"If you know how to buy into the system with those guys, it makes the game easier," Konecny said. "You do the right things. You play defense, and then when I see G or Coots with the puck, I just use my speed to get up ice as fast as I can and try to be a threat that way. And sometimes if I'm pushing their D back, it gives G and Coots an opportunity to make plays. It should be good. It worked really good last year. I know G and Coots are pros, so they did all their work in the offseason and they're going to come back ready to go."
