Well, we decided to do a post-game podcast, JJ Regan, after the Columbus game.

And I think we all thought, well, this would be a good one because they'll probably score

four or five goals against a team that's bad and missing most of its best players.

And then the game started.

And wow, was that a dud?

It was a total dud.

It was a little bit unexpected because you expected them to rebound from literally one week ago when they got handled by the exact same team.

So we could focus a lot of our attention on that game.

That was way more fun. Probably a better use of our time. Yeah, guys. That was a mess tonight.

And it is a little bit, you want to think about that. Like, it's cool to beat Boston and Tampa,

and they play both those teams coming up again here. They play Tampa on Saturday, play Boston

teams that are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. So just something to think about going

into this road game coming up on Friday against the Devils. A couple of times against Columbus,
