But it's one of the reasons why I don't think,
00:03
and we've talked about this,
00:04
that, listen, hockey players are different than NBA players.
00:08
Like, hockey players don't really title chase.
00:11
They might not, you know, be happy with a team
00:13
that they play on and stuff.
00:14
They might wanna go to a better team, right,
00:16
when their contract is up, but it's not the NBA.
00:19
Hockey players just aren't calling their shots like this.
00:23
And there's a different sense of loyalty, right?
00:26
And, you know, I think what Crosby, put it this way,
00:29
Crosby didn't have this Team Canada stuff
00:31
to look forward to.
00:33
I think maybe he wouldn't wanna play
00:34
for the Pittsburgh Penguins only for the rest of his group.
00:37
But this stuff matters, and the Olympics matter next year.
00:41
And it's amazing.
00:42
Like, Crosby set up McKinnon on the first goal.
00:45
Crosby just set up, it was all Crosby's work on,
00:48
who Stone just scored for them.
00:51
It's been Team Nova Scotia for the most part.
00:54
Brad Marchant scored a goal for Team Canada as well.
00:58
So it's 3-1, in-game totals, 6 1⁄2.
01:01
We like the under a lot in this game.
