LFR17 - Round 1, Game 7 - Eulogy - Maple Leafs 1, Bruins 2 (OT)

HAT GUY: No dude, NOOO! No! I  can't believe they lost again! 

STEVE: You can't? HAT GUY: Oh I hate the  

last LFR video of the Season! Every year!  When am I even going to see you again? 

STEVE: On this channel? Probably  when everybody gets fired

Let’s go! - good we all feel - stop! - never gets  

rusty! - What am I doing? - INNA MY  KITCHEN - Producer Drew can you fix  

all this? - *screaming* - And when it comes  to the Toronto Maple Leafs you can crumple  

crumple YEET - Saw that going differently  - with you wherever you are welcome to LFR

Iggy this isn't a victory puppy treat, you just  deserve it. I-I'm half convinced the Leafs are  

trying to see you die of starvation. Dude I  I love you - I okay all right it's - I don't  

need consolation anyway it's cool it's great! Aw  hello hey how you doing HELLO. HI! Once again!  

It's funny every year this video, EVERY YEAR,  you know it's a lot of pressure. It's a lot of  

pressure when the Leafs get eliminated from  the playoffs. It's always a lot of pressure  

because suddenly this channel that like it  gets good viewership it does pretty well!  

It does pretty well! Like I'm not a rich man but  sometimes me and my wife we buy organic bananas  

you know what I mean? You know what I mean?!  We do okay but every year when the Leafs get  

eliminated a quarter million people show up! Like  a decent sized Canadian city! All you can do,  

all you can do here's your tax here's your  payment all right you sicko?! Here watching this,  

here watching this! This is all I ask you to  do click like click subscribe and tell all your  

friends - Producer Drew who edits these videos,  I'm going to do my best. This is just going to  

be off of the Dome. Off of the top of the Dome,  freestyling off from memory, from nothing, I don't  

even know from what! ‘Cause here's the thing - all  day, all day, I was thinking about what I would  

say when the Leafs won. When the Leafs won, all  day. And I thought to myself “is this arrogance?  

Is this just me assuming the Leafs - THE LEAFS?  - would win?” No! Because I'm not nuts, I'm not  

nuts all right?! I know what I'm talking about!  I know who the Leafs are! Famously! Actually!

I was thinking about what I would say today when  the Leafs won all day and I didn't realise until  

just now why that is. Because I had to think about  it! I don't have to think about this! I don't even  

have any notes in front of me! I haven't even  watched the highlights back! Saw a couple Clips  

on Twitter. I'm still calling it Twitter. I'm  never going to call it X! I am not even going  

to watch the highlights back. I don't have to!  I'm a historian! I know this! I know this team!  

Boston Bruins fans, I know your team! You know the  narrative change was right there too, you know it  

was right there. Oh you know it was right there! I  was going to take a crown, I was going to take an  

actual crown and hand it to you because it would  be the Leafs as like the all-time chokers right?  

But the Bruins become the first team in North  American Sports history to blow a 3-1 series lead  

in back to back years?! Anybody can do that in  one year, the Leafs, but it takes a truly special  

team. It's never happened in the history of  Hockey baseball basketball on this continent and  

the Bruins - one goal away from doing it! But you  didn't. You didn't because the Boston Bruins win  

2-1 in overtime of game seven against the Toronto  Maple Leafs. Oh I just remembered something that  

I have to do! You're not going to believe it!  You're not going to believe it! You're not  

gonna [Pained laughter] because I forgot [Deranged  laughter] - hey did that loss hurt? Oh I bet it

oh my - what was that website again?! Injury  assist.ca got it! Oh tears in my eyes!

Listen Leaf fans, we all know what’s going on  here, this is a eulogy. This is a eulogy for  

the Leafs. Bruins fans? Listen, this was a very  different series from series in years past. And in  

some series in years past, there have been a lot  of things to complain about honestly. Officiating  

was… interesting! Festive! It uh benefited the  Bruins greatly uh to be frank and some player  

safety decisions also. This year? None of that.  None of that. A little bit of that here and there  

didn't like this non call, didn't like that one  the Leafs had plenty of that go their way too!  

They did - dude look at the first goal of this  game! Dude I I thought Tyler Bertuzzi was getting  

called for sure! It's the third period, trips up  his guy or the guy tripped or whatever happened,  

it sure looked like it real time, he gets  it to Auston Matthews to William Nylander  

scores! - “Bert out there with Matthews and  Nylander, Matthews with it behind the net,  

on oh stopped, Benoit comes up with it, he's  deep Matthews where is it?! Blocked he knocks  

it loose! Carlo comes up with it! Bertuzzi takes  down his man, no call, Matthews SETS UP NYLANDER,  

WHO SCORES! Oh Baby! That's going to cause some  controversy! But the Leafs score! The dude who  

got the puck is celebrating! And William Nylander  who called it? This guy! Gets the first goal of  

the game! 10:59 to go in the third period! 2013  they couldn't hold, 2019 they couldn't hold,  

2018 they couldn't hold, can they hold this?”  But Bruins fans damn damn! The Leafs lost fair  

and square. You won fair and square. I I I got  nothing to complain about in that regard. I  

don't! I don't! It was a tight series, real tight  series, obnoxiously tight series, I don't even  

know if that series was pleasurable to watch for  either fanbase or any of the other 30! Maybe the  

outcome but not throughout! Not through - if the  Canucks Predators had the most painful Series this  

was number two, this was number two. The Boston  Bruins were incredible. They were incredible and  

and I know a lot of people have been saying  “The Florida Panthers are gonna smack whoever  

they play in the second round!” First of all yeah  second of all you don't know that! You don't know,  

that that would have been my prediction for sure  whoever if it was the Leafs or the Bruins uh I  

mean the Panthers smacked, smacked Tampa in  five and now they're gonna play an exhausted  

busted up team. Neither team took over this  series, like ever ever. When the Bruins did  

get ahead it's because the Leafs couldn't stop a  beach ball and also they couldn't score a goal!

But the Bruins were a big part of the reason that  they couldn't score a goal. Jeremy Swayman was a  

big part of the reason they couldn't score a goal!  Now let's talk about this, Jeremy Swayman. I know  

a lot of Bruins fans know this but there's a  narrative going on around there and if a lot  

of people are going to watch this video I want  to nip it in the bud. Jeremy Swayman was mad,  

mad, big mad, that the leaf didn't draft  him because they said they might and the  

pick comes in the fourth round think it's 110th  overall and the Leafs select a goalie who is not  

Jeremy Swauman they selected Ian Scott, Jeremy  Swayman went to the Boston Bruins with the next  

pick that is haunting stuff and it is the sort  of thing that has fueled Jeremy Swayman and it  

fueled him through this series and it fueled him  to get a big game seven win! Ian Scott was not  

a bad draft pick. This dude was CHL goalie  of the year in 2019. He looked like he was  

going to be incredible. He played seven pro  games, he had to retire in his early 20s due  

injuries. In fact there was one, it was so cruel,  he finally rehabs his way back from injuries, he  

plays one exhibition game with the Leafs, he looks  incredible in that exhibition game, and he doesn't  

even get to complete the like one period that he  was assigned to play because he was injured. It's  

just the worst. It's just the frigging worst and  I just wanted to tell that story because I know  

it's been out there like “Oh the Leafs made  a stupid pick and who the hell is Ian Scott!”  

Ian Scott is a dude who should be playing pro  hockey right right now but life's not fair. Our  

bodies are not fair. Things happen and speaking  of bodies - Joseph Woll did not play in this  

game! And we don't know why yet! I'm waiting for  an injury update, haven't got it. Haven't got it,  

but he wasn't even the backup for this game! After  stealing game five and stealing game six - what  

improved for the Leafs in games five and game six?  They didn't score, the power play still didn't  

score, what happened in game five?! Joseph Woll  became the started goalie! And he was incredible  

in game five and he was incredible in game six  and he almost got the shutout and he didn't.

Because the Bruins scored with 0.1 seconds  left and Joseph Woll tried to make a save  

on a shot that didn't matter, and didn't make the  save anyway. And if that is the play that he was  

hurt on, and that is the reason that he couldn't  play in game seven, dude. If you go watch the  

blueprint clip that the Leafs put on social media  Joseph Woll gets the game puck, and he makes a  

speech to the guys and he goes “let's go get a win  in Boston!” There was a way he said it where I was  

like ‘this kid is cold, this kid is COLD.’ And  now I watch it in a completely different light.  

He knew he wasn't going to play. He knew he wasn't  going to play and I don't know what happened and I  

know it must have killed him in the moment but I  think he had a strong inkling he wasn't going to  

be able to play. I don't know what the injury  was. Speaking of which, I talked about Auston  

Matthews setting up the goal, setting up the one  goal that the Leafs scored in this game! I don't  

know what his injury is either, he had an illness  and it turned into an injury. He was pulled by the  

doctor in game four. Couldn't play game five, an  elimination game, Leafs won anyway, couldn't play  

in game six an elimination game, Leafs won anyway,  then he played in game seven battling whatever the  

hell demons and he was tied for the Leaf lead  in scoring with one point, setting up the Leafs  

only goal of the game. I mean what do you want?  What else do you want? What I want is A SAVE!  

AAAAAA! The puck, the puck, the puck! We think  Ilya Samsonov has played his final game as a  

Toronto Maple Leafs, Joseph Woll goes in net,  Joseph Woll plays spectacular, Joseph Woll  

gets hurt so it's Samsonov again. And all night  long Samsonov hadn't allowed a goal, he hadn't  

allowed a goal, that's the gig I guess! But like  goalies get beat, goalies get beat sometimes, he  

hadn't allowed a goal. The Bruins though they kept  putting a lot of them into his chest. He made a  

few really good saves, he did, he did and then the  Bruins are getting their opportunities and well  

I'll just I'll just let me walk you through it. “Leaf's running around a little bit here,  

running around running around. McCabe strong  on the puck but falls down, Bruins where is it?  

Rebound? OVER THE NET, it touched the top of the  net they score! Boston has tied it. Trent Frederic  

9:38 to go in the third. Hampus Lindholm leading  the draw, it was someone. Let's see how this  

happened. It was Hampus Lindholm with 9:38 to go  in the third. Boy you know this is going to be a  

story tomorrow. Leafs blow a uh third period lead  in 2013 and 2018, we'll see about 2024. The puck  

hit the top of the net and JVR finds Lindholm,  yuck! I don't know if Sammy was screened or what.  

Ewwww.” I know if you play with fire you're going  to get burned and the Leafs were playing with fire  

and the Bruins were putting on great pressure -  THAT CAN’T GO IN, MAN! I know a goalie is going  

to get beat. That goal sucks dude. When did Jeremy  Swayman get beat by that in this series and not  

have it go off of someone? You know what I mean?  When did Jeremy Swayman - games one through seven  

in overtime when did Jeremy Swayman get beat like  that?! When did Linus Ullmark? I wouldn't remember  

he only played one game and it was game two and  they never went back to him! Because they didn't  

have to! Haunting stuff, haunting stuff. And now  because the Leafs got the lead in the third period  

in game seven, in Boston, and then lost that lead  in the third period, in game seven, in Boston,  

that means three times in the last 11 years the  Leafs have had a lead in the third period of game  

seven, in Boston, AND BLOWN IT. You're the worst,  you're the worst, you're the absolute worst! Three  

different goalies did that. Three different  Dcores. Did any of those three teams have any  

overlap? Like in terms of Dcore? Rielly 2018 and  uh and uh 20 - uh this year that's got to be it  

right? That's got to be it! Like any of the 2013  guys were in 2018 I don't think so! Maybe Gardiner  

oh Gardiner oh, Gardiner. Hm. Well two. It's not  a lot! Wouldn't need overtime if you got a save  

there. Wouldn't need overtime if you scored more  than one goal! And we go to overtime, and it's  

early in overtime, we've been through a lot in  this game. There's tons we haven't even talked  

about Connor Dewar on his Breakaway, stopped.  Bruins getting some glorious opportunities,  

power plays going back and forth, Matthew Knies  with the penalty shot that apparently wasn't a  

penalty shot. And it all comes down to this in  overtime. Hampus Lindholm with the play of the  

playoffs to David Pastrnak. “That won't be ice  no way no shot. 18:20 to go in the first overtime  

I mean we're a - oh what a play! Off the boards,  series winner. Big play from a big player after  

being challenged by his coach. David Pastrnak.  The Bruins for the first time, in seven attempts,  

win an elimination game and they will go on to the  second round to take on the Florida Panthers. An  

absolutely magnificent play, a magnificent  play.” Do you want to see my impression of  

Jim Montgomery calling out David Pastrnak after  game six saying Pasta needs to step up? You want  

to see my impression? There, there it is. That's  that's my Jim Montgomery impression right there!  

Calling out a star and his star wins the series in  game seven in overtime! And by the way my producer  

reliably tells me that some of you might have  found that inappropriate like I was no no no no,  

that that wasn't a gesture it was Jim Montgomery  telling David Pastrnak bounce the bad narratives  

away - just bounce, simply bounce away from  them that's that's that's what he was telling  

them. It was a magnificent goal! Magnificent. And  Lindholm drew that up, it was beautiful, Pasta  

drew that up, it was beautiful and I didn't see  it coming and neither did the Leafs! Jesse Blake  

uh found some screenshots we could just throw  them up - we don't even need to throw to them,  

uh Mitch Marner coming off the bench he's with  David Pastrnak, I don't know if he knows it and  

then David Pastrnak guns it and Marner doesn't.  I'm not saying Marner should have known he  

was there and would have been pretty chill if  he did. Would have been pretty chill if he did.

Would have been pretty chill if Rielly got to  that puck first. Would have been pretty chill  

if Samsonov made a save. But Lindholm perfectly  puts the puck off the boards, Pasta lightning  

speed to the puck and Ilya Samsonov gave David  Pastrnak just a puck size hold to shoot at,  

doing the splits. And that's where Pasta put it.  Al Dente. Just beautiful. A big play from a big  

player. The Leafs - did they get that? Did they?  How often did they get it? Look at this - Auston  

Matthews like sick and injured, a goal not the  greatest and three assists. Four Points in five  

games! You know? Pretty good right? Pretty good.  Max Domi making three mil, goal three assists,  

four points in seven games. And also their number  one center by the end of it. Tyler Bertuzzi,  

goal three assists four points. William Nylander  only played four games this series HE LED THE  

TEAM IN GOAL SCORING. WITH. THREE. Matthew Knies  two goals and one assist for three points. Mitch  

Marner in seven games one goal and two assists for  three points. That's going to go great. He, um is  

actually tied for scoring uh with two defensemen  uh Morgan Rielly and Ilya Lyubushin with  

three assists each and John Tavares, OOF visually  I didn't think he played this bad but one goal  

one assist two points in seven games. Guys!  Here's where we are, and I'm going to explain  

why everyone who's going is going. The core is  getting blown up. However the core gets blown up,  

fill your boots! Don't know, don't care. I assume  Matthews is staying, scored 69 goals, and did  

pretty good these playoffs. William Nylander  just signed an extension, scored three goals  

in four games in these playoffs. I assume he's  staying. That leaves Mitch and John! Who combined  

for Five Points by the way! Two and three, and  two goals. They combine for as many goals as  

Matthew Knies who's a 21 year old! They haven't  scored - how many times - they haven't scored  

more than three goals in a playoff game since  when? Since when? Game four of the Tampa series!

They have a core four of forwards who can't  score. “Oh a couple of them scored-” the  

combo doesn't work! “It'd be nice if someone  else stepped up” It would be nice! You know  

Kerfoot scored six points in seven games against  Montreal?! AH! You wasted that?! The - it doesn't,  

the mix doesn't work. It doesn't work. One of  them goes down with injuries, you're dead or  

they're playing short-handed at the end of the  season or you don't have a goalie! Or or or you  

got to play short-handed to sign Knies at the  end of the season and all these cap gymnastics  

and LTIR and university goalies and all this stuff  over the years! The mix. Doesn't. Work. When have  

they all been on at the same time?! How is this  team's problem, their consistent overarching theme  

problem GOAL SCORING?! It's because THE MIX.  DOESN’T WORK. With my entire chest it doesn't  

work! STOP! Stop. It has to stop. It could be any  of them, it could be more than one of them. The  

list has to be JT who's going into his final year  and Marner who's going into his final year. Has  

to be. Now, the fingerprints of this go back to  Dubas. He signed those guys to big money, and they  

were going to age into their contracts, they were  going to get better and better and better and the  

cap was going to go up and up and up. The world  stopped! The world stopped and the cap stayed  

flat. And then something happened. 2020 bubble.  Leaf took a - Leafs took a step backwards heading  

into COVID then they win the Canadian Division  and blow a 3-1 series lead to Montreal! That was  

it! That was the moment! Hindsight is 2020, we  all wondered! We all wondered if that was the  

moment to blow it up! And now we know it was! It  was! And who's been there the whole time? “Steve,  

you're talking about Dubas, they can't fire Dubas  again!” No but they can fire the guy who hired  

him. Brendan Shanahan, was hired in April of 2014!  10 years ago, it's a long time ago a little over  

10 years ago. And he took that team from bad bad  bad bad bad so bad to drafting William Nylander,  

that was his first first round pick, and  Mitch Marner the next year, and Auston  

Matthews the next year and that is the core. And in 2017 they go to the playoffs and they play  

the President's Trophy winning Washington Capitals  and they make it interesting and five of the six  

games go to overtime, the Leafs had a 2-1 series  lead and the Leafs go to overtime on home ice,  

they had a one-nothing lead in overtime  game uh and lost 2-1 in overtime to uh lose  

that game as well, but they get there and I was  there! Game six I was there they lose the series!  

We cheered them off the ice because of how magical  that season was and how low the expectations  

were - it's okay it's okay, don't worry about  it, nothing was expected of them anyway. And then  

the next year the Leafs take on who? The Boston  Bruins! Again! The Bruins had a 3-1 series lead  

again! The Leafs force 7 again! They had a third  period lead again! And the Bruins win anyway! They  

didn't even need overtime for it. They kind of  kicked the Leafs up and down the ice in the third  

period but what do we expect of them? What do we  - it's only year two! It's year two. Next year the  

Leafs are going to be better, Leafs are going  to be better and they get the Bruins again oh  

here's redemption and the least win game one oh  Bruins tied up the Leafs win game three, oh the  

Bruins tied up the least win game five and it was  a tight one and it literally saved Mike Babcock's  

job! Leafs lose game six horribly on home ice,  and get destroyed in game seven. And now okay,  

we start to ask some questions but like, it's  the Bruins and they're a really good team,  

and we'll get them next time. And then it's 2020  and you're one of only two teams to have home  

ice advantage because the playoffs are only being  played in two buildings, and you couldn't even win  

a best of five against the Columbus Blue Jackets?!  And then the next year you wipe the FLOOR with the  

Canadian Division and you got a 3-1 series lead  over the Montreal Canadiens - ah choke! It's the  

biggest choke probably in team history! Name  a worst one “Oh 2013 Boston Bruins!” No! No,  

that team shouldn't have been in game seven, it  was another 3-1 series lead that the Bruins blew,  

Leafs had a 4-1 lead, yes, it had never been done  before, a three-goal lead in the third period  

getting blown, yes - teams should have never never  been there, never been there. Go back and watch  

that game, I've actually gone back and watched  it you can't believe that series went seven,  

how bad that team is even leading up to them  getting the 4-1 lead! That team sucked! They  

were brutal! 2021? Ew. “Well they didn't have  John Tavares” they didn't have him the whole  

way up to 3-1! It started the moment game  five began, they sucked. They continued to  

stink. They rallied back and then they blew it in  overtime. All right! Well game six, they stink,  

they rally back ,they blow it in overtime and in  game seven they stink it's their worst game of the  

series. Alright 2022 against a Tampa Bay Lightning  and your force game seven and goar Eric Furlatt,  

who is a ref in this game, calls the pick on  Justin Holl and oh no! The Leafs lose 2-1 in  

overtime but as Sheldon Keefe so eloquently put  it “there is respect in that handshake line!”  

And somehow things still stay together! And then  the next year, this is going to be hilarious, wait  

for it, wait for it, they finally win a playoff  series but then they lose in five. It's Florida,  

they went to the Stanley Cup Final but Kyle Dubas  has a bad press conference and he gets fired! Five  

weeks before the draft and five or six weeks  before Mitch Marner's no move kicks in! So they  

bring in Brad Treliving they're like “Here you go  Brad, here's like the most difficult job in hockey  

can you make all the decisions immediately?” And  he's like “All right but my old uh team won't  

let me uh even be on the floor until like pick 17  because they're weird (they're so weird the Flames  

are really weird) and they won't let me do that  so can I like do stuff?” And uh he didn't end up  

doing stuff, he made a bunch of weird free agent  signings some of them went well some of them went  

very not well - John Klingberg. Some of them were  John Klingberg all right? And he got put on LTIR.  

Brendan Shanahan was there for ALL OF IT.  That's why I just went through that whole  

diatriad. “Well maybe this year no maybe  next year no maybe next year no maybe next  

year no maybe next year no maybe next year  no maybe next year no maybe this year NO!”

If it seems like I'm laying it on a little  thick I just told you the amount of times  

the Leafs have blown it under this guy! There's a  new CEO at Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment.  

Yes the Leafs make a lot of money if they make  the playoffs and yes the Leafs always make the  

playoffs, if they ever won the Stanley Cup they  could buy the moon! And they could win the Spacely  

Cup every year, being the only team on the moon!  “Oh but the media pressure on the moon is” It's  

-they’re the only team! So he's gone so there  it is already one or two members of the core  

are gone. The president of the team is gone. And  here's Sheldon Keefe after a game seven defeat  

“Sheldon obviously was a tight series on both  sides from your team's perspective. What was the  

biggest challenge generating offense? *deep sigh*  Well it's I mean they're a very structured team.  

You know. They're they do a very good job to the  neutral zone and they protect their net as well,  

uh or better than most any team in the NH.  And there was, they were content to do that,  

you know, they were content to do that it's,  you know it's it's very evident teams play the  

Leafs they they they they set up the game for the  Leafs to beat themselves.” …No, no your internet  

hasn't frozen. I'm still just - WHAT? Oh my,  oh my, I I can't tell if that's a bar or if  

he was fired before this press conference began!  Never mind referring to the Leafs as the Leafs,  

uh as if he's not of of them. Sheldon Keefe  just signed an extension. It's two years.  

Maple Leafs sports and entertainment has a  lot of money. He's gone, like in a few days  

I'll be making a video on this channel about  how Sheldon Keefe is fired. Dude this was a  

chess match of a series. Bruins had the better  goalie for sure, they shut down all the Leafs  

forwards and they're not even interesting. The  Bruins are not even interesting in the fact that  

they shut down the Leafs forwards. Like yes they  played a crazy smothering game, they were great  

in the neutral zone, they were great in front of  their net, and they got the saves when they needed  

it. That's every team the Leafs play! The weird  thing about the Tampa series is we're like “damn  

they're scoring goals!” and they won by the way!  And the power play! Worked! In that one series.

This core can't do it of their own volition right?  Since they have become men like they lost with  

Mike Babcock when they were boys, they've become  men and they have lost for half a decade with this  

guy. Babcock taught them some things and they  were useful. Keefe has taught them some things,  

and they were useful. Nope! We're done here! We're  done here. Don't have anything against the guy,  

dude you got to bring in a new voice  there. A new head voice. A new head coach.  

And there are SO many available. You got to bring  them in. So that is what is at stake here, that's  

what's happening over the next little while.  The core is getting blown to smithereens. One  

or more of them are gone. The President I'm fairly  confident is gone. Sheldon Keefe the head coach,  

I'm fairly confident is gone. It's not out of  the question that Sheldon Keefe will be fired,  

Brendan Shanahan will be fired, Mitch Marner will  be traded, John Tavares will be traded or bought  

out or something, TJ Brodie ain't coming back.  Ilya Samsonov ain't coming back. Will Max Domi  

be back? We'll see. Will Tyler Bertuzzi be back?  We'll see. This team is not bad. You need to be  

good to make the playoffs. You need to be good  to go to game seven overtime with Boston. But  

one thing I know for damn sure is this team is  not great. If they were, we wouldn't be having  

this conversation. If they weren't, we wouldn't  be having this conversation every single year.  

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today  to mourn the loss (or rejoice depends who  

you ask) of this incarnation of the Toronto Maple  Leafs. It was a neat idea. It worked for a time.  

Some stuff happened. They didn't adjust. Some time  passed and nothing got better! 16. You need to win  

16 games to win the Stanley Cup. They get those  pucks, they put them in that little wooden thing. 

You got to take those pucks. You're not giving  those pucks, you got to take them from your  

opponent and this year the Leafs matched their  their second highest total since uh Shanahan  

became the president of this team of the Matthews  and Marner and Nylander era, the Leafs match their  

second highest total of play wins with THREE!  It's over. “Oh they're always in a series,  

they're always tight” They always lose! Last year  was their best year by far because they actually  

won a series, they won five games! You triple  the win total, you're a game short! It's over.  

It's done. Now obviously, I'm not done making  content. I might need a couple days to get my  

voice back. We are going to be doing a brand  new Steve dangle podcast tomorrow on sdpn,  

highly suggest you go to that channel, you click  like and you click subscribe and you tell all  

your friends. When any of those things that  I mentioned happened, if someone gets traded,  

or signed, or bought out, or fired, I'll be making  a video for it on this channel. We'll be all over  

it on sdpn. Adam Wylde is going to be streaming  the Vancouver Canucks Edmonton Oilers series and  

sdpn is going to be streaming the Boston Bruins,  Florida Panthers series because torture. I'm  

dripping sweat down my neck. I I am going to be  streaming that series, I don't know if I'm going  

to be doing game one. I'm tired. I need, I need  a couple days off. And this team needs a shakeup.  

There's no ifs ands or buts about it. Whatever  you think the problem is, has been the problem for  

too long. It's hard to let go of a good team. It's  really hard to let go of a good team. But it's all  

in the pursuit of greatness. And it keeps eluding  them. For now that is it for this season of LFR,

Oh. I still am holding out hope for the  day that it finally happens because these  

things are going to make it so worth it. I just  have no idea when that day is going to show up.
