From Joe Pelletier at Hockey Legends,
I will always remember the late Bob Johnson for two quotes.
The first everyone knows. “It’s a great day for hockey.” But an earlier quote has never left me. “You don’t need great skill to be a good penalty killer. You just need hard work. There’s no reason why every team shouldn’t have a good penalty kill.”
Ultimately, Johnson is right, although certain skill sets make some penalty killers better than others.
