0:00
Let's take a look at some OHL standings.
0:04
Number one in the east is Sudbury, Oshawa, North Bay, Brantford, Mississauga, Ottawa,
0:10
Kingston all clinched.
0:11
Damn.
0:12
Yeah, let's go on then.
0:13
Yeah.
0:14
Seven teams in the east already clinched.
0:16
Six teams in the west clinched it looks like.
0:18
Saginaw, London, Sioux, Kitchener.
0:20
Wait, hold on, what's this?
0:24
The Erie Otters.
0:25
There's an X next to...
0:26
What does that mean?
0:27
I don't know, I haven't seen that since 17.
0:32
I haven't seen that in like seven years.
0:33
What does that mean?
0:34
Does that mean we clinched the playoffs?
0:35
Wait, the Erie Otters clinched the playoffs?
0:38
Does that mean the Erie Otters clinched the playoff spot?
0:40
We're in baby!
0:43
Let's go!
0:46
God, boys.
0:47
Let's go.
0:48
Let's go.
0:49
About time.
0:50
Let's go.
0:51
Where's the bottle of champagne?
0:54
I have other stuff in the fridge.
0:57
Celebratory champagne.
0:58
The Erie Otters, the underdogs.
1:01
Nobody said we could do it.
1:03
Everybody was doubting us.
1:04
But look at us now.
1:06
Erie Otters currently in the sixth seed have clinched a playoff spot in the OHL playoffs.
1:12
I'm so happy.
1:14
With that 12 point buffer over Sarnia in only six games to go.
1:19
They only have five games left in hand for that Sarnia, Sal.
1:23
Yeah.
1:24
Hey, knock knock.
1:25
Who's there?
1:26
Who's there?
1:27
The playoffs.
1:28
The playoffs who?
1:29
We're going.
1:30
The playoffs of the Erie baby!
1:31
Woo!
1:32
If you could tell, Collin still doesn't have a voice.
1:35
I wasn't even at the game today.
1:37
What were you telling us before we all sat down and started to BS a little bit?
1:43
You were saying you were screaming at your TV earlier?
1:46
I was screaming at my laptop because I had to game.
1:49
I couldn't start watching the Otters game until probably about a little bit into the
1:52
second period.
1:53
And I was about to get a noise complaint from my good neighbors, keeping in mind, my good
1:57
neighbors about me yelling at my laptop.
2:02
If that doesn't say anything.
2:03
Sorry, I'm starting to yell at my laptop.
2:04
Sorry, I'm watching the Otters game.
2:05
I hope you understand.
2:06
I was going to say, you told the police officers, oh yeah, by the way, we're in the playoffs.
2:11
That's why I'm screaming at you.
2:12
I'm watching the hockey game.
2:13
Sorry, Ossifer.
2:14
What the hell is an Ossifer?
2:15
Sorry, Ossifer.
2:16
I was watching the Otters game.
2:17
And get a point.
2:18
And we're fast.
2:19
So yeah, so going into this weekend, we're pretty much in the hands of Sarnia.
2:26
Sarnia lost both of their games that they needed to lose against London.
2:30
And who did they lose to this afternoon?
2:32
Kingston.
2:33
Kingston made a playoff spot with their win.
2:36
And then Otters getting the one point today, forcing overtime extra time against Owen Sound,
2:42
gave us that extra point that we need ahead of the ninth place buffer.
2:46
There's no way we can fall to ninth.
2:47
So we're going to be in the playoffs, we're going to see some playoff hockey in here,
2:50
baby.
2:51
Let's go.
2:52
About damn time.
2:53
Yeah.
2:54
Oh, and Sagan out-tied London for best in the league.
2:55
I didn't see that.
2:56
Damn.
2:57
Yeah.
2:58
But looking at the other playoff, our potential tentures throughout the end of the week, Barry
3:04
just needs to, I don't know what the next time Barry plays.
3:06
I don't think they play until Thursday.
3:08
But next, if Barry wins in regulation, their next game, they will catch the playoffs to
3:15
be the eighth and final team in the East to win over Peterborough and Niagara.
3:21
Now for the West, there are still two spots left.
3:25
The seventh place, Guelph, to draw us a clinch, and the eighth place, Flint, which watching
3:30
the game earlier, I had noticed that my voice is really bad.
3:34
It's bad.
3:35
It's bad.
3:36
You're not even at the game and it's bad.
3:38
But number one, if Flint ends up clinching the playoffs, if this be the first time since
3:45
Flint joined the OHL that all three American-based teams will be in the OHL.
3:51
Barry's actually playing an A.
3:52
Are they?
3:53
There's 20 minutes, there are third periods just about to start, and they're playing Oshawa.
3:58
And then they play tomorrow against the 67s, or I'm tearing up tomorrow, Tuesday the 12th
4:04
against the 67s, and then for the 14th against the 67s.
4:08
So if they win tonight, they clinch the last place spot in the East.
4:12
Now obviously for the West, the seventh and eighth place sees themselves up for grabs.
4:17
Yes.
4:18
Being held by Guelph and Flint respectively.
4:21
If Guelph wins, I think I said on, no, if their next game is Thursday.
4:25
Yeah, sorry.
4:26
If Sarnia loses on Wednesday and Guelph can win flat out, like straight outs, Guelph makes
4:34
the playoffs.
4:35
Now obviously Flint still has a little bit of ways to go, but.
4:39
They played 62, so they only got six games left and they got a 10-point buffer on ninth
4:44
place.
4:45
So either way, Flint needs to win, get three of the next four points, and Sarnia needs
4:49
to lose one more.
4:50
Pretty much.
4:51
Pretty much.
4:52
Guelph and Flint's fates now lie in the hands of Sarnia pretty much as well.
4:57
Also Windsor's done.
4:58
I think they're the.
4:59
They've been.
5:00
I think both them and Niagara are both officially done.
5:03
I think Peterborough's pretty much.
5:04
I think Peterborough would have to win out to make the playoffs, and Barry would need
5:07
to lose out in order to make it.
5:08
So I don't think that's happening.
5:10
Again, it all would depend on tonight's, like the last game played today with Peterborough.
5:16
It's very exciting.
5:17
Obviously we don't know the seeding yet.
5:18
We don't know who we're going to be playing.
5:20
I don't care.
5:21
I don't care.
5:22
We don't give a fuck.
5:23
We made it.
5:24
We made it.
5:25
Even if.
5:26
I mean the only team I think I would be scared of personally is Saginaw.
5:30
We've proven we can beat London.
5:31
We've proven we can beat Sioux.
5:32
We've proven we can beat Kitchener.
5:35
Past two games we've proven we can put up a good fight against Owen Sound being the
5:38
past two games both going to overtime, both having a third period, both being down going
5:43
into the third period or late in the third period tying the game up late.
5:46
We've proven we can fight against them up until the very end.
5:49
Which was a hell of a battle.
5:50
I'd say the only team right now I'd be scared of is Saginaw because we haven't seen much
5:53
of them this year.
5:54
I know we I think we've went pretty sure we've struggled against them when we have played
5:56
them.
5:57
And our next matchup against Saginaw is this upcoming Saturday.
6:01
Next Saturday game.
6:02
Yeah so this might be honestly the best tune up game.
6:06
It could be a playoff preview.
6:07
Say we maybe if we finish two and seven respectively.
6:10
Yeah if we two end up finishing eighth place in the west this could be a good tune up matchup.
6:15
We're like okay we can go back to this game.
6:17
We can see what our next spot is.
6:18
The only dream person I'd say would be fighting get that fifth spot and play Kitchener because
6:22
we've also proven that we can beat Kitchener like I just said.
6:24
I'd not try to go five either fifth or sixth.
6:27
So seventh would be a nice first round matchup but I don't want to play London this early.
6:33
That rivalry yeah.
6:34
I mean regardless let's be honest are we gonna get past the first round?
6:37
No.
6:38
Probably not.
6:39
But regardless of what happens we're gonna have to play London into playoffs.
6:43
I don't think London I don't see London getting eliminated first round no matter if they play
6:47
Guelph or if they play Flint or if they play us.
6:49
I don't think London is gonna lose in the first round.
6:50
I mean they got upset two years ago by Kitchener in the first round.
6:54
Yeah but they're not gonna play Kitchener though.
6:56
That's absolutely.
6:57
That was two years ago and they're not gonna do that again.
7:02
As much as I reckon they hate London that's not gonna happen again.
7:06
They're too good they're too tough of a team to let that go and to collapse in the first
7:12
round.
7:13
It's not gonna happen.
7:14
I gotta say because if regular season ended today the others would be playing the third
7:20
seed Sioux and obviously Sioux would have home ice advantage for that round.
7:27
After today that makes Eries full record including everything 28-27 5-2.
7:33
I don't think they're including today's game there yet.
7:37
Our streak should be 3-0 and 2 not just 3-0 and 1 because yesterday's lost 2.
7:41
It should be 3-0-1 and 1 so I don't think they're counting today's on our stats.
7:47
I think they're waiting.
7:48
I mean they put the expired name but I think they're officially waiting for everything
7:51
to update once that bear game is done.
7:54
So they need to win what two more games to take fifth?
8:00
No it's gonna be a fight down to the final game with Owen Sound.
8:02
Pretty much I'd say with Owen Sound and Guelph to whoever's gonna get the fifth spot.
8:06
I don't see Flint.
8:07
I mean Flint could very easily too.
8:08
So theoretically if we wanted to bump up to fifth we need to win.
8:15
We need to win that out.
8:16
I think a good way we need 12 points possible left for six games.
8:22
I think we need to get at least eight.
8:26
Maybe we could possibly sneak away a six or seven but I think eight points would be a
8:30
safe buffer to easily have a fifth or sixth seed.
8:34
I would easily say this the Otters they reached my expectations this year.
8:42
We gave Stan Butler a full year as head coach and he's proven that he's helped this team
8:49
prove that they can be a playoff team and sure enough they made the playoffs.
8:56
I mean Stan Butler definitely has the range.
8:58
Stan Butler knows what he's doing man.
9:00
He knows what he's doing.
9:01
He's taking this very young this very I honestly think I can get always saying the word immature.
9:06
I think we saw how we were last year.
9:08
Last year we let teams get into our head.
9:10
We'd fight back.
9:11
We'd claw.
9:12
We'd start fights and we'd get penalized and we'd give a power play goal because we
9:15
can't keep our mouth shut.
9:16
We'd get pissed off too easily.
9:17
This year there's been multiple times we've noticed that against in the big games against
9:21
London against Kitchener against the Sioux.
9:24
They pushed us and pushed us and pushed us trying to get under our skin knowing what
9:27
the team we were last year and we weren't letting it happen this year.
9:30
Again I mean Butler has the reins.
9:33
He has great control of this team.
9:37
Great everything.
9:40
Great aspirations.
9:41
Great everything.
9:42
To think about it now like now that the Otters are clinched like if you're colluding his
9:48
half season like a little less than half of the season with the Otters last year he's
9:53
only missed the playoffs three times.
9:55
I don't know if you can count last season because he was only there for us for like
10:01
15 games last year.
10:04
But as a full year like he's only missed twice.
10:06
Yeah I mean talk about penalty minutes.
10:10
This year as of today the Otters have 651 penalty minutes which is from what I see we
10:17
are one of the lowest teams.
10:19
I think we're the second lowest.
10:20
The only one I see is Niagara.
10:22
It's lower than us.
10:23
Six forty seven.
10:24
Oh and Sue.
10:25
Sue Niagara and Flint is it.
10:26
And then look at London's.
10:27
Yeah and then one.
10:28
That's like my kind of hockey.
10:29
Fun fact about 295 of those are Sawyer Bolton alone.
10:34
Yeah you got London just over a thousand.
10:40
You got who was it Mississauga at nine oh seven and the rest of them were eight hundred
10:45
below.
10:46
It's crazy to see the drop off from Peter bro man.
10:48
And that's the cup that's how it is in the week.
10:50
The cup hangover man.
10:51
We saw what happened to Brant Hamilton.
10:54
Brant Hamilton did it last year.
10:55
They won it the year before.
10:56
They won it in 22 and they saw they finished I think it was nearly did a lot.
11:00
I don't think they made the playoffs last year.
11:01
Yeah.
11:02
No they made the playoffs.
11:03
They embarrassed A-Winner and Scootin.
11:04
They didn't make a loss first round.
11:07
But quick shout out by the way to the Owen Sound the Attack Pack.
11:12
You guys made it fun.
11:13
You guys made it entertaining.
11:14
You guys gave us a reason to cheer even louder.
11:16
I doubt anybody from y'all are watching but or listening.
11:18
But that was fun.
11:19
You guys made it fun to watch and had a fun competition to scream.
11:24
So obviously I missed today's game the second game.
11:27
But that first game I was sitting in a row and there's this older couple sitting next
11:31
to my mom and I.
11:32
And you know one way I was about to get up and get leave.
11:36
Oh my god.
11:37
That's my voice I swear.
11:40
The one lady pulled me aside she's like I hope you know like this is like by far one
11:44
of the best three.
11:45
This is by far one of the best games that I've seen anybody play us.
11:49
And I don't care you know whether it's a game against London or a game against you guys
11:52
or whoever.
11:53
Like you guys have a fun arena.
11:57
And thank you for hosting us.
11:58
But you know I'm like yeah you know you guys are fun too.
12:01
But we'll get you tomorrow.
12:03
And unfortunately we didn't but I'm happy that we were able to.
12:06
And we again we clawed back down by two going into the third and fought back forced overtime.
12:11
Played amazing.
12:12
And we held position of the puck for 85 percent of that overtime which that helped.
12:17
So didn't give Ethan Frazier much much of a chance down there to to let one by.
12:22
So funny thing is that that only the six own sound goal.
12:28
I was I was here and Sean Bernard he was mentioning is like up to this point Ethan Frazier hasn't
12:35
that like all the shots he's faced since he's came in for Gibby.
12:39
He is in that one and then three seconds later he scores.
12:42
And I spoke too soon.
12:45
I spoke a little too soon there.
12:49
But it's great man.
12:50
It's great to see that positive record winning record of 28-27.
12:53
Not going to count the five overtime losses.
12:57
What five overtime losses?
12:58
We don't know how to show up in overtime but we if we can get past the overtime do we do
13:01
pretty damn well in the shootouts.
13:03
The only thing we're five and two six and two in the shootouts this year now.
13:06
The only concern when we get to the overtime is in playoffs that five on five continuous
13:13
OTA.
13:14
I mean well it's not going to be three on three.
13:15
We struggle with the three on three.
13:16
We struggle.
13:17
So the three on threes are.
13:18
We were obviously have yet to see this team what this team these guys can do in a five
13:22
on five overtime.
13:23
And I haven't seen that with any none of these guys have witnessed that yet.
13:28
So that's why I'm kind of glad they're finally going to get the monkey off their back and
13:32
finally get that experience.
13:35
I'm glad especially Brett Prasad is going to get to see some playoff time.
13:38
Yeah I was going to say Bedard.
13:39
He said something about that.
13:40
I think that also makes Ben Gujero I don't think he's missed the playoffs yet.
13:45
Assuming he might be back and healthy for playoffs which I think they said it's kind
13:49
of looking unlikely.
13:50
Well he was out of the boots.
13:53
So like.
13:54
Is he out of the boot now?
13:55
Yeah I don't know if he's practicing with the team obviously.
13:56
We can't release anything with you know most of the team being outraged or whatever.
14:01
I get that.
14:03
I wish I could say stuff.
14:05
I mean he's an adult and if he signs off on it I feel like he'd be okay.
14:11
Yeah.
14:12
But.
14:13
I think it should be a specific thing.
14:14
Every player is young 15, 16, 17.
14:17
How do their parents sign off on it?
14:18
Like hey are you comfortable with us releasing injury information?
14:22
If they say no then okay.
14:23
As long as both the player and one of the parents or guardians sign off.
14:30
Yeah that's fine.
14:31
You know I get it they're going to be doing this later on in the career.
14:34
Might as well get them used to it young and early.
14:36
But if you're a legal adult like Betty is.
14:39
As long as he signs off on it.
14:42
Then it should be fine.
14:44
The fight and the grit and the want and the urge that this team has this year man.
14:49
We've been we've earned this spot man.
14:51
We've earned it.
14:52
It's been a joy watching this team all year.
14:56
I mean there's been some nights where like we all met like they're.
15:01
I came against Niagara still by the angriest I've been with this team in years.
15:05
That's by the worst.
15:06
But other than that man like it's been a great year.
15:09
How did that rough start to the year?
15:10
I think we started like one and six or something.
15:12
But ever since then we've overcame that and we've played phenomenal.
15:15
And then got through the month of February which was which we knew was.
15:19
It was a tough month.
15:21
I think we finished 500 in the month of February.
15:24
That very tough like three sets of three and threes like did fantastic.
15:29
They got through it.
15:30
It was two sets of three.
15:31
Okay and then it was a three and five too somewhere in there.
15:33
Yeah look at us now.
15:35
Look at us now.
15:36
We were going in February not doubtful but scared I think.
15:39
We were like our expectations were high but we're like look we just got to get through
15:45
it.
15:46
500.
15:47
That's what we said and that happened so.
15:48
Yeah I definitely feel the month of February is the hardest.
15:52
Eerie.
15:53
Not alone with Eerie the OHL in general.
15:55
So we're riding a five game point streak.
15:57
Obviously that three game road streak we had last week which we talked about.
16:01
By the way yeah back to back weeks if you guys didn't notice yet.
16:04
Surprise.
16:05
We just decided we wanted to jump up here one talk about the Otters and two catch up
16:07
on the trade deadline.
16:08
But anyways yeah that three and five game point streak with the three road wins last
16:13
week and then the two extra times that we forced this weekend in Eerie.
16:16
So see if we can carry that on Wednesday against London when London comes back to Eerie for
16:20
the final time this season.
16:21
It will be my first.
16:23
Let's sweep London and Eerie this year man.
16:26
That'd be fantastic.
16:27
Man I'm so excited.
16:28
That's going to be my first game this year.
16:29
I've missed every game with surgeries.
16:32
I think the only one you've been to is the home opener.
16:35
Yeah I went to the home opener and then I got surgery like two weeks after or two months
16:39
after the home opener and then yeah I've ever sentenced that you know.
16:44
So if we can even force to get a point against London again.
16:50
I mean that's I would still consider that a season win.
16:53
Yeah.
16:54
Would that make us three two and one against them on the season.
16:56
So one and two in their barn but two oh in our barn this year.
17:03
I would say that and I am not not ASL but no.
17:10
You twats.
17:11
You twats.
17:12
Very exciting.
17:13
Very very good time to be alive and be an Otters fan right now man.
17:18
Oh yeah.
17:19
Seven years of this I can't imagine how Colin feels.
17:22
Finally his season ticket curse is broken.
17:26
You know seven years later after fucking spent this much money into these gosh-chart Otters
17:34
man.
17:35
And we're we're back in it baby and it's it's insane.
17:38
It's awesome.
17:39
And here's to many more years of dumping thousands of dollars into these Otters.
17:43
Hell yeah man.
17:44
Hell yeah.
17:45
It's all right.
17:46
It's worth it though.
17:47
I mean I've heard.
17:48
I think we're just going to keep it rolling here.
17:54
Do we want to do Puck Dooco?
17:55
Let's do it.
17:56
Yeah why not.
17:57
Fuck it.
17:58
We're in the mood.
17:59
Oh we've got the Penguins on here today.
18:00
So going across the top we got the Penguins, Lightning and Kings.
18:04
Colin is already typing in a name and going down the side for the rows we got Ottawa,
18:09
Detroit and thirty-sixth in a season.
18:12
Colin's going off already getting Derek Brassard for Penguins Senators and Oli Mata for Penguins
18:18
Senators, Detroit.
18:19
Let's get an off random one.
18:23
It's like James Neal.
18:25
Has he really gotten thirty assists in a season?
18:29
I feel like he didn't he was didn't he like have like an eighty ninety point season with
18:32
us.
18:33
I know he had like a forty goal season with us at one point.
18:35
Yeah but I might try to go with the same bet with Bovo and say same to Crosby.
18:39
He's the same as Ben.
18:40
He's going to be the only spot there.
18:42
We all know Crosby.
18:43
Let's do like Malkin then.
18:45
Everybody's going to go to Crosby.
18:46
But I might be reverse psychology and everybody's like oh everybody's going to do Malkin so
18:50
let me do Crosby.
18:51
Wait hold on.
18:52
See how they spelled Malkin?
18:53
Yeah they spelled her.
18:54
What?
18:55
I don't know why they did that.
18:56
They put a Y at the beginning of it.
18:59
Five percent.
19:00
Okay so we need Ottawa Tampa, Ottawa LA, Detroit Tampa, Detroit LA, thirty assists in a season
19:06
for Tampa and LA.
19:08
For Tampa and the thirty point assist couldn't we go.
19:12
Anybody Brayden Point?
19:13
Yeah I was about to say Brayden Point.
19:15
Brayden Point for thirty assists.
19:18
For these thirty points?
19:19
Yeah easy.
19:20
Six percent.
19:21
LA assists.
19:22
True Downey, on the kill guitar, Dustin Brown.
19:27
Dustin Brown would be a good one.
19:28
I don't know.
19:29
Dustin Brown was never a huge point getter.
19:30
He was more just like the captain.
19:33
He was never really the go getter.
19:35
Did he get a lot of points?
19:36
Go with Dustin Brown then.
19:37
I would say that or you know.
19:38
Alright there we go.
19:39
I just wanted to play it safe there.
19:40
Five percent.
19:41
Alright.
19:42
So we just need Ottawa Tampa, Ottawa LA, Detroit Tampa, Detroit LA.
19:47
You know what I should have done.
19:48
I realized my mistake now.
19:49
I should have put Dill Norton for Pittsburgh, Detroit and then only modern for LA Detroit.
19:54
Who for Detroit?
19:55
Pittsburgh?
19:56
Dill Norton.
19:57
Oh not Dill Norton.
19:58
David Braun.
19:59
I was going to say what?
20:00
I saw his face.
20:01
I was like.
20:02
I was about to say I just caught that.
20:03
I was like you should have caught Detroit.
20:04
Connor Sheery.
20:05
Did he play for Detroit?
20:06
Yeah.
20:07
I was like.
20:08
I was like.
20:09
Connor Sheery did he play for Detroit at one point?
20:13
No.
20:14
Did he not?
20:15
Okay.
20:16
I know he played for Tampa.
20:17
He's current.
20:18
He's current.
20:19
I thought so.
20:20
I'm thinking of Sprong former Penguins on Detroit.
20:23
Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Washington and Tampa.
20:25
I'm thinking of Sprong that's played for Detroit.
20:28
I think he's still over there.
20:33
Detroit LA.
20:34
Detroit LA should be easy.
20:36
I call him like right there.
20:39
These are going to be tougher than I thought.
20:46
Yeah just sweep it.
20:47
Ottawa Tampa.
20:48
Oh Nick Paul.
20:53
For Tampa Ottawa.
20:59
Nicholas Paul yeah.
21:02
Nice Jeff.
21:05
Nice Nick Paul Jeff.
21:07
I would not have gotten that one.
21:09
Holy neck.
21:10
It's cut off it looks like.
21:13
That's almost as big as my thumb.
21:17
You can squeeze your thumb in the screen in between his neck space there.
21:23
Brady Point's got a neck too damn.
21:26
That's not as girthy as Nick Paul.
21:28
That's thick with two Q's.
21:31
Nick Paul's neck looks like a cinder block.
21:33
That's thick with two Q's.
21:36
Right on your she hand.
21:39
I know you played for Detroit but did you play for Tampa or LA?
21:43
I don't think so.
21:44
I'd be more confident with LA but I don't want to waste it yet.
21:48
That's fine.
21:49
Out of those two I'd be more confident with LA but I'm not confident.
21:58
Has Bobby Ryan played for?
22:00
I know Detroit.
22:02
Ottawa.
22:04
Detroit Ottawa.
22:05
I think that's it.
22:06
Did he play for LA?
22:07
I don't think so.
22:08
Another one I'm not confident in.
22:09
I know LA I'm not confident in.
22:12
He's a Northwest pretty much.
22:14
Oh Ottawa.
22:15
LA Camp Talbot.
22:16
Yeah.
22:17
Oh shoot that's right.
22:18
Was he there last year?
22:19
Yep.
22:20
I was trying to think one year over there.
22:23
Nice Kyle.
22:24
Right now Detroit.
22:25
Again this is where I'm pissed off that I should have done.
22:30
Olly Modder.
22:31
Perron for Pittsburgh.
22:32
Detroit at Modder for Detroit LA.
22:34
Oh and also our Red Wings fan isn't here tonight.
22:39
Oh!
22:40
Andres Southiniseo.
22:41
For?
22:42
Detroit LA.
22:43
Hold on hold on hold on.
22:44
Are you guys going to try to spell it?
22:47
No no no.
22:49
Oh you're calling Ethan.
22:53
We're going to call Ethan on the phone here.
22:58
Live raw reaction.
23:01
Hopefully he picks up here.
23:08
I thought he picked up with the first three rings here.
23:23
I might not be getting them here.
23:26
The Google spy wireless.
23:28
Ah you bum.
23:29
I'm confident with Andres Southiniseo.
23:32
How do you spell that?
23:33
For Detroit LA.
23:34
I mean if you just type Andres I'm pretty sure Southiniseo will pop up.
23:39
I'm more confident with that than I would be with um.
23:43
Who was yours?
23:44
Raishy.
23:45
Raishy yeah I'd be more confident with Southiniseo then.
23:49
The minute this goes then Ethan's going to call.
23:52
Nice.
23:53
Ross Colton?
24:00
I don't think he played for Detroit.
24:08
Marty St. Louis never played for Detroit.
24:12
LeCavillier I don't think he ever played for Detroit.
24:15
I'll say not Mark Schloss because he never played for Tampa or LA.
24:20
Did Brian Elliott ever play for Detroit?
24:24
I don't think so.
24:25
St. Louis.
24:26
Terry Plumb.
24:29
Bernier I don't think played in either Tampa Bay or LA.
24:34
Reimer I don't think he played for either Tampa Bay or LA.
24:39
I'm confident if we're struggling I'm confident enough to go with Southiniseo.
24:44
Okay.
24:45
For Detroit, LA.
24:54
There it was.
24:58
Yeah AT I think it is.
25:05
Yes!
25:06
Nine!
25:07
Nine percent.
25:09
Alright um.
25:11
No percent.
25:12
Nine.
25:14
No oh my gosh.
25:16
That took me a second there.
25:19
Detroit Tampa.
25:20
I feel like that one's like right in front of.
25:25
I feel like we wish we kept up with more of the women so we could do the women's one too but we don't watch enough of it yet.
25:36
Got the junior and the women's on here today as well.
25:40
Detroit Tampa oh my god.
25:44
I feel like it should be right in front of there.
25:47
That's why I'm.
25:48
Like somebody current.
25:50
Darren Helm I think he was only Detroit and Colorado.
25:54
Would it be a goalie? Would it be defense man?
25:57
Goalie is yelling at me for some reason but I can't think of.
26:00
Detroit's got so many friend goal tenders recently.
26:04
Yeah but crap.
26:17
I don't know I can't think of any forwards but I'm thinking defense man or.
26:21
Defense man and goalies are like.
26:23
Mark's stall I don't think he ever played for Tampa.
26:26
That was a stall part of it that I was questioning because I know he played for Detroit but I wasn't sure.
26:33
Yeah okay.
26:36
Corey Perry never played for Detroit.
26:47
Oh this is tough.
26:49
I definitely agree with you guys on the goalie part but I can't think of.
26:53
Oh my god I'm thinking so I want to get this one.
26:56
Is there any like.
26:58
Cellios I don't think he played for Tampa.
27:01
Sergei Chavez only been with.
27:04
I think he's only been on Tampa. I don't think he played for Detroit.
27:07
Because they got him young he's still being he's still young he's only like 24 years old.
27:12
McDonald went to Nashville.
27:16
McDonald didn't play for Detroit.
27:18
Yeah so I know he went to Nashville.
27:22
Perot I don't think Terry Perot never played for Tampa.
27:25
He's only he's been around but I don't.
27:27
Perot played for Tampa.
27:28
No. No. I don't think.
27:32
There's at least one of these names that we have questioned and said no is going to be it I guarantee it.
27:39
So Breimer no.
27:41
Jonathan Bernier no.
27:43
Jimmy Howard no.
27:45
Chris Osgood no.
27:47
Dominic Hasek no.
27:49
No.
27:50
Billy Huso no.
27:52
What.
27:53
What are some of the other backups that they have. Who's their backup they have right now.
27:56
Jonah Johansson.
27:58
Detroit's backup.
27:59
Oh.
28:01
Who's the other guy besides Huso.
28:05
I think they do have Reimer again.
28:07
Either Reimer or Bernier.
28:08
I think Reimer is.
28:09
I think James Reimer.
28:12
Martin Jones is no.
28:13
I know they're going back and forth like.
28:15
Curtis McElhenney I don't know if he ever played for Detroit.
28:18
He was.
28:19
Vassie's backup for like three years.
28:21
No Reimer no McElhenney.
28:23
Okay.
28:25
Jonathan Reimer for Detroit.
28:31
This call is pushing one out.
28:33
Collins Bethan commentary brought to you live from the bookbusters.
28:40
Martin Jones is a no.
28:43
Oh we can get this one.
28:45
We can get this one.
28:46
Todd Vertuzzi is a no. Tyler Vertuzzi is a no.
28:51
Datsuk is going to be no.
28:54
Glenn Strum I think is a no.
28:57
Ryan Malone.
28:58
Oh my god.
29:02
Did you get one?
29:03
I think.
29:05
Now that he once he said Ryan Malone.
29:11
No no.
29:12
Ryan Malone has only paid for Pittsburgh Atlanta.
29:15
Or not Atlanta.
29:16
And Tampa.
29:17
Tampa.
29:18
But he's never played for Detroit.
29:19
That's.
29:21
McElhenney is a no for sure.
29:24
Yeah McElhenney is a no.
29:25
Okay.
29:29
Man.
29:32
I'm trying to think of current wings right now.
29:34
Patrick Kane no.
29:35
Debrink it no.
29:39
Radish no.
29:41
Yeah radishes a no.
29:42
Both radishes because Darren's over there in Tampa right now.
29:49
Oh man I don't want to just take the conceit on this one.
29:52
I want to at least get a good guess out there.
29:57
Yeah because we have a perfect shot for the 100% but.
30:02
The uniqueness is 76.
30:04
That's pretty low.
30:05
That's pretty good.
30:13
Oh my god.
30:14
I'm blanking hard man.
30:23
Who's on Tampa right now.
30:25
Or who's on Detroit right now.
30:31
Not Pertuzzi.
30:32
It's not Larkin obviously.
30:33
It's not Debrink it.
30:36
I don't think Bobby Ryan ever played for Tampa.
30:41
He might have but I don't think so.
30:45
Because I know Otto on Detroit for sure.
30:48
Tampa's just.
30:53
I don't want to I don't want to concede I at least want to get a good guess out there.
30:56
Ron Hainsey he's played fucking everywhere.
31:02
Alex Kuchingek.
31:04
Trevor Daley he played for Detroit I don't think he played for Tampa though.
31:10
Alex Kuchingek.
31:12
I mean could it be an ex-Otter we're just talking about the Otters.
31:15
I don't think so.
31:17
It's not the players that are Debrink it no.
31:20
Sorelli no.
31:21
Czernak no.
31:22
Fogel no.
31:23
Fogel no.
31:24
And I know Bullfresh is like I said.
31:27
No no ashes no.
31:29
Marchmint no.
31:31
Obviously we know McDavid's a no.
31:33
Strome's a no.
31:34
Let's see what it's thinking of.
31:38
Man.
31:40
Yeah I think we just got a thorough guess out there.
31:43
Man.
31:44
Damn it Ethan.
31:45
Why did you call me back about this?
31:47
What's an educated guess?
31:50
I don't even have one of those.
31:54
I mean we can try Huso.
31:56
No I know it's not Huso.
31:59
That's what I think is St. Louis in Detroit.
32:01
That's it.
32:02
Who's the backup card of Tampa?
32:06
Johansson.
32:07
Yeah Johansson or whatever.
32:09
Yeah Johansson I think his name is.
32:11
He hasn't been to Detroit I can tell you that much.
32:17
Marion Hosa I don't think he ever played for Tampa.
32:21
An answer I swear Detroit Chicago.
32:24
I just want to feel like Ron Haynes yeah I think it would be the best guess I have.
32:28
I don't think he played for Tampa.
32:30
I think he played for Tampa.
32:32
But I wouldn't be confident enough for Detroit.
32:35
Eric Cernak?
32:37
No.
32:38
No.
32:39
Detroit he'd be Tampa and LA.
32:43
My best guess would be Ron Haynes.
32:47
That would be the best guess I have.
32:50
I think he played for Tampa.
32:53
I can't think of.
32:58
Moment of truth.
33:01
Well alright.
33:05
Valtteri Filippi would be the most popular I would never have gotten that.
33:09
Adam Ernie, Nemestikov.
33:11
Luke Glennings.
33:13
Luke Glenn Denning.
33:15
I was going to say Mike Sillinger the one that has been played for like 15 fucking teams.
33:21
Drew Miller go dye your hair.
33:26
David Reist, Gavier, Kuch, Stammer, Headman, St. Louis, Richards, Points.
33:32
Dan Boyer, Sergeyev.
33:37
Francis Malkin.
33:39
The Tang was higher than Malkin.
33:41
Kunitz, Lemieux.
33:43
Would James Neal have been on there?
33:45
Damn would he guess him? James Neal?
33:50
Alright.
33:51
Alright well 8 out of 9 we'll take that.
33:53
That's pretty good.
33:54
Yep.
33:55
Alright moving on as we brought up earlier while we were talking about the Otters clinching the playoffs.
34:00
We said we were going to just catch up on everything that happened the past week at the trade deadline.
34:04
Which there was a fuck ton that happened this year.
34:06
There was definitely way more exciting I think than last year's trade deadline.
34:10
A lot of shocking and exciting moves happened this year.
34:13
The first big one that happened back on March 5th.
34:16
The Vegas Golden Knights acquiring forward Anthony Mantha from the Washington Capitals.
34:20
For a second round pick in 2024 and a fourth round pick in 2026.
34:24
I feel like the Capitals were kind of sellers.
34:28
Like not the big sellers of this year but they were sellers.
34:32
They sold a couple yeah.
34:34
I think we're going to try at the end here to rank all of them how we think all of them did.
34:39
And I think we're also going to just try to skip over if they were just exchanging draft picks then that's not, we all think that's necessary for us to go over so.
34:46
But the Mantha one that's an interesting pick up for the bank because I like that one for them.
34:50
Also probably one of the bigger ones earlier on in the trade deadline.
34:55
March 6th the Panthers acquire Teresanko from the Senners.
35:01
For a conditional fourth round pick in the 24 drafts and a third round pick in the 25 drafts.
35:06
Which that's a big pick up for four.
35:08
Yeah.
35:09
They are really trying to load up for.
35:12
Trying to make another cup run in that.
35:14
Alrighty same day March 6th Colorado Avalanche acquire defenseman Sean Walker in a fifth round pick in the 26th NHL draft from the Philadelphia Flyers for Ford Ryan Yohanton in a conditional first round pick in the 2025 NHL draft.
35:30
I like Yohanton going to Colorado.
35:32
I do too.
35:33
Or going to Philly.
35:34
Sean Walker coming into Colorado.
35:36
I don't.
35:37
You don't like anybody going to Philly.
35:39
Well yeah that's fair.
35:40
Like I hate the fact that fucking Jamie Drysdale is in Philly.
35:44
I mean he got out of Anaheim so I'm happy for him on that matter.
35:49
I like the fact that the payment is paying more because then we can see him more paying in Pittsburgh versus once a year when he is on Anaheim coming to the East Coast.
35:59
Or takes only three times to reach out to Columbus and Buffalo.
36:02
And yeah.
36:04
That's going to be fun.
36:05
I'm excited to see.
36:06
I might be my only Philly jersey.
36:10
As long as it's not the name plate jersey.
36:12
I would buy a Flyers jersey if I hadn't had Drysdale in the back.
36:15
Same.
36:19
Alright.
36:22
The on March 6th the Colorado Avalanche acquired for Casey Middlestad from the Buffalo Sabres for defenseman Bolin Barham.
36:36
So one want trade.
36:37
One for one.
36:38
That's one of the more fairest one for one trades we've seen in quite some time.
36:43
Yeah.
36:44
Middlestad.
36:45
I mean he did good in Buffalo.
36:47
He really did good in Buffalo.
36:49
He was fun to watch.
36:50
But Barham also did good in Colorado.
36:52
But it would be interesting to see in the long run.
36:54
Because I know Jeffy and I are going to go see both Barham and Buffalo here in a couple of weeks.
36:59
But like it would be interesting to see in the long run what these two players do for.
37:04
I mean they both got what they need.
37:05
Colorado is getting a very solid middle 6 forward there in Casey Middlestad.
37:09
And Buffalo is getting some of them.
37:11
They need a defenseman that's not named Owen Power or Rosamund Stalin.
37:15
So they're getting a very solid second line defenseman there.
37:19
It might even be first.
37:20
But I say Bum Power down to the second line.
37:22
Very solid first line defenseman there.
37:24
Well the only thing I have for Buffalo would be you know.
37:26
Maybe have Power on one.
37:28
Dallin on one.
37:29
And Byram on one.
37:30
So at least you have one good solid defenseman on each one of the pairings.
37:35
Just because there are teams out there that have.
37:37
I mean we all know Dallin is first line.
37:40
But I don't know if either Bum Byram or Power third line worthy though.
37:45
That's the thing.
37:46
I think they're both better than by line.
37:48
Both of them are our first line worthy in Buffalo.
37:52
Buffalo!
37:53
But anywhere else maybe their second or first.
37:57
I know Byram in Colorado is third.
38:00
But in all respect Colorado has that defensive core that you can bounce Byram around.
38:08
And you're going to do good defenseman.
38:10
So who knows.
38:12
But like if you're smart if you're defensive like Buffalo.
38:16
I feel like Byram can be like.
38:18
Byram and Power bounce back and forth between two and three.
38:22
And again you at least have one good defensive person.
38:26
Against if you have a good three lines there.
38:29
At least you have one good defenseman.
38:31
Yeah.
38:33
Also on March 6th the Edmonton Oilers acquire Fords Adam Henrique.
38:37
Sam Carrick and unassigned draft choice goalie Ty Taylor.
38:42
And the seventh round draft pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
38:45
As part of a three team trade with the Anaheim Ducks and Tampa Bay Lightning.
38:49
Anaheim receives a first round pick in 2024 draft.
38:52
And a conditional fifth round pick in the 2025 draft from Edmonton.
38:55
Tampa Bay receives a fourth round draft pick in the 2026 NHL draft from Edmonton.
39:00
These three team trade ones always get so confusing.
39:02
Like who's going where.
39:04
Like the Pittsburgh and for Eric Carlson one.
39:07
Where Mike Hoffman was a penguin for like two minutes.
39:10
Salpe you go here.
39:12
No Oprah you can pick.
39:14
You get a pick.
39:15
You all get picks here.
39:16
All good draft picks.
39:19
Wendberg is kind of a good four.
39:22
Good four right.
39:24
He's good yeah.
39:25
Yeah.
39:26
Alright then the Rangers acquire Ford Alex Wendberg from the Kraken.
39:28
For a second round pick in the 2024 draft.
39:31
As well as a conditional fourth round pick in the 2025 draft.
39:36
Let's see.
39:37
Last March 6th Vegas Golden Knights acquire a defenseman Noah Hannah Finn.
39:42
And a third team traded with the Flames and the Flyers.
39:45
Calgary receives a first round draft pick in the 2025 NHL draft.
39:51
Defenseman Daniel Mironov.
39:55
And a conditional third round pick in the 2025 draft.
39:59
Philadelphia receives a fifth round pick in the 24 NHL draft.
40:04
Pretty nice very solid pick up there for Vegas.
40:07
Yeah.
40:08
Yeah.
40:09
Vegas went off this year.
40:11
And you'll see if you guys haven't heard about everything.
40:13
They're insane.
40:16
But starting on March 7th the Toronto Maple Leafs acquire defenseman Joel Edmondson.
40:23
From the Washington Capitals for a third round pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
40:28
And a fifth round pick in the 2025 NHL draft.
40:33
Alright.
40:35
A small one on the March 7th.
40:37
We don't really need to talk about the one about Jacob Perot going to Anaheim.
40:40
Not really important there.
40:41
But Edmondson acquires defenseman Troy Stretcher.
40:44
And a seventh round pick in the 2024 draft from the Coyotes.
40:47
In exchange for a fourth round in 2027.
40:51
A couple smaller ones.
40:53
The Avalanche acquire Duhaime from Minnesota for a third round in 2026.
40:59
Avalanche acquire Ford Trennan.
41:02
And the right-stripped onside draft defenseman Sward for...
41:08
Graham Sward. That's a name.
41:10
That's a pretty cool name.
41:12
Graham Sward.
41:14
But the bigger ones on March 7th came to Nashville in the name of Anthony Bolivier.
41:23
From Chicago for a fifth round pick in the 2024.
41:26
I feel like the third or fourth different team Bolivier has played for this year.
41:29
Well he wasn't in Chicago long because he started in Vancouver at the beginning of the year.
41:34
So continuing March 7th Maple Leafs acquire unsigned draft choice defenseman Kade Webber.
41:40
From the Carolina Hurricanes for a sixth round pick in the 26th NHL draft.
41:44
Again not really a big name as of yet.
41:47
Who's going to do the heartbreaker?
41:52
That'll fall on me.
41:54
Sadly I had to read it.
41:58
Go to the declare one Jeffy.
42:00
I was excited to know which one you wanted me to go to.
42:04
But the Tampa Bay Lightning acquire Ford Anthony D'Eunclair for a seventh round pick in the 2025 NHL draft.
42:12
From the San Jose Sharks for defenseman Jack Thompson.
42:16
And a third round pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
42:20
I like the declare going to Tampa.
42:22
I like that one.
42:23
Skip this one it's too heartbreaking.
42:25
It's too heartbreaking.
42:27
If the Augusting
42:29
has today I'd be wearing the Gensel jersey.
42:31
I would be.
42:32
I was thinking about it too.
42:34
It's probably the biggest move at the deadline so.
42:38
It has to be said.
42:40
Carolina Hurricanes acquiring Ford Jake Gensel.
42:43
And defenseman Ty Smith.
42:45
From the Pittsburgh Penguins for Fords Michael Bunting.
42:47
Prospects Vasily Ponomarov and Vili Kovinen.
42:52
The rights to Ford Cruz Lucius.
42:56
And the conditional first round pick in the 2024 draft.
42:59
And the conditional fifth round pick in the 2024 draft.
43:02
Now I believe the conditions to this first round draft pick is
43:06
Carolina has to at least make the Eastern Conference Finals.
43:08
For that to be a first round pick.
43:11
Now the return for that for Jake Gensel.
43:15
Is it enough?
43:17
No.
43:18
I'm not disappointed with getting Michael Bunting.
43:21
I feel like we could have gotten away with getting a first round not a conditional first round.
43:25
Yeah.
43:26
That's kind of my only.
43:27
Or if it made it a second and a fourth rather than a conditional first and a conditional fifth.
43:32
I think it would have just been second and fourth.
43:33
I think it would have been good.
43:35
I'm excited to see Ponomarov.
43:37
I know he played two games for Carolina this year.
43:39
Like three points in two games or two points in two games.
43:42
And Kovinen is going to be.
43:43
Kovinen is going to be pretty.
43:44
He's doing really really good in his league he's currently in.
43:47
Cruz Lucius I heard is doing also very good in his league.
43:49
Another really dope ass name.
43:51
Cruz Lucius.
43:52
Really cool name.
43:54
I didn't see that March 8th when Malcolm Subban is still in the fucking league.
43:57
What?
43:58
He's technically a prospect.
44:00
I didn't even know he was still playing.
44:01
Yeah.
44:02
March 8th as you said you know Malcolm Subban.
44:05
You know not as good as his brother P.K. but you know.
44:09
CBJ acquires Malcolm Subban from St. Louis for future considerations.
44:14
But the big one.
44:15
One of the big ones on March 8th.
44:18
Carolina Hurricanes acquires the salt sniffer.
44:22
The sugar sniffer.
44:24
The Coke adding the salt.
44:27
Kuznetsov for the Capitals for a third run pick in 2025 drafts.
44:31
I think what's funny I love how the Hershey Bears immediately thanked him.
44:36
I think he played one game for them.
44:39
I want you guys to know and I didn't tell you this ahead of time.
44:43
But like my my manager my trick manager is a Capitals fan.
44:48
And like I went to go chirp him about his koozie trade and how what do you talk about this.
44:53
And a couple days later the paint was lost six to nothing against the Capitals.
44:58
He's like hey how about the caps like shut up.
45:02
I don't want to know.
45:05
So it was not a good time.
45:08
All righty.
45:09
Continuing March 8th Florida Panthers acquire Ford Kyle Okposo from the Buffalo Savers.
45:15
The fossil.
45:16
For defenseman Cal.
45:19
Say saline.
45:22
Jalen.
45:23
Go ahead and say the troops.
45:25
Good.
45:26
Good.
45:27
Cal Jeff.
45:28
And a conditional pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
45:33
The fossil is out of Buffalo.
45:36
Good.
45:37
Shoot it.
45:38
Shoot it.
45:39
Settled.
45:40
Settled.
45:41
Oh.
45:42
Get the fossil off the ice.
45:45
Yes.
45:46
That was great.
45:47
Great great times.
45:48
A couple small ones back to back on March 8th.
45:51
Anaheim acquiring Ben Myers from Colorado in exchange for a fifth.
45:55
Rangers getting Chad Ruedel from the Penguins in a fourth round pick.
45:58
That's fine.
45:59
Third line defenseman.
46:00
Seventh defenseman at best for Ruedel.
46:02
I'll take a draft pick for that.
46:03
Yep.
46:04
One of the other bigger ones that happened on March 8th was a Winnipeg Jets acquiring
46:09
Tyler Toffoli from the New Jersey Devils for a third round pick in 2024 and a second round
46:14
pick in 2025.
46:15
I think that's a pretty solid pick for Winnipeg there.
46:18
Jason Zucker going to his fourth NHL team in Smashville.
46:24
That's going to be cool to see him in a Nashville jersey.
46:28
Arizona.
46:29
Going to see him back in the gold pretty much.
46:31
Yep.
46:32
Arizona gets a sixth round draft pick for it.
46:34
Oh yeah.
46:35
You can see him play with former Otter Ryan O'Reilly.
46:36
That's going to be exciting to see.
46:38
Yeah.
46:39
Let's see.
46:40
Continuing on the eighth.
46:42
Justin Bruin's acquired forward Pat Maroon from the Minnesota Wild for Luke Toporowski
46:47
and a conditional sixth round pick in the 26th NHL draft.
46:53
Yeah.
46:54
Pat Maroon going to Boston.
46:55
That's...
46:56
Boston.
46:57
I mean, I don't love it, but I'd like to see him get another cup.
47:01
I'd like to see him get his fourth.
47:02
Yeah.
47:03
I really didn't want to see Ethan's live reaction to that.
47:06
In all honesty.
47:07
Because I think he is the one who brought that up in the group chat there.
47:12
Pat Maroon.
47:13
Yeah.
47:14
He might have.
47:15
He did.
47:16
The Philadelphia Flyers acquired defenseman Eric Johnson from the Buffalo Sabres for a
47:21
fourth round pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
47:24
So we can see obviously Sabres are selling.
47:26
Yeah.
47:27
Doing their fourth rebuild of the rebuild.
47:30
In depth.
47:32
Another smaller one, Boston acquiring forward Andrew Peek from the Columbus Blue Jackets
47:39
for defenseman Jakub Zaboral in the third round pick in the 2027 draft.
47:43
A peek?
47:44
A peek.
47:45
Back there.
47:46
And then a couple other small ones before we jump over to Colin.
47:50
The Flyers acquiring Dennis Garrianoff from the Predators.
47:54
Flyers getting Magnus Helberg from Pittsburgh for a conditional seventh.
47:57
Who?
47:58
Exactly.
47:59
I don't think he played a single game for us.
48:00
You mean Florida, not the Flyers.
48:02
Did I say the Flyers?
48:03
Yeah.
48:04
Oh, sorry.
48:05
Florida acquiring Magnus Helberg from the Penguins.
48:08
And yeah.
48:09
Jake Allen going to New Jersey via Montreal.
48:15
Tampa Bay acquiring defenseman Matt Dumba at a seventh round pick in 25 to the Arizona
48:23
Coyotes, a fifth round pick in 27.
48:26
That's going to be cool to see Dumba in the lightning.
48:28
What am I supposed to say?
48:30
I know the Devils are desperate for a goalie right now.
48:32
Out of all of the goalies that were available at this deadline, they went for Jake Allen.
48:36
Out of anybody, they could have went for Nadokvish, they could have went for Jarri, they could
48:41
have went for anybody.
48:42
And they go for Jake Allen.
48:44
Helenbuck I know is up there because I don't think he has resigned his contract with Winnipeg
48:48
yet.
48:49
I don't know.
48:50
They could have gone for anybody and they went for Jake Allen.
48:51
I've had Jake Allen on my fantasy a few times this year and he's gotten me a really good
48:56
amount of points last year.
48:57
It's because we're in a point per save league.
48:58
That's why.
48:59
Still.
49:00
Montreal's defense is shit.
49:01
They lit up a lot of shots.
49:02
Still.
49:03
I don't know if anybody they got Jake Allen.
49:05
Let's see.
49:06
Oh boy.
49:07
Calgary, yeah Calgary, oops.
49:09
Calgary Flames acquired defenseman Nikita Okhukachuk from the San Jose Sharks for a fifth
49:21
round pick in the 24th round.
49:24
Whoever you are, I'm sorry I butchered the shit out of your name.
49:28
Bless you.
49:29
I don't know where you are, who you are, I butchered the shit out of your name.
49:35
Go to the Jets one there Jeff.
49:37
The Winnipeg Jets acquired defenseman Colin Miller from the New Jersey Devils for a fourth
49:43
round pick in the 2026 NHL draft.
49:46
Miller, that's one of my favorite beers.
49:49
Miller.
49:50
This is one that I don't think, this one happened like within seconds of the trade deadline
49:53
and then they were just getting Vegas just adding on even more.
49:56
I think they said they're not 10 million over the cap.
49:59
Jesus.
50:00
Because right back on LTR.
50:01
Because they have put stone on LTR.
50:03
There's one other guy that's on LTR.
50:04
So you know they're reviewing the LTR rule.
50:06
Cap rule.
50:07
Because of Vegas now.
50:08
Well I was talking to somebody a few days ago and they said that's illegal.
50:13
You can't throw a healthy person like that on LTIR.
50:17
Well he is injured but I mean.
50:19
Well he's.
50:20
But then throw him in the game.
50:21
Throw him in the game to want his playoffs.
50:22
Yes.
50:23
Yeah they put him on LTIR because of a small injury.
50:26
And then they made him healthy after.
50:28
The trade that caused all this drama is Vegas acquiring four Thomas Hurdle in a third round
50:34
pick in the 2025 draft and a third round pick in the 2027 draft from the Sharks for four
50:40
to David Edstrom in a first round pick in 2025.
50:43
That seems like a major hurdle to jump.
50:45
That seems like a lot for Vegas to get for.
50:48
Yeah.
50:49
Getting Hurdle and a third and two thirds for David Edstrom.
50:53
Who?
50:54
Like what the hell is that?
50:57
You guys missed my joke so.
51:00
Yeah.
51:03
Alright since Colin walked away.
51:05
I'll go.
51:06
I'll say Burt what the hell.
51:08
New York.
51:09
Yeah the Rangers yeah yeah.
51:10
So yeah continuing with the New York Rangers acquire forward Jack Rose of Lick from the
51:17
Columbus Blue Jackets for a conditional fourth round pick in the 26 NHL draft.
51:21
We can obviously see Columbus are also huge sellers this year.
51:24
Yeah.
51:25
I mean I'm excited to see some of those new.
51:27
We might have to make a trip to Columbus this year or next season or the season after to
51:31
see all these fresh guys.
51:32
There's going to be nobody.
51:33
They're going to be all 20 year olds.
51:35
So what bro?
51:36
It's going to be boring.
51:37
So what?
51:38
The Toronto Maple Leafs acquire for Connor DeWeer from the Minnesota Wild for a four
51:46
Demetri Ovechnikov.
51:47
What's your.
51:48
Shut up.
51:49
Shut up.
51:50
That's my joke.
51:51
I want to know what's your joke.
51:55
For a four front pick in the 2026 draft.
51:59
And I got the last one.
52:02
The San Jose Sharks acquire Vita Vitecek and a seven turn pick in the 25 draft for the
52:10
Devils for Kapo Kakkonen.
52:13
Okay.
52:16
So the two again the best goalies out there and the two that the Devils got are Kapo Kakkonen
52:22
and Jake Allen.
52:23
Out of anybody they could have gotten.
52:25
That's the two that they got.
52:26
Yeah.
52:27
What a bunch of bums.
52:28
But I think right now we're going to jump over to grading what every team did.
52:35
Colin already has a tier list here on tier maker set up.
52:38
We have tiers A, B, CDF and dejection.
52:42
Yes.
52:43
F and dejection are two separate categories.
52:46
So for dejection.
52:48
I got the yard put on there.
52:51
The owners did.
52:52
When it came to Jackson.
52:54
No, we got a couple of nice ones.
52:56
To fully they got.
52:58
I mean, it's not doing it.
53:00
Who didn't do much.
53:01
The senators didn't do a lot other than getting rid of Tarasenko.
53:05
So they can go and F.
53:06
Dallas didn't do anything.
53:08
Dallas didn't.
53:09
Chicago didn't.
53:10
Seattle.
53:11
I got Dallas.
53:13
Detroit didn't.
53:14
Why do you put Dallas in there?
53:17
Oh, I heard Dallas.
53:19
I'm like, wait, wait.
53:20
Detroit didn't do anything.
53:22
Seattle.
53:23
Seattle.
53:24
I think the only thing Seattle did was got rid of Wenberg.
53:26
They didn't do anything.
53:27
L.A. didn't do much either.
53:29
Vancouver didn't do much.
53:33
They did their big big big ones earlier this season.
53:36
They didn't do anything.
53:38
I think getting know they got.
53:41
Who the hell did they have that one small train?
53:45
Not at home now.
53:46
Who did it get?
53:48
It was one of the early like this March 4th or whatever.
53:51
What was the first one?
53:53
Troy stretcher and how else did they get it?
53:55
One of the sevens.
53:56
They got more to.
53:57
There's one other one.
53:58
Oh, yeah.
53:59
And Henrik and Carrick.
54:00
I think Edmonton did decent.
54:02
So maybe.
54:03
So the teams that didn't do much of anything.
54:04
Minnesota didn't do anything.
54:06
Besides getting rid of Pat Maroon.
54:09
Montreal.
54:10
Montreal didn't do anything except getting rid of Jake Allen.
54:15
Toronto didn't do anything.
54:19
St. Louis didn't do anything really.
54:21
Did San Jose really do anything?
54:23
I mean San Jose got rid of Thomas Hurdle.
54:26
That's an automatic F.
54:28
So let's start them off here.
54:30
I think we pretty much got all the did Jack shit ones out of the way.
54:33
Arizona I think is an F.
54:35
Because they got all they did is get they got rid of all their loans.
54:38
Matt Dumba, Troy stretcher, Jason Zucker.
54:41
Yeah, so they didn't do anything.
54:43
Penguins got an F.
54:45
Got rid of Jake and Brian Allen.
54:48
I'm sorry.
54:49
I put him at a D only because it's going to take time to see if that was the smart move.
54:53
And if he doesn't decide to just sign back with us at the end of the offseason.
54:58
Because he still signed the contract with Carolina.
55:00
What if instead of a D, what if we put him at a C?
55:02
We put him right at that middle.
55:03
I was pushing for D.
55:05
I don't think it's quite F.
55:07
I think it's more of a D.
55:09
I don't hate Michael Bunting coming over.
55:12
I was going to say Bo, you and I can't sign so it would be a D.
55:15
I think I would have one I would have liked to see included in that was Martin Nietzsche as well.
55:20
I would have liked to see like Nietzsche and Bunting and maybe one pick.
55:23
And I would have been okay with that.
55:25
Yeah, well I was going to say Capitals would be an F.
55:28
We still ended up getting more back than anybody else wanted to.
55:31
That's why it took so long because Dubis was not budging away from what he wanted.
55:36
Yeah.
55:37
And he ended up, people say he got fleeced.
55:39
I don't think that's the case.
55:40
At least not yet.
55:41
It's too early to tell if he got fleeced or not.
55:44
I'm looking to Washington Deer specifically.
55:47
Like they're more, like Pittsburgh, they're more sellers than buyers.
55:51
Yeah, they did not get a whole lot.
55:52
So I think they're a D.
55:53
D or F.
55:54
I think they're more of an F.
55:56
More of an F.
55:57
The moves that they did make were not good for them.
56:00
I mean they got rid of Manta, which that's pretty much all they did.
56:04
Right off the bat, let's throw some A's up there.
56:06
Vegas gets an A easily.
56:08
Florida gets an A.
56:10
Tampa gets an A.
56:12
Tampa gets an A, yeah.
56:14
Winnipeg I think would get an A.
56:17
Nashville, maybe a B.
56:21
Nashville, they didn't do much.
56:23
I mean they got...
56:24
They didn't do so much, but they didn't get much in return.
56:27
Maybe a C for Nashville.
56:28
Yeah, C for mid-tier.
56:30
Even though they only did like one or two moves, Buffalo, I don't hate that Bowen-Byram addition.
56:35
I think that itself is worth a C.
56:38
Yeah, it's a mid-country, so Buffalo's eating.
56:41
I guess Calgary's another one that didn't do much.
56:44
I guess we missed them.
56:45
So they probably put them under deject shit.
56:47
I know they got rid of Noah Hannifin.
56:49
So that's F-tier worthy, I think, more than it is deject shit.
56:54
All right, Anaheim.
56:56
Gone all three of them back to the Jamie Drysdale trade.
56:59
Yeah.
57:00
And they got rid of Adam Henry, got rid of Sam Carrick.
57:03
I think they're more of a D, because they're under the Selber trade versus anything.
57:10
So a D trade?
57:11
I think so, yeah.
57:13
All right, Boston.
57:14
Boston I think is a B.
57:16
A B.
57:17
Just like their logo.
57:18
Adding in Pat Maroon, adding in...
57:20
Was it Morgan Gakey?
57:22
Adding in...
57:25
They added in quite a bit.
57:28
But I think their biggest mistake was not getting rid of one of Swamen or Ulmark.
57:33
Yeah.
57:34
Because it's going to be tough.
57:35
They're going to lose one of them to free agency.
57:37
Or I think Swamen is the one that's going into...
57:39
Or is it Ulmark is the one that's going to be a free agent?
57:41
Ulmark.
57:42
Ulmark's going to be a free agent, so they're probably going to lose him for nothing.
57:44
So I think that if they had done something with him, I think they'd be an A.
57:48
But because they didn't, I don't think we can give them an A.
57:51
I mean, but they also got Jake, so I'd maybe even throw...
57:55
No.
57:56
Oh, I thought you were on Carolina.
57:57
No, we're on Boston.
57:58
So...
57:59
Okay.
58:00
Carolina's an A though.
58:01
Yeah.
58:02
Getting Jake...
58:03
I thought you were Jake and Kuzi.
58:04
Kuzi Netsov, yeah.
58:05
I mean, that's two top six forwards right there.
58:09
Jake I think was back for today's game, I think, for Carolina.
58:12
Might even be tomorrow, their next game.
58:14
He was eligible to be active from the IR today.
58:17
I already told him that.
58:18
I don't know if he was back for today, if he's going to be back for Carolina's next game.
58:21
Not sure.
58:22
I told my family...
58:23
But regardless, I'm going to try to tune in and watch Jake's first game in a game uniform,
58:26
for sure.
58:27
Oh, yeah.
58:28
Absolutely.
58:29
Colorado.
58:30
C.
58:31
I think C is valid, yeah.
58:32
Yeah.
58:33
C is pretty fair.
58:34
Yeah.
58:35
Occopus.
58:36
Maybe a D.
58:37
I mean, they got rid of a bunch of them.
58:43
I mean, they brought in Jakub Zuboril, getting rid of Rozlovic and Peak.
58:48
I mean, they didn't do a whole lot other than that.
58:51
I'd say F for them.
58:53
I'd say a D.
58:54
D or F?
58:55
I'd say more D than F.
58:56
They brought in at least somebody decent.
58:59
They got rid of a couple of good guys, but...
59:03
Joyzy.
59:04
No, Joyzy Devils.
59:07
F.
59:08
Juzzy.
59:09
I mean, Juzzy...
59:10
Goalie for Goalie.
59:11
Yeah.
59:12
Goalie for Goalie is pretty much all they did.
59:14
They got rid of Tyler Tafoli, got rid of Vitek Vanechik, which I think is one of the better
59:20
goalies they've had in a while.
59:21
Yeah.
59:22
So that's an F tier.
59:23
The Rangers...
59:24
I'd probably give the Rangers a B, I think, bringing in Wenberg, Rozlovic, and Chad Ruidl.
59:34
Rozlovic and Ruidl being good defense...
59:36
I think Rozlovic's a defenseman.
59:37
He could be wrong.
59:38
I don't know if they're quite B, but I don't know about that one.
59:46
Maybe a C at the highest?
59:48
Or a B at the highest?
59:49
I'd bouquet with them getting a B.
59:52
The Shaded Delphia Criers.
59:55
As much as I hate to say it, they went off, and they did pretty good.
59:58
They got Eric Johnson.
1:00:00
They got...
1:00:01
They had a game, Jamie Drysdale.
1:00:04
Drysdale are on in the season.
1:00:06
But yeah, I think getting rid of Sean Walker...
1:00:11
Yeah.
1:00:12
So I think that's a very valid trade for them.
1:00:16
I think I'd give them a B.
1:00:19
They did pretty good this year.
1:00:22
Yeah.
1:00:23
That's pretty quick tier list right there.
1:00:25
Yeah.
1:00:26
We knew that this episode wouldn't be super, super long.
1:00:29
But final rankings.
1:00:31
But breaking them up would have been the best for us.
1:00:34
For us in studio.
1:00:35
Maybe not for you, the audience.
1:00:37
As of right now, our plan is still to record next week as well,
1:00:40
which would have been our normal week.
1:00:41
So you guys are going to get three episodes three weeks in a row.
1:00:43
So you're welcome.
1:00:45
Let's go and do more for you guys.
1:00:48
Even though we're just being lazy because we don't want to do a three hour episode next week.
1:00:52
We're just making it easier by splitting it up.
1:00:54
But yeah, final rankings.
1:00:56
In Did Jack Shit, we got The Islanders, Dallas, Chicago, Detroit, Seattle, LA, Vancouver, Edmonton, Minnesota.
1:01:04
Montreal, Toronto, and St. Louis.
1:01:08
In the F category, we got Ottawa, San Jose, Arizona, Washington, Calgary, and the Devils.
1:01:14
In the D category, we got Schittsburg, Anaheim, and Columbus.
1:01:18
I have to say at this point, dude, we're garbage this year.
1:01:21
It's pathetic.
1:01:22
Yeah.
1:01:23
We outscored what, 19 to 1 in our last three games?
1:01:25
Yeah, get bent.
1:01:26
C tier, we get bent.
1:01:29
I've never said that word in my life.
1:01:30
Nashville, Buffalo, and Colorado in C tier.
1:01:33
B tier, we got B, Beantown, Boston, Bruins, the Rangers, and the Flyers.
1:01:40
And in A tier, the winners of this year's trade deadline being Vegas, Florida, Tampa, Tyler, Tyler Toffoli.
1:01:46
I said that.
1:01:47
Winnipeg, Jets.
1:01:48
Tyler Toffoli.
1:01:49
Tyler Toffoli himself, yeah.
1:01:50
Tyler Toffoli won the whole trade deadline himself because he's going to the Jets.
1:01:53
That's why I said that.
1:01:54
I don't know why.
1:01:55
And the Carolina Hurricanes also in A tier.
1:01:57
Obviously, if you're getting Jake, if you win the Jake Gensel sweepstakes, he was the biggest name going into the trade.
1:02:02
That's all you heard.
1:02:03
I couldn't scroll through my Twitter feed or Facebook feed for two seconds.
1:02:07
I was thinking, which team is going to land Jake Gensel?
1:02:09
Where is Jake Gensel going to go?
1:02:10
Which team is Jake Gensel going to choose?
1:02:12
Jake Gensel wants out of Pittsburgh.
1:02:14
Jake Gensel doesn't like shut the fuck up.
1:02:16
People just got to dramatize everything.
1:02:18
But anyways, yeah, I think that's a pretty solid list there for us.
1:02:21
Yep.
1:02:22
Yeah.
1:02:27
All right, yeah, after some discussion, I think we're pretty much done here.
1:02:29
So that's that's all we really came here this this evening to do is just catch you guys up on the trade deadline in case you all live under a rock.
1:02:36
And I'm not a sea of now we're getting copyrighted.
1:02:40
Way to go.
1:02:41
All right, Disney, but it's not our song that belongs to Disney.
1:02:44
You're under the rock and die rock in the studio.
1:02:51
Anyways, that's what that's what we do before this episode was worth nothing in this copy gets copyrighted and takes off Spotify.
1:02:58
We're going to wrap it up and call it a night.
1:03:01
I keep up with us in social media because that's all we talk about on these social media because I know that definitely the two most active on Twitter, Colin and myself.
1:03:10
So go follow the two of us, our private accounts and the Buckbusters account.
1:03:14
And I believe it is just at the Buckbusters on Twitter.
1:03:17
So it's not Buckbusters.
1:03:18
I think it is just at the Buckbusters.
1:03:20
Either way, if you follow one of us, you can find the other one and the book on Instagram.
1:03:26
We're Buckbuster Studios, I believe.
1:03:28
YouTube, we're Buckbuster Studios.
1:03:30
TikTok, we're Buckbuster Studios.
1:03:32
Either way, if you find one of us, you can contact one of us.
1:03:35
We'll give you all the links to whatever the heck it might be, whether it's TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, whatever the heck you decide to do.
1:03:42
I said, keep an eye out on YouTube.
1:03:44
I know Colin said he's had an idea brewing to punish us and torture us for like a trivia or something.
1:03:49
It's about episode.
1:03:51
Listen, Jeff and I, the only two here haven't done a punishment episode.
1:03:55
Really? I don't think you've done a punishment episode.
1:03:57
Honestly, I'd be down if you guys just wanted to team up and go off on the three of us.
1:04:00
No.
1:04:01
Whoa.
1:04:02
Jeffy, with all due respect, I have my own idea.
1:04:04
I just got to fine tune that idea.
1:04:08
With all due respect to you.
1:04:10
But again, follow us on social media, if not, what the buck are you doing?
1:04:15
Otherwise, until we meet again, we are...
1:04:21
Your Buckbuster Studio.
1:04:23
Until next time, peace out, guys.
1:04:26
See ya.
