Mr. Billy Jaffe, thank you for joining us on the 18th, The Expert Hotline.

I always have time for you, especially after Panda.

That's right.

Always.

How's a panda?

Who isn't?'t Billy take us through

I watched the game last night

and obviously there's a lot of injuries

it seems like a big

mismatch of names

I've never heard of or they're kind of in the back

of my head

well we were saying it earlier nine out of the 20 people who dressed for the Bruins yesterday had played at least one game in Providence last year. Yeah. Yeah.

He's got to continually do that.
