I'll stay with you, Zach, on some players
0:01
to watch in this series. Now, yeah, we've got the stars and we've talked about them in the first round
0:06
but coming off that first round, the guys that did shine in that series
0:11
who do you expect to be that for the Hurricanes in this one
0:17
Obviously, they're gonna be keying on the big guys, but both teams have their stars
0:22
I don't know if they're gonna be just trying to shut down because they both can go against each other pretty well
0:27
Yeah, I would definitely say for sure, I mean, surprisingly enough, like Sebastian Aja only got like three points
0:32
in that series against the Islanders. See, like Seth Jarvis led the team in points
0:37
in the first round. He got seven points in five games. So yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they tee on him
0:43
You know, Andrew Sveshnikov got five points as well, I guess, appreciated too. Evgeny Kuznetsov, sneaky good in round one
0:50
two goals and two assists. Of course, we all saw the penalty shot goal
0:55
which was just absolutely just nasty. Of course, you know, I think it was what
0:59
12.36 seconds between whistle and goal. That's how long it took for him to score that one
1:04
But I would say if you're like, not the big names that you kinda wanna focus on
1:11
I would say watch out for Jack Drury. He did score his first ever playoff goal in game five
1:16
It was a huge one, which was the game winner. Steph Nason, three goals, one of them was a power play goal
1:22
but all of his goals are net front. And that's just what he is. He's Mr. Net Front
1:27
And surprisingly for the fact that he's a guy who's in the bottom six, but he plays in the power play a lot
1:32
just because he brings that extra grit and he gets in the greasy areas
1:36
and scores those type of goals. So I say Jack Drury's one, Steph Nason's another one
1:41
And like I said, Evgeny Kuznetsov, like he's been playing really well for the Kings
1:45
He's really came out strong in the first series. And I wouldn't be surprised if he, you know
1:50
continues that run and, you know, builds off that for round two
1:55
So if we're not talking the big boys, I would say those three are definitely ones
1:59
to keep an eye on for sure
