And to what you spoke of earlier, I can guarantee you they were pretty tired all year long after the long runs that they've been on.

But having said that,

He will put those players in a position to be successful, but they will be pressing up and forcing all over the ice, offensively, defensively.

It is a time and space pressure game in order to create turnovers and utilize their ability to transition and get the puck into their best players' hands at all times.

Yeah, I think so.

You know, I think when you look at... When I look at the best teams in the National Hockey League right now that...

that have excellent penalty killing they pressure incredibly well it seems like it's very hard for the opposition that even gets set up not only to get the puck in the offensive zone but then to get set up without constantly being pressured they have to make four or five six really good passes to create any time and space to kind of calm things down and settle down the power play

And that's really, you know, Carolina's MO is that pressure, pressure, pressure.

Good sticks, you know, Lavi is relentless on good sticks, moving your feet.

I mean, he's pushing nonstop on these key points.

And, you know, I think for a team like the Oilers that can skate and has the players that can utilize those types of talents, you know, I was thinking about today, to be honest with you, I think he would be a great fit there.

Speaker 4 , huge loss.

You know, he's, he's a driving force back in that blue line power play, obviously secondary and sometimes primary scoring.

He is a 30 minutes,

a game kind of player that has a bite to his game, plays with an edge.

He's kind of their Mr. Fix-It.

He's their do-it-all guy.

And when you don't have a player like that in the lineup, it takes multiple players, and you're still not going to get that same hockey sense and that ability to have a game-changer in the lineup.

So he's a huge loss for them.

that you know it's they're trying to add two or three guys to the lineup that can do what he does and it's just not feasible at this time of year so you can't replicate or you can't find somebody to do what he does and it's a matter of them ultimately trying to simplify their game which you know they're a run and gun team they're a high octane you know speed transition game type of team and he also turns over a lot of puck so it's
