He is one of the league's most gifted players and a proven winner who will bring tremendous experience, speed and playmaking abilities to our lineup (and) still has a tremendous skill level and is excited to play. He'll be a terrific addition.

He's a big part of our future and we think he has a chance to make an impact on our team as early as this season.
|
He's as tough as they come. All I know he may be the best conditioned athlete in the league, and that's a pretty good start. There's not a team in the NHL that wouldn't like to have Adam Foote, I can tell you that.
|
He?s a prospect. I feel comfortable calling him a prospect.
|
He?s played really well. I told him (Tuesday) that he has played as well lately as he has played in a long time.
|
I didn't look at the market, I looked at our particular financial situation. I think everyone will look at this as a fair deal.
|
I hope the rivalry starts tonight.
|
I like the job Gerard has done with a healthy team.
|
I like the way he moves.
|
I posed it to him as a challenge. He was successful in Colorado helping them win a championship. Now it is another phase of his career to help us get there.
|
I think we are as good as most teams in the West. When we are healthy we will challenge most teams.
|
I would like to believe it was an unbelievable recruiting job, but I don't think that was the case. We came in under the radar as we like to do.
|
I've got a funny feeling that if Detroit could spend $80 million this year and the Rangers could spend $80 million and Colorado could spend $80 million, I probably wouldn't have him [Foote] here today.
|
It's been a trying weekend because there was a lot of discussion with a lot of teams. I hoped when I put him back on waivers, because of all the discussions I was having with those teams, that someone would take him.
|
It's really unfortunate for him, as a kid you hate to see that, it was an awkward type thing. He's out six weeks.
