I truly believe there is going to be zero tolerance, ... Can you imagine (Modano) coming through the neutral zone now? He probably gets hooked more than any player in the league.

It's definitely an advantage. We've got guys that have played together the last three or four years. A lot of teams really juggled their rosters. The core of our team is back, most of the team is back. We're sitting good right now.
