Far Down Beauties with Jesse Pierce and Kirsten Kroll. Two hockey minds trapped in bodies that can't skate. They may have never laced them up, but they'll break it all down with sharp takes and plenty of laughs. This is Hockey Talk, the beauty's way.
Jesse Pierce 0:19
Hello. Good morning. Happy Monday. Jesse Pierce, Kirsten Kroll. Tons of hockey to talk about. Obviously, Olympics. You've got high school hockey sections going on. Girls State Tournament starts this week. But the biggest hockey news, Kirsten, that I would like to address. There's two components that I would like to start this week's episode off with. The first one. being Matthew Kachuk, giving us the greatest chirp we have all probably ever heard to Leandra Seidel in yesterday's U.S. vs. Germany preliminary, where he said, always the bridesmaid, eh, Leon? Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.
Kirsten Kroll 0:53
Iconic. Literally, it's poetic. You can't, I think, hit a player harder than that one. Like, that one just... That one is so good just in general, but it hits so much deeper considering Matthew Kachuk was the one to make Leon in the Florida Panthers. Yes. To make Leon in the Edmonton Oilers the bridesmaid second best each time.
Jesse Pierce 1:22
The best thing, too, is before it went viral and made its rounds, I'd heard it live because I was watching the game, but I only caught the always the bridesmaid, never the bride, eh? And I was like, that's got to be to Leandra Seidel. That's got to be. Please tell me it's to Leandra Seidel. And sure enough, once the internet picked up on it and we, in fact, discovered that was the case, right? Because it even goes back, I realized, too. it goes back to the Calgary Edmonton rivalry as well. Right? Like they didn't like each other from there. Like I'm sure that kind of stems, but it just, it just, I think it can hit Leon in so many factors too. Like he's just always the bridesmaid to McDavid's bride as well.
Jesse Pierce 1:58
Even.

What makes Matthew Kachuk's chirp to Leon Draisaitl iconic?

Jesse Pierce 1:58
Yeah.
Kirsten Kroll 1:59
I thought of that as well too. Like right there underneath con our personal good friend, personal good friend of the pod, but man, that was just so good. I also feel like Leon recital is a man. I would not want to piss off. But also, I feel Matthew Kachuk's not a man I'd want to piss off either. But also, I think maybe even a little bit more Leon, because he's got... There's just something about German men.
Jesse Pierce 2:23
It's a very brood. There's a very brooding aspect of him. Exactly. The follow-up, and I don't know if you saw this, and I'll pull up the tweet when we clip this out. The follow-up was Matthew Porter, who was on the ground in the Olympics. I'm not sure his affiliation, so I apologize. But Matthew Porter tweeted out he had asked Quinn Hughes, Minnesota Wild's own Quinn Hughes, about the interaction that Matthew Kachuk had. Like, oh, it was a pretty good chirp. Quinn not only responded with, yep, you know, he's good at that, blah, blah, blah. But it was the follow-up, Kirsten, where Quinn Hughes acknowledged all of the social media memes and viral situations that he has of himself where he sees ghosts. And Quinn Hughes goes, yeah, well, apparently I'm always seeing ghosts, so I've got my own stuff to worry about there.
Jesse Pierce 3:09
And I just... I love it. We're starting to see a little bit of Quinn's personality, I think, more and more in the past month.
Kirsten Kroll 3:16
I think it's because he's not depressed in Minnesota. I think he's genuinely happy here. I really think that's what it is. Also, even more than his comment, it was his outfit. It was the sunglasses. It was... It was the whole look. And I don't say look as in L-O-O-K. It's L-E-W-K.
Jesse Pierce 3:36
Oh, that's fair. Do you think the sunglasses are to ward off the ghosts or just so people don't see them zoning out?
Kirsten Kroll 3:41
Maybe, but the whole ghost thing confuses me because I'm like, I thought Sam Darnold, I mean, I know that it's a whole social media thing with Quinn Hughes seeing ghosts because of how he looks when he's on the bench and how he's just so zoned out. But I thought Sam Darnold was the one that was first seeing ghosts out there. and made the comment originally, then it transferred to Quinn Hughes.
