Phil 111 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: Verlager is president of p K Verliger. He doesn't need 112 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: as big a business card as the queen either, but 113 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: probably knows more about the oil markets. And the oil 114 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: markets are kind of what's driving asset classes today. With 115 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: West Texas at thirty ninety one down three point six percent, 116 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: Brent crude is at forty one seventy six, that's a 117 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: three point one percent decline on the day. All this 118 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: after oil minister from about sixteen countries, including most members 119 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: of OPEC, met and cutter and failed to agree on 120 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: any kind of production limits film. Nobody in the oil 121 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: markets took that seriously. Uh. They never felt there was 122 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: gonna be any kind of meaningful reduction in the amount 123 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: of oil that was out there, just basically just a 124 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: fig leaf. And yet we see this kind of reaction. 125 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: Why the psycholo psychological reaction to something that everybody would 126 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: have told you last week wasn't going to mean anything anyway, Michael. 127 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: The word that I keep using irrational exuberants or my 128 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: my phrase, irrational petro exuperants. There are the the oil 129 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: market benefits from thousands, maybe not a million, people investing 130 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: in oil who are not involved in the industry open 131 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: interest in the futures markets well over five billion barrels 132 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: now and that grown. And what happened is that a 133 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: lot of people believe the hype and they thought something 134 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: was going to happen, and so they started to sell 135 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: and that is sent down the forward price. We'll know better, 136 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: Uh what's going on in about two two or three 137 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: o'clock when the cash price from Brent comes in, which 138 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: is what the price that people pay for a cargo 139 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,679 Speaker 1: of oil. That has been tightening in the physical market. 140 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: It's been tightening, and it's been tightening for a number 141 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: of reasons. Venezuela. Every time I talk on this show, 142 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: we talked about Venezuela. Well, now the power is about 143 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: to go out, and the presidents asked women not to 144 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: use hair uh hair dryers to blow their hair. Uh, 145 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 1: it's the elmno is killing the water behind the big damn. 146 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: He's got a good story on it in the Bloomberg line. 147 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: It's Uh, we see problems in Nigeria now. Kuwait today 148 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: is got a strike which probably will last a little while. 149 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: You go back and you Richard Hoss was talking about 150 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia there at the end of his interview on 151 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: the show, A very good comment. But what we have 152 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: also is uh uh the the problems in Kuwait, we 153 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: have the problems across the Gulf, and it's we're gonna 154 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: be nickeled and dived in terms of losing supply. So 155 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: you know, the situation is reversed for a while. Well, 156 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: the question then becomes how far would oil prices fall? 157 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: I don't think oil prices are going to fall very 158 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: much because Venezuela is tipping. Uh it may uh production 159 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: may drop dramatically. Uh And the next month or two 160 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: last week, uh Slumberje announced it was leaving and really 161 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: upset pdvs A because the national oil company there because 162 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: they the Venezuelans can't pay them. There the OPD slumberge 163 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 1: a couple of billion dollars and they and then is 164 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: Winna needs uh slamberge to make its oil fields work. 165 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: They also need electricity they don't have it. So I 166 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: had oil dips and then oil goes back up a 167 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: little bit. Uh, I don't think it goes up a 168 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: lot because what's going to happen is as these investors 169 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: step out, the economics of storing oil become problematic, and 170 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: we have stored over a billion barrels of oil over 171 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: the last year, and that some of that oil is 172 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: going to start start coming out of storage, so that 173 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: you know, we move up to say, into fifty dollar range, 174 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: and then that re restarts a good deal of uh 175 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: production in the United States and that will come back 176 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: pretty quickly. And uh, you know, so we go back down. 177 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: But it's you know, this is this was you know, 178 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: this is a selling by the rumors, sell the news. 179 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: Let's come back with still Lark Bliger to talk more 180 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: about what happens in the petroleum space, not just in 181 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: the asset, but also in the countries that produce it. 182 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Surveillance is brought to you by Mount Kisco Volvo 183 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: is it Mount Kisco Vovo dot Com?

And that's a bloomberg business flash. 213 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: Tom and Mike Carasco, thank you very much. We're talking 214 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: with Phil Verliger of PK Erligerum about the oil situation 215 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: now with the failure of the Doha talks and oil 216 00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: prices falling, and you mentioned you didn't think they would 217 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: go down that far, that they would then start to 218 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: rise again into the range. Does that then bring the 219 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 1: frackers back in? And if that's the case, then you 220 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: know where do prices go from there? This this gets 221 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: very hard to game out. I would imagine, Uh, it 222 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: is impossible the game out, you know. Mr hass said 223 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: the said that prices are essentially unfoecastable, and he's right. 224 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: You know, there's a range. It's clear the facilities want 225 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: to increase their production because they understand some of the 226 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: oil they have in the ground will never be produced, uh, 227 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: due to global warming considerations will be we won't be 228 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: using oil probably much, but they how much we produce 229 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: it's hard to say. I think that probably sixty is 230 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: as a cap of the Wall Street Journal had a 231 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: really good optic uh still there on the web. The 232 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: shows the cost of producing in various countries, and it's 233 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: well below sixty in the United States. So supply will 234 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: increase here, uh, supply will increase in Canada, Supply will 235 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: increase in Russia. Russia is a rich area for fracking. 236 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: It's could take some time, but there will be fracking. 237 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: And so the I think oil stays someplace. You know, 238 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: it'll go above sixty occasionally, it'll be in the thirty forties, 239 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: down to the thirties. I mean, they're the New York 240 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: The really interesting thing that nobody's talking about today, as 241 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: an article on the Saturday New York Times about Saudi 242 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: Arabia possibly pulling seven hundred billion dollars in assets in 243 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: the United States is a piece of well, discuss this 244 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: is where you're in terms of crossing over politics. I 245 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: saw that article. What's it mean, Well, it's I'm scared 246 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: because I think the Saudis are really would be really 247 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: worried if that legislation passed. The legislation would allow the 248 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: Saudia government to be sued. It would lift sovereign immunity 249 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: for the nine eleven attacks, and I understand why those 250 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: who were affected are worried. But if the Saudis, if 251 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: a law passes and the Saudis decide they want to 252 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: pull all that money, uh, it could have It could 253 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: really push the economy down, and that would take oil 254 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: prices down. Uh. Now you know, I was at the 255 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: Peterson Institute for International Economics for years, So I talked 256 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: to Ted Truman, who was quoted in the article. And 257 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: the conventional view is the Saudis wouldn't do that. The 258 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: conventional view is it would just disrupt financial markets too much. 259 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: But the conventional view is that the Saudi Arabia was 260 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: going to do something in November two thousand fourteen. This 261 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: comes back to what Richard hass was saying about the 262 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: stability of the Saudi government. This is a new bunch 263 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: of people. And if I were a Saudi, I would 264 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: look at this and say, Gee, the Iranian assets were 265 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: frozen from nineteen seventy nine until fifteen in the United States. 266 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't dare risk leading seven hundred billion dollars in 267 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: the United States. You pull that, you really disrupt the 268 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: world economy and gosh knows whereverything. Phil, thank you so 269 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: much for bringing this article. Michael McKee very quickly. Mr Truman, 270 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: who folks to put it in perspective, it's not outrageous 271 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: to say he invented the G twenty concept. Ted Truman quote, 272 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: the only way Saudi Arabia could punish us is by 273 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: punishing themselves, which is sort of the gameplay there. Michael, Yeah, 274 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: I known Ted for for years. Very smart man. Uh. 275 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, if Phil about Iran in this situation as well. 276 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: They're not necessarily tied up in the nine eleven bill, 277 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: but how much more oil can they produce? And what 278 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: kind of effect is the face off with the Saudi 279 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: Is going to have on their oil production? I one, 280 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm not sure about Iran. Uh, It's it's an enigma 281 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: to me. I think they can probably produce three or 282 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: four hundred thousand barrels of any more this year, uh, 283 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: and that will supplement the loss in production from some 284 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: other countries like Nigeria and as well, so so that 285 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: I don't think the Saudis are as worried about as 286 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: Iran as they are about UH. Some of the particular 287 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: Venezuela in these other countries. You know, the Saudis in 288 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: the Vealezuela has had a fight many years ago over 289 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: market ship events. We're gonna put push the United Saudis 290 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: out of the United States. So yeah, I think I 291 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: think Iran is a sideshow. I guess is the word 292 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: all used right now? It's it's not the real show. 293 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: That the real show is that the Saudis want to 294 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: keep the price at forty or fifty dollars a barrel 295 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: to build their market share. Maybe they'll let it go 296 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: to thirty or twenty five. They want to build their 297 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: market share. They want to produce their oil first. The 298 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: Coites want to produce their oil first. The UAE wants 299 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: to produce their oil first. And they want to let 300 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: the high cost producers shut down. Now that's the bottom line. 301 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: Who's the highest cost producers? I think right now, Venezuela's 302 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: probably the highest cost producer. Canada's number two, and uh 303 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: and those are you know, the two producers that are 304 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: will probably be uh see the quickest drop in output. 305 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: And I'm sure the thought he's understand that the fracking 306 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: in the United States is going to continue, and they 307 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: also understand fracking will continue in Russia, so that essentially 308 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: they want to keep the price to a level where 309 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: both of fracking isn't so great that it squeezes Middle 310 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: Eastern productor out. If you were the Philip cave Berliger 311 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: with us on oil, one of his August resume builders 312 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: was to be a professor and my right phil at 313 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: the University of Calgary. Yeah. I was a David Mitchell 314 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: and Canna professor there for several years. So it's not 315 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: your fault. The Canadians aren't in the Stanley Cup, right know, 316 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: that not my responsibility. And Dryden with a classmated Cornell 317 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 1: and and that's good. Sorry, sorry, you know, And I'm 318 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: sorry over one doesn't have a hockey team. Well I 319 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: am too. But but it's very historic that you were 320 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: with Mr Dryden during the magic of the Cornell years. 321 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: Lucawa writing for Bloomberg. Should Canadians be rooting for a 322 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: lower oil price? This is Benny Charles wonderful work up 323 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: at c IBC. I mean, it's it's very counterintuitive. Is 324 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: does Canada benefit with lower oil prices? Canada really wants 325 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: lower oil prices. One the Canadians, like the United States, 326 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: can bring their costs down and so they can be competitive. 327 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: I mean, the great thing about the Canadian economy the 328 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: US economy is where market oriented. Again Mr Hass was 329 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: talking about this. It's uh, you know, the Venezuelans suffered 330 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: dramatically because of what's happened since nine uh to shoves. 331 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: But Canada can be very competitive with lower oil prices. 332 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: And the thing is the Canadian economy. The population of 333 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: Canada is in Ontario and Quebec in British Columbia, and 334 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: they need the lower oil prices for their economy to 335 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: be competitive, and they need to readjust they can do 336 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: it and they will do it. And the Canadians are 337 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: very resourceful. But if they're among the highest cost producers, 338 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: what level of oil prices can they get down to? 339 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: I think probably they can get down to sixty or 340 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: fifty five. They just again this comes back to irrational exuberance. 341 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: You look at all the money that was poured into 342 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 1: the oil exploration. The Canadians were, uh, we're building taj 343 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: Mahals in Calgary is a huge building that in Canna 344 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: built while I was teaching up there. Uh, it was 345 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: you know, they they thought prices had no place to 346 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: go but up. And this is the classic example. And 347 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: and oil, I mean, and if you go back, this 348 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: is the third example of this. I mean, it was 349 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: fiber optics in around two thousand, it was housing in 350 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: two thousand five to two thousand nine, it was oil 351 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: from two thousand nine, uh to today. It's you have 352 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: to think about doing things at reasonable costs and get 353 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: your costs down. And the US is doing a pretty 354 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: good job. The Saudis are doing a pretty good job 355 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: of that. Still, thank you so much, silverly your peak 356 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: on a wide set of topics, Mike, what really is 357 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: important is Luke how on his great article I just 358 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: put it on Twitter.

It wasn't shot. 367 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: Do you agree it wasn't shot and it it went 368 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: between his legs into the goal. As somebody said that 369 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: that video clip will live on for decades. It will, 370 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: which you know, never say never when you anyways, it's 371 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: it's a hockey moment, folks, and we're we're loving it 372 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: on a Monday morning.
