"We've talked about it many times, but the one thing you know you're getting with him, you're going to get work. He's leaving everything out on the ice every night. He gives himself an opportunity based on his awareness in the game and his work ethic. He gives himself an opportunity to allow his skill to come out. Those things have become habits for him now. He's very comfortable away from the puck as a young player, and because of that he's getting an opportunity to play with it more. The one thing Mang really takes pride in is becoming a complete player. I think the biggest thing for him, in the summer, is that he goes home and works on what he perceives to be his weaknesses. I think all good players do that. Guys become comfortable sometimes just working on their strengths, making sure they're in place, but with Mang, he takes great pride in rounding his game out. He goes home in the summer and works on weaknesses, so when he comes back for training camp, he's better in areas that he's set out for himself. And certainly, he's done that this year."
