I know just about proverb

 I know just about every (Carver) player and I like them all. This wasn't necessarily personal. We just wanted to make it to Birmingham and we didn't want to lose.

 We did a lot of talking. I didn't handle it good; he didn't handle it good. I make a lot of jokes about it now, because I know now there probably wasn't as much there as I read into it. I took it personal, and it really wasn't personal.

 It's every player's personal goal, to make the All-Star team. It's a personal accomplishment guys want to make to get a chance to participate against the elite players. Every player in this league wants to be there.

 I wanted to make sure that it wasn't something personal,

 It wasn't necessarily their defense that was holding us. We just didn't make shots.

 I'm sure the town of Carver has fond memories of him. You lose something when you lose someone like that, but he's left his mark.

 We've done what we had to do, but we didn't necessarily make some of the improvements that I wanted to make.

 We knew (Green) was a good player, but we needed to keep a body on him. We wanted to push him out a little bit and make him go to the ball. He is a good player, but we didn't do our job on him like I wanted.

 It wasn't easy, ... I didn't expect to lose, didn't think that we would lose. Pex Tufvesson is a genius, no doubt about it. And we obviously didn't want to lose. And so that night I said, 'Well, now I've got to figure out what I'm going to do.'
  Dan Quayle

 In those days a concert was a personal experience. I wanted to be as close as possible to the audience, and of course big stadiums didn't enable you to do that. It wasn't my style.

 He's symbolic of what our team stands for. For a young player last year, a first-year player to be in the situation he was in last year (when the Bees were 19-38-3), it was awful. It wasn't fun to play hockey. It wasn't fun for anybody to go to the rink last year. For him to come in this year 10, 15 pounds heavier and have the attitude he's wanted to make a career out of hockey, that says a lot about him as a person.

 We had a good plan. It wasn't really anything different. We just gave them a bunch of different looks. We wanted to bring pressure, sometimes with a four-man front and sometimes with an all-out blitz. We knew they were going to make some plays. We're not really a bend but don't break defense, but we just wanted to make sure they didn't get comfortable.

 I asked them if it wasn't too much trouble, if I wasn't being too pushy, if they could execute what we were trying to do. And if it didn't make them too angry, if they also wanted to play some defense on the other end, that would be great.

 Waivers make it more difficult. No manager wants to lose a player for nothing. To lose a player after you've invested all this time and money in him is like cutting your nose off to spite your face.

 The doctors gave us the go-ahead to sign the player. They understood that it was a four-year deal with significant money. We wanted clearance and to make sure there wasn't a health risk. I would not have done the deal if the doctors didn't clear it.
