He will be rewarded for his patience and willingness to remain faithful to the Sabres next season, barring disastrous injuries, their lineup is playoffs worthy now, except between the pipes, if they had a real 1A goaltender this entire season, they likely would be making the playoffs, although they aren't mathematically out just yet. Thompson and Dahlin being injured and not as good as last year when playing (so far anyway) has hurt em too. It's less frustrating of a situation than with the Pens this year, where their 1A goalie, Jarry has either been incredible (6 shutouts) and has stolen games, or earlier in the season when successful, the Pens played a style that worked for an older team, 1-2-2 (passive), whenever they tried to have their main strategy be different than this, they lost, or Jarry has let em down, seemingly still bothered by that injury from 2 seasons ago. I can see a trade between these 2 teams that could correct both problems, that's why I brought up the Pens.
@@severed111 I'm not sure man, I thought they would be a playoff contender this year and years past. I think its more of a culture/locker room problem than an actual skill related one
Im so in love with all the nicknames you're using in these videos. "Sid the Middle-aged Man", "Chicago Bedards", "Vegas Injured Reserves", "San Jose Cup Contenders" etc.
The Preds were supposed to see U2 at The Sphere in Las Vegas, but after an embarrassing loss to the Stars at home, coach Brunette nixed the concert. Since that loss, the Preds have gone on to play 15-0-2, so the meme is that the Preds were so mad (or maybe relieved) about missing U2 that it caused them to go on an absolute tear.
Statement win for the Chicago Bedards to come back from 4-0 against the San Jose Cup Contenders to win yet another Toilet Bowl. Impressive tank job by the green team.
It's pretty nuts actually. They also have one of the lowest combined salaries in the league too. Everyone's playing above their pay grade over there. As a Wings fan it was frustrating to watch them continue that streak against us. Both teams played amazing but one mistake (cough cough Jeff Petry) sealed it. They're just so consistently structured and are constantly out-working the corners and winning nearly every puck battle. Having a roster full of guys that can consistently win puck battles is incredibly valuable and they've got it.
I don't play hockey, I've never played hockey (floorball being the closest, both outside on the ice with my older brother and his friends...guess who had to be goalie btw) nor is hockey even REMOTELY big in Norway..but hell, somehow, I keep coming back for these videos. No idea why, but hey, it's interesting, even though I know NONE of the slang you use, the inside jokes like toiletbowl (I assume that's just when the worst teams meet, but who knows) and why some team is called the "U2" other than the small hint in this video about U2 cancelling a show(?) :P Anyways, from a hockey outsider, keep em coming! And Ive said it before, the maple leafs parade being a rollercoaster is also something I'm invested in now, and I have no idea why :P
Yeah, it really is :P But I wonder if its just because we've ALWAYS been so dogshit in it :P (even though the last years it seems we've at least beaten one or two good teams, but still super small in Norway) Hell, I think all our neighbouring countries LOVE hockey (Im not counting denmark in this one, evn though they are neighbors, but not a border to it) and all 3 of you are part of the big 5-6 teams, alongside USA and Canada. Crazy!@@the_morning_after_phill
Good to hear, good to hear! Had one of you NHL fans reply to me a few episodes ago about how the divisions and conferences and wild card spots also work! Thanks for enlightning a random dude on the internet, greatly appreciated ^_^@@imnashes
as a kings fan hearing you speak on kopi being an underrated stud made me realize no one has really ever done much content on him. to answer your end of the video question, i would LOVE to see a deep dive on captain LA. it would be so cool. love your content.
I always mention it now after I slept on Kopi's totals for awhile, look at the stats of the kings over the years. Kopi is on an island there, I wonder how many more points he would have if he had more skill to play with.
You mentioned him in the vid but Kopitar is so underrated and needs more exposure bc he’s not flashy but he makes the right play 90% of the time. The vid could even be about his line as a whole with QB and kempe. They are a high level line that can compete with anyone. But I’m a kings fan so could be biased lol
At the end of October, MacKinnon had 7 points, and McDavid had 9. By the end of November, they were tied. Mack exploded with 29 points in December, to take a 10 point lead (helped by 3 extra games). Since then, McDavid has clawed back half that lead. It has been back and forth the whole season. Kucherov has been in that dance as well. It is going to come down to the wire, barring injuries.
You do a great recap my dude.. I look forward to it every week.. And as a leafs fan, I think it's hilarious that you're doing a parade watch.. 😂 Keep up the great work.
Weird situation cause he deserved that big deal from Buffalo, but turns out they were NOT the team he should have committed long term to, and the Sabres are fucked with his contract lol. I wish he would go to a good team though, besides some down years when he first signed, he’s always been a solid pro since his early days in Carolina.
The Preds have blown me away this season since the U2 debacle... I think they're contenders for the cup race. Maybe not the final, but I'd love to see them make it through the first few rounds, pull an upset like Florida on Boston last year, something like that. It'd be nice to see a central team that isn't the usual top 3 (Avs, Stars, Jets) make it that far.
Always enjoyed the Santa no Clause parade in hogtown but haven’t experienced the maple leafs parade and this is their year baby 🏆🇨🇦🍁 good breakdowns of the chronic crunchy time, from the toilet bowl to the tee box and everything in between 👍🍻
Would love to see you do a breakdown on Granlund. I remember the expectations that at least us Finns had for him and even though he’s always been a great player he’s never really reached the level of a true starter
Just came across this channel and totally enjoyed it: the content is great , its almost a ball by ball commentary, thats a Cricket terminology: as a person from the Caribbean, Trinidad to be exact, I totally love the game of Hockey and the way you breakdown, the teams, players and the standings is second to none , in my opinion, keep up good work. Could you please do a video with the Great One and the Great 8 : Thanks
The lack of Vancouver highlights is getting to me. Give the West Coast more love bro! How does the team "sitting on top of the NHL" get 1 mention at the very end. Same last week too. Love these vids but would also love some more shout outs to the Nucks.
Because the Canucks need to earn their stripes in the post season. Then, if they can win a couple of series they will get a little more respect. Remember, a great regular season doesn't mean nothing...just ask Bruins fans.
i feel bad for cooley in that sharks bedards game. mans was on his way to a shutout in his first game in his hometown playing for a his hometown team, and they all just decided to stop playing. id be so pissed
More MacKinnon! He’s in his second 18-game point streak of the season, and with 34 games in a row at home with a point, he’s a monster of fierce competitiveness and determination. His extreme drive should place him as the man to beat for the Hart.
You should do a break down of player who had stellar seasons last year and were expected to make big jumps in points, but have failed to even get close to expectations i.e. my entire Seattle Kraken team (except the goalies).
Leafs Cup Parade is totally back on!!!! Check out Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals too. The Great 8 is on a heater and scored another 2 goals today (Sunday) against the Jets to put the Caps back into the final wild card spot and push the Detroit Wings out of a playoff spot.
The fact Jeff Skinner has played 1000 games without a single playoff appearance is crazy
Wow
Hainsey had even more before 2016 (2017?)
Left Carolina I guess before they became a juggernaut and went to Buffalo, the playoff vacuum

"The Las Vegas injured reserves" lmao love it.
Know if they play the bedards again this year?

"Nashville's run sponsored by U2" 😂
Can someone explain this to me :(
I had a small PTSD flashback to that album bricking my phone until I figured out how to delete it.

“San Jose Cup Contenders” really got me 😂😂
"It wouldn't be a normal night of hockey without the penguins making me want to put my head through the wall." me too man. me too.
Yep.
Toilet Bowl is my new favorite hockey term!
new?
The Toiletbowel Cup was amazing
Urinatingtree credited
It's a sports term in general for whenever two really bad teams player each other.
Statement win for the Chicago Bedards to come back from 4-0 against the San Jose Cup Contenders to win yet another Toilet Bowl. Impressive tank job by the green team.
a game to be remembered for at least 24hrs
Can we have a Preds breakdown? I’m curious as to how they’ve been so good recently
It's pretty nuts actually. They also have one of the lowest combined salaries in the league too. Everyone's playing above their pay grade over there.

Preds fan here: pls dont jinx us
Guys, it’s obvious it’s all Gerbe doing some remarkable development coaching for the Preds
Saros, Josi, O'Reilly, Forsberg, and a few other playing at their highest standards.
The O'Reilly factor
The Golden Knights are the epitome of "live long enough to see yourself become the villain"
The villain arc hasnt even started yet 😂
I saw the gold lids and knew they were evil
Bro the Knights have been the villain for like 4 years already
Bruv they’ve been the villains ever since they got their entry draft and snapped up a contending team off rip lol
Uhhmm.. at what point in their history were they not the villain??

yeah I was just going to say this. Somebody mentioned points per dollar he's up there.
i love this guy and the effort he puts in like he watches many games a day for a week and sums it all up on sunday. keep it up!
I laughed way to hard at “Notorious hard worker, Pierre Luc Dubois”
Tuesday was also a brutal day to own a hat made me laugh more than it should have, might be the drinks i had tonight lol
You do a great recap my dude.. I look forward to it every week.. And as a leafs fan, I think it's hilarious that you're doing a parade watch.. 😂
Keep up the great work.
Someone, please get Jeff Skinner on a playoff team. He is so underrated since he's had no playoff time.😢
Weird situation cause he deserved that big deal from Buffalo, but turns out they were NOT the team he should have committed long term to, and the Sabres are fucked with his contract lol. I wish he would go to a good team though, besides some down years when he first signed, he’s always been a solid pro since his early days in Carolina.
This is the first good season he's had in years
love your commentary, thanks for a great vid :)
holy smokes, you're in great shape this week for your hockey related puns
The 24 hours comment and him saying toilet bowl just left me on the ground fr 🤣🤣
"LTIR Legend" LOL. awesome video
I get so pumped for this dirtyy weekly review 😂
"and both these guys were trying to show-off who has the bigger stick" 🤨. That caught me off guard
The amount of puns and hilarious nicknames you're casually including in your videos are great.

Happy for Jake that he can finally play
These weekly updates keep me going
2:37 - I hope after he retires, the Caps permanently have a #8 at the top of the left circle as a nod to Ovie :)
10:57 I was actually at that game, such a fun game to watch!
Would love to see you do a breakdown on Granlund. I remember the expectations that at least us Finns had for him and even though he’s always been a great player he’s never really reached the level of a true starter

As a Wings fan we are scratching our heads too. You can’t implode for a couple of weeks because you don’t have your captain.
Wow almost no love for the Vancouver canucks. Alot of East team breakdowns toilet bowl breakdowns and even the oilers. Share the love my man.
As a Canes fan, I would really love a breakdown video about their game!
Definitely want to see a breakdown on Brayden point
He won't cuz he hates the Lightning for some reason. He's holding a grudge & can't let it go 🤷🏼♂️
Washington is the anomaly.. They won tonight as well, Ovi with 2 goals… How on earth is this happening?
Love the channel man

A caps breakdown would be hilarious... -30 goal differential and how their playing so well.
Highlight of my week!
Sid the "middle age man" 😂😂
Great commentary and the nicknames are money. "The Bedard's"
Justin Brazeau has been an amazing piece to the B's lineup, have to love Marchy getting fired up after the iffy knee on knee.
More MacKinnon! He’s in his second 18-game point streak of the season, and with 34 games in a row at home with a point, he’s a monster of fierce competitiveness and determination. His extreme drive should place him as the man to beat for the Hart.
5:00 perfect advertisement
Canucks for the cup! I think we need a deep dive on the #1 team in the league!
What a filthy backhander from duclair on his former squad, he’s been doing great since the trade

This is Vancouver's year. Were just too good and were missing two huge players but Casey DeDemko DeSmith on the scene
I'm loving how the caps are playing, would love to see Ovi in the playoffs again!

Its the most im paying attention in yeeaars. Can't wait to remember what heartbreak feels like, but im still hoping for the cup.

The loss against Carolina was expected so parade not cancelled yet.
I'm glad the aliens returned Ovi. I hated the non-scoring replacement.

Kucherov.

I’d love to see a video of the oilers focusing on Hyman being number 2 or 3 in the league for scoring as a 123rd overall pick in the 2010 draft.
can a "deeper breakdown" even be done on Pasta? if so that'd be cool
