There's No Doubt I'm Emotional.

I Promise To Play For The Logo On The Front, Not The Name On The Back

The Biggest Thing For Me Is The Passion That I've Always Had For Hockey. I Remember Growing Up, No Matter What I Did In Life, My Parents Always Told Me To Try To Do My Best At It And Be My Best. I Can Say Going Through Different Things That Passion Is The Most Important Part. It's Not Skills Or Talent Or Any Of That Stuff.

I Want To Play As Soon As Possible, You Want To Play But I Don't Pick And Choose. It's Not My Job.

It's Tough, It's Not The Scenario That We Wanted For Sure. I Thought Our Desperation Was There, We Worked Hard, But It Was One Game, A Lot Can Happen, They're A Good Team, And Unfortunately We Didn't Win. We Had Some Bad Bounces, And In One Game Those Make A Big Difference, And Unfortunately It Didn't Go Our Way. But If We Play Hard Like That, We Play Desperate Like That And Control The Puck The Way We Did Down Low, I Like Our Chances Against Any Team.

I Was Anxious To Get Started, There Was So Much Anticipation. I Wanted To Get In The Routine Of Playing Games. It Was Just Nice To Be On A Team, Not Competing Against These Guys In Camp [but] Trying To Work Together To Win.
