Florida Panthers to Clinch Game 6 vs Oilers?

WQAM-AM / AM 560 Sports WQAM

Tobin and Leroy preview tonight's game! What will the Oilers do with their Goalie position?

Transcript

00:00It's off Lou Osterinan who grabs control of the puck, hands it out of the zone, and the Panthers start out.

00:05Bennett out of the box, maybe a two-on-one, yes it is. Bennett right circle walks in, shot, and he scores!

00:10Fresh off serving the penalty! Sam Bennett takes the pass, bolts into the right circle,

00:15and the Panthers are up by a 4-3 score with 4.47 to go here in the second.

00:30Oh, there you have Game 5, first round of the Cats.

00:35Does it all reach a crescendo tonight?

00:40Hello, Leroy.

00:41Hello. Is this one of those games you're going to watch the first five minutes and get an idea of where the Panthers are

00:45versus where Edmonton is? Because the first five minutes of pretty much every game

00:50has pretty much told you what kind of game it's going to be.

00:54Well, not necessarily. I mean, the Cats have jumped out to a lot of leads and then have blown them too.

00:59So, I don't think you could take any just start, for an example, but that certainly was the case the last game.

01:06Right.

01:07So, I think there is, you know, there is a semblance from Game 5 to now, maybe.

01:13But we've seen some other ones that we've gotten out hot and heavy, and then that hasn't held.

01:19I hope that, you know, because I feel like the Cats are going to come in juiced up tonight.

01:23I think how much, you know, and this is amazing to me because we've seen the Panthers,

01:29over long series, just beat their opponent up, wear them down, right?

01:36We've seen it over and over again the last couple of years.

01:39And I'm wondering how much of what they're saying about Edmonton is that they're tired

01:45or is it because they're beat up?

01:49Right?

01:49Because you can't use that excuse forever.

01:51This is for the Stanley Cup.

01:53I mean, everybody's beat up.

01:55I mean, Matthew Kachuk's a day removed from telling you I didn't know I was going to play

02:00in the Tampa series.

02:01No, I know.

02:02But that's what I'm asking.

02:03I think, like, the biggest thing that they got going on right now, they don't seem to have

02:08a lot of faith in their game because they don't know which goalie to go to because they think

02:14that's going to make a difference.

02:15Right.

02:16I don't know if they've made that choice, but I think that's the trend everybody thinks

02:21it's going.

02:23Why?

02:25Because he's their guy.

02:27You know?

02:27I mean, he's their guy until he wasn't.

02:29He's their guy until he wasn't.

02:31But I think that's probably where they're going to...

02:34I would imagine he's going to start.

02:36Now, you know, and I think you just go down with Skinner.

02:40Like, I think that's probably their logic on it is like, hey, we got the game from

02:46Pickard and now we didn't get the game from Pickard.

02:50So we're going to go back to Skinner.

02:52That would be my guess.

02:53Is goalie one of those situations?

02:55If you have two goalies, you have no goalies.

02:57Like quarterback?

03:00Yeah.

03:01They just don't know.

03:01They don't have Bob.

03:03That's what you just don't have.

03:04But Sergey Bobrovsky.

03:05You just don't have Sergey.

03:07You don't have a legend.

03:08But the funny thing about it is, is that even in the same situations where Bob was struggling

03:14in stretches, Paul Maurice will come out and say, yeah, we got him out of the game, but

03:19he's our guy.

03:20Like, yeah, we play the next game.

03:25Bob's going to be in between the pipes and we're going to go from there.

03:28And that's it.

03:29Edmonton's never really said that.

03:31Like every...

03:32Yeah, because it's like one of these things where like, you know, it's like these dummies

03:35on the broadcast who are like, they think they've solved something because like, hey,

03:39they go high on Bob.

03:40It's like, well, one, because it's like impossible to get past his legs.

03:44He's a frigging...

03:46He's a ninja between the pipes.

03:48Right.

03:48And second of all, like, yeah, I would think that you have Leon Dreisaitl and you have

03:52Connor McDavid and you have, you know, the offensive hub that they do.

03:56Yes.

03:57Some are going to get by him every once in a while when he can't frigging see or blast.

04:01It's going to happen.

04:03And that's what Paul Maurice is pointing.

04:05He goes, these guys could give up eight goals a game.

04:08And the goaltending has been amazing because of some of the saves they have to come up with.

04:12Right.

04:13So that's like, that's just the president.

04:15I think that Bob's superpower is, look, tonight could be a 5-4 game.

04:20But just my confidence in him as a goalie is if he gives up the fourth, he's going to

04:26be locked in to say, hey, if we get to overtime, I'm going to shut that bleep down.

04:32Because how many times do we have to see it from him to know that he's going to do it?

04:36His superpowers, he doesn't get rattled.

04:39Like, that's the thing.

04:40And I think with their thought process on Skinner, Skinner's had a checkered past as a goalie.

04:48And, you know, he could either look like the best guy in the world or he looks like a bum.

04:52And is it their fault, though, for not giving him that support?

04:57Because sometimes that would help.

04:59If you're struggling and you're, you're, you're, it happens in all sports.

05:03Maybe he can be Bob's backup next year.

05:05He can learn to be other goalie.

05:07No.

05:08Got stole ours, the, the, the, the Maple Leafs job.

05:12He sure did.

05:13Yeah, but I like our backup goalie.

05:14Doesn't he troll the other goalie?

05:16That's good.

05:16I like his hand a check.

05:18Because he, he literally has nothing to do.

05:20Yeah, he's a, he's a backup quarterback.

05:23Most liked guy on the team.

05:25They were like, they like Bob more.

05:28True.

05:29I think they like Bob more.

05:30Bob has gotten them out of some very iffy situations over the, the course of this playoff.

05:38This is a, it's very exciting.

05:40I can't wait to see tonight's action.

05:42When we were talking, when you were dealing with your, your pool fellow there, it seems like Bobby Lou is banging the drum tonight.

05:49Wait, okay.

05:50Bobby Lou.

05:51All right, that's it.

05:52We bring in Bobby Lou for the, for the game.

05:55Wait, who banged a drum for game seven last year?

05:58Bobby Lou.

05:58There you go.

05:59See, see, I'm, I'm catching on to this.

06:04You go, boy.

06:05Good for you.

06:06Good for you, man.

06:07It only took me, what, 25 years out of the league to figure out fandom?

06:13Hey, so hold on.

06:15Let's get back to task at hand.

06:16So are you going tonight?

06:18I don't know.

06:19What do you mean?

06:19You don't know.

06:21Did this happen with game seven last year too?

06:22And you bowed out?

06:23Yeah.

06:24Get your ass to that game.

06:25What are you doing, Leroy?

06:27You don't want to see one of the coolest things in sports?

06:29Leroy, it's not a thought.

06:30I do.

06:31But, but here's, here's, put me in your pocket.

06:35I'm going to be annoyed if you don't go to the game.

06:36Seriously.

06:37Yeah.

06:37No.

06:39Maybe we can do the trench coat.

06:40You are the least excited person to have a ticket for this game.

06:43If you, if you give me any bullhunky, like crowd or time.

06:48Oh yeah.

06:48Or getting out of the parking lot.

06:50It's just, you literally couldn't have an easier time getting to the, you, what does

06:56it cost?

06:56$3 on Uber to get from your house to the, they won't come.

07:00They say the ride's too short.

07:02Yeah.

07:02Like just, just get your ass to the game tonight.

07:05What are you talking about?

07:06That's a, that's a, that's a once in a sports fandom chance.

07:11All right.

07:12Who invited you?

07:13Who invited you?

07:14Who invited you?

07:15Who invited you?

07:16It was Bernie.

07:16I know who it is.

07:17Hey, bro.

07:19Tay Tay gonna be there?

07:21Oh no.

07:22Unconfirmed.

07:24Unconfirmed.

07:24Okay.

07:25Unconfirmed.

07:25I believe, uh, TNT's, uh, Jackie Redman was on McAfee yesterday saying that she heard

07:31that they were, but then had to walk it back a little bit.

07:33Cause I guess they didn't want too much fanfare, I guess.

07:35I don't know.

07:36Okay.

07:36Listen though.

07:37If they go to the game and we lose, are they dead?

07:41I mean, come on.

07:42Uh, as far as fans are concerned, of course, obviously we love Tay Tay and Travis alive.

07:46Everything.

07:46I just mean, are they, are they, are they dead to Panthers fans?

07:49Yes.

07:49But I won't even wish that because we're going to win tonight.

07:51So it doesn't matter.

07:54I, uh, I, I, I would say that's not a great run.

07:59Yeah.

08:00Two Panthers game.

08:01Now the Panthers have been much more dominant on the road this year.

08:04Yeah.

08:05Um, I don't know.

08:08I'll have to, I'll have to, they tied the record because remember before the last game, Tobin

08:13said, I hope they don't have to break the record.

08:16They don't have to break them.

08:17Yeah.

08:18I hope not.

08:19Yeah.

08:19So they tied the record.

08:22Um, it's, it's one of the things is like, I'll take winning the cup wherever I don't care,

08:28but I really love, I would love to see them once again, just take the cup to the ocean.

08:32Like, that's what I want.

08:33I want tomorrow a bunch of hungover.

08:35Tomorrow.

08:37Well, yeah.

08:37It seems like a hockey team.

08:38That's not going to go right to the elbow room after the game.

08:41I don't know what they're going to be hungover anyway, tomorrow.

08:45It feels like they're going to go to, they're going to go from rainforest cafe to every booby

08:50bar to elbow room that, that takes and take the cup with them.

08:54I don't know that cup's going to see some things tonight.

08:57If it was going to send a text to Kachuk.

09:00Yes, we are open.

09:02The table was ready.

09:05Yes.

09:06We have a special table for the cup and for Kachuk.

09:10You think Kachuk just like says, Hey, I have a, uh, I have a reservation to make for Stanley.

09:15Lord Stanley.

09:17Come on in.

09:18That is tough.

09:19No reservation needed.

09:21What a time, man.

09:23What a time to be alive.

09:24I'm excited.

09:26And, and, um, you don't look excited.

09:29Are you going to the game or what?

09:30Come on.

09:31Come on, Leroy.

09:32Make a choice.

09:33Let's go.

09:34Go to the game, go to the game, go to the game, go to the game.

09:46That's not really supposed to be a reaction.

09:49I'm just saying.

09:50He's, he's bumming me out.

09:52Come on.

09:53So sorry.

09:55So sorry.

09:57So sorry.

09:57You have to be burdened with seeing a championship.

10:01I want to go to the game.

10:03Be right back.

10:05This is such a bastard.

10:06Get out of here.

10:07He is.

10:08Hey, he is.

10:08What a.

10:09I'm going to bat him from the show today.

10:11He's, he's, uh, he's, he's trying my patience.

10:14Solid goaltending today.

10:16Yeah.

10:16No, I'm not going to the game.

10:18I'm not that special.

10:19There's going to be some other solid gold in the cat's future tonight.

10:21Yeah.

10:23That's probably too far for him.

10:24Where is that over there?

10:26Hmm.

10:26What?

10:27Not too far from here.

10:27Right.

10:28I think solid gold is close from here.

10:30What would be the place they would go to in Broward?

10:32Cheetah.

10:33Broward.

10:33Probably Cheetah, right?

10:34Yeah.

10:34Cheetah for sure.

10:35One of the Cheetahs.

10:36Yeah.

10:36Tootsie now.

10:37Tootsie's too far.

10:38Too far south.

10:38Seems like, uh, seems like Cheetah's right up their alley.

10:40So you know what?

10:41I'll go and I'll wait for them at Cheetah.

10:42Hey, a couple of big cats.

10:44Pandas and Cheetahs.

10:45Just waiting for my team.

10:46I'm generous.

10:47Just waiting for my team here.

10:49I'll reserve a spot.

10:49Boots on the ground.

10:50Boots on the ground?

10:51Hopefully no boobs on the ground.

10:52Hopefully not.

10:54Hopefully not.

10:55That's why I wore my boots today.

10:57Speaking of, Exotica is returning to Miami Airport Convention Center on June 27th to the

11:0329th.

11:04You can win a four pack of tickets to go for your chance to win.

11:08Go to the contest page at WQAM.com and enter.

11:15Solid.

11:16Didn't know I had to be, you know, straight up.

11:19It's going to be Exotica tonight, though.

11:20I'm going to tell you something right now.

11:23Technically, this isn't the liner.

11:24Yeah.

11:25It's going to be Exotica tonight in the cat's barn.

11:29It's easy.

11:32I love that kid.

11:32Is he going to be in the building?

11:33What happened to that kid?

11:36He grew up.

11:37He's matured.

11:38He's 13.

11:39He's got a hair on his chest.

11:40Can't be shirtless.

11:41Is he like, what's that?

11:42What's that?

11:43The kid who's always at the fights?

11:45Is it Hezbollah?

11:46Oh, Hezbollah.

11:47Hezbollah, who's like actually 27 years old and they treat him like a baby.

11:51I love him.

11:52I think Mike Tyson carried him like a baby.

11:55He like squeezed his cheeks and everything.

11:57This kid's like, I have car insurance, sir.

11:59What, sir?
