chance coming four lost people respect team turned winning year
The first four years I was there, we lost a lot and people weren't coming out to see us and people did not respect our team. Now we have turned it around. Now we are a competitive team and we are winning every year and we have a chance to keep it going.
fight ice love tired
I love it. There's no clutching and grabbing, you have more ice and you don't get as tired having to fight through.
build exciting fan good knew month people watch
It was pretty exciting. The month of August, every day there was something new. We knew it was going to be like that because there were 300-something people not signed. ... It makes it exciting for the people. And the more exciting it is, the more they'll come to the game, the more they'll watch it on TV. That's how you build a fan base. I thought it was good for the game.
cool excited game last people raise though wants year
Everyone wants to go see that Oct. 5 game (against Carolina) to raise the banner. It's pretty cool to see how (excited) the city's been, even though we had a year off last year, people are just as excited or even more.
brad cup experience forget great known playing since stanley winning
I've been through a lot with them, winning the Stanley Cup and playing in the World Cup together. I've known Brad since I was 14 so to be part of this with him, it's going to be a great experience and we'll never forget it.
chances five game good none
Things were going in, that's the way it went tonight, and we need to keep it going because it's a long season. It's really frustrating after a game and you've had five good chances and none of them are goals, but things went in tonight.
played win
It's kind of the same thing when we played Calgary. It's a win at a time. We're pretty confident.
boost confidence good net
It's good to boost your confidence a little bit. The net was getting really small. But the most important thing, we got that win.
dvd final game gets minute puck remind seems start watch yelling
It still seems unbelievable to me. I'll watch the DVD of Game 7 and it gets in the final minute and I start yelling at the screen: 'What are you doing? Get the puck out!' And then I have to remind myself, 'Wait, it's OK, we win.'
behind hit trying
It started with Philly, trying to hit their 'D' and play behind their 'D,' ... It's been working and I am going to keep working at it.
looking next sure win worry
We're just looking ahead. We have to worry about what we do and not the other teams. I think we'll be fine, we just have to make sure that we win the next game.
anyone good surprising top
He's one of the top goalies in the league, no doubt. I don't think he's surprising anyone with how good he is.
buzz describe
I don't know how to describe it. The buzz is unbelievable,
definitely hitting late
He's the one that instigated it by hitting me late after a goal. I definitely don't think I should get suspended.
