New York Rangers forward Gabriel Perreault talks about Jacob Fowler of the Montreal Canadiens<\/p>\n

Here’s an excerpt from one of his statements, as reported by TVA Sports.<\/p>\n

Perreault was a teammate of Fowler’s, notably at Boston College:<\/p>\n

“For two years, he was our best player.<\/p>\n

He was excellent for us.<\/p>\n

The Canadiens will have a good goalie for a long time.”<\/p>\n

– Gabriel Perreault, via TVA Sports<\/p>\n

“Yes, he was that good.<\/p>\n

He won us so many games.<\/p>\n

He always shows up to the rink with the same mindset.<\/p>\n

He wants to win, and he will win.”<\/p>\n
