Welcome in to the most anticipated 3 p.m. event of the day, Real Kipper and Born, season five. We have technical directors Jake Schultz and Derek Brandeo, assistant producer today, Chris Gallagher, and most importantly of all, we have Gord Stelic today in the Kipper chair. Gord, welcome. Thank you, thank you. First time I've been in the Kipper chair. How's it feel?
It's a little more well-oiled. I don't know what it is. I think he has trouble getting away. Like, you're a little more work and that. So, yeah, feels good.
Feels good to be on board. We're happy to have you here. We're live on Sportsnet 590, The Fan, Sportsnet 960 in Calgary, Sportsnet 650 in Vancouver, Sportsnet 360. God, Sportsnet Plus on YouTube.

Lots going on in the city of Toronto today. I got to believe McKee's the most excited of the three of us. Gord, you got any soccer ties, any excitement about the World Cup?
I got all kinds of excitement about the World Cup. And I think back, you know, I used to go closed circuit at Maple Leaf Gardens. They showed a closed circuit, and our neighbor was the public relations director. And I like, you know, when you happen, I was in a bar like, I don't know, eight years ago, 12 years ago, didn't realize it was the Dutch-oriented one.
All of a sudden, a bunch of orange jerseys came, so you end up staying... Eight hours instead of two hours.
Much longer than you anticipated.
Suddenly this got fun. But obviously the Canadian angle. And we have kitted. We had the great line. I used to do leaf hits on Sportsline. And winning once, Jim Taddy hosting. And the Jays were playing the World Series. I was going extra innings. And the producer goes, you can do it with your shirt off.
Okay.

Chapter 2: What are the highlights from the Hurricanes' Game 5 victory?
See what we can do for you, Mac. Are you paying attention to the World Cup at all? Does it interest you? No. Okay, good talk. All right, let's talk about hockey. People at home are pumped to hear that. Game five of the Stanley Cup playoffs last night. Were you surprised to see Carolina pull ahead 3-2?
Not really. They've slowly taken over the series. I mean, the Bussey kid obviously is a great story. Carter Hart's... I mean, look, what is he, 25, 26 consecutive games? I heard the question last night, and I thought... You know, I didn't think it was a stupid question. I thought it was a pretty good question. But Torts is becoming Torts again. It takes a while, and then he becomes Torts.
So, you know, Bussy's been, to me, a great story. Stahl has been a great story. Slaven has been a great story. Slaven Stahl has really shut down the offense of the Knights, Golden Knights, to be quite honest. Slaven has become a, you know, I mean, we've all known he's a star and a great defenseman. But to me, he's gone to another level with leadership and the way he can shut down superstars.
And Stahl has been an amazing story. I mean... I remember the draft, you know, I remember his draft year. It's like I think of the taves and the stalls and all these kids that were such good players. And I kept missing them. Like, I had the sixth pick in that damn draft. I had the sixth pick when he goes, whatever, second or third. I mean, it just drives me crazy.
And then I watch at 38, how good he is. It's amazing to watch. But Eric was a star. This guy's a star and, and not only stars, but they're exactly what you want in a hockey player. Exactly what you want in a hockey player. It's like Rob Brindamore is exactly what I want in a coach. You know, exactly what I want in a coach. He's smart. He, he, he's, he studies the game.
He's terrific with his players. They know he's not easy on them, but he's not crazy on them. You know, like some of these fools we got running around today. I just I admire Roddy Brendamore as a player and I admire him. I think even more as a coach in that organization. People have no idea how important he is to that organization. How many players have gone there?
Robinson, they got rid of him in Columbus. You know, I'm watching all these guys. Jankowski, I'm watching all these guys. They go, Ehlers, look, Ehlers has become a star. Taylor Hall. So nobody can tell me, you know, credit to management. They've done any, hey, when you're this far, management have done a good job, but he's the glue, Roddy Brendamore.
There's no denying that in my, that's just my own opinion.
Well, and it's like Doug's the perfect guest to start.

Chapter 3: What did Doug MacLean think about John Tortorella's goalie decision?
Did I mention them?
Yeah.
I didn't know if I brought it up or not.
Yeah. Now, hey, so, okay, on the other side, I mean, Rod Brindamore is Carolina through and through. John Tortorella is just the guy that came. He's John Tortorella, who happens to have coached the Vegas Golden Knights for six weeks. So what does he do now? Like, I mean, the goaltending is he's stuck, right? You can't put Aiden Hill in now. So you've lost Carlson.
So what can you look to do to try to counter ā and that great word stave off elimination.
Yeah, because Carlson became one of their most important players. Look, how good has he been since he left Columbus and was picked up in the expansion draft? Unbelievable. And how well he's played for them. And then you see him on the bench with the elbow. You know it's a serious injury. He's a real important guy. Look, Torts came in. Torts came into a toxic situation there.
I mean, that dressing room was toxic. And how does that happen? How does that happen that it becomes that horrific in that dressing room? And I heard Bruce on the other day saying, you know, maybe I could have been easier on them. Easier on them?
There must have been something different you can do than have that room that toxic that torts can come in there and they think he's the second coming of whoever. It was that bad, eh? It was that bad. And I know that for a fact it was that bad. So, you know, it was like, you know, they felt they had no choice but to make a change with eight games left in the season.
I mean, the Islanders did it with four games. I'm not sure why they did it either. If the truth was no one, I mean, I'm not sure that divorce the better coach and Padua. I, I, I, I want us, I know Peter's had good runs, but I'm not sure he's a better coach and Padua. I'm not sure that, or whoever else is available this summer.

Chapter 4: How does Rod Brind'Amour impact the Hurricanes' success?
Yeah, sure should have. God, that would have been one of the most heroic Cups if they had won that one. Jack Eichel with two points last night. Oh, my God. Became the seventh player in NHL history to record multiple 20 assists postseason. Joining Wayne Gretzky, McDavid, Dreisaitl, Kucherov, Doug Gilmore, and Marc Messier. Pretty good company.
People are all over Eichel, you know, for not, I don't know, doing enough. Pretty good hockey him last night.
Yeah, yeah. He's just not scoring. Well, he is doing other things like John Tortorella said, but like Svechnikov, for example, that's exactly. But you know what's incredible that you got Mitch Marder the one game, And now you've got Stahl. And we're talking about Rocco Bouchard and John Beliveau. I know.
Like, I mean, we're not talking 10 years ago about, you know, Rick DiPietro or Paul DiPietro or Chris Contos or John Drews or, you know, whatever that had a great playoff thing. Like, we're talking... The legends of the NCAA parades. 60 years ago about... So, I... Like, I... Like everyone says, first of all, John Tortorella didn't guarantee a game seven.
He just said, I kept my clothes here, right? So I think most of us... Maybe he's going back to hang out. I think most of us are wanting a game seven, I think, because that'll help it be a memorable series. And then I also think, as Sam talked about it, the two days off, I don't like it as a fan or a media person, but I think right now it's a good thing. Do you think they retired last night?
I think the travel isn't easy. It's not the mental. It's not the physical, but also the mental fatigue that I think it's a pretty good reset at this time to have an extra off day for game six. And if there's a game seven, the same thing.
I think the extra day helps Carolina because they are peddled down as a team. And this gives them another day to kind of ramp back up for another one.
You mentioned Jordan Stahl there, Derek. We have a great Brindamore clip on Jordan Stahl. If we want to play that, can we play that here? Clip two on Jordan Stahl, please, Derek Brindamore.
The playoffs, until you've done it and actually lived it and been through it, it's a massive grind mentally and physically. And, you know, you guys have to travel. You know how hard that is. Well, now I'm doing that every night. Doing it at his age just says a lot about him. He's our guy and he's our warrior. I'm really happy for him that you guys are getting to see it.
