QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:
“Playing as a team that has four lines, that makes it tough on you, that’s a lot better than just having three lines going and just having a fourth line you can put in here and there. I think it’s important to have four lines going to make it tough on their ‘D’ and their forwards. I think that’s key, in the playoffs especially, to have every guy contributing.” |
