Should I say it?

Go ahead.

I asked, is it Joe Pavelski?

So am I, because I'm, I guess I'm first surprised.

that this would even be something that interested Joe, maybe just at this time, because it feels like you mentioned his son, Nate, who, by the way, was selected in the USHL futures draft.

So got a heck of a player on his hands there.

And like, he's ripping it up.

He's playing in that pro athlete retired golf tour.

Yeah.

Anyway, it just, but I guess at the same time,

A bright hockey mind, as you say.

And if you get the itch, I mean, why not at least have the conversation of not knowing where it could potentially lead?

I mean, I know he's not currently working with them or doesn't play there anymore, but Joe Thornton, I would think would be one that at least has some familiarity around there.

I know the regime's different now than when he played for the Leafs for a brief time.

That's one name.

And it's funny.

Like, remember we interviewed in the second round, Brian Gianto is at one of the Buffalo Montreal games.

And he talked about coaching against St.

Louis when their kids were playing minor hockey against each other.

Oh, right.
