Sometimes, things are very bad, but you keep fighting. I'm happy for him. He deserves it.
I am happy for it. Look at the great players here in the past 80 years.
We've had such a great year and we don't want to give it away. Why? It just happened. We're not happy with the way we played. We have to play better in the playoffs and we have two games to go to get us there.
I'm happy for him - the way he's playing, he truly deserves it,
It was huge. We haven't played very well lately. But I'm happy we found a way to win.
When I'm not happy, I can't play. That's just the way I am.
It would take a miracle (to play). It's feeling better, but there's too much pain.
It was very special for me. I had so much time to look around and put the puck where I wanted to.
I've been playing with Marty for a long time. He knows where I'm going to be and I know where to look for him.
I've been on some hot streak lately. Hopefully, I can play the same way in the Olympics, but hopefully I can play even better when I come back after the Olympics. I go to represent my country, but my job is to play good for the New York Rangers .
The way I saw it from the outside, there was always pressure on the New York Rangers, for the GM to make moves. It was kind of ... necessary,
The way I look at it, home-ice advantage or no home-ice advantage, if we're going to play like that in the playoffs, we're going to lose anyway.
The way I feel right now, he may have a day off tomorrow. He will have an easy day. But that's okay. I might be back next week.
First place is good for everybody. It's good for the owners, for the fans, for the players. It's always nice to play at home and not be traveling.
