Janne Niinimaa Quotations

With the new rules, you can't hit anybody anyway.

My first three years, I did not have one other Finn on my team. I can tell you, I already feel more at home here.

Obviously those names are not at the level of the names we lost, if you look at them on paper, ... But they are fully qualified.

If they're going to be calling it all the way through the playoffs, it will be huge. Some of the games can turn into chaos right to the box. A team has to stay composed.

He's a good friend of mine, and I know how hard he worked to come back from his knee injury. Plus, he's in the right place. He's one of those guys who needs to enjoy the game. He needs that, and you can see it. He's enjoying himself.

We made it hard on ourselves again. We let them come back... but we battled back and got the win. We worked hard and pulled together.

He's our hidden weapon, I'm going to say that, ... He's got all the tools. He just needs to put them together.

I feel bad we didn't play better in front of him. He was great.
