I brought it toward the Coyotes, and I asked them if it was okay if I joined the Spit and Chicklets podcast full-time.

It's a full-time member. Marley just got an assist from Chris Bates.
Whoa, we're buzzing right now. Sonk.

Pinky's Up, they're everywhere, all over the map, every sport. British Premier League pictures where a guy brought him from America and he's drinking them outside, was it Fulham or one of those teams? What? Yeah, it's crazy. It's everywhere.

I I'll tell you right now, man, we got a lot to talk about today. Oh, yeah. Saving Carolina till later. Really? We got a very special who's turning into possibly a superstar. Jackson Blake coming on.
That's going to be great to chat with him. They just they took the flyers and they just shoved them away. They just flicked them away like a booger. We'll talk about that later. That the fact that that series is done. I didn't need them. Bizarre to me. Montreal, they look like a way better hockey club than the Buffalo Sabres. The Minnesota Wilds stay alive, and the Anaheim Ducks have some fight.

Chapter 2: What are the highlights from the recent Sabres game?
I loved it, but I was shocked.
I mean, the Buffalo Sabres are trying to figure out the power play, snapping it around out there, and they're not even showing it. They're just showing Rob Gronkowski being asked about your saber chug and then completely deflects. It's almost like you, like, paid him to deflect.
Because I saw that coming. I go, Jack's going to bring this up because he's a beer chug guy. He's a big, dumb football player, beer chug guy. And I'm like, oh, my God, he just kind of forgot about me. And then he's saying the word high school girls, too. I'm like, what is happening right now?
I thought I was on the Epstein Files for a fucking second there.
Hey, Chris Hansen's like, hey, biz, have a seat.
It's like, where's Liam? It's Chris. Take a seat. Just crazy, crazy behavior. And I didn't realize that Vrabel wasn't his teammate, so obviously I came out firing on social where I'm like, this guy played for the New England Patriots. I mean, his 75-year-old coach... who should be in the Hall of Fame first ballots dating a 25-year-old. We got Tom Brady hanging out with Alex Earl.
We got... We're not even going to get into the Hernandez stuff. We got fucking drunk who I'm Eskimo brothers with, where we fucking...
bibby joe there's a laundry list of shit here even for able the patriot way i mean guys old lady who's got a bun in the oven on a boat cruise basically dating her for five years it might even be vrabel's fucking kid here that we're talking about and the one thing that you got a bone to pick about is me on a fucking dating app matching with like a what 36 or 38 year old girl from buffalo just because i'm trying to get my buffalo wings suck what i'm in town who cares

Chapter 3: How did Rob Gronkowski respond to the chirping?
So back to Piggies Up. I'm glad you brought that up. Murr.
Do you think it started with our commercial, though? Do you think that's what really did it?
I think it was that old woman in the pink jacket that you probably have seen since as well, if I'm going to be honest.
You went to high school with a grunt. Bonnie.
Yeah, Barney Green. It was Barney, yeah. A different Barney thing.
It was Barney Blue, too.
The last year, the Barney Blue stuff, that was another tough chicklets moment. Murr, love that you're with us again. As a Sabres guy, I mean, I'm going to start off. I got to be in Buffalo. I mentioned the fans. I mentioned the atmosphere. I also talked a lot about kind of loving this Montreal team. They're fun to watch play.
Obviously, the crowd at the Bell Center in the playoffs is something that is unlike anywhere else, maybe. Maybe Edmonton. I got to throw that out. But Montreal's in a league of its own, I think we'll say. Montreal, they are overwhelming, this team, Murph. They are... Bullying them. They're outscoring them 11-3 in the last two. It's the first time this playoffs Montreal's won two in a row.
And if I'm a Sabres fan like you right now, I'm kind of panicked a little bit.

Chapter 4: What insights does Jackson Blake provide about the Hurricanes' playoff run?
Although we did mention that Jack has got to be playing. I think he sat out.
He sat out game seven of the Tampa and Struble was playing. And I just thought that, like, obviously Dobson is a game changer and a huge factor. Thought it was ballsy to put him in at a game seven, but you obviously understand why with his puck moving abilities, how much ice time. And you got to get his feet wet at some point, right? What better way to do it then?
But I feel like, especially in this series, inserting Jack Guy was a no-brainer and it's paid dividends. And, yeah, you were going to touch on one thing, Yance.
I was just going to say, I think Buffalo's got to put Shen in. I was just going to, yeah. That's a guy that knows, like, even if he's playing seven minutes, like, if he's out there in that graveyard shift at the end of a game, he's grabbing somebody. He might take a suspension. He might take a fine.
But he knows what it means to go into the next game with some fight and not showing that your team, that you're quitting. Not that they're quitting, but, like, at the end of a game, if shit's not going your way, you can't just take punches in the face. And he's going to, I would bet that he's going to be in next game.
Like Logan Stanley, he's 6'7". He's not in there for his puck handling and his turnovers at the blue line. You're in there to throw some bodies around. And all those scrums, you're the biggest guy on the ice. Shed your mitts if you got it and just start tossing guys around. Get them away from your skill guys.
And Doc hit him with that little punch. Yeah, over the ref.
Yeah. So, Murr, you seem to think that the game got a little bit out of hand with the calls on the Josh Doan trip. Was it on Lane Hudson or Caulfield?
Caulfield.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of the President's Trophy in the playoffs?
I played with Jason. I played with your dad, Jackson. Congrats, buddy. 8-0. Crazy. What a run you're on right now. I think tied for sixth in playoff scoring. How does it feel to have, I mean, what could be 12 days off, I think, before the next round?
Yeah, no, thanks, boys, for having me. No, I know, it's been surreal, honestly. No one would have ever thought we would have started today. No, I know. You know, it's pretty special, though, to get this rest, get this, you know, these days off. I know some people have been asking us whether it's, you know, rust or rest or whatever they've been saying, but in my opinion, I think it's...
No, I think it's good to get the rest. I mean, playoffs, I mean, even when you play only four games in a series, it's still tough on your body and stuff like that. So, you know, if we get the rest and the other teams are, you know, getting a little more banged up, I think that's advantage for us.
And I think if there's one coach that would make sure that you guys don't get too complacent, you guys are probably still getting your workouts in. Practice is probably still very high pace. You guys are probably a well-oiled machine and know exactly what's at stake. So you're not going to let this slip out of your fingers.
No, I know, you're right there, Roddy. But he played, so, you know, he knows exactly what we need. I think that's one of the best parts about having a coach who played is he's been through it, he's done it all, and, you know, he knows what we're going through for sure. But, no, actually, he gave us two days off right now, too. Wow. Pretty special. He's in Cabo. Yeah, right, he was poisoned.
He's in the weight room. He's probably at the gym right now. No, no, Jackson's in Kabul. Yeah, no, Roddy's probably in the room, the weight room, like Whit said.
It feels like every playoffs, there's one line that everyone's talking about, how good they're going, the chemistry. And right now, it's you, Halsey, and Stankhoven. It's a special line to watch. I think you guys got 30 points. You yourself have four goals, seven assists. How fun is it just to go to the rink every day?
It just seems like you guys have been playing together for 10 years, and it's just truly a blessing to watch you guys.
For sure. I mean, Halsey obviously been around a little longer than me and Stanks. But no, I mean, it's been so much fun. Like you said, it's always good when you can go to the rink and, you know, want to be there and want to play. And that's how I felt pretty much the whole year this year and especially in the playoffs now. But no, those guys have been outstanding. Stanks.
