guy healthy marc maybe periods playing running saw stay three time
It was unbelievable that a guy could do that and stay healthy for that long of a time and play to that caliber, ... I maybe saw it in like bantam, but it's a little different playing three 10-minute periods at running time. It was really unbelievable what Marc did.
chances finish goals guys job older pick pressure score seems
We just have to pick up our game, finish on our opportunities. It seems like a lot of the young guys are getting chances but not finishing. That's our job to finish and score goals and once we do that it'll take pressure off the older guys.
dave fit goal good guy healthy hit jump king played player role star team third throw top tough using
They didn't throw me on one of the top lines, but they didn't keep me out as a healthy scratch, either. I think Dave King and Doug were using me well, and I think it was good development for me. I couldn't think of a better team to come to for a young guy than Columbus. You aren't just going to jump in and be a star player at 18. It's tough to be a star in the NHL. I just fit in and played my role on the third line, and just kind of hit and chipped in with a goal here or there when I could.
great guy ice knows won
He's been a great guy off the ice and on the ice. He's won championships. He knows what it takes.
I used to be a center. When I was 12 years old.
fed great half ice
I was fed up with (the attention) after a half a day. What he has been able to do on and off the ice has been great for our game.
hot tons
We had tons of chances. When you're hot you're hot, and when you're not, you're not.
anybody coming head middle sure
I am sure if I was coming through the middle with my head down, anybody would do the same thing to me.
four game joe mold three
I'd like to play like Joe Thornton does right now. I try to mold my game around his. If you say four years, three years down the road, if I could be where he is, then I'd be pretty happy.
chance left playoff wish
Personally, I wish there were another 30 or 40 (games) left and we had a chance at a playoff spot.
five lost pounds
I lost five pounds over the summer, and I know where they went. Nash has them.
bit came exciting five game lots maybe scoring simple strong tonight
Tonight we were a bit more simple (in our play) and it showed in the score. The scoring came back around tonight. We had lots of chances. Maybe we could have had more than five (goals). But we did play strong tonight. It was an exciting game and we got two points.
came lots maybe
We came back around. We really had lots of chances. Maybe we could have had more than five. But we did play strong.
stay
It's part of the game, it's an injury. I've got to stay positive.
