Most people look at him and don't think much of his size, but he's actually a very strong kid. When he's in there battling he's great on his feet and he's good with his stick. He's coming up with pucks most people don't believe he can get. He's making things happen.

We needed this win tonight after losing the last two games in Calgary and Vancouver. It's getting to that time of the year, we've played 50 games and once we hit that Olympic break there won't be much time left before the playoffs.
against contact effective game god initiate simple team
Our game is simple enough and effective enough that if we initiate some contact and do what we need to do, were a god team and its frustrating to play against us.
