I took time off last break and I was horrendous when I came back. I took nine or 10 days off and I was horrendous. I was just trying to get out there and feel the puck. I know it's not the same (shot) releases (with the Mechanics) or the way the guys shoot it here, but it's real close.

I was hoping to feel a lot better,

I was probably around 50 (percent) when I came back (the first time). I just wanted to play. Things were going well. We were on a roll and I just wanted to get back in there. I couldn't afford to take time off.

I was shocked. I was looking forward for him. Probably would have gone low blocker backhand. But I was looking for him, especially when we went into extra shooters, I thought for sure.

I was terrible tonight. The guys played great. I was fighting the puck the whole night. It seemed like I was getting blinded by the last second. I just wasn't on my game tonight. You score five goals, we should have won in regulation.

I would have rather just kept on playing straight through. The time off is nice, but you don't want to lose the timing, stuff like that.

I'd like to get it going right now. I think about it all year. It's what you build for. I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't thinking about it in the back of my mind every day.

I'd like to keep playing. We're playing so well. I'd like to keep playing, but that's the way it goes. The guys will be ready to go.
|
I'm just going to go and get some work done down there and wait for the call to come back. I'm going to play (Friday) and see how I feel and maybe play Saturday.

In baseball, they come back and start over the next day after a rainout, even if it's 4-0. But this is the way the NHL wanted it.

In double overtime, when their goalie stands on his head, we're lucky to get a win. I thought we played a great game from the get-go and all the guys in this room played a great game all around.
|
In my first five years, I was out of shape, and I never got an opportunity to play. That's why I was stuck in the minors for 10 years.

It changes from day to day. It'll probably stay like that.

It comes down to a skills competition and their skill is better than mine.

It doesn't matter unless you play well.
