So we talked about the but I mean for you to have your first game in a month and be pretty busy out there especially in the first period I mean how did you feel about tonight felt good felt really good all throughout the whole night um I

Think the preparation was good all week um we had a good week of practice like when I got here on Tuesday started from Tuesday we were working hard right from the GetGo and I think the guys bought into what we wanted to do this weekend

And it was it was fun to see um Sheamus did an awesome job with me doing some deal tail work and I think uh ABS uh finny and uh P did a great job with the players really making sure read the details right tonight are there any

Saves like as a goal on that you make that’s a quality scoring chance it kind of helps you know your dialed in I mean even in the second period fans is their leading scorer in this Stone away I don’t know because I mean you say that

Then all of a sudden you make a nice save and all a they score a goal where it deflects off a guy hits a guy in the ribs and goes in so it’s go tending it’s it’s hockey it’s random I don’t think you ever know if you’re dialed in or if

You’re not dialed in it’s just about facing the next Puck when it comes what’s it like I mean being at this level which you’ve been here many times before but I mean you’re playing with talented players and you’re facing great talented players still in g j sorry repeat the question sorry like so

Obviously you’ve been in the NHL now this season but having been in the American League before I mean what’s the talent like here I guess level of difference um I mean this is the Fe Le the NHL if you’re not NHL you’re in this league so I mean it’s very good very

Good players very skilled it’s uh it’s also a very different lead than when I was playing when I was younger when I was younger was mostly veterans and a few young guys sprinkled in but now it’s a lot more young guys a lot more skill and guys trying to make plays and uh

It’s a different game than when I was first in the American League no no I just tried to have fun with there tonight just do my thing and have fun and enjoy it and play the best I could I think the guys did a great job in front of me just making it easy and

It it was a lot of fun to play in front of them behind them tonight think he was great I mean I mean all six guys are fantastic I mean I I think Novi was fantastic he played a really good game but I think the the really standout

Play of the game was Bryce taking a shot off the ankle making that big block I think that’s that’s I mean that’s outstanding a guy who just got sent down from the NHL the American League and he’s doing whatever he can to make it his way back I think you can tell right

Now he’s I mean he’s he’s a great player he deserves to be in the NHL I believe and that block right there just shows him he’s trying to work as hard as he can to get back out there talked about that transition a bit for you to be

Indic and see Bryson and Jo just like bringing it out there playing so free and confident obviously You’ be happy for your guys and stuff but does it feel like it sense of relief too to be like wow I’m seeing it work in progress I mean they’re NHL players they know

They’re NHL players they deserve to be the national League it’s it’s why they get why they get paid as much as they do and why they play as well as they do because they’re NHL players in the day and they’re just it was just product of

The situation I think I mean you look at Tyson Joe has played how many NHL games he’s played a lot of he deserves to be in the NHL he should be in the NHL and it’s just a a situational thing I mean same with Bryce I mean I’ve seen Bryce

Shut down Conor McDavid for a whole game it’s pretty unbelievable to watch a guy skate like that I mean he it just surprises me that those two guys aren’t in the night shot right now especially those two guys right there
