What else can you say about the Golden Knights defense? First of all, then last night's game two victory. The VGK holding Dallas without a shot there in the third period for about six minutes.

Speaker 191.12s - 93.82s

Without a shot pass as well, no shot passes as well.

Speaker 494.04s - 120.7s

No shot passes, surprisingly. And then also the defense holding this potent offense of the Dallas ORG, no stars, no goals. Just one goal last night, actually, in the contest. And Noah Hannafin scores the game winner last night. And afterwards, he said that the Golden Knights really never lost their composure, especially in that first period when we saw the stars buzzing around.

Speaker 1122.64s - 179.28s

Start with a great sit-bin, quote, an absolute clinic, 100 consecutive minutes of making the number three ranked offense in the NHL ORG look hapless. That's a great line right there. Went on to say that now the Golden Knights ORG got, they've done everything he wanted to do,two games to non-lead, blah, blah, blah. But the first half of that statement is definitely incredibly strong. And you knew the Golden Knights ORG defense was going to be good. I don't think there was any question about that. Maybe there's a little bit of question.Petrangelo, we've had our conversations about Hague draws out, Martinez PERSON draws in. There was some concerns. Obviously, Ben Hutton's PERSON name, of course, comes up a lot. We'll talk about more on the defense later in the third segment, of course. But back to the defense, it's just, it's a fortress, right? It's a fortress.There you go. It's got the Kool-Aid PRODUCT going nice and early here. Once the stars got anywhere around that blue line, you had Cassidy PERSON. Cassidy took my quote, made it Ben don't break, Tom PERSON. And I said that earlier than Cassie PERSON.

Speaker 4179.28s - 191.02s

You said that. You did say that on Twitter, right? I saw something on Twitter ORG. And then Cassidy PERSON was reading your tweets there and then he mentioned that of the post game he does he reads my tweets during intermission

Speaker 1191.02s - 195.66s

to get some tips to help the team get better in the third and you know i definitely give myself

Speaker 4195.66s - 201.14s

you know a nod for relax i saw that that was cool that was cool um but wait a second and then

Speaker 1201.14s - 209.7s

cassidy said that i mean it doesn't tell your tweets it doesn't mean, it doesn't take a trained eye to watch how the Golden Knights ORG were

Speaker 4209.7s - 212.38s

handling the stars last night as far as what their strategy was.

Speaker 1212.54s - 216.7s

But every time you saw the stars coming in, the Golden Knights ORG, they were collapsing.

Speaker 4217s - 223.04s

And a great comment that Cassidy PERSON made in the post game was you're either going to be a shot

Speaker 1223.04s - 267.94s

blocker or you're going to be boxing someone out. You know, you're going to help play goalie is another thing he was saying, or you're going to go look for the player who's going to have that high danger chance, and you're going to get their stick under theirs. And it gives you a glimpse of just the brilliance of how he approaches the game. And we get such a small taste of it. Imagine what it's like, you know, watching him in his lab in his office talking to his coaches, talking to the players and stuff. And it's just a reminderhow good he is at what he does. And it's obviously he's got a Stanley Cup ring. Goldlights are Stanley Cup champions. And they're, they now have the number one seed Western Conference ORG, Dallas Stars with their backs against the wall. And Pete DeBoer PERSON probably over there rattling off cliche after cliche. Yeah.

Speaker 4268.16s - 273.82s

You know, we previewed yesterday the VGK Defense in yesterday's podcast here.

Speaker 1274.12s - 276.96s

And then they came out and they won 800 tightened up.

Speaker 4277.86s - 285.38s

Pete DeBore PERSON not able to win. He's not going to be able to win a Stanley Cup WORK_OF_ART. We won't. His system's still, like,

Speaker 1285.6s - 292.66s

so antiquated. And you can just push them to the outside. It's so easy. And there's been no changes.

Speaker 3293.16s - 299.58s

He doesn't adapt. He doesn't adjust. And he just, like, he cannot win the big one.

Speaker 4301.44s - 314.56s

I had a feeling the Golden Knights were in a good spot when I was listening to some of DeBoer's comments on the NHL network when I was driving yesterday morning before the game.

Speaker 1315.5s - 353.16s

DeBoer was making comments about the first game. Yeah, they had some good deflections. They had some puck luck. Maybe that's going to even out today. We'll get some of that. And it's just very standard DeBoer PERSON talk. Like, DeBoer's got a plan and he sticks to it.DeBoer PERSON has a winning plan, a very winning plan. I mean, DeBoer's done a lot of good things in the NHL. It hasn't done the one thing everyone wants to do. But DeBoer PERSON's done a lot of good things. And listening to his post game or his pregame yesterday or whether it was a post game for the day before, whatever it was, his comments were just so, they just pissed you off when it's your coach talking like that because you're one as a fan.

Speaker 4353.26s - 359.28s

You're watching as media. You're watching as whatever the heck it is that we do besides entertaining you. Entertainers sometimes.

Speaker 1360s - 404.32s

You just know what's going to happen. And that's exactly what did happen, right? The stars had many good chances. Credit Logan PERSON, of course, we'll talk about that later, but credit Logan PERSON for getting the job done, didn't give the no stars.There you go, Tony PERSON, didn't give many cookies. So that was certainly a good thing. But the stars just kept to their plan. And I think scoring early, honestly, it was probably the worst possible thing, or scoring the first goal, I should say,was probably the worst possible thing because now the stars really think their game plans work. And now DeBore's like, honestly, it was probably the worst possible thing, or scoring the first goal, I should say, was probably the worst possible thing because now the stars really think their game plans work. And now DeBoer PERSON's like, okay, we got this one. This is our game. And then the response. And then the game winner from Hannafin ORG. And then the empty netter, which sent me to the window with my golden nights reverse puck line at plus 335.Life was good yesterday. Life was good. You really like that.

Speaker 4404.4s - 430.72s

You were bending and breaking early on, though, when you were down one to nothing. It was a $20 bet. I had my feet up. I didn't care. Okay. You talked about the VGK response, the goal by Marshalls So on a dime from Jack Eichael PERSON. And his point streak now is up to 12 straight postseason. James. It's not Jackie Dimes PERSON. Jack Jackie Aces. Jackie Dimes now. Man, that was a great pass.Hannafin, oh, set up by Barbertschev PERSON, of course.

Speaker 0431.14s - 431.62s

Barbertschev PERSON.

Speaker 1432.24s - 434.88s

The barbishop started the whole thing. Right.

Speaker 4434.88s - 468.7s

And then Hannifin off of the Ottinger ORG stop, and the puck just squirted out. I would talk about puck lock, bro. But phenomenal. He gets the finish, deposits the puck just squirted out. I would talk about puck luck, bro. But phenomenal. He gets the finish, deposits the puck. I wanted to ask you, is Nick Waugh PERSON, is he okay? He got blasted with the puck last night on a nice block there of the puck that he took on with his knee,blocked a shot. And then no Nick Hague last night. How long will this be listed as day today? And Alec Martinez PERSON drew in.

Speaker 1470.04s - 474.26s

So, I mean, this is the importance of having local media on the road in Dallas ORG.

Speaker 4474.44s - 477.72s

Vince Sopienza put out there that Nick Wallach PERSON to look,

Speaker 1477.86s - 572.64s

Harry PERSON and said he was good after he took that shot to the knee. So we'll see, obviously, you take a rocket like that, either on your knee or right above where the pad is. We'll see what happens during the next pregame skate. Well, the private practice on Friday, whether it's optional or an actual practice or not. Who knows? Everything feels like it's optional.But I got a feeling the goal next will have a regular practice on Friday, given that they have the extra day off for the travel and such. But who knows? Some of the other points that you referenced in there talking about, oh, you said puck luck on the Hannafin ORG goal. I disagree. That entire sequence starts by a great play by Zach White Cloud PERSON.Of course, we're going to talk more about him again later, but it starts on a great play by White Cloud to make a little 360, keep the puck deep. And then you got Carrier and Colossar PERSON just getting that puck to the money zone. That's what I call it. Getting the puck to the money zone. Nick Waugh PERSON had great patience trying to get it, basically going backhand to forehand. Audenger made the stop. And then Hannafin ORG's rightplace, right time. Good to have an offensive-minded defenseman willing to make that pinch. So that's certainly where that's how that one came together. And credit to the fourth line, there was a couple different sequences. Colostar had a very similar chance, actually, in the second period. And just the fourth line was keeping the puck deep, keeping the stars on their heels,while, of course, inflicting pain and doing what they do in the corners and such. So this is the importance of rolling four lines through the lineup, only two total penalties in the game, from what I recall.

Speaker 0572.98s - 575.68s

So all four lines really had to be buzzing last night.

Speaker 1576.5s - 585.02s

Another real heavy game, not only for VGK, but for both teams, 55, 53, unless they change the totals again this morning.

Speaker 4585.5s - 593.88s

BGGK, the hit leader, Gigan Colissar, had nine hits, and he also hit that burrito in the post-game scrum.

Speaker 1594.22s - 600.6s

He's eating a stinking burrito talking to, yes, he was eating a burrito talking to the media.

Speaker 4601s - 605.64s

He's just, yeah, and he's like, I love it. Oh, you didn't see that? Come on. No,

Speaker 3605.76s - 611.14s

I was a haunted of the night. Are you kidding me? I'm going to, I watched Croixie PERSON. I watched

Speaker 1611.14s - 614.68s

Logan PERSON talk. I didn't, and I didn't want, but I'm going to go back and find that. That's pretty

Speaker 3614.68s - 620.68s

awesome. Bring on the Taco Bell sponsorship now. There is a Taco Ball ORG sponsorship.

Speaker 1621.02s - 625.7s

Two goals in any period. You get free tacos, bro. Where were you? Oh, you barely go to the games. You're not allowed to.

Speaker 3625.7s - 628.1s

Yeah, I barely go. I'm not a fan. I got blasted

Speaker 1628.1s - 629.28s

last night. That was fun.

Speaker 3630.5s - 632.12s

Gary Haydn, Marsha PERSON,

Speaker 1632.12s - 634.1s

so six years. You got blasted. Why'd you

Speaker 4634.1s - 635.32s

get blasted? Let's go back to this.

Speaker 1636.18s - 638s

Someone said, oh, because I went to a

Speaker 4638s - 640.02s

concert last night right after the

Speaker 1640.02s - 642.26s

game. At the end of the game,

Speaker 4642.34s - 644.12s

we were watching it, and I went to go see

Speaker 1644.12s - 645.38s

a band. One of my friends,

Speaker 4645.76s - 653.8s

a DJ from Portland, came in, turned me onto a new band called Karangbin ORG. And it was fun.

Speaker 1654.04s - 659.1s

And we went to Brooklyn Bowl FAC and we watched the show and chilled out. I can't like enjoy my time off.

Speaker 4659.1s - 664.64s

Like what? I don't know. I'm blasting you. Who's blasting you? I don't know. I think it was kind of nice,

Speaker 1664.64s - 667.58s

though, that people gave me attention because I'm an attention hound.

Speaker 4667.58s - 668.18s

Okay.

Speaker 1668.52s - 674.8s

So Dallas is a team, Chris, that has come back to win games this past season, right?

Speaker 4675.12s - 679.48s

Here is a team that was down in games 26 times.

Speaker 1679.48s - 684.8s

26 times this season, 26 come from behind wins.

Speaker 0691.46s - 693.82s

So is this a team now that can rally to get back into the series as it shifts to Las Vegas? Dude, let me hype it up.

Speaker 1695.26s - 809s

It's, it's cliche time. It's got to take it one game at a time and got to just, you know, we were really close. And all the crap that DeBore PERSON is going to talk right now. And the team obviously has to buy into the one game at a time situation. And obviously right now the star's goal is to extend this thing to six games. You get this to a sixth game. Obviously, the stars can try and steal that game in Vegas GPE.And they force the game seven. So it's not out of the realm of possibility. I think it's pretty far-fetched. I'll look at what the sports books think about that in a second. The gold nights, I will tell you right now, the Golden Knights ORG did open as a favorites. Let's see here. I got it up. Come back. Oh, they're doing maintenance. Okay, that's good. Okay.I did a screenshot already. But the Golden Knights are a minus 115 favorites. Dallas Stars minus 105. So you got 10 cents there, but I think that line right there is reminiscent of the sports books are saying neither team is going to win or lose three games in a row in this series, which I would have said the same thing about the stars,not losing two games in a row at home. So maybe the Golden Knights ORG are just going to run the table here. No one expected that. Obviously, six or seven games made a lot more sense. And it's just going to run the table here. No one expected that. Obviously, six or seven games made a lot more sense. And it's probably going to go at least five games at this point. I just can't see the stars rolling over. I mean, maybe the maybe Jamie Ben PERSON will be a healthy scratch. Maybe they'll healthy scratch Jamie Ben PERSON. So that way the stars have a shot.That's the last time they beat the Golden Knights ORG. And then it was this now, someone put out there, this is seven times in a row the Golden nights have to feed the dallas GPE stars so you know it's kind of that who's your daddy thing going right now the golden nights ORG certainly are our our boss in that relationship and uh the dallas GPE stars you know what is it the memes where you're like holding the like tom brady's holding like Peyton manning on his the baby version of Peyton manning on his shoulders you know and of Peyton Manning PERSON on his shoulders, you know, and stuff like that.That's right now what Coach Cassidy is doing with Pete DeBore PERSON. Call it what it is.

Speaker 4809.68s - 814.22s

Mark Stowe away last night, 18 minutes, 27 seconds of ice time.

Speaker 1814.42s - 815.32s

So I lost that.

Speaker 4815.46s - 816.38s

He got hit a couple times.

Speaker 1816.52s - 819.12s

They were, they were going to target him too.

Speaker 4819.5s - 821.28s

And Cassidy PERSON said he better be prepared.

Speaker 1821.58s - 823.62s

So we could talk to our bus.

Speaker 4823.62s - 823.76s

He took it.

Speaker 3823.88s - 824.7s

He's fine, I think.

Speaker 1825.32s - 826.22s

I think we need a break.

Speaker 4826.4s - 827.08s

Okay, we will.

Speaker 3827.56s - 830.3s

Is VGK peaking at the right time?

Speaker 4830.64s - 839.18s

That's what Mr. Chris Golic PERSON asks in between his bowling seminars. We'll get to that when we return right here on lockdown Golden Nights.

Speaker 3839.3s - 843.06s

I'm going to answer my own question there, Golic PERSON.

Speaker 4949.16s - 1002.56s

Welcome back on this edition of Lockdown Golden Knights, Tony Cardasco, and Chris Golic from Las Vegas. Thanks for making us your first listen every day. We appreciate you doing so. Tomorrow's WTF, it's that time of the week already. Get everything lined up and fire away. Saturday, the YouTube ORG exclusive.It's the Chris and Chris Jr. PERSON show, which you won't want to miss. And maybe we'll come out of Sunday retirement this weekend with the Saturday game. Who knows? You never know what to expect, right? Game time decision. So the question, you texted me last night.How much better will VGK get? Is VGK playing right now a tailor-made against the tailor-made system or have the Golden Knights improved a ton here over the past few weeks? I think all the above. First of all,

Speaker 11002.62s - 1008.92s

gold nights are minus 420 to advance against the Dallas Stars ORG. So it's not done yet,

Speaker 41009.08s - 1014.62s

but yeah, it's not looking too good for the Dallas Stars at the moment. So the Golden Knights ORG,

Speaker 11014.72s - 1176.26s

I mean, they've got a lot more runway, I think, still. Sure, you do have the familiarity in Pete DeBore. I think the book is out on him. And Coach Cassidy is a great coach, and Pete DeBore PERSON is a good coach. A great coach can beat a good coach probably nine times out of ten. Starr PERSON's still got a lot of good going. I mean, their offense, obviously, has been struggling for the last five periods since that crazy first period in Dallas on Monday night.So again, adjustments. I mean, that was one of my other storylines of the game last night, which, who is going to make a change first? I really don't think any, either of the teams made much of a change, which plays in, I think, to the system of Coach Cassidy PERSON, right? Pete DeBore, we've talked about this a million times.It's a broken record at this point where he just kind of sticks to the plan and it's going to work out and puck are going to get to the net and we're going to get some of that puck luck that the Golden Knights got on Monday. Well, no, you're not. Then you didn't. And you're still not getting any puck luck because you're taking crappy shots from crappy areas of the ice, not getting those rebounds. And credit Logan Thompson PERSON for, of course, doing that.So how much better can the Golden Knights ORG get now is the question? And, you know, this is the same team of what 15 and 1 or 12 and 1 whatever they were to start the season and oh yeah now you got mantha now you got hanafin who is just an absolute gem and umash hurdle PERSON who i don't have the face off numbers in front me maybe you do or if not i'll grab them but hurdle just wins every face off every spot you know whether it's the whether it's defensive zone face-offs at the end of the game, whether it's the offensive zone face-offs, whether it'sa start of power play. So, I mean, there's just so much good right now, but there's still more room to go up. And I think one of the biggest differences are the players not playing right now? You got Dorif and Amadio and even Cotter PERSON, to that matter, not playing right now. Cotter PERSON, you know, it's going to take a special, a bad set of circumstances to get him out there. But Amadio and Dorafiev PERSON could draw on depending on how things shake out. Definitely Dorofiev PERSON if the team needs a scoring punch.And then, oh, by the way, Alec Martinez with now 126 career playoff games is your seventh defenseman. Like, this is, this is pretty spectacular. And you got to credit McCriman PERSON, and I'm sure at some point will go down the LTIR path, that clown behind the glass. There's two people holding up LTIR signs,like, get over it, bro. Seriously. It's like those idiots that leave their Christmas lights up until March before they take them down. Just get over it and enjoy the game. So whatever.So Golden Knights ORG are going to get better. And this bodes well for a possible, possible, possible, possible deep playoff run. Such a rigged run, right? Isn't it funny how the

Speaker 41176.26s - 1189.22s

third period was the rig, rig, rig, rig, rig, rig, rig, great. The third period was the Achilles heel.

Speaker 21189.32s - 1192.92s

It was the rough spot the past couple of months of the season for VGK,

Speaker 41193.24s - 1217.9s

as they gave up like over 50 goals, right, since February. And now the Golden Knights, the past two games, they've played well. They've turned it on in the final period, especially defensively. Are the VGK, are they close now? Are they close to playing that full 60-minute game? Because they're playing better.They're playing more than 40. That's what we know right now, right? But how do they get to this point?

Speaker 11218.88s - 1253.4s

Yeah, fair question. And I mean, health, I think, is a big part of it. And the health of the veteran group all these players who have been there before hurdle how many how many playoff games he has on how much playoff experience hanifin has off the top my head i feel like it's probably not a ton but he's definitely he's type of player i don't think necessarily needs that playoff experience to rise to the bigmoments and then of course all the and mantha the same thing right um but and then you go back to was man i don't know man of course, all the, and Manta PERSON, the same thing, right? But, and then you go back to, was, I don't know, Manta was there when the Caps made their run against the Golden Knights ORG. I'm not sure about that. Thank you, wise.

Speaker 31258.12s - 1267.2s

Okay, so point being is there's that Stanley Cup pedigree up and down the lineup. And I think that's one of the biggest reasons you do see the team taking that jump right now. You said 60 minutes a second ago, yeah, I mean, this was,

Speaker 11268.9s - 1354.6s

I'd have to really scratch my head to think when the last 60 minute effort like this came out from the Golden Lights, maybe like when they played a Sunday matinee game against the New Jersey Devils or something like that where it was a close game, it was a weird game, but the Golden Knights were just absolutely buzzing the entire game, and obviously they came out with the victory. But besides that, I mean, this was probably the best, the Gold Knights ORG were the best version of themselves. There we go. There's a nice Cassidy PERSON quote right there. They were really the best version of this, of themselves lastnight. And they're back to their identity. Here's another thing, Tony PERSON. We talked about this. This team and I think injuries were the biggest issue. Last year, the team had trouble establishing its identity, I think, and that was just the coach and the team and everyone coming together. And really, we talked about the team not getting their identity last year until Barbish PERSON have arrived. Like, there was something that's when Barbish PERSON have arrived, the team became heavier and played more physical, and all of a sudden they were really tough to play against. Now, the Golden Knights, all those things we heard all season, right, about not wanting it,about being the best version of themselves. And every cliche is honestly coming to reality right now. It really is. And it would be fun maybe to, maybe I'll write an article about all the cliches and stuff and how it led to this great moment where the Golden Knights ORG now have the Western Conference leading Dallas Stars ORG against the ropes.And I think we'd be remiss if we didn't mention there was another empty netter last night, which got me some money, scored by. Who scored the other last night?

Speaker 31355.18s - 1355.68s

Jack Eichol PERSON.

Speaker 11356.78s - 1360.06s

Was it Eichol or Marcheson PERSON? I'll try.

Speaker 31360.18s - 1369.12s

Marcheson got the first goal. Okay. The soon to be unrestricted free agent, Tony PERSON. I think any time we say Marcheseau PERSON's name, there needs to be a rule.

Speaker 41369.22s - 1385.96s

We have to say the soon-to-be-unrestricted free agent, or we have to do a shot. Okay. So I did mention during the series preview, VGK needed that fourth line, right, to be physical and to be visible. That's something that we have seen. Visible.

Speaker 11386.12s - 1390.62s

That's a great word, Tony PERSON. Seriously, that is a great way to put that. Keep going. I'm sorry to cut you off, but I love that.

Speaker 41390.98s - 1427s

No, they need to be visible in this series. They need to eat burritos as they're doing post-game pressers. And they need to return to their identity. And so now we see what happens when VGK rolls for solid lines. And I think you have to credit Nick Waugh there for getting that fourth line there jump started. I'd have to at least. And I know one thing. When VGK returns home, I'm going to take all my money. I want to seeCarrier. I got to, like, if I'm if I'm a fan, I want to spend all my money to go see William Carrier PERSON play because I think he's

Speaker 11427s - 1464.04s

the star of this team. I just while Colossar was eating a burrito I I I with Tony PERSON guys you just never know where things are going to go like I like Tony could have taken Colossar PERSON chewing on a stick of gum to eating a burrito and post game but literally Colossar PERSON is eating a burrito and you know okay anytime we say William Carrier's PERSON name, how about we say the soon-to-be-unrestricted free agent, although I don't see the fans tweeting up and down the street about,about Will Carrier PERSON and all of that. So, I mean, listen, Carrier PERSON, I mean, I don't know about Carrier. I mean, Carrier PERSON's good. He's not a draw, though. And, I mean, Carrier, I don't see a path to him coming back next season, but what do I know? What do I know?

Speaker 41464.42s - 1469.42s

There's a lot of sarcasm on today's show. I got that. I called by it. I rolled by it, but I caught it.

Speaker 11470.08s - 1543.18s

Listen, the fourth line, I mean, you can't give them enough credit. And like I said, I got the shift chart here, just kind of going through right now. Again, four lines being rotated, looking at this, there's not a lot of double shifts happening. Looks like the fourth line only had four shifts in the, in the third period last night. So, I mean, maybe there was a little bit of rolling happen or a little bit of double shifting happening there for the first second and third lines.But again, that's not going to be out of the realm of normalcy. But it's interesting, just looking at the shift charts from a team, because it shows you the stars on top and the golden nights on bottom. And there's a lot more rhythm, right? There's a lot more rhythm to the Golden Knights ORG. They're rolling the lines where you can see in the third period, especially.Pete DeBore PERSON, I guess, was searching for something. I don't think he was changing lines necessarily. But then you see, you do see some double shifting like Harley and some long shifts out of Rupert Hints and such. So, I mean, the Golden Knights are in control right now. What So, I mean, the gold nights are in control right now. What's there to say?The gold lights are in control right now. And rolling that fourth line with the soon-to-beon-restricted free agent, Will Carrier, Nick Wah, and Brito Colossar PERSON certainly helping. And it's going to get the fans in a tizzy on Saturday night at T-Mobile ORG arena.

Speaker 41544.06s - 1548.48s

Coming up next, we're going to be talking about the performances of Zach White Cloud

Speaker 11548.48s - 1553.56s

and Logan Thompson. Stay tuned. More on the way after this on Locked on Golden Nights ORG.

And tomorrow here, of course, it's WTF, WT Burrito F tomorrow. That should be our theme. So let's first have first the burritos from they get them like catered

Speaker 11686.56s - 1693.04s

catered in you go in the skyboxes and just like grab the ones i mean how loose how loose are you right

Speaker 41693.04s - 1699.36s

if you're eating a burrito in the post game press or just in the scrum number one number two you're

Speaker 11699.36s - 1704.24s

saying it's great to have local media there i don't think there are any mentions that the guy's

Speaker 41704.24s - 1706.8s

eating a burrito as though it's normal business there.

Speaker 11707.54s - 1712.04s

Normally, when you're in the locker and what I've seen the players have are like those protein shakes and stuff.

Speaker 41712.1s - 1713.26s

There's just a line of them out there.

Speaker 11713.26s - 1723.16s

And all the media kind of walks by and looks at them. I'm like wondering if one of us is actually going to grab them or something. But the burrito, that's new. That's new. That's something new. It's a new wrinkle.What's your grade on LT last night?

Speaker 41725.62s - 1726.46s

Come on, B.

Speaker 11729.06s - 1735.18s

Results A plus, obviously, but I think he had a really good game.

Speaker 41735.24s - 1736.06s

I don't think he had a great game.

Speaker 11736.22s - 1830.5s

I think he had a very good game behind a very great defense, and it's not a knock on LT PERSON. I'll give Logan PERSON a straight B and here's why. There were some rebounds. At times he didn't look comfortable. He got comfortable as the game went on,but there was a couple of times, a couple big rebounds. Like it was a good performance, like a B playoff performance. I want to be clear. I know people are throwing crap at their TV and their radio dial.I wouldn't sell a dial on their radio anymore, but they're throwing stuff at whatever they're listening to this on right now saying that. And he had a good game. A B grade in the playoffs will win a lot of games for a lot of teams. But there was just, he didn't, he looked a little shaky at times to me.Like, I don't know if that's the right way to say it. Positioning looked a little strange at times. A lot of great saves, a lot of timely saves. Coach Cassidy PERSON, of course, started his press conference out by giving him credit for that. But there was a couple of times where you're a little bit nervous. And maybe that was just the nerves of playoff hockey, which is definitely fair.But I think that we still haven't seen a cool, calm, and collected Logan Thompson PERSON yet. And again, he's got two games of playoff experience. That's only going to get better as we talked about in the second segment with the rest of the team. So great, good game, Logan. Good, good game, Logan. He didn't steal the game for the Golden Knights, which shows how good, how well the Golden Knights played. I think he's going to have to steal one of these next games at home because you will see the best version of the Dallas stars who are going to pepper Logan with 50 shots in one of those games, 46 of them from outside the blue line, though. Yeah.

Speaker 41830.88s - 1844.82s

The only goal he gives up last night was on a massive screen. I think it was Jamie Ben PERSON in front. And then they were watching out. It was like double coverage there on the power play unit, Pavellski PERSON there on the slot. And then right out in front, it was Jamie Ben PERSON.

Speaker 11845.04s - 1846.88s

Logan PERSON's got a fight through a screen.

Speaker 41847.38s - 1849.42s

I am pointing this out now for two weeks.

Speaker 11850.22s - 1851.72s

Logan PERSON have to fight through that screen.

Speaker 41851.96s - 1855.92s

End of story. It's on him. It's on Logan PERSON. When a goal like that happens now, it's on Logan PERSON.

Speaker 11856.42s - 1859.9s

And Zach, White Cloud PERSON has to fight through all the demons.

Speaker 41860.34s - 1865.02s

He's not playing well. I mean, a turnover, big turnover last night, just not in the groove. Yeah, I mean, big turnover last night, just not in the groove.

Speaker 11866.06s - 1928.02s

Yeah, I mean, again, he set up the game winning goal. So this is a, we're going to talk out both sides of our mouths for a second here. And that was a great play. That was a great play.Maybe the game is still going into the seventh overtime if White Cloud PERSON doesn't make that play. You never know. So credit the White Cloud ORG for, again, this is another thing I've pointed out, White Cloud PERSON has, I think White Cloud is more confident on the offensive side of the blue line than he is on the defensive side of the blue line. He's looked good. He's been willing totake some risks and things like that. But his defensive game, he took a couple big hits. Sure, you take a hit, you make a play, whatever, but he took a couple big hits, including right early in the game, right? Who was it? Someone lined him up. I forgot who it was, and he got dropped, got it right up right away.But that's a huge momentum swing, or at least it gets the crowd in the game early. White Cloud PERSON took another hit later in the game, just a real good, solid squared up hit, a couple of turnovers and stuff. I still say I'm kind of surprised. I know it's lefty and lefty, if not mistaken, but I'm kind of surprised. I know it's lefty and lefty, if not mistaken, but I'm kind of surprised

Speaker 41928.02s - 1930.92s

that Mike didn't drawn with Martinez last night. Yeah.

Speaker 11931.62s - 1933.66s

Yes. And sooner or later, I think

Speaker 41933.66s - 1937.74s

it's going to force Cassidy PERSON's hand where he's going to have to do something like that.

Speaker 11938.64s - 1959.06s

Ben Hutton's your eighth defenseman. Life is good right now. Life is good right now. Aiden Hill PERSON is your backup goaltender. Pavel Dorafia and Mike Amadio PERSON are on the bench. It's setting up in the second round, if the Golden Knights ORG should get there,are going up against teams who have defensive and goaltending issues right now.

Speaker 41960.46s - 1961.94s

We did have a fun time.

Speaker 11962.4s - 1965.68s

Oilers dropped the game in overtime to the Kings last night, too.

Speaker 41966.28s - 1970.9s

Right. They only hung a total of six in that game. So that was like my triumph.

Speaker 11970.9s - 1974.4s

I had the over and my feet were up before the third period even started.

Speaker 41974.7s - 1981.02s

It's great. Yeah, six. They hung a six. It was five and a half in the opener and they moved it to six. You'll see six and a half when the series goes to L.A.

Speaker 11981.5s - 1985.9s

I do want to thank everyone there at the, how do we say this again?

Speaker 41986.1s - 1987.46s

The Lee's Family Forum FAC.

Speaker 01987.76s - 1991.46s

I'm getting it down, man. It's really been a tough process, tough process.

Speaker 31991.96s - 1994.44s

But a ton of people there. Great to see some fans.

Speaker 41994.94s - 2010.88s

Yeah, a lot of great fans out there. And I did get my Tomas Hurdle PERSON mask. They were looking for a Lars PERSON, whatever his last name is, one of those masks there last night, and they could not find one for me. So I...Shut up.

Speaker 32010.88s - 2016.3s

So we can't restrict. Oh, so here's that tweet.

Speaker 42016.4s - 2037.9s

Well, bro, get in line because a lot of folks are petitioning me to get off of this podcast right now.

I've seen you get some crap, but there's no petitions that I'm aware of.
