Opinions are our own!
Roscoe:
Alright, so there's a lot of talk about Florida. We're playing Florida, we've been playing Tampa, everything's been about Florida lately. So I want to start with something that is non-hockey but Florida sports related. Steph, you and I were talking about this the other day.
Steph:
Okay.
Roscoe:
The Orlando group proposed a 1.7 billion dollar stadium for baseball in Orlando. And in case you don't follow the MLB, Orlando doesn't have a baseball team. So they are hoping to either lure away the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, as I love to call them, or a new expansion team. So this is something that we don't really see in hockey happen, like building a stadium, I mean, outside of Quebec City. But this is literally like Field of Dreams, like if you build it, they will come. They're just hoping if they build a $1.7 billion field that the team will just come later. And I think that is Very optimistic, but what do you guys think? Will I pull up some pictures of this?
Biehner:
Well, it's not run by Betman anymore, right? So
Roscoe:
Hehehehehehe
Biehner:
there's that going for it. That looks like a pretty intense stadium.
Roscoe:
Yeah, so if you're just if you're watching, you can see here it's all glass on top. So it looks like they'd be able to be open rain or shine while still having a view of the sky, which is pretty cool. All these rendered images, though, are it's hard to tell what it's actually going to look like because this is pretty insane because there's not only glass, but you can see here there's like a screen that wraps all the way around 360 of the field. So that'd be pretty cool. Here's what it looks like from the top. It's like, it looks like there's a big entrance concourse area that's also all glassed in. It looks like a... what shape would you call that to the people listening?
Biehner:
A sperm.
Steph:
penis.
Roscoe:
I was going to say I was going to specifically say what non phallic shape would you call
Steph:
Ha
Roscoe:
this
Steph:
ha ha!
Roscoe:
but it
Steph:
One
Roscoe:
looks.
Steph:
ball and one big cricket day.
Roscoe:
It looks like a baby's arm holding an apple. Thanks for
Steph:
Man,
Roscoe:
watching!
Steph:
this thing, the indoor pics, it looks like West Edmonton Mall went nuts with the MLB, like a cross mixture. And I don't know, it looks so fun. Like the diamond is minuscule compared to the rest of this structure. Like, seems like there's so much going on. And I don't know how the hell they're gonna fit it when Orlando is just a concrete jungle with a shit ton of little ponds and lakes everywhere.
Roscoe:
Well, I'm going to see if we can. It's apparently going to be across from Sea World. So I'm going to see if you can find that that lake that it showed or that weird little.
Steph:
Mm-hmm.
Roscoe:
Let me pull the picture of it. It looks like there's already water around it, unless that's what they would put in. What does it look like is there? It looks like it's beside some residential stuff, so maybe it's going right here.
Steph:
too small.
Roscoe:
Yeah. Oh, it's probably right here.
Steph:
Probably.
Roscoe:
Because it looks like it's in between some industrial stuff and some residential. So it's probably going somewhere in here.
Steph:
Let's look for the empty phallic shape on the map.
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Steph:
Whatever fits. Right?
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
So anyway, I thought that was just kind of an interesting thing to talk about, because there's been so much talk of with the Sens going up for sale and new arenas being built, Calgary's getting approved for a new one, you know, Seattle just got their stadium for their new team, UBS arena got built. I thought it
Biehner:
Tempeh
Roscoe:
was worth talking
Biehner:
vote.
Roscoe:
about. The Tempeh, oh, oh, the Tempeh.
Steph:
Did it happen?
Roscoe:
It's yeah, so update on that if we haven't talked about it in a while. The city of Phoenix is suing Tempe for from what I understand without having it in front of me is that Phoenix was blocked from building something close to an airport because airplanes used to be really loud and they couldn't build things close to them. There was like zoning rules around it and they're approving Tempe building this. close to the airport and they're like, hey, they're not allowed to do that.
Biehner:
Thank you.
Roscoe:
We're suing them for that. And it's like,
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
well, that's not as much a factor anymore because planes are quiet. And if they were approved for the zone and they were approved for the zone, like they're just, it could potentially slow the process down a lot.
Steph:
I thought the civilian
Biehner:
Well, I-
Steph:
vote was later on in the month or the public vote.
Biehner:
Yeah, I think that's not until the 16th or 19th and shout out to Marty, he's been all over this
Steph:
Yeah.
Biehner:
and sharing it online. There's been a lot of backlash.
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
Yeah, I don't know if this is going to go through. We'll see, though. But Bina, you took it off. Well, before we start here, you want to talk about the mask you're wearing there?
Steph:
He left him hanging, man. He was
Biehner:
So
Steph:
ready in his mask.
Biehner:
in honor of Brick Wall, I brought the pop van out of the display cabinet to wear to start the show. But
Steph:
Nice.
Biehner:
my god is it hot in this house with this mask on.
Steph:
Looks good on you. And it's signed, you said, right?
Biehner:
It is, yes.
Steph:
Nice! Wow, the brick wall
Biehner:
So.
Steph:
in comparison to the big cat, right? Tonight, the first rookie since Potvin starting a playoff game. Nice!
Roscoe:
Damn, and guess what? We're still alive, baby!
Steph:
We're still alive!
Roscoe:
All right, one down, three to go. One down, three to go. There was so many mixed emotions over the last couple of days on Twitter. Some people are already talking about who to trade, counting people out, but I gotta commend a very loud majority that did not give up, did not wanna talk about any of this yet. What is this? Young Guns, Joseph Wall, attaboy.
Steph:
Ooh,
Biehner:
autographed.
Roscoe:
Nice.
Steph:
shiny.
Roscoe:
Autographed?
Biehner:
Yes, sir.
Roscoe:
Bro, is that? You should get that PSA graded.
Biehner:
I hate graded cards. I hate the slabs.
Roscoe:
Why?
Biehner:
Because my dad does all that, I do the ungraded. Hahahaha
Roscoe:
But you realize how much that could be worth if it's graded like versus
Biehner:
I'm never
Roscoe:
ungraded
Biehner:
selling it. If it ever gets sold, it's Patrick selling it because he's not as into hockey as I am. That card
Steph:
fair.
Biehner:
will be in my possession till I die, so.
Roscoe:
aww
Steph:
Well, Joseph Wall is sticking around until at least the 24, 25 season. So this guy wants to be in Toronto. He told the media, you know, when he was debating his contract, he didn't even think about it. He loves the city. He loves the people. He wants to be a Leaf. So this is the kind of guy we want on our team.
Roscoe:
Anyway,
Biehner:
for
Roscoe:
here's
Biehner:
less
Roscoe:
Wonderwall.
Biehner:
than league minimum.
Steph:
Yeah.
Biehner:
Um, and, and yeah, 1960 we had Johnny the China Wallbower. And then this year we have number 60, Joseph Brick Wall.
Steph:
Yeah,
Roscoe:
Oh,
Steph:
love it, love
Roscoe:
what
Steph:
it.
Roscoe:
a performance. But as I was saying, though, the the very loud, loud majority, blah, I can't talk now, loud majority on Twitter that was waiting until
Biehner:
Thank
Roscoe:
the
Biehner:
you.
Roscoe:
result of this game to talk about next season, talk about the off season, you know what we're doing with anybody. People were very adamant on holding their ground. And I I got to commend everyone for that. It's not easy. It's not been a fun series. I mean, obviously, the Leafs. Visibly outplayed the Panthers the first two games and were just it seemed defeated in the third third game but tonight man, they really didn't give up and I'm just glad that they for everybody watching we didn't lose this fucking game. I Don't know how I knew this this episode could go one of two ways and they would be drastically different and I was Trying not to think about it. Like I was trying not to prepare for whatever we were going to talk about if they lose, it was just trying to stay positive. We got a couple more games. I got to tell you, I wasn't ready to talk about a four-game sweep.
Steph:
Put the brooms away.
Roscoe:
I was not prepared after we finally get into the first round to talk about a four-game sweep. I don't know. I probably would have put the episode off until tomorrow, to be quite honest.
Steph:
Honestly, I did not wear any makeup before recording because I knew I'd be a crying fucking mess if we have lost. So I quickly threw on some mascara just for the video and I'm like, okay, we're here, we're calm, we won. And the Leafs played very fucking well guys. Like compared to the entire playoffs for the Leafs, I thought tonight was one of the best efforts. We've like the eye test can, I don't know what I've seen anyways. And Finally getting power play opportunities and, oof, keeping together on the shot clock.
Biehner:
That was the Leaf team that we've seen all season. Like that was the team defense. You had multiple, it wasn't just your center man, you had multiple forwards coming back to supporting your defense in their own end, making sure that when it was in your own end, you were doing what you needed to do and covering your ass first before worrying about going forward. Which is what they, like they've been doing, they've been playing. quote-unquote playoff style hockey all season and Then they got away from it against Tampa and they had a lot of bad bounces or they had a lot of lucky bounces Sorry, and then in this series like Bobrowski combined in the four games Has a six point nine two goals saved above expected
Roscoe:
guys
Steph:
Wow.
Roscoe:
on another level.
Biehner:
Like that's insane. That is absolutely insane numbers. So for all these people like chirping, oh, you know, you guys are saying the leafs are getting goalied. Yeah, that's just sore loser, sore loser. No, it's the fucking truth. Yes,
Roscoe:
I'd say outside
Biehner:
they didn't
Roscoe:
of
Biehner:
show
Roscoe:
game
Biehner:
up.
Roscoe:
three, yeah, they've been goalied. Like, even the broadcasters were saying tonight, it should be three nothing, like at the end of the second period there. Or the first.
Steph:
Yeah, this series has been way tighter than it feels. I mean, it was all doom and gloom after game three, but if you break it down, it's not like these scores have been 10-0, guys. And that's why I was kind of, you know, like pushing the positivity train after game three because, hey, there's lots of things to take from this and it's not over yet. One thing that gave me some hope today anyways, Dangle put out a video and he brought up the whole, you know, the Kings did it last in 2014 and all the facts we talked about on our last episode, but he brought up a new stat stating, last time the Leafs lost the playoff game where they were the only team that could be eliminated was back in 2017 against the Washington Caps, game six. And since then, in these types of scenarios, Leafs are 3-0 and now 4-0.
Roscoe:
Yeah, they only lose when they can also close out the series.
Steph:
Yeah, unfortunately, yeah. But man, just lots of good things from tonight. Joseph Wall being the ultimate star. But of course, our core coming through finally and putting shots on net, even Marner ending the first period with four hits, like everyone was mad. Everyone just needed the win and it showed like they were putting bodies on the line. And now we have Bean with another mask on his face looking like You're farting cougars?
Roscoe:
What is this one now?
Steph:
Oh
Biehner:
Johnny China Wallbauer.
Steph:
Love it.
Roscoe:
Nice.
Steph:
Love it. Love it.
Biehner:
He only
Steph:
Signed.
Biehner:
wore a mask for like seven games but.
Roscoe:
Is
Steph:
Love
Roscoe:
that
Steph:
it.
Roscoe:
a game worn mask?
Biehner:
No, oh god no.
Roscoe:
Okay.
Steph:
Love it. Wow.
Roscoe:
But yeah, to go back to what you were mentioning about the core and everybody giving the proper effort tonight, it was, I don't know what happened last game, but it was plastered everywhere, the zero shots from everybody. And Nylander was the only one that looked like he was really giving a shit, even though it still didn't land up on the scoreboard. It was a completely different team tonight. And I'm glad that they are not down and out. Somebody... I'm sorry that I don't remember who it was someone on Twitter said they they passed by a couple of the guys out today in Fort Lauderdale and they just looked in the zone and Matthews was standing off on his own just like getting so fucking ready and You could just
Steph:
Nice.
Roscoe:
tell from the vibe of them like these guys aren't losing tonight, you know I'm just glad that they've come together to win as a team because some of the games that they've won they like This is only the second game in these playoffs that they've won in regulation, right? So it's been a lot of, you know, there's been good play from everybody, but this was the first time where it seemed like, like Biner said, you know, they were playing team defense, team offense, like everybody was working together.
Steph:
Yeah, Joseph Wall took a dip in the ocean, did his meditation on the beach. So
Roscoe:
Amazing.
Steph:
take the, take advantage of the weather guys, like just get some rest. I mean, you had three off days down in Florida. We take it back home where, you know, it's going to be a tough one, but hey, one game at a time, one shift, one period at a time. And that's what we saw tonight. I love to see all the shots, all the hits. Um, everyone just pushed. Like. Even the Leafs made mistakes, yes, but they recovered. They were able to rebound if they lost the puck or something. For example, Hull, I believe in the second period, losing it, and then a big sweep with a stick to knock it away. I don't know, just little things that matter in this type of series.
Roscoe:
Well, honestly...
Biehner:
Darty's ears are burning hearing you chirp all the
Steph:
No, I'm applauding him.
Roscoe:
For how good of a game Marner ended up with, the beginning of the game he was pretty brutal. Like the first five minutes or so he made some pretty bad plays. Like he had a turnover that almost cost him a goal. So it's like you said, everybody was covered and if one person made a mistake, everybody else was in position to be able to make up for it. So yeah, positives.
Steph:
Yeah, it's crazy to think that Matthews, Nylander, JT and Marner have never gone three straight games without scoring a goal in their history of playing together. And of course it happens in round two of the playoffs, Willy,
Roscoe:
Of course.
Steph:
you know, eight games without a goal and all of these streaks just drying up after this performance in round one. But tonight just breaking through from this core, Nylander, Marner. Oh. must feel so good just to get one and move on.
Biehner:
Well that's always the fear right? When you have something like this of haven't made it past first round in so long or haven't made it to the playoffs in so long, you work so hard to get past that first hurdle that typically there's one thing that happens or the other. Either you've expended everything you have and you're done or you're world beaters now and nothing's going to stop you.
Steph:
Definitely. Yeah,
Roscoe:
Yeah,
Steph:
and the pen.
Roscoe:
and
Steph:
Go ahead.
Roscoe:
sorry, what I was going to say is the I think the most evident team defense stat is that through two periods, the Panthers only have 15 shots on goal. And I mean, they've been out shooting or keeping pace with the Leafs through every other game in the series. So the fact that they were able to kind of flip the script on them after the last game where the Panthers were able to neutralize the top scorers on Toronto, they were able to kind of shut down anybody like DeClaire and Bennett and and Kachak tonight.
Steph:
Yeah. I felt this first period though, it was super tight. Leaves had a couple offside unfortunate calls that escaped them on the blue line and you thought they were going to get the play set up and just unlucky bounces, can't clear, get hind in your own zone and even to start the game, the fourth line seemed to be the best line again. And those demons kind of go through your mind and you're like... and then McCabe is partnered with Lily and you're like, how's this going to go? But man, getting that power play opportunity in the second period and connecting on it. I mean, I know it was off the ref's gate and right in front, but I think we're owed one at this point in the playoffs.
Biehner:
You know what? Rightfully so. Like, that should have been a double minor. Like, unless
Roscoe:
you
Biehner:
you're
Roscoe:
mean when
Biehner:
Ron-
Roscoe:
Bunting
Biehner:
unless
Roscoe:
was
Biehner:
you're
Roscoe:
bleeding?
Biehner:
Ron McClane... Yeah. Unless you're Ron McClane, blood is blood. Like, maybe- maybe because he's a vampire at this point in his life, but...
Steph:
Yeah, seriously,
Roscoe:
Ugh.
Steph:
should have been four minutes. He was clearly high stick. Pfizer, I don't know, bud. But hey, off the skate in front, knee lander with the backhand. We'll take it all day long, especially after the Achari ass goal in front.
Roscoe:
Oh yeah. And I love the little scramble there because it just, it throws Bobrowski off because if he's making all these saves on good scoring chances and then this, you know, kind of weird bounce goes off his shoulder and in, it, Abinu, you're looking at the same goal I'm trying not to look at right now.
Biehner:
Yep.
Steph:
Hahaha.
Roscoe:
So, It just throws him off his game because I think he's been able to set up and get in his groove the same way Vasilevsky does where like I was saying, if you can get one early on him, then he kind of gets thrown off. But once he sets up, he's a pain in the ass. Bob's the same way so that it really just opens it up. I know they only got one more on him, but you know, it's not easy to get to on Bobrovsky every night.
Steph:
Well, Panthers apparently have played so perfectly through five periods of play that they were, they didn't grant a power play for the other team. They were, you know, not a dirty team apparently. They go nearly 110 minutes of play without taking a penalty. Like
Roscoe:
Yeah, definitely no interference at all in any of these games.
Biehner:
Okay, I see what you're saying, but game three was such a no-show by a
Roscoe:
Oh
Biehner:
lot
Roscoe:
yeah.
Biehner:
of the big guys by the Leafs. They didn't, like they really didn't warranty drawing a penalty, or warrant drawing a penalty, sorry.
Roscoe:
No, and we talked about that and I get it, but tonight the fact that there were so many things that went uncalled like And that bullshit call on Riley. Come on It's
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
just uh, I don't know
Biehner:
The cross check
Roscoe:
so
Steph:
on
Biehner:
on haul.
Steph:
hall
Roscoe:
Yeah
Steph:
cross-checking kachuk in the
Biehner:
That was
Steph:
first
Biehner:
bad.
Steph:
period? Oh my god, the stick broke. Did it break while he did the motion or beforehand? Like I don't- I couldn't catch the replay
Biehner:
Well, he
Steph:
there.
Biehner:
did the motion but that exact play I bet you happens 400 times in every NHL game That wasn't a cross check that was you put your stick on the guys back and you're trying to push him out of the way The net like that wasn't
Roscoe:
Exactly.
Biehner:
a forceful that wasn't Bennett on You know nice or anybody out front like her sorry. It was bunting. Sorry not nice
Roscoe:
Well,
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
who was it in the Tampa series that was it Sergei Cheva that broke their stick on somebody cross checking them in front of the net when got another stick and then scored and didn't get called for anything like fuck
Steph:
right.
Roscoe:
off.
Steph:
Curtis McElheny actually tweeted tonight saying that that call was super soft. The stick looked broken. The commentators were saying the same thing. And even on the bunting call, everyone on the panel said there was blood. Period. End of story. Blood equals four minutes. Done. But hey, it's the Leafs.
Roscoe:
I had a lot of equipment malfunctions tonight. Some sticks blowing up on clearing attempts and McKay blue's an escape late.
Steph:
Yeah, pogoing his way to the bench and they're on the far side at this point. Damn, that guy was moving fast.
Roscoe:
Yeah, they even made a point, they're like, wow, like people don't normally move that efficiently with an escape light, he really got off there.
Steph:
Yeah.
Biehner:
Which it just helped him that it was the opposite one. Like it was his left skate and he was on the side where he could use his right side to brace against the boards, right?
Roscoe:
Yeah. Oh man. I again, I don't think I ever saw people lose skate blades until like a year or two ago. And now it happens all the time. Like every couple games somebody loses one.
Steph:
I don't know how it happens, but I also don't play high-intensity hockey, so maybe Suthie can tell us.
Roscoe:
it.
Biehner:
The technology
Roscoe:
Go ahead.
Biehner:
is really cool. I clearly don't have skates that nice. But the fact that you can have multiple sets of blades sharp and ready to go, I like my skates really sharp when I'm skating. But I think that's because I don't know what I'm doing. I know someone who will get his skate sharp and then he'll take them to a 2 by 4 for 20 minutes before he puts them on.
Roscoe:
Oh my god.
Steph:
I've heard
Biehner:
and
Steph:
of
Biehner:
then
Steph:
that,
Biehner:
he won't
Steph:
yeah.
Biehner:
get them sharpened again for like a year or two years as long as there's no nicks in them. Like
Roscoe:
Holy.
Biehner:
he hates having an edge. Like it's everybody's personal preference, but if you like them really sharp, these skates are perfect because you start losing an edge, you catch a post or something, go to the bench, the trainer can pop it on and off without you having to unlace your skate and put a whole new one on, right?
Roscoe:
Gotcha.
Steph:
Mm-hmm.
Roscoe:
That makes sense.
Steph:
Yeah, and speaking of penalties, we got to discuss this Brody getting the hold on the stick, but not a Forgutus who takes the late charge at camp and pretty much crushes him on an identical play that got my car suspended. So
Roscoe:
Was McCarr's after the whistle?
Steph:
uh, i'm
Roscoe:
I don't
Steph:
based
Roscoe:
think it
Steph:
off
Roscoe:
was.
Steph:
the silent video that i watched, i'm not too sure, but-
Roscoe:
Based on the
Biehner:
I
Roscoe:
based on the play,
Biehner:
don't
Roscoe:
it doesn't
Biehner:
think it
Roscoe:
look
Biehner:
was after
Roscoe:
like
Biehner:
the
Roscoe:
it.
Biehner:
whistle. No,
Roscoe:
But
Biehner:
I don't think so.
Roscoe:
like, I understand following through with a hit while the whistle goes, but he had so much time. And after the whistle, it's not like he just kept skating into camp. He like. I would I don't want to say he charged, but like, he wasn't looking to see if he left his skates, but like he throws himself into it. Well, camp is. Assuming the play is dead and not bracing himself. Like, I get it. You're playing a sport that's high intensity. You should be ready for a hit like that when you're against the boards. But it's very clear to Goudis that camp is not paying attention and he goes full steam into him throwing his body. That's like intent to injure somebody. That's what I don't like. I get it's a clean hit as far as body checks go. But is it? Like, is that not boarding? Like, where do we make something clean and not clean? Like if it's a dangerous hit that could clearly injure somebody like that, I think it should be called differently.
Biehner:
I agree with you, but at like at this point in time technically That's that's right on the line for boarding for charging whatever you want to call it It doesn't make it right no, it's slimy as all fuck but
Roscoe:
I guess that's all I'm saying. I get that it's clean, I don't like it. That was kind of my response to somebody, because when I said that's extremely dangerous, one of the Leafs Nation accounts said, it's a clean hit. I'm like, I get it's a clean hit and there's not gonna be a call on it, but I don't like a hit on someone who's not paying attention when a play is called dead. It's
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
clearly after the whistle, so players are not holding themselves the same way. It's really just dirty.
Steph:
It was clear that the Panthers were getting pissed. Starting in the first period, around 5-7 minutes of play, a couple missed calls they would maybe predict for the Leafs and the crowd is like, what the hell? And you can just tell that the hits are getting harder and dirtier and more so after whistles. I don't know. I was wondering what would get called at one point. And then we see the Justin Hall call and we're like, really? And then the frickin' bunting thing, fine, fuck it. But then the Brody thing happens and you're like, guys, like, how is it only the Leafs getting the call when there's a fucking scrum with all of our guys on the bottom and Gudis is thinking he's a rhino charging fucking camp into into fucking outer space? I don't get it.
Roscoe:
But for all the bad calls, Alex Kerfoot takes a very unfortunately horrible tripping call that cost the Leafs the goal against there. I get trying to pull the Brody dive here to block stall, but while his leg is over you, you can't stand up and flip him over. Like,
Steph:
Mm.
Roscoe:
you're gonna
Biehner:
You
Roscoe:
get
Biehner:
know
Roscoe:
called
Biehner:
what?
Roscoe:
for that every time.
Biehner:
Realistically, I think you should have stood up about like a quarter of a second sooner, because then it's a body check.
Roscoe:
Exactly, like the way he did it, you're gonna get called for tripping. Like either full on hit him, like get up in time to hit him or stay down.
Biehner:
Like we all know like Neanderthal can't skate anymore.
Roscoe:
Hahaha
Biehner:
Like just
Steph:
Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
Biehner:
get up a little bit sooner and cram them into the boards.
Roscoe:
Oh fuck, Neanderthal.
Biehner:
Yeah
Roscoe:
It's a
Steph:
What does
Roscoe:
good
Steph:
he look
Roscoe:
one.
Steph:
like right now?
Roscoe:
I actually didn't know, I didn't recognize that it was Stahl until they said that it was him. And I was like, holy sh- like the hair and beard is not how I'm used to seeing you. My god.
Steph:
Yeah. And for this goal to go in, man, it trickled through Joseph Wall's legs right before the line and Sam Reinhardt are of course diving in to flick it home. And damn, I was really hoping for a shutout for Joseph Wall, Brick Wall here. But hey, 960 to end the night. No complaints whatsoever, especially with the Leafs up two. But you still had that anxiety pumping through. I don't know.
Biehner:
Is...
Steph:
Me anyway.
Roscoe:
I had to frame
Biehner:
Is
Roscoe:
by
Biehner:
it?
Roscoe:
frame this goal because I wanted to see how it actually went in because there was a scramble and everybody went on it. In the replay, it looks like Wall reaches for it as Justin Hall goes to try to swipe it out and misses. And he just hits Wall's glove away from the puck. That was my immediate reaction. I'm like, oh my God, did Hall just stop him from saving that?
Steph:
Mmm.
Roscoe:
But then when I froze the frame and zoomed in, it's like there's a trio. It's Reinhardt's stick on the puck. and then Hall's stick right behind it and then Wall's glove. So even if Hall hadn't put a stick there, Reinhardt beat them to the puck. So you are free on this one and Dardee can breathe. Oh my God, the Oilers just
Biehner:
I'm gonna
Roscoe:
scored
Biehner:
go to bed.
Roscoe:
again. Poor
Steph:
What's the score?
Roscoe:
Aiden Hill. Is it three
Biehner:
nothing
Roscoe:
or four nothing now?
Biehner:
oh it
Steph:
Oof.
Biehner:
was three nothing for me but you're watching on actual cable so it's probably like 10 nothing
Roscoe:
Oh god. They're just slaughtering Aidenhill. It's not even fair. Eckholm.
Biehner:
Like, as much as I do love Wall, and like I've talked about him before the season with Marty on his podcast, like if the kid can stay healthy, he's got a bright future ahead of him. But maybe it's actually better that he didn't get a shutout. Can you imagine the media
Roscoe:
Ugh.
Biehner:
hyping him up? Like that would be the only time Toronto media would ever hype up a Leaf player.
Roscoe:
brick wall keeps the Leafs alive.
Biehner:
Yeah, shuts out the Panthers, what are they gonna do? And then the story's on him, and if he lets one goal in, it's all, he's garbage, send him back. Like,
Roscoe:
He gets
Biehner:
the
Roscoe:
a
Biehner:
media
Roscoe:
shutout,
Biehner:
and...
Roscoe:
Sammy gets healthy, and it's like, nah, fuck that, we're playing wall every game, baby.
Biehner:
Hahaha
Steph:
I don't know who's worse, the media or half of Leafs Nation after game 3? Like, man, you guys didn't really help yourselves at one point. It was kind of embarrassing counting out the Leafs immediately when game 4 didn't even happen yet. So I'm glad we got the win tonight and this type of effort just shows, man. Like they were saying this isn't a different team after all. Yes, it is. This team is still different, man. Like, I do not want to think about the off season and breaking up this roster, because I truly believe this roster can go all the way.
Biehner:
Leafs forever, not Leafs when they win.
Roscoe:
Yeah, maybe. Speaking of, Camp and Lafferty had another good game tonight, but the difference was everybody supported them. That's kind of the difference between between last game and this one. Camp Lafferty and Camp played well, but this time everyone else did.
Steph:
And this time JT had five shots on net, Willie had four, Matthew's four, Marner three. You know, Willie finally sinking one after taking 34 and not going in, holy
Roscoe:
which is
Steph:
shit.
Roscoe:
a.03 shooting percentage, by the way.
Biehner:
Now guys, I thought everybody and their brother on Twitter said JT's too slow for this game anymore. He not capped the material. He's out there blocking shots. You know, just accidentally on purpose falling into the goaltender. He's getting a
Roscoe:
I
Biehner:
breakaway.
Roscoe:
was gonna
Steph:
Hahaha!
Roscoe:
say,
Biehner:
He's
Roscoe:
crashing
Biehner:
cutting
Roscoe:
the
Biehner:
to
Roscoe:
net.
Biehner:
the net. Like.
Steph:
Taking one for the team.
Roscoe:
Hell yeah.
Steph:
Yeah, guess who has the highest amount of shot blocks among four words?
Roscoe:
Matthews.
Steph:
Yes, tied with...
Roscoe:
forwards?
Steph:
Yes.
Biehner:
Sorry.
Steph:
Yes! Good! Yeah,
Roscoe:
Nice.
Steph:
the D actually, they only maxed out at two a piece, but yeah, Acharya and Matthews with three a piece tonight and...
Roscoe:
Mitch with foreheads too.
Steph:
Yeah, yeah, man.
Biehner:
He was throwing all 100 pounds around tonight.
Roscoe:
Oh yeah man.
Steph:
arms straight out bouncing off the wall like a little ping pong ball.
Roscoe:
You know what? He probably catches some people off guard because there's no way when he's coming at you that you think he's going to follow through with the hit.
Steph:
Right?
Roscoe:
Like you might as well just be, oh, he's going to go, oh shit. And then this like, I mean, at any speed, it's still, what is he? 120 pounds? Like.
Steph:
Hey,
Biehner:
Yeah,
Steph:
you gained
Biehner:
I don't
Steph:
like
Biehner:
know.
Steph:
12 in the offseason, remember? Sorry.
Biehner:
I don't know like actually how much he weighs but considering like it's pretty much entirely muscle it would hit hit a little different than than me.
Roscoe:
You're 181 pounds.
Biehner:
pure
Steph:
all
Biehner:
muscle.
Steph:
bony elbow.
Roscoe:
That is...
Steph:
Straight to the gut.
Roscoe:
Okay, how tall is he?
Steph:
6'1".
Biehner:
Ha ha ha.
Steph:
He grew too in the offseason. He used to be 6 foot or 5'11".
Roscoe:
Oh my god, stop doing everything in meters and kilograms. I don't know, I'm in Canada. That's not how I measure people. That's how I measure other things.
Steph:
Yeah, oh he's six
Roscoe:
Uh,
Steph:
foot.
Roscoe:
yeah, he's exactly six foot. So six feet, 181 pounds. That is still a train coming at you at whatever speed this guy goes. I don't care. It's a small car.
Steph:
Just had a birthday five days ago. Happy birthday Mitch Marner, 26 years old now. Man, I don't know. I think these guys, even though the last three games have been to the eye, but it's been a lot closer. They can do it. I believe guys, like, I don't know. I'm staying positive here. Lots of good things to take away tonight.
Biehner:
I was all over Twitter after, even after the last game. Like, we're coming back, we're making this a series.
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
Yep. Do we think they're just going to ride with Ravsky every game? Do we think we see Alex Lyon?
Biehner:
I don't think we see, unless Bob lays an egg, I don't think we see a lion.
Steph:
Agreed. Do you guys
Roscoe:
Anyway.
Steph:
want to go to question?
Biehner:
You were playing with a loaded deck trying to gamble and use Lion for the whole series, or for the whole playoffs.
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Biehner:
The fact that he got you as far as he did and started the playoffs, it worked clearly, but it wasn't going to be endgame.
Roscoe:
Before we go to questions, there's one more thing I want to commend the Leafs on tonight and that's backing each other up After we saw Bennett choke slam Matthew Nyes the biggest complaint and I have to agree with this is that nobody Answered the call. No one went after Bennett and said don't you can't do that like it just kind of it was that was it the play went dead and went to the you know, the next play but Tonight, whenever anything happened, the entire team jumped into the scrum. There was the fight at the end of the game there where everybody was defending each other. You know, there was the one after Gudis slammed on camp, you know, there was a whole scrum that broke out, like everybody was involved and backing each other up. And that was really a good note to kind of tip off playing as a team, you know?
Steph:
Agreed.
Biehner:
It definitely was.
Steph:
McCabe going to Riley's rescue at the end there. I don't know what the rest were doing, man. Marner was getting mauled by Kachak and talking face to face with the ref like, see, do you not see this? I'm about to be choked by a stick and everyone just kind of waiting and watching, well, the officials anyway. But it's nice to see the compete and the fight. When I see pics of Jake McCabe even walking into the arena. This guy looks like so prepared like he's Muzzin 2.0 but even meaner and the guy's fucking jacked like he's ripped guys like in his most recent pics. He looks like Inval underneath
Roscoe:
Speaking of Muzzin, I love that he's still traveling and hanging out with the team through all of this. Back
Steph:
Oh
Roscoe:
to
Steph:
hell
Roscoe:
that
Steph:
yeah.
Roscoe:
report that somebody saw them all out for breakfast. Apparently it was Muzzin with a couple of the guys, so... I'm glad he's still there.
Steph:
Well, he was a part of the team that came back 3-0 2014. So
Roscoe:
Oh shit, true.
Steph:
if he can provide anything right now, it's that off ice mentality to get prepared and get these guys in it. And, you know, any way possible that he can be handy off the ice, you might as well.
Roscoe:
I'm just picturing Keith walking into some hotel room and the whole team is in there like doing some seance that Muzzin's leading. He's like,
Steph:
Yeah
Roscoe:
what is going on? No, you leave. This is how we do it. This is how it works. Don't question the process.
Steph:
No
Roscoe:
Who's done this before? Me.
Steph:
Yes, yes, man.
Biehner:
Like,
Roscoe:
Okay, we got
Biehner:
can
Roscoe:
a ton
Biehner:
we
Roscoe:
of
Biehner:
touch
Roscoe:
them.
Biehner:
on,
Roscoe:
Oh, go.
Biehner:
quickly before that, can we touch on how much BS it was that Ron McLean was so sure the Leafs were gonna lose, and so sure that as soon as they lost, everyone was getting fired, that he brought a fucking bag of props to give to Elliot Friedman?
Roscoe:
Wait,
Steph:
I
Roscoe:
what?
Steph:
miss that.
Biehner:
It was some reference like a steak knife for one thing and the other one he never ended up opening and then the third thing was supposed to be you get fired and Then McLean made a comment about how you know, well, that's that's what happens after tonight. It's like Dude, go back
Steph:
mmm
Biehner:
to your rocking chair
Roscoe:
Yeah, and he also made a comment that tomorrow would be the first opportunity a team has to close out a series this round. It's like, what about tonight, Ron?
Steph:
Oh my god. I don't know man. I just my head shakes especially when Kelly speaks as well, and I'm just like oh my god stop talking
Roscoe:
He's something else. Anyway, we've
Biehner:
Think
Roscoe:
got
Biehner:
of the
Roscoe:
a shit
Biehner:
God Dallas
Roscoe:
ton of questions.
Biehner:
Eagans.
Steph:
Yeah Well he doesn't support drawing penalties.
Biehner:
He's just
Steph:
Hehehe
Biehner:
bitter that he couldn't last with the Leafs.
Roscoe:
Alright, what do we got, Steph?
Steph:
Yeah. Um, we have a lot of questions. So Chris Rickett asks, why is Keith
Roscoe:
Isn't it
Steph:
so
Roscoe:
richet?
Steph:
rich? I don't forget. I'm sorry, Chris. Message me how to how to pronounce your last name. Kind of like how Beener had to when we first met him and we were like, Ben, Ben, I
Roscoe:
BEAN
Steph:
don't know.
Biehner:
But the best is still, I had a teacher that said benign. It's like
Steph:
BANA
Biehner:
you added a whole extra letter.
Steph:
Ha ha
Roscoe:
Added
Steph:
ha!
Roscoe:
a couple.
Steph:
He asks, why is Keith so against mixing up the lines splitting up Marner and Matthews? He seems scared to do it.
Biehner:
He's okay. He's not against it. Sorry, Johnny.
Steph:
Mm.
Biehner:
He's not against it. And then if you're down in a game, what do you do? You put your best players out there. If Jay Woodcroft down in a game, what does he do? He puts McDavid and Drysaddle out there. Like I can't get over the fact that people are trying to piss on him for that. Like the entire Tampa series, the whole team played kind of poorly, but the big boys stepped up. and we got some lucky bounces and we got through it. This series we've been playing really well and just haven't had the bounces and we've been getting goalied. Like, yes, okay. Everybody's looking at game three like it's the entire playoffs. It was a shitty game. It was a shitty feeling to watch what happened. But that doesn't mean that's the entire story. Like, give it a rest. Sorry.
Roscoe:
No, I mean, basically, just to build off that, like Matthews and Marner are the best together when they are both at their best. And against Florida, you have more of an opportunity than you had against Tampa to kind of massage the matchups and hope that you can get Matthews and Marner out there against maybe a line that they can get an opportunity, maybe against like Stahl and them on the fourth. So I think it, he's not against changing the lines. I mean, he switched the defensive lines up tonight when they weren't. right? So I think it just makes sense not to split up Matthews and Marner at this point because if they can get it to work it is the best version of the team, right? Like by splitting them up if they find success it's still not the the best version of this team because you're putting other people in a tougher position where they have to adjust to it so to have everybody in the place where they have thrived you have to keep that together.
Steph:
After game three, Twitter was filled with people suggesting, Matthew's and Marner for B'Dard. Get rid of Marner for a bunch of picks. Get rid of Marner for Travis Konekne. Like, what the fuck,
Roscoe:
Get out of
Steph:
guys?
Roscoe:
here.
Steph:
So, Keith actually answered this question in media interview today or yesterday, and he said, when you get into a game like this, you look at the big samples. Our team has been the best. Our lines have been the best when it's Matthews, Marner, and Jarncrok. That's the best line we've had all season. And he's not wrong. And I mean, yeah, they didn't play up to their full capability. It seemed during game three and everyone just crucified fucking Marner. Right. But guys, the chances have been there. They're trying. Like you said, Bean, it was like a stalemate. It seemed no power play opportunities, just getting blocked left, right in center. Tonight was a way better showing. So next question.
Roscoe:
Actually speaking of that because I know there's no questions about it and we didn't talk about it Chicago Blackhawks Get the number one pick in the draft
Steph:
Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Roscoe:
They're gonna get mr. Connor bedard and um
Biehner:
it's okay to hide sexual assault but it's not okay to sign a player to a large contract and it's not okay to let draft picks train at your facilities.
Roscoe:
I just,
Steph:
Right.
Roscoe:
it feels gross. Like I wanted Anaheim to get this so bad. And that's not just because the
Biehner:
San Jose.
Roscoe:
later rivals pod is, you know, friends. I just wanted them to have that. San Jose would have been fun, but like, as far as odds go, it was most likely going to go to Anaheim. They've never had a first overall pick. And it, everybody's crying conspiracy because look, the Blackhawks are at the end of one era. They're a bigger market. Canine tapes are gone. There's, you know, not the best PR around the team. So let's give them a huge distraction. Like, I don't like this.
Biehner:
There is no way, like I am all for ripping on Petman. We've established that in previous episodes many, many times. There
Steph:
Who
Biehner:
is
Steph:
doesn't like
Biehner:
no,
Steph:
it?
Biehner:
like there's no way that this was rigged. If this was rigged, he would have definitely gone to Anaheim or not Anaheim, Arizona. Like, really, it's the 05 draft all over again with Crosby. Like, there was rumors Pittsburgh was leaving. Crosby goes there, they get a new arena, and now they're one of the model franchises over the last 20 years.
Steph:
I was just gonna
Roscoe:
I just
Steph:
say.
Roscoe:
don't like it. It
Biehner:
No,
Steph:
Ducks
Roscoe:
stinks.
Biehner:
I didn't.
Steph:
miss-o.
Roscoe:
I tells you it stinks.
Steph:
Yeah.
Biehner:
It definitely does, but there's been so many opportunities for a more beneficial rigging than this. Like if the Blackhawks didn't get bedard, it's not like they're gonna go anywhere. They've been, they're coming up on their 100th year anniversary. The Blackhawks aren't leaving.
Roscoe:
No, but I think the ticket sales have not been great while they've been bad. And within what was it an hour and a half of them getting the first overall pick, they were selling insane amounts of season tickets. Like that's
Biehner:
Betman
Roscoe:
a
Biehner:
clearly
Roscoe:
huge
Biehner:
doesn't
Roscoe:
difference
Biehner:
care
Roscoe:
for a team.
Biehner:
about ticket sales.
Roscoe:
No, but
Biehner:
You have Arizona
Roscoe:
that's...
Biehner:
in a 5,000
Roscoe:
Betman
Biehner:
seat arena.
Roscoe:
works... Betman works for the owners and one of the owners with the most power is the Wurtz family. Like if they tell him, hey fuckface, our team sucks right now and both of our stars are leaving and we're our fucking owners bungled this team ten years ago, and now we're paying for it, fix it.
Biehner:
Maybe
Roscoe:
Like
Biehner:
don't
Roscoe:
he
Biehner:
cover
Roscoe:
works
Biehner:
up sexual
Roscoe:
for them.
Biehner:
assault.
Roscoe:
I'm exactly right. But
Steph:
Mm.
Roscoe:
I'm saying the Blackhawks are in a position where they're one of the biggest, oldest franchises, most important franchises in the league and they're in a really shitty situation and they just get to go, hey, throw us a bone here, Gary. Like I'm not saying this is what happened. I'm just saying like the fact that this is the situation, it's like because we won't know if it is or not. There's just way too much that makes it, it just stinks, that's it.
Biehner:
Like, I see where you're going and I definitely do not like... Full disclosure, the Blackhawks have always been my Western team. I had a family friend who played for them in the 60s and 70s. Like, I've always loved the Blackhawks. So everything that's gone on over the last couple of years has been absolutely disgusting. And it's, it's really dampened the way I view a lot of the players that were involved. Like even though... Taves and Kane didn't do the issue in question. Like, the chances of them not knowing at all are pretty slim.
Roscoe:
Exactly.
Biehner:
Like it's, and then with regards to the conspiracy theorists out there with the draft, if they were that worried about Chicago, they would have rigged an earlier draft in the early thousands when they were barely selling any tickets whatsoever. Like there's so many other teams that would have benefited more from getting Bedard than Chicago. Because San Jose,
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Biehner:
if they go, if San Jose goes in a shitter, they do have good fans, but you're not going to be able to consistently sell a ton of tickets in an arena in California if they're not playing well.
Roscoe:
But my point is Chicago had the second highest chance, so it's the least one that you're gonna question. And again, the power of the Worth family, because the way that the board works of these owners is the longer standing owners have more power and Betman works directly for them. So I'm not sure how long San Jose's ownership group has been there, but even if it's been since the beginning, there's a lot that have been there longer. So that's it. The other thing is that Betman comes out and says, teams don't tank. And the Blackhawks go out and get Peter Morazzic as their starting goalie for the entire season, pull off literally a textbook tank. Like any professional sports team can look at this, not just the NHL, any professional sports team that wants the best franchise overall pick that's coming. Look at what the Blackhawks did this year, that's how you lose. And they get the, like, are you joking? How can you say teams don't tank and then give the team that tried the hardest to tank the first pick?
Steph:
That's not right. Fuck the black hawks. Fuck the black hawks. Fuck
Roscoe:
And
Steph:
the
Roscoe:
it
Steph:
black
Roscoe:
didn't
Steph:
hawks.
Roscoe:
go to Montreal. That's like whatever. Great.
Steph:
I don't know,
Roscoe:
Is in
Steph:
ducks
Roscoe:
the West.
Steph:
got chipped.
Roscoe:
You know what? Most of the this top five are all so fucking good. I'm glad only one of them is going to the East.
Steph:
And can we talk about the broadcast screwing up the reveal like right before commercial they leaked the answers and
Roscoe:
That
Steph:
then
Roscoe:
broadcast
Steph:
they came back.
Roscoe:
was a joke.
Steph:
Yeah and we already
Roscoe:
Half
Steph:
knew.
Roscoe:
an hour long, starting with Elliot Friedman saying this is the most important date on the hockey calendar outside of the Stanley Cup. It's like, really? Because you guys just let Kevin Weeks read a teleprompter for 20 minutes and that was the whole thing. And they cut to the GM sitting there, basically like we are on Zoom, but not saying anything.
Steph:
I'm
Roscoe:
It's
Steph:
going
Roscoe:
just
Steph:
to go to
Roscoe:
like,
Steph:
bed. Bye.
Roscoe:
oh, and with the 16th pick, and then it's just... GM with no reaction because they're like, I don't give a shit. I didn't get badarred. Like,
Steph:
It was
Roscoe:
I don't care.
Steph:
worse than like COVID times and trying to replicate, I don't know, the same sense of hockey community when we had so many restrictions. It was back to, you know, blank faces like you said. I don't know, the reactions were funny, the blank faces. I just thought it was a joke, like flipping those cards and revealing once again. We're like, damn, this was quick though. At least it didn't elongate like three hours.
Roscoe:
I'm not saying they should do a three hour production, but like, why don't they go like pick they were in New Jersey, I think for doing this. Why wouldn't they go to whatever I guess they can't because the devils are playing but go to some arena of a team that's out of the playoffs. Have it like $5 entry like they do for the draft and just let fans come in and cheer on like for their team to get different picks, like put it in a central ish location and just let people come in and make it like an hour and a half thing have. players that are out of the playoffs come in or like, you know, players that could get drafted, make an appearance, you know, there's different ways to make it a little more exciting than it currently is because that was quite the boring event considering how much hype was around it. And like how influential it's going to be for a lot of teams for the next 20 to 40 years based on the trades that come out of these players at the end of their contracts. Like these, you know, we're still seeing. players involved from Gretzky's trade moved around. Like that trade tree's not done. These are gonna change these franchises, whether it's, you know, Bedard or Mitchelov or Fantilly, or who are the others in the top five there? I can't remember now. There's one that
Biehner:
Carlson.
Roscoe:
jumped up in the last, one that jumped up in the last little bit, yeah. Anyway. (*static*)
Steph:
Shane Wright 2.0, anyone?
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Biehner:
I just,
Steph:
Imagine?
Biehner:
it's not gonna happen, but I would really, really love it if Badard pulled a Lindrass.
Steph:
Hehehe be funny.
Roscoe:
Oh man,
Biehner:
That
Roscoe:
too
Biehner:
would be
Roscoe:
many
Biehner:
incredible.
Roscoe:
people putting that pressure on him. All right, we gotta get back to questions, I apologize. We need to talk about BDART, obviously.
Steph:
Uh, Phil Wilds on Twitter asks, Wal, if Samsonov is healthy for game five and also Misadventures second round big cat hunting at classy Kyle's also asked the same. Do you start? Who do you start for game five, Wal or Sammy?
Roscoe:
I would say wall because there's no way Sammy is completely healthy. Like he wasn't healthy in game two and he tweaked it worse in game three. There's no way after a couple of days, this guy's like back to a hundred percent. If wall
Biehner:
He didn't even practice.
Roscoe:
is. Yeah. Like if walls at even 90%, I would take that over Sammy being at 60. Like there's no way he's higher than 60 or 65% right now.
Steph:
Yep, the rest of the schedule. Oh, go ahead, Bean.
Biehner:
No, sorry, I was just gonna say, in my opinion, Wall plays the rest of the games unless he gets hurt.
Roscoe:
Yeah.
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
Shout
Steph:
And the
Roscoe:
out
Steph:
rest
Roscoe:
to Dennis
Steph:
of this...
Roscoe:
Hillby for backing up tonight.
Steph:
Yeah. And it was kind of weird but nice seeing Matt Murray, you know, on the bench there first time since April 2nd getting into a game. So almost forgot what he looked like for a minute. But yeah, Dennis Hildeby, Hildebeast, emergency e-bug. Wow. It's nice to see a name called up after he was drafted last off season. But I totally agree with you guys, especially the schedule right now. It's every other day, the rest of the second round. We've had our two, three day breaks and now it's the grind. It's just push, push, push. And if Sammy didn't practice, then no, he's not in.
Roscoe:
Yeah, if anybody was wondering, it's because of F1 and I think the Miami Heat. These games were so spread apart. So
Steph:
And the
Roscoe:
a good thing the
Steph:
horses.
Roscoe:
Raptors suck. That's what I got real complicated.
Steph:
Mike the Fanatic asks, the Leafs absolutely have to play Wonderwall at the halfway mark in the third period on Friday, right? Has to become a in-rink anthem like Mr. Brightside was for the Avs last year, no?
Roscoe:
I mean, that's a really good one to have the whole crowd singing because people know the words to it and you can stop the song and people will keep it going. And it's a meme song. Like everybody on the other team would just be like, oh my God, like, please stop. It's so distracting. Like if the Leafs get used to it happening and the other team is like, oh my God, fuck off. No. That's
Steph:
Oh,
Roscoe:
a great
Steph:
it has to
Roscoe:
one.
Steph:
happen. It has to happen. It's just as good as like sweet Caroline, you know, singing
Roscoe:
It's
Steph:
that
Roscoe:
better.
Steph:
in a crowd.
Roscoe:
Sweet Caroline is the worst.
Steph:
But it's such a good crowd song, but.
Roscoe:
No, it's not. Just because people do it doesn't mean it's good.
Biehner:
Ha ha!
Steph:
A comment from Benito the Basset Hound, I believe, so do I. And my reflection says, are you in? We never left.
Roscoe:
Ah, we in, baby.
Steph:
Also, we have Holly Toronto, how deep should Bennett and Gudis' graves be? Six feet or
Roscoe:
I
Steph:
Roscoe:
saw
Steph:
feet?
Roscoe:
this. I saw this one.
Steph:
Lot of replies to this as well.
Roscoe:
Yeah, I love it.
Steph:
Man, let me see. I'm going to try and get the replies up here for one sec, but six feet or 10 feet, guys.
Roscoe:
I don't know, can you do that one where you stack them? Does that have to be 10?
Steph:
George Koufis says 10 feet with Concrete poured in after.
Roscoe:
Oh man, no, I'm not gonna, that's, let's call it some wishing for some, some fines and some disciplinary action, but it's not gonna happen.
Steph:
Yeah.
Biehner:
I definitely won't.
Steph:
Pat Rogers says, Titanic depth with concrete shoes.
Roscoe:
Man, fuck, like, this is, it just comes back to what I said before. Anytime people do anything with intent to injure, it's like... It's beyond sportsman-like and getting into the game and emotions. It's just, it's something else taking over and unless they're going to start actually punishing people for that, and even if the hit is clean, like, you have to look at the context of, like, is the person... taking advantage of someone not paying attention and trying to injure them, then we have to look at it differently. If you wanna take these kinds of things out of the game, you have to start drawing some lines between what's what. So that's
Steph:
Lucas
Roscoe:
it.
Steph:
Haynesworth says, Was my trip to New Zealand the reason for the three game slump?
Roscoe:
You changed something in the middle of the playoffs You
Biehner:
Absolutely.
Roscoe:
did something different. I cut my hair. I can't I can't talk. I literally got a haircut yesterday
Biehner:
Those Kiwis do not like the leaves. I don't know.
Steph:
David Elliott asks, are you going to talk to Mitch? Ask him where the hell the effort was in the first three games.
Roscoe:
I'm gonna text him, see if he gets back to me.
Steph:
Text him Johnny, yeah, text him. Let us know what he says. Julian Aubrey asks, Simmons dresses for game five? Think yes, give them something different to think about as being size.
Biehner:
Please stop with the Simmons thing. Like, my
Roscoe:
We're not
Biehner:
dear
Roscoe:
doing this.
Biehner:
God.
Roscoe:
Is this what the sends felt like with Chris Neal? Is this what the Sens fans went through when it was like every 25 games, this guy comes in and it's like a fan welcome, but then eventually it's like, why are we playing Chris Neil anymore? Because
Biehner:
Good
Roscoe:
he
Biehner:
luck
Roscoe:
just
Biehner:
finding
Roscoe:
comes in to fight
Biehner:
one
Roscoe:
people.
Biehner:
of them.
Steph:
He also
Roscoe:
Ugh.
Steph:
says, Wall is showing that he's an NHL starter next year. Sammy, great, but if he wants too much with the cap only going up by 1 million, in Wall, we are okay.
Roscoe:
And while we are okay... Look, the team's gonna be a lot different next year. I'm... Hesitant. But if it's wall with... At the price he's currently at with Murray as the backup, like, until that runs out, like, fucking why not?
Steph:
Yeah. And lastly, he said, a last comment, where has all the effort been around all round two? Panthers reaction at the end. This series is turned. I really hope so. I really,
Roscoe:
Oh,
Steph:
really
Roscoe:
I better
Steph:
do
Roscoe:
be.
Steph:
hope so. Our friend Mikey D just comments, I'm way too fucked up to think of a question, but love you guys. Leafs in seven. Let's fucking go.
Biehner:
Hahaha!
Roscoe:
Did you see the new ones we got in from LeafBlue16 here?
Steph:
No, I did not.
Roscoe:
Okay, so these are this is a two parter. So should Bennett get suspended for hitting McCabe in the head a good five seconds after the game ended? I cannot believe the Department of Player Safety will ignore that, but it feels like they will after what feels like that's what will happen. Yeah, they're not going to do anything. The partner player safety has basically just decided the playoffs are cool and fine. Second part of the question, Goudis is UFA after the season. He hits hard and clean, and I hate it when the Leafs
Biehner:
No.
Roscoe:
play against him. He's 32, but feels
Biehner:
No.
Roscoe:
like a good experience and tough player. That would be great on the Leafs for a two and a half ish million dollar contract. What he made this season, maybe three years at two and a half.
Steph:
Only in fantasy.
Roscoe:
You wouldn't take Radco Gyrtas?
Biehner:
Absolutely not. MikeComisare 2.0.
Steph:
It just reminds me of the video.
Roscoe:
I don't know if I'd call them commiseric 2.0.
Biehner:
Not
Steph:
Ah.
Biehner:
exactly, but that was the first name I could think of of Leaf's bad defenseman that wasn't offensive.
Steph:
the video I think I sent it to you Roscoe the other day where the ref goes up to him and he's like I don't like it when you sit on people you can't do that they're not chairs
Biehner:
Furthermore,
Roscoe:
Okay.
Biehner:
we've seen with Bunting, if it's a Leaf player doing something, they're gonna get a call more than if that player was on another team. And this isn't me being a
Roscoe:
Now I know.
Biehner:
salty Leaf fan, like it's reality.
Roscoe:
So, you're saying, let me just pose the question to you. A 32 year old Radco Gudis for two and a half or a 32 year old Justin Hall for two and a half?
Biehner:
before fifth season.
Steph:
McCabe for two.
Biehner:
Ha ha ha!
Roscoe:
We already have McCabe though.
Steph:
Yeah, that.
Roscoe:
But I'm saying Hall's contract is up at the end of the season, he's also a UFA. So if I'm not saying we have to pick one or the other, but in this scenario, who would you rather have on the team for the same price?
Biehner:
If
Roscoe:
Because
Biehner:
I'm
Roscoe:
they're
Biehner:
picking
Roscoe:
basically
Biehner:
one of those
Roscoe:
this.
Biehner:
two, I guess I would pick Gudis, but... I would rather re-sign Shen.
Steph:
as good as it gets.
Roscoe:
Also, fair. If we're throwing Shen in the mix, I would take Shen over the other ones. But I think you can probably get Shen at less than that money.
Steph:
Yes, I totally agree.
Roscoe:
Isn't he on like almost a league min as it is?
Steph:
Yeah, advertised as how much? Like three million dollar player or whatever the agent wanted at the time.
Roscoe:
So I mean, if you still have the space to add a two and a half million dollar defenseman, like, I mean, I don't hate the idea. I don't think though, with the guys that they've added, you need it. But like. I don't know. I don't I don't dislike the idea of adding Gertis. Like we've talked about it before at the towards the deadline because it was a UFA, but it was because Florida was kind of on the edge of making it or not.
Steph:
Hmm.
Roscoe:
Anyway, thanks for that question.
Steph:
Got
Roscoe:
Do
Steph:
it?
Roscoe:
we want to do a start one bench one cut one? Or did you have any hockey stuff you want to fill in before?
Biehner:
Um, we've got the Leafs ECHL team, the Newfoundland Growlers up three nothing
Roscoe:
Hey,
Biehner:
in round two.
Roscoe:
are they at
Biehner:
Again,
Roscoe:
home?
Biehner:
they're back at home Thursday tomorrow.
Roscoe:
Ooh, maybe I'll go tomorrow.
Biehner:
Yeah.
Steph:
Yeah.
Roscoe:
There's the bar that my company here has kind of claimed as their home base is like, there's a walkway attached that goes over the street to the Growler Stadium across the road, the Mary Brown
Steph:
Nice.
Roscoe:
Center. And it's like the official home of the Growlers. And there's like a shit ton of TVs and stuff. That's
Steph:
Damn.
Roscoe:
pretty cool. It used to be like a general store or a bakery or something back in the day. But yeah, it's a cool little pub and it's the Growlers place.
Steph:
Nice.
Biehner:
So right now,
Roscoe:
The
Biehner:
Dryden
Roscoe:
Newfoundland
Biehner:
McKay.
Roscoe:
embassy shout out.
Biehner:
Right now Dryden McKay for the Growlers is 7-0 with a 928 save percentage and two shutouts in the playoffs so far.
Roscoe:
Oof!
Steph:
Oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof oof o
Roscoe:
Ah! Ah! That's gross.
Biehner:
And
Steph:
That's hot.
Biehner:
the Marleys, the Marleys are starting the North Division final tomorrow as well against the Rochester Americans.
Roscoe:
Mmm.
Steph:
Yay! Damn, Ritrunal team's moving on up! Also, Morgan Reilly nominated for the King Clancy Memorial Trophy Leadership on and off the ice. I think
Roscoe:
noise.
Steph:
that's a good pick, especially with his play throughout this playoffs in general and a couple clutch goals and you know, longest tenored leaf. He has to be angry. He wants to win. So yeah, it's definitely being shown this year for sure.
Roscoe:
Okay, so we're gonna finish off with start one, bench one, cut one. We've been doing movies lately, so I'm gonna do movie snacks. This is movie theater snacks. So start one, bench one, cut one. We got popcorn. We got candy. We'll just make it like candy in general because it's usually M&Ms or nibs or whatever. Or nachos.
Steph:
Oh.
Roscoe:
Go.
Steph:
Oh.
Biehner:
Popcorn, candy, and nachos, easy.
Roscoe:
It really... That's... Fair. What candy do you pick?
Biehner:
When I was younger it was always Reese cups, but now it's either gummy bears or gummy worms or whatever they have gummy wise.
Roscoe:
Oh, you're a gummy guy. See, I always go nibs or what I'll do is get the peanut M&Ms and you dump it in the popcorn. You get a little mix of both. It's a nice sweet and salty.
Biehner:
Although shout
Steph:
Mm-hmm.
Biehner:
out to one of our friends, Becca, like I have seen her sneak an extra large double double in her purse into a movie theater.
Roscoe:
What the f- how?
Steph:
Hehehehehe
Biehner:
Right? Without spilling it. Like, so the Brantford movie theater that we used to go, like when it was still in the Brantford mall way back when there was a bulk barn,
Roscoe:
I was just going to say we had a bulk barn in
Biehner:
right
Roscoe:
ours
Biehner:
across
Roscoe:
too.
Biehner:
from it. So like. I'd always wear cargo shorts and you know you filled each of the pockets with whatever you wanted and then you go in but I swear to God she'd snuck in a coffee in her purse and didn't spill any of it.
Roscoe:
That's insane. Bravo.
Steph:
Well, I've definitely
Biehner:
Right?
Steph:
taken a few Mickeys in the
Biehner:
Hahaha
Steph:
air back in my day, but yeah, candy all the way from Bulk Barn, guys, you're absolutely on it, to who the fuck buys anything at the movie theaters. Well,
Roscoe:
Uh,
Steph:
I guess
Roscoe:
me,
Steph:
now
Roscoe:
because
Steph:
I do.
Roscoe:
scene points.
Steph:
True.
Roscoe:
All scene points, all day.
Steph:
Yeah, fair. But me, you gotta start popcorn. You gotta get that extra shit on it. You have to layer that shit in. It doesn't even have to be the paid buttery shit, just the free shit on the side.
Biehner:
Two things of butter, one half way and then one on the top and then you get the white cheddar powder that you sprinkle on it, just perfect.
Roscoe:
Oh, yeah.
Steph:
Uh, too much not good for me, but because I don't want to drink my popcorn at the same time, like clog my arteries, but I don't know. Candy, bench, and then nachos cut.
Roscoe:
Okay, and Dardie, what about you? So welcome to the show.
Biehner:
Hahaha
Roscoe:
Start one, bench one, cut
Darty:
Go
Roscoe:
one.
Darty:
Leafs
Roscoe:
Popcorn.
Darty:
Go! Go Leafs Go!
Steph:
Go Leaves,
Darty:
Go
Steph:
Go!
Darty:
Leafs Go!
Steph:
Yeah!
Roscoe:
I love you popcorn candy and nachos start one Benjamin cut one for movie snacks
Darty:
popcorn candy nachos. First off I'll say that nachos have almost always been disappointing even though I really want them not to be and I think it's just because the portions have stayed the same size and I have not.
Steph:
I'm sorry.
Roscoe:
Ha ha
Biehner:
I'm
Roscoe:
ha!
Biehner:
sorry.
Darty:
Next up on that candy here's the deal okay so we're gonna say start bench cut all right so I'm starting popcorn popcorn especially with a little bit of that you know but
Steph:
Free
Darty:
butter
Steph:
shit?
Darty:
substitute. Lots
Roscoe:
I'm
Darty:
of
Roscoe:
out.
Darty:
that
Steph:
Yep.
Darty:
popcorn topping as they call it. But
Steph:
Yep,
Darty:
here's
Steph:
yum.
Darty:
my secret ingredient, right? And it's not, it's something that I do, but I didn't start it. So again, call me crazy. All right. Cause Bean was talking about my anchovies on my pizza. Well, here's my little crazy thing is I put M&Ms in my popcorn and it
Steph:
I
Darty:
is
Steph:
fucking
Darty:
amazing.
Roscoe:
Let's
Steph:
knew
Roscoe:
go.
Steph:
it.
Darty:
I'm
Roscoe:
Let's
Darty:
telling
Roscoe:
go.
Darty:
you, it is so
Steph:
I fucking
Darty:
fucking
Roscoe:
Dude.
Steph:
knew
Darty:
good.
Steph:
it.
Biehner:
Roscoe just said that.
Darty:
It is so fucking
Roscoe:
Let's
Darty:
and
Roscoe:
go.
Darty:
I'm a popcorn purist for the longest time. The only thing I probably would put on my popcorn is either salt and vinegar when that was a big deal or like extra cheddar if that when that was a thing. But now extra little bit extra butter and some fucking M&M's. But you got to do it in like a strategic way, because otherwise they end up all at the bottom of the bag. So just like, just, you know, there is some there is a method to this. All right. So start one,
Roscoe:
You're
Darty:
bench one, cut
Roscoe:
a
Darty:
one.
Roscoe:
man after my own
Darty:
I
Roscoe:
heart.
Darty:
I'm starting popcorn, but I got to have M&M's with it. So they're both starting. And unfortunately. If that's the case, then nachos, you're getting cut. Sorry, you're going down the A. Ha ha ha.
Roscoe:
That is the most eloquently put combination. So you have to just kind of, it's more of a handful thing, right? Like you grab a handful of the popcorn, you toss a couple M&Ms in it, and then you toss it in your mouth. Or you get a couple of them on top. Cause like I was saying, I do the peanut ones, so they're really heavy and they go right to the bottom. But you gotta kind of get them to sit on the top of it and you make sure that each grab of popcorn, you're getting some of those cause otherwise you're
Darty:
I've
Roscoe:
losing
Darty:
actually
Roscoe:
them.
Darty:
never done the peanut one. So I'm gonna have to try that at least once. I just feel like for me, I just love the pure chocolatey taste. And I'm sorry to anybody who has a peanut allergy because the Hershey's chocolate is made with peanuts. And I've tried the Hershey's chocolate with, that's peanut free and it's not good. So I said to the people with peanut allergies, that is like the most unfortunate, as I'm lactose intolerant and I can still drink milk, I just shit my pants, right? If... peanut allergy, if
Roscoe:
Same
Darty:
peanut
Steph:
Hehehehehehehehe
Darty:
allergies
Roscoe:
bro
Darty:
were you had peanuts, but then you shit out like, you know, peanuts, that would be more acceptable.
Steph:
Peanuts.
Darty:
Unfortunately, peanut allergy people die, like they have anaphylactic shock. I don't get anaphylactic when I drink milk. So, so unfortunately to all those peanut people out there is the only, I'm sorry that you cannot experience this as even if you tried with regular like Smarties or something, it just is not the same. I've tried a lot of chocolates and unfortunately the Hershey's chocolate because it has a little bit of peanut in it tastes that much better. So, you know. Sorry to those people out there that just don't get to experience that. It just sucks.
Steph:
And the only
Roscoe:
So.
Steph:
way to eat it on the way, dip your face in the bag because your other hand is occupied with drink and have yourself sorted and then immense, you know, eating like a savage. I eat my popcorn like a fucking savage. And then just make a big mess and it's just a part of the experience.
Biehner:
So one of
Darty:
Cineplex
Biehner:
the first times
Darty:
hates her.
Biehner:
my wife and I
Steph:
Yes.
Biehner:
went to the movies together, she was laughing at me because we got a popcorn and a pop to share. And I have a really bad habit of if it's in front of me, I drink it. It doesn't matter
Roscoe:
Oh yeah.
Biehner:
if it's coffee, if it's water, if it's beer, anything. So like at a party, I can get wasted
Steph:
noted.
Biehner:
really quickly because if it's in front of me, it gets drank. I've been at parties before and it's like, Jesus, how have I drank eight beers already?
Roscoe:
just
Steph:
It's been
Roscoe:
open
Steph:
like 10
Roscoe:
a num.
Steph:
minutes.
Biehner:
It's there.
Darty:
Good ol' backwash beaner. Just...
Steph:
Yeah!
Biehner:
So one of the first times we ever went to the movie theater, she was kind of teasing me because I bought like the large one, right? Because Cineplex, we get large, you get free refills. And then I had finished the large by myself before the movie even started.
Roscoe:
Oh my god.
Steph:
How many times
Roscoe:
That's
Steph:
did you
Roscoe:
dangerous.
Steph:
pee?
Darty:
out there drinking everybody's empties, just making sure they're all polished off.
Biehner:
No, you learn not to do that real quick when you get one that's got a cigarette butt in it. Ha ha ha ha
Roscoe:
Wuh!
Biehner:
ha
Steph:
I was just
Biehner:
ha.
Steph:
gonna say, yes.
Roscoe:
No, no,
Darty:
I got so
Roscoe:
no.
Darty:
lucky, I picked up a drink
Steph:
Well.
Darty:
that was sitting down, I was at a cottage and it wasn't something I didn't know where it was from, it was probably my sister's or something, I was a young lad, I picked it up, it was probably a cola or something, and I was just gonna have a sip, just a sip, and there was a wasp inside of it, and I got so lucky, because I was like, I could just
Roscoe:
Who?
Darty:
feel
Steph:
Go.
Darty:
the bzz, and I was like, holy shit! I didn't swallow it, I could just tell he was in the can, so I was like, oh, that was fucking scary.
Roscoe:
Oh lordy. So do you guys remember when Cineplex had those little like kids box thing? I don't know if they still do it where it's like a cardboard box and you get, there was like popcorn in it and a little candy thingy and a drink that was like in a cup holder in it.
Steph:
Yep.
Roscoe:
Those were the shit.
Steph:
I never got that. I
Biehner:
Apparently
Steph:
don't know.
Biehner:
Johnny's parents are rich.
Steph:
Yeah
Roscoe:
No, I always remember them from like if I went to some someone's birthday party and we went to a movie when I was
Steph:
so
Roscoe:
younger
Steph:
you had rich
Roscoe:
It was
Steph:
friends
Roscoe:
like
Steph:
too.
Biehner:
You had friends?
Roscoe:
yeah Yeah, man, that's that's how it be in Koverk no,
Steph:
I've
Roscoe:
it's
Steph:
never
Roscoe:
just
Steph:
been to a birthday at a movie. The fuck?
Roscoe:
My, like I said before, Harry Potter always came out like around the week of my birthday. And I don't know, it became a thing. The movie theater in Cobra was popping for birthday parties
Steph:
So
Roscoe:
sometimes.
Steph:
was your birthday party.
Roscoe:
It wasn't mine. I just, saying that people had birthdays at the movie theater was a thing. I remember seeing Cat in the Hat for someone's birthday in the theater. That movie was fucking crazy. It's still one of my all-time favorite movies to watch. I'm just like, what is happening right now?
Steph:
It's weird to think that we used to not be able to recline in theaters. Now I go to the theater, I'm like,
Roscoe:
You go... Only some of them do.
Steph:
here they all do. They're all luxurious chairs, it feels. And you can order beer to your chair in some of them.
Roscoe:
The VIP ones are crazy for that, where you just get a menu. They brought us like a bucket with ice and a bottle of wine in it and everything. Like it's nuts. And like, yeah, a Cineplex stepping the game up. Anyway, running too long on this topic. Start one, bench one, cut one. I'm gonna start. The idea of nachos, like Dardy said, is so much better than actually getting them. Like the cheese sauce is good, but you don't get an, I feel like I want three times more than they actually give you, and it's not
Steph:
Yeah
Roscoe:
worth the price.
Steph:
and it
Roscoe:
So.
Steph:
hardens in like 30 seconds then you're like
Roscoe:
The value for your money, you're probably best getting a big thing of popcorn. And I'm, yeah, always going to go with candy as well in its rank. It's just, it's the combo. So I'm starting, starting popcorn. I think I gave us an easy one here. Benching candy and cutting the nachos. Dardie, since you joined us late here, do you want to send us off with your thoughts on the Leafs performance tonight and sticking in the series?
Darty:
Look, I'm not going to say it was great, but we won. It's exactly what we needed. I can only expect more from these guys because hell, I want to fucking win. I want to go to seven and make Florida eat a large steaming pile, as Steph eloquently put it, of caca. All right. They can eat so much
Steph:
We're
Darty:
fricking
Steph:
gonna have
Roscoe:
Hehehe
Steph:
to...
Darty:
caca that I don't want to see Kachuk until next year. And then I want to shout to the top of the rafters that Brady is better. Okay. All right. Because that those clowns out there, they think that they can wax us. They can wipe the floor with us clean. You're the Florida Panthers. You've been a laughing stock and a joke for over two decades. Don't fucking at me. All right. Sam Bennett. You couldn't even do two fucking push ups. All right. I could do two push ups. And I'm ultimately the same age as you back then. So, you know what? You're weak. Then I could probably do more push ups than you now. Come fucking find me. I'm not. I'll meet you in Holland, buddy. Right at the right at the bridge before the park. We'll do a little scrap. I'll probably lose, but you know what? I could still do more fucking pushups than you. So don't fuck it at me, Sam Bennett. And also, who's that other asshole out there? I already mentioned Kachak, but I'm gonna mention it again.
Steph:
Gudis.
Darty:
Oh yeah, Gudis. You know,
Steph:
Gudis.
Darty:
Gudis? You're fucking toad, all right? Figure it out, man.
Steph:
Ha
Darty:
It's
Steph:
ha!
Darty:
after the whistle. It's after the whistle. The refs are so garbage tonight too, oh my God. But whatever, Leafs one baby, we're bringing it to seven. We're coming home. Let's make it happen, all right? Make the dream happen, guys. Come on. And I'm sorry if Inside the Rink does not agree with me fighting Sam Bennett on the Hollandic Bridge, but you know what? I'm probably going to get my ass kicked. It's okay. I'm the kind of guy that I'm like Justin Hall. I will literally go out there and get my fucking ass reamed and still, you know,
Roscoe:
And then he leaves!
Steph:
And he... And he dipped.
Roscoe:
He literally just dips out on that, you gotta be fucking kidding me.
Steph:
That's so funny. Damn.
Roscoe:
Oh my god.
Steph:
Yeah,
Roscoe:
Okay.
Steph:
accurate, accurate.
Roscoe:
Okay, we're out of here. That's it.
Biehner:
Game five
Roscoe:
In
Steph:
Hmm
Biehner:
Friday.
Roscoe:
Game 5 Friday, in the interest of adding Southey to the mix, we're gonna we'll go on Saturday. We'll try to do it early Saturday. If they lose, we might have to do it right away. I don't know.
Biehner:
Don't talk like that.
Roscoe:
Okay,
Steph:
No,
Roscoe:
no, I'm just saying,
Steph:
no,
Roscoe:
I'm not...
Steph:
no, no, no, no. Neelander even said this is his first time being down 0.3 in a series and it was going to be fun. So they're gonna have more fun on Friday.
Roscoe:
You're right. You're right. And like I said, even if they had lost tonight, I would have needed a day to recoup anyway before we could record. So regardless, we'll do Saturday and then we'll do back to back D. Okay, cool. Oh, you know what? What do they have? Fuck it. I don't know. We'll be back.
Steph:
What?
Roscoe:
I hate promising what episodes are gonna be because every time I say what the episode's gonna be, it's never that day. It's
Steph:
It
Roscoe:
like,
Steph:
is Mother's
Roscoe:
without
Steph:
Day
Roscoe:
fail.
Steph:
