And what's funny is Florida kind of did that after losing to Vegas.

And then, like, oh, wow, and they had a lot of injuries.

But it's like, all right, we got to change this thing up a little bit.

They became nasty.

They became mean.

And then now...

It's like, all right, Edmonton has some aspects of that, and that's what I love.

You have the skill, you have the speed, you have all that.

But then to add Doc, and I'll tell you stuff, I think Fredrick...

It's one of those things where he was way better after the Olympic break.

Way better.

But it's still overall an underwhelming regular season.

And guys like that are saying, thank God the playoffs are here.

Like, I can change the narrative.

I can switch it all around.

And if he can be running around and him and Doc can be those Bass brothers.

I saw that little tweet today in terms of those guys being just absolute dogs out there.

Don't let anyone do anything to any of your teammates.

the fourth line like that it's like all right well we got some size on the back end we got guys who can move the puck we certainly have guys who can score i mean i love pod calls and he's built for the playoffs he'll run around he'll fight he can score it's it's a well-rounded team and you saying that they haven't had a chance to really have this lineup yet it's just showing like peak at the right time don't peak in november don't peak in january peak right as april rolls around and then just ride it into the sunset and try to get to june again

It meant everything.
