A lot of people say things to us. We're so young and, I guess, cute. We want people to watch our sport and understand it.

They've isolated us. There's something about bears. People see them as cute and cuddly.

It had little trains and teddy bears on it, ... It was cute.

It was big news for us because we're just getting started, ... Viva Las Vegas.

I think it's good. It puts us on a stage with every other sport that's major. People who know hockey know there really is not a place in hockey for steroids. I'm sure there are things you want to enhance your performance, but I think at the end of the day you'll see we are clean.

Most people are not coming to the game because they want to support cruelty to animals. They are simply unaware.
