Frank Fedorjaka on Scally: "John has done a terrific job as a team leader and has really embraced that role. He is playing at his highest level, and that is saying something because he is probably the best ground ball guy I've every coached. He has a great knack for the ball and is a big key to our faceoff game. He will also play more 6-on-6 this year."
