19
00:01:08.530 --> 00:01:08.769
Yeah.
20
00:01:08.829 --> 00:01:10.129
What do you want to talk about, Sam?
21
00:01:10.629 --> 00:01:15.609
I want to talk about, well, the game, but how
22
00:01:15.629 --> 00:01:18.420
about Connor Hellebuck? How did that press conference go?
23
00:01:20.659 --> 00:01:24.159
I would say 10, 11 out of 10. 11 out
24
00:01:24.180 --> 00:01:28.030
of 10 for a couple reasons. One, I think we just,
25
00:01:28.049 --> 00:01:32.049
the way Sonny answers questions like, I don't think there's
26
00:01:32.109 --> 00:01:36.200
another GM that is as well-spoken as he is and
27
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.459
that goes into the detail that he does. Well, also,
28
00:01:40.099 --> 00:01:44.079
at the same time, keeping his cards close to the vest. Like,
29
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:47.780
he's so open about certain things, but no one saw
30
00:01:47.829 --> 00:01:50.890
this Hellebuck move coming, right? So, like, I think he
31
00:01:50.989 --> 00:01:53.870
does such a good job of balancing the media and
32
00:01:53.989 --> 00:01:57.549
being open and honest, but also, like, not letting you
33
00:01:57.650 --> 00:02:02.040
into what he's thinking. And then Hellebuck, man, like, His
34
00:02:02.140 --> 00:02:06.689
personality today was unbelievable. I was really taken aback. Like,
35
00:02:07.069 --> 00:02:09.490
I had heard things from Winnipeg where, like, you know,
36
00:02:09.550 --> 00:02:11.650
they didn't love talking to him. He wasn't great with
37
00:02:11.669 --> 00:02:15.009
the media. And then today I'm like, this guy's awesome. Like,
38
00:02:15.129 --> 00:02:19.050
he was so open, so funny, so engaging, so personable.
39
00:02:19.090 --> 00:02:21.310
And I'm just like, that's the guy I want in
40
00:02:21.349 --> 00:02:23.939
my net. That's the guy I'm excited to see. We'll
41
00:02:23.979 --> 00:02:26.460
see when he ramps up and when he actually plays
42
00:02:26.500 --> 00:02:29.479
his first game as New Jersey Devil. But, yeah, I mean,
43
00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:31.830
it was just a whirlwind, and I'm just like– My
44
00:02:31.930 --> 00:02:34.849
mindset today is I hope the players are focused on
45
00:02:34.870 --> 00:02:37.810
the game because no one else is, right? Everyone else
46
00:02:37.870 --> 00:02:41.349
is talking about this Hellebuck deal. The media, the management group,
47
00:02:42.490 --> 00:02:45.120
everyone's focused on Hellebuck. The players need to be focused
48
00:02:45.129 --> 00:02:48.439
on the LA Kings today because if they're not, they'll lose, right?
49
00:02:48.460 --> 00:02:50.599
The LA Kings are a National Hockey League team.
50
00:02:50.620 --> 00:02:51.080
They're good.
51
00:02:51.340 --> 00:02:55.740
Artemi Panarin is very talented. So I'm hesitant on the
52
00:02:55.780 --> 00:02:57.000
game today, but I'm excited.
53
00:02:57.810 --> 00:03:00.889
I'm excited too, and it is the biggest news story
54
00:03:01.930 --> 00:03:04.930
in hockey, but I would also say it is the biggest,
55
00:03:05.370 --> 00:03:08.250
it's one of the bigger news stories even in sports
56
00:03:08.340 --> 00:03:12.819
media because of the Olympics, of Connor Hellebuck being the
57
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:14.860
winning goaltender of that gold medal game.
58
00:03:15.300 --> 00:03:16.379
Obviously Jack Hughes has.
59
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.240
They're talking about it on Pat McAfee yesterday, dude. That's
60
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.439
the kind of cultural relevance this move has. And then today,
61
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:26.270
for example, in a normal Devils press conference, Is Elliott
62
00:03:26.289 --> 00:03:28.319
Friedman going to post about it? Is Chris Johnson going
63
00:03:28.340 --> 00:03:30.180
to talk about it? Is Jeff Merritt going to be
64
00:03:30.259 --> 00:03:33.699
live tweeting about it? There are so many prominent insiders
65
00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:36.780
that are locked into this Devils press conference, not just
66
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:38.560
because of the move they made, but because of the
67
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.210
social and cultural relevance that this has. And so for
68
00:03:42.250 --> 00:03:45.830
the Devils, it's so good. You know, I was actually surprised.
69
00:03:46.449 --> 00:03:50.009
The press conference today was crowded, but it wasn't, like, jammed.
70
00:03:50.370 --> 00:03:52.969
I thought it might be jammed, just given, like, who
71
00:03:53.129 --> 00:03:54.409
this guy is and what the kind of.
72
00:03:54.430 --> 00:03:55.129
Move was, but.
73
00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:57.189
It was crowded, for sure, and there were a lot
74
00:03:57.210 --> 00:03:59.490
of people there, a lot of good questions that were
75
00:03:59.569 --> 00:04:02.110
asked by a lot of media people, and yeah, Sonny
76
00:04:02.129 --> 00:04:04.810
gave some really good answers, and I think my biggest
77
00:04:04.849 --> 00:04:10.539
takeaway today was the Devils' internal management group has 14
78
00:04:10.539 --> 00:04:13.460
expected goals models they look at, which that might blow
79
00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:16.540
Sam Wu's head off because he can't even manage one
80
00:04:16.579 --> 00:04:20.120
expected goals model, so how's he going to manage 14?
81
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:21.819
I heard about it, and I forgot who, I don't
82
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.000
know if it was the guy from SportsLogic or somebody
83
00:04:24.149 --> 00:04:26.360
asked about The public models or something?
84
00:04:26.379 --> 00:04:26.959
That was Amola.
85
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:28.060
Amola. Yeah.
86
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:29.970
From the New Jersey Hockey Now.
87
00:04:30.029 --> 00:04:30.750
Yeah.
88
00:04:30.930 --> 00:04:31.850
He asked about it.
89
00:04:32.350 --> 00:04:32.730
And then.
90
00:04:33.050 --> 00:04:35.050
I didn't expect Sonny to give him, like, a reasonable
91
00:04:35.149 --> 00:04:38.189
answer either. Because, like, that's... He doesn't care.
92
00:04:38.410 --> 00:04:38.589
Yeah.
93
00:04:38.750 --> 00:04:41.069
He doesn't care about public models. Like, he cares about
94
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:41.620
his own models.
95
00:04:41.939 --> 00:04:44.120
Yeah. And that's what I got out of it. It's like, well,
96
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.240
Sonny has that covered. Like, I'm sure.
97
00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:48.899
He wants his own models. But, yeah, the public model
98
00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:49.439
is out there.
99
00:04:49.500 --> 00:04:52.459
But, you know, I thought that was very interesting because
100
00:04:52.500 --> 00:04:54.990
I'm starting, again, analytics for dummies.
101
00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:56.470
I'm starting to understand.
102
00:04:56.670 --> 00:04:58.110
Analytics 101 for Sam Wu.
103
00:04:58.529 --> 00:05:01.410
Yeah, I'm basically in kindergarten right now when it comes
104
00:05:01.449 --> 00:05:02.329
to analytics.
105
00:05:02.850 --> 00:05:04.470
What did you make of the roster moves today?
106
00:05:04.529 --> 00:05:09.189
So, obviously, they're going to be Lombardi's coming back in,
107
00:05:09.230 --> 00:05:11.170
which obviously made a ton of sense. They actually don't
108
00:05:11.209 --> 00:05:15.209
have a 13th forward because the salary cap. So, Lombardi
109
00:05:15.250 --> 00:05:18.550
obviously comes in. But Dillon's coming in for Chisholm. So
110
00:05:18.610 --> 00:05:23.170
I'm curious how that plays out. Dilly's a pro. He's
111
00:05:23.230 --> 00:05:26.569
a pro's pro. He's the man. But they have also
112
00:05:26.610 --> 00:05:30.889
been trying to groom Chisholm as a player who they
113
00:05:30.949 --> 00:05:32.189
want to play a lot.
114
00:05:32.370 --> 00:05:34.009
And so I thought it was interesting. He got his
115
00:05:34.050 --> 00:05:34.509
first goal.
116
00:05:34.529 --> 00:05:36.310
He started to look like he was coming into his
117
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.740
own on his onside, which is his left side. But
118
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.759
at the same time, you got Dilley there, $ 4 million
119
00:05:42.980 --> 00:05:45.699
annual AAV, and he's just a pro's pro, and I'm
120
00:05:45.740 --> 00:05:48.500
excited to see how that plays out tonight. I'm interested
121
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:50.250
to see how the D pairs go. Do you think
122
00:05:50.259 --> 00:05:52.209
they keep the top four there and then they put
123
00:05:52.269 --> 00:05:56.189
Dillon with Kovacevic? Or in the past, Seegs and Kovacevic
124
00:05:56.230 --> 00:05:59.149
worked pretty well, and then Dillon and Hamilton.
125
00:05:58.709 --> 00:05:59.350
Worked pretty well.
126
00:05:59.410 --> 00:06:02.110
So, like, let's see how that plays out. I'm curious
127
00:06:02.149 --> 00:06:02.970
about that for tonight.
128
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:05.170
You know, I think a lot of it is it's
129
00:06:05.250 --> 00:06:10.050
part of the process. I don't think Dylan actually got benched-benched.
130
00:06:10.589 --> 00:06:12.129
It's a numbers game.
131
00:06:12.670 --> 00:06:15.290
They wanted to get Kovacevic ramped up, right? He was
132
00:06:15.569 --> 00:06:17.370
not healthy. They were like, we want to give you
133
00:06:17.410 --> 00:06:20.410
a few games. So, like, Dylan just has to sit there.
134
00:06:20.430 --> 00:06:23.949
And it sucks because the Devils have seven NHL defensemen
135
00:06:23.990 --> 00:06:26.310
on their roster right now. There's only six that can
136
00:06:26.329 --> 00:06:30.829
play in a game unless you go 11-7. So, that's
137
00:06:30.870 --> 00:06:31.589
how it goes sometimes.
138
00:06:31.629 --> 00:06:33.730
But what I really love is the depth. and the
139
00:06:33.810 --> 00:06:37.329
competition for those limited spots on the roster. So if
140
00:06:37.370 --> 00:06:40.629
you're not performing, you're going to be watching the game.
141
00:06:40.670 --> 00:06:42.350
Look at Stefan Nason, for example, right?
142
00:06:42.750 --> 00:06:45.389
And I don't even think he was rightfully sent back
143
00:06:45.470 --> 00:06:49.839
to Utica because he got put on waivers, came up, performed.
144
00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:52.720
That third line looked really good. He was scoring goals.
145
00:06:52.779 --> 00:06:55.959
He was generating offense. He was impacting the game. But
146
00:06:56.019 --> 00:06:59.120
because of the numbers game, he was the easiest guy
147
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:01.540
to move off this roster because he did not need
148
00:07:01.579 --> 00:07:04.220
waivers again. because he wasn't on the NHL roster for
149
00:07:04.220 --> 00:07:07.939
30 cumulative days. And so that just is a situation
150
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.449
of where maybe the move didn't happen because he deserved it,
151
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:14.230
but because it was just what's easiest within the rules
152
00:07:14.259 --> 00:07:15.009
in the CBA.
153
00:07:15.329 --> 00:07:15.529
Yeah.
154
00:07:16.230 --> 00:07:18.810
So when you went to the press conference, there were two.
155
00:07:18.829 --> 00:07:20.949
It was back-to-back. There was Sonny and then.
156
00:07:20.990 --> 00:07:22.230
Yeah, literally back-to-back.
157
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:28.750
What was it like there? It's kind of like the atmosphere.
158
00:07:28.769 --> 00:07:30.750
It's a lot of excitement amongst everybody, right?
159
00:07:30.769 --> 00:07:36.129
Vibes were high. Vibes were very high. And I think Sonny, too.
160
00:07:36.170 --> 00:07:37.129
I think he was excited.
161
00:07:37.170 --> 00:07:40.230
You can see in his voice he was excited about
162
00:07:40.250 --> 00:07:43.689
this move. And it's hard because you don't want to
163
00:07:44.470 --> 00:07:49.310
be super excited while also acknowledging you're trading away Dawson Mercer.
164
00:07:49.810 --> 00:07:51.810
What has Dawson Mercer done since he's come here from
165
00:07:51.829 --> 00:07:52.149
day one?
166
00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:56.279
Played every single game yeah he's played 420 consecutive games
167
00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:59.620
for this team so you can't be overly excited because
168
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:01.740
you have to be somewhat remorseful of the fact that
169
00:08:01.779 --> 00:08:04.939
like you're moving on from these guys there's business decisions
170
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.079
that have to be made so it's like you got
171
00:08:07.100 --> 00:08:10.250
to balance all of that but I think the general
172
00:08:10.290 --> 00:08:12.519
sentiment is like we haven't had a goalie this good
173
00:08:12.550 --> 00:08:15.449
since Martin Brodeur right Corey Schneider was really good for
174
00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:17.470
a couple years don't get me wrong but the team
175
00:08:17.509 --> 00:08:19.370
in front of him was not this is a time
176
00:08:19.410 --> 00:08:22.009
when the team in front of Hellebuck is good And
177
00:08:22.050 --> 00:08:25.120
then Hellebuck now is the backstop of this team. He's
178
00:08:25.180 --> 00:08:28.360
under contract for five more seasons, including this one. So
179
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.620
I think the vibes were really high. Sonny was happy.
180
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:32.320
He was giddy.
181
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:33.340
He was excited.
182
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:35.980
And I think just the way he does business is
183
00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:40.419
resonating with other GMs. They're very happy that he's very upfront.
184
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:42.480
This is what I'm willing to offer you. Take it
185
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:43.049
or leave it.
186
00:08:43.500 --> 00:08:46.539
Shovel Dayoff said it in his press conference yesterday. Sonny
187
00:08:46.590 --> 00:08:49.389
got serious, but he got serious really quick. And when
188
00:08:49.409 --> 00:08:50.929
he gets serious really quick, then you're like, all right,
189
00:08:51.169 --> 00:08:52.669
I have to make a move. And who knows what
190
00:08:52.690 --> 00:08:55.190
Shovel Day Off's best interest was. Is there a world
191
00:08:55.250 --> 00:08:57.690
where the ownership group of the Jets did not want
192
00:08:57.730 --> 00:08:59.409
to pay Hello Buck at all? So they're like, this
193
00:08:59.450 --> 00:09:02.230
needs to be done by Friday. Sonny knows that maybe
194
00:09:02.250 --> 00:09:03.409
in the back of his head. And it's like, this
195
00:09:03.470 --> 00:09:05.389
is the offer I'm giving you. Take it or leave it.
196
00:09:05.700 --> 00:09:07.289
And they're like, we have to take this. We don't
197
00:09:07.340 --> 00:09:10.059
have better offers on the table. So I just think
198
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:11.240
there's a lot going on there.
199
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:12.500
But I'm excited.
200
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:15.820
This tells me that Sonny does not waste anybody's time.
201
00:09:16.470 --> 00:09:19.860
because he's commanded the respect with the GMs around the
202
00:09:19.889 --> 00:09:20.879
National Hockey League.
203
00:09:21.340 --> 00:09:24.620
And I love his negotiation tactics, because it kind of goes.
204
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.399
In line with what Lou Lamorello said years ago, that
205
00:09:27.419 --> 00:09:29.539
he doesn't negotiate to rip off the other team.
206
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:31.559
It's all about a win-win situation.
207
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:36.539
Well, how would you positively negotiate with another team, but
208
00:09:36.659 --> 00:09:39.259
also telling them you're ripping them off? You need them
209
00:09:39.330 --> 00:09:42.370
to want to make the move, too. A trade is two-sided.
210
00:09:42.830 --> 00:09:45.370
So you have to give them something that they're going
211
00:09:45.429 --> 00:09:47.580
to like. And you're giving them a player in Dawson
212
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:51.059
Mercer who's extremely versatile, can play top six, middle six,
213
00:09:51.340 --> 00:09:53.539
can play power play, penalty kill, can play wing, can
214
00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:54.000
play center.
215
00:09:54.370 --> 00:09:55.750
He does a lot of things well.
216
00:09:55.889 --> 00:09:58.409
And reliably in games.
217
00:09:58.710 --> 00:09:59.370
Alex, come on.
218
00:09:59.690 --> 00:10:01.690
That's a player that they had high on their draft board.
219
00:10:02.110 --> 00:10:04.909
Can he transition into a star in the NHL?
220
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:05.500
Maybe.
221
00:10:05.580 --> 00:10:08.480
We don't know that yet. But there's potential for that.
222
00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:11.940
You give them a guy like Nico Dawes, a solid,
223
00:10:12.100 --> 00:10:15.639
solid backup goaltender in National Hockey League right now. Potentially
224
00:10:15.779 --> 00:10:18.409
in the future a starter, but not right now. But
225
00:10:18.429 --> 00:10:20.789
with Stuart Skinner playing so well, you don't need that.
226
00:10:21.210 --> 00:10:22.649
Then you give him a couple draft picks. You give
227
00:10:22.669 --> 00:10:25.549
him Nick Bugstad, who's a solid middle, like bottom six
228
00:10:25.590 --> 00:10:27.889
kind of guy. Give him a lot of pieces that
229
00:10:27.970 --> 00:10:30.830
maybe they're happy about. So I think that's what the
230
00:10:30.870 --> 00:10:34.649
thought process was there. And obviously the Hurricanes, Utah, like Buffalo,
231
00:10:34.909 --> 00:10:37.330
they weren't willing to give them that. So Sonny knew that.
232
00:10:37.429 --> 00:10:39.149
He took advantage of it. And here we are today,
233
00:10:39.169 --> 00:10:40.460
Connor Hellebuyck's New Jersey Devil.
234
00:10:41.149 --> 00:10:44.539
Yeah. And it's a great day to be a Devil
235
00:10:44.620 --> 00:10:48.169
fan and And I can't wait for Hell's Bells to
236
00:10:48.210 --> 00:10:53.809
be playing and Hellebuck coming out from the tunnel and
237
00:10:53.830 --> 00:10:56.490
the crowd and all that. But before I let you go,
238
00:10:56.509 --> 00:10:58.100
because you're up against the clock right now.
239
00:10:58.110 --> 00:10:58.830
You want to unbox?
240
00:10:58.889 --> 00:11:01.669
Yeah. Let me tell the fans about it because they
241
00:11:01.690 --> 00:11:04.590
don't even know about this. So when I was on
242
00:11:04.830 --> 00:11:08.450
eBay looking for a Minnesota Wild calendar.
243
00:11:08.470 --> 00:11:10.350
Sam is a big fan of Minnesota, by the way.
244
00:11:10.809 --> 00:11:14.269
Because apparently Queen Hughes is not in the calendar, which
245
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:17.210
I'm going to do a video of. I ran across
246
00:11:17.350 --> 00:11:23.629
a starter jacket from the 1990s, brand new.
247
00:11:23.649 --> 00:11:26.639
Is it the same starter jacket that Sonny has?
248
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:30.019
Sonny has. I paid a boatload, and Mrs. Wu, if
249
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:31.759
you're listening right now, this is an anniversary gift.
250
00:11:31.779 --> 00:11:33.379
He didn't pay a boatload. He didn't pay a boatload.
251
00:11:33.419 --> 00:11:33.700
Mrs.
252
00:11:33.740 --> 00:11:34.820
Wu, he did not pay a boatload.
253
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:36.960
Yeah, it's an anniversary gift to myself.
254
00:11:36.980 --> 00:11:39.120
It's an investment. It's an investment opportunity.
255
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:40.590
So we're going to unbox it.
256
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:43.620
I haven't seen it yet. Let's go.
257
00:11:44.419 --> 00:11:45.899
Don't have my pocket knife here.
258
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:47.679
The keys usually work pretty good.
259
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:48.000
Yeah.
260
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:49.820
So we're going to unbox it.
261
00:11:49.820 --> 00:11:50.519
I'm excited for this.
262
00:11:50.539 --> 00:11:53.070
Because I think I want to look like.
263
00:11:53.110 --> 00:11:54.090
Give me the key again.
264
00:11:54.110 --> 00:11:54.370
Yeah.
265
00:11:54.490 --> 00:11:56.649
I want to be Sonny Mata for Halloween.
266
00:11:57.309 --> 00:11:57.590
Wait.
267
00:11:57.629 --> 00:11:58.730
Is that serious?
268
00:11:58.990 --> 00:11:59.750
Yeah. Yeah.
269
00:12:00.370 --> 00:12:04.039
I'm going to get like a costume going together. A
270
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:05.840
teenage Sonny Mata. So we're going to.
271
00:12:06.779 --> 00:12:12.379
Wally, who I bought it from, he's actually a podcast fan, coincidentally. So,
272
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.289
he found this at a flea market in Cleveland, intact,
273
00:12:16.750 --> 00:12:21.169
a brand, like literally a brand new starter jacket from
274
00:12:21.190 --> 00:12:24.129
the 1990s that Sonny made at war as a teenager.
275
00:12:24.730 --> 00:12:31.519
And I am going to, I am going to actually, well, actually...
276
00:12:32.309 --> 00:12:34.129
Keith is trying to open it up. All right.
277
00:12:34.190 --> 00:12:34.620
Got it?
278
00:12:34.710 --> 00:12:34.990
Got it.
279
00:12:35.289 --> 00:12:36.029
Is it legit?
280
00:12:36.110 --> 00:12:36.409
I don't know.
281
00:12:36.450 --> 00:12:37.169
We're going to find out together.
282
00:12:37.190 --> 00:12:38.149
Is this a knockoff?
283
00:12:39.429 --> 00:12:40.509
Wow. All right.
284
00:12:40.610 --> 00:12:41.909
That looks pretty legit.
285
00:12:41.929 --> 00:12:44.409
Yeah, it looks pretty legit. It's in a plastic bag.
286
00:12:45.730 --> 00:12:51.019
I'll let you hold it up, but just I'm tying
287
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:51.779
this right now.
288
00:12:52.580 --> 00:12:54.460
This is exciting. This is exciting.
289
00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:55.679
I've never seen this before.
290
00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:58.580
Oh, it's exactly the same.
291
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.059
It's exactly the same, and it's brand new, and plus
292
00:13:01.100 --> 00:13:05.070
it's got the tags. It's got the tags intact. Found
293
00:13:05.470 --> 00:13:09.120
somewhere in Columbus, Ohio. Here are the tags. The tags
294
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:09.759
are right here.
295
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:12.080
It smells new.
296
00:13:12.259 --> 00:13:14.960
It smells new. It's not like mildew. It smells new.
297
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.019
It's got the starter.
298
00:13:16.210 --> 00:13:17.889
Oh, Sam, you've got to put it on.
299
00:13:18.009 --> 00:13:18.610
I should put it on.
300
00:13:18.610 --> 00:13:19.350
You've got to put it on.
301
00:13:19.549 --> 00:13:21.330
The only problem is it could be Fat Guy in
302
00:13:21.350 --> 00:13:23.909
a little coat because I am a little heavier. You know,
303
00:13:23.970 --> 00:13:26.200
if you've seen some of those AI photos that these
304
00:13:26.409 --> 00:13:28.779
Wild fans have been posting to me, I don't know
305
00:13:28.820 --> 00:13:30.539
if I can fit in it, but let me try
306
00:13:30.620 --> 00:13:31.000
right now.
307
00:13:31.779 --> 00:13:34.779
So I'm going to try to get this on camera.
308
00:13:35.379 --> 00:13:37.870
You know, it's... This is.
309
00:13:37.870 --> 00:13:38.769
Great, Keith.
310
00:13:38.830 --> 00:13:39.450
Great television.
311
00:13:39.470 --> 00:13:42.629
Great podcasting. Yeah, podcast, television, whatever it is.
312
00:13:44.549 --> 00:13:46.360
This is nice. That's a nice starter.
313
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:49.580
I have a different starter jacket that also I'm just like,
314
00:13:49.620 --> 00:13:51.860
this is nice. It was my mom's, so my mom's
315
00:13:51.940 --> 00:13:53.559
over there. She was the one taking pictures like a
316
00:13:53.580 --> 00:13:54.539
loony person over there.
317
00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:56.179
Oh, my goodness.
318
00:13:56.539 --> 00:13:58.809
There's nothing better than an old-school starter jacket.
319
00:13:58.830 --> 00:14:00.509
Oh, I know, with the tags on. I can't take
320
00:14:00.549 --> 00:14:01.250
the tags off.
321
00:14:01.549 --> 00:14:03.190
That looks like it's fitting pretty good, Sam.
322
00:14:04.389 --> 00:14:09.860
Fat guy in a little coat. It doesn't button very well,
323
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:11.379
but I don't care.
324
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:17.080
Oh, my goodness. Yeah, I'm not as thin as Sonny,
325
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:17.809
but I can barely get it.
326
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:18.379
I think you're fine, dude.
327
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:19.720
Yeah, I'm just having trouble.
328
00:14:19.779 --> 00:14:20.940
It's a TV situation.
329
00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:21.600
Yeah, you know.
330
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:23.899
There's a lot of wires involved.
331
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:24.779
Yeah, that's true.
332
00:14:25.220 --> 00:14:27.419
All right. Woo.
333
00:14:28.379 --> 00:14:31.919
Oh, I am a fat guy in a little coat.
334
00:14:32.299 --> 00:14:34.000
Do I look? I do look fat.
335
00:14:34.019 --> 00:14:37.259
Holy crap. This is not, it doesn't fit.
336
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:38.679
What size are you?
337
00:14:39.419 --> 00:14:39.779
I don't know.
338
00:14:39.820 --> 00:14:41.179
This is supposedly an XL.
339
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:42.710
What size are you normally in XL?
340
00:14:42.899 --> 00:14:43.710
I'm 2XL.
341
00:14:45.230 --> 00:14:47.490
Or is this a, oh, it's a youth. It says youth.
342
00:14:47.509 --> 00:14:50.429
Oh, so this is actually a youth one. Oh, well,
343
00:14:51.309 --> 00:14:54.450
you find out as you go along. But still, it
344
00:14:54.690 --> 00:14:55.669
is a nice jacket, though.
345
00:14:56.049 --> 00:14:57.169
Well, unzip it a second.
346
00:14:57.419 --> 00:14:57.620
Yep.
347
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:00.399
If you don't unzip it, I feel like it's fine.
348
00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:00.740
Yeah.
349
00:15:01.429 --> 00:15:02.509
So I'll just wear it like this.
350
00:15:02.570 --> 00:15:03.049
Wear it like that.
351
00:15:03.289 --> 00:15:05.570
Yeah. Still pretty cool, though.
352
00:15:05.710 --> 00:15:06.169
That's sick.
353
00:15:06.570 --> 00:15:06.870
Yeah.
354
00:15:07.049 --> 00:15:07.629
That's so sick.
355
00:15:07.830 --> 00:15:09.889
Yeah. With the tags and all that.
356
00:15:10.490 --> 00:15:11.090
Let's go Devils.
357
00:15:12.070 --> 00:15:14.129
Dave Singer says I look like a sausage casing.
358
00:15:15.409 --> 00:15:17.629
That's funny. Anyway. They love the jacket.
359
00:15:17.730 --> 00:15:18.450
I love the jacket.
360
00:15:18.769 --> 00:15:19.009
Yeah.
361
00:15:19.110 --> 00:15:21.090
And you know where's a good place to get Devils jerseys?
362
00:15:21.570 --> 00:15:23.919
Down in Melbourne, Australia. There's a fleece.
363
00:15:24.019 --> 00:15:27.620
Oh, because I imagine all your listeners can easily access
364
00:15:27.659 --> 00:15:28.759
well-born Australia.
365
00:15:28.820 --> 00:15:31.559
Well, Devil's Down Under lives down there. So he knows
366
00:15:31.580 --> 00:15:32.200
that same thing.
367
00:15:32.220 --> 00:15:33.320
Are you going to try this, too? I don't know
368
00:15:33.340 --> 00:15:33.620
what this is.
369
00:15:33.700 --> 00:15:36.039
Oh, yeah. I don't know if this is a Zeppeli
370
00:15:36.539 --> 00:15:39.990
or whatever. Here at American Whiskey, Michael told me to
371
00:15:40.129 --> 00:15:42.710
eat it. I don't know what it is, but I'm
372
00:15:42.730 --> 00:15:49.059
going to have this. I love it.
373
00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:55.379
I don't even know what it is, but I love it. Zeppeli?
374
00:15:55.460 --> 00:15:56.620
Yep. All right.
375
00:15:56.990 --> 00:15:57.769
How you doing?
376
00:15:57.929 --> 00:16:01.570
How you doing? Yeah.
377
00:16:01.690 --> 00:16:02.370
You going in tonight?
378
00:16:02.649 --> 00:16:03.289
Yeah, I'm going in.
379
00:16:03.470 --> 00:16:04.529
What section are you sitting in?
380
00:16:04.909 --> 00:16:08.509
I think I'm in near the tunnel 16 or 17.
381
00:16:08.490 --> 00:16:08.750
No.
382
00:16:08.889 --> 00:16:09.549
All right.
383
00:16:09.590 --> 00:16:10.210
We're 14.
384
00:16:10.210 --> 00:16:11.240
Okay. So we're nearby.
385
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:11.720
I'll see you.
386
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:12.350
I'll see you.
387
00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:12.940
Good man.
388
00:16:13.059 --> 00:16:15.779
Thank you, Keith. You're the man. You're the man.
389
00:16:15.820 --> 00:16:18.539
Thank you very much. And thank you for the unboxing.
390
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:21.259
Let's go doubles. Yep. And he says, let's go doubles.
391
00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:24.320
All right. Let's get your predictions in. YouTube live.
392
00:16:25.149 --> 00:16:32.019
As I'm wearing a youth XL, youth XL fat guy
393
00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:33.480
in a little coat starter jacket.
394
00:16:33.500 --> 00:16:37.159
But this will be a prop at.
395
00:16:37.100 --> 00:16:38.100
My Bunker Studios.
396
00:16:39.620 --> 00:16:39.940
Anyway.
397
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:45.000
Still eating a Zeppeli.
398
00:16:45.019 --> 00:16:49.200
I don't like eating on air. Because A, Mrs. Wu watches. B,
399
00:16:50.100 --> 00:16:53.639
it's kind of rude. But I got my starter jacket
400
00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:55.059
right here. Unboxed it here.
401
00:16:55.139 --> 00:16:58.019
Live, live. Here on Game Day Live. A thank you
402
00:16:58.039 --> 00:16:58.840
to Keith Cavanaugh.
403
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:04.049
Does the podcast with Devil's Edge. Devil's Edge with Bryce Salvador.
404
00:17:04.069 --> 00:17:07.930
Good friend of the podcast. It's a wonderful time to
405
00:17:07.970 --> 00:17:12.390
be a Devils fan. Wow, this is definitely has some
406
00:17:12.450 --> 00:17:14.490
kick to it. Probably going to need to drink something.
407
00:17:14.529 --> 00:17:14.970
But anyway.
408
00:17:16.650 --> 00:17:20.400
Roman says 4-2 Devils. Dave Singer says 7-1 Devils. Jack
409
00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:24.190
Hughes gets 2. 4-2 Devils, even though Hellebuck's not even
410
00:17:24.210 --> 00:17:31.130
in the lineup. Eddie says 3-1. Wimpy says 2-1 Devils. Wimpy, wimpy, wimpy,
411
00:17:31.190 --> 00:17:37.849
wimpy commenting at the presser on YouTube asking Connor Hellebuck,
412
00:17:37.970 --> 00:17:39.450
is it Taylor Ham or Pork Roll?
413
00:17:39.470 --> 00:17:40.490
It's obviously Taylor Ham.
414
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:47.079
Linmar says 3-2 Devils. Devils down under says 4-2 Devils.
415
00:17:47.180 --> 00:17:50.069
Jack Hughes scoring two goals today. A.J.
416
00:17:50.089 --> 00:17:52.170
Visco of the Law Offices of A.J.
417
00:17:52.230 --> 00:17:57.730
Visco saying that the Devils will dethrone the Kings 5-1.
418
00:18:00.490 --> 00:18:02.609
What do I think? We should have asked what Keith was.
419
00:18:03.490 --> 00:18:07.289
I think Keith would probably give an answer. 5-3 Devils.
420
00:18:08.910 --> 00:18:10.210
I don't even know who's in that yet.
421
00:18:11.910 --> 00:18:12.490
And there we go.
422
00:18:13.029 --> 00:18:13.349
All right.
423
00:18:13.569 --> 00:18:19.390
So what's my prediction? What is my prediction?
424
00:18:20.150 --> 00:18:24.220
Hmm.
425
00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:32.039
9-1 Devils. That's my prediction. 9-1 Devils. That is my prediction.
426
00:18:33.339 --> 00:18:35.539
And there we go. And there we go.
427
00:18:36.579 --> 00:18:36.920
All right.
428
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:39.349
Well, anyway, I want to thank all those tuning in.
429
00:18:40.380 --> 00:18:42.809
We're here at American Whiskey. Also, I want to point
430
00:18:42.849 --> 00:18:46.529
out something. Robert Isaacson saying people are drinking outside. I
431
00:18:46.589 --> 00:18:49.690
guess American Whiskey got their permit. Nope.
432
00:18:50.910 --> 00:18:55.190
Let me correct you. The city has not decided what.
433
00:18:55.049 --> 00:19:01.289
To do yet. If this was settled, we would actually
434
00:19:01.349 --> 00:19:06.430
have a big stage outside today for this game. So
435
00:19:06.910 --> 00:19:09.210
I don't want it to get out that you're allowed
436
00:19:09.289 --> 00:19:13.190
to drink. Legally speaking, you're not. And I got to
437
00:19:13.259 --> 00:19:15.500
point this out to Devils fans because you should not
438
00:19:15.539 --> 00:19:19.140
be surprised if one day they decided, hey, we're going
439
00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:23.049
to We're going to enforce the rules on the books.
440
00:19:24.690 --> 00:19:26.759
It's not legal to do that, all right?
441
00:19:26.900 --> 00:19:29.680
So I want to get that point out because, you know,
442
00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:31.440
there's a lot of people thinking that.
443
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:32.740
I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
444
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:37.089
If I was wrong and we were allowed to do it,
445
00:19:37.259 --> 00:19:39.680
believe me, I would not be doing it inside of
446
00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:40.400
American Whiskey.
447
00:19:40.420 --> 00:19:42.480
We would have a big stage out there. We would
448
00:19:42.509 --> 00:19:43.359
have speakers up.
449
00:19:43.630 --> 00:19:46.799
We'll be playing music having the podcast having big guests
450
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:50.779
come on that's simply not true but i just want
451
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:53.900
to clarify that you're not allowed to drink out in
452
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:59.109
public all right whether they enforce it or not buyer
453
00:19:59.150 --> 00:20:05.009
beware at your own risk all right wallace clay great
454
00:20:05.130 --> 00:20:12.630
uh great starter jacket hey casey 10-0 Devils, says Casey.
455
00:20:12.670 --> 00:20:14.930
Casey America Whiskey. Hey, Casey, you want to try on
456
00:20:14.970 --> 00:20:19.349
this Sonny Maida jacket? I bought this on eBay. It
457
00:20:19.390 --> 00:20:21.529
turned out to be youth, so I'm actually, I can't
458
00:20:21.569 --> 00:20:23.549
wear it because it's like fat guy in a little coat.
459
00:20:24.670 --> 00:20:27.140
Kevin's getting, no, I'm going to keep it for myself.
460
00:20:27.180 --> 00:20:29.819
I'm not giving it to anybody else. That's an anniversary
461
00:20:29.859 --> 00:20:35.960
gift to myself. Anyway. Wimpy says, Kings are playing better hockey.
462
00:20:36.019 --> 00:20:43.500
Manvaro says 6-0 Devils. Anyway. Wimpy says Sam's guest needs
463
00:20:43.579 --> 00:20:47.869
to get a free watch, like being kinder's corner. Yeah,
464
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:49.450
we should start doing that. Walsh Clay.
465
00:20:49.650 --> 00:20:52.589
Hello, Wally. Five, two doubles.
466
00:20:52.730 --> 00:20:55.089
Five, two doubles. All right. All right.
467
00:20:55.450 --> 00:20:58.329
All right. You bought a youth jacket? Yeah, I bought
468
00:20:58.369 --> 00:21:01.529
a youth jacket. Kevin, get over here. Get over here.
469
00:21:01.809 --> 00:21:02.329
Get over here.
470
00:21:02.769 --> 00:21:04.609
Put on the headset. Put on the headset.
471
00:21:05.250 --> 00:21:08.109
This is... Yeah.
472
00:21:08.230 --> 00:21:10.109
This is Kevin of American Whiskey.
473
00:21:10.589 --> 00:21:14.259
So... As I was trying to find a Minnesota Wild calendar,
474
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:17.759
which Tom bought because I don't want to have Sam
475
00:21:17.799 --> 00:21:20.740
Wu on it, you know, because then they'll know. They
476
00:21:20.769 --> 00:21:24.170
might poison it. Yeah. It turned out to be a
477
00:21:24.250 --> 00:21:27.089
youth XL, but it doesn't matter. So I put it on,
478
00:21:27.349 --> 00:21:31.430
but this is the same exact jacket that Sonny made it. Yeah.
479
00:21:31.450 --> 00:21:32.190
You want to put it on?
480
00:21:32.250 --> 00:21:34.089
Yeah. See if it fits? Yeah. Fat guy in a
481
00:21:34.109 --> 00:21:34.450
little coat.
482
00:21:34.470 --> 00:21:34.589
Yeah.
483
00:21:34.609 --> 00:21:37.009
It's a total fat guy in a little coat. Now,
484
00:21:37.130 --> 00:21:39.009
don't break it. And there's tags on there.
485
00:21:39.190 --> 00:21:41.799
That's how new it is. There's actually tags on there.
486
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:43.440
It's pretty cool, right?
487
00:21:43.589 --> 00:21:45.349
Yeah, very cool. You know what I could do?
488
00:21:45.509 --> 00:21:46.829
This is a youth XL.
489
00:21:47.029 --> 00:21:50.630
Youth XL. Hey, it actually fits you. Are you sure
490
00:21:50.670 --> 00:21:53.890
it's not an adult XL? Well, it doesn't fit me,
491
00:21:54.630 --> 00:21:56.789
which tells me I've got to lose a little weight.
492
00:21:56.869 --> 00:21:59.089
Look at Kevin. I've got to lose weight. You look
493
00:21:59.130 --> 00:22:02.269
like Sonny Maida. We should have Sonny Maida night. We
494
00:22:02.309 --> 00:22:05.950
should get Sonny here at American Whiskey. That's exactly what
495
00:22:05.970 --> 00:22:06.490
we should do.
496
00:22:07.210 --> 00:22:10.049
We just need a good poker game.
497
00:22:10.450 --> 00:22:14.269
Yeah. You know, anyway, so I was trying to straighten
498
00:22:14.309 --> 00:22:16.410
out the fans. They're thinking like, oh, you're allowed to
499
00:22:16.450 --> 00:22:20.269
drink outside and all that kind of stuff. I just
500
00:22:20.309 --> 00:22:21.970
told them that the city doesn't know what to do
501
00:22:22.029 --> 00:22:22.329
right now.
502
00:22:22.349 --> 00:22:27.619
Yeah, I think it's more don't ask, don't tell.
503
00:22:28.019 --> 00:22:29.900
Yeah, yeah, let's just keep it like that.
504
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.880
Don't ask, don't tell policy, but don't be surprised if
505
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:34.759
something happens.
506
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:36.900
Don't be like, oh, no, Sam Wu told me I
507
00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:40.200
could do this. No, no, no, no, no, that's not happening.
508
00:22:41.230 --> 00:22:43.130
Otherwise Sam Wood would be out on the big stage
509
00:22:43.190 --> 00:22:48.460
outside doing Fat Guy in a Little Coat. Oh, there's Keith.
510
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:54.059
And he'd have Connor Hellebuck on.
511
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:59.019
Keith's mom's now on the box. I'm giving her the headset.
512
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:00.980
You want to try the jacket?
513
00:23:01.579 --> 00:23:02.519
Oh yeah, sure.
514
00:23:03.299 --> 00:23:04.380
This is Keith's mom.
515
00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:08.210
Also a big Devils fan. I am.
516
00:23:08.289 --> 00:23:08.609
Yeah.
517
00:23:08.630 --> 00:23:10.529
20-year season ticket holder.
518
00:23:10.549 --> 00:23:11.450
Well, there you go.
519
00:23:11.470 --> 00:23:12.630
There you go.
520
00:23:12.650 --> 00:23:13.039
That's me.
521
00:23:13.549 --> 00:23:16.450
But I don't know anything. My son knows everything about
522
00:23:16.470 --> 00:23:16.730
the Devils.
523
00:23:16.750 --> 00:23:17.049
He does.
524
00:23:17.150 --> 00:23:18.339
And hockey. He does.
525
00:23:18.380 --> 00:23:18.650
NHL.
526
00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:19.359
Any sport.
527
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:21.660
He's a rising star.
528
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:22.460
He is, right?
529
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:23.859
He's on the express lane.
530
00:23:23.940 --> 00:23:24.819
Yeah, yeah.
531
00:23:24.859 --> 00:23:25.559
I swear.
532
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:29.069
I'm learning every day from your son. And I don't
533
00:23:29.109 --> 00:23:31.609
know what he's talking about half the time, but I'm learning.
534
00:23:31.630 --> 00:23:33.509
I am too. I listen to his podcast. I'm learning
535
00:23:33.569 --> 00:23:34.329
so much stuff.
536
00:23:34.369 --> 00:23:36.369
What podcast could that be? I don't know.
537
00:23:36.390 --> 00:23:37.970
Is that Devil's Edge? That's Devil's Edge.
538
00:23:37.990 --> 00:23:40.839
Yeah, with Bryce Salvador and Keith Cavanaugh.
539
00:23:40.940 --> 00:23:42.059
Can you believe that?
540
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:45.220
Oh. You can find them on Twitter.
541
00:23:46.220 --> 00:23:50.980
Instagram, Spotify, YouTube, everywhere. He's everywhere these days.
542
00:23:51.059 --> 00:23:52.619
Spoken like a true mom.
543
00:23:52.940 --> 00:23:53.369
I am.
544
00:23:53.529 --> 00:23:54.329
I am a true mom.
545
00:23:54.349 --> 00:23:56.849
Yeah. You know, my mom was our first listener when
546
00:23:56.869 --> 00:23:58.250
we first started this podcast. I believe it.
547
00:23:58.369 --> 00:24:00.750
And he can't believe I watch his podcast. I'm like,
548
00:24:00.769 --> 00:24:01.569
but you're my son.
549
00:24:01.650 --> 00:24:01.930
Yeah.
550
00:24:02.009 --> 00:24:02.670
It's my job.
551
00:24:02.849 --> 00:24:03.230
Yeah.
552
00:24:03.390 --> 00:24:05.589
And my wife watches every podcast.
553
00:24:05.609 --> 00:24:06.809
That's why I got to watch what I have to
554
00:24:06.849 --> 00:24:08.589
say or watch what I eat.
555
00:24:08.650 --> 00:24:10.059
Like I'm eating Zeppoles on air.
556
00:24:10.150 --> 00:24:11.490
Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
557
00:24:12.490 --> 00:24:14.819
Yeah, I only had half. You see, there's a witness here.
558
00:24:14.950 --> 00:24:16.920
Well, I love the jacket. I'm glad you got it.
559
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:17.480
Yeah.
560
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:20.200
Nice jacket. I think I have to get a Hellebuck
561
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:21.000
jersey next.
562
00:24:21.259 --> 00:24:24.000
Yeah, I can't because any time I buy a player
563
00:24:24.019 --> 00:24:24.579
a jersey.
564
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:25.140
Oh, no.
565
00:24:25.180 --> 00:24:26.279
Yeah, something happens.
566
00:24:26.660 --> 00:24:27.839
Oh, yeah, don't buy one.
567
00:24:27.859 --> 00:24:28.599
Yeah, yeah.
568
00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:30.750
I'm waiting until after he retires and all that. Yeah,
569
00:24:30.769 --> 00:24:32.470
then you can get it. Yeah, then I'll get it. Okay.
570
00:24:32.930 --> 00:24:33.990
Usually it's on a discount.
571
00:24:34.109 --> 00:24:34.869
That's how I roll.
572
00:24:34.990 --> 00:24:35.440
There you go.
573
00:24:35.930 --> 00:24:38.500
You know, I bought a John Marino jersey. And in
574
00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:41.960
the middle of it getting stitched, this true story, he
575
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:44.269
got traded. So I didn't even get the jersey. Oh,
576
00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:46.799
you do not do that. And our fans wanted me
577
00:24:46.819 --> 00:24:49.619
to get a Palat jersey to get rid of him.
578
00:24:49.660 --> 00:24:54.240
And I'm like, guys. Good thing you didn't. Yeah, I
579
00:24:54.289 --> 00:24:55.240
got a Palat jersey.
580
00:24:55.450 --> 00:24:57.410
And I also got rid of the jersey jersey because
581
00:24:57.430 --> 00:25:00.650
as soon as I bought the jersey jersey, Literally two
582
00:25:00.690 --> 00:25:02.569
hours later, the Devils put a press release.
583
00:25:02.869 --> 00:25:04.309
Last year of the Jersey Jersey.
584
00:25:04.509 --> 00:25:05.809
Oh, my God. Yeah, so I'm a Jigs.
585
00:25:05.869 --> 00:25:07.490
Oh, you're a Jigs. Yeah, I don't know. And then
586
00:25:07.529 --> 00:25:10.109
there's a Giants kicker. His last name is Ku.
587
00:25:10.490 --> 00:25:10.950
Okay.
588
00:25:11.269 --> 00:25:16.509
I'm thinking, all right, Asian from New Jersey now kicking.
589
00:25:16.769 --> 00:25:17.710
It's a sign.
590
00:25:17.769 --> 00:25:19.410
Yeah, kicking for the New York Giants. So I got
591
00:25:19.450 --> 00:25:21.210
his jersey, right, on Fanatics.com.
592
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:25.000
Two days later, he had the infamous non-kick where he
593
00:25:25.019 --> 00:25:26.440
screwed it up and he was like on every blooper reel. Oh, no,
594
00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:26.839
that's it.
595
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:28.799
So I'm not going to buy it.
596
00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:29.759
You're definitely a chance.
597
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:30.759
I'm sorry.
598
00:25:30.819 --> 00:25:33.289
You are. Yeah, I know. No, I admit it.
599
00:25:33.380 --> 00:25:36.150
So I'm taking one for the team. I'm not going to.
600
00:25:36.670 --> 00:25:38.450
Good. But people ask me if I.
601
00:25:38.390 --> 00:25:39.809
Bought a Mercer jersey recently.
602
00:25:40.049 --> 00:25:41.490
I was like, no, no, no. I had nothing to
603
00:25:41.509 --> 00:25:41.769
do with it.
604
00:25:41.769 --> 00:25:42.690
Okay, so that's not your fault.
605
00:25:42.809 --> 00:25:43.650
No, it's not my fault.
606
00:25:43.670 --> 00:25:44.250
How about Dawes?
607
00:25:44.869 --> 00:25:47.789
Dawes, no, I didn't buy his jersey either. Okay, just checking.
608
00:25:47.829 --> 00:25:51.910
Yeah, I'm not buying any jersey. So I'm buying starter jackets.
609
00:25:52.109 --> 00:25:54.230
All right, well, there you go. Hopefully this doesn't affect
610
00:25:54.589 --> 00:25:56.680
Sonny Mata's job. because this is what he wore when
611
00:25:56.700 --> 00:25:57.559
he was a teenager.
612
00:25:57.579 --> 00:25:59.180
All right, well, I got to go into the game.
613
00:25:59.279 --> 00:25:59.859
Oh, yeah, sorry.
614
00:25:59.880 --> 00:26:01.019
Thank you for having me.
615
00:26:01.059 --> 00:26:02.400
Oh, absolutely, any time.
616
00:26:02.420 --> 00:26:04.119
My first broadcast. Oh, yeah.
617
00:26:04.180 --> 00:26:04.480
Woo-hoo.
618
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:07.759
I'm a rookie. Yeah, you are a lucky. All right,
619
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:13.420
thank you. That is Keith Cavanaugh's mom. She was an
620
00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:18.619
emergency backup broadcaster. You can be an emergency backup broadcaster, too,
621
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:22.609
if you're screened and then, you know, you're either beer-bound
622
00:26:22.650 --> 00:26:25.559
or Vinny or not here. You, too, can be on
623
00:26:25.579 --> 00:26:27.700
the pockets. Anyway, we're up against the clock right now.
624
00:26:29.430 --> 00:26:31.089
We're going to get the heck out of here. We're
625
00:26:31.109 --> 00:26:33.769
going to have Devils After Dark after the game. Me
626
00:26:33.829 --> 00:26:36.730
and Scotty of SiriusXM Liquid Metal and I will recap
627
00:26:36.769 --> 00:26:40.470
the game that was. Enjoy the game, everybody. Devils Kings.
628
00:26:42.230 --> 00:26:44.269
And I got to get to my section. I got
629
00:26:44.289 --> 00:26:47.880
to put away my jacket before somebody takes it. Anyway,
630
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:50.819
and by the way, I love you, Mrs. Woo.
631
00:26:51.460 --> 00:26:53.339
Happy anniversary next week.
632
00:26:53.890 --> 00:26:57.150
Anyway, trying to butter her up right now because she's
633
00:26:57.210 --> 00:26:59.009
probably got a lot of questions when I get home.
634
00:26:59.309 --> 00:27:04.579
Anyway, talk to you later. Until next time, let's go Devils.
