Um well you got to get back in the lineup last weekend and I had a pretty nice night on Wednesday how did that feel uh it felt really good obviously we played a pretty good road game against uh pretty big rival of ours and I thought it was a big win especially all
The games coming up trying to get as many points as possible with the standings being so close so I thought it was a great game you’re nor touted for all the things you do well defensively so is it fun individually when points seem to find you yeah I think it always
Feels good when you find a way to get on the on the sheet but uh obviously I like to do the little things well block shots stuff like that uh make some hits but uh feels good to get rewarded talking about talk about yeah I thought we played great obviously uh
Generated a lot of chances scored some goals which is always good but I thought overall defensively all over the ice we played pretty well yeah I know again talk about how good you are defensively you are a point away from the number got last year the lot last games play so I
Mean how do you feel offensively has that part of you grown at all as you going through I think so yeah I think the main thing is just building confidence I think that’s kind of where it all starts once you start feeling more comfortable making plays and stuff like that it just
Comes are a situation where I think a lot of players talking about how defense and offense you find yourself that you know play on backend it can lead to Opportunities yeah for sure I think I just try to be the best 200 foot player
I can be and I think it all starts in the how you play it defensively if you’re giving up giving them nothing and then just set up yourself offensively you somebody looks ATS uh I have recently I hadn’t really been paying attention to it a whole lot
This year but I looked recently and it’s pretty tight yeah what can you make of that like it’s just crazy because you guys can go on the run we’re three in a row or four in a row and be third but it’s like lose two or three depending on what else
Happens yeah yeah I think definitely with all these games coming up we have a pretty busy schedule but I think if we just go one game at a time just focus on each game individually that day I think we’ll be Fine uh yeah I think they’re a good group I think they beat Toronto last game they played pretty handedly so it’s going to be a big test and uh we’re excited
