That would be nice. That's a big milestone. You never know. You have to stay healthy and play well enough.

Hopefully I'll be OK. I'm going to get some good sleep - I just feel tired now. We'll see.

There's no excuses. We knew exactly what they were going to do, and still they scored four (power-play) goals. You can't win games like that.

You just have to be careful. It seems like some games they are calling everything and the next game they are not. We just have to be more careful about it, especially in a tie game, you can't take any stupid penalties.

I've played a lot of hockey games, and I've never seen anything like that. It was amazing.

It was always my dream to play in the NHL. And this organization gave me a chance to play.

Hey, the Lightning is our bread. This is our family. Yes, it will be real unbelievable to play in the Olympics, but when we get back, I don't think we will allow ourselves to lose focus. The Lightning is the most important thing to all of us.

Phil drafted me and he and Jacques me gave the chance to play for this team.

This time could be more difficult. Last time, the travel was not that bad. The time change was not an issue. It felt like just a continuation for the NHL season. This time will be different because the Olympics are so far away.
