Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?

0.031 - 15.599 Steve Dangle

Check out the worldwide eSIM service sailing. Whoa. What is that, you might ask? It's a mouthful. If you're traveling, it's the best. It's actually the coolest thing ever. It's basically avoiding all your roaming fees from your local provider, which sucks.

17.243 - 18.245 Steve Dangle

We don't like that.

0

18.285 - 19.287 Adam Wylde

Don't want those.

0

19.307 - 37.885 Steve Dangle

We don't want those at all. And your local provider has a vested interest in charging you through the nose. I don't know why that's even a thing. Why do people say through the nose? But it's through the nose. It's out the nose also. It is out the everything. And sailing kind of prevents that from happening where you buy an e-sim. Now, you might be familiar with...

37.865 - 58.147 Steve Dangle

flying into an airport and getting to those sketchy SIM counters. And they're like, here's a card. You can put this in your iPhone and nothing bad will happen. eSIMs are great because you don't have to put anything in your phone and unprotected. And you've got Nord security backing this fully encrypted wherever you go all around the world. You can get a daily plan. Jesse used it last summer.

58.207 - 83.885 Steve Dangle

87.551 - 88.493 Unknown

S-D-E.

91.156 - 95.681 Jesse Blake

with your host, Steve Dangle, Adam Wylde, and Jesse Blake.

Chapter 2: How do they assess Mitch Marner's performance?

881.581 - 895.443 Adam Wylde

Again, clean conscience trying to think of something I should have said or done differently. Oh, Marner was never surrounded with the... I'm going to lose my mind, actually.

0

895.543 - 907.302 Steve Dangle

You were saying that in 2021 after the Canadian series. Yes. Because we can't do this with this amount of money tied up in these four players. And you know what everyone did for four years? They said you were too negative. They said...

0

908.328 - 927.771 Adam Wylde

No, they didn't. Yes, they did. Well, yes, they fucking did. Yes, they did. And then I was too negative in 2022. It was too negative in 2023. I was too negative in 2024. I was too negative in 2025. And now he wins in 2026 in a different situation, which I asked him to move on to for several years. And now I'm stupid.

0

929.573 - 932.217 Steve Dangle

I think you're fighting a battle you're never going to win, man.

0

932.277 - 945.736 Adam Wylde

No, I know that. Listen, everyone's taking their shots at the Leafs, even though they were the ones telling us for years and years, you guys are a bunch of chokers. And now they're going, see? Told you Marner's not a choker.

946.718 - 947.139 Steve Dangle

Yeah.

947.159 - 967.654 Adam Wylde

All right. It's the internet. Get your yucks in. I'm right. You're wrong. You're coping with it through jokes, and that's fine. As for the Leafs fans who are like, I always knew. Uh, well, way to keep it a secret. I don't, I don't know what to, maybe you could have suggested something that might've worked while he was here.

968.735 - 976.984 Adam Wylde

Um, uh, they were too top heavy, a lot like, well, not really the avalanche. I think that was just horrible luck to be honest.

977.004 - 977.485 Steve Dangle

Yeah. Injury.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Colorado's injuries?

1288.019 - 1316.217 Steve Dangle

We'll have a look at a Tacoma. the other thing that I do want to talk about. And this one I will sound salty about because if you've listened to this show long enough, you know that I have always had reservations about John Tortorella. And one of the things that I've always found extraordinarily grating about him is the lengths people will go to to tell you

0

1316.197 - 1330.66 Steve Dangle

Well, actually, he's a great guy and he's changed every job he gets into after Tampa. It's while John's calmed down a little bit. John's calmed down. He's going to be better with the media. He's going to be better with the fans. He's going to be this and this and this and this. And look at this. He's got dogs and he likes them.

0

1331.261 - 1334.226 Steve Dangle

I'm like, man, I don't know a single person who doesn't like dogs, but OK.

0

1334.626 - 1345.365 Adam Wylde

John's the kind of person to tell you about all his exes and how crazy they are. So, so, you know, he comes in. No, it's not the common denominator. They're all crazy.

0

1345.706 - 1362.211 Steve Dangle

And he comes in and he does the whole, well, like Bruce Cassidy's a great coach and I'm not going to change anything. Bruce did immediately changes everything Bruce did. And by the way, it worked. Yeah, it's worked. It's been great. Yeah. Especially the penalty kills. Unbelievable. And deserves credit for that.

1362.471 - 1380.73 Steve Dangle

But where I get annoyed is obviously there's the media thing, which is he is happy to accept every media job thrown at him. Yeah. But then immediately when he works in the NHL, he's like, I'm not sitting at your fucking dinner table, you losers. Right. And then, you know, gets his ass fined and is, you know...

1380.71 - 1397.239 Steve Dangle

you know, huffing and puffing on the microphone during the press conference where Kelly McCrimmon apologizes, which is a sorry that you feel that way apology, by the way. And then he immediately, as soon as he stuffs Jared Bednar into a locker, That's what happened. Wow.

1397.86 - 1412.453 Steve Dangle

And I know Bednar didn't have all the chips in his favor, but that's sort of what you have to do in the playoffs is you find a way to win despite it. And then he basically says to the media, and we've got the clip. I don't even know if it needs it, but he stands up and he goes, get off Bedsy's ass.

1413.555 - 1415.336 Adam Wylde

Could have said it into the mic, John.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of Montreal's recent performance?

3612.626 - 3614.068 Steve Dangle

Oh, absolutely. He's over that.

0

3614.048 - 3617.012 Jesse Blake

You know, this is a 40 shot a game Carolina Hurricanes.

0

3617.092 - 3618.253 Steve Dangle

That's easiest over ever.

0

3618.454 - 3624.021 Jesse Blake

That is very chalk in terms of just like how things have been going. But I think it probably sticks to how things have been going.

0

3624.041 - 3628.426 Adam Wylde

Last game was 37-12 before the goal went in.

3628.446 - 3631.57 Jesse Blake

I think we see that again. Something similar again. Yeah, absolutely.

3631.61 - 3633.913 Adam Wylde

Now listen, I do think the Habs are going to get more shots.

0

3653.959 - 3669.643 Steve Dangle

I know when people listen to this, when the game is this that night, sometimes we do a shorter segment on the team because it will be outdated by the time a lot of people hear it. But I want to talk about how Montreal gets back in this series because let's just call it what it is. I know Habs fans are riding a high and they're thrilled and everything.

0

3670.024 - 3676.955 Steve Dangle

And they're going to come at me and go, how could you doubt us? The thing is, is that I've seen the way they've played over the last two games.

0

3677.175 - 3691.51 Adam Wylde

They're doubting them. I had a conversation with someone the other day where they were like, well, you know, it was, it was fun. Past tense. Oh yeah. Ooh. Because they're, so you want to talk about house money.

0

Chapter 6: What does the future hold for Malkin with the Penguins?

3691.71 - 3713.83 Adam Wylde

We're here. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. We're here. And I know that because some Habs fans are already talking about it. Like they've lost because I think what's so surprising about this Habs run, like here's what you like. Last year, they make the playoffs. They don't do anything in them, really. They lose. But everyone's like, you know what? They made the playoffs. They got some experience.

0

3713.89 - 3716.374 Adam Wylde

Great. They go into that series against Tampa.

0

Chapter 7: How will the Oilers adapt their strategy with a new coach?

3716.394 - 3742.792 Adam Wylde

And what did I say? I go, well, I know it's Tampa and you probably bet on Tampa. You don't want to become the Leafs. You don't want to become the young team that makes it and they lose the series they were supposed to lose to Washington and And then the next year you lose again. And it's kind of this arrested development. You don't want that to happen. And then you beat Tampa.

0

3742.812 - 3766.23 Adam Wylde

Then you play Buffalo and you beat them. And all of a sudden you want it all. And after three games, it's fairly obvious that that's going to be really difficult. That's going to be really hard. And they're talking about it past tense because I think what's so surprising about this run is Is this is not close to the best Montreal Canadiens team we're going to see over the next.

0

3769.096 - 3775.323 Adam Wylde

I was going to say five years. How about next 365 days? Yeah. They're going to be better at the beginning of next season.

0

3775.403 - 3776.464 Jesse Blake

Yep. Oh, yeah.

0

3776.484 - 3797.166 Adam Wylde

Yep. They've learned a lot. They've learned a lot. Reinbacher is not a full-time NHL player yet. Michael Hage. Hage, you mean? Hage, Borghini, frigging Pasta Tortellini hasn't. I still can't believe that shit. I still cannot believe that shit. That was so many press conferences ago, and I can't believe you said that shit.

3797.306 - 3808.35 Adam Wylde

Anyway, you know, think of where they end up in the standings if they don't get several months of unplayable Sam Montembeau.

3808.33 - 3809.773 Steve Dangle

Yeah, good point.

3809.933 - 3814.923 Adam Wylde

Unplayable. Yeah. Sam Montembeau. And you're going to replace him with Fowler, who's another kid.

3815.444 - 3818.87 Steve Dangle

And so Montembeau's contract comes off the books. Laine's contract comes off the books.
