Sheldon Keefe said the other night that the top guys are struggling still to get into a rhythm. How are you feeling after four games this season?
Marner: Obviously, it takes a little bit to get going, but we feel good about where we are. A lot of stuff happens behind these doors when [the media] isn’t here and the fans aren’t here. We talk about all of that stuff. We know what we need to do to be successful.
When you hear the coach say, “We need the elite players to be elite players,” what goes through your mind?
