0:10
Management, The Fantasy Hockey Podcast with Jake, Josh and
0:14
Kevin. Today I'm working.
0:18
Nice. Today we're going to be doing
0:20
our mail bag episode and this is as of the week of January 27th.
0:24
Last week I said something to the tune of week 27 that was
0:28
wrong. As always, if you want to follow

0:42
So let's dive into the questions for this week's party in the
0:46
Korea on Reddit tasks. Besides Cider and Wigger, who is
0:50
the next best all around Bangor League D rest of season in terms
0:54
of cat coverage while still providing some offence?
0:57
Well, Party of in Korea, I'll just say Party of Korea, Party
1:01
in Korea. I think the clear name after
1:05
those guys is probably Daline. I still put him in that
1:07
category. Yeah, his banger cast this year,
1:09
I've been lesser than what we've been used to in the past, but
1:12
he's still honestly one of the top three top five fantasy
1:15
defensemen. I take him over both writer and
1:19
wigger. Overall, we're talking bangers,
1:21
though. I like Charlie McAvoy as well
1:25
because he's the type of guy that's gonna get you over two
1:27
blocks, over two hits and close to two shots a game.
1:30
Yeah, his point production and power production is gonna be
1:33
less than what we're expecting from these other top names that
1:35
you mentioned. But overall I like him a lot and
1:38
I think Josh has some names too. Yeah.
1:40
So obviously we're not including the top, top defensemen who are
1:43
a different archetype. We're not going to mention like
1:45
the Oasis and Makers because those are guys who don't really
1:47
do that much for the hits category.
1:49
Those guys are still solid at a shots and blocks.
1:51
But let's talk about guys who are more like a Dalene and more
1:53
like this Cider and weaker. 3 guys that I could think of are
1:57
Colton Parayko, Seth Jones, and Neal Pionk.
2:00
So Parreco is averaging .5 points, 1.6 hits and two point
2:04
four blocks. Jones at .7 points, 1.3 hits,
2:07
1.8 blocks and Pianka .6 points, 1.5 hits, 1.5 blocks.
2:12
Essentially all these guys are getting you over a hit in a
2:15
block of game and they're getting you more than they're
2:18
getting you more than a point every two games.
2:20
And that's kind of like the same kind of, you know, realm as
2:23
cider and weaker. I think cider and weaker are
2:24
still a step. Up when you guys, when you're
2:26
thinking of good back, back category like Bangor category
2:29
defensemen, I'm looking at over two hits, two blocks like that's
2:32
my line there where I'm trying to get to that range because
2:35
over one is the bar is low. Right.
2:38
I think they're asking more of like these all around guys, you
2:41
know, cuz I can mention a guy like Jacob Trouba, Radko, Gudas,
2:44
you know, those are like everyone knows those are the
2:46
classic bangers. Guys are gonna hit you hit and
2:48
block a ton, but they're not gonna contribute to points as
2:50
well. So I think by citing cider and
2:52
Uighur, they're looking for that specific archetype of guys who
2:55
are going to contribute to points but also are solid for
2:58
bangers. Yeah, no, I hear you.
3:01
I, I think, I think all the names you mentioned are great.
3:03
I think Macavoy too, I put in there, but there's a lot of guys
3:07
that it's hard to find those guys here I feel like where, you
3:09
know, they're averaging two hits, two blocks, some shots and
3:12
getting you that point production.
3:13
So if you have them, it's super valuable because especially from
3:16
the defensive position, that's rare.
3:18
And just two other names I'm going to mention.
3:21
Romanov as of late. Insane.
3:23
So where did that come from? But he's been really good.
3:25
And Jake Walman's pretty, pretty consistent with shots and
3:28
blocks. Not a point stud, but his hits
3:32
are not bad either. So I don't know.
3:33
What do you think about Wallman? I like Wallman a lot, but I
3:36
think once you're not talking about hits, there's so many guys
3:39
who are great at. Points on the car, you'll see
3:41
these guys are getting zero hits, but they're getting a
3:43
Leech I like. I was looking into guys like,
3:45
cuz the poster specifically asked in terms of shot, hits,
3:48
blocks. But it's, you know, it's easy
3:51
when you're looking at the stats to look at guys.
3:52
You're like, oh, the top guys are, you know, Makar and Yoshi,
3:55
but that's because they shoot and like Werenski because they
3:57
shoot and block so much that it counteracts their lack of hits.
4:00
So I was trying to point guys who are more kind of all around.
4:02
Cat cover that has a high high floor in hits also contributing
4:05
in those other categories. Yeah, but I do love while in.
4:07
His blogs are unreal and I think he's solid for points.
4:11
The Pork Man on Reddit asked which teams are you targeting
4:14
for playoffs weeks 22 to 24? Yeah, so for week 22 to 24, he
4:20
actually asked like just, you know, who are you guys targeting
4:22
and let me know what weeks you guys have your playoffs.
4:25
So, so I said our weeks are week 22 to 24 and the guys, the teams
4:30
that I'm targeting are Minnesota, Ottawa, Montreal and
4:33
Dallas. So in general, what I like to
4:35
look at for when you have a three weeks playoffs is you're
4:39
going to have a group of teams that plays 11 times over the
4:41
course of those three weeks. They're going to have 1-3 game
4:43
week and two four-game weeks. And of those, that group, those
4:46
are all like the elite ones, but the elite beat ones in my eyes
4:49
are the ones that both their four-game weeks are the semis
4:52
and the finals. Because I'm assuming that, you
4:54
know, your first round matchup is gonna be the easiest of the
4:58
three matchups and you wanna focus on guys, we're gonna have
5:02
the most games in the last two weeks.
5:04
So those are the four teams that I just mentioned.
5:05
And of those four teams, the one with the most off nights is
5:08
Minnesota. So I think Minnesota is really
5:10
the peak team to target for playoff schedule.
5:14
I think we talk about playoff schedule as well.
5:16
It's all about also targeting teams like that you don't want
5:20
to have on your roster. And I think for me, it's just
5:22
like that Week 24 is going to be your championship matchup in
5:26
most leagues or the semifinals in most leagues.
5:29
And having top fantasy asset teams like New Jersey and
5:33
Toronto and the Rangers have only two games.
5:35
And during that week, honestly, it can really hinder your
5:39
playoff success. So those are guys, if you have
5:41
guys on that team like, you know, Toronto, New Jersey, both
5:45
have four games in the two weeks prior to Week 24, right?
5:48
So that's great. I mean, you get to the finals
5:50
and then you get pooped on just because your best team, your
5:53
best players only have two games.
5:55
That's tough. So I'd be looking to move those
5:57
guys for guys better playoff schedules and all the names you
5:59
all the teams you mentioned are great teams to target.
6:02
Nobody wants to get pooped on. Also OK.
6:06
Not nobody. Moving on, Marisa Mcsmith asks
6:13
Kate and Gulley or Arbor Jackie. This is unfortunately Kate and
6:19
Gulley has a pretty serious injury that may keep him out the
6:21
rest of the season. I guess the way that we could
6:24
look at this right now is would you want to roster Jackie rest
6:27
of season because of course goolies out long term, it's a
6:30
no-brainer. You're rather Jack eye.
6:32
But what do you think, Jackie? Overall rest of season?
6:35
Not much to consider here with Guli Guli hurt.
6:38
Obviously this question came in before the injury, which is
6:40
unfortunate, but before the injury was said Guli easily
6:43
because he contributes more in the categories and has more
6:45
points upside. But after the injury, I mean,
6:46
you can't roster Gully Jack. I would take it, especially in
6:50
your banger category. He's gonna be good for hits and
6:52
Pimms, but besides that you might have better options on
6:54
waivers to be honest. Yeah, assuming they're both
6:57
healthy, it's Gully I think pretty easily because he does.
7:00
He blocks way more. He's gonna be better for points
7:02
and shots. Jackie is way better for Pimms
7:05
and but only slightly better for hits.
7:06
I would expect him to be a lot better for it to be a
7:09
conversation. So I think it's easily Gully,
7:10
obviously barring the injury. And then in terms of the injury
7:13
and do you want to have Jackie on your roster?
7:15
I just think there's a lot better guys for pure bangers
7:19
that you could find. Like we were talking, we've been
7:21
talking a lot about like a guy like Romanov, you know, he's
7:23
really just putting up crazy numbers or like these are types
7:26
of guys to, if you're looking really bottom of the barrel
7:28
bangers, like these are guys who are gonna be streaming.
7:30
So just go for whoever has four games that week and is on a hot
7:32
streak of doing some decent hits and blocks.
7:35
Yeah, exactly. Next pcav 4 on Instagram asks
7:41
with Kaprizov out again, should I be looking to trade Joel
7:44
Ericsson Ek? My take on this is that an
7:46
appoint Sly? You could definitely get rid of
7:48
Eric's neck, but in a bangers league I think Eric's neck still
7:51
holds a lot of value because his shots, faceoffs, and hits are
7:54
going to stay elite regardless. Yeah, I think this is a, this is
7:59
a really interesting 1 and I think it's gonna be affected a
8:02
lot by how the lines shake out with Kaprizov out on.
8:06
What I've been seeing is there trying to do a first line of
8:10
Boldy, Zuccarello and Erickson Eck.
8:12
In which case Eric Snack is actually getting better
8:15
deployment with Kaprizov out than with him in.
8:18
Because when Capri's in, Ericsson neck is the second line
8:20
centre and Rossi plays with Kaprizov and Zuccarello.
8:23
So in that case, Erickson Eck has Boldy and kind of a, you
8:27
know, Hartman or Gaudreau or someone who's just not great as
8:30
his second winger, whereas now he has both Body and Zuccarello
8:33
and he's the main piece on that like top line.
8:36
So I think it's possible his deployment actually gets better.
8:38
The Big L is that on the power play you're not playing with
8:41
Prison, who is one of the greatest players in the league.
8:43
So it can go both ways. But I kind of agree.
8:46
Points league, you could potentially look at shopping
8:48
him. Bangers league I'm still holding
8:49
pretty happily, yeah. You're not dropping him in a
8:51
point. So you also by the way, like
8:52
you're going to have to trade him.
8:53
But I think that. Depends how shallow your league
8:55
is, though. In a lot of Yahoo default,
8:58
you'll find guys like Kadri, like, you know, the virus has
9:00
been on waivers here and there where I, I would obviously pick
9:02
up those guys now that that fair result is out.
9:06
But in most leagues where those guys are obviously rostered, I
9:10
think in points leagues obviously is less valuable than
9:13
in category leagues. I think we saw earlier in the
9:15
season when Kaprizov missed, what was it like two or three
9:18
weeks, we saw Erickson Eck kind of production really, really not
9:21
be strong. And I'd just be worried that,
9:24
you know, the lines don't shake out properly or there's a lot of
9:26
inconsistency in the deployment and that really hinders his
9:30
production. Obviously he's good at bangers,
9:32
but if you can trade him right now for a guy that maybe is
9:36
safer, I would really look into that.
9:39
I will say one thing though, kind of tying into our one of
9:41
our previous questions is that I like Minnesota's playoff
9:44
schedule. If your playoffs are Week 22 to
9:46
24, I think they have the best playoff schedule of any team.
9:48
So I wouldn't want to trade him in that sense, but that's just
9:51
another thing to keep in mind. Would you, would you trade
9:55
Ericson like for like Patrick Liney?
9:57
Absolutely not. I mean in in our league
10:00
settings, I don't think that's that's close, but.
10:03
No, no, I'm talking category leagues because that's really, I
10:05
think putting the back categories against the points up
10:09
sign. Yeah, I don't see the point
10:12
difference being that big enough to to warrant the decrease in
10:15
the categories. Yeah, I agree.
10:18
Thunter 181 asks Week 24 of the playoffs.
10:22
New Jersey only has two games. I currently have Meyer and
10:26
Hughes. Do you think I should shop Meyer
10:28
around? If so, who could be a good
10:30
potential trade target? I love this question.
10:34
I mean, as a fellow former miner owner who sold them to somebody
10:37
in this room chump OHS, sorry, Jackie, but I mean I'm very pro
10:45
trading Timo Meyer or Jack Hughes because just that that
10:48
two game playoff championship week is just brutal, right?
10:52
Like a lot of players will out produce those two guys if they
10:57
have four games, right? It's just really tough to make
10:59
up that ground. Obviously not impossible, but if
11:01
you can get somebody in a similar to a better, better
11:04
production, I would do that. I'm gonna give you some for
11:07
tomorrow that I think you can make a flip for.
11:09
I would rather have if you can temo 4 Drake Batherson.
11:13
I would do that if you can flip Timo for, I mean, why Johnson is
11:18
maybe aiming high if you could get, you know, maybe a Buffalo
11:22
guy. What do you think about Alex
11:24
talk? I feel like that's close.
11:27
I'd rather team more than talk, I think.
11:29
But talk is tough. Because he doesn't.
11:31
Have good deployment. Would you trade for Dylan
11:33
Gunther, who's just coming back from injury?
11:37
I would take it through for Tina.
11:38
I think so too actually. May try to make that swap to be
11:41
honest. That's that's.
11:42
Good. Well yeah, yeah because honestly
11:46
is great at shots and hits, right it's not many players that
11:49
can average. What he does in those categories
11:51
is really just a lack of power play and the the two game
11:54
championship week. So there's a lot of guys that I
11:56
think that have four games that would take three games as well.
12:00
Obviously this is taking into account that you're going to be
12:02
a shoe in for the playoffs and not have to struggle to make it
12:04
there, so. Yeah, I think assuming that
12:07
you're in a good playoff spot right now, this is definitely
12:10
the time to start making moves to improve your playoff
12:12
schedule. You know, people who think about
12:14
this ahead of time are you have a huge benefit at the end of the
12:17
season when they go up against someone else in the finals and
12:19
they have like 8 more games to play or something.
12:21
So you know he's stacking the odds in your favor is always,
12:24
always a good move. In terms of these specific
12:27
players, I think you would definitely want to trade both of
12:30
them. I've been trying, I've been
12:31
saying Meyers should be sold the whole season, but definitely
12:35
because of the playoff schedule and with he sure out.
12:38
So we had mentioned in our in our news episode, I think Myers
12:41
value is gonna go up briefly until he sure comes back.
12:43
So it would be a great time to sell high.
12:45
Some guys that I would kind of look at.
12:48
I can look at like a Kevin Fiala, Tim Stutzel as as one for
12:52
one guys and then I don't. Think that would be attainable,
12:55
to be honest. I mean, you know, Fiala maybe, I
12:58
think. Fiala you could definitely get
12:59
yeah, and this is really, really bad.
13:02
But so obviously it's like league dependent, but I think
13:04
it's possible. And then some guys that like if
13:07
you can do team of for this guy and plus something else, I would
13:09
like, I'm looking at Josh Norris.
13:11
I mean, you know what, we're really high on Josh Norris here.
13:14
Obviously this is for bangers. That would be tough for me,
13:16
honestly. That's.
13:18
The point this wouldn't be a one for one, this would be Josh
13:21
Norris plus. But like Ottawa is a great
13:23
playoff schedule and I could see Norris contributing more to
13:26
those to those final two weeks then then Teemo pretty easily.
13:29
And I'm also looking at Jamie Benn.
13:31
Plus Ben has been pretty bad lately.
13:33
Yeah. And Dallas has a really good
13:34
playoff schedule. So I think you can get him plus
13:36
something else for team. And I think those would be I've
13:38
been. Trying to get Ben giving too
13:40
feels like a lot. But if you're getting Ben Plus,
13:43
yeah, that's great. I want to give some names before
13:46
we move on to the next question to give some names for Jack
13:47
because he was also part of this question and I feel like he's
13:49
obviously an easier asset to trade for Jack Hughes.
13:53
Like would you take Hughes for JT Miller?
13:57
Yeah, I'll take Miller. But what if treatment gets
13:58
traded to the Rangers that also have a 2 game playoff week?
14:01
Right. So that's.
14:01
That's the risky thing. Would you do Jacques for Tage
14:05
Thompson? Yeah, I would.
14:08
Wow, See that's that's. True Jackie.
14:11
For Thompson? Wow.
14:12
I mean, Buffalo is a great playoff schedule and Thompson
14:16
did just get three goals and an assist against me last night, so
14:19
you know, that helps. But no, I've been trying to
14:21
trade for Teach for awhile. I think you might be able to get
14:23
tape and a little sweetener as well, so why not go for that?
14:26
Jack Hughes or Mikko? Rantanen ranting and easy.
14:29
OK. I just wanted to see Jake would
14:30
be like Jack Hughes. Jackie is low on rationing and
14:34
loves. Him way lower on Rantanen.
14:36
Jack Hughes for Natures Plus. Yeah.
14:40
Yeah, Jack used for Adrian Kempe.
14:44
I think you can get more. I think you get Kempe plus. 10
14:46
plus if you. Could do like Kempe and Natures
14:48
for Jack Hughes, plus like someone less good than the other
14:50
two. That would be a good.
14:51
Probably nuts. Yeah, I.
14:53
Would I would maybe go cross position?
14:55
You can maybe get a kill Makara Quinn Hughes for Jack Hughes.
14:59
Yeah, the old hues for hue swap. Yep.
15:01
Yeah, Luke. Watching from free agency.
15:06
Sad. That was harsh.
15:11
OK then from Instagram Izzy asks 3 players to I can't say this
15:17
word Mary and kill you. Can just say bang.
15:21
Bang like Bangor management exactly you're.
15:24
Fired. Fired.
15:24
Bang. Marry.
15:25
Kill So is he from Instagram? This is a family friendly show,
15:31
so unfortunately we can't answer it quite like that.
15:34
However, we're gonna try to do like the closest thing to a
15:36
fantasy hockey rendition to help you put on.
15:40
Like to make this sort of family friendly, if you will.
15:44
Where is head is at though? The hard hitting questions we
15:48
need to be getting. So yeah, essentially the idea is
15:53
going to be keep them on your fantasy team, but never meet in
15:57
real life, marry in real life, but can't hold them on your
16:00
fantasy team and drop. So let's do this with the top
16:03
three draft picks in our league. McDavid, McKinnon, Matthews, and
16:07
I'm expecting some detailed answers here.
16:10
Alright, well I'm gonna give you a very detailed answer because
16:12
mine is quick and easy. I am marrying Nathan McKinnon
16:17
because that guy is just a stud and also like who doesn't want
16:20
the best player in the NHL to be his husband?
16:23
I'm probably dropping Austin Matthews just because I don't
16:27
agree with the facial hair and McDavid can be the other one.
16:33
I just think that like, like Al, I mean, no, no shade, but like I
16:38
wouldn't necessarily want to like live in Edmonton and I've
16:41
been to Denver and they got pretty good Mexican food.
16:43
So I'm gonna go with marrying McKinnon as well, dropping
16:47
Matthews. And I'm going to keep McDavid on
16:50
my fantasy team, even though I traded him to Josh last year and
16:54
then he won. But let's not, let's not dive
16:56
into that part of it. Yeah, let's not dive into that.
16:58
I actually hadn't McDavid and McKinnon on my team last year,
17:00
thanks to Jakey. So that was pretty fun.
17:03
I think I'd actually do to keep McKinnon my team, but never
17:08
meet. I don't think I can marry
17:09
McKinnon. The his like diet routine of
17:11
just eating chickpeas and stuff. You know, I, I like to he, you
17:14
know, if he saw his like, you know, you with like an ice cream
17:17
or something, he'd be like, give me like 20 pushups right now.
17:19
B12 Diet. You know like I just I cannot
17:22
handle that. I need my Mcflurries and stuff
17:25
and my chef on call. So yeah.
17:29
So I'm gonna take a free on my team but not marry him.
17:32
And then I think I would take, I think I'd marry McDavid.
17:36
I just think he's gonna make the most money out of all of them.
17:37
And I'm a bit of a gold digger, so I think that's a solid bet
17:41
there. And yeah, drop Matthews cuz I
17:44
hate to leave centre on poor. Matthews OK, let's move on to
17:49
the next question. On Instagram Armin asked what to
17:53
do with Dobson out rest of season and also what to do with
17:57
Cap Resolve and Monahan. So just my thoughts on this.
18:01
The first thing is whether or not you have an IR IR spot and
18:05
whether you're in a comfortable playoff position.
18:07
So if you have both of those working in your favor then I'd
18:11
hold on to these guys for sure because they can help your team
18:14
come playoff time. Especially as Josh Menton for
18:16
Kaprizov because the Wild have such a good playoff schedule.
18:20
But if you're fighting for a playoff spot and or you don't
18:23
have an IR, I would suggest trying to shop them around.
18:26
Even if you sell it at discount, getting back a player to help
18:28
you make the playoffs is a better question.
18:30
Just giving up on the season. Yeah, I mean, I think there's
18:33
some pretty clear answers for these guys to be honest.
18:35
Dobson seems to be out long term.
18:37
His team just signed 2 potential replacements for his power play,
18:41
Tony D'Angelo and Scott Munich. If you listen to our previous
18:45
episode earlier in the week, the news and updates, we spoke about
18:49
what to do with Tony D'Angelo and Dobson, so you can listen to
18:52
that. But I think if Dobson missing
18:54
extended amount of time, like you can't, you can't do much.
18:57
I would try to trade him and get anything.
18:58
If you can flip Dobson for another guy that's been like
19:00
middling or you know, coming back from injury as well, I
19:03
would really consider it. Like if you get a surrogate
19:05
Chev, if that's even in the world of possibilities, maybe I
19:09
would aim even lower than that to be honest.
19:11
But obviously if not, just even on your IR cap, that's the big
19:15
name that you can probably trade for something of value.
19:18
If you can get any Top 40 player, I would do it, but it
19:21
really just depends on your playoff schedule.
19:23
We touched on this before as well and Monahan, that's tough
19:26
because you can't get anything from Monaghan.
19:27
He's out for the rest of the fantasy season most likely.
19:29
Like it's 8 weeks, that's that's tough and it's really a keeper
19:32
league or something like that where you know somebody that's
19:35
tanking could use the value and you get immediate production.
19:37
But besides that, there's not much you can do.
19:40
Yeah, at this point, these guys, I see Monaghan and Dobson as
19:43
pretty much just no value at this point.
19:46
I think they're just gone for the rest of this season,
19:48
unfortunately. Kaprizov is the one that I'm
19:51
most interested in. Obviously you're never dropping
19:53
him. Monahan and Dobson, if you're
19:55
out of IR spots, I don't think it's crazy to have to drop them.
19:59
But Kaprizov, I think you you tough it out because he will be
20:02
back for fantasy playoffs most likely.
20:04
So that's the one that I'm most interested in and I'm actually
20:07
very interested in buying low on him.
20:09
If I don't have him, it's not going to happen in our league.
20:11
Because no one wants to trade with me anymore.
20:13
But but yeah. Group everybody off.
20:15
He's off. I don't RIP people off where
20:17
everyone's happy. You're happy, you're rejoicing,
20:20
and everybody else is is contemplating, but she's.
20:22
Always happy after we trade, you know, he's just not happy when I
20:25
win at the end, but that has nothing to do with it.
20:29
Moo ving on OK from Instagram, Zoe asked which of the three
20:35
hosts would be most embarrassing if they met their dream hockey
20:38
player. So I have some thoughts on this.
20:40
I think Josh would be like Kim Jong Un to Dave Skylark and the
20:44
interview, but somehow even with that, I think Kevin would be
20:48
more embarrassing. I completely disagree, I would
20:51
not be embarrassing at all. I am never embarrassing.
20:54
If anything I think Jake would be the most embarrassing.
20:56
OK, Jakey where Spiderman costumes when he's famous
20:59
people. I don't, I don't know what else
21:00
to to say about that. What I used to see cool coffee
21:07
all that like the bar actually gave him props like I was like
21:12
but. What were you wearing when you
21:13
were Bruce Willis? Famous celebrity that's.
21:14
Not, That's not OK. No, no, no, Bruce Willis.
21:17
What a throwback to like our first episode.
21:22
It was actually a Superman costume, but.
21:25
That's what I meant. Even worse, Spider Man's way
21:29
cooler. But yeah, so Josh, who do you
21:34
think would be the most embarrassing?
21:36
I feel like I'd be the most embarrassing.
21:37
I think I'd freak out, honestly. I mean, it would be a mix of
21:42
either I would be like overthinking it too much and
21:45
just not go over to them and say hi and then just regret it for
21:47
the rest of my life. Or I just like go full fangirl
21:49
and just be like, Oh my God, you know, like can you like take me
21:52
with you on the on the and I'll just play put me on the fourth
21:55
line, you know? Of the two of you, who who is
21:58
most likely to have clammy hands when meeting the person shaking
22:00
their hand? My hands are pretty, pretty
22:03
solid. They're not, They're not clammy
22:05
at all. I think, I think I probably
22:07
give, you know, not the strongest handshake, but but you
22:10
know, don't worry about my hands.
22:11
They're good. Who's most likely to give
22:13
someone a high 5 when they're giving you a props that's.
22:16
That's a real question. That's probably Josh, yeah.
22:23
But at least it'll be memorable for them.
22:25
They can all laugh about me in the locker room.
22:27
Exactly. Exactly.
22:30
OK, now let's move on to the last question.
22:32
This week from Instagram, Emily asked.
22:35
Compare this NHL season, so your fantasy hockey season, to a
22:39
movie of your choice, and explain why.
22:41
I'm gonna go with Legends of the Fall, which was released in
22:45
1994, I believe. Because at the beginning, it
22:49
looked magnificent, and then it just kept getting worse and
22:53
worse. It was the worst movie I've ever
22:56
seen. And that's exactly what's
22:58
happening to my fantasy team. Things look great.
23:00
I felt so good about the draft. And then it's just been like a
23:04
slow, steady, painful decline, injury after injury.
23:08
And now I'm fighting for my life.
23:09
And somehow this movie won an Oscar nomination.
23:12
So I hope this the same fate happens to me.
23:15
But we'll have to see. Josh, you should go.
23:18
I have the best answer. I'm saving it for last, OK?
23:21
Oh, wow. OK, Josh, go OK.
23:23
Here, here's my answer, but it's with a with a changed ending.
23:27
OK, my answer is that mine is like the movie Dodgeball, except
23:33
that it's the movie Dodgeball as it should have ended with Globo
23:37
Gym winning because they were way better at dodgeball.
23:39
And in this sense, I'm Globo Gym.
23:42
So I'm coming in hot. You know, I've won three
23:44
straight and I'm feeling pretty good.
23:46
And I think, I think Global Gym's gonna kick the average
23:49
Joe's ass. Wow, I see how it is.
23:54
Wow, that's like Barney Stinson liking all like this.
23:57
Yeah, exactly. Contrary opinions in the movies.
24:01
Wow. OK, OK.
24:04
How about you? Bleed my own blood.
24:06
Wow. OK, my answer for my how I would
24:12
describe my fantasy team, and this is this is looking into the
24:16
end of the season, but Shawshank Redemption.
24:20
Because not only has Josh eliminated me in multiple
24:23
consecutive years and I've finished either runner up or
24:25
third place, but this is the year I'm getting my redemption
24:29
because Josh is not winning 4 back-to-back to back-to-back.
24:33
You either get busy living or get busy dying.
24:36
That's damn right. Alright, the trailer.
24:41
Wow, good answer. Kind of.
24:42
Honestly, Kevin, I kind of want you to win.
24:45
Thank you, The greatest one of the greatest movies of all time
24:49
and it's also my fantasy season. What are the odds?
24:51
I know mine mine that's. For sure.
24:54
Why would it watch the way when I'm competing against you, Josh?
24:58
You're like, how dare you don't want me to win the four peat.
25:00
Yeah, no, I'll just give it to you.
25:01
It's just. Yeah.
25:02
Yeah, no, no, my, my movie is just horrible.
25:05
So yeah, this, this is just not my ear.
25:06
