Along Quotes
He has rehabbed very well so far and if it continues the way it's going we're anticipating maybe practicing in the next four to five weeks with the team.

Beat Quotes
We can expect a much better hockey team. It's very obvious that they want to come in here with a purpose, that they want to make a statement about where they belong, where they should be ranked. You can be sure that after the way we beat them the first time, they're going to be coming for blood.

But we never got a piece of him all night and we have to set that stage that way and we didn't. He got the hat trick and he deserved it.

Certainly Quotes
He's a special hockey player. Early in his career, he looked like this. I don't know what happened in a few of his middle years, but certainly this year, he's found the love of the game again. We stood around and watched him make a lot of plays. We gave him too much respect and too much room.

Awareness Quotes
He's just so creative in practice. He's one of the fastest, if not the fastest guy in college hockey. He's just got such a good sense of awareness and hockey sense. You've got to realize that he's young and it's tough coming in as a freshman. Even as good as you are, it's an adjustment. He's really caught on here the last couple of weeks and he's just going to get better as the season goes on.

Couple Quotes
He's definitely a talented guy. Right now, he's been put in a tough situation. He's shown a lot in his first couple of games but there's so much pressure on our team right now. He's had to step in and play well right away and I think he'd done that. He's got a lot of skill, he's a pretty fast guy and he has a lot of hockey sense.

Brings Quotes
He's earned all the ice time he is getting. Guillaume has good size and skates well. He's also a gifted hockey player who brings a lot of intangibles to the game. If there is a fault, it's that he tries too hard. That's only because he wants to be the one who makes the difference every game.

Athletes Quotes
Hockey players are doing everything that other athletes do and more, but we're doing it on ice. We've got to be able to avoid body contact like basketball and football players, and we've got to be able to handle this puck with our sticks?while we're moving on eight-inch steel blades. Hockey uses every single muscle in the body, without exception.

Example Quotes
Hockey is the ultimate team sport. You have to have all of the pieces working together. My example is I always use is Wayne Gretzky. He would often be in front of the net and get the puck from two guys who were getting the heck pounded out of them in the corner. They were making a lot less than him. They get bloody. Gretzky puts the puck in the net and he gets the glory.

Biggest Quotes
We lost our composure for six or seven minutes and that cost us. It doesn't surprise me (because) that's been our biggest issue all year is having discipline and having composure. This time of year, it's magnified and you have to be even stronger and you've got to have a stronger will and stay in the hockey game.

We're just happy to have him back. He's such a great kid and such a great hockey player. He's going to play a huge role for the Detroit Red Wings over the next four years for sure.
