Sheldon Keefe on the argument between Nylander, Matthews, and Marner on the bench in Game 4: “In the past, that wouldn’t have happened… Guys wouldn’t have talked”

What is your message to the group after the Game 4 loss?

Keefe: It is just about recognizing where we are at here. We are in here today recovering and meeting because we are still alive in this series. We have an opportunity now where the schedule has given us a couple of days — a recovery day, a chance to discuss some things, and a practice day tomorrow before we get out on the road in a building where we won the last time we were there.

There are reasons for optimism.
