Easy night. We frustrated them all night long. It wasn't like we were just hanging on to win. I thought we dominated all night.

George has got a lot of respect for me and I have a lot for George, that if I wanted to go somewhere else to try and win, I would let him know before then. I don't think we're at that point yet, really.

He's trying to implement some European fashion ideas here that just haven't seemed to hit home yet.

I feel like a kid again. I also think our wives are happy we're out of the house.

I made a joke before the game that Mathieu Biron turned our power play around a little bit yesterday and he's shooting the puck hard. He got a big goal for us tonight and he's doing some really good things out there for us.

I think they took the wind out of our sails when they scored that goal after we dominated the first period. It gave them a little bit of confidence and we got into penalty trouble. There's not much more that you can say about that.

I thought I had it jammed between my body and the glove. I didn't see it and I thought I was going to hold it long enough for the whistle and then all of a sudden I saw it trickle in. The puck didn't go my way on that play.

I'm as bad as anybody for getting upset when things aren't going good. I've learned over the years that you can't beat yourself up. Or it can turn into a really long year. This season, there are going to be some growing pains with the team. You have to be patient, play your game and not try to do too much out there.

I'm not playing but I know Thomas is going to see a lot more shots. The Czechs like to pass the puck until they get a quality scoring chance while Canada is a traditional North American team that likes to get the puck on net and crash the net.

I'm very excited. This is the only team I've known, and I'm very optimistic about where the organization is going and if we could ever win a Stanley Cup here during my time.
|
I'm very impressed with the way Mo is progressing. He's been terrific. He's very poised with the puck and physical. Other than goaltender, defense is the toughest position. And it seems he's made the jump.

I've got a lot of respect for Eddie Belfour. (But) I didn't want to see our guy, get a blocker in the face.
|
If it's a long process to turn things around here then I probably would look at going somewhere else, whether it's traded at the deadline or next year as a free agent.
|
It was very disappointing. We had a chance to make it 2-0, but we couldn't capitalize. I was seeing everything great, and if you can see it, you can stop it.

It will be my final Olympics and I am looking forward to it. We have a tough start with the Czech Republic and Canada, but anything is possible. You saw what Belarus did in 2002 (when it beat Sweden). Maybe we can do the same thing.
