[on which teammates surprised him most in Vegas] “Off the ice? Me and Mark Stone absolutely hated each other with a burning passion before we started playing together. When Ottawa played Montreal it was like ‘alright, me and Stoney will be going at it all game chirping each other.’ As soon as we teamed up here in Vegas, we’re like brothers. We talk every day, we text each other away from the rink everyday. He’s one of my best friends on the team. It’s just funny how the game works like that. You can hate someone for so long, but the reason why you probably hate him is because he’s a lot like you on the ice.”
