Transcription

Chapter 1: What updates are shared about the NHL and college hockey?

0.031 - 16.115 Unknown

Hey, Spittin' Chicklets listeners, you can find every episode on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Trust no one and accuse everyone. And who's the bad guy? The official Barstool Sports social deduction game from the brilliant mind of Nick Teraney.

0

16.535 - 26.73 Unknown

In what's quickly becoming the most popular new party game around, players are secretly assigned unique roles with the good guys trying to expose the bad guys and the bad guys doing everything they can to stay hidden.

0

26.71 - 48.38 Unknown

Each game unfolds under alternating day and night phases, with roles like the cool chick, the shy guy, the gambler, el presidente, the mentalist, the planner, the funny guy, and more. Every round is unpredictable, chaotic, and ridiculously fun. Who's the Bad Guy is great for parties, pregames, family gatherings, or groups who just love deception-based games. Game night will never be the same.

0

69.449 - 72.052 Colby Cohen

Get that on camera.

74.295 - 99.007 Ryan Whitney

It's a full time member. Marley just got an assist from Chris B. Whoa, we're buzzing right now. Honk. What is up, everyone? Welcome to episode 636 of the Spitting Chickens podcast. We're going to get a recap on pecan. We pecan biz and the buttered chicken and his trip to the mountains of Arizona. Shout out first, Pink Whitney. Pinky's up. We're talking about it.

99.047 - 108.76 Ryan Whitney

Apparently, it was everywhere in Vegas. The Frozen Four right now. Denver moves on at double overtime. Wisconsin shocks North Dakota, and we have our national title game set up.

108.74 - 132.385 Ryan Whitney

or saturday night but pinkies up everyone in the arena giving merles and g pinkies up and all of a sudden they leave the they leave the rink and they see empty bottles on the ground so pinkies up is working shout out pink whitney shout out pinkies up bottles are the nips hey we do not condone littering no you litter you're a piece of shit wit tell your littering story which one

134.238 - 143.745 Unknown

Oh, he's got a smile on. I can't wait. Why? Didn't you get caught having a party and you threw stuff out and your dad found the trash or something?

Chapter 2: What are the implications of the Frozen Four on college hockey?

305.281 - 311.85 Colby Cohen

Didn't stop. So the next card after Merles hits blackjack, and Merles was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Like, that was my card. That was my blackjack.

0

311.83 - 323.103 Ryan Whitney

Merle should never, ever, I don't want to hear him complain about offside and goalie interference reviews because every time I'm at a blackjack table with him, we're going to the cameras at one point.

0

323.243 - 326.206 Unknown

No fucking way. He's going to Toronto?

0

326.246 - 341.483 Ryan Whitney

He's going to the cameras once a time at a table. He's always, nope, I want to go to the cameras. So for a guy who's, I think, dogged goaltender interference and offside review, he's an instant replay guy at the casino.

0

342.273 - 344.597 Unknown

He has a video review guy checking.

344.617 - 346.019 Ryan Whitney

Yes, he does.

346.48 - 364.297 Unknown

I would say this. If you go to video review and you slow down the table and create a fiasco, if you're wrong, ban. Instant ban from that casino. Never come back. But he's not doing it if he's hot. It should be a minimum bet of like $50,000 that you can go to the cameras. What was he betting when he went to the cameras?

365.098 - 370.564 Colby Cohen

I think he had like $500 on the table, so he would have hit blackjack. That's a nice little hit there.

370.584 - 374.548 Unknown

Okay, that's fair. I thought maybe a green booger.

Chapter 3: How do personal experiences shape the discussion about littering?

520.016 - 531.951 Unknown

Craps too. Craps, the boys. The problem is with the craps is like sometimes when other people come up, it's too easy for other people to walk up and then like, ugh, sometimes the mojo they bring and the attitude get the fuck out of my face.

0

531.931 - 559.477 Ryan Whitney

why you go to the high rollers oh they don't let me in there speaking of uh high rollers and and just more content out of the machine that is biz nasty peak in season two it began with a bang uh literally and figuratively, of the buttered chicken stomp. And I didn't know. I'm not an Indian food guy. Never have been, never will be. But you, apparently, like it, had never tried any, though?

0

559.618 - 560.499 Ryan Whitney

You'd never been to this?

0

561.26 - 579.229 Unknown

I couldn't remember a time where I went to an Indian restaurant. Like, there might be a friend of mine who was like, oh, no, we went like four or five years ago. And I was like, oh, fuck, I don't remember that. But like, I think this was my truly my first like sit down full Indian experience where I got like the butter chicken. I can't even really name the other stuff.

0

579.249 - 596.844 Unknown

Like I'd have to call wanton in here who's sleeping in the next room over. So he's probably losing his mind right now over this blackjack talk. Uh, but, uh, uh, yeah, he brought me there. He's a great, he's great at like finding restaurants and researching. And really he like does a lot of the research for these types of, uh, peaking trips we go on.

596.864 - 606.083 Unknown

And, uh, we just ended up doing a Havasu Falls boys. Uh, I'll say, I think it's ranked as like top five, um, like hikes in the United States.

606.13 - 608.294 Ryan Whitney

Those pictures are nuts. Incredible.

608.314 - 632.956 Unknown

Yeah. Yeah. No, it was unbelievable. So very hard to get these passes, guys. Like, you could go years without, like, trying to get it, and then you just can't because there's a limited amount, and it's actually the most expensive permit that you could buy as far as parks go. It's a $450 permit. to go there and get to enjoy this experience, which is a three-night stay.

633.457 - 656.552 Unknown

So the way it goes is like, so it's actually not, well, I know we call it peaking. Well, in this case, we called it seeking. We seeking because you actually have to walk down into the Grand Canyon, like a part of the Grand Canyon. So that's how it all begins. So it's in Northwest Arizona. You drive to the Havasupai Trailhead. So, like I said, door to door from Scottsdale, it's four hours.

Chapter 4: What are the key takeaways from the playoff race discussions?

2081.257 - 2083.16 Ryan Whitney

It's only Nemitz. That's my point.

0

2083.28 - 2085.884 Unknown

He sure could get a boatload, dude.

0

2085.904 - 2092.501 Colby Cohen

No, no, no. Yeah, and then who's your 2C? You don't replace Hesher. That's a Bergeron light. He's a top 10 center in the NHL.

0

2092.521 - 2098.519 Ryan Whitney

Who do you want, Hesher or Brady Kachuk? If you could, just randomly. Just randomly. Big question.

0

2098.539 - 2098.98 Colby Cohen

Hesher.

2099.483 - 2112.983 Ryan Whitney

Okay. Okay. All right. All right. All right. That's standing your ground. Because I feel like a lot of Devils fans want Brady, Kachuk, and Ottawa fans. We are not the ones behind this right now. We are loving the Sens right now. We are loving the Sens.

2113.003 - 2118.411 Unknown

I think there needs to be a punishment next year if New Jersey doesn't make playoffs. Like a severe punishment.

2118.451 - 2119.973 Ryan Whitney

Like you can't root for them anymore.

2119.953 - 2126.48 Unknown

Well, I've never seen somebody so confident about being so wrong and brutal. His team stinks. They're worse than the Leafs.

Chapter 5: What are the key takeaways from Colby Cohen's insights on college hockey?

5280.843 - 5302.564 Ryan Whitney

And I think we get kind of numb to it. I know I do. And then you see nights like against Utah and against San Jose where you're just reminded like what we're witnessing here. And then what upsets me is it brings up all the trolls and all the different tweets about you have this guy. You still don't have a number one goalie.

0

5302.544 - 5313.69 Ryan Whitney

and you haven't won a Stanley Cup with them, and it's been whatever it is, 11 years. So that part of seeing the dominance and then hearing that noise upsets me a little bit, and I do agree with it to a certain extent.

0

5313.71 - 5315.254 Unknown

Ovi had to wait 13 years.

0

5315.47 - 5322.361 Ryan Whitney

Well, yeah, but Devils, same as Ovi, Devils and Washington. Pasha said it earlier this episode.

0

5323.622 - 5343.553 Unknown

Yeah, and we've always talked about Crosby and Malkin elevating their game when the other guy's out, and now this was his opportunity to do that, especially when things weren't necessarily going that well for Edmonton this year, and then this is what he does down the stretch. Yeah, I'm okay if he gets the MVP. Great sales pitch, Witt.

5344.057 - 5368.057 Ryan Whitney

Staying in the West. Thursday night. Dallas played Minnesota. We are in for an all-time series, guys. It was physical. It was nasty. Minnesota's up 3-2. They end up losing. Robertson gets the winning goal with like nine minutes left. Wyatt Johnson has the sneakiest 44-goal season I've ever seen. I think he's got 25 or 26 power play goals. He's incredible around the net.

5368.077 - 5372.143 Ryan Whitney

I feel like all his goals are just right around the net, like little moves, little head fakes.

5372.223 - 5375.928 Unknown

Reminds me of Gensel a little bit, the way he's able to find those little sneaky areas.

5375.948 - 5377.05 Ryan Whitney

I think he scores more of the rush.

Chapter 6: How is the performance of the NCAA teams impacting the playoffs?

5393.806 - 5397.351 Unknown

I just remember Gensel being pretty good from watching him in the years past.

0

5397.601 - 5419.608 Colby Cohen

what do you guys think will happen in that series? Like, does, does Dallas, does Minnesota have enough? I mean, I know personally, Billy Guerin, I just want him to win and be successful because what he did and the gamble that he took this year and like the way that he swung, obviously you guys know him, like he's such a beauty of a guy too.

0

5419.768 - 5435.931 Colby Cohen

And, and then, you know, the gold medal team he put together and he took a lot of heat for some of the decisions he made for that. And, you know, he just seems, he seems like the former player now that run like is in charge. That doesn't forget what it's like to be a player.

0

5435.951 - 5452.495 Colby Cohen

I feel like a lot of, a lot of conversations I've had, whether I'm like playing or working now in TV, like you talk to former players and like marquee management roles or coaches. And you're like, damn, like, it's crazy how quickly you forget.

0

5452.596 - 5471.618 Colby Cohen

I mean, even at times I, I coach junior hockey, you know, and, and there are times where I'll, maybe I'll say something and I'll be like, you fucking asshole. Like you hated when Bruce Cassidy said that to you, like, or, or, you know, like you just like have to like make sure you're, you're not doing the things that,

5471.598 - 5494.126 Colby Cohen

And with Billy Guerin, like he just strikes me as the guy who's like, no, no, like I'm never losing the DNA of what it's like to be on that side of it. And I feel like that's why, you know, I just, I want to see Minnesota have a, have a deep run. And then I want to see Quinn Hughes resign there because I want them to get rewarded for taking a risk and making that move.

5494.206 - 5514.076 Colby Cohen

And like Quinn Hughes, I mean, you know how often I'm not staying up till that late and watching Vancouver that much the last couple of years, right? Like you see him in the East here and there and, and you'd catch it. But now that he's in, in an easier time zone to watch, like he's like, I think we all got to start talking.

5514.096 - 5523.306 Colby Cohen

I mean, I think it is, but like him and my car, I mean, I feel like he's, he's, it used to be worried about his, I'm worried about his energy and his gas and he has left.

5523.286 - 5539.71 Unknown

I'll say this. To answer your question, I agree with you on the Billy G comment too. The swings he took, the risks he took, and just the fact that he's so connected to the players, telling them to stay in the village. He just gets it. Billy G, it comes easy to him as far as getting it.

Chapter 7: What are the implications of different overtime rules in college hockey?

5554.178 - 5573.037 Ryan Whitney

Murr? Who's that, Johnny Laz? Murr. Yeah, Murr. Murr, what do you mean? I'll tell you, man. Looking at Dallas, though, the game last night was incredible. They're going to have Faska back. They're going to have Hintz back. They're going to have Bunting back. I think it's going to be hard for Minnesota to beat them.

0

5573.497 - 5597.004 Unknown

I want Minnesota to win because I want those fans and Billy G and that organization to experience a bit of a run. I just don't know if we're going to get our wish. We keep going back to the fact that it's ridiculous that they're playing in the first round. It sucks that we got to lose one of them, but I think that... Gun to your head, what are you saying? Gun to your head, who are you picking?

0

5597.545 - 5609.638 Colby Cohen

I mean, it's hard to pick against Dallas to lose any series in the whole playoffs. I mean, the gun to my head, the heart versus the head, obviously, can always go different ways. But you do have, I mean...

0

5609.618 - 5636.821 Colby Cohen

superstars got to be superstars right like your best players got to be your best players and i just you know we'll see like quinn hughes just watching him skate and he can defend like people don't give him credit for how good he defends because he just defends with his feet you know he defends with his stick so i think that's why merles also says that is he he is very anti small d man Yeah, why?

0

5638.263 - 5642.167 Colby Cohen

Lane Hudson, Quinn Hughes, these guys are the best guys to watch, period.

5642.788 - 5659.167 Unknown

He does have a fair argument in the sense of when is the last time your best D-man who has been undersized, when's the last time they've won a Stanley Cup? Yeah. A small number one. So that's his whole backbone to his argument, which he keeps...

5659.147 - 5678.84 Unknown

kind of like rehashing every time he makes the point to label Minnesota as a fraud squad he was saying the same thing about LA last year the whole year like giving it to me because I was rooting for them but they obviously had a pretty good series against Edmonton they were a fraud squad they just ran up against a fucking giant like they always do So, I don't know.

5679.08 - 5683.085 Colby Cohen

I saw Merle's last night after the game. Was he at the blackjack table?

Chapter 8: What are the final thoughts on the future of college hockey?

5684.186 - 5700.867 Colby Cohen

No, he was hanging out at the sports book. We were looking for a place to eat after, Butchie and I. But we were supposed to go to dinner the other night. Butch Goring? We came in. No, no, Butchie. Sorry, not your boy, Butch Goring. No, no, John Butchagross.

0

5701.227 - 5702.569 Unknown

Oh, you call him Butchie?

0

5702.549 - 5723.544 Colby Cohen

Yeah. I call and everybody's always like, Oh no. Cause like, that's obviously everybody calls Bruce Cassidy, but she, so it's, it's, I get, I get, I get people tied up on that one, but I, so I get in, we set up a dinner. G G came to dinner too. It was like me, but she, um, you know, some, some of our buddies that are here and I was like, is Merle's coming? And he's like, no, no, he's on a heater.

0

5723.564 - 5738.034 Colby Cohen

He's not coming to dinner. We had like an unreal dinner at catch. in Vegas and Merle's just like no showed on us. Cause I think he was on a heater on the craps table. You know, Merle's he's, he's, you need Merle's at dinner. He's a, he's like the one that doesn't eat.

0

5738.635 - 5739.417 Ryan Whitney

He doesn't eat though.

5739.697 - 5750.219 Unknown

This guy Merle's has very, very strong opinions. Very strong opinions. He's very critical in the group chat. I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like it.

5750.239 - 5754.988 Ryan Whitney

I actually said last night, Murr, you got a couple Murr takes for me for the show tomorrow?

5755.529 - 5758.054 Unknown

Saying Minnesota's a fraud squad's a bit much.

5758.321 - 5779.329 Ryan Whitney

This was before the games on Thursday night. He said, if the Ducks lose tonight, they're going to miss the playoffs. They've rolled over San Jose. He said, Verhoff on North Dakota, if that's the number two pick, holy shit. Very, very, very shaky. And his third one was, the Oilers should sign North Dakota's goalie and try to let him run the table.
