It is so, so unfair to paint him with the brush that he's responsible for me being here, because he's not. Todd wasn't the reason I'm sitting here today. Neither was [forward] Brendan [Morrison]. There's always a number of reasons why. We all have to take some responsibility.

It's been a very difficult couple of days, as you can imagine. I wasn't able to accomplish the job I was brought here for. I had a vision for this club and it included a Stanley Cup and a parade.

Only if it's the wrong message. I know it wasn't wrong.

I haven't been contacted by any team.

They had a lot of jump at the start of the game and they didn't let us have the puck.

I felt Dave could have gone two or three ways with this decision. Hockey is a difficult business. I think he could have made a strong decision in a number of ways but I'm comfortable where he's gone.

I am disappointed by how things ended here but I'm certainly nothing but thankful of the time that myself and my family have had here.

They got the early power-play goal, which was unlucky on a deflection, and we maybe panicked a little bit. When you're panicking and not playing with a lot of jump, that's not a good combination to have against a hard-working Minnesota team.

There are only 30 jobs in the league. It will be a privilege to be considered for any of the jobs. I'm interested in them all.
