He has tons more skills than I do, ... I've never seen anybody put so much time into practice and create the skills he has. |
He's unbelievable, a great player. That's all I know, |
His game is not about the points, it's an all-around game, ... He goes hard, hits and bangs, and he wants to get dirty, too. He's entertaining to watch. |
I know I could be better, but it's going to take some time. |
I think I'm ready to go. Now it's up to the coach. |
I think we're kind of underdogs when we play them, and people didn't expect too much from us. Everybody is behind us in Finland, and I don't think there's pressure. |
I try to do many things, score and hit, be a versatile player, ... I only have one gear and I play as hard as I can. |
I'm going to improve. |
Of course I'm not happy with the one goal and no assists, |
There's about 50 guys in camp. Some play some games, some play others. I don't think it was anything else. It was just what the coach decided. |
We have to avoid the penalties. It's too easy to fall behind big with them. You make a few mistakes and you're down two or three goals. |
You never know what will happen during the season. I played center a lot when I was younger. It's not a big adjustment. |
