The New York Rangers are playing unsustainable hockey and got lucky against Pittsburgh

Rangers fans were losing it because I was like, yes, this team has had success all year, but fuck, do they give up a lot of high, dangerous scoring chances and rely on their goaltending. I think that they're going to get worked in playoffs... believe me when I say they got so lucky that Jarry got hurt and they had to play a three third string goalie, they got [worked].

The Rangers' luck did run out in the Conference Finals as they lost to Tampa Bay in 6 games shortly after this episode.

The Boston Celtics are dead

The Boston Celtics are dead.

The Celtics were far from dead; they won Game 3 and took a 2-1 lead before eventually losing the series 4-2.

The Celtics are the better team and will win the series if they execute

If [the Celtics] just have to execute and play their game, they're going to win the series. But I'm just worried... it feels like they are the better team similar to honestly the Heat series where it's like, they're the better team. So it almost makes it worse when games are close and they lose games.

The Celtics lost the series 4-2 to the Warriors, who proved to be the better, more experienced team.

Game 3 is a must-win for the Celtics

I feel like the Celtics have to win this game [Game 3]. If they lose this game, I think they're done.

The Celtics did win Game 3 but lost the series. His prediction that they would be 'done' if they lost was never tested because they won.

The Toronto Maple Leafs hiring John Chayka as GM is laughable given his track record

to get the the the one of the biggest, if not the biggest jobs in hockey as far as the general manager with the track record he has is laughable. Listen, maybe he ends up going on to have success. But to get... the biggest jobs in hockey... with the track record he has is laughable.

The hire was highly controversial in the hockey community, but its ultimate success will be judged by the Leafs' playoff performance.

John Chayka is a 'snake oil salesman' who lost his credibility in the NHL

I've talked to 20 people around the league and 19 of 'em have told me that this guy has no credibility. He's a snake, snake oil salesman. He's full of and just basically like like question completely question the guy's character.

Chayka's reputation in the league is a matter of widely reported controversy, making Biz's characterization consistent with many reports.

Gavin McKenna will be a phenom in the NHL

Gavin McKenna... who a kid I wanna follow. He's gonna be, I think he's gonna be a phenom. I'm gonna follow wherever he goes. Well now I don't get to follow him... because I'm sure the Leafs are gonna draft him.

McKenna is widely considered the top prospect for his draft class and a future NHL star.
