games hard high moving overall physical playing progress puck standard
He did set a pretty high standard in the first games he played. It's hard to live up to that. But I think he made a lot of progress in his physical play and just his overall play, really. He's been playing better offensively. He's moving the puck well.

conference cut division looking sooner tomorrow work wrapped
The sooner the better. We're looking at the division and then right after that we look at the conference. We still have a lot of work cut out for us. We're looking to go out, clinch tomorrow and get the first one wrapped up. The conference is right there.

The good thing about Stephen is that you can move him from left to right to center. You could put him on the penalty kill. He can play a regular shift.

They don't come along every day.
