I love how they called arguably the biggest pod of the year “Divorce?”

[@Posit_Zero_Blue]

Adam should do an ad for a divorce lawyer just to troll everyone back lol!

[@codywieland2322]

The man knows things about things that affect him i.e dickshavers. He should already be in on this!

[@borafett3005]

Not their demographic but there's a legal service literally called Adam as an acronym for the American Divorce Association for Men.

[@Chimeratech8]

Chris has so much personality that he only gets to show on podcasts like this. Wish Sportsnet gave him more leeway to goof around instead of just being the ultra-professional reporter all the time.

[@yc_zhang]

Maybe

Great show everyone, as always....also, Divorce?

Dude Chris Johnston is awesome.

[@WhoFan2020]

1:25:00 is a legendary moment

[@truenorthben]

Jessie was having none of it through the whole stint.

[@grabarcnr]

God I still can't get over how Good Chris looks, man. It's so inspiring.

[@thisismarkbro]

@Jeepman89 i think he lost weight

[@Wayne_155]

He talked at the beginning of the podcast, that he's been running every day for the last 400+ days at an average of 10 KMs. Good on reporter Chris. Very inspiring

[@MrChristopho]

Oh man, that last stretch before the sign-off was so good. They flat out broke Steve.

[@vinttoni]

They were talking about who listens to the show. Add Evander Kane to that list, Divorce announced.

[@rpgeek22]

As a preds fan that watches this podcast every episode even tho it's a leafs podcast this was epic

[@CP_SplitTheDefense]

How did you make it through all Adams criticism?!?!

[@vj5107]

Bolts fan watching every episode

Kings fan. Too bad there aren't great podcasts about our own teams so we're all here lol

Always a great show when CJ is on! Great job boys!!!

[@vincent6718]

Chris Johnston is my favourite guest you have

[@Stoney037]

I love CJ when he comes on. I love his personality when he can show it

[@brianhawryluk680]

None of my friends Recreaction the way Steve did when Adam mentioned CJ, I think I need new friends

[@goleafsgo332000]

One of my Fav SDPN episodes ever!!!!

[@ahuynh52]

sometimes u can just tell people are slowly losing it…. looking at u steve

[@drivethru6155]

Digging in on Adam around 1:23:00 is the funniest thing I have watched in weeks beyond gameshow fail compilations 🤣

[@sensorglitch]

I'm amused Adam didn't go with Baby-Momma and most people tend to these days

[@rodchallis8031]

That's how you can tell a person is real classy, when they say "baby momma".

[@abyssshriek7631]

Divorce?!?

[@mikmack1449]

Always love the shows with Mr. Johnston. He is a heavy weight ball buster. Another testament to the friendships you share. Nice one man! 🧡

[@misslolohannah]

Divorce?

[@mattrobilliard7808]

For those that missed it, they were talking about Buffalo and eichel getting traded/divorced.

[@MrBellsa61]

Carolina starts being cheap af shortly after having to pay Aho's bonuses. Literally the only player on the team with signing bonuses. No coincidence.

[@kimjoshua9733]

This is the perfect title after the Evander Kane news

[@andypiertz7387]

At 8:05 CJ says Hall really wants to win and Steve just don’t agree according to his face expression

[@rodchallis8031]

Divorce? I've been married twice. (so far -- I've already established a learning disability in that regard) I refer to my "ex" as "My first, and so far, least favorite wife". My current wife is "My current, and so far, most favorite wife." When in doubt, no one will ever fault you for accuracy.

[@averymerlo4499]

Divorced?

[@georgebartlett8576]

Is it just me or do Adam and his Mother have identical laughs & mannerisms? Love it...

[@goleafsgo332000]

Watching this podcast is like having ice cream. Add CJ, I’m eating a sundae. So awesome 😎!

[@Rastamon66]

Best pod these guys have ever done

[@alexdockrill]

Unexpected early drop love it

[@bruins7708]

Love this podcast have not laughed that hard in a long time for three days now all I can think is saying divorce after everything lmao peanut butter. Divorce instant classic.

[@kroot0x]

A billion dollars this off season, been crazy, I love it!

[@mitchellfielding4821]

you guys are legends! can't wait for next season!

[@TomSnipes10]

Love you guys, and Chris as well. Another great episode 🙌🙌🙌

[@tyler_okamoto]

what I would do to laugh again like Steve towards the end of the podcast.

[@goldpanner]

Nutty pod, boys. Like peanut butter or divorce.

[@LivingWithSpinaBifida]

Oooh! Yay! was my first reaction when seeing CJ on screen. totally forgot he was supposed to be on the show today!

[@MuskokaMatt91]

Is it possible to get the time stamp for Adams paid ads I don't wanna sit through 5 mins it would be helpful to know where it is so we can skip ahead

[@Hockeyhobo89]

When was the last time the podcast was this early?

[@majorpaul2009]

I don't know but we were probably still able to go to Leafs games. Theoretically, of course, us common folk were never able to go.

[@ryandante8812]

Great podcast guys!

[@tjthejetus2843]

Like the Nashville shirt CJ

[@alax1313]

1:27:58 If you came wondering about the mystery player CJ hinted at during his last appearance on the podcast ... disappointing. But hopeful? Jammed right in at the end, so here's to saving you some time.

[@jackvaughan7540]

Thank You C J !!!!!!!!! Divorce ??????? Classic!!!!!!

[@AW-sh1ce]

Kevyn Adams is literally Buster Scruggs when he walks into the saloon and gets forced into a poker hand.

[@danmacq94]

As usual and it goes without saying I loved this cj episode

[@bardownaint]

Surely there is a team in the league that would take Domi on that contract, even if they just got a 4th round pick in return.

[@jonjohnson1978.]

Nice....looking forward to this gentleman

[@reckitrish4079]

You guys been putting up a lot of content 👍

[@jeremeegartner9900]

Divorce ????

[@josephjohns4251]

Offer sheets have the draft picks set up so that they can't really work ... because if you want to offer so much the other team won't match it pretty much has to get to 10-11m plus ... and then you're in the 4 firsts range ... so then you are giving up massive cap space *and* four firsts ... it's not a good deal. By comparison, when you sign a UFA you give up massive cap space but no other assets (yes RFAs are (much) more valuable because they're younger but not 4 firsts valuable).

[@JoshAstronomer]

Didn't Carolina wait until the last minute to accept the offer sheet so as to not allow MTL to sign any (good) free agents?

[@1828penton]

Jesse called it !

[@kevinhesspschamp8889]

31:40 yes do a trade . offer tree of that one

[@rogerhorky3178]

hey! you did a good job!

[@Alexellion]

Caught on Adam got a divorce a couple months ago and noticed there were no pictures of Patrice on his Instagram and figured that was the reason. Glad it was brought up so I know now lol

[@iankniel]

31:08 Here's hoping Steve follows through on this _trade-tree_ for Thomas Vanek-even if it's not as splashy as it sounds. My Oilers fans think a lot about: what-if crucial moments/decisions had broken in their favour instead, how differently could their recent history look? It could be healthy to remind ourselves on the other hand *how much w~o~r~s~e* it could look, and the alternate-reality Buffalo Oilers should provide that opportunity.

[@montanak833]

RoR is the best example for going after second tier talent with an offersheet

[@LazyDaim]

1:00:40 Jesse just went and called the Ritchie and Kase signings :O

[@TimeToGetAlone]

I watched this after the signings and was confused for a moment lol!

[@420Dogmatic]

I've never seen Steve red-faced.

[@lahiru24]

After listening to CJ point on defenseman, I guess Dubas was right to protect Holl and sign Dermott. Dermott at 1.5 or Ceci at 3.25. I know who I would take. More and more I am coming around to Dubas thinking. I think it's unfair to solely blame him for last year's failure.

[@stephenphillips6245]

Dubas is decent but I wish the Leafs were stuck with better players on their defense...ie got to protect a more valuable dmen from Seattle.

[@AscendedXSaiyan]

@@efng21 If he was a good GM he wouldn't cave into the big 4 so easily.

[@philllllllll]

@@AscendedXSaiyan he didn't cave. Those deals were signed with the knowledge the cap would go UP. Then COVID happened and all the deals you see getting signed now aren't fair comparables because THOSE deals are signed with the knowledge the cap is staying flat for a couple years. You can believe a lot of those deals would be much higher if the cap has gone up as expected. This is a shitty situation but nobody's fault.

[@mp40submachinegun81]

@@AscendedXSaiyan if the cap was going up they wouldnt be terrible deals.

[@stephenphillips6245]

@@mp40submachinegun81 Cap probably won't go up for years yet, but still GMs are giving 9million for top-ish dman in the league. Some GMs never learn I guess.

There is little demand for his services around the league. No one has stepped up and said Eichel is their guy. Buffalo lost the McDavid sweeps, this is what it looks like.
