Speaker 4 (00:30):
Now, are you gonna go on the couch at eight
o'clock tonight?

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Sits down and let's.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Put it in gears Donnie and Dollie.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Ten o'clock at downtown Vancouver, bro A Paul Carson Studio.
Thanks for tuning in, folks, Happy Canada. Today, it's Donnie
Dolly the team on Check, Don Taylor, along with Rick
Dolly Wall. Ryan Henderson is our producer. He's the man
that the control is our director. The voice of God
is Derek Wong. Derek hit it. He shoots and the

(01:05):
touts and time the game six foot two seconds remating regulation.
He is twelfth all time in Canucks points, eighth all
time in goals, and he's sticking around in Vancouver. Brock Bessler.
We found out not that long ago within the last
half hour that Brockbsser on this day when NHL free

(01:27):
agency opens, has extended with the Vancouver Canucks. He's sticking
around despite all the rumors of him going elsewhere. Rick
do the honors in terms of the terms of the deal.

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Well, I've been saying for weeks, Don the Canucks were
going to take one final stab at Brockbasser, and they did.
They did. Everybody this morning got up and thought he
was gone. He was gonna go to Admonton, he was
going to go to San Jose. I heard the Sharks
were gonna give him a you know, seven year deal.
There were everybody kings, everybody, everybody was in on Brockbasser.

(02:00):
But he outweighed the Canucks. He got the term he wanted.
The Canucks first offer five times eight not good enough
on the term side. It was always the term that
was the issue. He outweighed them. Done seven years and
seven point two. The Canucks caved on the term. They
did the bottom line, they caved on the term and

(02:23):
good for a Besser never wanted to leave, felt disrespected
at times, never wanted to leave, never ever, ever ever
wanted to leave, and right at the very end they
tried other things done. Don't think that they just spent
all day and all morning and all yesterday on Besser.
This was a last minute thing with the agent Ben
Hankinson out of Minnesota. But and they got no cap

(02:45):
space out left. Now after giving Brock everything, Suitter's gone, Yeah,
Shooter's gone. But you know what they got the guy
they got the guy they got it done. Drafted by
the Canucks nine years ago, top ten goal scoring. All
he's ever done is score. All he's ever been is
a role model. All he's ever been is a model
draft pick on and off the ice, zero issues off

(03:06):
the ice. This guy's been absolute gold. And the team
they got it done.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Well, I'll go the opposite. His off ice story has
really gotten people on his side here in Vancouver and
it's one of the reasons for his popularity and what
he's had to deal with in terms of family matters.
So when you think of seven years and Brock Besser,
I think the first thing that comes to mind. For
a lot of people, he's twenty eight now, and I've

(03:33):
said this before, but for a lot of people they'll say, well, man,
he's not a fast skater. He's a slow skater. What's
he going to be like at thirty four, thirty five
years old? And my reply to that is that I
am more concerned about a player unlike Brock, who depends

(03:54):
on speed at say age twenty eight, what is he
going to be like six or seven years on the road.
Brock Besster has been productive and it hasn't been the
fastest guy in the National Hockey League by a long shot,
and his game has never depended on speed. You look
at Brad Marshawn. I'm not comparing him to Marshaan for
a second, but one aspect of their game. Same with

(04:17):
Corey Perry. They've lasted a long time. They're not fast scaters.
They depend on their smarts. Brock Besters also expanded his game.
He's better defensively than he was when he first broke
into the National Hockey League. He wins battles along the boards.
He's a very good playmaker as well. Are their flaws
to his game. While we mentioned the speed, there's that

(04:38):
the other thing. So I'm not worried about his speed.
To sum up that part of it. The other thing, Rick,
you know, seven years maybe that's not what the Canucks wanted,
but that's what they end up giving brock Besster. Seven
to five is not much of a raise, relatively speaking.
He was making six six'.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Five rick not worried about the. Money the money wasn't the.
Issue the biggest issue in this contract was. Term canucks
went from five to, seven of which they did not
do all season, long but at the last, second So.
Suitor they never took a serious run Of, suitor Like.
Donnie i'm hearing like they would never got to the
number four With. Suitor they were always in the. Threes

(05:19):
even this MORNING i heard that never ever ever got
close With. Suitor we're not going to Give suitor the
money that he was asking. For this isn't about, money
it's about. Term he got the, Term. Donnie absolutely he
outweighed The, canucks and boy did they come back to.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Him but if you make it sound like it's a
Complete canuck, victory, right are probably A besterer. Victory it
is A besser. Victory, Sure but if you look ON
i think a lot of people are okay with a
lot of knuck fans are okay with. THIS a lot
of people are looking at this as a draw that
both sides went on. THIS i think if you would
have said this a few weeks ago or even, yesterday

(05:58):
people would have, said, yeah, sure, yeah most people in
the fan. Base you got to ask, Yourself, john why
did they go from five to seven years at the last. Second, Why,
well they're getting desperate for.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Panic did? Centers they just didn't see a. CENTER i
mean they took a you, know they were going to
take a good run At Christian, deborak but he got
five point four million In. Philly they weren't willing to
go to five point four million For Christian, deborak but
very Interesting Christian deborak this, Morning. Dawn they. Did they
allocated the money. Here my biggest question now is who

(06:31):
plays center For. Besser that's one let's say go, ahead,
no because he's A. Jt miller.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
GUY.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Jt miller's not here. Anymore the most you gotta let that.
Go hold in a, Second, NO i Don't oh is
he coming?

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Back, no he's not coming.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Back but who?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Who what?

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Center Did besser have the most success With? Miller they
got to find somebody to get chemistry with this.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Guy and, well let's take a look at the projected
top six after today's development and by the, way, folks
The canucks have been. Busy we realize there's been another
development in terms Of Thatcher demco extending with the. Team
we'll get to that in a. Bit But canucks projected top. Six,
again we're throwing this out. THERE i realize that people

(07:10):
get way too excited when it comes to line. Combinations
they can, change, well they can change shift to, shift
not only a game to. Game but this is what
we're going with for. Now how About petterson Between kine And,
Besser heatl between De brusk And. Garland, Well, garland by the,
way officially extending today six times six, brick which we

(07:31):
talked about. Earlier.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yep And heatl's never had over a double check on
BUT i don't think he's ever ever had over fifty.
Points when The canucks Took edmonton To game Seven round
two two years, ago their centers combined for two hundred.
Points peterson And miller two hundred. Points what Is? Peterson
and you Gotta canucks gotta get out and by the,

(07:53):
way eleven six is here to. Stay his no trade
kicks In, petterson you got to pray right. Now that
gets back to his, points the key to the. Season
he's the key to the season now Because heatl's not
a great point getter forty five fifties the most he's ever.
Got he's mostly a third line center.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
If he can play every game like he did during
his debut debut.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
Debut but the absolute must For Elius petterson to regain
his form is so big for The Vancouver, Canucks, Besser Caine, DeBras,
garland they don't have any more, money don this is,
It this is essentially. It they're capped. OUT i am
sure you can still make trades this. Summer you can make. Trade,

(08:36):
hey you can open up cap. Space but, boy be
a penguin out.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
There they can get.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
It is there is this is the best top six. Ever,
no it's a little bit mid for, me but you
know here it. Is this is where we're. At this
is where we'ret.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
Okay AND i tweeted something out about this after the,
draft something along these. Lines But Caine, GARLAND i think
people were happy with the drafting Of Braden. Coots and
by the, way development camp is going on this week
for The. Canucks dempko that Deal besser early is it just?
Me but and again you tend to be very negative

(09:14):
when it comes to, think are these not a whole
lot of positive? Moves, well this is the ONE i
tweeted out on the weekend when they made three straight
in my, opinion excellent. Moves and you can add dempco
In besser to. THAT i think there's a lot of
positivity for the first time in a long time surrounding
The canucks right.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
Now, well Three americans assigned, Today, Donnie, Dempko garland And.
Besser and what's the key, There, hughes who are the
buddies With Like, Quinn.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Hughes is the only buddies With. Americas just, Stop i'll
telling you that he grew up with these. Guys it's
the core. Guys, well not With, garland but the other.
Two you don't Think hughes is tight With dempko And.
Besser maybe this helps keep the gang. Together Maybe quinn
does in both in a year and a half or
two years To New jersey or.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
WHATEVER i play with his. Brothers maybe this. HELPS i don't.
Know but more important For hughes is, winning winning and.
Winning can The canucks turn it around to win and
keep them here for?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
That, okay so let's go on and again Brock besser
extending with The. Canucks he was A. UFA i was
trying to and our great listeners and viewers can help
me out here when The. Canucks when's the last time
The canucks is probably last year And i've just forgotten
last time they've re signed or extended a player After july,

(10:34):
first one of their own. Players, yeah you know WHAT i.
Mean i'm talking about A. Ufa so maybe our viewers and.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Customers in just a few hours and literally an hour
into free, agency they Resigned.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Brockball, well it's really a trend in The National Hockey
league right, now And i'm sure that has a lot
to do with the cap going. Up but look at
what happened With, Florida, Marshann, bennett eck Bled Eck blad
all because mank go down In Los, angeles those Three
panthers all extending with With, florida knives In, toronto Though
marners moved on To, Vegas fabria And. Columbus it's a

(11:07):
trend THAT i don't think we've seen a whole lot.
Of but, meanwhile let's get back to The canucks for a. Second,
yeah we thought this was going to be the focus
of our show. Today but then along comes Brock. Besser
nothing Against Thatcher, dampko but AND i think this is
a reasonable deal for everybody. Involved Thatcher dempco extending with
The canucks three, years eight point five millions starting in

(11:31):
twenty twenty, six a couple of seasons from.

Speaker 4 (11:33):
Now all, Right Thatcher. DEMPKO i want to say. This
The knucks did a good job of getting the term
low because of his. Injuries they were after three. Years
i've been saying for. Weeks but boy did they buck.
Up on the other. End the agent did good on the.
Money the agent didn't do as great on the term
in the sense THAT i probably wanted that term to be.
Higher dempko cannot be. Traded there is a no moved.

(11:56):
On you cannot Trade dempco in these three. Years it's
a great job by the agent. There The canucks are
going to be paying thirteen million dollars to two goalies
in two, years those three.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
YEARS a great. Deal great job of.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
The agent to get an. Move don are you kidding?

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Me he can't be. Moved you cannot trade. That your
damp talking about the term.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
Though oh it's, well that's WHAT i. Said the. AGE
i just want TO i just want, to you, know
poke the bear. Here no agents never make a rolling movie.
Ad that's the agent. Said this guy's his. Agent demko
Is Jordan. Newman good. Guy but, listen he did a
good job getting a no. Move that's very rarely seen
in a short term deal to get a no. Move

(12:37):
they can't move that Your. Dempco that that's. Incredible you
know that he sat for three. YEARS i don't care
whether you're like the deal or. Not he's not going,
anywhere but thirteen million dollars The canucks are going to give.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
First it's. Incredible if he stays, healthy well, sure that's the.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
Key and by the, WAY i was told again this
morning he's one hundred percent healthy and has started his
off season. Workouts so there you.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Go SO i think there's a lot of excitement and
LIKE i, said positivity surrounded The canucks right. Now but
you said it. Earlier, rick the key is one of
the one of the two big. Keys Is patterson finding his?
Game the other Key what we just talked About dempko's.
Health if that, happens given given their goaltending, situation tandem

(13:22):
with With dempko And lankan and what a positive for
The canucks and that extremely solid defensive. Corps nothing nothing
wrong with. That there are two giant IFFs. There but
If petterson can find his, game If dempko can stay.
Healthy when he's, healthy he's one of the best goaltenders in.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
The, world top five goalie in THE, nhl by the, way.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
If if he's, healthy like, SO i think that's where
a lot of the excitement comes in. There, again big big,
Ifs but today's a pretty good day for The canucks
and there haven't been a lot of those.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Lately and the other good thing for The canucks is
knowing That kevin lancoln is. There if he does get,
hurt they have a very solid. Backup here's the other.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Thing let me just interject. Here they have to play
lanka in a. Lot and that's WHAT i was gonna get.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
To more than your average back that's WHAT i was
gonna get. To If dempko shows up the camp, healthy
expect something like a sixty to forty split Between dempko And.
Lancan And i'm just, spitballing but that would be. Good
you don't want to play demp go fifty five sixty
sixty five. Games you, don't you don't sixty forty. Split
lancoln is a great. Backup you got it?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Made, yeah and So dempco. Extending and this has been
speculated on since they won The Calder. Cup what happens
with the Sis abotsford won The Calder? Cup what happens
with the archer se?

Speaker 4 (14:35):
Loss he's they got to move. Him they got to move,
Him they got to move. Him there's no. Room you
Got tolapilo And Ty young In. Abersburg they got to move.
Them they'll bob Drafted. Medvedev, medvedev they probably just Like Pod.
Colson we'll get a fourth or fifth round pick from.

Speaker 1 (14:50):

JACKET i know you'll be right into this, Information. Donnie
you are always such a fashion east on. Television i've
got a check jacket AND i tried the jacket and
the tie and it was just too. Wild it was too,

(18:56):
Wild So i've. Changed i'm. SORRY i do not have
read the sad BUT i have, white very White canadian,
colors one white and red.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
One for two not. BEAT i put a red shirt
away last night LIKE i hung AND i forgot about
it this. Morning again my. Apologies, Okay, ian moving, on
enough about fashion here On Canada. Day what about what
The canucks are up? To let's start With Brock besser seven,
years seven point twenty five PER i think most people
were surprised by. That what about?

Speaker 6 (19:27):
You, YEAH i was a little surprised by, that BUT
i got to share a little. Story so we knew
That brock was on, holiday SO i had resisted reaching
out to, him but he was back, yesterday SO i
sent him a text and you know you probably had
a few hundred of them waiting for him when he.
Checked but, anyways he texted me back this morning at

(19:49):
four thirty my. Time so that was good BECAUSE i
needed a wake up, call just saying it's an exciting
time but a stressful time trying to figure out what to.
Do and it was, like, okay so he hasn't made
a decision, yet so happy for, him And i'm happy
for The, canucks But i'm really happy For brock Because
he's a guy who Bleeds canuck, colors and as you guys,

(20:11):
know that hasn't always been easy to find over the.
Years and here's somebody who badly wanted to. Stay was
genuinely hurt a little bit at the deadline how things were,
handled and not that The canucks would necessarily look at moving,
them but maybe just some of the things that were.
Said but in the, end you, know the team circled,

(20:32):
back and we believe the team came up a little
intern And brock came maybe down a little IN avv
and they found a way to get it. Done So
brock follows his, heart comes back to The. Canucks didn't
want to, leave and you, know it's a very good
day for the organization to have him re, signed especially

(20:53):
on the heels of announcing the extensions For demco And.
Garland clearly they are embracing guys who want to be,
here AND i think that's A i think that's a big.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Statement are you as worried And i'm. Not i'll go
on record as saying that he did in the last.
Segment are you as worried About brock speed down the
line as everybody else seems to.

Speaker 6 (21:15):
BE i, Mean brock has has to score goals and
he has to create, offense and he has shown that he.
Can he is well equipped to do that at THE nhl,
level even with he's with his. Skating of, course it
would it would be great if he had another, Step Even,
BROCK i THINK i would love another, step but this

(21:35):
is a. REALITY i don't think for the way he
the way he, plays his effectiveness on the power, play
how smart he is with the, PUCK i don't think
skating is something that's going to undermine him any more
than it has. NOW i don't see it as more
of an issue in the future than what it is.

(21:57):
Now and you, know in the, end he's got to
AS i, said he's got to have a bottom. Line
he's got to score, goals he's got to create. Offense
but when he's been, healthy he's been able to do
that on a very good complementary. Level like play him
with a good. Center we saw what he did WITH.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Jt.

Speaker 6 (22:15):
Miller we'll see if you know how much they try
him With. PETTERSON i know there's a lot of confidence
in the organization That petterson's going to come back and
be a better. Player But brock has shown himself to
be really. Good AND i think the other, thing and you,
KNOW i hate to waste all our time with a,
soliloquy BUT i think the other thing here is we
know that the team has looked at trying to make

(22:38):
a trade for a, center and that's not to Replace.
Brock that's to REPLACE. Jt miller and give them a
little a few more. Options we all know the question
marks Over petterson And. Hetl the team's been trying to
trade for a center for a couple of months and
have just been, stymied essentially by market. Forces this new

(23:00):
era of THE nhl where every team suddenly has money
that has not had money for, years and no matter
how bad they, are unless it's Like San jose And,
chicago they feel like that, money, well that'll buy two
or three players and then they can be. Good every
team is trying to be, good so it's hard to
get good players from anybody in. Trade we saw at

(23:22):
the draft that the draft pick just didn't have the
value in trade that you would expect of a mid
first round, pick and The canucks got a player they
liked in Branden kot's but that wasn't their first. Choice
and then you come to free, agency you see how
little is on the. Board if You're, vancouver you probably

(23:43):
you've probably changed your opinion a little. Bit and we'll
see What Patrick albean. SAYS i know that the team
had had always the negotiations weren't always, ongoing but they were.
Periodic there'd been contact between the. SIDES i think this new,
reality this new landscape that THE nhl is in where
it's so hard to at the, moment it's so hard

(24:05):
to acquire, players there's so little available in free. AGENCY
i think it Made besser's return to The canucks not
much more important for the. Organization AND i know it
was always important To.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
Brock, well what's also important Today Thatcher dempko gets. Done money's,
high but the term is nice and low for a
guy who's had a horrible year with. Injuries what was your.

Speaker 6 (24:27):
Take on The dempko, Contract, Ian, well kind of like you,
know With brock seven years at seven two, five it's a.
Compromise we should all be so, lucky by the way
to be able to compromise and still end up with
fifty million. Dollars, yeah, exactly, SO i think With thatcher,
again this is a compromise So thatcher obviously is leaving
term on the, table you, know prime years where you

(24:50):
would expect him to be entering into a long term
deal for a lot of, Money and in, return The
canucks rewarded him with AN avv that you know is
a little bit out, raising just considering the problems That
thatcher had with his health and then his form last.
Season BUT i actually liked the deal from The canucks

(25:11):
standpoint because they mitigate the risk by doing three years
instead of five or six or seven or who, knows
maybe even. Eight they pay a little, more but WE
i just talked about all the money rushing into the
system that, said there's going to be a cap. Crunch
The canucks are going to have to make some decision Before.
September but if there was a time that they could afford,

(25:32):
it now's the time they can afford. It and it also,
REFLECTS i, think the fact that the team is willing
to do this deal now that they have a lot
of confidence That thatcher is healthy and is going to
come back and have the kind of rebound season from
an injury plagued year that he had two years. Ago

(25:54):
because if they were really worried about, it you know
they were a year out from free. Agency, still they
could easily have let this go into the start of the.
Season let's see how he looks In. November we'll make
a decision By, christmas certainly before the trade, deadline we.
Can they didn't do. That they jumped in now and
they seize the opportunity to sign a guy who when

(26:16):
he's healthy and he's on we know he's an elite,
goalie was The Vesna trophy runner up just thirteen months.
Ago get him now for three, years AND i think
it's good. BUSINESS i also, think as to my earlier,
point it means something to this regime which has lost
a couple of guys and maybe even their coach And Rick,

(26:38):
talkett because they. Waited it means something to this regime
that the guys that they, like who really want to be,
back and Both garland And demco had expressed a strong
desire to come back and sign an extension this summer
and not have to wait another. Year it means something
to the organization to keep those guys and keep a

(27:01):
team of players who want to believe be here and
believe in the.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
Organization Ian i'm still worried about second line. CENTER i
know they're going to poke.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Around.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
Uh you, know philipedal by nature should be your you,
know third line. Center he's never had more than fifty
points or forty, five and theis as high As, uh
that's a bit of a. Concern who's going to get
the puck to the best? Er he LOVED.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Jt.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
Miller what about second line? Center can they still do
some shaking the bacon this summer to fix?

Speaker 6 (27:28):
That, well it's hard to, See, rick where the money
is going to come from for. That you look at
What devorak. Got mind only a one year, deal so
one year and he got as most the most money he,
could you, know five point four.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Million, well.

Speaker 6 (27:44):
You, know if they'd Signed, DEVORAK i don't think people would, say,
well he's the second line center because his numbers are
even lowly historically than Than. Heatles SO i think they're
kind of resigned to the reality that their centers might
have to Be petterson And. Hetel we know That peterson
is whatever's gone on in the last year and a,

(28:05):
half we've seen it From peterson that he can be
an elite. Player the organization believes that he's going to
be elite again for them and that he can be
a legitimate first line. Center the organization obviously also thinks
That heatel has more to his game than what he has,
shown and with, opportunity can provide more points than he

(28:28):
has in the. Past and let's keep in mind this
day and, age second line center doesn't have to begaining
you sixty five. Points you can have fifty points and
be a pretty good second line center in this. League
but the, question to, me it's not Whether heatel's capable
of doing, it because we've saw the skill set that
he has in that short time after the trade From
New york and before he got another, concussion we've seen

(28:50):
that he's got tremendous skills and with, opportunity with powerplay
a few more, minutes yes he can get more. Points
i'm confident in. That it's just the medical history and
somebody that, young who's had so many serious head. INJURIES i,
mean you wouldn't wish that on, anybody no, matter no

(29:13):
matter whether they're hockey player or. Not you don't want
to have someone in their mid twenties having to deal
with issues that are potentially quality of life. Issues but you,
Know heatel told us at the end of the season
that he felt really good and would be ready to,
go would have a full training this. Summer and the
fact that The canucks have not to this point forced

(29:34):
a move because you don't want to make a bad.
Move we all know that as. Well they haven't forced
something at center so. FAR i think they they're prepared
to go with With hetel as a second line center
until they have to pivot and do something. Else now that,
said who, knows they circle they circle back On. Besser

(29:58):
lots of things can change and maybe they still go
and get a. Center but right, now having spent the
money On, brock because if you were going to bring
in a true second line, center that was probably the
money that would have gone to. That they've Brought brock.
Back right, now it's hard to see how they're going
to do, that how they're going to make another impact.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Edition no red, shirt no red. Tie but that interview
can could not have gone. Better and, hey this we're.

stopping on A tuesday.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
Morning, well you mentioned twenty six hundred, votes pushing twenty
seven at this.

Speaker 4 (33:18):
Point crazy.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
Enough this was actually our second second pole, question was it?
Not our first pole.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
Question was about The what was it about YOUR, Demko, Oh, DEMPICO, Dempco, Yeah, BESSER, Dempko,
ryan get her up the waddling. Dog Pop pole question number,
two what do you think about your dempko's new? Deal
thumbs up or thumbs? Down a little bit more even?
Here sixty seven, up, uh thirty three percent. Down fourteen
hundred votes, there and that's a big number THAT dempko

(33:46):
got money, wise but they kept the term, low which
was very good for The Vancouver. Canucks he's going to
be thirty three to thirty four coming out of that,
deal and we'll see where he's. At he's still got
time with the cap going up and up and up and,
up and he's still got time to cash in Big
dempko long.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Term, yeah and keep in mind that he still has
a year left on his current deal at five, Million
so this isn't gonna kick, in, no until twenty twenty.
Six that's the start of twenty twenty, six twenty, Seven
so they got up four more years.

Speaker 4 (34:16):
And that's when The Vancouver canucks are going to pay
two goaltenders thirteen million dollars unheard of in this, market unheard.
Of uh but the canucktion the old. Cap, yeah, thanks?
Yeah liking? It, no because More lincoln got the big
money And denko get the big. Money thirteen million to
two goalies for The canucks in two years.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Now we're getting all sorts of uh credit here for being.
Positive it sounds like you're being. Negative, ah Just i'm
they're paying their. Goaltender No i'm.

Speaker 4 (34:44):
Not that's two years from, now that's not next, year
and the CAP's going to be up. Considerably The canucks
are going to have AND i said this yesterday and
you attack. Me they're gonna be great in goal for
the long. Term their solid, NET i mean goaltending is.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
Rick the only REASON i came back Because demko's health
is still an. Issue HE'S i, MEAN i believe it's
going to. Be my guess is it's still it could
very well be an.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
Issue i've been told this morning again by a very good,
source he's one hundred percent and he's on the. Ice
off season workouts has started with. That your dempicoat it's all.
Positive there you, go there's the positive. Positivity what are
you talking. About i've been positive all. Morning The Besser
i've been. Hammering The canucks were not Doing. Bester they
got it done.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
TODAY i want to go.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
With an Early is it just?

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Me? Here is it just?

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Me this is?

Speaker 1 (35:32):
Unsigned but this is the biggest snooze fest of a
free agency day in the past, decade especially For canucks
fans running it back with the same. Team and now
The canucks are on food, stamps shopping no name brand
at the dollar. Store what's wrong with doing? That While,
Vegas florida buying top shelf at Whole foods AS i

(35:53):
refer to a whole. Paycheck, Okay so here's the thing
we talked about this. Earlier how so many teams now
with the cap going up and going, up looking ahead
season by, season that so many teams are signing their own,
UFAs including The. Canucks, Right SO i think the thinking

(36:15):
was they were going to Lose, dampco they were gonna
Lose Trade, dempco they were gonna they were gonna Lose.
Besser they're probably gonna Lose suitor, now so what was
what was the alternative were with all these players signing
with their old, teams who was going to come To?
Vancouver SO i, think you, know to go against this
text that this was the lesser of two evils absolutely.

(36:38):
Bought besser's a popular, player, yea you, know forty goals or.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
Not you make a good. Point look at Three Vancouver
Canucks american born just committed To vancouver for term and
over one hundred and ten million. DOLLARS i can tell
you talking to agents On july, first all the top,
guys nobody wanted to come To. Vancouver vancouver's not a
destination because of all the drama on the soap opera
field the team this year at.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
Least.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
Yeah, Yeah but the fact that Three american guys you,
know said, hey we want to stay In. Vancouver, hey
And demko told his agent many many weeks, ago get
it done To. Vancouver Connor, garland get it down To.
Vancouver besser never wanted to. Leave that's a great sign
that these guys want to. Resign, meanwhile free agents On july,

(37:22):
FIRST i talked to a top free agent agent yesterday
said Not vancouver's not a. This my guy doesn't want
to go To. Vancouver but it's really good that these
three guys wanted to.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Resign imagine how many people they'd be able to attract
or keep if they had a practice.

Speaker 4 (37:36):
Facility oh, yeah and Again i'm going to bring this.
Up does this help in keeping The Quinn? Houstontown this
might help keeping him in. Town keep that in mind as.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
Well, okay let's let's take a look at what else
is happening around The National Hockey. League if we've got
we haven't got all the, signings but we've got a board.
Here this is the first day OF NHL a free.
Agency this is. Yesterday, well, no it's official. Today Mitch
marner a years twelve million, DOLLARS, aa v Ac blad
and marsh and how about, That Sam bennett and those.

(38:07):
Two just Give florida with The Florida, panthers Get florida The.
Cup everybody making fun Of Bill's zedo in his interview
with T Sms James duffy After florida wanted Second street
At Stanley, cup him saying with confidence as Only Bill ziito,
can that he's going to keep all. Three and he.
Does and there's the evidence there of players extending with

(38:28):
their old. Teams Logan stankovin is sticking around with The
Carolina hurricanes eight, Years kamloops six million AA. V they're
happy with, him The kamlops.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
Kid The Vancouver canucks Took klemovic two picks, Later dallas
Took logan Stan. Covid look at, look look At. Stankovian
go back to negative ream not being. Negative i'm giving
you the. Facts you want, FACTS i give you. Facts
that kid could have been A vancouver but that's not
a the this regimes.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
Pick that's they would go back to the.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
Positive they Loved klemovitch and The greeny video and back
In europe he was. Great he had a good year
this year for The Abbosford. Canucks not Like stankovin, Though
no forty eight million for the kid From camlin acquired
the rent in.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
Trade we got another board, here by the, way Because
philadelphia was up to a few things today with the
new head. Coach, look look who signs In.

Speaker 4 (39:20):
Philadelphia, Rick you called, this, Yeah rick Talk it got his,
Guy Noah juwison one year, deal nine hundred, thousand one,
way very. Important he asked The canucks for a one.
Way The canucks said we can't do. That and The
canucks wanted room on the right side and the third
pair for the young. Kids young kids are going to
get a chance Because jewleson's. Gone Christian, devorak The Vancouver
canucks were in on him. SIGNIFICANTLY i think if they

(39:44):
could have Got divoraka in the, forest they would have
done that. Deal Corey perry's going to be a top six.
Guy he would be he would. Be, yeah they would
have brought him in the second line. Center you can
take it to the bank that The La kings are
going to The Stanley Cup finals next year and losing
and losing Because Corey perry just joined. Them Tanner janea

(40:04):
was a guy That canucks checked in, on but look
at what he. Got canucks couldn't do, that not with
the seven million cap. Space The Vancouver canucks checked in On.
Geneau they love the toughness he hits he, fights he,
scores was on The canucks.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
Radar how can they keep how could they go Get
Tanner jane if they're keeping Brock.

Is addressing things. Are percolating that's a. Good word that's a.

Speaker 5 (44:30):
Good word Percolating, around Sabers Defenseman bowen byram trade conversations
are Happening, With calgary VEGAS. L A saint louis among,
those interests and also hearing an offersheet on bow and
byrom is. Being contemplated so there. You go So the
canucks were in on this up till last four or.
Five days they were in on Bow. And byram but

(44:53):
obviously they're not going to get.

Speaker 4 (44:54):
Him now but there there is word he will be
traded in the next what he had hours possibly and
so keep an eye.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
On that the interesting One for vegas we haven't talked about.
Yet Today pet Alex petro angelo announced it yesterday that
his career is. Essentially over he is not, confirmed retirement
but due, to injuries he is not playing for the.
Foreseeable future and the other thing that was coming out
yesterday in Regards to vegas Is This rasmus anderson news

(45:23):
Out of calgary that he apparently has one destination he
wants to go do in one destination.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
Only and That Is. Las, vegas, well well it's just
it also seems like pretty much any big name is Connected.

Speaker 4 (45:36):
To Vegas, oh Ryan Is sammy blaize? Just signed well
it Looks. Like montreal, oh okay, All Right So sammy
blaize Another in abosford's hero there In The. Caldar Cup.
The canucks by, The way, Uh.

Speaker 5 (45:51):
Yeah montreal seven hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. One
way that's not in the tweet Here From. Chris Johnson
so i'm not sure that's, just funny, but.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
Uh they didn't want to do one way is my.
My gut but that.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
Doesn't make it any. Less, disappointing yeah he wakes, people
up you, don't know but there a.

Speaker 4 (46:12):
Diamond doesn't every team's got a guy like that at
the at the.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
AGE level i mean he you can. Get guys and by,
the way they had issues with, his conditioning why Why
would montreal? Send? Him, then Okay but, i'd argue so you're,
The playoff well what did?

Speaker 5 (46:28):
They do what Did the? Canucks do you talk about
getting the? Building alive what do they do they brought
INTO well i don't think he can have.

Speaker 4 (46:35):
Those, guys, YES yes i Can confirm sam he got
it one Way. In montreal so there.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
You go it's one Thing the canucks didn't want, to
DO and i. Get that. THAT'S it, i, mean, like
SORRY if i, like players he's a fourth line Story.
Like SORRY if i like players who go out of
their way to make life difficult for the opposition and
charge charge up, the, audience, Sure, sorry SURE but i

(47:00):
would argue they have that Now In. Evander kaine they
clearly have that in Key for Surewood they i'll give.
You That, DAKOTA joshua i don't do certain have enough of.

Speaker 4 (47:09):
THOSE guys i Think the canucks were Down On dakota
joshua this year for. Whatever reason he had a hip injury.
TO cancer i mean that's the bending. Second half he
had a lingering. HIP issue i don't know where that
lingering hip issue is, right now but if that guy returns,
still lingering yeah it. Could be it could could very.
Well be if that guy returns to his physicality in

(47:30):
form of two, years ago Then the canucks should have
enough meat and potatoes up front to take care. Of
you i'm so Sure.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
About demko it's gonna happen With The. Dakota joshua?

Speaker 7 (47:39):
Was?

Speaker 5 (47:39):
It absolutely we are getting a lot into, The, ladies
okay tiring the. In box Should the canucks motto for
this season?

Speaker 1 (47:47):
Be? Questionable definitely, because, no no like in terms of
the roster OR literally ep forty like their slogan for. The,
year yes not a question MARKS Around E. Pforida canucks
we're not sure how we're. GONNA do i mean a
lot of question MARKS around Ep Forty Heatle, Kane.

Speaker 5 (48:05):
Demko joshua like you showed me another lineup IN the
nhl that has this many question marks. AROUND it, I
mean i, just yeah that's definitely gonna be. One thing
there's gonna be a lot of questions that are gonna.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Be answered say, it again this is the lesser of,
two evils because it looked like they were gonna, lose, Everybody,
right yeah. That's true. That's true they went. From that
so the, Key is i'll say, It again depko staying
Healthy at pederson finding, his game getting back, his game
if that Happened.

Speaker 5 (48:38):
Above, demko oh, definitely YEAH because I mean lincoln and
is yeah and in this Beyond.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Solid yeah seems like it seems, That, way, like, yeah definitely,
but again, you Know, Uh Patrick, jim adam if you're if,
you're watching let's have a close to an even split. Goaltending.
Duties yeah but, again though like to that point you
read Earlier About.

Speaker 5 (49:02):
Whole foods, YOU know I because i was thinking about
that a lot, Yesterday too like So now vegas is beefed. Up,
again Okay the oilers Are, The, Oilers. Winnipeg dallas there's. Four,
Teams eventually seattle is probably gonna figure.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
It Out utah la made, The Playoffs la.

Speaker 5 (49:21):
Utah Drants, loves, UTAH right, i mean you, Tell, NO no,
I know i'm. So good they didn't make the playoffs.
LAST year, i Know but i'm, just SAYING like i.
DON'T know i just what is the ultimate? Goal here
get the participation ribbon that you made, The playoffs that's what.

Speaker 1 (49:37):
It is what would your actually production sign and at
the expense of losing a lot, Of Players, mitch martin
that would?

Speaker 4 (49:46):
CREATE it I mean i think that would be.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
A disaster, i mean like like like think about how
that's Gone in, TORONTO again i think this, is like,
realistically speaking this is the lesser of the.

Speaker 4 (49:59):
TWO years i still.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
Don't know what the. PLAN is i still don't know
what the heck plan is to? Get better what part?

Speaker 4 (50:05):
Of that can't you?

john by, THE way i looked at your. Bio today
your birthday Was. In june we didn't say happy birthday.
To you, Happy, Birthday, john yeah.

Speaker 8 (53:53):
Thank you. I'm trying i'm trying to get those. Retroactively.

Speaker 1 (53:58):
Reduced, yeah yeah well you you've got. Company there hey
what you're just your opinion of What the canucks were up,
to today over the last week, or so But, Extending
garland Demco, and besser they're all.

Speaker 8 (54:11):
Sticking around sigh, OF relief i think more than anything
for the, hockey club, you KNOW and i say this
for any team that's or any fan base that is
a little disappointed that their team hasn't dipped their toe
into the unrestricted free. AGENT market a lot is that

(54:31):
we're not starting the. Season tomorrow there's still a lot
of work. TO do i Think the canucks understand there's
still a lot of work. To do maybe not on the,
blue line BUT certainly i think that you know that
there still has to be an appetite to look at
some sort of second. LINE center I Know philip heatle's a,

(54:53):
good player but you have to have some question marks about.
His health so, to me this is this is not
the end of. The search this is just the beginning of.
The SEARCH so i expect a few Teams, like Vancouver
like edmonton to be in the world of trying to
make their team better over the next couple. Of months and.

Speaker 1 (55:15):
Going back, A, bit john do you understand what the
conducts we're thinking In Acquiring? EVANDER kaine.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
I do.

Speaker 8 (55:23):
I do and when you think of, You know Garland
and sherwood And, now kine this team's going to be
hard to. Play Against evander kaine still has a lot
of miles, on him, you know and and and he
can be. A factor you talk to Anybody, in edmonton
and if you watch, those games particularly the first three

(55:45):
Rounds Of vander kain was a factor in. The playoffs
he made, a difference uh AND and I and i
think that that's Really what caine's going to bring to.
THE table i also think that he's got a little
more juice in the game playing for his, hometown team
that he'll be a better player. For it AND so

(56:05):
i don't think that it deserves as much criticism as
some have. Given IT and i do think that he
can still score twenty goals in.

Speaker 4 (56:13):
This league john the head coach Of The, vancouver canucks
was on your. Podcast recently what did you take out
of that any good. Little tidbits.

Speaker 8 (56:23):
HERE'S what I knew adam a Little bit rick over,
the years we have. Mutual FRIENDS what i would say
is he was much more in depth and PRAGMATIC than
i thought he was going. To be was VERY over
i thought he was open and Honest with landon and
me on, our conversation and, you know has in taking,

(56:49):
the job did a lot of, due diligence talk to
a lot, of people asked the. Right questions AND now
i think that the child and even how he put
his assistant, coaches together of who has, the strengths, You
Know kevin dean has a, Certain Strength scott young has
a certain STRENGTH that i think that people are going
to be impressed With what. ADAM does i think he's learned.

(57:11):
A lot i think he's learned a lot from his Time,
in kelowna which was not. VERY successful i think he's
learned a lot Standing Beside, rick TALCKETT and i think
it's a bonus that he was on this bench with
this organization for the last, Two years.

Speaker 4 (57:26):
John AND, new cba and we've all. Covered lockouts they're
not a lot.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
Of fun.

Speaker 4 (57:32):
The NHL's maybe asking for two billion per team. In
expansion talk a little bit about those, two things and
it looks like business In The National hockey league.

Speaker 8 (57:43):
Is GOOD so I think i've told this, Story, before
RICK when i WAS when i was with. The league
The first Board of GOVERNORS meeting i attended was in
two thousand, and Six and gary got up and talked
about the growth of the game coming out of the
lockout coming out Of The winter Olympics, in italy and,

(58:06):
he said, you know we're going to be close to two,
billion dollars and everybody was shocked that the number was.
Two Billion Then baine capital tried to buy the whole
league the next year for three, billion dollars and so
to be close now to seven billion dollars with a
great partnership with, the players, you know the harmony on

(58:30):
the labor front is a huge asset For The National.
Hockey league and so now what we have is we
have the opportunity to keep the game going in the.
Right DIRECTION new tv Deals, in canada there'll BE new
tv deals In The united states in three years WITH preferably,
i guess with one with a big streaming company and

(58:52):
then all of, a sudden two billion dollars for an
expansion franchise and pick a city and somebody's going to.
Pay that and that's that's exactly where we are when
you think That the lakers went for, ten, billion yeah
And the celtics went for six point, seven billion maybe
two billions.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
Of bargain somebody tried to buy the. Entire, league, Yeah,
WOW yeah i don't remember.

Speaker 8 (59:16):
That, Story Yeah, main capital which is a big, hed
hedge they tried to buy the whole league at one
point in the early, two thousand in the early. Two,
THOUSANDS yeah i didn't go, very far but they tried
to buy it for three. Billion dollars that would have been.

Speaker 1 (59:36):
A Bargain Mitch MARNER john i was. Reminded today so
he Goes to vegas, after nine, you know personally spectacular
regular seasons with the least his fifth all time. In
points what's his Legacy in toronto as he moves on
To The. Golden, knights, uh well that's a.

Speaker 8 (59:59):
Great question ten years, from now his Legacy in toronto
will be much better than it. Is today people will
have forgotten the issues that. Have, Occurred statistically, you're right
he has been, a very very good player For The.
Maple leafs but as as you, guys know living in

(01:00:23):
the city you, live in this is all about. Winning
championships and the parallels of winning a Championship With mitch
marner reflect in winning one playoff series one and that's not.
Good enough and there is Something about marner and his Personality,
in toronto a, local kid that that has has really

(01:00:47):
soured many people On what. MARNER'S done i think in,
Many ways marner is the closest Player In maple leaf
history in style and effectiveness on the ice in the
regular Seat to Dave. Keon uh and that's, HIGH praise
i think for a guy. Like that but it was
Time for marner to. Move on it was time for

(01:01:10):
this Organization With brad trire living At, the helm to CHANGE,
the Dna as, Brad says and so this was in,
my mind the first, big MOVE and i wouldn't be
surprised over the next two years that we see bigger moves.

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
Than, that yeah and probably a good idea for him
to be In The western conference and not have To
visit toronto all. That Much.

Speaker 8 (01:01:31):
But i'll tell you what when the schedule comes out on.

Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
The sixteenth, oh boy.

Speaker 8 (01:01:36):
It skick In a Vegas in toronto game and Then
the toronto at this.

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
Game. Too, yeah no you're right Because the leaf fans
are all fans are known to Attend To golden. Knights,
games john thanks.

Speaker 8 (01:01:49):
For, this yeah it'll be it'll.

Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Be great it'll. Be great so is it this is our?
LAST lost i was just gonna say this? Is, it
yeah we're Off for, we're OFF as i, mentioned earlier

very busy especially in this market when it comes to
the vankor. Of accountings let's get To The wattling DOG,
and I like, i said. Busy day so, poll questions two,
of them not. Just one visit One of victory's. Favorite
Pubs The waddling dog sponsor of our pole question where
you can enjoy twenty taps and twenty screens your home

(01:04:25):
FOR the CANUCKSI. In ufc, come sit stay At the.

Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
Dog today, all right here we go and it Is
The waddling dog pop pole question and it is get her, Up.
Here ryde what do you Think of brockbasser's? New deal,
seven years seven point two mil per? Year nine we
got eighty nine percent bumps up and we got eleven
percent down almost. Three thousand, oh my is it hopping

(01:04:47):
and bopping On a. Tuesday Morning, SO brockbass a lot
of people love. This deal and one of the Reasons
is brock's are very. A lot he's a guy that
is easy. To like he's a. Popular guy but you
just have a tough time not liking, that guy.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
And he's produced on. THE ice i think he's had
to adjust his game and he's he adjusted. It well
and everybody knows about his off, ice story which has
been a, pretty difficult and he's persevered.

Speaker 4 (01:05:15):
Through that well and done off, the ice he's been a.
Model citizen you ever heard, of it just Like The.
Sidine twins have you ever heard of a bad story
About brock mester off? The, Ice no we've had from from, Day,
one yeah. Day one we've had Plenty of canucks that
come through that have had issues. Off, ice well they
just got one. Last week but you Know what, I'm, saying,

(01:05:36):
yeah well you Know what i'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
With bubble Back To. Derreck, sanders oh we.

Speaker 4 (01:05:41):
Spent an hour talking about all. The misfits, but listen
this is a good signing By the canucks that got
the guy. They wanted took a little bit longer, than
expected but they got her on.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
For, last money but longer than some. People would bottom
line is, he's back and not everybody expect. THAT fact i.
DON'T think i think very few people expected it to.
Be back so this was actually our second, pole question
our first poll question had to do With another. Canuckts extension, all.

Speaker 4 (01:06:08):
Right here, We go rye get her. Up again what
do you think? Of that Your demp goo's new deal,
three years eight point. Five mill sixty eight percent say
love it and thirty, two percent which is a significantly
high number that don't. Like it fifteen hundred votes. Already
there so obviously the people that don't like it would
have Concerns with. Dempko's, health health and, you know let's,

(01:06:30):
be honest. The populatias he's had a horrible. Twelve MONTHS
but i can report, this morning AND like i have been,
all week he is one hundred. Percent HEALTHY and i
can report he has started his off. Season workouts he
was not doing that twelve, months ago but he is.

Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
Doing that at. That, point yeah so there. You, Go
YEAH and i think with anybody who's negative, REGARDING this
i think most people would be happy with. THE term
i did not. Expect this but the money eight point
five a little, bit rich especially when you Consider what
lankinin is making.

Speaker 4 (01:07:01):
As, well okay so the agent's not going to be
happy here don with, the term, but boy, oh boy
he's going to be happy with. That money because That
makes dempko the fourth highest paid goalie In The national.
Hockey teaue can You imagine don coming off your worst
year injury wise and skyrocketing from five point five or
whatever it is to end point five off an injury.

(01:07:23):
Riddled season so the agent took the money but couldn't get.
The term so both sides won In, the canucks one on,
the term the agent wan on.

Speaker 1 (01:07:33):
The, money okay so let's show our, graphic here our
board here recapping What the canucks have been up to
over the last forty eight hours. Or So, connor garland
actually we talked, about this you talked about this. Last
week six years he extends six million dollars, aav rick,
no BRAINER and i would think of. That money as

(01:07:54):
we showed earlier in our top six prediction or forecast
that he would be a top, six Player thattor demco,
three years eight, point five as we talked about Per
brock besser, seven years seven point twenty five per more
to come From. The canucks foll for, One Thing peace,
Suter's Gone pa.

Speaker 4 (01:08:15):
Shooter's. Gone boy they never got Close with pa. Suitor
boy these reports yesterday that oh the talks are positive this.
AND that i call bs on that they never got
Close With. Pa suter, IN fact i don't think They
Made pa suitor, an OFFER and i also think they
never got out of the Threes With. PA suitor I
Expect pa suter to get four million plus on, the
market but they never, got close not even. Remotely close with.

Speaker 1 (01:08:37):
Pit coming off his best most he, Was, Unbelievable don
but one hundred and eleven million Dollars the canucks spent
on three, players today one hundred and eleven million dollars on.

Speaker 4 (01:08:49):
These guys look at that, seven years, six years. Three
years so, you know you can blame the owner for all,
you want, but boy that's fourk went over a lot of, Dough.

Speaker 1 (01:08:58):
Today don as Far as Canucks former canucks who were
in the Lineup for vancouver, Last Year no julson has
signed a one year deal nine hundred, grand Yeah With
Rick Tockett's. Philadelphia flyers, of course no shortage of other
signings around The national. HOCKEY tague i wanted to run.
This clip there. You go No and Christian. De vorax
some thought that he was going, to come he Was,

(01:09:20):
to vancouver but he ends Up With Rick. Talcketts flyers
one year five, Point Four corey Perry's In La tanner
janelle Again some canuck talk, surrounding him goes To The,
boston bruins and given the way, he plays that seems
like the right fit. FOR him i wanted to run
this clip because this is at the trade deadline When

(01:09:41):
the canucks were unable to Unload, brock besser and this
was seen as a slight Towards, brock besser almost an Insult.
Towards brockbesser this Is From patrick alvin at. The deadline
was there really no interest in him in? That range
like a potential first rund pick and those Kinds of
AND if i told YOU what i was Offered, FOR

(01:10:03):
brockbesser I think i would have to run out of
here because you would not. Believe, Me, Really, Okay okay
so that was seen as a. SLIGHT one i didn't
see it. THAT way i did.

Speaker 4 (01:10:13):
Onundred Percent the besser camp was not happy. WITH that
i can confirm that they weren't happy with that one.
Hundred percent and they.

Speaker 1 (01:10:19):
Were wrong, oh no they. Weren't wrong why why why
do you have no issue with? That ONE because i
think and keep in Mind That patrick elvin's second Language, is,
English right what has that got to do with? The
comment it was taken and again he. MISSPOKE there I
think i think what he meant was he was upset

(01:10:41):
with what other teams Are. Offering brockbesser it, Wasn't well
brockbester is not worth very much and teams weren't offering.
Very much it was more. A shot this is THE
way i, read IT and I know ryan agrees with
me that it was more a shot at the. Other
teams how dare the offer so Little For brockbster if
they were so upset, About it i'll come, they, resigned okay, Hockey, extent.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
Well after a lot of back. And forth what what
there's a better way of? Saying?

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
It OKAY because i is any And if english was his,
first language maybe that's, what happened which she has got
nothing to do.

Speaker 4 (01:11:14):
With That the besser and, his agent we're not happy with. That,
comment anyways they got. Her done apparently they're okay WITH
bess i felt disrespected. At times, ISSUE well i think
the thing that was more DISRESPECTFUL was i can't remember
which member.

Speaker 1 (01:11:28):
Of the management, said this but they talked about after,
you know the multiple Years in vancouver that they were Still. Evaluating,
BROCKBESTER meanwhile i see that was a.

Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Bigger, instant Meanwhile To pittsburgh penguins show up, here Midseason
get brad new you made that point a. Week later that's, Disrespectful.

Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
TOO okay i mentioned About the canucks plan how they're about.
To go you know how a lot of people, are
upset because not a lot, of people but a percentage
of people. Are upset, you know it just looks like
they're bringing back the same. Old TEAM but i have
a thought as to What the canucks might. Be thinking
we'll save that. For tomorrow in, the meantime you've got.

you know you got the taste of what that's like
in a, big city and, you know it's it's a
it's an, addicting feeling, you know winning a lot, and uh,
YOU know i couldn't imagine what it'd be like TO
when i Win, a cup, you know in a city.

Speaker 3 (01:15:33):
Like that so that's that's what my goal is for
the next. Seven years.

Speaker 1 (01:15:37):
There, You, Go Wow, connor garland positive, moments away, moments
ago and you just think. ABOUT it, i mean that
was one playoff series win and a, real entertaining fun
filled seven game series lost To The evanston owners and
look at the impression it Made On. Connor garland and

(01:15:58):
of Course brock besser was part of that Run With
connor garland a couple of seasons ago With The. Vancouver
canucks he is also extended With. The canucks he's sticking Around, in.
Vancouver folks brockbass extends for. Seven Years Here's connor garland's
Thoughts on. Brockbasser's extension i'm.

Speaker 3 (01:16:16):
Very happy i'm sure. He's happy he's done getting my.
Phone calls, YOU know i probably, called him, you know
more than my wife the last the. Last week but,
you know he's just the.

Speaker 7 (01:16:27):
Best guy he's the, ultimate teammate a. Fantastic PLAYER so, i,
WAS uh i was very EXCITED when i saw. THAT
news i was away from my phone for about a,
half HOUR but i had five Texts from misi and
five texts, from HIM so i knew it was.

Speaker 3 (01:16:39):
Good news but, you know he's just such a such
a like, you said a.

Speaker 7 (01:16:42):
Culture guy you always played there for so long for him,
to be, you know playing on the, same team, you
know his, whole career not many people. Do that so
what An opportunity I'm just i'm very excited.

Speaker 1 (01:16:51):
He's Back Both connor Garland, and Brockbasser, both american both
with fifty points. Last Year connor garland's got to WEAR
an a, next year does? He?

Speaker 4 (01:17:00):
Not, absolutely yeah they. Gave him they gave him that
contract because they think he's a. Big piece they, like
him they want to work with him and the. Young
kids this is a. Culture move it's a good move By.

Speaker 7 (01:17:12):
The.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
Canucks yeah what a year for a Cond. OF garland,
i know disappointment With the canucks they don't make, the
playoffs but personally he gets the, fifty points he signs the,
contract extension and let's not forget about the gold medal
FOR the usa At The World. Hockey championships also news
With the Canucks That connor garland Commented On evander kayne's,

(01:17:32):
recent signing, recent trade recent acquisition By. The cannucks Cond,
OF garland.

Speaker 3 (01:17:38):
I think he's a, guy that, you know no one
really likes to.

Speaker 7 (01:17:42):
Play against he kind of has that, you know, scare factor,
you know which we kind of had in, the past,
you know was the. DOOR off i think he's a
similar type of player where you got to play honest when.

Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
When he's on when he's on on. Your TEAM so
i think he's a huge impact.

Speaker 7 (01:17:57):
For Us can score obviously had some huge years in,
the LEAGUE and i just think he'll create a lot
of space for guys, up FRONT and i think he
makes he makes our group up front a lot tougher
just in the sense that, he's there and then it
adds a lot of toughness to guys around us that,
you know we have some tough guys and guys that
stick up for. Our teammates but he definitely helps in.

Speaker 1 (01:18:15):
That Sense, Connor, Garland, Thatcher Dempco, brock Besser, all americans
all staying With. The cannucks and with that, in mind
what does that mean for down The Road, Quinn, hughes.

Speaker 4 (01:18:26):

my dad stopping at our local neighborhood, corner store letting
me out of the car to go inside to buy him,
As Usual sportsman king. Sized Cigarettes sports yesterday did not

camp weren't Happy with, alvin's CAR and i THINK and i.

Speaker 1 (01:25:48):
Think they read. It wrong and there's a couple of
people who support Me and ryan when it comes. TO
this I think i Think what alvin said was more
a slight against a shot at AGAINST other nhl teams
that they were offering more than it was a shot at.
The best that's THE way i read. It anyway, all
right we agree, to, Disagree? Right Uh happy canada to
