 Welcome to the new and improved stable talk online today. We have Ryan Patrick and Martino I will let you tell the audience your last name here. Picarello. Picarello. We have two standout guys from our men's ice hockey team at Stevenson University. We will get into everyone here, but we have Ryan Patrick from West Virginia. Man started playing ice hockey at age 4, was already traveling to Pittsburgh by age 8, and last year he was all max second team. We have Martino who is born and raised in New Jersey, played lacrosse as well, and so ultimately focusing on ice hockey. He had a plus 10 rating last year as well as nine blocked shots. Oh, Marty! Don't pump my tires too hard, Jay. It's the little things. If you guys want to go ahead and maybe just introduce yourselves a little bit further than what Jay said, go ahead. Ryan, ask for one. Oh, I'm starting. Please do. Yeah, as Jay said, I'm from West Virginia, Morgantown to be a little more specific. That's where WVU is for the West Virginia University, for those of you who don't know. It's a good time down there, you know, proud to be from here. But yeah, I've been playing hockey pretty much all my life. I love it, and Stevenson's been a great place for me, and I think it's a great opportunity just as a program for us to, you know, put Stevenson on the map in the hockey area. I think we're going to be, we were pretty good this year. I think we're going to be good again next year. But yeah, I'm a business communications major. I want to go into PR, marketing, community relations, something like that for a sports organization. I play this sport. I might as well, you know, work in it some way, shape or form. So that's kind of me. I don't know. I don't have any fun facts or anything or I'd say something. You know, I think being from West Virginia is a fun fact enough people. Yeah, go man years. Exactly. People give us a hard time, but great. Take me home, you know. All right, awesome. Yeah, Martino Picarillo, like I said, I saved you from ways Picarillo Picarillo. Don't get confused. You can say however you like, but he Jade mentioned I grew up in Jersey, but not a lot of people know was born in Philadelphia, lived there till I was around three or four and then my mom wanted to go to the public schools there, which makes sense because schooling is way too expensive to pay for a four year old to get a good education. But some Orion played hockey most of my life. The cross was my second sport was a spoon guy. That was a good time. Good, good period of my life. And then chose, chose Stevenson for the same reasons Ryan did, you know, just build the program and be great awesome people. Nice. All right. So with recent events going on with this whole quarantine thing. What are you guys doing to stay active keeping up with your classes. Do you guys have any tips for any people? What are you guys up to? They probably deserve some tips from us, Martino. We're pretty, pretty studious guys here. Maybe we should be getting some tips. Can we get some callers? I'm kidding. Yeah, no. I mean, I don't know. I think I've been trying to work out as much as I can. I mean, I don't have many things in my house other than a treadmill and like a couple, like five pound dumbbells or something, but that's enough for me. I mean, that's a good start to the summer workout. You know, but no, I mean, I've been just working out probably two to three times a week if I can. I also work for my family's company just to kind of help out during these times. So I'm working two days a week there. And then what's that? It's a beer and liquor and wine distributor. Nice. There are many cases of beer. Yes. You better believe that I'm in the warehouse all day just moving stuff around. So it's, it's fun though. It's keeping me active. I got my family here, got my girlfriend here. So, you know, that's all good stuff. And it just, I guess, yeah, just trying to stay active. I would recommend just board games. I mean, Marty knows that we play a lot of board games and card games at the house because we're roommates. Yeah. So I just re-bought like a bunch of like Wii chords. Oh, yes. And the remote, the new remote should be here today. And I'm really excited. I want to go Nintendo switch. I need a switch. I've got my GameCube in my place and playing some of that. You're looking at YouTube. We and Nintendo, I'm jealous. I have an Xbox. That's all. I'd rather have those. Not as fun. I was going to say board game wise. I don't know if I mentioned this in the, in our first take, but battleship. It's a mind game. Yeah, it really is. And it's also kind of luck of the draw. So it's never like it's one sided. Like, I'll never forget playing like, it's called a rummy cube with my grandma when I was younger. It was like, she'd win every single time when it comes to battleship. It's not always like that. Sometimes you get a lucky win here and there. So it's nice. So as we mentioned, you guys are roommates. We were wondering, did you guys hit it off like day one, square one, or was there ever like all who is this guy? Yeah, who are you buddy? My bedroom. When I met Ryan, he was in my hometown, Philly in Philadelphia. And I met him the year before he came to, or two years before he came to Stevenson one year before I came. So it actually worked out pretty, pretty well. It was pretty funny. I met at the Philadelphia Rebels. He played, continued to play there while I moved on to college. And then when he decided to move on to college, I just kind of gave him a spot in my house. And he was just one of the best guys to have to be honest with you. I'm not going to chirp him sit here like he's, you know, tough to have around. He's not. It was actually very convenient for all of us. And plus we had an extra room that needed to be taken. So I think it was a win-win all around when he first came in the house. And the way it happened couldn't have really been any better. We've just bloomed. It's just gotten better, Marty. I mean, it's almost like a bromance in a way. If I can be quite frank with you all. No, he's Marty's right. We met before Stevenson. Great guy. He's hilarious. We've got a good dynamic, great chemistry. You know, we play a lot of Xbox together. I usually win. No surprise. But, you know, Marty is, yeah, he's great. He's awesome. Great house guy. Talk about a guy who cooked some good food. The Italian food just getting cooked up in that house all the time. It's probably a good smell. I just wish he would do his dishes a little more. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. There's no way it doesn't get done on time. It's nice, too, because Patty works for a beer, wine and liquor distributor. So, you know, it's just food for him. We're a vague. We're a vague. We don't drink in season, but we're a vague. There's good dynamics that are just transferred. It's just a great system we have so far. So, what's the first thing you guys are going to do once, like, stay at home orders are off? What's the first thing you're going to go out and do? I haven't even thought about this yet. Go around and like touch everything. State borders are gone. First thing. First thing, what would you guys do? We're going to make it into travel. So, I guess I would travel to be honest with you. Yeah, we're going to get together. Yeah, we'll get together and do something. Marty's got a Marty's got a shore house in New Jersey on the on the beautiful pieces of New Jersey. So he's we went up there at the end of the school year last year and there's only a few weeks left in the semester. I hope maybe we'll get lucky in this. This quarantine will get caught off and we'll go I'll go up to the beach you guys should come great time. I was born in Atlantic City, and then like we have a beach house on the Jersey shore as well. Wow, looks like I know we're all hanging out we should do a live podcast. Bring us back again. Jersey shore edition. I like that. Oh, yes. I like that we want to follow the cameras around. Yeah, all the way around one. Did you guys watch Jersey shore? Oh yeah. What was that club name karma karma. Yeah. Morgan down called karma. We're going to move into some teams of parlors here so this could be player coach or trainer. All right the first one. Most likely to have a career and stand up comedy. Just this past year, I'd say Justin Stelzer. Yeah, that guy, he was a senior. Yeah, he's witty, but he just I mean he also just doesn't I talk a lot he doesn't shut up. He doesn't know. He knows also he knows how to control a group of people like he'll find something that's funny and just build on that and I think that's a key thing for comedians I think he'd be just fine. Amen. I put Ryan Kenny, Ryan Kenny as a comedian. Very dry sense of humor but yeah, you get some fans. All right, this next one is it's it's a two part. All right, so we got most likely to win the lottery, but lose the winning ticket. You lost our grocery receipts this year. I was thinking along the lines of like Javen's or something, just the guy that would really get lucky and get it but then the guy who just mess it up at the end and not. Cappucci. Yes. And also he's a guy who likes to take risks. So yeah. Cappucci would lose it all in a matter of like two days between those three guys. That's definitely okay. All right, what about most likely to become a reality TV star. Ryan Patrick. What kind of reality TV, what kind of reality TV would you be in if you're just talking about Jersey Shore he could be the scenario, you know, not just ways to make home Ryan the scenario. I am the show. I am the show. I love reality TV I would mean Marty's not wrong I think I can get into it I would I would enjoy it talk some gossip maybe. I can see that. Yeah, some health magic will get going on. I don't know who knows you know, you can just give the producers exactly what they're asking for. Give them my normal life and they'll be like wow this is perfect. We can do something with this. Yeah, I like all reality TV I watched the Jersey Shore. There used to be a show based out of West Virginia called Buck Wilde. That lasted for a whopping like season. I like big brother, big brother is a good one. And there's a lot on Netflix now like, what is it love is mine. That stuff's pretty neat. What was the one we watched Marty, the one the search for media one the circle, the circle. Yeah, that's a been show. That's like, that's like kind of like this right there like all FaceTime or Skype. Yeah, yeah, literally the whole time. It's everything minus face. It's actually funny it's everything minus FaceTime you can text like send pictures like everything. Exactly so you can catfish people it's actually really curveballs everywhere, nothing to like just just nothing there. That was a house show for a little bit this year. Yeah, you can vote on people that go far it's pretty fun for people to watch. I definitely recommend it. Yeah, that's the best bromance on the team. Honestly, I'd say Cappucci and Murray, Mac Cappucci and Aaron Murray. They are D partners first off since freshman year played I think maybe 40 games together started about 90% of them. Off the ice, they live together across the hall. Like they're just, I think the definition of a bromance. You can see them just like scrubbing each other's back in a bathtub like those are the kind of guys. I'm pretty sure they have done that. They have t-shirts, they have t-shirts with their faces together on it. It's actually really funny. That's a good one, Mark. I was going to say either them or Woodsy and Moyer, Woodsy, Moyer, Gray that the tree house. I mean, Gray is usually hanging with Ham or going and playing professional hockey somewhere but you know, that house, they're tight knit. I mean, they do everything together. They're always together. I'm pretty sure Woodsy and Moyer like don't even sleep in their beds half the time. They like sleep on the couch. They used to sleep on the couches together. So they could like. That's funny. Alright, last one. Most likely to be late to your own graduation. Party. I mean, late, late in this you're thinking Chris Lee, but yeah. He's a Lee and master. Lee and master the freshman struggle they needed watches this year. We had secrets and we got, we got him a watch. Don't worry. Definitely the freshman. Lee and master. Yeah, just. Terrible, terrible time. We're going to move into some Q and a is here. So first up, we just got what is your favorite or most memorable or stand out Stevens and ice hockey victory. So that could be a blowout could have been overtime. Victory. Honestly, we can say the same exact thing on if we counted down from three right now. I know we'd think of the same game. I really hope you're right. If we say the wrong thing, we're going to sound like. Give us a count. It was from this past year. And if you mess this up, I'm pretty disappointed in you. I'll do three to one and then on go say it. Three, two, one, go. St. Norbert. Okay. Yeah. That was a good job. A little. Yeah. That was why I think. Yeah. Marty said we were ranked. Yeah, no, we were, we were, we were ranked at the time and there are typically a powerhouse team and division three. They started off a little rocky this year, but they ended up finishing pretty strong. So I mean, that was a huge win for us, a huge win for the program kind of put us on the map really to start things this year. But it also just one of those games was back and forth like it was. I don't think there was ever more than like a one or two goal lead at any point and I think the game finished what like six five. Like, a lot of scoring a lot of good, like just fast paced hockey and it was fun. I mean, I got a buddy on that team from prep school that I used to play with. He actually used to be my line made at prep school. So like, I had a really good buddy on the team and it was fun playing against him. So all in all that game is just. Yeah, it was just, it was crazy. I mean, you're out there and just you can feel the emotion, the speed. That's the best part about hockey is it's all just reaction and instinctual. So it's, there's just like you get into that moment and it's just like you go, go, go and you know when you're in a game because it's fast and it's like you just you don't have time you're just so locked in. Yeah, he hit the nail on the head. That's exactly right. It's exactly what felt just fast. So that was definitely the game for me for us. What about your guys is worse ice hockey injury. Marty's got probably a lot to talk about. I'll let him go first one. They're all terrible. As long as you stop you from playing the game you love there's no good injuries. Yeah. Yeah, sadly. Worst one though, when I got here, I had the two broken ribs my freshman year, which if anyone's had broken ribs, bruised ribs. No, I had bruised, I had bruised ribs and like I can imagine broken ones like partially ruptured my spleen. Oh, yeah, I shouldn't be the spleen itself is painful. Yeah, that's terrible. But what happened to you? It was like right at the Christmas markets actually funny. It was December 7th and we had our French trip. We went to the French Alps my freshman year December 12 December 13 so about five, six days later. And I broke them and I was like, let's get x-rays. I thought it was my shoulder at the time. Did you check or fall? Yeah, so that's how it happened. So I got ripped basically. I got buried just absolutely torched so I was trying to get to the red line and get the puck in. And one of their best or biggest guys kind of came up to me from Nazareth and laid me out in Nazareth, which is seven hours away in Rochester, New York. So after the game I'm sitting there on the bus for seven hours on this terrible coach bus and that's just a story in itself. But anyway, I actually read my shoulder because that's what we thought it was. It wasn't my shoulder. No injuries. So he just said it was probably a contusion and I could go to France and I could play in France. I ended up playing games in France and re-hurt my ribs even worse, but we didn't know it was my ribs still. So he's like rolling me out digging into my sides, like trying to get these contusion knots out. In the meantime, I just have broken ribs for the past like three, four weeks and no one really knew. And it was kind of funny when I found out I was just like, this is ridiculous. This is kind of crazy that I won't do all this stuff to find out that they're broken like weeks later, almost a month. Yeah, that was terrible. I was fine the first month of my life. Yeah. Yeah, Marty, you've had some bad luck, man. I mean, more power to you for fighting through because you always come back. But I've been pretty lucky. I don't, you know, knock on wood here, but I haven't really had sustained bad injuries. I think just the worst or honestly, concussions. I've had a few concussions throughout the years now. And those just suck because you just they're really up in the air. It's hard to tell like when you're back to normal. And sometimes it doesn't seem like anything's wrong and you just want to play and those are frustrating, but I think it's because I'm shorter. And then most guys on the ice. So I get a lot of hits like near the head. Also, I get a lot of cuts on my face because of it. So I've had, I think I've had like, upwards of like 50 to like 70 stitches in my face. Like playing hockey just because everyone hits everyone's shoulders hit me and like the cage or in the face. So my cage is like constantly smacking against my face or just like the, the like pressure from the hit is just causing like, you know, cuts to happen. So it sucks being short sometimes pretty much. But also I, you know what, I'm sure it is what it is. Embrace it. All right, so you guys just won the 2021 national championship and you're on the ox. What are you putting on the first thing you get in the locker room. I heard in the USA. Great choice. Tycoon future. Very, very two different vibes. He's very hood. Hey, yeah, you got to listen to the lyrics in that song. There's a reason I picked it. He's a tie. He's a tycoon. That's why they hate him. So if you win it all, you're at the top. Everyone doesn't like you. So I'm playing that out to that song. Yeah. All right, last Q&A. What's your favorite sports movie? miracle doesn't have to be like a serious movie. No. It's called the comeback. It's the comeback. I think it's so funny, just based off this guy named Lambo fields. Just a term, which it's like a check it out for those who like to watch spoofs. It's pretty funny to come back. All right, we're going to move into some. What do you say? Go ahead. We're going to move into some trivia here from ice hockey and Stevenson trivia here. If we can stump you guys this time. Where was the first indoor ice hockey made. And you're like rank, rank main US. Anywhere. North America. That's a hint that I answered with that. I would say the capital hockey like Toronto, Ontario, in that province. I mean, that seems like the right answer, but I feel like this is just wild trivia. Maybe it was Maryland. Was it the right was it the right to sound sports flex. That wasn't a trick question. It was Montreal. Montreal. So this is a question about your guys head coach. How many winning seasons out of 11. This coach dolls have in his career of coaching. Winning seasons, meaning just about 500. Right. Yeah. Yes. And so this includes his time at Stevenson and his time at Newman Newman. He may have not even had one losing season at Newman and I know we had one that I think just last year. So I'll say two. So nine out of 11. Yeah, I was going to say he's probably at eight out of 11. I'll say nine. Eight. You guys are close. He has, he has to, he has to under Stevenson and six out of seven at Newman. My freshman year. Yeah. We were like, I was that year. It was so close. I think we're right on the bubble, which is like, yeah, I think both of them were 0.46 I think. Yeah, yeah, right around there. Yeah. All right. 2019 2020 Stevenson ice hockey top three and assist. Brenda me. There's actually a tie for third so you technically need for here because you're you're right so far. It's probably master probably master and I would say either Murray or Ripley. Murray Murray. Yeah. Nice job. It's funny because that's his entire power play unit. The guys who had the most points on the team that was all on your unit because we had such a good power play it was deadly. We had a, we were, it was fun this year. I mean, I'm a passer at heart. So I take pride in that. That's, that's my game playmaker. If you look at one more stat for the most goals, the guy that was on the other side of the rink had the most goals. Yeah. I just passed on the puck. It was a good time. Nice part about playing with two guys that can score. This one, this one will see if Ryan can get, if Marty can get this, I'll be impressed. Three names who aren't from West Virginia and one who is I'm going to give you guys four names, one of them, one of the people are from West Virginia and three aren't so see if you guys figure out which one's not the first one's Hulk Hogan. Steve Harvey, Chris Brown and Adam Sandler. Which one is from West Virginia. Yeah. I know. I know. I hit us. We've got a New Jersey one next. Okay. I think it's, I think Steve Harvey is from West Virginia. I was going to say Steve. Yeah. Nice job. That's what I thought. You got your state facts, right? I got to represent. All right, Martino. All right. So there, I did some research. There's, I don't remember the exact number, maybe about 12 former or current NHL guys from New Jersey. I could be way off on that number. But James Van Riemstike specifically leads all New Jersey born NHL players in what category, penalty minutes, games played or game winning goals. I'd say game winning goals. Yes. Yeah. He had the most game winning goals and most penalty power play goals out of any New Jersey born player. Absolutely. Yeah. He's just different. I grew up a Flyers fan with my dad. I don't watch the hockey too much anymore, but I used to watch like a lot of Flyers games with my dad and Van Riemstike and Danny Brea with my guys. Dude, Danny. My, my grandmother got me a Danny Brea jersey like the Christmas before they traded him to like, I think the Maple Leafs maybe like literally the very, his very last year in Philly I got like a jersey and then I was like, come on. I think Marty and I both have relationships in some way with Brea. I actually played with his, his middle child for about a year in Philadelphia, my second year there for the Rebels and I actually, my billet house was like 10 minutes down the road from his house. So I would hang out at his place all the time. So I actually got to like, pretty cool experience getting to like talk to Danny Brea, just like in his home, like, see how like he just goes about his days sometimes just like casually like chat. That was pretty fun. I mean, his son Carson, like, great, great kid. He's awesome. I mean, I missed some shout out to you Carson when you see this when we go bottle. But yeah, I got, I got lucky fortunate enough to be able to meet Danny Brea though and have some conversations with him. He also came out on the ice. So that's a few times gave us some pointers. So I think Marty's got a relationship with him too. It's pretty similar. Yeah, I was pretty lucky to when I was around 11 years old him and his son, my son and himself. We were partners. So it was actually really cool. I went over there one time I'll never forget I was in his basement. We're playing mini hockey and I went to go use the bathroom and I couldn't get back to where we're playing mini hockey out. I got lost. There's just doors after doors after hallways in his basement. It's just, it's amazing. Is he still in Haddonfield, Brian? That's where it was. Yeah, I don't know if it's still there. We probably shouldn't give out Danny Brea's info though, but anyway. Haddonfield, Kentucky. Yeah. You're gonna look it up. We're gonna move into our last two things here. The first just like, you guys have been through a lot hockey wise, life wise. I mean, at our age, you kind of see a lot and like, what advice would you give to current high school ice hockey players? So maybe like juniors and seniors playing ice hockey in high school. What have you learned that you might tell them that you wish you knew a couple years ago? You got something? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, that's tough some advice because I still like think about myself. I haven't mastered anything by far. I mean, I'd love to play professional hockey someday. And I'm working. It could be like what route they should go for recruiting, what you wish you would have picked school wise early on. I could give my two sons. Yeah, I think I was just, I was actually talking to this about my, or with this about my dad the other day and I was saying to him like, it's funny because I moved away from home. I know a lot of guys moved away from home at a young age and then I know some guys that never moved away at all and still make it to the NHL. You know what I said? James Van Riems, I grew up in Jersey until he was 18 and then got drafted, right? Which is pretty, pretty unreal. So I guess my advice is that there is no right path. There is no one way to do things. Whatever the best fit is for that player for yourself. Just follow that path. Don't ever look at a guy and say, oh, well he did that and then think that you're the same player as him. It's not the same. Sometimes you need more development. So stay home. Sometimes you are developed and you need to be seen. So move away. Just figure out what's good for you and go from there. That's really good advice. I mean, that's what's so unique about hockey. And I think what makes it such a good sport is just the fact that it's different from all your other big name sports like football, basketball, soccer, baseball, and how you go through like working to get there. You know, most people just go middle school, high school, like college, whereas hockey, like Marty said, there's so many different routes you could go. I mean, we've had ourselves, the guys on our team. I mean, you talked to most guys on our team. I think everyone has a different story. So I think it's important to understand that everyone develops at different times. You know, there's guys that don't really like come into their own until they're almost in college guys that are unbelievable when they're, you know, 16 years old. So I think people need to recognize that it's a process and it takes time, but that doesn't mean you need to get like frustrated with it and just continue to put in the work and eventually things will work out. I think if you're good enough, you'll get seen like it is what it is like you if you have what it takes you'll get noticed. And that's not to like deter anyone from trying hard, but you know what I mean, like, I think you if you just keep working at it, you'll get seen. And just like make it a passion here is just like anything if you want to be good at it, you just got to put in the time. Yeah, I like all that advice. All right, to wrap things up. We know we all know this is around two of this, but Jay and I both liked the story that Ryan told last time of the capture the flag that the team did and then we thought that it kind of just like kind of explained the men's ice hockey team to like a hole. So if you want to tell everyone that story, like, I think that'd be a good idea. Yeah, yeah. You want me to just go right into it right now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so we like, that's just one thing that we did last lot and we didn't get to do it this season, because of obviously the coronavirus issue, hence why we're doing this podcast, all from different places right now. Yeah, we last year, we, at the end of this year, we got the whole team together and we decided to split up and play capture the flag across the entire campus. And that was the best part about it is it was across the entire campus that we had a flag and caves and a flag at like the horse. On North Campus, the artistic horse that sits there, so you had a horse there, I mean, a flag there and a flag at caves, so you had the bridge. For everyone at home, that's at least a lap around the track away from each other, definitely probably more. You have the bridge too. Yeah. I don't know how long the bridge is, but. Well, anyway, yeah, anyways, we put up into two teams and I mean, we, it was awesome, we ran all over, like we were like acting like we had people probably thought we were so childish and immature. I mean, we had, because you had guys like garden the flags at these different locations, what, and this is midday like on like a Tuesday or something when we have like practice during the season so none of us had classes. So, meanwhile, you got guys like trying to sneak around in North, like running through the hallways there like kids are going to class and we're just like running through the hallways scouting out like trying not to get tagged and put in jail. You got guys like in rides with kids leaving like North Campus so that they don't have to run across the bridge to cave they're getting north to like the main campus. Like, every, it was just, I mean, it was creative and everyone's mindsets were obviously like, this is go time. And it was so intense. I mean, we're running guys down everywhere. You got people like sneaking up behind trees and like telling kids like walk into class like, hey, like, keep it quiet. Don't let anyone know I'm here like get out of my way or get out of my way like pushing people out of the way. I mean, it was electric. So we're definitely going to do that again. So look out for the men's ice hockey team on campus. I know next time you guys do it so we can join in. Yes, definitely. We'll strap a GoPro to one of you guys. Yeah, that would be awesome. Yes, that would be great. So that was strap the GoPro to the flag. Yes, we're going to do it again. It's already planned. It's going to happen might even do it at the beginning of this year when we get all the new guys in to break up, make some friends that way. That would be really cool content. Yeah, so maybe we'll have to you guys will stay in touch with you guys. I mean, I hope you guys bring us back for a third round. I mean, I think Marty. Hopefully we won't have to and this works out. Yeah, the summer beach episode. Look at this we already got good content. We could be your like hallmark guests that just. Maybe, maybe when we interview other guests, you guys can be our Collins. Yeah. You guys, you guys are calling the q amp a question of your own. Yeah, I like that. Well, thanks for taking time out of your day. Thank you. Brian and Marty. Thank you guys again.
