00:00You know, I seriously thought they'd rue the day they let him go, Mike, that they let Flurry
00:09leave Pittsburgh because they basically sold him out for Murray.
00:16And then Murray's career, I won't deny he was part of two cups.
00:21I won't deny he did the job.
00:23But then when he left, he got waived by Toronto.
00:27He doesn't even matter anymore in the NHL at all.
00:29He doesn't even have a gig.
00:31And Flurry, the whole time, he went to Chicago, he went to Minnesota.
00:37He always could still play.
00:39And I thought the Penguins, the Penguins have had the worst goaltending I've ever seen in
00:44my life since the day they got rid of him.
00:47They have literally, I mean, these guys, they've got, oh my God, they're so bad.
00:52Oh, they're so bad.
00:53They're so awful.
00:54I mean, they have no chance to win with these goalies.
00:58It doesn't matter who they start.
01:00All of these guys that they have are awful.
01:02All of them, including their, you know, their starter, their backup, the young kid, Bloomcliff,
01:07they all suck.
01:08They're all horrible.
01:09And you know it.
01:10Jari's horrible.
01:11He's like the River Kwai.
01:12I mean, my guy is like the Suez Canal.
01:15He literally is.
01:17He stinks.
01:18It will be an emotional scene tonight with the Flower in between the pipes for the Minnesota
01:24Wild as they come to Hockey Night at the PPG in Pittsburgh.
01:27There is Flower yesterday, Scotty.
01:29Very emotional.
01:30I don't know.
01:31Like, I don't want anything different than another game, right?
01:35Like, don't expect much else.
01:39I don't know, I feel like sometimes, growing older, I get a little softer than I used to.
01:46With emotions, it feels like, I don't know, if they're kids or something, but anyway.
01:50Yeah, so I think just maybe deep breath, you know, look around, take, take a good look
01:56around, right?
01:57To keep good memories.
01:58Like I said, I was very fortunate to play here for so long and a lot of good souvenirs
02:05from this place.
02:06So it'll be nice to do it one more time.
02:10I mean, they screwed this up nice and juicy.
02:13They really did.
02:14He was such a great goalie and they let him go.
02:18Like, how bad was their GMs and their decision makers in the front office?
02:24And to this day, they've had horrible decision makers in the front office.
02:28Their management core in Pittsburgh has been a disaster.
02:31And I don't think anyone likes Kyle Dubas either.
02:34I really don't.
02:35And Rutherford was an old geezer.
02:37And I mean, it just goes on and on and on.
02:39I can't even believe, to be honest with you, and I'm going to say it, that Mario Lemieux
02:45let it happen.
02:46I can't even believe that he, as the owner, let it happen.
02:50He's like, he's one of these guys, he lets them make their decisions.
02:54He's one of these owners that lets his GMs and his front office call the shots.
02:59And I think that, at some level, that's a mistake.
03:03You can't always let them call every decision the right one, because the decisions they've
03:09made in goal have been franchise-changing, utterly.
03:13They went from being a five-time Stanley Cup champ to a chump.
03:17They're a chump now.
03:18They suck.
03:19I mean, like, they can barely win a game.
03:21And then they want me to go to a game on the 16th and pay $300 for two seats.
03:27They charge through the nose in Pittsburgh for tickets to watch that crappy hockey team.
03:33And the only thing you're paying to see in that arena is to watch number 87 skate around
03:39and Malkin to loaf around and play half-assed.
03:43Malkin don't even try no more.
03:45He don't even try.
03:46Like, he got all that money, he's like, this is unbelievable, these people.
03:50In Russia, they would have put him in prison.
03:52These people are just giving me all this money, and I don't even play any more.
03:55I don't even try.
03:56He doesn't even try any more.
