You saw it Saturday as well.

Two straight games where they had trailed throughout the most part.

Matt Boldy shorthanded goal.

Shout out to Matt Boldy coming back, getting another goal 22 away from 50.

Three shorties on the year two.

Love that.

But no, in general, they've been trailing, but their responses are really quick and they're fairly, they answer those goals quickly.

a lot and i kind of dig it like it's not usually you'd say like this isn't sustainable especially because during november you saw them not have um not trail for like game upon game period upon period and now it's kind of switched but it seems to be a good a good balance for them if any of that makes sense

don't think it's me i think it's probably you i don't think so i just let's just keep a lead let's get this overtime thing out of the way from a writer's standpoint and somebody who has to file at the buzzer so i can get my butt down to the locker rooms before they open especially when teams are on uh back to back like the panthers were the other night and i'm always terrified i'm gonna miss somebody like i'm like i'm not gonna get into the room like i had to get brad marchand right because he scored the winner he's returned from injury blah blah blah

So I'm just, I'm on edge and I've got two stories written.

I've realized though, I prefer having a shootout in those situations from a file at deadline or file at the buzzer standpoint, because I don't necessarily need to have the game winning goal description in there too.

Right.

Which is easy, but it's also not because I literally have to be like, okay, what happened?

What time?

Because those guys leave the ice immediately.

Right.

And then the rooms can open as quickly as they're out there.

So I'm just like, it's, it's a lot of,

pressure for me and making sure the correct and then i'm always fearful that i'm gonna send in the wrong story like i'm gonna send in the wild one and they didn't win it's because each of it's a very different writing but i would agree i don't care that's a little that's a little behind the scenes of what goes on behind the written story everybody

didn't even make it to the skyway either thursday or saturday night because they closed the skyway at midnight so it was negative degrees and we have to walk up us gals i walked out with sarah mcclellan of the star tribune and heather rule because we were all like let's stick together because it's freezing and we don't have the skyway lighting this up but um yeah i wanted to bring that up the last thing i want to bring up before we get into some cues you guys because again tons of great questions still to get to
