In Sweden and Europe, they pass more and set up other players. Here, they go right to the net.
I don't really think about it. Maybe I do after the game.
I didn't talk to (the posts) but I will when I get to sleep. I will thank them.
I'm getting close to the game I want to play over here, ... It's not just the smaller rink that's different, it's how they play. In Sweden, a lot of players are good passers, good skaters. They hold on to the puck more. There's a lot more dump and chase over here. They go for the net and shoot. If they find an opening over here, they'll hit it.
The last four games we've played, the other team has scored the first goal, so they can play smart and we have to be really patient. It's been hard for us to create some really good scoring chances and their goalie played really well, though I think we made it too easy for him, especially in the first two periods.
I love all the different ways that New Yorkers show their individuality through what they choose to wear.
No special suits for game days. I like to keep all my favorites in the mix. I'm always trying to look my best, even when I'm just visiting a city for eight hours and then getting back on a plane again.
I usually have a hard time with the fit of off-the-rack suits, thanks to my athletic proportions, but somehow Burberry always fits me perfectly. There's no tailoring really required, which is rare for me.
I don't shop by brand loyalty at all. I'm just drawn to what I like when I shop.
I've always aligned myself with a more modern, European fit. I maintain that fit is the thing that makes or breaks an outfit. Good tailoring trumps designer and price any day.
It's never good to have those players injured, the top players on the team. I hope that Peter is well when the tournament starts and he will be very excited about playing.
