Ep. 40 – Leafs Can’t Find Consistency, Utah’s a Wagon, Celebrini’s Cooking & RIP to a Jets Legend

Episode 40 is here and the boys are buzzing — well, kind of.The Leafs continue to be the definition of mid. One night they look like Cup contenders, the next they’re getting run out of the rink by New Jersey and Buffalo. Tanev’s week-to-week, Woll’s back on the ice, but Tavares is sneakily on fire and Cowan might’ve just earned himself another look.Meanwhile, Utah’s offence is absolutely cooking — seven straight wins, Schmaltz is in a contract year and tied for first in league points, and Chicago’s still rolling. The Devils? Straight-up disgusting. Hughes, Bratt, Hischier, Mercer — all producing like maniacs. And Celebrini’s officially HIM again after a slow start. The kid’s got 10 points in 4 games.Ryan’s beer league team? 1 goal in their last 3 games. Pray for them.RIP to Barstool Beef of the Foreplay podcast. Heart of gold and gone way too soon.Then it’s NFL time — RIP to Nick Mangold, an absolute Jets legend. Week 8 was a snooze fest, but the Bills smoked the Panthers 40-9, the Jets finally got a win, and somehow Taylor stays undefeated in the Wildcard Women picks (3-0). Caitlin’s officially on the board at 1-2.The boys rip through Week 9 predictions, debate MVP picks, and dive into the betting chaos: 🔥 Ryan stays red hot with another Lock of the Week win (7-1). 💀 Jackson’s still searching for answers at 2-5. 🚜 Both guys remain 0-8 in the Bet the Farm segment — true degeneracy. 🙏 The Ten Commandments came through again with the low and medium risk bets hitting (a +649 parlay).Plus — Draft or Dump makes its return as the fellas break down what they loved (or hated) from the week in sports.🍺 Hockey, football, gambling misery, and vibes only. It’s just another week of Buds Mafia chaos.Follow Buds & Pucks for weekly sports mayhem: 📸 Instagram → @budsandpucks X → @BudsandPucks TikTok → @budsandpucks#Leafs #NHL #NFL #FantasyHockey #FantasyFootball #SportsPodcast #HockeyPodcast #SportsBetting #BudsMafia #UtahHockey #Celebrini #LeafsForever #Jets
