0:00.0	Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey P.D.O.cast with your host, Dmitri Filipovich.
0:19.2	Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast. My name's Dmitra Filipovich. And joining me is my good buddy, Harmon, Dial. Haram, what's going on in?
0:26.8	Doing well. I'm excited for the offseason fireworks that are about to go off.
0:31.4	Yeah, you're probably more prep than I am. You've been in the past couple weeks grinding away at the athletic, doing a lot of a lot of prep in terms of what
0:38.4	to look forward to with all the player movement and getting everything ready, especially from a Canucks
0:42.5	off season perspective. I've been so tunnel vision for the Stanley Cup final and really just living
0:48.3	and breathing and eating that up for the past couple weeks. So it's a bit of an adjustment for me,

0:57.4	I just have no idea what to do with all this newfound free time, especially in the

1:31.4	what to look forward to there.
1:33.4	On the Stanley Cup final note, I wanted to quickly touch on the Con Smyth and the voting for it because
1:38.0	when Drans and I did our post game on Tuesday, we didn't have the details for it.
1:41.4	All we knew was that Sam Bennett had won.
1:43.0	And it was certainly a very deserved victory. But I thought the voting and the distribution was interesting.
1:48.5	And I wanted to get into that a little bit here with you because there were 18 voters.
1:51.9	Each of them had Sam Bennett and Brad Marchand in their top two, 11 of them had Bennett first place.
