hey! english is not my first language and matthew said something in ep 6 that i really don't get? can you explain it to me? he's speaking to the players in the locker room before game 7 v edmonton and he said "you fucking put me in that locker room last year in vegas, game 5. you tell me you have a fucking game 7 at home?"

ik he was referencing his injury last year that put him out of commission for game 5 but other than that i don't get the second part??? lmaooo

Yeah, he said something similar in an interview either before or after game 7, where he expanded on that a little more and he was saying, if you'd told us in that locker room after the game 5 loss in vegas that'd we'd be guaranteed to be back next year playing a game 7 at home we all would've taken that deal

UPDATE: he actually said this in his cam & strick podcast
