Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin talks about the challenge of facing a 3-0 deficit against the Florida Panthers in the Eastern Conference Final.
There's been a couple of instances this year where you guys have been in a, a little bit of a tough stretch. I mean, the end of March was the most recent where you lost three games in a row and then you guys came back and won a couple in a row. So is there any doubt in your guys' mind that something can be pulled off? There was no beating around the bush there. But, um, we got a lot of belief in our locker room and we just got, we just got a breakthrough. Here we go. Did you hear my answer? You guys didn't get it back there? No, all I said was we got a lot of belief in our locker room. I mean, it's, it's gonna be a lot of work but it's work. We're, we're looking forward to here. We go on the right side there. Rod keeps talking about how he's happy with how you guys are playing that. You know, you're doing all the right things. There's not much to criticize is that more frustrating as a player than just going out there and getting whipped some nights. Um Yeah, I mean. Yes and no, I mean, yes. And the fact that you're, you're doing things the right way, but you're not getting the results and then know, and the fact that, like, you can go home after the game and know that you put forth your best effort. I mean, and, and guys are working hard in there and we're playing the way that we, we play and so we just got to find the back of the net back. Right. Jacob, obviously, there's the frustration immediately following the game and we saw some of that on TV, with the guys in the locker room. But how does it change after you sleep on it and you've processed it? Kind of where does everybody feel like they're at now compared to last night? Yeah, I mean, what's been done is done and so where reality is, we got to win four in a row. And so we're focusing on tomorrow night and taking that one game at a time and, and, and just continuing to go out there and put out our best effort, uh, and, and trying to break through here. Front left Jacob in 2019. You guys were in the Eastern conference finals, obviously the same situation, but you're a younger team then that really, really hadn't experienced this. How are things different this time? You know, maybe personally, um in how you approach this kind of situation, having been through a lot of playoff battles Yeah, I think it's, it's a different feeling. Right. And back in 2019, I think, I think they were, they were probably the better team and they were beating us and because they were the better team. But right now, I mean, it's been three super tight games, two overtime games, one another, one goal game last night. And so, um, we're playing good hockey. Um, and it's, it's just been unfortunate so far. But, uh, so I think the, the feeling of it's different. We're not, we're not out of it. We just got to continue to battle and take it one game at a time. There are no more questions. Thank you for your time. Jacob.
