00:00Eastside Dave, Quick Sports, what do you got, man?
00:02Well, we are going to actually start with hockey because the Dave man doesn't want to get ahead of himself, guys,
00:09but I think the New Jersey Devils are going to the Stanley Cup Finals.
00:12Stop it.
00:13The team won again last night.
00:15That's like eight in a row, isn't it?
00:16Yeah, the Devils took down the Flames 3-2 and are now 10-3 for the season.
00:23They are on fire.
00:25Hell of a start.
00:25It's been a great start.
00:27Nico Heshire had an assist and the ultimate game-winning goal in the third period
00:32as the Devils are really firing on all cylinders.
00:36It's very exciting when the Devils are in there.
00:38Especially since they didn't make the playoffs last year.
00:40Last couple of years.
00:41One of two teams who didn't make the playoffs.
00:43And they've gotten out to kind of good starts, but only after five or six games,
00:50they have gone downhill quickly these last two seasons.
00:54But now it's 13 games in, and the Devils are 10-3.
00:58This is a good thing.
00:59The Rangers lost to the Islanders 4-3.
01:02The Islanders outscored the Rangers three goals to none in the third period to win the game.
01:10The Flyers dominated the Blues 5-1.
01:13Phillies' Noah Cates had a goal and an assist in the Flyers' win.
01:17Basketball, no NBA games yesterday because it was Election Day.
01:22And NBA Commissioner Adam Silver believes his players and the people in general should be participating in the voting process.
01:30So no games yesterday, but the NBA resumes this evening.
01:35The Knicks take on the Nets in a battle for New York at the Barclays Center.
01:40Those are always fun games to watch.
01:42And the 76ers inactive tonight, but they'll take on the Hawks in Atlanta tomorrow.
01:47Football, a huge blow for the New York football Giants.
01:51Oh, God.
01:53G-Man just lost their defensive captain and play caller, Xavier McKinney,
01:58to what they're calling a freak accident when McKinney overturned on an ATV in Cabo.
02:05Oh, my God.
02:06You've got to be kidding me.
02:07The Giants bye week.
02:08You've got to be while on vacation?
02:11While on the bye week.
02:13Oh, my God.
02:14Why does this keep happening to the Giants?
02:16And JPP blew up his hand.
02:19So.
02:19And, you know, like when you're on vacation, if you're a football player, just like go to the beach.
02:25Don't do anything like that.
02:27What are you doing?
02:29You know, sit on the sand.
02:30Go in the water.
02:31But what are we doing?
02:32And apparently it was like it was a very rough and tough like ATV course with cliffs.
02:39Stupid.
02:39And all this like hills and stuff.
02:42Stupid.
02:43So that really sucks.
02:45Doesn't that break his contract?
02:45Isn't there something in your contract against that if you're a football player?
02:48There used to be.
02:49I don't know.
02:49I mean.
02:50There used to be.
02:50Let me tell you this.
02:51If any of my football jets are listening right now, and I'd be surprised if you were.
02:56But if you are, please take it easy this bye week.
02:59Can you please?
02:59I mean, just relax.
03:01It's okay to go to Cabo, I suppose, but just stay on the beach.
03:05Go in the ocean.
03:06Have a tequila at the side of the, you know, at the pool.
03:10That's.
03:10You're not going to get injured just having a margarita at the side of the pool, right?
03:15Well, if you're a chess player, you just get a hooker and then you just get robbed.
03:18Isn't that like the last one?
03:19Right.
03:20Well, he was a very special case.
03:22Yeah.
03:23With the marijuana in the backseat and all that.
03:25Oh, that was tremendous.
03:26And then baseball, you want to know.
03:29Seven kids from eight women or something like that.
03:30Hey, baby.
03:30You got to do what you got to do.
03:31Baseball.
03:32You want to know how many people hate the Houston Astros?
03:36The ratings just came out.
03:37This year's World Series is the second lowest rated fall classic ever.
03:42Yeah.
03:42No doubt.
03:42These six games averaged around 11.7 million viewers, way down.
03:47Game six was played opposite several college football games, including Alabama, LSU and
03:52Clemson, Notre Dame.
03:54Yeah.
03:54But at the same time, you can't find a rotisserie chicken anywhere in Philadelphia.
03:57So, you know.
03:58Yeah.
03:59And don't play like that.
04:00You guys are the ones who scheduled it for Saturday to go against college football.
04:05And everyone was saying, what is the deal with the scheduling of the World Series?
04:09Everyone was down on it.
04:10So, it's MLB's fault that it went against college football anyway.
04:14So, you know what?
04:15Again, baseball, their commissioner needs to get his act together because he's driving
04:20these ratings down.
04:21That's a quick look at sports.
