Get to a puck quick off the forecheck.

Get the puck off your stick cleanly.

I'm not talking off the glass.

Good offensive players need the puck clean.

Oh, you know it.

And that's where the downfall in offense comes.

If you can't get the puck clean, and you ask any offensive player, Jeff, you're a good offensive player.

You need the puck on your stick.

You need it on the right time, and they couldn't do it.

So that, to me, is where they have to go and look and find some defensemen.

Like I think about a player, and he played here in Kelowna, Tyson Berry.

Like those types of players, they might not be there for the long term, but they can come in for the short term and help you.

That's where you've got to go mine the playing field and try to find players that can do those types of things and then move forward from there.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but you've got to go and do it.

One of the things that really, good thing my hair is still pretty full, I don't worry about it, but I'm so tired of hearing managers tell me how hard it is to make a trade.

Okay.

Like Bill Guerin, I guess it was really hard for him.

I guess it was really hard for Chris McFarlane to go get two goalies.

I guess it was really hard for Kelly McCrimmon to go get Rasmus Anderson.

I just keep hearing how hard it is, how hard it is, how hard it is.
