Maybe if we would have anybody good on the power play that was right-handed, he wouldn't get a chance to play there. It's about opportunity. |
Maybe it would be better not to risk (injury), but I'm not going to question what I did. I'm going to do everything I can to be back to help. If I can't, it's over. But I believe we can (win the series). |
Maybe we are not good enough yet. Maybe we're not there. Maybe it shouldn't surprise anybody. I thought we played good 5-on-5; the power play and the penalty kill, that's where we made our mistakes. Could we have won the game? Yes. But we lost it. I don't think we are worse than they are. Maybe we're not as talented. |
Monday night, we weren't thinking. Tonight, the two goals they scored were not because of mental breakdowns. They were goals that just happened. |
Most of the time it's open. It's up to you if you want to take the risk or not. |
Most of the time, the game is decided by one goal, one mistake, one good save. I feel like this is not going to change in the playoffs. |
Most people have friends, but no money. I have the opposite. I don't have a chance to talk to my real friends, the ones I've had since I was five years old. Sometimes I wish I could bring Czechoslovakia to America. Then I would be the happiest guy in the world. |
My goal was to play in the NHL, because that is the best hockey in the world. |
Nobody believed we could do any damage in this league and I think that worked to our advantage. |
Nothing happened. The coach put me out there for the last 20 seconds, but I didn't even try. I just stood there. That's not what we wanted to do, embarrass the team. |
Of course it will be a different game because we didn't play in such a long time. It's a different game on the smaller ice. The first period it will be difficult to try and get our timing. After that, it should be fine. |
Of course it's a big honor. The Rangers are an original six team. A lot of great players played hear -- Wayne Gretzky and Mark Messier -- a lot of great players. It's a big honor to me. |
Of course it's nice to be in first, but there's 30 games to go. To be honest with you, I'm not upset. |
Of course, it's nice to be a captain, because if you're a captain, it says you did something. But for me, it's not as big a deal as winning the Stanley Cup. That's my goal. Not to become the captain. |
Of course, nobody is going to pick us. |
