The Florida Panthers won the Stanley Cup last night. I watched a lot of that game. God, every single Florida Panthers game that I watched this year. It started with the Toronto series and then I watched some of that Carolina series just to see how the caps would have fared against Florida. And I think I said in the moment, I don't think they would have fared very well. They just looked every game that I watched them in, not start to finish,

0:22.2

but enough of games, like easily the best team. But Chris Russell will help us sort out the

0:28.3

Florida Panthers and what they're in the midst of. They were not the best team during the

0:32.9

regular season, but they just won a second Stanley Cup. Chris will join us at 1040. I will weigh in on the

0:42.9

Caitlin Clark situation from last night. If you're not familiar with what happened last night,

0:46.9

I'll explain it coming up here shortly. But the Nats lost again last night, 10 to 6 to Colorado.

0:53.7

They gave up seven home runs in the game to Colorado.

0:57.6

For the Rockies, that tied a franchise best.

1:01.6

They had four home runs in one inning, which also tied a franchise all-time best.

1:08.5

How about four home runs in one inning, the seventh, as they stretched a

1:14.6

three-to-one lead to nine-to-one? The Nats did get themselves, you know, four runs in the ninth,

1:22.2

but they were down 10-2 entering that inning. So given Dave Martinez's comments after Saturday's loss to Miami,

1:30.7

when he was asked about the lack of offensive production, and he said, look, it's not,

1:35.3

it's, you know, and trying to parse out reasons for it, blame for it, if you will,

1:41.0

he said, well, it's not on the coaches, it's never the coaches. And that didn't go over well,

1:45.0

as Andrew Golden from the Post told us on Monday. Chelsea James mentioned it yesterday with us.

1:51.0

Players were not very happy about that. And, you know, the timing of it was that they had lost

1:57.1

after Sunday eight games in a row, including three straight to a bad Miami team with Colorado

2:02.9

coming to town. Colorado, as I mentioned, one of the worst teams we've ever seen in the first

2:09.2

half of a major league baseball season. And they've come in for the first two of four games with the

2:16.1

Nats, and they've won the first two.

2:18.0

So in most situations, when you've got a manager that has not had a winning record,
