from Scott Burnside of ESPN,
On a team that features stars like captain Daniel Alfredsson, Dany Heatley and Wade Redden, none of whom have played particularly well in the first two games of the finals against Anaheim, Murray pointed instead to the 23-year-old Spezza.
Perhaps he was laying down the gauntlet for Spezza, whom he expects great things from.
Perhaps he was just hoping to catch a break in a series in which the Senators are desperate for a break.
Regardless, it is a mark of the evolution, the maturity of the one-time child prodigy that Spezza reacted to Murray’s hopeful comments, not with surprise or nervousness, but with his newfound aplomb.
“I know personally I have to be good,”” Spezza said. “Hopefully I can give the team a jolt. I know I have to be an impact guy.”
