But the other part that I really liked that Manny brought up was like having fun and, you know, like the NHL is a pretty good league.

And that doesn't mean that you don't work hard and you push each other and all that, but you have to be able to look around.

And I wish I would have been better at this while I was playing, but looking around and like appreciating where you are and getting to

go to work in a dressing room and then go put gear on and chase a piece of rubber around.

It's a business, it's serious, and you have to put everything you have into it.

But at the same time, man, you're chasing a piece of rubber.

Like go have some fun.

Like that's where you let the passion take over.

And you can feel that when Manny and RJ talk, but you let that passion take over.

Let the young guys have imagination.

Yeah, you got to reel them in in different ways, but don't take away the skill.

Don't take away that,

that young love of the sport, right?

Like I've seen a lot of young players come through the American league or up in the NHL that as soon as they get there, the team drafted them, they know what player they are.

And then they try and change everything about that player.

And then he's done playing in a couple of years because he hates the game, right?

Like you have to feed that passion.

It's a bit of the cookie, you know, out in front of you, but with a bit of fire behind you, pushing you forward, that's what a good coach does.

You do, for sure, and then

The other part is, you know, like a change of position.
