(The NHL is) trying to create more excitement around the games u not that we need that (against the Leafs), but it's definitely exciting.
It's better already. I should be okay for Game 5.
It's huge. Obviously, I'm the last guy with the big goose egg, and it seemed like it was getting talked about more and more. ... It's nice to not have a zero sitting there.
It was a great passing game for us,
It's a short tournament. If you don't have it, you don't have much time to find it.
It's definitely different, ... All the mud and the water and the obstacles, it makes you not feel the pain of running. Well, you still feel the pain, but it's more fun.
It's a little sad. I'm proud to have been able to bring something like that to the area. To leave it when it's finally becoming quite popular is a little odd and a little unusual. But it's something that needs to be done. The opportunity that has come about is just way too attractive.
The Patrons are quite sad, we're sad. But it's gonna be one hell of a party, to be quite honest with you.
The defense has been great all year, they have kept us in every game.
They (the board) saw some great leadership capabilities in him.
They're really pushing us, too. They've put up billboards on the freeway. Ads on the backs of taxi cabs. TV and radio commercials. Newspaper and magazine ads all over the country. Things just blew up for us all of a sudden. They're actually trying to make us into real stars.
About half the time we played well. The other half, Elk Grove put the pressure on us. Both teams were unhappy to tie, but both teams played well at times.
Defense was the key to our success, the defense has been solid all year.
If you look at the guys that are injured, that's a lot of firepower, a lot of points we're missing. A lot of nights, their talent just takes over and gets you goals. That's why we had to be smarter about not giving up as many chances.
