Why? 22 00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:00.439 And before anybody gets scared, because he was sick last 23 00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:05.000 week and everything this is see Donnie never misses a 24 00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.760 day that he's owed off. Okay, So when I was 25 00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.799 off for the birth of my son Ben Ben, yes, 26 00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:14.400 Donnie worked the Friday. 27 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:16.040 Yes, because I was off. 28 00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:17.959 He didn't forget that. So then he. 29 00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.680 Put that in his brain and needed it to be 30 00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:23.920 made whole. And so that is what is happening today. 31 00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:26.200 And then this Friday, you're off. 32 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:26.920 I'm off. 33 00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:29.200 You're going to the Big Smoke, your second home. You're 34 00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:29.840 going to Toronto. 35 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:32.239 I got stuff. I got stuff to do in Toronto. 36 00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.680 So Donnie's gonna work this Friday, and I believe he'll 37 00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.840 be off again next Monday because he never misses a day. 38 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.359 Off, so he's got to get those days off. 39 00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.159 He's apparently very busy today. He might be detailing his 40 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.560 car for rumors that I'm hearing in. 41 00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:49.519 The sailing car. You take it, he's not going to 42 00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:50.159 do it himself. 43 00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.000 Well, that's a good point. That's a good point. 44 00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:54.519 But there was an incident involving his vehicle that somebody 45 00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:56.200 in the studio might have been responsible for. 46 00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:59.480 I left I left my fat my five guy Burger 47 00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.799 rapper in car last night, and this morning I walked outside. 48 00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:04.959 His doors were open because the bear went in there, and. 49 00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.400 We might have a very angry don Taylor back on 50 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:12.159 the show tomorrow. 51 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.319 You left after this, You left Burgers Rap? 52 00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:15.560 Yeah. 53 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:17.319 I went to Rap Guys yesterday and I left my 54 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.080 wrappers in his car, and so the bear smells the burger. 55 00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:22.080 He left his car unlocked. So it's like fifty to 56 00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:23.439 fifty of whose fault it really was? 57 00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:30.400 That? Oh boy, Yeah, amazing trouble now, So we'll see 58 00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:32.639 what kind of mood Donnie is in tomorrow. 59 00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:35.919 Rick, Can you believe it? It's World Cup week? The 60 00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.919 World Cup is here. Yes, I came with it. It's 61 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.800 it's crazy, you know, we've for so long, it's been 62 00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:43.960 in twenty twenty six. It'll be here or you know, 63 00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.319 six months from now, it'll be here. It's here man. 64 00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:50.879 Friday noon, Canada's first match in Toronto as they take 65 00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:55.280 on Bosnia at twelve o'clock our time. Then of course 66 00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.719 things shift here to Vancouver. But the World Cup it 67 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:02.080 actually opens Thursday in Mexico City at noon our time. 68 00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.759 Mexico takes on South Africa. That's the first match of 69 00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:08.479 the World Cup. But Canada gets things underway noon on Friday. 70 00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:10.479 We'll maybe talk a little bit more about that and 71 00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:14.000 their injury situation, which every day it seems to get 72 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.039 worse somehow. As the show goes along, we do have 73 00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:21.120 a jam packed show, and by jam packed it's guests wise, 74 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.000 we're jam packed we've got Elliott Frieman coming up at 75 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.639 eleven from Vegas, Elliet. It'll talk about all the things 76 00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.280 happening with the Stanley Cup Final and other league matters. 77 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:33.120 Team broke the trade request and that had a new 78 00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:36.840 chapter to today. We'll talk about that. Scott Wheelers going 79 00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:40.199 to join us around ten thirty. He of course, he 80 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:42.000 was alm with us about a month ago. Rick, he's 81 00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:46.719 the prospects writer for the Athletic National prospects reporter for 82 00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:49.400 the Athletic and he was in Buffalo over the weekend 83 00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:51.560 for the NHL Draft combine. 84 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:53.120 So we'll talk to Scott about that coming up to 85 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:53.599 ten thirty. 86 00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.800 But next in our next segment is CEO and President 87 00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:04.400 Rick of the Sports Corporation NHL Agency. He's NHL agent 88 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:06.639 as well to the stars he's got speaking of the 89 00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:11.759 Santa Cup Final, Logan stan Covid, Seth Jarvis, you'r Slevkowski, 90 00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:16.279 Brandon Point. But he also represents Brendan Gallagher and that's 91 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.000 why we have Jerry Johansson on the show in our 92 00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:22.959 next segment to talk about Brendan and full disclosure. We 93 00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:27.759 take this interview around nine fifteen this morning, and he 94 00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.160 revealed a very interesting nugget rick when it comes to 95 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:31.800 the Vancouver Canucks and Brendan Gallagher. 96 00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:34.439 Well, I've been talking to Jerry since Friday and he 97 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:38.120 got permission from Montreal to talk to teams about Brendan Gallagher. 98 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.600 Brendan Gallagher mentioned in Montreal that he wants to play 99 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:43.839 in Vancouver. It's his home, his dad runs the Delta Academy, 100 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.639 it's you know, he lives in the twas In area. 101 00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:51.120 So Jerry Johansson got permission to talk to teams over 102 00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:53.959 the weekend. He met with Brendan and Montreal for breakfast. 103 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:56.879 They went over a bunch of teams on the list 104 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.519 that Brendan said I would like to go to. Obviously 105 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:03.759 Vancouver one of them. So Johansen did call the Vancouver Canucks. 106 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.279 He's already called the Canucks, and the Canucks have showed 107 00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:09.120 interests a lot of moving parts. And when I say 108 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.839 moving parts, the drafts coming out. They were busy with 109 00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:14.800 the combine all that stuff, So that's what I meant 110 00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:17.879 by moving parts. But the Canucks are showing interests in 111 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:20.160 Brendan Gallagher. They want to improve the dressing room, they 112 00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:22.800 want to improve the culture that Caducks dressing them in 113 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.279 the past two years, we're stressing him in the National 114 00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.439 Hockey League. This new regime is going to fix that, 115 00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.240 and you can help fix that with guys like Brendan Gallagher. 116 00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.360 But he's got one year left at six point five 117 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:37.720 million on his contract, which could be troublesome for some teams. 118 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.839 The good thing to know here is that the Montreal 119 00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.480 Canadians are really helping in the process for Jerry and 120 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:46.040 Brandon to try to make this happen and find him 121 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.399 a new home. So there is a list of teams 122 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.759 that Brendan's got, Vancouver's on him. They're not the only 123 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:54.519 team on it, but the process has started. Jerry has 124 00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:58.759 called Vancouver and Vancouver has told him there is interest. 125 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.759 They could have said no, you know, I see this all. Yeah, 126 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:03.920 they could have said no, yes because of the price 127 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.920 tags yes boy five million. But the initial response from 128 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:09.720 the Canucks is yes, we have interest. 129 00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:13.199 That's an interesting point, Rick, because you know, I think 130 00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:16.959 sometimes people go two plus two weeks four. It doesn't 131 00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:19.399 always happen that way, right, Look, it doesn't just because 132 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.279 Brendan Gallagher says he wants to come from here, just 133 00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:22.680 because of. 134 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:23.600 All those things. Happened. 135 00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:26.399 Maybe Ryan Johnson and the Canucks don't want to take 136 00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.600 up a roster spot for Brendan Gallagher. No disrespect to Brendan, 137 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.000 but you know, maybe they maybe they have somebody else 138 00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:34.240 carved out for that space. 139 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:36.480 All of those things. 140 00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:40.800 Soul is diminished, he's a little bit older, but boyle boy. 141 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:43.079 But the fact we're hearing that there is interest from 142 00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.399 the Canucks that is that, you know, affirms things that, yeah, 143 00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:50.439 maybe this marriage will end up happening. It's it's it's 144 00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:54.120 funny because in years past, Rick, that's six and a 145 00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:56.839 half million that could have got the Canucks like a 146 00:06:56.920 --> 00:06:59.839 first round draft pick from Montreal, right if you because 147 00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.120 if because of the flat cap and you know, they're 148 00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.759 obviously in a much different position than Montreal is and 149 00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:08.079 all those things, and so that's not gonna happen this 150 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:08.639 time around. 151 00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.759 I don't know what a trade will end up looking like. 152 00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:14.040 But they're not they're the habs don't have They're not like, 153 00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:15.920 oh my goodness, we're pressed up against it. This is 154 00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:17.480 the guy we got to move, So we're gonna pay 155 00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:19.959 a premium to get off. Right, That's not happening anymore. 156 00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:22.480 With the way the cap is going bonkers through the roof. 157 00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.240 So the Cannucks. By the way, I for wondering, I 158 00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:26.240 think according to puck Beatia, they got twenty one and 159 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:29.800 a half twenty one million of CAP space for next season. 160 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:32.279 But Ryan Johnson said on the weekend in an interview, 161 00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:34.040 we're not gonna spend crazy. 162 00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:35.519 They're not gonna splash money around. 163 00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:37.680 They're not gonna spend They're not gonna be after the 164 00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:40.519 Alex Tucks of the world. If Tuck hits so July first, 165 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.040 they're not gonna spend a whack of money on July first, 166 00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:45.160 like some of the previous regimes have here in the 167 00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:46.399 last six seventy eight years. 168 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.120 Just quickly, while we're on that subject, because this is 169 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:56.639 something you've brought up previously. Michael mccaron out of Minnesota. Yeah, uh, 170 00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.920 he is appending UFA. He came over at the tre 171 00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:04.600 deadline from Nashville to Minnesota. Joe Smith and Michael Russo 172 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:07.279 at the Athletic this morning dropped their mail bag where 173 00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:10.399 they take fans questions and they respond to them, and 174 00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:13.600 one of them was about mccarran's future, and they are 175 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:16.519 both reporting. Russo and Smith are reporting that it looks 176 00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:19.439 as though he's close to re signing in Minnesota on 177 00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:22.560 a long term contract. They threw out the numbers of 178 00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:24.680 three and a half million per season with a five 179 00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:27.959 or six year term. So and by the way, that 180 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:30.639 discussion he wanted to stay in Minnesota made it clear 181 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:32.679 he likes the Midwest all those things, so it lined 182 00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:33.279 up for him. 183 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:35.200 Maybe that's why he's jumping the que not going to 184 00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:35.600 dry for. 185 00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:38.879 He say, he's a massive, massive center who you know, 186 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:40.840 he can duke it out with all the best. He 187 00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:43.200 kills penalties. He played higher up in the lineup for 188 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.559 Minnesota in the playoffs. He could play third line center, 189 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:49.039 So boy, there was going to be a lineup. I 190 00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:50.799 heard there was going to be a lineup for the 191 00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:52.799 guy on July first. If he hit July first, it 192 00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:54.120 doesn't look like he's gonna do it. 193 00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:59.120 So over the weekend, Rick NHLD Draft Combine happening in Buffalo. 194 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.639 This is where the physical testing and the interviews happened 195 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:05.320 at the back half of the week. I think the 196 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.240 testing portion of it happened on Saturday. Where you see 197 00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:11.480 these guys on the bike, they do their vertical jumps, 198 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:14.639 pull ups, all these sorts of things, and then they 199 00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:19.279 interview with the teams, and so you've been hearing things 200 00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:21.519 out of that draft combine. Again, this is the first 201 00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:23.759 chance for a lot of teams to sit down with 202 00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.840 players one on one and have an interview with them 203 00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:29.200 essentially and ask them a whole bunch of questions. So 204 00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:31.600 what did you hear out of the combine from the weekend? 205 00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:33.559 Well, first of all, look, I want to say this, 206 00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.080 two and a half weeks we are away from one 207 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:38.879 of the biggest drafts in Canucks franchise history. Third overall, 208 00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:41.240 pick twenty fourth overall, pick four picks in the top 209 00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:43.919 twenty one ten picks overall. This is going to help 210 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:49.080 Ryan kickstart the rebuild. The combines over interviews, testing all done, 211 00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.720 all the data has been compiled. It's going to be 212 00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:53.960 fun to see how this shapes out. The four guys 213 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:55.720 to keep an eye on if you're a Canucks fan 214 00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:01.440 are Gavin McKenna, Caleb maholtra At, Chase Reed, and Ivar Stenberg. 215 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:04.159 Those are the four I think if you're a Canuck 216 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.879 and I'm gonna say something about Chase Reid. Early in 217 00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:10.879 the season, the Canucks had Verhoff ranked really high. Chase 218 00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:14.399 Reid came out from behind. And I'm telling you, Ryan, 219 00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:17.919 he has climbed and climbed and climbed. He's a defenseman. Yeah, 220 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.320 out of Sue Saint Marie. But he passed all the 221 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:21.799 other defenseman for the Canucks. 222 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:22.200 Again. 223 00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:25.799 Verhoff was so high on that list early in the season. 224 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.679 But Caleb maholtre we all know the connection to Manny, 225 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:30.960 the new Canucks head coach. So they took some of 226 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.240 these guys out for dinner, right, yep, right, So you know, 227 00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:38.000 I don't know which one of these guys at dinner, 228 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:41.240 Uh they took out, but I heard one of the 229 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:48.039 prospects ordered, Uh wohoo, wagog you rehearse, just stop. You 230 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.559 think of a steak expert, sit. 231 00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:54.039 Again, Wagu wagu steak. Yeah, it's a big deal. It's Japanese. 232 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.080 I think it's the top end cut of steak. 233 00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.519 It is. It's a top end steak. Yeah. So how 234 00:10:58.600 --> 00:10:59.279 much would this state? 235 00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:01.759 Cause do Quinn did some research? 236 00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:05.960 You found a steaks a picture of Wahoo, or you 237 00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:08.919 found a steak cooast Though Quinn Quinn found a steakhoast 238 00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:12.639 in Buffalo and one of their specialties, if not their specialty, 239 00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:14.399 is Wagu steak. 240 00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.480 So I was told I don't know which one. I 241 00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:20.519 was just told one of these kids ordered a Wagu 242 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:23.919 or wag. This is a this is it? 243 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:25.519 Yeah, that's a wagon premium. 244 00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:27.879 So it's from Japan. Yeah, it's supposed to be one 245 00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.639 of the best steaks in the world. Yeah wow yeah, 246 00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.039 way is that the size of the portion you get 247 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:36.279 the you know, the different size the ninety dollars steak 248 00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:37.879 at the restaurant's only a six ounce. 249 00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:40.600 Yeah. See that's how that's joke. 250 00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:43.679 I'm paying ninety bucks for this wagon for six inces, 251 00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:45.240 and and it's. 252 00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:47.399 Half of this I believe probably you probably get some 253 00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:48.679 mashed potatoes or vegetables. 254 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:51.200 I don't care about the side dish. How big is 255 00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:53.200 the actual steak? Quinn? Six ounces? 256 00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:53.759 Six ounces? 257 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:58.200 That's that's probably that's probably just the cut of it. 258 00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:00.000 An eight ounce or a ten ounce steak or something 259 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:05.080 that's gotta be. But see, so here's the thing. Okay, 260 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.440 so this is what I'm curious about. Okay, So you're 261 00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.840 the player, because again you're being tested by everything that 262 00:12:10.919 --> 00:12:12.120 you do, right, it's a. 263 00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:16.120 Test by the organization. I'm not ordering the most expensive thing. 264 00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:19.559 That's a test that's a test. 265 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.080 That's not a test. Yes, no, I you know what. 266 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:25.440 I asked a couple of scouts about these dinners, and 267 00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:28.679 I'm gonna tell you something. How do they treat the waitresses? 268 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:30.120 Do they say please? 269 00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:30.399 Sure? 270 00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:33.159 Yeah, thank you?

You 338 00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:25.759 don't know if I'm right or wrong. I it sounds 339 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:29.639 close Solakowski, Maxim. I think he's one of the tallest 340 00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:35.120 guys okay draft Uh he is, well if he's six 341 00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:38.519 foot seven, six seven. But there's two guys in Ontario 342 00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:40.559 right now. I think one guy's six 's eight. But 343 00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:43.559 I know the Canucks interviewed six foot seven London Knight's 344 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.360 defenseman Maxim Solakowski at the combine. We'll see where Maxim 345 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:49.320 Solakowski go. 346 00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:51.600 Yeah, and it's interesting. We'll talk more about this is 347 00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:53.679 the show goes along, because Drant's had a big piece 348 00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:56.200 at the Athletic talking about guys they had interviewed for 349 00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.240 that twenty fourth pick, Rick the second that the second 350 00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:03.120 of the two first rounders, and some names that they 351 00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.399 talk to at the combine. But the one interesting thing was, 352 00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:08.639 you know, and you bring this up with the with 353 00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.000 the volume of picks they have this year, they had 354 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:13.399 the most interviews probably they've ever had as an organization 355 00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:15.360 because they got to talk to everybody under the side 356 00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:16.759 and because of all these picks. 357 00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:17.639 It's a great thing. 358 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:21.080 The right thing. By the way, they can't afford any 359 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.960 misses at this draft. No, the first four picks have 360 00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:26.159 to play in the NHL. Like, there's a lot of 361 00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:28.759 pressure on this draft, I think, but four picks in 362 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:32.240 the top forty one, so the margin for air is small. 363 00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:34.840 Oh yeah, it's non exist especially that top one. Can 364 00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:38.039 you imagine if they whiff on this third overall draft pick. 365 00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:39.720 I can't imagine. 366 00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:40.039 Actually. 367 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:43.799 On the other side, as mentioned, Jerry Johansson, NHL agent 368 00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.360 and president and CEO of the Sports Corporation's gonna join 369 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:48.679 us talk about Brendan Gallagher. 370 00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:49.559 I don't know if we mentioned this. 371 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:52.279 He also represents Jonathan Karamaki, so he's gonna tell us 372 00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:55.360 about the Karamaki's off stating updated updated Now he's doing 373 00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.399 the shoulder all of that. So we'll talk to Jerry 374 00:16:57.440 --> 00:16:59.679 on the other side.
