1:11
other things just to announce before we do dive into everything a reminder that we do have our merch the link is in our
1:19
Instagram bio I personally did buy a sweatshirt and it looks pretty good I
1:24

1:30
that um and also we have our Allstar draft live stream coming up we're probably going to do that through the
1:36
inside the rink YouTube actually so we'll have more details on
1:42
that soon I will talk with Connor about that but that live stream is happening
1:47
yeah I'm excited for that it's going to be it's going to be very fun but last week you and I and Nick went to the
1:53
watch party it's a great time so even though the Penguins lost we had a lot of fun shout out to the Penguins in Arena
1:59
host Jaden for introducing himself to us and following the podcast now which was
2:05
pretty cool yeah he came up to us we started talking really nice guy he was he's very awesome you know he came up to
2:12
us like he went out of his way to talk to us and we very appreciate that and you know he messaged us on uh Instagram
2:18
we got we got slid into the DMS so and he said next time uh we go to
2:23
a game he's just let him know and we'll see what happens I'm excited get some connections in there yeah exactly that's
2:30
that's what I'm saying we were really kind of hoping that he well actually mostly I was they did some trivia that
2:35
night which it was it was fun yeah but we were hoping he'd come over to us and we'd plug the podcast but that didn't
2:42
happen a lot might get another chance yeah maybe I think we might there were a lot of kids who were answering questions
2:49
so let let the kids have their time exactly none of us won the raffle that's okay but that that Carolina game like
2:56
you could tell I was so mad oh yeah it was it was a rough one the Penguins
3:03
did lose 32 in overtime yeah another overtime loss we're not that good in
3:10
overtime no no they stink and Eric Carlson had some had an interesting
3:17
comment after that I have to pull it up real quick
3:23
but don't ask um shout out my text oh my text last
3:29
night that was brutal oh yeah that was funny but where is it I can't find the
3:37
picture oh wait there it is no it's not okay but basically Eric Carlson said he
3:43
he said he said I have my theories on how to fix the three on three yeah problems or struggles yeah maybe if he
3:49
would score yeah that be something I don't know why I can't find that he hasn't really done much for his contract
3:55
not really yeah but you know he's on a seven game point streak so can't argue that but I did see something the other
4:01
day on daily face off where they did like a Norris Trophy ranking based pure
4:07
on like analytics and stuff his analytical game like he's really good pure analytics he's good he was third in
4:13
noris Trophy rankings based off analytics but like as you mentioned like on the ey test like we're not seeing
4:20
we're not see not give him a noris yeah we're not seeing like the AIC Carson of last year and I don't think all any of
4:27
us expected 100 points out of him this year not right away and he's starting to get it but like it's you know he's supposed
4:34
to be one of the top guys in the league and he's not you know really making it
4:40
look like that right now yeah he's making 11.5 million he's not playing like he's making that much you know
4:46
that's the highest big player on the pens and he's we can see more out of him but I think hopefully when the power
4:53
play gets going we'll see the production come out a little more do you think they should swap l tang and Carlson on the
5:00
power play like put l Tang back up top do you think that would get things going a bit uh I've considered that one it's
5:06
not a horrible idea both I'm looking at it right now so Carlson through 42 games
5:14
has 31 points and leang has 29 Points through 42 games so they're both pretty
5:20
even so far um so maybe keep Carlson but I think their bigger issue with the power play
5:28
that I've kind of seen is it's a weird way to look at it I think they have too much star power up there which is a
5:34
weird thing to complain about but they need to go back to that old style when
5:42
they had like Patrick hornquist out there that gritty guy in front of the net you know doing the dirty work and
5:48
then you let the Stars you know kind of take care of the rest whereas you just you got too many shooters out there you
5:54
got to have more more people out there to help but the thing is they have those Shooters and they don't shoot yeah they
6:00
have the shooters they don't shoot and you know we talk about arguing like Len should be on power play one but like I
6:06
think Len's been really good in his role and like focusing on the penalty kill and it's like defensive part of the game
6:12
like that has took a huge step forward since him not being on the power play and Eric Carson you know he's two
6:19
talented not to be on the first Power Play yeah it's it's that's true and L Tang's done great he's I'm looking at it
6:25
right now too it's he's a plus uh 15 right now and Carl a plus 10 but
6:30
especially knowing how much more time leang puts out there on the penalty kill that's impressive numbers to see yeah
6:38
and we much no one wants to shoot the puck like someone's just got to step forward and say I'm going to carry this
6:43
power play every time I get the puck I'm going to shoot it and that guy should be Sydney Crosby he's like seventh in goals
6:50
I think he's got 26 just let it rip they're all um selfless and they need to be more
6:57
selfish cuz even what game was I don't know it was one of the games earlier this week it was like
7:02
multiple breakaways and they just kept they would wait till the last second either to shoot they kept looking for the pass kept looking for the pass I'm
7:09
like just shoot it take take the shot hope the guy gets the rebound or something I'm like and they do it on the
7:15
power play it's I think it correlates with the too much star power they're trying to spread around the points and
7:20
the goals evenly to everybody you just need to have your guy that's out there shooting it and scoring not just like
7:27
trying to you know share it all around and everything yeah I mean it works great when they do the little
7:32
tic-tac-toe thing you know that they do but sometimes they do it too much yeah
7:38
just you just shoot it I can see that but if we're going to go into this Carolina game that like first period for
7:44
the Penguins was brutal oh yeah they not they came out looking like that was probably the the worst period we've seen
7:51
all year from this team but you know they they did bounce back in the third period where the big
7:57
guy the big boy stepped up Jake gensel a nice Feats from Cindy Crosby and then
8:03
we pull the goalie and we score again thanks to Brian rust yeah there was someone at the watch party who was
8:09
sitting behind us was like no don't pull the goalie they it's not good when they pull the goalie that didn't work last
8:16
time and then they pulled the goalie she's like why I'm like oh I really hope they score now to prove her wrong I'm
8:21
like and I say under my breath and that's why we pulled the goalie yeah but they did struggle on the first and then
8:27
I feel like that in the second and third they really got back to their game and yeah overall they finished with more
8:32
shots on goal than the hurricanes and we talk about the overtime issue like obviously the guys
8:40
aren't as young and fast as they used to be and I think three G three really relies on like your speed oh yeah for
8:47
sure I feel confident when like when Crosby's out there but like when malin's out there I just don't think he has the
8:53
legs to keep up on overtime especially when you get stuck out there for over a minute and he's not been known for the
9:01
best defensive player yes ever either I mean he focuses his game on you know
9:06
offense where he's not Crosby you know really getting back there you know that great two-way player that he is um you
9:14
know but yeah malan I mean you can't not have him out there but you got to put
9:20
somebody out there that's going to kind of correlate with him better yeah I I don't know who that exactly I think you
9:25
got you got to put him out there in the right situation like a offensive offensive face off yeah but I remember
9:32
in this game Crosby went off for a change for malan when Crosby should have just stay on the ice and just played
9:37
some defense but he's probably obviously tired you know it's overtime it's a long it was a long it was a battle was a
9:43
grind of a game so I mean we see got a point I I'm we're very lucky we got a
9:49
point in this game considering our start oh yeah exactly this point on in the season because these wild card standings
9:56
are annoying and crazy literally I I swear every night I'm like okay I need
10:02
this team this team and this team lose and then they just all win because yeah of course penguins are only one point
10:07
out of wild card spot and they have they have games in hand two games in hand on
10:13
Tampa so yeah if you look at it by uh percent wise they would be tied with
10:20
Washington um for that I'm not scared of Washington no I I don't know how they're
10:27
in the spot where they are they have a minus 21 goal differential minus 24 actually mine's
10:34
outdated I have minus 21 on mine maybe I need to reload it again probably no okay
10:40
maybe the NHL app is just uh wrong it's still saying 24 huh what are you looking at NHL uh.com oh so so am I oh wait no
10:50
that's because I have to oh it makes me change the day on it I didn't know that they keep updating this thing I don't
10:55
know how to work it yeah the NHL there it is website and app or is a little
11:00
iffy I also technology there yeah that maybe Penguins aren't one out they're
11:07
three out of Red Wings yep okay that would make sense and the Red Wings have
11:13
started to pick it up as of late so yeah I think they're going to be good they've had a lot of good uh guys coming through
11:19
the system and everything and gold ending has gotten better over the years when I was making my playoff predictions
11:25
I was debating like do I put them in do I put buffalo in I think ultimately I left Buffalo and
11:31
Detroit out but yeah they're definitely they are I wouldn't say they're completely surprising me but they are
11:37
definitely a little bit I look at the teams in front of the Penguins right now the capitals I mentioned I'm not really
11:43
afraid of the Devils they have some injury issues and go tending issues so I think we can pass some than the
11:49
Islanders they they lost to the Blackhawks last night and we beat them twice this year so I think we're better
11:55
than all three of these teams in front of us and not to mention we have games in hand on all three of these teams so
12:00
yeah so hopefully maybe that odd little break will help us a bit Yeah but also
12:07
that by- week's coming up so we shouldn't really worry about it too too much
12:13
but but also in the West is kind of in a
12:18
similar place oh yeah they are it's a heated race guess who's right in the thick of it a heated race to get
12:27
slapped yeah but if if I I look at La like if I'm I
12:33
get a one SE in the west I don't want to play the Kings in the first round even though they're struggling yeah they're struggling now they've been really uh
12:39
surprisingly good this year um Edmonton just took their spot because I mean they're they're on five game win streak
12:47
I think Edmonton finishes second in the Pacific Vegas has been struggling Ed
12:52
snaps winning streak soon because I don't want them to break the Penguins winning streak record oh yeah I hope so
12:58
but it's I don't know they just they figured it out finally I knew they would they're too good not to you know I mean
13:04
that yeah that wild card race is and they're kind of depending on how La play if La picks
13:11
it up and the Oilers um stop winning 12 games in a row
13:17
they could be right back in the fight with the wild card because La has 50 points and Edmonton has
13:23
51 yeah so and I mean I think it's going to be
13:29
I think it's going to be each uh like division kind of splits it and gets one
13:35
each oh yeah I could see that because each each division kind of has a bunch I
13:40
think the central I think the central like you can change to order but the three are lock the Jets Avan and the
13:47
Stars those those ones won't it'll be interesting to see who finishes at the top in the west between the Jets and
13:52
cans cuz they're I mean the Jets just don't lose at this point I've saw a stat
13:58
what yeah I saw a stat where they haven't gave up more than three goals in like 30 plus games oh their gos yeah
14:04
Incredible Hu just just never you know has a down year it seems like yeah and
14:10
he he got paid too so he's living up to his contract and the Canucks are a surprise yep we talked about last week
14:17
when Nick was like oh I don't think they're going to make the playoffs and then do you know who's kind of sliding as of L who the Rangers oh my gosh they
14:26
making it they are not going to drop out of playoff spot I hope so Flyers are
14:31
right there in second Flyers are for real they're not going away why that's been the one of
14:37
the biggest surprises this year too I kind of I kind of had them towards the bottom yeah I think everyone did pretty
14:43
much but yeah I don't really know what it is if it's just torts waking them up
14:48
or they out heart waking up they play a hard style of hockey and they they outwork everyone and it's the results
14:55
are coming with that but do you want to go on to the the Kraken game oh yeah much happier game another shout out for
15:02
Tristan D jar who's tied for the league lead with your boy oh yeah honor Ingram
15:09
got to love him you took the words right out of my mouth that was perfect uh yeah I was at this game uh
15:16
they obviously moved it because the Steelers were playing at uh 4:00 on Sunday so the terrible tows were out in
15:22
PVG pants Arena it was a good atmosphere and you know the boys probably played one of the most solid games of the year
15:29
they they shut down the cracken and it was probably one of the easier shut outs for Tristan jari he wasn't too busy he
15:35
he only had 22 saves but it was the big boys in this one again but one thing I
15:41
want to mention is Joo Conor on malins line has has been so year he's he's
15:46
getting a lot better lately it was slow at first and I was really disappointed because I was expecting kind of this play from him but now he's he's turn it
15:54
around especially at like the end of last year where he kind of came onto the scene but now he can be like that top
16:00
six guy with malan but you know with Riley Smith out and he's Young
16:07
Too exactly we have legs we will take any good young player mhm with the age
16:14
the penguins are at yeah but yeah and we snapped the cracken nine games win
16:19
streak yeah that's right they were ham Western teams were like on win streaks you mentioned it last week the Jets
16:26
Kraken the Oilers still on Now kraken are at a three- game losing streak oh
16:31
boy yeah completely flipped it around yeah but the the punch outshot the
16:37
Kraken 33 to 22 as you mentioned the Kraken were hot but Sydney Crosby's a
16:42
little hotter than the Kraken he's been hot all year 25 and 26 I really hope he
16:48
gets into the All-Star skills competition oh Crosby yeah and we'll talk more about that later with Allstar
16:54
did they not put him in we'll discuss later he's he's the face of League I mean yeah I was going to say I don't
17:00
know how we'll discuss that when we get to not put Crosby in more of NHL news
17:05
but yeah I mean this game was just complete all around oh yeah first to
17:12
whistle to the finals whistle um it was just a great game I mean I don't know
17:17
what else to say yeah they did they did great I mean you can't can't complain when there's a shut out no you really
17:23
love limiting the shots too make it a little easier on Jory you know I mean think that's what you know they got to
17:28
try and do every single game get those you know few goals in there and then you know play defensively that's that's kind
17:35
of a style a lot of teams don't really sit with too much I know the Islanders do that quite a bit but it's more just
17:42
every team just go out there score score score it's just I don't know I think the defensive play in the league is a little
17:49
underrated but when you get a game like that it's nice to see for sure yeah well can move to turn our
17:57
attention to Another Western team the penguins are facing night we said they're out in Vegas they've been there
18:03
few for a few days because they've had a few days off because then NHL schedule was weird they can use a few days off to
18:11
yeah they could have cuz they're I saw I think it's in March their schedule is like every other
18:18
day they're playing hockey that by week's goingon to be for them coming up here
18:24
yeah but Vegas has been struggling a little bit lately oh I've gone way yeah
18:31
and their last 10 games are five and five so and in their last four they're
18:38
they're one and three so I think so if I'm reading right but they are five and five and their last
18:43
10 uh got some injuries yeah Jack eel just hit the IR so we don't have to face
18:49
him tonight but playing in Vegas is always hard you know that that crowd it's a
18:55
really it's a really home ICE Advantage when you're playing in Vegas but I mentioned they did get there a little
19:01
early so you know the time the time zone difference probably adusted there but a
19:07
Saturday night in Vegas you'll probably see Tristan jari in this one I can imagine I believe it's supposed to be him yeah I can we'll check I think it's
19:15
and then Logan Thompson who's still very good goalie but uh has not done as well
19:21
as Aiden Hill I believe it's yeah it's a yeah Logan Thompson last thing saying
19:27
Jory and Thompson both expected okay so Thompson he been solid nine T sa
19:33
percentage 2.63 goals against average I you can't complain about those numbers
19:38
considering no he's been their main one in which is surprising because Aiden
19:44
Hill has uh I mean maybe he I don't know I don't follow Vegas that closely maybe he was injured a little bit Aiden Hill
19:50
has been out for a bit he's on IR because he's on my fantasy team he's one of my many injured players but his his
19:56
stats have been really good so far he's got a 933 safe percentage and
20:03
A3 goals against you know he's 102 and
20:08
two so it'll be good for Vegas to get him back probably I would think before
20:14
the playoffs yeah I think Thor is out too yeah he is yeah so that's one of
20:19
their top defenseman there says Hills expected to return this upcoming week
20:25
probably on around Monday so hopefully they can get him going get the team back
20:30
in a nice Groove CU they're I mean they are starting they're getting back there a little bit they're coming off back
20:35
toback wins pretty commanding wins they won 4-1 over Nashville and then 5-1 over
20:41
the Rangers but having Aiden Hill be there a little bit more consistently will be good for Vegas but yeah we saw aen Hill
20:49
was kind of he came he came on of the scene like out don't over in the finals oh yeah and like I didn't think his play
20:56
would continue into the regular season but it obvious obvously is and now you have Logan Thompson you know having that
21:02
onew punch is so big right now in this league cuz they always have good go t yeah even their first year when they had
21:10
all those injuries and they were down to their like fifth goalie or something oh yeah I I remember that who is it was
21:15
there some guy named like Ferguson or something who I don't know I remember legac Oscar Dan all those guys I don't
21:22
even remember and they just they just kept winning with them like so Vegas always has good goal ending so I don't
21:28
know maybe if it's just like their system or their coaching or what but I think their defensive structure like
21:34
helps out a lot because they always been a good defensive team and we're going to see that tonight as you know we Mark
21:41
Stone's got seven points in his last five games so they still have guys that can produce you know without eel in this
21:49
game tonight but this is a game the penguin should win I believe you're calling off a lot of rest you're going
21:55
against a team that's really struggling lately you got a hot goener trishan jari you should win this game and then you
22:02
should go to Arizona win that game too I don't know let's let's slow down talk
22:08
about that one now slow down a little bit there I mean Arizona is hungry
22:13
though because they they've been real close in these last few games especially this past week they have two losses they
22:22
lost to Cal garina over time and then they uh lost 2-1 against uh the Canucks
22:29
you know who were obviously top of the league so that's pretty good to you know stay in contention with them it's it's
22:37
really the the uh the offense has to get going more for Arizona yeah their their
22:43
defense has looked very solid Conor Ingram you know we mentioned him a little bit he's been exceptional as of
22:48
late so if he's if he ends up being the one in net against Pittsburgh it's going to be a tough game for them I think
22:56
uh we'll see we'll see we'll see how it goes oh my gosh um you know but they
23:03
just they haven't done anything too great as a late uh offensively so if
23:08
they can get that going they're you got to watch out for them because they have the guys who can do it yeah they have
23:14
they they have the to offensive firep power the only thing the biggest thing that this team is lacking and it would
23:21
be a huge help and I'd love for them to go out and get somebody because they have tons of cap space I don't know who
23:26
they're going to get but they need a first line Center they have not had that all
23:32
LOL maybe but like I don't I don't I don't think the Ys are in that window yet to go out and get a guy like that
23:39
cuz also Calgary is still right in the mix for that wild card spot with them so yeah true so I don't think they're going
23:46
to go get someone like him but I don't know maybe maybe someone in the off se
23:52
he maybe in the offseason but it's like you have the cap space now you know maybe try and make an effort to if
23:57
you're showing the effort right now um you know in season that you're trying to win it's going to get more guys over to
24:04
you you know maybe in the off season 2 I mean people aren't going to want to go play there if they're not going to be competing so you gotta you know show
24:12
either competing they got more guys coming up through the system who's like really impressed you
24:17
this year there's been a few there's been a few um CU obviously i' I've been
24:22
impressed by Conor Ingram like I'm oh yeah that's the biggest one I saw I was completely wrong on that at first over
24:29
the off season cuz he wasn't anything like that great last year and then they resigned and I'm like why are they re
24:36
signing him because I thought that uh Theo was a lot better and he's been eh
24:41
so far I thought wasn't he pretty good last year he was he was pretty decent last year um but this year he's like
24:48
he's Hit or Miss he'll either do real good or not not great but they brought Ingram back I was really surprised by it
24:54
but luckily he's proven me wrong on that one but there there's a few others um
24:59
you know some I've been disappointed by and some I've been surprised by um melli or I can never say his name it's a weird
25:06
one I call him melli um Matias melli he's uh done really well so far he's got
25:14
um a decent amount of points he's got 29 Points through 43 games but just seeing
25:19
him skate around and passing it and it's not just him there's quite a few other
25:25
ones they're Puck handling and movement has been really impressive soar but he's been one of the kind of undersung Heroes
25:33
of that uh style Logan Coy has done that really well so far too defensively has
25:38
been really surprising as uh Shawn dery I liked you know adding him and everything I just expected him to kind
25:44
of be that kind of middle guy but he's done really well he's got 25 points
25:50
through 37 games how is uh Zucker doing Zucker hasn't
25:55
been as good as I expected Ed he's 15 points through 33
26:01
games um so I kind of expected a little bit more out of him I'm still sad there was no Zucker tribute video I know that
26:07
was disappointing I was like where where is it I thought I was really sad when I didn't I don't know like we didn't
26:13
really want to Playoff round with him or make that much noise just always like to give them a little just like put a
26:18
picture up there be like he was kind of a fan favorite last year because he was he'd really get into it when there were
26:23
fights like there videos of him in the Penalty Box going like come on like I want to see that in the tribute video
26:29
but like a guy like dumo like deserves a tribute video which he got I was but
26:34
like I don't know like I feel like if he's only here for like three years and we here for at least like a year or two
26:42
I think you should get just like a quick little like picture up there yeah I I don't know about a video not a video though you should get a pict like
26:48
welcome back Jason Zucker he was kind of a fan favorite last year so I feel like he deserved it but then there nothing I
26:55
was like Wow disappointing is Matt Dumba really I Wason ask you signing this off
27:01
season and he really has not done much he's a minus 10 he's only got five
27:06
points through 42 games oh jeez I mean if he got going it would be it would be
27:12
a lot better there's other people defens $3.9 million and only yeah no he's Five
27:18
Points good but uh former penguin Nick buad is H fifth for them in points uh
27:24
which is very surprising um he's got 26 points through 43
27:30
games um you know kerfoot's been good uh carcone has been great goal scoring wise
27:36
he's been a little bit slower as of late but starting out the year he was really good I know you've read my statements
27:43
about him a few times oh yes really really like him um is this basically your statement for the week is I mean
27:49
yeah we don't really have a statement for the week because I'm here so I could just kind of talk about it freely I have
27:55
a I have a question you mentioned uh Nick St yeah like his impressive play
28:00
mhm at a capit of 2.1 billion and he's got a year left for next year do you
28:05
think he could get moved at the deadline cuz you know a team like the brunes and the Avalanche they need a centerman he's
28:12
having a career season so and at this cat pit that's that's a bargain who's it
28:18
you said buad okay they could I wouldn't be if they were to slip
28:25
which I don't expect them to but if they were to slip I could see that being a good trade piece for him because his
28:31
value is obviously yeah very high right now uh but the other thing I kind of like about him being there is the
28:39
Coyotes roster is pretty young and it's going to keep getting younger as they have more and more guys come up so I
28:45
think it might be nice for them to have that veteran centerman kind of you know
28:51
holding down that third line potentially fourth line you know in future years too
28:57
and if he fits in their system you know I could see him staying there but I mean you never you never really know with
29:04
that too yeah kind it kind of go either way but my thing with the coyotes like I
29:09
don't think they're there yet to make noise in the playoffs or I don't think they're going to get in the playoffs
29:14
well that's where we differ in opin that's but I I don't I don't see them making a lot of noise in the playoffs
29:21
you never know cuz you know a you're talking about this off here like you look at the West right now there's like
29:27
Powerhouse teams oh yeah no I I don't disagree with you they're very good at the very top West yeah I've just also
29:34
seen in past years you know you make your little uh playoff bracket or whatever Anything Can Happen top teams
29:40
like consistently lose somehow yeah you know it's I let's look at it last year
29:46
Boston against Florida yeah um I'm not saying that's gonna happen I'm just
29:51
saying you never know what's going to happen in I think Florida's a way better team than Arizona I'm not I'm not
29:58
disagreeing with that I'm not saying Arizona is going far I'm just saying you never you just have to get in yeah and Arizona got to try punch they have they
30:04
have a hot goalie they have a hot goalie they have pretty good defensive play
30:09
besides Matt Dumba who needs to figure it out yeah they have the potential to have that offensive Firepower and I I
30:16
mean they're maybe a piece or two away that top Center to is just what drives you through you
30:22
can have like all the star town in the world but if you don't have a good goal in the playoffs you're not going to anywhere no I mean that's how it works
30:29
in the playoffs I'm not saying they're you know yots for the cup but they want
30:34
to see they have a legitimate chance to make it to the playoffs they're right there in the heart of theace it would be a good experience for a young team to if
30:40
you squeak and even though you're probably going to get stomped on in the first round but it's a good experience
30:46
you know play off hockey and that's what you play for you want to get that experience too you want to be going in
30:52
you know let's say next year you know they don't make it this year then you go in next year maybe you know they really
30:58
do continue to turn around you're the number two team going in in uh you know the central or whatever but then I
31:05
wouldn't have my expectations that highp he two but still I need to put him
31:13
in one I think the top three in the central is a lock for the next two season we'll see it always changes but
31:19
let's say you go in like that but then you go in and you don't have any playoff experience besides uh kerfoot who was
31:26
with the leaf we all those are quick exits for and he has first still there first
31:33
round experience but besides that looking at that lineup they really don't have much experience so that's why it's
31:39
great to try and go get some now MH and then you know even if it doesn't go far
31:44
you you feel a little bit more comfortable going in when you have a more you know put together legitimate
31:49
team yeah so I think that's why you got to you got to take your you know take your shot and go for it now you know
31:55
just see what you can do speaking of the that Florida bracket prediction oh yeah did you have that no okay I absolutely
32:03
did not so I've told you that we have a pet rabbit right yeah shout out to Maisy
32:10
our little funny yes but um so the past two years I've made a had her make a
32:17
bracket you know how like you see the videos of like animals like you know you like Pick A Treat or like toy something
32:24
we do that for her she picked Florida to make it to the final what y she actually did very very good
32:31
like the first year she did it she picked Colorado to win the cup and they and they did so her favorite something
32:39
her favorite player is kale ma because his name is kale yes yeah that's crazy y we got to release
32:46
that when uh when the we'll do a we'll have to make a video put up there um but
32:52
yeah she is somehow a bracket genius and I think she had a better bracket than me
32:58
last year is she a penguins fan or a Ys fan Penguins she's not a Ys fan cuz uh I
33:03
don't know P but um I don't know we maybe she gets it from we leave NHL network on all
33:10
day she's taking notes smart little rabbit not sometimes she had a little
33:16
trouble trying to find the Apple this morning she likes apples but all right
33:22
well moving on to other things around Le I think I'm more on this game oh okay
33:27
AR Arizona ninth in power play percentage which is very impressive yeah
33:32
I told you they have good offensive power and you mentioned like how they're good at moving the puck and I and
33:39
they're good on that the power play but I think for the penguin really take advantage in this game is in the faceof
33:45
circle in the do they will get killed that the penguins are going to work the Yos like I said they don't have that
33:53
solid first line Center and I mean really they kind of don't have a second line Center cuz that they were supposed
33:59
to have uh Hayton was supposed to kind of be helping with that Barrett Hatton and he's been hurt most the year I don't
34:06
know when he's coming back um but even when he was there he wasn't doing much
34:11
and it's like that's why they need I don't even need it to be like a you know
34:16
a top like scoring first line forward like someone who's got that experience
34:22
though and can help him out yeah um like face off wise too like that would be huge uh boost for them but cuz their
34:30
their centers right now are somewhat uh Nick Smoltz who's also a Winger buad
34:37
[ __ ] kerfoot who's also a Winger it's like that's kind of their top guys that are centers like it's and they're all
34:44
young uh besides uh K's pretty CO's very young he's um how old is
34:50
schaltz I want to say he's like TW let me look I want to say he's like 27 is oh
34:56
okay so he's right right in his prime 26 26 oh no that's CRA what I clicked on the wrong one cross has been good though
35:04
right kuss has been good yeah he's been surprisingly good he's uh got 27 points so far so he's done well smaltz is yeah
35:13
he's 27 yep what's his stat line he is third in points for them he plays really
35:18
well with uh Clayton Keller yeah uh smt has 28 points yeah I think is 39 he's
35:26
almost at a point per game um I mean he's clearly their Superstar there and I
35:33
think K's kind of going to be their second one in a couple years here just got to let him develop some I think the
35:41
key in this game is for the Penguins to control pace of play manage to Puck well
35:46
and not let these young young young gugs take over yep absolutely this game absolutely that's the legs and yeah
35:53
skating around them cuz the three you got to watch and I'm sure people will be watching in this game that kind of listen to this more is look at Keller
36:00
melli and uh [ __ ] and watch how they skate around with the puck it's very
36:06
skilled you got to stay out of the box against this team because that's yes that's we going to get killed but the
36:11
Penguins do have a good penalty kill they're seventh in the league right now it'll be a good match up yeah but this
36:17
might be a low low scoring game considering how well these two goalies are playing Conor and gum and Tristan
36:23
jar but in the previous matchup where we were all in attendance big Jeff Carter
36:28
got the voice going yes that was not what I was expecting that night I never expect M from Jeff Carter so um no one
36:35
does he scored a short-handed goal and a power play goal yeah I I'm not asking for that Jeff just just give me
36:42
something I I don't really know what even to say against that um because just got unlucky with that
36:49
like you know Jeff Carter has one or two good games out of the year and let's make it another one let's make it
36:55
another one on Monday against Ariz you never know with Jeff Carter what's your prediction let's get predictions for
37:00
this oh let's get yours cuz you're the expert yeah you know it's I think it's going to
37:07
be very close I think it's GNA be I think it's going to be
37:13
surprisingly I know there're supposed to be two good goalen and defensively but I think both teams haven't had a kind of
37:21
higher scoring game in a while so I think it's going to kind of CH turn around I think we're going to get like
37:29
a I'm going to say like four three yots a got to go y it's gonna
37:37
happen they're they're they're they're happen we'll see I'm saying 43 oh my I
37:43
could even see overtime and that's that's where the penguin all right we're done if it goes
37:49
overtime I got I got I got five two pens
37:54
always pick five as the winning goal number I usually do 64 that's my
38:00
score not giving up five I don't see that n 52 fence I think the power play
38:05
gets a goal in this one too honestly I like the five not five the 4-3 score but I'm going to have to be biased and pick
38:11
the Penguins so you're flipping it the 4-3 pens yes yours in Reverse okay and
38:17
not in overtime maybe not I hope not I don't know about over time CU that's always so
38:22
hard to predict I I could see it though I could definitely see it happening yeah it's definely going to be a fun one that
38:28
would be my luck too cuz I want to stay up and watch the whole thing and have to stay up super late on Monday on Monday
38:33
don't you have work oh yeah I am going to have work so I might just be a little tired but be fine got to battle through
38:40
I got to stay up for that one so I know all right well moving on to other things around the league that's not the Arizona
38:47
Coyotes that was a long time we great segment yeah that was Andrew's coyote
38:54
statement of week yes you're welcome everybody um this week flurry became second all
39:00
time in wins he has 552 now last week I put it in here that he tied with 552 he tied
39:07
with 551 then he won then he secured it with 552 and he went on Pat macafee oh yeah
39:13
he did that was great to that was great to watch and he didn't McAfee say like if he scores a goalie goal he's goingon
39:19
to donate like 250,000 it was something about it was I don't remember the number exactly but I think it was 250,000 it
39:25
was a lot you know thinking about that oh he's going to try time that you know he's trying it yeah so Pat McAfee said
39:32
if flurry scores a goalie goal he will donate $250,000 to a charity of flurry's
39:38
choice which we hope that happens oh yeah not just for the charity that flurry picks but because the man needs a
39:45
goalie goal oh yeah like he's second all time in wins has won three cups all he needs is a goalie goal that's his last
39:52
achievement that he needs yeah he's like I'm not retired I score a goalie goal if he ever if he happens to score a goalie
39:59
goal against us I will not be mad no because I I might actually start cheering I'm like he got it oh wait we
40:06
lost but like he's the guy that like you would think would obviously have a
40:11
goalie goal cuz he would St yeah exactly I mean he I'm sure most people saw the
40:16
clip of him against the Coyotes coming way out of the net going to the PO playing playing out
40:23
there out there love which coyot absolutely killed the wild that game just saying but it wasn't against flurry
40:29
he he came in relief so luckily they didn't light him up yeah but you know the wild are they're two and five in
40:35
their last seven yeah they've been it's been they were really good
40:41
after their coaching change but they've just been yeah but with that you know
40:46
flurry he's having I'd say a pretty solid season 2.95 goals against average 897 save
40:54
percentage you'd obviously like to to see that save percentage over 900 but like with a lot of teams needing
41:03
goenda do you think flurry would be would possibly get traded I could I
41:12
could see it if Minnesota keeps slipping like they are and they I really don't
41:17
see them making it I don't see I don't I
41:22
but the one thing about Minnesota unlike these other teams that flurry's kind of moved around a little bit more is they
41:30
like him as a person a lot better so I believe that if they do trade him
41:35
they're going to do it right it's totally not like Vegas did it it's totally F's decision if he wants to stay
41:41
in Minnesota he's going to stay and if he does go somewhere it's going to be somewhere he wants to go it's not just
41:47
going to be like they around Colorado
41:52
um cuz gorev like he's on Pace for like like to play like 60 plus games right
41:58
now they really don't have a backup in the Avalanche uh another team maybe the
42:06
Devils but like I don't see I don't see I don't see flurry accepting a trade
42:12
where he could possibly pay the Penguins in the first round I don't think he would really have
42:17
an issue with that really I think he would actually kind of enjoy it I don't think You' want to go to a team that's
42:22
fighting with the Penguins for a playoff spot no I think he you know that's just
42:27
his also his fun style competition I mean they all know it's just nobody's
42:32
going to get mad at flurry for you know none of those guys will horrible would have to happen for for us to entirely
42:40
just trying to play and win some more I another team that needs help is the maple e but flry Toronto don't see that
42:48
I don't see that one happening um just rumor boys over here oh yeah you could
42:55
talk more about I do like the leaves too um but no leaves I mean leav need go
43:00
tending but I don't see them having even the cap space for I don't see flurry in the end of his career wanting to deal
43:07
with the Toronto media and that whole gosh I don't I don't see him doing that
43:12
but maybe go to Arizona that would be we could I mean I think you'd rather jump off the CL I I
43:18
hate to uh I don't see that one happening but I'd love to see it I'd love flurry in
43:23
Arizona would be great yeah um I don't think he wants to finish his career with
43:29
3,000 Arizona State kids watching him it's like 5,000 more that oh my gosh
43:35
it's not that bad it's a cool it's a cool uh mullet Arena I'm so sorry A great experience great I really want to
43:42
go to m i want to experience it myself have a shift day trip field trip
43:47
that would be great we need a field trip that would be fun I I want to field trip to an All-Star Game in Pittsburgh but I
43:53
don't know if that'll happen yeah come on Gary yeah we I already ranted about that but we can if we're done talking
43:59
about flurry we can move on to the allstar stuff that we were going to talk about yeah sure all right well first off
44:05
the jerseys got revealed did a person make them like no Justin Bieber did oh he did yeah oh I
44:15
mean I already didn't like the guy now no I don't like him even more you want to drop the gloves with
44:21
him yeah I'd like to I mean he's Canadian too so you know
44:27
it'd be more enjoyable who do you got in that fight I don't know I got Andrew I'll take you all day I mean he just
44:34
sings and dances around what else did he do yeah you know and design horrible
44:40
jerseys they're brutal I mean like it's in Toronto and those jerseys are like nothing like Toronto you know what I'm
44:46
saying like those look like those would be appropriate in like Florida last year you know they wouldn't be appropriate
44:53
anywhere honestly they're horrible it looks like a 5-year-old made them and like the name plates on the bottom yeah
45:00
the name plates on the bottom that's something you do for women's hockey they hardly even do that now but like I got
45:06
to look these up whenever the um NW I think you want to look them up was still around they had the name plate on the
45:12
ball hurt your eyes I mean I know my eyes I got to be able to complain about them
45:18
better be able to complain about the better I mean it's just like especially the yellow one oh look
45:26
at the yellow one it's yellow on yellow like the yellow stars on yellow
45:32
Jersey like pick a different color then than yellow like why I mean at least it
45:40
doesn't look doesn't look as horrible on like the white or the blue the Red's not great but you put the
45:48
yellow on the yellow I still hate them but they've like slightly grown on me since the second I saw them when we were at the watch party I looked at Nick's
45:54
phone I'm like what is that no they're just that bad they haven't grown on me at all they're terrible the teeniest
46:00
teeniest teeniest teeniest tiny bit they are still very very horrible though no
46:05
even the uh I miss like oh yeah the name the name thing is on the bottom I told we told
46:11
you that do you know how annoying that's going to be too because NHL players are
46:17
not used to that you're like some guys like leang they tuck their jersey in the
46:22
back there so you're not going to see his I mean you're going to be recognize it like going be oh he's not going to be
46:28
there but other people like you might not like recognize him right away or something and like a lot of like new
46:34
hockey fans like tune in the allstar game they don't and they're going to see that pitiful display of jerseys come on
46:40
so bad isn't this Adidas's last year with the jerseys anyway it's going to
46:45
Fanatics yeah but this wasn't Adidas that designed them it was Justin Bieber remember but yeah we are moving the NHL
46:52
jerseys are changing over to Fanatics next year
46:57
which we'll see how those are yeah probably fall apart on I mean as long as
47:02
they just can consistently they're gonna spell cross's name wrong probably will I mean it shouldn't be that hard
47:08
like when we moved to to Adidas it wasn't that bad they're like a I like the Adidas jerseys yeah the Adidas
47:14
jerseys look F especially with even though I know this is technically a fake Jersey but
47:20
you I like the style up here I like the I like the NH you know than the the
47:26
rebok ones were good for their time but I think that like this is just a more modern yeah I had no problem with it's
47:32
just like a couple changes most of them still looked exactly like the jerseys it's just a new material new design some
47:39
teams got new jerseys whenever that switched over but like for the most part not all of them are great some of the
47:46
alternate ones have been really good I think um I think Tampa is supposed to be coming out with one oh yeah like the
47:53
pirate the pirate theme one I want to see what that is they did I think they already came out with them did it come out I don't know
47:58
if they're actually going to be wearing them in G Baker Mayfield was wearing it oh really that makes sense but I don't I
48:07
I don't know how I feel about it yeah I was like what did they call it the gas Barillo
48:16
jerseys I don't know just look up Tampa B jerseys that's there it is it's a little
48:24
bit of it I think I don't know I kind of like it the I don't know how I feel about the logo in the middle of the
48:29
head on the skull but I don't really I like the wheel that looks cool I like
48:35
how it's I don't know actually I don't I like anything about this you know what I think it should have been they're
48:41
actually not the and it should have been the white skull instead ooh that would been good or they should they should
48:46
have switched it at least that would be better I don't know if these are actually going to be fully game warn because the Adidas logo is on the front
48:53
of the jersey and that's not normal hm and also I see like black versions of
48:59
the black logo on the Jersey so I don't know what's going on with that Gasparilla that's what it's
49:07
called or why are I think those other jerseys were fake or whatever I don't
49:13
know but cuz the ones I was looking at that had Adidas logo in the front that doesn't match up with a picture from the
49:20
article but never mind but yeah
49:26
they're they're pretty cool but what's going on with the skills competition now yes we mentioned that
49:32
earlier so you listened last week we talked about how they're only going to have 12 players in I I know that they
49:38
announced 10 of the people who are in but we have to vote the last two in because too much voting no there is way
49:44
too much voting this year and the 10 who were announced did not include Sydney Crosby wow that's just dumb let's pull
49:52
it up also the voting like NH shoot we just is everybody just gets like one
49:57
vote like normal I don't want to have to keep voting over and over again to like
50:02
try to I don't people going how do you feel about this like it's it's there's so much talent in this league and
50:08
there's a lot of bad teams you know like how each each oh yeah no I don't like that each team gets a guy like I don't
50:15
no you just pick the best players in the league the ones that deserve the All-Star Game the most yeah but also
50:21
it's just you're making this gills competition so much worse by limiting
50:26
who's in true I think I think a lot of SK competition's had multiple issues
50:33
because yeah last year was bad last year's was horrible it was all over the place you had no idea what was actually
50:38
going on and it's just like half of it's all just like for show and it's not
50:43
actual like you'd get like the skilled ones and then you get like the show on
50:48
only show the only one that needs to be a show one is the Breakaway challenge yeah that's and we understand it's for
50:54
you know kind of you know the entertainment style we all like to with the kids in there and the you know the
51:00
they get the mascs for some of them or something um but then the rest of them we want to see like them
51:07
competing I don't know make it like a I don't know if they've have done this or like make it some like charity thing you
51:14
know or like race that could be something I think I think it'll be a lot quicker there she lost players but like
51:20
one of my favorite things was like seeing all the guys on like the bench yeah having a good time like their
51:26
children would be out there like we won't get that it only be like 12 guys
51:31
so I don't know I'm pretty sure none of these players that are participating have kids like you have Austin Matthews
51:40
William neander obviously you want the hometown guys in got those I'm fine with those Nathan McKinnon kale mcar Conor
51:48
McDavid Leon dry Sidle of course Conor mcdavid's in there Nikita COV Jack
51:53
Hughes David past and Elias Pon and then the last two are
51:59
supposed to be voted in I just can't imagine Crosby not being
52:04
I is there no goalie skills at all they probably every goalie probably
52:12
I don't know maybe two I know I just thought there used to be like the little save streak or something save streak was
52:18
like kind of replac the Breakaway challenge for a bit but I mean I think it was still pretty good I don't know
52:24
the goali in there I think a lot of these guys would rather be on a beach somewhere rather than Toronto was who was the oneor yeah York
52:32
Shan he like you just watch him he's like a crap I now like I don't even
52:38
think the NHL players they just see it as like a extra Duty you have to you're
52:44
stuck on this now like cuz it's just so I don't know it's so it just seems so pointless it's but like it's not as bad
52:51
as the NFL's uh Pro now which is just atrocious used to be cool but it's it's
52:57
kind of getting there you know it's not which is really disappointing CU I like said last week like I love I think the
53:02
allar game is fun I want it to be more fun I want them to have it fixed because I think it's a great fun weekend of
53:09
hockey mening the NFL shout out to my Raiders Antonio Fierce re love that move
53:15
that that was a good move I think that's a good move for them I was going to re my Raiders uh shirt but how do you how
53:21
do you cheer for the Raiders it's tough man that come from it's my dad okay yeah I just kind of grew up with it but yeah
53:27
you got to be careful about that around here in Pittsburgh we're not big we're not big Raiders fans um I mean they've
53:34
kind of stunk lately so we don't really care now lately last 20 plus years yep
53:40
they haven't want a playoff game in my lifetime that's rough that's rough yeah
53:46
vo in Clos they should be announcing those last two I would assume today hopefully
53:53
but yeah it's an what was I going to say oh one thing that I was glad that they brought back
53:59
was the draft that part is good if you have a fun draft a consistent allar
54:05
skills where everyone is participating not just 12 people then and obviously the game is a
54:13
little me because no one really tries then you could have a really fun weekend
54:18
but I do like the three on three I think that's good obviously if you're doing three on three you got to split it up by
54:24
um well I guess they've been doing it by division now it's going to be their drafted style think the winning team get
54:32
like a million dollars I think it's like the all it's like the MVP on no the
54:38
winning team does win money but the MVP usually gets a car each player gets a million dollars I think they split it I
54:45
think it's like split so I mean they're really not getting I mean it's still a good chunk of change you know any normal
54:52
person who knows they could also all collectively ree like if we win we're going to donate this million dollars
54:57
yeah they might do that too if you're a rookie contract if they can leag minimum that's not it's not bad no no you're
55:03
probably trying a little extra harder out there yeah if Bard you know was healthy and was out there you know I'm sure Bard would you know trying a little
55:10
harder out there [ __ ] D probably would still have a lot of fun at the All-Star game like being around all those
55:16
incredible players and also he's already skating again because he cannot stay off
55:22
the ice well there I my theory is they're trying to push him to come back for this All-Star game really that's
55:28
what I think I mean look look at how they've treated him this year even if I he is the Golden Boy I mean deserving
55:35
but he's all over the media every single thing I don't know if they are pushing him cuz like I saw something where like
55:43
Nick Felino was told he needs to help keep Bard off the ice because he wanted to get back on so badly because of his
55:49
injury he needs to sit around even if he can't participate in the game for him just to be there I think would be a big
55:55
deal for the NHL cuz he's like the next he's like the next guy that's why they I think they want him out there that badly
56:03
to get that viewership up because I mean honestly not that many people watch the allstar game no and it's carried by you
56:11
mean oh yeah that's another way you make the the allstar game better give it to TNT yeah give it to TNT yeah we need Biz
56:16
out there running the show biz needs to be out B you put Biz there Biz and Pat mcfey at the
56:22
allstar game oh my gosh could you imagine Biz and Pat mcafe drafting their teams they should yeah be well I don't
56:30
know about that I would I wouldn't put Pat in front in charge of a team they're doing like so how they're doing it is
56:36
there's a captain and then there's a celebrity Captain because the celebrity coach probably more like Co Captain
56:43
coach they're not out there McAfee is a celebrity Captain I don't I don't really like the celebrity style of the captain
56:51
so far what we have I think it should be like former like Hall of Famers coming
56:56
back also I just want Pat McAfee at the All-Star game like I said last week like if you had um you know I think they've
57:02
done it before a little bit like Gretzky you know in charge of like a team he was like he did something I
57:10
remember in the LA allstar game torella was supposed to be the Metro coach but
57:16
oh and that's what he did it was yeah but he couldn't make it cuz he had like a family emergency grety grety stepped in but they should like something like
57:23
that though like you get um bror is one or then you get uh you know Lemieux and
57:30
some of the other just Legends bring them back and have them coach I think you know especially for like the older
57:35
fan base I would kind of get them involved more to kind of see them a little bit um you know some of their
57:41
favorites as they were Legends skills competition that too that would be great make one because they have an event they
57:47
do for the women's yeah they bring some of the they're going to have a three on three thing yeah so they should have a they
57:54
should have like you know a couple like Legends yeah not anything crazy like not like fastest skater maybe just like one
58:00
event you know like shooting no I love her no I'm sorry no but no they should
58:08
have like a like you know they could do like the accuracy shooting for some of them that you know maybe retired you
58:14
know like a few years ago you bring back uh you know like Joe Thorton and um I
58:20
don't know just some of the other ones like been out for a few years but still have it Bur you know oh yeah on yeah you
58:27
know maybe bring him like next year or something or maybe maybe he just comes back that that would be so fun I say if
58:32
they did that they'd have to be at least have been retired for one season yeah reti not like immediate not coming back
58:39
next year maybe but I don't even know if they're having an All-Star game next year because of that like World tournament they're talking about oh is
58:46
it like the I'd much rather have that than when they have like the North America and like team Europe World World
58:52
Cup hocky here's the thing what I've heard so far from that is that it's just
58:57
us Canada Sweden and Finland well that's dumb
59:03
exactly bring the Russians in well they're at War so they're like not allowed to do anything but then
59:09
everybody can like fight but the Russians are they're they're good they have good hockey players I mean like
59:16
this this could be ob's last chance to play onkin but he's like the Russian players like nobody's blaming them for that so
59:22
don't punish coo isn't coo yeah Covan vzy eore they got guys you know I
59:30
mean there's plenty of them soken like all these all these guys um you know
59:36
that are I mean they've been here for how long some of them too you know to now all of a sudden exclude them because
59:42
of you know what they're I mean politics but what they're you know high no
59:48
relation to that that's you know yeah they they've done a lot for the league oh yeah yeah they've I mean
59:55
they've malan like we had to smuggle him out of that place you know it's like it's not even like he's you know I mean
1:00:02
he's played for them and stuff but it's you know it's not like he's always been like this you know Patriot for Russia or
1:00:09
something you know it's I mean all all of them are patriots for Russia you look at artmi panan yeah that's another one
1:00:16
right there obviously not no so it's like don't punish the players let them play cuz we all want to see good hockey
1:00:22
competition out there we just listed off like some of the top names in hockey right there I mean that real quick
1:00:27
there's so many other ones too so many other ones like to not have them in that competition that's not a best on best
1:00:33
then if you're excluding Russia that would stink you're just giving all the Russian players a vacation and also the
1:00:40
checks and the slovakians like if they want to do this thing like with NHL players only they should still have like
1:00:47
a team Europe for like those countries that don't have enough NHL players make a full team team Europe and then
1:00:53
remember they did a which team Europe was a little different in 2016 because it was like team Europe
1:00:59
and team North America were the I think it was 23 and under yeah was 23 and under they had uh they I think they had
1:01:06
Matthews McDavid oh yeah team they were stacked they had all those young stars
1:01:12
coming up I'd like to see that again too them do um I mean make it like a eight
1:01:19
team you know competition not four you know we want to see we want see everybody out
1:01:25
there I don't either give me more teams or just don't do it at all cuz then
1:01:32
we're probably not gonna have an allstar game next year if they do that that's fine they break from it you know I could
1:01:37
use a break from it yeah I just really wanted to come to Pittsburgh too I know I know but sometimes you just gotta I
1:01:45
don't know take a break from it try something else out you know I think this would be more exci especially if you
1:01:50
make it a you know every four years type of thing yeah yeah but like does that mean we're never going to the Olympics
1:01:56
again well you have that and then you have the Olympics too so you know the Olympics are supposed to be the next
1:02:02
year after that then Batman's got to find a way to figure that out yeah you got to get to the Olympic so I I don't
1:02:08
know that's I mean so either give me this with more teams and no Olympics or
1:02:14
I'd rather watch these like tournaments and stuff the allstar games honestly the allstar game like a once
1:02:22
every four years kind of thing every four years I don't I don't you know what I mean though but like not every year I
1:02:29
mean like it's just seeing McDavid like McKinnon Crosby like all
1:02:35
these guys participate in the Olympics I mean we don't get the goals and goal if there's no like players in the NHL
1:02:42
players in the Olympics like these are Big moments in hockey yeah y or even
1:02:48
just maybe change up the All-Star game one thing I mean cuz you got to think about
1:02:54
about it like I guess you would still have the injury issue a little bit but maybe put the All-Star game as like at
1:03:00
the end of the season where like the draft is and like a little celebration right before the draft because then you
1:03:06
don't have all the mid-season injuries you don't have teams you know having guys sit out because they don't want to
1:03:12
you know they want to you know use those rest days in between like when they're making that run you know if I'm being
1:03:18
honest I don't even want Crosby to go I want him to R yeah you get you know get
1:03:23
get ready for final stretch of the Season where're trying to make a playoff push well he'll just have to play for that um I don't need I don't need anyone
1:03:30
getting hurt on my team in the allar game yeah I mean and they're not likely to get hurt you have a fluke you know
1:03:37
yeah you never know you know accidentally tripping a weird way or something and hit the boards it's just
1:03:43
freak stuff can happen yeah you just rather have that I'd rather see that more you know not I wouldn't rather see
1:03:49
people injured but you know rather that be at the like in the you know the off season where they have plenty of time to
1:03:55
recover then midseason like oh you know cuz they're all superstars There Goes My Superstars we're in you know a playoff
1:04:02
race here and yeah that'd be that would be a crazy either they do back toback
1:04:08
weekends or like a whole week they just play the allar game the same place as
1:04:13
the draft which that might not work now because I think they're supposed to decentralize the draft and make it like
1:04:19
NL draft so who knows there goes that plan but they also already like the NHL
1:04:25
awards that happen well you can still have it at the draft location because
1:04:30
like the NFL they just don't have their people there you know what I mean like
1:04:36
the like the teams are all at their own location but they have the like the top picks you know are back in that room and
1:04:43
then they come out on the stage and all the fans are there for them you just make it that style and then you know you
1:04:50
could still have all the events in town too cuz then it's you know it's there for the fans and everything for the them to go watch yeah all right
1:04:59
well moving on to other things you really expanded that I got ideas yeah yeah we're just
1:05:06
trying to help out here yeah I just want them to do better that's yeah that's what we're trying to do we're not trying
1:05:12
to be like it's horrible get rid of it we're like no fix it I think we did say it's horrible okay you kind of did we
1:05:18
also gave ways to fix it too nicely we said say it very nicely I I can go I
1:05:26
can and watchable okay so the
1:05:31
leavs I don't oh issues I was completely reading this wrong in the game notes whoever typed this was it you yeah it's
1:05:38
probably me if you can't read it I didn't type no I just I like skipped over the whole word so I just read Leafs
1:05:44
or R like no they're not it says Leafs issues are rising so you know they Mr
1:05:51
you also like the leaves yes I do like the leaves um they I'm just where's where's the Blue Line man yeah Leafs let
1:06:00
me put it this way I'm a Leafs fan because of Austin Matthews and also William nander I love that guy he's
1:06:06
great overpaid congratul no congratulations on the contract Willie Styles you absolutely deserve it oh but
1:06:15
uh he's holding your team hostage no the guy that's holding the team hostage is
1:06:20
Taris he gets paid too much M he's not that good he's over isn't is he a free agent this year or next year I think
1:06:26
it's next year none of those four guys like are trying like they're taking way too much money there's no they can't no
1:06:32
I'm not going to disagree with you that they have a salary cap issue that team is horrible at managing their money but
1:06:38
the two guy well the main three that deserve it are Matthews Marner and neander tarus is making too much money I
1:06:45
would say get rid of him he yeah I don't yeah I said it get rid of him but you look at this uh neander contract he's
1:06:53
making more than POS he's not a better player than poock and poock just signed poock signed his last year last year
1:07:00
Well inflation's been pretty high goes up quickly Cap's going up too
1:07:06
Cap's going up you know inflation hey I think the taxes might be a little higher in Toronto so you got to
1:07:12
get a little bit more that's that's a very good point that is a very good point that does have a factor does it really does I mean I don't know playing
1:07:19
in Florida and Vegas there's no uh there's no tax so you know but uh yeah like what is he actually making Canadian
1:07:25
dollars I don't know I don't know that math I I would know math at all I think I like saw something like if he was
1:07:32
making 9 million in Florida it would be the same yeah it would be the same yeah see that's that
1:07:37
that's like the thing you know you got to kind of take into account but Leaf's got to figure out the goal tending I
1:07:43
mean they've had injuries too so that doesn't help but it's like the guys that you do have you gota you got to defend
1:07:50
the net Sam sonof I thought was going to be good and was horrendous this year
1:07:55
he's back up here now after you know going down to the AHL for like a couple games so I don't really
1:08:01
know what that did but Morton Jones has been actually pretty decent he's serviceable yeah he's not not great but
1:08:08
for what they're going through right now it's kind of the best you got um you
1:08:14
know but I mean just overall they're not I mean let me pull it up here they put up a lot of points but
1:08:22
they also give up a lot of points and that's kind of their do you think Sheldon Keefe is on a hot seat yeah he's
1:08:27
calling out the guys I mean I'd get rid of them I thought they were going to get
1:08:33
rid of him I thought I mean look he can't I mean they they finally got their first round win then they lost the next
1:08:40
one spanked Florida um and it's just like you have this year after year you
1:08:47
have the star studded lineup and it just doesn't doesn't do much and if like looking at the points
1:08:53
here it is really kind of as you would expect topheavy neander with 59 Matthews with
1:09:00
54 Marner with 48 uh Morgan Riley with 35 and then
1:09:08
fifth out of those top five like I said John Taris with 34 who is I not worth
1:09:14
his contract in my opinion Max doy is actually doing decent he's got 23 points but you can see the
1:09:21
drop off after the top five it goes from mid-30s all the way down to low 20s and
1:09:27
everybody else is 20 and under with points Tyler bzi hasn't done much he's got 19 points Matthew n was supposed to
1:09:35
be better he's only got 17 Nick Robertson um he's doing okay he
1:09:41
came back a little bit late because he was down in the AHL for a little while
1:09:47
he's got 12 points in 26 games so not bad I'd like to see him do a little bit more but
1:09:55
they just I mean they're just not doing yeah not and then when neander he got up I think he
1:10:02
got two points or a point last night but before that they the least r a four game
1:10:07
losing streak and Ne had no points in those four games which is surprising because he's gotten points in almost
1:10:15
every single game so far this year I mean he's at a 1.37 points per game
1:10:20
average I mean you know they slide for you know you just have a few games in
1:10:26
ask you can't ask for him to get a point every single game I mean you really can't yeah it's he's done so well I mean
1:10:33
there most of their top guys too are you know positive you know plus minus um the
1:10:39
only one that's not John Taris again minus four you know really he's really hard on T I am I'm sorry out of the top
1:10:48
their top 12 guys here he's the only one that's minus on the plus minus wow and
1:10:53
then you go down all the way to Noah Gregor who I think does a lot of penalty kill work um and it's actually been a
1:11:00
really good like fourth line guy for he's got nine points in 42 games which
1:11:06
isn't much but from what you know they come at timely you know moments in the
1:11:11
game and he he does help out so I I have liked him even though he's it doesn't show it on the score
1:11:17
sheet but no I I I think that's that's your one you got to move on from yeah
1:11:24
I mean hey he's their Captain he's supposed to be leading them you know further on you know in the playoffs and
1:11:30
stuff he's supposed to be that veteran guy that does that and it hasn't happened he did clutch up against Tampa though he did do that he did finally
1:11:38
started doing making the money he's making he's got to do more he's got to do more it's just it's like that's what
1:11:45
he supposed to do and he finally did it once after like realistically he's like
1:11:50
a85 million type player right now that's how he's play playing you'd say yeah I'd say me extra 3 million in cat space that
1:11:57
could do a lot for you right now mhm I mean what's what does he get yeah it's like 11 something right yeah but you
1:12:04
know the Leafs they have they have the star Town there's no doubt about that you know Matthews who he get he got a
1:12:11
hatrick last night was it 37 goals he has I think he has the other night I think it's right around that yep love
1:12:17
another hatrick from him cuz I'm playing you in fantasy this week you 37 gos might get 70 which would
1:12:25
be insane like I don't I don't think he's healthy he gets that I don't think like Matthew's getting enough attention
1:12:30
for what he's doing right now oh no no I think it's heing because the way that the media works with Toronto all the
1:12:37
attention's been on neander lately and all the attention has been on like the issues that that too and he's just kind
1:12:43
of yeah I'm Los doing great right now yep yeah winning by like 15 points or
1:12:49
something but yeah no he's Matthews 2 is a you know a plus nine right now he's
1:12:55
done really well defensively this year too um tons of goals again you know
1:13:00
leads the league he's you know doing what he's supposed to be doing just the rest of
1:13:07
the team besides those top four really really aren't pulling their
1:13:12
weight yeah so it's going to be interesting what Toronto does I don't quite know what they're to improve at
1:13:17
the deadline and then another Cana Canadian team well we're talking about a lot of Canadian teams right now yeah can
1:13:23
is doing some things the Jets are just a complete wagon of a team they're 17 and
1:13:28
four in their last 21 games they just got Kyle Conor back and that's
1:13:35
hug he has 18 goals and like we said Conor hellu just and HCK yeah it's been
1:13:40
unbelievable insane uh 2.19 goals against average 925
1:13:47
save percentage I mean you're going to be winning games playing like that he's the type two that he knows how to get
1:13:52
wins which I think you know gets overlooked in the goalie stats sometimes
1:13:58
mhm he I mean you look at his wins cuz his goals against and save percentage is
1:14:03
right there with uh brat I think I don't know how you say his name bris bris um
1:14:10
they're almost even in those two other stats but huk got you know 22
1:14:18
wins and like a thing right now in the NHL like he's played more too but still
1:14:23
like putting up that amount of wins is a lot right now in the NHL like there's a lot of teams that are like hesitant to
1:14:29
like pay goalies upwards of 5 million because you got to build out a roster
1:14:35
but if you have a guy like hu you pay him cuz he can win you game single-handedly MH so and they did pay
1:14:42
him andet working out in Winnipeg and now they've been right on that one I think they're number one in the NHL
1:14:47
points right it's either them or Vancouver they're right there because like I said earlier we
1:14:55
don't know who's going to finish yeah they're number one in point percentage oh they they got Point percent okay yeah
1:15:01
yeah Vancouver currently leads the league with 64 points then Boston's right next to them 63 wiip Peg's got 62
1:15:09
Colorado 61 so the leading Metro team is actually the fifth in the league and that is the
1:15:17
Rangers I hate the Rangers are still making the playoffs Jake they're gonna make the playoffs they fall off they
1:15:23
won't they won't they got that goalie tandem is too good and they're power play speaking of Canada we said earlier
1:15:29
too the Oilers are on a they're on a heater long wind streak that I want to
1:15:34
end mhm but it's not going to happen yeah mcdavid's what do they play
1:15:40
next uh they're probably playing tonight I would
1:15:46
assume so they are playing oh they're playing the Flames tonight got Battle of
1:15:52
Alberto speaking of the Flames they've been better as of late yeah they're also they're seven like we also said they're
1:15:58
fighting for a playoff spot right in the mix who do they're right in the mix but I don't know if they're going to sell
1:16:04
off it's going to be interesting you know I feel like March 8th is kind of a late
1:16:09
deadline I like it late though cuz you works out for our live stream it does
1:16:15
and you kind of like know at that point like what your team is and what you really need and which I think is what it's
1:16:22
supposed to be you want to know if you're a buyer or a seller at that point you don't want to kind of be on the bubble like I don't know what we should
1:16:28
do it's kind of like NFL it's deadin so early in the year that teams don't know
1:16:34
what their situation is yet I don't like trade deadlines in February and the and the race is right now so we don't have
1:16:39
many answers on like which teams are going to be there at the end MH so I think that's good that you know it's
1:16:45
late and it's probably going to the standings are probably going to look more clear yeah a little by the time in
1:16:50
March so you'll you have more of an answer what what you need to do and what DUIs needs to do with Jake
1:16:58
gunel I don't see I don't what's your take on that guno I
1:17:04
mean you got to see what the penguins are doing I I mean if you're in the race you can't trade them you know no you
1:17:10
can't what you gave the core you said we're all in and you you gave them that you you bet on
1:17:17
them and it's not like the cor is not producing that they're once again putting the team on their back so no is
1:17:25
part of that core too I mean if they slip you know then you maybe question it
1:17:31
but I mean then you kind of question the whole thing because you trade him what
1:17:36
are you going to get you're going to probably get some high-end draft picks and stuff that you're not going to see for another you know two to three years
1:17:44
by kind of by that point your cores just about done at that point so it's not really going to you know support them in
1:17:51
that in that role so unless you're getting prospects that are about to break out right now yeah if yeah if you're
1:17:59
trading against cross's on his last year of his contract next year and if you're trading gunil that pretty much submits
1:18:06
that the penguins are pretty much done for the next five years and they're going to head to a re towards a rebuild yeah so which I think is going to take
1:18:13
more than five years to be honest yeah they don't have M there's it's it's
1:18:19
pretty it's going to be a very hard Mis rebuild dark times are ahead
1:18:25
unfortunately yeah I mean I don't always see them consistently being at like the bottom depending on what they you know
1:18:33
get rid of cuz our goal ending is always good and we have some good goalies actually coming up yeah we do but
1:18:41
besides that we don't have much coming up you know but it depends on who you
1:18:46
want to keep and who you're you know getting rid of I like keeping get a
1:18:52
longterm I think too especially you look at it at the other side of the rebuild you have
1:18:57
that one guy that's been here for a long time you know he was the mentee to
1:19:03
Sydney Crosby he can kind of take it to the next Generation coming up I'm sure like and he's got the cups you know
1:19:10
under his belt you know you kind of want that guy still staying in the building and everything yeah I'm sure Gil's
1:19:16
having those discussions with dubis I'm like hey like what is this team going to look like when crossby Mock and the
1:19:22
Tanger like do I really want to do I really want to do that mhm know if he's making 10 million maybe he does want to
1:19:28
do that you know I don't know if we well when they're all gone we can we're not going to have anybody else pay
1:19:34
I I think he's asking for ton I mean if Nan's getting 11.5 I think
1:19:40
he's asking for 10 I could see him getting like nine that's what we saw last week I think I I
1:19:46
see 10 C 10's a little high for him yeah but he's a great because I mean the
1:19:53
other thing too is then then you question it with Jake the other way to look at it is like okay Crosby's done
1:20:00
let's say two or three years you're giving Jake a long-term deal maybe with
1:20:05
that nine or 10 what's he going to look like those last five without him yeah
1:20:10
you know is he actually GNA be that good because his entire career here and he's
1:20:15
been great but you're playing with Sydney Crosby as your you mentioned is
1:20:21
it GNA as your line what's he going to do I don't think it really matter at that point cuz the Penguins they
1:20:26
probably won't be competing for to sign players or so I don't think maybe the 10
1:20:32
million matters but if you're looking to trade Gil a like you say you extend him
1:20:37
you have him for the three years or two years that we compete or our window is then you can probably look to trade them
1:20:44
and like maybe retain some of that salary yeah you can do that afterwards you know maybe you only sign them to
1:20:50
three or four years here and then you see where you're at there you know I don't know if I would do a it's going to
1:20:56
be really interesting to see long longterm deal with gzel I don't think that's the I wouldn't do that with
1:21:02
anybody right now actually a little bit of a bridge deal but I think he's GNA want eight years cuz he probably will
1:21:08
yeah I because it's guaranteed yeah and it's hard to get on the I don't think I
1:21:14
think you can only get eight years if you stay with your team when and when you go to free agency it's only seven
1:21:21
and the and he's not in that 10 million when he's like 35 or whatever
1:21:27
you know true that extra year is pretty big cuz how old is he now 29 29 yeah so
1:21:32
he'd be like 37 about depending on his he did eight year yeah I mean 37y old
1:21:40
Jake gunel coming down the wing I can't think about that 40 with 50-year old Jeff already blowing my mind he's 29
1:21:47
like it was just yesterday I was watching his NHL debut
1:21:53
yeah it's crazy oh I remember that night vividly yeah but uh a team and player
1:22:00
that's going to have a big second half of the year what do you think oh it's G to have a big second
1:22:08
half um oh we're going overall okay um I mean throughout the entire league you're
1:22:13
talking or you're talking Penguins League entire league you can fix the Penguins
1:22:20
T I mean that that
1:22:25
can this be somebody that's already doing good or yeah okay okay I'm trying to figure out the parameters around this there's something there's so many
1:22:32
options um I think Oilers continue to have a big
1:22:38
second half oers I could see that yeah that was um player
1:22:44
though I want to say I want to say somebody from New
1:22:50
Jersey continues to they they they're starting to turn around a little bit I think yeah they just need to get healthy
1:22:56
too that too that too maybe uh maybe Teo Meer figures it out and starts uh starts
1:23:03
tearing it up here I mean he's kind of been quiet he's been under the microscope for the kind of money he's
1:23:08
getting maybe out there cuz I mean team's starting to do a little bit better but he's he could be one that
1:23:15
turns it around you for me I see the lightning solidifying a spot in the
1:23:20
playoffs obviously cure has been a complete dog this year he's been great
1:23:25
and a player for me I look at I'm now just realizing I'm
1:23:32
sorry to interrupt the gap between where McDavid is and where COV is in points
1:23:38
yeah since what is it COV has 75 McDavid has 59 McDavid yeah he did miss some time
1:23:45
well yeah true but it's Conor McDavid so he didn't he only miss like three games
1:23:51
though and like he and I didn't realize how bad
1:23:56
team o Meer is this year though looking at it he's a minus 18 and a player I picked the who do I
1:24:02
pick the team I can't believe I forgot I know I don't know about him player will
1:24:08
I picked the lightning to have a big second half of the year I think Elias Pon will and then the player for me
1:24:14
Matthew kachuck uh he only has 12 goals in 45 games so I think he really starts to get
1:24:22
going in Florida I think he's a little overrated really yep I think he don't
1:24:27
get meong he was hot he's got 100 points the last two
1:24:33
seasons I think has he 100 points okay but I don't know I just
1:24:41
don't see it I think he's he's got a down year this year yeah in my opinion probably could partially be like I mean
1:24:47
other guys in Florida tired from yeah I mean he did great last year
1:24:53
play he did come off some injuries too he was playing on a broken sternum in the final and tough dude I like him I
1:25:00
like him all I think just this year and other guys in Florida you look at Sam Reinhardt you know 33 goals this year
1:25:06
like he's stepping up he's been he's another one I so the goals are I think he'll continue so the goals are coming from other guys in kachak but you get
1:25:14
kachak going and him starting to score goals that's going to be a Difference Maker and it's not like he's 45 games
1:25:22
he's got 43 points not like he's been not good I mean he's obviously he's a
1:25:28
physical player and a guy you don't really want to go against so those are my two
1:25:33
picks I'm gonna take it to a goalie though of course I think is gonna really kind of turn it around a little bit they
1:25:39
already doing good no no I mean yes Ingram will continue to do good but uh I
1:25:45
think eagor going to start getting a little bit better Rangers been slipping a little bit quick was kind of covering
1:25:50
them for there but I think I think eagor is going to be coming back
1:25:56
eor we I was at that game that was I I like eore as a goal which game the that
1:26:02
playoff one where we it yeah that was my first time ever in F was it oh yeah that
1:26:07
was that was a great game what a coincidence but um I mean obviously that one I had to
1:26:13
cheer against him but I kind of followed him coming up a little bit and predicted him being very good goalie did Megan can
1:26:19
attest to it there's been a few others too but uh peeka yep Uka who's the other one uh I said cokin too not as good but
1:26:28
damn you got an eye for go I do I have like a I have a whole list I won't do it today but I've you gotta show that to do
1:26:35
this I have my uh I have my list of top Coes prob for the Y scouting job I could
1:26:41
I mean I don't think they have much but I think I think eor is gonna
1:26:48
start doing even better now and get hot I think that's one
1:26:54
yeah all right we ready to move on to Puck and deep yeah we can do that it's time for this week's Puck and deep which
1:26:59
is if you could pick any NHL player to play you in a
1:27:05
movie who would it be I oh I think I get to go first here yeah
1:27:10
you're the guest Megan knows my uh absolute favorite player in the league
1:27:15
who I honestly believe is like my you know we're connected through this you know somehow so similar is Austin
1:27:23
Matthews Austin Matthews first off both of us are part Mexican both from our
1:27:30
Mexican Mothers so shout out to Mom hi Mom hi Mom you know I play forward a
1:27:37
little bit of Center little in De hocky in I'm sorry I can't it's deck hocky I can't skate yeah he can't but my style
1:27:46
is a wrist shot his style is a wrist shot you know he's got a great mustache I like sometimes grow out that great
1:27:53
mustache you know even if doesn't agree say so you're saying if you put on the skates you're you're NHL
1:27:58
player uh no no not without the skates we're we're a little bit better can't uh
1:28:04
can't skate no but you know got the same background the kind of same play style
1:28:11
you know two-way a little bit but shot is the wrist shot you know I don't I don't really take many slap shots but um
1:28:19
that's you know we're we're s very similar in that way I think he's great and you know so that that would be who I
1:28:26
want playing me in a movie it be very honored uh I think we all know the answer for me I want Sid playing myself
1:28:33
in a movie uh you know obviously the Hat you know this is Sid hat you look like them
1:28:40
people say I look like Sid I I think that's a compliment honestly and for the most part
1:28:46
yeah yeah I mean s just a great guy overall he's a he does a lot for the community you know he's he's a leader
1:28:52
and he's a great captain and yeah that's what want can't go wrong with that yeah obviously I can't participate in this
1:28:58
pux and deep but you could pick somebody there's G to be I'm not a man but I'm here to represent Nick for his option
1:29:05
Nick shimo yeah or beloved Nick who could not make it today he's day today
1:29:11
he's not day to day he just had to go home um he actually picked someone who's a former NHL player uh Nathan
1:29:19
gerby who you probably haven't heard of him he's a lower end but oh my gosh I
1:29:25
can't get that that's I'm surprised he didn't pick Phil Castle to be honest I kind of thought he would have picked pH
1:29:30
castle that could be Nick's honorable mention for us didn't you have honorable mentions you wanted to say for you
1:29:38
um no not really um probably McKinnon for me McKinnon mention no why cuz
1:29:47
you're not blonde I didn't really put that in consideration I
1:29:53
guess I don't know uh you don't have to have an on I don't think I have one I think one that would work for you Megan
1:30:01
oh would be um is it Ryan Graves has like the real long flow hair he's tall
1:30:08
like a female yeah besides the height besides the height um you know honestly
1:30:14
every time his picture pops up like somewhere I really do think it's a female um and I'm just like that that
1:30:21
looks weird have to pick a pwhl player probably but that that would take some time cuz I don't know everyone in the P
1:30:28
WHL you should pick Amanda kessle cuz both of you have awesome amazing Brothers see I can see it that that
1:30:34
would be yours a man yeah see what I'm saying oh my gosh graes Megan that's
1:30:40
your selection okay sure go with that this one especially
1:30:47
this one right here this one there it is oh no can you turn that around for the
1:30:53
people well I'll put I'll edit in it okay we we I don't know how because I tried editing in the pictures of Winter
1:30:58
Classic jerseys last week and my storage decided to be a little fussy a little he
1:31:03
looks like it's personal with me and him we go
1:31:10
back did you I really hope the camera did that I don't care that's all I feel
1:31:15
I care but um oh maybe maybe another you
1:31:21
know in a in a different way um my least likely for me or you no for me it would
1:31:28
be uh flurry because we have very different Rel relationships with the post I hate the post oh yes tell the
1:31:35
people about the post I have a knack for hitting the post very good at it do you
1:31:40
smack your stick on the post yeah sometimes um I I don't know I just it's
1:31:46
like a magnet I I always to post really not trying to he does it in Deck Hockey
1:31:51
games he will do it in video games it just I can't escape it I always post a lot but flurry you know on the other
1:31:58
hand loves it when you hit the post and you know you know gives a little nice little Pat or kiss and you know I love
1:32:04
FL relationship with his post so cute I really didn't think about the question that way uh I don't even know
1:32:12
you could change still I could not pick one for me cuz
1:32:17
probably probably eigor that' be the last guy I want playing my I hate for eigor eigor so least likely for me
1:32:24
basically ever win the NHL I don't know we could you guys pick
1:32:30
my least likely since you picked my least likely I got I had two most likelies for you what was the other one
1:32:36
Amanda Kastle oh yeah they both have amazing brothers You're ego I'm not
1:32:44
wrong I look nothing like Amanda Castle though but they have all they amazing
1:32:49
Brothers yeah that's that's the factor that goes into that okay okay
1:32:55
what no whatever I wish mine could be Phil Kastle I don't I don't think I I'm
1:33:01
even worthy of that though Phil too good Nick deserves it that that would be his
1:33:06
I'm the same height as Kendall coin at least yeah that's all I got I don't know
1:33:12
who that is do you remember the L the girl who skated in the allar oh it was
1:33:17
the F the fastest one yeah okay I remember her okay she's 5'2 I'm 5'2 ah
1:33:25
