Chase Thomas podcast. The Chase Thomas podcast. My nephew needs me to record. See, I hate, I already hate it. I hate it.

All right. Hello. Welcome back. Fred's Power Hour on a what? It's not a Friday. No, it's a Thursday afternoon. We were wondering last week if we were going to have to

tape this on a Saturday, if we were going to have to change our routine a little bit because

the Preds might sneak their way into the 2023 NHL postseason. But, alas, they are not going to be in the 2023 NHL postseason.

The Preds are done.

The Preds season is, it's over.

This will be it this week, and that is all she wrote.

But to talk about the Preds season, the Preds last week here, and

ultimately what happened down the stretch for for Nashville on the four checks, Brian Bastian,

Brian, good afternoon, sir. How are you? I'm good. Yeah, it feels weird to be done with the,

with the season this early. But I think that's also a nice help because you know

That's what you got to do. Jeff Middleton also here of let me check my notes here everywhere on the internet

Jeff good afternoon sir how are you I'm doing well doing well it's gorgeous outside up here in

little Oxford Ohio so it's it's super nice now that I don't have to walk outside and you know

be attacked by the cold so I'm really. It's been good for my mental health.

I didn't know where Miami of Ohio was. I just assumed it was Miami, Ohio. I did not realize

that it was Oxford. That's what I thought too. Yeah. Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

Well, at least it's easy to remember, and at least it all makes sense when you want to, when want to go down yeah so then where's the miami come from uh it is the so there's an indian

tribe that lived here and they are like i think the it's m y a a m ia or something like that like the
