00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:31.839
Welcome to another episode of Flames Unfilter, hosted by myself,
2
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:37.640
Brad Brute and Kyle Lewis. Kyle, this is uh the quiet, quiet,
3
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:41.719
quiet time of the NHL season. I guess some things
4
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:45.000
will heat up soon, I hope. But uh, the reason
5
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.679
we're here this is uh, this is a special episode
6
00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:51.880
here today. It's uh, it's three hundred times doing this.
7
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:54.960
Three hundred for you. I don't know my actual account,
8
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:56.320
but that's still I do.
9
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:59.240
Do you want to know what it is? It's a
10
00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:04.799
hundred and sixty six regular episodes three where you guested.
11
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:08.040
I guess that three times. I thought it was only two.
12
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:09.799
You guested three times?
13
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:11.319
Should give me quit the audition?
14
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:16.840
Holy Frank, Well, I think the third time you came on,
15
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.079
we had already discussed you coming on as a regular,
16
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:24.640
but we were just waiting to start the new season
17
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:24.920
with you.
18
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:27.920
Yeah. Yeah, it feels so long ago and I can't remember. Yeah,
19
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:29.519
three hundred minutes wild.
20
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:31.599
And last night I listened to the first time you
21
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:35.200
guessed it on the show, God, and you know what
22
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:38.519
it was? It was right, It was like, I can
23
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.480
give you the date. It was March second of twenty
24
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.239
twenty two, and we were taught.
25
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:48.879
Yeah, three years after, I was at the Dromeaginler retirement
26
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:50.159
game Go Figure.
27
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.640
And then we were talking the topic that day. We
28
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.120
were talking about how things were going to progress as
29
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:58.799
the Flames moved into the playoffs, and we kind of
30
00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:00.719
had thought that, look like we were going to get
31
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:02.439
Vegas in the first round, which we ended up getting
32
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:06.519
Dallas in the first round. Serious, those are some exciting
33
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:09.240
damn times and a good time to have you on
34
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:11.479
for the first time. And then you guested two more
35
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:15.120
times after that and then came on full time. First episode.
36
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.400
We announced you on September seventh, twenty twenty two, and
37
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.280
your first episode as a regular host on the show
38
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:25.240
was September twenty second, episode number one hundred and thirty four.
39
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.360
And we're at three hundred down. That's a lot of
40
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:29.240
Flames talk.
41
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:33.919
That's a ton. Yeah, it's man. I remember like when
42
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:35.800
you were texting me, like here's the equipment you need
43
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:37.719
to buy, and you know, because I kN know nothing
44
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:39.280
about any of this stuff, right, I just run my
45
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.520
mouth all the time, which is that part hasn't changed.
46
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.840
So Yeah, pretty cool, glad to be here.
47
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.280
It's a good run. I we've I think we are
48
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.560
the long one of the I shouldn't say we're the
49
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.520
longest running Flames podcast. I think we're close. If we're not,
50
00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:59.879
I think we are the longest current running regular weekly show.
51
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:02.400
I think.
52
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:05.719
I could see that. I mean, we're up there. Anyway,
53
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.159
I would just wild to think about let's uh, let's
54
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.439
let's and you know, and this is kind of like
55
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.360
a like an episode of Seinfeld. It's a it's an
56
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:13.680
episode about nothing right.
57
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:16.240
Because there's not a lot to talk about. We're still
58
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:17.479
going to talk Flames, like, you know, We've got a
59
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:17.879
lot of things.
60
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.199
Oh yeah, Well I'm gonna blow through a couple of things.
61
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.719
First of all, I'm wearing my Kevin Owens my Kyohodie
62
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:25.400
because Kevin Owens made his return to w after a
63
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.080
devastating injury after a year and a half away on
64
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:30.560
the weekend. So that was cool. So I'm super excited
65
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:33.000
about that might actually get me watching wrestling again. But
66
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.800
what I wanted to share with you, because I always
67
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:37.520
point this out, this is actually incredible. I'm gonna grab
68
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:38.759
my Flames calendar.
69
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:42.280
Here we do hear frequently.
70
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:51.680
Okay, so the August player is Mackenzie Wieger. Okay, September
71
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:53.759
players Connor Zari, who may or may not be there
72
00:03:53.800 --> 00:04:01.479
come September. The October player is Rasmus Anderson. There the
73
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:07.759
November players Nazem Kadri, and then December. But if you
74
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:09.960
go through, if you look at the calendar, because and
75
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.879
there's always a few changes, but in this case, we
76
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:19.439
have one, two, three, four out of twelve players are
77
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:20.079
no longer with the.
78
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.160
Team, so I doubt that'll be the case next year.
79
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:26.959
But are they going to be able to find twelve
80
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:29.199
players to put in the calendar next year?
81
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:33.480
Ooh the Actually this could be fun. So Dustin Wolf obvious, Okay,
82
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:39.240
so let's do this, Yeah, Dustin Wolf, Michael Backland, yeah, uh,
83
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:43.000
Zane Perrek will probably be probably enough to be on there, okay,
84
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:49.959
Kevin Mall, Matthew Coronado, Jonathan Hubert out just because, oh yeah,
85
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.279
I'm only at six. It's actually really it's really hard.
86
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.920
Well let's let's just let's let's still sharing govich AND's
87
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:56.959
area in there, just because.
88
00:04:57.279 --> 00:04:59.439
Okay, So that gives us eight Matthew grid And nine,
89
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.879
Zach white Cloud, ten, Kevin Ball, eleven you said Ball?
90
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:11.000
Oh did I? Okay, So let's go Devin COOLi eleven. Uh,
91
00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:13.519
that's kind of a you know, it could be something,
92
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:16.839
it could be simplic off. You can't put simple if
93
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:20.000
we don't even probably probably Fairban Frost.
94
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.800
Probably Frost, They'll probably be yeah.
95
00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:26.079
Yeah, it's just you know, like because the thing like
96
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:27.720
things coming on, like right now, the Toronto Blue Jays
97
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:31.279
are being completely dismantled, right they traded Jeff Hoffman, Dalton Varsho,
98
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:36.639
Kevin Gosman. Like, but after a few weeks, you don't
99
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:38.519
forget about those players. You kind of move on from it.
100
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.360
When you actually have a chronicle of a year's worth
101
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:43.759
of players, you're like, man, there's always one or two
102
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:47.839
that are gone. But like the turnovers crazy, It's absolutely wild.
103
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:53.839
It's mind blowing to me how quick we forget or
104
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:59.000
not worry about people that we've traded. Like like two
105
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:03.000
games after us Miss Anderson was traded, nobody said a word.
106
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:05.519
No, we didn't real talk about again until we said
107
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:06.920
at the end of the year that Zack white Cloud
108
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:10.160
was much better as the flame the Rasmus Anderson was yeah,
109
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:15.319
and then Anderson got ridiculous money, so nobody's upset about it.
110
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:18.439
Isn't that funny? It's funny how quick we forget, you know,
111
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:22.759
speaking of like going back and remembering three hundred episodes, Like,
112
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:27.839
this show has been through some some stuff like high
113
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:31.680
point probably the Dallas playoff run and then lost to Edmonton.
114
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.480
But that run was probably the highlight of the show.
115
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:37.920
And I went to Edmonton. I went to Calgary rather
116
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:42.800
for a game what was it, game two with Jim
117
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:45.720
goodrou for the Yeah, game two between Edmonton and Calgary.
118
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:48.920
You know, we had Another highlight was like the emergence
119
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.560
of Dustin Wolfe was kind of a highlight while doing
120
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.839
this show. And the announcement of the new arena. Some
121
00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:57.079
of the low lights that I remember over the years,
122
00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:04.480
the Kachuck trade, the COVID shutdown, the passing of Johnny Goudrol.
123
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:06.959
I mean, there's been a lot of things that we've
124
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.079
goods and bads that we've talked about on this and
125
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:13.040
hashed over. And I'll tell you what, Kyle, I've had
126
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:14.199
a hell of a good time doing it.
127
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.040
Yeah, It's it's weird how quickly the time goes. But
128
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:19.959
I mean, and it's funny. Episodes like this one of
129
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:21.759
the ones where we prepare the least always the funnest
130
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:25.120
ones and usually have the best reception I find because
131
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:26.959
usually one of us I get rambling about something and
132
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.920
but yeah, it's those highs and lows. It's it's life
133
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:31.240
and it's also sports, right.
134
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:33.439
So yeah, yeah, yeah, you're totally right.
135
00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:35.439
I think we're actually on a high right now because
136
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.120
the team's doing what it should be doing, even if
137
00:07:37.120 --> 00:07:39.160
it means some low points rough at the season getting
138
00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:41.600
dummied by significantly better teams, as I expect we will.
139
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.759
But I kind of hope this year, like last year was.
140
00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:47.959
Last year was a weird year to be a Flames fan.
141
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:50.560
You kind of had to learn how to watch games
142
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:54.000
differently because I was never a person that wanted to
143
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.160
cheer for losses. But like I was fine with losses
144
00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.279
last year, I don't like being a fan that way.
145
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.759
Like I really hope this year that like we're cheering
146
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:05.920
for wins, even though I think we're probably a year
147
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:09.959
away from that at least, if not two. I don't know.
148
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:12.839
It'll be interesting to see how the fan base handles year.
149
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.519
Would you say year three of the rebuilt or year two?
150
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:21.959
I'd say year two? Really, I mean, they were so
151
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:23.600
close to the playoffs a year prior to look they
152
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.199
properly embraced it, which is then reflected and you know
153
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:29.120
the rebig old comment from Don Maloney, which.
154
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:31.160
Was probably another low point that we've talked about on
155
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:31.600
the show.
156
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:33.480
Fuck, I think that was a high point.
157
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:37.639
In my head, might be right, Yeah.
158
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:42.360
Yeah, well, actually, speaking of higher points, I mean, I'm
159
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.799
sure you'd been paying some attention to the performances of
160
00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:48.960
all the Flames prospects over the summer showcase, and yeah,
161
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:51.840
pretty pretty I mean the names that have been jumping out.
162
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:54.720
Carson Carrol's had a little bit of a rough outing,
163
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:55.480
but still.
164
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:00.960
Yeah, rough outing. Cole Reshne, though was been spoken very
165
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:04.279
highly of, is probably the best player on on Canada.
166
00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:09.320
Yeah, Wittenbach. Same thing with great brave reviews apart from
167
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:14.320
one agreed to giveaway. But everything is kind of it's
168
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:15.799
not an exciting time of year, but it's like you
169
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:17.679
just gonna get the anecdotices. You're not watching a lot
170
00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:19.759
of games, per say, you're just looking at highlight clips.
171
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.360
But yeah, like everything is kind of going the way
172
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:26.720
that we hoped it would with our prospects. And then
173
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.159
somebody commented today too. I think it was Mike Gold
174
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.000
was saying he's like something about predicting a Sam Honsack
175
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:34.759
breakout year. I'm like, oh, that's kind of exciting. And
176
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:38.039
you actually mentioned Honsic on our last show a big year,
177
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:39.320
So I am.
178
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.919
I have got Honsick and Sharon Gold, which was my
179
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:44.159
my bones back guys, And and Honsick really isn't a
180
00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:46.399
bounce back because he's coming back from an injury, but
181
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.759
I'm still a bounce back. And in sense of that,
182
00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:53.080
I guess, uh, I don't know. It's it's gonna be
183
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.879
It's gonna be an interesting year, but.
184
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:58.519
There's just so many potential stories it's hard to you know,
185
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:00.639
really hard to narrow down like who slots where, Like
186
00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:02.720
you know, Robert Munich had tweeted what he'd like to
187
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:05.559
see for lines, and I generally agreed with him. I
188
00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:07.759
think I've already mentioned, you know, my excitement over the
189
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.080
prospect of a gridd and Frost cornetto line for a season.
190
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:15.679
But there's no clear cut storylines. There's you know, his
191
00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:17.799
lineup didn't include hundred per stavement at this point, and
192
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.960
we both thought was utterly fantastic. You know, in the
193
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:22.919
second half of the year for Calgary when you get recalled.
194
00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:26.759
I don't know, it's just it's gonna camp. It's gonna
195
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:30.679
be really interesting, and what happens the Connor's area is
196
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.600
gonna be interesting, and yeah, it's gonna be a really
197
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:34.080
weird fall.
198
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.600
What are you most excited to see playout?
199
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:38.679
Full? Yer Griddin.
200
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.159
Yeah, yeah, that's that's that's fair.
201
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:44.279
That's fair, especially after his exit interview where he's like,
202
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:46.600
I'm gonna lead the team in scoring, Like, okay.
203
00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:49.480
He's got to be our most exciting player.
204
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:53.399
Yeah, he's just had such a lethal, lethal shot and
205
00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.639
great offensive awareness. I mean reads the ice extremely well.
206
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:00.679
Like his point per game when he have twenty and
207
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.679
thirty four. I think like it was very very promising
208
00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:06.480
for a guy who's in the Quebec Ley the year prior. Yeah,
209
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:10.759
it's a jump man, that's a huge jump, so that's
210
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:14.000
super exciting. But you still get like, I don't know
211
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:16.720
if it's like the PTSD from years of not properly rebuilding.
212
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:20.320
But I'm sure you saw this. There's all these rumors
213
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:23.039
on on Twitter and elsewhere, and I'll always call it Twitter,
214
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:27.679
of course, but going on about the flames, apparently it'sterested
215
00:11:27.720 --> 00:11:30.039
in Arbury Yachai Jack excuse me.
216
00:11:29.960 --> 00:11:32.879
For oh I've heard that. Yeah, boy, would that be
217
00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:34.600
a ginormous mistake.
218
00:11:34.799 --> 00:11:36.799
Well, both teams have a glood of defenseman and I
219
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:41.039
don't understand whatsoever how that could possibly make any sense.
220
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:44.480
Where would he even he wouldn't even make the top six.
221
00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:47.440
Well, he can't make the top six Montreal most nights either,
222
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:50.320
which is you know, some habs fans are blaming Mardy
223
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:52.200
Stanley for that feeling he should be in the lineup.
224
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:55.480
But whatever the case, like, is this just Canadian banter
225
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:58.960
hockey talk rumor mill stuff. Though that's why I read it.
226
00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:01.039
That's completely the way I look at this because I.
227
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.320
You know what, like in some cases, I just wonder
228
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:05.399
if it's like somebody who's friends with like a low
229
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.679
level executive and an NHL team will like comment. But like,
230
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:10.720
for example, I you know, I told my buddy Danny
231
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:12.279
that looks at Blue Jackets one time. But this is
232
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:16.600
a few years ago I had I was in his
233
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.200
pool actually, and I said, you know, it'd be it'd
234
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:23.440
be cool if the Flames traded Sam Bennett to the
235
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:26.039
Blue Jackets for Josh Anderson because at the time they're
236
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:30.000
both like struggling young and he was He was like, actually,
237
00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:32.039
it's like at Heim, It's like I really like that idea,
238
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:33.360
Like I think it'd be good for both players and
239
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:35.440
both teams. So does that all of a sudden if
240
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:37.519
I had shared that with somebody else, does that all
241
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.600
of a sudden become a rumor because somebody in NHL
242
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:41.120
thought it was an okay idea?
243
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.600
Yeah? I mean that's how it is, because.
244
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:45.679
Otherwise, it's like if I was to run into Craig
245
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:48.200
Conroy at a coffee shop, like, dude, is there any
246
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:50.000
true to this? Like what are you doing now? Nothing
247
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:52.720
against Arba Jack Eye, Like he's a great player, very physical,
248
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:57.320
like fancy, but it just makes no sense. No, like
249
00:12:57.440 --> 00:13:00.600
makes zero sense. I mean he's a five sand and
250
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:04.399
any decent team and a good character player by all accounts.
251
00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:08.200
But we just got that in Jake Middleton, Like what why? Why?
252
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:13.000
I think Jake Middleton's going to be an interesting watch
253
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:13.480
this year.
254
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.159
He's going to be a fan favorite very quickly. I
255
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.559
mean for his interviews alone, much like Devin Cooley. But
256
00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:21.759
I think he's going to add a lot of character
257
00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:24.200
to addressed and traded a lot of characters last year.
258
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:29.759
So yeah, But I mean, he's the key in this case,
259
00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:31.360
is that? And this is what I'm worried about, is
260
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:33.679
that Ryan Huska doesn't play him over his head because
261
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:37.360
he's reluctant to deploy younger defenseman. Right, he did show
262
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:39.320
a lot of faith cuz nets Off and that paid
263
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:41.759
off handsomely, so hopefully he continues with that mindset.
264
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:46.879
But why why do you think that he put faith
265
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:49.240
in kuznets Off so much more than some of the
266
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:50.639
younger other younger.
267
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:53.559
Players, because he's just not nearly a flashy.
268
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:55.960
So he's safe.
269
00:13:57.320 --> 00:13:59.720
Yeah, and which is interesting because he still showed some
270
00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:01.519
pretty good offensive instincts at times.
271
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.519
But I really liked him last year. I think I
272
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:06.360
don't know, I mean, I know we've talked about this
273
00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:08.399
and I can't remember probably why I even said, but
274
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:11.440
he's got to be in the top three most pleasant
275
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:12.840
surprises from last year.
276
00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:16.759
Right, absolutely, And for whatever reason, because again, because we're
277
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:18.039
going off the cuff, and this is the three end
278
00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:20.360
of the episode, I just got a random idea for
279
00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:23.840
a stupid little game We're gonna play good and it
280
00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:26.000
relates to the fact that Yanku's net software is number
281
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.600
thirty seven So when I thought number thirty seven, I
282
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:29.919
thought a Dean Mcammon.
283
00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:31.240
Right, I thought Trevor kidd.
284
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:34.000
Okay, this is my point. So I'm gonna throw it
285
00:14:34.039 --> 00:14:38.080
a number. Let's do five each, all right, So I'll
286
00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:39.679
throw a number. You throw a number, A weech respond
287
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:41.039
with the player that makes it, think of So I'm
288
00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:44.159
gonna throw a number at you, and obviously we're gonna
289
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:51.320
avoid the twelves, the nines, the thirty fours, like, and
290
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:53.240
it doesn't have to be a star, just whoever you
291
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:54.879
just instantly comes into your head. And I just had
292
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:58.360
a really stupid one. But anyway, let's go with number six.
293
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:04.080
Oman, No, who's four? Who's James Patrick?
294
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:07.200
James Patrick. I was gonna go Cory Sarritch and then
295
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:14.200
I thought of Bob Boogener. There you go, eight Valve
296
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:20.039
Peter Busick.
297
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:23.679
It's a tough one because, like, I don't even know
298
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:25.679
who I think you came up with Brewery right away.
299
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:29.000
This a Flames number that just seems lost, like no
300
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:30.720
one's ever played in it.
301
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:32.519
Really well, we'll give you a hint. I just played
302
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:40.440
with the guy. Oh it war eight Brendan Morrison. He
303
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:42.120
did uh?
304
00:15:42.159 --> 00:15:43.919
I thought, Brandon Morrison was seven.
305
00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:47.000
He was seven like everywhere else, but he wore bred.
306
00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:51.120
Morrison wore eight with with Calgary. Oh andres Ericson.
307
00:15:53.039 --> 00:16:00.279
He wore eight. You're more of a number geek me.
308
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:03.279
But yeah, but even then, it's just it's a matter
309
00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:06.960
of who you think of. Right. So now I say
310
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:12.279
I've already lost. Uh, I think it's my turn, So
311
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:18.600
let's go hm hm oh man, there's so many I
312
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:23.120
can't even pick one. Uh where you going?
313
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:25.279
I keep picking ones in my head that turn out
314
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:29.200
to be super obvious. I was gonna say, I was
315
00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:32.600
gonna say fifty two, and then it's like, okay, we
316
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:33.519
just wore That.
317
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:37.039
Made me think of fifty three Derek Morris or Buddy Robinson.
318
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:38.759
Buddy Robinson.
319
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:42.440
Yeah, uh fifty.
320
00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:47.240
Five, Well that's to me, that's Rob Ramage.
321
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:49.879
Yeah that makes sense Shad O'Brien.
322
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:52.639
But but somebody else just wore fifty five not too
323
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:55.120
long ago, and I'm drawing a blank right.
324
00:16:55.000 --> 00:17:01.080
Now, noah, headphan, how quickly we forget right? Well that
325
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:03.840
kind of proves the point. Yeah. Actually, altogether, a is
326
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:05.079
a guy that got traded not too.
327
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:07.640
Long He is Middleton, not weren fifty five? This year.
328
00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:13.599
Yeah he is, yeah, okay, oh man, this is just
329
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:17.400
so ridiculous. My buddy Brian Palmer would love this episode
330
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:19.359
because he just like, we play this game with each
331
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.680
other somes like we just like textures saying number to
332
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:27.880
each other and just pick a random player. Is sure,
333
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:30.359
go ahead. I ready to give up to the five
334
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:31.319
because I'd lost count.
335
00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:34.559
But well, I mean, who is the first person you
336
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:35.799
think of with thirty one?
337
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:43.640
For me, Curtis Joseph, For you, probably Rick Taberacci, maybe hey, yeah,
338
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:45.599
a little shout out for Johnny Stope.
339
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:50.279
Oh I like Tabaraci. You know what pissed me off? Though?
340
00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:53.160
Every time I would go there when I was a kid.
341
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:55.440
I didn't younger, I guess, and I don't really know
342
00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:57.839
too much, but you know, you know you don't. You
343
00:17:57.880 --> 00:17:59.200
don't live in Calgary. You don't get to see the
344
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:02.440
Flames a ton live, right. Every time i'd go see
345
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:07.319
the Flames as a kid, like the starting goalie would
346
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:10.200
never play. And I remember one time I was super
347
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:11.920
excited I was going up to Winnipeg. I wanted to
348
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:15.759
see Trevor Kidd play, and I freaking got Rick Taberaci
349
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:17.759
and I'm like, oh my god.
350
00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:19.720
Did you meet him years later? Wasn't he floring rep?
351
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:22.119
I did? I met him years later? I had a
352
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.240
meeting with Bedrojian Tile at Surfaces in Vegas. The name
353
00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:30.640
says Rick. There's no way. I walk up and I'm like,
354
00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:36.519
he introduces himself and I'm like, I know who you are.
355
00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:41.839
He started chuckling and he goes, you know, you're the
356
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:45.920
first person today that said anything about hockey to me.
357
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.440
And we had an hour long meeting. We talked hockey
358
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:50.799
the entire time. But good guy, good, good guy.
359
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.039
Yeah.
360
00:18:54.480 --> 00:18:54.720
Yeah.
361
00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.000
When you mentioned Trevor Kidd, I actually collided with him
362
00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:58.799
that playing defense.
363
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:00.599
Oh really yeah.
364
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:03.200
It wasn't a big collision. But he's super nice guy,
365
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:05.640
super super nice guy.
366
00:19:05.799 --> 00:19:09.400
So I got a number for you. Sixty six, Well
367
00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:10.720
TJ Brody in preseason?
368
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:14.480
Yeah, who the hell else wore that? Nobody did they?
369
00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:19.480
I don't know, I don't think so I'm quite confident
370
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:21.880
that nobody did. Mariy Lynmin was never a flame unfortunately.
371
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:28.240
So sixty eight, however, was a flame.
372
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:31.400
Sixty eight? Who is that?
373
00:19:31.880 --> 00:19:32.279
Yuger?
374
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:36.599
Oh yeah? Good Berland War seventy nine?
375
00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:38.519
Right, and you did have a long day, Holy.
376
00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:40.160
Shit, I had a really rough day to.
377
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:44.240
Day, all right? Sixty seven Michael fur Leak.
378
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:47.160
Yeah, I liked for a leak. I had high hopes
379
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:47.759
for that guy.
380
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:51.119
He was a great flame, you think so dah. He
381
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:53.680
kind of got misused and peter off towards the end.
382
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:55.759
I think he got a raw deal. He he wind
383
00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:57.799
up Buffalo after that he.
384
00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:00.400
Was so underrat I mean he under it chive the
385
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:03.839
second year in Calgary really bad. I thought, doesn't everybody,
386
00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:09.279
come on, are we out of that right now? Or
387
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:11.839
do we are we past the underachievers?
388
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:14.240
Or yeah, we already did that episode, didn't we?
389
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:16.720
Yeah, we've done that already.
390
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:22.160
Yeah, what's sipplicof gonna wear seventy two? I think that's
391
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:22.839
a weird number.
392
00:20:24.279 --> 00:20:25.759
Yeah, he's wearing seventy two?
393
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:30.160
Uh oh fifty one?
394
00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:34.920
Woo fifty one?
395
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:40.640
I got one? You ready for this yourself?
396
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:44.200
Who wore fifty one? I'm I'm I'm I'm really gonna
397
00:20:44.200 --> 00:20:45.519
be good here at this game in a minute, because
398
00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:47.319
I just pulled up the website that lists all these
399
00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:49.440
five people of war fifty one.
400
00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:51.160
The one I'm thinking of, Roman Horrack.
401
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:54.519
Yeah, they've got you and Ward too.
402
00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:59.039
Oh weird? Okay, Well, Now that we've talk about Roman Horack,
403
00:20:59.039 --> 00:20:59.480
I think we're done.
404
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:01.200
No, you know who else?
405
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:01.440
State?
406
00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:05.000
You know? All Swart recently Troy Stetcher.
407
00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:09.240
Oh yeah, he was good. I liked him.
408
00:21:09.480 --> 00:21:10.200
Yeah I did too.
409
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:11.799
He's the one that when you get traded out of
410
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:13.920
Toronto and Edmonds and he bitched a moment about how
411
00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:15.960
toxic Toronto was was hilarious.
412
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:19.000
Yeah. No, he bitched about how toxic.
413
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:20.400
Edmund No, yeah, sorry, wrong way.
414
00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:23.480
He's back in Toronto, I believe.
415
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:26.440
Yeah he see. I don't like either one of those
416
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:28.359
fan bases, so you can see why I got them confused.
417
00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:33.839
But yeah, hey, speaking of stupid, crazy, pissed off things me. No, no,
418
00:21:35.279 --> 00:21:37.160
well sometimes we get mad at each other. You get
419
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:43.279
mad at me. If I say Coronado can't score.
420
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:42.960
It's supposed to be a celibratory episode, I'll screw it
421
00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:44.000
up with your negativity.
422
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:46.519
So here's negativity.
423
00:21:47.720 --> 00:21:50.839
He'll ask you for negativity.
424
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:54.039
You didn't cause this, So it's negativity, but not about
425
00:21:54.119 --> 00:21:58.240
not because of you. But what's going on in Calgary?
426
00:21:58.240 --> 00:22:01.559
First we lose the fan nine sixty. Now they're now
427
00:22:01.559 --> 00:22:04.680
and seeing that Cowboys is closing?
428
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:07.039
What yes.
429
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:13.480
Said a Here I'll read Eric Francis's post sad news
430
00:22:13.480 --> 00:22:16.720
this Calgary institution closed its stores after thirty years. To day,
431
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:19.960
Cowboys Dance Hall on Stampede Grounds is no longer The
432
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.680
iconic brand will instead focus on its efforts of the
433
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:26.720
Stampede Music festival and evolve evolving Cowboys Park, where the
434
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.599
nation's biggest best party is held every Stampede. Don't worry,
435
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:34.319
We're not losing the fifteen thousand seat Person ten and
436
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:38.920
the new epicenter Stampede for many. But to ball Dave Scarlett,
437
00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:41.920
the crew gave Calgary one of our.
438
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.640
Country's most dance That's the dance all.
439
00:22:45.079 --> 00:22:47.559
Okay, But that's where the pizza pigot was, right.
440
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:55.839
Yeah, Well I don't know. I mean the casino's okay, okay,
441
00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.240
which means Hitman's Bar is okay, okay. I'd be lost
442
00:22:59.240 --> 00:22:59.920
without that place.
443
00:23:00.079 --> 00:23:03.279
So it's not that part of it's not closing. No, No.
444
00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:05.519
I was like, man, they're going to burn the city down.
445
00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:08.200
So what's going on? What starts closing? Just the Stampede
446
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:08.880
grounds one.
447
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:10.759
Just just no, just the dance all inside of it.
448
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:14.440
I don't know. There wasn't a lot of four memories
449
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:15.359
made at the dance.
450
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:18.839
Hall, probably.
451
00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:24.279
Right. Why is shift closing though? All over the place?
452
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:26.880
Oh man, I don't know. I don't know. The whole
453
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:29.519
world's burning, like literally and figuratively.
454
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:34.200
So I saw something else I wanted to run by
455
00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:38.039
here this week. It was a graphic that said, how
456
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:41.039
shocked would you be if your team won the stand
457
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:43.599
the Cup in the next five years?
458
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:45.359
You know.
459
00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:52.720
The listed is like not surprised, could happen? Neutral, miracle story,
460
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:54.039
and really amazed?
461
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:57.480
Where do you think, Kelly, wait, hang on, is really amazed?
462
00:23:57.519 --> 00:23:59.319
Considered more severe than a miracle?
463
00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:00.559
Yeah, that's that I thought.
464
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:03.039
So that's again that is that's like the episode of
465
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:05.519
the Office where they're like, you know, like you know
466
00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:09.440
ideally you would strongly agree, and was like completely agree
467
00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:10.160
and was confusing.
468
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:14.599
Anyway, I would say not surprised, could happen, neutral, amazed,
469
00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:18.440
and miracle. That's the way I would list them. Yeah, okay,
470
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:19.640
so where do we fall?
471
00:24:20.160 --> 00:24:24.839
It's a fucking miracle. That's not even not for debate.
472
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:26.640
It's all here.
473
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:29.359
The amount of catastrophic injuries would have to hit the
474
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:33.039
other thirty one rosters like World War three, maybe break
475
00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:34.920
out which got the biper pute, Not that far off,
476
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:38.119
but like it's the amount of things that would need
477
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:40.680
to happen for the Flames to even make the playoffs.
478
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:42.920
Let alone win a round, let alone win two rounds.
479
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:45.480
Let win the West Final, let alone win the Stanley Cup.
480
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:49.240
I listen, you were late getting on this show today
481
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:50.960
for whatever reasons. I know you had a long day.
482
00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:53.640
I was starting to fade because I'm two hours ahead
483
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:54.000
of you.
484
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:54.880
I got you good.
485
00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:58.440
It was starting to fade. And then you made this
486
00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:03.039
comment with their ridiculous parameters of miracle being third and
487
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:04.640
a fourth somehow, I don't know.
488
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:08.680
Well, let's do this so and you want to get
489
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:09.319
wound up some.
490
00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:12.279
More, No, I don't want to. First, just the negativity,
491
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:13.559
which I asked you not to do when you went
492
00:25:13.599 --> 00:25:14.240
down that road.
493
00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:20.079
So listen to this the not Surprised. Here are the
494
00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:22.640
four teams that made it into the not surprise category
495
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:26.519
that they could win the Stanley Cup the next five years. Edmonton, Colorado, Dallas,
496
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:34.359
and Tampa. Like okay, could happen? Was Vegas, Toronto, Buffalo,
497
00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:37.880
San Jose, Montreal, Carolina and Chicago.
498
00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:41.839
And they really think that Toronto, You know, retooling worked.
499
00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:44.720
Well, I will see. And then here's one that surprised
500
00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:46.559
me a little bit because I think this retool probably
501
00:25:46.599 --> 00:25:48.680
worked a hell of a lot better. But neutral they
502
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:51.440
have Florida. I think Florida probably has a good chance
503
00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:56.720
to win in the next five years. Washington, Philadelphia, New Jersey,
504
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:02.720
Saint Louis, Boston, and Minnesota. I don't see Boston or
505
00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:04.720
Saint Louis in the next five years.
506
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:08.200
But Boston has navigated some roster turnover extremely well.
507
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:12.680
Yeah, but they got a couple yeah, okay, all right,
508
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:18.039
all right, and then so amazed Amazed category would be Winnipeg, Seattle,
509
00:26:18.079 --> 00:26:24.000
I would be miracle in Seattle, Pittsburgh, Ottawa, Detroit, Islanders,
510
00:26:24.039 --> 00:26:30.400
and Anaheim. And then miracles is Nashville, Vancouver, Calgary, New
511
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:34.160
York Rangers, Columbus. I got freaking Seattle on here twice.
512
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:34.839
That tells you, how.
513
00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:37.119
Wait didn't you just say miracles was the prior category.
514
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:41.720
I switched him, dude, Oh okay, all right, I understand.
515
00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:46.839
And then LA I think I think I think Calgary
516
00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:50.240
and Vancouver fit the miracle pretty clearly. I think Seattle
517
00:26:50.279 --> 00:26:52.680
fits the miracle pretty clearly. Columbus I would say is
518
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:57.839
a miracle. I don't know, probably in Nashville, I would
519
00:26:57.880 --> 00:26:58.759
agree with probably do.
520
00:27:04.519 --> 00:27:06.640
Yeah. Yeah, Nashville's got a long ways to go. The
521
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:11.720
Rangers are kind of stuck right now. The Canucks are
522
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:19.119
tire fire, But I think I don't I can't see
523
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:21.039
any team being more surprising than the Flames.
524
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:25.319
Oh, I don't think we're the worst. Seattle would surprise
525
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:26.240
any more than the Flames.
526
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:29.640
I just think it's because we've committed to this rebuild path.
527
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:32.359
I just at least we know what direction we're going.
528
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:34.559
I don't feel like Seattle knows at all what they're doing.
529
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:36.559
I don't feel Nashville knows at all what they're doing.
530
00:27:36.799 --> 00:27:39.839
I'm not sure Columbus, because of so many players changing hands,
531
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:43.240
that they know really what they're doing. I mean, I
532
00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:45.440
think there's a lot of teams that are really directional
533
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.680
lists directionless. But I think the Flames, as bad as
534
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:51.720
low as we're at right now, at least there's a direction,
535
00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:53.920
right Yeah.
536
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:55.960
I mean it sucks for Columbus. And when they signed
537
00:27:56.119 --> 00:27:58.359
Johnny Hockey, I mean they were really on the upswing
538
00:27:58.359 --> 00:27:59.720
and then they brought in on a hand and.
539
00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:03.599
Mm hmm, you know, things completely out of their control happened.
540
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:06.240
Well, exactly, and then you got the Wernsky situation, which
541
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:08.599
at least for now is resolved, and now Marchenko is
542
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:12.319
there are different things on him and where they stand,
543
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:14.720
like I don't know, Like it's at the end of
544
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:17.920
the day, Like it's taken us soon to get to
545
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:21.559
the rebuild point and we're just at the beginning of it.
546
00:28:21.559 --> 00:28:23.480
It would be an absolute miracle. I still can't believe
547
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:25.799
miracle was not the most severe category. That makes no sense.
548
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:29.759
I maybe a lot of this ship's clickbait though, too
549
00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:30.359
right it.
550
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:34.359
Is, that's totally clickbait. I saw put together by They
551
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:36.759
had Seattle on there twice. I mean, I'm just saying
552
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:39.480
though that the thought, you know, is interesting to think
553
00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:41.960
about though, because he really would be a miracle for
554
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:43.440
Calgary to win the stand the Cup in the next
555
00:28:43.440 --> 00:28:44.000
five years.
556
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:48.400
Absolutely. Actually, it's funny you say, maybe think of something else,
557
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:54.160
as everything you say typically does. I noticed on a
558
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:56.519
calendar as a markan, I have a like a whiteboard
559
00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:01.599
calendar that I marked the calendar king sure, and I'm
560
00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:03.839
marking on the calendar vacations. Even though it's all in
561
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:06.880
adminstrative software, I still like to have a big whiteboard
562
00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:09.599
that the wholesale staff can see. And I noticed in
563
00:29:09.640 --> 00:29:14.119
September it goes Monday the fourteenth. When I go to Toronto,
564
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:17.359
I think Tuesday the sixteenth, but it's not sixteenth, it's fifteenth, right.
565
00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:21.799
The calendar goes fourteen, sixteen, sixteen. Really at this that
566
00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:25.599
this company is shipped out to customers all over North America.
567
00:29:25.200 --> 00:29:27.079
They missed printed a date on the calendar.
568
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:29.079
Yeah, they put the sixteenth twice. So I texted my
569
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.119
rap I said, can we have a more accurate calendar
570
00:29:31.160 --> 00:29:33.440
next year? And he said it's going to be a
571
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:36.720
long day.
572
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:42.319
Well, oh jeez, oh my god. You know I often
573
00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:46.480
think of goofy things, right, And you know, we were
574
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:51.039
talking last week about eighty four games, right, and how
575
00:29:51.079 --> 00:29:55.480
that changes things and are we having asterisk and what what?
576
00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:58.720
What's you know, what's the backlashing statistics? And and even
577
00:29:58.839 --> 00:30:01.279
like points to get into playoffs? Our all of our
578
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:05.079
comparisons are pretty much out the window now. So I
579
00:30:05.119 --> 00:30:07.240
was sitting here thinking, and I'm like, Okay, if we're
580
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:09.519
gonna have everything kind of go out the window and
581
00:30:09.559 --> 00:30:12.920
be all jumbled and messed up next year, wouldn't this
582
00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:16.519
year be the year to switch to a three point system.
583
00:30:17.599 --> 00:30:21.519
Oh god, oh.
584
00:30:21.920 --> 00:30:24.559
Okay, thanks everybody for joining three other episode, We appreciate you.
585
00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:31.440
Or do this? Do this two points for a win,
586
00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:35.079
one point for an overtime loss, and zero points for
587
00:30:35.119 --> 00:30:36.400
a regulation loss.
588
00:30:39.759 --> 00:30:42.680
Sure, fuck it, why not just do it?
589
00:30:42.680 --> 00:30:44.680
It's not fair how it is right now? It just
590
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:45.720
I don't know. I don't like.
591
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.119
Oh man, I remember, was it two years ago? We
592
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:50.079
had like seventeen loser points or something.
593
00:30:50.400 --> 00:30:51.640
I know, That's what I'm saying.
594
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:55.960
Like, it's you're getting a loser point many times by
595
00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:00.000
way of losing a skills competition. I know you.
596
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:04.079
We need to get rid of the shootout. Yeah, plain
597
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:07.559
and simple white jerseys at home and no shootout change le.
598
00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:10.440
Oh wow man, you were really just throwing stuff out there.
599
00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:15.200
Holy lord. So actually I said the same thing with
600
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:17.160
the shootout when I hit that crossbar dock ears thing,
601
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:19.279
I'm like, all right, get rid of the shootout. Yep,
602
00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:25.119
alas that did not? All right? So what else?
603
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:28.559
I don't know? I'm getting you want to know what
604
00:31:28.599 --> 00:31:30.839
you want to know? Something else that I saw and
605
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:32.920
I didn't verify it to see if it was true,
606
00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:35.480
but it looks true from what I can see. I
607
00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:38.039
saw a list of all thirty two teams tax rates
608
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:45.519
in their areas, and it's been thirteen years since a
609
00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:48.200
team in the top half of the tax rate has
610
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:54.000
won a Stanley Cup. That's my fun fact for the day.
611
00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:56.400
Is that a fun fact?
612
00:31:56.799 --> 00:31:58.400
I don't know if it's fun. It's not fun because
613
00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:00.160
Calgary is in the top tier of the tax.
614
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:04.039
Yeah, that's exactly fun, is it?
615
00:32:06.279 --> 00:32:06.839
Good? Lord?
616
00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:07.440
Wow?
617
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:09.240
Oh?
618
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:10.960
Why? Okay? Hang on, hold up? Hold up?
619
00:32:11.079 --> 00:32:13.119
Three hundred episodes and I'm missed the negative today. What
620
00:32:13.160 --> 00:32:13.640
the hell.
621
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:16.400
Something's ever changed?
622
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:18.839
I guess Hey, wait a minute. I've had to pull
623
00:32:18.920 --> 00:32:20.440
you off the cliff more than you've had to pull
624
00:32:20.519 --> 00:32:21.240
me off a cliff.
625
00:32:21.880 --> 00:32:24.559
I think it's a there's no good way to say that.
626
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:31.519
It doesn't matter. Probably, why do you want whites at home?
627
00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:34.720
You want to know my theory on that? Is?
628
00:32:35.359 --> 00:32:37.720
I know the prevailing theory. I want to know your theory.
629
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:41.920
If you're a season ticket holder in Calgary, every night
630
00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:45.160
when you go to the game, you see red versus
631
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:49.440
white every single night. If it went back to the
632
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:52.240
traditional way where they wore whites at home every night,
633
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:53.599
it's a new color in your building.
634
00:32:55.240 --> 00:33:00.200
See the idea League wide, because from nineteen seventy two,
635
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:02.319
I want to say, until two thousand and four, whites
636
00:33:02.319 --> 00:33:04.839
were at home. And the idea behind it, and it
637
00:33:04.880 --> 00:33:06.400
makes a lot more sense of what they do now
638
00:33:06.599 --> 00:33:09.319
is that you would get to see, you know, the
639
00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:12.279
truest jersey of every team.
640
00:33:12.799 --> 00:33:16.319
Yes. Plus they were easier to clean too at home,
641
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:18.960
harder to keep white ones nice and they're on the
642
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:25.680
road fair or you don't what. Let's compromise.
643
00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:28.240
I hope that you're watching everyone on YouTube seeing Brad's
644
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:29.240
facial expressions.
645
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:32.640
Let's compromise. First half of the year you were whites
646
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:34.640
at home. Second half of the year you were darks
647
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:36.960
at home. Problem solved.
648
00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:40.359
I never known you to be so neutral. You're typically
649
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:41.559
quite opinionated, and.
650
00:33:41.759 --> 00:33:45.599
Yeah, I don't like being neutral. Neutral suckstrol.
651
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:49.000
So Switzerland's right for Switzerland.
652
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:52.200
I guess that's the way to put it right.
653
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:57.559
Yeah, man, we killed a lot of time today.
654
00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:02.279
I know I got there. I don't know how, but
655
00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:04.559
I probably could come up with a few more things
656
00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:05.119
that bothered me.
657
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:13.559
And we're not talking about hockey anymore, folks. If we're
658
00:34:13.559 --> 00:34:15.280
gonna have a festivus, will be here for a week.
659
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:20.400
Yeah, jezus. If there's a lot of things that bother
660
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.519
me lately, it sounds like stand.
661
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:27.800
Up, okay, level, just just look at your list you
662
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:29.199
have written down there and just throwing.
663
00:34:29.039 --> 00:34:31.840
At me my list of what things that bothered me?
664
00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:33.559
Yes, the thing you're talking about.
665
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:36.679
I don't have a list in front of me. On it.
666
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:39.880
We convinced that you did.
667
00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:43.519
I don't have a list. Got I got a train
668
00:34:43.559 --> 00:34:45.519
wreck of a life some weeks. But I'll make lists
669
00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:52.920
of things that pissed me off. That would be I mean,
670
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:54.719
I've had a rough go the last day or two,
671
00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:56.159
but I don't know, I'm not that bad.
672
00:34:56.239 --> 00:35:00.159
Holy Kyle, Well, it sounds like you need events, So
673
00:35:00.239 --> 00:35:00.840
tell me what's.
674
00:35:01.559 --> 00:35:03.639
This has helped me? Because you know, today was one
675
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:05.559
of those days. I was like wheeling along. It was
676
00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:08.199
a great day. Three o'clock hitting the train rail. I mean,
677
00:35:08.199 --> 00:35:10.719
it is like a train wreck, and I don't know
678
00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:13.760
this show some goofy way kind of got me back
679
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:17.199
on the rails. And I don't know this show does
680
00:35:17.239 --> 00:35:19.440
that for me sometimes. You know, I don't know how
681
00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:21.559
many times I've been ready to whip the remote to
682
00:35:21.599 --> 00:35:23.400
the TV at this team and then we get on
683
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.880
here and we talk about it, and I feel a
684
00:35:24.880 --> 00:35:27.880
little bit better about it, usually because I got to
685
00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:33.880
talk you off the legend. And no, I think I
686
00:35:33.920 --> 00:35:36.880
think we've both I'm serious, and we've done what when
687
00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:40.159
I say, one hundred and sixty six episodes together or something.
688
00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:42.800
I think we both have went through phases during the
689
00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:47.840
time where we've had to help each other through various
690
00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:51.559
attitudes about this team. And I think that's what fans do, right,
691
00:35:53.119 --> 00:35:54.679
what friends do when friends too.
692
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:57.239
I mean, that's also what trauma bonding does. And I
693
00:35:57.360 --> 00:35:59.199
was watching this team. We've done some trauma bonding.
694
00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:02.840
I just I hope you know this team won a
695
00:36:02.880 --> 00:36:05.800
Stanley Cup when I was a sophomore in high school.
696
00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:10.000
And you know, you're so stupid and so naive that
697
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:13.199
I thought this was going to happen a lot. And
698
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.480
now I'm fifty three years old sitting in front of
699
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.800
a microphone trying to figure out, like, is this gonna
700
00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:20.840
happen before I die?
701
00:36:27.599 --> 00:36:31.559
I don't have an overly optimistic answer for that. I'm
702
00:36:31.599 --> 00:36:33.360
gonna go see your doctor, and we've tried to raise
703
00:36:33.400 --> 00:36:36.519
your chances. Maybe check see if they can do that.
704
00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:38.280
Whole Walt Disney rumor from the seventies.
705
00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:41.719
I don't know.
706
00:36:42.360 --> 00:36:44.239
Hey, but don't feel bad. I'll be dead too.
707
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:49.480
I just, I mean I've hit people. I literally have
708
00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:51.000
had people ask me and say, well, how long you
709
00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:53.039
been doing that podcast? And I say, we're coming up
710
00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:55.559
on three hundred And they say to me, well, what
711
00:36:55.599 --> 00:36:59.519
would happen if your team won the Stanley Cup? I said,
712
00:36:59.559 --> 00:36:59.960
I don't know.
713
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:03.280
Oh, I wouldn't fucking worry about is what I would
714
00:37:03.280 --> 00:37:03.679
have said.
715
00:37:03.960 --> 00:37:05.239
I don't know. I do a show.
716
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:08.639
I don't know what wouldn't just end? We'd have a
717
00:37:08.719 --> 00:37:10.559
drunken episode we get Oh, I just.
718
00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:13.039
I mean what They're like, what would you do? I'm like, well,
719
00:37:13.239 --> 00:37:14.119
I don't know what i'd do.
720
00:37:14.280 --> 00:37:16.800
Like they're like, we do a lot of stream to
721
00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:17.840
get drunk. That's what we would do.
722
00:37:18.280 --> 00:37:19.800
They said to me like, well, would you go to
723
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:22.159
the bar and it's be wild and crazy. I'm like,
724
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:24.320
nobody in my town and know what I'm being wild
725
00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:25.119
and crazy about.
726
00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:26.960
I'll bring you up to the Great Way North. We'll
727
00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:27.599
show you a good time.
728
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:29.880
I mean, I'd have to drive about forty five minutes
729
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:32.039
north of me, and I mean not that's saying that
730
00:37:32.199 --> 00:37:34.079
a lot of people and where I live, don't watch
731
00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:36.000
the Stanley Cup finals. They know what I'm cheering for.
732
00:37:36.039 --> 00:37:37.719
They'd be like, why are you a Flames fan? That's
733
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:40.679
what they would say. But everybody in this town already
734
00:37:40.679 --> 00:37:41.639
knows I'm a Flames fan.
735
00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:43.760
So that's the worst thing with living over to east
736
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:46.639
is trying to explain it to people. Oh, you're from Calgary. No,
737
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:47.639
I'm not from Calgary.
738
00:37:48.119 --> 00:37:49.360
You know what I would say to him, Look at
739
00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:52.039
your teams, wouldn't I be a Flames fan?
740
00:37:53.599 --> 00:37:57.400
Yeah? Everybody out here is Toronto, Montreal and Boston.
741
00:37:57.480 --> 00:38:03.199
But anyway, you had Quebec and you lost it Montreal.
742
00:38:03.400 --> 00:38:05.079
The only time you guys really won was and there
743
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:09.679
was six teams in the league in Toronto. Six I know,
744
00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:10.800
but I'm giving you.
745
00:38:11.159 --> 00:38:12.880
If you want to go down to Toronto Road that
746
00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:16.119
that's on anyway. Yeah, they should have let him ball
747
00:38:16.159 --> 00:38:18.039
silly drop a team in Hamilton. They might have won something.
748
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:20.639
So let me ask you this question. Why why when
749
00:38:20.639 --> 00:38:23.920
I was up in Montreal and uh in Toronto two
750
00:38:23.960 --> 00:38:25.639
and I'd sit in the bar and visit with people,
751
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:28.000
or go to the games and visit with people. How
752
00:38:28.039 --> 00:38:30.280
come there is a lot of Boston fans in Canada.
753
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:34.719
Why it's a maritime thing. There's actually is it a
754
00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:37.480
bobby or thing. It's very much a bobby or thing.
755
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:41.039
It's also a rebork thing. There's all. It's also a
756
00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:44.440
pretty well known fact that when the Hallifax explosion happened,
757
00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:50.360
it was nineteen twelve bought. The ports of Boston and
758
00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.400
Halifax were back and forth. The people from Boston up
759
00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:55.119
and helped a lot. There's a big relationship between those
760
00:38:55.159 --> 00:38:58.320
two cities, and Halifax is the biggest city in the
761
00:38:58.360 --> 00:39:02.000
East Coast Canada. So yeah, there's a lot of history
762
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:05.239
behind its maritime cities, maritime culture, that kind of thing.
763
00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:09.760
So yeah, the how comes Halifax doesn't have a sports
764
00:39:09.800 --> 00:39:12.159
team or a CFL team or anything.
765
00:39:12.199 --> 00:39:13.159
It's just not big enough.
766
00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:15.400
How big is it Halifax?
767
00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:20.159
The Halifax Rege municipality is probably abut three undousand people theirboats. Okay,
768
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:22.599
it's great, it's growing like crazy, and the cost of
769
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:24.960
living there is believe. I'm there all the time for work.
770
00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:28.320
I love that city, but yeah, I just can't support
771
00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:30.480
There's been talk of a CFL team there at some point.
772
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:33.480
It'd be great. And then for hockey, they have the Mussats,
773
00:39:33.480 --> 00:39:35.239
which are in the Quebec Maritime League along with them
774
00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:38.280
the Walcats and many others, and they actually they graduate
775
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:41.840
a lot of actually a lot of former Flames, mckenziwiger,
776
00:39:42.320 --> 00:39:46.159
Alex Tangey, Nathan McKennon and played there, like very very
777
00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:47.480
good hockey program in Halifax.
778
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:51.079
Yeah, no, I'm just curt, serious question. I mean, just
779
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:52.039
Jonathan Drew.
780
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:56.400
Yeah, okay, I don't know how I got going on that,
781
00:39:56.440 --> 00:40:00.119
but I don't like Boston. My dad loves Boston, Big
782
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:03.599
Bobby or yeah, oh, speaking of Bobby Or. Actually I
783
00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:05.000
never knew this was the thing, but I ordered a
784
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.320
book today about uh it's years old now, but like
785
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:13.039
how they uncovered Alan Eagleson's fraud. Okay, I'll let you
786
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:16.039
know what I get it. I really want to read that. Yeah,
787
00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:18.320
they're ripping off all the players, and I.
788
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:21.079
Want to I want to. I want to read Darryl's Hey,
789
00:40:21.360 --> 00:40:24.360
did you watch the e sixty? The ESPN sixty on
790
00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:31.320
the sixty on the Islanders. What was his name? I'm
791
00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:32.800
trying to think of that owner of his name.
792
00:40:33.800 --> 00:40:38.440
John Spannel. Yeah, the guy that tried to the one
793
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:39.960
that bought the team but didn't have any money.
794
00:40:40.079 --> 00:40:41.679
Yeah, do you get the sixties up there.
795
00:40:42.480 --> 00:40:43.679
I'm sure I can get it.
796
00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:45.679
Yeah, you do a little googling.
797
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:49.440
It was a I talked about John Spanel, like that's wild.
798
00:40:49.920 --> 00:40:54.400
Yeah. No, there's a sixty minute documentary on ESPN's website
799
00:40:54.800 --> 00:40:59.000
that tells the story of him duping the whole league
800
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:00.800
into thinking that he had money to buy.
801
00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:04.039
Oh, I really want to watch that. I have issue.
802
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:04.559
It's on there.
803
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:06.320
It's good. It's good.
804
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:08.760
Really At first I was thinking to Charles Wang, but.

Then the other one that's really good on there. Gosh,
806

Okay, by the way, just got to notice on my

00:42:05.960 --> 00:42:07.639
Apple Music it went up another dollar.

839
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:43.880
that's all.
840
00:42:43.960 --> 00:42:48.000
That's good. Yeah, well we survived three hundred today. It
841
00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:49.800
was a little off the rails, but that's okay. It's
842
00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:50.840
a summer episode, right.
843
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:53.800
I laughed a lot. It was good. Yeah, I hope
844
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:54.639
the listeners did too.
845
00:42:55.119 --> 00:42:58.360
Yeah, So here's the game plan. Next week, we got
846
00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:02.480
a special episode on our favorite NHL players of all time.
847
00:43:02.519 --> 00:43:04.280
It's a must listen to it. It's a good one.
848
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:06.800
And then that puts a wrap on season seven of
849
00:43:06.840 --> 00:43:09.719
the show, and we're going to take a short break. We'refresh.
850
00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:12.280
I'm going to complete my new studio, which is about
851
00:43:12.360 --> 00:43:15.000
ninety percent done. I'm moving all my equipment here this week,
852
00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:16.840

853
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:22.320

and a new episode, new season, weekly episodes all the
855
00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:29.199
