But

You know, when you're chasing the game, that's exactly what happens.

And the other side effect of all this is the wear and tear you're going to have on your stars.

So let's give this group an opportunity to integrate and hopefully by their play, they demonstrate that they can handle the minutes and we're in a better position in terms of playing catch-up.

Oh, it works for sure.

When I was in St.

Louis, Ryan O'Reilly, man, that guy spent so much time on the little details of his game.

And I mean, he's not a naturally elegant skater or anything like that, but highly functional guy.

And when you mentioned Matt Savoy and Vasily Podkozin, I mean, those guys have a lot of promise.

I mean, we identified that.

Everybody identified that fairly early in the season.

You talk about negative asset players, positive asset players, where you maximize the cap space that you have is incredibly important.

And both those guys are outplaying the value of their contract.

And Vasily Podkozin by a lot.

I mean, last night, the goal that he scored was an incredible goal.

It was...

like a Mark Messier-style goal where he took off up the middle and blew by Rasmus Andersen.

And, you know, he's 215 or 220 pounds, I'm told.

And he was just flying up the ice and tireless worker and great teammate and just gets the game.

So, I mean, amazing addition.
