the Bruins drop a seven to2 decision to the Dallas Stars tonight they face
0:23
another quality playoff team playoff caliber team and lay another egg after
0:30
what we thought may have been a galvanizing win against the lowly St
0:35
Louis Blues how wrong were we uh very wrong except for the fact
0:43
that I said after that game that I could see Dallas putting up 10 on them and Dallas came close close Dallas is a good
0:50
team and the Bruins are not a good team so there's the uh you know breaking news
0:55
to everyone Dallas is good Bruins are not good uh and this is what you're going to see all year long it's a it's a
1:02
mediocre team at best uh they have no energy right now you thought that they
1:07
would have something a little bit I thought the first period they played pretty good and were down two nothing um
1:14
you know a bad call I thought on Mason lry on the um on the penalty shot I
1:21
thought it was a good defensive play um and I don't I don't even know how the
1:27
first shot went in on swayan in the first minute of the game I I I don't even know how it went in um sw's got to
1:35
be better I mean 8 million bucks a year to suck is not really what we're looking for he has got to be better and I you
1:43
know I'm I'm watching it tonight and he just doesn't look good he just doesn't
1:49
look right um and I don't know if it's the miss training camp or whatever it is
1:55
or God forbid maybe he's not a top five goal cender like like he said he was and
2:02
everybody thought he was um I think he's fine and he's way down the list of problems for sure on this frag tag
2:10
Bunch but I'll tell you the thing that really pisses me off is the reaction of Jim Montgomery
2:19
game after game on the bench and I know he's not the number one issue he's probably not the number 10 issue on the
2:25
team but he's not helping himself he's not helping the team and I'm at a point
2:31
right now where he is guilty in some way of this nonsense and his reactions you
2:39
know after the Carlo hit I mean he's got to be steaming on that he sat stood there leaned up against the back glass
2:46
with his hands in his pockets all night long in fact he even yawned he yawned
2:54
and they had to cut away quickly whoever the intern was was holy [ __ ] I got to cut away from him because he's about to
2:59
y on big down six to2 and you know I just it just the body
3:06
language the image he's he's you know showing on the on the bench Is Not Great
3:13
some of the comments he's making I mean all the whole package is not great and
3:18
again it's not his fault per se in you're being kind but I'm telling you
3:25
it's it's [ __ ] pissing me off sorry yeah it is you're being kind cuz it's
3:31
[ __ ] terrible is what it is it's awful it's awful like what are you doing like you look like you're giving up you
3:36
look like you're pouting you look like you're like hey you gave me this crap roster and these guys aren't performing
3:43
for me well that's a problem Jim that's an issue yeah whose issue is it Jim like
3:50
seriously it this team isn't that bad I mean they've they've added a couple of
3:55
pieces that were supposed to improve the team in the off season a team that won
4:00
47 games last year this team isn't that bad where they should be getting blown out by playoff quality teams because
4:08
they should still be a playoff quality team they should you can't you can't tell me that this is just because the
4:15
team stinks that's not true I mean the team is not this bad and he is not
4:21
helping it and they're getting worse with him as the head coach yeah he's got to go I'm done with him I'm done with
4:29
him I don't want any I don't want him I don't want them to go on a winning streak and him them to sign him I don't
4:35
want that I don't want him to go on a losing streak but I want I'm I'm done like after this game tonight fire the
4:42
guy he's yawning on the [ __ ] bench during the game after Brandon Carlo got boarded by Jamie Ben he does nothing
4:49
doesn't even yell he comes out at the be beginning before the second period starts and has like a one-on-one with
4:55
the refs like as an aside like oh you know what' you see on that play that one yeah well you almost maimed my
5:02
defenseman I mean Brandon Carlos kissing the [ __ ] stanson in between the glass
5:07
here and he's and nothing out of him nothing nothing the guy has six known
5:14
concussions in his career known not even the probably countless ones that he's
5:20
had other times and he's the one that gets hit like that and you no [ __ ]
5:26
response at all none nothing not you it just shows you're not fighting
5:32
for your guys he's not fighting for them now he's up two shits what happens to Brandon kylo you don't care at all he's
5:39
giving up on them he's given up yeah he's given up and so if he's given up get him the [ __ ] out go see you get out
5:47
peace out yeah yeah get him out yeah I'm with you I mean I and again this started
5:54
out is not his fault and I would defend him because I think the rosters flawed and I think that they didn't make their
6:00
proper moves and I think that they also made moves that don't match his style you can go through the whole list but
6:07
this now is become him being a pouty little [ __ ] and and just standing there
6:12
and doing nothing for his team at at all and then not even getting into nothing
6:18
he's done he's done nothing he got into Martian that one time you know he benched Parson AR or whatever but he
6:24
still should be fighting for the team and they're taking on his personality which give up how about the last goal
6:31
from Dallas that is a microcosm of this horseshit team right now is is Morgan
6:37
geeky comes off the rightwing boards gets an indirect pass and makes it just a shitty freaking play with it loses it
6:43
immediately like with no fight then they come back the other way Carlo and zaka
6:49
each try to stick check duchaine who makes a pretty little pass now it's two-on-one goal like it was just a no
6:58
fight ol sticks freaking defensive effort right
7:03
there in a microcosm of where this team's at when the chips are down they uh they Olay stick cheack
7:11
that's their entire defensive philosophy right now it is f Frederick has a a
7:16
chance I'm not sure if it was goal six I think it was goal six maybe may maybe it was goal five I lost [ __ ] track sorry
7:24
John um one hand Freddy's back yep one hand Freddy's back mhm just inside his
7:32
own [ __ ] defensive Zone one hand on the stick trying to poke it out of the
7:37
Zone instead of being strong on the stick strong on the puck and getting it out Dallas keeps it in and they score
7:44
right 100% on Frederick what is someone tweeted uh sorry to interrupt
7:51
you someone tweeted during the game at me and said um I wonder how many goals
8:00
the Bruins would have actually given up this year if they had actually had some
8:05
effort to clear pucks like if they had actually cleared pucks that they should have cleared and gotten pucks out of the
8:11
zone that they should have gotten you could probably take 20 to 25 goals sure
8:16
conservatively after the bad clear right off off the board if they would just
8:22
make an effort to clear a puck or fight through a check or clear a puck
8:30
strongly instead of softly yeah what is that what is that term in soccer and I
8:35
don't give a [ __ ] about soccer let's let me just make this perfectly clear but in soccer isn't it the play through the
8:41
ball thing like play through the ball like you go through and it's oneon-one with a guy and you just go through the
8:48
ball and they don't go through the puck on on defense they
8:54
Carlo over like they teach you in hockey too you play through the man so you come
9:02
you if you're coming from the side you come up with your stick like through his
9:07
body to take the puck away you don't reach out with your stick you have no
9:14
chance no no Puck battles it infuriates me this team infuriates me I said it
9:21
during the we were tweeting back and forth with with each other that like I'm offended by the way that these [ __ ]
9:28
guys are playing right now yeah offensive I watch him play and I'm like that sucks that sucks that's [ __ ]
9:34
terrible that's [ __ ] like I'm offended by it and
9:40
and I said I wasn't gonna get [ __ ] mad but now I'm like I'm like worked up
9:45
in Furious right now right right um but I I it is it pisses me off the way these
9:50
[ __ ] guys go out here and like mail it in what about what about the the
9:55
second goal the pasta goal that the second goal the pasta goal was literally
10:01
after they turned it over three times and there was a bad turnover by I don't
10:08
know if it was zadorov and it was another bad turnover by a forward and then posano takes this
10:15
backhanded that he loves to do this blind backhanded pass to nobody right to
10:20
the defenseman but then the defenseman falls down or misplays it and then poshak ends up scoring but that's how
10:27
they score they don't score on a great rush they don't score on a great breakout they don't score in a great
10:33
cycle they score on a broken play like and a play they didn't deserve because
10:38
they turned it over three fraking times in the last 30 seconds like it's just I
10:46
I can't I just can't I can't stomach it like so I
10:52
didn't watch a lot of Nikita zorov before the Bruins traded for him
10:59
or not traded for him signed him as a free agent I I didn't watch him a lot
11:04
didn't when he watched the Bruins he would always step up and make hits and like oh God okay big big dude yeah great
11:11
big dude you know beat the bag out of Jamie Ben nice to see after
11:18
the but fire that guy into the sun he [ __ ] stinks terrible can't complete a
11:24
pass he's slow he wanders around he's Connor Clifton at 66 that can fight
11:32
congratulations you spent five million bucks on Conor [ __ ] Clifton he's looking for he's just looking to go hit
11:38
a guy or go start a fight or whatever and then at the end that's his answer yeah you know takes a penalty and a
11:46
misconduct like that's that's his answer to everything he's like y see you slash
11:51
guy I need to get out of here he couldn't get out of there fast enough no he's like I got the hot water boys you
11:56
know good luck to you yeah I don't blame [ __ ]
12:03
andick and and you can I you can pick some other guys too if you want here's a question the [ __ ] bus and send them
12:10
out of town here's a question in what planet is Trent Frederick not been
12:15
scratched yet like what is what are we doing like he hasn't done a goddamn thing he hasn't he's not playing with
12:22
both hands in the stick he's done zero zero and he still roll rolls them out
12:28
there every game like he's super valuable and all I hear of people saying how oh you can't trade Frederick too
12:35
valuable to the team that guy is so replaceable it's silly it is silly how
12:41
replaceable that guy is I'm TI and I'm tired of the we stop it I'm tired of the
12:47
we need centers thing we don't need centers that are that are [ __ ] Z minus 10 we don't need those [ __ ]
12:54
guys that play with one hand on the stick and give up goals and don't fight and don't
12:59
all he does is float around yeah he's the last time he had a shot on [ __ ] net he doesn't even play center for them
13:06
he he's I mean please I mean for God's out of here see you yeah I mean they
13:12
they they so desperately need to Don Sweeney to to put away the hockey Canada
13:19
roster and and and actually work on his own team and get and get a hockey trade
13:26
together or something he needs to send a message by and if that's firing the coach and but I I'd fire the coach and
13:32
I'd make a trade of a guy off the roster like I'd send a message like if you don't want to be here then you won't be
13:39
here that I would send a message too but my message would be from the Jacobs
13:44
family on down the line and I would tell Sweeney to pack his [ __ ] and get out and
13:49
I would tell neie to pack his [ __ ] and get out and I would tell Montgomery to pack his [ __ ] and get out and I would
13:55
tell Chris Kelly to pack his dumb [ __ ] and get out and I would tell sacko and his 14 years and his PK and his power
14:02
play and all the [ __ ] pack your [ __ ] and get out I'd send all of them clear
14:08
[ __ ] house everybody gone bring up [ __ ] Providence Bruins and let those
14:14
guys [ __ ] play everybody else can [ __ ] off yeah everybody else out yeah
14:19
it's just you know what I just I'm at I mean I'm at I'm at my wits
14:24
end I mean that that tonight was as as embarrassing it really was Kevin Paul depont was saying it on Twitter it
14:31
really was 2006 2007 Dave Lewis it was and that was the time where they were
14:38
terrible and and Bon had like a minus 28 and they had to sign Chara and saard and
14:44
completely bite the bullet and start spending some money like they were in the [ __ ] then and that's where I feel
14:52
like this is going that's where I feel like this is going it's that Dave Lewis sign you know hiring was completely Ely
14:59
embarrassing and I'm telling you that the Jim Montgomery thing right now is becoming he's going to be to a point
15:05
where no one's going to want to hire the guy if this ends the way he just seems like he's just kind of giving up on it
15:13
he checks he doesn't give a shs out he he doesn't and that to me that is incredible for a guy with really no real
15:21
resume I mean honestly he had a real super wagon over team and that's what
15:27
he's going to rely on for one year probably go back and coach in [ __ ] College yeah okay fine great see you but
15:34
good coach be you or whatever yeah but see the thing about it is if I notice
15:41
and you notice that he doesn't he seems to be checked out and doesn't care and
15:47
I'm sure the fans notice I'm sure the players notice the players know body language is a huge [ __ ] thing a huge
15:55
thing you can tell a lot somebody's body language and his body language absolutely [ __ ] blows it is awful it
16:03
is awful it's something it's something I preach when I coach all the time it's
16:09
the number one thing your body language sucks you will sit like I can't take it
16:14
it's a look at me I'm I'm I'm upset it's a selfish act I hate it I hate it I mean
16:23
Jesus I mean in the Box Score look at in the box score tonight box score oh we're
16:29
getting into the box getting into the nitty-gritty of this one uh I'll tell you what was here was a good thing
16:35
Bruins were good at the dot tonight like really good at the dot surprisingly uh you know beer was you
16:42
know 71% uh Coy was 61% castc
16:47
63% Elias lolm who actually played I didn't I wasn't quite sure but he was at
16:54
54% uh is it me is it me or does he not do much
17:00
that's noticeable like I I don't hear his name no it's he doesn't do
17:07
anything like I'm trying like I'm trying like I'm I'm trying not to be that guy
17:12
that just arbitrarily says this guy sucks that guy sucks I mean I want this podcast to be a little more than that so
17:19
I'm trying to watch Lyn home and say okay give me some meat on the bone with him like give me something and I get
17:25
he's a pretty good defensive player and stuff but to me a third line center right now to me he just goes out there
17:33
and just doesn't do a hell of a lot and I just don't hear his voice his name
17:38
much like I'm trying to find where he even is contributing something I mean
17:46
he's he's he's W all right I'll go P positives first okay okay okay he wins
17:53
face offs everybody hit record okay okay he wins face off right uh he
17:59
is more physical than I thought right um and um he's good pretty good
18:07
defensively yeah yeah which is which is that's you know that's Chris Kelly that's a third line Center that's yeah
18:14
that's it that's trying I mean I was trying
18:19
to why are you signing a guy that had 44 points last year for [ __ ] $8 million
18:25
and and selling it like he's a number one Center like selling it like the guy need been after him for two
18:32
years he was the number one Center when he played with Matthew chuk and Johnny grro of course he was a number one
18:39
Center yeah those guys are both all World players of course he was of course
18:44
he scored 40 goals riding with those guys I could score 40 goals riding with those guys and I can't [ __ ] stake
18:51
yeah I know I mean well I can say more than you can but I'd scored 25 cuz can't
18:59
SK at all yeah but I mean [ __ ] he's not very good plain and simple right I
19:07
mean offensively I mean all right so we'll try to we'll try to raise the level
19:13
off tonight he had no shots he had he had no takeaways he had three hits he
19:20
had no shots no shots missed no block shots he played 20 shifts he played 1539
19:27
I tell you what that was it like that was it I tell you what T you're gonna love this you're gonna love
19:34
this my my favorite breu tonight was Justin brazzo oh stop it shut your pie hole why
19:42
why why in God's name he was the best forward was he he was the best forward
19:48
tonight oh God easily the best forward oh my God he had four shots on net uh he
19:55
had another shot missed he had 22 shifts played S7 16 yeah I mean he had four he had he led
20:02
the team and shots on goal and he was not a minus he was on a minus no he was
20:08
an even on a six to2 game he's even yeah yeah wow uh let's talk about the minuses
20:15
shall we Mason lorai thanks lry is is in the territory of um
20:22
not being able to complete a long pass like he I I feel like he's I don't know
20:30
if he's trying to do too much or the system or if they don't want him the puck I don't know what the problem is
20:38
he's had a [ __ ] of a time with the system in my opinion he has I think so I
20:45
feel like you know you see flashes from him and you're like there he is yeah like he made a play I I I don't remember
20:53
what period was in we'll call it the first period because that's when the Bruins were actually good um he took the
20:58
puck off the right-wing boards made a guy Miss and and starts to transition
21:04
like took it off the boards quick little move around somebody starts to skate it out hit somebody in stride and we're off
21:11
like great play um but then you get like indirect passes for icing passing to
21:18
nobody like it I I don't I hate the way they play
21:23
and he's soft right soft passes he is soft like I mean
21:29
he he that's not his game like being a big physical guy is not his game no no
21:34
but it's soft passes he needs to snap the puck yeah soft passes and he needs to be stronger in his own Zone whether
21:41
it's you know hitting the weights a little bit more or whatever the case may be he needs to be stronger in zone he
21:46
needs to be stronger it's not the Green Bay gamblers anymore you you don't have to make a soft pass so the guy can catch
21:52
it like guys can catch passes in in the NHL um unless you're a Trent Frederick
21:57
unless you're right right Johnny Johnny poor Johnny um how
22:04
about how about how far has Johnny beater Fallen that yeah when zadorov commits the penalty at the end
22:12
two minutes and then a 10-minute serve the penalty yeah used be
22:17
a penalty killer now he's serving you know what who we gonna yeah let's get beer in there because we don't want him
22:23
anywhere in near the ice yeah we don't want Beach killing penalties anymore yeah yeah I don't know honestly
22:29
Montgomery was probably fast asleep he might have been in the locker room with zadorov I don't know someone else must
22:34
have picked Beacher I don't know I don't know because Monty's not doing much is Jay leech on the bench yeah he
22:42
is leech and Kelly and um I think are there four guys or is
22:49
leech upstairs maybe leech is upstairs I don't think three guys AOW yeah they can't they wouldn't fit four guys back
22:55
there yeah so maybe leech is offens I think cuz sacko and Kelly are Behind the
23:00
B yeah so Lee probably is upstairs yeah so he's got a bird's eye view of his uh you know of his job bir
23:07
bird's eye view he's got a bird's eye view of of watching uh his guys because it's gonna you know what I'd like is is
23:14
for Montgomery to take a bird's eye view uh like where the birds are like up near
23:19
the sun um I I just can't take it like I'm watching it tonight and I and look I get
23:26
the whole like you know I get the whole you know defend
23:32
Montgomery thing to a point why but right now your team blows and it's it's
23:38
that part is your fault why do you why do you get to defend him part well at
23:44
the in the beginning like I get that people were on Sweeney because they don't like Sweeney first of all and then
23:49
they they thought that the team was getting slower you know they didn't like the pickups you know they're blaming the
23:55
roster which I get like I get that part but right now Jim Montgomery is not
24:01
acting like a good coach he's not making adjustments like a good coach you know he's not saying the things that you
24:07
should say as a good coach he's not being a good coach to this team
24:13
regardless of how flawed they are or how weak they are or whatever they shouldn't be getting blown out by good teams they
24:21
should not they're getting blown out by the good teams like like a no chance by
24:27
the good teams and when the snowball goes it keeps going downhill and I just don't I I
24:34
think and people are going to freaking debate it and say there's nothing he can do or whatever well then then don't show
24:41
that then don't put your hands in your pockets and your thumb in your ass and stand there on the bench and do nothing
24:47
like don't show that like yeah maybe he thinks that maybe other people think that whatever maybe it's half true I
24:54
don't know but don't show it on the bench and because now they've taken on your personality now it looks like
25:01
loserville USA like don't do that yeah don't do it so you know what i i to the
25:09
people who say there's nothing he can do then why have a
25:14
coach that's what I love if there's nothing the coach can do never fire coaches in to improve the team why do we
25:22
have a coach yeah why don't we just let the guys run out and and they'll they'll take care of themselves coaches yeah got
25:28
some great leaders on this team they have them lead yeah Brad Martian Brad Martian can coach like why do we have a
25:34
coach if coaches don't matter if if if a Coach has no effect at all on what
25:41
happens on the ice yeah why do we have why why is he even there why do we even have yeah it's not his fault at all
25:47
right not his fault all yeah it's not his fault yeah your team can be undisciplined take all the penalties in the world you know they cannot play hard
25:55
they cannot win battles all that stuff with players we know who can do those
26:00
things that's the thing this is not some young team with or some rag tag bunch of
26:07
you know it's not the San Jose Sharks who have like Le next to no Talent with like the number one pick and nothing
26:13
else this is not that like we know the players are capable so if the players are capable why isn't the coach getting
26:20
in getting that out of them and that's what I'm saying like yeah I I I think at this point the coach needs to go yeah I
26:27
don't care he's he's been tuned out by the players if right if what he's saying
26:33
and it and it sounds like you know for the most part as far as um you know
26:39
effort and whatnot he's saying the right things about that stuff I I still don't think he's taken enough accountability
26:45
for all the teams no he's not have you heard him one time say that was my bad
26:51
no not once no not once he said we got to coach it better nothing and and that
26:57
that is another thing that really pisses me off about people especially in leadership uh leadership positions that
27:04
don't take any accountability for you know what what happens his actions and
27:10
his words are saying that he's not taking accountability yeah um all right before we get to the fan comments let's
27:15
look at the Carlo hit so this was an egregious I don't get it like I don't
27:20
get what boarding is I don't get what goalie interference is but Jamie Ben rides him in the numbers through the
27:27
numbers the numbers were there the whole time and at a dangerous spot too far
27:32
away from the this is the hit they don't want and he drives right into him yeah right into him catapults him into the
27:39
boards and they call it a major and then after review decide it's not and it's a
27:45
minor if I'm Jim Montgomery I am throwing sticks on the ice like I am out
27:51
of my mind and that would be an instance where you would show your behind the
27:56
team and a guy who's been concussed 48 times yeah like I'm not waiting until
28:05
the beginning of the second period to get an explanation no I'm firing
28:10
something at the referee so he comes over to me and says hey why'd you throw that puck at me right explain your
28:17
[ __ ] self jackass explain yeah I would get thrown out I would I would make it a purpose of mine to get thrown
28:24
out of that game like I would get on the ice and waddle over to him and slide
28:30
over to him and slip Slide Away fall down on the ice end up on my ass halfway there but I'd be screaming the whole
28:37
time arms flailing um all right Herer number
28:42
4305 welcome we are now the calary Flames last decade we inherit their
28:48

29:25
little Z was it money shot money shot who was money shot who was money shot I can't remember
29:32
everything but the money shot was that's what it was yeah Beach Beach's money shot yeah so we got money
29:40
shot we got one hand Freddy yeah we got little Z little Z thanks to
29:46
her T says before we start sorry John absolutely hot take pasta is a 100 foot
29:51
player does not represent the Bruins culture I just feel that that panak is doing so many undisciplined things
29:58
things that he doesn't typically do like there's something wrong and I don't know
30:03
if it's just him saying hey there's something wrong and I'm just gonna do what the hell I want to do I don't know
30:09
what it is but he hasn't really changed the way he's played since being benched
30:15
like he said the right things but he's still doing the same undisciplined stuff I don't know what it is with him I don't
30:22
this is not typically what he is like he's typically fairly you know he's never going to be a sulky winner but
30:29
he's typically fairly responsible he plays a fine game like this is not
30:34
typically him I don't know what the problem is he's he's always turned the puck over and he always always turned
30:40
the puck over but penalties and the whole thing is is off and I don't know
30:46
what it is I don't know um this decent showing by the cups I actually thought
30:52
Patrick Brown was okay like there were some times where he was skating but he's St I mean he's not very good he was
30:58
years old yeah and he has not no future like he's just out there big you know
31:03
he's got some decent skating ability and he was rushing the puck fairly well like he did okay he was fine OST fine yeah I
31:12
thought Oly was fine I mean he had to bun Bo I don't think he he didn't hurt
31:18
anybody I mean Carlo and lowai were the two with the minus threes yeah zorov was minus two makavo o and W spoon all even
31:26
yeah I thought o was F fine you know and if that's way he's going to be you know until lolm gets better or until Peete
31:32
gets better really then that's fine um Freddy does Freddy does need to catch a
31:38
ride with Monty like send those two together did you did you hear and I I
31:44
have no idea if this is a true rumor or uh whatever but someone on Twitter said
31:49
that uh through the grape vine they heard that hampus LOL had a broken kneecap is what yeah and we're talking
31:56
about like at least 6 to8 weeks if there if there's no surgery it's like six to8
32:02
weeks if there's surgery needed it's like 3 to six months yeah so that's kind of the and I'm and I'm guessing it's
32:09
like a hopefully a hairline or some you know not really uh you know big time
32:16
yeah hopefully it's just like a little fracture and it didn't separate right you know well we're looking at New
32:22
Year's Day we're looking at at least you know we're looking at a January by the
32:28
time he comes back ready to go I mean I'm I'm I'm getting to the point now
32:33
where I'm thinking about like tank mode yeah or at least at least shift the
32:39
roster mode like at least make a couple of moves that are really like sending
32:45
the message that I that's what I'd like to see I don't necessarily I mean tanking yeah I don't know how I feel
32:51
about you still have you still have a few good players there I don't know but yeah I mean you still do have good players I I would make a couple I would
33:00
make a couple of moves of players like Frederick and Carlo or I mean I would make a couple of moves of players that
33:08
you know you would think are are nucleus guys are core guys and I would do it I
33:14
would do it I would at least kick the tires on it um don't let the third place
33:20
standing fool you we will not make the playoffs no matter who we fire or trade for and I think we I think we've hit
33:27
that that that point where you know other teams got better the Bruins have
33:32
gotten a little worse now they have coaching issues they have roster issues now they have injury issues like it's
33:39
just it was bound to happen and I think it's been a 10year cycle 06 you know 15
33:45
16 and now we're into 24 25 it's been that 10e cycle here's here we are again
33:51
yeah and I think that's that's kind of what it is uh Dan Maynard how did pasta
33:56
go from that many shots on net last game back to this how the [ __ ] does that
34:01
happen pasta is my guy but this is embarrassing I it wasn't a great effort from him I mean he gets his goal like
34:08
it's such Fool's Gold you know what I mean like he's he's got eight goals and he's leads the team in points and he's
34:15
got to get it he's GNA score 40 goals but it's such fool's gold right now it's it just is yeah I mean I mean I I don't
34:24
know like I I'm not one of those people and I've always hated like the you play
34:30
the you know the the fun pump the crowd up music when you getting your ass
34:36
[ __ ] reamed like I'm not a Sweet Caroline in all situations I'm not a you
34:42
know play the play the Happy music you know play living on prayer when you're get when you're losing by 20 everything
34:48
is awesome I'm not yeah I'm not that guy so like when I was like you know yay
34:58
yeah [ __ ] like now you're down four I was almost pissed yeah I was almost more
35:04
pissed I wanted him to lose nine to one I was almost more pissed don't make it close screw you don't make it close I
35:10
mean I I actually I you know I was kind of rooting for them to put then up
35:15
because that's what I said yeah was happen before the game yeah Dan mayor says he's surprised that I didn't fall
35:21
asleep again I am too Dan I am very surprised I had a couple of Bourbons at a bourbon tasting
35:28
before the yeah before the game and I thought I'd be sound asleep fast asleep
35:33
uh t-boss is going to move to Australia with Dan and watching some athletes with the balls that be should have um Matt
35:40
papa says biggest team in the league is a fact but they must lead the NHL in
35:46
flybys like that last goal from Dallas and this [ __ ] team is soft plus the
35:52
effort level is a concern these guys are getting paid and I'm telling you that seventh goal by Dallas was exactly what
35:59
Matt's saying like that was two flybys two weak ass stick checks a bad a bad
36:07
non Puck battle win from geeky to start it and then a two-on-one and a goal it
36:13
was like it was just like it was like a drill in practice it was like a just a
36:19
bad drill where you blow the whistle and put everybody on the line it was just awful um Dan Mander says can you bring
36:26
me a Bender's t-shirt do what uh San let's talk about SW oh no we
36:33
gotta we gotta address this first uh Dan uh Bender merchandise available
36:40
uh.com time out right here Smitty it sounds like you might be able to do a little bit of trading with uh Dan from
36:47
Australia if he wants to send you a little package what is you getting like crocodile teeth yeah crocodile
36:54
hunter do you have any uh yeah great whiskey whiskey all right
37:02
that's there it is Dan yeah so whiskey whiskey for shirt yeah love it uh keep
37:08
your uh lethal spiders in Australia Dan thank you very much don't have that in
37:13
the packaging uh trap says San is garage let's talk about Swan 816 save
37:19
percentage tonight I I happen to think that he stinks right now like right now
37:24
he does like I I just I just think he doesn't look good I I get that the team in front of them
37:30
has not been great and so forth but these are saves that they made there are some saves there that they made last
37:37
year and two years ago and we've talked about this like he's not making those saves now and I don't love it I don't
37:45
love the way he looks and you know I'm hoping that he finds his game the team
37:51
finds his game and it starts to come together but I this is not 8.25 as
37:56
Connor said our producer says all the time every time the other team scores Conor will
38:02
text us 8.25 yeah and I'm telling you I might be I might be coming to the dark
38:07
side you're on board with that I might I might piss me off one of us I'm I'm with
38:14
you I don't think he's been great um he was before before tonight statistically
38:22
one of the best goalies in the league five on five he had like a 940 or something like that right but short uh
38:30
short-handed he was one of the worst goalies in the league worst so he was not making saves was not your best
38:36
penalty killer yeah which you know a lot that's what brick says goalie needs to be your best needs to be your best
38:41
penalty killer and he has not been that at all he's been the opposite of that one of the worst goalies in the league
38:49
uh when the Bruins have been short-handed um I think part of that I I'll say it is is in relation to the way
38:57
that they kill penalties right now because if you have you know back door tappins and zadorov you know at the top
39:04
of the circle giv up two on On's down low um then you're not gonna make many
39:10
saves in those situations I think the defense has been terrible in front of him but he certainly needs to be better
39:16
than he has been I mean what are you paying the guy for if he's not going to make big saves at Big moments it's it's
39:22
a waste so you that's what you pay him for I mean you want to make
39:28
so yeah I'm not I'm not probably where you guys are but I'm like 75% of the way
39:35
I'm almost there you know if he has another one of these games you know you can't give you can't give up a goal a
39:43
minute into the game when you don't where I watch the play I'm like how did
39:48
that go in you you can't give that up no like
39:53
you need a save there you do you have and the because I thought the Bruins
39:59
were pretty good in the first and you're coming off that you know big win yeah
40:06
and you give up a goal minute into the [ __ ] game you can't [ __ ] do that
40:12
at an angle where you should be down that angle and making that safe yes I agree with tra tra said after Swan is
40:19
garbage he said Cory start should starts the next two I would have him start I think I think he should give Swan like
40:27
give him a mental break like Sit Them Down have them [ __ ] you know text
40:32
lenus they can hug each other everything's great and uh here's the thing when he plays like
40:39
this that other [ __ ] makes you even more annoyed you know what I'm saying that [ __ ] like like that [ __ ] it does that
40:48
[ __ ] the contract stuff the I know what my value is all that [ __ ] comes back
40:54
and now I'm saying like now I'm even more pissed at yeah like at least at least put your
41:00
money where your mouth is and make a [ __ ] save just make a save I said it
41:06
I said it when the hold out was happening I said if he starts slowly which he has he's gonna [ __ ] hear it
41:14
from people which he has deservedly so deservedly so deservedly so um the Sip
41:22
tonight from tbuzz is Buffalo Trace antique love bual yeah he's a big
41:28
Buffalo Trace guy um the uh whiskey roads chimes in fitting anyone still
41:36
think this team is a playoff team no currently constituted no no um I I think
41:42
that Ottawa is gonna you know be there in and you know I don't know it's GNA be
41:47
a struggle it's gonna be a struggle tell you what this this this might turn into
41:53
uh a whiskey bourbon podcast if the Bruins keep playing like this we're gonna have Dan we're gonna
41:59
have t-b we're gonna have whiskey roads on you and I both have bourbon tonight it's going to be uh it's gonna be a a
42:06
you know a drinking bbon Ruckus the laus Leia lamia sway Slayer L lus
42:14
lus uh and he says uh that he's a 60 plus year Leaf fan he comes in peace
42:20
really likes the show appreciate it uh and a fan of original six teams Outsider opinion keeping it real first time I've
42:26
watched EX Team and seeing not enough first and second line talent and that is
42:32
correct you uh welcome first of all Yes uh and you're spat on you're 100%
42:41
correct your Outsider opinion is right it is correct didn't take you long the
42:47
Leafs have more Talent Ottawa has more Talent um we went through it actually
42:53
earlier in the season we talked we did we did uh and Bruins within the Atlantic division um I
43:01
would say what six of the six of the other teams have we had Montreal
43:10
team te uh Montreal and possibly Buffalo possibly Buffalo right um although we
43:17
love Tage Thompson better than everybody else yeah we do but we love Tage and we
43:23
and we uh you know they have some good Youngs there yeah
43:29
Conor Connor says please get a gift I mean I'm sorry tbba says to Connor please get a gift of Monty yawning and
43:36
loop it with the I haven't mixed up the lines I think that's a great idea yeah
43:42
that's I will try my best for you my brother uh yes for sure uh appreciate
43:48
you jumping on Charlie and T greedy lyol is invisible and I've just discussed
43:55
that uh in I I agree with you 100% I just I tried to listen for his name like
44:01
I tried to watch what he was doing and I just didn't see much like I just didn't
44:06
see much and at one point I thought did he get hurt or something I even thought that like what is he not what is he
44:14
doing because it just doesn't seem like there's much there and he's your number one Center like that's a big problem too
44:20
maybe poso sees that too like he's trying to do more than than he needs to because the center doesn't do much
44:27
you know yeah I mean it's it's a problem it's a problem he's he hasn't really
44:35
meshed with anyone so you know there you
44:41
go yeah I don't know I don't know what he does to create scoring chances he
44:46
doesn't he doesn't drive the line he doesn't nothing yeah I mean look he he made a great play behind the net to win
44:53
a puck battle and feed Martian for the overtime game win winner um you know a
44:59
couple days ago so you know there you go that's that's his one highlight this year sorry what I'm looking at a at a
45:06
comment from Dan who says to answer your question the other day guys yes everything in Australia can kill
45:14
you it's crazy how many common things just in my state alone can kill you with
45:20
a single bite I'm telling you I you were right you know what I'm saying yeah [ __ ]
45:26
right can't do it like I can't live there like
45:32
I can't I can't live there I mean I'm afraid of a bumblebee would like I I dodge
45:39
bumblebees like all summer long like I run from them like I can't I can't have
45:45
something just B me in the ankle and kill me yeah that's ridiculous if you
45:50
saw you know it's no D Daddy Long leads dong H yeah Daddy daddy dong leg daddy
45:58
dong leg Yeah that's what they call him in Australia daddy leg what player nickname
46:06
gets daddy dong I'll take that one thank you right
46:12
right um so say uh savwa cross I'm gonna
46:17
go French on that guy the players aren't playing their best because Monty system
46:22
doesn't allow for them to play the style that brings out their best and I think there's a problem with style that he
46:28
likes to play the system he likes to play and the new players that they got they went bigger and heavier and he
46:35
likes to move it and be quick with it and I think there's a disconnect there I don't think they considered his system
46:41
much when they wanted to get bigger and heavier that's why I think the identity screwed I just think that's a problem
46:48
you know and I think that's I don't know I don't know if they know what their identity is supposed to be right now
46:55
right that's the thing I think the coach wants a a a fast
47:00
transition you know quickup team and you know neie SL Sweeny we'll say wants a
47:09
bigger physical below the goal lines you know possession team and they're kind of
47:15
caught in between and I don't know if um you know there's enough buying from you
47:22
know feels system or the players to play whatever system they're trying to coach
47:29
it feels like they they're not comfortable with the system and they just don't believe in it yeah I don't think anybody believes in anything over
47:35
there right now and I think Montgomery doesn't believe in what they're doing either clearly by his body language yeah
47:41
he doesn't he doesn't believe in that team at all yeah yeah no I know watching
47:48
watching him stand there I he doesn't believe it there's no there's no fight there's no like it's us against them
47:55
kind of a thing there's nothing for you're getting like a blank slate you're
48:00
getting that stare from a guy who's resigned to the fact that he's probably going to lose his job and he just stands
48:06
there with his hands in his pockets like it looks so bad like it looks so bad it really does and I can't believe someone
48:12
hasn't said to him like Jesus can you can you just like Pace like Pace a little bit yeah something like something
48:20
bang the glass behind you something Bo stop jerking yourself off through your pain I mean stop playing pocket pool
48:27
uh Charlie says it's rebuilding time I think we're getting there with you Charlie I really do I I I I think I
48:33
think a a move or two like a core like a core guy and you can debate what what
48:40
level of core that is but a couple a guy or two on the core to go and make a
48:46
hockey trade like make a hockey trade which Don Sweeny really doesn't do I mean the last time he tried to make a
48:52
hockey trade it was Riley Smith Jimmy Hayes like that didn't go well like I don't I don't know I mean it's but
48:59
that's what they need I think that that's what they need uh they need to start changing this this core a bit and
49:04
then and then really you know decide who your coach is and what style you want to play and get if it's a if it's a Craig
49:11
barui type or if it's someone it wouldn't be him but if it's someone that plays you know a heavier game and buys
49:18
into that system and fits the Personnel then do that but I think you have a a
49:24
mismatch of coach and players and roster and it's just not it's just a little off
49:30
kilter right now uh Jimmy meetti giving loot to a goalie who has one playoff
49:36
Road win Playoff round win instead of top six Wing they need a blow up of the
49:42
score and I'll tell you what James we talked about getting gensel or someone
49:48
like that instead of lyol uh Smitty was adamant about it
49:53
because yes you need a Topline Center but there wasn't there wasn't one there
49:58
so don't just go get a center you know because it's you chased the
50:04
position and that usually is a recipe for failure if you chase the position
50:10
and it's not quite what you need then you end up just continuing to chase it
50:15
and that's what we have now with the Bruins so instead go get a guy who could score 40 goals and put them on the other
50:21
side of poshak and then figure out the center later put zacho with them and zacho get 60 points and whatever and and
50:28
they'll score 40 a piece and at least you have a fighting chance with the Top Line you know that's that's the way I
50:35
looked at it then and that's the way I look at it now you can go back to the tape yeah uh Ann says time for Freddy to
50:42
get traded I'm with you Ann I would trade Freddy by Thanksgiving I would I would see what
50:49
you can get for him here's the other thing this is what I was going to ask you today while I was in the car uh I
50:55
don't know what I was doing but I wasn't you know so I was driving and I'm thinking about this situation with Trent
51:01
Frederick I don't know why I'm consumed by Trent Frederick but it's like three years going now yeah but but I said to
51:08
myself you know what if you're Dawn Sweeney if you're GM a
51:13
GM in general and you think that you might not have full job security like
51:19
you might not be around do you do you when you trade a guy like Freddy do you
51:25
accumulate picks when you think you might not even be here to make those picks like say someone says yeah we'll
51:31
give you a second rounder in 26 and you're like well Jesus as a GM like I don't even know if I'll make that
51:37
pick two years from now so I want to go get a guy instead I want to go get a guy that might help us win quicker so and is
51:45
so my question to you is is that play into you know there's a little bit of selfishness there does that play into
51:52
what you might receive in return for a guy like Frederick sure it will I 100%
51:59
think so I 100% buy what you're saying yeah I I do I think they're worried about their job security so they want to
52:05
win now so they're they're not looking for um you know a second round pick in a
52:12
couple years no you know they want a guy that can help them win so yeah I I 100%
52:19
think that could affect the return here's the more important question Maddie how many hands on the wheel did
52:25
you have while you were thinking about that uh just one I was I had I had
52:31
both and my right knee on the wheel and that one well here's the tweet I I just
52:36
randomly was scrolling through looking at some postgame stuff and I saw this and I got a chuckle out of it and I hope
52:42
you do to Gans at guzzler talking about Don Sweeney cooking up this Bruins
52:47
roster the most Bland plate of food you could imagine wow that is that is like what
52:54
you feed your dog when it has an upset stomach or something isn't it that's uh I mean that is that is the 2425 bosson
53:03
Bruins right there no it is Bland Bland and and about to run right
53:08
through you the uh 24 25 BS of Bruins Dennis fby they will never win a cup
53:15
with Don swi is GM that's probably a valid point Dennis honestly Bland in something you can't something that can't
53:22
finish no that's the brost and Bruins yeah uh
53:28
let me see Gus Elias lolm $54 million floater uh but I'll tell you there's
53:35
just not a lot of substance there with him I mean he made that great play y to win the game against
53:41
Calgary um but other than that I mean he just doesn't seem to do much I don't see
53:46
hear his name much like I don't see the impact that they need um you know and is
53:53
there is a reason why they got you know he's on his whatever it is fourth team
53:58
in the league too uh which is another whole thing Elias Lindholm is third on
54:04
the team in points right now yeah because rest the team stinks yeah you know he he came out of the gate with
54:11
like two goals and three assists like in the first five games it hasn't done a hell of a lot since like let's let's
54:18
look yeah uh one two three four
54:24
five so he has one point in his last five games yeah right
54:30
great um how about the Trevor zis nonsense like Joe haggy was talking
54:36
about this and I try not to listen to it but but Trevor zis is I I don't want
54:42
Trevor zis if you think Trevor zis is any bit of a of a help to this team he'd
54:49
be everything wrong with this team like and I I used to like Trevor zus but this
54:54
is not the type of guy you bring in here you like hard guys let me get the fire
54:59
host Joe Hagerty is really throwing things out there because people like Chris Johnston and Darren Dreger and
55:07
Pierre LeBron are all saying that the Ducks aren't going to move on from him and they're gonna keep him so to each
55:13
their own there and they were saying that four or five days ago and Hager is now bringing this up now yeah well good
55:22
uh so that's a Nonpoint but I that's not the type of guy you need you know it just just not uh tank mode so so Jonesy
55:30
says if not tank mode then play youngsters mode and here's the thing
55:35
about the potra thing that I thought was interesting he made a comment today or
55:40
whatever it was that said that he was a little disappointed and a little surprised so then people started to say
55:48
wait a minute why is he surprised like why where is this coming from then they they just never talk to him like this
55:54
could be coming nothing no communication so that's the and that's probably on
55:59
Sweeney and then Jim Montgomery actually says that it's that it's Don Sweeney and
56:06
Ethan gold or Evan gold or what Evan gold who make the decision on who gets
56:13
called up and down so I thought to myself Welly that's interesting like the
56:18
general manager in the assistant general manager decide who gets called up and down over the coach the coach doesn't
56:25
make that decision so again we're handing you this
56:31
roster Jim Montgomery you make chicken salad out of chicken [ __ ] go ahead like but he has no that's not his say to
56:40
determine who comes up and down and then they didn't really communicate with ptra all that much and just kind of sprung in
56:46
onum were sending it down and ptra was actually surprised I don't I don't love
56:53
how that sounds that's why I think I think Sweeney asked to go as well I I I
56:58
like I as much as I think Montgomery has his issues and we've talked about I
57:04
talked about the roster too I think you can put this on everyone you can put it
57:09
on Sweeney and Neely you can put it on Montgomery you can put it on the players everyone is culpable there are no people
57:16
here that aren't at fault in some way or shape or form everybody is at fault uh
57:24
so Sweeny needs to um you know communicate better if if
57:30
ptra doesn't know what you know what's happening how how is that possible
57:37
really right you know I hear you I hear you yeah I I I think now more than ever
57:44
that Sweeney dictates the roster and it's Sweeney that is so that is so
57:50
resistant to play the younger guys and give them a real chance you know that's
57:56
the problem is he's so worried about missing the Playoffs yeah I mean there it is that's there it is it goes to his
58:03
job he so he says part of the reason is Cassidy wasn't giving the young guys a
58:09
chance so what did he say well we're gonna bring in a guy who gives him a chance we'd think Montgomery can give the young guys a chance and really coach
58:15
the young guys up and then they still treat the young guys the same way so it's Sweeney full of [ __ ] is what it is
58:21
yeah it's it's Sweeny who is holding those guys back and not letting them
58:27
learn and and you know I would bring up lell right now I don't care I haven't
58:32
seen a thing about Providence I don't care I'd bring them up and I'd give them
58:38
six or eight games and I'd put him on a line with some people who can play and I'd see what he can do because what's
58:45
the alternative you're getting your doors blown off by Dallas like what's the alternative how can it be any worse
58:53
why does why do why do all these other teams teams bring their young guys up
58:58
and don't seem to have issues they don't but the Bruins can't the young players
59:04
all over the league crack the lineup they can't yeah you know Logan sten's out there you know scoring goals
59:14
he's Wyatt Johnson Sam Ste like they have a bunch of young guys who play and
59:19
contribute every team does koven was awesome last year for them in the playoffs as it work was he was uh it was
59:28
and you know you don't even give the guy a chance who was a first round pick for
59:33
you not even a chance can't like you're just like he has speed he has some skill
59:39
uh but we don't like his you know we don't like his defensive game do you like anybody's defensive game right now
59:45
on the team no the team stinks that's what I'm saying if yeah if the bar was set and
59:53
two years ago you were you were shutting teams down and and allowing the lowest amount of goals in the league okay then
59:59
I could probably get it but now you stink defensively so just let him play
1:00:04
he's got some Talent just let him play yeah I I just like I just don't get it I just don't get it like you have a team
1:00:12
full of guys turning the puck over left and right H it would be one thing if you brought him up and he's like a you know
1:00:18
a minus 10 and the rest and everybody else is plus 20 then it's like yeah we can't have him out there he's a
1:00:25
detriment but everybody's a [ __ ] detriment right now you don't have a guy on the goddamn team that can complete a
1:00:31
[ __ ] pass to each other yeah or or do anything right everybody's turning the puck over left and right you don't have
1:00:38
a goalie you can make a save you got Freddy out there with one hand tied behind his back trying to play one-handed like he's [ __ ] Derek
1:00:44
Sanderson tring to trying to sweep check everyone yeah like what the [ __ ] are we doing yeah give the kid a chance it's
1:00:51
just yeah I just I'm tired of you know the tties and the Patrick Browns and what what what does Patrick Brown yeah
1:00:58
what's that GNA do like what's that going to do like come on he has no
1:01:03
future here like don't put a guy in that has no future that's what I mean I'm
1:01:10
with you there like I just I just don't understand I mean is Neely over
1:01:15
Sweeney's head like you know I think I think everybody's all tied up in their own underwear I be I'll be honest I just
1:01:22
think that Neely has one philosophy Sweeny has another Montgomery has no no idea cuz he wants to coach a certain way
1:01:28
and it's just a discombobulated mess and Sweeney is so paranoid to not miss the playoffs that he's gonna try like hell
1:01:35
to squeeze every point they can just to get there so that he can save his job
1:01:40
that's what it is he doesn't want to take any chances you know uh Dan says he's gonna send some veite I don't know
1:01:46
what that is I know that met it work saying about it thank you yeah but he's going to send some Vite and he can't uh
1:01:53
send get a bender shirt because it's $25 the ship is so uh
1:02:00
Green from Australia out will you send that by Dan if you're still around send
1:02:07
me an email at C green insid the rink.com I'll see what I can do to help
1:02:13
you out oh who I'll tell you what the big boy has spoken look at that producer
1:02:19
Conor I mean he seems like he's just uh you know a two- bit felon on this
1:02:25
program but he actually makes things happen at at inside the rink he's kind
1:02:30
of a he's kind of a big deal it's kind of a big deal in those hallways so uh
1:02:36
yeah yeah Dan ask him if he can send us a shirt too that'd be sweet uh yeah so uh give corpy the next
1:02:44
two games says Trav and you are correct Trav I'd give it to him too um I don't
1:02:51
know that's that's the way Bruins meet they will make the playoffs and bow out first round that's another that's
1:02:57
another good scenario um that's uh this team is too terrible to make the playoffs as whisky
1:03:04
roads time to blow it up brown should not be up with the team says Trav I
1:03:09
agree with you I just think it's kind of a waste like what what are we trying to prove with Patrick Brown I don't I don't
1:03:15
understand um bring up LEL says Trav and um I like the fact I hope this
1:03:23
happens that Patra and lysel will play together and just develop some chemistry
1:03:28
you know what I mean like just develop some chemistry so that maybe next year those guys have played a bunch together
1:03:34
like that that [ __ ] makes sense like can we do that I I like I I like I told you I lik
1:03:41
that idea I think it it's a sneaky good way to get those guys some CH chemistry yeah wi whiskey says Swan is now 56 and
1:03:49
two with a 325 goes against and an 885 save percentage I mean for crying out
1:03:54
loud that's not good it's not good at all 8.25 that's that's Corp pasalo last
1:03:59
year yeah I mean fiction about Corp pasalo yeah I mean the team's bad I mean it's plain and simple the team's bad
1:04:05
it's not a it's not a good team they're they they I we've talked about it before
1:04:11
what do they do well nothing yeah nothing nothing what
1:04:17
do you what do you believe about Brock Nelson keba says he likes the Brock Nelson rumor this point I'll try anybody
1:04:25
Point Brock Nelson can score goals I believe yeah better than guys better
1:04:31
than guys we have he he absolutely it's absolutely um yeah so I you know I don't
1:04:39
know at at this point the Boston Bruins are just up and down the roller coaster
1:04:45
they're 88 and two uh they they've had two what we thought with galvanizing
1:04:51
wins um nothing has come from it they've taken two steps back after both of them
1:04:58
they were shut out by the Flyers after the first time at home and then this
1:05:03
game here after their supposed second galvanizing win so that you know this is
1:05:09
what we have um you know I don't know this decline happened over the summer
1:05:14
Dan I think largely because marshand was dinged up coming back from
1:05:21
surgeries I think their pre-season was not great like had guys who were
1:05:27
rehabbing coming back not ready to go linol Coy Martian posano all nursing
1:05:36
some injuries or some rehab or something not able to get you know full training
1:05:41
camp full regimen that's part of it you know that is part of it swayan as well
1:05:48
nowhere to be found so you put all those things together it's kind of a disjointed preseason summer and
1:05:56
preseason so that's part of it and then everybody got married and that's part of
1:06:02
it too I don't care what anybody says just just drinking and carrying on all
1:06:07
summer long Brewing it just seemed like they've even said it just seemed like they weren't gonna be ready to go in
1:06:12
October because they just didn't value it they just didn't value it they said it out loud yeah they did say it out
1:06:18
loud by the way Brock Nelson three straight 30 goal Seasons hey well Jesus then yeah I love
1:06:24
the Brock Nelson I then um and he has
1:06:29
scored at least 18 goals in every single year
1:06:35
going back to 145 okay um Taz uh I don't know brick said
1:06:42
something about Tyler Johnson not being available tonight do you know what happened
1:06:47
there uh I think he just had some bump crises yeah yeah yeah I mean he has been
1:06:54
you know didn't play at all right and then gets thrown in for a couple of games and probably just needed
1:06:59
a night some bumps and bruises and he's not a big guy so he got
1:07:06
banged a few times so yeah I mean but again you know Tyler Johnson has not
1:07:12
been the Savior that everybody thought he'd be so I mean it's it's right now this team
1:07:20
has to play a certain way you I mean you talked about this at the beginning of the year like they got got to win two to
1:07:26
one games three to2 games they got to play a certain way to win they have to they think they are they think they can
1:07:33
play a certain other way some of these players they think they are the Soviet Red Army they do and they're the 80us
1:07:40
Olympic team right yes yes they need to have a little bit of Underdog to their
1:07:46
game they need they need to yeah they need better discipline they need to work
1:07:51
harder they need to win Puck battles they need to be willing to shots they need to be better in front of their own
1:07:57
net they need to shoot from the points they need to shoot from anywhere they need to get tips and
1:08:03
rebounds they're not Wayne Gretzky they're not Mario Lemieux they're
1:08:09
not Conor McDavid they're not Nathan McKinnon they're not Jack eel they're
1:08:15
not any of those guys they're a bunch of third and fourth line guys that need to
1:08:20
work extremely hard and win Puck battles and get Puck that to win yeah and get
1:08:26
good goal tending which I Nei I think you know that's very true I think cam
1:08:31
from lock on Baylor has it has it pegged Phil kessle sitting around let's get Phil to eat some hot dogs and score some
1:08:38
goals love it you know um cam berer says how we get Nelson who's leaving to make
1:08:45
that happen do you think like a Freddy Freddy and something for Nelson you
1:08:50
think that works you think what what would it take to get Nelson do they have what it takes
1:08:56
probably not no I I don't think they really have anything good to offer
1:09:02
anyone no I don't think so I think they have their four guys they will never trade and then the rest of the guys are
1:09:08
eh you know they're not going to get what you think they're not no and they don't have I mean they have a first
1:09:14
round pick are they gonna trade that again why I mean maybe maybe Freddy and a in a pick or Freddy and
1:09:22
somebody else would get Nelson possibly Freddy's what 25 26 and Nelson's 33 Okay okay I mean
1:09:32
Freddy and a third I mean I might be be might behind it you know Freddy in a
1:09:38
third Freddy I I mean I'd probably do Freddy in a second Freddy in a second okay mean the guy scored 30 Freddy in a
1:09:44
second and 26 how about that yeah because you don't have a second now I
1:09:50
mean he had he had 69 points last year 79 points uh sorry 75 points two years
1:09:56
ago 34 and 36 goals in both of those years Jesus I mean he's a he's a
1:10:03
producer yeah but but here's the thing you had instead of going and making a
1:10:08
real push for gensel or someone now you have to now you have to you know recover
1:10:15
and and trade something for Brock Nelson who's 33 just to get that guy that you
1:10:20
need like that's just poor Asset Management it's poor it's poor all the way around yeah I mean like I I I mean
1:10:29
I've I'm I'm not a fan of Sweeny I never how about this how about this move and
1:10:35
I'm just Jake gensel may never have come here so I'm just but I'm just playing the game because it's fine he probably wouldn't have he probably wouldn't so
1:10:41
like let's say you sign you sign gensel and you have Pak and gensel and you play ptra with them from the gecko like it's
1:10:48
ptra centering those two guys yep you know for and you're saying we're going
1:10:54
to do it for the first couple months we're just going to do it yeah and it's that kind of a ballsy kind of move yeah
1:11:00
what do you think where do you think what do you think you have right now uh you have a better offensive team
1:11:08
tell you that better power play you have you have ptra producing you have him
1:11:13
making plays for those two guys and they're scoring goals you know what I mean like put your young players in a
1:11:19
position to succeed don't play them on the third line with Max Jones and Morgan geeky
1:11:25
you could put Charlie Coyle between the two of them those guys you could put Mark
1:11:32
castlec between the two of them that would win faceoffs and bang
1:11:37
bodies and get and get pucks for those guys sure like that's what I was saying about
1:11:44
the whole thing like you don't need to spend $8 million on Elias lindol right
1:11:50
you overspent on a guy who's not a number one Center because you could plug in like a third line guy with those two
1:11:58
guys and he would produce which is probably what happened in [ __ ]
1:12:03
Calgary when Elias Lindholm was centering to Chuck and gadrow right two
1:12:09
firstline guys with a third line guy and guess what the third
1:12:16
line 42 assists or whatever and 82 points yeah he did he did had a point
1:12:22
per game those guys yeah everybody was FOC on them and this [ __ ] standing in
1:12:27
front of the net banging in [ __ ] rebounds yeah well there you have it I
1:12:33
don't know where we go from here I mean the Bruins will take on the St Louis Blues Saturday afternoon yeah they just
1:12:41
lost the two lead Boston they're gonna be ready to to to win the game it's a
1:12:47
one o'clock game on Saturday Bruns are coming back home yeah too oh my goodness it's all lining
1:12:55
up for another wet fart on Saturday afternoon at TD Garden 1:00 we will have
1:13:00
the post game live after that one be uh together for that one I believe no yeah
1:13:08
I think it's it's possible okay um so you know we'll see but um I don't know
1:13:16
but I don't know what's going to happen then uh our B blood pressure has risen
1:13:21
to an unhealthy level and now it's there's really no way to go but down like it's just like you said like we
1:13:27
might be a little bit more subdued as the year goes on but uh Bruins Blues
1:13:33
Saturday afternoon we will see everybody then hey thanks for the comments but it's a it's a great one I'll say this
