Quick hits with Byron

The QMJHL website has posted a short interview with Gatineau forward Paul Byron.
You enjoyed a seven-point night last week, the first one in the QMJHL in over two years. Did you ever think that you would go off like that offensively? "Not at all, everything was just going well for me. Obviously, preparation plays a big part, but you never imagine of having a game like that." Why is your line (Paul centers a line with Jean-Philip Chabot and Alexandre Quesnel) playing so well right now? "We have really good chemistry off the ice and I think that’s important. Alex and I are really good friends and we all sit together on the bus. It’s like last year when I was paired with Claude Giroux and Matthew Pistilli. We got along great off the ice and it helped us on the ice."
