I'm a Leafs fan but I recently watched Melody Martin's channel (I'm not a Sabres fan but I honestly feel sad for her) and as a suggestion you should feature her in your podcast so she can talk about her thoughts on the Sabres.
I agree, she needs to be on. The only issue is she works during the time they record.
She's very good!
can agree with this, shes very good indeed
@@Waders27 I think they could make it work to fit with her schedule. As a Sabres fan myself (I know, condolences), she has come up with very cool ways to describe how the team has been, mostly through music instead of someone like Duane who goes on a rampage.
There’s no reason to have here on the podcast she’s doing it for fun she doesn’t have any sense of what they’re gonna do
Game ends, podcast immediately available
It’s always like that, either do the podcast live before the game or like I dunno do it directly after the game 😂
@@ThisIsSparta300 maybe bc they wanna watch the game so right after they post it 🤦♂️
Jesse really waited for the second the game ended to upload 😂
He's a smart man.
Maybe he was watching and when it was done he had time 🤦♂️
lets be honest
ITS ABOUT DAMN TIME
You forgot to mention one GM that would tear it up in the royal Rumble: Ron Hextall
Jesse's hair is slowly taking over his screen space 😂
I hope he rocks the full thing. I know he won't keep, but it is his only chance.
I can't wait for Galch's first goal, he has come so close. I love the hard work, the speed, the nose for the puck, he has hockey sense and loads of skill, Go Galch Go
What an amaaazing opening segment 🤣
(1 of 5) Commenting Every Podcast until Steve gets a Number 69 Leafs Dangle Jersey. Episode 69. Road to 69. I’d like to thank everyone that has been on this crusade with me. The support some of you have shown has really meant a lot to me.
(2 of 5) While some of you viewed this as a stupid immature waste of time. I saw it as a stupid immature way to reach the attention of 3 individuals who I highly look up to. To anybody still reading. I’d just like to say a few things.
(3 of 5) 1. Hockey is for everyone; it doesn’t matter the color of your skin, your gender identity, or if you’ve never wore a pair of skates. This is a game that I love and I’m so glad I found people who love it as much as me.
(4 of 5) 2. “I’m not ashamed to say I’m mentally ill, but that doesn’t mean mentally weak."
-Robin Lehner
(5 of 5) 3. “69, pick the number 69. It’s Hilarious” - Jay Baruchel (Goon)
Thank you Steve, Adam, and Jesse.
Thank you everyone.
Lol I remember when you started this in like July! 😂 good on you for doing it every episode 👍🏻
Rod "The Bod" takes the player fitness tests at training camp for fun... Man is a beast.
Steve, why do Buffalo need scouts when they don’t have draft picks😂
The only round they don't have a pick in is 2022 fifth round.
Corey perry has been very good for the habs, bumping byron and lehky off the roster isnt "barely making it for the habs" imo
Agreeeed (oil fan) I like these guys but damn sometimes their takes are uninformed. I guess that’s why I keep coming back to listen, it’s a unique perspective.
Corey Perry has more playoff experience than anyone else in contention in the North, and the leafs could play them first round... I’d be a little spooked, as an oil fan I’ve seen what that guy can pull off in the playoffs
Steve Yzerman would get screwed and draw 4th.
To the Boston announcers credit (from a Devils fan) the reason he says the last 20 seconds is because he noted that in initial call that gave the bruins the pp was a soft makeup up call. The whole thing is a mess and it's clear the nhl isn't making any changes to officiating
Yup yup yup. Turns out firing a ref that was just doing his job the way he was trained to like every other ref in the league didn’t solve the problem
You got me thinking about the Royal Rumble of GMs. So, being both a geek and a git, I did up a spreadsheet and made some calculations. Here are the results:
1. 14 of the 32 NHL GMs are what I classified as 'non-combatants'. They either did not make it to the NHL, or they didn't play hockey outside of high school or college. They finished out of the picture.
2. 15 of 32 NHL GMs are what I classified as 'combatants'. I took their NHL games played and their PIM accrued and created a ranking system for both. Their GP score was basically what percentage of the maximum number of NHL games played by one GM, and their PIM score was based on a ratio of their PIM per game versus the maximum value of PIM per game. I multiplied their GP score by twice their PIM score to create a final score.
3. 3 of 32 NHL GMs I classified as "whackadoodles". Two were goalies, one was a lawyer. I generated a score for them by multiplying the average final score from 2. above by a random integer between 0 and 3, and then divided by 1.5 to get their final scores.
Method: I ranked the 15 'combatants' along with only the highest score of the 'whackadoodles' and eliminated the bottom half of the scores at each level. At each subsequent level, I multiplied the original final score by a randomized number for that level, and then resorted, dropping the bottom half of each tier until we achieve a final winner.
Out in the first round:
* Sweeny, Adams, Treliving, Sakic, Kekkalainen, Fitzgerald, Wilson, Benning, Holland, and Brisebois.
Out in the Second Round:
* B Murray, Yserman, Hextall, Francis
Out in the Third Round:
* Nill, Bergevin
Winner: Guerin
Runner-Up: Blake.
You're welcome.
As the leafs game ended my phone updated me that this episode uploaded. Sad lost but excited for this podcast.
Hutch tried, but ya can’t win them all
@@cmac9029 at least we got a point and Matthews actually scored a snipe
GM Royal Rumble- Ron Hexstall wins it for sure.
There's a few NHL general managers who look super fit. Jarmo Kekalainen looks like he could punch your head off.
Kyle Dubas is a huge wrestling fan so he probably already has a strategy on how to win a royal rumble lol
And hey if he needs any tips he could always ask, noted friend: Edge
Jack Campbell has as many wins in 6 games as Buffalo has this season. :O
Sabres just need to clean house and start fresh and then there can be two “expansion” teams next year
Adam really should do his own channel on history. I would sub immediately
Love the full length vid of the podcast. Like to see more of this instead of snips.
Every episode is released full length. They then snip it for quick segments, but every episode is available full length. Just go to the channel page on youtube to find the link.
Adam, don't forget in that Damphousse trade the Leafs also got Glenn Anderson who hit 20+ in both full seasons with the Leafs and added 17 in the season he was traded for Mike Gartner. Gartner was here for a good time, not along time but was great, 12 points in 10 games after the deadline deal and 35 in his last year with the Leafs. Now, to Fuhr, who was good, but got pushed out because of Felix Potvin, so what did the Leafs do?? They traded Fuhr for back-up Darren Puppa who put up some great numbers before being claimed in the expansion draft, a first round pick who turned out to be Kenny Jonsson and DAVE ANDREYCHUK. The Leafs got a LOT out of that deal.
Start ranking GMs/Coaches/Presidents/etc on arbitrary things
As soon as Leaf nation learned Hutch was starting in goal we all knew it's an automatic loss
As an Oilers fan I was terrified at the possibility of losing to him again
I was perfect happy with his performance and I thought he did a great job. It didn't bother me at all that he was in net.
@@joer8854 I thought he played great, although for sure he isn’t your ideal playoff goalie. Hopefully Freddie returns to starter status by playoff time for your sakes. I wouldn’t bank on Campbell (by himself) winning playoff games if he has to faceoff against helly or Carey (or both)
@@rob9133 I would like to see more from Campbell to be more comfortable but from his performance so far there would definitely be no reason to panic. I just hope the team keeps on him about not letting a bad goal or a mistake here or there bother him. Errors happen, and don't go on social media. That being said I hope freddy is healthy soon.
What is with this absolutely insane narrative of "Do you want the whole game to be played on the power play?"!
That's not how things would actually progress if the NHL was officiated by the rule book all the time! Players would adjust, they'd understand with extreme clarity what is and what is not a penalty in that scenario!
Sure you might have a few months of crazy penalties in games but that'd taper off real damn quick because there'd be no confusion.
So tired of that. Call the penalties as they should be called and let the league adjust.
@@joer8854 Mhm. From my perspective hearing stuff about "managing games" it immediately tells me there's no competitive integrity in the NHL. You can't "manage a game" except for BY THE RULE BOOK, and still talk about competitive integrity because you've now stolen that from the players and teams.
Also just a funny way of saying "rigged games".
@@tylerganske3788 It's not rigged, that's such an overused stupid comment by fans who think the League is against their team. The league is spending too much time worried about not making the refs a deciding factor that it sometimes ends up a deciding factor because of it. Don't try and even it up in regard to the number of penalties, just call the game.
@@joer8854 yah I agree but it’s not like the refs can actually call the game by the book the way the book is currently written. Rules aren’t black&white enough so they make judgment calls.
Refs seemingly have to decide what style of game they’re going to call before the puck drops (soft calls vs no calls). So when they accidentally make the wrong call/no-call and it doesn’t match up with the standard of penalties that they’ve set for the game they become inclined to make the same call/no-call on the next infraction to the other team if they can. The reason game management is like this is because it’s the best system that can be made out of the current rule book which doesn’t account for severity of minor infractions (ie: the difference between stepping on a stick and tripping or being hauled down by another players stick). Refs have to decide within seconds wether something like that warrants a penalty or not and they can’t walk back their call at all so instead they keep an eye out for a makeup call when they know they strayed from the standard that they had to set.
Most obvious example is cross checking. Refs don’t look twice when someone gets cross checked. But if refs decide to call a cross check one way (for whatever reason, maybe it’s egregious or maybe it’s soft) then of course they aren’t going to let the other team get away with the next cross check of the same caliber. Even though they probably look past 100 cross checks each game. It’s not the best way to do it but it’s the best way that they can with the tools they have, and I don’t see it changing as long as Gary B likes it.. which I’m sure he does because it results in typically even power play opportunities for both teams.
imo: refs shouldn’t have to choose the style of game that they’re going to call at all, there should be a standard set by the league. ultimately there isn’t anything they can do different.
Saying that refs need to just call it the way it should be called doesn’t mean anything because the league:
A. Doesn’t know how it should be called has never been clear about what warrants a penalty and what doesn’t
B. Don’t want to risk changing anything
C. *Insert conspiracy rigging comments here*
I for sure have been overthinking reffing standards since Timmy got the boot, enjoy my essay lol.
Procrastination is a hell of a drug
JESSE THE LEGEND, RIGHT AFTER THE GAME
Another day, another SDP
I totally remember that Pacers-Knicks 30 in 30 - I had the exact same reaction as Steve. That was second round?!?
Thanks, I needed this right after that OT loss.
This was a fun episode
Speaking of Buffalo they got 3 goals, then they lost 4-3 in OT tonight lmfao what a team
As a Flames fan: 100% agree with Adams take. Sutter was issuing a warning to everyone else on the Flames.
The actual fire hydrant factory punchline is "You couldn't park anywhere near that place".
i love steve's zoo corner
4:26 the most anybody has cheered for Bill Zito and his panthers 😂
Boy can you tell when Adam checks out..
Jesse adding 'THE' (so necessary) to TSN and Sportsnet was hilarious!
As an Austrian, I probably don't fully understand the ins and outs of the salary cap and everything that has to be considered when adding players. However, wouldn't Rickard Rakell's injury be a chance to acquire him now, put him on IR until the playoffs start, and then have an extra impact player that wouldn't count against the salary cap (similar to what Tampa does with Kucherov)?
Leaf's need a goalie first and foremost. After that you only get a winger if its a perfect fit and the right cost. If not than just a goalie.
Oh so we are doing steves zoo stories??
Love your work. Here is something to feed the algorithm: 🧡💛🧡
41:40 for the playoffs, hymans prolly going onto the 1st line, and you pick up a good depth guy, around the level of hyman, or even slightly worse
Book recommendation for Adam, The Baroque Cycle by Neil Stephenson. One of the best stories I've ever read. Also just finished "A column of fire" by Ken Follett, part of the Kingsbridge series. Will fill a good place in your History obsession. Enjoy !
I miss Travis Boyd 😢
For having supposedly done research that History Corner segment was super inaccurate unfortunately. Right off the bat, the War of the Roses (a war between the Lancasters (red rose) and Yorks (white rose)) and the English Civil War (war between the Parliamentarians and Royalists) were separated by 200 years. Also "Scotland" wasn't Protestant like England officially was, they had had their own semi-Civil War in the time of Mary Queen of Scots because Mary was Catholic and John Knox/the nobles wanted James VI raised Protestant.
I will take Zoo Corner over History Corner any day.
i wanna see Jesse having a long hair, Steve having a mullet, and a bald Adam, 😂😂😂
My first leaf jersey was a Russ Courtnall
During the Wars of the Roses which spanned 30 years... the Crown jewels changed rulers 7 times...
I think we need a petition to have the GM royal rumble at the next all star game. And have GM’s come out in some sort of order based off their team’s position in the league
As a Boston fan it tickles me pink when you complain about championships thank you for making me laugh on my birthday
When are we getting Steve's Zoo Corner march? lol
Understated in the ref discussion is that if the NHL really wants 3 PP per side every game and think that's the best way to officiate a game, they could always make that actually be the rule. If that sounds stupid, at least it's better than having that not be the rule and just making it true outside of that.
darryl sutter is like the old school guy who will legit stretch guys for fun.
Hall-Matthews-Marner
Galch-Jahnny T- Nylander
Hyman-Eng-Mik
Thorton-Spezza-Simmonds
like man...
The Spanish, Dutch, Swedish and Monaco all still have their royal families
What's Bergevin's Finisher?
You have to believe that Yzerman would negotiate a way so that he enters the ring last. I would think some Gm.'s wouldn't want to go anywhere near Hextall either. He would be the first to grab a chair and start swinging away.
In the coach's Rumble, Jared Bednar wins. I watched him knock a guy out when he was with SC in the ECHL. He is legit.
I need an NHL GM Rumble. Like, yesterday. I also want to see a Rumble with the top 30 nearly retired stars. Chara and Thornton would be the last two.
More Zoo corners!
The heat attack kids
-Adam
As a Flames fan I honestly don't see Johnny getting dealt. However Monny I could see getting traded. It's really sad watching them this season especially after the fire start they had.
Dude.. the secret wrestling alliance is 'O6' aka 'Original 6'
What about Brian Burke? I reckon he'd win vs anyone in any category
First time watching podcast on TH-cam in a while. First thing I thought was "Where is Adam talking about my snow balls?"
It consistently amazes me how often Adam makes statement that are flat out not true. Palmieri has a no trade clause he apparently doesn't want to waive because of quarantine. It has nothing to do with the standings.
5:04 Adam with the Eric Andre reference
Sabres should take on bad contracts in return for lots of picks. Send expiring deals to playoff teams in return. For example, send Hall to the Oilers for Neal, another player on a bad contract, and a bunch of picks 1st - 4th round. The Sabres wont be good for years anyway so adding a bad contract that has 3-4 years left wont matter much at all.
Guys understand that buffalo knows they are retaining 50% cap on a Hall trade. Therefore a useless 1st makes sense.
Ever consider doing a live play by play fan watch during a game. Something to consider during the play offs or during one of the last games of the season. Check that the Playoffs are out.............Dangle wouldn't be fit for any camera time. hahaha
Absolutely love this idea.
Well done.
steve, did the puck cross the line in last nights game aganst the bruins?
Who needs Hall when you have Alex Galchenyuk?
@3:20 Rob Blake would be a dark horse for sure
The NHL should literally fire every single ref and hire new ones. Obviously this is unrealistic but it gives them a clean slate and will hopefully actually result in penalties being called, and non-penalties not being called
Steve would be a good coach, y know if he knew any strategies and when to take off star players
Heart breaker tonight, boys.
Watch the fight between Bill Guerin and Jim Slater and tell me he isn't a top five GM in a Royal Rumble.
I get it now, Adam is good at what he does, i can respect it, mans got jokes and he doesnt break lol
The Sabres are not a blank slate. They are a slate that has been used up and ruined. When Kevyn Adams tries to buy a new slate, no stores will sell him one, and slates are sold out online
The thing is, Kevyn Adams isn’t at fault. He’s a figurehead for Kim Pegula, who’s calling all personnel shots from the Head Coach on up. All Adams is doing right now, is trying to keep that GM on resume for as long as possible, potentially for a real shot when he eventually does get canned.
@@northerndriver2020 I’m not trying to blame anyone in particular my point was just that “blank slate” doesn’t really come close to getting across just how bad their situation actually is
I think the Flames should Trade Gaudreau. It would be the Best for the Flames AND for Gaudreau. I think he will find his game again, if he gets traded to another team.
Galch and Willy are Cosmo and Wanda
The Leafs need 3 things: another guy for 3rd offensive line, a defenseman that can play nhl significant minutes, and a goalie than can play in the nhl. This team right now is 2 injuries from winning possible 2nd round and attempting the cup, but if they don't get more goalie and D better performances or players, they won't do it, and they need a few bodies still.
The Leafs have done very well on defence this season. Having a superstar or even second line D just hanging out in the minors Just in case isn't an option for any team. The only player that I find concerning on D is Dermott so yeah I wouldn't mind seeing a decent upgrade there but that's about it. I'm more concerned with them bringing in depth that's signed next year to expose so they can protect Holl.
@@joer8854 I'd be concerned with who, if injured, would make the team collapse. That's the reason to trade for something : not collapsing again.
Dangle’s nose 🤥 gives away his Italian background.
What re you talking about perry is having a stellar season
And Luxembourg
I want to see the Leafs bring back Kessel
War of the roses is not the English Civil war. War of the roses is what eventually led to the tudors, which led to the Stuarts, which led to the English civil war and Cromwel
Right....when he said that my head swiveled so hard I hurt myself. Kind of a blow to the credibility of the History Corner.....
@@redwing3150 nah. Not really. From an outside perspective I can see how one could get those mixed up a bit
You cant have everything, where would you put it?
Somebody, please do an animation of the NHL GM Royal Rumble!!!
Seems like the NHL is making a statement about game management since the Peel firing. They will not have the integrity of their league questioned
Gaudreau - Matthews - Marner
Zoo corner > history corner
Best opener ever, best game ever
Man, if galch keeps up this level, hes gonna get like 3.5-5 mil
johnny hockey for eichel would you do it
Lol eichel is so much better
They need to just play Robertson and Sandin now. Leafs have to evaluate these guys to see what they have.
Both are hurt
@@ADragonNamedSpyro Roberston isnt hurt
@@niedermayer96 I guarantee he isn't at 100% so why force him to play nhl games when he isn't needed on the team
31 man gm royal rumble you win you get the first overall pick
You guys should get Marc Methot on the pod somehow, he and Brent Wallace have a new podcast. And Meth chirps the Leafs on Twitter so perfect subject matter
Rod Brind’amour for sure wins the coaches royal rumble
