Okay, but this is your job.

How are you taking it seriously to extract the most out of yourself?

I think that's the duty of a coach.

As I've mentioned a lot of times, it's the primary touchpoint for players in the organization.

Yeah, there's GMs and presidents and all these things, but the person they're interacting with the most, you know, the trainers, of course, but like coaches.

If you want to use the Flyers as an example, it's a good shout there, but, like, they would have come into the year and say, okay...

A lot of ifs.

If Zegers is a hit, okay, well, that one was checked off.

If Couturier is healthy, well, that one gets checked off.

If Sanheim continues his growth as the number one D, okay, well, that one checks off.

If Drysdale or York and these guys take steps, okay, well, that one checks.

If we get solid goaltending, like a lot of ifs went right for Philly and it came out to 98-point season.

If Tockett's system can apply to here in the floor, like a lot of ifs, they hit a lot of ifs.

That, like, reality does exist for Vancouver.

I don't know if it's what's most beneficial for them long-term, of course.

Yeah, I mean... You can hit a lot of ifs, as we've discussed.

Demko stays healthy.

Pedersen, you draft a top-three guy.

Stenberg falls to them.

Like, everything has to go right.
