It's tough for us to understand that.

They're Americans.

They're not Canadians.

They're not going to see the world through the lens of a Canadian living in Ottawa or Toronto, Winnipeg, Vancouver.

They're Americans, and that's just the reality, and that didn't change whether they won or lost a gold medal.

Yeah, eight years I think it was.

Yeah, that's the thing.

He's the marquee guy.

And I do wonder, and Johnny, you can answer this, if actually the experience Calgary went through,

with Matthew and how eventually that turned into an absolute disaster of a trade because of one player, and we all know who it is, Huberto.

If Ottawa said, we just want picks so we can determine... Yeah, you can't label that player X for Y. Exactly.

Do you think there's a chance they looked at that and said, maybe Florida put a couple players up.

I don't know.

Maybe they said, you can have Verhage and someone else if you want them.

And they said, I don't know if we want to go down the Huberto Road.

You think that's possible?

They learned from that experience?

either case but if you are hayes i think there's a comparison there and the energy doesn't seem the same yeah well there's a couple things one first and foremost fans are fans of the team first not the players that's fair every fan wants their their team to do well right like reminder about loyalty then

But that's my point.

Of course, my point is it's going to be imbalanced.
