I do, too.
I'm not even talking about Keith Pelley.
I'm talking about Matt Sundin and his legacy in the city.
I get it.
I understand that, and he's got to take that on.
I get it.
But the point I'm making is it would be very easy for Matt to say, I'm not doing that.

I'm Matt Sundin.
I fly in once a year.
