Speaker 1: Check Podcasts.
Speaker 2: Thanks for listening to the Donnie and Dolly podcast. Catch
Speaker 2: the show Monday through Friday, ten am to noon on Check.
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna want to hear this.
Speaker 2: Your local sports coverage lives here.
Speaker 1: And the man wearing Dennis Curran's old number six makes
Speaker 1: it too nothing.
Speaker 3: With John Taylor, I.
Speaker 1: Was just gonna say underrated egg, deviled egg and Rick
Speaker 1: Dolly Wall, Now are you gonna go on the coach
Speaker 1: at eight o'clock tonight, Sit down and let's.
Speaker 2: Put it in hears Donnie and Dolly.
Speaker 1: Ten o'clock at downtown Vacouver where the Paul Carson Studio.
Speaker 1: Thanks for tuning in, folks. It's Donnie and Dolly the
Speaker 1: team on Check. Don Taylor, along with Rick Dolly Wall.
Speaker 1: Ryan Henderson is our producer. He's the man of the
Speaker 1: controls our director. The voice of God is Derek Wong.
Speaker 1: Quinn Taylor is here as well. How are you? Yes?
Speaker 1: All is good? Is it Thursday? One more day to Friday?
Speaker 1: It is? That's the way it works. Yes, yeah, Well
Speaker 1: we're going to talk hockey in a second, but we're
Speaker 1: going to go overseas for a moment here to start
Speaker 1: the show, we understand that a new pope has been selected.
Speaker 1: White smoke has emerged from the Sistine Chapel. There you
Speaker 1: go a couple of seagulls wondering what the hell is
Speaker 1: going on? And I don't know if you've seen pictures
Speaker 1: of this, and I don't know if we have them,
Speaker 1: but the crowd assembled there is just amazingly large, I
Speaker 1: guess not amazingly large. It's hundreds of Yeah, it's been
Speaker 1: that way. Yeah, there you go, going back a gazillion years.
Speaker 1: So we were thinking that should the Canucks do this?
Speaker 1: And I hope I'm not insulting anybody here, but should
Speaker 1: the Canucks do this when it comes to the hiring
Speaker 1: of a new head coach? Set up a smoke stack
Speaker 1: on top of Rogers Arena. Black smoke they haven't made
Speaker 1: it comes out they haven't made a decision yet. They
Speaker 1: make a decision, and not white smoke necessarily, maybe blue
Speaker 1: and green smoke, blue and green, something like that. But
Speaker 1: I don't know, is it a chance you're an idea there?
Speaker 1: I mean, is there something that's the idea right there?
Speaker 1: The idea they could generate revenue. Look at the crowd there,
Speaker 1: and there would be people I guarantee you because you
Speaker 1: know a Knuck fans lineups, lineup, can see what you
Speaker 1: want about conduct nation. They love their hockey team. There
Speaker 1: would be people outside of Roger's arena from the moment
Speaker 1: that that situation starts till the very end.
Speaker 4: Days on end, line up line up, the world evolves
Speaker 4: around the Canucks.
Speaker 1: We know, just the thought, Yeah, you could sell tickets,
Speaker 1: make tons of money, souvenirs, that sort of thing. Ryan,
Speaker 1: You're not having any of this. I understand, well.
Speaker 5: And all, I mean I came up with this entire
Speaker 5: thing before the show that you've completely ripped off.
Speaker 1: As I addicted, Well, you know what, Ryan, in terms
Speaker 1: of if we had a rip off O meter you
Speaker 1: you would be losing. Yeah, no, you would be winning
Speaker 1: in a big, big way. I think you could have
Speaker 1: a lot of fun with this. You know.
Speaker 5: Then then we don't want to you know, it's not
Speaker 5: I mean, this is look at those pictures. I mean
Speaker 5: it's amazing. What it means to these people is amazing.
Speaker 5: But I'm just saying I think.
Speaker 1: It would go over the Georgia Vada. Can you imagine that?
Speaker 1: But you see the Blues Folke emerged, they had a
Speaker 1: new head coach. Yes, who is it? Your son?
Speaker 5: Quinn said, maybe you could you know, the steam clock.
Speaker 5: Could it be involved some way, right, because the steam
Speaker 5: comes off of it.
Speaker 1: I mean you could there could be it would be
Speaker 1: easier to generate revenue and everything comes down a month, right.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, do we know that Toyota Plaza opposed to
Speaker 1: gas Town where they you know, true traffic in the way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just a thought, and I know again Francesco watches the show,
Speaker 1: so you know it'll be a good idea, a little
Speaker 1: bit of fun. He watches for sure.
Speaker 5: There's no question speaking of it would be concerning weeks
Speaker 5: and weeks and weeks day after day black smoke?
Speaker 1: The hell are they doing in there? They go? Nothing
Speaker 1: going on? Yeah, going into next year? They have what
Speaker 1: if it? What if it's an intraim head coach, you'd
Speaker 1: go with the.
Speaker 5: Half half smoke, half smoke, puff one puff, half smoke.
Speaker 1: Like you if you're saying blue and green smoke, maybe
Speaker 1: just go green smoke. You know, it would lend a
Speaker 1: new meaning to the phrase put that in your pipe. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it would put that in your smoke's deck and smoke it.
Speaker 4: There's now been three popes in the time the Canucks
Speaker 4: has been looking to build a new practice.
Speaker 1: So again you ripped that off, Rob Williams. Rob Williams,
Speaker 1: did that not, Rob william Absburg, Braiden from Absbury, come
Speaker 1: up with your own thoughts. Braid I did with this
Speaker 1: idea exactly.
Speaker 4: Braiden from Abersburg texted that and the Delaney's Oka turn
Speaker 4: Langley now speaking of.
Speaker 1: The Canucks, one of their candidates for the new head
Speaker 1: coaching job, and you know, maybe maybe this will happen,
Speaker 1: and maybe there'll be a smoke stack installed on top
Speaker 1: of rogers are in and maybe this will happen, and
Speaker 1: the blue and green smoke will be for Manny Malholtro.
Speaker 1: The abbats Ford Cannucks went again last night, three to one.
Speaker 1: They're up too to one now on the Coachella Valley.
Speaker 1: I was gonna see Cowen. Coachella Valley Firebirds second round
Speaker 1: called a Cup of Playoffs. Game four Friday at Abasford.
Speaker 1: The Green clad Baby Canucks can wrap it up if
Speaker 1: they lose that game. Game five is set for Sunday.
Speaker 1: That's anabash.
Speaker 4: That's Nate Smith scoring to make it one nothing. The
Speaker 4: Absford had no shots on goal in the first fifteen minutes.
Speaker 4: Rob Williams had that too. She loves this great net,
Speaker 4: but this is a Nate Smith uh with the goal
Speaker 4: right there and to give Vancouver one nothing lead.
Speaker 1: Well, one of the big stories coming out of this,
Speaker 1: other than the fact that habits for it seems to
Speaker 1: be on the verge of advancing, is that Jonathan Lecermackie
Speaker 1: played his first game in almost two.
Speaker 4: Weeks on the top Here's the assist right here. He
Speaker 4: gives it to Kudrya, who the shot from the point
Speaker 4: gets to everybody, Amaze the players, Lacara Maki on the
Speaker 4: top line with Sasan and bangs last night. So after
Speaker 4: a couple of healthy scratches, here's the other one for you.
Speaker 1: Don okay, let me stop. You're out there because you
Speaker 1: hear conflicting things healthy scratch or is this the recovery?
Speaker 1: Was it the recovery from oral surgery? I'm telling you
Speaker 1: he is open. Why do you get up? Said that?
Speaker 1: But because I've told you a hundred times and he
Speaker 1: is okay from the dental surgery. He played a ton
Speaker 1: of games after the dental surgery. You know, it's not
Speaker 1: like he just stopped playing because he had an abscess. Too.
Speaker 1: I'm just asking. No, it seems strange that he would
Speaker 1: go from being a healthy scratch to what you just said.
Speaker 1: The first line.
Speaker 4: The first line sasan and bangs last night the Maxisan.
Speaker 4: But anyways, here's the good thing for Lakara Mackie. Guess
Speaker 4: who was in attendance last night. Jim Rutherford, Patrick Alvin,
Speaker 4: the big shots, the big dudes, they're all.
Speaker 1: Emily cast On gay and so they all went out
Speaker 1: last night. And you know what after the game, look
Speaker 1: about Well, maybe isn't there a red Robin in Abmosford? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure they went to the Red Robin afterwards. It's
Speaker 1: not okay to go to Red Robins. There's not a
Speaker 1: red Robin and it's okay to go what's wrong with
Speaker 1: red Robins. There's one in Bellingham at the be There
Speaker 1: is one at atmosphd My bad. There. You go right
Speaker 1: at this club right off the highway, the high Street
Speaker 1: area there there.
Speaker 4: Fries at Red Robin are massive, massive fries do well.
Speaker 4: Bottomless too, oh bottomless and massive huge. They're more almost
Speaker 4: wedges the.
Speaker 1: Tim Orton's wedges.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, they're not as thick, but they're very very good.
Speaker 5: Red Robin though, used to be like a Kitschy family
Speaker 5: place and now it's like scruced up. Remember they used
Speaker 5: to have like the train going around well the first day,
Speaker 5: if it was your birthday, they'd sing Happy Birthday to
Speaker 5: a lot of rest.
Speaker 1: But they got that fun little song half you know,
Speaker 1: like a birthday. How many times did you go there?
Speaker 5: Because I tell you we when we were there recently,
Speaker 5: like six months ago, the Langley one.
Speaker 1: They did it.
Speaker 5: They did a happy birthday for someone and Max was
Speaker 5: just amazed. And then the Robin came out in.
Speaker 1: The costume that free did freak come out? No, No,
Speaker 1: he was cool with it. It's it's like a harder
Speaker 1: stand that Robin came out in the costume last night
Speaker 1: and he got scared. Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 5: They didn't go to Red Robin though, by just I
Speaker 5: just he said did they go out?
Speaker 1: And I said, well, there's probably not there, Okay, they
Speaker 1: probably maybe not.
Speaker 5: Maybe it's so unexpected they did it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it depends on their expanse account.
Speaker 5: Right, they're all going through the McDonald's drive through after
Speaker 5: the game, so there's only.
Speaker 1: Have Okay, back to Manny Mahultre, who's obviously a candidate
Speaker 1: and become head coach. The next head coach of the
Speaker 1: Vancouver Canucks. We got this clip right here. He is
Speaker 1: post game in the wake of amas Thur's three to
Speaker 1: one win over Coachella.
Speaker 6: The overall game we played it was very, very much
Speaker 6: like we've done all year. It was by committee. We
Speaker 6: had contributions up and down the lineup, throughout different swings,
Speaker 6: the momentum swings in the game. We had different people
Speaker 6: able to control play for us. Systematically, we did a
Speaker 6: much better job of limiting their transition. Obviously, they started
Speaker 6: real hot coming out with I think the shots are
Speaker 6: seven nothing at one point, but our overall ability to
Speaker 6: capitalize when the opportunities were there and stay with it
Speaker 6: to the end was a big factor for us.
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is going to lead to our waddling
Speaker 1: dog a pull question we'll get. We'll get to that
Speaker 1: in a second. But you listen to that guy talk, yeah,
Speaker 1: and you see what's happening in Abbotsford, not just what's
Speaker 1: happening in Abbotsford in terms of their success on the ice.
Speaker 1: And I know we talked about this earlier in the week,
Speaker 1: but all those Abbotsford players who came up to the
Speaker 1: NHL level with the Vancouver Connection and looked just fine.
Speaker 1: They performed very very well. So it seems like that
Speaker 1: development model, led by many Malholtre and others, is working
Speaker 1: very very well. You tell me, just listening to him,
Speaker 1: tell you that guy's not ready for the National Hockey
Speaker 1: League at the very least, he's close. He's close. You
Speaker 1: want to I can't. I I it's it's interesting because
Speaker 1: I don't think you want to lose that guy. And
Speaker 1: again I know I talked about this. You don't want
Speaker 1: to lose that guy if he's not the new head coach.
Speaker 1: Did they lose him a year or two down the
Speaker 1: road to someone else? See an interesting kind of a
Speaker 1: pleasant problem for the coming.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, you got a good guy in the system. Keep
Speaker 4: them bottom line.
Speaker 1: Wattling Dog pole question. Visit one of Victoria's favorite pubs
Speaker 1: where you can enjoy twenty taps and twenty screens your
Speaker 1: home for the Canucks in UFC. Come sit and stay
Speaker 1: at the Wattling Dog Today. Rick Ryan got her up.
Speaker 1: The Wattling Dog pop pole question.
Speaker 4: Is Manny Mahultra is a one successful season in Avisbord
Speaker 4: enough to make him the next Canucks head coach. Forty
Speaker 4: one percent say yes, but fifty nine percent say no.
Speaker 4: Over seven almost eight hundred votes already. And one of
Speaker 4: the things that will dictate Mahultra is again it comes
Speaker 4: back to the owner and salary. You think, so, yeah, Donny,
Speaker 4: he's not getting four to five million, he's got no
Speaker 4: NHL coach. So if you want to spend two million,
Speaker 4: then you'll go get Manny Malultra. If you want to
Speaker 4: spend they may talk at an offer over four million.
Speaker 4: So if you're not giving him for over four million,
Speaker 4: not a hope in hell. So the money that the
Speaker 4: owner is willing to pay for the head coach is
Speaker 4: going to dictate who you get a name guy, experienced guy,
Speaker 4: or a rookie. I mean, I think what their budget
Speaker 4: for coaching is is going to play a big role.
Speaker 1: But there's no cap on coaches. I know that.
Speaker 4: But the owners still got to make a decision. They
Speaker 4: were given talk at two seven. They went over four
Speaker 4: million for him, right, But are they going to go
Speaker 4: over four million for Manny?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
Speaker 4: But so it kind of tells you what the owner
Speaker 4: is willing to pay is going to dictate what kind
Speaker 4: of coach you get.
Speaker 1: But then again, you can spend a whole bunch of money,
Speaker 1: yes on an experienced a head coach, and he might
Speaker 1: not be as effective as many most Absolutely, again, it's
Speaker 1: an interesting, interesting situation for the Canucks.
Speaker 4: He's got seven years as an assistant coach in the NHL, Manny,
Speaker 4: Rod Brindemore went from an assistant and has been fine.
Speaker 4: Rod Brindemore, in my eyes, is one of the best
Speaker 4: coaches in the NHL Top two, top three. He didn't
Speaker 4: have any head coaching experience before he got the you know,
Speaker 4: Bill Peters left and they moved him up. So you know,
Speaker 4: there's an example of giving a guy a chance, Rod Brindemore,
Speaker 4: and he's been great.
Speaker 1: Okay, So again, Game four Fridday and Abbasford out there
Speaker 1: at the Abbotsford Center lose. If Abbotsford loses, Game five
Speaker 1: is set for Sunday again in Abmospherd.
Speaker 4: And fifty three hundred last night in Abasberg. Not bad
Speaker 4: for you know, Wednesday night, Donnie, that's great Game four.
Speaker 4: They could wrap it up tomorrow night and go off
Speaker 4: to the Western Conference Final. Game four is tomorrow night.
Speaker 1: One person who will not be the next head coach
Speaker 1: of the vankor of a Canocks is Joel Quinnvill. We
Speaker 1: understand that he has been hired as the next head
Speaker 1: coach of the Anaheim Ducks. We'll get into that a
Speaker 1: little bit more. But Rick, we understand Rick Tockett interviewed
Speaker 1: for that job.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been interviewed. He's working on an interview with
Speaker 4: the Boston Bruins as we speak. I mentioned the Bruins
Speaker 4: keep an eye on him. Yeah, they're showing interest a
Speaker 4: big time in Rick Talckett. Look, there were seven openings.
Speaker 4: Every single team with an opening is going to have
Speaker 4: Rick Talckett on their mind. It's not a big deal
Speaker 4: that he's interviewing places he was going to get interviewed.
Speaker 1: No, a whole lot of second, it is a big
Speaker 1: deal that he was interviewed in Anaheim because we were
Speaker 1: told by Jim Rutherford that he wants to move to
Speaker 1: the eastern part of the US absolutely in order to
Speaker 1: be closer to his family.
Speaker 4: Absolutely. And I do say this too. I said yesterday
Speaker 4: that comment by Rutherford caught people off guard. I do
Speaker 4: not believe he ever. From day one, Talckett was not
Speaker 4: going to talk to Seattle and Anaheim and teams on
Speaker 4: the West Coast. I think something got confused in the translation.
Speaker 1: Okay, so we'll deal with that story a little bit more. Obviously,
Speaker 1: there's several several levels to that story. Joel Quinnville next
Speaker 1: head coach of the Anaheim Ducks. That's coming up later,
Speaker 1: along with other items. DTMZ. Is it just me coming
Speaker 1: up in the eleven o'clock hours some big concert news
Speaker 1: yesterday and today regarding the city of Vancouver. But we'll
Speaker 1: get into that at DTMZ. Full disclosure. As our friend
Speaker 1: Bmack used to say, Devontes is going to join us
Speaker 1: just after eleven o'clock. We recorded this interview moments ago. Davontes,
Speaker 1: of course, the pride of Abbotsford. Speaking of Abbotsford, Colorado
Speaker 1: Avalanche defenseman ousted by the Dallas Stars Miko Ranton and
Speaker 1: his old buddy in the Dallas Stars in seven games
Speaker 1: in round one, he's going to join us in Let
Speaker 1: me just say this, this guy's one of the best
Speaker 1: interviews going in not the National Aculete, but all of sports.
Speaker 1: He's just a tremendous interview, very honest. Not a fan
Speaker 1: of the current NHL playoff format, as you might imagine,
Speaker 1: giving what happened in the first round Big Ride The
Speaker 1: Quitter Guy coming up later this hour and up next
Speaker 1: from ts en BC Alliance training Camp. The mini camps underway,
Speaker 1: Full camp opening up on the weekend in cam Loops,
Speaker 1: the Spain of Canada. Far ahand I don't know if

Speaker 4: it from beautiful weather too.
Speaker 1: Okay, Farhand Walt, he's going to join us now from
Speaker 1: tsn PC Lines training camp opening this week up in Kamlops. Farhand,
Speaker 1: thanks for doing this, sir, Are you or are you
Speaker 1: You're not in cam lips, I see, are you going
Speaker 1: up there?
Speaker 3: I don't know yet. I'm going to try to get
Speaker 3: up for a couple of days. But in all likelihood,
Speaker 3: given the fact that the preseason game is going to
Speaker 3: be here really really quick on May the nineteenth, and
Speaker 3: I'm going to be in Victoria for that game and
Speaker 3: I'll get a chance to see all of them and
Speaker 3: do that, then I may not get up to Kamloops.
Speaker 3: But to be determined, certainly the Canduckts have made it
Speaker 3: easier by not being around.
Speaker 1: Yeah, May nineteenth versus Calgary and the Victoria area for
Speaker 1: the second time in less than he far. Ahand we
Speaker 1: asked this of Ryan brig Maiden yesterday Lion's first year GM.
Speaker 1: What's a full training camp gonna do for Nathan Rourke
Speaker 1: versus last year? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Look, I think it can only help him, right, I Mean,
Speaker 3: this is a guy that just went NonStop for a
Speaker 3: long period of time and the one thing Nathan doesn't
Speaker 3: really know how to do is take a rest. Right,
Speaker 3: So even in this summer he has been throwing virtually
Speaker 3: daily right with Rob Williams, either in North Van or
Speaker 3: at the Lions facility and Surrey, so he's kind of
Speaker 3: go go, go, go go, and that's just how he
Speaker 3: is and who he is. So the fact that he
Speaker 3: can actually have an offseason I think is real positive.
Speaker 3: In that time, he's gotten to know his teammates a
Speaker 3: lot better. You know, we saw Vernon Adams have his
Speaker 3: own mini camp right where he pays for guys to
Speaker 3: come in and they get together and they throw and
Speaker 3: they do all of those kinds of things. Well, Nathan
Speaker 3: did that this year, and he got a chance to
Speaker 3: know everybody, and he got a chance to work with everybody,
Speaker 3: and they got a chance to buy into him a
Speaker 3: little bit more right. And there's no doubt Awker room
Speaker 3: was somewhat divided last year. So this whole offseason changes that. So,
Speaker 3: you know, the new system, Buck Pierce getting to know
Speaker 3: all of that, I think he'll hit the ground running
Speaker 3: and it's a real positive. We're going to see a
Speaker 3: better version of Nathan than we did last year.
Speaker 1: Well, we know your favorite team, Winnipeg, you've already picked
Speaker 1: to win the Great Cup.
Speaker 3: No, I picked Saskatchewan.
Speaker 1: Oh really, wow, it's still in the Prairies, but hey, yeah,
Speaker 1: you live in Vancouver and.
Speaker 3: Before the back I picked Saskatchewan to lose the Great
Speaker 3: Cup to Montreal. So just because I'm a big Davis Alexander.
Speaker 1: Guy, well, any team but the Lions. But where in
Speaker 1: your mind are they going to finish in the West?
Speaker 1: And where do you see him in the West?
Speaker 3: I think the Lions will make the playoffs, but I'm
Speaker 3: not going to sit here and predict a home field
Speaker 3: advantage for a playoff game or anything like that, because
Speaker 3: I think this team has a ton of questions, right,
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, everybody's gonna want to compare Nathan
Speaker 3: to twenty twenty two Nathan, and that's an unfortunate comparison
Speaker 3: because that was historically good. But we forget that that
Speaker 3: team was much better, especially at the receiving corps and
Speaker 3: those skill positions. You had a number of guys, you know,
Speaker 3: at the peak of their careers that all kind of
Speaker 3: came together. And Nathan did great things, but he had
Speaker 3: greatness around him. Like I look at this line's receiving
Speaker 3: corps and I see Justin mckinnis, and I see you know,
Speaker 3: I see a couple of others in that group, you know,
Speaker 3: Javon Katoy and Keon Hatcher. But after that, I got
Speaker 3: a lot of questions at four and five, right, like,
Speaker 3: can they significantly get better? Can they count on rookies?
Speaker 3: What was what they're paying Nathan? They're gonna have to
Speaker 3: you know, James Butler, right, I mean he's a complete back,
Speaker 3: but how does he fit into the scheme of somebody
Speaker 3: like Buck Pierce. They've run the ball a lot differently
Speaker 3: when he was in Winnipeg than they do here. Right,
Speaker 3: And defensively, I think they're gonna get better, but you know,
Speaker 3: there's still some questions in the secondary where they're gonna
Speaker 3: be pretty young at the halfback spots, and those are
Speaker 3: two pretty difficult areas to be young at. So there
Speaker 3: are questions. Now, Look, I got a lot of faith
Speaker 3: in Ryan Rigg Maidan, and I've got the same amount
Speaker 3: of faith in Buck Pierce, and I think they're gonna
Speaker 3: get the most out of this group. But until we
Speaker 3: watch for six weeks, I think they're the biggest wild
Speaker 3: card in the Canadian Football League.
Speaker 4: All right, another wild card. The Vancouver Canucks talk its
Speaker 4: names all over the place. They're interviewing, as I said yesterday,
Speaker 4: a lot of American Hockey League guys for the vacant
Speaker 4: coaching job. But the big question we have is do
Speaker 4: you go with an experienced guy or a young guy,
Speaker 4: cheap or expensive? Which way should the Canucks go?
Speaker 3: They should ask when Hughes and do whatever he wants.
Speaker 1: No, you know that's wrong, that's wrong.
Speaker 3: No, Look, I'm telling you that's the single most important
Speaker 3: thing for this team over the next you know, twelve months,
Speaker 3: is to put Quinn Hughes in a position where he
Speaker 3: wants to return and sign an extension. So look, and
Speaker 3: I know the organization is not going to do that.
Speaker 3: I have all sorts of faith in Manuel Houtra. I
Speaker 3: don't want to see somebody who's been through six different
Speaker 3: coaching stops, you know, like a Peter Laviolette, you know,
Speaker 3: because those guys eventually they short shelf life guys. They're
Speaker 3: brought in just to inject something into our team and
Speaker 3: they just don't last. So I don't want to see that.
Speaker 3: So I'd love to see a guy like Manny the
Speaker 3: Wult should be given an opportunity. But I also think
Speaker 3: that there's value in a guy like Jay Woodcroft, who
Speaker 3: you know, has been a head coach before. As we're
Speaker 3: seeing with Travis Green, everybody's better the second time around,
Speaker 3: and you know, he's a guy that understands the division,
Speaker 3: that understands the conference. He's you know, he's He's not
Speaker 3: a guy that's just been recycled over and over and over.
Speaker 3: So you know, I think that there. I just think
Speaker 3: everything's case by case, right, Like you, you sit down
Speaker 3: with the person, you gauge their philosophies, you go through
Speaker 3: the interview process and see where they're at. I think
Speaker 3: Manny would be fantastic in this role. I think he's
Speaker 3: gonna be a really good head coach in this league.
Speaker 3: You don't want to risk losing him to another organization again.
Speaker 3: But there are some guys that have done this before
Speaker 3: that you know, haven't done it too often, and already
Speaker 3: and able and you know, have earned a second opportunity.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I totally agree with you when it comes to Manny.
Speaker 1: And Rick made a good point. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you remember this, Rick, but a couple or last segment
Speaker 1: about Rod Brindham are going from a long time assistant
Speaker 1: to head coaching job. Last time I checked, he's a
Speaker 1: pretty good coach. I don't if you're a kind of fan,
Speaker 1: you don't want to see them lose him to another organization.
Speaker 1: I think there's something special there. Hey, fran what do
Speaker 1: you make of Rick Tocket working for T and T
Speaker 1: this weekend? What are you reading a surprise?
Speaker 3: No, not a surprise, you know. I don't read a
Speaker 3: lot into it. I just think that he's having some
Speaker 3: fun in a place where he's comfortable and gets to
Speaker 3: talk about hockey like this is this is what the
Speaker 3: man wants to do. So is it a reminder to
Speaker 3: everybody else that says, hey, look, if you don't give
Speaker 3: me the right opportunity in the right contract, I got
Speaker 3: a place to go. Well, T and T is not
Speaker 3: going to pay what an NHL team pays. So this
Speaker 3: is just going to come down to whether a place
Speaker 3: like Philadelphia or Boston or one of these places is
Speaker 3: the compelling enough situation for him, right, because you know
Speaker 3: it's not here right and you don't have necessarily the
Speaker 3: chaos and the drama that's associated with this organization. But
Speaker 3: when you look at other rosters, and I'm thinking specifically
Speaker 3: of Philadelphia, you don't necessarily think you got a better
Speaker 3: situation there either. So I think Rick is in a
Speaker 3: situation right now where he is sought after and he
Speaker 3: wants to go to the best place where he's got
Speaker 3: an opportunity to win, and I think he's in a
Speaker 3: rare opportunity in life, and I think he needs to
Speaker 3: maximize it. So if the TNT thing gives a little
Speaker 3: bit of leverage for teams to say I don't mind
Speaker 3: coming back here, great, but you know I think he
Speaker 3: wants to coach.
Speaker 1: What do you think for an you work for a
Speaker 1: Toronto company like down Young Street and then maybe a
Speaker 1: left on Bloor? Where's the leafs prayed gonna take place?
Speaker 1: You have any idea? You must have?
Speaker 3: Oh goodness, you know I'm not a Canada's Team guy
Speaker 3: because of the amount of oxygen that some of these
Speaker 3: teams take. And we know that that team takes an
Speaker 3: insane amount of oxygen across this country, even when they
Speaker 3: don't deserve it. So I certainly haven't liked what I've seen,
Speaker 3: and hopefully it ends sooner than later. I can't begin
Speaker 3: to predict where that's gonna go, although you know, I
Speaker 3: don't mind see Winnipeg do well, just because they're kind
Speaker 3: of the least offensive. You know, Winnipeg and Ottawa are
Speaker 3: the fan bases that the fewest people dislike, right certainly,
Speaker 3: and there might be some dislikes for Ottawa in Eastern Canada,
Speaker 3: but in the West nobody cares. Right, they haven't offended
Speaker 3: anybody staying with Winnipeg, so I wouldn't mind either of
Speaker 3: those teams getting in, but anybody else, thanks, but no thanks.
Speaker 1: And again, it's not about the team. I like the
Speaker 1: makeup of the least him, but people we know, like
Speaker 1: Chris Tanne, et cetera. But it's just the the coverage
Speaker 1: they'll get.
Speaker 3: And it's your fault, your show, Yeah it is. And
Speaker 3: like your entire show, you're gonna have to like Rick
Speaker 3: instead of instead of Hawaiian shirts is kind of Hawaiian
Speaker 3: is instead of that. On Friday, he's gonna have to
Speaker 3: wear a leaf jersey no.
Speaker 1: Before Blue Jays.
Speaker 4: I don't mind the Blue Jays, but I cannot live
Speaker 4: wearing a maple leafs jersey this weekend.
Speaker 3: Go Seattle. How about those Mariners nine straight series victories.
Speaker 3: I hope they just smacked the Jays around all three
Speaker 3: games this weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Blue Jays and Seattle. For people who aren't aware
Speaker 1: of that, Hey, Frian, thanks for this. Appreciate it all right, boys,
Speaker 1: and good luck with the bosses once they find out
Speaker 1: just how much you don't want the Leaves to win
Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup and the.
Speaker 4: Leaf's post game last night. Go look at the Canucks
Speaker 4: post game. Time the Canucks postgame, and then time the
Speaker 4: Maple Leafs post game last night.
Speaker 1: Different place like that in the regular season. I bet
Speaker 1: that's what I'm multiplied by one hundred exactly exactly. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's take a break and we'll update the poll question
Speaker 1: and talk a little bit more about what's going on
Speaker 1: with the national Hokyle Donny Dell had the team on check.
Speaker 4: Our podcast is brought to you in part by birds

Speaker 1: C doc Poul question visil one of Victoria's favorite pubs,
Speaker 1: The Waddling Dog, where you can enjoy twenty caps, twenty screens.
Speaker 1: You're home for the Caducks in the UFC. Comes sit
Speaker 1: and stay at the dog today, Rick Ryan, get her
Speaker 1: up the waddling dog pup.
Speaker 4: Pole question is Maddy Mahultra has one successful season in
Speaker 4: Avisperd enough to make him the next Canucks head coach,
Speaker 4: And right now sixty percent say no, forty percent say yes,
Speaker 4: almost a thousand votes already. So it's hoppening and it's popping.
Speaker 4: But there you go, Donnie. I think from this pole question,
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people are saying they want
Speaker 4: to see a veteran coach behind the bench next year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, although if it's fairly close, is there any chance,
Speaker 1: and we discussed this in the break, any chance that
Speaker 1: Manny Mahultra would already get offers at this early stage
Speaker 1: of his head coaching career from other organizations.
Speaker 4: First of all, the Canucks are not giving any team
Speaker 4: permission to talk to Multra while he's in Round two
Speaker 4: the American Hockey But.
Speaker 1: I do you know what happens? Yeah, but I do.
Speaker 1: I will say to you.
Speaker 4: The word is spreading around the league about how good
Speaker 4: this guy is, and he's starting to get on people's
Speaker 4: lists for sure. For sure, don what he did in Haavisborg.
Speaker 4: You mentioned in the first segment people in the league.
Speaker 1: Notice when you do good work like that on an
Speaker 1: American Hockey League team, Well, teams have taken Notice what
Speaker 1: have we talked a lot about how the Canucks are
Speaker 1: interested in American Hockey League head coaches like Todd Nelson?
Speaker 1: That's it? What about what about guy right under your
Speaker 1: nose in many Mahultra And the thing is that you
Speaker 1: made a really good point in the first segment. It
Speaker 1: was just really interesting. But above Rod Brendamore, who went
Speaker 1: from a long time assistant Karen Line, a difficult situation
Speaker 1: with with Bill Peters, and he takes over as head
Speaker 1: coach and the rest is history. He's got an Adams
Speaker 1: Award and one of the respected teams in the National
Speaker 1: Hockey League for for a long long time. But our
Speaker 1: question is after having one successful season as a head coach, well,
Speaker 1: it goes back though, because he's been an assistant coach.
Speaker 1: It's a significant amount of time. It's a gamble. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you why. They're coming off a horrible year. You
Speaker 1: want to gamble though they're coming off a horrible year,
Speaker 1: do you want a rookie coach. Quinn Hughes might even too.
Speaker 1: Are you gonna have Quinn Heugh's a rookie coach? There's
Speaker 1: so many things in play, Yeah, but anything would be
Speaker 1: a gamble. I mean, I mean, you know, a rookie
Speaker 1: coach is a gamble. It's a gam sure, but soa
Speaker 1: is bringing in Uh you know somebody, Peter Laviolette, that's
Speaker 1: a gamble. And I'll tell you something maybe less of
Speaker 1: a gamble. I'll tell you something else.
Speaker 4: Nobody ever says about Abasberg is the Sadeen Twins and
Speaker 4: the work they do down there. It's not always just
Speaker 4: the head coach in Afriscat, of course, it is the
Speaker 4: Sadeine Twins and their work with prospects before and after practice.
Speaker 4: The Sadeine Twins play a huge role in the development
Speaker 4: of players down there.
Speaker 1: Let me let me read this from the Delaney's Okay
Speaker 1: tire in Langley and Aldergrove Inbox Tom and Victoria. And
Speaker 1: he's not the only one who has submitted something like this.
Speaker 1: One of our great listeners slash viewers, I'd love to
Speaker 1: see the Canucks get coach v office coach off his
Speaker 1: coach off his couch and come back to the Canucks again.
Speaker 1: That's Tom and Victoria and he's not the only one.
Speaker 1: I've suggested something like that, Coach v Yes, any thoughts
Speaker 1: about Elaine Vigno not necessarily coming back to the Canucks
Speaker 1: but getting back to work in the national oculag? I
Speaker 1: think he's done. Didn't he say that he's done? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I think he's retired, right. I think he came on
Speaker 4: our show, yeah and said that he's he's in Florida.
Speaker 1: Now, why didn't I remember that? Yeah? But you you
Speaker 1: dangle enough money in front of somebody. He hasn't couched
Speaker 1: in five six years. Done, he retires, So he retired. Okay,
Speaker 1: what did we just talk about before the show? The Pope?
Speaker 1: This is a really hey, this is a really bad
Speaker 1: comparison the Who their ninetieth farewell to her coming. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sometimes people retire and guess what they change their mind?
Speaker 4: And right, in Don's defense, who did Anaheim hire today?
Speaker 4: A guy that hasn't coached in three and a half
Speaker 4: years retire? But hold of a second, he's been idle.
Speaker 4: He's been idle. Sure, it's been idle for five years. Sure,
Speaker 4: but this guy's been idle for three and a half,
Speaker 4: got back into coaching today.
Speaker 5: But when somebody makes that declaration, right, oh come on, no,
Speaker 5: I don't want to So you you think that a
Speaker 5: guy says I'm done, but hey, if you give me
Speaker 5: a lot of money, I'm gonna be undone.
Speaker 1: Why do I want that guy? Like I wouldn't. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want that. Why would you want that person? Oh
Speaker 1: yeah over that price? Because he's a pretty good head coach.
Speaker 1: Yeah sure, but was it? I mean, like he declared
Speaker 1: he's good, he's done. You think it's strange that somebody
Speaker 1: would say I'm retired and then all of a sudden
Speaker 1: gets the itch to get back into whatever occupation they've
Speaker 1: been involved in, big money or not.
Speaker 5: Of course, the knock fans also have this weird fascination
Speaker 5: of just constantly going back over things. Yeah, Elaine Vina
Speaker 5: was really successful here he was that time is good.
Speaker 5: It's done. Like it's the same thing all these people.
Speaker 5: Why don't we just bring in Biexa La Wungo and
Speaker 5: Burrow and Borough Sham and president that stuff. It's like,
Speaker 5: why do we just you just you can only be recycling.
Speaker 1: They haven't been head coaches, but by people popular player
Speaker 1: just everybody back a popular player. They did that with
Speaker 1: Trevor Lindon and it didn't work as a coopular. But
Speaker 1: it's just it's just a popular former player, and you
Speaker 1: know this is not the time for for Victoria.
Speaker 5: I just think, I mean again, like it's okay to
Speaker 5: just have that book closed and look back on that.
Speaker 1: You could say the same thing, not necessarily in regards
Speaker 1: to the Kinnock organization. If you bring in somebody like
Speaker 1: Peter love La, you're recycling somebody but no ties to
Speaker 1: the organization hasn't retired. That's the big key find. I
Speaker 1: just find it amazing that I'm not sure if you, Philly,
Speaker 1: you know I retired. Oh you know what I miss
Speaker 1: I missed, but we haven't heard anything. That doesn't mean
Speaker 1: it's not possible. I think you would have called him
Speaker 1: up Ryan today. I bet you he'd he'd have interest
Speaker 1: in the Vancouver John and say what's the money? And
Speaker 1: so I don't want that to be I don't want
Speaker 1: done with that. I don't want that. Do you think that,
Speaker 1: Hold on a second, do you think whoever comes here
Speaker 1: is gonna is it won't be concerned at all about what.
Speaker 5: Course of course? But that's a different scenario. You're talking
Speaker 5: about a guy that said he's done with coaching. But hey,
Speaker 5: and by the way, we're painting Elenbino that he'd be
Speaker 5: like this person. And I'm not saying that he is
Speaker 5: that type of person, but I don't want that.
Speaker 1: Look.
Speaker 5: I mean, a lot of people thought Jim Jim rutherfor
Speaker 5: was retired and suddenly that's working exactly exactly, there's proof
Speaker 5: of concept.
Speaker 1: Do you not think that would be a combination of
Speaker 1: the two things that, you know what, I'm itching to
Speaker 1: get back and looks like I'm gonna get paid. Well,
Speaker 1: I'll give it a shot.
Speaker 4: Ye's I haven't heard vignot in any of the names
Speaker 4: I've heard, but if they call them up, Ryan, I
Speaker 4: bet you he'd say, you're sixty three years old, say.
Speaker 5: You know what, and hey, look, Bonus is out of
Speaker 5: a job. He's gonna be able to show tomorrow. Bring
Speaker 5: him in as AB's assistant. Who else was the assistant
Speaker 5: twenty eleven. Just bring the whole band back together, and
Speaker 5: that'll just replicate everything that would happen.
Speaker 1: They don't need a guy retired or you're just anti age,
Speaker 1: you're anti older people. Look you're talking about Joe Quinnville,
Speaker 1: Peter Leviolette. They're not twenty five.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying, when somebody to me declares that they
Speaker 5: they have put the time in the decision to say
Speaker 5: they're retired, Listen.
Speaker 1: That should be the end. It's not. What I'm arguing
Speaker 1: is not about you know, Alyn Daniel coming back, and
Speaker 1: then there could be, you know, arguments one way or
Speaker 1: the other. My argument is that you don't seem to
Speaker 1: get this. Sometimes people change their mind about retirement even
Speaker 1: if you make a big announcement this many years later. Yes, no, Brady, Brady,
Speaker 1: the history of the world has ever changed. Tom Brady
Speaker 1: flip flop within what like a year? Six months? I
Speaker 1: think it was less than six months.
Speaker 4: Even Michael Jordan came back and boom boom, boom boom.
Speaker 1: How long was that? Okay? And that was he was
Speaker 1: a part owner. And by the way, how did that go?
Speaker 1: Not well? He led them in points his first year
Speaker 1: in Washington, the Wizards. Why left? Turn here? Now we're
Speaker 1: talking Michael Jordan's okay? Uh, Joel Quinville, I want to
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more extensively about this. So so
Speaker 1: let's let's let's save that for later. The Leafs are
Speaker 1: they like we talked about this with forehead. They beat
Speaker 1: Florida last night four to three. They're up to nothing
Speaker 1: on the Panthers. These are the defending Stanley Cup champions, who,
Speaker 1: by the way, look tired. And Kentuck he's not one
Speaker 1: hundred percent, Bark. I remember the big hit he took
Speaker 1: in the in the previous series against Tampa Bay. He
Speaker 1: doesn't look one hundred percent. Now that is in Ryan.
Speaker 1: You actually made this point before the show. Gustaff Forsling
Speaker 1: doesn't look one hundred percent. They've played a lot of hockey.
Speaker 1: They don't look the same. The Leafs look really good.
Speaker 1: And it's not just I hate saying this, but it's
Speaker 1: not just the big guns that look good for the Leafs.
Speaker 1: It's the it's the bottom six. You know, Max, Max Pacaretti,
Speaker 1: where's this coming from? He looks audible game in the
Speaker 1: Autawa series. In this one, he's been great. Matthew Matthews
Speaker 1: has looked one of their best players. It's their depth guys,
Speaker 1: and needless to say, led by Chris tane Of, their
Speaker 1: defense is way better than it has been and it's
Speaker 1: and it's tough for knuck fans because you've got you know,
Speaker 1: two of those six defensemen that are playing so well
Speaker 1: for the Leaves right now, Oel and Tanef. They look
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, but the big thing for me is here,
Speaker 1: barb Arrovsky. He's not been good Donnie. He's not given
Speaker 1: the panther. They're taking the advanta. They're winning with their
Speaker 1: backup goalie, don They're taking advantage of a goalie that
Speaker 1: is struggling in Florida, every struggling that much. Done nine goal,
Speaker 1: one reason done, nine goals in two games. They tie
Speaker 1: up the game, soft soft goal right from the point
Speaker 1: by Marner. He's not given them the well okay, but
Speaker 1: still he's not giving them the goaltending that you think
Speaker 1: that's the number one reason. The number one reason is
Speaker 1: they're they're tired and they're hurt.
Speaker 4: Don Nine goals is nine goals and goalie shouldn't be
Speaker 4: given nine nine goals.
Speaker 1: I think this is more about the Leafs. They look
Speaker 1: better than they have in a long long maybe going
Speaker 1: back to nineteen. You listen to you glowing about the Leafs,
Speaker 1: and I tell you you don't think they look good.
Speaker 1: I won't admit it, and I've said a million times
Speaker 1: on this show. Apparently you Tube aren't paying attention. I
Speaker 1: don't mind the leafs. I hate the coverage around them.
Speaker 1: I hate what are It's not all one of the same.
Speaker 1: It's supposed the national networks like like that penalty yesterday,
Speaker 1: the embellishment, the embellishment penalty that was bad with rod
Speaker 1: Re How does he get an If that was the
Speaker 1: other way around, it would be over the play. They'd
Speaker 1: be talking about it. Left right, Look what happened all
Speaker 1: I think I've ever seen. Look what happened in game one.
Speaker 5: They wanted Sam Bennett suspended for the remainder of his
Speaker 5: career in Toronto, and most hockey people said they had
Speaker 5: no problem with it. So you talk about the other
Speaker 5: way around, that was the other way around.
Speaker 1: And nothing and this was everything came out even because
Speaker 1: of the embellishment, the.
Speaker 5: Distance traveled and everything here right, Yes, it was just bizarre,
Speaker 5: clearly hurt and the rest like they didn't lose control
Speaker 5: of the game.
Speaker 1: Barely complained about it, like during the broadcast and afterwards
Speaker 1: and the so called uh you know on the post
Speaker 1: game shows, it was like, what do you that's the
Speaker 1: problem I have? And if they end up you know,
Speaker 1: and I look at I'd look at the situation. We
Speaker 1: look at the way the Leafs are playing right now,
Speaker 1: and again I kept my hat to them. Look at
Speaker 1: the way the Leafs are playing right now. I think
Speaker 1: they if they emerged from this series, and there hasn't
Speaker 1: been a Florida game in Florida yet, I understand. Don't
Speaker 1: jump the gun. There's a lot of I think they
Speaker 1: would match up well against either Carolina or Washington.
Speaker 5: Stop, don't go any further. I don't want to go
Speaker 5: any further because then they get after that that.
Speaker 1: You I give credit where credit is due. I just
Speaker 1: can't Max Patch already playing very well. I thought I
Speaker 1: thought he was going to retire.
Speaker 5: And look at him now, but he didn't retire.
Speaker 1: Well maybe the healthy he didn't announce it. He was
Speaker 1: also a healthy scratch. But he's playing well right now.
Speaker 1: He is. I know, you gotta givehim credit.
Speaker 5: Moments ago, the Ducks officially announced Joel Quinnville head coach.
Speaker 1: There you go, there you go, and we should mention
Speaker 1: it to Nico Ranton back to back hat tricks Game
Speaker 1: seven against Colorado, Game one or a Game one against
Speaker 1: the Jets last night. It's only been done two other
Speaker 1: times in the National Hockey League, one time by Doug
Speaker 1: Bentley back in nineteen forty four. Yes, I covered that
Speaker 1: and I remember it well for this couple of Blackhawks,
Speaker 1: and then YARDI Curry in nineteen eighty five. He's been
Speaker 1: in on every goal the last twelve goals by the Stars.

Speaker 5: to give me an example.
Speaker 1: Oh, there's a lot of people saying way too much leafstalk.
Speaker 1: Uh here we go.
Speaker 4: Good, but they're up to nothing. It's hard to ignore it.
Speaker 4: You cannot talk about it.
Speaker 1: Is it just me?
Speaker 5: Or saying I like the Leafs but I don't like
Speaker 5: the coverage is akin to saying I like McDonald's, but
Speaker 5: I don't like fast food. Ryan and Parksviell. It's all
Speaker 5: one and the same. He can't remove one with the other.
Speaker 1: No, it's not I admire the makeup of their team,
Speaker 1: you're telling me most Canuck fans wouldn't take that leave
Speaker 1: over over what's being trodden out by the Canucks right now. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: But as somebody who's a member of the media, I
Speaker 1: just can't stand that the national networks focus so much
Speaker 1: on the Leafs and the Blue Jet and that they
Speaker 1: might as well be local.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Meanwhile, let's switch gears for a second, your big
Speaker 1: RFE you don't mind. Rick had an update on Tom Vlander.
Speaker 4: Uh, yeah, Donnie, I do. I finally got a hold
Speaker 4: of Orlander's advisor, Todd Diamond. He told me he's headed
Speaker 4: to the World Hockey Championships over the weekend in Sweden,
Speaker 4: don and that's where he's going to meet with Tom
Speaker 4: and his family to discuss options available, which would also
Speaker 4: include the Canucks. Didn't get cut No, no, he got
Speaker 4: cut to He's going to the World's in Sweden and
Speaker 4: he's going to meet with the Willander family to discuss
Speaker 4: future playing and to clear something else up the World Leaderships.
Speaker 4: Don are were teams from all the euro leagues are there.
Speaker 4: They're going to meet with Asians to try and sign
Speaker 4: players for the upcoming season. Most NHL teams also attend
Speaker 4: to see if there might be a euro free agent
Speaker 4: to sign and also watch the NHL players who are competing.
Speaker 4: My read after speaking with Todd is this coming week.
Speaker 4: Upcoming week will be pivotal to the future of Lander
Speaker 4: and the Canucks relationship, so stay tuned. The report earlier
Speaker 4: this week that the Canucks are getting close to signing
Speaker 4: Wilander not hearing that there's still work to do as
Speaker 4: of now. But of course we have to say don
Speaker 4: one phone call can change anything. But this is a disaster.
Speaker 4: But it looks like we're going to get a Wellander decision,
Speaker 4: whether he signs with the Canucks or in Europe. It
Speaker 4: doesn't look like he's going back to Boston, but his
Speaker 4: agent's going to be talking to teams obviously there. But boy,
Speaker 4: if this kid signs overseas. What a black market it's
Speaker 4: going to be.
Speaker 1: For the core.
Speaker 4: Where do they go from there, Well, it's they've lost
Speaker 4: their development. They can't keep an eye on his development.
Speaker 4: He's going to be in Sweden playing pro if they
Speaker 4: go that way. But it's just the fact that we're
Speaker 4: here with this kid eleventh overall first round is just absolute.
Speaker 1: Especially when he could be getting development time and abbit
Speaker 1: service during a crucial time of the year. And you
Speaker 1: nailed it last week when you said this should have
Speaker 1: been a layup. Signing this kid should have been a layup.
Speaker 1: But they've made it awfully difficult and it's just unbelievable.
Speaker 5: I don't understand, like I really truly. And we had
Speaker 5: Steve Worrier on the show earlier this week talking about
Speaker 5: his educated guest. It's like one hundred and fifty grand
Speaker 5: that they are apart. I don't understand, don't I don't understand. Like,
Speaker 5: he's arguably your shining star when it comes to drafted
Speaker 5: players under this regime, He's arguably that your biggest one.
Speaker 1: He and his agent probably know that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, but like, I don't know. I just
Speaker 5: because at this point, even if you get it done,
Speaker 5: maybe it just all becomes water under the bridge. But
Speaker 5: the fact that it's dragged out like this, it's a
Speaker 5: bad look on the organization.
Speaker 1: Again over what we are led to believe is it's bad,
Speaker 1: especially when you look at other players in the exact
Speaker 1: same situation coming out of college who were played, you know,
Speaker 1: have have played for their teams later in the regular
Speaker 1: season in the playoffs. Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Baffling what's going on with Orlander, But it looks like
Speaker 4: we should know next week if he's in or out.
Speaker 1: Good times. The Caducks abasfrad though just fine. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: which they could be even better if they had Tom
Speaker 1: Lander in their lineup. Okay.
Speaker 5: One team that participated in the first round that got
Speaker 5: ousted was the New Jersey Devils. Today Tom Fitzgerald met
Speaker 5: with the media. Is the season wrap up, so this
Speaker 5: is interesting. On offer sheets, Fitzgerald said he anticipates around
Speaker 5: the league it's going to be used a lot more.
Speaker 5: Didn't mention if he will use them, but expects them
Speaker 5: to be more prevalent league wide.
Speaker 1: We're starting to hear momentum on this Halloway. I know
Speaker 1: Louis worked out.
Speaker 5: And I also just wonder if because of the cap
Speaker 5: flexibility teams have as well, right they because usually that
Speaker 5: was the other sticking point. I think some people forget
Speaker 5: you can't just offer sheet a player and that's a
Speaker 5: done deal, Like you have to be able to afford
Speaker 5: that player. If the offer sheet is not accepted by
Speaker 5: that other team, you need to be able to bring
Speaker 5: that team in. So you couldn't just offer the Sun,
Speaker 5: the Moon, the Stars if you were the Canucks. Let's say,
Speaker 5: so this is interesting Tom Fitzgerald saying that he expects
Speaker 5: around the league there's gonna be more offer sheets. We'll
Speaker 5: see if it comes to fruition, because like I say,
Speaker 5: sometimes we hear this and then the summer goes by
Speaker 5: and we don't get a single one. But it definitely
Speaker 5: seems like you're right, Donny. The turning point with the
Speaker 5: Blues and the Oilers last year, those two players and
Speaker 5: how key they were. I wonder if it actually happened.
Speaker 3: And going.
Speaker 4: With Carolina, yes, yes, but those two guys were it
Speaker 4: was low salary. The big one everyone's talking about is
Speaker 4: Matthew Knys. That's the guy if you got.
Speaker 1: The box who whoa too much leafs talk, no more
Speaker 1: leaf sock.
Speaker 4: But you pick a team in cap issues, and then
Speaker 4: you go and get that guy, and and the Leafs
Speaker 4: and Marner and Tavares are UFAs. Yeah, you know, so
Speaker 4: you could really screw Toronto by offer shooting Matthew and.
Speaker 1: I but at the same time going down, Well, Tavares'
Speaker 1: price might go down.
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be where's but he's not gonna be
Speaker 4: one million, no, no, no, A good year sure, but
Speaker 4: he'll be six seven million.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, Marner's probably gone. I would think the other
Speaker 5: thing you think, I mean, well, thirteen million. Yeah, you
Speaker 5: might get thirteen million elsewhere.
Speaker 1: Same as what you wanted Peterson signed for. Here, man,
Speaker 1: what's Matthews? Isn't he at thirteen? Isn't Matthew Matthews is
Speaker 1: at thirteen thirteen five or something in that neighborhood?
Speaker 5: Can you have two players making that much? I know
Speaker 5: the CAP's going up, but I don't know the other thing.
Speaker 5: Fitzgerald said, how about this, I'd like to think Jack
Speaker 5: shoulders issues, shoulder issues.
Speaker 1: Are behind him.
Speaker 5: Regarding Jack Hughes, Jack knows the work that is ahead
Speaker 5: of him, strength wise and body makeup. It's almost a
Speaker 5: bit of a shot. He's calling Jack WEEKILM. But he's
Speaker 5: coming off an injury.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 5: This is a slight I think Jack, if he's smart,
Speaker 5: he asks out. Your GM just publicly slighted you, Ryan,
Speaker 5: calling you soft and weak. If I'm Jack Hughes, I
Speaker 5: ask out, I get soft and weak out of that.
Speaker 5: I'm just having some fun.
Speaker 1: Okay. See, we can't have fun anymore in this world.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying I read this and I thought, Look,
Speaker 5: the GM says he's soft.
Speaker 1: If I'm Jack, I'd go that's disrespectful. That is get
Speaker 1: me out of town automatically. The way you look at
Speaker 1: something like this because you live in a Vancouver glass affect.
Speaker 1: You know what has been said about a certain star
Speaker 1: player here.
Speaker 5: Well there's that as well in AKA eleven bing go exactly.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's it for me.
Speaker 5: Coming up next time, we're gonna be joined by Abatard's
Speaker 5: very own Devon Tay's member of the Colorado Avalanche, defensive
Speaker 5: partner of Cale McCarry. He had a heck of a year.
Speaker 5: We're going to catch up with vaugh next it's done
Speaker 5: Tiamont Jack.
Speaker 1: Hey everyone, it's Donnie and Dolly and we're looking to
Speaker 1: partner with your company.
Speaker 4: We have several packages and price points to fit your
Speaker 4: budget and spread the word about your company on the show,
Speaker 4: in our podcast, and on social media.
Speaker 1: We'd love to get involved with your company called two
Speaker 1: five oh eight eight oh twenty two eighty two or
Speaker 1: email advertise at checkmedia dot ca. It is Thursday, and
Speaker 1: all of our guests today brought to you by our
Speaker 1: friends at the Wister Golf Club. The twenty twenty five
Speaker 1: season begins tomorrow, oh Friday, May the ninth. Joining us
Speaker 1: now the pride of Abbotsford, Colorado Avalanche defenseman Devon Days.
Speaker 1: Of course, the Abs ousted in seven games up by
Speaker 1: Dallas in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs,
Speaker 1: and Devon kind enough to join us now. Demon, thanks
Speaker 1: for doing this, sir. How are you?
Speaker 9: I'm doing good.
Speaker 7: I thought we were here just to talk about our
Speaker 7: favorite summer cocktails. But you have to bring up that again,
Speaker 7: huh So all right, let's talk about it.
Speaker 1: Then, what is your favorite summer cocktail?
Speaker 7: Let's go there, mem I'm a red wine guy, uh
Speaker 7: and through, I'm like a season long red wine guy.
Speaker 9: So yeah, when it gets too hot, it's a little tough.
Speaker 7: But you know, you wait, you wait, long enough for
Speaker 7: the sun to go down, and it tastes better.
Speaker 1: And when you say season long, you mean the summer
Speaker 1: season as opposed to the hockey season. I take it
Speaker 1: to do.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, well, you know, I have three kids at home,
Speaker 7: so sometimes you need something just a little bit. Oh,
Speaker 7: we know, we know, Yep, it's uh, it helps sometimes.
Speaker 1: Okay. We get different answers from different players when we
Speaker 1: ask this question during the playoffs. But how tough is
Speaker 1: it for you to watch what's going on in the
Speaker 1: Stanley Cup playoffs right now after what happened in the
Speaker 1: first round.
Speaker 7: Yeah, to be honest, I haven't. I haven't watched, and
Speaker 7: I don't really plan on watching.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 7: I don't watch a ton of hockey in general, like
Speaker 7: regularly season. I'll watch, you know, certain friends of mine
Speaker 7: or players I played with that I'm trying to cheer for,
Speaker 7: But no, I haven't turned the TV on to watch
Speaker 7: any playoff hockey and I don't really plan on it.
Speaker 7: I need the Blue Jays to start doing a little
Speaker 7: bit better to watch them as well, but they're not
Speaker 7: a ton of fun to watch right now, So the
Speaker 7: TV's been staying off and spend more time outside and
Speaker 7: time with the kids and the dog and the wife.
Speaker 9: So it's I'm enjoying that.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 9: If I get, you.
Speaker 7: Know, a little tired of that, maybe I'll turn the
Speaker 7: TV on and watch a game or two.
Speaker 9: But right now I don't have too many plans to
Speaker 9: watch hockey.
Speaker 1: Good luck with the Blue Jays. Say you talk about
Speaker 1: watching friends, Devonne, you know what I'm going to ask here,
Speaker 1: what was it? What is it like watching a friend
Speaker 1: and playing against a friend in Miko Ranton and in
Speaker 1: the first round and all the success he's having.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's hard to see him on the other side.
Speaker 7: And then obviously what he was able to muster up
Speaker 7: against us is you know, something that didn't work out
Speaker 7: in our favorites.
Speaker 9: You know, it's it was tough for us to deal with.
Speaker 7: But a great friend, a great teammates, an Avalanche legend,
Speaker 7: somebody we won with, somebody we bonded with, somebody I'll
Speaker 7: always cheer for, root for keep in touch with. So
Speaker 7: I wish him all the success in the world, except
Speaker 7: when he's playing against us. And you know, fortunately for him,
Speaker 7: he had a good series against us, and unfortunately for us.
Speaker 9: So yeah, we got to move on. And I'm happy.
Speaker 7: He's in a great place and he's he's happy and
Speaker 7: has his long term extension and has that kind of
Speaker 7: security for him moving forward.
Speaker 1: I don't know how much. Yeah, you want to say, Devon,
Speaker 1: but did you understand what your organization was doing when
Speaker 1: it dealt Miko.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 7: I think in hindsight, we're still we were a deeper
Speaker 7: team than we were before last season. Starting that season,
Speaker 7: we were not a deep team, and I think, you know,
Speaker 7: our management organization did a great job of making us
Speaker 7: a team with a lot of depth, center depth, depth,
Speaker 7: you know, reworked our goaltending situation to make that a
Speaker 7: big positive for us. So we felt like we were
Speaker 7: in a great spot to go on a long playoff run,
Speaker 7: and unfortunately, you play one of the best teams in
Speaker 7: the league in the first round, and it's tough. It's
Speaker 7: hard to win. That's what makes winning so much fun
Speaker 7: in the NHL is you understand how hard it is
Speaker 7: to win and how hard every guy competes on every
Speaker 7: given night to try to get to that ultimate goal.
Speaker 7: And you know only one team can win. Thirty one
Speaker 7: go home upset and frustrated and you know, not satisfied
Speaker 7: with their season. So unfortunately for us, we're one of
Speaker 7: those teams this year.
Speaker 1: A first round matchup between two powerhouse teams, both teams
Speaker 1: capable of winning the Stanley Cup. Most people would agree
Speaker 1: with that. Devon, let me ask you this, would you
Speaker 1: be a fan of going back to the old one
Speaker 1: versus eight match?
Speaker 9: I would?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I think I personally I would. And at
Speaker 7: the end of the day, to me, it doesn't really
Speaker 7: matter too much. You have to play for really, really
Speaker 7: good hockey teams if you're gonna win the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 7: So but for me, it's just playing some different teams,
Speaker 7: getting some different matchups that maybe you haven't gotten.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 7: We feel like we're running into the same team teams
Speaker 7: every single year, and our division is a bit of
Speaker 7: a wagon. It's it's hard to get out of our division,
Speaker 7: you know, with Saint Louis, Minnesota, you know, and then
Speaker 7: Dallas and Winnipeg obviously, but Nashville is a team that
Speaker 7: can really get hot in Chicago's up and coming, and
Speaker 7: Utah is a hard team to play against too, So
Speaker 7: we feel like we have a really tough.
Speaker 9: Division to get out of.
Speaker 7: So we kind of get handcuffed a little bit when
Speaker 7: we have, you know, three of the top five or
Speaker 7: six teams in the league, and one of them has
Speaker 7: to go home in the first round automatically pretty much.
Speaker 7: So it'd be nice just to get some different matchups
Speaker 7: around the league and and you know, see some different
Speaker 7: fan bases in the playoffs as well.
Speaker 9: Is really cool, you know, it was.
Speaker 7: It was a lot of fun seeing Winnipeg last year,
Speaker 7: Dallas was great this year. To see some of those
Speaker 7: others on the West would be really cool as well.
Speaker 1: Devon the Olympics next year. You're at the Four Nations
Speaker 1: one of the top Canadian defensemen. How cool was that?
Speaker 9: That was awesome.
Speaker 7: It was a It was a really good event well
Speaker 7: put on. Montreal and Boston were great hosts, The fans
Speaker 7: were awesome, the hype was great. I think it was
Speaker 7: great for hockey in a time where you know, all
Speaker 7: Star Games aren't really doing it for fans anymore. They
Speaker 7: like to see action, intensity, uh, stuff that matters, and
Speaker 7: and that was something that didn't really have a ton
Speaker 7: on the line, but mattered to players. Just to be
Speaker 7: able to represent the country for the first time in
Speaker 7: a while, so that was that was really super special.
Speaker 7: It's great to be part of it. I feel really
Speaker 7: honored that they you know, selected me out of you know,
Speaker 7: there's probably thirty defensemen in this league that could play
Speaker 7: on that team. So I I just felt super honored
Speaker 7: that I was one of them.
Speaker 1: And Devon.
Speaker 4: Yesterday was the Western Hockey League Banham Draft. You took
Speaker 4: the BC Hockey League Root Surrey Eagles. What advice do
Speaker 4: you have to those kids out there, you know, trying
Speaker 4: to be the next Devon Taves?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I just don't think the work never ends.
Speaker 7: You know, the Western Hockey League is only one route
Speaker 7: to get to where you want to be. Obviously, there's
Speaker 7: the college route, the junior route, the CIS route, even
Speaker 7: so there's there's tons of routes to get to where
Speaker 7: you want to be. It just it takes work, and
Speaker 7: it takes time, and everybody has a different path. There's
Speaker 7: no one single path that leads you to your ultimate goal.
Speaker 7: So you just got to make sure you stay focused
Speaker 7: on your journey, your path, and just try to get
Speaker 7: better every day, and first.
Speaker 9: Off, just enjoy it too.
Speaker 7: Just you know, if you don't enjoy what you're doing
Speaker 7: or enjoy the path you're taking, then and let's find
Speaker 7: a different path or a different career path. Even you know,
Speaker 7: life is way too short to you know, be grinding
Speaker 7: through something that you're not in. So just just keep
Speaker 7: enjoying it, have fun playing the game, have fun competing,
Speaker 7: have fun getting better every day, and success will come.
Speaker 4: We have a great defenseman here named Quinn Hughes. But
Speaker 4: you get to play with a great defenseman every night,
Speaker 4: Colorado Cale mccarr.
Speaker 1: How is it? How is it playing with him?
Speaker 7: It's it's too easy, honestly, most nights he's He's incredible.
Speaker 7: There's so many good d men his league. Quinn's one
Speaker 7: of them. They're they're so funded. Watch they're so dynamic
Speaker 7: and how they skate and how they see the ice
Speaker 7: and and Kale's the best of the best. I think
Speaker 7: he's the best player in the league in my opinion.
Speaker 7: How he could dominate a game through and through defensively, offensively,
Speaker 7: just controlling the play with his skating and his speed
Speaker 7: is something that is hard to match and teams have
Speaker 7: a tough time matching up against it. And I just
Speaker 7: get to sit back and watch him and every time
Speaker 7: that his his blade is on the ice and he's
Speaker 7: got a little bit of room, I try to put
Speaker 7: it on there and just sit back and watch. If
Speaker 7: I had a couple hole there, I just sit there
Speaker 7: and have a coffee while watching him because he just
Speaker 7: makes my job so much easier.
Speaker 1: Clearly, you've got a few years left in your contract.
Speaker 1: You don't want Sachic to know your job's easy, Devonne.
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, well they.
Speaker 7: It's my partner that makes my job easill go, you know,
Speaker 7: it's yeah, and it's just how we play. It's it's
Speaker 7: the group that we have that that makes you know,
Speaker 7: we try to make each other's jobs as easy as possible,
Speaker 7: and our coaching staff does a great job of putting
Speaker 7: us in the right spots with the right structure to
Speaker 7: let us all succeed. And you know, we all feel
Speaker 7: like we're part of it. And yeah, we all just
Speaker 7: move forward together and it's a good team dynamic that
Speaker 7: we have.
Speaker 1: You know, a lot of people these days, Devone, just
Speaker 1: looking at your hockey dB page. They look at plus
Speaker 1: minus as an antiquated statistic in this day and age
Speaker 1: of analytics. But your plus minus numbers have been absolutely
Speaker 1: tremendous plus thirty this season, plus fifty two back in
Speaker 1: you a cup here? How much pride do you take
Speaker 1: in those plus minus numbers.
Speaker 7: Honestly, I don't take pride in it at all. I
Speaker 7: think that that's that isous. Obviously, it's a good stat
Speaker 7: to be a plus in. You never want to be
Speaker 7: a minus and a stat. But there's five guys on
Speaker 7: the ice at times, and sometimes you're on the ice
Speaker 7: for a plus and you have nothing to do with
Speaker 7: the play. And sometimes you're on the ice for a
Speaker 7: minus and you have no virtually no chance to affect
Speaker 7: that play or be part of that play.
Speaker 9: It's just unfortunate.
Speaker 7: Sometimes it's off changes too off a bad change and
Speaker 7: you just get roped into a minus. So yeah, I
Speaker 7: don't know if analytically they have a way to determine
Speaker 7: to take those outliers out of there, But it's I
Speaker 7: try to be a positive influence on my teammates.
Speaker 9: It's when I'm on the.
Speaker 7: Ice and positively impact the game on each and every
Speaker 7: shift as much as I possibly can, whether it's just
Speaker 7: a good stick, a good outlet pass, or using my
Speaker 7: feet to break the puck out and put it in
Speaker 7: our scale guy's hands to let them go to work
Speaker 7: in the offensive zone. So yeah, it's I guess it's
Speaker 7: it's great to be a plus in in that category,
Speaker 7: but at the end of the day, I don't take
Speaker 7: too much skin from it.
Speaker 1: It's it's the age of parody in the National Hockey League.
Speaker 1: You have any idea, do you have a team that
Speaker 1: you feel is an obvious favorite for the for the
Speaker 1: Stanley captain line.
Speaker 7: I don't, you know, obviously, just seeing Dallas, they look awesome,
Speaker 7: and if they you know, they got Robertson back, and
Speaker 7: then if Hayskin it and makes his way back. He's
Speaker 7: such a dynamic player in this league. But you're right,
Speaker 7: it's it's the league of parody. There's so many teams,
Speaker 7: so many tough matchups that they are out there, and
Speaker 7: you know, Toronto looks great from what I've been hearing,
Speaker 7: and on the statue either up to nothing. And you know,
Speaker 7: playing with Martins in the four Nation, he's an awesome
Speaker 7: guy and a guy I always root for. So you know,
Speaker 7: Vancouver fans probably aren't happy if the Leafs win, but
Speaker 7: you know I'm not. I'm not really, I don't really
Speaker 7: care too much about that. I like to root for
Speaker 7: good people that have treated me well.
Speaker 9: So it's root four. So I wouldn't hate seeing him
Speaker 9: win one other.
Speaker 1: Than sipping wine. What's on tap for the off season, Divine.
Speaker 9: A lot of family time.
Speaker 7: My wife's been a superhero for the last six seven
Speaker 7: months of the season, so let her relax a little bit,
Speaker 7: get out and golf a little bit, take care of
Speaker 7: the yard, make sure the grass is looking nice and green,
Speaker 7: molle it when it needs to be, getting the pool
Speaker 7: a little bit, and just have a smile on my
Speaker 7: face as much as possible.
Speaker 1: We're jealous, Divine above and beyond. Thank you so much
Speaker 1: for this, really appreciated all the best anytime. Guys, thanks
Speaker 1: for having me you bet Devontas. By the way, he
Speaker 1: does have three years left in his contract. We alluded
Speaker 1: to that earlier. And for people who don't know, he
Speaker 1: mentioned the Blue Jays. If you don't know this already,
Speaker 1: Devin's been on our show before. And this goes back
Speaker 1: to the ten forty days named after It's not Devinta's,
Speaker 1: it's Davante's named after Blue Jays centerfielder Devon White, way
Speaker 1: back way back in the day. Again, our thanks to
Speaker 1: great interviewers. Want a great kid, great interview Absolutely, I agree.

Speaker 4: Right, get her up the Waddling Dog pup pole question
Speaker 4: and it is is Maddy Maholts was one successful season
Speaker 4: Innvisberd enough to make him the next Canucks head coach.
Speaker 1: And look at this. Fifty eight percent say no, forty
Speaker 1: two percent say yes, almost twelve hundred votes. So there
Speaker 1: you go.
Speaker 4: It's it's actually pretty close here, but fifty eight percent say,
Speaker 4: you know, most likely they would like for the Canucks
Speaker 4: to go with an experienced guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you made that great point in that first segment,
Speaker 1: as I repeat myself about Rod Brendamore, longtime assistant with Carolina,
Speaker 1: takes over as head coach and and the rest is
Speaker 1: the rest is history. And remember Maddy's you know, this
Speaker 1: is in terms of being a professional head coach. This
Speaker 1: is his first go around, but he's been an assistant
Speaker 1: for a while with a couple of seven years. Seven
Speaker 1: years assistant. Last stop Toronto, there you go. Don't hold
Speaker 1: that against him though, Ope, can't see Toronto. Although apparently
Speaker 1: I'm the world's biggest Lease fan. Well, yes, a lot
Speaker 1: of people in the Delaney's inbox.
Speaker 4: Yesterday I was you were, Oh yeah, I get criticized
Speaker 4: for wearing a Blue Jays oh New Jersey.
Speaker 1: You guys always rip into me. Well, rightfully. So they're
Speaker 1: having a good year, oh unlike the Leafs. Speaking of
Speaker 1: Manny Mouhol, try, in case you missed the top of
Speaker 1: the show, Abbotsford Cannucks over a Coachella Valley last night
Speaker 1: three one, So Avertsford is up to to one in
Speaker 1: that series, best of five, Game four. They can wrap
Speaker 1: it up Friday in Abtsford. If the Firebirds win Game five,
Speaker 1: the deciding game will be Sunday again in Abtsford. Jonathan
Speaker 1: Lecermacki comes back and gets an assist yesterday after thirteen
Speaker 1: he missed. That was his first game in thirteen days.
Speaker 1: Yes on the corral, kud riots f goal, nice past
Speaker 1: to the point. Okay, yeah, they pulled a groin there
Speaker 1: could Riots f Meanwhile, one, I don't know if he
Speaker 1: was ever really a strong candidate, but Joel Quinville was
Speaker 1: mentioned when it came to people who might take over
Speaker 1: for Rick Talcket here in Vancouver, Anaheim Ducks have hired
Speaker 1: Joel Quinville to be their new head coach, replacing Greg Cronin.
Speaker 1: Interesting hire Rick three and a half years.
Speaker 4: We all know the Kyle Beach incident in Chicago, but
Speaker 4: Stan Bowman right there with Quinville getting a lot of
Speaker 4: the heat in Chicago for that. Well, guess where stan
Speaker 4: Bowman is done. He got hired in Edmonton, so I
Speaker 4: think it was only a matter of time before Quinville
Speaker 4: was going to get hired. The Ducks said they did
Speaker 4: a thorough investigation into the Kyle Beach incident in Chicago
Speaker 4: many years ago. They did their due diligence, They talked
Speaker 4: to the Nation Hockey League, they talk to the people
Speaker 4: who did the report on the Kyle Beach incident. And look,
Speaker 4: he's back after three and a half years.
Speaker 1: He was ineligible to work in the National Hockey League
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one. Bingo. So he comes back, he's
Speaker 1: been punished, he comes back, I would hope. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if Ryan, if you've heard anything about this
Speaker 1: or if you have rick that Joel Quinnville, but in
Speaker 1: particularly the Anaheim Ducks reached out to Kyle Beach, who
Speaker 1: I understand is in Ebonton working with the University of
Speaker 1: Alberta Golden Bears, and.
Speaker 4: Just so we know that, I'm not I don't know
Speaker 4: that yet, but I do know this. The Stan Bowman
Speaker 4: continues to work with Kyle Beach in Edbonton and continues
Speaker 4: to go to the University of Alberta Golden Bears games,
Speaker 4: and there is contact between Bowman and Beach. So I
Speaker 4: don't know if that's it's really early they just announce Quinville,
Speaker 4: but I think you're going to see more stuff come
Speaker 4: out about Kyle Beach in the coming days.
Speaker 1: And one of the thoughts that go through one of
Speaker 1: the thoughts that go through my mind. There's not many,
Speaker 1: but this is one of them. Yeah, he's sixty six
Speaker 1: years old, Joe Quinnville, He's done a lot. He's been
Speaker 1: He's been a player, you know, solid NHL defenseman, won
Speaker 1: those three Stanley Cups with the Chicago Blackhawks. So sixty six,
Speaker 1: why would you you know, when you want to just
Speaker 1: hang them up. I don't know what his financial situation is,
Speaker 1: but when you want to hang them up and just
Speaker 1: enjoy life. Remember, he was the coach of the Panthers
Speaker 1: just before they got really good or really really well respected,
Speaker 1: and I don't think he wants to go out that way.
Speaker 1: So you can understand why he might want to come back,
Speaker 1: even at the age age sixty six.
Speaker 4: You make a good point that Panthers run their way
Speaker 4: with him. He could have won that Cup two years ago,
Speaker 4: don He could have been the guy that won the
Speaker 4: couple that past last year. Last year, he could have
Speaker 4: been that guy and they went to the final year
Speaker 4: before he had to resign because the bleep hit the fans.
Speaker 1: They did a pretty good job in hiring the next
Speaker 1: guy and Paul Maras, Yes, sold, there's that, but you
Speaker 1: can understand what But again, you hope that they reached
Speaker 1: out to Kyle Beach, either Joel or the Anaheim Ducks
Speaker 1: are both and he is the head coach of the Ducks. Yes, right,
Speaker 1: we should say.
Speaker 5: By the way, Kyle Beach is a Trinity Western associate coach.
Speaker 5: Stan Bowman visited him when Trinity Western wasl Is taking on.
Speaker 1: The Golden You know that makes sense because I know
Speaker 1: that there's friends of mine who have run into Kyle
Speaker 1: at Giants games.
Speaker 5: I believe, yeah, Lang, which was the same building. So
Speaker 5: when he was in Alberta, this happened. The Ducks were
Speaker 5: these to statement Paprobek with these. The statement said they
Speaker 5: talked to all parties involved. They referenced the fact that
Speaker 5: the NHL did reinstate Joel Quinnville. I haven't seen any
Speaker 5: details yet on when a press conference will actually be
Speaker 5: and so he will obviously get asked more about that
Speaker 5: and what his relationship like is now with Kyle Beach.
Speaker 5: But today he was officially hired as head coach.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then also, Ryan, you wanted to show this
Speaker 1: tweet from Emily Kaplan regarding the Anaheim Ducks coaching situation.
Speaker 1: This is something that obviously occurred before we even't heard
Speaker 1: about Joel Quinnville going to the Anaheim Ducks, and certainly
Speaker 1: before today's news that they had hired him.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Emily with ESPN, she followed up Dreger's original report
Speaker 5: about Quinnville and added on David Carl, who was a
Speaker 5: hot commodity out of Denver University, but he re up
Speaker 5: there on a massive contract. She Emily was reporting David Carl,
Speaker 5: along with Jay Woodcroft and Rick Talkett were final candidates
Speaker 5: in Anaheim for that Duck's position. Now, just trying to
Speaker 5: figure out where on the East coast Anaheim is? Is
Speaker 5: it between New York and Boston?
Speaker 1: Stop it? Ryan?
Speaker 4: That was it was some people thought the comment by
Speaker 4: Jim Rutherford. Yeah, yeah, I think that they thought it
Speaker 4: was slip, not accurate.
Speaker 1: I mean it was a slip. I think there was
Speaker 1: something to you. It's not like he just said it,
Speaker 1: you know, and it was it was a one second.
Speaker 5: No, but it was this somehow lost on translation. They
Speaker 5: did Rick say something about going back east, you know? Yeah,
Speaker 5: So I don't know, but The bottom line is Donny.
Speaker 5: Donny keeps saying it, I'm so sorry. If you take
Speaker 5: the job on the West coast, they're gonna look horrible
Speaker 5: because of that comment. The freak can say, I could
Speaker 5: say this and that. Yeah, one down, but there might
Speaker 5: be one that crops up like this La situation. You know,
Speaker 5: that might be an open Vegas goes out. I I
Speaker 5: I you never know, I do.
Speaker 1: I'd be that long removed from winning a Stanley Cup.
Speaker 1: Bruce Cassidy, Yeah about and then Yeattle would be the
Speaker 1: obvious one, I would think, especially with his connection with
Speaker 1: Ron Francis, is still with your exactly got promoted?
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, somehow his buddy hasn't done a great job
Speaker 5: in Seattle.
Speaker 1: But it would just be be like, so he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to move to these coasts, so he left just
Speaker 1: because of the dysfunction of the organization. We'll see what
Speaker 1: happens if that happens. Yeah, darn good for our show.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. Okay, we're good pastime, all right?

Speaker 5: with Mike Madammo and THEO Flury. So he lent me
Speaker 5: for limited time this mini replica Stanley Cup. And the
Speaker 5: reason why he lent it to me is because it's

Speaker 5: they're here coming up for that signing.
Speaker 1: This small little Stanley cup. Yeah, because he's got pen
Speaker 1: to the use.
