1:13
coming this summer yeah all over the place looking forward to it all over the place so um well hey hockey season is
1:21
over and the Florida Panthers do survive and win game seven at home two to one uh
1:28
they win the cup many people get their first cup Kyle ooso was one of them 17
1:34
years in the league um Evan Rodriguez with a terrific series to help them win
1:40
Warren foggle was very good for um Edmonton in the series kind of some
1:46
unsung heroes within it it was a really great series after it looked like it was going to be just a sweep and uh
1:54
uneventful yeah it it ended up being a a you know pretty dramatic series and and
1:59
Edmonton played pretty well in game seven on the road uh Florida found a way
2:05
uh you know Edmonton had some chances late there was a big pile up in front of the net with you know McDavid had a
2:11
chance at it and some other guys had waxs at the puck and and uh Florida was able to keep it out and they survive and
2:17
and win at home which is uh you know something the Bruins have struggled with in game sevens yeah I'll tell you what
2:25
what I've learned again relearned is that top
2:31
centers win they take you there just about every single year you need a high
2:37
draft pick Center leading the charge I mean you have to go back to 2011 I think
2:43
with the Bruins really the only team that didn't have a first round top of
2:48
the top half of the first round type of player at Center so and the bruers don't
2:54
have it yeah so there you there you have it I mean yeah I mean in this series
3:00
alone you have barov you have dry cidal and you have McDavid yeah so I mean top
3:05
of the top yeah I mean it that's what you need uh you need that and you need you know gold tending to be good at the
3:12
right time and usually uh you need a stud type of defenseman as well which um
3:18
you know I think Florida you could say I mean they drafted eek out the top of the first round Montour certainly turned
3:24
into um you know a real um impact player on the defensive EV for for Florida and
3:31
Gustaf for forsling is is a you know kind of an underrated guy as well back there for them so Florida's got you know
3:39
they they had probably the best team I mean all year long they were probably the best team um all their pieces fit
3:46
together really well they have depth everywhere they have good goal tending you know they have um intimidation
3:54
physicality speed they have really all the ingredients uh and a good mix the
4:00
ingredients to uh to win you know and Ty Anderson made a good point about the
4:06
profile I guess that the Panthers uh sort of set their roster to so every
4:11
player one through 20 had sort of this sort of same profile and identity I
4:17
guess and it really Florida has done a great job of identifying their identity
4:23
and I'm wondering and I even tweeted out a little bit uh you know what the Bruins
4:28
identity is as you know when they're putting the roster together do they have
4:34
a certain identity and profile when they try to put all 20 guys together they
4:40
don't and we've talked about this before uh they don't know what it is they pretend to know what it is hard to play
4:47
against but that's pretty [ __ ] vague it's vague and we've discovered that yeah yeah so what does that mean does
4:54
that what does that mean does that mean you hit everybody or fight everybody does that mean you're you know tough in
4:59
the corners does it mean you're fast what does that [ __ ] mean it could mean anything so they don't really know
5:06
they don't have a type they should have a type but they don't they don't have a [ __ ] clue what type of player they
5:12
are they just kind of pick random guys like oh this guy's big we're in a big phase now let's get guys that are big oh
5:20
we need guys who are physical we need guys who are fast and they [ __ ] just instead of having a plan and
5:28
sticking to it they kind of switch with the tides however cam ne's feeling on a
5:33
particular day that's the way they turn and it doesn't [ __ ] work for them and it hasn't for a long time so they they
5:41
need to figure it out and and quick honestly we've talked about sort of the
5:47
difference the differences I think that Sweeney and Neely have and what they view as the type of player like Sweeney
5:54
was about Puck moving and playing at a pace and he's more about that and he was an Siz defenseman who could skate like
6:01
so he he's more of that type of guy and Sweeney was throwing through the boards
6:06
get in front of the net you know deflect pucks and score tons of goals and and fight guys and and be old school and I
6:14
think there's a difference in opinion sometimes within those two guys and we've talked about that like and I think
6:20
that's why you see the flip-flops you see neie say go get Nick Richie you know you see him say go get Nick Felino every
6:26
once in a while when he finally gets pissed off and he says why are we getting pushed around and that but to me
6:33
it I think it sort of makes it a little confusing and a little inconsistent in
6:39
developing the roster in the lineup because one guy kind of thinks you should play this way and another guy
6:46
thinks you you should kind of play this way yeah I mean how is that good no I I just don't think that's having two yeah
6:53
having two voices decide what the roster should look like isn't good I mean it's too many cooks in the kitchen you got to
6:59
have one guy who has the final say who is it is it Sweeny or Neely and whoever it is should say these are the type of
7:07
guys I want it's this is the team that we should have and then try to go out
7:12
and get guys that will fit that mold but they don't you know it's Sweeny most of
7:18
the time we think and then Neely occasionally when he like you said when he gets pissed we'll be like we need to
7:24
we need to get bigger we need to get tougher we need to get stronger we need and then you know then all a sudden you
7:29
got guys that are Pat maroon who aren't Puck movers aren't you know
7:36
fast the team doesn't have any speed now so I don't really know what their
7:43
identity is um and it's gonna take them some time to kind of figure out what
7:50
that is and Chaz diet has chimed in and said they definitely didn't have one last year which is 100% true and also
7:56
said that Maddie is SP on which he is most and I true well but I'll say this
8:03
though in in I I think I'm seeing the handwriting on the wall here in the off
8:09
season they they go get castc you know they get a veteran goal tender um and I
8:17
think the talk about Elias lolm I think they're going to sign him I think
8:22
they're trying to load up defensively defensive minded centers defensive minded players defense you know they
8:29
have a good defense now uh defensive group and then the goal tending like I
8:35
don't think they I think that they know they can't go out and get Elite offensive Talent right now I think
8:42
they're going to try to win this way which is you know 200 foot
8:48
game defensive keep the puck out of the net not necessarily clo Julian win
8:53
nothing nothing but but along more of those lines because they know they can't
9:00
get enough game changers offensively they're they they don't have enough game changers offensively I don't
9:06
know why they can't get high-end offensive Talent though there's some out there gel's out there yeah you know
9:13
St yeah why why can't they get it they have you know plenty of cap room to me I
9:21
would have been okay with them saying okay we're going to trade alar and take back whatever like take back a pick and
9:29
a Prospect or Prospect or whatever and literally get rid of the salary I'd
9:34
rather have that I mean we're going to get into this because I'm going to lose my [ __ ] mind about it you are you are um but yeah I mean they have plenty of
9:43
cap room but they could have had more if they weren't talking morons about it if
9:48
they weren't stupid about it yeah uh pman says uh not enough top end Talent
9:54
up front as far as their back end they had no shortage of big dmen but they don't clear the front of the net lindol
10:01
Carlo forart uh can't just be makoy doing that I mean makoy is pretty good in front of the net tying up sticks and
10:07
so forth um lindol is not good in front of the net at all yeah um doesn't
10:14
usually get back to the front of the net no he's usually still in the corner while while the other while his man is
10:20
in the front of the net um is not going to do it either no and and I mean it
10:26
really for those guys it's more about tying up sticks than you know they you can't just cross check guys down in
10:32
front of them anymore not just not allowed so it's blocking shots and it's tying up sticks um and kylo I thought I
10:40
thought overall last year I thought he had a pretty good year I did I thought in the playoffs he was really good he
10:46
was probably their best defense I thought he was their best defenseman in the playoffs yeah which can't happen but
10:51
he was right no um and and if if they're going to be a really good team though he
10:57
needs to be that he needs be you know a top four shut down guy but so does makoy
11:03
and he wasn't he had he had a rough year and lindol had a rough year he did um so
11:09
you know they need some guys to kind of rebound from the years they had and get
11:15
back to maybe you know I you can't say two years ago because two years ago everything went right for them like they
11:21
were just you know a fireball that you know nobody could really stop they just walk
11:28
through everyone until they got to the playoffs um so but but some of those guys some of
11:35
those defensemen and forwards need to take you know steps and and get back to
11:40
you know what they were or improve themselves to to be better than what they have been in the past right and and
11:47
pman I I agree with you like I'm not a linol guy I'd rather throw the money at gel and really go after him like because
11:54
that's the game changer you have to look ly Holm to me is another
11:59
duplicate of what you have in zaka and Coy like that's he's another guy like
12:06
them and I don't want someone else like them I want a playmaking center and if I
12:12
can't get one this year fine and sometimes you can't manufacture it yeah so I want gensel instead and put gensel
12:20
and kak on there scoring 40 50 goals I want a guy who can put the goddamn puck in the net is what I want I want get you
12:28
later fine yeah yeah give me a guy that can score Lind Holm is not only not
12:33
those guys he's not Co and zaka he's worse he is and he wants more money
12:39
right so if they sign this guy and Corp pasalo is I mean he's already on the
12:46
team so he you have four years of Corp pasalo and probably six of lolm yeah good luck and and it'll probably be like
12:52
11-ish million dollars or 10 million dollars and I just a [ __ ] complete
12:59
waste yes a complete waste of money and
13:04
a duplicate player like you said that's worse so you brought in a guy for more money that's worse he had 40 points last
13:11
year 40 he had 15 goals
13:16
yeah had less gos thanck yeah if you're gonna do that resign to Brusque right teach him how to
13:24
take faceoffs for [ __ ] sake he's a good 200 foot player I I I would I'd
13:29
sign at this point I'd sign to brus yeah I'd sign to brusk at this point I'd go
13:35
back to the table with him yeah I mean if if you're like well gel's out of our price range which he shouldn't be but
13:42
say he is he's out of our price range Stam Coast is going somewhere yeah Maro we can't get for
13:48
some reason we can't get William Carlson from Vegas all these can't get ryanard all
13:55
these guys are out of our price range we have some of the most cap baces the league but all those guys are out of our
14:00
price range can't afford anyone can't afford anyone uh so go back to De
14:06
Brusque you have to now right I totally I totally agree I
14:12
totally agree all right seven chirp sponsored by lops Brewing Lobster brewing and tasting room in downtown

and Chirp one we slept on it now second day reaction to alar after you almost
14:37
had cardiac arrest on your run yesterday my second day reaction is is
14:43
the same as my first day reaction which is I think it's a terrible [ __ ] trade
14:48
and all these people are saying wait and see wait and see there might be someone else look they made the trade so they
14:54
got to [ __ ] live with it whether there's something else down the line maybe there will be maybe somehow they
15:00
spin off Corpus Alo but from what fluto shinzawa was saying uh goalie Bob's
15:05
going to have to have the [ __ ] miracle of all miracles goalie you know Whisperer trying to fix this [ __ ]
15:13
clown who was one of the worst goalies in the league had a had a goals against over three has had as many season save
15:22
percentages that start with eight then start with nine start with eight that is
15:28
awful in today's day and age for aend awful and the first round pick great
15:34
love it cck fine I mean you don't need
15:40
another fourth line guy but fine seven and a half he plays seven and a half minutes a game I mean yeah fine like
15:47
it's fine yeah but you don't need another guy like that no you don't that's not what you need on your [ __ ]
15:54
team you have guys who can play fourth line that you could bring up from
15:59
Providence that will make you play Mark mlin there and do relatively the same thing he'll drop the gloves he'll hit
16:05
somebody he might put a goal in you could put that guy in there it's fine like that's fine but to me the the
16:13
boneheaded and the error is why in God's name are you taking on coro's contract
16:22
there is no [ __ ] reason to do that you have the player they want and you
16:29
have to eat the [ __ ] contract why why yeah they want your guy yeah they want
16:36
your guy why should you have to eat the contract if anything you should be giving them some [ __ ] clown that you
16:42
don't want right you should give them Loco or somebody sure for [ __ ] sake it
16:47
doesn't make any sense so not only do they have this now they don't have as
16:53
much cap space as they could have if it was just a pick and cost or costc or cast or whatever the [ __ ] his name is it
17:00
doesn't matter really no you would have gotten extra around four a little more
17:06
than four million to spend maybe that's [ __ ] gensel but now you can't afford
17:11
him so now you're gonna spend [ __ ] on Elias Lindholm who sucks who's been
17:18
going downhill for [ __ ] four or five years down down down down down it's
17:26
[ __ ] terrible it is I'll tell you in and look if it was celik and even a
17:33
second round pick then I would be more inclined to that sure than this Corpus
17:39
solo thing like you could sell me on look the it's not as much of a you know
17:44
a market for him now or or that you know you don't get as much for a goalie or blah blah blah you could you could sell
17:50
me on all that you could even do a total satary dump I think is even better than
17:56
this and just get the cap space to go spend it on gensel or go spend it on
18:02
like a big free agent who you know can produce and stop doing this we're gonna
18:08
add a fourth line guy and we're gonna add this guy and we're gonna we're GNA try to you know improve this backup
18:18
goenda busy can't play 20 to 25 games next year he can yeah of course of
18:23
course he can of course he can like you don't need to spend $3 million on a guy
18:29
or even a million dollars on a guy just he just signed for 775 like you could use that guy you know
18:37
if Swan gets hurt you're [ __ ] anyway who care I mean what's what's the difference you're not gonna win the cup anyway if Swan get hurt well yeah the
18:45
thing is is like if he does get hurt you're gonna put in a guy with a 890 and a over three goals you're making three
18:52
million bucks yeah you don't have guys you don't have guy enough guys on your team to score goals to withstand you
18:58
don't have enough guys on the team to score four goals a game if this guy's in net for you no and I'll tell you this
19:04
the people who say well get him in the Brewing System and and I 100% respect
19:09
Bob asza he probably can improve him some but the Bruins system thing is
19:15
[ __ ] because they gave up more High danger chances than Ottawa last year
19:21
yeah so so their defensive system wasn't as good last year their goal tending was
19:26
Elite and saved their ass time and time again certainly was so he
19:32
won't you know here's another thing swayan after all the playoffs was over
19:39
still with the most goal save above of above expected yes played two rounds
19:45
allar never made it through the two playoff series his his playoff numbers
19:51
are atrocious like yes he had a VZ a year and yes he was 88 and 26 or
19:57
whatever the hell it was yes great and he I'll tell you they got a great great value out of that deal for
20:06
for alark 100% they get three great years out of them for five million bucks fantastic but let's let's pump the
20:14
brakes a little he didn't have a great year last year uh and he and he's you
20:19
know he's probably not GNA get you a ton and if he doesn't get you a ton fine so
20:25
just cut bait and just take the money and you the money and you'd have
20:31
2627 million right now to really go out and get two game changers like two big
20:37
time game changers yeah right I mean your team looks a lot different if you
20:43
have a gensel or a Stam Coast or a maraso up front because now you don't
20:49
just have one guy that scores 40 or 50 you have two guys or three guys yeah
20:56
that's what I'm saying if you can't get the big if you can't get the center then you go
21:01
get the best available goal scorer and you figure the center out next year maybe the following year Patra really
21:07
develops and plays with gensel and [ __ ] posano that's what you're hoping for anyway you're hoping that ptra
21:15
develop you he have he has to or you're [ __ ] anyway maybe you have a good regular season again with zaka and Coyle
21:22
and they produce like they did last year 60 odd points a piece great that's fantastic maybe Potter develops and and
21:30
then you and then you add yeah and then you add in a gensel or a marcheso or a
21:36
Stam Coast or real threats yeah now you have depth yes if you just [ __ ] but
21:44
you're chasing the position you can't acquire right now yeah and that's that's
21:50
linol is solving 60% of it that's not enough that's not worth it not worth it
21:57
at all it's not worth it like you still you can't you need a number one Center
22:02
he's not he's not it he's not the guy so don't get another number two3 center
22:08
it's just it's just insane like don't like go get the best goal scorer and set
22:14
yourself up for the following year and that's what I that's what I don't love about it so here's my question to you
22:22
are the Bruins I I saw Joe Hagerty say this on online and he wrote this article
22:29
that I didn't read about how they the Bruins were better today than yesterday
22:35
would after the trade better after the trade is is do you believe that and how
22:40
would you ever believe that no I I don't know how you would believe that you
22:46
traded away and as much as we said alark didn't have a good year he had a he had
22:52
a I mean Lightyear is better than I mean by by VZ standards he doesn't have a
22:58
good year but he still had a good year I mean he's still probably a top 10 to 15
23:03
goalie in the league it's uncanny in his career how much he's been right around
23:09
915 save percentage every single year is good that's very good it's consistent as
23:14
hell consist H yeah and it's very good so he's very good the other guy had an
23:21
890 which was he bad very bad very very bad League I believe yes second worst uh
23:30
and 327 goals against which in this day and age again is outrageous right you're
23:37
significantly worse yeah you're significantly worse you're significantly
23:42
worse at goenda you have a first round pick that is not going to be on your team next year right and you got celik
23:49
who is might be a lesser version of John beer yeah so you have a guy like cck
23:56
that will fight um you know in his fast and whatever they they score about the
24:02
same amount but he might be in the he might be in the AHL he might be and and
24:09
then you know I mean was boquist better than castal celik towards the end of the
24:14
season well Bo boist to me is I mean I
24:19
get I mean he's at least at least similar yeah my point my point is I mean
24:25
he's not a fighter but my point is that improve Center last at the end of the
24:30
year last year beist yeah and and either one of those guys is probably better
24:36
than pastelic right so you're worse at goalie you're worse at fourth line Center and the number one pick that you
24:42
got is not gonna be on the team so how yeah in God's name is your team any better than it was I don't know how I
24:48
don't know how you could say it isn't say it is it's just it's just contrarian
24:54
or whatever it is it's just insane I don't I don't know how you could say that again I would just I would have
24:59
just done a total salary dump and it would have been made more sense to me as
25:04
a fan because here's the plan we're going big time but now it's like they
25:11
they it's like they try to hamstring themselves salary cap wise it's just it's
25:17
incredible maybe they should have bought cap friendly yeah well SHP two Jake
25:23
debrusk two Toronto rumors how about this yeah rumors that Jake debrus could
25:28
end up with the Toronto Maple Leafs how does that make you feel uh it makes me
25:34
uh makes me have a little bit of a pit in the bottom of my stomach because I know if he goes there he is going to
25:39
light us up light us up yeah he's gonna play with Matthews consistently he will
25:46
light us up now will he have a great overall year I don't know he'll probably be
25:53
streaky I'll tell you what when he plays the Bruins he's going to be very very good folks
25:58
he's gonna be very very good against the Bruins and if and if uh he plays the way
26:04
he played for the Bruins against the Leafs in the playoffs for the Leafs next year you lose the series and Toronto
26:10
moves on he's gonna pull a Phil Phil kessle with the on your ass he sure is
26:17
he is so good good luck get get ready for that one get used to that get used to that Jake Rus is gonna shove it up
26:23
your ass if he is with the maple leafes here here's the thing let's say you dump I'm going back to it again until
26:30
until until this [ __ ] shows over if if
26:36
if if they dump alar for a total salary dump at the five mil they can easily
26:43
resign debrusk and still have tons of money to get San in there and another
26:48
guy in there and at least you know with de Brusque yeah he's streaky but he's become a really good two-way forward you
26:55
know he does what the team he's in the system he does what the team you know can wants
27:02
him to do and all that stuff like he's at least consistent in that you know
27:07
what you're going to get from him now so and that's great like I I would rather
27:13
that yeah then let him go now you're down another forward yeah another guy
27:20
goals yeah yeah let me ask you this if uh what do you think debrus is looking
27:25
for from the Bruins and what do you think the offering I think I think he's probably
27:31
looking six times six if I'm Jake and I'm 27 that's kind of I'm trying to get to
27:37
32 to 33 years old I think with this contract so I'm thinking six times cont
27:43
contract in your Prime yeah you C this is your big one so I I think it's six times six yeah and I think the Bruins
27:50
are probably six time four or something like that because he made he made two
27:57
times eight was his last right so he made four mil each of the last two years two two you're right he made four yeah
28:03
each of the last two so what do you think the bru you think the Bruins are offering like four and a half you think it's like you think it's like four times
28:11
four times four and four times yeah like you think it's like 16 no I think they I
28:17
think they probably would give him five to five and a quarter a year I think
28:23
they probably would so if that's the case like they should figure this out I think it's probably term more than value
28:31
you think so I think I think I think that they probably don't want to invest six years in them and he wants
28:37
six that's what I that's what I would believe like would you really would you really split nut hairs over a million
28:45
dollars a year no that's what I mean I feel like I feel like they should be able to work the damn thing out right
28:50
like I really do I feel like they should be able to work it out like if if it's between five and six million or you know
28:58
four years and six years and and four and 4.75 to you know six and like you
29:04
should be able to work that out that's what I'm saying is that if you if you acquired salary cap room from alark then
29:12
you could have played a little bit nicer in the sandbox with the Brusque and and
29:18
just kept him like yeah I I mean I don't think right now I I don't really I don't
29:24
really love what the Bruins are doing I don't know what they're doing and I that that's I've thought about this all
29:30
fraking day long like what are they doing like you don't get a fourth line
29:36
what are you get in a fourth you've got all You' got countar and Farinacci and
29:41
mlin and all these guys down there just play them they have a whole and we've
29:48
said this before every trade deadline the most available thing at the trade
29:54
deadline is fourth line depth yeah cheap every time I mean they have a whole
30:01
[ __ ] farm system of fourth line guys I they do they
30:07
do in the third [ __ ] round every year fcking third four lers like you have
30:13
plenty of those guys why are you getting more of them you have fourth line guys
30:18
coming out of your [ __ ] and you can get one at the deadline and you get a
30:24
maroon you can get a halfway you can get a get a you know there the list goes
30:32
pedigree like guys with pedigree like not just guys guys who you can get guys stanle cup experience guys that have won
30:39
Stanley Cups at the deadline 100% for third and fourth round picks yeah so
30:46
posman uh says agreed horrible trade got worse than that from minimum cap relief
30:51
this season but an albatross of a contract for four years one of the worst goalies in the league would have told
30:57
Ottawa [ __ ] off I mean that's all true I'm with you 100% I would have told him to take a hike uh I I I I have no idea
31:06
why we took that contract on the first round pick I love um but it should have been all Mark for it first and saved the
31:12
five million in my eyes yeah joh Johnny Gan cotti where do you think he's from he's from Medford
31:19
Rivier Johnny J cotti from he's from a good Italian family yeah he is from a
31:24
good Italian family oh sure he knows where to get the chicken Prim I does need some Dam it Dom's Dom's in
31:32
Malden I haven't been there but yeah you go uh he says rather go with busy on another cheap option is back or another
31:39
cheap option is backup still got to pay someone to replace de brasque how are they improving once they sign Swan they
31:47
can go all in on a guy uh and they better hit on it yeah well right yeah I
31:52
think that's all true I mean this is not hard like I you know the more people talk about it the more they come up with
31:58
these different scenarios to make it they they want to feel like they're the smartest guy in the room and they they figured it out you here's what to figure
32:06
out it was [ __ ] stupid yeah that's what that's what that's it yeah that's it and now now you have to do these
32:14
salary cap gymnastics right just to get the guy off your roster that you shouldn't have taken in the [ __ ]
32:20
first place right so you gonna buy them out and get eight years of million maybe we can trade him for a second right well
32:28
great oh great so another million that you can't spend or you buy them out for eight years worth of nonsense you buy
32:35
them out or you bury him in the miners and and there's more [ __ ] C like we're just I think after this year we're
32:41
finally gonna get rid of the [ __ ] Mike Riley dead money let's add some more let's let's have Jonas capalo money
32:47
on the cap let's just keep money down the we'll just we'll just prefer it all
32:53
like we're paying [ __ ] you know what is it uh Joey no uh Bobby Bia Bobby B
33:01
yeah Bobby bid Bobby they were hoping he would die before that thing end yeah I don't know
33:09
Jes uh chirp three does Mark castc spell Doom for some of these fourth liners
33:16
yeah he does c he does he blocks guys yeah sure thing yeah what the guys Ian I
33:24
mean I don't know how many he takes he's out there for seven minutes a night minutes a night that's what like
33:29
probably nine or 10 shifts so he's gonna take maybe maybe four faceoffs a game
33:35
you know go he'll go [ __ ] two and two or three and one everybody will turn cartwheels right and then he'll fight
33:41
Tom Wilson and everybody will be happy about it yeah ACX says he's a he's a s
33:47
fan thanks for checking in Bruin's taking uh corpy makes absolutely no
33:52
sense to me just an awful goalie that flails around and hopes to hit him there
33:58
you go Bobby sza do with that you think that's what we have to look forward to
34:05
that's excellent analysis uh from senator's uh little Scouting Report yeah little scort yeah
34:13
oh yeah I love it says he won't cry if uh if cic blocks
34:20
Loco because that would mean no moo and and Shaz diet and myself uh have had
34:28
enough of that yeah I mean here's another thing you've got some guys coming up on RFA contracts even this
34:33
either this year or next year you have to figure out who You're Gonna Roll with going forward then you have these again
34:40
these these minor Leaguers in Farinacci and K and mlin and and these gu I mean I
34:46
mean are you are they just GNA be AHL players then fine but getting castc just
34:52
makes no no sense at all and it smells to me like he was like you boy you know
34:59
I'm really trying to get this deal done I can't and it was like take the biggest [ __ ] [ __ ] they have you know
35:06
that just reeks to me of let's take another big physical and here's the other thing and I've said this before
35:12
I'll say it again you can't you don't change you don't become more physical by
35:18
getting one Hammerhead on the fourth line like that's not changing the
35:23
culture of the team if you're getting pushed around and you're not heavy enough and physical enough then getting
35:29
one guy who plays eight minutes and fights a guy every once in a while is
35:34
not the answer it's your your culture the profile like we talked about earlier
35:41
of the guy you get does not exude we're gonna go be physical and heavy and and
35:48
and do that like it's not one guy who changes that you don't do it with one guy no you don't it's it's whether or
35:56
not your skill players can stand up to the physicality is what it really comes
36:01
down to sorry John when it's not John uh we're a little fired up my bad I I
36:08
cannot help myself I wish I could John but I am a swearer I always have been uh
36:14
and unfortunately I don't think that's going to change anytime soon uh I will
36:19
try monitor it we will we promise I will try my best but I can't promise anything
36:24
yeah at all and I'll tell you what I can't promise either is that Mar cast will score any goals or play more than
36:30
seven or eight minutes a game and that's uh you know that's the the gist of it chirp for Bruins back in the first round
36:38
what's their plan with this first rounder are they going to try to chase the center get a guy um or I mean I've
36:46
said it before I think I think they could go defense because their defensive prospects are a little thin now they are
36:53
thin on defense M they could chase the center to me though you look at who is the best
37:01
player available and and as long as it's not a goalie you take them I don't care
37:07
what position you plays right yeah and I do I I I honestly don't care they Gua
37:12
they need good players it doesn't matter to me if it's a Winger if it's a center
37:17
if it's a if it's a defenseman left or right doesn't matter take the best player available be they should be more
37:26
taking best player available for the foreseeable future for a long long long
37:33
long time they have to build that PRP pool the best guy available and figure it out figure it out down the line um
37:40
you know if you all of a sudden you have five terrific leftwing prospects well
37:45
now you got some you know guys you can make trades with um you know yeah so
37:51
yeah best player available please I I do too and they don't typically do that
37:57
they typically go either a little outside the box or way outside the box yeah with a guy and I smell this
38:04
happening again like I smell someone who is in the second round that they're going to take because one the draft is a
38:12
little thinner as you go so when it gets around that time if there's a lot of um
38:18
disagreement on who's what I mean I've seen guys who are rated 20 and 68 like
38:24
I've seen guys all over the map so it just to me it's lining up for the Bruins
38:30
to take someone off the board yeah uh and and that doesn't that doesn't help
38:37
my problem my problem with it is they're probably gonna lean more to the 68 rather than the 20 right get the value
38:44
whatever that is yeah yeah don't don't take the guy that's ranked 68th that you think is better than that take the guy
38:51
you think should have been ranked 20 and maybe slipped a little right and my my problem is is that
38:57
they only have a first and a fourth so if they really like if their favorite guy is 50 they're taking
39:05
him they are because they can't get them they can't get them yeah they can't get them so I it's it's lining up trade back
39:12
is that allowed do they do that in the NHL I don't know I don't know they do it in the NFL yeah they do it in other in
39:18
other leagues but they should they I guess I don't know if they don't see why
39:24
I mean I don't know if it used to be allowed I don't trade down you can okay
39:29
yeah the Blackhawks and the Islanders actually did it already for this year's draft uh one of the teams moved up and
39:36
gave a uh couple second round picks in the process okay so if you like a guy like the kid from Sudbury Mass Teddy
39:43
ster who's going to BC or bu one of them uh looks to be a
39:50
really good he played a Belmont Hill looks to be a really you know good player with some upside but he's you
39:56
know he's in the 60-ish range 50 60 you know so if you like a guy like that
40:02
trade down yeah give up first for you know a couple of seconds or a second
40:08
third second next year and a second this year whatever and then go get that guy right you know and I I agree I mean
40:14
don't just take the guy because I mean they kind of did it with lowai lowai was kind of wasn't he rated 1110th or
40:21
something at the time and they took him at 58 I mean it's worked out but that was one that was
40:27
that was a stab in the dark that that was people were shuffling papers when they picked him oh yeah back then so
40:34
it's happened more often than not Zack Cici of course you know I had to mention him but um I don't know I mean I like I
40:43
love the kid um at gal who replaced ptra
40:49
jet luchenko he's 17 years old he's smaller he's like potra size but he's 17 has
40:57
great hockey IQ hands playmaking ability like sees the play before it's there had
41:03
74 points last year for gel in his first season with them like he is pretty good
41:11
and he's been climbing the charts from like you know High second round low
41:16
first round like he's starting and he may not be there at the can he point
41:21
where he may not be there yeah he can skate skater like can can really play but just 17 so he's raw and he's you
41:28
know but this in this draft where it's kind of thin you know you take a guy
41:34
like that sure because you know what can you what do you really have to lose take a guy with with tremendous upside um but
41:41
there's a lot of talk about him lately and I think he might be gone at this point so be gone by 25 yeah and then
41:49
there's Cole Bowden uh he's a center that people have projected Ottawa to
41:55
take it this pick at 25 he's a little more raw though he's a 200 foot guy so
42:00
he projects more like bottom sixish so kind of like a Beacher kind of profile
42:05
62 210 you know that kind of thing um he's
42:10
a guy that you know might be there as a center I think they're gonna take a center right here's here's what I want
42:17
them to stop doing I want them to stop taking the guys who are already 200 foot
42:23
players right I want them to stop taking the guy a 200 foot game look at
42:29
the guys who are defensively responsible at 18 years old I want them to take
42:35
right that are skilled and have great vision and can pass and can put the puck
42:40
in the net and can State and have some kind of elite ability that's what I want
42:46
them to take I don't want them to take a guy who's responsible defensively in back checks now that's not what I want
42:53
in the draft you don't draft a back Checker in the first of
42:58
the [ __ ] sake John even when even when you say it out louds I'm sorry but you
43:04
just don't yeah even when you say it out loud it's it's hard to Fathom um but
43:11
yeah I'd rather take lysel than a two 200 foot player like take LEL who has
43:17
the not everybody can score goals you've said this they don't grow on trees wasn't a 200 foot player when you
43:22
drafted him no he wasn't in fact he was not very good no but he's been adequate
43:28
enough like he's learned it de has learned it C learned it like there have
43:34
been guys who that wasn't the profile it was offense offense offense if your culture is good as is as good as you
43:40
think it is they can learn that by being here right except if you're Ryan Spooner
43:46
you can learn that from being here right right I mean some people just don't want
43:51
to commit Ry Ryan Donado some people just don't want to accept the coaching that's just the way it is and those guys
43:58
didn't um but yeah you can be taught in a system to play defense like just like
44:04
in basketball I have my basketball team like I can get any slob off the off the at Subway and teach him how to and he
44:11
can play defense all day long but he can't put the ball in the basket and we lose right like that's just the way it
44:16
goes like it's you can teach anybody the defensive side it's the offensive side that really brings the skill yeah and
44:23
only few few of those guys have those yeah I mean isn't that what they say
44:29
about defense is that defense is all effort that's all all effort give me five plumbers I'll play defense all
44:36
effort not nothing against plumbers that's all it takes to play defense is effort you just have to try really hard
44:43
for a bit right just try just try try it you like it see if you like it yeah try
44:49
it that's all defenses diet chz diet is our new prospects guy Merrick vaker is
44:55
another guy we'll take a look um I haven't heard his name but we'll take a look I mean they're going to take
45:01
a center I would think 100% um unless they do you think there's any way they
45:08
trade it in another deal for in another bigger picture deal maybe I mean I wouldn't be
45:15
opposed to that if if that's is your Joe hay they they're they're better than
45:22
they uh than they were yesterday if they if they trade that first and and Corp
45:28
pasalo and loo to Anaheim for zis
45:33
they're better than they were yesterday I I hear you yeah I mean that's that's a good one yeah if they trade him for in a
45:39
package for like a William Carlson or someone who's legitimately proven to play offense then yes then yeah I'm I'm
45:46
I I'm really intrigued by the Carlson thing after we started talking about it as a as a staff last week like we were
45:53
you know his name started to come into the picture and I'm like it makes sense Vegas needs to some payroll and change
46:00
some things and if they get looking to get rid of them if you could do like I mean could you do geeky and Loco in a
46:06
pick for K they do that I mean I I don't know if they're trying to dump salary I
46:12
don't know yeah I'll do it yeah they are trying to get out of uh salary um and uh
46:21
Shaz said uh Baka as left wing had what does it say 82 points 82 point 68 games
46:27
in the OHL so typically if you're scoring at that rate in the OHL you have you're a prospect you're a good Prospect
46:34
and a chance to to be something I mean we saw what ptra did um you know with 95
46:40
assists in the OHL so if you score in those leagues OHL Q yeah you know if you
46:47
have big numbers typically you have at least some upside to get there so yeah
46:53
I'll take I'll take a look at him and and we'll you know there's some out there and if you follow us at Bruins
46:59
Benders on X we'll be breaking down all sorts of draft pick prospects like till until you get nauseous yeah you w want
47:06
to hear from us really you don't want to do that anymore I'll tell you this though I look through the the last 25
47:12
years of number 25 picks okay David posano the best of the bunch obviously
47:20
yeah Jordan Karan not they were the two Bruins ones okay there were some other
47:25
ones Jordan schaltz uh Ryan polling I mean there was some other guys but I'll tell you what there was only one guy who
47:33
never played a game in the NHL so all of them played a game in the NHL except for the 2018 pick which was by St Louis guy
47:42
by name of Bach BK didn't play in the league and then of course the last three
47:47
have not yet but it was the last three years so other than that everybody played at least the game Andrew calano
47:54
who just retired after playing a million games was a 25th pick in the draft so what I'm saying is the guy's
48:02
going to make the league now will he pay 10 games will he play 1110 games well I
48:08
mean let's let's let's not our chickens here because but he's but the odds are
48:14
90% of them do yeah sure so I mean Sian gotten a game in the in the league right
48:21
yeah Le go so I mean I guess I guess Jacob vaka Carson got in a game
48:29
right those eight guys that they 2015 they all it takes is is you know one guy
48:36
getting hurt and Sweeney calling him up and throwing him in game Oscar
48:42
Ste and there you go yeah you know prophecy is
48:49
fulfilled you know I mean Seth Griffith's played all sorts of NHL games yeah I mean hey it's coming we're
48:57
we're going to get a good one here yeah uh pick five chir five is uh the Bruins
49:03
have a lot of centers uh quantity over quality are
49:08
they keeping them all I mean I still think it's out I I
49:13
still think it's it's it's a it's a possibility that someone like a geeky
49:18
geeki is the guy I keep going back to they might move him I mean I wouldn't that would be a
49:26
guy that other teams I think would want they they could take a shot at him he's two million bucks you know yeah two
49:31
million bucks is short money he's coming off a career year y he's a pretty good big guy he's he's physical he has a
49:39
really good shot and he's got pretty good hands yeah RFA at the end of the next year yeah I mean still relatively
49:45
young so that that's a guy maybe with some upside that another team might look at and say yeah we could take a shot on
49:51
him if we're looking to clear some money and bring in another guy who's you know pretty good that might be a guy off the
49:57
Bruins roster that other teams would be interested in yeah I mean you could I mean geeky in the first I mean what does
50:05
that get you I don't know who knows if a guy again again a team has to be trying
50:10
to salary dump a guy right like like if they're really if like a William Carlson
50:15
is trying to be salary dumped that might work you know so um but I'd be open to
50:21
it to be that creative I'd be open to it um and I think there's so many centers
50:27
and our producer Conor said made a good point like they're just going to go out and play a bunch of centers and have
50:32
centers on the ice because they're defensively responsible typically because they've played center yeah so
50:39
and that leads back to my defensive thing yeah and it'll be like oh you know he's a left shot so he can take the draw
50:46
in the left-and circle and this guy's a right shot so he can take the draw in the right hand Circle and it's like they'll get into all that [ __ ] that
50:53
is kind of unnecessary it's like do we really need two centers on the ice in case the draw is on the left side or the
50:59
right side probably not it's something that team Canada has typically done in
51:05
competitive tournaments over the year so it's it's pretty easy to think that Don
51:10
Sweeney will keep in that Trend uh but for the commenter here with vaner I reached into the uh the depths of Hell
51:18
on the inside the rink website and here you go okay okay nice job Connor yeah I
51:24
tell you nobody's better than Connor green uh Brandford Bulldogs of the ol
51:30
3646 82 uh in 68 games played 6 foot 165 so
51:37
slight but he at six foot he could be 185 I guess at some point sure left wing
51:42
left shot um 47th ranking in the prospect countdown for inside the rink
51:49
so that's a guy who fits the profile of let's reach for him reach for the sky
51:55
baby and take vaner you know I'll tell you what I'll tell you what we're going to do the we're the we're the Bruins
52:01

we're gonna Lobby for him we're gonna send we're gonna we're gonna send emails to Don Sweeney hey this vaner guy is
53:20
looking pretty good yeah Di's gonna be and Dom swe's email box
53:27
saying Don what's in it for me Baner as your man uh chirp six Ty Anderson makes
53:34
the point that it always seems like Don Sweeney doesn't get bailed out by other GMS has to give an extra pick or
53:40
retention some retain some money something along the lines in a trade do you agree with that I I when I thought
53:48
about it I didn't I think I I kind I
53:53
kind of do because I I do I do feel like other teams like you watch guy like
54:00
teams that like are up against the cap and you know they don't they don't get held over a barrel when they're trying
54:06
to unload guys it doesn't seem like to me no uh and then when Sweeny's trying
54:11
to you know trade a guy it's always like oh we had to throw in a sweetener of some kind or we had to eat money or
54:18
there was retention or we had to give a first round pick where like you know other teams it doesn't seem like they
54:24
have to do that now maybe it's just Sweeny being Sweeny and he's like he's
54:30
like the nice guy so he's like ah we'll throw in a first and then they're like okay yeah where other GMS are like no
54:37
we're not gonna give you a first we're just we we'll eat the money if we have to right I don't think Sween is a very
54:42
good poker player I think I think he stinks at cards I mean I don't I don't think so but then I I look at the Run of
54:49
about six or seven trades really in a row where he was really nailing him you know and that's what I keep going back
54:55
to now the Taylor Hall thing's an outlier because he yeah sort of demanded that he did and that fell in Sweeny's
55:02
lap so fine but Cole you know there's other ones that are just really good
55:09
even even like the minor ones like Johansson like there's a lot of really good ones in there in a row where you're
55:15
like wow this is that was a pretty good run for him uh trade-wise so you know I
55:23
think he did flee some people too yeah I don't know maybe that's maybe that's
55:28
part of the problem is maybe because he's fleeced guys in the past when he's
55:34
come when it comes around to you know oh we're looking to you know we gotta dump this guy because we we can't you know
55:41
can't get under the cap or we you know can't eat this money or whatever the other teams are like look you you held
55:47
me over a barrel you beat me on another trade you know now's time to pay up you
55:53
got to pay the piper now so um you know it could be something like that where you know some teams other GMS maybe are
55:59
getting a little bit of payback on Sweeney um for for him winning some of these other trades in the
56:05
past I I hope mlss says that I think Sweeney is GNA buy out JK in weaponize
56:12
the extra 2.4 mil to get some forward help he doesn't care about the long-term ramification of an 8-year bio because he
56:18
won't be there then well that's that's actually an excellent point uh but also
56:24
the cap it r to go up substantially so those would be and here's a buyout here
56:31
if you're on screen um very very minimal to begin with and then it really starts
56:37
to ramp up afterwards for the next six years or so but you know a million point
56:44
a 1.3 or 1.5 four five six years from now is much different than now so you know there's
56:52
that fluto shinzawa from the Boston Globe also did report today that they don't plan Bruins do not plan to buy
57:01
out and they are going to keep him and make him better they're gonna improve
57:07
him Pluto's from the athletic now by the way oh right sorry yeah the athletic
57:12
yeah um still a good follow follow yeah he is my apologies FLW but yeah but but but
57:19
corpy uh um will not be bought out they they believe in Bobby asza and I do too I
57:26
mean what's not to believe in absolutely um so maybe they do get 20 25 decent games with him it's happened in the past
57:32
with hak and some of the other guys they've had where they had kind of spotty careers and then had a really
57:39
they just settled into a really good backup role Could Happen cor I tell you what their best case scenario um based
57:47
off on off what where they are now with this whole thing and with the trade and and having Calo in the fold is that ESS
57:55
essenza does make him better uh and then they're able to deal him maybe next year after he has a good
58:01
season as a backup goalie he plays you know 2530 games has a really good year
58:06
and then they can move on from him another team is looking for a goalie three million for you know two years not
58:13
a big contract not a lot of term there so you know maybe you maybe you're able
58:18
to flip them at that point and get something back in return um you know
58:24
yeah wouldn't have it I still would have I still would have wanted the the five million to spend this year uh in order
58:30
to improve your offense right but you know that's that's the best you can hope
58:35
for I think down the line is that that's what ends up happening here and I and it might be that that's part of the plan
58:41
like that's the foresight in this is that hey I we've got a goalie people are dying for goalies $3 million for a
58:48
goalie isn't a lot no if he is a main focus of a trade like it's not a lot at
58:53
all so yeah if he has a decent year and you really Revitalize his career and you
58:59
and you roll and you send him for a second round pick or third well I don't know third round whatever and then yeah
59:06
then maybe you you get back a second rounder again later or something for him and great and that's that'd be great but
59:13
like you said that's a kind still kind of a long shot that's that's take that's playing some long game with that thing I
59:21
don't know it's just a it could happen but I don't think that's why you make the deal I don't think that's why you take the contract um Robert Giuliano
59:29
says I really wanted to see busy as a backup to San next year and then mlss says are they going to trade busy they
59:35
very well could they're out of options both dpet and busy so they have to pass through waivers so and they're both on
59:43
one-year deals it's it's almost like they've given them one more year to kind of see their worth and maybe they use
59:50
them again as part of deals to send them out or or so forth but bus these turns
59:56
27 in like a week or tomorrow or something it's close so he he turns 27
1:00:02
years old happy birthday today is his birthday happy birthday Brandon busy 27 so he's not
1:00:08
23 so I don't I don't know what's happening with busy and and if you look at the stats for him last year not as
1:00:14
good a year as the year before in fact dpet played better than him for some of that year last year uh and dpat has been
1:00:22
on the rise and that's a that's a sneaky little trade for stanika you know where they got deetra who's
1:00:28
really improving year by year but again these guys are goalies are tough they're alof sometimes they they're
1:00:36
unpredictable um who knows what these guys will bring but I think and you have fedback at Providence College is gonna
1:00:43
probably G to do one more year there and then sign with you so um I don't know I
1:00:49
don't know what they're going to do with busy but if he goes through waivers someone's going to take him I would think absolutely yeah I mean you run the
1:00:57
risk of losing him for sure um but yeah I don't I don't know so that's that's
1:01:03
that trip seven do you like the idea of having the K Smite winner be from the
1:01:08
losing team I think it's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life I I just think it sets you up look
1:01:15
yeah Conor McDavid had a historic playoff wait I get it but it just sets you up for some awkward [ __ ] thing
1:01:22
that happened you know what I mean like give it to the best player on the best team he didn't even come out of the
1:01:29
locker room and I don't I don't blame him no I don't blame him just lost freaking thing and you had a CH I mean
1:01:35
it was such an emotional roller coaster and you lost and he needs to win for his legacy like if anybody needed to win
1:01:43
that series it was him I would argue that to the cows come home that he
1:01:48
needed to win it more than anyone isn't it supposed to be most valuable player
1:01:53
yes yes most valuable Val player if your team lost you lost it how does that make
1:02:01
any sense you're the most valuable guy but your team lost so you would have
1:02:06
still lost if he wasn't on your team so how does that make him the most valuable
1:02:12
right would have lost either way right yeah MCD I mean McDavid was you know he
1:02:19
was yeah he had phenomenal he had a phenomenal yeah playoff he did
1:02:26
but as sh said zero points in game six and seven yeah I mean that's not the most Val valuable yeah that's not the
1:02:32
most valuable you lost if you lose you should not be the most valuable player
1:02:39
of the playoffs tot I just it's it's a
1:02:44
ridiculously I mean NHL thing to do first of all it really is I mean it
1:02:49
really when they have a chance to Fumble something they fumble it like they
1:02:54
fumble it for for a touchdown it's a it's a fumble sixi it is fumble rusi it is it is it is
1:03:03
it is what was that the Giants and the Herm Edwards that fumble thing kneeling
1:03:08
down it's a kneeling fumble you know to run out the clock it's terrible it is the butt fumble they're the butt fum but
1:03:15
fumble yes the butt fumbles they're running into their own ass and fumbling the ball and you're right Bruins 1970
1:03:21
dry cdle was non-existent he had no goals in the finals I mean that was a real let down in dry cidal I mean that's that's that's
1:03:28
one of those things that that's why you lose when a guy like dry does uh that
1:03:34
apparently dry Sidle had a bro a cracker a broken rib Yeah by hit uh in round two
1:03:40
by Tyler Meers yeah I mean there's there's a million of those types of stories where guys are severely injured
1:03:47
and you know got to persevere I guess Rob Spectre says who on the Panthers was more valuable to their team than McDavid
1:03:54
I mean you could say but Evan Rodriguez I would pick to be honest yeah I mean Rodriguez you just want to say the
1:04:01
finals but I mean if you want to go through oh the whole thing know barov
1:04:06
had had a say barov you could say Bovi either one of those guys yeah just pick
1:04:11
somebody like just don't put people in team yeah just it's it's I mean I just I
1:04:18
mean I get what you're saying McDavid had a great playoff like and other guys you know didn't really stand out more
1:04:24
than him I get it but I just don't think you should do it I just think you should give it to the to the MVP of the of the
1:04:31

1:05:39
always liked them is Florida Panthers head coach Paul Maurice gonna love you
1:05:45
they're gonna be loving you from down until D even though we don't like the Florida Panthers one iota we've always
1:05:51
loved Paul Maurice the best memes the best gifts the best videos he's humorous he is uh
1:05:59
he supports his team 100% he's a terrific coach to play for obviously he
1:06:05
had great words to say afterwards really heartfelt words to say we've always
1:06:10
liked Paul and we're happy that it wasn't if this I'll tell you what we
1:06:15
talked about I just talked about how McDavid needed to win more than anyone Paul Maurice was number two because if
1:06:20
he lost this and has never won a cup this one stays with you oh yeah 100%
1:06:27
this one would have been disastrous yeah 100% And we do love Paul Maurice and he's a quote machine and he's a great
1:06:33
interview and uh you know he's humorous and and uh you know he makes covering the league fun so uh good for him uh not
1:06:41
necessarily for the Florida Panthers but but good for Maurice yeah Maurice uh deserves it I mean him personally he
1:06:49
deserves it and uh it was good that he was able to win he had really good words to say about winter Peg Jacks one of
1:06:54
them to win next and you know about his dad and and it was really cool so we're
1:07:00
happy for Paul Ru and I'll tell you what I hope we can get him on we're g we're gonna try to get him on because i' love
1:07:07
watch on yeah so uh Paul if you're
1:07:14
listening uh and the vendor is our good buddy the general manager of the Boston
1:07:21
Bruins Don Sweeney Bender yeah just just just a portrait I neither one of us
1:07:29
can really wrap our head arounds the F uh the reason why he took on that
1:07:34
contract the corpolo contract doesn't make any sense uh you can you can
1:07:39
explain it to me 40 different ways you can say that they have chess moves down the line lined up um to to uh to make it
1:07:49
worthwhile but in the grand scheme of things you had the player that Ottawa
1:07:57
wanted and you had to still eat the contract which doesn't make any sense so
1:08:04
they got the best player in the deal and they got rid of a contract they've been dying to get rid of forever since they
1:08:11
signed it uh and you end up with a first round pick which is great um but not much else
1:08:19
so I just uh I just don't understand it I don't understand why he would make that move and um you
1:08:28
know the the goalie Market seemed to maybe pass him by like other goalies
1:08:34
were getting traded he was too fixated on trying to make a deal work with
1:08:39
Ottawa that he didn't pivot uh when he could have and then he was stuck holding
1:08:45
the bag and um you know ended up having to eat a contract that he he probably
1:08:51
you know didn't want to take so um he's a bender I I don't I don't get it I don't I I never will um so it's just uh
1:09:01
it's unbelievable to me if you think about it he's never really traded a real core guy like a high value core guy that
1:09:09
I can think of off the team and I think he has a hard time putting his value the
1:09:15
difference between his value and the other team's value on that particular guy and I think this is a classic
1:09:22
example of that like he thinks he should get this for this guy and they think H I don't know kind of
1:09:29
get this and then he put backs himself in the corner where he just kind of has to take what he gets at the end instead
1:09:34
of just saying you know what well okay luch and Hamilton was right out of the gate yeah but that was a total that was
1:09:41
kind of a rebuild I mean that was he's he's putting his stamp on the team now
1:09:46
Lich and Hamilton both pretty good deals he just screwed up all the picks and everything I mean didn't get much out of
1:09:53
it at the end of the day but he did get value I guess for those guys but I think
1:09:59
that he has a hard time with the value and and really coughing up players like debrus has been going up and down with
1:10:06
this for years like uh you're gonna trade the guy you're not gonna trade the guy and the guy asked to pray like he
1:10:12
almost demanded it like and they just couldn't do it he just couldn't do it and uh I just don't I don't love I don't
1:10:19
love the trade I don't care what you say I just don't love it and uh I hope it I hope they get a good first from pick
1:10:26
whatever uh mlss says does hinan get resigned and if so what's the aab I
1:10:32
think it's going to be I'm G to take a stab at two years it's gonna be two years trust me two years times I'll go
1:10:40
two two two25 two and a
1:10:47
quarter yeah John block your ears yeah yeah I know it John block your ears that
1:10:53
I mean if they sign him for that [ __ ] contract yeah I mean it's just again how
1:10:59
many fourth line guys do we have on the team already and do we need I mean I
1:11:04
understand that hinan had a really good year but on a on a playoff team um is he
1:11:10
a top six guy no he's not you know if if if he's on
1:11:17
Florida where is Danton hinen playing can you can you tell me where he's playing I he's not because because
1:11:25
and why they didn't sign him that's why nobody signed him that's why you had him in an atto sitting on his couch because
1:11:32
you didn't have a roster spot for for a while yes it made out it was a terrific signing and it and it worked out even
1:11:38
more than you thought it would trust me but that doesn't mean you get all
1:11:44
committed and all romantic and give him more than he deserves Warrior Ice Arena eating a bag of sunship until October
1:11:51
one year one million one year one and a half if you want to throw him a bone for having a good year I I would go up to
1:11:58
one and a half for him one and a half yeah after that see you see you later
1:12:04
congratulations I hope somebody pays you a lot of money but it's not gonna be us
1:12:09
no and that doesn't mean he doesn't deserve it he certainly deserves it he performed this year he should get paid
1:12:16
by someone yes he should should not be the Bruins right Bruins have other needs
1:12:23
to address that are more important than another
1:12:29
bottom six guy you're right mlss he is this guy wants to see Tyler go crazy
1:12:35
yeah he he is the rightwing on the team he is because they don't have anybody else right now it's not because he
1:12:43
really should be it's because they don't have any enough Talent we posted it on X
1:12:49
the forward group right now and it's scary bad it's really scary bad it is
1:12:54
under contract scary bad yeah and that takes potra out of it because he's on IR technically
1:13:01
right now but even with potra it's not great it's not great at all um on behalf
1:13:09
of all the s fans we want to thank Sweeny for giving us all Mark celik is a
1:13:14
fourth round Fringe Center you also received your own pick back late first
1:13:19
rounder and you've got yourself an expensive backup goalie Corpi will be good for you Bruins fans though here in
1:13:25
Ottawa we can't play defense so the goalies get left hung out to dry so don't let the stats explain what type of
1:13:32
goalie corpy is he will stop the puck for you guys nicely and his roll as a backup s fans promise to take care of
1:13:39
all Mark for you guys that comes from Drew 86613 on
1:13:45
X well Drew appreciate it on YouTube YouTube YouTube hi Drew thanks so much
1:13:52
buddy uh and hey you take Carol lenus who had really ni who had a really nice
1:13:57
goodbye on X that we posted he did uh heed his teammates and their milestones
1:14:04
and how they were some of the greatest parts of the year for him and stay here with Boston and it was great and El Mark
1:14:10
and in Swan and the whole goalie hug thing and and I know that people think it's overblown and I even think it is to
1:14:16
an extent but it's just this it's it's what it signifies is that the team right um
1:14:24
really like loves each other and and hangs in for each other and it's a really good culture in Boston and it is
1:14:29
and we don't give it enough credit because it is a good culture and it has to do with Chara and berson and marshan
1:14:36
and and trickles down to guys over the years uh it started in ' 06 with Chara
1:14:43
and it is a good thing it's something that the Bruins organization should be commended for probably more than they
1:14:48
are but hey it's about wins and losses dude yeah and I mean and I think honestly as a team with maybe not as
1:14:55
much talent as some of the other teams out there I think their culture might be one of the reasons that they maybe play
1:15:02
Above their level a little bit and and do um you know a little bit better than teams expect I mean people last year
1:15:09
going into the season the Bruins might not be a playoff team right they might yeah right right now they AR so so I
1:15:18
mean they've kind of played a little bit above their heads and I think a lot of that has to do with you know playing for
1:15:25
other and the culture and and all that stuff that the you know that those yeah I mean certainly certainly
1:15:31
the go cly theend uh and now they have one less good goalie and they have a guy
1:15:37
that's we'll call him we'll call him a project how about that we'll call him
1:15:42
yeah it's a project we'll call him goalie Bob's pet project yeah it's Pet Project yeah I had a pet project in
1:15:49
seventh grade once yeah a project destroyed it in high school that we
1:15:55
forgot to turn in got it got oh that's right yeah yeah I got a D minus somehow
