Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer · Oilers Defenceman Brett Kulak (5/19/25) · 19 May 2025 podcast

Yeah, it's been it's been good to see both series how how much we've, you know, grown from from game one throughout and I think it's just like you like you talk about the game one and two against L A and that kinda you know, that stung a lot for us.

We we had big expectations for the playoffs and when you come in and we knew they were gonna be good and they're better than years past, but we we just got totally outplayed and outworked in those couple of games and that's just you know

that that was a big time wake up call for us and no one was no one was happy or satisfied with that and it was pretty impressive how each guy took it upon themselves to uh look themselves in the mirror and just demand more more from their game and know it's there and know it needs to be there if we want to have success and uh it things happen quick in the playoffs.

You can't you can't fall asleep too long, otherwise you'll be packing your bags and going home.

So it was pretty it's it's been impressive how everyone's stepped up.

Yeah, I don't know.

I it's uh

Yeah, there's a number of things to factor into it, but uh I just kinda take it one day at a time now and you know, the minutes have been they've been there and the the coach has trusted me a lot and give me lots of opportunity and uh y it goes hand in hand.

I he can't just put me out there if I'm not uh doing my job.

So that's what I focus on, preparing myself to be ready every game to to be at my best and

Yeah, playoffs are just kinda you know, there's a different emotion and different level of intensity to the games and and I always find myself just, you know, those those games are are better, easier to get up for and uh when when the window's short and you need to beat a team uh four four games, uh you you bring your best every night and you you leave it all in the ice for sure.

And um it's it's been fun.

I've been having a great, great experience here.

Yeah, I'm uh I from what I've seen in this group over the past few years we're always at our best when when all four lines are contributing and getting ice time and you know, you're obviously gonna put the the big guys out there when you you need goals or in crunch time situations or their special team situations, but uh outside of that I think we're we're the best version of our team when everyone's going and we're playing at even strength and and we're we're using our speed.

So um

I think that's that's probably been our biggest strength and as far as yeah, not not giving up anything the last couple of games.

I think that just goes to

I want to credit it a little bit to the rhythm we've been able to get in of of playing every second night and not having m multiple days off between games.

It's allowed us to to really uh come along and just find find what we need we need to do to to win games.

Yeah, it's uh like you say, we just beat two really good teams and and they keep coming, that's for sure.
