00:00But the Bruins are right now the worst team in their division.

00:02OK, they're 4, 5, and 1.

00:06They lose last night.

00:07They're blanked by the Flyers, who are the worst team in hockey

00:10and have given up the most goals in hockey.

00:12They're shut out by that team last night.

00:15Their power play is abysmal.

00:17Montgomery's shaking up the lines today at practice.

00:20Even the fourth line.

00:21Even the fourth line.

00:22The one good line they have.

00:23Grasping his thrust.

00:23The fourth line is not on every other line.

00:25The one good line is like, that's all they had.

00:28And he's shaking things up.

00:30And meanwhile, Montgomery and Marchand are,

00:33Montgomery's shoving him the other weekend.

00:35He looks like he's tuned Montgomery out.

00:37So who knows how long Montgomery's going to be here for?

00:40But I really don't get this.

00:42And I love Marchand.

00:43You do.

00:43You are a fan.

00:44It's like my favorite, one of the few athletes I even like.

00:47He's your guy.

00:48What's the urgency in paying him?

00:50He's got one goal this year.

00:52I don't know.

00:52Do you think he's disgruntled?

00:54Is he letting it bother him?

00:56I honestly don't know the answer to that.

00:58So do you think part of the reason he's not producing

01:00is because he's pushing himself?

01:02I don't know.

01:02Or grabbing the stick, as they like to say.

01:04Yeah, that happens.

01:05I think other guys, you would bring that up with,

01:07wouldn't you think that?

01:08Yeah, fair.

01:09So look, I'm a fan of Brad Marchand.

01:12I would have no problem in the off season,

01:15at the end of the year, going, hey, Brad,

01:16do you want another year or two tacked on?

01:18Like, do the thing you did with Bergeron, or Chara,

01:20or some of these other guys late in their career.

01:23I'd have zero problem with that.

01:24Why are you rushing out to pay him now?

01:27It's not even Halloween.

01:28I'm one of the worst teams in the league.

01:29It's not even Halloween.

01:30And he's doing nothing.

01:33What's the urgency there?

01:34I don't know.

01:34This is a different type of year for a guy like Jim Montgomery.

01:38So they've played 10 games so far this year.

01:40You mentioned how bad they've been.

01:42So last night's loss to Philly.

01:43They're now 4, 5, and 1.

01:46Do you remember what their record was last year

01:48through 10 games?

01:49Oh, 8 and 2, or something like that?

01:509, 0, and 1.

01:52Yeah, OK, even better than that.

01:53They were insane.

01:54And then the year before that, they were obviously

01:56a wagon as well.

01:57Let me see.

01:58What were they through 10 games?

01:59Wait, so they were 9, 0, and 1 last year

02:01to start the year after their monster year of the year

02:03before?

02:03The year before, they were 9 and 1.

02:04And then after Christmas, they were barely a 500 team.

02:07Their first 10 games, Montgomery's first year,

02:09they were 9 and 1.

02:11The year after that, they were 9, 0, and 1.

02:13This year, they're 4, 5, and 1.

02:14Not so good.

02:15Much worse.

02:17Much worse.
