Shawn Simpson Interview: Life After TSN, Hot Takes + The Shane Pinto Situation



We have a very special guest on todays episode! It’s Shawn Simpson!

Brandon Piller and Ross Levitan pick Simmer’s brain on a number of topics including his stance on Vladimir Tarasenko, Sens new management team additions and how the Shane Pinto contract negotiations are going. Josh Norris looks like he is finally getting ready to play lining up with Dominik Kubalik and Drake Batherson and even getting looks on the top PP unit. And we have a debate on where we think the leverage is leaning between Pinto and the Sens.

  1. Simpson is a clown that bashes the Sens endlessly and trolls the fans. Glad he is off the air in Ottawa. Love your show boys but Ill be skipping this episode. See you tomorrow GSG!!

  2. Could Pierre Dorion be waiting until Norris plays a few games to decide if he wants to trade someone to make room for Pinto? Cause if (god forbid) Norris goes back on the LTIR they don't need to make cap space.. Ridley is playing well enough that it takes some of the urgency out of it

  3. I hate shootouts personally. I mean, why not have a shot accuracy competition decide the game?! I would much rather that we have ties again and get rid of these 3-point games altogether. Absolutely nothing wrong with a tie. Can't wait to have both Norris and Pinto in the lineup when the time comes. Loving hearing Simmer again. I was so bummed when TSN 1200 cancelled the 10-2 and 2-6 shows. Hate listening to American syndicated radio. No hockey coverage at all. Great show lads, we are so lucky to have you. Go Sens Go!! Who wants it?!?! Cheers

  4. Why won't someone in Ottawa recognize the obvious that Pinto won't be signed until Norris is up and going? The team literally cannot sign Pinto without moving a player but at that point, they are down another body but still have no cap space. Pinto won't be able to enter the lineup right away so they'll be stuck icing 11 forwards until Norris is healthy or Pinto is ready. The latter could be at least a few games. You can't emergency recall in that scenario. So they need Norris to be healthy to know that they can ice 12 forwards while Pinto is getting up to speed. I bet both the contract and the trade to fit it have already been agreed to in principle

  5. I’ve been taking AG1 for the last 3 months thanks to your videos and referral link. It’s been great!

  6. PD needs to take a math course. What a shameful error. He had to know that he needed to keep 2.5m available for Pinto. He is hurting the team's progress.

  7. That's awesome hearing Simmer weigh in on the Sens topics of the day. Wish he was still on TSN 1200 but will settle for appearances on this channel. Great interview boys. Keep up the great work!!

  8. Hi Ross, I think you need to get your starter looked at. Your starter breath going into your " ………….. welcome … " is starting to slow down.

  9. By chanting, “We want Pinto!”, at the games, you’re only making it HARDER for Dorion to make a trade to free up cap space to sign him. Pierre loses leverage with every chant. Cuz all the GMs will argue, “Your fanbase is growing impatient and is chanting at games.”

    This is a very stupid thing for the fanbase to be doing imo

  10. TSN1200 is a shell of its former self without Simmer…..Versage, too. I wish this chat was longer! Trading Chabot is a perfect solution. Tarasenko was a terrible signing. GSG! Would you rather win a cup, or be surrounded by every best friend you've ever had? Come on. I don't think the market is bullish on Chabo with that contract.

  11. To me it’s clear, I would absolutely trade Chabot, I’ve been saying this for a year now, maybe Calgary for Hanafin???

  12. Did PD gamble that Toronto would buyout M Murray and expected to use that CAP money for Pinto contract? if so, he lost. Only way out now may be waiting for other team to get desperate due to LT injury and to call Sens to take on a contract.

  13. Thank you for bringing up Boucher. Something is 100% up with that.

  14. Love the takes and the overall Pinto chat. Nobody discusses hot topics like the LOSP boys!

  15. I grabbed jets home opener tickets on game time and it works as advertised, had my tickets in two minutes. Big ups to you guys for getting me on that train!

  16. Funny story (maybe not so funny): Used to see Shawn Simpson on CTV Morning Live. I always enjoyed his segments and wished they were longer actually. He just seemed like a genuine happy-go-lucky guy – my kind of person – instantly likeable. The story is that one day Shawn said something about the Sens on Twitter and I commented “Shawn are you a Sens fan? I’m curious because it’s hard for me to tell…” (or something along those lines) and he BLOCKED me! I don’t know why this was offensive – misconstrued? I guess it hit some nerve for which I am truly sorry because it certainly was not my intent. If he ever unblocks me after reading this, I promise that my lips are sealed forever! 😊

    Anyway, good show as always lads! Fingers crossed on Norris!
