Chapter 2: What are the highlights of the Maple Leafs vs. Stars matchup?
And I don't like chirping people when I'm not trying to be funny or make fun of people. But, Hayes, you saw with your own eyes that I'm 6'2 now at 50. Dude, you saw it. Noodles, hang on a sec. I've got to tell Noodles this. Noodles, this guy, I said to him, I don't know where we were, but he looked at me and he goes, you're not 6'2, I'm 6'2. Like he dwarfs over me, Jamie. Like he dwarfs over me.
Anyway, I had to go to Tuck's house today, Darcy Tucker, and I remember Tuck's as 5'10". He's 5'10", all day long. Look at his hockey card, Doogie. It probably says 5'10". He opened the door. I text him later this afternoon. I said, Tux, you look like you're 5'5 now.
He opened the door. It was Tattoo from Fantasy Island. He had a little person.
He shrunk. He shrunk. He shrunk. That's disappointing to hear. I mean, we could test that theory out. I'm sure he'd be willing to get on the desk and do the whole thing.
Dude, before the end of this segment, tell Doogie to cold call him because he confirmed it. He goes, I think I have shrunk.
I mean, it's possible. You guys are both 50 now, right? As you get older, you shrink. Not me.
Not me. And, Jamie, I'm going to show you the next time I stand beside this guy. Because when we were at the Super Bowl, I remember we were in a combo with one of the football players, and I was looking down at Hayes.
Angles. Dude, you're not even close to my height. Like, you're legitimately three inches shorter than I am.
I saw something.

Chapter 3: What memorable moments did Joe Bowen have in his career?
Was it not the 15th anniversary of the station like yesterday?
Yeah, it was. We never mentioned it.
Did you see? Yeah, of course we didn't.
That's pathetic. We probably should have. You're right.
We probably should have. But did you see the pictures that got laid out? There was like 20 pictures. There's one picture of all of us in studio, and Hazer like 6'2", 6'3". There was a mutant at the end. And I asked Steph, I'm like, who is that mutant? And I can't remember. It was like a PR guy for the Leafs.
Oh, really? I'd have to go back and look at that pic.

Chapter 4: How does Darcy Tucker feel about Joe Bowen's calls?
I don't remember.
There was a guy who was like 6'8".
Okay.
And I'm like, who is that monster at the end? Because I think it was Connor Brown was in studio with us, either with the Marlies or whatever. And it must have been the Marlies PR guy. They brought him over. I don't think it was McNaughton, but I think it was like somebody else. And the guy was like 6'8". And all I could think about was like, well, O says he's 6'2".
And, again, I'm going to challenge that because Lindsay's hand was at least three inches away from the bottom of your foot.
She was scared of this guy's shoes, man. She didn't want to come close to that guy's shoes. Oh, really? Yeah. I think she was like, I don't want anything to do with this guy.
Those were gorgeous Italian leather, FYI. Gorgeous. Look at where Lindsay's hand is.
No socks. Look at where her hand is.
That's all angles. That's like John Shannon's goal going into the net.

Chapter 5: What challenges does the Ottawa Senators face this season?
Do you think that you're now 5'5 to 5'7 and you used to be 5'10?
I don't know if he was ever 5'10, though. I mean, I think the hockey card, like everyone, you guys established it, everyone lies on their card. Everyone says they're 6'6", 6'1". I don't know. Look at this guy.
He's five. Look at the front door. There's seven feet above him at the front door.
Right.
Well, he's down a step, though.
He's not standing on the stoop. Yeah, that could be the angle. It could be the angle. He looks wonderful. Yeah, he looks great. He's decked out in leaf gear. That's Hayes' dear friend, right? That is my dear friend, yes.
I love that guy. When you said I saw tux, I'm like, Hayes' dear friend?
Yeah, one of my favorite people. I love that guy. Well, we'll see.

Chapter 6: What insights does Travis Green share about his coaching strategy?
We'll see if he answers. He was down there last night, right? He and Dougie Gilmore were down there, and Joe Bowen was obviously front and center, and The Leafs, if you're pro-tank, it was the most entertaining, appropriate home loss you could have. You get up 3-0, and then all of a sudden it's 3-3, and then it's 5-3. I did a hit with Jay last night. It was 5-3.
Dude, I shot it off at 5-3. I'm like, they won it.
Chapter 7: How does Travis Green view the importance of playoff experience?
Yeah, I end the hit. Kyle, the producer, goes, oh, it's 6-5 Dallas. I go, not possible. Like, it's not possible. My phone was blowing up. And at that point, I thought, oh, it's, you know, guys like our buddy Donnie and all these other people writing me saying they're going to win, they're going to win, this is what's going to happen.
And then somehow they found a way, I guess, to lose, which is an awkward situation. And it sucks that Joe Bowen, Bowen's had a great speech at the end of the game, and I thought they did a great job of promoting him, obviously, and being a big part of the send-off, which also put up a shield for the players.
No one's going to boo the players off the ice when Joe Bowen is getting the send-off, which he absolutely deserved. Forty-plus years as the voice of the Leafs, and it's just not going to be the same without him. Yeah. I don't... You know, there's been other people that have stepped in and called games over the years. Not many, but some.
And he used to do TV, and when he did TV, Dennis Bayak used to call games on 640 back in the day. Dennis was unbelievable at that. Todd Crockers called games and stepped in. Other people, I don't want to miss names. But the thing about Bonesy is he's been remarkably resilient. The Ironman, he shows up every single game and makes calls. And... It's just a wild, wild career. It's a great career.
Like you said, it's unfortunate they never even played a Stanley Cup final game, let alone won one.
Yeah, he said that in his speech, too, but he kind of was, I don't know. Tucks is there. We've got to get Tucks on here.
Oh, we've got him on the line. Okay. Yeah, apparently. Let's see what he's got to say. Let's get right to the source. Oh, do you want to set this up? Because you're making the accusations here.
Tucks, can you admit to these guys that you were 5'10 when you played in the NHL, and now you're between 5'5 and 5'7"? Between 5'5 and 5'7 now.
Honestly, like, seriously, where does this come from?

Chapter 8: What are the expectations for the Senators as they head into the playoffs?
Central Scouting would have him at 5'11", when he was winning Kamloops, I guarantee you.
Now, I know there has been some buffoonery going on with O-Dog saying he's 6'3", which is absolutely... Wrong!
Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.
I said I'm 6'2". I saw you get out of the car today, and there's no chance you're... No chance you're 6'2".
Well, let me ask you this. You've played golf with me and Hayes. When you envision a guy in the tee, am I the same size hitting a golf ball as Hayes? Height? At no time.
Not even close. Hayes looks like that Aberg when he hits the golf ball right now. He is absolutely dialed. I watch him daily hit the golf ball, and he is definitely at least six, two and a half.
That's valid. I'm going up to it. That is a great description of my action. Oh, you'd agree with that, Ludwig.
So if Hayes is Aberg and I'm Craig Stadler is what you're saying.
Right.
