That's not how you'd want to write it up. But we'll take it.

That's tough. You like to have those timeouts to get a minute or two rest, so we keep our shifts shorter to keep guys fresh. It makes it a quicker game because there are more changes.

The (NHL) game now is the closest thing we've ever had to the Olympics. Hopefully it will make us better in the Olympic Games.

The All-Star Game is a great event. There is so much to do and all of the players enjoy the events as much as the fans. Having the game here in Dallas will be wonderful. That will definitely make for a great time.

The calls were made because we were out of position. We were chasing the puck all day long and that's not a recipe for success.

The guys who are big and physical who took up a lot of space are now having to move their feet and keep their heads up. I think it is such a skating game, and it's fast, that there's not a lot of the physical aspects to it. It makes the game better and a lot more fun to watch. It's about positioning on the ice and being able to skate. You've got to get into body position or you're going to be left behind.

The name doesn't roll off your tongue. But they played a mistake-free game. ... No one should be taken lightly in this tournament.

The rule changes have had a big impact in getting the game back to where it's enjoyable to watch, enjoyable to play in and enjoyable for the fans, too.

The tough part is that you feel like we deserve a better fate. The way we've been playing, with the type of urgency ... the skating has been there. It's exactly what we wanted to do. But it's a fine line over here.

Their country doesn't exactly roll off the tongue like a great hockey nation. But they did play a mistake-free game.

Then you're off to the races.

There are no more $9 million players.

There are some questions about who goes and who doesn't, but that just means we have more depth than we ever have, ... I think this can be a very good team.

There was a lot of game to be played. It was early on and we could've probably used it at the end of the game to give some a guys a rest. Ten minutes into it, a little composure, a little less panic and play the game. There's 50 minutes left in the game.

There was a lot of loose coverage in our zone. Guys got beat to the net. There's some little things that we got away with and tonight it caught up with us.
