Rick DiPietro Olympic Quotations

I think we've been pretty good defensively since the Olympic break. It's been good team defense.

We have a long road until the Olympic break, and hopefully we can keep getting those wins, ... It's one game, and I'm sure it's going to help me out a little bit. But at the end of the day I've still got 40 more before the break.

You don't want to get pulled in a game whether you make the Olympic team or not.

Anytime you walk around the corner, all you ever hear about is Mike and the '80 Olympic team. This group of guys, we have a strong feeling of pride in playing for our country.

I'm from the same town (Winthrop, Mass.) as Mike Eruzione, so every time you walk around the corner that's all you hear about is Mike and the '80 Olympic team. I think this group of guys has a strong feeling of pride about playing for our country.
