And he's up 1-0 in his series.

And Quinn Hughes says, I want out of here.

And he's down 1-0 in his series.

But still, they're both playing.

Connor Hellebuck.

Well, the thing about the Canadian markets for the last decade is they have had more superstars than maybe any other decade, or you've got to go back to the 80s.

Think about the heart winners.

McDavid, Dry Subtle, Hellebuck.

Matthews, Quinn Hughes won a Norris, right?

Like, you've got, you had superstars.

You had Eric Carlson in Ottawa prior to leaving, where he won multiple Norris trophies.

You know, if you look at the last 10 years, there have been a lot of superstars playing in Canadian markets, and none of the teams could win.

I mean, Edmonton got to, exactly, Carey Price.

Like, Edmonton got to two cup finals, Montreal got to a cup final.

And that's it.
