What are Sid Seixeiro's insights on the World Cup and Stanley Cup Final?

Dan Le Batard 0:00
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stukas Podcast. This segment is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. And guys, I have opened up my trusty DraftKings Sports app because it is now available in all 50 states. And I got a pick for you. A U.S. men's national team pick. They are kicking off their World Cup experience tonight at Los Angeles Stadium against Paraguay. And the bet that I like in this match, I think it's going to be tough, and I think we're going to get a little nervy, at least in the early going. I got both teams to score. The market price on that on the DraftKings Sports app that I got is plus 113. I locked that in. Both teams to score, yes. And now I am looking at the screen, and we got a friend of the program, the perfect guest, because we got the Stanley Cup going on, we got the World Cup going on, and it's a big day for Canada.
Dan Le Batard 0:58
Sid Cicero joins the program. How's it going, Sid?
Let's go, Sid.
Sid Seixeiro 1:02
Gentlemen, gentlemen, too kind, as always. What a day. What a weekend we got in store here. This is going to be something else.
Dan Le Batard 1:10
What is your experience? Because you're based out of Toronto, Sid. Sid Cicero, so you can catch YouTube channel, wherever you get your podcasts also. Now, the Knights are a game away from being eliminated, but how are you handling the whole Mitch Marner thing?
Sid Seixeiro 1:22
Better if he loses, but I'll be honest with you like that's gonna be a tough one for Toronto That's gonna be a tough one. Now. This series has been so messed up. I'm not willing to throw away the Knights chances Going into Sunday night But there is There's a familiarity now with it with the Knights that we've seen in Toronto a lot in the Mitch Marner years And it's one question that was always asked at the end of a series Here's the question What's up with the power play? Mitch Marner power plays go quiet a little the longer the series goes. That has kind of been the deciding factor, goaltending aside. The power play for the Golden Knights has been awful, and it's not getting any better. So I do find it interesting how Mitch Marner, who nearly had a four-goal night last Saturday in Game 3,
Sid Seixeiro 2:12
was talked about as the surefire MVP of the entire postseason. And a couple of nights later, it's like, well, it has to be Jordan Stahl. It's been one of the better cup finals I've seen in a long time. And honestly, within the hockey world, what this will mean in terms of the greater analytics discussion is going to be staggering. Because we've been laughing at Eric Tolsky and Carolina for about eight years. This will flip the script on all of that. With that said, it's been fascinating, and as someone in Toronto watching Mitch Marner do that, it's been really fascinating.
Dan Le Batard 2:43
Dan isn't here today, but I'll ask you a point that Dan has made recently. You got Vegas and Carolina Before this year, the previous six Stanley Cups were represented by either Tampa Bay or Florida. Is Canada as enraged about that? The Sun Belt teams, the non-traditional market teams, are they enraged at a Stanley Cup final like this one?
Sid Seixeiro 3:10
No, we're kind of used to it at this point. Listen, I think the whole league shouldn't be enraged with Vegas because they've come in and just slapped everyone in the face for the last nine years and taught people how to do it properly, to help with the picks, to help with the prospects. We're going to bring in players that can help us now. No one has a right to be mad at Vegas. They've had more balls than anyone. In terms of like, and I don't want to make this room unhappy with me, but there is a feeling sometimes in Canada when you take the cup to the elbow room and there's like nine people there. That does make us feel a certain way. I don't mean that as a diss, a Miami shot. I'm just saying as self-conscious hockey folk,
Sid Seixeiro 3:49
that makes us feel a certain way.
Dan Le Batard 3:51
How do we feel about what Sid just said, guys? I mean, as somebody who got hammered at the Elbow Room the day after the last championship, I guarantee you there were dozens of people there, not nine. The most offensive one by far, whatever happened in South Beach, is not comparable to when Anaheim won it.
