this man will be sorely missed, you guys made a massive mistake
Jeff Marek should be waived or bought out. He isn't bad in small doses but a full show drives me to drink
hated this episode... we get it you don't like fighting. left annoyed after this episode
same stories on 32 thoughts
guys this is a baseball show
Merrick drives me nuts. Always repeating himself, saying bagel instead of zero and thinking that makes him "sick," interrupting co-hosts because he thinks his ridiculous takes need to be said immediately.
This was an attempt to injure. A hit to the head guys. This is hard to listen to.
Well, I'm happy I don't have to hear the Toronto bias for the rest of the playoffs.
Man awesome playoff games and we're listening to Toronto talk about Kap trades and social/political issues. I understand the importance of the issue but, this week the headlines im interested in have been buried.
Curious what people think of Marek as host, especially Canadian listeners?
The day the Staley cup gets a sponsor is the day I walk away from NHL hockey
Wish this podcast could ALWAYS be led by Jeff Marek! Love the fun all three guys have together! When Jeff is replaced with David Amber, it's way less pleasant to listen to. It feels like he belittles Justin and Anthony's comment or he's above everyone else... It does not feel like they're "a team" just like when Jeff is there..
wassup
Not specific to this episode, but just feedback overall from a Calgary fan living in Denver... I really enjoy the perspectives from guys that have played at the top level. I've also gained an appreciation for Burke's take on subjects. I don't always agree, but respect him explaining his positions and his candidness. Despite your appease to the Toronto audience, this has become a staple for my afternoon commute, which is typically only 35-45 minutes. The only reason I've ever wished to have a longer commute is so I could get through all 90 minutes of each episode before getting home. Keep the quality going in 2020!
Is this a NHL podcast or a Maple Leafs podcast?
Seattle will win a cup before Toronto
so since everyone got fired is the show cancelled?
The whole show is great I'm sure but i came to listen to Lindros. Starts at 28:05 if that's you too
may be a sound quality issue. I'm hearing little laggy glitches. could be the app, could be my phone, pretty sure it's this episodes audio.
why do the care so much about "Canadian teams" 1/2 the guys on every NHL team are from Canada anyway. You didn't see us whining about the Blue Jay's winning the WS 2 years in a row.
