Cassie Campbell Quotations

We have to get her to move and that's the way we have to beat her.

If we can fake a shot, make a pass and just get her moving side to side I think that's where we can beat her.

The people there were just awesome. It's like a 5,000-person town and we had 2,500 people come out for the game. They had scarves in the windows saying Welcome Canada. Kids would run up to us on the street with pieces of paper to sign for autographs.

Our bathroom window is covered by the flag.

We have all the pieces of the puzzle. Hopefully all those pieces fit together tomorrow. Right now, I think we're the best we can be.

Why is women's hockey the only sport that sort of gets put down for excellence? Why should we stop and not get better?

We were the favorites for a reason, and we showed exactly why. We faced much more adversity four years ago, but we were just as determined and just as focused this time. It's really even sweeter when you can come through as the favorite.

We wanted to get to the gold-medal game. We're there and now we're going to prepare and do everything in the next two days to be the best we can be.

The score may not show it, but it was a tough game. This is why we came, to get to the medal round. But there's only one color medal we want. Now we've taken the next step toward it.

The score may not show it, but it was a tough game.

After she lets in a couple of goals early, she has a tendency to fall apart, so that's what we're going to try to do.

This is beautiful, and it was just a great team effort to bring home another gold medal for our country. I know there are so many people back home who are proud of us. I'm so proud of every single player on our team.

They were crazy about it. It's like we were soccer stars in Italy. They would ask for autographs, and we'd go into a restaurant and they would spoil us, try to give us wine. So the spirit here is alive and kicking.

They had to take responsibility for themselves. This is huge for the Swedish program, and maybe the Finns can see some light, as well.

There was one (boys) team that was maybe a bit obnoxious. You'll always get the one team where a couple of guys don't agree with women's hockey.

It's a passion these girls have and our staff has and Mel (coach Davidson) has for the game I think no other country understands yet. We're born with hockey sticks in our hands. When they get a taste of winning like we've had, they'll understand what we do on a regular basis.

It's kind of sad. This team won't be together again. So many of us have grown up together. We've learned so much from each other. Hard to think of it as being over.

It's kind of sad that the team won't be the same.

That goes back to our leadership and it was a great group that time. It wasn't just me.

It's Wayne Gretzky. No matter what he does it wouldn't have bothered me. He's a great man.

I'm just going to enjoy this right now. This is beautiful, and it's just a great team effort and brings home another gold for our country.

I don't wish a loss on anyone. Whether we played the U.S. in the final or Sweden, it didn't really matter to us. I know how it feels to lose. We lost last year and it's not very fun, you work so hard. I definitely feel for them, there's no question.
