Can't believe y'all still rocking this intro after all this time. Fucking hell
Grant was one of the fewest who believed in Slaf from the beginning. Respect 👍
He also said KK was a better prospect than Matthews so….
@@scottm9010 sometimes you can value prospect high that has top skills but after all its also on player if he can reach this level how hard he work. This sometimes you cant predict well
Snake said he was the #1 pick in the 2022 draft.
For the sleeper, to me the ultimate one from last season's draft is Quentin Miller. He got traded from a restart from scratch Quebec team to more of a somewhat contender in Rimouski mid-season but the Oceanic is yet another team with massive defense issues and little to no chance to getting anywhere in the playoffs, so second extremely tough job the very same year for him. And still, last 8 games he played he's got a .928 SV% pulled off 232 svs that's only 31 less saves than Fowler in the same exact span with Fowler having played 2 full more games (yes, amazing ones at that). With Volokhin also doing wonders in Russia, this goalie draft class is looking absolutely fantastic.
great podcast McCagg as always great commonts... real evaluation of the rocket
I had that feeling for Richer as well, he was so fun to watch, agree with you Tony on this one. Slaf is the next one since Richer and Lafleur in my opinion and Slaf has a more all around game.
More all around, less scoring tho.
Harris is an intelligent player
Needs more advertising we can still see Tony
ive said for 2 yrs now Slav could be the next Joe Thorton give him another 2 yrs SICK!!
Always a great show with Grant. Honest appraisal of Canadian players/prospects...
30 years since the Habs have a future.
Btw. Malkin has almost same numbers this season as Caufield, just one more assist :)
Malkin is 37 or 38, so there is that.
@@rgood1204 I don't argue :)
This is what happens in a rebuild when you finish top 3, we get good prospects. Slaf will possibly be a futur star in the NHL. Too bad the goalies keep stealing games for Montreal the last 2 seasons; we could have finished for the drafts top 3 in 2024 and top 4 in 2024. This will unfortunately hurt their futur. Monty stole a point again against the Islanders !!!
That is so true I can’t imagine where the habs would be with Fantilli or Smith , this year we need Lindstrom so bad !!! I really hope we win lottery and get any of Celebrini , Demidov, Lindstrom
@@frenchycanopy1659 totally agree since this is likely our last season we finish top 10 at the draft !!!
@@powers1500 well maybe next year still in top 10 but after that no way
Talking about the NHL code on dirty hits, nobody seems to be talking about the Kucherov hit on Guhle. Seems like the Habs have just ignored it. What are you thoughts?
“This is sports talk for the new generation” S I C K. That’s the good stuff. Great theme to a great show. 5 stars
Spot on about CC’s shot. The last two seasons every time he released a shot it gave goaltenders trouble. Haven’t seen that this season.
Caufield is only shooting 8% this year, its because matheson doesnt give good passes. Leaves Caufield having to rush his shots
Move Arizona to Sudbury its funny but... Salt Lake 1.2mill Northern Ontario 1 mill who would support more? and who are hockey people? actually its not a joke lol Sudbury is building a new areana? 15k arena we are the hub of the north.. lol love ur show Tony SICK 🍻🍻🍻🍻
Salt Lake City combined area is 2.75 million people. N Ontario is 1 million spread out over a vast area.
Did you guys catch Steve Dangle pretty much calling Slaf a bust yesterday?
Can you throw me the video link? Need to hear this clown.
Dangle is so annoying of course torontonias like him
Only gheys listen to ghey leaf fans
I dont think its trolling with the people who want to trade Matheson. I believe they are salivating over what the return could be for him. The return for Matheson would be greater than for any other D, and could potentially land a really good top 6 forward!
Watch Emil score 20 next year....
Logan Cooley 19 yrs old , 5'10" 170 lbs , 20 goals ....vs Slaf 20 yrs old 6'3" 230 lbs 19 goals just saying....
Matheson has put up some decent points, but I would say that he has more value for Montreal in a trade going forward. It's not disrespect to say that his defensive, last line of defense on the pp, game leaves a lot to be desired. Turnovers, he's in the top 10 in the NHL for turnovers. He won't be part of this core when they are ready to win.
Tony, Grant, I have asked this before and never get an answer. What do you expect Ylonen to show you getting 8 or 9 minutes on the fourth line ?? RHP looked good when he was getting high minutes on the first line. Now on the fourth he looks like crap. You get my point ??
we need to trade harris barron a 1st rounder and get a scoring prospect.
Please STOP the intro MUSIC !!! ENOUGH ALREADY !! Keep it to yourself....!! Otherwise ...good hockey talk !!
Tony… learn to say Kovacevic’s name properly please…
Regarding Grant’s beautiful optimism around 32:00 to 36:00
I think the PIECES !!!
are all there (or close)
for the Habs to contend
(On defence : all there
For forwards : need to really hit a home-run with their 2024 Top10 pick)
but the pieces will need
some TIME !!!
to get to maturity !
Guys like Hutson & Reinbacher will need (imo)
At LEAST
3 more years before they really are impactful.
Then you’ll have :
Guhle - Mailloux
Hutson - Reinbacher
Xhekaj - Harris
with : Struble & Engstrom as extras
(Not including Matheson,
cause I’m talking about
in 3-4 years)
Then for forwards :
Slafkovsky - Suzuki - Caufield
???? - Kirby Dach - ????
J.Roy - Newhook - Armia(??)
Like I said…
They really need to hit a
HOME RUN
with their 2024 Top10 Pick.
And even then,
will need to add ANOTHER
Top-6 forward
either through Trade or UFA’s.
3-4 years from now…
Owen Beck will likely be on the team.
Oliver Kapanen will likely be on the team.
Mesar ? We’ll see.
Hopefully big guys like
Florian Xhekaj & Luke Tuch
can develop well,
and eventually make the big team.
That would be a huge boost,
to get two more big boys !!!
But yeah.
Bottomline is :
The 2024 Draft will be
INSTRUMENTAL
to their future success.
They cannot drop the ball.
That's a "sick" intro
Indeed, why Marty keeps overusing Matheson is kind of mind boggling...No Grant, you are wrong here, Matheson is not a number #1 defenseman in the NHL...Remember Grant, 2 teams previously had him and still traded him away because of his defensive play !!!
if its gonna be 45 mins ur just gonna stop? lazy very lazy.
