  Speaker 5: this right now. I'm joined now by Al Kaniski, who
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: I think is just digesting dinner just like me.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Al, How is the food today?
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, food was fantastic. It's the best part of Father's Day.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: You get to pick everything, all right, Well what was
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: on the menu? Started the day with a fantastic breakfast
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: out of the local eatery had had some Mexican actually
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: for breakfast. It's delicious. Oof continued on with some some
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: coffee delicious mocha, and then finished the day at home
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: with the family with a great meal of chili peanut
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: butter pasta, finished with some fresh strawberries and some bourbon
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: infused whipping cream.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: Oh, how do you do bourbon infus whipping cream? I've
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: always been curious about this. It is a great dessert
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: additive I've read well.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I mean when you make whipping cream, if you do
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: it inside the canister with the co two cartridge, you
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: could put this about anything that's liquid in there. And
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: you know, little goes a long way, but a little
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: bit more is even better.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: Glad the family enjoyed that. In the middle of me
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: making breakfast, this is when the McMahon trade broke. I
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: was outdoors backyard on the Blackstone cooking up pancakes. By
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: the way, folks go ahead and google banana bread chocolate pancakes.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, unbelievable.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: And then tonight, of course the usual steak Rabbi my favorite,
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: my dad's mac and cheese that was passed down to
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: me as well. We had that on the menu. Also
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: saw ted mushrooms. The kids enjoyed the steak. The kids
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: enjoyed the mac and cheese. We made some corn as well.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: They were happy campers. So we can call this a
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: pretty good day. But see a pretty decent day here
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: in Crack and Roster. LAMB will first off begin and
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: with the biggest news of the day that folks were
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: waiting on pins and needles four for weeks. Bobby McMahon
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: is back, six year deal again. As we said, five
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: point seventy five million dollars annually. Last year he hit
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: thirty goals. This contract will carry him until age thirty six.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: He's a self made player, never drafted. He finally got
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: his pay day. And when you talk about five point
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: seventy five million dollars, that's a pretty good take on
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: the crack inside.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I went and looked this up.
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: It's one hundred and ninety first right now in the
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: NHL as far as ranked contracts, So you're getting a
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: pretty good value as far as I'm concerned. Al the
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: meaning of Bobby McMahon once again back in the crack
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: in Jersey for six more years.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Take it away, Well, we had a taste of Bobby
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: mcmah at the end of the season, and after ten games,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I think we were all looking at each other going
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: we got to find a way to keep this guy
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: on the team. He was right fit in the locker room,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: he was a great fit on the ice. He they
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: broke some records in his first ten games, putting up points.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: His speed. I mean, it's such a big impact just
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: that attribute alone, not to mention his finish around the net,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: in his physical play. So definitely the kind of guy
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: you want to see stick around, and I'm glad to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: see that Jason Bottle and the team were able to
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: come to an agreement with them on meeting both sides
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and getting a guy that I think will be a
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: perpetual top six player for the next five seasons.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: I think it was pretty clear that ten goals in
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: eighteen games was enough to tell you and others about
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: a fit for him in a Crack in Jersey and
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: pretty apparent that this team wanted him, they needed him.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Once the season was over, they took him on a
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: golf recruiting trip, and of course social media I thought
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: told a big part of the story with how much
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: he was enjoying Seattle. Go back and find his Instagram
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: accounties got stuff all over the place ever since this
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: last season ended. But I think when you find a
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: guy who wants to be here, a guy who also
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: has played under Lane Lambert, he knows him, he understands him.
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: The transition was seamless, it was flawless, it was smooth.
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: But I go right back here to the point when
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: you find guys who want to be here, This is
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: how you reverse course from four of the first five
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: years of missing the postseason. When you want to change
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: the game in your own room, you find guys who
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: want to be here by choice, and guys who can
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: make major contributions to be here by choice.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I'll get to the totals here.
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: In just a bit, But to get him in, since
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: I think a pretty significant statement, we're looking for more
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: guys like that if you're cracking management, who buy in
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: just like him and can produce also like him.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, super intelligent guy too. You know, you hear him talk.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: We've hit a chance to speak to him one to
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: one and he's spoken off the cuff a few times.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Very intelligent player away from the game, let alone the
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: game itself. You know. So you bring a lot from
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: that standpoint. But like you said, a guy that wants
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: to be here, a guy that's malleable, meaning you know,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: he doesn't have to have a certain kind of guy
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: on his line for him to have success. Put him
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: with Maddy Benieers, put him with Coppo Cockle, put him,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: put him wherever. He's going to make those little two
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: guys in his line better, better hockey players, which I love.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: He's thirty years of age, and it's usually said that
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: players kind of hit their peek a little bit before that,
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: and on average it is a decline of the steady
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: variety right after that.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: But here's what I.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Think says McMahon apart here from the average NHL player,
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: he's always looking to get better. We've had our conversations
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: with him, and I just think that for a guy
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: who knows how much it takes to make the NHL,
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: and not just make it, but stick in the NHL,
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: it's a pretty strong testimony when you can come from
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: a background where you're undrafted out of Colgate, you begin
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: in the EHL.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Then make your way all the way to the NHL.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: Complacency is not in this guy's vocabulary, at least that's
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: from what i've read for the first you know, several
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: weeks with him being here in Seattle, so now at
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: age thirty, yet with a new contract in hand.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Thirty goals thirty five goals?
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: Is this attainable or are you looking for more of
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: twenty five to thirty around that ballpark figure?
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Oh? I absolutely see him being a thirty plus goal scorer.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, when you look at the games he played
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: at the end of the season and you start to
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: project out over an eighty four game season, now you
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: get kind of excited to see what he might be
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: able to do over that. Over that time span. Obviously,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: things kind of fall off and there's ebbs and valleys
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: to a offense over the course of the season. But
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: I see no reason, like you, why he can't be
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: a thirty plus goal scorer on this team.
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: I think also for a lot of Crack and fans,
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: this day was pretty significant. I mean, listen, We don't
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: want to overblow this thing, like you know, you're bringing
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: in Connor mc david, or you're bringing in one of
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: the top you know, free agents here from any kind
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: of year. But this was a move that was pretty
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: clear cut to a lot of this fan base. It
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: was an obvious move that they had to make. You
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: celebrate the steps moving ahead now with a guy like this,
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: it was pretty significant. I thought, not just here for
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: the roster, but to also inject some goodwill. And that's
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: what this fan base got, certainly with getting Bobby McMahon
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: right back in a crack in Jersey. So he's all
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: locked up now, six year deal, five point seventy five
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: million dollars, incredible value. This was a big get in
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: what was going to be a very very paper thin
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: free agent class.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I just got a.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: Whole lot thinner now with McMahon off the market and
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: choosing to be a part of the crack in long
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: term here on this six year deal. All right, before
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: that trade broke this morning, Mackie Samuskevitch, come on down.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: You are a Seattle Kraken to Florida in exchange this
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: year's first round draft pick, twenty fifth overall conditional second
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: rounder next year and whatever finished this higher. Here the
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: pick originally going to Winnipeg or Columbus from the Tanevan
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: Marchmen trades, that higher pick will go to that team
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: from this year, but then that first round pick not
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: so fast. Florida then flipped that pick for a bomb
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: shell deal this morning in Brady Kuld Chuck so Ottawa
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: has entered the chat with this crazy Sunday. Nonetheless, back
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: to Mackie Samuskevitch, who the crack can get. At one
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: point he was Florida's top prospect, and I think for
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: a trade like this out they're betting on upside. Two
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: full seasons for him in the NHL. Fifteen goals for
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: him is a career high, but yet he is young.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: He had twelve this last season. Yet he had the
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: best coursing numbers on Florida at five on five this
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: last year. He had the second best shot quality on
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: Florida at five on five this last year. The only
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: guy better you might have heard of him Matthew could Chuck.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: He's a smaller, more compact player, but he's got speed.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: He plays with a quick twitch type of style. He's
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: got a great shot as well, and a player who
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: potentially was coveted as maybe an offer sheet kind of guy.
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: But yet there's also some dressing room familiarity him for
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: him here him being a Michigan guy and guests who
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: he played with, Matty Beniers.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: So what you look at this here from what Florida gets.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: They had a bolster draft pool which they went to
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: the pool immediately and upgraded with. But yet they also
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: get cap relief here because I mean you look at
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: this with how Florida is stacked, there really was no
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: fitting Mackie Samuskevitch in their top six and potentially top
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: six is his ceiling as far as the player that
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: he can be. So you don't want to get too
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: crazy over this one. Al, But as a baseline as
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: far as change this offseason, the Krack and Haf basically said,
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: with this move, start your engines. Sam Uskevitch plays with pace,
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: his shot is lightning, quick, power play guy, and you'd
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: hope more e sign for him means more results. So, Al,
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: what kind of player do you think that they're getting here?
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: You know, Mike, when I buy a used car or
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: a used boat, I like to be the second owner.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I want to know that there haven't been five other
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: people that have used that vehicle before me. And in
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: the case of Samuskevitch, the krackaer the second owner this
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: This kid was drafted by the Florida Panthers in two
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: thousand and one, twenty fourth overall, So the crack and
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: giving up a twenty fifth first first round pick and
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: the second next year for a guy that was picked
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: in the first round. I like the fact that he's
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: twenty three. He's a young he's a young player. Let's
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: talk about his assets. You mentioned his elite skating. His
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: first three steps are fantastic. So you put him on
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: a line with Bobby McMahon, Oh my god, like you know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: up and down. Yeah, exactly. I feel bad for that
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: third four on that line. They're going to just naturally
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: become a faster skater, some high end puck skills, offensive creativity,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: his hockey senses off the charts. Lots of upside there,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: I think, you know, on his on his weaknesses, he's
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: obviously not a big guy. He's five to eleven, so
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: you're not going to expect it to see him win
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: puck battles on the boards like a Coppo Cocoa might
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: of that sort of thing. Is defensive details needs some work.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Lane Lambert will certainly drill that into him. Some finish
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: around the net needs work. But see, here's the thing.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Those those high end skills that I talked about, that skating,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: those all need to be in place when you enter
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: the NHL defensive responsibility consistency. You're not going to fix size.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Some of those things can be fixed. Some of them
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: can never be fixed. But the point is is that
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: the things that can be fixed, they will get better
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: as he gets older, and he's coming into that twenty
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: three to twenty six year old period of his career
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: where I would expect those things to get better. So, yeah,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: he had fifteen goals, a career high. I could see
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: him getting to a twenty five to thirty five goal
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: plateau very quick.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: Let's get to where sam Uskevitch fits in here for
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: this lineup, because there's just so much volatility I think
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: with this group at the stage of the offseason. I mean,
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: you go back to last game for them, game eighty
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: two at Colorado.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: You me Everett were all there.
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: Your right wingers for that game where Jordan Eberley, who's
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: still here of course, Yannie Newman, Ellie Tolvan and Ryan Winterton.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: We'll see where Toulvenan fits into this picture. You know,
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: the closer and closer we get to July one, the
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: presumption is he might be hitting the open market. You
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: have Shane right of course, you know as a centerman,
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: and you know who's been involved in potential.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Trade talks according to reports.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: But I mean it is wide open right now for
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: him to fit in out. And you talk power play
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: Matty Benier's Chandler Stevenson, Jordan Eberley, Berkeley, Catton, Shane Right,
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: Coppo Coco, Bobby McMahon, We're getting looks you you you
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: put him with the right guy. This could work out
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: just fine. Does he drive a line right now? That
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: may be a bit un air to say, I think
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: with him at this point, but you know, we assume
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: more moves are coming here with this team. But where
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: do you see him falling into the lineup here? Potentially?
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: I mean I think he maybe even hinted at this.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: Put him up top with McMahon and ben Ears.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Well, the easy answer to that is Matty Vaniers, because
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: they played it together for a year in Michigan. They
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: know each other. You know, obviously Maddy in the middle
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: with with Seveisaviach on the on the wing, makes sense
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: who's the other winger on that line? I mentioned Coppocco earlier.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: The nice thing about a guy like Coco on that
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: line is he's your guy that can dig pucks out
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: of the out of the corners. He's the guy that's
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: going to go to the front of the net. I
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: don't think you're going to see Samuskevitch battling for position
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: on top of the blue paint that often. He's going
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: to be the guy that's delivering pucks. He's going to
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: be the guy, you know, bringing the the the puck
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: into the offensive zone with speed. So a guy like
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Kappocco on that line on one wing, along with the
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Vaneers in the middle and Semiskivitch on the other, that
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: could be something you see early on the season that
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Lei Lambert tries to see how those three work together.
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: As far as what went out the door to get
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: this trade finish, I like that they still have right
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: now the seventh overall pick to hang on to.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, either a you look.
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: At a potential of getting a very good player and
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: many have said, once you get past Gavin McKenna ivar Stenberg,
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: you know there's a good deep pool, a very very good,
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: potentially top paired defenseman out there. Or potentially you could
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: still trade that pick if you're going to move up
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: or make a move for a bona Fie top line guy.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: So the second rounder, I think is fine. You know,
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: those guys, if you find the right diamonds in the rough,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: they can be NHL players. But those guys aren't guaranteed
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: anhellers Lay first rounder maybe surprise me. I mean, does
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: that help us at the market for other deals?
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Who knows?
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: But you know there's still more projects, you know, more
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: for than a sure thing. And you know Florida eventually
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: use that pick to flip it to Ottawa for Brady
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: Kuld Chuck and massive deals. So you know that's for
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: a guy who was an off forsheet candidate. Next deal
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: maybe around three million dollars for him, he's an RFA
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: the floor maybe for him. I've read as Troy Brower
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: or Patrick Eves the ceiling, maybe Troy Terry or even
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: Adrian camp Based. So how do you feel about what
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: went out the door?
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, listen, you got to give something to get something,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: and I think the crack and holding on to their
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: earlier first prom pick still gives them a chance. It's
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: somebody to put into their prospect pool. You know the
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: fact that they're giving up a first round pick to
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: get Samuskevitch tells me that they're looking for more balance
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: than that, that they don't want all these picks they
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: have coming up in the draft either, So you know,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: if they don't deal their their their number seven pick,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I could see them looking at a guy like Keaton Verhoff,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: a right shot defenceman they haven't gotten. They haven't gotten
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: any defenseman recently. Carson Carrell's as a defenseman. UH start
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: to start to fill that blue line pipeline back up
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: a little bit. Since you know, the last few years,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: there's been a lot of centers and forwards that have
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: been added to the prospect list. So we'll see, we'll
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: see who's available. But I definitely would bet on a
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: defenseman if they end up taking that pick.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: And shall we remind you June twenty six is Night
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: one of the NHL Draft. I will be with al
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: and ever it fits you and Ian Furness and with
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: you also at thirty two bar and we'll also be
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: talking about this potentially the seventh overall pick and much
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: more insight in connection here to this. So yeah, next
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: five days going to be pretty tell tale. But there's
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: also a bigger meaning here I think attached to this
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: for this offseason, and we expect news coming very soon
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: on this audit and it's bled deep into June now.
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: But if you've paid attention, folks, there's a theme growing
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: out of all of this. I think number one, just
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: on the sheer standpoint that you made the trade for Samuskevitch,
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: you get man also wrapped up before July one hits.
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: You know, the wheels are in motion. I think for
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: serious change, it's a good start. But Jason Bottrel also
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: has recited youth over and over. They've hired Pascal Vinson
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: on the bench, who's got a great background here in development.
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: They've hired Patrick Alvin in the front office part of
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: three cups with Pittsburgh. They've hired Justin Schultz also to
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: work with young defensemen. And they made a trade with
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: or for Samuskevitch based on potential, not on resume. So
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: is this going to be the big fish trade Obviously
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: the odds say no, and I think we learned last
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: summer you can take a swing in June, but it's
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: only a move to get out of the starting blocks.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: Mason Marshman was a Jum pick up and he was
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: out of the organization by Christmas. But even if this
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: isn't branded a full rebuild, it feels like a soft
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: turnover of a variety of it.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: You've likely got.
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: A few veterans going out the door this summer, but
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: you're not tearing the whole thing down to the studs.
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: But they've got to keep the trade crank moving. Free
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: agency is going to be a bear cupboard here for
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: this summer, so they're gonna have to bank success on IFFs.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: But if Samuskevitch hits his Marx, this is a solid pickup,
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: then of course McMahon's good to go, assuming he's healthy.
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: But a Memm with the right line mates potentially thirty
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: goals the kind of game they want to play, it's
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: a great fit. That's a big, big win for you.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: But then you keep the doors open here to trade
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: for someone more established, potentially to fill your top line.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: That'll be a bigger part of the offseason.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Recipe. Yeah, I think you're right, Mike, and I think
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: that's you know, where the team is this year compared
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: to where they are last year. I think they're much
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: further ahead. Those two big announcements between the sign with
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: Bobby mcmahonnon and pick up the sand of Skevitch puts
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: them in a much better position, I think, than where
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: they were last year at this time. And we're not
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: having done yet, we don't know that could be more.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: That couple of what's changed in the front office, what's
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: changed on the bench, I think are all good signs
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: that we're going to point this team in the right correction.
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: All right, great starts so far again the crack and
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: getting Mackie Samuskevitch via trade from the Florida Panthers and
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: then capping it off here on Father's Day, but the
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: extension of Bobby McMahon for six more years and is
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: still just June twenty first, looking forward to more going
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: down here, potentially here as the Kranck and go through
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: what could be a big summer of change. I'm looking
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: forward to June twenty six with you, al But in
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: the meantime, you got a food comba here to get
• 21:45
