close game tie
If you play well, you make your own luck. Obviously, it was close for them to tie the game up, but overall, I thought we were the better team.
game goes good playing tournament
He's our leader. He's playing better and better as the tournament goes on and I think he's got one more good game in him.
boost guys power runs win
He's one of those guys that can win you a game. He runs the power play. It's a big boost for us.
halfway
I don't know if it's a milestone or not but it's halfway to 500 so I'm getting there.
mistakes
I don't know if (the Bolts) wanted it more. We just made too many mistakes and we know we've got to play better as a team.

But you learn from it and you move on. Nobody can take this (pointing at his gold medal) away from us, either.

He played great and he looked really calm in there, not nervous at all,

I can only speak for myself, but the No. 1 thing for me is to win a Stanley Cup.

I couldn't care less. It'd be nice and something to be proud of, but for us it's all about the playoffs.

I'm going to finish out this year and that will be good for me. It's time for somebody else to step in and do the job ... I've done it for three years. I'm going to step aside,
business glad last learned locked move nobody proud side three time tough work year
I learned a lot in the last three years ... especially about the business side of hockey. I'm proud of the work I've done and I was glad to be involved. But I just think it's time for me to move on. This was a tough three years ... especially last year because nobody wanted to be locked out.
coach create knows
The coach knows we can create things and we did.
biggest chance game great ready team tonight tough winning
You've got to be ready to play any team in this league, and we wanted to be ready tonight and I think we were in the first period. I think that's the biggest thing for us. If we go out there and give it a great effort, we're a tough team to beat. We've got a great chance of winning every game now, and that should be our mind-set.
biggest game great obviously tone year
This is a great opportunity. We don't want to have to go back to Florida. We obviously know that this is the biggest game of the year for us and we want to go out there and set the tone right away.
