I thought this interview was great. I think I've seen this part quoted a few times in CP already:
Quote:
TSN: Finally, Darryl came in 14 months ago. What’s the biggest shift you’ve seen out of this group since he took over?
Tanev: “Mindset, culture. I think coming to work every day and expecting to win, preparing to win, practising to win. I think he’s changed that all dramatically. Every day is a new day. Regardless of what happened yesterday, you move forward and expect to win the next day. When you’re at practice, you’re expected to make tape-to-tape passes, work hard, skate, and then prepare for the next game. It just becomes a big cycle where you play, reset, and expect to win and try to get better every day at what you can improve on what the team can improve on. That’s going to be a big thing for us down the stretch. We need to clean up some things and get our game to where it needs to be.”

But the part that was hilarious to me was the following:
Quote:
Funniest guy on the team? Z [Nikita Zadorov]
Best style? Backs [Mikael Backlund] can show it off a bit. He knows what he’s doing in that department
Worst style? Mang [Andrew Mangiapane]

I can tell Z has a fun charisma to him -
from the big Russian behind the scenes video on the Flames, but imagining that Backlund is somehow the fashionista of the Flames is hilarious and I just imagine Mangiapane walking around all day in his ugly C t-shirt.
