deal year
It has been a long year already. It's something I have to deal with. It has nothing to do with (the Olympics).
coming starting
I think we are starting to jell and coming together.
bad dressing fun happen laugh move obviously relaxed room shake start team
That was a lot of fun and that's something we need to start getting into this dressing room a little more. When you go through bad spells, which obviously is going to happen in a season, you have to be able to shake it off, laugh about it and move forward. When this team is relaxed and confident, that's when we play our best.
bit chances luck puck putting
Just getting a bit more puck luck, ... The chances were there. I just wasn't putting them away before.
behind game great kinds players
I think it's great for the game when you get those kinds of players behind the bench,
behind bench continue exciting game great guys hockey hopefully meant players step
I think it's great for the game when you get those kind of players going behind the bench who know the game, know the right way it's meant to be played. Especially with the way hockey is going right now, I think it's exciting and hopefully there are more guys who will step behind (the bench) and continue to do that.
bad felt goal hop
I feel good. We got the goal right off the hop tonight, I felt not bad out there.
expect
I expect nothing but outstanding play from them. Daniel's a 30-goal scorer and Hank's a 60-point guy.
worry
I got enough to worry about with my own team.
both gifted low puck strong
We're pretty much similar. We're both strong guys. He's very gifted with the puck and can make the same play down low as myself.
confidence heads playing winning
We're playing with a lot more confidence and winning does that. I like where our heads are at and we just got to keep with it.
beginning career change defined happened life march rather sure today
Today is a new beginning for me and my family. There's no way I can change what happened in the past, but I'm going to do what I can to make sure my career and my life aren't defined by what happened on March 8, but rather by what I did before and, most importantly, what I do after.
age-and-aging situations teams
We have to smarten up on situations like that. In this day and age, in this league, teams can come back. It's something we're going to have to learn.
game penalties
Unfortunately they had a lot of penalties and you give us that many opportunities we can put a game away.
