Again, you know, hypothetically, you know, you could talk about what's the value, et cetera.

I think there's a lot of really good players that would also fall in the category of hard to move because you like them and because they add value and because they're good players and they're on good contracts.

And so, you know, again, we'll go through all of that.

But, yeah, I think it's a fair assessment.

Thanks for having us.

Thanks for having us.

Appreciate you guys.

Thanks.

Yeah, it's a tough one for me to comment on.

I really don't think there's any merit to any of that.

And as far as I understood, it's been dismissed and it was just an allegation of some sort.

So I think there's a combination of things, even.

I think there's that part that you're talking about.

And I also think there's a part of the Toronto Maple Leafs where, you know, I don't think the league's going to do us any favors, you know, writ large.

And, you know, we want to get the job done here.

And we're not worried about, you know, the outside.

We're going to focus on our team and what we can control here.

And in terms of me personally, I've always tried to, you know, act as professionally as I can, be a good communicator, work with people to understand what they're looking to do in terms of transactions.

And I think if I can continue to do that, my history has been that I've been able to make good transactions for the team.

And that's my focus.
