Semi-final banger for the ages, my good buddy, Thomas Trans, Tom. What's going on, man?

0:34.2

I'm still recovering, to be totally honest with you. That game was heart wrenching. I was not having

0:40.2

fun at all, but also having simultaneously the best time ever. An amazing night of hockey.

0:46.8

You know, night of hockey, it's still early morning, but it feels like it's been a full day. And the game

was played at night. It was, yeah. And you know what? You know that meme of John Tavares when he's sitting on the bench? And the puck is flying towards the bench. And like everyone around him is like moving out of the way frantically. And he's just kind of like deadpanning sitting there.
