I'm happy for you.

Good for Montreal.

Well, then you got to think about what you're going to do.

You always have to have a plan for something.

You always have to have an insurance plan.

And I think they obviously as a staff are thinking that way, but it's not something they're going to put out publicly.

I think the biggest thing, you know, you talked to Chris about what happened with the second period.

One of the things that Canadians do need to do better is manage the puck when they get the pressure forecheck.

They didn't manage the puck very well in the second period.

Lots of turnovers in their own zone.

That kept plays alive.

But if I'm Rod Brindamore, I'm working more on my pressure forecheck and not giving up all these odd man rushes.

They had a lot of guys reaching for pucks tonight, not playing through people.

And I know they had more hits than Montreal.

I think it was 44-18, if I remember correctly, on the hit chart.

But that's a lot of home cooking, too.

They got to start playing through people better, especially defensively, talking about Carolina.

But that's not Montreal's fault.

Again, I thought Montreal played really well.

And I love Chris's point again on there are two teams out there.
