I just tip a couple out there and try my best, but yeah, it's not good. Now, you've spent some time with Bolsey as well, too, and obviously you've spent some time around the Stanley Cup. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, a couple times. And my dad was always fun of Mike. So, you know, they had a great relationship. And, I mean, I'll, I mean, there's no way you can't be happy when you're around the Stanley Cup. So not that Mike's not a good guy. |
| 1:47.3 | That's not what I'm saying. But you know what I'm saying. Yeah, again, my dad really enjoyed spending time with you and you've always been great to him. And it's kind of nice to, you know, to see you here today. Yeah, well, it's good. I mean, we had a lot of fun. I got to know you obviously very well in 2001 when your dad just won his second Stanley Cup. |

And hanging out with your dad, I mean, I can tell so many great stories. One of my favorite stories, we were on a bus somewhere going somewhere. I'm kind of in the back, cups kind of up in the front. They were telling me that, you know, that sometimes Pierre's got like this thing. He's kind of like goes off like the Tasmanian devil. And I understood the same to the Tasmanian devil. Like, so Pierre, I'll get all upset, but then he'll come back in all nice afterwards. And so I heard that it was kind of a nickname that it was Taz. And I didn't know Pierre that well. And I'm in the back of the bus, and I go, whoop-lo-la-la-blah-de-blah-de-blis-li-de-le-le-le- And I did it a lot, bled, longer back in 01. I told me I had a heart attack now, but I did it back then. All of a sudden, he turns around and comes running back, he goes, what the hell was that? And I go, that was the Tasmanian devil. And he goes, do it again. He thought it was the greatest thing. |
| 2:35.9 | And then there's also about all his practice. Tasmania devil and he goes, do it again. |
| 2:35.6 | He thought it was the greatest thing. |
| 2:38.9 | And then there's also about all his practical jokes. |
| 2:42.3 | And I still remember we were in Vegas with all the hockey ops. |
| 2:46.8 | We had this magic horn that apparently brought the team all the great luck. |
| 2:49.9 | And he's doing his very serious speech. And he asked me to come up and, you know, blow the horn to start to see that on the right no and i kind of knew pier i had practical jokes i'm like come on pier what's going on mike this is very serious like you have to take the serious joe blew the horn last year we won the cup we think you can blow it this year and help us to win the cup again i'm like okay and I get it.
