That sort of consistency.

And, oh, as you know, playing the other team's best lines, playing top six minutes against better pairings and different matchups, it's a different existence.

It's just harder.

It's trickier to do.

So, again, I don't know if he thrives in that situation either.

But he can be a valuable guy.

Down your lineup, they chip in 12, 15, 17, largely five-on-five goals.

Like, that's a guy you can play with.

Hitting Krebs.

Obviously, maybe more jam in his game.

He's playing a big-time role right now for Buffalo.

He's a smaller guy, similar kind of body, not as talented, but maybe more grit in there.

But I think he probably should play more.

And the obvious one is Easton Cowan.

Like, you know, it's time.

This is a reality of where they are in the standings and veteran guys won't like it.

Well, I'm sorry if you're Stephen Lorenz or Callie Yarncroke and you wish you could play more.

You had 60 games to play more.

Now it's we're going to find out what else is there.

Quillen, Bo Gru, whoever you want to bring up for the minors, Cowan, Robertson, whoever it might be.
