While Foligno calls out his teammates, he also helps mentor and show them the way in the NHL. He is a leader and stands up for his teammates.
«Do we need an A-hole in the room? You can call it an A-hole, but that's one of the more important guys in a locker room, can look everyone in the eye and say, �You're not doing a good enough job.'»
�Seth Jones
