I said if I felt I can play, I was going to play, and I didn't hurt too much. Hopefully next game it will feel even better.
Until we win some games, of course things are slipping away. I said all year long, and I don't want to make it as an excuse, but anytime somebody goes down from our first two lines, it's tough for us to replace ... We don't play the same way for whatever reason. I just hope it's the injuries.
Until we win a game, of course it's slipping away. We don't play the same way for whatever reason. I just hope it's the injuries. When we have all our guys back healthy, then I can answer that.
Hopefully we have good trainers who can get him back.
He's been the best goalie in the league for such a long time, for the last 10 years maybe. Plus, he looks like he even gets better as the games get tougher. We have to shoot the puck and hope for the best, hope that he's going to have a bad game. We just have to hope.
Maybe for some guys it would take a month, hopefully my body is different and heals quick. I'll have to pray a lot and hope for miracles. If the pain lets me play a little bit, I'll be on the ice the first chance I have.
I've been on some hot streak lately. Hopefully, I can play the same way in the Olympics, but hopefully I can play even better when I come back after the Olympics. I go to represent my country, but my job is to play good for the New York Rangers .
They're hot and it's always great to play your best hockey before the playoffs. But it's going to stop somewhere, you know? Nothing lasts forever and hopefully we can stop them. But it's not going to be easy.
It's an honor. And hopefully I'm going to score a lot more. I don't want to stop at 50.
All we needed was one victory or one point and we couldn't do it. You know, for whatever reason, hopefully we can forget everything that happened the last two weeks and move on.
I said that if I could play, I was going to play. I didn't help much and hopefully the next game will be better.
I think the whole league has changed. There are a lot of guys changing teams. It's going to be a different league than ever before.
It is awfully exhausting and devastating. This is sport and sometimes it simply does not work.
I think there's a difference between Ottawa and the Islanders right now.
