So what are the next moves to be made, Zach?

Well, I mean, the obvious answer here, and you guys can push back, and I completely get it, but it's...

We don't do that on the show.

You have to remodel this thing.

No, you have to remodel this thing.

So what I'm going to say is the things that are the easy, low-hanging fruit to the fans, and they keep saying, and I finally have cracked to the point where I'm like, yeah, you probably actually just do need to get rid of these guys.

But you have to look at your Max Domi's.

Yeah.

Is that the year you were born? Yeah.

Can you rile yourself up like you did last night? I don't know if you can.

Yeah, I mean, basically what I've said, and you guys can jump in here if this is stupid or this won't work at all, because this is something that just kind of started to happen in my brain last night.

I was like, all right, this is the direction of the Maple Leafs, and we're going to be okay.

They're too good to be... too bad.

That's just, unfortunately, the reality.

And that's what you saw here when you played Vancouver on Saturday, when you played Calgary on Monday night.

Because, yes, they've won three in a row, but let's just call it what it is.

I...

... yourself up like you did last night? I don't know if you can.

[laughs] Yeah, I, I mean, basically what I've said, and you guys can jump in here if this is stupid, or this won't work at all, because this is something that, that just kinda started to happen in my brain last night, and I was like, "All right.

If you watch those games, they were terrible hockey games by both teams.

Like, it wasn't just the Leafs playing a bad team.

Like, free forum.

Like, is that, is that what we're going with here? Like what is different about them? We made fun of that firing.

I know.

I did too.

I did a reaction video after and I was like, are you fucking kidding me? This is the only move that was made.

I came on here and talked with you guys about it the last time and was like, Craig Berube's got to go.

And for me, that wasn't a shot at Berube.

That wasn't a dislike of him or anything.

That's intense shit you guys got going

firing.

i know i did too i i did a reaction video after and i was like are you fucking kidding me this is the only move that was made i came on here and talked with you guys about it the last time uh and was like craig berube's gotta go and for me that wasn't a shot at berube that wasn't a dislike of him or anything it was just like some shit's got to change in there and i I don't know.

Colby, Laz, you guys would know better than I would.

But just from what I'm seeing, stylistically, they've changed here a little bit as well.

They're playing with possession more.

They're playing a faster-paced game.

They get up the ice much better.

That's intense shit you guys got going

I vividly remember that, and he played like Carey Price last year.

Yeah, I mean, I'm glad Rosie's joining me on the show tonight, and I was listening to you guys right from the top, and I heard Rosie saying, we're interested to see how this goes, and Nick, you brought up it's either going to be the best team in the world, they're going to win the Stanley Cup, or just blow it all up.

Yeah.

That's exactly what's going to happen after this game tonight.

So that's what I'm not looking forward to.

But I'm just happy to be back talking about real hockey.

You know, the preseason, I did the one postgame show.

He's more of a lope in the chat right now.
