We're going to miss him in these last 10 games. I think Jason had a great year for us. That's sports, you can never tell what is going to happen. I think all teams go through injuries in the season, but it is not why we are where we are in the standings. |
We're in a position where we have to cut down on the breakdowns in our own end right through the whole ice. And stay out of the penalty box. |
We're not generating enough chances to score goals but I couldn't tell you why. |
We're part of a generation of players where there was a lot expected and we never delivered. This is very special. |
We're still alive. We have another game (Sunday) night and we'll have to bounce back. There's not much left to talk about when it comes to what we've got to do and what we're looking for and how we're going to do it. |
We're still going to have to skate, ... We're going to have to cycle the puck down low, where we should be strong, but at the same time, we have to be able to move. |
We've got a lot of teams around us in the standings and behind us, so every game is big. There is no doubt in the locker room that we can make the playoffs. |
We've had injuries before, but we have to play through them. |
We've had our struggles this year but we're going to do everything we can to make it in to the playoffs. I'm very proud of this group. |
When I look with both my eyes it's not far from what it was before, ... My left vision isn't as good as my right eye but it's not where it's going to make a difference on the ice. |
When that (missing the playoffs) happens a lot of time there are changes. As players and coaches we all understand the rules of the game. We'll see what happens. |
When you played New Jersey before, it's been really tough to forecheck them because Martin is out there playing the puck every time you dump it in. Hopefully (now) you can put a little more pressure on them. |
Who knows, it might be good for me. It's fun to get a chance to represent your country. |
Why not? I hope it's going to help me the rest of my season, this tournament, and I hope the rest of the Maple Leafs here that are playing are going to enjoy it and come back with a fresh mind. |
Winning Olympic gold against the best players in the world is certainly my greatest moment in my hockey career. But hopefully I can get into the Stanley Cup Finals with Toronto, too. |
