There is Carrier.

There's Noah Dobson.

Like all these guys like are veterans.

And then you throw in Hudson and Gouldie as well.

But their inability to kind of process and make decisions, functional decisions, has really stood out.

Well, Chatfield, Keiondre Miller, and I would even say Nick Ehlers, all stylistic fits for Carolina.

And I think that was a lesson I tried to take away from Florida's back-to-back cups when they would go out and make these acquisitions.

And it felt like they got the...

specificity in the roles of going out to acquire specific guys rather than just saying, oh, this guy's a good player.

We'll slot him into the third line and that shifts everything accordingly.

They got specific guys to fit certain roles.

It just seems so crystallized and clear for Florida and now certainly that way for Carolina right now.

I don't know if you were listening to the show yesterday while you were road raging in your car, but in case you weren't, we were talking.

We were kind of just having this conversation.

I'll pose it to you.

Whose career would you rather have, McDavid or Eichel's?

Yeah, I think it was a pretty 50-50 split from people texting in.

Sat was of the mind with... I'd rather be the best player on the planet.

But suddenly being the guy that shuts people down and wins cups is quite the history to make.

So if it winds up being Vegas, Carolina, the series may start before we talk to you next.
