  Speaker 1: Continue, I'm a Yukon hockey coach. Wow, Alex Green's in
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the house. Come on, Alex is our men's basketball and
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: football engineer. Does a fantastic job. I guess ohyea, It's
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: right him and Bener off the air. Because because of this,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: we got a football coaches show tomorrow. We have let
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: me think, who do we have tomorrow? We have Jackson
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Harper punt returner, and we also have Omar Dia Monday,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: who had himself a monster game on Saturday. He's been
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: great the last ones.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Listen to the coach more on the radio. They had
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: him on ESPN you and it was talking that ball.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: It was great, nice, very good one thing that And
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give Dan props for this on his Hockey
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Yukon Hockey Hub. You mentioned it though, process based win Saturday.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: When I think of that and you saying that, I immediately
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: think of your time with Jerry at BC and your
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: conversations with Gino. Probably the same type of thing that
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: they expect out of their teams as head coaches, and
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: that's what makes them not just good teams, but great
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: teams that have aspirations of winning championships. Would I be
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: kind of going in that right direction.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: With that guy, I would I would say that would
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: be fair. I think that it's funny because it's such
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: a little buzzword, the process. You know, stay with the process.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: And I think basically what we're saying is there's certain
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: things you can't really focus on a result. I mean,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: if you're focused on the result, you're not going to
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: play very well. But if you focus on winning fifty
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: five percenty of face offs, you know, that'll help you win.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: If you focus on winning the net front battles, that'll
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: help you win. If you focus on winning special teams,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: that'll help you win. If you focus on not giving
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: up you know, three or more odd man rushes that'll
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: help you win. If you focus on not taking undisciplined penalties,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: that'll help you win. So though, like those are just
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: some of the things that that we try to focus on,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: and there's others. But when you just put the focus
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: on that and break it down to that, you don't
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: think about the score. So the score doesn't really matter.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: And at the end of the day, when you can achieve,
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: like if we have five objectives, or if we have
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: six objectives or seven objectives, if we can get four
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: out of five or six out of seven, Yeah, that's
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: gonna be. That's gonna give us a great chance to
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: win the hockey game.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: Over the course of your now, you know, three decades
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: and coaching in Hockey East and a lifetime of experience
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: in it, have you come to getting a sense of
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: when those objectives are too many to overwhelm. You don't
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: want to twenty, but we.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Try to narrow it down to five and on.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: So for example, on Friday night, we won the game
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: and we got three points, but we only achieve two
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: and a half of the five objectives, and that's I
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: wasn't very happy, and I told them that on Saturday, Saturday,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: you know, Saturday night, we only got two points because
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: an overtime win's not worth as much as a regular win,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: a regulation win. But we got four out of five,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: and I was much happier because I think if you're
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: continually getting those objectives, you're going to win a lot
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: more than you not. Now, you're going to lose some
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: games when you play really well, but that's okay. It's
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: not sustainable to continue to win hockey games when you're
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: getting two out of five objectives or two and a
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: half out of five objectives or three out of five
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: at home, you should be getting more than that. And
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: if undisciplined penalties is one of your objectives, you should
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: already start with one you shouldn't like. That's one you
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: can control. You should never ever lose that objective, Mike.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: On Friday, when they came back Northeastern, first goal three
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: on one for your team that missed the net, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: then Northeastern comes down to score, you can an odd
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: man rush. I would think you got to at least
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: get the puck on the net to at least try
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to combat a potential odd man rush the other way
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and give yourself a good chance to maybe even get
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: a greasey goal if you're not scoring on the first shot.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you do.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: But the puck was in Jake Richard's hands. So when
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: he has a puck in his hands, if he wants
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: to try to go top shelf, I'm okay with it because.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: He can do it now.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: He missed it, And when you miss it, there's consequences
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: on a three on one because it's going to come
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: back at you the other way four on two pretty much,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: And that's kind of what happened but we did survive it.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: We just missed some assignments after the fact.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: On Friday, you played without Joey Muldowney got back into
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: the lineup on Saturday, obviously had the game winning golden overtime. Yeah,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: what from a health standpoint, without getting too deep into it,
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: you know, how was he ready Saturday but not Friday?
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: What was he still working through to just get better?
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: So he had a concussion.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: So in this concussion protocol, now, it was really an
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: innocuous hit that happened, you know on Friday night when
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: he got knocked out of the game and he actually
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: delivered the hit, but the way he fell on the opponent,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: he hit his head in the way, and it happens.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: And I'm all for the back when I was playing,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: he probably would have played on Saturday night. I mean
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: that's how it was back then, right, you know. And
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: I just think it's I love the whole concussion protocol
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: because it's just black and white. You have to go
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: through every step before you are eligible to play again.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: And could we have fudged a step maybe and put
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: him in Friday night. Not I'm not gonna do that,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: and I'm not I'm not gonna have our trainers do that.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: So that's why he didn't play Friday night, and he
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: could play Saturday night, you know, and he was probably
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: you know, it was funny, was I thought he was
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: a little tentative at first on Saturday, okay, And it's
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: like you have to go through a physical practice before
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: you can be cleared to play, which he did. But
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: a physical practice with your own teammates is not like
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: playing an opponent, and it's not the same. So I
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: thought he was a little tentative. In fact, I wasn't
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: even going to play him in overtime, but Tyler Helton
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: had sent me a clip from Nick Saban on It's
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: a great story when he was fifteen years old and
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: he was a quarterback and there was fourth and seven
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: or whatever, fourth and goal from the seven yard line,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and he called the plays, he was the quarterback, and
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: the coach called the time out, and Nick Saban said,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I'm so excited that he called the time out because
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: he can call this play. And he went over to
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: the sidelines and he says, coach, what do you want
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: to call? And the coach said, well, you're going to
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: call a play, he said, but you have an All
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: State running back and you got an all state wide receiver.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: He said, just make sure whatever play you call go
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: to one of those two. And he says that was
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: the best lesson he learned because it's not so much
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: about the play, it's just make sure it's going in
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: the right player's hands. So I wasn't going to play
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Joe winning overtime because I thought he was tentative, and
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: I thought about what Tyler has sent me. I said,
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: this kid scored thirty goals for us last year. How
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: do I not put him on the ice in overtime?
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he talks about the game winning goal in our
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: interview coming up because he wanted to shoot it but
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: he never saw He wanted to go glove low, but
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: he never saw it available.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Then that's why he made his move. Was a goal
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: scorer goal, Yeah, it was. It was. I actually thought
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: he got it, like.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: At first, I didn't realize it went in because he
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: almost when he turned around, he almost got it with
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: the paddle.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: So Nick Saban has multiple national championships with Alabama, multiple
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: wins with the Dolphins in the NFL. He's got one
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: hockey coaching win as well.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he got one layer of the night. Yeah, give
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: him credit. See if he can get me on college
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: game day.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: As a picker.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Well, maybe they'll come up. Maybe they'll come to the
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: start for next year.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Who knows.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Well, hey, look, if we were undefeated, maybe they would
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: have showed up last week at Air against Air Force.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: You never know, they're going back to Oregon this week.
• 8:00
