We get to your scuba calls momentarily, but this one's for Kenny.

0:03.4

I'm staying out of it because, well, whatever Steve decides is good enough for me.

0:08.8

Artemi Panarin, more affectionately known as the breadman, has been traded to Los Angeles Kings.

0:17.0

Kenny, your thoughts?

0:18.0

Level of disappointment, if any, 60 seconds or less.

0:22.0

Yeah, I wish the wings would have made a move like this.
