How many times did I just hear Minnesota being called a city?

I think Steve needs to schedule a visit to the Minnesota State Fair next year.

Steve thanks for ruining my day within a minute by saying Zadina has Darren as his agent and Athanasiou

The Ferris wheel 🎡 😂

Missed the Boeser signing in classic podcast fashion.

Conspiracy theory: (sometime in July) Kyle: Hey Mitch. Would you accept something in the 6-7 year range between 10-11 million. Mitch: Yes for sure! Kyle: Ok we will hammer this out on day one of camps and screw over other teams waiting on us. Mitch: OK! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee (Clinking of Mountain Dew filled glasses) End scene

You guys should purchase little dry erase boards so we can see your writtten answers during trivia.

You guys should’ve talked about the Malkin/Kessel thing

Two 2-hour podcasts in a row, I love and hate it since I can only download them if they're under 2 hours.

For the love of Steve dangle its Steve dangle everybody

Awesome interview again guys. Super interesting

awesome title. made me chuckle.

Ohh boy this one is going to be a good one

Should have went with "Mitchie Rich"

Adam, as Shoeshine wrote earlier, expansion fee is NOT shared by the players. Thats why Vegas' expansion fee did not count towards the cap.

Just seeing this and now I’m not gonna sleep

The "B" bonuses being included in Mitch's contract that weren't in his ELC is NOT a selling point in this contract and people including Steve and Adam. It's not like he's getting back-pay, that's not allowed. They are saying part of his raise is money he should have got the last year. What if your boss offered you a fair new contract, and said "yeah we lied to you in your last contract and gave you less than your co-worker who does the same job, but part of the new raise we are giving you is the money we should have gave you last year". You would not be happy because they should not be giving you money from your last contract in your new contract. That would have to be outside your new contract which isn't allowed in the CBA. When the rumour of 7 x 11 came out with the group B bonuses, it wasn't going to be 7 x 11 + the bonuses he should have got the last 3 years (lets say 1.5 million). It would be more like 1 x 9.5 + 1.5mil bonus and then the last 6 years being 11mil. So no extra money is going his way, it's just being disguised as his raise.

Also McAvoy couldn’t be offer sheeted.

breaking nic petan named captain

Adam, I love listening you sarcastically tear into Darren Ferris on the pods. You don't get to go through that whole playbook and then magically reshape the narrative. They decided to squeeze every dollar which opened Mitch to unnecessary negativity.

Minnesota giving an offer sheet ill bet is a bold face lie . Convenient for Marners agent to claim after the Wild having 2 different GM's this summer . I say nonsense

How does this Channel have less than 100k subs? I don’t understand... I feel like there are people out there who aren’t telling all their friends.🤨

Boeser just signed lol

As a Red Wings fan, I was definitely enjoying it, but to be fair I wanted Mitch to sign before training camp with the Leafs too.

1:25:38 what if you research the people what they want in their bread first before you buy the grocery store and farm? How fluffy/firm? Do they want raisins or anything addition? Thin or thick slice? is it really reasonable to sell bread without knowing what their target market wants?

wasn't it the LTIR that decided when he could sign?

FUNGLED This should be a word.

Expansion fee thing is true. That money gets split among owners. It doesn’t go into the league funds. And, funnily enough, for some reason: Vegas owner doesn’t get a cut either.

No matter how much Marner improves or the cap goes up, it's still an overpay, because he's been paid more than other comparable RFA's who signed the similar term. For example, Sebastian Aho makes 8.5 for 5. Even if Marner ends up being way better than Aho, its still an overpay because he should've gotten a similar contract to Aho, because at this moment in time they are similar players, unless you have some other metric that we don't know about that can predict Marner is 3M/year better than Aho. You can't argue that he should be paid for the player he will become if other equal players are not being paid for it either. And if the cap goes up, it goes up for every team, so the Hurricanes get the cap bump PLUS an extra 3 mil. they saved on Aho. No matter what happens, if its an overpay now, it will always be an overpay.

They could do similar to the AIHL and create a KZfaq streaming model. It's not TSN/Sportsnet, but it can look very professional if done correctly. As for the physicality in womens hockey - the no contact rules are being fazed out since the athletes are in far better shape and more skilled now than a decade ago. If the idea is to have a WNHL featuring the best on the planet, than competition will be fierce. Anyways, great interview with Liz and I like the pod.

The idea that a child’s hero has to be the same gender as them is a little strange.

"Rich Marner"! Great title!

These guys really think Minnesota is a city 😂😂😂

Foreshadowing the Marner trade....

jesus christ jesse, the intro is loud!!! My poor ears =(

WHat happened to the Time Stamps? And how is no one else mentioning this lmao

How can you not imagine him saying he deserves something or was upset or insulted? I can. He’s 22

How many of the women’s players get scholarships for school? Canada/USA players that play at this high level?

The leafs cup window is one year now

5/5 episode name

1:20:00

As long as marner produces like an 11 mill $ man his entire career I’ll have no issue with it

Minnesota is a state

I heard the same

Steve pLEASE COME BACK TO COLUMBUS

Every Saturday they should put a girls game on in the afternoon before hockey night.

I mean anyone whi has Marner on their team is lucky lol

First aww

Why did you have to come after Wings fans like that bro? Much hurtful friend :(

So if a team makes an offer for point of 12 million Tampa is fucked if he accepts it because they can't match. There's no way they can make that happen. Not only is it the 12 million AAV you have the issue of the front loading because the season has officially started.

R16TH MARNER

Mitch Money

im too early -_- no comments to comment on -_-

I'm a hockey fan & I'm a woman, but I have no interest in women's hockey. I watched the US play Canada on TV during the PyeongChang Olympics. The women's game lacks the skill, speed & physicality of the men's game, especially in international play with the larger ice surface. I find the boys World Junior Championship more exciting than women's hockey. I can't imagine how entitled you have to be to believe you are owed a living wage to do what you love even though it is clear it is not financially viable just because you are a woman. I am sure there are plenty of men out there who would love to make a living playing professional hockey but are not good enough to earn a spot on an AHL or NHL roster and must earn a living doing something else. No one demands a professional league that pays a living wage & provides healthcare benefits be set up for them. Does someone owe it to those men to create a league where they will be paid a living wage to do what they love? If there is not enough interest in the women's game to sustain a professional league in hockey mad Canada, how can you expect to sustain a pro league in the US, where NHL hockey is (unfortunately) a distant 4th to football, basketball & baseball? I hear a lot of people who support the creation of a national women's league state that the NHL should step in & create/run a WNHL, much like the NBA created the WNBA. But the WNBA has not turned a profit in a single season since its creation & only continues to exist because the NBA is willing to operate it at a loss. Fans of Canadian NHL teams, including Steve Dangle & Adam Wylde, have pointed out many times that teams like the Leafs are subsidizing teams in nontraditional hockey markets that do not generate enough revenue to break even. So why then, on top of that, should the NHL create a separate league for women that will cost more for the NHL to run than it will generate in revenue or profits? Can the NHL, which has only started to catch up with the NFL, MLB & NBA in terms of revenue within the last decade, afford to take on what is likely to be a feel-good vanity project that may never pay for itself? And let's say the NHL were to step in & create a women's pro league. These players want to be paid a living wage, but have any of them come out & said what they believe to be a "living wage"? Is it $30k USD/season? $40k? $30k per player per season on a 20 player roster is $600k per season, not including healthcare. If there's 7 teams (5 in US & 2 in Canada like NWHL has proposed) that's $4.2 million per season in player salary alone! I've heard a lot from these players who are boycotting about what they feel they deserve, but I haven't heard a single feasible proposal from them about how to make it happen economically. It's all well & good to have dreams, but if no one is willing to pay you to live your dream, it's time to grow up & find a new one - just like all of those boys who dreamed of playing in the NHL but weren't good enough to play professionally.

More of Adam being the hole.

ABC, NBC, CBS, and NPR.

Wondering if Ms Dangle bought him NHL 20 and he just doesn't realize it

Enough with Womens hockey.. jeeessuss

Toronto femalepleleafs ayo

The black dude (Jesse i think) is completely asleep (browsing internet, walking off, etc, etc) in the Knox segment! If I was Knox I would say why would I play for your team, when you dont even contribute to my segment!

boys!!!! @JesseBlake @Steve_Dangle @AdamWylde if you guys get me some 36"pads and some gear, i will totally play goalie for any team, but i'd rather play for you or the 2nd team if you really need a goalie. i lost my gear in moving and have been playing for over 20 years. i should be leafs back up lmfao.... no joke lol hit me up

4 first round picks from the wild I would take that any day over marner and his ridiculous 11 mill cap hit

Full speculation: what of the cap didnt go up for the NHL so they can start putting money aside to help with a women's league?

When are you guys going to address the fact that Babcock has to go

5th

jesus christ marner signed move on 44 mins in and they havent talked about anything else

Women's hockey fans are sparse. Till more fans get on board women's hockey will not be sustainable. I personally think it's a boring product.

why the shade toward my Red Wings, you still got to sign a "D" next year

Lol cmon Steve, not very nice to say Minnesota sucks when they've had more playoff success than the leafs of late, in arguably a harder division. I get you're a leafs fan, and so am I, but lets not pretend they've done shit yet...

Did u guys see babs and Matthew's have beef babs has to go if 34 is going to stay

Can we stop with the women’s hockey. It’s annoying and no one gives a shit. Hence why what happened happened.

Can Jesse pls just not have a mic. He never has any idea what he’s talking about and has never admitted to getting something wrong. He’ll just redirect it to make it sound like he got it right and it’s sad
