Botterill has a lot on his plate for the offseason

Source: WGR-AM

‘”You look at the playoffs, there’s certainly some strong and physical players, but it’s about getting to the front of the net and about winning the battles in front of the net in your own [defensive] zone. We have players that have enough size, but now it’s just understanding how to go into the corners and win battles. I go back to my own experiences being a part of teams in Pittsburgh that played in 2008 and 2009 [in the Stanley Cup Final] against the Detroit Red Wings. [Pavel] Datsyuk and [Henrik] Zetterberg would always come out of the corners with pucks, so you have to find a way. Whether it’s physical strength or using your skills to win 1-on-1 battles. I think that’s something we have to improve on as a team.”‘
