And like, I might like to try, and, like when you’re Vancouver, I could be considering I need to usher in Shane Wright because I need to see what he’s got. And I’m pleased to usher in a right-handed centerman, and I need him to work hand in hand with Manny Malhotra because there’s such a, you realize, there’s so many parallels between, you realize, the, the centerman who’s attempting to work out the league and Manny Malhotra. Who really found out the league on a whole lot of different levels and needed to morph his game, you realize, so many various times over the course of his profession.
But I’m like, you almost wish to take a flyer. You wish to put it right into a situation where you’re like, I’ll take a likelihood on Shane Wright, and giving up Tom Willander is way more than taking a likelihood. That’s making it a priority.”
