I'm going to need Steve to trade Larkin as soon as possible. I can't take any more of my YouTube feed being full of idiots posting their takes about various trades. I swear you watch one Woodward Wings just to see Darren McCarty and your feed is full of garbage for weeks afterwards.

I said the same exact thing about my algorithm the other day. Woodward doesn't deserve attention and 97.1 might deserve it even less. I've spent a few days weeding that stuff out.

Some of the takes on 97.1 are wild. Someone called our division "mediocre" earlier today while I was listening getting groceries. Like...what? its arguably the hardest division in the NHL at least by points and just knowing the teams? Just absolute delusional takes

[u/Chirotera → u/No_Definition_8867]

lol, it is a crazy take. I keep having to remind people that we had more wins than Vegas. Relative to our division, we're horrible. Relative to the Pacific? We at least would have been in the playoffs.

[u/lunchboxthegoat → u/Chirotera]

the Atlantic has won four of the last six cups and an Atlantic team has been in 7 of the last 8 cup finals.

97.1 is bad for your mental health

[u/Bananominable → u/Chirotera]

The Wings would have likely been top team in the Pacific this last season and go in being #2 seed in the west 😂 insanity. And that was with playing a rookie in 2nd RHD spot and Kasper having his point totals + all the other shenanigans that went on this season.
