Teams that are top-heavy are more volatile. High-priced players need to perform for the team to get its expected value. That explains EDM's start last season, and it explains Toronto's TB highs with the CBJ lows. Every player is streaky, and when you put many eggs in a couple baskets, you increase team output variance.
Lot of implications with that. One is to expect REALLY bad games but to gauge panic based on overall team record only, not last game's score. And another is that playoffs will be stressful af.
The panic button should’ve been smashed a few years ago after running it back year after year without making any major changes to the team. The team is still going nowhere this year.
8:48 NO it IS A PATTERN CJ WHEN THE SAME THING (leafs losing to terrible teams) HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVER SINCE MATTHEWS AND CO JOINED ALL THE WAY BACK IN EFFING 2017! Im not panicking yet but it annoys me that people treat every season as different when U HAVE THE SAME EFFING CORE.
I think the best way to get producer Nick more involved is maybe when there is a funny moment before/after recording that could be included as an outtake at the start or end of the podcast.
The words “benefit of the doubt” belongs nowhere near the Shanahan leafs who have accomplished only slightly more than the Sabres
Love Chris’s Bruins Hat !
Chris Johnston mentions “a world” count: 1

Yeah, pretty sure the Rangers signed Laf NOW while Slaf's contract was still a comparable. I don't think it will be for long lol.

The opportunity to call him "Jake McPaid" was missed
He’s an alright d man. Nothing to write home about. Deferred payments for this quality of players will only hurt the team later.
Gotto love CJ, except when he talks Leafs.
He tries , but either his ❤ or his wallet gets in the way.
McCabe is a 3rd pairing d man on a true contender, leafs are truly gonna end up wasting matthews entire prime
Boo hoo, ya muppet
@@gavin1453 get to a cup final w more than 6 teams. Then we can talk
Jake McPaid

Marner had a good game in Boston? No. Passing with an open net, when he could have scored is pathetic
he left matthews out to die too lol
@ even worse!!!
@@ScreaminT81yea get off the ice or help your teammate but noo.. just chill on your way off while Matthews has 2 Bruins pressuring him
@ you’re speaking my love language. No homo hahaha.
Yeah I’ve wanted him gone now for a few seasons.
Yes he made defence lapses but he also had 3 assists in a 3 goal game, that can't be ignored
Chris “buckets” Johnson, carrying MLSE’s water since day 1.
