Biz Nasty (Paul Bissonnette)

Leo Carlson, this guy's going to be a perennial Selkie candidate like we saw with Kopitar and Bergeron the last few years.

So, awesome game.

And Gene pointed out to me last night, shout out to the Czechs and the way they've been producing goalies lately.

Yeah.

Three out of the current eight starters are Czech goalies, Dostal, Dobish, and Vlada.

That's the equivalent of, like, North Carolina producing three starting goalies in the NHL's final eight teams right now, population-wise, which, you know, when you put it in those terms, absolutely kind of bananas.

So it's impressive as hell, and you have to think how much Dominic Kasich has factored into that, growing up watching him, you know, with the stories.

You got to, you know, guys want to grow up and be him, so...

There was another check starter for a team that was bounced.

Yeah, I only did this round.

I'm drawing a blank on it as well.

But either way, good stuff.

And, you know, we interviewed Leo at the draft of Nashville actually before he got drafted.

And, man, I think we all, like, started rooting for that guy that day.

And, you know, he has a stutter.

I think he's, you know, I don't even know if he has anymore.

But we weren't aware of that.

And the way he just didn't let it affect him and power through it.

And I think I mentioned it before.

Brian Rust on the Penguins used to have one.
