Okay, so we'll keep you posted, folks. 32 00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:35.879 You know, moving on here. As we transition, you look 33 00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.920 forward to something all day or for a couple of 34 00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:43.640 days in the world of sports or anything really, and 35 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.719 we're talking about I'm talking about Game seven yesterday in Buffalo, 36 00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:53.000 Sabers and Halbs, and it exceeded expectations. That just doesn't 37 00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:54.200 happen all that often. 38 00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:54.879 That was just good. 39 00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:59.920 That was a tremendous series. Strange, I mean, lopsided scores, 40 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:03.280 goaltenders pulled just when you think a team is out. 41 00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.200 It's not like something from The Godfather. Three here they 42 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:09.159 pulled you back in. It was so good. Game seven 43 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:13.080 went to overtime yesterday, three two halves over the Sabers. 44 00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:16.360 Will take a look at Alex Newhook's overtime goal here 45 00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:21.199 a knuckle puck And of course, former Victoria Grizzly you 46 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.680 pointed that out two years ago, moments ago before the store, 47 00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:31.319 before the show started eleven of overtime, what fabulous entertainment. 48 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:34.280 I thought the Buffalo Sabers and Elliott Frieman felt the 49 00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.759 same way. I felt the Buffalo Sabers were the better team. 50 00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:40.240 They outshot the Habs thirty nine to twenty five. But 51 00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.879 as John Cooper said, you know, the Sabers won the game. 52 00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:47.439 John Cooper said this after Canada lost the gold medal 53 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:51.479 in Italy. You know, Sabers won the game, but the 54 00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:54.759 Habs won the score, and off they go. Off they 55 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:58.400 go to the Eastern Conference Final against a well rested 56 00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:04.039 group of Carolina Hurricanes, and it's just what I thought. 57 00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.199 There's a million things I found amazing. But you know, 58 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.919 Alex Newhook and look, this is a franchise that goes 59 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.039 back to nineteen o nine. He's the first Montreal Canadian 60 00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:18.599 to score a game seven overtime goal on the road 61 00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:22.639 way back to nineteen ninety nine, nineteen o nine. You 62 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.599 just I would assume, maybe this is naive of me. 63 00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:27.319 Maybe I don't know that much. I'm sure a lot 64 00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.759 of people agree with that, but I just assumed somebody 65 00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:33.800 along the line a team that you know, we're going 66 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.680 back to a sixteen league, had so much success in 67 00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.599 the playoffs. We all know about their multiple Stanley Cups, 68 00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.360 that somebody would have done that, But Alex Newhook former 69 00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.759 Victoria Grizzly eleven twenty two of overtime the first player 70 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.199 to achieve that. Now, also this yak Abdovish, he would 71 00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:54.280 more horrible in game six. 72 00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:57.240 He would tell you that we went back with him. 73 00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:59.599 They go, well, they didn't really have a choice. I mean, 74 00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:03.560 he got there right. So he's an early con Smith candidate. 75 00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:04.800 We're going to take a look at some of his 76 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:11.360 saves from yesterday. Just absolutely fabulous early Con smyth candidate. 77 00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:16.920 After a couple of rounds two game seven wins now 78 00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:20.519 both on the road. The only player to do that, 79 00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.759 the only goaltender and haves history to do that in 80 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:27.000 the past, Rick Ken Dryden, Ken Dryden. Of course they're 81 00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:31.160 wearing the number twenty nine these days on their outfits 82 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.399 because can of course left us back back in September 83 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:37.920 of twenty twenty five. So only Ken Dryden did that 84 00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:43.120 in the past. Also with yakub dobus six road wins 85 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:47.920 and he is the only Montreal Canadian goaltender to do 86 00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:52.000 that other than Kenn Dryden and Patrick Waw. You know 87 00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:56.399 we're talking about cons my trophy winners here, legendary Montreal goaltenders. 88 00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:59.120 He's just absolutely fabulous. So have we've got the clip 89 00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:01.800 of yakub after the game. Yeah, we do, because so 90 00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:05.199 on top of all of this, yak abduobus and I'm 91 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.360 gonna get going to relate all this to the connuction 92 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:11.600 in a second, folks, But jak Abduobush. Also, this is 93 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:13.759 the most important, as you know if you watch this 94 00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:17.439 show enough. No, the most important thing, most important quality 95 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:20.120 a player can have is to be nice to the 96 00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:23.000 media and be a good interview Check him out postgame. 97 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.759 It's been fourteen incredibly grueling games through the playoffs to 98 00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:27.240 this point. 99 00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:29.639 How are you holding out me? Yeah? 100 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.120 Oh I can't play forty more? 101 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:32.040 Really? 102 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:33.560 Yeah? 103 00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:34.319 That great? 104 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.120 Wow? Yeah love that. 105 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:41.560 He's something else. So the playoffs continue Conference Finals, the 106 00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:46.399 Eastern Final Game one Montreal at Carolina that's on Thursday. 107 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:50.519 Carolina hasn't played since May ninth. Western Conference Final Game 108 00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.399 one Vegas at Colorado on on Wednesday. 109 00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:55.360 So let me say a couple of things that Abs 110 00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:57.639 are the youngest team in the NHL to reach the 111 00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:01.319 conference finals since nineteen ninety one. Who did that back then? 112 00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:04.000 The Habs, the Kings in the final, You and I 113 00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.040 they're average ages twenty five months. We're younger than and 114 00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:10.160 the Canucks need to keep an eye on this. Kofield, 115 00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:14.439 Suzuki Slovskowsky, Danmie, Dobbin Hudson. What are they all, Donny? 116 00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.079 High picks? What do you gotta do to get high picks? 117 00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:19.399 Got to go to the bottom of the standings. These 118 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.240 guys are young, They're going to be around for a 119 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.439 long time. They're not going anywhere, folks, The Montreal Canadians 120 00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.639 are not going anywhere. And Alex new Hook I want 121 00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:32.439 to say this, every playoff, remember John Druce, You and 122 00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:36.600 I remember John Druce Washington. Every playoff brings out a guy. 123 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:38.839 But you know what new. 124 00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:40.040 Hooks do Nobody don't expect. 125 00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:42.360 Yeah, exactly. And he's got seven goals through in the league. 126 00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.160 There's three Vegas guys ahead of them, Donny. But the 127 00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:48.160 other one for you, don he had thirty games of 128 00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.399 playoff experience. Want to stand in the Cup of Colorado. 129 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:51.920 It's not like he came out of the blue and 130 00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:53.199 he's playing his first playoff game. 131 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:54.720 But you wouldn't have guessed this. No, you wouldn't have 132 00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:55.040 guessed it. 133 00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:59.040 But that time in Colorado, you know, he didn't score 134 00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:01.040 a ton of points for call it around on the playoffs, 135 00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:03.639 and now Montreal's go to guy in overtime. 136 00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:07.879 Yeah, it's it's quite the strong you say, said Rick, 137 00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:12.000 we're talking about a Habs franchise here, just in case 138 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:14.120 you think if you're one of these people who are 139 00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.600 still around and I think French he actually Francisco used 140 00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:20.720 the word rebuild Thursday press conference. And you're losing the 141 00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:22.959 Sedines and and Ryan Johnson. If you're one of these, 142 00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:26.560 you can't say rebuild. You know, the customers don't like that. 143 00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:30.959 The Montreal Canadians put out a documentary within the last 144 00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:34.199 year or two called Rebuilt. Yes, and you mentioned the 145 00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:39.639 name of Catfield, Hudson, Slefkowski, Demidoff, Kapen, and Evans Gallagher. 146 00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.600 That goes way back, Fowler Adobish. They're all draft picks. Ye, 147 00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:45.600 And that's you mentioned the high draft picks. You also 148 00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.160 have to have confidence in your scouting department that you 149 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:50.800 can come up with somebody like a yak Abdobish in 150 00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:53.160 the fifth round, and then of course you go, you 151 00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.600 go way back, and that's the there's the trade for 152 00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:57.920 the future. You give up a star and Max Patrick 153 00:07:57.959 --> 00:08:01.120 ready for Nick Suzuki. I know it was another regime, 154 00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:04.040 but that was a really smart move with the future 155 00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:06.160 in mind. And then then I'm looking at puck Pedia 156 00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:14.519 today and the players they have locked up, Suzuki, koff Field, Stepkowski, Dobson, Goholie, Matheson, 157 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:19.240 they're all Hudson, They're all locked up. Like you said, 158 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.959 they're not going anywhere's not going a long time. So 159 00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:27.000 great lesson for the Vancouver Canucks provided by the legendary 160 00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:28.439 Montreal Canadians. 161 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:33.320 Another thing I want to say is Lane Hudson Donnie 162 00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:35.519 in his draft here, the Canucks thought he was too small. 163 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:38.679 They thought Coffeel was too small. They thought stan Covian 164 00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:42.320 was too small. It is time to stop skill guys 165 00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:44.480 going in the first round, early in the second. Do 166 00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:47.279 not pass on them because of size. The Canucks are 167 00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:50.159 getting burned in this year's playoffs. There's guys they passed 168 00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:51.440 on because they were too small. 169 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:55.399 Not hurting you say that though they drafted Quinn Hughes. 170 00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:58.039 Wow, Okay, but I'm telling I'm giving you examples. The 171 00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:01.240 guys they passed on being a lane. And there was 172 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.039 a guy in the Canucks, a scout he's not with 173 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:04.960 him anymore, who thought he was never going to play 174 00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:06.440 in the other who was not well, I don't know 175 00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:09.240 his name. Yeah, they got five hundred scouts, but I mean, 176 00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:10.440 come on, what are how. 177 00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:12.399 Are they doing with the scouting department? What's going to happen? 178 00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:15.799 They extended a few of them in the last few days. 179 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:18.000 I imagine some won't be back though. 180 00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:24.399 Okay, So moving on to the Canucks now, yes, uh, 181 00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:27.440 Henrik Sedin was on. It was just it was over 182 00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:29.080 the weekend. It was a long way. How was your weekend? 183 00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:34.240 But oh it couldn't be better because he did nothing. No, 184 00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:39.000 it's two hours yesterday weed eating and cutting the grass. Well, 185 00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:40.840 the kids watched, well, the. 186 00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:45.279 Kids watched you. All right.

One a wedding, oh love weddings, and 189 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:57.080 then two other visits. It was a lot. I'm old. 190 00:09:57.159 --> 00:09:59.679 I kind of just wanted we're both old. Yeah, I 191 00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:03.159 feel okay, I'll trade you any day, buddy, Okay. So 192 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:06.679 Hendrick Sadeen was on thirty two thoughts with the Elliott 193 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:10.360 Friedman and Kyle pekoskis okay, and he spoke on do 194 00:10:10.440 --> 00:10:12.200 we want to talk about Adam Foot right now? Or 195 00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.399 Pat you make the choice? You were high on this. 196 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:16.360 Let's go. Then let's play the clip and then go 197 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:16.799 from there. 198 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:18.279 Which one Adam foote the. 199 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.159 Foot one, the foot one? The foot one's the big one. 200 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.360 We're going with the foot the foot. Okay, So this 201 00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.840 is Hendrix Sadeen Chris Adam Foot right now as far 202 00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.519 as we know, still the head coach of the Vancouver 203 00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:31.679 Canucks after one season that saw the Canucks drop to 204 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.159 thirty second and last overall. So absolutely Henrick, one of 205 00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:38.519 the new co presidents of the Vancouver Canucks, on Adam 206 00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:42.840 Foot's future, How how do you go about making the 207 00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:43.919 decision on. 208 00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:44.639 Your current coach? 209 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:48.440 Yeah, that's something we're we're discussing right now. So, uh, 210 00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:51.840 this has happened. We had a press conference on Thursday, 211 00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:53.720 so we were going through a lot of a lot 212 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:57.440 of different parts of our organization. So, uh, we're discussing 213 00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:01.240 a daily basis here. So that's some that I think 214 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:04.559 you'll hear more of a from next next year, next week. 215 00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:07.799 There you go. So we're gonna hear about this. 216 00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:11.559 We should hear this week about Adam Foot, Donnie, and 217 00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:13.480 you know they can't wait forever. 218 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:14.279 What did Toronto do? 219 00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:16.639 JAKEO wait did about six seven, eight days before they 220 00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:21.159 fire Berubi. Look, I've been told, uh Foot, this could 221 00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:23.720 be fifty to fifty done. Like I'm not hearing it 222 00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:26.840 either way. But boyl boy, Ryan Johnson's going to be 223 00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:29.120 doing a deep dive this week on everything. Like we're 224 00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:32.320 talking about everything. The biggest question with Foot is there's 225 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:35.320 a whack of kids coming, a ton of young kids coming, 226 00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:38.399 and can you teach and develop the young kids? If 227 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:41.279 you can't, if you're willing to, you get to stay. 228 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:44.480 But my goodness, I'm looking at m Karamaki and it's 229 00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:47.320 just not Adam. He goes back to talk it every 230 00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:49.519 time this kid comes up. He's back in Abbasburg in 231 00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:52.919 two weeks. You can't do that with the influx of 232 00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:55.759 kids coming up. Now, there's too many kids coming up 233 00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:58.080 and you can't do what you can't just bring them 234 00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:00.840 up down and playing for a nine minutes on the 235 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:02.679 fourth line and then send them back down if they're 236 00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:03.240 high picks. 237 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.600 But if you you it's on the player it's on 238 00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:08.919 the player. It's on the play keep going on. This 239 00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:12.120 is agent to stop. It's not on the player, no 240 00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:14.960 matter who is to perform. 241 00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:17.720 Well absolutely, But if you're not going to be given 242 00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:19.840 the opportunity and you're going to be sent back down 243 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.639 on Attasburg because you're making mistakes and all that stuff, 244 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:25.399 work with them who who? Just in the playoffs somebody 245 00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:27.840 made a big mistake in the playoffs and right next 246 00:12:27.840 --> 00:12:30.399 ship they went out and scored. Look, you could kill 247 00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:32.480 these kids confident. I don't like what's going on with 248 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:34.559 the Karamaki. I'll tell you that much right now. But 249 00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:35.399 the big thing. 250 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:36.679 With foot, don't you like it? 251 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:39.960 What do you mean? He goes down there, he comes up, 252 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:43.120 starts in the top six, two games later in the 253 00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:45.679 on the fourth line, nine minutes back in Abbey. 254 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:48.399 Sure stop drop. Look at the player. The young players 255 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:51.639 they got from Minnesota who seemed to take a step 256 00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:53.720 when they came up after the Hughes trade, when they 257 00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:55.759 came to Vancouver after the Hughes trade. 258 00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:58.879 Other than bullyam the other two a little bit older 259 00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:01.399 than the Karamaki. Look forget about the Minnesota guys. This 260 00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:04.320 is a conduct draft pick. Karen Mackie's got to work 261 00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:09.000 done exactly. He can't. He's a higher pick. He's he 262 00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:11.480 was a higher pick than him. The bottom line is 263 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:15.200 don regardless of nippicking on on these guys, here's the thing. 264 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:17.720 If you're going to teach and develop the kids, Adam Foot, 265 00:13:17.759 --> 00:13:21.480 you get to stay. There's a whack. There's gonna be 266 00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:23.600 a wave of young kids coming through Vancouver in the 267 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:26.000 next four years. You can't have a coach who's going 268 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:28.440 to destroy their confidence and ruined draft picks. 269 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:30.440 That's the bottom Adam Foot would ruin their car. 270 00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:32.519 I never said that. I never said that. He was 271 00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:36.279 hired in a different situation than the goal post changed 272 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.720 on him. He wasn't hired to develop and go into 273 00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:41.440 a rebuild. He was hired to keep Quinn Hughes and win. 274 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:45.679 How did that end? Don No, it's not his fault, 275 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.919 but the goalpost captain on the team. Yeah, exactly, But 276 00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:51.919 now the goal post changed. Now he's gotta He's not 277 00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:54.120 gonna win. He's not here to win. He's here to 278 00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:57.559 develop and get these guys through the rebuil. It's his choice. 279 00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.720 It's Adam Foot, not his choice. 280 00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:01.600 But yeah, they're gonna ask them are you going to 281 00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:05.240 develop and teach these kids? Okay, but he's. 282 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:06.399 Got two years left in his country. 283 00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:09.399 He can't win. The most likely they're gonna be a 284 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:10.559 lottery team again next year. 285 00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:10.960 Done. 286 00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:14.639 So you gotta They got a guy in house, Manny Maholtre, 287 00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.279 who has done nothing but deal with young kids in 288 00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:20.120 Absbord last two years. I mean, that's the way it's 289 00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:20.720 going to come down. 290 00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:23.759 I think what about the excuse of injuries with with 291 00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:26.679 uh and and the change of direction for Adam. 292 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:28.639 They changed a goal post on them they did. 293 00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:33.120 That's not his fault, that's not his I oftentimes when 294 00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:35.519 you see a new group come in, in this case, 295 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:38.639 new co presidents, I still have to get used to that. 296 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.840 New co presidents and a new general manager. And oftentimes 297 00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.519 you know they'll they'll keep the head coach because it's 298 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:49.600 a bullet for them to shoot. You know what I mean, right, 299 00:14:49.720 --> 00:14:52.039 it's it's it's a weapon for them to use. Well, 300 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:55.759 you know, if they bring in their head coach, then 301 00:14:55.759 --> 00:14:58.360 they they've used that up. So they'll they'll keep the 302 00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:01.519 head coach and then if they's go awry, then we'll 303 00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.360 get rid of the head coach. I just can't see 304 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:09.399 them doing that. Manny Malulter seems like the Despite what 305 00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:12.279 I just said, Manny Malolter seems like the right guy 306 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:15.440 in terms of somebody who not only has done a 307 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.440 really good job of developing players down at Atbosford. You 308 00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:20.840 can say what you want about this last season with Abosford, 309 00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:23.480 they finished near the bottom of the American Hockey League standings, 310 00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:26.559 won the Calder Cup the year before they finished near 311 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.879 the bottom, But you look at the players that have 312 00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:33.879 played in Abbotsford, right, yeah, the season before and seasons 313 00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:35.960 before that, and they did not look out of place 314 00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:38.320 when they made the move to the National Hockey League. 315 00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:41.200 And that's that's on Manny. That's a that's a check 316 00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:45.879 mark in the positive box, a positive column for Manny Malholter. 317 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.679 So I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. 318 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:50.519 But you have to eat Adam Foot's salary. 319 00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:53.679 Adam Foot lost his starting goaltender, he lost his star 320 00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:56.279 defenseman and trade and he's got a number one center 321 00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:59.039 making eleven point six million, who's down to fifty points 322 00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:02.440 a year. So you're I'm not I've never said I'm 323 00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:06.000 backing anyone in this. I'm giving you facts. The goal 324 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.200 post changed on Adam foot and he lost his goalie, 325 00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:11.519 his star defenseman, and he's got a centerman making eleven 326 00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:15.200 six who's down in fifty points like that's why they're 327 00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:17.840 down in thirty second placed on That's the reality, and 328 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:18.200 I've been I. 329 00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:20.159 Think the big question is what you talked about earlier, 330 00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:22.320 is he willing? And there were times where that set 331 00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:25.519 He was clearly frustrated with how the goal post changed 332 00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:28.200 to borrow a football term. As you mentioned, there were 333 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.679 times he was frustrated. But given time and given the 334 00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:34.240 fact he probably wants to stay in the National Hockey League, 335 00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.600 maybe Adam Foote, you know, the frustration goes away, focuses 336 00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:42.200 on the job at hand and things work out. We'll see. 337 00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:43.919 By the way, that's gonna be the focus of our 338 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:46.919 poll question, the waterling dog posting poll question. We'll get 339 00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:50.480 to that in our third segment, along with a whole 340 00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:53.159 lot of other stuff.

I saw the stat 346 00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:13.440 on Twitter that I think the four remaining starting goaltenders 347 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.240 are making a total of seven or eight million dollars 348 00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:19.119 total total in the Stanley Cup playoffs and. 349 00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:21.640 The Vancouver Connects are paying thirteen million next year to 350 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:22.519 Demp going lancing. 351 00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:28.160 There you go.
