I wish I was there with you, but I can’t envision a scenario where there’s a great backup plan

It will almost certainly be a Euro, but this isn’t like 2 years ago where those guys are just there for the taking in late May. One would assume that the best ones have been snatched up by now.
That being said, I’m still pretty confident Andrej is coming back. I have to believe that the coaching staff wouldn’t have let Andrej’s camp dictate who else we could recruit if there wasn’t a very high level of confidence that he’d return.

When something is happening, young people like to say it’s “lit.”
