At the beginning of the tournament, we weren't playing as a team. We weren't satisfied, but just before the Canada game, we sat down and talked about just going out and playing our game. Since then, we've been building momentum, and it carried over. |
I didn't want to take a chance. |
I saw it out of the corner of my eye. I took a chance and was fortunate to score a goal. |
I think it was a late hit. I'm not very happy about that. |
If he's not the best goalie the world, he's one of the best. He was tremendous. |
It was frustrating for us. |
It was like a game of pool: I called it. |
It's a deciding time, you either win or you go home. We've got a lot of guys on the team that will probably play their last games for the national team. We want to give it our best and play a little bit longer. |
It's a professional sport. We play here together, but for two weeks we're going to be enemies. We're going to compete for a medal in the Olympics. That's going to be a little weird, but obviously, we've done it before. We're used to it. |
It's the medal round (now), so it was a big win for us. We came together as a team. |
No doubt we're playing the hottest team. It's hard, but we have to find a way to get it done. |
Now it seems as though the team's stabilized and we have a nice family here. |
Obviously he's been important to the power play. He's a right-handed shot and we don't have a lot of those. |
That's what I heard a lot in the last few years - when the team's losing, he doesn't care and doesn't have anything to do with that. But that just shows you what he's about. He never has to speak. Just watch what he did (Saturday) and that should be enough. |
That's where we go when we miss home. |
