Matt talked a little bit about it in 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:04.440 the last hour and he talked about Max Crosby out 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:08.280 of Eastern Michigan in his future with the Silver and Black. 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:11.640 Max Nowell remain in US. 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:17.360 Yes, I am Max is an elite player, and I've 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.640 been very upfront from the from the start when I 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.120 got here that you know, we're we're in the business 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:23.800 of having really good players on the team and we 0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:26.240 need we need a lot more of them, and you 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:28.400 know it's hard to build a great team without elite players. 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:31.680 What has been your communication? Like with Crosby was less 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:32.400 a month or so. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:34.800 Max and I have a great relationship. He's in the 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:36.000 building every day getting healthy. 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:36.400 Right now. 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:39.120 We talk on the phone, we text, So I have 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:40.160 a great relationship with Max. 0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:43.280 The Silver and Black are back. 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:44.560 Other trade talk. 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.080 The Miami Dolphins have got to figure out what to 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:48.400 do with a tongue of the law. 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.920 They say everything is on the table, all are welcome. 0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:57.920 I believe it's somewhere in the neighborhood of ninety million 0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:01.240 dollars of dead cap that they would take a hit 0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.640 on if they were just to cut him without a 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:07.280 team absorbing some of that salary to try to ease 0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.040 that burden. But he is not expected to be on 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:12.679 the Miami Dolphins next season, so interesting to see how 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.920 they're going to try to work that. Some people speculating 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:20.520 that he could find himself backing up Justin Herbert in 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:23.760 Los Angeles. Should he just be cut straight out and 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:24.920 have all that cash to lean on. 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:30.640 The Houston Texans say that CJ. Stroud trade Rimmers are moronic, 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:35.320 You moron. The Atlanta Falcons say they will release quarterback 0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:38.520 Kirk Cousins next month, making him a free agent, and 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:43.600 the Eagles have said they can't guarantee. Well, this guy 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:47.559 was a big problem for them wide receiver AJ Brown. Well, 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:51.480 maybe it's because he hates the quarterback Jalen Hurts, who's 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:57.679 more of like a running back type. But hee, oh geeee. 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:02.680 Let's go go see what the birds birds and Matt 0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:07.080 there's WNBA news. 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:07.760 Yes there is. Thanks for leaving that for me. 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:11.640 Damn you know we that NFL stuff. 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.599 A Petrus was doing the news and then all of 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:16.840 a sudden, Matt took over and at six eighteen we 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.840 can pinpoint it exactly was the moment Matt started talking 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:22.640 that everybody tuned out of the Petros in money shows. 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:24.000 So maybe we got a little bit of a problem 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.840 here with one of the folks. The league told the 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:31.680 league's Players Association, this is the WNBA folks and teams 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:35.520 on Monday that both sides must agree to a new 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:39.680 collective bargaining agreement by March tenth if they want the 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:44.480 twenty twenty sixth schedule to remain unchanged. The biggest sticking 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:48.240 point between the two sides is revenue sharing. In twenty 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:52.520 twenty five, the WNBA, for the first time ever ever 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:55.920 this league has been around for almost thirty years. 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:57.880 Don Staley's grand old now. 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:04.920 First time ever nerrated enough revenue to trigger sharing with players. Obviously, 0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:07.559 thank you to the Caitlin Clark phenomenon. 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:09.199 Not just Caitlin Clark. 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:18.080 Just Caitlin Clark. What Matt Aja Wilson is an exceptional 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:25.079 and exceptional player. Sabrina Ionescu, It's fantastic. Diana Tarassi and 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:31.120 Rebecca Lobo our forces to be reckoned with Lobo Lobo 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:34.640 still up there, Don Staley. Swoops is what's just the 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:35.800 one that's really bitter? 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:36.640 Swoops. 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.160 Somebody's stay still coaching at South Carolina. 0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.160 Somebody's very bitter on television. 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:46.600 I think it is Swoops. I believe Swoops because Staley's 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:47.400 still coaching. 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:50.160 Up as a Southern American. You said something that got 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:51.160 up underneath my skin. 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:55.000 I am. I have kind of kept an eye on 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.199 this just I do that I left it for you. 0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:58.760 Matt Why I left it for you. 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:01.880 Right therelast time I checked, they weren't happy with the 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:07.960 housing stipend that they were requesting in lieu of additional 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:09.559 salary that would be paid. 0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.640 Just you know, you know, they got out to cross 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:15.800 all the tea's not you know what I'm. 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:19.320 Luck to them. May they get every cent that they 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:22.000 are worth. That is why I think there's a little 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:22.360 bit of a. 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:26.160 Oh mad mad and you know, to be fair, people 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:28.240 tuned out when to a tongue of Aloa joined the 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:29.400 Chargers is the backup? 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:33.040 That's pretty said commentary on us. 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:36.440 We'll be back with more Petrol said Money Talk Some 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:38.880 Hockey coming up next on m five seventy.

Kings 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:49.880 are back after the Olympic break. Everybody's talking hockey and 0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:55.280 they will be at home tomorrow versus Vegas, Thursday versus Edmonton, 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:57.680 and Saturday versus Calgary. 0:15:57.720 --> 0:15:59.600 If you want to get that Canadian flavor. 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:04.280 Very exciting stuff here to discuss it all because everybody's 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:08.440 talking hockey on your Southern California Toyota Daters Celebrity hotline. 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:11.680 It is Hall of Famer and star to us all 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:13.480 Lucky Luke Robotime. 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:14.320 What's cracking? Luke? 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:14.760 How are you? 0:16:15.440 --> 0:16:17.360 How are you a long time to talk? 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:17.960 How have you been? 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:19.160 We're doing okay? 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:21.360 You know, strikes and gunners over here in the world 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:23.800 of great sports talk just riding the Dodger wave. 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:29.120 But have you are you surprised? How excited? I mean 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:30.000 last year was. 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.840 Crazy with the four Nations thing that none of us 0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:35.440 have ever even heard of, and then this year with 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.320 the Olympics or we're much more familiar with. I mean 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.240 everybody these games are at five in the morning and whatever, 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.720 but everybody loves it. Everybody's involved. Does that surprise you, Luke? 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.120 It doesn't surprise me because I kind of knew, like 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.320 going in, especially what happened last year where we had 0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:56.720 the Four Nations tournament and Team Canada and the US 0:16:56.880 --> 0:16:59.640 went at it. They had fights and so forth, and 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:02.680 so so it doesn't surprise me this year because the 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:06.640 talent level is so high. You know, do I wish 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:08.720 the game would have been a little bit later in 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:12.159 five am? Yes, because you know, you go there to 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:16.040 try to sell our game. But but it doesn't surprise 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:20.280 me the attention up because the level of talent is unbelievable. 0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:23.840 You know, like any one of those countries Swedes, Finland, 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:28.359 Czechs could win, but Canada and the US are the 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:30.760 two best teams, so it makes it really good for 0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.120 a game when they compete play against each other. 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.040 You've competed in it before, Luke. I mean, you know 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:39.520 what it means to see team Canada and Team USA 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:42.119 kind of how how big of a deal is it? 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.680 Like how unlikely was the upset? It just felt like 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.440 every time we would get to this point, USA would be, 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.159 you know, coming in second place, Canada would would be 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:54.159 the champ. And that's just kind of how it was. 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:56.399 How big of an upset was it, And just if 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.920 you can put it into context too, based on sort 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:01.639 of the population of the team and what players were 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:03.119 out there for each country. 0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:08.000 Well, the best player in the world is Connor McDavid. 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:13.280 It's not even close, but the level of the I 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:17.200 called the Jack Hughes and those guys is really really close. 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:22.320 So the difference one that big. So before the tournament, 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:26.960 a lot of hockey knowledgeable people said USA had the 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:29.959 best goalie and on a one game situation, a lot 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.680 of times the goalie can steal a game, and I 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:37.160 do believe Canada had more chances to during that game, 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:41.720 but third goalie was stole the game. He was incredible. 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:45.320 Connor got won of the best game in the history 0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:47.160 of the game. I mean, it's amazing what he did. 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:52.160 That was incredible, It was exciting and I would imagine. 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:54.359 I don't know if you felt it after four Nations 0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:56.840 last year that Petros was talking about what does it 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.200 do for the NHL? What does it do for the 0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:02.119 Los Angeles Kings. When you have a whole Nations, you know, 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:05.720 incredibly invested in this sport and then see you know, 0:19:05.880 --> 0:19:07.560 this level of play come out of it, do you 0:19:07.640 --> 0:19:08.320 feel that bump? 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:13.359 Yeah, we usually feel that bump. I mean, obviously in 0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:15.880 your market, you want to win games, you know, I say, 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:19.120 if our team starts winning games and having a good run, 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:21.520 now it's gonna bring a lot more attention. 0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:22.440 I think. 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:24.800 What I mean actually both teams for the US, the 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:29.520 women's team and the men's team, what they've done brought 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:33.359 some attention to the game of hockey, which for me, 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.200 ever since I've been Los Angeles, have been about growing 0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:39.119 the game and getting as many kids possible to play. 0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:44.080 So I think it's there's some momentum that that's gonna 0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:47.800 that's gonna keep going off of that and uh, you know, 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:51.879 we just but you definitely want your team locally to perform. 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:52.600 That's the key. 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:54.680 What's it like, Luke? 0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:56.600 For these guys that want to kill you, I mean 0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:59.320 they were really, that's what made it fun is that 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.320 these guys want it. I mean, it's not like the 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:04.359 NBA All Star Game out there where they're you know, 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.200 dunking the ball and shooting threes and laughing at each 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.720 other barely breaking a sweat. These guys are out there 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.840 trying to kill each other. How how is that so 0:20:13.000 --> 0:20:15.840 different from the NBA And now all of a sudden boom, 0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:19.000 they're going to be back to playing NHL hockey within days. 0:20:19.840 --> 0:20:21.080 How do you face a guy. 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:22.719 If you knew him from the other team and now 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:25.040 he's on your NHL team and you just wanted to 0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.600 kill that guy you were wrapped in the flag. Everybody's 0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:30.119 all angry. I mean, how do we recover from this 0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:32.080 with the NHL starting again? 0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:36.160 It is kind of that that part is crazy, how 0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:40.040 hard to compete and how physical those games were, and 0:20:40.240 --> 0:20:42.920 to come back and having to be in the same 0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.440 locker rooms. I think they'll look at each other. The 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:48.320 guy that won, obviously can can is go one on 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:52.720 the other guy, but definitely it's it's it's one of 0:20:52.800 --> 0:20:58.600 those things that it's a weird ceiling. But that being said, 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:00.560 once you get back in your team and a playoffs 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:02.840 such a long war and eighty two game schedule and 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:07.520 you got a battle together. It's a weird dealing. Now, 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.760 I do get a kick. I remember reading a few 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.600 years ago Kobe when he was playing I think it 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:16.840 was for the in the Olympics. He said he was 0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:20.720 gonna run pog assault. Yeah, and everybody on the US 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:23.800 team was shocked. I'm like, we get that. Every shift, 0:21:24.880 --> 0:21:28.000 everybody's running each other and they playing the same team. 0:21:29.560 --> 0:21:32.880 So you know, there's there's some some great, obviously great 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.040 moments that come out of the Olympics. But for you selfishly, 0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:40.800 you know, Kevin Fiala's out there representing his country, Switzerland 0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:43.640 and now he's lost for the year. We talk about 0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:45.320 it all the time, right, We have like Sho hail 0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:48.160 Tani and Yamamoto going to the World Baseball Classic now 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:51.159 and the Dodgers are like, eh, not crazy about it. 0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:54.040 Kind of what is what is your feeling about guys 0:21:54.119 --> 0:21:56.680 going to play in the Olympics. Like you said, you're 0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:59.800 getting after it every single shift, But it just feels 0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:02.280
