We'll be able to make a long pass because the red line is out,
It is beneficial for us in terms of getting us going. When you get so many superstars from different backgrounds everyone has to gel and sometimes when you play good teams right off the bat like in Salt Lake, everyone wants to do their own thing and it gets tougher and tougher. I think that happened in Salt Lake, I don't think we were really prepared to play as a team early on.
I think there was a big transition in Canada, having younger guys being part of Team Canada now. I think it's nice we had a chance to perform with each other. At least you don't come in and it's a brand-new atmosphere. Now Team Canada has been doing these pre-Olympic training camps in the summer also, where we got together. I think everybody's really anxious to see each other again.
I saw everybody in front of me, and their eyes were going crazy. It was a scary five or six seconds. They finally told us there was a mechanical problem and they couldn't get the plane in the air.

We got back to the old Devils that everyone wanted to change in hockey. People said they didn't want these types of games anymore. Now we are doing it again, and I'm just hopeful we'll do it again when it counts.

(That) was as bad a call as they could make. I have never heard of incidental contact in my crease. That was as bad a call as they could make.
That was the first thing we said today when we walked into the locker room. They spoiled our party when we were doing so well and these guys were doing well and we wanted to stick it to them the way they did to us.
For the first time in five or six days I was able to use it.
He's not the quickest guy out there. He does it with experience. And you can't buy experience.
I could have stayed in. It was my choice. When the team is struggling, why be in there for the sake of being there?
