Antero Niittymaki Good Quotations

He was really good with Joni and still is. Me too. I mean he?s been (in the U.S.) for 10 years or something. He knows a lot of stuff and he was always willing to help us if we needed anything. It?s really good.

I was kind of hoping he was going to make a move. At the last second I saw he was going low blocker. I don't know. It was a pretty good shot.

We have a very good defense and tonight we played very strong.

We've struggled at home, so this was really good for our confidence.

Feels good to get 20 wins the first year. We still have games left, and I wouldn't mind having a few more.

It's good to see where we are. Canada is the best team on paper, so it's a really important win for us. It gives a lot of confidence.

It's a long way to the final and we have to play game by game. In this tournament there are a lot of good teams, so anything can happen.

They didn't have a whole lot of great scoring chances. It's kind of an easy game. There were a couple of good saves in the third period, but other than that, it was pretty quiet.

We spent a lot of time together and it was good. That's about the only good thing about being away for so long.

It's always fun to play against Ottawa, the two best teams in the league. I think it's a good sign when you play good against good teams. Both games (this year) we played really well against them.
