“I'm not interested in adding names, I'm interested in adding hockey players. I signed Teemu because I think he makes us a better hockey team. We're anticipating he'll play on our top six. Certainly, I'm counting on him for top-six ice time and the power play.”
“I'm told his knee is fine. He struggled a bit in his last year at Colorado. With the style we're going to play and the rules, he can play a number of years after this year. It's up to Teemu. I made it clear to his agent we're certainly not looking at this as a one-year thing.”
“We expect Teemu Selanne to be an impact player for us, both on the ice and in the community. His skating and goal-scoring ability should fit nicely with our new style of play.”
“I have said all along all I asked for was a retraction. If this action is successful, any proceeds from it after attorneys' fees will go directly to Canuck Place.”
