00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 2: Block off hot a, step hit on, staylock.

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: Here's your hosts, Jesse Severe and Victor Nuno Fantasy Hockey

6
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:26,440
Live once again.

7
00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: Victor Nuno, Jesse Severe creeping up on the first games

8
00:00:31,399 --> 00:00:34,280
of the NHL season. How you doing there, Victor?

9
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,079
Speaker 3: I don't like that you suggested that we're creeping. That

10
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:39,000
just sounds.

11
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,679
Speaker 2: I would never creep, Victor. If anything, when people hear me,

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,439
they know that I'm coming. They Yeah, I don't think

13
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,159
I am particularly subtle in any way. I don't think

14
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:56,920
that will be a problem. Victor. Yeah, what do you think? Man?

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,320
It's getting to befall. It's getting to be that time

16
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:02,439
of year. How about the Fantasy hockey like weather report?

17
00:01:02,479 --> 00:01:05,280
How how's the weather out in California right now?

18
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,799
Speaker 3: The weather here's awesome as always, so people love it here,

19
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,200
Jesse's although I was recently in your neck of the

20
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:15,079
woods where you were from anyways, growing up in Iowa,

21
00:01:15,239 --> 00:01:18,040
and that was interesting. I think I understand a little

22
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,359
bit more why when people come to California they get

23
00:01:20,359 --> 00:01:22,879
a little confused by the weather because when I was

24
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,799
in Iowa, I woke up and it was about seventy degrees,

25
00:01:25,879 --> 00:01:28,840
and I went to bed and it was maybe eighty eighty five.

26
00:01:28,879 --> 00:01:32,079
It pretty much stayed the same temperature most of the time.

27
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,799
It didn't really fluctuate that way, whereas here it does

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,519
get cool in the morning. It's not like cool. I'm

29
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:39,560
not saying it gets cold, but it definitely there's a

30
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,239
huge fluctuation in the temperature, which I don't think is

31
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,319
always the case in some Midwest states, at least early

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,599
in the summer and early fall. So that was just

33
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,200
a reminder of because I would get up early and

34
00:01:50,239 --> 00:01:53,719
go play disc golf and even at six in the morning,

35
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,400
it's seventy five degrees, and that would not be the

36
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,439
case here. It would be a lot colder. So that's

37
00:01:58,519 --> 00:01:59,319
a little touch on.

38
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,159
Speaker 2: You whether you went there at an Yeah, you went

39
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,599
there at an odd time, victor that is not normal

40
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,159
des moin weather behavior. Yeah, you've showed up in a

41
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:12,599
couple of days in September that I think were unrepresentative.

42
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,719
And yeah, the variants may the modulation maybe maybe less

43
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:20,960
sometimes I think than California. But don't worry the cold

44
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,159
is there. The cold will find you if you're in

45
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,240
des moin much longer. Oh, I think everybody feels reassured

46
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,479
that they know some current weather forecasts. And you can

47
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,879
be even more reassured if you come into the Fantasy

48
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:37,000
Hockey Life discord, where we talk about nothing but fantasy

49
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:39,759
hockey and weather all the time. That's all we talk

50

about in there. That's all. But you could get in

00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:46,039
there still and probably start a league where you could

52
00:02:46,039 --> 00:02:48,919
just chatter fantasy hockey. Maybe you have some last minute

53
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,120
draft decisions to make and you want to bounce it

54
00:02:51,159 --> 00:02:53,560

Speaker 2: If you're right back to talk some Eastern Conference hockey, Victor,

69
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,479
we are doing the second half of the Ketchup and

70
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,280
Mustard episode, the TLDR version of how this works. We're

71
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,280
going to go through the teams, describe what happened after

72
00:03:56,479 --> 00:03:59,000
our team previews would stretch all the way back to April,

73
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:03,159
and then give two hot takes for each team, and

74
00:04:03,479 --> 00:04:05,439
one of them is going to be the one that

75
00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:08,840
we hold. The other two we're going to start with

76
00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:12,240
one of yours. Victor out in Beantown.

77
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, Boston four twenty nine, one of our earliest recordings

78
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,519
end of April. A lot of things have happened. They

79
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:26,079
made some interesting signings and trades. They signed Michael A. Cymont,

80
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,959
who's a pretty decent middle six bottom six forward. Tanner

81
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,639
Janeau got signed and he certainly has had some interesting seasons.

82
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,519
We'll see if he can bounce back. I almost made

83
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,160
my take about him, but I decided to go with

84
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:42,000
someone else. Traded for Victor Arvidson. I don't really think

85
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,279
that there's much left for Victor Arvidson. He's a depth scorer. Now,

86
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,319
they extended Morgan Geeky, who is going to relate to

87
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,240
my hot take. They signed in Sean Collari, Sean Corally.

88
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,560
They have a new coach, Marco Sturm, who I have

89
00:04:56,399 --> 00:04:58,879
known growing up watching the Sharks, and he's been a

90
00:04:58,959 --> 00:05:02,800
really effective coach ever since he turned to coaching, and

91
00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:04,879
so that's fun. We don't know what's going to happen there.

92
00:05:04,959 --> 00:05:08,519
And then they drafted James Higgins, so my takes are

93
00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:14,680
going to relate to the one forward, one defenseman. Morgan

94
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,319
Geeky is a guy that I said first we'd start with,

95
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,959
and I just am very skeptical of Geeky. First of all,

96
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,000
we always talk about don't draft line dependent players, and

97
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,519
I don't think there was anyone more line dependent last

98
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,160
year than Morgan Geeky. And it was great that he

99
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:33,519
did a sum with it. He got a sixty one

100
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,240
point pace, clearly a career season, almost double what he's

101
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,680
had in some previous season. That says a lot. He

102
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:44,920
was pretty much staple to pasta the entire season, and

103
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,639
I think that tells a lot too he was stable

104
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,639
to Pasta and he barely got over half the number

105
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,480
of points as David Paster Knock and he was at

106
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,720
fifty seven. So I think he's going to continue to struggle.

107
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,279
I think he might even get shuffled down the lineup.

108
00:05:59,319 --> 00:06:02,240
It might be Linholm, they might try Zaka, they might

109
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,040
try somebody else with him, who knows. So I think

110
00:06:05,079 --> 00:06:07,879
Morgan geeky fails to clear a sixty point pace and

111
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,959
the other take relates to Mason Lori. Mason Lori is

112
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,720
an interesting player. I've liked him for a long time,

113
00:06:16,519 --> 00:06:20,399
but he also is a very exciting player. Both ways.

114
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,639
Things happen when he's out there. Either he helps create

115
00:06:24,639 --> 00:06:27,519
a goal or he gets scored on, and that's not ideal.

116
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,839
Minus forty three is like impressive to be able to

117
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,519
accomplish that in this season. I know we don't tend

118
00:06:33,519 --> 00:06:35,680
to talk about that as much, but his underlying metrics

119
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,160
show the same thing. Really good offensive creation but very

120
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:43,040
suspect defense. And he had a thirty five point pace

121
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,279
last season. He was running the power play a lot.

122
00:06:45,399 --> 00:06:47,519
He did get just under twenty minutes time on ice,

123
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,800
but I think his defensive abilities continue to limit him

124
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,160
a bit, and so normally I'd say he's prying to

125
00:06:55,199 --> 00:06:56,720
take a step, and I do like him as a

126
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,519
speculatve ad in a lot of places. You and I

127
00:06:58,519 --> 00:07:00,360
were just talking about him, Jesse, and one of our

128
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:03,399
dynasty leagues we co manage. We have him, and we're

129
00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:06,279
thinking what to do with his new contract. Decided to

130
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,839
keep him. But I am skeptical that he will reach

131
00:07:08,879 --> 00:07:12,800
his full potential just because he struggles to play defense,

132
00:07:12,839 --> 00:07:14,839
and I'm not sure he's gonna get all the way there.

133
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,160
He has to be at least serviceable defensively to get

134
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:20,759
a lot more minutes. Three point two million for the

135
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,839
next couple of seasons is not a huge deal though,

136
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:25,240
so I'm happy to take that low key bed in

137
00:07:25,279 --> 00:07:27,800
a deeper dynasty. But I'm going to say Mason Laura

138
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,240
fails to clear forty five points this season, as I'm

139
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,199
just a little skeptical that he gets enough time on

140
00:07:33,279 --> 00:07:35,959
ice an opportunity to make good on that. Morgan Geeky

141
00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:39,000
or Mason Lori, these are both on the pessimistic side. Jesse.

142
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 2: First of all, on the topic of stapling to pasta,

143
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,279
I've cooked with pasta. If you attempt to staple anything

144
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,600
to I think you got to go with the lasagna

145
00:07:50,639 --> 00:07:53,480
noodle because that's the only one that's probably big enough

146
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,040
to take a staple. You're just going to crack the noodle,

147
00:07:56,279 --> 00:07:58,800
and if you cook it, it's just the staple's going

148
00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:01,160
to go right through it. So don't stay anything to pasta.

149
00:08:01,199 --> 00:08:03,879
All right, let's just get with that, Morgan geek. You

150
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:06,160
could have told me fails to clear a fifty point

151
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:08,959
pace and I would have gone with it. So I'm not.

152
00:08:09,279 --> 00:08:11,319
I'm not going with that hot take at all. Mason

153
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,439
Lorii clearing forty five points, I'm I'm psyched by that because,

154
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,720
like you said, I was a little reluctant that we'd

155
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:23,199
be paying a reasonable contract to him in our co

156
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,920
managed team. But hey, I'll hold you to that one

157
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,279
just because I find that to be the less likely

158
00:08:29,319 --> 00:08:31,720
of the two, and I sure hope you're right about it.

159
00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:36,679
Next up, we got the Buffalo Sabers. This was another

160
00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:41,440
pre draft recording that we did the catch up the

161
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,600
very latest. Actually, they signed Alexander Georgia, which after that

162
00:08:45,919 --> 00:08:49,679
chaos ensued in our dynasty in our guillotine draft because

163
00:08:49,879 --> 00:08:52,600
he wasn't eligible to draft in five teams including me,

164
00:08:52,919 --> 00:08:56,799
drafted him, so it was chaos. They made the famous

165
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,240
JJ Peterka for Josh Stone and Michael kessel Ring trade

166
00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:05,840
which caused consternation as well, Buffalo just causing all kinds

167
00:09:05,879 --> 00:09:09,000
of stuff. They traded Connor Clifton for Connor Timmins to

168
00:09:09,279 --> 00:09:13,679
keep the Connor balance steady for the team, and the

169
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,679
extended RFA is boone Byram definitely by Jack Quinn and others.

170
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:20,720
And they drafted right and MRCA in the draft, the

171
00:09:20,759 --> 00:09:25,120
big solid defenseman. So they did do some things that

172
00:09:25,159 --> 00:09:28,240
we might like. Sounds like there's some question about ukapec

173
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,720
Lukenin and his injury status at this point because of

174
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:35,480
the signing of Georgia, but we don't know. It's Buffalo.

175
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:40,120
Man of the hot takes for this year, Josh Norris.

176
00:09:40,159 --> 00:09:43,759
We talked about him recently, and I'm so hoping that

177
00:09:43,919 --> 00:09:50,159
Norris busts out again, like I said a few years ago,

178
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,360
a few years ago, and I am really hoping that

179
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,480
he is going to hit sixty points this year. So

180
00:09:58,519 --> 00:09:59,960
I'm going to make that one of my hot takes

181
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,840
that he makes up to sixty points. And Devin Levi,

182
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:09,279
even with the UPL situation, and the Georgia. But with

183
00:10:09,399 --> 00:10:13,080
the Georgia of signing, I say, Devin Levi gets fewer

184
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,039
than five games under five games in the NHL this year,

185
00:10:17,159 --> 00:10:20,919
which would make me extremely sad in our four sport league.

186
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,399
But I don't know what's going on there, but they

187
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,759
don't seem to want to use him a whole ton

188
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,320
in the NHL. He began to be down in the AHL.

189
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:31,320
Maybe I'm just doing that to hedge my bets to

190
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,120
hopefully be wrong about this one, and then I'll be

191
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,559
happier in my league. Which one of those two? Do

192
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:36,799
you like?

193
00:10:36,919 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 3: Victor like both of them to some extent. I think

194
00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:46,240
it's funny Cousins and Norris who are traded basically for

195
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,039
each other. I'm very skeptical of both these guys, actually,

196
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,120
and I've been seeing them in my mock drafts and stuff,

197
00:10:53,159 --> 00:10:57,679
and I'm just avoiding them. I'm just not really believing,

198
00:10:57,919 --> 00:11:04,039
I guess, and so I'm and the injury history. When

199
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:08,279
Norris does play, he's usually pretty good, but the issue

200
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,519
is all the time missed and all those things that

201
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:16,480
you mentioned that he's only hit fifty five actual points

202
00:11:16,519 --> 00:11:18,720
would be his max. So this is a good one.

203
00:11:18,799 --> 00:11:21,480
Because you're going out on a limb saying he's gonna

204
00:11:21,519 --> 00:11:23,320
play a lot, he's gonna get the opportunity, he's gonna

205
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,080
be productive enough, and he's gonna stay healthy enough, which

206
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,960
always sounds like a lot of caveats things that need

207
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,559
to go right. So I'll hold you to that one.

208
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:33,080
I'm really curious as to what they're doing with Devin

209
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:36,360
Levi too. It's frustrating with the uncertainty with UPL. They

210
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,799
went out and signed Georgiev, as you mentioned, and yeah,

211
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,240
it's just I don't get it. They have Devin Levi there,

212
00:11:42,279 --> 00:11:44,440
who who seems like you should be good enough to

213
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,720
take some of the load. Maybe he really is super

214
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,159
injured and they're gonna roll with Georgiev and Levi as

215
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,279
their tandem. I doubt that, but that would blow up

216
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,799
your other one. But I'm going to hold you to

217
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,879
the Norris one. I think that one's a little harder

218
00:11:56,919 --> 00:12:01,440
to hit, and so we'll go that. I do hope

219
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,120
and think that Levi should play more than five games,

220
00:12:04,159 --> 00:12:07,120
but that hasn't been hasn't been a very common theme

221
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:11,000
in terms of what he's done recently, So that makes

222
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,639
you a little bit worried. About that happening, But let's

223
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,559
move on to the next team here, Detroit Red Wings.

224
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,360
That was back in early June as well. Since then,

225
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,440
the Gibson trade happened. They gave up Maraazac for Gibson,

226
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:30,039
They signed JVR, they signed Mason Appleton, vlad Terasenko moved on,

227
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,799
and they drafted Carter Bear, who was an interesting prospect.

228
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,759
In terms of where to go here with the Red Wings,

229
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,840
it seems like they still are shuffling things around the edges.

230
00:12:42,879 --> 00:12:45,440
I'm not sure how big of a shift all these

231
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,840
things are going to do, but they still have a

232
00:12:47,879 --> 00:12:51,000
pretty decent team. They should be in playoff contention. One

233
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,919
of the big stories last season was Marco Casper taking

234
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,679
a big step, playing seventy seven games, thirty nine points,

235
00:12:57,399 --> 00:13:01,200
all that was pretty good. I'm just a little skeptical

236
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,039
that he's going to take even another step because I

237
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,919
think Casper is I think he's a good player. I

238
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,840
think that he was probably going to be helpful to

239
00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:14,320
the team, But just in terms of opportunity, time on

240
00:13:14,399 --> 00:13:17,559
ice and all that, I'm not sure where he falls.

241
00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:19,840
Is he really a top of the lineup kind of guy.

242
00:13:20,039 --> 00:13:22,039
Is that how they're going to use him. Just looking

243
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,080
last season they had him as the sixth month time

244
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,039
on ice, he was just behind j T. Comfort and Dabrinkit, Kane, Raymond,

245
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:33,519
and Larkin, and so he's probably going to stay in

246
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:39,960
that range. And he also had a lot lower time

247
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,840
on ice. He was behind Terry Senko as well in

248
00:13:42,879 --> 00:13:45,159
the terms of the power play and only had four

249
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,080
power play points. So he's going to need to beef

250
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,600
all that up. They're going to need to trust in

251
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:50,279
him more. All those things are going to need to

252
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,879
happen for Casper to get an even bigger step forward.

253
00:13:53,919 --> 00:13:55,879
So I would just be skeptical that's going to happen.

254
00:13:55,919 --> 00:13:58,879
I think if he basically repeated or got forty five

255
00:13:59,159 --> 00:14:02,399
ish points, I think that should still be success with

256
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,240
all the other things that he does. So I'm going

257
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,879
to say that Marco Kasper fails to clear a fifty

258
00:14:06,919 --> 00:14:10,320
point pace. And so that's the first part. The second

259
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,840
part has to do with seOne Edvonson and I've been

260
00:14:13,879 --> 00:14:18,039
a fan of Edmondson, and I think that what's interesting

261
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,960
they have a lot of good options there in terms

262
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,080
of defenseman who could run a power play, who could

263
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,759
get points. I think Edvonson is going to be a

264
00:14:24,799 --> 00:14:27,159
really important part of their team. Just in general, they

265
00:14:27,159 --> 00:14:29,360
were much better with him out there. But I think

266
00:14:29,399 --> 00:14:30,960
it's a lot of it's going to come down to

267
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,000
what is happening with the power play, who's going to

268
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,600
run it and all that. So I think that's where

269
00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:39,240
we get into some questions. It's been Cider, He's had

270
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,000
the bulk of the power play time, but a lot

271
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,039
of people that we've talked to have agreed that he

272
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,919
might not be the best fit for that, and so

273
00:14:46,759 --> 00:14:49,879
we'll have to see. We also have seen a pretty

274
00:14:49,919 --> 00:14:53,679
significant time on ice to Eric Gustafson, who got that

275
00:14:53,799 --> 00:14:56,200
over Sewan Edvonson, So I think he's I think that's

276
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,440
going to flip, and I think they're going to give

277
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,279
more opportunity to see one Edvanson, and I don't that

278
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:03,039
they're going to bring up Axel sending Pelica this season

279
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,519
and give him that opportunity. So we'll just have to

280
00:15:06,519 --> 00:15:09,480
wait and see how all that comes out. But I'm

281
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,039
going to say that Semon Edvanson finishes no less than

282
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,320
five point pace behind most Cider and last season the

283
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:20,000
point paces we're forty six for Cider and thirty for Edvonson,

284
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,080
and I think that he basically narrows that gap, and

285
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,480
I could see a world where he even overtakes Cider.

286
00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:27,879
I think Cider is really good at playing really difficult minutes,

287
00:15:27,919 --> 00:15:31,279
but he's not always the most offensive guy. So I

288
00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:33,320
think Edvanson gets closer. So which one of these do

289
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:34,679
you want? Hold me too, Jessic.

290
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 2: Quite interesting. I think I'm going to go with the

291
00:15:40,519 --> 00:15:45,279
Edvonson take, with the logic that I think most Cider

292
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:49,320
is gonna have distance him, that the offensive difference between

293
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,480
them right now is a little bit wider than what

294
00:15:52,519 --> 00:15:55,759
you're talking about. We'll go with the Edvonson take. I'm

295
00:15:55,799 --> 00:15:59,159
not so sure what kind of expectation to have Marc

296
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:04,240
or Casper on to Florida. And even though we recorded

297
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,919
them at the end of July, there were a couple

298
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,960
of things Luke Cunning, Mike Benning both coming in and

299
00:16:10,279 --> 00:16:13,200
the hot takes that I have. Here's a spicy one.

300
00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:17,279
Victor Evan Rodriguez outscores Brad marchand I think we all

301
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,480
think that Brad Marschon is just gonna automatically be this

302
00:16:20,559 --> 00:16:24,799
thing because he was the playoff hero. But Rodriguez has

303
00:16:24,799 --> 00:16:27,080
been kicking butt there for a couple of years, and

304
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:32,039
he's gonna have good deployment. Yeah, and I truly expect

305
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,120
this is the one you're gonna hold me to. And

306
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,960
then the other one, Carter ver Hagy bounces back to

307
00:16:37,039 --> 00:16:40,000
a career high scoring. That would mean he'd have to

308
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,879
top seventy three points, which I think is well within

309
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,480
range for the young man who just had an off

310
00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:49,679
year last year. Victor, I'm going hard at these Florida takes.

311
00:16:49,679 --> 00:16:51,600
Which one you want me to be held to?

312
00:16:53,919 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 3: They have so many interesting things going on right with

313
00:16:56,799 --> 00:17:00,919
Kachuk being injured, I know that Barkov often misses some

314
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,399
time here and there. They have a bunch of certified

315
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,039
band aid boys on this team, and the reality is

316
00:17:06,039 --> 00:17:08,519
that even though they're not super banged up, they might

317
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,960
just take some time because they've been in multiple three

318
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,240
years in a row long playoff runs, and they know

319
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:17,559
what it takes to win in the playoffs, and they

320
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:19,279
know what it takes to get there, and they all

321
00:17:19,319 --> 00:17:20,720
they need to do is get in. So I think

322
00:17:20,759 --> 00:17:23,680
that they might rest some of their guys a little

323
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,440
bit or just let them take a little bit easy

324
00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:29,799
during the regular season, and I think that's going to

325
00:17:29,839 --> 00:17:33,640
affect everybody in different ways. I like for Hagey bouncing back.

326
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,599
I've always liked him as a player. I think he's

327
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,599
really smart, and he might get even more of an

328
00:17:37,599 --> 00:17:40,440
opportunity here with some of these other injuries. Not sure

329
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,359
if he can catch in on it, but I like

330
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:47,200
him to be able to bounce back a bit. I

331
00:17:47,319 --> 00:17:50,839
like the take of Rodriguez over Marshawn. I totally agree

332
00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:55,559
with you about playoff performances obviously often influencing people too

333
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,960
dramatically one way or the other. I do think that

334
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,559
there's a pretty decent chance that Rodriguez has a good season,

335
00:18:03,599 --> 00:18:05,039
but I find it hard to believe that he's gonna

336
00:18:05,039 --> 00:18:08,200
outpoint Brad Marshaan, even at thirty eight years old or whatever.

337
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,160
I think that Marshan is going to figure out how

338
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,400
to get his points, even though he probably will take

339
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720
it easy and not be as such a torrid pace

340
00:18:14,759 --> 00:18:17,160
as he was in the playoffs. Just no reason for

341
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:18,400
him to do that. But I'm going to hold you

342
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,000
to the Rodriguez over Marshaan one. I think that one's

343
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:27,000
going to be a little less likely, all right. And

344
00:18:27,039 --> 00:18:30,200
then the next team is the Montreal Canadians. We recorded

345
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,119
also in early June. Catchup is they traded mL Heinemann

346
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,920
for Noah freaking Dopson. As Jesse wrote here in the notes,

347
00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,119
thank you. That was a good trade for them. They

348
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,599
and some draft picks. Obviously they turned out pretty well

349
00:18:43,599 --> 00:18:46,359
for the Islanders. But right the right now, big thing

350
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,559
is no Adoptson. Obviously, they signed Jimmy Sammy Blay, They

351
00:18:50,599 --> 00:18:53,559
signed Couple Kakan in extended Jacob de Besh. They traded

352
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:56,400
away Caden Primo, which is probably good for both parties.

353
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,200
They traded a Look at My Youth for Zach Bulduke,

354
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,599
and they traded the Kerry Price contract to San Jose.

355
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,119
So I'm really high on the Canadians. I think that

356
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:11,759
they've done this amazing rebuild, which is funny because they

357
00:19:11,759 --> 00:19:14,079
were in the Sene Cup playoffs or final what a

358
00:19:14,079 --> 00:19:17,559
few years ago, five years ago now, But they've really

359
00:19:17,559 --> 00:19:20,359
been able to add some incredible pieces. That trade for

360
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,200
Dobson was great. They've also graduated some amazing prospects that

361
00:19:24,279 --> 00:19:26,920
are now contributing. They just seem like they're in a

362
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,759
really good fun position and I think it's looking up too.

363
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,839
They have a pretty consistent goaltender. They have the BESH

364
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,000
looking good. I don't know why they signed Capolcock and

365
00:19:37,079 --> 00:19:40,400
maybe some HL depth, but anyways, I really like a

366
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,440
lot of the offense, and my two takes are gonna

367
00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:45,839
come down to the two youngsters. First I've been Demodov

368
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,559
and second Lane Hudson. I think Demoedov is incredible. I

369
00:19:49,599 --> 00:19:52,640
would be shocked, absolutely shocked if he did not win

370
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,559
the Calder this year. He has so far and a

371
00:19:55,599 --> 00:19:58,680
head away ahead of everybody. He's been starring in the

372
00:19:58,759 --> 00:20:02,839
KHL for couple of years. I imagine it would be

373
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,200
absolute criminal if he wasn't on the top power play

374
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,039
in Montreal. Even though he's this first season, he absolutely

375
00:20:09,079 --> 00:20:12,200
deserves all the top deployment. I think they probably even

376
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,680
put them up there with uzukiin Kawfild. I don't know. Yeah,

377
00:20:15,599 --> 00:20:17,960
maybe slof Costi drops down the line too, but Demodoff

378
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,680
should get all the opportunity. I've seen some projections for

379
00:20:22,799 --> 00:20:25,039
him in the fifty ish point range, which I think

380
00:20:25,079 --> 00:20:27,640
is very reasonable for a first year player, and you

381
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,559
don't really know what to expect, but I think that

382
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,440
he's better than that. So I'm saying that Demodov is

383
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,119
going to get over a sixty five point pace, and

384
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,599
I'm not going to make a comment on the calder,

385
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,880
but I would be shocked if he didn't win that.

386
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,240
So that seems pretty likely and I don't think that

387
00:20:44,319 --> 00:20:49,039
any other first year player can out outpoint him. Second

388
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,799
has to do with Lane Hudson. Layne Hudson is awesome,

389
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:53,680
and I was trying to figure out how high to

390
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,880
put the bar here because he said it pretty high.

391
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,920
Sixty six points in his rookie season. Frankly, just repeating

392
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,000
that would probably be pretty impressive, but we're gonna go

393
00:21:02,039 --> 00:21:04,359
over that. I'm gonna say he clears a seventy two

394
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,920
point pace, which is a pretty big improvement from what

395
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,799
he already did. But I think that he's that good.

396
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,640
So both of these are optimistic for their young players.

397
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,119
Which one you're gonna hold me too, Jesse.

398
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 2: Boy, I think demoedoph clearing a sixty five point pace

399
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,759
that I I think that's gonna happen, So I can't

400
00:21:26,839 --> 00:21:29,079
really hold you against I'm not going to hold you

401
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,319
to that one. I'm gonna say there's a better chance

402
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,599
of Lane Hudson having a little bit of regression after

403
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,480
his amazing first year, even though there's it's not that

404
00:21:38,519 --> 00:21:41,039
I don't believe in him, but probably a better chance

405
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,839
that he'd have regression to me than that Demidov doesn't

406
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,519
do what I think he's going to be doing. All right,

407
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,720
Ottawa Senators, not much to remark upon since the mid

408
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,400
July recording. They signed Yan Yenick. And I've got two

409
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,920
hot takes. I covered Josh Norris half of that Norris

410
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,920
Cousins trade. Let's do the Cousins half. I say he'll

411
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,799
be top five in power play tom and ies. To

412
00:22:06,799 --> 00:22:10,279
be clear for the Senators, he'l that he'll basically be

413
00:22:10,279 --> 00:22:12,640
a power play one guy for the team. They got

414
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,839
some good power play guys, so Cousins would have to

415
00:22:14,839 --> 00:22:18,960
break into that slot. And the other is yea kimp Chuck.

416
00:22:19,039 --> 00:22:22,640
Carter Keimpchuk is gonna come up. He'll be his role

417
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,839
will be expanded late in the season. He will be

418
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,680
top four in defenseman minutes for the team after the Olympics.

419
00:22:28,839 --> 00:22:30,880
So for the last part of the season, I'm saying

420
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,920
he's gonna grab a big role for the big club.

421
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,839
Victor these hot takes, you're gonna hold me against either

422
00:22:37,839 --> 00:22:38,559
one of these.

423
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely hold you to one of them. That's the

424
00:22:43,559 --> 00:22:48,200
game here. So I think I'm very skeptical of Cousins

425
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,319
just in general. He's always left me wanting, But I

426
00:22:51,319 --> 00:22:53,359
think being top five and power play Tom and Ice

427
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,920
is pretty low bar considering. I think all he has

428
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,839
to do is probably be Jakes Anderson, which might be hard.

429
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,839
I think Sanderson's going to take a step forward, but Stute,

430
00:23:04,839 --> 00:23:07,519
slib Atherson, Ko Chuck, I think are pretty locked in there,

431
00:23:07,599 --> 00:23:12,119
so he only has to be better than one one

432
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:17,119
other guy. I think the Yakamchuck is pretty interesting. I

433
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,599
think that he's a really fun player, but also has

434
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:25,039
a lot to learn away from the puck still and defensively,

435
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,000
I think if Ottawa wants to continue to be a

436
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:31,640
playoff team where they want to push towards being really competitive,

437
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,119
I think that he's going to struggle a little bit.

438
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,839
Is Yakamchuck with the defensive aspect of the game, and

439
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,119
I think that might limit some of his opportunities. So

440
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,279
I'll hold you to the Yakamchuck one. I think that's

441
00:23:43,319 --> 00:23:46,279
going to be a little harder to accomplish, but I'd

442
00:23:46,279 --> 00:23:48,240
really love to see it. Would be fun, although I

443
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,559
have invested heavily on Jake Sanderson in a couple of places,

444
00:23:51,599 --> 00:23:53,440
so for that reason, I don't want it to happen,

445
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,279
but I think it's pretty pretty plausible. Jesse. Let's move

446
00:23:57,319 --> 00:24:00,599
on to the Tampa Bay Lightning. We recorded an early September,

447
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,440
so not that long ago. No real catchup for that one.

448
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,559
My hot taches revolve around Jake Genzl and Oliver buick Strand.

449
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,440
So Gensel has we know, he's been in some really

450
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:16,119
good situations and he's had some really good point paces

451
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:22,960
with Tampa and Pittsburgh before that. I think that he

452
00:24:23,079 --> 00:24:25,079
has a little bit more to give, and I think

453
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,240
that he's gonna out point braidon Point this year, and

454
00:24:28,279 --> 00:24:32,279
so that's where I'm gonna put my first one. He

455
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,160
was close last season. Gensel had eighty points in eighty

456
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,440
games and bradon Point had eighty two points in seventy

457
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,799
seven games, so a little bit higher point pace there.

458
00:24:41,519 --> 00:24:44,160
I think that Gensel They're both going to be on

459
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,839
the top power play. So this is just really a

460
00:24:45,839 --> 00:24:49,640
matter of how much more can Gensel get? Can he

461
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,279
get up there? I think it's going to be close,

462
00:24:52,039 --> 00:24:55,039
but I think that Genzil can do it. The other

463
00:24:55,079 --> 00:24:57,720
one that I'm really excited about is Oliver b york Strand,

464
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,200
and I'm really excited to see how he's gone to

465
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,519
fit into this new team. He's been a pretty productive

466
00:25:04,759 --> 00:25:07,440
depth type of score. I think the question is can

467
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,839
he do more? Can he get more opportunity? Can he

468
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,480
dictate that we saw a little bit last season. He's

469
00:25:13,519 --> 00:25:17,960
been this very meh, forty five to sixty sixty five

470
00:25:18,079 --> 00:25:21,039
ish point player. But I think that he can fit

471
00:25:21,079 --> 00:25:22,559
in and do it a little bit more so. If

472
00:25:22,559 --> 00:25:25,519
he can, then I think that will be He'll be

473
00:25:25,519 --> 00:25:28,000
a really interesting play and redraft maybe someone to take

474
00:25:28,079 --> 00:25:31,359
later on in your drafts. But his career high is

475
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,000
a sixty four point pace. I'm going to say he

476
00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:36,079
gets over that in Tampa this year. Over sixty four

477
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,279
point pace career high. I think if he can get

478
00:25:39,279 --> 00:25:41,480
on that top power play even for a little bit

479
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,960
of time, then he has a pretty decent chance of

480
00:25:44,039 --> 00:25:46,559
doing that. He the question is where he plays at

481
00:25:46,559 --> 00:25:49,400
even strength. I think that there's a second line spot

482
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,119
for him if he can take it. There's also some

483
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,359
other competition for that, and it's unlikely he gets on

484
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,920
the top power play without an injury, So that would

485
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,880
be good for his opportunity, but also would be a

486
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,400
little bit roughid he wouldn't have as good a players

487
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,000
to play with Jesse, which one you want? Holme me

488
00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:04,400
to Gonzel or byork Strand.

489
00:26:06,079 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 2: Huh, both of them are These are both really good

490
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,279
hot takes, I feel like because both of them have

491
00:26:13,599 --> 00:26:16,759
just the tempting plausibility of yeah, that could happen, but

492
00:26:17,559 --> 00:26:22,519
still less likely than likely. Now. The thing the thought

493
00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:26,160
of our b yorick Strand is he's always been on

494
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,960
teams that are probably worse than the team he's on now.

495
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,480
I think that his role could be a little bit

496
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,440
less than it is right now. Actually, his time last

497
00:26:37,519 --> 00:26:39,559
year in Tampa and yeah, he was just fitting in

498
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,880
after mid season, but he had his lowest average time

499
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:48,599
on ice of his career, only fourteen minutes average time

500
00:26:48,599 --> 00:26:50,119
on ice when he was there, even though he had

501
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,720
half point per game. What he does. One thing that

502
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,519
york Strand is underrated for is how healthy he stays.

503
00:26:58,599 --> 00:27:01,880
He's really only had one year where he missed significant

504
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:07,000
time since twenty seventeen eighteen. But he's also thirty and

505
00:27:07,799 --> 00:27:10,680
there could be some concerns there, So I just a

506
00:27:10,799 --> 00:27:14,400
career high for him is more than I dare expect

507
00:27:14,559 --> 00:27:17,440
at this point. There's so many ways that he could

508
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,160
fall below the fifty nine. The sixty four fifty nine

509
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,759
is his career high. So to see that major escalation,

510
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,839
I just don't see it. So I'll go with the

511
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:31,119
Oliver Yorkstrand take and onto the Toronto Maple Leaves that

512
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,279
was recorded very recently, So no major news.

513
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 3: There.

514
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 2: Two potential hot takes. Mattie Nye's top three in scoring.

515
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,400
That means of the surviving three of the core four,

516
00:27:42,519 --> 00:27:45,599
he's got to surpass one of them in the scoring,

517
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,079
maybe John Tavares, who can say. And the second is

518
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,319
that Morgan Riley, even with that big contract post Olympic break,

519
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,720
does not lead Toronto d in power play Tom and Ies,

520
00:27:57,759 --> 00:28:01,319
it's the field versus Morgan Riley. I think Morgan Riley

521
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,680
is going to get edged out at least for that

522
00:28:04,799 --> 00:28:07,839
part of the season. Victor Which one of these do

523
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,640
you find least plausible?

524
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,319
Speaker 3: I also think these are good. I think that they're

525
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:19,039
both on the edge of being plausible. I think they

526
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,359
can absolutely happen, but also unlikely just based on inertia

527
00:28:23,559 --> 00:28:28,720
for Riley and based on previous performances for Nys, I

528
00:28:28,759 --> 00:28:33,960
mean with Marner gone, but's obviously a question of Kneelander, Matthews, Tavares.

529
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,559
I can't imagine Nis passing Matthews and Tavares. But sorry

530
00:28:38,599 --> 00:28:42,000
Matthews and Nilander, but Tavares is probably the one that

531
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:45,200
you're banking on he could pass. I think that's also

532
00:28:45,319 --> 00:28:49,799
still unlikely, even though Tavares is thirty five, but he's

533
00:28:49,799 --> 00:28:52,480
still really smart and knows how to get to his spots.

534
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,720
And I think that Nis will come up. Tavares probably

535
00:28:55,759 --> 00:28:58,000
will stay similar or regress a little bit, and so

536
00:28:58,079 --> 00:28:59,759
I think it'll be close. But I will take that

537
00:28:59,799 --> 00:29:02,119
one because I think it's a little bit more plausible

538
00:29:02,759 --> 00:29:07,279
that Nys finishes behind Tavars, and there's a little bit

539
00:29:07,279 --> 00:29:09,839
more flexibility there, So we'll go with that one.

540
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 2: Jesse, very good. Let's take a break and come right back.

541
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 3: What are you selfish shocking? That's right, selfish hocking, break.

542
00:29:25,759 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 2: It down, skate fuck, don't got It's still gonna be there,

543
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,759
and you've got jumps one taking coast to coast talking

544
00:29:31,839 --> 00:29:34,640
for angles, are still shocking? Bad bounce that's a good breakaway,

545
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:40,920
got to get the Bounced Boys the Metro Division last,

546
00:29:41,079 --> 00:29:43,599
and before that we will preview maybe not last, in

547
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,240
our hearts, we start with the Carolina Rock Me like

548
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,079
a Hurricanes. What do you got?

549
00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:53,839
Speaker 3: Yeah? No updates on this one. We recorded middle of July,

550
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,359
and I have a real soft spot for a couple

551
00:29:57,359 --> 00:29:59,720
of these young players, and I'm gonna go with them

552
00:29:59,839 --> 00:30:02,519
for my hot take. I was so impressed with what

553
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,920
Jackson Blake did last year. I thought that he would

554
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,680
be good. I didn't think that he would be that.

555
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,200
I didn't think he would play as many games as

556
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,079
he did basically the whole season last year in the NHL,

557
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,400
and I thought that it might take him a little

558
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,519
bit longer to climb up the lineup. But he was

559
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,680
playing top line, top power play towards the end of

560
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,720
the season, so I think he can take an even

561
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,200
bigger step forward. Jackson Blake, even though he had a

562
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,880
really solid season and tidy his scoring was even better

563
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,799
because he's really good at play, driving and takeaways. But

564
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,759
he ended up with only a thirty five point pace,

565
00:30:32,759 --> 00:30:37,359
which isn't as exciting, and he certainly did score some points.

566
00:30:37,359 --> 00:30:39,079
But when he's not scoring points, he doesn't do a

567
00:30:39,079 --> 00:30:42,839
whole lot. Just nineteen hits, thirty blocks, and one hundred

568
00:30:42,839 --> 00:30:45,559
and forty shots in eighty games is not very good

569
00:30:45,559 --> 00:30:47,640
bash so he was a little hard to hold at times.

570
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,200
But I think he increases that thirty five point pace

571
00:30:50,279 --> 00:30:53,200
up to fifty. I think he's shown really good chemistry

572
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,359
with those top line players in Carolina, and I think

573
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,000
he continues to play with Jervis Innaho, which is exactly

574
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,279
the place you want to be. And I think that

575
00:31:00,319 --> 00:31:02,400
if he does that all season, I can't imagine him

576
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,519
get lowering, getting lower than a fifty point pace socially

577
00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:07,799
a question of whether he'll do that. And the other

578
00:31:07,839 --> 00:31:09,799
one is Bradley Nadau. I made a hot take on

579
00:31:09,799 --> 00:31:11,359
a Doe last year. I thought he would be the

580
00:31:11,359 --> 00:31:13,599
one who would make the team and score some points,

581
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,599
but he ended up only playing two games towards the

582
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,160
very end of the season. But I still think that

583
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,519
they need to add a finisher like Nadau, and I

584
00:31:20,559 --> 00:31:23,039
think that he's a perfect compliment there and I think

585
00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:25,319
that they will give him a shot and his finishing

586
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:30,039
ability will show. So I'm going to say that Bradley

587
00:31:30,079 --> 00:31:33,000
Nadeau scores at a twenty goal pace now again back

588
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,000
to our pace conversation. That means he has to play

589
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,440
at least half the games to get to that mark.

590
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,119
But I think that they will like his scoring, and

591
00:31:40,119 --> 00:31:42,440
I think they'll put him in the lineup. So which

592
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,720
one you got, Jesse Nadeau or Jackson Blake. I think

593
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,720
I know which way you're going to go.

594
00:31:47,079 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 2: I'm going to go Na dou Victor because twenty goal

595
00:31:50,519 --> 00:31:53,720
pace is pretty impressive for a young man like that.

596
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,680
Jackson Blake, we were just talking about him not that

597
00:31:56,839 --> 00:32:00,599
long ago, So I will I'll bet for the progression

598
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,400
is not linear and it's going to take him a

599
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,000
little bit to get over that homp. I think you

600
00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:08,319
will someday, though, So let's go with Bradley Na do there.

601
00:32:09,079 --> 00:32:13,400
The Columbus Blue Jackets were recorded two months ago, but

602
00:32:13,839 --> 00:32:17,680
they traded for Yvon Fettatov in the meantime. I think

603
00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:21,079
that's a significant trade for them, new guy in the

604
00:32:21,119 --> 00:32:25,119
mix with Jet Greeves and Elvis murz Lickins for their

605
00:32:25,119 --> 00:32:29,640
goalie situation. Now my hot take, this is spicy. This

606
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:33,519
is spicy. I think this team has so many young

607
00:32:33,559 --> 00:32:36,359
guys on the rise and so many guys who already

608
00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:40,319
are performing. Last year, the high end goals for this

609
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,680
for any player on the team was thirty one. I

610
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,680
think we're going to have three thirty two plus goal

611
00:32:45,759 --> 00:32:50,200
scorers this year. Let's open it up. Let's see the Fantillies,

612
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:54,400
let's see the Kent Johnson's. All these guys get an

613
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,400
opportunity and a little bit of progression, more progression from

614
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:04,759
this team. On the defensive end of things, Dante Fabreau

615
00:33:05,119 --> 00:33:10,640
has made a comeback for this defense career comeback since

616
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,000
he's come to Columbus. I feel and top two scoring

617
00:33:14,119 --> 00:33:17,160
defenseman on this team for this year is my take

618
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:20,480
that he is going to move up there. Obviously number

619
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,880
one is a little difficult to displace, but the other

620
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:28,119
defenseman on this seem passable. So what do you think, Victor?

621
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,480
I think I know which one you're doing, But once

622
00:33:30,519 --> 00:33:31,279
you go ahead and tell.

623
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 3: People, YEP, I think that Fabria one is much more likely.

624
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,640
I think that that's that's pretty likely, so I'll not

625
00:33:40,759 --> 00:33:44,839
pick that one. The goalscorer one is interesting. I think

626
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,319
maybe what I'm looking at shows vantill He had thirty

627
00:33:47,319 --> 00:33:49,400
two last year, which I don't think changes your take

628
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,480
too much because there was a thirty one to thirty two,

629
00:33:51,559 --> 00:33:54,440
and then the rest were a bit lower twenty four

630
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,279
to twenty three, twenty two, nineteen. So I think basically

631
00:33:58,319 --> 00:34:01,200
you're saying those two will probably hold at least steady

632
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,640
or be a little bit over that, and then someone

633
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,119
else is going to join that club. And that's someone else.

634
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,400
There's some good candidates. Ken Johnson certainly seems like he could.

635
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,119
I don't think as much as I love Zach Warnsky,

636
00:34:12,159 --> 00:34:13,320
I don't think he can get all the way up

637
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,400
to thirty two, So he's probably not one of the

638
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,679
goal scorers. But they got to meetri Varankov, Sean Monaghan,

639
00:34:20,199 --> 00:34:22,360
They got a lot of different options who could pump

640
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,840
up to that. I don't think Matthew Olivier can quit

641
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,000
that high with his time on ice, but there's a

642
00:34:28,039 --> 00:34:29,639
couple of options there. But I think it's a little

643
00:34:29,679 --> 00:34:31,239
less likely. If anyone was going to do it, I

644
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,400
would imagine it would be Kent Johnson, and I think

645
00:34:33,519 --> 00:34:35,920
he is due for an increase, but I feel like

646
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,159
he'll continue to score more Assistan points. But I think

647
00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:41,519
that one's going to be right on the border of plausible,

648
00:34:41,639 --> 00:34:43,639
So I'll hold you to that one. I think it's

649
00:34:43,679 --> 00:34:46,199
a good one. Let's move on to New Jersey. We

650
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,800
recorded at the end of September, so not much catch

651
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,400
up there. But my hot takes had to do with

652
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,239
two of my favorite players on this team, Jack Hughes.

653
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,039
He's the one who I picked for the intro and

654
00:34:57,119 --> 00:35:02,000
our intro music. I love him. He's obviously battled injuries

655
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,800
and hasn't ever quite hit the actual point numbers. He's

656
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,960
had really high point paces, but he has never hit

657
00:35:10,119 --> 00:35:12,480
one hundred points Jesse. So that's what my hot take

658
00:35:12,599 --> 00:35:14,920
is going to be, is that Jack Hughes hits one

659
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,360
hundred plus points. That's going to be a lot. He

660
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,519
hit ninety nine in twenty two to twenty three, and

661
00:35:21,559 --> 00:35:24,199
then the past couple seasons he's had seventy four and

662
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:28,119
seventy points. So even though his point paces go pretty high,

663
00:35:28,199 --> 00:35:30,239
he's had a couple near one hundred and one over

664
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,760
one hundred, he's never quit hit that mark. I think

665
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,599
this is a year. I think his off season training

666
00:35:34,639 --> 00:35:38,480
and I think he's talked about being stronger and less

667
00:35:38,559 --> 00:35:41,119
of injury prone, which has always been He's quite aware

668
00:35:41,119 --> 00:35:43,559
of that, putting himself in positions to get hit awkwardly,

669
00:35:44,039 --> 00:35:47,800
so I think he does it. The other one is

670
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,719
related to Dougie Hamilton, and I really love Dougie Hamilton.

671
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,800
He's of such a solid Priffs guy, even if he's

672
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,679
not getting all the power play time. And we note

673
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,960
that there's a Luke Hughes problem for him on this team.

674
00:36:00,599 --> 00:36:03,639
But some people may not realize this, but Dougie Hamilton

675
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,000
continues to get more power play time and a lot

676
00:36:06,039 --> 00:36:08,320
more power play time than Luke Hughes. Even though Hughes

677
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,039
did actually finish with more power play points last season

678
00:36:11,119 --> 00:36:15,199
than Dougie in less time, Dougie still got more of

679
00:36:15,199 --> 00:36:19,440
the opportunity and the point paces were similar forty four

680
00:36:19,559 --> 00:36:22,920
for Hughes forty for Dougie, and so I think that

681
00:36:24,039 --> 00:36:25,679
actually I think I'm reading that wrong. I think they

682
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:30,519
both had fifty point paces. Anyways, I think that Hamilton

683
00:36:30,639 --> 00:36:32,480
is going to continue to have more power play time

684
00:36:32,519 --> 00:36:35,119
loss than Luke Hughes. I think he continues to earn

685
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:39,400
more opportunity from the coach and it might be handed

686
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,760
in his name, but I think bottom line is Dougie's

687
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,039
going to finish with more average power play toomin Ice

688
00:36:44,119 --> 00:36:46,280
than Luke Cues. Which one of these do you want

689
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:46,639
to hold me to.

690
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 2: Jesse Aw It's all Hughes all the time with this team.

691
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,400
I think that Dougie Hamilton will finish with more time

692
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,280
on I power Play Tom and Ice than Luke Cues.

693
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,280
As long as they have Dougie Hamilton, that seems to

694
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,280
be what they like doing over there. And I think

695
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,599
that Jack Hughes scoring over one hundred points the year

696
00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:12,880
is coming. It's going to happen, but so far, guessing

697
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,639
against it has been a pretty effective strategy because Old

698
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,599
Jack has not been able to stay out there for

699
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,800
the whole season. So even though it would not be

700
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:26,639
surprising in the least for that to happen, I still

701
00:37:26,679 --> 00:37:29,880
think it is less likely to happen than not, just

702
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,039
because of availability, and then of course it's got to

703
00:37:33,039 --> 00:37:37,280
be performance on top of that. So Jack Hughes one

704
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:41,000
hundred plus points total is the one to hold you on.

705
00:37:41,519 --> 00:37:44,119
The New York Calendars were another pre draft, pre free

706
00:37:44,119 --> 00:37:49,039
agency preview, and they drafted, of course famously, Matthew Shaffer,

707
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:53,119
Victor Eckland, Kashawn Hison. What a big haul they got.

708
00:37:53,199 --> 00:37:56,840
They traded Noah Dobson, Noah freaking Dobson for a Meil

709
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,000
Heineman and some pretty juicy fix some of which already used.

710
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:03,760
Maxim Ziplo Cooff signed from overseas and another one of

711
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:08,079
the biggest guys coming over from Europe for the new year.

712
00:38:08,199 --> 00:38:11,480
They re signed Tony DiAngelo. They signed Jonathan drew On,

713
00:38:11,639 --> 00:38:15,920
they signed big save Dave Ridditch and Ethan Baar. So

714
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:19,679
they did a lot of surgery on that team. And

715
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,199
of course when we were recorded, they'd already parted ways

716
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,239
with lou Lamborello. So this is a team in the

717
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:30,079
middle of a facelift. The hot takes anders Lee top

718
00:38:30,159 --> 00:38:35,280
two in Islanders scoring. He is undefeatable. He continues on.

719
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,760
Maybe this is hot take, maybe it's not. Maybe it's

720
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,239
just we all have to remember that anders Lee continues

721
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,679
to exist and score a whole lot on the island.

722
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,400
But I will say top two in Islanders scoring for

723
00:38:46,519 --> 00:38:50,360
the coming year. And the other Ilia Sarokan, who has

724
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,320
been up and down a little bit over the years,

725
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,519
leads the NHL in shutouts this year. I think that's

726
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,239
you say, anybody's going to lead the NHL in shutouts,

727
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,039
You're going out on a limb a little bit. So

728
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:02,440
Victor which one of those you gonna do?

729
00:39:03,679 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I these are interesting. I hate betting on goalie

730
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,960
things in general, just because they're so random, and shutouts

731
00:39:12,039 --> 00:39:15,079
are extremely random, right. All it takes is a random

732
00:39:15,079 --> 00:39:19,039
deflection and the shoutout is gone, even after a stellar performance.

733
00:39:19,079 --> 00:39:20,960
I think I do think Sroken is the best goalie

734
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,519
in the league, but he doesn't play for the best

735
00:39:23,519 --> 00:39:25,800
team or even a good team, so that was gonna

736
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:29,280
make it hard to get shutouts. I think Lee is

737
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,440
an underappreciated aging veteran who continues to put up at

738
00:39:33,519 --> 00:39:38,519
least serviceable numbers. I think bo Horvat's gonna really come

739
00:39:38,559 --> 00:39:42,159
around and be really good. And I think that Matt

740
00:39:42,199 --> 00:39:47,639
Barzal is also gonna be really good and probably be

741
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,519
even better. But that's gonna be close. There's some other

742
00:39:51,559 --> 00:39:54,400
options that might take step forwards, like someone holds from

743
00:39:55,199 --> 00:39:58,639
or I don't know, Ziplokoff. I doubt any of these

744
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,360
younger guys like shaving Off do that, but I think

745
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,280
it's I think it's close, and I think that both

746
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:08,519
of these are reasonable. I think that I'm probably going

747
00:40:08,599 --> 00:40:10,920
to just lean with Soroken, even though I think I

748
00:40:11,079 --> 00:40:13,679
probably would be safe with either of these frankly, which

749
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:17,079
I appreciate, but I think that it's a little less

750
00:40:17,199 --> 00:40:19,519
likely to lead the league and shut out, so that's

751
00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:21,960
a little harder to achieve. And I think mars out

752
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,159
would beat Lee, but he also has a lot of

753
00:40:24,199 --> 00:40:28,239
variability in his projection with his injuries and his inconsistent plays.

754
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:32,039
I think the easier one for me is to take Stroken.

755
00:40:33,559 --> 00:40:36,000
All right, let's talk about the Rangers. So the Rangers

756
00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:39,280
have we just recorded early August. No real catchup for them.

757
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,039
They had some interesting they have some interesting players, They

758
00:40:42,079 --> 00:40:45,880
were reconfiguring their lines. They were, as we all know,

759
00:40:46,119 --> 00:40:50,800
awful last year, and I think that they're really in general,

760
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,199
I would say that they're due for a bounce back

761
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,960
this season. I think that they're going to be, at

762
00:40:56,039 --> 00:40:58,519
least offensively pretty good. I think that they're still going

763
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:01,079
to have some struggle with defense, but then with one

764
00:41:01,119 --> 00:41:02,920
of the best goalies in the world, he cleans up

765
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,719
a lot of those problems. So I think they made

766
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,480
some improvements defensively with Gavikov, he should be decent. But

767
00:41:09,519 --> 00:41:11,960
then some of their left side looks not great with

768
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,199
Carson Susi and or Jovak and Ninen so I think

769
00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:18,400
that they might struggle defensively, but offensively, I think that

770
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,920
there's an underappreciated player that I want to highlight, and

771
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,800
that's Will Cooley. See you why lle if you're scoring

772
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,800
at home and can't find him. I think he's going

773
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,800
to be really good this season. He's a bash master.

774
00:41:31,159 --> 00:41:35,519
People probably know him for that. But he only had

775
00:41:35,599 --> 00:41:40,480
twenty forty five points, twenty goals, twenty five assists. I

776
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,840
say only that's a pretty good season for the young man.

777
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,719
Second year, and he increases goal total from thirteen to twenty,

778
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,960
and he increases points from twenty one to forty five.

779
00:41:49,679 --> 00:41:51,920
I think there's a second line spot for him. There

780
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,599
might even be a net front power play position for

781
00:41:54,639 --> 00:41:56,119
him if they want to use him that way. He's

782
00:41:56,199 --> 00:41:59,199
very good at doing that. Last season he only had

783
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,559
three power play point points. He probably won't get too

784
00:42:01,599 --> 00:42:04,639
many more than that, but he could, if everything goes right,

785
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,840
really take off. And I think that he's gonna in

786
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:14,199
fantasy leagues be top three for your on your rangers,

787
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,960
and so last season, this is going to be tidy settings.

788
00:42:17,079 --> 00:42:21,360
Last season, looking at who the players were, it was JT.

789
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,800
Miller at six point sixty three, or Timmy Paneren at

790
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,360
six point twenty six, Adam Fox at six point oh three,

791
00:42:26,559 --> 00:42:29,679
Vincent Trocheck at five point nine to eight because Avantage

792
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,840
ad at five point oh seven, and then Will Cooley

793
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,639
at four point eight, who was almost a full point

794
00:42:34,639 --> 00:42:38,360
above Alexis Lafrinier. If you're scoring at home, I think

795
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,920
that Miller and Paneren are locks. I think that Cooley

796
00:42:43,039 --> 00:42:46,679
with all of his peripherals could push up to the

797
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,320
Vincent Trocheck area, and especially if he's playing with him,

798
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,079
I think that'll really help. So this is a big jump,

799
00:42:53,119 --> 00:42:55,239
but I think that he could jump a couple of spots.

800
00:42:55,599 --> 00:42:57,400
Certainly he can jump the benaje at I think that

801
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,159
will be easy. But then the question is can he

802
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,800
jump either Fox or Trocheck. That'll be hard for the

803
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,199
next one on the team. So I'm giving you a

804
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,000
little bit of a somewhat of an easy one there, Jesse,

805
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:10,440
and the other one has to relate to Vincent Trocheck.

806
00:43:10,639 --> 00:43:12,840
He's had some up and down seasons. It seems like

807
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,679
he has these seasons where he fluctuates back and forth,

808
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,119
and every once in a while, I have this really

809
00:43:17,119 --> 00:43:20,199
big season, but I think so many things went wrong

810
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,480
for New York last year. I think Vincent Trochick gets

811
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:27,159
back to being good, and he's had three seasons over

812
00:43:27,199 --> 00:43:29,079
a seventy point pace. I think he gets there, but

813
00:43:29,079 --> 00:43:31,480
I'm gonna say he gets over a sixty eight point pace.

814
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,559
So basically, sixty nine points are up and I then

815
00:43:35,599 --> 00:43:37,320
I win. But I think it's going to be close.

816
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:41,039
He was had fifty nine points last point pace last season.

817
00:43:41,079 --> 00:43:43,480
He had sixty three two years ago and fifty two

818
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,400
three or four years ago, So there have been some

819
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,719
lean years for Vincent Trocheck. But I'm thinking I'm saying

820
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,119
this is going to be one of the better ones. Jesse,

821
00:43:51,159 --> 00:43:51,639
what do you think?

822
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 2: Boy? I always am in favor of Vincent Trocheck, so

823
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,039
I'm not going to go against him on this one.

824
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:06,360
I will instead say Will Cooley has reached Cooley high tide,

825
00:44:07,039 --> 00:44:11,800
and while I do not doubt him for his future,

826
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,719
I don't think he's going to get in top three

827
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,000
in Fantasy points. I think it's a bridge too far

828
00:44:18,159 --> 00:44:20,639
for him with the other talent that's on that team.

829
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:24,840
So I'm going to go against Will Cooley as the

830
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,760
one I'll hold you against. All right, then we will

831
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:32,519
go into the Philadelphia Flyers and say that they drafted

832
00:44:32,519 --> 00:44:36,039
Porter Marton jack Nesbitt, because this has been since June

833
00:44:36,079 --> 00:44:39,280
that were recorded. They traded away von Feedotov. We just

834
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,840
talked about that on the Columbus side, and the hot

835
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:47,119
takes Victor going strong here. I think we're all under

836
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:51,159
estimating Coachurier. Sean Couturier. He's going to be back now

837
00:44:51,159 --> 00:44:54,119
that he's actually on speaking terms with his coach. He's

838
00:44:54,159 --> 00:44:57,239
going to become the sixty five point Couturier that is

839
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,920
not peak, but is a whole lot better than what

840
00:45:00,039 --> 00:45:02,280
we've been seeing in the last couple of years. And

841
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,039
of course that injury that took him out for the

842
00:45:05,079 --> 00:45:10,599
whole season was quite extreme on his performance. And then

843
00:45:10,679 --> 00:45:15,159
the second one one hundred point Mitchkoff. It is strong,

844
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,079
but who is going to say that Mitchkoff can't do

845
00:45:18,119 --> 00:45:21,760
it because that guy is crazy with the talent. And

846
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,000
now the Couturi is actually going to get some assists

847
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:28,280
that should help him as well, Victor, which one of

848
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,519
these is less likely for you.

849
00:45:33,159 --> 00:45:35,119
Speaker 3: That is a lofty goal for meach Cough, but it

850
00:45:35,159 --> 00:45:37,320
also does seem hard to cap the young man. He

851
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:44,119
seems like a very explosive score. I think the less

852
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,440
likely thing is probably Sean Coturier. I do think that

853
00:45:47,559 --> 00:45:52,039
he's been a little bit maligned based on his situation,

854
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,719
but he hasn't scored over a seventy point pace in

855
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,239
four years now, and I was a couple times he

856
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,719
did that, and he's older. I think that this team

857
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,000
is really in transition, trying to figure out what they're doing.

858
00:46:06,119 --> 00:46:09,639
So I think neither room is going to happen. So

859
00:46:09,679 --> 00:46:12,599
I appreciate you giving me good choices here because I

860
00:46:12,639 --> 00:46:15,320
think I love mitchkov but one hundred point is a lot,

861
00:46:15,559 --> 00:46:18,960
So I think that probably won't happen. But I am

862
00:46:19,079 --> 00:46:22,239
less confident in voting against that than I am against Katurier.

863
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,239
I love Katurier, and I hope he rebounds, but I'm

864
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,920
skeptical that he can get up to sixty five point pace.

865
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,519
Or you're saying sixty five points that's even less likely.

866
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:35,599
All Right, I'm good with that. Let's move on to

867
00:46:36,039 --> 00:46:38,840
the Pittsburgh Penguins. We recorded back in early May. A

868
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,119
lot of things have happened. They drafted Ben Kendall, they

869
00:46:41,199 --> 00:46:46,880
signed Alex Alexeiev Anthony Mantha, Caleb Jones, Raphael Harvey Pinard,

870
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,880
they traded away in Adelkovich, Matt Dumba, and they traded

871
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,039
for or They traded for Dumba and Archers sheilovs PSA.

872
00:46:54,159 --> 00:46:56,440
For She Loves, I would not go out trying to

873
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,400
acquire him. And if you have him, this is the

874
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,599
time to trade him. This is the time to get

875
00:47:00,599 --> 00:47:02,039
what you can for him. Because he just won the

876
00:47:02,039 --> 00:47:05,000
Calder Cup in the AHL. He looked really great down there,

877
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,920
but I just am skeptical that he's a solid NHL goalie.

878
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:09,840
Every time you've seen him up he seems to struggle

879
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,960
with the pace. So that's not what I'm gonna talk about, though,

880
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,960
caause I think that's I'm not sure that there's even

881
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:17,800
a good take for what She Loves is going to

882
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,599
do this year because the situation in NATI is murky.

883
00:47:20,679 --> 00:47:23,800
But I'm gonna say a couple of things, a couple

884
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,960
of players that I like, and try to bring some

885
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,079
positivity to the Pittsburgh Penguins, which I think have struggled

886
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,519
to find some recently. So I'm going to say that

887
00:47:32,639 --> 00:47:36,639
Brian rust Is continues to be awesome. Brian rust Is awesome.

888
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:40,519
He is a really steady producer, he had that down

889
00:47:40,559 --> 00:47:43,079
year a few years ago, but all in all, he's

890
00:47:43,079 --> 00:47:46,000
really good. He had a seventy four point pace last season,

891
00:47:46,039 --> 00:47:48,920
seventy five point or seventy four two years ago, seventy

892
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,159
five last season, and then he almost hit point per

893
00:47:51,199 --> 00:47:53,760
game four years ago. I'm going to say that he

894
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,360
continues to have a seventy five point pace plus, which

895
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,760
may seem like not a lot, but the fact is

896
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,599
that he's not dealing. He's not doesn't have a lot

897
00:48:00,599 --> 00:48:04,119
to work with in Pittsburgh, and I feel like he

898
00:48:04,199 --> 00:48:07,119
might get traded. So I'm going to caveat this that

899
00:48:07,199 --> 00:48:10,800
this only is in play until the trade, until he's traded.

900
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,880
If he is traded, if he goes the whole season,

901
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,679
then you can have the whole seventy five point pace.

902
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,960
But if he gets traded, we'll cap it at his

903
00:48:17,039 --> 00:48:20,280
time in Pittsburgh. So the other one has to do

904
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,639
with Eric Carlson. Carlson has been so bad since going

905
00:48:24,639 --> 00:48:28,199
to Pittsburgh. It's really confusing. He seems like he's deferring

906
00:48:28,199 --> 00:48:30,000
to all the other guys on the team. But I

907
00:48:30,039 --> 00:48:32,559
think this is the season that he gets back on track.

908
00:48:33,079 --> 00:48:36,880
I think he will, He'll get a little bit more,

909
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,880
take more charge of his opportunities, more of the playmaking,

910
00:48:42,079 --> 00:48:45,000
stop being so deferential, and I think that will really

911
00:48:45,039 --> 00:48:48,760
help him get more points. And I think that it's

912
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,719
also possible that he gets traded, but in this case,

913
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,320
I think it might work to his favor. So I'm

914
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,719
not gonna I'm not going to cap this on being traded.

915
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,320
He has this season and next season still at ten million,

916
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,760
and then he's UFA, so that that might play into

917
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,079
him getting traded this year with it's easier to retain

918
00:49:04,079 --> 00:49:05,719
that money towards the end of the contract. So I'm

919
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,239
gonna say Carlson gets back over a sixty five point

920
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:11,800
pace and Brian rust will have seventy five point pacer

921
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:17,239
over on Pittsburgh. One more thing about Carlson, Aside from

922
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,360
that one hundred and one point pay season in San Jose,

923
00:49:19,559 --> 00:49:21,519
he hasn't been over a sixty five point pace since

924
00:49:21,559 --> 00:49:24,159
the twenty eighteen nineteen season, so that was a law

925
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,880
was his first season in San Jose. So this, I

926
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,239
think is a pretty big increase and I feel like

927
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,280
that's where Jesse might be going. What do you think, Jesse?

928
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:41,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I both of these are plausible situations. Yeah, I

929
00:49:41,639 --> 00:49:44,239
think rust is going to have over seventy five plus

930
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,960
point pace. I think that's very likely. Eric Carlson, best

931
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,679
thing that could happen to him, it feels like to me,

932
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,920
is that he gets traded. But even if he does,

933
00:49:53,159 --> 00:49:55,880
is he going to fall into a spot where his

934
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,239
scoring is going to take off like that? I will

935
00:49:58,519 --> 00:50:03,920
put old Eric Carlson on the less likely train and

936
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:09,239
hold you to that one. The very last team to

937
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:13,920
cover Washington Capitals, we covered them just after the draft,

938
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,719
just after free agency. Really don't have anything else to

939
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,599
say about them now at this point, but I'll give

940
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,519
the last two hot takes of the episode. Of course,

941
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:27,039
once again, I think I screwed up doing all these

942
00:50:27,079 --> 00:50:30,039
Calder vote things because we're not going to know the

943
00:50:30,079 --> 00:50:32,280
Calder voting at the end of the season. But Ryan

944
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,440
Leonard called her top three. I think that's my third

945
00:50:34,559 --> 00:50:37,559
top three, maybe my fourth, so they can't all be right.

946
00:50:37,599 --> 00:50:39,000
But I don't think he held me to all of them.

947
00:50:39,079 --> 00:50:41,400
Ryan Leonard Calder Trophy top three. I think he's going

948
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,159
to bust out in a big way. He didn't look

949
00:50:44,199 --> 00:50:46,480
completely out of place when he did come up at

950
00:50:46,519 --> 00:50:48,519
the end of the season and into the playoffs last year,

951
00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:53,880
didn't thrive, but look like somebody as a guy playing

952
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,239
his first few games, who's going to play some pretty

953
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,519
good games after that. And then I will never quit

954
00:50:59,559 --> 00:51:02,360
Anthony Avilion. Remember I've been on the Pavilier train ever

955
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,079
since he was an Islander and early on, just because

956
00:51:06,119 --> 00:51:09,440
it's burned into my retinas the way that he blew

957
00:51:09,519 --> 00:51:13,800
up the capitals in that bubble series back in twenty twenty.

958
00:51:14,639 --> 00:51:16,920
And I think he's going to have a career high

959
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,400
end scoring, which would be a modest forty one points.

960
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,280
But considering the role he's in now and the road

961
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,039
he's had, I think anybody would say that's probably a

962
00:51:26,079 --> 00:51:28,519
little bit of a bull take at this point, Victor,

963
00:51:28,639 --> 00:51:30,760
which one of these are you going to hold me too?

964
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,639
As the final one of the day.

965
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:37,840
Speaker 3: Jesse, I really like both of these for me, because

966
00:51:39,119 --> 00:51:41,960
as much as you don't want to quit Pavilier, I

967
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,800
want to quit ever talking or thinking about Anthony Pavillier

968
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,079
because he's one of those players when you watch him,

969
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:49,400
he seems good and you think he can do more,

970
00:51:49,519 --> 00:51:51,760
and then you realize that's just never who he's going

971
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,360
to be. He's just not that guy like he, like

972
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,719
you said, forty points is his max. He's one of

973
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,079
these guys that you look at and everywhere he goes

974
00:51:59,119 --> 00:52:02,599
he gets good deployment. He had good deployment in New York,

975
00:52:02,639 --> 00:52:05,760
he had good deployment in Vancouver, in Chicago, and he sucks.

976
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,840
I'm sorry, Like, he's just not that good in terms

977
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,559
of us being a profession Obviously he's better than ninety

978
00:52:10,639 --> 00:52:13,079
nine percent of us or whatever, but he he doesn't

979
00:52:13,079 --> 00:52:15,880
do as much as you would like in his situation.

980
00:52:16,079 --> 00:52:18,920
So I think, but I'm gonna go one better for you, Jesse.

981
00:52:19,039 --> 00:52:21,000
I'm going to say that neither of these things are

982
00:52:21,039 --> 00:52:24,079
going to happen, because as much as I like Ryan Leonard,

983
00:52:24,159 --> 00:52:26,840
I do think he's gonna struggle a little bit to

984
00:52:28,199 --> 00:52:30,639
just fully translate. And I think that they're gonna want him.

985
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,119
And I don't know that this is permanently where he

986
00:52:33,159 --> 00:52:34,880
will be, because I do think he has more skill

987
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:36,239
than this. But I think that they're going to be

988
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,440
content to let him just play on the third line,

989
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,559
help drive that line, help be a little menace down

990
00:52:41,599 --> 00:52:44,760
there against lesser competition, and not put him up in

991
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,000
the top six and stress him a little bit more

992
00:52:47,039 --> 00:52:49,519
than is needed, because Washington should be a really good team.

993
00:52:49,519 --> 00:52:51,360
I don't know that they win the division again, but

994
00:52:51,519 --> 00:52:53,760
I think that they should be a really good team,

995
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,840
and there's no reason to pump him up towards the

996
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:58,760
top of the lineup and have him struggle. I think

997
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,960
he'll I think he'll our other third lines, but depends

998
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,360
on how they use him. I think that he's just

999
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,039
not going to get enough points to be in that

1000
00:53:07,119 --> 00:53:10,760
conversation of Calder votes. Though I think he's great and

1001
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,440
I think that his upside remains tremendous. So yeah, we're

1002
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,719
gonna go on a bang and with the last one,

1003
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:18,039
I'm holding you to both Jesse.

1004
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,199
Speaker 2: Wow, this was a major escalation, Victor. That was a twist.

1005
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,639
I'm glad that everybody was listening to the end because

1006
00:53:26,679 --> 00:53:29,239
this was a twist at the end of the Eastern

1007
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:33,800
Conference ketchup and Mustard, Victor, this has been great talk.

1008
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,800
Do you have anything to say to the people it

1009
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,360
was this a good exercise or we exhausted before we

1010
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,039
come back to close out the show.

1011
00:53:41,039 --> 00:53:44,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a little exhausted, but this whole project is

1012
00:53:44,199 --> 00:53:46,000
done out of a labor of love. I know we

1013
00:53:46,159 --> 00:53:49,039
enjoy doing this for the listeners. And there have been

1014
00:53:49,079 --> 00:53:51,480
other podcasts that have done the team by team series

1015
00:53:51,519 --> 00:53:53,920
and then abandon it because hey, it's a lot of work.

1016
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:55,440
It's a lot to keep track of, it's a lot

1017
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,280
to do. So we appreciate all the guests that come

1018
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:02,199
on and talk. Kat Silverman who does the goalie discussions,

1019
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,960
There's people that have helped with the show prep and

1020
00:54:05,079 --> 00:54:07,800
all the scouts. This is the whole thing. Was quite

1021
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,639
an ordeal and it's a lot of work and I

1022
00:54:09,679 --> 00:54:11,239
think this kind of puts a bow on it, and

1023
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,079
I'm really glad that we're able to do it for

1024
00:54:13,119 --> 00:54:15,079
one more season and hopefully it helps you as you're

1025
00:54:15,119 --> 00:54:17,199
getting ready for your fantasy leagues. That's really what it's

1026
00:54:17,199 --> 00:54:20,159
all about, sharing the information as we see it and

1027
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:21,760
having some fun. So hopefully you did too.

1028
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,280
Speaker 2: Nice. Thanks everybody, and we'll be right back after this.

1029
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 3: We'll time hum.

1030
00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,239

00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:53,760
options you're looking for. There might still be time. You

1036
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,559
probably need to do a live draft at this point

1037
00:54:55,639 --> 00:54:57,400
or just right off the first week, but you could

1038
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,639
still set up a league you know you want, Why

1039
00:55:00,639 --> 00:55:03,400

00:56:02,119 --> 00:56:04,320
time to talk a little baseball. I'm not sure. You
