I interviewed [Tampa Bay goalie] Sean Burke the morning before a [preseason game] start, something he normally doesn't do, |
I thought I made a mistake because I don't think a coach from another team should be criticizing a player from another team, ... But that (elbow) was cheap. There was no honor in it, and that's (what) our game was built on. |
The arena was only half full for a preseason opener, ... I was surprised because you think of Detroit as a hockey town. |
The NHL, historically, has done a bad job of marketing players or the league. |
This game is not special to me, ... I don't give a [expletive] about Tampa. |
