Jim Rutherford Team Quotations

Mark is an accomplished goal scorer and playmaker who will be an asset to the Hurricanes' forward lines. His playoff experience will provide added leadership for our team as we look forward to the postseason.

I think our team has been very disciplined in both games,

Which is not good enough. Then it will depend on how the team does.

Erik has performed well for the Hurricanes and we are happy to have him signed, ... He led his team in Germany to the league championship last season and also performed well for coach Laviolette at the World Championships.

The nice thing for us is we have a team that Peter has really brought together with his team-building and coaching style, and we have to be careful with the chemistry of the team, and Doug Weight is a perfect fit for us. He can fit into any situation on any line.

He put in the systems on the first day of camp and started to work on drills that were going to come up in game situations. I think our team has been prepared very well for the way the game's being played.
