John Tavares |
New York Islanders captain John Tavares, who will captain the Metropolitan Division in the 2016 Honda NHL All-Star Game, spoke to the press at the game's media day on Friday.
Tavares was named captain on Thursday when it was released the Metro division's original captain, Alex Ovechkin, would not play in the game.
Tavares mentioned that the schedule usually "picks up" after the All-Star Game.
When asked about the other New York representative (from the Rangers) Ryan McDonagh, Tavares gave some brief comments.
"I've certainly talked to him a few times," Tavares said. "I have a lot of respect for him, we play against each other so much. He does so much for his team. Such a great all-around player, and such a great skater. Those guys are never easy to play against."
