(There's) nothing better than playing in a rink where the fans are loud and making a bunch of noise. It makes it a more exciting, more intense game, one you like to be part of. How do we know until we get there (how things will be)? I'm optimistic that hopefully (the fans) will be able to forget about the dark days we put them through for a whole year and come back and enjoy it.

After a discussion with team doctors yesterday, it was recommended I undergo surgery on my knee in the very near future. I discussed the situation with Hockey Canada president Bob Nicholson and came to the extremely difficult decision to withdraw from the Olympic Games and have surgery next week.

After a discussion with team doctors yesterday, it was recommended I undergo surgery on my knee. Representing Canada in international competition has always been a privilege I take very seriously, which made this decision extremely difficult.

Being in the penalty box as much as we were is tough. But we've got to find a way to stay out and to do a better job of killing penalties.

Everybody is cranked up and that's why it's so intense and so much fun to be out there.

Great or brutal. If we want to get back to winning games, the PK has to do a better job.

He was a huge reason we were able to win three championships. I don't think I could have asked for anything better for me, to learn from a guy and play with a guy like that.

He's ready to shoot, he knows what Thornton is out there to do and he knows what to do.

I don't have that good a memory of it, but if he said it, it must be true. Just going the full season of competing together for the same team will be special for us.

I don't know if his skill and ability were more than I expected, but the three goals were.
|
I just don't think we had it right where it needed to be, as far as our intensity and attitude out there. The playoffs are tough. Nothing's ever given to you, and maybe we thought something was going to be given to us today.

I just think he's playing well. With the puck, he's making some nice plays. Sometimes they're simple plays, but a lot of times they're the right thing to do and the best play.

I knew their goalie was caught way out of the net, and I knew we'd have guys there. I was just trying to get it out front and I got a little bit of luck there.
|
I was trying to get it up in the corner. How it traveled into the net, I can't tell you.
|
I'm surprised. I thought it would be just us out there ... but I underestimated Canadians a bit, I guess.
