He’s a good guy, very humble. So good to the fans, he takes the time to sign or meet a fan. He’s just a gentleman and good guy all around. Love this guy so much, he’s just so nice and humble
This is such an enlightening conversation. Sports needs more of this. North America needs more of this. I'm a Canadian living in France and I can relate to this so much. Love it, well done leafs and Mark.
When first meeting sandin & lilgren as rookies when you would say hi to them and ask for an autograph and try and chat about the recent game they were quite just nodded hi and that's it glad Timmy is comfortable now
Need more of this imo this is much better than a lot of the other stuff love seeing the players talk and just be friends the shorts just don’t cut it always got me wanting to see the rest and hardly ever posted glad we got another one of these.
Alot of people might not know who Mark Fraser is, but the guy was a unit for the leafs back in 2013-2014. Took a slapshot right off the forehead and kept going.
This was awesome and I'm now starved! Couple of take aways. Willy Nye seems like just an awesome dude. The smile on his face when Timmy said Willy was here to take care of him was special. Mo is thick AF Timmy isn't blonde... Holl, looks 16 yrs old, the money he saved on razors... And finally Mark Fraser. Old warrior, Respect
First off, love this series. So glad MLSE has employed Fraser. He's a true gem. This episode was great and very clever. Can only imagine the clowns who came to troll, only to discover it was about Swede's and not the groups they always seem to have issues with. Great conversation. Pls keep it up
love these but why can't we get another episode of The Blueprint that is longer than 2 minutes put together ? literally 28 minutes after I posted this they release a episode 2 trailer :) W
It’s ridiculous that only 2 full Blueprint episodes are released so far & season is almost over. What happened there? Something bts? It’s been 6 months. Lol. The first full blueprint video was a quality feature but by now there should be at least 4 episodes. No excuses. That’s a Fail.
I love the content you guys make. Hockey/non hockey. If you need any production staff to help get the Blueprints going again tell me where to apply LOL. The shorts are cool but the long forms were greeeeat.
Because hes a Swede in the NHL. Not tryna be funny lol many old school hockey fans think like that. It was a pretty big deal to see the league change by introducing European players. Not just swedes
This feels like one of those (from the North American players) "I didn't know you felt that way" (to the Europeans) "You never asked." Taking for granted why players from overseas might feel more comfortable communicating in their native language or hanging with each other, etc.
i go to Sweden every year and i can say their food is pretty good, and much healthier than the usual North American food. restaurant culture is much better, but that's true of most European countries.
In Sweden it is acually more important to be a good man than winning. Sometimes anyway. Be a good guy is winning. Hurting others to win aint winning. Swedish Society is pretty chill. More respect than i recived in otjer countries. Less hard to live and give. Maybe Willie is swedish?
3 defenseman and a forward that is always dumped on for not playing defense hockey. The 3 D seem to really like him,... Maybe the media is wrong yet again?
On a side note, Willy should not grow facial hair. He has such pretty skin and eyes, that a beard ruins his face. Also, he should definitely cut his hair short again, he would look so good 😊❤ Overall, he seems like such a sweet and welcoming guy!
The funniest part of this was calling Rielly's defending "exceptional." Let's just be honest here. He's an offense-only defenseman. His defending is atrocious.
surströmming is actually not something most Swedes eat, it's pretty local niche food from the Northeastern coast around Bottenhavet. I'm Swedish (and not young) and have eaten surströmming. It's as if say Newfoundland in Canada had a special food they eat there pretty much exclusively, and then you try to extrapolate it and say everyone in Canada eats it.
@@coolbeans8682 for some reason I wrote I have eaten surströmming, I see now, I most definitely have not. Swedes in general never ever come in contact with surströmming. If you're Swedish yourself you would know this.
yes everyone does it. it's actually considered very rude to remove your hat because it plays on insecurities. on a more serious note, I like Willy the player, but he looks 12-year old here. and I'm not even someone who's that strict with dinner etiquette and stuff.
I think you were going to have this type of conversation anyways but they chose to do it in a more comfortable/low pressure environemnt (over a meal) than around a table.
Can just see willie is a genuine guy and cares about people in general
He’s a good guy, very humble. So good to the fans, he takes the time to sign or meet a fan. He’s just a gentleman and good guy all around. Love this guy so much, he’s just so nice and humble
can we cancel all boring, repetitive media scrums and opt for more of this, it's not just far more entertaining but culturally enlightening
I like it.
This was also boring as hell
This was painfully boring
Let us all pray you never quit your day job 🙏
That's a fabulous idea. I love it
Mark's chats with players are always so unique and enlightening. I'd love to see more of these round table chats. ❤
Willy Styles sharing the love with friends.☺️☺️☺️
Really enjoyed this, Go Leafs Go!!
When I first saw the chef I thought it was Willy's mom. heh Amazing food! So cool to see the players in casual settings...even with cameras around.
Same!

and was treated badly by randy carlyle.
@@gorgeoushammer probably but atleast the guy gave men a real shot at playing the game, you dont see tough guys like that in the game anymore. Its sad
This was awesome and I'm now starved!
Couple of take aways.

Mo is thick AF
Timmy isn't blonde...
Holl, looks 16 yrs old, the money he saved on razors...
And finally Mark Fraser.
Old warrior,
Respect
Holl seems like the jokester. Good guy to have
Around
Who didn't tell Holl that the dress code required a zip up V-neck? 😂
I really like this series. Thank you for sharing this.
Nice job Mark & thanks to the guys for sharing. I enjoy this type of content.
hollsy seems like he's really good guy in the locker room, keeps everything light, always seems to be doing something to get a laugh out of the boys.
First off, love this series. So glad MLSE has employed Fraser. He's a true gem. This episode was great and very clever. Can only imagine the clowns who came to troll, only to discover it was about Swede's and not the groups they always seem to have issues with. Great conversation. Pls keep it up
I like that the Leafs do these 3 course meals. I enjoy them 😊
This was a really cool show. I'd love to see much more of this.
Love this series, this is so awesome and fascinating. Also will be going to Sweden for the first time this summer so this is making me excited!
love these but why can't we get another episode of The Blueprint that is longer than 2 minutes put together ? literally 28 minutes after I posted this they release a episode 2 trailer :) W
Coming 2024 lol
It’s ridiculous that only 2 full Blueprint episodes are released so far & season is almost over. What happened there? Something bts?
It’s been 6 months. Lol. The first full blueprint video was a quality feature but by now there should be at least 4 episodes. No excuses. That’s a Fail.
I enjoy seeing Mark in this role. I think he really moved the needle on diversity in the NHL.
Go cry about diversity in sports like football, basketball, and baseball
Willy actually looks like a great guy.
Man I would have loved to see Colton Orr out on the ice working with Willy on skills and puck handling 😂
I love the content you guys make. Hockey/non hockey. If you need any production staff to help get the Blueprints going again tell me where to apply LOL. The shorts are cool but the long forms were greeeeat.
Mo is just crushing those plates. Everyone is savoring and talking and Mo already has his knife and fork down lol
This was great! Thank you!💙
How could people hate willy
Cause ppl are gross
Because hes a Swede in the NHL. Not tryna be funny lol many old school hockey fans think like that. It was a pretty big deal to see the league change by introducing European players. Not just swedes
Love this. Keep em coming!
I love these videos, pretty cool stuff. And now I'm hungry lol
This is awesome.
This was awesome !!
I think even Liljegren's experience isn't typical for the average swede or European because his dad is from the states.
This is awesome!!!
appreciate this series and video !
Järns and Gus should be part of this.
(Holmer if he gets called up, too.)
11:34 In Europe it's 60m × 30m and in North America it's 61m × 26m
This is delightful, it looks so delicious
💙GO LEAFS GOOO!!!💙💙

This is all time especially when Hollsy said he was a skill guy lmao
respect from sweden
Let's toast to the future Stanley cup champs!
Mcdavid and draisaitl?
@@toke7342 Extremely talented duo. Sadly they have to play with the rest of the team. Edmonton has too many holes and very likely won't win the cup.
@@almVancouver yeah just kidding bro
i go to Sweden every year and i can say their food is pretty good, and much healthier than the usual North American food. restaurant culture is much better, but that's true of most European countries.
What fun, and that cake!
so cool...when i go to a party i say,'BYOF...:))))
No 2nds on cake?
Timmy has no accent at all. This was a great video as well.
Have Serge Ibaka as the chef. Lol
The boys have never been to ikea?
With the kind of dough they have ? No lol
Willy Styles is scoring the cup winning goal.
This is very old as i remember
“Excellent defending” I sure hope so
I know that chef!
wow Lile is a shy quiet guy.. no idea
I have the same lu lu lemon shirt as Holl.
In Sweden it is acually more important to be a good man than winning. Sometimes anyway. Be a good guy is winning. Hurting others to win aint winning. Swedish Society is pretty chill. More respect than i recived in otjer countries. Less hard to live and give. Maybe Willie is swedish?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
If Rielly's passion for the plate could only translate to the ice. Belly up.
these are my guys.
I feel like I’m back at ikea.
Who Did not eat their pea's they are healthy for you add salt and butter not ketchoup🎉❤
Imo it should have been Liljegren instead of Willy because Timmy grew up in Sweden
No one is going to talk about hwo evry one has their fork's i their right hand
Not knitpicking but Willie styles could have lost the hat at the dinner table my mom would have boxed my ears if I didn't remove my hat.
Swedish Food
3 defenseman and a forward that is always dumped on for not playing defense hockey.
The 3 D seem to really like him,...
Maybe the media is wrong yet again?
Dress code was grey or black 😂
Willie take your hat off at the dinner table or go to your room and think about what you did
Why is Willy wearing a beanie why he is eating? What's up with the manners
On a side note, Willy should not grow facial hair. He has such pretty skin and eyes, that a beard ruins his face. Also, he should definitely cut his hair short again, he would look so good 😊❤
Overall, he seems like such a sweet and welcoming guy!
I'm sure he's going to see this and switch up his style just for you
If he doesn't want to be a pretty boy anymore then he doesnt
@@danieleharper2259 lol
Call it the first round exit menu LMAO
Bort med mössan vid matbordet William, smh 🙄
The funniest part of this was calling Rielly's defending "exceptional." Let's just be honest here. He's an offense-only defenseman. His defending is atrocious.
Stopped watching at Morgan Reilly exceptional defending
Serve them some surströmming next time. That will be a hit!
skulle vara roligt och se deras reaktion på lukten dock 😂

"exceptional defending" hmmm :/
So in Sweden …. It’s ok to wear a hat at the dinner table?
No
yes everyone does it. it's actually considered very rude to remove your hat because it plays on insecurities.
on a more serious note, I like Willy the player, but he looks 12-year old here. and I'm not even someone who's that strict with dinner etiquette and stuff.
ruuuuude to wear a hat at the table
Holl eats last
This is agenda driven, with lessons the message
Unpopular opinion. I think the guys were kind of stiff. Would've been better if it seemed more natural and less like an interrogation.
I think that’s on the host…
I think you were going to have this type of conversation anyways but they chose to do it in a more comfortable/low pressure environemnt (over a meal) than around a table.
hockey players are naturally stiff
We Eatin' and now this crap? Wtf is happening
Did u see the sly look from willy to Lilly whe he said willy looked after him too funny boys
How cute, they got a quota hire for MLSE to prove how woke they are.
Being inclusive is woke? Sounds like u just want discrimination
