Yeah.
I got it written down on a napkin right now, so.
I think just one of the things is they've been playing together pretty much the whole year.
And, you know, and I think the biggest thing was, you know, obviously Stanky playing center this year, which he's done a fantastic job his first year playing in the NHL.
And they've been playing all year.
The chemistry is just growing, you know, throughout the year.
And it's been fun to watch and, you know, they're all three of them are so competitive and, you know,
They all got good speed, and I don't know, they're just, for some reason, the chemistry's really gotten good, and it continues that way, and what they're doing in the playoffs, I mean, it's obviously fun to watch, and fun to watch them win, but.
I mean, their line just seems to be clicking every single night, and that's obviously great for the Hurricanes.
And, you know, I don't really camp on my finger on one particular thing other than that they've played together the whole year.
And they're super close off the ice.
So that's, I mean, him and Stanky are really good buddies.
So I would credit a lot of that, credit their success, a lot of that just playing the whole year together.
Because as most of us know in the NHL, lines shift from game to game, if not within the game.
So they've been doing a good job.
Well, I mean, I think the biggest thing, he kind of grew into his body a little bit.
You know, he was a smaller kid as I was, but, I mean, he was smaller growing up, you know, in peewees and bantams in high school.
And, you know, he always had that dedicated work ethic.
And I know he always wanted it.
I mean, he did so many things in the sport court in the offseason.
