He's hard to move. voice-verified

Would you sacrifice some of those goals, whatever that number is, so he doesn't get 60, he gets 50, or he gets 45, but there are other aspects of his game that's changed. voice-verified

So he does complement the players around him more and does some of the things that Jim Hiller and before him Craig Berube were voice-verified

get to voice-verified

A little bit. voice-verified

You know, again, I think it's too early. voice-verified

But when you look at the makeup of the team, it does feel in a lot of ways that the top six is locked for the most part. voice-verified

And you might even stretch that into the top nine. voice-verified

They still have a ton of time for Matthew Nyes, even though on a daily basis I continue to hear... voice-verified

trade rumors and all kinds of wild stuff around this kid which in my opinion is unfair and maybe it's just you know kind of the the drag out effect of of last year's trade deadline and then you go into the off season and the speculation around july 1st and all that by all accounts um he's healthy so that means a lot to him and and obviously to austin matthews but voice-verified

You know, he came into camp in terrific shape, so maybe they're looking and going, okay, we've got a healthy version of Matthew Nyes and a healthy version of Austin Matthews, and we've got a guy who's faster and stronger in Nyes than he's been to this point in his career. voice-verified

So let's at least see if there's some history there and some chemistry that we can work off. voice-verified

opening voice-verified

I mean, go voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

We get into the game of semantics here. voice-verified

Uh, I don't believe for a second that the Maple Leafs are shopping Matthew knives. voice-verified

I just think that it's conversations that managers would have had at the trade deadline or in the off season. voice-verified

And they're circling back. voice-verified

It's, voice-verified
