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.
Yeah. It might be the best league in the world besides the NHL.
We had a lot of chances. Sometimes it might look easy like tonight and other times it's really tough. That's just hockey.
I might be more excited than I was before the Olympics. Our goal is to make the playoffs, but we don't want to just make the playoffs for the first round and go home. I want to be in the best condition I've ever been in my life, to know when a crucial time comes, I'm ready.
I got my advantage, other people got their advantage, ... I'm not that quick. But I'm 245 (pounds) and I'm not going to get tired that quick. I might not be good in the first, but I think I'm going to be good in the third.
I did what I had to do. Play as hard as I can until the last minute. I knew we weren't going to win the hockey game ... It might be a long series. Every shift can mean a lot later on.
It's not a good situation that we are in. Everybody knows how important these next four games are at home. It might be our season. That's the way I look at it. I thought we started playing better in the last two games. It's just that the results are not there.
We've got five months before the season starts. Hopefully, if there is any surgery it's not going to be complicated and I might start practicing next month.
There's a big chance I might be going to Moscow.
Old people, don't watch it because you might die just watching it.
I'm glad they did it because we can learn. Something might happen in the playoffs and we have to learn from that -- how to handle that.
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.
