It was nothing he did. I was just trying to spark the team.
elevated good strive trying
The good thing for me is I have more to offer. As an athlete, you are always trying to get better. You always strive to do that. I have elevated my game.
great knew pass push quick
I think I knew he was there; you always know when he's on the ice, he's such a great little player. He (Hecht) made a quick enough pass that I couldn't make the push to get over there.
best country hope knows miss olympics player until waits
That whole country knows they have the best player in the world. They know he couldn't miss the Olympics without at least trying. I just hope he waits until after they play us.
ahead fired goals happen moving process sure upset yelling
I wasn't yelling at anybody. I was as fired up as everybody. We're all upset when goals go in. It's not a finger-pointing thing but the process of moving ahead and making sure it doesn't happen again.
adjust game games guy learned month needs played style
My style is I'm not a guy who needs a whole lot of games. When I was a backup, I played one game a month or two games a month. You have to be ready. That's kind of how I always approached it. I learned to adjust to that.
carry future judge players team unfair
There are some young players in here who are going to carry the team in the future. I think it would be pretty unfair to judge them right now.

Guys are putting the onus on themselves to get this right. It was an ugly win.

He's a great man. I like him a lot. Obviously, stuff will come out. I don't really know the details of it. But I do know he is a good man.

He's just jealous, he's got a big butt. The blades didn't work well for him. That machine was too small for him.
game good next ourselves outright rest win
If we go out and win outright the rest of the way through, we put ourselves in a good position. But we have one game, and that's Thursday. Then after that we have one game, and it's Saturday. Right now, each game is more important than the next and that's the way it's going to be right through the playoffs.
felt good
I felt like I was in a zone, but you never feel good when you give up one more.
great hockey sign
I'd like to think we're better than any one player. I think that's the sign of a great hockey club.
