Conference Call Transcripts



Sidney Crosby
Michel Therrien


05.08.08 

Wales Conference Finals



Pittsburgh versus Philadelphia. Let the bloodletting begin. UPDATE: It was just announced Kimmo Timonen has a blood clot in his foot. He's likely out for the series. Hard to get happy after that one. Unless, you know, you're a Penguin fan.




05.08.08 

Campbell Conference Finals



(Sunshine) Detroit.



05.08.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Topics include a conference finals preview, an exclusive Gary Bettman interview, space monkeys, and Top 11 Songs from Bands You Hate. And, yes, Jerry does want it that way. Backstreet Boys? Really?




05.07.08 

Conference Call Transcripts



The NHL had a bunch of confernece calls yesterday. I didn't have time to write full articles, but here are the transcripts.
Marty Turco and Brenden Morrow
Henrik Zetterberg
Dave Tippett
Mike Babcock


05.07.08 

Second Round: New York vs Pittsburgh



I think we all learned something from the Rangers-Penguins series. Personally, I didn't even know weasels had spleens.



05.06.08 

Second Round: Philadelphia vs Montreal



No matter how much he struggled, Carey Price is still a swell goalie. He'll be fine. I'd be happy to give him another compliment, but I'm scared he'd drop it.



05.06.08 

Second Round: Colorado vs Detroit



Writing this article sickened me.



05.05.08 

All Hail Morrow



It took four overtimes, but Brenden Morrow and the Dallas Stars finally snuffed the Sharks.



05.04.08 

Hossa!



Maid Marian no more. Hossa delivers in the clutch, and the Penguins waddle into the conference finals.



05.04.08 

Nothing to It but to Do It



I ain't afraid of no 0-3 deficit. I got your four straight wins right here.



05.02.08 

Wings Bury Avs



It's over. It's all over. And I'm not just talking about the Colorado-Detroit series. Plus, The Rangers prolong the inevitable.



05.01.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



We talked playoff hockey, discussing the Flyers-Habs, Pens-Rangers, and even those filthy Red Wings getting lucky against the Avs. Other hockey topics included Sean Avery injuring his spleen, the trophy nominations, and an exclusive interview with Alexander Ovechkin. Then we unveiled a new segment, "The Super Terrific Space Monkey Ghost Happy Hour with Zippy the Wonder Chimp." And Brandon Dameshek made his triumphant return, battling Jerry in the Top 11 Worst TV Shows. Two hours of fake radio gold.



04.30.08 

Birds Batter Blueshirts



The Pittsburgh Penguins put the Rangers on the brink, taking a 5-3 decision in MSG. And they couldn't have done it without Ryan Hollweg.



04.28.08 

Crosby Doesn't Dive



I've had enough of the Kid Crosby bashing. Plus, Michel Therrien continues to win his war with common sense, the Stars have the Sharks on the ropes, and Detroit still sucks.



04.25.08 

Second Round Preview



Dallas vs. San Jose.



04.25.08 

Second Round Preview



Here's a quick look at the New York-Pittsburgh series.



04.24.08 

Second Round Preview



I'm strapped for time, but here's a quick preview of the series that start tonight. I'll have the other two, not to mention the remainder of the first round recaps, tomorrow.



04.24.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Yeah, we talked hockey, but the true highlights were an in-depth discussion of the amazing "Paranormal State" TV show and a visit from the great Brandon Dameshek, who helped us with our list of Top 11 Worst Bands. Good times, good times.



04.23.08 

First Round: Philadelphia vs Washington



That was a great series. I was so impressed, I wanted to buy Alexander Ovechkin a drink, but he passed on the shot.



04.23.08 

First Round Recap: Calgary vs San Jose



It's almost too horrible to imagine. Joe Thornton and Jeremy Roenick are playoff heroes. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes... the dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!



04.23.08 

First Round Recap: Colorado vs Minnesota



Score one for the old guys.



04.21.08 

First Round Recap: Dallas vs Anaheim



Ding-dong, the Ducks are dead.



04.20.08 

First Round Recap: Ottawa vs Pittsburgh



Kid Crosby and crew took a broom to Ottawa's sorry ass. And someone needs to tell Jason Spezza and Dany Heatley the series is over. I think they're still waiting for it to start.



04.17.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Jerry Fairish and I recapped the first round of the playoffs, including live coverage of Pittsburgh's sweep of those filthy Senators. Then we talked some TV, a little "There Will Be Blood," and then we did our Top 11 Sports Heroes.



04.15.08 

Two Quick Ones



The Nashville Predators aren't done yet, rising from the dead to stun those filthy Red Wings in Game Three. Aw, it was glorious! Plus, Kid Crosby buries the Senators, and Sean Avery joins the circus.



04.14.08 

Fish Fry



In Game Three of the Calgary-San Jose series, Owen Nolan came back to haunt his old team, scoring late in the third period to lead the Flames to a thrilling 4-3 victory. San Jose lost despite scoring three goals in the game's first three minutes. Which begs the obvious question: do sharks even have a gag reflex?



04.12.08 

Close Call



The Ottawa Senators tried to Hamburgler Game Two, but the Pittsburgh Penguins prevailed in the end, getting a late goal from Ryan Malone to take the 2-0 series lead.



04.10.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Jerry Fairish and I went a full two hours, yet we somehow still managed to talk about absolutely nothing of importance. Well, we did make our predictions for the first round of the playoffs, talked about the draft lottery, and then did our Top 11 movies from the 1980s. And Jerry loves himself some Anthony Michael Hall.



04.09.08 

(Sunshine) Don Brennan!



The Ottawa-Pittsburgh series begins tonight, but the war of words has already started. Or at least I think it has. I still can't understand a word Bryan Murray says.



04.09.08 

Ruff, Hitchcock Transcript



The NHL held a conference call with Lindy Ruff and Ken Hitchcock to get their thoughts on the first round. It's really not that interesting, but I felt obligated to run it for all you Hitchcock fans out there. See, I read your emails. Enjoy your man, ladies!



04.08.08 

First Round Preview: Campbell Conference



C'mon, Predators!



04.07.08 

First Round Preview: Wales Conference



The playoffs are here. Start pouring.



04.07.08 

Broadcasters Conference Call



The NHL held a conference call with Don Cherry, Mike Milbury, Pierre McGuire, and Mike Emrick. It's okay. Highlights include Cherry talking about toast and Milbury revealing his pet name for Marian Hossa.



04.03.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Yeah, we talked some hockey, but the big news was that our buddy Ryan Saeler, better known as Popeye the Producer from Dave Dameshek's Sports Contraption, returned to the show. Popeye served as the celebrity judge for this week's Top 11. Oh, and we also had a real live meth addict call the show. Good times.



03.29.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Since BlogTalk went loopy last Wednesday, Jerry and I did a special Saturday podcast so we could finish up our Top 11 movie actors. Then we talked some TV, including my new favorite show... "UFO Hunters." And that's not sarcasm. I love the "UFO Hunters." Can't get enough of it. I'm gonna go hunt me some space monkeys.



03.28.08 

Ray Shero Conference Call



The NHL keeps cranking out the conference calls. And this one's pretty interesting. The Pittsburgh GM talks about Marian Hossa's health and future with the team, Kid Crosby's ankle the day after his return, and Ryan Whitney's time at left wing. It's good stuff.



03.28.08 

Sid Who?



Who needs Kid Crosby when you've got Jarkko Ruutu? Plus, the Capitals win again, Willie O'Ree makes the TV, and Mike Keenan continues to win friends and influence people.



03.28.08 

Staal Brothers Conference Call



The NHL Media held a conference call with Eric, Jordan, and Marc Staal on Wednesday. There really isn't much of any interest, but I figured someone might want to read it, so here's the straight transcript. My favorite part is when they talk about the fourth Staal brother... Gummo.



03.27.08 

Montreal's Main Man



Guy Carbonneau has the Montreal Canadiens poised for a return to Stanley Cup glory.



03.27.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Our buddy Atlanta Frenchy Thrasher Guy called in to talk playoff races, the Patrick Roy fiasco, and no-touch icing. Jerry and I then tried to get through our Top 11 Actors list, but BlogTalk went loopy and ended the show early. Aw, that's just BlogTalk being BlogTalk.



03.26.08 

Ovechkin, Boudreau Conference Call



On Monday, Alexander Ovechkin and Bruce Boudreau held a conference call with NHL media. I didn't have a chance to write an article about it, so here's the complete transcript. And these are the real questions. No jokes. But you do learn some interesting things, like Ovechkin's obsessive man-love for Jarome Iginla and Boudreau's shocking ignorance of the word "validate."



03.25.08 

Best Rehearsal Ever



Last week, I wrote about guys having vastly underappreciated 2007-08 seasons. This week, let's look at some of the more disappointing efforts. I don't want to say these guys underachieved, but the post office started sending them my mail by mistake.



03.24.08 

LCS Facebook



I have no idea what a Facebook is or what a Facebook does, but Ace Reporter Jim Iovino swears it's real popular with the kids. So if you'd like to join the LCS Hockey Facebook group, just follow that there link. And new articles are on the way. Honest.



03.20.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



Among other topics discussed, our buddy Sean Leahy busted out his very own LCS Hockey Radio Show drinking game. Good times.



03.19.08 

Thar She Blows!



It's been years, but LCS finally has a new drinking game. You're welcome.



03.17.08 

Well Done, Sir



It's hard to believe the season's almost over. Time sure flies when you're insignificant. But before we gear up for the playoffs, I wanted to take a moment to mention a few guys having quietly spectacular seasons. All these players have gone above and beyond expectations in 2007-08. So, yeah, the list is completely free of Islanders.



03.13.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



After talking hockey and some fantasy baseball, we closed things out with our Top 11 Overrated Movies. And Jerry's list is overrated. It sucks more than "Knocked Up." Seriously, watch the "No Country for Old Men." It's wicked good.



03.11.08 

Home Videos



One of our loyal readers attended the Pens-Caps game over the weekend and was kind enough to record some videos for everyone to enjoy.



03.10.08 

Lost Weekend



The Washington Capitals had a weekend they'd like to forget. Thankfully, that's why Don Knotts invented gin. Drink up, boys. And give Backstrom a double.



03.09.08 

Top 11



Here's an update of the Radio Show's Top 11 lists, including Jerry's favorite albums. Funny, funny stuff. We should have another radio show this Wednesday at 9:30 PM EST, assuming Jerry gets back from Lilith Fair in time.



03.07.08 

NHL Roundup



There was all sorts of monkeyshine in the NHL last night. Here's a recap, including the Bruins getting clubbed again, the Royalty prolonging Ottawa's misery, and yet more hitting from behind.



03.06.08 

LCS Hockey Radio Show



We talked hockey for nearly half the show, discussing Kid Crosby's return, Alexander Ovechkin trying to lead the league in goals and points, and my popularity among Daniel Alfredsson fans. Then Jerry and I did our Top 11 Albums. Matthew Secosky even called in to make fun of Jerry. And when you hear his list, you'll make fun of him too. Hootie, dude? Really?



03.05.08 

Ovechkin Conference Call



The NHL held a conference call with Alexander Ovechkin yesterday. I didn't have time to write an article, so here's the complete transcript. And we'll talk more about Ovechkin, not to mention Kid Crosby and Peter Forsberg's return to action, on tonight's radio show.



03.04.08 

Boston Massacre



Ovechkin and the Caps crushed Boston last night, Bryan Murray gets busted for yappin', and the Avs get some bad news. But this just in: Kid Crosby is playing tonight in Tampa. Yeehaw!



03.03.08 

Malkin Conference Call



The NHL held a conference call with Evgeni Malkin today. That's right. A conference call with Malkin. Thankfully, Sergei Gonchar was around to translate.



03.03.08 

NHL News and Notes



Topics include Daniel Alfredsson once again proving the C on his sweater stands for something other than captain, Ian Laperriere respecting the game, and the emergence of Luca Caputi. Fear Caputi!
