Kept kept your rule going of, you know, being within a six length of the, of the net to score a goal. I obviously you're just trying to get it on the floor up there with that, but the bounce just goes right in front pretty fortunate. Sometimes you get them. Sometimes you don't what goes through when you see that, like what's going on and I almost did. So it was a good bounce on our way there and, you know, sometimes in a couple of other games, we didn't want to get them. So that one was fortunate for us and um yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, we, we kind of gave it to him a little bit there. Um But, you know, I thought, you know, this what makes a good, uh a good team, a good team is, you know, how we come out and how we face a little adversity. Obviously, Fred has been keeping us in it for, you know, this whole entire series and things happen on the ice and I think he just fell and goes in, he tried to buckle in and try to do it for him. And I thought we were pretty good towards the end there and I thought, you know, once we got that lead again, we held it on. Are you guys still able to enjoy getting to the second round? I mean, you know, it's expected, but at the same time, it's still a big, you know, you guys set the expectations, you know what I mean? We know how good we are in general and we know how hard we work. And new media guys are the ones that you try to say all this stuff. And we have obviously a goal in mind that we want to accomplish. And we started in preseason and it's little victories all the way up until you have a chance to potentially lift, you know, lift the cup. And this is, this is step two. First season was the first step. This is the second step. We had a big challenge ahead of us with the range. We're all looking forward to it with great. Can't say enough good things about that kid. I almost wish he was my son at some point. He came to Chicago with us. He was so good down there. He was so crucial and us going to win and it's great to see him filling out his role. And uh yeah, you know, we need him to step up once a big face offs and, you know, he's really honing in on that craft. So, uh it's great to see him do good things and uh it's, it's nice to see him score so I know your goals usually come from that, but not like that. Yeah, it still in the blue paint so I'll take it. What was it like, just having almost like a 12th difference in the goals? Just like it was in game two, I guess. Yeah, it was just, you know, it was our first shift in a little bit. We were just trying to, you know, maintain that momentum and have a big shift and, um, you know, when that happens, you just try to keep it simple. And, you know, again, I just said earlier, it was a fortunate balance that went our way. You know, we're head where we are right now.
