• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Let's talk hockey, my friend, before we get to the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: silly stuff Panthers rolled in game three. Man, Games one
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and two could not have been better, right, we're talking
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to this as an epics Dalley Cup file in game three,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: so much for that shit. Panthers just kicked their ass
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: off the races. Ste Skinner gets chased in the third
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Florida powery specifically three for eleven and a game that
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: got awfully nasty.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: The third praise. We'll talk undisciplined play here JD.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Edmonton took twenty one penalties, which is tied for the
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: second most by one team in a Cup final game.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: The two teams combined for one hundred and forty penalty minutes,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: fourth most in a.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Cup final game.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming you didn't see this coming as far as
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: far as a one sided game, but after two tight
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: games like that, sometimes abrot happens.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: What do you make of the physicality, Well.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: When you look at it, it's it's Edmonton finally getting
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: frustrated or they've been getting it's just boiling over, and
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: it's it's kind of classic Florida. People try to out Florida,
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: the Florida Panthers, and you can't do it. They're like
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: the younger brother that just kind of poke, say hey, hey,
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: what are you doing, Like, come on, give me the remote,
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Give me the remote, Give me the remote. And then
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden you turn around smack them in
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: the head and they go, ah, oh, I'm not doing anything,
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: And mom and dad yell at you, which is the
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: ref's giving you penalties.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Excellent analogy, Thank you very much.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: And it's just funny because you know it's it's I'm
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: more of the air, and it'd be funny to you know,
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: ask anybody that played back in the day. It's if
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: you're gonna kind of take your pound and flash show
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: to speak. And you know, at the end of the
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: game they start going after Florida. But like, if you're
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: gonna do it, just do it all the way, like
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: go get take a suspension or something, because if you're
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: gonna kind of slash a guy, you know, I vander
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: Kain slashes Cardiver Hagen kind in the face a little
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: bit like a little love tap gets kicked out, and
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: like if you're gonna get kicked out, make sure there's
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: some teeth falling out, make sure that you make it worthwhile.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Because when you're going and you're just kind of cross
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: checking in the arm and they're obviously not gonna engage you,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: they're just you're they're up six to one, they're just
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: kinda they're just gonna kind of float through. And now
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: they got you mentally, and you know, the Edmonton Oilers
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: just kind of man they just came undone completely and
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: I think, listen, you have you have the chance to reset.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: It's one game and it's amazing how the narrative changes.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: But that was just a bad games start to finish
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: for the Edmontonals and they could not find their footing
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: and then they just were little bitches.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and to your point of how the narrative changes,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: it's funny how it's gone from like, oh my god,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: those two games are so tight, this is going six
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: probably seven.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Now it's it could always be done in five.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And that's where it gets interesting because I say to myself,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: j Dy, well, the others can't possibly be worse. They
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: were dominated. I think Skinner's back in that. I do
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: think he bounces back. But this Game four is truly
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: must win because you lose this game. I know you
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: still have two games at home in Games five and
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: game seven, but you're not gonna win.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Three straight against the defanning Steley Cup champions. This is
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: truly a must winning Game four for the Olders.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I don't think they can do what they
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: did last year coming back from down three to nothing
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: and bringing it to seven. It's just a lot of
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: hockey and it's tough to everything needs to work that way.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: This is it for them in the sense of, like
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: this is a big game. I think they wanted to
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: come back and split. You know, Stuart Skinner, what six
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: to zero in games game fours and he's just lights
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: out goals against under one point three. He's he's so
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: dialed in in game fours, and this team is. And
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: I think this team kind of figures, you know, teams
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: out slowly but surely, and I expect their best effort
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: in game four. And I expect you know, Connor and
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Leon who kind of been a little bit quiet, we're
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: a little bit quiet last game and we're't able to
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: generate much.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I think they're gonna be flying.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: I think there's gonna need to be some changes on
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: the defensive side, on the decor. But yeah, this should
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: be a desperate, urgent team because you know, going back
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: to Edmonton especially. The thing to remember too is like
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: this game four and five one one day in between.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: It's a travel day.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: So it is going to be a difficult game for
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: guys to kind of bounce back from. And it's gonna
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: be tough, I think physically and mentally to stay locked
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: in even though so for me, I'm like, looking at Edmonton,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: we win this game, We're flying back to Edmonton, go
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: one day. Home is where the heart is. You know,
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: we'll have the mental edge and you know we can
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: quickly be up three to two in the series and
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: be in the driver's seats. So but it starts with
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: this game starts at game four.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: No doubt about. It's your point. But Skipper how Skinner?
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Excuse me, Kimpert, Yeah, give a Hipper this deal. Let's
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: call it Skipper Skinner five and zero in game four
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: with two shutouts, so he's been at his best in
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: those game forts it's always seems so pivotal. Quick thought
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: of Marshan first player in hockey history scoring overtime Golden
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Stanley come filed, then scoring in the next game in
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: the opening minute, also becomes the oldest player at age
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: thirty seven, to scoring the first three games of a final.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: But I want to get to silly stuff, which is
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Paul Maurice, who's always a great quote even in game.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I mean normally, yeah, some guys postgame, they're good in game. No,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Greig poppitsrmally they're very serious guys. He's cracking wise with
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Jackie Redman, friend of the show here who told us
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: when we asked you, who's your favorite coach?
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Dodger said, palm Maras is the best.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: In an in game interview, when Redmand brought up Bennett's
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: upcoming free agency.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: To about Sam Bennett, pal Marie said, I don't think.
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: His agent's gonna have to work that hard this summer.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: But I'll move on a horrible altitude. I think he's
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: got beavonic player.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: I see what you're doing, the nine fever.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: He's got a whole bunch of things.
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: We're not sure he can be cured.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: Play the game, Paul, play the game.
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: Thank you for.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: This dangy dangy fever to Dang.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: You are sipt Danang all the place here. What you
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: mean having some fun during the game?
• 6:15
  Speaker 7: What's Danang fever?
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: That's uh topic. I got this, but I got this
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: booty sweat I got back in d Nang.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: I said, it's definitely a Vietnam thing.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: I think Robert Williams too good morying Vietnam. Dang Yeah,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: uh yeah. Why wouldn't you say every bad thing about
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Sam Benning and the media the way he's played. I
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: think he's like, what the odds for him to win
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: kan smythe are like down to like plus one seventy five.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He was like fifteen thousand or thirty thousand at the
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: start of these playoffs, and we talked about it on
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the network, where like, this guy should be in the
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: consideration for the con smythe easily the way you know,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: set set the record NHL history most roade goals. I
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: mean that shift of his uh to score that goal,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: or he goes in absolutely truck sticks Pod Coles and
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: truck sticks. Klingberg then almost takes out Drysdal and then
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: a shot out of a fucking cannon on the breakaway
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: and goes, eh, backhand, forehand, where's the jackstrap.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: It's in the back of the net.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Danang, danang, danangh But no, I think, uh, you know,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: Paul Maurice is very smart.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: He's become this kind of quote machine.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: Yea, I feel like he's got the he's got a
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: joke writer in the back. That's right and stuff for
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: him because everything seems way too quick and quippy for
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: it to be legitimate. But yeah, that was pretty good.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: He's just like, yeah, he's a great guy. Does all
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: the right things. And then Jackie's like, his agent's gonna
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: really be uh really be excited, and he's like, no
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: bad guy, danang fever. Now I'm saying it, dang dang faver,
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: and you got me all fucked up.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: But I love the idea of him having a show Grier.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: That's great. These guys making dollars a day, give me
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: some good quotes. I got a guy.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: I bet you imagine I have a punch up guy
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: as you're going to do these coaches interviews.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I love that idea, great concept.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: They got an ifp guys some of the writers from
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Fould feeding me jokes, that would be amazing.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: If Palmers seriously had a joke writer, it'd be so good.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Coming up next Kelly Chase, an absolute fighter both on
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the ice and off. We're talking with Chaser about his
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: battles coming up next right here on NHL inscripted right
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: after this. Our next guest was signed in nineteen eighty
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: eight by the Saint Louis Blues as.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: An undrafted free agent.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Went on to play four hundred and fifteen NHL games
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: for the Blues, Whalers and Maple Leafs during his eleven
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: seasons in the NHL, he was regarded as one of
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the toughest and most respected people in the game, and
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: that sentiment has not changed it all since he retired.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: He was the Pride of Porcupine playing Saskatchewan Kelly Chase Chaser.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: It is great to see how are I, my friend?
• 9:03
  Speaker 8: I'm doing I'm doing great. But you know, the amount
• 9:06
  Speaker 8: of times you guys changed this podcast and everything I
• 9:08
  Speaker 8: thought I was going on with two Hall of Famers,
• 9:10
  Speaker 8: I'm gonna get you guys were doing. I'm like, who
• 9:13
  Speaker 8: are these guys anyway? Amount of times they've changed.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: I think that's important, you know, have The answer is no,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: But you're right. We cause a lot of chaos.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: We're gonna get to the hockey to sect can I
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: But of course everyone's following you and your health of
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: these last few years.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Give us an up. How you feel right now?
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Not bad?
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: I I've got.
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: A a little bit of a setback. I got the
• 9:36
  Speaker 8: graph host disease, which is called it's called graph host GVHD,
• 9:40
  Speaker 8: which is sort of a little bit of a It's
• 9:43
  Speaker 8: where your stomach kind of fights the enzymes that your
• 9:45
  Speaker 8: brother had, My brother and I had. He was the
• 9:48
  Speaker 8: transplant for me, he was one hundred percent match. So
• 9:53
  Speaker 8: I've lost a lot of weight, which I kind of
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: joke because that some people are going on a zempic.
• 9:57
  Speaker 8: I went with chemo and lost you know, sixty five
• 10:02
  Speaker 8: or seventy pounds here. But I'm starting to come out
• 10:05
  Speaker 8: of it a little bit now. I am at the
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: hospital now, but I but again, it was one of
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: those things where.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 10:13
  Speaker 8: The chemo and everything in the in the in the
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: clinical trial drug that I went that I needed to
• 10:18
  Speaker 8: combat the leukemia has worked. So from a cancer perspective,
• 10:24
  Speaker 8: it seems like it's all gone and it's in remission,
• 10:26
  Speaker 8: which is a blessing.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 10:27
  Speaker 8: The GVHD still there, so uh, we're still working through
• 10:32
  Speaker 8: that and trying to get myself so I'm not in
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: a situation where I can't swallow or I can't eat
• 10:40
  Speaker 8: or whatever, and uh and and so we're still.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Having to work through that. It's work in progress right now.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: But I feel pretty good.
• 10:47
  Speaker 8: And I've been treated great here at Sitement Cancer Institute.
• 10:50
  Speaker 8: So just keep batting and and hopefully we keep going down.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: The right path.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: You're You're a tough bastard man and an inspiration and
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I love hearing that you got some good, good, positive news.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: And you know, we spoke with Pat Maroon last week.
• 11:06
  Speaker 9: And I can see why all this outreach for him
• 11:09
  Speaker 9: with his charity events and everyone that comes and the
• 11:12
  Speaker 9: people that show up, and he deserves it more than
• 11:15
  Speaker 9: anyone because he's he's the one that probably did something
• 11:19
  Speaker 9: for all those people before that, you know, So that's
• 11:23
  Speaker 9: just the kind of guy he is. And you know,
• 11:24
  Speaker 9: hopefully he can keep fighting here and he can battle
• 11:27
  Speaker 9: his way out of this because he is a fighter.
• 11:30
  Speaker 9: And we're all thinking of him, and you know, lots
• 11:32
  Speaker 9: of prayers for him, but you know, he's a fighter though,
• 11:35
  Speaker 9: we all know that, so he'll get through this.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: He told some great stories about you, and you know,
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: talked about why the hockey community is so great and
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: and everybody's been so eager to rush to support you
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: because you know, the resounding thing is everybody says you'd
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: be the first one to be there if anybody needed
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: any help. And what's it mean to you and what
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: do you make of the way that hockey community has
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: supported you so much during this.
• 11:59
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's pretty remarkable. I mean, you get up in
• 12:01
  Speaker 8: the morning and have you know, twenty thirty. Sometimes text messages.
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: It's one thing to know that you have support.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: And I say this a lot.
• 12:11
  Speaker 8: I think a lot of the people in here will
• 12:12
  Speaker 8: make it out of here because they they die a loneliness.
• 12:17
  Speaker 8: And I think in the hockey community, the one thing
• 12:19
  Speaker 8: that we have is this unique brotherhood of people that
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: that have constantly just check in with you. Pat's one
• 12:25
  Speaker 8: of those guys that. You know, Pat was, you know,
• 12:27
  Speaker 8: a young kid that didn't really know the direction he
• 12:29
  Speaker 8: should take. And and I was fortunate enough to I
• 12:33
  Speaker 8: owned a junior team, and I was fortunate enough to
• 12:36
  Speaker 8: be able to bring him to camp and and sort
• 12:38
  Speaker 8: of give him some direction and some guidance because I think,
• 12:41
  Speaker 8: you know, in Saint Louis, there wasn't a lot of that.
• 12:43
  Speaker 8: I think you could it was. It's easy to just
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: fall into a situation in Saint Louis where.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: You know, you don't really know the direction.
• 12:53
  Speaker 8: It's changed quite significantly, and Pat's one of the reasons why.
• 12:56
  Speaker 8: But you know, you'll see the Kit Chuck Boys, Clayton Keller, Brick, Trent,
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: Frederick Logan down, a lot of those guys, you know,
• 13:04
  Speaker 8: they kind of took the direction from Pat and so
• 13:07
  Speaker 8: like when Pat was starting, he didn't really have a
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: clue what to do. We basically had to tell his parents,
• 13:14
  Speaker 8: like you got first of all, you got to stop
• 13:16
  Speaker 8: feeding him, because that's the first thing you gotta do,
• 13:20
  Speaker 8: or we're gonna move him out of your house. And
• 13:22
  Speaker 8: then the second thing was is just you know what
• 13:24
  Speaker 8: direction he should take. So Pat's one of those guys
• 13:28
  Speaker 8: in the hockey world that has always checked in with me.
• 13:30
  Speaker 8: Is funny because you brought it up what it means
• 13:33
  Speaker 8: the hockey community. I just heard from Osh who just
• 13:36
  Speaker 8: retired and had his party. I hear from a lot
• 13:41
  Speaker 8: of the young guys that that I didn't even play
• 13:43
  Speaker 8: with that I just I would say, kind of mentor
• 13:46
  Speaker 8: through Saint Louis, And it's just great to see the
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: success a lot of these guys have had. I think
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: that's the one thing that I think. I'm sure you
• 13:54
  Speaker 8: realize when you retired, you don't miss the game as
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: much as you miss the guys.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know.
• 13:59
  Speaker 8: So for me, knowing I've said this before in this
• 14:03
  Speaker 8: chair that I'm saying in right now, I wake up
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: one morning and I fought Grimsom like eleven times, and
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: he's sitting beside my bed and I look over and
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: I'm like, oh, Jesus, I must be sick if you're here.
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: And he starts laughing and he says, Chase, I want
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: to kiss you on the lips right now, and there's
• 14:20
  Speaker 8: nothing you can do about it. I said, well, you're
• 14:22
  Speaker 8: zero and eleven so far, so you might as well
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: get it in now, because this is your best chance, buddy.
• 14:28
  Speaker 8: So you know, just knowing that that there's so many
• 14:30
  Speaker 8: guys that care around the hockey community is pretty.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Special, no question.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: But you mentioned tj Oshan announced his retirement on Monday.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: You play with some major personality during your time in
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis, Chase or Brett hol obviously, Brendan Shanahan, Chris Pronger,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Mark Bershman, Basima Craye, Tony Twist.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Who stands out of that list, Well.
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: I mean you mentioned a lot of great guys and
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: a lot of guys that were great players too, you know,
• 14:56
  Speaker 8: like I played, I was lucky because you think about it,
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: you play with I played with mckinni's hole Pronger, all
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: those guys at the same time, you know, that's a
• 15:04
  Speaker 8: those hall of famers and guys those guys are special,
• 15:08
  Speaker 8: pretty pretty neat, you know. And you look at a
• 15:09
  Speaker 8: power play and you know you got mckinnison Pronger on
• 15:13
  Speaker 8: the back end, you got Hall Tours on Demetra, and
• 15:17
  Speaker 8: you know you're kind of sitting on the bench going, man,
• 15:18
  Speaker 8: I feel pretty confident right now, like we we got
• 15:20
  Speaker 8: a chance here. And uh, and you know, you see
• 15:25
  Speaker 8: some of those guys, Mark Berzwan just a character Twister.
• 15:29
  Speaker 8: I don't think there's anybody mentally tougher or tougher in
• 15:32
  Speaker 8: the game than Tony Twist. I mean just the Race
• 15:37
  Speaker 8: for Chase they used to call it. Guys would try
• 15:39
  Speaker 8: and come out and get their fight in and they
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: would race to fight with me so they didn't have
• 15:43
  Speaker 8: to fight with Twister. That was real, real, The Race
• 15:46
  Speaker 8: for Chase was a real thing where guys, uh, you know,
• 15:50
  Speaker 8: it's funny. Mark Bergerman was telling the story rob Ray
• 15:53
  Speaker 8: and and Twister got into a fight, and and Twister
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: broke rob Ray's cheat book. And Bersion was telling the
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: story last year, and there was Rob Blake and Nelson
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: Emerson and Todd Calling and trent Yannie, myself, Twister and
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: and burs says uh Shassar you know, he calls me
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: Chaser and Chaser instead of Chaser.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Shassar Shassar.
• 16:15
  Speaker 8: Remember when the big guy going to fight with Rob
• 16:18
  Speaker 8: Ray and he fight him and he breaks his cheek
• 16:19
  Speaker 8: bone and I said, yeah, Burish, I remember Twister breaking
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: his cheek bone. He goes and then we go to
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: Buffalo and the next time we played them, then they're
• 16:27
  Speaker 8: running around and it is the race for Chase and
• 16:30
  Speaker 8: and so Razor and and Brad May and Boogner and
• 16:35
  Speaker 8: Barnaby and all these guys are running around and and
• 16:38
  Speaker 8: they're and they're trying to get after me. And Twist
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: is on the trip and he says, and he says,
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: and you take them to the timeout and you elbow
• 16:46
  Speaker 8: Brad May and the nose and you say, that's all right.
• 16:48
  Speaker 8: I fight with all you guys, but the big guy
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: at home right now and he's watching the game. And
• 16:53
  Speaker 8: when we play you next week, he's going to be
• 16:55
  Speaker 8: in the lineup, So don't worry. At which I did.
• 16:58
  Speaker 8: I got into it may Day and I said, don't worry, guys.
• 17:02
  Speaker 8: I said, I'll fight with all of you tonight, but
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: big guys watching on TV right tonight at home. Next
• 17:07
  Speaker 8: week we got you guys again, and he goes and
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: then the next thing, you know, Pavel's score tree goal
• 17:12
  Speaker 8: and we win the game and no fight, and we
• 17:13
  Speaker 8: win the game and it was nothing because we calmed
• 17:16
  Speaker 8: the big guy calm everything down from home.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: It was hilarious.
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: You know, He's basically saying, like Twister scared everybody, and
• 17:25
  Speaker 8: he just all I had to do was threatn the guys, saying, yeah,
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: Twister was at home watching it, watching on TV, and
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: and he was going to make sure everything was cleaned
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: up next week. So how it was with him, I mean,
• 17:37
  Speaker 8: he was just that tough. So you know, I roomed
• 17:40
  Speaker 8: with Hull for seven and a half years. So the
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: stories are endless, and I'm pretty fortunate to uh to
• 17:47
  Speaker 8: play that long, and especially playing in city that loves
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: sports like it doesn't say Louis. So I had a
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: lot of characters that I played with it.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: There were a lot of fun you you.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: I read a story about you and Brett Hall stealing
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: Bob Barry's.
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: Car, yeah and his Jaguar.
• 18:05
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, we uh well he we went to the
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: game one night and I came to the game with Shanahan.
• 18:11
  Speaker 8: I live with Brendan and Hali asked me if we're
• 18:15
  Speaker 8: going out after and or you know, we're going to
• 18:17
  Speaker 8: ride together. I said sure. So I went up to
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: the offices where he cut out of the rink all
• 18:21
  Speaker 8: the time. He went in a different exit out of
• 18:23
  Speaker 8: the rink, and he said, where'd you park? And I said,
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: I don't have a car. What do you mean I
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: have a car? I said, I'm in a car. He
• 18:32
  Speaker 8: said Jesus, and he said, I'll be right back. So
• 18:34
  Speaker 8: he comes back and he's got the keys to a car.
• 18:41
  Speaker 8: We go out to the parking lot and he goes,
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: come on, let's go, and he jumps in Bob Berry's jag.
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: So I get in the jag and him and Bob
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: were kind of close. So I mean, I don't know.
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: I mean, I don't think he's stealing the thing. I
• 18:53
  Speaker 8: just figure, you know, he's just talked to Bob and
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: whatever the deal they made. He's got a car. So
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: I get in the car. We go down down to
• 19:02
  Speaker 8: the landing and you mixing. You know, it's you know,
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: two am, and we're not done. So we go to
• 19:07
  Speaker 8: the east side. We're gonna go to Pops. It's twenty
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: four hours joint, so we get over the pops and
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: it's like it's the lowest form of life. It's it's
• 19:16
  Speaker 8: basically it's everybody that shouldn't be out that is still out,
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: Like it's just it's just in place that you just
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: shake your head.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: You're like, what the hell. And it's a.
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: Mixture of guys in suits to people living on the
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: street in this place, you know. And it's now it's
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: like four point thirty in the morning, and I'm like, dude,
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: we got to go, like, we got to get out
• 19:36
  Speaker 8: of here.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: We got practice in the morning. So he throws me
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: the keys.
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: I get out in the parking lot and I'm having
• 19:43
  Speaker 8: trouble with the lock and I'm jiggling it around and
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: the key snaps in the door lock.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: Now we got Bob Barry's Jaguar.
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: It isn't like we you know, we got some rental
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: car that we could just leave over in East Saint Louis. Like,
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: there's no way you leave the Jag over there, and
• 19:58
  Speaker 8: it's not on blocks.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: When we get back, we go.
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: To the secure and we finally convinced some guy at
• 20:06
  Speaker 8: security that he needs to let us in and get
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: over with the door locks, and he needs to make
• 20:13
  Speaker 8: this key, so the guy doesn't believe it's Brett Hall.
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: Find you know, no cell phone, so we're calling from
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: the desk in the security office at Pops, which is again,
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: these guys are some rugged customers, right yea. Polly's then
• 20:26
  Speaker 8: holding court out in the parking lot. He's got a
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: burning barrel going burning whatever is in the burning barrel,
• 20:32
  Speaker 8: and he's got cases of beer and he's telling stories
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: and these people are sitting there like they're having story
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: time with Brett Hall. The sun's starting to come up,
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: this guy's making keys. I'm like, this is a disaster.
• 20:44
  Speaker 8: And he promises that he's going to get everybody at
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: breakfast at eat Right, which is just across the river
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: into Saint Louis, into Missouri, and it's his famous place.
• 20:54
  Speaker 8: It's just a little it's about the size of my
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: hospital room. But he's going to buy everyone breakfast. So
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: I'm like, just shut up already, and he's like, ah, cares,
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: don't worry about it, you know. So pretty soon they
• 21:09
  Speaker 8: got the door lock unlocked, they get the door the
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: key made, we get into Bob's car. We're driving across
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: pull In. I'm like, Holly, we're not stopping it. Eat right,
• 21:18
  Speaker 8: He goes, of course we are. So we pull in
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: and all of these people, I mean, guys that are bartender, security, lawyers,
• 21:27
  Speaker 8: that have had a big night, strippers, you name it.
• 21:32
  Speaker 8: Every form of life is at the eat right okay,
• 21:35
  Speaker 8: And it is just like people are walking. I'm like
• 21:37
  Speaker 8: Jesus and he's just like, whatever they want, and he
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: just shorter. This guy's they're shorter chef, cooking way, cooking away,
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: cooking away. Everybody's getting fed. Next thing, you know, Holly's
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: inviting them to practice. I'm like, Holly, that's inviding everybody
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: to the rink to practice. So we practice up rent
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: with ice rink and we come in and we're there
• 21:59
  Speaker 8: before everybody, and I just want to get in and
• 22:01
  Speaker 8: get out of my suit because it's the suit I
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: wore the night before and I don't want the coaches
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: to see me. And Holly just walks in could care less,
• 22:10
  Speaker 8: walks right in the coach's office and throws the keys
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: on Bob Barry's desk, and Bob Barry goes batshit crazy.
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: He's reported his car stolen. He's going nuts. I can
• 22:21
  Speaker 8: hear him yelling. All I want to do is get
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: out of my fucking suit and get into my underwear.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Okay, just not have him see me in but in
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: this suit.
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: And he comes around the corner and he sees me
• 22:32
  Speaker 8: just getting out of my dress pants.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: He looks, he goes you.
• 22:36
  Speaker 8: You, of all fucking guys, you're not good enough to
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: hang around with him.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: I'll fucking send you to the miners. I don't know
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: who you think you are.
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: And he starts yelling at me, and Holly's like, relax,
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: and you know he can't.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: He could care less. He's got eighty six dolls he
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: could carry.
• 22:53
  Speaker 8: At that point shit from the coach. He hasn't even
• 22:56
  Speaker 8: given Brett shit. He's reported the car stolen. But the
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: worst part about the whole thing was we went out
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: on the ice and all of these people are around
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: the glass waiting for Holley Stick like they're.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Banging on the glass, hey Chase, you know, great breakfast.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: And they's just like security wearing the orange Pops security
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: jackets and strippers and and like every single.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: Like from Pops, like just everything.
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: And Garth Butcher was the captain and he just skated
• 23:29
  Speaker 8: out on the ice and he looked around. He watched
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: this throw up five minutes he comes over and he goes,
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: what the fuck did you guys do last night?
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: I said, Butcher, you.
• 23:37
  Speaker 8: Wouldn't believe it if I told you, and Holly could
• 23:40
  Speaker 8: care less. He couldn't care that I was getting it.
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: I got into it, I got all of the shit
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: for it. But Holly could care less. He was just like, man,
• 23:48
  Speaker 8: that was fun hunh And I'm like, dude, they're still here.
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: It's practices over. Get him out of here. Oh what
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: a day.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: You great characters, what a great story.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Uh so you just did in the vedical weeks of
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the Make a Wish Foundation.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: What keeps you so active with charities like that?
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Man, it's funny. You know, when we're playing, we try
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: and do as much as we can.
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: I think in a charity world, and I say this,
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: a lot were an inch deep and a mile wide.
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: We never really dig in and know exactly where money's
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: going or what it's going for. And I think just
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: being this this has changed me a lot. I think
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: I have a lot more. I can recognize when people
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: are hurting a little bit more now, I think, and
• 24:31
  Speaker 8: when you need to take a little bit more time
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: for people. But also following the money and watching how
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: you deliver. You know, I think five minutes of your
• 24:41
  Speaker 8: time is worth more than five thousand year dollars lots
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: of times. And so I think being able to do
• 24:47
  Speaker 8: something cool with the kids that make a wish event
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: we just did was really cool event.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: We did it at airline.
• 24:52
  Speaker 8: Hey, they'd put a golf stream in for kids to
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: look through the plane. They had all these Perraris and
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: Lamborghinis and McLaren's and rolls everything around for the kids
• 25:02
  Speaker 8: to look at. And I think, speak go for a ride,
• 25:05
  Speaker 8: and it was amazing to watch the kid's spirits and
• 25:08
  Speaker 8: to know that there was kids that were on that
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: make a wish list and their wish was to just
• 25:12
  Speaker 8: meet the Saint Louis Blue.
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: It's like, how easy is that for us? Right meet
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: the speaker.
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: It was like, shit, I could organize that in fifteen seconds.
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: And you know, and so when you hear like a
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: lot of these wishes cost ten thousand dollars and stuff
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: like that, well not for us to show up. And
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: so I think I think Robbie Thomas, Perico Steen and
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: Falker were guys that showed up at it, and again
• 25:35
  Speaker 8: it meant so much to them and we moved the
• 25:37
  Speaker 8: program around so they could get there and leave because
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: they had a second event during the day. And to
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: speak volumes about them just losing out of the playoffs,
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: being at event, taking the time for it, and then
• 25:49
  Speaker 8: having to go to a second event that day and
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: show their faces and be around kids again, I think
• 25:54
  Speaker 8: speaks volumes about the way hockey players think.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: Does that lift your spirits a lot too? You jumping
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: into those things that I know kind of when I,
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: you know, was playing and doing a lot of that
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: stuff with the teams, It always, you know, the perspective,
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: but also gave me a boost of energy knowing that,
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: like you're helping people with people's spirits as well.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think so. I think I think I've touched
• 26:16
  Speaker 8: on that a little bit. About being at the hospital here,
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: I think there's lots of times where you can walk
• 26:20
  Speaker 8: around here and recognize when there's people that need a
• 26:24
  Speaker 8: little bit of a brous You know they're here and
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: they're lonely, and lots of times you can die in
• 26:28
  Speaker 8: here because they're lonely, not because of the cancer, because
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: the cancer is tough and chemo is really tough, and
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: then having to do it for I think I've been
• 26:36
  Speaker 8: here off and on for the last year and a half,
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: just over a year and a half, a year and
• 26:41
  Speaker 8: eight months. It can it can beat you up. And
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: so for me, I've got that entire I've got my family,
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: I've got the people of Saint Louis, but I've got
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: that hockey family, you know, that supports me where a
• 26:52
  Speaker 8: lot of people don't. And like you said, going into
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: one of their rooms and having that conversation, I think
• 26:58
  Speaker 8: it's good and healthy for people and if you can
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: help pick them up. I mean, it's just your time
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: you're in here anyway. So for me, I find it.
• 27:07
  Speaker 8: I find it, you know, more an obligation more than anything.
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: I think when you put on your jersey, you have
• 27:13
  Speaker 8: an obligation to give back. And the fact that you
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: were talking about you did it and it made you
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: feel good, it should make you feel good. And but
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: then on the flip side of it too, I don't
• 27:23
  Speaker 8: think sometimes we recognize just how valuable we are from
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: a mental standpoint to people, how many people we can
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: do something for by just taking a little bit of time.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: So we all said last one for me, Kelly any good,
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: John Ham stories, Well.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: The funny thing about him was like he was just
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: our bartender.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Like he like crazy, It's it's crazy.
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: The craziest thing is is the first time I seen
• 27:47
  Speaker 8: him on TV. We were in Hartford. Shanahan' been traded
• 27:50
  Speaker 8: to Hartford. I've been traded to Hartford. And I look
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: at the TV. I'm like, what the fuck? And I'm
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: looking at him and I called Shanahan Cable TV. Of course, right,
• 27:59
  Speaker 8: I called Shanahan and Hartford. I go, hey, you got
• 28:01
  Speaker 8: your TV on? He goes, yeah, I go put it
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: on a fifty one. He's like, what, I go put
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: on a channel fifty one. He's like why, I go,
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: just do it. So he puts it on. He's like,
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: what the fuck? And like, I'm honestly, God, didn't even
• 28:15
  Speaker 8: know he acted.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: I didn't even know he acted. Give me, dude.
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: He would wake up on our couch in the morning,
• 28:22
  Speaker 8: we'd have a party, he'd be one a couch in
• 28:24
  Speaker 8: the morning, and he's just one of our buddies.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: I thought he's just the bartender at Cardwalls. I had
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: no idea.
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: I don't know if he was just like embarrassed to
• 28:32
  Speaker 8: say something, or I don't.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: Know what the hell it was.
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: With him, but all of a sudden, I'm like, dude,
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: there's ammer And it was unbelievable.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: And and you know, and I mean, I love the.
• 28:43
  Speaker 8: Guy to death, like like we have some we've had
• 28:46
  Speaker 8: some great time since then too, but we had great
• 28:48
  Speaker 8: times prior to that. And he there used to be
• 28:51
  Speaker 8: this thing called party in the Park and it was
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: that and here his restaurant was kind of a collecting,
• 28:55
  Speaker 8: a collection of where the younger people went. Yeah, and
• 28:59
  Speaker 8: he would just literally be pointing out girls, going, hey, listen,
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: there's a girl over here in the back at the restaurant.
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: You know, you got to see her. She's unbelievable. Great
• 29:08
  Speaker 8: gallat known he for. You got to see her. She's unbelievable.
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: So he was like the scout, the head scout for
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: the freaking hockey players. We were just coming in this
• 29:16
  Speaker 8: place and Ham would be bartend and he'd have everything
• 29:19
  Speaker 8: already set up. It was unbelievable. And then to know
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: that he was, you know, and to see how the
• 29:24
  Speaker 8: success he's having now is awesome.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: So it's pretty easy to get him to come back,
• 29:29
  Speaker 8: come back and do things too. Because we've always included
• 29:32
  Speaker 8: him as one of the alumni who knew who knew.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: I saw him at your at your event at Winter Classic,
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: and that's exactly the feeling I got. I was like,
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: this guy, you could put skates on him in difference.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, he loves it. He loves it.
• 29:48
  Speaker 8: And and it's funny because you know, like I've been lucky,
• 29:51
  Speaker 8: I've been lucky in the in the in the event
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: we did in Saint Louis, the Cancer of Incitans event,
• 29:57
  Speaker 8: calling guys in them showing up and completely name dropping. Now,
• 30:01
  Speaker 8: but when you see those guys show up, like on
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: Peyton show up and and Garth Brooks and Dirk Spentley
• 30:08
  Speaker 8: and those guys show up, it makes you feel good.
• 30:11
  Speaker 8: But it also puts things in perspective of just what
• 30:14
  Speaker 8: kind of people these guys are? You know, Ham showing
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: up at you know, all kinds of event. He's done
• 30:19
  Speaker 8: so many events for our alumni. Matter of fact, we
• 30:22
  Speaker 8: purchased a ring for him, the alumni did. I don't
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: know if you guys know, a Stanley Cup ring. Yeah,
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: we did a thing at the at the event, we
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: bought him a We bought him a ring and presented
• 30:33
  Speaker 8: it to him. Our our alumni had a huge event
• 30:35
  Speaker 8: in Kathy Napple and and him and his wife were
• 30:39
  Speaker 8: there and we did a little presentation and Hammer got
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: a ring and he was emotional, of course, but it
• 30:44
  Speaker 8: was like he's done so many things for our alumni over.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: The years that it was like easy.
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: We're like, you know, Lord knows the amount of money
• 30:52
  Speaker 8: we've raised because he showed up.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: You know, he showed up.
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: We did an event one night called the Dining Draft,
• 30:58
  Speaker 8: and you basically you show up at this event and
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: you draft a guy that you want to have dinner with,
• 31:02
  Speaker 8: and then you go to that restaurant and have.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: Dinner with him.
• 31:05
  Speaker 8: So like we had Hull and Ozzie Smith and mckinnis
• 31:08
  Speaker 8: and Tory Holt and like all these great athletes, and
• 31:12
  Speaker 8: then of course Hammer, we sell him for eighty five
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: thousand bucks. You can go to dinner with Ham for
• 31:17
  Speaker 8: eighty five grand. The guy pays eighty five grand. Someone
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: pays eighty five grand for the Stanley Cup. It turns
• 31:23
  Speaker 8: out it's the same table they pay. They pay eighty
• 31:26
  Speaker 8: five So they get paid one hundred and seventy grand
• 31:28
  Speaker 8: to take the cup and and uh John Ham to
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: dinner and they buy one more player and they pay
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: five grand for Danny Cox to go for dinner. Danny
• 31:39
  Speaker 8: Cox is like, yeah, Ham and I raised one hundred
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: and seventy five grand with the Stanley Cup to go
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: go to go fucking dinner and and uh and we
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: had the dining draft and he goes amazing, that chunk
• 31:51
  Speaker 8: of metal can raise the same amount of money as
• 31:54
  Speaker 8: John Ham did. But those guys and Danny Cox raised
• 31:56
  Speaker 8: one hundred and seventy five thousand. So Cox he tells
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: everybody that, hey, you know what, Hamm and I and
• 32:02
  Speaker 8: the Cup we raised one hundred and seventy five It's
• 32:04

  Speaker 1: He is, and we'll get to a little bit more
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: here involving some hockey news. But first will set of
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: file and sixty the twenty fifth anniversary of the talented
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: mister Ripley, which was sparked by the fact I read
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: this great book called The Yellow Face rf Quong came
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: in a couple of years ago.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: I've got this cool little thing I'm.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Doing here tal at the library because they know I'm
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: an avid reader, so they said, we gent to sign
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: up for our concierge special.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I'm like, what is that?
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: They go, will we recommend a book for you, book
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: of fiction every month?
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Like all right, fine. So the first book they recommend
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: it was awful, like anybody what it was.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: But I'm like, I read like twenty pages ago this
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: was about idea, Like no, But since then, shout out
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: to my local library. They've like they're on a hater
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: four for four just great books from all over place,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: different different genres, crime, fiction, history, novels, excellent.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: So anyways, this one, yellow Face, I don't know what's about,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: but it's a really great story came a couple of
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: years ago.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: Fictional story about a writer who is very jealous of
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: another writer, their friends with kind of friend of me
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: is to hang out together. The one friend is incredibly successful,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: rich author, the other one is an aspiring author, and
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: wes are having drinks one night, and the rich author
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: is a choking, dying.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable story. The woman's you know, heartbroken, et cetera.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Kita also kind of really didn't like her that much
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: because they kind of have this love hate relationship. Before
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: she died, though, she was telling her about this manuscript
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: she had, this is this is my next book.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: They're a little blitzed, but she's reading it.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: She could tell you because this is awesome, this is
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: a great book, but she doesn't tell her friend that
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: because you kind of hate each other.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: She's like, it's not bad. I'm a little drunk on
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: what's happening.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Friend dies, She steals the books, publishes the book under
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: her own name, ends up becoming a cause celebra Oh
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: my god, unbelievable book, and she's ratizes it by saying, well,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: the actual book was still a little bit unfinished, like
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I had to go.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Through it, clean it up a little bit.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Change this, change that, like her writing is incredible, but
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: like I am an author. In part, however, she doesn't
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: admit it, but becomes a sensation to all the amotter
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: of times someone finds out that she ripped it off.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: The story goes in there. Great book check out yellow Face.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Anyways, the reason why I mentioned it is in the
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: blurb they said, well, it's kind of Patricia Heismanth style,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: like a Patricia Heismith.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Oh that's right.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: She wrote the talent to mister Ripley, speaking of assuming
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: one's persona stealing someone's work. So amazingly it tell I'd
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: never actually seen it. I remember when it came out.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: It was in theaters.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: Anthony Mangello directed the English Patient obviously, I remember Matt
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Damons and.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: It's just one of those moayes that kind of slipped
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: through the cracks.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Did It went in the Oscar So I didn't end
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: up watching it, but finally got around of seeing a
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: twenty fifth Unders and it was fantastic. I mean, what
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: was so great about watching it now is you know
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: all these actors are, but back then there's just so
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: fresh faced Damon Jude Law, Kate Blanchett, Gwyneth Baltrow and
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: of course two of my favorite actors, the incredible Philip
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Seymour Hoff and showing up as Freddy and the great
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: investigator Philip Baker Hall. Great character actor Passway a few
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: years ago loved the movie. I love the glossy direction
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: of anthy Man Galiic got I should I should have
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: watched it years ago, just for the jazz and the
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: setting in Italy. Oh my god, it's gorgeous through in
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: Vanas shooting it there in Rome. Great cast again for
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: those who don't know the story, Damon is the talent
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: to mister Ripley. He assumes the prisona of Dickey, who's
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: played by Jude Law, the rich playboy. Another great character
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: actor James Rebhorn loved him from Stead of a Woman.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: He plays the father of Jude Law, who sends him
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: over there to try, you know, get his son to
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: come back. But he assumes Dickie's identity. He got this
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: whole is he isn't He's gonna get caught, is gonna
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: catch up to him. But I thought it was an
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: excellent thriller, really fun. Damon seems to be having a blast.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: This was two years after Good Will Hunt You, so
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: this really kind of establishes Chops as a leading actor.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: With ut Ben Affleck and.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Again everything with Philip seemer Hoff and he's only in
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: at three scenes, but he's absolutely hysterical.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, tell.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: One of my favorite lines from Philip seymour Hoffman those
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: you wish you could fuck every woman just once.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: That's got to me.
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: I was thinking of it.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I go, that's gonna be a list of greatest opening
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: lines ever by a character, because it's the first thing
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: he says in English. He pulls up and he goes, oh,
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: look right now, pretty said comes to DJ and he's right.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: He gets out the car on the first thing he said,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: just leering at the woman. I'm like, PSA, it's all
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: time great. But the reason also e J Reddick second
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: men she's getting He was talking about Ripley, the limited
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: series which Steve Zellien did Oscar winning writer of Schindler's List.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: I know that came out a couple years.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it was on Netflix, Apple TV
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: plus give Up last year, but been a lot of
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: talk around Ripley and Ripley such but the talented miss
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Ripley absolutely fantastic. I encourage people to check her if
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: they have not yet done so, really really well done.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Congratulations to Lane Hudson named the recipient the Calder Trophy.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: As expected, j D wins a top rookie out of
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: maclan Celberty and Dustin Wolf first HAPs put it win
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: the award since Ken Dryden back in nineteen seventy two.

  Speaker 7: H Yeah, great mom for the Abs.
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: All the other voters can will fuck themselves that celeb
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: that Dustin Wolf is second in macklean Celberny's third. I
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: mean the fact that McLean Celburgny wasn't second, it wasn't
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: a tighter race is crazy.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: To me U.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: But nothing taken away from Laye Hudson. I think Lane
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: Hudson was the winner clear cut. I mean he brought up,
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: he brought the Canadians, helped the Canadians. I mean what
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: seventy points helped him get to the Stanley Cup playoffs,
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: and I mean he's credible, talent, amazing they got to
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: build around him in Montreal. But yeah, congratulations of that
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: little fucker.
• 37:25

• 37:35
  Speaker 1: what was the main thing you gleaned from him?
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: Panthers on the Prowl. He's doing an amazing initiative with
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: his wife. They're selling these like ceramic panthers. I think
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: it's five grand for a panther and you're able to
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: paint it and design it any way you want, and
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: then it becomes like something and all the sport goes
• 37:55
  Speaker 4: to cancer research and cancer prevention. So it's it's a
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: very cool seems very close to his heart, like like
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: very very sincere interview, and he's an amazing man. He's
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: very nice to talk to and you're gonna hear some
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: great stuff here. So here's more Panthers on the Prowl
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: with Billy Zito.

  Speaker 10: We're gonna make sure the cameras can pick this up.
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: But tell us a little bit about this initiative and
• 38:22
  Speaker 5: why it was so important for you to start it.

• 38:28
  Speaker 11: and I know what affects you, whether it's your family
• 38:30

• 38:36
  Speaker 11: to try to do some good and the American Cancer
• 38:38
  Speaker 11: Society asked us to share the campaign for the year.
• 38:43
  Speaker 11: And what a better way than for fund raising to
• 38:47
  Speaker 11: have everybody get a panther that buys the panther effectively
• 38:52
  Speaker 11: and then personalizes it.
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: And it might be fun.
• 38:55
  Speaker 11: It might be six Morning Goods or something like that, right, well,
• 38:59
  Speaker 11: paint it right, or the children's hospital and then someone
• 39:02
  Speaker 11: might buy.
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: One for Grandma. I'd be very personal. But it brings
• 39:05
  Speaker 6: people together in the community in a creative way.
• 39:08
  Speaker 11: We're trying to raise a million bucks and we're gonna
• 39:11
  Speaker 11: we're pretty much half way there, and it's just a
• 39:14
  Speaker 11: nice way to pull people together to do something decent
• 39:17
  Speaker 11: and celebrate our.
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: Great game and the community that is hockey.
• 39:21
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, the community that is hockey is so tight,
• 39:24
  Speaker 11: But talk about the community here that you've seen grown exponentially,
• 39:28
  Speaker 11: that you've been a part of this organization. I think
• 39:31
  Speaker 11: the best part about it is I just start crying
• 39:36
  Speaker 11: the sincerity of the fans and the people that you mean,
• 39:39
  Speaker 11: and they come right up to you. I really don't
• 39:42
  Speaker 11: know much about hockey, or I don't still really don't
• 39:45
  Speaker 11: know much, but I love the Panthers.
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: I love what you're doing.
• 39:48
  Speaker 11: There's ball hockey in my kids' school, you know, the
• 39:52
  Speaker 11: guys in my neighborhood there, and it's just it sort
• 39:55
  Speaker 11: of transcends the excitement of the sport. Yeah, I mean,
• 39:58
  Speaker 11: I don't know how many people have told you Games
• 40:00
  Speaker 11: one and two. Oh my god, I never know it
• 40:02
  Speaker 11: was that good, right, And then so you've got the
• 40:06
  Speaker 11: entertainment and the sport.
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: We're growing the game, and then you have that relationship.
• 40:12
  Speaker 11: I may misuse the word symbios, but the way.
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: That the players in the community have come together.
• 40:18
  Speaker 11: And if you had occasion to see our parade last year,
• 40:21
  Speaker 11: did Yeah, it was travesty right, like thunderstorms, lightning. Oh
• 40:24
  Speaker 11: my god, it's awful. It was the best braid of
• 40:26
  Speaker 11: all time because everybody was in it together, and it's
• 40:29
  Speaker 11: just you could just see, you could just see how
• 40:32
  Speaker 11: the players in the community came together, and then it's
• 40:36
  Speaker 11: it's it's here.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: It's real.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: I played in a lot of non traditional hockey markets.
• 40:40
  Speaker 11: I played here, and I just find the connection with
• 40:42
  Speaker 11: the fan base is always almost deeper at times because
• 40:46
  Speaker 11: you really have to do a lot of outreach and
• 40:48
  Speaker 11: the fans when they come in, they love.
• 40:50
  Speaker 7: It because there's one of other.
• 40:51
  Speaker 11: Things that could be doing, but they just support so heavily,
• 40:53
  Speaker 11: so amazing work.
• 40:54
  Speaker 7: That you guys are doing.
• 40:55
  Speaker 11: And I think it's because of that, because of the
• 40:57
  Speaker 11: work you guys did, the players appreciate. Hey, wait a minute,
• 41:01
  Speaker 11: these fans are they're all in, they're coming, and it's
• 41:03
  Speaker 11: the buildings going.
• 41:04
  Speaker 6: To be loud. It's it's it's a lot of fun.
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: Like it's just it's all about.
• 41:08
  Speaker 5: The hockey community is special.
• 41:10
  Speaker 10: Also supporting your panthers on the Prowley saw Michael Boogley,
• 41:12
  Speaker 10: I saw NFL stars as well.
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: How special is it to have across.
• 41:16
  Speaker 10: Different platforms, across different sports than supporting your great cause.
• 41:20
  Speaker 11: Humbling, exciting, but really kind of brings the whole message
• 41:26
  Speaker 11: back everybody, everybody and that that is scary, scary, but
• 41:34
  Speaker 11: there are solutions and if you go to almost any on.
• 41:37
  Speaker 6: College and you say, if I give you the funding,
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: can you improve our odds?
• 41:41
  Speaker 11: So that's what it's all about as well, Like what
• 41:45
  Speaker 11: does this mean this to you and your wife Julie
• 41:47
  Speaker 11: like doing this and being a part of this.
• 41:53
  Speaker 6: I can speak for her on this. She's a survivor.
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: I'm not.
• 41:57
  Speaker 11: But when you have children, you know, when you have daughters,
• 42:00
  Speaker 11: mom whose mom is that? Geane and breastkets that dropped
• 42:05
  Speaker 11: the mic? You don't need to ask why.
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: And I don't know you guys do you have daughters?
• 42:11
  Speaker 11: But I mean I got a little seven weeks you right,
• 42:14
  Speaker 11: it's somebody And so we can do this in a
• 42:18
  Speaker 11: fashion will raise money, The money will say it lies, but.
• 42:21
  Speaker 6: We can bring people together, can actually ironically have fun
• 42:25
  Speaker 6: doing it.
• 42:26
  Speaker 11: And when you see some of the panthers, it's bread taking.
• 42:31
  Speaker 10: You've got one of the panthers here with you. I
• 42:33
  Speaker 10: think we got some camera angles.
• 42:34
  Speaker 5: But what do you hold it up for?
• 42:35
  Speaker 7: Hold it up for everybody?
• 42:39
  Speaker 11: So you and then you would you would the fulize
• 42:42
  Speaker 11: it however you want. It's amazing off the charge. Yeah,
• 42:46
  Speaker 11: it's a little intimidating. I mean that's incredible to have
• 42:51
  Speaker 11: and gifting and I mean just incredible stuff what you're
• 42:55
  Speaker 11: doing and you and your wife Juliet, and just amazing
• 42:58
  Speaker 11: things with the panthers.
• 42:59
  Speaker 7: Organization. I want to talk a little bit about hockey.
• 43:02
  Speaker 11: You coming in here and firing from the hymn and listen,
• 43:05
  Speaker 11: A lot of people would have said trading Jonathan Hubert
• 43:08
  Speaker 11: Oak matthew a Chock, Well, that's an industry trade.
• 43:10
  Speaker 7: Why did you do it?
• 43:11
  Speaker 11: It's great, but you understood that this team needed to
• 43:14
  Speaker 11: get to the next level. And nothing against Jonathan, but
• 43:16
  Speaker 11: that was the trade that needed to happen, and it
• 43:19
  Speaker 11: seems to have just galvanized your group. And how do
• 43:22
  Speaker 11: you come to terms of making a decision like that. Well,
• 43:28
  Speaker 11: I think maybe the process is probably what drives it.
• 43:32
  Speaker 11: And so the way that at least we go about
• 43:34
  Speaker 11: our business, certainly on the pro level, the detail, the
• 43:45
  Speaker 11: I'll use the word severity, of the of the work
• 43:48
  Speaker 11: that the scouts do, the comparing contrast against alternative information sources, analytics,
• 43:55
  Speaker 11: other scouts, it's a it's a pretty thorough process as
• 43:59
  Speaker 11: far as beating up a nocean, or should we do this?
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: Why okay? Why not? Okay? Why not? Back and forth,
• 44:06
  Speaker 6: back and forth.
• 44:07
  Speaker 11: It can get personal too, but at the end of
• 44:09
  Speaker 11: the day, that group works so hard that if we
• 44:13
  Speaker 11: come to a conclusion on something, it's generally pretty effective.
• 44:16
  Speaker 11: So I would say that that makes things a lot
• 44:19
  Speaker 11: easier when you have so many smart people who we're
• 44:24
  Speaker 11: committed and hardworking and virtuous in their emotion like this,
• 44:28
  Speaker 11: they'll give their opinion that Bill's needle can't play, but
• 44:32
  Speaker 11: he might be a nice guy, but he can't play right,
• 44:34
  Speaker 11: and then the other guy will advocate what he likes.
• 44:38
  Speaker 6: It's a pretty thorough process.
• 44:40
  Speaker 10: Well, as a wife married to a professional scout in baseball,
• 44:43
  Speaker 10: I appreciate that process and love that they're a part
• 44:45
  Speaker 10: of the decision making. You got some of the core
• 44:47
  Speaker 10: still together, Brad Marshans some added pieces.
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: Just tell us.
• 44:50
  Speaker 10: About the group that you have together and what makes
• 44:52
  Speaker 10: them so special.
• 44:54
  Speaker 6: Marshans Kenny him still a rat.
• 44:57
  Speaker 11: I just did an interview and I asked, and I said, who, Yeah,
• 45:02
  Speaker 11: Well it's I'm sure you guys know as talented as
• 45:07
  Speaker 11: an on ice hockey player as he is who he
• 45:10
  Speaker 11: is as a person, and the way that he's managed
• 45:13
  Speaker 11: to come to a new team and fit in, not
• 45:15
  Speaker 11: just fit in seamlessly, but.
• 45:17
  Speaker 6: Actually have a role in the fiber of the team.
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: It's extraordinary, Like it's it's really something.
• 45:22
  Speaker 7: It's cool.
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: Man, just.
• 45:26
  Speaker 11: I think if you look at the interviews and you
• 45:28
  Speaker 11: ask any of the teammates.
• 45:30
  Speaker 6: About Brad, no one talks about hockey.
• 45:33
  Speaker 11: It's all about who he is as a person and
• 45:35
  Speaker 11: his character, what he does for a two and anton,
• 45:39
  Speaker 11: how he pulls them in and empowers them as hockey players.
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: It's it's just, uh, he's a special soul.
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: We just interviewed. We talked to a couple of the
• 45:48
  Speaker 7: draft picks coming up. James Hagen.
• 45:50
  Speaker 6: Okay, I'm gonna interrupt you. I walked in. Hello, nice
• 45:53

• 46:06
  Speaker 11: I know he's nice now, but you make sure you
• 46:08
  Speaker 11: go in the corner.
• 46:08
  Speaker 7: Don't let him off the hooks. He's not gonna let
• 46:10
  Speaker 7: you off the because he's such a competitor, which is
• 46:12
  Speaker 7: the duality of him, which is so great.
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good guy.
• 46:15
  Speaker 6: I don't think he can help that competitive part of his.
• 46:17
