0:02
zadorov actually one of the leaders that
0:08
needs I mean it's weird to it's weird to
0:12
say it yeah um you know with him being
0:16
here for 52 games yeah but he might be
0:20
yeah he might be might be um he was one
0:25
of the few guys in that travesty in
0:27
Buffalo that actually did something
0:30
towards the end like and was it uncalled
0:33
for probably was it dumb probably um but
0:36
I didn't have any problem with it at all
0:38
gave JJ PKA a little you know how do you
0:41
do towards the end um you know when it
0:44
was of icing or an off sides or whatever
0:47
it was I don't even know yeah and gave
0:50
him a little something and PKA came back
0:51
at him and then he and then he dropped
0:53
the gloves and like you want to go
0:54
little man I will pound the [ __ ] out of
1:00
um you know I think they need that kind
1:03
of fight and then he's talking about I
1:04
didn't come here to not make the
1:06
playoffs I came here to make the
1:08
playoffs which is another thing I like
1:11
you know he's talking about you know
1:13
it's not about oh you know we need to be
1:15
better as a group and you know we're all
1:19
trying to find our game and you know
1:21
it's disappointing when we don't start
1:22
no he's like no I didn't come here to
1:24
not make the playoffs I came here to
1:26
play playoff hockey yeah that's what I
1:28
that's what we should be focused on
1:30
right and I like that so yeah um is he a
1:33
leader well he shouldn't be but no
1:36
because he's brand new to the team but
1:40
yeah he might be and and um you know
1:43
there's worse things to say worse things
1:44
to follow and look people want to crush
1:46
the guy about how he's been playing um
1:50
and I would say overall after the first
1:54
you know month month and a half he's
1:55
been pretty good he's been okay he's
1:58
he's a plus nine yeah I mean look
2:00
there's been a lot of that and Ty
2:02
Anderson pointed it out like he's plus
2:05
eight or something with the goal he
2:07
pulled so so that's a great stat yeah so
2:12
he's really more like plus one yeah but
2:15
still on this plus one when the team is
2:17
minus 25 yeah um still says something
2:22
people can [ __ ] on him all they want
2:24
yeah after the first you know after the
2:26
first you know month and a half or so
2:29
he's been pretty good he's been one of
2:31
your better defensemen he um
2:37
think he'll be fine and he he may end up
2:41
he may end up before all said and done
2:43
here he may end up with an A on a
2:45
sweater and producer Connor wants to
2:46
jump in and uh say something here is is
2:51
his plus minus so good because he spends
2:54
like a quarter of every game in the
2:55
penalty box or what well maybe I mean
2:58
maybe they when they he's in the Box
3:00
when they score I don't know I don't
3:02
know no because the plus minus doesn't
3:04
uh isn't affected by power play yeah
3:07
penalty killing but he's off the ice
3:09
like if he was on the ice more I think
3:11
that's what Conor means yeah well in the
3:13
penalty yeah he's in 150 minutes yeah
3:17
yeah yeah well like the other night
3:20
though he got two and two and 10 but
3:23
like so 10 doesn't count really yeah so
3:30
know I think he's been okay like he's
3:33
not worth the money but I think he's
3:35
been okay I think he's I think he's been
3:37
I think he has settled in to a third
3:40
perer demand which they're overpaying
3:42
for so yeah I mean you have
3:45
it yeah I I think ideally that's that's
3:49
what you where you would want him and
3:51
yeah they did overpay because he really
3:53
probably should be getting like three
3:54
and a half right you know and he should
3:57
be playing in the third pair and he
3:58
should be destroying guys like does from
4:00
time to time now right um we were asking
4:02
before where the when the hitting was
4:04
coming and he's doing that now I mean
4:06
people he is for whatever reason don't
4:08
want to acknowledge that but he's doing
4:09
that now he does lighting people up now
4:12
um he does so and he polies the front of
4:15
the net and he's face it he's like he's
4:19
a scary dude he is oh he is yeah you
4:23
know I think come playoff time when you
4:25
can get away with a little bit more in
4:27
front of the net I I think that's his
4:31
time to shine baby but um they won't get
4:34
there as much as he wants them to um you
4:38
know I don't see it happening but um you
4:41
know maybe maybe the signing in the end
4:45
um whenever they do make the playoffs
4:48
will uh will prove Sweeney correct right
4:51
for guy like that he also had that
4:53
sneaky little comment about Montgomery
4:55
saying to Demetri orov talk to him about
4:58
how Monty was and then he's like I we
4:59
didn't really see it yeah and um you
5:02
know it's kind of stepping up for his
5:04
teammates there kind of saying like wait
5:06
a minute let's not put all the onus on
5:07
the players right like guy wasn't what
5:10
we thought I thought he was coming in so
5:13
there's something different there um so
5:15
yeah I mean he's said some things and
5:17
he's done some things that kind of have
5:20
you know made him look like that he's at
5:22
least a team guy and he was sticking up
5:26
for his guys he'll certainly stick up
5:27
for his guys physically yeah um and he
5:30
you know he hasn't been playing that bad
5:32
he's just he hasn't he's just overpaid
5:34
for it and look goes up seven million
5:37
bucks then it doesn't look that bad that
5:39
looks better and better yeah it doesn't
5:41
look that bad in the grand scheme of
5:42
things after all but I'll tell you what
5:44
if they make the playoffs and he acts
5:46
has a playoff like he did last year yeah
5:48
then no yeah a lot of that goes away
5:51
yeah now you gota now somebody ask
5:54
to say sorry to Sweeney I I don't know
5:57
who it will be probably should daddy is
