next man up

It’s uh you know, you can have guys go down and and still have success because there there’s there’s not one player that you rely on. There’s a group game, a team game that um that’s in place that allows you to to have success. It doesn’t matter who’s in or out. Uh and and you see that um with really good teams are able to find a way to win when when guys go down. You know, obviously it’s unfortunate that we lost um you know, our best player and our best our best leader, but again, that just creates opportunity for someone else to be big. Um someone else to fill into a a hole that maybe they didn’t think they were needed for a while because Barky was there. Uh but it gives an opportunity for other guys to step up and and have a voice and and lead in different ways. And um incredible things can happen in moments like that. you know, guys can shine in uh a way that maybe, you know, people didn’t think was possible. Um, and they just needed that opportunity. So, you know, there’s a lot of a lot of talk about this being a bad situation, and it is, but a lot of good can come from a bad situation, and and a lot of really good opportunity, and and that’s what we expect from guys in our room is to step up and and be big in big moments.

  4. Well said, Marchy. Adversity creates growth, and this will give other players a chance to grow in time for the playoffs. It will surely show the well-known depth of this team and allow that depth to expand. Hopefully, Barky will have a speedy recovery and come back soon.

  16. Barkov, if anyone, will return sooner than statistical average. MINI Barkov, Lundell gets to show the world the ogre he is.
    Lets go Panthers. let this be fuel
