3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Dave: Is it
3AM Puck Drop: We're gonna have to we're gonna have to put it to a vote to see if this is actually Patrice Bergeron or not.
Dave: It kinda looks like your profile with a beak on ya.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: Got hand dude's handsome as hell, so
Dave: A c compliment. It's a it's a compliment.
Return of the Mac: I know.
Dave: You had the same beak.
3AM Puck Drop: It's a nice night very nice of you to say, Dave.
Dave: Yeah, they don't come often. speaking speaking of betting.
3AM Puck Drop: Or ever.
Dave: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Speaking of betting. I saw everyone's eyes pop up here. Great radio. so my we bit off a little more than we could chew a couple weekends ago in terms of a first birthday party for for my daughter. There was about, I don't know, sixty people, give or take, at my residence. Thank you, gentlemen, for for showing up. My cousin.
Return of the Mac: Wait, what do you mean you bit off more than you could chill?
Dave: we were scrambling in the pocket that entire day. We had no hosting is horrible.
Return of the Mac: I I mean I know what are you talking? You guys are being you're being
3AM Puck Drop: You guys were fine. You guys are fine. Hosting is stressful as as hell, but you guys did a good job. It is.
Dave: hosting his cheeks. But anyways, so I was I was pumping I was pumping my cousin's tires to you guys. I was like, like wait till my you guys meet my cousin Dan. Obviously he knows shows. He big times us. I get a text from him a couple days later. when did the bees play the mammoth that was that following Tuesday, I think, or Wednesday the eighth. And before we were talking about we just got a hammer because pasta didn't score until that game. Gotta hammer pasta any time goal score. We don't get betting advice here. This isn't our this isn't our shtick. We don't do that. We don't condone. We'd whatever. He should have taken our advice. He's like, I had it. Like he took actually, no. Let's roll that one back. Six story Dave. He took it as a part of a parlay,
3AM Puck Drop: Rolling back.
Dave: lost like the last leg of the parlay, but I think he had pasta like two plus goals. Lost the parlay, but he was like, You guys should start giving petting advice. I said, No, you would lose your house, your job, and your 401k. I like, the guy was gonna score.
Return of the Mac: There's eighty four games. It's impossible to like pinpoint Yeah, that's ridiculous.
Dave: But Boys, we know how to read a room. We know how to read
Return of the Mac: Yeah, I
Dave: a putt. We know how to read a putt there.
3AM Puck Drop: yeah, I I mean that's a that's an aw that's an obvious one, I think. you knew it was coming.
Dave: Hey, not for all. He didn't even think to do it. So those listening.
Return of the Mac: I d I I'm not not to toot my own horn, but your boy did parlay geeky and impostifer anytime goal score. Also parlayed it with the same parlay. Also parlayed it 'cause it was Monday night and parlayed it with two touchdown scores in that game. First guy scored one. I hit the sheets around ten thirty and the cowboys were stinking it up and the other g the other touchdown score was on the cowboys. The cash out option was like call it sixty five, seventy percent just cashed out and hit the sheets and woke up
Dave: What a night.
Return of the Mac: woke up but he obviously didn't score, so I look like the
3AM Puck Drop: Nice.
Return of the Mac: I look like the smart man here.
Dave: Boys, we gotta start getting the group chat going
3AM Puck Drop: Good move, Rain Man.
Dave: with with with some ideas because every night I'm looking just to salt bay sprinkle a little bit of something here, a little bit of something there. I chased the overs, I think, maybe a little too much. But we gotta start kicking some ideas.
3AM Puck Drop: I put a lot on the f the frozen frenzy the other day. I tried to do like an eleven team parlay. Just didn't work. I think I went
Return of the Mac: I did too. Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: I maybe like five for eleven.
Dave: I mean we're we're recording here on the fifteenth, Thursday the fifteenth. There's a good slate of games. And I don't know, I've been like trying to be analytical about betting. It's like who has a back to back and who's traveling from where to where, like thinking about not analytical. I just I'm I'm I'm I'm
3AM Puck Drop: Travelitical.
Dave: travelitical. Yeah. We'll make up words as we go. But I don't know.
3AM Puck Drop: Travelytics. That's good's a good point, because you look at like the the NFL when they went to was it Rams, Niners, they went to Australia,
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: and the Rams left 24 hours before the game. Like of course you were gonna get blown out.
Dave: So you they're gonna lose that game.
3AM Puck Drop: Easiest pick of all time. You can't get on a
Return of the Mac: And then the Eagles.
3AM Puck Drop: 17-hour flight and just do that.
Return of the Mac: And then the Eagles did that for London last Sunday. And like granted, like they should have won that game, idiotic. But those brain
3AM Puck Drop: Probably should have won.
Return of the Mac: farts at the end of the game, some could some could question, maybe a little jet lag, whatever. But they
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah. Hundred percent.
Return of the Mac: yeah, so I don't know.
Dave: Again, we do not give out picks, but travelytics.
3AM Puck Drop: Maybe we'll do travelytics. We'll we'll do travelytic picks.
Dave: I'm looking tonight, no one's playing back to backs tonight, but there are some games that the overs are looking spicy. and speaking of overs, this is a Bruins podcast. They've been hitting the over the last three games. Three and in the last three. Mammoth, take them down six-one. Flyers five-one. Thanks for coming. and then the Sharks, the 3 a.m. puck drop, Eastern time. They beat the Sharks six to three. It cost the fraud that Peop people have been
talking, calling us frauds for not staying up watching that game. Listen. And we s we said it here in our group text. Till it starts paying the mortgage. We're sleeping. We gotta go to work the next day. Gotta pay the bills. But they look good, boys. They're scoring goals.
3AM Puck Drop: I mean put put putting the game on at eleven is completely bonkers.
Dave: Eleven
Return of the Mac: That was ridiculous.
3AM Puck Drop: The com the last game of the frozen Fenway. Frozen Frenzy.
Dave: Frozen Fed Way.
Return of the Mac: That was ridiculous. Absolutely. But I I I
Dave: What are they doing?
Return of the Mac: mean I did woke waking up to Mikey's text of like just like hoop potted one to score the game was unreal. yeah, I don't know. I the the high scoring games are starting to scare me a little bit though, not gonna lie. yeah, I know you get the
Dave: You get the goaltending though, Brian. Get the goaltending.
Return of the Mac: goaltending, you just can't like I at one point that I think they had three goals in the first ten shots or something. so they're running into some maybe some goalies that are stinky. But we obviously have a complete brick wall in between the pipes. I'd like to get him on I'd like to have him keep rolling until he doesn't, but I I think DPH row, we need to see it from the backup as well. So they I think Sturm said either Friday what are they b are they back to back Friday, Saturday, I think. Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, they have LA on Saturday.
Return of the Mac: So I think I think he said DPH row is gonna go one of days.
Dave: Makes way too much sense.
3AM Puck Drop: Kinda wish they'd give the kid a shake when he's not playing it back to back. Like maybe when they come home and they have a little bit of a homestand, he'll get just a r a regular game. Yeah, true.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, I I agree. Like start tomorrow.
Dave: Or start on a back to back.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: Like start tomorrow against Anaheim and then have Sway who you know can baile you out against the Kings come in and kinda play clean up a little bit. 'Cause you know it's gonna be messy.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: Like a weird start, like a six PM start on a Saturday. To like it's gonna be all out of whack. Like have him come in, ease ease their minds a little bit and then get back are they back on the bird and coming home, I think.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: No, they go to Dallas. So they'll have a coup but they'll have a couple of days to kinda collect themselves,
Return of the Mac: that's yeah, Dallas on the way home, yeah.
Dave: but you're gonna want Sway to go that game. That's a big game, or do you put D PH row in and give them a test test against a good team? You know?
Return of the Mac: Yeah. I'd like to see CPHR get a ho game at home too. Build some confidence there, get the get the crowd going. I think we've waited long enough to bring up the Lord and Savior, Franz Mitten.
3AM Puck Drop: The best.
Return
of the Mac: He
Dave: Havel Datsuke.
Return of the Mac: he has arrived and I am ecstatic. He he's not just like scoring like he looks the he's he like eye test, he's playing the two hundred foot game. There was a play that I was trying to think about, I think it was against the Flyers. Lynn Holm got buried from behind and he came bombing in and just grabbed a guy. And it's like one of those one of those things you just kinda hope comes naturally and it doesn't always with call him your your skill guys and you can tell he's bought in and like that's that's one characteristic that I love to see out of out of Minton and I know we always harp on it but the the the leadership group maybe has a maybe has a a a hand in that call it but yeah I I I'm I'm obsessed with this game right now. Like I I I have cra I have crazy thoughts going on right now.
3AM Puck Drop: The way that he floats around the ice when he doesn't have the puck too, it's like when he's in the offensive zone, it it's it's super reminiscent of how Bergeron w would get to a spot and just wait, just be in the right spot all the time. Like it's crazy. And I I saw somebody on Twitter, it's a it's a Leafs fan. they're melting down it in Leafs Mania regarding
Return of the Mac: yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: the trade. Someone called him Patrice Bergeron Light, which I really Really like 'cause it gives Burgie
Dave: P B Light.
3AM Puck Drop: PB light. Yeah, I'd love it. It gives Bergie the the
Dave: Print the shirts.
3AM Puck Drop: respect that he deserves while also just showing how good Fronzi Boy is. And I I I sent myself a tweet from from one of these leaf stands. It's from Lo logo Pat. Lots of talk about the Carlo rask and Kessel trades all being terrible for the Leafs. Very funny. Drew me in right away. But there's a fourth Leaf Spruins trade that ended up terrible for Toronto as well. In 2011, the Leafs deal Caberlet of Boston for a first round pick in 2011 and a second round pick in 2012. They ended up trading the first in their own second to trade up to draft Tyler Biggs. Nobody knows who that is. First round pick ended up being Ricard Raquel, and the second ended up being John Gibson, the Ducks goalie. Leafs then took Matt Finn in 2012 with the Bruin second. Nob again, nobody knows who that is. So they missed on Raquel and they missed on Gibson. And this Minton trade is looking like it is it's gonna be the best one of them all, which I'm excited for.
Dave: I love watching the leaves crumble and their fan base crumble. I saw and maybe you guys brought this up, but it was like there was a thing on the NHL Instagram they went around set like to like veterans like asking what who they think is gonna be like a stud coming down the line and and Shifley called out front and was like, He's gonna be the real deal, like something along those lines. I don't have the quote in front of me verbatim, but Like that's coming from other guys and Schweifley's a hell of a player and like they played together at Worlds and you got to see it firsthand. And to get high praises like that from a guy who's been there, done that at both like the National Hockey League and like kind of like representing his country too, like that's pretty cool and like has to get Beast fans fired up.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, long long time listener Luke actually sent it over to me on Instagram and it said, I think he's going to be a special player. I played with him at Worlds and just saw like, wow, he's got some game and he's just kind of still coming on into his own. So
Dave: Huge.
Return of the Mac: yeah, I think I think he surprised a lot of guys. The other thing, Mikey, that dates even back further than the twenty eleven trade is one that leaves love to forget is the Tucarask Andrew Racoff trade. That's what kicked it all
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Return of the Mac: off.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, it did.
Return of the Mac: Two thousand and like that and I know Raycroft always jokes around about it, being like I I helped out Bruins Nation with that trade and it they had I forget O Dog run some sort of podcast. I'm not entirely sure who he is. I'm I'm sure he's someone, but he was saying like the they just have to stop doing trades with the Bruins. But I I want I want them to keep coming. I know. I know.
3AM Puck Drop: I hope not. Hope they don't.
Dave: Please keep doing trades with the bees. Well, O Dog also came out and was like hard on Marchenko was like, we need to get more out of him and everything. I saw I saw that headline. It's like, guys,
Return of the Mac: I know. I know.
Dave: come on. He just got to town.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, they're n they're not happy with this game.
Dave: They have some of the best players on the planet and they'll never be happy with their games. It's insane.
Return of the Mac: No. But Matt but Matthews is he's clocked at the highest speed, so they should be good.
Dave: He's look the best he has from a analytics standpoint in training camp. So they're gonna be a wagon.
Return of the Mac: Yes. Yes. He has
3AM Puck Drop: This is true.
Return of the Mac: stride for stride, the best season.
Dave: Bar Down hockey posted something. I think it was three on it was a three on three clip, McKenna when they were playing Nashville. And he does like a spinorama, like middle of the ice, and then like skates himself into two defensemen and like dumps it in on Tessaros. It's like McKenna's out here dancing. It's like he did a spinorama on Casper the Ghost and dumped it in on a three on a three on three.
Return of the Mac: they're fishing. They're fishing.
Dave: Like we're grasping at straws. And I also think, too, not to go on a tangent on McKenna, but like rookies, Jimmy Haggins isn't getting enough respect
Return of the Mac: No.
Dave: around the league as a rookie.
3AM Puck Drop: I have a little s little sprinkle sprinkle on Jimmy Boy on Slim Jim. You see the shirts that they're rolling out for him too, Slim Jim. twenty what is it, twenty eight hundred plus
twenty eight hundred, I think. Let's see.
Return of the Mac: you got it at twenty eight hundred.
3AM Puck Drop: S I could be making that up. Let me let me verify.
Return of the Mac: I I got him at I got him at twenty to one.
3AM Puck Drop: Yep, twenty. I got at twenty
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: to one. So we we both have some sprinkle on Slim Jim to
Return of the Mac: Mm-hmm.
3AM Puck Drop: win the calder.
Return of the Mac: They also have the Bruins plus 180 to make the playoffs. Last time I checked.
3AM Puck Drop: Ooh, I like that.
Return of the Mac: So I threw in a little lay of I saw Georgia play against Alabama, although and I I know that there was a couple 50 50 calls that could have gone Alabama's way, but I was very impressed with Georgia. And I don't know a ton about college football, but I threw in a pretty crazy lay. It was it was Bruins make playoffs. Georgia wins national championship and Pats win the East. I'm sorry, Pats win the AFC.
Dave: You're not far off. Georgia's a wagon. They were free money
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: the other night, like granted those calls, but they were f like that was the lock of the century.
Return of the Mac: Their defense is is pretty scary to watch. Like they are they're mean. Now I like that that quarterback's got some some nuts on him. Just kind of run run he runs right into traffic.
Dave: Gunner Stockton. What a quarterback name.
Return of the Mac: God.
3AM Puck Drop: That is a crazy name.
Dave: Incredible.
Return of the Mac: He runs he runs right into the he he doesn't avoid con contact. He asks for it. Like going like truly running he looks like Josh Allen. Running the ball, not throwing the ball, running the ball, he looks like Josh Allen. So I I'm all in on Georgia now. I think they're gonna win. But Pats.
Dave: Yo dogs.
Return of the Mac: I am going to the Pats on Sunday.
3AM Puck Drop: Hell yeah.
Return of the Mac: I am and also, I mean, I I know there was a little a little bit of s some confusion, but the mob the Roaming Rose Tavern, the mobile tavern will be at Rodman's.
3AM Puck Drop: No way.
Return of the Mac: yeah, so I will I will be able to see it live. shout
Dave: Good.
Return of the Mac: out shout out roaming rose and going with longtime listener Antonio Marini and Looking forward to it, but I'm a little nervous. Just nervous, just like naturally of a a letdown game, but I'm hoping that they just come on fire. I know. I know.
3AM Puck Drop: No, it's the chats, dude. They'll be fine. I got more questions about the roaming rover though. So you guys are par
Dave: The roaming rose.
3AM Puck Drop: that too. So you guys are parking it at Rodman. Is it like an event that they're doing or are you guys just going as like friends, just tailgating with it?
Return of the Mac: No, so they so they got I don't know if they got like a partnership with Rodman or not, but what they did is like every single game they buy out three spots, park it laterally, and someone rents it out for that tailgate. And so like I think there's someone using it,
3AM Puck Drop: That's pretty cool.
Return of the Mac: but like gr machine will be there and I'll I'll we'll roll by and check it out and that'll be nice. Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah. That's cool. We should try to get some
Dave: It looks great. They did an incredible job on it.
Return of the Mac: His dad, dude. His dad put in some labor. On that thing.
Dave: It looks awesome.
3AM Puck Drop: We should try to get some same seats merch in there, like some
Return of the Mac: I know.
3AM Puck Drop: hanging up, you know, and don't know, try to try to partner with them a little bit.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, they they're they're crushing it right now. They some guy rented it out for his men's league hockey championship the other night.
3AM Puck Drop: That's unbelievable.
Dave: Might have to give him a call in the spring for the fall the Fall River League.
Return of the Mac: I know. I know we might have to get that down at Tiverton backyard.
3AM Puck Drop: We gotta do a live pod from it s at somehow. Somehow, some way.
Return of the Mac: Yeah. A hundred percent.
Dave: We just gotta put our brain cells together, figure out how to do a live pod.
Return of the Mac: I know.
3AM Puck Drop: We got microphones. We can figure it out.
Return of the Mac: I think we
Dave: We can rub together.
Return of the Mac: can do it, yeah. I think actually when we exit this thing it says like live on it or something like that. So we'll have to check it out. Yeah.
Dave: There's gotta be an option. Like there has to be. this is a Bruins podcast though. This is Bruins. But
3AM Puck Drop: This is a Bruins podcast, yes.
Dave: I will be boots on the ground for Vegas and Tampa in Vegas on Tuesday night work trip this upcoming
Return of the Mac: That's super random.
3AM Puck Drop: This this Tuesday night?
Dave: Tuesday. So I will have a full scouting report on the bolts coming to you live next week.
3AM Puck Drop: And the Knights. That's that's gonna
Return of the Mac: Interesting. I
Dave: Yes.
3AM Puck Drop: be crazy.
Dave: Yeah. Pretty excited.
Return of the Mac: I know. I I read something about the Vegas Knights. their capacity is down I think by ten percent. They're like below ninety percent right now.
Dave: Yeah, it was also like they didn't sell out a home opener for the first time in like franchise history. Granted they only been around for like ten years, but still.
Return of the Mac: Yep. They s they said it it cost an arm and a leg to get to the game, to park, to go to the game, to buy any concessions. They s they see
Dave: Hm, wish I knew that. Tickets were cheap, they were sixty four bucks.
Return of the Mac: real so they
3AM Puck Drop: That is cheap.
Return of the Mac: must be dropping in price. They have to
Dave: Yeah. Well that's like third row in the upper bowl, but like lower bowl we could have got like a buck fifty for like the last row in the lower bowl.
Return of the Mac: You might get some you might get
some wind from outside up there, dude.
Dave: Third row? There's only two bowls.
3AM Puck Drop: The spear.
Dave: Hey brother, we're balling out of budget here. This is on the company dime. I gotta pick and choose my spot.
Return of the Mac: No. I know. I know.
3AM Puck Drop: That's pretty sick.
Return of the Mac: I do want to shout out my boy. I know I've been raving about him for two years now, but Mikey Cimont had a hattie down in Providence the other night. I know.
3AM Puck Drop: Good for him, man. Good for him.
Return of the Mac: I know. So he's you know what? He's taking taking charge of the opportunity, waiting for his number to get called. I think it will get called. at some point, although Potra is playing lights out. You smoke
Dave: Playing very good hockey, I was gonna say that.
Return of the Mac: He's almost at a point per
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Return of the Mac: game right now. I just don't know if his talents are best utilized in the fourth line. I think we all agree with that. So I think there's still an opportunity for EC Mont to get in there.
3AM Puck Drop: I think I I agree when you say that, but I kind of also look at how did Brad Marshan get his start. He he started playing with Sean Thornton and Gregory Campbell on that
Return of the Mac: Good point.
3AM Puck Drop: fourth line on that Merlot line. He he played 20 games or something, put up he put up a decent amount of points on the fourth line, limited minutes, and then they couldn't send him down. They couldn't keep him on the fourth line. So I th I wonder if it's gonna be the same approach with with Potse. obviously like I I'm not staying up till 4 a.m to watch the game so I don't know how he looked in San Jose. You can only really watch so much from the highlight package, but I was reading a couple write ups on the games and he made a a pretty jarring mistake that led to a goal. Like they left him out at the end of a penalty kill. But then Sturm put him right back out there the next shift. Like it's no No penalties for the guys, like not not penalty, no punishments for the guys. Like his leash is pretty long from what I can tell. So they're giving him opportunity. I mean, and and it's it's good to see him kind of seize the moment there and and really produce, which is something we haven't seen since our boy Franzi.
Dave: No, but this what we've been saying all along, Mike. It's like if they're gonna make a mistake, they're young, put back out there.
Return of the Mac: Hundred percent.
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave: You know? And like if the game excuse me, if the game's gonna be wide open, like six three, five, one, like let try some stuff, right? Like the wheels aren't gonna fall off that bad. And if they do, then like shorten the bench a little bit, we'll get back on track. That's okay. But Marco continuing to give the young guys a shot. Is a complete change of pace from Bru and Taki that we've watched in the past.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, I mean we came from Claude and Butch, who you you turn one over. You better you
Dave: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: better get comfortable at the end of that bench. You're not going back out there.
Dave: Untie your skates.
3AM Puck Drop: Get ready to learn Portland Mariners, buddy. That
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: brings me up to a question two that I kind of thought of on the way over to this pod. Where are you guys ranking the top four Boston coaches right now? I haven't I have an interesting angle that I don't think you'll side with me on.
Return of the Mac: Mm. So I my my
Dave: You had a long commute today, huh?
Return of the Mac: only my only problem with that is like I don't really know like like even like two thousand tens, I can't really remember who was
3AM Puck Drop: Active coaches. So active coaches. All four Boston
Dave: So you're ranking
3AM Puck Drop: Sports I'll go four, fourth,
Return of the Mac: okay.
3AM Puck Drop: fourth, Chad Tracy, third, Frabel, second, Sturm, first, Joe Mizzo. I love Joe Mizzo. He called into
Return of the Mac: Yeah. Yeah, Joe Mazzul is the man. He's the man.
Dave: He's electric.
3AM Puck Drop: ninety eight five today and he was like, Hey, turn the phone lines on. I want cut I want the customers to call me and ask me questions. So they he just had random fans calling and being like, Yeah, Joe, I d I don't know why you giving Tatum the ball at the end of the game and he's just dribbling it and d I was like the d he was just answering questions. I was like, This is absurd. He's an absolute sick bird. I love that guy.
Dave: That's incredible radio.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, that is good. And like
3AM Puck Drop: It wa it was great. It was great.
Return of the Mac: I love how you put Chad Tracy at at the number four spot because
3AM Puck Drop: I mean
Return of the Mac: his his his playoff his playoff appearance and I'm not even gonna call it a playoff appearance because
Dave: What appearance.
Return of the Mac: it's it's a fucking it's a it's a it's a what participation trophy. Like third third place like is ridiculous and they're popping sham
3AM Puck Drop: He's a puppet.
Return of the Mac: they're popping champagne before it. ridiculous. He he might not even be worth that contract that they gave him a three year extension after that playoff appearance. He was abysmal. Anyways, yeah, but I
3AM Puck Drop: He's just a puppet. Front office puppet.
Return of the Mac: I I I wholeheartedly agree with your list.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, you don't have to give me yours. I just wanted to talk about Missoula answering fan calls.
Dave: You set that up perfectly.
Return of the Mac: the other thing we have to talk about is Will Zellers. He is on Hobie Watch.
3AM Puck Drop: Lighting it up.
Return of the Mac: And I have a pretty crazy this is coming from Mark Cussy. most points by a North Dakota skater in an opening weekend. Zach Parisse with with eight back in two thousand two. Brock Besser with six back in two thousand sixteen. Will Zellers with six in
twenty twenty six is pretty good company.
Dave: You hear those other guys? You know who those other
3AM Puck Drop: Those guys are pretty good.
Dave: guys are?
Return of the Mac: they are very good.
Dave: NHL All Stars, one might say?
Return of the Mac: Yep. Yep. So
3AM Puck Drop: Olympians.
Return of the Mac: I don't wanna I I really wanna see him in a Bruins jersey. I'm not gonna say anything crazy. But if the Bruins did need to make a trade and boost the roster,
3AM Puck Drop: Dude.
Return of the Mac: I'm just saying I'm just saying if the if there's a trade out there that can boost this lineup, I'm not opposed.
Dave: Who's your target?
Return of the Mac: You know what? I th
3AM Puck Drop: Try Cidle.
Return of the Mac: Thank you for yeah, dry I dri dry so a hundred percent.
3AM Puck Drop: The loofed off.
Return of the Mac: I I'm out on the Edvinson stuff. I'm done I'm done. The NHL rumor report every single day. Boston's in it, Utah Mammoth are leading the
Dave: Put the bath salts down finally.
Return of the Mac: they're leading the charge. And then
3AM Puck Drop: Ha ha.
Return of the Mac: I log on to NHL dot com today and it says the Red Wings have quote unquote zero interest in trading Edvinson. Done. I don't want to see any more rumors. I don't want to see more mock trades. I don't want to see anything. We're done. Cut it out. No more. No one's no one's reading your garbage anymore. Get out of here.
3AM Puck Drop: You're addicted to the mock trades, B Cam. You you sniff it. Y you're like Dave Chappelle when
Dave: You get you get like a hit. It's like an addict. You're like, something new.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: he when he's when he's w Charlie Murphy. You're Charlie Murphy to the trades.
Return of the Mac: I I yeah, dude. I I I you know what? I I am an addict. I I love mock traits. I am always and forgive me for always trying to bol bolster this lineup. Forgive me.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Dave: You're laying in bed at three AM Marchenko, Marchenko, Marchenko. he's a leaf. He's a leaf. Larkin, Larkin, Larkin.
Return of the Mac: I you what March Mar Marchenko was officially erased from my brain when he put on the blue and white, so we're all done. Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: Good. Good.
Return of the Mac: But yeah, all done with Edvinson. I don't want to hear a single word about him any anymore.
Dave: The thing is though, right, like you mentioned like they're sellers for someone. This is the first time in a long time that we've had like back-to-back years of like young dudes who can come in and be good that like we as fans are excited about.
Return of the Mac: I still think he probably does one more after this.
Dave: Yeah, I could see that, but I think Dean the Dean Pop might
Return of the Mac: yeah.
Dave: might make the jump.
Return of the Mac: I think so too. He he looks
3AM Puck Drop: They played tonight.
Return of the Mac: he looks like a presence out there.
Dave: He looked good when they played N T D P. I granted it was N T D P but it was
Return of the Mac: He plotted one first game. They lost to Alaska. That's not great.
Dave: Not great. I think I think I think
3AM Puck Drop: The Nanox?
Dave: Anchorage also beat BU. I could be wrong, but they have
Return of the Mac: Are they wagging this year?
Dave: a couple of wins.
Return of the Mac: Okay.
3AM Puck Drop: That's crazy.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, I
Dave: I could be wrong.
Return of the Mac: this I mean this is this is kind of what we we manifested. We talked about Dean Pot putting up points and B C not being as great so Dean Pot can come up quickly. So
3AM Puck Drop: True. they
Dave: Win win. Shout out us for manifesting.
3AM Puck Drop: play St. Cloud State tonight. So
Return of the Mac: Oof.
3AM Puck Drop: let's keep an eye out on on on the Dean Pop. But yeah, it's one official game so far, and he does have one goal. So on pace for 35 or whatever they play. low key too. Vashar Blanik, the big I think he's Swedish.
Dave: The d the Swedish D man.
3AM Puck Drop: The big Swedish demon, he has like six points in three games right now. Three goals, three apples in the the Swedish elite league or whatever it is. Checked on
Return of the Mac: Damn.
3AM Puck Drop: that before we logged on, so Mason Lowe, right hot seat.
Dave: PJ Ax Axel and extension.
Return of the Mac: People people are still very butthurt about
3AM Puck Drop: Probably PJ's nephew.
Return of the Mac: god. people are really upset about
Dave: Here you have here.
3AM Puck Drop: Joey Harrington is pissed off at that.
Return of the Mac: Lowrai. They still, like despite him having a hot start, people are like, they want him gone.
Dave: He's the whipping boy.
3AM Puck Drop: He looks great.
Return of the Mac: I think he looks fantastic.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Dave: It's unfortunate that he's the whipping boy,
3AM Puck Drop: He he really does.
Dave: but he is.
Return of the Mac: We talked about early in the year. I and I said it. I was like, I think this is gonna be a big year for Low Rye. And i he's already coming out hot. And again, he can have fifty, sixty points. He's if he's dash seventeen, don't care. I literally don't care. We need offense on the D side. And he's giving that to us.
Dave: Yeah. I we if if if if it's all running through McAvoy, we're in trouble. Like we need the second layer. And he is that layer. And I mean the
Return of the Mac: Mm-hmm.
Dave: kid played forward most of his life. You know? Like he's he's
Return of the Mac: Then you're sixteen.
Dave: got the touch, like he sees the game. Like remember when he stepped in against the Leafs and he he made that play like off the half wall. I forgot who he found in the slot. It's like, damn, like he's got some skill. It's like, okay, cool. The kid, he's still young. Like,
Return of the Mac: No.
Dave: let the guy grow into his body.
Return of the Mac: I know.
Dave: You know, let him figure it out. Let him learn the game. Let him get more comfortable in the D zone. He'll get more support, right? Like, it
takes time. Like, people, like fans just want to see that it's an instant gratification world, right? They just want to see it happen right away. Like, take a breath, boys and girls. Like, it's gonna happen,
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave: you know.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah. And let's give a little sh couple clicks to Chucky Mack making his debut. Potts a nice one. Real strong
Dave: Gritty.
3AM Puck Drop: on his stick out front. It was nice. I thought he broke his arm when he got pushed into the net. He kind of laid down there for like
Dave: Or his face again.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: the extra second. I was like, fuck. But we're good. Welcome back. Looked sharp. Probably good to have him miss those first six games. I mean They survived without so
Dave: They did better than I thought they would in those first six without
Return of the Mac: Four and two without your number
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: one is pretty crazy. Against some like some really good
Dave: And they didn't give up a lot of goals.
Return of the Mac: teams.
Dave: I mean the Flyers they can't score. The Ker
Return of the Mac: they're
Dave: Kirill Kaprizov has more goals than the entire Flyers team last time I checked.
Return of the Mac: Dude, the Flyers are in trouble. They are in
Dave: Bad.
Return of the Mac: big, big trouble. That game that we watched Saturday, they it looked like a men's league hockey game, the way that the Bruins were controlling the puck. I think they had five
Dave: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: shots until like the latter half of the second. They're they're
Dave: Bad. Bad. I would say like
Return of the Mac: bad hockey team.
Dave: Yeah. I mean I would say like in McAlvoy's absence, the only like a game that really stuck out where it's like, man, like we could like was that Ottawa game where it was just at home where they just didn't really show up. Was like damn, like we could really could have had a guy like him back in the lineup to kind of settle things down,
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: make the simple play, make the easy play and not like have the yips almost with the puck and rely on some other guys and even the Minnesota game too to a certain extent. But I mean outside of that everyone take carried their weight, you know. It's just a matter of him staying healthy 'cause as the back as he goes, the back end is going to go.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, but Freddie Brune's been playing really well. Yeah, he k yeah.
Dave: Craig, that kid can skate, man, huh?
3AM Puck Drop: Looks great. He's a he's a full time NHL or he should not he the he shouldn't leave Boston for the for the rest of his life.
Return of the Mac: No. He had
Dave: Astro had a good run.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, I know. It's all right though.
3AM Puck Drop: He'll get some gain Aspro will he'll find his way back into the lineup though. I mean, they're d they're bound to get some injuries. Hampus is gonna like sprain a foot or something, doing God knows what. Yeah, he's gonna have some weird injuries. So
Dave: Break his other knee. We hope not. We hope not. We hope not.
3AM Puck Drop: no, we don't root for injuries, but Hampus is always doing some odd stuff. So I
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: don't know. Like if if Cliffy and Aspro are the guys sitting out right now. Ready to rotate in. I I'm good with that, honestly.
Return of the Mac: Mm-hmm.
3AM Puck Drop: As Don Sweeney once said, we're not gonna apologize for the depth of our hockey club. Henry Okiharyu's on Mars right now.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, I don't think he has any games at his his future in a bro and sweater.
3AM Puck Drop: I I hope not. He's playing for the Worcester Railers.
Return of the Mac: the Province Bruins are not great. I think they're one and four.
3AM Puck Drop: What really?
Return of the Mac: Yeah, in in our boy.
Dave: There was a goalie goal in Providence, though.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, he's good too. It was Simon's Ajax or something.
Dave: Merrimack kid.
3AM Puck Drop: Nah, that's not the Merrimack kid.
Dave: No, that's the other kid.
3AM Puck Drop: Sved Svedbeg?
Return of the Mac: Yeah. Yeah.
Dave: That's the Providence kids fed back.
3AM Puck Drop: See Lochmelis is sh
Dave: Stay hot, boys.
3AM Puck Drop: struggling to put up a little couple points. He only has like one assist.
Return of the Mac: I don't know if he has the supporting cast that he did the last couple of years. So
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: he might he might get buried down there. And like
3AM Puck Drop: So what does that say about Patra then? Like 'cause he was playing with Patra, wasn't he?
Return of the Mac: Yeah. What does that say about Easy Mont?
3AM Puck Drop: Selfish player.
Return of the Mac: Goal score.
Dave: I mean the thing is though like the baby bees have some names. Like they have guys who've played some legit NHL games.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, but that doesn't always mean
Dave: It's just w what's no, I know it doesn't correlate, but like what's the issue? Like new head coach, like like like
Return of the Mac: I see your point. I I see your point. Like
Dave: new coaching staff, like they got some
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: bot like Reichel, Ivan Ivan, like hilarious name, but like he he played some good games last year.
3AM Puck Drop: How's he doing?
Dave: how's Ivan Ivan doing? He has one assist in four games. He's gotta get going. Steve's
3AM Puck Drop: It's a loch mellow stat line too.
Dave: You know, like Jordan Harris, like there's some dudes down there just
Return of the Mac: Yeah, Reichel's off to a slow start two one on one.
3AM Puck Drop: Forgot we signed Jordan Harris again.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: Like they'll get going at some point, but there was a lot of turnover from that group from last year. But again, not a bad problem to have that we have guys who played on Austin last year. They're down and we have guys played who played in Providence, got some time playing up, right? Like
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave:
you kinda want that flow to a certain extent. You want to see the pipe moving, like about time Patra'sticking around, right? And Brunei, he's up, like I think he's Nothing against like Jordan Harris. I think he's Br Brune just has a bit more of the upside, right? So it's cool that he's
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave: he's beat someone out, he's worked hard, he's got that, and and Harris was a pretty regular NHLer for a good chunk of his career, right?
Return of the Mac: People forget he went f it was like a one for one trade with Line.
Dave: It's crazy.
Return of the Mac: Crazy.
3AM Puck Drop: That is crazy. Saw the bees were kicking some tires in in your space, B cam, the mock trades. Someone said that they were kicking tires on Patrick Line. I'm all I'm all set.
Return of the Mac: Mark Sinex. Mark Sinex.
Dave: Line Line I've been mock traded to every team in the league fifteen times.
Return of the Mac: He's a mock sig
3AM Puck Drop: The Bruins ha yeah, the Bruins have had him a couple of times.
Return of the Mac: He's he's a mock signing. He's a free agent. So no no trades happening. We're we're just absorbing. I I'm
Dave: He's too busy playing Xbox eating Twinkies.
3AM Puck Drop: We we don't want
Return of the Mac: I'm I'm the odd man out here. Give me Line A. Give me on the you know the right way.
Dave: He can he can shoot the pill.
3AM Puck Drop: No, no.
Return of the Mac: You can shoot the bill. Get Line on this roster. Get some get some absolute units out there. I want
3AM Puck Drop: Hey, hey, have you guys thought
Dave: He's a house. Yeah, he is a house too.
3AM Puck Drop: have you guys thought pastas looked a little bit slower this year? Like noticeably
Dave: Yes, I do.
3AM Puck Drop: slower. Almost like it's on purpose. Like it almost looks like he's trying to slow the game down. Well,
Dave: Well, we we said that, then we ate our words, and he scored seventeen goals against Utah.
3AM Puck Drop: not necessarily He did. He he did light Utah up, but I'm not saying like affecting his scoring, but it seems like he's adjusting his style and I don't know what I don't know. It he looks noticeably slower foot speed wise.
Return of the Mac: I don't disagree, but I I think you're on to something with him being strategic with it. I think
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Return of the Mac: like he's definitely more he's definitely pass first more. Like that's that's without a doubt. but I think it I maybe that's the role that he thinks he can take with this roster now to 'cause like I I'm I'm looking at a a a thing right now, it's NHL teams ranked by individual scal scores. Bruins have sixteen individual goal scorers right now, number one in the league, which is crazy staff.
3AM Puck Drop: I will not apologize for the depth of our hockey club. Don Sweeney. Wayne Gretzky.
Return of the Mac: No, God, no. No.
Dave: Nope, breath of participation.
Return of the Mac: And like the other thing, too, like, pasta, like knock on wood, has played pretty much every game of his career.
Dave: Hana Aki.
Return of the Mac: Tons of hockey. And like, I think he did
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: he even he played like worlds because they were in the check. He's always played hot.
3AM Puck Drop: He's always playing worlds. He's always playing worlds.
Dave: Yeah, loves it. Like the dude loves the game. But to your point though, like he's picking his spots. Maybe that extends his like have someone else like go do the dirty work a little bit, right? Like he do he definitely does look a little slower, but I don't think it's clearly hasn't negatively impacted anything. He's
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave: just picking his spots and turning it on. Imagine being that good, you can just turn it on and you want to be a playmaker one day and a goal scorer the next, like
3AM Puck Drop: Also, I mean, it's October 15th. Like, the
Dave: It's long season.
3AM Puck Drop: dude, it's 84 games this year. Like, he could honestly be conserving energy. Look at him the last few playoff runs. Like, he he has gone on record to say, yeah, I haven't performed to my level that I want to be. Like maybe he's saving it.
Return of the Mac: That's a crazy statement. Put up like a hundred the last four years.
3AM Puck Drop: At all.
Dave: nuts and you're still producing. It's like what? You have 300 points? It is nuts though.
Return of the Mac: Always hungry.
Dave: Yeah. Don't settle. Hey, he was in the always hungry league.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, he was.
3AM Puck Drop: He was. He was.
Dave: You know?
Return of the Mac: the the Zodorov fight with Nurse was was a tilt. And it was kind of funny that they went at each other
Dave: For real.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah. Smacked them.
Return of the Mac: because of like that so called trade that the Bruins were g supp like supposedly making with Sidorov for Nurse. I didn't I maybe that
3AM Puck Drop: true. I didn't even think about that.
Return of the Mac: yeah, I don't I don't know if there was any like I don't know supporting evidence to that, but that was just something that popped in my head. But if you watch towards the end of the fight after Zadorov beats the wheels off of him, he Nurse is falling to the ice and Zodorov puts his hand underneath Nurse's head just to ensure that he doesn't his head off the ice. So good guy Zodorov. So it was
3AM Puck Drop: Good guy move.
Dave: Good guy move.
Return of the Mac: it was a friendly tilt, but if if you didn't catch the last five seconds of that you wouldn't have thought it was friendly because Zodorov was chucking them.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Dave: throwing bombs.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: Hey, you gotta respect the game though. If you're gonna chuck them, respect the game.
Return of the Mac: We haven't seen Jano go yet, right? I'm I'm not I'm not going crazy, right?
3AM Puck Drop: Think people are afraid of
Return of the Mac: I think people are
Dave: No, yeah.
Return of the Mac: too. He's been barking. He's been he's been up and down the bench just calling
everybody out. I think to your point, Mikey, I think people are afraid. I can we is there a bet you can take like Tanner Jano like over one fight next game? Cause I he's due for
3AM Puck Drop: Wish.
Return of the Mac: fight.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, so
Dave: It's gotta be it's gotta be all depending who they're playing. Then you can hammer that.
Return of the Mac: Anaheim, yeah. maybe Vill.
3AM Puck Drop: There's there's definitely not a line for that. veal parm.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, he might be going Ville Parm next game.
Dave: Don't they
3AM Puck Drop: You might have to get on like
Dave: have that Johnston kid too? He can chuck it in Anaheim where they had him last year.
Return of the Mac: actually him and Johnson went af went went at each other last year. Good good tilt. Yeah, he's humongous. And he's
Dave: He's a big boy. He's a big boy.
3AM Puck Drop: I don't I don't think DraftKings would have that. You'd probably have to go to Kalchi to get a line like that.
Return of the Mac: I'm pretty sure that Johnson came out after that and was like, holy cow. I didn't
Dave: Like
Return of the Mac: re I didn't I didn't realize the opponent I had in that that fight.
Dave: That dude's for real. Did you guys see the McKinnon hints scrap?
Return of the Mac: Good.
Dave: That was a scrap. Sean Avery had a hilarious breakdown of McKinnon walking down. He's like, he he's got his little pointer out and all like the Dallas Ice Girls are like sitting in a row. He's like, look at her. She's checking him out or something like that. Then he keeps walking.
3AM Puck Drop: Ha ha ha.
Dave: He's like, look at these bombs. I mean, the bees play the Avs, Jano and McKinnon. McKinnon's like, he's he dude, he's I'm
Return of the Mac: fuck no. That's not gonna happen.
3AM Puck Drop: my god.
Dave: hey, I'm I'm getting over my skis a bit. But he's been chucking them this year.
Return of the Mac: Yeah, he has been, but like
Dave: He's been playing like a madman.
Return of the Mac: Philippe Philippe texted me individually. He was like, I think people are I I think he's a top three fighter in the league.
3AM Puck Drop: Who? Jano? Okay,
Return of the Mac: Yeah, yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: I thought you meant McKinnon. I was like Mc he's just gooning
Dave: Yeah. Imagine McKinnon.
Return of the Mac: No, no, no. Fleep Fleep was like Fleep was like
3AM Puck Drop: it up.
Return of the Mac: yeah, peop I think I think people are under estimating how much he can chuck
Dave: We just need more of a sample size.
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, they're they're literally afraid of him. I was listening to Bill Burr on part of my take, and he was telling a story
Return of the Mac: He was so good.
3AM Puck Drop: about how like he was golfing with an old NHL enforcer or something that was telling a story about how like a game was getting really chippy or something. And then the enforcer would go on the ice and just yell, like not to anyone in particular, but just yell out loud, better settle down, somebody's gonna get hurt out here, and then like The game just like settles down, everyone like starts behaving. It was hilarious.
Return of the Mac: So yeah, we're all good. All good.
Dave: Like, all right, we're good. Back to playing hockey.
Return of the Mac: No worries.
Dave: Back to playing hockey.
Return of the Mac: That was my bad. Yeah.
3AM Puck Drop: That's literally Janel though. Jano Jano's that guy. He's that dude.
Dave: He's him.
Return of the Mac: Any and something to note, something to call out, he's been wearing the assistant captain over was it was it ham was it Hampus?
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah, 'cause McAvoy got Hampus' A.
Return of the Mac: Yeah. So that's they he must be he must
Dave: Says a lot.
Return of the Mac: he must be big on the leadership group.
3AM Puck Drop: Dude, keep it. Keep him keep him with the A all year. I
Return of the Mac: I know.
3AM Puck Drop: love an A on the fourth line. I think that's electric.
Return of the Mac: Yeah. And and also calling out like Potra playing with those two, like they're they are fourth liners, but they do have some skill to them. Cast I mean Castleck
3AM Puck Drop: For sure.
Return of the Mac: Cassick had Lee his highest career points last year. I think Janel was just right around his his career high too. they can
3AM Puck Drop: Yeah.
Return of the Mac: play.
Dave: That also gives Pach a lot of space
3AM Puck Drop: For sure.
Dave: though, right? Like
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
Dave: as a smaller guy, like not not the biggest dude, like he he he can kinda do some get away with some stuff that he normally
Return of the Mac: And also no one's gonna take runs at him either.
3AM Puck Drop: Mm-hmm.
Dave: True. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
Return of the Mac: Yeah.
