"Definitely an adjustment period, and I'm the first to say it, I wasn't at my best and didn't show the best parts of my game probably until later on in the year, and started to find it a little bit better,"
"Took the summer to really focus on the small details of my game. I think sometimes when you're in a place for a long time, you lose that a little bit. And to be able to work with the staff in Toronto has really, really helped me. It's really cool. It's cool coming home and having all our family here, especially with a young kid and all that helps. It's been great."
