I think he gives Matthews what he needs.
But back to your question, Jamie.
I think that Slavkoski had really gained up, and it was one of those, and I don't think any players like that in this year's draft, where it was kind of, oh, Shane Wright's the number one guy, Shane Wright's the number one guy, until the Montreal Cade and said, maybe for somebody else, but not for us.
Simon Nemitz went two, Cooley went three, Cutter Gauthier went five.
There's a pretty good example.
We saw that Shane Wright went fourth.
Jason Robertson just turned down $15 million a year for eight seasons there.
Maybe they should have drafted Cutter Gauthier.
You're prepared for the scenarios that you've been discussing for whether it be days, whether it be weeks, and you have your finger on the pulse right now.
The tough thing about the NHL draft is that you only have so much time to make a maneuver or to make a trade.
They've really locked it in in terms of time.
So if you want to make a trade, you've got to do it ahead of time because you can't sit down and go, okay, we're going to talk.
We watched general managers in the past go over and talk to another GM and everything that went with it.
That's not allowed anymore.
You have so much time.
Then if you want to make a trade, you've got to do it within a certain period of time.
So I think it limits kind of that last-minute chaos, Jeff, those last-minute scenarios where somebody goes, well, will you give us the fourth pick?
If you haven't really talked about it, it's hard to execute a trade at that time.
So you're on top of it.
You've got your finger on the pulse.
