I'd like to think we're better than any one player. I think that's the sign of a great hockey club.
(Clarke) did a great job of keeping the free agents they needed to and adding the right ones. I think we're going to be a really good team, and I'm just as excited as the fans are to get back on the ice.
I don't know how great (my performance) was. I felt like I was in the zone but you never feel good when you give up one more goal than the other team. We just got to put it behind us.

I'm good buddies with him. He's a great man. I like him a lot. Stuff will come out. I don't know any of the details on it. But I do know that he's a good man. . . . He's a very honest guy. He'll explain his side of it and I'm sure they'll get to the bottom of it.

I think I knew he was there; you always know when he's on the ice, he's such a great little player. He (Hecht) made a quick enough pass that I couldn't make the push to get over there.
