Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey PEDEOCast with your host, Dmitri Filipovich.

Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast. My name is Dmitra Filipovich and joining me as my good buddy, Ryan Lambert, R.L. What's going on, man?

I'm chilling. Going to see Macklin-Colabrini in Boston University against North Dakota tonight. It's going to be a good one.

That's very exciting. Well, we'll talk more about Celebrini here in a second with one of our questions. Today, the plan is to answer your mailbag questions from the listeners. We solicited them on Twitter. Got a lot of good ones. The listeners always come through with these, but it feels like they really stepped up this time. I think we got at least like 20 or 30 that I think in any typical mailbag session would qualify as good ones.

So we'll see how many of them we can get through and have some fun with it.

Okay, here's the first one.

Your pal Dan asks,

curious where your outlook is on Quentin Byfield, tantalizing player, and I can't figure out why some in the industry are down on him.

Well, I can figure out why some in the industry are down on him? Well, I can figure out why some in the industry are down on him.

He scored the 10th goal of his career last week, I think.

And, you know, he's played like 100 plus games in the NHL.

That's why people are down on it.

And also, I would say, uh, because they went out and got Pierre

Luke Dubois to like kind of gum up the center depth works for him.

So it made people probably feel like they don't have a lot of confidence that this guy

can, you know, take that next step and we need

to go out and get some extra insurance.

That would be my guess.

Mm-hmm.

People really just want immediate gratification, right?

No one wants to wait.

Yeah.
