How is Brendan Batchelor adjusting to the current NHL offseason?
How are you? I'm doing well. How are you guys? We are well. Are you in NHL off-season mode yet, or are you firmly in World Cup mode?
Oh, World Cup mode completely. Especially like yesterday, all four games were excellent. I know they were all draws, but I thought they were all pretty entertaining and had lots of great storylines. And I think the quality of play thus far in the tournament has been really, really good. And there's been a lot of good games. So, yeah, I'll be glued to my TV all day today. Is this a year for England? Oh, is it ever the year for England? I don't know. Short answer, no.
No.
Well, here's what I'll say. I saw yesterday that there was a report from Ben Jacobs, I believe, who you guys have had on your show before, that Donald Trump is going to be part of the trophy lift like he was at the Club World Cup last summer. So if there's a year for England to win it and Donald Trump to ruin it, then this is that year.
They wouldn't even get to keep the trophy because didn't he keep the Club World trophy or something like that?
He kept it on his mantle. He got one of the medals, yeah. So, yeah, I don't know. It'll be interesting to see. I think there are a lot of expectations around England. I think they should come pretty, you know, easily out of their group. And then it's kind of hard to predict what the knockout round will look like beyond that because of all the third place teams and the moving parts. But, you know, I think it would be likely a tough road for them to get there. But that said, they are one of the favorites. So we'll see. But I always temper my expectations.
Yeah. I always get them up, and then they come crashing down on me. Okay, let's talk about the next, I don't know, 10 days for the Vancouver Canucks. Do you think they'll make a big trade at the draft?
Yeah, it's hard to say. Just because, you know, we don't have a huge body of work from, you know, the new brain trust with the Sedins and Ryan Johnson. So, you know... And will they maybe like could they be really aggressive? I guess we'll wait and see.
