Yeah, and that's where I was going to go.
If he's doing it that way, it can work.
But has he done that?
Is he going to do it?
All the talk last summer was that he's put in all the work and he's done all this.
I mean, yeah, it looked like he had a decent summer, but it didn't translate to anything tangible.
It didn't translate to his speed coming back or him becoming a game-breaker with his play with the puck or all of those things.
None of it came back.
I'm still not going to sit here and say that he didn't try this year.
He, in a lot of ways, tried, but...
you have way more to your game and you have to affect it way more.
So it's not the same bar as a fourth liner that tries really hard and doesn't get his points or doesn't do his job from time to time because that's the level of the player.
You're talking about someone that's at a completely other spectrum or end of the spectrum here.
So, I mean, to what we were originally saying, we were talking about it a bit yesterday and
But like, to me, it's, I mean, that's why all year or for the second half, I guess I've been saying that unless it's the exact right older veteran that's been here, you have to move on new guys in because there's no scar tissue there.
And not just for the player, but for the media, for the fans, all of it where, you know, when we talked about it last year, if he could turn it around, like say Pedersen,
starts out hot next year 25 games in he's got 35 points right like hey great that'd be unbelievable and then he goes on a five game stretch where he gets three shots on goal you're instantly going to drop back to well here we go again it's Stuart Skinner and Edmonton like it gets to a point where to me not just for the team but for the player as well like it is just better to move on
I mean, since starting full-time at the beginning of last year on the media side, I feel like it's been every single day, right?
Like, but it really has.
It's been an everyday checking in of, well, how was last night?
