03:07Target. The cats were in the White House yesterday. Cats in the White House yesterday.

03:12Cats in the White House. That is right. Donald Trump got a jersey. Did I come and get them?

03:20Yeah, that's funny. That's a point. Funny's funny. We get a point for Leroy.

03:27Shake your hand and they put cups on you. Yeah, man. Donald Trump says that he was glued to get

03:33he's very close with Vinny Viola. Vinny Viola was almost, I think, his secretary of the Army

03:36or something like that. So he's very close to the Violas. And he said that he was glued to Game

03:44seven. Want to make sure the cats didn't blow it. Both teams showed tremendous willpower and

03:50athletic talent, unbelievable talent. But in the end, the Panthers stood the ground and did what

03:56you have to do as a champion. You can't be a champion unless you could go through something

04:00like that. And I can tell you, it was hell for them that seventh game going to the seventh game

04:06had to be hell because you're either going to win and really be praised because you came from

04:14such a horrible position to being life threatening. Right. I mean, that would have

04:21been just unbelievable. We've seen them. We've seen it happen. Happens a lot, actually. But you

04:27didn't let it happen to you. It's an incredible achievement. And I just want to tell you, you

04:31fought for every last point. And it was just something I watched, Mr. Commissioner. I was

04:36watching that sucker for maybe the wrong reasons because of that guy. And I was hooked, too,

04:42because you fell in love with that team, the guts and the courage they had. You really

04:46started to really like them. They're great people. And now I see them. And in fact, I like them so

04:51much. I said, we'll get rid of the fake news media very soon. And we're going to go to the Oval

04:56Office and we're going to take some pictures in the Oval Office. Normally, we don't do that,

05:01but we're going to do it for this team and for you. And we'll take unless you don't want to go.

05:06You can go home a little bit. I think everybody said no. No, thanks.

05:11This guy's a character. I'm not going to lie to you. Just like hearing him talk is just like

05:15he really is. He's a chuck of politics.

05:18I do feel like he was watching the game. I do feel like he was. He probably was watching the

05:22game. If that's your friend, if that's your friend, I mean, listen, he goes to a lot of UFC

05:27events. He says, are you ready for this one? What's that? For the love of God, I'd rather

05:31listen to McDaniel. You want to hear him give love to Sergei Bobrovsky? I got to tell you.

05:41Regardless of who you're watching, I'm not going to lie to you. I'm not going to lie to you.

05:46Regardless of who the president is to visit the white house after winning the championship,

05:52like it's a cool thing. Yeah, for sure. Right. And so I don't like, I don't read into it.

05:58Even Barkoff was, even Barkoff was saying, he goes, listen, I'm not American,

06:02but this is, you realize it's a big deal. Right. Here was president Trump giving a big shout out

06:11to our guy, Sergei Bobrovsky. Goalie Sergei Bobrovsky, and he was incredible.

06:18Oh, I got to see him. Where is he? How good is he? You were, you were, I mean,

06:32hall of fame and even how old are you? Boy, I tell you, you were unbelievable. What a,

06:38what an amazing job you did. And there was a lot of pressure and I made it that,

06:45that deal, that game seven, you guys had to be like, uh, man, and you played great. That was

06:50great. Great job. You did on behalf of everybody that watched. Thank you, Bob. It was nothing

06:55short of phenomenal during the finals and the first 40 minutes of game one, Bob made an astounding

07:0125 saves. He's wow. He's the first goalie to get a shutout in game one of the Stanley cup in 13

07:08years. And his 23 saves in game seven were absolutely crucial to securing very, very tight

07:15victory. Trump becomes his career is an undrafted free agent that is now a Stanley cup champion.

07:22And we'll go down as one of the great goalkeepers in all time history. It's really, really a big,

07:28a big honor for you, especially what you were undrafted. So he made a good deal. In other words,

07:34it's the best thing you'd like to find more like that. Huh?

07:38What a great achievement, Bob. Congratulations.

07:42That seems like cheap labor.

07:48Trump does more show prep than Lee. Wow. Woo. I can read stats too.

07:55David's right. You should ask him the hockey questions.

07:57This guy is good. I didn't know Bob was undrafted. I didn't know that

08:02Philly. What a gum up. Yeah, that's crazy. One of the premier goalies of all time. Where is he?

08:14I got to look at him. Look at this face. You want this hat? I know y'all like my hat.

08:20It would have been great if to escalate tensions with Canada. He would have been like,

08:23they shouldn't have never given that to McDavid.

08:28Cons might. That's the real con here.

08:31Can't hear him clap those tiny hands. You guys are mean.

08:36See, they say politics don't mix with sports to me, going to the, going to the white house

08:44after winning a championship, the first team of the, of the, of this new administration

08:50has nothing to me to do with politics. It's about like, yeah, man, I went to the white house.

08:56It means one championship. These are some of the perks of winning the championship.

09:00I definitely want to pee in a fancy white house toilet. Oh, you know,

09:04no, no, no. They, you don't go to the fancy. They have public toilets, but I'm a champion.

09:11If I was a champion, I don't get to go down the hall on the right. Get out of here. You're talking

09:16about if Sergei Bobrovsky had to pee, he's not getting to go to the oval office. They,

09:20they actually closed the white house for that day. What? No, it's not a twilight hat.

09:30I can't go in there and use a fancy toilet. Ridiculous. That is ridiculous. Let's hear

09:36one more. This is him. Uh, you know, some of us were tough on Carter, but not president Trump,

09:41Jesus. But the title couldn't have been one. If you didn't have a man named Carter

09:48Verhagey. Carter Verhagey. Why did he put that?

09:57Cause I heard it so many times during the, during the service. I heard, I said, the air is right.

10:04But I, uh, I heard that name so much. Verhagey is scoring champion and he's scoring. And you

10:12really, the opening goal of that game was very important. Wasn't it? That put you in a position

10:16where got you the butterflies into the oats. Way to go. Congratulations. That's great job.

10:23Everybody. Carter skillfully directed a shot past the Oilers goalie and gave the

10:29Panthers your first lead in the series since game three.

10:33I don't like, I don't like what Wade just paid Wade. Oh, six MV three says, imagine the heat

10:38when the championship Tobin gets fan access and ask Trump a question. And so it's World War three.

10:43Yeah. I don't like that. Hey, I gotta tell you, I can see it.

10:51You don't want me as a white house correspondent. No,

10:55no, correct. No.

11:02What? Not a real law student tariff. Yeah. Come on. Oh man. Anyway, congrats to the Panthers

11:12big game tonight. They are taking on the Washington capitals. Number one in the East.

11:17And, uh, you of course have games. They actually play well. Oh yeah. Isn't it crazy? Yep. Like

11:23when the juices get flowing. Oh, they answered the bell. Yep. Absolutely.
