It was a brilliant goaltending performance from Curtis Joseph, who out-dueled a Hall of Fame netminder, by the way, in that series. Texas, the correct answer, the team the Oilers beat in 98, and the first correct text we get, Aidan Gannon will reach out and get a pair of tickets to tonight's game five, the Edmonton Oilers and the Anaheim Ducks.

I'm not doing too bad, Bob. Thanks for having me on.

Yeah, I snuck down to Coachella Valley on Saturday to see you guys play. A little bit unlucky that night. Didn't have a lot of juice early. Battled back from 4-2 down. Gave up a late one loss, 5-4. Then obviously ran into some problems Sunday in game three. Down 4-0 after two. Made a game of it and then had to pull your goalie. You lose in three to Coachella Valley. You've had a couple days to decompress it. Your thoughts on the series that was and the season that was?

Colin Chaulk 2:52

Series, you know, for sure. Game one, you know, outplayed them, outchanced them at home, which was excellent. You know, built a lead. Now they're facing elimination. You know, I thought both the first two periods in game two, Coachella had a little more juice than us. But, you know, I think we limited them like 15 or 16 shots. So it wasn't both teams. I think we're playing a little bit safe. You know, got a little bit away from us there in the third. But then, you know, this team all season long, you can never count them out. And here we are tied. And if you go back on that fifth goal, we won two clean face-offs in the diesel. In the first one, we iced it under no real pressure. The next one, we won the face-off again, and then we had a full possession turnover with little pressure.

Colin Chaulk 3:43

So that was really the story of our season, that just learning with a lot of offensive players, which we loved, and the attacking mindset there. And it built us to be a top three team offensively in the American Hockey League. It was more of that on night two that just, hey, we want to make plays. We want to be offensive. And in the second period, we outshot them 15, I think, to five in period one. Coco was good. In game three, yep. In game three, right. And now Coco was good. And then, you know, there were some outside shots. We still generated 15 shots. So excellent start by our team. And second period, as you know, went down four and up. And one was on a penalty kill goal, which we had won the faceoff, didn't clear.

And then the next three goals against were full possession turnovers that Coachella Valley was not severely pressuring us. So just self-inflicted, you know, big individual errors that led to goals. And, you know, the great part about this team, we talked about it after the second period,
