Florida Panthers Live Community Chat – Marchand In Overtime!
Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good. And it is good morning. Okay. I I interrupted a deep deep nappy time to present myself to you all here at my usual two minutes afternoon right on time. Oh, and I can’t I won’t be sitting cross-legged this morning. We had a fun night last night. I was jumping up, running around, and that was uh even after the hockey game. Let’s leave it at that. How is everybody doing? All right, let’s see what we got in the chat. Hey, Beex. Oh, man. Late night. Yeah, ain’t no ain’t no doubt about it. Late night, man. All right, we Hey, JC. Okay, Merricks, we’re communist as we’re not getting swept. Oh, let me tell you, when they made it two nothing, when they made it to nothing, and look, anything can still happen. Do not mistake it. But when Toronto made it two nothing, I just like I was resigned. I was resigned to it, you know? I just it’s like well what do I I pointed in fact when I got up to lift for the second goal I pointed to the championship sign and like they can’t take that away from us that that they can’t take that away. JC says the analysts and commentators are so bad biz refused to talk interview because it was Martian. Oh Jesus that guy he’s an attention [ __ ] that guy. Jeez, man. You’re just not They’re mildly entertaining, but they’ve had so many I never really had an issue with them. I didn’t really pay much attention to them. And then over the years, they’ve had like two or three like just horrible like like not bad takes, but just like really bad wrong information. And I was like, man, I don’t know. He seem he seems kind of cocky out of like thin air. It seems manufactured. Hey, Colobby. Hey, by the way, Kobe, I listened to your message. Oh, I responded. I see that, Colobby. I don’t even remember responding, but I did. It’s the other person I got to respond to. Drag Racing Bowl prediction if Florida wins game four to win the series. I I can I can roll with that. I can roll with that. JC says, “Leaf fans are saying we had puck luck the entire game and that the refs were on our side.” They always say the refs were on our side. I mean, even Dangle at the end of his when he was talking about the penalty at the end of the third period, even he was like, it’s it’s the right call because there’s certain things you can let go and then there’s certain things that you just you just can’t do. You know, it just the Lendell thing to the face. They they deem that to be a follow through. I hate it, but I tend to agree with it. I kind of agree with that take. Joshua says, “I was at the arena last night. The place was jumping when Marshian won this.” Yeah, man. It was so much fun. Right. And in terms of the puck luck, there no team that ever won the cup that didn’t get puck luck. 75% Well, 75% of the playoffs is the work that you do to create the other 25% which is puck luck, right? I mean, pucks going off bodies and and and skates and what happened in the Winnipeg game last even though Winnipeg won that game. Handle it. That’s that’s playoff hockey, man. Koba just wow. Jos, hopefully they carry over that momentum. Don’t say that, Don. Um Maurice doesn’t believe in momentum. So Kobe isn’t Donna Caps fan. She’s a new hockey fan. like she started watching hockey a couple years ago because she was single for the first time in a long time. Started watching hockey, got into hockey. She lives over there on that side of the bridge. So, it’s only natural that she would like to watch the Caps. So, she likes the team, but it’s not like a a diet in the wool. It’s not like us were, you know, fans since day one and and everything like that. So, it’s not it’s not hard for her to root for the Panthers to do well, but at the same time in her bracket, um she chose divorce instead of picking Panthers over Caps. So, there’s that. I hear I hear you, JC. I luckily we don’t hear it that much because we’re doing our own commentate. Or is that a Is that JC? Are you talking about the guys on TV or Kyle and I? because that I’m sure that that sentence could be a could be applied to Kyle and I. It’s uh disgusting how blatant the bias is. Con says, “I think Maurice can can probably finally trust to play Londell’s.” Well, they did that apparently. Apparently that’s what happened there for a little bit of time was they put that line up against Matthews. Yeah, I appreciate that, David. Hey Coupe. Hey thank you Beex. Thank you bud. Thank you Beex says a thought and if we aren’t able to sign resign Bennett due to the cost if Bennett walks we resign Marian bump that third line up to the second line. thoughts. I have no problem with Barkov, Reinhardt, Verhagy, Lindell, Lucin, and Marian if that’s how you had to go. And then you would have Sam Muskevich probably just burying other teams on that third line. So if if if that happened, Beex, set, that’s a really good point. If that happened, I feel Lundelle’s proven he can handle 2C at this point. And if you could get a if you could get a 3C in his place, that gives us, you know, a helpful advantage as well. And we’d have the money for that if we had to let Bennett go. You’d have Samvich right there next to him because you’re not going to break up Lundell and Loose to Ryan. And that’s the only question is can loose to Ryan get you enough goals at at on the second line. I think we know Londell and Marian could and would Marian want to go a whole season in the top six you know would he be able to keep you know keep that up. Colin says the rest on the Panther side even though the Leafs have more power plays than the Cats. I mean there’s calls that happen right? It goes both ways. There was a couple of times there’s there’s at least twice a game where I’m like, “Oh crap.” And then I’m like, “Oh, they’re not going to call that.” Okay. But it it goes both ways. It goes It goes both ways. Just I You guys know I prefer to just not have the calls, you know. David, yeah, he says, “Good. Cool to see Bob. Tell the guys no problem after each one.” Right. Key Masher says the residents raggy complainer happy to take the day off. Yeah, look, he may not be putting the puck in the back of the net, but he can’t nobody can complain about his his effort. He’s hitting people. He’s he’s been really responsible on defense. I mean, he’s not saying it. He’s not saying like, “I wanted to pick up my game because I’m not scoring.” He said yesterday because it’s been wa he’s been watching Bennett so much which that’s an interesting comment. Hey Matthew. Yeah great win. JC says I can live with the resigning Marshian letting Bennett walk. However, I like them being on the third line. Right. Yeah. I I there wouldn’t be any third or fourth line that could contend. I I agree. I agree. And that’s what we’ve been saying all year is Bennett kind of holds us. Bennett keeps us having that massive advantage on the third line. He had real homers for sure. Is Swaggy back? I mean, he put one in, right? I think he he’s got to get he contributed heavily to the overtime goal. So, I think think we’re close to that territory. You know what I mean? We still need one more like there’s one minute left in the game and he breaks the tie and wins the game to for him to get complete Swaggy back. Might be Swaggy V2. JC says we cannot change the fourth line. No, there if they change the fourth line, I’m going to fly down there and ring Mara’s neck myself. That you just can’t. It was so much I don’t know what the numbers were in the faceoff circle. Some somebody can blast this to bits if it’s not true, but it appeared to be so much better just the actual play of that four flying. True. Yeah. About the Leaf fans. I know. I know. Every podcast that’s that’s they were just played dirty out to her players. I mean, I don’t know what to say. The Panthers aren’t even the worst example of some of these big bad teams. And hockey is so different now, too. It’s like I I I kind of believe a lot of that’s young kids who never saw hockey in the 80s and the 90s, especially the 90s. In the 90s, if you actually literally decapitated a guy on the ice, if you could sew his head on before the ref caught on to it, you you know, not even two minutes. Michael says, “I don’t know. I’m usually neutral, but with the ref’s high stick on Lundell was right in front of the ref, and the Carlo go was so blatantly over the goal line. No way the ref didn’t see that.” the Lundell thing. They they um they deemed that a followth through. And I’ll be honest, Michael, when I saw the replay, that’s kind of what I thought. It was it was it was it was iffy, sketchy for it to be a follow through. He was swinging at the puck with the stick. I don’t know what the exact rule there is, but if I’m being honest, if that was a Panther player that did that, I would be screaming it was a follow through. So, to to be fair there, Kachchuck says, “I’m telling you, a deep sea fishing boat is all it will take to keep Marian in Florida.” I bet. I bet. Comm says, “Well, where do you play Kachchuck then?” He needs he’s taking next year off. Kachchuck is going to have surgery in the off season and then he’s going to take a long nap and be on the LTIR for the entire year and come back for game one of the playoffs. Now, I’m completely making that up, but if there’s any dude that needs to do that, it’s him. That’s my take and I’m sticking to it. Especially if we go through and win again. if if if he because what’s what if if he has a sports hernia and he plays all the way through and we win the cup and he plays that many games. I mean the surgery is just going to be nasty. So I get your point. I left Kachchuck off for that top six there. Um but you just I just don’t think you want to break up Lendell loose. You’d want to at least try that. But I I Kachchuck’s gota just sit. Just sit. Take a year off. Michael says, “Wag’s not back. He had an empty net goal and many shots haven’t been on that.” He put one in though, right? Was it yesterday or the game or the game before? Was it yesterday or the game before? He put one in off the on in front of the net. I could have sworn I remember that. I say has just realized Jeff Skinner played 1,078 regular season games to finally reach the playoffs only to be a healthy scratch after his very first postseason game. Oh man. Qatara says, “Yeah, all three games have been high-scoring onegoal games. We we we should see we should I my my call would be a lowscoring um game four because that was two games. That was how the Panthers played until Toronto made it 3-1 and then we finally started playing Panthers hockey and the only other goal Toronto got the rest of the night was an own goal.” Hey, thank you, Frank. Thank you, buddy. Dang it. Dang it. Thank you, Frank. He says, “Seek the Chuck down as he’s contributing nothing. The shenanigans after the whistles need to stop. I put out a short about that. Might even give the Leafs momentum. Chucky is a waste of ice, just like the Four Nations.” Well, I mean, before yesterday’s game, I was kind of hoping he was one of the guys that was going to be out with injury. He did look better yesterday in terms of contributing in the offensive zone. His puck handling was better. His passes weren’t off, etc. But defensively, damn, I mean, he’s a massive liability on the ice, and he was already just barely adequate defensively, right? He already could barely skate as it is. Um, the problem with taking him off the ice is is who you know what I mean? Like I don’t know what you do there because you’re not you’ve already moved. Let’s let’s face it. Lindel Luc Ryan and Marshian’s already the second line right now. You know what I mean? I don’t know how they’re spacing out in terms of ice time and everything, but that’s already happened right now because in part because of Kachchuck and Rodriguez really isn’t producing a whole lot. So, I just don’t know who you put out there. The only guy that we have to put in his spot is Boquist and the difference. You know what I mean? It’s like it’s a tough call. Thank you again, Frank. Michael says, “Sign Marian for two years and get rid of Eggpl. I don’t care if Bennett has been producing the last three years.” I don’t know. I would prefer to sign Bennett. No doubt. It’s just a matter of at this point what we’re all hopeful for is that he just doesn’t want to sign the contract during the playoffs and as soon as the season’s over, then he’ll sign the contract because they’ve been negotiating for a while. And our general consensus around here with my exception is pay him six or seven million. And my thing is if he wants to if he if you have to give him eight to sign him for four years I do it. So either they just didn’t want to sign a contract during the season or they got a negotiation problem. Yeah. Keer that’s I agree. says, “I want to see Swaggy ding one in the corner from his office at least once to be convinced.” Right. Go Slayer says, “I think we need to keep Eggpl. We give him a hard time, but he’s a top tier defenseman when he’s not being a traffic cone.” Yeah, that to me is the biggest confusing question mark in terms of getting Seth Jones cuz we were already kind of like do we have the money for Bennett and Eblad and now you have to keep Jones. So, and they were still ne I mean the writing could be on the wall. They got Jones and they started immediately negotiating with Bennett. The only thing that that says to me is they’re going to let Eblad walk or Eblad has already told them if you only have like five dollars left I’ll take it. I want to stay. I don’t care about the money. One of those two things to me seems logically like that’s what’s going on. JC about Kachchuck. Yeah. No, he doesn’t have full range of motion. Range of motion. He’s shoveling the puck. Matthew says, “What would I pay pay Brad?” I’m going to assume he’d want I’m gonna say two, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Marshian said he wanted three years. Um I don’t know. Like I mean he could have stayed in Boston for six or whatever. I don’t I don’t know. I mean I don’t know what we’d have to pay him. I certainly wouldn’t mind giving him Rodriguez’s money. Let’s let’s just start there. No offense to Rodriguez, but if you can move Rodriguez and sign Marian for Rodriguez’s money, you do it now in the middle of the playoff. You you know what I mean? Um, but how much of a how much of a discount does Marian want to take to stick around? Some of that might have to do with if Bennett resigns because if Bennett doesn’t resign that puts a damper on what Marshian might believe is going to be the Panthers ability to keep making long runs and yeah so 4×4 that that’s what Kachchucken is saying four might be a little bit long in term for him but if he if he’s willing to sign a contract and we could pull it off I mean it’s it’s It would just be if he if he could stay with L down loose to Ryan. And I mean the the the that line is it reminds me a little bit of when um Bennett and Hubo first got together where it was just like damn. Drew says in the 70s the players would climb over the glass to fight a fan. Right. JC says it’s not follow through because the puck was in the air. That by ne definition in the rule book is a swat at the puck. Yeah, that’s that’s where I wasn’t sure about JC was the exact rule. Yeah. Hey Kachchuck says Chucky full year LTI is not out of the question. I mean why not? I mean, the one dude who was it for Landis Scott just took what two years off, right? Obviously, we know he didn’t take it off. He was hurt. But I mean, if there’s anybody that should just sit down and and train and get stronger and get healthy, it’s Kachchuck. You know what I mean? You’re talking next season, especially if we win again. If we go that far, the guy’s groin’s going to be ruined. Oxam says, “Hey Jaws, everyone’s talking about how the Panthers could be 03. Nobody’s talking about how it could be Cats up 2-1.” Hey, and and if if Marian scores on Babski, none of this happens, right? Game five, right? If Marian scores on Babski, nothing none of this might happen at all. There’s no run of the cup. There’s no redemption cuz we lost the cup. And that’s that that’s that’s hockey, man. Colin said, “Yeah, no Olympics for chicken chuck.” Good god. So, Matthew, we don’t have a official diagnosis. The assumption is that it’s a groin sports hernia type of thing. Most of the guys that have played and are watching him skate, they kind of feel like that’s the injury. But the team has never come out officially and said exactly what it is. David says, “If Effectton with DOI, did he get two games? Our guys are just so tough. He doesn’t look as bad. He left his feet and hit it hit the head with the stick.” Oh, the the do right. Yeah, the doy one. Yeah. Idk says, “No way we’re winning the cup. I would be content with beating the Leafs.” I mean, I understand that sentiment, IDK, but right now, I won’t say no way for this team for anything. Not right now. It’s It’s just a matter of how much gas they’ve got left in the tank. Yeah, exactly. Communist, he needs to enjoy the margaritas, right? Trey says, “If Bennett walks, you’re not keeping Lendell at 3C and trying to find a 2C. Lendell would be centering Kachchuck and Mackey, which that line would be Gas. And you’re finding a 3C for E2 and Marian. Oh, I don’t like that. I don’t like breaking up Wendell and and E2. You’re not wrong. God help us if they try to put Boquist there. I don’t like that. I don’t like that at all. And and which version of Kachchuck are we getting? Are we getting the I’m fine to play version? The dude needs to sit for a while. I don’t want to see him at the very least until after the Olympics next year. And he’s not allowed to go. John says, “What do we think about mixing up the first and the third second line players?” Well, that’s what they did last night, but they moved they swapped for Hegy and Rodriguez last night. That that’s really the only move to make there. You’re not going to break up you’re not going to break up Rockar and Reinhardt. That’s that’s too important our defensiveness there. The problem is is Chucky. Like what you’re saying, Chucky’s a liability, unfortunately. I see that, Trey. Unless we want to trade for sin. Oh my god, that’s that’s not bad. Coot says, “A comment under Dangle’s video mentioned it could be worrying for them with the amount of wear and tear on their Dmen from all the hits. Hopefully for the cats, it becomes tangible as the series is going on.” You guys, any of you seen that that short that was out? Um, it was Maurice yelling at the guys on the bench and he was telling them to pound it so they had nothing left come game seven. So, this is this right now is shaping up to be the Paul Maurice dream series. The one against Edmonton was not. You don’t want to lose three straight. But this right here, this is this is turning into the Paul Maurice dream series where his team just stays in the fight, keeps it close, scratches and claws to game seven, and the other team is just beat to a pulp. And the problem with that, there’s a problem with that is that let’s say Panthers win this one and seven the way this series has been. What what could we possibly have left in the gas tank for Washington or Carolina, especially at this point? Well, like you said, just beat the Leafs, right? Yeah, I didn’t even read what Chucky what Kachchuck said. Yeah, I don’t care about winning the cup just breaking the Leafs. The Leafs are good right now. Guitar is Toronto just too fast. How come the Panthers aren’t playing their usual style? Well, they they started they got back to their usual style middle of the game yesterday, which is why you only saw the one more goal. It’s it’s a combination of Toronto’s speed and the Panthers did not they weren’t putting in the work. The forwards weren’t putting in the work to just dump the puck and go into board battles. And and the Leafs were taking the transitions too far, too fast. The D were pinching too much and so that I mean you seen the one breakaway last night, right? Bob stopped it. No. Well, was the one where Haiti got the holding penalty on. I mean, we’re just letting guys go right past us, but we’re standing still puck watching a lot of times when it’s happening. Who was who was saying they’re much better in every way? Does somebody get a comment deleted? Hey, Rosado. Oh, Stew was on TV. What at the game? Yeah, good for him. Lewis, am I surprised Parkov didn’t score yet in overtime? Nah, that’s not his I mean, he’s done it some, but that’s not his thing. Especially at overtime, his main job is to make sure nobody else scores. Case. Yeah, man. Everybody’s heart. Everybody’s heart for sure. I know, right? No. That’s that. I don’t want to see I was just getting ready to say I don’t want to see Sturm on the ice in case he says I don’t want to see boquist skate again. Unfortunately, we gave Boquist an extension in the middle of this year. I don’t know what Zetto was smoking on that day, but now we got that guy for two years at 1.5. He’s made some interesting moves as you’re not complaining about it with the Jones thing. I don’t know. This the only way you keep a neckl and Bennett with with and and Jones and if you wanted to resign Marshian, somebody’s going to have to go. Maybe you I mean you could package Rodriguez and Vocus together to get five million or whatever in cap freed up. But that’s a lot of depth you’re trading away too. You better hope Sordiff and Pvari can p can carry your water for you. Exactly. case. No matter what happens in this series, we’re cup champs. Michael says, “No, the same ceiling as Lucy.” Interesting. Ryan, now we get to the game that worries me the most. Game four after a game three win. So many teams dropped the second home game trying to come back after being down 02. Yep. And we can’t we can’t be screwing around. The bad starts have got to stop. Was that twice in this series? We’ve given up a goal in the first 45 seconds of the game. Goo says, “I’d like to stay focused on the current playoffs. Glad to see the fourth line change. At least have been playing tough. Kudos to them. We need we need the beatings to continue until the Leafs give up.” Oh, it’s going to be a long series. Yeah. Yes, the the the the hit on Tana with Ver Verhiggy is definitely he said in the press conference, I’ll say it again. He said that he he’s learning from watching Bennett play. And if you think about it, I mean, Verhagi’s got the speed. He can score. He certainly can make the, you know, many of the same moves that Bennett could make. That’s one of the things that was just missing from Verhei’s game. And I mean, I’m all for it because that was everybody’s big complaint about V for Hegy was defensive liability doesn’t really do anything. And that’s that’s changed. That’s that’s a good thing to see. Trey says, “I honestly don’t think Rodriguez has a spot on next year’s team.” And that will clear up some space a little bit. Yeah. Michael says, “Everyone signs a one-year deal until the next cap raise.” I know, Case about the humil humility. I get it. It would be like Dolphin fans talking [ __ ] You know what I mean? It’s like, you know, we haven’t won a playoff game since Kyle was in diapers. That’s true, right? We didn’t win one. Did we win one with one a couple years later? Do I I can’t remember. He might have been in pull-ups. Chucky said uh Kushin says Chucky is spending a lot of time on LTR. Next season we have the space. Well, he he’d have to spend the whole season on LTIR if we were actually going to use his space. This is my back scratcher. I got hard well water here. My back itches a lot. K says, “You know, Toronto is feeling it right now. We’ve been doubling their hits every game. Eventually, that’s going to catch up to them. They had the series in their hand last night. Now, I’m not saying we’re going to win, but it’s three to one and they had us down 02 and it’s just right. It’s right there in their right right there. They get one more goal and now it’s 4-1 and the series is 03 and it’s it’s crickets. It’s it’s done at that point. That’s how close they were to winning that series last night. Joe says, “Let’s not act like fans aren’t allowed to be fans and love the games and the fact that their team is playing well.” Oh, certainly certainly no complaints that way for me. What was this? Um, somebody said, “Yo, Eric, Eric says, “Swatting of pucks in the air is not considered a follow through per the rules.” Thank you. Yeah, that’s the one thing I wasn’t sure on. Then I don’t know because that’s what they said. That’s what Maurice said that he was told that they considered it a followth through. So I guess the ref didn’t know know the rule. Scroll down a little bit. Yeah, Joe, I I get what you’re saying. I get what you’re saying, man. I, you know, I’m a I’m an old dude. Older dude, so I like the older style of hockey. David says, “Don’t be left his feet and targeted the head, which I’m cool with. Just don’t cry when we knock the crap out of him back.” Yeah. I mean, look, that stuff happens in the playoffs. For me, I’m just like, let it let it go. What What’s the point? What’s the point of playing 82 games to get to the playoffs if we’re just going to see the same style of hockey in the playoffs that we see in the regular season? The the the NHL survives because of the elevated competition and all a lot of that rough stuff that happens in the playoffs. If if it if it wasn’t, you know what I mean? like NBA basketball for the most part from what I’ve seen and heard, right? They’ve just got a bigger fan base, but the playoffs aren’t really all that much. You see a little bit more action, but but with hockey, it’s two different sports. Regular season hockey and and playoff hockey is two different sports and it has to stay that way for the league to survive. It just that’s what draws people in is you get two months at least two months of just brutality on ice. That’s what makes it so beautiful. Kachchuck says, “Why is trading Bob not an option?” Nah, he not Bob’s Bob’s getting extended. Bob’s getting extended, but we and but you know, it won’t be long before you might start to see uh I don’t think we’ll see Cooper Black as the backup next year, but he probably you might consider going into the season with him at at three. you know, he might he might get a game or two next year if if you want to see that because we do we do we do need to start at least, you know, getting a general idea if him or the kid from Russia that people have been telling me about is is going to be a viable Bob replacement in a couple of years. I think you’ll see a Bob extension this this off season. Eric says, “We got a taste of how they can play during that second period. if they can replicate this all the way in game four. We might just pull off the comeback. Yeah. CJ says, “Do you think we can get back to two to one scores? Not sure we can get out of this series needing four plus go.” I think we did, CJ. The the above comment. I I think we did. Um because all of a sudden once it got down to 3-1, then we started leaving the two defenseman back and playing playing our style. The Gman stops pinching and lo and behold, we got three goals. Hey, Sergey. What? I heard about Oh my god. Yeah, he’s gonna need surgery in that general vicinity. That’s for sure. Exactly. I see. Right. That too. Gun guitar. He needs Chucky needs to just chill. Fet. You know what’s funny, Fett, is that you know um when the goal happened and I start running the the dude that was in front of the net was Verhaggy. So I thought maybe it had originally deflected off him. So I almost said Vhagi in overtime and then Kyle was like it’s Marian. It was is Marian. I thought for a second it might but I mean Verhagi helped make the play. you standing right there. But the fact that it went off the defenseman JC says, “Imagine a world where we where we resign Bennett and Marian. Chucky takes the LTIR ZTO.” Zitto makes moves and does magic to bring in Brady. And now picture the playoffs with two Chunks, Benny and Marian. Jesus. Okay, I’m sold. I’m sold there. Oh my god. The the the league would shut down. The lease the the Canadian teams would forfeit. They would they would not forfeit. They would strike. They would go on strike if that happens. If if they if if Chucky said, “I’m out for the year.” The problem at that point Well, you know what? We could do that too, JC, because I was gonna say the problem with that point is the next year, but the Bob’s 10 million comes off the books. I know it’s play time, but I’m just saying if Bob decided that he stick around with for 2 million, you could legitimately pay that lineup. V uh Kate says, “Vez, please, for the love of God, get your ish together and beat Edmonton.” I don’t think it’s going to happen. I don’t think it’s going to happen. Case. Yeah, we’ve talked about that before where his shooting percentage is way down. His accuracy. He got married. He got married. That’s it. He’s shooting a shot elsewhere. Hey, RSC. I agree with you about Rodriguez, John. Yeah. Communist which which one I’ve already forgotten if I said something so my brain u yeah Joe says leaf fans have a good reason to hate McCulla Scott nothing to do with Florida that game. Yeah. No. Um, for us it’s the other guy. I forget his name for the Panthers and Maurice. Oh, what’s the other what’s the other what’s the ref’s name? You guys are going to know it. Even I said it a couple days ago, too. I forget the guy’s name. Scrolling down to the bottom for the comments. Oh, is Ma’s Does Matthew here? Hey, MJ. How you? I’m not seeing him, bud. I’m way behind on the chat. I’m way behind on the chat. I’m talking. Let I I get for for what for you guys that don’t know when I’m looking at Streamyard, I have it blown up so I can see the chat. So, I only see like three or four comments at a time. So, if I’m answering a comment, I’m not seeing what’s going on in the chat below me until I scroll down. So, I’m I’m way behind. I didn’t even know MJ MJ was here. That’s how behind I am. Hey MJ, thank you brother. There we go. Geez, that was eight minutes ago. You guys got to tell me when I get too behind, but then I wouldn’t know it because I don’t see it. I’m just gonna have to get better glasses. Thank you, MJ. Happy Saturday, Jaws. Oh my god. How about that Cat’s comeback in overtime, Brad Marshian. Amazing game. That’s what I’m talking about. Headlines in a moment. You might know some of them already. Thank you, MJ. Yeah, when I I have to have the chat because I don’t want to sit here and be like, you know, like this the whole the whole time. So, I blow up and I can only see like three, four comments at once. Yeah, I was way behind. I was way behind. Y’all probably wonder wondering what the hell he’s talking about. I’ll try to do better. It’s a It’s a You know, we have a lot of people here, right? You got it’s a good stream when the chat’s going too fast for me. What I need is I need Lasix so I can see again. And I started off this season I could see, you know, I didn’t need my glasses and now I need them for everything. Hey, Simon. All right. Um I I do believe they’ll tie this series tomorrow, Simon. I do believe they’re going to get this sucker tied up. I think you win game four, we’ll lose five, win four, lose five, win six and seven. No, that’s not what I was thinking. Somehow we’re going to end up in game seven winning in Toronto. I don’t know how it’s going to happen. Hey Paul, how you doing? Yeah, you told me Bqua shouldn’t be in the in the lineup, right? Hey, Simon. So, I did get to the gym yesterday. Uh, it’s cold. It’s cold. Can’t go fishing today. I mean, it’s only going to be a high of like 65 or something. It got really cold last night. So, let’s honest here on the weekend. I might take I might take uh I might take Leia down to the river, though. All right, let’s get back to the bottom. Okay, here we go. All right, so I’m I’m on the bottom of the chat. on the bottom of the chat. Now, David says, “If we win game four, it’s over in six.” Wouldn’t that be something? Wouldn’t that be something? Real says, “Just bring Adam back and Jesper will start scoring again. He stopped scoring the same week we cut his brother.” Isn’t that something though, right? Holy crap. Thank you, Paul. Thank you, brother. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, man. Outstanding. Holy crap. See that? Thank you, brother. Thank you. I can’t I can’t even speak at this point. Damn. Thank you, my man. Hell yeah. Thank you. That’ll wake me up. That was worth I was I was cracking the joke at the beginning of the stream because I was a little bit groggy. Thank you, Paul. Thank you, man. Yeah, I got to uh I need I need some new spoons. I’m I’m I’m running I’m running low. So, that that actually helps because you I forget how many spoons I lose during the year because I just use these little little spoons about this big, but they’re like four bucks a piece and you know, you get stuck on a lot of logs out there at the river and you forget over the course of a year. Then next winter comes and it’s like, damn, I I need another 50 50 75 bucks in spoons. But I only use those spoons out there because it’s the one I can catch anything on. I catch the catfish, the bass, and the perch, and the carp will actually hit those spoons. So, thank you. Much appreciated, bud. Boy. Okay, what do we got? I want to make sure. Dana says, “The Jets play before the Panthers tomorrow.” Let me look at the schedule. That’s a good question. So, now for this, I gotta um I got to look at the I want to look at the schedule so I have an idea of what games we’re doing here. Um, obviously, we’re doing Caps and Canes today. that it’s uh if if Kyle wants to stay up and do nights and Oilers his himself, he can’t. Tomorrow is just the two games. So yeah, I would be I don’t see any reason why we probably will do Jets Stars or we might do the end of that. I’ll have to talk to Kyle. It depends on what Kyle does tonight. If Kyle stays up tonight to do Knights and Oilers on his own, he probably won’t want to do Jet Stars. So, I’ll I’ll let him pick which one of those games that we’re going to do. And then obviously Caps and Canes um this afternoon. So, everybody get ready to take a nice nap this afternoon during Caps and Canes for sure. All right, let me scroll back here because I think I Hey, thank thank you, Daniel. Thank you, bud. Yeah, more spoons. I appreciate that, man. Thank you. I get the notification on my phone for them to uh when they when I I wait for them to be usually buy two get one free. It’s a good deal. Thank you, brother. All right, here we go. Thank you, MJ. Thank you, bud. I saw that. Thank you, man. Says sports headlines. Derek Carr retires. Stolar is progressing from injury. That’s good. Jason Dominguez, youngest Yankee ever to hit three home runs in a game. He’s 20. Ken Holland might be the King’s new GM and Bill Bellichic girlfriend not banned at UNC. You know, I don’t know anything about the Bellich story. I saw a headline and I’m like, nope. I don’t even I don’t even want to know. I don’t even want to think about Bill Bich and whatever he’s doing with a girl. You know what I mean? No, I can’t even think about that. Thank you, MJ. But yeah, I saw that this morning. Derek Carr retires. So I wonder if Kylo knock on the door and give me that give me that notice. Oh, was somebody asking about Yeah, I don’t know anything about the Pope. I’m not going to I’m not going to pretend to know anything about that that stuff. Eric says, “Bob has yet to have a standing on his head performance this series. He’s due.” I agree. Uh, Matthew, I have eaten the catfish in the past. The last several years, I haven’t eaten them because I didn’t really need the extra food. Money was fine. And then, um, last year, I just didn’t want to take the time to clean them. This year, as soon as the catfish are in, I’ll be down there every night catching dinner. I’ll be down there a lot catching dinner this year because we can go down there once it warms up enough once the catfish come in mid June until basically like the first week of October. I can go down there anytime I want with the tide being right and catching off for dinner. Kachchuckton says, “Real talk though, if the cat’s tied to series, how much crap are we getting about knocking Stallars out?” I mean, Wool has really been good. He really has, but yeah, we’ll hear it. Just there’s no way around it. We’ll hear it. Gab says, “Bill’s doing well.” A girl younger than Kyle, man. Jeez, he’s better than craft and massage parlors, right? Bichc’s wife is hot. Trey says it’s our third pope since the Sabres last made the playoff. Oh, so Simon says, “In my opinion, would I rather who would do I want Edmonton or Winnipeg series?” Um, I have no interest that the Panthers make it to the Stanley Cup finals playing Edmonton again. None. Like none. Zero at all. So there’s the answer to that. Winnipeg and Dallas. It’s interesting. The one thing we can say about Florida right now is that our fear that we weren’t going to be able to score goals is kind of gone away. The offense has definitely woken up. Except the four goals a game is a problem. But if I’m if you ask me who I’m rooting for, I’d rather see Dallas win that. Why is there no video of Marian’s mom reacting to the winner yet? K says Reagan needs to work on his shooting accuracy. Yeah, that’s it’s bad. It’s bad. Um, like I said, he got married, now he can’t shoot straight. Dana says, “The Jets aren’t willing to lose this series yet. They might be bringing a bigger problem for Dallas than expected. We might be seeing an Edmonton Winnipeg conference final.” Wouldn’t that be something? Matthew, I do not like crabs. Well, I should take that back. I don’t dislike crabs, but I don’t go out of my way to catch them or um or eat them. It’s too much work. Bluefish are okay if you eat them the day that you catch them. They’re a little bloody. They get a little bit of a strong taste. I kind of like the whiter fish a little bit more. Like mackerel is about as oily as I like my fish. But if you if you fry up the blue fish the the day you get them, they’re pretty good. They’re certainly I wouldn’t throw them away if I was hungry. But bluefish, yeah, I used to catch all day. trying to read Simon. Um, oh, do I throw them back or deal with them? So, so most of like if I give a bass, I throw it back. The carp, you throw it back. The perch, every once in a while, I’ll keep if it’s a day where I’m catching some goodiz perch, I’ll keep them and fry them up in coconut oil. They’re really good. Hey, thank you. MJ, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. MJ says, “World headlines, we have a new pope, Leo the 14th. He’s from your home. from your town in Chicago. Yeah. India and Pakistan agree to a ceasefire. Earthquakes in Tennessee and Georgia. Taylor Swift subpoenaed in the Black Lively case. Jeez, I’m glad I don’t pay attention. I didn’t all I’m glad I don’t pay attention. Like I said, you’re talking about India and Pakistan. They’d be dropping the nukes and I’d have to come here and get my news and find out about it. Like Jaws, why are you live? the the the nukes are going to be dropped in a half hour. I didn’t know. Yeah, that’s that’s a that’s that’s the it’s it’s the uh Pope Taylor Swift crossover mythical. Thank you again, MJ. Thank you, Matthew. Wow, I’m picky. Well, um, I grew up eating because my dad, you know, we would go fishing to the pier every weekend, Matthew. And back then, we would have fish no matter what, four times a week, sometimes five times a week because we’d catch so much fish during the week. So, you I acquired a taste and being a little bit picky. Baltu, how you doing, bud? Ryan Reynolds. Yeah, Ryan Reynolds, right? Wife. Yeah. Well, oh, here we go. RC says, “Here’s the hoping the Cats find a found sauce and didn’t shoot their whole energy in one game.” I mean, we’ve seen them we’ve seen them play like this before, right? was where where they got to in the second period. The third period, we shut him down and the puck. I mean, Bob makes the save and he’s just clearing it out and it puts it right off of Seth Jones and and in the net. And that’s the only reason that game went to overtime. I I believe I think we would have held them down. We were doing a damn good job. And that gives me a lot of hope for if the s if the tide of the series has turned. And it could have just been that the team realized, hey, we’re down 02 and now we’re down, you know, three to one in the game and like, so are we done? Like they might have just as a collective, as a group just been like, are we done? Do we quit or not? Because one more goal for Toronto in that situation is pretty much over, right? They go up 4-1 and there was a few minutes there a couple minutes there after they made it 3-1 where it’s like aha you know because at 4-1 I start lifting and it’s like well not good MJ yeah the game the game three definitely gave us a massive boost of confidence Toronto’s good I think Toronto’s better than these players thought they were going to be that I mean that definitely to me seems like what some of what’s going on. And we got to stop we got to stop giving up leads, right? I mean, I know last night the way, you know, they scored the game tying goal technically. I mean, Bob makes a save, you know. Silva says if it’s 4-1, we start shaving the playoff beards. It’s funny, Silva. When as I after after I lifted when they made a 3-1 and I walked around and I was sitting down, as I was walking past Donna, that’s what she says. She says, “Well, at least you’ll get to shave your beard soon so it won’t be all big and bushy.” That’s the exact comment that she made. I was like, “Yeah, you know what I mean.” D says, “Oh, you’re talking about Blake Lobby. Gotcha. Yeah, I don’t watch any of the I don’t watch any of the shows. I haven’t to here. I’ll I’ll date myself really quick. The last TV show that I watched like we’re going to sit down and watch a show. It’s like on a regular basis. The last TV show I watched like that was Ali Mciel. That’s that’s how long ago I stopped watching television. through my eyes. Does he have an opinion on the studio panel on TBS or quality coverage during the game specifically the camera the zoomed in camera angles that miss most of the puck movement. What I can say is we don’t hear all all a whole lot of the commentary a lot of times because we’re streaming. But what what irritates the hell out of me is the production managers of these broadcasts and it’s across the board. You’ll hear the crowd screaming and yelling over something’s going on. there’s like a scrum going on and they’ll just be showing a picture of some random player just like skating back to the bench that has nothing to do with the what the crowd is getting agitated about and it takes them forever. It takes them forever to switch to the new camera. That that’s my biggest gripe is the production managers are they’re terrible. Hey MJ, thank you bud. He says, “Should we do a Tom Graci style raid on Steve Dangle streams?” Would he What do he notice? What do he notice? Like, and I and I I say that with love, but like if he’s got like 5,000 people and a hundred of us raided his channel, like, would he even see it? You know what I mean? Like, the raid usually is only successful in in reverse where we’ve got a 100 people and all of a sudden 2,000 show up. Like I don’t know if they would even see us. They might. And I don’t know. Trey says Jaws was Lucy Lou early. I was on Lucy. No comment. No comment there. Not at all. Not at all. No problem there at all. Yeah. Ali Mc. That’s how old. Yeah. That’s the long That’s the last show that I watched on a regular basis. Yep. Also says, “You think the Panthers could close it in six? Did the Panthers play better overall? You’re from Finland, so I can’t watch them play that much since the games are played at night.” Gotcha. It was two games last night. It was two games. Uh it it was three to one Leafs in the second period and it looked bad and then something changed whether it’s the I mean Maurice made some changes the team figured it out however you want to word it but then for the rest of the game the Panthers look like the Panthers playing shut down defense and two defenseman back and not making stupid mistakes. If they can play like that they got to get game four. They got to get game four and they got to keep getting some bounces. But do I think we can win it in six? That’s a tall task. That’s a tall task cuz that that means we’d have to beat Toronto in the the first time where they could be eliminated. And this Toronto team seems different to me. I would think that if we got it to 3-2 lead, I would think it wouldn’t surprise you to see us lose game six at home and then win game seven on the road. I don’t know either one of these two teams is going to get eliminated the first time out, which generally means a game seven, right, Simon? I think I’m at 75%. I think I’m at 75%. Don is at like 88%. right now. But mainly that’s because I picked I picked Montreal because I’m a smartass. MJ says Dango doesn’t know most of us anyway. Yeah, he didn’t he said he didn’t know who I was. So that’s cool. Trey said who is who is fake Ali Mciel fan. Yeah, we can’t get our ahead of ourselves, right? MJ Danny says, “Yeah, he wouldn’t notice at all.” Right. Pro. Unfortunately. Unfortunately. Real says, “I had us winning in six, but I didn’t think we’d lose both to start. So, if we win the series, it’s going to be seven.” I agree. Hi, babe. Donna, what’s Donna agreeing with? seven. Hey, Andrew. Oh, yeah. Donna. Oh, she you’re talking about your uh your bracket. Yeah, 88%. Yeah, she’s uh she she’s she’s very vocal about having such a good bracket. It’s very interesting. Uh, it’s a shame that she picked it’s really a shame that she picked Washington to beat Florida in the next round because I thought we were gonna get married, but apparently not. So, hey, thank you MJ. Thank you, bud. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. MJ says, “Another one you brought up. Ali Mciel, if you could bring back anyone’s show for a reboot, which one would it be?” Um, cheers. Cheers. That’s an easy call for me, but that’s my age group. Cheers. Give Just get Just give me Norm all day long. Yeah. Cheers. Exactly, David. Yeah, just one at a time, right? Uh yeah. Cheers. Cheers. Was that was such an easy show to watch. Yeah. Leia. Leia. Leia. I’m happy to report this, although I won’t tell you all the exact circumstances. Leia for um she laid on her bed last night for a while instead of being in the bed with us. It was shocking. It was shocking. David says, “Yeah, sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name, but if that’s a pub, then you need a but great show.” MJ, you went you went to the beer where where Cheers was filmed in Boston. That’s cool. Yeah, send me a picture. That’s cool. Balsier says, “Lundell seems like he’s having a great playoffs when looking at the points. He’s been getting better and better and better.” I mean, we signed him to that contract. Has good Bennett insurance. Hopefully Bennett resigns. That’s all we could say. Yeah. Through my norm. It’s a doggy dog world out there and I’m wearing milk and underwear. Yeah. Oh, you met Ted Dansen and Mary Zenber and at the Ah, I just lost my chat. That’s very cool. Yeah, that’s very cool. By Yeah, because he’s playing on that third line, right, David? Your favorite show was Frasier and that Yeah, that came from that came from Cheers, right? Sat at Norm spot. That’s cool. Yeah, I never been I never been to Boston. I never been to Boston, so it is that’s okay. I’m not looking for any road trips right now. Guitaro says, “Still waiting for that one or two game.” Yeah, the Maurice style. I Well, I think that’s what we saw in the second half of that game except the fact that we scored three goals, right? But once we made it 43, we we shut it down. I know. I know they tied the game, but it was such a fluke. Oh, gated truth. Your favorite show was in Living Color. So, when I was in the Air Force at tech school, it it’s like basically like college, but you’re in the military. We’d be in the recck room most nights and and it would be it would be the Simpsons and then it would be in living color. Hey, Robert. How you doing, bud? He says, “Sorry, boys. We’re all done fooling around with you. 5-1 Leafs tomorrow and we’re done in five. Wow. Wow. Robert with the with the coahones. Damn. Butter me up a little bit first before they’re going to smack me around. Oh man. Yeah. Fire Marshall and Living Color. That was a great show. I wrote a song about it. One here. Here it goes. Yep. Oh, that’s cool. Robert, it’s fun to have confidence in your team, right, Robert? You guys You was right there. You know, the series was right there. You had a 3-1 lead in we we handed it to you. We literally said, “Here, you guys want this? You guys want this?” And you said, “Nah, we’ll we’ll save it for another time.” H I’m just saying, you know, that’s like letting the Chiefs off the mat. You know what I mean? It’s like leading the Chiefs by two touchdowns and then you throw a pick six when you didn’t even need to be throwing the ball. Simon says, “This is my favorite music group.” Oh, that’s easy. It’s Holland Oats. Holland Oats. Matchbox 20. Elton John. Standard standard issue older stuff. Anything from the 70s, the OJ’s, Temptations, Spinners. I like the Spinners a lot. Billy Paul. What’s my finals prediction? Well, my my bracket I’m not I don’t you know, it’s funny. My bracket is Panthers and either the Jets or the Knights. And the reason why I don’t remember is because I don’t remember who I did first and then I screwed it up and I redid it and I did the other team and I don’t remember if the final bracket was was Vegas or Jets. I think it was Winnipeg. I think I originally picked Vegas and then I accidentally screwed up that bracket and had to pick it back and I think the second one was was Winnipeg. Your mom worked for the Simpsons, Andrew. That’s cool. That’s cool. Robert says, “Oh, you guys brought it in the second. Too much for the Leafers.” Well, we’ll see. Game four is huge, man. If we get that series tied, MJ Yeah, the Chiefs probably go through a real rebuild at some point here. She was working at the bank machine. Okay. Oh, Led Zeppelin. That’s a good one. Yeah. I thought Kelsey was ready to retire. Dave’s got Van Halen. Doors Aussie MJ’s YouTube Van Halen was good. Poison the Who. David Rat, Dawan Rat. That’s the group I was talking about. Yeah, Dan. Uh, Don and I were talking about that the other day. I couldn’t remember the name of the other group. It was like Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot, and Rat. That was that was the other Yeah. when the the the circus would come to town in my neighborhood and the the the rides would all play the would all play the hard rock music and that was that you you they play that album over and over again like for two weekends in a row. I remember that. Think Reed’s going to retire. He’s got to retire at some point, right? What do we got? Hey, thank you again, MJ. Thank you again. So, Donna says it’s Winnipeg versus my finals can’t be Winnipeg. No, no, no. That’s that’s in the Western Conference. We’re talking Stanley Cup. Stanley Cup, babe. The next one or or is it not allowed to see it? Thank you. MJ says, “Here we go. Which past band would I have loved to see in per Prince?” I Prince Dana says Ronnie Vanzant, right? Oh, Patel. Cinderella, too. I worked with a guy that played drums for the Scorpions. He would he was the fill-in drummer, and every once in a while, he’d have to fill in while they were doing a show. Whenever he would walk into work, we would all go, “Walk me like a hurricane.” He didn’t think it was funny. Oh, the Beatles, right? Yeah. Prince. For me, it would be Prince. Yeah. MJ, Beatles, John Lennon, George Harrison. Yeah, Tom Petty’s a good one, Andrew. That’s a good one. You saw Prince twice. Yeah. Oh, so who’s my favorite character on the Simpsons? Oh. Um, that’s a tough one. Thank you. Come again. Boo was pretty good. He was pretty good. I mean, Homer obviously, right? Yeah. I’m trying to think of the names of them. I wasn’t I wasn’t all that crazy about the boss. He was all right. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They can’t have a poo on the show anymore. Geez. You saw You saw Petty seven or eight times. Fantastic. All the mamas and the papas and the monkeys. Now we’re going Now we’re going back to to even my dad’s my dad’s age. Ned Flanders. Yeah. Oh, that’s right. Wiggum. Yeah. Oh, man. Ralph Wiggum’s like the original Cartman. A little bit, right? A little bit. You think they took a little bit of Ralph to make Cartman Mo Mr. Burns apart? Yeah. Ain’t that Oh, that’s not what I meant to do. Marvin says, “It’s funny how Marshian continues to haunt Toronto.” Kind of like how Tavvaris is still haunting the Panthers. It’s not the same lore, obviously, because the Panthers haven’t been as involved. But boy, when when Tavvaris is he he always eats against the Panthers. Real says, “Ralph isn’t a complete cycle like Cartman.” Yeah, I like Cartman’s original voice. I could never get into him after they changed his voice. I am a lost little boy. Can you help me? The Sally Strollers episode. Oh my god. Where she’s hiding all the cheesy poofs? Yeah, David. That’s the one I That’s what I was thinking. The bully kid. I said haha. Yeah. Hey, thank you, MJ. Oh, which season of The Simpsons was the best? Oh god, that one I don’t that’s going to have to be a question. I mean, the early ones were pretty good. I haven’t watched them in years. It’s still going, right? Marvin says, “I need another magical performance from Marshian tomorrow.” No doubt. He You knew he was going to do it, right? I mean, he’s the best player on the ice for us right now. It’s just his energy, his vibe that he’s he’s really helping the fact that Kachchuck is like MIA out there, right? Um, you know, Marian’s really bringing what kind of what Kachchuck did the first year before he got busted in half by Kazar. That’s what we’re getting from Marshand right now. Yeah, he’s saving us for sure. No doubt. Yep. Anything pre 911 Simpsons was excellent. David says, “When Marshy gets the puck, the Leafs get nervous. He’s in their head.” That’s an interesting perspective, but you’re probably not wrong. Probably not wrong there. For sure. Yeah. Kind of like the Bills playing the Chiefs. You know what I mean? A little bit there. Hey, NHL. How am I feeling after the overtime thriller? Well, I already took one nap and I’m probably going to fix to take another one here at some point in the afternoon. But no, we’re good. It had to happen, right? If we go down 03, this is a this is a a we start writing the eulogy together, right? Like if we go down 03, we don’t place the orbituary yet, but we’re writing it. Oh, David, you prefer Family Guy. I never was able to watch a whole lot of that. I never was able to I just I was raising kids and and everything and I just it was kind of when I stopped stopped watching TV. Mo the bartender. Man. Yeah. Marvin, hoping hoping we can clean up the odd man rushes. I think we’ve got it figured out. Keeping two men back is what for the main part we needed to do. Says I have no demons for Marshia. No. Interesting. Coot says the does the goal mean Vhagen can bring his swag back? He needs one. He needs a snipe. He needs a snipe when we need a goal to get Swaggy back. I believe he his shot percentages have been so bad. Yeah. South Park. South Park was was crazy. The earlier one earlier ones, I mean, they’re still good, but when that show first happened. Now, the funny thing about South Park was that we had we had a rule in my house when my when I live, you know, with my ex-wife and the kids were young. And the rule was anybody was allowed to say anything in the house if it was from a movie or a TV show. Okay? Anything, whatever it was, if you had a smartass comment, if the line was from a movie, it was acceptable no matter what. So that allowed me to walk around the house singing the Kyle’s Mom is a big fat [ __ ] song. And she couldn’t say anything. She couldn’t say anything. It’s allowed. Totally legal. Totally legal. It’s It’s a true story. Oh man. Yep. Good old South Park. Bob’s Burgers. Yeah, that’s an old one, too. Carmen has some good ones, man. I remember seeing the movie. It was just like, holy crap. American Dad. That’s another good one. Oh, Simon. I mean, I I don’t I haven’t I would have to just roll with Stewie. Um I I I can’t even count on one hand how many Family Guy episodes I’ve I’ve watched. I just I just never by that by the time that happened I was kneede in work and raising kids and everything like that. Rick and Morty was um my dad liked Rick and Morty. When the kids were young, they’d spend the weekends at my parents house sometimes. Well, Friday nights and they’d watch Rick and Morty and my dad would get a kick out of that. Hey Dietrich, did I see any specials that came out during the pandemic? No. No. I was I was living with Karen at that point and I it wasn’t her style of humor. She was a little bit too little bit too uppidity for that style of humor. And so I guess I just not I didn’t end up watching it. What time we got here? Yeah, South Park. I’ve seen Oh, good. We’re late. That’s good. Yeah, I saw bits and pieces of the COVID special. That was a weird time, man. Such a weird time. Marvin says, “I think Kachchuck’s injury is still bugging him for sure.” Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. No doubt. No doubt. Um he’s given us what he’s got. I mean, nobody can doubt the man. But whenever whenever whenever a serious season is over, he’s going to have to have surgery. And honestly, we just need to lock him away somewhere where he just gives his body a year a whole year off. It’ll never happen. He’ll probably rush to try to be ready for game one. But I hope not. He needs to sit the whole year. No Olympics, nothing. Just just rest your body, man. So, all right, everybody. I’m gonna get ready to roll. Gonna get ready to roll. Much much appreciation. All the super chats, everybody hanging out. Thank you all you guys. What makes all the Oh, we got one more from from MJ before I roll here. Says, “Thank you, buddy. Which Panthers player should get their own TV show?” Marian Marian, right? You see Kachchuck, you say Kachchuck. Um, Marian for me. Lewango. I know he’s not a a player, but Lewango’s got that that dry sense of humor a little bit. Barkoff would be a good straight man on a TV show. Like Mar like Marian and Barkoff as a cop show. Marshed and Barkoff as a cop show at two, you know, police, right? Right. They’re partners. That that that that could that could that could have some legs to it. That could have some legs to it. Anybody else? Trying to think. Can’t have Eblad. He’s too serious. Borsing’s too serious. Schmidt would be a good like guest. Schmidt could be like the uh the chief. Schmidt’s the police chief and Barkoff and Marian are the cops and Barkoff’s this big strapping serious dude and Marian’s the little guy that’s always trying to get them into trouble. Yeah. Yeah. Schmid he’s got he’s ball. He’s Yeah. He he he could easily age into the chief role. Yeah. And he’s he’s funny. Yeah. The stick would be that Schmidt pretends to be all serious when they’re around, but then when Barkoff’s not around, Schmidt will get Marshian to tell him to do things that’s going to get Bark off get Barkoff going, right? And Barkov like tries to get mad and angry about it, but he’s just so he’s just so serious and so dry that you never know if he’s really bitching and complaining or if if he’s, you know, trying to be funny his himself. Yeah. Yeah. Rodriguez got a good personality, too. Chucky. Yeah. A Starski and Hutch. Right. Then Schmid and Neck would be doing blue shoes in the back of the police station. Oh, poor Chucky. Yeah, poor Ecklad’s never gonna live that down. She’s never going to live it down. All right, everybody. I got to go. I’m gonna get some lunch. Sit with Donna for a few hours. We will be live tonight for Caps and Canes. Okay, just everybody bring a blanket. Bring a blanket because during Okay, I feel bad for Donna. We get to watch our team just be exciting and she has to watch two to one boring hockey every night. But we’ll be there. We’ll be there. We’ll have some fun. We’ll see if we can get Kyle drunk. Thanks for all the super chats. Thanks for all the love. And we will see you in a few hours. Yeah. Four and a half

It’s not bizarre, there’s a publicly released internal memo from a few years ago where Colin Campbell is instructing officials to give less penalties to his son (Asst GM of the Panthers).
No sports journalist dared to loudly call out the league for that, but if he felt comfortable putting that in writing, it’s safe to assume that tampering with officiating is fairly common in this league.
It's abundantly clear that the league has instructed the refs to let violence happen against Florida's opponents. Making Leafs fans angry is the point, it drives engagement.
Uh ohhhh did Toranto just crack the door for us Cats…? I think sooo 😉😎 LF rolllllll Panthers.
I have hypothetical question, I love Bob , I named my rescue cat after him, lol. If we lose to Toronto, is there any chance we buy out Bob?? We don't have a decent backup tho. If anyone in chat can clarify,much appreciated.GO CATS!!!!!
Still kinda weird hearing Marchand wins it for the Panthers 😂
Marchand not only helping cats on the ice, but more importantly in locker room.
Eric,… every game must be treated as a Game #7. Go Panthers!
