Maple Leafs’ Dennis Hildeby looks back on first career shutout: ‘This is what I dreamed of’
“At the end of the day, this is what I’ve been dreaming about since I started playing hockey, so you just have to remind yourself of that and have fun and just participate.” Hildeby said after the match.
It is clear that Hildeby’s teammates are happy with his continued development throughout the year.
“It’s great to see Beast get his first shutout. He played great,” Maple Leafs forward John Tavares said.
“I’m really happy for him when the opportunity comes, you want to take it. Great to see him playing really well. We all have confidence in him. He’s a very calm, easy-going guy who is obviously very good in the net. We have to keep doing a good job for him, but he has performed phenomenally, coming in and giving us chances to win.”
“He’s very calm,” Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly said of Hildeby. “He works hard. He’s a routine guy, you learn that quickly. He’s got a nice demeanor, he’s very focused. He’s done a great job coming in, and we’re very happy for him tonight.”
