They're good, But that's 202 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: a four, five, right, Yes, I mean on pay When 203 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: did they start seeding the wasn't there a few years 204 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: where they only would only see one through four? 205 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 4: They seed one through five? Yeah? 206 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 5: And was that just not to hurt people's feelings or something? 207 00:09:58,360 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 5: Why would you. 208 00:09:59,040 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 3: Think it was? 209 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: And it was ridiculous, right, because you would end up 210 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 4: having the one seed would get you know what, would 211 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 4: maybe be the sixth seed, and then the three seed 212 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: would end up playing the eight seeds. Like, well, that's 213 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 4: not fair either. So they're they're all they're all big kids, 214 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 4: they're all big boys.

He writes Viking's plan to release defensive 281 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: tackle Jonathan Allen in a cost cutting move. 282 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 5: A story reads as follows. 283 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: At least the first part of it says, after making 284 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: more than three hundred million dollars in salary cap commitments 285 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: during the twenty twenty five off season. 286 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 5: The Vikings needed clear more than forty. 287 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: Million dollars in cap space by the start of the 288 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six league year, and they appear set to 289 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: free up some of that space by unwinding the moves 290 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: they made last year. 291 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 4: In other words, a not the most successful. 292 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: Free agency offseason for the Vikings last year, as we 293 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: well know, it's been well documented, they spent some some 294 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: some big money on interior defensive lineman interior offensive lineman, 295 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: and the results were mixed at best. Our center had 296 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: the two or three concussions. The offensive lineman, guy Fries, 297 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: I think his name was, He was pretty good, you know, 298 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: not pro bowler, but at least he at least he 299 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: suited it up and played every game and provided some 300 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: resistance to. 301 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 5: A pass rush. 302 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: And the two defensive interior guys basically they were brought 303 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: in to try to provide more interior pass rush that 304 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: didn't work out very well, including Jonathan Allen. They signed 305 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: him to a three year FI fifty one million dollar 306 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: contract a year ago in hopes of bolstering their interior 307 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: pass rush. But they're set to let go of the 308 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: thirty one year old if he posted only three and 309 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: a half sacks and eleven quarterback hits last season. So 310 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: three years, fifty one million, So basically what sixteen million year, 311 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: let's say so I made. Let's say he made sixteen 312 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: last year. That was basically five and a half million 313 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: for each sack. But isn't a bad price to pay 314 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: for a sack, right fin A five and a half 315 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: million dollars. I would hope to get a little bit 316 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: more than that. Here's what I tell people all the 317 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: time time. Let's say you would have worked that whole 318 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: three year contract at fifty one million dollars after taxes, 319 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: that's really about thirty five million, and then you got 320 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: our house, got my. 321 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 4: Car save and vest flawed. 322 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: Can you make fifty one million dollars or thirty five 323 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: million dollars. Can you make thirty five million dollars last? 324 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: That's the big question. He won't get to answer it 325 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: because he's he apparently is going to be released. The 326 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: Vikings would save six point five three million dollars in 327 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: cap space while incurring seventeen million point three three seventeen 328 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: point three three million of dead money in twenty six. 329 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: They'd receive another one point five million cap credit after 330 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: the season for incentives that are currently on their books 331 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: for their twenty twenty six books, because Allen reached them 332 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. 333 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 5: So what all that means, I don't know. 334 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: They're just outsaving money, right, And you know, when you 335 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: look at I brought this up, it was either it 336 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: was either during during Big Game week. 337 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 4: And the lead up to the big game, or maybe 338 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:57,239 Speaker 4: it was afterwards. 339 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: But where the general manager of thele to rub some 340 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: saltan in the wound, That is, we let Sam Darnold 341 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,239 Speaker 1: go and he wins a big game for him as 342 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback for Seattle. He says, Yeah, we pretty 343 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: much hit on every one of our free agents. Yeah, 344 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: every one. They hit themves they were off of themselves. 345 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: They they hit on every single free agen signing. I 346 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: don't really think we hit on one. And that's a 347 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: large reason why Quasiadopha Mens is no longer the general manager. 348 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 5: But as we talked about, it takes two to tango, 349 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 5: and you know, I don't know. 350 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: If we'll ever know exactly how much influencers from a 351 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: coaching staff and how much influence there is from the 352 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: general manager and the ownership and making these decisions. You know, 353 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,719 Speaker 1: we do know there's there's there is input from all 354 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: I There's there's no question about that. And there's there's 355 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: not a coach in the NFL that wakes up on 356 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 1: draft thing goes, I wonder who we're gonna draft what 357 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see. I mean, they're they're all 358 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: they you know, as as as as we've we've read 359 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: and we've been told, it's the general manager of the 360 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: guys that kind of break any ties. 361 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 5: For sure, they make that final decision. 362 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 2: And so. 363 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 4: That's what we'll find out. By the way, the current 364 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 4: interim GM rober Zinski, yes, has always been known as 365 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 4: like the salary cap expert. As part of where we 366 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 4: are in the salary cap right now, is that on 367 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 4: him or is that just all on Quazy and Koc 368 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 4: and Floresta. Well, you know, I don't seem like a 369 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 4: move like that where it's still like sixteen million dollars 370 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 4: in dead cap and we're saving six Well, you know 371 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 4: that's a good question because I and I you know me, 372 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 4: I can't answer that. I can't balance a check book. 373 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 4: I leave that all to my gal. 374 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: But I think oftentimes I'm going to stick up for 375 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: salary capologists people because I'm thinking they are just they 376 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: are tasked, yeah, with something that's really difficult. 377 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 5: It's like, guess what we screwed up on these free agents? 378 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 4: What are we going to do now? Okay, you know 379 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 4: you wanted to sign these guys, and this is the 380 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 4: money we had to pay them to get them in. 381 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 4: I'll figure it out. Just give me a couple of days. 382 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 1: And then they go and they start, you know, crunching 383 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: numbers and redlining and and and But yeah, so I 384 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: don't know how much on the front end they have 385 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: as far as the decision making process. 386 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 4: But you know, I said this a couple of times now, 387 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 4: where I almost think the cap is. 388 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 1: I know it's real, but every team gets under it eventually, right, 389 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: and so I don't you know, and people smarter than 390 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: me can tell me how much it really handcuffs the 391 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: team from signing players. But every team's I've never heard 392 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: of a team where they go, oh, we can't we 393 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: can't play our first. 394 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 5: Game this year. 395 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: Why, well, we're over the cap, and so we've been disqualified. 396 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: We won't be playing this year, so we'll wait till 397 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 1: next year. So they'll figure out a way to get 398 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: under the cap. But you can lose quality players that way, like, 399 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: for instance, Grenard. The conversations the last couple of days 400 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: the news came out, wasn't yesterday, maybe the. 401 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 5: Day before that. 402 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: Well, Grenard might be a salary cap casualty. And make 403 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: no mistake, he's not in the he's not in the 404 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: same conversation is who did we just say, we're. 405 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not a great contract. Yeah, actually, yeah, he's not. 406 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 3: In those. 407 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 4: He's not. 408 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: He Grenard is a quality player that has lived up 409 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: to I believe, I believe exceeded contract. Yes, and and 410 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: and because of that though he could become because of 411 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: the salary cap situation, he could become a casualty. 412 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 5: And it's it's. 413 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: Unfortunate, and as we talked about yesterday, people are asking, 414 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: why would you allow him to go? Because they're deep 415 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: at that or they feel they're deep at that position 416 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: because Dallas Turner who again, And that's that's another story. 417 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 4: You and you you moved up in the draft. 418 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: What three years ago? Was it is he going into 419 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: was fourth year? Now you you moved up to draft him? 420 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: And so when you when when you're when you're moving 421 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: up to draft the guy? What was he was drafted 422 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: at seventeen or twelve wherever it was. I don't I 423 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 1: don't recall you was it was first round pick? 424 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 4: You move up. 425 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: That guy's expected to be a a not just a starter, 426 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: but an impact player and he had not been an 427 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: impact player at all until this past season where he started, 428 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: especially late in the year. But again, how much is 429 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 1: this the competition because if you remember, we were playing 430 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: some teams that really didn't have much going for themselves. 431 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: And I don't know, but uh, that's that's the decisions 432 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: they have to make in the front office. You know, look, 433 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: we like Grenard, we love him to stay, but you know, 434 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: Brazinski GM slash Sudur cap guy goes, We're over the Cap. 435 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: We got to figure something out. So then they move 436 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: in that direction to' let guys go. So I'll looks 437 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: like Allen's a casualty. I don't know the other defensive 438 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: linean was his name, Javon Hargre Hargrave. Is he going 439 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: to be a solary Cap capture? 440 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 4: I would assume by the way he retweeted something that's 441 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 4: gotten some attention because there's there was somebody ripping Brian 442 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 4: Flores and his inability to get defensive tackles, to play 443 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 4: well and be able to get the quarterback. 444 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: And then Javon Harcave retweeted it, Oh he did. Yeah, 445 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 1: Oh so Hardgrave needs a fall guy. Yeah, he's got 446 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: his fall guy. 447 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 448 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 5: And so Flores is apparently that far. Well, that's the 449 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 5: other way. 450 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: We'll talk more vikings other side of the break into 451 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: the mock draft stuff. So I take him with a 452 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: grain of salt because I don't think anybody that's reported, well, 453 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: we've talked about this, you know, hundreds hundreds hundreds of 454 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: times that other than Purple Prey, most of the media 455 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 1: people really, I mean they. 456 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 4: Know the top me. 457 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: You look at the mel Kiper guide or any other 458 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: guide and you know who the top ten guys are 459 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 1: at each position, So media guys just in order to 460 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: fill space or fill time on the radio, just go, hmm, 461 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: how about this guy that's ranked third, he'd be a 462 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: good fit for Team X y Z, And then they 463 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: just I'll throw him in as as somebody they're looking at. Well, 464 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: they probably are looking at him, but how. 465 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 5: Serious are they? It all remains to be seen. 466 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: But let's take a break and come back a peek 467 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: at the Purple was brought to you by our friends 468 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: at Affordable Electric. Affordable Dash Electric for all of your 469 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: electrical needs. Some more NFL talk on the side of 470 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: the break, Common Man Program. 471 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 6: On the fan. 472 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 4: There's nothing like live hockey experience in Minnesota. Wild Action 473 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 4: at Grand Casino Arena all season long. Security seats now 474 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 4: at wild dot com, slash tickets and join the excitement. 475 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 2: A couple of. 476 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: Thirteen fourteen past Common Man Program might have some break, 477 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: but the news really isn't breaking. I think this is 478 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 4: the Bears are going to trade DJ Moore right there? 479 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 4: He did well. I don't know if it's official, but 480 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 4: that's being reported. Okay, is that do you think to 481 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 4: free up money for Max Crosby. Uh, maybe that's part 482 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 4: of that. I think it's mostly just they have so 483 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 4: many receiving weapons that it's pointless to keep them all. 484 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 4: You might as well get something in return. 485 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 2: You know. 486 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 4: DJ Moore was probably he's the most expensive of their 487 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 4: receivers because the other two are on rookie contracts. But uh, 488 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 4: you know, Romadonza I think is going to be a 489 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 4: better receiver than him. Luther Burden was a rookie this year, 490 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 4: had a good year. They also have a really really 491 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 4: good about to be second year tight end in Colson Lovelin. 492 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 4: So it's one of those where not enough balls to 493 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 4: go around, Well then you might as well shed the 494 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 4: West salary of the But then but then what I'm 495 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 4: saying is it. 496 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 5: Works out perfect for him. 497 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 4: It's like, hey, this is great Kilbert, two birds of 498 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 4: one stone. 499 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: We've got enough receiving apparatus that we can go ahead 500 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: and the guy's pretty good. But a little longer they 501 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 1: do to makes more money, we can part ways with him. 502 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: We still have receivers and we money for Max Cross. 503 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a win win win. It's a win win win. 504 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 4: DJ Morgat's catch passes from Josh Allen. Yeah, and it's 505 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 4: a win for Buffalo because they have given Josh Allen 506 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 4: zero help like the last year or two. 507 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: U pst's tennebe, Kevin Gorg's been nominated. Really yeah, this 508 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: is from Dave, he says common today during the broad 509 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: he sent this. It was yesterday's game today during the 510 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: broadcast of the game with Hibbing Chishom versus Dodge County. 511 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 1: Hibbing chishm went up one zip with a couple minutes 512 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: left in the second period. Dodge County had an offensive 513 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: of his own, face off coming up. Gorg said something 514 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: along the lines of Dodge County doesn't need to score here, 515 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: they just want to get out of this period only 516 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 1: down by one goals roughly seventy five seconds later, hibbing 517 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: that score twice, making it three to zero after the 518 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: second period. Tennabe or I mean the PST committee will 519 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: need to look at look it up for proof, So, 520 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: Kevin Gorg. 521 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 4: I don't even need to look it up. I just 522 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 4: got to trust that that was the Sellen's exactly on brand. Yeah, Ken, Yeah, Well, 523 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 4: and then do sent me a text. 524 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 5: This is what he says. This was at eleven twenty seven. 525 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: He said some Channel five commentator just compared Minnetonka to 526 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: the nineteen ninety two thousands. 527 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 5: New Jersey Devils, And then I said the deuce, No 528 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 5: he didn't. 529 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 4: You're making that up. 530 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: You have to me, and he said, I wish I 531 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: were so somebody on forty five. I'll have to find 532 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 1: out who it is. 533 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 4: He's on there right now. Maybe it was mikletty. I 534 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 4: bet it was mcletty. I guess they're just saying because 535 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 4: Minnetaka is such a great defensive team. I'm guessing because 536 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 4: they are just loaded with the stud defenseman. Okay, I'm guessing. 537 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm guessing. For the they tried to 538 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 4: make the comparison. 539 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: Try to compare to another high school hockey team that's 540 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: had some great defensive success, even if that is the case. 541 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: To him, but we've never letting Latin, We've never let 542 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: We've never let taking things, not taking taking things out 543 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: of context, getting it getting in the way of PS team. 544 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 2: You. 545 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,959 Speaker 5: This is Michael Russo.

They added the big six, 574 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: sixth guy, he was like a fourth lineer you And 575 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: then who was. 576 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 4: The other guy they got by the way Matt Zucarello 577 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 4: had Apparently I saw Joe Smith of the Athletic tweet this. 578 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 4: They had a funny line because the last time they 579 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 4: played Nashville, Zukarella kind of went to do a little 580 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 4: slashing motion after the whistle on McCarran and McCarron acted 581 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 4: like the slash hit his hand even though didn't, so 582 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 4: they started faking like, oh my hand hurts. You got 583 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 4: me on the hand. So apparently Zucarello met McCarran the 584 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 4: day he's now with the team, right, and the first 585 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 4: thing said was how's your hand? Just genius? Yeah, it's 586 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 4: a brilliant line. 587 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 5: Think about it. 588 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 4: And did he say house hand was? 589 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 5: Did he respect? 590 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 4: I don't know if I don't know about the response. 591 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 4: I didn't see that reported. So we don't we've. 592 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: We've been the wild I think you've told me we've 593 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: moved a lot of players to acquire players. Our assets 594 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: are a little lower than other clubs. 595 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 4: Is that correct? 596 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 5: Future draft picks. 597 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 4: Well, we've given a lot of them away yet, I mean, 598 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 4: we don't have a second round pick for the next 599 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 4: three years, and I think we're missing our first round 600 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 4: pick for this year. 601 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: You know the NHL better than I do. I know 602 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: in the NBA basically, And again I know there are arguments. 603 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: There's always exceptions to the rule. Joker was a fortieth 604 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: pick overall, but generally speaking, you got to get a 605 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: guy in the first round, and usually early first round, 606 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: if he's going to be a kind of a franchise 607 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: kind of a player in hockey would do. How does 608 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: I mean? I mean, the second round picks better than 609 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: the third round pick out. How many rounds are there 610 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: in the NHL draft? 611 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 4: How deep? Seven? 612 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: I believe seven, So like the NFL. How yeah, I 613 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: guess in seconds not but how many of those guys 614 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: turn out? I mean I couldn't give you a percentage. 615 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean maybe even first round picks don't turn out. Yeah, 616 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: but then you random like Caroll Caprice South it was 617 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: a fifth round pick. The second rounders are typically going 618 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: to be NHL ers, Okay, But and you're gonna get 619 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: some stars out of there occasionally. But yeah, I'm just 620 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: like any draft, the higher you are, the seems like 621 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: a lot of the franchise changers in the. 622 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 4: NHL typically come out of the top five picks. 623 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: Rand Ball Rode a piece yesterday is talking about the 624 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: various teams, where they are, where they've been going, where 625 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: they're at, and he writes Wild GM Bill Garon, who 626 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: has been on a roster building role spending both his 627 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: NHL club and Gold medal winning team the USA men's squad, 628 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: had a succinct and candid answer when asked why the 629 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: Wild we're willing to part with a second round pick 630 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: to add depth center Michael McCarron on Tuesday, Garan said 631 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: that second round pick is not going to help us 632 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: right now. 633 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 4: We have to get it back in three. 634 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 5: Years or whatever. 635 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: Maybe we can do that almost what Danny Campbell said. 636 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: I brought up Campbell's quote a couple of times. He said, 637 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: you guys have been spending a lot of money on players, 638 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: and he goes, yeah, I will keep spending until we 639 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: run out of it. So I guess you just keep 640 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: trading prospects till you run out of prospects and get 641 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: your team. So this sounds like that quote whenever that 642 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: was if it was Tuesday, here we are Thursday, but 643 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: now we're saying, well, Russo's reporting that the price might 644 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: be a little bit too high for tro Chat, which 645 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: kind of flies in the face of well, you know, 646 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: these prospects aren't going to help us now. 647 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 4: Which, by the way, I hate that quote. You do, 648 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 4: but you could say that about it. Any future draft 649 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 4: pick doesn't going to help you right now. Yeah, so 650 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 4: you could just recklessly spend and give all your draft 651 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 4: picks away. They're still important, and yeah they don't might 652 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 4: not help you right now, but it could help you, yeah, 653 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty seven and twenty twenty eight, to have 654 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 4: those picks. But I don't know. You know, Bill Garon's 655 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 4: been around for a long time, and you know he 656 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 4: might be thinking if we don't win now or in 657 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 4: the next two years, he might not be around then. 658 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: Anyway, Yeah, I could that could be part of it too. 659 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: I think sometimes, and maybe I'm wrong, I think sometimes 660 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: trades or lack their job are judged on well, the 661 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: guy's worried about his job. The general manager, Yeah, I guess. 662 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody's worried about job security. But if you're 663 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: gonna if all you're worried about his job security, I 664 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: think you're gonna have a hard time field and a 665 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: really good team because you're always gonna you're gonna be 666 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: slow to make any decisions. You're always going to be 667 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 1: too conservative. That's why I've said all along that it's 668 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, Rosen brought up the name George Allen. The 669 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: Boomers know who he was. He was a coach for 670 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: the Rams and for the Washington back when they were 671 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: the Redskins, and his famous quote is the future is now, 672 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: and he traded any draft picks to get veteran players 673 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: that could. 674 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 4: Lead the team into a big game. 675 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 2: Now. 676 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 4: Allen literally the world's tagline right now. By the way, 677 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 4: That's that's what they're like doing commercials. Realm. The future 678 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 4: is now, and that's what they're calling it. 679 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 5: So I don't mind. 680 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: See, I don't mind that. I know what you're saying, 681 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm tired of if you're always worried about 682 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: It's what Johan Santana said. He said, back when the 683 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: Twins were weren't weren't weren't acquiring, they weren't spending any money, 684 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: and they trade deadline. 685 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 4: They weren't going out and getting anybody. 686 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: He said, they always seem to be worried about the 687 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: future here rather than the now. I'm paraphrase he said, 688 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: maybe some of us won't be a part of that future. 689 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,919 Speaker 1: So if I'm on this team now, that being said, 690 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: I'm contradicting myself to to a certain ascent because I've said, well, 691 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: this team has played so well, right now, do we 692 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: really even need to. 693 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 4: Make a move. I'm okay if you're also contradicting yourself, 694 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,720 Speaker 4: And I guess it's different sports in a different position. 695 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 4: But like the Jordan love thing, right, you like you 696 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 4: you at the time when we were having the debate 697 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 4: of hey, the Green Bay Packers could draft a wide 698 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 4: receiver in this spot to help Aaron Rodgers get them 699 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 4: over the edge and go to the big game. And 700 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 4: you said, but it's the GM's responsibility. He is the 701 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 4: caretaker of the franchise, is the he's responsible. 702 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're right, you was You're preface to with 703 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: that's to me, that's that's apples in order, really, But. 704 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 4: I'm just I guess my point is is that's the 705 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 4: hard thing about being a GM, right, you always have 706 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 4: to ride that fine line of now and in the future, 707 00:34:53,320 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 4: and I think you're responsible for both. Yeah, But I 708 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 4: have no problem with them trading second round picks. I 709 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 4: have them. I have problem with them trading second round 710 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,479 Speaker 4: picks for a fourth liner. I think it also. 711 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: That's where my problem stems from. Well, I think it 712 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: all depends upon two where a team is and it's 713 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: in its history. The Wild have been awful for their 714 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: entire existence. Awful, simply awful. I mean, I know they've 715 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: been mediocre, yeah medio, okay, mediocre, yeah, all right, the Wolves. 716 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,439 Speaker 1: That's why when the Wolves traded for for Gobert, I said, 717 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's gonna work. Having two big guys. 718 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: That hasn't worked since you know, was it uh Elijah 719 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: Wah and Samson And no one's tried two big guys 720 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: at the same time. But as bad as this team 721 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: has been, I'm willing to try anything. I'm all, I 722 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: don't care about a second round. If you get troped. 723 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: I'd pay whatever it takes to get tro Check. If 724 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: you think that, unless you look at it and say, 725 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: Trocheck offers us a lot. But I don't know if 726 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 1: he offers us a lot where it's like, well, that's 727 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 1: the final piece, now we really have it. Because the 728 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: way they've been playing out, you could say, they've got 729 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 1: a chance to go all the way to the Stanley 730 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 1: Cup finals with the team they currently have. 731 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 5: But I don't worry so much. 732 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 4: The problem is, though, like if you spend too much 733 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: on trocheck and now you have no assets and then 734 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 4: some big fish AT's the market, you're not in the 735 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 4: market anymore. Yeah, So that's the risk of doing it. 736 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 4: Like to me, we it's not you know, I'm talking 737 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 4: about the second rounder in twenty twenty eight and it's 738 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 4: not even necessarily about that pick. It's about also using 739 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 4: that as an asset to go get someone else. Yeah, 740 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 4: and we just wasted it. So every little bad move 741 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 4: like that hinders your ability to make other bigger moves 742 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 4: in the future. 743 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,879 Speaker 1: Well, if you believe that trading a second round pick 744 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: for a fourth for McCarran guy's a mistake, obviously Billy 745 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 1: Garran felt different. 746 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 4: Why is garon And. 747 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 1: There are other people I've seen the message boards, other 748 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: people that think trading for what is basically a fourth 749 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: line guy for a second round pick was a mistake 750 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: as well. 751 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 4: Why would Billy do it? What does he think about 752 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 4: mceren and where the team is all in? And I 753 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 4: am too, then I support him on it. 754 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 5: I'm all in. 755 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 4: I it doesn't interest me to be what we've been forever. 756 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 1: And that's like, ah, maybe we get into the first 757 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: round of the playoffs and god, what what if we 758 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: spring it up to? 759 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 5: What if we you know, the Jock Lamaar thing was 760 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 5: great where we were. 761 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 1: We just we defensively, we were so good we were 762 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: able to get our ways to the Western Conference finals. 763 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 5: But I'm all for it. 764 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 4: I'll ask you this. I am all for adding. I 765 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 4: just don't like that move. 766 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 1: I'll ask you. I'll ask you to you this way. 767 00:37:52,080 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 1: If you traded Royce Lewis and we're guaranteed you could 768 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: win a world series? What world series would you trade 769 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: in a heartbeat? If you knew you could trade that 770 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: second round pick for mccaron that would win you a 771 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup? 772 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 5: Would you be willing to make that? 773 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 4: No doubt? 774 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: Okay, So if they win the Stanley Cup, will you 775 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: apologize to be the guarant especially if mccaran is instrumental. 776 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 4: If he's instrumental, yes, I will. If he's in the 777 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 4: press box the whole time, I won't. Yeah, what if 778 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 4: you're not invited to the parade? Then critical of the 779 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 4: general manager. To me, it'd be hard to be critical 780 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 4: of a you can you know, you can pick a 781 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 4: part at any any I'm just I'm critical of that move. 782 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 4: I'm not critic there's other moves he's been The quin 783 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 4: Hughes thing was right, an absolute grand slam. I love 784 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 4: that move, and he gave up a lot for him. 785 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 4: But it was terrific move. The Quinn Hughes move put 786 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,399 Speaker 4: this in a team where now we can talk about 787 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 4: them going all in because now you're looking, go man, 788 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 4: they're not that far off. They got a lot of 789 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 4: star pieces to work around. Now, Yeah, I mean he does, 790 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 4: I mean he put them in a position. What's that 791 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 4: move did he dealt to get Hughes? 792 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 5: Wasn't it? 793 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 1: Rosy Ogrin and Zeeve William That's a lot of capital 794 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: it was. But Quinn Hughes is worth it. 795 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe McCarron will be worth the second round the. 796 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 4: Second round, but what if another Quinn Hughes type player 797 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 4: is on the market at some point in the next year, 798 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 4: It's hard for you to get him because you just 799 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,240 Speaker 4: wasted away a second round pick for no reason. 800 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: I don't think the second round pick would be the 801 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 1: difference between the next Quinn Hughes. Not if that is, 802 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 1: then there's something. 803 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 4: I'm just saying. They're already limited in their assets now, 804 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 4: so you you don't want to waste any But if. 805 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: They resigned Quinn Hughes, they're not going to have any 806 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,959 Speaker 1: money to sign the next Quinn Hughes coming out because 807 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: e'very Abody got caprice Off on the books, and they've 808 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:46,479 Speaker 1: got Hes on the books. 809 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 4: They're gonna have Boldie on. They can't add much more. 810 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 4: He is actually very affordable for now for the next 811 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 4: three four years. 812 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you think they could afford another big contract 813 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: like a Caprice Off contract. 814 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 4: Depends on what the on how much the salary cap 815 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 4: goes up. But maybe they're they're under the assumption the 816 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 4: salary cap is going to go up significantly. Now we've 817 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 4: had a lot of years where the salar cap barely moves, 818 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 4: So I don't know what to think of when it 819 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 4: comes to the NHL with that. This one says. 820 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: BG traded for mccieren because Sturm has been terrible since 821 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: we got him in the off season. Mccieran plays the 822 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 1: same game, but it's bigger and wins more face offs, 823 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 1: which is huge for this team, says I think the 824 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: only reason they traded from is because Felino will be 825 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: out for quite some time. I think that's something to 826 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: do with some toughness, insurance and a guy that can 827 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,359 Speaker 1: win bigger and can win some face offs. That's huge 828 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 1: for this I don't have a problem with them acquiring McCarran, 829 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: but that's the only way. It's giving up a second 830 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: round pick for m What if they said it's a 831 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: second round picker, you can't have them, you would it. 832 00:40:53,719 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 4: Would look somewhere else. There's got to be there has 833 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 4: to be other guys that play centers, that can win 834 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 4: face offs in the league, that can play fourth line 835 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 4: for you, doesn't a big defender in the playoffs? On 836 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 4: awfully good? 837 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 5: What am I missing? 838 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: They're starting to pile up on you now, Tennaby, I 839 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: in your I'm gonna start with a new slogan in Billy. 840 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 5: We believe in Billy. 841 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 4: This is the problem now, is like, now this is 842 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 4: going to turn into I'm anti McCarran, which I'm not. 843 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 4: I'm just anti McCarran at a second round price.
