The respect Suzuki has for his new linemates is off the charts.
"Both of them are really smart players," praised the Canadiens' hopeful. "Tatar knows how to be in the right spots. He's a great shooter, and also a great passer. Danault has turned into one of the best two-way forwards in the League. It's a great opportunity for me and hopefully I play well."
Based on his performances thus far, there's no reason to believe Suzuki will be slowing down in the nation's capital.
In fact, Tatar is already a fan.
"He's a super talented guy and really smart. I'm actually really looking forward to playing with him. It's usually fun to play with these kinds of guys. He's young and he's super excited to be here. He's battling," mentioned Tatar, who boasts 507 games of NHL experience. "I'm just going to try to get on that train and enjoy it with him."
Danault admires the young sniper's skill set as well, and feels the trio has some serious potential.
"He's full of confidence. It will be exciting to watch him play. I know he's an excellent passer. He also has a very good shot and good vision," said Danault. "This could create some sparks."
