Bob Pompeani

One of the most important figures on that Stanley Cup run that they had.

He came up as an 18-year-old and won the Vezina.

At 18, right.

He is, but he also was one of the most articulate –

players you ever want to meet i mean he he but i think so much so that he overanalyzed what the questions you may have been asking you know and he and he looked at you like what are you trying to get out of me kind of a defensive you know mode right which i never really understood because he was very articulate knew everything what a 30 for 30 that would be and you and i should do it bob let's go and we can interview jay as one of our subjects ready to get tommy to talk

Well, he got into coaching, and then he went to Russia to coach, I think it was.

He did, yeah.

So I don't know.

That's a good question.

Jay may have an answer to that.

He may keep in touch.

I mean, those guys are all well-connected.

The one thing I find though, Jay, we were talking about this earlier.

I still think the Penguins have built up enough where they could survive this.

And with the goal of just getting into the playoffs and then get Crosby back, hopefully you're a hundred percent healthy and motivated.

Um,

But the reason I say that is because I like the way Dan Mews and his system have kind of worked.

They've been in just about every game.

They don't get blown out of games.

They've blown leads, certainly, but it's not because they haven't had the advantage in some of those games.
