He's a leader and a true professional that does a lot for me and the team on and off the floor. It's a credit to my team that I'm even going, so it's fitting that they are there as well.

To add players like Murray and Blasdell is great for us. We're like the NFL in that every weekend is a dogfight. Adding experienced players who know what it takes to win is invaluable.

I've taken this thing on full time, so I take the losses a little harder these days, more than I did when I had to go back to a 9-to-5 job on Monday. But I'm going to force myself to enjoy this.

We've talked to him about what he's going to see (this year). He has to expect maybe he's not going to get as many points as last year because a lot of teams will focus on him.

They came in here a desperate team. They played desperate and we didn't. We have to look into the mirror.

We're very excited. There is a little bit of animosity, a little rivalry between Calgary and Arizona because of the amount of times we've played during the season and obviously what happened in the playoffs. So, we're excited for the challenge. It's still early in the season and to have a game like this early on is great for our team.

Dan is such a big body and he's learning the game so well.

People don't realize that in lacrosse you need an even number of left-handers and right-handers. Matt is a lefty who is very fast and has a lot of skills.

We've talked about what we have to do to be in the upper echelon in the West, and beating Calgary is one of those things. We haven't completed 60 minutes in a game and we need to get four full quarters in.
