Right.

Like Brad Trelipping, I just caught the end of his thing there with the reporters.

He's saying their grades are still in the queue.

So there would have been a time 20 years ago that that wouldn't, you know, it just wouldn't all be out there yet.

But it's hard when players are getting informed, when multiple people know in a front office, as you mentioned, agents get involved.

You know, there's just...

There's a lot of different ways we all find out about these things.

I wish I knew that guy a little better.

Well, I think they do.

I don't know how many people are doing it, but they definitely are equipped to have multiple calls at once.

But as much as, of course, those of us wanting to know, we want to know everything yesterday.

Right.

once these trades are official, they're official, right?

So even something as simple as, you know, the Calgary trade with, with Cadre and Colorado, they have to make sure that Calgary actually owns this pick and Colorado owns that pick and that it's not part of another deal that someone forgot about.

And so the point is, is that I think it is a more thorough process than we might realize, even for what might sound like kind of simple trades and they got to get it right.

So it's fair, you know,

Again, we want everything right in the moment, but they only get one chance not to screw it up.

I do think that the new CBA rules played effect.

You know, just not having the playoff salary cap, it's a new thing.

And I guarantee you, we get to mid-April and it's the first games of the playoffs, some weird stuff's going to go on.
