It is no secret that David Quinn absolutely loves Brett Howden’s game. Most likely the biggest reason for it is the one word every coach must have in their head for a player: TRUST!
Today at practice, Howden was centering the 2nd line with Chris Kreider and Kaapo Kakko. Strome has been demoted to the 3rd line with Jesper Fast and also promoted, Brendan Smith. The 4th line will likely be Lemieux and McKegg centered by Lias Andersson who for some odd reason can’t earn more minutes of his own.
Howden is the “Quinn”tesstential player
