| 0:00.0 | Dominance is dominance, no matter what team you're playing. |
| 0:03.6 | Aves win over the Chicago Blackhawks 4 to 1. |
| 0:06.6 | Look, are the Chicago Blackhawks bad? |
| 0:08.5 | Yes. |
| 0:09.5 | Were they on a Sega Baba? |
| 0:10.9 | Also yes. |
| 0:11.7 | Does that make the abs dominating them a much easier proposition? |
| 0:15.6 | It does, for sure. |
| 0:17.1 | That does matter. |
| 0:18.4 | But also, what do you want the abs to do? Not dominate. I always say you can only |
| 0:24.2 | play the game that you're in, and I don't think the abs could have played this game any better. |
| 0:28.4 | It wasn't perfect, but they completely controlled almost every aspect of the game. You had maybe one or |

| 0:52.9 | At 5-on-5 alone, the abs generated 18 high-danger |
| 0:56.5 | chances. And at 5-on-5, you generate over four expected goals 4. That is a crazy good hockey game. |
| 1:03.7 | Despite it may be taking longer than you would have liked, the dominance even converts in the |
| 1:07.6 | first period. Usually a good thing when you see a team out shooting a team 14 to 3, but also McKinnon go zoom up the ice. He gets the blue line, does his normal pull-off stuff. It's a good job by Vow to get into this play as the third man in, beating his man up the ice. And then when he gets this puck in the middle, he stays in the middle. He uses the space and frankly forces the space, just goes |
| 1:29.1 | through Chicago to get to the slot area. Now, I didn't love this pass when it happened, but |
