- 0:22Speaker 2: Coach. Are you a Are you a car guy?
- 0:25Speaker 3: Yes?
- 0:25Speaker 2: You are?
- 0:26Speaker 3: Okay, So let me ask you a question in a
- 0:29Speaker 3: different way. If you had a car, would you take
- 0:34Speaker 3: it out for a drive tonight for game one of
- 0:37Speaker 3: the Western Conference Final?
- 0:43Speaker 4: Yes? I would.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Oh, okay to know one minute late. Take your questions.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Please raise your hand and wait for the microphone. We'll
- 0:51Speaker 2: start left side, second road mark. Hey Jared. First of all,
- 0:56Speaker 2: is Calmaccar playing tonight?
- 0:58Speaker 4: He is not.
- 0:59Speaker 2: He's not.
- 1:00Speaker 5: Five seconds left, Burns with it four seconds in his
- 1:03Speaker 5: own zone, shoots that I had. Nelson will tap it,
- 1:05Speaker 5: and the Avalanche supper their first loss on whole lie
- 1:08Speaker 5: from these Stanley cups.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Vegas up three to nothing.
- 1:12Speaker 5: It was three to two, so they find the empty
- 1:15Speaker 5: matter and find the four two in to take a
- 1:17Speaker 5: one nothing serious lead here in the Western Conference Finals.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Oh my god, okay, it's happening. Everybody, say cold on,
- 1:24Speaker 2: what's the procedure?
- 1:25Speaker 1: Say come down?
- 1:31Speaker 6: All right?
- 1:32Speaker 3: Abs go down one to zero in this series against Vegas.
- 1:35Speaker 3: A lot of different feelings as to what that looked like.
- 1:43Speaker 3: Very subjective feel this morning. Now, me and mos Are
- 1:46Speaker 3: are very much in the same camp of not ideal,
- 1:50Speaker 3: not happy.
- 1:55Speaker 2: There's to me me.
- 2:00Speaker 3: There is a certain level of when you get into
- 2:04Speaker 3: a game like you were playing against Vegas last night,
- 2:07Speaker 3: it's a zero zero game with seven and a half
- 2:09Speaker 3: left in the second period, it's anybody's game. And you
- 2:14Speaker 3: get a Logan O'Connor shot that rings off the post.
- 2:16Speaker 3: You get Nosem Kadri at the end of a period
- 2:18Speaker 3: that looks like he could have had one at the
- 2:21Speaker 3: final buzzer. Get Logan O'Connor with a backhand flip that
- 2:25Speaker 3: just misses. You get Nathan McKinnon's screaming through this center
- 2:28Speaker 3: of I mean it's him alone essentially in front of
- 2:32Speaker 3: Carter Heart, and he doesn't put the puck on net.
- 2:35Speaker 3: All of these little details, if executed, could have flipped
- 2:40Speaker 3: that game entirely.
- 2:42Speaker 2: And you didn't do that.
- 2:43Speaker 3: And when Vegas got their opportunities they did, when they
- 2:46Speaker 3: got a four on three going the other way, they
- 2:48Speaker 3: found a way to beat Wedgwood on a soft goal
- 2:51Speaker 3: that you know Wedgwood should have made the saves save
- 2:55Speaker 3: and he didn't, and that changes the entire complexion and
- 2:58Speaker 3: feel of the game. You follow that up with a
- 3:01Speaker 3: dumb penalty that you take, and now you're on the
- 3:02Speaker 3: penalty kill again. Shortly after they're up one to nothing,
- 3:05Speaker 3: and now it's two to nothing. Now you're in a
- 3:07Speaker 3: bigger hole. It wasn't as if to me, Vegas outplayed
- 3:13Speaker 3: you for sixty minutes. It's that they executed the small things.
- 3:16Speaker 3: And here is Bednar talking about that.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Yeah, it was definitely better in the third period. I
- 3:21Speaker 4: liked it early too, Like I thought we set the
- 3:25Speaker 4: tempo of the game the way we wanted to. I
- 3:28Speaker 4: don't know, I can't pinpoint exactly why it went away.
- 3:30Speaker 4: I think there's some like we're going to make sure
- 3:33Speaker 4: we're working for outlets for a d to make their
- 3:35Speaker 4: job a little bit easier. I thought some guys struggled
- 3:38Speaker 4: with the puck back there a little bit tonight in
- 3:40Speaker 4: all three zones. So yeah, we'll look at it and
- 3:44Speaker 4: improve upon it. And I like to see the urgency
- 3:48Speaker 4: and the sort of the relentlessness that we had in
- 3:51Speaker 4: the third period earlier in the game, you know, and
- 3:55Speaker 4: for longer stretches like during the game.
- 3:58Speaker 2: I agree, no problem. I thought they had moments early. Yeah,
- 4:02Speaker 2: it wasn't enough.
- 4:03Speaker 3: You know, the first six seven minutes of that game
- 4:05Speaker 3: I thought was all Abs then flipped to kind of
- 4:07Speaker 3: all Vegas for six or seven minutes.
- 4:09Speaker 2: They are going to be better. They are going to
- 4:13Speaker 2: be better. I can promise you that Texas says this,
- 4:16Speaker 2: and this is true.
- 4:18Speaker 3: I'd be most concerned that the ass have allowed two
- 4:20Speaker 3: three nothing leads in two consecutive home games.
- 4:22Speaker 2: That is true. Ain't gonna happen tomorrow night. I don't
- 4:29Speaker 2: think so either. Ain't gonna happen tomorrow night. I can
- 4:33Speaker 2: promise you that. Look, man, I just I've had a
- 4:38Speaker 2: lot of thought about this. And believe me, when I
- 4:40Speaker 2: go home, when I'm driving home, and then I get home,
- 4:44Speaker 2: and then I get ready for bed, and I brush
- 4:46Speaker 2: my little teeth at the dog right you go potty.
- 4:50Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm thinking about this all the time I'm
- 4:53Speaker 2: laying in bed getting ready to go to sleep. Brett,
- 4:55Speaker 2: what do you think I'm thinking about. I'm going back
- 4:57Speaker 2: over periods in my brain. Sure, I'm going back over
- 5:00Speaker 2: sequences in my brain. I'm going back over a lot
- 5:03Speaker 2: of things. Let me talk about your Nathan McKinnon stuff.
- 5:06Speaker 2: What did you what did you say? Well, can you
- 5:08Speaker 2: remember what you said about n and shots and that
- 5:12Speaker 2: kind of thing? Oh, I just are you talking about overall?
- 5:15Speaker 2: I thought I thought the Avs missed some shots they
- 5:18Speaker 2: could have put on net. Yes, okay, I don't. I
- 5:22Speaker 2: don't think that Carter Hart was really good last night.
- 5:24Speaker 2: Motion he was really good. They could have made him
- 5:26Speaker 2: work harder than any Yeah, let me let me give
- 5:28Speaker 2: you my thoughts on this. Well, of course they could have.
- 5:31Speaker 2: I think I think they made him work hard a
- 5:32Speaker 2: little bit. But let me explain. There are some tough
- 5:35Speaker 2: angle shots that you missed, and it rims out and
- 5:37Speaker 2: nod and on and on. You're trying to pick a
- 5:39Speaker 2: top shelf because you're one of the best players on
- 5:40Speaker 2: the planet, talking about Nate or Marty or whomever it
- 5:43Speaker 2: may be. Because a lot of guys did that right,
- 5:45Speaker 2: because Heart was looking pretty big in his crease, and
- 5:48Speaker 2: Vegas did I thought a wonderful job in front of
- 5:51Speaker 2: their goalie last night. But those shots hit the net
- 5:56Speaker 2: a little bit more. I'm telling you right now, right now,
- 6:04Speaker 2: mm hmmm, that will never not be funny. To me,
- 6:07Speaker 2: by the way, I just blows my mind. How funny
- 6:10Speaker 2: that is that I am telling you right now? Okay, okay,
- 6:17Speaker 2: that's what I'm talking about. Seventy nine in the crease.
- 6:20Speaker 2: As good as Vegas was in front of their goalie,
- 6:23Speaker 2: as good as they were at clogging things up and
- 6:26Speaker 2: denying second chance, they can't do it for seven games
- 6:30Speaker 2: in a row at that pace. I'm telling you they can't.
- 6:34Speaker 2: What you can't, they physically cannot do that for six
- 6:40Speaker 2: more games. Start putting those on net a little bit more. Now.
- 6:44Speaker 2: I know you are a world class I know top
- 6:47Speaker 2: shelf is bitching. They know it. I'm not saying anything
- 6:51Speaker 2: to anybody know, but I but look, you're gonna mix
- 6:56Speaker 2: in some killer goals with some gold mouth scramble. All yeah.
- 7:02Speaker 2: And I'm a big scrambled egg guy, not necessarily if
- 7:06Speaker 2: you know, fried or over easy or over hard or whatever.
- 7:08Speaker 2: I like to meet some scramble. I can mix them
- 7:10Speaker 2: and things and all that. You're gonna get some scrambled
- 7:12Speaker 2: eggs there, dude. And he can't stop all of them.
- 7:16Speaker 2: You beat him twice last night. He's not unbeatable, this guy.
- 7:20Speaker 2: And he played his f off. Yes, he did, so,
- 7:24Speaker 2: I'm telling you the formula is there. Clean up here,
- 7:27Speaker 2: clean up there, a little bit more jamming, jump here,
- 7:30Speaker 2: a little bit. They're gonna be more in sync at
- 7:33Speaker 2: ain't days. I'm telling you they over the course of
- 7:37Speaker 2: seven games. They can't continue to do it at that level.
- 7:40Speaker 3: I'm telling you, well, and it just comes down even
- 7:43Speaker 3: if they did, I'm I think this is more about
- 7:49Speaker 3: the Avalanche just executing when they need to.
- 7:51Speaker 2: And we all kind of know when.
- 7:56Speaker 3: When you're out one of the top players in the
- 7:58Speaker 3: world in kel mccarr, it's going to create an extra
- 8:01Speaker 3: emphasis to make sure that you you're on your p's
- 8:03Speaker 3: and q's. And I think make sure one thing that
- 8:06Speaker 3: I will say that happened way too much last night.
- 8:10Speaker 3: A lot of odd man Russians, a lot of those
- 8:13Speaker 3: going the other way, which You've been really disciplined throughout
- 8:15Speaker 3: the course of this postseason, cod flat footed a couple.
- 8:18Speaker 2: Of times, a couple of decisions that you made. And
- 8:20Speaker 2: it's that again, it's that little hesitancy, Brett I call
- 8:23Speaker 2: it hesitancy. I forget what coach calls it. In my mind,
- 8:26Speaker 2: it's just it's a tiny hesitancy here, tiny bit there,
- 8:30Speaker 2: with the puck on break not only not only scene
- 8:35Speaker 2: passes in this and that, but also breakouts. It's also
- 8:39Speaker 2: you know, one guy maybe is not supporting his partner
- 8:43Speaker 2: as well as he could, or the ford's not supporting
- 8:46Speaker 2: as well as he could presenting himself for an outlet.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Let's go, because Vegas is ford checking the snot out
- 8:51Speaker 2: of you, right, that's what they're doing. They're fortunate, but
- 8:54Speaker 2: you can break that dude with your speed and like this,
- 8:58Speaker 2: you can break that and you almost in on a
- 9:01Speaker 2: couple of occasions you had them scrambling. Now, I'm gonna
- 9:04Speaker 2: give Vegas also a little bit of credit at times
- 9:07Speaker 2: they recovered. Well, there were about four rush opportunities that
- 9:11Speaker 2: I thought, even one on ones that I thought, Okay,
- 9:16Speaker 2: Marty or Val or loc or whomever, they're gonna be
- 9:19Speaker 2: able to beat that guy to the front of the net.
- 9:21Speaker 2: And that guy, whomever it was, on any occasion, I
- 9:25Speaker 2: mean just by the hair of his chinny chin chin
- 9:27Speaker 2: barely got back to force it out, barely got back
- 9:30Speaker 2: to force it outside. Yeah, that's game one, you're hyped.
- 9:34Speaker 2: Game five, you're getting to the front of the net.
- 9:37Speaker 2: I'm telling you, this is the way it works, sure,
- 9:40Speaker 2: I've seen it now it doesn't. I'm not guaranteeing anything
- 9:43Speaker 2: other than I know they're going to be better and
- 9:45Speaker 2: I know overall they are the better team. That's it.
- 9:50Speaker 2: I think there's three numbers and some of these other
- 9:53Speaker 2: things will tell you that it's not nearly as bad
- 9:56Speaker 2: as you think it is or was last night. I
- 9:58Speaker 2: think there was some bed though. There's three things that
- 10:01Speaker 2: killed you last night. Three.
- 10:04Speaker 3: When you have a game that does that, feels like
- 10:06Speaker 3: it's going to be really difficult for somebody to get
- 10:08Speaker 3: on the board. And when you go thirty three minutes
- 10:14Speaker 3: with nobody scoring, you can't give up an easy one.
- 10:17Speaker 3: And I think in the case of the first goal
- 10:20Speaker 3: from Vegas, what you gave up a soft goal, and
- 10:23Speaker 3: that hurts because it changes the feel of the game.
- 10:28Speaker 3: It's one thing I Vegas really earned it, beat him
- 10:31Speaker 3: top shelf, he was screened, it was a deflection, it
- 10:34Speaker 3: was something like that.
- 10:34Speaker 2: That's one thing. But to get beat on.
- 10:36Speaker 3: A soft goal like that, I think is it just
- 10:43Speaker 3: it's a deflator more than anything else. Number Two, When
- 10:48Speaker 3: you give up that goal in your down one to nothing,
- 10:51Speaker 3: like when Vegas scored most it's disappointing, but I was
- 10:53Speaker 3: kind of like, Okay, well, the Apps are going to
- 10:55Speaker 3: have to score anyway, not.
- 10:56Speaker 2: A big deal.
- 10:58Speaker 3: To immediately take a frustration penalty afterwards. And look, we
- 11:02Speaker 3: all kind of know that whoever it was in Vegas,
- 11:05Speaker 3: I forget he sold the call.
- 11:08Speaker 2: He sold it, Miss Anderson.
- 11:09Speaker 3: Yes, but you think, but moj Ross Colton can't put
- 11:15Speaker 3: himself in that position. You can't take a stupid penalty
- 11:18Speaker 3: when you're down one to nothing and they just scored.
- 11:20Speaker 3: You're trying to find momentum back, and instead you put
- 11:23Speaker 3: yourself at a man disadvantage for two more minutes.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Not ideal.
- 11:26Speaker 3: They go on, they score with it, and now it's
- 11:28Speaker 3: two to nothing. Now you're really behind the eight ball.
- 11:31Speaker 2: And the last thing is, and I've talked about this.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Before, when you're on a power play and the power
- 11:40Speaker 3: play is about to expire, I don't know why players
- 11:46Speaker 3: get so giddy about, well, the power play clock's about
- 11:49Speaker 3: to expire. We need to start scrambling to get the
- 11:51Speaker 3: pucking food you're.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Talking about, Sammy, Well I know that, but hang on,
- 11:56Speaker 2: hang on, I see this not just from Lensky, although
- 11:59Speaker 2: Milinsky was guilty of last night a lot of different
- 12:01Speaker 2: guys do this.
- 12:02Speaker 3: They act as if like the period's gonna end. When
- 12:04Speaker 3: the power play ends, you just have somebody coming out
- 12:08Speaker 3: of the penalty box and making it five on five.
- 12:10Speaker 3: But it felt like to me Malinsky tried to force
- 12:14Speaker 3: a shot at the end of the power Peeple did that,
- 12:17Speaker 3: then deflex off a leg, bounces eighteen.
- 12:20Speaker 2: Feet in the air over the head of Milinsky, and
- 12:22Speaker 2: now it's a two on one. Go in the other direction.
- 12:24Speaker 2: You couldn't, dude, I couldn't have the pluck inside the
- 12:27Speaker 2: blue line and throw it out with any better pace
- 12:33Speaker 2: or in a better spot than it layded in when
- 12:35Speaker 2: dude's coming out of the mother. Yeah.
- 12:37Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's unnecessary, is what I'm saying.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Of course it is. And here's what I'm trying to
- 12:43Speaker 2: tell you. This only reinforces what I've been saying. By
- 12:46Speaker 2: the way, Sandford's on me because I'm on my I'm
- 12:49Speaker 2: telling you mode right now. Yeah, the coach is all
- 12:52Speaker 2: over my bacon. Let me coach, will samblin. The proper
- 12:58Speaker 2: move in hindsight is what Sam is such a good
- 13:01Speaker 2: dance with the blue line. You know what, Take that puck,
- 13:05Speaker 2: dump it down the boards. Dump it deep. Make dude
- 13:08Speaker 2: come out of the box and go to his own
- 13:09Speaker 2: end to defend. Right, win a puck battle, get your
- 13:12Speaker 2: cycle going five on five, but make dude come out
- 13:15Speaker 2: and defend in his own zone. Yeah, Brett. Do you
- 13:20Speaker 2: think Sam Malinsky will make that same play for the
- 13:23Speaker 2: rest of this series? I would hope not. I'm telling
- 13:28Speaker 2: you he will not. He will not. He's a smart
- 13:34Speaker 2: player too. It's not that they are going to watch film.
- 13:38Speaker 2: They're going to reiterate game plan, what works, tweaks, and
- 13:45Speaker 2: they are going to be much better tomorrow night.
- 13:49Speaker 3: Your final keyword for this show coming your way in

- 15:14Speaker 3: Go ahead, I'm trying to figure out if this dude
- 15:16Speaker 3: who spelled it r O r O O g A
- 15:20Speaker 3: l A is a real looks like Oglala.
- 15:22Speaker 2: It does look like Oglala.
- 15:24Speaker 3: I've been stuck there. No disrespect to the people of Oglala.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Yuck, didn't I've been to I've been Can you imagine
- 15:33Speaker 2: like mcanaughey, like mcnaughey's bitching. But I've been to Oglalla
- 15:37Speaker 2: probably one hundred times in my life. Now.
- 15:40Speaker 3: To be fair, my experience in og Laala was a
- 15:42Speaker 3: terrible one. We're driving back after Christmas. We got stuck
- 15:46Speaker 3: in a blizzard. All of the interstates roads were shut down,
- 15:51Speaker 3: shut down due to ice and snow, and you had
- 15:54Speaker 3: people sleeping in their cars in the parking lot because
- 15:56Speaker 3: there wasn't enough rooms. So the people who got stuck there,
- 15:58Speaker 3: we fortunately with baby Jamal Cale got the last room
- 16:02Speaker 3: in this like Motel eight. But I remember waking up
- 16:05Speaker 3: it was three o'clock in the morning. I'm looking outside
- 16:07Speaker 3: people sleeping in their cars. I'm like, if that was
- 16:09Speaker 3: me with baby Jamal kle in the car, we're gonna
- 16:13Speaker 3: have some issues.
- 16:14Speaker 2: So that, yeah, disrespect, I would kill you.
- 16:18Speaker 3: I had a bad I had a bad one time experience.
- 16:21Speaker 2: No disrespect. Now here's what I want to say.
- 16:27Speaker 3: I think it is totally reasonable for people to be
- 16:31Speaker 3: upset this morning about the game last night. You're gonna
- 16:33Speaker 3: one to nothing. I'm gonna reemphasize something. Since the season
- 16:37Speaker 3: started on October seventh, a win against the Los Angeles
- 16:41Speaker 3: Kings to May twenty.
- 16:44Speaker 2: First of this year.
- 16:49Speaker 3: It's the first time that you felt like the Avs
- 16:52Speaker 3: were ever behind on anything. It's the first time the
- 16:57Speaker 3: Abs have faced adversity. When you're not used to having
- 17:01Speaker 3: a little bit of a gut punch, the gut punch
- 17:04Speaker 3: feels a little bit worse. If you've never been in
- 17:08Speaker 3: a fight before and somebody punches you in the face
- 17:11Speaker 3: for the first time, you feel like it hurts really bad.
- 17:15Speaker 3: The next about five times you get punched in the face,
- 17:17Speaker 3: you realize there's some bad.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Ones and someones that aren't.
- 17:20Speaker 3: I feel like last night you got punched. Wasn't that bad?
- 17:24Speaker 2: You got score punch, not punch punched. You got score
- 17:27Speaker 2: punched in the face. You're down three nothings. Yeah, you
- 17:29Speaker 2: gotta fight your way back. They didn't rough you up,
- 17:32Speaker 2: they didn't blow you up. They had what three more
- 17:34Speaker 2: hits than you. But in the thirty four hits the
- 17:40Speaker 2: Golden Knights delivered, it wasn't like they're blowing you up.
- 17:43Speaker 2: They're finishing their checks. They're doing a good job. I'm
- 17:46Speaker 2: gonna give them all the credit in the world. They're
- 17:48Speaker 2: doing a good job you had thirty one. They're not
- 17:50Speaker 2: punching you in the mouth. They're not running, they're not
- 17:53Speaker 2: running roughshod. They're not pinning you in your own zone
- 17:56Speaker 2: and destroying you. I mean, it's pushing you around, having
- 18:01Speaker 2: their way with you. None of that happened. None of
- 18:04Speaker 2: it in in minor clean up things that you need
- 18:09Speaker 2: to take care of, which is the difference between winning
- 18:11Speaker 2: and losing a game in the postseason.
- 18:13Speaker 3: Just for comparison's sake and the way that my mind
- 18:17Speaker 3: is operating today when.
- 18:22Speaker 2: When I watched the Nuggets and t.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Wolve series, they got punched, didn't They motioned, The Nuggets
- 18:27Speaker 3: did correct, but they got knocked to the mat. And
- 18:30Speaker 3: that's why I was concerned as hell. They Minnesota threw
- 18:35Speaker 3: a haymaker that I was like, I don't know if
- 18:38Speaker 3: you come back from that one.
- 18:40Speaker 2: This was not last night. Last night was a couple
- 18:42Speaker 2: of Nuggets got a ten count, stayed in the fight,
- 18:46Speaker 2: and then eventually got knocked out. I but over the.
- 18:49Speaker 3: Course of a series, I don't even see that as
- 18:51Speaker 3: a knockdown. I see that you hit a clean punch.
- 18:53Speaker 3: All right, good for you. I'm still standing. Great that
- 18:56Speaker 3: game was not. Vegas just totally ran rough shot all
- 19:01Speaker 3: over you the entire game. It was zero to zero
- 19:03Speaker 3: thirty three minutes into the game. You had the way
- 19:07Speaker 3: better opportunities early in that game too. Vegas had a
- 19:10Speaker 3: couple a couple odd man rushes. There was a good
- 19:12Speaker 3: play by marn Or that he couldn't finish either, good
- 19:15Speaker 3: save by Weggie, all that different stuff.
- 19:17Speaker 2: But if you want to.
- 19:18Speaker 3: Look at Logan O'Connor ringing that that puck off the post,
- 19:22Speaker 3: which was a shot that had Carter hart beat beat,
- 19:27Speaker 3: just missed it. Nathan McKinnon weaves in between traffic, gets
- 19:30Speaker 3: to the front of the net, misses the net. That happens,
- 19:34Speaker 3: I thought one of the better plays of the night, Moses.
- 19:38Speaker 3: It was shortly after Logan O'Connor hit the post his
- 19:42Speaker 3: next shift, I think, or maybe the second shift after that.
- 19:48Speaker 2: They're in the offensive zone.
- 19:49Speaker 3: Vegas has control of the puck, they're trying to get
- 19:51Speaker 3: it out and Logan Poke takes it to the front
- 19:55Speaker 3: of the net backhand, just misses. Like you had prime opportunities,
- 19:59Speaker 3: just couldn't finish.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Nate hit, Oh my god, Nate on a bomb from
- 20:07Speaker 2: the right circle hit Carter hart. I mean he's trying
- 20:10Speaker 2: to go top shelf, and heart's not a little tiny guy.
- 20:13Speaker 2: He hits him right here, right with the mask and
- 20:16Speaker 2: the shoulder pad and bangs it off of there. And
- 20:18Speaker 2: I'm like, I mean, that's so close, dude, I mean
- 20:24Speaker 2: you're gonna be okay? Can I do you want to
- 20:26Speaker 2: finish your thought or go ahead? Okay? Let me go
- 20:30Speaker 2: last year too, to this series against the Dallas Stars. Now,
- 20:36Speaker 2: you started in Dallas, so it's a little bit different.
- 20:40Speaker 2: But you lost game one to Dallas last season. Okay,
- 20:44Speaker 2: but when we got the game, when we got to
- 20:46Speaker 2: game seven, how are we feeling good? And through two periods?
- 20:51Speaker 2: How are we feeling? Let me show you how this
- 20:53Speaker 2: Avalanche team responds. Okay, if you want to go back
- 20:56Speaker 2: to talking about the core, just the mentality. Good. You
- 21:00Speaker 2: lose Game one last year to Dallas, you come back,
- 21:02Speaker 2: you win Game two five to one. You lose Game
- 21:06Speaker 2: three in overtime. Again, you come back and you win
- 21:09Speaker 2: Game four for nothing. Now you're series tied to two.
- 21:15Speaker 2: Game five, you get punched in right in the what
- 21:19Speaker 2: miss mouf mouth? You lose six to two. Yeah, you're like,
- 21:25Speaker 2: oh my god. You come back in game six and
- 21:29Speaker 2: you beat them. You put seven on them in game six,
- 21:33Speaker 2: and you are in total control in Game seven into
- 21:39Speaker 2: the third period it's two to one because Miko made
- 21:41Speaker 2: a nice shot. Then what happened. Look, you don't want
- 21:47Speaker 2: to come down to that, That's what I'm calling it.
- 21:50Speaker 2: You have every opportunity in the world on your home
- 21:53Speaker 2: ice tomorrow night to even things up. I just gave you.
- 21:57Speaker 2: In Black and White series, they trailed in they came
- 22:02Speaker 2: back and counterpunched like a mother. Yeah, and I think
- 22:07Speaker 2: you should put your faith in this team. Now, that
- 22:09Speaker 2: doesn't guarantee Jack squad, But Brett, you said it earlier.
- 22:13Speaker 2: If the Abs win tomorrow night, and I think they will,
- 22:18Speaker 2: would it surprised you at all if on Sunday in
- 22:22Speaker 2: Game three they went to Vegas in one four to one.
- 22:24Speaker 2: No me either. And that's not homerism. That's not injecting
- 22:30Speaker 2: industrial military grade copium. That's not burgundy glasses, that's not
- 22:35Speaker 2: any of that. That is experience and knowing this team history.
- 22:40Speaker 4: It's not like we haven't lost schemes this year and
- 22:42Speaker 4: bounced back. You know, was saying this morning, generally when
- 22:45Speaker 4: we address things as a group that we need to
- 22:48Speaker 4: be better at and give them like clear direction. We
- 22:52Speaker 4: are usually better at them, you know. That's that's another
- 22:55Speaker 4: big break. And it's like even at times like good
- 23:00Speaker 4: like good decisions, good Pock decisions tonight were mis executed
- 23:04Speaker 4: and it led to some trouble against in all three zones,
- 23:08Speaker 4: and then some of our decisions it just looked like
- 23:10Speaker 4: we weren't seeing it quick enough. I got a lot
- 23:13Speaker 4: of belief in the group. I'm not panicking about it.
- 23:15Speaker 4: But next game is obviously a big game.
- 23:18Speaker 3: They've bounced back by the way emotion, I think you've
- 23:21Speaker 3: got that entire thing wrong with that. This last year,
- 23:24Speaker 3: they won game one five to one. Then they lost
- 23:26Speaker 3: four to three. Oh team Game two, that's what I lost.
- 23:28Speaker 3: Two one O Game three, and then they won four
- 23:30Speaker 3: to Oh.
- 23:31Speaker 2: That's what I'm in. Game four. That's what I meant.
- 23:34Speaker 2: That's what I meant. How many That's what I meant.
- 23:40Speaker 2: So you gonna drop. That's what I meant. Game two. Sorry,
- 23:47Speaker 2: Game two, Dallas won, You're correct, But every time Dallas won,
- 23:51Speaker 2: the APS came back and punched them right in the
- 23:52Speaker 2: mouth themselves. They lost Game two, and then they lost
- 23:55Speaker 2: Game three. That's what I meant. But then and they
- 24:00Speaker 2: won four to nothing in Game four, and then they
- 24:02Speaker 2: got punched in the mouth in game five six to two?
- 24:05Speaker 2: Am I right about that? They had punched in the
- 24:07Speaker 2: mouth and game game five six to two, and then
- 24:10Speaker 2: they put seven on them? Damn it, I'm getting better
- 24:12Speaker 2: if the series goes on, they put this am I role?
- 24:14Speaker 2: Did they put seven on him in game six or not?
- 24:16Speaker 3: I'm gonna go through all these games just so you're okay, okay?
- 24:19Speaker 2: Did they put seven on them in game six? Sh
- 24:22Speaker 2: shsh I'm losing it.
- 24:24Speaker 3: They won the first game five to one, That's what
- 24:26Speaker 3: I meant.
- 24:27Speaker 2: They lost the second game four to three, and over
- 24:30Speaker 2: two four three and over time. Correct.
- 24:31Speaker 3: They lost game three to two to one in overtime,
- 24:33Speaker 3: That's correct.
- 24:34Speaker 2: They lost in overtime in game three, correct. Then they
- 24:37Speaker 2: won Game four four to nine. Was a shutout. I
- 24:39Speaker 2: remember that. That was a shutout if I'm not mistaken.
- 24:42Speaker 3: Then they lost Game five six to two.
- 24:45Speaker 2: Now how many do they put on them in game six?
- 24:47Speaker 3: They won Game six seven to four, That's what I meant, And.
- 24:50Speaker 2: Then they lost four to two in the final game.
- 24:55Speaker 2: That's what I meant. My point here is the promo
- 24:58Speaker 2: points is when they lose like that and things get tough,
- 25:03Speaker 2: what do the tough get doing? They put seven on
- 25:06Speaker 2: your ass. That's what I meant. They shut you and
- 25:08Speaker 2: put seven on you. That's what I meant. It's over
- 25:16Speaker 2: a year ago. You can't ask my brain. I don't
- 25:21Speaker 2: know what is that. That's what kill That's awesome, all right?
- 25:30Speaker 3: Anyway, some more here post game. Here is Jared Bednaar
- 25:35Speaker 3: on the car's absence.
- 25:36Speaker 4: He's an important player, right and he plays a lot
- 25:39Speaker 4: and some of the areas that we struggled with tonight
- 25:44Speaker 4: that those are his strengths. Yeah, I mean it effects.
- 25:47Speaker 4: He's out there a lot with the McKinnon line. There's definitely,
- 25:51Speaker 4: you know, a trickle down effect to that. But he's
- 25:53Speaker 4: not playing, so you have to find a way. I
- 25:56Speaker 4: think the guys that we had playing tonight, not just
- 26:00Speaker 4: the D but like, we're capable more and capable of
- 26:03Speaker 4: better and it just wasn't there for us tonight, and
- 26:06Speaker 4: and to make sure it is for game two.
- 26:08Speaker 3: You know, one thing that we didn't talk about, or
- 26:13Speaker 3: we haven't really spent a lot of time discussing, is
- 26:16Speaker 3: the impact moving forward of Kal.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Like here's the problem.
- 26:19Speaker 3: If kill didn't play in game one, he's listed as
- 26:21Speaker 3: day to day or whatever. He had a long break
- 26:24Speaker 3: to try and get himself ready for Game one, didn't.
- 26:27Speaker 3: I don't know how much better that gets two days later.
- 26:32Speaker 2: I don't.
- 26:32Speaker 3: And so I think you almost might have to prepare
- 26:35Speaker 3: as if he's not going to be with you for
- 26:36Speaker 3: a good bulk of this series, if not the entire thing, Like,
- 26:39Speaker 3: you have.
- 26:39Speaker 2: To prepare that way.
- 26:41Speaker 3: And here's the thing, even without him and as much
- 26:43Speaker 3: of an impact as he makes and as good as
- 26:45Speaker 3: he is.
- 26:47Speaker 2: I think you'd have a shot.
- 26:48Speaker 3: You still got a really good shot at winning the series.
- 26:50Speaker 3: Even we're still there, you're still a really good hockey club.
- 26:53Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, listen, he is, in my opinion, the
- 26:57Speaker 2: best defenseman on planet Earth. I don't know what percent
- 27:00Speaker 2: that she would be at. I have no idea, but
- 27:01Speaker 2: that's my opinion. If he comes back, I don't know
- 27:05Speaker 2: what percentage'll be at. Maybe a hundred, I don't know.
- 27:07Speaker 2: But to say it's not a hindrance or it's no factor,
- 27:12Speaker 2: that's a lie. He's a very he's a very important player.
- 27:17Speaker 2: What I'm telling you, where did.
- 27:18Speaker 3: You notice it most? Where was his absence felt the most.
- 27:21Speaker 2: I thought on the breakouts, Okay, I thought, I thought,
- 27:24Speaker 2: you're your own transition game. I thought that because he's
- 27:30Speaker 2: such a good quick decision maker, Brett. Yeah, and again,
- 27:33Speaker 2: the forwards have to present themselves in ways to allow
- 27:36Speaker 2: you to get the puck out of your own zone
- 27:38Speaker 2: and beat that for check. But I mean that's a
- 27:41Speaker 2: huge part of it. Power play.
- 27:44Speaker 3: I mean, you're one for three, it's and it's I
- 27:49Speaker 3: get that they got it and it was a great
- 27:51Speaker 3: there's a six on four, I get it. I or
- 27:53Speaker 3: play that pass by e Nate. I mean that's a
- 27:57Speaker 3: hell of a play.
- 27:57Speaker 2: And Landy pivots right, I mean it was such a
- 28:00Speaker 2: good play.
- 28:00Speaker 3: Yes, but yeah, it feels I don't want to say cheap,
- 28:03Speaker 3: that's the wrong word, but a little fraudulent maybe because
- 28:06Speaker 3: it was a six on fild.
- 28:07Speaker 2: Okay. Nonetheless, to say it doesn't matter is a lie.
- 28:12Speaker 2: But this is why you built the team the way
- 28:14Speaker 2: you built them. I mean, for ad game, for two games,
- 28:18Speaker 2: you've got to be able to overcome these things.
- 28:19Speaker 3: What went into the decision you think to play a
- 28:22Speaker 3: Sean over a guy like Blankenberg. I don't really know,
- 28:27Speaker 3: because blank I'm not really sure. It felt like that
- 28:29Speaker 3: trade was made for this exact reason. If a blue
- 28:32Speaker 3: liner went out, then you had some depth in you
- 28:33Speaker 3: threw him, and.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Well maybe it's maybe it's recency bias when you look back.
- 28:39Speaker 2: I mean, he didn't play a ton against many, but
- 28:42Speaker 2: I thought he was pretty effective. I mean I thought
- 28:44Speaker 2: in what you asked him to do, I thought he
- 28:46Speaker 2: was pretty effective. Now, I also saw a Keegan Kolosar
- 28:49Speaker 2: last night make a B line for a Shawn any
- 28:52Speaker 2: time he got the opportunity, and Sean paid him back
- 28:55Speaker 2: a couple of times, and also was able to squeezels
- 29:00Speaker 2: off a couple of bucks, which I thought was nice.
- 29:02Speaker 2: But I mean he was targeted, dump in his corner
- 29:05Speaker 2: and go get him. I saw that last night from
- 29:07Speaker 2: the Vegas Golden Knights. But you should be able to
- 29:11Speaker 2: still win. You're a good, good, good hockey club. Okay,
- 29:17Speaker 2: let's go. Because I got a year and a month
- 29:20Speaker 2: ago mixed up on that Game three, Minnesota. I know
- 29:26Speaker 2: you have a two zero series lead. What a Minnesota
- 29:28Speaker 2: do in Game three?
- 29:30Speaker 3: They dominated? Yeah, they took control of that game, didn't
- 29:36Speaker 3: let it go.
- 29:37Speaker 2: Yeah, and where you going? Oh my god, they're gonna
- 29:39Speaker 2: tie this damn series up. We're coming home for Game five.
- 29:41Speaker 3: No, but I mean i'd be lying to you if
- 29:44Speaker 3: I didn't. I wasn't panicked at all, but I was
- 29:47Speaker 3: kind of like, Man, if they win again, then this
- 29:49Speaker 3: thing gets a little bit squirrely.
- 29:50Speaker 2: Vegas is a high quality hockey team. The Avalanche are
- 29:55Speaker 2: an incredibly high quality hockey team. They are going to
- 29:58Speaker 2: respond and they are. You give me enough of the
- 30:03Speaker 2: stuff that I saw that trended in the right direction.
- 30:06Speaker 2: You give me enough of that over a seven game series.
- 30:09Speaker 2: I'm gonna be fine with that. Yeah.

- 33:06Speaker 2: don't care.
- 33:08Speaker 3: Carter Hart had a really good game one. He's been
- 33:11Speaker 3: good for the Vegas Golden Knights really all postseason.
- 33:18Speaker 2: Carter Hart still feels gettable to me.
- 33:22Speaker 3: I think you challenged him at times and he made
- 33:24Speaker 3: some big saves, which he did.
- 33:26Speaker 2: He had a couple that just barely missed.
- 33:29Speaker 3: Whether it was you missing the net entirely or Logan
- 33:32Speaker 3: O'Connor ring and went off the post.
- 33:34Speaker 2: I just feel like, you know, in a sense that
- 33:38Speaker 2: the Avs have earned.
- 33:40Speaker 3: The trust that if for whatever reason, a game doesn't
- 33:44Speaker 3: go their way, they can come back and respond. They've
- 33:46Speaker 3: been doing that all year long. They've been doing that
- 33:50Speaker 3: all playoffs long, even in the middle of games where
- 33:53Speaker 3: you go, you know, you have the three to zer
- 33:55Speaker 3: lead against Minnesota in Game one and then you're down
- 33:57Speaker 3: five to four, you respond right back, get a goal,
- 33:59Speaker 3: and it's a time game. You take off again. This
- 34:02Speaker 3: team and I'll play something for Nathan McKinnon. This does
- 34:05Speaker 3: not sound like a nervous player.
- 34:07Speaker 7: Yeah, weird chances. You know, they didn't do a whole
- 34:09Speaker 7: lot either. It was kind of a nothing game and
- 34:11Speaker 7: then they got a few goals and really good team obviously,
- 34:14Speaker 7: but I thought we did a lot of damage to ourself. Yeah,
- 34:17Speaker 7: just guys kind of everywhere. Execution, like I said, needs
- 34:21Speaker 7: to be better, and you know, obviously we're capable of
- 34:24Speaker 7: being a better than that.
- 34:25Speaker 3: The tone in McKinnon's voice sounds like this, mosh eh,
- 34:31Speaker 3: That's how it sounds to me. Just a shoulder shrug,
- 34:34Speaker 3: like yeah, they got us.
- 34:35Speaker 2: It happens we're fine. That's how it sounds.
- 34:38Speaker 3: Now when somebody presses him like, well, really, what do
- 34:41Speaker 3: you think happened?
- 34:42Speaker 2: And he says this state to really take from how
- 34:44Speaker 2: that gam ing did or.
- 34:46Speaker 7: I've just said execution like five things. I think that's
- 34:49Speaker 7: what hurts.
- 34:50Speaker 3: I think that that's his way of being like, we're fine.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Just do a couple of little things, we're gonna be okay.
- 34:59Speaker 3: But again, if you're in for the next handful of games,
- 35:04Speaker 3: I don't know, nobody knows really what the status of
- 35:06Speaker 3: the car is going to be moving forward. But even
- 35:10Speaker 3: if you don't have mccar, this team is good enough
- 35:12Speaker 3: to win this absolutely.
- 35:14Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing Carter Hart did last night.
- 35:19Speaker 2: He he played really well. I thought his blocker was
- 35:24Speaker 2: working well. I thought his glovehead was working well. I
- 35:27Speaker 2: thought again, a couple of shoulder saves were pretty darn good.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Played well. Yeah, he also had guys in front of him.
- 35:35Speaker 2: I thought, who played better than Minnesota did in front
- 35:37Speaker 2: of allstead in terms of overall goalies, is Carter Hart
- 35:43Speaker 2: better than yes, pravolstet small sample size of all stet.
- 35:48Speaker 2: I don't know what you saw in the regular season
- 35:51Speaker 2: and he's a pretty good young goalie. Yeah, so much
- 35:55Speaker 2: so they're going to trade their other goalie. Yeah, okay, agree,
- 35:58Speaker 2: Gustinson's going to be gone. I mean, his god stiffson.
- 36:02Speaker 2: His contract hasn't even kicked in yet, and they're going
- 36:06Speaker 2: to have to move him because this kid's the future. Yeah,
- 36:10Speaker 2: aves pasted him at times. You keep doing what you
- 36:15Speaker 2: did last night. Listen, clean things up defensively, Sure, you
- 36:21Speaker 2: keep doing what you did last night offensively, and a
- 36:24Speaker 2: little bit better, clip, a little bit sharper and a
- 36:27Speaker 2: little bit more in their zone. That puck is going
- 36:31Speaker 2: to go into the net.
- 36:35Speaker 3: I my concern level for the Avs, given that they've
- 36:38Speaker 3: lost a game, I would put it at like a five.
- 36:42Speaker 3: That's how I feel this morning, Like I don't know,
- 36:44Speaker 3: it sucks to lose.
- 36:45Speaker 2: Well that you don't want to be down to the
- 36:47Speaker 2: West Final on your hole ice one game to nine. Okay,
- 36:49Speaker 2: hang on a second.
- 36:50Speaker 3: If the Avs won last night, my concern level would
- 36:52Speaker 3: be like a two and a half. So yeah, I've
- 36:55Speaker 3: doubled it. Okay, they lost the first game. I was
- 36:58Speaker 3: not in and look, maybe this is where I was
- 37:00Speaker 3: coming from, and other people thought differently. I thought this
- 37:03Speaker 3: series would go a minimum of six, probably seven. That's
- 37:06Speaker 3: I thought that from the jump. So the fact that
- 37:09Speaker 3: they lost a game, and I get it, it's at home,
- 37:11Speaker 3: it's game one.
- 37:12Speaker 2: Those things are really really bad. You've been rolling, you
- 37:16Speaker 2: had a sweep, and you had a series in five.
- 37:19Speaker 3: You haven't experienced losing all that often lately. I mean, look,
- 37:23Speaker 3: when did the playoffs start April? What like seventeenth or
- 37:26Speaker 3: something like.
- 37:26Speaker 2: That, fourteenth, I don't know, I can't remember.
- 37:30Speaker 3: You've you've been playing hockey for a month, over a month,
- 37:34Speaker 3: five weeks, and you lost a single game going in
- 37:37Speaker 3: the last night.
- 37:38Speaker 2: You weren't used to the feeling. I'm not freaking because
- 37:43Speaker 2: I know, sorry nineteenth, You're.
- 37:44Speaker 3: Right, I know that the app so a month of hockey,
- 37:47Speaker 3: you've lost a single game going in the last night.
- 37:49Speaker 3: Now you've lost two. Okay, fine. My point in all
- 37:52Speaker 3: of this is.
- 37:54Speaker 2: I still think the ABS.
- 37:55Speaker 3: There was nothing about last night that showed me there
- 37:58Speaker 3: was a chink in the armor that that Vegas could
- 38:01Speaker 3: exploit on you for the remaining possible six games.
- 38:06Speaker 2: They're a tough team, and I knew that going into it.
- 38:09Speaker 2: I knew this series was going to be a grind.
- 38:12Speaker 3: It sucks to lose game one, but I'm going to
- 38:16Speaker 3: keep making these comparisons to show you how different I
- 38:19Speaker 3: feel about these things.
- 38:21Speaker 2: When the Nuggets lost probably Game three.
- 38:26Speaker 3: To Minnesota, and that was after Minnesota took Game two,
- 38:30Speaker 3: Jade McDaniel said what he said about the Nuggets players
- 38:32Speaker 3: saying they couldn't play defense, called him out individually, and
- 38:34Speaker 3: then the response from them was to go out and
- 38:36Speaker 3: lose Game three. I was like a nine. I'm like,
- 38:38Speaker 3: that's if you weren't going to go out and win
- 38:40Speaker 3: that game, then.
- 38:41Speaker 2: What the hell is going on here?
- 38:44Speaker 3: I just don't have that feeling with the Avs because
- 38:47Speaker 3: I don't think they played a poor game last night.
- 38:49Speaker 3: I think they poorly executed in little moments that cost them.
- 38:53Speaker 2: That's it.
- 38:55Speaker 3: I'll reiterate the three big things from last night for me,
- 38:57Speaker 3: where you gave up a soft goal when it was
- 38:59Speaker 3: a zero zero game for thirty three minutes, I think
- 39:02Speaker 3: that's deflating. If you're you're working, your grinding, you're trying
- 39:05Speaker 3: to find an opportunity and they get a cheap one,
- 39:08Speaker 3: it's a deflating thing. Mentally, Number two can't take a
- 39:11Speaker 3: stupid penalty like ross Colton did right after you give
- 39:14Speaker 3: up a one and nothing.
- 39:15Speaker 2: Even if it was even if it's sheap, even if
- 39:19Speaker 2: it was an embellishment.
- 39:20Speaker 3: Yes, in the same way that nos Cavis punched in
- 39:23Speaker 3: the face, and he sort of embellished it after the
- 39:25Speaker 3: first period.
- 39:26Speaker 2: Well, he didn't get the call. But he didn't get
- 39:28Speaker 2: the call. I am amen. I thought him getting punched
- 39:32Speaker 2: in the face was more just than what Colton I
- 39:36Speaker 2: called for.
- 39:36Speaker 3: Agreed, But the point is you can't put yourself in
- 39:38Speaker 3: that position, especially when you just went down one nothing. Thirdly,
- 39:42Speaker 3: poor decision by Malinsky to try and bang one to
- 39:45Speaker 3: the net with a guy right in front of him
- 39:46Speaker 3: and a dude jumping out of the box.
- 39:48Speaker 2: Three big details. It comes off dude's leg again.
- 39:53Speaker 3: Three big details in that game, little tiny moments that
- 39:57Speaker 3: led to that game sort of falling out of whack.
- 39:59Speaker 2: That was it off dude's leg. Butterflies over your head
- 40:03Speaker 2: and lay its skids right to dude. I mean, the
- 40:08Speaker 2: odds of that are almost impossible. You ever you ever
- 40:14Speaker 2: see Honeymoon in Vegas? No Nicholas Cage and what's your face?
- 40:19Speaker 2: I don't know, didn't see it. So he he loses
- 40:25Speaker 2: a lot of money, Doesn'tnick Cage to Tommy Corman in
- 40:28Speaker 2: a poker game that Tommy set up a little underhanded
- 40:33Speaker 2: and because he learned, Yeah, what's her face? What? And
- 40:38Speaker 2: he says he's trying to explain to her how we
- 40:41Speaker 2: lost all this money, and he goes, I had a
- 40:45Speaker 2: straight flush. It's like unbeatable, and she says, like unbeatable,
- 40:51Speaker 2: it's not unbeatable. Jack.
- 40:54Speaker 3: So you've watched the movie, you remember these lines. You'll
- 40:56Speaker 3: probably watch it multiple times.
- 40:58Speaker 2: What the point is, dude, that's like impossible, Like impossible
- 41:01Speaker 2: is not impossible. But that is not going to happen
- 41:04Speaker 2: again the rest of this series, maybe the rest of
- 41:06Speaker 2: this year.
- 41:06Speaker 3: I'm gonna best of the next two years. I'm gonna
- 41:08Speaker 3: blow your doors off. Please, do you ready to be
- 41:10Speaker 3: ga zebo?

- 41:15Speaker 2: Jessica Parker, James Kahn was in that movie.

- 41:42Speaker 3: little Elvis honeymoon in Vegas.

- 41:50Speaker 2: he's eventually got to he's got to get back to Vegas.
- 41:53Speaker 2: He's chased through to Hawaii because he kind of sold
- 41:55Speaker 2: his fiance. That's ok for Tommy Corman, dude, Yeah, that's
- 41:59Speaker 2: what I meant. Motion Ye, yeah, that's okay, that's fine.
- 42:01Speaker 2: He goes, sir, he has to jump into Vegas with

- 42:54Speaker 6: you were trying to recount the flow of last year's
- 42:57Speaker 6: Avalanche Stars playoff series, and I think got every game wrong.
- 43:04Speaker 6: And then this is what it sounded like when Brett
- 43:07Speaker 6: started looking up some of the details.
- 43:08Speaker 3: By the way, emotion, I think you got that entire
- 43:11Speaker 3: thing wrong with Thatlla this last year. They won Game
- 43:13Speaker 3: one five to one, then they lost four to three. Oh,
- 43:16Speaker 3: tea in Game two. That's when I lost two to
- 43:17Speaker 3: one Game three, and then they won four to Oh.
- 43:20Speaker 2: That's what I Game four, that's what I meant. That's
- 43:23Speaker 2: what I meant. Game two, sorry, Game two, Dallas won,
- 43:27Speaker 2: you're correct, But every time Dallas won, the Avs came
- 43:30Speaker 2: back and punched them right in the mouth themselves. They
- 43:33Speaker 2: lost Game two, and then they lost Game three. That's
- 43:38Speaker 2: what I meant. That's what I meant. But then when
- 43:41Speaker 2: they got six, but then they came back and won
- 43:43Speaker 2: for nothing. Then they got six poot on them. Then
- 43:46Speaker 2: they did the getting at seven.
- 43:48Speaker 3: That's what I meant, That's what I meant.
- 43:52Speaker 2: I mean, that's a pretty good go to. If somebody corrects,
- 43:54Speaker 2: you just say, that's what I meant. What did you mean?
- 43:56Speaker 6: Moj?
- 43:56Speaker 2: What is what you meant?
