We're all in the same boat. It comes down to the day. You test it out in warm-up. You have to adapt as quickly as possible.
I never expected to finish second or third. I always skate to win.
It is pumping up our country to try to sweep this thing. It can happen.
I haven't talked to him. And probably won't talk to him.
My heart is bigger than anybody else out there. If another skater had felt like I did today, he wouldn't have been on the podium. That's just me refusing to lose.
I built up the hype I guess. But I never said I'm going to be the next Eric Heiden.
I came here to win. If you come here for any other reason than that, in my eyes you're wasting your time. Anything less than a win, second, fourth, eighth, 10th, 50th, it's all the same thing to me.
I came here for my own races. They asked me to do the team pursuit. It's not really my thing but for my team I will do it. I'm going to be my best.
He had a great skate today. That's all I have to say.
He doesn't spend much time with us, I can put it that way. Everybody has their own deal. I'm not going to say whether it's right or wrong.
