00:00but you know we're going into a pretty tough atmosphere as well so it's you know
00:03it's a little bit of an uphill battle but we've been here before we played in
00:06some tough rinks and we've had some tough opponents as well and we've
00:10managed to claw our way through we have a pretty resilient group and I think
00:13we've showed that over the course of the season the quarter group has showed that
00:17over the last two years I think so yeah I mean it's it's it's we go back to the
00:21drawing board a little bit watch the video and you know we kind of reset for
00:26played a lot of good teams in this competition obviously got the better of
00:30most of them so a lot of people surprised but no no doubt not your
00:34surprise where do they rank teams that you've come up against this season yeah
00:38I think they're they're up different different style game right more
00:42physical yeah a little bit more a little bit more North American ice game they
00:45got they got whatever it is nine or ten North Americans right so I think they
00:50kind of play a little bit different style than the Czechs and then the
00:53Czechs play different than Swedes so we've gotten to see quite a few different
00:57styles even the Swiss Swiss style is fast and they play as well Czechs play
01:02physical so it's a little bit of mix of everything but yeah I mean to say that
01:08they're not anything special would be you know not doing the justice I feel
01:12like they've got a great team over there and there's no question they're in the
01:16lead in the bell right now for a reason they're they're a hard team they play
01:22hard they got four lines that crash and bang and they hunt pucks and they stay
01:26above you and they make you work for everything so that's what kind of good
01:30teams do and we we knew that was gonna was gonna be the outcome tonight I think
01:35given those experiences against all these different teams as a player is
01:39that something you love yeah I mean you want to play in the big games the big
01:43moments when the spotlights on you right so I think for a lot of guys in the room
01:48I think this is kind of why a lot of guys decided that they wanted to come
01:51back from the core group and yeah it's a good test for us obviously we've kind
01:56of we've kind of put ourselves in this position we've earned it we've played
02:00good hockey up until this point and yeah I think it's it's kind of important to
02:04remember that as we're going into the next leg
