 Oh baby, we are back. Oh, what's going on LeafRation, it's Leaf for back again and welcome back to the channel. It's been just over a month since I've uploaded, or probably more than a month, close to two months since I've uploaded a video. And we're back, first things first, Merry Christmas to all of you, hope you got everything you guys wanted. And if you guys are watching this on New Year's Eve, you know, happy early New Year and if you're watching it after, happy New Year to you all guys, all right? So we're back, wheel of hut, let's just get straight to it boys. Oh man, it's been a while, we got some crazy packs out. We're able to claim an 87 celebrity pack. We got, you know, our Christmas rewards, but the only way we're gonna be able to open up those two packs is by getting packs on this board or on this wheel. So let's spend it for the first time in a long while and hope for some packs. We're probably way behind on hut, like our team's gotta be way behind on hut because we haven't played in a while and we land on by any special card, which could be good. We got 5.9K in the bank, I believe. Let's see what we can get with that. All right, so special card for 5.9K, I'm sure we can get something. I don't know what we're gonna wanna get though, you know what I mean? So let's see what we can get out here. Any special cards, we got these World Junior cards that could get upgraded. I don't know if we really wanna go with something like that. We got a Nick Paul, we got a cool looking Matthew Shane, which honestly might be one of the moves. He's gonna be fast, he's got playmaking forward. So add him to our watch list. He wouldn't be a bad show. I mean, we're on page 11 and honestly, I haven't seen any other special card that I would really want on my team other than that Matthew Shane. We got the winner classic cards, which could work out. They get upgraded, I believe, if either team wins, obviously. William Carlson, what's this one saying here? Two way forward, decent speed, decent shot. Okay, Carlson could be a show. So right now it's between Carlson and do Shane. Adam Larson looks pretty good, but our defense is kind of okay for now, believe it or not. And all honestly, I think do Shane is probably the better shout just cause like you just, you don't know if Vegas is gonna win. You know what I mean? They should, but you just don't know. Like how much is it Jared McCann? McCann's like 10K, dude. If we had about 5,000 coins extra, I'd 100% say Jared McCann would be a good shout. Just not in our coin total. Same with Maddie Beniers. I don't think he's gonna be in our coin total as well. A case is cheapest. So I think, and all honestly, I think do Shane's gonna be our guy. Okay, so the cheapest one on the market is for 4.275. We are going to buy him and throw him onto the team. Welcome, Matthew Shane. So now we have kind of a dilemma. I'm not throwing him on center. I'm gonna throw him on the wing. Now he's either getting rid of Bertuzzi or Stutzla. And honestly, I've been loving Bertuzzi. So I think we're gonna throw Matthew Shane in for Tim Stutzla. And yeah, I think do Shane's even gonna stay on the fourth line. Listen, the wheel told us to buy a special card. He was one of the better special cards we could buy. He's gonna be a fourth liner for the time being. It is what it is. With that being said, it's time to head into our first game with this team for the very, or for the first time in a very long while. I'm gonna be honest. I can't even remember what division we're in. I wanna say we're in division three. Hopefully there aren't two cracked teams in div three, but there's a strong possibility that there will be some cracked teams in div three. We'll see what happens. Okay, what are we coming up against? 92 Hughes, 91 Hughes, 80 MSCA. Oh, brother. Okay, well, let's see what this wheel of hut team can do against a team like this. It's expected. We haven't played in a month. Like we're behind. All right, this guy's 255, 201, and 28. We're seven, three, and one. Okay, interesting. This guy's played a lot of hockey ultimate team. Not me though, that's for sure. Not me, oh boy, MSCA is a truck. All right, good save, Kemper. Not a good start there from Kemps. That almost squeaked through. Off the boards, Mitch Olmarner flies through. We're gonna take it to the net, Mitch. Rebound for Larkin. Oh my, all right, good first rush from our team who hasn't played in a hot minute. Outta Boy Crosby just stood his ground there. We're dead, we're fine. I was joking. Mort Sider, good keep. Take it to the net. Sider, what a poke, man. Oh, that's a trip. I got LTDON in NHL 24. Didn't think you could still do that, but here we are. Now we're gonna have to kill off a penalty if we can touch the puck. Was not expecting that LTDON. I didn't think people still do that. I haven't played this game in a month, to be fair. So this is my first time playing in a while. I'm not sure what the meta is anymore. It's a good poke, he still has it though. That almost got through. Good stuff on fast for being there. That almost went in. I see ya, oh my God. Oh, what a pickup from Hughes. That's 91 Hughes, so you gotta expect that. Kill McCarr, nice try there from him. He took a penalty now, all right. Take it to the net, out in front. Nah, it was a dumb force, but it's okay. We have a power play of our own now. Down to Larkin. All right, we gotta stop feeding the puck to Larkin because he's just getting crunched over there. Oh my God, Larkin. Hit the gym, brother. Low shot, could save. Where's my team? They're not skating up for some reason. Showfield, put it on the speed. Showfield, oh, nice try. Showfield's gotta stay. There's no way we tripped through there. There's actually just no way. Okay, so now we're killing a penalty again. I don't know, I don't know. I don't know what's happening here, I really don't. Go on Kappersov, low shot. No one really going to the net, horrible low shot. Kappersov, take it to the net, bang. Wow, okay. Oh my God, nature's as fast. Oh my God, thank God he missed that. All right, well, that's the end of the first. Not much really happened. It was kind of a boring period. We had a couple chances where we couldn't get shots off, but other than that, pretty boring period, man. I mean, like I said, it's an even game. Not much really happened. A lot of killing penalties. Got my power play of our own. Didn't really do much on it. It was a boring period, man, honestly. Nice good stuff, here we go, nurse. That's a penalty, you cannot do that. We're off to the power play. This has been a special team's game. Dude, my players get bumped off the puck so easily. My God, all right. That's a good block, good save. Gonna need someone to dig that puck out for me. No one did it, so that's great. Dylan Larkin's kind of pissing me off. Not gonna lie, need a hit from side or there. Need Larkin to just pick up a puck, in all honesty. A puck pickup from Larkin would be great there, okay? Great power play here, boys. Horrible O'Shar rebound. That's a penalty. Again, I don't want power plays. We just can't do anything on them. We really can't do anything on power plays and we just keep getting them. I don't know, he's pausing for some reason. Maybe he's taking the time out. I'm not sure. I don't want power plays. I've been horrible on them. I really just don't want them anymore. Let's do something here. Try to get something going. Nice little move there, get that across. No, Bertuzzi shoot it. Nice try, connect me with the chop. Okay, sauce out across. Oh my God, that almost got through. Go Stoner. There we go, nice. Take it to the net. Stoner's try. Okay. There we go. Duchain, bang. Oh my God, what a drive from Duchain. We just can't beat Broder right now. We saw that one come in, not good. We're on a change, but it's fine. Let Sackic take the wing. That's a great pass across. I'm not sure what our left defender was doing there. He wasn't defending though, I know that for sure. One-nothing hockey game towards the end of the period too. That one hurts. 90 McDavid, this guy's got an insane team. Okay, we gotta get 5.5 seconds to go in the period. Oh, that is tough. I mean, look at here, we're in this game. We are, I just can't get anything going offensively right now and that's gotta change this period if we want a chance at winning this hockey game. This first line that's been stellar throughout this series so far, they're gonna need to step up here and I have faith and then they're gonna do it here. Let's tie it up, we couldn't even tie it up. All right, no worries, no worries. Stay with him, nurse. Oh, and that just goes straight in on Darcy Kemper and it's a two-to-nothing hockey game. It was just a snipe. Again, low rate of gold tender. This team's gonna struggle a bit again. That's on me for not playing. Two-nothing game, not great. We gotta hope that the wheel lands on some pack so we can at least get our Christmas pack and our Chell Eberde free card as well. Those overalls are gonna help this team out a lot. Try to get that across. Caprizov gets us back within one. Who assisted that? I'm not too sure but we take that. Crosby with the assist, nice. We're back in this, we got a goal. Let's get cooking now, let's get cooking. We're not getting that yet. How did I know? Full pressure and it's not great. We just can't win a face off with the centers we have and then trying to knock off these guys off the puck is just not working. Three-to-one, back down by two, ah, not great. Not great boys, not a great showing from us. And that's game, we lose four-to-one. It wasn't a great showing but like I said, when you have a team like this, there's really not much you can do. And then looking at the stats here, man, like, yeah, we were in it. We were in it, overall difference. I don't think it was a skill issue. I think I played pretty decent. It is what it is and we move on. With that being said, it's right back to this board and we're hoping for some packs. Please no buying any special card, please no bankrupt, just give me some packs here, right? So here we go. Rolling or spinning for the second time this episode. And we get open 10 packs, exactly what we wanted, exactly what we needed. Chef's kiss. The good thing is, is we got some unopened packs to open which will help us, like I said, our Christmas packs, our Celebrity packs, all that stuff. First things first, we got some coins to collect here for completing some milestones. We get a premium pack as well. I don't think I'm gonna open that and count that as a pack. I just think that's dumb. So I'm not touching that pack. Premium packs are garbage. We don't need that at this point. We need every special pack we can get, essentially, okay? So we're gonna start off with the Celebrity's choice pack. That is gonna be one of our 10s. We got nine more to go after this. We already know what's in these. I'm going with Nashor, my boy Nashor, all right? 87 overall, gonna help us on the left wing. Honestly, we love to see it. We take Nashor. Welcome to the team. Second pack that we get to open that does not cost us anything, but this is pack number two, is our Winter Holiday pack. Now, I don't know who I'm taking out of this pack. In all honesty, I'm trying to think what we really need. Jones is what I took on my main account. Is the vintage out would be pretty cool. He looks pretty good with shooting boosts here and speed boost, 92 speed, good shot. Zabinajad's a shout. I think Zabinajad might be the play. Jordan Everlay looks kind of cool. I still think Zabinajad looks better. Marion Hossa wouldn't be too bad, but we do need a centerman that has good face offs. And what does he have? 85 face offs, me, because Zabinajad welcome to the team. I feel like we took his card last year in the Monopoly series, but Zabinajad and Nashor, two huge cards to add to this team. Other than that, I don't think there are any other free packs that we get to take. So with that being said, we got eight more packs to open. I have some unopened packs that I want to run through as well, so that'll help us out as well. And there's some decent unopened packs here, at least two of them that are good. 82 overall choice, we'll leave that. So we got a jumbo premium and a jumbo NHL player. So we'll start with the premium pack. The jumbo premium pack, it's not going to be good to be honest, but let's see. So this is pack number three, I believe. I got to write this down because there's a lot of packs to open and honestly, I cannot remember how many we've opened and I'll definitely forget, okay? So this is pack number three, hoping for something decent to help out the team here. It probably won't. And what I'm going to do here with this pack, I'm going to skip the rest. Whatever are not gold players, we're just going to quick sell essentially, try to get some coin back. If we, you know, this might screw us over for the time that, you know, if we hit bankrupt and that's 1,100 coins down the drain, but it is what it is. I'm fine with it. So that's pack number three. We're moving on to pack number four, which will be a jumbo NHL players pack, which is going to be 1080 overall pluses. So this is a good pack. We're hoping for something good. Come on, baby. Show me the money on tip. It's not going to help us. Scandella won't help us. Okay, nothing to help out the team so far. Not great. Alex Tuck, don't think we'll make the team. Honestly, we need anything over an 83 or above to help out our team at this point, I believe. And so far, not great. Could have gave me a Baneers' winner classic card. Not great. Card of Rhaegi, Marcus Foligno. You know, we haven't opened up packs on this account in over a month. You think they would give us a good pull to reel us back in, but nothing there. Linus Omark, that's going to help us out. Not that Kemper's been bad, but an 84 overall Omark will definitely help us out. We'll take that. To the store, we have a bunch of packs. I think I'm going to, I want to open up one of these Flash Friday offers. 15 players with a guaranteed of an 85 plus. We do need that 85 plus. So we're going with it, all right? We could have saved it to last, but we're going to do it now. Give me something good here for our 85 plus. I want to see that purple, man. That'd be great, all right? So far, no 85 plus yet. Jon Klingberg, Leaf legend. Now on RoboDot Island. That's a good card. If Finland does something good, he can get an upgrade, all right? So we'll take him. He can go on to the team as well. Winter Classic, William Carlson. We were looking at buying him. We now get him. If his team wins, he goes up to an 84. Not too bad. 88 overall. Team of the week, Andre Vasilevsky, and that is our goal tenor for going to be probably a lot of the series, all right? We'll take a Vasilevsky that has our best pull. It's a purple. It's an 88 overall. He's going to help out our team. This pack has been pretty good to us, all right? Another Finn, okay? Another World Junior card. And that is going to be it, but A, Vasilevsky, Carlson, and Helinus. Hopefully I said that right. They're going to be welcomed onto this team. Let's do the two for one elite players pack. 1680 plus overall players. This is pack number six. We got four more to go after this one. We're hoping for some more pulls, some more good pulls to help out this team, all right? Plain and simple. That's what we need so far. We're not getting it. Cam York, the Brinkat. Don't think he'll make the team right now. Martin Marintian, okay? Leaf legend, Dawson Mercer, Hartman, Barbyshev. Quinn Hughes, that is actually going to help us. So we'll take an 84, Quinn Hughes. Welcome to the team. Is there anything else in this pack that can make their way onto our team? We pull William Carlson again, but just his base. Okay, Barnes and Yanni Gorder. So Quinn Hughes will be the one in this pack to help us out. Pack number seven. You know what? We're going to have to reload on points. Anyways, we're going to go with another Flash Friday offer. Screw it, dude, all right? Give me something good here, EA. I need it. I need it bad. Cole Schneider, okay? Grunstrom, JVR, Yvonen, Brayden Shen. Give me another purple man. Purple or an icon would be amazing here, right? Okay? Joel, okay? 86, okay. If Canada does something, he could get upgraded. And again, it's an 86 overall. We take that Jordan, Dumas, playmaking forward, and accelerator boost. This card actually looks pretty good without any boosts on it as well. So that's pretty good. We will definitely take that. Kelly Rudy and a Jonathan Marshall. But hey, we take that. We still got three more packs to go too. I got to load up the points, but we're getting some cards to help us out, which is huge. We've got to load it on points. I'm going to, dude, one more of these. One or two more of these, and we're calling it for these packs, but they've been pretty good to us so far. So we're going to keep going with it. There's a pack, a number eight out of 10, two more after this one. All right, boys, let's see what we can get here. Brandon Montur, not going to help us out. That's okay. We're looking for that 85 plus, obviously. Retrano, White Cloud, Luster Reynon, Grubauer, Brandon Gallagher, Jason Robertson. You know what? I was a little mad that it's an 85, but Jason Robertson is actually a good card. He's going to help out the team as well. Timothy Lillagrin and Tavut Terevine, and I will take that. That's not a bad pack. Welcome to the team, Jason Robertson. I want to do one more of these, and then we'll think about what the last pack is going to be. It's hard to choose. There's too many special packs out in the store right now. Mitch Marner, 84 overall. Okay, we already have them. Not bad for when we get to do some sets. We still get an 85 plus, mind you. Samuel Gerard, okay. Anything else that would help us? Dubois is not going to help us. Okay. Severson. Waiting for the 85 plus. I just don't want it to be a gold, purple, 86 overall, Clayton Keller. That's actually a sick card. Playmaking forward as well. Ajow Dangle Booster, but he's going to get that playmaking forward. This card looks insane. We will take an 86 overall, Clayton Keller, Dan Vlodar, and that is it, but amen. We much needed upgrades to this team to say the least much needed upgrades. One more Flash Friday offer, and that is going to be the last pack out of the 10. Screw it. You know what? I've enjoyed these packs. We're going to continue going with them. All right, Pavel Zaka, Nugent Hopkins, okay. So far, okay, Michael Bunting. Give me another purple. And it's another, it's another World Junior card, and this kid looks good as well. These seem like they're just so easy to pull. He's got playmaking forward as well. 84 face ups. That's going to help us down the middle. That's a huge pull. Vandercain, drives, okay. Igor Shisterkin, we have Vassilevski, but we have goalie options, which is good, and that is it. But my God, these packs were nice to us. It's time to throw them all onto the team and see how this new team looks. First things first is the easy swap. Andre Vassilevski, 88 overall is going to be coming in for Darcy Kemper. That was our best pull out of the packs. So Konekni is going to be coming out for Dumace. You know, we just need the better overalls. I'm sorry, Konekni. It just is what it is. As good as Bertuzzi's been, he's getting exchanged out for Nashor. Again, just the overalls. It's what we need. Center-wise, it looks like Anze Copetar will be coming out of the lineup for Mika Zabinajad. And then we're going to get rid of Mark Stone and throw in another World Junior card. At an 84 overall, it's a plus one upgrade. Why not? We'll take it. So we'll throw him in there as well. And then Quinn Hughes is going to be coming in for Darnell Nurse. It just makes sense. We might lose two way defenseman. I don't think Hughes has that. He doesn't. It is what it is. He's just a better overall. And he's going to be playing Wakail Makar. All right. So this is what the new and improved team looks like. It's a completely revamped first line. Dumace, Zabinajad and Andrew Telfer, Nashor. Second line is going to be Keller, Sapa-Valev, Marner, Linholm, Malkin, Robertson, Schofield, Crosby and Hellunus. Defensively, the only change was Hughes. So it's going to be Hughes Makar, Sider's still with Sanderson and Fass is still with Harvey. And then in net, we got Andre Vasilevsky. This team's looking great. And I can't wait to try out all these new cards. All right. Second game, Panarin, Zabinajad, Nylander. That's more my type of team I want to play against here. Here we go. I'm excited to try out these new card boys. I'm not going to lie. This should be interesting. Don't know how he still has it. That gets across. And Vasilevsky's first shot on goal is one that's going in against him. All right. I don't know. I couldn't pick up the puck at all there. I don't know. He had like a force field against him. We're down 1-0 early. Somehow this is a worse start than last game. Zabinajad against Keller, easy poke. This is what I mean. It's just the puck's going straight to him and it's going in. What is happening Vasilevsky? This is not the game we wanted. This is not the game we wanted, boys. My team's not picking up pucks here. What is happening? Oh my God. That is horrible. Not great. This is not great, boys. I can't get anything going. My team is just not teaming. They're not teaming. They're not teaming well. It's that simple. They're just not teaming well. Like that. That's exactly what we need to do. That's exactly what we need to do. 3-0. This is just absolutely garbage. It's a garbage performance for me. Good hit. It's a good pass. Nice move. Low-sharp rebound. Oh, it was there. It was there for us. It really was. Low-sharp rebound. Nasher couldn't get it in. What a save from Broder. We have a power play. We're starting to actually play some decent hockey now. Oh, brother. I'm a little depressed. Here, McCarr. There we go. Out of front. Oh my God. Dumace, he couldn't get that in. Oh, brother. All right. We're playing some better hockey here, which I'm very thankful for. Because what a horrible start. Take it to the net. Zabinajad and Zabinajad in his first game is going to score the goal. All right. Love to see it. 3-1. We needed that before the period ended. We got it. Oh, good stuff from Zabinajad. Assistant from Hughes and you guys chipping in right away. Good. And I mean, end of one. Like, just a horrible start for me. That's all I'm going to say. I'm not even going to try to explain or try to like give myself an out. That was a horrible period by me. You're good, McCarr. Good. Good. Bang. That's a good trip too, man. We were most likely going to score there, I think. It's a good trip by him, man. Now we try to get set up. All right, here we are. We've got the setup going. I see the pass across. Why? Why? Why not just one time it? Oh my God. Still horrible animations, I see. Good stuff there. Don't know, sure. Hughes. Oh, nice try. If he picked the corner, it might have went in, but he kind of just shot it into his glove way offside. That's a sick move. Like actually, he negated that poke check. I would have had him, oh, what a block from Renate the fast. And I mean, looking at the stats, he's been dominating. I'm not going to lie, but I felt better that period. We just got to create more chances for ourselves, because we're just not doing it. Rebound, instead of going towards the puck, he just went away from it. He just didn't. He just didn't go to the puck. This is so unfortunate, because Crosby's so tired. Bang. Oh my God, what a save. Sider, I see you. No way. Come on, Sider. And we just lost that puck on nothing, and we go 0-2 in our first episode back. And we only scored two goals, so I still have problems scoring in this game. It's great to see that I still have issues scoring in this game. It's a little tough. Looking at the stats, I mean, he just played better than us. It's that simple. It's tough to see. Two goals in two games is not going to win you virtual hockey games. You can buy all the packs in the world you want. It just doesn't come down to how good your team is. We had pretty similar teams, pretty even teams I'd like to think. And I just couldn't get anything going. So we're going to collect our coins here. We got our daily XP collectibles as well. We get an 82 overall, David Bacchus, which honestly just won't help our team. So it's just going to be fodder for our team, and we get a captain's collectible as well, which I'm not sure we can do with it. I'm assuming go the captain's player, but we need to get that on the wheel, the sets part of the wheel to be able to do that. But anyways, guys, that's going to be Ifertae's Wheel of Hut episode.
