Oh, is that it?

It's the guy.

It's the guy that pushed that contract over the line.

And quite honestly, from what we've heard, did it in the face and in spite of other people who were saying, don't do it.

They made a huge gamble, a huge gamble.

If you want to go back to, I mean, I know there's a million different Fisher and fracture points over the last few years, but the moment that they made the decision to keep Pedersen and then double down with that gigantic contract.

It set off a course of action that saw the Miller trade, the talk at Exodus, the Hughes trade, 32nd place in the NHL.

And they're still, still trying to, you know, and there's like five different things they're trying to do.

They're trying to prop him up.

They're trying to recoup whatever sunk cost is with the contract.

And now you've got the president of hockey ops saying with Pedersen, we're damned if we're doing, we're damned if we don't.

Like that is a huge thing to say for a guy that you signed to an $11.6 million a year deal.

In the not too distant past.

Yeah.

It's crazy.

I'm sorry, but it's crazy.

Okay, we didn't do it, but we can save the... I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

I'm sorry.

That Gensel penalty was ridiculous in overtime.
