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 Filippovich and joining me once again for our weekly hangout video session. It's my good buddy, Daryl, Belfry, Daryl. What's going on, man?

Now much excited to get going again, getting these back on the calendar. It's, I was looking forward to this one all week.

Yeah, this will be a fun one. This is one I am particularly, and before we've been anticipating

it for a few weeks now, especially with how well the Winnipeg Jets have been playing. And this

top line in particular has been their offensive engine behind that inspired play. And now, Mark

Sheffley got banged up recently and he's been out,

but that's okay because our focus of today's show was already going to be the combination

of Nikolai Eelers and Gabriel Volardi. And Daryl, in watching them play, it's really entertaining

because I can't think of a more oddball pair than the two of them, right? One guy is sort of this big, lumbering,

awkward skater who's much more of a traditional power forward and kind of more methodically

moves his weight down the ice and does a lot of his work in small areas, both around and

edit on the boards. And then in Nikola Eilers, you have one of the most dynamic skaters in the league

who just effortlessly glides up and down the ice. And so it's really been interesting watching

the two of them since they got put together after Kyle Conner's injury around the start of

December, just watching them interact with each other on ice, watching them put together these sequences

where they're building each other up and stacking plays together towards scoring chances.

And it's really been poetic, right?

It's been poetry watching them on ice together.

And so I think it's going to be really fun today to dive into what makes them so special.
