Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Steve Dangle Podcast, powered by Sports Interaction. Wanna bet? Spank Andy? Woo! S-D-P-P. The Steve Dangle Podcast, with your hosts, Steve Dangle, Adam Wilde, and Jesse Blake. Let's go! Alright, I wanna bring you in on something that happened last episode.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Steve decided that he wanted to go viral. And not many people just get to say, I'm going viral now. just decided but you've got the to uh to catch you up jesse sent me a video that he knew was incendiary right jesse yeah and the video is on the front page of reddit yesterday it was oh yeah it was on the new york post as well oh basically the guy leads the video with saying if you don't have a lambo at 24 you need to you're a failure sebastian g sebastian g and then sebastian a is his friend now this set off a 20 minute conversation about this at the end of which steve said i can do that so i'm gonna play for you just a little bit of the video a little bit
Starting point is 00:01:06 of steve saying i can do that and then obviously the tiktok that jesse made so beautifully here we are can you do can you do another nhl one i'm putting this on tiktok and do not explain them your camera your camera okay no context deep here go ahead okay igor sesterkin is one of the worst goaltenders in the nhl he's one of the most underrated goaltenders in the nhl the rangers are exciting they're electric and game after game they propped this guy up anybody could be a great goalie for the rangers anybody he's just taken over for henrik lungquist igor sesterkin getting the vesna was the worst trophy awarding ever in the history of hockey okay so the the the conversation around that was amazing um but
Starting point is 00:02:02 we did do one thing wrong what we did one thing wrong what we do because and and i don't think we could have known beforehand that this would be the one wrong thing okay there were people in the comments good people people listening to the show yes correcting those who were legitimately pissed off oh and you were saying okay you know there were some people that got it and were like no i'm jumping on board on this i fully co-sign like shisterkin sucks and like and and got got behind the joke but i think there were people who were like wanted to defend what shred of honor and credibility that this show might have and i appreciate that but if we're gonna do this again and we're gonna do it the right way we're not doing it today but if we ever do this again
Starting point is 00:02:43 the thing that we have to remember is if you're if you're listening to this and you're commenting you can't say it's satire you can't say it's parody you gotta be like you gotta act like you're a crypto bro and you're right on board with this you're in on the bit right in on the bit and you're now don't go bothering anyone yeah no no yeah don't reply and be like you're fucking stupid no just be the bit just be like wow steve i've always felt the same way that's all you need to do hands up emoji can i read one comment uh from our one of our social media managers jamie i love missy ams oh man she made me laugh so like this comment this is a comment on what you're what you're talking about adam you want people who are joining in on the satire
Starting point is 00:03:25 so this one said it was from matt home 6652 they said i can't believe steve is resorting to this level just to get clicks he's changed so much since he got his lambo like that's good that is good i read that one that's great that's oh man you are now joining in on the bit yeah also poor yams and robert yeah having to deal with that we work well no but also like we work really hard on on this and that's what went viral right right and i'm just going to pull it up right now uh because i i wanted to check and see the next morning a how the tiktok looked because jesse took it home and made it with the video game uh underneath it and i wanted by the way it was perfect um and jesse you actually taught me something but i was like
Starting point is 00:04:11 okay how many videos how many views do i think this gets by the morning and tiktok views are like crazy high because if you watch for a second it counts as a view yeah i'm thinking 5 000 i wake up at 5 a.m it's at 15.7 000 by 9 a.m it's over 20 000 or right now we're at 43 000 views it's not hard to 2500 likes it's not hard and if you repeat that that same strategy incendiary comment complete bullshit to back it up uh 30 second podcast clip yep then you're jordan peters then you're well yeah i mean then you can build a successful tiktok account i mean there's other ways to do it but that's one way to to get your podcast out there and sell your shitty products totally he's fascinating just because like someone showed me a quote of his like about kids and i was
Starting point is 00:05:00 like the thesis is simply raise your kids properly i could have told you that right right well you know if you raise them properly and they get confidence and then they're yeah man they'll they'll be confident adults borderline kermit yeah well so jordan peterson ray romano kermit the frog all in the same room and if it's if they're doing a podcast you wouldn't be able to tell them apart if you're listening no uh so so all that said i first of all i want to say thank you to everybody that went on the one thing jesse that you taught me in the last episode which i did not know i couldn't figure out why all these fucking tiktoks were coming out with video game shit underneath and i guess it's because it's to keep your eyes on the video yeah yeah because
Starting point is 00:05:41 you're it's you're watching something right so you'd be you'd get bored watching people so you're watching the video game and listening to the people yeah we are broken oh yeah we are shattered and broken oh my god it's amazing and i can't wait to do it again those uh those reddit ones are always so funny where it's like hey here's a mario game or whatever playing the background just things on a top thread in a reddit uh the reddit thread you know a lot of those the the top thread reddit and replies are all auto generated yeah those are done by ai there are computer programs that you can do that and people are building tiktok against but i saw a tiktok about a guy explaining how to do that yes but i'm i'm trying to figure out okay so you do that
Starting point is 00:06:23 and let's say your tiktok account gets to a million followers wow a million followers wow with a bunch of reddit generated comments then what you can monetize can you monetize yeah if reaching that amount of people i guess you throw an affiliate link in something if you get a couple thousand people click it you'll make some money okay i don't know you know i wondered about that i don't know my thesis last show was this shit is not difficult where where the guys are just like you're in your 20s you don't have a lamborghini or and then they have the other video and i went back and watched it last night because i'm like i feel like there's shit i forgot there's one video where they say like yeah like what's 150 grand to
Starting point is 00:07:00 me i just spent it on a car so you know i gave it to you and i trusted you and then it was it was so weird because it feels a little bit like a cult these guys are selling the male version uh i wouldn't even call it the male version it's lula row it's it's emma every hey boss girl uh it's literally the the guy version of that um and and and they're selling these courses on drop shipping which i hear you can make money at but i don't really know anymore because there's so many people in this space going i could teach you and and it's funny just watching the when i went through and read their comments and and you guys were absolutely bang on the money when you were like i would be worried if i was 16 years old i would say these guys made it make a really good point
Starting point is 00:07:39 yeah because the only thing you care about when you're like in your early 20s honestly if or at least the only thing i cared about was like man i really like to drive a cool car and i'd like to have a girlfriend well dude you're 16 i think might get me that at 16 you look at uh a 24 year old like they could you know like they're a congressman you think people are so old yes you do you do not even like 24 like when you're in grade 9 and you see the grade 12s they're you know they're huge you're like oh that's a huge adult that's that's an old person they look bigger than you never think you're gonna get that age you know i remember in the third grade i saw two eighth graders fighting and it was on the field and the sound they made like hitting the
Starting point is 00:08:20 ground oh like these it's like two bull elephants fighting you cannot believe there are people in this world that big and looking back they were probably 13 also just uh sebastian and sebastian they don't make that money in a month just just so we know that do we actually know that yeah i mean listen if if i came on here and said i was fabulously wealthy how believable would that be because i'm not i mean there is the celebritybirthdays.com that says i'm worth like 18 million bucks congrats i i'd be i'd be lucky to be worth 1 18th of that and i'm not even that you know not even not even 136 you know people who make a million dollars in a month to do they don't sell drop shipping courses do they host podcasts probably not probably not unless
Starting point is 00:09:05 that's how they made their money yeah unless you're like that's your job yeah maybe like it's just an entire swath of the population that took all the wrong lessons from wolf of wall street like the real jordan belford is big on tiktok and i'm like you shouldn't get to be this ah i don't get it yeah at the end of the movie it was just like there is no justice and then here he is in real life there is no justice right the only justice i think was that he was supposed to pay all that money back but how i don't know if you don't have it you don't have it we should have a we should have a competition we should each do do one next time and then whoever gets the most views wins and they'll have a prize
Starting point is 00:09:47 or something or whoever gets the least amount of views whoever gets the least amount of views gets a punishment instead of rewarding the victor I'm screwed I know what I'm saying like for the next experiment and none you guys
Starting point is 00:10:03 are helping me I think I can beat you actually now that I think about it I'm like no because you know what I got last year that went viral that wasn't really supposed to because I actually believed it was that um uh the connor mcdavid versus austin matthews and i said right now austin matthews is the best player in the nhl and it's because connor was on a cold streak austin was on his way to 60 goals
Starting point is 00:10:26 and for that four-week stretch austin was the better player and uh adam's gonna lose and people were mad adam's gonna do something bad that's defendable that's reasonable no no i got one oh i got one are we doing it no not today we'll save it we'll save it not today not today because you know here's the thing we got bachelor bios later today yeah we do which you gotta get excited about but first we'll say we'll save it for a good day uh the leafs are taking on the jesse blake new york rangers i believe he's bought the sponsorship they're no longer the new york rangers or jesse blake's new york rangers exactly home of shitty shish durkin which is his new uh tiktok name it's terrible uh terrible uh what a what a terrible vesna that he won um third stringer on
Starting point is 00:11:06 most teams but the thing that's starting to really heat up i mean the leafs and rangers cool the game hasn't happened yet the thing that has really started to heat up obviously is the trade rumors around the nhl yes so we're not touching on leasing rangers because there's an important thing that okay that we can talk about we can do that because steve dangle you're going to the game right i am planning on it oh he thinks he might not get there you what no no you have no idea what i'm referencing yeah i do no no no no you gotta say you're going to the game right that is the plan i have a mia coppa for you i don't know what's a mia coppa She did a song with Ariana Grande.
Starting point is 00:11:42 That's right. Also, Jesse, if you can turn on my headphones again, I apologize. Steve Dangle. I'm holding in my hand a gift for you. I'm not wearing that. I just want to know if you can put it on for at any moment today.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Open it up. For anybody listening, I've pulled out a New York Rangers jersey. This better not be. It's gorgeous, too. It is for Steve Dangle. Does it say Dangle on it? No, there's a big hole here.
Starting point is 00:12:11 No, I didn't even see it. On the back, if you'll take a look, is somebody you've talked about previously. Leach! Brian Leach! It's a Brian Leach, number two vintage New York Rangers jersey.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I like that. That's pretty cool. Can you put it on for any moment of tonight's game at Scotiabank Arena? Absolutely not. Why not? Because why would I? Thanks for the gift. Here, Adam, can you put this over there? Half a moment! half a moment you can't put it on can you put it on for the show who am i jesse pollock can you put
Starting point is 00:12:44 it on for the show i could put it on for the show for the show if the rangers win tonight yeah can you put it on while you leave the arena oh that's a good let's do that i like that now who's gonna carry it in you just put it just put it in your hand a little bit or a bit a little bag a little tote bag man oh man can you do that for me at least because then i'm just gonna get confiscated You're going to throw this on the ice aren't you We know who you're going with and he has to film it He has to film you leaving with a Rangers jersey on Oh I love that Jesse
Starting point is 00:13:15 Nice troll That is a handsome jersey though If the Rangers win you'll wear it leaving the arena They have a clean jersey Oh it's the best jersey It's such a great jersey Extremely good And it's very like it's got the America colors
Starting point is 00:13:29 It's so classic Like it'll never go out of style And no NHL badge at the collar because it's old you see love that um okay jesse if i can grab those headphones again i'm sorry it's that they're just they're way hot they're white oh they're too hot oh yeah they're way too hot i want to go down yeah lean out your ears i don't know is it testing testing testing those are mine no those are steve's testing testing that's me a little higher a little higher that's perfect ah okay so i want to ask you guys honest thoughts a little higher for me too if we can
Starting point is 00:14:00 sorry oh my god i know i know we should have done this beforehand before the show um okay i want to ask you guys before we get into trade rumor stuff i mean the islanders game that was the game that we wanted them to play against montreal ah you know it's funny as i can barely hear myself i i feel like i'm sorry i can't there you go i need down a little bit more thank you you guys you guys also swapped headphones at some point because adam you used to be on mix a because it made sense so uh yeah you guys have okay so here's the thing i went to the ear nose and throat and i can actually hear thoughts when when you guys when you guys it's normally fine but when either of you yell it's a screech and
Starting point is 00:14:47 it just busts my ears so that's why i want to bring it down like how do i hear it by now i should be with the two of you honestly is everything good yes everything seems to be okay okay your headphones aren't even on they're on sorry whenever you do that i take them off because i'm like i my ears are hurting yeah because you just spent four hours on the radio that's also true loud pop music bit of a sensi boy you should have cauliflower uh flower ear like i should we haven't we haven't gotten to any topic yes we have we talked about tiktok bro the islanders islanders game i thought so what were you going to say about the because i felt like that's the game we wanted against montreal we got one period of it yeah well i think in both games you gave a
Starting point is 00:15:27 full 40 um the islanders i think the difference is it's not that strange that the islanders outplayed the leafs for one period whereas i'd be you should if you get outplayed by montreal in a period it shouldn't be the way that it was in the second especially a montreal team that's playing shorthanded with one less forward and uh half of the laval uh rocket yeah laval rock is that that's the team name right rocket yeah it was it should have been a better performance by the least and they always seem to fail to get up for those games yes it gave me i i yeah it broke my brain i don't care the montreal series it gave me flashbacks to game five where the habs came out like a bat out of hell and i was like who are you who is this this is the best five minutes they've
Starting point is 00:16:24 played against the leafs and then it was 10 and then it was 20 and then it was i don't think they're gonna win actually you know yeah um kind of went like that third period you leave it to chance yeah sometimes you get stoned by a goalie um what i what i really liked uh in the islanders game is man they really they freaking tore elias or oaken up yeah and and he's one of the best goalies in the league and like a dynamite uh decor um you know potentially a player on that team who could be a leaf in short order who's that i don't there's a there's a pocket a pocket of the fandom that uh really wants scott mayfield well yeah but you think lou lamorello's giving that guy up easy yeah like you know who you're dealing with right not just that like i just have a hard time
Starting point is 00:17:12 believing the islanders and leafs are going to make a deal um just because i think there might be some hurt feelings there or something i think hurt egos oh hurt egos for sure i think that lou thought he had done a good enough job to stick around in toronto and if you look at his record he had but brendan shanahan brought him in and said listen this is this is the deal you're going to mentor this guy for three years and then you're going to retire and he's going to take over and then lou was like but i'm not ready to retire at the end of it which you can't blame him for and he's done some amazing work on the island since then like the new arena and the two you know two conference finals in a row and yep you know all the things that they've done i do think
Starting point is 00:17:53 there's a bit of a rivalry between dubas and lamorello and and it's just by virtue of the fact that they're different personalities and one's got the leafs job and the other doesn't and and is doing a great job with the islanders there's nothing to do i'm not poo-pooing the new york islanders at all when i say that although it was just it was a job he had that he could no longer have they're the coldest team in the league i'm pretty sure they are two two wins in their last 12 and they really lacked high-end scoring oh you can see it they just struggle to score
Starting point is 00:18:22 I don't think Lou values it like I don't think I honestly don't and if you look at the way I mean Ilya Kovalchuk aside yeah like he always has his one guy well and look how that went well yeah but you look at okay look at the Devils teams that won first off it's the
Starting point is 00:18:38 dead puck era right it's offense is his third priority yeah dead puck era he had a great goaltending and great defense You could hit a guy in the head With a shoulder and knock him out So you didn't, you know, the highest scoring player On the other team was going to get a concussion
Starting point is 00:18:54 With Scott Stevens on the ice, so at a certain point You have to sort of, every GM Is going to have biases, Lou Won the cup with Bobby Holy As his leading scorer with like 60 points I think he doesn't value that But what we're seeing in today's NHL Is that your top scoring guys
Starting point is 00:19:11 Your Anders Lees, your Josh Baileys Your Barzels are going to need A little more support all right and the way they're kind of building their support is through the the guys who aren't scorers you know because fantasy teaches you it's out there fantasy teaches you so many little things about a minutiae that's going on and around the league that doesn't really matter until it kind of matters and if you want to boost your hit stats you grab a new york islander it's one hits are counted funny if you have the in arena guy who's just a homer and he's giving
Starting point is 00:19:43 hits and you actually go back and watch the tape and you're like that's not a hit but right now in the top 30 in the hits stats in the league there's four new york islanders matt martin is up there in third he has 182 hits on the season and it's just this team they're trying to pound you to the ground and it hasn't really been working so they don't have the scoring to support it but yeah 182 matt martin made hard body contact that separated his opponent from the puck yeah okay 182 times but like so he does that like three four times a game it gives you an idea of the team they're trying to build just through like knowing and fantasy if you want hit stats that that week go get a new york island oh that's interesting yeah and islanders fans
Starting point is 00:20:27 wanted me to do an if i were you segment and i gave it a shot but they're the most difficult team to read and it's not because lou lamorello is the gm it's because even at their best they weren't like an elite regular season team um they were good they were very good um obviously good enough to make the playoffs and then the playoffs came and they would just engulf you yes no question they're in real real real danger of missing the playoffs here two years in a row two years in a row they missed last year oh yeah they did yeah but that and that one though was a little bit more explainable because we're like well they started with that huge road trip and then they had a really strong second half and you're like okay next year they're gonna nope
Starting point is 00:21:15 they didn't they didn't do anything to the team from last year this year they just i think lou just kind of assumed that they would be better and they haven't really been better trying to think of the moves they made well okay so they didn't even really think i mean they've brought it like many moves they didn't and i think cadre was going to be the one and i also think jt miller that deal was going to happen and then it leaked uh gaudreau apparently wasn't even called yeah remember he said that because he was getting booed and he's like i didn't even get a call what are you talking about right or was that the islanders or the devils it was one of those metro no i think i that's a good question i don't remember now i can tell you right now signings
Starting point is 00:21:57 from uh july through october like the big deal you get down the you do the barzal deal but like san shashnikov who's gone cory schneider in the door uh who's their third noah dobson romano extension keifer bellows uh aho the other aho yeah like those are that's those are all extensions which are very important like there's no real highlights from july through august you you named two acquisitions like romanov and sashnikov and one of them's gone i have to say too that uh also they gave up a first round pick for uh romano really yeah there was a first round up for that draft to montreal uh in exchange for romanov and a fourth man i just wonder you know sutter sutter saying what he said about the flames and their
Starting point is 00:22:55 lack of elite scoring i wonder how lane lambert feels you know like honestly and and that's that is what's holding them back they need to be the guy they have to address this and they opened it like barry trotz did a great job so they bring in lane lambert and still you're i mean their goals aren't that bad but it's not it's bottom third of the league or it's like just top of the bottom third it's not great um there's a team there there's a team there they're like one or two pieces away you know what i mean yeah it's weird though like that's like a really good team is it just a matter of trade for shooters and you're in well i almost wonder like a guy like and they would hate like so first up if they're willing to go after a guy like jt miller who by the way
Starting point is 00:23:36 they're trying to rewrite the script on jt miller in vancouver i don't want to talk about that yeah he's like oh i feel like i've been typecast and the vancouver conducts organization like he's been typecast no we've seen the replace jt you suck on defense and you don't care yeah um uh and also it's friedman's fault if oh it's always yeah it's elliot's fault that you are talking about that you're bad defensively we'll get to the vancouver stuff but if they're willing to go after a guy like that part of me wonders and you would think that where columbus is that they're going to hang on to him but patrick line is an interesting one because he is pure goal scoring yeah and not the best on defense although not horrendously bad like like jt miller is like spotlight bad like
Starting point is 00:24:17 holy dang it's it's going to be a dang it's every everything so i wonder and luke clearly values some of that i wonder if a patrick line a thing might work itself out because i don't know that columbus is totally thrilled with him i don't know if they're going to fully resign him that they want to pay him if he's a part of their window because now he's in his mid-20s he's 24 and they just gave out that contract where it's 8.7 24 yeah yeah wow 8.7 for the next four years that's i don't think that's pretty good that's pretty wow and i just forget how young some of these guys are man for sure but i mean he's been in six six years right and i think i i don't know i just wondered if there was like someone like that who you're willing to accept they have
Starting point is 00:24:58 defensive warts because the rest of the team can can i got a name what do you got i got vladimir tarasenko oh it was rumored who's being rumored to being shopped because st louis looks like they're only going to be on the outside looking in by the playoff time um might be a fit in the island if the islanders think they're gonna go for it that's the thing like i think they should right they should i think it was like it was like saying last week i remember i tweeted last week about the the abs they're they're they're apparently cards on the table they're willing going to go for it again and at that point last week they weren't even in a playoff spot i'm like take that bet if you're the apps go for it and and i think i honestly are the islanders bad at
Starting point is 00:25:35 anything else i don't really think so i think i don't think a trade is going to make it's it's going to fix their offense i think what the islanders should do is become more of what they are and i i don't know how they would make this work granted but uh i think ryan o'reilly is a perfect fit you went for the other one but you gotta generate goals the other blue you do have to generate goals though how are you gonna do that ryan o'reilly's not had a good have you seen his stat line this year win two one he's been out for most of the year okay win two one games baby win two one that's what they're built to do agree and i just don't feel like you can go out and be like here's our designated scorer and then he just well barzell's are designated store
Starting point is 00:26:17 and all you have to do is he's a designated passer passer you're right okay i say ryan Riley's been out but he's played 37 games But he's been a little He's injured right now That's why everybody who's like I was I was hot and horny on the idea and then I was like and then I looked at Yeah I was I was all about Ryan Riley and then I was like
Starting point is 00:26:35 Okay yeah I don't know I just don't know where he is injury wise Even a Taves who can apparently be Had for relatively cheap Yeah they sent a second but Chicago won't Accept that Well just the I think Taves is going to Winnipeg
Starting point is 00:26:52 i think that's a let him go home interesting fit um what was i gonna say it just it taves for anything less than a first round pick is difficult to wrap my head around because we've seen all of taves's career and it's so weird that both him and came it feels like a slap in the face well but he's not good okay like reputation okay reputation like a first round pick like and he'll be great in the playoffs but like he's a half a point of game player on the blackhawks on the blackhawks yeah there's if the island minus 23 this year if the island if any team out there wants to go for it there are interesting pieces on the trade market if it if it's tarasenko or o'reilly if it's jt miller if it's patrick if they want to
Starting point is 00:27:42 get rid of patrick line i don't know with that contract but there's there's players you can get right now i wonder if it's the year of the three three-way trade just the thing i was facing stuff the thing i was going to jump into actually right off the top of the show after the tiktok segment was who the Leafs have their eye on let's do it interesting and uh their Leafs the Leafs apparently according to Frank Zeravalli have their eye on Jake McCabe uh if they want to get him at a four million dollar price tag which is what he makes it's going to cost you a second round pick or a b-level prospect or maybe a combo of both if you want to get them at two million it's going to cost your first rounder and engvall like anyway they have to move somebody to
Starting point is 00:28:24 make this cap right and i and i also think what do we always say when so and so team has their eye on okay that they're just doing their job because because teams should have their eye on everybody like crosby now though uh very interesting um so dubas and kekalainen were at yesterday's canucks blackhawks game now there is a prospects game yes there is a prospects game to put that fire out a little bit but i do feel like it's noteworthy that dubas was in the same building as those three as kekalainen who has been one of his most common trade partners mm-hmm kyle davidson they've made a trade together uh within the past year and uh patrick olivine who they have also made a trade together uh within the past year that's how they got
Starting point is 00:29:13 travis dermott i just find it very interesting that all three of all four of them i guess were in the same building another name that keeps coming up from odd sources is gabrikov and i know that the oilers are for sure interested the least being interested in him doesn't make sense because it doesn't seem to fit their ethos i just the price is astronomical i'm not getting it i'm not getting i don't think he's fine it's fine now dubas also i mean he certainly has a knack of getting guys who are like him and they're good sure david kampf david kampf is the first name that came came to mind almost every stat guy was like i i don't get this i saw it i'm like i don't get this i mean i didn't we didn't know who he was i remember going 1.5 million what are we made of
Starting point is 00:30:00 money and now i'm like kyle if you sign him to an eight-year deal i'll kiss you on the mouth yeah like it's uh it's really difficult to judge how good especially defensemen are on a bad team garbage teams yeah and tase to give tase some credit here i he's on it he's on a historically bad team right now and of course he's a minus 23 because they're terrible yeah they're so bad the canucks just lit them up uh adam i think while we're on the subject of players going places you need to offer a an apology and a correction for oh yeah devils reporting yeah i said the devils were interested in tyler meyers it turned out to be timo meyer timo meyer which is actually a really good fit yeah because uh meyer and he sure were teammates for the swiss national oh yeah but no i
Starting point is 00:30:50 like your idea i like my idea better i like as a devil's fan myers brings the compete level that was great and paper it was great to listen back to because we're all like tyler myers yeah that's why i brought it up i was like this is weird ah well it's gonna happen okay brad hunt sergey samsonov it's gonna happen no so many names it's a uh uh it's gonna be an interesting time there's a lot of like so we're at the we're at the trade deadline spot where um there's just names and if this team were to give this up this is what it might cost there are no direct heated up links and you you aren't seeing any bidding wars quite yet like really like have you seen one link you're like that's definitely like last year of andrew kane to the oilers felt like it was staple that
Starting point is 00:31:37 to the staple that to the wall that's happening um i don't feel like we have that yet we're not quite crystallized to that point i have a sneaking feeling the next week is going to be big there are going to be teams that want to get guys before the all-star break which is a good idea i think so or or they orchestrate a deal and then they pull it off as soon as you come back from the all-star break like how they do with the world juniors and sort of the ohl yeah the roster freeze is coming soon so it's coming soon do you know when it is no no i'll find out um google just feels like uh There's a lot of smoke. I'm wondering where the fire is.
Starting point is 00:32:17 NHL roster freeze. I thought there was only roster freeze in December. I think there is one around the All-Star break, but I don't... I don't think there is. Really? Yeah. I think you guys have that wrong. Can you be traded at the All-Star game?
Starting point is 00:32:31 Didn't that happen in the NBA? Really? Didn't that happen to DeMarcus Cousins? I don't know. Boogie? I don't know. Let me see. One more thing.
Starting point is 00:32:40 No, I guess maybe it doesn't. I thought it did. I think it's only the December one. I just pulled up around, oh man, NHL.com. Can I read you this? From December 17th, 2008. How did this come up? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:53 It just came up in my Google results. The impending decision by free agent Matt Sundin on where he will continue his NHL career may be complicated slightly by the NHL's holiday roster freeze. Awful. He is reportedly weighing final offers from the Vancouver Canucks and New York Rangers.
Starting point is 00:33:05 i feel like i was at the fan 590 uh when he decided to sign i want to say it was at night and everyone was in a tizzy but not everyone was there on account of it was night right so it was like the night host like holy shit all right so we have the biggest hockey story in many a year says that uh had he chosen to sign or had if he chooses to sign with the rangers they will have to make a bunch of moves to fit him under the cap and i bet i bet back then the salary cap was probably like 50 million oh if that crazy to think isn't it wild that like no wonder the Leafs were shit for so long like they didn't get it they didn't get it but they also had like a 75 million dollar payroll and then overnight it's like by the way it's 42
Starting point is 00:33:56 and a half yeah and they didn't use like i remember they had compliance buyouts and stuff that you could use and they didn't compliance buyout mats and see not the original one the original one i thought it did no that was 2013 and they got like grabbo i don't i thought the compliance buyouts in the original one i'm pretty sure they did because i remember you could buy out players and i thought they because because like it was sunday was making like eight belfor was making six and they bought him and they rolled the salaries back like 20 if you already had a pre-existing contract but i think what they should have done is probably been like listen mats we're gonna pay you the whole the whole amount of money we're gonna buy you out and then we're gonna bring
Starting point is 00:34:32 you back at a smaller amount they probably made that illegal oh yes you can't do that yeah you're right you're right um okay so there's gonna be a lot more kind of trade stuff but i just thought it was interesting like jake mccabe leaves have their eyes on him who would you say and what would you say if you're if you're dubious now as of today what is the position you're looking for like let's nail it down someone asked me a really good question um not me then what no definitely not uh it was uh what do the leafs need more a left or a right d and i thought about it they need d like well and that was i was kind of like i don't i don't know if they need it that bad they don't maybe left here's what the leafs need or right i don't know like if they can
Starting point is 00:35:20 significantly improve at either position you take it and then you push guys down the lineup But how do you do that Without breaking the bank Do you guys want me to read the compliance buyout stuff Yeah yeah I'd love to know Before we jump into this conversation So there was compliance Buyouts after the
Starting point is 00:35:39 12-13 lockout It began 48 hours after the Conclusion of the Stanley Cup and ended July 4th 2013 The second NHL compliance buyout period Was the next year So June 2014 Ran through June 30th
Starting point is 00:35:55 uh 2014 so there's two periods where you could do compliance buyouts after that lockout and and some of those 13 and then 14 some of those buyouts are wild because you can still find them on team's cap friendly page yeah like i don't know if bris gallows is still going so avalier we have uh also in 0405 there's unlimited compliance by oh both situations oh yeah there was a period uh from july 23rd to july 29th in 2005 when you could do unlimited compliance bios i have a list here of some of the compliance bios uh you're talking about helia breeze galoff so that was a 14 year 23 million dollar contract that was compliance bought out like just the buyout yeah that was no that was the contract 23 million over 14 years that's it i guess that was the amount that was
Starting point is 00:36:45 bought yeah so it was 14 of your contract 23 million dollars was bought out uh the leafs compliance bought out mike commissaric in 2013 and mikhail garbovsky both of their contract good and bad uh david booth was compliance bought out by the vancouver canucks ed jovanovsky by the panthers scott gomez and thomas caberly by the canadians really yeah uh caberly caberly that That was 2013. Rick DiPietro, Islanders, Wade Redden, and Brad Richards by the Rangers.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Oh, Brad Richards was a huge one. DiPietro was a huge one. It was a 15-year contract before it was bought out. Daniel Breer of the Flyers, and Steve Montador of the Blackhawks. Those are kind of the big names. Yeah, well, Steve Montador
Starting point is 00:37:33 also was one of the big pro NHLPA guys throughout the lockout. And just like, what was that other guy's name? Chris Campoli. If you were one of those guys who was outspoken You didn't play again Because they were fringe guys anyway
Starting point is 00:37:48 Alan Walsh has detailed that I honestly think you should read the book On Steve Monador I think a lot of people stay away from it Because it's sad, and it is sad But it actually kind of details some of the stuff about the NHL You go, okay, interesting And lastly
Starting point is 00:38:04 TSN 1050's Carlo Koliakovo Was bought out by the Detroit Red Wings ah carlo good payday yeah i was so excited for him when he was drafted uh by the leafs because i was just like the emperor of italian names has been drafted by hey although frank corrado is pretty good dsn is really cornering that market and then abruzzi came along and took the throne yeah abru big old bunch of consonants and oh yeah and vowels and and hands like this feel bad for gordon miller given the conversation we had because
Starting point is 00:38:47 he was the one who first said abruzzese and like people were like that's not how you say it and he's like but that's how he wants it said i talked to his dad yeah i talked to the guy i um when bates bataglia was with the marlies i was like hey it's batalia right and he was like yeah but please don't wow basically like is that italian yeah but battaglia oh i could never figure out what his background was bates battaglia well i don't know how italian how would you say bates is batis i mean he could have he could have one of his parents wasn't italian oh i don't know like me oh glin doesn't really work you know oh hey people were very upset about me calling margier denno a spicy meatball um because they don't know you're italian they didn't know and they're like
Starting point is 00:39:37 oh okay fine yeah all right one of us one of us oh pies on first medical let's go hey speaking of Uh, did, did the Calgary Flames fans really need to boo Johnny Gaudreau? No, no, no. I'm serious. Let's look at the situation. Johnny Gaudreau did not get Calgary's real offer until like a minute before the deadline for him to become a free agent. They were messing around with him the summer before going, Johnny, yeah, we're going to
Starting point is 00:40:12 be, we'll offer you eight. Yeah, we'll offer you 8.1. and at a certain point you got to think okay well if they're not really willing to offer me even 80 85 of market rate then maybe i should consider somewhere else and then he goes the entire season thinking about what if i played somewhere else instead of thinking i'm a calgary flame for life and then they go okay fine fine fine fine what did you want okay we'll give you that i don't under i don't blame him for for going you know what i've moved on already adam that is a completely logical and fair point but have you considered how fun it is in sports to
Starting point is 00:40:51 say you were wrong you big idiot dude islanders fans i mean some of them were like oh you didn't let the team know and blah blah but like also don't let your captain who's like the best center free agent in a generation go to free agency maybe um but what made it so much better and what caused such a like a metallica concert like frenzy for his return to the island is the leafs were doing well islanders were doing even better yeah you were wrong you big idiot we don't need you that you think they would have chanted that if they were in last no yeah but you look at the flames who are doing come see come saw they're not going to win the division or anything but look at the look at the blue jackets look at the state of i just thought i'm like oh yeah you're
Starting point is 00:41:39 right here the blue jackets are terrible but we knew that it wasn't like he signed there he was like i want to win a cup in columbus this year we knew they were going to miss the playoffs we knew they i don't know if we knew they were this bad but they're pretty bad and and so and also with the flame there was that that um johnny gradro sign like uh this is the face of a man who's not going to make the playoffs and i'm like yeah you know that last week you were you guys were not in the playoffs either you might not make it either it doesn't make the sign incorrect does not make the sign incorrect okay my favorite form of chirping was people who taped over their gadreau jersey and just put huber yeah no hubert and they just kept the o
Starting point is 00:42:18 i was a big fan of that that is very funny it's creative as hell i love that that is very see that that kind of stuff is fun but like booing you don't have a product i don't mind booing so much like some people i think are like you should never boo ever i'm like no fuck off i'm a fan i can boo But I felt like there are times Where booing is relevant But it'd be like if Matt Sundin came back to Toronto And Toronto had already tried to trade him We brought up Matt Sundin earlier
Starting point is 00:42:43 And we booed him That's so different When Sundin left we were all sort of like Yeah I don't know fair And there was a section of the fan base That like Tavares didn't forgive him For not getting traded I was pissed at him for not accepting the trade
Starting point is 00:42:59 He should have gone to Philly And they should have got Jeff Carter Who said Tavares? You mean Sundin? oh sundin the sundin situation was more like tovar like tovar's that way piss that tovar as for oh my bad piss that sundin for that yeah whereas goudreau it's like hey man we won the division last year what the where the fuck are you going yeah and like his whole thing was uh i want to be close to my family and play in the states was it not yes did he not like detail that and then in his players tribune article so like i could get well i i think goudreau did
Starting point is 00:43:33 everything is that he has like he has the right to do that so i think it's fair ah what if they're both right like i think it's fair and like but as a fan i think you have the right to boo him if you're like that was you didn't want to stay here you left yeah also um credit to calgary fans fans they clapped and cheered him during the video tribute oh that's nice and then booed him right after it ended you can't get more correct than that ah that is the right they they booed him right before the tribute started playing and then they they let the tribute play and clap and then they start booing him again if it was inappropriate like there was there were some things floating around oh we should say this
Starting point is 00:44:13 and we should chant that and no most fans were just like boo oh there's the video yeah okay now boo thank you for your time here also now you're playing against us yeah i like that you're wearing the other i didn't realize the tribute thing i forgot the tribute thing i just saw the booing thing um i want also there's a couple things i want to throw out there first off tonight barclay goudreau and austin matthews will be miked up so there's going to be a lot of uh tnt broadcast yeah yeah because it's new york rangers so the leafs can actually be featured on american broadcast i also want to ask you this and i want you to play this video this is from tamu solani's instagram jesse i'm going to throw it at you oh no and i want to know if this counts as tampering
Starting point is 00:44:50 oh boy and you're gonna like this video taboo's got one of the best low-key senses of humor in the nhl as far as i'm concerned the guy's funny got he's charming there's a lot going on there and obviously no disrespect to the winnipeg jets but he's anaheim ducks for life right so yeah so what do you think this video i'm about to show you Does and says well Jesse's getting set up Is he Hmm well the Ducks are real bad Is he talking about trading
Starting point is 00:45:22 Someone from the Ducks to the Jets No Someone from the Jets to the Ducks No I don't know Someone should sign with the Ducks I don't know Someone should sign with the Jets
Starting point is 00:45:35 It's about the Ducks It is about the Ducks It is not about the Jets I can give you that Okay let me see this all right okay you ready ready play it all right ducks uh locker room here a lot of great young players and here's nobody here you know what i'm gonna help you let's put the next year player here welcome so does he work for the ducks i don't know i don't know actually so so tamu is uh in the
Starting point is 00:46:12 dressing room if you're listening and he's going to you know trevor zegras troy terry's looking at their lockers and there's like an empty one and he puts conor bedard on a piece of paper and puts it up on the thing ah that's funny i don't even care if he works for the ducks because you know why because he has no power over where conor bedard also don't you don't you feel like don't you feel like if he works for the ducks of course he wants him to go to the ducks yeah isn't it just implied that he wants a guy who might honest to goodness might be better than mcdavid dude he's crazy like he's bedard is wildly good wildly good i don't remember i don't maybe this is recency bias i do not remember the hype being this fever pitch for
Starting point is 00:46:57 mcdavid or it's at very least equal oh i think it was equal because because it was not just mcdavid it was mcdavid eichel it was mcdavid eichel but the i think what helped prop that up and the hysteria of of all that is the leafs and oilers had ridiculously good chances of getting them oh yeah and it almost came down like the least for the other ball oh they were the other ball now hey we ended up with matthews it's fine no it was uh mitch marner i know but like we get marner and then matthews we would never have got matthews if we'd got mcdavid we'd have been too good yeah right yeah um so so i want to ask you guys here's a here's a quote that's not getting i'm moving on from it does it look like timo salati is a member of the ducks organization
Starting point is 00:47:44 so he can do whatever he wants he was an agent but i guess oh is he i don't know scott niedermeyer special advisor to hockey operation he also apparently runs a lot of junior teams in the area like trains a lot of kids and stuff which is cool um the nhl account occasionally tweets out things that i i think because it's the nhl account people actively are like i'm not gonna pay attention to that right sure because it's like gary betman's place but they do tweet out some useful stuff and some good gifs and some good stats gary betman does not run the nhl and i can guarantee you gary betman doesn't have twitter uh but but i love this um occasionally you get a bizarro quote and not enough focus is put on it and i want to credit mikey stevens for
Starting point is 00:48:32 saying hey why isn't anyone making a big deal out of this now before i get into it steve can you please stand up and do your j woodcroft stance oh okay do your j woodcroft stance just just to the side he pops his butt a little more he's a he's a butt popper yeah there it is there it is there it is okay now sit back down and here's what do you know about vincent deharney uh he's a uh big right-handed i think defenseman for the oilers i want to say he's a rookie yeah so jay woodcroft says we called him the seaweed man yeah because players have to swim through seaweed to get to our net that's what jay woodcroft said about vincent de arne what does that mean the seaweed man for like how does a nickname make a player worse i feel like like his play is about to
Starting point is 00:49:26 plummet now that we all know he has the worst nickname in humanity the seaweed man the seaweed man that's like friggin what's paul fenton i'm just pulling that up right now matt zuccarello is like a lizard with his stick yeah you know how lizards do with their stick if you watch the way he dissects the offensive zone in particular i told him when i was talking to him that he's like a lizard the way a lizard licks his tongue out and uh and sticks it as far out as he can and then retrieves whatever he's trying to get what does the seaweed man thing mean i guess i guess swimming through seaweed is it's not that difficult to swim through seaweed by the way the front of the net is you just stop that you're gonna get away i don't know you're it's hard
Starting point is 00:50:07 to get there like seaweed's gross but like you you don't you can still swim through it no problem no it's no it's like a cartoon where it wraps around your ankle and then you you drown there were too many kids shows that convinced me seaweed was going to wrap around my ankle and i would drown quicksand yeah and also there'd be razor blades in my uh halloween candy that's well that was just uh yeah that was something that was perpetuated by just an old wives tale i think and i also had to be tremendously terrified of quicksand and also the bermuda triangle Oh, big problems with the Bermuda Triangle They should call him Bermuda
Starting point is 00:50:43 Because the front of the net is like The Bermuda Triangle You don't even try to You can't enter it I like that, that actually works a lot better It does See, the Loch Ness Monster was really big What if he gets me?
Starting point is 00:50:59 What if he swam to Lake Ontario? I always thought Nessie was friendly though I don't know, is Nessie real? I don't know We should ask Steve's wife there's uh no the most dangerous thing about loch ness is the roads that's the first place i ever saw a car flip over live really yeah because the roads are wild absolutely wild it's just full of locals like ah speed up and then you get because it's like three feet wide right and everybody's
Starting point is 00:51:28 driving tiny cars i saw a guy like actually like climbing out of the window and i was like wow that's wild and you've been to the town of loch ness i've i don't know if that's what it's called but like i saw it and you know you keep looking at the water and no they're not there sure is deep sure i bet it is a very apparently like a weirdly deep lake can you fish there but like as a kid you think this is going to be a problem in your everyday life what if i'm over there and i gotta swim yeah what if i'm freezing cold up there yeah this is one lake in the whole world and you're like what that's the one i'm scared yeah say with bigfoot you know bigfoot was a big thing yeah but what if they get you but bigfoot was so ridiculous because there are scarier animals that
Starting point is 00:52:15 we know exist why did we have to be afraid of the mythical one you want to be afraid of a real animal mountain lion those you will find out in the woods damn lynx you will find that that would have been a bear you will find that a black bear yeah black bears will run away from you grizzly bear you're toast you're done goodbye vincent de hernay is he's like a lynx which is like our mascot so he's like lynxie the lynx or whatever their name is you want it you want something scary if they're they should the oiler should do you know that bigfoot video where he's walking through the woods and he kind of looks to the side you know that's proof they should do that it's not a guy in a suit it's proof for sure not a guy in a suit that he rented that weekend
Starting point is 00:52:56 they should do that with their lynx cat because their mascot is still the most terrifying mascot out in the league oh yeah why does it have abs i don't know it doesn't need to have them no no it's unnecessary hunter hunter the link hunter hunter the look at that he's terrifying hellcat what is that like he's got hunter for hire i clicked to book hunter for your next event you can book hunter for an event guys guys if we ever go out to edmonton for like a sdp night and we we need to do that we have to book hunter yeah and cover him and seaweed we gotta give him like a seaweed man hunter for hire that phrase makes me uncomfortable yeah man i don't know what it is um that is look at that purge ass outfit that's horrifying oh my god he's scary mascots
Starting point is 00:53:53 they're supposed to be kid friendly yeah gritty i'm sure they are he is terrifying gadgets and gizmos and he's just he's pointing at me which appears to be an indication that i should enjoy the final moments of my life before i'm mauled i would be seriously worried about hunter eating me alive yeah oh yeah if i was like seven years old look at those teeth yeah absolutely look at those eyes not as cuddly i mean even gritty is like i'm sure that could be scary to a super young kid but like gritty is hilarious you didn't need to have up is hilarious eyes it's far too accurate of an animal it's like the uncanny valley but for a lynx and some sort of prehistoric alarm bells are going off in my head to take that off the screen
Starting point is 00:54:44 like him him pointing at you please stop i'm gonna eat you you're next i'm gonna eat you organs first before killing you um is that what links does has jt miller been pacing himself this entire year and we're just too dumb to recognize it yeah well listen now rick talkett has come in and and they've they've actually come out and confirm the insiders have come out and they've all said well they brought in rick talkett because jt miller's a bit of a concern for the vancouver connects because they're committed and rick talkett as they as you might know from our last episode was known as the phil castle whisperer um and you know good assistant coach yep made him a great assistant coach running the offense but now he's
Starting point is 00:55:28 the head coach and you know you're a head coach you don't want focusing on one player but the what's happened already is they realized they got a bit of a pr nightmare with jt miller because he's outwardly frustrated the highlights are are damning like his defensive highlights when you see and i said let's call them highlights but when you see those gifts you can't run away from the fact that he is just not involved in a lot of plays shocking shockingly bad so so now what vancouver is going to do is they're going to spin and uh what what rick talkett did and i think this is a quite quite a smart move if you're going to try to get people off of this is uh i just don't think this is what he said about miller i just don't think you can play those types of guys that
Starting point is 00:56:08 many minutes 24 23 minutes i don't think that's what we're looking to do here so jt is put in positions and maybe sometimes he's pacing himself now they want you to believe yeah in the final minute with an empty net he's pacing himself they want you to believe that a hockey player 28 years old in the best physical fitness you could possibly be is that affected by an extra four minutes they really learn nothing from the bending era shut up right stop talking remember for years like we we were on that since like 2014 stop putting jim benning in front of a mic it's not fair to the guy he can't say words well he literally he puts a bunch of them together and people go that seems not good and then we all come to the consensus that it's not good right
Starting point is 00:57:02 and then the team's bad confirming that it is not good daniel wagner rightly points out he said for the record in his article at vancouver is awesome.com miller is averaging 20 44 in ice time per game and has cracked the 23 minute mark five times this season yeah that's exactly it he's averaged 20 minutes and 42 seconds as of uh right now and sounds fair last night last night he played 19 minutes and 16 seconds under in the first game totally normal yeah he was the boss so it's about the same so talk it said i'm not sure in today's game if you win you can play 24 minutes penalty kill power play 24 six on five he said i think what happens is you get into the habit of pacing yourself i've coached some elite players sydney crosby plays 19 to 20 minutes
Starting point is 00:57:46 a game now to be fair to his comments miller is 12th among nhl forwards in ice time per game but okay but like that could be a second or two and he could like off that he could be at 20th yeah he he plays 19 to 20 minutes a game he makes eight million dollars he plays exactly where talk it wants him to play who's ahead of him um i don't have that also uh he played a little on the pk like he had a minute and a half shorthanded last night and like so talk at you i get it game one but like if that's your strategy you're not really changing anything because that's how he's played so far right and i think he said a bunch of words um he said uh he said uh he did say that he's going to probably reduce his penalty kill time um and basically he said i was an emotional
Starting point is 00:58:36 player but there's a there's different emotion it's okay to have emotion on the bench or tell your linemate let's go but i think when you're on the ice you got to be careful of your body language emotion if you're upset doesn't mean this is not an indictment on jt i'm just saying it's your body language you can't stop back checking because you're mad at somebody and that to me is the quote dude what a nightmare what an absolute nightmare do we not think anyone in the canucks organization over the last year was like hey maybe like don't slam your stick and scream at your teammates all the time i'm sure somebody told them yeah no boudreaux was just like ah just sort of showed up got a paycheck i doubt that yeah i doubt that highly me too
Starting point is 00:59:17 dude he's one of the most visually shocking players in the nhl and it's weird because like I wouldn't be totally flabbergasted to see Miller have like this resurgence because it's honest to goodness about effort. There are some players who just between the ears, they do not have both sides of the puck programmed well. And some guys are really good defensively. And they're also where offense goes to die. And some guys are really good offensively and they just sort of get their
Starting point is 00:59:49 wires crossed. And you can develop on one side. Like Jack Hyman was always good on offensive side, but he had stone hands for the first couple of years in the league. And then, and now he's like scoring all the time. He's amazing. Banging in,
Starting point is 00:59:59 banging in, banging in. Yeah. And like Miller is like, we constantly see clips where dude, do you know, no one, no radio or TV host in Toronto would have vocal cords left if a leaf
Starting point is 01:00:15 consistently played like that. Right. They would have been run out of town a long time ago. and we'd be calling for the general manager who signed him to an extension to be fired but he just got here it's a nightmare it's a nightmare um i'm gonna give you a couple quotes but i i don't want to i don't want to waste too much time on this okay uh these this is not vancouver related but we're gonna move on uh i don't want to waste too much time on this because of the source okay and i know you're gonna roll your eyes at me but it's gary batman
Starting point is 01:00:44 and i'm gonna give you two quotes oh first one is he believes that he said that nobody in the nhl tanks because of the weighted lottery and my question is everybody's like oh what is he think we're stupid no but what is he gonna say what's he gonna say certainly not the truth certainly no why would he tell the truth no that's not his job his job is to represent the nhl the best way possible he's not gonna tell the truth are you kidding me when's the truth ever suited those those guys no way we should stop running this but the one the one quote in and we maybe we should but the one quote that did that does get to me that i think is actually damaging is every year or so somebody asked him
Starting point is 01:01:25 about quebec city oh this one and last year or like mid pandemic was like 21 22 somewhere in there he said you know the quebec i believe the premier of quebec ran on a platform of he's going to try to get quebec city back in the nhl and said lego i think it was lego and then he said he said uh i'm gonna get barry gary betman on the phone and we're gonna talk about this so to satisfy that because again he also has the montreal canadians in his jurisdiction gary was like sure i'll get on the phone with you and they had a conversation about it so francois lego lived up to his promise gary looks like the good guy but every couple of years or so Gary Bettman fucks with Quebecers and this is the next one he said Gary Bettman uh this is
Starting point is 01:02:08 from Renaud Lavoie uh Gary Bettman just said that Jeff Molson always told him he would be in favor of expansion in Quebec City if it happens one day okay cool that tells me absolutely nothing but you know it just drives up the price of other markets you know that that that that says nothing but to a Quebec hockey fan who's not given that more than a glance and I'm not saying if it was Ontario, if it was Boston, it doesn't matter where you're from. That might give you that shred of hope. And I think it's kind of shitty that they continue to go back to this. Gary doesn't want a team there.
Starting point is 01:02:40 Jeremy Jacobs and the executive don't want a team there. They don't believe it's a viable market. So I just wish they would say right now, there is not... Jeremy Jacobs, I'll give him credit. He at least said, I don't think the sponsorship dollars are there. I don't think the money's there. I think we'd be losing money. At least he said that.
Starting point is 01:02:58 yeah gary's like well hey quebec listen also who gives a shit what the owner of the bruins says well the owner of the bruins is the head of the nhl executive this is the problem right right he's he's more powerful than gary it's jeremy jacobs guys and he might be right by the way he might be absolutely bang on the money there's no possible way we can make money on this and we're going to end up in a mid-90s situation again it you know winnipeg's a little bit different there are there are smaller city too but they have the the family that owns them is among the 50 richest in the world it almost feels like the more they talk about quebec the less likely it is to happen because maybe i'm misremembering but it feels like the winnipeg
Starting point is 01:03:39 jets went back to winnipeg overnight yes overnight that's because they found an owner that was like that's how those things usually happen if there's a lot of noise around something's not happening look at how hamilton and jim ball silly like that's how the nhl it will all these pro sports hates when there's a lot of noise around this and the reason gary keeps perpetuating the idea that quebec city is a viable market for an nhl team is that he needs a boogeyman to bully all of these cities that currently have an nhl team to spend money and build stadiums that's what he needs he need you need the boogeyman as the commissioner to be like hey if you don't get your shit together here in this market we're gonna move you and you can go somewhere else
Starting point is 01:04:16 as the commissioner it's it's an evil strategy it's an evil thing to do but that's what he He needs to have this narrative play out for the next hundred years of this league so they can always have something and say, you know what? We're going to move you. There's a market there. Quebec City has the arena. The Vodadome or Vodafone Dome is right there. It's ready to go.
Starting point is 01:04:39 If you don't build an arena here with public money, we're going to move you. And he needs that boogeyman. So he's always going to say Quebec City is a market that they can move to. Remember, it was like Edmonton and Seattle and then Calgary and Seattle. Oh, look, they expanded to Seattle. Oh, crazy. By the way, they're not moving any teams because there's too much money now in bringing new teams into the league.
Starting point is 01:05:00 You're not moving franchises anymore. You're not moving cities anymore. All the big cities are taken care of. You're expanding to a 40-team league. The reason the NFL did it was because there was no team in Vegas and there was no team in LA. You need the idea that it could happen, but it's never going to. It's never going to happen.
Starting point is 01:05:16 If anything, they expand. What happens to my body every time we read a Gary Bettman quote? it so you ever take you ever accidentally take nighttime medication during the day well i did that's why i don't want to spend too much time on it but i just wish gary please stop fucking with quebec uh lastly before we get into bachelor buyouts i just want to send a little buyouts less bachelor buyouts i like that bachelor bios which we've been teasing for a while thank you for your patience like the little uh do a little shout out to uh adam bishop aka drag like pull for joining uh the um hurricanes as a data engineer
Starting point is 01:05:54 congratulations that's another thing you were talking about the vox media layoffs uh the sb nation thing but vox media owns sb nation they cut all the nhl blogs and those guys he's isn't he not one of those guys was he not a pension he was a long time pension plan puppets guy yeah right i'm pretty sure and so you know there's somebody that that how else would he have gotten the job if he hadn't if he hadn't this a great body of work and developed a following and you know 10 years ago there were actual journalists journalists saying this is never going to be a part of the game and these guys are all getting hired and it's those places that these people started whether they continued on in media or they went to nhl friend offices there's been other guys
Starting point is 01:06:35 eric tulsky who hired him was one of those guys oh was he i believe so i can't i can't remember and um tyler dello tyler dello it's a bummer when those things go away um and uh and so you know like anybody that that asks like that's to me part of the whole ethos of what we're trying to do with game over it's our small contribution give people an opportunity to actually develop and become we have some people with a ton of experience on there we have some people with zero experience on there and the whole point is let's give people that platform to grow a following and kill it and like they are where are you supposed to start out i don't know i don't i don't know anymore like so many of the places i worked at or interned at are gone they're gone i think i think at the end
