Right now I am having them think about their skill level, what their strengths are, what their weaknesses are. Where they want to be about the mid-point of the season. Where they want to be at the end of the season. It also helps them focus.

Peter's got a good feel for the puck in the offensive part of the game. He's a give-and-go player and he knows what to do with the puck. He's got good vision and he gets his stick on the puck. He's got some good anticipation. I think his skill dictates top two lines and that's where he'll get a lot of opportunity in those areas, and we'll see what he does with it.

Nick would have done a great job at running back. It's nearly impossible to take a skill athlete, especially a senior, and put him on the offensive line. He had the body and the frame most conducive for the job.

I feel that's the mark of a leader. I think his other great skill was his ability to communicate. He understood the way few people do the power of communication. He was the best letter writer I ever came across. And when he had to give a speech, whether it was a long or short one, he pored over every one for hours, going over every word. He worked at it more than any other leader I ever came across.

I for one believe you should hike with a partner. Find someone you get along with, someone with the same skill level as you or a little better.

If it's a technical position and they've got skill and competency requirements, you can't fake that,

He's had another year of becoming more familiar with the personnel, more familiar with what he has on the offensive side of the ball, but I think Galen is one of the best coaches in the country as far as coaching on game day. He does a great job making adjustments on the fly, and that's a hard skill to do.

He was as good with the puck and as hard on the puck as he is now, relative to the skill level. He was a committed guy then. I coached his older brother and his younger brother as well and they're good people.

He has speed, skill and size, and when he gets the corner on you, he's very difficult to stop from getting to the net. And he has great hands around the net, his biggest problem is getting there. He could be a 30-goal scorer in this league, and he has NHL potential.

He has the skill and the speed, no question about it, and the shot to play at this level. He's one of those guys who has a tremendous opportunity to be on our team.

He has the skill and all of that. He's probably one of the fastest guys out there. He has that swagger already.

He needs to pitch. Even though he has the skill and ability, he needs the innings. He needs to be in certain situations. He's missed more than a couple years here on and off. He needs the endurance. He needs to be in there with bases loaded with no outs and be in all kinds of situations and adverse situations. The main thing is we want him healthy, too.

He (Moss) pretty much has all the skill you could look for in a receiver. He can do it all, intermediate routes, deep routes, makes plays after the catch. Just an exceptional athlete.

We try to get them out of their comfort zone, playing against older, bigger players, so they have to use their minds as well as their skill to succeed. It doesn't matter what sport you play in, there are always going to be kids who are talented when they're young but they never face any adversity. Sometimes, the coaches take from the kids ? say a coach who has a guy that can score five goals a game but doesn't involve his teammates ? down the road, that's a disservice to player.

We looked at all those things, and clearly the decision was unanimous.

What you do is you just hammer on that (needed) skill and you give them lots of practice in that skill over and over again. It's just like anything else. You learn it by doing it ... Then when you get to the test, you've practiced that skill so it becomes easier and easier for you to do it.

He's a special kind of player. He combines the grit and toughness with a skill level that's outstanding. He give us a player that's among the best in the country.

He's a remarkable combination of terrific skill blessed by God, a work ethic unparalleled by anybody I've been around. And his single greatest asset, in my opinion, is his pride. I've gone on record before, and I believe this, that he's the finest running back that I've seen in football.

He's got quick hands. He attacks the ball aggressively. And you have to like his speed. He's just a very effortless type of runner. When he hit that triple, it looked like he was coasting. Just real smooth. It's that young talent, that raw kind of young skill you like to see.

He's got a tremendous opportunity and quite a challenge. But work has never been an issue for him. . . . He's been a diligent worker. He's been a quick study. He's spent a lot of time with the offensive line as well as the skill people.

He's easily one of the top two players who have played here, if not the best. Not just because of athletic skill but what he brings to the game. He's a hard worker every day. He goes home late, does it in the classroom. He's kind of a throwback to the 1960s, when most all kids were like that. He reminds me a lot of how I used to approach the game.

He's got the skill and everything else he needs to be one of the top goalies in the league. I believe he's really sharp. I never have to tell him anything twice. He's got that visualization.

His skill may not improve but just learning from experience of playing at that level, you would think physically he would mature.

His skill level is good at the college level and his speed is at the top end of the college level. His physical presence is great. I think he's going to have a shot to play in the NHL because of his speed and physical power. He's got a huge heart and has a willingness to play game in and game out.

His skill level has improved because of his improved strength. Demetrius, he shoots it fairly well from 15-foot range, he's very effective around the basket and he's done a very good job defensively blocking shots.

His skill level has improved. A year ago he was coming along. Two years ago he was shooting from long range. Now he's shooting the short and mid-range shot, so he's really a scoring threat.

His skill level has improved a ton from last year. He's always been able to go by people. Now, he's added so much more to his game. It's to the point where we feel if we can get him isolated (one on one against defender), he's unstoppable.

His skill level, and my love for having big guys who can shoot, made the marriage work. He plays and shoots and passes the way I like our big guys to do it to make our offense and defense work.

There are many people with great manufacturing skill sets in this region and we have utilized the same manufacturing techniques and supply infrastructure from the old business to augment our knowledge of science to create new technologies.

(Haley)'s looking really good. She has the ball control and the skill to score.

There are still concerns at both the top and the bottom.

Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.

I would say our skill positions have some depth. We have some good, athletic kids.

Joe has the ability to make something out of nothing, and it's hard to account for skill like that. That makes him an effective offensive player.

It is a great skill and it is not gambling. Most people do not have the strength to sit and wait for cards.

I think that he did a very professional job in a very, very precarious time. I don't know if we have another board member that can rise to the occasion. It takes a little bit of skill to do that job. But we all have to work together and hopefully we'll have more checks and balances than we did before.

I think the fans lost interest starting 10 years ago when Gary Bettman came in, and I think everyone who has watched the game has seen the game decline not only in popularity, but the actual game itself has declined in skill and excitement and fan entertainment value. Something's got to be done. We don't have a TV contract because it's 'a bad game.

I thought the refs were pretty consistent, so we're fine with that. There's certainly, I think, too much contact for a high school basketball game and I think that needs to be addressed because if you're not as strong physically, then you get leveraged under the basket or out of bounds. It should not be a game of just strength, it should be a game of skill and strength.

I think we're going to approach it like any other week. Their offensive skill kids are very good football players. They do a good job spreading the ball around.

I thought our effort on Wednesday night was excellent. We played another well executed game in both skill and game plan. The energy level was pretty high, and the team play was strong. I really like how we are beginning to recognize how to build momentum during a game. Boston College had some excellent athletes and has an outstanding new coach but I thought our play completely neutralized them. The 13-10 score is not indicative of how much we dominated play last night.

I think we will be better up front, but our skill position people will have to evolve during the season.
