I missed Hurricans man so much

*PLEASE COME TO OUR GAMES!!!*

he made it so funny

RAAAAALLLEIIIIIGGGGHHHH!

F the hub *THE ONLY THING YOU SHOULD BE COMING TO IS OUR GAMES*

Especially me, a Flames fan

"We warned you" - Wings fans

Me, who started supporting out of sympathy for when they made Chiarelli GM, "It can't get any worse, right?"

Why hasn’t he been fired yet?

We all saw it coming. Look what Holland did to the Wings. That Abdelkader contract was an albatross. Hyman = New Abdelkader

100% clowning Holland and the Oilers

I think 5% good moves is a bit too high.

You forgot Lou Lamoriello operating on a different time scale than everyone else!

100% brass bonanza

The Drama is pretty sad

are you ready... LITERAL CANCER!!! (Tony DeAngelo) I nearly lost my sides laughing at that.

We ended up fine tho

we in game 7 against the rags

@@Galactic_Cabbage we lost

@@filmmallard3558 I know

They're hoping to have some nice Hedgehog Stew out of the cup this year.

I hate that Wilson!

The Rangers/James Dolan are trying to catch THAT HEDGEHOG- i mean Tom Wilson lol

@@Yomasi Tom Wilson! SnooPINGAS usual, I SEE!...

There’s talk that most comedy acts wear out their welcome real quick. Somehow Buffalo is the equivalent of an abusive relationship with its fanbase that only gets funnier and more popular Edit: As a Sens fan I have also moved beyond the anger and sadness and simply desire chaos

Considering GM's are doing what they are doing knowing that it's a 5-7 year flat cap a lot of teams will be joining you in disaster.

Hey, at least we have Josh Allen for 7 more seasons...

No. They just all know if they wait the Pegulas will either force Kevyn Adams to make a trade or fire him for someone that will do as they say. Adams has repeatedly said he didn't want to trade anyone. The Pegulas said trade or have fun on unemployment. In the end hopefully just like the Bills they get bored and let Adams do his job. The Sabres could use the GM actually making the decisions. It is obvious they tripped into Granato being a genius that reminded Middlestat he isn't a trash player and reminding Dahlin he is not a defensive defenseman. He even tripped into Cozens not being crap just needing a little bit of work to develop completely. Unfortunately they'll have to deal with Eichel being the last piece of the core going. The only upside is Thompson turns out to not be crap, but he is only gonna to be a middle 6 player not top line. God I fucking hate the Pegulas. They had a team handed to them on a silver platter and now they are pushing everyone of value out. Fuck it burn it and start over

Eventually the Pegulas will want the Bills back and it will be back to a dumpster fire

@@brendensergent5382 Only thing in that entire passage I don’t agree with is Thompson. He sucks and I highly doubt he ever figures out how to be effective

That’s exactly why people shouldn’t be so quick to judge Ristolainen for his bad-looking nerd stats. We’ll see how he does in Philly on the second pairing when he isn’t responsible for shutting down entire opposing first lines by himself.

@@philly_sports1558 Jake McCabe was actually more of the shutdown guy on the pair, and he was much better at it than risto was

I wish I was making Seth Jones' contract lol.

@@UrinatingTree We all would my friend. We all can only Wish we could.

😂

As a columbus fan who thought he was ok i am laughing at this a bit.

@@UrinatingTree nah with your talent you at least deserve mcdavid money with skinner term

He's a HOCKEY GOD that hasn't ascended yet.

At what point of the video did he cover the wings

@@eggrollboy5 27:06 - 27:30

I mean who doesnt fleece holland

No need for panic. Kaprizov is preparing to play with us and will sign soon enough. The khl thing is just a leverage move by his agent it’s nothing new

Absolutely

You got that right, all I want to see happen tbh. It will be the greatest hockey achievement of our lifetimes.

You're in for a treat, the hurricane man voice is a (rare) reoccurring joke in Tree's NHL videos

release the kraken! caps fan here but excited to see how they play opening day

@@cacawsthelaw Thanks for the support, Caps fan. How do you feel about having Vitek Vanecek back on your roster?

Two more months and we have regular season hockey. 8 and a half months until the postseason begins.

@@justinnzamora5366 i sure do want to go to a caps game and see vitek vanecek in goal wink wink

I already want that to happen, you guys have started out likeable, hope it stays that way. Signed, An Avs fan that lives on Vancouver island and wouldn’t mind a ‘home’ team 😉

So insulting. I can walk and chew gum. I can watch a team win or lose while remembering Brad Aldrich’s name.

Me, a fellow Blackhawks fan: Yeah we're fucked for a while :/

@@dbeast03 Also me: At least Johnathan Toews and Patrick Kane are coming back.... right?

Me: Seth Jones is going be good????

We don't even need them back, as much as I love them, we've needed either a hard push or a hard rebuild for a while, and as time goes on, the rebuild seems like the best option 100%, and idk if the hawks would keep Kane and Toews around through that.

@@dbeast03 ion think they'd keep then around thru that either, i just wanna see them both on the ice at the same time for at least half a year more.

amen

Amen 🙏

@@HAA0603 hasn't it been like 14 years since the wings made the playoffs? lol

Thx decided to rewatch

They've learned nothing from Jim Rutherford

At least we aren't Edmonton?

Marian Hossa 2.0 if the Habs meet the lightning again in the playoffs

The Kevin Durant of Hockey.

@@666kingdrummer Well he at least won a ring with his original team

"We need a gritty playmaker to replace Blake Coleman and Barclay Goodrow." "Say no more I'm tired of losing to you guys anyway."

@@pottytheparrot310 By that logic, the Habs will beat the Lightning in the Finals this year.

I messaged him on Twitter and sent the clip to him. His edit is way better than mine was though. Very cool!

5:44

Staal produced even less PPG in Montreal(.1429) than he did in Buffalo(.3125). Not a good example.

I've liked him since he was on the kings, he's always been underrated until recently. To get that save percentage in front of THAT D core is insane, I think he'll be more than a consolation prize for losing Grub

@@jameskilgour387 oh yeah, I mean obviously hope he can stay healthy but he was infuriating to play against when the avs played them in the bubble. And the be completely honest totally forgot he was on the kings

I used to be a Coyotes fan. Kuemper was literally the only good part of the team. There was probably 40+ complete defensive breakdowns leading to easy one-timers per game, but Kuemper kept making the saves to keep the team in the game. I’m sure the Avalanche will like him.

@@captaiawesome2260 oh yeah, like once again I remember that series and until games 4 and 5 it was insane. I just want to the avs to make it to the third round. Lol

You made the best of a tough situation. Hopefully the Avs dont become Capitals 2.0. Astounding how the Yotes have had arguable the best off-season by a team not named Tampa or New Jersey.

why tho

@@bvrdt Because they’ve made the playoffs and missed the playoffs every year for the last decade. They only make the playoffs in even years and suck in odd years. Need to make this year count.

@@philly_sports1558 I get that looking at past history of this team makes it seem like there's a pattern, but there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that they will make the playoffs this year nor miss them the year after that. We'll just have to wait and see, same as always.

Better luck next year?

@@ObtuseMoose Not even the even year devil magic can save this team.

Yep

Actually, Tree has been pretty lenient with the Devils over the last few videos, even at times when I thought he should have really ripped into them. I'm beginning to think he's secretly a fan or something.

I liked the Devil's moves too! I hope Subban and Johnsson can kind of bounce back with more talent around them this year. I loved Andreas on the Leafs so if you can get that version of the player it'd help.

Best of luck not scoring on your own goal too often this year!

Agreed, plus with the gallant signing he's a far better coach than that poor excuse that we had with quinn. The rangers have no excuses this time, they have the talent and now it's time to put it to use

The Rangers have to show that they aren't just going to score against the Flyers, Sabres, and Devils from last season. Their entire RW core is unproven and their D is going to regress having to play other teams not from Philly, Buffalo, and Jersey. And their bottom six sounds good on paper but they're not going to score enough to offset their defensive capabilities.

It's all about how the young guys develop. We have to see if Lafreniere can take the next step and this year Kakko has to show us something. Anything

Not a Rangers fan here, but I'm eyeing them sideways this upcoming season for sure. I really feel like you should have far more faith in them this year. They're going back to the playoffs and it's not just to get back in 'em, it's gonna be for much more. I really feel like the rebuild is pretty much over, ~maybe~ they're one piece short, I dunno.

@@ozma6918 So who's scoring for them? And what roles will the 3rd and 4th lines have? Lafreniere, Kakko, and Kravtsov haven't earned the kudos just yet. Oh, and their defense as a defense is a tire fire.

Some of the contracts being signed now will be viewed the same way in a few season. Not the Jones contract though lmao, as a CBJ fan that has watched him for half a decade now. Some hockey fans are way to quick to call contracts overpayments and fans are always a few years behind on what players are actually worth. The Drai contract is a great example of that, it was an "overpayment" compared to what players got in prior seasons but good GMs offer contracts looking to the future, not the past. The Garland, Werenski, and Hamilton contracts are going to look really good in a couple seasons, especially after the salary cap starts rising again. Armchair GMs are at their wost when talking about recent contracts.

@@tsarXadam the reason why people are hard on the contracts is because guys are getting huge extensions coming off of bad if not terrible seasons at more AAV than they were worth when they were in their prime, let alone coming off such a horrid season Seth Jones is a prime example of this. Zach Werenski had a better 2021 season than 2020 season on a team that had nearly all its players regress… and yet Jones got the same as Werenski did but for longer term???????? Werenski is also younger but i digress. Point being, a guy like Draisaitl came off a good season. Darnell Nurse is inconsistent defensively and had his numbers boosted by playing with the best player on the planet and the aforementioned Draisaitl. Cody Ceci is much less extreme but had his offensive stats boosted by playing with arguably the 2nd best player in the world, gets a 4 year extension worth $2M more than he’s worth. It’s not like these guys HAD to overpay. Hell, Jones and Nurse have a year left. They didn’t even hit the market ffs. I love the Garland, Buchnevich, Carlo, Pelech contracts just to name a few. It goes to show that you don’t have to overpay to get good players lol. Might as well give up a 1st or two to get 2-3 years of an elite defenseman in their PRIME (since that’s what everyone is overpaying for) instead of giving an okay defenseman $3M more than he’s worth over the course of the next 8 years… Free agency market is where teams have died in the past. Almost never does a team “win” by signing the best free agent. The only real one I can think of was Marian Hossa, but what he did was take less money on a per year basis and instead sign for like 12 years or whatever it was. It was shown with the Nuge contract as well. You get good value early but pay a price later once Father Time catches up. Nuge isn’t that type of 200 foot player like Hossa was so he probably won’t get ruined by injury but the same concept applies. Panarin lived up to his value (somehow) but it’s not like the Rangers care about winning. Teams win by trading assets for players that have value for their contracts. You don’t get value signing top end free agents to long term deals when they’re 30 and at bloated AAVs. Unless you’re the Oilers or Blackhawks, you can just pay the free agency tax on CRACK before they even sniff free agency. Brilliant. Why I wrote a paragraph about this I don’t know

UFA vs RFA though.

It fits with anything

september couldnt be farther way

I've been saying it since the trade happened: the Rangers fans who are happy about this move are forgetting how slow and sloppy Micheal Haley was... just two years ago. They don't have the best memory.

And then everyone in the league complained about Sean Avery... Heheh

kinda hard when it's called Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment.

To sell something requires a buyer. Who the hell would be willing to pay up what these egotistical owners would demand?

@@megarockman Maybe the fans would dictate the terms. After all, The Green Bay Packers are owned by the fans.

@@ShadowFalcon19 And...? You do realize that the Maple Leafs and Rangers aren't the Packers, right?

@@FuckKZfaqAndGoogle Here is what I'm trying to say: Maybe the Maple Leafs and Rangers need to be owned by the fans of those teams instead of people out of touch with the fanbase.

At least they brought in Ryan Reaves to kick his ass some more.

Honestly I love Wilson. He's such an amazing villain, and look what he's done. With just one dirty hit he can kill franchises. He's what every goon ever has aspired to be.

@@philly_sports1558 Can't fight anyone when you can't even get ice time. Also "kick his ass" yeah, no.

@@christianholbrook2686 one dirty hit? Dude did you even see what he did? That was way more than just a "dirty hit" lmfao

@@NelsonA_ Panarin jumped on his back, don't start shit you can't finish.

Idk about Kampf honestly, but as far as Kase and Ritchie are concerned, they'll be useless come the postseason which is exactly what the Leafs don't need more of.

While I agree they haven't done anywhere near enough to instill me with enough confidence to watch them before they make the second round in the future. If they even win a round and/or make the playoffs. The East is extremely stacked with good teams compared to the West not to mention there's no way they get home ice advantage although that didn't mean diddle squat last year so.... I just can't see the Leafs ending up above Tampa or Florida and they will probably be fighting with Boston and Montreal for the last division/wildcard spot and if they end up as a wild card they'll have to face Tampa, who they aren't going to win a round against or one of Washington, Pittsburgh, the Islanders or Carolina who will make the Leafs fight for their lives to win a couple of games let alone a round.

As a leafs fan I don’t give a shit about their moves or anything they do this year. If they make it past round 2 and/or actually beat real teams without relying on luck to get there, then they might win my full fandom back.

That's a funny way of saying diaster.

The reaction to the Werenski contract reminds me of how people reacted to the Draisaital contract. I'm a CBJ fan and anyone who has actually watched Werenski would know that's a fair value contract for what he currently brings and he's only 24 with plenty of room to grow; he's already elite offensively and average defensively, the latter of which has improved every season he's been in the league. I'm super excited to see what he can do now that he isn't in Jones' shadow (and being dragged down by him).

Plus anybody that leaves Buffalo ends up flourishing

Main problem is if he does break out, they're gonna have to do even more cap gymnastics to resign him.
