ahead bad everybody game happened hockey known sitting time tried
It happened pretty quickly. We're sitting up here for a hockey game and they're going through a hurricane. If we'd known ahead of time it was going to be that bad we'd have tried to get everybody out of there.
good practice rust time
It's been a long time (since) even a competitive practice for me. It's good to get the rust off.
banging bit bodies creating game good joe man spend style time traffic
We're different guys, for sure. I'm a little more bullheaded, probably, and have to be because of the style of game I play. My game's a little different than Joe's. Joe is a real good face-off man and a good shot. Me, I spend a little more time in the traffic banging bodies and creating a little bit of havoc.
game looking looks meaningful time wished wondering
We wished it would have been a more meaningful game. We were looking at that game a long time ago wondering if it would mean something. Now it looks like it's going to mean ninth, 10th, 11th place, unfortunately.
hockey pittsburgh sitting stressful time
It was a very stressful time for all of us. We were sitting up here in Pittsburgh for a hockey game, and they were going through a hurricane.

We'll take a little extra time this time around to make sure it's 100 percent.
appreciate fortunate last time
I appreciate it a lot more than the last time I was here. After what I've been through with my injuries, I feel very fortunate to get this opportunity.
definitely longer sure time
It has definitely been longer than I thought it would be. But I've got to make sure I come back for a long time and not one or two games.
best found game hard progress
We're making some real progress. We didn't have our best game but we battled hard and found a way to win, and that's what we need to do down the stretch.
ncaa potential risk
The potential here is significant. The NCAA is at some risk.
careers finish florida gives together
We started our careers together and we wanted to finish our careers together. And going to Florida gives us that opportunity.
deal division dozen encouraged gone helped invest kids races riders run smartest youth
I think the smartest thing they've done is invest in youth speedway. They run the youth races every week. They've helped the kids, encouraged the kids and they've made a big deal out of it. Now there's about a dozen Division I riders that have gone through that youth program.
attended days saw three york
I saw that down here about three days ago and I thought it must be Ithaca, New York (where Nieuwendyk attended Cornell). It must be the granolas in Ithaca that have made him that way.
