You want to know why I'm naming teams
and fantasy football this year, mouth charts.
That's a reference that you had to have been listening
for earlier today, mouth charts.
Yep.
Mouth charts.
You get to see it's a chart.
In your mouth.
It's a mouth chart.
There's really no good way to explain it.
That's really worth it.
Now without like another 40 sentences or so
on the whole subject, which is not really warranted.
I'm not willing.
No, I don't want to do it again.
I did love it though.
Mouth charts.
I do wonder what you think about the Sabers lineup.
If everybody's available, I mean, Shen,
I don't think we need to debate.
But Greenway or Timmins, who we think is going in.
Yeah.
For Metsa, maybe just to see.
I think that is what's happening tonight.
Yes.
Timmins has missed almost the entire year with leg injury.
And but he's healthy.
He's been skating for quite a while now with them.
And I think they now know,
I think they've experimented to enough of an extent
with Metsa that I am very confident
in game one of the playoffs.
He's in the lineup.
And I think they've done a good job of using him
in some other places to see if, like,
say one of the top four guys gets hurt.
Can we just slide him in and pair him with Dalline
or with power or with Byron?
I don't know that he would take Dalline's spot,
but maybe in pair with Samson, I guess.
So I think they know what they've got there.
I think they trust that.
The way Lindy has talked about him,
like he's not being punished.
He's not in danger of losing his spot.
I think what tonight is, is it's a long haul, right?
We gotta be ready.
You know, if you get, if you make it in here
and start winning rounds, I mean,
you're playing into June.
So what do we have when anybody's got a missing game?
Who can move in with who and what then becomes
of the third pair?
I think Stanley is likely to be a staple,
but it's possible that they look at,
depending on the opponent.

I'm Brian, I work at UnitedHealthcare.
So Brian, why do you care?
I care because I don't want to leave anybody behinds.
I oversee one of the biggest resource center
in UnitedHealthcare.
I see people walked in in my office every day,
just like my parents.
They have no idea about the health care.
I feel like they're my uncles, aunties.
I treat it as people, my family.
I'm Brian, and I'm committed to care.
But what he looks like with Timmins,
or really anyone but Metsa,
and like, all right, we just gotta know
what other pairs can do here.
So let's Stanley and Timmins tonight.
So if Metsa has to play up higher in the lineup
because someone's hurt, can I, who's the guy?
I would expect that at some point,
maybe not as soon as Friday, but 11 games left,
that Michael Kustelring gets similar treatment
to Timmins, like let's try him out here with Stanley,
see if that can be our third pair.
Again, this is all predicated on my belief
that Metsa is the guy that goes up
if someone up top gets hurt.
So they're just trying to see what their best play is
with the third pair, if that happens.
I think if everyone's healthy, Metsa's playing there.
I think that's pretty easy.
I don't have to be right about that,
but that's my read, and I think it adds up.
Greenway is a whole different thing.
Like, I don't know, he's stylized.
He is a player, the type of player I would love
to have in my lineup at the playoffs
if he's at his full capacity, right?
So I think he'll get a look here soon.
He's gonna tell Paul, we're gonna hear an interview
with him in our pre-game,
even though he's not playing tonight,
that he feels better than he has felt in months.
Yeah.
There's new treatment that he found,
that they found whatever, it's been the same start
with him like three different times this year.
He's missed time, he's back.
It's a, you know, they're managing him,
blowed management, it's just nothing is taken.
And so, if he's indeed turned to corner,
I would wanna get a look at him on my fourth line,
and depending on who I'm playing
and what kind of game I expect,
I think it would be nice to have six, six, 240 pounds
on your fourth line.
I mean, could be.
In place of?
In place of crebs, probably, which is tough.
I mean, crebs has been such a spark plug guy
for them all year, but Karek ain't coming out.
Mail and Stein's not coming out, right?
Crebs, I know, is right now going into play tonight
on the top line with Thompson and Tuck.
I think at some point, that is gonna become Benson's spot.
You know, I just think, by the time the playoffs get here,
that's probably ideal for them,
that puts crebs down there,
and I think that might be a tough decision.
It really depends on what Greenway is capable of.
Can he get through, he's gone through these practices
and he's feeling great.
Can he play games?
Can he play off games?
And can he do that three times, four times in a week?
And still be the guy that you need him to be?
If he can, I think that might be the hardest decision to make.
I think the rest of the lineup,
I don't think I'm touching anything.
You know what I mean?
The McLeod would zucker and Quinn like that.
That line has been constant all through this.
That's the one line that never gets messed with.
You know, I think Norris line stays what it is.
I think, like I said, if Benson gets up
and plays the crebs and crebs comes down,
then I think your decision is Crebs vs. Greenway.
I doubt they would take Benson out for Greenway.
I just, I would hate it.
So, and I don't really like,
I don't really like the idea of taking anybody out
with the kind of year that they've had.
And like I said, Crebs has been,
you know, I'll bet there's people out there
and now they're hearing me going like,
no, I like because you start to crush on every guy on the team
for whatever it is he does.
And Crebs is kind of a, he's the crazy guy
that'll fight a guy that outweighs him
by a hundred pounds he doesn't care.
And I love guys like that on a hockey team.
I think they're important guys to have,
like some, like, a little bit loose shoeball guy, right?
Like, what is this guy?
This guy's gonna spear in the face, what's happening here?
But Greenway, the last time this team was in
any kind of a race, which is three years ago now
under Grenado when they missed by a point,
I felt like as the spring was going on,
I just noticed Greenway, you know,
when you're into the game at the level,
we're all getting into it now,
we're already into it now,
you notice every little thing,
like what side, you know,
is this guy on the defensive side of the offensive side
as he's going to the wall to try to challenge the guy who has the puck.
And I just thought Greenway was excellent
at all of that sort of stuff.
He's another good penalty killer.
And a big body, I'd be really tempted
to get him in the lineup.
He's the one guy I think that I would look at.
Hypothetically, what if Coolique is ready?
Unless something happens to Norris, I don't, I don't,
I can't do it.
I don't think so.
If they can't score, and he's cleared.
Have they not said he's not going to be clueless?
Kekalainen said at the deadline,
he didn't think it was likely that he would make it back.
All right, so it's probably not happening.
But it could, if he could, if he found out that he was available,
you'd have to be tempted, depending on if they're losing,
I just don't know what he has, he's been skating.
I just don't know what I'd be getting.
Okay, with that much time out, boy, that would be tough.
It would have to be a very, I mean, obviously,
he'd have to be cleared, which might be a long shot.
But if it were to happen, boy,
I'd have to really be in tough scoring.
Or like I said, someone has to happen.
Has someone have to happen to Norris,
which also could happen.
Yep, we'll be back at Roswell Park here for more.

I care because I don't want to leave anybody behind.

They have no idea about the healthcare.
I feel like they have my uncles, aunties.
