There's a good chance this will be my last. But I feel very fortunate to have a chance to play for medals in this tournament. For any athlete having a chance to be at an Olympics is such a tremendous opportunity.
I thought we played as well as we've ever played here.
I've felt pretty good the last month, both physically and skating, but for me, it's more about timing and bearing down around the net. Tonight, I was more patient with the puck.
It was disappointing how last night ended up. Still, we should have had a better effort than we did tonight.
You never know in a tournament like this. The margin is so close.
Not as long as I have Gary (Roberts) standing next to me.
I learned to respect Daniel over the years. He's a fine player.
Goal scoring hasn't been there this year for me. I don't know why, but tonight, everything seemed to work. I hope to keep it up for the stretch.
I've told Tomas already if you see me coming, move over.
Some nights the game is easy and many nights you wonder what's going on.
I feel like I'm skating and all that, but I feel the timing is not there. I certainly don't have the goals (four in 17 games) that I want.
My job is to make sure we keep performing.
I don't think there's an issue of guys (players) not knowing what's legal and what's not.
It would be nice for the last game of the season at least to have our full lineup.
