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?

And, you know, Jankowski didn't say that was...

you know, specifically what they did and that they there was no mandate to, OK, start now with the high flips.

He just said starting to started to play a little more simple, a little more hurricane hockey.

So that helped get the game tied.
