"Having played with Filppula before, Cleary knows what his center likes.

"You have to make sure you back-check because he doesn't back-check very well," Cleary said, smiling. "No, that's just a little joke. With Fill, he's got so much untapped potential. I played a lot with him last year, so I know he's always looking to pass, so you have to be ready to shoot at all times. Sammy's a real shooter, so he'll be shooting and I'll be in front of the net. Fill is so creative -- he's not afraid to try things and take guys one-on-one, so I just have to support him."

"I feel more comfortable playing center, so I'm happy, and I get to play with really good players, so I hope it's going to be fun," he said. "Both are good skaters who can shoot the puck really well, so that's a good thing."

As for playing with Cleary, Filppula smiled and said, "I would like to see him back-check once. That would be nice."

All I can think of about Sammy playing with Cleary whenever they say Sammy shoots and Cleary drives the net is...

Puck...Face...Jaw...Break...Cleary...Out...

Yeah because either player had so much control over that!
