It's about who turns up in the tournament. We're lucky we've had lots of good games before to prepare, so I think we’re not looking to peak right now.

The delayed start has allowed the Panthers to rest and prepare, focusing on rehab and recovery to stay fresh for the playoffs.

"Last year I took a different approach. I didn't do any exhibitions, I just practised, practised, practised and you know what, I was playing really well going into the Worlds. I did a lot of hours with Michael Smith, but obviously, we all know how that ended."

Daniel Romanchuk emphasizes the need for thorough preparation, stating, 'I have a nice long list of everything I need. I travel with every tool that I could possibly need.' This highlights the meticulous nature of their race preparations.
