Speaker 3: be the winner of a two man loose.
Speaker 4: And Rick Dolly Wall I had a cherry tree up
Speaker 4: a little Ricky.
Speaker 1: I used to go up that tree and just sit.

Speaker 3: Ryan Henderson is our producer. He's the man of the controls.
Speaker 3: Our director. Who's that over there? Has it been here
Speaker 3: for a while? The Voice of God previously Vaca Derek Want,
Speaker 3: how are you lovely?
Speaker 1: Couldn't be better?
Speaker 3: What a weekend? Oh too hot for you? About the weather?
Speaker 4: I got the tank top out yesterday and walked the
Speaker 4: dog with the tank top for the first time, it
Speaker 4: was glory like your tank tops. Hey, you gotta have
Speaker 4: shoulders or you can't wear a tank top if you
Speaker 4: don't have shoulders.
Speaker 3: I have shoulders help.
Speaker 4: Shoulders help when you're wearing a tank But I see
Speaker 4: skinny guys wearing tank tops.
Speaker 3: It's not what's wrong with that. They do.
Speaker 1: Stop.
Speaker 4: You gotta have arms and shoulders if you're gonna wear
Speaker 4: a tank top.
Speaker 3: Bottom line, having arms and shoulders help when you're wearing
Speaker 3: any type of shirt. Really, yes, Okay, So moving on.
Speaker 3: It was a spectacular weekend weatherwise, and pretty nice today
Speaker 3: as well. So the Canucks GM slash president search, whatever
Speaker 3: you want to call it, another chapter, Another name is involved.
Speaker 3: Now I understand the Canucks have interviewed in person former
Speaker 3: Ottawa senators GM here Dorian.
Speaker 4: This one came out of the blue yesterday, Donnie. This
Speaker 4: one was a name that just popped up yesterday and nobody.
Speaker 4: He wasn't on the radar for anybody. And we find
Speaker 4: out yesterday that he's been in Vancouver for a second interview.
Speaker 4: A child of four knows that if you get interviewed twice,
Speaker 4: it's a serious Was.
Speaker 3: He wearing a tank top?
Speaker 4: A child of four anybody could figure out that when
Speaker 4: you get interviewed a second time for a job, it's
Speaker 4: usually it's a serious thing. But anyway, thanks for that. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I know, but somebody was praising somebody for saying that. Anyways,
Speaker 4: the point is he got a second interview. All guys
Speaker 4: getting second interviews, common sense tells you that they're pretty
Speaker 4: serious candidates. And the Canucks like what they did in
Speaker 4: the first interview.
Speaker 3: Fifty three years old Senators GM twenty sixteen to twenty
Speaker 3: twenty three. They made the playoffs just once in that time,
Speaker 3: and then he left in disgrace. There was a situation
Speaker 3: where there was an investigation revealing the Sins failed to
Speaker 3: share him from me about a no trade list for
Speaker 3: this came up fairly. If Jenny had dad enough, ye,
Speaker 3: that's it.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 3: He was traded from to Vegas in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3: So but I think the lesson we're learning over the weekend,
Speaker 3: or the lesson we learn over the weekend, is that
Speaker 3: you can be involved in a scandal and you can
Speaker 3: be just absolutely horrible at your job and still be
Speaker 3: a candidate elsewhere for a national hockey league general matters
Speaker 3: a position. Look at John Jacob.
Speaker 4: The Maple Leafs just hired a guy who hasn't worked
Speaker 4: in six years and has been running Wendy's six years
Speaker 4: out of the hockey. Well, you should explain that he owns,
Speaker 4: he owns. Okay, we'll still done. Hockey is running Wendy's,
Speaker 4: which you know, hey, it's a job, No.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 3: It's a business.
Speaker 4: For it's a business because you know, the money's got
Speaker 4: to work, any money coming in, money coming out. But
Speaker 4: and then Dorian has worked in two years. It's very
Speaker 4: interesting to see don some of the names are getting
Speaker 4: opportunities in the GMT.
Speaker 3: More about John Chaker right now his press conference, introductory
Speaker 3: press conference is going on as we speak, I believe
Speaker 3: in Toronto. Matt Senden also hired as part of that
Speaker 3: front office group. But let's let's update our list of
Speaker 3: Canucks GM president candidates. Derek we got that. There you go,
Speaker 3: he's no longer on vacation. There he is. He came
Speaker 3: up with this.
Speaker 4: Now what a great list it is. Ryan Johnson at
Speaker 4: the top. We'll talk about him in a second. Shane Doan.
Speaker 4: We keep hearing his name as president. Evan Gold I'm
Speaker 4: going to talk about in a second Jamie Langer Bruner
Speaker 4: that he both work in Boston, Ryan Bonas and peterre Dorien.
Speaker 3: But so you've eliminated names from this and you've and
Speaker 3: you've added to it. Ryan Bonas we took off this
Speaker 3: list last week. Now he's back on right, what's happening there.
Speaker 4: Ryan Bonus has got a pretty good relationship with Shane Doan.
Speaker 4: They go back, and so if Shane Doan is indeed
Speaker 4: going to be the president, I'm sure, pretty sure he's
Speaker 4: got something to say about Ryan Bonus, who is with
Speaker 4: the Islanders right now. Rick Bonus's son. But Donnie. The
Speaker 4: guy that I like on this list and I think
Speaker 4: has really impressed the Canucks and interviews is Evan Gold.
Speaker 4: I would call him a series candidate in Vancouver.
Speaker 3: Gold.
Speaker 4: I think one of the things that appeals to Vancouver
Speaker 4: ownership about Gold is he did a quick retool in Boston.
Speaker 4: But oh god, exactly, but let me throw this that Yet,
Speaker 4: when you have Jeremy Swayman, Charlie McAvoy and David Pasternak
Speaker 4: three studs, it's not hard to retool. But one thing
Speaker 4: I'll say about Gold, He's articulate, smart, comes from a
Speaker 4: winning culture talk to a lot of agents over the
Speaker 4: weekend about Gold. They all think he's a sharp guy.
Speaker 4: I didn't like. And what do gms have to do?
Speaker 4: They got to deal with agents. A lot of agents
Speaker 4: think this guy's a sharp dude. I do get that feeling.
Speaker 4: I didn't get anybody bows to agents what they want.
Speaker 4: But I got agents who ripped people in the hockey
Speaker 4: world too, saying he's clueless, he doesn't know what he's doing.
Speaker 4: They're not saying that about Evan Gold. I'm getting a
Speaker 4: lot of good feedback.
Speaker 3: But the last time they hired a GM from Boston
Speaker 3: that worked out well.
Speaker 1: Not good at all.
Speaker 4: But Jim Betting was the guy the But I'm just
Speaker 4: saying that Evan Gold's in there fighting.
Speaker 1: I think he's So how.
Speaker 3: Is he better than Ryan Johnson?
Speaker 1: Touch it?
Speaker 3: And Ryan Johnson has been an incredibly solid foot soldier
Speaker 3: one hundred percent more than a foot soldier that long
Speaker 3: phrase for a significant period of time. So how is
Speaker 3: Evan Gold better? And Ryan Johnson knows the personnel better
Speaker 3: than Evan Gold? I'm pretty sure about that.
Speaker 4: I wonder the longer this goes on, you wonder about
Speaker 4: Ryan Johnson's chances. I've not heard much about him. I'm
Speaker 4: hearing about all these other guys. I haven't heard about
Speaker 4: Ryan Johnson. I'm hearing a lot about other candidates. But
Speaker 4: I will say to you that if Ryan Johnson doesn't
Speaker 4: get it, I just don't know how he sticks around.
Speaker 4: He's been here thirteen years. If you can't, if you,
Speaker 4: it's insulting if you. If you can, they're already blocked
Speaker 4: him from talking to Nashville. If you you know, if
Speaker 4: you get bypassed here, if you're Ryan Johnson, I don't
Speaker 4: see a world where he sticks around because if he
Speaker 4: can't get the GM job after working for this owner
Speaker 4: for thirteen years, he's never going to get it. He's
Speaker 4: never going to get it.
Speaker 3: Jamie Langmburne is sticking around also from the Boston organization.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a smart guy. That his first interview was
Speaker 4: well done. I mean he's a sharp dude too. But
Speaker 4: one thing about Boston you can say, don you know
Speaker 4: they they just when you think they're out, they do
Speaker 4: get back in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: Father three, Yeah, well.
Speaker 1: They get back in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: But well, I mean the fact that you use the
Speaker 3: word retool is frightening. Yeah, to Vancouver, but I'm telling
Speaker 3: you what golden do not the R word people want
Speaker 3: to hear. Yeah, no, and I get that, but I
Speaker 3: don't think the one thing I did hear this interview
Speaker 3: process is really given ownership an eye opening perspective.
Speaker 4: They needed to hear the team's not good. They needed
Speaker 4: to hear there's not much an abbey.
Speaker 1: They needed to hear.
Speaker 3: They needed to hear, Oh, they did. They didn't look
Speaker 3: at the standing.
Speaker 4: No, but hold it a second. They needed to hear
Speaker 4: other than Brandon Coots, Uh, there's not many.
Speaker 1: High end prospects. They needed to hear that.
Speaker 4: And I was told candidates told them that there's a
Speaker 4: long way to go. How could they not tell okay,
Speaker 4: but okay, Donny. They needed to hear that. It's been
Speaker 4: an eye opening process for the owners. It's been an
Speaker 4: eye opening process for the owners.
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 3: Hold on a second. You're saying it's been an eye
Speaker 3: opening process for the owners that someone told them that
Speaker 3: they're not very good.
Speaker 4: No, that more than one person told them done. Do
Speaker 4: you think how is that eye opening? If fifteen to
Speaker 4: twenty people tell you, hey, you guys are a mess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 3: They know that.
Speaker 1: Stop God, and they don't think they know that.
Speaker 3: If they don't, they got to get out of the
Speaker 3: hockey business. Well, donny, look at the last fifteen although
Speaker 3: they're on the right track now, it seemed to be.
Speaker 4: Donny, look at the last fifteen years. Since twenty eleven,
Speaker 4: two times they made the playoffs. I don't count the
Speaker 4: bubble because they got lucky, but I mean they need
Speaker 4: to know it's been an eye opening process for him.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's okay. Ray Whitney is another name that is
Speaker 3: not going away. All right, Ray Whitney. So here's what
Speaker 3: I was told. There's not on the list though the
Speaker 3: new GM will pick his own stre said, maybe he
Speaker 3: is on the in vacation mode.
Speaker 4: The new GM will pick his own staff in Vancouver.
Speaker 4: But wouldn't surprise me if the Canucks try and bring
Speaker 4: in people that interviewed earlier. For I heard Ray Whitney had.
Speaker 3: A great interring in as a GM.
Speaker 4: No no, no, not assistant GM or in some sort
Speaker 4: of role. The new GM's going to hire. Ray Whitney's
Speaker 4: not into the last Okay, but I'm just saying he
Speaker 4: interviewed so well. It wouldn't surprise me if they somehow
Speaker 4: find a way to get him into the organization.
Speaker 3: All as yes say is guys, look at the standings.
Speaker 3: You're not very good.
Speaker 1: You're not very good. You're not very good.
Speaker 3: So okay. So Ray Whitney is close with Shane Jane
Speaker 3: don Shane Doan has been a special advisor or an
Speaker 3: advisor to the GM Brad Tree living in this case,
Speaker 3: who's been fired by the lease special advisor to the
Speaker 3: GM in Toronto. Why wasn't he considered for the Toronto
Speaker 3: job either what Matt Sendeen is up to president or
Speaker 3: whatever his title is, or the general manager job. And
Speaker 3: yet he seems to be a much stronger Well, yeah,
Speaker 3: he's obviously a stronger candidate in Vancouver. I don't get that.
Speaker 3: Or is it a done deal? Is he is he
Speaker 3: coming to Vancouver as president as a replacement for Jim
Speaker 3: Rutherford because his resume screams president versus GM.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes it does, it does.
Speaker 4: And Shane Doan is just like Trevor Lindon when he
Speaker 4: got the job, well respected guy coming in as president
Speaker 4: and hoping to change the culture, all that stuff. Doney
Speaker 4: and Shane Doan. I I would be hard pressed to
Speaker 4: find someone in hockey that doesn't say something nice about him.
Speaker 3: He is really a screams the leader. Yeah, great presence,
Speaker 3: not that that counts for everything, but there's certainly hockey
Speaker 3: experience there and just screams the leader and they need
Speaker 3: to sell this product right now. And I think Shane
Speaker 3: Don would do that. So but I don't. I don't understand.
Speaker 3: And maybe it's you brought this point up the last
Speaker 3: week week, week or two that maybe it's a situation
Speaker 3: where you know, Shane Doan wants to move back to
Speaker 3: western the western part of North America.
Speaker 4: Right, that could be the possibility as well. But Shane
Speaker 4: Doan would not be a bad hire in Vancouver if
Speaker 4: he gets in whatever.
Speaker 3: Fast, just get get it over with right now. Here's
Speaker 3: some advice, you know, quit you know, worrying about people
Speaker 3: telling you how bad you are. Francesco and Jim Shane
Speaker 3: Don president, all right, Ryan Johnson general manager, man named
Speaker 3: Malultra head coach.
Speaker 1: There you go, simple as that?
Speaker 3: What two? Three? You agree with me? There you're going
Speaker 3: on about Evan Gold.
Speaker 4: Stop But I'm telling you what I'm here. And Evan
Speaker 4: Gold is a serious candidate.
Speaker 3: So the Leafs hired John Jaca and the Canucks Evin Gold.
Speaker 3: Ryan Johns in the mix wherever the case may be.
Speaker 3: But I don't know. Mike Gillis what what like? Just
Speaker 3: like he seemed to have the best resume and would
Speaker 3: be like a choice that I think would be really
Speaker 3: popular both amongst Leafs fans and Connucks fans. What happened?
Speaker 4: I'm rehiring, but he hasn't worked since Donnie twenty fourteen,
Speaker 4: and we're ripping Jacob for not working for.
Speaker 5: Six you're interviewing you had.
Speaker 3: They're interviewing Pierre Dorion who has worked in two years. Right,
Speaker 3: So Gillis is a guy that Jacob like, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: Like, and he was interviewed in uh Toronto for a
Speaker 4: lengthy period of time. He didn't get the Toronto gig.
Speaker 4: But I wonder what the relationship was with Gillis and Aquiline.
Speaker 4: Would Acquallini want him back? Would he want him back?
Speaker 3: Don I just all I'm all I'm saying is that
Speaker 3: I get what you're saying. You know, look like be
Speaker 3: going over old ground with with with Mike Gillis. It
Speaker 3: would be I think it would be a popular choice.
Speaker 4: I think I think Gillis and people want to Gilman
Speaker 4: back to and run back the old group, you.
Speaker 3: Know, yeah, yeah, okay, how do we do it for time? Right?
Speaker 3: How are you by the way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, swall I just listen to the Least Press.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, how's that going? O?
Speaker 1: Man? Let me tell you. I tell these got his
Speaker 1: blue glasses on those. So oh he's got a lot of.
Speaker 3: Must be uh, it must be okay. But John Jacob,
Speaker 3: like I thought when they interviewed him.
Speaker 1: Risk by the way, I thought, he's premiering real nervous.
Speaker 3: Well, he's only thirty six years It was twenty six
Speaker 3: years old in Arizona. And I think of that situation,
Speaker 3: like when I heard he was being interviewed, I think
Speaker 3: you felt the same way.
Speaker 1: Rick.
Speaker 3: It's like, okay, formality, they'll you know, they'll give the
Speaker 3: kiddish you know, on the interview and then and then
Speaker 3: move on. He can it's the job he left in disgrace.
Speaker 3: And then Zoni is going from a situation that is
Speaker 3: the exact opposite to Toronto to the least right from
Speaker 3: like nobody cares. It's not being supported. Their expectations there,
Speaker 3: they're none. To Toronto, like you know, hey, let's get going,
Speaker 3: let's perform. Well, all eyes are on you. What what
Speaker 3: a situation. You said he's nervous, no kidding.
Speaker 1: Yeah, appears he's reading his opening remarks and he seems
Speaker 1: very I mean I would be too. It's essentially me.
Speaker 4: That market will eat you live. That that that Toronto market.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? Are you joking me?
Speaker 4: Brian there looking at.
Speaker 1: His last press conference.
Speaker 3: This market's hard, you know, I mean, come on, it's
Speaker 3: a sophomore.
Speaker 1: This market's hard.
Speaker 3: They've got the look at the story, these Simmons there
Speaker 3: and that's about it.
Speaker 4: Donnie, come on, who's gonna it was hard?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard. Question.
Speaker 3: Yeah, better way to you just said what I tell
Speaker 3: you that Keith Pelly today, Wow, he definitely seems that way.
Speaker 4: I told you the Vancouver market's tough. Oh no, it's not.
Speaker 4: It's not. They asked all the candidates, how would you
Speaker 4: deal with the media in Vancouver? Yeah, exactly, it's harder
Speaker 4: here than Toronto. You don't think they asked that in Toronto.
Speaker 4: I think it's harder to the numbers. The numbers are
Speaker 4: overwhelming in Toronto, but you know.
Speaker 1: The center of the universe.
Speaker 4: I mean, are you kidding me?
Speaker 3: I think the media is harder in Montreal and Vancouver. Yeah,
Speaker 3: on their hockey team than in Toronto. Toronto has the
Speaker 3: numbers other than like and Steve Simmons isn't.
Speaker 1: He's kind of out of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, although he wrote a real interesting article about right there.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but if he's nervous, maybe there's a reason.
Speaker 3: Maybe he's intimidated by the Toronto.
Speaker 1: Well, they're also doing it in Real Sports and so
Speaker 1: like apparently like the entire mlsc's staff is in the buildings.
Speaker 3: That's not surprising for people who don't know. Real Sports
Speaker 3: is part of Maples Square. Yeah, right outside the arena. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 3: it's a nice setup. Okay, here's what's coming up on
Speaker 3: the show. We haven't got time for the poll question
Speaker 3: because it has to do with our next guest.
Speaker 1: No, huh, I'm not even what did you just say?
Speaker 1: I did?
Speaker 3: I didn't hear this, you know why, because deep down
Speaker 3: you care more about the leafs and the canal, and
Speaker 3: you're focusing on that press call.
Speaker 1: If it's a train wreck, I like that.
Speaker 3: DTMZ is it just me? Coming up in the next hour,
Speaker 3: Bob Stoffer is going to join us from Chad Radio
Speaker 3: in Edmonton covers the Oilers out of the National Hockey
Speaker 3: League payoffs. They lost to a better team in the
Speaker 3: Anaheim Ducks. And I can't believe I'm saying that. Going
Speaker 3: into that series, I thought that Edmonton was going to
Speaker 3: win it. But you watch that series and you realize
Speaker 3: Anaheim is a very good hockey club right now, better
Speaker 3: than the Oilers.
Speaker 4: And they're young and they're going to be good for years.

Speaker 3: or so to play another game?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it's different from that part because this
Speaker 6: is the longest break we've had all season in between games.
Speaker 6: It's it's been weird, but it's been fun. We've been
Speaker 6: able to do some things as a team. We had
Speaker 6: a slow pitch game the other day and we were hanging
Speaker 6: out of the lake yesterday. It's pretty nice here, so
Speaker 6: we're taking advantage of the sun and you know, this
Speaker 6: morning we're back to it Monday through Friday to you know,
Speaker 6: get our bodies back and going for a big game
Speaker 6: on Friday.
Speaker 3: Just the first time we have had a chance to
Speaker 3: talk to you, So we'll talk a bit about your
Speaker 3: past if you don't mind. But what was it like
Speaker 3: entering the Western Hockey League at age fifteen? And did
Speaker 3: you hear about that on the ice from some of
Speaker 3: the boys.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it was really cool.
Speaker 6: Obviously being able to get that exceptional status.
Speaker 7: I'm super honored.
Speaker 6: And you know, it's been a long, you know, twelve
Speaker 6: thirteen year journey of just playing hockey. And my dad
Speaker 6: played hockey and so I grew up a little bit
Speaker 6: in Switzerland and Germany, so just learning from him, and
Speaker 6: obviously he played with some great teams.
Speaker 7: I played at the EDGE for two and a half.
Speaker 6: Years and they were unbelievable, so much fun there, and
Speaker 6: you know, then moved on to Everett and got super
Speaker 6: lucky to come to Everett because there's such a good
Speaker 6: organization and such a good team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Edge in Calgary, your dad, Mickey DuPont, played
Speaker 3: in the National Hockey League with the Calgary Flames, Penguins
Speaker 3: and Blues. If I'm not mistaken. So you mentioned this.
Speaker 3: You spent much of your childhood in Europe, in Germany
Speaker 3: and Switzerland. In what ways did that help you out
Speaker 3: as a hockey player.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think just being able to have that experience,
Speaker 6: and it's pretty cool living over there, especially as a
Speaker 6: young kid, you.
Speaker 7: Know, going through that whole experience, and.
Speaker 6: Even away from the rink as well, just getting out
Speaker 6: of your comfort zone and having to go to a
Speaker 6: school where you know no one and you know, building
Speaker 6: those relationships. I still have buddies that I keep in
Speaker 6: contact with all the way from Germany and Switzerland. So
Speaker 6: it was pretty cool, and you know, I'm super grateful
Speaker 6: to you know, have gone through that.
Speaker 4: London fifteen year old, sixteen year old defenseman just don't
Speaker 4: do the Western Hockey League like you have your skating,
Speaker 4: your hockey sense, your creativity. What age was it when
Speaker 4: you thought, you know, I'm pretty good at this game.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 7: I think right around thirteen and fourteen.
Speaker 6: I think that's when my game took a step and
Speaker 6: I really realized like, hey, like if I really, you know,
Speaker 6: put my head down and work at this, I can
Speaker 6: I can really improve as a player. And I think,
Speaker 6: you know, just getting better every day as a player
Speaker 6: is the biggest.
Speaker 7: Thing for me.
Speaker 4: You a lot of people think you might be the
Speaker 4: first overall pick in the NHL draft next year. I'm
Speaker 4: sure you've heard it. You heard the talk, You've seen
Speaker 4: the people talk, And what do you think when you
Speaker 4: see stuff like that?
Speaker 6: It's cool, I mean, obviously it's every young kids dream
Speaker 6: to just even be drafted into the NHL. And you know,
Speaker 6: that's the goal I've been working towards for the past
Speaker 6: ten years. But it's also so far away and you can't.
Speaker 6: You just have to take it with a grain of salt.
Speaker 6: And you know, like I said before, you just gotta
Speaker 6: put your head down and keep working every day so
Speaker 6: that one day, you know, getting drafted to the NHL
Speaker 6: could could be a possibility.
Speaker 4: Did I see a clip of you saying you were
Speaker 4: a Canucks fan growing up?
Speaker 1: Is that correct?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was a Canucks fan, me and my brother.
Speaker 1: How did that come about?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 8: I don't know, Like my brother started it.
Speaker 6: I I never really had a team in the NHL.
Speaker 6: I kind of just love watching hockey and bounced around
Speaker 6: a few teams. But my brother, he loved the Sedines,
Speaker 6: and you know, he loved Vancouver, so I just you
Speaker 6: know how it is as a younger brother, you just
Speaker 6: do whatever your older brother does. Now as i've you know,
Speaker 6: watched him more, and my favorite player, Zee william got
Speaker 6: traded there this year, so me and my brother are
Speaker 6: pretty pumped about that.
Speaker 4: Nice big part of the Canucks future. Yeah, Prince Albert
Speaker 4: is coming to town. Western Hockey League final. They got
Speaker 4: a name, braid, a guy named Braydon Coots who you've
Speaker 4: seen in Seattle. He's fourth in Western Hockey League's scoring
Speaker 4: in the playoffs. What makes Coots such a good player, Landed, Uh.
Speaker 6: He's just so dynamic with him without the puck, Like,
Speaker 6: you know, he's such a good player, and he plays
Speaker 6: a two hundred foot game. Like some of these guys
Speaker 6: at a young age you see them play and it's like, yeah,
Speaker 6: they can put the puck in the.
Speaker 7: Net, but that's all they care about. But that's not
Speaker 7: the case with him.
Speaker 6: He's, uh, you know, he's so good defensively and that's
Speaker 6: what makes him so hard to play against.
Speaker 3: What is it, getting back to what you were talking
Speaker 3: about earlier, Landon, what is it you like about Zee
Speaker 3: Williams game?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 6: Like he's just so crafty and smart. He's not the
Speaker 6: biggest guy, and neither am I. But the way he
Speaker 6: makes plays happening out of nothing, and the way he
Speaker 6: uses his feet and hands to you know, open up
Speaker 6: plays for his teammates was the biggest thing that attracted me.
Speaker 3: He's left, You're already sounds good for the future of
Speaker 3: the caduction. And what was your dad like. Your dad
Speaker 3: played in the NHL, played a lot of professional hockey.
Speaker 3: What was your dad like as a hockey parent?
Speaker 6: He was awesome. Obviously, he's been through it all. He
Speaker 6: played pro for almost twenty years, and he knows. He's
Speaker 6: good with me and my brother, Like he wants to
Speaker 6: push us and you know, he wants to teach us
Speaker 6: and all that stuff, which is great, but he gets
Speaker 6: it like he doesn't want to overwork us who he
Speaker 6: wants to make sure we're still having fun and because
Speaker 6: that's what hockey's all about.
Speaker 7: And I think you see some hockey parents.
Speaker 6: That are, you know, almost trying to play for their
Speaker 6: kid and they want to be in their kids shoes.
Speaker 7: But that's not the case with my dad.
Speaker 6: He's he's been so awesome to me and my brother
Speaker 6: so it's been, you know, awesome to have him.
Speaker 3: Are you better at this age than he was?
Speaker 8: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I I'm sure if I if I asked him, he
Speaker 6: would not agree.
Speaker 3: Hey, Landin, you've done so much in such a short
Speaker 3: period of time, but you're still just I can't believe
Speaker 3: looking at there's still just sixteen years old. In what
Speaker 3: areas do you feel you need to improve on the ice?
Speaker 6: I think just improving all my defensive game as well,
Speaker 6: and just little things like you're shot and you know
Speaker 6: you're skating can always get better, So I think just
Speaker 6: working on the little details to help, you know, even
Speaker 6: out my game.
Speaker 4: Hey, I wanted to ask you about landon NC double A.
Speaker 4: All the top stars in the Western Hockey League going
Speaker 4: n C double A. I heard there's a ton of
Speaker 4: schools after you. When do you think about that?
Speaker 6: Possibility hasn't really crossed my mind at all during this season.
Speaker 6: You know, obviously we've had such a good run here
Speaker 6: and hopefully it keeps going. So I'm really just focused
Speaker 6: on that and you know, whenever it comes, it'll it'll
Speaker 6: it'll come, But I'm not focus on that right now.
Speaker 3: This has been really impressive line and thanks so much
Speaker 3: for this. All the best in the WHL final and
Speaker 3: whatever takes place going forward. We can't thank you enough.
Speaker 3: Thanks guys, we recorded that before the show. Can you
Speaker 3: believe that kids sixteen years old comes across so well?
Speaker 3: And I don't know what it is, but over the
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks we've interviewed two defensemen that are
Speaker 3: going to go high in this year's draft in Keaton
Speaker 3: ver Hoff and Carson Carls and the other defensemen there,
Speaker 3: all three of them mature beyond their years in terms
Speaker 3: of giving an interview and dealing with the media. And
Speaker 3: as you know, for me, number one criteria for anybody
Speaker 3: entering the National Hockey League or maybe a possible future
Speaker 3: Vancor you gotta be good. You got to deal with
Speaker 3: the media. Well that's number one. Forget about what you're
Speaker 3: doing on the ice. But that's really impressive. Kids today,
Speaker 3: and I know I go on about, Oh I wish
Speaker 3: it was the old days, but they're much better interviews
Speaker 3: than the US to be in a lot of that
Speaker 3: has to do with social media and dealing with being
Speaker 3: on camera a lot more than they did in the past.
Speaker 4: Well, they get taught, they got agents now at fourteen,
Speaker 4: Donnie who helped them guide them, and that kid's a superstar.
Speaker 4: You don't do at fifteen and sixteen what he's doing
Speaker 4: in the dub you just don't do that.
Speaker 3: Well, he's he's exceptional status.
Speaker 4: Most exceptional status guys are forwards. This guy is unbelievable.
Speaker 4: But he just said he's going to be the first
Speaker 4: overall pick next year and whoever gets him is going
Speaker 4: to have a franchise defenseman.
Speaker 3: Okay, so that's you given a hint as to what
Speaker 3: a Wildling Dog poll question is going to be focused
Speaker 3: on the WHL final Everett versus Prince Albert. It starts Friday,
Speaker 3: and Everett it's a two three to two format. Everett
Speaker 3: I mentioned this at the start of that interview. Twelve
Speaker 3: and one through three rounds of the Western Highs League Playoffs,
Speaker 3: led by, among other people, land In DuPont, Prince Albert
Speaker 3: disposed of medicine hat in six games. Last night they
Speaker 3: beat them seven to six. They beat the Tigers seven six.
Speaker 3: They've only lost three times through fifteen playoff games, bringing
Speaker 3: Coots leading the way yesterday conduct draft pick one goal
Speaker 3: and to assist Everett versus Prince Albert Western Hockey League Final,
Speaker 3: A break, and then we'll introduce the wadling dog pole question.
Speaker 3: Donnie and Dolly the team one Jack. Thanks to Land
Speaker 3: and DuPont for joining us. What's wrong right in the
Speaker 3: second segment wilding dog poll question experienced one of Victoria's
Speaker 3: iconic destinations, sleep, sip, and stock up all in one
Speaker 3: legendary spot the waddling dog in Victoria. Come sit and
Speaker 3: stay at the dog today, Rick.
Speaker 4: Ryan, get her up the waddling dog pop pole question.
Speaker 1: Then it is.
Speaker 3: Has to do with Land and Dupe. I'm waiting for.
Speaker 1: The pole, Ryan, get it up? Ad lib?
Speaker 3: Come on?
Speaker 4: I ad lib when I I don't. I can't see
Speaker 4: the pole. Our wattling dog poll question, Land and DuPont.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 4: Joined, it should be joined? Should it not be?
Speaker 3: Anyways, it's a tough one because we came up before.
Speaker 4: The joined ed it should be d uh.
Speaker 3: This year some people are watching it.
Speaker 4: When would you like to see the Canucks when the
Speaker 4: draft lottery?
Speaker 1: Look at this?
Speaker 4: Sixty six percent say next year, thirty four percent This year.
Speaker 4: Next year's draft, Land and DuPont is going to be
Speaker 4: a superstar. This year doesn't have a superstar. Dog this
Speaker 4: year doesn't have a Celebrini, it doesn't have a Burrow,
Speaker 4: it doesn't have a superstar like Celebrini. Next year it does,
Speaker 4: like Land and DuPont, Land and DuPont, it doesn't. And
Speaker 4: next year's draft also is going to be heavy, heavy
Speaker 4: center in the top ten. This year is not heavy.
Speaker 4: That's why you see Caleb Maholter so high.
Speaker 3: Boy, have you seen some of his highlights lately?
Speaker 4: Caleb Maholter, He's going to end up if it happens
Speaker 4: in Coloonna where there's only team, if they win, hockey
Speaker 4: fans in this province are going to be able to
Speaker 4: see him if you can.
Speaker 3: It's going to be so much fun. The last, the
Speaker 3: last Memorial Cup was in four in Coloonna and O
Speaker 3: four Yeah, it was because it was Colonea, you know
Speaker 3: you had and Coloona ended up winning it with with
Speaker 3: with Shaye Weber, And it was just because it was Colona.
Speaker 3: You had people coming from all.
Speaker 9: Over all over the hockey world to beautiful air, experience
Speaker 9: the weather and just experience the Melonna and man if
Speaker 9: if Caleb Maholtra is there, you know, maybe Land and DuPont, Brayden, Coots,
Speaker 9: either way, whether it's Prince Albert or or ever.
Speaker 3: My gosh, that's going to be so much fun. Okay,
Speaker 3: Uh meanwhile, where were we going?
Speaker 8: Ryan?
Speaker 3: We wanted to mention, well, this this least press conference
Speaker 3: is blown up.
Speaker 1: Why don't we stick local though and go with the tweety.
Speaker 3: Yes, farhand Logy. A tweet from farhand Logy just would
Speaker 3: you go? As the Cannucks continue their president and GM
Speaker 3: search going into tomorrow's draft to lottery, here's a tweet
Speaker 3: from Farhani Walls. You could do the.
Speaker 1: Honors, Rick, if I were hiring the PO Joe.
Speaker 3: President of hockey Operations.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Why don't you help him out that fast?
Speaker 1: I wanted to see what the hell he was.
Speaker 3: Going to come because I'm a nice guy. First of all.
Speaker 1: I knew that. Why can't you just say president a
Speaker 1: president character count man?
Speaker 3: Anyway? You know what I'm gonna go with Rick here?
Speaker 1: Yes, no, no, don't do it because you've got this massive.
Speaker 4: Abbreviations, a fancy dancy stuff. You don't need to write
Speaker 4: p O H Joe.
Speaker 3: Look, I'm cool, I know what it is. You probably don't.
Speaker 3: Far ahead, come on.
Speaker 4: Anyways, Lawrence Gilman would be at the top of my list,
Speaker 4: given his experience and understanding of the market. Now that's said,
Speaker 4: my expectation is the Canucks will only be hiring a
Speaker 4: GM at this point, and I don't believe Shane don
Speaker 4: is meaningful uh in contention for that role. So what
Speaker 4: we've been told since day one, and we are accurate,
Speaker 4: is Shane Doan talk to the Cannucks more about a
Speaker 4: po h O role.
Speaker 3: You're doing it?
Speaker 4: Just stop done upper high role, upper high anyways?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 4: And I have not heard Doan's name for the GM job,
Speaker 4: but something higher. Maybe they hired the president at a
Speaker 4: later date, done right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: Because why would he say if we see the tweet again,
Speaker 3: don't mind Derek, sorry about that. There you go with
Speaker 3: the p O h O p o h O in there.
Speaker 3: But he's talking about only a GM at this point.
Speaker 3: But he does mention the presidency and does mention Lawrence
Speaker 3: Gilman versus versus Shane Doan.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And if Jim Rutherford's going to stick around as
Speaker 4: a consultant, why would.
Speaker 1: You why would you hire a president?
Speaker 4: Maybe this is telling us that Jim is going to
Speaker 4: stick around as a consultant next year because economics are
Speaker 4: going to play a role. Does Francesco want to pay
Speaker 4: for a new president? Does he want to pay for
Speaker 4: a new GM when already on the books for next year? Don,
Speaker 4: Alvin Foot, Rutherford, Ryan Johnson, they're all in the books
Speaker 4: for money next year. Economics will play a role. Does
Speaker 4: he want six guys on the books.
Speaker 3: And that aren't working for the zation anymore?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Exactly, So economics will play a role.
Speaker 1: It always does.
Speaker 3: But what if you've got somebody you are absolutely in
Speaker 3: love with as as the president and you don't want
Speaker 3: to lose them? Do you not have to move on
Speaker 3: and just bite the bullet like?
Speaker 1: Or what if this is semantics like like like for instance,
Speaker 1: Sundeen his title Senior Executive Advisor Hockey Operations. What if
Speaker 1: what if Shane Doan We talked about this a little
Speaker 1: bit on Friday President. What if he's the vice president? Right?
Speaker 1: Or if and we get clarity that this is Rutherford's
Speaker 1: final year, he's gonna you know, Don is now here.
Speaker 1: He's going to eventually transition this off the Don, but
Speaker 1: for now he's the vice president now replacing the president.
Speaker 1: He's is that semantics? Is that still right?
Speaker 3: So you're not hiring a president but not technically you
Speaker 3: are hiring Shane don't but you're hiring.
Speaker 1: Something right, not technically president, but it could be wordplay
Speaker 1: and you know it's going to be a situation. What's
Speaker 1: what's Rutherford's future?
Speaker 4: Well, he said it himself, but he's got one you're
Speaker 4: left on his pretty good decent money, right, what kind.
Speaker 3: Of a job is he done? Though? What does it matter?
Speaker 3: He's got one your left then what does it matter?
Speaker 8: Then?
Speaker 3: Then why isn't Elvin still here?
Speaker 4: So twenty twenty four, none of you guys were complaining
Speaker 4: about right, stop with you guys.
Speaker 3: Were we were? Second? Twenty twenty four is when Rutherford
Speaker 3: and Company came up with the worst contract in Canuck's history.
Speaker 1: For Elliots Patterson.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're talking about, yes, and we criticized him a
Speaker 3: lot of people in this market market it did, so yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, there was a there was a little,
Speaker 3: if you want to call it, a playoff drive one
Speaker 3: playoff series victory and a horrible contract. Not long before that,
Speaker 3: people were criticizing that this group that accurate. There you go,
Speaker 3: all right, okay, all right, I am just out of
Speaker 3: it today. Okay, I'll tell you what have we got time?
Speaker 1: For this.
Speaker 3: We talked about the Toronto media being soft versus the
Speaker 3: Vancouver media with one exception, and that's Steve Simmons. Is
Speaker 3: he ready for the Globe? I can't Toronto. He's been
Speaker 3: at Yeah. Steve Simmons has been around for a long time,
Speaker 3: and boy, he likes putting people's feet to the fire,
Speaker 3: and he did that today in Toronto. I'm sure you
Speaker 3: know this, folks. The Leafs are holding as we speak.
Speaker 3: I believe you believe it's still going on there. It's not.
Speaker 3: They're introducing John Chaka and Matt Sundean reintroduced in the
Speaker 3: case of manzindein to the Toronto media. Keith Pelly is
Speaker 3: there as well, you know, president or grand poop of
Speaker 3: in Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, and Steve Simmons has
Speaker 3: been critical of even just the possibility of hiring John
Speaker 3: Jacob for a significant amount of time. Now John Jacob
Speaker 3: gets the job. Thirty six years old, left the Arizona
Speaker 3: Coyotes with a poor record and left that organization in disgrace.
Speaker 3: So this array, disarray, disarray. This is Steve Simmons grilling
Speaker 3: asking Keith Pelly a very very difficult question during today's
Speaker 3: introductory press conference in Toronto.
Speaker 10: Steve Simmons, Toronto's son for Keith, you talk about the
Speaker 10: due diligence that you did on John prior to hiring
Speaker 10: him and now hiring him. In the past say, three
Speaker 10: to four days, I have been in contact with about
Speaker 10: twenty people who in the National Hockey League, many of
Speaker 10: whom are prominent names that we would all know. And
Speaker 10: of the twenty people I spoke to, one was supportive
Speaker 10: of John's hiring and the other nineteen thought it was
Speaker 10: a sham. To be perfectly honest, words were used like
Speaker 10: con artist, liar, salesman. How did you come to a
Speaker 10: different conclusion that I was able to come to in
Speaker 10: a very short time.
Speaker 8: I must have talked to different people.
Speaker 10: That's it, because in the hockey world today is astounded
Speaker 10: by this announcement, okay, and your response.
Speaker 3: To that as We've conducted due diligence, and it was
Speaker 3: deep due diligence. It was a thorough process, and I'm
Speaker 3: quite happy with where we've landed. Wow. And I will
Speaker 3: say this that the Cheika hiring comes as a complete surprise,
Speaker 3: and we can sit and I can criticize Ruthaford Naquallini,
Speaker 3: and same with you and everybody in this market. Connections
Speaker 3: have done a better, way better job than the Leaves.
Speaker 3: I think so too, of going about this process of
Speaker 3: hiring their their next hockey bosses like, wait, look at
Speaker 3: just the names involved, and it would have been the
Speaker 3: easy choice. And look, I'm all for Ryan Johnson being
Speaker 3: the next general manager, but I think, like a lot
Speaker 3: of people, I'm glad they're doing their due diligence for
Speaker 3: no other reason. Even if you're intent on hiring Ryan
Speaker 3: Johnson and it doesn't look like they are. You learn
Speaker 3: a lot about your organization by talking to other people,
Speaker 3: maybe things you don't know where you need to improve. Well,
Speaker 3: I think they've done a way better job than the Leaves.
Speaker 3: Just with the names involved.
Speaker 4: You get different visions and plans and ideas, and it's
Speaker 4: a good process to go through. There's no question about
Speaker 4: it done. There's a lot of people that have told
Speaker 4: them what they need to hear in this interviewing process.
Speaker 1: That's disrespectful from Steve sit Yeah, you can't call me
Speaker 1: that dude's family is sitting there. Introduction press Scott, he
Speaker 1: went overboard there for me. You called the guy a liar.
Speaker 1: You can't call them artists.
Speaker 3: I mean other people call them that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, you're the one relating that it's so bad.
Speaker 3: Ryan, Why did you get all excited when you heard it?
Speaker 1: Because for us in a sensational world, we love the clip.
Speaker 3: But being yourself, you don't think that's disrespectful somewhat, But
Speaker 3: it's very interesting and a lot of like Steve Simmons
Speaker 3: will tell you, a lot of people will tell you that,
Speaker 3: you know, part of our job is to get attention.
Speaker 3: He got himself some attention.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's the key of the guy. There's the key. Though.
Speaker 1: He wanted his attention more than anything else, so he
Speaker 1: got his.
Speaker 3: Pro rtional Hockey league rules. Sure take it. Sure with
Speaker 3: with the Coyotes. And if you don't think they expected
Speaker 3: something like this from someone like Steve Simmons, I think
Speaker 3: the troal media is soft. But that you know, not
Speaker 3: Steve Simmons.
Speaker 1: I know his family's sitting there and you're calling the
Speaker 1: guy a liar and a con artist in front of
Speaker 1: his family.
Speaker 5: He's not.
Speaker 3: He's saying that other people have called him that.
Speaker 1: Sure, but he's usually he could on least say some
Speaker 1: of the feedback I've gotten hasn't been positive, right, you
Speaker 1: can say those things.
Speaker 3: Maybe the word the words used could be could could
Speaker 3: be different. Okay, but again, like you, you got all
Speaker 3: excited when you heard that clip, and we've got to
Speaker 3: run this and I agree with you, you know we should.
Speaker 1: So it's going to be blasted everywhere because everybody loves that.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest, are we running that clip
Speaker 1: or were running you're gonna.
Speaker 3: Do? You agree with me that that they've done a
Speaker 3: h The Canucks have done a better job than the
Speaker 3: Leafs of conducting this process. And look, let's see where
Speaker 3: time will tell how these organizations do going forward. But
Speaker 3: just initial you know, first blush, like the Conducts seems
Speaker 3: to be going about it in a way more professional way.
Speaker 4: And they got more people, and I mean there's sometimes
Speaker 4: the Canucks have five people in a zoom call, Donna,
Speaker 4: there's a.
Speaker 1: Lot of people in Toronto point.
Speaker 3: They got the hot dog stop concession.
Speaker 4: Stop calling him the hot dog guy.
Speaker 1: Listen.
Speaker 4: They got five people in on the zoom calls, Johnny,
Speaker 4: you know five people that are in on the zoom
Speaker 4: Rutherford that are doing the interviewing, uh, the al family
Speaker 4: And as you call him the.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, now you're calling him that.
Speaker 4: No, I'm not calling him that.
Speaker 1: I'm not calling There's a lot of people in Toronto
Speaker 1: that look at the leafs and go, this is the
Speaker 1: best you could do as the maple leafs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with that. Six years he's been out
Speaker 4: of the base.
Speaker 3: People would be turned off by that job just because again,
Speaker 3: I don't think the Trono media is all that hard,
Speaker 3: but it's they're larger numbers. Would you be turned off
Speaker 3: by that? I don't think. I mean, you gotta take
Speaker 3: the job.
Speaker 4: You know, where's the young guy, the young GM, that's
Speaker 4: the up.
Speaker 3: And comer jac thirty six?
Speaker 4: Why but he hasn't been He hasn't been in the
Speaker 4: game in six years. No to Rick's po, I know
Speaker 4: what you're saying, but that's the Evan Golds and what man?
Speaker 3: You you just love this guy? For people to know,
Speaker 3: Rick says that Evan Gold of the Boston Bruins AGM
Speaker 3: is a very strong can strong?
Speaker 1: Can you just love it?
Speaker 4: I haven't had a guy say a bad word about.
Speaker 1: Him, Donnie.
Speaker 3: I wonder if Steve Simmons that they would talk and
Speaker 3: for people just tuning in, Pierre dorian Is has been
Speaker 3: part of an in person interview with the Vankor count
Speaker 3: from GM and the Ottawa Senators. Okay, uh, let me
Speaker 3: do some business here. May twelfth, Able Auctions will sell

Speaker 3: point we're waiting for our computer issues to clear up.
Speaker 3: No big Rye. So we'll see if that happens or
Speaker 3: if we can get big Rye going again before before
Speaker 3: this segment ends. We haven't had a we haven't had
Speaker 3: a malfunction for a while at the junction. I think
Speaker 3: unless it happens on Friday when I'm when I'm not around,
Speaker 3: well it's probably better. Okay, So we'll wait on a
Speaker 3: Big Rye. All sorts of reaction coming in regarding the
Speaker 3: Leaf's press conference and what the what the Canucks are
Speaker 3: up to or not up to. Meanwhile, we haven't talked
Speaker 3: yet about what happened last night. In the National hockey
Speaker 3: they talk about contrasting games. Oh, the Montreal Canadians win
Speaker 3: a game seven on the road to to one with
Speaker 3: just nine shots on goals, zero shots in the second period,
Speaker 3: setting all sorts of records for you know, shots on
Speaker 3: goal futility, and yet winning the hockey game four shots
Speaker 3: after two periods, Donnie, they were out shot twenty nine nineteen.
Speaker 4: I never thought they'd out goaltend the Tampa Bee, but
Speaker 4: they did. Over the course of the seven games, every
Speaker 4: game in the series seemed like one goal. Yeah, I know,
Speaker 4: one goal.
Speaker 3: Every game in.
Speaker 4: The series felt like it was a game seven. I
Speaker 4: do feel for the Lightning. They had no victor. Hedman,
Speaker 4: you know that DoD four straight year, Tampa Bee's out
Speaker 4: in round one hundred points, hundred points, hundred points and
Speaker 4: they're out in round one every year.
Speaker 3: The stat well, it's it's I think, certainly excusable. Two
Speaker 3: of those losses one came to the leaves, yes, but
Speaker 3: two of those losses were at the hands of the
Speaker 3: Florida who went on to win the Stanley Cup. But nobody,
Speaker 3: I don't think many people expected, not the way it
Speaker 3: went anyway, seven games, all one goal. And then John
Speaker 3: Cooper when I when I don't know if you saw
Speaker 3: his press conference afterwards, but he alluded to what happened
Speaker 3: in the gold medal final in Italy and it was
Speaker 3: so similar to yesterday in that and I think the
Speaker 3: quote that he came up with after Canada lost the
Speaker 3: gold medal game was we won the game, we lost
Speaker 3: the score, and it was just it was so similar yesterday.
Speaker 3: They all played the leaves out shot them, certainly by
Speaker 3: a the Habs, I mean shot them why by a
Speaker 3: wide margin, but two to one final. Montreal was moving
Speaker 3: on and I think a lot of people were looking
Speaker 3: at the NHL playoff but bracket and I'm certainly like this,
Speaker 3: and all due respect to Tampa Bay, yep, but hoping
Speaker 3: for a Buffalo Montreal second round series because those are
Speaker 3: arguably the two best buildings in the National Hockey League.
Speaker 3: The atmospheres come right through the television. Gonna be great
Speaker 3: Montreal because it's Montreal, you know, arguably the center of
Speaker 3: the hockey universe. I know Toronto likes to think it is,
Speaker 3: but the Halves are having success right now. And Buffalo
Speaker 3: has great hockey fans.
Speaker 4: So a lot of them are from South Market, southern Ontario.
Speaker 3: And then there's that fourteen year wait as well. I'm
Speaker 3: really looking forward to that series.
Speaker 4: The one stat last night, Donnie and I had to
Speaker 4: double triple check this to see if it was true.
Speaker 4: Nikita Kutirov no points in seven game sevens, Like I
Speaker 4: have trouble believing that This is a guy that gets
Speaker 4: one hundred and twenties in a bad mood too, one
Speaker 4: hundred and twenty thirty points every year. Nikita Kurov, Nikita
Speaker 4: Kucharrov has played seven game sevens and has no points.
Speaker 4: That is shocking, shocking to me.
Speaker 3: And in contrast to that two to one game with
Speaker 3: so few Montreal shots, Colorado and the Wild nine six
Speaker 3: nineteen eighties, Like, so, a, how's your computer?
Speaker 1: I am back, but I have no time what happens?
Speaker 1: So why when do you mini big big rye at
Speaker 1: like eleven fifteen?
Speaker 3: Maybe so you know why? Because you were disrespectful to
Speaker 3: Steve Simmons. I guess, So guess that's what happens? Okay,
Speaker 3: dtmz And is it just me coming up in the
Speaker 3: eleven o'clock hour? And Bob Staffer Evanton legend, great guy

Speaker 3: Opening around Bob joins us. Now, Bob, longtime we'll talk
Speaker 3: to are you sir?
Speaker 8: How are you doing? Don Are you doing?
Speaker 1: Direc awesome?
Speaker 3: We're doing just fine?
Speaker 1: Hey?
Speaker 3: Do you agree with Connor McDavid saying the Oilers were
Speaker 3: an average team with high expectations.
Speaker 8: Well they had high expectations, and they never had a
Speaker 8: sustained sequence where they were really dominant any point this year.
Speaker 8: The two years before, you know, they had a sixteen
Speaker 8: game winning streak. They won twenty four to twenty seven
Speaker 8: games at one point. And then last year it actually
Speaker 8: started in Vancouver November the seventh, you can look it up.
Speaker 8: The others went in and won like seven to two
Speaker 8: against the Canucks and for the next three months, sevens
Speaker 8: and had the best record in the NHL. This year,
Speaker 8: they had won five game winning streak all years. Towards
Speaker 8: the end of the year at one point they hadn't
Speaker 8: had a three game winning streak, So they never had
Speaker 8: any sort of sustained run of success. They were consistently
Speaker 8: inconsistent and their penalty killing absolutely undermined them. In the
Speaker 8: series against Anaheim, and I want to give Anaheim some credit.
Speaker 8: The Orders. You went in a six or seven game
Speaker 8: series or losing a six and seven game series, and
Speaker 8: there's moments in a series, and even when the Orders
Speaker 8: beat the Canucks and seven, that series could have gone
Speaker 8: either way. You win a series in four or five,
Speaker 8: you beat a team like Edmonton beat Vegas last year,
Speaker 8: Edmonton beat Dallas in the final. Florida was the better
Speaker 8: team and in this series, Anaheim was the better team.
Speaker 8: Emonton's penalty killing gave Anaheim their offensive player's confidence. And
Speaker 8: and they were young, and sometimes young teams are emotional
Speaker 8: and going massive swings. We saw that with Anaheim in
Speaker 8: the regular season. So Veronton got beat by a better team.
Speaker 8: And yes, because they were so consistently inconsistent, they were
Speaker 8: just an average team this year.
Speaker 3: So how do you explain that, Bob, you mentioned the
Speaker 3: p K. It obviously goes beyond that, especially when you're
Speaker 3: talking about a lone that includes such tremendous players.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and they're in lie like it's it's a first
Speaker 8: of all, it is hard to win. Yeah, Okay, and
Speaker 8: we look no further like I think John Cooper top
Speaker 8: three coach. Okay, Tampa Bay has a want of opening ROUNDE.
Speaker 8: They haven't won a playoff series in four years. They
Speaker 8: got John Cooper as a head coach, they got a
Speaker 8: top five goalie in the world, and Andrey Vassilevski. They
Speaker 8: got point and Koutrov. They're two to ten at home
Speaker 8: in the playoffs in the last four years. Now they
Speaker 8: play a tough division, but it's hard to win. And
Speaker 8: in Everton's case, and I'll get to the PK specifically
Speaker 8: because there's one player that greatly influenced it. But all
Speaker 8: of Edmonton's four centers were compromised in the series. McDavid
Speaker 8: we found out had either a fractured ankle or a
Speaker 8: busted foot. I mean, we'd see him on the plane.
Speaker 8: I knew what kind of pain he was in Dickinson,
Speaker 8: he had the pain threshold of a cadaver. Just to
Speaker 8: play like you know, you block a shot in the
Speaker 8: back of the leg, usually that's an airline fracture. Dry
Speaker 8: Suttle admitted in his in a very frankly a brilliant
Speaker 8: postseason media session. I mean, it just showed the leadership
Speaker 8: that he's got. But he said, hey, we acknowledge we
Speaker 8: as leaders have to be better. I lacked some pop
Speaker 8: in my game, no excuse, we didn't get it done.
Speaker 8: So that's three of the centers and the fourth guy
Speaker 8: was henryk And the order's penalty killing during the regular
Speaker 8: season was at eighty percent with Henrik. And when you're
Speaker 8: running the fifth best power play all the time in
Speaker 8: NHL history at thirty point five percent, and you got
Speaker 8: an eighty percent penalty killing, you're living large on special teams.
Speaker 8: It was sixty nine percent without Henry in the regular season.
Speaker 8: He got hurt just before the Olympics and the Orders
Speaker 8: had a swoon at that time, and as soon as
Speaker 8: he went off, I looked at cam Moon and I
Speaker 8: was like, oh boy, that's the if. They could have
Speaker 8: some problems here, and Anaheim's powerplay won them, in my opinion,
Speaker 8: Game two in admaton and Game four and home in
Speaker 8: spite of the disputed goald call in Game four and overtime,
Speaker 8: but their power play got him back in the game,
Speaker 8: and then then they spawned greater offensive confidence off of it,
Speaker 8: so frustrating great star players. They targeted McDavid, they targeted
Speaker 8: dry Settle, Bouchard got hammered in the first game. Are
Speaker 8: real hard hit. I thought it had affected him for
Speaker 8: about a game and a half. Had some tough moments
Speaker 8: the Oiders and Anaheim was very well coached. Anaheim used
Speaker 8: more players and the Oiders looked like a team that
Speaker 8: had been in the Stanley Cup Final the last two years.
Speaker 8: And you know, the Oiders have played three, two, four, four,
Speaker 8: thirteen playoffs series in the last four years before this year.
Speaker 8: You know, that's never happened in Canuck's history. That's never
Speaker 8: happened in Flames history, that's never happened in the Jets
Speaker 8: are Autawai history. We're damn lucky to have watched it.
Speaker 8: But it also takes a toll on the players. It's
Speaker 8: not an excuse. They didn't achieve what they wanted to
Speaker 8: achieve this year. They didn't get near to the level
Speaker 8: that they did, and as a result, there's a full
Speaker 8: evaluation take a place right.
Speaker 1: Now, Bob.
Speaker 4: I don't think there's a bigger Vasilly Pod Colson fan
Speaker 4: in the world than the guy we're interviewing. What a
Speaker 4: great year by Pod Colson, great in the playoffs. What
Speaker 4: a coming out party for this guy this year, Bob.
Speaker 8: And what don't understand Rick and Don is, come on,
Speaker 8: what were the fight? Here's the thing. So we see
Speaker 8: him in training camp and so I'm usually the first
Speaker 8: one at the rank in the mornings, and I want
Speaker 8: to watch who's working with the goalies, and I want
Speaker 8: to see how hard the goalies are working, and I
Speaker 8: want to see who's being used in shooter girls and
Speaker 8: that sort of stuff, and dry Settles often out there early,
Speaker 8: and Vacilly was always the first guy on the ice.
Speaker 8: And I'm about a two weeks into the regular season.
Speaker 8: I remember talking to Bells and he said, stuff, we
Speaker 8: stole a player out of Vancouver. This guy is going
Speaker 8: to kill it. He's going to become the most there's
Speaker 8: three hundred thousand Ukrainians living in northern Alberta. They love Facility,
Speaker 8: you know, like it's impossible not to love the guy.
Speaker 8: You know, he stands up for his teammates, you know.
Speaker 8: I know in his first fight against a J. Gurry
Speaker 8: learned a lesson. Well he's a quick learner, because he's
Speaker 8: done pretty well since then. He leads a team in hits.
Speaker 8: He's and to Stan Bowman's credit, and you know, I
Speaker 8: see a lot of Stan. He got ahead of it
Speaker 8: on pet Coles and he predicted that he would have,
Speaker 8: you know, power forward numbers this year. The orders have
Speaker 8: already got extended at just three billion dollars year two
Speaker 8: point nine to five million times a three year term
Speaker 8: carrying forward. And and there's a lot of criticism of
Speaker 8: Stan's body of work in the last couple of years.
Speaker 8: But Pat Coleson was That trade was made August the eighteenth.
Speaker 8: You can look it up because I flew back to
Speaker 8: see my family in Vancouver for a couple of weeks
Speaker 8: and I did a wedding in Edmonton on the Saturday,
Speaker 8: and the trade was made on a Sunday. And our
Speaker 8: analytics guy, Michael Park Caddy and Stan that Pat Colson
Speaker 8: was their target. And I think the Canucks were worried
Speaker 8: about losing them on the waivers. Yes, yes, And it's
Speaker 8: been a home it's been a home run pickup. You
Speaker 8: might see next year, you guys, the owners load up
Speaker 8: McDavid and dry settle with Pat Coleson. And they would
Speaker 8: do that because they've got to get more forwards involved
Speaker 8: and it's easier to do with Connor and Leon are
Speaker 8: playing on the same line. And Vicilly's such a workhorse
Speaker 8: that he's the perfect compliment there.
Speaker 4: All right, Bob, listen, you guys stole Pod Colson or
Speaker 4: the Canucks stealing Bill Scott? What's going on there?
Speaker 8: I'm not sure where it's at with Bill Scott. I
Speaker 8: you know, I know you've got you've probably already discussed
Speaker 8: some of the names that are maybe being brought in
Speaker 8: Here's what I'd say about Bill Scott. He's been with
Speaker 8: the organization since twenty ten. He ran the farm team.
Speaker 8: His father, Gill Scott's a long time representative of coaches
Speaker 8: and general managers and specifically long stampers and kickers in
Speaker 8: the NFL and CFL guys back of the day, you know,
Speaker 8: basically at the NHL level. Bill has worked with Craig
Speaker 8: McTavish during the decade of Darkest Pete Sharelli as the
Speaker 8: owners started to get a little bit better, Ken Holland
Speaker 8: Edmonton had the second best record in the Western Conference
Speaker 8: in the five years that Ken was here, and then
Speaker 8: Stan Bowman. So he's worked with four different gms. He'd
Speaker 8: be the first to tell you he is not a scout, okay,
Speaker 8: But in terms of could he be a general manager, yeah,
Speaker 8: he could be a general manager. He understands analytics. He's
Speaker 8: not the guy that drives the analytics. He understands cap
Speaker 8: He's negotiated a lot of contracts with some of the agents.
Speaker 8: Some wins, some losses, maybe you could argue, but he's
Speaker 8: had experience and he understands being in a Canadian market
Speaker 8: and I don't actually think Vancouver and Calgary are in
Speaker 8: as bad as Bots as some other people out there
Speaker 8: seem to think so. And I'd love to tell you
Speaker 8: because I'm gonna go see a mutual acquaintance of ours
Speaker 8: right after this interview. You guys, a good friend of
Speaker 8: ours named Jerry Rick, and I'd love to discuss what
Speaker 8: I think the Canucks should do with the top, you know,
Speaker 8: one of those top three picks. But Bill knows what
Speaker 8: he is and knows what he isn't and sometimes, you know,
Speaker 8: I definitely know this. I think he did very well
Speaker 8: with Nashville in the interview process there. So I don't
Speaker 8: know where they're at with Vancouver and or where he's
Speaker 8: at or where the Canucks are at with him, but
Speaker 8: I think Vancouver would be a great job for someone.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Bob goaltending, Well, what's the situation in Edmonton?
Speaker 3: I believe they only have one goaltender at the NHL
Speaker 3: level or will have only one goaltender NHL level under contract?
Speaker 3: What does this thing go back like twenty years? Like
Speaker 3: they're looking for a goalie. I'm exaggerating him, of course,
Speaker 3: but what are they going to do next season?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I mean, what's crazier?
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 8: Crazier having Roberto La Loongo and Krey Schneider. Right, here's
Speaker 8: what I think they should do. So they got Tristan
Speaker 8: Jarry similar to what's got like Jake Wallman. This year
Speaker 8: in a tough regular season, he was pretty good in
Speaker 8: the playoffs. They got to get the most out of
Speaker 8: Jake Wallman. His seven year extension kicks in. Next year,
Speaker 8: they got Frederick. He was healthy, scratched. I don't necessarily
Speaker 8: agree that he should have been healthy scratched. I would
Speaker 8: have had him playing in all the playoff games. And
Speaker 8: then in Jerry's case, Ingram played ahead of them. Ingram's
Speaker 8: the UFA. They got to work with the guy that
Speaker 8: they traded for and Tristan. If you had told me
Speaker 8: when they made that trade and Tristan came right in
Speaker 8: and started against Toronto and started against Pittsburgh and hurt
Speaker 8: against Boston, that he wouldn't have been the owner of
Speaker 8: starting goalie in the playoffs, and you're crazy. So they
Speaker 8: got to rebuild. They got to rebuild Jerry or look
Speaker 8: at a different option. And I guess time will tell.
Speaker 3: Again.
Speaker 8: Stambohman said he's getting he's going through the process of
Speaker 8: fear and out what happened with the Orders this season,
Speaker 8: and but they traded for this guy at the trade
Speaker 8: right now, let's not be sing each other right now.
Speaker 8: It doesn't look too pretty. I watched Tristan Jerry be
Speaker 8: the last WHL and I watched the WHL closely, and
Speaker 8: the league is nowhere near as good as it once was,
Speaker 8: especially in relation to how good the NCAA is. So
Speaker 8: there's your nudge, nudge wink wink on McKenna and Verhoff
Speaker 8: in particular. They played in a way more difficult league
Speaker 8: than the kids that are being judged out of Major Junior.
Speaker 8: But I watched Tristan Jarry guide Edmonton, you know, help
Speaker 8: Emitton be the last WHL team to win him Real Cup.
Speaker 8: When he's on, he's pretty good. He can really handle
Speaker 8: the blockey. He's got a great glove. And I know
Speaker 8: Steve Elliquette, Pope, uh, you know, brought up some challenges
Speaker 8: in both Jarry and Jake yours game which I found
Speaker 8: interest in some similar challenges and movement. They got to
Speaker 8: work with this guy, so you know, in Jarry's case,
Speaker 8: he's under contract for two more years. I got to
Speaker 8: decide if they bring Ingram back. Ingram has a very
Speaker 8: close connection to the Knoblock family. They're both from Imperial Saskatchewan,
Speaker 8: and I think Everton has to look at an organization
Speaker 8: that's deep in goaltending prospects and try to grab there's
Speaker 8: a couple in the Eastern Conference and maybe try to
Speaker 8: get the mixed there on a younger goaltender that's going
Speaker 8: to be the goally o the future. But that's my assessment.
Speaker 3: Doesn't mean I'm right, Okay, Bob ten seconds or less,
Speaker 3: noblocked back next year.
Speaker 8: We'll see, right, Yeah, we'll see. I mean he knows.
Speaker 8: I mean they got to evaluate. We'll see what happens.
Speaker 3: You know, I have to commend to you. You only
Speaker 3: took about four or five shots at the Canucks. Usually
Speaker 3: it's ten or twelve. So that's not bad.
Speaker 8: I'm telling you the Canucks. She drops McKenna one. If
Speaker 8: he's there, and they got to consider him a hul
Speaker 8: trip ahoff. Those are those for me, would be the
Speaker 8: top three picks.
Speaker 1: Okay, wow wow?
Speaker 3: No Stenburgh?
Speaker 8: Okay, is Stenburg a winger? I don't think if I'm
Speaker 8: if I'm Francesca AKLINI I don't think you can pass
Speaker 8: on Gavin mcclennig he played, he put up fifty points
Speaker 8: in NCAA hockey, and I think you have to consider Airhoff. Yeah,
Speaker 8: I'm six ft four, right shot. I know you got
Speaker 8: there's a perception that the Canucks have depth on the fence.
Speaker 8: They're probably looking to look forward and you know Spencer
Speaker 8: Hymen's Branford's been pushed in that series, but Maholt has
Speaker 8: been fantastic for Branford that series so far.
Speaker 3: Bob, thank for this, appreciate it.
Speaker 1: About and beyond is always all the best.
Speaker 8: Stuck. Anytime you're stuck and can't get to anybody out of.
Speaker 3: You'll be the first person we call Bob Banks for this.

Speaker 4: All right, get her up the Watling Dog up Pop
Speaker 4: Pop Question, Land and DuPont join the show today.
Speaker 1: When would you like to.
Speaker 4: See the Canucks win the draft lottery this year or
Speaker 4: next year? Look at this next year? Sixty two percent
Speaker 4: this year thirty eight percent. This is very simple. I
Speaker 4: understand this next year there are there is going to
Speaker 4: be a superstar leg Landed DuPont. This year, it doesn't
Speaker 4: have that. It just doesn't doesn't look like it.
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't. It doesn't.
Speaker 3: Don So nobody can surprise you, or if they could.
Speaker 4: There's no Macklin Celabrini, who's obviously it would be an
Speaker 4: MVP candidate in two years. There's no celebrinian this year's draft.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry there isn't.
Speaker 3: I don't think you have to worry about the Canucks
Speaker 3: winning the draft lottery this year. Why because they're sending
Speaker 3: the Sadeens to represent them. Right, you know where I'm
Speaker 3: coming from here. This is all due respect to Daniel
Speaker 3: and Henrik Sadeen, but how did they start their national
Speaker 3: hockety careers?
Speaker 1: H drafted by the Canucks.
Speaker 3: Drafted second and third overall. You're sending that you don't
Speaker 3: want to draft second or third overall. This year's the
Speaker 3: problem you have to So what do you do? You
Speaker 3: send Daniel and Henrik Sadeen to represent you. Look, I'm
Speaker 3: a believer in karma and luck and all that sort
Speaker 3: of stuff, So I did these guys were drafted second
Speaker 3: overall and third overall. You want first overall. These are
Speaker 3: the guys representing it. I love these guys. They're fantastic,
Speaker 3: greatest Caknucks of all time. Arguably, you know, certainly up
Speaker 3: up there, I give the situation. I'm not so sure
Speaker 3: I want them presenting this franchise.
Speaker 4: Here's your problem, don In fifty six years of Canuck's history,
Speaker 4: they've never had the first overall pick.
Speaker 1: They can't send.
Speaker 3: Someone not getting it. No, I I send Finn. Why anybody?
Speaker 3: But the guys who are drafted second and third overall?
Speaker 3: They don't know.
Speaker 4: They've lost karma, Donnie. They've lost the draft lottery five times. Well,
Speaker 4: they've never moved They've they've never moved up. They've always
Speaker 4: moved down four years in a row from twenty sixteen.
Speaker 3: What's your point, though, you see what I'm saying about.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter who you send. This organization is jinxed.
Speaker 3: Or maybe you're fucking This is kind of outrageous in
Speaker 3: my opinion. Anyway, and maybe you know it goes goes
Speaker 3: the other way. It's got the lux got to turn
Speaker 3: one of these days. But again, given the choice, I
Speaker 3: think we see our poll results. I think most people
Speaker 3: would rather have them winning next year with Land and
Speaker 3: DuPont available. Oh you know, Oh, nothing against Gavin McKenna
Speaker 3: or or Stenburg if you had to pick one or
Speaker 3: the other.
Speaker 4: I don't mind the Sadeine Twins going. These two classy
Speaker 4: guys who longtime actually live here.
Speaker 1: I have no issues.
Speaker 3: Okay, we only we have time to do the Draft
Speaker 3: lottery simulator. I know you're upset because your your segment
Speaker 3: didn't work out the way it did. But let's let's
Speaker 3: do the Draft lottery simulator. We haven't done it for
Speaker 3: a long time. The Draft lottery is tomorrow. Maybe we'll
Speaker 3: do it again tomorrow because our shoul will air before
Speaker 3: the Draft Lottery, which is four o'clock Pacific. That's when
Speaker 3: it started. That's when, Yeah, that's when it starts. The
Speaker 3: broadcast starts at that time. Anyway, So okay, Rick, do
Speaker 3: you want to go first. I'll go first.
Speaker 4: I want to thank all the fans showing up the season,
Speaker 4: tooking holders to the beer Shack on Johnson Road in
Speaker 4: White Rock, the Beer Shack. Let's do this right now,
Speaker 4: and I'll tell you who and what's happening. Look at
Speaker 4: this the Vancouver Canucks with the third overall pick, followed
Speaker 4: by trust sound happy. I'm not happy If the Canucks
Speaker 4: don't get picked one tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna feel so bad for the fans.
Speaker 4: Toronto's got the second pick. Look who's got the first?
Speaker 4: Beck Dottie down the highway two hours Seattle.
Speaker 3: Oh right, okay, take athon NHL Draft Lottery simulator. It's
Speaker 3: the game show that's sweeping the nation. And I just
Speaker 3: want to say a special hello to all of our
Speaker 3: season ticket holders are a lot of them anyway, who
Speaker 3: are assembled at the Excite Grill on East Hastings in
Speaker 3: North Bernaby. And a special low to little Smitty Smithson's
Speaker 3: having some tough times right now, So hello Tom Smitty.
Speaker 3: All right, the way we go the third overall pick.
Speaker 3: Look at this third overall pick in the National Hockey
Speaker 3: leaue graft goes to the Vancouver car second overall pick,
Speaker 3: moving up five spots, the Jets to Winnipeg. And for
Speaker 3: those of you who don't speak French, that's the Winnipeg
Speaker 3: Jets number one pick overall. Okay, I don't know how
Speaker 3: this works. The Florida Panthers, oh stop, that would be
Speaker 3: locked in. They would get that pick, right.
Speaker 1: So their pick is one to ten protected.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, Florida, Winnipeg Vancouver won two to three.
Speaker 1: Right, Like does I say hello to season ticket holders?
Speaker 1: Our business partners all gathered at the Rail and River
Speaker 1: Bistro beautiful Fort Langley, British Columbia. That is there, No
Speaker 1: no Fort Langley though on a nice weekend.
Speaker 3: Master of the It's packed.
Speaker 1: Drafting in third position, familiar spot for them. The Vancouver
Speaker 1: Canucks second overall. San Jose They're moving up seven spots.
Speaker 1: San Jose are second overall. Pick number one overall are
Speaker 1: the New York Rangers overall.
Speaker 3: And I totally expect that to happen. See you for Chicago,
Speaker 3: but all three of us with the connection third third,
Speaker 3: by the way, people know this, but for the few
Speaker 3: people who don't, that's their best shot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the chances.
Speaker 1: I need the Canucks to draft first only because I
Speaker 1: can't do Wednesday's show of the Conspiracy. The NHL wants

Speaker 1: Carolina Hurricanes game number one. Hurricanes Flyers beer skates ye
Speaker 1: sold in Raleigh. Check out the video. So it's not
Speaker 1: a real skate by the way, I know Rick was
Speaker 1: wondering about that. Then skate laid and everything on the bottom.
Speaker 1: It's not a real skate. It's just like a plastic
Speaker 1: cup that you fill.
Speaker 3: With b Okay. I think people know it's not skate, but.
Speaker 1: It's like a mini skate. It's a mini skate. It's
Speaker 1: got a handle on it and everything awesome. The Hurricanes,
Speaker 1: by the way, after the game tweeted out. I think
Speaker 1: this was on Sunday or Saturday, if I have that right.
Speaker 1: Four thousand and six and eighty seven beer skates sold
Speaker 1: in the first game. Really one in every four fans
Speaker 1: purchased it.
Speaker 3: You know what this means? Kind of the Kings are
Speaker 3: copying what other teams do. We'll see this at Rogers Arena.
Speaker 1: This is the you know, the creativity. Like I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys saw that the Buffalo Sabers have
Speaker 1: like a mini stick of beer. You and we've seen
Speaker 1: the Mariners have a bat stuff, creative stuff. I wish
Speaker 1: we would see that over there Rodgers Arena.
Speaker 3: That's something new and different.
Speaker 1: You see.
Speaker 3: A guy can finish his interviews there and yeah, something
Speaker 3: like that and become the beer skate guy. That's what
Speaker 3: will happen. He will become the beer skate guy. They'll
Speaker 3: copy that. But I don't know what is with the
Speaker 3: Carolina and they finished first overall Eastern Conference, so what
Speaker 3: they have They have yet to trail in a game
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Why does that team bore me? Because
Speaker 3: they are I love rod Brenda Moore and Logan Stan Covin.
Speaker 3: But there's just something about them that for years, they
Speaker 3: just don't.
Speaker 1: I'm with you, excited, I'm with you uniforms. I think
Speaker 1: that I think they're gonna be one of the problems.
Speaker 4: They're so good defensively, they limit other teams offense. That's
Speaker 4: one of the problems. They don't have a real You
Speaker 4: don't get a time. Do they have a superstar No
Speaker 4: Logan stank cop, wonderful player, Logan stan Coleman, don't get
Speaker 4: me going Kamloops getting the Canucks took you know who
Speaker 4: six spots earlier.
Speaker 1: Don't get me going.
Speaker 3: The point is, yeah, the point, I wouldn't have got that.
Speaker 3: The point. The point is that that I think for
Speaker 3: a lot of people, they just don't. They don't. I
Speaker 3: don't know, they don't spark a lot.
Speaker 1: Of Yeah, but Rich's right. I think it's partly because
Speaker 1: they snuff out the competition.
Speaker 4: So limit opportunities and other teams don't get they're great
Speaker 4: checkers and Jalens.
Speaker 3: Kind of it's throwback to the Dead Puck era. Yeah,
