Hey, guys, welcome to double shot of Pegwoods. I'm Dan Kovachovich of DK. Pittsburgh Sports,

joined from Wilkesbury, Pennsylvania by Taylor Hoss, our beat reporter, who's on hands to cover

game one of the Calder Cup semifinal between Wilkesbury, Scranton, and Toronto, and

Taylor, fill us in here. What's the atmosphere like there? How are the, how are the athletes?

Are they wound up? Does it feel to them like a really, really big deal? You know what I'm saying?

And you'll recall, Kyle Dubas was not happy at all with Wilkesbury Scranton anything

and how the playoffs have gone in the past.

He expects to see not just performance, not just wins, because, anything and how the playoffs have gone in the past.

He expects to see not just performance, not just wins, but he wants to see more of this team in the playoffs so that they can

further evaluate these guys so that they can get more experience.

And that how much of a, I mean, how much pressure is there,
