Ep.265 - The WAY Too Early SEASON PREDICTIONS Episode

Ep.260 - Worst Case Scenario Stanley Cup
Aight folks, this is the nightmare finals matchup -- at least for one of us. There is light at the end of the tunnel, however.. because the Leaf's may be choosing between Peter Laviolette or Patrick Roy for their head coach vacancy.

Ep.256 - Talk Ya Shit, Pasta
Aight folks, the Bruins have extended the series to Game 6 on the back of Jeremy Swayman with a nod to Pastrnak with a huge OT winner.

Ep.255 - Sabre Rattled
Aight folks -- I'm typing this from my hotel lobby and I did not edit this any further than tossing the intro and "mf go b's" outro on the audio file I was sent. So who knows, this might just be an hour + of Andrew and Ian dogwalking me and calling me "Daddy" in a multitude of unflattering ways. However, my hope is that they talk about this BRUINS/SABRES PLAYOFF SERIES and HOW B'S IN 5 IS STILL ON THE TABLE. I just jinxed it, didn't I. I'm sorry. Go B's. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed.

Ep.253 - JAMES HAGENS IS A BOSTON BRUIN w/ Court Lalonde of Bruins Diehards
Aight folks, Ian is in Italy indulging in more than just meatballs -- so we have brought in longtime friend, host of Bruins Diehards and knower of puck, Court Lalonde. OBVIOUSLY there's some big news to discuss on this episode. No, not the four game losing streak. NO not the limp towards clinching a wild card. We're of course going to talk about the news that dropped just hours before recording -- James Hagens has signed a 3-year ELC and will report to Boston immediately. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed.

Ep.251 - HAGENS UPDATE, and an Unrelated Victory Lap
Aight folks, the SSP is back again this week and there's no shortage of James Hagens discourse to spew out into the podwaves. We slap some lazy takes down and set reasonable expectations going forward. What percentage chance does he end up in Boston? (pssst.. it'll happen, just breathe). Andrew wants to make sure it's mentioned multiple times that he's tied for first in the predictions. Plus -- YOUR VOICEMAILS and LOTS OF EYE CONTACT. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online.

Ep.250 - WE AIN'T LEAVIN'
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY TIMES. Quite the milestone for us, and what better way to celebrate than to talk about a team that cannot protect a two goal lead if their lives depended on it! 4 out of 6 points on the road is a win though, right? We have to talk about Andrew Peeke. We have to discuss A LOT of things. Plus your VOICEMAILS, our PREDICTIONS, and much more. GET IN. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online.

Ep.249 - Literally DEADline
Aight folks, serious question that we have to ask eachother -- did the Bruins win or lose at the deadline? And who were the biggest winners and losers?
