Juice (Jared McCann)

He skates it.

He's kind of fearless out there.

And I think the one good thing about Carolina is we all know how they're such a great team, right?

Like, you can't really fool us.

I think we know they're a great team.

And that line has kind of taken over the Aho, Svechnikov, Jarvis line in the playoffs.

And they're playing better.

They're producing more.

And you're seeing the transition where they're starting more power plays, they're starting more games, and they're kind of getting played more like a first line.

And I don't see any pout from the Jarvis line.

Jarvis is just going out and getting run over and taking hits to make plays and blocking shots and doing whatever he can to win.

So that's a sign of a good playoff team.

When one line's going, you ride the hot hand, and there's no hard feelings from everybody else above them.

So, yeah, interesting question.

You and Witt, defensemen, three defensemen.

Who was your toughest, like, matchups?

Like, I hated playing the little guys, the little fast guys that you go near them and they tight turn away from you.

Like, I loved, like...

I didn't love it, but I didn't mind playing Joel Thornton and Ryan Clow and Marlo.

I didn't mind that line more so than a line with all these little speedsters.
