"His play has dramatically improved, especially his positional play. A lot of times he would get anxious to carry the puck, and he's good at it, but he would slow us down sometimes when he had an opportunity to move it. He's been moving it quickly lately, and I think he's benefiting from that because he spends less time with it on his stick, gets less attention and we get out of trouble faster. He's been quite good, both him and (Ladislav) Smid have been quite good.
