QUOTES
Alex Newhook on welcoming Patrik Laine to the team:
Anytime you come into a new environment and new team, it’s a feeling out process on both sides of it. But I think this group is a very welcoming group; it’s a close knit group. For a guy like him to come in, or anyone to come in, we try to make it as easy a transition. I felt it last year and I’m sure he’s feeling it right now. We need him to come in and be effective, be a difference maker for us and I’m sure he will.
Kirby Dach on how himself, Newhook and Laine complement each other:
I think it’s going to be a good fit. Patty is a world-class shooter. He’s got a lot of high-end skills and can make plays, and same with Newy and myself. I think Newy’s speed, and my speed will open up a lot of lanes for Patty to get open and shoot pucks, for us to get pucks, play give-and-go’s and create offensive in the O-zone.
