PROMPT 2

Jimmy, thanks for joining us for pregame, I know thinks have been difficult on the ice for you and the Panthers this season so we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us a bit.

Of course, it's nice to stay in touch with you guys and the fans. It's not been the season we expected but there's still a lot of stuff moving behind the scenes.

Definitely the case. You've struggled personally coming in from a very cold international window, back up to a point per game at this point now, but what has been the biggest difficulty for you keeping you from reaching the level you played at last season?

I think we're all still adapting to the offseason rule changes, though I know it's not a good excuse. Teams like the Platoon have really thrived in this transition period and I've struggled to adapt to some extent. Maybe next season there's more changes that cater to my playstyle, but until then I'll keep pushing forward and hoping that my shots start to fall.

Thanks Wags, we hope so too. Good luck tonight.
