We had four games to win one and we couldn't do it, ... The bottom line is, we didn't do it.
There are people on this team who have had great individual seasons, put up numbers, won awards, done this or that, but the bottom line is that we're trying to win. Who cares what numbers you put up, what accolades you get; you want to win. If we're going to win, we have to do the little things.
Any way you can get it done. We have to find ways to win; it may not be pretty at times, but the bottom line is wins and losses.

I've never had a chance to play for my country before. In that sense, I'm excited about it, curious to see what the atmosphere is going to be like. From what I understand, the fans are pretty excited about it. We'll see when we get out there.
