heyman’s face just looks painful I’m trying to figure out whose face looks worse Heyman or Brady kachuck this guy’s face looks great Marty you haven’t played for a long time you look fantastic like retirement straight in your great buddy you know what I once broke a to J chewing on a bagel before a game not taking a puck to the face but chewing on a bagel that’s what happened to me I get it I get it it happens sometimes what can you say about Zach Heim and Marty you know we know he had that kind of slow start to the season lately he’s been picking it up and I thought well he broke knows maybe we maybe he’s going to take a night off or or not go quite as hard but that’s just not in his DNA is it that is not in his DNA and I know McDavid and dry side all they drive a bus with the Edmonton oers but you look at Heyman I think he’s the X Factor in the first 20 games of the season the ERS were 10 eight and two we all know that Hyman only had three goals in the first 20 games is expected goals were still about a 35 per game so he was getting chances he was just not converting those chances but in the last seven games Zack hman is expected to score a goal per game that is amazing he’s number one in the NHL in the last seven games with a one goals expected per game he actually overperforms having scored eight now in seven games and the Oilers are six and one in those games so you think of the first 20 games where they were just a couple of games over 500 and now with Hyman scoring you’re still getting getting McDavid getting his point in his goal in dry Sidle but it’s adding a layer now and it is producing wins not just goals for hman but wins for the team and if he doesn’t score the 2-1 goal I know it’s a bad goal on San but if he doesn’t score that goal the ERS don’t win that game like they were down to nothing somebody needed to come up with a big goal Z himman got it done and for that he’s been fantastic of late SS have been fantastic of late and specifically their goenda alar who Marty really seems like he was born to play in Canada he’s having a great time he’s so fun in the postgame scrums and the pregame scrums he’s got to be the biggest reason this team is finally taken off right yeah and I got to know him a lot uh you know when he was playing with the Buffalo Sabers and I I I kept telling people two weeks three weeks ago like give him a chance he’s on a new team learning a new system he was a little banged up in the beginning of the Season he’s going to come around and what we’ve seen now is yes he’s won his last seven starts but since November 2 seventh is 80 and one and in that time frame he has saved 15 goals over expect expectations now I get is goals against average and save percentage are out of this world they’re fantastic but I love this goal save above expectation stats because it measures you against an average goal tender like he saved 15 goals in in nine games over expectation the closest goalie in death time frame in the NHL is Jacob marstrom who has saved seven 15 compared to seven like that’s how dominant Lena Sark has been and then you see the play that he made on the overtime game winner he gets the assist secondary assist he gets it up the ice he’s having so much fun he’s playing loose he’s making big glove saves like that is Lena Sark in the nutshell that’s why he was so good in Boston he was really good in Buffalo as well and now because of that I think Ottawa is a playoff team they are in a wild card spot but they get the goal ending now and I think Ottawa is going to make the playoffs because of Lena tough loss for the Calgary Flames uh you know maybe they can look at Ottawa as a team who you know struggled for so long and now finally seem to be figuring it out you know maybe they can see that as a bit of a model but we know it’s still a rebuilding team in Calgary Marty you know if if you’re talking about GM Craig Conroy what do you think in his mind would be a successful season for Calgary well what they’re doing right now is Success early in the season right you’re in the mix you’re you’re putting yourself in a wild card position you’re falling off out one one day you’re coming back the next I think this is a successful step forward for the Calgary Flames do I expect the flame to make the playoffs at the end of the year no I think Colorado is behind them is going to come on strong Utah after a good start and then a slow kind of you know little patch there they’re going to come on strong so I think the Flames probably miss out on the playoffs this year but what they’ve been doing there’s some individuals on that team that are having good seasons why because the last few years has been tough cadri hubero like those are veterans you can rely upon but when it comes to the trade deadline and I know we’re still two months away from the trade deadline but I think the Flames have to think okay how can we even get better right like kzco Barry on defense maybe even Dan vladar like there’s teams that are going to look for goal tending and vladar has been great but we all know Dustin wolf is the guy for the Calgary Flames so I think being in the mix is a successful season but I wanted see the Flames think of what about about next year what about two years down the road and start making those phone calls now so they’re prepared in a couple of months when the deadline comes around very interesting Saturday coming up for these three teams Ottawa takes on Vancouver but Calgary has Connor Bard and the Blackhawks the Oilers have Macklin celebrini and the Sharks to get to see the future of the NHL uh Marty you were great thanks for this buddy appreciate it e
