let's do it
no no i guess we're not
well we just let the air out of the tire there didn't we all right all right i think we can
wrap it yeah no i think we're done we're all done yeah so so listen thanks for coming
there it is yeah well done guys podcast with your host steve dangle adam wild and jesse blake
hey i like the let's go all right so listen we got to talk about so many things today so many
things yeah you guys want to start with olympics do you want to start with uh you want to talk
about the trades like what do we want to do where do we want to go i'm i'm just i think we're blessed
that all of these things happen before recording for once yeah yeah how about that for once yeah
for once uh i don't know the olympics is that the yeah sure let's talk about it so listen
so we got the olympics coming we got the world cup coming we got the four nations cup because
you know uh cool cool uh any any time that you can have a tournament involving international
teams and exclude the lead second best player you got to do it dude you got to do it austin
matthews will be i'm sorry what are you talking about excuse me they're not sure to boo or cheer
that second best that's better than third but like it's also worse than first
you're damn right goals are better than assists thank you just don't ask me about soccer adam
before you fall in love with that guy he's a linesman oh boo boo this man i bet when he puts
his drink down on the table he's like oh oh shit got him so here's the thing we finally get the
olympics now i don't even know where the olympics are because i don't care until like the day before
honestly right oh oh where are they where is it torino italy it doesn't matter what city okay oh
no it's milan is it or no i think it's genoa milan what is it yeah it's his hometown it's right
country it's in scarborough now i remember it's a u of t scarborough the whole thing so i remember
when we were when we were talking about this about a month ago the arena was like a big concern for
the nhl oh how are we going to play hockey without a new arena ignoring the fact that there's a 4 000
seat arena bigger than mullet arena in in the city right now where the olympics are going to be held
i guess the arena is underway um nhl size nhl size which is great very important and size and we
found out with Alan earlier that all the insurance and all that stuff is going to be paid for. That's
great. Do you guys care about the time difference? Who cares? Does anybody care? No. So that's been
a thing that's held the NHL back a lot is this supposed, oh, people don't want to watch at weird
times. Have you guys, you've heard them talk about this, right? I've heard them make every excuse
in the world it's you know what's great is this is the nhl having to realize something once and
for all because did you notice the spacing of the announcement yesterday they're like and we're
gonna do this thing with four countries yeah that was the reaction that was the reaction
and then today hey we're gonna go to two olympics
all right that that's the better one the one that people gave a vague damn about that one
the nhl they have an unwillingness to do things that like burden themselves but would benefit
the fans so with the the olympics you got to interrupt the season you got to pay for all
the insurance you got to send your best players and risk injury and all that stuff and all of
that's a pain to the nhl but it's fun for the fans because we get to watch best on best hockey
and they hate doing things that don't benefit themselves directly well and you know the crazy
thing so believe it or not i watch a lot of hockey games oh crazy and the players get hurt anyway
they it didn't playing in the nhl didn't stop them from getting hurt
that's the weirdest thing hold on like it's isn't that the risk that every elite athlete takes
when that what if just everyone boycotted the olympics not for anything political just
i don't know i like my hamstrings i don't want to hurt my knees yeah i don't want to i don't want
to win a gold medal because it might hurt me ow exactly i trained all my life to be fit that's all
that's it i don't need the accolades it's fine well and i think this all comes down to billionaires
just don't want to spend their money that's what it is right i don't get it well and you know what
i don't understand i think that's a new concept that might be the reason that we're not billionaires
Because instantly, if I'm a billionaire, and the cost, I am a billionaire, you're right.
Don't you forget it.
See this watch?
Adam actually owns the rec room, so.
Thank you, by the way.
You're welcome, you're welcome.
You're welcome for the venue tonight.
No, I think what's fascinating about this is that if it were me, let's say I own the Toronto Maple Leafs one day, that'd be great.
Oh, that'd be great.
I'd love that.
I would be like, you know what, Gary?
It's okay.
the 15 million you got to pay in insurance the 1 million in flights i'll take care of it i just
want to see him go but but i don't think you can be an owner and i don't think you can be a
commissioner and be a fan too yeah they don't think about it like that at all right yeah well
imagine like how hard what about a three decade tyrant in their 70s how's how's that i don't know
is that effective no is that bad sorry well it's i don't know what i'm talking about don't clap
you don't know who i'm referring to so so anyway we finally got what everybody's been asking for
it's exciting we're pumped about it the four nations cup as much as it's sort of goofy so
was team north america and we ended up loving that right team some of europe was less exciting
i was there there was one guy in a slovakia jersey who was pumped that's okay there you go i think it
was gabarit but i'm open to this tournament being fun i am open to that of course what does it need
to be for you think about this if you're going to spend your hours right because we got to work
we got to pay bills we got to mow lawns we got to do whatever it is we got to do so that hours that
you have on the couch and i really believe this and you can tell from my body shape that i believe
it the hours on the couch are precious they mean a lot if you're going to spend your hours on this
what do you need to see for this to be a success for you as a fan the one thing that the nhl and
everyone involved can't plan for moments we all remember how did 2010 end
pretty good pretty good you know they won in sochi too yeah yeah but it was two nothing and
it was boring i've never had a single person tell me and i was there i saw that do you know where
you were do you know where you were i was in your mom's basement that's right i was hanging there
too i was there too no okay thank you for clarifying no i'm and like the sochi olympics
like yeah carrie price was absolutely dominant and they played this and they played this unreal
structure and everything structure is not what makes fans overtime winners by the best player
in the sport make fans on home ice disney movie stuff that is if you wrote it you'd be like all
right that's how i would write it but in real life brendan morrow probably scores that call
no sydney crosby all alone from jerome mcginla who did not have retirement forced upon him
how dare you uh that's a deep cut yeah it's it's moments right it's um it's it's difficult
to plan for that um the best players in the world can go i don't know if people will ultimately care
if it's all dominance like they tried to recreate it when we were in school
um they tried to recreate the 72 summit series uh when we were in the eighth grade and canada
was going toward the gold medal game in salt lake canada i don't remember who they beat but
they made it to the semi-final against our long time historic rival belarus
and i remember they they brought our class into the auditorium and they wheeled the tv in and
they're trying to recreate the youth that they had and the experience that they had canada won
like eight nothing so all i remember yeah i was happy about it but like after the fourth or fifth
one we're like this kind of sucks i'm happy about it but it kind of it didn't i don't remember who
scored i don't remember the moments i remember the moment where sweden choked against belarus
and the puck went off tommy sallow's head oh yeah because that was a moment right so what we're
looking for here is i need matthews and mcdavid battling for the puck going at each other's
throats matthews gets an opportunity one way and he tries and he gets stopped patrick lion
a gets the puck and goes the other way and scores sorry that happened um that happened in real life
in a leafs jets game but you need that is too much of a deep cut for any of us see here's
you know what i love about steve and i'm going to just take his side show and jesse can relate
to this too there's moments on the show where only steve would remember the jets and leafs from
november 2018 and and we're like what the hell is he talking about nobody else remembers it he's
like don't you guys remember oh 2016 okay well yeah i'm yeah yeah because i got that stored in
my memory bank right right yeah so doesn't everyone can answer your olympic question yes
please give it to me so for me like just the idea of best on best for me is enough because like i
feel like the women's hockey game doesn't get enough credit for like a lot of things
and what the women's hockey game has been doing has been fighting for a league and all this stuff
is they've had these showcases around north america where it's team usa versus team canada
because that's the best on best and i feel like the nhl's finally caught up and they've realized
hey best on best is amazing and if you just put mcdavid and crosby and marner on a team together
that's enough for people to show up to an arena and i feel like the women's hockey has been very
successful with that model and them just going best on best even though it's only four nations
having all of the stars on one team in competition that they care about all those guys are going to
be out there caring because they've set it up where you're playing each other it's a hockey
game it's for stakes and that's enough to get me to tune in well so yeah amen jesse we got some
applause over there also like patrick line a in 2016. yeah oh man everybody remembers that play
right okay it was the lfr had a spike because they lost then i was mad so what a shock yeah i know
it's weird hey they won 4-2 against the islanders nothing yeah no it's okay and they lost a freaking
anaheim and then this kid gets over it i just did an impression of myself yeah it's good that
That was the voice I chose.
You do a good impression of yourself.
I do a terrible impression of myself.
That was a better impression of Michael Bublé.
Now, I'll be honest with you.
We need to talk about that.
Because I woke up this morning and I'm doing prep for the show.
We buried the lead.
Doing prep for the show.
And my wife on the couch, who's with the couch.
And she's sitting on the couch with our cat, Teddy.
He's a white cat.
And she's like, scrolling through her phone.
And she's like, Steve's on TMZ.
And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
And she's like, no, no, no, Steve Dangle, your friend from high school, is on TMZ.
And so...
Do you know why, though?
Yesterday...
Do you know why, though?
Sex scandal.
It's super hot.
No, he was...
So you guys all saw the Michael Bublé press conference yesterday where he was talking
about microdosing on mushrooms, which, how many people here?
Yeah, all right.
Currently on mushrooms.
He didn't raise his hand.
He did this.
Spirit fingers, let's go.
listen we're all for edibles good for you um but but but steve you were hanging out with
michael buble last night yeah that's pretty cool so like what's that everyone in here done that
is that rare is that weird no i was um so the first time i had ever been acquainted with um
mike from bc is uh my close personal friend michael buble uh was uh during one of the streams
we did on Sportsnet during COVID
where we watched old games
because new games weren't happening
and it was
David Amber on with me, I think Carolyn
Cameron, Michael Bublé, and then
me. And I'm like, alright
I will let the adults handle
it. And I'm older than Carolyn Cameron, but
nope, I will let the adults handle it.
I think if we were going to put you in a room
with Carolyn Cameron and say to everybody
point to the adult. They'd point to the one with the
turtleneck. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Yes.
a hundred percent they would point to her and he unprompted just starts talking about like oh yeah
like sometimes i feel like i'm steve dangle and i went yes mike from bc what and um then you know
some time passes the world opens and uh the leafs finally make it to the second round
and then lost hey they did it though so when they lost i'm just doom scrolling depression
scrolling my phone and i see this message and it's like hey man you did a great job with the
streams blah blah blah and uh he signed off i think he signed off mike and i checked and i'm
like so who's mike michael boob there's a blue check mark what the and and so it was michael
buble and he gave me his number and i've discovered he's from bc mike mike from bc and we've just you
know every now and then we'll text and like he's that dude is a legit hockey fan like he's he goes
to me he's like who who are your favorite leafs going up no that's boring who are your most
underrated leaves growing up and that's pressure right because i don't know like every lead what
did you say who did you say i told him uh alan mccauley oh good one and dimitri uskevich i was
gonna say nice nice kyle that'd be a good answer got a dollar from him if you read the book what
did you guys eat what did we eat yeah what did you eat with dinner with michael buble uh sea bass
i have the sea but so actually here wait let me get there let me get there let me get there
so uh we were talking back and forth he was talking about his favorite Canucks and then
yesterday he goes do you want to go get a bite after the draft and bring your wife and so she
broke I'm sure all the traffic laws to get downtown to to join us and uh you know my mom
comes over and babysits her son Leo and that's the proudest day of her life but I get to spend
a night with my grandson while my son goes to have dinner with Michael Bublé it was best night
of your life so we go to the restaurant first thing i do when i see him because i was waiting
for him i saw all the posts go up where he said he was on mushrooms at the all-star draft yes
and it took off but he just said that into a mic and left he left and he got in his car and he's
like oh you know i'm gonna put my stuff down and i'm gonna go to dinner first thing i ask him like
i don't know how do you break the ice with michael buble i go you for real on truce and he goes what
no i'm like a lot of people think you're on truce yeah because he said it yeah he said it's strange
how people believed what michael buble said into a microphone where did they get this idea from
that's crazy who's spreading these rumors that i told you um and he immediately goes on his phone
and he's like hey did you know that people and i'm like oh i just told like a very world famous
person a potential scandal and so we made that video where he ate the bread i don't know if you
saw it and he's there you go and uh yeah it only got a thousand likes on tiktok which tells me
something's wrong with tiktok no it tells me the the buble demographic ah the buble demographic
because it got a ton on instagram right um but no dude that that is a great guy like all we talked
about like i would love to get up here and tell you a story where yeah he was licking the table
and he thought the walls were melting and no uh i showed him a video of leo skating he showed me a
video of his kids dancing and then we talked about uh matthew's crazy goal against the kraken from a
few weeks ago because he was there and uh the canucks like that was he's just he's just a dude
who loves his kids and hockey that's it does he think this team can win the Canucks oh I was like
the Leafs no are the Canucks for real in Buble's eyes he uh he was talking about who he would
rather play in the first round uh and I can't remember who it was between it was between
whoever the other team was he would rather play the Oilers and I was what do we think I told him
maybe you are on mushrooms because I don't know about that by the way this poor guy got booed
earlier when Alan and I were on.
Just because he's wearing an Oilers jersey.
Oh.
When are you going to get to the tragic part of that story?
Oh, sorry. Is there
more? No, no. I'm saying you should
boo the Oilers fan. Oh, you should boo him?
Yeah. Everything's going right.
All the stars were here. We've got to be good to people.

YouTuber on one of the biggest football
days of the year

when the Senators traded

for two straight hours
two straight hours
I've gotten to know Steve, Steve is one of the kindest
human beings I've ever met in my life

You know what to do, Drew.
So I get into work this morning at 4.30.
And I go through my feed for the first time.
So all of you have already seen the stuff I'm about to see.
I see this video of Steve Dangle in what looks like to be the Vatican.
And he does the phone turn, which is one of the great underrated moves ever.
if you're ever with a famous person do a little phone turn to michael buble and i'm like this son
of a bitch because we've been working on the buble interview for weeks to come in to breakfast
television and we didn't listen michael buble has a lot of commitments this week so we were told
i could tell this now it's fine michael buble may or may not show up before the end of the show
you've done breakfast television enough and it it happens all the time you know and you don't
talk about it you can't tease it you can't tease it well i i know showed you what oh yeah and that
was a video interview i just slept in i forgot to set my alarm steve slept in didn't show up
not a big deal i'm over it the point is this the point is this i love you the point is this
so we're like if buble is going to show up late maybe not because he wants to be but he's michael
buble buble showed up 25 minutes early this morning really he's walking around we have like
a chef from real sports he's eating fries he's dipping i'm like this is fantastic so before
buble comes on this is like around 9 50 he's coming on so he walks up i go i gotta i'm like
how the fuck do you have dinner with steve dangle how does that happen
michael buble looks at me and goes i love steve dangle
he he goes steve dangle is one of my favorite people in all i'm not kidding in all of sports
he goes i i and then he told another story do you want me to tell this one or it's not my story to
tell do you want to tell this part i'll tell it all right i don't even know this i don't know
this i don't know do you know this i think so okay i don't think i've been told this so
so then michael buble goes so we're having dinner and then listen is steve dangle a passionate
hockey fan? Yes or no? Passion
hockey. Steve
Dangle, is Michael Buble a passionate hockey
fan? Yes or no? Almost definitely.
So Michael Buble
says to me, they spent
20 minutes just
talking shit about how the game could be
better.
And it was like loud, because
there was a DJ pumping in a lot
of music, right? Like you guys were yelling.
It was loud for the Vatican.
It was pumping in there.
And then
michael buble says to me because i didn't have dinner with him you did that's the only thing i
can say buble says so you guys are like changing hockey you are reconfiguring the national hockey
we did a great job loudly and the commissioner may or may not have been mentioned a couple times
and someone comes behind buble and says i'm a friend of gary betman i'm a huge fan of yours
in the thickest long island accent i've ever heard do it can you do the impression we're
practicing like they were practicing for a pot like like family guy they called it
hacky hacky hacky on on long island and i like i was like that is the genuine article
right there and immediately it became about you know fan fest is going really well there's lots
of things to do the mascots are fighting yeah it's gonna be fun they're wearing suit jackets
that's quirky and neat let us all know that the event is special yeah we softened our stance yes
you did steve i don't know if you want to say what sl you're you're mrs dangle exposed about you to
michael buble so in the barata yeah he was working the draft all night and uh he was so excited to
talk hockey that he would do hockey hockey hockey oh god i'm starving uh oh but hockey hockey hockey
oh god i'm starving hockey hockey and then finally someone at the table went michael order order
something and so he goes yeah i'm gonna order and steve do you want i didn't hear a word he said
And I'm like, all right, I guess did it is about to show up.
And what showed up, I think, is called...
Burrata.
Burrata?
Yes, yes.
Okay, hold on.
Where are you from originally, like your family?
Italy.
You don't know Burrata?
We weren't a big Burrata family.
I am the waspiest shit on this stage, and I freaking love Burrata.
We were the...
Come on.
We were the soul fish.
We were the bacala.
We were the lamb.
We were the spicy potatoes.
We were all of that, Adam.
we weren't a
burrata family
maybe all those
high and mighties
in the north
had the burrata
but down in
Puglia
Monteleone di Puglia
we were more of a
spicy potato
yeah okay well
family
so you have
burrata for the
first time ever
with Michael Bublé
well I don't know
what's about to
show up
and what shows up
a giant plate of
cheese
and Jesse
what am I
well
oh
Sarah Louise
my darling wife
as I'm
halfway through it goes you know he's lactose intolerant
she told michael buble that i was gonna fart a lot in the car on the way home
which is not how i saw the evening going and that's why she's my wife now as somebody who
has been in the room with these two guys when we order a cheese pizza and i'm not lactose intolerant
open all the windows you can't either of these two you can't do it it's bad leave it leave them
closed if you want to save some money on the heat bill. Yeah, that's fair. That's fair. Now listen.

and and i want to know we got two major moves we got the canucks doubling down this is a year
we're going for it lynn home is now at canuck what do we think of the move are we booing it
because it's a canucks or are we booing it because it's a bad mood okay canucks okay but if it was
the Leafs, would you feel good about the move?
Oh, they'd love it.
They'd love it.
Elias Lindholm,
future heart winner.
Kelly
Yarncrow, give him eight years.
I know.
I grew up with you. Shut up.
What Batman
henchman is that?
All of them.
All of them.
So, okay.
You see the move. It's during
all-star which is a bummer for our trade deadline special i'm not gonna lie but what do we think
guys what do we all think about this this move for the canucks what's it bring them that they
didn't previously have it brings them an absence of prospects uh that's for sure um listen it's
there's a saying that i used to say too much and that is elite players don't forget how to play
hockey and i wish i never said that because this year that most of them did like a lot of them did
having surprisingly down years yeah lynn holmes got like what one goal in the last
month he's got eight this year something like that yeah it's not going well but still he's the
bell of the ball like teams are rumored to be at the time of this trade rumored to be giving up a
first round pick for Sean Monahan who had to be traded away with a sweetener before and now this
guy who was nominated for the selkie two years ago is the top guy available and I I believe that
he's going to be a good Canuck I remember the Leafs playing the Canucks and being like Teddy
Bluger's on John Tavares like that's their face-off guy so now they got this crazy one-two punch where
They can do Petey and Lindholm and then let Suter and Bluger figure it out in the bottom six.
I think it could be good for them.
But that is a mighty stiff package for a guy who has not – he's probably playing his worst hockey in half a decade.
Right.
Now, is that more a function of the Flames where everybody seems to be playing their worst hockey in half a decade?
It's worth mentioning they suck, yes.
Yeah, okay.
Sid?
I hate – and this is why –
I love when you start by that.
I hate.
That's a good start.
I got to be honest.
The Calder Cup.
The Calder Cup is not real.
Who remembers the Calder Cup?
Exactly.
Let's move on.
Do you remember that shot at Dubois Scott?
I got it hanging in my room.
I do not.
I do not.
That was the most overt, unnecessary celebration I've ever seen.
I hate giving up that much for any unrestricted potential free agent. I think it's insane
but
The one thing I like about what the Canucks did here is
That dressing room earned it
The dressing room doesn't care about the prospects the dressing room doesn't care about the capital the dressing room doesn't care about
Alvin and Rutherford discussions
what just happened oh what an acquisition oh yeah justin fisher everybody adam's on coffee one
we got coffee or no that's two that's coffee two that's coffee two let's go coffee two i like
sorry i'll make this quick i like teams who prove to their front office fucking bet on us
and the canucks have done that and i give them a lot of credit the team in this down has done
the complete opposite of that oh the oh really breaking news leave the marlies alone they don't
have a second rounder till 2038 they can't train anything but the canucks watch your mouth that's
leo's draft year it is it is he shoots right i i like teams that force the the front office's
hand and go oh damn they're not messing around and i i listen the canucks are going to sit there
the oilers in the in vegas are going to beat the hell out of each other vegas will win sorry bud
no there's one vegas will win yes vegas for 20 years a vegas fan um
I'll take it back, I'm sorry
I'm an idiot
but I respect teams that force
the front office to re-evaluate things
on the fly like that, good for Jim
Rutherford, who's won
many things, to look
at his team and go, this is what you do
by the way, Elyse Pedersen, I didn't know he was
that tall last night, was I the only one thinking that?
he's pretty tall, he's a big guy
he doesn't really give that aura
on the ice, but
It's a lot of head and neck.
So much head and neck.
So much.
By the way, I don't want to shift this on you quick.
Kent Hughes is the new Messiah jury of the National Hockey League.
You think so?
When he calls you, hang up.
Because that guy is teething from teams left and right.
I'm a huge Sean Monaghan guy.
He's one of the nicest guys in the league.
What the hell was that?
So is that confirmed?
Is it confirmed now?
There's Winnipeg?
He is a Jet.
Okay, all right.
what do we think about that trade by the way we're liking that trade for Winnipeg um yeah
Monaghan two first Habs fan is like yeah yeah here's the problem we meant but and I understood
and Jesse here's here's the thing when I see the Sean Monaghan thing and I think oh Montreal's got
a second first rounder that's great they're gonna go and draft a second another stay-at-home
defenseman and this is the thing if Montreal is gonna compile picks at some point you got to take
a stand with somebody who's got a high ceiling right like letting mitch koff go even if mitch
koff never wanted to play for you you gotta flip him for something he's tearing up the khl right
now and nothing about against reinbacher but i'm worried about with montreal the lack of elite
talent they are doing a good job in turning this around but it's nick suzuki cole caulfield
slavkoski's kind of come on and then what what is it what's the rest of the team you what's the
saying you sell winning or you sell hope yeah what's easier to acquire hope or winning hope
hope we're league fans hope he's elite at acquiring hope they gotta win jesse i think
sid nailed it from the jets and the canucks perspectives in terms of like the hockey side
you've got two teams who were in the top three in the nhl standings and what uh alvin and rutherford
did over there in vancouver is they didn't affect the hockey at all in vancouver all they did was
add to it you know the first round pick kuzmenko wasn't doing anything for them no he wasn't didn't
fit on the team at all talk it hated his guts hated his wasn't gonna play him at all he didn't
fit so you got to bail on that deal which has another year on it and then you brought in a
player who fits your lineup perfectly like what they needed was a 2c and somebody who can sit on
the power play who doesn't doesn't necessarily need to score the power play goals and that's
what they got so i love the deal from their perspective and then and then winnipeg you gave
nothing you give it magic beans that's what draft picks are we don't know what that can be and
there's a team that has struggled with shifley out so you need some support there you bring in
monahan i like it i like it from both sides for the teams that are acquiring the big players on
the canucks end it's worth mentioning that jt miller discovered the other hundred feet of the
ice yeah he decided to play defense elite power play killer jt miller elite power those are still
Those are some of the best clips.
You're still right, though.
Power play killer.
Technically.
You mean JT Miller dogging it in the defensive zone last year?
Are you talking about those clips?
Like, listen, I'm an SDP and SDPN fan enough to know you can't show the video.
No, we can't show the fucking video.
But JT, you'll get there.
But JT Miller was the gift that kept on giving.
Oh, yeah.
Because you would just show him not give a shit.
Yeah.
Just a still image.
And stills would do the trick.
you would not need motion video to prove jt miller he bailed on plays last year yeah it was
incredible it was and you know it's the same thing and you guys have seen this la fired their head
coach today todd mcclellan is now gone in los angeles and they are supposed to be contender
and i think a lot of the the reason for that is if pierre luke dubois decides to play hockey ever
again he's going to make the new head coach look great but that is another guy where you know even
though we can never show the footage you show the stills that guy can't he just some days it's like
no i just don't feel like forget the stills like if you go and look at where he is in league scoring
i think he has 19 points i want to say and he's he's behind kuzmenko who was just a cap dump
he's behind morgan frost who's been like a healthy scratch like it's crazy how many guys are above
him in league scoring who have been told by their coach despite your healthy demeanor i would like
you to sit and eat popcorn tonight because you're not one of our best players yeah and he makes
eight and a half million dollars i just want to point that's right yeah if i'm going to be honest
i think the wrong guy lost his job in la i think rob blake has done a terrible job last couple
years really building that team yeah like todd mccullen he wants his players to play a specific
brand of hockey he wants to play 200 foot hockey wants everybody to work both sides and you go
acquire pld like that's the guy you're getting to play under tom mcclellan you you gave your coach
the wrong horses to run with and if the guys he has aren't successful maybe it's the guy who brought
in the guys is that what we thought when it happened though no certainly not at least not me
but hold on to jesse's point this is a guy whose claim to fame in columbus was the shift the
laziest shift in the history of hockey he goes to winnipeg within eight minutes his agent's saying
i want to go to the habs he's at did he go to the draft the one year in montreal yeah he showed up
just to say hi that sob went to the draft in montreal he was he had a foot out the door the
second he got to winnipeg if you're i'm with you if you're rob blake and you say that's my god
you got a question you deserve to get bounced way before todd mcclellan a guy i genuinely like
who got a raw deal in edmonton with a lazy roster i i'm with you i think more people's heads need a
role in la just for that decision than just todd who i think is a good calliev who's asked out
apparently as well there's another player who he's i wouldn't say he's uh defensively deficient but
defense isn't his favorite thing in the world and that's not what todd mcclellan wants so these are
the guys you're giving the coach and it doesn't fit the system that your coach has these guys
playing and like john tortorella what he's done with the flyers would it be wild if he was
nominated for the jack adams no not at all he'll probably win rick bonus and what he's done with
the winnipeg jets would it be wild if he was nominated for the jack adams no i don't think
those are two coaches who were like beat it and now the other guy's been fired yeah and what's
gonna happen what's gonna happen is the checks will arrive on time it's margarita he's set he's
set like what why try yeah why try like it's i don't i i don't believe that stereotype about
players they sign the deal and shut it off he's not doing much for it he's not doing much for it
and watch they're gonna get a new coach whoever it happens to be he's gonna get 20 goals in the
next three games and we're all going to be like ah it was todd mcclellan and then you know what's
going to happen the same thing that we've watched happen to three different teams but pierre looked
was why being an nhl gm is one of the hardest jobs in professional sports right now you have
three shots to miss on your cap that's it you have three chances to get this right or get this very
very wrong and Pierre-Luc Dubois is a is an energy sucker and he will and you know what it's
talked to me in seven years LA but I do believe and like I do believe at some point the NHL needs
to give one team on June the 28th a get out of jail free card on this this is getting out of hand
like you guys I believe it was your pod I heard it on someone who brought it up was you was you
Jess? Someone brought it up where it's like
a team needs a just
erase the thing from your cap.
Yeah, just the free buyout.
Compliance buyout. Days before free agency,
just the one, so everyone knows what
the deal is, but you get
one. And it actually makes it more
interesting because it frees up probably
24 guys who
get bounced initially. Like, why
is that a bad thing for the game? I think there needs
to be a way where you give the guys
money, because NHL contracts are guaranteed,
but if we don't want you
on the roster anymore, there should be a
mutualing parting of weights.
I don't know. I think that's something that the CBA
should be written into. They did do it.
After the last lockout, they did it. They had
two of them. And the Leafs blew one on
Grabowski, remember?
Yes.
Right? So yeah, we'll never forget.
You forgot about that? Yeah, yeah. It's crazy.
I forgot about the Grabowski.
I want to take the next
five minutes, and I want to
talk about the Leafs. What do you guys think?
All right.
So, I just want to boo.
Thank you for the boos, too.
Shut up, Drew.
That was Drew.
Was that Drew?
Just Drew?
Shut up.
Everyone say boo.
Boo that man.
They were saying Drew Earns.
All right, all right.
So, there have been people lately who have been like,
are the Leafs going to make the playoffs?
So, by your applause and your woo,
who thinks the Leafs make the playoffs?
All right.
Who thinks the Leafs make past the first round to the second round?
Wow.
Who lives in a perennial state of existential dread?
Who's on mushrooms?
All right, all right, all right.
Quickly, third round.
Anybody, any believers?
Yeah.
Okay, we got believers.
I don't know.
Okay.
Go Devils.
Go Devils.
That's right.
I didn't bring my pajamas.
Sorry, buddy.
Shannon Andre Pallant.
Yeah, yeah.
Love Andre Palat.
And what about the Stanley Cup Finals?
Who sees the Leafs, honestly sees the Leafs in the Finals?
Why not?
Why not?
There was no applause.
Again with the henchmen.
Yeah.
They're very good at the henchmen.
There was no applause.
But a big third round support.
Big third round.
I like that we think.
Big third round.
So, all right.
So, I want to get your opinions now.
I'm going to start from Jesse, work my way over.
Jesse.
Sure.
Where do you think the Leafs, as of right now, this can change.
I'm not going to hold you to this.
Where do the Leafs end up at the end of this season?
Are we in April?
Are we in May?
Or are we in June?
You're talking about their playoff performance.
Their playoff performance.
Because I'm assuming they're making it.
It's at least the second round.
You think second round?
I think they can win a round this year again.
Not a lot of people supporting that.
Not a lot of support, but I think at least the second round.
Okay.
Steve, known for your Leaf fan reaction videos.
I am excited to watch Simone Benoit play games
where he is allowed to just simply beat the shit out of people.
I think that'll be really cool.
I think every year some team shows up and we're like, they stink.
And then the NHL goes, aha, they stink in the regular season.
but there is a new rule book that is as it's thinner than Texas toast and they just throw it
in there and some team beats the shit out of everyone on their way to a Stanley Cup wouldn't
it be great if that was Toronto does anyone think that's going to be Toronto it's quieter than the
mushrooms quieter than the mushrooms not a good sign the mushroom crowd is having a big woo night
I just want to say.
All right, Sid, I'm afraid to ask
because I'm seeing the look on your face.
And by the way, it's not that you dislike the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Is it that you dislike delusion?
Is that what it is?
Tell us what it is.
I'm not a fan of delusion.
You're not a fan of it?
No.
You're like you're more of a realist.
No, but I just, I'm, okay, since we're in the applaud mood,
since everyone's Johnny applause in the room.
Don't antagonize our guests.
I want to ask a serious question to the room
I'm being serious
I've been up since 3.30
Tired
Who in the room
Believes
The Leafs salary cap
Has been managed
Properly
No shit
No shit
Quietest rec room has been since they opened this morning
Man all of your faces
Are hilarious right now
Let me tell you something
Let me tell you something.
All right.
There we go.
Can I stand up?
Can I stand up?
Let this man cook.
Let me tell you something.
Let me tell you something.
A few of us out here have been saying for years this cap was horrifically mismanaged.
I love Austin Matthews.
Love him.
Me too.
You know what?
He's already a Hall of Famer.
He's already a Hall of Famer.
Am I wrong?
I think you're right.
First ballot.
First ballot.
First ballot.
Thank you, Justin Blake.
I like William Nylander's game a lot.
Woo!
A lot.
Yay!
A lot.
I think, let's not talk about Tavares.
I like the numbers Marner puts up most years.
I have no problem with it.
Yeah.
I have no problem with it.
All-star.
I have all-star.
All-star, yep.
Yep.
Fourth pick by Team Matthews, Mitch Marner.
Real good.
But they need other things.
they need defensemen
who are crazy
I don't mind Chris Tanev
but is Chris Tanev
what's your name sir? Ryan
let me ask you a fucking question Ryan
do you
does everyone in the room realize what winning a Stanley Cup
actually is
and I'm going to unnecessarily walk up and down the stage
you're in a lap winning a stanley cup means two and a half months of playing games
every other night blood sweat and tears thank you sir which means you need crazy mfers to go
out there like vegas had like colorado's had where's drew there he is yeah i was hoping you
weren't there like every other team we've ever seen in the history of this league over two and
a half months do you believe the leafs have those guys oh wow i'm surprised my job is done wow
okay okay damn all right now dude i i like being humble about what we've built and the show and
you know i think it's lovely all these people have come here any member of leaf's management
sees the video of the reaction to that question which was honest by the way it should send a
chill down their spine any oh i'm not even gonna because i was gonna say any deal they have in the
works you throw that shit out the window but here's why because you guys are smart
you guys are smart you guys know you know listen i'm gonna be right there with you and when they
to get to that Stanley Cup one day. Our ship's coming in and I'm going to celebrate in everybody
else's face, just like you should. You rub it in everybody's face. But to say right now on February
2nd, February 2nd, he would know Breakfast Television. He's got another date every morning.
That's good. It's February 2nd. February 2nd. Groundhog Day. Thank you, Sidney. It's February
2nd. This is Breakfast Television. I just want you to know that your reaction right here shows
how smart you are it shows how into it you are and that the wool can't be pulled over your eyes
and lately they've been trying to pull it over our eyes a little bit i think the original thesis
of the plot there was that they spent too much on four guys and there's no room left to get the guys
who are going to take you four rounds in the playoffs and i think that's a problem that
they're unwilling to admit there was an opportunity to move off of some of the contracts last off
season. They fired the GM. We've been through that a million times. And moving forward, you look at
and you say, okay, so they doubled down a couple of weeks ago by bringing back Willie. And that
was something that looks like they couldn't not do. So how, as a Leafs fan, do you cope with the
team moving forward if they're still stuck in the situation where they're paying all these guys so
much money? Well, one of the two hometown guys is going to go. That's what I think. There's two
hometown guys out of that four.
Max Stomey and...
You got Max Stomey.
You got Marner. You got Tavares.
Don't know. It's going to happen.
Now, who's got the... Do we have a
fifth microphone sound, guys? Do we have anything?
Do we have a fifth mic? Are we able to?
Yeah? Do we have somebody with it?
Maddie? Maddie, where are you at?
Mad Dog!
There she is. Okay, Maddie. No, no.
You get out into the crowd, Maddie. Because we're going to do some
questions. You guys want to do the press conference?
Yeah! Press conference!
Let's do it. All right.
So it can be questions for anybody up on the stage here.
Maddie, you just go ahead and pick. You just go.
Okay.
You just go.
Before we get to the first question, can we all do a...
There you go.
All right, Maddie, over here, Maddie.
There you go.
All right, what do we have?
What's your name?
Sean with an E.
Okay, Sean with an E. Go ahead.
Thank you, scene.
Oh, fuck.
I'm going to have to change my question now.
I've been a long time...
First time, long time.
I'm back from the Producer Chris days.
A lot of many favorite things about the podcast,
but my specific favorite thing is that you're always at the forefront
of the shittiest parts about hockey.
The issues with the culture and all the big stories
that no one's talking about, you are all coming up with it.
It's really, really wonderful.
It makes me really proud to be a part of this community
and cheer for this podcast.
So I'd love to...
Everybody give him a big hand.
Thank you.
So in the spirit of positivity,
I'd love to bring Sid Cicero over to the compliment section.
and uh my ask for you sid is to give adam jesse and steve a heartfelt thank you or something that
you're really grateful for that you admire in them so that's my challenge to you haven't been
up since 3 a.m thank you very much sir you want me to be positive if i want you sid i want you to
dig deep right now is that what you're asking for sir yeah kind of
well about this crew these three wonderful men yes i mean i i get i adam wild let's start with
adam wild no not johnny buble let's start with adam wild
fair no not i mean fair one boo in the corner adam wilde cares adam wilde is one of the more
alan alan adam wilde i thought adam wilde would have my job with bt i watched bt for a long time
adam wilde is one of the most talented fucking hosts i've seen doing anything
and not only is he this talented but he has the courage to say you know what i believe in this so
much we're gonna do this 24 7 we're gonna create a community we're gonna bring people in i'm gonna
trust my buddies i'm gonna trust my family my friends that i've known forever and we're gonna
kick ass and the reality is there's some big players in this country scared to death of this
guy. I'm scared to death.
And I've gotten to know him really
well, and I have nothing
but respect for Adam Weil
and what he has done with SDPN,
and you better fucking applaud right now for this guy.
I'll send you that check. Thank you for that.
Appreciate that. You know the price.
jesse blake can i can i request you roast me instead what's that can you roast me can you
just lay into me i want to roast i think that'll be much more fun i like that jesse is the most
condescending person i've ever met in my life jesse creates technically everything you see
and hear on sdpn and quite frankly thinks he's better than all of us
in all seriousness I got I was lucky enough to work with Jesse on Tim how many people watched
Tim and Sid back in the day Jesse was amazing enough to be how stressful it was at times
we did like contrary to what you might think about Tim and Sid we like really cared a lot
about how it looked and how it came off to all of you Jesse was a part of that team with us on the
social media side for a long time and it took me seconds to realize how talented he was and it
pissed me off to this day you moved on um but um jesse is is also the backbone of this operation
and again i'm talking from a completely different perspective on sdpn than them but there is no sdpn
without jesse blake give a huge round of applause for jesse
book is that supposed to be the roast or i couldn't do it i loved it you can't look at that
he agreed with all my points i couldn't do it um i think the calder cup means a lot and you
should roast me i think it's an indicator of success it is it is yeah uh steve dangle
Steve Dangle is one of it takes a lot of bravery in Canadian media at any level
to be yourself there are a lot of people out there a lot of people I respect but
a lot of people out there where they do not believe they can be themselves in
this Canadian market you see it more in the States and you know the names I'm
talking about but in this country it's different and I was lucky I was also one
the ones where i got support and i could do my own thing what steve dangle has built starting in his
bedroom at his parents house
he went from his bedroom to michael buble picking up the check
let's go how do you know he paid don't do that don't do that you see the he does this
all the time you pay him a compliment he's the most humble guy i've ever met for a guy
successful as he is he does this constantly and it's also because you have busted your rear end
as much as you have i don't know i don't know if folks in the room realize how tough it is
to record perform in and cut your own video every night when you're starting out it is an
impossibility to do and by the way not get paid to do that the way he did to
create a brand the way he did to the point where all of you amazing folks
have come out to support Steve in this amazing Network all of 17 years and you
were counting every year sir were you wow it was like a jail cell there were 300 viewers he was
one of them so just that's all the positivity i fucking got i'm sorry well done but i hope i hope
i'm honored adam invited me on tonight and i hope you understand what i also i feel the same way
about them as you do the same way they care they're talented they love what they do they're
authentic that's all you want canadian media audiences want authentic people robots aren't
that interesting to people and they're replaceable you can't replace these three and you can't
replace cj and julian and everyone working behind the scenes and i'm not making a dime for this
but i'm getting a free beer so it's a contra deal let's rip the leaves fuck yeah i'm done
what else maddie where are you i'm over here right beside you again okay who do we got
all right we got hayden and he looks like he's wearing a jt jersey i think yeah there we go
all right all right long time listener uh just want to shout out mad dog for looking at me
shout out steve for giving me a cameo a few years for my birthday don't think you remember it but
whatever uh main question for steve what made you start the dangle dial that's how i started
listening to you shout out my dad and everything but yeah just we love the dangle dial hate this
thing i hate thank you for asking that question okay roger's employee turn away
um so when i worked at cbc i was editing highlights i would get off work at like
two quarter after two two thirty in the morning that's when the bar is closed
so all my friends who lived in the suburbs like i did needed a drive home so i called it the
dangle dial adam yeah i dangle dialed you oh yeah and uh you know i would just get a text i need to
request a dangle dial i'm like i got you you know they're imagine having a friend like you're in
your early 20s and you have a friend who guaranteed every saturday is going to be downtown sober with
the car that's the dream that's the dream and I would drive him home in the Mazda that I paid
the extra dollar for and it would be great we'd have a great time years later I ended up working
for Sportsnet and Don Collins who was the program director program director thank you at the time
and he wanted to get me involved and he had this idea where I would call into the Jeff Blair show
and i would basically just be a nuisance which i was great at and he's like what should we call it
and i'm like we can call it the dangle dial and he's like i like that two d's let's go and that's
what the segment became except uh i with the exception of once or twice recorded that jeff
and i never actually recorded that when we were on the phone and he at least sort of bought into it
with the idea that i would be this annoying kid who would call into the station with a rant
and he would mumble through it in the few times where he had a fill-in host
they hated me more than arsenic i think if they could have killed me you recorded it but it wasn't
a recording of a back and forth it was a recording of you just talking for two minutes straight
no i would i would i'd like in some cases i'd shoot the lfr i'd walk into the other part of
the basement and they'd be like talk about I don't know the Leo Komarov going to the all-star game
and I'd be like all right and yeah 20 goal scorer and and I would just go off for like 45 seconds
and whoever was recording the thing that day I'd be like was that good they'd be like yeah great
click and I know every day if you listened to that I deeply apologize because I imagine it was
just pissing and shitting into the listeners where is my apology oh i'm sorry there was
forever doing that let me tell you something guys the reason we started this show is because
nobody believed in him that's the reason we started this show i was a radio host nobody
really cared who i was i just come in from calgary they're like yeah yeah you're doing
afternoons a kiss 92.5 nobody cares i was a guy that loved hockey and i was like i find it strange
that this guy's getting 10 20 000 on a video and nobody wants to pick him up and i remember there
were interviews with sportsnet there were interviews with tsn then i'll be like oh so
you're the yelly screamy guy the yelly screamy guy the yelly screamy guy and i remember i was
talking to a maybelieve sports and entertainment executive who once asked me is he okay
no and i said well yes but no but that's your fault by the way you you mirror maybelieve
sports entertainment executive thank you and and what pissed me off about this bit was a i was glad
that you were on the radio but i was so mad because it was not what you were it was inauthentic it was
not honest steve it was a stunt boy caricature of everybody who had written steve off before
so we started this show because he had this youtube channel i said when people get to know
you even more they're going to love you even more and so when i thank you and i'm right i'm right
look at him and i just what pissed me off about that bit was i'm like sports net you're missing
it it's right there for you just have them come on and talk how about how about jeff blair steve
dangle five minutes just talk you guys got 40 by the way in sports radio you got 45 minutes an hour
right 45 minutes an hour to talk about that you can't spare five to just let the guy talk normally
and that's what bothered me about that bit so whenever that i brought that gets brought up my
skin absolutely crawls i used to go in and complain to jesse when we were doing the afternoon show at

with a certain mike who happens to be from bc you may be aware you need to be more specific
the the one on shrooms yeah yeah the one on shrooms what was the question the one on shrooms

his passion for the canucks like that guy can i mean he's living the dream he's one of the few
fans i've ever heard from who thinks like all the rest of us except every now and then he goes
oh i have like some influence and power and he will talk to people i don't get the impression
in sports circles he's much of a schmoozer uh i get the impression he's a the type of guy who
You ever wanted to walk up to the GM or the owner of your team
and say, why the hell did you trade that guy?
I can tell you for a fact that he has.
And for that, he is a legend.
A legend.

Here's your question.
First of all, I have owned a Chestnut Arabian horse
with beautiful blue eyes, beautiful brown eyes,
and it is everything you imagine it is.
Great stats.
Great stats.
So my dad and I have a lot of big feelings about jerseys.
I love the St. Pat's jersey.
My dad hates it.
He hates the Aretna's jersey.
I think it's funny.
what leafs jerseys do you love or hate or both oh like you're you're okay any jersey from the
2000s with that old logo like this was a bad logo it was a bad logo the sundine whole era bad logo
okay bad logo but looking back hindsight they went from the sundine era jersey to the jersey
that Nazem Qadri was drafted in,
that thing stinks.
That was with the no stripe at the bottom, right?
Look at all the jerseys.
Oh, yeah, the pajama one, yeah.
Look at all the lead jerseys in here.
Is there a single one of those ones?
No.
Anywhere?
Bueller?
Not a one.
Oh, you got one.
You got one.
One.
Yeah, that one sucks.
One.
And you're sitting in front of a $1,500 game used jersey.
A Potikarovsky.
Jersey.
Wow.
Conor Karofsky, the biggest name plate in the league.
Love that.
Love that.
All right.
No, that jersey stunk.
The third jersey that they wore throughout the 2002 playoff run, mint.
I had one.
Of course you did.
That was a birthday present.
Billionaire, but yeah.
Billionaire.
All I want for Christmas, besides my two front teeth,
is for them to sell
the St. Pat's jersey
just invert the colors.
Just invert the colors.
I want a green one.
I want a green one.
I'm not a responsible adult.
There's a reason I don't ever wear
a white jersey.
I'm getting mustard on it.
Give me a green jersey.
They announced it.
They're doing it?
Did they announce it?
They announced it.
All right.

deeply with Joffrey Lupul?
Yes.
Everyone had it.
That jersey was spectacular.
