Locker Room Banter: Tyler Seguin Chats with Jamie Benn
Tyler Seguin: Hey Bennie, you had quite the game last night! That OT winner was something else. If I didn’t know better, I’d say you’ve got some magic in that stick of yours.
Jamie Benn: (Laughing) Oh, come on, Segs. That pass you made to set it up was the real magic. Speaking of magic, when are we going to see you pull a rabbit out of your hat again with those slick shootout goals?
Tyler Seguin: (Chuckling) Soon, man, soon. But only if you keep those assists coming! By the way, did you catch the new episode of that Netflix series we talked about?
Jamie Benn: You mean “The Queens Gambit”? Yeah, I did. Can you believe how intense those chess matches get? Just like a heated third period, right?
Tyler Seguin: (Enthusiastically) Absolutely! It’s all about strategy and staying calm under pressure. Speaking of which, how about our next road trip? I hear we’ve got some fun team-building activities lined up.
Jamie Benn: Oh yeah? Like what?
Tyler Seguin: (Grinning) Let’s just say Coach has turned into a bit of a camp counselor. Think ropes courses and trust falls.
Jamie Benn: (Laughing) Trust falls? I don’t know if I trust you to catch me, Segs!
Tyler Seguin: (Pretending to be offended) Hey now! I’m like a safety net, I promise! But on a serious note, it’ll be good for the team. We’ve got to keep the chemistry going strong.
Jamie Benn: True, true. Speaking of chemistry, what’s your pre-game routine looking like these days? Still dancing in your skates to your tunes?
Tyler Seguin: (Nodding) You know it! A little bit of Drake, a touch of Post Malone, and I’m in the zone. But word around the rink is that you’ve got some new ritual – care to share?
Jamie Benn: (Smiling) Just trying to stay flexible, man. Been hitting up yoga before games. Gotta keep the ol’ body ready for battle.
Tyler Seguin: (Laughing) Yoga, huh? Maybe I should join you. Imagine that – the whole team doing downward dog before a game. What a sight!
Jamie Benn: (Grinning) Now that would be something! Always good to mix things up, though. Keeps us sharp.
Tyler Seguin: 100%. Anyway, time to hit the ice. Let’s give the fans something to cheer about tonight.
Jamie Benn: You got it, Segs. Let’s go out there and make some magic happen!
