00:00All of the greatest of all time have gone through this.
00:03I mean, I remember when Wayne Gretzky was retiring and, you know,
00:07there was parts of the year and I knew Wayne well enough that he would say,
00:10I just, you know, some days I just don't have it.
00:12I just don't have the legs.
00:13I don't have the power to keep up with the play.
00:15And you know it as a great player.
00:17I mean, let's face it, these guys see the game different than anybody else.
00:20So, I mean, I would have to think for OV, he's probably, you know,
00:25probably needing to get a few more minutes, you know,
00:29and handling the puck and getting on the ice for a little bit longer sequences
00:33at a time.
00:34But I guess the bottom line is when you're trying to establish something
00:38with new players like Tuck, so like Kairou, like Boone Jenner,
00:43I mean, it's also important to be a great team player, which he is.
00:46And so, you know, it's so early in the season that, yeah, can he be better?
00:50There's no doubt about that.
00:52You know, can he get his feet moving?
00:54For sure.
00:55But I think the big thing with these players is getting touches with the puck.
