Hey Jeff and Elliott, it's Jonas Brody and with the Minnesota Wild. I love the backwards skating skills challenge I day I just want to say thank you for your listeners for reminding you that my skating skills are pretty good, especially backwards. Happy to show you one day. Now let's start the podcast.

I'm telling you man, the idea is catching on. I know they're not going to do it, but the idea is catching on Elliott. Hey, if enough people want it, like I said, there were a lot of people who reached out to me who said that that idea is not bad. They don't want to watch a lap.

But there's got to be something there that they can do to make it interesting.

You know, I had Aaron Ward on the radio show today and asked him that question. He said, well, I don't know about today, but back in my day, fastest backwards skater, you want to take guess?

Okay, I'm trying to think of who he played for.

He overlapped with this player briefly in Detroit is your clue. Steve D'Shan.

No, I think Kings, when I think Steve D'Shan, we got to play that game one day. Who is Jersey, do you think of when you say a player's name?

I'm trying to think Yuri Slager. Nope. Was it someone who was in Detroit for a long time or quickly while Ward was there?

Ward was briefly with him.

Chalios? Nope.

All right, you got me. Who is it?

Paul Koffee.

Oh my God, I can't believe I didn't even think about that.

Paul Koffee. That's terrible.

But I think it's legitimate curiosity. But the thing is, here's the thing about this question.

I should be banished from an episode of the podcast for not guessing Paul Koffee.

Please. It's embarrassing.

I think that it's a question that people don't realize they're curious about until you mentioned it.

If that makes any sense.

Like I've thought about this for a long time.

I don't know how many other people have, but once you mentioned it to them, they start thinking about it.

Okay, we are spending way too much time talking about backwards skater.
