VP ringside.

9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,439
Speaker 1: How you doing today?

10
00:00:35,719 --> 00:00:38,799
Speaker 3: I'm doing awesome, Jesse. Yeah, it's exciting to finally get

11
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,520
some real games, some regular games like day by day.

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,560
It was nice to get a little tease over in

13
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,079
Europe and then now having games pretty much every day.

14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: Is it's your It's my happy place. How about you?

15
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:51,600
How are you doing you dang right?

16
00:00:51,679 --> 00:00:55,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's been fun. We've seen some maclin Ce brainy.

17
00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:58,920
We've seen Connor Dart comeback. We've seen Celebrini and Will Smith.

18
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,039
Although all right, Victory got to look at what happened

19
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:04,519
last night? Is spoiler time? Leg here is Celebrini gonna

20
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,799
be okay? Do we know that one?

21
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,879
Speaker 1: We don't know, but I did watch the game.

22
00:01:08,879 --> 00:01:12,159
Speaker 3: It didn't look like anything terribly bad, so this thing

23
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,280
he's being evaluated for. Although I haven't been any comments

24
00:01:15,359 --> 00:01:19,120
yet that I have heard, it seems like it's hard

25
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,319
to imagine it would be that bad, considering he didn't

26
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,040
go down awkwardly or anything like that during the game,

27
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,480
so maybe it was just a little bang up.

28
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.

29
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,719
Speaker 2: Unlike unlike my my bestie and player whose name you've

30
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,640
already heard called on the cast, or Alexander Barkoff, come

31
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,959
back soon, Alexander. We need you, buddy, all right, Victor,

32
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,079
I didn't mean to take us down at this point.

33
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:41,879
I meant to take us up, and I take us

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,799
up by telling people that they can go on the

35
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:48,439
Fantasy Hockey Life discords, whether you are a needed to

36
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,079
share your anxiety with the world because your favorite player

37
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,959
maybe is hurt or maybe has gone three games with

38
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,359
that goal, or whether you want to have a seally

39
00:01:57,599 --> 00:01:59,719
in there. We should have a Selli's room where people

40
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:02,000
are just allowed to go nuts and keep it clean,

41
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,879
but just have throw catfish on the virtual ice or

42
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920
something like that when they're extremely happy about a fantasy

43
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,159
hockey result. I don't know. I'm just making this up

44
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:12,879

59
00:02:57,199 --> 00:02:59,599
Speaker 2: All right, Victor, we're gonna take a break. It's you

60
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,039
and me. It's some early season content and we'll talk

61
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:15,240
right after this. We're back and we are celebrating our

62
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:19,199
annual tradition where Victor and I talk about shares. It's right,

63
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,039
it's our top hockey shares and so what Victor and

64
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,759
I do. And you've heard this on other shows, but

65
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,759
I think it's an exercise always worth doing, and I

66
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,439
insist to Victor I pound the table, and I think

67
00:03:29,439 --> 00:03:31,400
he agrees with me every year that this is a

68
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,280
worthwhile exercise because you can talk, and you can talk

69
00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:38,599
about the players you like better, and you can say

70
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:40,680
whatever you want. But Victor and I we also play

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,439
fantasy hockey and we draft a lot, and we have

72
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,719
a lot of teams where we make trades. And the

73
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,240
question really is where do you put your money where

74
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,360
your mouth is Who are the players that you actually

75
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:54,800
find you have on rosters more often than others? And

76
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,199
we can talk about this is not a perfect science,

77
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,199
and there are different reasons why players get on your

78
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,560
teams more often than not. But we're going to talk.

79
00:04:03,599 --> 00:04:06,400
First segment, we'll go through some of Victor's high share guys,

80
00:04:06,439 --> 00:04:08,680
and then in the second segment we'll go into a

81
00:04:08,719 --> 00:04:12,599
few of my high share guys. Now, one thing I

82
00:04:12,639 --> 00:04:16,160
should mention is Victor here, he plays in more leagues

83
00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:18,519
than me. Okay, everybody take it easy on me. If

84
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:20,720
I do a second show called Dynasty Sports Life, I'm

85
00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:24,879
in about thirty leagues spread over four different sports. A.

86
00:04:24,959 --> 00:04:28,279
Victor and I've got seven fantasy hockey leagues that I

87
00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:32,079
will discuss later of various sorts and types. But Victor Man,

88
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,160
you have a lot of how many dang leagus? I

89
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,120
know I input all the data into the spreadsheet, but

90
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,000
how many leagues you have?

91
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 3: I scaled back Actually I was up near twenty five,

92
00:04:41,879 --> 00:04:44,800
but that includes leagues that we commission and that we

93
00:04:44,959 --> 00:04:47,560
run that I don't actually play in, so the leagues

94
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,839
that I actually play, and I scaled it down to fifteen,

95
00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:51,319
which is still a lot.

96
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I count the leagues that I'm just commissioning,

97
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,279
like the tidy and all that. There are more, but

98
00:04:58,319 --> 00:05:00,720
I'm not counting those for shares purposes. And I know

99
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,240
this year you decided one of the ways that and

100
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,879
it actually is pretty good for the shares exercise and

101
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,720
for time management, but is also probably a bad habit

102
00:05:10,879 --> 00:05:13,319
is best balls, And I know you didn't do as

103
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:14,879
many best balls this year, right.

104
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I messed up.

105
00:05:16,959 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: I got really busy running some things at my work

106
00:05:20,959 --> 00:05:23,240
now and in charge of a few different people, so

107
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:25,680
I got really busy around the time of the best Balls,

108
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,040
and I just forgot and didn't have time. I usually

109
00:05:28,079 --> 00:05:30,800
do that and I really enjoy it, but I didn't

110
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,319
get any this year, and so I was really upset

111
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:32,759
about that.

112
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, but you have fifteen leagues. So the question,

113
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:43,240
Victor is what I'll spoil it for people. The high

114
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,079
share that Victor had out of fifteen leagues is five

115
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,360
shares of one player. And keeping in mind that Victor

116
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,319
and I are such dynasty people that these are players

117
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,720
that we've acquired over a decade at this point. Some

118
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,839
of them have been on our rosters for a long time,

119
00:05:57,879 --> 00:05:59,839
some of them not as much. So it's not if

120
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,879
you did fifteen leagues that were all brand new or

121
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,879
sixteen leagues that were all brand new this year, you

122
00:06:05,959 --> 00:06:09,000
might have even more shares of some people because you

123
00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:12,199
might be higher on some people than others are. But

124
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,040
these things spread out. Guys you were high shares of

125
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,519
one year might not be the next year, and so forth.

126
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,279
But what do you think is five shares a good

127
00:06:22,519 --> 00:06:25,160
high water mark for the number of times you got

128
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:28,480
an individual player, Victor Or? How do you view this philosophically?

129
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good question.

130
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,639
Speaker 3: I think that I think having a diversity of shares

131
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,519
of players is a good thing. I think it can

132
00:06:37,639 --> 00:06:41,800
mean that you're in tune with value and trying to

133
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,439
make sure you acquire guys that make sense, because I

134
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,600
think that having a diversity of players certainly can mean

135
00:06:48,639 --> 00:06:51,279
that you're not willing to overpay for certain guys, that

136
00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:54,800
you're wanting to have the right set of values for

137
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,079
value for players and making sure that you're always looking

138
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,319
at it that way, just like these are my guys,

139
00:07:01,319 --> 00:07:02,959
and I don't care what it costs someone to get them,

140
00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:06,040
because that could be a problem. On the last show

141
00:07:06,079 --> 00:07:09,000
with Ryan, we talked about Corey making a trade where

142
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,000
he overpaid and got his guy. I think that can

143
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,560
be good too, for sure, but I think as long

144
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,800
as you're not constantly doing that, as long as you're

145
00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:19,360
not constantly overpaying and overinvesting in certain players, I think

146
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,839
in some ways that tunnel vision could lead to problems.

147
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:25,639
So the diversity could be good, I guess. On the

148
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:28,839
other hand, it could mean that maybe you don't necessarily

149
00:07:28,879 --> 00:07:32,000
have your favorites, which I guess could be a problem.

150
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,600
But I definitely I think we all have guys that

151
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,879
were that were that we like. But I definitely try

152
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,079
to not get stuck on my guys. I like my guys,

153
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,480
but if someone is gonna I think, like David is

154
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,439
an example, everybody likes McDavid, right, kill McCarry is one

155
00:07:46,439 --> 00:07:48,800
of my guys. If I am trying to acquire one

156
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,160
of my guys and somebody is asking for the sun

157
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:53,120
and the moon and the stars, I think it's appropriate

158
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,680
to say no, right, no, that's too much. I shouldn't

159
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,040
do that. It's gonna hurt my team in the long run.

160
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,879
So I think it can be good to just that's

161
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,319
too much. I'll get someone in the next tier down

162
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:04,199
or something like that.

163
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I will tell you I have access because

164
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,040
I helped Victor to prepare some of this data. So

165
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,720
again we said, we're counting sixteen leagues of yours at

166
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,680
this point, Victor fifteen. Is that fifteen?

167
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: Okay?

168
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 2: And in those fifteen leagues cumulatively, Victor has four hundred

169
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,439
and fifty seven different players, I can tell you by

170
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:29,160
running the data. So there are a lot of different players.

171
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,759
So we're only going to focus on, obviously, the top players,

172
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:35,679
the ones where you have either five or four shares.

173
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,360
Five is the highest number of shares. So why don't

174
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,360
we start out Victor. You mentioned this guy, and one

175
00:08:40,399 --> 00:08:43,639
of the advantages of being awesome at prospects of the

176
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,679
way you are is some of the time you didn't

177
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,639
have to. You didn't if you were doing this exercise

178
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,720
this year, you would have had to burn a first

179
00:08:51,759 --> 00:08:53,879
round pick every time to get this guy. But because

180
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:56,080
you knew what you were doing with prospect drafts, I

181
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,559
imagine some of the years you've got we're a little

182
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,240
bit later than the first year. Victor, tell us about

183
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,320
man number one here.

184
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cal mccarr will be the first one. I decided

185
00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:08,799
to mention the skaters first. I have a couple of

186
00:09:08,799 --> 00:09:12,919
goalies that I'm more invested in. But yeah, mccarr, As

187
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,440
you mentioned, these are all dynasties, dynasty shares of maccar.

188
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,399
I really wanted mccar in redrafts. He was going a

189
00:09:19,399 --> 00:09:22,440
little bit later in some leagues. He was going somewhere

190
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,480
around five to eight or even nine in some leagues,

191
00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:28,519
And for some reason, I drafted late in all my redrafts.

192
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:30,559
I was at the turn and in the akup fall,

193
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,720
I was drafting tenth or tenth and twelfth, ten, twelfth

194
00:09:34,759 --> 00:09:36,600
and fourteenth or something like that. So I didn't have

195
00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:38,519
a chance really to get him in any of my leagues,

196
00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:41,799
which was really unfortunate, and it was hard being at

197
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,559
the end of the first round in all of my drafts,

198
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,000
so I think that kind of colored some of my shares.

199
00:09:47,039 --> 00:09:51,679
But as you alluded to, I invested in mccarr long ago.

200
00:09:52,039 --> 00:09:54,440
I saw a bit of the writing on the wall,

201
00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:58,240
I think, even before he became a little as renowned

202
00:09:58,279 --> 00:10:02,799
as he is now. But the awesome and in these leagues,

203
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,840
I think one of the interesting things to talk about

204
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,639
is how I've been able to hold onto him, although

205
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,960
in one league someone straight up just offered me a

206
00:10:11,039 --> 00:10:13,240
random trade that I thought was an insane value and

207
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,720
I smashed except and got my car. So that's one

208
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,240
way that I got him. I still don't quite understand

209
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,519
what that person was thinking, because I can't even remember

210
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,759
what I gave, but it was like basically two c's

211
00:10:22,759 --> 00:10:25,480
for mcar and I was like, not centers, but like

212
00:10:25,519 --> 00:10:27,639
two sea level players, and I just remember thinking, like,

213
00:10:27,879 --> 00:10:29,799
what am I missing. I'm just gonna head accept before

214
00:10:29,799 --> 00:10:34,799
I figure it out, and I did anyway, So when

215
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,639
people have come asking for macar, I'm of the opinion

216
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:41,159
that he's worth more than pretty much most other forwards

217
00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:43,879
except for the top fee at the very top, even

218
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:45,960
in contract leagues. I mean that my nine million dollar

219
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:49,080
cap hit. He doesn't do like as much bashing as

220
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,440
some other guys, but he's still pretty darn good for

221
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,720
at least the blocks and the hits are you know, serviceable,

222
00:10:54,799 --> 00:10:57,320
not a total vacuum. He shoots a lot, so he's

223
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,799
pretty great. So I didn't I went people come asking

224
00:11:00,799 --> 00:11:04,519
for him. I don't usually want to part with him

225
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,759
unless it's for a ton, So that's pretty much how

226
00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:08,840
it goes with mccarr.

227
00:11:08,879 --> 00:11:09,399
Speaker 1: I love him.

228
00:11:09,399 --> 00:11:11,519
Speaker 3: I think he's great, and if someone wants to pry

229
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,679
him from me, they're gonna have to. They're gonna have

230
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,759
to give me pretty much like two excellent forwards or

231
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,480
a super high end D along with another forward or

232
00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:24,440
something like that, just to make They're gonna have to.

233
00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: Overpay, basically to get mccarr from me.

234
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:28,279
Speaker 3: And I feel like that's how you should feel too,

235
00:11:28,279 --> 00:11:30,519
because it's pretty hard to replace someone what he can

236
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:35,159
do and the value that he represents amongst other defensemen.

237
00:11:36,159 --> 00:11:38,679
I have a question for you, Jesse. I'm wondering if

238
00:11:38,799 --> 00:11:41,679
mccarr can get to that century mark. We saw Eric

239
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,279
Carlson do it a couple of years ago on a

240
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,200
horrible Center Day team that seemed like they just wanted

241
00:11:46,279 --> 00:11:48,840
him to score as many points as possible. I think

242
00:11:48,919 --> 00:11:50,879
mccarr has the talent to do it. But man, this

243
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:53,000
guy cannot stay healthy. I don't think we need to

244
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,200
knock on wod or anything. This is been his MO.

245
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,879
He misses dozens of games, at least a dozen, if

246
00:11:58,879 --> 00:12:02,080
not more, every mostly season. I guess he's had two

247
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,039
seasons of seventy seven games played, which is pretty decent.

248
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:09,000
That's just missing five games, but he has paced close

249
00:12:09,039 --> 00:12:11,279
to one hundred. I just don't know if he can

250
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,840
actually hit it. Plus, the Avs are a bit worse,

251
00:12:14,879 --> 00:12:17,120
I think than they have been in the past, and

252
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:21,320
certainly not having the Chushkin and Landeskog. Dryan seems pretty good,

253
00:12:21,399 --> 00:12:25,000
middle stats seems pretty good. Cobalenko seems interesting some of

254
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,039
their new guys, but I don't know. I think he

255
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,159
can get there on talent alone, but I'm not sure

256
00:12:30,159 --> 00:12:31,960
that the team can support him, and I'm not sure

257
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,480
he can stay healthy enough. I'm hoping he does it,

258
00:12:34,519 --> 00:12:35,519
but what do you think.

259
00:12:35,879 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 2: We are recording before the Saturday night games again, and

260
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:42,480
right now he's on one hundred and sixty four point pace. Picture,

261
00:12:42,519 --> 00:12:44,600
I don't know, if you knew through one game he's

262
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,080
had two is this already So I think we're pretty

263
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,919
obviously able to project that look he is. I think

264
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,799
it's very possible. A couple of years ago, I would say, oh,

265
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,080
one hundred points, that's like McDavid McKinnon, that's about it. No, Now,

266
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,840
a lot of guys can get a points in the

267
00:13:00,919 --> 00:13:03,960
monern NHL, and not that Cale McCart is just anybody,

268
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,440
but he has a defenseman, and easier for defenseman to

269
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,600
pull that off. I think it's very possible, depending on

270
00:13:09,639 --> 00:13:12,600
the offensive environment of the year, if it continues on

271
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,799
the same trajectory, and you're right, you could see that

272
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,600
you could see that he always gets injured as either

273
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:26,120
a that there is something about this player that means

274
00:13:26,159 --> 00:13:28,480
he's going to consistently get injured, or he could mean

275
00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:30,759
he's going to hit that one year where he doesn't

276
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,320
and then look out, because his numbers will go through

277
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,679
the roof seventy seven games ninety points last year. It

278
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,720
seems very possible to me that he could do it.

279
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:42,200
I'm hoping so. And no Bow and Byron. Now not

280
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,559
that Byron was taken away from his heat, but that's

281
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:49,159
one less player who could have been coming up to

282
00:13:49,399 --> 00:13:52,720
maybe snag a couple of points out of the mix. Victor.

283
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,200
That is Cale mccarr. You have another, you have a

284
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,960
few more four point players. We're going to hit some

285
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,440
of the highlights of them. But next, you have a

286
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,039
guy who has had a circuitous road. He's a guy

287
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,519
who goes back to San Jose. He's now in New Jersey.

288
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,080
Who is the mystery man?

289
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: That would be Timo Meyer, of course. And yeah, I

290
00:14:13,639 --> 00:14:14,480
think the.

291
00:14:14,279 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: Tales of Meyer's demise are greatly exaggerated. People have been

292
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,639
talking about how he's a bum and how he's not

293
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,639
really as good as he was in that eighty one

294
00:14:24,279 --> 00:14:27,799
point pace season in San Jose. And maybe he's not,

295
00:14:28,039 --> 00:14:29,840
But I do think he's much better than what he's

296
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,799
shown in New Jersey. And it seems pretty clear to

297
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,080
me that he's had some nagging injuries those times, and

298
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,080
he had a bit of an off year. I think

299
00:14:37,159 --> 00:14:38,679
Jersey had a bit of an off year with some

300
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,320
of the injuries and black of goaltending that they had

301
00:14:41,639 --> 00:14:44,399
and the coaching decisions. He's going to get a tent

302
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,039
of opportunity. I'm not sure if people realize this. You

303
00:14:48,159 --> 00:14:52,519
might assume that Jack Hughes is the highest plate paid

304
00:14:52,559 --> 00:14:54,639
player in New Jersey, but that is not the case.

305
00:14:54,759 --> 00:14:55,759
Speaker 1: It is Timo Meyer.

306
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,519
Speaker 3: That is millions of reasons why Tima Meyer is going

307
00:14:59,559 --> 00:15:02,480
to get all the opportunity in the world. He's not

308
00:15:02,519 --> 00:15:05,240
higher than Dougie Hamilton, but the highest forward and he's

309
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:08,039
going to get tons of opportunity. And the Devils with

310
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,200
the goaltending, with Dougie Hamilton back, with the Cues being

311
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,159
a year older, and some of the other depth pieces

312
00:15:14,159 --> 00:15:16,240
that they have there, I think they're going to be

313
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,200
much much better. We already saw them beat up on

314
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,960
the Buffalo Sabers. They have looked pretty good so far

315
00:15:23,039 --> 00:15:24,919
this season, and I think that he can do it.

316
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,480
One of the big issues with Meyer in the past

317
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
is that he was getting third line treatment. So far

318
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,879
this season, he's getting time with Bratt and Hughes, who

319
00:15:33,879 --> 00:15:37,480
are both pretty elite players, and I think that's going

320
00:15:37,559 --> 00:15:39,519
to help him a ton. When he wasn't with you,

321
00:15:39,679 --> 00:15:41,360
he was with heat Cheer, and I think that's a

322
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,240
pretty pretty awesome consolation prize. I think he's going to

323
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,960
have a massive year, and I think that he could

324
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,240
get back to that peak time he's shown he's had

325
00:15:51,279 --> 00:15:53,639
some seasons where he's been in the between fifty five

326
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,519
to sixty five point pace, but he also has been

327
00:15:57,279 --> 00:15:59,320
close to seventy a couple times, and then he had

328
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,240
that eighty one point pay season. I think he can

329
00:16:01,279 --> 00:16:03,840
get back up to that seventy five plus point pace,

330
00:16:03,919 --> 00:16:06,879
especially in New Jersey with how much they have invested

331
00:16:06,879 --> 00:16:08,759
in him and giving him the time on ice that

332
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,080
he deserves. Last season, for some reason, he was down

333
00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:15,120
to one of his lowest time on ice ever and

334
00:16:15,679 --> 00:16:17,879
that's just wild. So he's back up to near twenty

335
00:16:17,919 --> 00:16:20,360
minutes and I think so far through three games, and

336
00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:21,919
I think that that's going to continue. They're going to

337
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,639
use him, and if they use him that much, I

338
00:16:23,679 --> 00:16:25,000
think that point pace can come.

339
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,879
Speaker 2: What do you think, Jesse, I definitely do. Tim Omeyer

340
00:16:32,279 --> 00:16:34,399
is a guy who when you do the projections out

341
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,200
because of the bash, typically it looks amazing. He is

342
00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:43,360
gonna really jump up the charts above where you expect. Now,

343
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,120
am I at all better? That last year in a

344
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,039
league with a friend of mine where we co managed

345
00:16:50,159 --> 00:16:53,120
a team, he convinced me that we should take Tim

346
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,000
Omeyer over Nikita Kucherov in the second round. Maybe I'm

347
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,440
still a little bit bitter about that, but I can't

348
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,799
hold against tim Omeyer that was just the confluence of events.

349
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,680
It makes him sound worse than it actually is right

350
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,480
now based on the score and format. But no, Timo

351
00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:10,079
Meyer is a guy who is going to be better

352
00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:15,240
than you might expect in that league's format. So I

353
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:19,599
definitely think that this is a savvy pickup, a guy who,

354
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,480
no doubt you've picked up at different times over the

355
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:27,440
years and will continue to have strong performance victory this

356
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:31,319
next guy. I could be wrong, but I think I

357
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:33,960
think I can remember back to a time when you

358
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,960
didn't like him as much, and I know you've long

359
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:39,880
since become a convert. Maybe I'm wrong about this, Maybe

360
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,079
I'm wrong about this. He's a guy who I used

361
00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:44,839
to think was going to be great in Carolina, and

362
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,599
then he went to Saint Louis, and then he felt

363
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:48,240
like he had a couple of boring years, and then

364
00:17:48,319 --> 00:17:51,440
he became what he is now. Victor, who is.

365
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 3: It that would be none other than Justin Falk And yeah,

366
00:17:56,519 --> 00:18:00,240
I remember the biggest reason I quote unquote didn't like

367
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,240
him wasn't necessarily so much about anything that he did.

368
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,640
It was more the way that the Blues handled the

369
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,079
cap situation when they brought in Justin Falk and they

370
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,599
gave him six point five million and they let I

371
00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:16,839
can't remember all the people that they let go, but

372
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,640
it remember it really bugged me that the way that

373
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,839
they'd handle that, and I just remember thinking, like, is

374
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,359
Falk really this good? And Yeah, that was definitely something

375
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,839
that I was wondering out loud. And that first season

376
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:34,359
in Saint Louis, he was pretty awful. He had pretty

377
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,759
pedestrian peripherals and he had a nineteen point pace. I

378
00:18:37,799 --> 00:18:41,319
was feeling pretty smug about that comment at the time,

379
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,680
but he has since really turned it on and you

380
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,240
were referencing point paces after three games, So he's on

381
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,720
one hundred and nine point pace right now, clearly going

382
00:18:49,759 --> 00:18:51,880
to continue. But now the last couple of seasons he's

383
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,440
been between forty and fifty point pace with really solid peripherals.

384
00:18:55,799 --> 00:18:58,039
And I think the big thing about Falk this year

385
00:18:58,559 --> 00:19:02,680
is that he he doesn't really have competition for the

386
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,799
top power play. He had been getting it off and

387
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,680
on during his time in Saint Louis with Krug being

388
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,039
there and then being injured, and you know all the

389
00:19:11,079 --> 00:19:14,079
different things that have been happening. But now I think

390
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,480
Justin's fulking awesome and he's going to continue to be

391
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,599
until some other competition comes along. There is Scott Prunovich.

392
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,559
I know people want Scott Prunevich to be a thing.

393
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:25,400
I have wanted Scott Prunavis to be a thing. I'm

394
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,599
sure Scott Prunevich and his whole family wants him to

395
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,400
realize his potential. But the man can't seem to stay healthy.

396
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,680
It's really frustrating. He's got lots of talent but can't

397
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,960
seem to keep together, and that's frustrating. I did get

398
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,920
Falk in one redraft. I wanted him in all my redrafts,

399
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,480
and I got sniped so hard one time by Nate.

400
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:46,160
I had him all cued up and I was like, yeah,

401
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,440
by the way, don't ever a draft with Nate in

402
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,279
front of you if you can help it. That was

403
00:19:50,319 --> 00:19:52,799
a miserable experience. He took so many of my guys.

404
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,200
But I had Fulk in a couple other leagues, and

405
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,480
I was trying to get him in every league that

406
00:19:57,519 --> 00:19:57,920
I could.

407
00:19:58,039 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like him. I think Saint Louis so they've

408
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,640
been sneaky good. Right.

409
00:20:01,759 --> 00:20:03,519
Speaker 3: They came back to win a couple of games that

410
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:06,880
they probably shouldn't have, one against Santade, which I imagine

411
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,359
everyone thought they would win easily. But I think Santa

412
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,720
they put up a tougher fight than most people thought.

413
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,559
And yeah, I think you look at the roster and

414
00:20:14,599 --> 00:20:16,160
you think this might be a down season, but they

415
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,240
have some really awesome players. Robert Thomas, Jordan Cairou and

416
00:20:19,319 --> 00:20:21,680
Pablo Buchnevich seemed like a force to be reckoned with.

417
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,599
And their defense can if they can be at least average.

418
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,480
So I think Falk is going to be pretty good.

419
00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:30,240
And I think that he's shown that he can give

420
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,279
them the right opportunity, that he can be a lot more,

421
00:20:32,759 --> 00:20:35,359
a lot better than at least some of us used

422
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:35,680
to think.

423
00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:37,599
Speaker 1: Jesse, I can change my mind.

424
00:20:38,319 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to over exaggerate, but Victory, we

425
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,920
got to ramp up the takes. We got to ramp

426
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,400
up the history Victor when we're talking, just to make

427
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,640
this show all the excitement that the people demand. Yeah,

428
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,799
Falk Victor dancing right up to the edge of the

429
00:20:50,839 --> 00:20:54,039
explicit take and then pulling it back gently. He is

430
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,359
all that in a bag of donuts. What do you

431
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,200
think the other X factor in that Saint Louis defensive

432
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,799
course is Philip? Is he going to be an X

433
00:21:01,839 --> 00:21:02,720
factor in this at all?

434
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 3: You think, Yeah, that's a really good question. And I

435
00:21:08,519 --> 00:21:11,200
actually really like Broberg and I think if you watch

436
00:21:11,319 --> 00:21:14,559
the playoffs with Edmontonton, you really got to see some

437
00:21:14,759 --> 00:21:17,200
of what he can do. And I actually I wrote

438
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,400
about Broberg on EP ringside. I encourage you go read it,

439
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,359
and basically the point was, man, if this guy ever

440
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,839
gets a really good opportunity somewhere other than Edmonton, he

441
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,799
could be really great and then look what happened. So

442
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,920
I think that there's a really good chance that he is.

443
00:21:32,079 --> 00:21:34,359
I think obviously we have to see what the power

444
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,480
play breakdown is going to be. Just looking so far,

445
00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:40,640
it's clearly Flk on the top unit, but Broberg is

446
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,400
getting some time. I think a lot of people thought

447
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,799
that maybe Colton Prareco would get that he's never really

448
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:48,160
been that guy. Perreco and Letty had it for a

449
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,279
hot minute in the Islanders POJ. I think that time

450
00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:54,720
has passed, so it's really going to be Fulk and

451
00:21:54,799 --> 00:21:58,039
Broberg on the team. If Prunovich gets and stays healthy,

452
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,119
maybe he can do that. But he's nowhere near the

453
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,440
five on five player that Broberg is and I think that. Yeah,

454
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,839
Broberg right now has three points in three games. I

455
00:22:06,839 --> 00:22:09,079
don't think that'll continue. But I think I said something

456
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,480
like a forty plus point pace season is in the cards,

457
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,920
and I definitely think he can do that. Especially his

458
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,359
priffs are pretty decent, and I think they might even

459
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,240
be better given the opportunity than folks will have to see.

460
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:23,599
He's not going to get the minutes that Falk is getting.

461
00:22:23,599 --> 00:22:27,160
But yeah, Philip Broberg I think could really turn this around. Plus,

462
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,400
I think you always have to look at how the

463
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,920
team is invested in the player, and they obviously we

464
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,240
all saw they're invested in him. I mean they're paying

465
00:22:34,319 --> 00:22:36,559
him four and a half million to fulk six and

466
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:40,240
a half million. He's the second highest paid, third highest

467
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,079
paid defenseman on the team with Krug on LTR. So

468
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,319
that's ahead of Letty, that's ahead of all the other guys.

469
00:22:46,319 --> 00:22:49,200
So they have reasons to use him, and he has

470
00:22:49,279 --> 00:22:51,920
been been showing he's worth it. I think of all

471
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,720
the guy between him in Holloway, you know, he really

472
00:22:55,759 --> 00:22:58,400
has shown out much more and it's a more difficult position,

473
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,680
and it's a position that they really needed. So yeah,

474
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,599
I think Berber could be in a pretty good league.

475
00:23:02,599 --> 00:23:04,359
Not in a cap league because I don't know that

476
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,759
he's going to be worth that, but in a non

477
00:23:06,799 --> 00:23:08,759
cap league, I think you might want to invest in him.

478
00:23:08,799 --> 00:23:10,720
He could really show that he's worth a little bit

479
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:11,839
more than we thought.

480
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:13,039
Speaker 1: I love it.

481
00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: Okay, Victor, let's go to the goalies, because actually, surprisingly

482
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:22,519
the goalies really were actually your highest share. You had

483
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:24,480
higher shares of some goalies than you even did of

484
00:23:24,559 --> 00:23:29,079
some of the skaters. But tell us about how that happened.

485
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you all know how I goalie. I

486
00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:36,119
like to fade goalies, and I've been doing that. You

487
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,279
and I have been doing that long before Nate gave

488
00:23:38,279 --> 00:23:41,559
it a name with zero G and I didn't draft

489
00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:44,480
any goalies in redraft until round eleven. I kept looking

490
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,319
seeing who's there, and there were several starters that I

491
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,240
was comfortable with, And the main two that I was

492
00:23:50,279 --> 00:23:52,480
pretty comfortable with are the two that I ended up with,

493
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,960
So I don't think that's a coincidence. I kept waiting

494
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,880
and then they were still there. My main targets going

495
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,799
into the season were Hill, Ingram, Wolf and dos Stahl,

496
00:24:01,519 --> 00:24:03,960
and I ended up mostly with Hill and Ingram. I

497
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,839
did get a few shares of Wolf and dos Staal

498
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,119
as well, but I decided not to talk so much

499
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,640
about those two. Most of my dos Staal shares are

500
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,359
in Dynasty. I actually didn't have any Wolf shares in Dynasty,

501
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,680
but I think that's more because other people actually like

502
00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:20,160
him more than me, which is hard to believe, but

503
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,440
it's true. And I also really like those off night

504
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,440
schedules with dos Stall and especially with Gibson being able

505
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,559
banged up to start the season and then them being

506
00:24:29,599 --> 00:24:32,279
close to starts last year, I figured Dostal would take

507
00:24:32,279 --> 00:24:34,799
the lead this year. But anyways, I wasn't going to

508
00:24:34,839 --> 00:24:38,440
focus on those who'll focus on Hill and Ingram. With Hill,

509
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,079
he's the man in Vegas, right, I imagine he's gonna

510
00:24:42,079 --> 00:24:45,799
get the volume. He's making more than double what theim

511
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,279
soon Off is making. One concern is that both these

512
00:24:50,319 --> 00:24:52,519
guys are injury prone, so that makes me a little

513
00:24:52,559 --> 00:24:57,599
bit worried. But I think that Hill has the investment

514
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,920
and trust of the coach after the Cup performance, so

515
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,680
I think that they're gonna clearly go back to him,

516
00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:06,880
and we've seen that already. So far this season, he

517
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,279
has been the man. I don't think anyone's too surprised

518
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:13,119
with that. One concern I had is maybe Vegas is

519
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,720
gonna be worse than we thought because they lost some

520
00:25:15,759 --> 00:25:18,880
pretty good players. They're still tied to the cap and

521
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,440
have some of these issues. Mark Stone seems like he's

522
00:25:21,799 --> 00:25:25,319
struggling at times, but I think that they're still gonna

523
00:25:25,319 --> 00:25:27,599
be good. They always find a way regardless of what's happening.

524
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,440
They seem to find a way to still be good.

525
00:25:29,599 --> 00:25:31,920
And most of the rest of the Pacific Division isn't

526
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,319
very good anyway, so that helps playing beating up on

527
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,359
some of the rebuilding or retooling teams. But yeah, I

528
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,960
was targeting Hill for that reason. Still should be on

529
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,400
a pretty good team, still should get the volume of starts,

530
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,640
and even though I don't necessarily trust him to be amazing,

531
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,039
I think that I trust the team much more in

532
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,839
points leagues. In category leagues, I would be a little

533
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,759
more nervous about Hill, especially with the way that Vegas

534
00:25:59,839 --> 00:26:03,039
allowser doesn't allow shots so often. That can be a

535
00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:06,000
little bit painful, but it's so far I think it's

536
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
going pretty well, and I think that he will be fine.

537
00:26:08,319 --> 00:26:10,039
And I guess I'll just mention Ingram too, and then

538
00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:12,640
you can talk about you can react to both of them,

539
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,960
but yeah, Ingram. I have long Jesse long been a

540
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,079
Connor Ingram fan, even since he was back in Tampa,

541
00:26:19,319 --> 00:26:21,240
saying that I still think this guy can be a starter,

542
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,839
even though he's behind Vassilevski and people were calling me crazy.

543
00:26:24,559 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 1: But I love him. I think he's great.

544
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 3: And he showed last season that he really can take

545
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,720
the ball and run with it, and I think that's

546
00:26:31,759 --> 00:26:35,079
really important. I think that helps his confidence. I think

547
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,319
with the clubs moved to Utah and the offseason editions,

548
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,839
he got some really good addition. Sergachev is an all in,

549
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,880
all world type defenseman. He can really handle tough minutes,

550
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,200
tough assignments. He can run power plays, he can do

551
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,400
it all. He's really awesome. They added some other depth

552
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,799
defestman Marino, and some of their young guys are maturing.

553
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,960
Dylan Gunther is the real deal. That guy is incredible.

554
00:26:58,279 --> 00:27:00,319
They got some great forward so I think for all

555
00:27:00,319 --> 00:27:02,720
the teams should just be a lot better. The vibes

556
00:27:02,759 --> 00:27:07,079
are immaculate. There in Utah, it seemed like they really

557
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,680
feel like they're being taken care of, and in the

558
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,000
first couple of games, they look like a a team

559
00:27:12,039 --> 00:27:15,160
to be reckoned with. Even though Ingram's numbers maybe weren't

560
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,359
in stellar, I think that he showed that he can

561
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,200
help them win, which I think is maybe a surprise

562
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,319
that some people were looking at Utah saying, yeah, they're

563
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,599
not going to win that many games, even if Ingram's okay,

564
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:26,039
I thought that.

565
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: No.

566
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 3: I think that they can push to be a Bubble

567
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,720
playoff team, and that's pretty valuable. I think there's something

568
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,920
to be said, too, Jesse for teams that are really

569
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,960
pushing hard to get in, because they might play their

570
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,599
starter a little bit more, and they might they're fighting

571
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,640
for those wins. Sometimes with some of the some of

572
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,480
the teams that are either guaranteed to be in or out,

573
00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:48,759
they tend to not work their guy that hard, or

574
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,319
they tend to split starts, or whatever the case may be.

575
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,599
But I think they might actually really lean on their

576
00:27:54,599 --> 00:27:56,640
top guy here in Connor Ingram. So I was pretty

577
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,240
happy to get those two and I really believe in

578
00:27:59,279 --> 00:28:00,759
these guys, and I think I think if you had

579
00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:03,680
a chance to get Ingram in particular, I would be

580
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:05,880
supporting trying to make that move.

581
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 2: What do you think, Jesse, Yeah, you definitely have been

582
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,480
a Connor Ingram Man longer than most, and I totally agree.

583
00:28:15,559 --> 00:28:18,039
I don't know about everybody else, man, I'm so locked

584
00:28:18,039 --> 00:28:21,440
in on Utah right now. I will say I was

585
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:26,279
a hipster Coyotes fan last year when the Coyotes were

586
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,920
at their absolute death, partly because of the train wred

587
00:28:29,039 --> 00:28:32,960
factor and watching I think Tyson Nash was still there

588
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,240
last year calling games. But I love tuning into their

589
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,000
stuff and I love following their media. But like everybody

590
00:28:39,119 --> 00:28:42,759
is locked in at least it feels like TNT in

591
00:28:42,839 --> 00:28:44,599
some of the national stuff in the United States is

592
00:28:44,599 --> 00:28:48,279
locked in on pushing Utah. That opening night Utah game

593
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,160
was just amazing. Lari Marknen from the Utah Jazz coming

594
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,400
out there and skating and looking about making Clayton Keller

595
00:28:55,519 --> 00:28:57,799
look like a small child when he stood next to him.

596
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,240
The power forward for the Utah Jazz that was outstanding,

597
00:29:01,319 --> 00:29:04,359
and for the Utah Jazz Co also owned by the

598
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,759
same people playing in the same building for them to

599
00:29:07,839 --> 00:29:11,119
be led by a Finn who could come out and

600
00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:15,119
introduce the hockey Club was just tremendous. Their uniforms are

601
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,440
hot fire right now. I just I'm loving everything about

602
00:29:18,519 --> 00:29:22,799
Utah and Connor Ingram is looking good. Maiden Hill is

603
00:29:22,839 --> 00:29:26,799
so weird because he was he made the rounds and actually,

604
00:29:26,839 --> 00:29:29,319
if you look back, had decent stats with Arizona for

605
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,440
several years as the backup and with San Jose. But

606
00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:35,359
when he came to Vegas, did anybody trust that he

607
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,839
was gonna be able to do anything? And then suddenly

608
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,440
Vegas has made him into what he is, or he's

609
00:29:41,519 --> 00:29:44,640
been able to show what he is in Vegas, and

610
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,680
it's just amazing. But he definitely is a value to

611
00:29:48,759 --> 00:29:53,759
have at this point. Victor, Yeah, no, I definitely.

612
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: I remember when he went to Vegas because he came

613
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,759
from Yeah, you said San Jose in between and it's

614
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,799
one of those things too where the grass is always

615
00:30:01,799 --> 00:30:04,839
greener and you watch In Hill in Arizona and I

616
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,200
remember thinking like, yeah, I remember watching sharksk games and

617
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,400
he and the not very good Arizona Coyotes would he

618
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,680
would stand on his head and they would beat the Sharks,

619
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,240
so they would beat other teams, and I remember thinking

620
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,359
like wow, this guy's so good. And then I watched

621
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,839
him closer in San Josana. I remember thinking like, I

622
00:30:19,839 --> 00:30:22,480
don't think he is very good, but that was probably

623
00:30:22,559 --> 00:30:24,519
partially the team in front of him. Then he goes

624
00:30:24,559 --> 00:30:26,119
to Vegas and I'm still thinking, I don't think this

625
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:26,839
guy is very good.

626
00:30:26,839 --> 00:30:28,279
Speaker 1: And then he turned. Then he wins the Cup, and

627
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:29,640
I don't know what to think about this guy.

628
00:30:29,759 --> 00:30:31,799
Speaker 3: But that's where you have to detach some of your

629
00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:34,720
feelings and just look objectively and say, he won a cup.

630
00:30:35,759 --> 00:30:39,119
Can't deny that Vegas still finds a way and they've

631
00:30:39,119 --> 00:30:41,440
made him their man. He's making more than doubles. I

632
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,359
think you gotta believe. You gotta believe that he's going

633
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,720
to get that opportunity and he's going to be decent.

634
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how I look at it.

635
00:30:47,119 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 3: I try to separate that from my actual feelings, which

636
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,680
I which is still that I don't know that I

637
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,319
don't really think he's that good of a goalie, but

638
00:30:53,359 --> 00:30:55,880
he has shown that he can be at least in

639
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:56,920
that system.

640
00:30:57,519 --> 00:31:00,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, the great march of Vegas goalies over the future

641
00:31:00,319 --> 00:31:02,039
of the franchise, you know, there should be a meme.

642
00:31:02,119 --> 00:31:04,559
There probably is a meme. For this that I don't know.

643
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,839
But it starts with Marc Andre Fleurius. Oh yeah, that

644
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,839
makes sense. And then Robin Laner's Robin Laner. He's had

645
00:31:10,839 --> 00:31:14,160
a career renaissance. This is making sense. And then it

646
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:19,359
goes to Aiden Hill and you're like, oh, really okay,

647
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,640
And then it goes to Logan Thompson and what was

648
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,960
it Eric Comery last, No, it wasn't him, the other

649
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,359
backup br Swas, the other backup for Winnipeg. And you're like, okay, Vegas,

650
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,079
I don't know what you're doing here, but yeah, just

651
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:32,680
you're drunk.

652
00:31:32,759 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: Go home.

653
00:31:33,559 --> 00:31:35,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're drunk, go home. You got all these magicians

654
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,079
in town. I don't know how you're doing it, but anyway,

655
00:31:38,319 --> 00:31:41,119
all right, that's Victor's high Share guys. We're gonna take

656
00:31:41,119 --> 00:31:55,640
a break, come back and talk my high share guys. Selfish, selfish,

657
00:31:56,279 --> 00:31:58,440
break it down, Kate, fuck, don't.

658
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,759
Speaker 1: Bat's not gonna be there, got jumpin.

659
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: Taking talking for angles. Are still shot a bad bounced.

660
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,759
Speaker 3: That's a good breakaway to get the bounced boys.

661
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,359
Speaker 1: Welcome back.

662
00:32:13,599 --> 00:32:16,759
Speaker 3: Time to go through Jesse shared. You heard you going

663
00:32:16,799 --> 00:32:20,200
through mine? And yes, Jesse, I do enjoy this exercise.

664
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,279
I think everyone should step back and take stock of

665
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,519
who you're actually invested in and think about that, think

666
00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:28,640
about how you got to that point. And we're going

667
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,559
to talk about yours, your your shares, who you have.

668
00:32:31,759 --> 00:32:34,039
Why don't you take us through what leagues you have

669
00:32:34,279 --> 00:32:37,480
and what type they are in terms of dynasty, redraft

670
00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:39,759
and whatnot and talk through that a little bit.

671
00:32:40,839 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Victor, it's I'm I've got seven teams this year

672
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,319
for existing dynasties that I drafted in the past. It's

673
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,079
like one a year practically that I've been drafting them,

674
00:32:51,799 --> 00:32:55,160
and then we have our co managed team, so they're

675
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,759
on my roster. But to some extent, I've got to

676
00:32:57,759 --> 00:32:59,880
attribute some of these picks to you, although some of

677
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:01,599
them have been trades and some of them are guys

678
00:33:01,599 --> 00:33:05,359
who could have traded away at various points. And then

679
00:33:05,559 --> 00:33:07,839
this year I did one Best Ball redraft, and I

680
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:12,559
did one redraft Fantasy Sports Gaming Association where I represent

681
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,400
fan tracks in a draft. I did that a week ago,

682
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,640
So there are a couple of new shares that I

683
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,359
can say represent. But out of the seven teams, I

684
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,400
actually have at least one player who flipped over the

685
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,119
halfway point where I have him in seven of the

686
00:33:29,359 --> 00:33:31,480
or four of the seven rosters, and then I got

687
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,759
a few guys at three victory and this is going

688
00:33:34,839 --> 00:33:37,480
to break down in categories, which we'll get to is

689
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:38,640
as we get through them.

690
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,319
Speaker 1: All right, sounds good, So who's your top share guy?

691
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,839
Speaker 2: My top share guy surprised me. And that's what the

692
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,359
shares exercised. I would invite anybody to do this. And

693
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,359
if you don't know how to do this easily, if

694
00:33:51,359 --> 00:33:53,279
you got too many rosters, you don't think there's a

695
00:33:53,279 --> 00:33:54,720
way to do it, I can show you there's a

696
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,240
spreadsheet you can copy paste a lot of stuff on

697
00:33:57,319 --> 00:34:00,599
real quick and make this happen in fifteen if you're

698
00:34:00,599 --> 00:34:04,599
decent with Google sheets. But my top guy, Nikolai Eeler's,

699
00:34:04,799 --> 00:34:07,279
believe it or not, I was surprised, but maybe I

700
00:34:07,279 --> 00:34:09,440
shouldn't be. I took him in both of my new

701
00:34:10,039 --> 00:34:13,920
drafts this year, the Redraft and the Redraft Best Ball,

702
00:34:14,639 --> 00:34:18,199
And it wasn't my mindset to target Nick Eelers because

703
00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:22,039
we all know the deal, right, Talent is crazy, opportunity

704
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,280
never seems to get there, and you worry about the injury,

705
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,480
You worry about whether he's going to get the opportunity

706
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,719
in Winnipeg, and both times it was one of those

707
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,920
where I ended up taking him because I just kept

708
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:38,119
I felt like he kept falling and I wanted that

709
00:34:38,199 --> 00:34:42,320
dual wing eligibility, and I was like, okay, I'll take

710
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:47,360
Nick Eelers. I like him in redrafts where peripherals are devalued,

711
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:50,760
which some of these redrafts were. They didn't care as

712
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,719
much about hits and shots, and some of them didn't

713
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:58,320
even credit blocks, which I firmly morally oppose. But these

714
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,159
are things that in prove Nikolai Eeler's value visa vi.

715
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,400
His competition because those are some of the areas where

716
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,519
he doesn't do things. Also, power play points, if there

717
00:35:08,559 --> 00:35:10,840
are If power play points are scored heavily, that's not

718
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,159
great for nick Lai Eilers because that's not what he gets.

719
00:35:13,199 --> 00:35:17,519
But he gets plenty of even strength points. But of

720
00:35:17,519 --> 00:35:19,800
these four shares, one is actually on our common team,

721
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,000
so that is that That is the third share, and

722
00:35:23,039 --> 00:35:25,599
the fourth is the Diesel League. If people aren't familiar

723
00:35:25,639 --> 00:35:30,199
with that. I created a four sport dynasty that has

724
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:36,159
full rosters, full prospect systems, salary for four sports Victor

725
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,360
is a participant there. He co manages the hockey side

726
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,079
of one of the leagues. But I have Elers in

727
00:35:42,159 --> 00:35:44,280
that and he's got a decent contract. I think he's

728
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,000
six thousand, six million dollars right now, and he could

729
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,360
be up for a raise that could make him a

730
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,039
little bit more difficult for the stats he produces. But

731
00:35:52,679 --> 00:35:55,960
everywhere I roster him. The three places out of the

732
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,079
six drafts that I did the initial draft for is

733
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,480
is a pick I made either this season or last

734
00:36:01,559 --> 00:36:03,599
the older leagues or not once I have him. And

735
00:36:03,639 --> 00:36:07,599
so it really does apparently represent my most recent feelings

736
00:36:07,639 --> 00:36:09,760
about some of these players. And I guess hope springs

737
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,679
eternal that mister Eelers is going to take his big

738
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,719
step picture you have him or we have him in

739
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,519
that common team, So you must be an Eelers man

740
00:36:20,559 --> 00:36:23,039
with me, right, I.

741
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: Do love Eelers.

742
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,840
Speaker 3: You mentioned the issues where he just didn't seems to

743
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,079
not get the deployment, and we've all been frustrated with it.

744
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,800
I think I heard on thirty two thoughts they were

745
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,280
asked saying whether they thought Elers would be a Jet

746
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,559
next year, And the prevailing wisdom as of now is No,

747
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,480
I think we'd all love to see Eelers in a

748
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,039
different situation, potentially getting that top power play time and

749
00:36:48,079 --> 00:36:50,599
seeing what he can do, because I think there's a

750
00:36:50,639 --> 00:36:53,079
lot of belief that he can do a lot more.

751
00:36:53,079 --> 00:36:55,079
And yeah, six million is a very reasonable cap hit

752
00:36:55,119 --> 00:36:57,639
for what he does, and yeah, I think that he

753
00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:00,800
can do more, but he just doesn't at the opportunity

754
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,880
and it's very frustrating. But yeah, I love what he

755
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,239
can do. He generitely brings a good amount of shots

756
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,519
at least, although that's been a little bit down in

757
00:37:08,519 --> 00:37:09,599
the last couple of seasons.

758
00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do. I really enjoy watching Elers.

759
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,679
Speaker 3: He's so fun, he's so fast, he's really creative, and

760
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,519
he seems to make things happen when he's out there.

761
00:37:18,559 --> 00:37:20,920
But yeah, sometimes it doesn't always translate to points, which

762
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,960
maybe either the way he plays or who he gets

763
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,880
to play with is probably part of that.

764
00:37:27,639 --> 00:37:30,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be delicious to have him go to

765
00:37:30,199 --> 00:37:32,880
another team, all right. The second guy I've got I

766
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,440
can't really claim credit for per se because this is

767
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,599
a pure luck of the draw where I was drafting

768
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:44,039
in Leagus. Nathan McKinnon is on three of my seven teams.

769
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:48,440
And basically having Nathan McKinnon on that many teams doesn't

770
00:37:48,519 --> 00:37:52,320
mean that you have any particular credit for liking Nathan McKinnon.

771
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,920
It means you got picked, but you got somewhere between

772
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,519
pick two and four in the draft, and either he

773
00:37:57,679 --> 00:37:59,679
was the guy who fell, which I feel like he

774
00:37:59,679 --> 00:38:01,039
did some of the time, where he was the guy

775
00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:02,920
I might have taken him over like a dry cydle

776
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,920
or a postum knak, which I guess says something, but

777
00:38:06,199 --> 00:38:09,480
it doesn't. I can't claim the type of credit that

778
00:38:09,599 --> 00:38:12,280
would otherwise belong to me. I did have a dynasty

779
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,559
that went back to that year, I think his sophomore

780
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:19,039
year where he wasn't that great, where I drafted him

781
00:38:19,079 --> 00:38:22,480
based on that year, where I would vaguely feel like

782
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:26,039
but that folded several years ago, so I can't take

783
00:38:26,079 --> 00:38:29,719
credit for him. But nonetheless, I'm very happy every night

784
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:33,760
that the Colorado Avalanche are playing to have comfort knowing

785
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,800
that Nathan McKinnon's stats are going out to my sheet.

786
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,800
Speaker 1: Victor, Oh, yeah, I imagine you are.

787
00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:41,039
Speaker 3: But I do believe one of those shares is our

788
00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:43,559
joint team where we have McKinnon, And that was actually

789
00:38:43,599 --> 00:38:47,039
one where we traded for and that was right before

790
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:48,719
he was about to get paid. And I think the

791
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,920
manager was a little worried about his excessive cap hit,

792
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,639
which is insane, but he's also an insanely talented player.

793
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,480
So it was one of those things where we should

794
00:38:57,679 --> 00:39:00,400
rearrange things to make room for this guy. We did

795
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,159
have to make a little bit of a decision. There

796
00:39:02,559 --> 00:39:05,519
wasn't that hard, but we did make room for McKinnon's

797
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:06,920
I cap hit.

798
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,079
Speaker 2: I'm with you, all right. The next two guys are

799
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:17,119
also pros, and I will be accused of bias. I

800
00:39:17,159 --> 00:39:20,159
will not partake in that, but I could be accused

801
00:39:20,159 --> 00:39:23,119
of bias because they're both Washington capitals, the first being

802
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,199
Tom Wilson. I think it's not so much that I'm

803
00:39:26,199 --> 00:39:29,679
biased for Tom Wilson, as the things that make other

804
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,559
people hate Tom Wilson and be less likely to draft

805
00:39:33,639 --> 00:39:36,480
him do not exist in my mind, and therefore I

806
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:39,119
tend to take in more value. And I think in

807
00:39:39,199 --> 00:39:42,360
all of these cases I got him below value initially.

808
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:46,000
But Tom Wilson, obviously the reason you drafted him is

809
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,320
for the purple floor. His hits are going to meet

810
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,199
in a points league that values hits. You're going to

811
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,199
have the floor every night because of this man's insane

812
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,960
number of hits that he takes, and in ile leagues

813
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,960
or leagues where injured players don't have a cap hit,

814
00:40:03,679 --> 00:40:06,559
which Tom Wilson. If you put it this way, if

815
00:40:06,559 --> 00:40:09,599
you have a league where Tom Wilson when suspended does

816
00:40:09,639 --> 00:40:12,920
not account against your cap, that's a good thing if

817
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,880
it's a salary league. But I have three shares. One

818
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,639
was actually in your league, Victor, or the league you

819
00:40:18,679 --> 00:40:22,039
initially drafted our co managed team. The other one is

820
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,320
in the four sport contract where his new contract actually

821
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,400
terrifies me because you got a rather large extension and

822
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,920
it was actually a little bit of a choice to

823
00:40:33,039 --> 00:40:36,840
keep him after this extension. But in a redraft this year,

824
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,519
I got him at picked one to seventy, which is

825
00:40:38,639 --> 00:40:41,159
just come on, it picked one to seventy in a

826
00:40:41,199 --> 00:40:44,199
league that values hits. You have to at that point.

827
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:48,599
I love the upgrade that Wilson's getting this year from Kuznetsov,

828
00:40:48,639 --> 00:40:50,800
who was on his last legs, to peer Luke Dubois.

829
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,800
I feel like Connor McMichael and the other wing is

830
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:59,280
emerging and actually getting to be a competent pro winger,

831
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,400
So I I think Wilson might actually have a slightly stronger,

832
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,280
slightly stronger group that he'll be playing with. And then,

833
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,639
of course, usually a couple times a year, he'll be

834
00:41:08,679 --> 00:41:11,920
on the same line as Alex Obachkin, and that always

835
00:41:12,599 --> 00:41:16,559
helps to have somebody to divert some attention. He's going

836
00:41:16,639 --> 00:41:19,719
to take his shots close in. So Tom Wilson good

837
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,159
useful player for me. And then Charlie Lingern is the

838
00:41:24,159 --> 00:41:28,679
other one guy who was like, when you started to

839
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:33,559
notice that Charlie Lingren was a guy, you needed to

840
00:41:33,559 --> 00:41:35,199
be the purst to pick him up. He wasn't really

841
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,760
a guy. I don't know if I got him. I

842
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,320
took him in a redraft this year along with Logan

843
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,039
Thompson because I was doing late goalie selections and I

844
00:41:44,119 --> 00:41:46,639
believe in Charlie linger and I think, all though the

845
00:41:46,679 --> 00:41:49,480
capitals probably will not be very good, I think he'll

846
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,599
be able to get some saves and he'll play a

847
00:41:51,599 --> 00:41:55,400
competent goalie, maybe as competent of a goalie as this

848
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:59,920
team has had since since Samsonov's last good year into

849
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,800
And who knows what Logan Thompson is because the Vegas

850
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,920
magic has gone now, but we also got him in

851
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,719
our common team last year. That was a good thing

852
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,559
to get in our common league. I picked him up

853
00:42:13,679 --> 00:42:16,079
the league that we're both in as separate teams were

854
00:42:16,119 --> 00:42:18,440
at two different leagues of separate leagues, but our old

855
00:42:19,039 --> 00:42:22,480
dynasty I had a major shortage of pro goalies and

856
00:42:22,679 --> 00:42:25,119
I brought him in. Charlie ing Gren, I feel is

857
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:27,639
just a competent, low level He's not a guy I

858
00:42:27,639 --> 00:42:30,119
would have taken like tenth the Mongoalies or anything like that.

859
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,679
But he's a guy I'm happy to have as a

860
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,079
floor guy, and I do think he's going to end up.

861
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,400
As I've said on this show, I do think he's

862
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,679
going to end up in the lead of that CAP's

863
00:42:41,119 --> 00:42:46,719
goalie duo. And then two prospects, Victor I'll just mention

864
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,280
because it's hard to say. In some ways, having a

865
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,760
prospect as a high share guy means that you probably

866
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,920
did draft him above where he was going in drafts

867
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,440
in the past. The first of those I don't really

868
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:08,480
think was a draft situation. Tom Off of Toronto one

869
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,599
of those shares on our common team. I have the

870
00:43:10,639 --> 00:43:14,480
other two the FHL Dynasty teams, actually the original FHL

871
00:43:14,559 --> 00:43:19,159
Dynasty and in Tidy, and those were ones that I

872
00:43:19,199 --> 00:43:24,639
believe I traded for in both cases because when I

873
00:43:24,679 --> 00:43:26,840
was trying to sell really good players, he was one

874
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:31,360
of the better prospects on the contending team that was acquiring,

875
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,599
So he was my preference in some of those. And

876
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,000
Toronto is still an uncertain goalie situation, but I have

877
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:42,079
faith that ultimately they will be a competitive team whatever

878
00:43:42,119 --> 00:43:44,000
comes out the other end of this whole thing. I

879
00:43:44,039 --> 00:43:45,800
don't know that they're going to come back to the

880
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,599
bottom of the league at anytime soon. And if he

881
00:43:48,639 --> 00:43:51,800
ever gets really good, I'm hoping for the Toronto tax

882
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,039
that will maybe help me get him with some dividends.

883
00:43:56,559 --> 00:43:58,880
And then last should be no surprise. And this is

884
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,840
the only one that I look at really on this

885
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,159
whole list and say, yeah, this is my guy. Deminilli,

886
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,159
You're off. I put my money where my mouth was

887
00:44:07,199 --> 00:44:10,760
in the twenty twenty two prospect drafts. All three shares

888
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,840
are in my solo managed dynasties. I took him in

889
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,199
the Diesel the four Sports startup last year. I took

890
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,920
him fourteenth in our common league, and I claimed him

891
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,480
for one hundred percent of my budget last year in

892
00:44:22,519 --> 00:44:24,800
another league where he was drafted. I think it was tidy.

893
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,039
He was drafted seventeenth in the draft, but inexplicably dropped

894
00:44:29,079 --> 00:44:31,440
in February. I still had all one hundred of my

895
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,599
five dollars. I dropped all one hundred per You're off.

896
00:44:34,679 --> 00:44:37,679
I have no idea what that manager was thinking not

897
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,800
calling them out, because I don't really remember who it was.

898
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,159
And please, nobody go back and do the math and

899
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:43,719
do any shame. I don't even know if that guy's

900
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,480
in the league again this year. But Danili, you're off?

901
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,719
Has his stock has risen in? I'm very happy. I

902
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,519
would if I could get him in all seven leagues,

903
00:44:52,599 --> 00:44:55,280
all dynasty leagues, I would be very happy about that.

904
00:44:56,639 --> 00:45:00,800
Victor any observations on my shares, guys think any of

905
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,519
them are crazy.

906
00:45:03,639 --> 00:45:05,760
Speaker 3: There was a time I called you crazy for ranking

907
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,280
you're off so high, but those days are behind us, Jesse.

908
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:09,440
Speaker 1: We're moving on from that.

909
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 3: And yeah, I definitely think that it's interesting when you

910
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,679
look at prospects, because I would imagine that there are

911
00:45:16,679 --> 00:45:19,119
some people who do this exercise and would find that

912
00:45:19,159 --> 00:45:22,360
they have a whole lot of duplicate shares of certain players.

913
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,400
And I do think it's especially with prospects, it's even

914
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,480
better to have a diversity because no one is perfect

915
00:45:29,519 --> 00:45:31,920
at predicting these things. So you don't want to have

916
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,960
twelve shares of one guy and then have that guy

917
00:45:34,079 --> 00:45:34,639
not hit.

918
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:35,280
Speaker 1: You want to have a.

919
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 3: Little bit of a diverse portfolio, Jesse, if you're investing

920
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,760
in these prospects. So I think that's good. And certainly

921
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,960
saying you put one hundred percent of your claim budget

922
00:45:45,119 --> 00:45:47,599
was definitely a big move. But also people should know

923
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,960
you don't usually tend to use that much of your

924
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,400
fab in that league, so it wasn't like the most

925
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,559
insane thing either. Like when you said that, I was like, yeah,

926
00:45:55,599 --> 00:45:57,840
I have someone really good dropped. Yeah, you should do that.

927
00:45:58,199 --> 00:46:01,360
You should get your guys. So that makes sense a

928
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,079
lot of times in leagues two, over the summer, some

929
00:46:04,119 --> 00:46:06,079
guys become available and you might drop a lot of

930
00:46:06,079 --> 00:46:08,880
fab that way, and you just don't need it mostly

931
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:10,800
through the year because not a lot. It's hard to

932
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,039
stream in those leagues there isn't too many guys out there,

933
00:46:13,199 --> 00:46:14,519
or if you have a streamer, it's just like a

934
00:46:14,559 --> 00:46:17,239
fourth liner who has a good schedule, So it's not

935
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,320
a make or break kind of thing.

936
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,079
Speaker 2: It tells you all you need to know that I

937
00:46:20,159 --> 00:46:23,119
still had one hundred percent of my fab in February

938
00:46:23,599 --> 00:46:26,440
of that league when the playoffs. Actually I think stiverna

939
00:46:26,559 --> 00:46:29,280
like ten of February beginning of March. So yeah, I'm

940
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,800
not a guy to Nicolin die my fab and usually

941
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,239
I end up with some in excess at the end,

942
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,840
So yeah, I was happy about that. The prospect drafts

943
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,639
really where you have higher shares that actually I think

944
00:46:39,679 --> 00:46:42,960
sometimes indicates more who you were high on because you

945
00:46:43,039 --> 00:46:45,519
were taking that in a discrete set of picks, and

946
00:46:46,039 --> 00:46:48,599
especially a prospect guy who is maybe like a second

947
00:46:48,639 --> 00:46:51,119
round or late first round pick, if you took it

948
00:46:51,159 --> 00:46:53,519
ahead of of other people, I think it's a little

949
00:46:53,559 --> 00:46:56,719
more indicative even than some of the pros who are

950
00:46:57,119 --> 00:47:01,639
spread over a number of rounds. Anyway, Victor, this has

951
00:47:01,679 --> 00:47:04,599
been fun, as it has been every year. Why don't

952
00:47:04,599 --> 00:47:16,760
we take a break and come back Colcup show you

953
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,599
know you really ought to be playing your league's on

954
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,559
fan tracks. You got ten different sports you can be playing.

955
00:47:22,039 --> 00:47:25,960
You got the most options for scoring, salaries, contracts, rookie eligibility.

956
00:47:26,679 --> 00:47:30,599
I'm in a league today where for basketball I already

957
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:34,159
did a rookie draft in the league, and now in

958
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,239
the same league, mind you, I'm going to be doing

959
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,360
a supplemental auction that will go on for a couple

960
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,119
of hours. Same league. You can run a straight draft

961
00:47:43,159 --> 00:47:47,039
and an auction. So it's just there's just more stuff

962
00:47:47,079 --> 00:47:49,679
you can do there than anywhere else. All the rookies

963
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,079
are going to be there, everything you need to know.

964
00:47:52,199 --> 00:47:55,840
Fan tracks HQ is booming with hockey content right now.

965
00:47:56,559 --> 00:47:58,559

see all kinds of weekly updates and so forth. FAHL

967
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,840
as a whole team, we thank our FHL crew because

968
00:48:07,039 --> 00:48:10,960
there is a lot going on here. Crafter Ryan, Simo,

969

Tim They are the commissioner team for the Tidy leagues,

970
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:19,880
and Ryan the Tidy Admiral himself occasionally helps with our

971
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:24,519
show prep. Jeremy V and Tony are lead scouts. They

972
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,639
help us organize all the different scouts who are doing

reports for us on a continuous basis. Brandon, our website guru,

974
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,400
and I believe you're gonna hear him on an upcoming episode,

975
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,039
is helping with prospect ranks and visualizations like the famous

976

FHL player cards. If you have skills you'd like to

977
00:48:41,119 --> 00:48:42,880
lend to the show. You think it would be cool

978
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,519
to help us out and to maybe you know, we

979
00:48:45,559 --> 00:48:48,480

does there. That's a paywall, but it's worth it. I

989
00:49:15,119 --> 00:49:17,719
do a solo show, Dynasty Sports Life. I talk different

990
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,280
dynasty sports, sometimes multiple in the same week. I've been

991
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,599
doing something called the Tidy City Blenders or the City

992
00:49:25,599 --> 00:49:28,400
Blender Editions, and that's where I take all four sports

993
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,800
from one city's sports teams and rank them in terms

994
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,440
of the old men who A couple of those who

995
00:49:34,519 --> 00:49:37,800
could help out your leagues, your dynasty leagues. A few

996
00:49:38,079 --> 00:49:40,639
