We'll hit a lot of your questions and comments and more overrated, underrated overflow coming up in the next segment. But let's go to the Able Auctions hotline and welcome in our next guest. It is Landon Ferraro, former NHL and current sports analyst. What's happening, Lando? How you doing, man?
I'm not too bad. How are you guys doing?
Hey, man, we're chilling. Lando, are you a big Lando guy? Like, did you get Lando a lot growing up?
Not much. It was like when they tried to force a nickname.
Right, yeah.
You seem like such a great Landon, not a Lando. Yeah, I'm like... I don't know if I'm not cool enough to pull off Lando or like I'm not Star Wars enough because that was the one I got all the time. Right. Was Lando Calrissian. Everyone thinks it's the funniest one ever. But, you know. I don't think I'm quite a Calrissian type.
Is Lando even cool? I'm not sure if Lando... Lando's cool.
It's like the F1 driver, Lando Norris. Lando Norris, yeah.
And I'm a McLaren guy, so I live with that.
I want to stick with Lando unless you prefer otherwise.
I just, whenever I got asked that question, I generally always said, you call me whatever as long as I'm still around and basically have a job. So go for it.
All right. Well, on that note, in terms of the stuff that's happening around the National Hockey League, the Stanley Cup Finals have been enthralling. And, you know, Bic and I were wondering ahead of the game last night that perhaps Vegas not throws a knockout blow, but takes command of the series, goes up 3-1. And nope, it's the most lopsided game of the series. A two-goal difference, this one, with Carolina defeating the Vegas Golden Knights. What do you make of what we've seen so far? And do you have any inclination of who's going to take this one home?
I mean, I said before the series and I know it's a bit of straddling, but like my head says Vegas, but like my gut says that it's Carolina's year and they're going to be able to do it. And you just, you look at it and it has to be perfect for Carolina really. Right.
What predictions are made for the outcome of the Stanley Cup Final?
Like they have a really good team, but I would say if you start going back and forth player to player that like Vegas, like you're taking that lineup more times than not. And, And the way that they've been able to go, and Brett Howden has been out of the world. It's been crazy to watch. And that release and goal from the other night was just insane. But Carolina, they just seem to keep thinking that they're done in the series and they find a way to battle back in the game or put up an effort like they did last game. And I'm just hoping it goes seven. It's been so fun to watch and and so different than what any of us were expecting, right?
Yeah, I think that's what's so interesting, too, because I think we're all expecting a lower-scoring, tight-checking game, and it's been open. Even Vegas of that first period yesterday, there was breakaways early on, and that's kind of the recipe to how to beat Vegas. Carolina, it's been kind of my issue going back, obviously, multiple years. It seems like when they get to these heavy rounds, teams just are able to open it up on them. But what's strange to me is also the periods themselves have their own personalities, where it's like Carolina's been so good in the early going. Vegas wins in the second, and the thirds have been Carolina's as well. But Vegas has been able to make hay in those second periods so well.
The periods themselves, let alone the games, they're wildly different. The swings are so huge.
they really are and you know like most especially stanley cup finals like when a team gets a lead or at least it's how it used to be like a team got a lead and you could basically turn the game off yeah you knew they were never going to give that up and and now it doesn't even matter what the score difference is it's
