00:00i didn't get to hear you on the broadcast but i had to hear what you had to say about the

00:06vegas officiating well look i mean it's a hard-fought game and it was a great game

00:15you know howden was a problem in the game he scored like right away for shift and he was

00:23all over the ice and he competes and i like his game a lot and so like i love the fact that

00:29the rangers went back at him i'm like all right you're not going to just dominate this game we

00:33got enough to worry about with dorfea and stone eichel and marner like yeah it's enough out of

00:38you yeah and so they're battling and in borgen in particular who i was praising uh this week on

00:46on the broadcast for his just he's a dog he's tough he's playing hard i love his game right now and he

00:54was like all right enough and they battled all game and they're changing and they get caught up

01:01in like a change a couple pushes and shoves and chris lee decides to enter the game i mean that

01:06that sort of interaction happens how many times a game that was what i was saying oh yeah like you

01:12know what i'm saying like it was such a the way i described it in my article is a regular shift

01:18like tiff like a regular shift back and forth that happens a million times continue yeah it's

01:25and that's that's exactly it yeah and he's like i'm gonna make listen i'm gonna insert myself into

01:30this great hockey game and he's you know he's animated with it he's throwing his hands up in

01:35the air at msg and i'm like you gotta be kidding me okay like i have a lot of respect for the officials

01:43i think their job it's a hard job they all wanted to play in the nhl and none of them could

01:49this is not they're not here to watch you do your job well and a lot of them do they're humble about

01:57it they work really hard and the ones that the ones that do that and i like chris lee i like a lot i i

02:03just was like what are you doing man yeah it ultimately turns into a five on four vegas who also

02:09has five forwards on their power play they actually had mitch marner playing on one of the defense

02:15pairs so they get up four fours at five on five yeah prior to the goalie poll um just what it was

02:22like it was impressive to see that just a killer instinct to tie the game then over time you miss

02:29a clear way trip like you just yeah decided into the game and then you decided to exit when it's over

02:35and when get right and when game management i'm like it's such a fascinating conversation honestly

02:41the whole notion about game management that was the sort of situation i mean it was a blatant trip

02:48that should have been called no matter what there could have been five straight major power plays and

02:53that's a trip yeah it's a trip 100 it was it was it should it shouldn't be about game management

02:59but in that situation that was like a no-brainer call to me it was the puck carrier

03:05when it's the puck carrier it's not behind the play it's a puck carrier yeah no it was like your

03:12eye should be on the puck carrier and it's a straight up and and then it's a transition it changes it

03:19changes position and then they just you know matthew robertson a little overzealous was too far to the

03:25boards it was a great play the face-off drop that got called back that ultimately led to the game

03:32winner for eichel was happens i would want that for the rangers to be blown dead as well because it

03:38was sort of not uh well mika won the face off right but it wasn't right that happened me got a problem

03:46with the way they were dropping the puck and the circle all game and so he had he had words for the

03:51lines but then the lines look at the circle yeah the he's a right-handed linesman he drops it on

03:58the right side of that circle so it's farther for me to me to go to pull out and turns and that happens

04:04listen that happens all the time correct it's it's uh you can't just let ikes go though he's like

04:13okay yeah that's basically what i you know artemi can give him just a touch like just a little touch

04:21so

04:25it's a good thing but uh

04:29thanks

04:31thank you

04:32thank you

04:35you

04:37thanks

04:41thank you
