It's not off the ice.

It's, you know, people don't care most of the time, you know, what kind of, I mean, it's always good to be a good person and hopefully people look at that way, but it's what happens on the ice, you know, like as you play as a team.

You know, I mean, I played against a lot of,

guys that were hated by both the other team and their teammates.

But when it came time to play, you know, those teammates could count on that person to do their thing and win.

So, yeah, I don't know.

It's a tough one.

Because now, the problem now is, you know, when you're drafting, you can't make a mistake for two or three years.

You really can't.

And if you stumble...

you know, you're going back a couple more years.

So it's really interesting.

You know what, I think they've got a good base right now, like for young guys.

But those guys have to turn out too.

So it has to be almost another perfect storm going the other way.

You know, and drafting is going to be, you know, huge.

I mean, this year with their first pick, you can't screw that one up because, you know, you're going to have a good player regardless where you end up.

But it's how you fill in the blanks after that.

A good locker room is when you're in there, it's time to work.

That's basically it.
