When I was a kid I idolized this big swede. I grew up a leafs fan but found out once he left to Van, that I was just a fan of Mats. Hope life is treating him well. Thanks for the pod boys!
Mats Sundin was the first player I ever recognized as a child watching the NHL, he was an absolute idol for me, introducing me to the sport of hockey and the Leafs. I owe a lot to Mats, including the reason why 13 is my favourite number. He will forever be my all time favourite player, and I was fortunate enough to meet him at the Toronto NHL All Stars fan fair where he signed my rookie cards of him. Very humble of a guy, his leadership, love for the game and his teammates, the countless iconic goals, his backhand and slap shot, his power with with the puck, he truly was a complete player. I will also be seeing him again next week for his book signing, only this time my dad will also get to meet him, and that is gonna be a special moment for me. I can’t thank him enough. Hopefully this time I won’t be as nervous! 🤣
As a kid from southern Ontario about an hour outside of Toronto (Kitchener Waterloo) this dude was a god to me growing up, happy to see he’s doing well and has a family now.
@@182kramer I can recommend it too and im a habs fan from mtl haha but seriously steve and is collegue are interesting and they know their hockey. I like watching them
I remember when Wendle Clark was traded to Quebec for Sundin and everyone was so sad in Toronto but I was so excited because I knew what an elite future Sundin would have. He's a legend and carried the team on his shoulders.
I was freaking out!! Wendel was my favourite player so I absolutely hated it. In hindsight it was a great deal. Fletcher's first tenre as gm of the Leafs was amazing.
It was definitely a sad moment as a Leafs fan seeing Wendel leave Toronto...However, it definitely worked out in the end, the Leafs did bring #17 back, which was epic! Mats Sundin was a class act through and through, hell of a player, captain and all around good human being. we loved you Mats ❤
I obviously understand why a lot of people don’t like RA but he was the true genesis of this podcast so I hope he’s doing better but I do hope they bring him back at some point even it’s not every pod would be nice to hear from the guy.
Happy to see you give Barbashev a good shout out. I knew him when he played junior here for the Wildcats and i knew he would be rock soliid. And hhes was a real great kid to boot- tough having conversations with him back then as he barely spoke any English...and i dont speak Russian, but just an amazing kid!
One of my hero's growing up will never forget the Hatty o.t winner for 500 vs the flames ... Hockey tourney in Victoria staying at the Blue ridge with my dad it's burned into my monkey brain
Whit looking back at grinelli and pasha with that “what the fuck is this guy talking about” face while biz says the leafs are gonna go father in the playoffs, is the single funniest moment of the entire show😂😂😂😂😂
Potentially the 4th year IN A ROW the Oilers defense and goaltending have been in question on this podcast first 10 games of the season. Can't believe I listened to several minutes of analysis on this very same problem after Edmonton loses the B.O.A. to the Flames; arguably the best story in the NHL given their expectations and Gaudreaus death. The Oilers stroking has to stop. There's 82 games in the season, there will be plenty of time to talk about Edmonton once they deserve fans attention again.
I’m a Montreal Canadiens fan, but I was also always a fan of Mats Sundin. He was something to watch on the ice. I was so hyped when Habs traded for his rights, I was so ready to buy a Sundin Habs jersey. Will always wonder what could have been.
Great episode! Loved the Sundin interview. Can you discuss the NHL app. It is garbage. For the Tampa game the other night, Kucherov had a 3rd period hat trick. The app listed the same goal 3 times (same time, same assists for all 3)! Useless. The NHL needs to focus on fixing the app instead of NFTs.
I don’t blame Whit for smirking! Every game you guys played it looked like your goalie was getting lit up on every shot and the other teams goalie was Carry Price. Maybe it’s just the video but I was smirking as well at the end 😂
Awesome interview with Sundin, who was one of my favorite players growing up. God bless you guys, and you guys that read this, Jesus Christ loves you, wants you to have a loving relationship with Him and turn away from sin. Believe on Him and ask for forgiveness and start living with Him for the rest of your life today. God loves you. ❤
Shesterkin is 100% one of those goalies you just know gonna be sick in the playoffs. That's a very short list right now with Bob and Vasy aging. An actual difference maker goalie, i would pay that man. Plus, having a nutty goalie in that Rangers jersey is sort of their brand now. If i see a Rangers goalie in the playoffs i know he's gonna be sick.
Hey Guys, Love your show! Whit and Biss, Are either of you going to get into any kind of play by play? 2 Questions - Hey Biss, you did fucking AMAZING NARRATION work on the Prime show FACEOFF ( MUST SEE BTW!) In your guys opinion , realistically , how long and what is it going to take for Connor Mcdavid and the Edmonton Oilers to win the Stanley cup? Do you guys think that Jacob Trouba is a SOCIOPATH/ PHYSCOPATH? I DEFINITELY DO after watching that show... Thankyou for considering an answer CHEERS!!
When Carey Price started his deal he was 31 years old, and they only got 3 years out of him. Shesterkin will be turning 30 about 2-3 months after the start of next season. Signing goalies that old to long term deals is always a bad idea. He is a good goalie, but he will not win the Rangers a cup by himself, they have too many other issues.
Hearing Whit’s voice during the intro is always a relief. I can actually watch/listen to the whole episode without having to skip through the all of ra’s annoying bumbling and weird/creepy stuff he says
In regards to Shesty, my neighbor and I were chatting and he heard that it wasnt the money end, it was the length Shesty didn't like. Apparently he didn't want to get that long term a contract, I don't know. Just tellin ya what I heard.
@@motelbobby4104 it was a few of us actually. But it goes to their point that the cap is going up and they don't want to commit to anything long term yet.
I remember one time I was leaving a bar in Niagara Falls ont. I called a cab. I get in the the cabbie tells me he just had Matt’s ‘ Tie domi and Pat Quine In the car. They use to visit an Irish bar called Clancy’s. He had gotten all their autograph’s the seat was still warm in the passenger seat of corse Pat sat up front.
I understand the Nate comment in comparison to Laf, but let's not get it twisted here. In his first year, Laf had HALF the amount of points the dawgg had in his first year.
Whit talking about Daccord “finally” getting some security financially. The guy just came off a $2.4M contract, plus his smaller deals/ELC. That would give any working class guy financial security for life.

Much love for Mats , class human being in every way .

2:19:45 Phil Kessel should've signed with NHL on TNT, TSN or Sportsnet to do arena concession reviews. They can call the segment 'Fill Kessel'
Rink hotdog reviews. It'd be great.
He could let people know which foods result in stinky breath
@@jvcpaints Compare beer prices, candy selection etc. to basically watch him stuff his face in both intermissions
I would pay a month subscription for fill kessel
One of the greatest players/human beings to ever dawn the Maple Leafs crest. Wore the C with pride. I could listen to #13 talk for hours.
👋from France. Best hockey podcast by far 🤘
Hello from Canada. Steve Dangle podcast is very good as well, especially if you like the Maple Leafs.
@@182kramer maybe if you ignore the squealing and screaming. their target audience seems to be middle schoolers
@@182kramertough recommend… making us Canadians look bad
@@NotodayUrsidae SDP is a great podcast. Give your head a shake.
@@182kramer I can recommend it too and im a habs fan from mtl haha
but seriously steve and is collegue are interesting and they know their hockey. I like watching them
Growing up I loved Mats Sundin. Great interview, fellas!
Mats Sundin, what a class act.

Love these Legends interviews. Keep this up.

lol naw I like it the way it is, but hope the dude is good.
I agree, but God the show has been buzzing since he left lol. It'd also be cool to see Yands or Merls brought up as the new permanent third.
@@austinpissey8789 has there been any updates on RA?
I agree. I miss RA…he is a unique piece that mixed things up and I personally prefer the POD with RA on it
Please god dont bring him back. Pay him money, hope hes all good, but keep him away from the gd mic
As a leafs fan who grew up idolizing Mats Sundin, it was quite hilarious hearing him drop an fbomb for the first time (publicly, obv) 1:30:43
These RA less episodes are the best keep em coming
Ikr
Hater
Wrong
Maybe you turn your back on friends when they are down but these guys and most would never..
@@braddunlop7819 never turn your back on a teammate, not hard to tell some of these fools are mutts in the comments

Whit is absolutely killing it as a host!!
the fact biz actually got whits kid a leafs jersey 😂😂
Thank you guys for getting this LEGEND on!!! Was super pumped when I saw this! Great interview as always! Keep it up fellas
Damn the new intro song is absolutely unreal. Actual goosebumps
The Man Mats Sundin what a beauty !
Mats was so fun to watch play. The only Leafs team as a Bruins fan I didn't despise
Barstool forgot a shit ton of their fans by not including us for the Nashville trip. Loved your interview with Mats, he’s pure class 👍
Nothin against RA, but these podcasts are so much more enjoyable
🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇴unbelievable beautiful countries!
❤️ Love ya Matts!🇸🇪
The Oilers are brutal
1:13:48 Mat, shoot the puck tabarnak 😂 RIP Guy Lafleur
Whit laughing at the loss is next level
Holy boys Matts my childhood hero, I’m rock hard right now
I forgot how many amazing players were Swedes until Mats starts listing off that gold medal team. Like, is that as good a team as any?
When Mats came to the Nordiques, he was on the Sakic, Sundin and Forsberg line...OMG!!!
One of my hero's growing up will never forget the Hatty o.t winner for 500 vs the flames ... Hockey tourney in Victoria staying at the Blue ridge with my dad it's burned into my monkey brain
Love biz calling the team “his leafs” to Mats 😂
My hero! 🙌🙌
hate the leafs, love MS13. One of the rare, true, big and skilled #1 center in the league's history. What a player!
Matt, shoot the puck tabarnak!!!
That was funny as hell!!
"Ya got 3 Patrick Roys" ahaha even as a leafs fan that's a good one
LETS GOOOOOO SUNDIN
Whit looking back at grinelli and pasha with that “what the fuck is this guy talking about” face while biz says the leafs are gonna go father in the playoffs, is the single funniest moment of the entire show😂😂😂😂😂
Y’all need to get Geno on the pod. Would be the best interview in the history of the pod
Can’t wait for Keith’s team to absolutely dust the big deal selects.

Hey guys its been 3 games lets relax on Utah winning the cup
The Squanto 16 Leafs jersey for Whit's son is too funny
Love the Utah coverage, boys!
I’m a Montreal Canadiens fan, but I was also always a fan of Mats Sundin. He was something to watch on the ice.
I was so hyped when Habs traded for his rights, I was so ready to buy a Sundin Habs jersey. Will always wonder what could have been.
Miss u Ra!
whit's grin at the camera was hilarious af. also, I love the idea of whit and yands VS biz.
No wayyyyyy my favourite player growing up

My favorite player!
Interview actually starts at 58:06 if you want to skip the gambling ad!
Season is back and RA isn’t! Let’s gooooooo!!!
I don’t blame Whit for smirking! Every game you guys played it looked like your goalie was getting lit up on every shot and the other teams goalie was Carry Price. Maybe it’s just the video but I was smirking as well at the end 😂
That banner man I’m embarrassed and I’m a rags fan
"rags" fan sure
Yes rags fan been watching my whole life bud
Finally Whitteys not Warried
Whit saying "I'm getting removed?!" sounded exactly like Christopher from Sopranos when he'd get mad about something.
Wha I gotta stand here being threatened now?!
Every AZ fan is here shaking our damn heads knowing this was gonna happen and PISSED that Merulo is a scumbag and now we don't have our team anymore.

Is RA gone for good?
After Whit's comments about him appearing on Surviving Barstool, it kinda seems like it.

Cool fact - Markstrom and Allen are 34 both drafted in 2008 31and 34th picks.
I have one his sticks with the autograph on the blade:)
Greatest rental player of all time😂😂😂😂
Mats. Awesome legend and he didn't have, Matthews, Marner, Willy or Johnny to pad his stats.
My new head coach is Nathan Perrott he played with Matt with the leafs in 03 you guys should get him on also Theo Peckham plays for us
Can we see more hockey university tours
The boys are going to chirp the hawks into a playoff spot
Sweet hoodie whitdogg
Of course you film this before the devils hand Utah their first L and first shutout
No Canadian entries for the contest? :(

Find yourself a girt that looks at you the way Biz looks at Sundin.
There is a reason the WHL is the best junior league out there boys..
What's brutal is scoring 7 goals in 202 NHL games.
Biz rockin a Rolex Submariner.
