Tie Domi Quotations

The process has to be conducted a little more properly. Trevor and Ted have worked hard on this but they were part of the team that cancelled the season, too. It's not up to those guys to make decisions. It's up to us 700 guys.

The process has to be conducted a little more properly.

Let me fight your toughest guy; if I win I get a spot on your team.

Maybe he's a little jealous. But I was the guy who had respect for him until he started all this BS about me. He's on the radio for a reason. He doesn't know what's going on in the dressing room ... he's just guessing and that's what bothers me.

If these guys don't get a deal done, there's going to have to be new faces in there,

I don't think it's that we don't want Ted Saskin, I think just the way the whole process was conducted everybody isn't too happy with,

I almost got a puck in the face. That's Caber's passing in practices, just like in a game. He passes those grenades.

Hartley always has had that reputation of being a bush-league coach. And his true colors came out tonight. He doesn't have much respect throughout the league, even from his own players.

I think with the lawyers that are being hired, things will take care of itself, ... There will be a search put on to find who Bob's replacement is and that's the way it should have been done in the first place.

I was a fan of (shootouts) before, but after being on the losing side of it twice, it's pretty disappointing.

I was born into business through my father. I was one of those kids who always wanted to be around his father when he was working. I used to be a fly on the wall when my dad went around. He had plazas, laundromats, that kind of thing. Just not to the extent that I'm doing it.

I was a sports junkie growing up ... my favourite athlete all-time is John McEnroe.

My opinion is that a whole new (executive) committee has to be selected. (One) that hires a professional search team (to find a replacement for Goodenow) and go from there. And Ted can put his name in the hat. This is not about Ted Saskin. It is about doing things properly and 700 guys being happy at the end of the day.

I wish I was on that team and he told me to do something. Because it would probably be the first time somebody sees a fight on the bench.

I was tougher when I was younger so when they tried to get met I threatened everybody,

When you're in the hockey hotbed ... everyone is entitled to their opinion. What bothers me is when it's based on wrong information,

Trevor and Ted have worked hard on this but they were part of the team that cancelled the season, too. It's not up to those guys to make decisions. It's up to us 700 guys. I think that's where the frustration sets in with everybody.

To do this for these kids is special for all of us. I think there's more need than we think, the problems that we have, the gun problems and all that stuff, those are all things that we have to address and there are charities that really need a lot of money.

Everything has to be out in the open now and we have to get this solved.

I spoke to Rob Blake , Chris Pronger , Chris Chelios and Brendan Shanahan last night, I think we all had the same issues about the process. Our whole point was that things weren't done right.

People had their opinions, but I think those critics should be looking in the mirror. It's great to see all three of them impressing. They're living their dream (playing in Toronto) right now.

It's a sad day for hockey, he's one of the greatest players ever. And probably the best teammate ever.

It's not the coaching, it's not the systems, it's not the goaltending; it's a team of guys who have to start playing together and winning some games.

You try to keep on an even keel, which can be tough to do in this market.

It's half-satisfactory, ... For the most part it was never about Ted Saskin, it was always about the process. I have no doubt Ted will be the guy.

It's nice to see them every day. There's a lot of excitement in their eyes.

I'm fairly diversified. I put people together. Real estate. Hotels ... I'm all over the map.

I'm sure Ted will be the guy. I have no doubt he'll be the guy. But I don't know why it had to take a few guys being upset (to do the vote properly).

I met him through mutual friends. Brilliant. I learn a lot just listening to him.

I'll have to look at the tape because everything happened so fast. But it's part of my job to come to the aid of my teammate.

He's pretty shook up. Seeing it happen, we are all pretty shook up.

Am I happy with it? No. Do I agree with it? No. I know what I bring to the team, to the dressing room, and my teammates know.

I told Pat I want to be him for Halloween. I almost got hit and I told Pat I should stop teasing him.

My brother Dash hit me on the head with five textbooks in a gym bag.

I'll still run him on the ice tomorrow.

Early in my career when we went to golf tournaments and charity dinners I noticed businessmen and executives would give the players their cards. Well, they're giving you their cards for a reason. I said to my wife, 'All the guys get these cards and then when they get to the parking lot they rip them up or throw them away. It's really weird.' My wife .. said maybe you should just sign a picture and mail it to them. You know, 'Great playing golf with you,' or whatever. So, I did and lo and behold some of those guys I sent pictures to way back then are now CEOs at big companies.

I have 3,000 penalty minutes. I don't need people dictating to me how to do my job.
