Chapter 1: What unique items are sold at Augusta National?
I'm not sure how the TSN crew down at Augusta, because in the pro shop, Hayes, you saw it with your own eyes. You can get Augusta National, Amen Corner, Azalea. There's a dude that's wearing a yellow hat that says, egg salad.
Yes.
Can you imagine if your boy, your best dude, went to Augusta and he came back on the first tee and said, I brought this back from Augusta National, and it said, egg salad?
I can't believe they sell them, but they do, and they have for years. They were being sold, I believe, when I was down there.
Doogie, get the numbers on the sales of the egg salad hats. I can't imagine there are more. Like, it's got to be the lowest selling item. Would you wear one? Like, would you? Bobby Weeks? Dude, Bobby Weeks eats 30 sandwiches a day, and I don't think he'd wear one.
I don't understand where they're going with that. Yeah. You know, it's... Augusta is a classy place. There's so many incredible things in that gift shop.
Imagine walking out of it with an egg salad hat.
That's unique, isn't it? What do you want? It is. It's a stuffy place, right? Look at this guy.
Egg salad.

Chapter 2: What insights does Mike Johnson provide on the Pittsburgh Penguins?
I couldn't even fake a positive reaction saying, oh, wow, like egg salad.
It just has not, like I get it has something to do with Augusta because it's one of the things that they offer, but...
I just don't know the novelty of an egg salad sandwich down there. That's been a tradition for years or something?
Yeah, but you're right, though. Why not peach ice cream on a hat? They've got all these different things they offer down there. I don't know why that's the one that took off. Anyway, we've got to play this Pittsburgh clip, okay? Oh, yeah. Fire it up. So credit to the Penguins because they clinched last night. And listen, they're playing really well, man.
And it looks like it's going to be Pittsburgh-Philly in the first round, which will be electric if those two teams meet. Just incredible. And, you know, every team does this now. Every organization has a social media team, and they look for people that have taken shots and doubted them in the past. And we did. We did. Yes. Now, evidently, TSN's the only place that did.
You'd think maybe someone in Pittsburgh actually had some commentary on them. Nobody cares. What people in Pittsburgh say. Yes, exactly.
Did everyone in Pitt say, oh, these guys are going to be great this year?
Exactly. There's no chance that that was happening in Pittsburgh, considering how bad they've been the last couple of years. But here's a clip to their credit. This is it. This is what they posted online last night.
And when we go back to the Stanley Cup teams, they had death. And they were hard to play against. No longer the case. No one's going to feel sorry for them three cups in the last 15 years. It's been three years and they haven't made the playoffs. Pittsburgh is not competitive this year. You wonder how they're that bad. They're only getting older. This team is so perilous.

Chapter 3: What challenges do the Blue Jays face early in the season?
It's going to keep going south. We'll see where it goes, but they have been certainly impressive so far. Let's go, Irvin. Let's have a great start. Denied by T-Loss, a sprawling save. An absolute star tonight, Stuart Skinner. This has just been an unexpectedly fun season.
Woo!
It's remarkable what this group has done. Penguins train, Ben. Penguins train. I absolutely love everything about their game. They have a blueprint to the way they want to play, and they play a game in and a game out.
All right. So I take some issue with the one, the last clip from me, because I could have been talking about anything.
That is the thing. Those clips could have been about any team in the National Hockey League.
Right.
You want to cherry pick, but there's maybe a good chance.
I probably was talking about Pitt. In fact, I probably know I was.
It's probably bookmarked. I guarantee you somebody down there bookmarked it and said, went through these shows, and it was like, those guys are giving it to us, this guy's giving it to us, and they kept receipts. Yeah, they did. You know what? The thing is, is... Just go about your business. They had a great season. Good on them. They deserve flowers. I think Kyle Dubas had a good year.

Chapter 4: How can the Blue Jays improve their performance?
I kept waiting for them to go through a real slump. They were overachieving, things were going well, but they're going to lose 8-9. Or 12-14 or something. And it never really happened. They never lost control of their spot in the Metro. And to think, whoever they play in the first round, it's going to be Philly, Columbus, or the Islanders. One of those three teams.
They're going to be the heavy favorite to win that series. So it's not just, wow, they made the playoffs. That seems to be a bit of a surprising positive season. They're going to get to the second round. They'll be favored to get to the second round, which speaks maybe to their opponents, but also how good they've been. It's been...
There's been so many stories that have hit positively for them, right? Whether it's Anthony Manta, whether it's Brazo, whether it's Eric Carlson, whether it's Chinnikoff, who like, why didn't anybody else in the league try Chinnikoff and his skill from Columbus? Like, you know, so good on Kyle Dubas, good on that team. And Dan Muse, you're right. He is, you can make a good case for a lot of guys.
You can make a good case for him to be coach of the year.
All right, Johnny, let's get to the heart of this. How come... Yeah, let's please. I don't want... I don't, like, speak out of school, but when the second period started, Hayes leaned over to me and said, Mike Johnson is 35 under at the No Balls Open. And I said, don't ever talk like that to me again. And I said, it's rude, and it's not appropriate. But we did wonder...
A team as bad as this one, how nobody got below a C. So two things can factor in.
These are based on my expectations. So maybe my expectations weren't as high as yours. Like guys not, you know, a guy getting 75 points or William Nylander being 12th in points per game, but having some holes in his game. That's what I expect out of him.

Chapter 5: What are the latest updates on the Masters tournament?
So he doesn't get... the D because he's sort of doing what I expect from him. The team, I did not think they were going to be as good at maybe a sum this year. So I gave him a C minus D plus. So there's, there is that expectation. And the other part about respectfully guys, like when I was growing up, C's are like fails. Like those are the equivalent of failing grades.
A's were really good, B was sort of average, C's were really bad. So maybe I didn't scale it down enough based on C's hit-like failures to me. Maybe that's different to you. That's why you went to college.
Yeah, Johnny, you're talking to three GED guys here. Exactly. It's like, C, I mean.
C's are celebratory.
You know what, Johnny, I'll just go to the game. I said we were only going to spend five minutes on it, and we ended up talking a little bit longer, but... You know, Artie gets his first NHL start, and they let him have 24 shots in the first period, and he's high-fiving guys on the way off. Like, oh, thought he should have been suckering guys, but what did you make of that?
And, you know, to me, I think that's the goalie of the future for the Leafs, and I like him. I thought he played hard last night.
I mean, if you're a teammate of his, you have to appreciate that energy because he had every right to be livid with how that team played. Forget about it being his first start. Maybe you want to take a little extra, given that's the case. But they were awful. Awful. That game could have been 7-1 after the first period. I mean, it probably should have been 5-1.
And you're thinking, what the hell are you guys doing? I came to the NHL for a controlled environment, better play, and I'm getting none of that. This is like worse than the American League. So...
for him to go out and try to be positive and after the game did not say anything poorly about the amount of shots and the amount of chances and just was cool with it all, that would go a long way in that moment with his teammates. But, you know, teams at this time of year, they always have guys starting, like Luke Hames is playing his first game or maybe it's going to be Villeneuve next game.

Chapter 6: Who are the top contenders in the Masters this year?
With Mike Johnson, our TSN hockey analyst. So let me throw out a question for you that I have to believe they're contemplating in Montreal because any combination could still happen here with the Habs. And it's still uncertain. They could win the division. They could finish second, third. Let's take Tampa out of it, even though they won last night.
Tampa's a different beast within the division, clearly, because of their history and presuming health. They'll be, I think, a heavy favorite regardless of who they play. If you're Montreal, I give you these two options, and I'll give you home ice for both. Buffalo or Ottawa, who are you taking in the first round? It's a tough question.
Because Buffalo's been the best team in the NHL for... I want to say Ottawa. I do. Because I think Ottawa's best game is just miserable for people. They give you nothing. They check their tail off. If their goalie is right and gives them... Noodles, what's their record when they get like 900 goaltending? It's like they never lose. They're unbelievable when they get remotely average goaltending.
They don't lose. So if Allmark's in a good spot and playing well, they can skate. They're kind of getting healthier with Thomas Chabot and his miracle arm replacement, which I don't get at all. Go catch it arm.
So...
Seriously, Bionic Arm, whatever he's got going on there, he's Iron Man. I almost want to say Ottawa because I believe Ottawa's very best is just a really tough matchup for anyone if they can get there. I've been a believer in Ottawa for a while and as disjoint... and strange this year has been maybe for Ottawa, they might end up with 100 points.
In what has been a weird year with some of the worst goaltending in the league to get to 100, you know how good you have to be to get 100 points with the 30th best goalies in the league?

Chapter 7: What are the best bets for the weekend's games?
It's almost impossible. Even Vegas, who is a very good team, they're going to end up with, what, 92? So, yeah, I think, oh, you're right. I kind of want to say Ottawa because I think their best is really good. Well, I mean, they could still pass Boston, right? Like, they're two points back of Boston with three games to go. Yeah. So it's all up for grabs, and I don't know.
Who do you guys think is ā now it's clear. It seems like it's going to be five from the Atlantic, three from the Metro, and that Metro spot's kind of wide open. Who do you lean there? Is it Philly? Is it the Islanders? Is it Columbus? Like, who do you think is going to grab that last spot?
Columbus doesn't seem like they can get it back on the rails, man.
Yeah.
They can't score. No, they emptied the tank, and then their car just went into the ditch.
I think it's the Islanders.
It rolled on its side.
They got a tough sked, though, Noodles.
They got... Well, they got Ottawa tomorrow.

Chapter 8: How are injuries impacting the Blue Jays' season?
Him or more cider. Who's been better? Cider. You start running down the list, you're like, he'll be around 10, but he's not like a slam dunk. Oh, he's fifth. He's around that number. And for a teenager, for an 18-year-old kid, it's incredible.
By the way, you just mentioned Evan Bouchard. Do you guys know how many points he has this year? 90. 92 now? 91. 91 points.
What?
But he's always going to be polarizing because we always look at what he's not. I know.
And he had the beginning of the year, Jamie, where it was like, what in the hell is this guy doing? 91 points as a D-man? I don't care if he's on the PP with McDavid or not. That's a lot of damn points, man.
But that's actually where my question was going, Johnny, was you look at Schaefer, but how do you judge a defenseman? Do you judge him on points? Do you judge him on how good they are breaking up plays? Because I still think there's that massive debate on what a defenseman is in the league now because there's defensive defensemen and then there's guys who are hybrids.
And Matthew Schaefer, he's a hybrid. He's Sandus Ozelich. Like, he plays behind the net sometimes in the offensive zone. That's the new age defenseman.
Yeah, Jamie, there's two kinds of defensemen. There's either Brandon Carlo that just wants to literally get it out and has a difficult time making plays. Or everybody else, everyone in the league from a young age, they're in McDavid mode where they get out the plastic sticks and their idea of hockey is, is going around everyone 100 miles an hour and scoring a goal, getting points.
It's almost like even the idea of the team concept, it's just the score clock is somewhat irrelevant to a lot of players where they just literally, they're like, I want to deke around people, I want to dangle, I want points, and whatever happens after that happens after that. That's just the way these guys, that's why there's so many coaches on the bench. Especially.
