Speaker 1: lack of research act. Yours truly has not read a

16
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: story or found a podcast about the Minnesota vikings in

20
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: slow to go, it'll happen. So listen closely and read

21
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: between the lines. Moving forward, when nine to Noon discusses

22
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings football, are you in lockstep with that, mad producer,

23
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: I'm in lockstep, sir so. Flying back yesterday yours truly

24
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: went to Covenant catching up holy Cow, Holy Cow. The

25
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: kid is quite the hot hot talking point these days,

26
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: isn't he? Holy Cow? Where did that come from? Ten

27
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: starts at age twenty two, eleven touchdowns, twelve interceptions, the

28
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,919
Speaker 1: arch per attempt six point seven, ran for four touchdowns

29
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: in about three and a half runs a game, and

30
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: ran four on average one point two first downs per game.

31
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: That is the statistical science of it all with JJ McCarthy,

32
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: that is the statistical game starting wherewithal of Minnesota Vikings

33
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: quarterback JJ McCarthy. There are some questions where do you

34
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: sit with the by faith portion of the equation involving

35
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy off what you off, what you feel, and

36
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 1: how much you care? Is it by faith we need

37
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: to move forward with JJ McCarthy, or is it by sight?

38
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: I know what I saw and don't really know what

39
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: to think, or maybe by the root of stiff nakedness.

40
00:02:55,760 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: Stiff nakedness, you stiff necks are They're the being stubborn, obstinate,

41
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: and unyielding with arrogant pride, refusing to change an opinion

42
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 1: formulated a couple of drafts. Ago, I want to read

43
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: all of that again. Where do you sit with the

44
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: by faith portion of the JJ McCarthy equation off what

45
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: you feel and how much you care? Is it by

46
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: faith we need to move forward? We absolutely need to

47
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: move forward with JJ McCarthy, continue to raise him as

48
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: a starter of a National Football League team? Or is

49
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: it by sight I know what I saw, don't really

50
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: know what to think? Or maybe by stiff nakedness? Are

51
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: there those being stubborn, obstinate, and unyielding with arragon pride

52
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: refusing to change an opinion formulated a couple of drafts?

53
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: Ago?

54
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: Talkbacks? Maybe we got those spots in the ten? Don't

55
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: we talkbacks? Indeed? I mean maybe? I mean there are

56
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: three options there, So flying back yesterday and going to

57
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: Covenant catching up Holy Cow get quite the hot talking point.

58
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: So please ponder. Here are a few things I found

59
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: during just a brief sweep in Covenant catch up like fashion. Right,

60
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: So Jason locknfora is now with something called sports Boom.

61
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: Not saying it's a kick in the career. I'm just

62
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: saying is with something called sports Boom, and everybody knows

63
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: his name. Probably makes sense to splash for the Sports

64
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: Boom group group, given it's not an NFL network or

65
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: an entity. I don't know more than two percent of

66
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: football fans have heard of. Nevertheless, Jason Wrights. They can

67
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: say what they want publicly, but they have some serious

68
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: questions about McCarthy. Said one NFL general manager who was

69
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:12,559
Speaker 1: exploring myriad quarterback options. Quote, Look, they're signing somebody else

70
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: to push him, and it's not just going to be

71
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: some stiff on a veteran minimum contract. So this general

72
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: manager is looking for a veteran quarterback, decided to draw

73
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: up a line in the sand. Look what they're signing

74
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: somebody else to push him, and it's not just going

75
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: to be some stiff on a veteran minimum contract. Always

76
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: these days, honey, honey, signing someone else to push him.

77
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: As part of the anonymity that goes into that general manager,

78
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,799
Speaker 1: I didn't say current or former. No One NFL general

79
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: manager that's current current stay in your lane, not recently

80
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: former okay one NFL general manager who refused to put

81
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: his name next to it. My fault always super special,

82
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: all right? Three two? So the context, the layering of

83
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: the context of the anonymity from something called sports Boom,

84
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: This is great, Honestly, what more could you want when

85
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: it comes to confirmation or when it comes to steam

86
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: sports Boom cool? Anyway, signing someone else to push him

87
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: him being JJ McCarthy. I believe that I believe that

88
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: nine to noon is a joint operation. I would venture

89
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: to say, signing someone to push McCarthy. We believe that yes, fair,

90
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 1: fair fair, They can say what they want publicly, but

91
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: they have some serious questions about McCarthy. To find serious

92
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: mister Kerrr and anonymous GM who supposedly is looking for

93
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: a veteran quarterback defined serious? What sports Boom and how

94
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: did Jason lock On four end up there? Onward? So

95
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: with everything that in Covenant catching up like fashion that

96
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: I saw yesterday in a very short amount of time,

97
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: there was a lot. So I handpicked another one. Oh

98
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: Joe a underscore NFL. Joe a underscore NFL never heard

99
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: of him until about three forty five Eastern yesterday. He's

100
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: in a National Football League film watcher and is taking

101
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: umbrage with McCarthy related terrorism, mostly originating with the nameless

102
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: Faceless crowd. He likes to argue with the nameless faceless crowd.

103
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: So my man showed every McCarthy throw twenty yards or

104
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: more for the last season. I mean, whether you agree

105
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: with it or not, well, that's covenant collapse like work

106
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: ethic right there. I mean to serve, and then he

107
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: wrote this, lots of tweens in the comments exposing themselves

108
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: as casuals. McCarthy ranks second in the National Football League

109
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: in big time throw rate big time throws rate in

110
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five per Nordo's favorite Pro Football Focus. Joe

111
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: a Underscore NFL noted NFL film watcher taking umbridge with

112
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: the nameless faceless group, lots of tweens in the comments

113
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: exposing themselves as casuals. McCarthy ranks second in the NFL

114
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: and Big Time throws rate in twenty twenty five per

115
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus. Per migrating, he had one of the

116
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: best deep ball accuracy rates, elite throw rates, and the

117
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: very best great throw rate. Take that age of rage.

118
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 1: If you don't think this is a so that he continues,

119
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: if you don't think this is a great highlight tape

120
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: of deep throws, you don't have a reasonable frame of

121
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: reference because you genuinely don't know what you're talking about.

122
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: Joe a underscore NFL. He doesn't have a horse in

123
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: the race, he's not stiff necked and doesn't seem to

124
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: have an agenda, and that's what he shared from a

125
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: contextual standpoint. Then we got my new man, Mateo. Don't

126
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 1: know who Mateo is, but if you'd like to follow

127
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: him on one of many social media platforms at mj

128
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: N Designer at MJN Designer with all this McCarthy terrorism

129
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: really unacceptably entering my life, but nevertheless it did because

130
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: we had an open segment. He wrote. He missed his

131
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: entire rookie year due to injury, missed a full season's

132
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: worth of snaps in practice. Then he spent last off

133
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: season rehabbing. No bleep, it's been difficult. Hopefully he takes

134
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: advantage of a full, healthy off season this year. I

135
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: always love that one or he flew in the face

136
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: of the age of age in that it was fair

137
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: it was relaxed, it was calm, it was non confrontational.

138
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: Matteo at MJN designer and skull Underscore Doc. I found

139
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: skull Underscore Doc. Skoll Doc, Scoll Doc. I personally think

140
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: it's bad faith to compare a season in which he

141
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: was injured all year to healthy quarterbacks. I'm treating jjm

142
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: jjm JJ as a sample that didn't tell us a

143
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: whole lot, and next year is going to reveal what

144
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: we need to know again, Skull Underscore Doc. Not looking

145
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: for big names with these comments, Calm, relaxed, seemingly fair,

146
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: non confrontational yours truly not looking for ballyhood names with

147
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: these opinions. Just level headed analysis of a first round

148
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: quarterback who I am very much glad is on the team.

149
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: Nine to noon is a joint operation. Level headed analysis

150
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: of a first round quarterback who we are very much

151
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: glad is on the team. Is it a we I

152
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: am glad he's on the team. Oh? Oh, comma comma.

153
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 3: But I'm moving forward by faith that the coach knows

154
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 3: what he wants in that spot and that the move

155
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 3: we ultimately do see will tell us all we need

156
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 3: to know about twenty twenty six and beyond.

157
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: For JJ m yell it. For those that are twenty

158
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 1: twenty six, you got to yell it.

159
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: For those that are frustrated with shut up, formed, shut up.

160
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: And don't ever come back.

161
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 3: For those that are frustrated with what they saw that

162
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 3: I believe that they are valid in that those that

163
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 3: want more than ten starts, they are valid. And in

164
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 3: a world where you got to be piping hot or

165
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 3: absolute zero ice cold, I'm sitting in mild salsa tater

166
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 3: todd hot dish land saying the move that the coach

167
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 3: ultimately makes will tell me everything that I need to

168
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 3: know about what twenty twenty six is going to look like.

169
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: For JJ McCarthy, it's very fairly laid out by mad producer.

170
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 3: That's boring though, sitting on the fence producer of nine

171
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: to Noon, this is making.

175
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,960

176
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: that's our lot in life for a few more weeks,

177
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,120

Speaker 2: I hope so right, like you want to be excited

201
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 2: about it, but I think deep down, I'm pretty confident

202
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: in this team. I think they've showed it throughout, you know,

203
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: the prelims, into the quarterfinals, into the Semis, and they're

204
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: playing their best hockey right now. And I told Taylor

205
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: after the first game, I said, I don't really care

206
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: who you're playing, but if you guys are playing the

207
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: way you're playing, you have the goaltending the way it

208
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 2: has been, there's no reason why you don't have a

209
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 2: gold medal around your you know, around your neck in

210
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. And tomorrow's the big one. But

211
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 2: it's one of those games, you know, PA, you got

212
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 2: to show up. And hockey is such a funny game.

213
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 2: This is the seven game series, right, This is one

214
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 2: hockey game, one of the best rivalries in all of sports.

215
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 2: And what an opportunity for the girls tomorrow.

216
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: All right, hold on here, all right, it's gonna be

217
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: a second all right. Coven and Cleanup provided by I

218
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: dropped a nick on a person named Nate in the

219
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: opening segment Coven and Cleanup provided by Nobody. Because the

220
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: name is the name is Nate Heisey. And and and

221
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: here here's here's the question, mister p Fox, why have

222
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: you either never or briefly told us about Nate Heisey,

223
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: who daggered here the other night and is just a

224
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: few months from becoming your brother in law.

225
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 2: That's a great question, I think. I think that's the

226
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 2: way Nate Heisee would want it. If you were to

227
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: get to know Nate Heisee, He's a he's a pretty

228
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: low key guy, but he's a hell of a ballplayer.

229
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: And I think if you were to ask his head

230
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: coach TJ about Nate Heisee, he would say the same thing.

231
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 2: And he's a guy that is similar to Taylor. He

232
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: shows up every day, he puts the work in, and

233
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: he's a tremendous player. He kind of a six man

234
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 2: role there in Iowa State. And and you know, I've

235
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: watched a lot of college basketball this year. I've called

236
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: a lot of college basketball this year, and I think

237
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 2: Iowa State is the type of team that can, you know,

238
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 2: make a run in the march, and I think their

239
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: national championship good and they've proved it over the last

240
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 2: couple of weeks, especially beating go Ahead. What is that?

241
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: No go ahead? We had a we had a bad

242
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: connection there via the satellite. My fault.

243
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: Okay, I hope I got you here, But no, I

244
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 2: think I think they're a legit team, and I think

245
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 2: they just proved it. They'd beat number two Houston at home.

246
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 2: Nate had a huge corner three, a little catch and release,

247
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: no dip corner three to win that game there and

248
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 2: one an awesome player, what a good dude. And I'm

249
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 2: really cheering for the Cyclones in the march.

250
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: Parker, Parker, Parker, Pea Fox, I always love that one.

251
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: You're still there, Pea Fox? Watchabella gotomyia v ne vdv

252
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 1: G can't find Pea Fox. Was that a satellite breakdown?

253
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 1: Either that or he's turning my bit on me and

254
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: he actually has succeeded. All right, ev vdv G. Now

255
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:47,200

00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,560

Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the game is an earlier one though, pa.

274
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,240

Speaker 1: to see the Cyclones play games during the NCAA tournament

282
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: to make sure future Thanksgiving dinners go smoothly.

283
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 2: You bet, man, you bet. It's actually it's on the

284
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,479
Speaker 2: agenda to go catch a game at Hilton Coliseum before

285
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament even starts. That's a that's a gym

286
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 2: I haven't been to, and a lot of people rank

287
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 2: it as a, you know, a top ten type of

288
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 2: environment in college basketball across the country. And Ryan Hammer

289
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 2: just went on the record and said that was the

290
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 2: best game he's ever watched live as Iowa State took

291
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: on and beat Calvin Samson and Houston. Nate heisy quarter

292
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 2: three point four second release PA. I don't know if

293
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: you saw this on X or not, but Steph Curry's

294
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: average release time is about point six seconds, Kyle Korver

295
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 2: about point seven seconds. Nate Cotton made that thing in

296
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 2: point four seconds. Absolutely unbelievable.

297
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: Do you stick by a social media submission you provided

298
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: after Nate Heisei dagger number two Houston when you said

299
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,439
Speaker 1: Nate Heisey is the best shooter in the history of

300
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: Cyclones basketball. Fred Hoiberg, don't at me. I always love

301
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 1: that one.

302
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 2: It might be right. It might be. I think Tyres

303
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 2: Haliburton would have an argument there. George's niang. He can

304
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 2: shoot the ball too, But no, I love this, pa

305
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 2: I'll tell you I love this Iowa State team. One

306
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 2: thing I love in the March is elite veteran guards

307
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 2: and they have that in team and Lipsey he's as

308
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: good as they come. And then you have to have

309
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 2: a solid front court and their foreman, and Jefferson is

310
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 2: as dominant. He kind of reminds me a little bit

311
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: of Dawson Garcia the way he plays. He can stretch

312
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: the floor and he can do it inside. And then

313
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: you add pieces around them and Nate and they have

314
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 2: this toy A kid. He's a French freshman and he's

315
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 2: absolutely electric off the bench. So they have a lot

316
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,959
Speaker 2: of really good pieces, and I think there are two

317
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 2: that is going to make a late run into March,

318
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 2: hopefully into April, and hopefully he's got some family tickets.

319
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind being a plus one at the final.

320
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: Four either, pa Hey Pete Box. How many Olympic events

321
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,719
Speaker 1: or how much of the Olympics outside of men's and

322
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 1: women's hockey, Like, how much have you followed or watched

323
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: from Cortina, Milan or whatever.

324
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've watched a lot. I've tried to keep my

325
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: iPad on watching as much as I can. Unfortunately, the

326
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: travel to Cortina is two teds. I think it's about

327
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 2: a six hour train ride to get up there and

328
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 2: actually watch anything. And then you know, tickets around here

329
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: to figure skating and speed skating are They're pretty expensive.

330
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 2: I don't have the comments in my bank account to

331
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 2: be spend at on those kind of events. But I've

332
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: had it on the TV and I've been watching and

333
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 2: to just hear the stories from Taylor and the relationships

334
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 2: screed she's created in the village with different athletes, and

335
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 2: they have this TVUSA house and I got to meet,

336
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 2: you know, some of the athletes there, and then you

337
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 2: in this bond and this connection you feel with them

338
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: and you want to watch them, you know, compete and succeed.

339
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 2: And and I'll tell you, I've watched more Olympics this

340
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 2: year than I've watched it a long time. And to

341
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 2: see these athletes at the peak of their sport, it's incredible.

342
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 2: I'm having a blast.

343
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 1: With with the bonds and connections that have been formed.

344
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,479
Speaker 1: Do you call yourselves the outer circle in that you

345
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: can't get into the Olympic Village, so therefore your inner

346
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: circle is via group dext you're kind of like the

347
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,199
Speaker 1: outer circle. You're OC, you're your outer circle.

348
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly. Yeah, we're OC. I like that. It's

349
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 2: gonna be my new nickname the rest of this trip. No.

350
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 2: I think you're right, Pa, it's you got to live

351
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 2: vicariously through the stories that Taylor gets to tell us

352
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 2: inside the village. But USA has done a really good

353
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 2: job of, you know, creating these kind of connections, right

354
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 2: the group chat. And then there's the Winter House which

355
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 2: is here in Milan, and all athletes have the opportunity

356
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 2: to go there and hang out, get some time away

357
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 2: from the village, and then families get guest passes as well.

358
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: Our first day in the the Winterhouse, we got to

359
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 2: meet Illiam mallin in, we got to meet Jordan Staltz,

360
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 2: we got to meet Amber Glenn. So Jake Ottinger was

361
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 2: in there as well because he wasn't dressing for one

362
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 2: of the games. So the opportunity to meet these athletes,

363
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 2: take pictures with them, converse with them is something really special.

364
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 2: And then, like I said, you form these connections and

365
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 2: you're cheering them on, you know, as much as their

366
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 2: family and friends are as well.

367
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 1: Say say us team USA women with Taylor, say they

368
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: win the gold tomorrow and say soon to be brother

369
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: in law's cyclones. When the when the NCAA tournament and

370
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: you're at Thanksgiving with the Heiseie family, will they establish

371
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: a power ranking? Which is more significant? And why a

372
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: women's hockey gold medal or a Division one college basketball

373
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: Cinderella one shiny moment national championship.

374
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 2: Wow. Man, that's a tough one. I'm going to have

375
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: to bring that up with their pairs with Amy and

376
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 2: Tony tonight. You know, take care of business first, right,

377
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know, I PA it's hard to

378
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 2: beat the Olympics every four years. It's such a special event.

379
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 2: There was actually a reporter after Nate's game that kind

380
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 2: of asked him a similar question. He said, you know

381
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 2: what was more important that that semi final goal or

382
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,239
Speaker 2: your corner three? And and Nate you know, answered his

383
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 2: corner three, which was funny. But I think they've done

384
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 2: a lot of winning lately, especially Taylor, you know, wenting

385
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: back to back Walter Cupps winning a world championship and

386
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 2: a gold medal here in Milan would be icing on

387
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 2: the cake with the cherry on top would be I

388
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 2: don't know where the final four is this year, but

389
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 2: hopefully we find ourselves there as well, and we're cheering

390
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 2: on the cyclones.

391
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: How did you meet Jason Kelsey?

392
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, just just walking around the concourse. You know, he

393
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 2: had no security there, there was nothing. He was just

394
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 2: in his USA hockey gear walking around the concourse and

395
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 2: people were going up to him and snapping pictures, and

396
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: so I snapped a quick picture with them, and then

397
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 2: you know, we get back to our seats and moments later,

398
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 2: I look over my left shoulder and boom, there's Jason

399
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 2: Kelce and Kylie Kelsey sitting about two rows behind me.

400
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 2: So I wanted to introduce myself to them as well,

401
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 2: but I wanted to make sure it was it was worthwhile.

402
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 2: There was only one zero at the time, so I

403
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 2: was kind of I was nail biting on the game

404
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 2: a bit. And then Taylor, of course, barrries one on

405
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: a little two on one rush and that felt like

406
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 2: my moment to go introduce myself. So I got a

407
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 2: picture with them and they were awesome. Man, they were

408
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 2: so grateful to meet, you know, different people, and they

409
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: were pin trading and the whole bit. And I think

410
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: they were really just there as fans, which is it

411
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,360
Speaker 2: is so special that the support that they have, especially

412
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,479
Speaker 2: for you know, women's sports here in Milan.

433
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,479
Speaker 2: We're sitting right behind him here in the stand. So

00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:50,320

00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 2: tell him thanks from the both of us.

452

Speaker 2: And I think as we're kind of getting here to

463
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 2: the ending stage's pa, we're getting to these gold medal

464
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 2: type of games. Uh, I think we're gonna see more

465
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 2: and more you know, celebrities and people and and I

466
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 2: hope Tom Brady's at the game tomorrow because that would

467
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 2: be a guy that he's high on my list and

468
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 2: in terms of celebrities that I would want to meet.

469
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: How just a couple of clothes here? How? How was

470
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: the Italian League basketball game last Friday? Oh?

471
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 2: So good? Yeah, I think I've always been a basketball nut, right, Like,

472
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 2: I've always been a nerd when it comes to all

473
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 2: things hoops. So you know, I'm an NBA guy, I'm

474
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: a college basketball guy. But I was always infatuated with

475
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 2: the euro League just because I had so many, you know,

476
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: guys that I played against that went over and played

477
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: in Europe. Daniel Turou former Gopher. He's playing in Israel.

478
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 2: Nathan Reavers, former Lakeville North player who played at Wisconsin.

479
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: He's now playing in Valencia, Spain. McKinley Wright kind of

480
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 2: still stint with the Timberwolves and he played at Champion Park.

481
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 2: He's in Dubai, Leandro Bomerow, He's you know, he's in

482
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 2: a Milan. So you have all these connections so you

483
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 2: keep yourself into the game. And that's next level. Man.

484
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 2: The fans over there are crazy. The loudness of the gym,

485
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 2: the chance, the flags, it's it's such an interesting environment

486
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: in Europe.

487
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: Is is cigarette smoking permissible in basketball arenas in Italy?

488
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 2: Not in the stadium, But the stadiums are so different

489
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 2: over here. Like you don't walk in the door and

490
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 2: scan your ticket. You walked through like a gate instant

491
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: scan your ticket and then you walk through the door,

492
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 2: and I think that the purpose of that is to

493
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 2: allow people in between quarters and periods and then have

494
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 2: times to go take a step outside and make sure

495
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 2: they get their cigarette in. But that's just the European culture.

496
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 2: It's a little different over here. But everywhere you go

497
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 2: you're either smelling cigarette smoke or something in the air. Man,

498
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 2: it's the European way.

499
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: I guess you could say, did Hillary Knight ever get

500
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: that record setting goal? Right?

501
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 4: Yet?

502
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 2: She's on a little bit of a slide, man. You know,

503
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 2: she's tied for first, so she's one goal away and

504
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 2: I think there's gonna be a big one for her tomorrow.

505
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 2: She actually just got engaged about an hour ago, which

506
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 2: is tremendous, tremendous news for her. She's on the path

507
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 2: trying to set the record. I think we would be

508
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 2: sixteen goals and what a special game it would be

509
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 2: tomorrow to do it her fifth Olympics, you know, wearing

510
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 2: the sea on her chest as team captain and going

511
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 2: against your rivals. I was telling Norto yesterday, this is

512
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 2: the this is the competition, this is the rivalry in

513
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 2: women talky, it's USA Canada and tomorrow I think is

514
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 2: gonna be a special one, especially for our team captain.

515
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: All right, lastly, thirty seconds you get it all three

516
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: to go for the men to win a goal. Sweden

517
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: today at two ten central. Tough tough bunch, this Sweden

518
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: group with mega NHL high enders Eric Sinek and Faber

519
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 1: banging away at each other to ten Central today. Are

520
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: you going to the game?

521
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be going to the game, but

522
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 2: I'm going to watch it at the Winterhouse, which is

523
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: Team USA's house, So I'm gonna watch it there. That'll

524
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 2: be fun. They'll have all the TVs on, they'll have

525
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 2: the you know, the speakers and the whole bit. I

526
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 2: think it's gonna be a really good game, Pa, this

527
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: is the Sweden team who's they got a lot of

528
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 2: high enders, right. I really like Petterson, he's a really

529
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 2: good player. But the one guy that I've really enjoyed

530
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 2: watching is William Neelander. He's actually with the same agency

531
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 2: as Taylor, so I know the agents. Well. I got

532
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 2: to meet his sisters the other day and he's he's

533
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 2: a tremendous talent. But like you said, this Sweden team

534
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 2: is their high end, so I'm looking forward to a

535
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: little bit of a wild matchup with Eric and quinn

536
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 2: Us and Bowlby and our guy Fabes. But I think

537
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a really good game. But I got

538
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 2: us win, and uh, let's go four to three tonight

539
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,280

00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 4: You know what, we're all fine. We're really disliking the

560
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 4: weather these days. But we can't wait.

561
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 2: We can't wait for.

562
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 4: The sun to come out and spring to shine. So

563
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 4: but you know what, it's not like we're not used

564
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 4: to it. We did live in Minnesota for almost five years. Well,

565
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 4: it's all good.

566
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: Well, Bruce, coach Boudreau obviously honored to have you on

567
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: the radio show to discuss Olympic hockey and much more.

568
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: But what's mildly surprising is your beloved Canadian hockey squad

569
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: is playing Checkia right now. And it took them all.

570
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: Took them all of two minutes and five seconds to

571
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: take a one zero lead on a CHECKI a turnover.

572
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: Holy calcan these Canadians skate.

573
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 4: It's going to be quite a game. I think the

574
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 4: Canadians like, I mean, look at it's the dream. The

575
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 4: dream scenario is the Americans playing against Canadians because we're

576
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 4: all so vividly remember the four Nations thing last year

577
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 4: and how exciting it was, and I think both both

578
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: teams that are so pumped up about this. There's nobody's

579
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 4: taken anything easy, nobody's going through the motions. Uh, it's

580
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 4: it's I really hope it ends that way because I

581
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,479
Speaker 4: think it'll be great, absolutely great for the game.

582
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: Are you watching Canada Chechio while you chat with us?

583
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 4: No, I'm gone to another room because then I forget

584
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,280
Speaker 4: what you say, Paul and be focused on the game.

585
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,479
Speaker 4: I can't do that. I gotta go to an the room.

586
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure you'll see the highlight later. But the

587
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: first goal of the game was a McKinnon drop pass

588
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: to Celebrini. Oh my heavens was I'm not McKennon McDavid.

589
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: McDavid with a drop pass to Celebrini. Celebrini's nineteen years old?

590
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:18,720
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me with this? Bros?

591
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 4: This kid is going to be so good. Like I mean,

592
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 4: you know, you hate to put titles on everybody, but

593
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 4: I remember Sidney Crosby at eighteen and nineteen years old,

594
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 4: and this is Celebrini. And in twenty years, when everybody

595
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 4: else is retired, we're going to be talking about Celebrini

596
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 4: as is he you know, in the top five players

597
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 4: in history type thing like, I mean, I think that's

598
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 4: where this kid is headed. He's just one of those

599
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 4: generational players that is a real generational player that you

600
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 4: get every so often. Not a great player, not a good,

601
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 4: but one player that stands above the rest. And I mean,

602
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 4: unless his career path takes a complete change, this is

603
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 4: where I see him going.

604
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,760
Speaker 1: How how much do you love Olympic hockey?

605
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,720
Speaker 4: Oh man? I mean, I think playing for your country

606
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 4: is the most exciting thing in the world. I mean,

607
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 4: you think how hard these guys are going in any event,

608
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 4: in any sport, and it's not for money, it's just

609
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 4: for the for love of country and love of winning

610
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 4: for your country. And I love it. I was lucky

611
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:39,359
Speaker 4: enough to coach a team Canada in a tournament and

612
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 4: I told the guys, I said, listen, just tell me

613
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 4: where it is. I'll walk there in Europe to get there. So,

614
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 4: I mean, to put on your country's jersey to me

615
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 4: is an amazing thing and it's something you grow up hoping.

616
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 4: And I know I know both the American team and

617
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 4: the Canadian team feel the same way. So it's going

618
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 4: to be great. Hopefully they get together in the final.

619
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: Bruce Boudreau, former Wild coach, elite analyst for NHL Network

620
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 1: These Days nine to now.

621
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 2: Uh.

622
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 1: Now, are you familiar with a podcast called Hockey Lifers.

623
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 4: Yes, I am, okay, we're gonna have to get you

624
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 4: on it.

625
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you might want to wait a couple of weeks.

626
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: We can talk about that later anyway.

627
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 2: Did I well controversy.

628
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,359
Speaker 1: No, that's great, we can talk about that later too. Now,

629
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: so on that podcast where you're the co host, did

630
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: you pick Canada to win the gold because you are

631
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: a Canadian citizen and might be you were concerned that

632
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: that you would be you would be called a trader

633
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: for not choosing Canada to win the gold? Is that

634
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: the reason you chose Canada? Or do you just think

635
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:51,919
Speaker 1: they're that good?

636
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,280
Speaker 4: I think it was in the back of my mind,

637
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 4: you know, because it's funny when you talk about the

638
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 4: Hockey Lifers. At one point, I forget what we were

639
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 4: talking to about a week ago. It's Tjoshi and I said, well,

640
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 4: I use the term we as going to do something

641
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 4: special at the Olympics, And I had ten phone calls

642
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 4: within twenty minutes from friends in Canada saying are you American?

643
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 2: Now?

644
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 4: Are you American, I was going well and I had

645
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:30,320
Speaker 4: to defend myself. So I mean, I think being a Canadian,

646
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 4: you're a proud Canadian, you want them to win. But

647
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,240
Speaker 4: at the same time, living in America for since nineteen

648
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 4: eighty nine, I'm sort of Americanized pretty well too.

649
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 2: So I want, I just want.

650
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 4: A great game. And I mean, this is the crappy

651
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 4: way of saying it, but I mean in the end,

652
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,360
Speaker 4: you'd like to be Canadians are always the underdogs in

653
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 4: the world, so I mean, I'd like to like to

654
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 4: see them win.

655
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: How are the Canadians underdogs in the world.

656
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 2: Well, not in hockey.

657
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 4: We're America's little brother, you know, Like I mean, we're

658
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 4: the if we if like I mean, in almost any

659
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 4: sport except hockey, we would be the underdogs if we

660
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 4: were playing against the Americans, I think.

661
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 1: So you said, okay, so you said, you know when

662
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,760
Speaker 1: you're like giving USA a chance to win the Gold

663
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: And we got the Hockey Lifers podcast, which which is

664
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: really really good. I listened to part of an episode

665
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: this morning. Bruce Boudreaux is the co host, and you said,

666
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: you got ten calls from your Canadian friends, like Gabby,

667
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: what are we doing here? Was one of them? Perchance

668
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 1: Gilbert Perout did? Did Jilbert peroaut give you a call?

669
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: No?

670
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 4: These were all guys that I grew up with, and

671
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 4: they were just adamant because like I mean, you turncoat,

672
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 4: you trainer was going, well, I got to go back

673
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 4: and listen to see what I said.

674
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 1: So it was it was quite wild, now, Bruce nicknamed Gabby.

675
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 1: In nineteen eighty you were in your third year playing

676
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: for the Toronto Maple Leafs. How much of a surprise

677
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: was it for you? Then when the USA beat the Soviets, well.

678
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,760
Speaker 4: You know, it was an absolute surprise. But here's the thing,

679
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 4: if you got a minute, Like, first of all, I

680
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 4: was playing in the Maple Leafs minor league team, okay,

681
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 4: And that night we were in Binghamton, New York, playing

682
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 4: and we finished the game at about nine to thirty,

683
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 4: and we all raced across the street because there was

684
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:44,760
Speaker 4: a bar, and we all watched the game the Americans,

685
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 4: the Mircle on ice game at the bar, and I

686
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 4: remember it as clear as day as how exciting everybody was,

687
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 4: and the al Michaels call and everything else. But we

688
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 4: had just come from Canada, and we're Canada had lost

689
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 4: to the Soviets the previous game, and we were so

690
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 4: upset and we wanted the Americans to win, but we

691
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 4: thought no chance could they win. And for them to

692
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,439
Speaker 4: pull off that victory was amazing because we were all

693
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 4: we all got in the bus and we couldn't believe

694
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 4: what just happened. A bunch of college kids beat the

695
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 4: best team in the world. That would be like a

696
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 4: bunch of NCAA guys playing against the Canadian or the

697
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 4: American teams today and winning. Can you imagine, like, I mean,

698
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 4: that doesn't seem feasible the.

699
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,919
Speaker 1: Bruce the current USA team they hook Sweden today. Two

700
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: ten my time, three ten your time. How would you

701
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: qualify Austin matthews NHL career.

702
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 4: Unbelievable. His very first game he scored four goals. I

703
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 4: mean as an eighteen year old, So I mean he's

704
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 4: had you know, like every player, like I don't care

705
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 4: who you are, in any sport, you have years that

706
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 4: are absolutely great and then you have years that are normal.

707
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 4: But the normal years you feel like they're down years

708
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 4: because you've had the great years. And Austin has been

709
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 4: hurt for the last couple of years.

710
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 2: But he is.

711
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 4: Like, in to me, in the top five players in

712
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 4: the world, and he's so elite and I'll never forget

713
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,919
Speaker 4: playing him. The first game he played in Minnesota, when

714
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 4: he was with the Leafs against US, he made a

715
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 4: play and I remember looking over at the coaches and going,

716
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,799
Speaker 4: did you just see that? And because there was all

717
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 4: this talk about this young kid coming in and they

718
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 4: played Winnipeg the night before, and he knocked the puck

719
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 4: out of mid air and before it hit the ice,

720
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 4: he put it in the top corner and Dubnik didn't

721
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,840
Speaker 4: even see it, and I went, that is his most

722
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 4: amazing hands coordination goal that I've ever seen. I thought

723
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 4: of him ever since then, that he is that talented.

724
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 4: What he doesn't have, like if he had that outgoing,

725
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 4: really outgoing person like, he's so quiet that you don't

726
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 4: hear much about him. It's almost like Quinn Hughes, that

727
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,280
Speaker 4: is so great, but you know, they don't talk about

728
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 4: themselves in that so you don't get to see how

729
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 4: great they really are or know how great they really

730
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 4: are because they're not in the paper as much as

731
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 4: other people would be.

732
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 1: Oh, oh, Chechia with a goal. Gabby about eight and

733
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: a half. I don't want to, so you don't. Yeah,

734
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: it's I mean we're eight and a half minutes into it,

735
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 1: so you're probably probably missed the first half of the

736
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 1: first period because of this chat. Yeah, but you still

737
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 1: got still you've still got two periods and ten minutes

738
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 1: left to watch.

739
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,479
Speaker 4: Well, it's only it's my only fear, But that team

740
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,399
Speaker 4: is whether Jordan Bennington and you guys see him enough,

741
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,919
Speaker 4: I mean out there can can do it, because I'm

742
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 4: not sold on this guy, and I don't care how

743
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 4: good he was last year. I don't care how good

744
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 4: John Cooper says, how much faith he has in him,

745
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 4: I don't because I mean he is arguably, in the

746
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 4: regular season one of the top or bottom five goalies

747
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 4: in the NHL right now. So I'm a little worried

748
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 4: about push coming to shove, especially when check ya. You know,

749
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 4: they got past an Act and Nietzschez. They got some

750
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,320
Speaker 4: pretty good players on that team. So I'm a little worried,

751
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 4: but I'm confident the Canadians will come through in the end.

752
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 1: You you mentioned Quinn Hughes hughesy well, so doing NHL Network,

753
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: you'll watch it all and I know you stay in

754
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: touch with your beloved wild What do you like when

755
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 1: Faber and Quinn Hughes play together.

756
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 4: As a coach, I sit there and I feel very

757
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 4: confident that nothing bad is going to happen.

758
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: Wow.

759
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 4: You know it's like having that you're going out on

760
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 4: a date with your wife and you know you got

761
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 4: the babysitter.

762
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 2: That's really good.

763
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 4: You feel confident that everything's going to be okay when

764
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 4: you come home. And when Quinn Hughes in favor on

765
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 4: the ice, that's what I feel. I you know, if

766
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 4: I was coaching them and going everything's going to be

767
00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 4: positive for the next shift. Sometimes you get another defenseman

768
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 4: out there and not put him down, but say Matt Dumba,

769
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 4: I mean, and you would think that something great can happen,

770
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 4: but something negative can happen too. I don't feel that

771
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 4: when I see Quinn Hughes or Brock favor on a

772
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 4: paper on the ice.

773
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this right now, Gabby Bennington better get

774
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 1: his head into this game. Checkie almost took a two

775
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 1: to one lead man. This is very interesting. What's taking

776
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: place with the USA? Two ten, My time, three ten,

777
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 1: Your time in Sweden today? Oh boy, that that's Sweden.

778
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,280
Speaker 1: Team is high end. Holy cow, where where do you go? Ahead?

779
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 2: Go?

780
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, no, you're right, they're as good

781
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 4: as they get. Don't forget. In this poor Nations tournament

782
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 4: last year, Sweden was the only team that didn't lose

783
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 4: a game in regulation and they lost an overtime to

784
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 4: the US. And so, I mean, it's not going to

785
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 4: be easy, and I can I can say that right now.

786
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 4: So I mean, both all these these games now that

787
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 4: are going the team's better be at the top of

788
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 4: their popular game or they're not going to be playing

789
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 4: for the gold medal.

790
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 1: Uh. Juel ericson Ak, you had act right when he

791
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: came into the league.

792
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, one of my favorite all time players for

793
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 4: UH we we called him up our fourth line was

794
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 4: not very good, and we called him up from Sweden

795
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 4: at the end of his end of his career the

796
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 4: first year, and then I had him for two more

797
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 4: years after that, and uh, you just knew that this

798
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 4: kid was going to be one player that any coach

799
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 4: on any team would just love to have because he's fearless,

800
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 4: he's got a great touch, and he plays both ends

801
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 4: of the ice and and you know, I always find

802
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 4: it when I when I talked to all the kids

803
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 4: and or all the players, and that he's a really

804
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 4: good guy. So you're a really good guys. They're usually

805
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 4: really good players, I think.

806
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: So last one here, Bruce, appreciate your brother. When when

807
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: when you're coaching a team? All right, so it's the wild,

808
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 1: it's Vancouver, it's whatever. When when you get Anaheim? Whatever?

809
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 1: When when you get players back from the Olympics. But like,

810
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,439
Speaker 1: what's that like? Does it take them a little while

811
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 1: to reacclimate?

812
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 4: I mean, it takes them a little bit. Like my

813
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 4: big question is, like I mean, in twenty ten, I

814
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 4: was or the last one, I was in Anaheim in

815
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,839
Speaker 4: the Olympics, and I asked the players that came back,

816
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,799
Speaker 4: I said, do you want a couple of days off?

817
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,839
Speaker 4: Because they've gone through all this stress. So I mean,

818
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 4: but once they get back and they get back with

819
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 4: their teammates, it's they're a step ahead of everybody else

820
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,919
Speaker 4: because they've been playing at a higher level than even

821
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 4: the NHL is when it gets started again. So I mean,

822
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 4: they're usually better. It's and I like it too.

823
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 3: They may not.

824
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 4: Realize this, but when you play in the NHL and

825
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 4: you get sent down to the minor leagues. Okay, you're

826
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,479
Speaker 4: usually a little better than all the minor league guys

827
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 4: are right away because you've been skating at a higher pace,

828
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 4: playing at a higher level. And I think that the

829
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 4: Olympics does that for players because it's the players that

830
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 4: have been on vacation and that there. It takes them

831
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 4: a day or two or a game or two, or

832
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 4: they're sloppy in what they do and and but the

833
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 4: Olympians come back and they're ready to play right away.

834
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 4: And as you know, once this Olympic gold is done,

835
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 4: the games are starting right away, so there's not a

836
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 4: lot of time to rest.

837
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Wild are at the Avalanche right out of

838
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: the break. Hey, let's do this more frequently. Greatly appreciate

839
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,279
