basically hockey since team uncles watched
They actually had a (men's) team that was basically made up of my uncles and my dad. I just watched them since I was a little kid. They are all hockey fanatics.
finding
The puck's just been finding me in the right spots.
haul legs
We got our legs moving. Everyone started skating. You do that they've got to haul you down every once in a while.
body face few guys hopefully move send shots start staying top
We're going to try to send a few guys in there and try to get in his face so he has to move back in the net. He's challenging a lot of shots right now, staying up in the top of the crease. You get a body in there to try to move him back ... and hopefully things will start to go in.
guys nice reached
It was a nice feeling. Not a lot of guys have reached it so it's pretty special.
agent fans hockey school start sure
I've been working with my agent to try to get something set up. One of the things I think I'm going to start doing is a hockey school for sure because they are big hockey fans up there.
joe known opportunity score
I've always known I could score goals. But when Joe (Thornton) came, I got the opportunity to play with him.
anytime crowd gets gives heels jump kinda
That was nice. Anytime you can get and jump on them right away, and get a lead, kinda gets them back on their heels and gives us some momentum, and gets the crowd into it.
looking spot
Most goalies just drop. I was looking for that spot just over his pad.
matter
It doesn't really matter how many, just as long as they go in and we win.
calls ourselves position taking
We were undisciplined. The calls were pretty much one-sided, but we put ourselves in that position by taking those penalties.
ahead best great lucky players since watched
He's a great player. I've watched him since '94, I guess. He's always been one of the best players in the league, so I got lucky to get ahead of him.
great joe obviously player quite record speaks
Obviously our record speaks for itself, the numbers. It's been quite a turnaround. It's great to have a player like Joe on the line.
few maybe ourselves penalties putting time took
We weren't very disciplined; (we) took a few penalties maybe we shouldn't (have). It was pretty one-sided, the (penalty) calling, but at the same time we were putting ourselves in that position.
