‘Asked about his level of comfort coaching on short notice, he said, “A lot of the prep work was done previously overnight and into this morning. As you prepare a team, we obviously played them last night (a 5-2 loss), so the prescout’s a little different. For me, I’m comfortable. Obviously, I’ve been watching every game. I’ve been with the team all season. I know our team extremely well. I know the personnel and tendencies. So obviously, have been behind a bench before. I think the players, also, in these situations know this is an opportunity for them to take on adversity in their own way and be better for it. That was part of the message to, ‘Hey, we’re all in this together. Let’s do the best we can.'”‘
