1 00:00:04,552 --> 00:00:21,392 Speaker 1: NHL Unscripted is a production of the NHL and iHeart Podcasts. 2 00:00:21,912 --> 00:00:23,512 Speaker 2: Episode number eighty three. 3 00:00:23,312 --> 00:00:26,752 Speaker 1: Of NHL Unscripted perhaps one of our most unpredictable ones, 4 00:00:26,832 --> 00:00:31,312 Speaker 1: as an absolutely shocking surprise, the Colorada Avalanche President Trophy 5 00:00:31,312 --> 00:00:34,712 Speaker 1: winners doused and swept. Overall, we'll get in all of 6 00:00:34,752 --> 00:00:37,592 Speaker 1: that involved in the Colorda Avalanche plus Hot to Trot's. 7 00:00:38,112 --> 00:00:40,552 Speaker 1: We'll get into that in our special guest, Cal Clutterbuck, 8 00:00:40,592 --> 00:00:42,952 Speaker 1: one of the all time great names in hockey history. 9 00:00:43,232 --> 00:00:45,992 Speaker 2: Stories from Cal which will be awfully entertaining. 10 00:00:45,992 --> 00:00:47,512 Speaker 1: We'll get to the heart attack in just a second, 11 00:00:47,512 --> 00:00:50,352 Speaker 1: But Jason Demursen Nate Thompson along for the ride as always, JD, 12 00:00:50,432 --> 00:00:52,552 Speaker 1: You're on NHL tonight last night, so you were forced 13 00:00:52,552 --> 00:00:53,952 Speaker 1: to watch that game, whether or not you wanted to 14 00:00:54,072 --> 00:00:56,632 Speaker 1: or not. As night fever, how's that for a headline? 15 00:00:56,672 --> 00:00:58,992 Speaker 1: Mitch Marner and the Vegas Golden Knights are heading to 16 00:00:58,992 --> 00:01:01,032 Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup Final. If you're a leaf hater, this 17 00:01:01,072 --> 00:01:03,512 Speaker 1: is great news as Martyr is now in the Cup Final, 18 00:01:03,552 --> 00:01:05,232 Speaker 1: and perhaps the Habs are in there too. God, that 19 00:01:05,232 --> 00:01:08,312 Speaker 1: would be great just to cause so much Shadden freud 20 00:01:08,352 --> 00:01:10,791 Speaker 1: towards leaves fans. I saw you talking about the game 21 00:01:11,032 --> 00:01:13,032 Speaker 1: and broadcasting it and saying, you know, the key really 22 00:01:13,152 --> 00:01:14,191 Speaker 1: was the pot battles. 23 00:01:14,271 --> 00:01:16,592 Speaker 2: Vegas wanted it more, they fought for it more. I 24 00:01:16,672 --> 00:01:18,072 Speaker 2: know Colorado was banged up. 25 00:01:18,112 --> 00:01:20,071 Speaker 1: I get it, McCart missed the first two games, mckinna 26 00:01:20,152 --> 00:01:22,711 Speaker 1: hurt in game three. But this is a stunning result. 27 00:01:23,072 --> 00:01:25,752 Speaker 1: I know, the President Trophy winners they lose. This happens 28 00:01:25,911 --> 00:01:29,631 Speaker 1: because it's a long no Ultimately, Vegas sweep shocking to me. 29 00:01:30,392 --> 00:01:33,191 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's it's hard to wrap my head around 30 00:01:33,191 --> 00:01:36,712 Speaker 3: it other than it's just more so. I keep drawing 31 00:01:36,752 --> 00:01:41,191 Speaker 3: comparisons to the twozenty twelve La Kings, where they kind 32 00:01:41,232 --> 00:01:43,271 Speaker 3: of came in, limped into the platte and limp into 33 00:01:43,271 --> 00:01:45,271 Speaker 3: the playoffs. They won their last like eight or nine. 34 00:01:45,351 --> 00:01:47,952 Speaker 3: I remember talking to Brad Richardson about it, and they 35 00:01:48,072 --> 00:01:51,312 Speaker 3: just rolled through the playoffs and everybody was like, who 36 00:01:51,352 --> 00:01:54,192 Speaker 3: the fuck is this team. They made a coaching change too, 37 00:01:54,312 --> 00:01:58,151 Speaker 3: Darryl Sutter came in, and you know, they've just owned 38 00:01:58,192 --> 00:02:00,791 Speaker 3: the middle of the ice number one. But you look 39 00:02:00,872 --> 00:02:02,832 Speaker 3: last night, they're just wave after wave. 40 00:02:02,872 --> 00:02:03,552 Speaker 4: They lean on you. 41 00:02:03,632 --> 00:02:08,472 Speaker 3: They're heavy and honestly they got a goaltender that peaked 42 00:02:08,512 --> 00:02:09,232 Speaker 3: at the right time. 43 00:02:09,312 --> 00:02:11,992 Speaker 4: You know, Carter Harten. Round one was just okay, but he's. 44 00:02:11,792 --> 00:02:14,432 Speaker 3: Gotten better and better, and he is like he is 45 00:02:14,472 --> 00:02:17,472 Speaker 3: painting his Picasso right now out there on the ice, 46 00:02:17,552 --> 00:02:21,592 Speaker 3: because you know, say what you want, but he's playing 47 00:02:21,672 --> 00:02:25,992 Speaker 3: one hell of a playoffs and Torts is pushing all 48 00:02:25,992 --> 00:02:28,632 Speaker 3: the right buttons. They've also gotten some luck with injuries, 49 00:02:28,712 --> 00:02:32,432 Speaker 3: and you know, versus the Colorado Avalanche that have not 50 00:02:32,552 --> 00:02:37,151 Speaker 3: had that same luck. But I just it's if I'm Colorado, 51 00:02:37,192 --> 00:02:41,231 Speaker 3: I'm kind of today, probably sitting with the guys having 52 00:02:41,311 --> 00:02:44,272 Speaker 3: drinks or something, and you're just like, what the what happened? 53 00:02:44,952 --> 00:02:47,752 Speaker 3: What happened in that series? We just couldn't get any 54 00:02:47,792 --> 00:02:51,871 Speaker 3: goal scoring from our secondary guys, get bad injuries, give 55 00:02:51,952 --> 00:02:55,552 Speaker 3: up one bad goal of game, and see it frickin later. 56 00:02:55,792 --> 00:02:59,952 Speaker 3: The Kings are dead. Long live the Kings, Long live 57 00:02:59,992 --> 00:03:00,431 Speaker 3: the Knights. 58 00:03:00,952 --> 00:03:03,912 Speaker 1: It's well said, and again the Torrella storyline is irresistible. 59 00:03:03,992 --> 00:03:05,952 Speaker 2: Nate nineteen four to one under Torts. 60 00:03:05,992 --> 00:03:08,112 Speaker 1: But you guys know, I mean, I respect the coach, 61 00:03:08,151 --> 00:03:09,632 Speaker 1: and I'm sure Torts has done a good job and 62 00:03:09,672 --> 00:03:11,832 Speaker 1: Cassidy probably wore these guys down, but all through the 63 00:03:11,871 --> 00:03:14,272 Speaker 1: players step up. So I'm with JD given props and 64 00:03:14,311 --> 00:03:16,192 Speaker 1: Mitch Marna and Carter Hart and the fact that against 65 00:03:16,192 --> 00:03:18,351 Speaker 1: the Avs he allowed only seven goals one hundred and 66 00:03:18,352 --> 00:03:20,472 Speaker 1: twenty five shots nine to forty four to st eight percentage. 67 00:03:20,552 --> 00:03:22,032 Speaker 1: You know him from the time of the Flyers, Nate. 68 00:03:22,232 --> 00:03:24,552 Speaker 1: But the more interesting aspect is indeed Colorado. I mean, 69 00:03:24,591 --> 00:03:26,232 Speaker 1: they have the best record in the league all season. 70 00:03:26,272 --> 00:03:29,151 Speaker 1: You get cadri walk cool like the deadline, you sweep LA, 71 00:03:29,232 --> 00:03:30,992 Speaker 1: you beat Minnesota in five, you look ready to go 72 00:03:31,031 --> 00:03:34,712 Speaker 1: against Vegas, and Nate just goes down returns in Game four. 73 00:03:34,952 --> 00:03:36,952 Speaker 2: You know, I get it. Chooskin banged up as well. 74 00:03:37,272 --> 00:03:39,912 Speaker 1: But once again the twenty twelve, twenty thirteen Blackhawks the 75 00:03:39,992 --> 00:03:43,872 Speaker 1: last President's Trophy winner to hoist the Stanley Cup. For Colorado, 76 00:03:43,912 --> 00:03:46,392 Speaker 1: it's a colossal disappointment. And where do you go from here? 77 00:03:46,432 --> 00:03:48,992 Speaker 1: I think always would agree Bednar is a good coach, 78 00:03:49,512 --> 00:03:52,272 Speaker 1: but this is like an incredibly disappointing result for them. 79 00:03:52,952 --> 00:03:54,351 Speaker 5: It is. It's it's shocking. 80 00:03:55,032 --> 00:03:58,712 Speaker 6: You know, we've expected to wake up today and probably 81 00:03:58,712 --> 00:04:01,632 Speaker 6: say Colorado swept the Vegas Golden Knights. If we were 82 00:04:01,672 --> 00:04:03,832 Speaker 6: going to initially guess that and now we're in this 83 00:04:03,912 --> 00:04:09,472 Speaker 6: position and took JD's credit. Like the defensive masterpiece that 84 00:04:09,592 --> 00:04:12,992 Speaker 6: Vegas has put on throughout this playoffs and especially against Colorado, 85 00:04:13,072 --> 00:04:14,832 Speaker 6: like they I think they had one shot over like 86 00:04:14,872 --> 00:04:19,351 Speaker 6: twenty five minutes in game four, and you're seeing how 87 00:04:19,392 --> 00:04:22,592 Speaker 6: good they are defensively, and I think for Colorado it's, 88 00:04:23,152 --> 00:04:25,632 Speaker 6: you know, it's literally what could. 89 00:04:25,392 --> 00:04:27,152 Speaker 5: Have gone wrong went wrong for them. 90 00:04:27,231 --> 00:04:29,152 Speaker 6: You know, I think Minnesota got a chunk out of 91 00:04:29,192 --> 00:04:32,032 Speaker 6: them a little bit, you could say, with yeah, mccar 92 00:04:32,231 --> 00:04:35,431 Speaker 6: getting hurt and some guys being banged up, and you're 93 00:04:35,512 --> 00:04:38,712 Speaker 6: just kind of seeing, I guess how important cale mccarr 94 00:04:38,791 --> 00:04:42,032 Speaker 6: was to color Avalanche because it was it happens quick, 95 00:04:42,152 --> 00:04:45,312 Speaker 6: it does unfortunately in these series sometimes where you go 96 00:04:45,392 --> 00:04:47,392 Speaker 6: down on one or two games and all of a sudden, 97 00:04:47,392 --> 00:04:49,552 Speaker 6: the series is over, and you know, you look at 98 00:04:49,552 --> 00:04:52,111 Speaker 6: it after game one, it was that was kind of it. 99 00:04:52,192 --> 00:04:55,751 Speaker 6: You know, they had this momentum Vegas has had in 100 00:04:55,791 --> 00:04:58,072 Speaker 6: this buzz saw that they've ran into, and I think 101 00:04:58,112 --> 00:05:00,872 Speaker 6: for Colorado moving forward, I mean, you have a bunch 102 00:05:00,912 --> 00:05:05,312 Speaker 6: of guys at the Calee mccar's twenty twenty eight sorry, 103 00:05:06,032 --> 00:05:08,472 Speaker 6: you know, McKinnon's thirty. I mean, these guys are getting 104 00:05:08,472 --> 00:05:09,952 Speaker 6: a little bit older, but they still have their core 105 00:05:10,032 --> 00:05:11,552 Speaker 6: group of guys. I don't know how much you can 106 00:05:11,592 --> 00:05:14,512 Speaker 6: really change because of how successful they were this year. 107 00:05:14,912 --> 00:05:17,431 Speaker 6: You still have your nucleus of players and guys that 108 00:05:17,512 --> 00:05:19,832 Speaker 6: you move, that you moved to get traded for, so 109 00:05:20,992 --> 00:05:24,192 Speaker 6: you know it is. It's a huge disappointment for calling 110 00:05:24,231 --> 00:05:29,032 Speaker 6: out knowing that it was cup or bust, But for Vegas, man, Vegas, 111 00:05:29,072 --> 00:05:29,832 Speaker 6: baby Vegas. 112 00:05:30,592 --> 00:05:33,552 Speaker 3: I think, I mean, I think that aging corps a 113 00:05:33,632 --> 00:05:36,752 Speaker 3: little bit with Landeskog and Kadre and Nelson, I mean 114 00:05:36,791 --> 00:05:40,552 Speaker 3: Nelson one goal in the playoffs. Marty Natchis probably is 115 00:05:40,592 --> 00:05:44,871 Speaker 3: the bigger disappointment over got paid a hefty sum, a 116 00:05:44,872 --> 00:05:48,192 Speaker 3: bag of money, only one goal in the playoffs. That's 117 00:05:48,192 --> 00:05:50,232 Speaker 3: not enough. You're not gonna win with that, regardless of 118 00:05:50,312 --> 00:05:53,032 Speaker 3: the cars in or out. You got to get scoring. 119 00:05:53,072 --> 00:05:55,751 Speaker 3: They got to step up. But I yeah, I just 120 00:05:55,791 --> 00:06:00,072 Speaker 3: think they're Vegas is just built very well. And I 121 00:06:00,112 --> 00:06:03,832 Speaker 3: think the return of William Carlson cannot be said enough 122 00:06:03,912 --> 00:06:07,111 Speaker 3: how it open opened up Tomash Hurtle, and it also 123 00:06:07,472 --> 00:06:12,392 Speaker 3: just it created such a deep center group and again, 124 00:06:12,472 --> 00:06:14,992 Speaker 3: they just that lasts like two minutes of the game 125 00:06:15,032 --> 00:06:18,111 Speaker 3: when they're just defending so hard. It's a they put 126 00:06:18,112 --> 00:06:19,032 Speaker 3: on a masterclass. 127 00:06:19,112 --> 00:06:21,311 Speaker 4: Jack Eichland, Mark Stone, who you know. 128 00:06:21,392 --> 00:06:23,712 Speaker 3: I think towards set of Jack Eikel's the best two 129 00:06:23,671 --> 00:06:25,232 Speaker 3: and or foot player in the game. And other than 130 00:06:25,272 --> 00:06:29,712 Speaker 3: Sasha Barkov, I think that's one spot on when he 131 00:06:29,791 --> 00:06:32,712 Speaker 3: wants to be he is fucking impossible to stop. 132 00:06:33,351 --> 00:06:35,952 Speaker 4: And yeah, it's it's it's. 133 00:06:35,791 --> 00:06:37,791 Speaker 3: Gonna be tough for I think Carolina might be the 134 00:06:37,791 --> 00:06:39,872 Speaker 3: only team that can do it with their style. 135 00:06:40,032 --> 00:06:41,552 Speaker 4: I think it. I just don't. 136 00:06:41,592 --> 00:06:44,392 Speaker 3: I think Montreal makes it through by some shape or 137 00:06:44,392 --> 00:06:47,551 Speaker 3: form ad the end that they're gonna get absolutely balked 138 00:06:47,552 --> 00:06:48,872 Speaker 3: like a dog against Vegas. 139 00:06:49,512 --> 00:06:51,592 Speaker 1: One last thought of this, Serason, We'll move on, JD. 140 00:06:51,752 --> 00:06:53,592 Speaker 1: If you're the Avalanche, would you make a change in 141 00:06:53,671 --> 00:06:55,352 Speaker 1: net or do you think Jared Bednar is in the 142 00:06:55,392 --> 00:06:55,832 Speaker 1: hot seat? 143 00:06:55,872 --> 00:06:56,431 Speaker 2: Either of those? 144 00:06:57,152 --> 00:06:59,472 Speaker 3: I mean, I think a little bit all of the above. 145 00:06:59,592 --> 00:07:02,551 Speaker 3: I think they're really going to look at again, they're 146 00:07:02,671 --> 00:07:05,072 Speaker 3: they're an organization that doesn't sit out, so I don't 147 00:07:05,072 --> 00:07:08,351 Speaker 3: think Look, Brent Burns is gone, Josh Manson's getting older, 148 00:07:08,351 --> 00:07:10,672 Speaker 3: and at times did not look great in the series. 149 00:07:11,152 --> 00:07:15,392 Speaker 3: Do you move those two big trees? Malinsky struggled mightily 150 00:07:15,512 --> 00:07:17,992 Speaker 3: in the in the in the third round, did not 151 00:07:18,032 --> 00:07:24,191 Speaker 3: play good whatsoever. The Wedgwood and Blackwood tandem, it was good, 152 00:07:24,712 --> 00:07:27,072 Speaker 3: but they gave up one soft one every game. So 153 00:07:27,792 --> 00:07:30,152 Speaker 3: and then I thought there was some moments that Bednar 154 00:07:30,712 --> 00:07:34,032 Speaker 3: did not make a good He didn't make a good decision. 155 00:07:34,032 --> 00:07:36,352 Speaker 3: The way he altered things, I don't know if there 156 00:07:36,392 --> 00:07:38,712 Speaker 3: was really an adjustment. I know they they did play 157 00:07:38,712 --> 00:07:41,352 Speaker 3: well in certain games and just couldn't get a bounce, 158 00:07:41,392 --> 00:07:44,312 Speaker 3: But I don't know, Like I think Bednar for sure 159 00:07:44,392 --> 00:07:44,712 Speaker 3: is going to. 160 00:07:44,752 --> 00:07:45,511 Speaker 4: Be on the hot seat. 161 00:07:45,552 --> 00:07:49,512 Speaker 3: But I think there's a lot of question more question 162 00:07:49,592 --> 00:07:52,632 Speaker 3: marks than I think people realize with Colorado, because I 163 00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:54,712 Speaker 3: heard Eric Johnson talking the other day and I don't 164 00:07:54,712 --> 00:07:57,032 Speaker 3: know if it was on McAfee or spitting chickens, but 165 00:07:57,592 --> 00:08:02,072 Speaker 3: he's like the windows open, but like it's slowly, they're 166 00:08:02,112 --> 00:08:05,152 Speaker 3: closing it slowly, So there's still on that window, but 167 00:08:05,592 --> 00:08:08,312 Speaker 3: it's next year is going to be uh, put up 168 00:08:08,392 --> 00:08:09,192 Speaker 3: or shut up for him? 169 00:08:09,472 --> 00:08:09,792 Speaker 5: All right? 170 00:08:09,832 --> 00:08:11,792 Speaker 1: So that's the story with the guards to Vegas. Meantime, 171 00:08:11,832 --> 00:08:14,192 Speaker 1: for Carolina are they legit or are they a fugazi? 172 00:08:14,312 --> 00:08:14,512 Speaker 4: Nate. 173 00:08:14,552 --> 00:08:16,392 Speaker 1: On the one hand, as a Wednesday morning, ten to 174 00:08:16,472 --> 00:08:19,552 Speaker 1: one in these playoffs, including four known overtime. They got 175 00:08:19,632 --> 00:08:21,632 Speaker 1: both of their wins in the East Final against Montreal 176 00:08:21,712 --> 00:08:23,872 Speaker 1: in OT and the Haves still don't have a shot 177 00:08:23,872 --> 00:08:26,112 Speaker 1: in overtime in the series. Carolina hasn't been this close 178 00:08:26,152 --> 00:08:28,352 Speaker 1: to the Cup finals since they won the whole damn 179 00:08:28,352 --> 00:08:30,392 Speaker 1: thing in six. On the other hand, they've been criticized 180 00:08:30,392 --> 00:08:32,832 Speaker 1: the level of competition they've faced in the playoffs so far, 181 00:08:33,192 --> 00:08:36,872 Speaker 1: and their top scorer Sebastianaho three goals andres Feeshta got 182 00:08:36,872 --> 00:08:38,632 Speaker 1: two goals, including the OT winning game three. 183 00:08:38,712 --> 00:08:41,312 Speaker 2: Seth Jarvis just two goals. So how about it, Nate. 184 00:08:41,352 --> 00:08:44,832 Speaker 1: Is Carolina a legit power or is this an overrated 185 00:08:44,832 --> 00:08:47,952 Speaker 1: team that needs over him to beat lesser opponents. 186 00:08:49,152 --> 00:08:52,632 Speaker 6: No, this is a legit team, and they've been really 187 00:08:52,912 --> 00:08:56,352 Speaker 6: they've been taking it to Montreal, and Montreal's teams seems 188 00:08:56,352 --> 00:08:59,232 Speaker 6: to keep finding ways. And I was at the game, 189 00:08:59,272 --> 00:09:03,392 Speaker 6: and you know it was it was obviously a close game, 190 00:09:03,552 --> 00:09:06,032 Speaker 6: but I mean for Montreal, I mean they didn't have 191 00:09:06,432 --> 00:09:10,392 Speaker 6: a shot for it was a long time, a really 192 00:09:10,432 --> 00:09:12,272 Speaker 6: long time, and granted, you know they had a couple 193 00:09:12,272 --> 00:09:15,032 Speaker 6: of shots in overtime one. You know, Nick Suzuki misses 194 00:09:15,072 --> 00:09:19,152 Speaker 6: the net, Mathison hits the post. But you know, Carolina, 195 00:09:19,192 --> 00:09:22,352 Speaker 6: the way they play their system, you know, they play 196 00:09:22,392 --> 00:09:24,432 Speaker 6: it to a t and I think it doesn't matter 197 00:09:24,472 --> 00:09:26,952 Speaker 6: who's in their lineup. And you mentioned the guy, especially 198 00:09:27,032 --> 00:09:29,272 Speaker 6: Craft Jarvis, these guys that only have a couple of goals. 199 00:09:29,352 --> 00:09:32,752 Speaker 6: I think that in its point right there shows how 200 00:09:32,752 --> 00:09:35,792 Speaker 6: good this team is and how they're getting different guys 201 00:09:35,792 --> 00:09:38,072 Speaker 6: to score, and how they play and how they're making 202 00:09:38,152 --> 00:09:39,032 Speaker 6: it hard in Montreal. 203 00:09:39,072 --> 00:09:40,512 Speaker 5: Like Montreal, they're. 204 00:09:40,352 --> 00:09:42,552 Speaker 6: Having a tough time breaking out at times because of 205 00:09:42,672 --> 00:09:46,152 Speaker 6: the over overpowering for check of Carolina and the way 206 00:09:46,152 --> 00:09:48,392 Speaker 6: they play on top of them. So Montreal, I mean, 207 00:09:48,992 --> 00:09:51,872 Speaker 6: they're gonna have to make some adjustments. I thought last 208 00:09:51,912 --> 00:09:54,152 Speaker 6: game that there's just too many times where they where 209 00:09:54,152 --> 00:09:55,752 Speaker 6: they would get the puck in their D zone and 210 00:09:55,792 --> 00:09:57,912 Speaker 6: try and find a different play, try to break the 211 00:09:57,912 --> 00:10:01,552 Speaker 6: puck out, tape to tape passes where sometimes against Carolina, 212 00:10:01,632 --> 00:10:04,152 Speaker 6: man you've got to live to fight another day and 213 00:10:04,392 --> 00:10:07,552 Speaker 6: you know, maybe get the pucking behind him and use 214 00:10:07,632 --> 00:10:11,272 Speaker 6: their game against them. I think Montreal for you know, 215 00:10:11,392 --> 00:10:13,552 Speaker 6: for a game, for the next game, you know, they're 216 00:10:13,792 --> 00:10:15,952 Speaker 6: gonna have to obviously in the big part of it, 217 00:10:15,992 --> 00:10:17,232 Speaker 6: they're gonna have to get more shots. 218 00:10:17,272 --> 00:10:17,392 Speaker 5: You know. 219 00:10:17,392 --> 00:10:19,552 Speaker 6: They're not a team that is like Carolina where they 220 00:10:19,552 --> 00:10:23,112 Speaker 6: have high shot volume. But for them to get chances, 221 00:10:23,152 --> 00:10:24,992 Speaker 6: to get looks, to make plays, they're gonna have to 222 00:10:25,112 --> 00:10:27,232 Speaker 6: establish a shot and they can't just get twelve a 223 00:10:27,272 --> 00:10:29,952 Speaker 6: game to be successful against Carolina. 224 00:10:30,592 --> 00:10:33,432 Speaker 2: Mistap smetch Nick on. 225 00:10:34,912 --> 00:10:37,672 Speaker 3: They're in trouble because that first line had their best 226 00:10:38,512 --> 00:10:44,192 Speaker 3: game of the playoffs, sketch Aho and Jarvis and he 227 00:10:44,912 --> 00:10:48,912 Speaker 3: especially Cops scores the game winner. No, I think Carolina 228 00:10:48,992 --> 00:10:53,712 Speaker 3: finally adjusted and they've kind of Rod's been, you know, 229 00:10:54,112 --> 00:10:56,592 Speaker 3: banging his head against the wall for years. Our system 230 00:10:56,632 --> 00:10:59,872 Speaker 3: will win eventually. But after Game one, when they were 231 00:11:00,192 --> 00:11:02,472 Speaker 3: pinching all over the ice, they made an adjustment that 232 00:11:02,592 --> 00:11:05,512 Speaker 3: no one's made against Montreal. And they've kept three guys 233 00:11:05,552 --> 00:11:07,592 Speaker 3: in the middle, not three guys in the middle. They've 234 00:11:07,672 --> 00:11:11,432 Speaker 3: kept their third guy high above the Montreal forwards while 235 00:11:11,472 --> 00:11:15,032 Speaker 3: they're still pinching with two guys pinching hard, and it's 236 00:11:15,072 --> 00:11:18,472 Speaker 3: created havoc for Montreal. Montreal can't break out clean. They're 237 00:11:18,512 --> 00:11:21,232 Speaker 3: a little bit because Montreal has been that classic counter 238 00:11:21,272 --> 00:11:23,792 Speaker 3: punch team and they just wait for you to kind 239 00:11:23,792 --> 00:11:24,632 Speaker 3: of overpressure them. 240 00:11:24,632 --> 00:11:25,832 Speaker 4: And they got so much skill. 241 00:11:26,432 --> 00:11:30,672 Speaker 3: Carolina took that away and it has been a tilting 242 00:11:30,752 --> 00:11:36,392 Speaker 3: of the momentum, like it's crazy. So Montreal's gonna have 243 00:11:36,432 --> 00:11:38,912 Speaker 3: to adjust right back. They've done it in every series, 244 00:11:39,392 --> 00:11:42,192 Speaker 3: so I expect to wrinkle out of Montreal tonight. 245 00:11:42,232 --> 00:11:43,112 Speaker 4: But I just don't know. 246 00:11:43,632 --> 00:11:45,872 Speaker 3: I think the only line that's been treading water has 247 00:11:45,912 --> 00:11:49,072 Speaker 3: been the top line. Every single other lines get absolutely 248 00:11:49,152 --> 00:11:54,672 Speaker 3: dominated statistically, analytically by Carolina in every fast and I 249 00:11:54,752 --> 00:11:58,832 Speaker 3: just think if that first line starts going for Carolina, 250 00:11:58,872 --> 00:12:02,792 Speaker 3: there are other three lines that played amazing hockey Eelers 251 00:12:02,872 --> 00:12:03,432 Speaker 3: is flying. 252 00:12:04,392 --> 00:12:05,952 Speaker 4: I mean, that Haull line is incredible. 253 00:12:05,992 --> 00:12:08,672 Speaker 3: That's their first line, and I just can't see it, man, 254 00:12:08,752 --> 00:12:12,952 Speaker 3: unless Freddy Anderson has a aneurysm and and starts playing 255 00:12:13,032 --> 00:12:16,112 Speaker 3: like Freddy from Toronto. But if he stays like this 256 00:12:16,232 --> 00:12:19,432 Speaker 3: at all, I think it's I think it might be 257 00:12:19,472 --> 00:12:21,712 Speaker 3: in five. My man might be in five for our 258 00:12:21,752 --> 00:12:24,672 Speaker 3: habby talents. I but I keep doubting these guys and 259 00:12:24,672 --> 00:12:27,072 Speaker 3: they keep proving me wrong, and I'm about to get 260 00:12:27,112 --> 00:12:30,992 Speaker 3: my citizenship revoked because of this from Canada. But I 261 00:12:31,152 --> 00:12:33,232 Speaker 3: just I want it to happen. I want to play 262 00:12:33,232 --> 00:12:35,552 Speaker 3: that song. I want to play that song again. 263 00:12:35,672 --> 00:12:38,712 Speaker 1: It is a great cham cal clo. And he's gonna 264 00:12:38,712 --> 00:12:41,232 Speaker 1: make a Tom Green reference to road Trip. Speaking of Freddy, 265 00:12:41,312 --> 00:12:43,312 Speaker 1: Freddy got fingered. Perhaps that'll be the. 266 00:12:43,272 --> 00:12:47,672 Speaker 3: Story Jesus finger banging, remember the move finger banging? 267 00:12:47,792 --> 00:12:49,632 Speaker 2: Tom Green movie? Yeah, Ripped Torn was great. 268 00:12:49,632 --> 00:12:52,352 Speaker 1: And let's talk further about Montreal JD and Lane Hudson 269 00:12:52,352 --> 00:12:53,952 Speaker 1: a huge piece for Montreal this season. 270 00:12:54,112 --> 00:12:55,712 Speaker 2: But how do you attack young defenseman? 271 00:12:56,032 --> 00:12:58,312 Speaker 1: You make it ugly, go physical at him, hit to 272 00:12:58,392 --> 00:13:00,712 Speaker 1: his leg from Taylor Hall and overtime in game two, 273 00:13:01,152 --> 00:13:03,272 Speaker 1: left limping efforts, didn't like to hit from home and 274 00:13:03,352 --> 00:13:06,392 Speaker 1: in Game three, high elbow from William Carryer moments later 275 00:13:06,672 --> 00:13:08,712 Speaker 1: giving up that puck to turn release to special the 276 00:13:08,752 --> 00:13:11,432 Speaker 1: cops ot winner. Hudson took the blame for the loss 277 00:13:11,552 --> 00:13:13,392 Speaker 1: after the game, though you could make the point he 278 00:13:13,392 --> 00:13:15,312 Speaker 1: wouldn't be an overtime let him and his goal tying 279 00:13:15,312 --> 00:13:17,512 Speaker 1: it for on the second. But as a young player 280 00:13:17,552 --> 00:13:20,272 Speaker 1: clearly being targeted, what does Hudson do how she react 281 00:13:20,312 --> 00:13:20,432 Speaker 1: to this. 282 00:13:21,472 --> 00:13:24,112 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's just it's more of a downscreen 283 00:13:24,152 --> 00:13:26,472 Speaker 3: from the forward group giving him some time, buy him 284 00:13:26,512 --> 00:13:28,912 Speaker 3: some time. You got to let him be able to move. 285 00:13:28,952 --> 00:13:32,832 Speaker 3: They've been all over him. I still think he's battled hard. 286 00:13:32,832 --> 00:13:35,232 Speaker 3: He's exceeded all expectations in the playoffs. 287 00:13:35,312 --> 00:13:35,592 Speaker 5: Lane. 288 00:13:35,632 --> 00:13:37,912 Speaker 4: I think Lane cannot hang his head one bit. 289 00:13:37,952 --> 00:13:40,192 Speaker 3: That was a big turnover. But I don't know where 290 00:13:40,192 --> 00:13:42,672 Speaker 3: slapcoff Ski was going on that play. He kind of 291 00:13:42,712 --> 00:13:46,152 Speaker 3: was just fading away from him, and I think Lane 292 00:13:46,232 --> 00:13:47,712 Speaker 3: was waiting for him to take the puck because Lane 293 00:13:47,712 --> 00:13:49,312 Speaker 3: had been on the ice for a long time and 294 00:13:49,472 --> 00:13:54,952 Speaker 3: he took a carrier William carrier forearm to the fucking 295 00:13:55,072 --> 00:13:58,512 Speaker 3: dome piece that got. That wasn't called Naton, that was 296 00:13:59,192 --> 00:14:01,352 Speaker 3: That was a penalty, even though you're not trying to 297 00:14:01,352 --> 00:14:04,752 Speaker 3: call penalties in the playoffs. In an overtime, that was 298 00:14:04,792 --> 00:14:07,112 Speaker 3: a two minute especially at that point. And then they 299 00:14:07,112 --> 00:14:10,872 Speaker 3: go and score after that. So I think he's been great. 300 00:14:11,432 --> 00:14:14,512 Speaker 3: He's got nothing to be sad about, you know. I 301 00:14:14,512 --> 00:14:17,112 Speaker 3: think the other guys and his team need to pick 302 00:14:17,152 --> 00:14:18,352 Speaker 3: it up big time. 303 00:14:18,392 --> 00:14:18,832 Speaker 5: I think the. 304 00:14:18,792 --> 00:14:21,152 Speaker 4: Dcors showed up pretty well for for Montreal. 305 00:14:21,192 --> 00:14:23,952 Speaker 3: In this series so far, Dobson struggled a bit, but 306 00:14:23,992 --> 00:14:25,792 Speaker 3: everyone else has showed up. But Nate, I think it's 307 00:14:25,832 --> 00:14:28,232 Speaker 3: got to be the the four lines up front. 308 00:14:28,312 --> 00:14:30,312 Speaker 4: They need to they need to go here. It needs 309 00:14:30,312 --> 00:14:30,992 Speaker 4: to be their time. 310 00:14:31,312 --> 00:14:33,672 Speaker 1: A glaring shot disparity as well, Nate, it should be said, 311 00:14:33,712 --> 00:14:34,072 Speaker 1: go ahead. 312 00:14:34,352 --> 00:14:36,912 Speaker 6: Yeah, No, He's right, it's got to be everyone. And 313 00:14:36,952 --> 00:14:39,432 Speaker 6: I do think no adopts this guy has to come 314 00:14:39,472 --> 00:14:40,992 Speaker 6: to the forefront a little bit more too. Yeah, he 315 00:14:41,032 --> 00:14:43,352 Speaker 6: made a good play last game. I got called back, 316 00:14:43,392 --> 00:14:46,032 Speaker 6: but he's he's another guy. Like being in the building, 317 00:14:46,072 --> 00:14:49,112 Speaker 6: you're seeing how much like every time they get a 318 00:14:49,192 --> 00:14:50,912 Speaker 6: chance to take a chunk out of lane, they do 319 00:14:50,992 --> 00:14:54,312 Speaker 6: it every time, whether it's whether it's a hit they 320 00:14:54,352 --> 00:14:56,472 Speaker 6: that's out of play, they're they're take they're taking a 321 00:14:56,552 --> 00:14:58,232 Speaker 6: hit on They're making it hard on him every single 322 00:14:58,272 --> 00:14:59,632 Speaker 6: time he's on the ice. 323 00:14:59,472 --> 00:15:00,792 Speaker 5: And he's fighting through it. He's having to. 324 00:15:01,112 --> 00:15:04,032 Speaker 6: And I thought last game was maybe the first time 325 00:15:04,112 --> 00:15:07,712 Speaker 6: that you know, in third period overtime that the Habs 326 00:15:07,752 --> 00:15:09,832 Speaker 6: looked a little ghasted.

He remains the all 362 00:17:02,312 --> 00:17:06,151 Speaker 1: time NHL leader in hits with Fourenty twenty nine, a 363 00:17:06,232 --> 00:17:09,312 Speaker 1: first ballot inductee in the Sports Mustache Hall of Fame, 364 00:17:09,552 --> 00:17:10,672 Speaker 1: and a riverside veteran. 365 00:17:10,792 --> 00:17:12,432 Speaker 2: Welcome, Cal Clutterbuck, great to see you. 366 00:17:12,872 --> 00:17:14,792 Speaker 8: Thanks for having me, fellas. It's gonna be fun. 367 00:17:15,472 --> 00:17:17,312 Speaker 1: Absolutely, we're gonna get into your career in all the 368 00:17:17,312 --> 00:17:19,071 Speaker 1: great stories that you have for us. But you've been 369 00:17:19,112 --> 00:17:21,472 Speaker 1: working on the media side since you're towering last year. 370 00:17:21,752 --> 00:17:23,712 Speaker 1: What'd you make of these Conference finals? The fact that 371 00:17:23,832 --> 00:17:26,592 Speaker 1: Vegas Golden Knights swept the Colorado. 372 00:17:26,152 --> 00:17:31,472 Speaker 8: Avalanche kind of a shocker, right, I mean, you know, 373 00:17:31,752 --> 00:17:34,752 Speaker 8: I think after watching Game one and then again in 374 00:17:34,792 --> 00:17:38,192 Speaker 8: Game two. I think I think I became a believer 375 00:17:38,272 --> 00:17:40,512 Speaker 8: in the Knights. I always felt like they were kind 376 00:17:40,552 --> 00:17:44,112 Speaker 8: of underachieving this year along the way. Obviously coaching change 377 00:17:44,152 --> 00:17:47,072 Speaker 8: late in the year controversial, obviously the right move. That 378 00:17:47,432 --> 00:17:50,072 Speaker 8: team just has the capability, they have, the horses, they 379 00:17:50,072 --> 00:17:53,952 Speaker 8: have the they have the pedigree. So it's all starting 380 00:17:53,992 --> 00:17:56,592 Speaker 8: to come out now. And I'm not sure they surprised 381 00:17:56,592 --> 00:17:58,952 Speaker 8: the Abs or not, but just the way that they 382 00:17:58,992 --> 00:18:03,912 Speaker 8: were playing so tight, weren't really given McKinnon and any 383 00:18:03,912 --> 00:18:06,591 Speaker 8: of those guys any room to breathe, and really it 384 00:18:06,632 --> 00:18:09,312 Speaker 8: was really suffocating. It was It was interesting to watch 385 00:18:09,432 --> 00:18:14,032 Speaker 8: a team like Colorado, you know, so adept offensively, so 386 00:18:14,112 --> 00:18:16,871 Speaker 8: adept at creating just kind of get shut down like that. 387 00:18:16,992 --> 00:18:19,752 Speaker 8: So really really interesting series for me. 388 00:18:20,832 --> 00:18:22,712 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Vegas is kind of put in the 389 00:18:22,712 --> 00:18:25,552 Speaker 3: blueprint of how to win. And I think if you're 390 00:18:25,632 --> 00:18:28,712 Speaker 3: any organization, like you know, we work with the Islanders, 391 00:18:29,592 --> 00:18:32,192 Speaker 3: and you get to see Matthew Shaeffer and these guys 392 00:18:32,192 --> 00:18:33,792 Speaker 3: who's going to have a long career in the in 393 00:18:33,832 --> 00:18:36,392 Speaker 3: the finals, sorry, in the finals, in the playoffs. But 394 00:18:36,872 --> 00:18:38,592 Speaker 3: you know, I just wanted to ask you quickly about 395 00:18:38,592 --> 00:18:42,672 Speaker 3: Matthew Shaeffer, because you know, Jordan Schmaltz said famously on 396 00:18:42,792 --> 00:18:45,192 Speaker 3: NHL Network that he came into training camp, pulled his 397 00:18:45,232 --> 00:18:48,071 Speaker 3: wrench out and told all the guys jump on. So 398 00:18:49,712 --> 00:18:53,592 Speaker 3: seeing him up close with MSG like, is he that 399 00:18:54,472 --> 00:18:56,952 Speaker 3: big dick energy? You don't have to answer that, but 400 00:18:56,992 --> 00:18:59,672 Speaker 3: you can answer just how high is this kid ceiling? 401 00:19:02,232 --> 00:19:03,672 Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know. I'll have to sneak into the 402 00:19:03,672 --> 00:19:05,352 Speaker 8: showers to get a look at his ranch. I haven't 403 00:19:05,352 --> 00:19:09,752 Speaker 8: been in a couple of years. I'm gonna have to 404 00:19:09,752 --> 00:19:11,552 Speaker 8: just pretend to have to go take a leak just 405 00:19:11,592 --> 00:19:13,352 Speaker 8: when he's in there, just to kind of take a feek. 406 00:19:16,232 --> 00:19:21,632 Speaker 8: But no, I mean, listen, it was that type of thing. Ironically, metaphorically, 407 00:19:21,672 --> 00:19:26,232 Speaker 8: it's probably correct. And he came in. You know, I'll 408 00:19:26,232 --> 00:19:29,592 Speaker 8: never forget. I was in the room getting something. I 409 00:19:29,632 --> 00:19:31,632 Speaker 8: think I was getting my skates sharpened or something to 410 00:19:31,632 --> 00:19:32,952 Speaker 8: go play Men's League and he was in there, a 411 00:19:33,072 --> 00:19:35,712 Speaker 8: rookie camp and I saw him from across the room 412 00:19:35,752 --> 00:19:37,912 Speaker 8: and he walked over and kind of dabbed me up 413 00:19:37,952 --> 00:19:39,632 Speaker 8: and was like, Hey, what's up? Man, can't wait to, 414 00:19:40,272 --> 00:19:44,032 Speaker 8: you know, hang out, And I was like, okay, you 415 00:19:44,072 --> 00:19:46,072 Speaker 8: know as an eighteen year old, like I would have 416 00:19:46,112 --> 00:19:48,792 Speaker 8: never done that, I don't think to a veteran. But 417 00:19:48,792 --> 00:19:49,952 Speaker 8: it was a good thing, you know, it was It 418 00:19:49,992 --> 00:19:52,992 Speaker 8: was good. He came over and and I just remember 419 00:19:52,992 --> 00:19:55,752 Speaker 8: feeling like this is different, and everyone kept saying he's different. 420 00:19:56,672 --> 00:19:58,032 Speaker 8: You didn't know how it was going to translate on 421 00:19:58,072 --> 00:20:00,672 Speaker 8: the ice. I honestly expected there to be some some 422 00:20:00,912 --> 00:20:04,192 Speaker 8: growing pains. Maybe maybe there were throughout the year, like 423 00:20:04,192 --> 00:20:07,152 Speaker 8: a little bit, but like on his standard, I mean, 424 00:20:07,192 --> 00:20:10,112 Speaker 8: the home opener was ridiculous. He I mean even the 425 00:20:10,352 --> 00:20:12,312 Speaker 8: first game in Pittsburgh he played great, but the home 426 00:20:12,352 --> 00:20:14,472 Speaker 8: opener when the place was kind of stale and you 427 00:20:14,512 --> 00:20:15,872 Speaker 8: kind of thought yourself, this is going to be the 428 00:20:15,912 --> 00:20:18,032 Speaker 8: same Islander team and the building's going to be dead 429 00:20:18,032 --> 00:20:20,232 Speaker 8: here for the whole year. And then he goes and 430 00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:22,032 Speaker 8: slides in on one knee and Pokes went in the 431 00:20:22,072 --> 00:20:24,712 Speaker 8: power play from the point like a spear fishing job, 432 00:20:24,752 --> 00:20:26,552 Speaker 8: and everyone went crazy and it was like all right, 433 00:20:26,592 --> 00:20:28,832 Speaker 8: he got up and like did the junior seally along 434 00:20:28,872 --> 00:20:31,192 Speaker 8: the glass, and you were like, okay, there's different. There's 435 00:20:31,192 --> 00:20:32,952 Speaker 8: a different energy to this place, and it only it 436 00:20:32,992 --> 00:20:33,672 Speaker 8: only got better. 437 00:20:34,952 --> 00:20:35,952 Speaker 5: Yeah, cal I mean this. 438 00:20:36,392 --> 00:20:38,272 Speaker 6: He is special for sure, and then you know, you 439 00:20:38,312 --> 00:20:40,672 Speaker 6: go to his do you think his buddy and your 440 00:20:40,672 --> 00:20:43,712 Speaker 6: old teammate, Matt Martin had something to do with some 441 00:20:43,752 --> 00:20:48,072 Speaker 6: of his success and was there any were there any 442 00:20:48,112 --> 00:20:51,632 Speaker 6: moments or scenarios that you have with Marty and Shafe 443 00:20:51,712 --> 00:20:52,351 Speaker 6: during the season. 444 00:20:53,472 --> 00:20:54,752 Speaker 8: I spent a lot of time with the two of 445 00:20:54,752 --> 00:20:58,152 Speaker 8: them throughout the year. Marty obviously a close friend of mine. 446 00:20:58,912 --> 00:21:02,272 Speaker 8: I think for Matthew, I think he's such a family 447 00:21:02,552 --> 00:21:06,872 Speaker 8: orientated kid that going into that scenario, and you got 448 00:21:06,872 --> 00:21:08,192 Speaker 8: to give him a lot of credit as much as 449 00:21:08,192 --> 00:21:10,032 Speaker 8: you've got to give them the Martins a lot of credit. 450 00:21:10,152 --> 00:21:12,472 Speaker 8: He just embraced it. I mean, they've got four kids 451 00:21:12,952 --> 00:21:16,032 Speaker 8: under five. He's at the rink all day. He's doing 452 00:21:16,352 --> 00:21:18,712 Speaker 8: you know the extra stuff that that phenoms do, you know, 453 00:21:18,792 --> 00:21:22,952 Speaker 8: the stuff that people don't see. Commercials, interviews, hospital visits. 454 00:21:22,992 --> 00:21:24,872 Speaker 8: You get to see clips of them. But he's busy 455 00:21:24,952 --> 00:21:27,672 Speaker 8: all day and then he gets home and and you 456 00:21:27,712 --> 00:21:29,832 Speaker 8: see those clips to him running around the kitchen with 457 00:21:29,832 --> 00:21:32,592 Speaker 8: with the girls and they've got, you know, twin boys 458 00:21:32,592 --> 00:21:34,632 Speaker 8: that are like eleven months old now, so that house 459 00:21:34,712 --> 00:21:37,952 Speaker 8: is full. But he's just that type of kid that 460 00:21:38,032 --> 00:21:41,071 Speaker 8: seems to seems to thrive in that environment. He just 461 00:21:41,152 --> 00:21:43,672 Speaker 8: I think he felt taken care of, and I think 462 00:21:43,712 --> 00:21:46,232 Speaker 8: in turn, he you know, he's you got to remember 463 00:21:46,272 --> 00:21:47,992 Speaker 8: he's he is just a kid. He was able to 464 00:21:47,992 --> 00:21:49,992 Speaker 8: be a kid in that house. I think it would 465 00:21:49,992 --> 00:21:51,432 Speaker 8: have been a different year for him had he been 466 00:21:51,432 --> 00:21:55,432 Speaker 8: going back to a to an apartment by himself sitting there. 467 00:21:55,712 --> 00:21:58,712 Speaker 8: You know, it just it's it's much different. And you know, 468 00:21:58,792 --> 00:22:00,312 Speaker 8: to the point where I don't know if he's gonna leave, 469 00:22:00,752 --> 00:22:02,352 Speaker 8: Like he might just live in the basement until he 470 00:22:02,392 --> 00:22:03,352 Speaker 8: has his own kids. 471 00:22:04,552 --> 00:22:06,112 Speaker 5: I would I. 472 00:22:06,072 --> 00:22:07,632 Speaker 4: Wouldn't either his girlfriend. 473 00:22:07,712 --> 00:22:09,392 Speaker 3: His girlfriend's gonna be like, two, you gotta get out. 474 00:22:09,432 --> 00:22:10,632 Speaker 3: He who We've been together for ten. 475 00:22:10,552 --> 00:22:13,872 Speaker 8: Years, dude, it's it is gonna be that situation. It's like, 476 00:22:13,872 --> 00:22:15,592 Speaker 8: at what point are we going to get our own place? 477 00:22:16,792 --> 00:22:19,232 Speaker 8: But no, he's Uh.

What was it like coming up with 484 00:22:35,472 --> 00:22:37,192 Speaker 1: those guys in well and Ontario. 485 00:22:38,472 --> 00:22:44,272 Speaker 8: Ah, well, this was a little different than the rest obviously, No, 486 00:22:46,152 --> 00:22:47,952 Speaker 8: but believe it or not, he wasn't he was not 487 00:22:48,072 --> 00:22:51,112 Speaker 8: bus nasty back then. He was he was square, he 488 00:22:51,272 --> 00:22:55,192 Speaker 8: was shy, he was kind of a brown noser, so 489 00:22:55,392 --> 00:22:58,192 Speaker 8: you know, he was different. Uh and then he went 490 00:22:58,232 --> 00:23:01,872 Speaker 8: to Wheeling, West Virginia and everything changed, but uh, you 491 00:23:01,912 --> 00:23:04,392 Speaker 8: know he Uh, those guys were great. It was really 492 00:23:04,432 --> 00:23:06,592 Speaker 8: good for me because you could see those guys taking 493 00:23:06,592 --> 00:23:08,272 Speaker 8: steps in front of you, like three years in front 494 00:23:08,312 --> 00:23:10,392 Speaker 8: of me, two years in front of me, Matt Ellis 495 00:23:10,432 --> 00:23:12,752 Speaker 8: and Jamie tardterf a couple of guys who got close 496 00:23:12,792 --> 00:23:14,872 Speaker 8: as well Andre Debou.

You can 498 00:23:17,392 --> 00:23:19,992 Speaker 8: see how they train, and you can see it's possible. 499 00:23:20,072 --> 00:23:22,232 Speaker 8: So you see a guy that's going graduating at every 500 00:23:22,312 --> 00:23:24,311 Speaker 8: level that you're graduating, and so you try and just 501 00:23:24,392 --> 00:23:26,992 Speaker 8: keep yourself in line with those guys in order to 502 00:23:26,992 --> 00:23:29,352 Speaker 8: get to where you want to go. But you know, 503 00:23:29,392 --> 00:23:30,552 Speaker 8: it would have it would have been a lot more 504 00:23:30,552 --> 00:23:33,392 Speaker 8: difficult if I didn't have if I didn't have someone 505 00:23:33,392 --> 00:23:34,872 Speaker 8: to look at that was close to me in age 506 00:23:34,912 --> 00:23:38,352 Speaker 8: that that I kind of knew able to do it. 507 00:23:38,512 --> 00:23:40,312 Speaker 8: I think there's there's more doubt in your mind where 508 00:23:40,312 --> 00:23:42,351 Speaker 8: you don't know somebody or don't see somebody doing it 509 00:23:43,112 --> 00:23:44,552 Speaker 8: just a little bit older than you. So I have 510 00:23:44,552 --> 00:23:46,232 Speaker 8: a lot of give a lot of credit to those guys. 511 00:23:47,232 --> 00:23:49,512 Speaker 3: Yeah, Cal, you know, you've had such a great career, 512 00:23:49,592 --> 00:23:52,912 Speaker 3: and you know the sometimes the second career is the 513 00:23:52,912 --> 00:23:55,192 Speaker 3: hardest to define for an athlete. You know, you're trying 514 00:23:55,192 --> 00:23:57,512 Speaker 3: to figure it out. And I feel like you slid 515 00:23:57,592 --> 00:23:59,232 Speaker 3: nicely into into media. 516 00:23:59,552 --> 00:24:00,831 Speaker 4: Was there ever a struggle with that? 517 00:24:01,152 --> 00:24:04,632 Speaker 3: And you know, is there any has there been any 518 00:24:04,792 --> 00:24:08,352 Speaker 3: kind of things that surprised you a little bit with it? 519 00:24:08,392 --> 00:24:11,712 Speaker 3: Because it is tough once you retire to kind of 520 00:24:11,712 --> 00:24:13,472 Speaker 3: red like I said, redefine yourself. 521 00:24:13,512 --> 00:24:14,512 Speaker 4: And you've done a great job. 522 00:24:14,552 --> 00:24:16,792 Speaker 3: So it's it's what has kind of been the struggles 523 00:24:16,792 --> 00:24:20,112 Speaker 3: of that and and what has been like you felt 524 00:24:20,112 --> 00:24:23,072 Speaker 3: that's maybe went more smoothly for you than you thought. 525 00:24:25,272 --> 00:24:27,752 Speaker 8: I wasn't I wasn't really ever expecting to do it. 526 00:24:28,872 --> 00:24:30,912 Speaker 8: I was probably that guy who when I was playing 527 00:24:31,032 --> 00:24:33,032 Speaker 8: like would would have been like, you won't catch me 528 00:24:33,112 --> 00:24:37,592 Speaker 8: dad doing that? So I'm I'm definitely a hypocrite sitting 529 00:24:37,632 --> 00:24:39,792 Speaker 8: here today after doing it for a couple of years. 530 00:24:40,192 --> 00:24:42,392 Speaker 4: So many nerds in media look at that, and then 531 00:24:42,472 --> 00:24:43,832 Speaker 4: very nerds. 532 00:24:43,472 --> 00:24:48,632 Speaker 8: In media, and then look at me now sitting here 533 00:24:48,632 --> 00:24:50,792 Speaker 8: answering questions about being a member of the media. So, 534 00:24:52,592 --> 00:24:54,992 Speaker 8: you know what, though, it really was for me. The 535 00:24:55,072 --> 00:24:57,192 Speaker 8: easiest part for me was when I first started. I 536 00:24:57,192 --> 00:24:59,992 Speaker 8: started as a guest on a pregame show, and it 537 00:25:00,072 --> 00:25:02,512 Speaker 8: was no pressure. I just kind of treated it like 538 00:25:02,552 --> 00:25:04,752 Speaker 8: it was an interview or like it was a pod cast, 539 00:25:04,832 --> 00:25:09,992 Speaker 8: and you know it was. It went well because I've 540 00:25:09,992 --> 00:25:13,192 Speaker 8: done so many interviews and I've done things like that, 541 00:25:13,312 --> 00:25:15,192 Speaker 8: and cameras don't really bother me, you know, you know 542 00:25:15,232 --> 00:25:17,832 Speaker 8: how it is. JD and Nate like you guys, you're 543 00:25:17,912 --> 00:25:19,752 Speaker 8: used to the camera. You clear that hurdle before you 544 00:25:19,792 --> 00:25:21,392 Speaker 8: even start. I think for a lot of people not 545 00:25:21,472 --> 00:25:24,232 Speaker 8: being used to cameras, there's a certain amount of nerves 546 00:25:24,272 --> 00:25:26,232 Speaker 8: that comes with when those lights could turn on, and 547 00:25:26,392 --> 00:25:30,552 Speaker 8: I didn't really have that. That was the easy part, 548 00:25:30,992 --> 00:25:32,792 Speaker 8: and then the hard part was as you evolve from 549 00:25:32,792 --> 00:25:35,472 Speaker 8: a guest to a regular and then you go from 550 00:25:35,832 --> 00:25:38,591 Speaker 8: being a pregame show to between the benches guy, and 551 00:25:38,632 --> 00:25:40,232 Speaker 8: then you go sit in the first chair. So the 552 00:25:40,232 --> 00:25:43,552 Speaker 8: evolution of that requires just a little bit different cadence, 553 00:25:43,592 --> 00:25:45,672 Speaker 8: a little bit different timing, and probably for me, the 554 00:25:45,672 --> 00:25:50,312 Speaker 8: biggest one was my energy, so my sort of annunciation, 555 00:25:51,152 --> 00:25:54,312 Speaker 8: my pronunciation, especially between the benches, because it's a little 556 00:25:54,312 --> 00:25:56,632 Speaker 8: harder here because you're kind of mixed in with game sound. 557 00:25:57,352 --> 00:25:59,472 Speaker 8: You have to be emphatic when you make your calls 558 00:25:59,952 --> 00:26:01,591 Speaker 8: a little bit out of my comfort zone because I'm 559 00:26:01,632 --> 00:26:05,552 Speaker 8: a pretty monotone regular speed guys. So I had to 560 00:26:05,592 --> 00:26:09,472 Speaker 8: sort of learn how to add some inflection and get 561 00:26:09,512 --> 00:26:11,591 Speaker 8: excited about it. And that was the hardest part for 562 00:26:11,632 --> 00:26:13,632 Speaker 8: me at the beginning is you know, you're a player. 563 00:26:14,272 --> 00:26:16,752 Speaker 8: You know that there's a game that might be over, 564 00:26:17,072 --> 00:26:18,952 Speaker 8: but there's a play that happens. Let's say the Islanders 565 00:26:18,952 --> 00:26:21,112 Speaker 8: are down four to one or you know, three to one, 566 00:26:21,152 --> 00:26:23,352 Speaker 8: but you can see how the game's trending, and you're like, 567 00:26:23,672 --> 00:26:25,472 Speaker 8: this is an exciting for Islander fans. And then they 568 00:26:25,512 --> 00:26:28,032 Speaker 8: score one late to get in and Brendan Burk's like 569 00:26:28,072 --> 00:26:30,912 Speaker 8: and the Islanders come within one, and I'm like, yeah, 570 00:26:31,072 --> 00:26:33,792 Speaker 8: nice play by Horrorbat. And there's a couple of moments, 571 00:26:34,712 --> 00:26:36,552 Speaker 8: a couple of moments like that, you know, where I 572 00:26:36,632 --> 00:26:38,832 Speaker 8: was just like I kind of didn't I wasn't able 573 00:26:38,872 --> 00:26:41,472 Speaker 8: to sort of rise to the to the energy level. 574 00:26:42,512 --> 00:26:44,672 Speaker 8: But just a couple of quick notes from a producer 575 00:26:44,712 --> 00:26:46,752 Speaker 8: and then you know, you start to like just you 576 00:26:46,832 --> 00:26:48,792 Speaker 8: go over the top what I think is over the top, 577 00:26:48,832 --> 00:26:50,871 Speaker 8: and then I get a note say that's perfect. So 578 00:26:50,912 --> 00:26:52,392 Speaker 8: then you just kind of stick with that talk a 579 00:26:52,392 --> 00:26:56,632 Speaker 8: little louder and things like that. And just for me, 580 00:26:56,672 --> 00:26:59,792 Speaker 8: the amount of work, like doing the pregame show, the 581 00:27:00,072 --> 00:27:02,912 Speaker 8: between the benches, the intermissions, and the post game is 582 00:27:02,952 --> 00:27:04,392 Speaker 8: a lot of running around and it's a lot of 583 00:27:04,432 --> 00:27:06,952 Speaker 8: it's different styles, so you're mixing in a studio show, 584 00:27:07,072 --> 00:27:10,071 Speaker 8: running right to in game commentary, running up the stairs 585 00:27:10,112 --> 00:27:14,432 Speaker 8: to do you know studios. So a lot of a 586 00:27:14,432 --> 00:27:17,512 Speaker 8: lot of kind of switching gears. But it's been a 587 00:27:17,552 --> 00:27:19,352 Speaker 8: lot of fun, and I just continue to try and 588 00:27:19,392 --> 00:27:21,912 Speaker 8: get better. And uh, I've got a great team there 589 00:27:21,912 --> 00:27:23,912 Speaker 8: in New York of you know, Thomas and Brendan and 590 00:27:23,992 --> 00:27:27,552 Speaker 8: Channon do a really good job. So I was lucky. 591 00:27:27,592 --> 00:27:30,632 Speaker 8: I was lucky to uh, I've been lucky to be 592 00:27:30,672 --> 00:27:31,392 Speaker 8: able to work with them. 593 00:27:32,472 --> 00:27:34,512 Speaker 6: Yeah, cal This will follow up with that is is 594 00:27:34,552 --> 00:27:38,392 Speaker 6: there any analysts or guys that you watch just to 595 00:27:38,472 --> 00:27:40,992 Speaker 6: kind of go off of and and and why is 596 00:27:41,032 --> 00:27:41,752 Speaker 6: it not Biz? 597 00:27:43,872 --> 00:27:45,952 Speaker 8: One thing I will say about One thing I will 598 00:27:45,952 --> 00:27:48,912 Speaker 8: say about Biz is that he's worked really hard. And 599 00:27:49,072 --> 00:27:52,312 Speaker 8: if you watch him, aside from the the Tom foolery, 600 00:27:52,352 --> 00:27:55,632 Speaker 8: he's worked really hard at getting his hockey analysis. You know, 601 00:27:55,792 --> 00:27:57,952 Speaker 8: I think what he says, he says it in a 602 00:27:57,952 --> 00:27:59,952 Speaker 8: Biz way, but a lot of what he says, you know, 603 00:28:00,032 --> 00:28:02,232 Speaker 8: makes a lot of sense. I think he has good takes. Yeah, 604 00:28:03,552 --> 00:28:05,232 Speaker 8: And so I think he's at that. You know, I 605 00:28:05,272 --> 00:28:08,512 Speaker 8: think he watches hockey. I think he pays attention. I 606 00:28:08,512 --> 00:28:11,111 Speaker 8: think he genuinely asked questions to the guys he's working with. 607 00:28:11,152 --> 00:28:12,712 Speaker 8: I hear stories about him. When he was working with 608 00:28:12,792 --> 00:28:15,712 Speaker 8: Rick Taki, they would spend time talking about the game. 609 00:28:15,752 --> 00:28:17,752 Speaker 8: And so I have to give him a lot of 610 00:28:17,752 --> 00:28:19,272 Speaker 8: credit for that. And then you have to give him 611 00:28:19,312 --> 00:28:22,912 Speaker 8: credit for for letting his personality carry him. You know, 612 00:28:22,952 --> 00:28:25,952 Speaker 8: he's he does something different than everyone and that's why 613 00:28:25,992 --> 00:28:28,192 Speaker 8: he's in the position that he's in, and so you 614 00:28:28,272 --> 00:28:30,272 Speaker 8: got to give him give him credit on both sides 615 00:28:30,272 --> 00:28:31,831 Speaker 8: of that. But he does a good job of balancing that, 616 00:28:31,872 --> 00:28:34,392 Speaker 8: I think these days, but you know, I always liked 617 00:28:34,392 --> 00:28:37,992 Speaker 8: watching the older guys. I think Ray Ferraro is probably 618 00:28:37,992 --> 00:28:40,752 Speaker 8: the one that has a kind of perfect mix of 619 00:28:41,432 --> 00:28:45,272 Speaker 8: energy and passion for the game and knowledge of the players, 620 00:28:45,592 --> 00:28:49,792 Speaker 8: but also just calling the play as it is, but 621 00:28:49,792 --> 00:28:53,752 Speaker 8: but from a hockey players from a former player's, you know, mindset. 622 00:28:54,512 --> 00:28:57,232 Speaker 8: He does a really good job. I really like Eddie, 623 00:28:57,232 --> 00:29:02,792 Speaker 8: ol Chick and boush together, obviously for different reasons. I 624 00:29:02,832 --> 00:29:05,832 Speaker 8: think for for me, those two play off each other 625 00:29:05,952 --> 00:29:08,192 Speaker 8: very well, and Thomas and I obviously for the Islanders 626 00:29:08,192 --> 00:29:10,912 Speaker 8: are probably going to be in those two positions for 627 00:29:10,992 --> 00:29:14,272 Speaker 8: a couple of years. So just sort of learning from 628 00:29:14,392 --> 00:29:16,992 Speaker 8: from Boushe on when you know one to when to 629 00:29:17,032 --> 00:29:20,112 Speaker 8: come in, and then you know Eddie using them for 630 00:29:20,232 --> 00:29:24,272 Speaker 8: different things, different perspectives, and they're on nationally, so you watch, 631 00:29:24,312 --> 00:29:27,112 Speaker 8: you watch a lot of those guys, and you know 632 00:29:27,152 --> 00:29:29,232 Speaker 8: that come that kind of becomes the standard, right I mean, 633 00:29:29,272 --> 00:29:31,232 Speaker 8: you those guys have been doing it for so long. 634 00:29:31,312 --> 00:29:31,992 Speaker 8: They do a great joke. 635 00:29:33,152 --> 00:29:35,232 Speaker 1: I echo the positive thoughts for Thomas Sicky. Of course 636 00:29:35,232 --> 00:29:36,872 Speaker 1: my team at an Amazon Prime, so you guys are 637 00:29:36,872 --> 00:29:40,032 Speaker 1: definitely terrific together. Cal let's talk specifically about you your 638 00:29:40,032 --> 00:29:42,832 Speaker 1: port to Houston the HL as the youngest player on 639 00:29:42,872 --> 00:29:45,432 Speaker 1: the team. You score on your first shot on your 640 00:29:45,472 --> 00:29:49,752 Speaker 1: first shift in your first pro game, cockumust of felt easy. 641 00:29:50,032 --> 00:29:50,672 Speaker 5: Easy game. 642 00:29:52,032 --> 00:29:54,152 Speaker 8: Yeah, Well the problem was was the HL not the NHL, 643 00:29:54,232 --> 00:29:57,432 Speaker 8: so it didn't matter. I only scored. 644 00:29:57,512 --> 00:29:57,992 Speaker 4: Uh. 645 00:29:58,952 --> 00:30:00,792 Speaker 8: I think I only scored twelve times that year, So 646 00:30:00,832 --> 00:30:04,632 Speaker 8: it was uh. It was a fast and furious art 647 00:30:04,632 --> 00:30:09,672 Speaker 8: and some learning curves in the middle, but uh, yeah, no, 648 00:30:09,992 --> 00:30:12,432 Speaker 8: Houston was was good. That was kind of a shell shock. 649 00:30:12,472 --> 00:30:14,232 Speaker 8: That's you know, that's the first year where you're on 650 00:30:14,272 --> 00:30:14,552 Speaker 8: your own. 651 00:30:14,592 --> 00:30:14,912 Speaker 5: I was. 652 00:30:14,992 --> 00:30:18,152 Speaker 8: I was young enough coming out of junior and moving 653 00:30:18,152 --> 00:30:20,472 Speaker 8: out of a bill at home into Houston, Texas, one 654 00:30:20,512 --> 00:30:25,592 Speaker 8: of the biggest largest cities in America.

I would go over 691 00:32:08,112 --> 00:32:10,592 Speaker 8: there and hang out, and he asked me one time 692 00:32:10,632 --> 00:32:12,712 Speaker 8: if I wanted to feed the python because it was 693 00:32:12,752 --> 00:32:16,912 Speaker 8: feeding time, and you know, you could picture me like 694 00:32:16,912 --> 00:32:18,752 Speaker 8: like Tom Green and road trip, just like is it 695 00:32:18,792 --> 00:32:20,232 Speaker 8: time for the feeding yet? Is it time for the 696 00:32:20,592 --> 00:32:27,352 Speaker 8: So we go into the freezer. We grab like an 697 00:32:27,352 --> 00:32:29,832 Speaker 8: eight pound frozen rabbit. He goes and smacks it on 698 00:32:29,872 --> 00:32:31,472 Speaker 8: the concrete a couple of times, and I'm like, what 699 00:32:31,512 --> 00:32:33,192 Speaker 8: are you doing. He's like, gotta bloody it up a 700 00:32:33,192 --> 00:32:35,032 Speaker 8: little or he won't eat it. So he's like put 701 00:32:35,032 --> 00:32:37,312 Speaker 8: the glove on, and then you gotta shake it. You know, 702 00:32:37,312 --> 00:32:38,672 Speaker 8: you got to shake it in the cage because you 703 00:32:38,672 --> 00:32:40,832 Speaker 8: got to eat the snake's gotta think. He's like, you know, 704 00:32:40,952 --> 00:32:43,712 Speaker 8: chasing something that's alive. So I got my hand in 705 00:32:43,752 --> 00:32:46,992 Speaker 8: the cage shaking this eight pound rabbit, and the thing 706 00:32:47,112 --> 00:32:50,152 Speaker 8: like circles around and comes over slowly and then just 707 00:32:50,192 --> 00:32:54,312 Speaker 8: like wax it and then it starts just taking it down, 708 00:32:54,352 --> 00:32:56,792 Speaker 8: you know, the jaw on hinges, and this rabbit just disappears. 709 00:32:56,872 --> 00:33:00,512 Speaker 8: I'm sitting there watching and I was like, that's crazy, 710 00:33:00,552 --> 00:33:02,192 Speaker 8: and he's just like, yeah, he's good for like a 711 00:33:02,232 --> 00:33:04,272 Speaker 8: month and a half, six weeks, So it'll take him 712 00:33:04,272 --> 00:33:05,872 Speaker 8: to get through that thing and I'll feed him in 713 00:33:06,032 --> 00:33:08,712 Speaker 8: you know, another month. This is crazy. He had like 714 00:33:08,832 --> 00:33:10,352 Speaker 8: he had so many of them. They were in drawers. 715 00:33:10,392 --> 00:33:12,152 Speaker 8: That guy got out one time. They found him like 716 00:33:12,152 --> 00:33:17,312 Speaker 8: three days later, wrapped around the water heater. So interesting, yeah, interesting. 717 00:33:16,952 --> 00:33:21,312 Speaker 4: Time, my god. Yeah, yeah, for three days. 718 00:33:21,432 --> 00:33:23,392 Speaker 8: He didn't care. It was just like, oh, whatever, where 719 00:33:23,552 --> 00:33:27,232 Speaker 8: it'll be somewhere, we'll find it. Big dog just just 720 00:33:27,272 --> 00:33:31,632 Speaker 8: wrapped around the water here. Uh, he's done. He's He's 721 00:33:31,672 --> 00:33:34,112 Speaker 8: got so many cool quirky things. But to his to 722 00:33:34,192 --> 00:33:37,352 Speaker 8: his uh you know, his longevity, I think like this 723 00:33:37,472 --> 00:33:39,672 Speaker 8: strength in him and his and his youthful mind. And 724 00:33:39,712 --> 00:33:42,392 Speaker 8: I say youthful mind in a positive and negative way, 725 00:33:42,432 --> 00:33:43,992 Speaker 8: because he's like a nine year old, you know him, right, 726 00:33:44,032 --> 00:33:47,272 Speaker 8: He's yeah, he had but he has the energy of 727 00:33:47,272 --> 00:33:50,272 Speaker 8: the of a child. He doesn't have the same he 728 00:33:50,312 --> 00:33:52,072 Speaker 8: doesn't have the same issues that we all had as 729 00:33:52,112 --> 00:33:53,752 Speaker 8: we got older, like, oh my god, I gotta do 730 00:33:53,792 --> 00:33:56,552 Speaker 8: this again. He's just like he wakes up, bounces out 731 00:33:56,592 --> 00:33:59,112 Speaker 8: of bed, probably at six thirty like a you know, 732 00:33:59,192 --> 00:34:01,032 Speaker 8: like my eight year old son does. And he's just like, 733 00:34:01,072 --> 00:34:02,672 Speaker 8: do I have a hockey game today? Yeah, let's go, 734 00:34:03,232 --> 00:34:06,272 Speaker 8: you know. And he takes care of himself obviously strong 735 00:34:06,272 --> 00:34:09,312 Speaker 8: as an ox and uh has always taken good care 736 00:34:09,312 --> 00:34:12,751 Speaker 8: of himself, and obviously it's gone to another level over 737 00:34:12,792 --> 00:34:14,832 Speaker 8: the last couple of years with the backpack and all 738 00:34:14,872 --> 00:34:17,392 Speaker 8: the stuff. But I think it's his brain. I think 739 00:34:17,392 --> 00:34:20,151 Speaker 8: it's just his positive outlook on it and his his 740 00:34:20,352 --> 00:34:23,591 Speaker 8: sort of youthful exuberance that he's never allowed kind of 741 00:34:24,152 --> 00:34:26,911 Speaker 8: to leave him, which is the most impressive thing for me. 742 00:34:28,511 --> 00:34:30,791 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think he's done either. I think he's 743 00:34:30,832 --> 00:34:31,592 Speaker 5: going to keep going. 744 00:34:32,272 --> 00:34:36,672 Speaker 3: The wife sus I don't know, kind of Susan's getting 745 00:34:36,712 --> 00:34:37,751 Speaker 3: close to the end of the road. 746 00:34:37,951 --> 00:34:41,271 Speaker 4: Yeah, Susan's definitely might squeak out one more. 747 00:34:41,152 --> 00:34:42,472 Speaker 5: But we'll see. 748 00:34:42,471 --> 00:34:44,752 Speaker 6: I guess you you know, when you get to the 749 00:34:44,792 --> 00:34:47,631 Speaker 6: Islanders cal you know, I was a fourth line guy 750 00:34:47,672 --> 00:34:49,951 Speaker 6: and you played with Matt Martin. 751 00:34:52,352 --> 00:34:54,272 Speaker 5: It was the best fourth line in the league. 752 00:34:54,712 --> 00:34:57,471 Speaker 6: You know, talk about your guys' chemistry and and how 753 00:34:57,551 --> 00:35:00,591 Speaker 6: fast it took you guys to be a force out there. 754 00:35:01,631 --> 00:35:04,991 Speaker 8: Yeah, I got traded there. I got there in twenty 755 00:35:05,071 --> 00:35:09,312 Speaker 8: thirteen in the summer. And that first year we didn't 756 00:35:09,312 --> 00:35:12,511 Speaker 8: play together. I think they were playing with Colin McDonald 757 00:35:12,631 --> 00:35:15,832 Speaker 8: at the time, so there was c mac. I was 758 00:35:15,872 --> 00:35:17,792 Speaker 8: playing kind of kind of on the third line. We 759 00:35:17,872 --> 00:35:19,872 Speaker 8: did not have a great year after they the Islanders 760 00:35:19,911 --> 00:35:22,192 Speaker 8: had made the playoffs in that shortened lockout season for 761 00:35:22,232 --> 00:35:24,551 Speaker 8: the first time in a long time, so there was 762 00:35:24,591 --> 00:35:27,392 Speaker 8: high expectations. We didn't make the playoffs that first year. 763 00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:31,031 Speaker 8: We came back the following year and we had some 764 00:35:31,071 --> 00:35:33,551 Speaker 8: younger guys. Ryan Strom was coming in brock Nelson's rookie 765 00:35:33,591 --> 00:35:36,671 Speaker 8: year andrews Lee as well, so the team kind of 766 00:35:36,672 --> 00:35:41,071 Speaker 8: took on a little different shape. And like Jack Capiano 767 00:35:41,152 --> 00:35:42,511 Speaker 8: came up to me one time and he's like, I 768 00:35:42,712 --> 00:35:45,832 Speaker 8: think I'm gonna try you with with Casey and Marty 769 00:35:45,872 --> 00:35:50,312 Speaker 8: and and I said, yeah, no problem. He said, if 770 00:35:50,352 --> 00:35:51,951 Speaker 8: it works out, I'm gonna use you guys more than 771 00:35:51,951 --> 00:35:53,911 Speaker 8: I typically would. So don't you know, just go and 772 00:35:53,911 --> 00:35:56,471 Speaker 8: do your thing. You know, I think you can. You 773 00:35:56,511 --> 00:35:58,951 Speaker 8: guys would be good together. We all had different sort 774 00:35:58,991 --> 00:36:00,792 Speaker 8: of skill sets, and we all had one sort of 775 00:36:00,792 --> 00:36:03,471 Speaker 8: constant theme. We all kind of played the game with 776 00:36:03,551 --> 00:36:07,872 Speaker 8: the same level of kind of pace at the time 777 00:36:07,951 --> 00:36:11,111 Speaker 8: in mindset. So we started and it just it went well. 778 00:36:11,152 --> 00:36:13,191 Speaker 8: You know, I think the first first game we had, 779 00:36:13,192 --> 00:36:15,511 Speaker 8: we kind of want to face off to start the game, 780 00:36:15,591 --> 00:36:17,272 Speaker 8: dumped it in. You know, we've seen the movie a 781 00:36:17,272 --> 00:36:19,151 Speaker 8: thousand times already, to go in get a hit. I'd 782 00:36:19,192 --> 00:36:20,792 Speaker 8: go to they go D to D. I'd go hit 783 00:36:20,792 --> 00:36:23,231 Speaker 8: the other defenseman in case you would get over top 784 00:36:23,792 --> 00:36:26,711 Speaker 8: a couple couple of point shots twenty five second shift, 785 00:36:26,911 --> 00:36:29,071 Speaker 8: the goalie would freeze the puck the coliseum, we'd be 786 00:36:29,111 --> 00:36:31,031 Speaker 8: going crazy. We'd skate off. We did our job, and 787 00:36:31,071 --> 00:36:33,191 Speaker 8: we just kind of kept going from there. But it 788 00:36:33,232 --> 00:36:36,711 Speaker 8: really evolved. We played together for so long, it really 789 00:36:36,712 --> 00:36:39,031 Speaker 8: evolved to the point where we could go out there 790 00:36:39,031 --> 00:36:41,832 Speaker 8: and play against other teams, like really top players, and 791 00:36:41,872 --> 00:36:44,431 Speaker 8: we did that, you know, kind of just chipping away 792 00:36:44,431 --> 00:36:46,672 Speaker 8: at their best defenseman, chipping away at their best forwards. 793 00:36:46,712 --> 00:36:48,551 Speaker 8: In this a couple of playoff series against Pittsburgh, we 794 00:36:48,591 --> 00:36:50,791 Speaker 8: played against it a lot. He didn't do a whole 795 00:36:50,832 --> 00:36:53,991 Speaker 8: lot so we really had the ability to go out 796 00:36:54,031 --> 00:36:57,151 Speaker 8: there and give our offensive guys to the freedom to 797 00:36:57,152 --> 00:37:02,872 Speaker 8: go out and play offense against you know, bottom bottom 798 00:37:02,911 --> 00:37:04,551 Speaker 8: six lines on the other team. I think it was 799 00:37:04,551 --> 00:37:07,392 Speaker 8: a big advantage for us. And obviously the physical element. 800 00:37:07,431 --> 00:37:09,352 Speaker 8: I think we were just really good at setting the tone. 801 00:37:09,551 --> 00:37:11,511 Speaker 8: You know, as they say in choresy, he's got to 802 00:37:11,551 --> 00:37:12,872 Speaker 8: set the tone. We would go out there for. 803 00:37:12,872 --> 00:37:16,792 Speaker 3: A shift to set very bulldogs that's right. So we 804 00:37:16,792 --> 00:37:18,672 Speaker 3: were really very bulldog line. 805 00:37:19,511 --> 00:37:25,872 Speaker 8: We were the gym's the gyms so good. Yeah, this 806 00:37:25,991 --> 00:37:26,832 Speaker 8: is the gym's. 807 00:37:28,352 --> 00:37:32,192 Speaker 1: Uh cal Loula Morella comes the Islanders, immediately imposes anti 808 00:37:32,272 --> 00:37:34,111 Speaker 1: facial hair rules and I have a great deal of 809 00:37:34,111 --> 00:37:36,832 Speaker 1: respect for lou always accomplished in hockey, but I never 810 00:37:36,872 --> 00:37:38,911 Speaker 1: really understood these types of rules. How rough was it 811 00:37:38,951 --> 00:37:40,911 Speaker 1: for you having to shave on the sweetest stashes in 812 00:37:40,951 --> 00:37:41,431 Speaker 1: the NHL? 813 00:37:42,551 --> 00:37:45,231 Speaker 8: It was a It was an adjustment period for me. 814 00:37:45,752 --> 00:37:48,152 Speaker 8: Even the beard liked. I like having a beard and 815 00:37:48,951 --> 00:37:51,751 Speaker 8: trying to be trying to be an intimidated, intimidating guy 816 00:37:51,752 --> 00:37:57,071 Speaker 8: out there. You know, I wasn't that intimidating for clean 817 00:37:57,071 --> 00:37:59,551 Speaker 8: shaven with a homet on. Honestly, look at the photos 818 00:37:59,551 --> 00:38:01,751 Speaker 8: of those seven or eight years and the young guys 819 00:38:01,792 --> 00:38:04,071 Speaker 8: who came in must have been like, man, what a pussy. 820 00:38:04,551 --> 00:38:06,591 Speaker 4: And with a neck crash too. 821 00:38:11,031 --> 00:38:13,751 Speaker 8: Yeah, just raspberry neck out there, just you know, chin 822 00:38:13,832 --> 00:38:17,872 Speaker 8: strap just irritating me every single morning. But it was, 823 00:38:17,911 --> 00:38:20,031 Speaker 8: you know, it's one of those rules where obviously our 824 00:38:20,071 --> 00:38:23,631 Speaker 8: team sort of took on, uh, you know, the the 825 00:38:23,752 --> 00:38:26,911 Speaker 8: ultimate Lou sort of aura that was kind of the Islanders. 826 00:38:26,911 --> 00:38:30,352 Speaker 8: We were so predictable but very hard to beat. And 827 00:38:31,991 --> 00:38:33,591 Speaker 8: you know, we we had some good years with Low 828 00:38:33,631 --> 00:38:35,991 Speaker 8: and he really does know how to instill, you know, 829 00:38:36,272 --> 00:38:38,631 Speaker 8: a culture in a group of guys with not that 830 00:38:38,712 --> 00:38:41,032 Speaker 8: we really needed it, but we needed it. We needed 831 00:38:41,031 --> 00:38:43,351 Speaker 8: a boost and a reminder constantly. And he's he keeps 832 00:38:43,352 --> 00:38:45,072 Speaker 8: the standard. You know, we kind of had a standard 833 00:38:45,071 --> 00:38:47,031 Speaker 8: for ourselves and he elevated it just a little bit. 834 00:38:47,031 --> 00:38:49,392 Speaker 8: And then he brought Barry in, so things went from 835 00:38:49,471 --> 00:38:54,792 Speaker 8: being slightly less professional on Long Island to very legit, 836 00:38:55,031 --> 00:38:56,872 Speaker 8: very professional, very very structured. 837 00:38:58,152 --> 00:39:00,191 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, what is it about Lou? 838 00:39:00,312 --> 00:39:02,431 Speaker 3: Is it the fact that he's there every day and 839 00:39:02,471 --> 00:39:04,392 Speaker 3: you just always see him and he's on the road 840 00:39:04,672 --> 00:39:08,511 Speaker 3: and or is it just the because there are guys 841 00:39:08,551 --> 00:39:11,872 Speaker 3: that like him, and I think most guys that have 842 00:39:11,951 --> 00:39:14,911 Speaker 3: had that have played for him or under him. Is 843 00:39:15,872 --> 00:39:18,791 Speaker 3: kind of has some positive things to say at times. 844 00:39:18,872 --> 00:39:21,832 Speaker 3: And I don't know if it's just he's misunderstood, but 845 00:39:21,951 --> 00:39:24,352 Speaker 3: I know the hard ass side of him is really 846 00:39:24,911 --> 00:39:27,312 Speaker 3: one of those things that it's you have to be 847 00:39:27,352 --> 00:39:29,591 Speaker 3: a part of the organization to really see what he 848 00:39:29,631 --> 00:39:31,792 Speaker 3: does day in and day out. 849 00:39:32,672 --> 00:39:35,031 Speaker 8: Yeah, it looks hard. It looks like a hard ass 850 00:39:35,111 --> 00:39:37,112 Speaker 8: from the outside. I even thought the same thing before 851 00:39:37,111 --> 00:39:39,151 Speaker 8: he came. I was like, Oh, it's just it's gonna 852 00:39:39,192 --> 00:39:42,071 Speaker 8: be more difficult, like we're gonna have somebody you know, 853 00:39:42,511 --> 00:39:44,872 Speaker 8: up your ass all the time. And it's really not 854 00:39:44,991 --> 00:39:47,992 Speaker 8: like that. It's like the rules. He doesn't really have rules. 855 00:39:47,991 --> 00:39:50,352 Speaker 8: It's just like be a good teammate, be a good 856 00:39:50,392 --> 00:39:54,031 Speaker 8: human being, be on time, like all the things, and 857 00:39:54,111 --> 00:39:58,871 Speaker 8: shake your face and it's just it's just a self 858 00:39:58,911 --> 00:40:01,712 Speaker 8: respect thing. And I think for for pros who are pros, 859 00:40:01,752 --> 00:40:03,471 Speaker 8: like you know, you do TV and you're like, this 860 00:40:03,471 --> 00:40:05,672 Speaker 8: guy's been a pros pro for a long time. Whether 861 00:40:05,712 --> 00:40:07,272 Speaker 8: he has to shave or he doesn't shave, he's going 862 00:40:07,352 --> 00:40:09,392 Speaker 8: to do it because that's just who a pro is. 863 00:40:09,471 --> 00:40:10,911 Speaker 8: I think he does it for the guys who are 864 00:40:10,951 --> 00:40:14,272 Speaker 8: learning to be pros. It's just another thing, it's another checkbox. 865 00:40:14,752 --> 00:40:17,071 Speaker 8: It's like to make your bed situation. You know, you 866 00:40:17,071 --> 00:40:19,511 Speaker 8: hear a lot of these former special Ops guys and 867 00:40:19,511 --> 00:40:22,231 Speaker 8: it starts with a very minute, basic task. But if 868 00:40:22,272 --> 00:40:25,112 Speaker 8: you do it consistently every day, your day starts off 869 00:40:25,392 --> 00:40:28,511 Speaker 8: in a positive way. So that's that's that was the 870 00:40:28,511 --> 00:40:31,192 Speaker 8: impetus behind that. But for lou what's great about louis 871 00:40:31,192 --> 00:40:33,872 Speaker 8: you're always taken care of and you have to worry 872 00:40:33,911 --> 00:40:36,551 Speaker 8: about nothing but playing hockey. So like you know, a 873 00:40:36,551 --> 00:40:39,911 Speaker 8: lot of teams will have casino knights and they'll have 874 00:40:40,352 --> 00:40:42,872 Speaker 8: you know, uh, season ticket holder events, and not that 875 00:40:42,872 --> 00:40:45,031 Speaker 8: those aren't great, but when you're in the middle of 876 00:40:45,071 --> 00:40:47,071 Speaker 8: a season and you come off an eight game road 877 00:40:47,071 --> 00:40:48,911 Speaker 8: trip and you've got a Monday off and you have 878 00:40:48,951 --> 00:40:52,191 Speaker 8: to go be a you know, casino night at six pm, 879 00:40:52,551 --> 00:40:56,431 Speaker 8: it's difficult. We just played hockey and the fans didn't 880 00:40:56,511 --> 00:40:58,591 Speaker 8: like it, but it was the best thing for us 881 00:40:58,712 --> 00:41:01,671 Speaker 8: at the time. We were such so focused as a 882 00:41:01,672 --> 00:41:03,031 Speaker 8: group and it was one of those things where he 883 00:41:03,192 --> 00:41:06,311 Speaker 8: is always there. He's he's always around, even when you're 884 00:41:06,431 --> 00:41:09,031 Speaker 8: chit chatting about something and then you get the eyeballs 885 00:41:09,031 --> 00:41:11,111 Speaker 8: from your teammate who's sitting on the trainer's table, like 886 00:41:11,152 --> 00:41:14,512 Speaker 8: looking at you, like he's standing round. Yeah, he's standing 887 00:41:14,551 --> 00:41:19,152 Speaker 8: over your shoulder. So it was he always is around. 888 00:41:19,232 --> 00:41:21,671 Speaker 8: And so the good thing about that is that you 889 00:41:21,752 --> 00:41:23,231 Speaker 8: know that he's the first guy there in the morning 890 00:41:23,232 --> 00:41:24,991 Speaker 8: and he's the last guy to leave, so he's working 891 00:41:25,872 --> 00:41:27,991 Speaker 8: more than anyone else is working. So he upholds that 892 00:41:28,071 --> 00:41:30,751 Speaker 8: standard first, so nobody can say anything to him about that. 893 00:41:31,312 --> 00:41:33,872 Speaker 8: And then he really takes care of you like he 894 00:41:34,392 --> 00:41:36,071 Speaker 8: you know, if he says, you know, if you get 895 00:41:36,071 --> 00:41:39,312 Speaker 8: yourself in trouble, come to me first. I don't want 896 00:41:39,352 --> 00:41:41,431 Speaker 8: you to lie. That's that's the big one. Just don't 897 00:41:41,431 --> 00:41:42,992 Speaker 8: lie to me, tell me what happened, and we'll figure 898 00:41:42,991 --> 00:41:47,832 Speaker 8: it out. But you know, his uh, he really took 899 00:41:47,911 --> 00:41:49,551 Speaker 8: care of us. And you realize once you play for 900 00:41:49,631 --> 00:41:52,112 Speaker 8: him that that's why people love him. Things are taken 901 00:41:52,152 --> 00:41:55,792 Speaker 8: care of. You get your opportunities if if, if you 902 00:41:55,872 --> 00:41:58,911 Speaker 8: earn them, and and you don't have to worry about 903 00:41:58,911 --> 00:41:59,832 Speaker 8: anything but playing hockey. 904 00:42:01,511 --> 00:42:03,751 Speaker 6: How often would you get a warning about your facial hair? 905 00:42:03,792 --> 00:42:05,711 Speaker 6: Did he ever tell you hey, like it's it's just 906 00:42:05,792 --> 00:42:07,231 Speaker 6: that you to bring it down a little bit. 907 00:42:08,352 --> 00:42:12,031 Speaker 8: Never got a Warner, never. 908 00:42:10,872 --> 00:42:12,312 Speaker 5: Got pros pro. 909 00:42:12,551 --> 00:42:14,752 Speaker 4: Keep it to the wood, pros pro, keep. 910 00:42:14,631 --> 00:42:17,152 Speaker 8: It to the wood, keep it down to the Randy Wood. 911 00:42:18,511 --> 00:42:19,831 Speaker 5: Cal you were.
