for a fourth-round drop pick.

I mean, it's buyer's remorse or seller's remorse in Vancouver, for sure, when they watch what this guy has been able to do, not only on the ice, but how he's been able to integrate himself because of his work ethic into the team and gain so much

respect from his teammates.

One thing I learned in the game of hockey very early on in my playing career is every bit of work that you put in on your game, whether it's on the ice or off the ice, pays off.

And people notice, and I used to tell players when I was coaching,

And managing that, you know, get caught doing things right occasionally.

And it has a residual effect on the leash that you get from the coaching staff.

And obviously these guys are, you know, development seldom happens in a straight line.

And there are peaks and valleys.

But when you consistently do everything that you can control from a work ethic and pay attention to the details of the game, that development curve goes consistently up.

And both those guys are on that path.

There's plenty of room left for both those players to evolve into something much greater than they are today.

Yeah, those guys that you mentioned, Hyman, I mean, they just, they get the details of the game and they put the work ethic in and they're going to maximize everything in their God-given ability because of their work ethic and the way they conduct themselves.

There's no stone unturned.

And that's why those guys are,

get the results that they're getting and you know the guys that drive coaches crazy are guys that you know are accepting

performance far below a level of their capability.

And those guys drive coaches crazy.

But when you have guys like Matthias Ackholm, Zach Hyman, Vasily Petkozin, those guys, they drive the bus in terms of your day-to-day work ethic and practice with the rest of your team, too, as well.

Well, we've seen amazing turnarounds from goaltenders that come from the depths of despair to getting on top of their game and being unreal.
