I didn't think it was that severe of a hit. Glad it's only one game. ... He is our catalyst and we need to step up collectively as a group to make up for his absence.

You hit the elbow and I'll rake the wrists.

I see everything in his game. He's still one of the players who provides you with the mold about how to play the game.

I don't think it's scary. I think it makes the game a lot more breathtaking, a lot more urgent for both teams.

He's been put on the concussion program again, but the first one was so severe I think the program may go longer. There's no set time on when he can be back or when he can even resume practice. Symptom-free for a week doesn't necessarily mean he can have contact again. That could take weeks.

We played lousy. I think they were just not up for the game.
