The four games we've played with Miami this season have all been determined in the last five minutes. That's a positive sign.

Those are difference-makers. Those are plays we need to finish.

The penalties were an embarrassment. That's not hockey. There was no flow to the game.

My generation, our generation, isn't so much concerned with where you're from. We don't have as much of a connection, a feel for the politics of our ancestors ... we are losing the idea of separate identities between the North and South.

The fact is that they're playing on the edge. I'm happy that they're playing on the edge, but they have to keep from going over the edge.

I don't hold that against them. Most of them aren't doing their laundry, either.

It's almost unfair to expect a high percentage of people to get to the polls, given that we're brand new to caring about this, and we're brand new to managing our time. A lot of people take 10 years to get used to that. A lot of people never get used to that.
