This is the Jeff Merrick Show on the Sports Net Radio Network.

Well, he started the fight when he hit me back.

Welcome back to the program and Wednesdays MVSW time,

MVSW Reducks, alongside Greg Wasinski from from E-S-P-N.

He started it when he hit me back.

I'm just trying to think like logical equivalence here

of what we just heard from Jamie Ben

about the cross-check or the landing spot or the landing point on Mark Stone last

night Greg Vashinsky and a hearing later today with Ben and Perros, Greg Wasinski.

Yeah, I was in the room for all this fun just a scant like 15 minutes ago.

And it was interesting to hear Jamie take responsibility for his body and

for his stick as he probably should be very responsible for having done this same

thing to Dylan Larkin a few years ago and then and then it took a turn Jeffrey it took a turn it took a turn when all of a sudden Jamie Ben said,

I would have, obviously I would have liked to not fall on him

and I guess use my stick as the landing point.

And let me tell you right now that my text messages went to flame

with people from around the league inside of teams outside of teams teams, inside the league,

outside the league, being like, oh my God,

what did he just say?

Yada, yada, yada, yada.

So if that's the defense for Jamie Ben in this hearing,

maybe it'll be more than a game. Maybe they'll just give them an extra game for the utter ridiculousness of I fell on him and used my stick as a landing point.
