Quotes from Drew Doughty

 Here is a straight forward quote about playing hockey in this generation of the game.  Although hockey is a team sport it used to have big individual stars that relied on their own handling of the puck and scoring.  Here’s what Drew says about the game now,   “What you can expect to do is go to the net hard.  The goalies are so good these days if you’re not getting screens in front, if you're not getting rebounds or tips, goals aren't going to go in.”

Of course I like it when Doughty says something in a deadpan sort of way.  When asked about a particularity hard foul on another player Drew said,  "Generally, out West that's not a penalty."  Drew is sensitive about penalties s he is well known for spending back to back time in the penalty box.
