# Notes and Quotes

# Drew Doughty

It was his first year last year so [Sean Durzi] obviously had a lot to learn. He still does, as we all do. He’s a good player who competes hard and has a lot of confidence. And what you need in this league to succeed is confidence. He definitely doesn’t lack that.

# Sean Walker

I don’t think [Sean Durzi]’s underrated anymore. I think he’s certainly starting to show people that he’s a really good NHL player. He’s really good offensively, but his defensive game is also up there with everybody else. So, I don’t think he can skate by anymore and be called underrated because he’s proven it and continues to do it night in and night out.

Everybody has something to learn. He just seems to pick them up quicker than most.

# Sean Durzi

It’s tough for me because drafting me was a dream come true for me, obviously. But the circumstances at the time made it a good move for both clubs. I’m just happy to show what I can do for this club and prove that these guys (the Kings) made the right choice.

# Todd McLellan

The biggest thing is that he knows he belongs here now, and we know that, too. Sometimes, all a player needs is permission to be here. To know they belong.
