- 0:58Speaker 1: Peterson Show.
- 1:00Speaker 3: Some acquaintances for sure, friends will see it, definitely acquaintances.
- 1:04Speaker 1: And well the Red Waquin the red.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Wings are in Canada tonight on might dad. I know
- 1:10Speaker 3: we're going to get to that, but I can't wait
- 1:12Speaker 3: to talk some red Wings orders here tonight.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Good to see you guys, good dad. All right, we'll
- 1:16Speaker 1: weann to start it off with the red Wings topic.
- 1:18Speaker 1: And I have a I have a title one for
- 1:22Speaker 1: the ages, A shiny new red Wing. Where did he
- 1:25Speaker 1: come up with that one? I'll tell you where I
- 1:27Speaker 1: came up with it for Northern Michigan University of Wildcat Dominic.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Shine signed a two year deal with the Detroit Red Wings.
- 1:36Speaker 1: The last nine seasons he has played with the Grand
- 1:40Speaker 1: Rapids Griffins. He made his debut after playing four hundred
- 1:43Speaker 1: and sixty two games in the AHL. And he hails
- 1:46Speaker 1: from Livingston County, Michigan, out in the Hall Brighton area. George,
- 1:51Speaker 1: that you're there? Are they hailing to mister Hale?
- 1:57Speaker 2: James all here?
- 1:58Speaker 1: Hey? Listen?
- 1:59Speaker 2: I saw his date the other night, okay, in the
- 2:02Speaker 2: Los Angeles Hings Red Wigs game, and boy, oh boy,
- 2:05Speaker 2: this guy. The thing I like most about him, he's
- 2:08Speaker 2: not afraid. He's not afraid. He'll muck it up in
- 2:10Speaker 2: the corner. He'll muck it up whever he has to.
- 2:13Speaker 2: He gives Detroit that little extra dimension. My only question
- 2:17Speaker 2: is why is it taking so long? Why is it
- 2:19Speaker 2: taking all these years? The man is thirty one years old,
- 2:22Speaker 2: but hey, who cares. Stevie Eisman saw something in him.
- 2:26Speaker 2: The general manager and the coach over and Grand Rapids
- 2:29Speaker 2: saw something in him, and they really liked it. And
- 2:32Speaker 2: there was a real good video too. Before the game started.
- 2:35Speaker 2: He was there with his family, of course, and as
- 2:37Speaker 2: the players come in off of the clubhouse area, as
- 2:40Speaker 2: you know in these new arenas like in Detroit, there's
- 2:43Speaker 2: an area where the fans can wave to you and
- 2:46Speaker 2: give him a high five or a pump. And he
- 2:48Speaker 2: was there with his little kids and his wife, and
- 2:50Speaker 2: it was so nice. They're wishing him good luck before
- 2:53Speaker 2: the game started. Let's get back to Dominic Scheine five eleven. Hey,
- 2:58Speaker 2: I don't he doesn't sound too too big and bulky,
- 3:02Speaker 2: but boil boy, he pushed his weight around against the Kings.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I like what I see so far.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Guys.
- 3:08Speaker 1: One word for that called perseverance. And you know what,
- 3:11Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Peterson had the persevere with me every time
- 3:14Speaker 1: I go on to Ron Peterson show. Let alone take
- 3:17Speaker 1: what he gets on Thursday night. But with all who
- 3:19Speaker 1: respot rod, what are your thoughts about dominic shines road
- 3:23Speaker 1: to the National Hockey League.
- 3:25Speaker 3: I think it's awesome. I'm sure he probably thought he
- 3:28Speaker 3: was never going to get to the NHL. I think
- 3:30Speaker 3: we all know a lot of career minor league guys
- 3:32Speaker 3: that stay in the minors because they're great minor league
- 3:35Speaker 3: guys probably you know that are capable of playing in
- 3:37Speaker 3: the National Hockey League, but for whatever reason, they don't
- 3:40Speaker 3: so at the age of thirty one to make his
- 3:42Speaker 3: NHL debut. I think the Wings, guys, they are your team.
- 3:46Speaker 3: You can tell that they're kind of in desperation mode
- 3:49Speaker 3: already right there, willing to try a lot of new things.
- 3:52Speaker 3: We're going to talk about Todd McClellan here, the Todd Father.
- 3:57Speaker 3: You know, Stevie WI said a lot of players were
- 3:59Speaker 3: not performing up to their own individual capabilities. You know, individually,
- 4:03Speaker 3: Nora is the team. And listen, guys, you can't argue
- 4:06Speaker 3: with what this team has done since the coaching change.
- 4:09Speaker 3: I saw Cam Talbot was eight and one in the
- 4:12Speaker 3: month of January. They're cracking the whatep. And maybe under
- 4:17Speaker 3: Derek Lalan guys who got complacent and weren't worried to
- 4:20Speaker 3: lose their jobs. But you know what, under Todd they
- 4:24Speaker 3: are so I like it.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Excellent points are out all the way around. All right.
- 4:29Speaker 1: What we're gonna do right now is we're going to
- 4:31Speaker 1: go to a mega trade that occurred earlier in the week,
- 4:34Speaker 1: and that mega trade involved a three way deal involving Carolina,
- 4:38Speaker 1: Colorado and Chicago. The Ads acquired forwards Martin, Nie Cox
- 4:42Speaker 1: and Jack Brewery, along with the second round selection of
- 4:45Speaker 1: twenty twenty five rapt and a fourth round pick in
- 4:48Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six NHL Draft from the Carolina Hurricanes.
- 4:51Speaker 1: In exchange, Colorado traded forward Miko Retanen to the Blackhawks
- 4:58Speaker 1: and Ford Nils John Trump Shohn Torp complete the deal.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I hope I'm not doing too bad on that. Carolina
- 5:06Speaker 1: inquired Ron Toon and Taylor Hall from Chicago in his
- 5:10Speaker 1: changed for Colorado, sending John Torp to the Hurricanes. Chicago
- 5:15Speaker 1: also received its own twenty twenty five pick, third and
- 5:18Speaker 1: the third in the deal, and that was previously acquired
- 5:24Speaker 1: by Carolina. Now, if you can't keep up with me,
- 5:26Speaker 1: you can always re listen to the show, and I'm
- 5:28Speaker 1: sure after the second or third interpretation they'll get it right.
- 5:31Speaker 1: But you know what, Rod, I'm gonna let you try
- 5:33Speaker 1: to make some sense out of this train.
- 5:35Speaker 3: You're highly entertaining.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Scott.
- 5:36Speaker 3: I'll tell you that it's Miko Ranton in and out
- 5:41Speaker 3: of that. All the main things here is Miko Ranton
- 5:43Speaker 3: ins in Colorado. Sorry, went from Colorado to Carolina as
- 5:47Speaker 3: you're looking at it. Taylor Hall went from Chicago to Carolina.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Martin Nakeis went to Colorado and Chicago really got nothing
- 5:55Speaker 3: but a third round pick. So I had Matthew Barnaby
- 5:58Speaker 3: on my show today. You guys know that name really well.
- 6:00Speaker 3: We like it's been almost a week since the trade.
- 6:02Speaker 3: It went down Friday night, and I'll be honest with you,
- 6:04Speaker 3: when I saw the names, I'm like, this is fake news,
- 6:07Speaker 3: this is crap, this is there's no way. I just
- 6:11Speaker 3: watched Carolina play in Chicago. Martin Nakas is their leading
- 6:15Speaker 3: scorer in Carolina. Nope, he went and met Corant and
- 6:19Speaker 3: it was on the top line with Nathan McKinnon. But gentlemen,
- 6:23Speaker 3: it's all about money, and if you care, Rantinan will
- 6:27Speaker 3: not budge on the figure he wants fourteen million. The
- 6:30Speaker 3: Avalanche can't give it to him. They got a lot
- 6:32Speaker 3: of stars on that team. Cal mccarr's contract is coming due.
- 6:36Speaker 3: They just couldn't afford me Corant and so they moved him.
- 6:38Speaker 3: So we're in an era now where it's not about
- 6:41Speaker 3: hockey trades. It's about money, and this h about money,
- 6:47Speaker 3: And to be honest, I'd be interested in both of
- 6:48Speaker 3: your take trophies. Stanley cups versus cash? What would you
- 6:55Speaker 3: rather have? Right, players want the money more than the trophies.
- 7:00Speaker 3: It seems to be Germany.
- 7:01Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunately, I know this is not the norm. Okay,
- 7:06Speaker 2: this You don't see these kind of big trades like
- 7:08Speaker 2: that during the season very often, Rod and Scott and
- 7:12Speaker 2: I think when the grades are finally settled, obviously it
- 7:16Speaker 2: is gonna have you know, it is going to very
- 7:18Speaker 2: much help the Carolina Hurricanes. But again, like you said,
- 7:21Speaker 2: I mean, he wants he's a sist leading scorer Rantidin
- 7:25Speaker 2: is in the NHL this season for sixty five points.
- 7:28Speaker 2: I mean, he is a very very great player, twenty
- 7:32Speaker 2: eight years old. And but the but like you said,
- 7:36Speaker 2: the money, the contract, where's the money, you know, And
- 7:39Speaker 2: that's gonna be a big deciding factor. And you nailed
- 7:41Speaker 2: it when you said Colorado obviously it feels they can't
- 7:45Speaker 2: they can't afford them, so they wanted to get something,
- 7:47Speaker 2: some value out of them. So I mean, but but again,
- 7:51Speaker 2: it's gonna be it's going to be very interesting to
- 7:53Speaker 2: see because you know, Carolina, obviously, Colorado to a certain extent,
- 7:57Speaker 2: Chicago's not really going anywhere. But the thing is is
- 8:00Speaker 2: that I like it because it kind of helps every team.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Maybe maybe not the Blackhawks too much, but it's it's
- 8:09Speaker 2: good because you know, players sometimes have to move around.
- 8:12Speaker 2: We all know that they move from team to team.
- 8:14Speaker 2: We saw that a team called Detroit couldn't sign a
- 8:18Speaker 2: Marion Holser. I remember what does he do? He went
- 8:21Speaker 2: to Chicago and won a couple of Stanley Cups with them.
- 8:23Speaker 2: That one hurt. But all I'm saying is that, yeah,
- 8:26Speaker 2: we see trades more towards the deadline, but not in
- 8:29Speaker 2: the middle of the season.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Here.
- 8:30Speaker 2: It's a very interesting deal though.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Well George Jordy said it, Okay, you're trying to get
- 8:35Speaker 1: value for the guy before you end up getting nothing
- 8:37Speaker 1: if he design believer he can't sign. Let's thanks for reality.
- 8:40Speaker 1: The salary camp with the NHL is a lot more
- 8:43Speaker 1: than there is a lot of the other major sports,
- 8:45Speaker 1: so you can't retain as much. Rob You ought to
- 8:48Speaker 1: know it. Because the Florida Panthers won their Stanley Cup,
- 8:51Speaker 1: they couldn't keep everybody, But in their case, they're still
- 8:54Speaker 1: keeping a lot of their core guys and a couple
- 8:56Speaker 1: get away. So bit you just have to hope that
- 8:58Speaker 1: your part system have a talent the supplement, and then
- 9:01Speaker 1: you pick up marginal free agents to fill in the gaps.
- 9:05Speaker 1: But in this particular trade, this is really definitely about
- 9:08Speaker 1: a money situation. But Colorado I believe got there a
- 9:11Speaker 1: couple few years ago, right Rod.
- 9:13Speaker 3: They did, They absolutely did, And I guess Miko Ranton
- 9:16Speaker 3: is looking at this going I've already won. And the
- 9:19Speaker 3: attitude of the players is get as much money as
- 9:22Speaker 3: you can before they kick you out, and that's what
- 9:26Speaker 3: Miko Ranton's trying to do. But you bring up the Panthers,
- 9:29Speaker 3: that's well, I love being on with you guys that
- 9:30Speaker 3: I was disappointed George wasn't with us last week because
- 9:33Speaker 3: I love George insight. The Panthers had nine new players
- 9:37Speaker 3: this year from last that's half the team. And you know,
- 9:41Speaker 3: you'd brought up George in the eighties or sort of
- 9:43Speaker 3: the nineties with the Wings, they'd bring back seventeen eighteen
- 9:46Speaker 3: guys from teams who won the Stanley Cup. It's so
- 9:49Speaker 3: different now, so the teams that are able to stay
- 9:52Speaker 3: on top, it's really impressive.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Well, it didn't hurt that they had Mike Gillis signing
- 9:57Speaker 1: the checks either, And back then it wasn't as much
- 10:00Speaker 1: of a salary camp as there. Now, before I go
- 10:03Speaker 1: back to y'all, we've got a couple new faces in
- 10:05Speaker 1: the chatroom. Need to get to them. They call me
- 10:07Speaker 1: mister you. He's actually on the inside the pict in
- 10:09Speaker 1: for a while, mister you. There's always a spot available
- 10:12Speaker 1: for you on Inside the pict and my friend, but
- 10:15Speaker 1: thanks a lot for coming onto Sports of Schage tonight.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Ron nine and George are working very diligently to try
- 10:21Speaker 1: to build this hockey show and I feel very confident
- 10:24Speaker 1: that we're going to continue to do it. So mister you,
- 10:27Speaker 1: it's a pleasure to go out there and see you again.
- 10:30Speaker 1: And I really mean necessarily, but reach out to me,
- 10:32Speaker 1: my friend, if you ever want to come back on
- 10:34Speaker 1: Inside depict It. It's an open invitation. Thanks a lot
- 10:37Speaker 1: for joining us. And of course Pengling Rod knows him.
- 10:40Speaker 1: He was on this show too good. So showed so
- 10:43Speaker 1: far fourteen million for a playing playing a game. Well
- 10:46Speaker 1: it's not so bad money if you could earn it.
- 10:48Speaker 1: And of course see lightning, I am figured read number one.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Okay if you say so, all right, So what that said,
- 10:55Speaker 1: we're due to a station break in a moment. But
- 10:57Speaker 1: going back to this particular topic one more time, I'm
- 11:00Speaker 1: Mike Gillis. Like I said, when the Red Wings Wonders
- 11:03Speaker 1: stand with tout all of four of them in that
- 11:05Speaker 1: time frame, you had a lot of money to play with.
- 11:09Speaker 1: Now you know it's gonna be hard to find a
- 11:12Speaker 1: Red Wings era. Duplicated with the fact that the salary
- 11:17Speaker 1: cap and I always.
- 11:18Speaker 2: I always hit the feeling too that Commissioner Gary Bettman
- 11:22Speaker 2: during those years wasn't overly pleased with Detroit winning and
- 11:25Speaker 2: Detroit dominating. You know, Gary's been there for so many
- 11:29Speaker 2: years now decades at the NHL, and the fans in
- 11:33Speaker 2: Detroit never warmed up to him. Of course, fans are
- 11:36Speaker 2: like that. They don't like the commissioner of any sport.
- 11:39Speaker 2: Most people don't. They always find something wrong. But the
- 11:42Speaker 2: point is is that, yes, there was such a different
- 11:44Speaker 2: game back then where these owners could write all these
- 11:46Speaker 2: checks like we see the Los Angeles Dodgers doing in baseball.
- 11:50Speaker 1: George back off, now you got me, dude, long twelve
- 12:00Speaker 1: minute mark for I going to put it in mouth
- 12:03Speaker 1: really sentencely. I'm ledger back, George, so I can let
- 12:06Speaker 1: you have it. Rockeny's even the whip me Boy now
- 12:08Speaker 1: Church and that's you're welcome back, Rock Glanc're back in
- 12:11Speaker 1: more ways than one. Garry Betman should be darned well
- 12:14Speaker 1: faithful that the Detroit Redlands say the National Hockey League,
- 12:18Speaker 1: because nobody gave a darn about it to begin with.
- 12:21Speaker 1: They didn't the more national television appearance of this original
- 12:24Speaker 1: six franchisees on the feder Off, it was that hockey
- 12:28Speaker 1: was on the map. No disrespect of the Florida Panthers,
- 12:31Speaker 1: because you know what, the Florida Panthers will never get
- 12:34Speaker 1: my crisis and at least they want to cup. There's
- 12:36Speaker 1: a lot of other teams that haven after one, after
- 12:38Speaker 1: more years and thirty. But the reality of the situation is,
- 12:42Speaker 1: how the heck, I don't are you stealthing so you
- 12:45Speaker 1: can bring up the la doctors of the Hockey South serenally? Really,
- 12:50Speaker 1: that's you know what you're like trying to do. They're
- 12:52Speaker 1: trying to go out there and compare a mule to
- 12:54Speaker 1: our hearts when it comes to racing to Kentucky Derby.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Come on, George, I only would I know in Spanish
- 13:01Speaker 1: is one I got referred to a lot my data
- 13:03Speaker 1: to dumb or be Puerto rican El stupid though, Fango,
- 13:09Speaker 1: that's what you were when you met that. Now it's
- 13:13Speaker 1: time for a station break before rockets Mandy to do
- 13:15Speaker 1: it for me, Bail you are set them ahead, Rod's
- 13:21Speaker 1: happy though.

- 15:05Speaker 1: don't think my hearing is stupid. I don't know how
- 15:08Speaker 1: much money the La Kings. All thing I know about
- 15:10Speaker 1: the La Kings. If both YouTube guys covered their game
- 15:13Speaker 1: featuring both of them, you went ahead got the Red
- 15:15Speaker 1: Ones and he got the Kings on Wednesday night, I'm
- 15:18Speaker 1: leaving it alone with the La stuff. Fit the mad Okay,
- 15:22Speaker 1: onto another topic. According to Dailyfaceoff dot com, in an
- 15:26Speaker 1: era of ephassistic goal panting, Connor Hallibut stands alone.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Rod.
- 15:30Speaker 1: I'm sure you know a little bit more about this.
- 15:33Speaker 3: Well, he just hit three hundred wins, the fastest American
- 15:37Speaker 3: to do it in NHL history. We as Canadians, even
- 15:42Speaker 3: though I'm living in Florida, you guys are honorary Canadians.
- 15:45Speaker 3: You hear everything that goes on in Canada hockey wise.
- 15:48Speaker 3: We're upset that we don't have the next one in gold.
- 15:51Speaker 3: There isn't one. The next Kerry Price, the next Martin Brother,
- 15:54Speaker 3: or the next Mark Andre Fleury. We don't have one
- 15:56Speaker 3: in Canada. And that might be what Daily face off
- 15:59Speaker 3: as we're referring to Connor Hellibuck will starting goal for
- 16:02Speaker 3: the USA and the Four Nations face off. He is
- 16:04Speaker 3: your in terms of USA starting goalie for international tournaments
- 16:09Speaker 3: for a very long time, and he starts with the
- 16:11Speaker 3: Winnipeg Jets. As you know, that's what they're referring to.
- 16:13Speaker 3: Fastest American to three hundred wins, Connor Hallibuck. He was
- 16:16Speaker 3: honored at a home game recently for achieving that. He's
- 16:19Speaker 3: he's fun to watch. The question is he always folds
- 16:22Speaker 3: in the playoffs? Will this year be different?
- 16:25Speaker 1: And now I have to root for this guy after
- 16:27Speaker 1: I've invested a couple of shows on him. Oh my goodness,
- 16:31Speaker 1: was Gomer Pilots? Ah my god? Where the one liners come?
- 16:35Speaker 1: I only have a twelve hour drive from all Right.
- 16:38Speaker 1: About Connor and David, I'm not talking about Connor McDavid
- 16:44Speaker 1: or Connor McGregor, Okay, another day.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Connor hella buck number one in say percentage, he's tied
- 16:54Speaker 2: for that really nine seven, number one in goals against
- 16:58Speaker 2: two point zero zero and number one as far as
- 17:02Speaker 2: wins goes with thirty one. He has just dominated. And
- 17:05Speaker 2: he is a great, great goaltender, no question about it. Winnipeg,
- 17:09Speaker 2: thanks to Lucky Stars, they have him. But yeah, they're
- 17:13Speaker 2: gonna showcase him, of course, why not. I like him.
- 17:16Speaker 2: He's been consistent and above above most of the other
- 17:20Speaker 2: goalies you know that are playing right now. But I mean,
- 17:24Speaker 2: he's done it for a while, He's done it for
- 17:25Speaker 2: a long time. I'm a good supporter of his, and
- 17:27Speaker 2: I really think that Winnipeg has an outstanding netminder of course,
- 17:31Speaker 2: in Connor.
- 17:32Speaker 1: And I have to make one mention here on this show,
- 17:35Speaker 1: and in order to motivate Joshua Door from helping out
- 17:39Speaker 1: because Rod was so tiny enough to say I intimidate
- 17:42Speaker 1: him or Rod doesn't know the level for which I
- 17:44Speaker 1: intimidate him. Because every now and then I do clist
- 17:47Speaker 1: on your shows. I do give Joshua Door an opportunity
- 17:50Speaker 1: to private to provide at least two topics. Okay, that way.
- 17:55Speaker 1: It keeps him engaged, is what it does. So you know,
- 17:58Speaker 1: and that's good because I'll pay one thing Joshuador, they'll
- 18:01Speaker 1: support everybody. He's been much better in the chat room,
- 18:03Speaker 1: he really is. But you know, you got to keep
- 18:05Speaker 1: the guy in gage. He's a different burden I ever
- 18:07Speaker 1: saw one. But give them two topics to contribute. It's
- 18:11Speaker 1: like giving a dog a bone, it really is. But
- 18:16Speaker 1: Joshua knows his stuff. He has come a long way
- 18:19Speaker 1: in the chat room probably you know, compared to what
- 18:21Speaker 1: he used to be. And that again that was never mind.
- 18:25Speaker 1: But he does contribute to topics, and that f why
- 18:27Speaker 1: I write him. That's called positive reinforcement. Everybody, and I
- 18:31Speaker 1: will say, See Lightning and is glad to see you
- 18:33Speaker 1: back in the show again. Fourteen million for playing the
- 18:36Speaker 1: game not bad. All your comments See Lightning are very
- 18:39Speaker 1: much appreciated. You are a superstar on this show where
- 18:43Speaker 1: we love seeing you a week in and week out
- 18:44Speaker 1: here on the Sports of Change. Of course, we're gonna
- 18:47Speaker 1: be bringing Mark Meridian at some point and we may
- 18:50Speaker 1: have four of us, so they're gonna be the fearsome
- 18:52Speaker 1: force MB of Hockey. We're putting our resource. So they
- 18:55Speaker 1: didn't show people, So hope you guys can stick around
- 18:58Speaker 1: as we grow it. Next week, kid and I'll be
- 19:00Speaker 1: at the super Bowl. One more top event. Rod Peterson
- 19:03Speaker 1: is going to give us a little bit updated around.
- 19:05Speaker 1: But happened in panther Land last night on Wednesday night.
- 19:08Speaker 1: But yes, we're going to talk about the Detroit Red
- 19:11Speaker 1: Wings again. Why because the little revival over there. Derek
- 19:16Speaker 1: Long thirteen seventeen and four, Tom McClellan eleven four and one,
- 19:20Speaker 1: six December and the twenty ninth. By the way, my birthday,
- 19:23Speaker 1: beautiful day, of course, had sixty two of those types
- 19:25Speaker 1: of days. And the last time that the Detroit Lions
- 19:28Speaker 1: ever won a championship was on December twenty ninth, nineteen
- 19:31Speaker 1: fifty seven. Never saw that one. Of course, I won't
- 19:33Speaker 1: lie Mom and Daddel, so we're that pass they had
- 19:36Speaker 1: they had gotten married for whatever. Don't get me good.
- 19:38Speaker 1: Someone on that, but the Red Wings of the team
- 19:41Speaker 1: at first in the entire NHL in points, best record
- 19:45Speaker 1: at fifteen games with eleven three and one mark twenty
- 19:48Speaker 1: three points, Marco casper in his first among NHL rookies
- 19:53Speaker 1: and goals and second in points in thirteen games, seven
- 20:00Speaker 1: goles and eleven points. January first, then you're talking about
- 20:04Speaker 1: Lewis Raymond is tied for first in the entire NHL
- 20:08Speaker 1: in points with fifteen game, six goals, sixteen assists, twenty
- 20:12Speaker 1: two points. And then of course on December twenty nine
- 20:15Speaker 1: point I'm alto familiar with that day, Morris site Cider
- 20:20Speaker 1: has third a assist and fifth in points defenseman sixteen games,
- 20:24Speaker 1: thirteen assists, thirteen and points, and that goes back to
- 20:28Speaker 1: December of the twenty seventh. And of course the power
- 20:30Speaker 1: play best power play percentage in the NHL they're talking
- 20:33Speaker 1: about Dylan Larkin leaves the NHL and power play goals
- 20:37Speaker 1: was six and of course we talked about their eighteen
- 20:39Speaker 1: for forty six thirty nine point one percent as I
- 20:42Speaker 1: alluded to, Barkin was sixth dating back to December thirty first.
- 20:45Speaker 1: Gave you an awful lot of stats to bite on,
- 20:49Speaker 1: so you know what, Ron, what are your thought? You
- 20:50Speaker 1: mentioned it earlier, So we're going to go out there
- 20:53Speaker 1: and let you go into more detail about the incredible
- 20:55Speaker 1: turnaround that went out there and has occurred in Detroit.
- 20:59Speaker 1: Middle there, and not a minute too fast, because, like
- 21:02Speaker 1: you said, they're gonna get the Edmonton Oilers tonight. I
- 21:04Speaker 1: think it was nine o'clock you said time that doesn't
- 21:07Speaker 1: that trip take them to Calgary and I think Vancouver?
- 21:09Speaker 1: Is that correct?
- 21:10Speaker 2: Is that the West and Seattle.
- 21:13Speaker 1: And Seattle left right? They got all four of them
- 21:15Speaker 1: on the West coast, so they have obviously a lot
- 21:18Speaker 1: of important games ahead of them on the West coast
- 21:21Speaker 1: Western Canna Rod, You've got first sims on this.
- 21:25Speaker 3: Uh, it's Todd mcclillan's return to Edmonton tonight, the Todd Father.
- 21:29Speaker 3: But I don't think he's going to be successful. The
- 21:31Speaker 3: orders are really ruling. I think it's they're going after
- 21:34Speaker 3: their fourth consecutive win tonight. But George dm me the
- 21:37Speaker 3: other day. I think it was on Instagram some form
- 21:40Speaker 3: of social media, and George is like, what is with
- 21:42Speaker 3: this turnaround of the Red Wings? And it's unfortunate because
- 21:45Speaker 3: I was a Derek Lalan fan, but they just weren't
- 21:48Speaker 3: getting it done. They were underachieving. I saw them play
- 21:51Speaker 3: here in Sunrise a few weeks ago and they handily
- 21:54Speaker 3: beat the Panthers that night. If I recall, and I'm
- 21:57Speaker 3: sitting there going they have a lot of talent. I
- 21:58Speaker 3: think we talked about it on this sho Alex Ta Brinkett,
- 22:01Speaker 3: Patrick Kane Tarasenko can tell, but I mentioned his January record.
- 22:06Speaker 3: They're a very good hockey team. So I'm you know this,
- 22:09Speaker 3: it's a right of passage. Now in the NHL fire,
- 22:13Speaker 3: the coach Todd mccollham in there. Todd was fired in La,
- 22:17Speaker 3: fired in Edmonton. You look at Dean Evison now, his
- 22:22Speaker 3: name is coming up for Coach of the Year, and
- 22:23Speaker 3: if he gets Columbus into the Stanley Cup playoffs, he
- 22:26Speaker 3: might be coach of the year. And he was just
- 22:28Speaker 3: fired in Minnesota last year. So if it's hard to believe,
- 22:33Speaker 3: guys that he is firing, one coach could fire up
- 22:37Speaker 3: a team the way this has in Detroit. But that's
- 22:39Speaker 3: the only thing that's different.
- 22:41Speaker 1: George, Well, Rod, I will say this before I turn
- 22:46Speaker 1: it over to George. You talk about a great guy segue.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Look at this guy, boy, there might be potential for you.
- 22:52Speaker 1: After all, Peterson in this business. His fire up by
- 22:54Speaker 1: the way, that follow he left me short, and I
- 23:00Speaker 1: don't worry. Pensilman will get to your comments in a
- 23:03Speaker 1: few moments. But there's a quick question though your way
- 23:07Speaker 1: though Rod. Question for Rod. You're not happy with Matt
- 23:10Speaker 1: Murray in Canada?
- 23:13Speaker 3: Not really. I mean he's won his Stanley Cups in Pittsburgh,
- 23:18Speaker 3: there's no doubt about that. And he was the guy
- 23:20Speaker 3: that the Penguins decided to keep and discard Mark and
- 23:24Speaker 3: Ray Fleury. But that's going back a long ways, Pensman.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Matt Murray is not going. He's not even on Team
- 23:30Speaker 3: Canada for the Four Nations face off, so he's not
- 23:34Speaker 3: he's not our guy. Sorry, nothing against him, but he's
- 23:36Speaker 3: not on Team can We're looking for the next one
- 23:40Speaker 3: in Canada and goal we don't have one.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Before I go to George, I do want to stay
- 23:43Speaker 1: with the chat room a little bit. I know Pennsilman
- 23:45Speaker 1: is just kidding around. Parasinka might not be going to
- 23:47Speaker 1: the Panther.
- 23:48Speaker 3: That's Joshua by the way.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Yeah, I know who it is. Yeah, I know who
- 23:52Speaker 1: it is. Now he has more names than politicians to lie.
- 23:55Speaker 1: But that's besides the point. Okay, finally didn't work out
- 23:57Speaker 1: great for Boston, that's for sure. Out and see Rode, Yeah,
- 24:02Speaker 1: I knew that other one, the one that brought him
- 24:03Speaker 1: on the platform. He has a little bit of a
- 24:05Speaker 1: history or a long history in Canada, and now he's
- 24:08Speaker 1: making me a folk hero in Canada. All right, George,
- 24:11Speaker 1: go ahead.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Well yeah, there's no question about it. The signing of
- 24:16Speaker 2: God has been a great boon to the to the
- 24:18Speaker 2: Red Wings. I mean, what have they got? Twenty four
- 24:20Speaker 2: wins now twenty four twenty one and five fifty three points,
- 24:25Speaker 2: So they find themselves back in the thick of the
- 24:27Speaker 2: battle for the Eastern Conference playoff spot. The guys that
- 24:31Speaker 2: you mentioned, you know, Scott, you mentioned several names there.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Of course, Dylan Larkin is the leader of this team.
- 24:38Speaker 2: And I just think that I think they they were
- 24:42Speaker 2: tuning out the lawn. I think they were tuning them out.
- 24:46Speaker 2: He's he's a very low key kind of guy, as
- 24:48Speaker 2: you guys know, low key coach. He's pretty soft spoken man.
- 24:52Speaker 2: This was his first head coaching job in the NHL.
- 24:55Speaker 2: I just think that there was some and I don't
- 24:58Speaker 2: know if it was deliberate, but I just think the
- 24:59Speaker 2: player needed the kick in the rump and Tom will
- 25:03Speaker 2: give them that. You know. It's not all a better
- 25:07Speaker 2: Roses or whatever the saying goes. But the Red Wings
- 25:10Speaker 2: have turned it on with their new coach. He's doing
- 25:13Speaker 2: a good job. You mentioned a lot of players there, Scott,
- 25:16Speaker 2: but I mean most of all Lucas Raymond and Moritz Snyder.
- 25:19Speaker 2: Those two guys are really along with Larkin and the
- 25:23Speaker 2: other ones are leading the team. There is some concern
- 25:25Speaker 2: about Kane Keane has been missing several games again lately,
- 25:29Speaker 2: so he's injured and I don't even know what he
- 25:32Speaker 2: actually has, probably upper body, but the brink. It has
- 25:36Speaker 2: been good so far. The one that's really been a letdown,
- 25:39Speaker 2: of course is sarahzaink Go. But all around the team
- 25:43Speaker 2: just it's a sparkplug, it's a fire and you're right,
- 25:45Speaker 2: you saw it. Boston changed, Saint Louis change their coach.
- 25:49Speaker 2: But the Red Wings are for real. You're right, there's
- 25:51Speaker 2: a lot of talent there.
- 25:53Speaker 1: Well, they had to change. It's changed, they really did.
- 25:56Speaker 1: They were lifeless. They had no energy at all. And
- 26:00Speaker 1: all McClellan is done is saying, let's enjoy the game
- 26:03Speaker 1: and play to our capability. By the way you want
- 26:05Speaker 1: to talk about an update, couldn't come out at a
- 26:07Speaker 1: better time that Ran Tana just gets his first with
- 26:11Speaker 1: the Hurricanes off of Roslavic nifty drop Pass'll probably see
- 26:15Speaker 1: it later. So at le steak of this guy he
- 26:16Speaker 1: gets a goal for a new team. Fate was working
- 26:19Speaker 1: on our side, mister Peterson and mister Ichorn. This guy
- 26:22Speaker 1: here got a goal with his new club. We'll see
- 26:24Speaker 1: whether or not they, as Barker will say, the price
- 26:28Speaker 1: is right. If it is right, it will be high.
- 26:32Speaker 1: But yeah, the red markble turnound is attributed to the
- 26:35Speaker 1: fact that I've never seen a coaching change make that
- 26:37Speaker 1: big of an impact on a team. I understand the
- 26:40Speaker 1: short term, but let's face the reality. Nothing against Derek Lallone,
- 26:45Speaker 1: but there came off of Jeff Blashell and now Derrick Lalone,
- 26:49Speaker 1: an unproven head coach. And then you bring in Tom McClellan,
- 26:52Speaker 1: who's got over six hundred wins of Stanley Cup in
- 26:54Speaker 1: his pocket, let alone with the Red Wings, and Steve
- 26:57Speaker 1: Eiserman knew he was again a lot of u stuff.
- 26:59Speaker 1: They should hire Joel Quinble. Well, that's why we're doing
- 27:02Speaker 1: these shows, and that's why Eisaman is doing his job,
- 27:06Speaker 1: and that's why Tod McClelland is doing his job, because
- 27:09Speaker 1: we're talking about it and the other ones may renewed.
- 27:11Speaker 1: I'm a firm believer Rod. You probably can attest to
- 27:13Speaker 1: George stand that when you're over in our situation as
- 27:17Speaker 1: a member of the media, I don't ever second gets
- 27:19Speaker 1: the front office executive. We're doing nothing. And the reason
- 27:22Speaker 1: I know I don't because we're there watching them do
- 27:25Speaker 1: their job. Let alone the average fan. Average fan can
- 27:29Speaker 1: say whatever they want, they pay what they they pay
- 27:31Speaker 1: these amount of money that they want to be fanatics.
- 27:33Speaker 1: We're members of the media. We're taught in school to
- 27:37Speaker 1: be impartial, neutral and objective. And you can't cheer. Nobody's
- 27:42Speaker 1: saying you can't cheer, but you better do it internal
- 27:44Speaker 1: otherwise if you end up losing, they lose. You have
- 27:47Speaker 1: a what do you call a morg in the locker room.
- 27:49Speaker 1: Of course nowadays are any as much locker room axis
- 27:52Speaker 1: as there was, but everybody gets the point that understand
- 27:54Speaker 1: what we're talking about. That's all I'm saying.
- 27:58Speaker 3: We're cheering in a press block in Florida at a
- 28:01Speaker 3: college game this season. Yeah, I'm not saying you got
- 28:08Speaker 3: in trouble for it, but I thought it was the Gator.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Game or No, I was cheering. No, I was just
- 28:14Speaker 1: sitting there doing my job. Okay, you can't even cheer
- 28:18Speaker 1: in a press box a little loan, an outdoor one.
- 28:21Speaker 1: You ever been there before. This is a swamp. This
- 28:24Speaker 1: is called green card Canada or whatever. It's hard to
- 28:27Speaker 1: have up there. The swamp is a different anamal. I'm
- 28:30Speaker 1: not knocking it wrong, not just being I'm being really
- 28:32Speaker 1: sincerely honest. I don't cheer anyways. I'm a creature. I
- 28:35Speaker 1: don't do it. I keep quiet. I don't do anything.
- 28:38Speaker 1: It's hard to arrange to anybody thinking I have keep quiet,
- 28:40Speaker 1: But I do do it because that thing called absorb
- 28:43Speaker 1: take notes, it does happen there. That doesn't mean the
- 28:45Speaker 1: fact that I don't interact with my college.
- 28:47Speaker 3: It's interesting you say we don't criticize them management. I
- 28:51Speaker 3: largely don't. I largely don't. But as to Detroit guys,
- 28:55Speaker 3: are you gonna tell me that there was newspaper guys
- 28:56Speaker 3: that never went after Red Wings ownership president or GM
- 29:01Speaker 3: over the years.
- 29:03Speaker 2: Of course there were you know they did it, but
- 29:06Speaker 2: but you got to remain listen, this is I didn't
- 29:10Speaker 2: get that name hockey town for nothing. So the fans
- 29:13Speaker 2: had this levelfair going on, as you know, right and Scott.
- 29:16Speaker 2: But but yeah, when when it but let's face it
- 29:19Speaker 2: isaman is Iaman. Okay, you're talking about a hockey god
- 29:22Speaker 2: in Detroit. Put them right up there next to uh
- 29:25Speaker 2: Stevie and and Gordy and and del Vecchio and Lindsay
- 29:28Speaker 2: those guys. So what what has happened is the media
- 29:32Speaker 2: here have been not is let's say, vocal the last
- 29:36Speaker 2: several years that maybe they should have near the end
- 29:39Speaker 2: of ken Holland yeat. But to answer your question, no, no,
- 29:42Speaker 2: they they went it justified. Yeah, they get criticism.
- 29:46Speaker 1: Okay, well they got their Forrest Stanley Tuk. What do
- 29:49Speaker 1: you expect. Yeah, I don't think anybody's gonna come down
- 29:52Speaker 1: Bill Zo and Paul Maurice. Hey, the Panther got their
- 29:56Speaker 1: title or not as much if they had lost the
- 30:00Speaker 1: that's a different situation. That's a big mountain. But they didn't.
- 30:04Speaker 1: They got their They had their banner over at that arena,
- 30:07Speaker 1: the Panthers Arena. They got it. They don't have to
- 30:09Speaker 1: worry about it. The gorillas out their back. But the
- 30:12Speaker 1: I don't relate to criticize anybody. There's a guy here
- 30:14Speaker 1: in Miami, Craig. I don't think of Craig named Craig,
- 30:17Speaker 1: miss excuse me wrong. He always taught me, especially during
- 30:21Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. I never used to like to go on
- 30:23Speaker 1: the Marlin postgame interviews to talk to Don Manningly afterwards.
- 30:27Speaker 1: There's it's easy for sus sing here and talk about
- 30:28Speaker 1: the guy making decisions afterwards. I don't believe in that
- 30:32Speaker 1: give that. I would ask Manly a question or two
- 30:34Speaker 1: about the game of posing person the next day, so
- 30:37Speaker 1: he has an all the knight to think about it.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Let alone catch them up. That's why you have a
- 30:41Speaker 1: cooling down period, you really do. But I'm second that strategy.
- 30:45Speaker 1: If there's an issue with a player in the locker room,
- 30:47Speaker 1: I'm not going to ask about personnelity. Of course, I
- 30:49Speaker 1: want to know what the what? Where is there a
- 30:51Speaker 1: disc and act? That's a different story. But as far
- 30:55Speaker 1: as the general manager should have made this, not going
- 30:58Speaker 1: there no way. If I was dark smart, I'd be
- 31:02Speaker 1: doing that job, not alone doing that.
- 31:04Speaker 3: So we let the fans do it for sure. But
- 31:06Speaker 3: I think there's only one guy in this town that
- 31:09Speaker 3: would go after the Panthers, and it's Great Kota of
- 31:12Speaker 3: the Miami Herald. Like everybody right right, but he's the
- 31:16Speaker 3: only guy that would do it. George Richards, you and
- 31:18Speaker 3: I love you've had him on this show.
- 31:20Speaker 1: I can't see mine.
- 31:22Speaker 3: I couldn't see George being that guy because I don't
- 31:25Speaker 3: think he is that guy to go after a team.
- 31:28Speaker 1: Well a good tact, you know who Craig Cody reminds
- 31:31Speaker 1: me of georgean related to he's remind me of Rob Parker.
- 31:35Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I remember going on the roll
- 31:37Speaker 1: with the Alliance, and Rob and I are a good friends.
- 31:40Speaker 1: We can along roll good. I can just about everybody
- 31:43Speaker 1: except Jim Hawkins long nine million life times ago. And
- 31:46Speaker 1: I want and i'll Rob one of these days to
- 31:48Speaker 1: go to Launch for dinner. I'll tell you about Jim Hawkins.
- 31:50Speaker 1: I don't want to get too far off the state
- 31:52Speaker 1: of that subject. But Great Cody's not afraid to go
- 31:54Speaker 1: off anyway. He's got the clout Miami to do it.
- 31:57Speaker 1: But but Rob Parker know, but that's that's Greg he's
- 32:01Speaker 1: a Miami guy. I'm not saying he's an icon. He's
- 32:04Speaker 1: been around for a while. Once upon a time he
- 32:06Speaker 1: worked over at the I believe, if I remember right,
- 32:08Speaker 1: the Fort Lauderdale's son sent one on Brower. I think
- 32:10Speaker 1: he's with my Harold. I don't know, but he's been
- 32:13Speaker 1: in this market for a long long time, so sure
- 32:15Speaker 1: he'll go after him. But doesn't mean I gotta listen
- 32:17Speaker 1: to him or take him seriously. My interactions with him
- 32:21Speaker 1: have been okay, but don't expect him to send me
- 32:24Speaker 1: a Christmas card. And I won't send him one either,
- 32:26Speaker 1: But we're not gonna send hate mail.
- 32:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not saying Greg's not a good guy. I've
- 32:31Speaker 3: talked to him at games. He never goes to games largely.
- 32:34Speaker 3: That's his thing, is ripping teams, you know, and it's
- 32:40Speaker 3: not George's. Yeah, you're gonna say something, George.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Sorry, you got those in every market, but you got
- 32:45Speaker 1: them in Canada too. Everybodys that rips somebody gotta have
- 32:47Speaker 1: a negative.
- 32:48Speaker 3: Not not like he used to be though.
- 32:50Speaker 1: No, Yeah, but did you once tell me? And I
- 32:54Speaker 1: don't know about this too much of the Panthers, I
- 32:56Speaker 1: haven't dealt with him a lot in the last couple
- 32:58Speaker 1: of years. I've been so busy building this flat for him.
- 33:00Speaker 1: But I have no interest in hammering a team due
- 33:04Speaker 1: to podcasting. If I'm going to do it, I could
- 33:07Speaker 1: do it on paper and make sure I have enough
- 33:09Speaker 1: facts to back up my opinion. My opinion doesn't have
- 33:11Speaker 1: to be that loud because sometimes teams get on a roll,
- 33:14Speaker 1: they're having a fat period a period of time. That's
- 33:18Speaker 1: why I have eighty two games. You don't decide a
- 33:20Speaker 1: Stanley cupp after after long forty games. I'm sure there's
- 33:23Speaker 1: a lot of infront. You may have an idea who's
- 33:26Speaker 1: gonna be but that idea is they're going to be
- 33:28Speaker 1: decided who clinches and who gets knocked out. Go ahead, Georgia. No.
- 33:33Speaker 2: I was going to say, yeah, I mean, you know,
- 33:34Speaker 2: the criticism for management, I you know, I think it's
- 33:39Speaker 2: still there. I really do. I mean the Canadian press probably,
- 33:42Speaker 2: but like I said, in Detroit and some of the
- 33:45Speaker 2: cities where they've been Stanley Cup champions, it is definitely
- 33:48Speaker 2: toned down. I mean people were saying, you know, with
- 33:52Speaker 2: the isamn situation, not knowing what the heck is going
- 33:55Speaker 2: on here? And why he was waiting so long to
- 33:59Speaker 2: get rid of alone. But the fact of the matter
- 34:02Speaker 2: is is that management pulls the strings. We know that
- 34:05Speaker 2: they signed the players, they got the money, they got this,
- 34:08Speaker 2: and that it's it's a very important position in hockey,
- 34:11Speaker 2: and certainly Detroit has been an exception to the rule.
- 34:14Speaker 2: Like Scott said, you're never gonna argue it forre Stanley Cupps.
- 34:17Speaker 2: But now that's kind of you know, been a while
- 34:19Speaker 2: back so many ways. I just wanted to just say that, yeah,
- 34:22Speaker 2: there is still criticism, maybe not as fierce maybe as
- 34:26Speaker 2: in some cities, but there is a little bit that
- 34:29Speaker 2: going on still in Detroit.
- 34:30Speaker 1: Well, if I understood it up there, the only reason
- 34:33Speaker 1: why Eisaman took a little while longer to do it
- 34:36Speaker 1: is he wanted He wanted McClelland have I watch three
- 34:40Speaker 1: or four games to get an idea what was wrong
- 34:42Speaker 1: with it. Took the job a little bit more prepared
- 34:45Speaker 1: than he would have otherwise. Once he had the opportunity
- 34:48Speaker 1: to watch film that was a different animal. Right, It's
- 34:50Speaker 1: like you go back to well here, Rod, think about
- 34:52Speaker 1: this for a minute, Okay, you go to Hoos's right,
- 34:54Speaker 1: and what did Gene happen to say when he gets
- 34:56Speaker 1: his hands on the WHISLW, let's even hand I've been dealt,
- 35:00Speaker 1: And pretty much that's exactly what Tom m calling it.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Let's see a hand, I've been done, got our tail
- 35:04Speaker 1: kicks first night. Okay, what happens after that? Don't see
- 35:07Speaker 1: the losing. We're starting to win what I mean? That's
- 35:12Speaker 1: that the foreign language there for a little while, right,
- 35:14Speaker 1: but now all of a sudden, these are starting to
- 35:16Speaker 1: wake up. The team that looks like they were down
- 35:18Speaker 1: and out is definitely alive and well. But hopefully after
- 35:22Speaker 1: this next four games on the West Coast, if they
- 35:24Speaker 1: can at least four to five six points out of it,
- 35:27Speaker 1: that will certainly put him in a much better position
- 35:29Speaker 1: going into that four Nations thing, whatever you call it.
- 35:32Speaker 1: I have no idea, and we'll talk about that on
- 35:34Speaker 1: the Future show. I just feel that all the things
- 35:36Speaker 1: that we're talking about to night are very timely. And
- 35:38Speaker 1: that was what's interesting, and and Pensilman says, never heard
- 35:42Speaker 1: of the guy? Well, you know what, if you've been
- 35:44Speaker 1: in this media market, and I know Pennsylvany have been
- 35:46Speaker 1: following it for all, very totally pretty A lot of
- 35:50Speaker 1: people know about the guy. I know about him, Ron
- 35:52Speaker 1: knows about him. Anybody.
- 35:54Speaker 3: He's the guy that called Connor McDavid overrated in the
- 35:56Speaker 3: Stanley Cup final last year.
- 35:58Speaker 1: You remember, relate to this guy if you say that, ding, oh,
- 36:02Speaker 1: that'll set him off. Okay, all right, So think about
- 36:04Speaker 1: a pencilman before you have two or three shots in
- 36:06Speaker 1: the chat room. But if he's telling Connor McDavid overrated,
- 36:09Speaker 1: then if he's doing that, oh now I understand you
- 36:13Speaker 1: know name, I'm so word associated and talk about our
- 36:15Speaker 1: show being a winner last week.
- 36:17Speaker 2: Ron.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Anytime you have a title as Connor McDavid being the
- 36:21Speaker 1: example that bomb, get a few eyes on that. Great stuff,
- 36:25Speaker 1: all right? Any closing talks about the Red Wings revival.
- 36:28Speaker 1: I think it's great what they use as I hope
- 36:30Speaker 1: they can keep it up. George, Yeah, now I remember
- 36:34Speaker 1: hearing that I told you it wouldn't matter a water check.
- 36:36Speaker 2: Yeah no, but I agree Scott, And this is an
- 36:39Speaker 2: important Western Canada swing for them. They got four tough games,
- 36:43Speaker 2: a couple back to back, and I really think that
- 36:46Speaker 2: to continue to shine like they are, they got to
- 36:50Speaker 2: just play good, hard nose hockey and they got to
- 36:52Speaker 2: throw their weight around that's why again getting back to
- 36:54Speaker 2: this dominic shine, they got a two year contract. I
- 36:57Speaker 2: think he's really going to help this team. Physical is
- 37:00Speaker 2: an important part of this game, all right.
- 37:04Speaker 1: Part of the show. Go ahead, Rod Hanson helps you
- 37:05Speaker 1: want to add to it?
- 37:06Speaker 3: Ahead, Well, I hope they make the playoffs because I
- 37:09Speaker 3: picked them to make the playoffs and for Tampa Bay
- 37:10Speaker 3: to miss. So I'd like to just be right. Be
- 37:13Speaker 3: a hell of a story if they pull this off.
- 37:15Speaker 1: Yeah, Rod, I'll tell you I like this guy. Let
- 37:17Speaker 1: me just settle for being right. Okay, no problem. You
- 37:20Speaker 1: can say that on our platform all day long with
- 37:22Speaker 1: for peters I just want to I just want to
- 37:24Speaker 1: be right, and nothing wrong with that. Rod. If I
- 37:27Speaker 1: were there, I'll give you a pet on the back
- 37:28Speaker 1: and all that good stuff. Since you know, I'm ok
- 37:30Speaker 1: hero there and you know what, You're starting to become
- 37:33Speaker 1: well known here thanks to your boss. Okay, just trying
- 37:35Speaker 1: to make sure we get the word about here that
- 37:37Speaker 1: mister peters In is a real deal. Okay. He's working
- 37:41Speaker 1: as Josh as Pensilman saying he's doing really well and
- 37:44Speaker 1: this system good stuff. Continue to build you up a
- 37:47Speaker 1: little bit, but we can build it out even far
- 37:49Speaker 1: and wide like Canada. Okay, but that after all Canada,
- 37:52Speaker 1: and they say during the national go far and wide,
- 37:54Speaker 1: you know. And in fact I ended up singing the
- 37:57Speaker 1: rendition on there. I hope I didn't lose most of
- 37:59Speaker 1: your audience of mine credit. All right, So that's a
- 38:02Speaker 1: part of the show here where mister Peterson is going
- 38:05Speaker 1: to give us his Panthers takes here at the King's
- 38:07Speaker 1: game last night. You had your cats in both podcasts
- 38:09Speaker 1: every Wednesday, the floor is yours. And I'll give my
- 38:12Speaker 1: voice a probably thirty second to a minute break unless
- 38:14Speaker 1: you take longer, and it won't matter because I'm guaranteed
- 38:16Speaker 1: I won't lose my voice. And it's Candy and Georgia
- 38:19Speaker 1: doing fire up. I'm not okay.
- 38:21Speaker 3: Well, it's probably typical of any fan base, but people
- 38:26Speaker 3: were all over the Panthers over the last couple of weeks.
- 38:29Speaker 3: They were went five hundred on the road, and they
- 38:30Speaker 3: hadn't played that well. And they come home and in
- 38:33Speaker 3: the first game back in a homestand they blanked the
- 38:35Speaker 3: Kings three nothing. Sir Gibabrovski nets his forty sixth career shutout.
- 38:40Speaker 3: Paul Maurice wins his nineteen hundredth game. Dmitri Kulikov plays
- 38:45Speaker 3: as it in his eight hundredth game. Matthew and Chuck
- 38:47Speaker 3: has a goal and to assist, and they take over
- 38:49Speaker 3: first place ahead of the Lease, and everything's great again.
- 38:53Speaker 3: All it took was one night and they and the
- 38:56Speaker 3: Panthers were in first place. And as far as the
- 38:58Speaker 3: Lightning go, they're up and down. Where your update in
- 39:02Speaker 3: the game where you not The Kings are there tonight,
- 39:04Speaker 3: the Lightning are just they're touching got last I look
- 39:07Speaker 3: the second Wilid card Berth. So we'll see trade deadline
- 39:11Speaker 3: coming up March seventh. I don't know if the Panthers
- 39:13Speaker 3: will do anything. I think they will, and the Lightning
- 39:16Speaker 3: are probably going to have to if they want to
- 39:17Speaker 3: bank the playoffs this year.
- 39:19Speaker 1: We've put this coming up by mister Pencilman. Panthers getting
- 39:23Speaker 1: so much hate from the FANTE. Yeah, I agree, no
- 39:28Speaker 1: doubt about that. But then again, welcome to South Flard.
- 39:30Speaker 1: You've been hearing your whole life yell. No better than that.
- 39:32Speaker 1: But I don't know if there's many people getting more
- 39:34Speaker 1: hate than the Panthers, let alone the fact that Jimmy
- 39:36Speaker 1: Butler will be out of here before long either. Guy
- 39:39Speaker 1: he again he deserves it. So I will get on
- 39:42Speaker 1: the Jimmy Butler. I have a little voice I do.
- 39:45Speaker 1: That will be as Ernie Harror will say, oh God,
- 39:49Speaker 1: all right, that said? Great should tonight? Great turnout here.
- 39:52Speaker 1: We appreciate everybody for keeping an eye on us. We
- 39:55Speaker 1: do this every Thursday night at eight o'clock Easter time.
- 39:58Speaker 1: Candy Hablingo and I and the softboard or something. We'll
- 40:00Speaker 1: be in New Orleans next week, so we won't be
- 40:02Speaker 1: here doing the show next week. I will, however, be
- 40:04Speaker 1: trying probably later in the week Rod trying. I have
- 40:07Speaker 1: to find out what's going on in Orleans with space
- 40:10Speaker 1: to check in Rob Peterson Show. The good news is
- 40:14Speaker 1: is I spent a fair amount of money at the
- 40:16Speaker 1: Apple Store so I can have headsets that will weed
- 40:19Speaker 1: out a lot of the noise that's over there. He
- 40:21Speaker 1: got a new iPad pro, so my equipment's up to date,
- 40:24Speaker 1: my headsets up me. I just have to give you
- 40:27Speaker 1: more information about when I'm able to get on Rob
- 40:30Speaker 1: Peterson Show within five to ten to fifteen minutes. It
- 40:32Speaker 1: is what it is. I'll do the best I can
- 40:33Speaker 1: and you'll be notified as soon as I get some information,
- 40:36Speaker 1: most likely on Tuesday or so.
- 40:38Speaker 3: I'm expecting to have you on at least Thursday and
- 40:41Speaker 3: Friday for fifteen minute segments next week.
- 40:43Speaker 1: So I promise you I'll do the best I can.
- 40:46Speaker 1: The thing you've got going for you, pal is the
- 40:48Speaker 1: fact that we're an hour behind in time, So that'll
- 40:51Speaker 1: help a little bit. But the thing is we're saying
- 40:53Speaker 1: an hour away out in hamm and Louisiana. But I
- 40:56Speaker 1: promise you'ren I will do everything in my power.
- 40:58Speaker 3: That's homo selfief. Eastern Louisiana University. Did you go to
- 41:02Speaker 3: Boca Town Center or Fort Lauderdale Galleria for your iPad?
- 41:06Speaker 1: Oh? I go to boat all the time.
- 41:10Speaker 3: Just a question?
- 41:12Speaker 1: Was there a distant I could a guy because I
- 41:14Speaker 1: work on the rock.
- 41:15Speaker 3: Because I got to go buy a new computer myself.
- 41:17Speaker 3: So I want to go wherever Scott goes Scott the MotorCity.
- 41:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I got to leave there. I have to do
- 41:23Speaker 1: with negotiating for him in Hill. But we get our
- 41:26Speaker 1: next deal locally, I'll have to do that too. At
- 41:28Speaker 1: least I have a guy locally that I can have
- 41:30Speaker 1: a good time with. All right, back to the chat room.
- 41:32Speaker 1: See Lightning is on fire. I love that name. What
- 41:34Speaker 1: a great name for this guy. I have a soft
- 41:36Speaker 1: spot for the Tampa Bay Lightning, as it's part of
- 41:38Speaker 1: my name. Yeah, I'm sure you do. But you know what,
- 41:41Speaker 1: I have nothing but the most utmost respect for the
- 41:44Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Lightning. One of my old friends, but Wicket
- 41:46Speaker 1: used to work there formerly with the Detroit Pissions, So
- 41:48Speaker 1: I have a boatload of respect for the Lightning. He
- 41:51Speaker 1: asked them the Motor City Slapper. And I'll probably be
- 41:54Speaker 1: flap happy if I ever get me sleep this week,
- 41:55Speaker 1: because I've probably tell how many hours of sleep I've
- 41:58Speaker 1: had on maybe one hand two if you include the thumb. Okay,
- 42:02Speaker 1: about six hours all week. But it's been fun trying
- 42:05Speaker 1: to get ready for the Super Bowl.
- 42:06Speaker 2: Rod.
- 42:06Speaker 1: I promise you, my friend, I will do the best
- 42:08Speaker 1: I can to get on at least once twice. It
- 42:10Speaker 1: just depends on where I'm at in the building. My
- 42:13Speaker 1: partner there, I thought we were going to get a heat,
- 42:15Speaker 1: was going to get a table, and he didn't get one.
- 42:18Speaker 3: They're tough to get. Well. Our viewers, our viewers love you,
- 42:22Speaker 3: just like what's he calling himself tonight? Pencilman Sports loves you.
- 42:27Speaker 3: Same thing man, It's uh, it's not reserved for South Florida.
- 42:32Speaker 2: Well give you an update too, Tampa one nothing end
- 42:35Speaker 2: of second period.
- 42:37Speaker 1: There you go. I'll takes all over the place, great stuff,
- 42:39Speaker 1: Sports of Change, Scott Morgan, Rock Motor City, man Mouth,
- 42:43Speaker 1: Rod Peterson, George Iichorn. We do this on Thursday night
- 42:46Speaker 1: and at some point Mark Meriday will come here. We'll
- 42:48Speaker 1: make it a four some. But this, this threesome is fine.
- 42:51Speaker 1: And last week when George unfortunately fell a little bit,
- 42:53Speaker 1: oh Ron and I carried the fort. We did pretty good.
- 42:55Speaker 1: And She's got pretty good compliments from a lot of
- 42:58Speaker 1: people with the energy level. But then again, I've been
- 43:00Speaker 1: working with Rod for a while, and I will say
- 43:02Speaker 1: this as much as I have a good time with
- 43:04Speaker 1: this guy, and we really joke around and playoff and
- 43:06Speaker 1: we're able to feed off of each other. When you've
- 43:09Speaker 1: got three veterans that you have on this show tonight
- 43:12Speaker 1: that cover an awful lot of hockey for a lot
- 43:14Speaker 1: of years, it's pretty easy to go out there and
- 43:17Speaker 1: be able to talk easy about this sport.
- 43:20Speaker 2: It really is, Yeah, it is, and it's a pleasure
- 43:23Speaker 2: in pencilman. Thank you. It is good to be back.
- 43:26Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
- 43:26Speaker 2: I was a little more than a little under the
- 43:29Speaker 2: weather last week, and plus there was a funeral in
- 43:32Speaker 2: the family. So but here we are, middle of a
- 43:35Speaker 2: hockey season. I think it's great. It really is so rough.
- 43:39Speaker 1: So with that said, Candie, I believe is going to

- 47:02Speaker 1: Right, Choco, Pencilman got a couple of girls up there.
- 47:06Speaker 1: Can't you keep it straight based on this one? When
- 47:08Speaker 1: it's a band and show when you host it? Okay,
- 47:11Speaker 1: So you come up with it and you and you
- 47:13Speaker 1: can get behind the chat room and you want to
- 47:15Speaker 1: host it, we'll talk about it. The only part of
- 47:18Speaker 1: the NBA and that matters is the last two minutes.
- 47:20Speaker 2: You know, that's not original. Jerry Green said that thirty
- 47:24Speaker 2: five years ago in Detroit.
- 47:26Speaker 1: Well, listen, don't not the guy. He doesn't know a
- 47:28Speaker 1: lot about the NBA. But if he knows this much,
- 47:30Speaker 1: give him his due. It's called positive reinforcement. I can't
- 47:33Speaker 1: pencil it anything I could give him, and it's not.
- 47:36Speaker 1: He hasn't had it easy lately with me, as Rod
- 47:39Speaker 1: Peterson went publicly on with thirty two States in the
- 47:42Speaker 1: Nations that he obviously is intimidated by me, and well
- 47:47Speaker 1: you can well you know, but the back of the
- 47:49Speaker 1: matter is, I will say this about Pencilman, whatever you
- 47:53Speaker 1: want to call him, he's learned a lot. It's called
- 47:56Speaker 1: it's called tough teaching. But the his credit, he could
- 47:58Speaker 1: have handled it one or two ways. He could have
- 48:01Speaker 1: sat in the corner and psalter. He could have stood
- 48:03Speaker 1: there and took it. And he's obviously much better because
- 48:06Speaker 1: of that. And I'll leave it at that. Great show tonight,
- 48:08Speaker 1: great participation. I'll love all the interaction and the fact
- 48:12Speaker 1: that we come. We work as hard as we can
- 48:15Speaker 1: to come up with the best topics available. So on
