The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz - Local Hour: Meadowlark Media Mixer™

Episode Date: June 6, 2023

The Vegas Knights are pretty good, huh? Roy is angry about the Panthers lack of fight...or maybe too much fight...or maybe it's just that he might not get to go on a free trip to Vegas. Billy has been keepin' an eye on the Marlins and thinks they deserve more of our attention. Then, the weather in South Florida is legitimately impacting our ability to do our jobs, Greg Cote doesn't like to get his hair wet, and we brainstorm how to purchase a LeBaJet. Plus, Amin has made some promises he may not be able to keep on a Meadowlark Media Mixer, and Randy Moller joins us to break down the Stanley Cup Final and dish out his own Top 5 Goal Calls of All-Time.

All very old songs, all very old movie references Randy Moeller is going to join us at 930 here live on YouTube and we will discuss with him when the Stanley Cup final will finally start. We're waiting. We're waiting for it to start Roy. I don't know how you feel about this. The idea that you do that. Well, this part, this part, it's not just losing. It's that all these hockey games are close and oh my god, they've been outscored 12 to

four, which basically wasn't even the difference between the Panthers and the entire Carolina series. Hockey games this time of year or not, we lose seven to two because Vegas is doing that to everybody. Since the game was tied at two two and game one, Vegas is scored nine to one. that's when the score. I'm seeing a lot of I'm feeling a lot of wasted goals It's like did they need that many I feel like the now they're due to have a letdown Everything's fine. The series hasn't started yet. Call me crazy. Call me crazy. Yeah crazy I'm more confident in the Panthers winning the championship crazy Really? Yeah. I mean, you guys are looking at me like, like if the heat lose game three and the panthers

win game three, you guys are all going to be agreeing with me. Like we just got to get game three. I agree with you. They've put themselves in a spot where they got to get game three. But if they do, everything's fine. Don't panic. The four series in road A said that. That I said what? That you're more confident in the band. Well, I have they want to be right up. I mean, seriously.'re more confident in the I will have they want a right I mean seriously Yeah, it's just I I just feel more confident in this panthers team I think that they're closer to Las Vegas than the heat ultimately are if we're looking at the rosters than the heat are to the nuggets

I just I'm not gonna panic the series hasn't started yet. I understand Bob seems to have lost the hot glove terrible And I don't know what we do here. I don't have the answers. Well, Billy and Sugaz told you what to do here. They were, they were pressing it yesterday. Yeah. We mock them. Yeah. This is what happens every time with pioneers, with people who dare to discover. We mock them. Yeah. And they said bench bob before the game. I mean, nobody would have done worse than seven goals. This is not the time to ride the guys who got you here. It is time to play the And they said bench bob before the game, I mean, nobody would have done worse than seven goals. This is not the time to ride the guys who got you here.

It is time to play the guys who are going to get you through the finish line. All right. Get you over the finish line when you the Stanley Cup. Okay. You don't have time. Before you think of it, it's going to be too late. You'll be down three, oh three, nothing third period series over. Two guts with the rare second guest.

That was the first guest. That was the first guest that was Astonite. But what has happened in this series is, oh, the playoffs stink when you don't have the hot goal. Like, you could chuck it 30 minutes in penalties last night. Yes. Or was it 20? Yeah, guys playing like a crazy person right now.

We need to settle him down a little. He has a three, 10 minute misconducts in a series before. That's ridiculous. Look, this guy has been, he has been slingshot into hockey super stardom where it's not just a Canadian thing. This guy is having a star turn during the playoffs and now he's just in rage because he liked a lot better when it's like, I'll score the last goal with three seconds. Let's join me. I'll run into the tunnel after ending your season and I'll celebrate away from you because we went all our road games to Holy shit is hard to win in Vegas cuz it's loud and they got jousts and they're goalie us to allow any goals and ours just allowed seven

I'm joust You can't put me in the penalty box. I'm in people magazine But those two moscotics. I don't understand how those happen. Like it didn't make any sense. They didn't put a misconduct on the hit. That hit was perfectly clean. And the last misconduct, you just knocked the stick out of somebody's hand.

Yeah, but dude, I was like, I don't hear. When every time there's a whistle, you're jabbing someone in the neck with your glove. It's like a build up where they're just like, all right dude, we told you 15 times it's not, he's like a kid, where every time the way he's just always jabbing at people, he doesn't think where he like grabs their shoulder pad, but he's like punching them in the neck at the same time.

Chris, they stoned it throwing out misconducts in the second period. I'm just saying. Well, things were getting chipped, too. He was clear. 11 misconducts in that game. 11, he was clearly frustrated. He deserved, like he needed to,

there needed to be a message that he was just being, like crazy, too much being like crazy too much Yeah too much the the broadcasters are even saying or Roy the rest needs to get this under control Or it's gonna be five on five at one point in time because no one's gonna be left in this game Roy Don't like your attitude like Chris is more positive about your team and has more confidence in your team than you do You've been waiting for this forever Roy enjoy it. All right. They're coming home. Roy, they win game three. Hey, hey, come here, buddy. Look at me. Come here. Hey, you want to hug? They're close to him. Hey, you're, you're panicked right now.

I know you want to show us here. Look at them. Roy, you want to put up like a, you know, you start talking about 10 minute majors and all the stuff. Hey, we're good. Miscanax. We're okay. Whatever. Manchester. See, see, see, see, Roy, I'm worried about you because you've gone from wanting all the smoke from every angle to I understand why anyone in the world would be shaken by holy shit 12 to 4 this time of year doesn't really happen in difference

in goals. The games are closed. They're tight. They are these are evenly matched teams and four two periods. Four two periods of this series. It felt like Florida belonged. It has not felt like that the rest of the time. I know what Roy's experiencing or going through right now, I get it. Okay. It just dawned on me. Roy is concerned. He's not going to get his free trip to Vegas. Oh, that's what it is. Game five and game seven. You got it, Stu got you're right that is what's happened to God's fluent in the language of Roy that is Roy is sadder than I've ever seen him as a Panther fan and it is I am angry why they played they they did not have any

fight zero fight zero can chuck at too much yeah too much what was the fight there's too much fighting not a night one was it did the Panthers it too much but yeah too much with the fight with the fight was it did the panthers have too much fun uh... too much fight they have a fight that's how that montault he was bad that was that that was bad that's so bad can you guys please thank you billy i appreciate all your contributions here did you watch the game

yeah i mean as he reading up on the original six no i watch the game but at a certain point i I said, you know what, I've seen enough here. Yeah. Well, by the way, they had two goalies yesterday. They had the one that gave up the four Bob, and then they had the one that gave the three. And I don't know what we do here.

I don't know what it is that we're going to do here. But we've got a crazy show. Who do we turn to? Yeah. We've got a crazy show. Spencer Knight can't come back. Is bombing in from Vegas, and Amin is here, and we're going to have fun for

for the entirety of our show today but I need to expose what's happened here because I see Billy clearly now I haven't before now. I keep trying to get him into heat conversations and Panther conversations and he's just watching sort of bemuse because his love that don't I'm gonna speak for you now, okay? I'm going to speak for you now because I've been very frustrated by this. His love, the beloved Marlins, drag the royals, drag the a's, and he doesn't, I don't think,

I think you're lashing out at everyone on the show, because you don't think it's fair that in the middle of everything happening south florida sports the marlin's have a four hundred hitter a guy who gets five hits a game that no one is paying attention to one about entitled and the marlin's just uh... drag the a's and i think you've got bitterness that makes you uh... worse at work not true more energy at work

i think i'd better work than most people here. I've gotten things wrong. I haven't come in pretending. I know everything. I just say what I see. I call it as I see it. And sometimes I'm right. And sometimes I'm wrong.

I don't pretend to have all these sources and pretend to be these journalisms and all these things going out there and then being wrong about everything. I just call it how I see it. And sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong. And I told you, hey, I'm gonna keep an eye on the more islands for all of us. And I've been doing that.

And I also told you, hey, it's time for them to get fat. And they've been getting fat the past couple of days. They're three games back of the braves. They had back to back for, they overcame a four run deficit, back to back games first times since 2001. I mean, they're hot right now, Dan. They're hot. If the season ended today, they'd be in the playoffs, but it doesn't like today.

But I'm keeping an eye for everyone because there are other playoffs going on, and people can enjoy the Panthers, and people can enjoy the heat. And tomorrow, people can enjoy the Marlins half an hour earlier because they move the game up so that you could see the Marlins and then watch the heat. How about that?

And you mentioned Luis Arraiz hitting 399 right now. People were asking, hey, is he gonna be the first one since Ted Williams hit 400? No, but right now he's hitting 399, which is great. People aren't even asking that. They all people are asking that. That was the buzz on the Interwebs, yes.

You don't ask that's a like August Billy. Well, but what is happening is everything else in South Florida sports is too loud. And last night, this guy's you're gonna need to help me with this because you say the Panthers need to win a game to save their season. It was so loud in Vegas that Devonte Adams was being interviewed and you could not,

he couldn't hear the person asking him the question and you couldn't hear what he was saying. He was so loud enough of that. Okay, he could hear. He could hear. He could hear. But also, Billy, I wanted to get you in on this because you had told us a lot is happening.

And one of our local news affiliates no longer has a sports department. You told us like a month ago, and I'm watching the local reporters are under siege in Vegas because two of them have been like Vegas drunk Vegas fans come and try to interrupt their live shots and you're laughing. That's what happened to Vegas though. I was CBS 4. Yeah, Samantha Rivera, CBS 4 was under attack and she stiffed armed the shit out of someone.

Sorry, I shouldn't have cursed, but yeah, she stiffed, stiffed armed someone right out of the picture. By the way, can we behave everybody? Can we stop harassing people and trying to jump in front of the camera? It's just behave. Clay Ferraro did the same thing. I saw a clip of him, someone tried to get in there with a middle finger. They were all over him. He wasn't really,

he was cool with all the craziness and he saw one middle finger. He was great. He was just like, hey, get that out of here. Get that middle finger out of here. God's work. They're doing. I don't know about that. Roy. Hey, man. Roy, you're defeated. You are not, you are not well. I'm looking at you. And I don't know. Is it because you're vague? You thought on an expensive account. You were going to game five Vegas to make content. Mike is coming back. I, I don't even know that hotel room is alleged to be in Vegas, but we got so little content out of that Did you pay off the kidnappers would happen with that? A mean is back from did we're flying a mean all over the place as a Correspondent and what we've got is him in an alley and and running around

Near the arena and interviewing a Utah Jazz Center none of us had heard of I'm sorry you guys aren't up to date with the future stars of the league. He's not a star future star You called him a star That's because that's how headlines work to gots that's right porn stars and NBA stars That's how it works anything you do. It's a great Cody Tuesday. I said I Haven't gotten anything from Greg Cody on a Greg Cody Tuesday. I would age me. I forgot he was even here. He's exhausted. He's got a day off tonight from the insanity. Your thoughts on the panthers in heat, Greg Cody. Local authority, local expert.

Very, very aggressive. Maybe pink. We should actually...

We should have them throw daisies and call them whoopsie daisies. Oh yeah! Whoopsie daisies! This is the Dalematar Show with the Stu Gats. Music Chris Cody, is there flooding outside of our studio? I'm understanding that we have monsoon conditions between here and the arena.

And this is an area that is prone to flooding. What do you, I mean, why are you shaking your head? I don't know if I'm gonna be able to get to media availability today, because there's a river between us and the freaking arena. This is the most nervous I've ever been driving to work. Like, I could not see in front of me, and yes, there was flooding in the streets, definitely. My dad made me order us an Uber for the three minute walk

from the Bright Line station, because he doesn't like to get his hair wet. The damn right, I don't. Best $6 you ever spent. Thank you for that. The guy showed up on time, he had a beautiful car, unnecessary details. Great leather seats, it was a luxurious ride.

Set the scene, yeah. It was a luxurious ride. Nice. I felt like a king. You look like one today, because your hair's not wet. Thank you, passing all those pedestrians. My peddlers. Did you wave at them?

Open it through the rain. What were you saying? We were standing outside waiting for the Uber and you just saw a bunch of people exiting the train like leaving and what were you were just like people walking. What was it? You were just like narrating. I was calling them by peddlers

Which I love to do Do you What why did you lean back right there? What do you want me to do? Paint the picture. I painted it already. Yeah, I like the seats at all I'm not the only one who does it prefers not to walk in the rain and and the weather we're having you alluded to it then. The weather we're having down here is just like it's it's Armageddon. It's just like the world is coming to an end when it rains. No it's worse. Yeah it's true. These are flood conditions. Look at that window now. The worst you've ever seen it right? Yeah. Yeah. No doubt. Yeah. We

weren't. I had a lake in front of my house a month ago. Now it's an ocean. Well, it isn't, it's dried up. Oh. Global warming. Global warming. Yeah, it is global warming. Climate change. Yeah.

I mean, it is. Yeah. We're getting more rain than ever. And it comes in bursts in our areas, flood areas that you'd never think could flood. And one of them is right between us and the arena good luck with that tomorrow night when the NBA's in tap Do we have the metal like jet ski? Wow, I like that. Yeah, we were talking last segment with all these flights. We're buying maybe we just buy a plane

Wow You know, it's not as long as you go get Mike and Vade There you go, Dan. Yeah, PJ It's my face on it. I'm saying all your money. Let's do the math. Let's do the math on how much we're spending on all these flights. And let's just see if it's a math equation. We'll figure it out.

I like that idea. I like the way you think. What's that cost? A small plane. Any idea? I'm on it. I mean, do you think that hand is hiding from me? Are you of the opinion that I didn't need you? It's shielding for now, though. I did not hear that joke. You, do you, are you of the opinion? Are you of the opinion that everyone around here is so clever that you could sneak that joke past me like I'm not

Bagrovsky? Hey, hey, hey, I don't know what you're talking about, Dan. I'm glad you're here because I have legitimate NBA questions for you. I want to ask you some, no, no. We should buy a plane, a giant plane, just to fit my shoes on. But we're a fledgling network that is getting up off its knees and live for one hour now and hopefully some some some time soon live and On a network and fully functioning. We are on a network the draft Kings Network Also, draftking network draft Kings Network dot com. You can stream live. I do it on my TV every morning when I'm not here

DKN well said I mean East know about what he's doing He's still enjoying his joke that a giant airplane would make it be giant or if it was my face on the side I think you just wanted your face on the side so people would know that it was your plane I don't think it was you're making fun you. Also, the nicest planes, then, everyone knows is the wide body. You know, that's the one with the lay flat seats. Oh, yes.

Yes. Leba Jet. He's right. Shokater! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. No, man, that's not a shokater, cool. Leba Jet, I think there's something to be said there. Yeah.

Is it a capital J or not? show, it's killing cool. LeBajet, I think there's something to be said there. Yeah. Is it a capital J or not? Oh my God. Ben, Benning. I'm with you, Greg. We can be like, to the LeBajet. And then we all just run up to the rooftop. It sounds better when you do it that way.

It does. He's Batman. To the LeBajet. Yeah. I think the Elser, which is where we are, I think they probably have a hella pad up top, right? They probably have, you could probably land helicopters on top of this hotel.

Let me, I should probably have asked this in the pre-show meeting, or at any other time other than live on air on YouTube. But should we throw like a media mixer on Thursday? A lot of people were asking, like, oh, you guys throwing anything. And I said, I don't know. No, no, you're just coming and throwing parties and having Dan pay for it.

You want to hang out with the media, just say, let's me at this bar. No, but that's where we're hosting this. Let's call it a mixer. We're hosting this, man. Like, we're hosting what? The finals. The heater hosting. It's your life, Dan, just people coming up with ideas that cost you money.

Yes. Yes. Sorry. Build an airport near here. That's a good thing. Put a landing strip on Bayfront Park right at Closer Street. Buy more things. Yes, that's the solution to everything. Either more things or more people. Roy was objecting to the day that I picked out. I'm like, what's wrong? I just look a nice off day. He's like, that's came through the Stanley Cup finals. I'm not going to be here.

I'm going to be at three. Roy doesn't want to miss that's came through the Stanley Cup finals. I'm not gonna be here. I'm gonna be at three minutes. Roy doesn't want to miss out on the free booths. But here, oh God damn right. I mean, it's right. You have to understand. I mean is basketball, royalty, gritty, inside the machine, and the finals coming to your town is a big deal. Miami's supposed to be a place

where it's right across from us. We probably should be doing something because this is a big party that's coming to town here, a pretty important time, and the heat are, you know, kind of close to becoming the biggest upset in the history of the sport. And by the way, not for nothing, but like if we want to like improve our relationship with Sports League, this is a great opportunity to get all the NBA people over here. They like free stuff too. Well, we are having a mixer.

It's just tomorrow during game three. So it's not ideal for the media types. Unless they want to come and just mix it up with us. Billy, that's not a dollar shave club. I'm glad, first of all, I'm ecstatic that Dollar Shave Club is doing this. I think it's great that the fans who can't go to the game have somewhere to come to feel close to it,

feel that energy. That's going to be awesome. I wish I could be here. Sadly, I have to be at the actual game working. But the other sad part about it is the people that we want to impress, you know, like league office types. They're all going to, we don't want to impress them. We want to entertain the fans.

We want to impress the league office types. Bring them over here, show them our digs, show them what we're doing. And maybe next time, we can get a couple more credentials and maybe get a little better access to things instead of me walking around in alleys and running outside and going to sports bars. So this is all about having a mixer

so you have better access the next time. No, we all have better access. Billy, we're all a team. I don't see us as a team. It is all an angle for a mean to have an expense account and throw a good time, feel good party at the NBA, during a big time and a fun time for the heat, for the league, celebrating its sport. And I mean, I have basketball questions.

I want to ask you, beyond parties you want to play with 12 hours of notice before you get to that, I do want to point out that in my mind's eye. Is this still not for nothing? No, it's for everything now. Okay. In my mind's eye, we would have this thing on the beautiful pool deck here at the Elser where we got that bar and it's overlooking the bay and all that stuff. And everyone would be down there, Dan would be down there, two guys would be down there, Greg.

So a watch, opposite the one we're actually doing. No, this is not an off day. This is an off day. This would essentially be a Panthers watch party. We could do that to NBA mixer. We could do that too, could put the Panthers game on. But Dan, here's the thing.

I want everybody down there, Billy, Chris, Roy, we'll Roy won't be here because we'll be at the game. I'll be at the game. Oh yeah, everybody, he'll be at the game. Well, he's actually gonna be. Yeah, that's the game. Oh, yeah, everybody will be at the game. Well, that would be fine. That would be fine. But I want everybody who's not alone drinking.

No, I want to come downstairs in a Hugh Hefner bathrobe. Yes. Welcome. Oh, you guys are here now? Oh, yes. Welcome, please. It's like a Keen's in Yada for you. Like, what is this?

What's happening? What's happening? What's happening? Yeah. Vervant. That's right, happening? Yeah. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Yeah, all the ideas around here are can we have a giant expense account to throw a big party? You did say it wouldn't be a bad idea. You got him spend money to make work. We're doing one in win wood How does that make us money? It doesn't make us money. You drink our money I drink your money. It makes it makes us plenty of money guys. You're not paying attention here No, you're not paying attention Yeah, exactly Chris you bring the NBA elites here.

Right. That raises our profile. If so, facto. Mm-hmm. Big business. Spent 10 grand on the front end. And that'll come back 10 fold. Well, I don't want to name numbers quite yet, Chris.

You know, it might be 10. But I don't want you to ask my people. You know what's funny about hit the math that Chris Cody more this is this is uh... what is uh... what is tenfold Chris Cody does have to say ten times Chris Cody does have a good idea because that is the business strategy i read this uh... jimmy butler's coffee brand he's like

in in the bubble he was able to sell coffee because millionaires wanted coffee for $20 a cup and he's like, why can't I sell a $100 cup of coffee? And really, you can go to all your business schools, but if you're capable of selling a $100 cup of coffee, what is it, is it a big-face coffee? Yes. Did he steal that copy right from me? From your plane, yeah.

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. It is a bit of a jerk move. I hope to be the first $100 cup of coffee. Did he steal that copy right from me? From your plane, yeah. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. It is a bit of a jerk move. I hope to be the first $100 cup of coffee. It's like, come on. I don't know, I like it. I like the ambition. I like the vision, right? And that's what I'm trying to bring around here.

A little bit of vision. You guys are like, oh my god, how much is this party going to cost? I'm telling you how much this party's going to make us in the long run. We have heat players who are here, I think, like they're around. I've been told that we're going to get heat players who will come downstairs from the else, which is where we're staying. But I think Amin is talking about, you know, Adam Silver and, you know, guys like that

Rob Thorn. Yeah, you got to put it up. So you, that's right. You think I've got to have some finger sandwiches out for Rod Thorne? Put it on the pole, what you do? Do we need to host a party for Rod Thorne? Basketball universe is here tomorrow, mean, and I have serious basketball questions. I want to ask you because Monty Williams just got $78 million after Frank Vogel got

or then Frank Vogel gets $31 million. I'm reading, suppose, got one year left on the contract. He could command 20 million a year. There are things in the sport that I want to get to with you, not the $100 coffee. I want to ask Greg because Steve Ashburner of MBA.com asked the question at the press conference with the Adam Silver about should there be a salary cap on coaches is our coaches getting overpaid no I don't think so especially spulster he should demand this is a new and improved and lebert are sure with the stugas gamble on

by draft keens he looked at the clock he looked at itbatard! Listen, it could be Julius Randall's building. I have a that. The Mecca. Or is Julius? The Mecca. Stugats! Steve Martin was a prop comment. You said that.

I said it two seconds earlier than you. This is the Don Lebatard show with the Stugats! and let's start the show with the Stugats. I just received shocking information during the break. It's just simply shocking. You got to play it? Well, no. But how you guys can manipulate... Your face could fit on a plane?

How you guys can manipulate me into spending money on things that we shouldn't be spending up money on. I was just told, I mean, has already promised a giant finals media party here in South Florida. He's already told a bunch of people in Denver that he's throwing a big party. He hasn't planned it. All you heard from the planning on what the funding would be would be last segment when he tried to manipulate his way into it. Well, promises such a hard word. And like promise, promise, I don't like breaking promises. What I like to tell people is expectations expect something big happening in that way. Like there's no really ties that bind. Mm hmm. It sounds like you promised people that there was a party yesterday or the day before. big happening in that way. Like, there's no really ties that bind. Mm-hmm.

It sounds like you promised people that there was a party yesterday or the day before. I may or may not have trademarked metal-locked media mixer. I want to get to your basketball expertise. Mike Ryan has just arrived polluted. Like, he brought Vegas. There was a trail, a wake of Vegas on him.

Oh my God, did you take a red eye? Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm glad I got a game misconduct. A wolf. Wolf. You could smell it. Oh, Vegas and hockey and playoffs and red eye and wolf. All of it.

Wolf, you just came into the room, everybody winced. I freshened up. You have just this is how I look. Spray and all right. This is the this is how I look. Spray and bring you this is the fragrance of hockey and Vegas and furthermore you cared about that result in Vegas wipe the floor with the panthers but let's bring in I am so happy to see this dude and I hate that we're bringing them in right now this minute down down to oh and and they've allowed 400 goals in the last six minutes. Randy Mueller has suffered so much coverage, so much shitty hockey, so much shitty hockey for so many years. He deserves a moment in the sun. Randy Mueller, you have been battered

by this sport. You've been battered by ownership. I am so happy to see that you have survived and that you get a moment that bleepin feels good because you've earned it buddy. I felt so bad for you. The last 25 years of crap you've endured. Oh, it's a living, it's a living though guys and you know the old saying if you can bend me but you can't break me. I've seen it all with the Florida Panthers, the ups and downs, the sideways, more downs and ups and that, but it's been a crazy, crazy ride. These playoffs and even the going back to this season, the Panthers just squeaking into the playoffs and that and then catching Red Hot and beat three of the top teams in the

league and find themselves in the finals. But all boy, they stubbed their toll last night. Rose is a red violence or blue. They got seven. We got two. Time for a goalie. Jay's goal. What do you think? Time for change? Uh, goalie, Bob, see it. No, I, I, I think they'll go back with Bbrowski. You know, he's been so good for them. And a big reason why they're in this position to get to the finals. He had it off night, but the team in front of him had it off night as well. So I think I'd be very surprised if on Thursday for Game 3 that they don't go with Sergey Bbrowski. Mola, why are you entertaining that as a serious question?

It was a serious question, didn't it? Let's hear. He was not Bobrafsky last night. He was more play the Barclaysound. Sir, Jay, Bobbocka. That was Bobbocka last night. That was not Bobrafsky. Was it a good idea for the Pantist to start

seven to the Fenceman last night? Well, I think, I mean, it's not going to confirm, but Radco Gutus is nicked up and he was a game time decision. I, you know, they're just trying to change things up. Casey Fitzgerald that they put in there is a seventh defenseman. He can also play Ford as well. I think just trying to change things up, get some get some new blood into the line up and you see, you see

that game the game and I didn't think it was a very big deal but okay but but molar molar if I may real quick when you say nicked up like that guy nicked up like what are we talking about there they're saying he can't skate the way that he was skating before that guy nicked up like when he's he's a glass churr nicked means he's what? His femurs don't work? Yeah, that means he's got a broken bone in multiple areas of his body. That's the way hockey players are.

They'll play with broken legs, broken wrists, broken hands, broken cheekbones. They play with it all. So, and then Palmer East also said that the reason he went with seven defense, he wanted to give some of the forwards some more ice time like for Haguey and Reinhart, some of the guys who can be different makers. It didn't work out, boy, oh boy.

So it will be interesting to see what the lineup is on Thursday night for Game 3. So people understand your story though, Randy, without betraying any confidence, as you have been a good employee and good face and voice for this team, over a legendary amount of time, the worst of it with the panthers. Like when you're looking around and you're like, man, we are poorly owned. Our ownership stinks or this is not running the way that a top flight NHL operation needs to run. The story can be told now because you've lived all of them. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of time.

Well, it happens because if you're not generating the revenues back in those days, it's tough for anybody that's in an ownership position to keep digging into your pocket. That gets old, that gets old just like dad, just like you're having to dig in your pocket all the time to buy Stu Gotts lunch. You mean, and to me and Tarty's that he's probably old.

So we've seen it before and that I'm just glad that you know, the Panthers, the ownership that they have now, the Violo family and their partner Doug Cifu, since they've bought this team, what over eight years and almost nine years now, they've done everything first class and the revenues are obviously up the interest. The team has played better and of course this year

they've really taken off in the playoffs. But stable ownership by the Viola family has been a big reason why the Panthers have been able to build this team. Basically when they bought it, they burnt it to the ground and then built it up the way they thought both on and off the ice. Explain to the 10 minute misconduct situation from Matthew Kitchuk because I don't believe

that either one married at a 10 minute misconduct like the the hit was clean on Jack Ikel. Maybe in the scrummy they gave it to him and Audi, Audi down the second 10 minute misconduct was knocked the stick out of his hand. So can you explain what happened there? Well, I mean, Roy, I think what happened is, the Panthers have played very aggressive hockey so far in this playoffs. In game one, there was a lot of scrums, a lot of punching,

and extra after the whistle, extra curricular activity if you wanna call it that way. And I think the officials went to both teams and said, listen, if there's any of that stuff going on, we're going to hand out 10 minute misconducts and we're going to put an end to it. So it was almost like the Oprah Winfrey show where you get 10 minutes of misconduct, you get 10 minute misconduct,

you get 10 minute misconduct, they were handing them out like candy last night. Well, You know, could chuck it plays that way he plays it on the edge, but now he's already got three misconduct so far and We're only in game two of the finals This is the thing though the panthers are it's okay to say it Annoying assholes like they play like they play no, that's how they play, they're proud of it. Randy, is that true or they're knowing assholes? They're proud of playing that way.

We had a conchuck's in here laughing about it. They'd like to irritate you. They thrive in misconduct, and hockey's trying to get control of the thuggery, because they like being assholes. Yes or no, Moler. Well, I don't know if I characterize it that way, but they they want to play in aggressive style And if that means that sits a little bit chippy what they're trying to do and it works so well in the first three

Series against Boston against Toronto and against Carolina is get the opposition off their game and you can compare opposition off their game. And you can compare it. Remember the Pat Riley, New York Knicks, the way they used to play. And even when Pat Riley came down here to Miami, the way that they used to play that aggressive style, they were taking files and technical files, but they're able to get the opposition out of their comfort zone, a way that maybe they're second guessing what they're trying to do on the ice and make the plays. It worked for three series right now, it's just not working. The Panthers have to play with a much more discipline.

They can't be sitting in the penalty box or else Vegas is going to run away with this thing. Moeller, this is why we're having you on and I'm very happy to see your face.
