Bill Daly Game Quotations

Our league has never qualified individual records over our 90-year history, despite many significant changes in the rules and the way the game was played. (That's) including varying lengths of schedule and different rules for regular-season overtime.

We rescheduled this game because so many fans and Panthers employees have left the area, and because we want to ensure safe travels into and out of Florida for the teams and the officials. We thank the Senators and Panthers for their cooperation.

Brendan was fantastic throughout the process, ... He always put the game first.

It's certainly a decision that will benefit NHL players and participating officials. But most importantly, it's great for the game and for our fans. I think Rene realizes that what we're experiencing in the NHL right now is the game the way it was meant to be played. We're very pleased.

The game is good, the fans have embraced it, business is good. That's because of what we were able to do with the collective-bargaining agreement.
