Walter Katz

I didn't woo.

No, I had my phone in my hand. Usually I clap, but I didn't give a woo in this situation. No, you can't woo.

I told you so is basically what I was feeling. I mean, this is exactly why I expected these playoffs to go.

Yeah, the entire way through. Can you be a cocky Panthers fan headed into the Stanley Cup final?

In 30 years of this team's existence, there's pretty much no reason for it. Earlier you said you wanted to spot the other team two wins. That's crazy. No, I said no on that. I said no with that. No, no. That was you, buddy. That was not me. But over the 30 years of this existence, like, they've been to the playoffs five straight times. Prior to that. Has it been five straight?

Yeah, it's been five straight times. Prior to that, it was five within the first 25 years. Right. You know, this is the third time they're going to the Stanley Cup final. This is back to back. Jack. Jack. I'm still not used to this. I'm not used to this success. And quite frankly, I'm pretty happy right now.

You know what I mean?

For this franchise right now, this is success.

I'm not going to say what I'm thinking. I'm not going to do that joke anymore.

Three consecutive Eastern Conference championships for them to be the Bills.

That's the main thing. They are much, much healthier than last season.

As a Jets fan.

They got to win. I love it. They have to win this one. There you go. And they are equipped to do so.

But if they don't, then what? Well, then we're going to have to do it again next year.

But Reinhardt.

President's Cup trophy.

We've been good the entire time he's been here. And playing in Calgary before he was traded, he has experience playing against the Oilers.

Oh, yeah. He got jumped by Cassian. He had the total.

I don't think he got suspended for that play. But, yeah, that was crazy.

No. It's like they're playing the Rangers, but tenfold because they have Dreisaitl and McDavid. Is it fair to say that Edmonton has two best players in the series? They have basically the two best players in the world. In the world. Dreisaitl's number two? Yeah.

Yeah. He's really, really good. And of course, McDavid's won three MVPs.

Yeah.

Yeah, and the Oilers, their defensive unit, they're not as good as the Panthers.

Kane? Evander Kane, yeah. I'm just like, I feel like we got four or five guys.

Oh yeah, the goaltending situation is going to be a vast gap.

Sweep, Roy? No. No, it's not going to be a sweep.

Yeah.

No. I'm going to soak it all in, but I'm not going to cry. You said that quick.

You'll be on the ice. You know you'll be down there. You get it, yeah. Yes, I am going to be on the ice, but I'm not going to hoist it. Kiss it? Would you kiss the cup? He would. I mean, they're not going to give me the opportunity to do so. How do you know?

Sure.

Open mouth? I'm sorry, what was that, Jessica?

Oh, with the Blackhawks?

Oh, when the Penguins won. Your other team.

Oh, nice.

Go ahead, gentlemen sweep.

Yeah, that'd still be three wins.

I don't want a seventh game. No, I don't. Definitely not this time, no. I don't want it.

I teared up once going to Wrigley Field because I'd never been there. That's the spot? That was the spot because I grew up being a baseball fan, and going to Wrigley was really almost majestic.

And then, of course, Claire. Is there a recall? Were you in the bleachers? Yeah, I was right behind home plate. Oh, then you were not in the bleachers. I was not in the bleachers. You were in the best seats in the house. I was right behind home plate.

We went to the Cubby Bear before the game and had a Cubby Bomb. What's a Cubby Bomb? It's like a shot.

No, it's a blue drink. I forgot what they had in... You didn't care. Yeah, I didn't care. It was alcohol, man. Have you had Malort, Roy? Not. Oh, that's the other thing I got to try, because if you go to Chicago, you got to try that terrible, terrible Malort stuff.

The Orange Bowl?

That's false.

Usually it's go Oilers, go up there.
