After the Montreal Canadiens were eliminated by the Tampa Lightning in the 2021 Stanley Cup Finals, Suzuki had the good words of the pilot of the “screws», Jon Cooper.
“You have a whole future. Everyone just discovered you,” the Lightning instructor then mentioned.
The youngest captain in the rich history of Switzerland is characterized by his intelligence on the ice, but also by his way of reading and playing.

“Suzuki carries out a lot of small details that don’t necessarily appear at first glance, but have a big impact,” said Bouchard.
“He is an extremely intelligent player. He always has his head up, which allows him to absorb extraordinary information.
“His physical strength amazes me. I didn’t think he was that physically strong. It reminds me of a certain Patrice Bergeron,” concluded former blue-white-red color bearer Lapierre.
