Craig Berube on coaching a Maple Leafs vs. Bruins game in the building where he won the Stanley Cup: "I always get pretty jacked up coming into this building"
Briefly

The article discusses the intense rivalry between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins, highlighting that Xs and Os often become secondary in such emotionally charged matchups. Coach Craig Berube emphasizes the significance of energy and focus during the morning skate, especially before a big game. He notes the importance of controlling their performance rather than fixating on the standings. Additionally, the availability of both goalies, Anthony Stolarz and Joseph Woll, is seen as beneficial for rotation and player stamina as the season progresses.
Joe Sacco said that when these two teams play, Xs and Os go out the windows. It is always a competitive and physical game.
Berube: We can't control what other teams do. We can only control what we do night in and night out. If you look at the league standings, everywhere, it is tight.
Berube commented on the team's recent performance, stating that the energy at the morning skate had a lot of life, which is a good sign for us.
Having both Anthony Stolarz and Joseph Woll available is a nice thing to have. You're not wearing someone out, either, when using both guys.
