leafs cup parade is officially cancelled forever

These recaps are like sportscenter but with humour and without all the other sports I dont care about. 10/10

Your continued nonchalant use of “The Injured Reserves” for identifying the team based in Las Vegas is absolutely fantastic. Don’t stop.

Bobrovsky doesn't get enough recognition, dude is 35 and still can do a front facing split

This has to be the end of Shanahan and the end of Keefe. It's honestly shocking the leafs didn't move on from Keefe after Dubas got the axe with Berube available.

That camera angle on the Rempe/Van Riemsdyk hit makes Rempe look like a freakin’ kaiju

Swayman not getting enough credit in this vid! That man is a goalie possessed right now

Toronto needs a Thanos snap level purge. Even as a rival Canucks fan I'm getting more pissed at them than happy at their failure. Like come the fuck on the Canucks are probably going to have more playoff success in the past 10 years than the laffs once everything is said and done. We've only been in the playoffs for two of those years.

Thanks for taking time to talk about goaltending. I imagine goaltenders get into a mindset of "nothing else is going in" and then we get to enjoy the wacky saves that manifest from that.

babe wake up new hockey psychology video dropped

Leafs game 4 was embarrassing to watch, wasn’t worth going to the bar that’s for sure

The funniest part about this will be when other teams give the Leafs twenty cents on the dollar when trading some of their stars.

Bobrovsy is a goalie with a very interesting history. In the season before he won the Vezina Trophy he played really badly and he questioned his play and his future as an NHL goalie. He was obviously close to call it quits. But then he went to Helsinki for the summer and worked with a group of goalie coaches who worked with about 10 other NHL goalies. He was not only able to stabilize his play but to completely turn it around. Since then there was not much stopping him. The combination of hard work, mental strength, confidence, and technical skills make him one of the very best for the last 10 years. Aside from Bob - its play-off time and it must feel like Christmas for most NHL fans. The intensity is great, the refs don't give a s.... about the rules, and it shows that a play-off winner is not born overnight. I believe it must be an age issue that one brings the urgency and toughness together for the few weeks that count. Talent might bring you to the play-offs, but hard work and sheer determination wins you rounds. It's not just Marner not showing up in Toronto...

Leaf parade status: cancelled for perpetuity

Playoff bobrovsky is insane

The Leafs have absolutely no camaraderie that it's bizarre. All players from championship winning teams will say something during interviews like, "This was the tightest team I've ever been on, I love my teammates!" But the Leafs don't even do anything off the ice. They need to trade absolutely everyone except for Nylander and Domi, the only two players that bother showing up.

"I'm furious because I'm sitting with the suits." Hell yeah.

Mitch Marner is an 11 million dollar bum. And I know people will say he’s the only one that scored yesterday, but just because he had one good play doesn’t negate the fact of his piss poor effort, zero heart and lack of urgency. The Mitch Marner that I was watching was flopping all over the place looking at the refs for penalty calls, afraid to go into the corners, avoiding contact like a coward, and didn’t forecheck or backcheck. I knew Mitch Marner was a bum when I saw him avoid McAvoy in the corner and allowed him to make a uncontested break out pass in game 1. He’s an absolute embarrassment.

The leafs definitely have a coaching problem, they play decently well 5 on 5 but when you look at the PP especially (no diddy) its clear that the system is messed up and they cant get shots on the net

The Vegas Long Term Injury List is having a good first round.

Favorite channel on RU-vid!! I learned so much about hockey through this channel.

There needs to be some major changes in Toronto. This core has had plenty of chances to make some progress, and they haven't.

Nothing Better than playoff hockey. Best time of the year!!

As a Sharks fan, we just use beer, rum, and the occasional shot of tequila when our players piss us off.

"Where mama hide the cookies!" Dear RJ, I'll miss you forever🥲

Everyone shows Marchand knocking over bertuzzi and ignores the fact that bertuzzi did the exact same thing to Marchand about 10 seconds prior

"May be the dumbest penalty in the playoffs" Tom Wilson: "Hold my beer"

Holy cow the leafs have unlocked a new level of awfulness, looks like MLSE have some big decisions to make. Shanahans probably gone a long with Keefe, time to completely rebuild the d corps and trade Marner so we have some actual cap space to play with. It's going to be a long summer.....🤦🏻

Las Vegas injured reserve here, I love your videos. You cover everything well and I look forward to your uploads as it sheds more light than ESPN will here in the states.

Georgiev's turnaround from game 1 has surprised me the most

Loved seeing the phone celebrate at 19:30 as well 😂

leafs are having a complete meltdown. if they end up losing in Boston, I expect a lot of player movement this summer

Jesus Logan Thompson moves well for such a big guy. He's such a nice pickup for Vegas. They must have the most bizarre goaltending history for any seven year period in NHL history.

These recaps are awesome man! Just know that people appreciate the shit out of you making them. Thank you

This channel is such a gem 💎 much respect and thanks!

Truly some next-level goaltending last week!!!

LOVE your channel man!!!

Thank you for this! Best nhl hockey channel ever

Love the content! Keep up the great work!

Verhaeghe is third all time in playoff goals (tied with 3 other guys)

These wrapups are so clutch. Even though I watch tons of the games, it's great to help remember everything that happened.

Great recap! Thanks!

It’s “The Sunshine State Showdown.” Alberta has the battle.

That Bobrovsky save was nasty

been loving your content the last few weeks, definitely the best hockey content out there. love the analysis and it's so much better than whats on TV if you're looking for ways to improve, i'd try flashing the score of each game for a few seconds while you're wrapping it up, or even every time you show a goal

No way we got the face reveal at 6:49. Good looking guy

Love your channel brother! Always look forward to seeing you upload. You give such a good breakdown of all the games even during regular season. Keep it going bro👍

lessgo stars!!

Dude your channel is awesome

You know your a big deal in the hockey community when you put NHL clips in your videos and still get ads on your videos. Big ups bro

11:53 Mr. Anderson is the best easter egg ever

"chops down Bertuzzi" lol

Mini deep-dive on the Leafs: 1) When they (Dubas) signed Tavares, he wasn't what they needed. The Leafs were 5th in the league in scoring the year prior. 1a) The Leafs signed Tavares knowing his contract would age poorly. (Last year Tavares was 72nd in the league in scoring while making 11M). 1b) Tavares should be an 'A', not a 'C'. (My vote is Morgan Reilley for 'C'). 2) Every year the Leafs do the following: i) Think the latest goalie: Campbell, Murray, Samsonov is their savior. Meanwhile Freddie Andersen was all that was wrong and he seems to be doing ok in Carolina. ii) Shuffle the 'D' corps around. 3) I have never seen a coach mix-n-match lines more than Sheldon Keefe. Granted, I don't watch every game, but dayamn. 4) Somebody tell me what experience or credentials Brendan Shanahan had to be made President of Hockey Operations. Great player? Definitely. Run a business? Mmm, let's pump the brakes on that. For Toronto fans: * IF * the Leafs fire no one, keep Shanahan, and run the "Core-4" back AGAIN, then you know winning is secondary to TSG.

Good video as always HP.... Hope you had fun at the game even though the loss.. Trust me I feel ya on that pain 😏.. The VGKs are like a puzzle .. We figured out the rush, then we figured out the zone, now we got to figure out their lights out goaltending!!!!!! As long as we continue to show up and play Stars hockey, we have a good chance.. Either way this is one hell of a series that stresses me out!!

19:30 somebody just chucked there phone

What really hurts Washington is the fact that all their defenders keep getting hurt. Jensen, Sandin, then Iorio, and TVR. They played a majority of game 3 with only 5 defenders.

amazing night ngl. although the bruins winning in such a way was a slap in the face hahaha! brad was cookin.

I’d 100% listen to a weekly podcast if you ever make one.

Logan was crazy yesterday, knights allowed multiple times break aways and he saved all of them.

Skipping over the Kane Englund fight?!? C’mon!

Forgot to mention that sergachev returned in game 4

It's the Flail in Florida. And didn't someone have a Gordie Howe Hat Trick? Great vid!!!!

We need to talk about Logan Thompson. I know he's on Vegas but holy he's showing his playoff chops.

Terrific recap! I'm terrified! GO AVS GO

In context the Panarin "hit" on Oshe was super important. Oshie was roughing him up all game (face washing, general gooning) and eventually caught him with a high stick to the face. It was awesome to see Panarin deck him as he isn't known for physical play. It fired him up and I think he'll carry that for the rest of the playoffs.

the leafs really should have held a parade for winning this years all star game

I have an unreasonable hatred for that stars fan who holds the “BANG” sign

I think they’re about to make me go Mittlestadt mode!

Good win stars!

I've been waiting on this one.

Let’s go RANGERS!!

Brad Marchand has ascended from just being a rat to the Rat King!

It's time for the heroes! Go boys go!!!!

ROOF DADDY OH Jr.? lmao

As a Bruins fan, I know we arent out of the woods yet. The one game the Leafs won they outclassed us for damn near the whole game so the boys need to be sharp and close this out as fast as possible. If they dont then history is definitely on the side of Bruins in a BOS vs TOR game 7 in Boston but Id still love to avoid a game 7 entirely.

How am I the only person talking about this face reveal?

I’m just gonna sit here and wait for my stars fans to pile up. Screw Vegas btw

" Patience of a monk and goes roof daddio junior ". There is no chance in hell your chirp game isn't Shoresy level gahahaha

I know it's not gonna happen because they're playing Toronto, but dude if Boston somehow manages to do another choke job it's gonna be hilarious

Bobrovsky is really showing himself to be the best goaltender in the league now. Hallebuyck is absolutely falling apart but Winnipegs D is doing them absolutely NO favors... leaving him to hang out to dry multiple times. That Winnipeg series is basically over. Bobrovsky on the other hand is going to be EXTREMELY hard to beat. Dude is in the matrix, completely locked in.

Bobrovsky is on fire again...

Thonposon was a beast 45 blocks

BEST HOCKEY CONTENT PERIOD!!!!!!

What is up with this Matthews illness? I need to know because I'm in charge of refreshments for the Leaf Cup Parade and I need to know if I should be placing an order or not

Toronto needs some one that has 6 goals in three games or someone that has the third highest PPG in regular and playoff history.

Patrice Bergeron took multiple paycuts to help the Bruins win. Matthews last summer? He expected to get paid. One wants to win, one wants the money. Bergeron and Marchand combined costed as much as him last season. I would organize my team around Bergeron over Matthews any day of the week.

"The jets are so good at supporting the puck" so good they're down 3-1.

at 19:30, is that a phone that goes flying? lmao

I am scared for anyone who has to score on Bob and Vasi!

Dallas just wanted it more last night and you could tell. VGK let Thompson down imo, getting a performance like that and not potting one more, not to take anything away from Otter. That series is far from over

Leafs fan here. We honestly need to purge the whole team. Keep the players worth building around. Knies and Reilly are the ones I would keep. Fucking trade the "superstars" for some players that are afraid to lose. This leaf core lost the fear of losing, hence the terrible hockey. In their minds they already lost after game 1. Pick up some players with some heart and hustle, obviously having the best goal scorer currently isn't anything. Now I see why there was an argument of what's more impressive, 70 goals or 100 assists. Any Canadian teams have some room for an extra fan?

"Ever dream of making money while you sleep?" I only dream in my sleep so yeah.

Nylander's Migraines = Marchand hits. And he says "he's still Fin pissed about it."

Let's all say a prayer for Leafs fans because good gravy, they are fighting demons as we speak

Rempe is to damn big to be declining dropping the gloves with anyone especially with how many fights he gets into😂

I LOVE your ''cancel the parade'' takes. They're even funnier after you announce the parade is back on. Comedic genius, and I hope it goes on for decades.

Honest question bc I've noticed it across many YT channels... Is the way that you read your script a specific speech pattern that you learned? The style, intonation, and cadence of it seems to be quite popular.

I'm a Dallas fan but it feels like they are legit ready to go off. I think Vegas has been getting lucky and their luck is running out.

Grind? Four games is a grind? 😂
