All right, what did you think, Daniel, of Ty's performance? I mean, the nine penalty minutes, obviously the fight was what got everybody's attention, but just to be able to see him make his NHL debut.

I mean, it was amazing.

You see various paths to making that NHL debut.

Sometimes you have an 18-year-old stepping right onto the ice and getting into it.

Other times, guys play 200, 300 games in the American Hockey League, or in Ty's case, just over 200 before getting that opportunity.

And...

There's not a whole lot that's flashy about Ty's game.

What is it that stood out to you in that 3-0 win against the Chicago Wolves?

Mm-hmm.

But of course, last season was what it was.

A- and, and I think talking to a lot of the players, they talked about, the, the guys who had been here the previous season talked about needing to make adjustments, whether it was with themselves or with the team, a- and those adjustments were made.

We saw some new veterans come in, a- and kind of new leadership for, for that hockey group and, and that team on the ice.

And of course, some of the younger players were a year older.

The goaltenders were a year older.

A- and I think we saw the progression there from Dominik Diventis and Thomas Milic.

When you look back at the, uh, at the playoffs, um, maybe starting with Dom D'Aventantis, who was just lights out, um, who maybe helped themselves the most in the organization overall with their performances through the seven games?

How do the Manitoba Moose mitigate the impact of the loss of these two k- key contributors?

Yeah, it's, y- you know, first off, frustrating for, for Elias, uh, obviously, came back off of the, the, the concussion there suffered with the Jets, and then just some terrible luck late in that game against Milwaukee on what would've been probably his second, third final shift of the game, happened with just a few minutes left.

So, uh, that is certainly frustrating for, for Sal Monson and the Moose, and, uh, he'll of course have to work his way back over the off-season.

Hopefully he's able to get back for training camp.

And I, I think likewise for Chibrikov.

Of course, he's had some injury trouble over the last little bit as well, and doesn't get to participate in the post-season, where you figure a guy that's a gamer like him would fare pretty well, uh, in the post-season.

I think the Moose can absorb the loss of Chibrikov a little more easily than they can Sal Monson.

Mm-hmm.
