Since he did not fight, he plays better hockey

Said this for a while... he needed to work on his defensive play and there was too much of his energy spent on fighting and protecting players. There is a role for him in that area but the #1 priority is playing actual defense.

He's a smart kid and he appears to have figured out where to channel his energy and focus. Good stuff we are seeing right now.

Left hands but nevertheless....

He had a tough game but that's going to happen. Once we move on from Savy this or next year, I hope they bring in a vet RD to pair up with him next year.

MSL just need to let him LD. Let Struble play RD when he gets in for Savard
