- 1:34Speaker 2: Round one, very one sided Round one. I could probably
- 1:39Speaker 2: think of another word, but it just it wasn't eventful. Yeah,
- 1:43Speaker 2: I guess that's the best way to put I would
- 1:44Speaker 2: say North Bay and Peterborough did their best to try
- 1:47Speaker 2: and save the first round, but it was exciting. It
- 1:51Speaker 2: was very lopsided and then round number one. Five out
- 1:55Speaker 2: of eight series were sweeps, which is yes, we've seen
- 2:00Speaker 2: that in the past in the Ontario Hockey League. However,
- 2:05Speaker 2: No one sound didn't help the case of of it
- 2:08Speaker 2: being a competitive first round, So we're gonna get to that.
- 2:11Speaker 2: We've got time, Colin has his has his words to
- 2:14Speaker 2: say and share with the folks, so we're gonna get
- 2:16Speaker 2: to that in segment number two. You can see on

- 2:44Speaker 2: a lot of things to get to that happened throughout
- 2:46Speaker 2: round one, whether it had to do with the playoffs
- 2:48Speaker 2: or not. We will discuss that exceptional status is up
- 2:54Speaker 2: for debate again. Young man is up for that, uh
- 3:01Speaker 2: right name. Yeah, Yeah, that works, So we're gonna chat
- 3:07Speaker 2: about that, uh and then we're gonna hit a break.
- 3:10Speaker 2: That's when Brandon's going to join us. What teams got
- 3:13Speaker 2: eliminated and why they got eliminated, How they got eliminated.
- 3:17Speaker 2: It was yeah, again, ugly for some teams, dominant for
- 3:22Speaker 2: other teams, especially the Flint Firebirds. So we'll touch on
- 3:24Speaker 2: that and and then of course we'll look ahead to
- 3:26Speaker 2: to round number two and yeah, that should be uh,
- 3:29Speaker 2: that should be pretty fun. So let's get right into it.
- 3:34Speaker 2: The ohl headlines of of the week. Sorry, I'm trying
- 3:37Speaker 2: to focus on my phone too, because I got a
- 3:39Speaker 2: text message that's I can't really understand. Oh there we go,
- 3:42Speaker 2: all right, I get it now. Thank you Wardy for
- 3:44Speaker 2: the for the message. I enjoyed that can't Yeah, yeah,
- 3:52Speaker 2: but I can't wait for that. I'll tee you up. Well,
- 3:56Speaker 2: well we'll get her going. But yeah, let's uh, let's
- 4:00Speaker 2: start with some headlines here, and we're gonna start with
- 4:01Speaker 2: the London Knights. Yes, their season did come to an
- 4:04Speaker 2: end after Round number one in a five game loss
- 4:07Speaker 2: to the Suit Greyhounds, but some good news for a
- 4:12Speaker 2: couple of their players. Will Nickel signs his entry level
- 4:15Speaker 2: contract with the Edmonton Oilers, and then the Los Angeles
- 4:19Speaker 2: Kings inc Henry Brustevitch to his entry level contract as well.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Colin ward Is that's a you know, obviously they wanted
- 4:27Speaker 2: to play further in the playoffs, much like the London
- 4:29Speaker 2: Knights are used to over the last number of years.
- 4:31Speaker 2: But to sign your elc and and you know, get
- 4:35Speaker 2: that InCD and get that done and over with is
- 4:38Speaker 2: pretty exciting for those two, those two gentlemen.
- 4:41Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, William Nichols seventh round pick one hundred
- 4:43Speaker 3: ninety six overall out of the oiler for the London
- 4:45Speaker 3: Knife to the Edmonton Oilers. That's impressive. I mean, that's
- 4:47Speaker 3: to get your contract like that. That's pretty cool to
- 4:49Speaker 3: get a contract draft in the seventh round like that,
- 4:52Speaker 3: and you never know, righty, maybe be one of those
- 4:53Speaker 3: guys that plays a good role in the National Hockey
- 4:56Speaker 3: League goes up quick. There's been zero bit moments with
- 5:00Speaker 3: the Detroit Red Wings this year, but maybe half a
- 5:02Speaker 3: percentage of one is em at Finney late round pick
- 5:05Speaker 3: like that. So it's kind of cool to see that
- 5:07Speaker 3: maybe this is a guy that comes out of the
- 5:09Speaker 3: OHL and goes to the next level and performs right
- 5:11Speaker 3: away at the NHL level. I mean, William Nichol has
- 5:14Speaker 3: been great for London Nights over the last few seasons
- 5:16Speaker 3: that they've had him in.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Henry Percavage puts all.
- 5:19Speaker 3: The rest to the n C double a crap talk. Yeah,
- 5:23Speaker 3: and that's that's nice. That's nice to see for Henry.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Get your YELC. Get your yel C right that you
- 5:29Speaker 3: can take care of the parents, You can take care
- 5:31Speaker 3: of the family. You can take care of everyone in
- 5:33Speaker 3: your family, your your future grandkids, you can take care
- 5:36Speaker 3: of the honey. You can take care of them all.
- 5:38Speaker 3: And when you get your l you can take care
- 5:42Speaker 3: of it all.
- 5:44Speaker 2: L high. You know it's Brandon's got to clip that one.
- 5:52Speaker 3: But yeah, it I just think that, like I feel
- 5:55Speaker 3: like guys rushed to the n C Double A to
- 5:58Speaker 3: get to get this nil money. And I mean, to
- 6:01Speaker 3: be honest, you're throwing around like it's candy, so why
- 6:03Speaker 3: wouldn't you take it? But at the end of the day,
- 6:05Speaker 3: for Henry Estavas to get that ELC your first round pick,
- 6:09Speaker 3: I I really appreciate that of a player nowadays in
- 6:13Speaker 3: the OHL to do that, I think you do it
- 6:15Speaker 3: the right way and it's exciting to see for Henry
- 6:17Speaker 3: and I think he's gonna be one of those guys.
- 6:19Speaker 3: And hey, does he play in the AHL next year?
- 6:21Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, exactly. I mean talking about a guy who
- 6:24Speaker 2: could play in the AHL next year if the world changes. Obviously,
- 6:28Speaker 2: Porter Martone a guy that did go to the NC
- 6:30Speaker 2: DOUBLEA to Michigan's little brother, Michigan State, which, by the way,
- 6:35Speaker 2: frozen four this week. Michigan on their way to the
- 6:38Speaker 2: Final four NCUBA hockey and the National Championship for March
- 6:42Speaker 2: Madness NCAA basketball, Go Blue a big week. If our
- 6:47Speaker 2: football team sucks, we better be good at something else.
- 6:50Speaker 2: And basketball and hockey are on the docket for the
- 6:53Speaker 2: Michigan Wolverines. So whip. Okay, all right, I don't know
- 7:03Speaker 2: how to go about that one. Porter Martone finished his
- 7:09Speaker 2: season at Michigan State, and.
- 7:12Speaker 4: What a good one BC with the crickets out, Yeah,
- 7:20Speaker 4: well we're buzzing.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well Worth Texas. Where's Ohio State? Yeah? Okay,
- 7:27Speaker 2: I mean, hey, hey, you want to get into there?
- 7:29Speaker 3: When when's the that happened by the crickets? All right,
- 7:34Speaker 3: you didn't bring your hat, went, you went silent. You
- 7:37Speaker 3: went silent for two months, and I never heard anything
- 7:39Speaker 3: until Ohio State lost a game.
- 7:41Speaker 2: That's why we roll though in whatever whatever school. Port Marton,
- 7:45Speaker 2: congrats on your NHL debut.
- 7:47Speaker 3: Uh no, that's cool, that's right on for him.
- 7:50Speaker 2: I mean, I will I do envy Ohio State because
- 7:53Speaker 2: you don't have Portnoy in your corner. Yeah, I hate that. Yeah,
- 7:58Speaker 2: but I don't. Marton signed his ELC, made his NHL debut,
- 8:03Speaker 2: and then scored the overtime winner on Sunday to uh
- 8:06Speaker 2: to help lift Philadelphia over a couple of teams Detroit included.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Yeah they're done, and uh, Philadelphia is in a better
- 8:14Speaker 2: spot to make the playoffs than Detroit. Yeah, but congratulations
- 8:19Speaker 2: to Porter Martone. He already looks like he is. Uh,
- 8:21Speaker 2: he's already inked his spot in the lineup next year.
- 8:24Speaker 2: He has not looked out of place by any means.
- 8:27Speaker 2: And yes, they did lose to Detroit on the weekend,
- 8:31Speaker 2: but I thought Porter Marton was really good in that game.
- 8:34Speaker 3: I mean he's a dominant player. I mean we saw
- 8:36Speaker 3: that the short term with Sarnia. Oh remember the Sarnia
- 8:39Speaker 3: sting when they had port of Marton. Sorry for Sarnia fans,
- 8:42Speaker 3: this is more of a thing at front office members there.
- 8:45Speaker 3: And Uh then obviously what he did in Mississauga slash
- 8:48Speaker 3: Branton over the years, I mean, this guy power forward
- 8:51Speaker 3: in his draft year. We saw him last year how
- 8:53Speaker 3: effective he was for Brampton. The reason why Brampton probably
- 8:56Speaker 3: went all in because the guys like him Jack Ivankovic
- 9:01Speaker 3: who later parted ways. But those guys would We saw
- 9:03Speaker 3: on the OHL level what they did. Absolutely we expected
- 9:07Speaker 3: port Ofmartone to go be a star. And I mean
- 9:08Speaker 3: when you see Matthew Schaeffer have the year he's had
- 9:11Speaker 3: with the Islanders and how good he's been, you see
- 9:13Speaker 3: what Beckett.
- 9:13Speaker 2: Seneca has done.
- 9:14Speaker 3: Beck At Seneca Portmartone are kind of a carbon copy
- 9:17Speaker 3: from drafts previous to each other. They're kind of a
- 9:20Speaker 3: carbon copy player of the way they play the game.
- 9:22Speaker 3: So I'm ecited to see a Portmartone can do the NHL.
- 9:24Speaker 2: I'm very intrigued.
- 9:25Speaker 3: I think he's a guy that next season is a
- 9:27Speaker 3: guy that's in the National Hockey League full time. I
- 9:29Speaker 3: think that he's one of those guys that man, he's
- 9:32Speaker 3: got that in factor. You watch him play, he's he's
- 9:34Speaker 3: pretty electric.
- 9:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I would. I would agree for sure again pencil
- 9:39Speaker 2: him into the Flyers lineup for sure. To to Cornwall,
- 9:44Speaker 2: and we do have some audio here from OHL commissioner
- 9:48Speaker 2: Brian Crawford. Brandon was on the scene at the Ohl Cup.
- 9:51Speaker 2: It's kind of part of that whole media day where
- 9:54Speaker 2: they announced a few things. They had the draft lottery,
- 9:57Speaker 2: and then of course the the seaway shootout that's going
- 10:00Speaker 2: to take place in Cornwall between Ottawa and Brampton and
- 10:04Speaker 2: Kingston and Brampton kind of made sense that it was
- 10:07Speaker 2: Ottawa and Kingston taking part in these games, whether it
- 10:10Speaker 2: was against each other, whether it was against In this case,
- 10:13Speaker 2: it's going to be against the Brampton Steelheads. So the
- 10:15Speaker 2: OHL back in Cornwall is step of the logo two coming. Yeah,
- 10:21Speaker 2: that's solid, big, that's cool. But this is this is
- 10:24Speaker 2: just step number one to the OHL returning to Cornwall,
- 10:27Speaker 2: and I would assume it'll be the Royals if they
- 10:30Speaker 2: come back. I doubt there's a different name for for
- 10:33Speaker 2: Cornwall Ohl Club. But this is how you get it started.
- 10:36Speaker 2: This is uh again, this is step number one.
- 10:39Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, no, I think I feel like the motion,
- 10:44Speaker 3: the wheels are in motion, no doubt.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Obviously. I said we said this a few weeks.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Prior previous on the show about well you're taking the
- 10:52Speaker 3: lowest attendant team and you put them in Cornwall and
- 10:54Speaker 3: you see how it goes.
- 10:55Speaker 2: And I think that that's what it is.
- 10:56Speaker 3: I I genuinely believe that the league wanted to work
- 11:00Speaker 3: in Cornwall. It's long and I think they also want
- 11:02Speaker 3: to work in Chatham eventually. Chatham's obviously a long term commitment.
- 11:05Speaker 2: No arena.
- 11:06Speaker 3: We know how fast arena movement and construction go here
- 11:10Speaker 3: in Ontario in general, so that's a long term goal.
- 11:15Speaker 3: But I feel like right now, for the short term, Cornwall,
- 11:17Speaker 3: I mean it was it's.
- 11:18Speaker 2: A great spot. It's a hard place to travel too.
- 11:20Speaker 3: But you have Attawa there, you have Kingston there, if
- 11:22Speaker 3: you have the fan base there, you might as well
- 11:24Speaker 3: do it.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Also the market for TV there.
- 11:28Speaker 3: You see how that works radio. I think it works
- 11:30Speaker 3: in Cornwall, I think, and we'll see what happens. But
- 11:33Speaker 3: I feel like, and this is no knock at Brampton
- 11:37Speaker 3: at all, because you know, there's people who work for
- 11:39Speaker 3: the steel heads, and unfortunately the worst part of this
- 11:43Speaker 3: is there's jobs probably on the line. You're I hope
- 11:46Speaker 3: that people are able to trans to transfer to Cornwall,
- 11:49Speaker 3: but hey, that's a tough move nowadays financially in this
- 11:52Speaker 3: era of time here, and I just feel like I
- 11:56Speaker 3: feel bad for the people that are gonna lose out.
- 11:58Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, man, the business
- 12:00Speaker 3: of the o h L, they need this, they need
- 12:03Speaker 3: this to work in Cornwall, and I also believe, I
- 12:06Speaker 3: truly believe this is crazy as this is to say
- 12:08Speaker 3: for people around the Brampton area. I truly believe the
- 12:11Speaker 3: O h L is going to try to make something
- 12:13Speaker 3: work in the g t H in the g UH,
- 12:16Speaker 3: in the g t h L area. I truly believe
- 12:19Speaker 3: in that g t A they're gonna try to make
- 12:21Speaker 3: something work. I just don't think Brampton's worked. It's been
- 12:24Speaker 3: two years now, it's been two times now where it
- 12:27Speaker 3: just hasn't worked. And much like Mississauga never worked. And
- 12:31Speaker 3: I know that the Steelheads weren't moving to Brampton because
- 12:33Speaker 3: of the UH, because of the fan base or because
- 12:37Speaker 3: of fans. I knew that wasn't the case. But at
- 12:39Speaker 3: the end of the day, the OHL, you put your
- 12:42Speaker 3: you put your feel you put the feely out there,
- 12:44Speaker 3: you feel it out.
- 12:45Speaker 2: See how it goes with the fans.
- 12:47Speaker 3: Yeah, I And if it works in Cornwall, well then
- 12:49Speaker 3: boom it's a It's a huge thing financially for the
- 12:52Speaker 3: UH for Cornwall and the OHL to boost that. But then,
- 12:56Speaker 3: like like you mentioned, like if you do if you
- 12:59Speaker 3: do this, I truly believe with the expansion that the
- 13:04Speaker 3: OHL wants the g t A to work. I don't
- 13:06Speaker 3: know if it's in Markham and if it's in Vaughan,
- 13:09Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know, but I truly believe that
- 13:11Speaker 3: somewhere in the g t.
- 13:12Speaker 2: A it has to work.
- 13:14Speaker 3: And I and I believe that the ohl Neat is
- 13:19Speaker 3: invested to that. And it'd be interesting to see if
- 13:21Speaker 3: Commissioner craft It says anything about that here in the
- 13:23Speaker 3: coming weeks, months, years, because it's the biggest area in Ontario.
- 13:30Speaker 3: And I know it's a leaf city. I know that,
- 13:34Speaker 3: but there's gotta be one of these out scary little cities.
- 13:37Speaker 2: It's gotta work. I mean, I didn't think work. And
- 13:41Speaker 2: I mean, yes, Osha we get is part of the
- 13:44Speaker 2: g t A. Yeah, I don't. We don't really count them.
- 13:49Speaker 2: We've we've said that in the past. We don't really
- 13:51Speaker 2: consider them like a yeah, like they're kind of their
- 13:56Speaker 2: own being out there in Durham region. So but yeah,
- 14:00Speaker 2: I mean, who knows what market it'll be in. But
- 14:02Speaker 2: but you're right, I mean, for for Brampton, everyone knows
- 14:07Speaker 2: our thoughts on school day games in March. The fact
- 14:09Speaker 2: that three the writings on the wall, and in my opinion, like,
- 14:14Speaker 2: I think we said it when they first when the
- 14:17Speaker 2: Steelheads first moved to Brampton up the road, that there's
- 14:20Speaker 2: a solid chance this might not last five years. And
- 14:23Speaker 2: I think we're kind of on that path right now. No, absolutely,
- 14:27Speaker 2: he said.
- 14:28Speaker 3: I'm glad we're on the same page with that, because,
- 14:30Speaker 3: like I I.
- 14:32Speaker 2: Feel bad torching.
- 14:34Speaker 3: I'm hoping Brampton fans don't take us as torching them
- 14:37Speaker 3: right now because that's not the case.
- 14:38Speaker 2: So one does it go?
- 14:39Speaker 3: Who are loyal to the Steelheads and a lot of
- 14:41Speaker 3: respect there a lot of respect there.
- 14:43Speaker 2: But let's be honest. Players all talk about.
- 14:47Speaker 3: How like you know, these arenas and they all talk positive,
- 14:50Speaker 3: but I don't think guys get excited to go into
- 14:52Speaker 3: Brampton for a Wednesday School of Day game.
- 14:53Speaker 2: I actually know for a fact players hate it.
- 14:56Speaker 3: And I don't want to I don't want to commit
- 14:59Speaker 3: to too much here and say too much, but I
- 15:01Speaker 3: truly believe these two games in October go well. We
- 15:05Speaker 3: might see two less school Day games in March next year,
- 15:08Speaker 3: because there might be two more home games in March
- 15:11Speaker 3: in Cornwall as well. You might see four games because
- 15:13Speaker 3: of that. Yeah, because like, if it goes well, in
- 15:17Speaker 3: October and then you come back into Brampton. You see
- 15:21Speaker 3: a thousand fans at a game. Obviously you'll see two
- 15:24Speaker 3: thousand online, but eye tests, we know what two thousand
- 15:28Speaker 3: fans are.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I.
- 15:30Speaker 5: Mean I do have a point of order.
- 15:32Speaker 6: Guys, if you don't mind the full press conference with
- 15:36Speaker 6: the Cornwall Mayor and Commissioner Brian Crawford's up on the
- 15:38Speaker 6: arm shor GM Sports Network YouTube channels, you guys can
- 15:40Speaker 6: go and watch it there. But he did mention, uh,
- 15:43Speaker 6: he was asked from a member of the media from Cornwall,
- 15:45Speaker 6: I believe is like should be read into this being
- 15:49Speaker 6: more than just two games, and Commissioner Crawford basically said
- 15:52Speaker 6: you shouldn't read more into it. Brampton was willing to
- 15:55Speaker 6: give up the two games, and he said that they're
- 15:57Speaker 6: still very much to be a part of the league.
- 16:01Speaker 5: So I don't know again, like obviously, oh yeah.
- 16:04Speaker 2: I want it.
- 16:04Speaker 3: They want a GTA team. They want a GTA team
- 16:07Speaker 3: for sure, the OHL, but it's not. It just hasn't
- 16:09Speaker 3: worked in Brampton. If anyone wants and like you say,
- 16:12Speaker 3: if anyone wants to say, hey, it's it's worked and
- 16:16Speaker 3: I'm wrong. East if we're wrong, Like, okay, that's fine,
- 16:19Speaker 3: but has it worked because we go to that arena
- 16:22Speaker 3: three times a year and every time you're there, you
- 16:25Speaker 3: look around, it says two thousand people are there, but
- 16:28Speaker 3: there's clearly not. I and like I say, you see
- 16:31Speaker 3: players Wednesday school day games flat out suck for the players.
- 16:37Speaker 2: In March, it should never be a thing. December.
- 16:39Speaker 3: Okay, I get it, you're coase to the Christmas break.
- 16:41Speaker 3: I understand that, but it should never be a thing.
- 16:44Speaker 3: It should never be a thing. In March, playoff runs
- 16:47Speaker 3: are on the go. I don't and like I say,
- 16:50Speaker 3: it's unfortunate, but it's been two takes now in Brampton,
- 16:55Speaker 3: I don't know how much of a hotspot it is
- 16:57Speaker 3: or fans to go say hey, I'm excited to go
- 16:59Speaker 3: watch game in Brampton, to see a Steelhead's play my
- 17:03Speaker 3: Kitchen or Rangers or something.
- 17:04Speaker 2: I don't think.
- 17:05Speaker 3: I don't think Kitchener fans are excited to go there
- 17:07Speaker 3: when you're leaving the yacht on a Friday night to
- 17:09Speaker 3: go for a Saturday three o'clock game. I don't think
- 17:11Speaker 3: Ranger fans are excited to do that. And that I'm
- 17:14Speaker 3: not saying that. I'm not saying that it's been tough,
- 17:19Speaker 3: but I truly believe that if it if you go
- 17:22Speaker 3: to these games and you see three thousand fans in attendance,
- 17:26Speaker 3: they're going back in March one hundred percent.
- 17:29Speaker 2: It's enough time to teach you games.
- 17:31Speaker 3: Up or one game up in March and get rid
- 17:33Speaker 3: of a school day game and put it to a
- 17:35Speaker 3: Friday night game. And uh, I know the schedules already out,
- 17:38Speaker 3: but I know it's long enough to say, hey, you
- 17:42Speaker 3: gotta you gotta try to work things out here because
- 17:46Speaker 3: I don't want to see fans I don't want to see.
- 17:48Speaker 3: I don't want to see the Woodstock Navy Bets get
- 17:50Speaker 3: more fans at a game than in Brampton. Then, like
- 17:52Speaker 3: I say, I don't want to see that. But it's
- 17:55Speaker 3: been the thing and and I hate to say this,
- 17:58Speaker 3: like I do. I hate to say this. Know something's
- 18:00Speaker 3: gonna come after me about Brampton. People are gonna be
- 18:03Speaker 3: upset about this.
- 18:04Speaker 2: I know that. And I don't want to talk about it.
- 18:06Speaker 2: I know we don't want to talk about it.
- 18:08Speaker 3: Like the end of the day, if you're if there's
- 18:12Speaker 3: nobuts in seats, it's like you say you can only
- 18:14Speaker 3: do the promotion dressed like a seat night for so
- 18:16Speaker 3: long before it's Hey, it hasn't worked, guys, and it sucks.
- 18:20Speaker 3: It sucks for sure, and the g t A has
- 18:23Speaker 3: to work, has to work for the OHL. But it
- 18:26Speaker 3: just hasn't been Branton, hasn't in Mississauga, and it hasn't
- 18:28Speaker 3: in Brampton.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Where the OHL offices are in the g t A right,
- 18:32Speaker 2: and you know that kind of that kind of fuels
- 18:34Speaker 2: why they would why they would want to have another
- 18:36Speaker 2: team again besides Oshua in the in the g t
- 18:40Speaker 2: A so well. See I I I don't. I don't
- 18:44Speaker 2: think we're over overreacting by saying this is gonna lead
- 18:47Speaker 2: to a Cornwall club in the near future. Again, Brian
- 18:52Speaker 2: Crawford knows ten times more about the whole situation than
- 18:54Speaker 2: we do. We don't expect to know more than he does.
- 18:57Speaker 2: But I yeah, I think this is leading to something bigger,
- 19:01Speaker 2: just my personal opinion, and I don't think this is
- 19:04Speaker 2: just a one off to test the market.
- 19:06Speaker 3: I agree one hundred percent because you know what, we
- 19:09Speaker 3: saw this in baseball Tampa Bay Rays last year. They
- 19:12Speaker 3: didn't have their home stadium. Oh Montreal they're gonna play
- 19:16Speaker 3: in two spots this year. Well, they're never going to
- 19:19Speaker 3: Montreal and turns out the traps renovated. If it was
- 19:22Speaker 3: actually serious about staying this, Brampton wouldn't be the team
- 19:26Speaker 3: in this mix.
- 19:26Speaker 2: They wouldn't have been the team. You look around other sports,
- 19:29Speaker 2: they wouldn't have been the team, and it would have
- 19:30Speaker 2: been Ottawa Kingston playing each other twice.
- 19:33Speaker 3: I think, yeah, no, I agree one hundred percent. I
- 19:35Speaker 3: agree one hundred percent, and that's why.
- 19:38Speaker 2: And realistically, realistically, we've seen Kingston's building, their attendance is
- 19:46Speaker 2: fairly similar to Brampton's is. And again Kingston, the OHL
- 19:49Speaker 2: Draft's gonna be there. I hope the buildings at least
- 19:52Speaker 2: full for Night one. The NHL drafts not even full
- 19:55Speaker 2: for Night two, So my expectations for that night are
- 19:58Speaker 2: that it's not going to be sold out for for
- 20:00Speaker 2: Day number two. But I hope it's a successful event.
- 20:03Speaker 2: I want this to be a yearly thing where the
- 20:05Speaker 2: drafts in person. But we've seen what crowds are like
- 20:08Speaker 2: in the regular season. The playoffs I thought were very
- 20:13Speaker 2: very low, especially playing Ottawa for the first time in
- 20:17Speaker 2: forever in the postseason, So yeah, I think you could
- 20:22Speaker 2: have easily gotten away with Ottawa and Kingston playing a couple,
- 20:24Speaker 2: but the fact that it's Brampton, Yeah, exactly. So let's
- 20:29Speaker 2: let's let's get to a it's a couple of minutes
- 20:31Speaker 2: I believe of a of a clip of Brian Crawford
- 20:34Speaker 2: speaking about this. So, so here's what he had to say,
- 20:37Speaker 2: just just a few quotes from him.
- 20:38Speaker 6: A stance on that, and where are we at right
- 20:41Speaker 6: now as of what are the next steps here?
- 20:43Speaker 5: If that is going to be the option.
- 20:45Speaker 7: Yeah, No, the league is very interested in finding opportunities
- 20:49Speaker 7: to grow and expand the league, and we have been,
- 20:51Speaker 7: you know, since since last year. That influx of players
- 20:55Speaker 7: has elevated the overall quality of the league, which ultimately
- 20:59Speaker 7: provides us the oppertunity to you know, respond to that
- 21:02Speaker 7: market demand that we have and grow the league while
- 21:04Speaker 7: maintaining a really high level of play and a product
- 21:07Speaker 7: on the on the ice. So, you know, all of
- 21:09Speaker 7: these things are very early preliminary work, right. It's you know,
- 21:14Speaker 7: these are projects that are measured in years, not months,
- 21:17Speaker 7: and doing the due diligence to explore, you know, whether
- 21:20Speaker 7: it was you know, a meeting with counsel and Chatham Kent.
- 21:22Speaker 7: That is exploratory, so they can understand more about us,
- 21:25Speaker 7: we can understand more about them, explore if that's something
- 21:28Speaker 7: that they might want to do. The reality is there
- 21:31Speaker 7: aren't arenas sitting there waiting for us, you know, to
- 21:34Speaker 7: to move to. You know, these are these are going
- 21:37Speaker 7: to be commitments that communities have to make to build
- 21:40Speaker 7: an arena and that's that's a big capital project for
- 21:43Speaker 7: for any community. And so that's part of what they
- 21:46Speaker 7: have to explore and we have to understand. And then
- 21:48Speaker 7: you know, we have to understand how you know, a
- 21:50Speaker 7: potential community fits into you know, what our league does.
- 21:55Speaker 7: And that's on both sides of the border, both in
- 21:57Speaker 7: Ontario and in the United States. You know, as we
- 22:00Speaker 7: as we seek out these opportunities. So you know, it'll
- 22:03Speaker 7: continue to take time. You know, I definitely hear people think,
- 22:05Speaker 7: oh this is you know, are said they wanted to expand,
- 22:07Speaker 7: and they're interesting expanding. It takes time, right, They're big projects,
- 22:11Speaker 7: and you know, we're going to go about it properly
- 22:13Speaker 7: and do our due diligence in the proper way to
- 22:15Speaker 7: make sure that what we do is additive to our
- 22:17Speaker 7: league to make it bigger and stronger and better than
- 22:19Speaker 7: it is today. So we're excited about the opportunities that
- 22:23Speaker 7: we're exploring currently and that we've got kind of in
- 22:26Speaker 7: front of us.
- 22:26Speaker 2: That was Brian Crawford talking about expansion cities interested particular
- 22:33Speaker 2: Chatham Cornwall obviously playing playing the games there. So yeah,
- 22:38Speaker 2: well see he's right, like, it's not like Brampton is
- 22:41Speaker 2: playing the like I shouldn't say Brampton. It's not like
- 22:44Speaker 2: the OHL is going to be there automatically for twenty
- 22:48Speaker 2: twenty seven, twenty twenty eight. There's stuff that's got to
- 22:52Speaker 2: get built or renovated. It's not an overnight thing. So
- 22:56Speaker 2: so he's absolutely right, we're not if Brampton were to move,
- 22:58Speaker 2: let's say, we're not saying they are. If Brampton were
- 23:01Speaker 2: to move, it's probably not until twenty twenty eight. Realistically,
- 23:05Speaker 2: that's two years away or two seasons away. It could
- 23:08Speaker 2: even be three or four. It's not like it's an
- 23:11Speaker 2: overnight thing, like Brian said. So we'll see how the
- 23:14Speaker 2: games go, we'll see what what the reaction is like
- 23:17Speaker 2: locally and within the OHL. So we're we're excited for it.
- 23:21Speaker 2: I mean, don't get me wrong, Like it's not like
- 23:23Speaker 2: we're looking at this as a bad thing by by
- 23:26Speaker 2: any means, let's say, for the Brampton Organization, Ottawa, Kingston,
- 23:30Speaker 2: whatever the case might be. Like this is just to
- 23:32Speaker 2: explore the market once again and see if the interest
- 23:34Speaker 2: is there for sure saying somebody is one hundred percent
- 23:38Speaker 2: moving to Cornwall, but to the draft Lottery and Brampton Steelheads,
- 23:43Speaker 2: we're we're a part of this. But I would say
- 23:47Speaker 2: this is not close to any of our simulators. Of
- 23:52Speaker 2: what a lot of them, most of them one. The
- 23:58Speaker 2: only one audis if you're the only one that's wild.
- 24:03Speaker 2: Number one, Oshawa, number two, Eerie, number three Brampton, and
- 24:07Speaker 2: number four Sarnia. Ohl Cup obviously took place this over
- 24:12Speaker 2: the last week ish or so and the four gms
- 24:17Speaker 2: spoke to the Ontario Hockey League. The four gms that
- 24:20Speaker 2: were a part of the draft lottery spoke to the
- 24:23Speaker 2: Ontario Hockey League and Colin, you've got some you've got
- 24:28Speaker 2: some thoughts on on some of the stuff that was
- 24:31Speaker 2: said by certain people Sarnia sting Dylan Sika, general manager speaking,
- 24:39Speaker 2: we know your thoughts on on their situation, but I mean,
- 24:42Speaker 2: don't pick in the taking for for Oshawa, yeah, go ahead,
- 24:48Speaker 2: go ahead, and calling for Sarny.
- 24:50Speaker 3: I mean you picked in the you picked here for
- 24:52Speaker 3: the last three years. You don't even want to be
- 24:54Speaker 3: in this point in the draft order, So I mean
- 24:56Speaker 3: take what you get.
- 24:57Speaker 2: I mean some of.
- 24:58Speaker 3: These teams you're not allowing to raft Claudia and other
- 25:00Speaker 3: sports back to back years.
- 25:02Speaker 2: So you're lucky about that one. If you're this thing.
- 25:05Speaker 2: But Oswall, let's be honest, it's kind of fitting.
- 25:08Speaker 3: I mean John Tavares, last exceptional status player for the Generals,
- 25:13Speaker 3: Cato Rooric, it feels like he's destined to get exceptional status.
- 25:16Speaker 3: It could be sometime this week, it could be any time,
- 25:19Speaker 3: right And I feel it feels a lot similar to
- 25:21Speaker 3: Michael Misa process, where it's like Okay, he's applied, next thing,
- 25:25Speaker 3: you know, he gets it. Like I feel like he's
- 25:27Speaker 3: going to get it. You look at his Ohl Cup,
- 25:29Speaker 3: how good he was in the trial Jenior Canadian teams
- 25:31Speaker 3: losing in the final ten points in seven games. For
- 25:33Speaker 3: Kato Rouric, it's destined to get the exceptional status. He's
- 25:36Speaker 3: deserving of it. He's played that year up Texas born.
- 25:40Speaker 3: It would be the first American born in the OHL
- 25:43Speaker 3: to get to get an exceptional status in the OH.
- 25:47Speaker 2: So that's pretty cool for those watching on YouTube. Hey
- 25:50Speaker 2: there you go.
- 25:51Speaker 3: Congratulations on your internet plant.
- 25:55Speaker 2: So they have the Kato Rourica, if we have the
- 25:57Speaker 2: Cato Roorica. Gotta pay the bills. Yeah, but fifteen years old.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Birthdays in January, so it'll be sixteen halfway through the season. Also,
- 26:07Speaker 3: happy birthday to more autsider on the Elite Prospects thing,
- 26:10Speaker 3: how could I not see that? But uh, six one
- 26:14Speaker 3: one seventy four right handed shot. Heck, he's a playmaker.
- 26:18Speaker 3: I mean yeah, it says it on his Elite Prospects.
- 26:20Speaker 3: He's a playmaker and he's good with the hockey runs
- 26:22Speaker 3: her power play there.
- 26:23Speaker 2: Uh.
- 26:23Speaker 3: He got nicked up in the finals against the Honey
- 26:26Speaker 3: Baked in Detroit.
- 26:27Speaker 2: But I thought that he I thought he was great.
- 26:30Speaker 3: I Uh, I thought that throughout the season when you
- 26:33Speaker 3: get to see him play a little bit, and it
- 26:35Speaker 3: sucks the GHL so private, it's hard to see them play,
- 26:38Speaker 3: where like the Alliance is so much easier, not just
- 26:41Speaker 3: because it's easier to get to games, it's just easier
- 26:43Speaker 3: to watch the games online too.
- 26:45Speaker 2: But I just feel like.
- 26:46Speaker 3: With the year he's had, he's well deserving of exceptional status. Uh,
- 26:50Speaker 3: and I think it's any day now it's gonna happen.
- 26:52Speaker 3: It's hard to believe a twenty eleven born player is
- 26:56Speaker 3: going to be in the Entario Hockey League, which is wild.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Twenty ten draft here, twenty ten draft here, that's wild.
- 27:06Speaker 2: Eh, that was the twenty ten Olympics. That's the Crossy
- 27:09Speaker 2: golden goal. It's unbelievable.
- 27:10Speaker 3: The fact that we have twenty like kids that don't
- 27:14Speaker 3: know majority of the kids will not know what the
- 27:15Speaker 3: Crosby goal was is wild.
- 27:17Speaker 2: O'Rourke was not born for that goal that Crosby scored
- 27:22Speaker 2: on Ryan Miller, So can't even ask him about that. Oh,
- 27:26Speaker 2: it's crazy, it's hey crazy.
- 27:29Speaker 3: I didn't want to ask him where he was when
- 27:31Speaker 3: he saw the City Crossy golden goal. I wasn't even
- 27:35Speaker 3: thought of, yeah what, but yeah crazy, I'm not crazy?
- 27:41Speaker 3: Ye crazy to see crazy to see like cat Really
- 27:45Speaker 3: that's wild. But you see the replay on your screen
- 27:48Speaker 3: for those on YouTube, Caboto goal from the Ohl Cup.
- 27:53Speaker 2: He's been great.
- 27:54Speaker 3: He's been great all year and I think it's a
- 27:56Speaker 3: matter of time that he gets exceptional status.
- 27:58Speaker 2: And also Julie really.
- 28:00Speaker 3: Looking back at it, they should have game Matthew Schaeffer
- 28:02Speaker 3: your exceptional status when he went through when you see
- 28:04Speaker 3: how little games he played in the oh, but how
- 28:06Speaker 3: good he was. And I think that that's another thing
- 28:09Speaker 3: that he takes into place where hey, we got this elite,
- 28:12Speaker 3: elite defenseman. Let's get him in our league. Let's get
- 28:14Speaker 3: him in the top development league in the world. Let's
- 28:16Speaker 3: see what happens in Oshwa's a great spot for him.
- 28:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Yeah, I mean, speaking of the Junior Canadians,
- 28:24Speaker 2: it was an unfortunate end to their Ohl Cup run,
- 28:28Speaker 2: falling three to one to Detroit Honey Baked, who becomes
- 28:32Speaker 2: the first American based team to win the Ohl Cup
- 28:38Speaker 2: again three to one score. Honey Baked finished with a
- 28:41Speaker 2: record of seven and oh in the Ohl Cup tournament.
- 28:45Speaker 2: MVP Austin Hall lit the lamp twice for Honey Baked
- 28:50Speaker 2: in the contest that took place at the Madame Athletics Center,
- 28:53Speaker 2: home of the Bold Michigan State champions Whippy Silver Stick
- 29:00Speaker 2: UH Tournament champions back in November. They they kind of
- 29:05Speaker 2: did it all this year and UH and I would say,
- 29:07Speaker 2: looking at the Ohl Cup rankings throughout the entire season.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Little Caesars right at the top pretty well the entire year.
- 29:14Speaker 2: Honey Baked was in the conversation as well. Right, It
- 29:18Speaker 2: just it and people are sort of having their eyes
- 29:23Speaker 2: open to a trend about and Americans are going to
- 29:26Speaker 2: get an exceptional status into the Ontario Hockey League. Little
- 29:29Speaker 2: Caesars had a hell of a year. Honey Bake just
- 29:31Speaker 2: won the Ohl Cup, you know Hall, Yeah, fourteen points
- 29:36Speaker 2: in the in the Ohl Cup was was unbelievable. You know,
- 29:40Speaker 2: people are starting to have the conversation like, oh, not
- 29:44Speaker 2: not necessarily all the Americans are taking over a Canadian league.
- 29:47Speaker 2: I have seen some people say that and it kind
- 29:50Speaker 2: of just shook my head for a second, but it is.
- 29:53Speaker 2: It is a trend. When you know, it's you're into
- 29:56Speaker 2: the into the NC Double A agreements and being able
- 29:59Speaker 2: to go they're from the Canadian Hockey League. And you know,
- 30:03Speaker 2: American free agents becoming such a big thing in the
- 30:06Speaker 2: in the ohl now, right, these guys notice, Yeah, you
- 30:11Speaker 2: have to take notice and may want to revamp your
- 30:13Speaker 2: American scouting staff. I mean, I don't think London needs to.
- 30:17Speaker 2: They've been pretty successful South of the border. You know,
- 30:21Speaker 2: the Bulldogs are starting to dip their toes into that
- 30:23Speaker 2: market a little bit more as we've as we've seen
- 30:26Speaker 2: and heard kitchen especially their team this year, Cooper Dennis
- 30:29Speaker 2: atis an angle part of that next year for for sure.
- 30:33Speaker 2: We know there's a few guys on the way. Not
- 30:34Speaker 2: gonna mention any names. Uh yeah, Kitchener, you're right.
- 30:39Speaker 3: I mean, some of these guys in North Bay's gotten.
- 30:41Speaker 3: I mean, there's a few teams like it's been incredible.
- 30:44Speaker 3: Like if you gotta have that relationship with the NC
- 30:47Speaker 3: Double as if you don't in the States, you're gonna
- 30:50Speaker 3: be last place for a long time. And that's just
- 30:53Speaker 3: the reality of the landscape of the new CHL n
- 30:57Speaker 3: C Double a agreement and I think that you know,
- 31:00Speaker 3: even either way, these teams are always in the Ohl Cup.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Just you know, they had a good group this year.
- 31:04Speaker 3: There's been a lot of hacking players that played in
- 31:06Speaker 3: the Ohl Cup. They never played a game in the
- 31:08Speaker 3: Ohl They played for Honey Bake, played for Little Caesars
- 31:13Speaker 3: copywhere Like, there's a lot of teams that have been around,
- 31:16Speaker 3: and I just think that it's it's time that they
- 31:19Speaker 3: want to that they won the Ohl Cup. I mean
- 31:21Speaker 3: they they were hack of a team all year. Those
- 31:23Speaker 3: two teams Little Caesars and Honey Bag they battled all year.
- 31:26Speaker 3: I mean you mentioned Austin Hall, who's an incredible player there,
- 31:31Speaker 3: Max Lapping, big player on the back end. Like they
- 31:34Speaker 3: got some players there and I think then it was
- 31:36Speaker 3: a matter of time that they had the success they deserved.
- 31:38Speaker 3: I mean, there were a well respected program here on
- 31:41Speaker 3: the Atario side. That's what makes a London The London
- 31:44Speaker 3: Junior Night Tournament at the beginning of the year so
- 31:46Speaker 3: fun to watch October because then you see these kids
- 31:48Speaker 3: come onto the scene. It's like oh wow, and then
- 31:50Speaker 3: a silver stick and they go out, so on and so forth.
- 31:54Speaker 3: Did you get into the Ohl Cup at the end
- 31:56Speaker 3: of the year and it's like holy, like it's really
- 31:59Speaker 3: it was really cool to see. And honestly, you know,
- 32:01Speaker 3: like every year you see the GTHL teams in the
- 32:04Speaker 3: final anyway, so it's nice to see that Honey the
- 32:07Speaker 3: Honey Bake versus GTHL, the two most premiere team teams
- 32:12Speaker 3: throughout the whole season for the most part, meeting the finals,
- 32:15Speaker 3: which is really cool and you just gotta get hot
- 32:17Speaker 3: and win the tournament.
- 32:18Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, it was right on to see. Yeah,
- 32:23Speaker 2: all right, that that pretty well wraps up. I would
- 32:25Speaker 2: say all the headlines that we've got and this might
- 32:28Speaker 2: be one of the more fun segments we've done all
- 32:30Speaker 2: season long coming up because it's it's vacation time for

- 36:44Speaker 2: all that matters, all that matters, all right. So Kingston Saganaw,
- 36:50Speaker 2: it was a four game sweep for the Kitchener Rangers
- 36:52Speaker 2: over the Saganaw Spirit Game one, six', Four game two for,
- 36:57Speaker 2: nothing and then it was a four to three win
- 36:59Speaker 2: in game game number three and a five to one
- 37:01Speaker 2: win in game number. Four, Uh, colin we'll. Start we'll
- 37:06Speaker 2: start with you with the The Saganaw, spirits and again
- 37:09Speaker 2: we're gonna touch on The Kitchener. Rangers they've got a
- 37:11Speaker 2: second round series coming. Up we're gonna discuss. That that
- 37:14Speaker 2: schedule did come out On, monday so we'll we'll have
- 37:17Speaker 2: an idea when they're gonna play all those. Games sounds
- 37:19Speaker 2: like sou didn't want to play back to. Back whether
- 37:22Speaker 2: that's true or, NOT i am not. Sure but for
- 37:25Speaker 2: The Saga. Spirit once, uh once they're back from Can.
- 37:29Speaker 2: Kuhn what uh what do they gotta? Do, yeah so
- 37:33Speaker 2: first off they're in Can.
- 37:34Speaker 3: Kun it's a it's a nice time right, now but
- 37:37Speaker 3: not great for The Saganaw.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Spirit and, honestly they were good in the first.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Round there's two series to me THAT i didn't think
- 37:43Speaker 3: this is hilarious with the background it unliel SO i,
- 37:47Speaker 3: think to, me there's two series that were so close
- 37:51Speaker 3: it didn't feel like. Sweeps it Was Branford sudbury In
- 37:54Speaker 3: kitchen Or Saganaw AND i, thought, honestly The Saganaw spirit.
- 37:57Speaker 2: Played good enough to win game. One they had that
- 38:00Speaker 2: game for the. Pickings it was right.
- 38:02Speaker 3: There obviously The rangers are a couple of goals, late tie the,
- 38:04Speaker 3: game later on win the, game then the empty net.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Goal it felt like it was destined for overtime even
- 38:10Speaker 3: but wasn't the.
- 38:11Speaker 2: Case.
- 38:12Speaker 3: Sagana try to keep that core. Together try to keep
- 38:15Speaker 3: that core. TOGETHER a drafted clapoff could be very. INTERESTING
- 38:19Speaker 3: i mean that you talk about going from hey eighth,
- 38:21Speaker 3: place possibly do hey who wins that division next? YEAR
- 38:25Speaker 3: i Mean sarnya they've hosted Can kun for the last three.
- 38:29Speaker 3: Years so It's sarnia gonna make that step. UP i don't,
- 38:32Speaker 3: know But saganaw has that, opportunity AND i believe that
- 38:37Speaker 3: they're a team that if you can keep that group,
- 38:39Speaker 3: together you have a good young. GOALTENDER i thought you
- 38:42Speaker 3: battled in this. Series you gave The rangers all you,
- 38:45Speaker 3: had AND i thought The rangers had to earn the
- 38:47Speaker 3: four game. Sweep and in my, OPINION i think if
- 38:50Speaker 3: you can keep that core, together you got a bright
- 38:52Speaker 3: break future ahead in a quick. Turnaround to be, honest
- 38:55Speaker 3: when you look At, regina who hasn't been relevant since twenty,
- 38:58Speaker 3: eighteen they Had Connor gard Like SAGAN i just hosted
- 39:01Speaker 3: The Men cup last go. Around in the fact THAT
- 39:03Speaker 3: i have them finishing in the top four or five
- 39:05Speaker 3: and next year's in The Western conference next year, already
- 39:09Speaker 3: and LOGISTICALLY i think that's possible for. THEM i think
- 39:11Speaker 3: that they have every opportunity on paper they could do,
- 39:14Speaker 3: that AND i think that how fast they turned it. Around,
- 39:18Speaker 3: ABSOLUTELY i believe The sagan spirit in a great spot.

- 45:40Speaker 2: I don't know what to do with my. Hands it's.
- 45:42Speaker 6: Weird might need to stop playing the music for this
- 45:47Speaker 6: one Because colin's gonna get.
- 45:48Speaker 2: Fired oh, yeah, yeah, relax he, kidding this is this
- 45:52Speaker 2: is gonna get ugly my vacation. Here next up was
- 45:57Speaker 2: the three versus six. Matchup it was like it was
- 46:00Speaker 2: one versus. Sixteen it was. One i've got a question
- 46:09Speaker 2: for both of, you AND i don't know if you
- 46:11Speaker 2: can actually answer, this but let let's go over the.
- 46:15Speaker 2: Numbers First game, One flint wins eight. One game Two
- 46:18Speaker 2: flint wins eleven to. One game Three flint wins ten to.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Nothing game Four flint wins six to. One in the
- 46:25Speaker 2: closest game of the. SERIES i can't BELIEVE i just
- 46:27Speaker 2: had to say that this was an all timer in
- 46:33Speaker 2: the right way and the wrong. Way flint scored thirty
- 46:37Speaker 2: five goals in four, games right. Way Owen sound attack
- 46:42Speaker 2: allowing thirty five goals in a four game, Series, well
- 46:45Speaker 2: that's the wrong side of. History And i'll ask this
- 46:49Speaker 2: question Before colin you go off on a little bit
- 46:52Speaker 2: of a rant. Here it's all good For, owen's For Owens,
- 46:57Speaker 2: sound and and this might sound really stupid because because
- 47:00Speaker 2: they got gait for two games, barely The Bay shore
- 47:05Speaker 2: was not full by any. Means Would Owen sound have
- 47:11Speaker 2: been better in the draft lottery than making the playoffs
- 47:15Speaker 2: in this. Scenario, brandon we'll start with. YOU i don't
- 47:18Speaker 2: even know if you can answer this, question but to,
- 47:20Speaker 2: Me i'd rather be in the draft lottery than. This
- 47:23Speaker 2: like this was just like half my off bad, dude
- 47:27Speaker 2: it's really.
- 47:28Speaker 6: BAD i don't think they expected to be this bad
- 47:30Speaker 6: as the sixth, seed Like colin, said like when we
- 47:32Speaker 6: were chatting about it earlier in the, series like they
- 47:35Speaker 6: didn't look like a six seed to, me you know
- 47:37Speaker 6: WHAT i, Mean like this didn't this looked like if
- 47:39Speaker 6: this was a eight, MATCHUP i would have MAYBE i
- 47:42Speaker 6: wouldn't have accepted, it BUT i have understood it a
- 47:44Speaker 6: little bit.
- 47:45Speaker 5: Better but for this to be a sixth seed.
- 47:46Speaker 6: To perform this, BADLY i Know Owen sound had a
- 47:49Speaker 6: bad second, half and you, know Trading, Way george and
- 47:52Speaker 6: Ben kowski and things in that room weren't, good which
- 47:53Speaker 6: we'll hear or watch In Greg cowen's article here. Shortly
- 47:56Speaker 6: BUT i don't. Know to, me this was one of
- 47:59Speaker 6: the worst six verse three matchups you could have ever.
- 48:00Speaker 6: Imagined so if that, was if you're asking me yes
- 48:03Speaker 6: or no, answer, YES i would rather been in the
- 48:04Speaker 6: draft ler than be a sixth seed and get bounced this.
- 48:06Speaker 5: Bad.
- 48:07Speaker 2: Yeah let let's let's put the article quotes up now
- 48:10Speaker 2: if we're able, to and Then, colin you're gonna have
- 48:12Speaker 2: the floor for probably five. Minutes it's all. Good, Hey,
- 48:16Speaker 2: Hey i'm at the. Buffet, hey you know what's going
- 48:19Speaker 2: on right?
- 48:19Speaker 3: Now we're at the, buffet and then we gotta go
- 48:21Speaker 3: to the, bar get another, drink and then and then
- 48:24Speaker 3: we gotta go watch the evening.
- 48:25Speaker 2: Fireworks uh so so, Again Greg cowen did a great
- 48:29Speaker 2: job as always throughout the entire, season covering the covering
- 48:32Speaker 2: the Own sound, attack the good and the bad and
- 48:35Speaker 2: the ugly for for The owen sound. Attack so, yeah
- 48:41Speaker 2: it just it was not. Good and if you're watching
- 48:43Speaker 2: us on YouTube you can you can see the. Clip you,
- 48:47Speaker 2: know we we saw some fire De gray, jerseys uh
- 48:50Speaker 2: in the. Crowd like we, said the section the arena
- 48:54Speaker 2: was not full by by any means at the at
- 48:57Speaker 2: The Bay. Shore just really really. Unfortunate, Yeah, colin what
- 49:04Speaker 2: what do you make of all of? This the the,
- 49:06Speaker 2: article the, uh you, know the front, office the comment
- 49:12Speaker 2: about players quitting on each other on the, franchise like
- 49:18Speaker 2: the tweet some kids who? Quit who's in? Charge you,
- 49:22Speaker 2: know essentially signaling an? Overhaul you, KNOW i really believe
- 49:27Speaker 2: that we had some kids who quit on their. Teammates
- 49:29Speaker 2: was a full. Quote, there go, Ahead, colin they, quit they.
- 49:35Speaker 3: Quit and who's in charge of the? Roster who's in
- 49:38Speaker 3: charge of the? Roster the general. MANAGER i truly believe
- 49:41Speaker 3: this Isn't Scott. RAY i believe it starts from above
- 49:45Speaker 3: and it is hello Mister dale De, gray and welcome
- 49:49Speaker 3: to Can. Coon because you know, what this is one
- 49:54Speaker 3: hundred percent without a doubt On dale De. Gray every
- 49:57Speaker 3: fan knows, it everybody knows around The ohl and it's
- 50:01Speaker 3: similar to WHEN i went off On sarnia a few weeks,
- 50:03Speaker 3: back and they're in Can kun. Too they've been there
- 50:06Speaker 3: for three years in a. ROW i truly, BELIEVE i
- 50:09Speaker 3: truly believe that The Owen sound. Attack when you look
- 50:12Speaker 3: back at thirty years, here not just this, year you
- 50:15Speaker 3: could see this.
- 50:16Speaker 2: Coming how many?
- 50:17Speaker 3: Years how many years are we gonna, Go, hey we
- 50:19Speaker 3: just gotta get thirty?
- 50:20Speaker 2: Wins and who cares what happens in the.
- 50:22Speaker 3: Playoffs they haven't saw the second round the same amount
- 50:26Speaker 3: of time as the least Of Sauce Stanley. Cups, basically,
- 50:28Speaker 3: yeah that's a little, rude you, know but they haven't
- 50:31Speaker 3: saw a second round since twenty.
- 50:33Speaker 2: Eighteen, like.
- 50:36Speaker 3: That's That's sarnia, bad as we talk about with making the.
- 50:40Speaker 2: Playoffs and it's a franchise that was used to winning
- 50:44Speaker 2: thirty games every single, year one. Hundred pencil it in
- 50:47Speaker 2: on Your bengo. Card, yep that's gonna, Happen Owen. Sound
- 50:49Speaker 2: thirty wins. Easy and it goes back to a couple
- 50:54Speaker 2: of weeks ago or a month or two.
- 50:55Speaker 3: Ago, NOW i had that rant About Owen sound about
- 50:57Speaker 3: how they had to go out and do a team.
- 50:58Speaker 2: Thing they had to go do so something.
- 51:00Speaker 3: Together go out and do, Something go To, chucks go
- 51:03Speaker 3: get a, dinner go get half, off halfs with the,
- 51:05Speaker 3: guys do something, together and you see it on your

- 51:42Speaker 3: that which he did request a, trade WHICH i will
- 51:44Speaker 3: say now because, hey they're.
- 51:46Speaker 2: In Can coon and you.
- 51:48Speaker 3: Know like he did require a Can coon counter big time.
- 51:52Speaker 3: Drinking he passed out on the beach, here but they
- 51:57Speaker 3: come get me in the. Morning BUT i feel like
- 52:00Speaker 3: every single time we talked about The Owen sound attack
- 52:03Speaker 3: at the end of the, year it's the exact same
- 52:06Speaker 3: crap every.
- 52:07Speaker 2: Year every.
- 52:08Speaker 3: Year you remember when we, thought, hey it's gonna Be
- 52:10Speaker 3: joey hissching to take.
- 52:11Speaker 2: Over how did that?
- 52:13Speaker 3: Go? Right attack legend For Owen, sound he for That
- 52:17Speaker 3: Owen sound. Program has there been anybody that brought more
- 52:20Speaker 3: on and off the?
- 52:20Speaker 2: Ice how did that? Work that never?
- 52:23Speaker 3: Worked it was never a thing one hundred percent when
- 52:27Speaker 3: you look at The Owen sound, attack this falls On
- 52:29Speaker 3: dale De gray two seasons.
- 52:31Speaker 2: Ago oh the deadlines too? Much who made the first
- 52:34Speaker 2: trade of the? Deadline who set the? Market dale De?
- 52:37Speaker 2: Gray when one hundred, percent this is not On Scott.
- 52:41Speaker 3: Ray this is on MISTER Gm dale De gray the
- 52:46Speaker 3: biggest hot seat without. Question after looking at the, postseason
- 52:50Speaker 3: it is the biggest hot seat by, far by.
- 52:53Speaker 2: Far who's gonna go? There who's gonna go?
- 52:55Speaker 3: There in the, draft it's very interesting you see articles
- 52:58Speaker 3: about there's only maybe two players they've had troubles with
- 53:01Speaker 3: that this roster blew. Up they knew this was kind
- 53:06Speaker 3: of a rental team with them with what they had next.
- 53:09Speaker 3: YEAR i, MEAN i don't even know what The Owen
- 53:11Speaker 3: Sound attack are going to be next year other than twentieth.
- 53:13Speaker 3: Rancs AND i know this is gonna get clipped, somewhere
- 53:16Speaker 3: but you can't tell me after you see that. Year
- 53:20Speaker 3: you see where this is. Going we saw it With,
- 53:23Speaker 3: Sarnia we've saw it with another team in Can kun
- 53:26Speaker 3: and The Nagar Rece. Dogs how are you? Doing welcome
- 53:29Speaker 3: to the beach, fellas you, know like we.
- 53:34Speaker 2: You can see it.
- 53:34Speaker 3: Coming AND i see the writing on the wall right
- 53:37Speaker 3: now With Owen sound and they need a Lot and
- 53:40Speaker 3: my number one expectation is for them to get a
- 53:42Speaker 3: general manager because you look at the roster turnover that they've.
- 53:46Speaker 3: Had you look at the players leaving so. Soon how
- 53:49Speaker 3: Does Sudbury? Wolves how do The Sudbury walls were last?
- 53:52Speaker 3: Year we're last? Year we both said reach that they
- 53:55Speaker 3: had the worst deadline you could ever imagine.
- 53:58Speaker 2: Time, yeah, yeah and now we're talking a year. Later,
- 54:01Speaker 2: hell hey The wolves like redeeming? Themselves yeah like, yeah
- 54:07Speaker 2: just a year.
- 54:08Speaker 3: Later Ye Owen sound has no track. Record their track
- 54:12Speaker 3: record is just to get thirty wins and whatever happens,
- 54:15Speaker 3: happens and that can only be consistent for so long, Before,
- 54:20Speaker 3: hey you're off the. Pot you see The rangers have
- 54:22Speaker 3: in the. Year every kitchener fand knows at the beginning
- 54:25Speaker 3: of the, Year, hey he's still gonna.
- 54:27Speaker 2: Watch For, london, right, like, Yeah gulf next, Year london next.
- 54:32Speaker 2: Year what are we doing?
- 54:34Speaker 3: Here BUT i truly believe That dale De gray has
- 54:38Speaker 3: to take some accountability. Here you can't go on in
- 54:40Speaker 3: your headline and, say, hey they. Quit you can't go
- 54:42Speaker 3: on and say stuff like, that because who made the.
- 54:45Speaker 3: Roster and this has been a pattern that's happened for
- 54:47Speaker 3: a long.
- 54:47Speaker 2: Time and.
- 54:50Speaker 3: You look at the amount of coaches they've been through
- 54:53Speaker 3: over those last couple of. Years this is this is
- 54:57Speaker 3: a tough. One people And Owen sound are. UPSET i truly.
- 55:02Speaker 3: BELIEVE i truly believe that the writing's on the wall
- 55:05Speaker 3: here and ownership In Owen. SOUND i, mean you gotta
- 55:09Speaker 3: have something, here you gotta do something. Here and, hey
- 55:12Speaker 3: AND i saw the comment about how fans will pass
- 55:14Speaker 3: by and won't.
- 55:14Speaker 2: Talk, Well, hey if you want to come on the,
- 55:15Speaker 2: podcast we'll talk about.

- 55:36Speaker 3: Expensive when you set the? Market you know?
- 55:39Speaker 2: That come back a couple of years.
- 55:40Speaker 3: Ago this pattern's happened for a long. Time in The
- 55:42Speaker 3: Owen Sound attack had one of the worst playoff matches
- 55:47Speaker 3: MATCHUPS i have ever saw in my.
- 55:49Speaker 2: Life they look like. That they looked like the twenty
- 55:53Speaker 2: first team in the league playing the first ranked.
- 55:55Speaker 3: Team it looked like WHAT i would imagine AN oahl
- 55:58Speaker 3: team playing AN nhl team in a. Series like it
- 56:02Speaker 3: was an, Embarrassment AND i think that this is something
- 56:05Speaker 3: that it's got to be answered. For you break a
- 56:08Speaker 3: horrible record which was previously minus, nineteen like your out
- 56:14Speaker 3: of the, water you're minus thirty.
- 56:16Speaker 2: Two, yeah it was like it was pretty, Bad, Brandon,
- 56:20Speaker 2: sorry go, Ahead, COLIN i don't. Sorry last.
- 56:22Speaker 3: THING i don't even know what to think About, flint
- 56:24Speaker 3: If flint was that good or If Owen sound was that,
- 56:26Speaker 3: bad BECAUSE i Think Owen sound was that bad right, Now.
- 56:29Speaker 2: YEAH i don't. KNOW i, agree that's a really good
- 56:32Speaker 2: team taking advantage of A i shouldn't say a really bad,
- 56:36Speaker 2: team but, yeah he had no. YEAR a team that's
- 56:40Speaker 2: focused does not get out scored thirty five to. THREE
- 56:44Speaker 2: a team that is not ready to go to the
- 56:46Speaker 2: beach does not get outscored thirty five to. Three which
- 56:49Speaker 2: leads me to my next. Request, brandon play the sound
- 56:57Speaker 2: you ain't.
- 56:57Speaker 1: Make baby.
- 57:00Speaker 5: Coon owen sound showed out to.

- 57:19Speaker 3: to know and sound all.
- 57:21Speaker 2: Right the final matchup in The Western conference featured The
- 57:24Speaker 2: Winsor spitfires and the Gwelf. STORM a clean sweep for
- 57:28Speaker 2: The spitfires and this one they win game one for,
- 57:31Speaker 2: nothing they win game two for, one they head on
- 57:33Speaker 2: the road to The sleem And, center win two to
- 57:35Speaker 2: one in game, three and then they just annihilate the
- 57:40Speaker 2: Gwelf storm in game number. Four it's put an exclamation
- 57:44Speaker 2: point on this. Series eleven to three was the final
- 57:48Speaker 2: at the sleem And. Center, again we knew gwelf was
- 57:52Speaker 2: going for next. Year it was just a matter, of,
- 57:54Speaker 2: hey let's get in the. Playoffs let's get our seventeen year,
- 57:56Speaker 2: olds you, know our sixteen year old some some playoffics
- 58:00Speaker 2: appearance if they haven't experienced it, before you, know kind
- 58:03Speaker 2: of figure out who are nineteen year olds are going
- 58:05Speaker 2: to be next, Year see if we can get some
- 58:07Speaker 2: of those guys at the deadline this, year which they
- 58:11Speaker 2: did accomplish that at least a little. Bit they got.
- 58:15Speaker 2: Younger of, course it's all about next year for The
- 58:18Speaker 2: Memorial cup and for The. Spitfires they make quick work OF.
- 58:22Speaker 2: Gwelf AND i think This spitfires had to with the
- 58:24Speaker 2: dog fight that they were in down the stretch leading
- 58:27Speaker 2: to this division. Title, yeah you Know.
- 58:31Speaker 3: Gwelf gwelf's one of those teams were obviously knew it
- 58:34Speaker 3: was next, year but.
- 58:37Speaker 2: You checked, out you checked, in you checked out throughout the.
- 58:40Speaker 3: Series in the four game, series Obviously game, three like you,
- 58:43Speaker 3: mentioned the closest to one. SCORE i, Mean gwelf's next
- 58:46Speaker 3: year would have been nice to steal a game, though you,
- 58:48Speaker 3: know like that last showing isn't how you want to go.
- 58:50Speaker 3: Out that's a long summer like. That but, hey that's
- 58:53Speaker 3: why you come and get the nice weather and game.
- 58:55Speaker 2: Dude and you, KNOW i think that eleven three you
- 58:59Speaker 2: check it like you know it.
- 59:01Speaker 3: Happens but it would have been nicer than to be
- 59:03Speaker 3: able to steal a game to be more positive going
- 59:06Speaker 3: in the next. Season you don't want to go out
- 59:07Speaker 3: on a sweet just when your host of the Mem
- 59:08Speaker 3: cup next. Year just then obviously you see those, questions
- 59:11Speaker 3: you see what you see What colonna, Did like that's.
- 59:14Speaker 2: Tough, Yeah, brandon play.
- 59:18Speaker 8: It i'm gonna ta you ain't Make concombe.
- 59:22Speaker 2: Baby tastes really good on the. Beach oh, yeah love
- 59:31Speaker 2: it all, Right we're gonna flip to The Eastern conference.
- 59:35Speaker 2: Now the one eight matchup featured The Branford bulldogs And Sudbury.
- 59:38Speaker 2: Wolves it was again another four game sweep uh in the,
- 59:42Speaker 2: postseason but at times it. Didn't it felt way closer
- 59:46Speaker 2: than a lot of people thought it would, be and
- 59:48Speaker 2: that's credit to The Sudbury. Wolves. Uh it started six
- 59:51Speaker 2: to two In game One brantford. Wins they win four
- 59:53Speaker 2: to In game. Two it was a six or five
- 59:56Speaker 2: overtime Winning game, three which it looked Like sudbury was
- 59:59Speaker 2: destined to at least force A game five with a
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: victory in this, one but The bulldogs came, back took the,
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: lead gave it up in the third period, late but
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: it Was merrik Van acker from the Del, High ontario
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: getting the overtime winner two secure A game three victory
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: and then a two to one win In game four
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: and game That sudbury led one. Nothing The bulldogs scored
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: two unanswered to to take that. One but LIKE i,
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: said a four game sweep that was way closer than
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: it looks for nothing on The ohl.
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: Website, yeah you, know this series was a tight. Series
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: route they have the last two games two to. One
- 1:00:37Speaker 3: BUT i thought that was the best, series the best
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: game in the series for The, bulldogs that two to one.
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: GAME i thought that was the best game The bulldogs
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: played all. Series six to. Five game, Three wolve should
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: have won that.
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: Game this is the closest suite you can have similar and,
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: Honestly ottawa scoring was second slapped Against kingston.
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: Like that In game.
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: Four, yeah that series could went either way In, sudbury
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: AND i believe That, sudbury, honestly they played good enough
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: to win at least two games in the. Series that's
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: how good The wolves. Were they have a great future
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: there AND i last YEAR i would have, said oh
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: it looks, bleak but they turn things. Around they go

- 1:02:54Speaker 5: North bay.
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: Reaction oh, man, yeah this wasn't this is this was.
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: Awesome whoever shot that was a. GENIUS i we gotta
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: figure out who did. That that was. Unreal the, angle
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: the follow of the, celebration like the crowd, noise the
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: pop when the puck win in the. Net like had
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: to play that because that Was i've watched that like
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: twenty times since that's since that's. Happened it was so
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: much fun to, watch so so shout out, whoever uh
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: whoever shot that that. Was that was. Cool but this
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: series sort of saved the first round or tried to
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: save the first round of the of THE ohl. Playoffs,
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: again very lopsided for for the majority of each. Matchup
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: but but this one, realistically if McIver doesn't lose his
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: cool in game number, three this is probably a five
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: game series And North bay probably Wins game five and that's.
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: It But North bay winning one nothing on the road
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: in game, one falling in overtime in game two four to.
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: Three it's In peterborough again winning in. Overtime this is
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: the GAME i was referencing mcgiver getting the five in
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: a game for punching the opponent for some reason or
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: knocking the opponent in the. Face peterborough scores on that power.
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Play they win two to one for. Nothing North bay
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: Wins game, four they Win game five three to, one
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: and then they Take game six in double overtime by
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: a score of five to. FOUR i stopped working During
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: game number. SIX i saw that it was in. Overtime i'm,
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: like you know what this has been the most entertaining
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: series by far in The Ontario Hockey league. Playoffs SO
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: i legit stopped working for a solid hour and a
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: half just SO i could watch every single second of
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: overtime in the. Office and my coworkers joined, us especially
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: when it joined me when it got to double. Overtime you're,
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: like all, right we'll break. Time we're gonna watch hockey.
- 1:05:12Speaker 2: Instead and, uh And North bay was able to pull
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: out the, victory and in an unreal, Fashion nevotney unfortunately
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: losing the stick allows the guy to get free and
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: send the puck out to the. Circle and well you
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: saw that. Shot, uh it was. Filthy Colin moore thoughts
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: on this. One and and we know you have a
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: few points about The Peterborough pets.
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: Here, yeah you, KNOW i Thought Adam vaughtane you could
- 1:05:34Speaker 3: have a better playoff. Series you mentionally misses a stick
- 1:05:36Speaker 3: there in OT i thought it his playoff series could
- 1:05:39Speaker 3: have been a little. BETTER i don't, WANNA i don't
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: wanna put too much. Pressure it's a team, game for.
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: Sure you look back to the, deadline why are you?
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: Buying?
- 1:05:50Speaker 3: Honestly honestly throughout the, year AND i Think i've even
- 1:05:53Speaker 3: said it on the. Record North i've always me personally
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: If i've always Had North bay Over peterborough in any.
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: MATCHUP i Thought North bay was gonna pass him at one,
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: point like the beginning of the, YEAR i Had North
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: bay And barry as my two teams in that. DIVISION
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: i think That North bay In, PETERBOROUGH i think they're
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: totally different.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: TEAMS i Thought North bay last. Year you look at
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: the guys like.
- 1:06:13Speaker 3: Precision North bay is one of those teams that are
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: starting to peak at the right. Time they're playing their
- 1:06:18Speaker 3: best hockey when you want. To And Ryan ullahanna said
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: that all year and The peterborough peats The peterborough Pezz
- 1:06:23Speaker 3: if it wasn't For Eastern, rye this is a four game,
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: SWEEP i mean The North bay, battalion we're really getting the.
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: SERIES i know there were some low scoring games with
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: all the low scoring games were won By, peterborough, Right
- 1:06:35Speaker 3: SO i just think that you look at What Eastern
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: rye did and net for. Them That's Michael simpson two point.
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: ZERO i really enjoy watching him, play AND i think
- 1:06:46Speaker 3: that if it wasn't For, RYE i, mean this is
- 1:06:48Speaker 3: probably a.
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: Sweep he was so good throughout the whole. Series he
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: was so good in that first.
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: Game you, think back, man that one hurts the most
- 1:06:55Speaker 3: one nothing you lose in the game winning goal off
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: the post off his back and in like, yeah you know.
- 1:07:01Speaker 3: That maybe that's a difference from going. SEVEN i, mean
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: But michael mccayvrey doesn't punch a guy in the, face is,
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: that you, Know, like like you, mentioned like that's probably five, yeah,
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: yeah done in. Five so bounces happened in the postseason
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: is so. Magnified But Jack listen played an incredible series for.
- 1:07:19Speaker 3: Them he stepped up in The Peterborough Pets.

- 1:19:30Speaker 2: little bit of a different. Animal it's not a Normal
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: London knights. Team The Sue Saint Marie greyhounds loaded up
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: for a playoff. Run he's able to win that series
- 1:19:37Speaker 2: four games to. One with his. Teammates Brady martin fired
- 1:19:41Speaker 2: up over a few comments that were shared throughout that,
- 1:19:45Speaker 2: series which is which you love to see in the.
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: Playoffs so what are you looking for in this one
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: between The rangers And? Greyhounds how good is? That Martin
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: O'Reilly matchup gonna? Be, Yeah i'm excited for.
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: That, YEAH i THINK i look at this, obviously no
- 1:20:00Speaker 3: matter what team The Sue greyhounds, play the other team's,
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: coach except.
- 1:20:05Speaker 2: For maybe a couple others THAT i have a little problems.
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: WITH i don't think are good. Coaches in the.
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: League despite another couple of, Coaches they're gonna get out
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: coach the majority of the games they. PLAY i believe
- 1:20:17Speaker 3: that with their coaching. Staff and then two The. Rangers
- 1:20:21Speaker 3: rangers with you, said the hocus is gonna BE i
- 1:20:23Speaker 3: mean it's toughed out, Coach rangers Managed kitchener in the coaching, department,
- 1:20:26Speaker 3: goaltending sue. Defense that's gonna be tough to see What
- 1:20:31Speaker 3: Chase reed does. Here he's young player in the second, round.
- 1:20:34Speaker 3: RIGHT i think this year the, playoffs no doubt they
- 1:20:36Speaker 3: start In round. Two LIKE i feel like round. Two
- 1:20:39Speaker 3: this is, it, Boy it's, like this is this is the.
- 1:20:41Speaker 2: Playoffs. Now it feels like it's the first week of the.
- 1:20:43Speaker 2: Postseason supposed to be nice weather at the end of the.
- 1:20:45Speaker 3: Week here it feels like the. Playoffs SO i feel
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: like this series the defensive zone might favor The rangers
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: by a slight. Advantage, OFFENSIVELY i think favorites The rangers
- 1:20:57Speaker 3: in the. Series i'm still, though And Josh brown's gonna
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: have it on me for this. One your fans will
- 1:21:05Speaker 3: give it to me because all Year i've said The,
- 1:21:07Speaker 3: rangers and this feels Like monday night, Football like when
- 1:21:10Speaker 3: you're picking the. Team it feels like college game day
- 1:21:12Speaker 3: when you're picking the teams in all. YEAR i Know
- 1:21:15Speaker 3: i've said The, rangers The, rangers The, rangers AND i
- 1:21:18Speaker 3: think The rangers are good AND i think The rangers
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: will go to THE Ohl, finals but it's not gonna
- 1:21:24Speaker 3: be this. Year Sue greyhounds in six. Games If kitchener
- 1:21:27Speaker 3: wins the, series they're gonna win. Seven but The GREYHOUNDS
- 1:21:30Speaker 3: i have in six. Games i'm excited to see What
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: Brady martin can. Do i'm excited to see What Chase
- 1:21:34Speaker 3: reid can.
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: Do And Carter.
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: George Carter, GEORGE i feel like The greyhounds and you
- 1:21:39Speaker 3: do what The North play battalion did and get hot
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: at the right. Time The greyhounds are winning this. Series
- 1:21:44Speaker 3: kitchener the inconsistency and if they give up a bad,
- 1:21:46Speaker 3: GOAL i think it's gonna spy roll there in. Net
- 1:21:49Speaker 3: i'm Going Carter.
- 1:21:50Speaker 2: George that would be a home ice game six victory
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: for The Sue greyhounds if they are able to close
- 1:21:57Speaker 2: things out in. SIX i hadn't played that that crowd
- 1:22:01Speaker 2: pop In north bet you imagine that crowd pop And
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: sue Oh man we eh, DUDE i still remember that
- 1:22:09Speaker 2: might have been one of the best playoffs Series i've ever.
- 1:22:11Speaker 2: Seen back in the, Day Jami ckee was still In
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: kitchener coaching. Them, Uh mascren was. There you know that
- 1:22:20Speaker 2: The Sue greyhound teams with with the. NURSE i believe
- 1:22:23Speaker 2: it was a twenty Eighteen yeah it was twenty conference. Finals, yeah,
- 1:22:27Speaker 2: YEAH i just couldn't remember what round it. Was but but,
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: yeah it was The Sue Saint marie T that was
- 1:22:30Speaker 2: just The hamilton in the in The Ohl. Championship but
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: you Know, valalta the goaltender there for For Sue Saint.
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: Marie like that Is sherwood was On kitchener, like oh, hey,
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: YEAH i hate like it. Was oh that was awesome
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: if we get anything like. That, OH i think this
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: is gonna be the best series of the. Playoffs do you, think, Though.
- 1:22:50Speaker 3: Like do you THINK i think there's definitely a chance has.
- 1:22:53Speaker 3: HAPPENED i, Mean, Carter george And. NETMAN i think steals
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: him a game for. Sure OH i think it steals
- 1:22:58Speaker 3: more than.
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: One, YEAH i. AGREE i think it goes, seven say
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: for game seven at the odd for. Sure but, yeah
- 1:23:05Speaker 2: this is going to. DISTANCE i mean TOO i think
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: this is going to be a.
- 1:23:08Speaker 3: SERIES i think you saw a little bit inconsistency With
- 1:23:11Speaker 3: kitchener in that first. ROUND i know they had a
- 1:23:13Speaker 3: four to er sweep and similar To branford in the first. Round,

- 1:26:28Speaker 3: you may see a lopsided.
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: Score if that's the, case, like, yeah we may see.
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: That like the transition, here if You're, flint you gotta
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: be hung you gotta be. Hungry and each round is
- 1:26:37Speaker 3: kind of a new, slate, right it doesn't. Matter it
- 1:26:39Speaker 3: doesn't mean anything about four to zero plus thirty two goal.
- 1:26:43Speaker 3: Deferential it means. Nothing now that round two is. Here
- 1:26:45Speaker 3: that's the best part about the. Postseason every round feels
- 1:26:48Speaker 3: like a new. Season it's a new identity AND i
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: think that this is gonna.
- 1:26:51Speaker 2: Be a fun. One i'm really excited to see this.
- 1:26:53Speaker 2: Series uh to The Eastern Conference round number, two The
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: Brantford bulldogs and The North Bay. Battalion, again it's similar
- 1:27:01Speaker 2: to The Western. Conference it's one versus, Five branford winning in,
- 1:27:05Speaker 2: Four North bay winning in. Six in round number, one
- 1:27:09Speaker 2: this is the one that gets started right off the
- 1:27:10Speaker 2: hop by the Way wednesday, NIGHT Td Civic center gonna
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: be a really fun. Atmosphere back to back seasons In
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: branford that The bulldogs are off To round number, two
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: AND i won't remember what it was like last year
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: against The Oshawa. Generals North bay a little bit of
- 1:27:25Speaker 2: a different animal in this. One you, know this might
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: be an all time coaching matchup between jamickee And Ryan.
- 1:27:30Speaker 2: Ulahan it'll be the third time that these two franchises
- 1:27:34Speaker 2: have met in the. Postseason met last year In round,
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: one and then of course in two thousand and twenty
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: two it was a conference finals matchup that The bulldogs
- 1:27:43Speaker 2: won in four. Games so matchup's a big part of this.
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: One coaches with McKee And ulahn Again North bay riding.
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: High listens the, Man there's no question about. It you,
- 1:27:57Speaker 2: know they went with McGivern game, three hunt someone in the,
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: face so that didn't work. Out they lost that. Game,
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: ultimately listen to the. Guy they win three straight and
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: win that series four games to. Two leanders is clearly
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: the guy In. Brantford. Again another question mark that she
- 1:28:12Speaker 2: had heading into that. Series was it gonna Be? Leanders
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: was it gonna be Eager. OFF i think we're pretty
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: confident to say that It's leanders right. Now what do
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: you what are you looking forward to in this?
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: One it's A bulldogs. Run successful in the. Postseason it's
- 1:28:25Speaker 3: gonna because of their. Goaltending without a, doubt it's gonna
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: because of their. Goaltending in my, OPINION i look at
- 1:28:31Speaker 3: this series AND i see The Branford bulldogs winning in
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: five or. SIX i, Think jack, listen it's gonna be
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: interesting to see what this run. IS i, mean it's
- 1:28:39Speaker 3: not like he's a young. Goaltender it was the third
- 1:28:41Speaker 3: last pick in his draft and multiple seasons. Ago Now,
- 1:28:44Speaker 3: like it's not like he's a, younger young. Goaltender he's
- 1:28:47Speaker 3: a kind of a veteran age goaltender in the intro hockey.
- 1:28:49Speaker 3: GUY i think that we'll, see, though if the bulk
- 1:28:52Speaker 3: of the, work if it can hold up now through
- 1:28:54Speaker 3: a full seven game, series BECAUSE i would imagine he's
- 1:28:56Speaker 3: the guy and we'll. See on the same, point, Though
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: North bay's playing their best hockey at the right. Time
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: in the last two weeks of the season into, now
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: they've played their best hockey and they've been. Unbelievable the
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: fact of the matter is to the last two, games
- 1:29:09Speaker 3: they've outplayed The bulldogs in both those. Contests that's Why
- 1:29:13Speaker 3: i'm gonna say six Games, BRANFORD i think this is
- 1:29:15Speaker 3: gonna be a tight. SERIES i THINK i Think branford's
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: gonna hit adversity in this. SERIES i really, do AND
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: i think that they haven't hit a lot of adversity
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: throughout the Season, branford AND i think that this is
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: kind of The this is kind of the series round
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: two where there's a lot of really good teams to
- 1:29:30Speaker 3: go home in round. Two but this is kind of
- 1:29:33Speaker 3: if you win round, two you propel. Momentum as you
- 1:29:37Speaker 3: Saw ashwal last. Year, right they're down. Too oh the
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: injury happens To Nick lardas, unfortunately but it. Happened and
- 1:29:44Speaker 3: that's WHY i said with The Sue kitcheners, series you
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: gotta stay healthy to have a. Chance The Sue greyhounds
- 1:29:49Speaker 3: have to stay healthy to have a chance Against getch You.
- 1:29:51Speaker 2: Rangers and it's gonna. Happen.
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: Guy, unfortunately you can't play at this level for so
- 1:29:56Speaker 3: long before something bad.
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: Happens and it. Sucks but every year you see, this
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: every year in the, postseason you see. This you don't want,
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: it but it.
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: Happens AND i feel like in this series that The
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: North Bay battalion need everything to go. Right they gotta
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: stay healthy because The bulldogs have the depths if you're
- 1:30:14Speaker 3: looking at the four, lines The bulldogs probably have the
- 1:30:16Speaker 3: depth out of three out of the four.
- 1:30:17Speaker 2: Lines they can outmatch. You if You're North, bay how
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: do you work around?
- 1:30:21Speaker 3: It AND i think that if you can be, consistent
- 1:30:24Speaker 3: WHICH i believe they will With Ryan, olahan this series.
- 1:30:27Speaker 2: Will give The bulldogs a little bit of.
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: ADVERSITY i think The bulldogs overcome the, adversity BUT i
- 1:30:31Speaker 3: truly believe that they're gonna hit adversity in this. Series
- 1:30:33Speaker 3: this is gonna be a series And i'm excited to see.
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: It five on FIVE i think it's gonna be a
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: big part of it for The. Bulldogs we saw how
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: good we can't take penalties against them In game three,
- 1:30:42Speaker 2: specifically but, YEAH i Think i'm looking for the five
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: on five play to be elevated in this round for The.
- 1:30:49Speaker 2: Bulldogs not to say it was horrendous Against Subrey wells
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: by any, means BUT i think as the playoffs go
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: along that five on five scoring becomes way more important
- 1:30:58Speaker 2: because you start to see and less, penalties especially against
- 1:31:02Speaker 2: The North bay. Battalion they do not take a ton of, penalties,
- 1:31:05Speaker 2: no so you have to be able to bury your
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: chances five on, five AND i think The bulldogs we're
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: going to see that elevated here in round number. Two
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: and then lastly Barryon. Oshawa barry In ottawa starts with an,
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: oh this is two three. Again barry won The Central
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: ottawa the number three seed after taking care Of kingston for.
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: Nothing barry Beat niagara four to. One we did See
- 1:31:30Speaker 2: jazzwell starting gate or in round number. One doubt we
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: see him the rest of the. Way here for The
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: Barry colts on their, run it's it's herebics. Net ottawa
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: made it clear that it's righter Feder off's net for.
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: Them this, one much like Windsor, FLINT i think could
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: be one of the more entertaining matchups of this entire.
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: Postseason yeah, no without a, DOUBT i think this series
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: is gonna be.
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: UNBELIEVABLE i think that the one THING i want to
- 1:31:56Speaker 3: watch for this is the discipline Of ottawa versus a team,
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: that like you, say AND i know b c now
- 1:32:02Speaker 3: who's into the.
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: Clouds he's on his way home From, cancune which he
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: did get the popcorn cleaned up for anyone the.
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: POPCORN i hope HE i hope he Keeps Jamie campbell's
- 1:32:13Speaker 3: broom BECAUSE i never want to see that thing.
- 1:32:14Speaker 2: Again, hey, hey you know what quick off topic, thing
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: click off topic.
- 1:32:21Speaker 3: Thing you guys both know that if The blue That
- 1:32:24Speaker 3: ever Since JAMIE i saw that dumb broom That Jamie
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: campbell HAS i have said it's. Over so that's that's
- 1:32:32Speaker 3: my verdict on The Blue. Jays Brandon little can help
- 1:32:35Speaker 3: you TO. Bc he's In. Buffalo yeah there you. Go,
- 1:32:39Speaker 3: YEAH i mean he should be. Picking he can even
- 1:32:44Speaker 3: make the popcorn and it wouldn't hit the. Bucket it
- 1:32:46Speaker 3: would hit the either go right through the hole the
- 1:32:48Speaker 3: bottom of the, bucket or it would miss the bucket
- 1:32:50Speaker 3: because that's the strike.
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: Zone to, him it's like came he's A gps to
- 1:32:54Speaker 2: find it.
- 1:32:55Speaker 3: Nowadays But i'm gonna say in this, Series, OTTAWA i
- 1:33:00Speaker 3: know WHAT i feel, like we know What ottawa is
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: gonna bring to the table more Than, barry because just
- 1:33:05Speaker 3: Because ottawa can frustrate the heck out he in a
- 1:33:08Speaker 3: postseason run with the way they play the game With Dave, cameron.
- 1:33:12Speaker 2: It can be. Frustrating is that gonna self Implode?
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: Barry is it this round that they kind of hey
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: it blows up like, yeah you, know Like barry's a
- 1:33:23Speaker 3: really good. Team they're a high flying. Team but a
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: team Like ottawa who like gravitates to they dismantle those.
- 1:33:30Speaker 3: Teams they they smoke those. Teams Does barry have?
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: ENOUGH i don't. KNOW i Have barry in seven, games
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: but do.
- 1:33:39Speaker 3: THAT i can also See ottawa winning this in six
- 1:33:42Speaker 3: games at. HOME i could see.
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: That, YEAH i it's it's a toss, UP i. Think,
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: YEAH i who Like? Ahison what? LIKE i don't expect
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: him to get, Suspended don't get me, wrong but he
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: likes to play, physical be during play and after the.
- 1:34:03Speaker 2: Whistle we see that from him quite a. Bit, yeah
- 1:34:06Speaker 2: give him a, bounce you. KNOW I i don't know
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: who On oddawa could provide. That could it be McHugh?
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: Potentially but but AGAIN i THINK i, THINK i think
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: it's all up to the. D both teams can, score
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: who can defend? Better and and, yes you can look
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: At agison as you, know to Put barry over the.
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: Top BUT i think it's got to be a collective.
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: Group it's not gonna be one guy that's gonna keep
- 1:34:30Speaker 2: the puck out of the net other than your, GOALTENDER
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: i should. Say BUT i think who can defend, better
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: who can play better in their own? Zone that's who's
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: gonna win this. Series just it's it's that. Close and,
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: yeah well and and AND i think that's part of
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: it because, again Feder off is a seventeen year. Old
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: he is in his first year in the, league not
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: drafted compared To herebic where he's been around the. Block you, know,
- 1:34:57Speaker 2: again you've Got ahchison in front of. You If ottawa
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: can do defend well and play well in their own
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: zone and provide support for sixty minutes around their, goaltender
- 1:35:06Speaker 2: THEN i Like. Ottawa if they can't do. That and
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: so the effects of the seventeen year old in round
- 1:35:11Speaker 2: two against a really really good, opponent well maybe It's
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: barry winning in five or. Six SO i think that's
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: the BIGGEST x. Factors who can play better in front
- 1:35:21Speaker 2: of their. Goaltender And i'd say the spotlight's a little
- 1:35:23Speaker 2: bit more On. Ottawa, yeah, NO i, AGREE i one
- 1:35:26Speaker 2: hundred percent agree with. That that's Why i'm having a
- 1:35:29Speaker 2: hard time in this. SERIES i like they, said like
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: they're two different, Teams they're two different identities to these.
- 1:35:36Speaker 3: Teams, teams there's two many different personalities this, team you See,
- 1:35:40Speaker 3: barry you See, auto totally different. Teams the way they
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: play it makes this matchup so. Intriguing AND i, yeah,
- 1:35:45Speaker 3: like IF i Picked barry in seven Only BEGAETHER i
- 1:35:47Speaker 3: had to pick a, Team BUT i agree with. YOU
- 1:35:49Speaker 3: i Think OTTAWA i, mean man, like if they play
- 1:35:53Speaker 3: that structure and we all know how tough it Is
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: ottawa in a playoff, series notoriously can be tough to
- 1:36:00Speaker 3: play when they're responsible, defensively and you look At Barry.
- 1:36:04Speaker 3: Man you can see that ticking time bomb there With
- 1:36:07Speaker 3: barry coming throughout the whole year where when The Barry colts,
- 1:36:11Speaker 3: lose you see why they Lose ken they can it
- 1:36:15Speaker 3: get through round, Two we'll See it's gonna.
- 1:36:17Speaker 2: Be a heck of a. Series, Yeah i'm looking forward to.
- 1:36:20Speaker 2: It by the, Way Bo, Dwenn Wilmot gardner, two, three
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: four and. Five, Well wilmot And gardner tied for for
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: fourth in points in the in the, playoffs but But
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: dwen eleven, points Will Mott gardner each have. Ten So, gardner,
- 1:36:34Speaker 2: yeah against his former team to end His ohl. Career great.
- 1:36:37Speaker 2: POINT bc didn't even put two and two, Together but
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: that's a big part of. It for. Sure he is
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: uh the crowd that cheered him on quite a. Bit,
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: uh he'll want to quiet them and silence them as
- 1:36:49Speaker 2: soon as. Possible so we'll we'll, see we'll. See it's,
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: uh it's really. Again the playoffs. Start they start right,
- 1:36:56Speaker 2: now you know, again say what you want about round number?
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: One was Was Peterborough North bay? Entertaining for? Sure did
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: other series have their? Moments, yeah Outside flint and own,
- 1:37:05Speaker 2: Sound but but this is where this is where you
- 1:37:09Speaker 2: find out where your contenders are and where your pretenders
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: head off To. Kankun that's where you find. Out SO
- 1:37:17Speaker 2: i had to get one last can coon shot? It
- 1:37:19Speaker 2: but next show here's, Yes, hey it's coming back after
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: round number. Two don't. Worry don't. Worry the shirts will
- 1:37:28Speaker 2: be pulled back out of the. Closet but that does
- 1:37:31Speaker 2: it for for this edition of The ohl and sixty. Podcast,
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: again because we record after every, round it does go
