That’s what I decided with my homeland.

I really like Emil’s lineup.

At Tempo, we liked him a lot too.

When I was there watching him play, when I was at Tempo, we liked him.

And when I had the opportunity to see him in the trade, I wanted to see him. He’s a player who skates well, he has good physical strength, he had a good season last year, he’s good on the forecheck.

I think there’s still a lot of growth that can happen with Emil being so young.

He just spent his first full season in the national team, so I expect us to have a great breakout with the Islanders.
