00:00 - 00:05 | My roommate invited his friend over to watch the Canucks game with us |
00:05 - 00:07 | I'm like cool, the more the merrier. |
00:07 - 00:10 | Just bring some beer and be cool, you know? |
00:11 - 00:16 | And the guy comes in wearing a Megna jersey... |
00:17 - 00:21 | Turns out this dude is a Benning bro |
00:21 - 00:24 | for real |
00:29 - 00:31 | for real!! |
00:31 - 00:34 | and the fucker brought Labatt Blue |
00:38 - 00:40 | Labatt Blue!! |
00:41 - 00:47 | he starts to tell us how Benning "masterminded" the Schmidt trade and it didn't fall in his lap |
00:47 - 00:50 | claimed he didn't waste a week trying to land OEL |
00:50 - 00:56 | and that his cap management isn't an issue |
00:58 - 00:59 | isn't an issue!! |
00:59 - 01:01 | no problems at all! |
01:04 - 01:06 | 4 x $3M for Jay Beagle? |
01:06 - 01:08 | 5 x $4.3M for Brandon Sutter? |
01:13 - 01:14 | seriously? |
01:14 - 01:16 | so many awful contracts |
01:16 - 01:20 | this guy says they were needed as mentors |
01:21 - 01:27 | Eriksson mentoring from the press box I guess |
01:35 - 01:36 | sitting up there |
01:36 - 01:39 | checking his phone to see if his fat cheque got deposited |
01:41 - 01:44 | So I say "He traded a pick and a top prospect |
01:44 - 01:47 | for a handful of games from Toffoli" |
01:47 - 01:49 | and this guy says |
01:50 - 01:53 | "no big deal" |
01:54 - 01:56 | no big deal... |
01:56 - 01:58 | just like that |
01:58 - 02:02 | The mastermind can't move his shitty contracts |
02:05 - 02:07 | so we're fucked |
02:10 - 02:11 | wast ...wasting... |
02:11 - 02:13 | *wheeeeze* |
02:15 - 02:17 | wasting the entry level years of |
02:17 - 02:20 | Petey and Hughes' contracts |
02:21 - 02:28 | Toews and Kane won 2 cups before they signed their big contracts |
02:29 - 02:30 | and added Hossa |
02:30 - 02:32 | but we couldn't afford Toffoli at $4M |
02:36 - 02:39 | $4M tied up in Sutter is better I guess |
02:40 - 02:42 | It makes me sick to my stomach |
02:50 - 02:55 | One more year, then Petey and Hughes get paid big |
02:56 - 02:58 | But he's good at drafting, no? |
02:58 - 03:04 | That was what we were told when he came to Vancouver |
03:04 - 03:09 | but he wanted Glass not Petey, and Linden overruled him |
03:09 - 03:11 | ...He traded so many valuable picks |
03:16 - 03:20 | Remember Gudbranson? |
03:23 - 03:26 | was going to be the next captain |
03:31 - 03:36 | Benning, man. If I don't laugh I'll cry. Seriously. |
