um, to play our game and stuff like that.

So I think just trying to manage that as best as you can, um, as well as just staying in the moment and being with your team and enjoying and kind of remembering the reason why we all play is because we love it, not for the fame or, um, whatever.

So, um, yeah, it's been, it's been good.

Um, like I said, a lot of ups and downs, um, lots of adversity, but, um, yeah, I think like as a player, it's,

There's a lot of stuff to think about, but yeah, it's been good so far.

Yeah, I think I'm a guy that plays with speed.

It's kind of dynamic all over the ice.

Obviously, I love to create offense, play off the rush.

Um, but I also, I like to create lanes from me and my teammates, um, where it's dragging guys to me and finding guys.

Um, uh, I think I'm a really good leader as well.

Um, and I like to shoot the puck, um,

Definitely.

I think that's something I've always played with.

That's always been my style of play.

um, I'd say I'm more of the speed the game up type of player.

Um, you know, I can slow it down when, when I need to, but, um, yeah, I would say most of the time, um, push the pace and, um, make defenders uncomfortable and, um, put them on their heels.

My defensive play.

I think I, I,

As well as my playmaking, I thought last year I was kind of more of a shooter, and this year I've expanded my playmaking, showed that ability.

But I think I was mostly working on my defensive side of the game.
