00:03 - You know what mattered to me last night
00:04 was that Buck 62 I hit with the Kings
00:06 with that Kopitar goal.
00:08 Oh my God, what a game last night.
00:10 And I hit it.
00:11 I had the Kings outright to win the game.
00:14 And they got it done.
00:15 - How the hell are these guys doing it?
00:15 - They were up, man.
00:16 - Kopitar and Drew Dowdy,
00:17 they're older than you and I are.
00:18 They're the same age as you and me, these guys.
00:20 They've been around forever.
00:22 - But like, that was such a great game
00:25 and a great goal that changes everything.
00:28 Now you got a series.
00:30 They looked so horrible in game one,
00:31 giving up seven goals.
00:33 And then to see them come back,
00:34 like Dowdy said, we can fix this.
00:36 We can play better.
00:38 We need to win this game
00:39 and then turn it into something.
00:41 And they went out and did it.
00:43 - That's the one thing about the LA Kings, right?
00:45 Some teams you might be overmatched because you're young.
00:48 We haven't been here before.
00:50 We don't have a lot of experience.
00:52 That's not the case with the LA Kings.
00:54 The Kings have experience.
00:55 The Kings are an old hockey team.
00:56 They're not a young team.
00:58 You know, they've got a couple of young players,
00:59 but for the most part,
01:00 the core of their team is an older team
01:03 that's been there and done that.
01:04 And sort of similar to what we talked about
01:06 with the Nuggets and the Lakers.
01:08 It's kind of a bad matchup for them.
01:10 Like of all teams that they get and the LA Kings,
01:13 the third year in a row, they get the Edmonton Oilers.
01:15 And just, you know, it's the playoff format, Scott.
01:18 Something has to be done about it.
01:19 And you know how crazy the passion is
01:21 in Edmonton for hockey.
01:23 They haven't sold out the first two games.
01:25 Now there's not a ton of extra tickets.
01:29 There's not a ton of extra tickets.
01:30 You know, there's a couple of hundred,
01:32 but dude, there's like,
01:33 there was alarmingly like people in Edmonton,
01:35 there was like four empty seats behind the bench
01:37 the other night.
01:38 Six empty seats here and there.
01:41 And what it is is the Oilers are so greedy, bro.
01:44 They triple the cost of the ticket.
01:46 So the ticket that is like 250 bucks in a regular season
01:49 is now 750 bucks.
01:51 And people in Edmonton are tired of losing all the time.
01:55 They're like, we're not paying all this money
01:56 for the first round.
01:57 And it was a big article.
01:59 I tweeted it out and stuff.
02:00 And people were saying, this is the third year in a row
02:04 we played the Kings, man.
02:06 Right?
02:06 Like how many times do you want me to spend 750 bucks
02:09 to see the Kings?
02:10 Like, oh, like they've literally played
02:13 like 10 playoff home games in a row against the Kings, bro.
02:16 Like at what point is it like, okay, like it's enough.
02:19 Like it's fine for TV and you were all betting on it
02:22 and stuff, but if people, you want to get people,
02:25 actually shell out money for this stuff,
02:27 you can't give them the same matchup every year, man.
