And I don't think I'm speaking out of 218 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 10: turn by saying that, you know, just the skill on display, 219 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 10: the style that they play, the speed with which they play. 220 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 10: When we were in Montreal, you know, Dave Maloney and I, 221 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 10: you know, would at each TV time out look at 222 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 10: one another and say, wow, these guys play fast. 223 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 2: You know. 224 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 10: I think the biggest question is it had has been 225 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 10: for the last couple of years.

And I think we've started to see he 228 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 10: holds his own from a physicality standpoint better than when 229 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 10: he first got in the league. But man Cole call 230 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 10: fields an elite sniper. Layne Hudson deserving of the Calder 231 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 10: Trophy last year, he's skace like the win.
