from Jesse Granger of the Las Vegas Sun,

As you’ve molded this franchise from the bottom up, and now you’re getting to watch them on the ice, is there anything that has gone a lot better than you expected it would going in?

It’s hard to say at this point because it’s still early. We aren’t even at the midway point of the season. So while we’re delighted with the players we have, their personalities and the way they compete, we’re still underdogs in this league and have a lot to do going forward.

When you watch the Golden Knights analytically, are there things you see that lead you to believe this play is sustainable, and not just a flash in the pan?

When we review our post action reports there are things we like about the numbers and things we need to improve on. Again, there’s a reason we play the games. Things can look fine on paper but that doesn’t matter once the puck is dropped. We’re not interested in getting ahead of ourselves. We stay focused on trying to win the next game. There will be lots of time to talk about how well we did or how well we didn’t do.
