00:00.762 --> 00:03.304
[SPEAKER_00]: It's random thoughts Wednesday, number one.
00:03.524 --> 00:08.727
[SPEAKER_00]: The fourth annual NHL frozen frenzy was a success, depending which side of the ice you were on.
00:09.128 --> 00:11.849
[SPEAKER_00]: 32 teams, 16 games, one day.
00:12.250 --> 00:19.715
[SPEAKER_00]: But for the NHL's bermuda triangle, the flames, orders, and jets all one, so there's joy and mudville, at least for a day.
00:20.435 --> 00:31.811
[SPEAKER_00]: and the four of Panthers got off the snide with a 7-3 route of the blue jackets in Columbus, Brady Kachuk, netted a natural hat trick and his brother Matthew said a Panthers record with four assists in a period.
00:32.372 --> 00:32.973
[SPEAKER_00]: How about that?
00:34.017 --> 00:35.898
[SPEAKER_00]: Number two, leave it to A.J.
00:35.978 --> 00:38.320
[SPEAKER_00]: Olet to tug at the old heartstrings.
00:38.761 --> 00:41.262
[SPEAKER_00]: The rough riders star power back was on the R.P.
00:41.282 --> 00:46.827
[SPEAKER_00]: show Tuesday, and I asked him about people jumping off the Ryder bandwagon during this four-game losing streak.
00:47.587 --> 00:57.455
[SPEAKER_00]: He said he'd never bet against a team with Cory Mason Trevor Harris on it, and I wondered how many people were feeling a little sheepish afterwards about giving up on the green and white down the stretch.
00:58.455 --> 00:59.556
[SPEAKER_00]: But maybe they don't at all.
01:00.037 --> 01:00.357
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
01:01.091 --> 01:05.234
[SPEAKER_00]: Number three, Tom Brady and Bill Belichick are being criticized for skipping the Patriots.
01:05.294 --> 01:10.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Twenty-fifth anniversary celebration of New England's 2001 Super Bowl title on the weekend.
01:11.038 --> 01:13.960
[SPEAKER_00]: Viewers have asked my thoughts on it and I can wrap it up quick.
01:14.521 --> 01:16.242
[SPEAKER_00]: People always forget how it ended.
01:17.102 --> 01:17.663
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't.
01:18.877 --> 01:26.759
[SPEAKER_00]: And number four, with the Blue Jays and Yankees out of the MLB Playoffs, it's been one less thing to follow for me, but of course I got to keep an eye on it.
01:27.539 --> 01:40.403
[SPEAKER_00]: The ALCS is tied one-one between the Guardians and Rays, while the Brewers have a two-old lead in the ALCS over the Dodgers, and what's great is, everyone outside the LA area code is rooting against the Dodgers.
01:41.183 --> 01:42.324
[SPEAKER_00]: That includes me.
01:43.624 --> 01:47.145
[SPEAKER_00]: Who doesn't love a good, David versus Goliath story?
01:49.016 --> 01:50.826
[SPEAKER_00]: That's today's Rod Peters in commentary.
