I think our guys are getting more accustomed to it (the new rules) and we'll see what we can do with it.
He's just a great human being and a wonderful talent on the ice. It was just a thrill to be in the same dressing room as him.
I love it, ... It makes for exciting hockey.
Its a one-year deal but its also a chance to be here for many years to come,
It's a little dusty, ... It's about time. This is great. I'm really excited about it. It's a dream come true.
It wasn't our most spectacular (win). But generally, a good effort.
Allison has really done a great job in the last few games of working the puck down deep,

I had great representatives looking out for my best interests and safety. They just happened to be my parents.
Right now I'm happy to be on the ice anywhere, anytime.
There's always risk. But I'm going to come in and play hard. I want to come in and contribute.
I look forward to proving something to myself and others.
