We still had Sissons and then he got hurt.
So now we're down to two guys.
We bring a guy up, but, you know, we had to find a replacement internally.
So I actually used Riley Smith for a few games and then I talked to Mitch about it.
You know, he plays the game offensively like a center, right?
He's a guy that he's a transporter of the puck through the neutral zone.
He needs it on his stick in the O zone to make his plays.
So certainly plays that way with the puck.
Without the puck was going to be...
trial and error.
But Biz, he's unbelievably gifted defensively with his stick, his brain.
He's above people all the time.
The challenge was face-offs.
That's it, right?
So we'd use different guys to help him on the wing with that.
But even that, you know, he wanted to go dig in on it.
He worked on it after practice.
You know, it takes a lot of pride in everything he does.
So I'm happy for him.
I mean, I heard you guys.
