I mean, culturally, it was just different.

Like, I remember in juniors, I had a tough stretch.

And I kind of told the coach I didn't want to start one night.

And he was a former goalie.

And he was just kind of like, what the hell are you doing?

You never, ever do that.

Like, what are you doing?

I was like, okay, well... He's like, yeah, okay, you're not in tonight.

And if he plays well, you're not in the next one, too.

I'm like, oh, yeah, that's a good point.

Yeah, I put that mentality in my mind, like, okay, you got to figure this out, and you got to be ready to roll, and you got to stay in the net.

And I think...

It's helpful.

Culturally, I think it's changed a little bit in the NHL.

Guys are really aware of how they need to be feeling to be at their peak.

But I do think there is a lot to be said about guys who can really roll with it.

Because come playoff time, you want to have a guy who's feeling it.

I mean, that's...

that's been such a big difference in the playoffs.

So, so often it's like when the guy is really feeling it's two months of hockey, you're not getting a break.
