Weekes Royról, kb. a huszadik aki ezeket mondja róla :)

I just think he's been amazing. Since his team took the League by storm in October, there has been no drop-off in how he handles himself, how he interacts with his team or his level of communication with the staff and the players. You often hear him talk about his partnership with the players; what it means and what it represents. The players are just loving it.

Nathan MacKinnon was the No. 1 pick in the 2013 NHL Draft, but Roy didn't throw him to the wolves. He put him on the third line. There were times he wasn't playing center, there were times he wasn't taking faceoffs. As he's adjusted to the League and gotten better and more comfortable, Roy has expanded his responsibilities. He's done a great job of managing MacKinnon's ice time. Not just with him. I think Gabriel Landeskog has improved dramatically, as have Matt Duchene and Ryan O'Reilly.

What about Erik Johnson? How far has he come under Patrick Roy? Not to mention Tyson Barrie. Going into this season, they had an American league defense crops. It's a credit to them, the way those guys have played as a group of seven. They may not be a household-name defense corps, but all those guys are playing hard and responsible. They're making plays and getting the puck to the forwards in transition.

I think a lot of coaches should take heed of what Roy is doing. You watch him on the ice for practices and he's very hands-on in terms of trying to show guys what to do and demonstrate how he wants things done. Not every head coach is willing to do that.

This has also come in the Central Division, which along with the Pacific is the League's toughest division. In those divisions, you're playing playoff hockey every night. Those divisions force you to sink or swim, so you've got to be great pretty much every night. Look at who you're going up against. Those are heavyweight fights every night. There's not too much margin for error right now in the Central, which could have five playoff teams in the Western Conference.
