I know he appreciates you guys a ton. And he loves coming to the rink. He loves being a Blue, and I'm just so excited and happy to be here and awful proud of them. Awful proud of all you guys. Awful proud of the two of them. He is my favorite Blue, though. It's a tie for the top player, though between, him and his bro.
