They're going to give these guys trouble because games in the playoffs are decided by a goal usually, Shane.

They're not decided with 6-2 and some of the games that you saw in the Buffalo series.

And playing against a system that's man-on-man all over the ice, it just takes one skilled guy to make one play that could be the difference in a game like Slavkovsky did.

He made it against Sveshnikov, who was the last man back because his other defenseman,

We're up the ice covering their men.

Carolina is not going to change, man.

They're not going to make any adjustments.

They're just going to try and do what they generally do much better.

Well, they obviously work pretty well.

be ready because you're probably playing game one against Buffalo.

Like we're, we're going to get you back in when they scratched them from game set.

And that's part of like really good communication and keeping your players on their toes.

Struble didn't play the whole Buffalo series because of Jack guys value to that equation.

And yet Struble for the particular challenge of playing Carolina makes a lot more sense.

You know, you need to move the puck quick.
