00:00I want to know what you think of the remaining games that are left.
00:04And at the end of the day,
00:06I just don't see how they can deny this guy McDavid a cop.
00:10At some point, he reminds me of Lemieux and, you know,
00:13Gretzky and Crosby and Patrick Kane and all the greats.
00:18Iserman, the great players always get it done.
00:21Messier, they always end up getting the cop.
00:23There's no way this guy's going to keep losing, is he?
00:27All right.
00:28I agree with three of the four things you said.
00:30And I don't necessarily disagree with the fourth, by the way,
00:32which is the main topic here.
00:34Oilers deserve a lot of respect because it's not so much McDavid and Dreissel.
00:38Listen, they're great.
00:39You and I have been around forever, right?
00:40These are top five, top ten players all the time.
00:43They're fantastic.
00:43They're great.
00:44Awesome.
00:45I just had a hard time getting through my head that they're going to win a cup
00:49with Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard.
00:53And I still can't get that through my head, although they have played fantastic.
00:57They keep having shutouts.
00:58And they're playing fantastic here.
01:00But coming into the playoffs, all right, I had whoever won Dallas, Colorado,
01:05and whoever won Tampa, Florida, they were going to meet in the cup.
01:09All right.
01:10And I thought Colorado would beat Dallas, by the way.
01:11I did because Dallas did not have Robertson, did not have Heskinen.
01:14They're both back now.
01:15I'm going to stick with Dallas here, although Everton, I guess if I was a fan of Dallas,
01:20I would say Everton scares the life out of me, you know, that sort of thing.
01:23You won't see me have heavy bets on Dallas.
01:25I'm going to assume Dallas beats Winnipeg, by the way, even tomorrow or a day after.
01:29Yeah.
01:29Or Game 7.
01:30So I'll assume that.
01:31And I think Everton's going to give them a hell of a series.
01:33I think it will go six, seven games.
01:35I just think two things.
01:36One, Dallas is the better overall team, one to 20.
01:40All right.
01:40They have the better goals, and Everton's have played well.
01:42Offense may not be as top heavy as Everton, but it's good.
01:45They can roll three, four lines at you.
01:47Defense is definitely better.
01:48The fact that Robertson and Heskinen get more time to get NHL ready,
01:53because there's no way you're missing all the time Heskinen missed,
01:56and all the time Robertson missed a couple of weeks, and you're ready for NHL play.
01:59If you're just not, I think they'll be better the longer we go on here.
02:03The East, I read it the exact same as you.
02:04I think Florida's the better team.
02:06I think Toronto lost this game in Game 3.
02:09As soon as Florida made it 2-1, that series was over.
02:11All right.
02:12They collapsed.
02:12They fall like a deck of cards.
02:14They didn't show up in game.
02:14That was an embarrassment in Game 5.
02:16You can't do that.
02:17During the offseason, they got a lot of decisions to make.
02:20You're going to sign Marner.
02:21You're going to sign Tavares.
02:23What are you going to do with Matthew Neese here?
02:24Who's going where?
02:25No, they got to let these guys go.
02:27But Gabe, by the way, talking to Gabe last night,
02:29he thinks Marner's going your way.
02:30He thinks Marner's going to go with Pittsburgh.
02:32Yeah.
02:32And I got to admit, that makes a lot of sense for the Penguins
02:36who have to go for it.
02:37I heard you're going to be the Penguins coach.
02:40I heard that they're talking to you under the table
02:42for George to be the new Penguin coach
02:45because nobody else, all the other ones,
02:47Tockett, and they've all, you know,
02:49Quenville, all these guys have taken jobs.
02:52And Pittsburgh, like, you know,
02:55they're talking to DJ Smith or whatever his name is
02:58that used to be in Ottawa.
03:01I'll jump off the building if they hire that guy.
03:04I'd rather they hire the Wiltsbury guy.
03:06I just want to say this about the Jets to you.
03:09Have you ever seen a team win a Stanley Cup
03:11that can't win a road playoff game?
03:14Not that I can remember.
03:16All right?
03:16And we know it's not going to happen.
03:17It's a joke.
03:19They've lost eight straight on the road here.
03:21And we're not talking to losing 0-3-2-2
03:23and they're close.
03:23They're getting blown out.
03:25These games aren't even competitive.
03:26That's why I assume, once again,
03:28and listen, you can make a pretty good argument
03:30that Jets have been the better team
03:32for the last five periods.
03:33So maybe they can transfer that over to game six.
03:35But if they don't score the first goal,
03:38I don't think they have a chance.
03:39If a goal, let's say that,
03:41oh, that's a shaky goal.
03:42I think Hellebuck's confidence is gone again.
03:43Hard to see them winning three straight games
03:45against Dallas.
03:46By hard, I mean next to impossible.
03:48I think Dallas takes care of business in game six.
