My weekend was pretty good. Yeah, lots of sports. I found myself trapped on Sunday morning with tennis going on and Jays were playing and all sorts of stuff happening. World Championship hockey. So lots of sports. Plus, I was able to get some weed whacking done, which I was thankful for. Although you almost had to do this show today on your own, Matt. A chunk of the weed whacker tremors line broke free and came rebounding back towards my ankle and lashed my, you know, the puffy vein that goes over top of the outside of your ankle bone? Yes. It perfectly, I thought I was going to bleed out on the driveway. I really did. Is this a hospital visit? No, no, no. I was able to tap it down, stop the bleeding, but I thought it was going to end right there.
I was like, that's a big vein I just opened up, but this could be it.
But he's here with us on Monday. Why? Because it's the Cup. It's the Stanley Cup playoffs, Blake, and we fight through injury sickness in my case. I spent the weekend trying to get well. I haven't brewed. Oh, my gosh. This has been a doozy. And Mike was out drinking beers at the Vancouver Canadiens game. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Lucky guy. We did some gardening around the place as well. Look at you. When I say we, she did a lot of, was it called gardening when it's like potter slick, when it's a few plants in a. Yeah, sure. So she did that. I was called in. How do you think it looks? Yeah. But she's got this app where you take a photo of the plant or the flower. Yeah. And then it diagnoses like what's wrong, whether it needs sun or water, too much water, whether you want to give it some nutrients.
Amazing technology. All right, start with the Daily Poll question. Should the Canucks spend an asset to acquire Brendan Gallagher, he of the Montreal Canadiens, he, of course, late of the Vancouver Giants in his junior hockey career. That was a long, long time ago. You can vote yes, you can vote no. Do so at the Secure Some Price X and YouTube channels. Gallagher met the massive Montreal media corps today as the Habs cleaned out their lockers and gave an emotional farewell to the only city and only NHL franchise in He's known. Take a listen. Respect. No, I mean...
First and foremost, so thankful and so fortunate to have spent as much time as I have here. The fans, right from day one, it's been truly a privilege to play in front of them. It's an opportunity that not a lot of players get in the SEA League. I've got to do it for 14 years now. It's not lost on me how special it was to call the Bell Centre home. The very, very first time I stepped foot in this organization, you know, management, coaches, teammates have had a long years. I can't, there's been ups and downs, but I don't have a single regret. So it's pretty clear I'll be kind of moving on here. But, you know, incredibly, incredibly
Sorry. Jeez. I'm just very fortunate.
Wow.
That's a lot of emotion there. Yeah.
It was four terrific seasons with the Vancouver Giants. Just a half year in the AHL in terms of seasoning before he would go on to play 990 games with the Montreal Canadiens, including playoffs. Blakey joined a pretty good Montreal team. Then went through some lean years. Then they rose up in the bubble, you remember, made the cup final. Then went through some more lean years. Like he saw several incarnations of the Canadians and their competitiveness level. He would go on to say, if it were up to him, he'd stay in Montreal for the rest of his career, but at least he'll have a say in where he goes. And he specifically, when asked about the opportunity to go home to Vancouver, he lives in Tawasin. said it was one, an opportunity he would welcome.
