David Quinn is a huge fan of Adam McQuaid, and more specifically when he plays with Brady Skjei. The Blueshirts’ bench boss addressed the media — as he always does on gameday — prior to Thursday’s 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks, and he had some interesting things to say.
He certainly gives us that defensive presence, and one of the things I think that’s underrated about Adam is he can make an outlet pass. And I think just having that security blanket, so to speak, as a partner has allowed Brady to play a better game.
