I feel terrible for him. It's not an impressive way to play the game when we give up all those scoring chances in the first 10 minutes.
I feel much fresher than I did when I left the game a year and a half ago, ... I've probably shot myself in the foot in the past being over-zealous with my physical play. This year I want to try to find areas on the ice where I don't get bounced around as much.
I'm disappointed because I had an opportunity to win the game for us. As one of the leaders on the hockey club, I expect myself to put the puck in the net when I get the opportunity.
It's disappointing because you sit there at the end of the game and the other team is looking over at you and laughing. It's not a fun thing, that's for sure.
I hit a guy. I didn't hit him with my knee. I don't think I did anything in the wrong. . . . I always look out for my own battles. If there's things that come within the game that they don't like, obviously I'll stick up for myself. I don't need anybody else to stick up for me.
It's the game of hockey. He's playing hard for his team, I'm playing hard for my team, and things like that are going to happen.
