I just did my own thing.
I wasn't patrolling the red line like Gillies, though.
No, you were in the corner.
I was in the corner.
That was the only time you went in the corner, too, in warm-ups.
Yeah.
I wasn't getting hit.
I was trying to get them going.
Like, you know, the different, every arena is different lighting and all that stuff.
And I would just, you know, the ice comes off a little differently.
anybody tell you to do that no it was probably from actually i remember wit one time you were like i watched nick lidstrom's whole warm-up one time and just kind of tried to mimic what he did and then from that on i might have taken a few things from different guys but it was kind of one of those things just over the years you know you get more and more and kind of just when they say copy it's a copycat league usually they're talking about plays during the games my copycat league was just stealing guys like warm-up routines
I remember Lidstrom's was, he would fly out, whatever, after a couple laps, he would do a one foot stop right in front of the red line in the middle of the ice.
And then he would take his stick and he would softly just like bat away the ice that had come from the one foot stop.
And then he was ready to go.
And I was like,
that is so cool.
How do you look that cool?
And like your gear, where is that sick?
And then you'd have to assist play 27 minutes and be plus three.
So that was the difference.
