Elliotte Friedman

Those are two that come to mind for me.

Yeah, well, you know, Elliot, my bad because I clearly wasn't looking up at the video board during that commercial break when they had the tarps off, call to action.

But I will say as that third period went on, suddenly they're cutting to fan shots during stoppages and I'm seeing more and more people with their shirts off.

And clearly I didn't put two and two together.

I thought it was a big coincidence.

But yes, yes.

Great point by you.

That was a key moment in this comeback for Carolina.

It was cold in there and really throughout the whole day.

And of course, part of it being it's now getting quite hot in Raleigh during the day.

So trying to combat the conditions to make the ice as good as possible.

And we all know the wind tunnels that exist inside that Lenovo Center.

So Stankhoven with the goal that gets them going.

Still, Vegas looked...

like a team that had relatively things under control.

But, you know, I was asking after the game, actually Mark Jankowski, and wondering if, you know, those high flips, like we've seen Vegas do it.

You know, I think about that game against Colorado, the Mark Stone goal.

I think Ron showed that there on Thursday night.

And then one of the Brett Howden goals was, again, the high flip that just causes problems for the defense with the way the puck can bounce off the ice under pressure, especially when you've got a forward hunting them down.

And so I wondered, you know, was that a conscious adjustment for Carolina to start doing that a little bit, you know, to give Vegas a taste of their own medicine, I guess, or just to try something different from what they had been doing?
