that will not be the others and I think it I think your penalty kill and the way you play in the neutral zone and the way you play in D zone kinda all gotta go together.
I don't I don't see a scenario where you play real uh up tempo, up tempo and then your penalty kill's just standing there eating and absorbing shots.
Um again, if you go back to um the last three Stanley Cup champions, they both play the exact same penalty kill and and
and that will be the pressure penalty kill.
Um there's times where you can't go for sure, but it's gonna take a little bit to get used to, especially some of the D that have been used to uh maybe not pressuring and being as aggressive.
But I find, you know, when you pressure, pressure, pressure, uh a lot of times teams just bobble pucks on their own and and hand them down.
We're gonna have to earn that confidence and we're gonna have to teach it quick, um, but you're you're not gonna see a passive penalty kill.
Hey, it's Bob Stoffer.
I just wanted to let you know that you can listen to Oilers Now ad-free on Amazon Music, included with Prime.
I I had an opportunity to play him a couple of times late last year.

You look at Jalen Chatfield in Carolina who I know because he played for the Windsor Spitfires, but you know, in Vancouver he couldn't find a regular spot and you know, and it clearly someone made a decision.
that you know he wasn't good enough and here's a guy that's six foot four and can skate.
You know, when do they find their niche?
A and a lot of times they do.
Sometimes it's twenty seven, twenty eight, thirty years old.
Um here's a guy that's still young and still growing.
I think that you got yourself a hockey player there.
Yeah, absolutely.
You know what?
