00:00You walk in here with your Wrestlemania cup
00:02and your Ovi
00:03Screaming Eagles sweater on.
00:05You got your roller bag parked outside.
00:08You think they close it out tonight?
00:10I do. I do. It looks like
00:12Lexi Protis might be back.
00:14He was skating well
00:16yesterday. I mean, that's how they've
00:18been, you know, kind of
00:20operating. But to me,
00:22they've been able
00:24to spare him a couple of extra days here.
00:26He's been fully practicing since at least
00:28Friday. He looked sharp in the corners
00:30on some puck drills that I
00:32saw yesterday at MedStar.
00:34To me, like, do not
00:36mess around tonight. Come out strong
00:38like you did in games one and two.
00:40Taking the body, rolling all four lines,
00:42hitting everything in sight legally.
00:44Try and get yourself a 1-0
00:46lead, maybe more. Try and build on
00:48that. Play the third period
00:49if you can, somewhat like you did
00:52on Sunday night as opposed to the first
00:54three games. You don't have to play it as well
00:56as you did on Sunday night. And you're
00:58the better, bigger,
00:59more physical, more deeper
01:02team than Montreal, which is
01:04how I saw the series. I saw it in
01:06six, maybe not five, but
01:08it looks like they have an opportunity here
01:10to kind of, you know, get a little
01:12rest, get a few days rest. I heard you talking
01:14on my way into the garage
01:15about Carolina and
01:18New Jersey. Very good job by you, watching
01:20Max and all that stuff
01:22last night. You need to watch Baby Girl.
01:24I heard about Baby Girl. I'm not watching
01:26Baby Girl. I don't, I don't need any of that.
01:28Baby Girl's wild. Yeah.
01:29But anyway, get it
01:32done tonight. 100% he watches.
01:33Remember in 2010, they were up three games
01:36to one and head back to Montreal
01:38for game six. We're not allowed to talk about that.
01:40Sorry about the problems.
01:42Don't put the bad stuff on there.
01:44You know me, I'm Mr. Negative.
01:46You are. We know that.
01:47I think that's your middle name.
01:50Big game tonight.
01:51Now, you were in Long Island
01:53for Ovi to break the record.
01:55You go on the road unnecessarily
01:57all the time.
01:58Clearly, you were there too.
02:00Right.
02:01But I was paid to go there.
02:02Well, yeah.
02:03Okay.
02:05I mean, I do a lot of things
02:07that I don't get paid for.
02:08Well, obviously, you're going to go
02:10tonight then.
02:11No.
02:14How can you be our official
02:15puck insider and not go to game five?
02:18Brian, are you going tonight?
02:19Yes.
02:20JP, are you going tonight?
02:21Yes.
02:22Here's the deal.
02:23I very much want to go tonight.
02:25The NHL screwed me.
02:27Whoa, whoa, whoa.
02:28Nobody champions the NHL.
02:31How did they screw you?
02:31I thought the NFL screws you.
02:33Well, the NFL screws me too.
02:34But once again, it comes down
02:35to scheduling.
02:36They just schedule games
02:37whenever it's convenient for them,
02:38not for the Rooster.
02:40I was free last night.
02:41I'm not free tonight.
02:43But Rooster, this game was scheduled
02:45like three weeks, four weeks ago.
02:47It was scheduled a week ago, B.
02:48Yes, it was when the schedule
02:50for the series came out.
02:51Before the playoff really started,
02:52you knew if they were playing
02:54in Montreal on Sunday,
02:58you knew the game was going to be Wednesday.
02:59No, it should be Tuesday.
03:01Every other night.
03:02You get one more day of travel.
03:03You don't need it.
03:05It's an hour flight.
03:06It's an hour flight.
