We're a strong union, but we are frustrated with the lack of communication, the lack dialogue and negotiation by the NHL,

We have no confidence in our ability and no confidence that we are doing it right. We just made too many mistakes. We are afraid of failure and doing something wrong.

against circus counteract defend half hitchcock jacques ken last line office red sitting system systems trying work year
I think it's going to be a circus for them. I know Ken Hitchcock was sitting in his office for the last year and a half trying to come up with a system to defend against the no red line (two-line pass). So look for him to come up with something. I know in Minnesota, Jacques is trying to do the same thing. It's interesting to see what's going to work. We're going to have to work in a lot of systems to try to counteract no red line.

I think they were holding the fact I haven't played in the last two World Cups against me. I'm a lot better player than my points indicate. I'm one of the guys that have (got) the USA to where it is today.
arenas easier fans free game hear knowing lower money owners paying people players prices sit stuff taking ticket watch
The owners can sit there and do giveaways and lower ticket prices to get the fans back to the game knowing that what they are really doing is taking it out of our pockets, ... It's important to get people back into the arenas to watch hockey, but it is a lot easier to do when (the owners) know they still get money back because they are taking it out of our paycheck. In essence, the players are paying for all the giveaways and free stuff that the owners are doing. Which is all well and good, but you don't hear about it.

Playing with Cammalleri and Frolov, I have to work a little harder, ... They're speedy.
