Transcript
- 0:22Speaker 1: Good anyting, everybody. Welcome to another edition for a Thursday
- 0:26Speaker 1: Sports and Change. My name is Scott Morgan, a Florida
- 0:27Speaker 1: City Medmouth. Please do be joined by my co host
- 0:30Speaker 1: Rod Peterson. Rod and I had a will of a
- 0:32Speaker 1: time over at the Rod Peterson Show in Boca Raton,
- 0:35Speaker 1: and we're picking it up here tonight on the softboard
- 0:37Speaker 1: of Tribute Broadcasting Network on the Sports and Shape Rock.
- 0:40Speaker 1: First of all, I want you to give our viewers
- 0:43Speaker 1: and listeners an opportunity to find out what we talked
- 0:47Speaker 1: about this afternoon over in Folk Raton over on the
- 0:51Speaker 1: Rod Peterson Show. Great to talk about it, but go
- 0:53Speaker 1: ahead and letry because we covered a wide range of things.
- 0:57Speaker 2: That's what we do. And thanks for coming down, Scott.
- 0:59Speaker 2: I've appreciated it. My viewers really love having you on.
- 1:03Speaker 2: And it's national television in Canada if your viewers don't
- 1:07Speaker 2: know in thirty two US states. So what did we cover?
- 1:10Speaker 2: We do NHL leftovers, as I'd like to say. We
- 1:13Speaker 2: talked about last night's NHL games, spend a lot of
- 1:15Speaker 2: time on the Connor McDavid three game suspension. We talked
- 1:18Speaker 2: about the NFL Conference Championships this weekend, You made your
- 1:22Speaker 2: predictions even though I didn't ask for them. You jumped
- 1:24Speaker 2: in form, which is what I was leading you to do.
- 1:26Speaker 2: You were one step ahead of me as usual. We
- 1:29Speaker 2: talked about the NFL kickoff and should the Canadian Football
- 1:32Speaker 2: League in college adopt it? That was the poll question.
- 1:35Speaker 2: You gave your thoughts, I gave mine. We talked college football.
- 1:40Speaker 2: You were there for an hour and twenty minutes. Does
- 1:42Speaker 2: that sound like everything?
- 1:43Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a job summarizing and the whole thing. One
- 1:45Speaker 1: other thing I want to ask you about it before
- 1:47Speaker 1: we get to the agenda at hand. Rod, where can
- 1:49Speaker 1: everybody find the Rod Peterson Show? Give it to him.
- 1:52Speaker 2: It's on the Game Plus television network all across Canada,
- 1:56Speaker 2: thirty two US states, including I believe, Michigan and some
- 1:59Speaker 2: areas of Florida, and on YouTube as well under the
- 2:02Speaker 2: Rod Peterson Show.
- 2:03Speaker 1: So if you haven't subscribed to Rod Peterson's YouTube channel, folks,
- 2:07Speaker 1: please go out there and do so. I enjoyed him
- 2:10Speaker 1: as my co host. So we have a lot of
- 2:11Speaker 1: projects that we're working on. And rober Than I have
- 2:13Speaker 1: been doing this for about six months, but we have
- 2:15Speaker 1: a lot more things I had in the coming months.
- 2:18Speaker 1: We're just getting everything started with our brand as well.
- 2:20Speaker 1: So with that said, let's go ahead and take care
- 2:23Speaker 1: of the agenda at hand. I love your teaser though
- 2:25Speaker 1: on Twitter. I mean, how you put me on the
- 2:27Speaker 1: spot mentioned by Connor McDavid thing, So why don't you
- 2:31Speaker 1: make reference about what we said on Twitter? But I'm
- 2:34Speaker 1: going to let everybody know is the NHL using Connor
- 2:36Speaker 1: McDavid as an example is the title of this broadcast rod.
- 2:40Speaker 1: So go ahead, I'm leading you into Twitter take over
- 2:43Speaker 1: from there.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Well, this was Scott's hot take today for our Canadian
- 2:47Speaker 2: viewers and hockey fans. Than Scott said, the NHL by
- 2:50Speaker 2: suspending Connor McDavid, who, let's kiddy, let's be honest, is
- 2:55Speaker 2: the face of the National Hockey League right now. He is,
- 2:58Speaker 2: and they suspended him three games games for cross checking
- 3:01Speaker 2: Vancouver's Connor Garland in the face on Saturday night on
- 3:04Speaker 2: Hockey Night in Canada. If for for your own reasons,
- 3:07Speaker 2: you feel they're making an example of him, I feel
- 3:09Speaker 2: the NHL got it wrong. I feel that there are
- 3:12Speaker 2: different rules for different people. I don't like it. I
- 3:14Speaker 2: don't make the rules, but they're just are I think
- 3:17Speaker 2: is setting a very dangerous precedent Scott. As we get
- 3:19Speaker 2: towards the Stanley Cup playoffs, the Orders not only want
- 3:22Speaker 2: to get back to the Stanley Cup Final, but they
- 3:23Speaker 2: want to win it this year. And if teams realize
- 3:26Speaker 2: they can maul Connor McDavid to the point that he
- 3:28Speaker 2: gets he boils over and takes a stick in fraction,
- 3:31Speaker 2: a five minute match penalty and a subsequent suspension, that's
- 3:34Speaker 2: not a good sign for the Evonton Orders. You know,
- 3:38Speaker 2: so I double down and really think the NHL got
- 3:41Speaker 2: it wrong.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know what, Rod, I totally understand where
- 3:45Speaker 1: you're coming from. But let's face reality. We all know
- 3:47Speaker 1: hockey is a physical sport and players sakey is going
- 3:51Speaker 1: to become an issue in any sport. But there's a
- 3:53Speaker 1: great deal of physicality. Whether you like the suspension or
- 3:58Speaker 1: agree with it or don't, I understand the NHL's position
- 4:02Speaker 1: on this, I really do. Again, it's for subject for
- 4:06Speaker 1: both of us having opinions on it. A player safety
- 4:09Speaker 1: is what you're really looking at, and that's why they
- 4:11Speaker 1: made an example out of them. And you know, if
- 4:14Speaker 1: you can make an example out of the best player
- 4:17Speaker 1: in the league, you're gonna make it set a message
- 4:20Speaker 1: to the rest of the players. If we can suspend
- 4:22Speaker 1: tinn or we can suspend you.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Isn't that sad? Again? The orders are on a slide down.
- 4:29Speaker 2: They've got the Vancouver Canucks in there tonight. They need
- 4:32Speaker 2: their best player, Scott to the listen in Canada. And
- 4:37Speaker 2: you spend enough time living in Detroit. You're honorary Canadian citizen,
- 4:42Speaker 2: you know.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Too.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you see how the Canadian media covers this.
- 4:47Speaker 2: Everybody's got an opinion on this. Everybody's got a perspective
- 4:50Speaker 2: on this. And my god, I hope the NHL is
- 4:53Speaker 2: okay with us questioning them. I mean, you're saying you
- 4:56Speaker 2: see where they're coming from. I really don't. But that's
- 4:58Speaker 2: why I've never worked in the league office. I've never
- 5:01Speaker 2: held that type of role.
- 5:03Speaker 1: I mean, I.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Understand the fighting. They feel that's bad for They banned
- 5:07Speaker 2: fighting because why for players safety? Or because it sends
- 5:11Speaker 2: a bad message to the fans. Why why is fighting
- 5:14Speaker 2: frowned upon? Because that's what led Connorick gave it to do.
- 5:17Speaker 2: What he did the other night you watched hockey in
- 5:18Speaker 2: the eighties, Dave Samenco would have punched out Connor Garland's Lights.
- 5:23Speaker 2: You can't do that anymore. Why does the NHL frown
- 5:25Speaker 2: on fighting in your mind?
- 5:28Speaker 1: Well, you know what, they have more physicality than the NBA.
- 5:31Speaker 1: I mean, and I'm not I'm not dodging your question.
- 5:34Speaker 1: I used to love fighting, and I know you did too.
- 5:36Speaker 1: I want to we're going and this is a segue
- 5:38Speaker 1: to where we're going to go later. So let's not
- 5:40Speaker 1: over jump the boundaries. But the broad Street Bully Bullies
- 5:44Speaker 1: and the Dead Wings defining what an interesting rivalry roles
- 5:47Speaker 1: between two teams that were so far apart in this standing.
- 5:51Speaker 1: So I get that. We all talk about the Dave
- 5:53Speaker 1: Souls and the what is it Kelly? What's his name?
- 5:58Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember for Philadelphia Dave shows Bob Battleship Kelly. Yeah,
- 6:05Speaker 1: Bob Kelly. That's that's where it's going. So I understand it.
- 6:09Speaker 1: But why Well, because obviously they turned it into a
- 6:11Speaker 1: European style game, is what they've done. Remember a long
- 6:14Speaker 1: time ago, they had that ice ery, had those extra
- 6:17Speaker 1: red lines, and they got rid of them so that
- 6:19Speaker 1: you can patternize it as lore of a European style game.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I get it. Well, let's face it, I'll take hockey
- 6:25Speaker 1: physicality that they have now over the pandycake pattycake business
- 6:29Speaker 1: that they have in the NBA all day long. I
- 6:32Speaker 1: really will and that's a compliment to hockey, it really,
- 6:36Speaker 1: really really is. So why that's it? That's the one imagination.
- 6:43Speaker 1: But I know what they did with mc david, and
- 6:46Speaker 1: they're just trying to send a message round. We can
- 6:48Speaker 1: agree or disagree. Yeah, neither of us don't work in
- 6:50Speaker 1: the league office. But that's what happened. They made an
- 6:53Speaker 1: example and that's why this is the appropriate title of
- 6:55Speaker 1: the show. That's why we had a pretty nice conversation
- 6:58Speaker 1: earlier today on your Rod Peterson Show about it, and
- 7:01Speaker 1: it's made it the story of the week in the
- 7:03Speaker 1: National Hockey League. Is what it's done. Connor McDavid suspended
- 7:07Speaker 1: three games. And not like you've going to Cable. You've
- 7:10Speaker 1: got to sit home and watch TV and watch it,
- 7:13Speaker 1: you know Cable. I've never been at Cable. I've only
- 7:16Speaker 1: been to Acapoco and can't done. Not the worst place
- 7:19Speaker 1: to go here in Mexico. But with all due respect,
- 7:23Speaker 1: the way I look at it is what I've been saying.
- 7:27Speaker 1: They made an example of them of a cross check
- 7:29Speaker 1: as a crosscheck.
- 7:30Speaker 2: I understand it, and they really mean business. This is
- 7:33Speaker 2: a case of I don't know if you have kids
- 7:36Speaker 2: that are non stop, but my parents used to say
- 7:37Speaker 2: to me, and I said it to mine, this is
- 7:39Speaker 2: going to hurt me more than it hurts you when
- 7:41Speaker 2: the belt comes out, you know what I mean. Like
- 7:43Speaker 2: they didn't want to sideline Connor McDavid for three games.
- 7:47Speaker 2: I understand that. So as Daney as I think you are,
- 7:51Speaker 2: you might really be on to something. What I'm saying is, okay,
- 7:55Speaker 2: I don't subscribe to that line of thinking because they're
- 7:58Speaker 2: hurting themselves. The guy's got to defend himself because there's
- 8:02Speaker 2: nobody to do it stand up for him. So he
- 8:04Speaker 2: got a five minute match in the game and a
- 8:06Speaker 2: game of conduct that goes on his record. I know
- 8:09Speaker 2: there was only three seconds left in the game what
- 8:10Speaker 2: had happened, but that goes on his record. So anyways,
- 8:13Speaker 2: everybody's got an opinion. I don't like it. I'll never
- 8:16Speaker 2: see where the NHL is coming from, but I hope
- 8:18Speaker 2: we can still be friends. How about that.
- 8:20Speaker 1: You and I are friends. We're brothers here.
- 8:23Speaker 2: You know me in the NHL, me and the NHL.
- 8:25Speaker 1: You and I are all, yeah, But here's the thing,
- 8:26Speaker 1: all right, So what Connor McDavid won't win the Lady
- 8:29Speaker 1: Date Trophy. Seriously really, I mean I've never heard of
- 8:33Speaker 1: trophy for sparksmanship Lady Dan Trophy. All right, so it's
- 8:38Speaker 1: the only trophy you won't have an a trophy. Game's got
- 8:40Speaker 1: everything else.
- 8:41Speaker 2: It was a little weird. I always thought it was
- 8:44Speaker 2: a little weird movie.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Yeah, let me say, Carol check is a cross check
- 8:49Speaker 1: rod thoughhan Or hollya slice it and he got three
- 8:52Speaker 1: games out of it. We could justify it all we want.
- 8:55Speaker 1: We talked earlier on your show today and I don't
- 8:58Speaker 1: know whether it we fully in Cortin needed to blow
- 9:00Speaker 1: on it. But I remember years ago when Henry Bouche
- 9:04Speaker 1: got hit by the butt end of the stick at
- 9:06Speaker 1: Dave Forbes, and I remember and that practically ended Mushe's
- 9:11Speaker 1: career was never the same and Forest was merely criminally
- 9:13Speaker 1: charged for this. That that was bad.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, of course. Well, by the way, Connor McDavid
- 9:19Speaker 2: has never won the Lady Big Trophy, but your guy
- 9:22Speaker 2: Pavel Dad Suke won it four years in a row
- 9:25Speaker 2: from six to nine pretty much had a had a
- 9:29Speaker 2: lock on it. McDavid's never won it. Wayne Gretzky did
- 9:32Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety nine, also ninety four, two ninety one.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Well, when was the last time in Detroit Redlands goaltender
- 9:38Speaker 1: won a Bezititt Trophy? That's a no no. I believe
- 9:46Speaker 1: it goes back to Roger Krozer, Terry Tchak, look it up.
- 9:49Speaker 1: I got him the night. I don't know the answer,
- 9:52Speaker 1: but I know it's been a long time because we've
- 9:53Speaker 1: had a lot of good goaltenders and came to go
- 9:56Speaker 1: Ahead and google up bezit the trophy. Oh yeah, okay,
- 10:00Speaker 1: go ahead is a Krozer or Sawchuk.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Well, I'm sold. You gotta go back a long ways.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's why I brought the question out.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Hashak brone seven.
- 10:12Speaker 1: He was now for Detroit. Didn't he win it for Buffalo?
- 10:16Speaker 2: It says his name, it doesn't say.
- 10:17Speaker 1: No he was Buffalo. Then. Man, you looking like a
- 10:21Speaker 1: buffalo right now?
- 10:23Speaker 2: Why didn't expect to be going down this road?
- 10:27Speaker 1: Well you never expected anything to go down the road?
- 10:29Speaker 1: Does That's what makes it such a great team? Brother? Yeah,
- 10:33Speaker 1: keep talking, Yeah, I will keep talking. I have a
- 10:35Speaker 1: feeling it's either I don't think it was Glenn Hall.
- 10:39Speaker 1: It's either Terry Sawchuk or Roger Krozer, one of those
- 10:42Speaker 1: three guys.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Hashchik was the saber all three of those years. So
- 10:48Speaker 2: we're going back a really.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Long I want to say, back into the sixties.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Rot at least that is not a good sign for you.
- 10:55Speaker 1: It was Terry so well, that's what I'm saying.
- 10:57Speaker 2: It was Terry Sadchuk in nineteen fifty. You weren't even
- 11:01Speaker 2: born yet.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mentioned the name. And by the way,
- 11:04Speaker 1: Mark Meyridai, thanks a lot for being in it. And
- 11:07Speaker 1: he's not buying into McDavid either. And you know what
- 11:10Speaker 1: great stuff. Mark, He's gonna be on the show. Probably
- 11:12Speaker 1: Mark Meredal'll probably be on here at least two or
- 11:14Speaker 1: three times a month to join us here on the
- 11:17Speaker 1: Sports Exchange. I'm glad to have you on. What's that
- 11:20Speaker 1: Rodney the butcher? The butcher. Yeah, that's how you know, Well,
- 11:25Speaker 1: I boughts are different b B B. Yeah, he's the barber.
- 11:27Speaker 1: But I was right about Sawschuck. I knew it was
- 11:30Speaker 1: either Sawchuck or Crozier. I didn't think it was Glenn Hall.
- 11:33Speaker 1: But that's what I'm saying. The Red Wings haven't got
- 11:35Speaker 1: as trophy this show for it. But I'll tell you what.
- 11:38Speaker 1: They have a Lady Baines. They got North trophies, but
- 11:41Speaker 1: they don't have really seriously a Dolly's Trophy. Yeah they want,
- 11:47Speaker 1: but yet they want for to Stanley Tupps.
- 11:48Speaker 2: Guys gonna say you got all the Stanley Cups in
- 11:50Speaker 2: the last thirty years, so quick complaining.
- 11:54Speaker 1: I'm not coming. I didn't think it's hilarious. That's all
- 11:57Speaker 1: A great goaltender, you know, I forgot about Mike Barnett,
- 12:01Speaker 1: forget about Kris of Hods Good and all those guys.
- 12:04Speaker 1: They're pretty good Goldens, but obviously the other guys are better.
- 12:07Speaker 1: But the Wings got the rings finality. And I love
- 12:10Speaker 1: the shirt.
- 12:10Speaker 2: By the way, that is a very you think you
- 12:13Speaker 2: make the shirt look better than it is, to be honest,
- 12:16Speaker 2: but you came into the studio today, I was like, Wow,
- 12:19Speaker 2: I love the Wings gear man. That's I love that franchise.
- 12:22Speaker 2: I've never cheered for them. When I have a mondo
- 12:26Speaker 2: respect for the Detroit Red.
- 12:27Speaker 1: Wings, Thank you. I appreciate that. Well. My buddy George Richards,
- 12:31Speaker 1: when I had him on our show on the show
- 12:34Speaker 1: before he ended up showing me some Detroit Red Wings
- 12:38Speaker 1: media guides or program. So you know, Georgia is one
- 12:40Speaker 1: of my closest friends down in the area, and he
- 12:43Speaker 1: has Red Wings are a proud franchise. A lot of
- 12:45Speaker 1: people respect him in South Florida. They really do. I mean,
- 12:47Speaker 1: obviously the Florida Panthers have done a great job as
- 12:50Speaker 1: of late, but they've always thrown pretty good crowds on
- 12:53Speaker 1: the Red Wings are there, and you don't know half
- 12:54Speaker 1: the crowds in red and white versus the other way,
- 12:57Speaker 1: so it's always a good turnout. I've seen a lot
- 12:59Speaker 1: of those games. But the whole idea is right, Ron,
- 13:03Speaker 1: We're all we're talking about the whole thing. And Mary
- 13:05Speaker 1: Day brings in some unbelievable comments Andy, Kanye, watch you
- 13:08Speaker 1: get all of marks mary Day's comments up. I really
- 13:11Speaker 1: want to talk about it because this guy is going
- 13:13Speaker 1: to be on our show. He really is a great player.
- 13:16Speaker 1: He is about himself. Thank you, brother, Well problem anytime
- 13:20Speaker 1: a man? Thanks Rod. What another Panthers looking at for
- 13:23Speaker 1: Marrow and mart seventh? Okay, what else do we have?
- 13:26Speaker 1: And he doesn't quite agree with you on the other
- 13:28Speaker 1: one that was above it, So keep going Scott makes
- 13:32Speaker 1: me smile, cleaning him. Well, that's nice of you, see
- 13:35Speaker 1: light and appreciate that. So what else do we have?
- 13:37Speaker 1: And by the way, ten sixteen left in the second period,
- 13:39Speaker 1: Detroit Reveling four montro and Eadians one. So that may
- 13:43Speaker 1: be one of the games that I actually got right.
- 13:45Speaker 1: You'll have to give me my report card probably tomorrow
- 13:47Speaker 1: when you me. Yeah. So, so, Kendy, what was the
- 13:51Speaker 1: other one? Yeah? So we talked about McDavid. We've covered
- 13:54Speaker 1: that a lot of ground. But a cross check is
- 13:57Speaker 1: a cross check. That's how it's the fine. Now we'
- 14:00Speaker 1: not like the logic behind it all is another story,
- 14:03Speaker 1: and we could talk about this whole subject all day long,
- 14:06Speaker 1: but we're not gonna do it. But I think we've
- 14:07Speaker 1: done a really magnificent job covering it now a little
- 14:10Speaker 1: alone earlier on the Rod Peterson Show, and by at
- 14:13Speaker 1: the end of the broadcast, you're going to let everybody
- 14:15Speaker 1: know how you're gonna find it yet again, so those
- 14:17Speaker 1: that are tuning in a little bit later in the
- 14:19Speaker 1: show will definitely be able to do that.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Fair enough, let me show you.
- 14:24Speaker 1: All right, So we're going to do that. The Goalies
- 14:27Speaker 1: of the Week January thirteenth, of the nineteenth Minimum three Games.
- 14:29Speaker 1: I gotta get Joshua Bursting credit because he does come
- 14:32Speaker 1: up some pretty good ideas. The credit to do with
- 14:35Speaker 1: Joshua Bursting, But the ones that he sent me the
- 14:38Speaker 1: big fan of my show here with you as well
- 14:40Speaker 1: as yours as well, But the ones that he sent
- 14:43Speaker 1: to me were Logan Thompson of Washington. I love the
- 14:46Speaker 1: goals against average because it reminds me of your phone
- 14:48Speaker 1: number over there. Zero point three to three is you
- 14:52Speaker 1: know what the three to three means? By now, Spencer
- 14:54Speaker 1: Knight ever heard of them? I have zero point four
- 14:56Speaker 1: to one, pretty good, Jake Aurant Dallas one point three six,
- 15:01Speaker 1: and then you have Darshy Campery Laking one point seven
- 15:04Speaker 1: to one. Not a bad group of goaltenders. Some thoughts
- 15:08Speaker 1: about that lift.
- 15:09Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I was going to say none
- 15:11Speaker 2: are Canadian, but that's not true, Logan Thompson is. And
- 15:14Speaker 2: you would say, why do you have to point that out? Well,
- 15:16Speaker 2: we have a problem in Canada producing goaltenders. We're gonna
- 15:19Speaker 2: find out in the Four Nations face off exactly how
- 15:21Speaker 2: big of a problem that is. What do I think
- 15:23Speaker 2: about that? Logan Thompson is the number one Star of
- 15:25Speaker 2: the Week in the NHL, not to mention the best goalie.
- 15:28Speaker 2: And what they're saying is, I don't know what the
- 15:30Speaker 2: exact numbers are. If Joshua Burstein's watching, he might know.
- 15:34Speaker 2: I think he's related to Joshua Door. But I think
- 15:37Speaker 2: Logan Thompson's gonna like eleven and one since being snubbed
- 15:41Speaker 2: for Canada Team Canada for the Four Nations face off,
- 15:44Speaker 2: and I find that really interesting. I don't know how
- 15:46Speaker 2: you are on snub Scott, if you're snubbed from a
- 15:49Speaker 2: Pro Bowl or things like this, does it motivate you more?
- 15:54Speaker 2: Sad to think that that might be a factor, But
- 15:57Speaker 2: that's what I think. And then Attingers American and Spencer
- 16:00Speaker 2: Knight's obviously American from Dary and Connecticut. So this is
- 16:03Speaker 2: the future of the NHL with these goalies that won
- 16:06Speaker 2: this award this week.
- 16:07Speaker 1: I'll give you a brief observation. When I think of snubs,
- 16:10Speaker 1: they buy the initially, but when players ultimately get hurt
- 16:12Speaker 1: and they can't show up, they ultimately become there. It
- 16:15Speaker 1: just doesn't look good initially, is what it does. But
- 16:18Speaker 1: ultimately the ones that were snub ultimately end up there.
- 16:22Speaker 1: That's really where I'm going to go with the whole thing.
- 16:24Speaker 1: So it's an ego thing at the beginning, but subsequently
- 16:27Speaker 1: it doesn't matter at the end, and I'll leave it
- 16:29Speaker 1: at We have a lot of other great topics, one
- 16:31Speaker 1: of which you wrote your story that I want to
- 16:33Speaker 1: get more information about, and that's the Philadelphia's plan to
- 16:37Speaker 1: build a new arena. And Jennifer Matthews Lewis bring her
- 16:40Speaker 1: up their Candy. She's actually on Chicks and Salsa and
- 16:44Speaker 1: she happens to be on Three Chicks at a five
- 16:47Speaker 1: and that's Candy's co host on a couple of shows.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Jennifer Matthews Lewis says, I like the fight in Icky.
- 16:52Speaker 1: You know what, Jennifer, I love this sweet art, great stuff.
- 16:55Speaker 1: Women like fights? How many women really gravitate the fights? Man?
- 16:59Speaker 1: Gotta put you know comm up again? Seriously, I want
- 17:02Speaker 1: the whole world to know in Canada my country, second
- 17:06Speaker 1: country by the way, but lived there in Detroit, we're
- 17:09Speaker 1: brothers connected by a bridge and a tunnel. That stuff. Right.
- 17:13Speaker 1: Then she knows I'm crazy. Well, then again, what do
- 17:16Speaker 1: you need to learn anyway? I don't really care oh
- 17:19Speaker 1: you Florida Panthers. No nothing, no bother intended. But the
- 17:23Speaker 1: reality is I know where I was born, and I
- 17:25Speaker 1: knew about Gordi Howersby promoted dat ahead, so snuff, they
- 17:28Speaker 1: don't bother me. So let's go to the topic at hand.
- 17:31Speaker 1: In the Philadelphia's new arena, we all know about the spectrum.
- 17:35Speaker 1: I actually saw a basketball game there, and I believe
- 17:38Speaker 1: they have the Wells Fargo Arena. Is that correct or Center?
- 17:42Speaker 1: I don't know which one it is, but well Fargo
- 17:44Speaker 1: connected to it. Yeah. So they initially talked about building
- 17:48Speaker 1: in one point three billion dollar stadium downtown and now
- 17:52Speaker 1: they're actually backtracking and looking to put it back in
- 17:55Speaker 1: South Philly. You wrote about it, now you get to
- 17:57Speaker 1: talk about it. After you do that, we go to
- 17:59Speaker 1: a station.
- 18:01Speaker 2: Simply you've kind of covered it all that. There was
- 18:04Speaker 2: plans to build it right downtown where all the facilities
- 18:07Speaker 2: are Lincoln Financial Field, the ballpark's right there. There was
- 18:11Speaker 2: a plan to put this new hockey arena right there
- 18:13Speaker 2: where Wells Fargo Center stands, and for whatever reason, it
- 18:17Speaker 2: was scrapped. Comcast is the landlord. It's the owners of
- 18:23Speaker 2: the seventy six ers in the New Jersey Devils that
- 18:26Speaker 2: are building this thing. I think it's maybe ironic or
- 18:30Speaker 2: whatever you want to say that the Flyers owners are
- 18:33Speaker 2: not involved in this, and I believe they'll just be
- 18:35Speaker 2: the tenants. I believe the Flyers are moving with the
- 18:38Speaker 2: seventy six Ers into this new arena. It's not going
- 18:40Speaker 2: to be built for till twenty thirty one. This it's
- 18:44Speaker 2: going to be a long time before they're actually playing
- 18:45Speaker 2: in it, and there's a desire to lure a WNBA
- 18:49Speaker 2: franchise for Philadelphia as well. I kind of wonder if
- 18:51Speaker 2: the league will still be I'm sure it'll still be
- 18:54Speaker 2: going by then. It's been going for a long time.
- 18:56Speaker 2: But that is this. You read it all. It's going
- 18:58Speaker 2: to go in South fully open twenty thirty one. Seventy
- 19:01Speaker 2: six Ers and New Jersey Devil's owners are the main
- 19:05Speaker 2: owners of it, all right.
- 19:06Speaker 1: So my question to you is this, Philadelphia doesn't mind
- 19:09Speaker 1: keeping their arenas. They kept the Spectrum up a while
- 19:11Speaker 1: while they had a neighboring arena there. I've been to
- 19:13Speaker 1: that sports complex too, Rod when I actually covered games
- 19:17Speaker 1: over at the Veteran at Veterans Stadium, so I happened
- 19:20Speaker 1: to go out there and see old JFK Stadium and
- 19:23Speaker 1: I was in the spectrum. What do you think in
- 19:26Speaker 1: your mind? And again I'm not thinking that you're the
- 19:29Speaker 1: actual source on it, that they would do with that
- 19:32Speaker 1: building because it's relatively new. You can't tear it down,
- 19:34Speaker 1: that play down, don't you think it'd be Why so
- 19:36Speaker 1: at least probably put the w NBA team in there,
- 19:41Speaker 1: or what would they do or Triple A team. I
- 19:43Speaker 1: don't know. I'm locked on this one.
- 19:45Speaker 2: No, no, no, Well let's just remember number one is
- 19:47Speaker 2: not opening until twenty thirty one, so I guess that
- 19:50Speaker 2: is only six years away, but that's still quite a
- 19:53Speaker 2: long ways away Number two. Nowhere in the article did
- 19:56Speaker 2: it say that the Flyers were moving. I would suspect
- 20:00Speaker 2: that they would, but they might not. Like you say,
- 20:02Speaker 2: the Spectrum stayed up for a very long time and
- 20:04Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Phantoms American Hockey League team played there for years.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Right now, wells Fargo Centers home the seventy six ers,
- 20:11Speaker 2: the Flyers, and the is it the Wings? The Philadelphia Wings,
- 20:15Speaker 2: I believe, the National Lacrosse League. So it's not like
- 20:17Speaker 2: that arena's not busy. Okay, As we sit here today,
- 20:21Speaker 2: it would sound to me like the seventy six ers
- 20:24Speaker 2: are moving and they're trying to attract the WNBA team
- 20:27Speaker 2: those would be the tenants. Doesn't sound like initially that
- 20:30Speaker 2: I saw that the Flyers are moving.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Okay, well that's good. That's why I asked you for clarification.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Say you have the Fires, the lacrosse. There's no reason
- 20:38Speaker 1: why get tear of building down after thirty years, You
- 20:40Speaker 1: just don't. I understood the reasons for the spectrum that
- 20:43Speaker 1: would have been there for a while, and it didn't
- 20:45Speaker 1: lack the amenis. I understood that one and we all
- 20:47Speaker 1: know Kate from it and made that place famous, especially
- 20:50Speaker 1: when the Russians went there and got their tails kicked
- 20:52Speaker 1: by the Flyers. And that's for another day and another topic.
- 20:55Speaker 1: But there'serent memory that a lot of Philadelphia fans with,
- 20:58Speaker 1: certainly Church and if you were in America and on
- 21:00Speaker 1: that time when the Russians are beating the daylights out
- 21:04Speaker 1: of every team in the NHL, the Fires were the
- 21:06Speaker 1: team that we all depended upon to trying to save
- 21:09Speaker 1: face with what the Russians were doing to us. But
- 21:12Speaker 1: that's so at least that arena is not going to
- 21:14Speaker 1: go to waste. So just a little update what we
- 21:17Speaker 1: have going on here. We do have one hundred eyes
- 21:20Speaker 1: looking at us at the moment. Rod. This shows that
- 21:22Speaker 1: we're working up building a big show. So for all
- 21:25Speaker 1: you folks that are tuning in for the first time,
- 21:27Speaker 1: please let everybody know that Rod and I do this
- 21:29Speaker 1: every Thursday night at eight o'clock Eastern time. We're looking
- 21:33Speaker 1: to build a big buzz on here with the Hockey Show,
- 21:37Speaker 1: and we certainly have a lot of background and of
- 21:38Speaker 1: course our ability to work together on projects such as
- 21:42Speaker 1: the Rod Peterson Show. At some point, I'm looking to
- 21:44Speaker 1: get to the Cats and Bolts podcasts. I believe in
- 21:47Speaker 1: bulk raton after I get back from the super Bowl
- 21:50Speaker 1: or somewhere along those lines. So we're really working. Rod
- 21:53Speaker 1: and I have a lot of things that we're working
- 21:55Speaker 1: on over the course of time. I've met this guy
- 21:58Speaker 1: and he's a super class fact. He's iconic in Canada
- 22:02Speaker 1: and I feel very fortunate to have this guy as
- 22:04Speaker 1: my partner here. To me, this guy and I are
- 22:09Speaker 1: like boxers and brothers. Okay, but I think a one
- 22:12Speaker 1: analogy I mentioned on your show earlier is you know
- 22:15Speaker 1: what didn't I say that you were. Let's see pizzazz
- 22:19Speaker 1: right and pretty equals TV and I'm grinding grid equals radio.
- 22:24Speaker 1: That's the difference. But not only have these cameras for.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Two kind, but it's a formidable duo for sure. So yeah,
- 22:33Speaker 2: we do. We do a good, good programming together.
- 22:37Speaker 1: So well you're telling me is that one building doesn't
- 22:40Speaker 1: figure to get torn down. This is enough tenants that
- 22:44Speaker 1: they can have to spread it up. And I know
- 22:46Speaker 1: one thing ron having been to that, but facility, there's
- 22:49Speaker 1: enough parking to last. It can support a lot of
- 22:51Speaker 1: different structures. Bear in mind, JFK. I believe correct me
- 22:55Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. I think sat over one hundred thousand
- 22:58Speaker 1: and used to being the home of the Army Navy game.
- 23:00Speaker 1: And I remember when I was there they had an
- 23:03Speaker 1: actual bubble out there for the Philadelphia Eagles practice. Facility
- 23:07Speaker 1: just wants to show you how far to go back
- 23:09Speaker 1: with it. All right, With that said, we're gonna go
- 23:11Speaker 1: all over to a station break and then Rod is
- 23:13Speaker 1: gonna talk about it trip to Chicago. Can't wait to
- 23:16Speaker 1: hear this one. We'll be back the.

- 25:24Speaker 1: handle it on. Oh but we don't mind company.
- 25:25Speaker 2: Right Rod, uh No, absolutely not.
- 25:29Speaker 1: Not in this setting. All right, Rod, guess what you
- 25:33Speaker 1: want to have? Played coach Chicago Illinois and he had a
- 25:35Speaker 1: great time. But let me go ahead and mention a
- 25:37Speaker 1: few things that I was when I was covering the Lions,
- 25:39Speaker 1: and I've gone to Windy City many times. Okay, and
- 25:42Speaker 1: I'll see what it comes to mind to view, all
- 25:44Speaker 1: right for me? Wrigley Field, I had a chance to
- 25:47Speaker 1: meet Harry Carey cover the game there. Soldier Field covered
- 25:51Speaker 1: the Lions and the Bears a lot Comisky Park. I
- 25:54Speaker 1: had to cover the White Sons and had an opportunity
- 25:56Speaker 1: to do a story on the organist, Nancy Fowls. If
- 25:59Speaker 1: that is enough. Did you ever go to Gibson Steakhouse there?
- 26:03Speaker 2: No, No, I didn't do that, but we had several
- 26:05Speaker 2: deep dish pizza recommendations that we went to four different
- 26:08Speaker 2: pizza restaurants.
- 26:10Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to get to Gibson Steakhouse when we
- 26:14Speaker 1: get back to their brother.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Oh, trust me, we will. But it was minus six
- 26:17Speaker 2: degrees celsius or sorry, minus six fahrenheit minus twenty eight
- 26:22Speaker 2: celsius with the wind chills, so we weren't really in
- 26:25Speaker 2: the mood for bopping around town. But it's interesting you
- 26:27Speaker 2: talk about the fifty sorry, the thirty year old Wells
- 26:30Speaker 2: Fargo Center in Philadelphia, the United Center in Chicago. You
- 26:35Speaker 2: could eat off the floors, dude, and last year marked
- 26:37Speaker 2: their thirtieth year for the United Center in Chicago, and
- 26:42Speaker 2: we had the wonderful opportunity to spend it with the
- 26:44Speaker 2: Blackhawks alumni and they're sweet, Chris Chellios, Grant Mulvey, Kyle Calder.
- 26:49Speaker 2: We had a great fun. It's the last place team
- 26:52Speaker 2: in the NHL.
- 26:52Speaker 1: Scott.
- 26:53Speaker 2: That place was rocket back to the capacity for the
- 26:57Speaker 2: Chicago Blackhawks. So two Hawks games, four pizza restaurants went
- 27:02Speaker 2: to Wrigley Field. What more did you ask other the
- 27:05Speaker 2: Gibson Steakhouse. Serena said, we got to go back in
- 27:07Speaker 2: the spring of summer and watch some baseball and we'll
- 27:10Speaker 2: hit the steakhouse.
- 27:11Speaker 1: Then, well, there's only one problem that you missed, and
- 27:13Speaker 1: it's too late now. I remember going to Chicago Stadium
- 27:16Speaker 1: watching Michael Jordan's sorry, Serena, obvious sweet do, but he
- 27:21Speaker 1: ain't going to Chicago Stadium. You can visualize it over
- 27:24Speaker 1: to Chicago's Sports Hall of Fame because it was next door.
- 27:27Speaker 1: And I've phid to both places and I can tell
- 27:29Speaker 1: you the Chicago Stadium was unbelieva, but yeah, different steakhouse
- 27:32Speaker 1: is great. The second city. Chicago's one of my favorite
- 27:35Speaker 1: cities of all time. It really is, and I don't
- 27:37Speaker 1: mind mentioning a little personal stuff. There was a one
- 27:39Speaker 1: time when I actually met a nice Jewish lady from
- 27:42Speaker 1: Saint Louis. So we went out on a couple dates
- 27:45Speaker 1: when I was out there. You know, Detroit's in the
- 27:46Speaker 1: part of Chicago. Four hours. We got along. We were
- 27:48Speaker 1: front for a while, but then you know, as time
- 27:50Speaker 1: goes on, I'm in Detroit, she's in Saint Louiso lost
- 27:52Speaker 1: but she was actually there in the entertainment business, and
- 27:55Speaker 1: we had a good time and she showed me the era.
- 27:57Speaker 1: It was a real fun time with Chicago, just on Aelieva,
- 28:00Speaker 1: know for their Irish bars and all that stuff. And
- 28:02Speaker 1: Michigan Avenue. Well, what can I say. I love it
- 28:05Speaker 1: when you had that shirt of mine when you promoed
- 28:08Speaker 1: the show with Michigan like Michigan. That was really good
- 28:11Speaker 1: that you had as a preview there. You ever heard
- 28:12Speaker 1: of Trevor Thompson, by the way.
- 28:15Speaker 2: I might have refreshed my memory.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Well, he's a good friend of mine and he's actually
- 28:19Speaker 1: a commentator for the Detroit Red Wings. Him and I
- 28:22Speaker 1: really close. I showed him that photo of you and
- 28:24Speaker 1: I and me wearing the Red Wings shirt on the promo,
- 28:28Speaker 1: and he's unbelieving he's one of the closest friends I
- 28:31Speaker 1: talk about a brother, Trevor Thompson. They don't make him
- 28:33Speaker 1: any better than that, that's for sure. But I love you, Trevor,
- 28:37Speaker 1: if you're watching it, and otherwise, I'll get to the
- 28:39Speaker 1: show and you can listen to it later. But yeah, no,
- 28:41Speaker 1: Chicago's is great. I didn't go to the best city
- 28:43Speaker 1: in the country. It really is. Tell you one thing, though,
- 28:46Speaker 1: you ever cover a bear's game over a soldier field
- 28:49Speaker 1: that before they fixed it up, I had to wear
- 28:52Speaker 1: three pairs of socks along with hockey boots and I
- 28:56Speaker 1: was still freezing by Lake Michigan. I'm telling you don't
- 28:59Speaker 1: know what it's like to reason tell you about Lake
- 29:01Speaker 1: Michigan A dead winner, right rob Christmas time that's when
- 29:04Speaker 1: you have to deal with a free I don't know
- 29:06Speaker 1: how bad it was when you were, but during Christmas
- 29:08Speaker 1: time is no picnic. But boy, the trees and all that.
- 29:11Speaker 2: There's a reason that I live in Florida, I think
- 29:13Speaker 2: is the reason you do too. We're not interested in
- 29:15Speaker 2: being in the cold, so why won't be going back
- 29:18Speaker 2: to Chicago for a football game and sitting outside any
- 29:21Speaker 2: time soon put it that way.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Oh maybe you won't, but I'll tell you one thing.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Those are fils a historical plays and had a lot
- 29:28Speaker 1: of memories. See Barry Sanders there and the Bears. I
- 29:31Speaker 1: mean he said historic. All right, you had a friend
- 29:34Speaker 1: that recently passed away. I'm going to give you the
- 29:35Speaker 1: floor on this one, Rod. His name was Danny McCourt
- 29:39Speaker 1: nineteen fifty four to twenty twenty five. I believe in
- 29:41Speaker 1: my matta it was at seventy years of age, and
- 29:45Speaker 1: so you know, I believe he officiated in sixteen hundred games,
- 29:48Speaker 1: two decades in the scouting and development with the league
- 29:52Speaker 1: sufficiating department. Okay, Rod, the floor is yours. I want
- 29:55Speaker 1: you to go out there and talk about Danny McCort
- 29:59Speaker 1: and we will.
- 30:01Speaker 2: Yeah. If people don't remember Danny McCourt, you might remember
- 30:04Speaker 2: his brother, Dale McCord, who played in the NHL all
- 30:07Speaker 2: the same time that Danny was officiating in the National
- 30:10Speaker 2: Hockey League. And you got it right, Scott, sixteen hundred
- 30:12Speaker 2: plus games as a lignsman. I got to know him
- 30:15Speaker 2: at the Centennial Cup in twenty twenty one. It's the
- 30:18Speaker 2: Canadian National Junior Hockey Championship, Junior A Hockey Championship, and
- 30:23Speaker 2: it was awesome. In the host hotel, we just sat
- 30:25Speaker 2: in the lobby. And I'm sure you've had these types
- 30:27Speaker 2: of events things have you covered? All the hockey people
- 30:30Speaker 2: just came and sat in the lobby of the hotels
- 30:31Speaker 2: that could come and go, have a coffee and tell
- 30:33Speaker 2: hockey stories. And that's what Danny mccorty did. He was
- 30:36Speaker 2: the head of officiating for the Ontario Junior Hockey League
- 30:39Speaker 2: when I met him and we sat and talked hockey
- 30:42Speaker 2: all day long. This is a guy that probably should
- 30:46Speaker 2: be in the Hockey Hall of Fame because of what
- 30:48Speaker 2: he did. I think they put officials in there. I
- 30:50Speaker 2: know they do have an Officials Hall of Fame. He
- 30:52Speaker 2: just loved the game, Scott. You don't get out of
- 30:54Speaker 2: the NHL after sixteen hundred games and then go work
- 30:57Speaker 2: junior if you didn't love it, you know what I mean?
- 31:00Speaker 2: Just just just a great hockey guy, real nice guy,
- 31:04Speaker 2: has all the time to day for anybody who wants
- 31:05Speaker 2: to talk big hole in the hockey world. And condolence
- 31:10Speaker 2: is to the McCourt family.
- 31:11Speaker 1: How's that all right? Candy go out there, but see
- 31:13Speaker 1: lightning three hundred miles. Daln mcourt I remember, sure, he
- 31:16Speaker 1: was an excellent player for the Detroit Red Wings. I
- 31:18Speaker 1: remember when he was traded to the La Kings and
- 31:20Speaker 1: rejected the trade and they had had additional compensation. It
- 31:24Speaker 1: was the same thing that when he had to Marcel
- 31:26Speaker 1: the own trade that I think Terry Harper didn't want
- 31:29Speaker 1: to go, but was actually forced to go. But there
- 31:31Speaker 1: was resistance there and I believe Dan Maloney was also
- 31:34Speaker 1: included that trade. So there was a history of trades
- 31:36Speaker 1: between the Red Wings in the La Kings back in
- 31:38Speaker 1: the seventies where nobody wanted to go from Motown to
- 31:41Speaker 1: la But as a result, but Dale McCourt was a
- 31:43Speaker 1: heck of a player. I really enjoyed watching him. He
- 31:46Speaker 1: knew how to put the biscuit in the basket. Is
- 31:48Speaker 1: a lot of hockey people would go out there and
- 31:50Speaker 1: say so, yeah, rest and teams. I didn't know him,
- 31:53Speaker 1: but then again, you know everybody in the planet to
- 31:55Speaker 1: begin with when it comes to the hockey world. No,
- 31:57Speaker 1: you do. And that's that's impressive because that's just sport
- 32:00Speaker 1: that obviously you've been around a long time I've been
- 32:02Speaker 1: around a lot of different sports. Hockey is certainly something.
- 32:04Speaker 1: Being a Canadian as you are have had more way
- 32:07Speaker 1: more exposure. Nevertheless, it's a great sport. It has a
- 32:10Speaker 1: great history, goes back to the early nineteen hundreds and
- 32:13Speaker 1: Alway's gonna have a question a validity about the hockey
- 32:16Speaker 1: history going on at this particular point. Let's ask Daniel
- 32:20Speaker 1: Court see you Lightning, You'll tell you it's been a
- 32:21Speaker 1: pleasure of having you on, Jennifer Matthew Lewis my goodness,

- 34:42Speaker 2: they're going, the grade ay, Alex Loveshkin's chase of Wayne
- 34:46Speaker 2: Gretzky's records. He's twenty one goals away. We examined that
