Was Mark Recchi right about Pavel Zacha?

''He's a great kid; I mean just a great kid and a great teammate ‘'As for him as a player? Well, I think there's a ton of skill there once he can figure our how to use it on a consistent basis.''

‘'I mean talent wise, Donny [Bruins general manager Don Sweeney] got a steal here. Talent-wise he's way better than Haula. He's got the skill and just a big body and when he uses that body he's hard to take the puck away from.''

''With Krejci coming back, that's huge because I know he loves 'Krech' and looks up to him He can really help him on and off the ice.''

‘'Confidence and just putting it all together has been the issue. Last year, he got off to a great start; was really our best player, and then he hit a bump a bit, and he just couldn't seem to dig himself out of it.''

‘'He wants to show he deserved to get drafted where he is, and effort isn't an issue at all; it's just confidence and really knowing he can do it.''
