‘Peca has stayed close to Quinn and Peterka and he’s loved it, “Jack had that experience in Rochester the year before, so he was a little bit more understanding to some of the stuff being taught and was expected, but JJ took awhile. JJ I think only had three goals through his first 20 to 25 games (four goals in 23 games. He then scored 24 goals in 47 games) then, he started to understand some of the things that we were trying to teach him and next thing you know, he ended up with four or five or six hat tricks (three), so he’s an impressive young man and I still view him as a unicorn because I can’t find anybody that I’ve ever played with or against that resembles the type of player that he can become, so I’m excited to see both of them play next year.” Peca added, “The scary part is he has no idea as to how good he can be which is scary. It’s the blend of the power and speed and the skill set with his hands and his shot and his ability to play a physical game and he can dominate in any environment.”‘
Michael Peca really enjoys working with Sabres' young players
