- 0:32Speaker 3: Jared Bednar Coach, How are we doing this morning?
- 0:35Speaker 4: Doing good? Doing good? You guys, We're doing well.
- 0:38Speaker 3: I just want to get your reaction to a quote
- 0:40Speaker 3: from your star player Nathan McKinnon after the game a
- 0:42Speaker 3: couple of nights ago.
- 0:43Speaker 5: Besian Hack thought there's no way it was getting called doc.
- 0:46Speaker 5: Like Bessie says, they're never right, like the coaches are
- 0:49Speaker 5: never right. Now Betty says that, like they have no
- 0:52Speaker 5: idea like what counts, so nobody does?
- 0:55Speaker 6: Are you in fact never right?
- 0:58Speaker 7: Well?
- 0:59Speaker 4: This year is yeah, like we're reviewing all of them. Ay,
- 1:03Speaker 4: like ever throughout the whole league, and you know, I
- 1:07Speaker 4: kind of felt like last few years the coaches had
- 1:09Speaker 4: a pretty good success, right, we've been watching it this
- 1:12Speaker 4: year and it's just way down. So for whatever reason,
- 1:17Speaker 4: you know, it's it's not just us, it's like the
- 1:21Speaker 4: coaches as a group. I mean, we talked to the league.
- 1:24Speaker 4: We're looking at all the reviews. We're trying to figure
- 1:27Speaker 4: out what is and what isn't goalie interference, and there
- 1:32Speaker 4: seems to be a lot of gray area there right now.
- 1:35Speaker 4: So it's just you know, you're just kind of at
- 1:37Speaker 4: them at the mercy of the league, you know, if
- 1:40Speaker 4: someone wants to challenge it. I felt it was a
- 1:43Speaker 4: good goal. You know, he makes contact with his stick,
- 1:46Speaker 4: it's outside of the paint. He's getting pushed in trying
- 1:49Speaker 4: to avoid the goalie. So it is what it is.
- 1:52Speaker 4: I mean, there's nothing that we can do about it.
- 1:55Speaker 4: We just keep trying to educate ourselves on what is
- 1:58Speaker 4: and what is in goalie interference. You know, I don't
- 2:01Speaker 4: I don't think anyone has a lot of clarity on it.
- 2:04Speaker 4: This year, for whatever reason, the coach's success rate is
- 2:08Speaker 4: very low. So yeah, it's something that will continue to
- 2:13Speaker 4: try to educate ourselves on. But it's I mean, we're
- 2:15Speaker 4: looking at all of them now and trying to discuss
- 2:17Speaker 4: as many of them as we can with the league,
- 2:19Speaker 4: and we just on a night to night basis. I
- 2:22Speaker 4: think it depends on who's wearing the stripes and who's
- 2:25Speaker 4: in the booth, and so you're you just never know
- 2:28Speaker 4: what you're going to get.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Coach. Let me, I don't want to spend the whole
- 2:32Speaker 2: segment on this thing, but you know, Riker had a
- 2:35Speaker 2: pretty good record for a long time. I think probably
- 2:37Speaker 2: like like Brett Heimlig does your video, coach, who's you know,
- 2:40Speaker 2: looking at everything and so on? And then you guys,
- 2:43Speaker 2: it's just like I feel like we haven't changed, like
- 2:46Speaker 2: the league has changed, you know what I mean. And
- 2:48Speaker 2: I know it's a very difficult job. It's not easy.
- 2:50Speaker 2: These things are a fine line type of stuff. But
- 2:53Speaker 2: clearly it seems to me that what I thought I knew,
- 2:56Speaker 2: I don't know anymore. And now I'll leave it at that.
- 3:00Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I totally agree with it. Like I look
- 3:02Speaker 4: at some I'm like, well, the d man is clearly
- 3:06Speaker 4: pushing the guy into the goalie. He's still trying to
- 3:09Speaker 4: avoid him, But like I don't it's it's unavoidable when
- 3:13Speaker 4: you're skating towards the ne the de mens pushing you in.
- 3:16Speaker 4: It's not just that easy to not make contact right.
- 3:20Speaker 4: And then a lot of those are still getting called
- 3:22Speaker 4: goalie interference, just a handful of criteria that they look
- 3:25Speaker 4: at that we're trying to look at. And I'm still like, yeah,
- 3:28Speaker 4: that's no goaler, that's a good goal, and it goes
- 3:30Speaker 4: the other way, and it's throughout the league. But like
- 3:34Speaker 4: I said, it's just I think if you're going to
- 3:37Speaker 4: challenge it, we don't challenge a lot because I think
- 3:39Speaker 4: if you're going to challenge, you have to be, you know,
- 3:43Speaker 4: really really sure that it's overturned. You know, like I
- 3:47Speaker 4: wouldn't have challenged that one the other night that that
- 3:49Speaker 4: Washington did, and they challenged it and they won. So
- 3:52Speaker 4: it's yeah, you're kind of always just, I guess, guessing
- 3:57Speaker 4: a little bit and hoping for the best, which isn't
- 3:59Speaker 4: a great feeling as a coach when a two minute
- 4:02Speaker 4: penalty is, you know, waiting for you if you don't
- 4:06Speaker 4: get it right, especially with all the games being so close.
- 4:10Speaker 8: All right, So here's your chance, coach, to answer it
- 4:13Speaker 8: and to define it with clarity. What is goalie interference?
- 4:20Speaker 4: It's when you go into the paint on your own
- 4:26Speaker 4: and impede the goalie for making the save. Okay, in
- 4:31Speaker 4: the paint, right, Like, that's what it's supposed to be.
- 4:33Speaker 4: It's supposed to be that simple. If you go into
- 4:36Speaker 4: the paint on your own or guys putting you in,
- 4:39Speaker 4: and you don't try to avoid the goalie and you
- 4:42Speaker 4: make contact with him and it impedes him from being
- 4:45Speaker 4: able to play his position or make the save, then
- 4:48Speaker 4: scoring interference?
- 4:50Speaker 6: Would you hesitate less if I asked you what is
- 4:52Speaker 6: the meaning of life?
- 4:56Speaker 4: At this point?
- 4:57Speaker 3: Probably Jared Bednar with us all conversation with the coach
- 5:00Speaker 3: that brought you by, mister Ruter Plumbing, probably rooting for
- 5:02Speaker 3: Colorado's hockey team. So you know, I know we talked
- 5:07Speaker 3: about Nathan McKinnon a lot because he is a fantastic player,
- 5:11Speaker 3: but the pace that he's on this year is just
- 5:14Speaker 3: another type of level.
- 5:16Speaker 6: Do you see?
- 5:17Speaker 3: Is there something that's noticeable every year how he seemingly
- 5:20Speaker 3: to he impossibly improves. I guess because every year he
- 5:25Speaker 3: gets better when it feels like he's already at the
- 5:27Speaker 3: peak of his game.
- 5:28Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of hard to explain or describe or
- 5:33Speaker 4: you know, find reason as to how that is possible.
- 5:38Speaker 4: I mean the amount of work and dedication and focus
- 5:43Speaker 4: he puts into and preparation that he puts into his game.
- 5:48Speaker 4: It's it's not surprising me that he's like getting better,
- 5:54Speaker 4: because that's what happens. He keeps himself in top condition.
- 5:58Speaker 4: He's always prepaired looking to it's but it does amaze
- 6:03Speaker 4: me with the consistency that he's able to play with
- 6:07Speaker 4: and be at that high level all the time. Like
- 6:09Speaker 4: if he just goes out and has an average night,
- 6:13Speaker 4: which isn't very often, everyone's kind of like, well, what
- 6:16Speaker 4: was wrong with they tonight? You know, and because you
- 6:19Speaker 4: just expect him to be able to go and dominate,
- 6:21Speaker 4: which isn't just crazy when you think about it, but
- 6:26Speaker 4: you know, like he's he's adding things to his game.
- 6:30Speaker 4: I think Marty this year in a way is helping
- 6:34Speaker 4: his game. He doesn't have to be the guy that
- 6:37Speaker 4: transitions and talk all the time from the zone to
- 6:40Speaker 4: ozone play and you know, if Marty's I've kind of
- 6:45Speaker 4: noticed a little bit like a trend that you know,
- 6:48Speaker 4: Mac would always have to be the guy that's kind
- 6:50Speaker 4: of controlling play. Say it's with Kal on the perimeter
- 6:54Speaker 4: up top and the offensive zone. He'd always have to
- 6:58Speaker 4: be out there and and he'd play a good give
- 7:01Speaker 4: and goal game with Miko and his live mates, But
- 7:04Speaker 4: at the end of the day, he liked to be
- 7:07Speaker 4: like the guy in control, and I think he's he's
- 7:11Speaker 4: giving up a little bit of that control at times
- 7:13Speaker 4: with Marty Netcash because he has that ability to find
- 7:17Speaker 4: space and meet guys one on one with his skating
- 7:21Speaker 4: and play on the perimeter. And then when Marty's doing that,
- 7:24Speaker 4: Nate's doing job a good job at getting into the
- 7:28Speaker 4: dirty areas of the i's scoring area and NetFront middle
- 7:33Speaker 4: and he's picking up some gritty goals in there as well.
- 7:37Speaker 4: So that's kind of added a little bit to his
- 7:39Speaker 4: goal scoring. It's having a player like that that can
- 7:43Speaker 4: hang on to the puck on the perimeter and deliver
- 7:45Speaker 4: the puck to the net through traffic, and then he's
- 7:48Speaker 4: picking up some of those goals. And I love that
- 7:51Speaker 4: ad to his game and the recognition that, you know,
- 7:54Speaker 4: Marty doesn't necessarily need him on the perimeter all the time.
- 7:57Speaker 4: Sometimes they'll both end up out there and just create
- 8:00Speaker 4: motion and space and wearing teams down before they start
- 8:04Speaker 4: to attack or penetrate to the scoring area of the ice,
- 8:07Speaker 4: and it's a good balance on that line right now.
- 8:10Speaker 4: I think they're working together better and better as the
- 8:12Speaker 4: season goes on.
- 8:14Speaker 2: You know, one thing I know about you is you
- 8:15Speaker 2: are a nipper in the butter guy. Right yeah, let's
- 8:19Speaker 2: just let's let's fix this right now. How much were
- 8:22Speaker 2: you pleased in terms of the rebound you guys had
- 8:25Speaker 2: against Washington after that debacle against Nash very please?
- 8:30Speaker 4: So, and I can get specific with deal. Right, Like,
- 8:34Speaker 4: we come out of the Toronto game, okay, because we
- 8:38Speaker 4: had the two games on the road, right Tampa and Florida,
- 8:41Speaker 4: which we've played extremely hard, and we're a little bit
- 8:44Speaker 4: off balance, missing some key guys for the first couple
- 8:47Speaker 4: of games. But we bounced back Ottawall Columbus and then
- 8:52Speaker 4: we hit Toronto, which is a really good team at
- 8:55Speaker 4: the time, playing very well. And I did not like
- 8:59Speaker 4: the way we checked the puck back in that game
- 9:01Speaker 4: at times, right, Like, first period was okay, second period
- 9:05Speaker 4: was poor. We spent way too much time in the
- 9:07Speaker 4: d zone, and then we sort of fixed it for
- 9:10Speaker 4: the third, but we didn't do it for full sixty.
- 9:13Speaker 4: So we addressed it. Getting more assertive. You know, defending
- 9:19Speaker 4: and checking the puck back with more voracity. And in
- 9:25Speaker 4: the National game it was not good again, right, And
- 9:31Speaker 4: so I started studying the National game and we did
- 9:35Speaker 4: a good job of trying to check the puck back
- 9:37Speaker 4: quickly at times in that game, but our pop play
- 9:41Speaker 4: was so poor. And if I went through the video
- 9:46Speaker 4: and say, you got a breakout because they put it
- 9:49Speaker 4: in therefore checking your team met five guys hitting their route,
- 9:53Speaker 4: doing it right, working to the right spots in order
- 9:56Speaker 4: to have a clean breakout. And I look at break
- 9:59Speaker 4: up and I'm like, all three guys are doing it right.
- 10:02Speaker 4: Four guys are doing it right. Three guys are doing
- 10:04Speaker 4: it right. And we never really had five guys doing
- 10:09Speaker 4: what they were supposed to be doing. So you can't
- 10:11Speaker 4: play fast. You can't be predictable to yourselves and play
- 10:14Speaker 4: fast and move the puck efficiently. And it was the
- 10:17Speaker 4: same in the neutral zone e groups. We're kind of
- 10:20Speaker 4: swinging away and not watching the puck and then we
- 10:22Speaker 4: need that outlet he's not there. So we address that
- 10:27Speaker 4: with our guys after the Nashville game and said, like,
- 10:31Speaker 4: we got to get We'll get to fix these two
- 10:33Speaker 4: things quickly. Well, we checked the puck back as a pack,
- 10:38Speaker 4: and we hit our breakout routes, our neutral zone routes,
- 10:41Speaker 4: and it led to a significant advantage for us, and
- 10:45Speaker 4: not only O zone play time, but the scoring chances
- 10:49Speaker 4: were the same thing, Like we double them up on shots.
- 10:51Speaker 4: I'm almost double them up on scoring chances, double them
- 10:54Speaker 4: up on O zone time to dzone coverage time. So
- 10:58Speaker 4: and that's kind of how our team is sponded all year,
- 11:01Speaker 4: Like we're not practicing really because of the schedule and
- 11:05Speaker 4: the demands of the schedule, and we need to have
- 11:08Speaker 4: our legs and energy, so we are fixing it versus
- 11:12Speaker 4: with video and those things shouldn't take weeks to fix.
- 11:17Speaker 4: Like you understand what wrong in the game, it's nothing new,
- 11:22Speaker 4: it's nothing that we haven't been working on since training camp.
- 11:24Speaker 4: We just get off track for a little bit. We
- 11:27Speaker 4: address it with our guys, and they've implemented it in
- 11:30Speaker 4: the very next game. So I'm really proud of the
- 11:32Speaker 4: guys for the game that we played against Washington. So
- 11:35Speaker 4: we showed a bunch of it again and hopefully we
- 11:37Speaker 4: just continue down that path again here tonight with Anon Coach.
- 11:42Speaker 8: I'm curious coaching is also listening how much feedback you
- 11:45Speaker 8: allow from your players, like if they want to change
- 11:47Speaker 8: something up, if they want to reformat a power play
- 11:51Speaker 8: or a PEK, how much back and forth goes on.
- 11:55Speaker 4: So there's a significant amount, especially with the special teams,
- 11:59Speaker 4: because it's every power play is trying to do something
- 12:02Speaker 4: different against your PK. They have strengths, like personnel strengths
- 12:07Speaker 4: that you know, they have certain players to do this
- 12:10Speaker 4: really well. I e. Old Vegekin can really rip it
- 12:12Speaker 4: from that that weekside dot or every flank, and so
- 12:17Speaker 4: everyone has a different strength and every power play has
- 12:19Speaker 4: something new that they want to do. Penalty kills the
- 12:22Speaker 4: same way, like if they want to take away mac,
- 12:24Speaker 4: you know, like what are our options? Where do we
- 12:27Speaker 4: want to execute to create scoring chances. Five on five
- 12:32Speaker 4: is a little bit different. We've been playing a similar style.
- 12:35Speaker 4: You know, we're always making sort of little tweaks and
- 12:38Speaker 4: what I would call just adjustments based on who we're
- 12:43Speaker 4: playing and what they're trying to do. But our structure
- 12:46Speaker 4: of our game is the same five on five and
- 12:49Speaker 4: it's and it's worked really well for us. We've been
- 12:51Speaker 4: a really good five on five team. I think our
- 12:53Speaker 4: players believe in it. I think they like that We
- 12:56Speaker 4: don't switch all the time. It's just doing what we do.
- 13:00Speaker 4: And and you know, and I don't think many coaches
- 13:03Speaker 4: change the way they play five on five. If something's
- 13:06Speaker 4: not working, then you address it and make the tweaks
- 13:11Speaker 4: that you need to, but so little less on the
- 13:14Speaker 4: five on five play. It's a little bit more of
- 13:16Speaker 4: a dictatorship. We allow the creativity on the offensive side
- 13:23Speaker 4: of it, but when it comes to our structure to
- 13:25Speaker 4: check the put back, we're pretty rigid with that. When
- 13:28Speaker 4: it gets to special teams, there's there's a lot of
- 13:31Speaker 4: back and forth, you know, because they're the ones playing
- 13:34Speaker 4: the game. You know, Like we'll talk to Mac and say, well, Mac,
- 13:37Speaker 4: what do you know? What what would you like Marty
- 13:39Speaker 4: to do when you get in this spot? You know,
- 13:41Speaker 4: I have my ideas about how do you how would
- 13:43Speaker 4: you handle it? What are you seeing? What do you
- 13:45Speaker 4: think we should you know? And then and that's why
- 13:48Speaker 4: those power plays, penalty kill meetings are small group meetings
- 13:51Speaker 4: because we encourage the discussion. Then we just bring them
- 13:54Speaker 4: all on to the same page and okay, let's go.
- 13:57Speaker 4: These are your handful of options. When they happens, these
- 14:00Speaker 4: are your handful of options when this happens, and let's
- 14:03Speaker 4: execute and do it with some fates and make sure
- 14:06Speaker 4: we have the attack mentality and kind of go from there.
- 14:08Speaker 4: And when we had a meeting, you know with our
- 14:11Speaker 4: power play I'd say it's probably about three weeks ago
- 14:15Speaker 4: and sat him down and you know it wasn't our
- 14:17Speaker 4: first one, but it was a really productive meeting and
- 14:20Speaker 4: our power plays responded since they been into the twenty
- 14:24Speaker 4: plus percent mark and they're chipping in and scoring us
- 14:28Speaker 4: some big goals here recently, so it's a really good
- 14:30Speaker 4: step in the right direction.
- 14:32Speaker 8: My last question, and this is more of a coaching perspective,
- 14:35Speaker 8: as you know, the Denver Broncos are going to play
- 14:37Speaker 8: a big game this week without the starting quarterback. But
- 14:40Speaker 8: I saw Sean Payton get on the stage after the
- 14:42Speaker 8: announcement was made, and I saw something in his eye
- 14:45Speaker 8: about being able to coach up a backup as a
- 14:48Speaker 8: guy who's had to coach backups because you've had injuries. Well,
- 14:51Speaker 8: I mean, what do you think is going through Peyton's mind?
- 14:54Speaker 8: And how should Bronco fans feel about that? You can't
- 14:56Speaker 8: compare the quarterback position really to anything in hockey, maybe
- 14:59Speaker 8: the goalie.
- 15:00Speaker 2: But what happens now?
- 15:02Speaker 8: How is Sean Payton going to deal with this?
- 15:05Speaker 4: Yeah? I don't think you can compare it to anything
- 15:07Speaker 4: in hockey. It would be I guess mostly like losing
- 15:11Speaker 4: for us like Calee or McKinnon because the goalie, you
- 15:16Speaker 4: he's not you know, he's not running your offense. He's
- 15:19Speaker 4: not a big you know, like he's he's not driving
- 15:22Speaker 4: any play, right, So it'd be more like Mac or Kale.
- 15:27Speaker 4: So here's the thing that's the biggest challenge a coach
- 15:30Speaker 4: is going to face in my opinion, right, you lose
- 15:32Speaker 4: the guy that's been taking all the snaps for a
- 15:34Speaker 4: couple of years, that's, you know, touches every area of
- 15:38Speaker 4: your game when it comes to trying to score points, right,
- 15:42Speaker 4: So it's a big challenge. You don't have any choice
- 15:45Speaker 4: really but to look at it and be like, yeah, like,
- 15:48Speaker 4: so you're gonna set a game plan that may look
- 15:51Speaker 4: similar or different than what you've been doing all year,
- 15:55Speaker 4: but you have no choice. So everyone around you know
- 15:59Speaker 4: it's didn't in that position, is going to have to
- 16:02Speaker 4: be elite and they're going to all have to be
- 16:04Speaker 4: bought into the game plan. Those coaches are going to
- 16:07Speaker 4: do hack of the job, digging in and figuring out
- 16:11Speaker 4: what is the best game plan to try and win
- 16:13Speaker 4: this game. And you know, it's such a big game.
- 16:18Speaker 4: It's just too bad that happened at this time. But
- 16:20Speaker 4: it's a great challenge for their team and that's the
- 16:23Speaker 4: circumstances that they're dealt and that's what they have to
- 16:26Speaker 4: deal with, right, So it's it's a I think the
- 16:28Speaker 4: whole team is going to step up and look at
- 16:31Speaker 4: it like a big challenge and and where it is
- 16:34Speaker 4: a badge of honor trying to win that when win
- 16:36Speaker 4: that football game. So it's it's going to be something
- 16:39Speaker 4: to watch.
- 16:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I know you're your fraternity here in uh you know,
- 16:43Speaker 3: having four major sports teams in the same city, it's
- 16:46Speaker 3: pretty rare.
- 16:46Speaker 6: Are you going to be watching on Saturday?
- 16:49Speaker 4: I am absolutely going to watch.
- 16:50Speaker 2: Yes, I think it's on Sunday.
- 16:53Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Sunday they got a game in Toronto.
- 16:57Speaker 8: Bro halfway through but I wrapped together.
- 16:59Speaker 6: Sorry, I have a couple more.
- 17:01Speaker 4: I think we're gonna be able to see it though,
- 17:03Speaker 4: right because we're an early game in Toronto.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's that one. Yeah, it's so we're the
- 17:09Speaker 2: early game. We dropped the plucket one thirty I think
- 17:11Speaker 2: Toronto time, but they tick off at three pm Toronto time. Yeah,
- 17:18Speaker 2: we'll catch you out, Yeah for sure.
- 17:20Speaker 3: Just a couple more real quick, coach, I know that
- 17:21Speaker 3: late scratch Vlachu's gonna get in the car accident a
- 17:24Speaker 3: couple of days ago.
- 17:25Speaker 6: Is he going to go tonight?
- 17:27Speaker 4: He is going to go tonight. We're going to see
- 17:31Speaker 4: how he presents this morning, but all indications yesterday have
- 17:35Speaker 4: him playing tonight awesome.
- 17:37Speaker 3: And then Taves and Landiskagan the updates they are just
- 17:40Speaker 3: kind of same on the same one, kinda.
- 17:42Speaker 4: Same well, they're both Kivvy Rant and Taves, well, all
- 17:46Speaker 4: three of them are making great progress. Landy's doing more
- 17:51Speaker 4: and more in the gym. He's still aways outdought that
- 17:53Speaker 4: was a little bit more serious of an injury obviously,
- 17:58Speaker 4: Kivvy Rant and Tasi and skiing and uh, Kivvy's now
- 18:03Speaker 4: now joining the group. So I don't think he's gonna
- 18:06Speaker 4: be able to go tonight. But we're hoping for Kivvy
- 18:08Speaker 4: on Friday against Philly and Tay, you know, hopefully sometimes
- 18:14Speaker 4: shortly after that. I don't think he could be ready
- 18:17Speaker 4: for these two home games.
- 18:18Speaker 8: Uh.
- 18:18Speaker 3: And then finally, did you see the baby that was
- 18:21Speaker 3: more upset at the overturned call than you were, that
- 18:24Speaker 3: was sitting behind you.
- 18:25Speaker 4: I did not.
- 18:28Speaker 2: I'll send you the picture so when you're mad about
- 18:31Speaker 2: the overturned you know the GOLDI interference call, there's a
- 18:35Speaker 2: baby behind you. I think the people they just had
- 18:38Speaker 2: a baby, right, They have sat behind you for a
- 18:40Speaker 2: long baby. The baby's on location doing the game. And
- 18:45Speaker 2: the baby looks angry.
- 18:46Speaker 3: It's got headphones on, it's got a sour face, it's
- 18:49Speaker 3: it's it established your emotion better than yourself.
- 18:53Speaker 6: I think.
- 18:57Speaker 4: I met them. They behind they've sat behind our bench
- 19:01Speaker 4: for for quite some time. Nice people. And yeah they're
- 19:06Speaker 4: they're already getting the baby into which I like.
- 19:09Speaker 6: Head coach of the f Jared bed no kids, kids.
- 19:12Speaker 2: Send it fast enough so that he can wait.
- 19:14Speaker 6: You want him get his reaction on theirs.
- 19:17Speaker 3: Just give us a second here, coach, and see if
- 19:18Speaker 3: you can get this picture, because we do.
- 19:20Speaker 6: You gotta see it.
- 19:21Speaker 3: I mean, because your stoic on the bench, you don't
- 19:24Speaker 3: show all that much emotion. I think the baby just
- 19:26Speaker 3: like felt the emotion through the glass behind you.
- 19:28Speaker 2: It's an emotional support baby, whatever you're feeling.
- 19:32Speaker 8: What would be better if if if Jared grabbed the
- 19:34Speaker 8: baby and started fainting it during the game.
- 19:37Speaker 6: Do you got to coach?
- 19:38Speaker 4: See see even even the baby knows it's not going.
- 19:42Speaker 8: Yeah, exactly right.
- 19:45Speaker 6: All right, coach, you're the best. I appreciate the time.
- 19:47Speaker 6: Good luck tonight.

- 20:02Speaker 2: like this is that baby's like Nelly?
- 20:07Speaker 8: Do you have that?
- 20:08Speaker 2: If you could put it up for the peace before

- 21:01Speaker 6: Vic, that's a good dad joke. Broadcasting with the Backus
- 21:05Speaker 6: and Shaker Studio. Serious lawyers with a seriously injured back
- 21:08Speaker 6: after this.
- 21:08Speaker 2: By the way, as we get back to football at
- 21:11Speaker 2: a big AFC title game this weekend, Hey, that's great
- 21:14Speaker 2: news from the coach regarding val Tonight, Devon, Taves, and Landy.
- 21:18Speaker 2: They're all doing good. Now Landy a get more serious injury.
- 21:22Speaker 2: But Kivy Ronta's you really close could play Friday? Sounds
- 21:25Speaker 2: like Taves could be an option for Sunday in Toronto
- 21:28Speaker 2: and on the Roadie's That's just that's really good news.
- 21:32Speaker 3: Kter it is And if you missed any of that
- 21:35Speaker 3: chat with Jared Bennary, it will be on the podcast
- 21:37Speaker 3: shortly iTunes, Spotify, Emotion, Lombardi and Kane. Here's a question
- 21:41Speaker 3: I got for you because I've heard this brought up repeatedly. Now,
- 21:46Speaker 3: I have been like this my entire life. I just
- 21:49Speaker 3: I've never, never quite understood why people always point back
- 21:53Speaker 3: to stuff like this. How much do you think the
- 21:56Speaker 3: historical context of the Patriots not winning a playoff game
- 22:01Speaker 3: here matters?
- 22:01Speaker 6: For now? My answer is none, not at all.
- 22:06Speaker 3: Okay, I just I've heard people throw that out there
- 22:08Speaker 3: over and over again. I'm like, what what part of
- 22:11Speaker 3: the nineteen eighty six Patriots means anything to right now?
- 22:14Speaker 6: That's what I've never understood. And I said the same thing.
- 22:19Speaker 6: If you remember three years ago when the Nuggets were
- 22:23Speaker 6: playing the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, I'm like,
- 22:25Speaker 6: I don't think Joker has any care of what happened
- 22:28Speaker 6: with Mellow's Nuggets, you know what I mean?
- 22:31Speaker 2: The only thing the bubble stunk. But other than the bubble,
- 22:34Speaker 2: no huh.
- 22:35Speaker 8: It could resonate in the brains of some you know,
- 22:38Speaker 8: Patriot old heads who have experienced it like me with
- 22:42Speaker 8: the Lakers, that you just have to stumble through that
- 22:44Speaker 8: vic through it.
- 22:45Speaker 2: You find me somebody outside the owner, and I guess
- 22:48Speaker 2: we're able to coach. But that was as a player.
- 22:51Speaker 2: There's not a player on that team that has any
- 22:54Speaker 2: sort of vested interest in previous games.
- 22:56Speaker 8: Joshin McDaniels, does.
- 23:00Speaker 2: I said, there's not a player on that team sure
- 23:02Speaker 2: that has any vested interest in what happened in Denver
- 23:06Speaker 2: previously at all.
- 23:07Speaker 8: Yeah. No, I mean that's why I don't disagree with
- 23:10Speaker 8: your point. The point is that that's history has nothing
- 23:14Speaker 8: to do with these two teams. But I think one
- 23:17Speaker 8: of the reasons why that mark exists is because it's
- 23:20Speaker 8: hard to win on the road in the playoffs. Yes,
- 23:22Speaker 8: it's hard now, it's especially hard here in Denver, Colorado.
- 23:26Speaker 6: I think all of that matters.
- 23:28Speaker 3: I think that a young quarterback who, yes, he has
- 23:31Speaker 3: played his first couple of playoff games and played well
- 23:34Speaker 3: at home at home, but he has played well him
- 23:39Speaker 3: going on the road in an environment like this, that.
- 23:43Speaker 6: The hell was I just talking or I just hear?
- 23:46Speaker 4: I think was?
- 23:46Speaker 3: Julian Edelman said he thinks that Mile High Stadium is
- 23:50Speaker 3: top three loudest stadiums in the sport. It pretty much is,
- 23:54Speaker 3: and he goes, it's tough to play there, he goes,
- 23:56Speaker 3: the altitude is very real for those who are unprepared
- 23:59Speaker 3: for them. I think all of those factors for a
- 24:02Speaker 3: young quarterback can matter. By the way, Scott Zolak was
- 24:05Speaker 3: on with Crkman Lindol yesterday kind of talked about how
- 24:08Speaker 3: this young roster in New England's going to handle that.
- 24:11Speaker 7: You know, he's got two big playoff wins at home
- 24:13Speaker 7: over the past two weeks. He's not really phased by
- 24:15Speaker 7: too much. He's gonna really even kill personality. I like
- 24:17Speaker 7: both you guys, you know, just guys, guys that are
- 24:20Speaker 7: happy to play and fun to play, have fun playing
- 24:22Speaker 7: a game. And there's very smart, very smart the way
- 24:25Speaker 7: their approach is. And shame Bo's not playing in this game.
- 24:28Speaker 7: But hey, we had Jared sid him here. Man I
- 24:30Speaker 7: covered Jared. He throws the hell of the ball. I
- 24:32Speaker 7: tried telling people, don't don't fall asleep on this because
- 24:35Speaker 7: you know what to day and it was going to be, oh,
- 24:36Speaker 7: you got the backup quarterback, but I thought he should
- 24:38Speaker 7: have been a starter here ahead of Cam Newton back.
- 24:40Speaker 8: In the day.
- 24:41Speaker 2: Wow, that's pretty that's pretty high praise. A couple of things.
- 24:45Speaker 2: Brett number one, Scott's alike, Vic knows this. When he
- 24:48Speaker 2: played his entire face filled the face mask. Yeah, got
- 24:55Speaker 2: a big face, big face. Number two, Brett, I wish
- 24:58Speaker 2: you could have been here when you were still suckling
- 25:03Speaker 2: or whatever it is you did. And there's a lot
- 25:05Speaker 2: of a lot of young uns out there, Vic who
- 25:07Speaker 2: never got to experience Old Mile High in the postseason.
- 25:11Speaker 2: Where honestly, Vic, you can't tell me that you weren't
- 25:15Speaker 2: afraid that it Maybe maybe some foundational issues would creep
- 25:20Speaker 2: up and maybe we'd have a section or two collapse
- 25:23Speaker 2: or something like that, right, because the place literally, Bret,
- 25:26Speaker 2: It literally shook, yeah, and it was unbelievable. And they
- 25:32Speaker 2: designed the new joint, especially the south stands, to have
- 25:35Speaker 2: that same kind of feel the best you possibly could
- 25:38Speaker 2: while maintaining structural integrity. Right, It's a difficult place to play,
- 25:44Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it.
- 25:45Speaker 3: Can I give you something that I think, even with
- 25:47Speaker 3: a backup quarterback, the Broncos might be more suited to
- 25:52Speaker 3: handle than New England. I don't know the answer, but
- 25:55Speaker 3: they might be. In the last two months, the New
- 25:58Speaker 3: England Patriots have won two games that were one possession
- 26:03Speaker 3: games they've played in three total. They lost a game
- 26:08Speaker 3: to Buffalo thirty five to thirty one that was at
- 26:11Speaker 3: home for them. The other two games that they played
- 26:15Speaker 3: that were one possession that they won was November twenty
- 26:18Speaker 3: third against Cincinnati, where Joe Flacco was the quarterback. The
- 26:23Speaker 3: other was December twenty first at Baltimore, in which Lamar
- 26:28Speaker 3: was hurt midway through the game and Tyler Huntley finished
- 26:31Speaker 3: the second half. How did they handle close game, tough environment,
- 26:37Speaker 3: AFC Championship pressure on the road if this game is
- 26:40Speaker 3: close late despite the fact that the Broncos have always
- 26:43Speaker 3: leaned on Bo Nixon those situations.
- 26:45Speaker 8: Yeah, I was gonna say, your entire arguments defeated by
- 26:47Speaker 8: the fact that the guy that has become the hero
- 26:50Speaker 8: in those moments is not playing.
- 26:51Speaker 3: There's another twenty one guy though, that are pretty well
- 26:53Speaker 3: suited in no scenarios.
- 26:55Speaker 6: Yes, but come on, No, I'm with you, but you
- 26:58Speaker 6: don't know that answer. With Drake May and the Patriots.
- 27:00Speaker 8: We don't know the answer for any of this. Yeah,
- 27:02Speaker 8: you're exactly right, but you can't build the argument on
- 27:05Speaker 8: who's gonna come up clutch in the clutch because your
- 27:08Speaker 8: guy's not playing.
- 27:10Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to be as positive as I can.
- 27:12Speaker 2: We have no idea coming down our own home. Stretcher
- 27:15Speaker 2: VIC toward the weekend and my nemesis texted in said, look,
- 27:20Speaker 2: I lean on you for upbeat. You know, make me
- 27:24Speaker 2: feel like they can win type of stuff. And I'm like, okay, Loretta,
- 27:27Speaker 2: whatever you say, anything I can do for you, Loretta,
- 27:30Speaker 2: whatever it is you need, fine, I'll be I'll be
- 27:34Speaker 2: your your your squire. But I look at it. How
- 27:39Speaker 2: good is the Patriots defense playing right now?
- 27:41Speaker 8: Really good good?
- 27:43Speaker 2: Not only good in the regular season, but how good
- 27:44Speaker 2: have they been in the postseason?
- 27:45Speaker 8: They've been stout good.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Yeah, and okay great. Stidham is twenty nine years old,
- 27:51Speaker 2: Drake May is not. Do you think they're equal quarterbacks
- 27:55Speaker 2: at this point?
- 27:56Speaker 3: No, New England has the advantage there, do dude, Drake
- 28:01Speaker 3: may Is gonna finish like second in the MVP vote.
- 28:03Speaker 6: Yeah, they have the advantage.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Yes. Oh, I'm surprised you said that. Why because well, look,
- 28:11Speaker 2: the guy can make the throws. I'm gonna be believing
- 28:14Speaker 2: on I guess believing Insteady. The more this week goes on,
- 28:19Speaker 2: the more I really get down and dirty with everything.
- 28:22Speaker 2: The way the Broncos just seem like right now they
- 28:26Speaker 2: are on a magical quest that things are falling their way.
- 28:31Speaker 2: I mean to have the Buffalo Bills turn the ball
- 28:34Speaker 2: over five times in a divisional playoff, five times you
- 28:41Speaker 2: escape by the skin of your teeth thirty three to
- 28:44Speaker 2: thirty despite getting five turnovers. Yeah, it's almost like they've
- 28:49Speaker 2: got a horseshoe right now and it's they're destined to
- 28:53Speaker 2: get it done.
- 28:53Speaker 3: I don't you know what's funny most I don't think
- 28:55Speaker 3: that's insulting, and I know you didn't mean it that way,
- 28:57Speaker 3: but just to say this out loud, because I've heard
- 29:00Speaker 3: Broncos fans push back on this, there is no question, guys,
- 29:03Speaker 3: you have been lucky this year.
- 29:05Speaker 6: It doesn't mean you weren't good, but you have had luck.
- 29:09Speaker 8: I said the.
- 29:09Speaker 3: Exact same thing with the Kansas City Chiefs last season
- 29:12Speaker 3: when they were like twelve and zero one.
- 29:14Speaker 2: Score crashing down in the Super Bowl.
- 29:17Speaker 3: But yeah, but I'm like, if you have this kind
- 29:20Speaker 3: of record in close games, there is no question that
- 29:24Speaker 3: you have been lucky throughout the course of the year.
- 29:26Speaker 3: I think the same thing has happened with the Broncos.
- 29:28Speaker 3: The way that they've won does take luck. It does
- 29:33Speaker 3: you know what's lucky? The I guess consensus right now,
- 29:38Speaker 3: best quarterback on the planet Josh Allen missing Dawson Knox
- 29:42Speaker 3: for a walk in touchdown with ten seconds left in
- 29:45Speaker 3: the game that would have won pretty lucky, and he's
- 29:48Speaker 3: just pretty open and he misses.
- 29:50Speaker 8: Did you hear, by the way? Terry Pagoula, the owner
- 29:52Speaker 8: of the Bills, was asked why he made the move
- 29:55Speaker 8: and huh.
- 29:57Speaker 6: Sorry, go ahead, go ahead. No, I'm gonna back you
- 30:00Speaker 6: up with a quote that I heard from him.
- 30:02Speaker 8: Yes, go ahead. He said he made the move to
- 30:04Speaker 8: fire McDermott. Why based on the results of the Broncos
- 30:08Speaker 8: Bills game on Saturday. He said, that's the one that
- 30:12Speaker 8: did it.
- 30:12Speaker 6: You can't say that, I don't think, by the way,
- 30:15Speaker 6: you know.
- 30:16Speaker 3: Steve Bishatti, the owner of the Baltimore Ravens, Huh. When
- 30:19Speaker 3: he was asked the same thing, would you have fired
- 30:21Speaker 3: Hardball had they beat the Steelers? He goes in two
- 30:24Speaker 3: weeks like, I don't think you can just base that
- 30:28Speaker 3: decision off of what if Dawson Knox catches the football,
- 30:32Speaker 3: He's still your coach next year?
- 30:34Speaker 6: Like that doesn't make sense to me. But do you
- 30:36Speaker 6: hear what else?
- 30:37Speaker 1: He said?
- 30:37Speaker 6: Vic I've said this.
- 30:41Speaker 3: Older owners need to be very careful when they're in
- 30:44Speaker 3: front of a microphone because they're rich and they're billionaires
- 30:47Speaker 3: and they just don't care what comes out. Like we
- 30:50Speaker 3: said this with Jerry Jones right when he was talking
- 30:52Speaker 3: he's talking about Brian Schottenheimer.
- 30:55Speaker 6: I'm must being insane person high this man.
- 30:58Speaker 2: You don't think that was That's the biggest risk, guy,
- 31:01Speaker 2: I've ever taken. We'll go out here to my ride.
- 31:04Speaker 2: It's the biggest risk my life has.
- 31:10Speaker 3: Here's what Terry Pagola said. Yeah, the coaching staff pushed
- 31:17Speaker 3: for key On Coleman. He was not Brandon Bean's choice.
- 31:22Speaker 3: Brandon was just being a team player. Coleman's a second
- 31:25Speaker 3: year wide out on your roster and will be there
- 31:28Speaker 3: for a while. You can't talk about a player like
- 31:31Speaker 3: that who's on the roster.
- 31:33Speaker 8: You can't do that. Well, he's again, what do you
- 31:36Speaker 8: mean the coaching staff pushed for Coleman.
- 31:38Speaker 9: They wanted the drafted draft they wanted, and that was
- 31:43Speaker 9: not It's like when the Bills owner Haslam said I
- 31:47Speaker 9: wouldn't have drafted Chador.
- 31:49Speaker 6: That was all on Andrew.
- 31:50Speaker 2: It was also the coaching staff that wanted to trade
- 31:53Speaker 2: stuff on digs Away, not necessarily Bean, right, but Bean
- 31:58Speaker 2: does it because he's being quote eighteen guy, It's the
- 32:01Speaker 2: biggest risk I've ever taken. Right here, you know what
- 32:05Speaker 2: some guy at the altar.
- 32:06Speaker 3: I've been six feet deep in an oil rigging. This
- 32:08Speaker 3: man is the crasiest.
- 32:10Speaker 2: Or some girl the altar. It's the biggest risk guy
- 32:12Speaker 2: ever taking my tire. Lie right here smiles and glory hoes. Okay, Also,
- 32:18Speaker 2: did you see you know Pegoula's kid is a pretty
- 32:22Speaker 2: good tennis player. You're aware of that.
- 32:24Speaker 8: Yeah, she's down at the Aussie Open right now.
- 32:26Speaker 2: She's kicking.
- 32:26Speaker 8: But did what she did into the camera?
- 32:29Speaker 2: So Jesse Pela one of her match a couple of
- 32:33Speaker 2: days ago. You know tennis players signed the lens of
- 32:36Speaker 2: the camera. Yes, she signs Jesse Pecula and puts it
- 32:40Speaker 2: was a catch.
- 32:44Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
- 32:45Speaker 8: Well, I mean she's the future owner of the team.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Well theoretically, I mean, you know, she's a pretty good
- 32:52Speaker 2: tennis player.
- 32:52Speaker 8: To whatever.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Whatever.
- 32:59Speaker 8: I have something that I need to get off my
- 33:01Speaker 8: chest as well, and we'll save it for the next segment.
- 33:04Speaker 8: It's it pains me when I hear this stuff and
- 33:09Speaker 8: it makes me laugh. New England and Boston fans have
- 33:17Speaker 8: gone to a new luw to rip on Denver and
- 33:20Speaker 8: this one amazes me. And we have history to prove
- 33:22Speaker 8: what the Denver Broncos are doing with their ticket sales
- 33:26Speaker 8: is the right thing to do. And I'll tell you why,
- 33:28Speaker 8: exactly why, because it years ago. Moser is going to
- 33:32Speaker 8: remember years ago it was the worst case scenario with
- 33:35Speaker 8: how they sold tickets.
- 33:36Speaker 2: It was awful.
- 33:38Speaker 6: Tomorrow's the Nuggets ticket Thursday.
- 33:40Speaker 3: Keywords all day on the twenties to win tickets to
- 33:43Speaker 3: see the Nuggets. It's powered by the will Height Law Firm,
- 33:45Speaker 3: giving you the chance to win big on and off
- 33:48Speaker 3: the court. Visit will Heightwinds dot Com.
- 33:50Speaker 10: Back after this, people living in competition, have a piece
- 33:58Speaker 10: of my backus drum big.
- 34:03Speaker 4: No vig.
- 34:04Speaker 6: This is a good but this is Boston. Boston's okay.
- 34:06Speaker 8: I hate Boston, you hate it with all. Let me
- 34:10Speaker 8: tell you something. Memories of going out at night in
- 34:13Speaker 8: the campus Notre Dame. Everybody drinking beer left and right,
- 34:18Speaker 8: and I took a sip of an old beer and
- 34:20Speaker 8: there was chewing tobacco left over in it, and I'll
- 34:22Speaker 8: never forget it. Boston was playing at the time. I'll
- 34:24Speaker 8: never like this song.
- 34:25Speaker 6: It is funny, you know what.
- 34:26Speaker 3: I get into a really big, bad car, accdent on
- 34:28Speaker 3: a sixteen to Hotel California and hear the song exactly.
- 34:33Speaker 8: I will never want to hear Boston again for the
- 34:34Speaker 8: rest of my life.
- 34:35Speaker 6: I get that.
- 34:36Speaker 8: And I don't like Boston and begin with or the fans. Sorry,
- 34:41Speaker 8: if you're from Boston, my apologies with all due respect,
- 34:44Speaker 8: I love you personally.
- 34:45Speaker 2: You know I got a I don't like your fandom.
- 34:47Speaker 2: I gotta be thankful a little bit. You realize that
- 34:50Speaker 2: my mother say it, say what say God, God rest
- 34:59Speaker 2: your soul, gives some respect.
- 35:02Speaker 3: I was expecting some sort of joke on near behalf
- 35:05Speaker 3: to come there.
- 35:05Speaker 6: That's fine.
- 35:06Speaker 2: My mom's side of the family. Everybody's from Boston. She
- 35:11Speaker 2: was born in Boston.
- 35:13Speaker 8: Then get this, really unfortunate.
- 35:14Speaker 2: She was born in Boston, had a little you know
- 35:16Speaker 2: time there, you know, little kid. Then she moved to Philadelphia.
- 35:20Speaker 8: Oh double.
- 35:24Speaker 2: Then thank god they vacated Philly and came to California.
- 35:30Speaker 2: Because imagine, imagin layer of pain right there. Imagine if
- 35:34Speaker 2: my debt, I mean, my late mother stayed in Boston
- 35:39Speaker 2: or Philly and you have.
- 35:41Speaker 9: An accent, yes, Boston Philly accent, Boston Philly accent.
- 35:47Speaker 2: She never lost it.
- 35:48Speaker 6: So she she threw like chowda like that.
- 35:51Speaker 2: Not that bad. No, but she would say orange, like
- 35:55Speaker 2: if you're talking about like an orange orange. Uh. She
- 35:59Speaker 2: wasn't a pocket, but she kind of got like that
- 36:01Speaker 2: a little bit, you know what I mean.
- 36:03Speaker 9: She had these certain words where the it would snake
- 36:06Speaker 9: out one hundred percent. Yeah, anyway, I dodged that big time,
- 36:10Speaker 9: and I'm thankful for that. So Mom, God rust your soul,
- 36:13Speaker 9: bless you, love you, thanks for moving.
- 36:16Speaker 8: So here's another reason why I don't like Boston anything
- 36:19Speaker 8: about it, and I'm sorry. Two thousand and seven, the
- 36:24Speaker 8: greatest year in Rockies history. Colorado Rockies made it to
- 36:28Speaker 8: the World Freaking Series. They would play the Boston Red Sox,
- 36:34Speaker 8: who humbled the Rockies and all of our hopes and
- 36:37Speaker 8: dreams by sweeping the Rockies. But that will forever be
- 36:40Speaker 8: known as most likely the biggest ticket debacle in Colorado
- 36:46Speaker 8: ticket history. Tickets for that series were sold online and
- 36:55Speaker 8: Boston fans were snapping up tickets left and right. Do
- 37:00Speaker 8: you remember this motion?
- 37:01Speaker 2: One thousand percent for.
- 37:06Speaker 8: Rockies fans who reside in Colorado, they couldn't get tickets
- 37:10Speaker 8: to that series. We're trying to fight off people from
- 37:14Speaker 8: New England.
- 37:15Speaker 2: It was brett. It was a debacle and Rockies fans
- 37:21Speaker 2: were fuming, and they should have been.
- 37:24Speaker 8: Very much so, to the point where Game four that series,
- 37:28Speaker 8: after they swept the Rockies. Unfortunately, I was at the game.
- 37:32Speaker 8: There was an assemblage of Roston Red Sox fans at
- 37:36Speaker 8: cors Field celebrating in the championship, and there must have
- 37:40Speaker 8: been three to five thousand of them just sitting there
- 37:44Speaker 8: over the diamond. They all got to the lower level
- 37:46Speaker 8: celebrating with their team and made me sick to my stomach,
- 37:52Speaker 8: sick like last night the Lakers fans sick to my stomach.
- 37:56Speaker 8: So the Broncos did what every team is doing now.
- 37:58Speaker 8: It's a smart thing to do with these tickets. This
- 38:01Speaker 8: week they have geo fenced the ticket policy where you
- 38:05Speaker 8: have to reside in the Colorado area this region to
- 38:10Speaker 8: purchase tickets whatever tickets are available, because I mean sold
- 38:14Speaker 8: now technically, and it's got Boston fans all riled up
- 38:18Speaker 8: in barstool, right, Barstools supposed to be a national publication
- 38:22Speaker 8: and national here's a national sports They wrote a I
- 38:27Speaker 8: don't know if it's scathing, just an off the wall
- 38:30Speaker 8: commentary about how shameful the Denver people are for doing this.
- 38:34Speaker 8: Get the hell out of here. Everybody knows what what
- 38:37Speaker 8: is barstool. Barstool is one hundred percent Boston, correct, Dave, Yeah,
- 38:41Speaker 8: it's one hundred percent Get the hell out of here.
- 38:44Speaker 8: All these different barstool places left and right. You're all
- 38:47Speaker 8: you know, you're all beholding to Boston, is what you are.
- 38:51Speaker 8: You're all beholding the Boston pretty much.
- 38:53Speaker 2: They all been. They need to Boston. That's correct, you.
- 38:55Speaker 6: Know, just to Devil's advocate this thing.
- 38:59Speaker 3: I largely there is a part of me though, that's like, hey, man,
- 39:02Speaker 3: if somebody's willing to pay top price for a ticket,
- 39:04Speaker 3: why can't they just go get the ticket?
- 39:08Speaker 8: Well, because this is in Denver, Colorado the game, I understand,
- 39:12Speaker 8: and if people in Denver, Colorado they should get first
- 39:14Speaker 8: DIBs at those tickets.
- 39:15Speaker 3: I agree they should get first DIBs. Now does that
- 39:19Speaker 3: include aftermarket price? Like, I guess what I'm asking is
- 39:23Speaker 3: it shows the first DIBs thing is one. But I've
- 39:29Speaker 3: seen examples of is it colleges that say you're not
- 39:33Speaker 3: allowed to sell your tickets to the opposing team's fan
- 39:36Speaker 3: base or something like that. We've seen that happen before,
- 39:38Speaker 3: And part of me is like, well, doesn't it speak
- 39:40Speaker 3: to like how ravage your fan base and and oh
- 39:44Speaker 3: you don't get.
- 39:44Speaker 8: There out of here with these Boston people thinking that
- 39:46Speaker 8: they are owed something like, oh, how would Denver? Why
- 39:48Speaker 8: would Denver?
- 39:49Speaker 2: Shut us? Shut up?
- 39:50Speaker 8: This is Denver. You know what you want? You want tickets?
- 39:53Speaker 8: Beat the Raiders because that's what costs you. Yeah, home field.
- 39:57Speaker 6: I was gonna say, you want, you want first DIBs
- 39:59Speaker 6: at those? Well, then you should have finished me.
- 40:00Speaker 8: I have zero, zero sympathy when the Rockies during that run.
- 40:05Speaker 8: When the Rockies would travel on the road during the playoffs,
- 40:07Speaker 8: I remember going to a road playoff game in Philly
- 40:11Speaker 8: and I said, oh, I can't wait to see how
- 40:13Speaker 8: many Rockies fans are here. I remember walking around the
- 40:16Speaker 8: entire stadium. I couldn't identify another fan that's a Rockies fan.
- 40:20Speaker 8: You'd be dead. If you showed up in Philly with
- 40:23Speaker 8: Rockies gear, you can be assaulted.
- 40:25Speaker 2: You don't think the Red Sox put a geofence around
- 40:28Speaker 2: their stuff for Yankees fans.
- 40:31Speaker 6: I honestly don't know.
- 40:32Speaker 2: I'm sure they probably do.
- 40:36Speaker 8: I'm told you cannot geofence the secondary market. That's open,
- 40:39Speaker 8: that's fair game. It's the very way. Yeah, the secondary
- 40:42Speaker 8: market is fair game. If you want to sell your tickets,
- 40:44Speaker 8: if you want to, that's fine. It's the very way.
- 40:47Speaker 8: One of d Mac's best friends from growing up, I
- 40:50Speaker 8: heard the story on this show yesterday from Boston, a
- 40:53Speaker 8: huge New England Patriots fan bought six tickets in the
- 40:57Speaker 8: tenth row.
- 40:59Speaker 2: Oh gosh, hey, Vic, what was the Patriot fandom like?
- 41:05Speaker 2: What was the representation for the twenty fifteen AFC Championship?
- 41:12Speaker 8: It wasn't nearly what It was the most embarrassing moment
- 41:15Speaker 8: for Broncos.
- 41:16Speaker 2: Let me say it. It was the Steelers game.
- 41:19Speaker 8: It was the most embarrassing day as a Broncos fan
- 41:22Speaker 8: I can remember. But I mean even when I say embarrassing,
- 41:25Speaker 8: not from the player's perspective, from a stadium output perspective.
- 41:29Speaker 8: Amount of terrible towels in that stadium for the two
- 41:34Speaker 8: thousand AFC championship we're.
- 41:36Speaker 2: Talking about two thousand and four, Well, it was two thousand.
- 41:39Speaker 8: And five when the game was played, right right history
- 41:42Speaker 8: in honor of the never to see all those towels
- 41:45Speaker 8: assembled at that stadium that day, disgusting.
- 41:48Speaker 2: Right them there with my season tickets, my old season was.
- 41:51Speaker 6: That the the Steelers won the Super Bowl.
- 41:52Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah, my old season tickets that I used
- 41:55Speaker 2: to have to the Broncos all back in the day,
- 41:59Speaker 2: and I'm there. I can't believe the number of terrible
- 42:03Speaker 2: towels in that joint. I mean, yellow helicopter all over
- 42:07Speaker 2: your face. It wasn't fun, it wasn't pretty. I hated it.
- 42:11Speaker 2: So I'm down with this, vic, I'm completely down with it.
- 42:13Speaker 8: Well and listen, there's not much the teams can do
- 42:16Speaker 8: about it. The secondary market's the secondary market. If somebody
- 42:18Speaker 8: wants to go on Facebook marketplace, or if somebody wants
- 42:20Speaker 8: to open up an ad, say I'm selling sixth row
- 42:24Speaker 8: for a thousand bucks as pop, there's nothing you can
- 42:26Speaker 8: do about it. I mean, the hometown team. You've sold
- 42:30Speaker 8: the tickets, they're done. You've got your revenue. After that,
- 42:34Speaker 8: there's nothing you can do. People have had their.
- 42:35Speaker 2: Season tickets taken away because they put it on the
- 42:38Speaker 2: second get right.
- 42:39Speaker 8: Yes, yes, so I don't know how they do about it,
- 42:41Speaker 8: but I have zero sympathy for Boston fans. Barstools. Oh
- 42:46Speaker 8: my god, I can't believe Denver's doing this to a.
- 42:48Speaker 6: Shut up.
- 42:50Speaker 8: Out of here. It's a home you know what home
- 42:53Speaker 8: field advantage should matter. Again, I went to Philly for
- 42:57Speaker 8: that Rockies game, and if I had pulled that up
- 43:00Speaker 8: Hockey's hat, I'd be dead. That's the way it should be.
- 43:04Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 43:05Speaker 3: By the way, we were just talking about but we
- 43:08Speaker 3: were just talking about Keon Coleman. I just saw he's
- 43:10Speaker 3: on this commercial was selling fanatics NFL gear and just
- 43:16Speaker 3: the thought that their owner was like, look the coach
- 43:20Speaker 3: I just fired drafted.
- 43:21Speaker 6: That guy has nothing to do with us anyway.
- 43:23Speaker 8: Uh two eight one two Uh offers his point. I
- 43:27Speaker 8: was at both those games, this guy says, I was
- 43:30Speaker 8: at the AFC Championship game, the one I mentioned in
- 43:32Speaker 8: game four that World Series. Both were embarrassing. Yes, embarrassing
- 43:35Speaker 8: because you lost both games. But to add injury to
- 43:39Speaker 8: insults at insult to injury and which one is insult
- 43:42Speaker 8: to injury? Yeah, the insult was the amount of opposing fans.
- 43:48Speaker 3: Reminder, game tonight seven o'clock pregame coverage is six thirty.
- 43:51Speaker 3: It's powered by Ramos Law and with that whatever.
- 43:56Speaker 1: It's the Johnson Auto Plaza cheese to the game. Plaza
- 44:01Speaker 1: experienced the power of the Plaza where they had the
- 44:03Speaker 1: keys to performance in style with Ram Jeep, Chevy, Pwick
- 44:06Speaker 1: and GMC and a huge selection if hughesed all in
- 44:08Speaker 1: one place, here's Molater, Lombardi and King.
- 44:12Speaker 6: Seven o'clock to night. Ducks and Avs muge.
- 44:15Speaker 2: Well, the Ducks, I tell you what they had lost
- 44:18Speaker 2: what I guess it was twelve of thirteen games, but
- 44:21Speaker 2: they lost nine in a row and things were absolutely
- 44:24Speaker 2: horrible for them. They've come back, they've they've rided their
- 44:28Speaker 2: ship a little bit and they've now won four in
- 44:31Speaker 2: a row. So they're playing better hockey than they did before.
- 44:34Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what's interesting. Overall, the Ducks give
- 44:37Speaker 2: up a lot of goals. They give up three point
- 44:40Speaker 2: six goals per game. Would you consider that a lot?
- 44:43Speaker 6: It's a lot.
- 44:44Speaker 2: Absolutely. If you're the Colorado Avalanche, here's what you do.
- 44:48Speaker 2: And by the way, the Ducks penalty kill is not great.
- 44:51Speaker 2: If you're the Colorado Avalanche, you come on and by
- 44:53Speaker 2: the way, Ducks can score, but you can outscore this team.
- 44:56Speaker 2: Jared Bednar's big thing, the big thing he said about
- 45:00Speaker 2: the way the Avs bounced back was taking care of
- 45:03Speaker 2: your own end first, right, take care of your own
- 45:05Speaker 2: in first, and counterattack backcheck the puck very very well,
- 45:09Speaker 2: and you're gonna be in very good shape when you
- 45:11Speaker 2: get power play opportunities. Take advantage of it against this
- 45:14Speaker 2: Ducks team that gives up a ton of goals. Big
- 45:17Speaker 2: valves back in the lineup tonight, and I would not
- 45:19Speaker 2: mind seeing Number thirteen figure into some scoring. He hasn't
- 45:22Speaker 2: scored a goal since New Year's Eves hat trick. Back check,
- 45:26Speaker 2: take care of your own zone. You're good to win
- 45:28Speaker 2: the game.
- 45:29Speaker 8: Here's the baby be there?
- 45:31Speaker 2: Uh the bait. I don't know. I'm not the baby's parent,
- 45:34Speaker 2: but I'm gonna I'm gonna guess baby.
- 45:36Speaker 8: Uh.
- 45:36Speaker 6: By the way, here's just a little side note to it.
- 45:39Speaker 3: The last time, or the first time this year, the
- 45:41Speaker 3: Avs played against Sanaheim. If you remember, they were riding
- 45:44Speaker 3: a seven game win streak going into it.
- 45:46Speaker 6: They lost to the Avs four to one.
- 45:48Speaker 3: This is their second longest win streak of the year
- 45:50Speaker 3: at four games, and the Avs are looking to do
- 45:52Speaker 3: the same.
- 45:53Speaker 2: The Avs are a large, large favorite tonight, by the way,
- 45:56Speaker 2: a large favorite.
- 45:57Speaker 6: So you can hear that game right here.
- 45:58Speaker 3: Altitude Sports Radio ninety five with pregame at six thirty
- 46:03Speaker 3: powered by ramas law.
- 46:05Speaker 2: The penalty killer is twenty fifth in the league.
- 46:09Speaker 3: For the Ducks, hold on please sorry power the keys
- 46:12Speaker 3: to the game is powered by Johnson on applause. He gets
- 46:14Speaker 3: election service and incredible savings. A ramjep, Chevy, Bulck, and
- 46:16Speaker 3: gmc all at one location experienced the power of the
- 46:19Speaker 3: applaza that Johnson on aplasita go ahead.
- 46:20Speaker 2: Much they are. The Ducks are also beginning a five
- 46:22Speaker 2: game road trip after they leave Denver. They're going to
- 46:25Speaker 2: play in Canada, play I think Winnipeg and Calgary and
- 46:28Speaker 2: Edmonton and Van and so on and so forth. And
- 46:31Speaker 2: both their goalies have a goals against average above three
- 46:34Speaker 2: in a safe percentage below nine hundred. You should pound
- 46:38Speaker 2: those guys. Pound them there you go, and pound.
- 46:44Speaker 6: And pound and pound.
- 46:48Speaker 2: And here's the thing, bick, bick, don't stop pounding.
- 46:53Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, game tonight, seven o'clock aves in all and
