If you went in the corner with Chris Chelios or any of those guys I just mentioned,
And it was almost the best thing for me as a young guy because it's not, you're going in there and I'm going to see, if you go in there with the attitude or approach, I'm just going to see what happens.
They're taking the puck every time.
So you got to go in there with your best stuff.
They're hard to hit.
You could try, like you always say, I'm going to, and back in those days, like you could crush Chris Chelios.
You could lay out Nick Lidstrom.
You could hit Chris Pronger.
No one's going to, like, grab you and beat the piss out of you like what happens nowadays.
But that's the one thing, Marty, that stuck out with Chris Chelios is the competitiveness along with the smarts.
And that's ultimately a big factor in what makes them elite.
They know where the puck is going.
Do you know how many times Chris Chelios or Nick Lidstrom or Prongs would sniff out like a lazy forward that was just going to be rolling it behind them to start a cycle?
And they'd just be standing on the wall waiting for the puck because they knew the dummy was going to do that.
And it was so easy for them to get it out.
Like, that's what they did all the time.
They sniffed out cycles.
They knew what the forwards were thinking, and they're just ultra-competitive.
Like, you had to battle every time in front of the net, and if you took the puck off them, you got a problem on your hands.
You're going to get a cross-check, a slash.
