This team is playing at its best right now, and those two are a big part of it, right? They&#8217;ve elevated us from where we&#8217;ve been in past years. I think they&#8217;ve added dimensions of defensive depth from K&#8217;Andre and offensive firepower and flare, for lack of a better word, from Nikolaj. It makes us a stronger and deeper team. It gives us a dimension that we haven&#8217;t always had.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sara Holland\/CBS 17: What have you made of Logan Stankoven&#8217;s performance as of late?<\/p>\n<p>Tulsky: &#8220;He&#8217;s been great. The last time I talked to you guys was after the trade deadline where, I got asked if we were comfortable with him. I described then that we had felt that line had been controlling play all year long. He was producing at five-on-five, he just wasn&#8217;t getting a lot of power play time, so the overall point total hadn&#8217;t showed up. Since then, he&#8217;s gotten more power play time, we&#8217;ve seen more shots go in, because sometimes that happens, and he&#8217;s played 20 games since that. He&#8217;s had 12 goals and 19 points. You knew this was in him. People worry a lot about his height, but in the end, it&#8217;s about how hard you fight, and he wins as many puck battles as anyone. He&#8217;s been great for us. He drags a lot of people into the fight, and he makes us harder to play against.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ryan Henkel\/The Hockey News: How satisfied have you been with the additions of\u00a0Nikolaj Ehlers and K&#8217;Andre Miller?
