We've seen the blue jackets fall off a bit.

These other teams that are competing against are not that good.

And they banked enough points to stay two points ahead, three points ahead, four points ahead.

in crucial junctures like that.

It's, it's, and now is that as part of that?

Cause the, the loser's point.

Absolutely.

But it all counts, man.

And I think, you know, when you look at the competition and you look at it again, the Columbus and Detroit's and Islanders of, of, of the world, Boston, whatever, these are really flawed teams.

And I think the fact that they stayed far enough ahead of them, you know, really throughout the course of the season to give themselves a workable bumper coming into the stretch run.

I think it's,

It gave me some degree of faith in them getting it done.

And, you know, last night was a huge part of that.

If they lose in regulation to the Islanders, we're having a completely different conversation.

Right.

So margins are slim, but ultimately I think they're, they're the best team of that bunch.

And, and I think we're seeing that play itself out over the, over the, you know,

Last week or over then soon, a couple weeks.

They haven't been great for the last week or so, as incredible as they were.

From the coaching change on, like Rick Bonas is going to get coach of the year votes.
