one of my favorite 'short but sweet' rants from Steve is during the lockdown era of podcasts where he begins with "Steve! you look like you need a vacation!" and then just explodes into this tirade of having no outlet while Adam and Jesse are cracking up.
@@SteveDangle that time period is a blindspot for a lot of us I reckon However! if you're curious, the episode title is 'friendzy' and the exact time stamp is 2:03:30 😉
I absolutely love listening to Adam go down the rabbit hole and paint such a detailed picture of what has happened behind the scenes with Rogers, Bell and MLSE.
My favorite Steve rant when the leafs almost blew a 7-2 lead to the Red Wings, ended up winning 10-7, at one point he says "buckle up leafs fans, here's another one you're never gonna live it down, add it to the list" 😂 when Campbell gets pulled and the red wings score again and he's screaming "Jack doesn't even have his hat on" !!! Pure gold 😅
Best rants, the Me Game rant talking about publicly funded arenas, the old Levi Maestros rant from like 2016, the Minnesota Wild rant about the Suter+Parise contracts and the lockout they caused
Max Pacioretty with the leaf is kinda wild...Honestly as a habs fan, i wish he would play an entire season and put his injuries behind him. He always was a good shooter. You never know !
Should probably quote the Globe article that you’re referencing. MLSE is a private equity/content play, no owner has ever taken profits from it on an annual basis. BTW, Ed doesn’t go to any Leaf games, he’s not a fan. Teachers’ were at all the games for nearly 20 years.
Assuming Nylander repeats a career season at a new position with new responsibilities is setting him up to fail. The media and fans better be ready for a production drop while he improves his overall game on the job.
I actually had to pull over and watch Jesse demonstrate the pitches because I don’t know anything about baseball and I was legitimately interested haha
Hey I'm not always the biggest Adam Wylde fan but days like today are the ones where I appreciate him the most Seeing the news I wasn't sure how to feel about the Rogers news, looked like it was supposed to be bad. The breakdown and the explanation were extremely thorough and I understand a lot more than I did before. But my favourite part was probably the last: we don't know what this means yet Thank you Adam!
***** Timmins... Ontario, nice Steve! I'm from Timmins, Ontario. You know who else is from Timmins? Another Steve; Ex Leaf great #11 STEVE SULLIVAN! And he is back!
That David Ayres rant is what hooked me as a fan of LFR. Since then I’ve been watching just about every one. Got me to be a leaf fan (thanks for that btw)
To be real with you guys, this is a perfect first episode for anyone who is new to the SDPN to listen to. You clearly communicate the vibe of the show in the first fifteen minutes. (friends who love hockey/the Leafs and have so much fun doing it)
Marner wasn't a C in junior. He played wing for London alongside Dvorak and Domi. His D+1 they tried him at center for a bit during the season but ultimately stuck on the wing. Hes never played a full season at C in juniors. Willy played C all the time when he was younger and even in the AHL he was playing C.
If I need a pick me up I go right to “The Toronto Maple Leafs list a National Hockey League game to a 42 year old Zamboni driver who works for the teeeeeeaaaam!!!!” 😂😂😂😂😂
5:22 Man guys dont change. One of the reasons I like this podcast is its clear its a bunch of bros hanging out. A lot of podcasts have a very professional vibe to them which is good but also it feels like they say they're friends but u dont know if they are where here its clear they're a bunch of guys who do geniunely like each other.
I really enjoyed Adam's segment on the dynamics of MLSE. Knowing that Adam has worked for both BCE and Rogers, it's interesting to learn about some of things he's heard. It may not be as thrilling as breaking down a trade but the drama at the board level does seem like a very plausible explanation for why the Leafs and Raptors seem extremely resistant to anything but surface level changes.
That second line would get eaten alive, all three of Robertson Tavares and McMann would be better fits on the second line. I'd swap Domi and Marner try Marner at centre over Nylander and give Robertson a legit shot in the top 6.
The first rant that came to my mind was the Minnesota/Chuck Fletcher rant where Steve realised that he hated the Wild because of the Suter/Parise contracts and the Lock-out that followed.
I remember watching that Ayer's game live on tv as an Oilers fan when the Leaf's employee went into the net for the other team and thinking how it was such BS that could happen, and then of course enjoyed how it played out and ended up losing it. It was good however that because of this, they looked at the EBUG situation and made rules and improvements on how that would be handled going forward.
The fact that they've never even tried it is crazy, yet they keep trying Nylander when we've seen it doesn't work. But they love repeating things that they know don't work so 🤷♂️
Hopefully the reports of their weights are fairly accurate. If so I'm excited. Liljigren went up by like 11 lbs he's now at 201. Matthew knies went up by 10 lbs up to 227. Bobby mcmann and Simon Benoit also put on a fairly good amount of weight too.
I like the rant where the charge to defend my pap at all costs was first proclaimed...but that's just my selfish favourite😂 but I legit thought of the game 7 Mon/Tor series rant when the question was first asked, so that one!
It is quite similar, but MLSE (then MLGL was a public company from 1931-1998), and Fenway group owns international properties whereas MLSE holds Canadian-based teams only.
Looking at the lay of the land. Brock Nelson in the last year of his deal. $ committed to Horvat and Barzal.... Jarnkrok, Kampf, and Lilly for Nelson seems to make some sense for both clubs
Just wait until they find out this is the SECOND version of the Capit-ale that’s been made by Devils Backbone. The first version came out in 2019, was a regular IPA, and was 7%
I think the idea is he has elite talent and you can teach someone with elite talent to play a different position in hockey. They tried him on D for a bit so we know he can learn.
I enjoyed it too, although in fairness here in the UK beer cans are usually 440ml or 500ml even though beer on tap is in pints. Pint cans aren’t rare here but they’re clearly a marketing gimmick to catch the eye.
For the height being a centerman, it's mostly for reach to be able to tangle your stick into lanes. What makes those smallers ok is the height to weight ratio. You guys are right they are elite athletes, so an extra 20 lbs is 20 lbs of muscle. But someone being 6 ft, and 180 lbs is different than 5 ft 10 and being 180 lbs. Point, I would imagine, is as hard to knock over as someone who is 6 ft and 200 lbs. They are denser and their center of mass is already lower. I would imagine the leafs would like to see marner at around 195 to even think of playing at center. It would also depends on where that extra 15 lbs is put on, If marner can put those fifteen extra lbs of muscle on in the lower body, it would lower his center of mass and make him hard to nudge off.
It would make more sense to play the guy who's more skilled and defensively responsible at center. Marner should be the guy. They've already tried it with Willy, and it failed miserably
Adam I love the pod been a fan for years, but to say that kadri who cross-checked jake debrusked head into the boards got "unfairly" suspended is literally just rooting for players to kill each other. Take the Boston hate/ Leafs love glasses off and root for that type of hit being taken out of the game.
Korpisalo's run with the LA was 11 good regular season games followed by getting destroyed in the playoffs by Edmonton in the 1st round with one good year in multiple season in CLB. Otherwise he has been a below average goalie the rest of his career. I think he will do better in Boston, but the whole did great in LA thing never happened.
Jesse saying Korpisalo had "one bad year" is officially the high bar to clear for worst take of the bew season. Dude has been awful for most of his NHL career
first! haha i wish my mum still loved me. Also, this Rogers accusation is really bad as neither the Jays or Leafs believe in accountability. The Dark Days are so BACK. (They're probably already here tbh)
remember JTs 3rd line stint last year? he was much more effective as a skilled 3rd line cycle type player with mcmann with less difficult matchups. hes just not productive enough 5v5 to be a 2nd line center anymore imo. and i think his defensive play is pretty overrated, the past few years hes been a turnover machine.
one of my favorite 'short but sweet' rants from Steve is during the lockdown era of podcasts where he begins with "Steve! you look like you need a vacation!" and then just explodes into this tirade of having no outlet while Adam and Jesse are cracking up.
I vaguely remember that lol I had a wild memory but 2020ish is a blind spot
@@SteveDangle that time period is a blindspot for a lot of us I reckon
However! if you're curious, the episode title is 'friendzy' and the exact time stamp is 2:03:30 😉
"I don't believe Bell has much debt," Oh Adam, my sweet summer child, Bell has nothing but debt lmfao.
Zamboni driver is by far my absolute favorite Steve’s rant… living rent free in my mind for ever 🎉🎉😂😂
I absolutely love listening to Adam go down the rabbit hole and paint such a detailed picture of what has happened behind the scenes with Rogers, Bell and MLSE.
Yeah this might be a new top Adam rant
My favorite Steve rant when the leafs almost blew a 7-2 lead to the Red Wings, ended up winning 10-7, at one point he says "buckle up leafs fans, here's another one you're never gonna live it down, add it to the list" 😂 when Campbell gets pulled and the red wings score again and he's screaming "Jack doesn't even have his hat on" !!! Pure gold 😅
Adam executive talk is always a W
If the leafs win the cup, the podcast after that would be the most legendary video on this platform
It would most likely be the longest one too. The first hour would just be celebrating 😂
Leafs win the cup, I'd be surprised if the whole city doesn't shut down for a whole day 😂😅
That's one for the April Jar😅
Safe to say you won’t be seeing that anytime soon…and by soon I mean in the next couple of decades.
As if that will ever happen
ROTFLMAO
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Best rants, the Me Game rant talking about publicly funded arenas, the old Levi Maestros rant from like 2016, the Minnesota Wild rant about the Suter+Parise contracts and the lockout they caused
Steve, the reason why I'm a hockey fan is because of your Ayres video. Thank you for your great rants!
Mady & Gentleman,
Great show as always.
Adam's Rogers//Bell take is much watch - Listen.
I will be sharing this link.
Thanks again,
MK
Max Pacioretty with the leaf is kinda wild...Honestly as a habs fan, i wish he would play an entire season and put his injuries behind him. He always was a good shooter. You never know !
It ain't that wild. A past his prime, injury ridden 35yo is exactly what the Leafs needed to lift a cup. Plan the parade
Gotta say, as a Habs fan, thinking that Patches was ever fast is a wild thing to say
Im sure its Adam Wylde who said it. Not because of the pun but because he never watch hockey.
faster than JVR, and faster than Tavares. Come on, you know what I meant.
@@marc-antoinemarcoux697 I watch you watching hockey.
I saw that ;)
@@marc-antoinemarcoux697 He was saying it in comparison to jvr no?
1:34:59 my personal favorite is the famous “f-you” meme rant about billionaires not paying for stadiums.
The best rant of Steve imo is the rocky wirtz one. Because u could feel the passion and it was real. David Ayers is also a classic.
The Ayers thing is less of a rant and more of a physcotic break.
Should probably quote the Globe article that you’re referencing.

Zamboni driver was my introduction to the magic of Steve Dangle.
Smart insider man is probably the best rant, but there’s so many good ones to choose from!
Best rant...rumor break. " who is rumor break ? SOME DUDE "

he was on fire on the wing there im assuming that's why they bailed on the center position

When Mikael and Markus Granlund played in the same team, their jerseys had GRANLUND MI and GRANLUND MA on the back
Jesse not remembering the “seam” of the baseball after seconds earlier saying ‘four-seamer’ makes me believe he is human.
If I had to guess it'll be
Knies-matthews-marner
Domi-nylander-jarnkrok
Robertson-Tavares-mcmann
Holmberg-kampf-dewar/reeves
That second line would get eaten alive, all three of Robertson Tavares and McMann would be better fits on the second line. I'd swap Domi and Marner try Marner at centre over Nylander and give Robertson a legit shot in the top 6.
Jesse's question "why haven't we tried Mitch at center?" kinda blew me away. Great question!
If you only knew how bad the dysfunction is in Rogers.
The first rant that came to my mind was the Minnesota/Chuck Fletcher rant where Steve realised that he hated the Wild because of the Suter/Parise contracts and the Lock-out that followed.

Nylander at center is delusional at this point.
Where will the preseason game be streamed? SDPN channel?
I think they should try Marner as a center.
I think Marner should only get about 7M...leafs will NEVER go anywhere if they give championship money before winning the championship
@@dannymoxley-towns8541 lol yeah right, that's not how it works.
@@vipeholmskolan6052 yeah well 🤣🤣🤣 "hopefully next year"
He lacks the strength required to be an effective faceoff taker imo
The fact that they've never even tried it is crazy, yet they keep trying Nylander when we've seen it doesn't work. But they love repeating things that they know don't work so 🤷♂️
Don't worry Adam, Jesse killed your "take off the mask in a safe space "intro with his dressing room brilliancy
I think the bigger factor of effecting Minten's world juniors is that he's 20
Hopefully the reports of their weights are fairly accurate. If so I'm excited. Liljigren went up by like 11 lbs he's now at 201. Matthew knies went up by 10 lbs up to 227. Bobby mcmann and Simon Benoit also put on a fairly good amount of weight too.
Are they better hockey players though.
The fans are excited with Eugene was iconic
Guys, we need to see Jessie throw all his pitches with steve and adam with GoPros, cool topic for the VIP!
Fraser Minten cannot make the Canadian would junior team, due to him being twenty years old.
Dump and don't chase.😂
I like the rant where the charge to defend my pap at all costs was first proclaimed...but that's just my selfish favourite😂 but I legit thought of the game 7 Mon/Tor series rant when the question was first asked, so that one!
Steve Stevens is going to be my next Chel guy. 🎉🎉
Does Jesse have a perm bowl cut!??? 🤣
So you think Carolina Hurricanes 1C Sebastian Aho is too small? Exactly the same weight and height as Mitch Marner!
Is Nylander at center the Spirit Bomb? Nuclear option that never ever works 😂
From not living in Canada it's interesting to see what's happening in Toronto....kind of like the Fenway group in Boston??
It is quite similar, but MLSE (then MLGL was a public company from 1931-1998), and Fenway group owns international properties whereas MLSE holds Canadian-based teams only.
Are we getting season 2 or Harpen&Basu on SDPN?
Looking at the lay of the land. Brock Nelson in the last year of his deal. $ committed to Horvat and Barzal.... Jarnkrok, Kampf, and Lilly for Nelson seems to make some sense for both clubs
Steve's face during the intro music sent me
How did I know more training camp first names than Steve did?????
Just wait until they find out this is the SECOND version of the Capit-ale that’s been made by Devils Backbone. The first version came out in 2019, was a regular IPA, and was 7%
Marner to Pittsburgh July 1.
Domi-Matthews-Knies
Roby-JT-Marner
McMan-Nylander-Jarnkrok
Adam probably thinks of Makar as an American because he played a bit of NCAA hockey before going pro, which is more of a Yank thing usually.
8:52 -Sam….damn….McMann😆
Marner hasn’t been tried at Centre because he’s not a Centre.
He never even played centre for London. He’s not a Centre.
I think the idea is he has elite talent and you can teach someone with elite talent to play a different position in hockey. They tried him on D for a bit so we know he can learn.
Still amused at how amazed they are at 568ml cans (aka a British pint)
I enjoyed it too, although in fairness here in the UK beer cans are usually 440ml or 500ml even though beer on tap is in pints. Pint cans aren’t rare here but they’re clearly a marketing gimmick to catch the eye.
The Hurricanes also have there own beer.
Oop, I was at the Ayers game and it was not a pleasant environment
Marner was never tried at centre because he constantly gets stuffed into lockers by everyone.
No evidence of that if he hasn't been tried there. Even more stuffed on the wall.
Mitch is not a center. Never will be. And Adam was wrong, Marner was not a center in junior, Dvorak was marners center in London.
Lmao Adam……… sway has been at warrior all summer……….. tf do you mean they haven’t spoken all summer 😂😂😂😂
I like that Jesse referred to marner as muscle mass, but y is his nickname not M&M???
I'm disappointed it's not Max(plural) on his wing, that'd be a fun line
I cant imagine the title is in reference to the show created by Ed Gould.
WORKS FOR THE TEAM
Hey there, Caps employee here. Get in touch w me I’ll send you guys some Capit-Ale!
For the height being a centerman, it's mostly for reach to be able to tangle your stick into lanes. What makes those smallers ok is the height to weight ratio.

I'd be surprised if Ovechkin doesn't end up buying shares in Capit-Ale. He would save money just on free beers alone. Lmao!
It would make more sense to play the guy who's more skilled and defensively responsible at center. Marner should be the guy. They've already tried it with Willy, and it failed miserably
Adam I love the pod been a fan for years, but to say that kadri who cross-checked jake debrusked head into the boards got "unfairly" suspended is literally just rooting for players to kill each other. Take the Boston hate/ Leafs love glasses off and root for that type of hit being taken out of the game.
6:02 they should do this segment for every team
Why is Marner talked about on D before at C wtf 😂🤦♂️
Sweeney will say it how it is when he gets to that point the NB in him 😂👌
These guys got all hyped and excited over an IPA… Man… summer episode I guess
Korpisalo's run with the LA was 11 good regular season games followed by getting destroyed in the playoffs by Edmonton in the 1st round with one good year in multiple season in CLB. Otherwise he has been a below average goalie the rest of his career. I think he will do better in Boston, but the whole did great in LA thing never happened.
Bruce McNall and John Candy owned the cfl team
McNall was the majority owner, and Gretzky & Candy were minority owners.
Brayden point from calgary too
Jesse saying Korpisalo had "one bad year" is officially the high bar to clear for worst take of the bew season. Dude has been awful for most of his NHL career
Bar none, the greatest rant was the David Ayers win over the Leafs.
Just a guess but maybe Adam thinking makar is U.S born is because it sounds like a Boston person saying my car.
Marner at Centre. That is too logical for a team that can get past first round.
Bell’s tech is some of the worst consumer electronics (PVR) I’ve ever owned.
Toronto sports fans will settle for nothing less than the big 4.
Meaning give them an NFL team.
They don’t want CFL
i don’t know what yall are talking about Pacioretty was never a very fast player even before his injuries 😐
Love listening to these podcasts but dam this one was boring asf to listen to up until 1:29:00. Shoulda led with that like Jesse said
Far better podcast then when they go off about the bachelor or bachelorette BS atleast they are talking about sports here

With relief pitchers look at the ERA+ number. Thars the most important for them.
