panago pizza presents s d p the steve dangle podcast with your host steve dangle adam wild
and jesse blake let's go for anybody not watching steve right now is holding his
one month old baby one month today wish me a happy birthday how does that work happy month day
i don't know i think that's pushing it oh buddy excuse me i'm your father can you and do you hear
the chaos going on outside the room iggy's rubbing his head on the carpet oh excuse me leo excuse me
mr leo leo is a fussy boy and he's also a shrimp he's uh he's eight and a half pounds at a month
old but he was born two weeks early so like we got a grade on the curve and what's he gonna be
in two weeks and i haven't slept for a month and uh it's just a it's just a lot of fun it's just a
lot of fun there just like what's uh the one thing that caught you off guard about being a dad that
like nobody prepared you for and then you realize you're like oh what i didn't even know this you
have one thing or a couple things yeah the so you know i keep bringing up all the dad books and
stuff um but they did not properly prepare me for the unbelievable difference between boy diapers
and girl diapers so i was around adam one time when everly peed while he was changing her
and his reaction was oh oh evy oh no did you pee oh leo it's a crisis because he's got
Other equipment man
And he pees on
The diaper he was in
The diaper I was going to put him in
Diapers that are on the side
Our record for diapers used in a single change is four
And we've done it three times
Is it just like a hose that just spreads
That you can't turn off
And you're like stop
We're talking about you
One day you're going to be an adult
And this story is going to be out there
He doesn't even know he's on a podcast
You're on a podcast
It's a Leo podcast
it is his second appearance you're famous you've been on tv it's been on tv oh yeah paul paul
dissonant made a very inappropriate joke did you see that no no so i was uh in our nhl 20
tournament on sportsnet i beat alex to brinkett narrowly in the first round uh so my second round
opponent was supposed to be jordan biddington and they did an episode where you know my chair
is empty and oh where's steve is he ducking jordan biddington and i was like guys i have to pull
out of the tournament i had a baby blah blah and they're like oh that's cute that's cute and paul
biz nasty just goes i guess that's the only thing he's pulling out of
my mom watched that no no well listen all right also did you see iggy there it's a madhouse
it's a madhouse also obviously leo doesn't startle when i yell so that's that's been
the big plus because i've been shooting videos non-stop for now for now for now hopefully he
doesn't i don't know if he develops that uh the other the other thing is just um hey buddy here
i'm gonna give you back to mom how's that okay leo back to mommy and uh we need to bring up
um sad news because since you've had a member of your family enter you've had two members of
your family leave yeah man um well yeah Iggy sits right down next to me so we didn't talk about this
because it seemed inappropriate to bring up when Chris Johnson was on last show but uh Leo was one
week old and uh for the first few days of Leo's life uh we were sans dogs uh they were at um my
in-laws place uh Charlie came home on this well Iggy and Charlie came home this Saturday and
charlie was kind of weird uh and his gums were pale and he drank a ton of water so i'm like okay
he's dehydrated sunday he makes a comeback he's still not really eating properly but like he's
going after chicken like crazy he's drinking lots of water he appears to have high energy
monday he can barely stand up and i had to carry him to the car brought him to the vet
and um they basically said uh if it's something to do with his spleen we can
probably save him um if it's spread he's done and it's spread he was done so that was it that
freaking sucked and then probably after that and then my grandpa passed um 95 and i mean it's i
mean it's it sounds horrible that like it sounds like i took charlie's death worse than my
grandfathers but your life was a life to celebrate yes yes and i'm up on the show before because he
fought in d-day and you've told some stories oh he fought in d-day he uh these american soldiers
rescued him when he was wounded on a beach in salerno italy and um uh he misunderstood them
so he punched a bunch of them he thought they were gonna they they wanted to cut off his leg
they said no you idiot we want to cut off your pants and he said oh okay and um you know he led
yes like you said he led a life to be celebrated um and you know my parents said hey can you call
when you have a chance and i knew you know so you know whereas charlie was we were shocked
like we had no indicators that he was uh even slowing down or anything but not to start the
show with the bummer because everybody out there listening this feels for you because it's just a
roller coaster of emotions to have a baby and then have two other members of your family taken away
from you like i can't our hearts go out to you steve oh buddy thank you but like you don't um
you don't deal with things the best when you're sleep deprived and that's all i am right now and
that was the second thing i was going to say to you is uh they tell you like oh you're going to
be tired and i'm like i work in sports like i i was a i was an intern while doing a full-time
course load and working at the zoo i know i know tired i'm not scared of tired this is tired this
is ridiculous um i had i've had i'm getting better as leo gets better i'm obviously getting better
um but uh yeah like i'm actually enjoying burying my head in work now because this is the most this
is usually a very anxious time of year this should be a time of year where i get to relax
and just chill and have a few beers with my buddies and i'm always like i haven't been
doing anything for a month and i feel lazy and my career is over and i'm gonna lose my youtube
channel and i'm just gonna friggin how am i gonna pay for the house um but now i'm you know neck
deep in work like the first round of the playoffs is usually chaos to work and the lead into that
is going to be 52 games in nine days right in this unprecedented event and the whole time i got this
infant to take care of and i'm dealing with other things when was the last time you had
eight continuous hours of sleep oh at least june 19th because june 20th is when we went to the
hospital so it was at least june 19th that's absurd but i don't i might not i i don't know
because at that point i still thought i had like two weeks left so i'm having a good time i'm
staying up all night playing nhl um i find i'm sorry not really preparing no no four weeks left
yeah i got i got lots of time and uh no no i did not did did i go through the whole story of how
everything i don't remember i don't remember anything we haven't done enough shows yeah we've
we've been kind of taking it slow because this should be,
these two months should be our off season and a week,
a week tomorrow the NHL is back. Right. So, yeah.
So we're going to be going until whenever,
like next summer essentially,
because it's going to be the off season and then it's going to be the new
season and then it's going to be the next off season and then we'll finally
have a break.
so as you'll notice anybody watching and anyway listening uh adam's not here he was on virgin this
this week and actually next week on virgin radio so he's off vacation there so we decided hey
take a actual vacation when you get off the podcast and you get off the radio go enjoy
this week and then uh maybe next week it'll be the three of us we'll see
we'll play but as soon as we're we're just rolling and that's so soon that's so so soon
I can't it kind of snuck up on everybody it did I had the seven seven video series that I planned
on doing breaking the Leafs season the Leafs 70 game season so far breaking that down into
seven ten game segments and I had that idea and um I reached out to Robert Malloy RS Malloy
on Twitter um because I knew they know my LFR videos better than I do and I was like can you
go through cut some of your favorite clips I paid them to do it paid interns although this person's
not our intern but um uh yeah I was gonna do them and upload them over the two weeks that I had left
and Leo said that's cute um and I'm like oh it's okay I'll get used to being a dad you know and
then uh the other day I'm sitting there and I'm like okay I want to upload one per day this is
nine days oh shit like I gotta do this right now or I'm not gonna do it ever and I've already paid
for it so they might as well get it done might as well get it done so i think three went up today
i've already shot four and five so i gotta edit those i gotta shoot two more i gotta shoot for
something else on friday that i don't think i'm allowed to talk about yet and then of course
there's obviously the funeral and everything and i'm raising a child and and i know that wants to
I'm doing a Zoom call tomorrow.
We're recording something with Justin Bourne.
I'm doing a podcast with you right now, Jesse Blake.
Tomorrow, the MLB season kicks off.
NBA is back today in exhibition action.
They're actually playing basketball games again with zero COVID cases,
even though Steve didn't believe in the bubble.
It proved him wrong.
Okay, can we – this is very funny.
So I don't know if we've really done this on the show.
You, Adam, and I have butted heads on the Florida bubble,
and whether or not that's a good idea they're doing it properly so far it's working baseball
what is baseball doing i i feel like they don't have them i don't even know if they're testing
people like the jays don't have a stadium yeah and it just came out before the podcast that
pittsburgh rejected them so they they can't even go to pittsburgh even though that looked like a
plan for 24 hours that's no longer happening and everybody just me lying around playing games like
normal except no fans which i feel like is a ridiculous plan it's absolutely it's absolutely
ridiculous it's not a plan and uh listen they might be able to get through the whole season
and you know no one gets actually sick or at very least dies but like that's so far beyond the point
um it's just like this like nothing's happening it's it's the most ridiculous thing like you
argued for hardcore with orlando it is an anomaly stop saying florida even though it's in florida
it's this weird the active bubble yeah yes uh hockey bubble cities underground tunnels and
Fences and protocol
Baseball's just
Friggin
Doing their thing
Business as usual
Let's go
How is that gonna work?
I'm watching
I was watching highlights yesterday
I'm like
The Jays are playing
The Red Sox?
Also I didn't even know
Like I didn't even know
That game was happening
Two day
Season
They kick off in Tampa
They're playing the
They're playing the
Rays
Starting
In Tampa
Yeah
It's going to happen.
Okay.
Bay bar, get a bay bar.
The NBA bubble is looking like a very good idea right now.
They nailed it with zero cases, and hopefully that continues.
Hopefully the NHL bubble turns out to be the same sort of result
where there's no cases because they've secured it and it's locked down
and they're continually testing and everything's getting cleaned.
So let's hope hockey kicks off one week from now.
because if i do all these friggin videos for nothing i'm gonna be pissed
and i feel like we should start off with uh
with the leafs of course because leafs of course
and um the most controversial thing over the last week
um is probably their off-season plans the plans that uh they've done before
this pandemic where they would bring they would pay for
players to come and practice and and do training with coaches and how the nhl has eliminated that
luxury so it all started with a tweet which was okay good good so last friday this tweet went out
from account for hockey they quoted elliot freedman on the fan 590 saying
toronto was a team that a lot of their prospects or a number of them would come to toronto in the
summer and they work out at the practice facility and they really improve those players and teams
were like we don't like that so the uh and then the threaded tweet says elliot freeman on the fan
590 says that with the new cba one thing that has changed was that other teams saw how toronto kept
their facilities open during past off seasons for players and prospects to train but other teams
didn't like it and felt it was unfair so now they can't anymore so that blew up and blew up
hey why can't why did the nhl take away this completely reasonable thing of just opening
your facilities and letting people who work for your company use your company building well and
i hope i hope to that go ahead i hope account for hockey understands the power they have with that
twitter account by the way because i'm doing my recaps of the leaf season and account for hockey
basically was the second part of a chain reaction that changed hockey culture as we know it
the first was terry koshan wrote that babcock made a rookie in 2016 um make a list of the
players from most hard-working to laziest account for hockey tweeted that snippet from the article
ian tullock then tweeted that that player was mitch marner akim aliou then said no big surprise
because and then he told his bill peters story and domino domino domino domino domino all right
so now there's this he takes the snippet from this elliot friedman he or she i don't know who
they are they they take this uh snippet from this elliot friedman interview and people freaked out
and i think rightfully so because as it was presented that's ridiculous the beef seemed to be
that the leafs had a practice facility that was used during the offseason and teams were mad about
it which is absurd it's absurd it's theirs frig off who cares okay well they have one and we don't
yeah how farts like who cares what you feel the way it is written it sounds like the Leafs open
MasterCard Center during or Ford Performance Center during the offseason and that the CBA
shut that down and now you can't use ice anymore but that's not what happened at all no so Chris
johnston uh put in the caveat that you've already mentioned that the leafs were paying for players
to do this they were flying them in i don't know what else etc etc but they were getting some sort
of they were having expenses covered i don't think they were being paid to do it if they were being
paid to do it that's obviously illegal um and they should be penalized for that but if it's just them
being flown in it makes more sense than previously said but it's still so petty and like when sports
net sent me to the all-star game in st louis i didn't foot the bill right they paid for an
employee to go they paid for all their employees to go and you know you a lot of people are like
wow austin matthews is rich he can afford it well austin we're not talking about austin matthews
we're talking about prospects we're talking about guys who are probably not uh well established
financially you know if we're talking about prospects we're talking about guys who
might have been making i don't know 60 000 a year which is i i'm sure there's a lot of people
listening to this right now that are like damn i'd like to make 60 000 it ain't rich you know
it's if i'm flying in from orange old sweet or helsinki or vladivostok or somewhere uh even
somewhere in the states like why i'm coming to practice at your facility i'm coming to become
a better employee for you why should i have to pay for this and the team would cover their expenses
to me that makes perfect sense um but i guess it's just such a mickey mouse league that
teams are upset about that i just i just i don't understand i don't understand like a concrete
example is nick robertson yes from uh california yes so say last offseason the leafs pay for his
flight from california where he's living the offseason because that's where he's from to
toronto to train with uh gary roberts for two weeks now under the cba paying for the flight
is illegal and paying for the training is illegal which is is that understandable if you're because
the NHL's mandate is that parity must exist no matter what they must have the most even playing
field so if that's their mandate it makes sense but that's a ridiculous thing to try and enforce
it's completely ridiculous like well I remember talking to Tobias Lindbergh when he came to the
Leafs from the Sens organization and he was like oh the Leafs they bring a goalie coach on the road
that's crazy I think it was or it was like a video guy or is it was someone I'm like what
and like what are they gonna are they gonna take that away too listen some teams have money and
some teams don't and in in hockey there's it sounds like there's six teams that have money
and the rest of them are the Sens uh and like listen there's flying Nick Robertson from
california to stouffville yeah that to me is that makes well sorry flying him from california to
toronto to etobicoke yes that's a very torontonian thing you just did there jesse like flying him
from california to toronto pearson airport let's say billy bishop billy bishop it's it's just
better anyway flying them there to me the leafs covering that bill makes perfect sense
they're flying an employee to their practice facility to practice
now paying for him to train with gary roberts who i understand to and this is a hypothetical
yeah right so flying him to go train with gary roberts who i understand does not work with the
toronto maple leafs okay i understand how that's a little teams wouldn't be totally comfortable
with that i get that but like now like where does it stop so like only local players can use the
ford center or you got to pay your own way you know what i've seen with my own two eyes i've
seen barb underhill working with tampa bay prospects in that building this was before
i think she was like freelance or whatever you call it or she was a consultant for the least
But she could still work with other players
Now I think she has a more formal role with the Leafs
Can
Like if I were the Leafs
After these shenanigans
I'd be like
No other team may use this facility
No other NHL team can use this facility
Now do
I don't know if they own the building
They don't
I don't
Well sorry
I said that they own the building
And other people were like
Well it's the city of Toronto who owns it
But they
They
um the leafs are paid by the city of toronto to run it okay so it sounds like they
it's it sounds to me like they would have the power to do what i just suggested i don't know
if that's true but i don't know no other team can use this facility sorry sorry and like the
leafs practice facility has four or five pads of ice one of them is used for commercial shoots and
has stands and is sponsored get on the Leafs level or don't well that's the NHL's argument
the other teams say you're you're uh the Washington Capitals and sure none of your players
live in Washington full-time sure Toronto the majority a lot of your guys and the guys from
across the NHL live in the GTA in surrounding areas so it's easier for the Leafs to pay for
these coaches to go train these guys if you're Washington you're paying for all these guys to
come in and then paying for the coaches and maybe you're paying for hotels or whatever and the cost
is astronomical that these other teams just aren't doing it with the Leafs it's like okay they're
already here plus we have these billions of dollars let's just go spend it so the NHL is
trying to eliminate this competitive advantage in the offseason but I'm on the side of no there
are 31 soon to be 32 separate businesses that operate here if one makes more money they should
be allowed to spend it and put it back into their organization well and some people rightfully
pointed out like okay but like uh the florida panthers the tampa bay lightning the dallas stars
they get to enjoy the benefits of being where they are having the american dollar and also uh having
their uh tax rates that they do as opposed to like ontario or quebec or something why are they
allowed to enjoy and with tampa all the players who live there in the off season as well yes so
why are they able to enjoy the fruits of being where they are and the leafs are not and what
what is this oh yeah we just got it we got to eliminate the competitive edge a team that has
not won a stanley cup in over half a century and not a playoff round since 2004 what is this
are you freaking kidding me are you joking so what i said i'm like okay if we're gonna be this
silly about parity all canadian teams are allowed to spend 25 over the cap because the dollar the
tax rate yeah and then i thought about that and i'm like wait a sec they're already spending more
that means they got to spend even more more so tell you what what's the cap the the cap is let's
say it's 83 million dollars what are american teams salary cap 75 of that listen we got to
make it fair yeah all american teams uh it's like 68 million that's what that's what you get to
spend listen guys we're focused on parity here it's got to be fair it like if okay so that's
obviously ridiculous and we're definitely not there i don't think they're even going to humor
the factoring taxes into the salary so when does it stop why is it always the least yeah if they're
building the cba for the goal of parity then you have to cut down on everything then it has to be
okay if you have three bench presses in your gym all the facilities have to have three what if the
Leafs have four like then one extra guy is going to be working the bench press at the same time as
the other guys and like that's that's unfair that's competitive advantage you know Leafs have
a video coach in the back that sometimes walks out to the bench like is that allowed do other
teams have that are they going to take that away the the coaches or video personnel whoever it was
that go with the Marlies on the road are they going to eliminate that so the Leafs you know we
talked about championships the Leafs have a minor league championship from 2018 maybe that's a
competitive edge and as well I guess we're targeting their prospects as well so are we
it's so so petty and if it sounds like I'm being a petty asshole yes I do a very good impression
a backwards it's a backwards league you shouldn't be telling these teams they can't spend money on
their own teams it's not like they're spending in other places like they're just they're reinvesting
it in their players why is that not allowed okay the blackhawks are the anomaly right they had the
three cups in six years or whatever it was in terms of teams that make money they're the anomaly
the new york rangers have not won since 1994 the philadelphia flyers have not won since the 70s the
Leafs have not won since the 60s the Vancouver Canucks have not won at all let teams spend their
money for crying out loud it's stupid it's stupid like it's that to me is it's such a tiny
piddly little expense that it would even get brought up is ridiculous let alone a put into
law. League law.
You know what? I guarantee it was
one owner who
saw it go down. Jeremy Jacobs.
Probably. Maybe.
Jeremy Jacobs.
But it's one owner who
saw it go down and was like, you know what?
Let's spite
these guys.
Huge.
Someone from Buffalo.
They just hate their lives right now.
It's garbage.
garbage um speaking of uh home ice advantage uh did you see the article that chris johnson wrote
about the nhl trying to eliminate home ice advantage for the oilers and leaves
so they're trying to create no i didn't that's absolutely amazing
of the show wrote uh it's pretty interesting i liked it there's little tidbits in there
the Leafs will be in the visiting dresser dressing room for away games obviously and um in some cases
they'll be using like the Raptors uh dressing room or even the media facility when they're like
teams coming in and swapping so they're perfectly fine and then the uh the game ops as well so when
Columbus is playing them Columbus will get the cannon um perfectly fine when there's a goal so
that's they're trying to eliminate all these things i don't know how well it's gonna go
but um they also ended up giving the least a less favorable hotel setup because they based it on
points percentage so uh they've considered that the royal york is the less favorable hotel so the
better teams are at hotel x so the better teams are at hotel x it's much more modern and plus
It's going to be next to BMO Field where they're going to have an outdoor barbecue and sports park.
Okay, so this is, that's fascinating to me, by the way, this narrative going around.
I feel like not enough Toronto and Toronto-ish people have factored into this conversation
that the Royal York has been called the less good hotel compared to Hotel X.
I don't know where Hotel X is exactly, and I've never stayed in it.
i've stayed in the royal york once i just didn't feel like going home that night and i was drunk
um exhibition you know where the gates are yes it's right there yeah royal york is across the
street from the building and you don't even have to go outside hotel x buddy the more stuff that
opens in toronto rush hour is back it is thoroughly back driving in that city sucks
and there's going to be a lot of people who are not from the area completely caught off guard
trying to do anything well they're not allowed to leave the bubble anyway are they right no they
actually that's also um a weird thing that came out as well so for the first 14 days when everyone
lands in toronto they're gonna have to isolate but after those 14 days players will have the
opportunity to go golfing or do other scheduled activities on their off days that's okay and leave
the bubble yeah but like that's if you all go golfing together like it sounds like it's all
team events like they can't go to the underground and tie one on all right so uh i think i i took
care of my dog she's barking at me she doesn't like when i'm sitting at the kitchen table and
And, like, I'm talking to her, and I'm talking to her.
So I'm barking at her from up above.
So, yeah, she's – I think I calmed her down.
We should be good.
From high places.
Actually, so I just read a tweet, tweeted during the show,
that's actually relevant to the current conversation we're having
from reporter Chris, Chris Johnston.
Morgan Riley on the NHL's evolving hub plans.
I mean, what we heard two weeks ago has changed today.
So I'm not really positive what it's going to look like.
in terms of what the bubble has to offer i don't think it's going to be a lot but that's perfectly
fine by us i would like to know those details it's very interesting because that doesn't sound
like they got something new sounds like they got something worse because it's not like we were like
we were just saying it's not the nba bubble where they've created a resort it's a hotel to the game
so the players are gonna have to find ways to entertain themselves outside the hotel like we
said they're gonna have the option to go golfing after a 14-day quarantine or at this bmo field
sports park with barbecues whatever they create so we'll see how it goes for them yeah it'll be
very interesting i love the story that james reimer is bringing um an airplane simulator
like a flight simulator with him what i didn't see that yeah he's gonna do flight simulator in
spare time which is the most james reimer thing of all time other than the only like oh what are
you gonna do flight simulator and pray like i think that would be very on brand that and just
stare in the mirror and pinch my own cheeks because i'm just so gosh darn adorable james
so the next thing i want to talk to you about was um uh choose your own adventure
the three starter Pokemon
for you to choose from.
So we have
we have to hyper focus
on practice here because practice
is all we got. So at the least
practice we've seen three different line
combinations that have
outraged the community.
Outraged. Which starter
Pokemon would you like to discuss first?
Riley and Cece?
Matthews,
Marner, Tavares?
happening kerfoot robertson okay let's talk about the all-star line first go ahead the all-star
line i think my favorite tweet i've seen so far i want to say it was bonks mullet it was some
fans they're loving this by the way i'm loving the tweets from fans of the seven nhl teams that
are not in it because they're just like i'm not not gonna watch but i hate this and they were like
Wow, what a concept, putting your three best forwards on the same line.
These guys are nuts.
Crazy.
Because, well, they remember Danny Heatley and Jason Spezza
and Daniel Offenson being on the same line.
And Bruins have Bergeron and Marchand and Pasternak.
Tavares, Matthews, Marner.
It's got a lot of people outraged.
But I'm super interested.
And let me ask you this.
so it's been a conversation that i've had with some people they're like oh man the back half
those those later years in tavaris's contract they're gonna be bad
i'm gonna be older so i have a theory on that um one and i've had this belief for a long time
one of the the the main criticism of john tavaris in junior was his foot speed he's never been fast
Yarmir Yager was criticized basically his whole career that he was never like a burner he was
never really fast so that to me doesn't suggest like oh well he's already slow so he's going to
get slower no John Tavares has never had to rely on his speed to be an effective hockey player
so him getting slower over time because he's getting older doesn't concern me however if it
does become an issue you could make him a winger and a hell of a winger and in certain situations
if you're confident in alex kerfoot and in jason spezza and in i don't know who else takes that
center position you could once or twice a period throw out this ridiculous super line of tavaris
matthews and marner and what the hell do you do what the hell do you do how many lines in the nhl
can stand a chance against that it's not many now do you think keith is going to use it yes
yes and when they're losing like pretty much exclusively when they're losing um or maybe
on an offensive zone face-off or um after a power play or well not after a power play sorry after a
penalty kill um whenever they need offensive pop or just those are your guys who you need to get
more ice so every now and then you just skip a third line shift or you skip a fourth line shift
or whatever because those guys are gonna play less and you gotta play matthews 22 to 25 minutes
marner 22 to 25 minutes devaris 22 to 25 minutes and that's how you get them those minutes
but i feel like if he really wanted to push the envelope he would do it when not not when
they're losing but regular you know if people leave even if you try and get ahead you know
it's tie game like why not why not just take a risk like no he can do it yeah he can do it when
they're winning and he can do it when it's tied i'm just saying he should lean on it when they're
losing um heavily but yeah when it's when it's tied or when they're ahead two three shifts a
period get them in there i just like there have some fun yeah uh from hockey that playing your
best players all at once is so wild and crazy you know it's super not it's super not my question
is every now and then you're going to need a makeup shift and who does that come from
because you can't now neglect to get William Nylander his ice he needs his ice too so do you
throw out something and Zach Hyman is another very effective player so do you throw something
out there like Kerfoot centering Nylander and Hyman or do you just get Matthews an extra shift
or Tavares an extra shift is that what it is you know maybe you maybe you rest up Tavares
the next time you want to try it, you throw William
Nylander in his spot there on the left wing
and then what you
answer with is Tavares, Hyman
and who cares?
Mikheyev, I guess. I've always been
the team that should run with
seven defensemen if there's ever a team to
do it. You take away
that forward and double shift one of them
and then you have your seven
defensemen so you're not running
these wonky defense pairings out there.
Man, you know what I'm learning
doing these 7-in-70 videos
is this team
defensively
as bad as we talk about
them being, we're not being hard
enough on them. They suck.
They suck.
I think we should talk about
the next pairing that we've been seeing.
Uh-oh. Oh yeah.
Because there was a point
in February
when we thought Cody Cece would
never play another game for the Toronto Mavericks.
There was a time.
he got injured and we thought this injury would take him into the off season
and I missed the majority of the playoffs and just never come back and walk as
a free agent and fly off into the sun and Cody CC land.
But then he comes back and he's,
he's going to be there before the end of the season.
And then now that the season is kicking off again,
we see Riley and CC again, and that's what they're running with.
That's what Keith was running with during practice.
And Riley had just started playing with Barry when he went down with injury.
maybe a month maybe a month of that pair they're back sorry i don't i don't think we could be happy
that they're back you know no no i mean it's worth mentioning that the when cc went down
everyone's like oh the defense might get better and it didn't they were ass uh even more so um
but just from a familiarity standpoint i don't i don't think sheldon keith would be doing his
due diligence if he didn't at least see what riley and cc can do together um because they
played together quite a bit this season had some success um i think it's worth checking out he
wouldn't be doing his due diligence if he didn't check it out you notice the first bunch of
practices robertson wasn't in the top 12 for forwards because he needs to see he might have
had it on paper like okay but he at least was like let me see what pierre engvall's got before
taking him out of that top 12 position you know what i mean i i don't mind riley and cc even if
that's what they end up deciding uh because listen i think i think what i'm learning from these videos
is uh there is no right answer the right answer is something they haven't tried yet which would
be maybe Dermott right on the right side because and if that's not the answer nothing is because
the it's so bad it's just so bad so if it's Barry Dermott uh Muzzin Hall Riley Cece where does
Sandin Marincin and Callie Rosen come into that where do you see those last two names you said
I've already forgotten um you know Rosen and Marincin I'm not going to spend my time worrying
about them they get in if someone gets hurt um Sandin is a fascinating one because the reason
they burned year one of Sandin's ELC is because Morgan Riley got hurt so oh that's a good one
Jesse man I don't know and it was it was interesting to see them because I want to say during Sheldon
keith's tenure when they were mostly healthy cc was playing third pair of minutes sandian's gonna
get in he's gonna get in they're they're gonna have to rely on their youth um and to me especially
against columbus in the play-in they're gonna have to rely on their most skilled players
you know in a in a seven game playoff let's say nothing happened and somehow the Leafs ended up
playing a seven game playoff series in April against the Blue Jackets right I give the Blue
Jackets a better chance of winning that than now because now is this slop fest of you know you talk
about like oh John Tortorella really getting out his clipboard every coach always has their clipboard
out when the season begins and their team doesn't
friggin' listen and they make all sorts of stupid
mistakes. It's the most skilled
team that wins at the beginning of the
season, typically.
So to me
that's the Leafs. I don't think it's an insult
to the Columbus Blue Jackets to say the Leafs are
by far the more
gifted team in the skill department. However,
the Blue Jackets
once mid-season rolls around
are actually a handful for the Leafs to handle
because they sort of play this sandpaper
style they do have some skill they have a particularly offensively minded back end and
they got some goaltending but because i think hockey is going to be so sloppy off the top
the leafs should actually beat them and go with their more skilled lineup and to me cody cc's out
rasmus and he's in what do you think about the argument that columbus is the younger team and
that's giving them an advantage during a time when uh the older guys have been resting and
there might be a little rusty getting back into it and now columbus has these young guys who can
just go out there and skate again i disagree with that because it's it's a lazy way of looking at it
the that people do because it all it does is looks at the average age of the players on the team it
doesn't take into account that their top center is 22 doesn't take into account that their top
right winger is 23 and i think their second right winger is 23 and morgan riley is like the old guy
at what 24 25 like sandin is a teenager they got they got a few other young guys in there but like
they're more depth guys like jason spezza ruins the whole thing but like how many guys over 30
does this team actually have two jason spezza throws off that curve a little yeah now they got
two two guys on the kind of older end but they're all players in their early 20s like if you were
to do it by ice time the leafs might be the younger team right like so if it wasn't just
average age throughout the lineup you did average age of ice time i don't know how on earth you
would calculate that i'm not smart enough uh i'd say it was a lot more even so no i don't buy that
at all and if Nick Robertson makes the team then what he cancels out Jason
Spencer there you go so how are you you're you're
siding with the Leafs going into this
it's such a unique situation that I don't know if there's
really a wrong decision they can make I listen if it were up to me I would not
put CeCe with Riley um and if it costs Rasmus Sandin a
spot in the lineup. Now I'm pissed.
I don't think there's
any doubt about that.
If CeCe's in there, Sandin is out.
No!
Like you said, Rosen
and Marincin aren't getting in there
unless there's an injury.
I don't think you're breaking up Paul with
Muzzin or Dermot Berry
for Sandin.
Dermot Berry
should work, and it was ass.
Yeah.
It was really bad.
Travis Dermott, he's such a key player on this team.
I swear to God, this guy.
What they should look at, potentially,
is maybe mixing up the D pairs the way we're talking about the forwards.
Like in certain situations, we throw this line and that line.
In certain situations, it should be Riley Muzzin.
You know what I mean?
That way, you don't have to completely throw Dermott to the Wolves,
But I would like to see Dermott on the right side
With Riley
That allows you to keep Muzzin Hall together
And then you can do Barry Sandin
And then Sheldon Keefe tells you
We like lefties with
A righty
And we're not going to mix that up
We like our lefty righty
Matchups
And that's what we're going with
I learned it from Babcock
I would be so disheartened
Jesse Blake
I'd be so sad if that's what he said
Oh my god
but yeah like Cody see he he can't he can't if we're if we're just going with the most skilled
lineup that dude had he scored in his first game as a leaf or sorry second game as a leaf
and I want to say he had five points or something in his first month and he's got seven like that
dude is a defensive defensive defenseman who can't exactly do the defensive defenseman thing
so i don't understand what we're doing i don't understand i still i don't care if it's july how
do you get 4.5 i don't freaking get it i'm excited to see what they do versus montreal
so it'll be a good indicator of what they do versus the jackets oh are you ready for it's
gonna be the the arguments after the game win or lose are gonna be hilarious because people are
going to go sample size all you have is a one game sample size if there is ever a time to act
irrationally based off a one game sample it's now it is now look at you cannot base and and this is
in defense of pierre engvall uh sort of transitioning into the nick robertson conversation
pierre engvall was terrible from basically new year's onward
that shouldn't be held against him five months later in July
you know what I mean so you can't go well this guy was great in March
so even though he had a bad performance against Montreal we're going to keep him in his spot
no you got to make adjustments because they're not the same person Ilya Mikheyev
might make a legitimate argument to be on the first line because this guy has been in toronto
and training the entire time well he hurt his wrist so he can't shoot well he can never shoot
well and he's been rehabbing the wrist the whole time he's been on skates the whole time which very
few players can say it's everything is different everything and and you know who was on the ice
with him is Jake Muzzin, because he
was rehabbing from an injury.
It's all very
interesting, man. It's very interesting.
The last line we have to talk about
is the
Nick Robertson situation.
Do you think he cracks
the lineup in the
line that he threw out at
practice yesterday, you think it was?
Which is Perfoot,
Kapanen, and Robertson.
Does he take that spot?
What do you think?
one more time jesse cappinan kerfoot robertson is that going to be a line we see in actual
playoff there isn't a pill on the market that could do what saying those three names together
out loud are you joking me nick robertson with alexander kerfoot and casperi cappinan the most
water buggy annoying wee line i could ever think of oh it just it makes so much sense it's so
perfect that line is the leafs don't have a shutdown line like in the traditional sense
they don't have what the ducks had in 2007 where i think it was like sammy paulson and uh rob
Niedermeyer and who was the other guy in that line I can't even remember but it was just you
know this muck and grinder sort of guy that doesn't really exist anymore so what you need to do is
send out a third line that's just straight up better than anyone else's third line and to me
that line absolutely has the potential to do that Kerfoot's not spectacular but he's pretty good
and annoying Kapanen not spectacular but he's pretty good and annoying Nick Robertson has
spectacular upside and if we're making the argument oh young players get the what about
that guy all right what about nick robertson to me it's super exciting he's only turning 19 in
september right you can't get younger than that he scored over 50 goals uh man march 7th i was
at a peterborough pete's game shook over you know 150 hands that day it's four days before the nba
shut down it's crazy but i remember being like wow i'm actually gonna get to see nick robertson
in person i wonder if he's gonna score a goal he scored in the first period jesse
he's unreal and i've had people go who's gonna kill penalties he killed penalties
and to me having him play with kapanen at even strength i'd be interested to see what they look
like killing penalties do you worry about the guy's first nhl game ever versus grown men coming
at this stage uh it didn't hurt pk suban you know it didn't hurt uh who else did it
was it cam neely i'm like he wouldn't be the first player to ever have his first nhl action
be in the playoffs and actually it's going to be a ton of guys by the sounds of it like it could be
The Islanders can have a goalie.
Kirill Kaprizov for the Wild.
What is it, Alexander Romanov for the Montreal Canadiens
could throw a monkey wrench in the whole thing.
Imagine Montreal wins three.
That's all they got to do is win three, and they knock off Pittsburgh like that.
Then we're going to hear some protests about this playoff format.
But, you know, Nick Robertson won't be alone.
I mean, Rasmus Sandin's not much better off.
he hasn't played 30 games yet uh in the nhl i'm not worried about it okay do you have any other
least notes you want to throw out there goalies no least um it's no it's very interesting i think
the leafs by the way are i'm putting my tinfoil hat on for this one but i feel like they've been
paying attention to what people have been talking about and a bunch of the leafs early highlights in
camp were oh my god look at this spectacular goal and 95 of my brain was going oh my god look at
this spectacular goal five percent of it was going freddie kind of looks like crap and he did
so i feel like the leafs though if you watch the past couple days they've been tweeting like look
at this crazy freddie save look at this crazy freddie save now i don't know if that's them
just noticing uh-oh we're not posting enough of his saves and he's actually been making saves so
we're making him look worse or if it's an overcorrection or a pr thing or whatever but
there's a little thing bubbling under the surface of a potential goalie controversy and i think
there's going to be cold goalie controversies throughout the nhl because like i said about
sample sizes if freddie is awful in the first game
can you give him game two i tell you what if he's bad in game two you can't
get game three there's it's a non-option you go with
campbell yeah 100 100 you make your apologies to
freddie later the reason i'm not too worried about that
right now is because you've only been hearing it from
fans who've just watched videos on twitter
or the highlights on whatever sports program you know it's not from any of the reporters who are in
the building no one is speculating that jack campbell can take this job right now it's just
hey the leafs are practicing here's some video of it and then people start being like hey ah
that pox just went through his five hole maybe it's well and and the narrative during the season
is always so heavily on the amount of games that Frederick Anderson is playing and his workload but
forget the fact that he's playing like 75 80 percent of the games that changed after Campbell
joined but he's playing 75 to 80 percent of the games and then add to his workload every single
practice he's playing against the Leafs offense behind the Leafs defense yeah that sucks man
that's really hard could you see a situation where he plays almost center plays the entire
run of playoff games anderson the games are going to be every other day right and if this if this
just goes every other day till uh like september how many games is campbell really going to get
into well and this is actually a fascinating thing i'm going to look it up on my phone right now to
make sure but i think i want to say games four and five for the leafs in this potential series
against columbus no even more interesting so it's games three and four are back to back
no i didn't know there was going to be back to backs yep so thursday august 6th is game three
here let me let me make sure this is correct game one is sunday august 2nd game two is tuesday
august 4th game three is thursday august 6th the next day is game four so if you're a keef
do you say hey freddie you've had uh three what is it there'll be four months off
you're five five months off you're going like you're playing all these games you can play
five games in a row even if one of them is back to that you've had from what i've from what i've
heard sheldon keith isn't gonna have to tell him that freddie will tell him like he he likes playing
this much and that's been part of the problem i think if freddie really protested and was like
man i'm tired like he wouldn't be in this situation but you'll remember there was a really
bad loss against the philadelphia flyers and the leafs had the colorado avalanche the next day
uh and again a back-to-back with travel like they had so many times and freddie insisted
to Sheldon Keefe I want to play the second half of this back-to-back and it's interesting against
a team like Columbus who just produced goalie after goalie after goalie you know so that could
be an advantage of Columbus's that they'll be able to throw this fresh quality goalie at you
while the Leafs have even if they're getting quality play from Freddie there's no way he's
as crisp if he played in a playoff game
the day before. What if
game three goes to triple overtime?
Yeah.
What happens
then?
Fascinating one.
The OT part of it
is going to be fun because
say it's a game that
goes to triple OT. And it ruins
everything. And everything
gets fucked.
And Rodgers is just pulling their hair out.
you're like we had so many broadcast plans and now look triple oz threw it up well and from my
perspective right so the it sounds like the leafs are getting a lot of eight o'clock slots
which is tough for me because so my plan is to shoot all these at night
um and i'm gonna help out with leo as i can uh i'm able to feed him while i edit
or change his diaper while i edit i can take a break from editing and then once the video is
done and uploaded then i go to bed and i sleep in but if i go to bed after the game it's 11 o'clock
or something like that i'm not getting quality sleep uh because of leo so i'm getting up tired
at probably 10 or something like that the video is not up until like four that's not good enough
and then the Leafs play again at eight right it's not good enough so I'm gonna be doing my plan is
to do night of videos for every LFR um because the other option isn't good enough it's gonna be
it's gonna be crazy like I the moment it kicks off is just gonna be a whole other reality like
because there was okay we had regular time and then we had season canceled pandemic time and
then we have now this like little build-up and then when it gets going it's just going to be
this whole other thing that we've never really experienced at a professional level like we've
seen it with March Madness and all that where they're just games all the time but this is
literally going to be three major sports going at it from a.m. to p.m. it's so good and the
highest intensity of play it's the playoffs like so good it's so good uh you know oh go ahead
well i i was talking to someone about that like i'm not complaining this is going to be so fun
and i'm really looking forward to it and there's a reason i'm burying my head in my work right now
like i'm actually enjoying having something to do in late july early august but i was talking to
someone else who works in sports and they're like when the off season finally comes in october or
whatever it is like around halloween and someone asked me to come on their podcast i'm putting a
hit on them and i man i always joke about man when the summer comes i'm gonna throw my phone
in the lake if you freaking try to call me in october and you're not offering me beer hang up
do you want to call the day that the Leafs
re-signed Cody Ceci
that's fine
because that's work
and then it better be two beers
better be a lot more than a beer
two notes
before we get into
a little heart trophy discussion
Brendan Lemieux
suspended two games
for his hit on Donskoy
Yunus Donskoy
do you remember that hit
nope yeah neither do i i saw it come up and i was like i didn't remember that happened
and uh so it was the day before the season uh got put on hold he had a hearing and then
the suspension didn't matter because there might have not been any more games imagine getting that
call. We don't know what to do with you, but we're
awful cross. Right. So just kind of sit around, Mr.
Lemieux. And that's probably been suspended. I thought we should throw in that note.
No, that's hilarious. And also he's friends with, who's buddy
you got the cameo for? From Can't Come Island?
What's his name? Bryce.
Can't Come Island. I missed that show. That's his hockey friend?
yeah oh we didn't talk about this i'm not on air i think you mentioned it off
air but not on air yeah so in the cameo we got he's like
oh my my nhl friends are like steve dangle who
the hell is that and then someone went through his
instagram and they're like uh steve here's a picture of him with brendan
lemieux he actually has nhl friends wow yeah i know it weird uh steve you're
on cameo that happened since our last podcast
sure am damn it i got diapers to pay for so if anybody wants to get you to record a video
they can hit up cameo and pay how much uh let me check i forget uh like 20 bucks or something
right it's 24 but i think that's us i'm not sure uh i've made 116 so dollars or cameos cameos
no way that's a lot i've made a ton of cameos and how many do i got i got five that i still need to
do get on those i should jack it up to 50 bucks every now and then i look and i go who what famous
person do i recognize that i am more expensive than that's a good game jesse you could you could
have a cameo from five-time nba champion michael cooper of the la lakers for 75 canadian
pendulets on here here ask me a player past or present and i'll see if they're on here
or any famous person um uh alexander mcginley well i don't think he's on there oh gilney
no he is not on there but you know who is actually here let me just type in leafs
wendell clark is on here for 160 bucks canadian darcy tucker's 90 bucks
doug gilmore is 130 bucks here's here's someone who i'm i'm charging more than
casimir caskey swole you can have him for 18 bucks frank corrado is 15 bucks he's on there
uh shane corson is 69.99 and nasm cadre is 290 bucks nas is worth that nas is 100 worth that
there's some uh there's some expensive folks on here cameo it's great you want to fund leo's
college fund you can uh call up steve on cameo yeah do that some good news that broke i think it
earlier today, Oscar Lindblom
signed a three-year, $9 million
contract with
the Flyers. That's awesome.
He's been out since December
with a form of bone cancer.
And the prognosis is that
he could return in time for the postseason
if the Flyers go deep enough, which is
just incredible. That's unbelievable.
Like it's, it's not even just the fact that, you know, he had to recover from it and everything, but like, I don't know how much, how much wind he lost, you know, his, his ability to breathe, his ability to, um, uh, you know, his muscle mass and, and all that.
It's absolutely fascinating, but it's been done before in different forms.
Mario Lemieux's story is absolutely ridiculous if you go back and look at it.
He was the best player in hockey, had leukemia, came back,
and was the best player in hockey.
It was absolutely unbelievable and a wicked story.
I mean, there's all sorts of stories of players who were hurt
and their season was done that now have this new chance to play
and compete for a stanley cup and out of all those amazing stories his has to be the best
i think easily you know easily easily um it's unbelievable that the turnaround was so quick
like i i know so little about the uh the disease that he was suffering from but um just the fact
that you come back from a form of bone cancer to earn three million dollars with the flyers and
then potentially play in the playoffs that's just something to applaud right absolutely and uh
speaking of return to injuries uh andreas johnson was on the ice today with uh which is cool
supposedly he still can't return until the second round yeah there's a rule the where he's not
eligible to play right away even if he was able to but johnson if the leafs win around johnson's
back in the lineup which is really cool it is really cool he's a guy who i'm really rooting
for for a variety of reasons i just like him as a player but also um going through all 70 of the
leafs games from this past season i don't know if anyone had more of a nightmare year than andreas
johnson couldn't get going finally gets going gets hurt can't get going finally gets going gets hurt
out for the whole season like these and they're significant injuries and he loses his spot on the
first line and he's playing some third line and it's ridiculous so if he's able to get into some
games and be effective because remember this was the Marley's playoff MVP the year they won the
Calder Cup could be very interesting and lastly the Hart Trophy nominees came out Leon Dreisaitl
Nathan McKinnon and Artemi Pernarin who's your pick and why is everybody upset at your tweet
from earlier yes so here let me try to find the tweet what i personally love about it is i'm
referring to the heart trophy and i don't even talk about one of the nominees um i said this
isn't how it works but best player connor mcdavid best performance leon dry sidle most valuable
player nathan mckinnon i need you to point to the lie because there isn't one uh one out of one
best performance should have also gone to nathan mckinnon you might be right you're right i gave
dry saddle too much credit um because the the guy you gave best performance to plays with the guy
you gave best player to there you go so best performance nathan mckinnon the the most amazing
thing to me is I think it was both Miko Rantanen and Gabriel Landeskog were out for a 14 game
stretch during that stretch McKinnon had 10 goals 14 assists in 14 games he had 24 points
in 14 games and I think there was at least one overtime winner in there he had like 30 something
more points than his next closest teammate that's most valuable player magic number is 43 Nathan
mckinnon at 93 points kill mccarr at 50 points that and what's and what's panarin at he was like
20 points right which is spectacular to have 20 more points than your next closest teammate
aaron had 95 points uh mika zabinijad had 75 which is incredible it's incredible it's not
the same not mckinnon mckinnon had no way the best year to carry that team no and and a lot
of people so it's a the heart trophy is spectacular because it's the most valuable player and any
player that you don't say should win the heart trophy all of a sudden you're now accusing of
being ass yeah they suck they suck and i got screamed at by a bunch of people going what about
panarin he had so many more points than his teammates and he almost dragged them into the
playoffs well how about mckinnon had twice more than twice as many points over his second place
teammate than panarin did i don't know if i said that correct or whatever and his team was well
established in the playoffs mckinnon what panarin did except better a thousand times better and
and panarin was dude 95 points in 70 games that's stupid he was unreal um if the rangers were to
make the playoffs in 82 games which i think they would have i was one of the people going nope
they're on a heater to bandage out it just had a five goal game they're making the damn play out
and uh i believe it was the overtime winners advantage it had to get his fifth was a wicked
feed from montemi panarin panarin was amazing deserves to be nominated for most valuable
player he's just not my pick to me he was still a top five player in the league this year
but he just doesn't he doesn't win and the other player who i got a little bit of heat for people
were yelling how don't you add this guy in the conversation connor hellebuck was unreal this
year and the jets would have sunk to the bottom of the ocean without him but mckinnon do you
subscribe to the argument that dry settle loses points for playing uh not alongside mcdavid they
only did that for like a little bit at the beginning of the year the rest of the year he
had his own line but he's still on the same team with the guy who put up 97 points and is the best
player in the world draft some points from dry settle because i definitely do you know it's funny
it may it my instinct is to do that but did people ever take points away from wayne gretzky
for playing with mark messier did people ever take points away from mark messier for playing
with Wayne Gretzky did people ever take points away from Mario Lemieux for playing with Jaromir
Jager did people ever take points away from Jaromir Jager for playing with Mario Lemieux
do people take points away from Crosby because he has Malkin do people take points away from
Malkin because he has Crosby you know what I mean so it seems a little unfair to take points away
from Leon Dreisaitl who over the last two seasons has been legitimately great and when McDavid was
out he was legitimately great the only exception I'll make is in the Crosby Malkin argument I think
people a hundred percent don't give Malkin the credit that he deserves because he plays with
Sidney Crosby well and he's got this reputation that when Crosby gets hurt he becomes better
exactly right so it'd be to Dreisaitl's credit I think the voices talking about that would be
much louder if when mcdavid got hurt he turned into a pumpkin but he put the oilers on his back
and they were good they were good without mcdavid which is not something anyone thought they were
uh capable of but it is of note that nathan mckinnon was one of the best players in the
league and had 43 more points than his next closest teammate preposterous stupid that's
most valuable player the award is not best player you could argue he was that too though
but he was definitely most valuable like taylor hall the year we gave it to taylor hall
we maybe got a little too overzealous with the scraping into the playoffs and you give it to
the best player the devils don't make the playoffs without taylor hall that year but mckinnon this
year did an even better version of what hall did the year he won it mckinnon was the most valuable
player in the nhl by far oh we're gonna agree on that there you go and artemi panarin sucks
yeah we're not saying he didn't have the uh the spectacular season and blew everybody away and
it's probably one of the best free agent signings like ever like we're not saying any of those
things aren't true it's just mckinnon is the most valuable play yeah you know who's feeling good
about that is rangers ownership we gave all we gave this guy all this money and all he got
nominated for the heart okay good and that's a team who remember that letter they put out to be
like hey we're gonna tank for a little bit and then all of a sudden like a year and a half what
is it two years two years something like that they've they've done a masterful job masterful
