“But I've learned in the past years that I play my best when I just prepare properly. I think I can bring a lot of experience. I have a lot of speed. And with the new rule changes, I think that it'll probably be an advantage for me.”
“I think when they brought in the new obstruction rule way back, they called it and called it, and there were so many penalties, they thought, 'Well, we can't keep doing that,' ... They backed off, and then there was a big gray area and it got worse. I think they have to stick with it; they have to call it.”
“I said before that I felt I could score 15 to 20 goals, ... But with scoring up the way it is, that might not be enough. I probably need to score 20, 25 to really help.”
“I think the guys are getting the sense of what it's going to take to win games, and limiting our turnovers and getting some better chances, ... I think we're learning a little bit from that.”
“I was fairly deflated. As for the rest of the guys, I'm sure they weren't excited. But you know what, they said 'Let's not let that beat us' and we battled back.”
“They showed us quite a bit of stuff ... the insides of the Army and what's going on all around the world - in Iraq. Having seen their side of it, there's so much more going on than what you see on the news. It was pretty educational for us.”
“I think it's part of the business. The only thing that's bothersome is the way you approach your thought process of 'What has happened here?' You're like maybe you could do more if your name's in the trade mill. You feel like maybe you failed some people here.”
“It's logical thinking to think he could move a player he can move to get something, or else at the end of the year he doesn't get anything. There's a ton of guys in that boat.”
