I'm Ryan Lambert from Elite Prospects.

I'm Sean McAnneux from The Athletic.

And, you know, I think we said it last week.

Once you get past the trade deadline, the news isn't as, isn't as like fertile ground as it was prior to, except that it keeps happening.

That's completely wrong because you have heated exchanges between the commissioner of the league and GMs.

You have people mad about goal interference and suspensions and lack of protection for players and gold enter interference and coaches maybe getting fired and all this kind of stuff.

And so, Sean, I put it to you. which of those many topics do you want to talk about first?

Oh, this is, this is exciting.

Let's whichever one you want.

You know what?

I'm, I'm looking at an outline that somebody put together for the show.

Could have been anybody.

And I'm going to say, let's start with the GM meetings fallout.

Okay.

And under that, again, there were like four things we could talk about.

But let's start with the goaltender interference.

That seems to be a hot topic.

And insofar as NHL teams are really mad about it and more than one.

And anytime I see goaltender interference come up, I say nobody understands, somehow

nobody understands goaltender interference better than my friend Sean.

That was a brilliant fake out because you, I thought you were saying the thing that gets me mad, and you weren't.

It drives me nuts when people in the media say nobody understands.
