The whole country is watching and everyone is counting on us. There's also that pressure in the dressing room so, obviously, it's going to be a huge game for us.

The biggest change is you're eating pasta at 11 a.m. in the morning.

It's a great feeling knowing the Islanders have signed me to a contract and consider me an important part of their future. Last year's training camp with the Islanders was a good start for me. I learned what I needed to do to make it in the NHL. I took a lot of that with me when I returned to the Rockets and when I played for Team Canada.

I was pretty nervous until I got my first shift.

We've got a good chance of winning if we play the way that we have to and not give teams a whole lot.

The whole country is watching and everyone is counting on us. I think everyone is going to be disappointed if we don't end up getting what we want.
