I think there was a big transition in Canada, having younger guys being part of Team Canada now. I think it's nice we had a chance to perform with each other. At least you don't come in and it's a brand-new atmosphere. Now Team Canada has been doing these pre-Olympic training camps in the summer also, where we got together. I think everybody's really anxious to see each other again.
The last two days to get four points is a great feeling. All year we haven't been able to come back much with a pulled goalie so its nice to make it happen.
It's kind of nice to have (a shutout) on (Stevens') night. We played a tough opponent. It was a playoff atmosphere out there. It's a great day for Scott and it became a great day for us at the same time.
These were big games for us. It's nice to see us dominate them.
It's definitely nice to see two of my teammates along with me in the starting lineup, ... It's something we're really excited about. ... When you see three guys on the same team at the All-Star game, it's pretty amazing.
It was a good experience for me just to meet him. He's a real gentleman, a nice guy. There's not a bad thing I could say about the guy.
Definitely, it would be nice. That's what I'm planning to do. ... It's not something I'm going to regret all of my life. But it's going to be nice if we're able to do it. We know there's a lot of work ahead of us to get it done.
I think he got caught in a tough situation. He won us a Stanley Cup, took us to a Game 7 and gets fired the middle of the following year. It wasn't really justified that he got fired, but it happened and knowing we've had that kind of success with him, it's nice having him back.
A break here and there made the difference. We wanted to match the way we play on the road with the way we have been playing at home.
Letting in that first goal gave them some wind and it set us back.
Letting in that first goal gave them some wind and it set it us back. On the next shift they scored another one to put us behind the 8-ball.
I'm not worried about it. It's not something I need to have right now.
He was a young guy from Montreal, like me. I idolized him because he came in (to the NHL) so young and he showed he could do the job. He made me see the possibility of doing it myself.
I think it's going to get harder and hard to do. I was in the position to be able to do it. I don't think too many guys are going to be able to do that with the different way the system works now.
