Lukas Rousek Post Skate | 12.27.23
Uh I guess one thing I want to start with is I mean you’re from Shaka you’re in cool League who’s a teammate of yours here is Captain for their team in World Juniors is that pretty cool to see yeah it’s a pretty cool uh we talk about the tournament just play
Simple play play for the Czech C National and play have fun with the guys from check you know all of the people a and the captain be cruel for him but he’s ready for that did you get chance to shoot him a text or anything oh yeah
We text yesterday about the game because I didn’t watch but I just text what what’s happened how was the game that’s all just little bit short conversation any CH uh I think in about 10 minutes their game starts any chance you’ll uh get an opportunity to watch him a little
Bit Yeah I watch the highlights after the game but not really but I watch today he play at like 11 yeah soon yeah I just watch like couple periods like one two periods take that before the game awesome uh how nice was it before that Christmas break to to get a win in
Syracuse uh it’s a big win for us uh before the Christmas break uh against the C like the biggest game for us like the close to city in the in the league and win against against syracus in Syracuse a big win for us for everybody what have
You doing right coach a was just in here and he used the word elite said that that’s how you’ve been playing these last couple of weeks so what do you think you’re doing right uh I think we play very very hard last two weeks but we have sometimes unlucky in games like
We have the like two and three two and two and then we lose but the last game in Syracuse so we win like overtime and I think it’s a feel better for everybody in the locker room can you talk about your line it’s like tonight you’re going
To be with no again but you played a lot with Brandon Myro uh what do what do you guys do as a unit together uh I play with Brandon like almost time when I come here to Rochester I play with him like my third year here I play like almost like 70%
75% I think play with him and we are those similar player I think we are both like the prefer the smart things in the ring and we help each other and know is young kid we find him and we work he work hard but uh still he’s like 19 18
Years old he’s it’s hard for him like first year in American Hockey League are you seeing you mentioned he’s 19 years old are you seeing him get better and better yeah for sure every game I feeling for feeling he is better and better uh he is play hard he play faster
And I think he ready every game for more to the American Hockey League you’re such a playmaker and I know you love the pass the puck but you’ve had a couple of goals lately so are you more comfortable shooting a little bit uh not really but the we p and a set one
To be more shooter than a pet don’t just just play playmaker and just assist he wants to more shoot then I just cou again more shoot to to normal did you like your your one uh it’s like the half one it’s like the good pass with Brandon just like
Almost empty net but I just still prefer to play makers and passer you you talked earlier about you you and Syracuse the ammer and the crunch are pretty close in the standings and you played them now a couple of times what makes them tough uh it’s uh it’s a big differ if
You play home and in a grunch in Syracuse it’s he play for me play a big different Home and Away the Syracuse and he have like a tough d t forward like the big and a hard play against him but we need play like the smart and faster
That’s like big different I think about the Emer and crunch like the teams one app said is Saturday he mentioned Tyson Kaki said he was blocking a ton of shots and he said rally Stillman had an unbelievable hit and a fight what does that do like you’re a guy on the bench
And see that like how does that help the motivation as a team uh to help a lot because everybody have like different player different style every sometimes have like the BL sh very good F PK somebody like play a power PL so every every guys have a different position in
The team and everybody doing this job what what we talk about for the game and everybody know what rules he have or we have
