We're here for a little bit of a tour for four or five days, just to get together and kind of talk about the season. The players everybody is talking about are all playing well, and decisions are very difficult. No matter what we do, there is going to be a controversy. |
We're in a tough situation because of teenage children, and then we have a 2-year-old and a 5-year-old, so my family and my responsibilities is sort of a juggle. |
We're not going to press the panic button. . . . (but) we know we need to add some depth to our team and we have some holes, there's no question about that. |
We're not sure, ... We're not going to mess with it. (Joseph's) situation is sort of day-to-day. I can't tell you when he's going to be back. He felt better (Tuesday), so maybe Thursday or Saturday (vs. Detroit). |

We're not the only family that has ever (faced) tragedy. It's part of life. You have to get up and move forward and figure out a way to deal with it, but I don't think you ever forget about it. It's been hard, probably the worst three weeks I've had in a long time. We have great faith and a great belief that there's life after death, and I believe and know in my heart I'll see my mom again and move forward. |
We're probably a little more sensitive to those scenarios since guys didn't play last year, so I told him not to play the second and third, ... It's just precautionary. |

We've been working with our defensemen that when they get the puck, don't look to pass but take it to the net and try to score. |

We've got a long way to go, let's be honest. We know we've got an uphill battle, but nobody's going to quit. |
We've got a lot of work ahead of us. We've got to win over a lot of people, ... But in time we hope we will. It's a great sports city. It's a wonderful city, a beautiful building. If we play hard, people are going to start supporting us more and more every day. |

We've talked about this for it seems like months. When the team plays disciplined, plays smart and plays the way that they need to play to be successful, we have some success. |
What I did as a hockey player, nobody can ever take it away, ... It's done, it's over. I loved it. I had more fun at the games than anybody. Now I have this new chapter. We'll see in time what happens. |
