oh my god how are those two going to work how do you square the circle. welcome to sochi and comb sophie shevardnadze as the winter olympic games are almost upon us and that means an international battle in the ring to take ice hockey gold. however wasn't a players locked out from the team russia forced to play under a neutral banner how different will the twenty eight hundred championship be from previous to five time stanley cup an olympic bronze medal is in jeopardy of the

olympic playoffs. stanley cup for an. unknown masters rise in the absence of the usual stuff star power reduced the competition to a second great show. eric corey it's really great to have you on our program thanks for being with us welcome to moscow we want to be here so let's start with the olympics and was happening there so this year and michelle players will not participate in the olympic games to use things their absence will actually make their race for the olympic gold like maybe sort of a second rate contest. well. the same tournament. it's not. there won't be there. it's a fast. who grew up. the

olympics and the countries where they're on you celebrate the olympics that the whole family was told because it's all about is done only with the hockey to put the sports. and all course got to skis. like the big family to join because. it's a sad story. this a lot of. old politics money or whatever this story is but. i don't want to still see in the secondary a tournament you know i think the players who could have been invited there should be brought a good deal of the chance to let the players enjoy the location the other players have success another interesting moment but just to fact these star players absent because n.h.l. is where the hockey stars are let's face it do you feel like it makes the olympic hockey they say are less attractive. honestly it's. this because of course they're very recognized that the display is not there should

be there a play should be played in that country it's all. but i still. side i think that the u.s. will be there i think there will be a soup support them and they should be very excited and be brought out to be that part of the team i know that some of the n.h.l. players like ovechkin cross me they are being very outspoken about their disappointment. not going to the olympics do you think pressure from the players could change anything here. i think in the should be to play it's up to the owners. and the chill they should listen to the players and their tours of course we don't know what's happening behind the scenes but what the the main reasons why then it still play is some of the biggest old nurse will let the players spoke for two weeks with three weeks. well it's in the money was interest

what was the number one reason so you really don't know that since you off think that that that should be come out and explain to people who saw the reasons why and it's a place out there should be there allowed to go if they want to on their own for instance like russia they can go on their own knowledge that they may be suspended should an n.h.l. players be allowed to go on their own with their own money if they want to play. now since no champs the league has the rules of the game so. this gets old stereo and. that would be too messy. too bad so he said let's see the athletes i'm going to play lympics now we should give them a chance and that was this incredible story in the eighty's i remember aware and nonprofessional american team actually won the gold medal teasing something like this could happen this time around the miracle on the ice yes i listen to my worst nights you made the wish to be out of the the. nights in your soul.

plane afford a lot of the. months but just be a part of the big family was a big thrill for me and. good that happened. next year in korea. are to say this to europe russia have strong teams you know often feel like i'm really good je suis and check some of the most old canada has a lot of players play in the europe usa as a play to europe for different so you would take a miracle for you that really already there are go to what are you saying thirty years on earth thirty something years on hockey has gotten much stronger than back then in the eighty's. it has. a lot of contrasts catching up you know maybe the baby of the soviet union were so much better canada. now that the swedes . we need the world champions to feel less winning the world championship so the

cap is not that big anymore so. i think we can call six five six contra to go with the jeff so tell me tell me because i'm a deal a townhouse an olympic contest different from the n.h.l. stanley cup playoffs i mean you played in both obviously you want someone else is there more pressure when you're doing the stanley cup game seven or when you're actually doing the olympic gold. oh the pressure is there i'm just so certain tree come true you know that's. you start your job ten months ago unable to finish just see them just on the cup this note by the way to finish the season a little because special. no matter if you win something big you know it's there just. because the war just because it's so. nice tell me what's going on through and hockey players had when you're actually on the ice rain competing for olympic

gold i mean the whole world is watching inside you're responsible for your country what is it like. to put into words but. i think you more worry about the game more about. make sure you are ready to play make sure you. know so you didn't join the movement to the olympic movement and stuff like that what's what's involved there you play for your country you play fuel up. it's a big show but. it's about the game you're about the game and you try the wood what's going on outside of hockey because off course this you know your family is watching you maybe you have some friends there but you still you focus in the family and the country a whole world is. you know it's more of joy you see of just a lifetime when something big. but. olympic team doesn't get too glued

together like the n.h.l. i mean in my opinion how do you compensate for that. it's a challenging you know for the team. who will. do the return have too much time to be together before the walkthrough upset so i think that both you said. it's very well done by the team you'll build. you try to make the right players for t.v. . let's get good chemistry in the short time so it's really important so they can for the olympic hockey team is coach and the synergy between the players i mean because you don't get to spend time together you know each other's habits you don't understand the. players know each other i think that they have played together in the past maybe the seeds of maybe the club teams you know but. i still listen to people the team is very important because you don't have the time to really

practice to get out of much time so i think the goats make good choices you know they find the right play it's the right place just. looking back what is. more important for hockey players legacy winning and b.p.'s record breaking stance or actually winning an olympic gold stanley cup ring. we're talking about the team sports i think that the winning like i mentioned the latest on the golf and the season in the olympic gold medal to kid s. t. for your country i think it's. just. a few win m.v.p. or even the scoring title but you would need to be called i think that's more than one of cities like olympic hockey is less scandalous than in the n.h.l. i mean less physical fighting. less scandals. sure the hockey changes i think. because it's much more.

of the game. and also. gave no it's not the best player there but the good players who do get a. chance a little bit you know you play with a good player so. i think you will see more skills on the ice once it's a different game because the. makes a little bit different. but he knows my question like olympic hockey is less scandalous because any child for me is like showing that you know like people five i think. it's part of the game it's called with a long long time. and it's the awards fights you know it's it's a list today. though so i don't know it's. i don't know it's about hockey and it's

still and you want to see. which team do you think will impress thanks. that's amazing and. our hockey broken son a good job you know. we keep food prices and countries we only five million people. before. russia will be the favorite in the tournament. if you just approach everybody take a short break right now when we're back we'll continue talking to you eric corey a hockey legend we'll talk more about the upcoming olympics stay with us.

wrong. just don't hold. me. to shape

our. worlds apart. to look for common ground. manufactured sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. with the famous merry go round. the world. going all middle of the room six. million. when you don't see. that if you are. dead according. to

what to me most are only ten. let alone. claiming to know. that. you speak french. what was russia gave is now quickly becoming f.b.i. gate who will investigate the investigators also does the us have a real north korea policy and the end of net neutrality and the start of the

internet apartheid. and we're back with gary koori and absolute hockey legend mr curry but we have a situation. because a lot of individuals form be able to actually join their national teams for a stand a child players they russian players. hockey is a team sport is and then i mean i wonder if it's a collective effort that is more important than skills of certain individual star hockey players what is more important. you know because i mean come on for

instance you scored so many goals in your career but your teammate was often wayne gretzky you know you were a team with things. like a sage steam forge. you need. players who can score. past the. need to play is a good defense will you do you call to. just push you since you need to get players you know you can have achieved that. there are everybody's course a little bit play defense you know it's a it's a different. view of the team and. if i go to my time. as a cheap you. know mark messier and then there's some great hockey hall of famers but we were really. good role players played for do the great job for our so the team effort is more important maybe more of a star separately from the team i think is this

a few members of course one player going to games. and win the championship it's you mr you need everybody. you mentioned russian team and russia olympic team is in a limbo because russians can't participate in the winter olympics under their own flag. will have to compete as squared of. athletes plus we have the absence of n.h.l. how do you think that will affect the whole tournaments that's not something new for the olympics absence of the n.h.l. now the russian team competing on the natural flag. i think that. there has been so much talk already but the by the time the. tribes afrique we all forget that i hopefully we can focus in the tournament on the games and i know that you know it's been a tough year for hockey. and it still is not. coming and that the russians to

a certain tough time for the tourist course you know and for their hockey but i think that both with time will heal on the we have. no less than sixty days to go for this going to be where you know we can really focus in the game and say so you're saying the ant absence of n.h.l. this strange situation with russian hockey players competing under national flag is not going to affect the whole i can adequately in your opinion i mean. time will heal doesn't mean days to go by the time that the box drops over the field and you have a chance to be a part of the six. and the south koreans have actually asked the i will see to it russian hockey team common play because they're worried about the economics of things when russian team consul out of t. shirts are sold a lot of tickets to the games are sold do you think maybe economic pressure could change something here how do you. think of the hockey world. with the

russian players their bras and speak of the hockey world family and. it's sort of be sad if the russian play is so you know. so. people out of the hockey. to really worry about. the situation the president will be all of the. right just it does it has been made but of course by the russian sports. so. just as a human being and as a hockey player i'm going to ask you questions and i just want your personal opinion on this then know that hockey players the russian hockey players have all passed the doping tests and the witness there says that the hockey players weren't part of the doping scandal anyway why force them to wear neutral colors i mean can they just if they're not part of the doping scandal can they just where their national. sports wear and compete on their own flag. well i hope the

good but just a good story why why these have to happen in the i.o.c. . has done a lot of work and you know study truly does she do a show for the right person told well. you know i say to be a tough side for them the russian sports five million of the hockey you are stupid . if it was strong but just to so i just know one thing that we do go that way. because emotionally russians are very split about this most of the athletes say they going to go to the olympics and they will compete regardless anything under natural flag possible russians are saying that doesn't make any sense because if you go to the olympics you should really just be able to raise your flag and hear your anthem play the other half of the russians are saying you know what go we should go and compete everyone knows which country you're from and

your win is our win anyway so what's your take on that's where do you think they should go compete and be proud that you are russian i would you know and enjoy the moment on the i think that's sort of for that you know to go. what has happened with this situation and so i think that. hopefully. someone asset is competing under a natural flag do you feel like it's demoralizing for him or on the contrary it can fire you up so much that you're going to stick it to the world and when. you use that that it's also the actually that's trade school for many many years many many months britain sells for herself the cue ball so i think that. they will. come up with a lot of it's trying to cheat for true hopefully for you for the erik or if that's

going to be watching t.v. watching olympic competition on the ice will it matter for you that these people aren't competing under a russian flag will you look at them differently. i look at hockey i watch it. but didn't know the game i happen to know the players who skated out there so as to be a little bit stupid story but look up the game and the results of the deep south you know the play itself. sets a story that's you could go and say but that's a true story do you think generally speaking collective punishment should exist in sports. collective punishment two things that should exist in sports in generals. like this. it's a story of what happened in sports you. know you'll see this. it's

used in all. just as hard as you can test a sportsman punished for he's not there yet and there are a lot of other athletes around the world who cheat punished and russian athletes it's the same around. do you think there's a political tends to this whole story. i really don't know would not. to me to ask the worst side of it enough knowledge to know what's going on you know of course the. media has. you it's everything you know it's a. real sop to people you know i really do in the. west but do you feel like sports can exist without politics because i just recently had a wad a crack ready set that that says quote sports being played without politics interfering and impossible dream. sports can be free i don't know if i didn't see that that the

new look what i'm doing right now you know of course the. pros goes to. this a lot of. course they watch of the big fast you know on. sports i would but i don't know. ken that's more that. now this was the first time a national team is being suspended from the olympic game over doping accusations do you feel this could change the future course of how sports are perceived in the world do you think you could make sports clean or do you think the next olympics will be stricter for everyone or is just a matter of time until more profound and less detectable substance. mission. to make sure that the sports is clean and we spend so much money you. spend so much money in studying. the situation we put the money better that way but hopefully. will.

she do. we will make it clear sports every way every sports i would get a bit better the best. character is thank you very much for the century enjoy the rest of your strength. here's what people have been saying about redacted and that it was it was actually just full on awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know a lot of the really packs a punch. yampa is the john oliver of hearts the americans do the same we are apparently better than two thousand and six and see some people you've never heard

of love redacted the night my president of the world bank though they. write me seriously send us an email. about it under them i did not cut it in. upon him going to put him at the bottom of the soonest old post but you know me a little much to be still plus. i should say not a single post. that. doesn't negotiate you know some of the money on sunday the love of money love to hold the idea that some of the. time the most vocal enough to submit become a. committee. would come in the club and then the

policeman. from some blue smoke out somehow must post something so long as it's i'm a guy. he's. counting on my blog from the one up in. the world is a finite place and yet he marries capacity to generate garbage seems infinite oh my god how are those two going to work how do you square that circle. does it feel to be a sheriff the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king as any job there is what business model helps to run

a prison now we just do it all like i said you know video visitation i don't know what comes in it well we don't have to serve them anymore is cost effective this will be on their that's known they don't give a damn if you didn't charge on that they're vastly paying to put it back into. the louisiana incarceration rate is twice as high as the u.s.n. breach what she could is behind such success. and secures it but there was a.
