1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:00,600
Speaker 1: Cuban.

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 2: Dad.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't even get the common man, open man.

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: That's a bummer.

5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,080
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Day Before The Day Before the Final

6
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 3: day of twenty twenty five. Kevin Falmas, along with Brett

7
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 3: Blakemore in for the common Man, Dan Cole and Brandon

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 3: Maleski Old Tennabee off doing dad things. I'm sure somewhere

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 3: across the great state of hockey. And what a time

10
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,959
Speaker 3: to be a hockey fan. Brett Blake Moore, how are

11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 3: you doing, my friend?

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: I'm doing well.

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 4: What a rousing victory in Vegas for your Minnesota wild unbelieved.

14
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 4: That was the most convincing win since the qu'es trade.

15
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 4: I mean that was dominating.

16
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 3: You might be right, there's been a there's been some

17
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 3: good ones this season. The game against Colorado on Black Friday,

18
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: that was awesome. That was the first fist pump by

19
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 3: yesper Valstad as he shuts out both Nathan McKennon and Cale.

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 2: Mccarr Radio damn mirror explode. Made them angry.

21
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 3: They didn't like it, but we sure did going to

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 3: Winnipeg and beating them, even though that's not as great

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 3: of a victory as it looks now, but still you

24
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,559
Speaker 3: had lost to them for ninth straight going back four years.

25
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 3: So you go into Winnipeg, you beat them to you

26
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 3: beat Dallas, you thump them, put five on Jake Ottinger

27
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 3: and the Stars.

28
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: But you're right to start to this road trip.

29
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: The win in Winnipeg this time around to start the

30
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 3: road trip wasn't the prettiest, but man would have finished.

31
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 3: And then they go to Vegas last night and beat

32
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 3: up on a hurting Vegas Golden Knights team, and you know,

33
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 3: they won two in a row to start the road trip,

34
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 3: and they get a chance to finish off twenty twenty

35
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: five at least that portion of the schedule tomorrow at

36
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: the Shark Tank in San Jose. So yeah, I say,

37
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: it's it's pretty good time to be a Wild fan

38
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: these days.

39
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: That's really good.

40
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 4: And the lines I think are not to burn every

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 4: single one of my breakaways. But I just love the

42
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 4: way that the depth scoring. I mean, hat tip to Johansson, who, yeah,

43
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 4: has been savaged in this town any of time. I

44
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 4: think he's mashed his point total from last season already.

45
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: It's crazy. You know what, the last two years he

46
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: scored eleven.

47
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: Last night he scored his twelfth and four point outing

48
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 3: you might be one of those that have to eat

49
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 3: some croll. That's fine, They're going to Marcus Johansson even

50
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 3: on a one year deal.

51
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 2: What is Bill Garon thinking? Is he on dope? Well,

52
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 2: apparently he knew what he was doing.

53
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 4: Now, I've always said I if the play changes, I'll

54
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 4: change the material accordingly.

55
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 2: And he's playing.

56
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 4: Well, now I'll say this, and this goes for everybody.

57
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 4: If it dries up come playoff time, we'll hear about.

58
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: That as well.

59
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, but again, as we say, the players have the

60
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 4: last word, and right now the last word is word dominant.

61
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: This is what I'm thinking. It's too bad because this

62
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: has been a nice little run. If Brandon was here,

63
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 3: he probably would have made one of those cool montages.

64
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 3: Like I'm a diehard listener to The common Man Show.

65
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 3: I know a lot of his bits, a lot of

66
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 3: his terminology. Some of it goes over my head, but

67
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 3: a lot of it hits me between the eyes. And

68
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: how good would it have been to have a montage

69
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 3: to open up the show today to salute the Minnesota

70
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 3: well third place in the Western Conference.

71
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: Who would have.

72
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 3: Thought that was possible after dropping nine to twelve in

73
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 3: the month of October.

74
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: But they've resurrected their season.

75
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 3: They pulled off a couple of the trade for Quinnys

76
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: obviously was great, signing career Capriceo off to a long

77
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: term deal into the season and now riding the waves

78
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: since November first, they've been unbelievable twenty one, four and

79
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: three since they got out of that dismal October. Since

80
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 3: November one, it's been amazing. So we should have done

81
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: is put together a montage.

82
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: So let me do this.

83
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: Hang on, I've actually found a cool website and you

84
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: can go there, and I think radio producers use this,

85
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: and I guarantee you Brandon Moleuski is used.

86
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: Hang on, let me just check.

87
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the one that I think I'm looking for.

88
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 3: It's to put montages together on the fly. And let's see,

89
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 3: it's asking for a couple of different category. We want

90
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: it in the style of common man on kfan. I

91
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,279
Speaker 3: always musa spell KFN my fat fingers. Okay, so kfan,

92
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 3: we want it in the form of a montage. Now,

93
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 3: this is where it's gonna get tricky, because they've on

94
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: the fly. They've got to put in wild radio highlights

95
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 3: featuring Joe O'Donnell and Tom Reid, plenty to choose from.

96
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 2: We're already forty games into the season. There we go.

97
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: We want it emotional. That's one thing that I think

98
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 3: Common and tenn Tobe do great. They make it emotional.

99
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 3: So we'll add that category in and let's see what

100
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 3: we got.

101
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: Fire that up. If you can't turn on this computer,

102
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: I have no idea if this will suck. Turn on

103
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 2: that one.

104
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 3: Hey, yep, it might be good. It's buffering, all right,

105
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 3: I think it's ready. You fire it off in there,

106
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 3: and let's see what we got. This is a montage

107
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 3: to the first half of the Minnesota Wild season. I

108
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 3: have no idea what this is going to sound like,

109
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 3: So cross your fingers. It could be awful, could be wonderful.

110
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,119
Speaker 3: Him to be alive if you put your I hope

111
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 3: John Hines somewhere somehow here's about that and can play

112
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 3: it for that Why crew tomorrow at the Shark Tank

113
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: before they go into that matinee against the San Jose Sharks.

114
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: What do you think I mean, I've got tears in

115
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 2: my eyes. Are you sure he didn't just hire tennab

116
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 2: to do that? Are you do you think he would

117
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: do anything for me.

118
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: I'd bend over backwards for everyone in this build, but

119
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: he would not.

120
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 2: Are you kidding?

121
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: He's, like I said, being a dad doing dad things.

122
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: Probably at a golf simulator, if I had to guess,

123
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 3: or probably in a hockey rink with one of his

124
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 3: eighty four kids.

125
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: But that was unbelievable.

126
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 3: Saul and Blaine, you guys rock have a happy New

130
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 3: and then I took it easy on a Packers fan.

131
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: Let's go all caps exclamation point. I'm not sure what

132
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 2: to make of that one.

133
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 3: Well, I'm with you, you know what, Packer fans, we

Speaker 3: week for you. You're going into the playoffs with a

136
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,359

00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 3: our expense.

144
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 2: The Vikings are going into the off.

145
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 3: Season with a big old w, but you could be

146
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 3: going into the night with a pair of tickets to

147
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 3: an upcoming Minnesota Wild home game.

148
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 2: This is what I'm asking, Brett Blakemer. I know the

149
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 2: answer for you.

150
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 3: You're firmly on the bandwagon, correct on the Wild.

151
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: Bad Mags.

152
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 3: It couldn't be more How were you feeling four hundred

153
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 3: some days ago when the Wild were bounced in the

154
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: first round of the playoffs by the Vegas Golden Knights.

155
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: Were you on the bandwagon? Then?

156
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 4: I would say that I was feeling a bowl loosening

157
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 4: level of existential dread.

158
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: I think that's what I was feeling.

159
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 3: I think everyone was kind of in the same boat.

160
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 3: You didn't know what was going to happen in the offseason.

161
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 3: You had the question mark hanging over your head with

162
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 3: Carill capriceof how would they respond after getting bounced in

163
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 3: the first round. And now you look at what's happened

164
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,239
Speaker 3: to this team over the first forty games of this season,

165
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 3: including last night where they go to Vegas and get

166
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 3: a measure of revenge on the Golden others, I get

167
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 3: carried away.

168
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 2: I mean the Vegas Golden Knights ended their season last year.

169
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 3: The Wild beat him twice in a regular season game,

170
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 3: including last night at Teamobile Arena.

171
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: But that said, are you on the bandwagon? This is

172
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 2: what I want.

173
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 3: I want your texts and I want your talkbacks all

174
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 3: throughout the course of the program. If you are on

175
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 3: the bandwagon, what drove you to that point? What was

176
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: your breaking point?

177
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 5: Is that?

178
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I believe again. Was it one of the two

179
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: seven game.

180
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 3: Win streaks that they put together in the first forty games.

181
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 3: Was it the re signing of Carill capriceof to a

182
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 3: long term deal, having him say, yep, I want to

183
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 3: be here for the long haul. Was it going out

184
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 3: there and signing or trading for I should say, Quinn Hughes,

185
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 3: a generational talent out there on the blue line, a

186
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 3: difference maker in so many different ways. Or is it

187
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 3: the emergence of one of these young kids a Danilla

188
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 3: you're off last night playing on the top line with

189
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 3: Caprisov and Zuccarello. Is that the emergence of the great

190
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: Wall of St. Paul, Yespervalsta what makes you a believer?

191
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: Once again? Now almost to the midway point of this

192
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 3: Minnesota Wild season. Put it in form either on that

193
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,120

Speaker 3: Wild home game.

196
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 2: A great time to get inside the building.

197
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: The problem is you got to wait another couple of weeks,

198
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: week and a half, whatever it is that's left on

199
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 3: this road trip. The World Juniors are in town, so

200
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 3: there's certainly stuff going on at Grand Casino Arena. It

201
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 3: ain't the Minnesota while, but they will be back soon,

202
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: and we've got tickets for you. If you can convince

203
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 3: me why you are on the bandwagon or are you

204
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 3: still hesitant? That too could be a talkback. What's holding

205
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: you back? Why are you not a believer? You have

206
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: to see a first round victory to make you believe

207
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 3: in Bill Garon and what he's doing here for the

208
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 3: Wild and the state of hockey.

209
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 2: That too can be a valid answer.

210
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 3: Put it in a written form either text us at

211
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: six four six eighty six, or you can use that

212
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 3: free iHeart radio app and use the talkback feature where

213
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 3: giving away tickets multiple in over the course of the

214
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: next couple of hours leading up to three o'clock, we're

215
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: also going to talk a ton of hockey. The World

216
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 3: Juniors are going on in Saint Paul and Minneapolis. Awesome

217
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 3: tournament has lived up to the hype to this point.

218
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 3: I'm very jealous of Zach Halverson and Mark Parrish. They've

219
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 3: been calling all the play by play action for Team

220
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: USA on your radio, whether it be for the Flagship

221
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 3: tomorrow night, they'll be on there.

222
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: I think they're on there last night. As a matter

223
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 2: of fact, they will be tomorrow too.

224
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 3: Once the extended Minnesota wild post game finally wraps up.

225
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: That it just goes on and on. But when that's.

226
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 3: Finally done, Halvey will have Sweden against the Americans, and

227
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 3: if Team USA can get the win out of that one,

228
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 3: they guarantee themselves a top two spot in quarterfinal action

229
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 3: as they make their way towards the Metal rounds later

230
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 3: this week. What else, and then, of course the while

231
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 3: going on, So go ahead, get we got Russell coming

232
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 3: up at about two o'clock, we got Halvey at the

233
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 3: bottom of the hour. We got to our guy John

234
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: Morosi from NHL Network joining us at the bottom of

235
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 3: next hour as well. But when we continue, you know what,

236
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 3: let's bust out Brett Blakemore's Breakaways. That's next fill in

237
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 3: for common Man on the film Kafan.

238

245
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 6: Hey, it's a Nate from Columbia Heights. And what's really

246
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 6: got me behind the wild is the wall from Saint

247
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 6: Paul with Bulstead, but then also gust us In and

248
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 6: then our two defensemen, Favor and Hughes.

249
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 1: Now, I really think.

250
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 6: We have a one two three knockout punch now that

251
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 6: can really get us out of the first round. But

252
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 6: I am from Minnesota, so I do have a little

253
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 6: bit of Hes to see when it comes to the playoffs.

254
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 6: But I would love to see them succeed beyond the

255
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 6: first round.

256
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: Says you're welcome. Talkbacks blowing up.

257
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 3: Text line blowing up as well from Dan Cole at

258
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 3: the nine to five to two area code I'm always

259
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: on the bandwagon until I'm not.

260
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 2: Zero chance.

261
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 3: That's actually Dan Cole, another one of the six to

262
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 3: one to two area code on the bandwagon since we

263
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 3: started getting that great defense slash goaltending from the sixty

264
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 3: five to one area code. I've been on the bandwagon

265
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 3: ever since. Billy g has been leading it. This man

266
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 3: wants to bring a cup here more than anything, and

267
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 3: he's showing it by not being afraid to make the

268
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 3: necessary moves. Best general manager in the league, everything feels.

269
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 3: Another one calls us a skatriots from the three to

270
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 3: two zero area code. From the sixty five to one

271
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 3: area code. What's the name of the Montage website? Again,

272
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 3: I think that's from Maleski. He might be listening. He's

273
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 3: looking for a shortcut. Do your job, Brandon. I'm not

274
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 3: giving you any shortcuts. Are helping you do your job faster.

275
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 3: You just put in the work like you always do,

276
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 3: and you'll do a great job. You'll be out of

277
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 3: that interim label before we know it. Everything's very positive

278
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 3: thus far. I guess I shouldn't be surprised at that

279
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 3: third place in the Central Division and considering how the

280
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: season started to how it's going. You would think that

281
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 3: there'd be a lot of positivity, but is there someone

282
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 3: out there that isn't quite on the bandwagon yet? What

283
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 3: do you need to see? That's what we want to

284
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 3: hear from you. Six four six eight six. You can

285
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 3: text that in or use that free iHeartRadio app. We'll

286
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 3: weave those in to the show between now and three o'clock.

287
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 3: In as we mentioned, I'll give away a couple of

288
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 3: tickets this hour, a couple more next hours, so keep

289
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: them coming. We'll get to as many of them as

290
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 3: we possibly can. The best part about Common not being here, well,

291
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 3: there's a number of reasons. I don't have to smell

292
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 3: tuna emanating from his tupperware in this chair. I don't

293
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 3: have to get my butt kicked by program passwords, which

294
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 3: is usually why I'm here so you people can make

295
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 3: fun of me. But the other reason is because he

296
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 3: leaves that wheel of topic unattended. I know that it's

297
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 3: not golf season, and that's why he He hasn't used

298
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 3: it in forever. We used it during Beyond the Pond.

299
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: We busted that thing out just a couple of maybe

300
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:06,959
Speaker 3: about a month ago.

301
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 2: It took some maintenance. He's sitting there he had. He

302
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 2: has not moved it since I used it last.

303
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 3: I want to see if they fix it, because I

304
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 3: guarantee you they have not. They're not even going to

305
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 3: look at it until next spring, I guarantee it. So

306
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 3: let's spin the wheel of topic and let's see if

307
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 3: it's still working the way it should be. Had a

308
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 3: great round in Arizona. We could talk about that again,

309
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 3: but the second time, if.

310
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,559
Speaker 2: Golf comes up, then we have to do it. It's

311
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 2: the wheel of topic. Minnesota wild Wow, they don't does

312
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 2: anybody work around here? How can it still be set

313
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 2: up like that? Well, that's that's too bad.

314
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 3: I mean, we spun the wheel of stuff boat, we

315
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 3: spun the wheel of topic, and we just got to

316
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 3: do what it says. So if we're gonna talk Minnesota while,

317
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 3: we may as well do it right. Let's bust out

318
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: Brett Bligmore's breakaways.

319
00:13:54,800 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: It's time for Blake for breakaway.

320
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 4: Remember I got shafted um beyond the Pond, didn't even

321
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 4: do it.

322
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 2: Hey, I want to get through the open first.

323
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 3: Well, great boy, someone called me burstage for stepping over

324
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 3: the montage that was created organically. I'm sorry, So I

325
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 3: didn't want to step out over Brett Blakemore's Breakaways. You

326
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 3: did get snuffed last week, there's no doubt, but you

327
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: cannot argue with the guest lineup we've had in the

328
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 3: month of November and even into December. I guess we

329
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: started at the end of November. So when we've been

330
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 3: on the air, myself and Pat mcletty, you buy our side.

331
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: We love getting Brett Blakemore's Breakaways, but we've had John Mayasich,

332
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: we had Zach Parizi. Last week, we had Tony Grenado

333
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 3: and Phil Housley. I mean, when you talk about a

334
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 3: star studded lineup, that's just the tip of the iceberg.

335
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 2: It's been great.

336
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 3: Last week in particular, it was one big guest after another,

337
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 3: so it was tough. But I promise you this is

338
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: my wish and my lasting This is what I promise,

339
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 3: is what I should say. Saturday ten am to noon

340
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 3: went beyond the pond. Next takes these airwaves. I promise

341
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: in that two hour window we will have the return

342
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 3: of Brett Blakemore's Breakaways because it's so good and this

343
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 3: will be a good example of what we missed out

344
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: last week and what we should look forward to this

345
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 3: coming Saturday.

346
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: We'll go here.

347
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 4: I put out a poll yesterday on x and really

348
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 4: this could be a breakaway every single time I do

349
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 4: the segment. Okay, so I said game one of the

350
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 4: playoffs is tonight? Who do you start?

351
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 6: In?

352
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: Net?

353
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 4: And is a very scientific poll because a everything on

354
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 4: Twitter is reality and not nearly a warped reality. And

355
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 4: two only fifty three people voted on it, so this

356
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 4: is absolutely scientific.

357
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 3: But okay, so how do you want me to go

358
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: by the Do you want to reveal your results? Do

359
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: you want to want me to give you my opinion

360
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 3: or do you want to give your opinion?

361
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 4: Yes, I want you to tell me who you would

362
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 4: and then who do you think won the pole?

363
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 3: A month ago I would have said yes, Pervalstad, and

364
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 3: I don't know that I would have batted an eye

365
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 3: though the tear that kid was on the Great Wall

366
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 3: of Saint Paul was playing large and he was showing

367
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 3: he's the real deal. I think he should be knocking

368
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 3: on the door of the Swedish Olympic team, and he's

369
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 3: been doing some amazing things. But let's not forget who

370
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 3: the number one goaltender is for the Minnesota Wild right now.

371
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 3: I'm not talking about the future. I'm talking about right now.

372
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 3: Philip Gustifson is that guy. Thirteen eight and four on

373
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 3: the season, but he's six to one one in his

374
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 3: last seven starts, nine to one and three in his

375
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 3: last thirteen. Philip Gustofson has regained the throne as the

376
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 3: number one goaltender for the Minnesota Wild right now. In

377
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 3: the future, yes, Pervalstead, right now, if the playoffs start tonight,

378
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 3: I want Philip Gustofson between the pipes with.

379
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 4: They're arousing sixty four percent of the vote, the Great

380
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 4: Wall of Saint Paul leads people want yeah, and it's

381
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 4: declared that's the most scientific poll. Yep, humanly imaginable.

382
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: And no one wanted Max Brosemore two. Oh wow, cheap shot.

383
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: Take that guard you way back from the dirty swine

384
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: whatever it's called.

385
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:08,360
Speaker 1: Man.

386
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying why everyone likes the backup and that,

387
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 3: and that's fine, and there's nothing wrong.

388
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: There's so wrong answer.

389
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: It's like one of the debates I like having with Nicoletti,

390
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 3: who's the better player right now? Do you want McKinnon

391
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 3: or do you want McDavid. There's not a wrong answer.

392
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 3: And it's the same thing with these two guys, Gustafson,

393
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 3: Volston both great options. You asked me what I would

394
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 3: do tonight if the playoffs were starting and you're going

395
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 3: in Round one against the Dallas Oars.

396
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 4: I want Philip Gustofson. We only have like a minute left,

397
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 4: so I have to get this one in. I had

398
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 4: a few other talkers, but we only have a minute.

399
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 2: We gotta get to We have to straddle. Oh, he

400
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 2: could be a little bit late.

401
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 3: All right, Well he's wrecking my New Year's Eve. I'm

402
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 3: gonna wreck his JAB four New Year's Eve. He's on

403
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: my time now.

404
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 4: I really want to get this in. And I know

405
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 4: you hate why I bring this up here. That's why

406
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 4: it's about the future. We thirty line up. By the way, again,

407
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 4: that was this season that I was talking about. I

408
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 4: went to the World Junior's game. I missed the entire

409
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 4: first period thanks to the road still being icy to

410
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 4: drive ten miles an out of the whole way there.

411
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 4: Not bitter about it all earlier. Good I was working. Sorry,

412
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 4: committed the bit. Good News says the US didn't start

413
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 4: playing until the second period.

414
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 2: Anyways, Wow, not a rip.

415
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 4: I was very happy about that. Actually, it was fantastic.

416
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 4: Nothing gets me going more than sports nationalism. There's just

417
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 4: something about it that just gets your blood pumping. The

418
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 4: goal song for the US is Freebird.

419
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 2: It's awesome.

420
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 4: It's unbelievable, and like the Slovakian goal song, it was fitting.

421
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 4: It was weird, but it was It sounded like something

422
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 4: you would hear as you're about to die playing a

423
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 4: squid game.

424
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 2: But that's that's okay.

425
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 4: But Ours America's gohal song is a ripping guitar solo

426
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 4: to Freebird, which then goes to say, can we not

427
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 4: get rid of Shout? It's so bad? It's it's completely subjective.

428
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 2: There is no.

429
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 3: Opinion.

430
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 4: I hate when people say it's objectively well, technically, nothing's

431
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 4: objectively bad. It's totally subjective. Shout stinks. Bring back, I

432
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 4: mean remember, I mean that's a b Yeah, that's a

433
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:13,959
Speaker 4: good one.

434
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: Let's go crazy. Was okay, but the Vikings have that

435
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: they don't need to do that for me.

436
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 3: Back in the day, it was a gary glitter rock

437
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 3: and roll Part two. You can't do that for obvious reasons.

438
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 3: You think Epstein's a bad dude. Yeah, so kick that

439
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 3: one to the curve. But that's that goes back to

440
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: my glory. I mean, I don't know. I don't think

441
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 3: about it that much.

442
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 2: I know you don't. It drives me crazy, and.

443
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: I know you're not alone in that thought, but man,

444
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 3: I don't know. I I do like the Freebird though. Man,

445
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 3: every time they score, it's it's outstanding the way. Hell,

446
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 3: he's calling it great on the radio. He's doing a

447
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 3: great job with the play by play as well, but

448
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 3: he's letting him breathe, and we've got some highlights.

449
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 2: We can play some of those.

450
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,959
Speaker 3: But after they score, they have the horn and then

451
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 3: you hear the free Bird rocking out in the background.

452
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: He just he scores six to five, blah blah, bah blah.

453
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 3: And then he lets a breeze so you can hear

454
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 3: the Freebird in the background. It's outstanding, the great job.

455
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 4: I think it just proves that you can put cooler

456
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 4: things after the goal. Like it's not doesn't have to

457
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 4: And I get savior text. The players voted on it

458
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 4: three years ago. I understand it's.

459
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 2: Just not good. It's just not give me one more.

460
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 4: Speaking of Team USA, and this can lead into Halvey.

461
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 4: I wasn't trying to rip them when saying they didn't

462
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 4: play until the second period. But I do feel like

463
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 4: in general they've been playing with their food a little

464
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 4: bit more than they should.

465
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 2: They are a good team. They are skilled that I mean.

466
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 4: I was watching people for check around the net, which

467
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,719
Speaker 4: is a big no no, but they're so fast they

468
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 4: can do it because they just.

469
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 2: Have that amount of speed.

470
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 4: I feel like they're just they're playing around a little

471
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 4: too much and they could put these teams to bed.

472
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 4: The second game was closer than it needed to be

473
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 4: as well. This one was closer than it needed to be.

474
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 4: Do you think they're playing with their food a little

475
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 4: too much?

476
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: I think this is kind of like an All Star team,

477
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 3: you know, the way they can whip that puck around

478
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: and the way they can fire it from all angles

479
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,679
Speaker 3: and the fancy passes. I think they're just you know,

480
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 3: getting comfortable with each other. I just don't think they're

481
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 3: first of all, I don't think they're as good as

482
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 3: they were the past two seasons. And someone can correct

483
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 3: me if you think I'm wrong. I just think that

484
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 3: the last two World Juniors they were a little bit

485
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 3: more stacked than this current setup. But that's not to

486
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 3: say that this team isn't stacked enough to get a

487
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 3: third consecutive gold. Can they do it? That's like asking

488
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 3: can the Wild win the Stanley Cup? Sure, if they

489
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 3: got to get past Colorado, they got to get past Dallas,

490
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 3: they got to get past Florida, you.

491
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: Know, any of the other big names out there.

492
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 3: And that's the same thing here for the Americans in

493
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 3: the World Juniors, They're gonna have to deal with Sweden,

494
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 3: They're probably gonna have to deal with Canada and any

495
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 3: of the other top fources from those nations that are

496
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 3: they're representing their countries, be it at Grand Casino Arena

497
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 3: or at three Am Arena at Mariucci.

498
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: But it's such a fun tournament to watch for those

499
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 2: of you. What was it like the game that you

500
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: went to.

501
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 3: I know that weather wasn't great, but at least from

502
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 3: a fans standpoint, I the one that I watched from

503
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 3: in there.

504
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 2: It wasn't Slovakia. It was the game before that, Switzerland.

505
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 3: I think it was where I was sitting up there

506
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 3: doing the Wild broadcast at the same time next to

507
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 3: Hellvy and.

508
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 2: Perish, and it wasn't full.

509
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 3: I mean, the top level wasn't jam packed, but there

510
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 3: were a lot of bodies in there, and the atmosphere

511
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:16,719
Speaker 3: was outstanding.

512
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 2: Every time they scored, it was just electric.

513
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 4: It was absolutely I've always you know, Miracle is a

514
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 4: movie that I could rewrite from memory. I've seen it

515
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 4: so many times and just hearing. I've never been to

516
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 4: a events where you get that with your heart. You

517
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 4: say yeah, and it, you know, means not just like

518
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 4: you're doing it after the national anth or anything like

519
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 4: it's a it means something. Yeah, it was unbelievable. I

520
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 4: loved it so much. I love sports nationalism. There's a

521
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 4: when the Ka Chuck brothers fought the Canadians, I could have.

522
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 2: Ran through a wall. It was unbelievable.

523
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 3: And that's the best part about the four nations leading

524
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 3: into the World Juniors.

525
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 2: All this is the appetizer.

526
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 3: We in your appetite for the main event, which is

527
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 3: coming up in a rapid fire moment. And we'll get

528
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 3: into this with Russo at the top of the r

529
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 3: Of course, we're gonna talk Minnesota while and what Bill

530
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 3: Garin's going to do to add pieces to this already

531
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 3: pretty darn good lineup. But what's gonna happen with the

532
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 3: Olympics and Team Usa. I think they're unveiling on Friday.

533
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 3: Team Canada's unveiling their lineup tomorrow or their roster, so

534
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 3: lots of things to get into.

535
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 2: There's some guys on the bubble.

536
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 3: Are the Wild going to have a conglomeration of you know,

537
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 3: they're gonna have a ton of Americans. They're gonna have

538
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 3: three Americans for sure. I think they're going to have

539
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 3: more than a few Swedes as well. And then you

540
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 3: got some other you know, prospects out there doing some

541
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 3: good stuff. They're going to Oh yeah, I know that's

542
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 3: the bummer, and that's for bigger reasons than a stupid

543
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: hockey tournament.

544
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 2: But it would be fun to see. Uh, some of those.

545
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,199
Speaker 4: Big going to get hurt. That's good. Well, unless he

546
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 4: gets hurt Ice Fishing.

547
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 3: Didn't el Nino get hurt on an airplane once he

548
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,719
Speaker 3: was hanging off the wing. I mean, people do stupid

549
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 3: stuff with idle time. I don't think Coroll caprice Off's

550
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 3: that guy. But he'll get an opportunity to rest during

551
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 3: the Olympic break and that'll be good for him, hopefully

552
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,479
Speaker 3: good for the Wild coming down the stretch.

553
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,840

599
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: atmosphere down there and then obviously the hockey. It's so good.

603
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: it's such a such a great chance and great opportunity

604
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,400

608
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 3: following hopefully a win over the.

609
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 2: Shark over the Sharks at the Shark Tank.

610
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 3: But then we'll get John Hines on, We'll probably do

611
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: eight player interviews, and then finally we'll throw it upstairs

612
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 3: to Halvey to bring us all the play by play

613
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 3: action of what should be. I mean, this is setting

614
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 3: up for I know everyone looks forward to USA Canada,

615
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 3: but this is pretty darn good. A New Year's Eve

616
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 3: battle between the Americans and the Swedes. I'd have to

617
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 3: imagine you're excited to call that one.

618
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Sweden's had a very similar run here.

619
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: Through the preliminary run, they've you know, had the big

620
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: victory over Germany and then the couple of close battles

621
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: with Switzerland and in Slovakia as well, so you know

622
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: this is going to be certainly Timysay's toughest challenge yet.

623
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 1: And obviously there is the history between Sweden in US,

624
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: and it's just I mean the fact that you have

625
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: it on New Year's Eve where I mean downtown Saint

626
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 1: Paul's gonna be rocking. It's it's you know, it's one

627
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: of those cans. Or if you can, if you can

628
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: make it out there, certainly do so. Take a car

629
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 1: available world, use them into six dot com, go through

630
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: that official portal there there and get your get your

631
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 1: butt down to Grand getson Arena tomorrow night if you can.

632
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 1: Obviously would love you, love for you to join us

633
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: on on camp in. But uh, I'm very very much

634
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 1: excited to see, uh, you know what this team can do.

635
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 1: And it's been you know, they had moments where you're

636
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 1: shaking your head and you're worried, and then they come

637
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: back and they they really do impress and and they

638
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: get that they've gotten the wind that they needed to get.

639
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: But again, Sweden I think be certainly the toughest tests

640
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: and it's probably going to have that test that going

641
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: into a quarterfinal round where things will only continue to

642
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: get more difficult.

643
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the excitement about this tournament. It just ramps

644
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 3: up as it goes on. You get through the round robin,

645
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 3: you let the cards the fall where they may, and

646
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: then you get into the the metal rounds and the quarterfinals.

647
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 2: Like you said, start on Friday.

648
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 3: It looks like the Americans have the five o'clock game

649
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 3: on Friday in around number one and now the question

650
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 3: or in the quarterfinals. Now the question is who will

651
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 3: they face as the number one or number two seeds,

652
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 3: So that remains to be seen. The big thing they

653
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 3: can do is help themselves tomorrow with a win over Sweden.

654
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,479
Speaker 3: I've had an opportunity to hear a good chunk of

655
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 3: the play by play that both you and Mark Parrish

656
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 3: are providing to the listeners. Did you guys have a

657
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 3: conversation prior to the tournament? I mean, you both are

658
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 3: season professionals. You know what you're doing. But was it

659
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 3: a thing where you guys talked about it in advance

660
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 3: to let the free bird breathe a little bit coming

661
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 3: out of a goal, or is it just something that

662
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 3: happened organically?

663
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: Oh no, I mean Mark Parrish. He's a pro, and

664
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: he's called many games, and I think he knows the

665
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: right time to win, you know, when it is his

666
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: turn to come in and analyze. And he is so

667
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: good with the analyzing of of the the goals and

668
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: everything else. So we didn't really have an actual and

669
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: in fact, I will say this too, is we we've

670
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: been talking about this for the better part of a

671
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: year on our Wednesday and Friday mornings when he comes

672
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: into the Power Trip, and I don't think we we

673
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: got anything, you know, too specific. But what's what's been

674
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: cool is is just kind of how natural it has been.

675
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: I think that does come from you know, being on

676
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: the radio with him for for for multiple years. And

677
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: actually we had called games back in the day with

678
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: the high school hockey tournament, so we do have some history.

679
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: But no, it's it's it's been really natural working with

680
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: Mark and and you know, he's about as excited and

681
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: energetic as I've ever seen. Obviously, he is a Team

682
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: USA guy through and through, played in this tournament, played

683
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: in the Olympics or that Red, White, and Blue, strong

684
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: and uh and now he's he's you know, living vicariously.

685
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: I think through the guys down there on the ice

686
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: and loving every second of it. So it's all passion,

687
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: it's all just you know, being there and just again

688
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: being so so grateful that we get to do this

689
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: on a night casis now and just can't wait. I

690
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: can't wait to get back at it tomorrow afternoon.

691
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, you talk about Mark Parrish, and I was talking

692
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,719
Speaker 3: to Brett about some of the guys we've had on

693
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: Beyond the Pond over the course of the last month

694
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 3: leading up to this event. And Parish as diehard team

695
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 3: USA as they come and rooting for the Red, White

696
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: and Blue, of course. But go back to John Mansich,

697
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 3: a guy that played in the sixties. You know, he's

698
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 3: put he can't believe that this tournament is finally in

699
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 3: Minnesota again. Zach PARIZI we talked to him, Phil Howsley

700
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 3: last week. Tony Garnado was well doing some fine work

701
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 3: there on the TV side. There's something special about this tournament,

702
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 3: no doubt. Give me the strength and the weaknesses of

703
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 3: this USA squad. I watch them and it feels like

704
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 3: an all star team, But at the same time they're

705
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 3: not clicking like one just yet.

706
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 2: Is there too much talent?

707
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 3: If that's even possible, or what's standing in their way

708
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 3: of going and putting up a three peat.

709
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: Well, that's that's certainly I think clicking is the right term.

710
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they just they've got so much challenge. It's

711
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: just that the challenges of course harnessing it. And you know,

712
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: every one of these guys are you know, their best

713
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: player basically on whatever team they came from to to

714
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: come out here and play, and so it's you know,

715
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: it's it's a little tough to to you know, go

716
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: from being the guy to being just one of the guys.

717
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: And you know, we're seeing that, I think in real time.

718
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: You know, we said especially against Slovakia, where you know,

719
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: it started out a little shaky. You know, they came

720
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: out flying and they were they were moving the puck

721
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: and they were you know, got some great scoring opportunities

722
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: in the first couple of minutes. But then again it

723
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: just it sort of unraveled into this you know, everybody

724
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: trying to maybe do it themselves or you know, make

725
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: you know, be way to fancy with it. And that's

726
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: that's a problem throughout the tournament as everybody's trying to

727
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: make this high right highlight reel geek and and and

728
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: not just just moving the part properly and and a

729
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: lot of times the tam USA is paying for that

730
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: by you know, giving up a breakaway or an odd

731
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 1: man rush the other way. But I think the third

732
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: period in particular yesterday was about as encouraging as we've

733
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: seen all year. They obviously give up the one goal

734
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: late in the third, by thewis had two goals uh

735
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: to close that thing out. Especially even in the second

736
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 1: half of that that second period as well, they seem

737
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: to find a way to really harness all that talent.

738
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: You know, we're seeing guys like Chase reed or stepping

739
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: up in the wake of Cole Hudson, who uh, you know,

740
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: went at just a terrible injury on Saturday and was

741
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: able to Uh. We were very lucky that we found

742
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: out that after the game that he eventually did make

743
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: it back with the team and now he's day day.

744
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: But you know, scary moments there. That's a big loss.

745
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: But you said, guys like you know, Chase are stepping up,

746
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,279
Speaker 1: and you know some of the some other you know

747
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: greats uh, you know guys are are stepping up as well.

748
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,919
Speaker 1: I mean, we look at Adam kleeber Minnesota Dluth. He's

749
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: been a solid force in that blue line right now,

750
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: and so it's it's everybody's again having to pitch in

751
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: to make up for the lost talent, but then also

752
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 1: recognize that tail are also still very, very talented and

753
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: figure out a way to use that, you know, properly,

754
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: and uh, you know we we always talk about special

755
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: teams too. That's another thing that that seemed to again

756
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: get better as the last three games have not on,

757
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: especially last night against Slovakia, and they will need to

758
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: have those special teams clicking on all cylinders here, firing

759
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: on all cylinders coming up against Sweden, Dan whoever they

760
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: play Friday, and hopefully the next two after.

761
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,919
Speaker 3: That, Yeah, for sure, and you'll hear all that action

762
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 3: either here on k F A N or KFA the

763
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 3: Plus led by Zach Halverson most likely, and hopefully with

764
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 3: Mark Parrish. If he's not available, then you're stuck with

765
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 3: me and we'll have a lot of fun as sitting

766
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 3: up there in the al shape press box calling the

767
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 3: action through January fifth, as long as the Americans are

768
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 3: still battling for a medal, give me a name that

769
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 3: you didn't expect that you've watched thus far in the

770
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 3: tournament that you really enjoyed watching that maybe you didn't

771
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 3: know as much about coming into the tournament, but three

772
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 3: games deep you know this name pretty well.

773
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 1: Now you know. It's really hard because obviously all these

774
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: names are so so familiar. So I don't want to,

775
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: you know, insult anybody too much, but I will say,

776
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Will he knew how good he was coming in,

777
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: and it's not a major surprise, but to have, you know,

778
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,399
Speaker 1: three game winners through three games played in the World

779
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: Junior Championship is all the more just of I mean,

780
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: he is I believe a plus five and through through

781
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: three games as well, he's coming up in the moment.

782
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: He's again not always, not always flashy, but when he

783
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: is the puck he is he's dangerous. I think a J.

784
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: Spellacy was a key part to the success of Team

785
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 1: USA yesterday. He worked so hard in the opensive zone,

786
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, for some turnovers, made some plays happen, was

787
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: able to get a goal himself. But see, I would

788
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 1: say a J Spellacy maybe in the less flashier side.

789
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: But even again, even knowing what he what what you

790
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: know his his reputation has been Will Zeller's you know,

791
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 1: Maple grow Native really representing the state of hockey well

792
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 1: on the international stage, you know, getting the goals when necessary,

793
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: and I have has a wonderful shot, just one of

794
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: the many obviously great shots on this team USA squad.

795
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 3: All right, one last question for you, and I don't

796
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,879
Speaker 3: think this is a dumb question. Actually, the way you've

797
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 3: answered a previous question like this before to get into

798
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 3: the preposterous statement tournament, we know that you'd rather call

799
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,240
Speaker 3: a high school game and the boys State High School

800
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 3: Hockey Tournament than a Stanley Cup final. That's what I

801
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 3: think was entered into the PST tournament not all that

802
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 3: long ago. So how does this compare to the State

803
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 3: high School Hockey Tournament, which.

804
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 2: I know you love and you live and breathe it.

805
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: And if White Bear ever gets out of the first round, boy,

806
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 3: you're just gonna have one heck of a fine day

807
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 3: up there on white Bear Lake. But this is international hockey, healthy,

808
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 3: You're representing a country, not just your little community. How

809
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 3: does the World Juniors compare to the boys State High

810
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 3: School Hockey Tournament.

811
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: It's it's so, it's so, I don't know. I've been

812
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: trying to answer that question myself, and it's it's it's

813
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: so different and it's such a good way. This is,

814
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 1: this is on a whole new level. I mean, this

815
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: is the speed of the game, the skill. Obviously you

816
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: know we're only just beginning here on this. I I

817
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: will tell you this, I don't think it's going to

818
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: be anywhere close in terms of of thrill between this

819
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,919
Speaker 1: and the nice Hockey tournament this week with with game

820
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: tomorrow night and then hopefully beyond, So I think that,

821
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: you know, with all that on the line, I think

822
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: this might edge out the high school hockey tournament on

823
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 1: a on an individual game basis and and certainly on

824
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 1: an individual tournament basis. I don't know if I had

825
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: still have fun regardless if I'm calling this tournament, even

826
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 1: if I'm in Sweden or wherever this tournament is, but

827
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: the fact that it is on uh, you know, on

828
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,479
Speaker 1: the American soil, but stand up hockey soil, and being

829
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: able to celebrate this, this great tournament that you know,

830
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,280
Speaker 1: I remember waking up in the morning at four o'clock

831
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 1: in the morning to watch it on you know, NHL

832
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: network because it was you know, across the pond, and

833
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,879
Speaker 1: and you know the fact that you know, you could

834
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: watch this all your life and to see this thing finally,

835
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, in this building. I mean, I was watching

836
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 1: highlights last night on TV and I'm like, it's just

837
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: so cool to see this, this this event here and

838
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: then they have the opportunity to call it. It's It's

839
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: been a very very special week and I hope it

840
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 1: continues to be that way, and hopefully we have a

841
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: few more opportunities coming up.

842
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 2: That's on the international stage.

843
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 3: And take me to high school then, real quick, is

844
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 3: this the year finally for White Bear?

845
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 2: Tell me this is their year? Are they stacked for success?

846
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: I think you know, they've as goot a shot as

847
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 1: they've ever had. You know, they took kill Mury to

848
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,879
Speaker 1: a one goal loss, but they've had some some really

849
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 1: good wins and really good tides. It's been an up

850
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 1: and down year, but.

851
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 2: We don't celebrate moral victories healthy.

852
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: But we'll get them back in February or March or

853
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: wherever they whenever they play again, hopefully in that section

854
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: final and Morgan is to call in Saint Paul.

855
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 3: That's what accounts Helvey, Thank you for doing this. Can't

856
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 3: wait to work by your side. On New Year's Eve

857
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 3: tomorrow once that exhaust of long postgame show, can it

858
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 3: finally wraps up as the Wild take on the San

859
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 3: Jose Sharks. Hopefully we can wrap it up in under

860
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 3: an hour and we'll get to you sometime probably during

861
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 3: the third period of that game against Sweden.

862
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. We'll get to you by the second

863
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 2: for sure.

864
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: I can't wait. Kevin, then help you. Hope you join us.

865
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun, all right there.

866
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 3: He is Helvey, the voice of the world juniors here

867
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 3: on the fan and KF and plus I give Helvy

868
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 3: as much grief as anyone, maybe outside of the guys

869
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 3: on the Power Trip. But he is doing a fantastic job,

870
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 3: so easy to listen to. Hopefully had fun listening to

871
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 3: him and Perish in the first three games. It looks

872
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 3: like it's me and him tomorrow and then we'll see

873
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 3: what happens as the tournament rolls on this weekend. Hopefully

874
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 3: Perish back in that l Shaver or Press Boys, because

875
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 3: he's a natural two man. He should be calling that game,

876
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 3: especially when it's the Red, White and Blue he belongs

877
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 3: to behind the mic, So hopefully we can do that.

878
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 3: I want to get to a break, give me one

879
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 3: or two more talkbacks before we get to Russo at

880
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 3: the end of the two o'clock hour.

881
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 8: Hey boys, Absolutely, I'm on the bandwagon. However, I have

882
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 8: two concerns. Number one Colorado, Number two Dallas. We need

883
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 8: to figure out how to consistently get past those two clubs.

884
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 8: Black Friday was awesome, However, that needs to be the

885
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 8: norm and not the anomaly. Hughes needs to be the

886
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 8: answer to that. Hopefully that is Knock on ice, Let's

887
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 8: go wild.

888
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,919
Speaker 3: Knock on ice, good touch, keep those talkbacks coming again.

889
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 3: We're asking you, are you a believer? Not to bring

890
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 3: in the monkeys, but are you a believer? Are you

891
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 3: still skeptical? What made you jump back on the bandwagon

892
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 3: after a tough ousting in the first round of the

893
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 3: playoffs last year to Vegas? What brought you back over

894
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 3: to the dark side? Or are you still skeptical? Do

895
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 3: you need more? Despite fifty four points in the first

896
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 3: forty games and two potential fifty goal scorers on this roster,

897
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 3: two guys in the top three in the top five

898
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 3: of goal scoring in the National Hockey League, Yes, pravalstad

899
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 3: Dinolo eurov there's all sorts of great things to hang

900
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 3: your hat on. What is it that you need to

901
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 3: see still to bring you back onto the bandwagon for

902
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Wild?

903
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 2: One more talk back.

904
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 9: Hi, This is Kippen wood Berry, totally excited about the

905
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 9: Wild and totally on the bandwagon. Great goaltending, top scoring

906
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 9: Hughes rounds out the defense.

907
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 2: All looks good.

908
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 9: All we need now is a powerhouse center like Tage

909
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 9: Thompson or Ryan O'Reilly go wild.

910
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:34,919
Speaker 1: Yep.

911
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 3: I think that's on a lot of people's wish lists.

912
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 3: We'll see what Russo says about that and more. He'll

913
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 3: join us after the break. By the way, going back

914
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 3: to your conversation about the goal song, Brett, this is

915
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 3: a great example. Eric and circle pines shout terrible goal

916
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 3: song one hundred percent. Meanwhile, the very next text from

917
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 3: the six to five to one area code blakemore is insane.

918
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,959
Speaker 3: We love shout every time we go to the game,

919
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,760
Speaker 3: so it's subjective one hundred percent.

920
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,720
Speaker 2: In my opinion, it's terrible. Yeah, don't let it ruin

921
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 2: your day.

922
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 3: Hopefully we hear it a lot because that means they're

923
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 3: scoring some goals and who knows what happens in the future.

924
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 2: I do know this much.

925
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 3: On the other side of break, everyone's favorite blogger will

926
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 3: join us right here on the fan.

927
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 2: It's Michael Russo next.
