breaks good happen plays team tonight
When the team plays well, good things happen for the individuals as well. I got some good breaks tonight and was able to put them away.
goals happen period played seemed took waiting
They played well in the first period and got up 2-0 on us. We scored some big short-handed goals that really got us going. It seemed like we were waiting for something to happen and when it did, we took over.
expected happen kicking mistake understand
We kind of expected him to be suspended. Kicking has no part in this game. I understand the suspension. It's tough. Things happen so quick, but you shouldn't kick anyone. I think he realizes his mistake and I don't think you will see him do that again.
happen knew situation
I think we were in a situation (with Martin) where we knew all the drills by heart. We'd do some different things, but you kind of knew what was going to happen day-to-day.
happen pressure takes
He can make things happen from nothing and from nowhere. He takes pressure off guys.
anybody call careful happened league rather recently worry
You know the league has to be careful with what's happened recently (in New Orleans) and they're going to make the right call because they don't want to put anybody in danger. This is not something you can worry about because you can't do anything about it. As players, we would rather play.
agreement bargaining believe collective everybody good job man move support sure ted wants
I'm sure everybody is going to support Ted Saskin because he is the right man for the job. He did a good job for us in the collective bargaining agreement negotiations and I believe everybody wants to move forward.
biggest felt game
The biggest thing we had in this game was the passion. From the beginning, we wanted this game, and the Czechs felt that.
laid
(St. Louis) just laid down. (But) I shouldn't have done it.
finish good job somebody step three time year
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.
happy
I'm happy it was Fisher, ... because he's pretty good-looking.
cup dream experience great nice since stanley winning won
It was a great experience and it was the first big thing I'd won since juniors. But I dream of winning the Stanley Cup in Ottawa. And that's what I was thinking. It was nice to win at home, but it wasn't the one I want.
It was pretty cool. It was nothing really, just a little jarring.
