I have no idea what people are talking about.

But nonetheless, we'll see how things unfold here.

We were just talking about this Minnesota Wild Dallas Stars series.

And currently the Wild have a 1-0 lead with just under four minutes to go in the first period.

Quinn Hughes scoring the opening goal.

And they have a chance to punch their ticket to the second round here.

I thought Dallas had an edge in this series, but not having Rupe Hintz seems to have really leveled the playing field down the middle.

Has that been the difference here?

Not having that edge down the middle between these two teams?

Yeah, no, I hear you on that.

And, I mean, we'll see how it kind of goes here between these two teams.

On the series between the Edmonton Oilers and the Anaheim Ducks, it's been so fascinating to see kind of the swings in this series.

Anaheim goes up 3-1.

They can't close it out.

Now, all of a sudden, you know, Edmonton is right back in this series, making it a thing.

How tough do you think it is for a young team?

Or is it easy for a young team when you have a 3-1 lead, you don't win it, you can't close that team out yet?

When do you start getting nervous when you're that more inexperienced squad like the Ducks?

Yeah, and I think the interesting part about this, it comes down to guys being banged up and finding ways to get through.

And that's just the story of the playoffs.
