And now we go to the great Shannon Goldman from the Too Many Men podcast and the athletic who joins us now.

When does summer actually start for you? Why can't you just like hang out with your dogs by the pool? I mean, I've already been doing that. Listen, I brought my laptop out with me every single day and I wear my stupid apple watch by the pool so I can get pinged and know when I have to like run to the computer and then I can get back in. So how many how many of those how many of those like signing evaluations did you do poolside with the pooches? Be honest. Um none yesterday. Yesterday was know, we're focusing, we're working. The day before I did Ekblad and Bouchard at home and then Marner in between doing that and Marner.

Marner, I was sitting in like a lounge chair by the pool doing it. It's a nice life, eh? It's a beautiful. It's not bad. I have no complaints. Like, listen, I sit in front of a screen for so many hours that once in a while I need to sit out and get some sunlight. But I do I do work outside a lot during the day because I'm not like, I don't like writing during the day. I like writing at night. So if I am going to do it during the day, I like to be

outside. I love it. You know, just talking to Jonah Siegel, one of your colleagues at the athletic about the, the Marner shock to Maple Leafs fans eyeballs, even though everyone saw this one coming a mile away. Give us like a hot 60 seconds on your thoughts on Marner becoming a Vegas Golden Knight. And we kind of bled it into the conversation about the Selkie trophy,

but your thoughts on Marner in Vegas. I love it. Listen, I've been begging for a Mitch Marner heel turn for years because I think everyone is so mean to him and so overdramatic about everything he does. And I get it. That's the consequence of making almost $11 million. And that's the consequence of being a Toronto Maple Leaf

and being a superstar in this league and all of this and more, but it's been so overblown. So if you're going to go anywhere and be a heel to the Leafs it's it would be the Montreal Canadiens or the Vegas Golden Knights because you know like they're like the bad boys of the NHL. They're the ultimate villain team. Oh you know what though I would have thought you know what you know what would have been the ultimate would have been Florida though like honestly. Oh yeah you know what that's even better that is so much better but then like I know

Leafs fans would have turned it like, Oh, well, if you had Mitch Marner on your side, then we would have beaten you in seven in this revisionist history that would never happen. It's a very, very good point. Um, the biggest beneficiary here maybe of the Mitch Marner heel turn might just be Jack Eichel who's going into a contract year as well. And now all of a sudden he has one of the most gifted playmakers. I'm assuming he's going to play with Mitch Marner.

All of a sudden you have Jack Eichel and you have Mitch Marner feeding him grapes. 82 games. Soon to be 84, but for now 82 games. A season here, I know, I shake my head at that too. More on that later. Jack Eichel is the biggest beneficiary of this other than Mitch Marner's accountant that is. I'm going to disagree. Oh, do it. I'm going to disagree. Okay. I think Jack Eichel is going to benefit from from this.

Absolutely. Right. Because you kind of look at what happened in that Connor McDavid matchup and it's not going to happen often to him. Right. He can go up against top competition and I think just crush them themselves and it's no big deal, whatever. And when you have McDavid, you're going to need those extra reinforcements on his line and he got that in William Carlson. I think Mark Stone is the best beneficiary here because Mark Stone, he's one of my favorite players in the league, right? Love the enthusiasm, love the way he plays.

He's so pesky, he's so disruptive and he does it without necessarily being like the fastest skater in the world too. Like he's such a smart guy But the reality is You know an 82 game season is a lot of wear and tear a lot of deep playoff runs So that's a lot of wear and tear and he's aging So I think if you have someone that can shoulder a little bit more of the burden I wonder if that will help him, you know age a little more gracefully and help him in the long run I think if Marner's the number one winger and now you have Mark Stone as your number two at this point in his career,

and he still has ways to go obviously, but he's dealt with a lot of injuries and a lot of back issues, I think you're in a great position. You know, I was talking to Jonas a second ago, and we're just focusing on Eichel and Marner and saying, you know, two Selkie Trophy candidates, and completely forgot that you gotta throw Mark Stone in that conversation too. Another Selkie winger. Who probably should have won one by now. So here's the question that I'll put to you that I put to Jonas. You think of all the individual trophies, okay? The Heart Trophy, the Selkie Trophy, the Norris Trophy, the Rocket Richard, the Art Ross, all these awards and trophies. Is there one player, like think of a Selkie player, think of a Norris player, think of a Hart player.

Is there one player attached to a trophy that you should never trade? I know we'll always think Hart and Norris certainly because Big Time D are hard to find, but whether it's Patrice Bergeron or Alexander Barkov or Anjay Kopitar or Jonathan Taves, I could make the case for Selkie. Like when you have someone like that in your lineup, man, hold that player sacred. Hold that player sacred. What would you answer? Okay.

I'm going to, I'm going to go differently. I think the Selkie's a good one. Do you want to go out for a walk around the pool with the pooch and think about this one for a second? Listen, don't tell me what the good time. Okay, I think the selkies a good one But I also think you can kind of split up that role and I think too with selkie conversations like you can have those guys Who are never gonna win it in this day and age, right? Because in the scoring and and the top here minutes kind of like lead the way in the conversation sometimes so guys like Jarvis are never gonna win it because he's a winger or someone like Adam

Lowry isn't gonna get the hype because he's a 3c and you can split up those matchups between shy flee and him now and They're both going up against top competition. So I think that one you can break down in different ways to fill that spot I'm gonna go Norris because I, I think defensemen are so important on both ends of the ice, especially the new way you have to think about defense and not just defense in suppressing chances, chances, but extending offensive zone time or stopping something from happening in the first place. I think those are harder to come by. I think defensemen can get very over and underrated. I also think that we know it can be really hard to find defensemen. Right. If you don't draft in and develop someone, you may never have

that true number one defenseman. They don't make it free agency. And when they do, they're going to make more than a pretty penny. So I'm going to say that is tougher to replace than a Salke guy. But I think it's really tight. There is another way to get a number one defenseman and you know it. Oh yeah, the Montreal Canadiens just managed to get one from the Islanders. Just hope that a team undervalues that player. There's that, and I'm sure there's a backstory there that eventually we're all going to figure out and find out. You draft their brother.

You draft their brother and eventually they'll want to go play with their bro. There you go. That's the way you do it. Speaking of defenders, I'm trying I'm trying really hard not to just pound on the LA Kings but I gotta ask. Oh don't don't don't waste your breath just just pound on them they deserve it. Okay here we go. If I propose to you a trade that looked like this Vladislav Gavrikov and Jordan Spence in exchange for Cody Cece and Brian Dumalin what would you say? It's a horrible offense. That's what happened. Yeah that is bad business because you combine the cap hits for Dumalin and CC and you could

have an overpaid Gavrikov who you know is a legitimate top for defenseman that can go up against top competition and do it quite well in LA. And I keep trying to find ways to give the Kings an ounce of slack because I know I've been tough on them, right? And I'm going, well, maybe they think this can be their third pair. Okay, then why are you paying all of this money and committing this many years to third pair guys, right? Especially when you don't have enough pop and upside elsewhere on this blue line besides Brandt-Clark now because you got rid of Spence. Why would you want that to be your third pair instead of sheltered guys who can add a little bit of offense

and help Drive play a little bit more with the third pair? Then you say, okay, well, they don't have to play matchup minutes because Drew Doughty's going to. Well, Drew Doughty's aging, and at a certain point, you're going to want to take a little bit off his plate and split that between the top four, which is what they've been doing. Well, you can't do that. Duhamelin's not fit for these minutes, neither is Cody Cece.

Their numbers are always going to look worse because they play that tough matchup minutes. But even when you factor in the context, what in your right mind would say, yes, that is what we need. They now have three because you include Joel Edmondson. They have three one dimensional defensemen that have made this team older and slower. That's not how you beat the Oilers. And you can't just only gear your team up for the Oilers, but that's not how you beat the Oilers. And you can't just only gear your team up for the Oilers. But that's not how you beat the best contenders in a speed and skill game. Especially when you're a team that doesn't get enough offense in the first place, right? So we can all say, well, the Kings have so much structure and the systems are so good, but the players help you maintain that system and that structure. And now you just blew up your blue line and dragged it back 10 years. I don't know what they're thinking.

When you said beat the Oilers, I do have to ask because now all of a sudden things are becoming more expensive for Edmonton, whether it's Tricell's contract and now Bouchard's contract, which is a 10.5 on the AAV and they sign Andrew Mangiapani. And I know everyone's looking back and saying, he scored 35 goals once upon a time. Andrew Mangiapani and I know everyone's looking back and saying he scored 35 goals once upon a time once and generally he's 15 goal scorer as we've seen throughout the the career 3.6 is the AAV there and there's still no change in net. I should have prefaced all this entire conversation by saying you know generally I try to wait until the end of the summer to see the full body of work until I judge it. So even if it's Ken Holland and the Los Angeles Kings, as bleak as it may look right now, there's

part of me that says don't judge it yet. As bleak as things look with the Buffalo Sabres and their horrible, horrible asset management over and over and over again and we saw it again yesterday and we saw it by, you know, not qualifying Jacob Bernard Docker, who was once upon a time a key piece of a trade where they traded for a lesser and often injured center and gave up a really good center, the Ottawa senators and looked at it and said, well, don't forget, we got Bernard Docker in this.

And then he was not even qualified and they had to attach a second round pick to get rid of a player and a salary. Even then, I still say, just wait until the summer is over. But how are you feeling about the Edmonton Oilers right now? I agree. We have to wait until the summer's over. But I also think we can talk shit about them and bully them as much as we want until they fix their mistakes. OK, the Oilers are a tough one for me. I think that they're clearing out caps based on the wings, which is important. I thought Arvidsson on paper was going to be a perfect fit for Leandro Settle. It didn't happen. Okay, sure. They managed to

clear out of Andrew Keynes cap and full. I think that's a good move too. Obviously, now you have to replace those players. I like the addition of Andrew Mangiapani, but I'm still going, okay, and next, like what are you going to do next? What other? Offensive threats are gonna bring him because I think Mangiapani is a good player like I know he hasn't brought it on the Scoresheet consistently enough, but I think he has a lot of speed and some two-way strengths which is which is a good thing to have in this middle six if you can attach him to someone strong and The one for me though is Connor

Brown on top of it. I actually really like Connor Brown and Edmonton. I think the devil's got a great player. I think you're finally seeing him get back to get back up to speed. You know, it took him a long time to come back from his injury. And I think we forget how long these timelines are not just to come back to the lineup, but be at full strength. So that's a huge loss. But I think it's a it's an okay enough start. They didn't overspend anywhere yet. They didn't do anything ridiculous where you go, oh my God, you're just hamstringing yourself some more, right? But you need to find cheap forwards now to fill up that lineup and that's going to be really tough. And then there's the goaltending part of it all. I think it's a good thing they did not spend

on any of those free agents because I don't think any of those free agents are better than what they have and what they have is not very good. I think they need to get really creative on the trade market and look for their version of McKenzie Blackwood, right? Where it's someone maybe on a bad team who's super inexpensive and they just need a new opportunity or a Shilafs or that there's a team with now a potential three goalie situation, try to benefit from that. I think the trade market's their best route there, but I don't have faith in a Stan Bowman led team To do this the right way I don't think even if you take all the baggage out of the picture, right? But even if we do all that at the end of the day, I don't think he's a very good modern-day general manager

Like I think it's going to be, you know, a three goalie situation where they're worried about losing a goaltender on waivers and that is Vancouver. And that's Arthur Shilovs. Here's the name that I wonder about here. Tristan Jarre. And Tristan Jarre is well known in Edmonton. He plays junior hockey

with the Oil Kings. Tristan Jarre's career has really been like roller skating down a gravel road in Pittsburgh. I do wonder if this is the needs the change of scenery trade and can change him around depending on who the goalie coach ends up being with the Edmonds and Oilers. With that- I hope you're getting 50% salary retention for the next three years because otherwise, three years you're committing. All I'm saying is, I know they just traded in Dalcovich as well, but Blomquist is going to be the the goaltender there. I wonder if it ends up being Tristan Jarre. Because otherwise, like scour the NHL, like where are these goalies going to come from? There's not like a dozen goaltenders locked in a closet like, okay, who can find the key

so all these teams that need goaltenders can finally get one. Like all of a sudden, you can count on one hand the amount of like elite level goaltenders there are in the NHL, and then there's a bunch of ones that are just like, okay, it's kind of like coaches. Like I kind of think that there's like five or six really good and then there's a bunch of ones that are just like okay it's kind of like coaches like I kind of think that there's like five or six really good ones and then a bunch of ones that are just okay yeah they're good okay they're good coaches and I kind of feel that way about goaltenders in the NHL right now there's five or six that are super elite and there's everybody else. Yeah you have your elite elite starters you have your bona fide number ones that you're below and then you have your 1A's and 1B's. One team that's kind of interesting to me on the goalie front is going to be the Hurricanes

getting Caden Primo and I know his stock has seriously dropped since his original value in Montreal. But I look at someone like Kochakov and I am kind of curious, are they aiming for one more year of Anderson and then going Kochakov and Primo? If that's the idea? Then they're out of it, but I would be a little bit curious there But then again the part with like a goalie like Kochev It's it's right and wrong for all their like all these weird reasons for the oilers because they just

Crave someone chaotic in net and I know they're saying like Calvin Pickard's such a calming presence in the room and on the ice that might be true but the way he plays is not calming. Care that with Stuart Skinner. No it's ball hockey it's ball hockey it's a little ball hockey. Yeah it's it's a ball checkoff's an interesting one I've always loved them but then I love that kind of style of goaltender anyhow. Here's the thing about it. I'd love to watch it wouldn't want it on my table. It's fantastic to watch and that's why they keep going back to Freddie Anderson on evergreen deals. One year, one year, one year, one year, one year, one year. Like Freddie's gonna be there,

seemingly forever just on this evergreen package that he has. Speaking of Carolina, what'd you make of the Kay Andre Miller trade with the New York Rangers? It's one of these rare deals I really like for both sides. Start with the New York Rangers. It's one of these rare deals I really like for both sides. Start with the Canes. I think that the Canes have a knack for maximizing defensemen within their system.

They have done it time and time again. They fix Brent Burns back up. They did it with Dougie Hamilton. They did it with Tony D'Angelo. I mean, come on, like this is what they do. Brady Shea, keep going. Yeah. And look at Brady Shea once he leaves the Canes.

It's like the perfect example. Brad Pesci, keep going. Yeah. And look at British once he leaves the Canes. I know it's like the perfect example. So I guess you keep going. Keep going. There's another. It keeps going. Walker, Shane got three. Look at them on the third pair. You know, like these are guys, they know how to plug them in and they know how to get the best out of them. And I think that Kendra Miller has all of these raw tools and raw skills to become that guy and become that $7.5 million defenseman. He was never going to be it in New York though, ever. Year after year, the coaching, the decision making, the pairings they put him in, you can't blame Jacob Trubin anymore, but you can blame the fact that he was good with Adam Fox. They took him away from Adam Fox and

Phil Housley's system was a wreck and nobody did anything. They never got the best out of him. So I think he needed a start somewhere else to be that guy And I think the canes is a perfect landing spot for him I think the contract is a risk when you look at the money Could he become the next esalen dell that money's gonna look great, but there are also some really scary names You know that ranks similarly to him at this age, right? But I like the bet for them knowing their track record And I think he brings the skill this blue line needs, right?

He's gonna play behind Slaven, that's a great thing to have. Chatfield is a very good partner for him. But I think with the Canes, we know the system works to an extent, but I think if they wanna go further than they've gone before, they need more skill within it. I think he's that. From the ranger side of it,

I think Gavrikov is the shut down presence they wanted Kaandria Miller to become and they couldn't get him to that level. And after last year's chaos, you can't bet on 100 rebounds and hope it's going to be different under a new coaching staff. At a certain point, you're going to make changes. Is it a good thing to give up on a young guy like Kaandria Miller? No, it is not. It's par for the course in New York because they draft these guys

and they don't develop them properly. But on the other hand, you look at the contract Gavrikov got, the fit that makes so much sense because we know he's a good shut down top four guy that can either play with Fox or carry a second pair. And it makes sense. And then you add in someone like Morrow

who also has these raw skills and also needs some work, but that's you're betting on a 22 year old to become that guy when he's on the last year of his entry-level deal versus the guy looking for a big-time contract like Miller just got. It makes sense for both sides of it. I actually really like the trade on both sides. Let me ask one more thing about one more team. The New York Allenders, it seems ever since Matthew Darsh took over, it has been, and we can quibble about the Noah Dobson return perhaps. I think they got a really good return on Noah Dobson. There was clearly something there between him and Patrick Waugh.

But we'll see how this all plays out as the summer goes along and we try to figure out more of what went wrong with the Islanders and, and, and Noah Dobson, but I'll be honest with you. I, I look at this team now and say, am I allowed to be excited a little bit for the New York Islanders all of a sudden signs of life, signs of personality, signs of direction, and not just a Gordian knot of bad contracts to aging players? Like this is all inside of a couple of weeks here with Matthew Darsh. Yeah, it just shows why they should have done this way sooner, right? Well, we all know that.

We all know that. Yeah, 100%. Yeah. Yeah, it's not an easy situation to navigate. I'm going to quibble about the fact that I don't think they should have moved on from Dobson. If him Petroquois didn't get along, guess what? I'm siding with the guy that could win a Norris trophy one day. I don't care that he wants 10 million. That's the price of an elite number one. I'm just wondering if that's what it is.

Like it's gotta be something. It's gotta be something. Well, and even say it was the contract, you don't wanna make that bet or people look at it like, oh, okay, but they're gonna get Matthew Schaefer. Well, guess what? Your best blue line's gonna have both of them. Just like now Montreal's gonna have Dobson and Hudson.

It's a good problem to have too many good defensemen, but I don't think you sell low on someone who's young enough to be a part of the retool. But even if we put all that aside and forget about the fact that they got two draft picks back, that you're going to hope someday amount to a player like Noah Dobson. I feel like I'm talking about the T-Straight all over again, but even if we set all that aside, the direction is a breath of fresh air in every which way. This is the kind of thinking you need, because I like that they said, hey, this is what we're retooling and this is how we're going to do it. And they're committing to it. Right.

I still think there's more to come. There's some bad contracts they might try to get rid of. It's going to be interesting to see how they navigate Cezikas and Peugeot and players like that. But like someone like Jonathan Drewan, it's going to be interesting to see how he does without Nathan McKinnon. I think on paper, he looks like a good fit with someone like Barzell. That's a lot of skill you can have. And it and it's not a contract that bogs you down.

I think they did a great job at the draft too and I think it's the first time in a long time you can honestly say that because the picks in the Lue era were questionable every single time. So now you're actually getting some star potential. Let me ask you about one player you just mentioned, and that's Casey Sazekis. I know it's not the biggest superstar on the team, but I'll tell you, if I'm Matthew Darsh right now, given how coming off another Stanley Cup victory

by the Florida Panthers and how much everybody covet players quote unquote like that, it's got two years of two and a half million dollars per very, very manageable contract. Players like this are very, very attractive right now. If you're Matthew Darsh, do you strike on that right now and move Casey Sazekis? And let me go one step further. Now that Matt Martin has joined as an advisor to the general manager, do you get Matt Martin

to tell his teammate that he's been traded? Just cold business. Just kind of like how Mike Greer bought out a former teammate and Mark Edward Vlasic. Cold, Gina Goldman. Cold business of hockey. Cold. I think it would be nice. Hey, hey, Vesty, I've gone through this before.

I want to let you know. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I think it's nice to have a friendly shoulder being the one to deliver that news. So I don't hate that element of it. I agree with you though, 100%. Because at the end of the day, I think Sousikas has always been the most important part

of that fourth line, right? That identity, that everything. He was a great penalty killer. You look at the early trots years and how good he was. I think he never got his due and the hype he deserved. But having said all that at the end of the day is two more years on this contract. And yes, he could be that stabilizing fourth force on the fourth line. You can find that, right? You have replaceable

talent. You can find it. And they have so many bottom sixers there that I don't think it's an issue. You trade them to the highest bidder and he can go on and hopefully actually play for a playoff team for the next few years because his, his timeline is never going to match up with the teams now that they're committing to this retooling process. So you absolutely do it. I love it. I don't know what your summer plans are, but we're going to go all the way through. Not every day is going to be reduced schedule. And I'm going to say this and not mean it. We're going to try not to bug you too much.

Okay. Can't even say that. Yeah, okay. They're laughing. I'll see you in two weeks. Yeah, okay. I can't even say that without laughing. Yeah, okay. I'll see you in two weeks. Yeah, okay. If that. What's the text you're going to get from me?

It's a Shea Day. It's a Shea Day. Because, I mean, you went with it originally, Shea Day, and I'm like, listen, there's already a name for this. Like, if my friends have plans with me, it's a Shea Day, so I didn't come up with it. So it's nice. I send it early, knowing that it's going to take a couple of hours to get a response. Take no offense.

You know what? I saw it this morning and I went to answer it and I, I saw it. I was up at like eight, eight 30 and I just like, I see my texts and I leave them on read because if I click them, I know I'll never circle back. And I was like, after coffee, I'd like, I, I'm not, I'm not there yet. Deal with him after coffee. I'll deal with any text and because I can read it and process it but I don't know if my text will be eligible back. Do do the best. Um it is once again a some finish this sentence. It is the summer of Dill. Oh my god I got a new I got a new chip. I will do it. You have it nearby

Cosco hat do you have it nearby? Can you do show-and-tell? Okay, don't have it nearby my sister was at Costco and was on the hunt for them. They are I think Grillo's pickle Yeah, well, I was making potatoes. Yes, they're at Costco. It's like a Costco I don't know if it's an exclusive, but like they have them there. It's a, of course, a Costco-sized bag. Very excited. I will give you a nice review. I've been, listen, I let you know about the Sonic ones. I let you know about the ones at the Met Game. Yeah, now I just need the dill pickle ramen. Like cup of noodles, dill pickle ramen.

Dill pickle ramen? I love that dill pickle. Was it dill pickle lemonade you sent me? The picture you sent me? Dill pickle lemonade? Oh yeah, that was Popeyes. How was it? That was good. They had, they also had Sonic, they had this like pickle slushy, but I didn't get it because I was already getting another drink and I was like, you know what?

Like let me focus on the food element of it. I was, I want to circle, I want to go back there. Yeah, I was like, you know, it's too much pickle. I didn't know if it'd be overwhelming or like if it would take away from the flavor of something else. And I was really curious on the burger, tots and fries. So I was like, let me focus here.

I admire your discipline. I would have just gone for quality over quantity, volume, volume, volume. I don't care how smug it is. It's usually my move. It's like the old chocolate chipwitch, like how much more chocolatey can I be? Never enough.
