0:00I don't. Matt's here. Wait. Bonjour, come on, Zema? Zema, bien. I guess we'll start with winning a couple of years ago. Okay. You finally hit the dream. Was it everything you thought it was going to be? Yeah, well, it was great. I mean, when you dream about it, when you're a child, obviously my dreams, I was a hell of a goalie playing and I would add a bigger role. But I mean, when you win it, it doesn't matter how you win it. I mean, you've been dreaming about your old life. I really enjoyed it. Now that you know the feeling, do you want it as badly to do it again or is life fulfilled almost to a degree? No, I mean, once you've done it, you know how good it is. You want to do it again and I just hope one day in my career, I'll have the chance of

0:46doing it again. Well, I hope so. You guys are playing pretty well. Yeah, all right, Matt. I mean, we're not really consistent. I mean, you were still on the race. You know, not like Edmonton as much so much. But you've been here. What were your experiences here? What do you remember best about Edmonton? It was good. I mean, I remember getting in Edmonton and I was about more like a backup and by the end of the season, I think I played a lot more games than I expected. My second year was a little tougher with three goalies, but I mean, it was a good experience overall. You had a hell of a year in shootouts if I remember correctly? Yeah, that year was really special. We had a good year in shootouts. What do you think about the shootouts?

1:32Do you think it's easier on the goalie or on the player? Well, as a goalie, if you make the saves and the guys in your team make score one or two goals, it's always easier. And that year, I think, I think M's key or whoever, Sam Ganyu was, they were always scoring goals like one, one or two goals. So it made me look better. It's probably easier for the goalie. I mean, if you look at the odds, you don't see as many goals as he says. You've played in a lot of markets over the years. Montreal, LA here, Pittsburgh recently now in Columbus. Is it always difficult to move and be traded? Or do you look forward to it and see it as an opportunity? Well, it's not, I mean, as an hockey player and as a father with a child going to school,

2:22it's never a good thing to move. And I mean, you don't look forward to get traded or find somewhere else. It's, I think for myself, I wish I had a chance to play in the only one place and that move. It's never been fun moving, but I mean, it's part of the game. But without it, you wouldn't have won a cup, potentially. Yeah, you're right. That year was, I mean, at the time it was, took it hard, but a couple months later, I was really happy it happened. Where is the family? Back or are they in Columbus? I'm here in Columbus, yeah. Is your son learning French? No, we're both learning in English. Well, I mean, we speak a little bit of French at home, but that's cool. They take English and it's the best way I think. Yeah, they're enough, just curious.

3:07We do something on the show called Five Questions. Five quick questions, one more answers. Yeah. Patrick O'Rouvich or Martembroder? Patrick O'Rouvich. Landon or McCartney? Mccartney. Mccartney. Crosby or Ovechkin? Crosby. The hardest moment in hockey. When the stomach up. Of course. And in one word, Matzio Gao. That's two words, but hard worker. Hard way. You hyphenate them and you're good. Yeah.
