Oh, do I have to bring PK? Can I just go alone? No. Hey, we had a great time at Edmonton. We had a blast. It's a small town slash city, but we had a great time.

So that's not true, but I appreciate you pointing that out. The desk that everyone was complaining about was only in Edmonton for the three games there. We couldn't get our proper desk through customs. No, it was the difference in the setup that we had.

Therefore, we had the desk. You could see we were standing behind it, lit up perfectly. And in Edmonton, we were not afforded that luxury of having a suite. We sort of had an area, if you will, which was like really right in the middle of the crowd and a ceiling right above us. So we couldn't stand. So we had to sit in chairs. Therefore, we had to get a different table.

No, and I even mentioned it. I say I'm taking the desk home with me at the end. People don't like it, but as one of our bosses said, listen, it's a good thing.
