I think they were holding the fact I haven't played in the last two World Cups against me. I'm a lot better player than my points indicate. I'm one of the guys that have (got) the USA to where it is today. |
I was never angry at the way I was hit. I think it was a very clean hit, actually a great hit by Denis, |
I'm a little shook up. When you take two shots, point blank to the face like I have in the past two months, it's a pretty scary thing. I have to see how the neurological stuff turns out and how my body reacts before I do anything. |
I'm an L.A. kind of guy. Those who know me will understand that. |
I'm mulling over a lot of things right now and I'm not ruling out retirement, |
I'm trying to calm him down a little bit. He goes to a different level than I do, ... I don't think I would ever single out one specific group of people and demean them. But hey, I've lived by the media and I've died by the media. |
I've done a lot for USA hockey. This is really my last chance to be in the Olympics and they took it away from me. |
If I can help Bob Probert in any way, you know I'm going to do it. There's probably a lot of money sitting in the PA bank account right now that could really help him. |
It was a fluky goal they (the Wings) scored on the game-winner, ... But they're a good team. |

It would be a travesty if I'm not. I know they want a youth movement, and they need to have one, but it'd be disrespectful of the guys who have gotten Team USA to this point internationally. |
It's (bad) that we lost. We worked hard. We deserved a better fate. I think we showed them that we're going to be a hard team to play against in this building. |
It's a huge win in that it allows us to see where we are at this time of the year, ... We played a very controlled game. Our defense was very good with the exception of four minutes in the second period. |
It's a lack of desperation and a lack of effort. |
It's a shame. These guys have been, for the last 12 to 15 years, the catalyst for what the league is all about. |
