approach change hockey percent player regardless tremendous
He is a tremendous hockey player so you've got to know if he is going to play or not. Regardless of him being there 100 percent or not there, it doesn't change the approach of our game.
face finish knowing odds ottawa pick rangers regardless teams three top
We're going to face one of the top three teams, each first in their division, regardless of where you're at. The odds are if we finish sixth, the Rangers will be our first opponent, so that would be pretty exciting. Knowing what the other teams are, Ottawa and Carolina, I don't think there's one you want to pick over the other.
four gain great
Our weekend, to gain these four points, it's a great feeling.
definitely everybody far game pinpoint playing price sharp
I think we're definitely not sharp as far as my game and everybody defensively. I think it's a combination of a lot of things why defensively you're not successful. I don't think you can pinpoint it to one person. As a group, we're just not sharp and have been playing the price a lot.
surprise
I think we'll surprise a lot of people.
everybody exciting learns watch
I think we'll be really fast, we have a lot of speedy forwards. I think we're going to be big like other teams, but I think it will be exciting to watch when everybody learns to play with the new rules.
happy
I think we're pretty happy to get out of here with one point.
bat beneficial early gel gets good happened prepared salt superstars team teams terms tougher wants
It is beneficial for us in terms of getting us going. When you get so many superstars from different backgrounds everyone has to gel and sometimes when you play good teams right off the bat like in Salt Lake, everyone wants to do their own thing and it gets tougher and tougher. I think that happened in Salt Lake, I don't think we were really prepared to play as a team early on.
anxious camps canada chance guys nice perform summer team training transition younger
I think there was a big transition in Canada, having younger guys being part of Team Canada now. I think it's nice we had a chance to perform with each other. At least you don't come in and it's a brand-new atmosphere. Now Team Canada has been doing these pre-Olympic training camps in the summer also, where we got together. I think everybody's really anxious to see each other again.
everybody eyes finally five front mechanical plane problem saw scary six
I saw everybody in front of me, and their eyes were going crazy. It was a scary five or six seconds. They finally told us there was a mechanical problem and they couldn't get the plane in the air.
caught fired following game gets happened justified knowing middle nice stanley success took tough won
I think he got caught in a tough situation. He won us a Stanley Cup, took us to a Game 7 and gets fired the middle of the following year. It wasn't really justified that he got fired, but it happened and knowing we've had that kind of success with him, it's nice having him back.
depends
It all depends on where we're at. Probably one or two I'll miss.
approach change game great
I think it's going to be a great possibility. But I don't think it's going to change our approach to the game one way or the other.
answer asking brush compete funny great highest highlight lives move olympics opportunity people playing standard time waste
I think it's funny that we have to answer these things (about Gretzky). After all, the highlight of our lives is playing in the Olympics right now. It's a great opportunity to compete at the highest standard of hockey. So for people to waste their time asking these questions, we just brush them off and move on.
