He was the third.
That's the one for me.
Do I think McKinnon's top five?
Do I think that Celebrini should be top five?
I hope we're in for a great game, too.
I hope we're in for seven games because I think that Canadians lightning series is going to be tough to top.
But it does feel like on paper, these teams are even closer, like by the numbers, by roster strength, that it should be neck and neck, should go the distance.
I totally agree on that.
Sabres jumped on these opportunities.
They played with a lot of speed, and I think that's impressive because their speed and their aggression in general helped them win that series against the Bruins, which you watch the Bruins and say, okay, 2026, we're done with the big, bad Bruins.
If you can't keep up with a team like the Buffalo Sabres, you're going to be in trouble.
So it's exciting to see how...
you know, these faster teams are making an impact when that's not your like prototypical playoff hockey, but also the way that the Sabres adjusted to it, knowing still play to that, even though you're going up against an opponent who can, you know, match you in that speed and actually play that pace for Montreal, definitely need to adjust to that too, because they had a series where they went up against a team like Tampa Bay who looked slower and older at times compared to Montreal.
It's all about who adjusts first.
I also think it's going to be interesting to see how they keep working with that Suzuki line to get them on the score sheet a little bit more consistently here because we haven't seen enough from them.
So I wonder if maybe Dobson has had those two games to shake off the rust a little bit more.
