game two of the stanley cup final happened last night that was another great game fantastic the cup final has been outstanding right from the get-go the first two games have been what 10 out of 10 and there's been goals yeah lots of goals i didn't think there would be and mistakes mistakes goals overtime i mean it's had pretty much everything already unpredictability yeah it's been dynamite it's been dynamite so i mean um i'm excited for game three we'll see what happens when the series ships to vegas here
I'm a lot more encouraged it'll go either 6 or 7 after last night. Yeah. I was starting to think, do we dust the brooms off? Is it going to happen? I was getting a little... I know. I was getting a little 1995 New Jersey Devils vibe over Detroit. Right, right. You know, like the physical, stiff defensive team that... I remember it well, yeah. Shuts down the high-skilled, high-paced offensive squad that breezed through their side of the bracket the way Detroit did in 95. Yeah.
Josh was in his pre-embryonic stages at that point. Yeah, I was minus three years old.
Yeah, well, apparently, since he wasn't alive, it never happened, right? Yeah, exactly. Like any millennial.
Yeah, pretty much. Are you even a millennial? I think I'm in the weird in between. Oh, okay. Because I identify with aspects of both millennials and Gen Z. I think I'm a zillennial.
You can pick whatever...
you know age group that you want yeah because i was born in 84 so i'm kind of like technically in the millennial but like i grew up with without the internet for the most part i didn't have a computer and cell phone until i was like 19 years old or whatever it was so i grew up like not being around the internet a lot
I think I narrowly qualify of just getting into millennial at the front end. Something like that. By being a late 81.
Yeah, it's like that range, but you're kind of in between both to some extent.
So the age, I did one quick Google and here are the years. So 1981 to 96 is millennial. 97 to 2012 is Gen Z. So I guess I'm Gen Z. You're Gen Z. Wow. Bringing youth. Same with Zach. Two Gen Zs, two millennials on the show today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got the old heads and the young heads.
Or it's just experience and wisdom, Sat. Let's just take the wisdom and experience part. We'll roll with that.
I know. Although I've been called an unk and I'm not happy about it.
All right, let's get to the questions. All right. Beginning with Fergus, what does an ideal rebuild look like to you in a nutshell?
One that's successful and leads to playoff appearances and a cup window within five years. Or one that wins a Stanley Cup. Yeah, ultimately. That's honestly the best way of phrasing it. The best rebuild of any rebuild. Yeah. But a successful rebuild is one that can get this organization truly contending in five years. Like, I think that's being realistic. Like cup contending? Yeah, I mean, I don't need you to be a pure tier one cup contender by five years, but like you're starting to knock on that door. Right.
You can see the path to cup contention.
I want to see year over year success. Like even... Year over year improvement? Sure, but even as... much as the Leafs have been mocked, I take the last 10 years of being in the playoffs every single year compared to what the Canucks have done in basically a similar timeframe. Yeah.
