00:00All right. Let's talk about a quick do-age or an owing here. Talk to me about the playoff picture

00:07for just a second. You got the Penguins who just seem to be here or in there. You got the Oilers

00:12who got off to a rough start. So what's your overall perspective when it comes to playoffs?

00:19The Penguins play in Columbus tonight, Case. Right. I don't want to start calling games

00:23in November must wins, but I mean, they're favored on the road. And I don't know if you've

00:28watched them. I've watched them and I'm going, something's got to happen here. Like it's getting

00:34to the point where when they don't stack up the points like Winnipeg is doing right now,

00:38Winnipeg is allowing themselves to get advanced further. So when those road trips and things

00:46happen in February, March and stuff, it's already in the bank. I would pick the Penguins to not make

00:53the playoffs right now, Case. I don't think they're going to make the playoffs. I don't

00:56even think I would tonight in Columbus. I know that's not easy for you. Trust me. These are

01:01tough conversations to have. And then it's a whole different tune and dance come January.

01:05So we'll make sure we keep a pulse on the Penguins.
