The 2023 THG Christmas Hangout Live Stream

So cute she is all right we are live oh my hair is all crazy special I it you’re special I don’t I don’t think there’s any save in this I’m merry Christmas everybody what about what about is called Christmas in Canada too yeah is it called Christmas in Canada to

Usually yeah we speak English in in English speaking countries this Christmas right is there anywhere that speaks English that not called Christmas is anybody else I don’t does anybody still call it saturnalia or like I mean there’s Festivus there’s people who have Festivus you we should get a fist poll

Next year next year should put up a FES I thought Lars Lars had a picture of poll I thought it was really funny we should do that next year we should do the festiv why’ you kick the camera sorry cuz it was my feet just hit my my foot

Um yeah Christmas greatest celebration of speaking English but see if you don’t if in non-english-speaking countries this called different words na you Dad yeah it’s different words in other languages in English is Christmas what is it Noel I mean somebody can correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t know of

Another word for Christmas in an English speaking country but I know a lot of words for Christmas in non-english speaking countries I can make up words for Christmas that helps what is your problem dear Lord what next year you guys should do a Festivus aring of grievances video that sounds like a horrible idea that that that could go badly quickly um you might need a black box for the that would be bad for the analysis after that one’s crashed and burned I think that sounds

Like a terrible idea that’s yeah especially online no pass on that veto hi unless we had like fans send me their their grievances towards the NHL whatever people just blame it on you we it’s all you if you say it that means that’s how

You feel so it all come on you so I think that’d be an awful idea K Kid K in Sweden they say godu or God I don’t know how you pronounce it actually but I I do see that that’s one I see a lot K Kitty

Good kitty yes sure good Kitty thank you for letting me out of the basement this morning Shannon a there was no problem Merry Christmas what additions coyotes need to get into playoffs well I mean right now they’re above the playoff line I would say honestly a couple of

Veterans veteran up front veteran on the blue line I don’t think they need a lot you know just a couple of experienced editions at the deadline and I I think they’re in good shape as long as the goal tending holds up and ingrams look fantastic uh what are the chances the

Rangers trade quick for a top six forward at the deadline uh quick wouldn’t fetch a top six forward at the deadline and I I don’t think the Rangers are trading quick I’m pretty sure he has a no no trade clause when he went there

I think he got a no trade CLA I Kitty just notice all the best Canadian YouTubers like JJ Mollo and Pitch sky are from Vancouver is Vancouver like Canada’s Hollywood Yes actually oh West yeah there I mean Toronto too but yes actually yeah yeah kind of sort of lots and lots of shows

And movies that you think are American are filmed in Vancouver Metro and there’s a lot of influencers around here out to here in abbotford Langley the surrounding area yep yep still not considering getting goldobin back no no um yeah gold doin’s not on my list of

Players I would I would ask for back in Vancouver flash is filmed in Vancouver yes Sly we a lot of the fight right next to right next to the stadium they usually would be right next to Rogers you can usually tell where they are I I

Could always tell I was like okay I know that I know that Viaduct all right I know where they’re at uh next coach fired I I get the feeling that it it could end up being Don Granado if Buffalo doesn’t turn things around even though he has a good relationship with Kevin Adams

I good um Merry Christmas I’ve seen your jerseys from geeky jerseys but I’ve seen some negative Press online especially about shipping they’re pre-orders they’re yeah so people get mad pre-orders people get mad because of the fact that you do a pre-order and then it takes a few months

For you to get the Jersey it’s just they’re they’re custom making it for everybody and they don’t they don’t have anything pre-made with the the pre-orders so that’s what a lot of it is is that um because if they have it in stock it ships the next day but if it’s

A pre-order it can be a while there’s times where it’ll say eight to 10 weeks and it’ll be about three months but I’ve never complained because I get it they’re custom jerseys I don’t know what goes on with their their manufacturing and all that so you just have to look at

The lisine to see if it’s a pre-order or not pre-order means it hasn’t been made yet so you have to wait till they make it yeah hi Shannon and yvon Merry Christmas how big of a bounce back could the wins against Toronto Boston and buffalo be for eigor just Starin he’s been very

Dialed in the last couple of weeks uh he is still one of the best goendale hockey league for my money it’s his net um come playoff time I have no doubt he’s the guy so yeah I I think that helps and this is where the fact the Rangers have

Been out scoring any of his struggles helps too um hopefully the golden kns get out of the slump on Wednesday you know it’s these weird road trips west coast East Coast Road Trips uh they’ve been bizarre uh teams have struggled with the the going to the other coast uh Carolina’s the most

Obvious one but Vegas is having that trouble too no no somebody’s asking who’s going to play us in a movie wait are you saying Melissa McCarthy would play me I don’t think I look like her a say no no I think uh for you to play you so Jennifer Lawrence you’re about

The same age and then for me probably Ryan Gosling would play me I think that would work accurate there you go I think cuz he’s Canadian IM and if not him then Ryan Reynolds it’s got to be one of the Ryan they’re both Canadian I’m sure Ryan

Reynolds would be down for it you know and the resemblance between myself and Ryan Reynolds is really uncanny he’s from Vancouver too shoot hockey left but golf right-handed is this a common thing or am I some kind of mutant I’m left-handed I do everything right-handed in sports I shoot right I golf right

Hockey right or hockey left and golf right I say he’s a mutant see my dad was right-handed did everything left in sports and I I’ve I when I was in school there were times where I had to learn to be both where I’d have to throw with my

Right or throw with my left because nobody had like if we played baseball well I’d have to wear a glove on the hand I threw it so I’d have to learn to throw with my right that was fun um who’s married I don’t know who we’re talking about probably the cats

None of the cats are married you guys all living in sin are you you all living in sin and you’re purring about it that’s terrible Shannon the only boy is her brother ew they can’t get married what are you suggesting okay that was a that was a

Nice noise was good should make that my ringtone okay anyways there it is have it okay just wanted to say you are not only a very adorable couple you are far better human beings thank you for being you a thanks I try I do try it’s weird though when you offer to

Help people they always figure there’s got to be some kind of why it’s like because it’s Christmas everything okay why I just you all right yeah why okay never mind can I asked anything thanks Santa thg for the best gift ever Jets number one in the power rankings that was my Christmas present

Is just all he made it all up and so the other Christmas presents not so much he did actually he did actually get accused of that which I find really humorous so the past how many years n my opinion on it didn’t matter but this year gonna put the number one for my

Wife that’s it I I I don’t watch his power ranking I genuinely think they’re playing the best hockey in the league right now I it’s been it’s been fun to watch yeah just gonna say they’re really fun to watch the way they handled Boston the other night even as a Boston fan I

Had to respect it they’re not and then getting all frustrating watching where like no you guys actually know how to play pretend you can play anyways would you like links and screenshots of all your power rankings no I mean I into a historical database I’ve thought about going

Through my old Power Rankings but it it does tend to get kind of it can be he does actually have them wrote down in a notebook I have I have all the pages in here he has them all this year’s power rankings are all in here um

So don’t we one do one or do some kind of Excel spreadsheet or something well I’ve had people send me Excel spreadsheets for previous years and then I’ve done videos where I average a lot more work for Shannon honestly I and I I I don’t feel comfortable asking people to do that

Either it’s like that’s a lot of work on their end and I yeah baby it would be fun to have all the power rankings over the years and average out what the average over the five years of done Power Rankings is try see every way to do that it’s a whole lot of

Work well I didn’t say it would be you don’t need more work you don’t need more work Shannon hey hey we don’t need to suggest more work for Shannon well no that would be the offseason that’ll be in the playoffs in the off season he doesn’t need more work that’ be actually

Kind of fun I think I can do that Shannon’s really good at making more work for himself uh just saying it if ton tjon is a Hall of Famer then so is Steve ler and Curtis J Joseph can’t argue with that lmer lmer and Joseph

Would have had my votes a while ago lmer has the Stanley Cup ring from the 94 Rangers and Joseph’s one of the most clutch goalies I saw who did not win a Stanley Cup he was clutch in the playoffs for teams that weren’t great um yes Maple knows she’s she’s a

Beautiful cat her eyes are so pretty too she has huge eyes she’s our most cat cat that we have here bun bun I moved it for you aren’t you Maple but yes she is very pretty let’s go Raiders as a Vegas fan watching momes get dismantled is one of those little joys in

Life well I mean I’m a Chargers and Bengals fan so I don’t have any joy in my life when it comes to football these days CU nope that’s what hope does just it Stomps you out oh somebody has a birthday on Christmas day well happy birth

Yeah I used to have a friend that’s birthday was on Christmas Eve and she’d always joke that she was having a birthday birthday party on Christmas Eve for her birthday are you doing anything are you free oh oh um which teams haven’t won a Stanley Cup this

Wait which teams haven’t won a Stanley Cup this year I’m gonna guess this year’s not there for yeah which ones haven’t won a Stanley Cup they need to hold one at least the the closest at this point would be Winnipeg um Nashville is another one that may very

Well get that first Stanley Cup over the next little while here Vancouver would love to have a Stanley Cup the city would love to have a Stanley Cup I’ve I’ve been pretty clear I I don’t think that happens while I’m still walking the Earth but I would love for them to prove me

Wrong um wanted to say thank you Shannon I’ve lost 45 pounds last year because I listened to your videos while on the treadmill had no dedication to do it that until I started watching that’s awesome I did my tread today he did I I am similar not watching Shannon but I

Hate doing the treadmill hate the treadmill so I have to have something that I’m watching that keeps my brain distracted and and I can do the okay I will do the treadmill until this is done and then I’m good otherwise I won’t I hate doing the

Treadmill hate it I don’t no not a fan it works though if you had to bet your money on the Oilers the playoffs or the Maple Leafs not making it what would you choose theiler’s making it I still think they they’re they’re too talented not to at least make the playoffs good girl

They’re not that far out good girl what sweet you got a tuft right there did she touch you no did she touch you did she here’s M you can tell that she’s getting to shedding because her nose changed colors is she touching their fur changes colors they shed it

I know you have to go that way now will you be watching Juniors uh I mean the world junior starts tomorrow I I haven’t made up my mind on whether or not I’m G to be watching it I’m I’m not going to be reviewing the games the same as I do

With all the NHL stuff just taking a few days to to relax a little bit um I I may watch parts of it but I’m I’m not uh planning on watching the whole thing or anything clean and Dad yeah I’m being groomed he dirty boy at least when she

Grooms it’s licking when her brother Grooms it’s biting hey bun bun I know you’re a good girl um well she’s not a huge bun she really isn’t well our our rabbits are actually pretty small for domesticated rabbits compared to a wild rabbit they’re big but wild rabbits here

Are tiny but they’re actually a fairly small breed of rabbit here you go baby she’s a bit rounder than our other rabbits though but it’s because she’s poofy you don’t PE Don’t Have a Holly Jolly Christmas do either of you have any thoughts on the 246 Hershey Bears repeat as cder Cup

Champs let’s go Bears I’ll probably be following the Calder Cup once we get there uh The Calder Cup often is is awarded after the Stanley Cup so I wouldn’t be surprised to see Hershey there uh they have an excellent program they they clearly know

How to build a winner and yeah uh I I would not be surprised to see them there again uh as a Winnipeg fan I’m checking out USA at the Juniors yep mord’s the uh the team captain Oh yes Rucker mordi one of the best hockey names ever I remember when

He first came up I don’t remember what it was and you saying his name that’s a hockey name that’s very hockey name Roger arena is not a good place to watch hockey what I love watching hockey talking about it’s a great place for watching hockey you can see from no matter where you

Are um we have a sh Shannon Jersey ranking we need an Yvonne Jersey rankings she doesn’t rank I don’t I don’t Rank and list everything like Shannon does I have lists for everything it’s not I I do not Shannon thinks very very differently than I do I don’t rank everything I don’t rank

Anything I don’t I really don’t I have to it’s just in my nature just yeah that’s how your brain works Shannon lists everything and ranks everything and I don’t I know you hate the Kings last 38 38 in rooted for video but talk top of rankings

Were where oh where was the love for Spence in rookie video all kidding aside Merry Christmas to the whole family and channel followers there wasn’t much for Spence for me to put them on the board um I had to uh make sure that I was I

Was quick with the rookies and that I went through the rookies that I really wanted to discuss I wanted to discuss moari because I feel like he doesn’t get as much attention um but yeah uh it it’s not it’s not a slight to spense Spence has been good upper bowl is around 180

At Rogers now not that I see I don’t know where you’re looking but it’s not even that price for many of the lower CH chillak no unless unless you’re going to like the Boston game or the Toronto game or Montreal it does very depend those games are really expensive but uh the

Lower ball seats I got for the games before the season started they were all below $100 that’s why pick the games I the Lerow it has to be a night where there’s not much going on in the NHL and yeah I I I make sure the ticket prices

Aren’t too ridiculous that’s why we’re never at Center ice because those tickets are very expensive Um what are your thoughts on Detroit Pistons tying the single season record of a 26 game losing streak haven’t they miss been mismanaged for a while uh you know I don’t really I don’t really follow the NBA enough you missed mine why did you miss mine did I yep oh

I did so yeah but uh I I really don’t follow the NBA like I used to even the NFL like I didn’t know that um the the Vegas Raiders were playing as well as they were until I saw somebody else I followed on social media talking about

It uh as a Flames fan I would take anything for hubero even janitors like Ryan Reeves or Arbor Jack oh I would not have guessed that yeah Jacky Jacky absolutely would not be available uh Jacky’s a fantastic defenseman Montreal wouldn’t be giving him up for huberto even straight up

Wouldn’t happen um huo’s problem at this point is that contract is as close to untradeable as you can get we’ve seen with Eric Carlson recently no contracts truly untradeable but you’d have to throw in some sweeteners if you were moving huo’s money and he’d obviously

Have to be involved in the trade so he’d have some say in where he went when Ben either retires or leaves Dallas who would become Captain I would not be surprised to see Meo Hainan become the captain I think Hainan is gonna be the

Guy if not him it I I would I would think Robertson or hints but my my pick would be hinan will you go to conu playoff games nope a to be really expensive and B I still have to do all the recap stuff so Shen has to work yeah I wouldn’t be at

Vancouver now at abbotford conu I might be if uh if there’s no NHL games or at that time then I can go to abbottsford play off games oh wow that’s really cool thank you for gifting 20 hockey game memberships that’s really cool it’s like a little Christmas for a

Bunch of people that’s really neat thank you Merry Christmas what are your thoughts on markstrom this year markstrom’s been good uh I would even say in some games he’s been very good um I I know that Rick ball and Kelly Rudy really like raw raah raw with markstrom

There’s times where I think they’re a little bit over the top with it but I get it um I think markstrom’s been very good there’s going to be a question to be answered after this season though because I think Wolf’s ready so the question becomes do you trade Vadar or

Do you keep vladar and make wolf maybe 1 a1b with vladar and and try to move markstrom’s contract so I’ll be very interested to see what Calgary does at the end of the year um will Adidas jerseys go on sale once the contract ends this year oh absolutely once once we’re done the

Regular season watch for any team that missed the playoffs their jerseys are going to go on sale for about half price I think with the rebok they they drop to about third of the price by the time that the the whole blowout sales were done yeah they’re all going to go on sale

Quickly uh do you think anyone can challenge Bard in the chase for Calder Trophy um Faber might if fantelli or go on a run they might but I I think it’s bards to lose now are the Bruins going to turn it around or do you see them

Needing to make a trade to shake things up de Brusque is having a pretty down year so far in my opinion 2015 draft continues to haunt Sweeny I think that for Boston uh the rumor was that they’re they’re in on lindol they’re trying to get lindol from Calgary and I do think

They need another Center I think that’s really that’s where the key is for them to really and truly become a contender again they’re they’re going to need to beef up at Center at least a little bit probably add a top six defenseman too uh if they can’t do that then

They’re they’re probably going to be a middle of the road team and then we’ll see what happens in the playoffs who needs a Rebrand once Fanatics takes over I think the Ducks are going to Rebrand I’d be very surprised if they don’t become I don’t think they’ll name

Themselves the Mighty Ducks but I think they’ll go back to that logo at some point it’s just too popular which Habs Jersey should I get okay so tricolor Sports which is Montreal’s store today they got brand new sweaters or the very very least recently they got new sweaters so I I

May have may have ordered one um so they’ve they’ve got the like the oldfashioned sweaters they’ve got like these really fun designs that are from like a hundred years ago so the one that I ordered is the red one but it’s got the globe on the front from when they

Won the Stanley Cup and they had the globe on front like yeah I want that that’s that’s that’s great they’ve got one from 1911 1912 as well it’s got a C here okay like a stylized SE and then there’s a stripe here and a stripe

Around it and I was like it looks like a seat belt when would I wear that it it looks like it should be a cardigan is what it look like and I was like I don’t I don’t know what I’m and I’d have to explain that to anybody that would see

It so uh but yeah I I honestly I think the the old sweaters are a lot of fun um they they have all the old designs and sweaters and I I’m I’m glad that I have the the sweaters that I do they’re they’re fun so that would be my

Suggestion get a sweater could you do a career video on Peter zzle yep I absolutely could I haven’t done career videos for a while I’ve been um kind of allowing that to kind of back itself up a little bit and then um I’ll get a bunch of career videos going later

On in the season oh a lot of people are talking about I’m gonna assume this is going off of the rebranding the Ducks logo people liking the old Ducks I really like the old Ducks oh absolutely yeah I really I think if there’s a team that would Rebrand I think going back to

That old makes a lot of sense with that purple yep really nice I like those jerseys like just came out eggplant and teal MH I really like those those are much better they’re different too they they stand out in comparison to other jerseys they’re not yeah the white and black and

Orange like so many other teams um is Noah Dobson in the running for the Norris I don’t think he’s in the running yet I think it’s between I would say Quinn Hughes Mar there’s a couple others that would still probably be ah head of Dobson but if he can keep scoring at

This pace for the whole season then he’ll probably pass a couple of them and he’ll be I would say at least top five but there’s a lot of good defenseman in the NHL right now I think one trophy for all of these really good defenseman it’s tough really really tough to name just

One I love the eggplant over the orange that Anaheim has gone with agreed I do think they’re going to keep the orange though I wish they would go to the old the thought process a couple years ago was that the orange they use for their third that had become their regular

Jersey and then they’d have a white version of that forther away I don’t like it I know but that was that was the that was the rumor a few years ago uh the Canucks are actually good I’ve been waiting for like 10 years it’s been a while and that’s that’s why I’m

I’m cautious in my optimism about them uh my mom was here yesterday and the first thing she said was well conu are doing good I hope they don’t screw it up I was like apple doesn’t fall far from the tree oh yeah she talks to me about

Hockey even just oh yeah I was watching this one she walks watches a couple different teams and she watches several of your videos she doesn’t watch all of them she definitely watches I don’t watch all of them I don’t expect anybody to watch I don’t watch any of your

Videos soing to my numbers nobody watches all of them so you know which I totally get totally understand it really is that would be really hard for anybody to watch all your videos it really is even today the three videos I put up almost an hour when you put the two

Three times together or 45 about 45 minutes between the three it’s a lot yep Shannon talks a lot yep um when can we get a video featuring the hockey mom and or entertainment mom we were talking about that yesterday we were actually just talking about that

Yesterday getting your mom on a video I do intend I do intend to get my mom into a video at some point I think she would just be tickled I she is so proud of Shannon yeah I think I could just stand her in front of the microphone as say talk she

Is so proud of Shannon Shannon’s her her only kiddo and yep she’s very proud of Shannon she does swear though and that’s one thing that not much she might but is the video I’m sure she could tone down she might well maybe so just just throwing that

How to people know how to turn it down when oh there you go that’s that’s Anon question right there what best advice for Journey cleaning washing and maintenance happy holidays to your family and thanks for all you do okay somebody maybe even Lars can you

Remind me next week I need to do that Jersey video I have two jerseys in my sewing room spe my white Rangers she’s waiting for me to do a jersey I need to do a jersey so anybody allow to have it can message me like on Discord remind me

To do the video I’m so bad at keeping track of what I need to do okay anyways so just regular care of your jersey turn it inside out throw it in your washer um I don’t ever use hot but I don’t use hot to do laundry anyway

You can throw it in with your regular wash yep it doesn’t matter yep just inside out not on hot and don’t ever ever ever ever ever put it in the dryer just hang it to dry that’s it that’s all you have to do nothing more um if it has

The felt logo on it I use Scotch Guard on those before I ever even wear them because those it can pill and get all fuzzy and if use Scotch Guard it kind of keeps that fabric nice and crisp it helps it look better it helps it wear

Better um same with not the Adidas but the rebok when they had the metallic like the Kings has it the Stars has it yep isn’t there a senators isn’t there a Senators one that has it too yeah the old one Scooby-Do that metallic you definitely want to Scotch the guard that

Before don’t don’t breathe on those jerseys before you Scotch Guard them because those things Fray so bad that stars Jersey he got a Stars Jersey right after we met and he showed it to me because he was all proud of it I like can I can I take that home with me

Really quick because it was fraying but yeah that’s it there it’s actually pretty easy you just don’t ever put it in the dryer don’t ever don’t don’t do it no matter how tempted you are don’t put it in the dryer it’s remarkable you didn’t find the whole thing

Weird you didn’t just walk into my apartment when we started dating and go yeah yeah no no you saw my house so your house look normal I have mine not so much I have dorky stuff too so um I did get some sugarfree candy I got some sugarfree she got herself sugarfree cand

Whatever Santa got me some sugar-free candy and it was in my stocking and it was awesome I got sugar-free saltwater taaffe how fun is that I’ve never even found that before so that’s my sugar-free candy I got this year what it’s from Santa Santa was very considerate this year come up here come

On um come on how would you compare the 90s rivalry between the stars and Avalanche to now the the Stars Avalanche series well their their rivalry it was never it was never the kind of blood sport that it was when Detroit met up with Colorado

Okay there I need my blood to live um but yeah it I mean it was it was good uh Dallas was pretty strong against Colorado they at least matched up better with Colorado than they did with with Detroit um now I I think the Rivalry has

More of a chance to be a little a little bit dirty than what it was there’s uh there’s definitely some Dallas Stars players who are sandp paperish and same in Colorado so if they meet in the playoffs it could get ugly okay I see a few people saying they don’t have Scotch

Guard in other countries which makes sense Scotch Guard is actually the brand name not what the product is but it’s basically a waterproofer so whatever you would spray to protect like uh jackets not the silicone coating one that when we we live in the rainforest so we use

Silicone coating on rain jackets but just the it’s a protector spray you can spray it on your furniture and stuff to give it that protective coating so that like cat fur and stuff doesn’t stick to it as much but I’m pretty sure they would have it in any country just

Different brands but it’s a protective spray does that make sense am I making sense sure it’s a sealant uh yeah yeah it’s a it’s a protective coating that you spray on clothing mortar oil works as well do you have any jerseys from hockey movies the Hansen

Brothers I I don’t I don’t have the Hansen Brothers one did you miss one yeah well I had there it is I had scrolled down and then I scrolled back up uh um should well you have he has letter Kenny jerseys and shy jerseys does that count and then there’s the geeky jerseys

Ones but those aren’t from a movie no they’re themed but not actually from a movie should the Red Wings rebuild be considered a failure uh do the wings really need the lottery to rebuild do you think it’s a coaching problem I I think that they’re their Improvement has been gradual and I

Understand that it’s not fast enough for some there’s a good team there uh the one question mark I think that’s held them back is is consistency and net I think once they have that consistency and net whether it’s one of the three they have really stepping forward or

Bringing somebody else in I think they’ll be fine I see somebody asking about Shadow he is actually there he is yeah he’s in the little the little hammock it’s like a little basket that’s his favorite so there’s there’s Shadow right there um hi Shannon congrats on

300K hope you reach 500k soon oh that’s a while away that’ll take time what are your thoughts on the Atlanta Flames jerseys beautiful I like them and do you think that Rod brendam Moore should be in the hall of fame um I like Atlanta Flames jerseys I like the a the Atlanta

Flames a I have the red one I do not have the white one I haven’t seen a white one that’s been like mass-produced in a long time so when Adidas Classics came out with the uh that that I heard they were coming with a line of flames I

My fingers crossed was G to be the white one it was the red one so yeah what was the other question um brendam Moore um I I think brendam Moore is going to get into the Hall of Fame I understand why he’s not in the Hall of Fame at this

Point um I think it’s the the awards and just you know was he dominant ner and I understand there’s people who don’t like those kinds of um reasons people use for not having him in the hall but I I think that’s going to fall by the wayside

Soon has it dawned on you yet that all three of your teams are first in their division at the break but you didn’t predict that before the season nope I predicted Dallas would be first the other two no um I did I did enjoy doing the the videos on each division at the

Break and going okay I get to wear Vancouver now I get to we Dallas now I get to wear Boston because they’re the leaders and then Rangers and and Rangers are a lot of fun to watch and and I like wear in Ranger jerseys too so yeah just

Kind of a fun day you guys live in a rainforest I thought you guys lived in Canada like ice we do live in Canada we do live in a rainforest it doesn’t get that cold here we haven’t had it hasn’t gone below zero snowed yet it hasn’t snowed yet we’ve

Had frost it’s it’s been it’s been unseasonably warm here for the for the month of December where we live our climate zone is a temperate rainforest we get a lot rain out there today it is very rainy and very swampy out but yes we live in a rainforest we do not live

In the snowy part of Canada no I’ve had plenty of winners where there is no snow I was Adelaide was so upset this morning I wanted snow sweetie okay I’m 42 and I’m thinking the number of years it has snowed on Christmas we got to white Christmas in my lifetime three or four

Times I was guessing like four it’s not I can remember we did have was it last year that it snowed and then we had the like three years ago how we had a crazy amount of snow and it was stupid cold like negative 20 and then I can remember

One year when I was like 11 that it snowed for Christmas but there was one there was one night that I sorry sweetie you got to move when I was when I was a kidas when I was a kid there was one day it was just snowing like crazy and I told

My mom I said I want to go out play in the snow and she said well it’s about bedtime but it’s Friday night so get up early on Saturday and you can go out and play in the snow Saturday morning go out before the kids are out and I was like

Okay so I got up the next morning pouring rain no snow anywhere so I went and woke my mother up I was like yeah so about the snow when it snows I always told the kids to go out right now go well I’m going to do this for well then the

Snow’s going to be gone because you you have like an hour y maybe there was like there was like I think it was like almost a foot of snow R and it was just gone the next morning was all gone I was like serious it’s always how it works

Isn’t it can’t go out and play with the mud um oh evon’s opinion on Jets reverse retro versus Canucks reverse retro which year I probably probably the last one I like last year I like the most the white Jets reverse retro versus the Johnny K the gray wasn’t for the Jets it wasn’t

It wasn’t no that one was disappointing because why is it gray the last years’s I liked much better last year’s is fantastic much better but I do also really like the Johnny Canucks and that works because I go to a lot of the abbottford games I would put I would put

The Jets one ahead of the Johnny but yeah because they finally did a throwback to that Jets logo I like right the Jets have some really nice they do jersies they do trying to think yeah I’d probably put the Jets above the Johnny Canuck though I do like to the Johnny

Canuck that one’s pretty fun I’m glad are there any jerseys you want to get but you can’t find there used to be um at this point if I if I want a Jersey it’s just they haven’t manufactured it for the last 30 years and that’s that’s

Where it’s at other than that I’ve I’ve got them thanks for the live stream as Sabers fans we could use it this year all we want for Christmas is a consistent hockey team it’s frustrating watching the Sabres right now I’m I’m right there with you I I really thought

The Savers were going to pull it together and be a playoff team this year and build on the momentum from last year and it really hasn’t happened they’ve been I think they’ve honestly been more disappointing this year than in any of the previous Seasons because there was more

Expectation oh my gosh yvon just a mid at her age because I don’t think it’s a big deal it really isn’t we all we all age we all get a year older every year we get another year older it’s not not it’s not something to be ashamed of

Embarrassed it’s not like you can prevent it or I don’t see it as a big deal like we watched that Christmas movie last night with Jason bigs and hea that movie and how ridiculous that was they never did address the glass on the floor by her bed no no somebody’s dead

But um yeah it it’s interesting because both of them were like in teen romps and stuff that we remember and now they’re just Mom and Dad just straight I was thinking wow Jason bigs is just playing a normal character there were no jokes at his expense he’s not Loser yeah he’s

Not it’s just he’s just Dad and she was she was Mom and so she was always like the the the sex symbol in all of her movies she was the girlfriend in the b in uh um The Hangover she’s the one that um um oddly enough Andy Bernard ends up

With uh the actor that plays Andy Bernard um Ed Helms so he paired up with her in in The Hangover so see we did we had a hangover night last night we started the movie with Ed Helms and Jennifer Garner I couldn’t do it the family I think it’s family planner but

We got like we got three minutes in I turned it off I couldn’t I was one that was like no he’s just not funny this notun fun and I knew it was gonna get worse when they showed the flashback to him being a rock star I was like okay I’m done nope

Nope I’m done I can’t I can’t do this if he’s going to be singing and no I I can’t so turn that on which is which is a shame I don’t know that I’ve ever turned off a movie with Jennifer Garner in it that’s why I thought was like well

She she doesn’t make really bad movies I know Electra I get it but I forgive her she was young um I I just that was that was terrible I I need to track her down and ask her so what what were you thinking did you get paid really well I

Would imagine for what was that about were you like did you owe somebody a favor was was this like a friend of yours from college made the movie and so you had to be in it cuz you promised them oh yeah if you ever become a big

Director I’ll be in your movie and then they did and so now you’re crap you have to do it have you guys thought about doing a Shannon’s corner where he explains Canada to non-c Canada peeps I’d have to do it sarcastically I can’t imagine doing it Canada is such a

Huge country and every area in Canada iset it’s not like it’s all the same like you you go from BC into Alberta and and it’s just you and it’s like it’s like you wouldn’t think they cross the border but that it makes a difference but it’s completely different G Alberta

Is just everywhere’s pickups every everywhere and cowboy hats everywhere I never see cowboy hats here but in Alberta there’s a lot of cowboy hats yeah C knocked my Droid over but it would be tricky because for some things it would work but it’s such a big country oh yeah and the maritimes are

Different ter whole different country Quebec’s a whole different country um there’s parts of the Prairies where You’ feel like you’re in a completely different country like it’s there’s a lot to Canada a lot pretty awes the states the states isn’t really that much different they have a lot of different parts of

The states which feel completely different too it’s just here uh much more sparsely populated in a lot of these areas true cuz B it’s cold Merry Christmas thg your videos have made free agency trades game recaps and explanations on stuff relating to the NHL easier to

Digest thank you um that’s it’s kind of what I aim for I I try to keep it as as simple as I can and there’s times where I’m doing a video and I’m like h no and then I I turn it off erase the board and start over again because I feel like

There’s it’s just too I don’t know I don’t know if complicate is the right word but I’m like there’s got to be an easier way to explain this hockey hockey’s over complicated I think at times by people what do you think of college hockey it’s good hockey um I

Would put it I mean it’s not on the same level as say AHL but it’s it’s close um I I don’t watch a lot of college hockey because we don’t have it up here like on TV ever watched College they have some of the Canadian College

Stuff on TSN every now and then but usually while there’s other NHL games going on but it is it is good hockey uh you guys inspired me to visit Canada going to Quebec City from Hawaii in January that’ll be a change in weather dress warm be prepared for snow lots of

Lots of snow Quebec is beautiful so I am sure you’ll have an awesome in Quebec City it’s just it’s so culturally different and it’s it’s amazing for everything I’ve heard Quebec City is amazing um uh Hey Shannon my flyers are gonna whoop your Canucks in a few days that

Should be a really fun game I’m I’m looking forward to that I think that with how the Flyers are playing that’s an excellent test for the Canucks have you ever been to University of BC UBC hockey games no never been to a UBC I’m trying to think if I’ve been on the UBC

Campus I have quite a few times I haven’t the kids have had BCIT yes our kids have had things out there SFU I think I’ve been out to SFU a couple of times but yeah UBC no uh any recommendations in Quebec not not from us I’m sure there’s some Quebec

People on here that would do I would say go on our Discord probably be a lot of people a lot of people live in Quebec that are on the Discord Discord may help yeah yeah um first season watching NHL your channel has been instrumental in getting

Into the league from the UK thank you that’s awesome thank you need more Global viewers of of the National Hockey League um first season watching NHL oh I just read that one huh you just read that we’re having a Brown Christmas in Edmonton for the first time since 2004 I

Heard that I did yeah unseasonably I have heard about that cross Alberta Ivon has a lot of Idaho information I really really don’t well I mean your expertise with the potato Your Love of the potato you know the part of Idaho that even grows potatoes I think I’ve been to twice and

See but you know that because you know so well I really don’t what I just carried you um appreciate you for repping yotes gear lately Shannon really likes the coyot stuff yeah he really likes the coyote jerseys oh my gosh I just carried really warm winter here on the East Coast here

Too no snow yet the kids are really disappointed about um I just carried you sweetie and you don’t need to hold on like that I’m not going to Dr from India do you think my Hawks need coaching change or is it too early to go that road oh yeah Luke Richardson’s getting

The most out of them that any coach can um the expectations for the Hawks this year have been pretty low and then you got to remember they lost Hall and and Perry you know his contract gets terminated he’s gone so those are two top six forwards there gone off of a

Team that was already expected to be towards the bottom of the league I’m I’m surprised at how competitive they are so I think Richardson deserves some credit for them staying in games and playing well at times but yeah this year it wouldn’t matter who’s behind the bench

Scotty Bowman couldn’t get them a good record my mom is leaving to go watch Hallmark movies I wonder if she plays the game that we do of was this film downtown the answer is usually yes yep where we try and guess where they filmed the movie sometimes it’s in shellak

Sometimes it’s here sometimes it’s in Langley yep but it’s usually in amford it is a fun game um I saw one oh asked if bar was clingy you think so clingy you think so CL this cat she is such an odd cat did you hear that she said you’re

Weirdo she is she’s a weirdo she has to sleep by our faces she has to lay on us or be right next to us she gets upset she doesn’t like to go upstairs and so she gets up upset if we’re both upstairs for very long yows she does she cries like she’s in

Pain she’s such an odd odd odd cat she is very very clingy but only to the two of us she likes Adelaide yes she started letting Adel pick her up she likes Adelaide she does not like the boys um and if strangers are here you

Will not see her can i n she’s odd she will not get off my shoulder now odd odd cat why thanks guys for the great stream on Christmas no problem you’re welcome thanks for coming out if you took two forwards and a defenseman from every team and ranked them would barzel Horvat

And Dobson be a top 10 from every team man um I I can’t justify putting Corvette in the top 10 Dobson this season would be arguably top 10 um I I can’t argue barzel or Horvat in the top 10 forwards in the league part part of what’s helping the Islanders a

They’re getting games to extra time they’re making sure they get those points and they’re I think they just got systems that work they’ve got a pretty deep team as well I don’t think there’s any one player that’s that’s got them to the record they have I think it’s been a

Team effort do you ever make it out to any chillak Chiefs games sadly no I’ve wanted to I have a home and away Chiefs jerseys um I have a Chiefs hat I just I haven’t I haven’t got out shellac in in years to watch between watching NHL and

Then every once a while when there’s a light night being able to go to abbottford games can I put you on shennon doesn’t really have time that he gets to go just watch hockey uh Swan sent me a really cool Cameo said that I commentate their games better than

Jack Edwards and he saw an hbday sign I made please house tour oh for us um I’ve thought about doing House tours I don’t I know it always feels weird it’ be tricky it feels weird I mean we might be able to do like portions of the house

Yeah maybe I don’t know House tours feel weird to me House tours are odd it’s bizarre I think it would have been easier in the old I mean I did the house tour of of the other house when when we moved out so here’s where everything was

Here’s what it this is how small this set is seriously all your comments yeah I know um Merry Christmas from California go sharks what will be the first five teams to pick in the upcoming draft also have you seen Godzilla minus one I have not seen that yet okay top five teams in

The draft Chicago San Jose Anaheim um I’ll say Montreal gets into the top five Columbus yeah oh no not Montreal buffalo buffalo should be in the tough fight I’m sorry Buffalo can the Jets surpass their 20178 season record I I think so uh the key

Thing for the Jets though is to to Pace themselves don’t Peak too early in the season and that might mean that they they have their share of losses going forward but I think they can they can at least threaten it get close most memorable game you watched either on TV

Or in person the first memorable game for me was the Easter epic in 1987 which is the the capitals getting knocked out by the Islanders La Fontaine on Bob Mason and that broke my heart but it was the first time that I had experienced an epic game where I was like this game’s

Been going for six hours this is awesome I was so happy and I have always thought that those epic games are great I have always been so excited that is going to three overtimes wait four overtimes we go to Five I just I I love that about

Hockey that those games can just keep going so whenever anybody says well they should after the second overtime they should uh you know they should change it to try to get a result no no they shouldn’t leave it as it is go talk to Mike Milbury leave it as it

Is um do you think there’s any hope for the sends with this roster I I I don’t know what the problem is with the sends I know there’s some key guys who are inexperienced um I I think Brady kachuck is trying to do the best he can but I

Mean if you’re going to lead it’s tough to do that from the box so he needs to find a way to do that without taking penalties without being in the Box uh while still playing his style this the sends are in a tough spot because they

Should be coming out of the rebuild if this doesn’t work and they well we’re going to have to blow things up a bit that’s going to make it tough for the fans because they’ve been patient for years waiting for this turnaround that still hasn’t happened are you excited

About the stadium series coming up in January that’ll be fun um and not just because that means four more Stadium jerseys and I can’t wait to see what those are going to look like I actually when the Rangers one came out uh the alternate I thought oh that must be

Their Stadium Jersey that leaked I was kind of surprised it wasn’t because the logo is large and usually on the stadium jerseys everything’s bigger on them the numbers are huge the logos are big uh um but yeah I’m I’m looking forward to it I think it’s it’s going to be fun and at

The very least it feels like the outdoor games this year the NHL’s learned its lesson and there’s more attention to those games that can be paid because there’s not a bunch of games competing for that time uh I like your T-shirt just watch Toy Story 4 today before Doctor Who I’m

Not a huge fan of Toy Story 4 but I love forky um forky asked a question on Disney those are the greatest shorts I think ever those those short stories are just awesome um he is so wonderfully oblivious and and just it’s so genuine the way it’s written and I I I love

Forky what are your thoughts on how the thg fantasy league is going everything I’ve heard is going really well I know I think it’s kind of fun I kind of peek in at the chats for the fantasy I don’t ever comment in there because I’m not part of it but I

Peek in there and it looks like they’re having a lot of fun with that that’s all that matters everybody’s having really cool and just about everybody is really active in there it it looks it looks really fun I’m really glad that that’s going well because we tried to do fantasy

Hockey gosh like five years six years ago six years ago it was so much work and so many people just kind of dropped out that it wasn’t worth it but yep that one is going really really well and yeah people are staying active and it looks

Like people having a lot of fun so I’m I’m really glad it’s working out so I think I think we’ll definitely be good for next year with it going so well agreed you don’t need me to pick you up you don’t I don’t need to pick you up

Merry Christmas t g and wife Merry Christmas you’re that wife I am wife Nice uh what’s your favorite winner classic jersey ever favorite winner classic jersey ever I think think the highest ranked on my power or my like my jersey rankings I think it was the Rangers the the one

With the long logo on the front the cream colored yeah yeah I know you like fantastic I do know you like that one I don’t not a big fan of that one well you’re not a huge fan of the Rangers jerseys that’s true um true true the the

One between Pittsburgh and Boston I wasn’t really a huge either those so ugly um the Boston one was okay in person but the Rangers or the Penguins one it’s just hideous that was so I had to get you one only 20 bucks so ugly um yeah yeah I’d go with Rangers

Although the 2008 Winter Classic between Pittsburgh and Washington that Pittsburgh Penguins the blue one with the circular logo on the front the powder blue I don’t know the GU much better than that shadow wants to go outside and hunt with THD outside the house he does not Shadow just cries the

Whole time lies to pretend he’s big and tough and then he goes outside and he meils like a little scared kitten and he just crouches down and he tries to run for the door and if it’s raining he just com right back inside big scaredy cat sometimes in the the spring like late

Spring when it’s warm and I’m out there gardening I can get him to come out with me and he’ll lay in the Sun but other than that he just cries he’s a scaredy cat yeah he just cries the whole time really yeah like why are you crying what just settle

Down what’s your go-to Christmas tea I actually have let see I have Christmas tea right now um it’s from David’s Tea and it’s called Christmas morning it’s like a um English breakfast but they have spices in it and it’s really good and then in my other yes I have two cups

Because I need it’ be more than an hour this one I have wasle which is like um a spiced punch which is really yummy too yeah throwing a couple of shots at tequila and I you know that would ruin it oh that’ be so gross why would you ruin it like that

I’m just kidding I don’t like tequil be doesn’t like me either so it’s mutual but yeah I have Christmas tea it’s yummy other than that maybe chai CA spices I love all the the christmy spices spices people associate with Christmas yep like gingerbread spice I’m a fan so to result

The shootout issues issue do a three on three sudden death over time with no clock just next goal wins preventing teams from circling around gets rid of shootouts you’d have to have the NHL PA sign on they won’t sign on to endless overtime uh and teams wouldn’t want that

Either that’s going to screw up their flights because there’s teams that’ll fly out right after a game uh so I I think that the best solution would be to expand three on three overtime they’re talking about changing the rules over time too so you’re not allowed to back

Up past the center line uh think like basketball you can’t go over and back uh so they’re talking about doing something like that honestly I I there aren’t that many shootouts in the game now compared to where it was a while ago it doesn’t bother me that much uh I would love to

See shootouts gone but then again I’m okay with ties I’m one of the few that I’m okay with a tie I know most people aren’t what’s your favorite Canadian dollar just saw you guys have purple money we have all different colored money all of our dollar bells are a

Different color and they’re a slightly different size which makes it really really easy to tell your money apart in your wallet which is really really nice and it doesn’t it feels like it’s same like the European money where it’s that slippery plastic and so then when you touch American money you’re just

Like they don’t have it anymore where you can you can pick off that that that part right cuz to no no cuz all in in the plastic it’s that thin yeah slippery plastic but like they have Braille in it our dollar builds are really neat though

And in recent years a few of them them have been changed yep by recent years I mean like past six years yeah it’s been a while once in a while I I do I do everything online I do everything with debit so I don’t Bill the most recently

Changed one it’s why when everybody’s like I can’t believe this one’s going cashless all right I’ve been cashless for years so I’m good I haven’t need cash for ages you need $10 I don’t have money you want me to have cash who has cash actual money my face you want cash

Nobody has cash anymore but we we do have I think we have neat dollar bills they’re neat because they have different things on them that represent different parts of Canada and Canadian history which I think is kind of cool and I have abs use them to teach my kids different

Things about Canada that’s well the old 50 they had the the RCMP in a circle yes and we used to call that a new finlander firing squad and I’m allowed to say it because half new finlander here my mom my dad that taught me that joke so it’s okay for me to say

It I don’t that’s that’s what I was told yes Salone is a dollar coin and T coin what was it they wanted us call them initially they didn’t want they like tuny was something that just was was a phrase that came up and it caught on but I don’t remember I remember when

They first came out with the tunies though because it was really cool and when the Tunis came out there was a rumor put them in the freezer rum break out ited I couldn’t I did I tried you could the the middle would break out of it they don’t anymore it doesn’t now but

You could you could break the middle out because people were turning them into necklaces and I was like oh that would be fun totally did it put it in the put in the freezer multiple times never worked I heard that the $100 bill spells like maple syrup it’s not the hundreds

Is all of the bills but not everybody can smell it I didn’t tell my kids about it and our oldest the one that has autism he’s the one that told me Mom these smell like syrup so some people can smell it some people can’t but it’s all of the money

Not just $100 bills it’s not like I have $100 bills like ever but does that mean that Canadian smell like maple syrup probably it’s probably just everything everything up here just smells like Maple I think my maple syrup’s turned Shannon okay will doesn’t smell tasty hang on to his job next season

What parts do the jackets need to be more competitive and win I’m not sure with Columbus what they’re going to do with the the the GM position if Columbus doesn’t show some real traction towards being competitive at the season rolls along I would be very surprised if he’s

Still the general manager next season because he’s been there for a while now he’s had every opportunity to turn that around and this season started with the whole Babcock disaster and now you’ve got a team that on the ice it’s not performing well I I really don’t know

That yarmo stays for next season have you turn sorry have you seen any bills with king’s head on it yeah um our bills do not have the Monarch on it our bills have Canadian figures used to have the Monarch right but they haven’t for a long time no because they then it went

To Prime Ministers and now it’s just historical figures um our coins have the Monarch and I think they only just started printing once with Kings King on them just there was a debate about whether or not to switch it right but they are they only just recently started

Printing them so I have not seen any of them yet have to switch it but again I don’t use a lot of cash I I will be on the lookout though because I’m interested a popularity thing people really like Queen Elizabeth Prince Charles King Charles not in that same

Popularity range nowhere near he doesn’t have that there’s no Charisma pleasantness there’s no Charisma no so yeah I I think I think we’d be fine with putting William on the on the money and just get out ahead of it over Charles I’m sure but yeah save some time

Yeah that probably sounds awful uh should the Canucks bring back the skate with the colors they have now eventually I would think they’ll do something like that um but the the plan seems to be to have the the new modernized skate logo in Jersey uh as

Part of the rotation for however long to come uh they’re very very popular they’re very big Sellers and while I would like to see it in their current colors I I don’t think there’s much of an appetite from from the team and it doesn’t feel like there’s many fans asking for that either

Yeah I love the multicolor money I won’t accidentally give the wrong note I really like the different colors it makes it so easy it’s very noticeable like when we go skitt when we go to Disneyland I’ll use cash sometimes there so then we don’t have the the fees and American

Money you actually have to take it out and look at it Canadian money you can easily see what it is just by peeking in your wallet by the color so you can just that’s what I need yep blue5 yeah so it’s really that’s where it’s noticeable when

You then go to use American money I have to look at it more work to look at it I don’t want to look at it to look at the money and it all sticks together too ours doesn’t stick and theirs Does okay Merry Christmas from our family to yours I deeply appreciate the effort you put into this channel I hope they both have a wonderful wonderfully happy and healthy entrance into 2024 Merry Christmas thank you Merry Christmas to you as well thank you you too Um I don’t like how American feels me neither I don’t either it but I’m kind of I’m kind of weird about how things feel so well then you hear about how dirty it is too it it makes you feel dirty touching it and I don’t know if it

Is that’s part of the reason why I’ve been good with not cash in general to me seems Seems like a dirty concept now like guess is here’s paper and you touch it and then you give me back paper that he was touching and gave to you so you T

And then everybody’s touching the paper I need some more hand sanitizer hope you all had a Merry Christmas can Detroit overcome this hellish December and get back to a playoff position they’re not that far out uh despite their struggles recently they’re not that far out uh Detroit just

Has to get better at protecting leads which is not not unique to Detroit Ottawa was going through that as well uh once they’ve once they’ve got that figured out and it may result in in or may it may mean making some changes in who’s on the ice but yeah uh I I do

Think they can get it back into a play position um how do you handle backlash I mean it’s there like I I I and I mean on the the other channel I’ve done a couple videos on on you know some negativity I see here and there uh you

Have two choices either you completely ignore it and then people will say oh see he’s a coward because he won’t address it or you you address it and I do my best to address it without uh dwelling on it without worrying about it when I’m when I’m not making videos I’m

Not on the channel um but yeah I I mean I I have to be willing to say here’s here’s my opinion here’s why and here’s how I feel about these these things so yeah um I do my best to be fair and I do my best to be transparent about how I do

Things handle the workload does it ever get overwhelming do I ever have a lack of video ideas I can I try to do playlists in the offseason so that that doesn’t happen um I have had uh I’ve had times over the last couple weeks where I’ve kind of felt overwhelmed uh the break

Came at the exact right time I have absolutely had times in the last couple weeks where I felt pretty overwhelmed with things so yeah the break is is at a perfect time and then we’re about a month away from the allstar break where we’re you know going down to California

The kids found out today that we’re all going to California they’re excited about that um so yeah um it it can be somewhat overwhelming the trick is when the video is going when I’m recording that cannot be in the video uh if I feel like I start a video and maybe I’m a

Little bit grumpy I’ll be like nope start over because you you you have to be with with the Channel with how I’ve established it I have to be as even keeled as possible that drives some people nuts they’re like he’s he’s too neutral middle of the road I have to be

That’s that’s how that has to go it basically has to be I deliver this like like I would I would deliver it if I was a news broadcaster here’s what I saw here’s what I thought what do you think and it has to be as even keeled as

Possible if I had to pick one team who should go back to a previous look Jersey logo colors they’ve had which team would you pick Merry Christmas I’ve mentioned the Ducks so I’m not going to mention the Ducks um hm original original colors original look Florida Panthers uh the

Florida Panthers their initial look I still think is probably their best one uh their initial look was great I I think the Florida Panthers uh jerseys I remember when they came into the league I had to have a Florida Jersey I had a Florida Jersey before they played their first game so

Yeah Florida would be my pick even though I don’t hate the jerseys they wearing now that would be my pick what is it bear is there a stranger at the door see she’s all she’s all sketched out now because there’s there’s somebody at the door do I think Obie will pass

Wayne Uh a year ago I would have said yep 100% now I’m kind of 5050 like there’s a lot of time left for him to to salvage this season but man once a player starts looking old once their numbers start to drop it is it is almost

Unheard of for somebody in their late late 30s or early 40s to to have their their production go up so I I’m I’m down to 5050 on that back Florida with a broken stick or not which do I prefer uh without although I I like the broken stick ones

I have those ones too uh the broken stick ones are interesting because it kind of makes it look like the the the panther hates hockey because he’s eating the hockey stick but I I thought it was a fun fun ad as well recently watched a Barbie movie for the first time I really

Enjoyed it certainly didn’t expect it to be so deep I watched it three times in the theater we did it I bought it on YouTube I’ve watched it twice on YouTube since then so it’s one of those rare movies I don’t know when the last time was a

Movie came out I’ve watched it five times in less than a year it’s a it’s a rarity but I really enjoy that movie uh how many TVs do you have going when you watch all the games one I have one TV and then I have the computer so I cycle

Between six games on the TV I can cycle up to three three games on the computer so that’s nine that I can kind of be tracking uh when the hockey comes back uh on the 27th uh there’s going to be 12 games on at once for a short period

There I I’ll I’ll do my best what Jersey do you own that you would wear to an ugly sweater party I know which one I would wear the Montreal barber pole motus oh see for me it’s the Montreal barber pole we would be like all the

Hideousness no one would miss us at that party it’ be like when I got all my neon in the early 90s and I I said to my mother I said what do you think of my new outfit and I had all the bright yellow and green neon and she said

Anybody who says they didn’t see you today they’re not your friend because there’s no way they didn’t see you uh is there a Christmas tradition that you have that most people don’t I didn’t do it this year I used to watch uh the Alis Sim Christmas Carol every Christmas Eve uh starting about

8:00 on Christmas Eve I would watch alist SIMS Christmas Carol um it is it is my favorite of the Christmas movies just from a traditional standpoint that’s as close as I have to a tradition gosh I have lots of Christmas traditions that I do with the kids but they’re all

Things that I’ve made up myself because I don’t really have family you guys have seen my mom on here that’s that’s all I have that’s that’s it for family so um I’ve anim made it all up we definitely have a lot of traditions but I don’t know how many how much of it’s

Unusual it’s just stuff that I’ve made up I don’t know do I have any unusual Christmas traditions TOA I I don’t know that’s not unusual whatever whatever I don’t know that I’ve ever seen anybody having tutor is Christmas dinner whatever that’s not unusual for me it is I never had that

Before you it was always just turkey or ham I I knew people at at ham for Christmas dinner and those people were evil and I would you know just immediately just no don’t come near me ham it’s ham what’s no it’s turkey season take that ham and turn it into a

Turkey so for Christmas Eve I do like um snacky stuff so I do meats and cheese and crackers and veggies and dip and all of the tons of treats that I’ve been cooking for the past week which seriously why are the kids eating the Cy and they’re stocking when I have

So much baked goods our kitchen is full of things that I’ve baked the past week anyways but that’s what we do on Christmas Eve and we watch fun Christmas movies and for on Christmas Day I make cinnamon rolls for breakfast um and I just let the kiddos open the presents and I

Know that we open presents really slow compared to a lot of people and people that are new to my family sometimes it drives them a little bit baddy how slowly my kids open gave up I came down and did videos this morning because I just gave up I’ve never

Understood 45 minutes in I was like okay so each kid’s done about four presents so we’re going to be here until the 29th opening presents I I think I’ll go downstairs and do a couple vide why Rush why rush so the kids like open presents they’ll actually open up their toys and

When they were tiny it was a little Lego set they would put together their Lego like they actually enjoy the presents that they open see I would get up instead of being super get up seven and I’d have all my presents open by eight no we don’t we don’t do that I

Just look and go cool all right next up all right cool next up you don’t do that and then and and but I did have to make sure I remembered which aunt gave me which item which uncle gave I had to make sure everything was writing the think you notes afterwards yep I

Remember that because I would have to you know they would call on Christmas and i’ be be like okay it’s Merry Christmas s so remember what they gave you okay I remember writing a letter to everybody I didn’t I didn’t have make I didn’t do that I I had but I had to

Talk first off I’m I’m trying to understand through the really thick newlander accent and then I’m trying to remember translate who gave me which sweater and and not to tell them it’s really itchy a New Finland sweater yeah like was a really itchy like I got you that

Fisher’s one I had this really really itchy Fisherman’s one that was bright orange like that that that traffic cone orange and it it was it was something fisherman pylon but it was warm that was the thing it was warm they are so let’s see and then for Christmas dinner we

Still have all the veggie trays and stuff but I do uh tosa and mashed potatoes and cranberries yeah yes all right and know before your time but you think you’d ever do a career video on Tim Horton yes um I do have the Hall of Famer Series so

At some point in time I could do a video on Tim Horton uh for that to work though I have to actually be drinking Tim Horton’s I think it’s the only way it works otherwise it’s just wrong and there’s people in the states that may very well not know just how ingrained

Tim Hortons is and everything Canadian I told you Timmy taken over from McDonald timy is bigger hello Lis um I told you about my friend who is American and she was visiting in Canada and she was I forgot where she was she was on a walk and she was talking to

This guy and how he was saying that he was Canadian and talking to him and she was all excited and was talking about how uh Tim Horton’s up here and he just chat with Tim Horton she was like oh my gosh Yvonne I met this guy I’m like no

He’s he’s screwing with you no she had no idea no clue it’s funny okay so that yeah I need to make that video then favorite Christmas movie Muppet Christmas Carol that one’s great I actually just watchr Carol I just watched that with elf is very good can I

Say night of the Comet of course you can I would say night of the Comet because Christmas is in it um the shrining used to be my favorite Christmas movie because it has everything Christmas it has snow isolation anger and family so for that it’s like The Ultimate

Christmas movie and by the end everybody’s crazy so Christmas there’s a lot of Christmas movies I like Gremlins is a good Christmas movie oh Gremlins is a fun Christmas movie I used to have the Golden Books Gremlin Christmas Golden Book like I would say I would say I had

A crush on Phoebe Kates but I grew up in the 80s every single guy had a crush on Phoebe Kates that was and I think half the girls did too what’s tosia um uh it’s meat pie it’s French Canadian it’s from Quebec and it’s with ground meat

Usually pork or pork and beef and it has different spices in it than a normal meat pie it has uh cinnamon and clove in it so it tastes different than other meat pies but it’s really good and that’s what I make for Christmas every year she absolutely does I really like

Meat pies though so I don’t mind meat pies meat pies are great that was one of my favorite things to get for like frozen things you could throw in the in the microwave when I was a kid that was that tasted good yeah the frozen meat pies you get from from the

Store I used to like those I used to have those all the time oh I like them too well it depends on the the brand but it was always I think it was McCain McCain’s meat pies everything’s McCain I heard you say that you weren’t a home

Alone fan I couldn’t believe that I’m not she is she loves Home Alone her kids love home alone I I think I like mccy caulin better now as an adult than I did when he was a kid when he was a kid drove anything he was in well no that’s

Not true I I wasn’t a fan of his like sacaran movies where he’s like slapick but the good son have you seen the good son I with him and Elijah Wood I don’t think so he’s evil in that movie and he’s a little kid and he’s the same age

He was in in Home Alone H he that movie oh my gosh that I can’t believe I’ve never had you that movie is so good and he is so believably evil like he he does bad things that could potentially killed people Uncle Buck is mccauly Culkin’s

Best movie rich I don’t like Richie Rich be the good the good son was so I think his dad talked him into that one too there’s a lot of talk oh this is gonna ruin his career why it’s fantastic he must have Christmas movies have to be National Po’s Christmas vacation that’s

Always our first Christmas movie we watch every year fantastic Muppet Christmas Carol agreed y the Santa Claus I like that in my opinion elf is overrated I really like elf. I think .l is hilarious I also like I like a lot of Christmas movies The

Grinch and see I wasn’t a fan of the Grinch I like the original cartoon I like oh the the man who invented Christmas the one about the making of the Christmas carol the Charles Dickens movie I really like that um um gosh there’s a lot of Christmas

Movies Falling For Christmas no you know Lindsay was awful and stupid and didn’t make sense I don’t think it was as bad as that Ridiculousness we watched last night but uh there’s a lot of horrible christm now if you’re talking about the Heather Graham movie that we watched

That movie was that movie was great I still don’t know what the tone is supposed to be and like like it’s this normal movie going in a normal Direction and then all of a sudden and magic and you’re like where did the magic come from we never established Santa Claus is really here

In this universe but he’s only in it for a moment so it’s okay it doesn’t do anything you could take that out and it make no difference to the movie whatsoever none you just pull that scene out and then the movie makes a lot more cohesive

There’s still a lot of stuff that like although although Heather Graham climbing down in middle of the sky and just all of a sudden and now we’re fine well the one where she broke she got out of the bedroom and climbing down and next scene wait what so she just got in

The house yeah she’s trapped outside and then they just cut to climbing off the balcony tomorrow and then yeah look what happened the next day but she was climbing she was she was stuck outside in the snow snow at night so how did is this like a fever dream she died and so

We’re having this dream now of what she thinks it’s GNA like I don’t yeah it was weird going to Boston Vancouver in February my two favorite team who do you think will take it Vancouver Vancouver is playing so well at home right now I’ll say Vancouver

Mary Christmas and to you as well wonder if that’s the real John Gibson Anaheim Ducks I’ve been very complimentary of John Gibson over the year and if it is the real John Gibson the best goendale hockey league I just don’t say it because I don’t want to make the other goalies

Jealous right that’s how that works hello everyone happy holidays to you as well Merry Christmas hope it’s amusing and amazing oh there’s been some amusement there’s definitely been some amusement amazement I’m not sure but the day is still young even though the sun’s gone down because it’s winter now so the sun goes

Down like two oh it’s comes up at like 10 in the morning goes down like 2 Merry Christmas is which coach would you put in a Christmas movie torella torella would have to be in that and if yeah it’d have to be John torella and then he’ he’d flip off the

Ghosts like you could have him as Scrooge and be flipping off the ghosts and swearing at him you would have like like one of the greatest imagine yelling and swearing yeah yeah yeah I just him shaking his head no you gotta be kidding me are you kidding no just that’d be

Great oh the referees the referee could be the three ghosts the refs of Christmas Past Christmas present Christmas future the Christmas future one could show that he’ show me gets screwed over in game seven of the Stanley Cup Final he wake up screaming in the morning holding on to his bed

Sheets I just wrote the greatest Christmas Carol ever John torella if you see this call me we’ll make this work the ref was an underrated movie The Ref is a good movie that’s um yeah that was that was a good movie it’s a Dennis L Kevin spy I want that movie

Lol that’ be great do you think torz has had his Grinch moment already uh you know he’s really softened up he’s not like I understand behind the bench he still gets all fired up and everything he’s really softened up though I think his experience in Vancouver uh turned him around he

Realized that the style of coaching he was doing he needed to make some alterations to it uh but he’s a lot more a lot more down to earth and I don’t feel like he’s as angry as he used to be uh expectation for the upcoming Winter

Classic rain it’s in Seattle and if it rains they’re goingon to have to close the roof because it’s a retractable roof on Team Mobile to um yeah I I would honestly be very surprised if it doesn’t rain it and that’s why when people say I wish Vancouver get an outdoor game I I

Get it had trouble during the Olympics when we had the Heritage game had a lot of trouble during olypic they had to close the BC place as well so they wanted to have the roof open and it just nope so I get why Vancouver doesn’t get doesn’t get an outdoor game because it

Is it is a challenge because it Reigns so much during the winter I guess you could say his heart grew three sizes there you go which current player would be the best for a holiday movie uh uh best for Holiday movie I I think you could have the three

Hughes Brothers any of the three Hughes brothers or the three collectively in a Christmas movie uh happy holidays everyone just sneaking in away from the big prime rib family dinner yum yum how will our knck do on the second half of this amazing season as long as they listen to tet and

They keep playing the systems he’s put in place they’re are playoff team and they should have home ICE advantage in the first round which will be insane if that happens but yeah they’re playing really well it is sustainable were the Olympics fun so much fun I I didn’t

Actually go to the Olympics so much fun she did I didn’t I enjoyed watching them on TV but yeah I was working so I couldn’t go to any of the actual events because I did not have money as a single mom of two little oh I didn’t have any

Money either cuz that was back in 2010 but they had so many community events they had so many things where they’d have the big blowup screens and the city parks and they’d have different things it was so much fun and that hockey final between the Canada and the US was

Amazing and it was so cool you could just I was in sui and you could just hear everybody just horns honking and everybody flying their Canadian flags out their doors and so much fun I really really liked it can I make that movie now what this is this isn’t much but I’d

Like to add to the frost and the fluous movie F Shannon’s enjoying his idea way too much though the frost in the flous is work Shannon it’s G to work happy holidays here’s to a great 2024 Frost and the flurious is GNA work I don’t see

Any reason why it won’t men diesel as his character from Fast and Furious as Santa Claus it writes itself see I don’t think you guys understand how comes up I did an entire video on the entertainment guy about this idea he will get these ideas and

He’ll find me wherever I am in the house he’s like okay we’re gonna be rich I’ve got it here’s what I’m gonna do and then when she I’m gonna make a video when she laughs at my idea I’m like now I’m gonna be rich and you’re not I’m Gonna Be Rich frequently guess

What I’ve got it sometimes it’s an invention oh my gosh yeah sometimes it’s a movie idea very often I have movie ideas a movie idea I have some really good movie ideas although a red letter media in their Christmas video they had the idea of how much fun it would be to

Have one of those body swap movies between Santa and Satan because their names are so close to one another somebody got mied so Satan has to learn how to build presence and save kids and Satan has or Santa has to learn how to torture people in hell and you could

Have like you have like heartwarming fun Christmas movie get everybody in the you know and they I was like I want that movie that movie doesn’t exist and I want it I want it so bad I just that would be the greatest holiday movie ever I’d watch that every year be like

Sweetie um who would you rather have lunch with Brian Burke or John torella that’s a tough call I I think torts I think torella would be a lot of fun I think you could get a lot of stories about players from his time with various in various stops he knows a lot

Of players he’s seen a lot of things and I would love to just ask him a question just one word Brookie and just see what it is exactly that started that complete disdain he has for Larry Brooks instant Christmas classic great uh who was more underrated Deitra

Or palfy Merry Christmas i’ go with paly as Z py was a very talented forward um who didn’t necessarily play on the best teams in the NHL so I think he flew under the radar a bit I just carried you which cats are mine can you tell bear

And Shadow cats are brought into this relationship and I’m still carrying them through this relationship it’s been how many years look at ezrael sleeps just like bare yeah they both sleep face down does that face plant sleeping too it’s really funny I’ve never had a cat that sleeps

Like that and azreel and be azreel and bear are the same cat it’s just they hate each other but I swear they have the same personality asz not quite as clingy though she’s getting there she’s clingy and insistent and she meows what bear wasn’t that clingy meow as a little

Cat she wasn’t that clingy either azriel’s gonna get there and Azrael will when she wants picked up she meows insistently and she does this she climbs your leg she doesn’t use her claws she’s really good with that but she mom mom mom usually when I’m cooking or you know doing something Mom

Mom if you can write the script for Frost and the flurious I can pass it to Michael B sounds good sounds good you got to just have explosions and and then there there was a comment too of well that’s not going to work because you know part of the

Selling point is a bunch of shirtless people and whatnot well it’s Santa overnight so I mean he can go to like really you know hot locals you know it would it would start in the snow and end in the snow but he could go to hot low Cals and why do you

Need people with their shirts on because it’s a Fast and the Furious movie oh there’s always Scandal clad people in the movies oh I’ve never watched I have offered for her to watch Fast and Furious she I really really don’t want to I think he’d enjoy the first one I

Don’t think I would I think he’d be okay with the first one racing cars and explosions it’s more than that no there’s no explosions in the first movie sound like a movie explosions come in later when they had to keep amping it up that really doesn’t sound like a movie I

Would enjoy my favorite’s Texas or Texas my favorite is Tokyo Drift Tokyo drift’s my favorite yeah and I think I’m the only one that Tokyo drift’s the favorite I don’t think anybody else thought it was their favorite Fast and the Furious but for me it was one of my cats sleeps on

Their back um our Lily bell used to sleep on her back it was the funniest thing with her little paws like are you I had a cat I had a cat that would do that and I’d be like Mom Mom Checkers got shot again and then the

Funny thing was we had a cat that would sleep in the sun with the sun on his belly and then the dog had come over all right and she just laid next to him with her paws in the air and I was like okay all right now both of our pets got shot

So yeah um I’ve only seen the first one say I’m not mention missing much that’s kind of what I figured you’re missing the family connection all time least favorite Jersey set o um when the Anaheim Ducks rebranded from the Mighty Ducks to the regular Ducks they just had the word

Mark boring it just um a friend of mine he took a girl to a hockey game and she said to him she said where where’s the duck’s logo and he said you’re looking at it there it is it was Kimber he’s like yeah that’s it

And she’s like but they had a fun Jersey and he goes yep that’s the new look and yeah really really disappointed and I I have to say that was that was the most disappointing change so it looks like there’s a few people on here that also like Tokyo Drift there’s also people

That say nope well there there are there are some who like Tokyo Drift I think it’s it had a lot of hate in the beginning and that softened up a bit but it’s fun I like drift racing you know what drift racing is yes it’s fun I like

Drift racing not personally but watching it it’s fun what um I’m an auto racing fan and I don’t like Fast and the Furious series I can I can see that like if you actually watch last two i’t watch it and just this is stupid I haven’t watched

The last two because I was like okay these are these are getting kind of kind of insane and then it’s like every year there’s a new one and it’s like okay that’s that’s enough that’s enough it doesn’t need to be a universe not everything needs to be a Cinematic

Universe why did you cut out the humor from your videos your sense of humor is really good and I had I’ve had people complaining that there’s too much humor get a lot of complaints about his humor I think a lot of people don’t get Shannon’s sense of humor it depends on

The situation it depends on what I’m talking about um I do the occasional video where I’m goofing around but I I I don’t do that very often I know I do it probably less often than I used to but there’s a certain schedule I’m sticking

To and again it has to be a a fun topic and it’s not not normally fun if it’s a news video obviously with reviews and previews there’s not a whole lot I can do to to Spruce that up with humor so I think it’s just a matter of the subject

Matter a lot of the time your humor is 80% sarcasm true and 20% just dry yes very dry yeah my mom was on here earlier and saying that we both have a dry sense of humor I and I think that’s why I think that’s why we appreciate British comedies yes

British comedies are very I I much word British comedy I generally just yeah I don’t like slapstick though I do not find slapstick funny no at all to me that’s not that’s not humor that’s not no come on now M no see no now girls girls girls what are

What are we doing here no see Maple what no I just going to lay up here by I’m not doing anything okay okay she’s innocent she’s not doing anything okay do you want to go over to the other one sister’s on the other one sorry not a Vin Diesel fan oh I’m

Not a Vin Diesel fan either um because he he very much is Just Vin Diesel in his roles the stupid one was when they drove a car from building to building they do that a lot no no when they went from Cliff to Cliff the best

One is when they jumped from Cliff to Cliff and I mean these Cliffs are not close they’re not close so any car is just gone but for them it’s just it’s straight gravity does not exist um are you still friends with Michael bé he he texted me after that

Game uh we went to against the Islanders every now and then he’ll say well I’ll call you soon has called for a while but it’s fine it’s not a big deal Let’s see we talk about the ego players have but who are some of the most humble players you have watched my

Short time watching Patrick marllo always stuck out to me for being very humble there’s a lot of humble hockey players honestly most of them most of them are pretty down to earth pretty humble about their accomplishments um whenever I’ve met like alumni and and you know for

Whatever meet and greet stuff’s going on they’ve always been nice hockey players are known for being being probably the most down to earth of North American athletes it’ be hard for me to pick just like one that’s down to earth out of the bunch oh you don’t like Mr Bean Mr Bean

Is fantastic my kids love Mr Bean where where my kids love Mr Bean all three of them really like Mr Bean um our youngest really really likes the Johnny English so much that she’s drove her brothers crazy um okay she jumped over yeah the middle one watched the Mr Bean Christmas

The other day and he thought that was fantastic Oh Black Adder for the win Red Dwarf for the win Red Dwarf is great Mr Bean is great I do really like Mr Bean I love the the series when he’s like when he’s in the church that one was so funny what

I like with Mr Bean there was one Christmas there was one Christmas I spent with that that uh family from El Salvador I used to hang out with well some of them their English wasn’t good doesn’t matter Mr Bean there’s no there’s no words so we just sat there

And we all laugh together we it was great and I think that’s part of the the appeal of Mr Bean you don’t have to speak English to think it’s funny so Faulty Towers is hilarious Faulty Towers is one of the most funny consistently funny very very show I’m a bad boy bad

You’ve been a bad boy faulty where is sure ah the turkey scene yep that’s what I always think of with the Christmas one did you receive the American Mr Bean movie no don’t don’t watch it why would I watch that because if you’ve watched anything Mr Bean before didn’t they just

Take all the bits Britain and they just they shired and killed it I was like oh this is for if somebody’s never seen Mr Bean ever in their life it was so lame like when they tried americanizing Doctor Who it didn’t work either right that’s why didn’t like that one season

With Amy Pond because they were trying to make it American I was like this doesn’t work Doctor Who is a British show embrac the fact it’s British oh my favorite Mr Bean sketch of all time is him making the sandwich in the park that was funny all of they’re all funny the

One with him with his car where he ends up on the roof when he was changing or he’s like he’s getting ready when he was trying to yeah that’s funny too um and then oh with the nativity set him with the nativity set on Christmas that is one of

The funniest things I’ve ever seen with the Sheep coming and just throwing in the sheep and then they all end up going in the Patty wagon to get driven away then a doll comes in yeah that’s right there’s a dinosaur and a doll Germany yeah that was that was one of

Need to watch the Mr mean Christmas and then a helicopter comes in and takes baby Jes away ah that was funny okay I need to watch that now yeah yeah Mr be Christmas is one of the funniest okay uh British series I absolutely loved growing up is Masterpiece mystery Miss Merle for the

Win oh I did like Miss Merle too um yeah I really like I like British shows I watch way more British shows I like tre’s company I preferred Upstairs Downstairs which was the show that it was based on Upstairs Downstairs that’s why the first season of thre’s company

Is completely different from the entire rest of the series because the first season of of Threes Company is based on those plots from Upstairs Downstairs except they made Chrissy stupid she was not stupid in the British version um and then the rest of the series is just got

Stupider as it went on well especially once once once it became an American show then they really amped up the the dumb parts of the character um yeah what is the best TV show of all time you know it’s lost its luster but it would have to be Simpsons it’s been around

Forever you you can’t have a bad quality show that lasts that long it’s been on the air for over 30 years I was in high school when it came out long time ago though I will I will with that I will concede that but was like eight it’s

Been around for so long and it’s so quotable there’s so many quotes from Simpsons that I still use it should have stopped years later long time ago long time ago I don’t I I haven’t found it funny for years H but the office the office had its moments too the office

Absolutely hilarious what is it baby hi she gets up all the way on her very tiptoe back toes and like hops it’s so cute you looking for you looking for a piece um Simpsons season 3 through seven some of eight was Peak there you go oh the grimy episode yeah see that she

Actually ate it while I was holding her well no she booking where is it okay here you want another piece um see look she’s eating I’m holding her Yum Yum Yum yep Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum I’ll eat that that’s what she was after Married with Children no and it hasn’t aged well

I I’ve tried rewatching with children I was like no I think it was my crush on Christine Applegate I think that’s what a lot of it was um which I can say because she’s I think she’s older than me I think I think she I think Christine

Applegate’s older than me I think so I think she’s right about your age yeah I as you get older you have to watch you know online I don’t I don’t have any you’re good you just had two pieces you had two you did you had two pieces uh what were

Your favorite Christmas gifts you got as kids um My Hot Wheels set she’s not done hi Mom you don’t need more dad put me down she gets right up on her tippy toes and hops she hops Tippy toast yeah she she was like I I didn’t say put me down

Hi what what do you want cute little face what do you want what are you after I just gave you two pieces sweetie you don’t need more you don’t though thoughts on Always Sunny in Philadelphia I love always sunny it’s not really an Ivon show um it’s pretty pretty dark um

But I love it what I love with always sunny and Philadelphia is that the episodes just kind of end so you know something something crappy happens and then it’s kind of over like all right uh we may come back to that storyline later we may not and you’re just it’s just

Done I respect that so yeah I really enjoy it’s always sunny um what about all in the f family All in the Family was a great show the the issue I have with it is that um there are some that seem to think like Archie Bunker because he was the main

Character he’s like a hero and stuff I’m like no wasn’t really written that way um yeah I really really wasn’t written that way but I I really did enjoy All in the Family my grandfather didn’t because I think he saw a lot of himself in Archie Bunker even dressed like Archie

Bunker he had the the the bush cut and he had his own chair too he weren’t allowed to sit in there’s a lot of Archie Bunker with my grandfather so because my mom and I would watch him we’d be like well there’s grandpa so yeah um let’s see I’m 177 CM 92

Kilograms what size try should I get um gosh that’ be so almost six feet right I know that that would probably be about a medium that’s like Gabriel’s size I’d go with large just cuz you’re yeah but I would go on to the Adidas site and best way is

To go on your chest measurement and Adidas are it’s 26 in for large 24 22 uh go by your bus measurement that’s the easiest way to check that it’ll actually fit you properly yeah but you’re about the same size as one of our boys and I’m

Trying to think what size I usually get him I think I usually get him a 50 which is medium right so a 50 or a 52 I would think but I would go off of your measurement on the site um you can also kind of go off of what T-shirt size you

Wear and convert it to the Jersey sizes they are very close but the jerseys are longer any love for CSI I tried CSI police procedurals and stuff like that yeah I mean I I used to watch um I used to watch Criminal Minds but eventually I found that I was having a

Lot of nightmares but I was watching a lot of criminal mines I was like oh okay this is disturbing maybe I should stop watching Criminal Minds those nightmares went away um so yeah um Criminal Minds was one I really liked I was never really a huge fan of CSI Criminal Minds

Too got really ridiculous later on it it felt like which is normal once you get into like season 13 or 14 it it gets kind of tough I don’t I don’t like shows like that no Um I love the Sherlock Holmes with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman I like those too I thought that was good very interesting show it is different but I do like a lot of yeah I like different shows um did I get that one I did

Okay where am I okay uh I always binge watch Harry Potter during Christmas LOL I’ve heard of other people doing that yeah because they have Christmas like every every movie yeah that’s pretty F our Fanatics better if you don’t like all the chesty stuff going on with the

Logos with Adidas yes yep logos the logos are very pliable they yeah they’re bendy and they’re not all stiff our oldest much prefers the Fanatics so we get him Fanatics jerseys to where he he likes how they feel way better than the Adidas so I am not a fan of how the

Fanatics are made but there is a place for them I have a couple I I I don’t have a lot if I have them it’s because I I can’t find a jersey and an Adidas of that of that variety um who’s lying Is It Anyways great show um and it really

Takes me back a bit too because I always enjoyed doing improv I always enjoyed doing improv I always thought it was a lot of fun I miss doing improv but it’s not like there’s improv groups locally that I can just go hang out with so yeah

Okay no not really I have Adidas and fanatic Jersey in my closet it’s for the most part identical when it comes to the chess logo no that is not correct the Fanatics logos are very very bendy they’re very bendy made so that you could it up and put it in a especially

The current Adidas the the new prime prime green ones those logos are even less flexible than they were on the climalite really don’t flex the the Adidas jerseys both the logo on the chest and on the shoulder that they are patches they are embroidered patches they are much thicker they are much

Stiffer and they have the different layers of fabric and the stitching the Fanatics logos are sublimated onto that shiny Fabric and then they’ll have one layer of Embroidery in certain spots but the it’s really really bendable appliable it’s not stiff like the Adidas logos they are very different but they

Look similar like if you’re not right up close you can’t necessarily tell the difference I usually can tell pretty quickly but oh look look really they’re the same size and the same shape they don’t look different but they feel very very very different they’re completely different material they are made very

Different would you ever do a Pittsburgh Meetup if we ever went to Pittsburgh yeah we we plan to do one in Anaheim um we will be doing one in Anaheim yeah it’s just a matter of on Monday of we’ll do one on Monday of a win we have to get our flights first

Yeah yeah and we’re going to the game we will be going to a hockey game in Anaheim while we are there that’s going to be fun which will be awesome absolutely yep my dad and I Bond over the flyers I showed him your channel and we appreciate your coverage of all

Things hockey definitely one of my favorite channels to watch thank you greatly appreciated uh there we go okay fat issues with fanatic logos numbers peeling off just FYI because those are glued whereas the are stitched on but if your logo on a Fanatics Jersey is

Peeling off it is very very easy to fix especially if you do it right away if you know anybody that sews all you do is do a zigzag Stitch around the edge Works fantastic and then it will not peel anymore I have done that to our jerseys it makes them wear really nicely

It’s too bad that they don’t do that true uh what’s Wild cap situation and are they going to be productive playoff team in the coming year they have an issue in Minnesota where the the buyout penalties are bad this year I think it’s two more years after this it’s either

One or two more years after this that they’re still going to be in a really bad cap situation so they’re going to have to rely on young players like they are right now with Rossy fa uh guys who are on Lower paid contracts too and they’re just going to have to navigate

It the plan is to stay competitive and to potentially uh to poten end up um you know as a contender would be the hope but at least to stay in the mix that’s the plan that’s why you make a change behind the bench and so far it’s worked with John

Hines um yeah and then just it’s it’s going to be a matter of pinching pennies and being smart with money did or do you watch beavs and Butthead remember the Christmas special one of my seasonal go-tos I used to watch beis and but head

A lot um my my wife is less of a fan of beas and Butthead than I am that is not my sense of humor um I I I do I do think that that the corn Holio bits very funny she does not think it’s very funny um anytime I pull my t-shirt shirt

Up over my head and I get my hand she’s like nope doesn’t even find it funny not even a little so and it’s a shame because I used to be like awesome at it I’m sure I only I was in school I was the only guy that did that no oh my gosh

All of the boys I was in school when be and but head were hug I was not and all of the boys were quoting beis and bad all the time I thought it was so stupid I didn’t find it funny then I still don’t find it funny every time

Every time I hear like on a throwback Channel and I hear Winger I immediately think of the fact that that that’s what the dorky kid had was the Winger t-shirt just as single-handedly destroyed Winger it just and I mean Kip Winger in general the music wasn’t fantastic because was hair metal

And some hair metal was bad but yeah the moment that that Stuart’s wearing a Winger shirt done that’s just ah um apparently the new Fanatics Mitchell and NES jerseys are popular Mitchell and Nest make fun things the one thing I’ve heard with the Mitchell and s jerseys is the colors are a little

Off like I’ve heard people say that that the colors are a little off I haven’t seen I haven’t seen that we saw one in h Vancouver didn’t we I have a Mitchell and Nest Jersey they are quite different from the other jerseys I have but I do have the one

Mitchell it’s Blackhawks old Blackhawks yeah yeah Mitchell andess usually makes some fun interesting I like their hats it’s interesting they make fun hats their hats are really expensive right now ra they’ve made some new NHL ones but they are so insanely expensive too bad they have really fun design it’s a shame

Because yeah they they are neat hats in a time where there’s not very many hats that are memorable no they’ve made them boring they really have Fanatics of boring them right out did you watch Blackberry did you watch Nirvana the band the show not yet nope gonna watch

Blackberry I have to watch Blackberry I don’t know if I’ll go with the series or the movie or both probably both old Mitchell and nests were great they were bought out by Fanatics and it’s gone downhill oh well that’ll do it a lot of things that’ll do it fanatics fanatics

Has basically cornered the market on North American Sports just in general anything merchandise wise uh they’ve just bought it not a fan of fanatic hats I’m not a big fan either I don’t like the fabric they’ve changed to I think the designs are in general way more boring they’re definitely generic

They’ve taken the of it and I really don’t like the fabric they use yeah any of the fun hats that I have are usually either Adidas or Reebok Reebok has some really they’ve taken over European Sports as well a it it is approaching Monopoly levels very Bland designs

Yep yep yep that’s what we noticed too like they were taking over the quality of the hats is dropped the quality of the materials they use has dropped off a lot so why can Fanatics have a monopoly they have the money to buy it

All so they have the money to buy it all they they do that with the advertising too there’s Fanatics ads everywhere so they’re making a ton of money they even have their own sports book yep I don’t I don’t understand Fanatics has their own sports book that is seems wrong it absolutely

Does all right um I know you said you don’t watch much us College hockey have you seen much of Jimmy snugger snugger okay and do you think he turns Pro after this season I have not watched him but I do think he turns Pro after this season um he’s seen

As having a pretty high upside and I I I admire players that stay and and do the full College thing and don’t necessarily Go Pro right away but I I do think he’ll go pro we were a bit spoiled with Reebok and Adidas jerseys I like the rebok jerseys rebok

Jerseys were fine I I did enjoy rebok they did snag there were things that I I liked when they switched to Adidas reok way easier than I preferred reok right but if they just changed that that the main Jersey material made it better less snable but I preferred the

Reox yeah I won’t argue with that um I haven’t watched a connect game since 2011 is it time to start watching again they’re a fun team they are a fun team to watch uh B’s playing the best hockey of his career SS Miller Hughes Patterson Demco everybody’s dialed in

Right now everybody’s buying into what talk it’s selling it’s going quite well for them is it worrying that no Big Brand wants the contract to make jerseys it’s probably a cost thing uh I don’t think making Jersey ftic is probably willing to FS is the only team that bid

Because they want they want that market they want that Monopoly so we’ll see how it goes anyways we should get going it’s been about two hours so we should get going oh yeah and um kids are quiet so that’s usually the boys were doing a video call with Grandma okay and then

Adel’s watching Christmas movies that the boys didn’t want to watch right she was like I’m the only one up here yes watch stuff that nobody going uh but uh yeah this was enjoyable so I hope everybody had a good day today and if you didn’t well tomorrow’s another day
