Yeah, for sure, right? voice-verified

I mean, all you're looking for from Ike Howard in terms of progression is really his off-the-puck play voice-verified

Uh, and his, you know, so we talk about things like, uh, fleeing the zone when he sees maybe an opportunity, uh, to get a puck and go up the ice and maybe doing that a little bit too aggressively before, you know, his teammates had control of the puck, uh, voice-verified

You know, maybe hanging on to the puck too long and instead of giving it up to a teammate and getting into another spot. voice-verified

Those are the things that he was working on or it was clear that the coaching staff wanted him to work on. voice-verified

You know, I thought he progressed very nicely. voice-verified

He's really not bad in his own zone defensively. voice-verified

I don't even think that was all that much of an issue. voice-verified

He can get lost like any young player can, but it's not for a lack of effort, for sure. voice-verified

and you know so it's uh you know i thought as the year went on um what he what i would say suggest happened was he got a little bit more composed and really understood that he didn't he had enough ability enough skill you know skating ability shot whatever whatever it was in whatever circumstance that he didn't need to take that extra five percent of risk voice-verified

And that that's the big piece, right? voice-verified

If he learns that his, if he gets confident that his abilities to succeed as they are now will carry him, then he's going to be more composed about playing off of the puck defensively. voice-verified

And that's what you want, right? voice-verified

That's what the coach is going to look for. voice-verified

Yeah, so I think when we talked about it, what I said is where I stand today. voice-verified

Do you make a bad decision in a circumstance, perhaps? voice-verified

But if, you know, I, you know, just because of my background, I ended up, you know, following the trial quite close. voice-verified

You know, I'm not going to defend his actions, you know, from a civil standpoint. voice-verified

But I have strong questions about whether he should have ever been charged. voice-verified

It's clear Hockey Canada had some issues with that, given that he was the only one reinstated. voice-verified
