Speaker 1: be the winner of a two man loose.
Speaker 4: And Rick Dolly Wall I had a cherry tree up
Speaker 4: but little Ricky I used to go up that tree
Speaker 4: and just sit there for hours and munch on news.

Speaker 1: on Check. God Taylor, along with Rick Dolly Wall. Ryan
Speaker 1: Henderson is our producer. He's the man at the controls
Speaker 1: or director. The voice of God is Derek Wong. This
Speaker 1: is it, This is it. This is our last show
Speaker 1: before the end of our Donnie and Dolly season. Yes,
Speaker 1: we're taking a couple of months off for the summer
Speaker 1: and then we'll be back in September. September seventh. If
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken seventh, the eighth, eighth. That's me though,
Speaker 1: I'll be here on the seventh. You guys can slack
Speaker 1: off and we'll reseme with the eighth. But the eighth
Speaker 1: is a Tuesday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the kids go back to school on the fifth.
Speaker 5: It's the day after Labor Day. Labor Day, Monday is
Speaker 5: the seventh.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to complain, like, are you new to
Speaker 1: the holidays in September?
Speaker 5: Come on?
Speaker 1: Labor Day used to be the fourth.
Speaker 4: What's going with?
Speaker 1: Labor Day always moves around, It's always a Monday, yeah, right, Like.
Speaker 5: This past year was like it was like the first
Speaker 5: of September.
Speaker 1: So it's good for us. So this will be our
Speaker 1: getting back on track.
Speaker 5: You show up on the seventh, well, I'll just talk
Speaker 5: to yourself in here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I won't be the only guy talking to
Speaker 1: himself a little too inside there. So band names will
Speaker 1: go through our list of band names. Are you're a
Speaker 1: good guy? List?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 1: We have a blooper real prepared as well. Meanwhile, let's
Speaker 1: talk some sports here as opposed to talking about ourselves.
Speaker 1: Alex Livechkin is back with the Washington Capitals, a one year,
Speaker 1: four point two five million dollars cap hit Alexevechkin is
Speaker 1: forty years old. He'll be his birthdays in September, so
Speaker 1: he'll be forty one before the season starts. Seventy one
Speaker 1: goals short of one thousand for his career if you
Speaker 1: combine regular season and playoffs.
Speaker 4: Trick, phenomenal athlete, phenomenal hockey player. He's still going, He's
Speaker 4: still scoring. He doesn't miss many games during the regular season.
Speaker 4: This guy is just you just run out of words
Speaker 4: to describe him. He is a phenomenal player.
Speaker 1: Eighty two games last year. You talk about not missing
Speaker 1: any any games, thirty two goals, thirty two assists, sixty
Speaker 1: four points, and you say to yourself, well, that's not
Speaker 1: very Ovechkin like. He led the capitals and goals end
Speaker 1: points last year. And does he hustle like he used to?
Speaker 1: Does he hit people like he used to? Is he
Speaker 1: as ferocious as he used to be? No, but the
Speaker 1: production is there, especially on the power play. And this
Speaker 1: just in he sells. He sells tickets. So NHL is
Speaker 1: better for this. So Vechkin back for at least another
Speaker 1: season back with the Washington Capitals. As for the Vancouver Canucks, yesterday,
Speaker 1: free agency period opens for the entire National Hockey League
Speaker 1: Canucks with a productive day, making five signings and one trade.
Speaker 1: Speaking of the five signings, let's get back to that.
Speaker 1: You can now make it six. Luke Schen for a year,
Speaker 1: Paul Carter for a year. We want to talk more
Speaker 1: more about Paul Carter. Carter now, okay, welcome Carter, Welcome
Speaker 1: back Ka and Jamie Alexiak for a couple of yours.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody has any problem with these signings
Speaker 1: at all. And as we move on with some more
Speaker 1: free agent signings, here we got that Derek any chance
Speaker 1: there you go? A member of the all named team,
Speaker 1: Trey the Canucks All name Team all time, Trey Fix, Welanski,
Speaker 1: a Kill Thomas and this just in I mentioned six signings.
Speaker 1: Matthew Steinberg signing with the Canucks release. The announcement was
Speaker 1: made this morning. He's from Halifax Nova Scotia, a center
Speaker 1: twenty five years old from the Colorado Avalanche organization. This
Speaker 1: is a one year two way deal, much like Fixed,
Speaker 1: Wolanski and Thomas's deals one year two way deal out
Speaker 1: of Cornell University. He's only played eight NHL games, So
Speaker 1: these are as you can see by our board here
Speaker 1: depth signings.
Speaker 4: The Atbosford guys, Sabsford guys. So when there's injuries in Vancouver,
Speaker 4: some of these guys are going to get called up.
Speaker 4: The Aki Thomas guy is a guy that all these guys,
Speaker 4: Ryan Johnson and the assistant GM, mister Seeley, they know
Speaker 4: all these guys and they've been keeping Sealy. The assistant
Speaker 4: GM had a Keel Thomas in the American League.
Speaker 1: So that one makes sense. Yeah, familiar with him. So
Speaker 1: after our show yesterday we mentioned the five signings, the
Speaker 1: Jamie Alexiak signing coming over from Seattle or coming up
Speaker 1: north from Seattle two years, five million dollars aav that
Speaker 1: happened after our show yesterday, and it was in response
Speaker 1: to a trade that not a lot of people saw
Speaker 1: coming Marcus Peterson to the Rangers for a conditional first
Speaker 1: round draft pick in twenty thirty Rick four years from now.
Speaker 4: Johnny, keep getting those first round picks, keep getting picks.
Speaker 4: You're in a rebuild for the first four years. The
Speaker 4: Canucks have to pick in the top five, top ten.
Speaker 4: That's how you get out of this mess. This was
Speaker 4: a great move. It freed up the money for Alexei
Speaker 4: Alexiak he had to waive his no move, So I
Speaker 4: do want to say this. Don Ryan Johnson had been
Speaker 4: communicating with Marcus's agent the past few weeks. Basically, the
Speaker 4: agent was told, we like Marcus a lot, but if
Speaker 4: we get a deal the knocks or socks off, we're
Speaker 4: gonna come to you. That's what happened yesterday. Canucks got
Speaker 4: a little bit lucky. And I'll tell you why, DoD
Speaker 4: There were teams that Patterson would have said no to
Speaker 4: the fact they Canucks got Patterson to say yes to
Speaker 4: the Rangers, who were not much better than the Canucks
Speaker 4: last year. He didn't go from team thirty two to
Speaker 4: team ten. He went from team thirty two to a
Speaker 4: team that.
Speaker 1: Had a horrible make klaoffs.
Speaker 4: It did make the playoffs, So the Canucks got a
Speaker 4: little bit lucky the Petterson Yes, he said, he waved
Speaker 4: in the afternoon to the Rangers. Not a great situation,
Speaker 4: but he said, yes.
Speaker 1: But it is New York. It's Madison Square, and a
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of people want to play there,
Speaker 1: love playing there, no matter the situation. Always remember Gretzky
Speaker 1: when he retired. One of his pieces of advice to
Speaker 1: young lucky players, was that if you ever get a
Speaker 1: chance to play in New York, specifically, the Rangers jump
Speaker 1: on its. Petterson now a member of the Rangers. We
Speaker 1: hardly knew him. He was harder to a year and
Speaker 1: a half coming over from Pittsburgh. And they give up
Speaker 1: a first rounder there, so they get a first rounder back.
Speaker 1: And it's an unconventional move getting a first rounder so
Speaker 1: far ahead in the future. But Rick, what if and
Speaker 1: this is look this just in things tend to go
Speaker 1: wrong for the Vancouver Canucks going back to nineteen seventy.
Speaker 1: What if they are a playoff team at that point,
Speaker 1: what if they're in contention and for a cup? And
Speaker 1: I know that's praying for a lot if you're a
Speaker 1: Vancouver Canuck fan. But then you've got a first round.
Speaker 1: Maybe you have two first rounders and twenty third or
Speaker 1: we have a chance to trade that first rounder if
Speaker 1: you are a playoff bound team. So here's Ryan Johnson
Speaker 1: yesterday he made himself available to the media. We got
Speaker 1: this clip, Derek. This is Ryan Johnson on his thinking
Speaker 1: with the Marcus Petterson trade.
Speaker 7: Well, looking at the options, looking at where what that
Speaker 7: team had available as far as restaurant picks, and then
Speaker 7: also the timing to make the move. Still I see
Speaker 7: value in a future pick. That is a time where
Speaker 7: I hope we are heading in the right direction and
Speaker 7: look back on having that pick is still going to
Speaker 7: have value. It's hard to see it now, but something
Speaker 7: that again I'm not afraid to do to punt things
Speaker 7: down the road to give us opportunities at that point
Speaker 7: to and it doesn't mean you wait till twenty thirty
Speaker 7: that's something you may be able to use earlier as
Speaker 7: as value to bring something back.
Speaker 1: There you go saying, well, we just said that. Okay,
Speaker 1: First of all, maybe you use that pick and it's conditional,
Speaker 1: it's top ten protected, so it might not be till
Speaker 1: till twenty thirty one. Twenty thirty one, right, so there's
Speaker 1: a possibility of that. Or you use it as as
Speaker 1: a trade chip. It's a smart movie, you know, look,
Speaker 1: you know smart. Yeah, if that's what you If you
Speaker 1: can get a first round draft pick for Marcus Pettis,
Speaker 1: might again you gave up a first round draft pick,
Speaker 1: but that's another regime. It was Ruththerford and Alvin this This,
Speaker 1: this to me makes a whole lot of sense. It's smart,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's reasonable, it's understandable. Uh, and it makes
Speaker 1: sense given where they at where they are at right now.
Speaker 1: Same with all these deals that they've made, right, they're
Speaker 1: all short term smart.
Speaker 4: Donney a couple of things. Ultimately, this new regime will
Speaker 4: be judged on wins and losses. But up till now,
Speaker 4: they got a plan. They articulate it well. Like when
Speaker 4: you listen to Ryan Johnson, you don't listening to a
Speaker 4: bumbling fool. He's got a plan. What do you d
Speaker 4: d up last two years? What's the plan been in Vancouver?
Speaker 4: Resigned Quinn Hughes last year July first, Demko, Garland Besser
Speaker 4: all resigned for one reason. Resigned Quinn Hughes. How did
Speaker 4: that turn out? The whole plan in the last two
Speaker 4: years was to resign Quinn Hughes. These guys plan is
Speaker 4: not evolved around one player. The big key yesterday you
Speaker 4: nailed it. No long term deals. Deals were all short
Speaker 4: gives you flexibility. Long term deals come with no moves.
Speaker 4: What headache do the Canucks have right now? Don no moves.
Speaker 4: They got seven of them thanks to the finish thirty seconds,
Speaker 4: So they got seven No moves thanks to the old regime, Donnie,
Speaker 4: short term deals give you flex and even this Carter guy,
Speaker 4: let's say everyone's talking all we're going to trade him.
Speaker 1: If he turns out.
Speaker 4: To be a good culture piece, you could keep him.
Speaker 1: I want to talk some more about Paul Carter. I
Speaker 1: think Brian will do that in the open segment of
Speaker 1: the in the eleven o'clock hour. What's that signal mean?
Speaker 1: What does this mean? Moving? Are you driving a motorcycle?
Speaker 5: It's watch your time because we have Moje and Drants coming.
Speaker 1: Up back to back. Well, Drant's two questions ten minutes.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you're France is one question? And God bless
Speaker 1: him by the way. So again, Canucks acquire Matthew Steinberg
Speaker 1: or they signed Matthew Steinberg, the former Colorado AV and
Speaker 1: then the Marcus Patterson trade. Okay, and I thought Marcus
Speaker 1: Patterson was better when he first came to the Canucks
Speaker 1: versus last season. Yes, when were there are some difficulties there? Okay,
Speaker 1: a lot going on today. As I said, we want
Speaker 1: to focus on Paul Cotter. He's a character. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna We've got an open segment in the eleven o'clock hour.
Speaker 1: He's a character in what he does around it and
Speaker 1: in the dressing room. And he's got some sweet hands,
Speaker 1: is how a lot of people have described his ability
Speaker 1: with the puck, even though his career highs just sixteen goals.
Speaker 1: We'll put that on display in the eleven o'clock hour. Also,
Speaker 1: we've got to talk about before I forget, don't forget.
Speaker 1: BC Lions in Kloonna again on Saturday, oh and three
Speaker 1: to start the season after the loss in Colona last weekend.
Speaker 1: They take on the three and oh ebonton Elks on

Speaker 6: all of our sponsors, there's too many to name right now,
Speaker 6: all the participants, all the celebs of EPs. It was
Speaker 6: a great event and yeah we had we had a
Speaker 6: lot of fun and raised quite a bit of money
Speaker 6: for charity. So big, thank you everybody that was involved.
Speaker 1: Okay, so when it comes to events in the Okanagan,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to avoid it, but you know I shouldn't
Speaker 1: say that they're owing three of the Lions they lose
Speaker 1: to Calgary. But what was the whole Apple Bowl experience
Speaker 1: like as we look ahead to the Edmonton game in
Speaker 1: Colonna this weekend.
Speaker 6: Well, I'll tell you one thing. The town was a buzz.
Speaker 6: Everywhere you went. People were talking about the Lions here
Speaker 6: going to the game. It should be so much fun.
Speaker 6: The significant other was in a pilates class and she
Speaker 6: was saying, even in there and you know, people were
Speaker 6: talking about the Lions game that day. It was actually
Speaker 6: it was it was crazy. It was off the hook.
Speaker 6: I mean, just the buzz in the city. I couldn't
Speaker 6: believe how many people knew about the game, were going
Speaker 6: to the game. The game itself, I'm sure speaking of
Speaker 6: drone shots, he showed that shot in that bailey, I'm
Speaker 6: sure you saw some of the shot.
Speaker 1: Beautiful.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was magnificent. I mean, of course, there were
Speaker 6: logistical issues. There always will be anytime you run an
Speaker 6: event for the first time. Hopefully they'll clean some of
Speaker 6: those things up for the game this weekend versus Edmonton,
Speaker 6: and bottom line is though they lost the game, and
Speaker 6: that's the most important thing, and unfortunately the Lions now
Speaker 6: sit at own three.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh and three. So what stands out, as I
Speaker 1: probably asked you this last week when they were owing two,
Speaker 1: what stands out is the Lion's major major issues. A
Speaker 1: lot of penalties last weekend.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought the defense flashed some signs of life,
Speaker 6: a little bit better pass rush. I mean, the offense
Speaker 6: continues to do what they do, but I think it's
Speaker 6: just complementary football right now, and that's the one thing
Speaker 6: the Lions aren't doing. And you know, people look at
Speaker 6: the firing of special teams coordinator Corey McDermott and say,
Speaker 6: you know, they should have fired and make Benavidi's But
Speaker 6: I mean, if you look at a lot of the
Speaker 6: issues that the Lions have had, I mean, field position's
Speaker 6: been atrocious. When the other team's starting with the ball
Speaker 6: at the forty five or the fifty, your defense is
Speaker 6: kind of playing with a gun to their head because
Speaker 6: they know if they give up two or three first downs,
Speaker 6: it's basically points on the board, right And conversely, when
Speaker 6: your offense is starting at your twenty five or your thirty,
Speaker 6: which they have most of the year this year, the
Speaker 6: field position has been it's been you know, you've got
Speaker 6: to put together some sustained drives to put points on
Speaker 6: the board. So, and that's not to say it's all
Speaker 6: on special teams, you know, same thing. I mean, if
Speaker 6: the offense or peronly if the defensive unit goes out
Speaker 6: there with the opposition having the ball on the ten
Speaker 6: yard line, they got to stop them then in there
Speaker 6: and get the ball back and get decent field position. Instead,
Speaker 6: they give up three four first downs even if they
Speaker 6: force a punt. Now the lines are starting deep in
Speaker 6: their territory. So to me, it's about complimentary football.
Speaker 4: Excuse me, holy smoke, where's your mic cough button?
Speaker 1: Good lord?
Speaker 9: Low tech here?
Speaker 4: What don't eat before you come on the air anything?
Speaker 9: I'm drinking coffee.
Speaker 4: Well that's the first time I heard you say that. Anyways, listen, mode,
Speaker 4: let's go to the Canucks free agency. What are your
Speaker 4: thoughts on what they did yesterday?
Speaker 6: You know, it's interesting, Rick, I know you and I
Speaker 6: both know in talking to certain people within the organization
Speaker 6: that these are the type of pickups they needed to make.
Speaker 1: Last year BINGO, to improve the room.
Speaker 6: So to speak, to improve the leadership group. I just
Speaker 6: kind of think to myself, Yeah, okay, maybe it's a
Speaker 6: year late, but still it's a step in the right direction.
Speaker 6: You know, I loved what they did bringing in character
Speaker 6: guys like Gallagher, alexiak Shan. You know, they weren't handed
Speaker 6: big tickets. So for me, it's I like what they've done.
Speaker 6: I think they've brought in the right type of players,
Speaker 6: the right character players to guide and mentor some of
Speaker 6: the younger players on this team. So I think the
Speaker 6: moves that Ryan Johnson has made, I'm all on board
Speaker 6: with it. And you know, it's interesting because I was
Speaker 6: listening to your hit this morning with Brouff and Rough
Speaker 6: and you know, the plan last year was, well, we
Speaker 6: got to win for Quinn right, and contracts the terrible
Speaker 6: It's just it's just now you look back at it.
Speaker 6: And even when Rutherford was here, I looked at a
Speaker 6: lot of the moves that he made, and it was this.
Speaker 6: He was like always like, you know, plugging this ball.
Speaker 6: He was robbing Peter to pay Paul all the time. Right, Okay,
Speaker 6: let's let's get at a Fesse move. Now we lose forward depth.
Speaker 6: Well let's get a forward, but now we're going to
Speaker 6: lose a draft pick, right. I mean, it was just
Speaker 6: it's just, it was just it was the best way
Speaker 6: to describe it was ad libbing all the time, just
Speaker 6: trying to get a quick fix rather than looking at
Speaker 6: a long.
Speaker 9: Term solution which should work for the hockey club.
Speaker 6: And I think when you look at Ryan Johnson and
Speaker 6: the Sedines, that's what they have. They have a long
Speaker 6: term plan and they're going to stick to that plan.
Speaker 6: That being said, who knows, Maybe they're going and signed
Speaker 6: Jamie ben today. It was six years, fifty four million,
Speaker 6: but I highly doubt it.
Speaker 4: No, there's no way. Hey, Rick Talket told you that
Speaker 4: when they lost the door off in Cole Boy, he
Speaker 4: really missed that.
Speaker 1: I missed those.
Speaker 4: Guys leadership they did. You know Shan and Gallagher, you
Speaker 4: know them both really good pickups in terms of improving
Speaker 4: that dressing room, the culture, all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: I think these two were grand slam hits in terms
Speaker 4: of changing the culture.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I mean you need players that are going to express
Speaker 6: themselves and be leaders in that room and if somebody
Speaker 6: gets out of line, they will put them in their place.
Speaker 6: And I think that's what happened when you lost Coolan's
Speaker 6: a door off. He kind of had a checks and
Speaker 6: balances in place, particularly for a guy like JT. Miller, Right,
Speaker 6: So then those two players leave them. Well guess what now,
Speaker 6: no one is kind of keeping JT. Miller in check,
Speaker 6: so to speak, and as a result, you know, chaos ensued.
Speaker 6: So when you have players such as Gallagher and Shin
Speaker 6: and Alexiak veterans that will make themselves heard and basically
Speaker 6: you know, be those checks and balances and keep people
Speaker 6: in line, I think it doesn't allow things to go astray.
Speaker 6: It doesn't allow people to develop. Bad work happens. It
Speaker 6: doesn't allow players to get lazy. It allows you know,
Speaker 6: there's going to be a standard that will have to
Speaker 6: be met with those players in the room.
Speaker 1: Much baseball Jay's in Seattle, so this fits. Max Serger
Speaker 1: is making a rehab start with the Jays Farm Club
Speaker 1: in Vancouver tomorrow against eugen Can you I remember Rob
Speaker 1: Deer when the C's were affiliated with Milwaukee, Kelly Gruber
Speaker 1: back in the day. Can you remember any major leaguers
Speaker 1: who played here in the you know, made me make it,
Speaker 1: made a rehab start in the midst of their career
Speaker 1: or maybe at the end of their career, like like
Speaker 1: Rob Deer. Of course, you had a lot of guys
Speaker 1: like trey Ya Savage for instance, and David Schneider on
Speaker 1: their way up. But what about what about established major
Speaker 1: players who had established themselves as major leaguers playing at
Speaker 1: nat Bailly You know, for the.
Speaker 6: First time Donnie this year and it's funny, it's the
Speaker 6: last show I'm doing with you guys.
Speaker 9: Great question, that's.
Speaker 10: Like, stop it. Oh, I think you know the To
Speaker 10: my mind, I can't remember. I do remember one player
Speaker 10: that didn't do a rehab aside. Remember when they were
Speaker 10: the White Sox affiliate, and I believe it was Bo
Speaker 10: Jackson or Frank Thomas, one of those big guns was
Speaker 10: kind of I want to say it was Bo Jackson
Speaker 10: was coming off an injury and there was so much
Speaker 10: talk that he would be assigned to Vancouver and he wasn't.
Speaker 10: He was assigned to Double A Birmingham to get his
Speaker 10: rehab done because they determined Vancouver was too cold, I guess,
Speaker 10: or you know, weren't really fans of the weather. But no,
Speaker 10: I can't remember a player in the future Hall of
Speaker 10: Famer such as Max Scherzer, you know, that type of
Speaker 10: player doing a rehab assignment in Vancouver.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna it's gonna be special. Just I don't
Speaker 1: know how long he lasts, just just to see him
Speaker 1: at you, like I say, you know, you and I
Speaker 1: go back a long time, so does Rick. I this
Speaker 1: this again. Rob Dear is the only one I can
Speaker 1: think of. And it was at the end of his career.
Speaker 9: Here Deer played pretty much half a season or three quarters.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Yeah, when the Angels were the affiliate.
Speaker 1: I believe it was the Brewers. Is the Brewers, I believe,
Speaker 1: No Angels, Okay, okay, okay, I'm gonna look it up.
Speaker 6: Like way back in the late seventies early eighties, the
Speaker 6: Angels were more like in the nineties. So yeah, when
Speaker 6: he was with the Angels organization. But you're right, he
Speaker 6: did playing the bigs with the Brewers. So no, I
Speaker 6: can't think of anybody.
Speaker 1: You know, when you said this is your last hit.
Speaker 1: You you know what what you just said there, this
Speaker 1: is your last hit? You don't correct the big guy.
Speaker 6: Come on, hey, by the way, that scoreboard should read
Speaker 6: don zero modes three.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, just like the old days.
Speaker 6: I'll say, yeah, just like the old days. Hey, but yeah,
Speaker 6: it's gonna be a tremendous environment in Vancouver. You know,
Speaker 6: I'll tell you one story, Seas used to have a
Speaker 6: pitching coach by the name of Sunny Cyber or probably
Speaker 6: Pete Riker. Pete Riker pitched for the Dodgers, and this.
Speaker 1: Was Hey, we're almost at a time you're making quick hurry.
Speaker 6: Up, all says Pete Riker talked about the atmosphere Nat
Speaker 6: Bailey Stadium equaling the Major League stadium because the fans
Speaker 6: are right on top of you. Said it was an
Speaker 6: amazing atmosphere. So that's one thing that Nat Bailey has
Speaker 6: going for it. And this is a guy who played
Speaker 6: in the World Series. He said, this is one of
Speaker 6: the best baseball environments he played in because the fans
Speaker 6: are right on top of you.
Speaker 1: I think you might have been right about Rob. Dear damn,
Speaker 1: it might might. The research continues. Moch. We can't this
Speaker 1: is our first season with you. We can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1: You've been great all year and we sure appreciate it.

Speaker 1: are you smiling at? What are you laughing at? What
Speaker 1: are you ripping us for joining us? From the athletic

Speaker 11: Always a blast to join you, Always a blast. To
Speaker 11: have a chance to talk Cannucks with your audience. I'm
Speaker 11: truly one of the highlights of my week. So it's
Speaker 11: been been a lot of fun. Thanks for having me
Speaker 11: all season, and I hope you both enjoy a lovely
Speaker 11: summer you towo, Ryan, and I hope you and your
Speaker 11: families enjoy some extra I'm together over the next few months.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's just so a bit. But you
Speaker 1: know how much we appreciate you to cry. Where are you?
Speaker 9: Are you?
Speaker 1: What casino are you in? Right now? There's a board
Speaker 1: behind you.
Speaker 11: And I didn't quite I didn't quite make it to
Speaker 11: the rink. I met a pizza shop in Langley. They're
Speaker 11: nice enough to let me use the Wi Fi. It's
Speaker 11: pre lunch rush, so I should be fine. But yeah,
Speaker 11: I mean a little bit of gorilla television for my
Speaker 11: last hit of the air. And if anyone wants to
Speaker 11: check their keynot numbers, just.
Speaker 1: Just look over Wow. Okay, let's focus on tomorrow. Are
Speaker 1: you probably yesterday with the Canucks my first as the
Speaker 1: free agency period opens up. Let's start first of all
Speaker 1: with with Luke Shan for a third time in Vancouver.
Speaker 1: Did that make sense?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 11: I mean anything that's one year long for a high
Speaker 11: character guy. Great, right Like, that's easy when a tap
Speaker 11: in for this organization. Luke Shen carries himself the right way.
Speaker 11: I mean, this is a guy, gentlemen, this is a
Speaker 11: one way contract in his NHL career. You know, you
Speaker 11: don't stick around and get eight one way contracts as
Speaker 11: a non star contributor if you're not a tremendous human being,
Speaker 11: right Like, if you're not the sort of guy that
Speaker 11: teams around the league know that they need in the room.
Speaker 11: And that's what Luke Shen is. We all know what
Speaker 11: he's about. We all know what he represents. We all
Speaker 11: know what this franchise and this province means to him.
Speaker 11: So you know it's a one year deal, there's an
Speaker 11: NMC attached to it, But you know, Shen's going to
Speaker 11: be a guy who you can put out there with
Speaker 11: a young defenseman.
Speaker 12: You know, he's not going to get picked on.
Speaker 11: That young defenseman's not going to get picked on when
Speaker 11: they're sharing the ice with Luke Shen. Shen's going to
Speaker 11: be able to support them when things are going badly,
Speaker 11: as they probably will for the Canucks over the courts
Speaker 11: the next season. He's going to have a positive attitude
Speaker 11: on bad days. He's been through it all. He's seen
Speaker 11: it all. This is the guy who's, you know, been
Speaker 11: a veteran who struggled and got sent down to the
Speaker 11: American League.
Speaker 12: He's seen that. He's been a top top.
Speaker 11: Five pick in a high pressure Canadian market who wasn't
Speaker 11: meeting expectations. He's been through that, right, He's been a
Speaker 11: veteran scrapping to get another one way deal.
Speaker 3: He's been through that.
Speaker 12: Like, there's nothing.
Speaker 11: That anyone on this roster, any young guys, has seen
Speaker 11: or could be going through that Luke Shen hasn't already
Speaker 11: been going through. I mean, isn't that exactly what you're
Speaker 11: talking about when you're talking about insulating young players. You know,
Speaker 11: I don't know that he's a top four guy anymore.
Speaker 11: I don't know that he's a high end penalty killer anymore.
Speaker 11: But I know he can hit, and I know he
Speaker 11: can be a high character person, you know, the old
Speaker 11: the old like an extra assistant coach out there, right,
Speaker 11: It's like, I think he can help you in terms
Speaker 11: of all of those little things you need. And just
Speaker 11: as importantly and gentlemen, I think this goes across the board,
Speaker 11: like Luke Shen big, right handed, physical, that's usually a
Speaker 11: guy that has demanded the trade deadline, but he's probably
Speaker 11: not going to help the Canucks win games. Paul Cotter fast,
Speaker 11: scores off the rush, throws big hits, but look, he
Speaker 11: doesn't really contribute to the build up. His teams don't
Speaker 11: generally rate much more when he's on the ice. In fact,
Speaker 11: they generate a lot less when he's on the ice
Speaker 11: than they do when he's not. You know, Jamie Alexiak,
Speaker 11: especially going from Marcus Patterson to Jamie Alexik, Like that's
Speaker 11: a material downgrade. Right, So this team effectively, with what
Speaker 11: they brought in and what they subtracted, also got materially
Speaker 11: worse last yesterday, right, Like they did nothing to prevent
Speaker 11: them from being at the bottom of the NHL standings
Speaker 11: this season.
Speaker 12: And guess what, that's a great thing.
Speaker 11: That's exactly what they need to be doing with Land
Speaker 11: and DuPont and nisserprib Blov and you know, Milan Sunstrom
Speaker 11: and Alexis Joseph sort of populating what's likely to be
Speaker 11: a very very starry Top five of the twenty twenty
Speaker 11: seven NHL drafts. So you got to like that part
Speaker 11: of it too, Luke Shen good guy, good player, probably.
Speaker 12: Not good enough to alter this team's fate. That's the sweet.
Speaker 4: Spot, uh, the Marcus Petterson trade. He is not afraid
Speaker 4: to ask agents to wave no moves. He did find
Speaker 4: out that yesterday. He asked Marcus to wave in the afternoon.
Speaker 4: Marcus took some time and he but this is a
Speaker 4: good move, Thomas, in the sense that, hey, you got
Speaker 4: a no move in Vancouver doesn't mean you're one hundred
Speaker 4: percent safe.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 12: Well, and I mean, how could you be?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 11: And for Marcus Patterson a chance to go to an
Speaker 11: organization that did some pretty interesting work remodeling their blue
Speaker 11: line and remodeling their forward group yesterday. They're going to
Speaker 11: be in it to win it every year, whether or
Speaker 11: not they achieve it or not. So you know, it's
Speaker 11: a good landing spot for him. Familiarity, I'll have a
Speaker 11: big role. And look, he's a good player, Like he's
Speaker 11: a really good player. I know it didn't look great
Speaker 11: in Vancouver, but given how the structure fell apart around him,
Speaker 11: you know, I think the truth is that he's much
Speaker 11: better than he looked on most nights last season for
Speaker 11: the Vancouver Canucks. So you know, it's good that the
Speaker 11: organization was able to get a veteran a wave. It's
Speaker 11: good that they were able to subtract one of that
Speaker 11: group of seven now group of six, you know, late
Speaker 11: twenties guys with some variety of no mover, no trade
Speaker 11: protection long term.
Speaker 12: I think that was necessary.
Speaker 11: You'd like to see them do more, to be totally
Speaker 11: honest with you, gentlemen, right like, there's still more to do.
Speaker 11: I think before we're looking at this as sort of
Speaker 11: a home run rebuilding off season. But it was a
Speaker 11: good start. It was consistent with sort of the patient
Speaker 11: direction that the Canucks have enunciated, have described. You know,
Speaker 11: to till yesterday, all we'd had was words and intention,
Speaker 11: And now I think we can begin to see the
Speaker 11: shape of what this you know, Johnson Sadine era rebuild
Speaker 11: might look like. And we know it's very patient because
Speaker 11: there's no more patient asset you could acquire than a
Speaker 11: twenty thirty first round pick that might not even convey
Speaker 11: until twenty thirty one. I mean, my goodness, that's as
Speaker 11: patient as it gets. So yeah, I mean I like
Speaker 11: that deal. I will say You know, I would have
Speaker 11: liked that deal a lot less if they hadn't pivoted
Speaker 11: and then brought in Jamie Alexia. Right, if that move
Speaker 11: had been a pure salary dumb for a draft pick that,
Speaker 11: let's be real, is so far a field, like, it's
Speaker 11: so far into the future that it's not going to
Speaker 11: aid the Canucks efforts to accumulate the futures that will
Speaker 11: power sort of or fuel this rebuild.
Speaker 12: Right, I mean, so the next two three years where you're.
Speaker 11: Going to be at the bottom of the standings hopefully
Speaker 11: and sort of mining the players that you hope are
Speaker 11: the core of the next great Connects team, Like by
Speaker 11: twenty thirty twenty thirty one, you'd certainly hope that the
Speaker 11: Canucks are beginning.
Speaker 12: To pull out of the skid.
Speaker 11: So this first round pick coming back for a player
Speaker 11: that I'd consider to be Vancouver's second most marketable asset,
Speaker 11: you know, that's not going to be a pick that
Speaker 11: fuels this rebuild unless it's traded.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 12: What the deal does, though, is it stores value in
Speaker 12: a better way.
Speaker 11: Every year the thirty year old defenseman plays, their trade
Speaker 11: value diminishes, and Marcus Petterson, while I think he's a
Speaker 11: very good player. You know, he's still a thirty year
Speaker 11: old defenseman. His trade value is going to decline year
Speaker 11: after year. You get a first round pick for him
Speaker 11: in twenty thirty. Every year that that draft gets closer,
Speaker 11: the value of that pick increases. Plus that draft pick
Speaker 11: can't underperform, it can't get hurt. Right, It's a safer
Speaker 11: way to store value for a team that's not competing.
Speaker 11: But for me, the key is to have sent him
Speaker 11: out net at a future right and then to have
Speaker 11: used free agency to replace him. You know, credibly, I
Speaker 11: think Alexiak is a material downgrade on Pederson, but nonetheless
Speaker 11: he's a he's a comparable player. To do that without
Speaker 11: any acquisition costs, Like, that's asset management one on one,
Speaker 11: that's adding value one a one. That's exactly what the
Speaker 11: Connects need to keep doing, right. It's not enough to
Speaker 11: do it once. They've got to keep doing that with Peterson, Debresque,
Speaker 11: with Philip Peronic Ultimately, like there's more work to do
Speaker 11: in a similar vein, but at least they've demonstrated and
Speaker 11: I think built some trust with the fan base that
Speaker 11: they sort of see the vision and are willing to
Speaker 11: be patient and are willing to make these sorts of maneuvers.
Speaker 4: Okay, but patients at Debrsk probably what best time was
Speaker 4: probably the NHL Draft to trade him Thomas, And now
Speaker 4: you're gonna have to do in July and August. Teams
Speaker 4: have used up their money on July first. You know,
Speaker 4: they could have fit Debrusk in at the draft or
Speaker 4: July first. Now a lot of teams are out, but
Speaker 4: he can still move to Brusque in July and August.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, there's so much cap space in the system.
Speaker 11: There are teams that are pressed up against it and
Speaker 11: have different considerations. And by the way, there might be
Speaker 11: opportunity there. You know, I was thinking about Utah contending
Speaker 11: with that offer sheet, like I would assume that they're
Speaker 11: gonna match Barrett Hayton. Yeah, match the offer sheet, if
Speaker 11: only to save face. But you know they have the
Speaker 11: space to match. But it is a little bit tight.
Speaker 3: I don't think.
Speaker 12: I don't think it's going.
Speaker 11: To be easy to get paid to take on good players,
Speaker 11: but I do wonder about like a Brandon Tanev two
Speaker 11: times two point five fast, good guy, right, I mean,
Speaker 11: is that an example of a team that might pay
Speaker 11: you to take a pretty good player and a pretty
Speaker 11: good person for a rebuild, right like that, That's the
Speaker 11: sort of call I think the.
Speaker 12: Canucks need to be making today.
Speaker 11: Whether or not it's possible, it's certainly an angle that
Speaker 11: I think is worth exploring. So yeah, I mean, look,
Speaker 11: I think there's a lot of business.
Speaker 12: Still to do for the Canucks.
Speaker 11: You know, I heard at times over the past week
Speaker 11: that they were very motivated the point of desperation in
Speaker 11: trying to move Eleas Petterson. I wouldn't be stunned if
Speaker 11: that still happens. I'd be surprised, because you know, the
Speaker 11: teams that I think are the most credible suitors, like
Speaker 11: the La Kings, are some of those teams that are
Speaker 11: have most of their money spoken for.
Speaker 1: Right right.
Speaker 11: You know, I still think there's there should be avenues
Speaker 11: potentially available to the Canucks that that are worth exploring.
Speaker 11: You know, Tobraska, I think similarly, And then you know,
Speaker 11: I'd add Buoyam and Liam Ogrin and possible extensions. They
Speaker 11: became extension eligible, and man, we are seeing this all
Speaker 11: over the league. Like you saw the prices yesterday, you
Speaker 11: saw the inflation, you saw the seven million times five
Speaker 11: for MARCHMNT or the eight times three for Jacob Truba,
Speaker 11: like get your deals done now and look the perfect
Speaker 11: object lesson for me. The Carolina Hurricanes last season, Right,
Speaker 11: there were two guys that had two undersized forwards in
Speaker 11: Jackson Blake and Logan stankovin career highs and points of
Speaker 11: thirty eight and thirty seven.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 11: Neither had played more than one hundred and two NHL
Speaker 11: games in their career. So these weren't exactly proven guys.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 11: People will roll their eyes now and be like, well,
Speaker 11: that's a first line center on a Cup team.
Speaker 12: It's like, yeah, that's a year later.
Speaker 11: Guys like that, he was not that guy twelve months
Speaker 11: ago July one, eight year deal times six million. July
Speaker 11: twenty fourth for Jackson Blake, eight year deal, five and
Speaker 11: a half million, right. And the contrast with that is
Speaker 11: the Anahem Ducks. The Anaheim Ducks went into last season
Speaker 11: and allowed center Leo Carlson, twenty one and twenty two
Speaker 11: year old winger Cutter Goce to play out the season
Speaker 11: without extensions. Cutter Coache scores forty goals. Leo Carlson is
Speaker 11: a point per game stud thoroughbred two way Center, those
Speaker 11: guys are about to break the bank. In fact, the
Speaker 11: Ducks reportedly, according to La Friedman like mostly sat on
Speaker 11: the sidelines yesterday to make sure they had a mot
Speaker 11: of cap space to ward off any would be Offershooters
Speaker 11: interested in pursuing Leo Carlson like, they're in a tough spot.
Speaker 11: They're going to pay millions more than they would have
Speaker 11: if they were proactive about signing these guys. And this
Speaker 11: is what cap growth dynamics look like. You pay early,
Speaker 11: you pay long, or you pay an awful lot more later.
Speaker 11: The Canucks need to prioritize getting at least one of
Speaker 11: those guys done, and probably both in my opinion, across
Speaker 11: the next month.
Speaker 1: Reck Our thanks to the pizza joint for setting up
Speaker 1: or letting letting them use their wif letting you use
Speaker 1: their WiFi, Thomas say you said very to them. We
Speaker 1: can't thank you enough for everything you've done for us,
Speaker 1: not just this year but the year's previous. U great
Speaker 1: as always, my friend.
Speaker 11: Thank you gentlemen. Always happy to be on with you guys.
Speaker 11: Enjoy your summer and the same to your audience as well.
Speaker 11: Go Canada tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Up all right, Thomas, Drant said the athletic and when
Speaker 1: he said go Canada's more at the moment, he meant
Speaker 1: Saturday Saturday. We all think the one mistake he made
Speaker 1: all year and he saved it for the for the
Speaker 1: very end. Okay, by the way, he hit on something
Speaker 1: there and that's a I don't think we talked about
Speaker 1: this yesterday, but the offer sheet for Barrett Haydon, Oh
Speaker 1: Devils have had to have an offer sheet one year
Speaker 1: four point seven to seven five. I believe the compensation
Speaker 1: is a second rounder, so we'll see what happens. We
Speaker 1: got to hit the Wadling Dog poll question. Watling Dog
Speaker 1: is opening early and is your spot for Thomas? Are
Speaker 1: you listening Canada's match against Morocco on Saturday morning starts
Speaker 1: at tend Catch the match live and loud on all
Speaker 1: twenty two TVs with full sound. Maybe they have keenoh,
Speaker 1: come sit and stay at the Waddling Dog Today Wick
Speaker 1: Ryan got her up the Waterling Dog pup poll question.
Speaker 4: What has been Ryan Johnson's best move since Friday? The
Speaker 4: Marcus Petterson trade which got a first round pick. I
Speaker 4: know it's a few years away, but it's a first
Speaker 4: round pick. Then comes drafting Klea Mahultra and then Shen
Speaker 4: Gallagher and Alexiak down at the bottom, but getting the
Speaker 4: first round pick from Marcus Petterson.
Speaker 1: Tremendous word. I don't think anybody has any who followed
Speaker 1: the Canucks for a long time has any problem with
Speaker 1: any of these developments in the were the only ones. Okay,
Speaker 1: a little bit of business and then we'll get ready
Speaker 1: for Big Rye. July seventh, Able Auctions will sell a
Speaker 1: sheet metal fabrication shop including two acusher twelve foot shares,
Speaker 1: an auto fold, duck, farming line truck, OH welder is

Speaker 1: Okay, just I had a big ride the Twitter guy
Speaker 1: baside ocean Front Resort in Parksville. Inbox, I hate doing this,
Speaker 1: but I think Moj is right. You know why I
Speaker 1: know Coj is right because Don and siicamouse and who's
Speaker 1: to go against Donn and Sickamoose says he's right. This
Speaker 1: is from Don inbox baseide inbox, Don MoG's right. In
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety five, Rob Deer did do a minor league
Speaker 1: stint with Vancouver as a member of the California Angels.
Speaker 1: And I don't I don't think. I think I've got
Speaker 1: this right, Rob dear going back in time here, you know,
Speaker 1: bear with me here, folks, robbed you're best known as
Speaker 1: a Milwaukee and brewer. But the end of his career,
Speaker 1: I guess acquired by the Angels, and I remember interviewing him.
Speaker 1: I thought it was with the Brewers, but Moge and
Speaker 1: don who's to argue against them? Apparently they're right. Ryan,
Speaker 1: you're happy to hear that. I'm sure.
Speaker 4: Dog ver Encyclopedia very very excited about that.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 14: We got a few photos to wrap up the season,
Speaker 14: one of which, doll Wall you got the info on
Speaker 14: this because it's or something a neighbor or something like that.
Speaker 4: This is my neighbor, Kelly right put got it up
Speaker 4: on the right side there. That's my neighbor, Kelly with
Speaker 4: his buddy at Green Acres golf course, wearing his Donnie
Speaker 4: and Dolly shirt. That's Kelly, a good guy who walks
Speaker 4: his dog. I see him every night. His dog is
Speaker 4: the biggest dog in the neighborhood, great dane.
Speaker 1: But it's me.
Speaker 4: It's me. My dog sees him and he go turns, run,
Speaker 4: makes a U turn. Big dog, big dog. Kelly's got
Speaker 4: a big dog. Great guy. That's my neighbor, Kelly. Right
Speaker 4: there on the right side. That's a good sun hat.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, that's a great guy.
Speaker 1: Great guy. That's my neighbor. Thanks to Kelly, Kelly, great guy.
Speaker 14: A few more photos a little later on in the show. Okay, So,
Speaker 14: as we usually do final show of the year, I've
Speaker 14: put together our Blooper reel.
Speaker 1: But this is also known as a Dully Wall ray.
Speaker 14: Just a reminder, this is just from because we do
Speaker 14: it at Christmas, so that's September to Christmas.
Speaker 5: So this is from Christmas till now.
Speaker 14: So that's what some of our greatest hits, best moments
Speaker 14: over the past few months or so.
Speaker 5: All put it together in one.
Speaker 4: If you're ever justified Ryan to stick your finger out,
Speaker 4: it's watching.
Speaker 13: No, it's not right, but you tell me you haven't.
Speaker 13: You haven't had stupid moments Vegas. I've been fingered during traffic.
Speaker 13: You know we've all done it during traffic. I mean

Speaker 1: Women in Sports Day game is seven o five pm.
Speaker 1: For tickets and info, visit m i LB dot com
Speaker 1: Slash Vancouver CFL reporter for TSN. He's been on the
Speaker 1: World Cup beat as well. Farhand Lology joining us now.
Speaker 1: Thanks for doing this, sir.
Speaker 16: How are you ANX beat? Don't forget that I was
Speaker 16: at the Rodge yesterday.
Speaker 1: All right, okay, apologize for that. What do you think
Speaker 1: of the moves they've made nine draft in the last week?
Speaker 1: Ryan Johnson nine draft picks, two trades, five now six
Speaker 1: signings farhand. What do you think?
Speaker 16: Well, first of all, the media meal for yesterday was
Speaker 16: that probably the best ever right right was it was yeah,
Speaker 16: cage and chicken and potatoes, and Stean broccoley was it
Speaker 16: was really good. So that was a good move because
Speaker 16: clearly an upgrade is happening there. But no, look, I
Speaker 16: think the one thing with Ryan Johnson is that he's
Speaker 16: being very deliberate and the one thing that really stands
Speaker 16: out is the number of times he's talked about wanting
Speaker 16: to make sure there are defined roles. So he wanted
Speaker 16: a character guy, went out and got Brendan Gallagher. Certainly
Speaker 16: the guys in the back end and Luke Sheen and
Speaker 16: Jamie Alexiak fill that role as well. But he also
Speaker 16: wants to insulate some of the young defensemans, so he's
Speaker 16: got one guy on each side. You know they're capable
Speaker 16: of doing that, so not everything is going to fall
Speaker 16: on those guys every night. You can play a veter
Speaker 16: next to a young guy and kind of helped work
Speaker 16: him through this properly.
Speaker 3: So I think all of that is positive.
Speaker 16: You know, I don't know a ton about Catter, but
Speaker 16: you know, in terms of the other moves that they've made,
Speaker 16: I think that they're in line with what he wants.
Speaker 16: So this doesn't make them younger, but it does allow
Speaker 16: some support for the younger players. And when you get
Speaker 16: rid of those Zogland, who I guess was younger twenty
Speaker 16: five years old, that it didn't necessarily have a fit here
Speaker 16: By replacing one and adding one, I don't.
Speaker 12: Think you're blocking a path for the next guy.
Speaker 16: And then I think if they move on from Jake
Speaker 16: de Brush, which I think is still going to be
Speaker 16: out there, I think you know that that's going to
Speaker 16: open up an opportunity as well. And I do know
Speaker 16: that there has been some conversation around Elias Petterson. I
Speaker 16: do know that the Kings made a call and they
Speaker 16: kicked the tires, and I don't think their offer or not.
Speaker 16: It wasn't a formal offer, but I don't think what
Speaker 16: they were discussing providing back was necessarily going to be
Speaker 16: good enough yet.
Speaker 3: But I think those conversations are going to continue as well.
Speaker 1: We mentioned the World Cup beat a year on it
Speaker 1: for TSN here in Vancouver tonight it's Switzerland versus Algeria.
Speaker 1: BC Place eight o'clock. Is this tournament? I know it's
Speaker 1: the World Cup, but there was some negativity going into this,
Speaker 1: especially from Ricks. Has this tournament exceeded your expectations?
Speaker 16: I think it has, right, And I think when you
Speaker 16: expand a team, you dilute the field, or expand a field, right,
Speaker 16: you diluted a little bit.
Speaker 3: And so going to forty eight teams, there were some concerns.
Speaker 16: I know, there was ten African teams in and people
Speaker 16: were worried about that, like what are they doing here?
Speaker 3: Well, nine of them got to the round.
Speaker 16: Of thirty two, and some of those teams gave some
Speaker 16: of the biggest powers in the world massive scares, right
Speaker 16: when you know, when you look at what's happened, you
Speaker 16: know England, England got a scare, you know, and others
Speaker 16: even have even aided through to the sixteen, So, you know,
Speaker 16: I think the matches have been have been closer and
Speaker 16: more entertaining in my mind.
Speaker 3: I mean, we've had more scoring and just.
Speaker 16: All the scenes from every city, Like certainly Vancouver's the
Speaker 16: best because we know where the best, but you don't
Speaker 16: have to go down, you don't have to go far
Speaker 16: to Seattle and see some great scenes down there, you know,
Speaker 16: i'd loomen and and just everywhere, right, the marches in Dallas,
Speaker 16: the marches in New York, the fans everywhere.
Speaker 3: It's shown, the best of North America. It's shown, and
Speaker 3: it's shown that the game is slowly shrinking in terms
Speaker 3: of more teams are there, but the gap is shrinking
Speaker 3: between them.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the Lions.
Speaker 4: You can't give up thirty seven points a game foehand
Speaker 4: because you're putting immense pressure on your offense to produce
Speaker 4: more than thirty seven. Like, what's going on with the
Speaker 4: d Are they going to be able to fix this?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 4: What is happening there?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 16: Rick, First of all, the last game wasn't really a
Speaker 16: fault of the defense in my estimation. I think it
Speaker 16: was the special teams, and I think as a result,
Speaker 16: you've seen a change there, right.
Speaker 3: You know, you give them a kicker turn for a touchdown,
Speaker 3: you give them a fumble.
Speaker 16: Inside your own twenty five, right, Like those things are problems.
Speaker 16: Their coverage teams have been awful all season long, but
Speaker 16: you know they're they're losing. You know, you took a
Speaker 16: penalty on off sides when you had them off the
Speaker 16: field and now.
Speaker 3: They who are touchdown later on that drive?
Speaker 16: Right when, Like, while I don't think the defense is elite,
Speaker 16: you know, they're certainly not good enough to be overcoming
Speaker 16: those mistakes by other elements of the team on a
Speaker 16: regular basis.
Speaker 3: And this team is being you know, you're flipping the field.
Speaker 16: They're losing you know, ten sometimes twenty yards on a
Speaker 16: field flip all the time. So you know, in the
Speaker 16: offense was tune out a number of times. I do
Speaker 16: think that the problems are collective. I think the first
Speaker 16: two games, I'm with you, right like, I think there's
Speaker 16: a ton to be desired on the part of the defense.
Speaker 16: I do think the defense took some steps in the
Speaker 16: last game, but are going to need to.
Speaker 3: Take a bigger step. And you know, the secondary play
Speaker 3: still needs to improve.
Speaker 16: But keep this in context, guys, offenses across the league
Speaker 16: are way up only three times this season so fourteen games.
Speaker 16: That means twenty eight teams have played offense in fourteen games.
Speaker 16: Only three of those twenty eight as a team had
Speaker 16: less than twenty five points.
Speaker 3: Right, Like, offenses are through the roof.
Speaker 16: Right now, you got three quarterbacks on pace to break
Speaker 16: Doug Flutie's passing record right of sixty six hundred yards.
Speaker 3: Now, it's not going to happen.
Speaker 16: But I'm just telling you that offenses league wide are up.
Speaker 16: We were looking at the numbers right last year at
Speaker 16: this time, eight starts had already been lost to injury
Speaker 16: by quarterbacks already at this point in the season. This year,
Speaker 16: there's been none. So all those things add up to
Speaker 16: more offense.
Speaker 4: Okay, well, guess who's coming to town. The Eskimos. And
Speaker 4: they're a whole lot better than they have been.
Speaker 16: You can say the other words, it's okay. Oh, Edmonton
Speaker 16: wishes they could change it back.
Speaker 4: I know, yeah and all and Donnie and I and you.
Speaker 4: Eskimo is an empire, Warren Moon, Hugh Campbell. I. I
Speaker 4: just can't get Elks in my head. But anyways, Edmonton's
Speaker 4: in town there.
Speaker 16: I can't get into my head. All the soccer terms
Speaker 16: I can't. Like, there's so many that when I when
Speaker 16: I get match not game, and side not team, I'd
Speaker 16: say goaltending instead of goalkeeping or whatever. Like there's too many.
Speaker 1: The worst part is that I'm starting to use them
Speaker 1: all the time.
Speaker 4: Tie draw, don't do that, I said, Tiemes.
Speaker 16: I know our games are doing it correctly, our North
Speaker 16: American leagues, our terms are correct.
Speaker 3: To switch.
Speaker 1: I hear you say brace on TSN, I'm going to
Speaker 1: turn off the channel.
Speaker 3: What's the brace? Like, what's the two goals as of brace? Okay, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I forgot that.
Speaker 4: It's a last show of the year, last show of
Speaker 4: the year. Clearly, Elk Malx Elks, the Elks.
Speaker 12: The Elks are legit right like you know ed Hervey
Speaker 12: the way he built.
Speaker 16: The Elks when they were the Eskimos, when they won
Speaker 16: the Great Cup with Mike Riley, and how he's building
Speaker 16: them now, there are such similarities to how deliberate.
Speaker 3: You know, we talked about Ryan Johnson.
Speaker 16: Well, Ed Hervey's been the same way, and he wasn't
Speaker 16: like that when he was building the Lions right like
Speaker 16: it was I'm going to show you and prove this
Speaker 16: and stick it to them, and you know, and I
Speaker 16: like that a lot, and I've had this conversation with him.
Speaker 16: But the care with which he's building Edmonton now reminds
Speaker 16: me so much of what he did then. And you're
Speaker 16: seeing the fruits of the labor right like last year
Speaker 16: he knew he couldn't spend on the secondary. He knew
Speaker 16: he had to get young in the secondary, and this
Speaker 16: year there's significantly better as a result. And that's why
Speaker 16: with the lion, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Speaker 3: Everybody wants quick fix.
Speaker 16: And I know, when you got a quarterback like Nathan Urke,
Speaker 16: you gotta you know, you want to strike while the
Speaker 16: ron is hot. But Ed took a deliberate, patient approach
Speaker 16: right this year. He had to make sure he got
Speaker 16: the offensive line beefed up right, you know, like he's
Speaker 16: kind of gone position by position and you know, for
Speaker 16: all the quarterback play that we're talking about, if you
Speaker 16: ask me for my MP right now, it's justin rankin
Speaker 16: Like that guy's going to be a handful for BC
Speaker 16: this weekend, right, Like, you better get him early because
Speaker 16: he's the rare guy that has breakaway speed and between
Speaker 16: the tackles, power and shiftiness, like he's got.
Speaker 1: All of it.
Speaker 16: He can play out of the back and he can
Speaker 16: pass protect. So that guy's a handful. So they got
Speaker 16: to find a way to stop him and then go
Speaker 16: from there.
Speaker 3: But it's a handful, you know. Here here's the parallel.
Speaker 16: Twenty eleven Edmonton five and oh BC and five, and
Speaker 16: that's where the turnaround began. Now one team's three and
Speaker 16: oh and the other team's own three, So you know,
Speaker 16: we'll see, maybe, maybe it'll strike twice.
Speaker 1: A deliberate, patient approach working for the Edmonton Elks people
Speaker 1: in Vancouver, hoping it works for the Cannucks. Farhand, thanks
Speaker 1: for everything this season. Thanks for today's hit. We couldn't
Speaker 1: have done it without you, buddy.
Speaker 3: Why do we back? Can you guys take too long
Speaker 3: of a break.

Speaker 1: pull question now? Our next segment, Next segment, Okay again,
Speaker 1: our thanks to Farhand up. Next we're going to update
Speaker 1: the waddling dog question and talk some more about the Cannucks,
Speaker 1: with some emphasis on a player not many people in
Speaker 1: this market know much about Paul Cotter. Donny Dolly the Team.

Speaker 17: as week, Shame tries a light of fire under his team.
Speaker 17: He's got the left fan going off. Comes the helmet
Speaker 17: of Alexia to great boys. Lexiac switches to the rights
Speaker 17: and now he comes back. But the last after Shan
Speaker 17: had the early upper hand, they continue to throw man.
Speaker 1: There's a left from Alexiac at the end. That was
Speaker 1: back on January twenty fifth, twenty twenty three. Luke Shan
Speaker 1: versus Jamie Alexiak Seattle versus Vancouver, and now they're teammates
Speaker 1: in Vancouver best pals you'd hope. So, okay, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk some more about the connection Paul Cotter in
Speaker 1: a second. Meanwhile, let's update the Waddling Dog poll. Question
Speaker 1: Wadling Dog opening early and is your spot for Canada's
Speaker 1: match against Morocco Saturday morning, ten o'clock start. Catch the
Speaker 1: match live and loud on all twenty two t TVs
Speaker 1: with full sound. Come sit and stay at the dog today, Rick.
Speaker 4: Ryan, get her up the Waddling Dog pop pople question, Well,
Speaker 4: what has been Ryan Johnson's best move since Friday? And
Speaker 4: look at this Marcus Patterson leading by large margin seventy
Speaker 4: five percent, because the Canucks god round draft pick in
Speaker 4: return for him and going forward down if they can
Speaker 4: accumulate a ton of first and second round picks, it
Speaker 4: would be good because they need to finish at the
Speaker 4: bottom pick high to get out of this message. Yeah,
Speaker 4: twenty thirty first round a draft pick top ten protected,
Speaker 4: so it could be twenty thirty one. Yeah, absolutely, people
Speaker 4: like it, like in that trade.
Speaker 1: Okay. Meanwhile, yesterday the Cannucks amongst their five signings yesterday,
Speaker 1: and they made another signing today. Matthew Steinberg from the
Speaker 1: Colorado organization. But yesterday one of the players they picked
Speaker 1: up that not a lot of people know a lot
Speaker 1: about in this market is Paul Cotter. And all the
Speaker 1: talk around him when you dig a little deeper, is
Speaker 1: that he's got sweeth hands, he's got he's got a personality.
Speaker 1: Signed a one year deal. Two point one point five
Speaker 1: left winger, can play center. He's from Michigan Vegas, fourth
Speaker 1: round draft choice back in twenty eighteen. There's an example
Speaker 1: of the sweet hands there. And speaking of the sweet hands,
Speaker 1: Paul Catter is known as his career high sixteen goals,
Speaker 1: but somewhat of a shootout specialist. Yes, Derek, if you
Speaker 1: don't mind, we're gonna go back to a Golden Knights game.
Speaker 1: This is so gia much respect against. Let's go back
Speaker 1: a bit here. Let me let me set it up here, Derek,
Speaker 1: if you don't mind, Golden Knights game versus Columbus in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Now, Logan Thompson is gonna make a
Speaker 1: shootout save, and the player he makes to save against
Speaker 1: is somebody else that Cannucks signed yesterday just by coincidence,
Speaker 1: Trey fix Awanski. And he was with Columbus at the
Speaker 1: time you're gonna see here, Derek, you can run it now.
Speaker 1: Logan Thompson is going to signal after making the save
Speaker 1: to the bench. He's going to signal four and three,
Speaker 1: number forty three Paul Catter. He knows what Catter is
Speaker 1: capable of from practices, and sure enough Paul Cotter moved
Speaker 1: moves in against Daniel tear us off. If hats you
Speaker 1: shoot the scores and the Knights win. And Ryan Johnson
Speaker 1: said yesterday when it comes to Paul Cotter, and he
Speaker 1: likes he's got some speed, he likes to hit that.
Speaker 1: He thinks there's more there offensively. And you understand that
Speaker 1: when you see his hands on display at the NHL level.
Speaker 1: So we'll see about him. I mentioned that he's somewhat
Speaker 1: of a character. Also, this is a shot of the
Speaker 1: Devils with Paul Carter after having moved on from Vegas outs.
Speaker 1: Have you seen this roll it here outside their locker
Speaker 1: room waiting to hit the ice and who's playing DJ
Speaker 1: to loosen the boys up? Paul Carter. That's a courtesy
Speaker 1: of conduction spinning the record. So he's got pretending to
Speaker 1: with his stick. That's an airband thing. I get it. Okay,
Speaker 1: but you know you talk about culture having some fun.
Speaker 1: This guy, this guy might help.
Speaker 4: Here's the other thing about Catter I'm going to tell
Speaker 4: you about before. For Surewood came to Vancouver. His highest
Speaker 4: total goals in Vancouver in the NHL was ten. Comes
Speaker 4: to Vancouver, explodes for nineteen. Can Carter do the same? Donnie?
Speaker 4: Can he come here and explode? He's had sixteen? Can
Speaker 4: he get over twenty? What happens when he gets twenty
Speaker 4: goals in Vancouver? Guess what you can do? What you
Speaker 4: did with Keith for Sherwood, go get two second round
Speaker 4: picks for him. I see a lot of similarities between
Speaker 4: the Sherwood signing and the Carter signing. I'm telling you, Donnie,
Speaker 4: if he explodes here in Vancouver, it'll be a good
Speaker 4: situation for the Canucks.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So there you go a little update on the
Speaker 1: relatively unknown in this market. Anyway.
Speaker 4: Oh by the way, Carter, by the way, over ten
Speaker 4: teams showed interest his agent. You know whose agent is done?
Speaker 1: I don't Dan Milstey. Milstey. There you go.
Speaker 4: Is there ever going to be a year when we
Speaker 4: don't have a Millstein client in Vancouver?
Speaker 1: Milstein also the agent of that seven to one kid
Speaker 1: that San Jose drafted in the seven.
Speaker 4: Seven foot one in the seventh round.
Speaker 1: Okay, we got the good guy list, Ryan, if you
Speaker 1: want to set that up.
Speaker 14: So our good pal Tristan to North Vancouver. He's a
Speaker 14: good guy. He is a very good guy. He I
Speaker 14: don't know how he does this, but he makes note of.
Speaker 1: All of the people.
Speaker 5: Dolly Wall throws the label of good guy on pretty much.
Speaker 1: After the season.
Speaker 14: So Derek, you get there's three pages, so you can
Speaker 14: go start with number one. We're not gonna We're obviously
Speaker 14: not gonna read all these names because there's I think
Speaker 14: he had the total. I think he told me the
Speaker 14: total or four hundred and fifty names, including he says
Speaker 14: this in his email, including Curtis Douglas, who I'm pretty
Speaker 14: sure was called a good guy in eight consecutive shows.
Speaker 5: That's according to Tristan and North Vancouver.
Speaker 14: So, I mean, the the amount of people on here, Now,
Speaker 14: there's a lot of people that you would expect. Brook
Speaker 14: Ward's on there, Carl Valentine's on there, Elliet I don't think.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys people expect. Elliott Free.
Speaker 5: Is a lot though, as well, like you see right
Speaker 5: in the middle of your screen.
Speaker 14: He check boss, check, boss, and check. Apparently we're both
Speaker 14: labeled good guy. Chris Chris three times, madam a good guy.
Speaker 14: I don't know who Chris is. You can move on
Speaker 14: to here.
Speaker 1: Derek Caleb Walter was on there as well. By then,
Speaker 1: Don Don Johnson is on Don Johnson Miami Vice. Who
Speaker 1: didn't like Don Johnson Miami Vice.

Speaker 4: Days is number one, the Fawns, followed by Gilligan's Island
Speaker 4: and Freeze Company.
Speaker 1: That's my three favorite all time? Is it just me?
Speaker 1: This is from our friend again Don and Sikamu? Is
Speaker 1: it just me? For the old timers? Remember Brooks Robinson,
Speaker 1: Baltimore Orioles Great played at Capolano Stadium. That was with
Speaker 1: the Mounties. But I think that was before he became
Speaker 1: became a major life a star, a star.
Speaker 4: But he started here in Vancouver and it was the
Speaker 4: expos that it was, Yeah, exposed to centim here, was
Speaker 4: it not Brooks Robinson?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you helped me out. I what was that? They weren't
Speaker 1: around them? That was that was a long long time.
Speaker 1: They were the Mounties and Brooks Robinson played, he was
Speaker 1: a vacuum at third base for the Baltimore or he's
Speaker 1: a lot of people texted and say, what about Sammy Sosa?
Speaker 1: I remember interviewing he was he was here I think
Speaker 1: when they were affiliated, well but with the White Sox
Speaker 1: and yah, let's just say he was small and and
Speaker 1: that changed. What do you got? I wonder why it changed?
Speaker 1: We all know why.
Speaker 4: Uh, this is a good submission.
Speaker 1: Is it just me?
Speaker 4: Or did Vinnie Darnay hit the lotto yesterday? Four point
Speaker 4: two million?
Speaker 1: Four years?
Speaker 4: Washington, Bobby and Donnie. When I saw that contract for
Speaker 4: Vincent d RNA, Cannock signed him for two years, got
Speaker 4: rid of him a few weeks later. For this guy
Speaker 4: to get four point two wow, Wow.
Speaker 1: That might have been the most surprising move figed yesterday,
Speaker 1: especially for people who know him, a fan base that
Speaker 1: knows him fairly well, A carpenter from Chilliwack. Is it
Speaker 1: just me? Cannock surprised me. They removed a long term
Speaker 1: cap hit Marcus Pett. They brought short term capits that
Speaker 1: help this team with the locker room and on the ice.
Speaker 1: I was sure they were going to do fringe deals
Speaker 1: only There wasn't one move they made where I thought, Man,
Speaker 1: that's that's that's not very smart. Everything makes a hell
Speaker 1: lot of sense. And Ryan Johnson and company there they
Speaker 1: are men of their words. They were talking about you know,
Speaker 1: patients and about you know, getting grittier and tougher and
Speaker 1: leaders shaking the right veterans culture who can bring leadership
Speaker 1: to the dressing room. And absolutely very impressive. They're doing
Speaker 1: everything right. They're good. Break. Okay, one last time. We'll
Speaker 1: wrap up the show next and wrap up the poll question.
Speaker 1: Don't need all the team on check. Remember that dead
Speaker 1: electric leaf blower in the garage, still hoping you'll come
Speaker 1: back to life?
Speaker 4: Oh b I see is PC's recycling program for battery
Speaker 4: powered and electric outdoor power equipment.
Speaker 1: Just like other electronics, electric lawn and garden equipment can
Speaker 1: also be when it reaches the end of its useful life.
Speaker 4: Old electric yard tools don't have to end up in
Speaker 4: the landfill. If you're electric outdoor power equipment cappy fixed.
Speaker 1: It could be recycled. Whether it's a leaf blower, trimmer,
Speaker 1: or lawnmower. Many can be recycled for free in BC.
Speaker 1: Visit opeic dot Ca to find a depot near you
Speaker 1: and recycle responsibly. That's ope, I see dot Ca. No,
Speaker 1: you usually do this in a Friday, but this is
Speaker 1: our last show of the week. So here we go
Speaker 1: as we continue our kind of pathetic campaign to try
Speaker 1: to get Patrick Hernandez nineteen seventy nine hit and that
Speaker 1: guy being played on a regular basis at Rogers Arena
Speaker 1: during a Canucks camp. What's a been four or five
Speaker 1: years now? Gretchall great? Shall we'll keep going next season
Speaker 1: as well as we like that song you mentioned that,
Speaker 1: and the Canucks win a big game and that plays, Oh,
Speaker 1: the place would go nuts. Three people would remember the song.
Speaker 1: But still to Doug pul Rick, Ryan.
Speaker 4: Get her up the waddling dog poll question And for
Speaker 4: the last time this season, what has been Ryan Johnson's
Speaker 4: best move since Friday? Look at this the Marcus Patterson
Speaker 4: trade leading by a large margin seventy five. Nothing else
Speaker 4: comes close. Patterson, of course, got the Canucks the first
Speaker 4: round draft pick, That's why that is so high.
Speaker 1: And they had to give up a first round draft
Speaker 1: pick in order to get Marcus Patterson seventeen eighteen months ago.
Speaker 1: And today, after yesterday's activity, Canucks signed Matthew Steinberg from Colorado,
Speaker 1: twenty five year old center. He's from Halifax and also
Speaker 1: a Vechkin's back with the Capitals for another year. What
Speaker 1: do you got overseas?
Speaker 14: Right, let's go to Vernon. First of all, we got
Speaker 14: that one first. This is this is I believe it
Speaker 14: is one second. Here it's Leon and Vernon. Three generations
Speaker 14: of his family gathered around the Great Cup last weekend
Speaker 14: in Colonna. I gotta say, we've gotten so many photos
