Ryan Rishaug 1:26

Good, good. I got to give you guys a heads up, though. So it's pushing 1 a.m. here. And the bus ride back to the hotel normally is an empty bus at this hour. But we've loaded onto a bus with about 30 paramedics. So if it's a little loud around me, they're a boisterous, super fun group. They had a long day of work. So we're going to forgive them if they're a little loud around us.

Aidan Ganim 1:50

Yeah, no concern there. It's all good. Actually, Tizen, the first question I wanted to ask you, obviously not all those paramedics are Canadian hockey fans, but what's it like over there? What's the atmosphere like for Canadian fans in Italy right now?

Ryan Rishaug 2:04

It's pretty cool. You see them everywhere. I mean, well, I shouldn't say everywhere. I've been to two places. I've been to the Duomo down at the center of the city and walked all around there, and Canadians are everywhere. uh, and fired up. Like we're seeing lots of, uh, Canadian tukes and hats and flags. And it's one of the things I love about coming to the Olympics is seeing Canada represented when you're in a different country on mass, the way it is. Uh, it's very cool. And then the rink has been unreal, like tons and tons of fans and just so many amazing people to talk to. And, uh, yeah, it's been really good, man. It's been really good. And I think there's been some nervous moments, but at the end of the day, their team gets to play for gold.

Ryan Rishaug 2:47

And, uh, Yeah, it just feels right, I would say.

Cam Moon 2:50

Shager, Cam Moon here. I expected it might be a little loud around you at this point, not because you're on a bus with a bunch of paramedics, but maybe you're somewhere else. Anyway, you stick to your story. It's radio. If you say you're on a bus with paramedics, hey, you're on a bus with paramedics. That's fine. Your thoughts on the game today, Canada-Finland, just what you saw and taking it all in.

What is the setup for Ryan Rishaug's spotlight conversation and sponsorship details?

Cam Moon 3:16

What did you think?

Ryan Rishaug 3:18

Well, I mean, tighter than they wanted it to be. I mean, you got to come from behind a couple of goals. Those are self-inflicted wounds. Guys like, you know, the penalty from Bennett was awful. You know, giving up a shorthanded goal was awful. Like, those are just things that at this level you shouldn't be doing. And they knew it. But they found a way, right? And that's what matters. So you get the win, you get to move on. But if you really want to dissect it, like, there's some concerning stuff going on. I mean, this team, since Crosby got hurt, and even a little before that, I mean, it was feeling like a one-line team. And John Cooper had been searching for something else to work. He found it tonight, like the Wilson, Marchand, and Bennett line, you know, was good for them.

Ryan Rishaug 4:03

And they used them late. So you've got that, and then you've got Connor and Celebrini have been really good together. But Mooner, how many years have we been watching Nate McKinnon play for?
