uh chirp four is lenus lenus alar got
0:03
hurt recently he's back now but has
0:05
Jeremy Swan proven he can handle the
0:07
workload of a number one goalie and are
0:10
you okay with that giving him the deal
0:12
he's going to deserve and moving on with
0:14
him yes I am yes yes and yes and yes and
0:17
yes I think he's still young he's uh I
0:21
saw somebody tweet out the other day um
0:25
Jeremy Swan's first whatever 100 games
0:28
or 75 games and Martin brador's first
0:31
100 games did you see this and flurry's
0:35
first 100 games but I'm so excited about
0:37
it Swan is extremely favorable really
0:41
compared to two of the all-time greats
0:44
uh yeah and their first 100 games now
0:47
granted you know defensive structure and
0:50
you know the way the league is now the
0:52
way it was then go that whole thing is
0:54
different um but
0:57
he's no one else has done it no yeah
1:03
so I I think he can do it I mean they
1:07
played him five in a row I believe when
1:09
all Mark went out and he acquitted
1:12
himself pretty well yeah um you know
1:15
whether that can last over a whole
1:17
season the only way that you will know
1:19
that is if he does it right so um you
1:23
know and I don't have any problem with
1:25
Brandon busy being a backup that plays
1:27
you know 25 games uh and and Swan gets
1:31
the rest so I I think you know after
1:35
this year I think you're looking to move
1:36
on from allmark to save a little bit of
1:38
money there you're paying Swan his you
1:41
know six times six or whatever it is and
1:43
bringing busty in on a short you know
1:45
money deal and saving some cap room and
1:49
and you know having sing be a guy I mean
1:52
there's no reason that he couldn't do it
1:54
when you know Conor H Buck's doing it
1:56
and there's other guys around the league
1:58
that that can do it so
2:00
I feel like he's uh he's
2:03
definitely um kind of shown that uh it
2:07
might be his time now I think you can
2:10
you can you can probably keep the two of
2:13
them through next season sure you could
2:15
you can but is that a smart thing to do
2:18
because you're going to end up losing
2:19
all Mark in free agency for nothing if
2:23
that is it
2:25
is deal them in the offseason you deal
2:28
him in the offseason yes without a doubt
2:31
I don't think there's any any chance you
2:33
don't yeah I mean if you want to get a
2:35
return for the guy I mean there's so
2:37
many teams around the league that need
2:39
goal tending like why I I don't
2:42
understand why you wouldn't entertain it
2:45
I mean I I understand that you're in
2:47
love with this Tandem and they hug each
2:49
other and everybody loves each other and
2:51
that's great and they both play really
2:53
well and they're both together one of
2:57
the huge reasons that this team is where
3:00
they are right now I understand all that
3:02
but you're if if you have faith in
3:05
Jeremy Swan then you can you you think
3:08
that he should be able to do this over a
3:11
larger sample sample size right and and
3:14
Brandon busy or Mike be DPO both of
3:18
those guys are having pretty good years
3:19
down in the AHL so one of those guys
3:22
playing 20s something games in this
3:24
system I think would be fine you might
3:27
not get the level that you're getting
3:29
with the two guys you have now but a
3:31
really really good Germany sing and one
3:33
of those guys is a backup and then you
3:35
save yourself a couple million bucks and
3:37
are able to go out and get you know
3:40
another top nine forward that can score
3:44
or you know a slightly better defenseman
3:46
on the back end because you can pay him
3:48
three or four million instead of two
3:50
million you know that's a win in my
3:52
opinion so I I feel like you have to
3:56
consider dealing all Mark after the
3:58
after the season's over to get some kind
4:00
of return for him it it would be not to
4:03
it would be malpractice not to and I
4:05
think that if he does well in the
4:08
playoffs like if they rotate the goalies
4:10
he does well that's the best case
4:12
scenario if he doesn't do well if he if
4:15
he has a third year in a row where he
4:17
kind of you know has a clunker that's
4:20
gonna make it that's that then you
4:22
really have to question the value of him
4:25
more so that that's what I'm concerned
4:27
about is that he's gota he's gotta play
4:32
well um this off this postseason Al mark
4:37
because then you can sell fairly high on
4:39
them and say okay this guy's legitimate
4:41
number one in in a team like who I don't
4:44
name one Edmonton Colorado whoever like
4:47
teams that really have a good team but
4:50
goal tending might be holding them back
4:52
or some team that falls in their face
4:53
because of their goal tending New Jersey
4:56
devils devils perfect example like
4:59
Carolina
5:00
has bunch of
5:01
injuries I mean there's teams out there
5:03
that would be looking for
5:06
goalies especially if he backs up you
5:09
know a VZ a season with another really
5:11
good season this year and then like you
5:13
said performs in the playoffs right you
5:15
know the Bruins win a round or two you
5:17
know I feel like that's the time you
5:20
know sell High um so yeah I I kind of
5:24
feel like that's a no-brainer you know
5:26
so why do I feel like they're going to
5:27
keep him and they're just G lose
5:30
I just feel like they are because they
5:32
like to hug each other like you know
5:34
what I mean like I just feel like it's
5:36
the safe thing to do and and we'll lose
5:38
them after next season but we've got
5:40
busy and you know it's it's okay like
5:43
we're just GNA plug busy in so we're not
5:45
really losing much yeah you're losing a
5:48
a quality number one go tender for
5:50
nothing that's what you're doing that's
5:52
the thing yeah sure you keep him after
5:55
next year uh his money comes off the
5:58
books you know you have the money to
6:00
spend now and you plug busy in that's
6:02
great but you lose the chance to add
6:06
more value to your team especially
6:09
especially when you don't have any
6:12
goddamn draft picks because you already
6:14
gave them all away right so to to be
6:16
able to add maybe a first round pick I
6:19
don't know they can get a first round
6:20
for him or a second or a couple of
6:23
seconds whatever it is right any kind of
6:25
thing that you can add to that cover
6:28
that's Barren right now you need to
6:30
consider that so yes you do so they
6:33
really it's like a no-brainer in my
6:35
opinion that you that you entertain it
6:38
now if you can just if like a fifth is
6:40
the best you can do I don't think you do
6:41
it there's no value there right if you
6:43
can get you know a third and a second or
6:46
a couple of seconds or a second and a
6:48
player right you gotta you gotta you
6:51
gotta do it you gotta do it you got to
6:53
do it if you can get like like a quality
6:54
defenseman in a second or whatever I I
6:58
don't know just name something something
6:59
I don't know second and a third or
7:02
whatever yeah then I say two seconds
7:05
well whatever I then I yes then I do it
7:07
because you can a replenish your system
7:10
your drafting or you can get a guy that
7:13
you can use going forward so you know
7:16
that's uh that's that's a big deal so it
7:19
looks like right here on YouTube our uh
7:22
you know high-end producer put this into
7:24
perspective I flubbed this I was just
7:26
trying to share the screen earlier to
7:28
make it easy but it didn't work right so
7:30
I just pulled a clip of this but uh I
7:33
saw this this morning when I scrolled
7:35
through Twitter and it made me chuckle
7:37
because the New Jersey Devils are an
7:39
absolute dumpster fire in the standings
7:41
right now but because VTEC vanich plays
7:45
more than other
7:47
goenda this yo-yo Vinnie par if you
7:51
listen to this you're a yo-yo yeah is
7:53
bragging that vanich has more wins than
7:56
Jeremy Swan soken olar ottinger and V
7:59
aleski right now I was going to scroll
8:01
through the comments so you could giggle
8:03
at some of them but you won't be able to
8:04
see yeah I mean you could he plays more
8:06
so yeah
8:07
butt for last portion of the Year too
8:11
elar essentially play half half van has
8:15
a 328 goals against average and an 883
8:18
save percentage wow you can take that
8:20
and shove it up your [ __ ]
8:24
right I mean I picked the Devils to win
8:27
the cup in VTE vanage check is the
8:30
reason I will lose it like he's the
8:32
reason like that's not that's that sucks
8:35
I mean they need a goenda big time yeah
8:38
now I don't know if the Bruins would
8:39
trade El Mark to you know an Eastern
8:42
Conference Contender to make them better
8:44
yeah and their other goalie uh Nigel do
8:47
I believe Nico do
8:50
is seven3 with a three9 goals against
8:54
and a 903 save percentage in seven games
8:57
yeah so vanek's played 27 games that's
9:00
why he has 16 wins he's 16 seven and two
9:04
so falling apart with injuries and out
9:08
with the 88 save percentage get out of
9:10
here with that dusted times they played
9:13
them so um oh well five CHP five who
9:16
should be
