Like when he talked about sensing, okay, game four, you're up two goals.

You let that slip away.

What type of emotional, I don't want to say damage, but that emotional feeling that's going to linger.

How do they...

Avoid that.

Well, insert Brendan Gallagher into the lineup, knowing what kind of jolt that was going to give the rest of the group.

Didn't play a ton under seven minutes, but didn't matter.

First shift of the game, opening the scoring three minutes in.

And, you know, as St.

Louis talked about, rewrite the narrative.

If you don't like a moment that could potentially define a series, Gallagher and the Canadians did just that in game five.

I've well, I've never had that happen before where players are in another room down the hallway.

They have access to what was our truck feed so they could see the interview in real time.

Not only could they see it, they could hear it.

I was like, I felt I was in the twilight zone.

Well, certainly the thought goes into my mind going, what are they all thinking about this?

Like, as I said to Dobish, I'm like, we better make this good.

And the funny part was, so the last time I interviewed Dobish, it was after game one.

And that was when, you know, the start of overtime, he accidentally went to the wrong net initially and asking him about that.
