"It's a very good defensive team we're up against. They don't give you a whole lot. We are going to have to work to get on the inside. They do a good job of capitalizing on their chances, too. They're fast. We have to manage the puck; if you turn it over, coming out of their end, they're quick, and they get out of their end quickly. Travis Sanehim and Cam York are involved in the offense on their D side of things."
"I have some people coming from some of the charities I worked with. I have some family in town. There are relationships I built throughout the years here, and those people are coming down. It will be nice to see the crowd again and be a part of it. We have a tight race here, and it is a very important game for both teams. We need to play well."
The Flyers present a strong defensive challenge that limits space, forces work to get to the inside, and converts on chances while using fast transition play and active offensive defensemen Travis Sanheim and Cam York. Scott Laughton returns to Philadelphia with family and charity guests in attendance and intends to stay composed while observing the game's flow. The Maple Leafs emphasize playing with the puck more, defending more effectively, cutting down time spent defending, and avoiding odd-man rushes. Improved goaltending and special teams have contributed to recent success, boosting confidence as the teams contest a tight, important game.
