- 1:24Speaker 5: go to Minnesota.
- 1:25Speaker 4: But the two nothing series lead.
- 1:28Speaker 3: Game three is Saturday in Saint Paul.
- 1:31Speaker 5: Never loss, avs up two. Oh you know it took
- 1:36Speaker 5: me a long time.
- 1:36Speaker 7: I didn't know tone. Look was the dude NAIs Ventura
- 1:39Speaker 7: for the longest time had Oh he.
- 1:40Speaker 5: Didn't know that. I didn't know that. I thought he
- 1:42Speaker 5: by the way, I thought he was great and he was.
- 1:44Speaker 7: Good all start where we began, which is that wind
- 1:52Speaker 7: felt different to me. It felt like a full belief
- 1:58Speaker 7: that this is in I've known they're the best team
- 2:01Speaker 7: in hockey, but it's the first time I really felt
- 2:03Speaker 7: like this is like twenty twenty two, like they have
- 2:06Speaker 7: all the requisite things that you need with very little
- 2:11Speaker 7: question marks.
- 2:12Speaker 1: To me, it felt like if this were a boxing match,
- 2:15Speaker 1: how do you want to fight? You want to just
- 2:16Speaker 1: throw haymakers at each other like they did in game one?
- 2:18Speaker 1: Or do you want to dance a little bit? You
- 2:20Speaker 1: want to do the sweet science thing. That's what the
- 2:22Speaker 1: Avs did. They played both styles and they won both styles.
- 2:25Speaker 5: Vica again, you're totally right. When will you learn this
- 2:30Speaker 5: is how it works hockey? Breton hockey? Vicar here, Okay,
- 2:35Speaker 5: do you think we're here to save the playoff run? Well,
- 2:38Speaker 5: what kills me is look, I'm not again, I'm not
- 2:43Speaker 5: going overboard here and I'm not going to look ahead.
- 2:47Speaker 5: But when I see people reacting to these two Avalanche wins,
- 2:51Speaker 5: and these are smart hockey people who were going, oh, well, yeah,
- 2:57Speaker 5: well so deep, oh up the middle of the oh.
- 3:03Speaker 7: But it's the opponent that you're facing, which is really
- 3:06Speaker 7: talented great to do this to them is a different thing.
- 3:09Speaker 5: Agreed, Well, you know what, Minnesota may be the second
- 3:12Speaker 5: best team in the league. I'm not even kidding there
- 3:13Speaker 5: would be. It's a really really good hockey club, and
- 3:17Speaker 5: if they get their guys back, it's gonna be even
- 3:19Speaker 5: more difficult. What I am saying is I don't think
- 3:23Speaker 5: that people would be reacting like this if they'd actually
- 3:26Speaker 5: watched the Avs play in Round one, if they actually
- 3:31Speaker 5: watched like a lot of Avalanche hockey through the course
- 3:34Speaker 5: of this season and then into the postseason. Which is
- 3:37Speaker 5: why I also said, I don't think people realized how
- 3:42Speaker 5: well the LA Kings defended and how committed they were
- 3:45Speaker 5: to it.
- 3:45Speaker 7: Well, that's I don't think they gave the Kings enough credit.
- 3:48Speaker 5: How many hits did Minnesota have last night?
- 3:52Speaker 7: They had uh twenty or thirty one thirty one hits
- 3:58Speaker 7: last night, the Abs at twenty eight. How many on
- 4:00Speaker 7: average did the Kings throw in the abs in round
- 4:02Speaker 7: one forty something, Yeah, I mean, but a couple of
- 4:05Speaker 7: times they got the fifteen.
- 4:06Speaker 5: Above yeah hits. Yep, That's how they defended the entire series.
- 4:11Speaker 5: Their coach said, look, we stuck with our We tried
- 4:15Speaker 5: to break them out of it the best we possibly could,
- 4:17Speaker 5: and they never broke that. So and people think maybe
- 4:22Speaker 5: Vic the Kings will a rollover, whatever it may be.
- 4:25Speaker 5: I'm telling you, the Abs were so professional and so
- 4:30Speaker 5: dialed in in that series. People should have seen it
- 4:33Speaker 5: coming in this series and beyond, if it goes beyond,
- 4:36Speaker 5: that's all I'm questioning.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Sure, I have a question, And these questions, these type
- 4:40Speaker 1: of questions come up all the time because I don't
- 4:42Speaker 1: pretend to know a hockey rule, especially when it applies
- 4:47Speaker 1: to the playoffs. Hockey rules tend to change the ambiguous
- 4:52Speaker 1: nature of hockey rules, the vague hockey rule. For example,
- 4:57Speaker 1: last night, Nathan McKinnon did something that got me off
- 5:00Speaker 1: my seat. I asked, Jared Bednar said, what what are
- 5:03Speaker 1: you most proud of Nate last night? For his goal
- 5:05Speaker 1: scoring or his hits? And he answered the latter, the hits.
- 5:09Speaker 1: The hit he put on Matt Bouldy in the corner,
- 5:12Speaker 1: to which I quickly went on Twitter and said, wow.
- 5:15Speaker 4: That was awesome.
- 5:16Speaker 5: Have you been looking for just such an opportunity to
- 5:18Speaker 5: try and even the score or make your let me
- 5:24Speaker 5: rephrase that to make your point even more clear that
- 5:28Speaker 5: you were trying to make during the basketball series.
- 5:29Speaker 1: One hundred percent. I mean the Minnesota people who reacted
- 5:32Speaker 1: poorly to my point I made a week ago about repercussions.
- 5:37Speaker 1: You guys look so stupid right now, because this is
- 5:40Speaker 1: the exact point I was trying to make, not to
- 5:42Speaker 1: try to injure somebody, but to become more physical like
- 5:46Speaker 1: they were with you, which is what the.
- 5:48Speaker 5: Avs did last night.
- 5:50Speaker 1: These roles are reversed, right the reversed. The Aves are
- 5:53Speaker 1: the aggressor, much like the Minnesota Wolves. Stea Wolves were
- 5:56Speaker 1: the aggressor in that series. And this is what I
- 6:00Speaker 1: refer to. But I want to talk about one about
- 6:02Speaker 1: one particular hit because I need you, as a hockey guy,
- 6:06Speaker 1: to explain to me.
- 6:08Speaker 5: So that hit is out.
- 6:09Speaker 1: There, everybody's talking about. Everybody saw it. Boldie went down
- 6:13Speaker 1: as as if he had passed, and everyone is It's
- 6:17Speaker 1: right down the middle.
- 6:18Speaker 5: Great hit.
- 6:19Speaker 1: That's how you do it in the playoffs too, that's
- 6:21Speaker 1: obvious boarding. He should have been suspended and fined.
- 6:24Speaker 5: What is it? It was a hockey hit, So why
- 6:30Speaker 5: there's so many people to right?
- 6:31Speaker 1: So here's where like, if I see something in basketball,
- 6:35Speaker 1: I could tell you if that's, you know, a genuine
- 6:39Speaker 1: foul or not, you'll be to explain it.
- 6:41Speaker 5: Yeah, can you explain that?
- 6:43Speaker 1: Because why are so many people calling for Nathan McKinnon's head,
- 6:47Speaker 1: calling him cheap and dirty?
- 6:49Speaker 5: And if this were anybody else, they they'd be because
- 6:52Speaker 5: because they don't like him. And by the way, remember
- 6:56Speaker 5: the injury to Rope, I guess it was. It was
- 6:58Speaker 5: the last game the As played in Alice this year.
- 7:01Speaker 4: Yep.
- 7:02Speaker 5: And he and Hits collide and Hits one down. It
- 7:05Speaker 5: wasn't egregious, it wasn't dirty, it wasn't anything. But I've
- 7:10Speaker 5: had people he did the same thing to Hits, And
- 7:12Speaker 5: now look what he's doing to Boldie. I'm like, do
- 7:15Speaker 5: you know the game? Do you understand the game? Whether
- 7:18Speaker 5: or not the puck was quote on Boldie's stick, The
- 7:21Speaker 5: puck is in the vicinity. They're both going for the puck. Now,
- 7:25Speaker 5: Boldie because he had pivoted in reversed direction. He's trying
- 7:28Speaker 5: to swoop through the corner and he is going down.
- 7:31Speaker 5: But it's it's a it's it's that Okay, So what
- 7:35Speaker 5: is boarding? Boarding is when you have your back turn
- 7:39Speaker 5: to the player and you hit him in the numbers
- 7:41Speaker 5: and you you throw his face against Yeah, but you're
- 7:44Speaker 5: but you're but you're close to the boards. You're not
- 7:46Speaker 5: six feet away from the board.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Close to the boards. Mean, I guess I'm trying to
- 7:49Speaker 1: really whittle that.
- 7:50Speaker 5: But it's also it's it doesn't even apply because within
- 7:54Speaker 5: three feet, vic within three feet, but you get the numbers.
- 7:57Speaker 5: But still shoulder that hit Nate even went down. I
- 8:02Speaker 5: mean he's leaning down as bold he's going. It was
- 8:06Speaker 5: it was unfortunate for Matt Boldie. I would say his
- 8:10Speaker 5: head hit the boards pretty hard. Yeah, but it's a
- 8:12Speaker 5: hockey play. It's not an egregious play. Can I at all?
- 8:16Speaker 5: Can I give you guys? Do you mind if I
- 8:18Speaker 5: try and make you two zebos here? I mean, if
- 8:20Speaker 5: that happened to our guy, we probably go with the Hell. Well,
- 8:23Speaker 5: that's what I'm asking. I'm not trying.
- 8:24Speaker 1: I'm just trying to paint a picture here and have.
- 8:27Speaker 5: You explained it to me. The better hit Vic was
- 8:29Speaker 5: Nathan McKinnon chasing Quinn Hughes all the way around the zone.
- 8:34Speaker 5: This is in the av zone where Hughes finally goes
- 8:37Speaker 5: into the circle and McKinnon has enough and he just
- 8:39Speaker 5: blows him off the puck, takes the puck and sends
- 8:42Speaker 5: it out of the zone. That was the better play.
- 8:44Speaker 7: You know who's really impressive at that at just chasing
- 8:47Speaker 7: Hughes around his own zone one on one on Taves Well, yeah,
- 8:50Speaker 7: but I'm talking about in his own defensive zone. Hughes,
- 8:54Speaker 7: Val Nachushkin does not lose him. It's like Hughes is
- 8:58Speaker 7: a great skater.
- 8:59Speaker 5: Early and res and spins.
- 9:02Speaker 7: He can't lose Val unless he goes behind the net
- 9:04Speaker 7: because he tried to a couple of times whip around
- 9:06Speaker 7: like remember when Nachos did that to Tarasenko, put him
- 9:10Speaker 7: in the spin cycle like three times in five seconds.
- 9:13Speaker 7: Val doesn't lose anybody. He's so good at that. But
- 9:16Speaker 7: let me give you two stats. I'm gonna try and
- 9:19Speaker 7: make you gazebe blow your doors off?
- 9:20Speaker 4: Can do?
- 9:21Speaker 5: Please blow my doors off?
- 9:22Speaker 7: Here's one. This is from Corey Massasak. There have been
- 9:26Speaker 7: three hundred and sixty minutes of playoff hockey so far
- 9:29Speaker 7: for the Apps, how long have they trailed?
- 9:34Speaker 5: Uh?
- 9:34Speaker 1: Very little in that Uh well, in the first game
- 9:37Speaker 1: for about what a minute?
- 9:39Speaker 5: And in the LA series.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I'll say two minutes and thirteen seconds.
- 9:45Speaker 7: Four to thirty Okay, four minutes and thirty seconds through
- 9:48Speaker 7: six games is how much they've trailed so far.
- 9:51Speaker 5: You know, play with the lead. When you look back
- 9:53Speaker 5: at Minnesota versus Dallas, it's much easier to get your
- 9:59Speaker 5: comfortability actor going and play your game when you've got
- 10:01Speaker 5: the lead. Yeah, they did against Dallas. When they're having
- 10:06Speaker 5: to play catch up against the Avalanche, they've done. You know,
- 10:09Speaker 5: they've done a pretty nice job. I mean Game one, obviously,
- 10:12Speaker 5: they took a five to four lead. Last night, they
- 10:15Speaker 5: get a goal six seconds after the take won. We
- 10:19Speaker 5: all thought it was gonna be the same thing. Let
- 10:21Speaker 5: me let me give Rag some credit because I'm listening
- 10:24Speaker 5: to he and Spring on the way home, and he
- 10:27Speaker 5: broke it down the way I'm going to break it down.
- 10:30Speaker 5: Was a very good breakdown by Rag of what happened.
- 10:35Speaker 5: That was on Cale mccarr period. End of story. It's
- 10:38Speaker 5: on mccarr because he's moving to the man outside. He's
- 10:42Speaker 5: moving outside the dots to a guy who's in the
- 10:46Speaker 5: neutral zone. Now again it's right off the face off,
- 10:50Speaker 5: so it's a little, you know, a little confusing, that's correct.
- 10:54Speaker 5: But caprice Off is his guy coming into the zone
- 10:56Speaker 5: because Taves is over there, McKinnon's over there, he doesn't
- 11:00Speaker 5: need to be there, right and caprice offf gets lost
- 11:03Speaker 5: on his way in. Obviously, this guy is a superb player,
- 11:07Speaker 5: Caroll caprice Off, I mean, he's just a he's a
- 11:09Speaker 5: world class telling. That's why he's the highest paid player
- 11:12Speaker 5: in the league.
- 11:13Speaker 7: Here's the other one who is Nathan McKinnon's idol, his
- 11:17Speaker 7: mused his friend McKinnon last night just passed Sidney Crosby
- 11:23Speaker 7: for three three plus point games in the postseason.
- 11:27Speaker 4: Wow.
- 11:27Speaker 7: And he's tied for fifteenth in the history of the league.
- 11:31Speaker 5: For the wow. Wow. Wow. I did not know that.
- 11:34Speaker 7: Yeah Wow, Yeah had already.
- 11:39Speaker 5: That's some really wow.
- 11:41Speaker 1: That's wild.
- 11:45Speaker 7: Dude produces every single time he takes the ice. And
- 11:49Speaker 7: in the case of last night, and why I think
- 11:51Speaker 7: it was one of my favorite McKinnon games in years,
- 11:55Speaker 7: is that it happened on both sides of the ice.
- 11:57Speaker 7: We've seen the pretty nature of his game and him
- 11:59Speaker 7: scoring crazy go but for him to do what he
- 12:01Speaker 7: did defensively last night was crazy.
- 12:03Speaker 5: We know what he has. Vicky's strong. He's just very
- 12:06Speaker 5: strong human being.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Right, you weren't here for I don't know what year
- 12:11Speaker 1: Nate was in when they lost in seven to Minnesota?
- 12:15Speaker 5: Was it? What year was that most one?
- 12:18Speaker 4: Huh?
- 12:18Speaker 5: Yere one? No? No, what year? What year of two
- 12:21Speaker 5: thousand and uh? Sixteen?
- 12:26Speaker 1: Fifteen?
- 12:27Speaker 5: Yeah, two thousand and four, I'll look it up. Yeah,
- 12:31Speaker 5: go ahead, God, No, Nate was drafted in two thousand
- 12:34Speaker 5: and thirteen, so it was the spring of twenty fourteen.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Do you remember how distraught he in particular was?
- 12:42Speaker 5: Oh yeah, he had ten points in that series, by
- 12:44Speaker 5: the way, all at home, But do you remember the room?
- 12:48Speaker 1: For some reason, I was working in the locker room
- 12:50Speaker 1: that day. I was working that series.
- 12:52Speaker 5: You know why, Vic you used to be on the news.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Do you remember how distraught he was about losing that
- 12:59Speaker 1: particular this series to that particular team.
- 13:01Speaker 5: He was an eighteen year old kid and it hit
- 13:03Speaker 5: him hard, Yes, really hard.
- 13:05Speaker 1: I just wonder how much of that you know when
- 13:07Speaker 1: you lose to specific teams and those moments and that
- 13:10Speaker 1: gravity hits you and you wonder how do you maintain
- 13:13Speaker 1: that intensity? And I think it's pretty easy. You recollect
- 13:17Speaker 1: that stuff, you put in your memory bank, and.
- 13:20Speaker 5: You use it when you need.
- 13:21Speaker 1: Two years later, a.
- 13:22Speaker 5: Decade letter, damn, more than a decade later.
- 13:25Speaker 7: He had in Game six and seven, he had no
- 13:27Speaker 7: points and he was a dash six combined in those.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Two That's how I remember it going. And he was,
- 13:33Speaker 1: I mean, just completely overwhelmed.
- 13:35Speaker 5: And Varley gave up four to one goal leads in
- 13:38Speaker 5: that game seven at home. Oh I mean, I say, Varley,
- 13:42Speaker 5: the Avs gave up seven or seven for to one
- 13:46Speaker 5: goal leads in Game seven at home and it sucked.
- 13:51Speaker 5: That's crazy.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Did you guys hear about this? Mark Cuban is funding
- 13:56Speaker 1: the Indiana football team?
- 13:58Speaker 5: All right? You know what? Too late? Too late. I'm
- 14:03Speaker 5: not here for that.
- 14:07Speaker 4: Far out about it.
- 14:11Speaker 7: The abs are off until Saturday, but the hockey doesn't stop.

- 14:50Speaker 7: to Stony's on Lincoln for another notch in the Altitude
- 14:55Speaker 7: Sports Radio Playoff viewing party tour that's powered by Michelobultr
- 14:58Speaker 7: a great Michelobultri deals and a chance to win an
- 15:02Speaker 7: autographic Gabe Landskoptres.
- 15:04Speaker 5: I love that stories on Lincoln.
- 15:07Speaker 7: Can I ask you something because there is and I
- 15:11Speaker 7: heard a little bit of this last year. I attributed
- 15:14Speaker 7: this narrative to just not having enough time to gel.
- 15:22Speaker 7: Marty Natures has had a stigma surrounding him that he
- 15:26Speaker 7: is not a playoff riser, that he's a playoff dropper,
- 15:30Speaker 7: and ben Nar was asked about that. We asked him
- 15:33Speaker 7: about it earlier in the show, but he also was
- 15:35Speaker 7: asked last night after the game about that.
- 15:36Speaker 8: Listen, listen some of the criticisms on Marty from his
- 15:41Speaker 8: younger years prior to being here, like they may have
- 15:44Speaker 8: been valid, you know, and you know, Marty and I
- 15:47Speaker 8: talked about this, but just because something's true one day
- 15:50Speaker 8: doesn't make it true the next, you know, and especially
- 15:53Speaker 8: over time Marty's he's put in a lot of hard
- 15:56Speaker 8: work to be a trusted player on our team. Defensively.
- 16:01Speaker 8: One of the talks we had when he got here
- 16:02Speaker 8: in a handful of times after that, if you're gonna
- 16:05Speaker 8: play with Nate and playgats of opposition's best guys every night,
- 16:09Speaker 8: I gotta be able to trust you. You can't play
- 16:10Speaker 8: there no matter how good you are offensively, right, the style,
- 16:14Speaker 8: the players he plays with. It's important that he's on
- 16:17Speaker 8: that line because he helps him a lot, and his
- 16:20Speaker 8: game has grown.
- 16:22Speaker 7: He said that narrative is no longer valid when talking
- 16:25Speaker 7: about Marty Nachos. It's amazing to see over the course
- 16:31Speaker 7: of this year how much chemistry has been built between
- 16:33Speaker 7: him and McKinnon. It's allowed McKinnon to do some different things,
- 16:36Speaker 7: especially on the power play, where he's been able to
- 16:38Speaker 7: move a little bit more. You talked about that little
- 16:40Speaker 7: tap pass he had Kilandeskog for that first power play goal.
- 16:44Speaker 5: I don't know if Martin.
- 16:45Speaker 7: Nachos isn't here, If he's in that spot on the
- 16:48Speaker 7: power play.
- 16:49Speaker 5: That's a very good point. And it's interesting because they
- 16:53Speaker 5: can both log the puck up the ice. They're both
- 16:56Speaker 5: incredibly talented, and he's playing a good, hard game of hockey.
- 17:01Speaker 5: I mean he's not. He's not some sort of shrinking violet.
- 17:06Speaker 5: He's out there doing his stuff. I mean when when
- 17:09Speaker 5: when he scored that goal last night, he just darted
- 17:11Speaker 5: the drop pass from Nate. He darts in and he
- 17:16Speaker 5: could get lit up there in the high slot. He
- 17:18Speaker 5: could backhand flip blam. Because his speed, everybody's just like eh,
- 17:24Speaker 5: you know, he's coming in like boom done. He caught
- 17:28Speaker 5: backs from by surprise. He's got by the way, he's
- 17:32Speaker 5: now tied. Nate leads the ABS with ten points in
- 17:35Speaker 5: six games. You've got Nachos with seven points. You've got
- 17:40Speaker 5: Gabe Landiskok more than a pointy game guy in the postseason.
- 17:43Speaker 5: He's got seven points with three goals in six games. Yeah,
- 17:46Speaker 5: you know his number three. Yeah, with a good stick
- 17:52Speaker 5: and he's talking about Dave Taves. Davon Taves got seven points.
- 17:58Speaker 5: But get this luck, he's got six, scales got five,
- 18:01Speaker 5: has got four, was got I mean, everybody's got a point, dude.
- 18:04Speaker 7: When we were talking to Bednard, by the way, you
- 18:05Speaker 7: spend a little too much time talking about how long
- 18:07Speaker 7: and great his stick.
- 18:09Speaker 5: Was, because it is just it's amazingly good.
- 18:13Speaker 4: It is.
- 18:15Speaker 5: Just what I mean, watch him, watch him chase let's
- 18:18Speaker 5: say Chase, watch him shadow guys in his own zone
- 18:23Speaker 5: talking about seven Vontave's watch him shadow guy like Caprisov
- 18:28Speaker 5: loves to do that. Yeah, put you in the wash
- 18:30Speaker 5: around the zone around watch Devon Tave's skate with and
- 18:35Speaker 5: by the way, Leaneskog did it last night on He's
- 18:38Speaker 5: Got the Pope. Check Watch watch that was on the
- 18:41Speaker 5: fore check watching your own zone, Watch Davontave stay with
- 18:44Speaker 5: these guys. I mean, he's he's maybe a way better
- 18:48Speaker 5: skater than people realize or is given credit for. He was.
- 18:51Speaker 5: He was excellent.
- 18:52Speaker 7: One other thing that was mentioned last night the post
- 18:54Speaker 7: came from watch.
- 18:55Speaker 1: His feet, Vic, watch his feet, and that's why I
- 18:58Speaker 1: love n He's like I answer again, and he's more
- 19:01Speaker 1: than a nice princess based on what you just said
- 19:03Speaker 1: there not afraid to get dirty.
- 19:05Speaker 5: No, he had that moment.
- 19:06Speaker 7: I mentioned it earlier, but when Tarasenko's on him and
- 19:09Speaker 7: he hits him with one spin and Tarasenko has to
- 19:11Speaker 7: like adjust, and then another one and then another one
- 19:14Speaker 7: just had him in a blender. Bennar's mentioned this multiple times.
- 19:18Speaker 7: He said it, I think heading into this season why
- 19:21Speaker 7: he was so excited about this team, and it's about
- 19:24Speaker 7: the depth.
- 19:24Speaker 5: Did you think you had this much firepower across the lineup?
- 19:29Speaker 8: I was hoping we did. Because we're getting it now
- 19:33Speaker 8: right And it doesn't mean we're always going to get
- 19:35Speaker 8: the depth scoring, but I think all of our lines
- 19:39Speaker 8: and players are capable of producing. You know, the players
- 19:44Speaker 8: are going to go through hot streaks cold streaks, but
- 19:47Speaker 8: I also feel like playoff time, when everything's on the line,
- 19:52Speaker 8: that can drag the best out in your group at times,
- 19:54Speaker 8: and sometimes they can drag the worst out in your group.
- 19:57Speaker 8: And right now, our guys like to me, it's mental
- 20:01Speaker 8: toughness when you.
- 20:03Speaker 7: Have and this is what's really incredible. Almost every acquisition
- 20:08Speaker 7: that was made at the deadline, and Cadri's the obvious one.
- 20:12Speaker 7: He's a guy who we've seen play here before. He's
- 20:14Speaker 7: a very good player, one of the better players in
- 20:17Speaker 7: the league. But you get this production from Nick Waugh,
- 20:21Speaker 7: who's been great during this playoff stretch.
- 20:23Speaker 1: And he's been there, he's done it with another team,
- 20:25Speaker 1: but he gets the moment.
- 20:28Speaker 7: Blankenberg, who he was insurance right in case he had
- 20:31Speaker 7: some guys go out. I think he's done fine in
- 20:33Speaker 7: filling in.
- 20:34Speaker 5: Now.
- 20:35Speaker 7: Obviously you want Manson back in the lineup, but I
- 20:37Speaker 7: thought he's been fine.
- 20:38Speaker 5: But Kulak's the big one.
- 20:39Speaker 7: That's I think the I don't want to call it
- 20:42Speaker 7: a big surprise, but maybe the most underrated acquisitions steady. Yeah,
- 20:50Speaker 7: And that's why it's And I remember the reaction when
- 20:53Speaker 7: the trade happened. It was a second rounder in Gerard
- 20:56Speaker 7: for Kulak, and a lot of people are like, what
- 20:59Speaker 7: what is this trade? And ever since then, you know,
- 21:03Speaker 7: it's kind of like when you don't have a kel
- 21:05Speaker 7: mccarr type skill level moge. I like to think of
- 21:08Speaker 7: my defenseman like left tackles. If I don't hear their
- 21:11Speaker 7: name mentioned all that much, they're doing a pretty damn
- 21:13Speaker 7: good job. And Kulak's just one of those guys.
- 21:15Speaker 5: Absolutely he is. And you know, you realize he's got
- 21:18Speaker 5: three assists in the postseason so far, so good for him. Now,
- 21:22Speaker 5: I look back to the the second goal the Wild scored.
- 21:29Speaker 5: He's got his man. You're off along the dboards and
- 21:32Speaker 5: this guy's just a kid, and they're battling behind the net,
- 21:35Speaker 5: battle behind that they scoot and you're off makes that
- 21:37Speaker 5: backhanded pass to the slot. Great play. Kelly had pinched
- 21:42Speaker 5: down just a little bit. I mean, I can't go
- 21:45Speaker 5: through every single goal that the opposition scores and say
- 21:48Speaker 5: all our guys screwed up, because you know what, sometimes
- 21:53Speaker 5: the other guys make great plays. Yeah, and that was
- 21:55Speaker 5: one of them. Cool I was, and that was kool
- 21:57Speaker 5: Ax guy. But that it's been few and far between. Overall,
- 22:02Speaker 5: he's been very, very good, steady as she goes. And
- 22:06Speaker 5: again I didn't ask if we had an hour with
- 22:09Speaker 5: coach Bednard, we'd ask him more about it. But I'm
- 22:11Speaker 5: sure as a coach he vic he loves those kind
- 22:15Speaker 5: of guys because when he steps on the ice, there's
- 22:19Speaker 5: no unpredictable nature of his game. You know exactly what
- 22:22Speaker 5: you're going to get. And by the way, he'll also
- 22:25Speaker 5: shoot the puck and just keep.
- 22:27Speaker 4: Fired on that.
- 22:28Speaker 5: You know, yes, sir, good question for you.
- 22:31Speaker 1: All right, the way Wedgwood is playing, I mean supremely
- 22:34Speaker 1: confident loose Again that sixth save Pete k where he
- 22:39Speaker 1: was just stopping everything. I thought that was the key
- 22:41Speaker 1: to the game, because they had a chance to tie
- 22:44Speaker 1: it up.
- 22:44Speaker 5: And he just refused. He wouldn't allow it. Is there
- 22:48Speaker 5: is there a game now where Blackwood plays? How does
- 22:51Speaker 5: this work? I do not know. I would say no.
- 22:56Speaker 5: I mean I think that Wedgwood's playing pretty dang good.
- 23:00Speaker 5: You know, coach had made it pretty clear before the
- 23:03Speaker 5: postseason began. It worked for us all year long, talking
- 23:06Speaker 5: about some real sort of rotation. Why not go with that?
- 23:09Speaker 5: You know, I don't know, Vic, maybe.
- 23:10Speaker 1: If somebody's playing at this kind of level, well, they've
- 23:13Speaker 1: already Minnesota. I mean you you showed your cards. I
- 23:17Speaker 1: mean you you've gone to a back, You've gone to
- 23:19Speaker 1: your other goalie.
- 23:20Speaker 5: They got lit up, just like your first guy did.
- 23:22Speaker 5: Hang on to that for one second. What if Bennard
- 23:25Speaker 5: looks at it and goes, you know what, wed just
- 23:27Speaker 5: looked a little tired in this game. Yeah, let's say
- 23:30Speaker 5: we won, or let's say they they lost two to
- 23:32Speaker 5: one or whatever. He just looked a little tired, a
- 23:35Speaker 5: little You know, they've got full confidence to go to
- 23:38Speaker 5: Mackenzie Blackwood and have him shut in and play well.
- 23:41Speaker 5: But now, Vic, back to your point, what do you
- 23:45Speaker 5: do if you're John Hines? Now, now what do you do?
- 23:48Speaker 5: Because I thought, and I know this is gonna sound weird,
- 23:53Speaker 5: actually thought that Volstatt played better and he gave up eight. Yeah,
- 23:59Speaker 5: then Bastrom did Baxstrom listen to me? Good lord, I
- 24:03Speaker 5: got old midst while yeah, old middle sort of wild goalies.
- 24:05Speaker 5: In my head, I thought he. I thought he played
- 24:08Speaker 5: better than Philip Gustison did last night.
- 24:10Speaker 7: Well, Gustafson goes in and it's not like they were
- 24:13Speaker 7: hammering him with shots early, but the first two shots
- 24:16Speaker 7: they did put on net went in the net.
- 24:17Speaker 5: You should hear Johnny Lyles. Keep shooting, he can't stop anything.
- 24:21Speaker 5: Keep shot looking at him. It's awesome, you know.
- 24:25Speaker 7: That's It's a good point though, when you go to
- 24:28Speaker 7: a card like that, this is a dangerous place to be.
- 24:31Speaker 5: Man.
- 24:32Speaker 7: When you're entering game three of the second round of
- 24:34Speaker 7: the playoffs and they ask you who's starting between the
- 24:37Speaker 7: pipes and you're like, I don't know, that's not a
- 24:40Speaker 7: great spot to be he'pial, Well, of course we have.
- 24:44Speaker 7: But especially you know, I gave you guys the numbers.
- 24:47Speaker 7: They're playing faber In Hughes thirty minutes a night, and
- 24:51Speaker 7: I think a lot of that has to do with
- 24:53Speaker 7: they don't trust the rest of their blue line right now,
- 24:55Speaker 7: because they got two guys who are the names again
- 24:57Speaker 7: most who did I point.
- 24:58Speaker 5: Out, you're talking about spur urgon and uh, well Petrie
- 25:02Speaker 5: played last night. So Spurgeon, Spurgeon and Middleton and Middleton. Well,
- 25:05Speaker 5: but yeah, but they also well it's yeah, I guess
- 25:09Speaker 5: it's gonna be Bogosian or Petrie. It's gonna be Middleton.
- 25:13Speaker 7: Yeah, no, no, what I'm saying Spurgeon and Middleton have given
- 25:17Speaker 7: up eight and nine goals, correct, and the time that
- 25:19Speaker 7: they've been not them giving them up, but eight goals
- 25:22Speaker 7: for one guy, nine goals for the other one.
- 25:24Speaker 5: They've been on the ice through two games in this series. Correct,
- 25:27Speaker 5: So they are pushing.
- 25:28Speaker 7: And I heard EJ at the beginning of the broadcast,
- 25:30Speaker 7: they asked, how much are you gonna play favor In Hughes.
- 25:32Speaker 7: He goes, I'd play him thirty and they damn near dead.
- 25:35Speaker 5: You know.
- 25:36Speaker 1: The more think about this, not enough credit is given
- 25:41Speaker 1: to McFarlane and Sachetkin Company because a lot of programs,
- 25:46Speaker 1: a lot of franchises will they just take too long
- 25:49Speaker 1: to react. And they saw the need at that position clearly,
- 25:54Speaker 1: always in need for any team. Not only did they
- 25:57Speaker 1: address it, they addressed it twofold talking about yeah, and
- 26:02Speaker 1: they did it mid season. Do you understand I just
- 26:06Speaker 1: want to take you back year but yeah, yeah, I
- 26:09Speaker 1: want to take you back to early l early last season.
- 26:12Speaker 1: How many teams with championship aspirations can literally replace the
- 26:17Speaker 1: wheels of they took their wheels off and replaced them
- 26:20Speaker 1: in the middle of a season.
- 26:22Speaker 7: Well, it doesn't happen to that point, Vick. The one
- 26:26Speaker 7: thing that I give a ton of credit to McFarland
- 26:31Speaker 7: and Zachic about is they aren't perfect in the moves
- 26:35Speaker 7: that they make.
- 26:35Speaker 1: But they're willing to take risks.
- 26:38Speaker 7: But they're willing to do that, and I think, more
- 26:40Speaker 7: importantly than anything else, if they know something was a mistake,
- 26:46Speaker 7: they change it. It's not not like, well let's see
- 26:48Speaker 7: how this plays out if you look back.
- 26:50Speaker 5: No, you fix it, yor you have first.
- 26:53Speaker 7: Acquisition, then contract extension. Then you look at like Johansen
- 26:57Speaker 7: or middle stat or guys like that, moves that they
- 27:01Speaker 7: made that it's just like, man, it ain't working. They
- 27:03Speaker 7: make the move immediately they're like, no, not gonna work,
- 27:06Speaker 7: Let's move on something else.
- 27:07Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up because I've already seen
- 27:09Speaker 1: a couple of comments. And this is where I think
- 27:12Speaker 1: the Nuggets this offseason are going to have to ask
- 27:15Speaker 1: themselves the same questions. Yeah, how quickly can we act?
- 27:19Speaker 1: How efficiently can we act? And are you acting from
- 27:22Speaker 1: a place of leverage? You may not have the leverage
- 27:25Speaker 1: and you still have to act, and that's the toughest
- 27:27Speaker 1: place to be. You may not get you might get
- 27:30Speaker 1: sixty cents return on what you have, but you have
- 27:33Speaker 1: to act unless you really believe that it was an
- 27:36Speaker 1: outlier what happened in this season.
- 27:39Speaker 5: I don't know, but that therein lies the dilemma.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Let me ask you guys in the NBA, who do
- 27:45Speaker 1: you think plays in the finals right now?
- 27:47Speaker 5: If you have to give me two teams to meet
- 27:48Speaker 5: in the finals, Well, Detroit seems they seemingly found themselves
- 27:52Speaker 5: Knicks and Osey. Yeah, Okay, Well, we'll see in the
- 27:56Speaker 5: Eastern Conference final, because I think Detroit's gonna get past
- 27:58Speaker 5: Cleveland easily.
- 27:59Speaker 1: The Knicks are ripped teams right now, agree, I mean,
- 28:01Speaker 1: just devouring teams.
- 28:02Speaker 5: They're playing with enormous confidence. And I don't see, okay, see.
- 28:06Speaker 1: Losing in the in the West, I think those those
- 28:09Speaker 1: two teams go.
- 28:10Speaker 5: Okayse you will probably repeat as much as I hate
- 28:12Speaker 5: to see it.
- 28:13Speaker 1: But that's where it's gonna go. Sure, I think it's
- 28:16Speaker 1: far more predictable there in the NHL. All right, let's
- 28:19Speaker 1: say the Aves represent the West. Who do you see
- 28:23Speaker 1: in the East right now?
- 28:24Speaker 5: Carolina? Probably? Yeah, unless I mean, I don't know. I
- 28:30Speaker 5: think the Buffalo and or Carolina is gonna beat Philly.
- 28:34Speaker 5: But Carolina and or Buffalo could have a puncher's chance
- 28:37Speaker 5: if things go right. But Carolina is clearly the best
- 28:41Speaker 5: team left in the East.
- 28:42Speaker 7: I mean, the two, the two favor the two favorites
- 28:45Speaker 7: to win the Cup right now? Are the abs in Carolina?
- 28:47Speaker 7: Should be some books Carolina is above the Abs.
- 28:49Speaker 5: Maybe, I mean, it feels like they've got an easier path. Well,
- 28:54Speaker 5: I mean, we'll see, we'll see, yeah.
- 28:59Speaker 7: But yeah, I think there's teams that are clearly standing
- 29:02Speaker 7: head and shoulders above the others. Now, the thing is,
- 29:04Speaker 7: by the.
- 29:04Speaker 5: Way, I've got a nose shirt that drive me crazy.
- 29:07Speaker 1: I hate that I'm getting my I'm getting absolutely texted
- 29:11Speaker 1: to death right now by whom my.
- 29:13Speaker 5: Brother for what? Wait, bad hip or gray face? Which
- 29:19Speaker 5: one is? He took this?
- 29:21Speaker 1: He took the shingles shot yesterday, and he said, why
- 29:24Speaker 1: didn't you tell me? What do you guys remember when
- 29:27Speaker 1: I received this the shingles vaccine.
- 29:30Speaker 5: A couple of years ago.
- 29:32Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember. It was the worst
- 29:34Speaker 1: thing I'd ever I was out for a week, which he's.
- 29:37Speaker 5: Blaming me for not warning him. Have you have you
- 29:39Speaker 5: done it most? I'd almost rather get shingles. Well, yeah
- 29:43Speaker 5: I want shingles.
- 29:45Speaker 1: I probably don't, But let me tell you that shot
- 29:47Speaker 1: for those of you above the age of fifty you haven't. Yeah,
- 29:50Speaker 1: it's for old people. Sorry, Brett and Nelly. You'll get
- 29:53Speaker 1: there eventually.
- 29:53Speaker 7: I actually got shingles in college.
- 29:56Speaker 1: You did, yes?
- 29:58Speaker 5: So what is it?
- 29:59Speaker 7: It's almost kind of like adult chicken pox sort of thing,
- 30:02Speaker 7: is a way I describe it now. I've heard it's brutal.
- 30:04Speaker 7: It wasn't that bad for me? It was like a
- 30:07Speaker 7: couple of splots, didn't. Look if you're over fifty, it's more,
- 30:10Speaker 7: it's more deadly.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Yes, it's in your system, which means you will have
- 30:14Speaker 1: to take the shingles shot at some point, because you.
- 30:17Speaker 7: I thought that meant the opposite. I thought that I
- 30:19Speaker 7: have antibodies. Now I'll forget all that.
- 30:21Speaker 5: Just listen to me.
- 30:22Speaker 1: I'm a doctor, okay, because I want you to take
- 30:24Speaker 1: the shot. I don't, in fact, go do it tomorrow.
- 30:28Speaker 5: How do we get from my my errant nose hair
- 30:31Speaker 5: to vix brother's shingles.
- 30:33Speaker 1: Because he's in bad shivering like a fool, like he's
- 30:35Speaker 1: got the flu too bad, and if you pull that
- 30:40Speaker 1: nose hair, that's what's gonna happen.
- 30:43Speaker 5: We went from we went from we went from these
- 30:47Speaker 5: zone coverage to nose hair to shingles? Is it a
- 30:50Speaker 5: delia missiming?
- 30:51Speaker 7: Is that the one don't catch your death Adelio, be
- 30:55Speaker 7: careful out that man.
- 30:56Speaker 1: I didn't seriously, but go get your shot today, Greens,
- 31:00Speaker 1: and get it.
- 31:01Speaker 5: Why, just just to see by the way they're happy
- 31:03Speaker 5: to do it too. I think they're really happy. Come
- 31:07Speaker 5: on here and get your seating gulls here. Hey, come on, man,
- 31:13Speaker 5: I was trying to be nice to that. I was
- 31:14Speaker 5: trying to be nice to her.
- 31:17Speaker 7: Test says, I also got shingles at eighteen in college, Brett,
- 31:21Speaker 7: what are you guys doing?
- 31:22Speaker 5: Man? What's the freaks playing?
- 31:24Speaker 1: You shouldn't be getting it?
- 31:25Speaker 5: I playing with prairie dogs and rub it on turtles
- 31:27Speaker 5: and stuff. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know such
- 31:30Speaker 5: a freaks.
- 31:34Speaker 7: I got shingles at thirty five on my forehead. It
- 31:37Speaker 7: broke out while I was doing one hundred miles cycling
- 31:40Speaker 7: race brutal, don't recommend.
- 31:43Speaker 5: I was climbing Mount Everest, but I remember. No. All
- 31:48Speaker 5: I remember is that it looked weird. I don't remember, like,
- 31:51Speaker 5: how would you even tell with your body? One of
- 31:54Speaker 5: the you're so white you got red splotches all over.
- 31:57Speaker 1: Your singles is like one of those weird things.
- 32:00Speaker 5: Is like gout.
- 32:01Speaker 1: You've heard of it, you don't know.
- 32:02Speaker 5: What it is? Oh, dude, you don't want gout. I'd
- 32:05Speaker 5: rather I'd rather eat a thirty eight caliber bullet than
- 32:08Speaker 5: have gout. Again, I'm not kidding, dude, it's gout sucks.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Is there a shot for that?
- 32:13Speaker 5: No, don't eat liver.
- 32:16Speaker 7: Gout does seem like the hell eats liver, Well, don't eat,
- 32:21Speaker 7: don't eat high proteins. I know two people in my
- 32:23Speaker 7: life that have had gout. I know two, and I
- 32:27Speaker 7: literally it's I'm one of the two most predictable people.
- 32:30Speaker 5: I could have guessed half gout. It's you and you're
- 32:33Speaker 5: old man, No and Paul.
- 32:36Speaker 8: Oh.
- 32:36Speaker 5: Yeah, it's people right, fragile, brittle people.
- 32:43Speaker 7: Yes, just randomly they show up with a leather like yeah.
- 32:47Speaker 5: Checks out the fact that you're even laughing about when
- 32:50Speaker 5: when the word doubt comes up, it tells me you
- 32:52Speaker 5: have no idea about the severity or the pain of
- 32:55Speaker 5: gout it. Anybody who's had it will tell you they'd
- 32:59Speaker 5: rather eat a thirty eight.
- 33:01Speaker 1: I'm not kidding how many people on this text line
- 33:04Speaker 1: said they got shingles in college?
- 33:06Speaker 5: What was I doing in college? Not roofing?
- 33:10Speaker 1: I guess is it contagious?
- 33:15Speaker 5: I have no idea. I don't know. I'm you know,
- 33:20Speaker 5: but my final thought, I'm probably just gonna check out.
- 33:23Speaker 5: It couldn't have been from women. I got insult I
- 33:25Speaker 5: got it. I got insulted. I couldn't have I got insulted.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Today what is wrong with you?
- 33:33Speaker 5: Got insulted today, got ganged up on, and I know

- 35:59Speaker 5: going to sign a North American contract. I guess is

- 38:46Speaker 7: kids going to the bar and they're like, who's the.
- 38:49Speaker 5: First president of the United States?
