Yeah, and I want to mention one other thing.
You need goaltending in the playoffs.
And if you get the hot hand like Vegas has gotten with Carter Hari, I mean, his numbers are ridiculous.
And that was the one thing missing from Vegas all season long.
All their metrics were top 10 throughout the entire league.
They had the second worst or the worst five-on-five save percentage until Carter Hart came back.
So they were just missing goaltending.
And they got Hart.
And the other thing Torts does is he can empower you and give you a ton of confidence.
And that's what he's done with Carter Hart.
I know he went in there and said, Hartsy, you're my guy.
You're our number one guy.
If we're going anywhere, it's because of you.
And you could totally tell Carter Hart's playing.
He knows how valuable he is to that team.
And that's what Torts can do.
He can tear you down, but he can also build you up.
And so...
I didn't think it would be a sweep or Vegas in five, which is looking like that's probably what it's going to be.
I thought Colorado would win in six, but Colorado's not getting the saves.
