A question 103 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 2: that before the face off coming up in Buffalo at 104 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: two thirty pm Pacific time, But we caught up here 105 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: with an ideal guy to discuss the move and more 106 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: implications coming out of the win over Tampa Bay, game 107 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 2: five of six on the trip. Coming up, we have 108 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: afternoon hockey also, at least for those working on the 109 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 2: West coast here or the broadcast, I'm one of them. 110 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: The other as well for the TV end of this 111 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: joins me right now, Ian Farness, the mayor of Maple Valley. 112 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: He'll be at the set by the way two pm 113 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 2: for the Crack and Hockey Network. Also heard, of course 114 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: one to three week days on ninty three to three KJRFM. Hey, Mayor, 115 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 2: speaking of we had a pretty busy, had fun week, 116 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: didn't we around these parts? 117 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 6: Yeah? Crazy week, man, We got lots going on. 118 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 8: And you know, for those listening here, probably the top 119 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 8: of the list would be the winning camp Goodness. 120 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: I can't help but think as far as getting into 121 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 2: immediate reaction from at least I think the magnitude of this, 122 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: the necessity of it, and what they had to do 123 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 2: which was so absent compared to maybe I would say 124 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: going back to the win against the Panthers when they 125 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 2: were at home over ten days ago. But to finish 126 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: this thing off, this was maybe I think the scariest 127 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: game for me on the trip, all things considered. The 128 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: damage Tampa Bay did to them, and that did also 129 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 2: at will, and they find a way to get the 130 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: overtime when to back to get back to within three 131 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: points of the wildcard spot by the time that they 132 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 2: hit by the time that that that they hit bedtime 133 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: coming off the plane, what's your immediate reaction, Yeah, I would. 134 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 6: Say the same. 135 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 8: You look at a schedule and sometimes you just say 136 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 8: it was probably a scheduled lot and you know without 137 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 8: I mean, listen, let's be honest, like that's what this 138 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 8: looked like like with what happened in Seattle. How easy 139 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 8: as you mentioned it was, and others mentioned it was 140 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 8: for Tampa and against Seattle at the Plage area, there's 141 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 8: no reason, there's no reasonable the expectation going in that 142 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 8: game except for one thing. We brought this up on 143 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 8: the TV side. Maybe you did as well on radio. 144 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 8: The way Seattle played against a team that in some ways, 145 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 8: in not some ways, it is probably at that same 146 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 8: level that's Carolina, and got the win home against Carolina 147 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 8: two to one. We've seen this team gay at wins 148 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 8: that are he wins. We see them oftentimes play up 149 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 8: and play down to the competition. So you know, we 150 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 8: discussed that a little bit, but end of the day 151 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 8: like this was. Yeah, if you look at the six 152 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 8: games away from home, this was number one in terms 153 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 8: of difficulty and they got to win and that's huge. 154 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 8: And it's also sometimes mind boggling, like what team is 155 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 8: going to show up for Lane Lambert every night? Yeah, 156 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 8: but obviously on Thursday that that team that showed up 157 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 8: was was pretty damn good. 158 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: What lit the fuse for me? Wasn't the Brandon Montour 159 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: goal to make it one nothing. It certainly helps, and 160 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: the Kraken have to basically be in position to not 161 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 2: chase at this time of year. But I think it was, 162 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: of course, maybe what I saw, maybe what you saw 163 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: the Berkeley cat and fight with JJ Moser. First off, 164 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: hilarious that he picked a different guy than Emil Lilleberg 165 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 2: because he was the guy that hit Jordan Everley up high. 166 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: And yet I go back here to maybe where this 167 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: is all kind of begetting for my train of thought. 168 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: In December, the Kraken call up Jacob Alanson, who is 169 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 2: running a muck with a controlled environment, if I can 170 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 2: put it that way. But now you get a projected 171 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: top line guy for the future stepping in for something 172 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 2: he isn't paid to do, and he did this. So 173 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: I think to me, the Seattle kraken Ian at their 174 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: best have always been built on skill, cerebral attentiveness, and 175 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: unshakeable composure. But now we're seeing an infiltration of a 176 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: brand this team hasn't had much of, but is needing 177 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: in the worst kind of way. And that's fire. You 178 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 2: hit my captain, you pay the piper. This was Berkeley 179 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: Catton sending a massive message and I think earned a 180 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: million points in the book of Lane Lambert and ultimately 181 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: to me, without this, it's the butter with no steak, 182 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: sauce with no passe to or addressing, with no salad. 183 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: The floor is yours. 184 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 5: Ean. 185 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: For your reaction to that fight, well. 186 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 8: It's I'm sure that what it did for him in 187 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 8: the room raised his level of uh you know, in 188 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 8: terms of how he's viewed, you know, to a high level. 189 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 8: Uh yeah, picking the wrong guy, although you know, I 190 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 8: mean was not like Berkeley's used to doing that. 191 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 2: Right, I think we all saw it was his first 192 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: NHL fight, right, It's it's. 193 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 8: Not like it's not like it's you know, the Tom 194 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 8: Wilson in you know, chasing after brand and Tanna in 195 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 8: Utah on Thursday and anything like that. Like Berkeley, Berkeley 196 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 8: didn't need The thing is beautiful about that is this, 197 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 8: he didn't need to know who it was. He just 198 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 8: looked for retribution and he looked to stand up first 199 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 8: captain as a twenty year old, you know, freshly turned 200 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 8: twenty years old rookie. Thats probably I'm not sure if 201 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 8: he ever did that in Spokane. Sure, if he did, 202 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 8: then there was probably all out war in the Western League. 203 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 8: It's given someone Toney Burk the cat, so he understood. 204 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 8: And I think more importantly, Matt what we see. Matty 205 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 8: Vineers did that a couple of weeks ago, and now 206 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 8: we see that here with with Berkeley Cat. For those 207 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 8: who don't think that the coaching change made a difference 208 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 8: or was needed or for whatever reason, I've heard this 209 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 8: from people that lane. You know, I don't know what's 210 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 8: going on. The culture is changed. It is different. 211 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 6: If I had a dollar for every. 212 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 8: Time Eddie Old Chuck last year said where's the response, Johnny, 213 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 8: there's gotta be a response after that play. You've got 214 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 8: to respond to that. You know, if I had a dollar, 215 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 8: I'd be retired that in anytime he says, that's nicing, 216 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 8: but I digress. 217 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 6: That's what it is. 218 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 8: That's what it is. And that didn't happen last year. 219 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 8: It probably didn't happen the years before that. And it 220 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 8: doesn't have to be a heavyweight. They don't have one anyway. 221 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 6: So it doesn't matter. 222 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 8: But it doesn't have to be a heavyweight. It doesn't 223 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 8: have to be a guy that even wins the just 224 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 8: show up, just stand up. 225 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 6: For your teammates. Show up and stand up for your teammates. 226 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 8: And Lane said that, I'm trying to go back, what 227 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 8: was the what was the scuffle in pre season? It 228 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 8: happened in preseason with somebody, and uh was it Coppo. 229 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 8: I'm trying to remember who it was. There's a preseason 230 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 8: instant and Lane said, I love it. That's what I 231 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 8: want to see. Like that, that's that stand up your teammates, 232 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 8: create that culture. 233 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 6: And that's what we did. 234 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 8: I mean, listen, if you want to go to the 235 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 8: fight card, players that have more fights this year than 236 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 8: a couple of year, defensemen putting a heavyweight would be 237 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 8: that even Ears Berkeley, Catton, Freddy Gadro Right, So I 238 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 8: just thought it was awesome. I don't know if that 239 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 8: was the turning point in the game. 240 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 6: But I think it. 241 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 8: Was certainly a point in the game where the bench 242 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 8: recognized it and the bench respected it. And that's huge, 243 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 8: and I just I love Berkeley. 244 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 6: I think I. 245 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 8: Think this kid's gonna be really special. I think people 246 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 8: that there want to say, well, why is he not 247 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 8: putting up the huge numbers like you know some other 248 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 8: young guys are. His nice time hasn't been the same. 249 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 8: He's not on the power Play one, U barely on 250 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 8: power Play two. 251 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 6: You watch his. 252 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 8: Skill, his vision. I think sometimes he plays above some 253 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 8: guys on this team. He's going to be really good. 254 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 8: And then that just that solidifies who of what he 255 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 8: is character wised. 256 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 2: Well that there's a big reason why he's playing on 257 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: the top line. And that's for one of the many 258 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 2: reasons why, of course I see Infnest joins us right 259 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: now on Cracking this morning. I mean, Lane Lambert said 260 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 2: it here on these airwaves, telling you know, our friend 261 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 2: the soft one, Dave Softy mall or that as long 262 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: as he keeps doing what he is doing, he's got 263 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 2: a long, long leash here to play on that top line. 264 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 2: And then we get to that fight with JJ Moser, 265 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: So I think certainly a lot of street cred that 266 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 2: Berkeley Catton certainly earned from that. But now we're gonna 267 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: see also a young guy potentially back in the mix. 268 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: Here Logan Morrison emergency call up the other day. He's 269 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 2: taking the next step right now as one of the 270 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: top scorers in the American Hockey League fifty six points 271 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: in sixty one games. And ian to me, folks may 272 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: be asking, why isn't this Jagger Fercus. Well, to me, 273 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: it's down to two things. One, Morrison's been here before 274 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 2: and we're in crunch time. Two, it's a matter of 275 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 2: a difference between two inches and sixteen pounds. Morrison clears 276 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 2: Fercus in both categories, and the last thing you want 277 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: to do is put Fercus in there and get him 278 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: roughed up beyond repair. He hasn't played a real NHL 279 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: game yet, Morrison has, so I'll be careful speculating maybe 280 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: who might be out because of this being an emergency 281 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: call up. But for Morrison, to you, what's the expectation, Oh, 282 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: I don't. 283 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 6: Think it's high. 284 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 8: I think it's just, you know, he's a warm body. 285 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 8: Depends on what I want to do, assuming that they 286 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 8: brought him up because there's a forward injured, and they 287 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 8: went eleven and seven as it is, then then you know, 288 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 8: we'll see what you know, he'll slant in as good 289 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 8: as I time. 290 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 5: I thought. 291 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 8: I thought maybe more interesting than his call up was 292 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 8: Oscar Fisker Moulguard and the comments play made before the 293 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 8: game on Thursday, when he said, you know, it's kind 294 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 8: of a few sive of his praise. He said, look, 295 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 8: you know he came up here briefly before he played 296 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 8: six minutes. He's gonna play a lot more than six minutes. 297 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 8: I think he played what twelve minutes on Thursday, Yeah, 298 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 8: and got a got an assist and never looked out 299 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 8: of place. 300 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 2: That's two and four games now for him, by the way. 301 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 8: Right, and I I listen again, they don't have it 302 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 8: doesn't appear that they have an aircraft carrier in the system, 303 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 8: and you know, a fifty goal guy and all that. 304 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 8: But I think one of the things I'm really encouraged 305 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 8: about is we just spent time talking about Berkeley. What 306 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 8: you know, Matty Veneers is still a really young player. 307 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 8: Oscar Fisker Mullguard. If Morris is ready to take the 308 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 8: next step you know, there's some you's on this team 309 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 8: that's excited. A couple of cockles on an old player, 310 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 8: and look at we just got to find a way. 311 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 8: They got to find a way every year to put 312 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 8: an international tournament for him. Ideally, maybe you have him 313 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 8: play in August and just tell. 314 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 6: Him it's like an Olympics or nation trying to trick. 315 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 8: Him because he comes back out of those things like that. 316 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 2: And the install and Olympics simulator over a case. You 317 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: bring him in like a month earlier. 318 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 8: Just do that. They listen, Goblin, this is next to 319 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 8: the Olympics. I know it doesn't feel that way. He's 320 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 8: he's you know, I think there's a lot of reason 321 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 8: to be excited. I mean, I mean, look at your 322 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 8: Jacob Bryant, Laster's first round pick, and and there's a 323 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 8: lot of people that feel that his natural skill level 324 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 8: is higher than Berkeley's. 325 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 6: So like they're going in the right direction. 326 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 8: We want it to happen now, and I get all that. 327 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 8: You know, there's the Shane Wright dilemma, like what's wrong, 328 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 8: what will be wrong? 329 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 6: What's always? 330 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 8: I mean, it's if he ever gonna slip the switch 331 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 8: and turn a corner. But but you know, I think 332 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 8: there's so many other young players that we can If 333 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 8: you're a cracking fan, you can be excited about. And yeah, 334 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 8: we'll see what Morrison brings. I wouldn't expect a lot. 335 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 8: I mean, you're going in if he plays in Buffalo. 336 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, I mean that's just that's that's the hardest 337 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 8: thing about this league, right, A great game, you get 338 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 8: a win against Hampa, build off, that gets some cop 339 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 8: Oh Buffalo, but that's cool. 340 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 6: Now. 341 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 8: The good thing is they're playing the back half of 342 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 8: a back to back, so you know that maybe just 343 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 8: maybe that can help you. The earlier face off which 344 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 8: doesn't help them, But I just it's at the challenge 345 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 8: big time. 346 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 6: We'll see what Morrison is. I'm excited. 347 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 8: I mean, I'm excited to see him, but I don't 348 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 8: I wouldn't have my expectations. The question is who's coming out, 349 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 8: you know, because as we as we're talking right now, 350 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 8: we don't know. And you know, there's some guys that 351 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 8: didn't play. It looks like I just looked at the 352 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 8: ship chart. It didn't look like Myers played the final 353 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 8: ten minutes or so on Thursday. I don't everly got 354 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 8: dinged up but he did come back, so who knows 355 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 8: what his situation is. There's always the worry and not worry, 356 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 8: but there's always thought that someone's significant other could be 357 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 8: having a baby at anytime, so that could be on 358 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 8: the dog and so who knows what the circumstances are. 359 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 8: Maybe it's all status quo and he's just there in case. 360 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 8: So we'll see. 361 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 2: Logan Morrison if he plays, we'll be in his fifth 362 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: career NHL game. And the word from the end side 363 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 2: of Coachelle Valley, he's been very, very good and matter 364 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 2: of time before he was certainly called up here all right, 365 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 2: finally against Buffalo Ian you basically kind of hinted here 366 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 2: as far as with the crack and are facing on 367 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 2: the sabers side, is there ending here for a split 368 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 2: in this series? Buffalo, for the heater they have been on, 369 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 2: have now lost three in a row in regulation or overtime. 370 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 2: They have given up fifteen goals in the last three games. 371 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 2: They have also scored nineteen goals last five games, despite 372 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: a five to two lost to Detroit last night. Helps 373 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: when you have guys like Rasmus Dallen, Tayse Thompson, etc. 374 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 2: And by the way, on that back then twelve points 375 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 2: last ten games to me eat in the same recipe 376 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 2: follows stable first period, get a lead, take it from there. 377 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: What about you? 378 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think well, and you need to need great goaltending. 379 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 8: Uh and you know, we didn't even talk about what 380 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 8: Groovy did in Tampa. He was phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal, and 381 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 8: they're gonna need all I'll assume it's gonna be Joey, 382 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 8: but who knows, maybe it is maybe. 383 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 6: To go back to Phil. I don't know they go back. 384 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 6: I kind of think they'll go. 385 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 8: Back to Joey. But you'll need great goaltending. You'll need 386 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 8: to lead goltending. You'll need a guy. You'll need a 387 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 8: guy that that's gonna have to make some saves that 388 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 8: are not expected. It's as simple as that. Like he's 389 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 8: gonna have to be in the in the plus plus 390 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 8: category there probably against that particular team. 391 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 6: So you know, we'll see what we'll see what that brings. 392 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 6: Stay out of penalty box. 393 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 8: I mean, there's no you don't want to watch if 394 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 8: Case Thompson set up the letter rip is not a 395 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 8: fun know. Uh So I don't think you want to 396 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 8: do that. But you know, Mike if they bring the 397 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 8: same game they brought from uh from Campa into Buffalo, 398 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 8: then we'll have a good game, you know, and then 399 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 8: you'll ask you we'll probably keep asking the questions of 400 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 8: where was that for the Nashville game? 401 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 6: Where was that for the Florida game? 402 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 8: But you've got three points on the. 403 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 6: Trip right now. 404 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 8: I think all along we said you need to get sick, 405 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 8: right kind of That's that was kind of our thought 406 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 8: all along. If you can get six, you're kind of 407 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 8: gonna you'll you'll you'll be in an okay situation. Not ideal, 408 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 8: but you'll be okay. You've got three. 409 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 6: Gosh, if you. 410 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 8: Can get if you can find a way to get 411 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 8: even two more, you know, between Buffalo and Edmonton, maybe three, Uh, 412 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 8: you're gonna feel okay coming back, Like I I five 413 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 8: would be not again, not ideal, But I mean this 414 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 8: is about stacking points. That's all it is right now. Uh, 415 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 8: And so you got to keep doing that and find 416 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 8: a way to do that. But I I've got confidence 417 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 8: that this team is going to be the same team 418 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 8: we saw in Yampa.
