(00:21):
yesterday when Page went down. It seems like she's okay.
I didn't oh yeah, oh yeah, it's like, yeah, it
was a pretty good takedown. In fact, you look at
the replay. Her knee got tangled up a little bit,
but I thought her ankle was the ankle was worse.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
She had ice on the ankle and the left knee yesterday.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Well, and as someone pointed out one of the national
media members said, as soon as she popped up and
the first thing she said is how's that not a
flagrant foul?
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Everyone knew she was okay, Yeah, yeah she did.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
She come back in the game.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Now, no, you kind of was well in control. There
was about a minute to go on the.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Ice on the knee on the bench. But yeah on
the bench.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Yeah, they play Xavier Wednesday and Hartford, so we'll find
out about that.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
All right.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
There is a picture a painting, beautiful painting that was
done here one of your on a golfing trip.
Speaker 5 (01:04):
Please, my boy Enox is out here. He's a fantastic painter.
Anybody needs something painted personally, you let me know.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Enox will do it for you.
Speaker 5 (01:13):
But you know, we went to on a golf trip
to Dunebeg and that was the first hole. And I
met Enox a couple of years ago at a Christmas
party and he was telling me this year that he's painting.
So I said, hey, we have to get something for
this guy who took us to Ireland. And you guys
saw it. It was pretty spectacular.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Yeah, very well done.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Well, So you can find out more. It's Enox E
n o X Shabaz sha b A z Z. You
can go to that dot com or you can go
to his Facebook page enox Chabaz gallery to or more.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Ce Jardino hooked you up there, you go, yeah, very nicely.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Here.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
All right, let's get into some hockey here this weekend.
It's New Hampshire. Now you look at the schedule, and
I know it's one game at a time. I get that,
but there's you know, you're right at the bottom of
the at the pair wise where could get you in,
But everybody, it seems like on the schedules, on that
pair wise above you. And it starts with New Hampshire
never easy sues his teams off to a good start
(02:09):
this season. You got a home and home with them
and off we go Friday night.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Yeah, I was just you know, we're watching some film
on their team today. And I obviously have the utmost
respect from Mike having known him for years and recruited
him unsuccessfully, but I did recruit him successfully to come
coach here at Yukon for a couple of years before
he went back to New Hampshire and took that job.
Over Their defensive course something. They have five senior and
(02:39):
defensemen and it's really really experienced. I think that's the
strength of their team. And they also have their top
line I think has twenty goals con Me and la
Clerk and Devlin, but Lavin's crown in up front. They're
really solid players. You know, the mo for New Hampshire
for years was that they're super skilled. They play up tempo,
(03:01):
but they play shinny hockey. That's not the case anymore.
It's and they were successful for a long long time
under Dicky Milly, and I had a lot of respect
for him as well, but we felt that if we
played a physical game against New Hampshire we could be successful.
It's just there as physical as anybody these days. So
it's going to be a battle, it's going to be fun.
(03:23):
As I told the team today, I'm really excited about
what we have in front of us. Yeah, what when
you know we're fifteenth in the pair wise and we're
playing like I said, well, I think twelve twelve of
the games are against teams in front of us.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah, right right, and fourteen of the sixteen like you
said to us before, thirteen of sixteen, top twenty five,
fourteen of sixteen or top twenty six, right, I mean,
it's just yeah, it's in front of you.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
That I said to the team, I said, we're in
a great position, in the position I would not want
to be in, you know, like I was looking at
Quinnipiac and Clarkson and Minnesota State, you know where they
might be fourteen or seventeen or nineteen in the pair wise,
but there's nobody in front of them that they're playing.
That's a tough situation to be in. Like where I
(04:11):
love the fact that we have a just grind of
a schedule. Jerry Yorki used to always say, it's the
men's League starts after January.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That's right, right, Your only home game this month is Saturday.
And I'm going to turn the clock back a little
bit because I was asked the beginning of the year
because Saturday night is a big night in Hartford. It's
the fiftieth anniversary of hockey and Hartford. The new England
Whalers played their first game downtown here as at Menbrew wha.
Why isn't this a doubleheader? Of course they're doing all
the work downstairs because you're sharing the wolfpacked locker room
(04:39):
this year, so you can't have, you know, both the
double headers that we're so used to having. So you're
at Cascano, but it's the only home game in January.
That's kind of strange. They have just one game in
the month in a month, but then you're going to.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Be whole month of February.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
So sometimes it's just a quirk in the schedule. In fact,
this year, we happen to be going. You know, we
played at Harvard, which next year that came.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Would be home.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
You know, we were playing a home and home with them.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Last year it was.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Home, right, and you play in a tournament too.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Yeah, we played in a tournament, but we have a
home at home in New Hampshire. And then this year
it's our turn to go to Maine for two so
that's that weekend and then January and Orno yeah, yeah,
I know, and then you have Connecticut ice yep. So
it's just a quirk in the schedule. But it wasn't
done intentionally. Sometimes that happens. But I was I like
(05:30):
the fact that we're home. We don't travel a whole
month of February, so yeah, that's nice to be home.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
One thing you did say in there was okay next
year that that game theoretically against Harvard would be at home.
A is that game on the schedule? And I asked
that just because you and Ted Denado seem to it
just seems to be a penciled in game.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Now, okay, right after New Year.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
This seems to be a good fit. How does why
is it such a good fit for the two schools?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Well, Teddy and I like, I've known him for a
long time, really respect him the way he runs his program.
I think it's a great opponent in the ECAC to play.
It's not a long trip for either one of us,
so usually a really good hockey game. And you know, now,
I don't know, like after next year the series ends,
(06:15):
I don't know if we'll continue it. Maybe we'll go
with Dartmouth. You know, well, i'd like to basically the
way I want to. We have ten non league games
every year. Two of them are going to be the
Connecticut Ice. I'd like to take a trip out west.
That would be for two games. You have six left.
I'd love to play Dartmouth Brown, you know, one of
the ivys that are local. I think that's a fun
(06:36):
game to play. I'd like to play one of the
Atlantic Hockey League games. I think it's important that we
continue to play against all those leagues and then mix.
You know, I love the Christmas tournaments when we can
do them when they work in your schedule. I think
those are awesome way to start your second half as well.
So that's kind of how we try to break down
our schedule. You know, this year we have a last
(07:00):
coming in because we needed one game and they're out
here playing somebody and it worked out that we'll play them.
So essentially, that's how we try to break down our
non league schedule.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
All right, welcome back.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Joey Muldowney and Callum Tongue.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Interviews are coming up next, and we'll wrap things up
with Coach Cab near the top of the hour as
we're live at bear Smoke House Barbecue the Youkut Hockey
Coach a show on Learfield.
