And you're not sitting every night and it's like, okay, this guy needs to score two tonight.

Power play needs to step up tonight for us to win.

No, we just go out and we do, we execute.

And you know what?

If I have a shitty night tonight, there's probably 11 others that are going tonight.

So it's not that big of a deal.

where you don't have the same mental fatigue as a top guy that's like, I need to score tonight.

We have to produce tonight, otherwise we're not winning.

So it gets a little bit easier in that sense.

The flip side of that is, like I said, when that scoring does disappear, when checking gets tighter, when other teams start skating just as hard, competing just as hard as you do, scoring becomes a little bit harder because that one-on-one deception, beating, doing things on their own,

They don't have that in the same sense.

So now if we don't get our quantity, we might not get enough goals to win these games.

I would say he's the outlier here because he's played against men all year.

You can argue McKenna, he's played against 20-year-olds, 21-year-olds, and that's not playing pro.

He's played in...

Arguably the toughest league in Europe.

It's not the best league.

I still say that that's the KHL.

But the Swedish league is the hardest league to play in.

It's the most structured, defensively sound league and stuff like that.
