Speaker 4: Henderson is our producer. He's the man that the controls
Speaker 4: our director. The voice of God is Derek Wong. How
Speaker 4: are you Lovely? Couldn't be better? What a great game
Speaker 4: that was to watch last night. The Canucks more than
Speaker 4: hanging in there with the top team in the National
Speaker 4: Hockey League yest the Minnesota while the top team in
Speaker 4: the National Hockey League three two in overtime. I believe
Speaker 4: I've said this before on the show, but I've been
Speaker 4: to the Excel Energy Center to watch a game. It
Speaker 4: is the most underrated and Rick Hackett talked about this
Speaker 4: afterwards in the postgame interviews. It is the most underrated
Speaker 4: building in the National Hockey League. It is vibrant. Obviously,
Speaker 4: the people in Minnesota know a whole lot about hockey.
Speaker 4: They haven't had a whole lot to cheer about. But
Speaker 4: it's a fun place to watch a game. And you know,
Speaker 4: pardon the pun, but the energy really came through at
Speaker 4: the Excel Energy Center last night. That was part of it.
Speaker 4: And then there was what was going on on the ice.
Speaker 5: I gutsy character when Donnie, game six of a six
Speaker 5: game road trip, you're playing the top team in the NHL.
Speaker 5: You got no Dampko, you got no Miller, You've been
Speaker 5: missing heronic for three I don't think many people thought
Speaker 5: they would win last night, and one of their better
Speaker 5: periods was in the third period, and you think that'd
Speaker 5: be one of their first they'd be so dead tired,
Speaker 5: and then in overtime, you know, Donnie, they should have won.
Speaker 5: Uh A referee was junk, but UH, just give credit
Speaker 5: where credits due. Uh, This is a well coached team
Speaker 5: done shorthanded and and they came through with an absolute
Speaker 5: wonderful road trip, nine on a twelve points.
Speaker 4: What part did you and not like about the referee
Speaker 4: in the third period? The Peterson tripped on the breakaway,
Speaker 4: the erics and neck breakaway?
Speaker 5: Okay, is that it X no ericsk the head shot
Speaker 5: on shoe goes. What about overtime Garland gets tripped up.
Speaker 5: I know the Canucks got up the ice, but if
Speaker 5: they would have got the power play there, the referee
Speaker 5: was right there.
Speaker 3: Who's the referee down again? Sutherland? That's right? And what
Speaker 3: are the Canucks in southern his last ten games? Oh?
Speaker 3: Eight and two? You piece it together?
Speaker 4: Do you honestly think that Kelly Summer his way to
Speaker 4: victimize the Canucks?
Speaker 3: Fact said it?
Speaker 4: Facts or facts are waiting too in his last ten
Speaker 4: games done and he goes out of his way to
Speaker 4: make the little difficult.
Speaker 3: Those words did come out.
Speaker 4: Well, Actually, you know what we do have and there's
Speaker 4: so much going on today. Oh, we do have an
Speaker 4: example of something that didn't go the Canucks way officiating
Speaker 4: wise yesterday. So hopefully we'll get into that that hit.
Speaker 4: I'm sure what I'm talking not good. It was a headshot.
Speaker 4: Let's get to the hottights and we'll talk more about
Speaker 4: what happened at the Xcel Energy Center. We're going to
Speaker 4: the Excel Energy Center right now, Derek Rock and roll
Speaker 4: my friend with the highlights. Excel Energy Center, Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Speaker 4: Midway through the first Pirie Quinn he was on the
Speaker 4: power play at the point, shot and the goal, sixth
Speaker 4: of the season for the former Michigan Wolverine won nothing.
Speaker 4: Second period, Wild are going to break out Marcus Felino
Speaker 4: left side. Felino returns a pass to Frederick Goudreau, high
Speaker 4: glove on Kevin lancoln and one won the score and
Speaker 4: what they call the state of hockey. Late in that
Speaker 4: Middle stands the Carson Sussi at the left point.
Speaker 3: His shot hits the skate.
Speaker 4: Peterson with the nifty feet to Jake Depress top shelf
Speaker 4: from ump keeps the peanut butter Depress with eight goals
Speaker 4: on the Kaducks six game road trip, eleventh overall, two
Speaker 4: to one. Van Wild despawn early third, Pederson tries to
Speaker 4: clear right to Jake Middleton, and like a young Rick Middleton.
Speaker 3: He shoots and scores two to two.
Speaker 4: We're got all overtime, and early in the extra frame,
Speaker 4: Careal Caprice off springs Joel Ericson Eck in alone on
Speaker 4: Kevin lancoln and Ericson Eck denied by the Lankinian one.
Speaker 4: It stays two to two, dying seconds in crazy sequence.
Speaker 4: Besser post play goes the other way, Marco Rossi two
Speaker 4: on one with capriceoff, Besser back checking Rossi to capriceoff.
Speaker 4: Mess ripples his sixteenth wild goover to the Kaducks three
Speaker 4: to two. Kaducks host Columbus on Friday, oh start of
Speaker 4: a six game homestand uh for the Kanucks.
Speaker 5: Well, Donny, what can the Knucks do? Should they stay
Speaker 5: in a hotel on the sixteen homesteads? Should they change
Speaker 5: keep the same uniforms? What do they gotta do because
Speaker 5: at home that's not the same team.
Speaker 3: Well, here here's the problem. Do you what do you do?
Speaker 4: Here's the problem with the Canucks staying at a hotel
Speaker 4: at least at the very start of this road trip.
Speaker 4: And for people who don't know, oftentimes when a team
Speaker 4: is playing this goes for a lot of sports, not
Speaker 4: just hockey. Oftentimes, when times when a team is playing
Speaker 4: much better on the road than it does at home.
Speaker 4: The idea is the coach will say, or the GM
Speaker 4: will say, hey, how about staying at a hotel. That's right,
Speaker 4: You simulate a road trip, that's right. The problem is
Speaker 4: their their first game is Friday against Columbus on the
Speaker 4: homestand and then Sunday one o'clock against Tampa Bay. Yeah,
Speaker 4: Taylor swifts in town, and I know the Canuck cent
Speaker 4: I know. Francesco, you go on about this a lot. Ryan,
Speaker 4: I always got a lot of money. But did you
Speaker 4: see what hotel rooms are going for this weekend?
Speaker 3: Tell us? I don't know. Oh, double triple, double triple.
Speaker 3: It's a lot.
Speaker 5: And even Francisco, I think with you think the owner
Speaker 5: of this hockey club, who's worth billions, is worried about
Speaker 5: hotel prices. Come on, maybe they could stay at the
Speaker 5: Accent in Burg. That's where we during the playoffs, right
Speaker 5: and the sky trains right there. Or if they just
Speaker 5: have a sleepover at the rink.
Speaker 4: Hey, not a bad idea, Not a bad idea. And
Speaker 4: Taylor's across the street, of course, not Yeah, that Rogers Arena.
Speaker 6: Yeah, although did you see for that wrestling event they
Speaker 6: had the merch in BC Place for Survivor series.
Speaker 3: What like merch like that alone?
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah inside BC Place, which I thought was
Speaker 6: I never seen that done before moving on?
Speaker 3: Yeah, uh let's let's go here. Uh.
Speaker 4: Rick talk it after the game, and you could tell
Speaker 4: post game that well, first of all, you could tell
Speaker 4: that it had been a long road trip, but but
Speaker 4: secondly that he's pretty impressed by what his what his
Speaker 4: guys hap it up to. So here's the head coach
Speaker 4: on a successful road trip ending with a tough loss.
Speaker 7: Like I said, we were solid, We had a We
Speaker 7: just played a solid, solid game. Mean, the guys are
Speaker 7: doing a good job blocking out noise and we're just
Speaker 7: doing it. You know, we're just moving along every game.
Speaker 7: I like the the attitude. I like I thought the
Speaker 7: last day we had some good video. Guys were engaged,
Speaker 7: they're asking a lot of questions.
Speaker 8: So it was good.
Speaker 3: It was good.
Speaker 7: It's as good to get home though. It nine points
Speaker 7: out of twelve. You know, it's a it's a tough trip.
Speaker 8: About the overall style of the game, the environment, it
Speaker 8: seemed like it was pretty physical, not a lot of space.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 7: It's a great billing to plan for great you know,
Speaker 7: loud fans, you know, like our fans. It's it's it's
Speaker 7: a nice venue to plan a little playoff hockey atmosphere.
Speaker 7: But yeah, that's you know, they're in first place. And
Speaker 7: it came down to, you know, one shot.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 4: And he talked about the building and how special it
Speaker 4: is and how underrated it is. And part of the
Speaker 4: reason for that is because there hasn't been a whole
Speaker 4: lot of success. There not a lot of playoff success
Speaker 4: going back to two thousand when the franchise started.
Speaker 3: But there's there's a lot there.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, Donnie did talk its smile, give us a smile.
Speaker 5: You went four to one and one, nine out of
Speaker 5: twelve points. I'm not saying he little grumpy.
Speaker 4: But you are saying he looked talking. What else do
Speaker 4: you want your team is? They just lost Rick. They
Speaker 4: had the road trip four one on one. It was
Speaker 4: said he said, showed me some smile, laughed a little bit.
Speaker 3: Then then you would laugh.
Speaker 4: He if he would have laughed or smiled, he was asked,
Speaker 4: I gotta get the trip. You'd be upset that he
Speaker 4: was laughing, smiling after they lost.
Speaker 3: Not happy. I get it. It was a hell of
Speaker 3: a road trip. It really it was.
Speaker 4: I'll agree with you, but he's not remembering the actually
Speaker 4: he did. But you know, at that time, front center
Speaker 4: on his mind is the fact they lost that game
Speaker 4: against His team played well and they outshot the wild
Speaker 4: They played a very bottom mine though they lost. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna say something here that's not going to be I
Speaker 4: don't think it's going to be that popular. And I'm
Speaker 4: getting older, so you know, maybe not as sharp as
Speaker 4: they used to be.
Speaker 3: A lot of.
Speaker 4: People say that in the Delaney's okay, tying Langley in box.
Speaker 3: Now I understand.
Speaker 4: I'm starting to like Carson Susie.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: As a hockey player, he gets under the skin of
Speaker 4: the opposition. I played twenty minutes last night. The defense
Speaker 4: as a whole has had to step up because there's
Speaker 4: there's no Philip Heroonic hanging around. And he was playing
Speaker 4: his old team last night, Carson Sussie he got an assist.
Speaker 4: I mentioned just over twenty minutes, three shots, five attempts,
Speaker 4: a couple of hits, and and he was bothering the while.
Speaker 4: And he's and he's done that in previous games this season.
Speaker 4: I'm noticing him a lot and there's been look lucky.
Speaker 4: I know everybody's ripped on Susie and Myers this season,
Speaker 4: but going back a few games, I'm noticing him more
Speaker 4: in a positive way. And you'll go ahead, go ahead
Speaker 4: and critical not at all.
Speaker 5: Him and Myers have taken a beat in this year.
Speaker 5: Myers and Susie the pairing, Donnie, it hasn't been good,
Speaker 5: but since Heronica went out, look at the guys who
Speaker 5: have stepped up, and you nailed it. Susie's won. But
Speaker 5: I just love what Noah Juwlson's doing, Donnie. Yeah, look
Speaker 5: at the ice time Branstrom to Branstrom in the other
Speaker 5: guy last night Day Orna, he played seventeen minutes five
Speaker 5: block shots. The Jewlson's got eight block shots. These guys
Speaker 5: and Branstrom. When you're third pair and your bottom guys
Speaker 5: are getting fifteen, sixteen, seventeen minutes, that is a really
Speaker 5: good thing. Now you don't have to overplay Quinn Hughes.
Speaker 5: The blue line last night was tremendous, led by obviously
Speaker 5: Quinn Hughes, but you nailed this. Susie's been better. Myers
Speaker 5: has given your first pair of minutes with Hughes. But
Speaker 5: the guys on the back end have been great.
Speaker 4: Last night, I just like that Sussie's chirping away and
Speaker 4: I've enjoyed from Viking Alberta. I'm enjoying watching the big kid,
Speaker 4: the Canadian kid lately more so than early the season.
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm alone in that, but there's something there that
Speaker 4: there's something there. And the other thing last night, the
Speaker 4: wild was so impressive, the big, fast, talented, your presofs there,
Speaker 4: the leading point getter, Philip Gusterson's so steady in goal.
Speaker 4: It'll be interesting and there's a lot happening today. Later
Speaker 4: on we're going to find out what the rosters look
Speaker 4: like for the four nations face Off Series face off
Speaker 4: tournament that's coming up later Sweden and Finland. Those rosters
Speaker 4: will be announced at eleven o'clock USA.
Speaker 3: And Canada at three thirty.
Speaker 4: Markstrom would be I guess, would he be the biggest
Speaker 4: name I guess amongst Swedish goaltenders. And then, but what
Speaker 4: happens with Gustafson, who's been arguably the best goaltender in
Speaker 4: the league this year.
Speaker 5: Well, he's been there, he's right now. Gustafson's goals against
Speaker 5: average donety you say percentage number one of the NHL
Speaker 5: Canucks found out why last night. This is a good goaltender.
Speaker 5: But Donnie quickly, I expect Miller, Hughes, lancoln and Peterson
Speaker 5: to be the Canucks name today at the Four Nations.
Speaker 4: And yeah, exactly so o'clock as they cater to Sweden
Speaker 4: and Finland the people in Europe, so there they get
Speaker 4: the announcement at eleven hour time, so it'll be during
Speaker 4: the body of the show. Then later on three point
Speaker 4: thirty Canada and the USA, and you know, JT. Miller,
Speaker 4: we understand it's going to be on that American roster.
Speaker 4: Interesting obviously, and all the indications are and we talked
Speaker 4: about this yesterday. Connor Badard will not be on the
Speaker 4: Canadian roster.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he won't be.
Speaker 5: He hasn't had a great season, Donny and uh.
Speaker 3: Eroth van kind.
Speaker 5: I want to see the Canadian centers and see if
Speaker 5: they're all six four six six two.
Speaker 4: Well, there'll be a lot of centers and a lot
Speaker 4: of the centers will have to play on the wing.
Speaker 4: You know, if I caut just take a second get
Speaker 4: away from the Canucks here for a bit. But with
Speaker 4: Connor Badard, I just think there's a whole lot of
Speaker 4: frustration there. For if there's somebody's here here here in
Speaker 4: Vancouver coming back home and didn't perform the way he
Speaker 4: wanted to. But and I'm not saying this is an
Speaker 4: excuse at all, but there hasn't been a whole lot
Speaker 4: of success in Chicago, right, So we'll agree on that. Yeah,
Speaker 4: go back two years before that. He didn't have much
Speaker 4: success in Regina either.
Speaker 3: The Pats weren't great.
Speaker 4: Past they were they made didn't make the playoffs one year,
Speaker 4: made the playoffs the next year. I couldn't have the sequence,
Speaker 4: but they didn't. They didn't win a playoff series. They
Speaker 4: didn't make the playoffs one year, then they were eliminated in
Speaker 4: the first round. So there hasn't been a lot of
Speaker 4: winning for him, and it seems to be weighing on him,
Speaker 4: that would be my guess. Maybe understandably so. But you're
Speaker 4: a pro.
Speaker 3: You have to fight through that.
Speaker 5: Hey, there's a reason why you went to Chicago. They
Speaker 5: were dead last in the NHL. Guess what the other thing?
Speaker 5: We had time to talk about another subject here? Huh.
Speaker 3: Well, I just.
Speaker 4: Want to say this and we'll delve into it more.
Speaker 4: I you know, Park mccarr. I go on Twitter last
Speaker 4: night or probably yesterday afternoon. I see this Philip peronic
Speaker 4: tweet and I'm thinking to myself, this is a mistake.
Speaker 4: They're going to have to correct this. We had time
Speaker 4: for this for two two seconds here, Ryan, if you
Speaker 4: don't mind this this tweet. I'm reading it and I'm thinking, okay, well,
Speaker 4: moments from now they'll they'll correct it. It was a
Speaker 4: statement from Patrick Helvin and Patrick Kelvin announcing that Philip
Speaker 4: heronic On went a successful lower body procedure and will
Speaker 4: not require surgery on his upper body injury. Chronicle will
Speaker 4: be out approximately eight weeks. And of course everybody saw
Speaker 4: what happened in Pittsburgh and they know his history. This
Speaker 4: was all about his shoulder, his problem right shoulder, No
Speaker 4: surgery required, but there's something wrong with his lower body.
Speaker 4: What's up, knee, hip, what's going on?
Speaker 5: So we're trying to figure out that. But the fact
Speaker 5: the lower body isn't a major surgical procedure where it's
Speaker 5: going to be beyond.
Speaker 3: Eight weeks, so obviously it is.
Speaker 5: It is, yeah, so that both these situations are going
Speaker 5: to be solved in eight weeks. And guess what don
Speaker 5: they're National Hockey League players, they play hurt.
Speaker 3: If I told you what J. T.
Speaker 5: Miller has gone through this year injury was, you'd be
Speaker 5: pretty shocked that he's still playing.
Speaker 3: Oh, you're not getting what I'm saying. What do you say?
Speaker 4: I'm saying this lower body situation came out of nowhere?
Speaker 3: That did. You're not surprised that.
Speaker 5: Some players announced that they're hurt. Like some guy did
Speaker 5: that he had tender knighters in his knee. Some guys
Speaker 5: don't announce they played hurt. Last year, Philip Perronic after
Speaker 5: the playoffs said, I wasn't hurt to the point where
Speaker 5: they need surgery, well to the point where it could be.
Speaker 5: But hold it a second procedure. You make it sound
Speaker 5: like you you need to hold a second. It doesn't
Speaker 5: say lower body surgery a procedure. Sometimes these guys have
Speaker 5: a procedure where they just cut it open and go
Speaker 5: down look at what the problem is. So I don't know,
Speaker 5: but what I was told last night that the lower
Speaker 5: body issue is not a major one, obviously because he's
Speaker 5: gonna be back in eight weeks from both but he
Speaker 5: guess what he deals with stuff on the lower body too.
Speaker 5: I gotta give heron a credit. Last year after the playoffs,
Speaker 5: he had elbow issues. He was banged up in the playoffs,
Speaker 5: and that's what he got in the fight with Patterson
Speaker 5: because he didn't want to announce what see.
Speaker 3: I can't.
Speaker 4: I don't give him any rope because of what he
Speaker 4: how we attacked our friend Jeff Patterson.
Speaker 3: I love Patterson no more than anybody else. Finally, you
Speaker 3: don't know that's why.
Speaker 4: That's why you say Kyle Ryan's all upset because I went,
Speaker 4: we're overboard.
Speaker 3: Now we're overboard.
Speaker 4: I went, we went over by two seventh. He's upset,
Speaker 4: Like I said, a lot to talk about DTMZ. Is
Speaker 4: it just me coming up in the eleven o'clock our
Speaker 4: Buck Pierce uh officially named twenty eighth head coach in
Speaker 4: BC Lions history. He's going to join us just after
Speaker 4: eleven o'clock, and around that time we'll find out about
Speaker 4: those Swedish and Finnish rosters for the Four Nations. A
Speaker 4: big ridther Twitter guy later this hour, if he gets
Speaker 4: out of his grouchy mood and up next to talk
Speaker 4: more about hockey, and we want to talk to John
Speaker 4: about what happened last night. John Shannon I'm talking about.
Speaker 4: We want to talk to John about what happened last
Speaker 4: night in Calgary. It was it was gripping hard to
Speaker 4: watch the Gudro tribute Calgary versus of us Johnny Goodru's
Speaker 4: two NHL teams. The family was there and it was
Speaker 4: it was unfortunate, but they did an impressive job. So
Speaker 4: we'll talk to John about that. In All Matters NHL,
Speaker 4: All Matters Hockey. That's next. Thanks so much for tuning in, folks.
Speaker 3: At Menton.
Speaker 4: You have something on Tom Vylander as well. We'll get
Speaker 4: to that in a bit. Thanks for tuning in, folks.
Speaker 4: John's next, Donnie Dolly the Team.

Speaker 4: to two in overtime. More on that later. I'll touch
Speaker 4: on it here is well. John Shannon joins US now
Speaker 4: NHL analyst, a hockey storyteller.
Speaker 3: John, Thanks for doing this, sir. How are you?
Speaker 1: I'm great, boys, how are you very good?
Speaker 4: Tell us why you're in Pittsburgh?
Speaker 5: Cool?
Speaker 10: So tonight in Pittsburgh. Penguins played here last night beat
Speaker 10: Florida in overtime. But tonight is the US Hockey Hall
Speaker 10: of Fame and the Least Patrick Award, and my old
Speaker 10: friend Sam Rosen is winning the Lester Patrick Award for
Speaker 10: contributions to the Games in the United States in his
Speaker 10: fortieth year. Is the voice of the Rangers. His last
Speaker 10: year his voice of the Rangers. So I thought i'd
Speaker 10: come down and support.
Speaker 4: Him, iconic broadcaster in National Hockey League circles. I think
Speaker 4: I've got this right. Matt Cullen and Kevin Stevens, former Penguins,
Speaker 4: among the people going in today to the.
Speaker 3: US Hockey Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4: Hey, John, I mentioned the Wild beating the Cannocks three
Speaker 4: to two in overtime. Minnesota Wild on top of the
Speaker 4: National Hockey League standings. Bill Garran, who by the way,
Speaker 4: is also the GM of the American entry in the
Speaker 4: Foreignations Tournament, does he get enough credit for the job
Speaker 4: he's done, given all the dead money he's got he
Speaker 4: has to deal with.
Speaker 10: I think people are I don't know about credit, but
Speaker 10: I think people are in awe of what Bill has done.
Speaker 1: I mean I think they go, Wow, how can this happen?
Speaker 10: And I think you just have to know the type
Speaker 10: of person that Bill is to understand that he can
Speaker 10: get the best out of people. And he's made some
Speaker 10: good decisions. Now he inherited some pretty good players, Let's
Speaker 10: be honest. You know, Chuck Fletcher drafted pre Saw Spurgeon
Speaker 10: was a Fletcher draft. But at the same time, the
Speaker 10: changes and the patients that Garan has shown and the
Speaker 10: vision that Garan has shown with the buyouts of Pariza
Speaker 10: and Suitor, have put this franchise in good stead. You know,
Speaker 10: they were you know, the Favor trade with Los Angeles
Speaker 10: is going to go down as one of the best
Speaker 10: trades in the history of the franchise because Favor is
Speaker 10: going to be a star in this league for a
Speaker 10: long time.
Speaker 1: So Garan, I.
Speaker 10: Do think he's starting to get credit, but I think
Speaker 10: people are more going, how is he doing this? This
Speaker 10: is absolutely amazing. Knowing full well, next year, guys, they're
Speaker 10: going to have almost fifteen million dollars more to spend
Speaker 10: if they spend the cap.
Speaker 4: Yep John, last night in Calgary tough to watch the Gudro.
Speaker 1: Tribute really really tough. In fact, I.
Speaker 10: Went back and watched it again this morning, just because
Speaker 10: it was one of those nights that will go down
Speaker 10: in history. People who were at the Dome will remember
Speaker 10: that they were there the night that the Gudros were there.
Speaker 10: Sean Monaghan in tears on the opening face off, both teams,
Speaker 10: surrounding the family.
Speaker 1: In so many ways.
Speaker 10: I mean, there are thirteen hundred and twelve regular season
Speaker 10: games on the NHL schedule, Donnie, the game meant nothing.
Speaker 10: With all due respect to the two points Calvary got,
Speaker 10: the game meant nothing. The ceremony was absolutely awesome, was
Speaker 10: covered beautifully, was presented beautifully, and it brought back a
Speaker 10: tremendous amount of emotion I think for everybody if you
Speaker 10: weren't welling up or crying by the end of the ceremony.
Speaker 1: Man, oh Man, oh Man, I.
Speaker 10: Think we have to go and go to the Wizard
Speaker 10: of Oz and find a heart for you.
Speaker 3: John.
Speaker 5: We just got a quote from jim Rutherford this morning
Speaker 5: on the JT. Miller situation and all the outside noise,
Speaker 5: the ridiculous rumors.
Speaker 3: I gotta read it to you.
Speaker 5: Rutherford said, don't start making stuff up on someone in
Speaker 5: his situation. That's disrespectful. People that do this for fun
Speaker 5: or for a living, just go back to making up
Speaker 5: trade rumors. The conducts are not happy. Now there's two
Speaker 5: sides of the story. They haven't really offered up a
Speaker 5: lot of clarity, and we live in a society that
Speaker 5: just loves negative news. So what do you think of
Speaker 5: Rutherford's comments on the Miller situation.
Speaker 10: Well, I'm glad that Jimmy came out and said something.
Speaker 10: You know, too many organizations in sports put up brick
Speaker 10: walls when it comes to information and all of everything
Speaker 10: that swirls around, particularly in the world of social media.
Speaker 1: And all the different platforms.
Speaker 10: And I think at the same time, he's showing a
Speaker 10: great deal of support for JT. And what Miller is
Speaker 10: going through. So it was the right thing to do.
Speaker 10: It was the right thing to say. And it's one
Speaker 10: of those ones where I think we all get a little,
Speaker 10: you know, out ahead of our skis at times and
Speaker 10: start to talk and create content. But for me, from
Speaker 10: the beginning, this was one where it's almost.
Speaker 1: It's off base. You have to stay away from it.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 10: People ask you about it and you just say, I
Speaker 10: don't know, and I quite frankly, I just want JT.
Speaker 10: Miller to be well and to be better and to
Speaker 10: get through whatever he's going through and contribute for the
Speaker 10: Vancouver Canucks.
Speaker 5: Well, I'll tell you one thing else, Ruther, it should
Speaker 5: be very happy with his hockey club. They just had
Speaker 5: one hell of a road trip for one of one
Speaker 5: without demp go without Miller and Eronics miss threes out
Speaker 5: eight weeks. It seems like all this adversity John didn't start.
Speaker 5: I know, he was an easy trip. Five out of
Speaker 5: the six were not playoff teams, but still got to
Speaker 5: win the games.
Speaker 1: Got to win the games. I thought last night was
Speaker 1: a spectacular game.
Speaker 11: Guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I loved it.
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it.
Speaker 10: It was a playoff atmosphere almost you know, to me,
Speaker 10: there was two of the marquee players in the game,
Speaker 10: and Hughes and caprice Off going ahead to head at times,
Speaker 10: uh and and you know, Hughes scores the first one
Speaker 10: and capriz Off scores the last one. So from from
Speaker 10: that perspective, to me, it was an electric night in
Speaker 10: Saint Paul. This this is a hockey team that has
Speaker 10: no problems winning on the road. Now they've got to
Speaker 10: solve the problem of winning at home. And I don't
Speaker 10: I don't know if there's any you know, coaches and
Speaker 10: managers try different things, put the guys in hotels the
Speaker 10: night before home games. I'm not sure anything like that
Speaker 10: would work with this hockey club. But that's the thing
Speaker 10: that I think if you're looking at what's going on
Speaker 10: in Vancouver, you have to say, Okay, how do we
Speaker 10: play better at home and how do we collect points
Speaker 10: at home? Because that's something that has been.
Speaker 4: Like John, I, like thousands of others follow you on Twitter,
Speaker 4: and you had this post on Twitter recently, what will
Speaker 4: the upcoming Four Nations face.
Speaker 3: Off be for you? You gave people.
Speaker 4: Two options, must see TV or a vacation from hockey.
Speaker 4: It over two thousand votes, it was pretty much fifty fifty.
Speaker 4: Did you not think Must See TV would run away
Speaker 4: with this?
Speaker 10: I thought Must See TV would win the day. I
Speaker 10: think by February, must See TV will win the day.
Speaker 10: You know, it's it's only the first week in December,
Speaker 10: and you know, we have other things going on in
Speaker 10: our lives with the holidays coming and New Year and
Speaker 10: and and following all these hockey clubs. So by the
Speaker 10: time we do get to the break in the first
Speaker 10: week in February, I do think there will be momentum,
Speaker 10: you know, I think that that's something that just comes.
Speaker 10: It's you know, it's it's a placeholder, guys. This is
Speaker 10: not the World Cup, this is not the Olympics. This
Speaker 10: is a placeholder for what will be in the future,
Speaker 10: with hopefully a lot more teams than just four. But
Speaker 10: it's going to be great hockey. I mean the two rivalries,
Speaker 10: you know, the Canada USA rivalry, We've seen it, you know,
Speaker 10: flourish with women's hockey with only two teams of any magnitude.
Speaker 10: And the Swedes and the Finns have a tremendous rivalry too.
Speaker 10: So I'm excited about the quality of the game. I
Speaker 10: expect it to be physical. I expected to be fast,
Speaker 10: and I do expect by the time the end of
Speaker 10: January comes and the hype is really going full throttle,
Speaker 10: the games in Boston and the games in Montreal are
Speaker 10: going to be must see TV.
Speaker 4: I don't I don't want to see. I don't want
Speaker 4: to have a vacation from hockey in July and August.
Speaker 4: I don't know where these people are coming from, exactly
Speaker 4: a surprised.
Speaker 10: So the one thing I would say about and both
Speaker 10: of you guys know it on the on the on
Speaker 10: the platforms, it's.
Speaker 1: Really easy to be negative. It's really easy to be negative.
Speaker 10: So the guys that are really gung ho about this
Speaker 10: thing are not necessarily ones that pipe up. So I
Speaker 10: expected the negativity. I didn't expect it to be fifty
Speaker 10: to fifty, but I do expect by the time we
Speaker 10: get to February it will be probably closer to seventy
Speaker 10: five twenty five.
Speaker 4: The negative people do make they help our shows like ours.
Speaker 3: I will say that for them, So there is that.
Speaker 10: Hey, listen, you know, you guys, with all the history
Speaker 10: you have on radio and television, you know full well
Speaker 10: that you have more listeners when the Caducks are on
Speaker 10: a tone game losing than when they're on a ten
Speaker 10: game winning streak.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have experience with that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but you also, John, you do want the winning.
Speaker 5: It makes our jobs tougher too. I mean last year
Speaker 5: was fun, Donnie says it all the time. You know,
Speaker 5: last year was fun. They went to round two, almost
Speaker 5: made it to round three. You know, the negativity sells,
Speaker 5: but you know you also want some wins to cover
Speaker 5: the best when it's up and down.
Speaker 10: Yeah, frustrate, it's a it's a it's a fine line though,
Speaker 10: because you guys are you guys have done a marvelous
Speaker 10: job in the market, in the province doing what you do,
Speaker 10: so you have there is that pseudo fan in you
Speaker 10: that says, Okay, it's good if the Canucks win because
Speaker 10: people like what we're talking about and we.
Speaker 1: Have fun and and you know.
Speaker 10: What, we we wouldn't we wouldn't have jobs if the
Speaker 10: teams didn't compete, we wouldn't. So we have to be
Speaker 10: positive about certain things as well. The thing is that
Speaker 10: you know, in the end, you can't get that totally
Speaker 10: involved in whether a team wins or loses in order
Speaker 10: to do your job.
Speaker 4: Well, congrats to everybody going into the US Hockey Hall
Speaker 4: of Fame. If you weren't from Oliver, BC, John, if
Speaker 4: you were born south of the border, you'd be there too.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 10: No, the only way I get into the one in
Speaker 10: Evelyth is if I pay the twelve dollars US, which
Speaker 10: I'm not sure I have right now, and I'm just
Speaker 10: happy to be in the one that's in Penticton, the
Speaker 10: BC Hockey Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3: There you go, There you go, John, Thanks for this.
Speaker 3: We'll talk to you next week.
Speaker 1: Cheers boys, you bet.
Speaker 4: John Shannon, NHL analyst. You know you talk about the
Speaker 4: winning and how that's a great thing, and when you
Speaker 4: talk about broadcasting and talk shows like ours, do you
Speaker 4: remember when the Knucks were doing a whole lot of winning,
Speaker 4: you know, around the twenty eleven era tons and doing
Speaker 4: a talk show then it was Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 4: I love my job, but everybody was, hey, call me
Speaker 4: in April right exactly, and you kind of knew where
Speaker 4: the Canucks were going to end up. And that wasn't
Speaker 4: the best great times for Knuck fans for doing a
Speaker 4: talk show with all that winning.
Speaker 3: It wasn't the best of time. Oh, it wasn't. It's tough.
Speaker 5: It's tough our jobs, you know, but we got to
Speaker 5: do it. Donny, win or lose.
Speaker 4: I don't know how tough our jobs are. My mine is,
Speaker 4: but you and Ryan not so much. I'm kidding, of course. Okay,
Speaker 4: a break will introduce the poll question, and next it's
Speaker 4: Donnie telling the team on check.
Speaker 5: The Bayside Resort is a boutique luxury resort like no other.

Speaker 4: Book is going to join us hopefully at the top
Speaker 4: of the hour somewhere in the eleven o'clock hour.
Speaker 3: Buck he's being introduced to the media as we speak.

Speaker 4: Wattling Dog pole question and has to do with the Canucks.
Speaker 4: Visit one of Victoria's favorite pubs, The Dog, where you
Speaker 4: can enjoy twenty caps, twenty screens. You're home for the
Speaker 4: Canucks in UFC. Come sit and stay at the Wattling
Speaker 4: Dog Today.
Speaker 5: Rick Ryan get her up the Watling Dog pop pole question,
Speaker 5: and it is, what did the Canucks approve Tuesday night
Speaker 5: in Minnesota to you? Can they hang with the NHL's
Speaker 5: best or nothing? They lost hang with the NHL's best
Speaker 5: eighty percent five and forty seven votes, stop it, but hold.
Speaker 3: It a second down.
Speaker 5: They've had the easiest I don't want to be the
Speaker 5: guy that poo paus on stuff. They've never want to
Speaker 5: be that, never want to be that. They've had the
Speaker 5: NHL's easy schedule to this state. Uh, they've played seven
Speaker 5: playoff teams and haven't won outright.
Speaker 3: But that's not the question of the court. They know,
Speaker 3: but they.
Speaker 4: Hung with, they hung We're still using that expression. They
Speaker 4: hung with the best team in the National Hockey League.
Speaker 4: Lest they broadcaster hits the post and whatever.
Speaker 5: Mind overtime, I thought the Canucks controlled the game in
Speaker 5: the third period, and I thought they'd be dead tired
Speaker 5: six games. Third period and they look damn good.
Speaker 4: But what did you expect going into that game and
Speaker 4: of the end of a road trip. So many players
Speaker 4: are number one team have health concerns right now. You
Speaker 4: know Heronic deamnco Miller. You know, if we forget about
Speaker 4: Derek Forward, he would help the defense of depth at
Speaker 4: the very least. Here are some of their stars that
Speaker 4: are out. And I know Minnesota was missing Zukuo, but
Speaker 4: the Cannucks more than hung in there under some pretty
Speaker 4: trying circumstances and a tough building. I thought, look, we've
Speaker 4: taken our shots to the Conducks this year. I thought
Speaker 4: they were very impressive.
Speaker 5: They were, and we haven't mentioned this first period Canucks
Speaker 5: out out thirteen seven, who kept him in the game
Speaker 5: lanking it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's okay to have a good gold end. Absolutely
Speaker 4: and certainly that's the other thing. Certainly in Minnesota has
Speaker 4: one Besser beat him, but he hit the post. He
Speaker 4: hit the post, and they come back down the other
Speaker 4: ice and score on. Okay, you wanted to touch on
Speaker 4: this Patrick Johnson article which has dropped at the Province
Speaker 4: and there's a Jim Rutherford quote there. We got the
Speaker 4: quote a regarding JT. Miller in his absence.
Speaker 5: So this is very important clip here from Jim Rutherford
Speaker 5: talking to Patrick Johnson this morning about all the ridiculous, stupid,
Speaker 5: dumb Miller rumors on Twitter. Anyways, don't start making stuff
Speaker 5: up on someone in his situation. That's disrespectful, says Rutherford.
Speaker 5: People that do this for fun or for a living,
Speaker 5: just go back to making up trade rumors. And to
Speaker 5: be clear, the Canucks are not trading Miller.
Speaker 4: That is that last quote there is Patrick Johnson's words.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, we are not trading him, Rutherford said, flatly.
Speaker 5: We stand by him. The Vancouver Canucks are not trading JT. Miller,
Speaker 5: according to Rutherford right there. And the other thing, I'm
Speaker 5: gonna tell you the stupid, ridiculous rumor that Miller wants out,
Speaker 5: I'm here to tell you right now he has not
Speaker 5: asked for a trade and it has not happened, And
Speaker 5: so there you go.
Speaker 4: He get so angry about well, I get angry. What
Speaker 4: are you talking about, Don? The guy's dealing with a
Speaker 4: personal issue. In what world would J. T. Miller have
Speaker 4: time to say, I'm taking a personal leave. But in
Speaker 4: between somewhere they're all asked for a trade. Come on, Don,
Speaker 4: well that's happened. You've seen players ask.
Speaker 5: Leave of absence for crying out loud. It was shot
Speaker 5: down by everybody I asked about.
Speaker 3: You throw the quote up again.
Speaker 4: There's one part of it I don't like, and that's
Speaker 4: the end of that clip, probably the end of the quote.
Speaker 4: People that do this for fun, for living, just go
Speaker 4: back to making up trade rumors. This this group, like,
Speaker 4: you should be thankful people care about your team and
Speaker 4: that they do. He's just dismissive of people making up
Speaker 4: trade rumors. They don't seem to You should be thankful
Speaker 4: that people care enough about your team. Yeah, don't go
Speaker 4: speculate and what's wrong with that?
Speaker 3: JT. Miller?
Speaker 4: I get that, But just just to be dismissive of
Speaker 4: the group that makes makes the engine run in Vancouver
Speaker 4: and that's your fan base. That bucks up for everybody.
Speaker 5: You know, don When I thought about this, back in
Speaker 5: the old days, it was just radio, TV, newspapers. We
Speaker 5: didn't have to deal with this thing called Twitter. We
Speaker 5: didn't have to deal with social media. And now everyone's
Speaker 5: a knock reporter on Twitter, whether you were work for
Speaker 5: a company or not. We're just gonna throw stuff out
Speaker 5: and let's hope it sticks. And back in the days
Speaker 5: that Cannucks had to deal with TV, newspaper, radio, guys.
Speaker 5: Now that you love social why it done? And now
Speaker 5: I'm on Blue boyer what's it called? Right, Blue Sky?
Speaker 5: I'm on Blue Sky.
Speaker 3: Now boys and Blue Boys. That was a marine drive,
Speaker 3: great pub. They knocked it down. Every pub is the
Speaker 3: only building in Vancouver they got knocked down.
Speaker 5: Every pub's getting knocked down for these condos, Like we're
Speaker 5: losing good pubs from the past.
Speaker 3: Where are where were we? Now?
Speaker 5: The Canucks got to deal with social media and it's
Speaker 5: a pain in the ass. It's a pain in the
Speaker 5: ass because anybody can throw something.
Speaker 3: Can be for sure, and people believe it.
Speaker 5: Even when I tweeted and you and I talked about
Speaker 5: JT's got a reset mental and physical Nope, don't believe it.
Speaker 5: Don't believe it. People want the dirt. They want the
Speaker 5: national in choir stuff. They don't care you want the dirt. No,
Speaker 5: I don't want the dirt.
Speaker 4: I think it's wrong to speculate. No, no question about that,
Speaker 4: and we do it all the time here, but.
Speaker 3: To be curious. But you can't make stuff up and
Speaker 3: throw it out.
Speaker 4: Okay, definitely, definitely, But I think social media Twitter blue.
Speaker 3: Boy as you call it.
Speaker 4: It's an indication of just how much people care about
Speaker 4: your product.
Speaker 3: They should be thankful for that.
Speaker 5: But he causes headaches too. Okay, what did be find line?
Speaker 5: And you get mad at me when I bring this up. Oh,
Speaker 5: sometimes this market gets too big for a player. What
Speaker 5: did Petterson do?
Speaker 3: Not?
Speaker 5: Stop stop stop start that. Let me explain myself. Petterson
Speaker 5: horrible start to the season. What did Petterson do? About
Speaker 5: four or five weeks ago? He cut out all his
Speaker 5: social media agents are telling players in Canadian markets get
Speaker 5: rid of your cell phone, don't go on if I
Speaker 5: have a get off Instagram, get off of These guys
Speaker 5: are gonna drive you nuts. What did Patterson do? He's
Speaker 5: playing better? Why is he playing better? Don he got
Speaker 5: off of social media. Well, do you want me to
Speaker 5: speculate on that too? About what about why Peterson is
Speaker 5: playing better? Why is he playing better?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 5: Can I know where you're going with that? He's got
Speaker 5: how my going with that? Because Miller's out and he's
Speaker 5: happy you said it.
Speaker 3: You know I'm saying what you're thinking. Yeah, Patterson, so
Speaker 3: you're thinking it too. You set me up there.
Speaker 5: Nineteen points in his last fourteen games for Peterson, and
Speaker 5: he's playing.
Speaker 4: Some because he's off social media.
Speaker 5: Don, Sometimes this market gets too big for.
Speaker 4: He's making eleven plus six million dollars a year and
Speaker 4: every once in a while he's going to get criticized.
Speaker 4: And this is not just him, any of these guys.
Speaker 4: They're going to get criticized in a hot Canadian market.
Speaker 4: They should thank they're lucky stars. Like, honestly, there's guys
Speaker 4: getting up at four in the morning that going out
Speaker 4: to dig ditches with three or four kids, and you
Speaker 4: think they don't have a tough careers aren't.
Speaker 3: Long, Don, The odd guy plays ten.
Speaker 4: If you're making that kind of money and they're making
Speaker 4: that kind of money, you're set for life. After one season.
Speaker 4: A lot of these guys will be fine.
Speaker 5: Hey, how many times have you and I read a
Speaker 5: story where pro athlete bleue millions and millions of dollars done?
Speaker 3: These guys are regular human beings.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, all right, let's let's do this. I
Speaker 4: wanted to get this in because it was hard to
Speaker 4: watch but gripping at the same time. And that's what
Speaker 4: the Flames and Blue Jackets were up to last night
Speaker 4: in Calgary. And all these people out there who rip
Speaker 4: into hockey culture, how horrible it is, and yeah, there
Speaker 4: are bad examples, there's no question about it. Hockey culture,
Speaker 4: ninety nine percent of the people in are fabulous people
Speaker 4: who go out of their way to do things for
Speaker 4: their teammates, for their parents, for their kids, whatever the
Speaker 4: case may be. And I thought that was on display
Speaker 4: yesterday as the Flames and the Blue Jackets, Johnny Gudro's
Speaker 4: two teams came together to honor the late Johnny Gudreau
Speaker 4: and his brother Matthew, the whole Gudro family was there
Speaker 4: and it was just it was tough to watch, but
Speaker 4: again gripping, and they did a fabulous job yesterday. We're
Speaker 4: going to go out on this clip as we get
Speaker 4: ready for big Rye, the Twitter guy. But this is
Speaker 4: Geek Gudro who's on the ice morning skate with the
Speaker 4: Flames front and center, wearing a Flames jersey. This is
Speaker 4: a Geek Gudro. Johnny and Matthew's father post game with
Speaker 4: the support of Michael Backland and Rasmus Aderson.
Speaker 12: Big rise next, these two guys in the team and
Speaker 12: the city. I always loved my son and I know
Speaker 12: if he's looking down now, he's smiling and happy that
Speaker 12: these guys have played hard for him. And it's been
Speaker 12: a hard time for our family. But you know, these
Speaker 12: guys are hurting too, you know, and they got to play,
Speaker 12: and the way they played tonight with.
Speaker 11: Heavy hearts was pretty impressive to me.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 12: I love these guys and a lot of guys in
Speaker 12: the locker room, and it was fun to watch him
Speaker 12: perform the way he did.
Speaker 11: And you know, center ice.
Speaker 12: When I dropped the poka backs here and my hand
Speaker 12: are both balling.
Speaker 11: I'm crying. I'm like, they're going to play a hockey game. Coulden.
Speaker 11: He barely got up the stairs.
Speaker 12: But these are tough guys and they're they're great hockey players,
Speaker 12: and I'm proud of them.
Speaker 11: And John's looking down at him and proud of them.

Speaker 4: Just I had a big ride the Twitter guy Delaney's okay,
Speaker 4: Tyron Langley inbox unsigned, please sign your text, folks. Didn't
Speaker 4: Kirk McClain say he'd like to trade from Vancouver to
Speaker 4: Carolina because it got him out of the fish bowl?
Speaker 4: Remember that I do remember that interesting because I remember
Speaker 4: it well and that the Canucks trading fan favorite Kirk
Speaker 4: McClain from Vancouver to Carolina. And Kirk did say something
Speaker 4: to that effect. The listener of the viewers paraphrasing here.
Speaker 4: But what was interesting about it is that he said
Speaker 4: that Sean Burke came the other way from Carolina to
Speaker 4: Vancouver got quintry, he said the He said the exact opposite.
Speaker 4: It wasn't a Keenan that made that deal, but he
Speaker 4: said the exact opposite. Sean Burke said, you know what,
Speaker 4: I'm tired of sharing, you know, the attention with football
Speaker 4: and baseball and all the college sports.
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 4: I've got the heat on me now and I love
Speaker 4: this sort of thing. He didn't last long in Vancouver,
Speaker 4: but it was funny. Grass is always a greener right on.
Speaker 3: The other side, big gry.
Speaker 6: The one thing I'll say is I feel like far
Speaker 6: too many people look at his salary and then that's it.
Speaker 6: Oh you make X, that's it. You don't have any
Speaker 6: issues in your life because you make X. That's what's
Speaker 6: going in your bank.
Speaker 4: That's not what I'm saying, but that's what a lot
Speaker 4: of people read into.
Speaker 3: There was a lot of that.
Speaker 6: Yesterday, I've been talking about Mither's leave of absence. Come on,
Speaker 6: you're you're you're a multimillion dollar athlete in the prime
Speaker 6: of your life, come.
Speaker 3: On, shall with it.
Speaker 6: They have their ups and downs, that's but that's what
Speaker 6: That's my point.
Speaker 4: And how many of people's lives ups and downs have
Speaker 4: to do with what they're making or their financial situation.
Speaker 3: But that's the point.
Speaker 5: It don't matter how much you make, you can have
Speaker 5: the same problems that we do.
Speaker 4: Everyone has. There's one problem, that's one major problem that's eliminated.
Speaker 3: Sorry, but that's it is. But it doesn't.
Speaker 6: But it doesn't take away the other real life stuff,
Speaker 6: like you know, I get.
Speaker 3: That family life issues.
Speaker 4: So nobody nobody worries about their financial situation.
Speaker 3: No, of course, But again you're you're eliminated.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but but your problems aren't eliminated because of it.
Speaker 4: Ryan, I get that, and I reckon, I get that,
Speaker 4: but you're you're telling me that nobody out there worries
Speaker 4: about their financial situation and that it can't can't lead.
Speaker 3: To other problems in your life. Of course it does.
Speaker 3: They don't have to worry about that. Yeah, okay, but
Speaker 3: it doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. White you're taking his
Speaker 3: sign because it doesn't wipe out everything else. And to
Speaker 3: be honest with you, I will say that. I will
Speaker 3: say this.
Speaker 6: The Petterson social media thing is being overblown, Like we
Speaker 6: were pushing almost a year of his struggles.
Speaker 5: There's no way agents are now telling God. I don't
Speaker 5: doubt that in markets, cut out the social media because
Speaker 5: you're hurting yourself.
Speaker 3: I don't doubt that.
Speaker 5: If you want to read all the nasty bs on Twitter,
Speaker 5: then go ahead, but get off.
Speaker 4: And Rick, you're absolutely right because people are forcing them
Speaker 4: to go on social media.
Speaker 3: They can't contain.
Speaker 5: Peterson got off and guess what, he's playing a whole
Speaker 5: lot better.
Speaker 3: The one thing I will saying control.
Speaker 4: You can control yourself when it comes to social media.
Speaker 6: But it's also an outlet though to making more money.
Speaker 6: It can't be Yeah, like if you're if you, if
Speaker 6: you're Connormano.
Speaker 4: Why would you want to do that if money's not
Speaker 4: Money's not an important issue.
Speaker 3: You just said that. I never said that.
Speaker 6: I just said it doesn't wipe away everything because you're
Speaker 6: making a lot of money. Your bank account doesn't say
Speaker 6: you your family life's gonna be fine, You're not gonna have
Speaker 6: any sickness, You're not gonna have anything else going on
Speaker 6: because your bank account's what it is.
Speaker 3: Like connorvan Dart, we see him in these ads with Hyundai.
Speaker 6: If he's on Instagram and Hyundai goes, yeah, okay, And
Speaker 6: as part of your sponsorship with us. We want you
Speaker 6: to post on Instagram twice this season about our cars.
Speaker 6: It's that I understand why he's on Instagram. Then if
Speaker 6: I was him, though, I would just turn the keys
Speaker 6: over to a manager and say here, take my take
Speaker 6: my social media accounts. You guys post what I need
Speaker 6: to sponsor wise, but I'm not gonna turn.
Speaker 4: Your keys over. Your social media keys over to a manager. Yeah,
Speaker 4: like a social power able to do that. What do
Speaker 4: you mean, here's my blogging? Because here's my logging. I know,
Speaker 4: I don't understand how you're you're not understanding.
Speaker 13: This, Like you believe Liz Petterson making eleven point six million,
Speaker 13: then he doesn't have the right to look at his
Speaker 13: Instagram and have some scumbag telling me should jump off
Speaker 13: the lions Gate Bridge.
Speaker 3: Because that's that's that, no doubt about it. No, But
Speaker 3: your answer to.
Speaker 4: That social media, you're you're not getting that that. Hey,
Speaker 4: you're you're completely dismissing that a lot of people out there,
Speaker 4: a lot of their problems are caused by what they're
Speaker 4: making at work.
Speaker 3: Yes, that they're that's Olivia professional.
Speaker 4: A lot a lot of a lot of people don't
Speaker 4: say I changed places with him in a second social
Speaker 4: media or not.
Speaker 3: That's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I'm saying that the idea that they make X so
Speaker 6: then they can't bitch about anything because they make that
Speaker 6: amount of money is wrong.
Speaker 3: Like actually on my side with this, that's what's surprising.
Speaker 5: And not all athletes make eleven million. There's guys make
Speaker 5: one point two and guess what, you know where those
Speaker 5: guys are done.
Speaker 3: They're they're about one day away.
Speaker 5: From the American League, and then when you get to
Speaker 5: the American League, you're one day away from the East
Speaker 5: Coast Hockey League, and then when you get to the
Speaker 5: East Coast Hockey League, it's over.
Speaker 4: It's not anybody, nobody in any other profession has that
Speaker 4: kind of pressure on them. Well, of course they do
Speaker 4: that with a lot less money involved.
Speaker 6: The difference is for the athlete though, is most of
Speaker 6: them haven't done anything else.
Speaker 5: But the point is Canadian markets are tougher. You think
Speaker 5: Carolina and Columbus players whind about those markets.
Speaker 3: No, but we see, we see because we see it
Speaker 3: everywhere else. You see it everywhere. There's no media. You're
Speaker 3: telling me you're doing.
Speaker 5: To Alexander Revner, go to Los Angeles. Gee, I wonder sure,
Speaker 5: so he can walk down the.
Speaker 4: Beats the number one reason why it was a hell
Speaker 4: of a big reason he should walk down the road
Speaker 4: and nobody recognize it. Like being an NFL player or
Speaker 4: a player in English Premier So in the English Premier
Speaker 4: Soccer League, what's it like for them?
Speaker 3: Exactly?
Speaker 4: No superstars. There's no estates at all. You can go
Speaker 4: to any team and you're gonna have all that sorts
Speaker 4: of all kinds of pressure on, and people make it
Speaker 4: seem like hockey is different. You have that, you have
Speaker 4: those levels of pressure. You can go to Canadian market
Speaker 4: and be a rock star. You can go to Florida
Speaker 4: relatively speaking, and disappear, or you can go to New
Speaker 4: York and Boston where you're kind of a star.
Speaker 3: It's different.
Speaker 6: Bus I'll also maintain even a maple leaf in Toronto
Speaker 6: is ten levels below like a Yankee in New York.
Speaker 5: For as much as people kick, because there's a hell
Speaker 5: of a lot more people in New York there ernto.
Speaker 3: It's still not to the level. It's still I still
Speaker 3: and Donnie knows this. Pebble Bray.
Speaker 5: One of his problems was the same thing he couldn't
Speaker 5: go to the grocery store without somebody bothering him it.
Speaker 5: You know, the market gets to players.
Speaker 3: And I could see it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I could get that was one of his complaints.
Speaker 5: Pebble Breys. I can't go anywhere in Vancouver without being bugged.
Speaker 5: You know, that's an issue. I think if I could
Speaker 5: pick it, I would pick an in between.
Speaker 6: Like Donnie just brought up a Boston or something that
Speaker 6: you might if you if ten people saw you, seven
Speaker 6: knew who you were instead.
Speaker 3: Of their benefits to being recognized too. Sure.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but like daily all the time, like Connor McDavid
Speaker 6: going out of liquor store is he's trying to load
Speaker 6: booze into his vehicle and give you that guy sitting
Speaker 6: in his car almost.
Speaker 3: We're out of time. I got it, I got no time.
Speaker 3: What did you have?
Speaker 6: Well, I was gonna bring up have you guys seen
Speaker 6: this golden this golden at bat thing with the MLB
Speaker 6: that Rob Manford's floating. So Rob Manfred kind of just
Speaker 6: threw this out there that at the owner's meetings, the
Speaker 6: MMB owners meetings. One idea of being tossed around is
Speaker 6: called a golden at bat, where a player regardless of
Speaker 6: where they are in the lineup, could be tapped on
Speaker 6: the shoulder and go up to take the at bat.
Speaker 6: So let's say the Yankees are down four to two
Speaker 6: in a game, bottom of the ninth inning, two outs
Speaker 6: and they're seven eight nine hitters scheduled to go out.
Speaker 6: Yeah they could go. No, Aaron Judge go for one
Speaker 6: time in the game. You could pick any hitter you want. No,
Speaker 6: they were replaced.
Speaker 3: Love it now. It's way too gimmicky. This is like
Speaker 3: something out of like a video game. Do you like
Speaker 3: three on three?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's gimmicky. It's gimmicky, but it's closer to shoot out.
Speaker 6: It's but you're not so this would be like, this
Speaker 6: would be like so the Canucks. Okay, the Canucks are,
Speaker 6: they're down a goal in the third period, they take
Speaker 6: Quinn Eughes takes a penalty, and Rick talking can say, no, no,
Speaker 6: I want news Holglander to take.
Speaker 3: The penalty once a game. Yeah, it's skimmicky. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3: This is like something out of an All Star game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you and Rick bo go on and on
Speaker 4: about how baseball is too conservative and too stuck in
Speaker 4: the past. At least they're trying to progress here and
Speaker 4: make things more entertaining.
Speaker 3: But but there's a happy medium.
Speaker 6: I've loved the pitch clock, and I don't think anybody
Speaker 6: says anything about it anymore, with how the speeds it's moving.
Speaker 3: Even notice it now, it's it's fantastic.
Speaker 6: That's been an I even don't hate the second the
Speaker 6: runner on second in extra innings, to get that over with.
Speaker 3: I actually don't hate that. Some people do. I don't
Speaker 3: hate it.
Speaker 6: This is way too gimmicky, Like, wait, you're gonna have
Speaker 6: some big announcement, never mind now batting Aaron Judge, some
Speaker 6: big spotlight or something. You make it into a big production.
Speaker 4: You want to see the stud picture and mow down,
Speaker 4: and that wouldn't always happen. I get that number nine
Speaker 4: batter in the lineup?
Speaker 3: You okay with that? It's it's the game. It's the rules.
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously you sometimes rules change. I mean, look,
Speaker 3: and everyone brings up the basketball didn't have a three
Speaker 3: point line for the long Yeah, but again those are
Speaker 3: like those as kind of made the game worse in
Speaker 3: a way. A lot of people say no big time,
Speaker 3: but I don't think that that's that. This is messing
Speaker 3: with the game too much. This is like a wrestling thing.
Speaker 3: It feels like almost you're subbing a guy out. You're
Speaker 3: allowed to sub somebody out like this.
Speaker 6: I again, he's saying, I wonder how much of this
Speaker 6: Manford heard about the idea, but I'll toss it out.
Speaker 3: There's the MLB off season.
Speaker 8: Why not.
Speaker 6: We'll get some clicks. And that's kind of what's happened.
Speaker 6: I'll be surprised if this ever gets off the ground,
Speaker 6: especially by the way, especially with the feedback, since most
Speaker 6: baseball fans have talked about how much they hate it.
Speaker 3: Don't do it. It's too gimmicky, don't know. I haven't
Speaker 3: seen a lot of love for it.
Speaker 6: So I mean, if you wanted to, you know, part
Speaker 6: of the All Star Game or something, sure I'm for it.
Speaker 6: But like a big game and you're allowing guys to
Speaker 6: like perish you into the lineup, does.
Speaker 3: That increase your interest or decrease your interest?
Speaker 6: I mean, Aaron, I guess you. I guess it would
Speaker 6: increase it. But again, it's too gimmicky. Uh, Okay, coming
Speaker 6: up next, I think I'm still chatting with Matt Baker
Speaker 6: on this.
Speaker 3: Oh we didn't do that. Oh I didn't do a
Speaker 3: big around the Twitter guys. Brought to you by a

Speaker 4: Lions made it official they've replaced Rick Campbell with the
Speaker 4: twenty eighth head coach in club history, former Lions quarterback
Speaker 4: Buck Pierce, coming over from Winnipeg where he was the
Speaker 4: offensive coordinator. And Buck just finished some media responsibilities and
Speaker 4: he's able to join us now.
Speaker 3: Buck, thanks for doing this, sir. How are you? Congratulations
Speaker 3: And I'm doing great.
Speaker 8: I'm doing great. Thanks for having me on. Guys.
Speaker 4: Now, is it true that you're bringing in Casey Printers
Speaker 4: to back up Nathan Rourke?
Speaker 3: Is that? Is that right?
Speaker 8: That that is not correct?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 4: The reason I brought this up, Buck is because I'm
Speaker 4: looking back. I'm looking on your Wikipedia page at your
Speaker 4: career and you joined the Lions in five right in
Speaker 4: the middle of the saga Dickinson versus Printers.
Speaker 3: What was that like and what did you learn that
Speaker 3: might be a value today?
Speaker 8: Well, I mean everything's a lesson. Everything's a lesson, And
Speaker 8: you know, it's one thing I learned as as as
Speaker 8: a player and as a young coach. You know, you
Speaker 8: really just try and be a sponge. You try and
Speaker 8: absorb as much information and watch people around you as
Speaker 8: you can. You know, I learned a lot about you know,
Speaker 8: that situation. You know, two two very talented you know athletes,
Speaker 8: you know, two great quarterbacks. You know, I learned a
Speaker 8: lot of you know stuff about you know what to do,
Speaker 8: you know, had you know how to handle yourself and
Speaker 8: and also you know, in certain cases, you know what
Speaker 8: not to do right. So you know, every every situation
Speaker 8: is learning experience. And you know that was you know,
Speaker 8: that was a big one for me.
Speaker 3: And I still maintained to this day.
Speaker 4: That was good for the football club because they got
Speaker 4: a whole lot of attention during that time and they
Speaker 4: did a lot of winning. Hey what attracted you to
Speaker 4: the Lion's job? Bucking all seriousness?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 8: You know, I I have a deep bond with this organization.
Speaker 8: You know, it took a shot on twenty three year
Speaker 8: old kid, you know, from a small school, and and
Speaker 8: you know, I got an opportunity to continue my coaching
Speaker 8: or my playing career after college. And uh, you know,
Speaker 8: I fell in love with this place and I fell
Speaker 8: in love with with with the community. You know, made
Speaker 8: bonds up up you know here and and in the
Speaker 8: Lower Mainland that that our lifelong bonds for me. And
Speaker 8: then you know, one once you know, Ryan got hired,
Speaker 8: you know, having the ability to work with Ryan, I
Speaker 8: knew him from his time in Winnipeg and and you know,
Speaker 8: I really believe that we see the game the same way.
Speaker 5: Hey, Buck, the big question out here Vancouver is Nathan Rourke. Uh,
Speaker 5: You're gonna be able to work with him next year,
Speaker 5: get him back to the way he was playing before
Speaker 5: he went to the NFL. What did you see from
Speaker 5: Nathan last season? And and talk about working with him
Speaker 5: and getting them back to where he was.
Speaker 8: Well, you know, I think the biggest thing is just
Speaker 8: getting to know each other. You know, we're excited to
Speaker 8: get to know each other, you know, on on a
Speaker 8: personal you know level. You know, the relationship between you know,
Speaker 8: coach and you know play caller and quarterback is extremely important.
Speaker 8: Right so you know, I'm I'm here for you know,
Speaker 8: just support him obviously. You know what he does on
Speaker 8: the field, you know, is is is elite. You know,
Speaker 8: He's able to do things and process you know information,
Speaker 8: you know, really as quick as I've seen any anybody do, Right,
Speaker 8: so you know, I think just you know, continuing to
Speaker 8: develop our relationship, you know, and and and you know,
Speaker 8: get on the same page. I do believe you know,
Speaker 8: he's he's elite at you know, how he understands the game,
Speaker 8: you know, how to play the position, you know, and
Speaker 8: I'm just I'm gonna be there to guide him.
Speaker 5: Hey, buck, this Lion's team last year starts out five
Speaker 5: and one and then just collapse in the second half.
Speaker 5: You watched them in Winnipeg Western Final the two years previous.
Speaker 5: A lot of talent there, But what's missing? And what
Speaker 5: what do you need to fix? Right off to bat?
Speaker 8: Well, I think I think you know what we need.
Speaker 8: We need a direction, you know, and and and that's
Speaker 8: part of the reason you know that I'm here is
Speaker 8: we're going to provide uh a direction of what we
Speaker 8: want to be and and we're going to act on that.
Speaker 8: Right we need to get tougher and and and you know,
Speaker 8: we need to be accountable. And you know that's that's
Speaker 8: gonna be the focus of our off season, you know,
Speaker 8: is how can we how can we you know, get
Speaker 8: tougher you know, mentally, you know, and physically you know,
Speaker 8: to be able to with staying or you know, some
Speaker 8: of the ups and downs throughout the season. You know,
Speaker 8: there's gonna be adversity. Every team goes through it. You know,
Speaker 8: we got to we got to make sure we're mentally
Speaker 8: tough enough to be able to you know, fight through that.
Speaker 5: Hey, Buck, one more about the coaching staff. It's got
Speaker 5: to be number one on your list. How long do
Speaker 5: you think you will take to name the assistance?
Speaker 8: Well, you know, we're we're already looking at you know,
Speaker 8: you know guys, we've you know, you know, we've reached out,
Speaker 8: We've talked to people. You know, we're going to continue
Speaker 8: to have those have those conversations. You know, we're not
Speaker 8: going to put a date on it. Obviously, it's it's uh,
Speaker 8: you know, important to us. But we want to make
Speaker 8: sure we talk to everybody and you know we're on
Speaker 8: the same page going forward and we find the right people.
Speaker 4: Hey, and we're talking with bub Buck Pierce, new head
Speaker 4: coach the of the BC Allons. You touched on the
Speaker 4: name Ryan earlier talking about Ryan rig Maiden and people
Speaker 4: around here. I know he's been with your organization for
Speaker 4: a while. He was with Winnipeg as well. We don't
Speaker 4: know a whole lot about him. But man, is he respected.
Speaker 4: What do the Lions have in their new general manager,
Speaker 4: Ryan rig Maiden.
Speaker 8: You have a passionate, a passionate individual that's gonna put everything,
Speaker 8: you know he has into his work. You know, he's
Speaker 8: gonna work extremely hard. He loves the BC Lions. Uh,
Speaker 8: you know, he loves the CFL, you know, and and
Speaker 8: and and he's a football guy, right, he is gonna
Speaker 8: he's gonna do everything he can for the BC Lions,
Speaker 8: and and and you know, being being around Ryan, you know,
Speaker 8: our conversations with him, I think we just you know,
Speaker 8: we see that in the same light.
Speaker 4: What does what does Wally Blondle mean to you, Bucky?
Speaker 4: I believe it was your first head coach or in
Speaker 4: the Canadian Football League.
Speaker 8: Yeah, uh, you know, Wally means wal He means a
Speaker 8: lot to me, you know, not just as a guy
Speaker 8: that uh, you know, I played under or a coach obviously,
Speaker 8: everybody knows his his his record and his you know,
Speaker 8: legacy in the league, but just a guy that you know,
Speaker 8: I learned so much, you know, off the field. Obviously
Speaker 8: he gave me my opportunity, but the respect, you know
Speaker 8: that I have for him as a person, as a father.
Speaker 8: You know, the way that he handled himself and and
Speaker 8: how he treated players. You know, he he was He
Speaker 8: was firm, he was fair, you know, always honest and
Speaker 8: and that's what you want.
Speaker 3: And we all know he's pulling for you. Buck.
Speaker 4: I know you're busy today. We can't thank you enough
Speaker 4: for this. We really appreciate that a lot, all sorts
Speaker 4: of people pulling for you.
Speaker 3: Thanks so much.
Speaker 8: Hey, thank you guys so much. I look forward to
Speaker 8: talking again.
Speaker 3: You bet all right.
Speaker 4: Buck Pierce a new head coach of the BC Alliance. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I forgot that he was. He was the third quarterback
Speaker 4: during the Printer's Dickinson affair.
Speaker 3: And I'll say it again, and that was.
Speaker 4: I mean, they were winning at the time, and they
Speaker 4: had a Walley which helps with with the winning. But
Speaker 4: that controversy and oh, I was doing talk radio with
Speaker 4: Pratt at the time. The Lions were front and center.
Speaker 8: It was.
Speaker 4: It was really good for the franchise in a real
Speaker 4: strange way.
Speaker 5: I was in the middle of it with Printer's agent Jason.
Speaker 11: Look.
Speaker 5: Hey, Buck Pierce in California drives five hours up to
Speaker 5: Portland Canucks free agent camp. Wally Bono got tipped off
Speaker 5: about this quarterback. Keep an eye on him. His life
Speaker 5: never been the same. He's been in Canada since those
Speaker 5: free agent camps. The CFL holds all over. Cam Wake
Speaker 5: was found at a camp in Maryland, Donnie. Those free
Speaker 5: agent camps are big for Canadian teams.
Speaker 4: All the best to a Buck Pierce. We'll update you
Speaker 4: know what I'm gonna do here. I'll read the able,
Speaker 4: I'll do the able to read, and then we'll.
Speaker 3: Throw the break. If that's okay with you? Are you?
Speaker 3: I think you meant Lions free agent camp, not Connucks.
Speaker 3: You can, I says it's. Buck did try and be
Speaker 3: their third goaltender for one season, but unfortunately was the
Speaker 3: Floridian slip. Ryan.
Speaker 4: What what happened is the the Canucks offered him eleven million.
Speaker 5: I can't do that eleven million, he said, No, I'm
Speaker 5: going to the Lions camp eighty five.
Speaker 6: It just still blows my mind that some of these
Speaker 6: guys they can find in these camps, like Cam Wake.
Speaker 4: Well, I think Cam went to the wrong place, did
Speaker 4: he not?
Speaker 5: That was Pabo Villaag Bobbo villa Bage had a big part.
Speaker 5: He went to the camp and he missed it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: Cam Wake missed the Lions. Then they got him the
Speaker 5: next day. Those caps are big.
Speaker 3: How is he not an NFL draft pick? I can't wait?
Speaker 4: Like Ryan, I know he had issues in college that
Speaker 4: he was at Penn State and there was some issues
Speaker 4: in college and he didn't have the career he was
Speaker 4: expected to have and came up to Canada and the
Speaker 4: rest is history.
Speaker 3: Ryan. A lot of good American players come up here
Speaker 3: go back. No, I know, I know, but it's a
Speaker 3: small world for you haven't made it in the NFL.
Speaker 4: Here's an opportunity to play pro football, maybe make it
Speaker 4: in the NFL after you played in the CFL.
Speaker 3: Just small world.
Speaker 6: But we talk about great athletes that have played in
Speaker 6: the city. I think that's one that kind of gets
Speaker 6: forget a lot forgotten a lot can't Wake.
Speaker 5: Oh came up here and it made millions and now
Speaker 5: it went down South, made million with the Dolphins and
Speaker 5: he was good.
Speaker 3: Exactly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, get this able to read in what do you think?
Speaker 3: Yeah?

Speaker 5: What did the Canucks approve Tuesday night in Minnesota? They
Speaker 5: can hang with the NHL's best eighty percent. Say yes, nothing.
Speaker 5: They lost twenty percent six hundred and fifty three votes already, and.
Speaker 4: We said it earlier in the show for segment Wild
Speaker 4: over the Canucks three to two in overtime. You could
Speaker 4: say what you want about the result, Cannuck fans, that
Speaker 4: was a great game to watch, and I think the
Speaker 4: Canucks under some pretty adverse conditions, missing all the players
Speaker 4: that are missing right now and playing at the end
Speaker 4: of a six game road trip, I think they proved
Speaker 4: a lot yes yesterday. Again, I know it was only
Speaker 4: one game, but I thought Minnesota, the players, the team
Speaker 4: goaltanding the building was very, very impressive and the Canucks
Speaker 4: were right there with him. And then you felt for
Speaker 4: Rodbester needs a goal. Okay, he definitely needs It's hard
Speaker 4: to say, can you imagine if you know he needs
Speaker 4: a goal, can you imagine if the goal he scored
Speaker 4: was to win an overtime in his old stomping grounds, Minnesota,
Speaker 4: that would have been so special.
Speaker 5: His hometown, Donnie, his old stomping gowns. No dempgo, no Miller,
Speaker 5: no Heronic for the last three games, that was a
Speaker 5: gutsy character win. And they come back and listen and
Speaker 5: the other one for you, don is now, all of
Speaker 5: a sudden, they got a homestand six games starting fight
Speaker 5: against Columbus. There's ten and two on the road, but
Speaker 5: they're three five and three at home. I don't get it, Like,
Speaker 5: how do you play so well on the roaddawn, It's
Speaker 5: been a strange season, and you come home and you
Speaker 5: absolutely uh not good. You look at the Carolina game
Speaker 5: was awful, the Devil's game, the Oilers game that coughed
Speaker 5: up so many goals at home.
Speaker 4: Well, I think it so so much. I really believe
Speaker 4: like the first week or two people in the ad
Speaker 4: doesn't matter. You'll get your game together. But the tone
Speaker 4: is set so often for teams in the first few
Speaker 4: moments of a regular season. Look what they did last year.
Speaker 4: Those two, the back to back wins, including a wipeout
Speaker 4: knocking knocking off the Evanston Oilers, and that kind.
Speaker 3: Of set the tone for the season.
Speaker 4: We think about those first two games at home against
Speaker 4: Calgary where they blew a three goal lead twice at
Speaker 4: home and they lose, lose to Calgary, and then they
Speaker 4: lose to Philadelphia at home, and that that I don't
Speaker 4: know if they've really recovered from that at home. So
Speaker 4: six games at home. It all starts Friday against the Columbus,
Speaker 4: the Columbus Blue Jackets. Okay, the four Nations rosters are
Speaker 4: being unveiled today starting with moments ago, Finland and Sweden.
Speaker 4: We have the entire finish roster. Is that right, right?
Speaker 4: And Kevin Lankanen is one of the goaltenders, got that right?
Speaker 3: Okay? Yeah, So there you go.
Speaker 4: There's Lancannon along with Laconan from the Buffalo and u C.
Speaker 3: Sarah's of course, he.
Speaker 4: Will be the number one guy you would think from Nashville.
Speaker 4: And by the way, something we have I mentioned it
Speaker 4: was a wonderful night in the National Hockey League yesterday.
Speaker 4: There were five overtime games. There were four overtime goals
Speaker 4: scored within a span of something like seventeen minutes in
Speaker 4: real time. Patrick Lane is on this team and he
Speaker 4: comes back and scores a big goal for the Montreal
Speaker 4: Canadians yesterday, and he's on this finish squad as well.
Speaker 5: Wreck Yeah, and how happy was he last night? And
Speaker 5: did you see the ovation he got from the Montreal fans. So,
Speaker 5: Kevin Lancannon obviously having a great season. Obviously Cerro's is
Speaker 5: going to be the number one goal either Doney, but
Speaker 5: I think Kevin lankn and and Uka Paca Lucan and boy,
Speaker 5: who's the backup?
Speaker 3: Eh? Who's the backup? That's one of the smoothest names
Speaker 3: you've ever prayed. Let me try Let me try it again. No, no, no,
Speaker 3: well you're ahead, No, luc have you e remember rehearsing
Speaker 3: this in a mirror? Hey?
Speaker 5: There are some names I nail, not many, apparently this
Speaker 5: is one.
Speaker 3: But that's one of them.
Speaker 4: I think you look at all these rosters and I
Speaker 4: say to myself, you know, and you can I think
Speaker 4: most people would go into this tournament saying that this
Speaker 4: is the underdog team.
Speaker 3: But if they won, Yeah, Finland.
Speaker 4: I'm listening or early morning radio today and people saying,
Speaker 4: finish the finish players, finish teams, men or women always
Speaker 4: find a way. I mean, there's some wonderful players there.
Speaker 4: Obviously a barkoff is there, and I still feel an
Speaker 4: underrated defenseman in Miro Heiskin In with the Dallas Stars,
Speaker 4: There's there's a whole lot there.
Speaker 5: But after high Skin and Donnie, it gets pretty slim
Speaker 5: on that blue line.
Speaker 4: Okay, And do we have any information regarding Sweden right now?
Speaker 6: Apparently they're releasing the well they did for both of them. Uh,
Speaker 6: they're releasing them almost like a player at a time.
Speaker 6: So I don't have a graphic like we just had.
Speaker 6: Oh yes, I do, look at this in real time.
Speaker 6: It just dropped as the kids saying, just was released
Speaker 6: and here is Team Sweden and uh, the big controversy here,
Speaker 6: Lias Petterson didn't make Team Sweden. If you can believe it,
Speaker 6: I'm just kidding.
Speaker 3: I had dolly one for a second. Where's the name?
Speaker 3: Where's his name? Hey? Hold in a second? Back it up.
Speaker 5: Peterson was struggling, Oh no, he's not going to make
Speaker 5: the Swedish roster.
Speaker 3: Come on, who said that?
Speaker 5: There was people in the market that said he's not
Speaker 5: going to make it when he was closed on his side.
Speaker 3: Sam A.
Speaker 5: Lamb, he made the right call getting Petters. He's the
Speaker 5: head coach, right, Sam Lam's aad coach.
Speaker 3: Good guy? Uh, you picked Peterson. Sam A.
Speaker 5: Lamb coached Patterson after his draft year in Sweden. He
Speaker 5: loves a guy, Sam Lamb loves him.
Speaker 4: But I mean what Petterson is doing lately, and let's
Speaker 4: throw the contract stuff out the door. He's been pretty
Speaker 4: impressive piling up the points, right, so that's no surprise
Speaker 4: at all.
Speaker 3: What do you what do you want to see?
Speaker 6: Will you notice he's on the fourth line that he's
Speaker 6: gonna have to play with lin Holm?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 6: Jewel ericsonac Well, lind home too. Joel ericson okay, you
Speaker 6: want up to just some horrible.
Speaker 3: Stuff last night? Yeah, it was completely on call.
Speaker 4: I know you're trying to do like a you know,
Speaker 4: fabulous broadcasting segue here, but if you don't mind, can
Speaker 4: we just focus on the roster here for a second.
Speaker 3: Look at that defense?
Speaker 4: Well, first the goaltending marks for the he'd be the
Speaker 4: biggest name there, I think, but he's going to be
Speaker 4: the bat. But Linus all Mark, you know, great times
Speaker 4: in Boston not so much right now with Ottawa. But
Speaker 4: Philip Gustison numbers wise been the best goal in the
Speaker 4: nation ocy league, so a pleasant problem for Sweden. But
Speaker 4: look at look at the defense for extra Rasmus Anderson
Speaker 4: is you don't even want to bring it up because
Speaker 4: it was a second round draft pick that the Caducks
Speaker 4: gave to the Flames and that's what they picked.
Speaker 6: Oh stop, It's like the people about the Utah what's
Speaker 6: his name, Dylan Gunther.
Speaker 3: You have no idea if the Caducks would have picked
Speaker 3: this guy or not. And that is the oldest argument.
Speaker 4: It's true though the fact is though yes the craft
Speaker 4: Capital went Calgary picked Anderson with the pick the Caducks gave. Okay,
Speaker 4: Rasmus de Lane Victor headman Eric Carlson is there all right?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 4: And wasn't he one of the first six.
Speaker 5: Name he was, which shock people. But anyways, he's been horrible.
Speaker 4: I don't know where he lines up here because he
Speaker 4: might be the sixth or seventh at home, a stud defensively,
Speaker 4: certainly for the Oilers, he's there. Jonas Brodein underrated with
Speaker 4: the wild and this is another one that hurts the
Speaker 4: gostaf Forestling, who's been phenomenal fifth round pick of the
Speaker 4: connection they got rid of him right away, and another
Speaker 4: connection with the Lindholme being there.
Speaker 5: But donnie, look up the middle of the ice, they're
Speaker 5: going to be strong Forestburg, Carlston Campaign, Lindholm, Knelander. That's
Speaker 5: a very very impressive group of centermen. They're going to
Speaker 5: be really strong up the middle.
Speaker 3: Of the ice.
Speaker 5: Ol huh, No, Oel that did the Shana Lamb looked
Speaker 5: at Oel.
Speaker 3: He was in Toronto. They were scouting. He was there
Speaker 3: in Toronto.
Speaker 4: He's been resurgent the last two seasons. Go go talk about.
Speaker 3: Your we're up against the time, Okay, we don't have to.
Speaker 4: Well, just so people know, Joel Eric said, k at
Speaker 4: his hit yesterday, I Keifer would bad hit.
Speaker 3: They didn't get a penalty, No not.
Speaker 4: I mean there's some people talking about how was this suspendable?
Speaker 3: He didn't get a penalty.
Speaker 6: Drantz tweeted, is not a big deal. He didn't understand
Speaker 6: the uproar in the head.
Speaker 4: Well, let's just saying that Sherwood, you know, knelt down
Speaker 4: and into the elbow.
Speaker 3: I don't care. The optics don't look good here. Joel
Speaker 3: Eric said's a head shot the alcow right in the head, Like,
Speaker 3: what is he? Meanwhile, Queen Hughes soft cross check, but
Speaker 3: the guy hit his face wasn't a soft cat check
Speaker 3: cross check. Part of me, that wasn't what you said.
Speaker 3: He didn't know. That was not a soft soft doney. Look,
Speaker 3: it wasn't that hard. Okay, it wasn't that hard. And
Speaker 3: let's be honest.
Speaker 6: The only reason why he got the penalty you got
Speaker 6: it was because his nose was cut. If he got
Speaker 6: if he gets much like Sherwood last night, if Sherwood says.
Speaker 4: That, I'm tired of being right in all these arguments.
Speaker 3: So the AC looks a million times worse than what
Speaker 3: he did. I can't agree the worse the dishes he
Speaker 3: looks out far he's skaped does look worse. I'll give
Speaker 3: you that.
Speaker 4: I'll stand firm on saying that wasn't a soft cross
Speaker 4: check by Hughes, but that was worse.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the at very least it's a penalty.
Speaker 5: And the dp O S and the Department of Player
Speaker 5: Safety said this morning nothing for.
Speaker 3: Eck Well, you know what's up? Why now?
Speaker 6: Bill Garrions told Minnesota Radio this morning, Eric she is hurt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is his elbow hurt. I don't know, maybe
Speaker 3: offered a thick head. You know what's going on here,
Speaker 3: Kelly Sutherland. Yeah, there's a lot of people. There was
Speaker 3: another played by sure Wood.
Speaker 6: You brought up uh In from overtime with his active
Speaker 6: I love that.
Speaker 3: A lot of people raved about.
Speaker 4: I loved it was so minor hockey. I love that
Speaker 4: moment he's tapping his stick. Oh it was good, or
Speaker 4: moving it back and forth trying to confuse whoever had
Speaker 4: the puck at the time.
Speaker 3: I love that. I love that moment.
Speaker 4: Here you got it here, hold on, Okay, that's not it. Okay,
Speaker 4: don't worry, it is it.
Speaker 3: This is it? Okay, hold on, give me, give me,
Speaker 3: give me point five second.
Speaker 4: This was in overtime. He for sure had found himself
Speaker 4: as the only man back on it. It was on
Speaker 4: a two on one, and this is how he is
Speaker 4: a forward, what you know, trying to confuse.
Speaker 3: Did a great job. He did was outstanding. That was
Speaker 3: a lot of fun. I love the head fakes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of fun. It was a great game
Speaker 4: to watch all around. Okay, we're good, Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 3: Well supplies last. All right, Rick, good to hear you ready?
Speaker 1: Is it just me?
Speaker 5: Uh Dave from Lake Couch and is it just me?
Speaker 5: How to Kirk McLean's career going Carolina once the pressure
Speaker 5: was off? Maybe pressure is a good thing.
Speaker 4: There you go, well that, but that goes against your argument.
Speaker 3: But Kirk McLean, where was he when he got traded
Speaker 3: at the tail end of his career?
Speaker 4: And he did go on to play with a couple
Speaker 4: of other teams Florida, and you forget that he ended.
Speaker 3: Up with the Rangers as well, did he?
Speaker 4: Which is strange given ninety four?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Is it just me?
Speaker 4: This is Austin and Abbey. I think I'm getting that right?
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 4: Or are the Canucks hurting themselves by keeping everything tight
Speaker 4: to the vest or chest in regards to jasus tight
Speaker 4: to the vester chest, I'm asking you to the vest
Speaker 4: tied to the.
Speaker 3: Chest or vest in regards to J. T.
Speaker 4: Miller moving on, a lot of crazy rumors flying around,
Speaker 4: and the organization is partially to blame.
Speaker 5: Sure they are because there was no clarity in the
Speaker 5: tweet that announced that he was leaving. The moment you
Speaker 5: don't give clarity, that's when the millions of rumors go crazy.
Speaker 4: But then you also say you also say that it's
Speaker 4: nobody's business.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, there. If the Canucks want to come out
Speaker 5: with a tweet saying J. T. Miller is leaving for
Speaker 5: these reasons, they.
Speaker 3: Didn't do it.
Speaker 4: It is interesting that they didn't do. On the heels
Speaker 4: of a benching, right.
Speaker 5: Oh, there is no questions. You can't deny that that said,
Speaker 5: you cannot deny. This all happened forty eight hours after
Speaker 5: he got benched against Nashville.
Speaker 4: Okay, is it just me Eric the greenskeeper? You mentioned
Speaker 4: this Ryan off the air. I believe Tyler Myers deserves
Speaker 4: applause for his even up crosscheck on Ck, his cross
Speaker 4: check on Ck. Good on you, Tyler for standing up
Speaker 4: for a teammate.
Speaker 3: Well, absolutely anything else. No, it's a good tweet. It's
Speaker 3: a very good tweet.
Speaker 5: I got one too from news Nick Sidney Crosby has
Speaker 5: never had social media and should teach a class to
Speaker 5: the next generational hockey players who don't need social media
Speaker 5: to be successful. Why do hockey players go on social
Speaker 5: media do and then bitch and wine and complain because
Speaker 5: people are ripping them?
Speaker 3: Good question.
Speaker 4: Well, you just said, Doc a couple of seconds ago,
Speaker 4: you said players are bug by, what's going on in
Speaker 4: social media?
Speaker 3: Why don't they all do what Crosby does.
Speaker 5: Exactly, don't go on social media and then don't bitch
Speaker 5: and wine because you're getting ripped on social media by
Speaker 5: the media and the fans.
Speaker 4: But that is interesting about Crosby. Nothing on social media.
Speaker 3: That is a great example.
Speaker 4: Things are going well for sid Yes, one of the
Speaker 4: at maybe not this year. In Pitts players all time,
Speaker 4: Johnny and Victoria.
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 4: But I went to high school with the guy whose
Speaker 4: first name was Ek interesting ek, So.
Speaker 5: His first name was Eck. Yes, but this guy's last
Speaker 5: name is at the right end is Eric's and k
Speaker 5: Okay boom?
Speaker 4: What if it was just Ac and nothing else?
Speaker 3: Just ek? Yeah? Yeah, just K could be a band name,
Speaker 3: just K, just dak.
Speaker 5: Simple solution, Rick from Princeton, BC. If you can't stand
Speaker 5: the heat, get out of.
Speaker 3: The kitchen again. That goes against your argument. They're not
Speaker 3: shooting at me. They're not. This isn't targeted saying Dolly Wall.
Speaker 5: What they're saying is, I'm telling you that some players
Speaker 5: have an issue with social media and maybe get.
Speaker 4: Off or just the attention they receiving a hot, hot.
Speaker 5: Canadian market And yeah, absolutely go ahead.
Speaker 4: This is unsigned and it's really good. Regarding the Golden
Speaker 4: Bat proposal, is it just me? Or if you want gimmicky,
Speaker 4: allow the opposition NHL team to choose players for the shootout.
Speaker 4: Wouldn't that be interesting that out of your pipets spoken,
Speaker 4: so you know you you picked the obviously you'd go
Speaker 4: to the you know, the sixth or seventh defenseman first, right, Yeah,
Speaker 4: you know what if that guy scores, that'd be kind
Speaker 4: of fun.
Speaker 3: No kidding, No, not gonna happen. But is it just me?
Speaker 5: Hockey players are humans At the end of the day.
Speaker 5: Money doesn't buy happiness or make mental health issues any
Speaker 5: less difficult, Scott. Great submission here by Scott. These guys, Donnie,
Speaker 5: I don't care how many millions they make. They got
Speaker 5: the same issues you.
Speaker 3: And I got, except for the financial ones. You don't
Speaker 3: know that are Are they blowing their money? They well,
Speaker 3: that's that's another you.
Speaker 5: Know, that's another issue, right, so, but they are. They
Speaker 5: are allowed to have breakdowns and mental breakdowns like we do.
Speaker 3: They're allowed.
Speaker 4: But a lot of regular having a lot of people
Speaker 4: have those sorts of issues because of something that's.
Speaker 3: Going on financially in their lives. Yep, No, that's true.
Speaker 4: Is it just me?
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna read it.
Speaker 4: I agree with don I wake up every day at
Speaker 4: five am and go to work to support my wife
Speaker 4: and three kids that have done so for fifteen plus years.
Speaker 4: I'm twenty years for retirement and will continue to do
Speaker 4: so until that. I don't make millions, and.
Speaker 3: It gets harder every year. Yep, there you go. Absolutely,
Speaker 3: I'm signed.
Speaker 5: By the way, is there any substance to the rumor
Speaker 5: that management is going to put the Canucks in a
Speaker 5: downtown hotel because they can't win at.
Speaker 4: Home, They can't forward, can't afford it this weekend?
Speaker 3: You got an order. That's where billion's done.
Speaker 4: Give me a break, Taylor Swift the hotel rooms man,
Speaker 4: man's gonna my kids will go to the game one
Speaker 4: o'clock one. I'm not even aware of this, Ryan, Do
Speaker 4: you know what time is Taylor Swift concert on Sunday?
Speaker 3: No, it's it's one o'clock. That's the game.
Speaker 6: Doors are I don't know that doors will be like
Speaker 6: she's on a seven thirty I think or something, because okay,
Speaker 6: she plays with doors hours, so seven thirty or eight
Speaker 6: or something like that. So Sunday won't be as much
Speaker 6: of a headache because I don't think. I mean, people
Speaker 6: might go down early for the concert, but it won't
Speaker 6: be as bad. Tomorrow night is gonna or Friday night,
Speaker 6: story is going to be crazy down here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Omar, thanks for that. We need to break. By
Speaker 3: the way, Omar, our beautius.
Speaker 4: Ridge is it just me if I read this already,
Speaker 4: I can't remember the most dangerous quality of the Knucks
Speaker 4: have is that they performed best when under adversity. The
Speaker 4: road trip and even last year's playoffs examples of that
Speaker 4: last year's playoffs with out demco. What happens when everyone
Speaker 4: is healthy and they don't have a chip on their
Speaker 4: shoulder anymore. That's an interesting submission by OMAR. They do
