Benoit Allaire

I think you just focus day to day, week to week. He's been the first goalie in the past. He won't lose his focus. He'll play another 10 years in the NHL. Game-sharp is just puck after puck (in practice). Since his last game, he's done two hours each day on ice. I think it was a good spot on the road. Sometimes, when you've stayed out a long time, it's better on the road.

Dwane Casey

I think you have to have a focus on the road, a mental toughness on the road, that I think we're trying to find. That's the story of our season.

Aaron Boone

He's a good dude. I found that out right away. Obviously, he's going to be a good player, and he knows how to act, too. I want to be there to help him out. But I don't want to overkill him with Johnny Veteran stuff. We're all men here and we're all teammates here. Plus, I like him.

Peter D. Mitchell

He said, 'I can send you to jail. I know where your mother lives and your brother. How would you like there to be drugs found in your mother's house?'

He's a senior and he wanted to finish, but unfortunately the trainers didn't want him to get up until they found out if it was muscle or bone.

Justin Scott

He's a very good player, a very good player. I found out he couldn't go right, so toward the end of the game I tried to make him go right. We tried to go around screens and help a lot.

Kyle Lowry

He shot horrible -- not horrible, but not as well -- last night, and we still found a way to win. This is what this team is made of. If everything is not going our way, we still are going to find a way to get the win.

Paul Polzin

We've got to go back to the 1970s to get three strong years of 4 percent growth.

Red Auerbach

To be a successful coach you should be and look prepared. You must be a man of integrity. Never break your word. Don't have two sets of standards. Remember you don't handle players-you handle pets.

Jim Knight

There are so many things that we try before we ever go to court. It's the last step, and we don't like to do it, but there needs to be consequences.

Justin Gray

I think (the fans) are going to talk about it all the time just because they know probably what we could've done with the team from last year. But that's last year.

It is fundamentally different from the last time we restated, primarily because the scope is a lot narrower.

Salman Rushdie

As I look back, I feel a touch of pride at my younger self's dedication to literature, which gave him the strength of mind to resist the blandishments of the enemies of promise. The sirens of ad-land sang sweetly and seductively, but I thought of Odysseus lashing himself to the mast of his ship, and somehow stayed on course.
