“The guys that are great on faceoffs will still be great on faceoffs. It’s just a little bit of an adjustment. And they’ll probably, truthfully, learn to cheat on this one a little bit too. And Bergy will probably take 1200 draws this year and win 800 of them and he’ll be a Selke award winner. We’ll all have a hug, maybe after this next session, and life will go on.”
-David Backes of the Boston Bruins. Backes is a member of the NHL’s competition committee and has more to say to Matt Dolloff of CBS Boston.

Hard to win a face off, much less cheat on it, if you get thrown out before you even put your stick down.
