And I think the major thing that you see with, you know, and I deal primarily with Jeff.
Obviously, I've gotten to know David just at the press conference and Greg a little bit more.
You know, he's got... four sons that he's deeply entrenched in minor hockey and he's very interested about the game itself and how that influences our decisions and it's been fun to kind of go through that throughout the summer and through the fall and training camp here so for me it's a very different ownership group than Then the types that I've dealt with previously, what's been in Toronto or with Fenway, it takes me a little bit more back to my time in junior in the Sioux where it was much more family-oriented per se, even though I think Fenway had that feel internally.
Mm-hmm.
But I think you see the deep meaning to them as a family, the deep meaning of hockey to the Hoffmans as a family.
And we have seen Jeff in the building during training camp here over the last couple of weeks.
Obviously, the one big bit of news that came with them taking over the Penguins is that the Florida Everblades will be the ECHL affiliate, the willing nailers, now with the Columbus Blue Jackets entering this year.
But I wanted to ask you about this camp, Kyle, because there was a lot of wonder coming into it in the sense that It's faster in the timeframe of it.
Obviously, we know what injuries came out of it from your team, but what'd you take from it overall?
You know, it didn't really afford us a chance to get the types of games we wanted for our younger players, goaltenders.
I see some teams are doing more, you know, travel and camaraderie building things.
And I know Buffalo was leaving to do that after our game against them on Saturday.
