But what about like, I could understand, right?

We've got a, you're talking about a league that has a lot of owners.

So like, I, I understand this is junior hockey.

There's always going to be like financial and cost concerns and what, but even if they don't merge, like why not find a way to have like a cooperative relationship where.

For sure.

you, you, you have this like mutual respect where it's like, all right, you know what?

Like we're going to play an exhibition series and then maybe it's a Christmas tournament, right?

Something like that.

I mean, I know world juniors is going on, so maybe you do it before that.

Something like that with juniors.

Like I'm sure NHL scouts would love it.

I'm sure any NHL would love it.

Like right now the NHL is in this situation where like, we're all looking at the NHL going, you're the ones that need to come in and like slam the hammer and be like, listen,

We need to figure this out so we don't fuck it up for all these kids because it's so dirty behind the scenes on what's going on.

Right.

And none of it's actually about these kids like their kids.

Yeah, well, and that's where I'm talking about the media deal.

And like I said, I think that's why Butchie talked a little bit about what he did because you look at the media landscape in college, like they all used to have TV deals, like real TV deals, not a TV deal where it's like, hey,

You do the game, let your students produce it, let your students film it, and then you give us the code and we'll put you on our streaming platform, right?

I'm talking like a real, like Hockey East used to have a TV deal with Nesson when you, like going back to you, where there was a game every week and like they bring it out.
