You don't know

If you're going to make the right decision, you want to try to, I look at like Cutter Gauthier, you know, playing in Anaheim.

I know they felt like they made a good deal in Philly.

I just, that's one where it kind of shows my example.

I would have been more patient.

Personally, or, or that would have been my thinking.

So, you know, these are really challenging issues for general managers, Gordon, you know, this.

You know, in my opinion, you always want to have in today's world, it's just different, Nick, you and I, nobody asked you and I what we thought, especially me, especially me.

Yeah.

Now we weren't, you know, star players or even the type of guys that would generally get that cloud.

Um,

But even so, you could go pretty far up the lineup, and very few players knew what was going on.

It's not an indictment.

They're having great careers.

They just grew up differently than we did.
