Good, Brent.

How are you?

Yeah, it was a tough pill to swallow for us here in Edmonton, especially the way it ended.

I don't necessarily agree with the call, but it is what it is.

I think at the end of the day right now, the Oilers are not the better team.

They've got to fix that if they're going to have any hope of winning in seven now.

Well, I don't know.

I mean, I've never experienced anything like that with just one team having a hard time at a period, but it seems to me that

You know, if A's not working, you've got to try B. B's not working, you've got to try C. I'm not sure.

I mean, obviously, there's something going on with either fatigue or messaging or the long change.

But they have struggled in the second.

Or maybe Anaheim's just been a really strong second period team.

But they should have been able to hold the lead last night.

They didn't hold the lead in game one.

And then down the stretch in their regular season, they were actually quite good at it.

They were one of the best defensive teams in the last month.

So something is up.

I can't put a finger on it myself, obviously.

Nobody can.

It's a wider doubt.
