00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,920

Speaker 2: Play motherfucking free Bird. It's Kelly Panic.

8
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,360

9
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: of this weekend's Vegas trip celebrating the women of tm USA.

10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: I sat down with Kelly at the Winter Olympics back

11
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: in February, just a few days after the women's hockey

12
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: team won gold in Milan. We talked about the roller

13
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: coaster of emotions she felt throughout that gold medal game,

14
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: from pregame vibes to postgame celebration, how she felt representing

15
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: Team USA during a fraught time in our country, three

16
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: weeks living in the athlete village, and where the hell

17
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: that in Keller we Trust flag came from. It was

18
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: such a great convo. Hope you enjoy the chance to

19
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: listen again or for the first time. Plus what's on

20
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: the docket for Flaves? She weekend in Vegas. It's coming

21
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: up right after this Welcome back slices. Before we get

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: to our interview with Kelly, I want to let y'all

23
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 1: in on some of the details for this.

24
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 2: Weekend's Vegas Shenanigans. You remember.

25
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: It all started a couple of years ago when legendary

26
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: rapper Flavor Flave read about Maggie Stephens, an Olympic champion

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: with Team USA's women's water polo team. Maggie wrote about

28
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 1: having to work multiple jobs to stay afloat, So Flave

29
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: stepped in and not only sponsored Maggie, but the entire

30
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: women's team and the entire men's water polo team too.

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: He also supported the sliding sports at this year's Winter Olympics,

32
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: rooting on athletes like friend of the Show and gold

33
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: medalist Alana Meyers Taylor. So when Flave saw the US

34
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: men's hockey team receive a high profile White House celebration

35
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: for their gold medal while the women's team, also champions,

36
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: got overlooked, he decided to step in again. He started

37
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: planning a celebration for the women's team in Vegas, started

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: to GoFundMe that ultimately raised over one hundred thirty thousand

39
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: dollars and got a ton of brands on board. It

40
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: turned into what's called she Weekend, short for Sports, Hospitality

41
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: and Entertainment, a four day event taking place in Las

42
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: Vegas with partners MGM, Delta, Dove and the Gist on

43
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: the itinerary, a parade down the Strip, Backstreet Boys show

44
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: at the Sphere, plus a meet and greet with them

45
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: Ed Sheeran at Allegiant Stadium with the meet and greet,

46
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: pool parties, dinners, gifting suites and more. These ladies are

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: really getting the VIP treatment they deserve, and of course

48
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: I'll be there, not correcting any onlookers who assume I'm

49
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: also some sort of Olympic hero. One of the many

50
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: athletes invited to Vegas is Kelly Panics, so we figured

51
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: why not revisit that chat without further ado.

52
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 2: Here's my conversation with Kelly joining us now.

53
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: She's a two time gold medalist here at the Milan

54
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: Cortina Games and the twenty eighteen Olympics, and a silver

Speaker 1: forward for the Minnesota frost of the PWHL and a

58
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: two time PWHL champion. She was a Patty cast My

00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: Award finalist and two time national champion at University of Minnesota,

60
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: one of just six women from the US to have

61
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: two Olympic Golds in hockey. She just released her third

62
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: beer collab, Been There Won that Olympic edition. It's Kelly Panic. Kelly,

63
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: thanks for coming back on the show. Nice to sit

64
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: down with you in person.

65
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always fun to be in person, and you know,

66
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: after some exciting wins even better. Yeah, thank you for

67
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 3: letting me wear your medal anytime, anytime, life highlight. I

68
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 3: want to start by having you take us through the

69
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: emotions of the gold medal game, beat by beat. And

70
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: I know it's hard to go back and remember after

71
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 3: you've felt the euphoria of winning, but see if you

72
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 3: can access the part of you that was in that

73
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 3: present moment.

74
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: So let's start with pregame. What was the vibe in

75
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: the locker room.

76
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 3: I feel like I have a tendency of when I

77
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 3: wake up on a game like that, whether it's a

78
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: national championship, world championship, Olympic or medal game, you tend

79
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: to have a vibe and sometimes it's like feel really

80
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: good and sometimes like the worst case ones is what

81
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: it really doesn't and it's few and far between where

82
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 3: you feel like you really doesn't feel great. But waking

83
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 3: up on that day just we're feeling very calm. And

84
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 3: even throughout our preparation with our team, we've had a

85
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: seven o'clock game, which here felt it's felt like it's

86
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 3: like nine o'clock or it's four, like, yeah, it's late late,

87
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: and seven is very normal for us, so it's kind

88
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 3: of back to normal routine timing everything, and US athletes

89
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 3: are very routine oriented when it comes to our sports,

90
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 3: right So, and then in the locker room, it's been

91
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 3: such a blessing I think with the mix of players

92
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 3: we have with experience, so a lot of us that

93
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 3: have been in the moment.

94
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: And a lot of that haven't.

95
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 3: It's been really fun throughout the Olympics to have the

96
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 3: girls that haven't been here because they're just so excited

97
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 3: for everything and you kind of get to re experience

98
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 3: that like fresh excitement and going through that go metal

99
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 3: that you could tell that there's some nerves, you know,

100
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 3: from other people, but I actually had to do the

101
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: you know, pregame interview on the ice during war ups,

102
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 3: and I just remember feeling like, no, we worked hard

103
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 3: to get here. The hardest part is giving yourself a

104
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 3: chance to be in this game. This is the fun part.

105
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 2: More nerves from the people who had been there before

106
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 2: the new ones. I think both.

107
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 3: But I think for me, like you listed the accomplishments

108
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: that I've had in my career and been very lucky

109
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 3: to be a part of those team games, and I

110
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 3: think everything in this point in my hockey career is

111
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 3: just feels extra at this point, right Like as a kid,

112
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 3: I can only dream about being a national champion, being Olympian,

113
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 3: winning a goal medal, and to get to do that

114
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: and have the chance to continue to do that is

115
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: really special, and you just want it for the people

116
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 3: that in twenty twenty two didn't have that outcome, or

117
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: I thought of like Alex Carpenter, She's had such a

118
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 3: historic career as well. For her to be on an

119
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 3: Olympic team and then not be on one and then

120
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 3: fight to be back and you know, cement her legacy

121
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: as a hockey player and to finally get her goal medal,

122
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 3: Like you think of all of those moments, so I

123
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 3: think people, you know, had different levels of nerves. And

124
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 3: the one thing I felt like throughout the entire game

125
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: is that we always just knew we were going to

126
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: get it done, even until the end, whatever it took.

127
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 3: And as the game kind of started to take that

128
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 3: turn in the second period, that's where it felt like

129
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 3: our yea nowur clicking, like it's just a matter of time.

130
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let's go back to the first period. Because

131
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 1: Canona had your number a bit. They had a great strategy.

132
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: They were really slow in you down, which nobody had

133
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: been able to do during the games. Did you feel

134
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: a little back on your heels when you came out

135
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: and they were dominating play.

136
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we knew that they were going to

137
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 3: come out with a big push. That was something I

138
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 3: think going into our preliminary game with them, we were

139
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 3: expecting that as well, because I mean, frankly, throughout this

140
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,559
Speaker 3: season and the run up and the rivalary series games,

141
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: we've had their number and not in a way that

142
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 3: it didn't feel very characteristic of their team. I think

143
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 3: that was a lot of the commentary that you know,

144
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 3: we try to block out, but you hear some of it.

145
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: Whether it's you know, people questioning where's their passion, where's

146
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 3: their heart, where's their pride? And playing for their playing

147
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,799
Speaker 3: and I feel like that game was a lot more

148
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: you know, true to Hockey Canada. That's where I think,

149
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 3: you know, this team for us, we have a lot

150
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 3: of players that are new to this experience. It is

151
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 3: different when you put a gold medal game on the line, right, Like,

152
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 3: it's different than a preliminary game or even a quarterfinal

153
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 3: game that you're expected to win.

154
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: It's just a little bit different.

155
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: So for those players that are you know, being heavily

156
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: relied on and leaned on in some prominent roles, it

157
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 3: took a little bit for I think for our team

158
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: to get settled in, but that was I think the

159
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 3: biggest thing. For Get that first period under the way

160
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: and be reminded, it's o Canada, It's still Canada.

161
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: How well you've plead and they reminded you at the

162
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: beginning of the second period shorty from christ and O'Neill

163
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: shut out streak ends you're down for the first time

164
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: in the whole games. What was the feeling on the

165
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: bench and you know when you went into the locker room.

166
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that goal, that shorthanded goal kind

167
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 3: of was a wake up call. I think in some

168
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 3: ways just from the standpoint of like, yeah, we were

169
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: gonna you know, choices of consequences, Like if we're not

170
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 3: making good buck decisions, if we're not you know, sticking

171
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: to game plans and whatnot, there's gonna be some consequences,

172
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: right Like there. They have a lot of talent on

173
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: their team as well, so at that point I think

174
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 3: it actually sattled us a little bit. And then in

175
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 3: that second period that's really what when it felt like

176
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 3: we were able to get back to our game and

177
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 3: we missed some great you know chances, they made some

178
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 3: good saves, but it felt like we were kind of shifting,

179
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 3: shifting momentum back in our favor.

180
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: Sure, and definitely as the longer the.

181
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 3: Game goes, when those empty nets that we missed or

182
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 3: the big saves, you're like, Okay, that's that's another grade A.

183
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: You just there's only so many great A chances.

184
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking. I'm like, it's one of

185
00:07:58,560 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: two things.

186
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: Either their snake bit and they're going to keep almost

187
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: but not finishing, or they're due and like one of

188
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: these has to go and you can't keep this much

189
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: pressure on without finishing. It took a while though, So

190
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: before we get to the third period, let's talk locker room.

191
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,679
Speaker 1: Who's given the speech and what are they saying.

192
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,119
Speaker 2: It's a lot of people. I don't think it's anything

193
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: really big.

194
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: I think Hillary shared some things, Kendall has shared some things,

195
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 3: Lee shared some things.

196
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: I shared some things.

197
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 3: And some of it's from a hay let's settle in,

198
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 3: like we're playing our game now. Some of it's maybe

199
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 3: more tactical about hey, let's keep doing this from what

200
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 3: we see on the ice, lifting people up where we

201
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 3: need to. You know, sometimes it's when you can see

202
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: someone in the locker room, you know, their shoulders are down,

203
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 3: their heads down, they're maybe fighting in a little bit,

204
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 3: but just reminding them like we have your back, you

205
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 3: have our back, We have your back. We don't care

206
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: about the mistakes people make. It's about you know, how

207
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 3: do you respond? You know, there's at this point in

208
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 3: the game, we still have time to make up for it.

209
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: And with the amount of scoring power that we have

210
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 3: on our team and amount of talent that we have

211
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 3: in our team, I don't think anyone was doubting that

212
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: we were going to score.

213
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: I didn't have one.

214
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: Nothing on my Bengal board, that's for sure. I'm like,

215
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Okay, third period minus two and

216
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: a half minutes, You're on the doorstep over and over again.

217
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 2: Nothing's going in, time is running out? What are we doing?

218
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 2: What are we thinking? Yeah? We Actually it was interesting.

219
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: We got an offenses zone draw, which anytime you get

220
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 3: an offenses zone draw at that point in the game,

221
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 3: you're ready for that, you know, whistle. I don't know

222
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 3: if we actually don't know if we took a time

223
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 3: out of here as a TV timeout. I think it

224
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 3: was what do they call the power break, Yes, yeah,

225
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 3: which is really just a TV timeout.

226
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: I think it was a power breaking, not a time

227
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 2: I think so too.

228
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 3: And it was a pretty quick whistle, and I remember

229
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 3: the Canadians were like kind of upset. They're like, that

230
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 3: was really quick, because you know how important those those

231
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: whistles are in the power breaks, free time out. So

232
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 3: that's a huge thing for us, if you know, you

233
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 3: get that extra time out, get the players you want

234
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 3: out there for the six on five, kind of get organized,

235
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: get a face off plan going. That's something you know

236
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: that our coach actually did a really good job of

237
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 3: was having a lot of different face off options, and

238
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 3: we had ran a lot throughout the tournament throughout the

239
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 3: last four years with him, so it felt like the

240
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: six people on the ice were prepared, we had the

241
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 3: next six up ready to go. If they are there

242
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: were changes needed. And again when you look at I

243
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 3: mean Hill in and of itself, like whenever you have

244
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 3: her on your team, knowing you know how close she

245
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 3: was to breaking records for one, knowing what she's you know,

246
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 3: done at the Olympics personally and as a hockey player,

247
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 3: knowing you know what she said before this Olympics about

248
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 3: you know it probably being her last, and how much

249
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 3: it's meant to her to wear that jersey. You knew,

250
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 3: like if she's on the ice, she's gonna do everything

251
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 3: she can to get the job done.

252
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: And it's wild though, like when you actually I'm feeling

253
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: like mildly emotional as you're talking about it, because it's

254
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: actually wild to think about how the people that always

255
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: come up do, especially in hockey.

256
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 2: That's a deflection, you know what I mean.

257
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: It's not basketball where it's like Okay, I'm gonna take

258
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: my guy one on one and I'm gonna be better.

259
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: Everything has to go right. Robo has to set the

260
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: right players up. You have to get in the right

261
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: positions and hope that you're in place. And then she

262
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: gets a deflection on a Leilah Edwards like, yeah, blast

263
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: her from the top, and it's of course, eary night

264
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: you say that, but it's like not, of course, there's

265
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: a million great players that never get that moment.

266
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think that was something like I feel

267
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 3: like I said it over like almost after every shift,

268
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 3: keep doing the right things. We're doing good things to

269
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 3: give ourself chances.

270
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 2: Keep doing the right things.

271
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 3: And that play is it's not some crazy set play,

272
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 3: right Like, it's just a pretty routine hockey play where

273
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 3: in the six point five you're trying to open up

274
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 3: a shooting line and get the puck to the net.

275
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 3: Sometimes it looks really glamorous with the one timer and

276
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 3: sometimes it's that tip.

277
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 2: But getting Renee's face keep her from seeing what exactly,

278
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: And so that's that's something with Hillary.

279
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 3: I mean, she's like I think people give her kind

280
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 3: of pigeonhole her as like all this goal scorer, only

281
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 3: she does good things all across the ace. I mean

282
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 3: as a hockey player two undred foot defensively, offensively, and

283
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 3: she can score any which way. She can score with

284
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 3: the puck on her stick, she can score getting open,

285
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 3: she can score with those tips. Like watching her in practice,

286
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 3: you know, she was practicing a play earlier about tipping

287
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 3: a puck to the player on the back door off

288
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 3: of a shot, and I was like laughing, like, you're

289
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 3: you trying to rehearse that? But she she would, she

290
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 3: would do that, She would do that.

291
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so Hillary scores, everybody's sphincter's release.

292
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: Everyone relaxes a little bit. You know you're gonna get

293
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: that overtime session. You remind yourselves with the rules which

294
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: are different now going to be three on three, golden

295
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: goal wins up to twenty minutes, and if no one scores,

296
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 1: you just keep doing that until somebody does.

297
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: You go into the locker room. What are the vibes now,

298
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: who's given the speech? What are they saying?

299
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it was a lot of the same people,

300
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: a lot of logisticals If we had to confirm the rules,

301
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 3: make sure it was the full like is it ten minutes,

302
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 3: is it twenty?

303
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: Is it same sides? Do you switch ends?

304
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 3: In the PTERWHL you switch ends, you have a long change,

305
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 3: which makes a big difference. Talking about some tactical position

306
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 3: of your bench makes a difference. Yes, yeah, it's cheating.

307
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 3: You know, you can use that change sheer advantage. And

308
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: that's something for us, all of us that play in

309
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 3: the PBHL. We played throughout three now, so we have

310
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: a little bit more practice, so some of those reminders

311
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 3: to the college players that just do it less. And

312
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 3: so it was again it kind of had the same

313
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 3: feeling going into the third of just refocus, what do

314
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 3: we need to adjust, you know, sticking to what our

315
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 3: strengths are as individuals, as a team, and you know,

316
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 3: really having that belief that we're going to make it happen.

317
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 3: Everyone I spoke to in the mix zone after the game,

318
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 3: and then Hillary and I think Megan as well, everyone

319
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 3: kind of said it was just steady, like you didn't

320
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 3: feel like you needed the miracle.

321
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 2: On ice speech. Why is that?

322
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: Why does it feel like you were able to, even

323
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 1: in this adversity you had in face before, just be

324
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: like yeah, we got this, like we already know who

325
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: we are.

326
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: It's fine.

327
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

328
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 2: It actually reminded me a lot of twenty eighteen. That

329
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 2: was something similar.

330
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 3: I remember going into that third period we were done

331
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 3: a goal, and it was the same thing of just

332
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 3: you look around the room and like the leadership of

333
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 3: that team was so calm, and as someone who hadn't

334
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 3: been in that experience, they're in that environment in that moment,

335
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 3: if they felt calm, I'm like, okay, we're good.

336
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:30,599
Speaker 2: That's so.

337
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 3: I think it's the same thing. Yeah, exactly exactly. And

338
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: I think there's also an element to like with this

339
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: team specifically. I think everyone just knew so much of

340
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 3: what their role was. And I think when you feel

341
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 3: that trust that hey, this is my job, you got yours,

342
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 3: You're gonna do your job, I'm gonna do mine. We're

343
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 3: gonna pull that rope together. It's gonna take all of

344
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 3: us on this team to get the job done. Whoever's

345
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 3: number is called, they're ready to go. And I think

346
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 3: it's it's when you have that trust and belief in

347
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: each other, it makes it really easy to stay calm

348
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 3: because you're not worried about you know.

349
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: On you Yeah, And that was kind of a theme

350
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: for this team throughout both Rival Ruy Series and Olympics,

351
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: is it doesn't really matter who scores.

352
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 2: We're gonna set each other up.

353
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna make that last pass even if we have

354
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: a look for someone who has even even better.

355
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 2: Look like that trust was so clear throughout.

356
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that was a lot of

357
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 3: the talk too going into the Olympics was the US

358
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 3: went young, the Canadians kind of stayed with the same,

359
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 3: same group, and that you saw their experience come to

360
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 3: light in that game. And I think for us, you know,

361
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 3: those are younger players, the ones that people are don't

362
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 3: have to they had experience though.

363
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've been put on a big stage for the

364
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 2: last four years.

365
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 3: They've been given a lot of responsibility on our team

366
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 3: on the ice for the last you know, four years.

367
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: They've they've earned it and they've also built on it.

368
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 3: So it makes it really easy then to and it's

369
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 3: important too also the way they play hockey, like they

370
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 3: just play with this light, fun, fresh like they're just

371
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 3: it's really energetic to play with them. Like when you

372
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 3: see Caroline Harvey just whirling around out there and it's

373
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 3: like she can't be touched, or Laila somehow, some ways

374
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 3: likes to candles through four people and I don't understand

375
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 3: with how long her stick is, but she does it.

376
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: And so it's embodies a couple of people on the

377
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: way past exactly exactly.

378
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 3: So it's you have this great blend of people that

379
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 3: have been there, people that are fearless, people that again

380
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 3: are so confident in who they are as hockey player

381
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 3: that when that matches with the role they're given, it's

382
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 3: just very empowering.

383
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, Keller scores. Did you see it? Many people did not.

384
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, I saw it. I saw made a

385
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 3: great play, and I thought that was one of the

386
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 3: best games truly. Like I've seen her play sick two

387
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 3: hundred foot up and down the ice. I think a

388
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 3: lot of people see, you know, the highlights from her

389
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 3: career with the puck offensively, but I thought that was

390
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 3: one of her best games without the puck, leading the

391
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 3: charge offensively, with the ford check pulling her line mates

392
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 3: up into that backtrack. I think that's how that play started.

393
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 3: And she got that puck and made a really good

394
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 3: heads up play quickly, and I saw Meg get it,

395
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 3: and I saw her look over her shoulders. She had

396
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 3: time and look, oh she's gonna try it, like she's

397
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: gonna go for something here. Usually, like in those scenarios.

398
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 3: If you don't feel like you have the edge on

399
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 3: three on three exactly, you're gonna try to, you know,

400
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 3: get your numbers up, get it change whatever, play that

401
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: kind of cat and mouse game. And she was like, oh,

402
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: she's trying her and I mean, what a sick move.

403
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 2: Sick move.

404
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 3: And she's always been that really skilled player, but since

405
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 3: you know, KK has come on the team, Leila Winnie,

406
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 3: she kind of people forget. I think she's a defenders. Defender,

407
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 3: You're like surprised every time, even if you've seen it

408
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: before exactly. And again, those long defenders, they just have

409
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: a different, you know look about them. And she just

410
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 3: she made a great play, and she's always had that

411
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: offensive side to her game, and it was really, I mean,

412
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: just super happy for her to have that moment too,

413
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 3: because she is just such a great, i mean great

414
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 3: hockey player. But she's also one of those people in

415
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 3: our room that like just connects generations, like she's so fun.

416
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 3: She's she has that great balance of seriousness, professionalism, competitiveness,

417
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 3: but also just like nothing seems to really FaZe her.

418
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: She just enjoys the moment.

419
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 3: She brings in people to enjoy the moment with her

420
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 3: and so to see, you know, just the pure look

421
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 3: of joy on her face that she's like once stayed

422
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 3: on her feet. That part I was like, how did

423
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: you not fall? But those pictures of her like turning

424
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 3: the corner just like pure elation. It's it's just so

425
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: fitting for who she is.

426
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: I suggested that the nickname for the goal should be

427
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: dragged that bitch, backhanded it or dragged and backhanded that

428
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: bitch or something like that, but I don't think that's

429
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: probably gonna pass muster. Is there a better nickname the

430
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 1: team has come up with yet?

431
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 2: I don't.

432
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 3: I actually don't know. I if you haven't even I

433
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 3: feel like talked about it. We just keep looking like

434
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 3: watching the video being like in awe.

435
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: I've heard the Italian job. Oh yeah, I've heard star

436
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: dangled banner.

437
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 3: Okay, that's really close to the Joson Lammer though hers

438
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 3: was oops I did it again, But yeah, but that

439
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 3: was like the there was.

440
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,479
Speaker 2: A headline I think that said star spangled dangled. Oh

441
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 2: that's good.

442
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, Okay, we'll keep working, we'll brain shop

443
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: working on it. Yeah, during the postgame, you were skating

444
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: around with an in collor we Trust flag, and everyone

445
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: was like, how did they already have that unhanded?

446
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: Why was that made? Why was that there? And how

447
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: did you end up with you?

448
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, the en caller we Trust banner is I mean,

449
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 3: this is Hellan We've trusted in color.

450
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 2: So I think I'm pretty sure. It's twenty nineteen.

451
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 3: She's up for the top three for the Patty Kaz

452
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 3: Award in college and it was both our senior years.

453
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 3: My team was in the Frozen four, so we were

454
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 3: at the banquet. Her team, they were there to support her.

455
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 3: And so since she was named a finalist, a bunch

456
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 3: of her friends had made T shirts with that you know,

457
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 3: slogan on it, and they made that poster like they

458
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: had it hanging on the car outside the banquet amazing,

459
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: And I mean we didn't have anyone in the running.

460
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 3: So I'm like, yeah, I'm riding with Megan Keller, like

461
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 3: Keller for Kaz and Keller retrust. So you know, she

462
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 3: has a great group of friends. There's a ton of

463
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 3: Boston College Eagles out netting for the last week or so,

464
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 3: cheering assan and stuff. So anytime we've had a tournament

465
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 3: that they've been able to get to in an event,

466
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: they bring it and I always like, there's been a

467
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 3: few times where they've been at our like post event celebrations,

468
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 3: and I'll grab it and wear like a cape and

469
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 3: run around with it. So the people are throwing, you know,

470
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 3: America plags over and someone sees it. I think Caleb

Speaker 3: Barnes had have seen it. She's who I'm like, s's mine,

472

Speaker 2: Like it's good. It is so fitting and it's such

475
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 2: a great The timing was like we were all like,

476
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: where did that come from? That is so perfect? So

477
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 2: you got your metal. It's emotional.

478
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: The team is locked in arms like having this moment,

479
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: and you also get a tina, which I don't know

480
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: if you know this, but are impossible to get. They're

481
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: going for hundreds of dollars back home on eBay already.

482
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: Alex and I the producer. Alex and I keep walking

483
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: around asking stores if they're for sale and they're like, nope,

484
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: that's just a that's a display. We're like, we passed

485
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: a hotel that we wanted to try and buy it

486
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: off of. So it doesn't mean as much to you

487
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: as it does to everyone else here at the Games.

488
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, it's I remember in Beijing too. I

489
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 3: think it was bingedwen Win. There's the same thing, Like

490
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 3: it's the craze of the mascots. They're just so beloved

491
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 3: and when you see them at an event, to see

492
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 3: the like people swarm the live mascot.

493
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: That's me.

494
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: I'm actually I've actually proposed to Tina. Yeah, I want

495
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 1: that stoat to be my wife.

496
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, like what with the medals and like, oh, the

497
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 2: Tina is like forgetting one.

498
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: So that's awesome. Yeah, I'm glad you appreciate it. Otherwise

499
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:52,959
Speaker 1: I'd be like, so you you don't want that then?

500
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: Is what you're saying you don't want it?

501
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 3: I held on to some people like put theirs on

502
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 3: the bench of like we'll get those like, you know,

503
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 3: organized them, like and I'm making her mind's getting into

504
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 3: my hockey pay.

505
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: After the game, you said of this group of players,

506
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,479
Speaker 1: they're quote the best hockey team that women's hockey has

507
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: ever seen. And you also said, quote it's amazing sitting

508
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: on the bench and watching players that are just historic

509
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: in their own way and the way that everyone came together.

510
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: I was thinking about that I was thinking about how

511
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: every single player on Team USA is a star for

512
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: their team, their protein, their college team, but they.

513
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: Might have a different role here.

514
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 1: And I wonder how Robo your coach, and Hillary your captain,

515
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,360
Speaker 1: and the other assistant captains got everyone to buy into

516
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 1: their role, especially if it was a lesser one.

517
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 2: Here it kind of goes back to not just this event.

518
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 3: So for US, Robo has been our coach since INNIKI

519
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 3: started August of twenty twenty two, so right after Beijing,

520
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 3: And that's something I think that he's always I think

521
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: shown value in is, Hey, we might have people that

522
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 3: are powerplay and then people that are penalty killers.

523
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 2: If you're doing your job, you're doing your job.

524
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 3: Same thing if you're a penalty killer, right, If you're

525
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 3: someone who is expected to go out there and score,

526
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,959
Speaker 3: you better go score. If you're someone there that's expected

527
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 3: to not get scored on, do that job too. And

528
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 3: then I also just think when you have people I

529
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 3: mean like Kendall Coin Scorefield, right, like you know, getting

530
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 3: to see her day in and day out in Minnesota

531
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: with the Frost and knowing this about her and seeing

532
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 3: it you know in years past two is she just

533
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 3: does everything right every single day, like she just makes

534
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 3: the right decision. She's she's genuine with people, she's present

535
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,479
Speaker 3: with people. She is always doing what's right to recover,

536
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: to prepare, to train, wait room, taking care of a child,

537
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 3: like doing all I mean for the last however many

538
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 3: years afored literally literally and then even when the league started,

539
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 3: she's the president of the PA and she's doing things

540
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 3: that you know, people literally like how she does that,

541
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 3: I have no idea. And then for her, any single

542
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 3: time she's asked to go on the ice, she's gonna

543
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 3: do her job. So she's someone who like I look

544
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 3: at and like, if there's there's no role too small

545
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 3: for Kendall, there's no role to small for me.

546
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you look at Christin O'Neill. I think she

547
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: got like six minutes of playing time in that game

548
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: and scored a.

549
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 2: Goal yeah for Canada. Yeah. So like you can come

550
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 2: in with fresh legs, you can come in.

551
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: With perspective from watching that maybe the people on the

552
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: ice don't have, and that can be I can't remember

553
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: what the US women's national soccer team calls their substitutes

554
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 1: game changers.

555
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 2: If you try to call them substitutes.

556
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: They say, no game changers, and it's it's a way

557
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: of looking at it that you can really embody that

558
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: role as opposed to seeing it as less than in

559
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 1: any way exactly.

560
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: I think hockey is really special in that that you

561
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 3: get to put people out there for specific reasons.

562
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's again situation situational.

563
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 3: You can like when that whistle happens, or even hey,

564
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: we know that we're gonna have a six on five

565
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 3: or a five on six.

566
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: These are the people that we want to have out there.

567
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 3: And I think that's again it because shows like whenever

568
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 3: anyone jumped over that bench, no one's questioning why they're

569
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 3: going off there.

570
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 2: You mentioned coach robo I. Today was the first time

571
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 2: I saw the video of his reaction to the win.

572
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: Have you watched it yet? I have, Yeah, I've seen it. Wow,

573
00:22:58,680 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 2: we what did that mean to?

574
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think it says a lot about how hard

575
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 3: he's worked. I think he's always I feel like thinking

576
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 3: about ways that our team can adjust speak things here

577
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 3: or there, How can we optimize things? And it's a

578
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 3: lot of work, I think for everyone that's a part

579
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 3: of you know, our team, from players to staff to

580
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 3: support staff, coaching staff, it's a lot of time away

581
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 3: from your family. They're the same place as we are

582
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 3: when we're in the middle of nowhere Canada usually you know,

583
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 3: in Edmonton when it's freezing cold, they're there too. And

584
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 3: I think it's just that same, you know, emotion where

585
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 3: you have the belief that you're going to get the

586
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 3: job done, but you're also putting everything you can to

587
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 3: get the job done, and there's a element that's not

588
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 3: in your control, you know, as a coach, like there's

589
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 3: a lot that you can't control, but you're not the

590
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 3: one out there making plays. So I think it's just

591
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 3: a testament to how much care he has for what

592
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 3: he does. And also, you know, for everything that this

593
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 3: team has.

594
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: Been through, who went the hardest at the after party?

595
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: Oh gosh hard, that's a hard question.

596
00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 3: I think everyone was on the same page that you know,

597
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 3: night after we won. I think you're just kind of

598
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 3: like everyone's doing everything. People are getting drug tested and

599
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 3: that's always like the worst thing. Yeah, it's better when

600
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 3: after you win, yeah, for sure, but it's it's like

601
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 3: just so tough because like all you want to do

602
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 3: is like be in lockers for like waiting. I think

603
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: I mean and then you have the mixz owone, which

604
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 3: everyone wants to talk to, you know, a lot of

605
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 3: the same people too, so they have to like I

606
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 3: think we waited for Hillary to like before he pop

607
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 3: the champagne. Then she had to run to do drug

608
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 3: testing and they're like, we're getting a lot of champagne

609
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 3: but no drugs.

610
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 2: Well she's like, I can't drink any of this. Yeah, man,

611
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: So it was fun.

612
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 3: And then getting you know, back to the tbsa winter

613
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 3: house with our friends and family. It's most people listening

614
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 3: haven't been to this building and it's there's a lot

615
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 3: of like nooks and crannies to it, so you're kind

616
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 3: of like popping in and out and trying to like

617
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 3: see people and be with your family and friends too.

618
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: So I feel like everyone was No one was like

619
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: to too banged up. When we did the Today Show,

620
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 3: they were, honestly, I think getting on us because they're

621
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 3: like the women's soccer team.

622
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 2: After after they could go metal.

623
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 3: They were really in a bad spot, yes, and I

624
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 3: was like, okay, but maybe that's just because we can

625
00:24:59,400 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 3: handle it better.

626
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 2: I don't know. Interesting. Interesting. I'm also curious how many

627
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 2: hours between there were to drink. That's true, because I

628
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: feel like your game was so late.

629
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: We didn't get out of that stadium till two am

630
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: past two am too, because we recorded and we did

631
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: stuff after and so y'all, by the time you got

632
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: to the party, probably had it fewer hours to pound

633
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: it than the soccer team. I think had a little

634
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: more time. Right a daytime game, So how light did

635
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: it go to the party?

636
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 3: You had to get on our bus at like two

637
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,479
Speaker 3: thirty to go back to the village, and then from

638
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 3: there we're like trying to figure out where we're gonna

639
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 3: bounce around in the village too. It was actually I

640
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 3: don't know if I'm supposed to say this, but I'm

641
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: gonna say it. Yeah, the men's hockey team left us

642
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 3: some beverages. We have a kind of a s dries,

643
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 3: so they found a way to help us out there.

644
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, then we're trying to like figure it out,

645
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 3: and yeah, you're trying to mix it. The hard part is,

646
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 3: honestly you're mixing in like post game drinks with eating. Yeah,

647
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 3: and I think some like for me personally, like I

648
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 3: didn't really eat that much, so I'm really tired. I'm

649
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 3: But then I'm also wired. Yeah, I had a few

650
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: Express and martinis. I'm like, it was something.

651
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 2: I love that they left your little care package to

652
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 2: make sure you could go after it. That's great. It

653
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 2: was like three hours of sleep, I think.

654
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, did it feel different at these Olympics because of

655
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: the PWHL because a lot of the people you're playing

656
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: against are actually teammates now that you're seeing year round

657
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: instead of just at the Olympics and World Championships.

658
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard to say. I think, like here, I

659
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 3: don't think it felt different for the Frost. We don't

660
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 3: have any Canadians on our team.

661
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 2: Now. We had sof and Claire Thompson, but so you

662
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 2: know them.

663
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 3: But it's it's so easy to like, honestly, when we

664
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 3: walk by him, it's so funny because like you just

665
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 3: don't even make eye contact.

666
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 2: It's like I'm staying there. They don't look like So

667
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: the end of your sentence was it's so easy to

668
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 2: just start hating them again. Yeah, no, really, it truly is.

669
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: So it'll be it'll be interesting.

670
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 3: I think going back is where I think we'll see

671
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 3: some I don't know, just like I don't know what

672
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 3: to expect.

673
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 2: I think it's unprecedented to have to go back.

674
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 3: I mean we've done it with World championships, but to

675
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 3: go back after an Olympics, it is just everything is heavier.

676
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: So it'll be It'll be auld see how the end

677
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 3: of the season shakes up.

678
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 1: Tougher for the teams where there's a handful of each,

679
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: maybe tougher for like the Victoire where their head coach

680
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 1: was on the staff for Team Canada and now has

681
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: to get back to.

682
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 2: Her players. There's a few different waste to look about it.

683
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 3: Like I remember after we lost the World Championship in

684
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 3: Utica so at home, which it always is way worse

685
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 3: like to lose at home when you know it's there's

686
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 3: only so many times you get to wear a USA

687
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 3: jersey at home, and losing that, I remember coming back

688
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 3: to the season and just being like, well, we got

689
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 3: to win this now, like I'm not going through losing

690
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 3: to do these things. And so I think there's a

691
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 3: there's also an easy way to kind of flip that

692
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 3: and you know, find motivation and ultimately, like it is,

693
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 3: it's a good distraction in a way too to be

694
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 3: able to just like, well rip the band off, we

695
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 3: gotta go right back to it versus I know how

696
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 3: it's felt to lose and have to sit and wait

697
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 3: an entire season to be like, well, okay, I that

698
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 3: shit with this now.

699
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you mentioned the athlete village and partying back there.

700
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: Alex and I took a little visit early in the

701
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: game and we noticed that the giant poster out front

702
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: of the dining hall is the Canadian women's hockey team

703
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: celebrating a win.

704
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 2: How about that? Yeah, I had to walk past that

705
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 2: every meal.

706
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was smart the I'd like,

707
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 3: I don't know if like when Canadacy said out to

708
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 3: day like pumped. I mean, so we see it and

709
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 3: we're like, yeah, like no, we're not like I can't

710
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 3: so I hope. I mean in four years, they're not

711
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 3: like trying to flip that and right, I think you

712
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 3: got a request not to have that there. It's just

713
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 3: it's a free boltimore material three to four times a day.

714
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 2: I feel like I have a lot of photos with

715
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 2: the middle finger. Yeah, like walking by You know, how

716
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 2: did the Olympics.

717
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: We really admired how you spoke about Alex Pretty's death

718
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: at the hands of ice. You did it during a

719
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: Minnesota Frost press conference and you said, quote, what I'm

720
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: most proud to represent is the tens of thousands of

721
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: people that show up on some of the coldest days

722
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: of the.

723
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 2: Year to stand and fight for what they believe in.

724
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: I wonder if it felt different representing Team USA at

725
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: this Olympics than previous.

726
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 3: I don't think it felt different in the sense that,

727
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: you know, I think it's really fair for Americans say

728
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 3: I don't like what's happening, right. I think that's a

729
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 3: really fair thing to say. And it's weird because for athletes,

730
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 3: I feel like we're kind of trained to accel at

731
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 3: our sport to be in your bubble, right, and you

732
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 3: hear a lot of team sports talking about, you know,

733
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 3: sticking in our bubble.

734
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 2: The voices that matter are the ones in our room.

735
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 3: But it's also I think you can't ignore everything, and

736
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 3: I don't think it's healthy to ignore everything. I don't

737
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 3: think it's I think it's important to be aware of

738
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 3: what's going on, and I think it's also really fair

739
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 3: to be like, I don't like what's happening. I think

740
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 3: what's felt maybe different is how many athletes have felt

741
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 3: comfortable sharing that on this platform and you know, getting

742
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 3: you know, a lot of support. I think that was

743
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 3: one of the things about after I had that press conference,

744
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 3: I heard for more people reaching out to me, like

745
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 3: appreciating my message about that than I think when I

746
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 3: made the Olympic team.

747
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 2: Graduating me.

748
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think I have to do yeah, And

749
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 3: I think, well, I think it's just as a testament

750
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 3: to like, you know, what sport can do for people.

751
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,479
Speaker 3: I think a lot of times like it's an entertainment business, right,

752
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 3: I mean I think as an athlete, where like we

753
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,239
Speaker 3: like to make it bigger than it is, but at

754
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 3: the end of the day, like we exist because someone

755
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 3: things that we will help give them money by putting

756
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 3: people in seats or watching a TV to support us.

757
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:05,479
Speaker 1: Right.

758
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 3: But I think it's again like how lucky are we?

759
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 3: And I look back and you know, Beijing of with COVID,

760
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: I mean we look at that. As an athlete in

761
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 3: that experience, that was hard, right, Like that was a

762
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 3: hard Olympics to be in. I feel, I really feel

763
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 3: for people that that was their only only Olympic experience.

764
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 3: Just the stress of the games, you know, the COVID

765
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 3: testing to get there, while you're there, just the lack

766
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 3: of you know, togetherness that it felt being there.

767
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 2: But then you take a step out and you're like,

768
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 2: but at least we get to be here and what

769
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 2: you gave people who needed something, and you.

770
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 3: Get people that you know, something to still cheer for

771
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 3: and to still root for and to still you know,

772
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 3: sit and google when they're watching, and you know, again

773
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 3: meet different people through through their stories.

774
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: Well, like you said, it's entertainment, but then your voice

775
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: carries such a weight because you're in a platform that

776
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: people can see, and so when you say stuff, it

777
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: matters and it inspires people. You know, I'm wondering we

778
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: were at your first couple of games that Jade Vance

779
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: was at. Did he try to come in the locker

780
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: room and was there any conversation with the team about

781
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: whether or not that's something that you wanted or would

782
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: be a distraction?

783
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 3: You know, it wasn't ever like present it to our team.

784
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 3: I think what's really interesting is with the team sport,

785
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: you you can't assume, but an individual athlete, Hey, I

786
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 3: consider here and say this is what I believe, this

787
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 3: is what I would do that, so I don't want

788
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 3: to do this af that In a way, I think ultimately,

789
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 3: our team historically has been very you know, pushing women's

790
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 3: sports forward, pushing women's hockey forward, and I think that's

791
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 3: something that you know, personally, I'm glad it didn't happen.

792
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that, you know.

793
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 3: I got a bunch of us got asked about it

794
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 3: after the game, and I was like, I didn't even

795
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 3: know he was there, don't really care. You guys want

796
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 3: to make that a story goal for it, but that's

797
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 3: not really associated with us.

798
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, And to your point, like that's especially hockey culture

799
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: is like team first, calling everybody in and pushing toward

800
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: the same thing and not about like these things that

801
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: can separate you. We saw you in the stands on

802
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: Friday for Britney Bo's last race. You went with Hillary

803
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: her fiance, of course, and Hillary was named the flag bear,

804
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: got engaged, one Gold named the flag bearer.

805
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 2: Will you all be walking with her in Verona?

806
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:02,239
Speaker 3: Oh?

807
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we'll We'll all be there.

808
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 3: We're super excited for her. It was she I had

809
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 3: known that, like she had a ring here, Oh I did?

810
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: I knew, And so we were laughing. We had some

811
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 3: funny jokes because she was like, what, how do you

812
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 3: think she knew she wanted to do it here, how

813
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 3: do you do it? And we're like going back and

814
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 3: forth and like we did rivalry style on the ice,

815
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: like called Brittany from this dand she was like forre,

816
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: not that butter After they got engaged, like I knew

817
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 3: she was leaving to go propose and she comes back

818
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 3: and she was like Okay. She was like so relieved

819
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 3: because obviously very nerve wracking, like experienced to do. And

820
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 3: then she was like, Okay, do you think that, like

821
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 3: do you think the girls will be mad if like

822
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 3: we post about it or like because the hard part

823
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 3: was like, well, we have a game, Like it's timing

824
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 3: of everything.

825
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 2: She kind of wanted to be. I'm like, Hillary, I

826
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 2: guarantee you everyone's just gonna be really excited for you.

827
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: Like we're all like it. So we were and I

828
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 2: was laughing. I'm like, wait, a secure one win first?

829
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 2: Like that was smart? Smart was and it was honestly,

830
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 2: it's more of the same.

831
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 3: I think we all wanted her to be really rooting

832
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 3: for her to be the opening ceremonies flay bear, but

833
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 3: I think for her to get the honor to be,

834
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 3: you know, the closing ceremonies as well, like she's not

835
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 3: the loudest person. Again, like even that question of like

836
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: I don't want my engagement to be a distraction to people,

837
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 3: and you're like, well no it's not, no, please, same

838
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 3: thing like verbally, glad you scored because you gave us

839
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 3: the chance to win. Also really glad you scored because

840
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 3: you broke her record, Like we want that for you,

841
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 3: and so now we're really excited to I was like,

842
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 3: we got to get in front. We're gonna be right

843
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 3: behind you.

844
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 2: And I heard the locker room played Marry Me when

845
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 2: she came in after that the video. She loves attention too,

846
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 2: so she was she was like, okay, let's enough.

847
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, after the game, she said, we'll see

848
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 1: when she was asked if it was her last Olympic goal,

849
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: and she was equally sort of mercurial in the presser

850
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: and I was talking to her mom and her mom

851
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 1: kind of left the door, Ajar, So what's your gut

852
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: feeling on whether she might come back.

853
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 2: For twenty thirty.

854
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 3: Nothing would surprise me with her because she that's I

855
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 3: feel like her entire career, she's evolved as a hockey player,

856
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 3: and I think as she's you know, a become more experience.

857
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 3: We're gonna say older, but more experienced. That's figuring out

858
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 3: different ways to be successful. And I mean, like I

859
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 3: want to put it past her. Yea, she I mean

860
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 3: still getting it. She still gets she still gets the

861
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 3: job done. And so I think as long as she

862
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 3: wants to be the one that gets the job done,

863
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 3: she'll do it. And I think that at this point,

864
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 3: what's for all of us, Like you just never know

865
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 3: when the last time you get to all play together is.

866
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 3: And that was I think the biggest sentiment, like for

867
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 3: our entire team was just like how lucky and how

868
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,879
Speaker 3: special it is to be a part of this team,

869
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 3: and like how fun it is to play with each other. Yeah,

870
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,919
Speaker 3: and I think everyone you know as well, like playing

871
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: for Hillary. If that's gonna be her last, so let's

872
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 3: make it. Let's make it sick.

873
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, last couple of questions because then I got to run.

874
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: So three weeks basically in the athlete Village for you

875
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 1: best and worst parts of dorm life?

876
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 3: Oh okay, well it's dorm living, so I think that's

877
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 3: part of it. The beds are not the largest temper controls. Hard.

878
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 3: I mean you're in Europe still, so like something about

879
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 3: the thermostats here. They don't love them no, or they

880
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 3: don't give you one.

881
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 2: They're just like this is hat's going to be.

882
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 3: And it's it's noisy, like that's the sole, like you

883
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 3: have your to open and it's then there's a lot

884
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 3: like I we joke again after some of those late games,

885
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 3: you're trying to wind down to go to bed and

886
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 3: it's like three am, and somehow you still hear a

887
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 3: cart on the cobblestone, whether it's like taken out a

888
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 3: trash or it's by the kitchen, like whatever it is,

889
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 3: you just hear the You're like, okay, so I'm just

890
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 3: gonna be hot tonight, but I'm gonna close this window.

891
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 3: The best part, though, I think, is you get to

892
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 3: sit in the Little Athlete Launche. You have an rtmusa

893
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 3: building and you know, sit next to Ilia and watch

894
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 3: a random hockey game with him, and you get to

895
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 3: like cheer for other people and be a fan. That's

896
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 3: something that like I don't I'm not going to a

897
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 3: ton of sporting events in my free time, so getting

898
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 3: to do that is really is really fun. But it's

899
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 3: then being able to see the athletes and your your

900
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 3: teammates outside of your own you know, you know, discipline

901
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 3: and get to you know, congratulate them and see him

902
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 3: in the dining hall and anyone in particular you were

903
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,280
Speaker 3: excited to see in the village from like a different

904
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 3: country or from your team. It was really funny when

905
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 3: the NHL guys got to the village and like the

906
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 3: Canadian guys that we're there for like a day or

907
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 3: whatever it was.

908
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 2: I mean, but how many people like went to.

909
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 3: Stop McDavid or Cosby or like Austin Matthews another one

910
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 3: where they stand out, Like it's the same way our

911
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 3: team stands out because we're usually traveling in a big

912
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 3: pack or other other disciplines you travel in two or three.

913
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, So for.

914
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: That you just see him and then you have a

915
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 3: different build, right, Like it's a very like we again

916
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 3: laugh with the speed skaters that they're like Britt. It's

917
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 3: like Britt has the upper rodies. Not not like in

918
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 3: the training program as much, but I heard like they're

919
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 3: but that was again, yeah, they're staying there, staying long.

920
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. Paucasol was there the day we were there, and like, yeah,

921
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: there's no one even close. No, So like the NBA

922
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: guys never stay in their athlete village and when they

923
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: pop in.

924
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 2: It is like people are dying to meet them.

925
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: People who are the best in the world at what

926
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,280
Speaker 1: they do, like lose their ship, yeah, or Simon Biles.

927
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 2: Right, there's certain people that stand out. RIGHTA Williams. Someone

928
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: told us, Oh, I saw her in the village and

929
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 2: they were like, I'm supposed to be like you, but

930
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 2: I can't be. I have to like go up and

931
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 2: be like, oh my god, it's right.

932
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 3: What's like I get I'm like, we got a picture

933
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,919
Speaker 3: with Serena Williams to twenty eight him like yeah, yeah,

934
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,320
Speaker 3: I want to get a picture.

935
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah's sick. That's awesome. Who's your roommate?

936
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 3: So this is the one thing, maybe only answer about

937
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 3: the hardest thing is this is the first time of

938
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,399
Speaker 3: the three Olympics I've been at where it's a really

939
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 3: truly dorm style. So there's singles and there's doubles, and

940
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 3: our team actually had a lot of singles and so

941
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,720
Speaker 3: I was in a single, which I was lucky because

942
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 3: the rooms are just tight, like they're small. But that's

943
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 3: part of the fun is like used to both of

944
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: my other experiences, you had like rooms within an apartment. Yeah, right,

945
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 3: so you had that kind of comment space Ouada school, Yeah.

946
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 2: And that's like that's the best. So you feel like

947
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 2: you're in college.

948
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the quad stressed me out if I

949
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 1: was trying to get some rest in my roommate had

950
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: a different schedule.

951
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,479
Speaker 3: No, but like there was space if your apartments okay, okay,

952
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 3: And yeah Beijing everyone had their own rooms, so like

953
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 3: you had a door, you close it. And in twenty

954
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 3: eighteen and Peung Chang there was I think we had

955
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 3: an apartment with five people and like Minicle Hensley shared

956
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,879
Speaker 3: a room and then we were with other people whatever.

957
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 3: So you like, yeah, you're used to we're used to

958
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 3: having roommates, but it's just having that like kind of

959
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 3: common space, Like that's where Shenanigan's get up to.

960
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:04,959
Speaker 2: So now we just are all like have our doors

961
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 2: open in the hallway all the time.

962
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: Because when you travel when you're older, you want to

963
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: do airbnb's instead of hotels because you want all the

964
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: little downtime together too, not just the fun that you

965
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: go out and do, but making coffee and breakfast in

966
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: the morning with each other and all that the debriefs.

967
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 2: We're all about the debriefs.

968
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: Yes, what's the best thing you learned out of a

969
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 1: debrief here? That'd be good, goss, breakups, makeups.

970
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 2: What do you tell I can't my helves are shield

00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,280
Speaker 3: my bed. I'm so excited for that. And maybe closely.

979
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 3: Second is like get some Chipotle or something. I feel

980
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 3: like I've had the post here has been really good.

981
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 3: Like obviously can't complain, but I'm passive same five ingredients.

982
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 2: Am positive. Whenever I go home from Italy, I just

Speaker 2: start eating like Thai food instantly. You just want something different. Yeah, okay,

984
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 2: you've won it every level.

985
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: We've talked about this before, Olympic World, PWHL College, like

986
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: every single possible way to win. So you've collabed with

987
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: Fulton Beer. You had a beer called ben there won

988
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 1: that then you released another after you won again. Ben

989
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 1: There won that again, and now the third in the series,

990
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 1: Been There won that two time gold medal championship.

991
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 2: Shandy a very specific name, little party stocked with that.

992
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: When you get home, do you have friends and family

993
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: that want to get together and throw something for you

994
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 1: when you get back?

995
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.

996
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 3: I actually had a lot of family here, which is

997
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: really fun. I have a big immediate family and one

998
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 3: of four kids, and so they were all here. But

999
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 3: then my aunt's mot and uncles and cousins come, and yeah,

1000
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 3: when we get back, I have no idea, but if

1001
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 3: there is a party, that beer will be there. Fulton

1002
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,839
Speaker 3: has been, you know, so great to me, and it's

1003
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 3: been really fun to work with them, and again just

1004
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 3: another way to kind of amplify women's sports and celebrate it,

1005
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 3: which that's kind of been the mission with that beer.

1006
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 3: And yeah, I just it's it's getting hard though, because

1007
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 3: they keep winning. It feels like to keep making a

1008
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 3: beer and then it's like, well, look at this asshole,

1009
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 3: like she just's doing.

1010
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 2: This, like he's introducing more beers, like it's like a

1011
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 2: target on your back.

1012
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: And no, that's why it's great. Being on a tea

1013
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 3: sports and be like, well, it's not my fault. I

1014
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 3: just happen to be on these teams.

1015
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 2: That's so true. And you know what the good news is,

1016
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 2: if you lose, you can create a beer that drowns

1017
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 2: your sorrow. Yeah exactly. Yeah, that's where I used to

1018
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 2: say it in college.

1019
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 3: And one of my college teamates texan me, but it

1020
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 3: was we lost the national championship and we're saying the

1021
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,799

Speaker 3: teammates texted me, never tears only beers, Tears only beers.

1023
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:36,840
Speaker 2: Well, I don't want you to lose.

1024
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: Anything, but if you do, you've got the name of

Speaker 1: your fourth beer. Yeah, never tears only beers Shandy. Well,

00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: fun to hear your perspective on all this and just congratulations.

1030
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,320

Speaker 2: Thank you.

1032
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: Thanks again to Kelly for hanging out with us back

1033
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: in Milan. That conversation was just as hilarious and smart

1034
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: as I remember Oh, and one funny story that's happened

1035
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: with Kelly since we recorded at the Olympics. When Kelly

1036
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 1: won Forward of the Year, the PWHL posted a video

1037
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 1: on social media of a man proudly taking photos and

1038
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 1: videos of her receiving her award.

1039
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 2: You know the Amy Poehler and mean girls. You're doing great, sweetie.

1040
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: So the league wrote, quote wholesome moment Alert, Kelly Panic's

1041
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: dad capturing the moment she was honored at the twenty

1042
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: twenty six p WWHL Awards end quote super cute, Except

1043
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: that man was not Kelly's dad.

1044
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: It was her agent, Brant Feldman.

1045
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: And Brandt took the mistaken identity and ran with it,

1046
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: posting the moment on his Instagram, writing, I do have

1047
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: to explain to my dad he doesn't have a thirty

1048
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: year old three time Olympian, two time Walter Cup champion,

1049
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 1: two time Olympic champion, four time World champion, NCAA champion

1050
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: grandchild who has three of her own beers. He actually

1051
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 1: got me off the hook for not having grandkids. I

1052
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: appreciate the help anyway. The league eventually took the video down.

1053
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:56,880
