  Speaker 3: two seconds one. Sala Horn Colorado puts a nickel on
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: the Minnesota Wild and they'll go to Minnesota, but the
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: two nothing series lead. Game three is Saturday in Saint Paul.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Never loss. I had a feeling in watching that game
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and here's how I put it. That one felt different
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to me. That felt maybe for the first time since
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, like twenty twenty two, they're they're good
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: as teams that have existed in the middle of that,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I understand. But it was something about everything in that game.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: The offensive prowess that you showed, the ability to score
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: on the power play, the great saves you got from
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: your goalie, the great PK that you had in a
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: couple of power plays at Minnesota had, and more than
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: anything else, mosed for the first time in a long time,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the Avs felt like the bully last night. They didn't
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: react to whatever the tone of the game was. They
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: set the tone of the game correct. Boys, that was
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know how else to put it. Talked about
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: round one and about what they did and how it
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: felt incredibly professional game to win less.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't say they were the bully, but I'd
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: say they were the physical aggressor.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about it bully, But boy did
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: they did.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: They take the opportunity to hit when the opportunity presented itself,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: and they just played that game entirely professionally. And if
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: you watched this VIC. It's watching the game with Johnny
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Lyles and Kyle last night, and Johnny pointed it out
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: maybe the first nine times down the ice, and then
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: it was completely noticeable from that point on. The Wild
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: would get it up at a neutral zone, they'd get
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: it across the red line, they chip it off the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: boards and in and then they go chase, forcing you
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: to turn and chase retrieve the puck. What they wanted
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to do is win that puck battle, and they wanted
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to force you in your own zone that you don't
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: stick candle into the zone, get shots off where because
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: then you're getting into a track meet, right, yeah, that
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: your tracking is off and so on. You want to
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: put yourself in a position that if you lose the
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: puck battle and the Abs get the puck and they're
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: transitioning out of their own zone, you're back defending. It's
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: not a track meet. Everything's gonna be okay. You slow
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: the game down, which was completely different than what they
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: did in game number one. And you know what, nothing worked,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: not in game one and not in game two. So
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: if I the ABS, they not only won both games,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: but they now have Hines and Company, the coaching staff
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of Minnesota going home, going Now, what do we try now? Yeah,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: because they changed their goalies and Gusta sim was I
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: think Gustav sim was worse than Mollsteat. That's my opinion.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: I'm really proud of the Avs not taking the bait,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: basically telling this team.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: You want to play this style, Okay, what else do
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: you want to do? What are the games do you
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: have up your sleeve? We can do that too. We'll
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: play whatever game, whatever style you want, because we have enough.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, the Avs are loaded with all kinds of
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: talent and they're so versatile. That's the thing about this team,
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: the versatility of this team. But I thought fellas I
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: thought the game was won at one particular point, thirteen
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: minutes into the first period, the Abs are leading to one.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Minnesota goes on the power play, and it was a
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: power play that produced a ton of shots. Yeah, very
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: dangerous shots. And I thought Scott Wedgwood made six saves
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: during that PK and all six of those could have
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: easily gone in preserving a two to one lead.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I thought the game changed after that. They tested Wedgwood.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: He answered the bell, he said not today, And that's
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: how the ass took charge.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: You're right, Vick, same power played the BIG's talking about.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I'm finding myself going cut it can't clear the zone.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: It can't clear that. Now, they had opportunities to clear
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: the zone and they didn't. Minnesota cut it off or
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: they've you know, punk bounces off your stick, that sort
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: of thing. At the same time, I'm looking at it
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: and going, that's a pretty damn good power play. Yeah,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: they've got Hughes running it, They've got Caprice off, They've
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: got Boldie, they've got Johansen, they've got all these dudes
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: tour excellent puck handlers, excellent shooters of the puck, excellent skaters.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: They've got a bunch of dudes on that top younit.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: You were going, it's a pretty damn good top unit.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: And so sometimes you're gonna get him done your own end.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: You're gonna get tired pedally killing. That's when the professionalism
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: VIC comes through and you just you just bear down
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: and you get it done.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: They did make one mistake. As good as Wedgwood was,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: he was out of position for a second where it
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: was like the net was wide open and Minnesota just
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: missed it. And I forgot who shot it, but he
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: just knocked his head back, looked straight up at the sky.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, I I missed it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: There's plenty of head throwing back moments in the playoff series,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but in that, in that sort of sequence, I think
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: you saw some of the things that the Avs have
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: that right now Minnesota doesn't and they need to find
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: it in a hurry or this is gonna be a
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: quick series.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: And it's this. You had so many different guys that
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: you trust in situations like this. Minnesota right now doesn't
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: know which goalie to trust. That's why they made the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: switch from Game one to Game two, despite how rough
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: game Game one was from a goal standpoint, allowing six
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Bednar sticks with legend we'll talk to Bednar at eight
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: o'clock this morning. Oh, I forgot, it's beding Oar Wednesday.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: That's right. I forgot that the coach is kind enough
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to carry that through the playoffs.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: Wake up, wake up, Wake up rocco.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Oh I woke up to a lot of droopy trees
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: this morning. He has noticed all the droopiness.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: This is a tree killing snow. So if you have
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: if you have a tree in question, bang that snow
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: off and bang it hard.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: I set my alarm for four am this morning, thinking
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: this was gonna be a tough drive. Glad to see
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that the roads were clear still, that was nice.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: I walked right up to my old beautiful tree this
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: morning and I said, please, don't catch your death.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: We don't ruin that. We're gonna save that for later.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Don't you do it. It's okay, don't you do it?
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Now, what I'm getting at is they don't trust their
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: goaltending is why they made the switch to Game two.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: You know what else they don't trust, and it's very
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: clear they trust two of their defensemen. That's it. Favor
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and Hughes almost played thirty minutes a piece last night.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Well, Hughes has been averaging about thirty minutes a game,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: and I'm thinking to myself, how.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Do you do that for eight games in a row,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Well, most think about this.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Well, now we're gonna get three days off, so that's
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: really going to help them. But I'm just saying, but I.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Think if I have these names right, because I heard
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Hines talking about it yesterday. It was asked a question,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: is it Spurgeon in Middleton. Are those two guys. I
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: think they've given up eight and nine goals so far
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: in this series when they're not giving them up, but
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: when they're on the ice. N that's correct, and it's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: like you can't trust it, and that's why he's playing
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Favor and Hughes thirty minutes. Well, you've got a really
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: good D pairing too. I would argue the two best
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: D pairings in the league are probably in this game.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And Devon Taves has been remarkable some of the plays
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: he made last night. It was I think the second
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: power play from Minnesota looked like they might nice pass,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: could get a run towards the net, and he cuts
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it off, whips it out of the zone.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, in fact, it came from behind the net. He
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: cut it off into the slot. Boom, right out of
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: the zones. Smart play.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Consider me shocked.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: You know, after the Nuggets Minnesota Tea Wolve series and
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: we suggested some repercussions. Do you remember the word repercussions
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: and we were vilified and called violence just whack jobs
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: for promoting violence. It's interesting last night, after McKinnon truck
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: to Boldy, after Lecky took out Hughes.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: We saw a couple instances.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: I've noticed a lot of those Minnesota fans calling for violence.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Really, yeah, it's crazy.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: How about that? It's crazy? Yeah, acting I mean, I
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: mean what I mean, it's sport. It's just sport, guys,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: It's just a game that seems dare I say hipocritical.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, we don't want to do what whoa whoa?
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Whoa?
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Whoa whoa? I mean whoa. By the way, I remember,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: I remember the temper tantrum you pulled a week ago,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: and we asked for physicality, and oh my god, I
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: know the one that you're pointing to because I saw it.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Now Minnesota fans are saying, hey, you need a lot
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: of them. Most of them are saying play as physically
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: as the abs, which is what we were saying about,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: which is exactly what we said.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: But then there was a couple guys, one in particular
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: that you got into it with, that said I want
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: heads in acls.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: That's what he said. Yeah, I want to expose these freaks. Again.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: I'll use that word because sports brings the passion out
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: of everybody. And here's another example. I mean, listen, dude,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: but I.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Think that way they got beat up last night.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: I love Nathan McKinnon because he takes names. He doesn't
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: he doesn't suffer fools. You want to play, No, I
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: ain't playing this game with you, Matt Boldy. If you want,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: you want, if.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: You want to get into that game, they can play
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: that game with you too. Vic, there's a legit question
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: for you, and I want you to think about.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: This all right, Bred not you, not you. I'm stop thinking. Vic.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: What is the fastest thing you've ever chased? The fastest
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: creature you've ever chased?
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Fastest creature? Well, I tried. Have you ever chased a chicken?
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: I was gonna say after after Rocky, I tried to
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: do the chicken thing at my grandfather's farm in the
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: Old Country.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: It's not easy chasing a chicken.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: You know your your your cousin is a donkey that's
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: easy to catch, right, I met that donkey, nice donkey.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: You ever tried to chase a cat? Yeah, it's not
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: easy either. Bunny rabbits are all over the those guys
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: are fast movers. Well, that's Quinn Hughes.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Quinn Hughes is whatever whatever animal you've tried to chase that, Okay,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: he's a he's a bunny rabbit. Whatever, whatever you think
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: in your in your mind, whatever you want to show
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: her my your bunny cup, go ahead, there's he bloves
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: his bunny and And the thing is, Quinn Hughes doesn't
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: get hit very often, and he shouldn't because he's so slick,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: he's so quick, he's such a beautiful skater.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: He got busted up last night.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: The Avs have the speed. Dallas doesn't have the speed.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: The Avs have the speed to get to him. There
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: was one play I know, licking and got him along
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: the end boards. I know that he turned into the hit,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: But there was a play where Hughes is going back
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: to his own end at pretty top speed and Logan
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: O'Connor catches him. Yeah, and then Bam gave him one
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: of these as they're as they're reproaching the pucket and
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: I'm like, he's not used to that, he's not used
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: to guys being able to line him up. And cal
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: mccarr is the same way, because yeah, because there's such
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: brilliant skaters and they can avoid these, you know, these
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: big things and this sort of thing. But it's really
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: the speed. The guys can't get there before you get there. Therefore,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: you have more more than a split second to make
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: your decision.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Can I can I ask you a question about that?
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Well, the Apps have the speed guys up and down
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: the line, and they have the physicality.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: And what we've learned from these playoffs basketball hockey doesn't matter.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: The aggressor wins the day. Maybe it was just flow
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the game. Do you think there's any part that was like, Hey,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: if you guys get around Hughes, I want him to
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: feel you shrink him in particular. Absolutely felt it felt
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: that way last well, that's what I was saying. It
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: felt that way last night that they were like, I
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: see five foot ten Quinn Hughes, who's incredibly good. I'm
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: gonna throw my body around. What doesn't matter how big
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: it is. Hey, guys, guys, what was I wanting the
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Nuggets to do? Did Jaydon McDaniels make him feel you?
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Correct, yep, make him feel you nothing cheap now asking
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: for cheap shots, but make him know you're there. That's all.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Watch the aggressor wins the day. Watching McKinnon do that
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: last night too, not just a Hughes, but then the
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: hit on Boldy towards the end of the game, which,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: by the way, shoulder and shoulder clean.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to get into that crap. Yeah, it's I.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Think from an all around standpoint, when's the last time
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: you see McKinnon play an all around game like that.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: McKinnon's amazing and he does a lot of fun stuff
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: with the puck on his stick, But moj I'm talking
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: about defensively doing what he did last night.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, he's he's playing with a purpose, as they say, yeah,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: his own and team purpose. VIC last thing in seven
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: game series. I've seen this a billion times because I've
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: been working for the Abs for damn near thirty years.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: A couple of games, you know, bang bang bang, right
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: when you get the game five in game six, that
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: gets friggin tiring real quick. If you're playing thirty minutes
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: a night and you're getting lit up thirty minutes a night,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I don't care who you war. That takes a toll
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: on a human being mentally and physically. You're like, God,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: I'm enough allround. I mean enough of this, And that's
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: how you win seven game series. And this Avalanche team
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: has been there and done that. I'm telling you, these
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: guys know how to play the damn game.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: Perhaps my favorite aspect to last night's win was the
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: reaction after the game from every player, everybody that took
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: that diace. No reaction, no smiles, nothing. There were only
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: six in, they got ten more to go.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: They know the goal. They don't care. They're not happy,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: not yet, not at all, not even content. A lot
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: more to discuss with this, Jared Bednard eight o'clock this morning. Now,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: much more to discuss in a second. But also, if
• 15:48

• 16:38
  Speaker 1: on the street stuff in the middle of the snow
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: outside the entrance to Ballerina, and he's going full moje
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: and it's it's hilarious, like he's overdressed, a bit overdressed.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: You're a bit dramatic. I mean it was snow. Everybody
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: who says something to him, he says back like it's
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: mos is in his element. And it's like, I got
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: a big smile on my face. I'm getting a kick
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: out of it. So I want you to watch. This
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: is about a minute long clip. Will pose it when
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: we have to. But now he go ahead, let's just start.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Sitting the whole thing. I was very professional at times.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Let's let's go, let's do it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: It's never snowing for a Colorado Avalanche second round playoff
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: game that I can remember in history. And as I'm
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: sitting out here freezing, and by the way, I don't
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: know who I made Mad, I hear you, brother, I
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: don't know who I made Mad to draw.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: The short straw.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: But I'm straight into it right now. Guys, I mean
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: right right into the teeth of it, right now. And
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: all these people are walking in there going forward. Dude,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: how you doing? Hey, what's up?
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Dune? Yea all right. So they're walking in.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: And I've been watching it the entire time waiting. This
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: half of their body is all covered in snow, and
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: this he is perfect because they're walking obviously, and the
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: snow's coming down. Well, I mean, if this guy's a
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: perfect example, look at.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: His hat not on. He's his hat crooked, but he's out.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: You gotta right now pod that guy. So he's just
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: going full mog. He's anybody who says something, hey, what's upbody?
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: And then.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: Then it's the smoothest elderly lady comes up, sweetest, beautiful,
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: sweet lady, someone who you would gladly help across the streets,
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: someone who just got out of church.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Somebody that you want, like I wanted her to bake
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: me cookies. I saw her. He was like you feel
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: like everybody's grandmother. Just a tiny, sweet elderly woman comes
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: on screens to beautiful soul. She's pumped. She sees the camera.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: She gives it a big, like howdy dooty wave, like
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: a big one like this, ready to deliver her best lifetime.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: And here's Moses.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I can't see out of his glasses, but this is
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: hockey weather man Minnesota.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: He got nothing on Kelcato.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, how you doing, ma'am?
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: You look cold?
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Dear you better get inside. Don't stay out here, catch
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: your death here, don't get your warm anyway, have a
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: great time to everybody.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Stop the fact like, first of all, maybe this is
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: an indictment on me. I didn't know. Don't catch your
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: death was a thing that people. I've never heard of
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: that term. I had to look it up.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: It looks it up, and I guess it's something that
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: young punks say to old people. Don't die on us
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: is what you were basically, don't die.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: The fact that you said that to the only person
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: that looked like they might have been ninety five years
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: old out of the thousands that were walking by you
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: is so unbelievably perfect. And what makes it even better
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: is I know that most did not mean it in
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the way that I am laughing hysterically about, which makes
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: it funnier. What is it with you and older women
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: on this show? What's going on?
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: Loretta you and Loretta have a few. Don't stay out here,
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: catch your death?
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: What is it?
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: What's the problem between I call her mam and dear.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I was genuinely concerned for you told her not to die.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: It's it's if you ever watch the movie Christmas Story,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: it's kind of an old timey lie. And you know, Randy,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: put your suit on and catch your death, you know
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: you it's it's a common, old fashioned way to stay
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: out of the cold. Get inside because it's gonna cause sickness,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: severe sickness.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I'll be right back.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Don't you go dying on me, severe cold or flu
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: or pneumonia or whatever. You know, you't want to catch
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: a chill. That's what I meant by it.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Here's what I want.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Did she survived? I hope to god she did. I'm
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: sure she did.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Here's what I want now. She seemed very happy to
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: be trying to track her down. Right now, here's what
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: I got.
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: I need somebody to find this woman. Yeah, this sweet,
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: beautiful elderly woman, just a lady looking for a soulful night.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: She was like four foot six, She was a shot,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: a little little thing. Yeah.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: She plays the organ and mass she might yeah or
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: she runs the bingo.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I know a guy like Greta or Ethel or something
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Vic, you cannot tell me that I'm not poppylar
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: with those old doorthy car It's something weird.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you. I just I went into bingo with
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: those old ladies. They're like, come on in, get you
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: some bingo. It's weird, Brett. There is a weird almost.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: But we have Margaret. We have we have Margaret. Yeah,
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: and listen to the program and she hates dude. When
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: I tell you Margaret, I don't know where she is.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe she'll text in today. Maybe she is done.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: But she's listened for a long time. And she's not
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: a super elderly woman. But I think she's in her seventies.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: And she said that to us before, and she hates
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: my guts. But the dynamic between you and the older
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: folk is little. It's it's out there man.
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: You You elicit emotion from older ladies, and I don't
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: know if it's that they see their exes in you
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: or I don't know what it is.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Maybe they look at your face and they think of
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: their warm glass. Shut the hell up.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I thought I was being nice and of all the
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: people to say don't catch your death, you find the
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: one that again, this beautiful, cute, elderly old woman.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: But out of all the people I saw there, that
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: was probably closest to death. How do you think she felt?
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: By the way, when she left, She's just there to
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: watch a hockey game.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: She's with her great she can't want to enjoy life,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: and so she who comes up and says, don't die
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: on us.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Now she came up to me, man, I didn't see she.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I was saying.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: She had a big plastic thing wrapped around her head.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: She probably couldn't hear me.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Here's what's great though. Her entrance on camera is just
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: vic vic. Look, it was just like as cute as
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: you could be. Don't catch your death, ma'am.
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: Oh God, anyway, you're gonna be on the front of
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: the Titanic anytime soon. Look out.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Look how cute she is. I know, all right.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: I find I was genuinely worried about her.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Dude. I'm like, dear, you gotta you gotta get inside, deer.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: It's cold out. We're gonna talk to bed and Art
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: eight o'clock. There's another video I want you to show.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Nelly pull up the other one because this is what
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I adore about the sport of hockey. As that game
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: started to get a little bit more chippy, Parker Kelly says,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: all right, Boldie, you want to get into this, Let's
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: get into it.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: And they start pushing and shovel is when a Hartman
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: is in the crease and he falls into wedge and
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: all that. So Boldie Boldie gets him first. Brett bullet
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: him first.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: But it's the reaction of Parker Kelly's like, all right,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: if you want to do this, and let's do this,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: and this is what makes hockey so great. Hit the
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: video there, please, Nellie.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: Describe it.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Here's a punch stop Parker Kelly throws a punch back,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: he misses, and he hits the refs lines of the
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: linesman square in the schnazz, right in the face, right there,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: square in the nose boom.
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: In any other sport, if it's intentional or not, you
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: touch a ref like that, you're getting the hell out
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: of here. If that happened in an NBA game where
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: a referee was struck by any player, that player would
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: be ejected, suspended, fined, sentenced to thirty years who knows.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: After that it would be immeasurable what would happen to
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: that player? But in hockey, and the beauty of this
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: sport is not only is it part of the sport,
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: just layered into the sport.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: The referee almost wears it like a badge of honor.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: Like this is what we do here.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: He eats a punch to the face, continues to try
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: and break up the fight, and then at the end
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: of it, nobody goes anywhere. Stay on the ice, boys,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: We're still playing hockey. No penalties, no nothing. By the way, Boldie,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: who did catch one a little bit after this, I
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: don't know. Does it go all the way to there,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Nelly where Parker throws a sort of last one on him. Yeah,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: this punch right here, you just missed it. Oh, just
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: missed it.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Baldi takes a little bit of a dive there.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Let's be honest on that one. You catch one a
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: little bit in the face and then you drop to
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: the ground like he had sniped. Okay, relax, well.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't think the punch that hit him
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: was harder than the punchs that hit the linesman.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: The linesman, I mean, he ate that jab. It was bam,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: his face went back. That was a good one to
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: have a player punch a ref in the face unintentionally
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: and have no repercussions for it. Well, the linesman's getting
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: in there. They know what that's their job, the job
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: break stuff up there. You don't want to take one.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Friendly fire is part of the job description. You're gonna
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: get it all. I'm telling you. If Steve Javiy gets
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: hit in the face trying to break up a fight
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: between Shack and Charles Barkley right here, he's injecting somebody.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: If Bill Kennedy has to deal with that, trust me,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: after review, you'd.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Get one exactly.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: I was punched in the face thereby ejecting four players, yeah,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: from that team. But I again, I don't know if
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: you guys saw it preceded that, by the way, because
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I noticed this, and I think part of the reason
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: why people are pissed at Boldie. Did you see it, Moses,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: he gave Weggie a little bit of well yeah, he
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: sprayed him.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hardcore. Yeah, And it's what you do. It's Stanley vic.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: I don't have to tell either of you. Stanley Cook
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: playoffs hockey, virtually everything.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Goes man, No I love it. That's the whole point
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: to this though. It's just like it's I know, Minnesota
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: fans were like looking for us, it's a boarding call
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: on Boldie or how does Parker Kelly not go to
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: the box for that or whatever, and I'm just sitting there.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: I'm like, this is what you want. You want the
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: playoffs to be this way.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Look, I I know I sound like some sort of
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: purest but hockey snob when I talk about this kind
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: of thing in Brett. Yeah that too, Okay, whatever did
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: you call them?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Inbred? I'm met slash houses. I know it's it's a
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: big time glass.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: I gave the day that being said to me. In
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: the way I've always looked at it from day one
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: when I started working in the National Hockey League is
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: that you're playing for immortality. You can have a Larry
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: O'Brien Trophy and you can be known as a champion
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: or a super Bowl Trophy of Vince Loabarti trophy and
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: be known as a champion of that World Series thing
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: with all the prongs on it, which is weird. It's
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: just a weird trophy. But the Stanley Cup has your
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: name put on it and your name is going to
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: be on the cup for as long as you're alive,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: and after you're dead, and then eventually when they have
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: to remove that ring after all those decades, it's gonna
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: go on the Hockey Hall of Fame, and anybody who
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: goes there is going to be able to look up
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: and see that your name. One. There's no there's no
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Lari O'Brien. It's inscribed and it goes around to everybody else.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: The Stanley CuPy is immortality. It's unique in that respect,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: in that regard, and man, when you're playing for it,
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: which is why he guy's got a hangnail, you slash
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: his hand. Guy's got an ankle, You kick his leg,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: guy's got the shoulder, You bust them as hard as
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: you can.
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: I know that the Avs have made some wonderful acquisitions,
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: and they did so at the deadline this year. The
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: addition of Nick Waugh, quiet sneaky, just great clutch player.
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: I mean, we've seen some guys come in and make
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: a difference. Right the defenseman from Edmonton, what's his name,
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: the Edmonton.
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: Brett Kulak, Well he came from Pittsburgh, but yeah, he
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: wasn't ed Edmonton for right, I've.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Seen it all. But I'm telling you right now the
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: reason why the Avs are where they are, and it's
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: amazing that sometimes you need a big picture to figure
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: this out, and the big picture's been taken and I
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: see it.
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: The difference is Gabriel Landeskok. Yeah, the difference is and
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: I'll just stop right there. The difference with this team
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: today versus the last couple of years is this guy
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: sets a tone, makes his mark behind the scenes in
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: the game.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: He does a lot of little things. He's the difference
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: maker on this team.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know if we have when either kill mc
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: carr sound from last night or even the Nathan McKinnon sound. Yeah,
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: I get that, Okay. Well about Gabe, well the watch
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: you give me a little.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: It's just a void you can't feel.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: We waited a long time for him to come back,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: and it was worth the weight. You know, every month he.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: Got better this season. It's a lot of time to
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: come back from and obviously as a person, just a
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: human awesome to have around. Yeah, I mean that's enough. Yeah.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, He's one of my good friends. So it makes
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: me happy to see him every day. And I think
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: it makes the whole team happy.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: He he defied finds what a true leader is, especially
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: in this sport. And I don't think we've given enough
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: credit to him. And I think the players, they recognize
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: the recovery process, They understand what he went through, and
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: I think it emboldens his teammates as much as it
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: does him.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: And you see it. You see it on the ice.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: We talked about his record, what's his record? Now it's
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: another w to it. I mean, that's just ridiculous in itself.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: His record. When he's on the ice with this this
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: hockey team, he they go as he goes.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: And if the Avs go on to win another Stanley
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Cup and they're ten wins away, now I'm gonna give
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: a ton of credit to the fact that that void
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: is finally filled.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna show you why I am less of a
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: mentally accomplished human as supposed to Gablandis gog Achilles explodes. Fine, okay,
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: then you're in that boot. You can't do anything for him,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: you can't even walk, and you're in a boot for
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: another month whatever, by a month and a half, and
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: you're this rehab da da da da da If I
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: had to go through that for three years, trying to
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: in multiple Let's say I had to have it repaired
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: again because he did remember he had surgery in this
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: and that finally they had to put the dead guy
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: in him. Yeah, that was the last resort.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Dudes.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: If I had to go Vic, if I had to
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: go through that for three years to try to come
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: back and play around of golf with Vick Lombardi and
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Brett Kane, I would probably jump off a building. I'm
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: not kidding. I mean like I was bitching and most
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: excuse my language. I was whining and moaning, you know,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: through four or five six months I was. I mean
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: before I finally was like, I think I'm gonna be good.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: I mean it's three years, dudes. I mean so, guys, Yeah,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: they recognize how difficult that process was.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I want to every time we talk about this, I
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: want to mention something else. Yes, it's the recovery process
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: and how long it took for him to get back
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: and the fact that I think Bennar mentioned it yesterday.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: If you kind of ignore the couple of games he
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: played last year in the playoffs, and you take into
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: account the full summer, it's like three and a half
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: years since he actually played. Yep, it's not just about
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: the injury at that point anymore. He's an old man now,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: like he's three and a half years older. And I
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: will give you anybody in the sport, because when did
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: he get hurt? Was he twenty nine? Twenty eight?
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Right around there?
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, give me somebody who was in their late twenties
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: about to turn thirty and tell me if their game
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: three and a half years later is better or as
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: good as it was three and a half years prior
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: to that.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: It's the answer is usually nope, right, it's it's rare.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: It's it was twenty nine. I believe what it had happened.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: It's rare. Is he was he No, he was showing
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: that when it happened. But it was twenty two, so
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: he was twenty nine years old when he stopped playing hockey.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: That's corriss. Yeah, I mean brought Nelson's still pretty damn good.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: He's thirty three, much, he's thirty three, and he looks
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: kind of.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: Like, which in human years is young. In hockey years,
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: it's tough, but I mean your thirties, it's a lot
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: of wear and tear in this physical game.
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: So I would gather that most most people in his
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: position would have given up.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Oh think, I don't think there's any doubts most people
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: would have given up. Are you kidding?
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: He did not, And not only did he continue on
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: that track, he's got this team back to where it
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: was when he left.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Well, if I understand this right, he almost had kind
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: of an out there, like you can be a normal guy.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: You just can't be a hockey player anymore if you
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: want to stop. Isn't that isn't that.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Kind of what happened? I mean, no, no, no, When
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: when he finally put the dead guy in him, it
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: was it's a really really good chance you can just
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: be a normal.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: Dad, That's what I'm saying.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hangout, But but as far as the hockey is concerned,
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: that's a long shot.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, he looks. I mean, you know, you don't
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: even think about that anymore.
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: Well, remember there was another professional athlete who had a
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: similar it's not the exact same procedure by the same
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: doctor at the same time Lonzo Ball went through.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: It was Alonzo Balls five weeks ahead.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: And he's never been the same as Gabe yep three
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: ZH three five four ninety five bednar and twenty minutes
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: stick around. Oh guys, this is so perfect. This should
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: be the theme to the Avalanche. And like the motto
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: of the playoffs, creaking up Nels, creak it up. No, no, no,
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: most listen to me. Listen.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Oh this is a Chili Peppers.

• 34:42
  Speaker 1: That's oh, that is, don't catch your death.
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: This is a a plea to Kevin Shockey, our program director,
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: who may or may not be listening right now. I'm
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: not sure what his patterns are on snowy days like this,

  Speaker 1: Listen, listen, this is the it's the shirt you need.
• 35:06

• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Avalanche hockey, Don't catch your death.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: I love it. It's a terrible slogan.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: It's wonderful. I think it's perfect. You're pleading with the
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: other team. It's like, guys, you're playing again stuff. Don't
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: catch your death. I think it's perfect. So it's a
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: friendly it's a friendly plea to the opposition is trying
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: to be nice. But don't die. We'll get back to
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: the abs.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: I was trying. I was. I was genuinely concerned for
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: that lady, Okay, because I like it tight, you like
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: you like the schmied to show off the guns.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Dude, I got. I got a shirt that's underneath the
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: sweatshirt right now that is exactly like that. It's very uncomfortable.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: It's one of those it's too tight. It's actually my size,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: but it's too tight. Uh. Anyway, Bednar's going to join
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: us in a few minutes here, so stay tuned. At
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: the top of the hour in the meantime game last
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: night between the Lakers and the Thunder, the Thunder dominate
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: because the Thunder are They're just going to roll through
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: people for I guess the next decade. But did you
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: happen to see former Nugget Jared Vanderbilt in that game?
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, that was so ugly, dude, I saw
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: live and I wanted to vomit. So he goes up
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: to try and block a shot. He catches his pinky
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: on the side of the backboard, and that thing looks
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: like it just snaps. Yeah, so they're calling it dislocated.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know how it can be dislocated. When I
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: saw a still shot of his bone sticking out of
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: his face, it's broken. That thing's completely it's a compound fracture. Yeah,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: it's not dislocated.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: That you know.
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: If you've ever played enough sports, especially ones where you
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: need to use your hands, basketball, football, you're gonna have
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: dislocated fingers. I've just located every single one of mine.
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, look at this one.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Look at this my ring my ring finger. Yeah, this
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: one is can you see bread? It's still crooked sideways yep,
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: and foot playing football. It went like it bent like
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: this sideways happens all the time. Doc put it back,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: but it never it was never straight again.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: So there's dislocations like you know, you can knock it back,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: and then there's what happened to Jared Vanderbilt last night
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: where the finger basically came off his hand. Yeah, Like,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: it was gross.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: It's gross because you can see the actual white bone
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: as the as the middle part of his from the
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: middle part down to the end of his finger is
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: going this way, the bone is sticking out that way.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, and he was in so much pain. I felt
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: so bad for the kid. I really did. He was
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: just holding it. I mean, he was in so much pain.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: They couldn't even get him off the court. Yeah. Well,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: I saw like the replay, I was like, oh, it's
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: a dislocated finger. He looks like he's really hurt. And
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: then when he walked over towards the bench and the
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: entire thunder bench all tournament, oh like this, I was like, well,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: what actually happened. Then I saw a still shot later
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: that bone.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: I was like, eh, well, you've seen it when Robin
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Ventura when his foot went backwards. Anytime a guy's foot
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: goes backwards, right, Yeah, and it stays backwards.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't happen. That happened with Dak a couple
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: of years ago, didn't it when he broke his ankle, his.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: Foot went backwards. Yeah, anytime a guy's foot, like you
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: can see knees and you know you're awe. But the
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: guy he's laying on the ground, his leg looks normal, right,
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: But when a foot goes backwards, you get the guys
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: going ooh.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: They cover their face with their glove and that kind
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: of thing, like when players start to turn away. Yeah,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: you know how bad it is.
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: But in terms of the game itself, I was watching
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: some of that while watching the Aves, and frankly, it
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: was a bit boring because it was only a matter
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: of time. The Lakers just don't have enough with Luca out.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: You never know what Luca in the lineup. They hung tough,
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: they were within ten going to the fourth. I don't
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: know if Luca would make a difference that much, but
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: Boston Reeves can't go three to sixteen on the floor.
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: He was bad, and it just looked like Oklahoma City
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: was twenty. Yeah, just sort of because they can Yeah
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: like that, I just okay, see you know, okay, see
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: he's the avalanche right now.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: I hate to say this. I don't even know if
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: this is the proper feeling. It's not that I want
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: the Lakers to win the series. I don't want that,
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: but I do hate the thunder enough or I'm like,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: don't let them just walk through. Yeah, it's so funny.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: My wife and I had this conversation last night.
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: They turned the game on and I had two and
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: she's watching the Aves and this, and she goes, go, go,
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: and I'm like, what are you going?
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: She goes to the Lakers. I go, no, no, no, no, no,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: we don't do that in this family. No no, no
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: no no no no no no no no no. It
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: might be tested. I want to be tested.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: No.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: But and this is where I've been traumatized as a child,
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: perhaps and call it a nug life.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: And no point in my life will I ever, ever,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: ever root for the Lakers.
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: Against any opposition out there, no matter how much I
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: hate the opposition.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: It just doesn't. It's not gonna happen.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: Ever, and I don't know if how many people are
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: wired that way, but if the Lakers take on Satan,
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: I'm seriously.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, i'd have to Satan's got the mattribute. I've
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: gotta be.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: I've gotta be, I've got to be right. It would
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: cause me to pause.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: Vic?
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: Wait? What if the Lakers played Satan Vix like I
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: mean he was told not to eat the apple. It's
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: not I'm telling you, it just doesn't work.
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: It not in my family. It's not gonna happen. And
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: then she hit me with, well, your grandkid's probably gonna
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: be Lakers fan, which I just broke the tubble.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: How did your wife, of all people hit you with that?
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Because she wanted to hurt me?
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: She did.
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: I can tell she did wanted to hurt me deeply.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: So anyway that would do it. The Thunder take a
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: one oh series lead as well.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: Did you see before we get to the coaching at
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: the top, did you see who won the National Hockey
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: League's draft lottery?
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Toronto Toronto Maple.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: Leafs win the draft. I don't know Austin Matthews. He's
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: come out and said, I don't know. I don't know
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: about next year. I don't know yet.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Number one, WHOA WHOA?
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: There's no, there's not a there's there's some really, mckennon's
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: probably the guy. There's no McKinnon, there's no Celebrini, there's
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: no you know, Matthew Schaeffer is going to win the
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: Calder for the New York Islanders as a defenseman at
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: twenty three goals as a rookie to eighteen year old defenseman,
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: it's total, dude, But there's not. I mean, there's really
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: good players, but not that guy.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: It's really hard.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, they want, and they wanted, they got Austin Matthews.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: Who is that guy? It's really hard for people to
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: not try and connect some dots here. Okay, it's the
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: same thing as when Dallas traded away Luca and then
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: they got Cooper Flag. It's like, what you're making this
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: far too difficult for me not to be like, well,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: is there something?
• 42:32
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's two days after the most contentious news
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: conference and for one of the most rabid fan bases
• 42:40
  Speaker 5: in your league, or the most rabid fan base in
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: your league, I guess.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: But people are in there watching the balls bounce around.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: You can't.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, I don't know how in the world
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: you'd even think about that. I don't know. I don't
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: think that's the case. But but you know it's it's
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: crazy how the balls bounce sometimes.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: It picks first. Would get rid of that, but you
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: know that's just me.
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: Well that's that's yeah, that's not no, because you got
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: a Guardigan's tanking.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: No, it seems to be really helping. I just I
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: hate I hate a lot I hate lotteries so dumb.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: If you want to do it for like the bottom
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: four teams or something, fine, I don't want fifteen teams
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: having a shot at the.
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: Dude that that lottery.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: It's built.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: What you've got today, you.
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: Still could have gotten Kale, what you still could have
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: gotten it despite the lottery.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, Nate was one, it was a two.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: Kale was just fortune.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the year that they got Kale, they were supposed
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: to be number one. Correct, Okay, but if they were
• 43:49
  Speaker 4: number one, where they've still taken Kale.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: I think it's a good question. I think you know
• 43:55
