Not that they're a better coach or Craig Brewer is not a good coach.

It's it's a different system.

And I think you might see different results there.

So, yeah, I think they are a talented team.

Because what separates most teams in the NHL is the high-end guys.

Not the just-a-guy guys.

Because lots of teams have just-a-guys.

They might be a bit better in other areas.

But the difference makers in winning and losing are the high-end guys.

And right now, the high-end guys... And I think the other part of this conversation that needs to be said...

All the referencing to last year and how great they were last year.

They got great results.

They weren't a great process team last year.

They were sort of middle ground in chances and in shots and expected goals and all those things.

But goaltenders, amazing power play, amazing stars.

They were not some...

that just rolled over teams game after game after game.

They went from middle of the league this year to bottom third of the league, but they didn't go from fifth last year to 25th this year.

They went from 18th to 25th.

The drop has not been as precipitous.
