My expectations are high for myself. But I want to keep even keel. The start has been great for me, but I want to keep it going. I don't want it to stop. Even if I don't score goals, I want to keep doing what I have to do to help the team win.

My arms are shorter than a lot of people. I really had to reach. It took a lucky bounce.

He's a big-time player and he got a big-time goal for their team. We couldn't buy one tonight.

He's got to be one of the top five players in the game.

Maybe that's something new I should start doing.

I was pretty shocked. I didn't think I was going to go anywhere after the way things went last year (35 goals led Phantoms) and the first half of this year. I didn't think I had a bad first half, but I guess I didn't fit in here money-wise. I didn't think that they would have to move anybody. It's unfortunate that it had to be me.

We're chasing the playoffs. We have to be better.

We got behind the eight ball and against a team like that it's tough to catch up.

To become a winning team, you have to learn to win, no matter what the situation is. This is going to show what we're made of and who wants to become a winner and move the organization forward.

We beat ourselves again. We've got a great team, but we have to put our work boots and our work hats on and do the digging in. We're not doing that for 60 minutes.

We worked hard tonight. Finally, pucks are starting to find their way in. It's a good feeling.

When I was younger I wasn't a big listener, ... But as you mature you get smarter. Hitch was right and now I'm listening to him and bringing it to the rink.

The puck was laying there and I just batted it in. This is a huge two points for us. Every game now is the biggest game of the year.

We got lucky and I finally found the back of the net.

There's something about (playing) this team, I don't know. I'm excited we got the win. The goals are a bonus.

There's something about (playing) this team, I don't know.

That's important. We want to be a winning franchise, and to do that, first you've got to have a winning season.

They saw a wounded duck and went after us.

It was a great save, but (the shot) went right into his glove.

Intensity like that is what we need. They're a good team, (but) we controlled a lot of the game tonight.

It helps to find your way on the team.

If I keep working hard and doing the right things on the ice, hopefully I can come back.

I do believe this is a good team.

Their lack of communication surprised me. I put my head down and was going to start to come back, but the puck was laying there. I just turned quick, and fortunately Gags was there.
