Alright, here we go. Overdrive off and running. TSN 1050 on the TSN app, your home smart speaker up on TSN 4, up on YouTube Live. Brian Hayes, the O Dog Jeff O'Neill. Jamie Noodles McClennon. What's
going on?
How are we feeling this afternoon?
First strike against Johnny Chaika boys. First strike.
Yeah, what do you got?
You don't think he could have told us about Arizona and we could have set up shop for overdrive Arizona?
That's a great point. That's a very good point. We should have been
four pole at Greyhawk elevated T overdrive booth. Just I don't even care if the Leaps guys go there or not. Just overdrive from Greyhawk Golf Course.
I would have put my hand up to go to Arizona.
I love that idea.
Awesome, man.
You know what
I found amazing? Right.
There's some people and just to be the Leafs are going to Arizona to spend four or five days. I don't know what they're gonna do. Bonding, golf trip. They used to go to Muskoka. They're not anymore, they're going to Arizona. There's actually some people who That are up in arms about it. They're mad like I don't know if they're just mad or they're pissy. It's ridiculous. They're going out there to just do whatever. It's yes, it's Austin Matthews hometown. I think it's fantastic.
You're a supporter of this move. Okay. A hundred percent.
Something different, right?
You're not? It's I I don't have a strong take on it one way or the other. I will say I I do wonder if it's about getting away from the media a little bit too. And all eyes on them. They go up to Muskoka, a lot of Leaf fans. That's a big moment for a lot of Lee fans up north. Right. They practice at the local rink. A lot of local people get out there. Uh this is a true escape, which is what I'm assuming they're trying to do. You know, I found it interesting to go in Arizona again, like they're really trying to make thirty four feel very happy and very comfortable and very at home, which they should.
But let me ask you this. There's great golf in Arizona. It's a great little escape. Do you think they're just going to Arizona for Austin Matthews?
Yes. I'm not saying that's a bad thing. Don't get me wrong. That's like don't don't spin this as oh Hayes is take it's a take and he's yell What if Matthews wasn't on this team, why would you not go to Florida? Why don't you go to Texas?
Arizona's a far
it's a far trip, man.
Players from Arizona, your general manager has made a life there, and you're you're right, they're gonna try something different. This regime is all about doing things differently, whether we like it or not. And instead of doing, hey, we're going up to Muskoka, it's like we are doing opposite George. Mm-hmm. Let's go to Arizona. Go for it. No problem. No problem. And you got lots of people and I get it and all that, but I don't. Lots of people. Like I have no problem with traveling to the States and all that. Everybody Everybody else. Like Hazy's got some idea. Oh, let
me clarify something. This isn't some like political thing. I don't know if that's what you two are driving at.
No, I'm not driving at it at all. But there are some people that are making that. Okay. I I'm not. I'm not.
I hadn't really thought of that angle, I I guess. I mean again, the Leafs the they play in a league where twenty five teams are in the US. Exactly. That's the way it goes. But I uh my my thing was more a little bit surprised based on it's a it's a decent trip. When you got a lot of travel early in the season. Right? Like a lot of travel here. They go through western Canada, they go through California, they go to Utah, Colorado, Vegas within the the first few months of the year. But I'm with you on that. Mix it up. Change it up. Yeah. Why not? If it really doesn't matter if it's hey, we're going to Detroit, you know, we're we're gonna go to Florida, we're gonna go to Washington or whatever. You're you're out of Dodge.
You're getting away from the eyes and there's a lot of them on them right now. And I guess it's the benefit of the shorter preseason where they can do this.
