Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Welcome to the Big Suey, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Levitard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it. And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face, and the habitual liar.

this episode is presented by smirnoff we do game days please drink responsibly the smirnoff company new york new york you can be very afraid and properly respectful of conor mcdavid and also have what i'm about to say be true as to why it is the defending champions might not fear what cometh this way even though i would fear what cometh this way not just with home ice but because the growth of this kind of transcendent talent sort of demands that he step up and win this to be the talent that I believe everyone hockey thinks he already is, just better than everybody. And what he's facing, though, is the following. It is a franchise that not only took out and beheaded Tampa and all that it was, but made Boston and New York go about doing a different kind of business.
Greg Cote 2:24
And now has Toronto's GM saying, we need to change our DNA because what we are isn't what they are. And so now you're slicing through the top of the toughest conference with the deepest team Paul Maurice has ever had. If Connor McDavid is to be the champion, I believe him to be, that his greatness demands, he will slay this giant. But it will be a giant he slays. They're every bit as good as each other, except they have the better player. But Florida's plenty happy with the best player they've got and the soldiers behind him. Because this thing is deeper than what beat him last year. But he's stronger than what he was last year.
Tim Kurkjian 3:05
No, I think Edmonton has the two better players. They have the two best players in the world. However, the Panthers have the better team. Now, the Achilles here in this situation is Florida giving up stretch passes. So if Conor McDavid or Leon Drysdale gets behind the Panthers defenseman, I mean, that's going to be a breakaway one-on-one situation against Bob, and that's not going to go over too well. It's not like it's the Maple Leafs or anything. This is Conor McDavid here.

Why is Connor McDavid considered the fastest in hockey?

Greg Cote 3:29
But how about the quote, though, from Toronto's GM, we have to change our DNA? It's obvious. But what you're leaving in your wake in Carolina and Toronto.
Billy 3:37
I don't think Carolina gets a message ever. Like, what are we leaving? Like, let's just run it back. Rod Brindamore always is like, we're this close. And I'm like, thank you. Thank you, Rod. I love how Carolina approaches everything. God bless the Carolina Hurricanes. Keep running it back. You guys are close.
Greg Cote 3:52
Amin had the proper tone with the Knicks when he says, they were very good. Why do we have to immediately change the architecture? Well, the why is Carolina and Toronto had some of the best teams they've ever had, and it wasn't good enough. They had teams good enough to hope that this was the year that

What are the challenges facing the Edmonton Oilers?

Greg Cote 4:10
And it was taken out by the defending champion in a way that's so overt that you have to change the way you're doing the entirety of business because they've passed you. We know how competitive these things are. So when it's these two teams, they just buzz sawed through the playoffs. I know that Toronto, I know that Toronto took them seven games, but the playoffs are generally pretty hard.
