Ajo's going to have a career high in assists this year.

So Sveshnikov is close to his career high.

Ehlers is having a career year, more points, assists than...

goals he might not get the 30s he could get there but he's having a career year in points and assists so uh so yeah so Detroit they're kind of similar that way uh to Carolina you know the goalies don't really have a guy um their defense is good obviously cider kind of blossomed this year Edmondson's coming um but he's not there every night

And then, obviously, they made the move at the deadline.

But after that, it's not impressive decor in front of up-and-down goalies who had a great start.

You know, Gibson was saving them.

They come down to earth.

So, yeah, it's just not a team.

It's just not quite a strong enough team that we're, hey, we're top five in the conference.

So they're going to hang around there.

I've had them out for a while now.

I just don't think there's enough gas there left.

It just doesn't seem.

And now...

It's strange because they definitely have assets.

They definitely, you know, they got unlucky with some of their lottery ball situations and when they had the picks and where they had the picks.

You know, you're kind of a prisoner to that.

You know, the Sharks win the lottery and they're celebrating and everybody's going to be rich in that franchise for 15 more years.

You know, the GM's getting three, four contracts, the coach getting three, four, all because of that guy, right?
