1
00:00:26,062 --> 00:00:27,652
So I did it again.

2
00:00:27,652 --> 00:00:32,232
I think I hit my wrong intro button after
I went through all this thing last time

3
00:00:32,232 --> 00:00:34,222
about like I made a new intro.

4
00:00:34,482 --> 00:00:35,222
You know what?

5
00:00:35,222 --> 00:00:35,874
Fuck it.

6
00:00:35,874 --> 00:00:41,554
We talked about it, we fixed it, and now
you've a great disservice to us all.

7
00:00:41,742 --> 00:00:43,502
You're all sitting through this.

8
00:00:43,502 --> 00:00:44,682
You're welcome.

9
00:00:45,262 --> 00:00:46,362
OK, we're back.

10
00:00:46,362 --> 00:00:47,182
We're back.

11
00:00:47,182 --> 00:00:48,782
And it's been a bit of time.

12
00:00:48,782 --> 00:00:49,172
I know.

13
00:00:49,172 --> 00:00:50,322
I apologize.

14
00:00:50,322 --> 00:00:56,362
Started working again and, you know,
things pick up in the busy world.

15
00:00:56,362 --> 00:01:01,982
And as somebody pointed out on on Twitter,
we are the most inconsistent podcast.

16
00:01:02,142 --> 00:01:05,992
And, you know, there's other ones that
have too many ads and we're the ones that

17
00:01:05,992 --> 00:01:06,332
don't.

18
00:01:06,332 --> 00:01:08,046
And they miss us because we don't have
ads.

19
00:01:08,046 --> 00:01:11,986
See, the thing with not having ads is that
means it's not a job for us.

20
00:01:11,986 --> 00:01:16,636
So we have to do other things to to make
money to pay rent and all that.

21
00:01:16,636 --> 00:01:22,556
So this is more like a very, very overly
dedicated hobby, like being a Leafs fan is

22
00:01:22,556 --> 00:01:23,330
now.

23
00:01:23,362 --> 00:01:25,036
At least we're number one at something.

24
00:01:25,036 --> 00:01:25,756
Exactly.

25
00:01:25,756 --> 00:01:27,506
Number one most inconsistent.

26
00:01:27,506 --> 00:01:28,646
But you know what?

27
00:01:28,646 --> 00:01:31,486
The fact that people are waiting for it,
we love you for it.

28
00:01:31,486 --> 00:01:32,386
Thanks.

29
00:01:32,386 --> 00:01:33,926
So sorry.

30
00:01:33,926 --> 00:01:35,566
But life.

31
00:01:35,566 --> 00:01:39,584
Also, some of the games were at 10 o
'clock, like two of them in a row.

32
00:01:39,738 --> 00:01:41,028
it's hard on the west coast wing.

33
00:01:41,028 --> 00:01:43,708
I think like towards the end of the season
we're going to be a lot more consistent,

34
00:01:43,708 --> 00:01:45,238
especially going into the playoffs.

35
00:01:45,238 --> 00:01:46,852
It'll be very irregular.

36
00:01:47,086 --> 00:01:50,416
Yeah, and I missed the playoffs like our
first year doing this and I still will

37
00:01:50,416 --> 00:01:51,406
never get over that.

38
00:01:51,406 --> 00:01:55,866
I had to do one from like work on my
headphones after they lost.

39
00:01:55,866 --> 00:01:57,686
It was the worst.

40
00:01:57,886 --> 00:01:58,506
Yeah.

41
00:01:58,506 --> 00:02:01,546
Anyway, Roscoe, Suddy and Beener here.

42
00:02:01,606 --> 00:02:06,106
And it's the end of the winning streak,
unfortunately, but didn't get to cover all

43
00:02:06,106 --> 00:02:08,886
the games in the middle of it and the
games that Morgan Riley.

44
00:02:08,886 --> 00:02:11,486
But hey, some good things happened.

45
00:02:11,566 --> 00:02:16,142
Timothy Lilligan proved me wrong, which I
will eat like I was, you know.

46
00:02:16,142 --> 00:02:21,992
kind of on him the last couple episodes
before Riley got suspended and he really

47
00:02:21,992 --> 00:02:22,532
stepped up.

48
00:02:22,532 --> 00:02:26,042
So that was kind of the opportunity that
he needed.

49
00:02:26,142 --> 00:02:28,592
Like I said, those don't come off on this
team.

50
00:02:28,592 --> 00:02:33,102
So your top defender getting suspended is
going to open that slot up and good for

51
00:02:33,102 --> 00:02:33,744
him.

52
00:02:35,854 --> 00:02:37,174
But where'd he go?

53
00:02:38,466 --> 00:02:41,246
I don't know, you really really missed him
tonight.

54
00:02:41,246 --> 00:02:45,806
Just having like Riley play with Brody and
all the domino effect of him not being

55
00:02:45,806 --> 00:02:46,786
there.

56
00:02:47,266 --> 00:02:49,838
His absence was noticeable, that's for
sure.

57
00:02:49,838 --> 00:02:51,078
For sure.

58
00:02:51,418 --> 00:02:53,488
One quick little trivia thing before we
get in.

59
00:02:53,488 --> 00:02:56,258
There were a lot of hat tricks over this
last little streak.

60
00:02:56,258 --> 00:03:00,518
In the month of February alone, there have
been four.

61
00:03:00,518 --> 00:03:04,658
To bring the Leafs total on the year to
five?

62
00:03:04,838 --> 00:03:07,058
Total on the season to, what's that?

63
00:03:07,058 --> 00:03:08,098
Six, I think?

64
00:03:08,098 --> 00:03:10,838
Seven, eight, nine.

65
00:03:11,978 --> 00:03:15,038
Yeah, so October 11th, Matthews.

66
00:03:15,038 --> 00:03:17,438
October 14th, Matthews.

67
00:03:17,438 --> 00:03:18,862
November 4th, Matthews.

68
00:03:18,862 --> 00:03:23,782
November 30th, Marner, and then Matthews,
McMahon, Matthews, Matthews, Bertuzzi.

69
00:03:23,782 --> 00:03:25,202
That's crazy.

70
00:03:26,882 --> 00:03:32,202
Just I know it's hard for me to search
through this by like season, so I'm just

71
00:03:32,202 --> 00:03:33,950
doing it by year.

72
00:03:33,950 --> 00:03:37,500
has done alone, like I think Lemieux
hasn't done it since what, 95 or something

73
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:37,850
like that?

74
00:03:37,850 --> 00:03:39,342
Like it's been a really long time.

75
00:03:39,342 --> 00:03:41,172
Yeah, he's got one to the four and six.

76
00:03:41,172 --> 00:03:42,942
That's fucking crazy.

77
00:03:43,022 --> 00:03:46,862
So I just did a quick calculation just by
year again, not by season.

78
00:03:47,542 --> 00:03:54,642
The Leafs have they average three point
two hat tricks per calendar year.

79
00:03:54,922 --> 00:04:00,722
When do you think the last time they had
this many was?

80
00:04:02,946 --> 00:04:03,848
Never.

81
00:04:03,950 --> 00:04:10,680
So the crazy thing is the last two years,
this is this has been the pace like since

82
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,670
they've had Matthews on the team and in
his prime here, I'm looking twenty twenty

83
00:04:15,670 --> 00:04:20,580
two one, two, three, four, five, six,
twenty twenty three, one, two, three,

84
00:04:20,580 --> 00:04:24,570
four, five, six, twenty twenty four, one,
two, three, four, five already.

85
00:04:24,570 --> 00:04:27,280
That hasn't happened since the 80s.

86
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:30,030
If you scroll back through this, this is
insane.

87
00:04:30,030 --> 00:04:32,798
This is not just Matthews, but the the.

88
00:04:33,064 --> 00:04:37,704
Insane amount of scoring that is coming
from all of these guys is it's crazy But

89
00:04:37,704 --> 00:04:42,086
yeah, the fact that Matthews is like 50 %
of these is otherworldly

90
00:04:43,841 --> 00:04:48,821
So yeah, he's just proving that we're so
lucky to have him, right?

91
00:04:48,821 --> 00:04:53,801
And nobody can be happy with that.

92
00:04:53,961 --> 00:04:56,521
They joke about it on SiriusXM all the
time.

93
00:04:56,521 --> 00:04:59,141
I've said many times, I listen to them all
the time.

94
00:04:59,221 --> 00:05:02,681
And they'll be like, you know, you have a
guy scoring on a 70 -goal pace and

95
00:05:02,681 --> 00:05:06,641
Matthew's doing historic things and people
are complaining about the fourth line.

96
00:05:07,301 --> 00:05:10,501
Because that's the Leaf fans, that's what
we do, right?

97
00:05:11,161 --> 00:05:13,695
And the funnier part is, is he didn't...

98
00:05:13,695 --> 00:05:16,985
do this the first handful of seasons that
he played.

99
00:05:16,985 --> 00:05:20,225
Like yeah, he scored a whole whack of
goals and he's always been on a great

100
00:05:20,225 --> 00:05:24,575
pace, but it he got four in his first game
and he didn't get a second hat trick I

101
00:05:24,575 --> 00:05:26,813
think until his what third or fourth
season?

102
00:05:27,074 --> 00:05:28,800
I think you're right on that, yeah.

103
00:05:29,198 --> 00:05:38,278
Yeah, I'm looking 2016 Matthews had the
four goal game and then the next one is

104
00:05:38,278 --> 00:05:39,622
2020.

105
00:05:40,833 --> 00:05:42,082
Yeah, four years.

106
00:05:42,082 --> 00:05:43,562
Like the tools are always there, right?

107
00:05:43,562 --> 00:05:48,602
Cause he can take away a puck and just
turn the plate on a dime and his shot,

108
00:05:48,842 --> 00:05:50,452
he's mastered it right now.

109
00:05:50,452 --> 00:05:54,082
So anytime he comes across that blue line,
he has a great chance of scoring.

110
00:05:54,082 --> 00:05:56,686
Like his shooting percentage is off the
charts right now.

111
00:05:56,686 --> 00:06:01,746
Yeah, the fact that he has no empty net
goals this year, like the effortless NIS

112
00:06:01,746 --> 00:06:03,686
with that he's.

113
00:06:04,306 --> 00:06:09,686
That's also crazy, like if those had gone
in, the dude would easily be hitting 70.

114
00:06:09,686 --> 00:06:14,226
But no, just how effortlessly it looks
every time he shoots this, like on this

115
00:06:14,226 --> 00:06:17,806
stretch where he's been getting, you know,
Patrick after Patrick, it's it's just like

116
00:06:17,806 --> 00:06:21,516
the guy looks at the net and fires it and
you think, oh, this is just going to, you

117
00:06:21,516 --> 00:06:23,816
know, this is a soft one of the pads, but
it goes in.

118
00:06:23,816 --> 00:06:26,126
It's like, how did you see that one little
hole?

119
00:06:26,126 --> 00:06:30,486
And this spot that he's found in the back
corner along the goal line, are you

120
00:06:30,486 --> 00:06:30,806
joking?

121
00:06:30,806 --> 00:06:32,726
It's like an almost impossible angle.

122
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:34,804
And he's made it like consistent.

123
00:06:35,521 --> 00:06:43,271
So the beauty about that is we all know
NHL players are competitive and as soon as

124
00:06:43,271 --> 00:06:47,901
multiple people start saying, oh, this is
the only guy that can do this or this is

125
00:06:47,901 --> 00:06:54,011
the only guy that can do that, they all
get uber competitive and uber focused on

126
00:06:54,011 --> 00:06:56,101
trying to prove everybody wrong, right?

127
00:06:56,101 --> 00:07:00,021
Like early in his career, Crosby was
labeled as, oh, he can't win a face off.

128
00:07:00,021 --> 00:07:00,611
What does he do?

129
00:07:00,611 --> 00:07:03,361
He goes and becomes one of the best face
off men ever.

130
00:07:03,361 --> 00:07:05,131
They say, oh, he can't score all the
goals.

131
00:07:05,131 --> 00:07:08,181
He goes out and scores 51 goals and wins
the rocket Richard.

132
00:07:08,821 --> 00:07:10,721
Like McDavid last year.

133
00:07:10,721 --> 00:07:12,291
Oh, he, Matthews is the best goal scorer.

134
00:07:12,291 --> 00:07:13,431
McDavid will never score that.

135
00:07:13,431 --> 00:07:15,121
Goes out and score 64.

136
00:07:15,121 --> 00:07:17,781
Like these players have a history of doing
that.

137
00:07:17,781 --> 00:07:23,161
And yeah, the only player you saw score
from basically the goal line on that type

138
00:07:23,161 --> 00:07:26,921
of angle over the last three, four or five
years is dry cycle.

139
00:07:27,601 --> 00:07:30,871
And then now all of a sudden, oh,
Matthews, oh, you'd think that he's the

140
00:07:30,871 --> 00:07:31,791
only one that can do it here.

141
00:07:31,791 --> 00:07:33,417
I'll just do it for fun.

142
00:07:33,619 --> 00:07:34,238
Like...

143
00:07:34,238 --> 00:07:36,268
you don't think he cares that he wants to
be the best?

144
00:07:36,268 --> 00:07:37,438
Look at the corner of his glove.

145
00:07:37,438 --> 00:07:38,977
It says 80 on it.

146
00:07:38,977 --> 00:07:43,627
And like, I don't know if you guys caught
it, I noticed it a couple weeks ago and

147
00:07:43,627 --> 00:07:46,737
then he got on this pace and it's just
absolutely hilarious.

148
00:07:46,737 --> 00:07:51,797
That Sportsnet commercial where, you know,
oh, score 40, score 50, and then Matthews

149
00:07:51,797 --> 00:07:54,097
is laughing, come on guys, that's all.

150
00:07:54,177 --> 00:07:55,197
Like.

151
00:07:56,322 --> 00:07:59,082
And like he might have been doing this
earlier in his career too, but like he's

152
00:07:59,082 --> 00:08:02,392
had wrist issues, I think really, really
hampered his shooting ability.

153
00:08:02,392 --> 00:08:06,752
And this seems like the first year in
quite a while where he's fully healthy and

154
00:08:06,752 --> 00:08:10,342
you can actually see what he can do with,
you know, a hundred percent health.

155
00:08:10,414 --> 00:08:14,764
Yeah, it's like the power was always
there, but now it's like dead accurate

156
00:08:14,764 --> 00:08:18,094
that never was not never was before.

157
00:08:18,714 --> 00:08:23,454
Yeah, but it's just the release is
something else from the last couple of

158
00:08:23,454 --> 00:08:24,117
seasons.

159
00:08:24,117 --> 00:08:30,237
and if you do the math, if you break down
per season, I messaged this in our group a

160
00:08:30,237 --> 00:08:35,807
couple days ago, per season up to it's
like the 560 game mark or something like

161
00:08:35,807 --> 00:08:40,887
that between Matthews and Ovechkin, and
you break it down goals per game, Matthews

162
00:08:40,887 --> 00:08:46,401
is scoring at like a 13 goals per 82 games
higher clip than Ovechkin did.

163
00:08:47,448 --> 00:08:49,438
Oh my God, that's crazy.

164
00:08:49,438 --> 00:08:53,438
Like, where is he gonna be 10 years from
now if he stays healthy is the question.

165
00:08:53,438 --> 00:08:56,156
Like, the numbers are just, yeah.

166
00:08:56,156 --> 00:09:01,366
potential is there to go down top three,
but even maybe the best school score that

167
00:09:01,366 --> 00:09:02,305
we'll ever see.

168
00:09:02,305 --> 00:09:04,661
And the majority of them are five on five.

169
00:09:05,186 --> 00:09:06,574
That's the big thing too.

170
00:09:06,574 --> 00:09:09,754
Yeah, again, no empty netters this year is
crazy.

171
00:09:10,154 --> 00:09:15,004
How do you have that many ahead of the
person in second place and none of them

172
00:09:15,004 --> 00:09:16,374
are on an open net?

173
00:09:16,706 --> 00:09:20,086
He is so valuable to our team and like a
little segue.

174
00:09:20,086 --> 00:09:24,584
He was maybe a tiny bit absent tonight and
look what happened.

175
00:09:24,974 --> 00:09:29,184
Yeah, and just before we get to that, what
do we think, just talking about greats, is

176
00:09:29,184 --> 00:09:34,174
more likely this season Matthews hitting
70 or McDavid hitting 140 assists, which

177
00:09:34,174 --> 00:09:35,686
he's currently on pace for.

178
00:09:36,705 --> 00:09:38,585
Yeah, yes and yes.

179
00:09:38,585 --> 00:09:40,708
Like, there's...

180
00:09:40,708 --> 00:09:42,278
I think they both do it.

181
00:09:42,278 --> 00:09:43,188
You think both could happen?

182
00:09:43,188 --> 00:09:45,078
I mean, that's fair.

183
00:09:45,427 --> 00:09:48,957
McDavid looked at the lead Matthews had in
goals and said, shit, I'm not going to

184
00:09:48,957 --> 00:09:49,797
catch him there.

185
00:09:49,797 --> 00:09:53,401
OK, that's hit 100 assists because only
three other players have done it.

186
00:09:53,814 --> 00:09:56,784
he's like, I'm just going to stop shooting
because all I care about is assists right

187
00:09:56,784 --> 00:09:56,954
now.

188
00:09:56,954 --> 00:10:00,064
Like the way that they're both taking it
in stride, I think is really great for the

189
00:10:00,064 --> 00:10:00,654
game.

190
00:10:00,654 --> 00:10:06,729
Yeah, that honestly was one of the better,
how do I put this?

191
00:10:06,729 --> 00:10:07,466
soundbites?

192
00:10:07,466 --> 00:10:08,186
robotic, right?

193
00:10:08,186 --> 00:10:10,056
Like he was actually, he had a personality
there.

194
00:10:10,056 --> 00:10:11,136
He was...

195
00:10:11,136 --> 00:10:11,466
laughing.

196
00:10:11,466 --> 00:10:12,908
Like it was really good.

197
00:10:12,908 --> 00:10:16,088
was something that I'd see from Matthews,
like it's not, you know, over the top,

198
00:10:16,088 --> 00:10:19,318
like he's joking with him, but the sarcasm
and like making a joke about hockey

199
00:10:19,318 --> 00:10:21,518
because that's the only thing he can joke
about.

200
00:10:21,518 --> 00:10:25,198
But it was like he was trying to have fun
and that's more than we've seen out of him

201
00:10:25,198 --> 00:10:26,342
really ever.

202
00:10:27,330 --> 00:10:28,910
Yeah, 100%.

203
00:10:28,910 --> 00:10:32,270
And fuck, the guys got 21 goals this
season.

204
00:10:32,270 --> 00:10:33,476
That's crazy.

205
00:10:33,536 --> 00:10:34,046
What did I see?

206
00:10:34,046 --> 00:10:39,546
It was like 850 something days until he
can play for the Leafs.

207
00:10:40,326 --> 00:10:42,446
The countdown is on.

208
00:10:42,446 --> 00:10:44,906
Him and Matthews are just going to be
unreal.

209
00:10:45,026 --> 00:10:48,926
McDavid's going to have like 200 assists
and Matthews might have 110 goals.

210
00:10:49,434 --> 00:10:57,234
Yeah, yeah, honestly, I hope that Matthews
keeps this pace up and gets at least one

211
00:10:57,234 --> 00:10:58,294
more hat trick this season.

212
00:10:58,294 --> 00:11:02,912
Like, it's just to hit 70 in this era
would be something else.

213
00:11:02,912 --> 00:11:05,992
to cap it off, his defensive play is
just...

214
00:11:05,992 --> 00:11:08,042
That's also taken a huge step up this
year.

215
00:11:08,042 --> 00:11:10,922
His takeaway numbers are incredible.

216
00:11:11,202 --> 00:11:13,122
He's killing penalties right now.

217
00:11:13,122 --> 00:11:17,242
What he's doing on the defensive end is
not quite as impressive as the offensive

218
00:11:17,242 --> 00:11:23,265
end, but both of them together, he's
definitely leveled up this year.

219
00:11:23,265 --> 00:11:28,825
So you just reminded me of a tweet that I
shared yesterday.

220
00:11:30,065 --> 00:11:34,065
Like, as much as we like Matthews, the
heart is more than goals.

221
00:11:34,065 --> 00:11:36,605
Matthews has 52, McKinnon has 34.

222
00:11:36,905 --> 00:11:42,455
To be considered as a good centerman, as
McKinnon, hockey fans look at things like

223
00:11:42,455 --> 00:11:43,445
giveaways.

224
00:11:43,445 --> 00:11:46,425
Matthews only has 34 giveaways this year.

225
00:11:46,445 --> 00:11:49,645
McKinnon's given the puck away 58 times.

226
00:11:50,345 --> 00:11:53,359
Takeaways, Matthews has 60 takeaways.

227
00:11:53,759 --> 00:11:55,369
McKinnon has 29.

228
00:11:55,809 --> 00:11:56,670
Hits!

229
00:11:56,670 --> 00:11:58,610
because the first two were both 34.

230
00:11:58,610 --> 00:12:01,506
And that was gonna be a crazy stat if you
kept going there.

231
00:12:01,506 --> 00:12:02,933
discrepancy is insane.

232
00:12:02,933 --> 00:12:07,513
Hits, Matthews at 51, McKinnon's at 40.

233
00:12:07,873 --> 00:12:11,913
Blocks, Matthews at 63, McKinnon's at 52.

234
00:12:12,873 --> 00:12:16,613
And Face -offs, Matthews at 53%,
McKinnon's at 46.

235
00:12:17,013 --> 00:12:17,622
So for...

236
00:12:17,622 --> 00:12:21,305
read Twitter, Matthews is a one
dimensional player, so you know.

237
00:12:21,305 --> 00:12:22,345
definitely.

238
00:12:24,578 --> 00:12:28,178
Finish your point, because those stats are
absolutely crazy.

239
00:12:28,178 --> 00:12:32,298
How well -rounded his game is is...

240
00:12:32,298 --> 00:12:36,618
You can't say he's the best player in
League, because McDavid is just

241
00:12:36,618 --> 00:12:39,656
otherworldly, but he is easily number two,
I think.

242
00:12:40,705 --> 00:12:44,191
I think there's an argument that he's the
best all -around player in the league.

243
00:12:46,210 --> 00:12:48,362
With those stats, you can definitely argue
it.

244
00:12:48,362 --> 00:12:50,122
so hard to compare the two of them.

245
00:12:50,122 --> 00:12:51,982
It's like Crosby and Ovechkin, I think.

246
00:12:51,982 --> 00:12:54,792
It's just gonna be forever 1A and 1B.

247
00:12:54,792 --> 00:12:56,816
Like, depends on who you talk to.

248
00:12:56,816 --> 00:13:01,220
I think Crosby is infinitely better than
Ovechkin as a hockey player.

249
00:13:02,330 --> 00:13:07,640
Yeah, but I think I guess what I mean is
like the way that you can't compare them,

250
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,610
they're just kind of both the greatest in
their own way.

251
00:13:11,610 --> 00:13:16,380
Like I feel like McDavid and Matthews are
just always going to both be it's going to

252
00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:18,490
be an argument forever of who's better.

253
00:13:18,490 --> 00:13:20,430
And I think they're both right.

254
00:13:20,430 --> 00:13:21,890
Like it depends on the season.

255
00:13:21,890 --> 00:13:25,420
It depends on, you know, whether their
team is better or not.

256
00:13:25,420 --> 00:13:26,900
Like it's it's tough.

257
00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:30,200
Whoever lasted the whole like dry settles
way better than Matthews.

258
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,802
I think that debate has gone to bed,
right?

259
00:13:32,802 --> 00:13:33,616
Yeah.

260
00:13:35,190 --> 00:13:36,070
The whole like...

261
00:13:36,070 --> 00:13:39,150
in there because that guy is just so
incredible too, but like other than those

262
00:13:39,150 --> 00:13:41,505
three, no one is even close.

263
00:13:41,505 --> 00:13:45,495
Well, as much as I hate to admit it,
especially with his piss poor showing at

264
00:13:45,495 --> 00:13:51,765
the All -Star game, like, Kucherov's
factored in on just over 50 % of the Tampa

265
00:13:51,765 --> 00:13:52,857
goals this year.

266
00:13:52,918 --> 00:13:53,798
Jesus.

267
00:13:53,798 --> 00:13:55,458
pretty insane.

268
00:13:55,458 --> 00:13:56,798
Maybe, yeah.

269
00:13:57,438 --> 00:13:59,105
You don't want to admit it, but it's true.

270
00:13:59,105 --> 00:14:03,303
Yeah, I have to admit it as much as it
pains me.

271
00:14:04,266 --> 00:14:06,364
like the stats don't lie.

272
00:14:06,364 --> 00:14:09,844
and I think we'll see a couple more appear
over the next couple of years, but for

273
00:14:09,844 --> 00:14:11,968
now, I'd say that's that's kind of the end
of the list.

274
00:14:11,968 --> 00:14:15,218
if you want to compare like Hooch's
defensive game, I don't think it compares

275
00:14:15,218 --> 00:14:17,468
to McKinnon's or Matthew's.

276
00:14:17,473 --> 00:14:19,147
No, definitely doesn't.

277
00:14:20,216 --> 00:14:24,986
Okay, so to this interesting game tonight.

278
00:14:25,466 --> 00:14:27,466
I mean, who played well?

279
00:14:27,466 --> 00:14:29,746
I'd say Nylander had a good game.

280
00:14:29,746 --> 00:14:31,566
Marner had a decent game.

281
00:14:31,566 --> 00:14:34,606
But other than that, I mean, like Matthews
defensively, yeah, but everybody was

282
00:14:34,606 --> 00:14:39,186
pretty quiet tonight, other than that
Bertuzzi line and fucking Reeves and

283
00:14:39,186 --> 00:14:41,126
Holmberg at the end of the nowhere.

284
00:14:41,466 --> 00:14:45,086
Like, is it Vegas's defense is just that
good?

285
00:14:45,086 --> 00:14:47,670
Like, after this win streak, you think
everybody's

286
00:14:47,670 --> 00:14:52,590
confident they're on this high and they
already beat Vegas and it just seemed like

287
00:14:52,590 --> 00:14:55,010
nobody could really get anything offensive
going.

288
00:14:55,010 --> 00:14:58,710
I mean they got 32 shots but it felt like
everything was exactly where Vegas wanted

289
00:14:58,710 --> 00:14:59,334
it.

290
00:15:01,057 --> 00:15:03,277
Just one of those games, right?

291
00:15:03,477 --> 00:15:08,957
Like, you get one or two lapses and they
end up in your net.

292
00:15:09,037 --> 00:15:12,537
Like, you can't really fault Sammy on the
breakaway.

293
00:15:12,537 --> 00:15:14,097
That's a crap shoot.

294
00:15:14,097 --> 00:15:15,737
You can't really...

295
00:15:15,737 --> 00:15:17,810
Yeah, the second goal, the tip...

296
00:15:17,810 --> 00:15:19,810
somebody is at fault for that.

297
00:15:19,810 --> 00:15:21,390
Like, come on.

298
00:15:21,970 --> 00:15:22,978
No, but -

299
00:15:22,978 --> 00:15:23,657
Peter.

300
00:15:23,657 --> 00:15:27,967
Riley and Brody, they're both watching the
play and he just skated right up the

301
00:15:27,967 --> 00:15:28,957
middle through.

302
00:15:28,957 --> 00:15:32,297
Like, I don't let that happen in my beer
league and I'm the shittiest player on my

303
00:15:32,297 --> 00:15:33,037
team.

304
00:15:33,037 --> 00:15:33,776
Like...

305
00:15:33,776 --> 00:15:36,406
he was going to change lines or something?

306
00:15:36,406 --> 00:15:38,266
Like, I don't understand.

307
00:15:38,266 --> 00:15:40,366
They watched him.

308
00:15:41,026 --> 00:15:41,886
Ugh, that was...

309
00:15:41,886 --> 00:15:45,146
just one of those games where like a bunch
of weird stuff happened like the skate

310
00:15:45,146 --> 00:15:48,506
blade, them not challenging that high
stick.

311
00:15:49,146 --> 00:15:52,326
Just a bunch of weird, it was a fall game.

312
00:15:52,326 --> 00:15:55,306
So I'm not really gonna read too much into
what happened today.

313
00:15:55,306 --> 00:15:56,906
I thought Sammy played a really good game.

314
00:15:56,906 --> 00:15:59,386
He wasn't at fault for too many of the
goals.

315
00:15:59,426 --> 00:16:02,856
What's more important I think is how
they're gonna rebound tomorrow and if

316
00:16:02,856 --> 00:16:06,370
they're gonna show what they were showing
for that seven game streak.

317
00:16:06,414 --> 00:16:12,514
Yeah, this one felt like every single
sloppy mistake resulted in a goal.

318
00:16:12,514 --> 00:16:17,094
Like, you know, you can make mistakes any
night and your goalie will make the save

319
00:16:17,094 --> 00:16:18,794
or somebody else picks the puck up.

320
00:16:18,794 --> 00:16:22,874
But this was like they made every mistake
at the worst possible time in the worst

321
00:16:22,874 --> 00:16:23,694
possible spot.

322
00:16:23,694 --> 00:16:26,604
And it took a weird bounce off somebody or
a weird tip.

323
00:16:26,604 --> 00:16:28,654
And it's like, well, OK, fuck.

324
00:16:29,114 --> 00:16:29,338
Like.

325
00:16:29,338 --> 00:16:32,568
like even offensively, I felt they had a
pretty, they had some good chances too,

326
00:16:32,568 --> 00:16:36,718
just to go in the net and those chances
were going in the net the previous seven

327
00:16:36,718 --> 00:16:37,550
games.

328
00:16:37,550 --> 00:16:42,050
Yeah, it felt like instead of taking the
shots they wanted tonight, they were just

329
00:16:42,050 --> 00:16:45,390
scrambling in front of the net to try to
get something in or make those those

330
00:16:45,390 --> 00:16:47,070
dangerous passes right in front.

331
00:16:47,070 --> 00:16:50,690
And honestly, I mean, they've proved this
year that they can score that way if they

332
00:16:50,690 --> 00:16:51,110
need to.

333
00:16:51,110 --> 00:16:53,370
And look, Brutus, you managed to put one
in.

334
00:16:53,370 --> 00:16:54,420
It just didn't happen.

335
00:16:54,420 --> 00:16:55,754
Like, look, camp got set up.

336
00:16:55,754 --> 00:16:56,664
82 games a year.

337
00:16:56,664 --> 00:16:58,664
This is gonna happen once in a while.

338
00:16:58,688 --> 00:17:03,038
Marner and Kempf almost had that good
chance on the shorthanded one there.

339
00:17:03,038 --> 00:17:05,918
But yeah, like they just they didn't get
the bounces they needed.

340
00:17:06,238 --> 00:17:10,958
But look, the fact that Pertuzzi did and
has continued to is something that holy

341
00:17:10,958 --> 00:17:12,778
shit we needed.

342
00:17:13,761 --> 00:17:18,841
Well, not only Bertuzzi bearing and it
looks like he's finally found his touch,

343
00:17:18,841 --> 00:17:20,371
but we've touched on it all year.

344
00:17:20,371 --> 00:17:22,551
He's been in the right spots.

345
00:17:22,551 --> 00:17:27,261
He's had chances, just he's been the most
snake bit player I think we've seen in

346
00:17:27,261 --> 00:17:28,241
ages.

347
00:17:29,001 --> 00:17:34,061
But despite some defensive lapses, yet
again, we're missing Lily.

348
00:17:34,801 --> 00:17:38,191
Realistically, they're probably going to
add some form of defensive help at some

349
00:17:38,191 --> 00:17:40,601
point between now and the deadline.

350
00:17:42,273 --> 00:17:45,873
As you touched on, it was a decent showing
by Sammy.

351
00:17:45,973 --> 00:17:51,033
Like he wasn't perfect, but he didn't, he
didn't resort back to his swimming.

352
00:17:51,033 --> 00:17:55,163
You know, there's been times, or
especially earlier this season when he's

353
00:17:55,163 --> 00:18:01,393
gotten down like a goal, two goals, three
goals, and he almost, he doesn't give up

354
00:18:01,393 --> 00:18:05,293
on the game, but he resorts back to that
over committing, over sliding.

355
00:18:05,293 --> 00:18:09,313
Like what Aiden Hill did when he lost the
skate blade, that was Sammy at the

356
00:18:09,313 --> 00:18:11,434
beginning of the season, cause he was
overplaying.

357
00:18:11,434 --> 00:18:12,161
blade.

358
00:18:12,161 --> 00:18:16,701
Yeah, he was overplaying the cross crease
passes so badly.

359
00:18:17,781 --> 00:18:19,801
So it's really good to see that back.

360
00:18:19,801 --> 00:18:28,041
And then it wasn't the piss poor, they're
not trying, they're just going through the

361
00:18:28,041 --> 00:18:28,441
motions.

362
00:18:28,441 --> 00:18:30,321
Like they were still trying.

363
00:18:31,541 --> 00:18:34,721
It's just the bounces weren't going like
it.

364
00:18:34,721 --> 00:18:38,401
Like you said, so the losses happen,
you're not going to win all 82.

365
00:18:38,401 --> 00:18:40,763
But it's a better.

366
00:18:40,929 --> 00:18:46,269
a better loss visually and as a fan to
watch than a lot of the ones we've seen

367
00:18:46,269 --> 00:18:47,403
earlier this year.

368
00:18:47,552 --> 00:18:47,982
Mm hmm.

369
00:18:47,982 --> 00:18:50,822
Like they weren't getting bounce this
night, but they definitely didn't get beat

370
00:18:50,822 --> 00:18:54,322
because they weren't competing or they
were just playing poor hockey.

371
00:18:54,322 --> 00:18:57,292
And to your point, like I thought Sammy
played especially great in the first 30

372
00:18:57,292 --> 00:18:58,262
minutes.

373
00:18:58,302 --> 00:18:59,422
He kept the team in it.

374
00:18:59,422 --> 00:19:00,362
He was super crisp.

375
00:19:00,362 --> 00:19:03,502
There was one play where he had this
rebound from that and he just cleared the

376
00:19:03,502 --> 00:19:07,742
puck in the corner so quickly and moved to
his lateral post like that.

377
00:19:07,742 --> 00:19:11,092
He was not doing that at all at the first
part of the season.

378
00:19:11,092 --> 00:19:13,762
Like that's how you can tell he was super
confident.

379
00:19:13,762 --> 00:19:16,974
Maybe it's because he knows walls coming
up, but like.

380
00:19:17,986 --> 00:19:22,536
I have a hard time getting him out of the
net the way he's playing right now.

381
00:19:22,536 --> 00:19:25,416
Like he has to play his way out of the
net, I think.

382
00:19:25,686 --> 00:19:29,236
Oh my God, sorry that when he batted that
in the corner, I was like, I literally

383
00:19:29,236 --> 00:19:31,362
just yes, Sammy, thank you.

384
00:19:31,362 --> 00:19:35,470
he wasn't doing that shit whatsoever in
the first like half of the season

385
00:19:35,470 --> 00:19:41,560
No, it wasn't a 6 -2 game when you watched
it like on paper It looks so much worse

386
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,610
because like I said, they made a lot of
bad mistakes But it seemed like anytime

387
00:19:44,610 --> 00:19:48,530
they did get something going they it was
like Oh made up penalty.

388
00:19:48,530 --> 00:19:51,310
Here we go Like oh, are you kidding?

389
00:19:51,310 --> 00:19:53,094
high stick, the game is over.

390
00:19:53,486 --> 00:19:54,746
Yeah.

391
00:19:56,126 --> 00:19:57,826
Should have.

392
00:19:57,826 --> 00:20:01,844
That third goal, the timing of that third
goal was bad too.

393
00:20:02,614 --> 00:20:06,004
Oh, obviously with like under a minute
left, especially after Batoosie just

394
00:20:06,004 --> 00:20:09,274
rallied us, like you think you need to go
into the third period with down one.

395
00:20:09,274 --> 00:20:12,756
That's a, yeah, that's a huge momentum
shifter.

396
00:20:12,756 --> 00:20:15,926
even in his post -game JT was like, yeah,
I was trying to feed that up to Marner

397
00:20:15,926 --> 00:20:18,506
along the boards and I lost it.

398
00:20:18,506 --> 00:20:19,900
It was a bad play.

399
00:20:20,128 --> 00:20:23,238
The one thing for me was the high stick
non -challenge because it looked like it

400
00:20:23,238 --> 00:20:26,348
was pretty borderline and even if you lose
it you're gonna get a penalty and you're

401
00:20:26,348 --> 00:20:30,898
gonna lose that game no matter what but if
you win that call you have a chance at

402
00:20:30,898 --> 00:20:31,472
least.

403
00:20:31,472 --> 00:20:34,842
that I don't know why they didn't do that
unless there was something in the

404
00:20:34,842 --> 00:20:39,012
situation room where they're like When it
actually made contact with the puck it was

405
00:20:39,012 --> 00:20:39,882
below his shoulder.

406
00:20:39,882 --> 00:20:40,898
I don't know

407
00:20:40,898 --> 00:20:43,838
Maybe because like the least team are
like, they're great at making these calls.

408
00:20:43,838 --> 00:20:47,809
They're almost perfect at it, but I feel
like that's one you had to risk.

409
00:20:47,809 --> 00:20:54,079
I don't know if it's their history, but
with their history and the success rate of

410
00:20:54,079 --> 00:20:58,429
their challenges that kind of almost has
me not questioning it.

411
00:20:58,829 --> 00:21:02,722
Like they have an angle that we don't type
thing.

412
00:21:02,722 --> 00:21:04,822
Yeah, it could be for sure.

413
00:21:04,902 --> 00:21:07,032
But like, wouldn't you just want to roll
the dice at that point?

414
00:21:07,032 --> 00:21:10,084
Because you're going to lose the game
anyways if you don't.

415
00:21:11,905 --> 00:21:13,785
with all the questions.

416
00:21:14,005 --> 00:21:15,321
Sorry, go ahead, Roscoe.

417
00:21:15,378 --> 00:21:19,008
it might be worth it even just to show the
guys like you're still fighting to get

418
00:21:19,008 --> 00:21:23,038
that last one back instead of them being
like, you why didn't you and having that

419
00:21:23,038 --> 00:21:24,138
come back to the dressing room?

420
00:21:24,138 --> 00:21:25,494
Like, why didn't you challenge that?

421
00:21:25,494 --> 00:21:30,778
Hail Mary, but like it's, you know, a
little pep to the boys, but...

422
00:21:30,835 --> 00:21:36,275
not pinning the loss on the officials, but
with the way some of the calls went, why

423
00:21:36,275 --> 00:21:38,637
do you want to give yourself another
penalty, right?

424
00:21:38,818 --> 00:21:40,558
You're right, yeah, it's true.

425
00:21:40,558 --> 00:21:42,398
Yeah, those calls were bad tonight.

426
00:21:42,398 --> 00:21:43,358
A lot of missed things.

427
00:21:43,358 --> 00:21:44,378
Oh, God.

428
00:21:44,378 --> 00:21:47,458
Calls aside, though, McCabe's poor nose.

429
00:21:47,458 --> 00:21:49,098
This guy...

430
00:21:49,098 --> 00:21:51,720
It is never going to heal.

431
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,170
his nose has been mangled like four or
three times.

432
00:21:54,170 --> 00:21:55,330
It's unreal.

433
00:21:55,330 --> 00:21:56,540
He won't recover from this.

434
00:21:56,540 --> 00:21:59,052
Like, he's gonna be ugly for the rest of
his life.

435
00:21:59,052 --> 00:22:01,242
starting to look worse too, eh?

436
00:22:01,242 --> 00:22:04,942
Like, when it's, it's not going to heal
properly.

437
00:22:04,942 --> 00:22:05,410
Fuck.

438
00:22:05,410 --> 00:22:07,694
His cartilage is like Play -Doh right now.

439
00:22:07,694 --> 00:22:08,774
hit that?

440
00:22:08,774 --> 00:22:10,664
Man, I watched it on repeat.

441
00:22:10,664 --> 00:22:14,026
He hit the board so fucking hard.

442
00:22:14,210 --> 00:22:17,240
This guy hasn't missed a shift because of
this either.

443
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:18,410
Like, let's be clear about this.

444
00:22:18,410 --> 00:22:20,810
This guy is a warrior back there.

445
00:22:20,890 --> 00:22:25,006
Say what you want about Dubus, but that
trade for him is unreal good.

446
00:22:25,006 --> 00:22:29,006
Fantastic trade and everybody pointed out
he jumped right up from that like he

447
00:22:29,006 --> 00:22:32,596
didn't go to the bench like he jumped He
jumped right up and went back to the play.

448
00:22:32,596 --> 00:22:38,166
I was like, oh fuck I am bleeding again
He's been so good him and Benoit just

449
00:22:38,166 --> 00:22:41,746
laying people out of something that
everybody's been missing

450
00:22:42,177 --> 00:22:47,047
As much as I don't want to do it, like, I
used to have, part of the reason why I

451
00:22:47,047 --> 00:22:52,007
actually wore this jersey, I used to have
a rule where I wouldn't buy a jersey of a

452
00:22:52,007 --> 00:22:58,747
player unless they either did something
that I wanted to commemorate, like, you

453
00:22:58,747 --> 00:23:02,027
know, never forget, or, because it would
always be my luck, I'd get, I wouldn't

454
00:23:02,027 --> 00:23:04,787
spend a jersey because they were a lot of
money, but I'd get a t -shirt, you know,

455
00:23:04,787 --> 00:23:08,007
you can get the player t -shirts with the
name and number on the back, and then like

456
00:23:08,007 --> 00:23:11,283
two weeks later they'd get traded or sent
down to the miners and never come back.

457
00:23:11,618 --> 00:23:12,065
Yeah.

458
00:23:12,065 --> 00:23:14,745
like this is a Commorob Uncle Leo.

459
00:23:14,745 --> 00:23:21,685
This was the first jersey I ever bought
with a name on the back because it was his

460
00:23:21,685 --> 00:23:23,995
third season with the Leafs and I was
like, you know what?

461
00:23:23,995 --> 00:23:25,785
I love this guy so much.

462
00:23:25,785 --> 00:23:27,665
I don't care if he leaves.

463
00:23:28,185 --> 00:23:31,975
And I'm almost at that point with Benoit,
which is ridiculous because he hasn't even

464
00:23:31,975 --> 00:23:32,715
played a full season.

465
00:23:32,715 --> 00:23:34,445
Like I love this guy.

466
00:23:34,685 --> 00:23:38,947
I actually want to buy a Benoit jersey and
I don't even have a Nylander yet.

467
00:23:39,662 --> 00:23:44,002
except for shooting the puck and scoring
goals, but everything else he does is

468
00:23:44,002 --> 00:23:44,996
amazing.

469
00:23:45,870 --> 00:23:48,490
I just had to check.

470
00:23:48,750 --> 00:23:52,110
Trivia question, where is Leo Komarov
currently playing?

471
00:23:52,430 --> 00:23:54,810
And yes, he is still playing.

472
00:23:55,881 --> 00:23:57,061
Wait, no, he's...

473
00:23:57,061 --> 00:23:58,211
he's...

474
00:23:58,211 --> 00:24:00,281
KHL or Finland, because he's Finnish.

475
00:24:00,901 --> 00:24:03,509
I said Dynamo, initially.

476
00:24:04,302 --> 00:24:12,182
He plays for HIFK Helsinki in the SM Liga.

477
00:24:12,642 --> 00:24:14,067
Currently in 10 -

478
00:24:14,067 --> 00:24:15,748
seven languages too.

479
00:24:16,174 --> 00:24:19,674
In ten games, he's got three goals on one
assist.

480
00:24:20,914 --> 00:24:22,044
He's still playing.

481
00:24:22,044 --> 00:24:24,394
That's crazy.

482
00:24:24,866 --> 00:24:26,310
He's a spark plug.

483
00:24:26,365 --> 00:24:26,835
loved him.

484
00:24:26,835 --> 00:24:33,225
He wasn't the best player on the ice, but
he was like the anti -marcian, right?

485
00:24:33,225 --> 00:24:33,977
Because...

486
00:24:34,178 --> 00:24:38,498
Yeah, he just got put into bad position
like where he when the Leafs were at the

487
00:24:38,498 --> 00:24:40,698
lowest, he was like a top line winger.

488
00:24:40,698 --> 00:24:43,438
There's no way that he should have ever
been in that spot.

489
00:24:43,438 --> 00:24:48,158
A great, great, great third line player,
but he should not be stiffing like top two

490
00:24:48,158 --> 00:24:49,198
line minutes.

491
00:24:49,262 --> 00:24:51,282
Oh, the tankiers.

492
00:24:51,282 --> 00:24:52,574
Good times.

493
00:24:54,222 --> 00:24:56,552
Glad we didn't have to cover those games.

494
00:24:56,552 --> 00:24:59,962
Started after that whole shit show.

495
00:24:59,962 --> 00:25:00,882
Anyway.

496
00:25:01,702 --> 00:25:07,122
So, I mean, I guess it's just pack up and
reroll for the next game.

497
00:25:07,122 --> 00:25:09,712
Like, the Leafs obviously, it's a seven
game winning streak.

498
00:25:09,712 --> 00:25:11,762
It's the first one since 2003.

499
00:25:11,762 --> 00:25:13,882
There's not much to be mad about here.

500
00:25:13,882 --> 00:25:19,612
It's just the little things that obviously
were, the little things that need tweaking

501
00:25:19,612 --> 00:25:22,902
were pretty glaring tonight because there
wasn't much else to look at.

502
00:25:22,902 --> 00:25:23,618
So.

503
00:25:23,618 --> 00:25:24,182
Mm -hmm.

504
00:25:24,182 --> 00:25:29,382
those things being JT is slowing down a
little the defense has some defense has

505
00:25:29,382 --> 00:25:36,614
some holes and You know the bottom six is
as good as it's gonna get I think

506
00:25:37,026 --> 00:25:39,546
I think the biggest thing is roster moves.

507
00:25:39,546 --> 00:25:43,336
Like I think JT has got to sit over a
couple of games because he's favoring his

508
00:25:43,336 --> 00:25:44,256
ribs in front of the net.

509
00:25:44,256 --> 00:25:48,046
Like he tried to protect the puck and just
the way he was moving, you can tell that

510
00:25:48,046 --> 00:25:52,836
he's definitely liberating there with Lily
out and with three goaltenders coming in.

511
00:25:52,836 --> 00:25:55,646
Like there's, uh, there's some moves to be
made.

512
00:25:55,646 --> 00:25:57,806
So JT can sit for a bit.

513
00:25:57,806 --> 00:26:02,702
That actually helps us figure out the
goaltending situation a bit, but yeah.

514
00:26:02,702 --> 00:26:05,792
I mean, figure it out, still, you can only
play one of them at a time, and it looks

515
00:26:05,792 --> 00:26:09,562
like we've got five, if you include Hilda
Beast, so I don't know what the hell

516
00:26:09,562 --> 00:26:10,916
Brad's gonna do.

517
00:26:11,138 --> 00:26:11,898
There's three.

518
00:26:11,898 --> 00:26:14,378
There's Jones, there's Sammy, and there's
Wall.

519
00:26:14,378 --> 00:26:15,662
That's all there is.

520
00:26:15,662 --> 00:26:19,814
And yeah, we'll see what happens with
Murray, but...

521
00:26:20,129 --> 00:26:22,729
Didn't Marty call at the beginning of the
season?

522
00:26:23,009 --> 00:26:24,456
Murray comes back for playoffs.

523
00:26:24,456 --> 00:26:28,916
No, there's no fucking way this guy sniffs
the roster.

524
00:26:28,916 --> 00:26:31,036
I can't believe they're letting him
practice with the team.

525
00:26:31,036 --> 00:26:34,996
Like this guy should be out with a beer
league team or something right now.

526
00:26:34,996 --> 00:26:36,836
Figuring stuff out in the summer.

527
00:26:36,836 --> 00:26:41,846
But yeah, there's no way that he should be
around the big team because Sammy Norwalt

528
00:26:41,846 --> 00:26:43,527
needs to deal with that stuff.

529
00:26:43,933 --> 00:26:45,465
are on the roster right now?

530
00:26:46,190 --> 00:26:46,930
Well, that's what I mean.

531
00:26:46,930 --> 00:26:48,300
He's practicing with the team.

532
00:26:48,300 --> 00:26:51,710
Why would they have him practicing if they
don't intend on playing him this year?

533
00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:55,630
Like, to your point, like, I thought they
were just gonna say, yeah, we'll talk in

534
00:26:55,630 --> 00:26:56,070
the summer.

535
00:26:56,070 --> 00:26:57,690
Just go do whatever you gotta do.

536
00:26:57,690 --> 00:26:59,678
Why is he here?

537
00:26:59,678 --> 00:27:04,838
I agree with Biner because when he first
signed, I was a huge advocate of him.

538
00:27:04,838 --> 00:27:06,328
What he did in Pittsburgh was unreal.

539
00:27:06,328 --> 00:27:11,568
He's got the pedigree, but his injury
status and his just non -availability

540
00:27:11,568 --> 00:27:15,858
since he's been on the Leafs, I don't
think it warrants another chance,

541
00:27:15,858 --> 00:27:17,718
especially like right now.

542
00:27:17,718 --> 00:27:20,178
But let's hear what you have to say.

543
00:27:20,197 --> 00:27:21,657
a couple things here.

544
00:27:21,657 --> 00:27:23,277
One, I agree.

545
00:27:23,517 --> 00:27:24,363
Like.

546
00:27:25,889 --> 00:27:30,619
What it would do to the psyche of
Samsonoff and Wall, if you were to throw

547
00:27:30,619 --> 00:27:35,979
Murray in for a game when he hasn't played
in a year and a half, like that would be

548
00:27:35,979 --> 00:27:40,009
my biggest concern with just throwing him
in.

549
00:27:40,089 --> 00:27:45,439
But, that being said, look at the Riley
suspension and look at some of the

550
00:27:45,439 --> 00:27:49,269
comments that were made about why he got
what he got.

551
00:27:49,869 --> 00:27:54,241
Take everything out of there, the fact
that, you know, he...

552
00:27:54,241 --> 00:27:57,201
crosscheck someone in the face
intentionally the fact that he didn't have

553
00:27:57,201 --> 00:28:02,311
a history Like there nothing seems to add
up with some of the suspensions,

554
00:28:02,311 --> 00:28:06,271
especially when it comes towards the Leafs
Spezza and Riley both neither of them had

555
00:28:06,271 --> 00:28:09,951
a history at all and Yet they got multiple
games.

556
00:28:09,951 --> 00:28:14,871
Whereas other guys do the exact same damn
thing and they get fines There is always a

557
00:28:14,871 --> 00:28:18,031
spotlight on Toronto whether people like
it or not.

558
00:28:18,031 --> 00:28:24,257
There always is I guarantee you if someone
saw Matt Murray out in public

559
00:28:24,257 --> 00:28:29,027
just walking down the street without a
limp and without a cast, they would be

560
00:28:29,027 --> 00:28:32,897
calling the NHL office immediately saying
that the Leafs are breaking the rules and

561
00:28:32,897 --> 00:28:34,437
he's not actually hurt.

562
00:28:34,837 --> 00:28:38,547
So sure, give him a stall, let him
practice.

563
00:28:38,547 --> 00:28:42,677
If you don't intend to play him, whatever,
because then everybody can say, hey,

564
00:28:42,677 --> 00:28:44,537
they're shooting pucks at him.

565
00:28:44,537 --> 00:28:49,721
If he can't feel comfortable in net and he
can't come back, like they're trying.

566
00:28:50,562 --> 00:28:51,582
I hadn't considered that.

567
00:28:51,582 --> 00:28:53,042
Like, do you think it's an optics thing?

568
00:28:53,042 --> 00:28:57,522
Maybe they went to both Wall and Samsonov
and been like, he's not gonna play.

569
00:28:57,522 --> 00:28:59,582
We're doing this for this reason.

570
00:29:00,242 --> 00:29:00,617
Hmm.

571
00:29:00,617 --> 00:29:04,617
that, because the Roboto Island thing is
such a big joke, right?

572
00:29:04,617 --> 00:29:05,050
Like...

573
00:29:05,050 --> 00:29:05,480
Reeves.

574
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,400
He comes out and says he's okay to play
and all of a sudden the next game, oh,

575
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,450
we're taking him off IR because he's okay.

576
00:29:11,450 --> 00:29:15,690
Like they got called out and the league
was like, hey guys, enough of this

577
00:29:15,690 --> 00:29:16,552
bullshit.

578
00:29:16,558 --> 00:29:20,718
not pretend that teams don't bury people
in iron stuff, but you might be very right

579
00:29:20,718 --> 00:29:21,758
on this.

580
00:29:21,758 --> 00:29:21,938
Yeah.

581
00:29:21,938 --> 00:29:24,618
But Toronto is on a way bigger microscope.

582
00:29:24,618 --> 00:29:25,518
100%.

583
00:29:25,518 --> 00:29:29,718
And it's come to the point where like,
look, Tampa got the 0 .18 mil over the

584
00:29:29,718 --> 00:29:29,978
cap.

585
00:29:29,978 --> 00:29:31,898
This has become the Leafs thing.

586
00:29:31,898 --> 00:29:35,138
Robo .island has become what the Leafs
joke is.

587
00:29:35,138 --> 00:29:37,618
This is how we get around the salary cap.

588
00:29:37,798 --> 00:29:38,876
So instead of.

589
00:29:38,876 --> 00:29:43,476
the real question, like is what are you
gonna do if you send Jones down?

590
00:29:43,476 --> 00:29:45,406
He's 100 % gonna get claimed.

591
00:29:45,406 --> 00:29:48,716
Do you trade one of these goaltenders
before the deadline and just roll the dice

592
00:29:48,716 --> 00:29:51,026
that one of them don't get hurt?

593
00:29:51,266 --> 00:29:54,156
It's a real, real big question I think
going forward.

594
00:29:54,156 --> 00:29:56,346
Maybe the biggest question going forward
for the Leafs.

595
00:29:56,346 --> 00:30:00,256
think the safest thing to do is you trade
Jones for a pick to use in bringing

596
00:30:00,256 --> 00:30:04,006
somebody else in because you're safe
enough to have Wal Sampson off.

597
00:30:04,006 --> 00:30:08,746
And if you absolutely have to, Hildeby,
and then there's Murray, but like you're

598
00:30:08,746 --> 00:30:10,678
kind of opening yourself up to.

599
00:30:10,678 --> 00:30:12,758
What do you get like a fifth, seventh
room?

600
00:30:12,758 --> 00:30:13,818
I don't know.

601
00:30:13,818 --> 00:30:14,430
Go ahead, Dean.

602
00:30:14,430 --> 00:30:18,074
the deadline for Martin Jones, I think
you'd be able to get like a third.

603
00:30:18,466 --> 00:30:19,617
I don't think so.

604
00:30:19,617 --> 00:30:23,001
If you guys had to guess how much cap
space you see the leafs at right now.

605
00:30:23,148 --> 00:30:24,278
Uh...

606
00:30:24,278 --> 00:30:25,868
four million?

607
00:30:27,105 --> 00:30:29,545
Oh, that was a lot more generous than I
thought you were going to say.

608
00:30:29,545 --> 00:30:30,699
2 .1.

609
00:30:31,014 --> 00:30:32,128
let's say one.

610
00:30:32,128 --> 00:30:34,986
don't know, they've had a lot of people on
IR, so.

611
00:30:35,233 --> 00:30:40,501
So you can activate wall and you still,
you don't need to do anything.

612
00:30:41,506 --> 00:30:43,812
But you can only dress so many players,
right?

613
00:30:44,097 --> 00:30:50,065
Yeah, but if you're truly worried, like
send, send Lajoie down.

614
00:30:50,784 --> 00:30:53,852
Or Robertson, silly forwarder, can go down
to you without being claimed.

615
00:30:53,852 --> 00:30:56,513
only dress two goalies though.

616
00:30:56,513 --> 00:30:59,081
Well yeah, you don't - I'm not saying
dress 3.

617
00:30:59,634 --> 00:31:01,910
On your roster, you can have three though.

618
00:31:02,273 --> 00:31:05,466
Yeah, you don't have to dress every player
that you have up for your roster, right?

619
00:31:05,466 --> 00:31:09,886
I guess you can just healthy scratch one
of your goalies and just hold them.

620
00:31:09,886 --> 00:31:10,888
Yeah.

621
00:31:12,652 --> 00:31:13,608
I get it.

622
00:31:13,608 --> 00:31:15,498
such a big thing going forward.

623
00:31:16,081 --> 00:31:17,306
there's.

624
00:31:17,306 --> 00:31:21,686
a position to be carrying a goalie on the
cap to sit.

625
00:31:22,626 --> 00:31:25,576
Like if you want to make a move at the
deadline to bring somebody else in, you

626
00:31:25,576 --> 00:31:29,846
need that extra like million or whatever
it is that Jones is going to eat up or

627
00:31:29,846 --> 00:31:31,005
under a million, but still.

628
00:31:31,005 --> 00:31:35,595
now they're carrying eight defensemen and
13 forwards and they have two million in

629
00:31:35,595 --> 00:31:36,615
cap space.

630
00:31:38,145 --> 00:31:43,545
so they can definitely afford to activate
wall without doing a damn thing other than

631
00:31:43,545 --> 00:31:48,831
sending someone who can actually go down
without waivers like Glugeois.

632
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,650
Lizzo Robertson, like Gregor, yeah
exactly.

633
00:31:52,650 --> 00:31:55,792
And I think they might do that until the
deadline too.

634
00:31:56,225 --> 00:31:58,297
It's nothing that has to be done right
now.

635
00:31:58,786 --> 00:32:01,766
Yeah, and to your point, Johnny, I think
you're right.

636
00:32:01,766 --> 00:32:04,226
Jones is the guy who's going to go.

637
00:32:05,066 --> 00:32:09,166
A slow hand clap for him, like he probably
saved our season in December and

638
00:32:09,166 --> 00:32:09,466
everything.

639
00:32:09,466 --> 00:32:10,316
That's the way he played.

640
00:32:10,316 --> 00:32:11,746
It was unexpected.

641
00:32:11,766 --> 00:32:16,646
But if you have a tandem of Samsonov and
Wall going forward, you cross your fingers

642
00:32:16,646 --> 00:32:17,866
that they're both going to be healthy.

643
00:32:17,866 --> 00:32:20,686
But those are the best two guys to go
forward with.

644
00:32:20,686 --> 00:32:25,476
Yeah, and also to give credit to Jones
for, I guess, turning his own career

645
00:32:25,476 --> 00:32:29,766
around because when he came into the Leaf
system, he wasn't going to even really be

646
00:32:29,766 --> 00:32:33,926
playing starting minutes like he was on
the Marlies and they brought him up.

647
00:32:33,926 --> 00:32:34,096
Right.

648
00:32:34,096 --> 00:32:35,080
So like this guy.

649
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,380
not like he sucked the year before.

650
00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:38,050
He did great in the playoffs in Seattle.

651
00:32:38,050 --> 00:32:41,864
Like this guy's got a record of being a
good goaltender, even with San Jose.

652
00:32:41,864 --> 00:32:44,064
got a record of being a sub 900
goaltender.

653
00:32:44,064 --> 00:32:48,194
He has the record of being the like
actually being the worst starting

654
00:32:48,194 --> 00:32:51,984
goaltender of the last couple of years,
who's actually still a starting

655
00:32:51,984 --> 00:32:52,734
goaltender.

656
00:32:52,734 --> 00:32:57,194
But obviously, that means his he's been on
bad teams.

657
00:32:57,194 --> 00:32:59,354
It's his numbers are reflective of that.

658
00:32:59,354 --> 00:33:04,634
But the fact that, you know, people
weren't offering him a starting position,

659
00:33:04,634 --> 00:33:07,412
you know, he he turned an injury and.

660
00:33:07,674 --> 00:33:11,634
opportunity with the Leafs into probably
going somewhere because the Leafs can't

661
00:33:11,634 --> 00:33:14,298
afford to wave him because he's going to
get claimed.

662
00:33:14,662 --> 00:33:17,242
he was also waived at one point, like he
didn't get picked up.

663
00:33:17,242 --> 00:33:17,882
So.

664
00:33:18,018 --> 00:33:20,968
So, you know, now he's in a position where
people are going to be fighting for him,

665
00:33:20,968 --> 00:33:21,474
I'm sure.

666
00:33:21,474 --> 00:33:26,424
This is a good problem to have too,
because the Leafs are not notorious for

667
00:33:26,424 --> 00:33:29,774
having depth in net, and they really do
right now.

668
00:33:29,774 --> 00:33:36,824
Yeah, that's the other thing is that's
see, fuck, I was just gonna say that's the

669
00:33:36,824 --> 00:33:36,904
thing.

670
00:33:36,904 --> 00:33:40,364
It's good to have the depth, but it's like
we can almost afford to get rid of some of

671
00:33:40,364 --> 00:33:40,524
this.

672
00:33:40,524 --> 00:33:42,568
I think we actually have a surplus.

673
00:33:44,482 --> 00:33:49,472
I think we're so delicate going into the
playoffs that I wouldn't want to rely on

674
00:33:49,472 --> 00:33:50,322
Hilda Beast right now.

675
00:33:50,322 --> 00:33:52,866
That's not even an option for me.

676
00:33:54,446 --> 00:33:58,526
It depends on how much he, like, I wish
Keith had played him those few games that

677
00:33:58,526 --> 00:34:05,246
they brought him up and he was sitting on
the bench, like, there was a, but it was

678
00:34:05,246 --> 00:34:08,826
like the beginning of February or like
late January, they definitely could have

679
00:34:08,826 --> 00:34:09,334
just given -

680
00:34:09,334 --> 00:34:12,304
lays an egg for two games and all of a
sudden all you're gonna talk about is how

681
00:34:12,304 --> 00:34:14,434
this guy is shit and he's not anything.

682
00:34:14,434 --> 00:34:17,174
He's gonna have his time and it's not
right now.

683
00:34:17,454 --> 00:34:19,924
But two games is not gonna tell you what
he is.

684
00:34:19,924 --> 00:34:22,254
This guy's great, like we know he's
actually gonna be good.

685
00:34:22,254 --> 00:34:24,864
He's gonna have his chance, but it's not
right now.

686
00:34:24,864 --> 00:34:26,606
So I'm actually really glad they didn't.

687
00:34:26,606 --> 00:34:29,926
Actually, to Justin's point, you do know
for this year.

688
00:34:30,326 --> 00:34:34,436
And then you can make a decision without
having the question mark of, well, there

689
00:34:34,436 --> 00:34:35,486
is still Hildeby.

690
00:34:35,486 --> 00:34:37,656
No, we tried that already in January.

691
00:34:37,656 --> 00:34:37,996
this year.

692
00:34:37,996 --> 00:34:39,876
This guy would have played one or two
games, that's it.

693
00:34:39,876 --> 00:34:41,486
That's his sample size.

694
00:34:42,506 --> 00:34:44,106
Same is not gonna be here next year.

695
00:34:44,106 --> 00:34:45,186
Jones is not gonna be here next year.

696
00:34:45,186 --> 00:34:47,126
It's gonna be Wall and it's probably gonna
be Hilda Beast.

697
00:34:47,126 --> 00:34:48,878
He's gonna get his chance then.

698
00:34:48,878 --> 00:34:50,138
Yeah.

699
00:34:50,818 --> 00:34:51,511
Well.

700
00:34:51,511 --> 00:34:52,991
still got the two Russians.

701
00:34:53,728 --> 00:34:56,225
I'd sooner fucking get flurry than before
him.

702
00:34:56,225 --> 00:34:58,233
Hexa and Octyamoff as well.

703
00:34:58,914 --> 00:34:59,574
Yeah.

704
00:34:59,574 --> 00:35:02,876
Who's that tall tall motherfucker we
signed to?

705
00:35:02,945 --> 00:35:04,105
Hildeby.

706
00:35:06,825 --> 00:35:09,465
I think Hildeby is the tallest one in our
system.

707
00:35:09,646 --> 00:35:14,446
Okay, just to steal one from the broadcast
tonight, they brought up a couple names,

708
00:35:14,446 --> 00:35:19,086
but the two that were discussed were for
defensive options.

709
00:35:19,686 --> 00:35:24,206
Yeah, the two defensive options, Ilya
Labushkin and Sean Walker.

710
00:35:24,206 --> 00:35:26,004
Which one do you like more?

711
00:35:28,225 --> 00:35:30,145
I'm definitely not siding with Draeger.

712
00:35:30,145 --> 00:35:32,025
I'm not really an insider.

713
00:35:32,185 --> 00:35:33,529
Like, fuck.

714
00:35:34,274 --> 00:35:35,334
Dragon is worse.

715
00:35:35,334 --> 00:35:36,869
He might be worse than Kipper.

716
00:35:36,869 --> 00:35:39,469
Like, why would they go - Ah, that's
Bushnet.

717
00:35:39,469 --> 00:35:42,069
Why would they go after LeBouchkin?

718
00:35:42,069 --> 00:35:45,339
Like, I'm not saying there's anything
wrong with the guy, but we've had him

719
00:35:45,339 --> 00:35:45,950
before.

720
00:35:45,950 --> 00:35:48,510
-handed shot, that's the only thing he has
going for him really.

721
00:35:48,510 --> 00:35:51,002
He's a bit nasty on the D -line but...

722
00:35:51,150 --> 00:35:52,270
did like him when he was here.

723
00:35:52,270 --> 00:35:55,760
I mean, he lays people out and he's got a
decent shot and he's right handed.

724
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:56,790
I think that's kind of it.

725
00:35:56,790 --> 00:35:58,920
He was like Luke Shen light.

726
00:35:59,319 --> 00:36:00,817
have been wild for that now.

727
00:36:01,218 --> 00:36:02,998
Yeah, he gets turned around a lot.

728
00:36:02,998 --> 00:36:05,846
His break -up passes are not very good at
all.

729
00:36:06,318 --> 00:36:09,730
And they're talking about having him play
with Morgan Reilly, like...

730
00:36:09,730 --> 00:36:11,438
Yeah, 100%.

731
00:36:11,438 --> 00:36:16,138
Really you need somebody that's not TJ
Brody to play with Morgan Reilly.

732
00:36:16,138 --> 00:36:21,518
To his credit, Marc Giordano had a good
game, but they still need somebody that's

733
00:36:21,518 --> 00:36:22,842
solid and can play more.

734
00:36:22,842 --> 00:36:25,172
like you want to enter your seventh
defensive probably, right?

735
00:36:25,172 --> 00:36:26,974
He can't be playing every night.

736
00:36:28,074 --> 00:36:30,864
Oh my god, he was I say he had a good
game.

737
00:36:30,864 --> 00:36:34,934
He had a good game until he decided to
pass it to William Lagas and instead of

738
00:36:34,934 --> 00:36:37,154
Austin Matthews, who was wide fucking
open.

739
00:36:37,154 --> 00:36:39,694
Sure, at a boy geo.

740
00:36:40,314 --> 00:36:43,804
But no, TJ Brody and Morgan Riley were
like minus four together tonight.

741
00:36:43,804 --> 00:36:47,884
So obviously Riley's partner needs to
change going into the playoffs because

742
00:36:47,884 --> 00:36:49,724
that one this year is just not

743
00:36:50,786 --> 00:36:51,866
Not at all.

744
00:36:52,814 --> 00:36:58,254
Oh my god, Tanev's rumored to everywhere
about the Leafs now, so I don't know what

745
00:36:58,254 --> 00:37:00,314
the plan is.

746
00:37:00,353 --> 00:37:02,013
At this point I don't even know if I...

747
00:37:02,013 --> 00:37:02,813
like...

748
00:37:02,813 --> 00:37:03,733
okay.

749
00:37:03,813 --> 00:37:06,893
Saying I don't want to have sounds stupid?

750
00:37:07,433 --> 00:37:09,294
Yeah, I don't think that's the greatest
fit.

751
00:37:09,294 --> 00:37:11,702
no, I don't either.

752
00:37:12,942 --> 00:37:17,872
I just don't really know what is available
out there, but Brad could really just go

753
00:37:17,872 --> 00:37:19,782
off the board and find something else.

754
00:37:19,782 --> 00:37:20,514
I don't know.

755
00:37:20,514 --> 00:37:24,294
I think it would have to be off the board
because the obvious people like you said,

756
00:37:24,294 --> 00:37:32,314
Tenev, Hanifin, Larson for Seattle is even
like a long shot but it would have to be

757
00:37:32,314 --> 00:37:34,864
someone who maybe has some charm and
you're gonna have to give up a bit of

758
00:37:34,864 --> 00:37:36,538
capital just to get him.

759
00:37:37,314 --> 00:37:41,494
Yeah, and the little bit that we have, are
you spending it on that?

760
00:37:41,874 --> 00:37:43,764
Like, shitty position.

761
00:37:43,764 --> 00:37:45,074
lately.

762
00:37:45,974 --> 00:37:48,514
Don't feel too great about that.

763
00:37:49,354 --> 00:37:50,544
But I used to love him.

764
00:37:50,544 --> 00:37:52,986
I think his play has gone down, but...

765
00:37:54,102 --> 00:37:56,986
What if John Klingberg comes back guys?

766
00:37:59,603 --> 00:38:02,718
Well, see, a name I like.

767
00:38:02,718 --> 00:38:08,398
just remembered when I said that the John
Klingberg is a leaf, by the way?

768
00:38:08,778 --> 00:38:10,712
Because I'm sure some people did.

769
00:38:11,010 --> 00:38:12,910
It's deep in this year, psyche.

770
00:38:13,473 --> 00:38:17,853
Yeah, it's definitely a well -known part
of this season.

771
00:38:18,213 --> 00:38:20,023
Like, what about St.

772
00:38:20,023 --> 00:38:20,867
Louis?

773
00:38:22,370 --> 00:38:24,010
You talking perico?

774
00:38:24,379 --> 00:38:27,749
Pareco played together at Worlds, at least
once.

775
00:38:28,169 --> 00:38:29,650
I've always liked them.

776
00:38:29,650 --> 00:38:32,513
got a huge hit, like his number is
massive.

777
00:38:32,513 --> 00:38:34,958
6 .5, it's not horrible.

778
00:38:34,958 --> 00:38:36,138
massive, isn't he?

779
00:38:36,138 --> 00:38:37,762
pretty long too though.

780
00:38:38,049 --> 00:38:39,299
What was that?

781
00:38:39,299 --> 00:38:40,140
Roscoe, sorry?

782
00:38:40,140 --> 00:38:43,150
be honest, I haven't seen too much of him
this year, but when he played against the

783
00:38:43,150 --> 00:38:46,170
Leafs, he got turnstiled a couple times.

784
00:38:46,170 --> 00:38:48,420
I thought...

785
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:51,360
And that's a two -game sample size, right?

786
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,720
So his season might be way better than
that, but from what I've seen, it

787
00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:56,890
wasn't...

788
00:38:56,890 --> 00:38:59,839
When he was on the cup run, that's not the
way he's playing right now.

789
00:38:59,839 --> 00:39:00,889
No, no, no.

790
00:39:01,102 --> 00:39:03,962
Ugh, and his base salary is eight million.

791
00:39:03,962 --> 00:39:07,112
But the last couple of years, it's 4 .8,
so it does make it easier to trade, but

792
00:39:07,112 --> 00:39:10,972
he's got a full, well, he's got a modified
no trade in the last two years, but it's a

793
00:39:10,972 --> 00:39:11,822
no trade clause.

794
00:39:11,822 --> 00:39:13,546
So you'd have to waive it to go to
Toronto.

795
00:39:13,546 --> 00:39:14,466
an upgrade for sure.

796
00:39:14,466 --> 00:39:17,198
Like if he's on the team, he's probably
better than we have right now.

797
00:39:17,198 --> 00:39:19,234
He's not waving it to go to Toronto
though.

798
00:39:20,801 --> 00:39:24,875
At that point in your career, why not?

799
00:39:25,570 --> 00:39:27,660
Yeah, Seattle's, maybe St.

800
00:39:27,660 --> 00:39:29,070
Louis isn't doing anything.

801
00:39:29,601 --> 00:39:35,521
It, it, it, to me, we don't need a, a
Lubuskin.

802
00:39:35,521 --> 00:39:39,981
We need someone who can cut back on
Brody's minutes.

803
00:39:40,661 --> 00:39:45,351
That way Brody can be more effective and
give us a better version of himself in his

804
00:39:45,351 --> 00:39:48,641
current state and position in his career.

805
00:39:49,221 --> 00:39:54,373
So you, you almost need to go for a
massive big splash.

806
00:39:56,513 --> 00:40:07,993
Like, I hate to say it, but do you
capitalize on the publicity that Cowboy's

807
00:40:07,993 --> 00:40:08,773
getting?

808
00:40:09,033 --> 00:40:10,633
I love the kid.

809
00:40:11,013 --> 00:40:15,113
Like, he plays for the Knights, they're my
local OHL team, like, I love him.

810
00:40:15,113 --> 00:40:20,883
And I do think that was a diamond in the
rough find, and, you know, the Leafs have

811
00:40:20,883 --> 00:40:24,973
found a handful of diamonds in the roughs
that turn out to be decent third and

812
00:40:24,973 --> 00:40:26,287
fourth line players.

813
00:40:26,496 --> 00:40:27,101
Mm -hmm.

814
00:40:27,101 --> 00:40:31,161
really found a ton of Diamond in the
Roughs that have been first and second

815
00:40:31,161 --> 00:40:32,321
line players.

816
00:40:32,921 --> 00:40:33,251
Right?

817
00:40:33,251 --> 00:40:34,771
Like, Nye's aside.

818
00:40:35,394 --> 00:40:39,464
Yeah, like a lot of people like compared
to Marsha or something like that.

819
00:40:39,464 --> 00:40:42,194
I don't think that kid's ceiling is that
high.

820
00:40:42,194 --> 00:40:45,724
I think what he's doing right now with the
OHL is incredible and like hats off to

821
00:40:45,724 --> 00:40:46,554
him.

822
00:40:46,594 --> 00:40:51,274
But maybe I'm in the minority, but I don't
think it's going to translate as much to

823
00:40:51,274 --> 00:40:53,094
the NHL as other people think.

824
00:40:53,134 --> 00:40:56,804
So if you do put him in a trade proposal
right now, like you said, it'll never be

825
00:40:56,804 --> 00:40:59,094
higher than what it is right now.

826
00:40:59,214 --> 00:40:59,640
So.

827
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,310
missed the name.

828
00:41:01,930 --> 00:41:03,830
Oh, oh, cowboy.

829
00:41:03,830 --> 00:41:04,200
Okay.

830
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:04,790
That's what I was like.

831
00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:05,590
What are you?

832
00:41:05,590 --> 00:41:05,870
Okay.

833
00:41:05,870 --> 00:41:06,520
Easton Cowan.

834
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:07,125
Yeah.

835
00:41:07,125 --> 00:41:08,180
city farmer.

836
00:41:08,180 --> 00:41:10,002
is not even nearly as close.

837
00:41:11,777 --> 00:41:15,407
So like, Dallas is kind of going through
the same thing right now.

838
00:41:15,818 --> 00:41:18,378
Because what are you going to do if you're
in a way for this guy to develop and

839
00:41:18,378 --> 00:41:20,958
hopefully play with Matthews and Marners
in two or three years?

840
00:41:20,958 --> 00:41:24,918
Our window is right now until two or
three, four years from now.

841
00:41:25,178 --> 00:41:27,758
So yeah, yeah, I think you do.

842
00:41:27,878 --> 00:41:32,724
If you can get a really great defenseman
back, you look into that.

843
00:41:32,929 --> 00:41:37,059
Like unless you're viewing him as, you
know what, this is the last season he's

844
00:41:37,059 --> 00:41:41,809
gonna be in the OHL and he's gonna take
Bertuzzi's minutes next year.

845
00:41:41,809 --> 00:41:43,809
Or I'm just throwing a name out there,
right?

846
00:41:43,809 --> 00:41:47,179
Like unless you have that set in your
mind, you know what, he's taking those

847
00:41:47,179 --> 00:41:53,469
minutes next year, you have to look at
every possible outcome you can to

848
00:41:53,469 --> 00:41:55,919
solidifying this team during this window.

849
00:41:56,770 --> 00:41:59,220
And I don't think he is at that point
right now in his career.

850
00:41:59,220 --> 00:42:00,890
I think he needs another year of
seasoning.

851
00:42:00,890 --> 00:42:04,430
I think he needs another year of like
getting bigger and bulkier.

852
00:42:04,430 --> 00:42:08,770
So yeah, if you were to ever trade this
guy, it is right now.

853
00:42:09,966 --> 00:42:13,006
So what about Rasmus, Bristline and then?

854
00:42:13,646 --> 00:42:14,397
Why?

855
00:42:14,397 --> 00:42:19,017
There is way too much scar tissue there.

856
00:42:19,357 --> 00:42:19,758
Like...

857
00:42:19,758 --> 00:42:21,008
big giveaway machine too.

858
00:42:21,008 --> 00:42:23,918
I don't like the way he breaks out of his
end whatsoever.

859
00:42:23,918 --> 00:42:25,818
He loses his guy a lot.

860
00:42:25,978 --> 00:42:29,298
He's like, he's a little boosh almost like
he can hit like crazy.

861
00:42:29,298 --> 00:42:30,498
He's a bit nasty back there.

862
00:42:30,498 --> 00:42:31,802
But other than that.

863
00:42:34,538 --> 00:42:36,390
Um, what about...

864
00:42:38,062 --> 00:42:43,030
looking at right D Nick Jensen Adam Larson

865
00:42:43,554 --> 00:42:46,034
Larsen's an interesting name for me.

866
00:42:46,714 --> 00:42:50,234
He's a puck moving guy, he's pretty quick,
he fits into the Leafs play.

867
00:42:51,466 --> 00:42:54,966
He's a UFA at the end of the year, so it
would mean...

868
00:42:54,966 --> 00:42:57,018
Oh, no, sorry, the end of next year.

869
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:58,790
Oh yeah, get a pale T .S.

870
00:42:58,790 --> 00:42:59,970
for that guy.

871
00:43:00,001 --> 00:43:03,701
Well and that's the other thing, if you're
gonna give up such a high prospect, it

872
00:43:03,701 --> 00:43:07,061
would be better if you could get something
similar to McCabe.

873
00:43:07,141 --> 00:43:09,381
That it's not just a rental for this year.

874
00:43:09,381 --> 00:43:12,061
Like it doesn't have to be long term, but
a little bit of term.

875
00:43:12,061 --> 00:43:15,781
And I saw that you knew where I was going,
cause I jokingly messaged our group chat

876
00:43:15,781 --> 00:43:18,641
about moving Cowan for Saros.

877
00:43:19,221 --> 00:43:25,041
Cause I'm a short shit goalie and Saros is
a short shit goalie, so.

878
00:43:25,314 --> 00:43:26,034
Stop.

879
00:43:29,474 --> 00:43:30,681
You're a goaltender.

880
00:43:30,681 --> 00:43:31,380
like.

881
00:43:31,380 --> 00:43:35,110
at Andrew peak because Columbus is in
shambles and the guy's got three years at

882
00:43:35,110 --> 00:43:36,010
2 .75.

883
00:43:36,010 --> 00:43:38,070
He's 25 years old.

884
00:43:38,070 --> 00:43:40,300
He has no trade protection.

885
00:43:40,865 --> 00:43:44,545
Well, and there's rumors that the Leafs
were interested in someone like Jenner.

886
00:43:44,545 --> 00:43:46,645
So like, do you do a package?

887
00:43:47,325 --> 00:43:50,905
But it's so tough.

888
00:43:51,345 --> 00:43:54,725
Because there's all these defensemen out
there who...

889
00:43:54,725 --> 00:43:59,445
And we might even just be focusing too
much on like a right -handed D.

890
00:43:59,445 --> 00:44:03,915
Like really, we just need someone who can
cut back on Brodie's minutes and be a

891
00:44:03,915 --> 00:44:05,398
decent partner for Riley.

892
00:44:05,398 --> 00:44:09,488
not having Lillagran tonight with the
right, like forcing everybody to on the

893
00:44:09,488 --> 00:44:14,678
wrong hand, like that kind of resulted in
a lot of defensive lapses.

894
00:44:14,678 --> 00:44:16,375
Like it does affect them.

895
00:44:16,375 --> 00:44:22,095
play on your offside in the NHL and you've
made it to the NHL, then I think you have

896
00:44:22,095 --> 00:44:23,361
bigger problems.

897
00:44:24,238 --> 00:44:24,790
I don't know -

898
00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:31,130
but like to Ross's point, like, Lily's
absence did show like a weakness in our DE

899
00:44:31,130 --> 00:44:32,257
for sure, but...

900
00:44:32,257 --> 00:44:35,537
And it's weird hearing Roscoe say that
after he's been ripping on him all year.

901
00:44:35,537 --> 00:44:36,902
Um...

902
00:44:36,902 --> 00:44:42,202
no, but to be fair, what I said, what I
said was he needed to step up and he

903
00:44:42,202 --> 00:44:45,692
hasn't been given a lot of opportunity
because he's been buried on the third pair

904
00:44:45,692 --> 00:44:47,922
with Gio for most of the year.

905
00:44:47,922 --> 00:44:50,122
So given this opportunity, he stepped up.

906
00:44:50,122 --> 00:44:56,102
So I'm glad, but my critique kind of stood
and he was given an opportunity.

907
00:44:56,102 --> 00:44:56,962
Here we are.

908
00:44:56,962 --> 00:45:01,092
He's going to have to, and like against
all of Toronto media, like we do have the

909
00:45:01,092 --> 00:45:02,562
capital to pull off a trade.

910
00:45:02,562 --> 00:45:03,962
We have a first down pick.

911
00:45:03,962 --> 00:45:05,102
We have Easton Cowan.

912
00:45:05,102 --> 00:45:06,262
We got Midden.

913
00:45:06,262 --> 00:45:07,622
We got Robertson.

914
00:45:07,622 --> 00:45:09,882
There are pieces to get a trade done.

915
00:45:09,882 --> 00:45:13,862
If you want camp to even out some money,
we do have stuff like that too.

916
00:45:13,862 --> 00:45:17,550
And we're also forgetting like how the
yarn crook is coming back too.

917
00:45:17,550 --> 00:45:21,313
I always forget about him too, because
he's been gone for so fucking long now.

918
00:45:21,313 --> 00:45:28,333
So, I don't mind, yes he hasn't had the
greatest of years, but I don't mind the

919
00:45:28,333 --> 00:45:29,527
Damba idea.

920
00:45:30,658 --> 00:45:34,156
Yeah, I was huge on him early in his
career.

921
00:45:34,917 --> 00:45:39,597
he has played very good defense in his
career in the past.

922
00:45:39,597 --> 00:45:41,557
He is your right -handed shot.

923
00:45:41,557 --> 00:45:44,937
He plays a little grittier, plays a little
bit of an edge.

924
00:45:45,537 --> 00:45:51,631
Like, I think he could potentially be a
really good fit for someone like Riley.

925
00:45:52,866 --> 00:45:55,992
Yeah, I'm actually not opposed to it
either.

926
00:45:56,039 --> 00:46:01,399
followed a lot of Minnesota games, but you
know if he played with someone like a

927
00:46:01,399 --> 00:46:07,109
Brodean or Why am I blanking on their
captain right now?

928
00:46:07,509 --> 00:46:10,639
The other offensive defenseman from
Minnesota not Brodean

929
00:46:11,830 --> 00:46:15,290
Oh Jesus Christ, I can't even think of it
right now either.

930
00:46:15,490 --> 00:46:18,166
Minnesota, I forgot you're on NHL team for
a second.

931
00:46:19,374 --> 00:46:21,494
The...

932
00:46:21,494 --> 00:46:23,238
Oh my god.

933
00:46:24,545 --> 00:46:28,315
Anyways, whether he played with Brodean,
whether he played with him, who we can't

934
00:46:28,315 --> 00:46:35,535
name, him who we shall not name, he has
had that opportunity to play with an

935
00:46:35,535 --> 00:46:37,405
offensive minded defenseman.

936
00:46:37,405 --> 00:46:41,805
So he could actually be a sneaky perfect
partner for Riley.

937
00:46:42,305 --> 00:46:43,231
Right?

938
00:46:43,970 --> 00:46:46,690
Oh, he can for sure be had too.

939
00:46:46,770 --> 00:46:48,390
Jared Spurgeon.

940
00:46:49,890 --> 00:46:51,490
We're sorry buddy.

941
00:46:52,670 --> 00:46:54,704
It's not your fault you play Minnesota.

942
00:46:54,704 --> 00:46:58,644
when you type in the team in on Google,
you can hit like players just like on the

943
00:46:58,644 --> 00:46:59,014
quick thing.

944
00:46:59,014 --> 00:47:00,774
I figured, oh, they'll show up there.

945
00:47:00,774 --> 00:47:03,374
He doesn't even show up on this list.

946
00:47:03,594 --> 00:47:05,144
I'm looking at Zach Bogosian.

947
00:47:05,144 --> 00:47:13,464
The defensemen it shows are Brodean,
Faber, Bogosian, Merrill, and Murmus, and

948
00:47:13,464 --> 00:47:14,024
Jake Middleton.

949
00:47:14,024 --> 00:47:15,724
Like it literally doesn't show Spurgeon.

950
00:47:15,724 --> 00:47:16,814
Are you joking?

951
00:47:16,814 --> 00:47:17,539
So I was.

952
00:47:17,539 --> 00:47:17,872
now.

953
00:47:17,872 --> 00:47:21,522
know who would be the best D on this team
right now?

954
00:47:21,522 --> 00:47:23,142
This is Jake fucking Munson.

955
00:47:23,142 --> 00:47:25,002
Remember when we used to have him?

956
00:47:26,082 --> 00:47:30,462
The trajectory of this team would have
been so much different if he stayed

957
00:47:30,462 --> 00:47:31,214
healthy.

958
00:47:31,214 --> 00:47:33,714
if he didn't literally break his neck.

959
00:47:34,854 --> 00:47:35,814
Yeah.

960
00:47:36,254 --> 00:47:41,794
That guy got like absolutely shredded and
I feel so bad for his body.

961
00:47:42,014 --> 00:47:42,892
Ugh.

962
00:47:43,234 --> 00:47:46,284
If you could find someone who plays like
him, then...

963
00:47:46,284 --> 00:47:47,646
we're laughing.

964
00:47:47,726 --> 00:47:51,796
I mean, I feel like McCabe is kind of
getting towards that.

965
00:47:51,796 --> 00:47:53,506
Like, he's in that vein.

966
00:47:53,569 --> 00:47:55,099
He's like a muzzin light.

967
00:47:55,510 --> 00:47:56,940
got the shot here and there.

968
00:47:56,940 --> 00:47:58,090
He'll hit like that.

969
00:47:58,090 --> 00:47:59,610
His defensive play is pretty good.

970
00:47:59,610 --> 00:48:01,428
He's a muzzin light for sure.

971
00:48:01,550 --> 00:48:05,980
Oh my God, I did not notice until the the
announcers pointed out because we don't

972
00:48:05,980 --> 00:48:10,540
see Vegas that often, but they're like,
Shane's theater just fires pucks from the

973
00:48:10,540 --> 00:48:12,270
point nonstop for tips.

974
00:48:12,270 --> 00:48:14,430
And they pointed it out when they were on
the power play.

975
00:48:14,430 --> 00:48:20,300
He just all all he does when he has the
puck is in the exact same spot, just

976
00:48:20,300 --> 00:48:21,080
rifles it to the net.

977
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,800
I'm like, why don't we have somebody that
fucking does that?

978
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,474
That looks so easy.

979
00:48:25,026 --> 00:48:26,706
It was a pretty good play.

980
00:48:26,826 --> 00:48:28,146
Yeah, they had a...

981
00:48:28,146 --> 00:48:30,126
They were running that all night.

982
00:48:30,126 --> 00:48:31,206
Ugh.

983
00:48:31,546 --> 00:48:35,046
Okay, let's go to questions because we got
a couple of those.

984
00:48:35,106 --> 00:48:39,266
So from Mike the Fanatic, who's ready for
playoff officiating?

985
00:48:39,266 --> 00:48:40,162
Woo!

986
00:48:41,934 --> 00:48:45,636
Honestly, with this team, I think we're a
little bit better built for it.

987
00:48:47,007 --> 00:48:48,217
Are we though?

988
00:48:49,857 --> 00:48:52,867
the penalty even with this...

989
00:48:52,867 --> 00:48:53,843
yeah.

990
00:48:55,854 --> 00:48:58,014
Tonight's not a great example.

991
00:48:58,014 --> 00:48:59,528
Keith did get tossed.

992
00:48:59,528 --> 00:49:00,858
lately.

993
00:49:01,798 --> 00:49:02,640
So...

994
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,650
on Marner at the end was so bad.

995
00:49:05,650 --> 00:49:09,110
If anything, it was nice for slashing.

996
00:49:10,306 --> 00:49:15,966
If we're talking about like playoff PK,
I'm more worried about playoff power play

997
00:49:15,966 --> 00:49:17,166
to be quite honest with you.

998
00:49:17,166 --> 00:49:19,758
That's, that's what we have to turn around
this year.

999
00:49:19,758 --> 00:49:22,788
Yeah, because honestly, if Nylander is
going to be taking this many minutes on

1000
00:49:22,788 --> 00:49:27,188
the PK, like that's a nice addition to the
for playoffs this year that we didn't have

1001
00:49:27,188 --> 00:49:27,648
last year.

1002
00:49:27,648 --> 00:49:29,729
The dude's got two short handed goals
already.

1003
00:49:29,729 --> 00:49:33,009
Yeah, I was gonna say not only Nyland or
Matthews has been as well.

1004
00:49:33,009 --> 00:49:37,639
And then that can cut back, like nothing
against Camp, but that can cut back on

1005
00:49:37,639 --> 00:49:38,519
some of his ice time.

1006
00:49:38,519 --> 00:49:40,929
Like he's a great player as long as he's
utilized properly.

1007
00:49:40,929 --> 00:49:45,249
And I think he was overused on the penalty
kill.

1008
00:49:46,169 --> 00:49:50,009
And then it started to hinder his game in
other areas.

1009
00:49:50,829 --> 00:49:54,619
Like, realistically, I don't think we have
to worry about the big boys.

1010
00:49:54,619 --> 00:49:59,021
We need to worry about what everybody's
been talking about all year.

1011
00:49:59,329 --> 00:50:02,129
the consistency of the secondary scoring.

1012
00:50:03,149 --> 00:50:04,084
Like if we can...

1013
00:50:04,084 --> 00:50:04,934
the answer.

1014
00:50:05,314 --> 00:50:05,794
Go ahead.

1015
00:50:05,794 --> 00:50:09,704
if Bobby McMahon's gonna score here and
there and Bertuzzi's picking it up, not

1016
00:50:09,704 --> 00:50:12,944
that he's a second, he shouldn't be a
secondary scorer, but he basically is at

1017
00:50:12,944 --> 00:50:14,174
this point.

1018
00:50:14,354 --> 00:50:15,524
Holmberg has looked good.

1019
00:50:15,524 --> 00:50:20,614
I mean, there's some, it's starting to
come in, but like, eh, it's still not

1020
00:50:20,614 --> 00:50:21,640
where it needs to be.

1021
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:27,050
I feel like this team is more equipped to
handle playoff penalty kill just because

1022
00:50:27,050 --> 00:50:31,000
there's a lot more people doing it and a
lot more high -end skilled people doing

1023
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:31,753
it.

1024
00:50:31,753 --> 00:50:32,870
just want to see...

1025
00:50:32,870 --> 00:50:37,290
like, camp doesn't need to be out there
for 90 % of his minutes being against top

1026
00:50:37,290 --> 00:50:37,790
line players.

1027
00:50:37,790 --> 00:50:39,210
Like, that's kind of silly.

1028
00:50:39,361 --> 00:50:44,521
Yeah, I just like look at the most short
-handed goals in history.

1029
00:50:44,701 --> 00:50:48,941
Like some of the best players that have
ever played the game are up in that list.

1030
00:50:48,941 --> 00:50:54,301
Like the Mew I think is in the top five
all -time for short -handed goals.

1031
00:50:55,301 --> 00:51:00,901
Like you want your best players out there
at all times and Matthews and Marner,

1032
00:51:00,901 --> 00:51:04,841
Marner especially, because he's been doing
it for years, but this year Matthews is in

1033
00:51:04,841 --> 00:51:05,661
there too.

1034
00:51:05,661 --> 00:51:08,748
Like they are proving what?

1035
00:51:08,748 --> 00:51:12,958
Gretzky, Mark Messier, Steve Iserman,
Marielle Lemieux, guess who's number five?

1036
00:51:13,665 --> 00:51:14,675
Brad Marshall.

1037
00:51:14,798 --> 00:51:16,080
Dave Poulin.

1038
00:51:17,076 --> 00:51:19,106
Pooley.

1039
00:51:20,006 --> 00:51:20,966
Hmm.

1040
00:51:21,766 --> 00:51:25,386
But yeah, to be honest point, even if...

1041
00:51:25,386 --> 00:51:28,706
Because if you have a game where we're
just on the penalty kill all the time,

1042
00:51:28,706 --> 00:51:30,576
you're taking your top -line players out
of it.

1043
00:51:30,576 --> 00:51:33,436
They're out of the rhythm and everything,
so if they can kill a penalty here or

1044
00:51:33,436 --> 00:51:36,884
there, even half of one, they're way more
engaged in the game.

1045
00:51:37,377 --> 00:51:43,117
I'm just more worried about the entire
team playing as a team because we got so

1046
00:51:43,117 --> 00:51:47,607
far away from that at the beginning of
this season that it was embarrassing to

1047
00:51:47,607 --> 00:51:49,257
watch some of these games.

1048
00:51:49,257 --> 00:51:54,397
Like it truly was and as a Leaf fan we
haven't had to deal with that since you

1049
00:51:54,397 --> 00:51:55,977
know the tank years.

1050
00:51:56,417 --> 00:52:01,457
So that was a hard adjustment to get back
to because last year there was a lot more

1051
00:52:01,457 --> 00:52:04,997
focus on team defense and there's even
been some games this year I think it was

1052
00:52:04,997 --> 00:52:05,357
the St.

1053
00:52:05,357 --> 00:52:07,073
Louis game that

1054
00:52:07,073 --> 00:52:11,293
the Leafs just, it wasn't the prettiest
game in the world, but they played as a

1055
00:52:11,293 --> 00:52:11,503
team.

1056
00:52:11,503 --> 00:52:14,773
They can play with that structure, they've
shown it.

1057
00:52:14,853 --> 00:52:20,613
So this will be a really good test, seeing
this loss and seeing how they bounce back

1058
00:52:20,613 --> 00:52:23,907
to it, if they can get back to how they've
been playing the last handful of games.

1059
00:52:24,238 --> 00:52:26,898
Yeah, and there was like those three games
in a row where they kept their opponents

1060
00:52:26,898 --> 00:52:29,578
to under 20 shots or like around that.

1061
00:52:29,578 --> 00:52:32,558
I mean, that's something that we haven't
really seen this team be able to do.

1062
00:52:32,558 --> 00:52:36,646
So if they can keep something like that up
in the playoffs, like, yeah.

1063
00:52:38,286 --> 00:52:41,210
Team D, sorry, you're running for a sec.

1064
00:52:42,402 --> 00:52:43,242
One.

1065
00:52:43,246 --> 00:52:46,146
Okay, so fun fact on Brad Marshawn.

1066
00:52:46,146 --> 00:52:48,556
He has 35 short -handed goals.

1067
00:52:48,556 --> 00:52:52,346
That puts him four behind Dave Poulin and
a bunch of other people that are tied at

1068
00:52:52,346 --> 00:52:52,886
39.

1069
00:52:52,886 --> 00:52:56,286
He's the only active player who's anywhere
close to this record.

1070
00:52:56,286 --> 00:53:00,996
So he only needs five more and Brad
Marshawn will be the fifth all -time short

1071
00:53:00,996 --> 00:53:02,146
-handed goal scorer at 40.

1072
00:53:02,146 --> 00:53:03,726
That's crazy.

1073
00:53:04,031 --> 00:53:05,741
Mm -hmm.

1074
00:53:05,921 --> 00:53:07,122
I can't stand him.

1075
00:53:07,122 --> 00:53:12,042
I never pegged him for a shorthanded
wizard like that.

1076
00:53:12,142 --> 00:53:16,042
So the second half of Mike's thing here,
also can we please discuss the absolute

1077
00:53:16,042 --> 00:53:18,422
sack of shit human being that is Nick
Cousins?

1078
00:53:18,422 --> 00:53:20,960
Did you see this clip from the Buffalo,
Florida game?

1079
00:53:20,961 --> 00:53:21,929
I did.

1080
00:53:22,720 --> 00:53:29,730
So for any who didn't, Nick Cousins was
lying on the ground a la soccer mode with

1081
00:53:29,730 --> 00:53:33,490
his hands over his head like, I'm in pain.

1082
00:53:33,490 --> 00:53:38,320
And then as soon as the fight breaks out,
he jumps to his feet and grabs, who is

1083
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:39,790
this from behind?

1084
00:53:42,410 --> 00:53:43,670
Bryson, yeah.

1085
00:53:43,670 --> 00:53:48,250
Jumps at Bryson from behind, literally two
hands around the guy's neck, leaves his

1086
00:53:48,250 --> 00:53:48,890
feet.

1087
00:53:48,890 --> 00:53:52,398
The same dude who, this is a four second
long clip.

1088
00:53:52,398 --> 00:53:56,278
That's how long it takes him to go from
I'm hurt to I'm fighting someone.

1089
00:53:56,338 --> 00:53:57,278
Like, what?

1090
00:53:57,278 --> 00:54:00,618
Where did Nick Cousins come from on the
the hit list here?

1091
00:54:00,618 --> 00:54:06,508
Like, he was the top of the anonymous
voting for like, most punchable face in

1092
00:54:06,508 --> 00:54:07,108
the NHL.

1093
00:54:07,108 --> 00:54:09,918
Like, everyone in the league hates this
guy.

1094
00:54:11,201 --> 00:54:19,211
Well, it like, basically almost the whole
Panthers team got that not reputation, but

1095
00:54:19,211 --> 00:54:23,061
that kind of aura about them last year in
the playoffs.

1096
00:54:23,181 --> 00:54:29,021
And I don't know if it's Kachuk coming in,
because, you know, the Kachuk brothers

1097
00:54:29,021 --> 00:54:31,901
kind of have that way about them.

1098
00:54:31,901 --> 00:54:36,561
Like how many times has Brady been tossed
from a game at the end of the third period

1099
00:54:36,561 --> 00:54:39,502
this year because they've been losing and
he just loses his shit.

1100
00:54:39,502 --> 00:54:42,029
You fucking bit me, who bites?

1101
00:54:42,029 --> 00:54:50,809
Like, Cousins is just, he's Marchand
without the scoring ability.

1102
00:54:51,769 --> 00:54:55,149
Like really, he does all these stupid
little things.

1103
00:54:55,149 --> 00:54:56,669
Oh, you're muted, Suddy.

1104
00:54:56,929 --> 00:55:01,609
He does all these stupid little things
that just drive people insane, these dirty

1105
00:55:01,609 --> 00:55:06,339
plays, and then he gets up, like he's, you
know, thinks he's the big man on campus

1106
00:55:06,339 --> 00:55:07,119
still.

1107
00:55:08,130 --> 00:55:09,630
He's the biggest rat in the league.

1108
00:55:09,630 --> 00:55:11,050
This guy is such a piece of shit.

1109
00:55:11,050 --> 00:55:15,650
If you're going against him, all you do is
think about this motherfucker and like to

1110
00:55:15,650 --> 00:55:18,620
the detriment of your own play because he
gets in your head.

1111
00:55:18,620 --> 00:55:22,820
He's not nearly good enough that you
should be focusing this much on this

1112
00:55:22,820 --> 00:55:25,830
player, but he is such a rat.

1113
00:55:26,490 --> 00:55:31,530
He's such garbage that you can't help but
do it.

1114
00:55:31,690 --> 00:55:32,540
Oh God, man.

1115
00:55:32,540 --> 00:55:36,312
If you're, you're imagine the people who
actually have to play against this guy.

1116
00:55:36,312 --> 00:55:38,068
We're just

1117
00:55:38,068 --> 00:55:42,298
a guy on my team, it was exactly like
Cousins, and then we played an All -Star

1118
00:55:42,298 --> 00:55:46,648
game and like we all went in the dressing
room and everyone wanted to fight this

1119
00:55:46,648 --> 00:55:51,158
fucking guy just because he was such a
dirtbag and that's what Cousins is.

1120
00:55:51,158 --> 00:55:55,818
He will never answer the bill, but he will
pretend to be dead on the ice, the ref

1121
00:55:55,818 --> 00:56:00,388
turns his back and he'll jump you from
back like he's still in Cold Steve Austin

1122
00:56:00,388 --> 00:56:01,298
or something.

1123
00:56:01,298 --> 00:56:02,168
what we were just talking about.

1124
00:56:02,168 --> 00:56:06,628
I would jump Bryce into the Bruins game or
the Sabres game while he was like lying on

1125
00:56:06,628 --> 00:56:07,714
the ground like he's dead.

1126
00:56:07,714 --> 00:56:11,334
And like, I almost had to tip my hat on
because like the league hasn't had a rat

1127
00:56:11,334 --> 00:56:13,874
like this guy in a super long time.

1128
00:56:13,874 --> 00:56:19,224
He's Claude LeMou, like Claude LeMou
almost, but like with half the skill.

1129
00:56:19,224 --> 00:56:23,924
Yeah, it's weird in an era where it's not
commonplace and it's like, you're the only

1130
00:56:23,924 --> 00:56:26,314
one to see somebody do this.

1131
00:56:26,314 --> 00:56:28,314
Like you stick out, right?

1132
00:56:28,314 --> 00:56:31,294
Like it's anytime somebody takes us.

1133
00:56:31,934 --> 00:56:34,580
Yeah, there's always like a couple of
them, but the.

1134
00:56:34,580 --> 00:56:36,970
bell once in a while, this guy turtles.

1135
00:56:37,050 --> 00:56:38,650
So it even pushes him further.

1136
00:56:38,650 --> 00:56:42,346
Like he's, he's an unparalleled territory
right now.

1137
00:56:43,820 --> 00:56:48,390
Okay, we got fun guy South Park out
explain how we only got one partial power

1138
00:56:48,390 --> 00:56:55,060
play the whole game Yeah, the officiating
this game was very very very very bad Like

1139
00:56:55,060 --> 00:56:58,360
I don't know what happened and but near to
the bass and how I love how the refs work

1140
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:02,550
so hard even a makeup calls until the
Leafs are down in the third Yeah, everyone

1141
00:57:02,550 --> 00:57:05,630
was pretty pissed about the the calls

1142
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:07,390
Yeah, it wasn't great.

1143
00:57:07,390 --> 00:57:08,460
One point against the Leafs.

1144
00:57:08,460 --> 00:57:11,670
I feel like none of the players really
drew any penalties.

1145
00:57:11,670 --> 00:57:16,400
There was no opportunities for us to
really call one just with them moving

1146
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:17,790
their feet all the time.

1147
00:57:17,990 --> 00:57:21,998
But to your point, a lot of the calls
against the Leafs were pretty takey tack.

1148
00:57:21,998 --> 00:57:26,178
And it's the timing of them too, like five
minutes left in the game after a goal like

1149
00:57:26,178 --> 00:57:28,998
that, you're gonna call a penalty on the
team that's coming back.

1150
00:57:28,998 --> 00:57:32,854
Like it's just kind of against the
integrity of the league, you know?

1151
00:57:33,921 --> 00:57:37,921
The Leafs draw such an astronomically low
number of penalties compared to how much

1152
00:57:37,921 --> 00:57:41,547
puck possession they have, like it almost
doesn't make sense.

1153
00:57:41,842 --> 00:57:42,990
It doesn't.

1154
00:57:42,990 --> 00:57:46,870
Hey, they've had a couple five on threes
this year and they've scored on like all

1155
00:57:46,870 --> 00:57:47,406
of them.

1156
00:57:47,406 --> 00:57:52,206
how often Nylander, Matthews, Mara will go
around the offensive zone.

1157
00:57:52,206 --> 00:57:54,916
Like you think you would get a tripping
call, a hooking call, a holding or

1158
00:57:54,916 --> 00:57:55,846
something like that.

1159
00:57:55,846 --> 00:57:58,026
They just, they don't draw a ton of
penalties.

1160
00:57:58,026 --> 00:58:01,446
And the guy who actually has been doing it
lately is Bertuzzi.

1161
00:58:02,126 --> 00:58:03,600
And he didn't tonight.

1162
00:58:04,198 --> 00:58:05,638
Oh, sorry.

1163
00:58:06,318 --> 00:58:11,298
So one last thing I want to touch on
before we head out tonight, because I do

1164
00:58:11,298 --> 00:58:12,918
have to work early in the morning.

1165
00:58:13,178 --> 00:58:18,548
If you were to sell your likeness for a
video game that was going to be played

1166
00:58:18,548 --> 00:58:24,548
forever and ever, what would you expect to
be paid by a billion dollar corporation

1167
00:58:24,548 --> 00:58:27,240
for your likeness to be in said game?

1168
00:58:29,601 --> 00:58:32,892
I would be surprised to be paid at all if
I'm being completely honest.

1169
00:58:32,892 --> 00:58:34,158
how good I am.

1170
00:58:34,766 --> 00:58:39,056
Say you were an NHL player and you were
being put into an NHL game, what would you

1171
00:58:39,056 --> 00:58:42,682
expect to be compensated for them using
your likeness for said game?

1172
00:58:44,033 --> 00:58:49,323
I can't imagine it would be a lot because
you'd have the whole union and there's so

1173
00:58:49,323 --> 00:58:53,493
many players that the game couldn't
possibly afford to pay for that many.

1174
00:58:53,493 --> 00:58:55,417
I know where you're going with this,
but...

1175
00:58:56,118 --> 00:58:57,318
That's a pretty good question.

1176
00:58:57,318 --> 00:59:00,136
I couldn't even answer it.

1177
00:59:01,966 --> 00:59:10,186
I'm actually seeing if I can find what the
NHL games pay, but I don't know if you can

1178
00:59:10,186 --> 00:59:10,916
find that anywhere.

1179
00:59:10,916 --> 00:59:15,776
Anyway, the reason I bring this up is
because EA, who brought in $7 billion last

1180
00:59:15,776 --> 00:59:20,466
year, is bringing back their NCAA football
series.

1181
00:59:20,466 --> 00:59:25,086
And they have announced that for the first
time ever, they are offering the highest

1182
00:59:25,086 --> 00:59:29,102
payout for these athletes, which, if
you're not familiar,

1183
00:59:29,102 --> 00:59:31,842
They don't have that many opportunities to
be paid for anything.

1184
00:59:31,842 --> 00:59:36,252
So it's not hard to say that you're paying
them the most for a video game because I

1185
00:59:36,252 --> 00:59:39,592
think you're the only ones that ever have
because it's very new that they're able to

1186
00:59:39,592 --> 00:59:41,302
sell their likeness.

1187
00:59:41,882 --> 00:59:47,482
So EA said any of the 11000 players that
are part of the college system can opt

1188
00:59:47,482 --> 00:59:50,872
into the game and they will receive six
hundred dollars in a free copy of the

1189
00:59:50,872 --> 00:59:51,782
game.

1190
00:59:52,442 --> 00:59:57,352
Which equals if every single one of them,
let's call it six hundred and eighty

1191
00:59:57,352 --> 00:59:58,360
dollars.

1192
00:59:58,638 --> 01:00:01,578
times 11 ,000 players.

1193
01:00:01,578 --> 01:00:04,898
That is $7 million.

1194
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:10,990
Seven million.

1195
01:00:10,990 --> 01:00:12,760
I know exactly.

1196
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:13,610
That's the look.

1197
01:00:13,610 --> 01:00:15,340
It's yeah, it's a lot of players you got
to pay.

1198
01:00:15,340 --> 01:00:20,130
But when you actually do the math on it,
it's really not that much when this is a

1199
01:00:20,130 --> 01:00:22,060
company that brings in seven billion.

1200
01:00:22,060 --> 01:00:24,230
And this is NCAA football.

1201
01:00:24,230 --> 01:00:26,786
This game costs $80 at launch.

1202
01:00:26,786 --> 01:00:30,366
What if you're like Kayla Williams or like
Marvin Harrison Jr.

1203
01:00:30,366 --> 01:00:30,966
or something like that?

1204
01:00:30,966 --> 01:00:33,006
You're going to go top three in the
league.

1205
01:00:33,006 --> 01:00:34,772
In the draft, sorry.

1206
01:00:35,274 --> 01:00:36,604
apparently said go fuck yourself.

1207
01:00:36,604 --> 01:00:37,418
Like, I'm not doing that.

1208
01:00:37,418 --> 01:00:38,358
Yeah, of course you are.

1209
01:00:38,358 --> 01:00:43,558
600 bucks for your likeness for even like
one year's worth of play on the video game

1210
01:00:43,558 --> 01:00:44,718
is insane.

1211
01:00:44,718 --> 01:00:48,458
These guys get totally screwed on their
jersey sales.

1212
01:00:48,498 --> 01:00:52,318
These universities make so much money on
their likeness and they're just this is

1213
01:00:52,318 --> 01:00:55,398
another like brick on the wall for how
much they're getting screwed.

1214
01:00:55,398 --> 01:00:56,366
It's crazy.

1215
01:00:56,366 --> 01:01:00,566
Oh yeah, 500 ,000 copies of this game,
that's 40 million in revenue.

1216
01:01:01,326 --> 01:01:06,006
Like, you know, obviously before expenses
and things, but like this game is going to

1217
01:01:06,006 --> 01:01:07,066
make a shit ton of money.

1218
01:01:07,066 --> 01:01:09,566
Seven million is like a drop in the
bucket.

1219
01:01:09,566 --> 01:01:14,946
So for comparison, let's say what's a more
respectable, something that would help a

1220
01:01:14,946 --> 01:01:18,506
college per, like student and athlete.

1221
01:01:18,506 --> 01:01:21,066
Let's say it's two grand, okay.

1222
01:01:21,086 --> 01:01:24,566
Times 11 ,000 players.

1223
01:01:24,566 --> 01:01:24,782
If.

1224
01:01:24,782 --> 01:01:26,722
Every single one of them opted in.

1225
01:01:26,722 --> 01:01:28,662
That's twenty two million dollars.

1226
01:01:28,902 --> 01:01:34,302
The difference between that, like it's
just looks so much better to have

1227
01:01:34,302 --> 01:01:37,682
something that's like here's a month's
rent potentially.

1228
01:01:37,682 --> 01:01:39,022
And like, I mean, it's the states.

1229
01:01:39,022 --> 01:01:39,902
It's more than that.

1230
01:01:39,902 --> 01:01:40,602
Right.

1231
01:01:40,602 --> 01:01:44,122
In US dollars, that's substantial for
these guys.

1232
01:01:44,122 --> 01:01:48,762
Six hundred bucks for it just seems like a
slap in the face.

1233
01:01:48,762 --> 01:01:49,842
I don't know.

1234
01:01:49,842 --> 01:01:53,518
And to brag about it and try to make
yourself seem like you're

1235
01:01:53,518 --> 01:01:56,918
you're doing a great thing by offering
this to all these players.

1236
01:01:56,918 --> 01:02:00,768
It just seemed like a, you know, we're the
first ones, so we get to say we're the

1237
01:02:00,768 --> 01:02:01,572
best.

1238
01:02:02,049 --> 01:02:07,349
Now, I don't know, I don't follow NCAA
football at all.

1239
01:02:08,929 --> 01:02:10,949
Is there still...

1240
01:02:10,949 --> 01:02:14,639
Well yeah, that being said, I haven't
really followed CFL a lot this year

1241
01:02:14,639 --> 01:02:15,989
either.

1242
01:02:18,029 --> 01:02:21,969
Like, what are the rules with regards to
payment and reimbursement?

1243
01:02:21,969 --> 01:02:28,119
Because I know with, like say the CHL for
example, like, they, the players get paid

1244
01:02:28,119 --> 01:02:29,829
basically fuck all.

1245
01:02:30,469 --> 01:02:31,270
And...

1246
01:02:31,270 --> 01:02:31,837
I feel...

1247
01:02:31,837 --> 01:02:33,867
Like they're amateurs, right?

1248
01:02:33,867 --> 01:02:37,757
Like they're not professionals and some
people take that a little too literally

1249
01:02:37,757 --> 01:02:43,227
even the leagues themselves There's
restrictions as to how much they are

1250
01:02:43,227 --> 01:02:47,837
allowed to make for their likeness for
what they're doing, which is I'm not

1251
01:02:47,837 --> 01:02:49,433
saying it's right but

1252
01:02:51,873 --> 01:02:53,482
like those rules are in place.

1253
01:02:53,482 --> 01:02:55,422
on how much they can make.

1254
01:02:55,422 --> 01:02:57,730
NCAA earnings.

1255
01:02:57,730 --> 01:03:02,200
I feel like they can make endorsement
money off them, but they don't think they

1256
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:06,360
get anything off Jersey sales off any of
their likeness for their own teams and

1257
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:07,010
stuff like that.

1258
01:03:07,010 --> 01:03:10,830
If like, if they get sponsored by the
company, they can make money that way.

1259
01:03:10,830 --> 01:03:13,236
But other than that, I don't know if they
actually do.

1260
01:03:13,870 --> 01:03:18,790
So it says, a thick portion of the
rulebook that governs amateurism and

1261
01:03:18,790 --> 01:03:22,880
athletics eligibility will not be enforced
if a student receives payment in exchange

1262
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:27,850
for the use of the athlete's name, image,
or likeness, also known as NIL.

1263
01:03:28,530 --> 01:03:32,870
The NCAA also agrees to allow athletes to
have representation in connection with

1264
01:03:32,870 --> 01:03:33,680
their NIL activity.

1265
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:35,550
So it doesn't seem like there's a cap on
it.

1266
01:03:35,550 --> 01:03:38,520
They're just saying, like, this is now,
like, we're handing this over to you guys.

1267
01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:41,082
We're not going to regulate that at all.

1268
01:03:43,584 --> 01:03:47,294
The whole thing is weird, like even for
like OHL, like you said, CHL players, that

1269
01:03:47,294 --> 01:03:51,594
the discrepancy for the amount of money
these owners and everyone makes off their

1270
01:03:51,594 --> 01:03:54,060
backs, they get nothing in return.

1271
01:03:55,470 --> 01:03:58,650
I want to see here.

1272
01:03:59,470 --> 01:04:06,740
Yeah, here Madden NFL 24 nearly a million
dollars revenue achieved in first week on

1273
01:04:06,740 --> 01:04:07,790
steam.

1274
01:04:08,150 --> 01:04:13,570
So that's just PC that's not even
including consoles.

1275
01:04:15,508 --> 01:04:20,778
But a number of Madden NFL 24 copies sold
during the same period was equally notable

1276
01:04:20,778 --> 01:04:23,858
nearly 20 ,000 copies finding their way in
the hands of players.

1277
01:04:23,858 --> 01:04:26,694
So there they make a shit ton of money off
of this.

1278
01:04:27,362 --> 01:04:31,302
Yeah, if I were like a college player and
you're offering me 600 bucks and I'm going

1279
01:04:31,302 --> 01:04:35,202
to go in the top in the number like the
first, you know, first round draft pick,

1280
01:04:35,202 --> 01:04:37,006
there's no way I'm saying yes to it.

1281
01:04:37,006 --> 01:04:40,606
especially with how big college sports are
and EA is trying to make this big return

1282
01:04:40,606 --> 01:04:41,006
to it.

1283
01:04:41,006 --> 01:04:45,586
Like put some money behind your words, you
know.

1284
01:04:46,446 --> 01:04:48,946
Again, it doesn't even have to be two
grand.

1285
01:04:48,966 --> 01:04:52,646
Like it's just fuck even $1500.

1286
01:04:52,646 --> 01:04:53,606
That's 16 million.

1287
01:04:53,606 --> 01:04:54,326
They could do that.

1288
01:04:54,326 --> 01:04:56,326
They're going to make all that back in
microtransaction.

1289
01:04:56,326 --> 01:04:59,426
And again, this is every single player
gets into it.

1290
01:04:59,426 --> 01:05:02,338
Anyway, I just want to talk about this
because I think it's kind of crazy that.

1291
01:05:02,338 --> 01:05:05,468
I love how like the fourth running back on
some team is making the same amount of

1292
01:05:05,468 --> 01:05:05,718
money.

1293
01:05:05,718 --> 01:05:07,596
It's like the Heisman Trophy winner.

1294
01:05:07,596 --> 01:05:07,996
exactly.

1295
01:05:07,996 --> 01:05:12,116
Like, it just seems like there's no
thought put into it other than like, oh,

1296
01:05:12,116 --> 01:05:13,706
we're just offering this to college
athletes.

1297
01:05:13,706 --> 01:05:18,346
It's like, well, you're kind of devaluing
them each individually by doing that.

1298
01:05:20,010 --> 01:05:25,440
Especially if they have representation
looking after their NIL rights, like their

1299
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:28,080
agents gonna say no, no, we're not taking
that.

1300
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:32,140
Like if they're top people, they're gonna
say no, we're in commercials for like six

1301
01:05:32,140 --> 01:05:32,480
figures.

1302
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:33,934
I'm not doing that.

1303
01:05:34,442 --> 01:05:36,760
working with Gatorade next weekend, like
are you joking?

1304
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,450
we got BioSteel and Prime.

1305
01:05:38,450 --> 01:05:39,622
Get out of here.

1306
01:05:39,905 --> 01:05:41,807
It's definitely not bio steel.

1307
01:05:42,062 --> 01:05:45,622
Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

1308
01:05:46,002 --> 01:05:49,292
But there's still, I still see the bottles
behind the benches.

1309
01:05:49,292 --> 01:05:51,682
Are they just like holding on to empties?

1310
01:05:51,682 --> 01:05:53,672
Because they're collectibles now?

1311
01:05:53,889 --> 01:05:57,289
Well, I think the product's still out
there, but the company's going under.

1312
01:05:57,289 --> 01:05:58,321
Are they not?

1313
01:05:58,958 --> 01:06:05,458
They're owned by Canna whatever.

1314
01:06:06,578 --> 01:06:08,858
No, Canopy Growth.

1315
01:06:09,778 --> 01:06:17,098
But Mike, he's the founder of it, but
they're owned by Canopy Growth, the grow

1316
01:06:17,098 --> 01:06:17,752
up.

1317
01:06:19,630 --> 01:06:23,870
Yeah, yeah, my Camelari in 2009.

1318
01:06:23,870 --> 01:06:29,170
In 2010, Gary Roberts reported that ice
hockey players were drinking bio steel.

1319
01:06:29,250 --> 01:06:30,910
There it is.

1320
01:06:31,050 --> 01:06:32,560
They got Gary to say it.

1321
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:40,230
And then 2019 canopy growth acquired 72 %
of it with plans to infuse can can a bit

1322
01:06:40,230 --> 01:06:43,540
cannabidiol infused bio steel on the
market.

1323
01:06:43,540 --> 01:06:46,610
And then that just didn't happen.

1324
01:06:47,050 --> 01:06:47,370
Yeah.

1325
01:06:47,370 --> 01:06:49,070
And they filed for bankruptcy in
September.

1326
01:06:49,070 --> 01:06:53,790
and they owe the NHL and a bunch of teams
a lot of money.

1327
01:06:55,550 --> 01:06:56,370
Yeah.

1328
01:06:56,830 --> 01:06:58,150
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1329
01:06:58,410 --> 01:07:00,670
So that ended.

1330
01:07:01,050 --> 01:07:03,400
I did want to talk about the enhanced
games, but we could do that next time

1331
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,190
because that's not happening until
December.

1332
01:07:05,190 --> 01:07:06,350
But that's a thing.

1333
01:07:06,350 --> 01:07:09,810
So if anyone wants to send in questions or
anything about that.

1334
01:07:09,810 --> 01:07:13,156
Also, Mikey D, what's your hype level for
GTA 6?

1335
01:07:15,746 --> 01:07:20,166
I saw the trailers when they first came
out and I was super excited about it and

1336
01:07:20,166 --> 01:07:25,518
then it said like 2025 so I didn't really
give a fuck until maybe the winter.

1337
01:07:25,518 --> 01:07:30,608
See, I am kind of excited because I just
watched the trailer again last night

1338
01:07:30,608 --> 01:07:34,538
actually because I was testing out a new
video thing on my laptop.

1339
01:07:35,018 --> 01:07:39,038
But I have not got a PS5 yet.

1340
01:07:39,038 --> 01:07:43,258
So the fact that it's not coming out till
next year, I might like wait to see if it

1341
01:07:43,258 --> 01:07:47,458
comes out on like the next gen console and
I can kind of skip getting a five.

1342
01:07:47,458 --> 01:07:52,978
So the timing is nice for me, but I do get
that it's been since 2013 since five came

1343
01:07:52,978 --> 01:07:53,680
out.

1344
01:07:54,072 --> 01:07:59,122
I'm looking forward to the actual story
mode of it.

1345
01:07:59,162 --> 01:08:01,722
Five was really fun, switching between
people.

1346
01:08:01,722 --> 01:08:03,572
Justin, did you play GTA V?

1347
01:08:04,737 --> 01:08:07,135
I think the last one I played was Vice
City.

1348
01:08:07,598 --> 01:08:10,078
Well, this one's going back to Vice City.

1349
01:08:11,398 --> 01:08:14,178
Six is...

1350
01:08:14,178 --> 01:08:15,728
Vice City was the first one I played.

1351
01:08:15,728 --> 01:08:18,528
Well, actually I played one and two, but I
didn't know that they were Grand Theft

1352
01:08:18,528 --> 01:08:20,968
Auto games because they're so much
different.

1353
01:08:22,177 --> 01:08:24,517
or Andreas, wasn't that after Vice City?

1354
01:08:25,277 --> 01:08:26,287
Oh, okay.

1355
01:08:26,490 --> 01:08:28,710
I think it's the next one after that.

1356
01:08:28,930 --> 01:08:32,650
But yeah, it's cool because 6 is VI, so
it's vice.

1357
01:08:33,330 --> 01:08:34,190
Yeah.

1358
01:08:34,190 --> 01:08:35,730
Going back to Vice City.

1359
01:08:35,937 --> 01:08:45,887
I have a kid, so my amount of time to play
these games, especially games that he

1360
01:08:45,887 --> 01:08:49,497
cannot be awake while I play them, is very
limited.

1361
01:08:49,517 --> 01:08:57,611
So I see about a 0 .4 % chance that I ever
play a minute of this game.

1362
01:08:57,742 --> 01:08:58,822
Fair enough.

1363
01:08:59,222 --> 01:09:03,572
The only thing that I really am looking
forward to is the fact that it's resetting

1364
01:09:03,572 --> 01:09:04,782
the online world.

1365
01:09:04,782 --> 01:09:10,902
If anybody played five, the longer a game
is out, the more the in -game economy gets

1366
01:09:10,902 --> 01:09:12,162
broken.

1367
01:09:12,162 --> 01:09:13,962
So that game's been out since 2013.

1368
01:09:13,962 --> 01:09:18,182
So imagine a world where everybody gets to
rob a bank every day and there's no

1369
01:09:18,182 --> 01:09:22,062
repercussions for it and the money just
infinitely replenishes.

1370
01:09:22,842 --> 01:09:26,092
When the game came out, you could buy
like, you go on your phone, you can buy

1371
01:09:26,092 --> 01:09:26,682
like cars.

1372
01:09:26,682 --> 01:09:27,510
The cars were like,

1373
01:09:27,510 --> 01:09:30,550
you know, 12 ,000 or 30 ,000 or 50 ,000.

1374
01:09:30,550 --> 01:09:37,530
Those cars now are like $600 million to
buy because the inflation is just

1375
01:09:37,530 --> 01:09:38,890
absolutely fucked.

1376
01:09:38,890 --> 01:09:43,490
Like the game has just been out too long
and there's too much money in circulation

1377
01:09:43,490 --> 01:09:44,630
in the game.

1378
01:09:44,630 --> 01:09:45,577
So the fact that they're...

1379
01:09:45,577 --> 01:09:47,831
affected a fictional economy.

1380
01:09:49,505 --> 01:09:51,159
Jesus Christ.

1381
01:09:51,350 --> 01:09:51,980
my God.

1382
01:09:51,980 --> 01:09:57,810
So the fact that, the fact that they're
resetting it for, well, I'm hoping they

1383
01:09:57,810 --> 01:10:01,220
don't just continue GTA online and they do
a new one.

1384
01:10:01,220 --> 01:10:01,890
Oh God.

1385
01:10:01,890 --> 01:10:03,170
I didn't even think of that.

1386
01:10:03,170 --> 01:10:06,890
But yeah, that needs to be reset because
it's gotten out of hand.

1387
01:10:07,426 --> 01:10:10,050
Oh yeah, you got to go back from zero.

1388
01:10:10,050 --> 01:10:13,250
There's also like people it's so
inaccessible for new players because it's

1389
01:10:13,250 --> 01:10:16,020
been out so long everyone's just flying
around with rocket launchers It's like

1390
01:10:16,020 --> 01:10:22,900
well, I can't I can't do anything because
I'm just getting killed so Yeah, I'm

1391
01:10:22,900 --> 01:10:24,220
excited for GTA 6 Mikey.

1392
01:10:24,220 --> 01:10:32,690
That's my short answer But with that I
think yeah, I think we're we're outie

1393
01:10:32,690 --> 01:10:33,898
anybody got anything

1394
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:39,570
Nope, the world is not collapsing after
this one loss.

1395
01:10:39,570 --> 01:10:43,822
We're going to go on to Arizona on
Thursday and let's see how we respond.

1396
01:10:43,822 --> 01:10:46,167
Oh my God, it's Arizona again, at home.

1397
01:10:46,167 --> 01:10:49,977
out to Toronto and the PWHL.

1398
01:10:50,257 --> 01:10:52,797
Nice overtime win tonight over Minnesota.

1399
01:10:53,197 --> 01:10:58,137
After a slow start to the season, they've
clawed their way up to third in the

1400
01:10:58,137 --> 01:10:58,997
league.

1401
01:11:00,782 --> 01:11:01,822
Nice.

1402
01:11:02,242 --> 01:11:06,762
Sorry, I'm just pulling up the Arizona
Coyotes record at Toronto.

1403
01:11:07,602 --> 01:11:09,282
It's not good.

1404
01:11:09,302 --> 01:11:12,522
I mean, the Arizona Coyotes record is
quite good.

1405
01:11:12,922 --> 01:11:13,506
Yeah.

1406
01:11:13,506 --> 01:11:15,502
Yeah, it's not good for Leafs.

1407
01:11:15,502 --> 01:11:21,882
The 2020 was the last time they lost to
the Leafs at home.

1408
01:11:22,562 --> 01:11:23,982
Again, Toronto.

1409
01:11:25,022 --> 01:11:25,766
Fuck.

1410
01:11:26,178 --> 01:11:27,630
We turn it around this Thursday.

1411
01:11:27,630 --> 01:11:29,490
I hope so.

1412
01:11:29,650 --> 01:11:30,662
Oh my god.

1413
01:11:31,361 --> 01:11:32,151
we touched on it.

1414
01:11:32,151 --> 01:11:35,761
That'll be a good test for the Leafs
because like everybody always says the

1415
01:11:35,761 --> 01:11:37,941
good teams bounce back.

1416
01:11:37,941 --> 01:11:40,441
They have one of these games and then they
come back.

1417
01:11:40,441 --> 01:11:43,441
And what does Toronto typically do against
bottom feeders?

1418
01:11:43,441 --> 01:11:44,761
Shit the bet.

1419
01:11:45,681 --> 01:11:50,141
So, you know, you could silence or slay
two dragons almost with this.

1420
01:11:50,141 --> 01:11:51,941
You bounce back properly.

1421
01:11:51,941 --> 01:11:54,201
You win the game against a bottom feeder.

1422
01:11:54,321 --> 01:11:56,999
Matt Dumba can just switch locker rooms at
the end of the game.

1423
01:11:57,166 --> 01:11:58,486
Hahaha.

1424
01:12:00,302 --> 01:12:00,801
Oh man.

1425
01:12:00,801 --> 01:12:01,849
You

1426
01:12:03,060 --> 01:12:07,074
The trainer just walks out and carries his
bag over and you're with us now.

1427
01:12:10,305 --> 01:12:14,587
Who was it, Alex Nylander, that just did
that, from Pittsburgh to Columbus?

1428
01:12:15,042 --> 01:12:16,052
He did.

1429
01:12:16,374 --> 01:12:19,270
Oh true, I guess that was just switching
planes, eh?

1430
01:12:19,270 --> 01:12:20,964
business and yeah.

1431
01:12:23,201 --> 01:12:28,001
By the way, shout out to all the NHL GMs
who continue to troll Dubus by picking up

1432
01:12:28,001 --> 01:12:30,079
any player he puts on waivers.

1433
01:12:30,754 --> 01:12:31,822
You

1434
01:12:31,822 --> 01:12:33,192
Who was it this time?

1435
01:12:33,331 --> 01:12:36,131
I, um, Colin White, right?

1436
01:12:36,131 --> 01:12:38,861
Ottawa picked him, or not Ottawa, Montreal
picked him up.

1437
01:12:38,861 --> 01:12:42,261
Like, the Leafs had Jones clear.

1438
01:12:43,201 --> 01:12:43,721
Right?

1439
01:12:43,721 --> 01:12:45,252
The Leafs had Jones clear.

1440
01:12:45,252 --> 01:12:46,602
doesn't get picked up.

1441
01:12:46,602 --> 01:12:46,958
Yeah.

1442
01:12:46,958 --> 01:12:49,164
legend Colin White, yeah.

1443
01:12:52,034 --> 01:12:53,358
Sucks to be doobus.

1444
01:12:53,358 --> 01:12:53,928
Wild.

1445
01:12:53,928 --> 01:12:54,418
Ugh.

1446
01:12:54,418 --> 01:12:55,238
Okay.

1447
01:12:55,238 --> 01:12:55,918
We out.

1448
01:12:55,918 --> 01:12:57,198
Thanks guys.

1449
01:12:57,198 --> 01:12:58,278
Tune in next time.

1450
01:12:58,278 --> 01:13:01,024
We'll hopefully be here very soon.

1451
01:13:01,696 --> 01:13:02,514
Yeah.

1452
01:13:02,953 --> 01:13:04,622
Thursday.

1453
01:13:04,622 --> 01:13:06,122
No problem.

1454
01:13:28,366 --> 01:13:30,826
Sorry that was fucking loud.
