I would rather tame a tiger than try to paint stripes on one. I would rather have (that ability to play on the edge) in a player. It's not a negative. It's a gift he has. -Walt Kyle

I was real disappointed with the play in the third period. I was certainly unhappy that we didn't generate more offense and put some pressure on their net. That's not the way to [win] against a good opponent.

We have a chance to compete for a medal and only four other (American) teams have won one of those. In my opinion, that would be a solid accomplishment. But am I disappointed that we aren't competing for a gold or silver? Absolutely. That was our target.
