759
doesn't have to be these traditional hockey
It makes a difference, makes a difference

179
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.840
not to me, it does to
me. This is Bettman's dream because he

180
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:31.440
hammers the fact the NHL has parody
like no other league. And here you

181
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.840
go, well, these four teams
that proves it again. Open up your

182
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.879
mind's a bit here. And I
think when you when you talk about these

183
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:43.000
non traditional hockey markets and you see
uh players, young players who are from

184
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.840
those non traditional hockey markets making their
range of the National Hockey League, Austin

185
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.039
Matthews being one example, t J. Thompson another, as I'm working in

186
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:54.840
Arizona. Okay, well no,
but my my my point is hockey is

187
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:58.399
better because the markets have been opened
up. You know, there are more

188
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:03.559
people playing hockey in these non traditional
markets. It makes the product better.

189
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.879
You have to think long term.
Okay, I'm gonna find you. I

190
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.399
don't get me wrong. I love
the NBA playoffs, but anything American.

191
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:22.440
You guys love, right, and
watch your NBA playoffs and turning your passport

192
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:26.320
time I'm going Saturday. Yeah,
there you go, perfect, perfect.

193
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:30.000
Maybe. Now do you agree with
us though, that this season goes on

194
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.519
way too long. People have been
saying that for a long time, and

195
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.519
there's validity to it. It's you're
beating a dead horse. It's not going

196
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:39.320
to too much revenue with an eighty
two game schedule. It's not gonna.

197
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.879
It's not gonna change. Keep in
mind that not that long ago there was

198
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.320
an eighty four game schedule. That's
right. Never I don't but yeah,

199
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.600
yeah, I don't get that.
The neutral site games, Yeah, I

200
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:58.600
don't understand why. I'm I'm with
anybody who wants to make that argument.

201
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.000
I'm with them. The seasons,
not just the NHL, but the NBA

202
00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:05.320
certainly makes baseball, and the importance
of each game during the regular season is

203
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:09.799
nil and are almost almost nil.
So I all agree with you there,

204
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.919
that's it's never gonna. It's one
of the factors as to why the NFL

205
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.080
is so massive. Yeah, every
game is so important, right, and

206
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.159
there's a build up to exact game
exactly. But what are you gonna do?

207
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.919
What if hockey decided, you know, you went back in time.

208
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:26.799
Here's a couple of things that I
think would happened. Go ahead, well

209
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.759
there's one. I know you're gonna
say, the four on four. I

210
00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.759
think hockey would be a four and
four game if the if you went back

211
00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:39.639
on time, maybe even three on
three. What about like what about games

212
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:46.120
being played in larger venues where you
create more revenue and a shortest schedule,

213
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:50.279
shortt schedule, right? I don't
think so, only because and I disagree

214
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:52.039
with it, but you hear.
But the Americans talking about it just said

215
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:56.919
you prefer the NFL schedule short of
schedule. Every game is more important.

216
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:01.960
But you're gonna say, like,
how's the how's the environment when you're watching

217
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:07.440
a hockey game from row thirty?
But yes, there's fewer games, so

218
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:11.399
each game is more special, like
like the National Football League that happened.

219
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:16.120
I'm just saying, I wonder if
you know you could jump into the time

220
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:18.200
tunnel in a way you go,
Well, wasn't sure you're gonna build a

221
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:26.039
new stadium or something. Remember ye
the mayor said I'm building a former mayor.

222
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:30.679
Yeah. Anyways, Doug McKell Yeah, Doug mckellecs foot. We know

223
00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.080
the foot. We're gonna update on
that. Um okay, A lot going

224
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.840
on in the show. Yeah,
we have to bring I want to get

225
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:43.320
if we have time, run what
Ken Holland had to say yesterday at his

226
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.559
press conference. He's going to come
back for the final year of contract.

227
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.799
Really passionate and just if I may
say so, devastated. He used the

228
00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:54.320
word seven hundred times of this press
conference. There's an element of humor to

229
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.679
it, so I want to run
that as well. We're gonna have a

230
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.399
bubble helmet conversation at all. I've
been trying to get this in Campbell.

231
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.960
I've been trying to get this in
for a long time. Maybe we'll save

232
00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:10.960
it for next week or the week
after. There's a lot going on.

233
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.600
Ed Jovanovski is going to join us
in the next hour. Again a DTMZ

234
00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:17.000
Is it just me? But Ed
Jeovanowski is going to join us in the

235
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:21.559
next hour. He's hanging out down
in Florida. He's an analyst for the

236
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:25.879
Panthers and they of course play a
game one against Carolina. Former Canuck,

237
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.600
former Coyote's gotten some things to say
about Arizona, the Arizona situation. John

238
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.159
Shannon joins us just after eleven o'clock. Big Ride, the Twitter guy coming

you? I'm good boys? How
you doing good? Good? Just before

250
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:34.519
um we talk about SFU and the
NHL and all that farand I'm gonna ask

251
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:37.599
you to get out your crystal ball. Who do you think is gonna win?

252
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:41.599
The Great Cup this year. Stop
it, stop it for the third

253
00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:45.720
week in a row. Are you
gonna Are you gonna ask you about Verdon

254
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:49.559
Adams too? And make sure hey
why not Nathan Lurk start with Nathan Rourke.

255
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.680
Yeah, I'm looking forward to go
to Jacksonville to watch him at training

256
00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:56.680
camp. That'll be fine. Oh
really when you go, you're you're going

257
00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:00.519
to see him. Yeah, either
either training camp or he Camp one or

258
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:02.839
two. We just haven't decided to
which one, but yeah, we'll be

259
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:04.519
there. I would imagine probably the
first few days of training camp at the

260
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:11.359
end of July. So looking forward
to that. Realistic expectations for him in

261
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:15.240
Jacksonville behind Trevor Lawrence. I know
we've asked you that before, but yeah,

262
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.759
it's been a while. We've let
that, we've let that breathe a

263
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:21.920
little bit, right, Yes,
so you know that. I know he's

264
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:23.480
made a good impression down there from
people I've talked to. But at the

265
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:26.599
end of the day, they did
bring back CJ. A. Bethorton,

266
00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:30.400
So he's gonna be He's gonna have
his work cut out for him to compete

267
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.720
for the backup job, right,
and so will he be able to get

268
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:34.960
to a point where he can be
on the roster for some games this year.

269
00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:40.640
We'll see, but I think that's
the goal for him, and certainly

270
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:42.519
he's he's done his part, but
it's gonna be tough for me. I

271
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:47.880
want to see what he looks like
in preseason and in their combined practices because

272
00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:51.599
in preseason you're going to see very
little of Trevor Lawrence and Nathan work is

273
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:55.039
going to get a big, big
body of work. So I think just

274
00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:57.000
seeing how he performs, and I
have no reason to believe he's not going

275
00:18:57.079 --> 00:19:00.680
to perform at a high level.
Right now, he's about to get married,

276
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:03.160
and then he's going to be back
here in Vancouver for a little bit

277
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.480
to work with Rob Williams and see
his family and get some training done before

278
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:08.440
getting back down to Jackson Goal.
So we will see him here a little

279
00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:12.559
bit locally, But you know,
for me, the preseason is everything because

280
00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:15.440
that's when he's going to get a
chance to make a real big impression.

281
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:19.160
Meanwhile, the Lions training camp going
on in cam Loops, how would you

282
00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:25.200
describe a Rick Campbell training camp?
Well, I think you know, Rick

283
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:26.880
has evolved as a head coach over
the years. Right, he was you

284
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:32.279
know, very very no nonsense when
he was in Ottawa and earlier when he

285
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:33.960
was the first to head coach.
But now I'm not going to say he's

286
00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:37.559
loosey goosey or you know, the
second coming of Davon Claybrooks or anything like

287
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:40.920
that. I think he's still got
some of that in him. But then

288
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.400
when you get to a point where
you've established yourself and you feel really good

289
00:19:44.440 --> 00:19:47.319
in your own skin, I think
you allow your personality to shine a bit.

290
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:48.599
So he's tried to make it fun
at the same time. You know,

291
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.160
you saw the Javan Ktoy moment with
the field goal where if he makes

292
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:55.359
it, you know, this group
does twenty points hips. If not,

293
00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:56.480
this group does it. There's a
bit of that, right, And I

294
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.559
think he's found himself becoming more adaptable
like all of these as it had coming

295
00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:03.720
out of COVID, and it had
some some smaller issues as it relates to

296
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:07.000
air quality, so they were able
to get you know, they got inside

297
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:10.119
yesterday, you know, So there's
all that kind of stuff. But um,

298
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:11.400
you know, I think he knows
who his team is now, right,

299
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.079
And you went through a tough time
two years ago where you just had

300
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:18.640
so many rookies that we're going to
have to earn spots, and now they

301
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:22.480
can pick and choose right So I
think he's a little bit more discerning right

302
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:25.240
now and has a pretty good sense
of where the battles are going to be

303
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:27.279
won. And last year far in
the last few weeks, a lot of

304
00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:32.480
negativity about SFU and the football program. But can I say that it sounded

305
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:36.920
like some at least way more positive
in the in the in the past week.

306
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:40.559
Are we going to get someday that
football program up and running again.

307
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:44.599
Yeah, I think we are,
and it has been more positive, primarily

308
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:48.279
because we finally finally have a legitimate
process. And I touched on this where

309
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:52.799
we talked last Thursday that we've got
the group with Richard McLaren and Bob Copeland

310
00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:59.000
leading the way on this special advisor
consulting process. And I had a chance

311
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:02.960
to meet with Bob opening who I
knew from before he was a former athletic

312
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:07.440
director at Waterloo and we've spoken together
at some similar events, and I think

313
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:11.079
there's a real legitimacy and a real
earnestness to look at a pathway forward to

314
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:12.720
twenty twenty four and I think the
university is open to that, and I

315
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:18.359
think that's great. However, I
think there needs to be something in twenty

316
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:19.839
twenty three. I think that matters
to this program, and it matters to

317
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:23.960
these kids because you know, we've
kind of if there is going to be

318
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:29.039
a twenty twenty four, there was
really never a reason to cancel twenty twenty

319
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:30.799
three. So there's a lot of
these kids that are still in limbo right

320
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:33.759
now, and there's a lot of
uncertainty around their situations. They don't have

321
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:37.839
legitimate options to transfer to. Some
of them are upperclassmen, and if you

322
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.279
transfer, the school that takes you
in is only going to accept a certain

323
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:44.000
amount of your credits, and you
know you don't want to if you're close

324
00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:47.039
to graduation. You don't want to
be starting all over again. So not

325
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:49.000
all over, but you don't want
to take a year back right just for

326
00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:52.960
football. That doesn't make sense for
you know, guys that aren't going to

327
00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:56.119
make millions of dollars playing this sport. So I think there has to be

328
00:21:56.200 --> 00:21:59.759
a way for them to get some
exhibition games this year, And as much

329
00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:02.480
as anything else, I think the
university needs to send an alive branch to

330
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:07.160
these players because while the special Advisor
was was good in terms of the broader

331
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:11.480
football community and the alumni and stakeholders
and you know, people like Kamar Doman,

332
00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:15.519
for the players themselves, they need
to know that this is getting back

333
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:18.039
on the rails. And for you
know, I think they should open their

334
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:22.000
locker room. I think they should
allow these kids access to training logs and

335
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:27.200
training programs from the strength of conditioning
staff because in court the university said their

336
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:30.559
varsity athletes still and get the benefits
of that, but they've been denied some

337
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.400
of those things, right, So
if they could just again extend in all

338
00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:37.680
of branch and make these kids feel
a little good about the process, because

339
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:42.559
I know that they did meet with
with the advisor, and generally the feedback

340
00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:47.480
was, you know, just not
enough urgency, a little bit disappointing,

341
00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:49.880
and maybe too little too late,
just as far as certain selected kids are

342
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:55.119
concerned, not bigger picture for the
program. So I'm really hopeful the university

343
00:22:55.200 --> 00:23:00.160
can see the reasoning and big picture. For every kid you lose right now

344
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:03.559
that's going to transfer, it makes
twenty twenty four that much harder. So

345
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:07.920
give us a chance to have some
competitive moments and exhibition games and an olive

346
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:11.359
branch here in twenty twenty three.
You've been Arizona many times, covered a

347
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:17.240
lot of big events there, the
hockey Coyotes's what are your thoughts on what's

348
00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:19.680
going on there with the Coyotes?
Is it even a hockey town in your

349
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:22.480
eyes? You've been there many times. No, it never has been.

350
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:26.519
And I remember when you know they
had a BlackBerry, Jim Balsilano, Donny,

351
00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:30.160
you've still got a BlackBerry. They
hold on a second friand you're the

352
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:34.440
last person I know that had a
BlackBerry. No, Bob mackenzie and Pierre

353
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:38.279
Lebrun, Okay, okay, those
guys had blackberries after I did, and

354
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.200
I did have one for a long
time. I was forced to get to

355
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:45.319
get an iPhone and it was a
good thing. But I remember back when

356
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.480
he was looking at buying the team. I mean we're talking like fifteen years

357
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:52.920
ago now. I was in Arizona
covering that story. And when you look

358
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:57.160
at just what this franchise has been
through in terms of different owners, different

359
00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:03.359
locations, different situations with City of
Glendale and eventually being essentially kicked out and

360
00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:07.440
having to play in this little,
tiny college barn and all of it's it's

361
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:10.680
so bad and through it all,
Gary Bettman has just doubled down, double

362
00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:12.799
down, and double down some more. And I wonder if he actually would

363
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:18.839
ever admit a level of embarrassment or
I got it wrong? Right? Like,

364
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:22.200
is Gary capable of that? Because
Gary, you got this wrong,

365
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:26.319
and you had it wrong for around
twenty years now, right, and you

366
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:32.160
just continued to just say no.
So it's it's unfortunate what they've been through.

367
00:24:32.200 --> 00:24:33.119
I'm curious see what it's going to
look like if they wind up in

368
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:37.400
Salt Lake or if they wind up
in Houston or some of these other cities,

369
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:41.759
you know, and what it does
eventually to the expansion process, because

370
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:45.000
it certainly appears as though this team's
days are done, and they should have

371
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:49.480
been done long ago in the valley. Any suggestions asked to where they could

372
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:55.559
move, but Kansas City is the
latest city that's been talked about thanks to

373
00:24:55.640 --> 00:24:59.680
Patrick mahone Yeah yesterday, Yeah,
that'd be good and maybe he'll put some

374
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.599
money into it and get it done. You know, I think they should

375
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:06.799
move to Anmore and be in your
backyard because you'd get enough space back there

376
00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:12.119
for a brand new arena. That's
kind of what I'm thinking, wasn't I

377
00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:15.359
wasn't supposed to tell everybody that you
lived in a palatial state and ann where

378
00:25:15.400 --> 00:25:18.000
with security in the mode, right, Yeah, but I didn't know that.

379
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:22.519
Don't worry about it, Okay,
But you know, I don't know

380
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:26.839
because none of them are hockey towns. Right. So Lake has the Olympic

381
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:29.799
experience, and you know, from
a time zone perspective, I think some

382
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:30.920
of that stuff matters. You don't
want to put him in Sacramento at the

383
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:36.240
Pacific time zone and and and have
to realign and things like that. Houston's

384
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:40.519
obviously a big city that has some
successful sports franchises in the other three major

385
00:25:40.599 --> 00:25:44.319
sports. You know, he's the
room for the NHL probably, So I

386
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.279
don't know what the right scenario is, right, there's some bigger markets,

387
00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:49.079
there's some markets where it could be
a little bit higher up to queue in

388
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.640
terms of importance. But go to
Quebec City, man, they want it.

389
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:56.720
They want it, and if you
tell them you're going there, they'll

390
00:25:56.880 --> 00:25:59.960
if the arena that they built a
decade ago is outdated, they'll probably read

391
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:03.000
build another one. Right. So
there there's a real passion for it and

392
00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:06.519
as we saw when the Jets went
back to Winnipeg, it's a winner,

393
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:08.160
right, it's a winner. And
you don't have to go through this.

394
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:11.839
You can have some stability. So
and I get why it's all about mark

395
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.319
and size, but they have to
have some interest in hockey and I'm not

396
00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:18.519
sure any of these other ones.
Du So, Yeah, it's gonna be

397
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:22.839
tough. Fran. Thanks for this. That BlackBerry movies out by the way,

398
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:26.160
right, yeah, just came out. Yeah, is it really Yeah?

399
00:26:26.440 --> 00:26:30.599
Yeah? About are you in the
start? Hey again, you're the

400
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:33.160
last person I know to have a
BlackBerry. Yeah. I had a BlackBerry

401
00:26:33.240 --> 00:26:37.720
Prive and I did well by but
then at the end it got smoking hot,

402
00:26:37.839 --> 00:26:41.240
like I'd literally put in my pocket
and would burn. And then TSN

403
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.279
got to the point where they said, look, we're not going to give

404
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:48.000
you any more product support on the
tech side for this. If you want

405
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:49.400
that, you gotta get an you
gotta get an iPhone, you gotta get

406
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:52.680
an Android. Then they just set
me the iPhone without me even asking.

407
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:55.920
And it's been good. Yeah,
too bad, you got a free iPhone.

408
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:00.480
Fran. Thanks for this, My
friend appreciate it. See, yeah,

409
00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:04.680
there you go. Cross over the
moat anytime you want. Um.

410
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.440
Yeah, that BlackBerry movie? Is
it? What's the worst coming out with?

411
00:27:10.359 --> 00:27:12.160
Down's what's happened? Bruff was tweeting
about it. He said, he's

412
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:17.759
very good. Okay, you're gonna
go by him. Apparently it makes Balsilly

413
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:22.839
look not great, silly but silly. Yeah. Yeah, well we just

414
00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:29.240
took a Farhand did and we have
taken shots with Gary Bettman about Arizona.

415
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:33.720
Balsilly was going after the penguins and
coyotes and a whole bunch of Terry Batman

416
00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:37.720
didn't want him in the club.
He didn't want him he knew something,

417
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:41.279
which which I remember it being so
ridiculous at the time, because of BlackBerry

418
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.599
was still fairly massive. Yeah,
and so it was like, come on,

419
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:48.720
here's a guy connected to tech.
How would you not want that?

420
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.000
Apparently he made the right call.
Did never let him in. And one

421
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:56.680
more thing. Farhand made a point
there about smoke making its way from northeastern

422
00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:00.160
BC. I would imagine, but
the forest fires up there down to Cambloops.

423
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.359
So the Lions had to move indoors
yesterday. Yeah, the same as

424
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:06.799
last year. Remember last year they
had to do the same thing last year.

425
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:10.920

would move up. I think he's in

559

an advisory role right now. Keith
Gratzky another candidate assistant GM, but that's

560
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:05.760
gonna have to wait. Ken Hollen
says he's gonna stick around for at least

561
00:38:05.920 --> 00:38:09.280
another year. But he was made
available to the press up at Evanston yesterday

00:41:02.880 --> 00:41:07.199
these things that crunch cars? Yeah, line with what we saw with points.

594
00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:12.119
There's one that looks just like a
trax. Yeah, yes, freaky

595
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:16.760
thunder excitement, thrills coming to Saratoga
Speedway this weekend. All of the details

596
00:41:16.800 --> 00:41:23.159
are at Saratoga Racing dot C a
Saratoga Speedway fueling excitement since nineteen sixty nine.

597
00:41:23.760 --> 00:41:25.800
First of all, let's get to
a tweet from one of our viewers,

598
00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:31.400
Dan is in Hawaii. He sent
this to us last night, Dolly,

599
00:41:31.440 --> 00:41:36.320
wall I found your dream entree out
here in Hawaii. You'll see where

600
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:40.480
the red arrow is pointed on the
menu. It's a Wally steak Crown Royal.

601
00:41:42.800 --> 00:41:46.639
The steak is cooked in a Crown
Royal. Demigloss say that again?

602
00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:52.480
You marinate the steak with Crown Royal. Yeah, what a brilliant idea.

603
00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:55.519
Have you ever done that? No? You should apparently. I think the

604
00:41:55.599 --> 00:41:59.159
big question is who's Wally. Yeah. I don't know. I'm not sure

605
00:41:59.199 --> 00:42:04.159
if this is like wall These Steak
steakhouse or something, but Walty is apparently

606
00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:07.519
marinating his steak and Crown Royal.
Yep. So yeah, you see people

607
00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:10.920
marinate stuff with beer? Is that
is? Have you seen that which you're

608
00:42:10.920 --> 00:42:15.039
getting ripped for? By the way, there's somebody in our inbox saying that

609
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:19.440
you should support craft breweries Budweiser.
Wonder for a while, I have a

610
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:24.599
bottom a cokeney guy at heart done
first ever. They're not Craft's BC though,

611
00:42:24.679 --> 00:42:30.239
Yeah, holding a second my first
ever beer beer cocony and I love

612
00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:34.920
it. It's brewed and the Cootney's
uh and the Mountain's done. The clean

613
00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:39.119
water on what he's doing an ad
here, I'm a cocony guy. Budweiser

614
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:43.320
once in a while. Remember Wally's
Burgers in King's Way? Yeah? Yeah,

615
00:42:43.800 --> 00:42:45.519
yeah, I don't so. I
don't think he's made his way to

616
00:42:45.880 --> 00:42:52.679
Hawaii? Yeah? Who was that? Thanks for him? From from Dan

617
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:58.360
Dan good guy Dad tweeted yesterday,
Okay, let's move on here. You

618
00:42:58.400 --> 00:43:01.159
guys have alluded to this, and
so Edgovanoski in our next hour. Patrick

619
00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:06.920
Mahomes causing a bit of a stir
yesterday by tweeting out, Kcy coyotes is

620
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:12.239
a nice ring to it, NHL, what y'all think? Then he tagged

621
00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:15.280
the T Mobile Center. So the
T Mobile Center is the building that's been

622
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:19.159
in Kansas City now for I'm going
to say at least ten years, and

623
00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:22.320
it doesn't have a tenant. It's
got concerts obviously they roll through if but

624
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:24.559
it doesn't have a permanent tenant like
a sports team, and so that's why

625
00:43:24.679 --> 00:43:30.920
everyone has always said that KC might
be interesting for the NHL because you have

626
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:34.599
a building sitting there now, whether
or not you would have Central time Zone

627
00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:38.519
or there about built in rival with
the Saint Louis Blues, and I mean

628
00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:44.519
you're competing with the Chiefs obviously,
the NFL and the Royals, but there's

629
00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:46.639
no NBA team you have to go
up against. The Royals are awful,

630
00:43:46.719 --> 00:43:51.119
they've had success, but they're awful
currently, so you wouldn't have to worry

631
00:43:51.119 --> 00:43:53.000
about that. The interesting thing about
this, and of course Mahomes doesn't clarify

632
00:43:53.119 --> 00:43:57.360
this with this, is he saying, hey, NHL has come on down

633
00:43:57.360 --> 00:43:59.320
to Kansas City, or is he
saying, hey, I would like to

634
00:43:59.400 --> 00:44:04.920
be part of bringing a team to
Kansas So I would imagine it's the former,

635
00:44:05.159 --> 00:44:09.000
like just like just over there.
Yeah. Yeah, he's been at

636
00:44:09.039 --> 00:44:13.480
Blues games a lot. In twenty
nineteen, he was there wearing a Blues

637
00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:16.920
jersey. Same right, Missouri.
So I would think it would be as

638
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:21.719
a fan. And obviously if we're
talking ownership as part as part of a

639
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:27.079
group. Of course, the Kansas
City Scouts lasted two years in the NHL

640
00:44:27.679 --> 00:44:30.599
in the seventies and they went on
to become the Colorado Rockies, who went

641
00:44:30.679 --> 00:44:37.840
on to become the Colorado Where did
they go? The cook would become a

642
00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:42.159
talking tree, talking tree. New
Jersey Devils. Oh the Devil's yeah,

643
00:44:42.199 --> 00:44:45.480
Devil's Uh. The most important thing
about that tweet was two point two million

644
00:44:45.559 --> 00:44:49.679
views. Yea, it was.
He's got two point four million followers.

645
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:53.599
When a high profile NFL guy does
this, this does wonders for the National

646
00:44:53.679 --> 00:44:59.639
Hockey Look at the names with the
NHL Mahomes this right, Snoop Dogg and

647
00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:02.840
Ryan Ds. We know Reynolds is
out the weekend as well. It's a

648
00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:07.079
big names have been attached to the
NHL. Reason Aaron Rodgers was at the

649
00:45:07.159 --> 00:45:12.519
Rangers devil also as well. Yeah, yeah, it all helps and and

650
00:45:12.760 --> 00:45:15.039
we we didn't we didn't talk about
it. But as we were closing yesterday

651
00:45:15.159 --> 00:45:20.199
show the Coyotes, I just shake
my head. The Kyotes confirmed that they're

652
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:23.199
staying at Mother Arena at least for
next season and they're gonna continue on trying

653
00:45:23.239 --> 00:45:28.039
to find a home in Arizona.
Now. The latest other than the Kansas

654
00:45:28.079 --> 00:45:34.239
City development with Patrick Mahomes, is
that there's this talk of maybe partnering with

655
00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:37.920
the new Sun's ownership group. Yeah, they talked, and I don't know

656
00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:40.519
if that that means going back again. I don't know the name of the

657
00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:45.000
arena is downtown, It's it's changed
talking. So what is it now with

658
00:45:45.079 --> 00:45:49.519
the Suns. No, it's it's
footprint center right with the Sun's play the

659
00:45:49.559 --> 00:45:52.599
one in Glendale. No, the
one in downtown of Phoenix. The one

660
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:58.239
in Glendale is I went, was
there a few years ago. It's not

661
00:45:58.400 --> 00:46:01.320
made for hockey. It's favorite basketball. I don't have the tweet in front

662
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:05.320
of me, and I apologize,
but I saw something this morning that they're

663
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:08.719
already reaching out to another part of
Arizona, apparently about building a stadium now.

664
00:46:10.280 --> 00:46:14.440
But the second part of the tweet
from the person, and I think

665
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:16.199
it was a news report in Arizona, mentioned how if they even if they

666
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:20.639
did this, it would have to
be public support again. You'd have to

667
00:46:20.639 --> 00:46:22.519
have another vote. You want to
put that to the people again. You

668
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:27.639
don't want to say no again.
Like I think yesterday we made the point

669
00:46:27.760 --> 00:46:31.159
where it's not just saying no to
the entertainment a complex. They said no

670
00:46:31.239 --> 00:46:37.360
to hockey. That's for over twenty
years that that market has said no to

671
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:40.599
NHL hockey, the highest level hockey
in the world. They've said no to

672
00:46:40.719 --> 00:46:45.360
it. This is Seventh's something else, Donny, This is the seventh order

673
00:46:45.599 --> 00:46:49.239
in twenty six years that's trying to
fix it. Why are they getting a

674
00:46:49.280 --> 00:46:53.559
million chances? No other city gets
a million chances. Yeah, franchises move

675
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:59.119
in every league. Well, I
mean like it's it's if it's embarrassment that

676
00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:00.960
he's to bet it, get over
it, because you know, maybe you've

677
00:47:01.000 --> 00:47:05.920
had other teams move. This is
far more work out. This is far

678
00:47:06.039 --> 00:47:10.000
more embarrassing at this point, just
hanging on desperation. Oh, jova said

679
00:47:10.039 --> 00:47:14.119
it. You know, Jovanski told
us he said get him out of there,

680
00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:16.960
And I mean no in disrespect.
Steve Peters was great yesterday with you.

681
00:47:17.559 --> 00:47:22.000
And there probably is a hardcore portion
of hockey fans in Arizona. I

682
00:47:22.039 --> 00:47:27.000
mean, I don't outcore. Where
do you see the hardcore they but but

683
00:47:27.320 --> 00:47:30.719
they're in there in their biggest drink. There's not it's seven thousand, and

684
00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:34.119
I'm sure there are hardcore fans there. There are four or five of them

685
00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:37.840
right right by the way. You
let the count out of the bag.

686
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:39.800
We recorded the interview with the Jova. Oh okay, I let the count

687
00:47:39.800 --> 00:47:43.199
out of. I did the next
segment too, But you didn't listen to

688
00:47:43.280 --> 00:47:45.400
him? Yeah he did. I
said, I really, I know.

689
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:49.000
Well, you know what, I've
lost all respect for you because well in

690
00:47:49.119 --> 00:47:53.119
you too, you're not gonna watch
the conference? Said, well you watch.

691
00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:57.039
He never said we're not gonna watch, didn't say we're not watching it.

692
00:47:57.199 --> 00:48:00.360
I said the interest is in his
hot. Is it in Boston Toronto?

693
00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:04.239
That's not what you guys. If
it's Boston Toronto tonight, I am

694
00:48:04.440 --> 00:48:07.719
into it. I'm not into it
with these two, shouldn't I know one

695
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:10.519
guy that's gonna definitely back up Taylor
who question? And that's our next guest,

696
00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:15.880
John Shannon say he's dialed in.
He's a hockey lifer and that's fine.

697
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:17.519
Problem with that. I thought you
guys were hot. Bottom line is

698
00:48:17.559 --> 00:48:21.559
these four teams are pretty much met
for me. Coming up next, we

699
00:48:21.679 --> 00:48:25.360
talked to John Shannon and we play
that prerecorded interview with Jovanovski coming up at

700
00:48:25.400 --> 00:48:30.119
eleven fifteen, along with DTMZ Is
it just Me and much more Donny and

701
00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:38.400
all the team on check Oliver Our
guests today on this Thursday, including John

702
00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:45.920
Shannon standing by, brought to you
by the Vancouver Giants Vancouver Giants dot Com.

703
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:50.000
Tell you about Kansas City and then
possibility of the NHL going back there.

704
00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:54.760
The Kansas City Scouts back in the
day, great unis so nice,

705
00:48:54.920 --> 00:49:00.159
red blue, yellow? Do you
remember those at all? I've remember are

706
00:49:00.239 --> 00:49:04.360
watching the Kansas City getting at me. I love the Kansas City Scouts.

707
00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:07.000
Well they were pretty bad, but
anyways, yeah, and they moved after

708
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:12.960
two years. John Shannon, NHL
analyst, co hosted the Bomb Account podcast.

709
00:49:13.079 --> 00:49:15.360
He remembers the Kansas City Scouts.
He joins us Now, John,

710
00:49:15.440 --> 00:49:19.639
thanks for doing this, sir.
How are you? I'm doing great?

711
00:49:19.679 --> 00:49:23.719
In fact, this year New Jersey
in their reverse recros did a salute to

712
00:49:23.800 --> 00:49:28.440
the Scouts in their in their color
scheme post sweaters. Yeah, yeah,

713
00:49:28.840 --> 00:49:34.119
yeah, absolutely, and we all
remember Simon lay and Wolf Paymont, Wolf

714
00:49:34.199 --> 00:49:38.239
Paymon, Danny Herron, great Scouts
of the past. John, your interest

715
00:49:38.360 --> 00:49:43.719
level, because we've been arguing about
this the last hour. Your interest level

716
00:49:43.840 --> 00:49:49.440
in this National Hockey League final for
the conference finals. Well, Ryan's right,

717
00:49:49.519 --> 00:49:52.719
I have interests because I love the
National Hockey League. I love the

718
00:49:52.719 --> 00:49:55.639
Stanley Cup playoffs. But I actually
think that that Ryan and Rick are closer

719
00:49:55.679 --> 00:49:59.400
to what we're going to see in
our country for the next couple of days.

720
00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:04.119
And what's going to happen over the
holiday weekend is by the time we

721
00:50:04.199 --> 00:50:07.400
get to Tuesday, and remember,
we're going to go back to having a

722
00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:13.840
hockey game every night starting tonight that
they were by game three when in the

723
00:50:14.000 --> 00:50:16.920
series both moved to the other city. People will be back. And also

724
00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:22.320
so we're going to see ratings rather
disappointing, rather low through the weekend,

725
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:24.639
and then they'll start to spike again
as we get into next week and we

726
00:50:24.719 --> 00:50:28.719
get closer to finding out who will
play for the Stanley Cup. Yeah,

727
00:50:28.960 --> 00:50:32.920
as a proud Canadian, John,
the four remaining teams all from the US

728
00:50:32.960 --> 00:50:37.679
South, all from non traditional hockey
markets. So you're okay with that?

729
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:43.079
Well, I mean, listen,
we let them into the club. You

730
00:50:43.199 --> 00:50:45.480
know, you have to pay the
consequences, you know, I look at

731
00:50:46.679 --> 00:50:52.280
I look at Paul Maurice, He's
Canadian. You know, Pete Dabors Canadian,

732
00:50:52.719 --> 00:50:58.280
Rus Cassidy's Canadian, Rod Britain Wars
Canadian. They're still forty to fifty

733
00:50:58.320 --> 00:51:00.880
percent of the players or Canadian It's
still our game in so many ways,

734
00:51:01.239 --> 00:51:06.119
and by the way, it's still
our cup, So it's I don't have

735
00:51:06.239 --> 00:51:09.559
an issue with that. We you
know, that whole Canadian versus American thing

736
00:51:09.840 --> 00:51:15.239
and been out in in my opinion, went out for the most part in

737
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:21.079
nineteen sixty seven when they expanded to
six American cities without even contemplating going to

738
00:51:21.199 --> 00:51:25.880
Vancouver or any other place in Canada. Four remaining teams, John Crystal Ball,

739
00:51:25.920 --> 00:51:32.559
who's your pick? Well, I
have studied Vegas closely for the first

740
00:51:32.599 --> 00:51:37.800
two rounds. I did. I
did some work in both series for radio

741
00:51:37.920 --> 00:51:44.000
in Winnipeg and radio in Edmonton.
They are They are a whirling dervish.

742
00:51:44.400 --> 00:51:50.440
They are impressive. They are relentless. Aiden Hill, as the backup goalie,

743
00:51:50.840 --> 00:51:52.639
is actually a better goalie than the
Laurent Bossois And all the people on

744
00:51:52.679 --> 00:51:55.239
the island don't want to hear that, but that's the truth. Well,

745
00:51:55.280 --> 00:52:00.039
he guess he's from the island too, isn't he. Yeah? But uh,

746
00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:05.679
but Aiden Hill was a starter for
more of the seat regular season than

747
00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:09.920
Bossois was. So if they can
solve their goaltending problem, when you think

748
00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:15.719
of their defense with the experience of
Petrangelo and Martinez and Theodore and McNabb all

749
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:23.000
have Stanley Cup rings. When you
think of you know what mark Stone is

750
00:52:23.119 --> 00:52:28.199
to that club and how in many
ways I think he has taken Jack Eichel

751
00:52:28.280 --> 00:52:30.599
under his wing, and you can
see Eichel playing like a true pro.

752
00:52:30.760 --> 00:52:34.440
Now. I think Vegas is going
to be tough to beat. I really

753
00:52:34.480 --> 00:52:38.280
do. John. Let's talk about
what's going on in Arizona. Your thoughts,

754
00:52:38.519 --> 00:52:42.519
Uh, you know, they get
Tempe, the voters shot down the

755
00:52:43.360 --> 00:52:45.480
new arena. What's going to happen
here? I mean, it just happens

756
00:52:45.519 --> 00:52:49.960
every four or five years. It
looks like it feels like it, doesn't

757
00:52:49.960 --> 00:52:54.119
it. Yeah, um My gut
tells me we're close to the end.

758
00:52:55.519 --> 00:53:01.480
And and I think that in order
to try to get a proper resolution,

759
00:53:01.599 --> 00:53:08.280
whether that's new ownership or whether that's
relocation, you know, you need a

760
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:12.880
year to a year and a half
to do that. So that just fits

761
00:53:12.920 --> 00:53:15.440
in with playing one more year at
mult Arena yea, and then moving on.

762
00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:22.960
But I can see us at this
time next year talking about the Coyotes

763
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:30.159
being in another city and and and
so or or being owned by Matt Ishpia,

764
00:53:30.239 --> 00:53:35.599
who owns the Phoenix Suns, and
they're gonna play downtown for a relatively

765
00:53:35.639 --> 00:53:38.000
short period of time before they have
to renovate again because they've just finished a

766
00:53:38.039 --> 00:53:44.079
renovation downtown renovate again to allow for
hockey or are they build a brand new

767
00:53:44.119 --> 00:53:46.119
arena and Phoenix at some point?
But those are to me, those are

768
00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:51.480
the two options local ownership with Ishpia
and then and then move the team.

769
00:53:52.119 --> 00:53:55.079
John, Why why did they get
so many chances in Arizona? Other teams

770
00:53:55.079 --> 00:53:59.599
have moved? Uh, you know, attendance is down. You we're gonna

771
00:53:59.599 --> 00:54:01.960
move you. Why do these guys
get so many chances? In your eyes?

772
00:54:02.679 --> 00:54:07.480
Two things, It's it's in the
top fifteen markets in the United States,

773
00:54:08.199 --> 00:54:13.719
so it's a really big market,
you know. And it's it's a

774
00:54:13.800 --> 00:54:16.239
market with all four major professional sports, and I think that that's, you

775
00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:20.519
know, there is something to be
said for that. The other thing is

776
00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:23.039
that Gary's always been able to find
somebody to buy it right. So,

777
00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:30.480
you know, if you make comparisons
to the last team that was relocated,

778
00:54:30.519 --> 00:54:36.440
which was Winnipeg, that was after
a decade of infighting amongst ownership in Atlanta

779
00:54:36.800 --> 00:54:39.840
and Finally, the five owners realized
they could not get along, they could

780
00:54:39.880 --> 00:54:43.239
not work with each other, and
they threw the keys on the table and

781
00:54:43.280 --> 00:54:45.480
said, Gary, we're giving this
up. We don't want anything to do

782
00:54:45.599 --> 00:54:50.280
with this, so you can do
with it what you want. And he

783
00:54:50.400 --> 00:54:52.239
only had one place to send it
at that point, and that was Winnipeg.

784
00:54:52.719 --> 00:54:57.039
That's hasn't been the case. And
as as we've seen with Ottawa,

785
00:54:58.159 --> 00:55:00.800
there are plenty of people willing to
dip their toe in and say, I

786
00:55:00.960 --> 00:55:04.840
might want to buy a hockey team, I might be interested in this.

787
00:55:05.039 --> 00:55:07.400
I can make a real estate play
out of this. So that's why it's

788
00:55:07.480 --> 00:55:13.400
all. That's why he's always believed
in in the Valley of the Sun as

789
00:55:13.400 --> 00:55:16.199
a potential. What's never happened,
guys, I'm sorry for getting on a

790
00:55:16.239 --> 00:55:24.280
soapbox here, but what's never happened
in Phoenix is good ownership and a good

791
00:55:24.320 --> 00:55:30.000
team. Yeah right, you know
that's an amazing combination. Yeah, you

792
00:55:30.079 --> 00:55:35.360
get you get good ownership and then
you get a team that's actually proficient on

793
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:37.039
the ice. I mean, how
many times, I mean, what was

794
00:55:37.079 --> 00:55:40.320
it twenty twelve? I think the
last time they really made it. Dent

795
00:55:40.480 --> 00:55:45.719
in the playoffs eleven years ago.
I mean, maybe maybe the fans in

796
00:55:45.800 --> 00:55:49.159
Phoenix are actually smarter than we think
and they don't want to go watch bad

797
00:55:49.239 --> 00:55:52.920
hockey. Yep. I know he
had Gary Bettman on the Bob McCown podcast,

798
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:57.239
but a week and a half ago
or so, Johnny talked about the

799
00:55:57.320 --> 00:56:00.440
Phoenix situation. But of the cities
that we bring up, is possible destination

800
00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:05.920
Salt Lake City, Kansas City,
Houston, Quebec. Is there one that

801
00:56:06.000 --> 00:56:10.440
you think intrigues or interests Gary more
than the others? Salt Lake City?

802
00:56:12.679 --> 00:56:17.239
I really think so, because well, there there is an NBO a owner

803
00:56:17.360 --> 00:56:22.960
there named Ryan Smith from Portland who
has a desire to bring an NHL team

804
00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:30.000
to UM Salt Lake. He's he's
dipped his toe in ownership of other bidding

805
00:56:30.119 --> 00:56:34.440
processes UM Kansas City. I think
it's off the table, guys, I

806
00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:36.400
know you. I heard you're talking
about it. I think it's off the

807
00:56:36.440 --> 00:56:40.199
table because that building that is owned
by Philip Anne shoots his company, UM

808
00:56:40.760 --> 00:56:45.719
actually makes money without having a professional
sports team in it. Of the of

809
00:56:45.800 --> 00:56:49.280
the Big Four, of the Big
Two, the NBA, of the NHL,

810
00:56:49.519 --> 00:56:52.719
I don't think they need it or
wanted, right, I think,

811
00:56:52.079 --> 00:56:55.320
And there's there's no single owner sitting
there and saying I want to bring a

812
00:56:55.400 --> 00:57:00.840
team to Kansas City. Uh,
I mean Quebec City. I just you

813
00:57:00.920 --> 00:57:02.599
know, it breaks my heart to
say. And I'm gonna get heck for

814
00:57:02.719 --> 00:57:07.039
it. But Quebec City's never going
to get a team never. It's the

815
00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:10.679
market's not big enough. Sure,
the arena is spectacular, the fan base

816
00:57:10.840 --> 00:57:15.119
is there, but this is a
time when corporate I mean corporate marketing,

817
00:57:15.199 --> 00:57:22.800
corporate partnerships have to account for eighty
ninety million dollars and that's just not going

818
00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:24.960
to be the case in Quebec City. And it can't be government money,

819
00:57:27.159 --> 00:57:29.719
you know. I know the Quebec
government wants to get the team there,

820
00:57:29.760 --> 00:57:31.960
but it can't be government money.
So take that off the table. And

821
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:37.000
the other two big cities, Atlanta
in Houston. I think for some reason,

822
00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:40.039
if if, if, if somebody
can't buy a team for those two

823
00:57:40.079 --> 00:57:44.840
places, they're saving them for expansion. Yeah. Could you imagine if they

824
00:57:44.840 --> 00:57:47.320
went to Atlanta a third time and
it didn't work there would That's not the

825
00:57:47.559 --> 00:57:52.039
that's not the kind of hat trick
you want. I'll be in the cabin

826
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:55.920
at the lake by then, boys, All right, John, I know

827
00:57:57.199 --> 00:58:00.960
you and I will enjoy the conference
finals, So do that, okay.

828
00:58:00.559 --> 00:58:02.880

say a lot Ed Jovianoski when you're talk

829
00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:07.440

869
01:01:13.840 --> 01:01:20.440
time to get Edgewobnoski on the show. Florida Panthers analyst, former Panthers former

870
01:01:20.519 --> 01:01:23.199
canack ed. Thanks for doing this, sir, How are you hey?

871
01:01:23.320 --> 01:01:30.760
Guys by long time? Yeah,
absolutely, absolutely looking buddy, You're the

872
01:01:30.800 --> 01:01:36.039
first person to say that in the
last ten years. Hey Joe, what

873
01:01:36.119 --> 01:01:37.360
do you What are you up to
these days? For people who don't know

874
01:01:37.480 --> 01:01:44.679
other than doing analysis, that's pretty
much much right now, you know,

875
01:01:44.800 --> 01:01:47.400
I think, you know, during
the season's obviously nice having that structure.

876
01:01:47.480 --> 01:01:52.119
We all know as players sometimes you
know, coming out of the game,

877
01:01:52.199 --> 01:01:54.480
you're just trying to kind of find
yourself and see where you're kind of gonna

878
01:01:54.639 --> 01:01:58.239
find your niche a little bit.
So it took a couple of years kind

879
01:01:58.280 --> 01:02:01.320
of get back with the team,
covered them, you know, all year

880
01:02:01.360 --> 01:02:06.199
for the last handful of years.
So it's been it's been fun, you

881
01:02:06.280 --> 01:02:08.360
know, enjoy doing what I'm doing, and especially right now obviously with the

882
01:02:08.480 --> 01:02:14.480
team, you know, being in
the Eastern Conference Finals. Not covering them

883
01:02:14.599 --> 01:02:19.159
right now because the national TV,
but certainly fun to continue watching them play

884
01:02:19.760 --> 01:02:22.800
and they're an eighth seed. You
look at the overall standings, they're actually

885
01:02:22.880 --> 01:02:27.320
seven teeth overall during the regular season, but here they are winning, knocking

886
01:02:27.400 --> 01:02:30.280
off Boston, knocking off Toronto in
the Eastern Final. How do you explain

887
01:02:30.360 --> 01:02:36.039
that, Well, it's quite remarkable
kind of what they've done. And you

888
01:02:36.119 --> 01:02:38.559
look at this season, you know, one of the areas where you know,

889
01:02:38.760 --> 01:02:43.159
quite a bit of concern was is
how inconsistent this group was, and

890
01:02:43.280 --> 01:02:45.159
if you look at their core of
guys, you're kind of shaking your head.

891
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:50.559
Going out is as possible. The
goaltending obviously wasn't great throughout the year.

892
01:02:51.039 --> 01:02:52.880
Come January time, we all know, you know, coach kind of

893
01:02:52.920 --> 01:02:58.760
went berserk on the bench, Keith
Kachuck called them out and ever since then

894
01:02:58.840 --> 01:03:01.760
they kind of found their game again. And coach Marie's been talking from the

895
01:03:01.880 --> 01:03:07.320
get go, you know, about
just changing their style of play to be

896
01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:12.039
conducive for playoff time, and we
were all kind of waiting around to kind

897
01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:15.719
of see when that was gonna come
to fruition for him. But slowly,

898
01:03:15.840 --> 01:03:20.199
Sureleott did found themselves kind of getting
into the playoffs by a point. So

899
01:03:21.079 --> 01:03:23.199
are they an eight seed? I
don't think if you look at their group

900
01:03:23.320 --> 01:03:27.719
they're an eight seed. They're better
than eight seed team. But running up

901
01:03:27.719 --> 01:03:31.880
against Boston was obviously a tall task, you know, being down three games

902
01:03:31.920 --> 01:03:36.280
to one. Listening, I mean, they had to worry about game five

903
01:03:36.360 --> 01:03:39.800
in that situation. But Rovsky comes
in in such a crazy moment, pressure

904
01:03:39.880 --> 01:03:44.079
moment for him and rattles off three
in a row, finding a way to

905
01:03:44.119 --> 01:03:46.760
get through Boston and then taking care
of Toronto and five, how do you

906
01:03:46.840 --> 01:03:50.920
explain it? I think you get
hot at the right time, you feel

907
01:03:50.960 --> 01:03:53.679
good about your game, you get
excellent goaltending, you get timely goals,

908
01:03:54.400 --> 01:03:58.960
and you ride the wave kind of
simmer kind of what we did in ninety

909
01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:02.559
six pack here in four to You
know, this team was much more talented

910
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:05.760
in the group that we had.
But you know, winning is contagious.

911
01:04:05.840 --> 01:04:09.719
When you get on that role,
you feel like you can't lose, and

912
01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:13.119
he just kind of do the little
things that contribute to big ws. What

913
01:04:13.199 --> 01:04:18.239
do you like about Matthew Kachuk's game
and you mentioned him there everything you know,

914
01:04:18.480 --> 01:04:21.559
in coming into a new situation,
we never know kind of what to

915
01:04:21.719 --> 01:04:27.039
expect, especially a blockbuster trade like
that, But right from the get go

916
01:04:28.119 --> 01:04:30.599
he came in. He's been as
consistent as possible. Obviously again over one

917
01:04:30.679 --> 01:04:34.760
hundred points and playing a certain way, likes to mix it up, gets

918
01:04:34.800 --> 01:04:41.400
the tough areas, big goals leadership, he can check all those boxes and

919
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:45.119
he's carried that over into the playoffs. He drags everybody into the fight.

920
01:04:45.199 --> 01:04:48.119
So for him, and another thing, I love them, just kind of

921
01:04:48.159 --> 01:04:53.760
on the side just hearing his interviews
right from the get go, this is

922
01:04:53.840 --> 01:04:57.599
the place he wanted to be,
how happy he was, how excited he

923
01:04:57.760 --> 01:05:00.440
was, and what's not to like. I mean, playing in Florida,

924
01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:03.239
he got a good team, a
chance to win, you know, for

925
01:05:03.360 --> 01:05:06.199
him. So everything kind of all
the stars aligned for him towards the end

926
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:10.559
of the season, especially the position
they're in right now, Yed, can

927
01:05:10.639 --> 01:05:15.119
you talk about Goostat Forsling drafted by
the can Canucks got rid of him real

928
01:05:15.199 --> 01:05:16.760
quick, and all of a sudden, you know, he finds his niche

929
01:05:16.960 --> 01:05:20.239
in Florida's there's some nights she plays
more than that, blad. What do

930
01:05:20.320 --> 01:05:25.599
you like about him? Just the
way he skates. We all know in

931
01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:29.239
this league as defenseman, if you
can get back and get the puck quick

932
01:05:29.519 --> 01:05:31.960
in this advance that make a good
first pass, you're going to play in

933
01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:36.079
this league a long time. And
you know, he's a guy that plays

934
01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:41.760
against top lines. He's well positioned, he's agile, he's got a bomb

935
01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:45.119
of a shot, and his offensive
instincts are there, you know, and

936
01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:48.679
I think, you know, grabbing
this guy for what they got him for

937
01:05:49.719 --> 01:05:54.559
everything kind of builds zero is kind
of brought into the folder. Get Brandon

938
01:05:54.639 --> 01:05:59.360
bant to or another example in that
case where just kind of taking his game

939
01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:04.199
to an elite level. But certainly, you know, playing playing a lot

940
01:06:04.280 --> 01:06:08.719
of minutes for this team, and
the guy, you know, he's blocking

941
01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:12.679
shots, he doesn't miss time.
You know, he's a real durable type

942
01:06:12.719 --> 01:06:16.639
player for the way he plays.
ED have to ask you about what's happening

943
01:06:16.679 --> 01:06:20.679
in Arizona. You played their five
years. Tempe voters shot down a vote

944
01:06:20.719 --> 01:06:24.400
for a new rank. They could
be leaving, they could be staying.

945
01:06:24.679 --> 01:06:29.320
Your thoughts on what's happening with the
Coyotes. Well, I think we can

946
01:06:29.400 --> 01:06:30.800
all agree it's time to get out
of there. Yeah, you know,

947
01:06:31.039 --> 01:06:34.480
I listen. I mean, you're
gonna plan another, you know, another

948
01:06:34.559 --> 01:06:38.880
season at Mullet Arena. It is
what it is I think coming up.

949
01:06:39.320 --> 01:06:41.920
You know, obviously you know what
to vote. I don't know too much

950
01:06:41.920 --> 01:06:44.199
about it, honestly, don't read
too much about it. But I know

951
01:06:44.360 --> 01:06:48.239
that they were denied, and but
I think there's obviously I saw the clip

952
01:06:48.320 --> 01:06:53.039
this morning about Patrick Mahones on his
Twitter or whatever he posted. I would

953
01:06:53.079 --> 01:06:56.679
love to have them in Kansas city. I think a lot of viable options

954
01:06:57.199 --> 01:07:00.400
that will work. I think for
players, listen, you want to play

955
01:07:00.920 --> 01:07:05.760
in environment where you're welcome, where
you feel that you know you're playing in

956
01:07:05.880 --> 01:07:11.000
front of fans. I mean that's
I mean five yeah here, Mullet Arena

957
01:07:11.119 --> 01:07:14.159
is a great spot. That noise
and this and that. There're a lot

958
01:07:14.239 --> 01:07:17.199
different playing in front of eighteen nineteen
thousand people on a nightly basis, you

959
01:07:17.320 --> 01:07:20.159
know, versus that. So I
hope, all in all, the league

960
01:07:20.199 --> 01:07:24.960
figured out. Gary Benn's a smart
guy, you know, daily smart guy.

961
01:07:25.119 --> 01:07:29.559
I think they'll figure it out.
And but let's face it, it's

962
01:07:29.599 --> 01:07:32.199
been years of kind of its happened
when I was there. My checks were

963
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:35.280
being signed by the league when I
was there, you know, So I

964
01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:40.360
think when you look at the whole
situation there, they've tried and it doesn't

965
01:07:40.360 --> 01:07:43.719
seem like it's working. You played
for Wayne Gretzky down there, didn't You

966
01:07:43.880 --> 01:07:46.159
ed? And I did? Yeah? What was that? Like? That

967
01:07:46.360 --> 01:07:49.599
was cool? I mean, you
know, I you know, obviously playing

968
01:07:49.599 --> 01:07:54.360
against Wayne and then him kind of
picking me to playing the Olympic team was

969
01:07:54.400 --> 01:07:59.320
pretty cool. And then just spending
a couple of years with him in Arizona's

970
01:07:59.360 --> 01:08:01.079
passion for the game was there.
You know, you can see the guy.

971
01:08:01.400 --> 01:08:03.960
You know, he loved to win
hockey games, and you know,

972
01:08:04.159 --> 01:08:09.119
just something that obviously this didn't work
out for him and the coaching side of

973
01:08:09.199 --> 01:08:12.960
things. But I see Wayne a
lot down here in Florida's down here taking

974
01:08:13.039 --> 01:08:15.840
care of his grandkids, you know. So I run into him here and

975
01:08:15.880 --> 01:08:18.159
there, play some golf, see
him at the game. So he's doing

976
01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:24.520
well and enjoying doing some TNT work. Hey, back back to the Panthers

977
01:08:24.560 --> 01:08:27.479
and what's happening right now. I
think one of the most surprising aspects of

978
01:08:27.560 --> 01:08:30.760
what's going on ed is Sergey Babrowski. I'm not going to feel sorry for

979
01:08:30.880 --> 01:08:32.680
him giving his contract, but it's
been a bit of a tough goal for

980
01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:35.800
him in Florida. Did you think
he was capable of doing what he's doing

981
01:08:35.920 --> 01:08:40.760
right now. Well, we've seen
it before, right you know, he's

982
01:08:40.760 --> 01:08:45.159
won two vez does He's carried the
load in Columbus there and do some spectacular

983
01:08:45.279 --> 01:08:50.159
things, you know for that organization. We see it in spurts throughout the

984
01:08:50.239 --> 01:08:54.920
year, how how great he really
can be. But you look at kind

985
01:08:54.960 --> 01:08:58.640
of how this, you know,
kind of played out with alex Lyone,

986
01:08:59.000 --> 01:09:01.000
kind of running with it towards the
end of the season and really kind of

987
01:09:01.039 --> 01:09:05.399
getting this team to obviously play in
the playoffs. So you run with alex

988
01:09:05.520 --> 01:09:11.199
Lyon early on, and now you
get thrown into that pressure situation of game

989
01:09:11.279 --> 01:09:14.439
five. What about the saving made
on Marshawn, you know at the end

990
01:09:14.479 --> 01:09:16.439
of that game to really I mean
it could have been good night, you

991
01:09:16.520 --> 01:09:21.279
know, at that at that moment. But listen, he's he's you know,

992
01:09:21.319 --> 01:09:24.640
I was just listening to the coach
where he's talking about he's got a

993
01:09:24.720 --> 01:09:28.880
routine right and you know, any
goalies that he was asked you have conversation

994
01:09:29.000 --> 01:09:33.159
with him. It's it's a high
and buy, you know, conversation when

995
01:09:33.239 --> 01:09:36.600
things are going, when things are
going really well. And I think that's

996
01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:42.319
just the mindset of goalies. He's
in a zone right now, he's seeing

997
01:09:42.399 --> 01:09:45.319
the puckwell. And you got to
give credit to the guys in front of

998
01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:49.000
him. They're clearing away second and
third opportunities. They're playing well in their

999
01:09:49.119 --> 01:09:54.079
in their own zone. They're not
giving these great a opportunities Like who've seen

1000
01:09:54.159 --> 01:09:58.199
throughout the year that frankly, no
goalie could really, you know, give

1001
01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:02.520
him a chance on those So I
think right now he's feeling it. And

1002
01:10:03.800 --> 01:10:11.960
I gotta believe if I'm a healthy
scratch and I'm making Tim Banana's ear that

1003
01:10:12.640 --> 01:10:16.119
something inside of me I'm waiting for
my opportunity to come back in. You

1004
01:10:16.199 --> 01:10:19.399
know, he's he's your number one
goalie that you gave a boatload of money

1005
01:10:19.479 --> 01:10:23.920
too. That he's watching, you
know, from the bench and not playing

1006
01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:29.399
these playoff games. So him coming
into that situation and taking care of game

1007
01:10:29.439 --> 01:10:33.479
five, six and seven pretty special
and then kind of dismantling Toronto, you

1008
01:10:33.560 --> 01:10:36.720
know, really frustrating that group over
there, just wrapping up with it.

1009
01:10:36.920 --> 01:10:40.720
Jo VANASKI one more, Joel,
if you don't mind, do you think

1010
01:10:40.840 --> 01:10:43.800
the Cannocks, as we talk about
one of your other former teams, do

1011
01:10:43.880 --> 01:10:47.520
you think the Cannocks are on the
right track with Rick Talckett. I love

1012
01:10:47.600 --> 01:10:50.640
talk. I had him also in
Arizona, A good friend of mine.

1013
01:10:51.920 --> 01:10:56.199
You know, I think just his
passion for the games and no nonsense,

1014
01:10:56.279 --> 01:10:59.800
guys. I'm sure, as you
guys know, doesn't take much. I

1015
01:11:00.239 --> 01:11:03.520
think he expects, you know,
excellence from his group and it will be

1016
01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:08.039
learning curves obviously, you know,
but you look at the core of that

1017
01:11:08.159 --> 01:11:10.880
team. You got to keep that
core together and you got to build around

1018
01:11:10.960 --> 01:11:15.880
these star players that they have.
And I think that's kind of the direction

1019
01:11:15.119 --> 01:11:18.720
of this franchise. But I think
him at the helm um is a good

1020
01:11:18.800 --> 01:11:21.760
fit. Obviously footing back there,
who's won in this league. They all

1021
01:11:21.760 --> 01:11:26.279
have won, so they know what
it takes to get the job done.

1022
01:11:26.840 --> 01:11:30.720
And yeah, I can't say anyone
you know better things about talk. I

1023
01:11:31.199 --> 01:11:35.880
think he'll get these guys definitely competing. And then when you add the compete

1024
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:41.720
side to the talent that these guys
have, Um, you know, you

1025
01:11:41.800 --> 01:11:45.800
can do a lot of good things. Thanks for your golf later today.

1026
01:11:45.880 --> 01:11:48.920
What's going on? What's happening down
there? And listen, you know what

1027
01:11:49.359 --> 01:11:54.199
my fault, I'm doing another one
of these at one thirty, you know.

1028
01:11:54.399 --> 01:11:58.640
So yeah, I think just talking
cats right now. But yeah,

1029
01:11:58.640 --> 01:12:00.239
I get my golf in here and
there. You know, I think my

1030
01:12:00.399 --> 01:12:05.119
first couple of years out of the
league, I gulfed myself out. So

1031
01:12:05.479 --> 01:12:12.520
just kind of at home doing doing
laundry, fixing beds. Um. You

1032
01:12:12.600 --> 01:12:15.720
know, I'll just kind of being
that guy where while the misses at work.

1033
01:12:15.159 --> 01:12:18.680
Yeah, fixing beds. What a
life. Yeah, thanks Ed,

1034

I don't know why I'm doing Howard there.

1090
01:16:59.199 --> 01:17:01.439
Howard actually did some baseball. He
didn't Monday Night Baseball and ABC.

1091
01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:06.279
I can see that six five Texas
quarterback drafted third overall by the Titans at

1092
01:17:06.359 --> 01:17:12.439
oh six Vince Young. Yes,
the second part of my clue is going

1093
01:17:12.520 --> 01:17:16.039
to be well it is signed by
Saskatchewan twenty seventeen. Didn't pan out there

1094
01:17:17.119 --> 01:17:20.880
the long list of you know,
the players at the end of their career

1095
01:17:20.880 --> 01:17:25.159
I'll go up to the CFL and
didn't end up sticking around. Well,

1096
01:17:25.199 --> 01:17:28.119
it's funny because well, Manzielle was
the last one. Yeah, well yeah,

1097
01:17:28.640 --> 01:17:31.680
well I'm yeah, I'm among others. People forget Ocho Cinco playing for

1098
01:17:31.720 --> 01:17:38.039
the Alouettes at BC Place, Ye
shadow of his former self totally. It's

1099
01:17:38.079 --> 01:17:41.560
funny that people bring up the greatest
college football game ever, you know,

1100
01:17:41.760 --> 01:17:45.840
that USC Texas game with Vince Young
and Reggie Bush and then Matt Leinart is

1101
01:17:45.920 --> 01:17:49.840
the is the quarterback in USC,
and you think about how fast those guys

1102
01:17:49.960 --> 01:17:54.600
fell out of the NFL, the
quarterbacks, and I mean Reggie Bush had

1103
01:17:54.600 --> 01:17:56.720
a decent career, but yeah,
for the most part, you know,

1104
01:17:56.840 --> 01:18:00.439
and now line Art, Vince Young, the start of his career was okay,

1105
01:18:00.560 --> 01:18:01.960
it was fun. It was,
but I mean again, it just

1106
01:18:02.039 --> 01:18:06.079
goes to show like the lights of
college and then you just can't make it.

1107
01:18:06.439 --> 01:18:11.279
Yep, Johnny Man, I think
there's a documentary coming out on him,

1108
01:18:11.319 --> 01:18:13.600
by the way too, Johnny Man, I think so, well,

1109
01:18:14.119 --> 01:18:16.800
will any of it include anything on
the field, because the off the field

1110
01:18:16.840 --> 01:18:20.279
stuff out, imagine would be fascinating. Well yeah, no kidding, Well,

1111
01:18:20.279 --> 01:18:23.680
I mean they didn't play a ton
of football. I don't know why

1112
01:18:23.760 --> 01:18:26.880
you would do a documentary. Yeah, Netflix, will come on, there's

1113
01:18:26.880 --> 01:18:31.079
a lot there. The trophy winner, he looked like well to some extent,

1114
01:18:31.199 --> 01:18:33.920
looks like well, he looks like
the second coming of Doug Flutie the

1115
01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:39.199
way he played. And he came
up here and nothing. I'm interception bad

1116
01:18:39.279 --> 01:18:44.720
he look, I mean interception after
interception. Hamilton trays and what are they

1117
01:18:44.800 --> 01:18:49.880

tailgating? You go ahead, Okay, where's it? I have no idea.

1159
01:22:15.199 --> 01:22:17.039
This is strange. Go ahead,
I gotta find it. I spent

1160

got it. Go? Is it just

1161
01:22:20.439 --> 01:22:26.439

driving lessons? I'm driving on the Barnett

1162
01:22:26.560 --> 01:22:30.039
Highway heading to work this morning,
listening to yesterday's show, and some clown

1163
01:22:30.119 --> 01:22:33.319
has ride in my ass. I
look in the rear view mirror and it's

1164
01:22:33.439 --> 01:22:39.399
none other than Dawn. I own
the road. Taylor guess his personal limo

1165
01:22:40.319 --> 01:22:45.039
chauffeur as the day off, was
surprised he doesn't have a police escort to

1166
01:22:45.159 --> 01:22:48.279
the studio Double Dion in bell Cara. You know what's strange I was gonna

1167
01:22:48.319 --> 01:22:55.119
say, is that somebody was running
in my tail today, a tailgating,

1168
01:22:55.199 --> 01:22:58.319
and I'm like, who's this guy
in there? We got it's maybe it's

1169
01:22:58.359 --> 01:23:00.920
Deon I'm not sure that's range that
we get that. So you gotta Hey,

1170
01:23:01.119 --> 01:23:04.239
people know you, you gotta watch
yourself when you're driving out there double

1171
01:23:04.319 --> 01:23:08.880
D. Sometimes you'll lose yourself and
you know, like and do something that's

1172
01:23:09.039 --> 01:23:12.359
unsafe. And I apologize for that, but I don't know. I think

1173
01:23:12.479 --> 01:23:16.439
what I think with theyond the situation
might be he was tailgating me and he's

1174
01:23:16.479 --> 01:23:20.359
trying to make up for that or
cover that up by saying that I was

1175
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:25.680
tailgating him. But he's listening to
our podcast and you're on you're riding him

1176
01:23:25.760 --> 01:23:31.279
from behind or you're behind him in
the car. It's tough to you're riding

1177
01:23:31.319 --> 01:23:34.880
the car behind him. Yeah,
And he say he's listening to us,

1178
01:23:34.960 --> 01:23:40.319
he's listening to you and you're right
behind in the car. Believe you cannot

1179
01:23:41.079 --> 01:23:45.039
recover from that? Hey? Anything
else? Have We better change subjects?

1180
01:23:45.119 --> 01:23:48.399
Quick? Uh? Is it just
me what happened in the days of Al

1181
01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:53.560
Davidson giving us training camp reports twice
daily? Someone needs to step up and

1182
01:23:54.159 --> 01:23:58.720
market this team radio and TV talking
about the BC Lions cameos. Donnie,

1183
01:23:58.800 --> 01:24:01.600
I'm gonna say it. I hate
saying this, but there was no media

1184
01:24:01.600 --> 01:24:05.279
at the BC Lions in cam Loops
for the first few days. I don't

1185
01:24:05.279 --> 01:24:09.079
know if they're up there now.
It's the state of our industry. It's

1186
01:24:09.119 --> 01:24:12.199
bad. It's really bad. I
remember going to Lions training camps on Vancouver

1187
01:24:12.279 --> 01:24:15.239
Island. There'd be ten, fifteen, twenty of us. You know,

1188
01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:18.079
we'd go for a beer after everybody
filed their stories. And now nobody's at

1189
01:24:18.119 --> 01:24:21.119
training camps. Rick. It's not
just the Lions, it's the White camps,

1190
01:24:21.159 --> 01:24:25.239
it's the Canuck even the Canucks games. You used to have to fight

1191
01:24:25.319 --> 01:24:31.000
to get interviews. Now it's it's
everything's a whole lot diffriended and interviews are

1192
01:24:31.039 --> 01:24:34.680
made available later on on the Canucks
website. It's just different. I'm not

1193
01:24:35.159 --> 01:24:39.000
I'm not so sure it's better or
or worse. It's just the different than

1194
01:24:39.119 --> 01:24:42.760
numbers aren't there. But when it
comes to the Lions camp or even Canucks

1195
01:24:42.800 --> 01:24:45.039
camp, you don't see the carbage
like he used to. And I'm not

1196
01:24:45.479 --> 01:24:51.000
exactly sure sure why this is very
good Terry from Vancouver. Is it just

1197
01:24:51.159 --> 01:24:56.840
me? I wish Gary Bettman was
the NBA commissioner when the Vancouver Grizzlies were

1198
01:24:56.920 --> 01:25:00.680
here. Give Vancouver twenty seven years
with the NBA to work here, and

1199
01:25:00.760 --> 01:25:05.079
I guarantee we would have a successful
franchise today. The late David Stern,

1200
01:25:05.199 --> 01:25:09.760
who we talked about earlier this week
when it came to the NBA Draft Lottery,

1201
01:25:10.640 --> 01:25:13.520
said before he passed that one of
his great regrets, if not his

1202
01:25:13.680 --> 01:25:15.880
number one regret as commissioner, in
the job he did, the great job

1203
01:25:16.159 --> 01:25:20.039
he did, was that he didn't
give Vancouver a fair chance. And part

1204
01:25:20.079 --> 01:25:25.119
of that was, you know,
the restrictions on the draft and didn't give

1205
01:25:25.319 --> 01:25:28.920
give Vancouver a fair chance to compete. He said it was one of,

1206
01:25:28.960 --> 01:25:32.600
if not his greatest regretst Commissioner.
David Stern fought for Vancouver. David Stern

1207
01:25:32.680 --> 01:25:35.720
did not want the Grizzlies to move. David Stern tried everything in his power

1208
01:25:36.039 --> 01:25:39.920
to keep them in Vancouver. It
just wasn't meant to be. Yeah yeah,

1209
01:25:40.039 --> 01:25:44.760
And along came Michael Heisly and off
they went to Memphis. Good yeah,

1210
01:25:44.880 --> 01:25:46.439

Brandon ad Anita the ad. Is it

1233
01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:32.760
just me? This is from Stephen
Cloverdale. But Donnie, did you not

1234
01:27:33.000 --> 01:27:36.880
promise some Patrick Alvin information? Yeah? And Rick you had that? Yeah,

1235
01:27:36.960 --> 01:27:42.079
Patrick Alvin at the World Hockey Championships. He's really high on Leo Carlson.

1236
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:46.880
Donnie a big Swedish center six three
one night. Yeah Sweedish. Anyways,

1237
01:27:47.079 --> 01:27:49.960
Alvin said all options are open.
If the price is right to move

1238
01:27:50.039 --> 01:27:54.199
up to get Carlson, he'll do
it. It's gonna be a top five

1239
01:27:54.319 --> 01:27:59.000
pick. He says, he will
leave no stone unturned. Yeah, because

1240
01:27:59.279 --> 01:28:01.840
Leo Carlson. You just said top
five, he's he's third or fourth,

1241
01:28:01.920 --> 01:28:09.439
and a lot of them mocked drafts
out there. He's really bullsh on Carlson.

1242
01:28:10.279 --> 01:28:12.479
That's a lot of bull going around. That's what I said in the

1243
01:28:12.479 --> 01:28:15.239
paper. He's really bullish on him. But anyways, you can't move up,

1244
01:28:15.279 --> 01:28:18.000
Donnie. What do you gotta do
to move up? You better have

1245
01:28:18.119 --> 01:28:23.760
high picks, damn good prospects and
and they don't have either. You know,

1246
01:28:24.359 --> 01:28:27.640
Heather in Victoria is just me.
But September in Victoria would be a

1247
01:28:27.680 --> 01:28:30.600
perfect road trip for Donnie and Donnie. Maybe you'd even get some Canucks to

1248
01:28:30.680 --> 01:28:35.760
come on your show from training camp. We have talked about that Canucks training

1249
01:28:35.800 --> 01:28:39.960
camp with the second part of I
don't know about the second part of getting

1250
01:28:39.960 --> 01:28:44.399
any Canucks. I think a few
months ago one of us criticized the penalty

1251
01:28:44.520 --> 01:28:47.199
killed and they've been in a state
US since say hate us, the Canucks

1252
01:28:47.239 --> 01:28:50.119
hated us. I don't care.
We don't care anyways. I don't think

1253
01:28:50.199 --> 01:28:55.319
we're not allowed, like you know, Cannock management of the past. We're

1254
01:28:55.359 --> 01:28:58.279
not allowed to say the word rebuilt. I think we've done that a few

1255
01:28:58.359 --> 01:29:00.560
times on the shows. Yeah,
well, we'll get it. We'll get

1256
01:29:00.600 --> 01:29:03.520
it. Can can I guess one
of these days asked for Victorian September.

1257
01:29:04.039 --> 01:29:06.840
I think we're working on it.
It's it's under consideration. What do you

1258
01:29:06.920 --> 01:29:12.279
got is it just me? Hockey
should be over by now. It's time

1259
01:29:12.319 --> 01:29:17.439
for families to play street hockey and
baseball. I'm I'm I'm used to look

1260
01:29:17.600 --> 01:29:23.279
may. This would be early right, yeah, uh, mid June,

1261
01:29:23.439 --> 01:29:27.000
usually for the end of the National
Hockey League season. Hey, I'm I'm

1262
01:29:27.039 --> 01:29:30.640
watching you guys. I didn't say

1264
01:29:35.760 --> 01:29:41.119

and Carolina. Uh tomorrow. It's lots

01:29:41.159 --> 01:29:44.000
of fun. I probably won't because
