“No one expected us to be doing what we’re doing, especially after the first half and especially with all the young defencemen, new players and new coaches, so, we’re enjoying it. The meaningful games are more important for what we plan to do down the road. It’s a great experience for our young guys and I’m excited to see how they react to it.

“Six of our seven defencemen have played less than 200 games, so we knew that there would be growing pains and there would make mistakes. But they’re getting better and making fewer and fewer mistakes and playing with composure.”

-Dale Tallon, GM of the Florida Panthers. Michael Traikos of the National Post has more on Florida plus the talk at the GM Meetings.
