It's like when your wife is chasing you every day, everywhere you go and you want to have freedom.
Hopefully, I can keep playing like this in the Olympics. And hopefully, I can be even better for the Rangers after the break.
It doesn't matter. I'm gonna try everything I can to be back ... (but) we can do it (without me).
I felt like we had enough chances in the second period to win the game, easily. We just didn't do it. ... We couldn't score. That's the problem we've got now, nothing else.
If they let me shoot, they let me shoot. That's fine with me, ... They covered everybody else. I'll take it any time.

He backed up his words. I respect that.
First, we have to make the playoffs. Any point right now is huge.

It's an honor. And hopefully I'm going to score a lot more. I don't want to stop at 50.
