Hour 2 Overdrive continues, powered by FanDuel. Got a big hour here, role play later in the hour. Rick sending a tweet in saying, can you get to role play? We will, Rick. We promise we'll get to role play at 530. I want to get to role play. Yes, we will. We will. We're going to do it, Ricky. We're doing it, Rick. We'll do it, Rick. We'll do it for Rick. For Rick. For Rick in particular.
We'll add in Rick as a level of concern. I like that idea. Rick. Rick, role play is a level of concern now. So we'll add you into it. Is that higher than Nick Cage? It's higher than Nick Cage. Nah, it can't be. Rick for role play is higher than Nick Cage. Okay. And boys, I want to give a little shout out to our buddy Mike Zeisberger, who's listening from 30,000 feet in the air. Nice.
Thank you, Zeis, for tuning in. Zeis, we love it. Great to hear that. Is he on the road with the Leafs? Is that what he's doing? He's heading out to Seattle? I'm assuming so. I'm assuming so. Okay. That's awesome. Shout out to Zeiss. We love hearing that. On his way to Seattle, I guess. Yeah, Seattle, and then Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton. See, that's a tough turnaround, too, guys.
You're going cross-country, 10 o'clock starts, you know, your body clock, all of that. Like, it's... And Seattle, listen, they're not a pushover. You're going to have to play hard against these teams. Nothing's a gimme right now. Teams are thinking of the Leafs, though, Noodles. They're like, this is perfect. Let's play them. The Leafs are eight points out of a playoff spot.
It's just their new reality until they decide to change it if they can change it. So Chris Prong in a few moments. Is Bill Belichick not making the Hall of Fame thing? I find it somewhat humorous because now everyone's trying to figure out who didn't vote for him. And who led the charge against him? Some guy said he didn't remember. They should get exposed, though.
Those people should get exposed. And you know what? If you vote, what's your reasoning? What was that guy's comment, Hayes? He was like, I thought I voted for him. And then he was like, hang on a sec, did I?
Yeah.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of the Leafs' playoff position this season?
But I was talking about stuff like this where you get voters... They go on some crusade, and they make it more about themselves than the actual inductees. That's the thing, though. They should look at the voters and make sure that they aren't at least, you know, everyone's biased. But you know what? Make it transparent so that you have to be accountable for your actions.
You know, they do it like I vote for Hart and all of that. My votes are right there. You can see them. And you can agree or disagree.
Chapter 3: What are Chris Pronger's thoughts on the Maple Leafs' current roster?
That's the difference. But at least I put time and thoughtfulness into it, and it's not a vindictive situation. This sounds like it's vindictive for people that are scorned because they've had a personal experience with Belichick and they didn't like him. And it's like, I don't like the guy, so to hell with him. Instead of looking at what the guy did as a coach, a Hall of Fame coach,
But maybe that's just it, Jamie. Maybe they got Spygate in their head. They got Deflategate in their head, and they're like, maybe this guy cheated the whole time, and what has he done that we don't know about? Maybe that just seeped into their head. Then you ask the question, does Robert Kraft have to own up to that as the owner? Does Tom Brady have to? Where does it stop? Is it just Belichick?
Possibly, he's the coach. That was his operation. There's no way Robert Kraft was involved to that level. I don't believe it. But by association, if you're the owner, a lot of times you've got to take the fall. Like, I should have known or I should have been aware of what was going on.
And I don't get that impression that it's going to be held against Kraft, and I certainly don't get the impression it will be held against Tom Brady. But I don't know. I mean ā I find it just suspicious. He's arguably the greatest coach of all time, and you couldn't find enough votes to put him in the hall? I think it's ridiculous. I'm sorry. I just think it's ridiculous.
I agree with the conspiracy. I don't believe this was 11 individuals saying, I personally just can't do it. I think there was... Someone was talking and someone got whipping up votes. Somebody told somebody you're not putting that bastard in and I don't care what you do. I'd love to get a candid response from Belichick. Like if he's just freaking out, snapping.
We actually have a guy right now with us who was a first ballot Hall of Famer. Yes. You think Prongs would have lost it if he didn't get in on the first ballot? There was probably some people chittering and chattering. That guy broke too many people's arms, and I didn't like that, so maybe I'm not voting. He was suspended nine times, I think, too. Disgusting. Well, I didn't mind it.
It was my teammates, so I had no problem with it. Here he is, Hall of Famer. Chris Pronger. Prongs, how would you have responded to not getting into the hall on the first ballot?
You know what? I feel just the same as Bill Belichick would. At that stage, it's out of your control, but from what I've been reading, there's been a lot of... Deflategate and cheating and all the things that have kind of been brought up from the past. And I don't know if that played a factor in the conversation or if it was just...
They don't like the guy harboring a grudge or what have you, but you certainly look at his resume and go, well, that's a first ballot Hall of Fame coach.

Chapter 4: What are the reasons behind the recent criticism of Bill Belichick?
I just think, A, I think they're poorly constructed. They... Frankly, they're not that talented. They're not the high-flying Maple Leafs of two, three, four years ago. They're now a meat and potatoes. They've got to do everything right to win hockey games. And I don't think a few of those players want to play that way. They like the old style.
And where they could run and gun and maybe win a game 6-5. But... in their current iteration, if they don't have things go their way, if they don't play well defensively, if their goalies don't make key saves at the right times, they struggle.
So the follow-up to that is, if someone asked for your professional opinion on how to proceed moving forward, what would your answer be?
In my opinion, I would take it to the studs. In my opinion. If you're going to rebuild, I mean, with everything that has gone on there, let's take the whole landscape and everything that's gone on, let's just use the last calendar year. The whole Marner thing, the Nylander thing, all of everything that's kind of gone on, and then what they've put into place after Marner.
They've got some good pieces. I'm not saying they don't have some good pieces, but they're missing a lot. And how do they fit that in under the cap? How do they get those assets? They need to rebuild with assets. I don't think they need to get rid of every single player, but one of those big guys has to go, in my opinion. It's not working.
and if you trade one of those big guys, you should be able to get enough assets back and then move out a couple guys off the back end, get a fresh start for whether it's Morgan Riley. That's clearly not working now, and he's been there a long time. That's a long time to play in Toronto, 13 years.
Yeah, a long time.
It's a lot of scrutiny. And he's been there through the super lean years and now through the rise and the peaking. And they didn't get it done. And now, listen, I got traded four times. O-Dog's been traded. Noodle's been moved around. Sometimes change is good. Playing in the same place is not for everybody. I think personally for my career...
Having moved as many times as I did, it made me a better player. It made me appreciate the good times. It allowed me to utilize the failures and the tough moments so that when I was put in that situation in a new market, I could look back and rely on the scar tissue and the... the grit that I needed to form to get through difficult times.

Chapter 5: How does Chris Pronger suggest the Maple Leafs should rebuild?
And it was a great, great piece because he's just a ā that's who he is. He parties. He has a good time. You know, that's kind of how he operates. Yeah. All right. One more on the fly here, Noodles, for you. All right. Noodles, you're playing the role of your new shirt. What is your level of concern you will be taken out of the rotation moving forward? Hang on. You've got to do this first.
Just play it. Just play it. You can never... Never ask me to stop drinking. I'm wearing this in San Francisco next week, one week from now. Holy shit. You guys will see it in person. You're bringing that thing. Just tell me one thing. Tell me it's like Versace. Is it Versace? It's quite nice. It's quite expensive. I think it's going to be beautiful in person.
When you see it in person, you'll go, it looks a lot different than what you're seeing. I don't know why. It looks good in person. I walked up, and I got a compliment right away. I love it. She was like, love the shirt. I said, thank you very much. Sending vibes out of the house. What if we walk into the building in San Fran and a guy just squares up and he goes, let's go.
And just hammers you right in the pills. People are saying it's a priest outfit. If you look at it, it's a sweater with a tie built into it. It's pretty cool. I love it. It's actually very nice. I support it. First day in San Fran, it's coming out. Wednesday, I will be wearing it. It's father noodles. Sensei Noodles father. I will be wearing it next Wednesday.
If you guys want me to bring it to San Fran, I will bring it to San Fran.
I love it.
Radio romance. If not, I will take it immediately out of the rotation. No way. You guys know I wear dark colors. That's it. I ordered a bunch of new shirts and all that. They arrived. I was like, this one I really enjoyed. I threw it on. Felt very comfortable. Got a haircut yesterday. And I'm like, you know what? Maybe it doesn't fall. Maybe it just didn't land. Steph might not let you leave.
She might say, I can't let you out of the house. I doubt it. Can't keep my hands off this cat. I love it. The minute she walks in, she's going to go, what the hell did you wear on TV today? You know what she's going to say. You never know. The nanny loved it, so who knows? It's first day Wednesday at Super Bowl next week. I promise you I'll wear it next week. I'm bringing it on the trip.
We're all going black on black on black first day at the Super Bowl. Very, very nice. Yeah. I was very comfortable until I started drawing negative attention. It wasn't from me. Me neither. I don't know.
