Craig, how much confidence do you have?

I think he's a really smart guy.

His track record and positions around the globe have established that.

But how much confidence do you have that he understands the dynamics of a hockey organization when he's never been a part of one?

Yes, he's been around the game and the television side and behind the scenes, but how does he know what to do and what to pull the trigger on as far as what this organization is and what it needs?

I don't think they have that luxury, Craig, of picking and choosing, to be honest with you.

I think they just got to play.

Besides nothing.

My first question, guys, is there a precedent for an injury replacement in your league before, or is this the first time?

There is now.

This is the precedent.

Exactly.

You have to go cannot be a guy in the top ten.

You have to be generous because, I mean, better than taking Justin Thomas who's like in sixth or whatever he's at or, you know.

You know who I'll take?

You can't be taking the guy who's second.

He can't be T13 in the moment with holes left to play, so he ends up T9.

He's got to finish the round outside the top ten.

I mean, I don't know if the crowd was reacting the way that we were reacting.

I think the crowd was reacting to the Austin Matthews on the ice.
