I played with Keith in Phoenix when he was pretty heavy and he scored 50 goals. I've seen Keith play at a certain weight and be pretty darn successful.

The Phoenix game the other night had 27 penalties in it, so that's pretty much the whole game somebody's on the power play. Believe it or not, you almost have got to forget about the score and just try and play the game as best you can with the new rule changes. I know that's hard to think about it that way, but you've got to teach yourself to adjust to the new rules as quickly as possible.

He said 'Guys, I apologize for the situation I put you in, I put everyone in a bad spot a little bit. We didn't expect much from him, we were just happy he was back.

Unfortunately, I'm one of the guys that gets too emotional. So I've got to learn to pull the reins back a little bit. Sometimes I say things I shouldn't say. I'm going to try and get better in that area, not yell at the refs too much.

All three goals came on turnovers. They took advantage of us. We've got to find a way to not turn the puck over.

He knows how much we expect out of him every night, and he's been great on and off the ice for us.

There's nothing you can really put a finger on, except preparation. For whatever reason, maybe we feel too good about ourselves. We shouldn't. I think we get out of our element a little bit. Then we try to do too much.

He looked good. We had a pretty short practice but I thought he looked really good.

I'm not going to say it was the prettiest game, but I think the third period, we played solid. 'Sandy' was the key to the game. He made some huge saves for us.
