"The rebuild is done. Now we're stepping into another zone," Dorion said, according to the Ottawa Sun's Bruce Garrioch.
"We've had a plan since we started this rebuild. I feel that we're in the next stage now, it's time to start to win," he said, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.
"The next step for us is not to take anything for granted," Dorion added. "Last year, we felt we were a team that was hard to play against, but now it's time to challenge to get two points every night, be in every game. Games that maybe you got a point last year, you need two this year."
"A lot of people say that, 'When you look on paper,' but that game's not played on paper. Any team can beat any other team any night in the NHL for most nights, so for us, (the goal is) to surprise people. Compete every night like we did last year."
