It's hard to go to the cup final and come back and you just want to get back to the playoffs and you got to grind.

They did it twice.

And so this regular season, at times it's exhausting.

Like the whole time they figured they knew they'd be in.

It's just like, oh, get me to April 20th.

Get me to when this really matters and we can try this again.

And now they're here.

So the quiet confidence, I agree.

the team it's as high as it's ever been I mean is the pressure high no doubt but that's that's what guys want I think that's what makes this game so fun is having pressure at at the fingertips almost and seeing the way McDavid approaches this and those two guys him and Leon like their numbers in the playoffs I mean they're behind Gretzky and Lemieux in point per game like that is crazy they're the best I've ever seen and then they get better in the playoffs that's not common for a

I just, I think now the goaltending, no doubt.

I'm not going to sit here and say there aren't questions, but I believe in Ingram and I believe that it could end up being more people than one in there as we've seen the last two years.

But it's just the excitement level finally starting again because it's 82 games.

It's exhausting.

And now they're here and it's like, all right, finally, like, let's try to do this thing again.

I see the ability to outweigh opponents and the poise and the little shoulder and head shakes.

And that's not even mentioning the cannon he has.

And I don't I it drives me insane.

And I try not to argue on Twitter, but he plays with David and Leon.

Of course, he gets a lot of points.

It's like that's not a valid argument to me because there's been plenty of people.
