0:20
Speaker 3: The Seattle Cracking have undergone their fair share of change
0:23
Speaker 3: and transition over the last few seasons, and yesterday another
0:27
Speaker 3: move that will affect the future of the club was
0:29
Speaker 3: made as it was announced that President of Hockey Operations
0:32
Speaker 3: and the inaugural general manager of the Krack in Ron Francis, has.
0:35
Speaker 4: Stepped down from his position.
0:38
Speaker 1: Tonight, with five games left in the regular season and
0:40
Speaker 1: after eight of their last ten on the road, of
0:42
Speaker 1: the Krack and return home for the first of their
0:44
Speaker 1: final three games under our roof, trying to put all
0:47
Speaker 1: of the distractions behind them against Vegas Golden Knights, team
0:51
Speaker 1: that has won four straight after a rare late season
0:54
Speaker 1: coaching change, but have also lost both beatings to the
0:57
Speaker 1: Crack in this season. Good evening Ladies and gentlemen come
1:00
Speaker 1: inside of Climate Pledge Arena alongside Al Kadisky I'm everat FITZIYO.
1:04
Speaker 1: This is Seattle Kragging Hockey on the Global Credit Union
1:07
Speaker 1: and Cracking Audio Network. You are listening to the pregame
1:09
Speaker 1: show served up by Frost Food course Late Choose Chill.
1:12
Speaker 4: Alan has been a very eventful last twenty four hours.
1:16
Speaker 1: We had a feeling that this summer, this offseason was
1:19
Speaker 1: going to bring some change to the organization, and earlier
1:23
Speaker 1: yesterday afternon around four o'clock, we got the news that
1:25
Speaker 1: Ron Francis, the President of Hockey Operations, has decided so
1:29
Speaker 1: mutually part ways with the organization and stepped out.
1:32
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is this was some surprising news, but hopefully
1:36
Speaker 5: it's a sign of this aggressiveness that we've been hearing.
1:39
Speaker 4: About this team.
1:40
Speaker 5: You know, they're not going to make the playoffs again
1:42
Speaker 5: for three years straight and somebody has to take the
1:45
Speaker 5: fall for that, and I think right now it's going
1:47
Speaker 5: to be Ron Francis.
1:48
Speaker 1: When you look at the work that Ron Francis has done,
1:50
Speaker 1: he's been here since twenty nineteen. His fingerprints are on
1:53
Speaker 1: every piece of this organization. Literally, he helped design CACI,
1:57
Speaker 1: he helped design the uniforms, he helped to design the building.
2:01
Speaker 1: When you have a Hall of famer, a Hockey Hall
2:03
Speaker 1: of Famer leading your organization. It automatically adds legitimacy to
2:08
Speaker 1: the project that you're undertaking. And while the results obviously
2:11
Speaker 1: were not there in a way that he would.
2:13
Speaker 4: Have liked, it's still going to feel it's still going to.
2:17
Speaker 1: Be hard to fill a void like that with Ron
2:19
Speaker 1: now gone.
2:20
Speaker 4: Yeah, it absolutely is.
2:20
Speaker 5: And the thing that you know he leaves here carrion
2:23
Speaker 5: that no one can ever take away from him is
2:25
Speaker 5: he will always be the first general manager of this
2:28
Speaker 5: new franchise. You know, when you draft players, it's about potential.
2:32
Speaker 5: When you're in the off season and you're looking at
2:34
Speaker 5: free agency, it's about making a deal. Same thing with
2:36
Speaker 5: the trade deadline. It's about making a deal. It takes
2:38
Speaker 5: more than one person to do that. And I know
2:40
Speaker 5: that he's had a large, large part in each of
2:43
Speaker 5: those parts every single year.
2:45
Speaker 4: Trying to do his best to make this team better.
2:47
Speaker 1: Anytime there is a coaching change or a managerial change,
2:50
Speaker 1: there is always some type of ownership that has taken
2:53
Speaker 1: on the players, by the players, by the staff, and
2:55
Speaker 1: today was no different. There was a very reflective mood
2:59
Speaker 1: this morning, and the word that was thrown around a
3:01
Speaker 1: lot was responsible responsibility and there are a lot of
3:05
Speaker 1: players in lane lambergnho here from him coming up a
3:08
Speaker 1: bit later on as well, saying that you know, at
3:10
Speaker 1: the end of the day, as the players, as the
3:12
Speaker 1: coaches of this team, we take some responsibility in this
3:16
Speaker 1: for Ron Francis now being gone as well well.
3:19
Speaker 5: Absolutely, because for the reasons I just said, the general
3:21
Speaker 5: manager has a large influence over which players end up
3:24
Speaker 5: on the roster, and when those players you know, aren't
3:27
Speaker 5: performing for whatever reason and not getting to the goals
3:30
Speaker 5: they set out to get at the start of the season,
3:34
Speaker 5: they have to take some responsibile for Billy for it.
3:36
Speaker 4: So I'm actually glad to hear that We're gonna have
3:38
Speaker 4: a lot more from.
3:39
Speaker 1: Todd Lewicki Crack and CEO Todd Lewicky coming up in
3:42
Speaker 1: the first intermission, Mike Benton and Todd one on one
3:44
Speaker 1: And with all of that going on today, Partner, the
3:48
Speaker 1: Crackets still have a hockey game to play against the
3:50
Speaker 1: Vigias Golden Knights. John Toonorella came in four games ago.
3:54
Speaker 1: They are a perfect four oh and oh and the
3:56
Speaker 1: Golden Knights right now sitting in second place, here in
3:59
Speaker 1: the Pacific Vision. They are tied I guess two points
4:02
Speaker 1: now back of the Edmonton Oilers, one point.
4:04
Speaker 4: Up on the Anaheim Ducks.
4:05
Speaker 1: A big game for them, cracking and beating them twice
4:07
Speaker 1: this season, and for Seattle with five games left in
4:11
Speaker 1: the regular season, you need to make a statement, and
4:13
Speaker 1: tonight is as good of a night as any to
4:15
Speaker 1: make a statement.
4:16
Speaker 5: Yeah, they beat the Vancouver Canucks Tuesday night. That was
4:18
Speaker 5: their fourth win. It was two to one in that game.
4:20
Speaker 5: The outcome, and you know, this is a team that
4:22
Speaker 5: scores in waves, and the waves get bigger as the
4:24
Speaker 5: game goes on. So yes, you want to win the
4:26
Speaker 5: first period, but you cannot let off the gas because
4:29
Speaker 5: this night's team scores more in the second and more
4:31
Speaker 5: in the third. So it's gonna have to be a
4:33
Speaker 5: complete sixty minute game for the Cracking tonight.
4:35
Speaker 1: Three home games left for the Seattle Krack, and they'll
4:37
Speaker 1: begin tonight against Vegas. Mike Benson's got more from the

8:09
Speaker 10: of eighty eight. Well zebyritt now mentioned news developing back
8:14
Speaker 10: to twenty four hours ago. The Kraken and Ron Francis
8:16
Speaker 10: are party ways. He will step down from the organization
8:19
Speaker 10: at the end of the season as president of Hockey Operations.
8:23
Speaker 10: It's certainly a heavy moment, especially for a figure who
8:26
Speaker 10: reached the Hall of Fame as a player, and they
8:28
Speaker 10: had the groundwork literally since twenty nineteen. Here on the
8:32
Speaker 10: Kraken side, you're the CEO todd leiitwikie of the Kraken
8:35
Speaker 10: for this thoughts from earlier this morning. First off on
8:38
Speaker 10: Ron Francis and the Kraken right from the start.
8:42
Speaker 11: He took this on and his fingerprints will forever be
8:45
Speaker 11: on this organization. Black room I was just in. He designed,
8:50
Speaker 11: He led the design of our training center. He helped
8:55
Speaker 11: build our brand. I'll never forget him saying, hey keep it, Lassie,
9:00
Speaker 11: and we did. He helped design our jerseys. He stood
9:04
Speaker 11: up Coachella Valley, something we don't talk as much about
9:08
Speaker 11: as we should, but that was a whole other team
9:10
Speaker 11: that had to be launched, and he did all that
9:14
Speaker 11: in a challenging time and in the midst of a
9:16
Speaker 11: global pandemic. We I Victor rob but especially our ownership
9:24
Speaker 11: are forever grateful. He was our founding GM and he
9:29
Speaker 11: will always be held in the highest esteem.
9:34
Speaker 4: Wwicki said.
9:35
Speaker 10: An audit will be underway with Jason Botterol leading the
9:38
Speaker 10: charts this offseason to examine the organization and his course
9:41
Speaker 10: to a greater path of success and Lightwickie had more
9:44
Speaker 10: beginning with the previous stop of his in the NHL,
9:46
Speaker 10: thence reached the pinnacle today.
9:49
Speaker 11: I think an analogy for me in my career might
9:51
Speaker 11: be what happened in Tampa, where we got there and
9:54
Speaker 11: there was certainly a capable roster and we actually made
9:58
Speaker 11: it our first year all the way to the conference finals,
10:04
Speaker 11: but there were some pieces, believe it or not, missing,
10:07
Speaker 11: and when we did a full and complete audit, we
10:10
Speaker 11: knew we had to take a bit of a step back.
10:12
Speaker 11: I'm sure I don't know that that's the case with
10:14
Speaker 11: this team, but we're going to pause at the end
10:18
Speaker 11: of the season and think broadly about where we are,
10:21
Speaker 11: what we have, and how we move forward, and we're
10:23
Speaker 11: going to get better. These are hard decisions. That was
10:27
Speaker 11: a hard day, and you don't go through it not
10:29
Speaker 11: to get better, and we are going to get better.
10:33
Speaker 11: I'm not only telling you that that's a directive I
10:35
Speaker 11: got from my boss. We are going to get better.
10:42
Speaker 12: And Todd, you alluded to Jason's going to be sharing
10:45
Speaker 12: his plans for the future and he'll be leading an
10:49
Speaker 12: audit of hockey operations. Is it a fair assumption then,
10:51
Speaker 12: to say that he is one hundred percent going to
10:53
Speaker 12: stick around with the organization beyond this season in his role.
10:57
Speaker 4: Yeah.
10:57
Speaker 11: I mean, you know, I think he hears this. He
11:00
Speaker 11: and Ron had a great relationship, and you know he
11:03
Speaker 11: obviously wonders, but we've calmed him down. We have a
11:05
Speaker 11: hell of a lot of work to do here. We
11:08
Speaker 11: want this to be a prolific off season. I think
11:11
Speaker 11: we change. You can do things differently that you perhaps
11:16
Speaker 11: otherwise wouldn't have done differently. And I think there's things
11:19
Speaker 11: that we can do differently to improve our hand here
11:23
Speaker 11: and we'll do it with him. But we've also got
11:26
Speaker 11: incredibly smart people in and around this organization. Samantha is
11:30
Speaker 11: an incredible owner and she's fundamental to how we're going
11:34
Speaker 11: to get this fix. Jerry Bruckheimer has been with us
11:37
Speaker 11: since day one, and you know, his voice we've heard,
11:42
Speaker 11: but we're going to hear that a little more because
11:44
Speaker 11: we want to get his opinions. We've got a lot
11:47
Speaker 11: of smart people with us on this journey, and we're
11:52
Speaker 11: going to cut measure twice and cut once here, but
11:56
Speaker 11: we are going to improve things, and we are going
11:58
Speaker 11: to push and we're going to make make this a
12:00
Speaker 11: better place for UH players to play and for families
12:05
Speaker 11: to live. And we've got a lot of ambition, and
12:08
Speaker 11: you don't do something like this if you don't have ambition.
12:13
Speaker 11: This isn't mitigation. This is about getting aggressive and getting
12:17
Speaker 11: after it. And when you look at our track record,
12:20
Speaker 11: the things we've set our mind to, we've done and
12:24
Speaker 11: in fact, this is not the hardest thing we've done.
12:28
Speaker 11: But this is the next thing we're going to do.
12:32
Speaker 10: Here's cracking Kata and Jordan every after morning skate on
12:35
Speaker 10: the gravity of the news.
12:39
Speaker 13: Sure reaction is you're you know, you're disappointing the group.
12:42
Speaker 13: I think the big reason of you know, why the
12:45
Speaker 13: stuff like this happens is the team is underperforming and
12:47
Speaker 13: we're not where we need to be. So, you know,
12:49
Speaker 13: I think each guy in here, you know, needs to,
12:52
Speaker 13: you know, take some responsibility.
12:53
Speaker 4: For what for what happened at the end of the day.
12:55
Speaker 13: We're in a good spot for the break in for
12:59
Speaker 13: where where we are now, So you know, I think
13:03
Speaker 13: a lot of it lies with us responsibility.
13:05
Speaker 10: So the krack and no, they're path as far as
13:07
Speaker 10: long term, but short term there's still nine points out
13:10
Speaker 10: of wildcard spot too, trying to stave off elimination last
13:13
Speaker 10: time out, of course, losing Tuesday five to two at Minnesota,
13:16
Speaker 10: and they're trying to get out of an zero five
13:18
Speaker 10: and one run in their last six games with this
13:21

Speaker 18: If you're listening to Seattle Cracking Hockey on the Crack
16:29
Speaker 18: and Audio Network.
16:30
Speaker 10: Cracking in Vegas coming in twenty one minutes and time
16:33
Speaker 10: to ask.
16:33
Speaker 4: What are the odds?
16:34
Speaker 10: That's brought to you by the Evergreen Council on Problem
16:36
Speaker 10: Gambling and your odds are courtesy bet MGM. In the
16:39
Speaker 10: line with Vegas at minus two hundred, the over under
16:42
Speaker 10: is six. The Evergreen Council on Problem Gambling wants to
16:45
Speaker 10: remind you at the end of the game you should
16:47
Speaker 10: still be having fun. I know the real score about gambling.
16:50

16:57
Speaker 10: Wade dot Org. Your pregame show is served up by
17:00
Speaker 10: frostpured course light, Jews, Chill, Mike Betton again with you
17:03
Speaker 10: back by the corpse light landing in section twenty and
17:05
Speaker 10: our look at Vegas begins with a bold move late
17:08
Speaker 10: in the season. Bruce Cassidy out as head coach. John
17:12
Speaker 10: Tortorella was in March twenty ninth, adding to now twenty
17:16
Speaker 10: three seasons as an NHL head coach, and Vegas now
17:20
Speaker 10: a new stop after Tampa Bay the Rangers, Canucks, Blue Jackets,
17:24
Speaker 10: and Flyers, and perhaps a big reason Vegas this year
17:28
Speaker 10: consistently inconsistent. They had lost six of seven back and
17:31
Speaker 10: forth they went a course in the division and since
17:33
Speaker 10: the Tortorella higher they're four to zero, averaging four point
17:37
Speaker 10: two goals per game, but squeaked one out against Vancouver
17:40
Speaker 10: in their last win, two to one. That was back
17:42
Speaker 10: on Tuesday, with Cole Smith getting the game winning goal
17:46
Speaker 10: and Carter Hart in net newly added to their mix
17:49
Speaker 10: between the pipes, only had to make ten saves as well.
17:52
Speaker 4: In that game.
17:53
Speaker 10: Here's John Tortorella who said, there's plenty of meeting by
17:56
Speaker 10: getting scoring from their depth.
17:58
Speaker 4: We've got some. We've had him scoring through it.
18:00
Speaker 19: Howd has scored some goals, and to me, that's a
18:04
Speaker 19: good sign. And I think it helps your team because
18:07
Speaker 19: I know, I know the top players love seeing those
18:11
Speaker 19: guys get a little accolade as far as scoring a
18:15
Speaker 19: big goal, usually the big guys that usually scoring them.
18:18
Speaker 19: I think it helps your camaraderie and it bodes well
18:21
Speaker 19: as you keep on building your team, getting ready hopefully
18:24
Speaker 19: if we play the real stuff coming up big.
18:26
Speaker 10: Thanks to Vegas Golden Knights Radio for that SoundBite with
18:30
Speaker 10: John Tortorella. Eight and Hill will be between the pipes
18:32
Speaker 10: for them tonight, first time back in for him since
18:34
Speaker 10: March thirtieth, these two one and two last five games,
18:37
Speaker 10: owning a four to two and two record lifetime against
18:40
Speaker 10: the Kraken with a nine to zero four say percentage.
18:43
Speaker 10: Vegas story lines first up again with Jack Eichel's impact.
18:46
Speaker 10: He's the Vegas leading scorer this year eighty two points.
18:50
Speaker 10: In seventy games, eight points in the last six as well.
18:53
Speaker 10: And he's got eight points as well last four games
18:56
Speaker 10: overall covering the last two seasons against the Krack, and
19:00
Speaker 10: he can be a handful. Secondly, first goal impact Vegas
19:03
Speaker 10: when they score first a record of twenty two, four
19:06
Speaker 10: and six and when they do not fourteen, twenty two
19:09
Speaker 10: and ten both times this year. By the way, Kraken wins.
19:13
Speaker 10: It was the Kraken who scored first in this matchup
19:16

21:35
Speaker 1: We're back in Zi a Climb and Plaid Arena Kraken
21:37
Speaker 1: and kicking off their final three games here at home
21:41
Speaker 1: before the off season five overall. They'll wrap up next
21:45
Speaker 1: Wednesday and Thursday in Vegas and in Nashville. Kracken Welcome
21:49
Speaker 1: in the Vegas Golden Knights. Here's a night evert fits you.
21:51
Speaker 1: He is al Kiniski. Back alongside. We talked about the
21:54
Speaker 1: big news yesterday. Ron Francis and the Kraken mutually agreeing
21:58
Speaker 1: to part ways. Ron Francis, of course, the president of
22:01
Speaker 1: Hockey Ops, the inaugural old general manager for this team.
22:04
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, there are still
22:06
Speaker 1: five games left, as Lane Lambert said this morning, Until
22:10
Speaker 1: that E is next to your name and the standings,
22:12
Speaker 1: you're still fighting for a playoff spot. So partner two
22:15
Speaker 1: big points on the line tonight against your expansion rival
22:19
Speaker 1: in the Vegas Golden Knights.
22:20
Speaker 4: How do they get them?
22:21
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, compete for every puck. You're back home.
22:24
Speaker 5: This is your house, your fridge, and you're remote, so
22:27
Speaker 5: start acting like it. Every puck should feel like it
22:29
Speaker 5: insulted your family and knows your money. If the Kraken
22:31
Speaker 5: are second to loose Bucks, they're basically ruling out the
22:34
Speaker 5: red carpet and offering snacks. First touch, first battle, first everything.
22:39
Speaker 5: Set the tone early, or spend the night chasing it. Secondly,
22:42
Speaker 5: keep the goals against to three or less. This can't
22:45
Speaker 5: be a track meet. It's got to be a controlled burn.
22:48
Speaker 5: Three or less. That's the magic number. Anything beyond that
22:51
Speaker 5: and things get sideways real fast. You give a team
22:53
Speaker 5: like Vegas too many looks, and suddenly it's a highlight
22:56
Speaker 5: reel you don't want to be a part of. Lock
22:58
Speaker 5: it down, clear the crease like it's rush hour traffic,
23:00
Speaker 5: and make Joey to Coord's life boring, but in a
23:03
Speaker 5: good way. Third, win the special teams battle special teams
23:08
Speaker 5: where games quietly get stolen while everyone's grabbing a drink.
23:11
Speaker 5: The power play needs to show up with purpose, not
23:14
Speaker 5: just vibes and hope and the penalty kill. That's your
23:17
Speaker 5: shutdown crew. No entry, no chances, no fun. Win this
23:20
Speaker 5: part of the game, and you force Vegas to play
23:22
Speaker 5: uphill all night. So here's the deal. You want a
23:25
Speaker 5: couple more wins at home, earn every inch like your
23:29
Speaker 5: career rides on it, hunt down pucks, and clamp down
23:31
Speaker 5: defensively so the scoreboard doesn't get goofy, and make special
23:34
Speaker 5: teams your secret weapon instead of your weak spot. Do
23:37
Speaker 5: those three things, and suddenly Climate Pledge turns into a
23:40
Speaker 5: place teams hate visiting. Otherwise, if you're just giving Vegas
23:44
Speaker 5: a comfortable stay.
23:45
Speaker 1: We talked earlier in the pregame show served up by
23:47
Speaker 1: Frost brew Course about the level of responsibility and ownership
23:51
Speaker 1: the krack and take the players and the coaches. Take
23:53
Speaker 1: we're here from Lan Lambert here coming up in a
23:55
Speaker 1: matter of moments. But I mean it has to be
23:58
Speaker 1: hard knowing that for a lot of eyes on this team,
24:00
Speaker 1: the person that drafted you, the person that traded for you,
24:04
Speaker 1: the person that signed you, the person that picked you
24:06
Speaker 1: in the expansion draft is no longer a member of
24:09
Speaker 1: the organization. So how do you harness that emotion and
24:14
Speaker 1: channel that positively?
24:15
Speaker 5: Well, you remind yourself and certainly by the time you're
24:17
Speaker 5: in the NHL, you've got to know this. It's a business,
24:19
Speaker 5: and you know it's a business, and certainly that doesn't
24:21
Speaker 5: mean you're emotion less, but you remind yourself that it's
24:24
Speaker 5: a business. And that person that drafted you, that person
24:27
Speaker 5: that called you on draft day, that person that traded
24:29
Speaker 5: for you, that person's not going away. Chances are they're
24:31
Speaker 5: going to be in one of these other thirty one
24:32
Speaker 5: teams in some capacity. Your palals will cross again. You'll
24:36
Speaker 5: have a good catchup and obviously thank that person this case,
24:39
Speaker 5: Ron Francis for doing what he did for you. So
24:41
Speaker 5: you put that aside. You come out, you play hockey.
24:43
Speaker 5: It's business time.
24:44
Speaker 1: We've seen good starts from Seattle in recent games, and
24:46
Speaker 1: then it's all just kind of imploded. The Cracking now
24:50
Speaker 1: on a five game regulation losing streak, zero five and
24:53
Speaker 1: one in their last six games outside of a shutout
24:57
Speaker 1: against the Edmonton oiler is a three to zher shutout
24:59
Speaker 1: over the others. The Kraken have scored two goals in
25:02
Speaker 1: each of their last five games in which they've scored.
25:06
Speaker 1: They will allow four or more goals now and four
25:09
Speaker 1: straight games. Defensively, something's gotta give here tonight for Seattle.
25:14
Speaker 5: I mean you just pointed at the problem though defensively
25:17
Speaker 5: four plus goals, offensively not scoring enough. The other one
25:19
Speaker 5: is sales power plays zero for seventeen in the last
25:22
Speaker 5: eight games. So that's why I threw special teams in
25:25
Speaker 5: there as a key tonight.
25:26
Speaker 4: They've got to.
25:26
Speaker 5: At least equalize that. Hey, Vegas gets a goal in
25:29
Speaker 5: their power play, you've got to get one or either
25:32
Speaker 5: or both teams go go unscoreless for their power plays.
25:36
Speaker 4: But you can't leave this game giving up power play
25:39
Speaker 4: goals and not getting any of your own. So that's
25:40
Speaker 4: a big part of it as well.
25:41
Speaker 5: So defensive structure, keep that that that number down to
25:44
Speaker 5: three or less, go get a few more than two
25:47
Speaker 5: and win that special teams battle.
25:49
Speaker 4: You know who our.
25:50
Speaker 1: Equalizer is, Mike Benon And I mean like the Denzel
25:53
Speaker 1: Washington character equalizer.
25:55
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's standing by. He's got more for you.

Speaker 1: Thanks Mike Lane. Pretty big announcement yesterday. Ron Francis partying
28:30
Speaker 1: ways with the organization and just wanted to get your
28:33
Speaker 1: thoughts on what has been a very interesting and for
28:36
Speaker 1: a lot of folks, difficult last twenty four hours for Seattle.
28:39
Speaker 25: Yeah, you know, always always difficult to see when something
28:45
Speaker 25: like that happens, and certainly from a guy who you know,
28:48
Speaker 25: built the organization from the ground up, and we're talking
28:51
Speaker 25: everything from locker room design to you know, practice rank design,
28:56
Speaker 25: to logo to everything, and you know, his stamp is
29:01
Speaker 25: certainly on the organization and will remain on in the
29:06
Speaker 25: organization forever, you know. And for me, I look at
29:11
Speaker 25: when something like this happens to somebody in hockey operations, uh,
29:14
Speaker 25: you know, and it's maybe not.
29:16
Speaker 5: The coaching staff that it happens too.
29:18
Speaker 25: As a coaching staff, you have to sit there and
29:20
Speaker 25: looking and realize, you know and understand what part you
29:24
Speaker 25: played in it, and you know and same with the players.
29:28
Speaker 25: So there certainly is a sense of responsibility for what
29:31
Speaker 25: happened from our from our end, and you know, we're
29:34
Speaker 25: disappointed in ourselves right now, you know, and certainly disappointed
29:41
Speaker 25: that someone's life has to change like that.
