area forgot outside puck
I just got back from the Olympics. I forgot I can't play the puck outside an area over here.
happiness happy
I'm just not happy with the way I played.
played power score
In a shootout, anything can happen. And right now, we don't score in shootouts. It would have been better for us to score on the power play we had (in overtime) but Auld played pretty well.
came good high might shot speed wide
He's pretty good on breakaways. I thought he was going to go high glove. He came down with speed and I thought he might go wide and he shot right over my glove.
challenged expected handle knew lose saw touched
I don't know if I touched it, but I knew he was pretty shifty, so I kind of challenged him a little bit. Then I poke-checked and saw he was going to lose the handle on it. I don't think he expected that from me.
definitely
I feel better and better every day. It's 1 inch. It's not a lot, but at the same time, it is a lot. It's definitely different.
goal last point stopped taken
I don't think the last goal was the point where things changed, I shouldn't have taken the two minutes, and I should have stopped more pucks,
goal last point stopped taken
I don't think the last goal was the point where things changed, ... I shouldn't have taken the two minutes, and I should have stopped more pucks.
almost athlete chance great honor olympic patriotic
It's a great chance for an athlete to be in an Olympic Games, and its an honor to play for your country. I'm not back often; you almost get more patriotic because you don't live in Switzerland.
tried
I tried to go get (the puck), and it jumped over my stick, and I couldn't play it where it landed.
It wasn't pretty. But it was two points.
hard highest move played puck scoring seen teams time work
It was the first time I had seen them. They work hard and move the puck pretty well. They have one of the highest scoring teams so I know you can't give them too much. I thought we played well for 50 minutes.
beat good played second third
It's good for us to play the way we played in the second and third period, I mean, we can beat anybody.
goals nice
It was never one of my goals for this year, ... Sure, it would be nice to make it, but that's the way it is.
