Just absolutely crazy. I mean... Got back to me today, by the way. Oh, did he? Yeah. There we go. Just to check in.
He'll be on sometime in the next couple weeks. Cool. Looking forward to that. See who texted us before the puck dropped last night?
No, I didn't see that one.
Well, he might be on before.
Oh, wait. Yeah, that guy.
Yeah, I saw that one, too. Not everybody's going to like his appearance, is my guess. All righty. We're going to get to it. Colin Chalk. Everybody loves hearing from Colin. With the Condors report for Equus, Alberta's largest power co-op. Choose community. Choose Equus at EQUS.ca. Hello, Colin. How are you doing? I'm doing great, Bob.
How about yourself? Big win last night for the big boys.
Yep. You guys, do you still go to that? I haven't been in Bakersfield since 22 when you took over as head coach of the farm team when Jay got called up. Do you still go to one of those establishments to watch? Do you guys congregate there to watch all the Oilers games?
Yeah, once in a while we'll go to the art house or something like that. But, you know, be at home or, you know, we'll go to Keith Kraske's, you know. So, yeah, we'll get together now and then for sure. We watch them. And it was a good Oilers win, that's for sure.
pride do you take and I know a quiet night last night from Savoy McDavid and Hyman after they were brilliant the last regular season game but how much have you enjoyed watching the evolution specifically of Matt Savoy during the course of the season after he played virtually all season last year with you
Yeah, you know, it's really what you do or it's why you do it, right, to have that feeling that players are able to go up and contribute in the NHL and, you know, get to chat with them about their first game or their first call and, you know, give them a text here and there when they have a great moment. So, you know, it's really how we're measured in the body of work down here and, yeah, We're happy that we're able to be a part of their development. Matt Savoy was a top-ten pick. He was already a very, very good player before anybody in Bakersfield put their hands on him. But everybody, Keith McCambridge with the penalty kill, Adam Grew, a skilled development, myself with big picture, getting him to understand how important it was to play without the puck in power play minutes.
You know, all those sorts of different moments. And then the player, right, has to be willing to trust you and meet you halfway. And that was incredible to work with. So, you know, similar to his AHL start, a little slow in the beginning, right, and not really finishing, not really scoring.
