164
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: segment of this for Cracking Weekly Fellas. I hope we

165
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: got our good sleep from last night coming off the plane,

166
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: and today was at least a day of productivity, if

167
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: you want to call it productivity, the one off day

168
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: we have in between here to get stuff done. I

169
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: think I got the oil change done. I got the

170
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: soup picked up with the dry cleaners. I have a

171
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: speaking engagement for a ZEUSA Pacific coming up, and we'll

172
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: see if there is time here for a haircut. How's

173
00:08:59,120 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 1: your Monday going?

174
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 7: Not bad? I got it.

175
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 6: I got a couple of chores that I gotta finish

176
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 6: getting done. I was a little bit late on and

177
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 6: I sincerely apologize for that to my wife and do

178
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 6: everyone out there, But no, so far, so good.

179
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 8: I came home to a kitchen full of coolers and

180
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 8: freezer bags because I have a fridge that is no

181
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 8: longer in order, but got to get twenty one years

182
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 8: out of it, so I can't.

183
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 6: Oh no, wow, oh no, that fridge owes you nothing.

184
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 8: That's right, that's right. I thanked it, I you know,

185
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 8: gave it a pound on the back, and we're going

186
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 8: to put it out the pasture.

187
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: Hey, sales crew, fridge fridge endorsement. Al Konski's right for one.

188
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: Let's go. Let's go. All right, Well, where where where

189
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: were we? The Kraken have lost four out of the

190
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: last six games. But I mean, Fellas, I really think

191
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: context matters in this situation. I mean, coming out of

192
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 1: this back to back and we knew this was going

193
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: to be a massive talking point for the direction of

194
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: this sea. You face, Saint Louis, you were this close

195
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 1: to take in defeat and then rescue it from the

196
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: jaws of defeat, and then comes so close where to

197
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: the point you maybe got goal lead against Dallas and

198
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 1: with that a one and one split coming home. So

199
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: here's some food for thought on this and I want

200
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: to be careful because moral victories don't get your points.

201
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: But weigh in the scope of this weekend and this

202
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 1: happening now than say, versus in March. Would you rather

203
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: take a two and a weekend back to back yet

204
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: you're playing poorly, or rather are you taking one in

205
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: one and come out with a kind of effort they

206
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: got against Saint Louis and Dallas now coming home.

207
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 6: Well, Mike, first of all, you say they've lost four

208
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 6: of six. I say they have points in four of six.

209
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: Perspective perspective matters.

210
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's pert perspective for a second. I think I

211
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 6: understand the question that you're asking. But at the end

212
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 6: of the day, this is a result the business. I'd

213
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 6: rather have two bad wins than two perfect one nothing

214
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 6: losses or two to one losses.

215
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 7: You know, I do think that everything considered in back

216
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 7: to backs.

217
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 6: I mean that was the game against Dallas on Sunday.

218
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 6: I mean we're going on a year plus of the

219
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 6: losses in game twos of back to backs, and I

220
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 6: don't remember an effort ever like that in the second

221
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 6: game of a back to back. And I guess maybe

222
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 6: there's a little bit of solace there, even though you

223
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 6: didn't get the point from what we were told getting

224
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 6: on the bus and getting on the plane like that.

225
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 6: The team was very quiet and very somber after that

226
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 6: Dallas game, which I liked hearing because it lets me

227
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 6: know that they knew that they should have won that game.

228
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 6: They're not comfortable with just playing well. They want the

229
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 6: results too, So it was kind of a quiet flight

230
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 6: outside of a couple of small conversations and the obligatory

231
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 6: card game in the back. But I think guys realize that,

232
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 6: you know, the new standard is being set here in Seattle.

233
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 6: I think overall, for for what this team is and

234
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 6: where this team is, I would.

235
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 7: Say it's a successful weekend.

236
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 6: But to go back to the initial question, I would

237
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 6: have loved to have found a way to get one

238
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 6: point out of last night. I mean that that would

239
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 6: have just made it so much better. And I think

240
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 6: that's where the frustration lies.

241
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: I think going into the weekend, you know, we before

242
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: we get the news about Joey Decord, I think our

243
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 2: thoughts were, Okay, well, we've got these other two goaltenders.

244
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: They've got to play some games soon. Could it be

245
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 2: this weekend?

246
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 8: And then of course you get the news, you immediately assume, okay,

247
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 8: they're each going to get a game.

248
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 3: So despite the outcome.

249
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 8: Of the games, I think you can check a box

250
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 8: now that says you've seen Philip Gribauer and Matt Murray

251
00:12:55,240 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 8: both start games. Matt Murray with a nine percentage last

252
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 8: night and Grubauer with eight four to two in his

253
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 8: games or his game, both both of them playing well.

254
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 8: So I think we got the benefit of seeing both

255
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 8: of them this weekend because of the Joey to coord injury.

256
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 8: So I think that was good. I agree with Everett

257
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 8: that the effort that was put out in the Dallas

258
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 8: loss was I think the best effort in a second

259
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 8: of a back to back of all of the back

260
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 8: to backs we've seen since his team won a back

261
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 8: to back. So the effort was strong enough to win

262
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 8: the game, that the effort was strong enough to take

263
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 8: it to overtime. Unfortunately, as you say, Mikey, you got

264
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 8: goalie a little bit there. So I come out of

265
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 8: it with I'm happy that if you're going to lose,

266
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 8: you're gonna lose. Laying all your cards on the table,

267
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 8: and the guy certainly did last night.

268
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: See I brought this up on the other night here,

269
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: and we're noticing something maybe as far as period one

270
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: versus period two and period three. Everett, you talked about

271
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: this with Lane Lambert in your pregame conversation. But we're

272
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: sensing a pattern here, and I brought this up in

273
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: pregame coverage period two, period three. Previous four games combined,

274
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 1: the Crack can have allowed only twelve shots average twelve

275
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: shots period, period two, period three against Dallas the previous

276
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: night Stars seven shots in period two, seven shots in

277
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: period three. Guys are sensing a pattern as far as

278
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: how this team starts versus how things progress.

279
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 8: Well, I think the pattern is this team's down after

280
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 8: the first period in three of those four games. So

281
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 8: maybe the wake up call happens between the first and

282
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 8: second period and they come out guns of blazing in

283
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 8: that second. So you'd like to see that happen in

284
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 8: the first. But again, I think it's the it's the

285
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 8: identity of this team that they know that they can

286
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 8: play with any team.

287
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 3: In this league.

288
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 8: We've seen it already with some of the top teams,

289
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 8: and we saw it again last night despite the.

290
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 3: Eleven to one one record.

291
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 8: I think that the Krack can have with Dallas over

292
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 8: the last thirteen that the effort was strong enough to

293
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 8: be to be in the mix potentially come up with

294
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 8: a point.

295
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: Un firstly they didn't.

296
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I think so, and I am sensing a pattern.

297
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 6: You know, the team does.

298
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 7: Get better as games go along.

299
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 6: But I think with that with that same shot comparison,

300
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 6: they're allowing fewer shots, but they're also getting fewer shots

301
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 6: as well in third periods. And I think in more

302
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 6: more games that I had it written down, I think

303
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 6: five times this season now six times this season, the

304
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 6: Cracking have been limited to single digit shots in the

305
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 6: third period and they've had to they've had to survive

306
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 6: a push, and they've they've gone into you know, kind

307
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 6: of a I don't want to say a prevent defense

308
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 6: because they're not sitting back. They're still aggressive defensively, but

309
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 6: you know, you'd like to maybe see a little bit

310
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 6: more offensive push in the third period.

311
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 7: And I understand that.

312
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 6: You know, I'm going to contradict myself here because we

313
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 6: always say you only have to.

314
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 7: Win by one.

315
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 6: I get it, but if it's two to one or

316
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 6: three two going into the third, it would be nice

317
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 6: to find a way to maybe get an insurance goal

318
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 6: or put yourself ahead, give you a little bit more

319
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 6: breathing room, take some pressure off your goalies.

320
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 7: But this team, I do think.

321
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 6: Overall, has had a habit of getting better and playing

322
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 6: better as games have gone on.

323
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And I bring this up here to you as

324
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: well because this is something important to talk about because

325
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: there's a way to manufacture offense, and then there's a

326
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: way to try to maybe I think go as far

327
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: as forcing offense. And there's a difference here because how

328
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: do you look at if you're down, what you need

329
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: to do to find ways to generate versus say cheating

330
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: flying the zone and now you're leaving your own defense

331
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: and structure at risk.

332
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's not doing what you just said.

333
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: They're flying the zone.

334
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 8: But I think this team is doing a better job

335
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 8: of controlling the play with the puck. You see it

336
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 8: in the Afterton zone when they get some sustained offensive

337
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 8: zone time. We will start to see players changing out

338
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 8: one at a time to be able to get five

339
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 8: fresh on the ice while they've got control. You see

340
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 8: it in the neutral zone when they need to make

341
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 8: a change and rather than dumping the puck into the

342
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 8: offensive zone or putting a puck on net just to

343
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 8: get a shot on goal. They'll move it back to

344
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 8: their defenseman. They'll change out those three forwards and then

345
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 8: they'll come down the ice at the defense wan will

346
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 8: change you got five. So that puck control is a

347
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 8: big factor in being intentional about their offensive chances this year,

348
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 8: which you didn't see as much last year. It was

349
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 8: just go to earth and off they went, and they

350
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 8: attacked and it was exciting and sometimes they work and

351
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 8: sometimes it didn't. This year it seems to be a

352
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 8: little bit more of a controlled approach, and I think

353
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 8: that controlled approach can sometimes lead its way into okay, well,

354
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 8: let's look for the perfect shot on net as well.

355
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 8: I think it's finding that balance between that perfect play,

356
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 8: that perfect shot, and then also sometimes like the goal

357
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 8: last night, Ad Marshall just fired at hard on the

358
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 8: net works is flashing through redirection. It's one nothing, cracking

359
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 8: piggybacking on that.

360
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 6: That's huge because I think too, right, especially against a

361
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 6: guy like Casey to Smith, you know, who was just

362
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 6: money lights out last night.

363
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 7: I look at the Connor Hellibooks of the world.

364
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 6: I look at Dan Vladar of all people, right, the

365
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 6: guys who who've had our numbers goalies that you have

366
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 6: to put up, you know, a lot of shots against

367
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 6: just to get one or two goals. I think it

368
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 6: is having a shot first mentality. You don't need the

369
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 6: right shot, you don't need a perfect shot. I think

370
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 6: you just need to get shots through. And I think

371
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 6: both teams last night didn't show any signs of fatigue.

372
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 6: You know, Al said during one of the breaks, you know,

373
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 6: dare I say this is a playoff atmosphere.

374
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 7: I was like, I know it was.

375
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 6: It was like easy there, cheap roly in game was

376
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 6: it game third fifteen?

377
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 3: But that's what the pace felt like.

378
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 6: The pace did feel like a playoff atmosphere. But no,

379
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 6: I think you're beg on I about the shot selection

380
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 6: and about this team sometimes being a little bit too choosy.

381
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: I want to go back to the Saint Louis game

382
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: because this is where victory was made possible when Chandler

383
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: Stevenson scored with zero point five seconds on the clock. Guys,

384
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: this is where we had to give props to broadcasters,

385
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: especially like you, to be able to contain yourselves, to

386
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: just describe what happened in incredible fashion, to tie that

387
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: game because it was the latest goal in cracking history

388
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: to tie a game. That being said, NetFront presence also ed,

389
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: z oh, yes, we gave your props right there made

390
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: this thing happen. Jordan Eberley was at the front of

391
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 1: the net checking social media. It was a firestorm for

392
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: everyone arguing for or against goal tender air interference. The

393
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 1: caller from the situation room stands. As this video review confirmed,

394
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: Jordan Eberley and his actions did not impair Joel Hofer's

395
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: ability to play his position in the crease. Hoefer came

396
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: way out as far as you could get, maybe to

397
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: that red line outside of the blue paint. And of

398
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: course in the final minute of play in period three,

399
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: at any point in overtime as well regular season in playoffs,

400
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: hockey operations will initiate the review of any situation that

401
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 1: would otherwise be subject to a coach's challenge. This is

402
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: where Toronto comes into play. But guys, the moral of

403
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: the story of this is getting very close down to

404
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: the point where I'm tired of trying to break down

405
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: goalie interference. It is so subjective and it feels like

406
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: one call that goes your way today may go the

407
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: other way the very next day.

408
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 6: Listen, I was JT and we JT and we were

409
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 6: talking about this after after the game, and you know,

410
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 6: if we're gonna call balls and strikes, I could have

411
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 6: gone either way on that.

412
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 7: Clearly happy that it went the Krakens way.

413
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 6: But listen the goaltend your interference rule, it's it's so gray.

414
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 7: It's such a gray area. And Alan and I were

415
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 7: talking about this, you.

416
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 6: Know, how do you effectively determine goalie interference? And my idea,

417
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 6: I don't care if you have your left pinky toe

418
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 6: in the crease. If any part of the goalie is

419
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 6: in the crease and you touch the goalie without being

420
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 6: pushed by an opposing player, then that's interference. Boba played dead,

421
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 6: it's a penalty or something. But no, I think that

422
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 6: I see both sides of that play. You know, it

423
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 6: was already on that side. I don't think it. I

424
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 6: don't I don't think, in my opinion, I don't think

425
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 6: that Everly was there to It didn't disrupt the play

426
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 6: at all.

427
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 7: I thought the puck was clearly on its.

428
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 6: Way in before Everily even had a chance to get

429
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 6: the stick there. It wasn't like he was he was,

430
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 6: The shot was lowder, the ice was over the shoulder, right,

431
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 6: So I see it.

432
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 7: But no, I'm with you. The goaltender interference conversation.

433
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 6: We can spend an entire show talking about what is

434
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 6: or what isn't goalie.

435
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 7: Interference, But it was. It was one that went the

436
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 7: other way.

437
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 6: But I guarantee you twenty games from now, that same

438
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 6: thing's going to happen, and it's going to go against

439
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 6: the Kraken and we're going to be on here spitting

440
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 6: firestone for the exact same reason.

441
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 3: Well not only that.

442
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 8: Too, but you know, we have the benefit of seeing

443
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,479
Speaker 8: the slow mow replace And when you look at the

444
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 8: overhead cam of that shot, everybody's got his back to

445
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 8: the goal and he spins around, I think, to get

446
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 8: out of the way of the shot, like he had

447
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,719
Speaker 8: nothing to do with. Maybe I'll clip the goalie stick

448
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 8: and try and interfere with him. It wasn't that it

449
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 8: was spinning around. And to be able to catch the

450
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 8: inside of your heel on the toe of the blade

451
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 8: of the goaltender stick, that that's unintentional contact. Yes, you

452
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 8: know when you see top and you see gloves and

453
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 8: pushes and shoulders and that's a very different situation. Doesn't

454
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 8: mean it wouldn't be called. I still think it was

455
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 8: a fifty to fifty call. But when you look at

456
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 8: that and you say was it intentional?

457
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 3: No?

458
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 8: Was he trying to get out of the way, Yes,

459
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 8: I think that had a lot to do with how

460
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 8: they ended up calling it a goal.

461
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: And listen, we will gladly explain goals under interference each

462
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: and every day. We're trying to course educate new hockey

463
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: fans here. But folks, again, this is the most subjective

464
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: rule in the rule book here. Let's just get this

465
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: one thing clear.

466
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 7: Like I said, listen, you're a goalie.

467
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,479
Speaker 6: You put any any part of your body is touching

468
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 6: the blue paint, black and white.

469
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 7: Blow it dead, don't care.

470
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 3: Move on.

471
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 7: I'm tired of all these ten.

472
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 6: Minute reviews in game twenty of the season that don't matter.

473
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 3: Just what I'm going to fix it, Just take it

474
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 3: all out. There is no goal out right.

475
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 1: Hey, listen, we can only hear tell me something good

476
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: on loop over and over and over. When it gets

477
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: to be like the third like loop of the song,

478
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: we know what's going on too long? Now, that's not

479
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 1: Why don't we talk about Berkeley Catton, who is now

480
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: here for ten games, and we presume, going on now

481
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: eleven the first year of his contract officially has kicked

482
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: in which many people now presume, Okay, he's good to

483
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: go now, Well, not so fast yet, we're gonna hear

484
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: that confirmation maybe maybe not here, whether he has been

485
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: told to go officially get an apartment now. There is

486
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: still more of a chance here to give him an

487
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: AHL conditioning stint where he could get more playing time,

488
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: play further up the lineup consistently, and then also the

489
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: World Juniors right around the corner for him. But what

490
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 1: have we learned about about Berkeley Catton so far through

491
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: ten games, and maybe how long he could be staying

492
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: here added to where he fits in this lineup?

493
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 6: I think for me, you know, it goes back to

494
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 6: what we said last week, and I don't think my

495
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 6: position has changed. I think that he has shown that

496
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 6: he can play in this league. You know, now again,

497
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 6: am I ready to put him on my top line

498
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 6: eighty two nights a year?

499
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 7: Probably not, But I.

500
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 6: Mean he he has earned a place in the lineup

501
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 6: wherever that place is in the lineup. I still think

502
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 6: that every game we see another good piece of his game.

503
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 6: We see another step taken in terms of his maturation

504
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 6: to becoming you know, an NHL.

505
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 7: You know, a good NHL player.

506
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 6: And I don't think there's been any glaring holes, at

507
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 6: least for me in his game outside of the typical

508
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 6: nineteen year old mistakes that he's going to make. Having

509
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 6: played only ten games in the NHL. I'm not gonna.

510
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna to harp and kill the kid because

511
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 6: he serves up a pizza through the middle that would

512
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 6: have easily gotten through in juniors. Right, You're still trying

513
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 6: to learn this game, You're trying to learn the speed.

514
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 6: So I don't have any problem with it. I think

515
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 6: I like him here, and you're right, you get him

516
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 6: the World Juniors. But just because he goes to World

517
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 6: Juniors doesn't mean that you can't get him back. He

518
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 6: can go to World Juniors and then come back here.

519
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 6: He doesn't always have to go back to Spokane. But

520
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 6: I think that that he's fine here. He's playing well,

521
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 6: and until I think there is there is an obvious

522
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 6: gap or an obvious drop off in his game, I mean,

523
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 6: keep sending him out there.

524
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 1: Alt this up for you in just the fact that

525
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: he was on the ice for Chandler Stevenson's game tying goal.

526
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: Now you earn the trust of Lane Lambert, who you

527
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: got to earn a lot of trust in those key situations.

528
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,640
Speaker 1: That says a lot. Where Berkeley Catton is getting high

529
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: leverage ice time to go out there for a game

530
00:26:59,080 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: tying goal.

531
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 8: Well, not only was he out there for that game

532
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 8: time goal in Saint Louis, he was out there in

533
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 8: the last couple of minutes of the Dallas game as well.

534
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 8: So clearly Lane Lambert believes this is a guy that

535
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 8: could be a difference maker when you're when you're looking

536
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 8: for a goal late in the game. But Mike, your

537
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 8: question was, what have we learned about Berkeley Catton. Well,

538
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 8: we already knew he was a fantastic hockey player. We

539
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 8: already knew he was worthy of of of the pick

540
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 8: that the Kracken made in the in the in the

541
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 8: first round for him.

542
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 3: I think what we're.

543
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 8: Learning is that as good as he is, he's still

544
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 8: got some growing, some growth He's got to grow into

545
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 8: becoming an NHL player. Well, you can't do that in Spokane.

546
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 8: You probably can't even do that at World Juniors. As

547
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 8: the lead as that hockey is, you've got to play.

548
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 8: And I think that's why we're going to see him

549
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 8: here for the majority of the rest of the season.

550
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 6: And I will I'll say this too, you know, I

551
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 6: think we're all we're all acting like World Juniors is

552
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 6: a foregone conclusion.

553
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 7: The Kraken control.

554
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 6: Ye wait, right, so Berkeley Catton because of he's earned

555
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 6: it or because of injuries and they have no choice

556
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 6: but to play him every night. We get to World

557
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 6: Juniors and Berkeley Catton has played thirty games? How many

558
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 6: games we have left to the Worlds?

559
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 7: Right?

560
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 5: Like?

561
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 6: I mean, if I'm the Kraken, am I like? Do

562
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 6: I really want to send him to Worlds.

563
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 7: For four weeks and do all that?

564
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 6: Look at what happened to Matthew Shaeffer last year, right,

565
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 6: kid breaks his leg and he's out.

566
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: For uh, we don't know how long. Jared McCann's gonna

567
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: be out, and Freddi Goodrou is still quite a ways away.

568
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,360
Speaker 6: Absolutely, so I think that we're sitting here thinking that

569
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 6: World Juniors is a foregone conclusion. I think the Kraken

570
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 6: would like to give him that opportunity. I think he

571
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 6: would like that opportunity. But you know, there's no guarantee

572
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 6: that Berkeley Catton is gonna be playing in Worlds this December.

573
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 6: They could say, hey, kid, we need you here, and

574
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 6: we only have four days off for Christmas. Go home,

575
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 6: take a break, get your books in town, do something.

576
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 6: Uh but but we need you ready for for games

577
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 6: in January.

578
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: Here's one guy the crack and would love to really

579
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: get going, but he showed some pretty impressive signs that

580
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: he's perhaps getting it in gear. And that's Mason Marchman

581
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: against Dallas from the other night. And here's Mason march

582
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: Mitt and his reaction after the game meeting with the media.

583
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 9: Good to get the you know, some juices going again

584
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 9: and you know, you know, maybe prove them wrong or whatever.

585
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 9: But uh yeah, just I thought our team played a

586
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 9: good game, and we competed all night and Murray played

587
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 9: awesome probably huge save, so you know it's a tough loss,

588
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 9: but uh, you know we can build off that for sure.

589
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 6: What's up?

590
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 7: Did you think you might have had one time goal there?

591
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 3: Yeah?

592
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, I just tried to get it off quick and

593
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 9: low and uh fivefole and he came across his legs closed,

594
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 9: so it was a great say by case Sar.

595
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: So it was pretty apparent that Mason Marchmant was very,

596
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: very motivated to face his former team. He told us

597
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: he had this date circle on the calendar way back

598
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: in the preseason at media Day. But one goal right

599
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 1: now in fourteen games. How what can we take away

600
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: from the Dallas game that Mason Marchmant needs more of

601
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: consistently here moving ahead?

602
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think we saw his best game

603
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 3: to date. Hands down. We saw what I think.

604
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 8: The Kraken expect to get out of Mason Marshmot. He

605
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 8: had four hits in the game, He had four shots

606
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 8: on goal. You heard of him talking about that opportunity

607
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 8: to get one there. He was involved during the play,

608
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 8: he was involved after the play. He was getting in

609
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 8: guys faces, like without taking penalties. I think that's the

610
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 8: sand papery Mason Marchman. It was some offensive power guy

611
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 8: that we're looking to see every game going forward.

612
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think for me, you know, not trying

613
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 6: to go uh full Bob Staffer here.

614
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 7: For the Edmonton Oilers.

615
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 6: And if you don't know what I'm talking about, go

616
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 6: on the Oilers Daily onto Yeah, find Bob.

617
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 7: Just search Bob Stoffer.

618
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 1: He burned my phone up by the way, trying to

619
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: listen to that. Yeah, I need a new phone now.

620
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 6: So not trying to go full Bob Stoffer, but I

621
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 6: think we've seen that he's capable of playing at this level,

622
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 6: like Al said, and I think that, you know, if

623
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 6: I'm being honest, I felt like, you know, he's got

624
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 6: he's got more to give, right, And we saw what

625
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 6: he can do and what he's capable of, and I'm

626
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 6: with you, that was his best game to date for

627
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 6: the cracket this year.

628
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 7: So I think if if we can see him continue.

629
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 6: To play that way, you know, being hard, going to

630
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 6: the dirty areas and not you know, not not scoring

631
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 6: and and and contributing to the offense, I think you're

632
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 6: gonna you have a good player in Mason Marshman. And

633
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 6: I'm hoping that that game unlocked a big piece of

634
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 6: his game moving forward.

635
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: We have the home stand coming up here where are

636
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: the Crack and we'll face a Columbus Blue Jackets tomorrow night,

637
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: Winnipeg's second matchup of the season San Jose as well

638
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: on Saturday, and we're gonna hear from Dan Ruzanowski in

639
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: our conversation in just a little bit of course, long

640
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: time Hall of Fame radio voice for the Sharks on

641
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: that side. But if there's one thing I think we

642
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: learned again we touched on this earlier from last home stand,

643
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: applied for this homestand the Kraken back home in their

644
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: own home building in front of a very very boisterous crowd.

645
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: You've got to start fast.

646
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I think I think that's that's gonna be key.

647
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 3: Right.

648
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 6: The Kraken finally won a game this season when they've

649
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 6: allowed the game's first goal, so scoring first is key

650
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 6: for Seattle. They got the four to three overtime win

651
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 6: in Saint Louis and that was their first win of

652
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 6: the season, win trailing, you know, won nothing, So you.

653
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 7: Have to start fast.

654
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 6: The schedule for the kracking, you know, we talked about

655
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 6: how it's a lot easier in uh in November rather

656
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 6: than then maybe it will in October.

657
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 7: But you're getting to.

658
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 6: A pretty difficult portion of the schedule coming up.

659
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 7: You know, You've got this this homestand.

660
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 6: Now you go on the road for four games out

661
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 6: East against you know, competition that are I would say,

662
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 6: in the same sandbox as you. But then you come

663
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 6: back home, and you've got a couple against Edmonton. You've

664
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 6: got I want to say, Utah's in there, la Anaheim

665
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 6: are in there. I think there's a Vancouver in there.

666
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 6: Maybe all of those games coming up before Christmas. So

667
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 6: you've got some pretty big games coming up before the

668
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 6: Christmas break. So over these next four weeks three weeks,

669
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 6: you want to try to bank as many of these

670
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 6: points as possible and starting fast. Winning your home games

671
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 6: are going to be a pretty you know, good good

672
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 6: way to do that.

673
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, And I think that you see above, the play

674
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 8: of Mason Marshman can factor into that. I think that

675
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 8: what we talked about with goaltending. If we're not going

676
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,239
Speaker 8: to see Joey Decord for a while, we don't know,

677
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 8: But if we're not, then the way Matt Murray played

678
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 8: last night and the way Grubauer played, I think that's

679
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 8: going to factor into the success as team can have

680
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,279
Speaker 8: between now and Christmas.

681
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: All right to the Beacon Plumbing Hotline, we go. Always

682
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,720
Speaker 1: a pleasure to have him with us. Hall of Fame

683
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: radio voice Dan Ruzanowski of the Sharks Audio Network. Dan,

684
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: good to see you a few days ago back here

685
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: in Seattle. Looking forward to the next one already here.

686
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: But I want to first begin just from the first

687
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: time that these two teams met. What surprised you most

688
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: may be about the Sharks start here to this season.

689
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 5: Well, I think that it's taken a little while for

690
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 5: all things to start to piece together. I think that's

691
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 5: been part of the story, and we have to keep

692
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 5: reminding ourselves how many different players are on the roster,

693
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 5: and that probably led to the somewhat slow beginning. It

694
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 5: was getting a little bit tiresome in San Jose, simply

695
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 5: because the last three years it's been really tough in

696
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 5: the month of October, and so there was a kind

697
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 5: of a feeling of, oh no, here we go again.

698
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 5: Very very quickly things started to dissipate in that direction.

699
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 5: The Sharks started to, you know, show what they are

700
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 5: made of. And I think that they're only right now

701
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 5: beginning to really feel that they're in a position to

702
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 5: have a home iice advantage, to make sure that they

703
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 5: can compete against anybody. And with recent results, I think

704
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 5: they've done a really good job against top teams, and

705
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 5: I think all of that is lent to the confidence

706
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 5: of the team. But then you throw on what Macklin

707
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 5: Celebrini's doing at age nineteen. You know, you usually look

708
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 5: at players and you say, Okay, he's a young guy,

709
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 5: and he's scoring a lot of points, right, great, well

710
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 5: most of the time, if you take a look at

711
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 5: it and you break it down between home and road,

712
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 5: usually that you know the young guy will get a

713
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 5: lot of points at home, won't score as much on

714
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 5: the road because they don't have the matchups, you don't

715
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 5: have the last change, and a whole variety of other factors. Macklin,

716
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 5: Celebrini's leading the National Hockey League and scoring on the

717
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 5: road at age nineteen, and that's just sort of testimony

718
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 5: to what he's meant to the team and how things

719
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 5: are clicking for him and how we're looking at the

720
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 5: development of a next great era of unbelievable superstar in

721
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 5: the league.

722
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: I remember having a conversation with you with Randy Han

723
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: when you guys were here, and I think it just

724
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: kind of shed more light as far as just the

725
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: potential he's got, but already how special of to start

726
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: that he is up to. So before we touch more

727
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 1: on that, I can't help but think after the winless streak,

728
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: you guys go into New York and get a game

729
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: into overtime, win a Celebrini hat trick five point game,

730
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 1: and then the win for instance against New Jersey, a

731
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: team that is rolling right now under Sheldon Keith. Was

732
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 1: there a specific game that you really began to see

733
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: the pieces begin to really fall into place it for

734
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 1: this team.

735
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 5: I'd say probably that road trip. I'd say probably that

736
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 5: gamer reference to Madison Square Garden is probably the best

737
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 5: example because in that amazing atmosphere, with that spotlight on

738
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 5: the team, the Sharks rose to the occasion. It wasn't

739
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 5: just Celebrini and we shouldn't, you know, we do need

740
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 5: to see his praises and talk about what he's meant

741
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 5: to the club and what he's going to mean in

742
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 5: the future, not only to this club but to the

743
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 5: game of hockey. But also you know, the players like

744
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 5: Will Smith and Mario Ferrero and Colin Graff, and you know,

745
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 5: I can go through the entire roster. Both goaltenders started

746
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 5: to play quite well. That was another thing too. It

747
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 5: took a while for both goaltenders to start to really

748
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 5: really click. And I think that game Madison Square Garden

749
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 5: was a big one because it was in the big

750
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 5: spotlight that they performed, and after that they had some

751
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 5: confidence and they said, Okay, we can do this. They

752
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 5: had a few other challenges. I think that you know

753
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 5: that that has developed, and you know that sort of

754
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 5: is blossomed really with the first meeting in Seattle where

755
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 5: you know, the Sharks. The morning of that of that game,

756
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 5: we're not expecting to play seven defensemen and eleven forwards.

757
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 5: They were expecting to play a standard six d and

758
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 5: twelve forwards. Michael Misa got dinged up in the morning skate,

759
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 5: so they called Vinnie Deharna and after you know, they

760
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 5: started really bag skating him and they said, well, you're

761
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 5: going to have to You're gonna have to in a

762
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,280
Speaker 5: little earlier because you think you might have to play.

763
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 5: He ends up playing really well in the penalty kill.

764
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 5: And I think that they were very prepared special teams

765
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 5: against that team, So every time they had something thrown

766
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 5: at them, they seem to respond to it and do

767
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 5: it with enthusiasm and accept that challenge instead of letting

768
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 5: the challenges get to them. And I think that's sort

769
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 5: of a description of the way the season is going.

770
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 8: Dan talk a little bit about the culture of this team,

771
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 8: the personality if you will. You know, from the outside

772
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 8: looking in, it seems like a bunch of guys that

773
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 8: obviously take their jobs very seriously, but don't take themselves

774
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 8: very seriously. They keep things light. At a chance to

775
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 8: be between the benches last night, and you know, it

776
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 8: wasn't just towards the end of the game when it

777
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 8: was certainly out of hand for the cracking, but you

778
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 8: could see it throughout the game. A lot of smiles

779
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 8: on the bench, you know, talk a little bit about that.

780
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 5: Well, I think that that's a big part of it.

781
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 5: You know. Larry Robinson used to always tell us back

782
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 5: in the day that one of the keys to all

783
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 5: of the Stanley Cup championships that he won, not only

784
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 5: as a player but later on the coach or a

785
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 5: member of management, was because they remember that it was

786
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 5: just the game and that they have to have fun

787
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 5: playing the game. And you know, Igor Larryanoff used to

788
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 5: always tell us, you don't work hockey, you play hockey,

789
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 5: and that's the side of it that you have to

790
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 5: remember about this game. That's really important. So you probably

791
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 5: saw that on the bench. They've got an element of that.

792
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 5: Of course, they've got prodigious talent to be able to

793
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 5: back it all up. But then again, behind the bench,

794
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 5: you've also got Ryan Warsowsky who understands this generation quite well.

795
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,240
Speaker 5: He's a very young coach in the National Hockey League

796
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 5: and he seems to get the best out out of

797
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 5: that group of people. And you know, we saw what

798
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 5: he's already done with Team USA and the World Championships,

799
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 5: winning a gold medal too, So you know that's another

800
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 5: factor that's important.

801
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: Dan touching on Maclin celebrating more, We've heard a lot

802
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 1: of the supplieratives already about the comparisons his game, But

803
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: what do you see right now with where he's at

804
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 1: in just his nineteen year old season versus say, when

805
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: he he could be, you know, peaking topping out of

806
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: say twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven years of age.

807
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 5: Sky's a limit for the kid. He can do everything.

808
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 5: He does it in all three zones, and he does

809
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 5: it with a joy about the game that's very infectious.

810
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 5: He gets people to follow him as he drives the

811
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 5: energy and the level of the team. When things aren't

812
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 5: going well, he plays with a great competitiveness to try

813
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 5: to get things back under control. And all of these

814
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 5: things are things that are just starting to develop. I

815
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 5: think just before we played, you know, we said we

816
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 5: had we played the game between the Sharks and the Kraken.

817
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 5: There was a back to back set of games against

818
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,720
Speaker 5: Colorado against Detroit where the Sharks beat Colorado on overtime.

819
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 5: Next game they were playing against the Red Wings, and

820
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 5: through that entire game, he and Maurit Sider had an

821
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 5: unbelievable back and forth, Batley going intensely at it, and

822
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 5: he just put his arms around that and absolutely loved it,

823
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 5: and his teammates loved it too.

824
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 2: You know.

825
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 5: Of course, he was doing that with the knowledge that

826
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 5: if things ever he did get out of hand. Number one,

827
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 5: he was showing Detroit that he wasn't going to put

828
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 5: up with that. But number two, he showed confidence that

829
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,840
Speaker 5: his teammates would would be right there to back him up,

830
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,879
Speaker 5: which of course they would be. So I think it's infectious.

831
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 5: I think it's I think it's fun, and it's spectacular.

832
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: When it comes to Will Smith, who has been you know,

833
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: along his side basically here for the last couple of

834
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 1: years and a big part of this score. I mean,

835
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: we've seen a lot of the skill that was on

836
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: display here for the first game between these two teams

837
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: in Seattle again. But you know, I kind of asked

838
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 1: a similar question previously with Mattlan celebrating, But is there

839
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,279
Speaker 1: anybody you've seen prior, whether it might be on the

840
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 1: Sharks or in the NHL that kind of reminds you

841
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:40,919
Speaker 1: of Will Smith in his game.

842
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 5: Not really. He's got a combination of a lot of

843
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,800
Speaker 5: different types of players. I think the biggest thing that

844
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 5: he has is an incredibly high hoy iq. He knows

845
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,720
Speaker 5: where the puck is going. I don't know how he does.

846
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,479
Speaker 5: He has sort of a premonition as to where things

847
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 5: are going to happen. He puts himself into a position

848
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 5: because he's able to buy more time for himself. He

849
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 5: makes himself appear faster than perhaps the actual reality is.

850
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 5: And I think that that's really important. But there's another

851
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 5: factor about Will Smith too that has nothing to do

852
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 5: about hockey, and that has to do with the fun

853
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 5: part we were just talking about. I think that Macklin

854
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 5: is just very serious, very driven, very into it, and

855
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 5: yes he's got a great personality, but Will brings out

856
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 5: the lighter side in Macklin, and I think Macklin brings

857
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 5: out a more serious side and Will So it's really

858
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 5: an interesting combination. You know, when you're trying to put

859
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 5: together a great team, every club needs a Batman and

860
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:34,959
Speaker 5: a Robin, and it looks like the Sharks have both

861
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 5: of those superheroes on their roster.

862
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 8: Talk a little bit about and I've read this, I've

863
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 8: got to believe it's true. But talk a little bit

864
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 8: about the living situation with Macklin Celebrity. I understand he

865
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 8: might have a roommate from a former Shark.

866
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 5: Well, it's not just Macklin, it's a whole group of

867
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 5: him now. So Macklin Celebrini lives with Joe Thornton, Hall

868
00:42:56,040 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 5: of Famer, somebody that also knew exacts actly how to

869
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 5: approach day to day life and knew how to enjoy

870
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 5: the game. Will Smith lives with Patrick Marlowe, which I

871
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 5: think is an interesting in combination. Joe Thornton was number

872
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 5: one overall, so he knows exactly what Maclin is going through.

873
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 5: He understands all the pressures. He played in Boston played

874
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 5: for the Sharks, always had the weight of the world

875
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 5: and his shoulders, and on the other side of it,

876
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,319
Speaker 5: Patrick Marlo was always kind of that second guy, even

877
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 5: though he was a you know, superstar. He's likely going

878
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 5: in the Hockey Hall of Fame too. He was always

879
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 5: sort of in the shadow of Joe Thornton is the

880
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 5: second overall guy, and Will Smith is sort of in

881
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 5: that area right now too, so it's really interesting to

882
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,399
Speaker 5: see how those guys have combined together. The third kind

883
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 5: of leg of that appears to be Michael Misa, who

884
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 5: now was eighteen years of age, I guess is spending

885
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 5: a lot of time with the Tyler Tiffoli family. So

886
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 5: you know, another veteran player who's been through everything. He's

887
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 5: won a Stanley Cup. And these kids are really benefiting

888
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 5: from the fact that their living situations are like that.

889
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 5: Think about it when you know, if I were nineteen

890
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 5: years old and I were out in the NHL and

891
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 5: you gave me a million dollars, I'd probably be dead

892
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 5: right now. But these guys are so, you know, such

893
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 5: great shape, pardon me, and and they're they're they're really uh,

894
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 5: they're really amazingly qualified. But they have that balance.

895
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: With these players, I can't imagine what I would want

896
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: to do at nineteen years of age with a million

897
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: dollars in anywhere I would want to live or anywhere

898
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 1: I'd want to go. It'd be a scary combination here.

899
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 1: But that's what but surety is for when you grow

900
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:32,760
Speaker 1: up here a little bit more, Dan.

901
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 5: I want to ask you about remember this. Remember this

902
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,320
Speaker 5: one thing too that it's really important to add to

903
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,760
Speaker 5: that is that, you know, we joke about a little

904
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 5: of that, but the truth is they are still kids

905
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 5: and part of them they are you know, you see

906
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 5: that off the ice, but on the ice they're total pros.

907
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 5: But you have to remember that, you know, the process

908
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 5: of becoming a full fledged adult is a is a

909
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,439
Speaker 5: sometimes like a stock market chart. You have some moments

910
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 5: where things go right and they don't. So it's great

911
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 5: to have people around you that show you the right way.

912
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,959
Speaker 5: I mean, the biggest thing for me is that number

913
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 5: one to Bee of Thornton, Joe's wife is an awesome cook,

914
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 5: Christina Marlow makes the food like nobody else. So they're

915
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 5: getting proper nutrition, and they're getting proper guidance with sleep,

916
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 5: and they're also getting guidance between with men that have

917
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 5: their own families, that care about their kids, that spend

918
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 5: a lot of time away from the rink with their

919
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 5: children and take that responsibility and I think that that's

920
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 5: just a great example for any of these people.

921
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 8: It sounds like there's a lot of focus on the

922
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 8: off ice stuff. What about the on ice stuff like

923
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 8: Jumbo and Marlow reviewing tape with them at home or

924
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,399
Speaker 8: they leave that stuff alone.

925
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 5: No, they probably do spend a little bit of time

926
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 5: talking about things like that with them, but I think

927
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 5: it's a little bit less organized when it comes to that.

928
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 5: You know, maybe if these guys ask them the question.

929
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 5: You know, both Joe Thornton and Patrick Martin were part

930
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 5: of the Sharks development staff and that's officials this year.

931
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,800
Speaker 5: With Joe Thornton, once he got into the Hall of

932
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 5: Fame and so forth, we used to call him the

933
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 5: director of Vibes with the Sharks. I'm not sure if

934
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 5: he still has that sort of unofficial title, but he's

935
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 5: part of the development staff. Patrick Martl is a development

936
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 5: coach and they spend a lot of time with a

937
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 5: lot of the young prospects in the organization. And you know,

938
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:23,319
Speaker 5: the way it's worked is, you know, they go back

939
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 5: and they might even talk to a kid that's playing

940
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 5: junior and watch him play a little bit. And we've

941
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 5: got another group of people, Tommy Wingles, Lucas Spik's people

942
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 5: that have had long careers that spend a lot of

943
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,520
Speaker 5: time with these young players. And even in the goaltending department.

944
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 5: You again, you to back office, the director of goaltending,

945
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 5: but they've got Ryan Miller out there scouting future goaltender

946
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 5: prospects for the Sharks. And I think that it's very

947
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 5: organized to make sure that they have the tools that

948
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 5: are necessary for these kids to succeeds. Yeah, they are,

949
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 5: and they you know, if I had somebody like that

950
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 5: to be like Yoda, you know, I'm saying that these

951
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 5: guys really understand what needs to be done, and you know,

952
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 5: they are also there for when things don't go well.

953
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 5: I think that might even be the most important thing,

954
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 5: because you know, they have to be reminded that yes,

955
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 5: they're going to have great careers, yes that you know,

956
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 5: they need to feel really good about themselves.

957
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: We have a Star Wars reference now checked and we

958
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 1: can also can say Patrick Marlow, I've mentioned here on

959
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 1: this conversation with Al Koniski to former Seattle Thunderbirds check

960
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: as well for that reference. Andrew Zanowski joining us here

961
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 1: on the Beacon Plumbing hotline, and Dan Last couple of

962
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 1: things before we let you go here. Yeah, check. I mean,

963
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: once upon a time the San Jose Sharks, an infant

964
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: organization coming out of the cal Palace looking to grow

965
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,720
Speaker 1: the game in San Jose, and the ninety two massive

966
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: Playoff runs. And now you have players like Joe Thornton

967
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,239
Speaker 1: from London, Ontario is ticking around, Patrick Marlow as well,

968
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 1: and the bakav that you mentioned, Tommy Wingles. What's the

969
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 1: what's what's the common uniting theme here with what has

970
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 1: now attracted players to stay and build a greater foundation

971
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 1: in San Jose, kind of like what the Kraken want

972
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 1: to be, you know, years upon years down the road.

973
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 5: It takes a long time to do that. And of

974
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 5: course you also have the added factor. You have two

975
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 5: things going on here. Number one, no offense to any

976
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 5: place else, but we really believe Northern California is the

977
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 5: best place to live in the world. There are the

978
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,319
Speaker 5: cost of living issues certainly that get involved, the cost

979
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 5: of housing, so forth and so on, but the facilities

980
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 5: are great, the weather is beautiful, and the one thing

981
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 5: that we've always said is that the guy's wives and

982
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 5: girlfriends really love it in Northern California. So that's all

983
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:40,799
Speaker 5: check marks in favor. But what you're talking about, too

984
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 5: is the development of the game. Scott Hannon, who's another

985
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 5: former Shark, another former Western Hockey leaguer, ended up he's

986
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 5: run now running the junior Sharks program, and so that's

987
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:54,400
Speaker 5: a real upgrade in terms of the total overview of

988
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 5: the coaching and working with the kids. I think that

989
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 5: the goal is to make the Sharks junior program here

990
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 5: stronger as time goes on. What's happened over years, and

991
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 5: what happens oftentimes with young kids is they get to

992
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 5: be about fifteen. This was the tradition in the in

993
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 5: the northern California area. You become really good and then

994
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 5: you leave. Well, now they want to make it so

995
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 5: that they can stay and you've got more people sticking around.

996
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 5: You know, you remember a few years ago, I think

997
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 5: it was one year, I can't remember the exact year,

998
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 5: but four people were drafted in the first round and

999
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 5: they were all from the Saint Louis area. Well, that's

1000
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 5: because of all of those guys that's stuck around to

1001
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 5: Saint Louis and now are coaching all these kids. And

1002
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 5: I think that that's the kind of direction we like

1003
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 5: to see things going here. Most of it still is

1004
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 5: with the you know, the NHL team's development staff and

1005
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 5: so forth. But you know, Mark Smith lives here. He's

1006
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 5: involved in coaching girls and guys in the junior Sharks program.

1007
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 5: Scott Hannon is here. There are a number of other

1008
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 5: people that have stuck around, and I think it creates

1009
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:57,800
Speaker 5: a great atmosphere for the future.

1010
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: Dan, you had the Jets schedule here obviously, so I

1011
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 1: mean we can't talk about what you've seen as far

1012
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 1: as when we have you know, this conversation translate into

1013
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: when it's going to go live and I'll kind of

1014
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: market here. But what's your general perception about the Jets

1015
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,439
Speaker 1: and about the kind of potential that they have again

1016
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:15,879
Speaker 1: this year?

1017
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:19,480
Speaker 5: Well, this upcoming group of games for the Sharks is

1018
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 5: a really important set of games, not only to keep

1019
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 5: going what they've got going right now, where they're playing

1020
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 5: pretty consistent hockey in which they're responding to challenges, getting

1021
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,360
Speaker 5: good goaltending, you know, getting better as the games go

1022
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 5: on and so forth, but they've also got to establish

1023
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 5: a really strong home ice advantage and they really need

1024
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 5: to do that. And I think that being able to

1025
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 5: do that against a team like Winnipeg, a team like

1026
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 5: Florida coming up. You got one team, Florida that's the

1027
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 5: Stanley Cup champion. But you've got Winnipeg, I think, is

1028
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 5: a team that's maybe the best team that hasn't won

1029
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 5: the Stanley Cup. I mean, they've got just about everything

1030
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 5: on their roster. Now, they've got Jonathan Taves there to

1031
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 5: provide some veteran leadership. You know, you've already got Mark Schifeley,

1032
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,879
Speaker 5: one of the best players in the game, our old

1033
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 5: friend Diyldon Devello, whom we like to see come back,

1034
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:10,359
Speaker 5: and you know, having such a successful career. And well

1035
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:12,399
Speaker 5: Connor Hillibuck, I mean he's going to be the team

1036
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 5: USA goaltender so in the Olympics. So I think that

1037
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 5: that's a big, big challenge. The other thing about it, too,

1038
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:23,200
Speaker 5: is they play a hard game. Both these teams in

1039
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 5: the in this homestand they play a hard game, physical game.

1040
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 5: They make you pay. Whether or not Matthew Kitchuk can

1041
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 5: play an off for Florida doesn't really matter. They come

1042
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 5: at you too. But Winnipeg is like that. They have

1043
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 5: strong team toughness and they're not to be trifled with.

1044
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,400
Speaker 5: So I think it's a big challenge for the Sharks

1045
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 5: to continue that development of home ice advantage and to

1046
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 5: make sure that they're you know, you know, sending out

1047
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 5: the message to the league that coming to SAP Center

1048
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 5: is a lot like it used to be back maybe

1049
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 5: as seven eight years ago when the Sharks were challenging

1050
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 5: for a Stanley Cup. They want to create those conditions

1051
00:51:58,040 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 5: again and the fans are looking forward to.

1052
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 1: That kind of has that similar feel of Thornton and

1053
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: Marlow again.

1054
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:03,480
Speaker 5: Dann.

1055
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: We appreciate the insight, keep up the great work. Looking

1056
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 1: forward to having you back up here once again, and

1057
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: we'll talk to you soon.

1058
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 5: Thank you, looking forward to seeing you guys.

00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 1: matchup of the season. They visit here Thursday. San Jose

1092
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:09,319
Speaker 1: Hockey Fights Cancer Night coming up on Saturday. Rematch from that.

1093
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,760
Speaker 1: When we look at the benchmark here, three games, six

1094
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 1: points on the table, four points out of six, are

1095
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 1: we setting that as the appropriate bar?

1096
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:21,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the way I see it, Mikey.

1097
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,839
Speaker 8: There's no reason why they shouldn't plan to have four

1098
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 8: of the six points, however they get it. But though

1099
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:29,719
Speaker 8: there's definitely four points in there this team can have.

1100
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm with al here, and I'm gonna even go

1101
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 6: a little bit further. You know, we're not We're We're

1102
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,839
Speaker 6: fifteen games into the season, so obviously there is a

1103
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,319
Speaker 6: ton of hockey left. And I'm not gonna sit here

1104
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,960
Speaker 6: and say that we are we are at the point

1105
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 6: of no return. But we're getting to the point where

1106
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 6: teams who aren't in a playoff spot, teams behind the

1107
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,959
Speaker 6: crack in, or teams who are out of it, they're

1108
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,880
Speaker 6: gonna have to start going on runs here. They're gonna

1109
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 6: have to start winning five in a row, six in

1110
00:54:59,640 --> 00:54:59,960
Speaker 6: a row.

1111
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,880
Speaker 7: So seven in a row. Si Anaheim, they're gonna start.

1112
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 6: Needing points in ten of eleven if they want to

1113
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 6: get back in it. If you're Seattle, obviously you'd also

1114
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,759
Speaker 6: like to go on runs. But if you can take

1115
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 6: four of every six points, if you can find ways

1116
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 6: to I mean, we hate overtime games, but these points

1117
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 6: are gonna be massive down the road. What are the

1118
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 6: Avalanche seven? One in five, seven to one and six.

1119
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 6: For all intents and purposes, the Avs are seven and

1120
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 6: six this season, right, So it's not like they're these

1121
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 6: world beating teams. So if the Kraken can find ways

1122
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 6: to continue like they have been doing, I mean they're

1123
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 6: four to two and two in their last eight games.

1124
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,239
Speaker 6: Yeah you know, yeah, they're two to two and two

1125
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,359
Speaker 6: in their last six. But they've got points in four

1126
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,399
Speaker 6: of their last six games. So if they can find

1127
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 6: a way to keep up what they've been doing, I

1128
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 6: think they hold down that playoff spot. I think they

1129
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:54,719
Speaker 6: continue to fend off the teams who are behind them.

1130
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 6: So yeah, I think four of four of six points

1131
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 6: this weekend, that is the absolute low bar for the Kraken.

1132
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 8: I think you said it well too, fits It's not

1133
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,440
Speaker 8: a lot of teams that have not started out well

1134
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 8: need to go on runs. But the Kracking don't have

1135
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 8: to go on the run, right, They just they just

1136
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,840
Speaker 8: have to play consistently and keep getting points here and there.

1137
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 8: Like you say, three games, get four to six points,

1138
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,479
Speaker 8: that's fine, you don't have to win all three. Keep

1139
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 8: playing that way, you're going to find yourself in a

1140
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 8: playoff position and.

1141
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 6: Try to avoid and try to avoid the stinker, right,

1142
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,359
Speaker 6: I mean, they're going to happen. I remember back when

1143
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 6: I was one of my old coaches said Everett and hockey,

1144
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 6: you know, every year you were always guaranteed to get

1145
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 6: blown out, but you are not guaranteed to blow someone out, right,

1146
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:44,879
Speaker 6: So there's always going to be a stinker or two

1147
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 6: that happens, but they need to be well timed stinkers,

1148
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 6: like for me, the San Jose that was your one

1149
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 6: stinker until January. Right, you can't have another six Monday,

1150
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 6: and you have them coming back Saturday.

1151
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 8: So exactly because of what happened in the last game,

1152
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 8: I would expect that might be the best game the

1153
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 8: Crack and play all week, even though they've got Winnipeg

1154
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 8: and Columbus as well.

1155
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,520
Speaker 1: That first period is going to be under a microscope

1156
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 1: coming up on Saturday versus what happened matplan celebrating is

1157
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 1: scoring over a minute end of the game in this

1158
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 1: first matchup here. Hey, speaking of guys, the San Jose

1159
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 1: Sharks are knocking on the door here for a playoff spot.

1160
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 1: The crack in in a playoff spot right now. Anaheim's

1161
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 1: lead in the Pacific Division. They won seven straight games,

1162
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,080
Speaker 1: Vegas tied with the Kraken, then behind them right now

1163
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 1: in the division, behind the Kraken tied for second. You

1164
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 1: have the Kings tied for them, San Jose one point back,

1165
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:40,760
Speaker 1: Vancouver one point back, Edmonton two. Calgary's in the basement

1166
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: right now. I mean, how many of these teams are

1167
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: on your Bengo card for the spots that they're in

1168
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:50,240
Speaker 1: from two months ago. But ultimately the biggest question is

1169
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 1: who are you most concerned about behind them going on

1170
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 1: a major run?

1171
00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,000
Speaker 8: Well, no, I mean you're right, Mike, And the way

1172
00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,959
Speaker 8: it looks right now isn't anywhere close.

1173
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 3: To where what we all find I mean, look at

1174
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 3: Calgary at the bottom.

1175
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, nobody thought that coming with Dustin wolf in the

1176
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 8: big contract he signed, and you know Edminton coming off

1177
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 8: of the Stanley Cup Finals, you just assumed they would

1178
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,440
Speaker 8: be in the top portion of the division, let alone

1179
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 8: the conference. So yeah, a lot of surprises. Winnipeg concerns me.

1180
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 8: Utah concerns me like Utah has been playing lights out.

1181
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 3: I think they might have.

1182
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,200
Speaker 8: Cooled off a little bit over the last kick couple

1183
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 8: of games, but they've been playing lights out. So yeah,

1184
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 8: Utah is probably the one that stands out to me.

1185
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, Utah Winnipeg both have lost three in a row.

1186
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 6: You know, I think for me, the biggest surprise is Anaheim.

1187
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 7: Eleven to three and one, they've won seven.

1188
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 1: Even then they're they're also eleven two and one since

1189
00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 1: opening night here.

1190
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's the crazy part opening that was here though. Yeah,

1191
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:53,120
Speaker 7: let's go.

1192
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,200
Speaker 6: So, I mean, I think Anaheim to me is the

1193
00:58:56,200 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 6: biggest surprise. Say what you want, you know that that

1194
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:04,320
Speaker 6: group I think is real. You know they I think

1195
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 6: they're gonna cool off a little bit, but I mean,

1196
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 6: I think Anaheim is again you're getting to that point

1197
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,959
Speaker 6: where they're banking enough points early.

1198
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:15,440
Speaker 7: On where you know they're not going to.

1199
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 6: Have to go on one of these runs that I

1200
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 6: was just talking about the team that scares me, and

1201
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,240
Speaker 6: that will continue to scare me.

1202
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 7: Or the Edmonton Oilers.

1203
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,440
Speaker 6: We've there back to back Western Conference champions, They've gone

1204
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 6: to the finals tiers in a row.

1205
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:28,880
Speaker 7: They have McDavid, they have dry title.

1206
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,800
Speaker 6: Goaltending, let's be real, non existent most nights in Edmonton.

1207
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 6: They are a team that outscores their problems. And as

1208
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 6: long as you have two of the three best players

1209
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 6: in the world, two of the four best players in

1210
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 6: the world, you can never write Edmonton off. They're two

1211
00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 6: points back of Seattle right now in the division. Vancouver's

1212
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 6: one point back, the Kings are tied.

1213
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 7: San Jose is one point back of Seattle.

1214
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 6: So I mean the one team that if I had

1215
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 6: picked one of those teams, it's still Edmonton.

1216
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 7: But yeah, didn't have any of this on the Bingal card.

1217
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Before we get out of here, let's get to our

1218
01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 1: three stars from this past week. I'll begin on this one.

1219
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 1: I would go with star number three, team defense and

1220
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: for their ability to lock matters down period two and

1221
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: especially in period three. This is a way they have

1222
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:22,560
Speaker 1: to play to give their goaltending a chance to keep

1223
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 1: them in games night after night, and they can't rely

1224
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 1: on goaltending to bail them out like other teams would

1225
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 1: have when you can go with top line star power,

1226
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 1: this is the way they have to play. It's with

1227
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 1: a lunch pail mentality and finding a way to keep

1228
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: the middle clear and get pucks eventually out of their

1229
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:43,520
Speaker 1: own zone and keep games low. Event Star two, I'm

1230
01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 1: gonna go there. I'm gonna go Philip Grubauer and things

1231
01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: didn't begin well for him in Saint Louis Akraken we're

1232
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 1: down two nothing, but you saw in the midst of

1233
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 1: this comeback the saves he made were very important saves

1234
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 1: to keep this team in this game, and I think

1235
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,600
Speaker 1: for that kind of game, that's what you're asking for,

1236
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:06,120
Speaker 1: to have Grubauer make the basic saves and eventually, when

1237
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: you have a high dangered chance, hope that he can

1238
01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,360
Speaker 1: bail you out. And I remember even before the Jordan

1239
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: Kyru goal, he was phenomenal one stop, two stop, three stops.

1240
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,200
Speaker 1: He was key, and the room recognized him for that.

1241
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 1: After that win in Saint Louis and Star one, I'll

1242
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,040
Speaker 1: stay at the same position. Matt Murray as well. A

1243
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:28,920
Speaker 1: lot of question marks heading into this season, but against Dallas,

1244
01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,280
Speaker 1: that against the kind of game that you're looking for

1245
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,520
Speaker 1: out of him. First period wasn't pretty and he kind

1246
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,240
Speaker 1: of guessed maybe in the Tyler Sagan goal, but he

1247
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:43,000
Speaker 1: was tremendous, shot after shot after shot. Period two, period three,

1248
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 1: he didn't face a lot of rubber likes say Casey

1249
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: to Smith, but again he gave this team a chance.

1250
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 1: And this is what the Kraken are asking for out

1251
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 1: of those two. When Joey Decord cannot go.

1252
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,480
Speaker 8: Well good next. My third star of the week was

1253
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 8: Mason Marchman. I think we saw his the best game

1254
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,640
Speaker 8: of the season and all he logged eighteen minutes of

1255
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 8: ice time, four shots on goal, four hits. He's got

1256
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 8: to play that way every game, and I hope that

1257
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,520
Speaker 8: he's getting a little bit of pressure from his linemates,

1258
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 8: from the coaching staff to say, you know, that was

1259
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 8: your best game. We want to see that every game

1260
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 8: going forward. Second star of the week for me was

1261
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 8: Shane Wright. The ot winner in Saint Louis was huge.

1262
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:25,800
Speaker 8: The tit a chance at the end of the game

1263
01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 8: in Dallas that if you listened to the call, I

1264
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 8: think Fitz thought it was going in. He was, he

1265
01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 8: was that excited about it, but it was It was

1266
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 8: two games in a row, almost tied it within seconds

1267
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 8: of the final buzzer, but Wright wasn't able to get

1268
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:39,800
Speaker 8: that second one. So he was my second star of

1269
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:41,919
Speaker 8: the week. And then my first star goes to Elli

1270
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 8: told And I know he's been on the schneid lately,

1271
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 8: but a goal to assist in the Saint Louis game,

1272
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 8: five hits for him in the Dallas game. He's now

1273
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 8: tied with ty car Cha for hits in the season

1274
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:56,480
Speaker 8: at forty. I'd like to see ty car Cha, Ellie Tolson,

1275
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 8: and Mason MARSHMANNT one two and three on that list

1276
01:02:58,680 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 8: for hits.

1277
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 7: My third Star the week is I'm gonna go Tanler Stevenson.

1278
01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:05,440
Speaker 6: I just think that, you know, again, you have the

1279
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 6: late game time goal in Saint Louis. He's average, He's getting,

1280
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 6: you know, Monday in Chicago twenty two minutes, Saint Louis

1281
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:14,560
Speaker 6: twenty one minutes.

1282
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 7: Dallas twenty three minutes of ice time.

1283
01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 6: He's your best face off guy, you know. I think

1284
01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:22,400
Speaker 6: he had a really good week. Even though he was

1285
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 6: only rewarded with just one goal in that week, I

1286
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 6: think he could have had a.

1287
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 7: Few more points. Number two, I'm going Tolvin and I

1288
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:29,720
Speaker 7: think I think.

1289
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 6: Et you know, after being elevated to the top line

1290
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:35,919
Speaker 6: and then dropped to the fourth line.

1291
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:37,720
Speaker 7: I mean, he's done a really good job this week.

1292
01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 3: Play still in the power play.

1293
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 6: He's rolling with the punches, and he had a really

1294
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 6: good week. I know we're only going to count the

1295
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,720
Speaker 6: four games this week, Chicago, San Jose and Saint Louis,

1296
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 6: but Tolvey's got points in four of his last six overall,

1297
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 6: so I mean, I think he's starting to find it.

1298
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:58,280
Speaker 6: And then number one, I'm going goaltending. I'm going Grubauer

1299
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 6: Murray my one and two. I think because Joey was

1300
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 6: out for the weekend. Hopefully, you know, by the time

1301
01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:07,760
Speaker 6: this airs today or maybe tomorrow, before the Columbus game,

1302
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 6: we'll have an update on Decord. Maybe Decord's playing tomorrow.

1303
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 6: We don't know right so hopefully we'll have to wait

1304
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 6: and see. But I think both those guys coming in,

1305
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 6: you know, on on two and a half week's rest,

1306
01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 6: haven't gotten a lot of game time to come in

1307
01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 6: and play the way that they did to give the

1308
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:29,920
Speaker 6: cracking a a win in Saint Louis and Matt Murray

1309
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,280
Speaker 6: giving Seattle every chance to win that game in Dallas,

1310
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 6: I mean cracking goaltending for the situation that they were

1311
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,120
Speaker 6: thrust it into there.

1312
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 7: My number one star.

1313
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 1: Well, because this is a podcast, we can go as

1314
01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:44,360
Speaker 1: long as we want. Is there anything else that you

1315
01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:46,440
Speaker 1: want to get off your chef to avoid doing chores

1316
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 1: here for the rest of the entire day, kind of

1317
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:51,560
Speaker 1: procrastinating delay the process here, anybody, I'll.

1318
01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 8: Add it to you know again column balls and strikes.

1319
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 8: As many good things that happened this week, I think

1320
01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:59,960
Speaker 8: an area that's still needing work is to face offsh

1321
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 8: base off continue to be on on the lower side

1322
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 8: of fifty percent. And I know it's something that the

1323
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:10,160
Speaker 8: guys work on every practice, but it's definitely factoring into

1324
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:13,120
Speaker 8: chances and even some of the outcomes of these games.

1325
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:14,840
Speaker 8: So it's an area to see the guys can prove on.

1326
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think third period offense too.

1327
01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 6: Al told a second ago, eleven of the fifteen games

1328
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 6: this year, the krack and have had single digit shots

1329
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 6: in the third period, And of those eleven, I'm willing

1330
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 6: to bet at least half six of those eleven games.

1331
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,960
Speaker 6: You know they're five or below. So when you're in

1332
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 6: a two to one, three to two game. You know,

1333
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 6: I understand wanting to tighten things up defensively, but you

1334
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,080
Speaker 6: know it takes a lot of pressure off your goaltending,

1335
01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 6: off your defense.

1336
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 7: If you can go up three to one, go up

1337
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:48,680
Speaker 7: you know, the four to two, whatever it is.

1338
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:51,280
Speaker 6: Right, So I think third period this week if the

1339
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 6: krack and can have more of that shot first mentality,

1340
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:57,160
Speaker 6: We've seen them getting better as games win, as go on,

1341
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 6: but I'd like to see more pucks onto the net

1342
01:06:00,560 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 6: and the third period.

1343
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:03,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to also go there for some props I've

1344
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,480
Speaker 1: not had a chance to give to Riker Evans back

1345
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 1: now from his injury. He's looked terrific in his first

1346
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:12,800
Speaker 1: two games games oh Man, two points through two games.

1347
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: Those two points came in his debut with Saint Louis,

1348
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,280
Speaker 1: But I mean you look at him and how he plays,

1349
01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 1: and then you add Vince Done there, Brandon Montour on

1350
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,720
Speaker 1: a different pairing defensive cores all of a sudden now

1351
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:26,520
Speaker 1: looks a lot more mobile right now with Ryker Evans

1352
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,200
Speaker 1: as a part of all of this, and now potentially

1353
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 1: maybe we'll see if what Lane Lambert wants to do,

1354
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 1: and I think the structure might you know, and I

1355
01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:37,880
Speaker 1: think inhibit where you put these guys, but now you

1356
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,560
Speaker 1: have options for the power play in case you want

1357
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:44,480
Speaker 1: to switch things up. Dun's there, montor separate unit. Do

1358
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:47,120
Speaker 1: you switch him up? Maybe Riker Evans though he can

1359
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 1: carry you two as a point man. So this team's

1360
01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: got options down in case they want to go there.

1361
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:55,800
Speaker 1: But having him back, it couldn't have come any sooner.

1362
01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:58,440
Speaker 1: And I think the same goes when we can hopefully

1363
01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:00,800
Speaker 1: get some good news here for guys like Jared McCann

1364
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:02,840
Speaker 1: and Freddie goodrou is a crack and the is certainly

1365
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:05,600
Speaker 1: still hanging in there right now and miss all the injuries.

1366
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm hoping we get some info.

1367
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,960
Speaker 6: I mean, Jerry McCann has been day to day, you

1368
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,440
Speaker 6: know since there were a wild stars on the flag.

1369
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:19,680
Speaker 7: So I'm hoping that. Yeah. And listen, I understand that

1370
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,880
Speaker 7: it's not our business, stripe medical stuff is. It is

1371
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:25,760
Speaker 7: what it is. I get it.

1372
01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:28,479
Speaker 6: But I really I'm hoping this week with with both

1373
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:32,760
Speaker 6: the coord you know, with Gudreau and and I think

1374
01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:36,560
Speaker 6: most importantly with the Cord, we can get some definitive

1375
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:40,440
Speaker 6: answers on Hey, you know, day to day is out

1376
01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:44,840
Speaker 6: for X. You know Joey Decord, we re evaluated and

1377
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 6: he is available or not. Freddie Goodreau is either skating

1378
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 6: or not right like, I'm hoping we can get some

1379
01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:57,560
Speaker 6: definitive answers going into the week here, because listen, it's

1380
01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 6: it's not an easy schedule. You know, you've got some

1381
01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:03,560
Speaker 6: tough games with Columbus and Winnipeg Ands and San Josa

1382
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 6: this weeeky go on the road for four out east

1383
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,760
Speaker 6: next week, then you come back home for Dallas back

1384
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:11,959
Speaker 6: to back with Edmonton. Utah's in there like you're gonna start.

1385
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:16,240
Speaker 6: You're gonna need these guys. And I think, you know,

1386
01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:20,920
Speaker 6: just for for media's sanity, our sanity, which I know

1387
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:22,840
Speaker 6: they care about, it will.

1388
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:27,480
Speaker 7: Be nice to know who's available, who's not available.

1389
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:31,240
Speaker 6: So that's my that's my my polite soapbox for the day.

1390
01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:33,599
Speaker 1: And on that note, are we set to get back

1391
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 1: to chores?

1392
01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:35,720
Speaker 9: Yeah?

1393
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:36,439
Speaker 7: There?
