year
Obviously, this year I didn't play up to my level, but the year's not over yet.
feeling strength
I'm feeling better, but the strength isn't there and there's still some soreness.
guess hard time twice work
You want to play well and when it's not happening, for sure, you don't like it. It's not time to get down on myself. It's time to work twice as hard and I guess it's working on the details.
committed couple felt games main until
It didn't take long until I felt comfortable. But obviously, until you get a couple of games in and they see that you're really committed and you really want to win, that's the main thing.
felt until
It didn't take long until I felt comfortable.
difference four games good playing season team throughout winning wins
Even throughout this season I've had up and downs, ... But I feel pretty good right now. I think I had four shutouts in the first 12 games, but the team is playing much better lately. And that's a big difference why we are winning some games. The shutouts are just luck. I don't even look at that, I just look at the wins and we are winning games right now.
bounce challenge last played today unhappy
The last game, as a team, myself, I didn't think we played the way we should, ... I was unhappy with the way I played, so today was a big challenge for us to play well and for me to bounce back.
blocking credit fun guys saves scared shots trying
A lot of times they were making some big saves for me. It's all the credit to them. They're not scared of blocking shots. It's fun for a goalie to see guys trying to block as many shots as they can.
free net playing shot
I didn't really know what was going on. I thought about going out of the net and not playing into his game, but then I thought he had the (nerve) to go on the ice, so I let him have a free shot at me.
black doctor eight
I don't feel I have anything to hide. It's not something that I got on the black market. It was a prescription from the doctor for eight years, so I don't feel uncomfortable by anything.
appeal athletes creates decided hearing olympic priority system team year
Some other athletes who had the same drug in their system all went on appeal because it was an Olympic year for them and they all lost. The (appeal) hearing is public, it's long, it creates some distraction for the team and we decided our priority was the NHL.
change guy selling steroids taking
If you look at me with no shirt, if I'm taking steroids then I should change the guy that's selling them to me because it's not working.
goals number sure weak
As a goalie, you don't look at the number of goals, you just make sure there are no weak ones,
confidence fun game next ready
As a goalie, it's fun to see you're always in the game. Right now, our confidence is good, but next game we are going to have to come ready because they are going to come out strong.
