James van Riemsdyk calls Scott Laughton one of his favourite teammates of all time ahead of Leafs-Wings tilt
"I think he's definitely got that sort of mentality that nothing seems to really bother him, so that's a pretty incredible trait to have as far as he just doesn't really ride the waves of what's going on around him. He has that kind of confidence and swagger about him, and just wants to play on the biggest stages, and that's what seems to bring out the best in him. Yeah, he was fun to get a chance to play with, especially on a line for a little bit there too. Not surprised to see he's thriving under the new dress code."
"Just the energy that he brings to a team and to the locker room is second to none. He's the type of guy that just brings everyone together, he's friends with everyone in the sense where people are always drawn to him. He's bringing people together"
William Nylander attracted controversy by appearing at a game in a white tank top while sidelined with an injury. He has been using the NHL's relaxed dress code this season to showcase his fashion on a nightly basis. James van Riemsdyk praised Nylander's swagger, confidence, and ability to remain unfazed and to perform on big stages. Van Riemsdyk himself embraced the relaxed dress code, once going viral when he arrived in a Batman costume for his son's birthday, with teammates joining as superheroes for a video. Scott Laughton emerged as a fan favorite for his passionate play and unifying locker-room presence.
